Slave Hack is a browser-based hacking simulation created by M2H. In the game, you are given a VPC, a virtual computer, which you then use to seek out NPCs and other player-controlled VPCs, to "slave." A "slaved" computer is accessible at any time, and can be used to spam, sell warez, or launch DDoS attacks. Players can also access and modify the files on a slave's computer.

A VPC is identified by its IP address. This address can be changed, and is also not connected in any way to the player's login, making it nearly impossible to determine which VPC belongs to which player. IP addresses are left whenever a player carries out some sort of action, from logging into a VPC to downloading a file to installing a virus. Players must ensure they delete their IP from the VPC's log to ensure other player's cannot access it.

File types

.ana Computer Analyzer A computer analyzer will give the user information about the hardware of the VPC it is used on. A higher level computer analyzer will give more accurate information. Currently, computer analyzers go up to level 4.1.

.av Anti-Virus An Anti-Virus program allows the user to remove .vspam, .ddos and .vshare virus files from his/her VPC. Currently, Anti-Virus programs only go up to 4.5

.crc Password Cracker A password cracker is used to crack the password of VPCs. A higher level cracker will perform faster and have a higher chance of success. Currently, password crackers go up to level 4.5.

.dec File Decrypter A file decrypter will decrypt a file. File decrypters can only decrypt files that were encrypted by an encrypter of equal or lower level than the file decrypter. Currently, file decrypters go up to level 4.5.

.enc File Encrypter A file encrpyter will encrypt a file, preventing it from being used or downloaded. In order to be unencrypted, a decrypter of equal or higher level must be used. Currently, file encrypters go up to level 4.5.

.exe Executable Executable files carry out a special function when used. Currently, the only executable is forum.exe, which, when used on a group server, will give the user access to the group server's forum. There are no levels for executable files.

.fc FTPCash An FTPcash file is required on the owner of a slave's VPC in order for that slave to sell warez. The level of the FTPCash must be equal to or greater than the level of the warez sharing virus in order to collect income. Currently, FTPCash files go up to level 4.5.

.fwl Firewall A firewall protects a VPC by preventing players with a waterwall of lower level from attempting to crack into it. Higher level firewalls take longer to crack, providing more protection to its owner. Currently, firewalls go up to level 4.5.

.hdr File Hider A file hider can be used on software to prevent other players from seeing them. They are most useful for hiding viruses or key files the player will need. Once hidden, only players with a file seeker of equal or higher level can view and unhide files. Currently, file hiders go up to level 4.5.

.mailer Mailer A mailer file is required on the owner of a slave's VPC in order for that slave to send spam. The level of the mailer must be equal to or greater than the level of the spam virus in order to collect income. Currently, mailer files go up to level 4.5.

.rddos DDoS Remote A DDoS remote is required on the owner of slave's VPC in order for the owner to launch a DDoS attack. The remote will only include DDoS viruses that are equal to or lower than the level of the remote when launching the attack. Currently, DDoS remotes go up to level 0.6.

.rip Warez A warez file is required on a VPC, along with an installed warez sharing virus, in order to generate income by selling warez. The level of warez has no real significance however the higher level of warez the more money it will generate. However the rareness of the warez also effects the rate at which it generates money. The highest current level is 0.7. For information on warez prices look for "Report.txt. ;)

.skr File Seeker A file seeker can be used to view hidden files as well as unhide them. In order to view or unhide a hidden file, the level of the file seeker must be equal to or higher than the level of the file hider used to hide the software. Currently, file seekers go up to level 4.5.

.txt Text File A text file can be created and edited by players, and simply contains text and a title in a notepad form. Text files are most importantly part of the riddle trail, a series of riddles players can solve to find NPCs and advance through the levels of software.

.vddos DDoS Virus A DDoS virus can be uploaded to a slave's VPC, and then installed, allowing the owner of the slave to launch a DDoS attack against the VPC of another user or NPC. A DDoS attack will cause damage to the hardware of the target, as well as possibly delete files. A DDoS virus will require an antivirus of equal or higher level to remove. Currently, DDoS viruses go up to level 0.6.

.vshare Warez Sharing Virus A warez sharing virus can be uploaded to a slave's VPC, and then installed, allowing the owner of the slave to sell warez, generating income. A warez virus also requires that a warez file exist on the VPC of the slave. Different warez will generate different amounts of money, based on how many other slaves are selling the same warez. A warez sharing virus will require an antivirus of equal or higher level to remove. Currently, warez sharing viruses go up to level 4.0.

.vspam Spam Virus A spam virus can be uploaded to a slave's VPC, and then installed, allowing the owner of the slave to send spam, generating income. A spam virus will require an antivirus of equal or higher level to remove. Currently, spam viruses go up to level 4.5.

