Havelock is one of the most important tourism destinations of the Union Territory of Andaman & Nicobar. It is one of the few islands that is inhabited, although most of it is a natural paradise, replete with white sand beaches, coral reefs with a colourful array of aquatic life, palm trees, as well as dense forests in the interiors. Inhabited mainly by Bengali settlers, the island houses a number of small villages. Covering an area of 100 sq. km, it lies on the northeast of Port Blair, 54 km by road and 33.5 km by sea. The pristine island is a great base from which to hike, fish, kayak and sail to other islands. It also offers some brilliant snorkelling and diving opportunities. Radha Nagar beach on Havelock has been voted Best Beach of Asia, by Time Magazine.
The two famous beaches here are Radha Nagar Beach and Elephant Beach also called Hathi Dera. You could see some a live marine action by renting a glass-bottomed boat and sailing the crystal water, and if you are lucky even spot a few dolphins.

Welcome to The Hub for online Jewish classes and events. Find an upcoming event hosted by Jewish organizations across the world, or explore our on-demand section to view recordings of past events.
New York in the Progressive Era
Hosted By: The Lower East Side Jewish Conservancy (LESJC)
The years 1890-1920 produced sweeping reforms and profound changes in American life and especially in New York State. Reacting to the great inequalities from the Gilded Age, reformers pressed for laws for better housing, women's suffrage, personal income tax, labor protections, and what were early environmental and wilderness conservation initiatives, plus much more. This era saw innovative ways of combatting social issues with the development of movements, such as the one that created Settlement Houses, which started in America on the Lower East Side – a neighborhood teaming with poor Jewish immigrants at that time.
Join us for a talk on Zoom by author Paul Kaplan whose book, New York in the Progressive Era: Social Reform and Cultural Upheaval from 1890-1920, will take you on a journey discussing these social movements, and how they affected life as we know it now.
Covered in this presentation will be:
• How the Progressive Era came about in reaction to the Gilded Age
• Calls for Reforms (many by noted Jewish leaders)
• Women's Suffrage
• Early Environmental Conservation
• Worker Rights
• Transportation Expansion
• Jewish leaders and voices of this period Paul will share archival photos, videos, poetry, and quotes from some of the people he will talk about.
Mr. Kaplan has published 6 books from History Press, Pelican, and Quill Driver Books, writing them under 3 series: #1 -Cultural Guides, #2 – Social History & Biographies, and #3 – Business Technology Marketing.
The event listed here is hosted by a third party. My Jewish Learning/70 Faces Media is not responsible for its content or for errors in the listing.
Wed. Dec. 01, 2021
Paul Kaplan
Paul has given over 45 book tours across the US at a variety of venues including at the clubs for Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Union League, Elm City Club of New Haven, Museum at Eldridge Street, General Society Library and at scores of libraries, community centers, museums, and private functions. In addition, he has been featured on the front page of New York Press, the long-running radio show America's Dining & Travel, Writer's Voice, several other talk radio shows, the iconic African-American newspaper Amsterdam New York and Princeton Magazine. His books are on PBS, local NPR stations, and CBS Miami. Also, he has helped produce and been interviewed on Let's Travel, a talk show on public radio.

This is more dieselpunk than what I normally review, but this book was excellent enough to warrant inclusion here. World War 2 flying aces who happen to be vampires defend the sky of Great Britain from the Nazis.
The author is part of the RAF himself, and has always loved the airplanes featured in this book. One can tell that the author knows what he's talking about as he describes the dogfights. Everything that takes place in the sky is brilliant.
On the ground, it is a typical flying ace story, even with the vampiric twist. There's a guy who doesn't like the main character, there's a girl who does, and there's a lot of flying. Fairly simple, with the sorts of twists one might expect, all done quite well. One might wish for better characterization, or one might just take it as it is and get on with enjoying the story. I picked the latter, because it is quite a gripping story.
I give this four point five gears out of five. If World War 2 isn't your cup of tea, then this will not be either. However, if all you want is a well-researched, well-executed story where the good guys win and some Nazis die, this is a marvelous read for you.

Q: Why the application doesn't start for the first time, but starts from the second time? I am new to Docker and I'm trying to dockerize my application. I'm using MySQL and Spring Boot.
When I use docker-compose up, a few exception occurs:
todoapp-container_1  | The last packet sent successfully to the server was 0 milliseconds ago. The driver has not received any packets from the server.

todoapp-container_1  |  at sun.reflect.DelegatingConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance(DelegatingConstructorAccessorImpl.java:45) ~[na:1.8.0_111]

and a little bit down:

todoapp-container_1  |  at java.net.AbstractPlainSocketImpl.connectToAddress(AbstractPlainSocketImpl.java:206) ~[na:1.8.0_111]

Here is my docker-compose:
version: '3'
services:
    mysql-container:
        image: mysql:8
        environment:
            - MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=password
            - MYSQL_DATABASE=todo
            - MYSQL_PASSWORD=todo
            - MYSQL_USER=todo
    todoapp-container:
        image: todoapp-service
        ports:
            - 8080:8080
        build:
            context: .
            dockerfile: Dockerfile
        depends_on:
            - mysql-container

and my application.properties:
#SERVER
server.port=8080
#MYSQL
spring.datasource.url=jdbc:mysql://mysql-container:3306/todo?createDatabaseIfNotExist=true
spring.datasource.username=todo
spring.datasource.password=todo
spring.jpa.generate-ddl=true
spring.jpa.properties.hibernate.dialect=org.hibernate.dialect.MySQL8Dialect
#JACKSON SERIALIZATION FOR NULL FIELDS
spring.jackson.default-property-inclusion=non_null

The thing is, if I run docker-compose up for the second time, it works flawless without any exceptions and can use the postman for requests. I assume there is a problem at the moment when the containers are starting, I think I have to make the todoapp-container to wait until the mysql-container starts but I am not really sure about it.

