# NetBoot

**NetBoot** was a technology from Apple which enabled Macs with capable firmware (i.e. New World ROM) to boot from a network, rather than a local hard disk or optical disc drive. NetBoot is a derived work from the Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP), and is similar in concept to the Preboot Execution Environment. The technology was announced as a part of the original version of Mac OS X Server at Macworld Expo on 5 January 1999. NetBoot has continued to be a core systems management technology for Apple, and has been adapted to support modern Mac Intel machines. NetBoot, USB, and FireWire are some of the external volume options for operating system re-install. NetBoot is not supported on newer Macs with T2 security chip or Apple silicon.

## Process

A disk image with a copy of macOS, macOS Server, Mac OS 9, or Mac OS 8 is created using System Image Utility and is stored on a server, typically macOS Server. Clients receive this image across a network using many popular protocols including: HTTPS, AFP, TFTP, NFS, and multicast Apple Software Restore (ASR). Server-side NetBoot image can boot entire machines, although NetBoot is more commonly used for operating system and software deployment, somewhat similar to Norton Ghost.

Client machines first request network configuration information through DHCP, then a list of boot images and servers with BSDP and then proceed to download images with protocols mentioned above.

Both Intel and PowerPC-based servers can serve images for Intel and PowerPC-based clients.

## NetInstall

NetInstall is a similar feature of macOS Server which utilizes NetBoot and ASR to deliver installation images to network clients (typically on first boot). Like NetBoot, NetInstall images can be created using the System Image Utility. NetInstall performs a function for macOS similar to Windows Deployment Services for Microsoft clients, which depend on the Preboot Execution Environment.

## Legacy

Mac OS 8.5 and Mac OS 9 use only BOOTP/DHCP to get IP information, followed by a TFTP transfer of the Mac OS ROM file. Next, two volumes are mounted via AppleTalk over TCP on which the client disk images reside. All in all, the Classic Mac OS uses three images; a System image which contains the operating system and may contain applications. Next a private image (or scratch disk) is mounted in an overlay over the read-only System image. Finally, an applications image is mounted. This image, however, may be empty.

### Area overview

Jhargram subdivision, the only one in Jhargram district, shown in the map alongside, is composed of hills, mounds and rolling lands. It is rather succinctly described in the *District Human Development Report*, 2011 (at that time it was part of Paschim Medinipur district), “The western boundary is more broken and picturesque, for the lower ranges of the Chhotanagpur Hills line the horizon, the jungle assumes the character of forest, and large trees begin to predominate. The soil, however, is lateritic, a considerable area is unproductive, almost uninhabited, especially in the extreme north-west where there are several hills over 1000 feet in height. The remainder of the country is an almost level plain broken only by the sand hills.” 3.48% of the population lives in urban areas and 96.52% lives in the rural areas. 20.11% of the total population belonged to scheduled castes and 29.37% belonged to scheduled tribes.

Note: The map alongside presents some of the notable locations in the subdivision. All places marked in the map are linked in the larger full screen map.

## Demographics

According to the 2011 Census of India, Netai had a total population of 1,946 of which 987 (50%) were males and 959 (49%) were females. Population in the age range 0–6 years was 224. The total number of literate persons in Netai was 1,351 (69.42% of the population over 6 years).

# Neural backpropagation

**Neural backpropagation** is the phenomenon in which, after the action potential of a neuron creates a voltage spike down the axon (normal propagation), another impulse is generated from the soma and propagates towards the apical portions of the dendritic arbor or dendrites (from which much of the original input current originated). In addition to active backpropagation of the action potential, there is also passive electrotonic spread. While there is ample evidence to prove the existence of backpropagating action potentials, the function of such action potentials and the extent to which they invade the most distal dendrites remain highly controversial.

