Naval outlying landing field. An outlying landing field (OLF) is a satellite airfield, associated with a seaborne component of the United States military. When associated with the United States Navy (who operate the majority), they are known as naval outlying landing fields (NOLFs) or naval auxiliary landing fields (NALFs); when associated with United States Marine Corps, they are known as Marine Corps outlying fields (MCOFs) or Marine Corps auxiliary landing fields (MCALFs).

Having no based units or aircraft, and minimal facilities, an outlying landing field is used as a low-traffic location for flight training, without the risks and distractions of other traffic at a naval air station or other airport.

James Kennedy (engineer). James Kennedy (13 January 1797 – 25 September 1886) was a Scottish locomotive and marine engineer. He was born in the village of Gilmerton near Edinburgh, Scotland.

Career

Early years
He was apprenticed at the age of 13 to a millwright near Dalkeith, where he remained for five years.  He spent some years working as a millwright, working with winding and pumping engines at several places before moving to Laverock Hall (now Larkhall) near Hamilton, where he was employed to erect pumping and winding engines of his own design.

Robert Stephenson and Company
In Liverpool to supervise the installation of a marine engine, he met George Stephenson, who was then establishing his locomotive works, Robert Stephenson and Company, at Newcastle-upon-Tyne. Stephenson appointed Kennedy manager in 1824. While in this post, Kennedy constructed two pairs of stationary winding engines and planned the first three locomotives for the opening of the Stockton and Darlington Railway in 1825.

Bury, Curtis and Kennedy
In 1825 he left Stephenson to return to Liverpool as manager of Mather, Dixon and Company but very soon joined locomotive builder Edward Bury and Company as foreman of the Clarence Foundry. In 1842 he became a partner in the firm, now renamed Bury, Curtis and Kennedy.

Thomas Vernon and Son
From 1844 he also acted as manager of the Liverpool shipbuilder Thomas Vernon and Son where he introduced iron deck beams.

Professional appointments
He was a founder member of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers in 1847, becoming its President in 1860.

Death
He died in 1886 at his home, Cressington Park, Garston, near Liverpool. He was survived by his wife, Adelaide.

Dibang Dam. The Dibang Dam is a planned concrete gravity dam, proposed to be located in the Lower Dibang Valley District in Arunachal Pradesh, India. If constructed, it will be India's largest dam and the world's tallest concrete gravity dam, standing  tall. The Dibang Dam is expected to provide up to 3,000 megawatts of hydroelectric power and will also assist with flood control in the Dibang Valley.

History
The foundation stone for the dam was laid on 31 January 2008 by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. Construction on the project, however, has yet to begin. In 2013, the Ministry of Environment and Forests rejected the project's application but NHPC Limited resubmitted it in 2014. The dam has also been under intense local and international opposition to its tentative negative environmental impacts and forced relocations of Idu Mishmi tribal peoples.

The Modi government gave a renewed go-ahead for the project in 2019. The main purpose of the project will be flood control and electricity generation. As of 2020, work was not progressing on either of the two major dam projects in the Assam region, the Dibang and the Lower Subansiri.

P0f. p0f is a passive TCP/IP stack fingerprinting tool. p0f can attempt to identify the system running on machines that send network traffic to the box it is running on, or to a machine that shares a medium with the machine it is running on.  p0f can also assist in analysing other aspects of the remote system.

Overview 
By inspecting network traffic passively, p0f can attempt to identify the operating systems on remote machines that send TCP packets to the detecting machine's network interface, or to a physical subnet that the detecting machine can listen on.  Since version 3, p0f is also able to deduce aspects of the remote system by inspecting application-level HTTP messages.

p0f can also check for firewall presence.  It can estimate the distance to a remote system and calculate its uptime.  It also guesses the remote system's means of connecting to the network (DSL, OC3, etc.).

Unlike tools like nmap, p0f does not generate traffic.  Instead, it determines the operating system of the remote host by analyzing certain fields in the captured packets. This can have benefits in environments where actively creating network traffic would cause unhelpful side effects.  In particular, the remote system will not be able to detect the packet capture and inspection.

Usage 
Signatures used for packet inspection are stored in a simple text file.  This allows them to be modified without recompiling p0f.  The user is allowed to use a different fingerprinting file by selecting another one at run time.

p0f does not use a graphical user interface: it is run from the command line prompt.

The Red and the Blue (TV series). The Red and the Blue (Il Rosso e il Blu) is an Italian stop-motion animated series for children. It has two clay animated characters, antagonistic shapeshifters, one colored red, the other blue.

