Varuna is a Vedic deity associated with the sky also with the seas as well as Ṛta and Satya. He is found in the oldest layer of Vedic literature such as hymn 7.86 of the Rigveda. He is mentioned in the Tamil grammar work Tolkāppiyam, as the god of sea and rain, he is said to be the son of Kashyapa. In the Hindu Puranas, Varuna is the god of oceans, his vehicle is a Makara and his weapon is a Pasha, he is the guardian deity of the western direction. In some texts, he is the father of the Vedic sage Vasishtha. Varuna is found in Japanese Buddhist mythology as Suiten, he is found in Jainism. The theonym Varuṇa is a derivation from the verbal vṛ by means of a suffigal -uṇa-, for an interpretation of the name as "he who covers or binds", in reference to the cosmological ocean or river encircling the world, but in reference to the "binding" by universal law or Ṛta. Georges Dumézil made a cautious case for the identity of Varuna and the Greek god Ouranos at the earliest Indo-European cultural level; the etymological identification of the name Ouranos with the Sanskrit Varuṇa is based in the derivation of both names from the PIE root *ŭer with a sense of "binding" – the Indic king-god Varuṇa binds the wicked, the Greek king-god Ouranos binds the Cyclopes.

While the derivation of the name Varuṇa from this root is undisputed, this derivation of the Greek name is now rejected in favour of derivation from the root *wers- "to moisten, drip". In the earliest layer of the Rigveda, Varuna is the guardian of moral law, one who punishes those who sin without remorse, who forgives those who err with remorse, he is mentioned in many Rigvedic hymns, such as 1.25, 2.27 -- 30, 8.8, 9.73 and others. His relationship with waters and oceans is mentioned in the Vedas. Vedic poets describe him as an aspect and one of the plural perspectives of the Agni, one of the Primary deity For example, hymn 5.3 of the Rigveda states: Varuna and Mitra are the gods of the societal affairs including the oath, are twinned Mitra-Varuna. Both Mitra and Varuna are classified as Asuras in the Rigveda, although they are addressed as Devas as well. Varuna, being the king of the Asuras, was adopted or made the change to a Deva after the structuring of the primordial cosmos, imposed by Indra after he defeats Vrtra.

According to Doris Srinivasan, a professor of Indology focusing on religion, Varuna-Mitra pair is an ambiguous deity just like Rudra-Shiva pair. Both have wrathful-gracious aspects in Indian mythology. Both Varuna and Rudra are synonymous with "all comprehensive sight, knowledge", both were the guardian deity of the north in the Vedic texts, both can be offered "injured, ill offerings", all of which suggest that Varuna may have been conceptually overlapping with Rudra. Further, the Rigvedic hymn 5.70 calls Mitra-Varuna pair as states Srinivasan. According to Samuel Macey and other scholars, Varuna had been the more ancient Indo-Aryan deity in 2nd millennium BCE, who gave way to Rudra in the Hindu pantheon, Rudra-Shiva became both "timeless and the god of time". In Vajasaneyi Samhita 21.40, Varuna is called the patron deity of physicians, one who has "a hundred, a thousand remedies". His capacity and association with "all comprehensive knowledge" is found in the Atharvaveda. Varuna finds a mention in the early Upanishads, where his role evolves.

In verse 3.9.26 of the Brihadaranyaka Upanishad, for example, he is stated to be the god of the western quarter, but one, founded on "water" and dependent on "the heart" and the fire of soul. In the Katha Upanishad, Aditi is identified to be same as the goddess earth, she is stated in the Vedic texts to be the mother of Varuna and Mitra along with other Vedic gods, in Hindu mythology she as mother earth is stated to be mother of all gods. In Yajurveda it is said: "In fact Varuna is Vishnu and Vishnu is Varuna and hence the auspicious offering is to be made to these deities." || 8.59 || Rama interacts with Varuna in the Hindu epic Ramayana. For example, faced with the dilemma of how to cross the ocean to Lanka, where his abducted wife Sita is held captive by the demon king Ravana, Rama performs a pravpavesha to Varuna, the Lord of Oceans, for three days and three nights, states Ramesh Menon. Varuna does not respond, Rama arises on the fourth morning, enraged, he states to his brother Lakshamana that "even lords of the elements listen only to violence, Varuna does not respect gentleness, peaceful prayers go unheard".