## Mechanism

When the graded excitatory postsynaptic potentials (EPSPs) depolarize the soma to spike threshold at the axon hillock, first, the axon experiences a propagating impulse through the electrical properties of its voltage-gated sodium and voltage-gated potassium channels. An action potential occurs in the axon first as research illustrates that sodium channels at the dendrites exhibit a higher threshold than those on the membrane of the axon (Rapp et al., 1996). Moreover, the voltage-gated sodium channels on the dendritic membranes having a higher threshold helps prevent them triggering an action potential from synaptic input. Instead, only when the soma depolarizes enough from accumulating graded potentials and firing an axonal action potential will these channels be activated to propagate a signal traveling backwards (Rapp et al. 1996). Generally, EPSPs from synaptic activation are not large enough to activate the dendritic voltage-gated calcium channels (usually on the order of a couple milliamperes each) so backpropagation is typically believed to happen only when the cell is activated to fire an action potential. These sodium channels on the dendrites are abundant in certain types of neurons, especially mitral and pyramidal cells, and quickly inactivate. Initially, it was thought that an action potential could only travel down the axon in one direction (towards the axon terminal where it ultimately signaled the release of neurotransmitters). However, recent research has provided evidence for the existence of backwards-propagating action potentials (Staley 2004).

To elaborate, neural backpropagation can occur in one of two ways. First, during the initiation of an axonal action potential, the cell body, or soma, can become depolarized as well. This depolarization can spread through the cell body towards the dendritic tree where there are voltage-gated sodium channels. The depolarization of these voltage-gated sodium channels can then result in the propagation of a dendritic action potential. Such backpropagation is sometimes referred to as an echo of the forward propagating action potential (Staley 2004). It has also been shown that an action potential initiated in the axon can create a retrograde signal that travels in the opposite direction (Hausser 2000). This impulse travels up the axon eventually causing the cell body to become depolarized, thus triggering the dendritic voltage-gated calcium channels. As described in the first process, the triggering of dendritic voltage-gated calcium channels leads to the propagation of a dendritic action potential.

It is important to note that the strength of backpropagating action potentials varies greatly between different neuronal types (Hausser 2000). Some types of neuronal cells show little to no decrease in the amplitude of action potentials as they invade and travel through the dendritic tree while other neuronal cell types, such as cerebellar Purkinje neurons, exhibit very little action potential backpropagation (Stuart 1997). Additionally, there are other neuronal cell types that manifest varying degrees of amplitude decrement during backpropagation. It is thought that this is due to the fact that each neuronal cell type contains varying numbers of the voltage-gated channels required to propagate a dendritic action potential.

## Regulation and inhibition

Generally, synaptic signals that are received by the dendrite are combined in the soma in order to generate an action potential that is then transmitted down the axon toward the next synaptic contact. Thus, the backpropagation of action potentials poses a threat to initiate an uncontrolled positive feedback loop between the soma and the dendrites. For example, as an action potential was triggered, its dendritic echo could enter the dendrite and potentially trigger a second action potential. If left unchecked, an endless cycle of action potentials triggered by their own echo would be created. In order to prevent such a cycle, most neurons have a relatively high density of A-type K+ channels.

A-type K+ channels belong to the superfamily of voltage-gated ion channels and are transmembrane channels that help maintain the cell's membrane potential (Cai 2007). Typically, they play a crucial role in returning the cell to its resting membrane following an action potential by allowing an inhibitory current of K+ ions to quickly flow out of the neuron. The presence of these channels in such high density in the dendrites explains their inability to initiate an action potential, even during synaptic input. Additionally, the presence of these channels provides a mechanism by which the neuron can suppress and regulate the backpropagation of action potentials through the dendrite (Vetter 2000). Pharmacological antagonists of these channels promoted the frequency of backpropagating action potentials which demonstrates their importance in keeping the cell from excessive firing (Waters et al., 2004). Results have indicated a linear increase in the density of A-type channels with increasing distance into the dendrite away from the soma. The increase in the density of A-type channels results in a dampening of the backpropagating action potential as it travels into the dendrite. Essentially, inhibition occurs because the A-type channels facilitate the outflow of K+ ions in order to maintain the membrane potential below threshold levels (Cai 2007). Such inhibition limits EPSP and protects the neuron from entering a never-ending positive-positive feedback loop between the soma and the dendrites.

## History

Since the 1950s, evidence has existed that neurons in the central nervous system generate an action potential, or voltage spike, that travels both through the axon to signal the next neuron and backpropagates through the dendrites sending a retrograde signal to its presynaptic signaling neurons. This current decays significantly with travel length along the dendrites, so effects are predicted to be more significant for neurons whose synapses are near the postsynaptic cell body, with magnitude depending mainly on sodium-channel density in the dendrite. It is also dependent on the shape of the dendritic tree and, more importantly, on the rate of signal currents to the neuron. On average, a backpropagating spike loses about half its voltage after traveling nearly 500 micrometres.

