An illustrated introduction to Archaeological Tours' Megaliths and Monuments study tour for May 2016. The tour visits four Paleolithic occupation sites, two dozen Neolithic megalith sites and several historical monuments including Mont-Saint-Michel. Lodgings are taken in Paris, Carnac, Quimper, Morlaix, Saint-Malo, Salisbury and London Heathrow.
Varna Culture is thought to be one of the most advanced civilizations of ancient Europe. Older than the empires of Mesopotamia and Egypt, Varna has the largest prehistoric necropolis in South-eastern Europe and, as far as we know, was the first to craft golden artifacts. April Holloway introduces us to its cultural practices, complex funerary rites, belief systems, and more. Boyan Slat was only 17 when he solved a problem that most said was insoluble, and had thus never been attempted: cleaning the floating plastic from the oceans. He then launched The Ocean Cleanup Project and has so far raised $2 million to make his idea reality. Jacquelyn Keun has interviewed this teenager who is amazing the world and leading a unique environmental initiative. Rob Hutchinson returns in this issue with surprising psychological phenomena. Have you ever wondered why you believe in determined things? Let’s change the question to explain the trick: why do we believe what we want to believe?

Student information management system project report ii.pdfKamal Acharya
Our project explains about the student management. This project mainly explains the various actions related to student details. This project shows some ease in adding, editing and deleting the student details. It also provides a less time consuming process for viewing, adding, editing and deleting the marks of the students.
Courier management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
It is now-a-days very important for the people to send or receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts, business goods and the like. People depend vastly on different transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving and delivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they are received and there is no way to let the customer know what happened in transit, once he booked some articles. In such a situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the cargo activities including time to time tracking of the articles sent. This need is fulfilled by Courier Management System software which is online software for the cargo management people that enables them to receive the goods from a source and send them to a required destination and track their status from time to time.
Automobile Management System Project Report.pdfKamal Acharya
The proposed project is developed to manage the automobile in the automobile dealer company. The main module in this project is login, automobile management, customer management, sales, complaints and reports. The first module is the login. The automobile showroom owner should login to the project for usage. The username and password are verified and if it is correct, next form opens. If the username and password are not correct, it shows the error message.
When a customer search for a automobile, if the automobile is available, they will be taken to a page that shows the details of the automobile including automobile name, automobile ID, quantity, price etc. “Automobile Management System” is useful for maintaining automobiles, customers effectively and hence helps for establishing good relation between customer and automobile organization. It contains various customized modules for effectively maintaining automobiles and stock information accurately and safely.
When the automobile is sold to the customer, stock will be reduced automatically. When a new purchase is made, stock will be increased automatically. While selecting automobiles for sale, the proposed software will automatically check for total number of available stock of that particular item, if the total stock of that particular item is less than 5, software will notify the user to purchase the particular item.
Also when the user tries to sale items which are not in stock, the system will prompt the user that the stock is not enough. Customers of this system can search for a automobile; can purchase a automobile easily by selecting fast. On the other hand the stock of automobiles can be maintained perfectly by the automobile shop manager overcoming the drawbacks of existing system.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

• A principle in humanism originated
during renaissance.
•It was possible due to introduction of
printing started by Johann Gutenberg
due to this there was the spread of
learning to the masses.
Before the invention of the printing
press, knowledge belonged to priests,
monasteries and universities.
Suddenly, many thousands of people,
could learn far more than they ever
could before

24. 3.3 Industrial Revolution
What is industrial revolution?
• The industrial revolution was the
transition to new manufacturing
processes from about 1760 to 1870. It
brought radical changes to the world.
• This transition included : going from
hand production methods to machines,
new chemical manufacturing and iron
production, the increasing use of steam
power, the development of machine
tools and the rise of the factory system.

• It began in England and later
spread to France, Germany,
Netherlands, Austro Hungary and
other nations/empires
• The industrial revolution is
continuing till this day in many
ways
• Textiles were the dominant
industry of the Industrial
Revolution in terms of
employment, value of output
and capital invested
• The textile industry was also the
first to use modern production

26. The Preceding Millenia
• Farming was the main
occupation of majority of
people
• All commodities were local,
foreign goods were a rare
luxury
• Production of goods was for
‘use’, rather than profit
• Life expectancy ~ 35 years
• Travel and communication
between far off places - non
existent or extremely slow
Fig:Transformation of technology
26
27. A) Factors Leading to Industrial Revolution in
England
• Agricultural surplus in England due to new techniques in farming – the
‘agricultural revolution’ of 17th century
• the long coastline – no region is far away from a sea port. This facilitated
procurement of raw materials
• Semi skilled workers readily available
• Abundance of Coal and iron – England was an initial pioneer in these field
• A government that encouraged improvements in transportation and used its
navy to protect British trade
• The administrative and military expenditure of England was lower than other
monarchies of Europe at the time
• Resource in the form of colonies – cheap raw materials and ready markets
• Scientific inventions were facilitated and promoted
• Low population – high cost of labor

revolution
• Textile industry was the first
to be affected by industrial
revolution.
• It was completely
mechanized by 1830s
• John kay’s ‘flying shuttle’ –
weaving industry
• ‘spinning jenny’ –enabling
the spinning of 100s of
yarns together

32. C) Impact of the Industrial Revolution
Positive Impacts
• Factory system
• Standardization of factory work
methods and processes- massive
production quantities
• Means of communication and
transportation
• Roads, bridges, railway tracks and
canal – transport + travel for common
man
• Urbanization – clean water, sewerage
systems, public transport
• No more hunger and famine – surplus
food could be transported easily

34. Negative Effects
• Capitalism – philosophy of profit
maximization. Recourse of
production owned and controlled few
• Exploitation of workers – long
working hours ,no protective gear,
hazardous and unhygienic working
living conditions often led to
epidemics like Cholera
• Traditional weavers and workers
were wiped out by machines
• Child labor flourished because it
was cheaper to employ children (
and also women)

