In the biggest mobile developers study in history, involving a whopping 6000 respondents from 115 nations, android is the most popular platform among developers. iOS came in second, amid findings that windows phone was shooting up with many entrant mobile developers developing for it than any other platform.
According to the study, 71 percent of mobile developers are already developing for android, while 56 percent are already engineering apps for Apple's iOS. 35 percent of developers are planning developing for Windows Phone in the third quarter of 2013 – which is more than the 26 percent who are thinking of developing for iOS in the same timeshot.
Developers build apps or more than one platform, with the study establishing that the average mobile developer develops for 2.9 ecosystems simultaneously – mostly a mix of android, windows phone and iOS. 84 percent of the time, either android, iOS or HTML 5 is the primary platform.
Blackberry has fallen out of favor in this regard.
Most developers choosing to develop for just one platform will go for iOS first, at 59percent against android's 49percent.
Despite the growing interest by developers to build apps for Window Phone, Vision Mobile says that it is still going to be very hard for the platform to break into the top two positions in the smartphone market – currently help by android and iOS respectively.
In the same report, iOS is the most profitable platform for developers, with the average mobile app engineer earning $5200 per month on the platform. Android developers banks in $4 700 each month.
It will be interesting to see how each company reacts to this report, in terms of strategy.

Q: Calculate $\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{1}{n^2}$ and $\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{1}{n^4}$ I need to do that using
$$\sum_{n \in \mathbb{Z}}\frac{1}{(z-n)^2}=\left(\frac{\pi}{\sin \pi z}\right)^2$$
I've already prove that this is true. The thing is that this function in meromorphic and it's poles are $\mathbb{Z}$. So the natural evauation in $0$ is not possible. I tried to think of a way to do it with that using that the singular part of this function in $n\in\mathbb{Z}$ is $\frac{1}{(z-n)^2}$, but could find a way. What I was looking was sort of substract the term where $n=0$ and divide by $2$.
For the second sum, I didn't find a clear way. The natural evaluation in $n^2-n$ is not possible since $n$ varies in the sum.
Thanks

A: For the first sum:
For $z = \frac12$ we have
$$\pi^2 = \frac{\pi^2}{\sin^2\frac{\pi}2} = \sum_{n\in\mathbb{Z}}\frac1{\left(n-\frac12\right)^2} = 4\sum_{n\in\mathbb{Z}}\frac1{(2n-1)^2} = 8\sum_{\substack{k\in\mathbb{N} \\ k \text{ odd}}} \frac1{k^2}$$
$$\sum_{\substack{k\in\mathbb{N} \\ k \text{ even}}} \frac1{k^2} = \sum_{\substack{k\in\mathbb{N}}} \frac1{(2k)^2} = \frac14 \sum_{k\in\mathbb{N}} \frac1{k^2}$$
$$S = \sum_{\substack{k\in\mathbb{N}}} \frac1{k^2} = \sum_{\substack{k\in\mathbb{N} \\ k \text{ even}}} \frac1{k^2} + \sum_{\substack{k\in\mathbb{N} \\ k \text{ odd}}} \frac1{k^2} = \frac14 S + \frac{\pi^2}8 \implies S = \frac{\pi^2}6$$

For the second sum differentiate the original series twice:

$$\sum_{n\in\mathbb{Z}} \frac1{(z-n)^2} = \frac{\pi^2}{\sin^2 \pi z}$$
$$-2\sum_{n\in\mathbb{Z}} \frac1{(z-n)^3} = -\frac{2\pi^3\cos \pi z}{\sin^3 \pi z}$$
$$6\sum_{n\in\mathbb{Z}} \frac1{(z-n)^4} = \frac{2\pi^4(\sin^2 \pi z + 3\cos^2\pi z)}{\sin^4 \pi z} = \frac{2\pi^4(2 + \cos(2\pi z))}{\sin^4 \pi z}$$
So $\sum_{n\in\mathbb{Z}} \frac1{(z-n)^4} = \frac{\pi^4(2 + \cos(2\pi z))}{3\sin^4 \pi z}$. Again pluggin in $z = \frac12$ gives
$$\frac{\pi^4}3 = \frac{\pi^4(2 + \cos\pi)}{3\sin^4 \frac\pi2} = \sum_{n\in\mathbb{Z}}\frac1{\left(n-\frac12\right)^4} = 16\sum_{n\in\mathbb{Z}}\frac1{(2n-1)^4} = 32\sum_{\substack{k\in\mathbb{N} \\ k \text{ odd}}} \frac1{k^4}$$
$$\sum_{\substack{k\in\mathbb{N} \\ k \text{ even}}} \frac1{k^4} = \sum_{\substack{k\in\mathbb{N}}} \frac1{(2k)^4} = \frac1{16} \sum_{k\in\mathbb{N}} \frac1{k^4}$$
$$S = \sum_{\substack{k\in\mathbb{N}}} \frac1{k^4} = \sum_{\substack{k\in\mathbb{N} \\ k \text{ even}}} \frac1{k^4} + \sum_{\substack{k\in\mathbb{N} \\ k \text{ odd}}} \frac1{k^4} = \frac1{16} S + \frac{\pi^4}{3\cdot 32} \implies S = \frac{\pi^4}{90}$$

A: Write this as
$$\frac1{z^2}+\sum_{n=1}^\infty\left(\frac{1}{(z-n)^2}+\frac{1}{(z+n)^2}\right).$$
Then
$$\frac1{(z-n)^2}=\frac1{n^2}\frac1{(1-z/n)^2}
=\sum_{k=0}^\infty\frac{(k+1)z^k}{n^{k+2}}$$
and so
$$\frac1{(z-n)^2}+\frac1{(z+n)^2}
=2\sum_{r=0}^\infty\frac{(2r+1)z^{2r}}{n^{2r+2}}.$$
Then
$$\frac1{z^2}+\sum_{n=1}^\infty\left(\frac{1}{(z-n)^2}+\frac{1}{(z+n)^2}\right)=\frac1{z^2}+2\sum_{r=0}^\infty(2r+1)\zeta(2r+2)z^{2r}$$
which you can now compare to the expansion of $\pi^2/\sin^2\pi z$.