.wwl Waterwall A waterwall is a firewall bypasser that allows its user to attempt to crack a VPC with firewall that has a level equal to or lower than the waterwall. The higher the level of the waterwall, the faster the crack will occur. Currently, waterwalls go up to level 4.5.

Levels

the levels of software are varied and range from 0.1 to 4.5. The higher the level the larger the file size, but it also has certain advantages over lower level software. For example, a virus hidden by a 0.3 File Hider can be viewed by a 0.4 Seeker, but a virus hidden by a 0.6 File Hider cannot.

Before Dangerhouse compilations Volumes One and Two, on Frontier Records, and the "Live at the Masque" compiliations issued first on Flipside Records and later re-issues, in extended forms, on Exene Cervenka's Year One vanity label, the Dangerhouse recorda legacy was made public by a mysterious bootlegger. "Me Want BReakfast" was an attempt to make more widely available the obscure output of the Dangerhouse Records Catalog, a label which supported the most fruitful and interesting output of the Los Angeles punk era.

Odyssice is a Dutch Music Band. The name is a fantasy name associated with Greek mythology. It was founded in 1986 by Bastiaan Peeters (guitar), André Hubbeling (keyboards) and Alan Natele (drums). The group had an enormous start when 'Track One' was played on the Dutch radio-show Countdown Café in 1987. Well known bands like IQ, Pendragon, Oblique and other prog-bands were played in this radio-show. The phone never stopped ringing. Kees Baars host of 'Countdown Café' had never seen such a reaction. The music of Odyssice is quite unique and can be described as dark clouds of string-ensembles and beautiful long guitar-solos. The guitar-solos add a vocal quality to this impressive instrumental music. All these ingredients make the music colourful and illustrative.

The first member changes had occurred in 1989. Bart Kühne replaced Alan and Erik Aafjes was added on bass. 'Losing Her' was their new track on the 'Exposure'-LP from the magazine 'Sym-Info', and according to 'Sym-Info's' office 'Losing Her' was one of the best songs on the album. The huge interest lad to an invitation to perform at a 'Sym-Info's' festival at 't Noorderligt in Tilburg on June 16th 1989. The Noorderligt performance was a huge success. Requests for the live tape of that show were enormous and it was sold out in no time.

The band was musically successful but musical differences caused them to disappear from spotlight for some time. Then Bastiaan and Bart decided to reincarnate Odyssice with new members. After a long period of try-outs, including singers, Odyssice became a quartet again. The band became complete with the addition of bassist Pascal van de Pol and keyboard-wizard Jeroen van der Wiel.

In 1997 the debut CD was released. The mini-album 'Moondrive' was well received by both the prog-critics and prog-fans world-wide. Orders from all over the world were placed, including Brasil, US, UK, France, Spain, Italy, Germany, Poland, and even the out-corners of Asia.

The release was followed by a series of performances kicking off at the very first ProgFarm in Bakkeveen-NL. Tivoli (ProgWorld), De Lantaarn (SympHel) and Hedon (with Pallas) followed shortly after.

After two fruitful years and a sold out album Odyssice decided to take it slow in 1999. They worked on new material for the follow up to 'Moondrive'. The new songs were finished at the end of that same year and in January 2000 the recording of 'Impression' took place.

Shortly after the contracts were signed with Cyclops records, the new Odyssice album 'Impression' was released world-wide on November 1st. Once again the album has been well received by both prog-critics and prog-fans.

In 2001 there were two performances in which Odyssice played tracks from 'Moondrive' and 'Impression'.

Due to personal problems at the end of 2001 everything around the band became very quiet. And mid 2002 Pascal decided to leave the band and focus on a complete different music-style, leaving Menno, Bastiaan and Jeroen without bass-player.

The album 'Moondrive' was well regarded by fans and there were a lot of requests for a re-make. Odyssice agreed with Cyclops records to do just that and the new re-issue contained a multimedia part with live video's and several other goodies. This album was released June 2003.

Finding a suitable new bass-player turned out to be a more challenging task than first expected. Resulting finally at the end of 2004 the arrival of bass-player Peter Kosterman.

After a slow start in 2005 when the band moved their rehearsal room to a new location, which had to be completely re-decorated, the band are now fully in action writing new material for a new album to be released in 2006.

