Internet Country Codes Top Level Domains Internet Country Codes Top Level Domains A long time ago (1996) in a galaxy far far away, it wasn't difficult to be out on the web and know exactly what part of the world you were visiting. If you were on a .com site, you were in the States. And there weren't too many country code extensions to worry about. Now, a .com site could be anywhere in the world. The varied country codes, known as TLD's (Top Level Domains), also give web masters and designers a greater choice of name combinations to use for their sites, but it depends on which extension you want. Some country code administrators only allow local sites to utilize them. An example of a country code that has been released for general registration is .tv. It's the country code originally designed to be the official addressing for the tiny island nation of Tuvalu - population of around eleven thousand. The country code is probably one of its biggest exports! The crumbling of international barriers is wonderful, we are now truly a global community, but our community is getting pretty confusing. Who is who and where the hell are they? There's not much room for nationalistic pride any more..... perhaps that isn't such a bad thing? Seems that nationalism has caused our species more angst than any other subject. But, I digress. When you do come across those "weird" extensions, have you ever wondered what they actually signify? The following is a list of all current country extensions. US Based TLD's: .com - Commercial .edu - Educational .gov - US Government .int - International Organisations .mil - US Dept of Defense .net - Networks .org - Organisations .pro - Professionals .biz - Businesses .info - Informational .aero - Travel .museum - Museum .coop - Co-operative .name - Personal names A .lr Liberia .ac Ascension Island .ls Lesotho .ad Andorra .lt Lithuania .ae United Arab Emirates .lu Luxembourg .af Afghanistan .lv Latvia .ag Antigua and Barbuda .ly Libyan Arab Jamahiriya .ai Anguilla .al Albania M .am Armenia .ma Morocco .an Netherlands Antilles .mc Monaco .ao Angola .md Moldova .aq Antarctica .mg Madagascar .ar Argentina .mh Marshall Islands .as American Samoa .mk Macedonia .at Austria .ml Mali .au Australia .mm Myanmar .aw Aruba .mn Mongolia .az Azerbaijan .mo Macau .mp Northern Mariana Is.

Systad, Jan Ove Bustnes, Signe Christensen-Dalsgaard, Sébastien Descamps, Kjell-Einar Erikstad, Arne Follestad, Sveinn Are Hanssen, Magdalene Langset, Svein-Håkon Lorentsen, Erlend Lorentzen, Hallvard Strøm, © SEAPOP 2019 SEAPOP Short Report 1-2019 Key-site monitoring in Norway 2018, including Svalbard and Jan Mayen Breeding success The 2018 breeding season was, overall, not good for Norwegian seabirds (Table 1a) with a third of the populations having a poor breeding success, as was the case in 2017. Fortunately, several populations did do well (38% compared to 34% in 2017). When comparing pelagic and coastal populations, the former were more successful (43% good, 22% poor) than the coastal (33% good, 33% poor). Among the pelagic species, northern gannets and razorbills fared best with a good breeding success recorded in two out of two and three of four populations respectively. Common guillemots also did well with five of eight populations having good breeding success. The three puffin colonies monitored in the Barents Sea produced many chicks while at Røst breeding success was poor for the 12th year in a row. At the two other colonies in the Norwegian Sea, it was moderate. Little auks on Bjørnøya did well, but only moderately so on Spitsbergen. The fulmar’s success on Jan Mayen was good, but poor on Røst and Sklinna. Brünnich’s guillemots had a poor breeding season on Jan Mayen, a good one on Bjørnøya and a moderate one on Spitsbergen.

  • Guide to WIPO's Services for Country Code Top-Level Domain Registries
    Guide to WIPO’s services for country code top-level domain registries Domain name registrations across country code top-level domains (“ccTLDs”) serve as important local business identifiers. Their number continues to increase over time. When trademark-related disputes arise, ccTLD registry operators often prefer to outsource case administration to WIPO – at no cost – for neutral and independent decision-making. Guide to WIPO’s services for country code top-level domain registries This guide presents ccTLD registry operators and national authorities with information on how to resolve third-party domain name disputes in a cost- and time-saving manner. The guide explains the main policy design features of a successful Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) system. It also provides information on the WIPO-created Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP) and the possibility to tailor the UDRP for specific ccTLD requirements. 3 Guide to WIPO’s services for country code top-level domain registries WIPO can assist ccTLDs in a number of ways There are a variety of national, economic, cultural, and linguistic considerations that are important for the ccTLD community. To curb the abusive registration of domain names that conflict with intellectual property (IP) rights, and in particular to resolve disputes between third parties, WIPO’s ccTLD Program can assist ccTLDs in the following ways: Advice on Advice on Tailoring and registration new dispute updating terms and resolution existing dispute conditions policies resolution policies Free

