--Nicholas Allen, Program Manager, Web Services, Microsoft

Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) is the easiest way to produce and
consume Web services on the Microsoft platform. With .NET 3.5, WCF has
been extensively revamped--and Visual Studio 2008 gives developers
powerful new tools for utilizing it. Essential Windows Communication
Foundation shows developers exactly how to make the most of WCF with
.NET 3.5 and Visual Studio 2008.

Drawing on extensive experience working with early adopters, three
Microsoft insiders systematically address the topics developers ask
about WCF. The authors approach each subject with practical advice and
present best practices, tips, and tricks for solving problems.
Throughout, you?ll find detailed explanations, solutions for the ?pain
points? of WCF development, and an extensive collection of reusable code
examples. Coverage includes
- Using WCF contracts to define complex structures and interfaces
- Understanding WCF?s channel stacks and channel model architecture
- Configuring the WCF communication stack to use only the protocols
you need
- Using standard and custom service behaviors to manage concurrency,
instances, transactions, and more
- Serializing data from .NET types to XML Infosets and representing
Infosets ?on the wire?
- Hosting WCF services via IIS, managed .NET applications, and Windows
Activation Services
- WCF security, in depth: authentication; transport and message-level
security; and Internet and intranet scenarios
- Improving reliability: exception handling, diagnostics, and more
- Workflow services: new integration points between WCF 3.5 and
Windows Workflow Foundation
- Building client-to-client, peer network-based applications
- Utilizing WCF for non-SOAP Web services: AJAX and JSON examples and
.NET 3.5 hosting classes
Microsoft?s Steve Resnick, Richard Crane, and Chris Bowen are technology
experts at the Microsoft Technology Center in Boston. They specialize in
helping customers improve their technical agility by applying WCF and
related technologies. Resnick has specialized in Internet technologies
and distributed computing at Microsoft since 1995. He is a frequent
speaker at Microsoft events and is now technology director for the U.S.
Microsoft Technology Centers. Crane has more than 15 years of experience
in senior software development roles. He specializes in large-scale Web
sites, distributed computing, transactional systems, and performance
analysis. Bowen has been an architect and developer for more than 15
years at companies such as Monster.com and Staples and is co-author of
Professional Visual Studio 2005 Team System.

The Bible The Quran And Science : Ebooks

In his objective study of the texts, Maurice Bucaille clears away many preconceived ideas
about the Old Testament, the Gospels and the Qur'an. He tries, in this collection of
Writings, to separate what belongs to Revelation from what is the product of error or human
interpretation. His study sheds new light on the Holy Scriptures. At the end of a gripping
account, he places the Believer before a point of cardinal importance: the continuity of a
Revelation emanating from the same God, with modes of expression that differ in the
course of time. It leads us to meditate upon those factors which, in our day, should
spiritually unite rather than divide-Jews, Christians and Muslims.



As a surgeon, Maurice Bucaille has often been in a situation where he was able to
examine not only people's bodies, but their souls. This is how he was struck by the existence
of Muslim piety and by aspects of Islam which remain unknown to the vast majority of non-
Muslims. In his search for explanations which are otherwise difficult to obtain, he learnt
Arabic and studied the Qur'an. In it, he was surprised to find statements on natural
phenomena whose meaning can only be understood through modern scientific knowledge.
He then turned to the question of the authenticity of the writings that constitute the Holy
Scriptures of the monotheistic religions. Finally, in the case of the Bible, he proceeded to a
confrontation between these writings and scientific data. The results of his research into the
Judeo-Christian Revelation and the Qur'an are set out in this book.


Short Introduction:

Each of the three monotheistic religions possess its own collection of Scriptures. For the
faithful-be they Jews, Christians or Muslims-these documents constitute the foundation
of their belief. For them they are the material transcription of a divine Revelation; directly, as
in the case of Abraham and Moses, who received the commandments from God Himself, or
indirectly, as in the case of Jesus and Muhammad, the first of whom stated that he was
speaking in the name of the Father, and the second of whom transmitted to men the
Revelation imparted to him by Archangel Gabriel.

If we take into consideration the objective facts of religious history, we must place the
Old Testament, the Gospels and the Qur'an on the same level as being collections of written
Revelation. Although this attitude is in principle held by Muslims, the faithful in the West
under the predominantly Judeo-Christian influence refuse to ascribe to the Qur'an the
character of a book of Revelation.

Apress Pro Web 2.0 Application Development

The main focus of Pro Web 2.0 Application Development with GWT is a case
study of a real Web 2.0 application called ToCollege.net.
What you?ll learn:
- You?ll take a full tour of a modern Web 2.0 startup?s codebase.
That?s 15,000 lines of source code that includes everything from Google
Gears integration to Acegi OpenID, Lucene full?text search, and Google
Maps, all of it integrated with GWT 1.5.
- Leveraging this book?s available source code, you?ll see the
nitty?gritty details of how to merge a modern Web 2.0 application stack
including Hibernate, Spring, Spring MVC 2.5, SiteMesh, and Freemarker
together.



