The Papist And Mikolbe And Anyone Born Before 1976 Thread (2)

The Carmelite Friars in the western province have a uniform for their postuant guys (most men's communities don't bother).   They put them in black suits, originally with white shirts and black ties.

 

Then people thought they were Mormon missionaries.

 

Now they have changed the shirts to blue.  Friars think they have resolved the problem.

 

I think those baby Brothers are longing for the Holy Habit for more than one reason....

 

I still think all they need is the name tags.....

TCP/IP born in 1978

 

 

In 1978, The Xerox Corporation created an Internet Protocol called IP. A few months later, IP, combined with the TCPprotocol would be known as the TCP/IP, a standard system for information exchange in large networks and later the World Wide Web. 

Back in the 60's, the U.S. government’s Defence Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), searched a way to keep academic and military computers talking with each other in the event of an international conflict. They foundedARPAnet, the first decentralized network allowing a part of the network to keep working even if another one was unable to work. ARPAnet began operating in 1969, based on a protocol called NCP. 

As the ARPAnet grew larger, it became clear that NCP was not robust enough to handle the huge amount of data transferred between computers. In 1974, a team of computer scientists supervised by Vint Cerf implements a new protocol called Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). TCP was faster, easier to use, more flexible and reliable. It was introduced in 1977 for cross-network connections, and slowly began to replace NCP within the original ARPAnet. 

IP was thus added to TCP in 1978. TCP handled the correct transmission of data packets and error checking, IP took care of connecting the server and client computers to the various networks necessary to send data across the Internet. On January 1st 1983, every machine connected to ARPAnet switched from NCP to TCP/IP which became the core Internet protocol. The Internet Activities Board (IAB) was created. The University of Wisconsin created Domain Name System (DNS). Internet gradually became more 'user friendly'... You know the following of the Internet story! And NO, Al Gore did not invent the internet.

Oh the memories I have going to the drive-in with dad and brothers. And always a Godzilla movie. Mom made a grocery bag (paper) of popcorn and packed a big cooler of kool-aid.   :sad:

Is that woman conducting business at someone's wedding? A little peek into the crazy messed up world we've become.

 

Oh wait... she's probably the wedding planner...
