POSTSCRIPT / September 2, 2021 / Thursday
Duterte dares foes: Cast the first stone!
PRESIDENT Duterte threw down the gauntlet Monday as if to say "He who is without sin, let him first cast a stone" to the growing crowd of critics raising questions over his managing of government responses to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Several senators have become outspoken lately in assailing Malacañang, eliciting angry retorts from Duterte that the Senate public hearing on alleged corruption in the procurement of personal protective equipment is being used to spread baseless accusations.
Duterte warned that he has his own stones to throw, for example, at Sen. Richard Gordon, chair of the Blue Ribbon Committee, and Sen. Ping Lacson, among a number of public figures expressing alarm over alleged corruption in the procurement of personal protective equipment.
Taking advantage of the raging pandemic to pocket millions from emergency purchases of needed equipment and supplies is unconscionable.
In his meeting with his pandemic team (televised Tuesday night), Duterte disparaged Gordon's being obese and his "talking too much". He said the senator interrupted witnesses during committee hearings and cut them short before they could complete their responses.
As for Lacson, who had announced his plan to run for president in May 2022, Duterte threw a loaded question on what dark secrets the senator kept. A former national police chief, the senator had been linked to some high-profile kidnapping and murder cases.
"Are you honest? Answer truthfully," he asked Lacson. "If yes, sasagutin kita (I'll answer you) in my next program." He added enigmatically that he would present documents, but left hanging about what.
DUTERTE threatened to order his Cabinet to snub Senate summons if Gordon's committee treats them shabbily, or to refuse to answer unfair questions. He told Health Secretary Francisco Duque, who has been at the center of the investigation:
"Kung mapuno ka na, you just stand up. Kung i-contempt ka nila, hahanap ako ng paraan. (If you get sick of it, you just stand up. If they cite you in contempt, I will find a way.) In 24 hours, I will extract you."
On a clamor for Duque's resignation, Duterte said that while he saw no reason to fire him, he would accept his resignation if offered – contrary to his earlier statement that he would reject it. The general impression is that the duo would stay or fall together.
Vouching for the innocence of Duque in the transfer of P42 billion in DoH funds to the Procurement Service of the Department of Budget and Management (PS-DBM), Duterte said that the transfer was made upon his instructions.
If anyone has to answer for the transfer of the amount and its eventual use to purchase allegedly overpriced protective health gear, he said, it would be him the President, not anyone else.
SENATE Minority Leader Franklin Drilon, Sen. Risa Hontiveros and other senators have questioned the award of P8.7 billion in contracts to Pharmally Pharmaceutical Corp., a firm set up in 2019 with a capitalization of only P650,000.
The PS-DBM under then Undersecretary Lloyd Christopher Lao also awarded 11 contracts to Chinese firms to supply face masks and face shields that were later deemed grossly overpriced.
Asked if his panel would also question Sen. Bong Go, who had been mentioned in connection with big Palace deals, Gordon said he did not want to investigate a colleague, but that "when push comes to shove," the ethics committee may just have to do that.
Go, a former Duterte aide, has denied any improper conduct in relation to PS-DBM purchases. He also denied reports that Lao used to work under him.
In detention meanwhile, Sen. Leila de Lima tweeted on Aug. 29: "It does not take rocket science to figure out what happened in this transaction. Duque channeled P42 billion in DoH funds to Lao, who, in turn, directly reports to the Davao mafia. The Davao mafia, in turn, causes the awarding of the P8.7 billion PPE contract through Lao to one of their Chinese buddies, Huang Wenlie, owner of Pharmally Corp. The Davao boys are all happy."
DUTERTE noted that the fireworks of the 2022 national elections have started. That sounded like he was serving notice that he has explosive surprises (dossiers?) on his political enemies and others who might become a problem or get in his way.
In the same meeting with the pandemic team, Duterte defended former PS-DBM chief Lao and former presidential adviser Michael Yang, who are embroiled in questions over the administration's pandemic funds.
He said he appointed Lao to various sensitive posts because he has trusted him since the time he was Davao City mayor and through his 2016 presidential campaign. As PS-DBM chief, Lao signed contracts and purchase orders with Pharmally that are now being investigated.
"Anong masama kung magbayad ako ng utang (What's wrong with paying my debts)?" he asked.
As for Yang, Duterte described him as the contact person of Chinese investors who want to do business in the Philippines:
"Kasi si Michael Yang daw, negosyante ito adre, hindi naman ito nagtatapon ng pera. May contact ito sa China na malalaking korporasyon at siya ang nag-pagador, made their entry here. (Because Michael Yang is a businessman, he doesn't throw away money. He has contacts with big corporations in China and he's their entry here.)"
"I thought, let us go to China and invite the investors here? There, they invested, but during the time of the pandemic. What's wrong with that?" he asked.