• De-industrialization of
colonies like India
• Population increase –
growth of slums, low
wages
• Europe’s population :
140 million in 1750
463 million in 1914
• Pollution- health and
environment concern

Since the discovery of modern
computer, it has been the main
tool for exchange of information.
Majority of us use technology in
some form almost everyday.
Information age has brought major
change in manufacturing
industries. Significant share of the
manufacturing industries now
produce goods related to
technology such as parts of
computers, smart phones, TVs,
etc. 37
38. The modern computer
technology to information age is
the same as mechanization was
to industrial revolution
Since majority of the human
beings now have access to the
exchange of information via
television, radio, phones,
internet etc. There has been a
big revolution in terms of
information exchange
These technologies have been
implemented in the old industrial
tasks and now have been
gradually taking over newer

• Hitler’s policy of Nazi racism
targeted Jewish people and fed on
European anti-semitism
• Hitler viewed Jews as a national
enemy and began implementing
his Final Solution—elimination of
Jewish people by sending them to
concentration camps as slave
laborers and then executing them
in gas chambers
• The extermination of nearly 6
million Jews, as well as Gypsies,
Slavs, and other people deemed
undesirable came to be known as
the Holocaust

55. Population Explosion
• Baby boom (1947-1964 US)
• Marked by significant increase of
birth rate
• Baby boomers-people born during
such period
• After WWII France pop. increased
from 41 to 50 million
• The marriage rates and family size
kept on increasing
• Also supported by Vaccination
programs and Green revolution

56. Causes of Baby Boom
• Sharp decline in the proportion of
women to remain childless(Westoff)
• Most of the immediate 1946-1947
“spike” in birth rate associated with
returning returning troops at the end of
WWII
• Younger women departed from
significant rising drift in female labour
force involvement in order to stay home
and start families
• Unified theory by Economist : male
income, the female wage, and material
aspirations(desired standard of living)
• They presumed that fertility is likely to
rise with rise in male income

57. 3.6 Rise of environmental issues
Fig.1 Natural environment
Source: Google
• Environment refers to the natural
world where living things reside and
operate. Plants, animals, sunlight,
soil, water etc are some of the key
components of environment.
• Ecology is the branch of
environmental science that deals
with how living organisms are inter-
related to one another and to their
surroundings.
• Ecosystem is a biological system of
plants, animals and other living
organisms existing and interacting
together in an area with all the other
non-living physical components 57
58. Human Impact on Environment/Ecosystem
• Destruction or modification of
habitat
• Overexploitation of resources
• Overgrazing for domestic animals
• Change in arable land
• Industrialization, Urbanization
• Mining and quarrying
• Pressure from plants
• Population pressure
• Use of drugs and chemicals
• Destruction of ecological balanceFig: Human Impact on environment:pollution

62. 3.6.1 Global Environmental Issues
Figure/graph
Fig: Melting glaciers at
Antarctica
Some of the global environmental
problems are:
• Pollution,
• Global Warming
• Overpopulation
• Natural Resource depletion
• Waste Disposal
• Climatic Change
• Loss of Biodiversity
• Deforestation
• Ocean Acidification
• Ozone layer depletion
• Acid Rain
• Water Pollution
• Urban Sprawl
• Genetic Engineering

65. 3.6) Climate Change as a Threat to Human Civilization:
Lakes formed by melting ice will
increase in size. Entire villages could
be destroyed including farming land,
roads, road and rail bridge.
Glaciers on Kilimanjaro have already
lost 82% of their ice since 1912 and
are estimated to be gone completely
by 2020.Glaciers in lofty Himalayas of
Asia are melting at a rate of 9 to 15m
per year. If the current trend continues,
there will soon come a time when
these glaciers will not exist, causing
hydropower stations to shut down.
a) Melting of glacier
Fig: Glacier AX010 estimated to disappear by 2060
65
66. b) Rising Sea Level
The rising sea level will
cause flooding along
coastal areas. Some cities
and islands that are low
lying can even get totally
submerged
According to NASA, the
average global sea level
over the last century has
risen by about 4 to 8 inches
– this means about 3.27mm
per year
Leads to saltwater intrusion
in freshwater sources
present near the coastFig: Changes in sea level since the end of the last glacial episode.

67. Fig: By 2100, the levels will be twice as high as previously predicted, causing serious problems for
many coastal cities
67
68. c) Heat waves
Causes respiratory illness, renal
illness and death, cardiovascular
diseases, complications related
to diabetes etc
Temperature is expected to rise
by 4-5*C by 2100 due to global
warming. That will translate to
more deaths.
heat waves produces wildfires
low-humidity heat waves
associated with droughts
Higher summer temperatures
will increase electricity
demand for coolingFig:Rising number of deaths due to heat related illness
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/
68
69. d) Floods
Floods displace people from their
homes, damage and destroy
infrastructure and buildings, and
take a toll on an economic level
In 2011 alone, 112 million people
worldwide were affected by floods,
and 3140 people were killed
More rains mean more floods,
human victims, destruction of
property and so on
Flood waters typically inundate
farm land, making the land
unworkable and preventing crops
from being planted or harvested
Fig:Heavy rainfall floods Bhaktapur district, Nepal, July 26
69
70. e) Drought
Extremely dry conditions that last
for months or years can lead to food
and water shortages and rising food
prices, which can contribute to conflict
New Zealand, for instance, lost
more than $3 billion from 2007-2009
because of reduced farm output from
drought
Economic losses include lower
agricultural, forests, game and fishing
output, higher food-production costs,
lower energy-production levels in
hydro plants

part of Bajura district, on Monday, September 28,
