This document discusses how online communities can enable and amplify social protests. It describes how online petitions and communities allow discontent to spread and organize protests more rapidly. Protests are no longer confined to physical gatherings but can be coordinated virtually, making them more difficult for governments to control. Examples like the Arab Spring and Occupy Wall Street showed how online networks magnified protests and challenged authorities. Recent protests in Iran over a woman's death in custody also spread through viral videos and apps before being blocked by the government.

Urban Topic- Cycpercities and china's censorship
The document summarizes China's censorship of the internet and how it affects social activism and democracy in the country. It discusses how social activists now use modern technologies like social media to organize and spread information faster. While this has helped activism, it has also complicated matters for China, which is not a democracy and strictly censors the internet. The censorship aims to prevent foreign democratic ideas from inspiring calls for political change among Chinese citizens. As internet use grew in China, so did government restrictions on content and service providers to maintain control over the flow of information and activism online.

The jasmine revolution
The document summarizes the role of social media in the 2010-2011 Tunisian Revolution that overthrew the authoritarian president Zine El Abidine Ben Ali. It describes how:
1) Widespread dissatisfaction and the self-immolation of Mohamed Bouazizi sparked protests that spread nationwide despite a crackdown.
2) Activists used social media like Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube to organize protests, spread information and videos of government violence, and coordinate responses as the situation rapidly changed.
3) International attention amplified their message and helped turn the movement into a "viral phenomenon" that ultimately led to Ben Ali fleeing the country on January 14, 2011, ending 23 years of repress
Social networking sites and mass compaigns ppt
Social networking sites can be effectively used for mass campaigns due to their ability to rapidly disseminate information to a large number of people at low cost. They allow for two-way communication and public dialogue, helping to influence public opinions and shape government policymaking. Campaigns on social media can reach greater numbers of people, including women and marginalized groups. The Anna Hazare anti-corruption movement in India successfully utilized Facebook to garner 500,000 likes in support of its cause. Social networking sites are now commonly used for various public health campaigns as well.

power of social media complete slides
Social media allows people to connect and share information globally in an influential way. There are nearly 3.5 billion active social media users. The power of social media includes educational purposes, worldwide connectivity, and helping achieve goals. However, disadvantages include privacy issues, lifestyle changes like reduced sleep, and lack of emotional connection compared to in-person interactions. Social media can also positively or negatively influence events through media coverage but requires safe usage to avoid threats like trolling, identity theft, and hacking.

What social media is doing to the world
Social media is changing the world by allowing real-time communication across borders. It has helped raise funds for disaster relief in Haiti and spread awareness of political protests in Iran and other countries. However, some governments seek to restrict or monitor social media use over concerns about control and surveillance. While controversies exist, social media also enables new connections and opportunities for exposure. The future of social media globally remains uncertain, but participation continues to grow in all regions.
Megaphones or echo chambers?
This document summarizes research on hate speech and counter-messaging on social media in Sri Lanka. It finds that Facebook pages spread anti-Muslim and anti-minority hate speech in Sinhala with a large following of users aged 18-35. Even very offensive content gained audiences. Counter-messaging pages faced an uphill battle and campaigns like #IvotedSL and #IcanChangeSL tried to encourage civic participation and positive change. However, addressing the growth of online hate speech requires understanding its network dynamics and context in Sri Lankan society.
New media and technology crisis(fardin ayar)
1. The Lighting movement in Afghanistan opposed the government's decision to change the route of a 500KV electricity transmission line from Salang district to Bamyan province, seeing it as discriminatory against Hazaras.
2. Protesters used social media like Twitter and Facebook to mobilize people and bring international attention to their cause, undermining the government and creating a crisis.
3. The movement led to large protests both in Afghanistan and among the Afghan diaspora overseas, but the government responded with media censorship and violent suppression that led to over 500 deaths.
Final project APWH - Arab Spring
The Arab Spring began in 2010-2011 as a wave of revolutions across the Middle East where people called for democracy and an end to corrupt leadership. It started in Tunisia when a fruit vendor set himself on fire after facing harassment from officials, sparking protests. His death intensified demonstrations that led to Tunisia's president fleeing within weeks. The success in Tunisia inspired similar uprisings in other countries like Egypt and Libya that also overthrew authoritarian leaders. However, concerns remain about radical Islamist groups gaining power and potential suppression of rights under Sharia law.

