Assumptions
Normalization
First Normal Form (1NF)
Atomic issues
To comply with atomic level 1NF rule, tables ( customer, book, tour,book_location and workshop)
were expanded. For table(customer),field (name) was split into 2 fields( firstname, surname),
field ( name_creditcard) into 2 fields (firstname _creditcard , surname_creditcard) and field
( Address) into 5 fields( Street, City, Region, Country, Postcode). (See Table 1 in Appendix). The
field (Author) in table (book) was also split into 2 fields(first name, surname) (See Table 3 in
Appendix).For tour table, field (address) needs to be put into 4 fields (Street, City, Region,
Country)(See Table 4 in Appendix).In table(book_location) many advantages can be gained by
atomizing the field (Address) into 5 field ( Address, City, Region, Postcode, Country,). Customers
can search using a number of inputs, such as searching by city, region, Country or postcode, and
the system could do more services using this. (See table 5 in Appendix ).Lastly, field ( time) in
table(workshop) can be divided into fields (starting time, finishing time, time). The text field
(time) will allow the teacher to decided on a number of variables such as, number of lessons per
week or month and the time of the workshop. (See table 6 in Appendix)
Table (event) has redundant Booleanfields (Tour Event, Lecture Event, and Workshop Event). If we
add a new product or service, NULL values will be created for all the old records. To solve this
design issue, new purchasing tables ( booking_book, booking_tour, booking_lecture,
booking_magazine, booking_family) must be included. ( See table 6 in Appendix). With this
solution, we can delete tables (product, event) from the database. (See table 6 and 7in Appendix)
A new primary key had to be added to the table (speaker) because although it is unlikely that two
famous speakers will have the same name, it is still a possibility. ( See table 8 in Appendix)
table 9 in Appendix)
No Action required
No actions were required to achieve 1NF for tables( tour_guide, room , book ,magazine)(see
table 10 in Appendix )
The customer table can be divided into 3 tables( Customer, Credit Card , Password ). New fields
( Credit Card ID , Password_id) were created for protection in the Credit Card table. By using a
Credit ID instead of the Credit Card Number as a primary key, we can set the credit card and
password access level much higher. For example, a number of managers may need access to the
customer information for various reasons, but no one but the database administrator will be able
to see the credit card information or customers’ passwords.In addition, I also added 5 fields
( Street, City, Region, Country, Postcode) for the address information. This was impossible to do in
one table as it would have created multiple identical fields, and so would have failed 1NF. (See
table 11 in Appendix)
Review and rating tables( lecture, tour , workshop , books, magazine) need to be created for the
review and rating information, as more than one review or rating can be assigned to one lecture.
The new tables(lecture review, tour review, tour rating, workshop review, book review, book
rating, magazine review , magazine rating ) can search the booking table by using the foreign keys
( customer_id, ) to check whether the customer has paid for the lecture. By doing this option,
more detailed information can be easily added onto the table. The new review fields ( Date,
Helpful , Unhelpful) also can better organize the reviews for customer. (See tables 12 – 16 in
Appendix )
No Action required
All the 2NF requirements were fulfilled for numerous tables(See table 17 in Appendix )
The book store location is divided into 2 tables by converting field (Postcode) into a foreign key,
and creating a new address table for the book store location table.(See table 18 in Appendix )

Lecture Review
2 5 enjoyed your talk. how do chemicals and one celled creatures become multicellular? we are 3 0
studying complexity. apparently humans and their brains are at the next level of complexity.
we have created enormous bombs which are the only things we currently know of capable of
changing the orbit of an asteroid within a "short" time. or lacking enough time, fragment the
asteroid into pieces small enough to burn up in our atmosphere, or at least smaller than a life
extinction event. by the way, currently petrolium products are the only way to get out of
earth's gravity well. there are others once we get out there. but with a few small exceptions
(maybe alcohol can be modified or improved in some way. Lord knows we can produce large
quantities of that!) additionally, we are now discussing dismantling our weapons in fear that
we will destroy ourselves. but sometime in the next 60 000 years or so, we will be faced with
another Life Extinction Event. Hopefully by that time we will have graduated to the next level
of complexity and become the Earth's antibody system which can change the course or
fragment that asteroid which we know is on the way. will we have the tools we need?
