Rsouthwestern Union RSOUTHWESTERN UNION ecor JANUARY 1991 When summer's flowers fade and fall, then bloom the bright, warm- natured pansies. They seem not to notice the drop in temperature. As robins sing songs of cheer in the spring, the pansies give warm thoughts of encouragement in the fall. Thoughts? Yes! That's the meaning of their name — it derives from the Latin pensare, to think. They're called pensamientos in Spanish. Thoughts from the the pansy bed appear to be coming from a dozen or a hundred pleasant, cheerful, little faces. They're unpretentious, hugging the ground, but they uplift their bright yellow, blue, white, and purple faces. Look closely, and you discover that although they do not parade it, many of them are wearing velvet.

  • A Study of Early Anabaptism As Minority Religion in German Fiction
    Heresy or Ideal Society? A Study of Early Anabaptism as Minority Religion in German Fiction DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Ursula Berit Jany Graduate Program in Germanic Languages and Literatures The Ohio State University 2013 Dissertation Committee: Professor Barbara Becker-Cantarino, Advisor Professor Katra A. Byram Professor Anna Grotans Copyright by Ursula Berit Jany 2013 Abstract Anabaptism, a radical reform movement originating during the sixteenth-century European Reformation, sought to attain discipleship to Christ by a separation from the religious and worldly powers of early modern society. In my critical reading of the movement’s representations in German fiction dating from the seventeenth to the twentieth century, I explore how authors have fictionalized the religious minority, its commitment to particular theological and ethical aspects, its separation from society, and its experience of persecution. As part of my analysis, I trace the early historical development of the group and take inventory of its chief characteristics to observe which of these aspects are selected for portrayal in fictional texts. Within this research framework, my study investigates which social and religious principles drawn from historical accounts and sources influence the minority’s image as an ideal society, on the one hand, and its stigmatization as a heretical and seditious sect, on the other. As a result of this analysis, my study reveals authors’ underlying programmatic aims and ideological convictions cloaked by their literary articulations of conflict-laden encounters between society and the religious minority.

    ARD-MORGENMAGAZIN – SERVICE 05.12.2014 THEMA: DIGITALE TRENDS Autor: Heinz Pohl EXPERTE IM STUDIO: ROBIN CUMPL Funktion: Morgenmagazin-Computerexperte _____________________________________________________________________ Grau oder blau? Dass dieser kleine und feine farbliche Unterschied die Netzgemeinde so sehr in Aufruhr versetzt, hätten sich die Macher der Instant-Messanger-App „WhatsApp“ sicher nicht träumen lassen. Dass nicht nur angezeigt wird, ob die Nachricht empfangen, sondern auch gelesen wurde, das ging vielen Nutzern einfach zu weit. Dabei ist das nur eine recht kleine Neuerung, die uns in der Welt der Kommunikation erwartet. Da gibt es noch viel mehr Spannendes zu entdecken. Verschlüsselung: Will jeder haben, aber die meisten sind zu bequem dazu Digitale Privatsphäre ist gerade für deutsche Nutzer ungemein wichtig. Klar, wer lässt sich schon gerne abhören oder sich in die Chatnachrichten schauen. Schnell wird da der Ruf nach verschlüsselter Kommunikation laut. Allgemeines Klagen, dass Chats so privat sind wie das Geschrei eines Marktschreiers und dass Konzerne uns ausspähen…. Dabei gibt es genug Möglichkeiten sich zu „schützen“ - man muss sie nur nutzen. Um es aber vorweg zu nehmen: Eine unknackbare Verschlüsselung ist kaum praktikabel – aber man kann es potentiellen Mitlesern schwerer machen, wenn man auf die richtigen Apps setzt. Beispielsweise wenn es um Instant-Messaging im Stile von „WhatsApp“ geht. Hier gibt es mitt- lerweile etliche Apps für unterschiedlichste Systeme, die die Nachrichten standardmäßig ver- schlüsseln. „Threema“, „Telegram“ oder „TextSecure“ sind hier nur drei Beispiele, mit denen man auf hohem Niveau ohne technisches Know-how Nachrichten gesichert austauschen kann. Solche Apps verschlüsseln Nachrichten nach dem „End-to-End“-Prinzip. Das heißt, die Daten werden auf dem Gerät des Senders kodiert und erst wieder auf dem Gerät des Empfängers dekodiert.

  • Sichere Messenger Für Behörden Auf Einen Blick K.O.-Kriterien
    Sichere Messenger für Behörden Von Dipl.-Jur. Niklas Mühleis, LL.M., Heidrich Rechtsanwälte An einem Messenger-Dienst auf dem Diensthandy führt heute fast kein Weg mehr vorbei. Seit jedoch bekannte Dienste wie WhatsApp in die Kritik geraten sind, stellt sich die Frage, inwiefern das Verwenden eines Instant Messengers eine Verletzung von Datenschutzregeln darstellen kann. Denn gerade für Ämter und Behörden gilt: Der verwendete Dienst muss den Vorgaben der Datenschutzgrundverordnung (DSGVO) entsprechen. Auf einen Blick 1 Sichere Messenger für Behörden 2 K.o.-Kriterien Datenschutz und Sicherheit 3 Fünf Messenger aus Behördensicht o 3.1 WhatsApp o 3.2 iMessage o 3.3 Telegram o 3.4 Threema o 3.5 Signal 4 Threema und Signal sind gute Lösungen 5 Nützliche Links K.o.-Kriterien Datenschutz und Sicherheit Bei einer ersten Einschätzung der Dienste hilft die Faustregel des Datenschutzes: „Jede Erhebung oder Verarbeitung von Daten bedarf der Zustimmung der betroffenen Personen.“ Je weniger Daten ein Messenger von sich aus erhebt, desto besser ist es grundsätzlich, da der Messenger dann weniger Angriffsfläche für mögliche Datenschutzverstöße bietet. WhatsApp beispielsweise greift auf sämtliche Telefonnummern in der Kontaktliste zu und gleicht auf seinen Servern ab, ob sie ebenfalls einem WhatsApp-Account zugeordnet sind. Was harmlos klingt, ist jedoch eine Datenerhebung ohne Zustimmung der betroffenen Nummerninhaber und somit nicht DSGVO-konform. Das händische Hinzufügen von Kontakten wie bei Microsofts Videotelefoniedienst Skype ist hingegen unproblematisch. Hier gibt es keinen automatischen Abgleich von Kontaktdaten, die Kontaktaufnahme findet zielgerichtet zwischen den Nutzern statt. Im Bereich der IT-Sicherheit gilt, dass verhältnismäßig sicher kommuniziert werden kann, wenn die Kommunikation durch den Messenger direkt verschlüsselt wird.