Intervention 7 will be trying out a new way for Artists and Creators to get their work in front of the people attending the event.
What is a Creator Space?
The "Creator Space" is a set of tables located in the hallway of Intervention's function space, with the ability for any registered person attending the event to have the ability to sign up daily to get a half-table spot for the day in the Creator Space. Intervention is all about fan creativity and collaboration, so this is a great place to congregate with other artists and collaborate on things that our attendees can watch and/or participate in.
There is no charge for this. The creator can stay for as long as they want at their table spot. When the creator decides to leave their space (for an extended time, bathroom breaks are fine), the spot goes up for grabs to the next person on the waiting list for the day.
There will be a limited number of 1/2 half table spots available. This space provides a great chance for people to get their work in front of the rest of the event with no additional cost. Stay as long or as short as it makes sense to you to do so. Show off your work on one day, or sign up on multiple days.
If you are the type of person that wants to have a dedicated spot, where you can set up a more elaborate display, and have your items locked and secured overnight, you can apply for our Exhibitor Hall instead, which gives these and other benefits.
1) There are no guarantees you will receive a spot in our Creator Space on any particular day. All sign up ups are done first come, first serve each day, with the exception of Friday, which can be done online using the form below. Our Creator Space coordinators will go down the list and call/text each applicant and assign them a space. When all spots are initially filled the remaining applicants will be called whenever a spot opens up.
2) Creator Space spots must be continually manned by the creator until they choose to vacate their spot. Bathroom breaks of short duration will be accommodated, but longer breaks will be considered a vacation of the spot. Creators can add themselves back to the list to resume a spot later in the day, if one opens up.
3) Creator Space participants receive one chair and take up 1/2 of a 6 foot table. They may not place their items outside of their half space, even if the space next to them is not currently filled. You may also not have regular attendees of Intervention behind your table without first gaining clearance from the Creator Space coordinator.
4) Creator Space participants may not engage in music, speech, or other endeavors which disrupt the general peace of the location. In other words, no shouting, blasting of music, or other disruptive actions. You also may not "poach" customers from other tables by attempting to get their attention in an aggressive manner. Let's all play fair. Breaking of this rule will get you one warning. Further disruptions will result in removal from the Creator Space permanently.
5) At 9am on Saturday and Sunday, prospective Creator Space participants will be able to start adding their names to that day's list. When the Creator Space opens, the Coordinator will begin announcing the participants for each spot. There will be a 15 minute window of contact: If the creator does not respond or come to take their spot, the coordinator will move to the next person on the list and move the unresponsive Creator to the bottom of that day's list.
6) Creator Space participants may sell items at their space. If they have a Maryland Tax ID, they should bring this information with them to the event. If they do not have a Maryland Tax ID, they will be required to fill out an Exhibitor's Affidavit, which requires providing your name and contact information.
7) Creator Space participants may not sell commercial items in their space. Commercial items means items not made by the Creator themselves (i.e. general merchandise, general market DVD's, CD's, or any other items normally sold in retail stores–unless these items are made by the Creator). The Creator Space is meant to be a place for Creators to show their own work.
8) Intervention may use audio and/or video recording devices to record the Creator Space for promotional or commercial use. By applying to be a part of the Creator Space you agree to allow Intervention to use your likeness and any recorded footage/audio of your actions in the Creator Space now and in perpetuity for any promotional, commerce, archival, or educational uses.
9) We are not copyright cops and take no responsibility for your items. You are responsible for any and all legal issues that arise out of your items for sale. We will follow all laws of the U.S.A. and Maryland though, so please make sure you are aware of those laws.
10) Adult items and images of a sexual nature should be displayed in a manner that minimizes their exposure to minors. Images and items should be placed in books, boxes, or under protective cover with clear labeling that announces their 18+ content. Failure to properly keep minors away from 18+ items will get you a warning, with a second offense potentially leading to your removal from the Creator Space for the weekend. In other words, let's not be stupid and try to sell things to kids that they shouldn't see or buy.
11) Electricity. By default you will not have access to electrical outlets.
12) Illegal items. You may not sell any items that are illegal or regulated in the U.S.A and Maryland. This includes (but not limited to): Firearms, Tobacco, Alcohol, Prescription drugs, Illegal drugs, etc. Also, you can't sell food or candy, the hotel prohibits those items from being sold.
13) To take possession of your Creator Space table at the con you need to bring official government issued identification. Please note that you must be 18 years or older, or have a parent or guardian in attendance to sign for you if you are under that age–this is also true for submitting your application in the first place–contract law requires adult acceptance of all of these terms and conditions.

And they do the core, City Connects work of conducting whole class reviews — assessing the strengths and needs of every student in every school. They connect students to services in school; and coordinators connect students to dozens of community partners outside school who provide everything from dental care and mental health counseling to summer camps and after-school programs.
Last year, we delivered more than 248,000 services to students, of which more than 16,000 were provided directly by our coordinators.
"Every day coordinators bring hope to students because students know there is someone at school who knows them and their family well, and who will support them in their academic journey.
Our community partners really enjoy working with coordinators. Many see a huge difference in their ability to support children and provide the right services to the right child.
City Connects' program managers, who oversee the work of coordinators, also see the power of coordinators' work.
– Ellen Wingard, Program Manager in Salem, Mass.
– Julie Donovan, Program Manager in Springfield, Mass.
"I have been working in education for almost thirty years — for over three years with City Connects — and I cannot imagine a school without a City Connects Coordinator. While many schools say that they address the needs of the whole child, nowhere is it more evident than when a school has a City Connects Coordinator.


Determining if your operating system is causing memory issues within your SQL Server instance can be a challenge. One way around it is to use the sys.dm_os_ring_buffers to show when server memory is low.
Determining if your operating system is causing memory issues within your SQL Server instance can be a challenge. One way around it is to use the sys.dm_os_ring_buffers to capture alerts registered there that show when server memory (also known as physical memory) is low. This is especially useful in situations where you're running SQL Server on a shared environment with some other service or application.
You may also be interested in installing a metric that shows when virtual memory is low. See Low virtual memory.
This metric uses the sys.dm_os_ring_buffers to identify low physical/external memory on the SQL Server system. It uses the RING_BUFFER_RESOURCE_MONITOR to identify when the latest alert has a Notification value of RESOURCE_MEMPHYSICAL_LOW.
This alert is raised if an alert of type RESOURCE_MEMPHYSICAL_LOW has been sent to the ring buffers within the last five minutes.

