L2TP Network Server
In computer networking, Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) is a tunneling protocol used to support virtual private networks (VPNs) or as part of the delivery of services by ISPs. It uses encryption ('hiding') only for its own control messages (using an optional pre-shared secret), and does not provide any encryption or confidentiality of content by itself. Rather, it provides a tunnel for Layer 2 (which may be encrypted), and the tunnel itself may be passed over a Layer 3 encryption protocol such as IPsec. History Published in 2000 as proposed standard RFC 2661, L2TP has its origins primarily in two older tunneling protocols for point-to-point communication: Cisco's Layer 2 Forwarding Protocol (L2F) and Microsoft's Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP). A new version of this protocol, L2TPv3, appeared as proposed standard RFC 3931 in 2005. L2TPv3 provides additional security features, improved encapsulation, and the ability to carry data links other than simply Point-to-Poin ...

Lancaster Airport (Pennsylvania)
Lancaster Airport is a public use airport four nautical miles (5 mile, mi, 7 kilometre, km) north of the central business district of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, Lancaster, in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, United States. It is owned by the Lancaster Airport Authority. It is served by one commuter airline subsidized by the Essential Air Service program and one charter airline. The National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2021–2025 FAA airport categories, categorized it as a ''general aviation'' airport based on enplanements in 2008 (less than 2,500 per year), however it qualifies as a ''non-primary commercial service'' airport based on yearly enplanements in later years. History The Lancaster Airport was formed over 75 years ago as a private airport. In 1933 the Lancaster Joint Aviation Committee was formed and the decision made to operate a municipal airport. Using War Relief Funds and knowing that the airport would benefi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Lesch–Nyhan Syndrome
Lesch–Nyhan syndrome (LNS) is a rare inherited disorder caused by a deficiency of the enzyme hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGPRT). This deficiency occurs due to mutations in the ''HPRT1'' gene located on the X chromosome. LNS affects about 1 in 380,000 live births. The disorder was first recognized and clinically characterized by American medical student Michael Lesch and his mentor, pediatrician William Nyhan, at Johns Hopkins. The HGPRT deficiency causes a build-up of uric acid in all body fluids. The combination of increased synthesis and decreased utilization of purines leads to high levels of uric acid production. This results in both high levels of uric acid in the blood and urine, associated with severe gout and kidney problems. Neurological signs include poor muscle control and moderate intellectual disability. These complications usually appear in the first year of life. Beginning in the second year of life, a particularly striking feature of LNS is ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Far-right Politics In Australia
Far-right politics in Australia describes authoritarian ideologies, including fascism and White supremacy as they manifest in Australia. In Australia the far-right first came to public attention with the formation in 1931 of the New Guard in Sydney and its offshoot, the Centre Party in 1933. These proto-fascist groups were monarchist, anti-communist and authoritarian in outlook. These early far-right groups were followed by the explicitly fascist Australia First Movement (1941). Far-right groups and individuals in Australia went on to adopt more explicitly racial positions during the 1960s and 1970s, morphing into self-proclaimed Nazi, fascist and anti-Semitic movements, organisations that opposed non-white and non-Christian immigration, such as the neo-Nazi National Socialist Party of Australia (1967) and the militant white supremacist group National Action (Australia) (1982). Since the 1980s, the term has mainly been used to describe those who advocate for preservati ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Liberation News Service
Liberation News Service (LNS) was a New Left, anti-war underground press news agency that distributed news bulletins and photographs to hundreds of subscribing underground, alternative and radical newspapers from 1967 to 1981. Considered the "Associated Press" for the underground press, at its zenith the LNS served more than 500 papers. Founded in Washington, D.C., it operated out of New York City for most of its existence. Overview According to former LNS staffers Thorne Dreyer and Victoria Smith, the Liberation News Service "was an attempt at a new kind of journalism — developing a more personalistic style of reporting, questioning bourgeois conceptions of 'objectivity' and reevaluating established notions about the nature of news..."Dreyer, Thorne and Victoria Smith (1969),The Movement and the New Media," Liberation News Service published at ''The Rag'' archives. They pointed out that LNS "provided coverage of events to which most papers would have otherwise had no access, a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Local Nonsatiation
In microeconomics, the property of local nonsatiation of consumer preferences states that for any bundle of goods there is always another bundle of goods arbitrarily close that is strictly preferred to it.''Microeconomic Theory'', by A. Mas-Colell, et al. Formally, if X is the consumption set, then for any x \in X and every \varepsilon>0, there exists a y \in X such that \, y-x \, \leq \varepsilon and y is strictly preferred to x. Several things to note are: # Local nonsatiation is implied by monotonicity of preferences. However, as the converse is not true, local nonsatiation is a weaker condition. # There is no requirement that the preferred bundle ''y'' contain more of any good – hence, some goods can be "bads" and preferences can be non-monotone. # It rules out the extreme case where all goods are " bads", since the point ''x'' = 0 would then be a bliss point. # Local nonsatiation can only occur either if the consumption set is unbounded or open (in other words, it i ...