Mediterranean UNESCO World Heritage at risk from coastal flooding and erosion due to sea-level rise
Lena Reimann*, Athanasios T. Vafeidis, Sally Brown, Jochen Hinkel, Richard S.J. Tol
UNESCO World Heritage sites (WHS) located in coastal areas are increasingly at risk from coastal hazards due to sea-level rise. In this study, we assess Mediterranean cultural WHS at risk from coastal flooding and erosion under four sea-level rise scenarios until 2100. Based on the analysis of spatially explicit WHS data, we develop an index-based approach that allows for ranking WHS at risk from both coastal hazards. Here we show that of 49 cultural WHS located in low-lying coastal areas of the Mediterranean, 37 are at risk from a 100-year flood and 42 from coastal erosion, already today. Until 2100, flood risk may increase by 50% and erosion risk by 13% across the region, with considerably higher increases at individual WHS. Our results provide a first-order assessment of where adaptation is most urgently needed and can support policymakers in steering local-scale research to devise suitable adaptation strategies for each WHS.

Tag Archives: Jordan Peele
Us – Movie Review
March 25, 2019 objectivelyblackHorror Movies, Jordan Peele, Lupita Nyongo, Movies, Objectively Black Leave a comment
Jordan Peele's newest film dropped this March, 2019. Since winning an Oscar for the thought provoking Get Out, he's been one of Hollywood's most sought after Director/Producers. Not only is he producing several upcoming projects, he's been hired by CBS to relaunch "The Twilight Zone" this fall on CBS.
Ever since we heard the unmistakable low tones of "I Got 5 On It" during the trailer for Us last fall, audiences have been eagerly awaiting Peele's 2nd feature film with anticipation. Get Out was not only horrifying and starting, it also delivered in making audiences socially and politically uncomfortable by commenting directly on how black and white Americans interact with one another socially, romantically, and politically.
Part of the anticipation for Us was the nervous wondering aloud: "Can Peele do it again, or was Get Out just a once in a lifetime film"?
The answer for us is a resounding "Yes".
Idris Gray: Going into the movie I had high hopes and preconceived notions about what I was about to see. I figured Jordan Peele was going to flip the typical scary movie/thriller on its head and give us something new and thought provoking. Something that made somewhat of a social or political statement. Here at Objectively Black we are not about spoilers or robbing our readers of any surprises so I'm not going to tell you if those expectations were met. But what I will say is that I came out of the movie thoroughly satisfied with what I had seen.
The movie scored high for me on the storyline alone. The plot and subsequent plot twist was so well written and led you on a journey that had you questioning what the fuck was going on for the better part of two hours. The movie gently grabs your curiosity and pulls you in more as you continue watching eventually you start trying to put all the clues together as you watch. Do yourself a favor and don't try and figure it out, just watch the film.
As far as the cast goes, they all did an amazing job. If you've seen the trailers then you know at the very least that the main characters are confronted by antagonists that look exactly like them. No spoiler there. So essentially each actor played 2 separate roles through the course of the movie. And oh, lets not forget Lupita Nyong'o. She really went in on this role. If it wasn't for the ominous music providing a constant reminder, you'd end up wondering if Us is a horror, thriller or drama. And that's mostly because of her performance.
I don't want to give away anything more than this. I know I'm not telling you much besides "It's great". But you really won't be disappointed here. Whether you are a casual or die hard fan of the horror genre or more so someone who doesn't watch scary movies but just liked how poignant "Get Out" was, you'll enjoy this film. I'll definitely be watching again.
F. Dougie: So first of all, I thought that the concept was incredibly interesting. The duality of playing people against evil versions of themselves has always been one of my favorite fantasy tropes. This iteration of that idea was expertly written and executed. The movie is very heavy on setup, but even though the first 20 minutes or so are big on exposition, the payoff (if you are paying attention) is huge. It has a way of keeping you on the edge of your seat because you just want to understand what the hell is going on.
This is a flat out horrifying movie in a genre that has a tendency to get kind of cheesy. I thought that Lupita Nyong'o did an amazing job leading the cast in a role that called for her to essentially play 2 different characters. She hit every emotion that you could hit as an actor and if this is the kind of performance that warrants an Oscar, she should definitely be in consideration.
Winston Duke bought the funny as the goofy, boat-loving and loveable patriarch of the family. Without giving too much away, his corny dad jokes are so on point, that by the time we actually need him to toughen up, it's hard to believe that he could actually hurt a fly.
All of the characters were very developed and the new young actors did their thing as well. Especially the young daughter.
All in all, I'll definitely be seeing this one again. Unlike Get Out, it's not political per se, but there are possibly some heavy ideas here for you to chew on while Jordan peele is scaring the hell out of you. Aside from the above, I can't help but shake the feeling that Peele is making some pointed comments about America and the way that we deal with others. We love to "point fingers", but most of the damage to our country has been done from within. Sometimes, we can be our own worst enemies.