Q: Disproving that a sequence in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ converges
Let $\{x_{n}\}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ a bounded sequence in $\mathbb{R}^n$. Let assume that the sequence $\{d(x_n,0)\}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ (In the euclidean space) is strictly increasing.
Prove/Disprove: $\{x_{n}\}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ converges

I am trying to grasp it conceptually but did not manage.
The sequence $\{x_{n}\}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ are bounded, therefore each element of the sequence is bounded and we can look at it, as a sequence of points in a closed ball in $\mathbb{R}^n$.
Now we take the distance of the a point from the origin, and the distance is strictly increasing, but how can it be if the points themselves are bounded?

A: Consider the following sequence in $\mathbb{R^d}$: for $n\geq 1$,
$$x_n=\left((-1)^n\left(1-\frac{1}{n}\right),0,\dots,0\right).$$
Does it satisfy the hypothesis?

Mr M. O'BRIEN — This budget is so flimsy, so lightweight, so devoid of substance that the opposition will deal with it here and now. The Treasurer's budget speech was about as convincing as a Johnny Depp court video but without the substance.
Far from getting it done, as the Treasurer boasted, this budget is all about Victorians getting done over by Labor: getting done over by Labor's broken promises, getting done over by Labor's greedy taxes and charges, and getting done over by Labor's failure to properly fund its infrastructure promises. Victorians are getting done over by a government too distracted by its own internal battles and factional intrigue to focus on the needs of the Victorians it is sworn to serve.
While the government may boast about budget surpluses, Victorians ask: why then are police stations closing and frontline police being cut? While the government says it supports industry, Victorians ask: why then is New South Wales blitzing us when it comes to creating new jobs? While the government claims it backs business, Victorians ask: why then is the Treasurer attacking us with new taxes? While the government pretends to support families, Victorians ask: why then are families facing higher power bills and higher rents due to this government's greed?
2016–17 year, Ford will end production in Victoria, Holden will close down its Port Melbourne engine plant and Toyota will finish up production next year.
The SPEAKER — Order! The member for Warrandyte will stop advising the Chair. I warn the member for Melton.
Mr M. O'BRIEN — Many thousands of jobs in the manufacturing, components, parts and supply chain industries will go as a result of the end of car manufacturing in Victoria. But where is the jobs plan from this government? How are these thousands of Victorians going to find new opportunities? We know that New South Wales is racing ahead when it comes to job creation. Since December 2014 New South Wales has created 81 275 more jobs than has Victoria. In the coalition's last year in office Victoria's economy created 77 950 jobs compared to just 33 837 that Labor created in its first year. Job creation is shuddering in Victoria under Labor. Declaring new public holidays, supporting militant unionism and ripping up major infrastructure projects — all of these bad decisions by the government have consequences in the real world. Despite Labor using TAFE as a political pawn, we know that fewer students are getting a TAFE education under Labor than under the coalition.
Victorians are entitled to expect a budget that sets out a clear plan to grow our state's economy and a clear plan to create jobs. Instead the Andrews Labor government delivers nothing but spin and slogans. It is simply not good enough.
When we look at the revenue windfalls this Treasurer has received, we see that he is walking proof of the adage: it is far better to be lucky than good. There are drunken sailors who look at the Treasurer and say, 'Mate, you might want to watch your spending'.
Let us take a brief look at just some of the windfall gains this Treasurer has received since the election without lifting a finger. Land transfer duties, or stamp duties, are up by $1.6 billion since Labor was elected, from $4.4 billion in 2014–15 to $6 billion this year. Goods and services tax receipts are also up. Victoria is set to rake in an extra $1 billion, from $12 billion in 2014–15 to $13 billion this year, thanks to the Commonwealth Grants Commission.
Then there is the Tattslotto litigation over gaming machine licences. When this case was first decided against the state, the payment of $540 million was made from the coalition's budget to the Tatts Group. With the final determination made in favour of the state by the High Court this year, over $560 million, including interest, came back into the state budget as a windfall gain. This is a Treasurer who has literally had a Tattslotto win — but that has not stopped him from hitting Victorians with new taxes.
The Treasurer is like one of those sad cases you see on current affairs TV programs, the type of person who wins the big lotto prize, buys motorbikes for all his mates and then winds up living in someone's garage looking for a handout. It is an extraordinary amount of money this Treasurer has received — billions of dollars in extra stamp duty, extra GST and Tattslotto windfalls, not to mention payroll and land tax, and the $6 billion to $7 billion that will be secured with the 50-year lease of the port of Melbourne. Even, I dare say, Kim Kardashian would struggle to spend it, but this is a Treasurer who puts Kim Kardashian to shame.
To add insult to injury, while the Treasurer is on a spending spree he is preaching austerity to local councils across Victoria. Under the government's rate capping policy, mayors are told to limit rate rises to 2.5 per cent. Clearly this Labor government believes, 'Do as I say, not as I do'. In this year's budget alone revenue is increased 6.9 per cent from 2015–16. If Labor applied the rate capping limit to itself, it would hand back $151 million in payroll tax, $448 million in land tax and over $30 million in fire services levies.
But the hypocrites in this government would never apply to themselves the standards they expect of others. The coalition had expenditure increases at an average of 2.6 per cent a year across the forward estimates. By contrast, Labor is busy paying off its mates in the public sector unions with sweetheart industrial deals and no productivity trade-offs.
Since Labor was elected the public sector wages bill has blown out from $18.5 billion to $21.3 billion — an increase of $2.8 billion or 15 per cent. This is not a 15 per cent increased investment in frontline services; this is the cost to taxpayers of backroom deals with Labor's union mates. Spend first, ask questions later — that is the Labor way.
If all of those tax windfalls were not enough, and clearly they were not, the Treasurer has also announced a raft of new tax increases that will hit Victorians in the hip pocket.
The land tax surcharge introduced by Labor last year is to be increased threefold, to 1.5 per cent. The stamp duty surcharge will rise, from 3 per cent to 7 per cent. These property taxes will not hit foreign investors, as the Treasurer would have you believe; they will be passed on to those who rent these properties, one way or the other. These new property taxes will cost Victorians $486 million across the forward estimates, and this is before we come to the new coal tax.
The appetite of this Treasurer to gorge on tax brings to mind the Roald Dahl book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. One character in particular springs to mind. I have thought about it. When it comes to tax, the Treasurer is the Augustus Gloop of Victorian politics — greedy, gluttonous — and I am afraid to say it ends pretty badly for him.
Under this Treasurer in only two years state taxes have increased from $17.9 billion to $21.6 billion, a massive increase of more than 20 per cent. And having gorged himself on taxes, the Treasurer pretends that minor fiddling of payroll tax thresholds over four years will offset the damage that he has caused to business competitiveness in this state.
I sometimes think that this Treasurer's purpose in politics is to make former federal Treasurer Wayne Swan look good. But I will say this for Wayne Swan: at least when he introduced a carbon tax, he had the decency to admit that it would drive up power prices. When this Treasurer hikes up the tax on coal threefold — the same coal that produces around 90 per cent of our electricity — he has the audacity to claim it will have no effect on power bills.
Peter Mitchell: Do you promise Victorians here tonight that you will not increase taxes or introduce any new taxes?
Daniel Andrews: I make that promise, Peter, to every single Victorian.
That promise was crystal clear — no qualification, no hedging, no conditions — so how can this Premier justify tripling the tax on the fuel that provides up to 90 per cent of Victoria's electricity? How will this Premier explain to families already struggling to pay their power bills that he has made a deliberate decision to make their lives that much harder? This is just another broken promise from a Premier whose words simply cannot be believed.
While this Treasurer boasts about the forecast surplus, let me provide him with a reality check. Firstly, we remember when he claimed a budget surplus this time last year. At the time we said it was a phoney surplus from a phoney Treasurer — and, sure enough, the Auditor-General agreed. He blew the whistle on this Treasurer's funny-money attempt to prop up a deficit budget with east–west link payments from the commonwealth. We now know that this Treasurer actually delivered a deficit of $286 million last financial year. The Auditor-General said so.