Evolution is very funny. Actual smart people know it is the biggest lie and fantasy ever forced 0 4
as fact. The internet and digital communications was created by intellectual design, not
chance. The complex things he of speaks have no chance in such an expanding and rough
environment. The complex elements and molecules he speaks of, when researched NOT
assumed as to just happening, could not possibly have...evolved. The elements, Atoms and
such, are, VERY complex, yet, somehow they just...appeared. Atoms have always been as they
are now: the laws of physics says so. They were never weaker or soupy like. There is no
evidence for it. Then, matter, from nowhere, the Big Bang just happened. All the elements,
complex matter, just came to be. Okay. Through evidence, we know a simple book must have
been created by smart design--yes, some one had to create it. Yet, Atoms and cells, DNA/RNA,
a very, very astronomically diverse and vast in scope system, which all of it exists in precise
order and governed by exact laws, information larger than many New York City Libraries
combined, all in order by cover and alphabetically, chapter, page, paragraph, word, letter, by
chance came to be. Everyone knows God created the universe. When astronauts look for
extraterrestrial life, what are they looking for to make them believe there is such life out
there? Their words are they need intelligent signs of information, otherwise there is no
attempt in reaching out. Yet, again, life and the universe have stored in it so much complex
and very informative information, but of course, THAT was chance. Evolution is no science but
it counters science.

Among the best known ancient baths in the world, the Romans Baths were initially built as part of the
town of Aqua Sulis, which was founded in 44 AD. Vast and lavish, the baths were able to
accommodate far more people than just the residents of this town and were intended as a place for
people to visit from across the Empire. As with other bath complexes of the time, the Roman Baths at
Bath were a focal point for the town, a place to socialise and even a religious site.
Today, the Roman Baths offer an incredibly comprehensive insight into the lives of the ancient Romans
in the town and around Britain. The site looks quite small from the outside, but it is actually vast and a
visit can last several hours.
One of the first things one sees upon entering the site is a view from the terrace above the Great Bath.
Overlooked by nineteenth century statues of various Roman icons, this is the centrepiece of the site
and a first glimpse into what lies ahead. Later on in the tour, visitors arrive at the Great Bath, where it
is possible to stand right alongside the water. There are even costumed characters on site to create an
authentic mood and entertain young children.
The sacred spring is next along the tour. Visible through a floor to ceiling window, visitors can view the
original spring of hot water, which was dedicated to Minerva due to its believed healing powers. The
spring was also a place of worship and the place where people threw coins, curses, wishes and
prayers. Many of these messages can be seen at the Roman Baths and range from the humorous to
the sinister.
The Temple and the Temple Courtyard were sacred places at the Baths from the late first century until
391 AD, when the Temple was closed by Emperor Theodosius as Christianity rose to become the
Empire’s state religion. Walking through the Temple Courtyard, videos are shown to demonstrate what
this once magnificent site would have looked like and how it was used. It is also here that one can see
the gilded bronze statue of the head of Minerva.
Amongst the other sites at the Roman Baths, there is a comprehensive museum dedicated to exploring
the lives of the ancient Roman citizens of Bath and an ancient drain used as an overflow system.
Around the Great Bath itself, visitors can explore the numerous saunas, swimming pools, heated baths
and changing facilities at the site.
Beau 2 1200A Beaumaris Castle is an incomplete but nonetheless striking medieval castle on the Isle of Anglesey 2 1 2 www.history.com
maris D - built by King Edward I. /tour/picture/Be
Castl 1299A aumarisCastle.jp
e D Begun in 1295, this was the last of the king’s ring of castles which he commissioned so as to affirm his eg
conquest of Wales. Designed to be the largest of this imposing circle, Beaumaris Castle was never
completed.
Despite its unfinished state, Beaumaris Castle did play a military role, being besieged and captured by
Prince of Wales Owain Glyn Dwron in 1403 before being retaken by the English in 1405. Charles I also
used it as a base for moving supplies and troops during the English Civil War.
Today, the picturesque ruins of Beaumaris Castle offer a glimpse into its real and potential grandeur.
Together with three of Edward’s other Welsh strongholds, Beaumaris Castle is a UNESCO World
Heritage site.