- You?ll see how to wire GWT into an industry standard Maven build
environment, which will help you get up to speed quickly and avoid
configuration headaches.
- The great pitfall of many Ajax applications is they?re mostly opaque
to search engines. You?ll see the ToCollege.net solution to this thorny
problem.
- Protection from XSS and XSRF attacks is beyond the scope of simple
GWT tutorials, but they are a real concern for a site like
ToCollege.net. The book will cover the ToCollege.net security
architecture in detail.
Who is this book for?
This book is for developers who are ready to move beyond small
proof?of?concept sample applications and want to look at the issues
surrounding a real deployment of GWT. If you want to see what the guts
of a full?fledged GWT application look like, this is the book for you.
GWT 1.5 is a game?changing technology, but it doesn?t exist in a bubble.
Real deployments need to connect to your database, enforce
authentication, provide protection from security threats, and allow good
search engine optimization. To show you all this, this book looks at the
code behind a real live web site called ToCollege.net. This application
specializes in helping students who are applying to colleges, allowing
them to manage their application process and compare the rankings that
they give to each school. It?s a slick application that?s ready for you
to sign up and use. The audience for this book either owns another GWT
book for the basic tutorials or is comfortable using the online
documentation and forums when they?re stuck, which allows this book to
move quickly and focus on answering the bigger architecture questions.

Indeed, the driving force behind this work is much greater and more important than that.

Women In Islam And Refutation Of Some Common Misconceptions

Various calls for women?s freedom, liberation and equal rights have been heard all over the world, and many slogans have been coined for the marches. In some societies women have indeed lived under oppression, cruelty and injustice, and have been denied basic rights of humanity. Nor is it denied that some Muslims have deviated from the Islamic principles and teachings. Islamic law, on the other hand, has quarantined women?s rights in a comprehensive and balanced system of human rights and obligations. Close examination of the slogans propagated by the international women?s liberation movements show that they revolve around the three elements: women?s liberation; equal rights with men; women?s rights. We will examine them in the light of Islamic law and teachings, regardless of the practices of some of the ignorant and deviant Muslims.



This book deals with the following questions and issues:

- State of women through the ages: Women in the Pre- Islamic Arab Society; Indian Society; Chinese Society; Greek Society; Roman Society; Traditional Jewish Society; Traditional Christian Society; Modern Secular Society

- Matters in which Men and Women are Equal in Islam: In basic humanity; In Application of Obligations; In rewards and punishments in this worldly life and the hereafter; In ownership and the freedom of financial transaction; In preserving the honor and nobility; In mandatory education; In bearing responsibility towards reforming the society.

- Women?s status and rights in various stages of life in the Muslim society: as a baby, child and young girl; as a sister; as a wife; as a mother; as kinsfolk and neighbor, and as a woman in general.

- Misconceptions about Women?s rights and obligations in Islam and their refutation: On polygamy; On leadership and responsibility; On the Marriage Contract and Guardianship; On wife beating; On honor killing; On divorce; On testimony; On inheritance; On blood money; On employment; On Hijab (covering head and face)

Beginning Ubuntu Linux 2nd Edition : Ebooks

Beginning Ubuntu Linux, Second Edition purely and simply focuses on what you need to know to use Linux. It?s concise and to the point, aiming to re-create under Linux all the stuff you used to do under Windows, or even Apple Macintosh. But don?t think that this means Beginning Ubuntu Linux, Second Edition cuts corners. Wherever justified, this book spends time examining the topics you need to know in order to gain a complete and comprehensive understanding. For example, you?ll find a hefty chapter looking at the command-line prompt?arguably the heart of Linux and the element that gives Linux most of its power. There?s also an entire chapter discussing (and illustrating) how to initially install Ubuntu on your computer.



This book is split into seven parts, each of which contains chapters about a certain aspect of Ubuntu use. These parts can be read in sequence, or you can dip in and out of them at will. Whenever a technical term is mentioned, a reference is made to the chapter where that term is explained.

This second edition has been thoroughly updated and revised to take into account improvements introduced with the 6.10 release of Ubuntu (code-named Edgy Eft). The previous edition covered the 5.10 release, and the changes introduced with the 6.10 release, though often subtle, make a dramatic difference in the Ubuntu experience.

Essentials of Programming Languages, 3rd Edition : Ebooks

This book provides students with a deep, working understanding of the essential concepts of programming languages. Most of these essentials relate to the semantics, or meaning, of program elements, and the text uses interpreters (short programs that directly analyze an abstract representation of the program text) to express the semantics of many essential language elements in a way that is both clear and executable.



The approach is both analytical and hands-on. The book provides views of programming languages using widely varying levels of abstraction, maintaining a clear connection between the high-level and low-level views. Exercises are a vital part of the text and are scattered throughout; the text explains the key concepts, and the exercises explore alternative designs and other issues. The complete Scheme code for all the interpreters and analyzers in the book can be found online through The MIT Press Web site.

