Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

21. Electronic voting outlawed in Ireland, Michael
Flatley DVDs okay for now
by Tim Stevens posted Apr 28th 2009 at 7:23AM
Yes, it's another international blow for electronic voting. We've seen the things proven to be insecure, illegal,
and, most recently, unconstitutional. Now the Emerald Isle is taking a similar step, scrapping an e-voting
network that has cost €51 million to develop (about $66 million) in favor of good 'ol paper ballots. With that
crisis averted Irish politicians can get back to what they do best: blaming each other for wasting €51 million
in taxpayer money.

Student Fined $675,000 in Downloading Case
By Dave Itzkoff
Bizuayehu Tesfaye/Associated Press Joel Tenenbaum was found
liable for copyright violations in a trial in Boston.
Updated | 7:03 p.m. A jury decided Friday that a Boston University student should pay
$675,000 to four record labels for illegally downloading and sharing music, The Associated
Press reported.
A judge ruled that Joel Tenenbaum, 25, who admitted to downloading more than 800 songs from
the Internet between 1999 and 2007 did so in violation of copyright laws and is liable for
damages. Mr. Tenenbaum testified Thursday in federal district court in Boston that he had
downloaded and shared hundreds of songs by artists including Nirvana, Green Day and the
Smashing Pumpkins, and said that he had lied in pretrial depositions when he said that friends or
siblings may have downloaded the songs to his computer. The record labels involved the case
have focused on only 30 of the songs that Mr. Tenenbaum downloaded. Under federal law they
were entitled to $750 to $30,000 per infringement, but the jury could have raised that to as much
as $150,000 per track if it found the infringements were willful. In arguments on Friday, The
A.P. reported, a lawyer for Mr. Tenenbaum urged a jury to “send a message” to the music
industry by awarding only minimal damages.

23. Majority think outsourcing threatens
network security
Angela Moscaritolo
September 29, 2009
A majority of IT security professionals believe that outsourcing technology jobs to offshore
locations has a negative impact on network security, according to a survey released Tuesday.
In the survey of 350 IT managers and network administrators concerned with computer and
network security at their organizations, 69 percent of respondents said they believe outsourcing
negatively impacts network security, nine percent said it had a positive impact and 22 said it
had no impact.
The survey, conducted this month by Amplitude Research and commissioned by VanDyke
Software, a provider of secure file transfer solutions, found that 29 percent of respondents'
employers outsource technology jobs to India, China and other locations.
Of those respondents whose companies outsource technology jobs, half said that they believe
doing so has had a negative impact on network security.
Sixty-one percent of respondents whose companies outsource technology jobs also said their
organization experienced an unauthorized intrusion. In contrast, just 35 percent of those whose
company does not outsource did. However, the survey noted that organizations that do
outsource were “significantly” more likely than those that do not to report intrusions.
“We're not going to say we have any proven cause and effect,” Steve Birnkrant, CEO of
Amplitude Research, told SCMagazineUS.com on Tuesday. “Correlation doesn't prove
causation, but it's definitely intriguing that the companies that outsource jobs offshore are more
likely to report unauthorized intrusions.”
In a separate survey released last December from Lumension Security and the Ponemon
Institute, IT security professionals said that outsourcing would be the biggest cybersecurity
threat of 2009.
In light if the recession, companies are outsourcing to reduce costs, but the practice opens
organizations up to the threat of sensitive or confidential information not being properly
protected, and unauthorized parties gaining access to private files, the survey concluded.
In contrast to their overall views about the impact that outsourcing has on network security,
Amplitude/VanDyke Software survey respondents were largely positive about the impact of
outside security audits. Seventy-two percent of respondents whose companies paid for outside
audits said they were worthwhile investments and 54 percent said they resulted in the discovery
of significant security problems.

24. Connecticut drops felony charges against Julie Amero, four years
after her arrest
By
Rick Green
on November 21, 2008 5:16 PM |
The unbelievable story of Julie Amero concluded quietly Friday afternoon at Superior Court in Norwich,
with the state of Connecticut dropping four felony pornography charges.
Amero agreed to plead guilty to a single charge of disorderly
conduct, a misdemeanor. Amero, who has been
hospitalized and suffers from declining health, also
surrendered her teaching license.
"Oh honey, it's over. I feel wonderful," Amero, 41, said a few
minutes after accepting the deal where she also had to
surrender her teaching license. "The Norwich police made a
mistake. It was proven. That makes me feel like I'm on top
of the world."
In June of 2007, Judge Hillary B. Strackbein tossed out
Amero's conviction on charges that she intentionally caused
a stream of "pop-up" pornography on the computer in her classroom and allowed students to view it.
Confronted with evidence compiled by forensic computer experts, Strackbein ordered a new trial, saying the
conviction was based on "erroneous" and "false information."
But since that dramatic reversal, local officials, police and state prosecutors were unwilling to admit that a
mistake may have been made -- even after computer experts from around the country demonstrated that
Amero's computer had been infected by "spyware."
New London County State's Attorney Michael Regan told me late Friday the state remained convinced Amero
was guilty and was prepared to again go to trial.
"I have no regrets. Things took a course that was unplanned. Unfortunately the computer wasn't examined
properly by the Norwich police," Regan said.
"For some reason this case caught the media's attention,'' Regan said.
The case also caught the attention of computer security experts from California to Florida, who read about
Amero's conviction on Internet news sites. Recognizing the classic signs of a computer infected by malicious
adware, volunteers examined computer records and the hard drive and determined that Amero was not
responsible for the pornographic stream on her computer.
The state never conducted a forensic examination of the hard drive and instead relied on the expertise of a
Norwich detective, with limited computer experience. Experts working for Amero ridiculed the state's
evidence, saying it was a classic case of spyware seizing control of the computer. Other experts also said
that Amero's response -- she failed to turn off the computer -- was not unusual in cases like this.
Among other things, the security experts found that the Norwich school system had failed to properly
update software that would have blocked the pornography in the first place.