Candidates weigh in on Clinton support for Emanuel
Candidate Danny Davis wants Clinton to stay out of the race for mayor. Other candidates are using the opportunity to call Emanuel an outsider.
Clinton's trip to Chicago to stump for Emanuel generated a second day of talk on radio Wednesday. Several of Cliff Kelly's listeners on WVON agree with Davis's call to keep Clinton out of local politics. And on Wednesday the contest's other African-American candidate, Carol Moseley Braun, chimed in.
"If he's going to bring in Former President Clinton, he might want to consider bringing in Representative Bart Stupak who helped him kill choice for women in the new health care bill. He might want to consider bringing Leland Brendsel and all those people from of Freddie Mac who helped him precipitate the mortgage crisis that we're looking at," she said.
Moseley Braun, who was appointed by Clinton as an ambassador, says a Clinton visit is another example of an outsider helping an outsider. Painting Emanuel as someone not from Chicago is a popular theme among his opponents.
Rahm Emanuel was all about Washington," said mayoral candidate Gery Chico.
"I think Chicagoans are going to select the next mayor not based on endorsements from out of state," said mayoral candidate Miguel del Valle.
Stumping for Rahm is nothing new for the former president. Clinton helped his former White House aide back in 2002 when Emanuel ran for Congress. But will Clinton's help make a difference in the mayor's race?
"It reminds everybody that Rahm indeed worked for the Clinton White House as he did for the Obama White House. But it's not like it's an endorsement from a Daley," said Dick Simpson, professor of political science, University of Illinois at Chicago.
Davis has been the most outspoken about the Clinton visit. The West Side congressman denies playing the race card when he says an Emanuel endorsement would damage the former president's long relationship with the African-American community.
"I would hope that he would not come to Chicago unless he is coming to support me," Davis said.
Davis says he would be against a Clinton visit if it was for Carol Moseley Braun or another African-American candidate.
The Emanuel campaign will not comment on the Clinton visit. However, it did release a written statement responding to Moseley Braun's comments. It reads in part, "these comments are inaccurate, divisive, and fail to demonstrate the kind of leadership Chicago needs from its next mayor."

Q: Converting integers to their roman numeral equivalents Given this chart:

I want to convert integers into their respected Roman letters. For example, let's say we have a list of integers like: [1, 49, 23]. The method should return something like this:['I', 'XLIX', 'XXIII']. 49 is 40 + 9 so it'll be 'XLIX'.
Here's what I wrote so far in Java:
public static List<String> romanizer(List<Integer> numbers) {
        String[] romanLetters = {"I", "IV", "V", "IX", "X", "XL", "L", "XC", "C", "CD", "D", "CM", "M" };
        int[] numberArray = { 1, 4, 5, 9, 10, 40, 50, 90, 100, 400, 500, 900, 1000 };
        ArrayList<String> result = new ArrayList<>();
        int times = 0;

        for (int h = numberArray.length - 1; h >= 0; h--) {
            for (int d = 0; d < numbers.size(); d++) {
                times = numbers.get(d) / numberArray[h];
                numbers.set(d, numbers.get(d) % numberArray[h]);
            }
            while (times > 0) {
                result.add(romanLetters[h]);
                times--;
            }
        }
        return result;
    }

But I got something like this instead: [X, X, I, I, I]. Anyone can help/see the issue?