Despite this record of fiscal fiction, the Treasurer expects to be lauded for proposing surpluses totalling over $9 billion across the forward estimates. Yet this is exactly what he inherited from the coalition in December 2014. The pre-election budget update released by the Department of Treasury and Finance during the election campaign sets out cumulative budget surpluses of $9.1 billion over four years. So the boasting of this Treasurer is not only pathetic, it is dishonest. Despite billions of dollars in tax windfalls over the past 18 months, he has not improved the budget bottom line one iota. This Treasurer delivered a deficit when he promised a surplus. He has not cut taxes; he has increased them. And he has not reduced debt; he has raised it.
Let us nail the lie of the Treasurer when he claims that he is reducing debt. We know that the debt to gross state product (GSP) ratio on 31 December 2014 was 5.9 per cent. We also know that in the pre-election budget update (PEBU) Treasury forecast that debt to GSP would fall to 4.5 per cent in 2015–16 and stay at that level right across the forward estimates. Just to be clear: that was not Labor's work; that was the coalition's work for which Treasury accounted. That is the benchmark against which this budget must be judged.
So when we see that the budget forecast of debt to GSP in this budget is not 4.5 per cent but in fact 4.7 per cent, the truth comes out. This Treasurer has increased debt compared to the PEBU projections, and it will get worse next year. More Labor debt, more Labor interest payments, nothing to show for it — that is how Labor rolls.
With 100 000 extra people in Victoria every year, the need to build infrastructure to keep pace with this population growth has never been greater. If we do not build the infrastructure in line with our growing population, we shall simply see life in Victoria becoming more congested, more crowded and more frustrating. We are seeing the consequences in Melbourne today. Our roads are getting busier: every day the peak periods extend, while Saturday morning traffic is now as bad as any day of the week. Our trams and trains are packed. Our public hospital waiting lists are growing. Our state schools, especially in growth areas, just cannot keep up with local demand.
The very thing that attracts so many people from other states and other countries to seek to settle in Victoria — our unique quality of life — is at grave risk if we do not act now to manage population growth and develop our infrastructure accordingly. But this budget has no plan for managing population growth, no plan to build the infrastructure that our rapidly increasing population demands and no plan to encourage migrants to this state to see Victoria as so much more than just Melbourne.
But why would we expect a Labor government that has shut down the regional living expo to have any idea about promoting regional Victoria as a place to live when we have Labor's Minister for Training and Skills describing Geelong as, and I quote, 'Melbourne's biggest regional city'? Victorians who live beyond the tram tracks know that Labor just does not care about them. Instead this government views population growth as an ATM for tax revenue rather than as an obligation that must be managed. This budget has no credible plan for building the infrastructure that our growing state needs. A plan without funding is just a wish list, and that is all we get from this Labor government — an infrastructure wish list.
The hollow words of the Premier and Treasurer before the election, the promises that all of their infrastructure promises were fully costed and fully funded — those words have turned to dust. Where in this budget is the claimed full funding for the $11 billion Melbourne Metro project? Here we see that the Andrews Labor government has far more in common with the governments of Cain and Kirner than it does with those of Bracks and Brumby. The Treasurer appears to be engaging in accounting tricks to shift the Melbourne Metro project off the general government sector balance sheet. Labor appears to be trying to hide its debt funding of Melbourne Metro by the use of dodgy accounting tricks that would be more at home in Panama than in Treasury Place.
Despite this funny-money debt funding, the Andrews Labor government still wants the Prime Minister to write it a multibillion-dollar cheque on the basis of a paper thin business case. This is what the planning minister said, and I quote, 'We invite the Prime Minister to come on a journey with us'. Come on a journey with us? Will somebody please tell the minister Melbourne Metro is an $11 billion rail project, not a reality TV show. This government cannot produce a serious business case, but it thinks greeting card slogans will get it over the line.
The Premier also wants to cut South Yarra station from the Melbourne Metro project despite the massive development and population growth happening right on its doorstep. What is the Premier's excuse for ditching South Yarra station? He claims, 'We can't afford it'. This from a Premier who has never put the words 'we' and 'can't afford it' in the same sentence. Where in this budget is the funding to match the Turnbull government's $1.5 billion roads package for Victoria? No funding is set out. Where in this budget do we see the full funding for the removal of each of Labor's promised 50 level crossings? Nowhere. When it comes to state-shaping infrastructure, the Andrews Labor government's greatest claim to fame is that it wasted $1.1 billion of taxpayers money to not build a desperately needed road — the east–west link.
And what of Infrastructure Victoria, the supposed independent infrastructure watchdog so proudly trumpeted by this government? It turns out the infrastructure watchdog is actually an infrastructure lapdog. Infrastructure Victoria has been confined to the kennel with a muzzle on. What is the point of taxpayers paying $10 million a year to establish an infrastructure body that has not examined a single project of this government? What has the Andrews government got to hide? Why does it refuse to have its projects assessed by Infrastructure Victoria? It is a joke. If this government expects there to be any level of bipartisan support for the work of Infrastructure Victoria, it needs to put it to work and allow it to prove its worth, not simply roll it out as a convenient smokescreen when it suits the government.
When it comes to moving Victorians around this state, it is not enough that the Andrews government fails to build the infrastructure that we desperately need. No, this government even wants to prevent the private sector from providing services to move Victorians around. This government loves to trumpet its so-called progressive credentials when it comes to putting sexual politics into school curriculums, but when it comes to Uber, Labor is about as progressive as Cobb & Co. The transport minister has been looking at this for so long you would think Uber was one of those Magic Eye puzzles, and still the minister cannot see the bigger picture. The consumers of this state are way ahead of the minister, and it is time that she and her government caught up and acted to put Uber on a proper footing in Victoria.
The first duty of any government is to protect its citizens, and on this fundamental issue Labor has failed Victorians. In just four years the former coalition government massively boosted sworn Victoria Police numbers by over 1900. In addition the coalition hired 950 Victoria Police protective services officers, who are making such a vital difference to safety around train stations throughout Victoria. In less than 18 months Labor has cut frontline police numbers and closed or cut back on police stations across Victoria.
To nobody's surprise, except perhaps the government's, these cuts have delivered a significant increase in crime. Under Labor this year's Moomba transformed from a fun, family-friendly festival into a no-go zone for everyone except rioters, thieves and gang members. Under Labor we are seeing violent home invasions and carjackings become a regular feature on our nightly news bulletins, instilling fear into law-abiding families whether they are in their homes or on the roads. Under Labor we are seeing the no-pursuit policy leave Victoria Police officers on the front line feeling frustrated, disempowered and helpless.
Today's budget provides little relief for Victoria Police or indeed for Victorians. Police stations that have been closed by Labor remain closed. The number of sworn police officers remains far too low to cope with our growing population, and this means that crime will continue to rise. Considering this Treasurer is rolling in billions of dollars of extra tax revenue, why will he not fund Victoria Police properly? This tells us a lot about Labor's priorities. Labor can find money for a new logo, but not enough for police. Labor can find money for private ministerial offices at train stations, but not enough for police. Under Labor there is money for penguins, but not enough for police.
This budget is swimming in extra revenue from booming stamp duties, population growth and GST — yet Labor hikes taxes to hurt hardworking Victorian families; yet Labor sits back as police stations close across our state; yet Labor fails to develop a jobs plan while our car industry shuts down and New South Wales continues to power ahead of us; yet Labor refuses to tackle the unmanaged population growth that jeopardises the quality of life that sets us apart as Victorians. This is a budget of poor decisions and missed opportunities. It is a story of a government that cannot control its spending and has the wrong priorities for this state. Victorians deserve better than this budget, and they certainly deserve better than this out of touch Labor government.