Some topics covered are social media usage rates, popularity, power for education, awareness, business, tourism, values and addressing social issues. The conclusion emphasizes the benefits of positive social media use.
Political hacktivism
Political hacktivism involves using computer hacking for political activism and protest. It emerged as a way for grassroots political groups to have their voices heard. Hacktivists believe the public has a right to information about what political leaders actually stand for and what wrongs the government has committed. Examples of hacktivism include creating protest websites, cyber squatting on domain names, defacing websites, denial of service attacks, and site redirection. While hacktivism has the potential to promote positive social change, some of its illegal actions may restrict freedom and overstep ethical boundaries. For hacktivism to have bigger impacts, it is most effective when combined with on-the-ground political activism and protest.

Signatures of wave erosion in Titan’s coasts
The shorelines of Titan’s hydrocarbon seas trace flooded erosional landforms such as river valleys; however, it isunclear whether coastal erosion has subsequently altered these shorelines. Spacecraft observations and theo-retical models suggest that wind may cause waves to form on Titan’s seas, potentially driving coastal erosion,but the observational evidence of waves is indirect, and the processes affecting shoreline evolution on Titanremain unknown. No widely accepted framework exists for using shoreline morphology to quantitatively dis-cern coastal erosion mechanisms, even on Earth, where the dominant mechanisms are known. We combinelandscape evolution models with measurements of shoreline shape on Earth to characterize how differentcoastal erosion mechanisms affect shoreline morphology. Applying this framework to Titan, we find that theshorelines of Titan’s seas are most consistent with flooded landscapes that subsequently have been eroded bywaves, rather than a uniform erosional process or no coastal erosion, particularly if wave growth saturates atfetch lengths of tens of kilometers.

Political hacktivism involves using computer hacking for political activism and protest. It emerged as a way for grassroots political groups to have their voices heard. Hacktivists believe the public has a right to information about what political leaders actually stand for and what wrongs the government has committed. Examples of hacktivism include creating protest websites, cyber squatting on domain names, defacing websites, denial of service attacks, and site redirection. While hacktivism has the potential to promote positive social change, some of its illegal actions may restrict freedom and overstep ethical boundaries. For hacktivism to have bigger impacts, it is most effective when combined with on-the-ground political activism and protest.

Signatures of wave erosion in Titan’s coasts
The shorelines of Titan’s hydrocarbon seas trace flooded erosional landforms such as river valleys; however, it isunclear whether coastal erosion has subsequently altered these shorelines. Spacecraft observations and theo-retical models suggest that wind may cause waves to form on Titan’s seas, potentially driving coastal erosion,but the observational evidence of waves is indirect, and the processes affecting shoreline evolution on Titanremain unknown. No widely accepted framework exists for using shoreline morphology to quantitatively dis-cern coastal erosion mechanisms, even on Earth, where the dominant mechanisms are known. We combinelandscape evolution models with measurements of shoreline shape on Earth to characterize how differentcoastal erosion mechanisms affect shoreline morphology. Applying this framework to Titan, we find that theshorelines of Titan’s seas are most consistent with flooded landscapes that subsequently have been eroded bywaves, rather than a uniform erosional process or no coastal erosion, particularly if wave growth saturates atfetch lengths of tens of kilometers.

Alternate Wetting and Drying - Climate Smart Agriculture

PPT on Alternate Wetting and Drying presented at the three-day 'Training and Validation Workshop on Modules of Climate Smart Agriculture (CSA) Technologies in South Asia' workshop on April 22, 2024. JAMES WEBB STUDY THE MASSIVE BLACK HOLE SEEDS
The pathway(s) to seeding the massive black holes (MBHs) that exist at the heart of galaxies in the present and distant Universe remains an unsolved problem. Here we categorise, describe and quantitatively discuss the formation pathways of both light and heavy seeds. We emphasise that the most recent computational models suggest that rather than a bimodal-like mass spectrum between light and heavy seeds with light at one end and heavy at the other that instead a continuum exists. Light seeds being more ubiquitous and the heavier seeds becoming less and less abundant due the rarer environmental conditions required for their formation. We therefore examine the different mechanisms that give rise to different seed mass spectrums. We show how and why the mechanisms that produce the heaviest seeds are also among the rarest events in the Universe and are hence extremely unlikely to be the seeds for the vast majority of the MBH population. We quantify, within the limits of the current large uncertainties in the seeding processes, the expected number densities of the seed mass spectrum. We argue that light seeds must be at least 103 to 105 times more numerous than heavy seeds to explain the MBH population as a whole. Based on our current understanding of the seed population this makes heavy seeds (Mseed > 103 M⊙) a significantly more likely pathway given that heavy seeds have an abundance pattern than is close to and likely in excess of 10−4 compared to light seeds. Finally, we examine the current state-of-the-art in numerical calculations and recent observations and plot a path forward for near-future advances in both domains.