A: To minimize confusion, I suggest making two function instead of one:
private static final String[] ROMAN_LETTERS = {"I", "IV", "V", "IX", "X", "XL", "L", "XC", "C", "CD", "D", "CM",  "M" };
private static final int[] ROMAN_NUMBERS    = {  1,    4,   5,    9,  10,   40,  50,   90, 100,  400, 500,  900, 1000 };

public static String romanizer(int num) {
    StringBuilder result = new StringBuilder();
    for (int h = ROMAN_NUMBERS.length - 1; h >= 0; h--) {
        result.append(ROMAN_LETTERS[h].repeat(num / ROMAN_NUMBERS[h]));
        num = num % ROMAN_NUMBERS[h];
    }
    return result.toString();
}

public static List<String> romanizer(List<Integer> numbers) {
    List<String> result = new ArrayList<>();
    for (int num : numbers)
        result.add(romanizer(num));
    return result;
}

CricFlex is Developing a Next-Gen Wearable Sleeve for Cricketers
by	Bullpen	/ Tuesday, 13 August 2019	/ Published in Feature, Interview, Technology
What started off as a university project has evolved into a fully-fledged startup called CricFlex.
Designed for cricketers, CricFlex is a wearable sleeve, like a compression sleeve worn by basketballers or baseballers, but is embedded with sensors to make it smarter. The purpose was initially designed to test an illegal bowling action but has now grown into a wearable that is for all bowlers to work on their action and technique.
Abdullah Ahmed is originally from Islamabad, Pakistan, and of course cricket crazy, but is now based in the Bay Area and we had an in-depth conversation with him about his company's journey and the development of his product.
You pitched your tech at SXSW, it's quite early on in your business journey to be pitching at such an event.
Abdullah Ahmed: "It was a wonderful experience to pitch at SXSW alongside a lot of cool sports tech companies. Coming to the US it's always interesting to meet people that don't normally get cricket! You explain it with respect to baseball, instead of a pitcher it's a bowler (laughs)!"
The type of sleeve you're developing, have you been getting interest or queries about the potential of the sleeve for baseball?
AA: "Oh yes of course, the first reactions when we've explained what we're doing with cricket is, 'how can we use this in baseball or basketball, even golf or tennis?'
"What we're doing is measuring your arm motion and in any other sport which there's arm motion – which most sports have – we could move into other sports if we tweaked the feature set a little bit, things like the terminology. The phrasing and terminology specific to each sport is obviously different but the core technology remains the same."
Tell me about the validation process for the sleeve in the last 18 months?
AA: "We started off as a university project in 2015 because Saeed Ajmal, who used to be the top ranked bowler in the world, was banned for having an illegal bowling action. We knew the rule and how it worked but we didn't know the finer details of it. I was disheartened that Pakistan's top bowler was getting banned for an illegal action so I started looking into the problem.
"The problem for the umpire is it's difficult for them to tell whether a bowler is bowling within that 15-degree allowance. With your eyes you can't tell or elaborate if it's 14, 15 or 16 degrees. If it is deemed you have an illegal action the International Cricket Council (ICC) will get a bowler to go to a biomechanics lab and there's only five in the world, a person would have to fly to England or Australia to get their action tested. The thing is the bowler would be tweaking their action a little bit and could get away with it. It's difficult to show what the bowler was doing on the field will be the same in the lab as well.
"We started with the legality issue then we saw a bigger opportunity. If a bowler bowled illegally there would be no value-add for them to use the sleeve, we need to provide value for bowlers who are bowling legally so they can use it too. That's where we saw the best opportunity in sports performance and performance analysis and we came up with different features like arm speed, arm force, how much is the arm twisting, action time, run up speed versus run up distance.
"The validation process was when we started off we wrote a research paper on the technology which got accepted at an MIT conference. In 2015 I went to MIT and presented our research, the purpose of publishing that research was to prove the accuracy of the system, this is a system which is accurate within plus or negative one degrees. The testing we did at that time wasn't in a biomechanics lab but we were able to set up a similar system with multiple cameras, a bowler bowling and recorded that and do some post processing to get some angles from that footage and compare it to results from our sleeve as well. We did some calibration testing and tested the sensors that were being used on the sleeve and published those results. After presenting at MIT we got some exposure in the US and when we returned to Pakistan we won some local startup competitions, got some traction from there and when I graduated in 2016 that's when we thought it would be a good idea to pursue it as a fully-fledged startup.
"The biggest challenge we faced was of product design, we were techies so had the hardware and software part figured out but the product design was really tough because if a bowler is going to wear it for three to four hours, they sweat, if a bowler bowls with a lot of force the sleeve would slip. So we had to make the sleeve seamless and comfortable but sturdy enough to stay in place. Then we were able to put in design considerations such as washability, breathability."
You are doing some work with the Pakistani Cricket Board (PCB)?
AA: "The PCB were able to set up a biomechanics lab in partnership with a university in Lahore. We got to learn how that lab worked and do some initial, dry test runs as well. The initial test runs that we did have been really promising.
