These and many more answers for many more questions about black history are now available on Yenoba. We all look around us searching for role models and extraordinary characters that live or have lived their lives in an inspiring way. Now we have the chance to meet them through their facts presented at Yenoba.

One of Yenobas targets is to put their efforts in a lucrative information campaign. Scholarships for black youth are a must and individuals are not always aware that the scholarships are available. The administrators want to promote available information about as many scholarships as possible so that black youth can fulfill their dreams.

You can choose among many categories available on the website, starting with games for Kids or black history resources. All information provided is purposed to create a better idea of African American history and efforts to make this world a better world.

Also one of the features online is the Black History quizzes where you can choose among seven history related quizzes, an opportunity to gain more knowledge in a very pleasant way.

One of the most visited sections is Obama Chronology. Here you can find more information about the 44th President of the United States.

Triforium, in architecture, space in a church above the nave arcade, below the clerestory, and extending over the vaults, or ceilings, of the side aisles. The term is sometimes applied to any second-floor gallery opening onto a higher nave by means of arcades or colonnades, like the galleries in many ancient Roman basilicas or Byzantine churches. The triforium became an integral part of church design during the Romanesque period, serving as a series of openings to light and ventilate the roof space as well as an open passageway.Often it was covered with a quarter-circle vault to partially transmit the thrust of the nave vaults to the outer walls (Saint-Sermn, Toulouse, begun 1096).

With the development of the Gothic vaulting system in France, the triforium diminished in size and importance. Reims (begun 1220) and Amiens (1220— 47) both have trifona of little relative height but with rich arcading.
The more horizontal English Gothic shows an important development of the triforium as a decorative element (Angel Choir, Lincoln cathedral, completed 1282), but the gallery is relatively much higher than in France, often almost equalling the pier arcades. By the end of the 13th century the triforium was usually replaced by greatly heightened clerestory windows. Andrew Collier

It’s often a difficult scenario on the part of an I.T aspirant to get into a thorough analysis of the particular subject matter but since the advent of internet as a valuable source of information, there have been the emergence of tutorials that are available online related to Ajax. The first and foremost tutorial defines Ajax that stands for Asynchronous JavaScript and XML. It is the use of the nonstandard XMLHttpRequest object to communicate with server-side scripts. It can send as well as receive information in a variety of formats, including XML, HTML, and even text files. The tutorial provides with Ajax’s most appealing characteristic, of having an “asynchronous” nature, which means it can do all of this without having to refresh the page.

The Ajax tutorial gives an introduction to ECMAScript for XML (E4X), a simple extension to JavaScript that makes XML scripting very simple. The tutorial has related information on how to make asynchronous requests with JavaScript and Ajax, informative material on Ajax - Try/Catch Blocks of Code, sending requests with XMLHttpRequest to allow user to make requests and receive responses, adding AJAX to a website, Form validation with AJAX/PHP/MySQL, Callbacks and Ajax where user sets the onreadystatechange property of the XMLHttpRequest object to the name of the function to run. Then, when the server has processed the request, it will automatically call that function, to build Ajax-enabled applications using Dojo and JSON, the two very different but complementary technologies that can significantly enhance the interface and usability of web applications and more reference tutorials.

There are mini-tutorials on the black art of iframes and browser history, known to AJAX experts but rarely presented clearly, mini-tutorial on saving state across page loads on the client side, without using cookies so as to save large amounts of data beyond cookies size limits, valuable and effective resource on Easy Ajax with jQuery, Top Ajax Poller Scripts, fast introduction to the basics of Ajax for people that already know how to write the server-side part of the process using servlets and JSP, AJAX username availability checking that allows a user who is registering for your site to see if the username they want to use is taken already or not, without having to submit a form and reload the page, RadAjaxPanel that exposes a rich set of client-side events which allow for easy and flexible use in a wide range of application scenarios and tutorial that explains on how to work with the XML Response or "The X-Files" and more in line in order to enhance and learn new aspects in Ajax. Online education therefore is the most reliable and active source for gaining knowledge for I.T. aspirants through, Asp, Java and Ajax tutorial and the internet is a vast knowledge based environment making things a little more easy with downloadable and accessible information relevant to AJAX.

Across the country, school bells will begin ringing to welcome back students from their “summer recess”. Those in football, band, cheerleading, or another school pre-season activity may feel as though school already started as they prepare for their new season! Yes, even as an aging 45 year old, the smell of wet, cut fescue on a morning drive to work will quickly invoke memories of those 2-a-day and yes, 3-a-day practices of long ago. Fortunately the transition for me was more bearable than those teammates who failed to prepare during the summer for “the day”!

For elementary children, the demands of pre-season may appear less but with careful attention, can be utilized to equip a child to begin on the right foot. Now don’t get me wrong… Summer is a wonderful time for family activity, rest, and enjoying God’s creation. It can serve as a well needed diversion from the routines of life for both a child and parent. Even so, with the call of school ringing aloud, preparation becomes the friend of choice at present.

Outside of the obvious focus on school supplies, clothes, and maybe the backpack, parents also need to consider something that may have been lost over the summer; math skills. Yes, those basic math facts learned the previous school year have a funny way of just coasting down a nerve to the cochlea and bounced out of the ear off the tympanic membrane… or ear drum for the rest of us. It’s a fact!! These math skills just drift away and eventually congregate in the land of “IDK”. Just ask any child (or adult for that matter) something past learned and see if they don’t mention the land of “I don’t know”.
Fortunately, with the explosion of the internet, parents will find numerous choices to equip their child and bring back the math facts lost to the land of IDK. This is important because it’s been shown that students lose approximately 2.6 months of grade level equivalency in mathematical computation skills over the summer months. Whether true for your child or not, being prepared doesn’t hurt anyone.

So as you begin the new school year, let me be the first to wish you much success in math! I know… math can be challenging… if not down right difficult. Ugh! The key, as with any activity whether academics, athletics, or the arts is repetition. Just keep practicing every school day and before you realize it, the concept will take root, understanding will blossom, and the joy of discovering something new will abound.

Speaking of joy of discovery, I’ll leave you with a phrase I love from the 19th century educationalist Charlotte Mason. Commenting about math she said, “That 2 + 2 = 4 and cannot equal anything else is nothing more than a law. It is a beautiful thing to be brought into the presence of a law, a whole set of laws, that exists without man’s concurrence.”

Who knew that even from math one can learn something more than just… math! Todd Smitherman
