Only for 8Th Graders, We Hope You Will Enjoy Reading It! Megiddo High School June 2015 MEGIDDO TIMES . Only for 8th graders, we hope you will enjoy reading it! Megiddo Times June 2015 ARTICLES Interview With the Principal of the School Liron Zakai By Chen Presser, Noa Handverger, Arad Levi and Stav Shalem 1. What do you think about the idea of school uniform? I think that there should be a uniform at school because school uniform shows equality between the students. In addition, school is a public place and it should be respected and the students should dress appropriately. 2. What do you like about the school? I like children and adolescence and I chose this age because puberty is a wonderful age. I think the school has a very good team. I also like the looks of school, there is an atmosphere of a community and people can get to know each other. 3. What changes do you think need to be done at school? I think the most important thing you need to do is to have smaller classes, meaning that the number of students in the class will be no more than 25, the students will keep the school environment clean and that learning will be more varied. 4. What do you think is a good lesson? I think what is a good lesson is a lesson in which there is a good connection between the students and the teacher. The students should have the ability to speak their mind and be active in class. 5. Do you think that the amount of trips at school is good, why? I think there should be more trips, but it costs a lot. Therefore, we have trips in which you can walk to a certain place. When you go on a trip with buses, it costs 12,000 for a grade. 6. Do you like being the school principal? It is a job with a lot of responsibility that can have an impact on children. Choosing this profession makes me feel good and I enjoy seeing their development, but it is not always simple and convenient. Test Title Your text can go here. Your text can go here.

  • The Israel/Palestine Question
    THE ISRAEL/PALESTINE QUESTION The Israel/Palestine Question assimilates diverse interpretations of the origins of the Middle East conflict with emphasis on the fight for Palestine and its religious and political roots. Drawing largely on scholarly debates in Israel during the last two decades, which have become known as ‘historical revisionism’, the collection presents the most recent developments in the historiography of the Arab-Israeli conflict and a critical reassessment of Israel’s past. The volume commences with an overview of Palestinian history and the origins of modern Palestine, and includes essays on the early Zionist settlement, Mandatory Palestine, the 1948 war, international influences on the conflict and the Intifada. Ilan Pappé is Professor at Haifa University, Israel. His previous books include Britain and the Arab-Israeli Conflict (1988), The Making of the Arab-Israeli Conflict, 1947–51 (1994) and A History of Modern Palestine and Israel (forthcoming).

  • Forensics Analysis of Xbox One Game Console Ali M
    Notice: This work was carried out at University of South Wales, Digital Forensics Laboratory, Pontypridd, United Kingdom (Sep 2015) Forensics Analysis of Xbox One Game Console Ali M. Al-Haj School of Computing University of Portsmouth United Kingdom Abstract Games console devices have been designed to be an entertainment system. However, the 8th generation games console have new features that can support criminal activities and investigators need to be aware of them. This paper highlights the forensics value of the Microsoft game console Xbox One, the latest version of their Xbox series. The Xbox One game console provides many features including web browsing, social networking, and chat functionality. From a forensic perspective, all those features will be a place of interest in forensic examinations. However, the available published literature focused on examining the physical hard drive artefacts, which are encrypted and cannot provide deep analysis of the user’s usage of the console. In this paper, we carried out an investigation of the Xbox One games console by using two approaches: a physical investigation of the hard drive to identify the valuable file timestamp information and logical examination via the graphical user interface. Furthermore, this paper identifies potential valuable forensic data sources within the Xbox One and provides best practices guidance for collecting data in a forensically sound manner. Keywords: Xbox One, Embedded System, Live Investigation, Games Console, Digital Forensics console forensic analysis has become such an important and independent part of digital forensic investigations. Introduction There are over 13 million Xbox One game consoles in Video game consoles have become a significant part of worldwide circulation (Orland, 2015).

  • 1948 Arab‒Israeli
    1948 Arab–Israeli War 1 1948 Arab–Israeli War מלחמת or מלחמת העצמאות :The 1948 Arab–Israeli War, known to Israelis as the War of Independence (Hebrew ,מלחמת השחרור :, Milkhemet Ha'atzma'ut or Milkhemet HA'sikhror) or War of Liberation (Hebrewהשחרור Milkhemet Hashikhrur) – was the first in a series of wars fought between the State of Israel and its Arab neighbours in the continuing Arab-Israeli conflict. The war commenced upon the termination of the British Mandate of Palestine and the Israeli declaration of independence on 15 May 1948, following a period of civil war in 1947–1948. The fighting took place mostly on the former territory of the British Mandate and for a short time also in the Sinai Peninsula and southern Lebanon.[1] ., al-Nakba) occurred amidst this warﺍﻟﻨﻜﺒﺔ :Much of what Arabs refer to as The Catastrophe (Arabic The war concluded with the 1949 Armistice Agreements. Background Following World War II, on May 14, 1948, the British Mandate of Palestine came to an end. The surrounding Arab nations were also emerging from colonial rule. Transjordan, under the Hashemite ruler Abdullah I, gained independence from Britain in 1946 and was called Jordan, but it remained under heavy British influence. Egypt, while nominally independent, signed the Anglo-Egyptian Treaty of 1936 that included provisions by which Britain would maintain a garrison of troops on the Suez Canal. From 1945 on, Egypt attempted to renegotiate the terms of this treaty, which was viewed as a humiliating vestige of colonialism. Lebanon became an independent state in 1943, but French troops would not withdraw until 1946, the same year that Syria won its independence from France.