With his bow and arrow, Rama prepares to attack the oceans to burn up the waters and create a bed of sand for his army of monkeys to cross and thus confront Ravana. Lakshmana appeals to Rama, translates Menon, that he should return to "peaceful paths of our fathers, you can win this war without laying waste the sea". Rama shoots his weapon sending the ocean into flames; as Rama increases the ferocity of his weapons, Varuna arises out of the oceans. He bows to Rama, stating that he himself did not know how to help Rama because the sea is deep, vast and he cannot change the nature of sea. Varuna asked Rama to remember that he is "the soul of peace and love, wrath does not suit him". Varuna promised to Rama that he will not disturb him or his army as they build a bridge and cross over to Lanka; the Tolkāppiyam, a Tamil grammar work from 3rd century BCE divides the people of ancient Tamilakam into 5 Sangam landscape divisions: kurinji, paalai, marutham an

The Schreder Airmate HP-11 is an American mid-wing, V-tailed, single seat glider designed by Richard Schreder. Airmate was the name of Schreder's design company; the HP-11 was designed to compete in the FAI Open Class in the 1962 US Nationals and represented the designer's continued pursuit of the perfect competition sailplane. The HP-11 is an all-metal design, with a wing that features a 26:1 aspect ratio, a 52 ft wingspan and a NACA 65 -618 airfoil, the same airfoil, used on the HP-8 and HP-10. A total of 42 HP-11s were built from kits and plans before production was ended in favour of the Schreder HP-14. Flying the HP-11 in the 1962 US Nationals, Schreder came in third in the competition and had the longest flight, 469 mi. Schreder flew it to third place in the Open Class at the 1963 World Gliding Championships held at Junín, Buenos Aires Province, Argentina. At that event Schreder flew a 382 mi flight. In April 2011 there were 28 HP-11s registered with the US Federal Aviation Administration and three with Transport Canada.

Wei Hsueh-kang known as Prasit Cheewinnitipanya or Charnchai Cheevinnitipanya and Suchat Phanloetkun, is a military commander of the United Wa State Army. He has been accused of illegally trafficking drugs in Wa State, in the US, through Myanmar's border with China. Following the 2015 jade mine disaster in Hpakant, Kachin State, Wei Hsueh-kang was accused of exploiting locals and illegally funding mining operations in the area; this could not be verified or denied by Wei himself, as he was still in hiding. Hsueh-kang was following his father, supported by CIA, selling opium to found Taiwanese insurgency into mainland China until his graduation from high school when he joined Khun Sa's paramilitary. A member of Khun Sa’s Mong Tai Army, Wei Hsueh-kang was one of the original founders of the UWSA in 1989, following the collapse of the armed wing of the Communist Party of Burma in 1988. Wei Hsueh-kang was believed to have remained associated with Khun Sa after he left the MTA during the height of opium production in the Golden Triangle, remains wanted by the Bureau for International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs for drug offences committed within the United States.

He is believed to be in Myanmar within UWSA controlled territory of Wa State. Although Wei Hsueh-kang was granted Thai citizenship in 1985, three years in 1988, he was facing a sentence of life imprisonment by the Thai Government, he jumped bail however, his Thai nationality was revoked in 2001. Wei Hsueh-kang has since downsized his involvement in drug trafficking in response to his wanted status by the US. However, his affiliation with the UWSA reinforced doubts about the extent of his involvement in drug trafficking. In 1998, Wei Hsueh-kang founded the Hong Pang Group with money from the drug trade, money from taking advantage of the privileges offered in the ceasefire deal by General Khin Nyunt, its position in the country's economy, not just the Wa State, is reflected by a multitude of businesses it owns and controls in construction, agriculture and minerals, petroleum and communications, department stores. Hong Pang Group is based at Panghsang with offices in Yangon, Lashio and Mawlamyine.

A fire in Panghsang on 18 April 2009, destroyed the largest petrol station and over 10,000 tons of teak in a warehouse, both belonging to Wei Hsueh-kang.