The show sets the two characters in an undifferentiated white plane in which they interact. They are able to assume various forms at will, for example in one episode The Blue becomes a boat while The Red becomes an island, later the Blue becomes a suitcase while The Red partially converts his body into a chest-of-drawers, filling the suitcase with red 'clothes'.

Misseri's website describes the situation as:
Two blocks of clay. The Red is big and passionate; he like driving fast cars, eating... enjoying all the pleasures of life. The blue is small, smart and cunning, and he's there just to bother the red.

The characters communicate in a prelingual form that conveys emotions without using any particular language. This avoided the need for translation or subtitles.
Francesco Misseri describes the language "non-verbal" and "onomatopoeic" on the website and in a comment on YouTube.

The series was written and directed by Francesco Misseri with music by Piero Barbetti. In Australia it was first broadcast on the ABC. In the United States, it first aired as part of Captain Kangaroo on CBS, and later as post-show interstitials on Nickelodeon in the mid-1980s.

During some reprints and recent YouTube releases, the title was also shortened as Red and Blue while the original name still remains intact on recent YouTube releases.

Ethyl propionate. Ethyl propionate is an organic compound with formula C2H5O2CCH2CH3. It is the ethyl ester of propionic acid. It is a colorless volatile liquid with a pineapple-like odor. Some fruits such as kiwis and strawberries contain ethyl propionate in small amounts.

Uses and reactions
It is also used in the production of some antimalarial drugs including pyrimethamine.

Ethyl propionate can be synthesized by the Fischer esterification of ethanol and propionic acid:
CH3CH2OH  +  CH3CH2CO2H   →   CH3CH2O2CCH2CH3   +   H2O

It participates in condensation reactions by virtue of the weakly acidic methylene group.

Benzoic anhydride. Benzoic anhydride is the organic compound with the formula (C6H5CO)2O.  It is the acid anhydride of benzoic acid and the simplest symmetrical aromatic acid anhydride. It is a white solid.

Preparation and reactions
It is usually prepared by the dehydration reaction of benzoic acid, e.g. using acetic anhydride:
2 C6H5CO2H  + (CH3CO)2O  → (C6H5CO)2O  +  2 CH3CO2H
Alternatively, sodium benzoate can be treated with benzoyl chloride. It can be produced by dehydrating benzoic acid by heating.   

Benzoic anhydride provides a convenient way to prepare benzoic esters:
(C6H5CO)2O  +  ROH  →  C6H5CO2H  +  C6H5CO2R

CubePort. CubePort is a commercial software application that converts from Oracle Essbase to the analogous Microsoft product Microsoft Analysis Services, which is built into Microsoft SQL Server.  This application achieves this through various analogy mapping techniques, and is a standard client-server application that runs on a Windows computer but may connect to non-Windows servers.  CubePort converts the various OLAP structures and syntaxes in the source through an extraction process, interprets, and recreates in the target.  The objective is to simulate exactly the behavior of the original source system to the target system.

The application also includes UI phases such as Authentication, Questions, Extraction, and Verification.  Substantial testing normally occurs after the conversion process prior to posting the objects to production.

History
The software was released widely in 2005.  CubePort represents the first product of its kind in the Business intelligence platform migration space.  The product was design and created to provide an organization with the ability to move their Business Intelligence assets from one platform to another.   
        
Unlike the RDBMS (relational databases) world where there exists the commonplace ability to migrate from one RDBMS product type to another, in the Business Intelligence or OLAP product space, this capability is currently not found in the marketplace.

Usage Motivations
Motivations for migrating from one Business Intelligence platform to another, regardless of whether this is achieved through automated or manual methods, vary from implementation to implementation, and may include one or more of the following motivations:
 Reduction of licensing or recurring maintenance expense
 Increase of detail-level of the cube 
 Increase of the user count
 Elimination of cube load and calculation time constraints 
 Elimination of pervasive vendor lock-in scenario
 Standardization towards Microsoft BI platform, where appropriate

Objects Converted

These standard objects in a cube are converted by the software with varying levels of robustness:
 Cube Outline
 Cube Data Loads and Dimension Builds
 Cube Security Model
 Cube Substitution Variables
 Cube Calculation Scripts
 Cube Report Scripts

The output objects of a successful run of CubePort are: A relational Star schema and/or relational Snowflake schema, OLAP cube, Etl load packages, MDX (Multidimensional Expressions) files, and others.