  • Country Code Top-Level Domain (Cctld) Project for State of Kuwait
    Country Code Top-Level Domain (ccTLD) Project for State of Kuwait Communication and Information Technology Regulatory Authority (CITRA) assigns, organizes, manages and codes the top domain names for the State of Kuwait (.kw) for access to the Internet in accordance with best practices and standards in this field, ensuring the efficiency, fairness and transparency for the beneficiaries. This includes the regulation and implementation of all regulations, policies and procedures in relation to the operation of the country code's top-level domain. What is a domain name? A domain name is the address and identity of any website. It is a means of accessing websites directly without having to search them in the search engines. The domain name is a system of converting IP addresses and numbers used to locate computers on the Internet. Domain names provide a system of easy-to-use Internet addresses that can be translated through the DNS - Domain Name System (a system that stores information related to Internet domain names in a decentralized database on the Internet) on the network. What is a ccTLD? Country code top-level domains or the highest country encoding range: used by an independent country or territory. It consists of two letters, such as .eg for Egypt or. sa for Saudi Arabia or .kw for the State of Kuwait. The registration of a domain name (.kw) became easy and smooth process after the establishment and launch of the electronic registration system for the management and operation of domains through the Communication and Information Technology Regulatory Authority and the accredited registrars authorized by the Communication and Information Technology Regulatory Authority and responsible for providing integrated registration services for those wishing to register (.Kw).

  • Glaciers in Svalbard: Mass Balance, Runoff and Freshwater Flux
    Glaciers in Svalbard: mass balance, runoff and freshwater fl ux Jon Ove Hagen, Jack Kohler, Kjetil Melvold & Jan-Gunnar Winther Gain or loss of the freshwater stored in Svalbard glaciers has both global implications for sea level and, on a more local scale, impacts upon the hydrology of rivers and the freshwater fl ux to fjords. This paper gives an overview of the potential runoff from the Svalbard glaciers. The fresh- water fl ux from basins of different scales is quantifi ed. In small basins (A < 10 km2), the extra runoff due to the negative mass balance of the gla- ciers is related to the proportion of glacier cover and can at present yield more than 20 % higher runoff than if the glaciers were in equilibrium with the present climate. This does not apply generally to the ice masses of Svalbard, which are mostly much closer to being in balance. The total surface runoff from Svalbard glaciers due to melting of snow and ice is roughly 25 ± 5 km3 a-1, which corresponds to a specifi c runoff of 680 ± 140 mm a-1, only slightly more than the annual snow accumulation. Calving of icebergs from Svalbard glaciers currently contributes signifi cantly to the freshwater fl ux and is estimated to be 4 ± 1 km3 a-1 or about 110 mm a-1. J. O. Hagen & K.

  • Svalbard and Jan Mayen (Norway)
    Provided by NaTHNaC https://travelhealthpro.org.uk Printed:25 Sep 2021 Svalbard And Jan Mayen (Norway) Capital City : "Longyearbyen" Official Language: "Norwegian, Russian" Monetary Unit: "Norwegian krone (NOK)" General Information See also: Norway The information on these pages should be used to research health risks and to inform the pre-travel consultation. Due to COVID-19, travel advice is subject to rapid change. Countries may change entry requirements and close their borders at very short notice. Travellers must ensure they check current Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) travel advice in addition to the FCDO specific country page (where available) which provides additional information on travel restrictions and entry requirements in addition to safety and security advice. Travellers should ideally arrange an appointment with their health professional at least four to six weeks before travel. However, even if time is short, an appointment is still worthwhile. This appointment provides an opportunity to assess health risks taking into account a number of factors including destination, medical history, and planned activities. For those with pre-existing health problems, an earlier appointment is recommended. All travellers should ensure they have adequate travel health insurance. If visiting European Union (EU) countries carry an European Health Insurance Card (EHIC)ora Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC) as this will allow access to state-provided healthcare in some countries, at a reduced cost, or sometimes for free. The EHIC or GHIC, however, is not an alternative to travel insurance. Check the GOV.UK website for guidance. A list of useful resources including advice on how to reduce the risk of certain health problems is available below.

  • Scientific Activities on Spitsbergen in the Light of the International Legal Status of the Archipelago
    POLISH POLAR RESEARCH 16 1-2 13-35 1995 Jacek MACHOWSKI Institute of International Law Warsaw University Krakowskie Przedmieście 1 00-068 Warszawa, POLAND Scientific activities on Spitsbergen in the light of the international legal status of the archipelago ABSTRACT: In this article, Svalbard was presented as place and object of intensive scientific research, carried on under the rule of the 1920 Spitsbergen Treaty, which has transformed the archipelago into a unique political and legal entity, having no counterpart anywhere else in the world. Scientific activities in Svalbard are carried out within an uncommon legal framework, shaped by a body of instruments both of international law and domestic laws of Norway, as well as other countries concerned, while the Spitsbergen Treaty, in despite of its advanced age of 75 years, still remains a workable international instrument, fundamental to the maintenance of law and order within the whole Arctic region. In 1995 two important for Svalbard anniversaries were noted: on 9 February, 75 years of the signing of the Spitsbegren Treaty and on 14 August, 70 years of the Norwegian rule over the archipelago. Key words: Arctic, Spitsbergen, scientific cooperation, law and politics. Introduction The recent missile incident in the Arctic1 and the Russian-Norwegian controversy accompanying it, have turned for a while the attention of world public opinion to the status of Spitsbergen (Svalbard)2 and the conditions of scientific investigations in the archipelago. 1 The Times, 26 January, 1995, p. 12. On 25 January 1995 the world public opinion was alarmed by the news that a Norwegian missile has violated the airspace of Russia, putting its defence on alert.