Dimensiunea internaţională a unui caz de solidaritate catolică: Monseniorul Vladimir Ghika în închisorile comuniste din România biserica greco-catolica/ romanian greek catholic church/ church under communism

Dimensiunea internaţională a unui caz de solidaritate catolică: Monseniorul Vladimir Ghika în închisorile comuniste din România

“Se stingeau pe rând aleşii neamului, pe care cei fărădelege i-au strâns în temniţe, pentru că îşi iubeau neamul şi ţara, îşi iubeau credinţa părinţilor. Se stingeau în temniţele Sighetului şi în toate temniţele sămănate în ţara întreagă, prefăcută în temniţa unui popor întreg, asuprit şi călcat în picioare, despuiat de libertate şi de toate drepturile sale şi batjocorit peste măsură”.

(Credinţa noastră este viaţa noastră. Memoriile Cardinalului Dr. Iuliu Hossu, Ed. Viaţa Creştină, Cluj-Napoca, 2003, p.275)

Procesul sovietizării României este presărat cu numeroase drame, colective sau individuale, cărora le-au căzut adesea victimă instituţii sau oameni ai bisericii. Mai ales istoria Bisericii Catolice din Europa Centrală şi de Est este plină de exemple. S-a scris deja mult despre suferinţa provocată în înverşunarea lor totalitară de autorităţile comuniste româneşti, în totală contradicţie cu marile, generoasele obiective proclamate de aparatul de propagandă: înlăturarea nedreptăţii sociale, egalitate între oameni, umanism, libertatea opţiunilor de credinţă, înflorirea spiritului creator. Intre mulţi preoţi şi prelaţi loviţi de pumnul dur al comunismului temporar triumfător, figura luminoasă a Monseniorului Vladimir Ghika ocupă un loc aparte. A suportat rigoarea brutală a aparatului represiv comunist şi şi-a aflat moartea în întunecimea temniţei la o vârstă foarte înaintată, cu cine ştie câtă deznădejde în suflet din partea celor omeneşti. Despre acest personaj, cu o aureolă parcă accentuată de trecerea vremii, va fi vorba în cele ce urmează, încercând, pe baza unor documente din Arhivele de la Ministerul Afacerilor Externe de la Paris, reconstituirea unor iniţiative cu efecte internaţionale care s-au înfiripat, izvorâte din conştiinţa solidarităţii catolice, cu scopul de a-l ajuta. Monseniorul Vladimir Ghika şi apostolatul său s-au bucurat de atenţia biografilor şi comentatorilor. Este totuşi utilă o prezentare succintă a acestei vieţi sfârşită în martiriu, aducând poate completări oportune la ceea ce se ştie. S-a născut dintr-o familie ilustră, ortodox devenit prin convertire catolic, preot al Bisericii Romane de rit latin, protonotar apostolic, prieten personal – după anumite surse – al Papei Pius al XII-lea . Monseniorul Vladimir Ghika era ofiţer al Legiunii de Onoare, probabil în consecinţa eforturilor depuse împreună cu fratele său Dimitrie, pentru organizarea unei legiuni româneşti în Primul Război Mondial, care să lupte de partea Puterilor Aliate şi Asociate după încheierea păcii separate de către România . Foarte ataşat Franţei, el a întreţinut relaţii strânse cu membrii legaţiei acesteia, şi după al Doilea Război mondial, fiind capelanul personalului. După război, diplomaţii de la Legaţia Franţei la Bucureşti mai frecventau biserica Lazariştilor ascultând serviciul divin celebrat de Monseniorul Ghika. In atmosfera tulbure, grea, din anii postbelici, acestor membri ai Legaţiei Franceze le împărtăşea gândurile sale pline de îngrijorare cu privire la soarta Bisericii Catolice din România în perspectiva sesizabilă a sovietizării ţării . Ca preot, Monseniorul Ghika fusese la Paris rector la biserica numită de un abate francez care l-a cunoscut bine, L’Eglise des Etrangers, 33 rue de Sèvres, unde a desfăşurat o susţinută activitate de evanghelizare, sau reevanghelizare a zonelor mărginaşe ale Parisului. Locuia într-un fel de capelă baracă, fiind respectat până şi de comunişti, dintre care pe unii, afirmă o sursă, i-ar fi şi convertit . In România, prelatul s-a ocupat cu stăruinţă de leproşi, cu abnegaţie şi dispreţ faţă de riscuri, folosindu-se de cunoştinţele sale medicale pentru a le pansa rănile. După mărturia aceluiaşi abate francez, Nicolas Masloff, ar fi făcut vindecări miraculoase cu ajutorul relicvei „ de la Sainte Epine” pe care o deţinea. A fost lăudat de toţi cei care l-au cunoscut pentru marea sa bunătate şi pentru curajul de a refuza să părăsească ţara după abdicarea forţată a regelui Mihai, aşa cum a făcut fratele său Dimitrie Ghika, fost ministru de externe al României, care s-a exilat împreună cu familia regală şi locuia la Geneva, 2 Chemin de la Gradelle . Un