Backpropagation occurs actively in the neocortex, hippocampus, substantia nigra, and spinal cord, while in the cerebellum it occurs relatively passively. This is consistent with observations that synaptic plasticity is much more apparent in areas like the hippocampus, which controls spatial memory, than the cerebellum, which controls more unconscious and vegetative functions.

The backpropagating current also causes a voltage change that increases the concentration of Ca2+ in the dendrites, an event which coincides with certain models of synaptic plasticity. This change also affects future integration of signals, leading to at least a short-term response difference between the presynaptic signals and the postsynaptic spike.

## Functions

While many questions have yet to be answered in regards to neural backpropagation, there exists a number of hypotheses regarding its function. Some proposed function include involvement in synaptic plasticity, involvement in dendrodendritic inhibition, boosting synaptic responses, resetting membrane potential, retrograde actions at synapses and conditional axonal output. Backpropagation is believed to help form LTP (long term potentiation) and Hebbian plasticity at hippocampal synapses. Since artificial LTP induction, using microelectrode stimulation, voltage clamp, etc. requires the postsynaptic cell to be slightly depolarized when EPSPs are elicited, backpropagation can serve as the means of depolarization of the postsynaptic cell.

Backpropagating action potentials can induce Long-term potentiation by behaving as a signal that informs the presynaptic cell that the postsynaptic cell has fired. Moreover, Spike-Time Dependent Plasticity is known as the narrow time frame for which coincidental firing of both the pre and post synaptic neurons will induce plasticity. Neural backpropagation occurs in this window to interact with NMDA receptors at the apical dendrites by assisting in the removal of voltage sensitive Mg2+ block (Waters et al., 2004). This process permits the large influx of calcium which provokes a cascade of events to cause potentiation.

Current literature also suggests that backpropagating action potentials are also responsible for the release of retrograde neurotransmitters and trophic factors which contribute to the short-term and long-term efficacy between two neurons. Since the backpropagating action potentials essentially exhibit a copy of the neurons axonal firing pattern, they help establish a synchrony between the pre and post synaptic neurons (Waters et al., 2004).

Importantly, backpropagating action potentials are necessary for the release of Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF). BDNF is an essential component for inducing synaptic plasticity and development (Kuczewski N., Porcher C., Ferrand N., 2008). Moreover, backpropagating action potentials have been shown to induce BDNF-dependent phosphorylation of cyclic AMP response element-binding protein (CREB) which is known to be a major component in synaptic plasticity and memory formation (Kuczewski N., Porcher C., Lessmann V., et al. 2008).

## Algorithm

While a backpropagating action potential can presumably cause changes in the weight of the presynaptic connections, there is no simple mechanism for an error signal to propagate through multiple layers of neurons, as in the computer backpropagation algorithm. However, simple linear topologies have shown that effective computation is possible through signal backpropagation in this biological sense.

# Newbold High School

**Newbold High School** was a racially segregated public high school for African American students active from 1952 until 1968, and located in Lincolnton, Lincoln County, North Carolina.

## History

Newbold High School opened on April 20, 1952, to serve African American students from Lincoln County, North Carolina. While the county seat, Lincolnton, had one high school in its city school system for African Americans, Oaklawn High School, the rest of the county did not. Rather than open additional schools, the county school system built a new school which would serve students at Oaklawn as well as students from the rest of the county. Construction of the new campus suffered several setbacks as the county prioritized other projects, with cuts that reduced the number of classrooms and facilities. Only years later were the additional classrooms added, along with a gym.

The school was named for Nathan Carter Newbold, a white educator who oversaw the development of schools for African Americans in North Carolina during the Jim Crow era of school segregation. It was to be called Newbold Union School but Union was dropped because a school for whites with that name existed. Its first principal was George E. Massey.

Like other African American schools during segregation, Newbold struggled for public resources, receiving second-hand books from other schools and relying on community support to buy basic school supplies and equipment. It nonetheless maintained a band, drama club, a public speaking contest, and a well-regarded home economics department. Despite not having a gymnasium at first, it developed a track and field and football programs. Lewis A. Sanders, Albert Stover, and Rudolph Young were prominent football players, and James W. Harper coached. In the 1960–61 season the football team were Southwest District Champions. Its school mascot was a panther and the school colors were blue and yellow.

The effects of school consolidation on achievement were studied at the school. Some students volunteered to bus other students to elementary school before arriving at the school.