Digital Watermarking and Steganography, 2nd Edition : Ebooks

Digital audio, video, images, and documents are flying through cyberspace to their respective owners. Unfortunately, along the way, individuals may choose to intervene and take this content for themselves.



Digital watermarking and steganography technology greatly reduces the instances of this by limiting or eliminating the ability of third parties to decipher the content that he has taken. The many techiniques of digital watermarking (embedding a code) and steganography (hiding information) continue to evolve as applications that necessitate them do the same. The authors of this second edition provide an update on the framework for applying these techniques that they provided researchers and professionals in the first well-received edition. Steganography and steganalysis (the art of detecting hidden information) have been added to a robust treatment of digital watermarking, as many in each field research and deal with the other. New material includes watermarking with side information, QIM, and dirty-paper codes. The revision and inclusion of new material by these influential authors has created a must-own book for anyone in this profession.

3D Object Processing: Compression, Indexing and Watermarking : Ebook

The arrival, and continuing evolution, of high quality 3D objects has been made possible by recent progress in 3D scanner acquisition and 3D graphics rendering. With this increasing quality comes a corresponding increase in the size and complexity of the data files and the necessity for advances in compression techniques. Effective indexing to facilitate the retrieval of the 3D data is then required to efficiently store, search and recapture the objects that have been compressed. The application of 3D images in fields such as communications, medicine and the military also calls for copyright protection, or watermarking, to secure the data for transmission.
Written by expert contributors, this timely text brings together the three important and complementary topics of compression, retrieval and watermarking techniques for 3D objects. 3D object processing applications are developing rapidly and this book tackles the challenges and opportunities presented, focusing on the secure transmission, sharing and searching of 3D objects on networks, and includes:
an introduction to the commonly used 3D representation schemes; the characteristics, advantages and limitations of polygonal meshes, surface based models and volumetric models;



3D compression techniques; the 3D coding and decoding schemes for reducing the size of 3D data to reduce transmission time and minimize distortion;
state of the art responses to the intrinsic challenges of building a 3D-model search engine, considering view-based, structural and full-3D approaches;
watermarking techniques for ensuring intellectual property protection and content security without altering the visual quality of the 3D object.
3D Object Processing: Compression, Indexing and Watermarking is an invaluable resource for graduate students and researchers working in signal and image processing, computer aided design, animation and imaging systems. Practising engineers who want to expand their knowledge of 3D video objects, including data compression, indexing, security, and copyrighting of information, will also find this book of great use.

Ebooks : Important Warning Against Ribaa ( Usury & Interest )



All praise is due to Allah, Whom we thank and seek for help and forgiveness. We seek refuge with Allah from the evils of ourselves and from the wrongdoing of our actions. Whomever Allah guides, there is none who can mislead him, and whomever He leaves astray, there is none who can guide him. I testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger.

"O you who believe! Fear Allah as He deserves to be feared, and die not except as Muslims." (3:102)

"O mankind! Fear your Lord, Who created you from a single person (Adam), and from him (Adam) He created his wife (Eve), and from them both He created many men and women, and fear Allah through Whom you demand your mutual (rights), and (do not cut the relations) of the wombs (kinship) ! Surely, Allah is Ever an All-Watcher over you." (4:1)

"O you who believe! Fear Allah, and say a correct word that is correct (i.e. the truth). He will direct you to do righteous deeds and forgive you your sins. And whoever obeys Allah and His Messenger, he has indeed achieved a great achievement." (33:70-71)

To proceed: Verily, the best speech is the Book of Allah, and the best guidance is the guidance of Muhammad. The worst matters are newly invented matters (in the religion), and every newly invented matter is an innovation (Bid'ah), every innovation is a misguidance, and every misguidance is in the Hell-fire.

Why Do You Smoke : Ebooks



Smoking is a dangerous epidemic and a destructive adversity that catches many people in its trap. Many of them have live hearts and strong Islamic emotions, yet they are afflicted with smoking and do not deny its harm, its effects and its prohibition. They hope to give it up, and strive to get rid of it. Such people have a right upon their brothers to help them and take their hands to the shore of safety.

If you ask any smoker why he smokes, you would receive many different answers. Some people smoke when they need relief from depression; others smoke to ease the stress of estrangement from their families. Some people smoke with friends to have fun, while others smoke to rid themselves of worry and anger. There are those that smoke to imitate those whom they admire, or perhaps they smoke because they have been doing it from a young age and cannot stop. You will even find those who say, ?I smoke because it is useful, and I do not believe it is prohibited.?

These are generally the excuses smokers give, and based on this, allow me, my dear beloved smoking brothers, to discuss this issue with you for a short while, and perhaps we will come to a satisfying conclusion.

Beloved brother! Are you not convinced that smoking is prohibited and that it has a very bad impact? Don?t you ever think seriously to permanently give it up? You would possibly say, ?Yes, but I want to become more convinced that it is harmful so that I can give it up.? I would say to you, please lend me your ear and listen with your heart to what I am about to say.