al doilea personaj, deja introdus în scenă, este abatele Masloff, preot în Valence, Région Rhône Alpes, departamentul Drôme, unde locuia la Villa Saint Félix, pe strada Montplaisir, la numărul 53. Cine era părintele Masloff ? De bună seamă cineva care nu iubea comunismul. Iată cum se exprima el despre comunişti: “Rien de bon pour la France ne sortira de toutes ces conférences avec les bolcheviks. Car il est parfaitement inutile et dangereux de se compromettre avec des voleurs et des assassins, qui n’ont aucune parole. Ces conférences profitent aux bolcheviks seuls. A quoi sert de discuter avec des escrocs qui n’ont aucune parole et qui sont bien décidés de vous tromper? ”. Aceste sentimente par să-i fi fost inspirate de mizerii pe care i le făcuseră, pare-se, înainte comuniştii, probabil cei din Franţa, la care face aluzie, fără a aduce precizări, într-o scrisoare adresată, se pare, ministrului de externe al Franţei, pe atunci Georges Bidault, la 15 aprilie 1953: “J’ai eu beaucoup à souffrir de la part des communistes. Je profite de l’occasion pour vous remercier encore une fois de votre charité à mon égard. Car c’est à vous que je dois surtout ma libération. Maintenant je suis gracié complètement et il ne reste plus rien de ma condamnation ”. Ce condamnare, pentru ce ? Ce legătură are ea cu comuniştii ? Să fie vorba de eventuale incriminări pentru colaborare ? Greu de crezut, deoarece abatele Nicolas Masloff fusese deportat în Germania împreună cu Bruno de Solages, rector al Institutului Catolic din Toulouse şi prieten al ministrului. Este mânat în demersurile sale de sincere sentimente creştineşti, de o adânc trăită recunoştinţă pentru Monseniorul Ghika, al cărui fiu spiritual se declară, afirmând, fără a face nici de această dată precizări, că îi datorează salvarea şi sacerdoţiul. Au mai fost implicate în demersurile legate de întemniţarea Monseniorului Vladimir Ghika şi alte persoane şi anume : Georges Bidault, ministru de externe al Franţei, fost prim-ministru, Renaud Sivan şi Pierre Francfort, miniştri ai Republicii Franceze la Bucureşti, şefi ai Legaţiei din România, Jean Laloy, consilier de ambasadă, director al Direcţiei Afacerilor Orientale la Direcţia Politică Generală a Ministerului de Externe francez ; oameni ai bisericii, prelaţi francezi şi papali : Monseniorul Bruno de Solages rectorul Institutului Catolic din Toulouse, fost deportat în Germania, Cardinalul Tisserant, prefect al Congregaţiei Orientale la Vatican, Părintele François, preot al Bisericii Lazariştilor din Bucureşti ; funcţionari ai altor instituţii : contele de Rougé, preşedinte al liniei Societăţilor Crucii Roşii, Geneva, 26 Avenue de Beau Séjour, contele de Briey, director al Biroului Internaţional al Muncii la Geneva, ginerele lui Dimitrie Ghika. Au fost implicate instituţii : Legaţia Franţei la Bucureşti, Sub-direcţia Europei Orientale a Direcţiei Politice Generale Europa a Ministerului Afacerilor Externe francez . In România, cu toate şicanele pe care a trebuit să le suporte după instalarea deplină a puterii comuniste la Bucureşti, Monseniorul Vladimir Ghika a fost lăsat să-şi continue activitatea până în anul 1952. La Legaţia Franţei, care întâmpina, ca şi celelalte reprezentanţe diplomatice din România, serioase dificultăţi de informare, s-a pierdut urma Monseniorului Ghika, până în ziua de 24 noiembrie 1952, când o telegramă trimisă la Quai d’Orsay constata arestarea prinţului prelat. “Il se confirme – se spunea în depeşă – que Monseigneur Ghika, qui avait disparu au début de la semaine dernière a été arrêté le 18” . Semnificativ, diplomaţii francezi de la Bucureşti sugerau Ministerului lor de Externe să anunţe vestea la Sfântul Scaun, dar cu toată discreţia posibilă, evitându-se orice publicitate, în interesul prelatului şi al părintelui François, împreună cu care locuise şi care nu fusese încă în situaţia de a suporta dificultăţi din partea autorităţilor comuniste. Aceasta cu toate că Legaţia, membrii săi, preoţii catolici se aflau – ştim acum cu certitudine datorită documentelor de arhivă – sub atenta supraveghere a serviciilor secrete comuniste . Vestea a ajuns repede la Vatican, completând dimensiunea internaţională pe care o dobândise cazul Monseniorului Ghika prin simpla preluare şi vehiculare a informaţiilor de către Legaţia Franţei. Precizând că era vorba de un “…missionnaire des plus éminents, ami personnel du Saint-Père” telegrama Legaţiei de la Bucureşti introduce chestiunea în angrenajul relaţiilor diplomatice. Dând