# Navy Expeditionary Medal

The Navy Expeditionary Medal is a military award of the United States Navy which was established in August 1936.

## Award criteria

The General Orders of the Department of the Navy which established the medal states, "The medal will be awarded to the officers and enlisted men of the Navy who were confirmed to have landed on foreign territory and engaged in operations against armed opposition, or operated under circumstances which, after full consideration, shall be deemed to merit special recognition and for which no service or campaign medal has been awarded. The Navy Expeditionary Medal is retroactively authorized to February 12, 1874."

## Design

The medal was designed by A. A. Weinman and features a sailor beaching a craft carrying Marines, an officer, and a US flag with the word "Expeditions" above. On the reverse of both the Marine Corps Expeditionary Medal and Navy Expeditionary Medal, in the center of the bronze medallion an eagle is shown alight upon an anchor; the eagle is facing to the left and the flukes of the anchor are to the right. The eagle is grasping sprigs of laurel, which extend beyond the anchor in both directions. Above the eagle are the words UNITED STATES MARINE CORPS or UNITED STATES NAVY presented as an arch. Above the laurel are the words FOR SERVICE presented horizontally. The eagle is the American bald eagle and represents the United States, the anchor alludes to Marine Corps or Navy service, and the laurel is symbolic of victory and achievement.

## Marine Corps eligibility

The medal is one of the few Navy awards which are not concurrently bestowed to the United States Marine Corps, as Marine Corps personnel are eligible for the Marine Corps Expeditionary Medal as an equivalent award. In addition, since 1961, some Navy commands have permitted service members to choose between the Navy Expeditionary Medal and the Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal for participation in certain operations. Both awards may not be bestowed simultaneously for the same action.

## Additional awards

Additional awards of the Navy Expeditionary Medal are denoted by service stars.

## Wake Island Device

The Wake Island Device is authorized for those service members who were awarded the Navy Expeditionary Medal through the defense of Wake Island. As the vast majority of the defenders of Wake Island were U.S. Marines, the Navy Expeditionary Medal with the Wake Island device is one of the rarest awards in the U.S. military history, with only 68 eligible recipients.

# Lansweeper

Lansweeper is an IT discovery & inventory platform which delivers insights into the status of users, devices, and software within IT environments. This platform inventories connected IT devices, enabling organizations to centrally manage their IT infrastructure. Lansweeper's automated processes identify and compile a list of connected devices, including computers, routers, servers, and printers. It furnishes device-specific information covering installed software, applied updates & patches, and user details.

## History

Lansweeper was founded in Belgium in 2004.
In October 2020, Lansweeper announced the acquisition of Fing, a network scanning and device recognition platform.
In June 2021, Lansweeper received a €130 million investment from Insight Partners.

## Description

The main purpose of Lansweeper derives from a discovery phase of sweeping round a local area network (LAN) and maintaining an inventory of the hardware assets and software deployed on those assets. Reports from the inventory enable complete hardware and software reports on the devices and can be used to identify problems. Lansweeper can collect information on all Windows, Linux and macOS devices as well as IP-addressable network appliances.
The software incorporates an integrated ticket-based Help Desk module used to assist issues to be captured and tracked through to completion. There is also a software module that allows Lansweeper to orchestrate software updates on Windows computers.
The Lansweeper central inventory database must be located on either an SQL Local DB or SQL Server database on a Microsoft Windows machine. Lansweeper claims that while a minimum default configuration can be supported by placing all its components on a single server, the application has the capability to scale up to hundreds of thousands of devices. While Lansweeper can be set up agentless, it may be recommended to use agents for more complex configurations.
Lansweeper has a freeware version of the product, but it is limited in the number of devices available and functionality provided unless appropriate commercial licenses are purchased.
# ActiveVFP

ActiveVFP (also known as AVFP) is a server-side scripting framework designed for Web development to produce dynamic Web pages. Similar to PHP, but using the native Visual Foxpro (VFP) language and database (or other databases like Microsoft SQL and MySQL), ActiveVFP can also be used in Model-View-Controller (MVC) web applications as well as RESTful API. ActiveVFP is completely free and open source and does not require the purchase of Microsoft Visual FoxPro or any additional software.
ActiveVFP was originally created in 2001. The main implementation of ActiveVFP is now produced by the Foxpro Community at activevfp.codeplex.com and serves as the formal reference to ActiveVFP. ActiveVFP is free software released under the MIT License.
ActiveVFP is unique among server-side web languages and frameworks because it has a database and database functionality built into the language.

## Syntax

ActiveVFP uses the native Visual Foxpro language as it exists in the latest version produced by Microsoft, Visual FoxPro 9 SP2. The multi-threaded VFP runtime, vfp9t.dll, is used instead of the regular desktop version of the VFP runtime.
Using ActiveVFP, the VFP compiler only executes VFP code within its delimiters. Anything outside its delimiters is not processed by VFP. The most common delimiters are ASP-style short forms <% or <%= and %>. <% %> executes a FoxPro code block and <%= %> prints the variable out immediately. The purpose of all these delimiters is to separate VFP code from non-VFP code, including HTML.
The main objects available to ActiveVFP for web programming are: oRequest, oResponse, and oSession (and all of the objects that have been available in Classic Active Server Pages (ASP)). These objects are used entirely within Visual FoxPro to accomplish web programming with FoxPro.
The FoxPro language contains commands quite similar to other programming languages such as Basic. Loops include do, if, while, for, else commands in a usage easily understood by anyone familiar with other programming languages. Commands take the form of "command" and "endcommand". The language also has extensive database manipulation and indexing commands.
Like PHP, ActiveVFP takes advantage of automatic memory Garbage Collection (GC) and Dynamic/Weak Typing, boosting programmer productivity.
In addition to “scripting” mode, ActiveVFP offers Model-View-Controller (MVC) design as well. The Controller consists of FoxPro class code located in a Foxpro .prg file. Output can consist of .avfp views, JSON, and others, similar to other modern MVC implementations. The Model can be DBF files or other back end databases.

