Hadrian's Wall
Hadrian's Wall was built in the 2nd century AD under the Roman Emperor Hadrian to protect Roman Britain from invaders from the north. It extended 73 miles across northern Britain and was constructed by over 7,000 Roman soldiers over 5 years. It featured a stone wall up to 15 feet high with a ditch on either side and 17 forts along it where soldiers were garrisoned. One of the best preserved forts is Housesteads, where 1,000 infantrymen from southern Belgium were stationed. Though its importance declined after Hadrian's death, Hadrian's Wall remains a popular tourist site today that gives visitors a glimpse into Roman Britain.
Hadrian
Hadrian was a Roman emperor from 117-138 AD known for his extensive travels and architectural projects throughout the empire. He succeeded Trajan as the 14th emperor. Hadrian spent much of his reign traveling to provinces to oversee administration and ensure military discipline. As a ruler, he was considered just and focused on public works, border security, and avoiding major conflicts. His most significant architectural achievement was Hadrian's Wall in Britain, which marked the northern border. He also built cities, aqueducts, and structures like the Pantheon and his magnificent mausoleum Castel Sant'Angelo, some of which still stand today.

Feudal Europe castles lesson plan
Castles served an important defensive purpose during times of conflict in feudal Europe. They typically included several key features such as a moat to prevent intruders, a drawbridge to control entry, thick curtain walls to withstand siege weapons, a gatehouse with defenses like murder holes, towers for lookouts and prisoners, and an interior with buildings for living, working, worshipping, and more. These parts worked together to make castles secure fortresses that protected medieval lords and their people.

Hadrian's Wall was a defensive fortification built in northern England under the orders of Roman Emperor Hadrian in 122 AD. It stretched over 120 kilometers across northern Britain to defend Roman-controlled farms and trade routes from raids by the Picts who lived north of the wall in modern-day Scotland. The wall had small forts called milecastles spaced at regular intervals along with towers called turrets. Soldiers lived in barracks within the milecastles and patrolled the wall. A ditch and road further enhanced its defenses. Hadrian's Wall marked the northernmost frontier of the Roman Empire in Britain until Roman forces withdrew in the late 4th century AD.

Tower of London
The Tower of London was originally built by William the Conqueror as a fortress to control rebellious Londoners after the Norman invasion. Over the centuries, it was expanded upon by many monarchs and transformed into a complex containing palaces, barracks, and prisons. The oldest and most prominent structure is the White Tower, built by William around 1078. Other notable buildings include the Bloody Tower, site of the alleged murder of the Princes in the Tower, and Traitor's Gate, where prisoners arrived by boat. The Tower has housed the Crown Jewels and been used variously as a royal residence, mint, observatory, and high-security prison.
The Tower of London
The Tower of London is a historic castle located in central London on the River Thames. It was built in 1078 on the orders of William the Conqueror to serve as a royal residence and fortress. Over the centuries, the Tower of London has also functioned as a prison, place of execution, arsenal, royal mint, zoo, and jewel house. Many famous figures were imprisoned and executed at the Tower, including Anne Boleyn and Sir Walter Raleigh. Today it is a popular tourist attraction guarded by Beefeaters and houses the Crown Jewels.
The French castles
French castles evolved over centuries from wooden fortifications in the 10th century to ornate stone palaces by the 15th century Renaissance. Early castles had moats, dirt mounds and wooden walls for protection, later adding layers of stone walls. By the 17th century, castles like Versailles were no longer military fortresses but grand residences for royalty and nobility, with hundreds of rooms, ornate design, and luxurious furnishings. The daily life of a lord and servants within a medieval castle centered around protection, accommodation and supplying food, while later grand palaces like Versailles established strict routines and ceremonies for royalty.

Medieval castles
Castles served as fortified homes for lords and provided protection during times of war. They were built with thick walls atop high ground and surrounded by a deep moat. Battlements along the walls allowed soldiers to move safely during battles and included arrowslits. The defensive tower was used to direct battle plans. Entry was controlled through the raised drawbridge and lowered portcullis. Within the castle, the lord's family lived in the tall keep tower, where important events such as celebrations and legal proceedings occurred in the great hall.

The Thirteen Colonies
The document discusses the three regions of the original 13 colonies: New England (which included Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Connecticut and had a cold climate not suitable for large scale farming), the Middle Colonies (New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Delaware that had a warmer climate and grew crops like wheat and barley) and the Southern Colonies (with advantages for growing cash crops like tobacco, cotton and rice and that utilized slavery on plantations).
13 colonies
The document lists differences between the 13 colonies grouped into New England, Middle, and Southern regions. It describes differences in their geography, governments, major industries, and crops. The New England colonies had forests and poor soil, governments that separated church and state, shipbuilding and fishing industries, and grew grains. The Middle colonies had more fertile land and rivers, elected lawmakers, farming and milling, and primarily wheat. The Southern colonies focused on cash crops like tobacco and rice, tied work to receiving food, and benefited from navigable rivers.
Life in the 13 colonies
Life in the 13 colonies involved subsistence farming in New England due to the rocky soil and short growing season, commercial agriculture in the Mid-Atlantic colonies thanks to fertile soil, and cash crops like tobacco, rice and indigo in the warm Southern colonies. Colonists ate local foods and seafood, and wore simple clothing. Religion varied by region, and education focused on basic literacy, often just for boys. The colonies participated in transatlantic trade, including the triangular trade that brought enslaved Africans to the Southern colonies.
Life in Colonial America
The document summarizes life in the three main regions of colonial America: New England, Middle, and Southern colonies. It describes the reasons for settlement, including religious freedom, economic opportunities, and land ownership. The New England colonies attracted those seeking religious freedom and consisted of small family farms and fishing. The Middle colonies had a mix of religious and economic motivations and included farming, factories, and trade. The Southern colonies were founded primarily for economic reasons, centered around large plantations that relied on slave labor to grow cash crops like tobacco.

Webinar: Designing a schema for a Data Warehouse
Are you new to data warehouses (DWH)? Do you need to check whether your data warehouse follows the best practices for a good design? In both cases, this webinar is for you.
A data warehouse is a central relational database that contains all measurements about a business or an organisation. This data comes from a variety of heterogeneous data sources, which includes databases of any type that back the applications used by the company, data files exported by some applications, or APIs provided by internal or external services.
But designing a data warehouse correctly is a hard task, which requires gathering information about the business processes that need to be analysed in the first place. These processes must be translated into so-called star schemas, which means, denormalised databases where each table represents a dimension or facts.
We will discuss these topics:
- How to gather information about a business;
- Understanding dictionaries and how to identify business entities;
- Dimensions and facts;
- Setting a table granularity;
- Types of facts;
- Types of dimensions;
- Snowflakes and how to avoid them;
- Expanding existing dimensions and facts.

Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.
-An opportunity to connect with fellow Power Grid Model enthusiasts and users.