Eyeball (1975) / Short Night Of Glass Dolls (1971) / Spasmo (1974)
by Martin | Aug 5, 2020 | movies, reviews | 0 comments
The original Italian title of Umberto Lenzi's Eyeball translates as Red Cats In A Glass Labyrinth, which makes very little sense and is all the more impressive for it. However, there is no doubt that Eyeball is more to the point.
This giallo is about a busload of tourists in Barcelona being preyed upon by a killer in a red mac who stabs people in the (left) eye. And when I say people I mean women.
In keeping with that title there is even more emphasis on the gaze than you normally find in the giallo, whether that gaze be suspicious, voyeuristic, or simply the blandly passive gaze of the tourist.
Tormented by the suspicion that his neurotic wife Alma (Marta May) – who he is on the point of abandoning – is the killer, hero Mark (John Richardson) looks anxious throughout. In a curious scene – which the dubbing only makes curiouser – he asks a fellow tourist to look out for his wife and, if he sees her, to photograph her. He offers no further explanation: he seems like a man caught up in a world of appearances and unable to break through – the tourist's fate in a nutshell.
In fact the killer turns out to be not his wife but his lover Paulette (Martine Brochard), the woman he was going to leave his wife for. Blinded in one eye when young, she has been visiting the same fate on her victims, plucking out their eyes and compulsively inserting them in her vacant socket (normally occupied by a glass eye).
You could see this as a symbolic way of breaking out of the 'tourist trap' and gaining an authentic insight into the surrounding culture (many of the victims are locals) but as pathology it doesn't quite convince. At least, not as the killer's pathology – as an expression of the hero's castration anxiety (he is essentially caught between two threatening women throughout) it works, and adds another spin to the English title. Eyeballs, when it comes down to it, are balls.
Whether such notions ever troubled Umberto Lenzi's mind is an open question, though one is oddly reminded of other films with a distinct emphasis on voyeurism – Don't Look Now (the killer's red mac) and Blow-Up (the photographer). Eyeball hardly belongs in their company but the sense that these ideas are in play certainly adds to the fun. My fun, anyway.
Mark ends up going back to his wife, having understood, through the crudest kind of symbolism, that the real threat to his manhood was from his lover – and also, perhaps, that tourism offers no lasting escape from your situation.
In some ways, however, the film calls Mark's 'manhood' into question by making him an essentially passive figure. If the 'classic' giallo normally centred on a tormented woman, here – and this was increasingly the case within the genre in the 70's – it is the man who is, if not actively victimized, definitely the one the world is closing in on.
SHORT NIGHT OF GLASS DOLLS
This trend is glaringly apparent in director Aldo Ladi's atmospheric debut film, whose title retains its original strangeness, and which begins with the hero (Jean Sorel) being found dead in some shrubbery.
But wait! He isn't dead, he has just been given a drug that simulates death by a sinister secret society of the old and rich. Despite this – and although active in the flashbacks which make up most of the film – he essentially spends the entire running time in a state of paralysis, like Richard Greene in Nathan Juran's 1952 Hollywood melodrama The Black Castle.
Greene leaps out of his coffin at the end all guns blazing, but this is not the case with Sorel, who is eventually subjected to an autopsy in public, a highly improbable turn of events whose audacity, however, transports the film into genuinely nightmarish territory, even as it presents our hero with the possibility of escape.
Unfortunately his twitching hand is stilled by a swift jab of a scalpel to the heart before it can alert any sympathetic onlookers to his plight. That we have been privy to his thoughts throughout – that, indeed, he has effectively been telling us the story – only adds to a crushing sense of our hero's utter powerlessness.
Back to Lenzi again, with a title that translates as 'spasm' but sounds so much better in the original Italian – a bit like a forgotten playground insult from the 1970's. Check out the trailer on the 88 Films DVD*, where they say it over and over again.
Here we are once more presented with an oddly feminized hero, Christian (Robert Hoffmann) who is in a similar position to one of those heiresses in thrillers who are forever being driven out of their minds for their money.
Christian finds himself caught up in a kind of constructed reality from the moment he finds Barbara (Suzy Kendall) face down on a beach where he has taken his girlfriend, apparently to show her the spot where he and his brother once found a dead dog ('It was a horrible sight.')
Soon this girlfriend – perhaps underwhelmed by his romantic overtures – is out of the picture and Christian is accepting Barbara's bizarre offer to visit her apartment and let her shave off his beard ('I have a razor in my room – big, sharp and sexy.')
At her apartment, however, he ends up shooting an intruder, whose body disappears. Confused, they decamp to the house of a Bolivian painter with a thing about birds of prey – the painter isn't there, but the birds are, and so is a couple to whom Christian confesses to the murder, only to be told that he probably imagined it.
Possibly this is the case since later on the same intruder reappears, only to be killed again – this time definitively – by Christian, who ensures that the corpse is sufficiently burned up that it could pass for his, since by now he has concluded that his brother Fritz (Ivan Rassimov), inheritor of their father's factory, is behind all this strangeness, and out to drive him insane and ensure that he has no claim on the business.
He's not entirely wrong, since Barbara and just about everybody else is working for Fritz – however there is no need to drive him crazy, since he already is.
Fritz is apparently only trying in his strangely elaborate way to encourage his brother to check into an asylum, since Christian is, it turns out, a psychopathic killer of women. Unlike Fritz, who takes out his own urges in that line on the extensive collection of latex dummies which he keeps in his mansion, and which turn up at odd moments throughout the film, hanging from trees or whatever, to add to the growing sense of peculiarity.
Christian's killings, including that of the girlfriend from the beach visit at the start of the film and Barbara, are shown at the end in what would have figured as a shock twist had we been capable any longer of surprise. Following this Barbara's ex shoots Christian, and he lies down to die on the beach where once lay Barbara. And, prior to that, the dead dog.
Not quite dreamlike but amusingly disorientating, Lenzi's film artfully avoids making any sense, and since it is about a maniac trapped in a plot constructed by another maniac, this is absolutely spot-on. Interestingly, Christian is not only the hero, and the victim (admittedly not the only one), he is the murderer as well.
Suggesting that, castration anxiety or not, the real message here is that there is no end to the male sense of entitlement.
*All of these films are from 88's Italian Collection.