curs informaţiei venite de la Bucureşti, în 26 noiembrie 1952, deci la numai două zile, o altă telegramă, trimisă de această dată de Direcţia Generală Politică, Europa, din Sub-direcţia Europei Orientale de la Quai d’Orsay, cerea ambasadorului francez pe lângă Sfântul Scaun, Vladimir d’Ormesson, să facă acolo cunoscute cele întâmplate. Menţiunea „ très urgent” de pe document semnalează importanţa acordată transmiterii acestei ştiri, nu numai la Sfântul Scaun, privat de orice posibilitate de informare directă prin expulzarea de către regimul comunist din România a personalului Nunţiaturii de la Bucureşti în vara lui 1950 . Renaud Sivan, ministrul Franţei la Bucureşti, bănuia că arestarea Monseniorului Ghika putea fi pusă în legătură cu încercarea regimului de a determina pe Monseniorul Cisar, vicar apostolic la Bucureşti, să se retragă, pentru a pune în locul lui un preot mai înclinat să colaboreze cu autorităţile comuniste . Aceasta este o informaţie eronată, Monseniorul Cisar neocupând o asemenea funcţie la data respectivă. După câteva luni, în decursul cărora informaţiile, greu de procurat de altfel, despre soarta Monseniorului Ghika lipsesc din documentele de la Quai d’Orsay, la 15 aprilie 1953 abatele Nicolas Masloff, deja menţionat, trimite, după cum am văzut, o scrisoare, una dintr-o corespondenţă mai amplă, se pare, pe care, o întreţine pentru ajutarea Monseniorului Ghika, ministrului de externe francez Georges Bidault. Simţindu-se foarte îndatorat prelatului român, părintele Masloff îi ceruse şi rectorului Institutului Catolic din Toulouse să scrie ministrului despre cazul Monseniorului Ghika pentru a-i cere ajutorul. Se baza şi pe prietenia ministrului cu rectorul de Solages . Cu un devotament rar întâlnit, abatele se străduieşte să convingă pe interlocutorul său epistolar despre calităţile personale ale Monseniorului Ghika, scoţând în evidenţă apostolatul său. Nu uită să amintească un argument care trebuia să aibă efect asupra unui ministru francez şi anume ataşamentul consecvent al prinţului faţă de Franţa şi interesele sale. Abatele Masloff desfăşoară o adevărată pledoarie în favoarea unui cleric bătrân, în vârstă de 79 de ani, care, spunea el, nu va putea suporta „ les horreurs des geôles communistes” . Foarte îngrijorat de soarta prelatului român, în legătură cu care fusese informat de consilierul de ambasadă Jean Laloy dar despre care nu mai ştia nimic de o vreme, abatele Masloff îşi pune nădejdea în destinatarul scrisorilor sale, el putând face ceva pentru clericul întemniţat având „.... plus de possibilités”. Invocă sentimentele de caritate catolică ale acestuia. Vine şi cu o propunere concretă, pentru care numai Ministrul de Externe putea găsi cale de înfăptuire: prinţul Ghika în schimbul unui comunist român. Avansează opinia că regimul comunist din România l-ar fi expulzat pe prelat, dacă monseniorul nu ar fi fost cetăţean român. Abatele îşi punea speranţa în puterea de convingere a Monseniorului Bruno de Solages . Intervenţia acestuia nu este însă atestată documentar. Istoricul ar profita mult dacă s-ar putea folosi retrospectiv de o „ machine à lire la pensée”. Am cunoaşte astfel adevăratele intenţii şi planuri ale celor implicaţi din diplomaţia franceză. Sigur este că la numai cinci zile de la data scrisorii, deci în scurtă vreme, la 20 aprilie 1953 Cabinetul Ministrului trimite Direcţiei Europa epistola preotului din Valence însoţită de un borderou pe care cineva (să fi fost ministrul?) adăugase cu creionul „ Mr. Laloy connaît bien M. Masloff; il estime qu’il n’y a pas lieu de répondre pour le moment” . Mai târziu, la 19 mai 1953, Direcţia Generală Politică, Europa, Direcţia Europei Orientale de pe lângă Ministerul de Externe Francez redactează o „Notă pentru Directoratul General al Afacerilor Politice”, în care se anunţă arestarea la 18 noiembrie 1952 a Monseniorului Vladimir Ghika, elogiindu-i activitatea, ataşamentul faţă de Franţa şi Sfântul Scaun, „ et à son ministère”.” Notre Légation –se spune în document¬- entretenait de longue date avec ce prélat des relations confiantes; peu avant son arrestation, Mgr. Ghika faisait encore part à notre ministre à Bucarest de ses vives préoccupations concernant la situation de l’Eglise Catholique en Roumanie. Depuis le mois de novembre, la Direction d’Europe, comme les représentants de la France à Bucarest n’ont cessé de rechercher de quelle manière il pourrait être porté assistance à Mgr. Ghika. Ces eforts seront poursuivis dans toute la mesure