A: You can control the order of service startup and shutdown with the depends_on option.
However, for startup Compose does not wait until a container is "ready" (whatever that means for your particular application) - only until it's running.
To handle this, design your application to attempt to re-establish a connection to the database after a failure. If the application retries the connection, it can eventually connect to the database.
There are other suggestions in the official documentation that are worth to look at :)

Q: IOs Autolayout top position I've a problem with my layout and don't find suggestions to solve.
My scenario is:
I've 2 views (a UIImageView and a UILabel) side by side and with dynamic height and I need to put another view bellow the tallest of the two views.
This image illustrates my problem, but I'm creating that views programmatically.
http://i.stack.imgur.com/fRSib.png
These are my constraints:
H:|-8-[UIImageView]-8-[Label1]-8|
V:|-8-[UIImageView]
V:|-8-[Label1]
H:|-8-[Label2]-8|
V:[UIImageView]-(>=8)-[Label2]
V:[Label1]-(>=8)-[Label2]

I know that my layout is ambiguous, but I can't to solve this.
Thanks for help

A: You need to add constraints with priorities and you need an additional constraint. Your current spec is ambiguous because there are multiple potential solutions.
The 2 constraints to position the Label2 based on the heights need to be high priority (the default). You also need another constraint of a low priority which tells the layout system what you prefer - I.e. That the y position should be the maximum, because the low priority constraint specifies that the label should be pinned to the bottom of the container / a static value larger then the possible heights of the other views.
The visual constraint language is a convenience but it doesn't allow you to specify everything.

Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer opens the company's Bellevue Square store in November 2011.
With the holiday shopping season wrapped up, Microsoft this morning announced six locations in the U.S. where the company plans to open its first retail stores of 2013. It's part of a broader effort by the company to increase its retail footprint as a marketing and distribution strategy, to have more direct interaction with consumers.
Here's the list of the first six stores planned by the company in 2013.
The six new permanent stores will bring the company to 37 full retail locations in the U.S. and Canada. (That number doesn't include specialty stores). The company is also reported to be planning its first European stores in 2013.
Apple had 250 retail stores in the U.S. and 140 internationally as of September.

On this installment of our Ask an Expert interview series, Tiggly sat down with Prof. Herbert Ginsburg. Dr. Ginsburg is the Jacob H. Schiff Professor of Psychology and Education at Teachers College, Columbia University. His research interests include the development of early childhood mathematical thinking and the assessment of cognitive function.
Tiggly: Please tell our readers about yourself. What are your research interests?
Professor Ginsburg: I work with kids and study how they learn mathematics and how they think about it. I have also done work that tries to create materials that would help them think about and learn different mathematical ideas and that will help teachers understand how kids learn.
I developed a program called Big Math for Little Kids, some years ago, with Carol Greenes & Bob Balfanz. The program has been used in many schools in the US and other countries around the world: Bangladesh, Portugal and some other places.
It has also been used in South America in a radio show in Paraguay, where remote villages don't have television, so the education people would broadcast a radio program every day designed to help teachers implement the big math activities. Isn't that interesting? I never thought it would work! I'm very happy with that!
Over the last six or seven years, I've also been working on math software called MathemAntics. We say it's math software "from 3 to 3″: that is, for 3-year-olds to third grade students.
Tiggly: When we are talking about mathematics for two or three year olds, what do we even mean by that? Is math relevant for that age?
Professor Ginsburg: Well, children at two and three definitely don't do math in the same way adults do. Obviously, they don't deal with written math and don't deal with symbolic math. By "symbolic" I mean the signs we invented for addition, "+", or subtraction, "-" for example.
What they are doing is dealing with some very basic mathematical ideas that they are challenged with in their environment. For example, they may need to know when they can have more food, and what "more" involves, or if they can have the same amount of food as somebody else.
There are a lot of situations when they have to deal with more/ less/ same amounts of things. If they are reading a book about the three bears they need to know that one is the baby, the other is a middle-sized mother, and the other is the big father. So they need to learn something about the order of size.
These are very concrete things they are facing all the time. We call this everyday mathematical thinking. As children grow up, they are going to learn more about how they can describe these more exactly in words, and learn how to count, how to write symbols that relate to these ideas and so forth. The idea is that children start with informal math within their everyday activities, and then hopefully connect that to formal symbolic math as they grow.
Tiggly: You talk a lot about informal mathematics and synthesizing and connecting it to formal math — what do you mean by that?
Professor Ginsburg: What I mean is that if the child knows that the baby bear is smaller than the mother bear, and the mother bear is smaller than the father bear, that's a very concrete situation and the child develops and everyday math to deal with it. Or if they have 2 candies, and their friend has 3, they will protest that that's not fair! They want to have the same.
Tiggly: How can parents do that? Does reading a lot of stories to them or playing different activities on software help children connect their informal learning to formal?
When dealing with 2- and 3-year-olds, the parents are not going to spend a lot of time trying to introduce written symbols — they would probably do better not to at all! Some of the best things parents can do are really to talk about these concepts.
Making pictures can also help. Have the child make drawings of the 3 bears and talk about how some are bigger than others and so forth. There is software that also engages kids in problems like that, like arrange these objects, from smallest to biggest and so forth.
So yes, parents can encourage kids' activity with software, but also just with objects around the house: "Oh, here is a salt shaker, what in the kitchen is bigger than the salt shaker?" The important thing is to talk about these ideas within the context of everyday life.
Tiggly: When you say parents should talk to their kids and ask them questions, it reminded us of your clinical interview technique. Is that something parents can do?
Professor Ginsburg: Absolutely! First, let me tell you about the clinical interview technique. The clinical interview is an attempt to learn as much as possible about the child's thinking. The interviewer, parent, teacher, or researcher presents problems, asks questions, observes, listens, and then, in reaction to what the child says and does, revises the questions in order to clarify the problem or probe more deeply into the child's reasoning.
It is really a flexible and easy conversation between the child and parent with the goal of finding out how the child arrives at the answer and how the child thinks.
For example, put five candies in front of yourself and five in front of your child, but more spread out. Then ask,"Who has more candies?" Ask to show how they know.
Clinical interviews can help us learn more about children's thinking, but also help children reflect on their thoughts and use language. One thing we know, and that we need to make very clear to parents, is that early mathematics language is very important. It's very important for kids to be able to describe in words what they are doing, what their idea are. It's very important for parents to say in words what they want kids to understand. It's also very important for parents to elaborate on the verbal descriptions in books, for example.
Asking the child questions serves two purposes: one is to help the child talk more about what he's doing and what his ideas are. The other is that it teaches the parent what the child is really thinking. Clinical interview is really perfect to do with kids of almost any age.
Tiggly: Can kids start thinking about addition or subtraction operations when they are young?
Professor Ginsburg: They can when they are young in some very simple ways. They need to learn, of course, at first that when you add something to something else you get a bigger amount, so very simple ideas like that are important. At the age of 3 or 4 they can learn to do some very simple counting in kinds of addition.
I thought you were going to ask about shapes though? And I think that yes, they can learn about shapes as well, and it's very important for parents to talk about those shapes. Most kids will easily learn what a circle is, a square, a triangle — that's not very difficult.
What they really need to know is why is this a triangle, and not a square, what makes this square different from that circle, and also this skinny thing is still a triangle.
So the kids need to think about the common variations that you see, and the more parents can help the kid and talk about those and try to figure out the rules for why is something a triangle or a circle, that's the kind of learning they need to engage in early on.
Tiggly: Can you talk more about stories and how they can help kids with math? Part of it is language; part of it is contextualizing math concepts. Do you want to add anything more to what you said earlier for parents?
Professor Ginsburg: I would tell parents that almost every story has some mathematical ideas in it. It's hard to think of a story that doesn't.
There are stories about big things and small things, stories about people going to places and space and all kind of things. You find me a story that does not have a mathematical element and you will win a big prize.
In any event, I don't want to exaggerate, and it's clear that some books have more interesting math events in them than others, and I'm not talking about deliberately math books like counting books, but a lot of books that have classical stories, like the three bears, really have some important mathematical ideas at the heart of them.
So parents first of all ought to read to their kids in general, regardless of the math; it's a good thing to do from a social, emotional perspective, as well as literacy. You are engaging in a fun activity with your child. That is very important. But also the math in the stories gives the parents or teacher the chance to introduce the math within an engaging context.
It should be an interesting context that helps the kid make explicit the mathematical thinking they engage in and help them talk about it, and then the other benefit is that the parents won't be afraid about how to introduce math to the kid.
Many parents don't know what to do so they buy these awful drill books in Wal-Mart, but that is not what we are talking about. Don't do drills, don't punish your kids — just enjoy the story and elaborate a bit on the mathematical ideas in the story. That sets a good foundation for kids' learning in the future. It also sets a positive attitude toward math.
Tiggly: Growing up did you have a favorite game?
Professor Ginsburg: My favorite game was stick-ball. It was a big game for kids in New York City when I was growing up in the Bronx. You take a broomstick, you cut of the broom, so you have this big stick and then you have a rubber ball and essentially you play baseball along the street.
Tiggly: What game will you play with your kids or grandchildren, or with any 3 year olds?
Professor Ginsburg: This is not with 3 year olds, but for a little bit older: all my grandchildren play "Sorry!" with me. It's a board game where everybody has a different color piece, and you role the dice and you can move a certain amount of spaces on the board but then under certain conditions you can nuke off somebody else's piece and prevent them from winning, and then you say S-o-r-r-y!.