Q: shinycssloaders doesn't work when deployed on shinyapps.io I have a app that works just fine without adding shinycssloaders package. But for some reason, after I added the package and added the lines (see below), it stopped working if I deploy it with shinyapps.io. The app runs fine locally, just wouldn't let me deploy it.
# load the library
library(shinycssloaders)

withSpinner(plotOutput("my_plot"))
# if you have `%>%` loaded, you can do plotOutput("my_plot") %>% withSpinner()

The error message I'm getting in the log is attached down below, but I have package shinycssloaders, and I've tried downloading it from CRAN and github, but neither works.

I'm sure this work because it is on their github page, but I'm not sure what I did wrong. Worst case scenario, I'll just get rid of it so it's not a huge issue, but it'd be cool if I can use it. Any help is appreciated!
EDIT
So I attached a sample code, feel free try to deploy it, did't work for me. But works fine locally (since it's a sample app, the loading spinner is extremely quick, but you'd still be able to see it).
library(shiny)
library(shinycssloaders)

ui <- fluidPage(
  actionButton("go", "Go"),
  numericInput("n", "n", 50),
  withSpinner(plotOutput("my_plot"))
)

server <- function(input, output) {

  randomVals <- eventReactive(input$go, {
    runif(input$n)
  })

  output$my_plot <- renderPlot({
    hist(randomVals())
  })
}

shinyApp(ui, server)

A: Since the log says Warning: Error in withSpinner: could not find function "withSpinner"
I went ahead added the package name in front of withSpinner function, so now in the UI function, it should be
shinycssloaders::withSpinner(plotOutput("my_plot", height = 600))

and it works perfect with deploy. Although it seems bizarre, because I indeed attached library(shinycssloaders). In my actual app, I attached it in server.R file, perhaps that's why.


INGLESIDE – Fire crews in South Stormont are on the scene of another brush fire, west of Ingleside.
Crews from Long Sault, Ingleside and Newington were called around 4 p.m. to the CNR tracks east of Aultsville Road (and west of Farren's Point Road) for a brush fire.
However, the fire doesn't appear to be as big as yesterday (Wednesday) when nearly ten acres of brush and long grass were razed by flames.
The flames through appear to be closer to the railroad tracks.
The township has been dealing with tinder-dry conditions and very little rain recently.
The cause of today's fire isn't know though yesterday's fire was caused by a homeowner that was burning when it got out of control when the wind picked up.

Scenes from a second brush fire in as many days on April 30, 2015 just west of Ingleside on the south side of the CNR tracks.


As a former IT professional, I tend to stay away from GoDaddy's services as there are simply better options out there (in my opinion anyway), but I can absolutely stand behind GoDaddy founder Bob Parson's recent comments regarding gun rights.
The billionaire founder of GoDaddy recently sat down for an interview with Inc. Magazine to discuss his thoughts on gun control.
"I own firearms. I believe I have a right to protect myself and my family.
"I believe I have a right to use them in shooting sports.
Parsons also praised his home state of Arizona for protecting its citizens Second Amendment rights. Arizona is one of several states that has constitutional carry.
Parsons is an outspoken member of the NRA and it's suspected he is a major donor to the organization.
He is also a big game hunter and has taken flak for posting videos and pictures from his hunts from around the world.

