Expected Turn within Common European Policy in South Caucasus

Rovshan Rzayev, a deputy of Milli Maclis (National Assembly) , the deputy Chairman of Parliamentary Committee on Law Policy and State-Building. He is a member of German-Azerbaijani Inter-Parliamentary Friendship Group. - Why do you think the Parliament of Germany, central player within European arena, has adopted such a serious political-legal act firmly supporting territorial integrity of Azerbaijan? - First of all, I would like, mac, to note that principled and at the same time balanced international policy course of our country is fruitful within different arenas of international political fields.

In this sense I would like to underline the special role of Ilham Aliyev as the Head of the state. Our President demonstrates brilliant qualities of a politician, possessing deep knowledge, wizard diplomatic skills and intuition. The Leader of Azerbaijan is a very far-seeing conceptualist, able to define strategic objectives of Azerbaijani state within international arena. As for Resolution, adopted by German Parliament, it was a result of sovereign will of German delegates understanding the situation.

Azerbaijani-German Inter-Parliamentary Friendship Group has been operating for a long time. Within this group, members of Azerbaijani Parliament inform their German colleagues about political, economic and social-cultural processes in our country. And naturally, this Inter-Parliamentary arena is efficiently used to notify the political elite of Germany about peaceful Azerbaijani position on Nagorno Karabakh conflict regulation. > Nagorno-Karabakh Map ...Already in the end of the XIXth century the Government of Germany monitored thoroughly economic, political, national-cultural processes within South Caucasus, and in Azerbaijan particularly.

Moreover, this European power not only observed the events and phenomena of the region, but successfully strived to spread its economic, political and cultural influence within Azerbaijan, promoting modernization of the country. Germany still preserves its principles of a leading European state that is ready to share with its economic resources for the sake of social prosperity and democracy with Post-Soviet states, institutional practice. Current dynamic German-Azerbaijani relations prove this fact perfectly.

.. - Could you please assess political and legal aspects of the Resolution adopted? - I will dwell on one of the clauses that enact the Federal German Government to “mobilize all efforts for the Parties to accomplish all resolutions of the UNO Security Council, Council of Europe on Nagorno Karabakh conflict. And these resolutions as known qualify the events happened in Nagorno Karabakh region of Azerbaijan as the occupation of Azerbaijani territory and demand for the aggressor to free captured Azerbaijani lands unconditionally and immediately”.

The unconditional territorial integrity of Azerbaijan is the main subject of the resolution of German Federal Republic Parliament. In this document Bundestag expressed the same principle position on the issue of unwilling migrants, demanding immediate creation of the conditions for their return home. Noteworthy, that Bundestag adopted this resolution by a solid vote of the representatives of all political spectrum of Germany, including ruling party and parliamentary opposition. As a matter of fact, the debates on the resolution project were intensive and included vivid speeches.

For example, the delegate from the Party of Liberal Democrats of Germany Michael Link stated openly about occupation of 20% Azerbaijani territory by Armenia. He characterized this fact as an unacceptable phenomenon greatly contradicting to the standards and principles of international law. It’s noteworthy, that facts and assessments sounded by Link were so fairly and convincingly referred to the fundamentals of common European security that his speech was welcomed with applause, the same as the speech of Christian Democrat Eduard Lintner.

The both speakers claimed that the peaceful regulation of the conflict is only possible on the ground of territorial integrity and sovereignty of Azerbaijan. I would also note the speeches of the Greens representative Rainder Steenblock and the head of German-Caucasian Inter-Parliamentary Friendship Group Steffan Reiche, who dwelled on vital importance of immediate liberation of occupied Azerbaijani territories… - What are potential political and legal Bundestag resolutions consequences in practice? - Without exaggeration we can hope for this resolution to mark a turning point within common European policy towards South Caucasian conflicts, particularly towards Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict.

I’m grounding my view on the fact that positions of Germany within common European arena are able to define the common vector of foreign European policy. I.e. that Parliaments of other states will ground on objective unbiased position of Bundestag. And primarily, I’m talking about the members of the Minsk OSCE Group. I really hope that joint efforts of all European Community will be able to settle Nagorno Karabakh conflict peacefully, preserving the principles of territorial integrity of sovereign states and democratic standards.

> Caucasus Map This will be a historic precedent, capable to establish peace even within other conflict zones of the world. And within a short-term prospect we should consider that the German Federal Republic is a Parliamentary Republic despite the existence of Presidential practice. It means that the adopted Resolution will be a conceptual political directive for current and future federal authorities, and German ministers will follow this directive with German thoroughness and precision.