Wind 3 1000A Windsor Castle is the oldest occupied castle in the world. Covering an area of approximately 13 acres, 3 1 2 www.history.com
sor D - it contains a wide range of interesting features. These include the State Apartments, Queen Mary’s /tour/picture/
Castl 1099A dolls house and the beautiful St George’s Chapel. It is also the burial place of ten monarchs, including WindsorCastle.jp
e D Henry VIII and his beloved wife (the one who gave him a son), Jane Seymour. eg
The building of Windsor Castle began in the 1070s at the behest of William the Conqueror, with the
intent that it was to guard the western approach to London. Since that time, the structure of Windsor
Castle has been embellished by many of the monarchs of England and the UK. Notably, in the 1170s,
Henry II (the first Plantagenet) rebuilt most of the castle in stone instead of wood, including the round
tower and the upper ward, where most monarchs have had their private apartments since the 14th
century.
In the mid-fourteenth century, Edward III, who had recently founded the Order of the Garter, built St
George’s Hall at Windsor Castle for the use of the knights of this Order. A further addition, St George’s
Chapel, was started by Edward IV, but was not finished until the time of Henry VIII. It is here that the
ten British monarchs lie buried.
During the English Civil War, Windsor Castle served as a prison and it was to St George’s Chapel that
the body of Charles I was brought for burial after his execution. Charles II and George IV (formerly the
Prince Regent) made further contributions to the architecture of Windsor Castle in the 1650s and
1820s respectively.
Queen Victoria and Prince Albert loved Windsor castle, and Prince Albert died there of typhoid in
1861. Queen Victoria built a mausoleum in the grounds of the castle, Frogmore, where Albert and
later Victoria herself were buried.
In the Second World War, Windsor Castle became home to our present Queen, Elizabeth II, and her
family, George VI, the (future) Queen Mother and Princess Margaret. It remains a favourite home of
Queen Elizabeth, and she spends most of her weekends there. There was a huge fire at the castle in
November 1992 which took 15 hours and one and half a million gallons of water to extinguish. It
began in the Private Chapel and soon spread to affect approximately one fifth of the area of the castle.
It took five years to restore the Castle, and it was finished by the end of 1997.
There are numerous exhibitions and tours at Windsor Castle. In fact, a typical visit can take up to three
hours. This site features as one of our Top Ten UK Tourist Attractions.

A Flawed Plan
With the Allied and German forces in France deadlocked in trenches, British commanders planned to
break the stalemate by destroying the German trenches and then having the British soldiers slowly
walk across no-man’s land to capture them. This plan proved disastrous. Firstly, both the British troops
and the French forces were already massively weakened by previous battles. This meant fewer French
soldiers along the front line and that the remaining British soldiers were inexperienced volunteers,
brought in to repopulate the depleted army.
Secondly, the plan was inextricably flawed. Not only did the extensive preparation by the British and
the ongoing bombardment alert German forces to the upcoming attack, but the bombing raids and
shelling barely dented the German fortifications. Therefore, when the soldiers started making their
way across France’s muddy plains to the enemy lines, the Germans were prepared. Those who
managed to make their way to the German trenches were then forced to try and return, unable to
scale the barbed wire.
Fort 4 1885 Fort Douaumont (Fort de Douamont) was originally constructed in around 1885 following the Franco- 5 1 3 www.history.com
Doua AD - Prussian wars, with ongoing works carried out until just before the First World War. /tour/picture/For
umo 1930A tDouaumont.jpeg
nt D As a fully fortified structure with sophisticated weaponry and a sunken position on high ground, Fort
Douaumont was considered to be a vital defensive post. However, when the Battle of Verdun
commenced in February 1916, the village of Douaumont was in chaos. People went to shelter in Fort
Douaumont but, in the confusion, nobody was firing the fort’s guns. German soldiers managed to
infiltrate Fort Douaumont and its destruction ensued.
Today, visitors can see Fort Douaumont as it was at the end of World War One. You can take a tour
through its three levels and see the guns, turrets and weaponry which remain. Despite the
destruction, much of Fort Douaumont is well preserved including the barrack rooms and command
posts. There is also a graveyard.