Couple returns to courthouse 70 years after eloping: 'We thought that Crown Point might like to know what happened to us'
The Spin: Lori Lightfoot donates $500 she got from indicted developer tied to Ed Burke | Preckwinkle returned more than 30 donations from Burke fundraiser
Chicago Mayor-elect Lori Lightfoot. (Zbigniew Bzdak / Chicago Tribune)
The Chicago mayor's race shifted in January, when federal prosecutors charged longtime Ald. Edward Burke with attempted extortion.
From that point on, the campaign became largely about Burke and how the mayoral candidates would work to clean up City Hall.
On Tuesday, Lightfoot announced she was donating $500 to Reform For Illinois — the same amount her campaign received in March from a businessman indicted Friday in connection to Burke.
Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle, meanwhile, has returned many contributions that were raised at a fundraiser held at Burke's home last year.
And, Marie Newman wants a rematch with U.S. Rep. Daniel Lipinski.
Welcome to The Spin.

"Mayor-elect Lori Lightfoot has donated $500 to an anti-corruption organization after her campaign received the same amount from a developer indicted last week on federal charges alleging he steered legal work to powerful Ald. Edward Burke in exchange for help at City Hall, according to a spokeswoman.
"Lightfoot received $500 from businessman Charles Cui at a March fundraiser, Lightfoot spokeswoman Nadia Perl said. Now that Cui faces federal charges tying him to Burke, Lightfoot gave that amount to Reform For Illinois rather than keep money tied in any way to Burke, Perl said Tuesday."

Toni Preckwinkle returned more than 30 donations from Burke fundraiser, but not all checks have been cashed, records show

"Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle has returned many campaign contributions associated with a fundraiser hosted for her last year by embattled Chicago Ald. Edward Burke, according to her campaign organization's latest filing with the state.
"But despite Preckwinkle's frequent declaration that she's returned all $116,000 raised at the January 2018 fundraiser at Burke's home, not all donors have deposited their money.
"Preckwinkle spokeswoman Monica Trevino did not address specific Tribune questions about the Burke-connected cash, instead releasing a general statement that read: 'As stated previously, all contributions from the Burke fundraiser have been returned. We are following up with the donors who have not cashed the checks.' " Read the story from Gregory Pratt, Jeff Coen and Christy Gutowski here.
Report shows payment to Toni Preckwinkle's former top adviser fired for social media post

Toni Preckwinkle's mayoral campaign spending report shows top adviser Scott Cisek was paid $40,000 about a week after he was fired from the campaign for invoking Nazis to criticize Lori Lightfoot in a Facebook post.
Cisek, who is a former executive director of the Cook County Democratic Party and has worked for Preckwinkle's county administration, is a longtime Preckwinkle adviser. He resigned from his Cook County job in October, about three weeks after the County Board president announced she was running for mayor. Click here for Gregory Pratt's full story.
Marie Newman wants a rematch with longtime U.S. Rep. Dan Lipinski in 2020 Democratic primary

Illinois' 3rd Congressional District is shaping up to have a lively Democratic primary election next year.
La Grange businesswoman Marie Newman gave Lipinski a tough battle in last year's Democratic Party primary. She announced on Twitter today that she wants a rematch. Abe Matthew, a lawyer from Bridgeport, announced his candidacy yesterday. The Tribune's Dan Petrella reports.