Summarizing my reply I’d like to underline that the kind of achievements, resulting from a complex of political and diplomatic measures, slowly but firmly will draw Azerbaijan to peaceful and fair settlement of Karabakh conflict… Get more iinformation

Invalid B-tree Node Size May Cause Data Loss in Mac OS X

A Mac OS X hard drive can be divided into several volumes. These volumes work as individual drives and can be used to store different kinds of data and software. Every Mac volumes is made up of four general items: files, directories, file threads and directory threads. In order to define these items, Mac volumes store their records in form of the catalog file. The catalog file is stored in B-tree structure or formation. So for locating any file or directory, operating system needs to traverse entire catalog B-tree.

But in some cases, this tree or some of its nodes might get damaged. This situation renders all of your critical data inaccessible and require hard drive formatting to be resolved. The formatting removes stored data from hard drive and cause Mac data loss, which needs Mac Data Recovery to retrieve lost data. While accessing Mac OS X hard drive volumes, you might encounter the below error message: “Invalid B-tree node size" The above error occurs in HFS file system based Mac volumes, mac, while verifying the file system integrity with the help of Disk Utility.

The damaged volumes could not be repaired using Disk Utility. You encounter this error if the size of B-tree is incorrect. Total allowed size for HFS catalog file records is 512 bytes and for HFS+ catalog file records is 8 KB. In these circumstances, you need to find fix this problem by carrying out Data Recovery Mac. Resolution You can sort out this issue by following the underwritten steps: Disk Utility can not correct invalid node size problem, so use fsck in single user mode. Use third party hard drive repair applications after backing up your data.

When both of the above methods don't work, go for hard drive formatting. It corrects all of the hard drive related issues. Though, hard drive formatting is capable of resolving such issues, but it also deletes your critical data from hard drive and cause complete data loss. In such cases, Mac File Recovery software come for your rescue. These are advanced applications, which use efficient scanning procedures to thoroughly scan affected hard drive and retrieve all lost, missing and inaccessible data.

Mac Recovery tools are quite easy to use and thus do not demand sound technical skills. Stellar Phoenix Macintosh Data Recovery is the most effective solution for all Mac data loss situations. It retrieves lost files, directories, volumes and data from HFS, HFS+, HFSX, HFS Wrapper and FAT file system volumes. This software is compatible with Mac OS X 10.5, 10.4 and 10.3.9.

Cisco CCNP / BSCI Exam Tutorial: A Guide To Ipv6 Addressing

Learning IPv6 is paramount in your efforts to pass the BSCI exam and go on to earn your CCNP, and it's going to help in your real-world networking career as well. IPv6 can be confusing at first, but it's like anything else in Cisco or networking as a whole - learn one part at a time, master the fundamentals, and you're on your way to success. In today's article we're going to take a look at IPv6 address types.
In IPv4, a unicast address is simply an address used to represent a single host, where multicast addresses represent a group of hosts and broadcasts represent all hosts.

In IPv6, it's not quite that simple. There are actually different types of unicast addresses, each with its own separate function. This allows IPv6 to get data where it's supposed to go quicker than IPv4 while conserving router resources.
IPv6 offers two kinds of local addresses, link-local and site-local. Site-local addresses allow devices in the same organization, or site, to exchange data. Site-local addresses are IPv6's equivalent to IPv4's private address classes, since hosts using them are able to communicate with each other throughout the organization, but these addresses cannot be used to reach Internet hosts.

Site-local and link-local addresses are actually derived from a host's MAC address. Therefore, if HostA has HostB's IPv6 address, HostA can determine HostB's MAC address from that, making ARP unnecessary.
Link-local addresses have a smaller scope than site-local. Link-local addresses are just that, local to a physical link. These particular addresses are not used at all in forwarding data. One use for these addresses is Neighbor Discovery, which is IPv6's answer to ARP.
You can identify these and other IPv6 addresses by their initial bits:
001 - Global address
(first 96 bits set to zero) - IPv4-compatible address
1111 1111 - Multicast
1111 1110 11 - Site local
1111 1110 10 - Link Local
As a future CCNP, you're more than familiar with the reserved IPv4 address classes.

You also know that they're not exactly contiguous. The developers of IPv6 took a structured approach to IPv6 reserved addresses - any address that begins with "0000 0000" is an IPv6 reserved address. One of these is the IPv6 loopback address, and this will give you some practice with your zero compression!
IP v6 Loopback: 0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0001
Using Leading Zero Compression Only: 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1
Combining Leading Zero and Zero Compression: ::1
Zero compression looks pretty good now, doesn't it? You just have to get used to it and keep the rules in mind.

You can use all the leading zero compression you want, but zero compression ("double-colon") can only be used once in a single address.
IPv6 is here to stay, not only on your BSCI and CCNP exams, but in the real world as well. Learning it now will not only aid you in passing your Cisco exams, but in supporting IPv6 in the future.

'Toast To The West Coast' Campaign.