du possible” . Aceasta este o frumoasă declaraţie de intenţii, dar fără consistenţă. Nu se preconizează nimic concret. Caracterul vag al acesteia sugerează că se fac afirmaţii doar pentru a avea un punct de vedere. Nu se specifică ce fel de eforturi se vor desfăşura şi care era măsura acelui „posibil”. Este posibil ca Legaţia Franţei să fi încercat să caute căi pe care putea fi ajutat prelatul român încă din noiembrie 1952 şi putem presupune acest lucru şi despre Direcţia Europa, dar atestarea lor documentară trebuie să mai aştepte noi cercetări, căci la 19 mai 1953 cele două instituţii se aflau încă în căutarea unor asemenea mijloace . Este neîndoielnic că la nivelul conducerii Ministerului de Externe de la Paris, ca şi printre alţi funcţionari ai săi, şi în unele medii sociale, exista interes pentru soarta unui prelat român care apărase interesele Franţei. Subdirecţia Europei Orientale, care transmisese Directorului general al Afacerilor Politice informaţiile, puţine, trimise de la Bucureşti cere din nou Legaţiei Franţei, ministrului Renaud Sivan, noutăţi suplimentare, în cazul în care ele existau, la 9 iunie 1953 . Dintr-o analiză întocmită la Quai d’Orsay, aflăm că Renaud Sivan putuse trimite puţine informaţii, unele nu prea credibile nici la Legaţie: prelatul român petrecuse o perioadă de detenţie la Văcăreşti, ceeea ce era posibil, după care ar fi fost transferat la Snagov. Părintele François fusese informat de o infirmieră că era bine tratat, ceea ce este îndoielnic, că-şi continua apostolatul cu deţinuţii şi gardienii , ceea ce este mai greu de crezut, pentru cine ştie cum au fost trataţi în închisorile comuniste alţi preoţi şi prelaţi catolici. Se ridică fireşte întrebarea: cine era acea infirmieră, cum putuse intra în închisoare, care este partea intoxicării cu ştiri false în care serviciile secrete comuniste erau atât de eficiente? Se observă, pe de-o parte, dificultatea cu care se informau diplomaţii francezi, şi alţii, în capitala României, pe de alta lipsa unor iniţiative care să plece de la Quai d’Orsay spre Bucureşti pentru salvarea bătrânului prelat. Exista, se pare, la Ministerul de Externe al Franţei şi o anumită reţinere, care a împiedicat posibilele demersuri oficiale concrete în favoarea Monseniorului Ghika. Ce făcea între timp abatele Masloff, protagonistul atât de devotat al iniţiativelor de ajutorare a Monseniorului Ghika? Din perspectiva documentelor păstrate la Quai d’Orsay, el a petrecut o perioadă de tăcere. Câtă dezamăgire ar fi resimţit dacă ar fi aflat că tocmai Jean Laloy, cel care putea să joace un rol în demersurile eventuale destinate să ducă la eliberarea patronului său spiritual, fusese de părere să nu se răspundă scrisorii sale din 15 aprilie 1953! El revine cu o scrisoare, în 22 februarie 1954, trimisă aceluiaşi ministru, după aprecierile noastre, bazate pe unele detalii din această corespondenţă, Georges Bidault, căruia i se adresează acum cu „Domnule preşedinte”(?). Nu ştia dacă monseniorul Bruno de Solages răspunsese cererii sale de a interveni pe lângă ministru. Ştia însă că iniţiativa sa nu avusese rezultate palpabile. Prelatul român se afla tot în închisoare dar abatele Masloff ştia, sau credea că ştie, de la cardinalul Tisserant cu care luase legătura între timp, că protonotarul apostolic era încă în viaţă. Ar fi avut veşti că Monseniorul Ghika trăia şi contele de Rougé, Preşedintele liniei Societăţii Crucii Roşii, căruia îi scrisese la Geneva, Avenue du Beau Sejour nr.26. S-a aflat însă că pachetele de alimente trimise de Dimitrie Ghika, prin intermediul Crucii Roşii, nu-i parveneau . Abatele Masloff enumeră din nou meritele Monseniorului Ghika, intuind zădărnicia primei sale încercări. Arată curajul cu care a înfruntat pericolul ce-i ameninţase libertatea şi viaţa, abnegaţia cu care a nesocotit riscul contaminării îngrijindu-i pe numeroşii leproşi din România. Credea că în comparaţie cu alte cazuri mult mai dificile (Stepinac în Yugoslavia, Vâşinski în Polonia) din lumea comunistă, pentru Monseniorul Ghika se puteau găsi căi de rezolvare. Propune să se încerce a se obţine fie ieşirea prelatului din România, pentru a se aşeza la Roma într-o casă religioasă, fie plasarea lui în domiciliu forţat în România, unde regimul de viaţă era mai suportabil, cu drepul de a primi colete, fie autorizarea lui de către autorităţile comuniste româneşti de a reveni la surorile secularizate ale ordinului St. Vincent de Paul unde, spune el, trăise înainte de arestare . Despre cardinalul