* Outgoing Ald. Joe Moore criticized Chicago Inspector General Joseph Ferguson in a letter to the Chicago Board of Ethics, saying his "personal friendship" with Lori Lightfoot and "interest in running for public office" raises questions about whether he can be fair and independent of the incoming mayor.
In the letter, dated April 16, Moore takes exception to a Sun-Times interview Ferguson did last week "in which he acknowledged a personal friendship with incoming Mayor Lori Lightfoot and an interest in running for public office."
"These raise questions about General Ferguson's ability to conduct independent and impartial oversight of the new administration and to do so free of personal conflicts," Moore wrote.
Moore noted that Ferguson said "a definite maybe, sure," when pressed on whether he's exploring a challenge to Cook County State's Attorney Kim Foxx in 2020.
"This raises further concerns about his independence, as well as his dedication to the office," the alderman said.
Ferguson's office did not return a message seeking comment. (Gregory Pratt)

It seems that in the IT, there are many, many conferences offered every year that people are invited to attend in order to glean something of use. Which are the good? Which are the bad? There are a few points that may make a differentiation.
Local venue - so I don't have to travel – or a warm venue by the beach so I can boogie board.
Great technical content - send me away with actual skills and knowledge to help my everyday development dream. This will also imply interesting speakers.
Gobs of code - preferably hands on workshops/exercises, but even onscreen it's much better than psychadelic slide decks.
No marketing material - this is the number one excitement killer for me when looking at potential conf session schedules: it reeks of marketing.
Nice people - preferably attend with friends and meet some new ones to expand the code-loving circle.

Nokia Lumia 920: What the Critics Are Saying
This week Nokia held a press conference in New York City to unveil its latest smartphones running Windows Phone 8. The tech press had the opportunity to touch, tinker, and play with the new Lumia 820 and 920. Here's what they had to say about the higher end Lumia 920:
The Lumia 920 has a unibody design—there are no removable parts. The phone will be offered in five color options all made of a glossy polycarbonate with a curved glass display. The guys at BGR were lucky enough to get a hands-on, describing the build quality as follows:
"First, the build quality of these Windows Phone 8 handsets is fantastic…There are no flimsy plastic covers or cheap-feeling buttons, just a high-quality unibody plastic case that feels terrific in the hand…The curved glass adds a nice unique feel to the handset as well, and it really is a solid total package."
The phone's rear camera features Nokia's "Pureview" technology, designed to give users blur-free photos, even in low light. Pureview does this by combining a large image sensor (1/3-inch) paired with a Carl Ziess lens with optical image stabilization. The lens is bright too with an aperture that can open up to f/20. PC World says:
"The demo area also gave Nokia the chance to show off some of the 920's camera features, specifically its "floating-lens" technology for image stabilization. Side-by-side screens displayed video captured both with and without the image stabilization. The difference was remarkable: video captured using Nokia's image stabilization technology was noticeably less jittery and shaky than the video taken without, giving the 920 an edge over rival smartphones on the camera front."
The Lumia 920 is Nokia's first smartphone with a high-definition display. The Verge's description makes it sound top notch:
"... thanks to Nokia's ClearBlack and PureMotion HD+ technologies it's one of the more impressive LCD displays we've seen. Its 1280 x 768 resolution is even denser than most 720p displays, and it looks amazing: It has deep blacks and impressive contrast, and Windows Phone's Start Screen looks vivid and colorful on the device."
Like the other currently available Windows Phone 8 devices, the Lumia 920 features Qualcomm's own Snapdragon S4 processor. CNET says:
"Thanks to Windows Phone 8's new capabilities, the Lumia 920 will feature the same dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 processor as found in high-end phones in the U.S. ….This was a smart move, especially since LTE is already integrated with the chipset, and I'm expecting blazing-fast responsiveness alongside quick data speeds."
The Lumia 920 has many other features, most notably wireless charging and Near Field Communications. Additional details on pricing or partners will be announced at a later date. For more information on the Lumia 920 and 820, click here.

Senator Joel Villanueva today reiterated his call for the passage of a measure seeking to provide a "standard of care" for treatment of persons suffering from bleeding disorders.
Villanueva authored Senate Bill No. 1335 or the "Bleeding Disorder Standards of Care Act" citing cases of patients who died for lack of proper treatment.
"Tamang pag-aalaga, libreng gamutan at sapat na impormasyon tungkol sa sakit na ito, magiging normal po ang buhay ng ating mga kababayang may bleeding disorder," Villanueva said during the Senate committee on health hearing on Wednesday.
"Let's give hope to Filipinos with hemophilia and other bleeding disorders by giving them access to care and free and equal treatment that they truly deserve," the senator added.
Bleeding disorder is a genetic condition caused by deficiency of proteins in the blood called clotting factors. There are 13 factors in the blood, and when one of it is missing or is deficient, it results in a bleeding disorder.
The most known bleeding disorder is hemophilia, which was said to affect several members of the royal family in Europe starting from Queen Victoria. It involves deficiency in either Factor VIII or Factor IX of the blood.
Other bleeding disorders are von Willebrand Disease, involving the deficiency in the blood's von Willebrand factor, and rare factor deficiency disorders involving the lack of Factors I, II, V, VII, X, XI and XIII.
Von Willebrand Disease, the most common bleeding disorder, affects around 1 percent of the population, according to the World Federation of Hemophilia.
However, only around 30 have been registered with the Philippine Hemophilia Foundation. Hemophilia, on the other hand, registered around 1,500 cases.
"There is an obvious lack of awareness and understanding on this group of medical conditions," Villanueva said.
People with bleeding disorders can bleed for longer than normal, and some may experience spontaneous bleeding into joints, muscles, or other parts of their bodies. Women with bleeding disorders may experience menorrhagia (excessive menstruation) and post-partum hemorrhage, on top of other bleeding problems.
The World Health Organization and the Department of Health cited post-partum hemorrhage as one of the top causes of maternal deaths. Incidentally, the Philippines did not meet the Millennium Development Goal on maternal health. It is possible that a big percentage of those mothers who died of post-partum hemorrhage had undiagnosed bleeding disorders.
Bleeding disorders are treated by replacing the missing or deficient factors either through blood products such as cryoprecipitate, cryo-supernate, fresh frozen plasma, packed red blood cells (RBC) and whole blood or by manufactured plasma-derived factor concentrates and recombinant (genetically engineered) factor concentrates.
Villanueva stressed that the best support for people with bleeding disorders in the Philippines is establishing hemophilia state treatment facilities all over the country, ensuring standard care, and providing adequate funding for hemophilia patients.
"The cost of treatment is very high, and therefore, inaccessible to majority of Filipino patients. Through this measure, we can help ease their suffering by providing adequate treatment of bleeding disorders at lowest possible cost and provide free treatment for indigent patients, Villanueva said.
In countries such as India and Malaysia, citizens with bleeding disorders are given free medical treatment.