An education rally was held at the school in 1962. Wood School principal and author Charles Arthur Shipp Sr. graduated from the school March 27, 1962.

The school closed in 1968 with desegregation and was repurposed as the **G. E. Massey Elementary School**, honoring the high school's first principal.

## Legacy

An alumni reunion was held in 2003. In 2022, both Lincolnton Town Council candidates were alumni.

# New York Liberties

The **New York Liberties** were one of six teams in the Major League Volleyball franchise. The league began in 1987 and ended short of completing a full season in 1989. Players consisted of former collegiate All Americans and Olympians.

The team played at Hofstra University and the Westchester County Center.

## Results

The Liberties placed 3rd in 1987 and 4th in 1988.

## Coaching

The Liberties were led by legend and Hall of Fame player/coach Mary Jo Peppler who was the setter in 1987 and for most of 1988 except in a few matches in which former Olympian and later beach player/partner Karolyn Kirby filled in.

## Former players

Players for this team were: Jo Ellen Vrazel (RS)(88-89); April Chappel (OH) (1987); Sandy Aughinbaugh (OH) (87-88); Karolyn Kirby (OH) (replaced Chappel in 1987-88); Wendy Stevenson S/Def. Specialist)(87-88); Laura Smith (MB); Ellen Crandal Orner (MB)(1988); Ellen Bugalski (MB)(1987); Nina Mathies (1988); Lira Vance (1988);

## About former players

* Ellen Crandal Orner, a native of Pennsylvania, attended Penn State and has an ice cream flavor after her called the "Crandal Crunch." Orner was traded to the NY Liberties in 1988 from the Dallas Belles (that franchise ended in 1987). Ellen started MLV with the Chicago Breeze in 1987.
* Laura Smith's father died during her second year with the team and dedicated one of her matches in his memory. Smith was also known for her competitive and feisty spirit was a great asset to the Liberty block.
* April Chapple was a powerful OH for NY but left the team prematurely in 1987 due to a torn cartilage in her knee. At the time of her departure she was ranked third for kills in the league. She was replaced by Carolyn Kirby.
* Sandy Auginbaugh started season two while attending law school and missed some practice with the team. Auginbaugh was Major League Volleyball's best server in 1987, a designation that had she won it in 1988 would have netted her $5,000.00 extra as the league began with pay incentives for performance.

# Newbury String Players

The **Newbury String Players** was an English string orchestra founded in 1940 by the composer Gerald Finzi, to give concerts at a period, during the Second World War, when there was little live music. The members were mostly amateur players, with a few professional players.

## History

From 1939 Finzi lived in Ashmansworth, a few miles from Newbury. He conducted the orchestra from its founding, returning regularly for rehearsals or concert after he was called up. It received an annual grant from the Arts Council.

The first concert was at the church in Enborne, Berkshire, and the orchestra continued to play in churches, halls and schools in the south of England. Finzi, selecting the music for concerts, included his own music, and neglected compositions of Ivor Gurney and of 18th-century composers William Boyce and Richard Mudge. A notable concert was a performance of Finzi's *Dies Natalis* with tenor Wilfred Brown.

After Finzi's death in 1956 the orchestra was conducted by his son Christopher Finzi.

Ralph Vaughan Williams, wrote to *The Times* about Finzi after his death, "Finzi had a great sense of the social responsibilities of the artist. This led him, during the war, to found the Newbury String Players..." who "have continued ever since to bring good music to the small villages of the neighbourhood which otherwise would have been without any such artistic experience."

**Nevis Television** is a TV channel of Nevis.

## History

The Department of Information developed out of the Nevis Island Administration’s Press and Public Affairs arm in 2001. The Department of Information is responsible for keeping the general public aware of the plans and activities of the Nevis Island Administration. At launch, the Department's primary responsibility was documenting major events and public programs, which were shared through local print media and radio. The “Nevis Television” media brand was quickly developed and began broadcasting on local terrestrial television in 2001. In its early days, the channel's main programming consisted of a weekly news roundup, called “The Week Gone By”. This later evolved into the Nevis News Cast (NNC), which began airing on Nevis Television three (3) times weekly. Other NTV programming in the station’s early years included rebroadcasts of the House of Assembly sittings, addresses by Ministers of Government and community interest features.