Tisserant părintele din Valence spune că nu putea interveni de teamă că un demers al Vaticanului putea avea efecte contrare, ceea ce era plauzibil după expulzarea diplomaţilor papali din Romînia, în atmosfera de isterie anticatolică întreţinută de guvernele comuniste. Masloff face din nou apel la sentimentele creştineşti ale ministrului, ale cărui posibile bune oficii nu-şi făcuseră încă efectul. Continua să creadă că Legaţia Franţei la Bucureşti putea face ceva pentru nefericitul preot român . O ironie amară a sorţii făcea ca la data de 22 februarie 1954, când abatele Masloff semna scrisoarea trimisă la Ministerul de Externe de la Paris, Monseniorul Ghika să fie mort deja de câteva săptămâni; decedase la 16 ianuarie 1954 în închisoarea de la Jilava, ştirea morţii sale ajungând mult mai târziu în Franţa. “On me précise – scria la 26 iunie 1954 Ministerului de Externe de la Paris Jean Francfort – qu’en fait Monseigneur Ghika est décédé le 16 Janvier dernier à la prison de Jilava. La famille n’en a été informée par le Conseil Populaire que le 22 Juin”. La Minister cineva a notat pe telegrama “à l’arrivée” a lui Francfort că ştirea urma să fie transmisă la Sfântul Scaun, Washington, Londra, Moscova, aici, evident, nu guvernului sovietic ci ambasadei Franţei - o dovadă în plus a semnificaţiei internaţionale a martiriului prelatului român. Abatele Masloff? Cu toate eforturile sale de salvare a prinţului Vladimir Ghika zădărnicite, el va lupta în continuare pentru beatificarea, poate canonizarea acestuia, care, deşi sunt legate de martiriul său formează un subiect aparte . Rămâne să ne întrebăm de ce autorităţile franceze nu au intervenit pentru un personaj cunoscut în lume şi apreciat în Franţa? Această întrebare poate sta în relaţie cu o alta, care o precedă: de ce a fost arestat Monseniorul Ghika atunci, în 1952, şi nu mai degrabă? Să încercăm un răspuns la această a doua întrebare. Abatele Masloff afirma în scrisorile sale că prinţul Vladimir Ghika fusese arestat doar datorită naşterii sale aristocratice şi calităţii de prelat al Bisericii Romane . Este şi aceasta o parte a explicaţiei, tot atât de adevărată pe cât de adevărat este că în România el reprezenta un stâlp solid, un simbol al catolicismului detestat de comunişti. Dar răspunsul nu este complet. Monseniorul Ghika militase pentru unirea bisericilor sub conducerea Papei, ceea ce contravenea intereselor regimului comunist de la Bucureşti de a realiza această “unire” prin suprimarea Bisericii Greco-Catolice şi absorbirea credincioşilor şi a preoţimii în Biserica Ortodoxă Română, proces în calea căruia stăteau şi după 1948, carisma şi prestigiul prelatului de naştere princiară . Aşa ceva guvernul comunist nu putea admite şi din toate aceste motive monseniorul Ghika a fost aruncat în închisoare, unde şi-a găsit moartea. Dar de ce numai în 1952? Poate pentru că năpasta s-a abătut mai întâi asupra greco-catolicilor, ţinta de căpătâi, şi el era romano-catolic, poate pentru că nu a fost socotit de la început periculos, poate şi datorită hazardului, a caracterului haotic al loviturilor administrate de organele represive ale noii puteri adversarilor prezumtivi, poate din toate aceste motive. Cât despre neangajarea autorităţilor franceze suntem limitaţi la presupuneri. Este posibil, pe de o parte, ca acestea să fi socotit orice demers de prisos, dat fiind că oricum nu puteau forţa nota la Bucureşti. Diplomaţii francezi de aici ştiau probabil că forţa morală şi statura spirituală a monseniorului Ghika îl făceau periculos în ochii regimului. Relaţiile sale foarte apropiate cu Legaţia Franţei au putut contribui, de asemenea, la întemniţarea lui. El pare a fi fost sursa cea mai autorizată şi asiduă de informare a diplomaţilor francezi şi prin aceasta a Vaticanului despre situaţia catolicilor din România. Mai există încă o raţiune, sugerată mai tîrziu, indirect, de un document din 19 decembrie 1955: nu voiau să compromită atât cât mai rămăsese din prezenţa religioasă franceză în România, evitând „une aggravation de la situation des catholiques dans ce pays et du desservant de notre paroisse ”. Este tocmai ceea ce încercaseră membrii Legaţiei Franţei de la prima semnalare a arestării Monseniorului Vladimir Ghika: nici o publicitate, discreţie, protejarea părintelui François, aşa cum arătam la început. „Credinţa noastră este viaţa noastră”, spunea episcopul Iuliu Hossu; „credinţa noastră este nădejdea noastră”, ar fi putut spune Monseniorul Vladimir Ghika, singura nădejde.