When did one-way mirrors become widely used by police?
Watching the BBC TV series "Life on Mars", the premise of which is that a time-travelling cop from 2000s England is transported back in time to the 1970s, where he is continually confounded by the politically-incorrect nature of policing at that time.
In one of the scenes, he is surprised to discover that one-way mirrors for police line-ups weren't in use then. Is this true? I always thought that one-way mirrors had been widely used by the police for this purpose for many decades.
law crime police
StatsanalystStatsanalyst
You mention the use in line-ups, but they are also found in interrogation rooms (as mentioned in a comment by Darrel Hoffman). The latter use also includes a speaker system for listening, and allows authorized persons such as other police, prosecutors, or witnesses to monitor an interrogation from just outside the room without being seen by the suspect and without the expense of CCTV. You may want to clarify, as these are different uses and the title question could be read as including either. – nanoman Oct 28 '20 at 20:22
"Time travelling" - ah, with this and Ashes To Ashes you have many revelations to come :) – Alan B Oct 29 '20 at 14:22
These one way mirrors are common in some media on police, but not even with TV-cops there ubiquitous. Are we sure they are common in real life? The question is about UK? My nitpick doesnt invalidate the question: either way, a statement can be made about when mirrors where adopted, to the extent that they were. – mart Oct 29 '20 at 15:13
Surprisingly enough, in England, screens for identity parades did not come in at all until the late 1980s.
A poke around the British Newspaper Archive (paywall, sorry) found this article from Nov 1986, talking about the success of the £4,000 Merseyside Police had spent on "one of Britain's first two-way mirror systems" (presumably what we would call a one-way mirror), and this article from July 1987 where West Mercia Police would be "among the first forces in the country to introduce one-way vision screens" following "an experiment in which the screens were installed in some stations earlier this year". It's not quite clear when they became universal, but it suggests forces were starting to roll them out across their regions at that point.
There seem to have been other experiments at the same time; this July 1986 article notes the success of an experiment in secretly videoing a suspect who had refused to take part in an identity parade, and circulating that along with video of nine other men doing the same thing.
So, why had it changed? Following some high-profile mistaken identification cases, the Devlin Committee on Identification in Criminal Cases in 1976 looked into all forms of identification of suspects. They specifically considered one-way screens (para 5.55), which had been recommended by an earlier report but did not feel that "the problem of the nervous witness is grave enough to require this solution".
(The earlier report that recommended screens was the Thomson Committee on Criminal Procedure in Scotland, 1975, Cmnd 6218 (in para 12.07); I haven't yet tracked down a copy of that to see what exactly it said, but the Devlin report suggests that they recommended something very much along the lines of the modern one-way screen system. It's unclear if these approaches were indeed adopted in Scotland prior to being adopted in England & Wales)
The Devlin report recommended giving the guidelines for identification parades statutory force, which happened with the Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984. This gave the Home Secretary powers to issue guidelines, and it is these new regulations which will presumably have established using screens, first as an experiment and then as a universal rule. This review outlines some post-Devlin changes, but focuses on video identification (authorised 1991, common from 2002, now pretty much ubiquitous) and does not say anything about why screens were adopted. I can't find anything specifically discussing it in Hansard, which is odd - it's the sort of thing you would expect to be announced there.
(A note on terms: identity or identification parade is the most common form in the UK, though the US "line-up" does also get used; they're the same thing. "Parade" is presumably from the military sense of assembling and mustering troops for a particular purpose - "sick parade", "pay parade", "church parade" - rather than implying a public event.)
Were these more common in other places at that time? Not sure how you'd figure out when they first came in use in interrogation rooms in, say, the US, but they've existed since at least as far back as 1903 apparently, or further back to the 1860's if you include the related Pepper's Ghost effect used in stagecraft. – Darrel Hoffman Oct 28 '20 at 17:46
@DarrelHoffman I wondered about that! Devlin doesn't say anything specifically, and I didn't come across anyone saying whether or not they were common elsewhere. I'd have vaguely expected a "widely used in America" if that were the case, but the absence of the comment isn't really evidence either way. – Andrew Oct 28 '20 at 18:10
Is an "identity parade" what Americans would call a lineup? – chrylis -cautiouslyoptimistic- Oct 28 '20 at 22:27
@chrylis-cautiouslyoptimistic- yes, same thing. I had both terms in an early draft but seem to have lost it, so will add something back in - thanks for flagging. – Andrew Oct 29 '20 at 9:30
I find this very surprising because those mirrors had been in use by police in the US for many years prior to the 1980s. It was, after all, invented in 1903. – Carey Gregory Oct 29 '20 at 14:14

Kaiser Permanente's Dr. Ronald L. Copeland on Getting to a More Equitable World January 13, 2022
Originally published on LinkedIn. Michael Fenlon is PwC's Chief People Officer. PwC is a DiversityInc Hall of Fame company.
At PwC, we just announced that we are the first professional services firm in the US to offer all client service employees the option to work virtually and live anywhere in the continental US. These are not intended to be short-term moves, but rather ongoing options. We know many of our people are eager to return to our offices and client sites, but we aim to provide our people with choice and flexibility while meeting the needs of our clients. In the current war for talent, what people want is not just more pay — they want to work for a company that provides flexibility and opportunity, shares their values and builds trust. Because of this, and because we've proven we can work successfully with greater flexibility, I believe hybrid teams are here to stay.
Since the onset of the pandemic, we've seen an increased demand for greater flexibility. The scarcity of talent means that leaders who don't listen to their people, risk losing them – or not being able to fill open roles. Business leaders in every industry are feeling the pressure to get their workplace model right, spurred on by the "Great Resignation." Executives are seeing the churn, with 88% of respondents from our US Pulse Survey: Next in Work reporting higher turnover than usual. Employees listed new opportunities, flexibility, expanded benefits, and compensation as their top incentives for moving on.
After 18+ months of remote work, there is no question that employees have new expectations about flexibility. In fact, our Pulse survey found 41% of employee respondents want to be remote, compared to 29% in our January 2021 survey. At the same time, many organizations have proven over the past year that people can deliver results and high performance with greater flexibility. That doesn't mean the enforced isolation of working under "house arrest" that we experienced amidst the pandemic, but rather a flexible hybrid workplace that reduces "the grind" and burnout, enables culture building and more attractive ways of working and living.
Providing people with greater choice and flexibility is essential to recruit and retain talent. It's not a matter of either flexibility or strong culture, but rather achieving both while hiring the best talent to serve clients/customers. I'm often asked what it really means to provide flexibility in the workplace, and what is meaningful to employees. There are no cookie-cutter solutions – the right approach depends on the organization, its people, and client/customer expectations.
As we move forward at PwC, we draw upon decades of experience in delivering flexibility to our people, keeping our clients at the center of everything we do, as well as important lessons from the past year, including:
Build Trust. Perhaps the most powerful ingredient in any team is a shared sense of trust. Without trust, it's difficult to retain and recruit talent, make progress on diversity, equity and inclusion, and build confidence among external stakeholders. Our new firm strategy is centered around trust – providing trusted solutions to complex problems for our clients and stakeholders and building trust in society. We also focus on trust internally – reinforcing our commitment to a culture of care and belonging, being a great place to build a career, and giving our people the everyday support they need to learn, grow, and serve our clients. Throughout the pandemic, preserving this trust has included prioritizing safety and supporting the evolving needs of our people. While trust in governments and the media is dangerously low, business stands out as the only trusted institution in this year's Edelman Trust Barometer. 80% of employees surveyed in our Trust in US Business Survey, trust their company the same or more now than before the pandemic. As executives consider how to provide their people with more choice, they have a powerful opportunity to build on this foundation with an emphasis on inclusive leadership and hybrid work arrangements.
Well-being = sustained outcomes. When people have the time and support to care for themselves and loved ones, to disconnect and reset, their engagement at work increases. This is not about empty promises – leadership modeling, benefits and protected time policies are some of the essential ingredients. We ask our people to create team plans that include flexibility and well-being goals – fully integrated with our client service delivery. Building these plans is an exercise in building trust. It's important to recognize that a culture of well-being evolves, just as we've seen mindsets shift over the course of the pandemic. We must innovate to attract and retain top talent.
Providing the flexibility our people want will not only benefit our firm but that benefit is passed on to our clients. We can bring the best talent to our clients in the most cost-effective way, reduce the risk of turnover and more fully leverage our investment in tech-enabling our firm. I welcome your thoughts and perspectives based on your own experience, and what you believe is best for people, our economy and society.