"We've been working with a lot of coaches as well. I'm from Islamabad and my local team is the Islamabad Leopards, one of their coaches has helped us in terms of informing what a coach wants to see in the product."
What range of bowlers have you been able to test the sleeve with? Wouldn't you need a cross-section of bowlers from grassroots, to club cricket up to the national level to benchmark?
AA: "Yes, we've been doing a lot of testing with players at the grassroots level such as local clubs and academies.
"The PCB doesn't give freedom to the bowlers to use technology such as this on their own. A bowler who is contracted to PCB would need to have approval to test it which is a challenge that we've been facing.
"At the grassroots level at the clubs and academies we've been working extensively with many different bowling types – leg and off spinners, fast and medium pacers – a range and variety of bowlers.
"A brief example is someone like me, I'm a fast bowler and I thought I was a fast bowler until I wore the sleeve as a test on myself I found out the maximum force that I could hit was 1200 newtons. When we went to a club and tested it on a normal fast bowler they were able to get up to 3000 newtons! Nearly three times as much as me!"
Have you had conversations or feedback from any of cricket's major governing bodies, such as the PCB, about your wearable tech?
AA: "Yes we have. We've met with Mudassar Nazar, Head of NCA (National Cricket Academy) from the PCB, he now heads the national cricket academy in Lahore. We've gotten the chance to meet him to demo the product, he wore the sleeve himself and he was really keen on the product. What they're interested in is the PCB runs a lot of trials at junior level and what they would do is go out to assorted areas around Pakistan to scout the best talent around but it's quite difficult to do because it requires a lot of people to travel around the country. Potentially with the sleeve players in remote areas could be bowling better than players in Lahore and the PCB would be able to see online that there is a potential cricketer out there to bring in and test out."
The sleeve not just helps detect an illegal bowling action but bowling technique. Tell me about the potential of the sleeve as a training tool to improve technique?
AA: "We're doing a lot of work in terms of bowling analytics.
"We can tell you about your release angles, your starting off bowling action and the angle throughout the action. If you look at the legality issue with the bowling action it's not just about the arm angle, that's a common misconception in cricket and something we've faced is that a lot of coaches don't understand the rule properly. What they think is if someone is bending their arm at greater than 15 degrees is an illegal action, that is actually not the case.
"If you dig down into the ICC's rules is says that your arm extension cannot be greater than 15 degrees and what that means is that the ICC defines is that once you're in your bowling stride and your upper arm aligns with the ground that's known as the start of your bowling action. Once you've released the ball, that is the release point or the ending of your bowling action. This is the window in which you would want to monitor that your arm extension hasn't exceeded greater than 15 degrees. Let's say at the start of my bowling action my arm is bent at 40 degrees and when I release the ball my arm is still bent at 40 degrees so that would mean my action is completely legal because I've made no extension in the arm, it's remained at 40 degrees throughout."
The product has been tested and iterated for over four years, tell me about the difficulty of getting accurate data based on the positioning of the sensors on the sleeve?
AA: "We've faced challenges because product design is a key part of the sleeve because that contributes to the sensors maintaining their position. A slight difference in the sensor positions doesn't make a big difference. Of course when the sleeve slipped down a bowler's arm that was a big problem and that would mess up the sensor readings. We were able to figure it out with our product design and working with different vendors."
What's next in terms of company growth and developing the product. What's next on the horizon for CricFlex?
AA: "We got the opportunity to meet with Shoaib Akhtar who is of course was one of the fastest bowler in the world – if not the fastest ever! He got to see the product himself because if you recall he had legality issues with his arm and bowling action. Interestingly the thing with his arm is that – mine or your arm if we straightened it would be zero degrees, whereas Shoaib's arm could go backwards, so negative degrees, which is essentially a hyperextension."
He had a catapult like whipping action but I couldn't remember him being pulled up for an illegal action.
AA: "There was some controversy around it because they saw that he had a medical defect in his arm which allowed his arm to go backwards and that's allowed by the ICC. With Muttiah Muralitharan he had the opposite problem he had an angle in his arm and he couldn't straighten it, it was already bent at a certain degree and when he bowled it gave the illusion that he was chucking or throwing the ball. Essentially he had a mechanical defect.
"In terms of growth of the company. We're looking to raise funds to help fulfil the pre-orders that we've already got. We have orders from 13 different cricket playing nations and some county clubs in England.
"The next phase is we're working on a complete platform for clubs that if you have say 50 bowlers in your club, and you're a coach, with that platform you can see each bowler's performance – improvement, effort, force – and we can deliver bowling analytics for each bowler within a club."