The cost of acquiring information by natural selection
This is a short talk that I gave at the Banff International Research Station workshop on Modeling and Theory in Population Biology. The idea is to try to understand how the burden of natural selection relates to the amount of information that selection puts into the genome.
It's based on the first part of this research paper:

Evidence of Jet Activity from the Secondary Black Hole in the OJ 287 Binary S...
Wereport the study of a huge optical intraday flare on 2021 November 12 at 2 a.m. UT in the blazar OJ287. In the binary black hole model, it is associated with an impact of the secondary black hole on the accretion disk of the primary. Our multifrequency observing campaign was set up to search for such a signature of the impact based on a prediction made 8 yr earlier. The first I-band results of the flare have already been reported by Kishore et al. (2024). Here we combine these data with our monitoring in the R-band. There is a big change in the R–I spectral index by 1.0 ±0.1 between the normal background and the flare, suggesting a new component of radiation. The polarization variation during the rise of the flare suggests the same. The limits on the source size place it most reasonably in the jet of the secondary BH. We then ask why we have not seen this phenomenon before. We show that OJ287 was never before observed with sufficient sensitivity on the night when the flare should have happened according to the binary model. We also study the probability that this flare is just an oversized example of intraday variability using the Krakow data set of intense monitoring between 2015 and 2023. We find that the occurrence of a flare of this size and rapidity is unlikely. In machine-readable Tables 1 and 2, we give the full orbit-linked historical light curve of OJ287 as well as the dense monitoring sample of Krakow.
Candidate young stellar objects in the S-cluster: Kinematic analysis of a sub...
Context. The observation of several L-band emission sources in the S cluster has led to a rich discussion of their nature. However, a definitive answer to the classification of the dusty objects requires an explanation for the detection of compact Doppler-shifted Brγ emission. The ionized hydrogen in combination with the observation of mid-infrared L-band continuum emission suggests that most of these sources are embedded in a dusty envelope. These embedded sources are part of the S-cluster, and their relationship to the S-stars is still under debate. To date, the question of the origin of these two populations has been vague, although all explanations favor migration processes for the individual cluster members. Aims. This work revisits the S-cluster and its dusty members orbiting the supermassive black hole SgrA* on bound Keplerian orbits from a kinematic perspective. The aim is to explore the Keplerian parameters for patterns that might imply a nonrandom distribution of the sample. Additionally, various analytical aspects are considered to address the nature of the dusty sources. Methods. Based on the photometric analysis, we estimated the individual H−K and K−L colors for the source sample and compared the results to known cluster members. The classification revealed a noticeable contrast between the S-stars and the dusty sources. To fit the flux-density distribution, we utilized the radiative transfer code HYPERION and implemented a young stellar object Class I model. We obtained the position angle from the Keplerian fit results; additionally, we analyzed the distribution of the inclinations and the longitudes of the ascending node. Results. The colors of the dusty sources suggest a stellar nature consistent with the spectral energy distribution in the near and midinfrared domains. Furthermore, the evaporation timescales of dusty and gaseous clumps in the vicinity of SgrA* are much shorter ( 2yr) than the epochs covered by the observations (≈15yr). In addition to the strong evidence for the stellar classification of the D-sources, we also find a clear disk-like pattern following the arrangements of S-stars proposed in the literature. Furthermore, we find a global intrinsic inclination for all dusty sources of 60 ± 20◦, implying a common formation process. Conclusions. The pattern of the dusty sources manifested in the distribution of the position angles, inclinations, and longitudes of the ascending node strongly suggests two different scenarios: the main-sequence stars and the dusty stellar S-cluster sources share a common formation history or migrated with a similar formation channel in the vicinity of SgrA*. Alternatively, the gravitational influence of SgrA* in combination with a massive perturber, such as a putative intermediate mass black hole in the IRS 13 cluster, forces the dusty objects and S-stars to follow a particular orbital arrangement.