The Nikon D3200 has a huge number of pixels on its sensor. This means photos with huge resolution. I just finished rendering a 450 megapixel VR panorama. That's huge.
But 450 megapixels refers to the size of the equirectangular map. As we know, the map is a simple mapping of the angles theta (the left-right angle) and phi (the up-down angle) to a section of a 2D plane. Among other things, the mapping results in the zenith and nadir points being smeared out over the top and bottom pixel rows, respectively. If the map image is 1000 pixels wide, then we are using 2000 pixels - the two pixel rows - to store what really only are two VR panorama pixels. That's a 999:1 junk-to-data ratio.
How much image data is there, really, in an equirectangular image map? Let's think about it this way: The equirectangular map is the surface of a sphere, and we assume that the map was produced in a way that gives approximately equal amount of detail to every part of the sphere. If we figure out the area of a single pixel, we can divide the area of the sphere with the area of a pixel and have a fairly good estimate of the actual image data content.
For a 30,000 x 15,000 equirectangular map, then, the real amount of image data is 287 megapixels.
Sixty-four percent. I thought it'd be worse, so I'm actually happy seeing that number.
Some may object to the above calculation giving equal weight to pixels close to the zenith or nadir points. As I've written before about the making of VR panoramas, the interesting parts of a panorama tend to be within 33 degrees of the horizon.
That's just 35%. 156 megapixels of interesting stuff, from a 450 megapixel image. Ouch.
But what does the JPEG encoding do with this? Given that the image is more and more smeared out toward the poles, you would expect the JPEG encoder to be more efficient in compressing the data. It turns out that it does: The "interesting section" of the panorama is stored as a 112MB jpg in Photoshop at quality 12. The full panorama is 236MB at the same level of quality. So, in terms of actual on-disk storage needs, the efficiency, even in this worst case, is 47%, which, given that someone just might be interested in the zenith and nadir views, is "not good but acceptable" in my mind. Maybe future versions of the Java JPEG encoder will allow one to use a different quality setting on a per-macroblock level.

Revealed: why expats should register wills
As a result of the launch of a new registry by the DIFC Courts, expats' assets can now be covered under an internationally recognised common law
DIFC Courts' chief executive and registrar Mark Beer
Dubai expats can now for the first time register wills under an internationally recognised common law, following the introduction of new laws last week.
Expats' wills have historically been subject to Sharia law, which limits the scope for their possessions to be distributed where intended after death.
Sharia law insists on "fixed share allocation", where each family member gets a fixed share according to various factors. So, until now, the family of a deceased expat with a bank balance and other assets in Dubai, but no will, would have faced a long and painful legal process to release their loved ones' estate.
Even if you do make a will in Dubai, the process of carrying out your wishes in the event of your death would be prolonged as the document would not be globally recognised and could still be affected by Sharia principles when examined in court.
However, last week, Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) became the first jurisdiction in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region where non-Muslim expats can register an English language will under a globally recognised legal system similar to those in Singapore and Malaysia.
The DIFC Wills and Probate Registry has been established under the jurisdiction of the DIFC so that it can operate as an entity independent from UAE laws and significantly ease the process for expats' grieving relatives.
"There were previously two issues," DIFC Courts' chief executive and registrar Mark Beer told Arabian Business. "First, there was the personal angle. At a time when families are grieving the death of a loved one, prolonged inheritance processes can cause a lot of distress. There have been many heart-rending cases where families couldn't expedite the transfer of their loved one's assets, creating situations where they couldn't drive their car, renew their residency visas or send their children to school.
"Secondly, there is the question of financial risk. Financial advisers will tell expats there is a risk their estates will not be distributed as per their wishes after their death. Uncertainty over inheritance processes increases the possibility of capital flight, and also is an impediment to inward investment. It would be unfortunate if expats transfer their wealth generated here overseas because of this uncertainty, or people outside Dubai don't invest in Dubai for the same reason."
Michael Hwang, SC, head of the dispute resolution authority and chief justice of DIFC Courts, said: "The objective of the DIFC Wills and Probate Registry is to give expatriates a legal solution to secure their family's future after their death.
"The registry creates legal certainty that the testator's Dubai-based assets will be distributed as set out in their registered wills. The new regime reflects the spirit of existing UAE laws."
Registration appointments can be made here.

There are two major drawbacks. DIFC wills only cover property and assets in Dubai and the cost is high.
As an Indian expat I have just registered my will with the Indian consulate and ALSO had it endorsed by the UAE ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. This process costs a lot less , gives me the same relief and covers all my assets , no matter in which emirate.
All you need to do is get hold of a decent lawyer or wills expert , of which there are many.