By 2003, The Nevis News Cast had become a main source of trustworthy news and had developed a faithful viewership. The move to a nightly newscast was well received, along with newer program features such as “Eye on Agriculture”, “Up Close”, and “Get Real”. The Nevis Television Crew was a reliable presence at all major NIA functions, including school events, and the annual CULTURAMA festival. Daily programming was available from 18:00 – 22:00 every day.

As an increasing number of Departments within the Nevis Island Administration began to see the NTV platform as a viable option to reach their intended audiences, this pushed the development of different shows which sought to inform, educate and entertain a captive and growing audience. As production capacity increased and technologies bloomed, NTV branched into an online service, making the station available internationally, and keeping Nevisians abroad well connected to developments at home. Full streaming of the channel became available in 2015, and in 2017 NTV embarked into a full 24 hour programming lineup.

The Department of Information continues to meet the challenge of providing accurate, up to date and newsworthy information to the public, while also seeking to enhance and promote the cultural fabric of the island.

title: Nevis Peak

abstract: Nevis Peak is a potentially active volcano which is located in the centre of the island of Nevis of the Federation of Saint Kitts and Nevis in the West Indies. The stratovolcano rises to a height of 985 metres (3,232 ft) and is the highest point on the island. There have been no eruptions since prehistory, but there are active fumaroles and hot springs on the coastal slopes of the island, and these represent low-level volcanic activity. The steeper parts of Nevis Peak are impossible to farm. During the height of the island's exploitation, when every available scrap of arable land was under sugar cane, the mountain, which occupies a large part of the island's interior, was never really changed in any way and therefore most of the original flora and fauna is still intact. At the lower levels of the mountain there is dry forest and humid forest, and then above that rain forest. At the top of the peak, which is covered with cloud most of the time, there is cloud forest, a montane habitat. It is possible to hike to the top of the peak and back, but the route has some challenging sections. Hikers need to be quite physically fit to complete this route, and for safety's sake, it is necessary to go with a qualified guide. On days when the peak is completely free of clouds, there are remarkable views from the top of the mountain, not only of Nevis itself, but also out over the Atlantic Ocean, the Caribbean Sea, and the many surrounding islands of the Leeward Island chain. The fauna of the mountain includes birds such as the red-necked pigeon and the bridled quail-dove, as well as many troops of the African green vervet monkey, which was introduced in the historical past and has become naturalized. The flora of Nevis Peak includes five different kinds of tree fern, some Heliconia species, and a number of small wild orchid species. The five parishes of Nevis meet at the summit.

# Newport News Middle Ground Light

**Newport News Middle Ground Light** is a lighthouse near the Monitor–Merrimac Memorial Bridge–Tunnel (MMMBT) on Interstate 664 in Hampton Roads. It is the oldest caisson lighthouse in Virginia.

## History

An L-shaped shoal sits in the middle of major shipping lanes just off the coast of Hampton Roads, Virginia, creating a hazard in the 1880s as ships drew more water. The US Lighthouse Board identified the need for a lighthouse in this area in 1887, and, after several economizing changes to the design, construction began in 1890 and was completed in the spring of the following year. This was the first sparkplug lighthouse built in Virginia.

The station was automated in 1954, at which time the light and fog bell were altered. The light flashed a white 3,000 candlepower every six seconds, and the fog bell sounded one stroke every 15 seconds, instead of two. The lighthouse was also downgraded along with these changes; the Coast Guard reclassified it as a "second class tall nun buoy". This also marked the beginning of a period of neglect. In 1979, the now unstaffed light was struck by a tugboat, and an inspection in 1982 showed serious damage to the first floor gallery and leaks into the foundation. Broken and jammed windows and doors allowed seagulls into the interior. Some repairs were made, but more significant changes were made in 1986–1987 when the light was converted to solar power. The new beacon was placed outside the lantern, and, the following year, a more substantial renovation was done in an effort to remedy the damage and neglect. However, inspections in 1992 and 1994 showed that the decline of the light continued.

Construction of the MMMBT produced a background to the light which tended to obscure it. In 2000, the beacon was returned to the interior of the lantern, and the characteristic changed to red in order to make it more visible against the bridge's lights.

This light was among a group offered to nonprofit groups under the National Historic Lighthouse Preservation Act in 2005. There were no takers, and it was put up for auction and purchased by the Billingsley and Gonsoulin families with a final bid of $31,000. The families renovated the lighthouse and use it as a vacation home.
