Huntington Governor. The Huntington H-11 Governor was a two-seat cabin monoplane  with a high, cantilever wing built in the United States and first flown around 1930. Three were completed.

Design and Development

The Governor was a side-by-side, cantilever high wing monoplane, designed for business or pleasure. It was unusually aerodynamically clean as its cantilever wing, mounted on top of the fuselage, had no external struts. The wing had a straight leading edge and tapered out to blunted tips.

The fuselage structure was rectangular in section but its  decking was polyangular. The Governor prototype was powered by a  Warner Scarab seven cylinder radial engine, though the  Chevrolet D-4 (later called the Martin 4-333) air-cooled, inverted four cylinder inline or  Kinner B-5 five cylinder radial were options. Pilot and passenger sat side by side behind it in an underwing, windowed cabin accessed by large doors. The tail was conventional with a tailplane, braced from below, on top of the fuselage and a cropped triangular fin and rounded balanced rudder.

The main undercarriage was a split-axle design with the axles from the fuselage central underside. Their outer ends were mounted on V-struts from the lower fuselage longerons. There was a small and semi-enclosed tailwheel.

The date of the Governor's first flight is not known. The prototype was largely complete by the time of the August 1930 Aero Digest article, though its photo shows instrument panel gaps. Three were built, the last a Kinner-powered H-11K, but their later activities are not known.

Seti Hydropower Project
Seti Hydropower Station is a run of river type with installed capacity of 1.5 MW and design generation of 9.8 GWh consisting of 3 units each 0.5 MW. It is located at Nadipur, Pokhara and was commissioned in 1985 AD with assistance from Government of People’s Republic of China and Government of Nepal. The power canal for this power station is jointly used for irrigation purposes looked after by Department of Irrigation and hence, the operation of this power station is affected by irrigation as well. The cumulative generation of Seti HPS has reached 254.77 GWh till 2011/12 from its first run. The station has generated 11.62 GWh in FY 2010/11 and 10.41 GWh in FY 2011/12 with decrease of 10.37%. The station contributed 0.25% of the total energy in the INPS in 2011/12.

Edward V. Gant. Edward Victor Gant (1918 – July 4, 1985) was an American civil engineering professor and academic administrator who served as provost (1965–1974) and three-time acting president of the University of Connecticut (July–October 1969; 1972–1973; 1978–1979).

Born in Ethridge, Tennessee, Gant earned a bachelor's degree from Vanderbilt University in 1939 and a master's degree in 1940 from the California Institute of Technology. He joined UConn in 1942 and was promoted to full professor of civil engineering in 1947.

From 1957 through 1974, Gant held various positions, including assistant dean and acting dean of the School of Engineering, acting head of the civil engineering department, and provost and academic vice president. He stepped down as provost in 1974 to return to full-time teaching. He worked at UConn for a total of forty-three years. In addition to these leadership roles, Gant chaired the Mansfield Board of Education from 1949 to 1953.

The Edward V. Gant Building, a  science building on UConn's main campus in Storrs, is named in his honor. The Edward Victor Gant Scholarship for graduate and undergraduate students was established in his honor.

Gant died in 1985. He was survived by his wife, Margaret Regen Gant, who died in 2001, and their two children.

Howmar 12. The Howmar 12, sometimes written Howmar Twelve, is an American sailing dinghy that was designed by Craig V. Walters of Sparkman & Stephens as a one-design racer, trainer and day sailer and first built in 1983.

Production
The design was Sparkman & Stephens' design #2405. It was built by Howmar Boats Inc.  and its successor company, The New Howmar Boats Corp, in the United States, starting in 1983. A total of 200 boats were completed, but it is now out of production.

Design
The Howmar 12 is a recreational sailboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim and foam flotation. It has a fractional sloop with anodized aluminum spars and a loose-footed mainsail, with an adjustable outhaul. The hull features a nearly plumb stem, a vertical transom, a transom-hung rudder controlled by a tiller and a retractable centerboard. Both the centerboard and rudder are made from polyurethane. The boat displaces  and is self-bailing.

The boat has a draft of  with the centerboard extended and  with it retracted, allowing beaching or ground transportation on a trailer or car roof rack.

The design's sharp prow is intended to cut though waves and the design is capable of planing. It incorporates dry storage in a bow compartment.

Factory options included a boom vang, a hinged mast step, hiking straps and a mount for an outboard motor.

Operational history
In a 1994 review Richard Sherwood wrote, "roomy for its size, the Howmar Twelve is a racer, trainer, and day sailer. The hull’s light weight makes for easy cartopping."

Ripple20. Ripple20 is a set of vulnerabilities discovered in 2020 in a software library that implemented a TCP/IP stack. The security concerns were discovered by JSOF, which named the collective vulnerabilities for how one company's code became embedded into numerous products. The software library was created around 1997 and had been implemented by many manufacturers of online devices.

Description 
Ripple20 is a set of 19 vulnerabilities discovered in 2020 in a software library developed by the Cincinnati-based company Treck Inc., which implemented a TCP/IP stack.

History 
The first release of Treck's library was around 1997. Treck had also worked with Elmic Systems, which created a fork of the library when the companies ended their collaboration. In September 2019, JSOF researchers analyzed a device containing code from the library and discovered it had vulnerabilities. Further analysis determined that the code originated from Treck's library, which had been widely implemented by numerous manufacturers. The disclosure of the vulnerabilities was made in June 2020. Ripple20 was chosen as the name for the set of vulnerabilities based on the disclosure year and the idea that the problems "rippled" through the supply chain from one company. It is difficult to identify all affected devices, because manufacturers may not realize that the library was used in one of their components.

Caesium sulfide. Cesium sulfide is an inorganic salt with a chemical formula Cs2S. It is a strong alkali in aqueous solution. In the air, cesium sulfide emits rotten egg smelling hydrogen sulfide.

Production 
Similar to sodium sulfide, anhydrous cesium sulfide can be produced by reacting cesium and sulfur in THF. It needs ammonia or naphthalene to react.

By dissolving hydrogen sulfide into cesium hydroxide solution, it will produce cesium bisulfide, then it will produce cesium sulfide too.。