Catholic Church cardinals implicated in sex abuse, cover-ups
By Nicole Winfield
https://cruxnow.com/vatican/2019/03/catholic-church-cardinals-implicated-in-sex-abuse-cover-ups/
The conviction of French Cardinal Philippe Barbarin for failing to report a known pedophile priest to police deepens the crisis confronting an already discredited Catholic Church hierarchy. The verdict handed down by magistrates Thursday shows the church's once-untouchable "princes" increasingly are judged accountable for priests who abuse children and the superiors who allowed the abuse to continue.
After centuries of impunity, cardinals from Chile to Australia and points in between are facing justice in both the Vatican and government courts for their own sexual misdeeds or for having shielded abusers under their watch.
Here is a look at cases implicating Catholic cardinals, members of the exclusive club of prelates that advises the pope and eventually elects his successor.
Australia — Cardinal George Pell
In December, the Vatican's former finance minister was convicted in his native Australia of sexually abusing two boys in the 1990s.
Pell was convicted of orally raping a 13-year-old choirboy and indecently dealing with the boy and his 13-year-old friend in 1996 and 1997, months after the 77-year-old cardinal became archbishop of Melbourne.
Pell has denied wrongdoing and planned to appeal. He is scheduled to be sentenced next week.
Each of his five convictions carries a potential 10-year maximum sentence.
After his conviction, the Vatican said its sex crimes office had opened an investigation and confirmed the Sydney archbishop restricted Pell's ministry after the cardinal returned to Australia to face trial.
United States — ex-Cardinal Theodore McCarrick
Francis last month defrocked the onetime leader of the American church after an internal investigation determined McCarrick sexually molested children and adult men; some of the molestation took place during confession. It was the first time a cardinal had been defrocked over the scandal.
One of McCarrick's victims has filed a police report and spoken to prosecutors in New York City, but it is unclear if any criminal charges can be brought given so much time has passed since the abuse occurred.
The McCarrick scandal has implicated high-ranking churchmen in both the United States and at the Vatican since it was apparently an open secret he slept with adult seminarians.
Chile — Cardinals Javier Errazuriz and Riccardo Ezzati
The current and former archbishops of Santiago are under investigation by Chilean prosecutors for allegedly covering up for abusive priests.
Errazuriz, who retired as Santiago archbishop in 2010, was recently forced to resign from Francis's kitchen cabinet after the depth of his cover-up was exposed last year.
His successor, Ezzati, was sued this week by a man who accused him of protecting a priest who allegedly drugged and raped him in the Santiago cathedral. The victim first filed a complaint with Ezzati in 2015. Ezzati issued a church sentence against the priest last year.
Prosecutors have overseen raids of church offices around the country. Ezzati and Errazuriz have so far refused to answer questions in the investigation.
Francis secured offers of resignation from every active Chilean bishop last year as part of Vatican efforts to clean up the Chilean church.
Scotland — Cardinal Keith O'Brien
O'Brien, once the highest-ranking Catholic leader in Britain, recused himself from the 2013 conclave that elected Francis pope after unidentified priests alleged in British newspaper reports that he acted inappropriately toward them.
The priests said they had complained to church authorities about O'Brien's conduct but never received a response. None of the men were thought to have been minors when the alleged inappropriate behavior took place.
In 2015, Francis accepted O'Brien's resignation after he relinquished the rights and privileges of being a cardinal. The decision was reached after the Vatican sent its top sex crimes investigator to Scotland to look into the allegations.
O'Brien was allowed to retain the title of cardinal and he died a cardinal in 2018.
Belgium — Cardinal Godfried Danneels
The retired head of Belgium's Catholic Church has been under fire since 2010, when he was caught on tape suggesting that a victim of a serial predator bishop keep quiet until the man retired.
Two weeks after Danneels met with the victim, Bishop Roger Vangheluwe of Bruges resigned and expressed sorrow for having long abused his nephew, both as a priest and after becoming a bishop.
Danneels had told the victim it would do him no good going public, and he urged him to forgive his uncle.
Francis has been criticized for having included Danneels, considered a key supporter in his 2013 election, in important church meetings since the scandal.
United States — Cardinal Bernard Law
Law resigned in disgrace as archbishop of Boston in 2002 following revelations he hid clergy abuse involving dozens of priests who raped and sexually molested children, the scandal chronicled by the Boston Globe that led to the reckoning in the U.S. church.
More than any other prelate, he epitomized the Catholic Church's failure to protect children from pedophile priests and its arrogance in safeguarding its own reputation at all costs.
St. John Paul II's decision to promote Law to head St. Mary Major basilica in 2004 reinforced the impression the Vatican still hadn't grasped the scale of the child abuse problem, the trauma it caused its victims, and the moral credibility the church had lost as a result.
At Law's Vatican funeral last year, Francis prayed for a merciful final judgment.
Austria — Cardinal Hans Hermann Groer
Groer was allowed to retire on schedule as archbishop of Vienna in 1995 despite multiple allegations he sexually abused young boys at a seminary. He died in 2003 without ever facing civil or canonical justice.
His successor as Vienna archbishop, Cardinal Christoph Schoenborn, in 2010 accused the Vatican secretary of state at the time of the scandal, Cardinal Angelo Sodano, of being behind a cover-up and blocking a Vatican investigation of Groer's crimes.
The same year, the Vatican gave Schoenborn a rare dressing down for his comments about Sodano, reminding him that only the pope can level accusations against a cardinal.
Vatican — Cardinal Angelo Sodano
As the powerful Vatican secretary of state under John Paul, Sodano has long been held in part responsible for the Vatican's refusal to take action against pedophile priests.
More than anyone, he has been blamed for blocking a church investigation into the 20th century Catholic Church's most notorious predator, the Rev. Marcial Maciel, founder of the Legion of Christ religious order.
Francis recently referred to how then-Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger – the future Pope Benedict XVI – initially failed to secure a sanction against Maciel, a veiled reference to the weight Cardinal Sodano wielded on the decisions of Ratzinger's Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith.
"He (Ratzinger) went with all his files. And when he returned he told his secretary, 'Put them in the archive. The other side won,'" Francis said. "But then, once he became pope, the first thing he said was 'Bring me the files from the archive,' and he started."
Eventually, the Vatican under Benedict sanctioned Maciel to a lifetime of penance and prayer for his crimes.