The miniature thermionic valve (vacuum/electron tube) is a development of the older style of valve in which the pins for connecting the valve to circuitry were mounted in a bakelite base, into which the valve envelope ("bulb") was glued. It was invented in 1938. Miniature valves are rather more space-efficient. They do not have a seperate base, rather the pins are mounted directly in the glass base of the envelope. This forces the sealing tip, which was previously at the bottom of the envelope unseen inside the bakelite base, to be moved to the top of the envelope, creating the classic tear drop-like shape, seen in valves such as the ECC82, EF86 and 6CA4. However, making valves smaller and more compact reduced the Voltage that they could work at, and also the power of the filament, so the older style continued to be used for high power rectifiers and audio/radio amplifier output stages. Developent continued, and led to the subminiature valve, the "acorn" valve (named due to its shape), and valves in D.I.L. packages.

A complex number is said to be hypertranscendental number if it can not a value at an algebraic point of a function which is the solution of an algebraic differential equation with coefficients in ${\displaystyle Z[r]}$ and with algebraic initial conditions.

The term was introduced by Mordukhai-Boltovski in "Hypertranscendental numbers and hypertranscendental functions" (1949).

The term is related to transcendental numbers, which are numbers which are not the solution to an algebraic equation with integer coefficients. The number ${\displaystyle e}$ is transcendental but not hypertranscendental, as it can be generated from the solution to the differential equation ${\displaystyle y'=y}$.

Gaylord Texan Resort & Convention Center is a hotel and convention center, opened in Grapevine, Texas, in 2004. The attached convention center has 400,000 sq. feet of total meeting space. It also has a total of 1,500 guest rooms.

Gaylord Texan is owned and operated by Gaylord Hotels, a division of Gaylord Entertainment Company, and is a sister hotel to the Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center and Gaylord Palms Resort & Convention Center.

Gaylord Texan was originally to be named Opryland Hotel Texas. However, when Gaylord Entertainment decided to rebrand their Opryland Hotels division to Gaylord Hotels on October 26, 2001, the name Gaylord Texan was given to the Texas hotel.

To local residents, Gaylord Texan is best known for its Christmas programming with large-scale events like Lone Star Christmas and ICE!, an attraction hand-carved from two million pounds of ice.

Hotel Areas

Gaylord Texan is built around a 4.5-acre glass-covered atrium, divided into four areas, each with their own activities and guest rooms.

• Lone Star Atrium the main portion of the hotel.
• River Walk Atrium
• Hill Country Atrium
• Lone Star Tower is dubbed a "hotel with a hotel," as it has 15,344 ft² of dedicated meeting space and the most luxurious accommodations in the resort, with 26 luxury suites. Several shops and boutiques can be found on the ground floor of this locale.

Convention Center

The Gaylord Texan Convention Center has 400,000 sq. feet of dedicated meeting space. More than half of that space is the Exhibition Hall, which has 210,300 ft² including prefunction space. It also features a permanent 101- by 40-ft. performing stage with green rooms and dressing rooms connected to its Lone Star Ballroom.

Behind The Scenes

With over 1800 employees in this one resort, little do most realize that just below the property lays a secret "tunnel" much, where employees referred to as "STARS" travel about without much notice or disruption to guests or events in the hotel. Internal offices in accounting, reservations, security, etc, are all located in the tunnel area, which is actually on ground level.