Microbial interaction
Microorganisms interacts with each other and can be physically associated with another organisms in a variety of ways.
One organism can be located on the surface of another organism as an ectobiont or located within another organism as endobiont.
Microbial interaction may be positive such as mutualism, proto-cooperation, commensalism or may be negative such as parasitism, predation or competition
Types of microbial interaction
Positive interaction: mutualism, proto-cooperation, commensalism
Negative interaction: Ammensalism (antagonism), parasitism, predation, competition
I. Mutualism:
It is defined as the relationship in which each organism in interaction gets benefits from association. It is an obligatory relationship in which mutualist and host are metabolically dependent on each other.
Mutualistic relationship is very specific where one member of association cannot be replaced by another species.
Mutualism require close physical contact between interacting organisms.
Relationship of mutualism allows organisms to exist in habitat that could not occupied by either species alone.
Mutualistic relationship between organisms allows them to act as a single organism.
Examples of mutualism:
i. Lichens:
Lichens are excellent example of mutualism.
They are the association of specific fungi and certain genus of algae. In lichen, fungal partner is called mycobiont and algal partner is called
II. Syntrophism:
It is an association in which the growth of one organism either depends on or improved by the substrate provided by another organism.
In syntrophism both organism in association gets benefits.
Compound A
Utilized by population 1
Compound B
Utilized by population 2
Compound C
utilized by both Population 1+2
Products
In this theoretical example of syntrophism, population 1 is able to utilize and metabolize compound A, forming compound B but cannot metabolize beyond compound B without co-operation of population 2. Population 2is unable to utilize compound A but it can metabolize compound B forming compound C. Then both population 1 and 2 are able to carry out metabolic reaction which leads to formation of end product that neither population could produce alone.
Examples of syntrophism:
i. Methanogenic ecosystem in sludge digester
Methane produced by methanogenic bacteria depends upon interspecies hydrogen transfer by other fermentative bacteria.
Anaerobic fermentative bacteria generate CO2 and H2 utilizing carbohydrates which is then utilized by methanogenic bacteria (Methanobacter) to produce methane.
ii. Lactobacillus arobinosus and Enterococcus faecalis:
In the minimal media, Lactobacillus arobinosus and Enterococcus faecalis are able to grow together but not alone.
The synergistic relationship between E. faecalis and L. arobinosus occurs in which E. faecalis require folic acid

SDSS1335+0728: The awakening of a ∼ 106M⊙ black hole⋆
Context. The early-type galaxy SDSS J133519.91+072807.4 (hereafter SDSS1335+0728), which had exhibited no prior optical variations during the preceding two decades, began showing significant nuclear variability in the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) alert stream from December 2019 (as ZTF19acnskyy). This variability behaviour, coupled with the host-galaxy properties, suggests that SDSS1335+0728 hosts a ∼ 106M⊙ black hole (BH) that is currently in the process of ‘turning on’. Aims. We present a multi-wavelength photometric analysis and spectroscopic follow-up performed with the aim of better understanding the origin of the nuclear variations detected in SDSS1335+0728. Methods. We used archival photometry (from WISE, 2MASS, SDSS, GALEX, eROSITA) and spectroscopic data (from SDSS and LAMOST) to study the state of SDSS1335+0728 prior to December 2019, and new observations from Swift, SOAR/Goodman, VLT/X-shooter, and Keck/LRIS taken after its turn-on to characterise its current state. We analysed the variability of SDSS1335+0728 in the X-ray/UV/optical/mid-infrared range, modelled its spectral energy distribution prior to and after December 2019, and studied the evolution of its UV/optical spectra. Results. From our multi-wavelength photometric analysis, we find that: (a) since 2021, the UV flux (from Swift/UVOT observations) is four times brighter than the flux reported by GALEX in 2004; (b) since June 2022, the mid-infrared flux has risen more than two times, and the W1−W2 WISE colour has become redder; and (c) since February 2024, the source has begun showing X-ray emission. From our spectroscopic follow-up, we see that (i) the narrow emission line ratios are now consistent with a more energetic ionising continuum; (ii) broad emission lines are not detected; and (iii) the [OIII] line increased its flux ∼ 3.6 years after the first ZTF alert, which implies a relatively compact narrow-line-emitting region. Conclusions. We conclude that the variations observed in SDSS1335+0728 could be either explained by a ∼ 106M⊙ AGN that is just turning on or by an exotic tidal disruption event (TDE). If the former is true, SDSS1335+0728 is one of the strongest cases of an AGNobserved in the process of activating. If the latter were found to be the case, it would correspond to the longest and faintest TDE ever observed (or another class of still unknown nuclear transient). Future observations of SDSS1335+0728 are crucial to further understand its behaviour. Key words. galaxies: active– accretion, accretion discs– galaxies: individual: SDSS J133519.91+072807.4