Legionaries founder sexually abused 60 boys, religious order's report says
Legionaries founder sexually abused 60 boys, religious order's report says
By Phillip Pullella
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-mexico-abuse/legionaires-founder-sexually-abused-60-boys-religious-orders-report-says-idUSKBN1YQ02Y
Sexual abuse of minors was rife among superiors of the Legionaries of Christ Catholic religious order, with at least 60 boys abused by its founder Father Marcial Maciel, a report by the group showed.
The report is important because for decades until 2006, including during all of the pontificate of Pope John Paul, the Vatican dismissed accusations by seminarians that Maciel had abused them sexually, some when they were as young as 12.
The order said the report, which was released on Saturday and covers the period since Maciel founded it in his native Mexico in 1941 to this year, was "an additional attempt (by the Legionaries) to confront their history".
Maciel, who died in 2008, was perhaps the Roman Catholic Church's most notorious pedophile, even abusing children he had fathered secretly with at least two women while living a double life and being feted by the Vatican and Church conservatives.
Cardinal Angelo Sodano, 92, who was secretary of state under John Paul, was for years one of the Legionaries' biggest protectors in the Vatican.
Pope Francis accepted his resignation as dean of the college of cardinals on Saturday and simultaneously changed church law to limit the dean's position to a five-year term, rather than for life.
The Vatican first acknowledged Maciel's crimes in 2006, when former Pope Benedict ordered him to retire to a life of "prayer and penitence". But Benedict resisted calls from some in the Church who said the order should be dissolved because it was toxic to the core.
The Vatican instead took over the order in 2010 and began a process of reform.
The new report says that between 1941 and 2019, 175 minors were victims of abuse by 33 priests in the order. At least 60, or about one-third, were abused by Maciel himself, it said.
Most victims were boys between 11 and 16, it said.
While the report said the 33 amounted to only 2.44% of the 1,353 priests ordained by the order, it said that nearly 43% of those who committed the abuse were in positions of authority, making it difficult to report or punish the abuse.
"(Abuse) was linked to the abuse of power and conscience on the part of some who took advantage of their posts to abuse," it said.
Of the 33, six have died, eight have left the priesthood, and one had left the order. Of the 18 who remain members, four have "ministerial restrictions" to keep them away from minors and 14 have no public priestly ministry, the report said.
Seventy-four seminarians studying for the priesthood also abused minors and 81% of them were not ordained.
Father Christian Borgogno, a former member of the order, said that the numbers of those abused were "clearly unlikely" to be accurate and believed that they were much higher.
"It is difficult to think that this is anything more than a whitewash of the (Legionaries') image," he said in a tweet. He said the reported lacked "independent sources".
After Maciel's death, Vatican investigations found that he had also fathered several children with at least two women, visited them regularly and sent them money. He also used drugs.
Former members have said the order was run like a cult, with rules forbidding any criticism of the founder or questioning of his motives.
They said Maciel gave huge contributions to the Vatican during the papacy of John Paul, who admired the Legionaries' orthodoxy and ability to produce vocations.

Everything about CasaSur was perfect. The owners and their staff were welcoming and helped with suggestions and reservations. We stayed at CasaSur for 6 nights - I learned that the average stay is 2.5. I would recommend staying at least 4 nights as Santiago and Barrio Italia have a lot of fun and interesting things to do.
I loved this small hotel. It felt like staying at a best friend's home. The bed was one of the best I slept in, the breakfast was truly delicious, and the service simply perfect. My special thanks to Sara who was a delight to talk to and get to know.

Democratic Mayor Luke Bronin announced the resignation Thursday of Police Chief David Rosado, a former lieutenant colonel in the state police who grew up in the city. The Hartford Courant reports Rosado is resigning next month to take a job in security with Pratt & Whitney.
Assistant Chief Jason Thody will serve as acting chief after Rosado leaves on April 12.
Rosado's resignation comes as the department is dealing with complaints from female police officers who say they were sexually harassed and received disparate treatment.
Rosado previously said that the department would hire a national firm to do a review of the department.


Environmentalism is a contest about the meaning of nature and the social construction of activism, deviance and harm. The contests that are the subject of this book are fought on the margins, in spaces where what is deviant and what is criminal are fluid concepts. Forest activists engaged in Tasmania's old-growth forests, and Sea Shepherd Conservation Society activists campaigning in the Southern Ocean to protect whales tell powerful and moving stories about their encounters with nature. These are profound experiences that fundamentally alter how they understand themselves and their world. What emerges in this book is a perspective that recognises the personhood of non-humans and which gives rise to a strong moral obligation to defend nature from harm. Providing a unique account of environmentalism, one that highlights the voices of the activists and the nature they defend, Radical Environmentalism: Nature, Identity and More-than-human Agency will be of great interest to students and academics of green criminology, environmental sociology and nature–human studies more broadly.

Q: Why does cat exit a shell script, but only when it's fed by a pipe? Why does cat exit a shell script, but only when it's fed by a pipe?
Case in point, take this shell script called "foobar.sh":
#! /bin/sh
echo $#
echo $@
cat $1
sed -e 's|foo|bar|g' $1

And a text file called "foo.txt" which contains only one line:
foo

Now if I type ./foobar.sh foo.txt on the command line, then I'll get this expected output:
1
foo.txt
foo
bar

However if I type cat foo.txt | ./foobar.sh then surprisingly I only get this output:
0

foo

I don't understand. If the number of arguments reported by $# is zero, then how can cat $1 still return foo? And, that being the case, why doesn't sed -e 's|foo|bar|g' $1 return anything since clearly $1 is foo?
This seems an awful lot like a bug, but I'm assuming it's magic instead. Please explain!
UPDATE
Based on the given answer, the following script gives the expected output, assuming a one-line foo.txt:
#! /bin/sh
if [ $# ]
then
yay=$(cat $1)
else
read yay
fi
echo $yay | cat
echo $yay | sed -e 's|foo|bar|g'

A: No, $1 is not "foo".   $1 is
ie, undefined/nothing.
Unlike a programming language, variables in the shell are quite dumbly and literally replaced, and the resulting commands textually executed (well, sorta kinda).  In this case, "cat $1"  becomes just "cat    ", which will take input from stdin.  That's terribly convenient to your execution since you've kindly provided "foo" on stdin via your pipe!
See what's happening?
sed likewise will read from stdin, but is already on end of stream, so exits.

A: When you don't give an argument to cat, it reads from stdin. When $1 isn't given the cat $1 is the same as a simple cat, which reads the text you piped in (cat foo.txt).
Then the sed command runs, and same as cat, it reads from stdin because it has no filename argument. cat has already consumed all of stdin. There's nothing left to read, so sed quits without printing anything.