Los Angeles/Toronto/New York January 2 2004--With the help of Image Entertainment, Sarinjay Entertainment, KOCH Entertainment, YRB Magazine and BPM:TV, Deejay Ra's award-winning Lyrical Knockout Entertainment is honoured to present North America's largest giveaway campaign to date dedicated solely to the representation of West Coast Hip-Hop in its highest form.



Though New Year titled 'Toast To The West Coast' in honor of artists who've supported Suge Knight's Death Row Records since the independent label's founding over ten years ago, Hip-Hop Activist Raoul S.

Juneja (a.k.a. Deejay Ra) also hopes his campaign brings attention to a pressing political issue which, although constantly a concern of countless West Coast rappers, seems to have been forgotten today by the mainstream media at large - gang violence.



"One person falls victim to gang murder every 48 hours in South Central Los Angeles," is one disturbing statistic revealed. "On December 31st of 2002, Los Angeles was named the new US murder capital with over 700 gang-related murders occurring in just the previous 364 days," a following tragic statistic explains.

But for those expecting intellectual credit from a CNN, ABC or MSNBC California correspondent, a surprise may be in store when the source of the quotes is credited as CJ Mac ; an unofficial member of Ice Cube's recently reunited Westside Connection group (who labelled their sophmore Priority Records release "Terrorist Threats" to bring attention to the Bush administration's record economic and social abandonment of America's inner-city minorities).



"The press is ignoring LA gang slayings now cuz they're happening so frequent that it ain't considered breaking news no more," CJ Mac points out when describing one of the inspirations behind his new "C-Walk" documentary.

"But the decrease in media attention doesn't mean that our mothers have stopped crying or our sons & daughters aren't becoming fatherless at a rapid rate and pace."



CJ Mac's concerns are also strongly reflected in the latest investigative styled rapumentaries by powerhouse production team QD3 and his legendary father Quincy Jones - "Thug Angel," considered a collector's edition prequel to MTV's "Tupac Resurrection" theatre release due to its being told entirely in the words of the assassinated rapper's closest comrades ; and "Beef," a Ving Rhames (Marsellus Wallace in "Pulp Fiction") narrated look at the history of rap battles, hoping to discourage their all too often real-world gang altercation consequences by putting a focus back on positive artistic development.

This vital issue of economically troubled youths obtaining legitimate entrepreneurial skills through example also holds considerable weight for Westside Connection member WC, who recently crafted a hip-hop business 'crash course' entitled "All That Glitters Ain't Gold" - a well-suited "C-Walk" companion featuring extensive commentary on music & media industry vices from WC's fellow Ice Cube and Mack 10 group members plus independent business moguls such as West Coast rap founder Ice-T (currently starring, mac, in Law & Order's "Special Victims Unit").

"The LA gangs were originally formed to protect our neighbourhoods from US government agency drug imports but somewhere down the line greed just took things completely out of hand," CJ Mac explains. "These days you have to entertain kids in order to slip the knowledge in that gets a message across - our community is in desperate need of help."

1 FM, CHRY 105.5 FM and TheCyberKrib.com, as well as Vancouver's CITR 101.9 FM and HitEmUp.com plus London's CHRW 94.7 FM from January 1-14 for exclusive CJ Mac, WC, QD3, Mack 10 and Suge Knight themed giveaways.



*JUST ANNOUNCED - YRB NYC and URBAN GROOVE Giveaways!*



Following a "Divine Forces" live KPFK 90.7 FM giveaway broadcast hosted by Southern California activist Fidel Rodriguez, additional 'underground media' leaders YRB Magazine and digital TV's "Urban Groove" have also come forward to sponsor the Lyrical Knockout Entertainment 'Toast To The West Coast' campaign.

A mouthpiece for the infamous 'Yellow Rat Bastard' urban fashion store based in Soho (New York), YRB Magazine has sent shockwaves through the magazine industry for an uncensored look at street lifestyle almost entirely banned from the pages of their conglomerate-driven competitor counterparts. Extensive profiles on Hip-Hop forefathers Grand Master Flash and Ice-T ; 'HollyHood' heavyweights Spike Lee and Rosario Dawson ; and even adult entertainment legends Ron Jeremy and Jenna Jameson remain just a preview into why Deejay Ra regularly shouts-out YRB as "the world's most dangerous magazine.

"



The fact that Canada's "last urban host standing" is a personality on the country's first dance-focused BPM:TV station hasn't discouraged him from covering Hip-Hop on his "Urban Groove" Toronto show that most music hosts shy away from ; it's actually led author Dalton Higgins to push mainstream boundaries even further. From discussing ignored stellar Canada-US music collaborations ("21 Answers" featuring Tara Chase/Lil' Mo) to announcing censored historic alliances ("Black Panthers/Deejay Ra Launch 2Pac Tribute"), Urban Groove's innovative independence from basic cable offers yet another example of Canadian music enthusiasts exhausting 'all means necessary' to resist (what many predict as) an eventual complete US media takeover.