## Examples

* VFP code embedded in HTML code to open table and list records
* VFP Controller code for an MVC web application
# Renny Cushing

Robert Reynolds Cushing Jr. (July 20, 1952 – March 7, 2022) was an American politician who was a member of the New Hampshire House of Representatives as a Democrat from the town of Hampton. First elected in 1996, Cushing represented Rockingham District 21. He served nine non-consecutive terms (previously representing Rockingham Districts 14, 15 and 22).

## Early life and education

Cushing was born in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, to Robert R. Cushing Sr and Marie (Mulcahy) Cushing. At the age of 15, he spoke at the State House and argued in favor of lowering the voting age from 21 to 18.
He was raised in Hampton, New Hampshire with his six younger siblings and graduated from Winnacunnet High School in Hampton. He also later served as the elected moderator of the Winnacunnet School District from 1993.
He briefly attended Granite State College, before dropping out and working a number of miscellaneous jobs across the US as well as Canada, including as a sanitation worker, a miner, and a farmworker. He then settled back in New Hampshire and took up welding and carpentry.

## Political career

Cushing's first foray into civic engagement was in the 1970s, when he was involved with the Clamshell Alliance, an anti-nuclear coalition that opposed construction of the Seabrook Station Nuclear Power Plant in nearby Seabrook, New Hampshire. In June 1988, Cushing's father was murdered by a disgruntled off-duty policeman in his own house. He became involved with the trial of his father’s murderer and began advocating to abolish capital punishment. In 1998, he became executive director of Murder Victims’ Families for Reconciliation.
During the 2019–20 legislative session, Cushing led the effort in the New Hampshire General Court to approve legislation abolishing the death penalty, including successful votes in the House and Senate to override Governor Chris Sununu's veto.
On November 19, 2020, the New Hampshire House Democrats chose Cushing to lead them during the 2021–22 legislative session of the General Court.

## Health and death

Cushing was diagnosed with stage four prostate cancer in 2020. He took a leave of absence as Democratic leader for health reasons on March 2, 2022, and died from the disease and complications of COVID-19 at his home in Hampton, New Hampshire, five days later, on March 7, at the age of 69. He was survived by his wife Kristie Conrad, whom he married in 1989, as well as his three daughters: Marie Ellen, Elizabeth Agnes and Grace Bridget Cushing.
# Ottoman–Iranian War (1743–1746)

The Ottoman–Iranian War of 1743–1746 or Ottoman-Persian War of 1743-1746 was fought between the Ottoman Empire and Afsharid Iran.

## Background

Persia attempted to ratify the Treaty of Constantinople, by demanding that the Ja'fari, also known as the Imamiyyah was to be accepted as a fifth legal sect of Islam.
In 1743, Nader Shah declared war on the Ottoman Empire. He demanded the surrender of Baghdad. The Persians had captured Baghdad in 1623 and Mosul in 1624, but the Ottomans had recaptured Mosul in 1625 and Baghdad in 1638. The Treaty of Zuhab in 1639 between the Ottoman Empire and the Safavid Empire had resulted in peace for 85 years. During the fall of the Safavid dynasty, Russia and the Ottoman Empire agreed to divide the northwest and the Caspian region of Persia, but with the advent of Nader Shah, the Russians and the Turks withdrew from the region. Nader Shah waged war against the Ottomans from 1730 to 1736 but it ended with a stalemate. Nader Shah afterwards turned east and declared war on the Mughal Empire and invaded India, in order to refund his wars against the Ottomans.

## The war

Nader Shah dreamt of an empire which would stretch from the Indus to the Bosphorus. Therefore he raised an army of 200,000, which consisted largely of rebellious Central Asian tribesmen, and he planned to march towards Constantinople, but after he learnt that the Ottoman ulema was preparing for a holy war against Persia, he turned eastwards. He captured Kirkuk, Arbil and besieged Mosul on 14 September 1743. The siege lasted for 40 days. The Pasha of Mosul, Hajji Hossein Al Jalili, successfully defended Mosul and Nader Shah was forced to retreat. The offensive was halted due to revolts in Persia (1743–1744) over high taxes. Hostilities also spilled into Georgia, where Prince Givi Amilakhvari employed an Ottoman force in a futile attempt to undermine the Persian influence and dislodge Nader's Georgian allies, Princes Teimuraz and Erekle.
In July 1744, Nader Shah resumed his offensive and unsuccessfully besieged Kars, but was forced to return to Dagestan to suppress a revolt. He returned afterwards and routed an Ottoman army at the battle of Kars in August 1745. The war disintegrated. Nader Shah grew insane and started to punish his own subjects, which led to a revolt from early 1745 to June 1746. In 1746 peace was made. The boundaries were unchanged and Baghdad remained in Ottoman hands. Nader Shah dropped his demand for Ja'fari recognition. The Porte was pleased and dispatched an ambassador but before he could arrive, Nader Shah was assassinated by his own officers.