TOPIC OF DISCUSSION: CENTRIFUGATION SLIDESHARE.pptx
Centrifugation is a powerful technique used in laboratories to separate components of a heterogeneous mixture based on their density. This process utilizes centrifugal force to rapidly spin samples, causing denser particles to migrate outward more quickly than lighter ones. As a result, distinct layers form within the sample tube, allowing for easy isolation and purification of target substances.

Social protests and online communities.pptx
- 1. Social protests and online communities Jianjun Huang
- 2. Concepts and forms of protest • Disagree with wrong opinions Online Petition Assemblies Parade • Strong objections to statements or actions of others insurrection • Civilians or society facing the government to speak out Strike
- 3. World change caused by protests • Religious Reformation • Pennsylvania Mutiny of 1783 • The French Revolution • Haitian Revolution • Civil rights movement • Arab Spring • Occupy Wall Street
- 4. The dark side online communities 1. Irresponsible speech • The Internet is an anonymous community, we have some dissatisfaction in life to the Internet to vent out, we each do not know each other. It is a place to release stress. 2. The "dark side" of the cycle • The dark side of the online community will not disappear, and there will even be a "dark web“. • Searching the web in the last twenty years, you can see that at any time people are dissatisfied with society and life, these people do not delete their comments. • These statements are made by many people, and there is no end to the user's exposure to this information
- 5. Gathering of discontent, protest of unity 1. Everyday discontent, online community discontent and leaders with ideals who can organize a campaign to paralyze the city. 2. Due to the existence of online communities and protests for various reasons, it poses a challenge to the country's rulers. 3. Unresolved protests may divide the country. 4. The existence of online communities magnifies the failures of those in power, and each new member can quickly access previously missed information through the community. 5.The online community as a whole, any negative information may cause rapid spread and affect the image of the country.
- 6. Use of networked protest 1.Protest connected with money Some of the unemployed will join the protests because of money, and the online community may be responsible for and lead the “payroll“.（Most of them don't want to end protesting because they see it as a job with a good salary.） 2. Rapidly expanding protests Receiving the influence of the online community, the protest members must be diverse, they come from different ages, different countries. 3. A shift in the protest situation Some "protesters" with bad intentions will destroy public property as their numbers grow. 4. Military-like transfer speed The presence of online communities allows for quick and effective diversion of protesters. They can quickly organize a protest on the local by slogans, and the government in most cases is too late to react because of the slowness of the bureaucracy
- 7. Recent protests of online communities connecting to reality • Mahsa Amini protests • Amini, a 22-year-old woman, was arrested by police on charges of wearing a hijab "out of order. While in custody, Amini was pronounced dead. • Video on the Internet shows protests in southern Iran that continued into the early hours of the morning, during which police opened fire on demonstrators. • There was also a series of videos that went viral online, which fueled the protesters' anger even more, so the Iranian government blocked apps like “Instagram” and “Whatsapp”. • It is also considered to be the toughest network blockade imposed by the Iranian government since the 2019 Iranian protests.
- 8. Summarizing online communities and social movements • Features of the online community • 1 Resource access function 2 Daily life contact function 3 Organizational management support functions • A protest is a collection of individuals whose existence is not only realized by the individuals themselves, but also by people outside the group. • The needs of both the individual and society are an important basis for the formation, existence and development of groups. • The online community is in the middle of this, it has a connection to individuals and to social reality • And the basis of protest is to attract more people and carry out more activities, so the existence of online communities is similar to 1+1>3 • 1= Basic Protest， Online Community 3= Greater influence than traditional, greater challenge to heads of state.