Looking out for cryptocurrency jobs?
Cryptocurrency and blockchain skills are in huge demand in 2018, in initial coin offerings and established cryptocurrencies — or for blockchain applications in non-crypto enterprises. Just ten years after the advent of Bitcoin, opportunities abound in the "crypto space" for those with technical and non-technical skills.
General skills required to benefit from the growth and adoption of cryptocurrency transfer well from other industries and sectors. What's most needed in this fast-growing field are professionals who are both well-versed in cryptocurrency technology and enthusiastic about its potential.
Job seekers can select from these five high-potential cryptocurrency opportunities in 2018 based on individual interests and abilities.
Beyond strong writing skills, successful candidates need to be well-versed in the related technology, regulation environment, and economic opportunity. Most important is the ability to take complex technical issues and explain them simply to non-technical audiences in engaging ways.
Understand blockchain technologies, cryptography, smart contract scripting, and crypto-economics.
Identify and track emerging technologies and unconventional trends.
Aggregate information from a variety of sources (old and new).
Draw informed conclusions from incomplete information.
Investment analysts bridge the informational gap between technical and investment teams, informing each in the terms it understands. The degree of passion about the technology and its future impact distinguishes one candidate from another.
Crypto enthusiasts, reporters, and even bloggers can find success in this career direction if they have the requisite passion to learn designated trading and marketing systems. An entrepreneurial spirit and drive to win regardless of current market conditions are keys to success on the personal level.
Crypto-enterprises seek experienced front-end developers for creating cryptocurrency, wallet, and exchange services. Web developers are being hired to scale up web-based cryptocurrency charting and trading platforms — or to develop related informational hubs.
Developing efficient and complex user interfaces (UI/UX).
Maintaining a well-organized codebase of components.
Structuring web pages that optimize for load time.
A technically-adept person with the ability to write engaging web content that sells can earn a spot in the crypto-space until specific familiarity and knowledge develop.
Programming facility with languages such as Java, Python, C/C++, etc.
Artificial intelligence and machine learning experience.
Practice using the IBM Blockchain Platform or Amazon Web Services Blockchain Partners Portal is considered a plus. Because crypto developers often enter on the ground floor of rapidly-growing and transforming operations, the required developer programming language "stack" tends to be in constant flux.
While some crypto-related enterprises demand years of specific experience, others are comfortable hiring "self-made hackers" with limited blockchain exposure.
Higher earnings — cryptocurrency startup salaries generally exceed industry averages by 10-20%.
Remote flexibility — working in cryptocurrency enhances the chance of working remotely.
Liquidity — cryptocurrency given to employees as equity in crypto-startups are essentially liquid upon payment (restrictions apply).
No matter the level of crypto-related skills — whether non-technical or technical — professional success can be found in the rapidly-growing cryptocurrency field. What matters most is a willingness to learn and adapt to ongoing change and a passion for a cryptocurrency future.