Q: Changing HTML element text with Javascript As a quick preface, I would just like to note that this is a very beginner question, and I might be making an extremely simple mistake or just typing some code wrong. Being the self-taught coder that I am, it probably is, but please forgive me if it turns out to be true. I've looked through various coding learning websites, and I haven't found anything that has worked.
So I have some HTML and Javascript code, and I'm trying to change the HTML element's text with Javascript on a button click. Here is my code that currently works:
HTML:
<!DOCTYPE html>

        <title id="tabTitle"></title>

        <button id="button1"></button>
        <button id="button2"></button>
        <button id="button3"></button>

Javascript:
function startGame() {
    document.getElementById("tabTitle").innerHTML = "Welcome";
    document.getElementById("title").innerHTML = "Welcome, Challenger!";
    document.getElementById("h3").innerHTML = "Would you like to go on an adventure?";

    document.getElementById("button1").innerHTML = "Yes";
    document.getElementById("button2").innerHTML = "No";
    document.getElementById("button3").style.display = "none";

    document.getElementById("button1").addEventListener("click", function(){
        let username = sessionStorage.getItem('username');
        username = prompt("Please enter your name:");
        document.getElementById("title").innerHTML = "Hi, " + username + "!";
        document.getElementById("h3").innerHTML = "";
        document.getElementById("para1").innerHTML = `Welcome to a novel game. These kind of games ask you multiple
        questions as you progress on a predetermined storyline. Each question will have 2 or 3 choices, and it is your
        responsibility to choose which path you want to choose. This game requires you to think, plan, and execute.
        Remember, each choice is predetermined, but you can still choose your own path.`;

        document.getElementById("para2").innerHTML = `We will begin by choosing your class. Will you be a Hunter,
        Warlock, or Titan?`;

        document.getElementById("para3").innerHTML = `WARNING: Reloading this page will lose all of your progress
        untill the saving feature has been added.`;

        document.getElementById("button3").style.display = "block";

        document.getElementById("button1").innerHTML = "Hunter";
        document.getElementById("button2").innerHTML = "Warlock";
        document.getElementById("button3").innerHTML = "Titan";

        document.getElementById("button1").addEventListener("click", function(){
            startHunterGame();
        });
        document.getElementById("button2").addEventListener("click", function(){
            startWarlockGame();
        });
        document.getElementById("button3").addEventListener("click", function(){
            startTitanGame();
        });
    });
    document.getElementById("button2").addEventListener("click", function(){
        document.getElementById("title").innerHTML = "Bye Then...";
        document.getElementById("h3").innerHTML = "";
        document.getElementById("para1").innerHTML = "Why'd you even come here?";
        document.getElementById("button1").style.display = "none";
        document.getElementById("button2").innerHTML = "<button onclick='location.reload()'>Restart</button>";
    });
}

As you can see, I've used a lot of the getElementById tags, which works perfectly fine.
What I'm wondering is if its possible to use a variable, like
var button1 = document.getElementById("button1); and then just use the variable name like button1.innerHTML = "text"; instead of
document.getElementById("button1").innerHTML = "text";.
P.S. Feel free to correct me on any of my code, since i'm still learning.

A: Great starting code!
In answer to your question - yes! It's very useful to do so as you can drastically reduce the physical size of your code & the number of queries to the DOM!
For example, this is a valid re-use of a variable with initial document query:

var p3 = document.getElementById("para3");
var someText = "No";
p3.innerHTML = someText;

Here's some useful learning information:

Q: Equivalence relations on S given no relation? On my assignment, one of the questions ask to list all equivalence relations on S and count how many are of partial orders.

*

*Let S = {u, v, w}. List all equivalence relations on S. How many of these are also partial
orders?

Am I to assume the equivalence relations are the possible combinations of each pair S x S ({}, {{u, u}}, {{u, u}, {u, v}} ...) or should their always be a given relation?

A: HINT: Since $S$ has $3$ elements, $S\times S$ has $3^2=9$ elements. Every subset of $S\times S$ is a relation on $S$, so there are $2^9=512$ relations on $S$. Fortunately, most of them are not equivalence relations, and you can ignore those. For instance, an equivalence relation must by definition be reflexive, so if $E$ is an equivalence relation on $S$, then you know that $E$ must contain each of the ordered pairs $\langle u,u\rangle,\langle v,v\rangle$, and $\langle w,w\rangle$. That leaves only $6$ ordered pairs that might or might not be in $E$. You could then take into account the restrictions on $E$ imposed by the requirements that $E$ be symmetric and transitive. However, this is doing it the hard way.
In fact, you know that every equivalence relation on $S$ determines and is determined by the partition of $S$ whose parts are its equivalence classes. What are the partitions of $S$? One of them is $\big\{\{u,v\},\{w\}\big\}$; what are the others? There aren't many at all.
Once you've listed the partitions, determine which of them represent partial orders. Remember, a partial order is a reflexive, transitive, antisymmetric relation. Your equivalence relations are already reflexive and transitive, so you need only determine which of them are antisymmetric.
