1) In the beginning was a huge egg containing chaos that contained the opposites of Yin and Yang. Within this egg was Pan Gu, who broke out and separated the chaos into earth and sky.
2) Pan Gu stood between the heavens and earth, pushing them apart over 18,000 years until they were separated by 30,000 miles.
3) When Pan Gu died, his body parts became aspects of the world - his skull became the sky, breath the wind, eyes the sun and moon, blood rivers, and fleas and lice on his body became the ancestors of humanity.
The Mayan Popol Vuh origin story describes the creation of the world and early humans. It explains that in the beginning there was only sky and sea, and the gods known as the Plumed Serpent and Heart of Sky worked together to create land, mountains, animals, and birds. However, their first attempts to create humans from mud and wood were unsuccessful. Finally, with the help of wise elders, humans were successfully formed from corn, allowing the Mayans to develop from hunter-gatherers into a complex civilization centered around agriculture.
In Aboriginal mythology, the Dreamtime describes the creation of the world. When the eternal ancestors first awoke from beneath the earth, they wandered the land in animal and human forms, shaping the landscape. The beings Ungambikula found unfinished humans and carved them into their recognizable forms. Each person is connected to the totem of the animal or plant that composed their original shapeless bundle. The ancestors' journeys in the Dreamtime left sacred sites across the land before they returned to sleep underground or became rocks and trees. The Dreamtime exists both in the distant past and continues in the present.
In the Greek origin story, Chaos emerged first and from it came Gaia, the earth, and other divine beings. Gaia gave birth to Uranus, the sky, and their union created the first Titans. Cronus overthrew his father Uranus and became the ruler of the gods. Fearing that his children would also overthrow him, Cronus ate each of his children except for Zeus, who was saved by his mother Rhea. When Zeus grew up, he fed Cronus a potion that caused him to regurgitate Zeus's siblings. Zeus then led them in a war against Cronus and the Titans, imprisoning the Titans and claiming rule over Mount Olympus for himself and the
The document discusses key concepts of agile testing. It debunks myths that agile methods are sloppy by emphasizing the discipline required. It notes that some teams claiming to be agile are not by compressing schedules without documentation. True agile values sustainability and needs testers, but not a separate QA group acting as "quality police". Testing moves the project forward by providing ongoing feedback rather than acting as a gate. It is a way of life through continuous testing to ensure progress. Shortening feedback loops increases agility. Documentation is lightweight and leverages shared artifacts between manual and automated testing. The "done done" principle means work is not done until implemented and tested.

Al igual que Moisés necesitó ayuda para mantener sus brazos en alto durante la batalla, los hombres necesitan apoyarse unos a otros a través de la participación en la iglesia. La iglesia es como un carril especial que permite a los creyentes ir más lejos más rápido en su caminar con Dios.
Este documento discute la naturaleza de la verdadera fuerza y liderazgo masculino. Argumenta que un hombre fuerte es aquel que entiende que su fuerza proviene de Dios y la usa para lograr su máximo potencial en pos del propósito para el cual fue creado. La humildad es controlar el poder para usarlo de manera constructiva en lugar de egoísta. Los hombres están en posiciones de liderazgo para apoyar su propósito, no para dominar a otros. Abusar del poder conlleva a perder la autoridad
Charla dada por el pastor Carlos Berges, en fecha 01-09-2015, a los hombres que deseen impactar a su familia. Estos hombres son los hombres del Reino de Dios.
Este documento discute el diseño bíblico de Dios para el matrimonio según Génesis 2:24, el cual implica separarse de los padres y unirse a la pareja. Sin embargo, muchas parejas no siguen este modelo y en su lugar mantienen lazos excesivos con los padres que dañan la unidad matrimonial. El documento enfatiza la necesidad de cortar esos lazos para lograr la unidad y la intimidad que Dios diseñó para el matrimonio.

This document proposes techniques for embedding unique codewords in electronic documents to discourage illicit copying and distribution. It describes three coding methods - line-shift coding, word-shift coding, and feature coding - that alter document formatting or text elements in subtle, hard-to-detect ways. Experimental results show the line-shift coding method can reliably decode documents even after photocopying, enabling identification of the intended recipient. The techniques aim to make unauthorized distribution at least as difficult as obtaining documents legitimately from the publisher.
This document discusses the field of computer forensics. It defines computer forensics as the collection, preservation, and analysis of computer-related evidence. The goal is to provide solid legal evidence that can be admitted in court and understood by laypeople. Computer forensics is used to investigate various incidents including human behavior like fraud, physical events like hardware failures, and organizational issues like staff changes. It aims to determine the root cause of system disruptions and failures.
This document discusses techniques for data hiding, which involves embedding additional data into digital media files like images, audio, or text. It describes several constraints on data hiding, such as the amount of data to hide, ensuring the data remains intact if the file is modified, and preventing unauthorized access to the hidden data. The document outlines traditional and novel data hiding techniques and evaluates them for applications like copyright protection, tamper-proofing, and adding supplemental data to files. It also discusses tradeoffs between hiding more data versus making the data more robust against modifications to the file.
This document summarizes an analysis of over 200,000 websites engaged in badware behavior according to Google's Safe Browsing initiative. The analysis found that over half of infected sites were located in China, with the top three Chinese network blocks accounting for 68% of infections in that country. In contrast, infected sites in the US were more distributed. Compared to the previous year, the total number of infected sites increased, likely due to expanded scanning and increased malware distribution through websites.
Steganography has been used for over 2500 years to hide secret messages. The paper explores steganography's history from ancient times through modern digital applications. It discusses early examples like Johannes Trithemius' steganographic treatise in the 15th century. Modern uses include microdots, digital images, audio, and digital watermarks for copyright protection. Terrorist groups may use steganography but there is no public evidence yet. Steganography continues to evolve with technology while attackers work to defeat new techniques.
The document discusses various cryptographic techniques including symmetric and asymmetric encryption. Symmetric encryption uses the same key for encryption and decryption, while asymmetric encryption uses two different keys. The document then describes the Data Encryption Standard (DES) algorithm and its variants, including Triple DES. It also covers the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm, its design principles, and modes of operation for block ciphers like ECB, CBC, CFB and OFB.

This document discusses the discrete-time Fourier transform (DTFT). It begins by introducing the DTFT and how it can be used to represent aperiodic signals as the sum of complex exponentials. Several properties of the DTFT are then discussed, including linearity, time/frequency shifting, periodicity, and conjugate symmetry. Examples are provided to illustrate how to compute the DTFT of simple signals. The document also discusses how the DTFT can be used to represent periodic signals and impulse trains.
This document discusses the continuous-time Fourier transform. It begins by developing the Fourier transform representation of aperiodic signals as the limit of Fourier series coefficients as the period increases. It then defines the Fourier transform pairs and discusses properties like convergence. Several examples of calculating the Fourier transform of common signals like exponentials, pulses and periodic signals are provided. Key concepts like the sinc function are also introduced.
Chapter3 - Fourier Series Representation of Periodic SignalsAttaporn Ninsuwan
This document discusses Fourier series representation of periodic signals. It introduces continuous-time periodic signals and their representation as a linear combination of harmonically related complex exponentials. The coefficients in the Fourier series representation can be determined by multiplying both sides of the representation by complex exponentials and integrating over one period. The key steps are: 1) multiplying both sides by e-jω0t, 2) integrating both sides from 0 to T=2π/ω0, and 3) using the fact that the integral equals T when k=n and 0 otherwise to obtain an expression for the coefficients an. Examples are provided to illustrate these concepts.