Village Haus recently unveiled a new menu and Culinary Quest was there to taste it. Let me say this – the new and improved Village Haus menu is a great development in Disneyland Resort dining. We tried all of the new items and loved everything with only one small exception. There appears to be a focus on more unique offerings and fresher higher quality ingredients.
We shared everything off the new menu so here goes. They have a BLT Flatbread ($8.50), which is a thin crust pizza topped with smoked bacon, mozzarella and provolone cheeses, caramelized onions, marinated tomatoes, arugula and fennel. The fact that it had fresh tomato and bacon that hadn't been sitting there since Rocket Rods made it great. We really enjoyed the combination of flavors and the freshness. It tasted like it was made just for your order, which is a change for Disneyland counter service. It is possible to make the Flatbread vegetarian if you ask them to leave off the bacon. Next time around we will probably do this ourselves as we would have enjoyed it just as much. It was plenty of food for the price.
Another new offering is the Chicken Sausage with Sauerkraut on pretzel roll. This was good too. I am normally not one for chicken sausage, but this had all of the flavor of a pork sausage. To be honest I couldn't really tell the difference (and that's a good thing). It tasted more like an Italian sausage rather than a bratwurst. The pretzel bread roll was great. As I have stated in the past, I'm not a big fan of Disneyland counter service sandwich breads and rolls. They are starting to change my mind. The roll had a soft and fresh texture inside with a crisp pretzel-like crust. It actually tasted like a pretzel and complemented the overall combination.
Village Haus offers an Apple and Cheddar salad at $7.49. The salad comes with a tangy Honey Yogurt dressing and includes julienned red and green apples, mixed greens, raisins, cranberries, and walnuts. This delightful crisp salad provides a refreshing option. It also illustrates what seems like a move towards more freshly made salads and dressings throughout the parks.
Now for the desserts. Yum! The two new items are an apple strudel and a black forest cupcake. The apple strudel was served warm. The filling was moist and the crust was flaky; we both really enjoyed it. It was much better than I had expected for a counter service. Both desserts are priced at $4.99.
The Black Forest Cupcake was outstanding. First, it had real fresh-tasting whipped cream frosting on the top. Second, the cake was moist. Third, the inside featured chocolate cream and three candied cherries which was a delight.
Our one exception to the love of the new menu was the burger. When you offer a pastrami burger you are appealing to carnivores that idolize "Man Vs Food". This burger will not satisfy them, nor anyone who likes pastrami. The flavor of the pastrami was non-existent. No, I am not exaggerating. My wife didn't even know it was on there until I pointed it out. I asked a guy next to me about it, and he said the exact same thing. The horseradish sauce is not spicy at all. In fact, it was more sweet than anything else. So, if you are planning on ordering this hoping to have some Mom and Pop greasy spoon special, don't. The burger does have some redeeming qualities though. It has Swiss cheese and grilled onions, which is not offered at other places. If I were to order it again, i would leave off the pastrami and lower my expectations, and they should lower the $10.49 price. Then it would be a good choice.
Village Haus is my new favorite counter service restaurant in Disneyland. They have unique offerings which are tasty and can be easily customized to specific dining needs. The food was the freshest I have had at a counter service non-buffeteria style location. The other great thing about the menu is that you can still get the usual theme park fare if you wish, a la regular burgers, pizza, and kids meals. I am really excited about the changes and hope this is a sign of more good things to come for Disneyland counter service dining.


I clicked on Axdist.exe in C:\Program Files. Something happened too fast for me to see.
You must not run Axdist.exe on systems that already have Internet Explorer 3.0 or higher installed. Your setup application must test for the existence of Internet Explorer and only execute Axdist.exe on the system if Internet Explorer does not exist.
AXDist.exe (ActiveX) will install the WinINet files and the additional ActiveX controls—WinINet.dll, InLoader.dll, URLMon.dll, HLink.dll, HLinkPrx.dll, OLEAut32.dll, and STDOLE2.tlb.
Should I delete those files listed?
By the way, I do have Internet Explorer 6x installed.

U.S. Dept. of Interior Chooses Google for Cloud-Based Services
After a couple of years of jockeying, Google has emerged over Microsoft to woo the U.S. Department of Interior into going with a Google Apps partner for the agency's transition into cloud services.
According to a Twitter post by Andy Blevins, who describes himself on that account as "close to Microsoft and IT decision-makers," Google Enterprise partner Onix has been awarded a multi-million dollar contract to provide the DOI with email and cloud-based collaboration services.
@ablevins
Andy BlevinsWOW – DOI awards Google partner Onix Net Corp a $34m contract for email/collab. http://t.co/262SmhDJ 88k seats and complex migration! #risky 6 hours ago via TweetDeck · Reply · Retweet · Favorite · powered by @socialditto
As alluded to in Blevins' tweet, the DOI will be transitioning its 88,000 employees to Google's services. While this is all sunny skies for Google and Onix, Microsoft must be smarting over this one since they were originally slated to be the ones providing the DOI with cloud services.
According to ZDNet, the DOI intended to award Microsoft with the contract in 2010 but Google sued to prevent the deal because it alleged that the DOI acted unfair because it only allowed Microsoft to bid for the competitive contract. Google filed its lawsuit in October, which was only three months after Google Apps for Government was launched, so it's likely Google just forgot to make its dinner reservation and not so much that they were being purposely excluded. Nevertheless, in the fall of 2011 Google agreed to drop the suit as the agency said it would open up the competition to Google.
Lo and behold, nearly eight months after Google dropped the suit, the DOI announced yesterday that it was going to go with Google instead of Microsoft. ZDNet points out that the price tag for the Google deal, $34.9 million, is considerably less than what the DOI was going to pay Microsoft, $49.3 million. A spokesperson from Google welcomed the contract award, telling WPN, "We're honored that the Department of the Interior has selected Google Apps for Government, and we look forward to working closely with the DOI to give employees new communication tools."
Google must be feeling mighty validated over the results of the DOI contract since Microsoft released a comedic yet mordant video called Googlighting in February that painted Google as a fledgling upstart trying to cobble together a passable office suite with Google Docs. The implication in the video was that Google Apps couldn't hold a candle to Microsoft Office.
When asked for a comment regarding the turn of events, a Microsoft spokesperson said:
Microsoft has a positive, longstanding relationship with the Department of Interior and we are working on a number of enterprise-wide initiatives with the agency. Although we are disappointed by this award, we will engage with our partners and DOI to review and understand the reasons for this decision. Microsoft remains committed to providing our customers with the cloud services that have the performance, security, privacy and other capabilities they expect and deserve.

We booked Lewis to sing and DJ at our Vegas themed wedding and he was just amazing! Even before the night we discussed the songs, order of events on the night and the songs I wanted played to fill the dancefloor. He was completely professional, a fantastic singer and a joy to have there. So helpful! I can't recommend him enough, thank you so much for making outer evening swing.
It was my dad's 90th birthday weekend with all the family. Lewis was fantastic. He sang all the songs that dad knew and we have grown up with. He had us all up dancing all night. Not only is he a great singer he really is a lovely person. Thank you for making dad's night so special.
I heard Lewis sing at my friend's wedding. He was brilliant, he kept us entertained during the wedding breakfast and we found ourselves singing along! Great authentic voice!