Extended file attributes are file system features that enable users to associate computer files with metadata not interpreted by the filesystem, whereas regular attributes have a purpose defined by the filesystem. Unlike forks, which can be as large as the maximum file size, extended attributes are limited in size to a value smaller than the maximum file size. Typical uses include storing the author of a document, the character encoding of a plain-text document, or a checksum, cryptographic hash or digital certificate, discretionary access control information. In Unix-like systems, extended attributes are abbreviated as xattr. In AIX, the JFS2 v2 filesystem supports extended attributes, which are accessible using the getea command; the getea, listea and removeea APIs support fetching, listing, getting information about, removing extended attributes. Support for extended file attributes was removed from the OpenBSD source code in 2005 due to a lack of interest in Access Control Lists In FreeBSD 5.0 and the UFS1, UFS2, ZFS filesystems support extended attributes, using the extattr_ family of system calls.

Any regular file may have a list of extended attributes. Each attribute consists of the associated data; the name must be a null-terminated string, exists in a namespace identified by a small-integer namespace identifier. Two namespaces exist: user and system; the user namespace has no restrictions with regard to naming or contents. The system namespace is used by the kernel for access control lists and mandatory access control. In Linux, the ext2, ext3, ext4, JFS, Yaffs2, ReiserFS, Reiser4, XFS, OrangeFS, Lustre, OCFS2 1.6, ZFS, F2FS filesystems support extended attributes when enabled in the kernel configuration. Any regular file or directory may have extended attributes consisting of associated data; the name must be a null-terminated string prefixed by a dot character. Four namespaces exist: user, trusted and system; the user namespace has no restrictions with regard to naming or contents. The system namespace is used by the kernel for access control lists; the security namespace is used for example.

Support for the extended attribute concept from a POSIX.1e draft, withdrawn in 1997 was added to Linux around 2002. As of 2016, they are not yet in widespread use by user-space Linux programs, but are used by Beagle, OpenStack Swift, Dropbox, KDE's semantic metadata framework, Wget and cURL. A set of recommendations for using them is available at freedesktop.org. The Linux kernel allows extended attribute to have names of up to 255 bytes and values of up to 64KiB, as do XFS and ReiserFS, but ext2/3/4 and btrfs impose much smaller limits, requiring all the attributes of one file to fit in one "filesystem block". Extended attributes can be accessed and modified using the attr and setfattr commands from the attr package on most distributions. Mac OS X 10.4 and support extended attributes by making use of the HFS+ filesystem Attributes file B*-tree feature which allows for named forks. Although the named forks in HFS+ support arbitrarily large amounts of data through extents, the OS support for extended attributes only supports inline attributes, limiting their size to that which can fit within a single B*-tree node.

Any regular file may have a list of extended attributes. HFS+ supports an arbitrary number of named forks, it is unknown if macOS imposes any limit on the number of extended attributes; each attribute consists of the associated data. The name is a null-terminated Unicode string; the macOS APIs support listing, getting and removing extended attributes from files or directories. From the command line, these abilities are exposed through the xattr utility. Since macOS 10.5, files originating from the web are marked with com.apple.quarantine via extended file attributes. In some older versions of macOS, user space extended attributes were not preserved on save in common Cocoa applications. In OS/2 version 1.2 and the High Performance File System was designed with extended attributes in mind, but support for them was retro-fitted on the FAT filesystem of DOS. For compatibility with other operating systems using a FAT partition, OS/2 attributes are stored inside a single file "EA DATA. SF" located in the root directory.

This file is inaccessible when an operating system supporting extended attributes manages the disk, but can be manipulated under, for example, DOS. Files and directories having extended attributes use one or more clusters inside this file; the logical cluster number of the first used cluster is stored inside the owning file's or directory's directory entry. These two bytes are used for other purposes on the FAT32 filesystem, hence OS/2 extended attributes cannot be stored on this filesystem. Parts of OS/2 version 2.0 and such as the Workplace Shell uses several standardized extended attributes for purposes like identifying the filetype, computer icons and keywords about the file. Programs written in the interpreted language Rexx store an parsed version of the code as an extended attribute, to allow faster execution. Solaris version 9 and allows files to have "extended attributes", which are forks. Internally, they are stored and accessed like normal files, so their
