Transparent authentication methodology in electronic education
No full textIn the context of on-line assessment in e-learning, a problem arises when a student taking an exam may wish to cheat by handing over personal credentials to someone else to take their place in an exam, Another problem is that there is no method for signing digital content as it is being produced in a computerized environment. Our proposed solution is to digitally sign the participant’s work by embedding voice samples in the transcript paper at regular intervals. In this investigation, we have demonstrated that a transparent stenographic methodology will provide an innovative and practical solution for achieving continuous authentication in an online educational environment by successful insertion and extraction of audio digital signatures

“A Fun and Funky Disco Pastiche”: David Crowder Confronts Evangelical Performance Anxiety
No full textWithin evangelical communities, “worship” and “performance” are often diametrically opposed, with the latter instantly evoking damning connotations of pretense or artifice. This leads many artists to utilize a strategy of disavowal to legitimize their music-making as worship—erasing the “performance” category in order to highlight the ultimate worshipful aim of their actions. David Crowder, especially during his lengthy tenure with the David Crowder*Band (DC*B), places performative elements front and center through calculated uses of sound in live performances and on recordings. My analysis in this essay will focus on the ways that David Crowder legitimates “performance” as its own distinct musical space, using a dialectical move to navigate the performance/worship problem by emphasizing its divide rather than simply trying to erase it

A Semantic Matching Approach for Distributed RDF Data Query on a Knowledge Bus
No full textDuring the past several years, semantic web technologies have been applied to facilitate the sharing of data in new and unexpected ways. Various heterogeneous data are assigned well-defined meaning by ontologies and expressed with RDF triples so that they are able to be integrated and extracted across multiple sources. As the order of magnitude of triples hosted is higher and higher, and considering other essential issues (e.g. copyright, security) in application domains, a distributed RDF data management approach is more appropriate for knowledge sharing and integration. In this paper, we present a knowledge bus infrastructure - a general solution of locating and extracting knowledge elements from distributed sources on-demand rather than loading all of RDF triples into a large central triple store in advance. A semantic matching approach is discussed to support the key function of automatic knowledge source location. The knowledge bus infrastructure as well as the semantic matching approach has been adopted in the CFMS project, enabling a rapid information search and access for the engineering domain

David Zimmer Christmas letter
No full textThis Christmas letter written November 30, 1999, by David Zimmer is titled "Season's Greetings from the last of the Red-Hot-Santas!" It features an illustration of Santa Claus with a guitar, and a summary of Zimmer's year.
David Zimmer (1929-2005) was born in Harrisburg, Ohio. He enlisted in the U.S. Army and served for two years during the Korean War at the Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio, where he performed in drag for wounded soldiers. After the war, he returned to Ohio. Zimmer performed as Dolly Divine, a name inspired by the song "Hello Dolly." In 1964, he established the Berwick Ball with Orn Huntington, another important early gay activist in Central Ohio. The Ball began as a formal Halloween costume ball that provided a safe space to gather and enjoy drag shows for the gay community each year; over the years, it grew into an annual Halloween tradition and an important fundraiser for the AIDS movement and other charities. During the 1970s, Zimmer was also known for hosting lavish parties at his Harrisburg home. In 1989, he moved to the German Village area of Columbus where he remained active in the community. During the 1990s, Zimmer continued to perform in and out of drag and commissioned costume designer Dick Frank to make elaborate outfits. Zimmer worked for Huntington National Bank for 39 years and was a member of the Harrisburg United Methodist Church, Veterans of Foreign Wars and the German Village Society