Q: How to update ng-model inside ng-repeat How do you update ng-model from view in this case?
I am having a problem updating my ng-model. Sorry if this with errors or I am doing something wrong! I am pretty new to web development!
My HTML code looks something like this:

{{book.name}}

{{book.authors}}

{{book.price}}

{{book.qboy}}

            <input ng-model="thisoneshould" type="number" min="0" required>
            <input type="submit" ng-click="changeQuant(book.id)" value="Update quantity">

<button ng-click="checkout()">Checkout</button>

And my code in the controller looks something like this:
    $scope.thisoneshould = 0;
    //other variables that are defined...

    $scope.changeQuant = function(x){
        $scope.updateCart(x);
    }
    $scope.updateCart = function(x){
        $scope.showLoginErrorMsg = false;
        $scope.needToLogin = false;
        $scope.showLoginErrorMsg = false;
        $scope.ifhomepage = false;
        $scope.ifSuccessful = false;
        $scope.ifbookpage = false;
        $scope.ifcheckpage = false;
        $scope.ifShowQuantity = false;
        $scope.additionSuccess = false;
        $scope.ifLoadCart = true;
        console.log(x);
        console.log($scope.thisoneshould);
        //$scope.cartbooks = [];
        if ($scope.thisoneshould!=0)
        {
            console.log($scope.thisoneshould);
            $http.put('updatecart',{'bookId': x, 'quantity': $scope.thisoneshould}).then(function(response){
                $scope.itemsInCart = response.data;
           });
        }
        else {
            $http.delete('deletefromcart/'+x).then(function(response){
                $scope.itemsInCart = response.data;
            });
        }
    }

Can someone tell me what seems to be the problem with my code, why it is wrong and how do I fix it?

A: You need to notify the controller whenever the value is changed. Some sort of event to update the value in controller.
Angularjs is anyways offers the feature of two way data binding. your variable should have the updated value. In the below example i am using ng-change with ng-model
DEMO

// Code goes here

var app =angular.module('testApp',[])
app.controller('testCtrl',function($scope){
   $scope.updated = 0;
   $scope.print = function(test){
     console.log(test);
   }
});
<!DOCTYPE html>

    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">

     <input ng-model="thisoneshould" ng-change="print(thisoneshould)" type="number" min="0" required>

Editorial: A century of remembrance
Home » Opinion
Kevin MacLean
A century ago, when the red poppy was chosen as a gesture to commemorate the sacrifices of those who went to war, could the people of that era ever have imagined how enduring and endearing a symbol it would turn out to be?
Much has changed in the 100 years since the poppy became synonymous with what we now call Remembrance Day.
But the sheer simplicity and power of the little plastic flowers we wear near our hearts has carried on. Yes, they fall off, we lose them, then buy another and another, but surely that is a small sacrifice given the immensity of the sacrifice the poppy represents.
We have mused before about how every year, every community, every school in small towns and big cities across the country, stops to remember those who fought to ensure the freedoms that we take for granted today.
It is a custom we must ensure endures and that future generations embrace it.
This year, we are that much closer to saying final farewells to more veterans of the Second World War. Veterans Affairs Canada said a year ago that more than 30,000 of the estimated 1 million who went to war were still with us – and their average age was mid-90s.
But all those who survived the Great War, 1914-18, are long gone. John Babcock, the country's last known soldier from that era, died in 2010 at age 109.
Unfortunately, new veterans, from Afghanistan and other conflicts, are taking their place. War may indeed be hell, but ours is not a world without conflict.
We owe it to all of these veterans – new, old and very old – to never forget the sacrifices made.
That is why in this edition of The Lake Report, we dedicated several pages to stories and pictures of remembrance: From the heroics of Maj. Benjamin Geary, who is buried here in Niagara-on-the-Lake, and is one of the rare recipients of the vaunted Victoria Cross, to the war tale of Gino Ascenzo, who grew up in Italy and was dragooned to fight for Mussolini against the Allies, to Ross Robinson's forward-looking column about the need for a Canadian flag at Queen's Royal Park.
These are ways to remember and reasons to never forget.

What if you don't get a job? We've all heard horror stories of people driving cabs, working at Starbuck's, or hanging around campus doing odd jobs; some medicate with dangerous drugs, or, in the worst cases, attempt suicide. No one keeps track of these lost souls; the information is all anecdotal. We all want to live in hope yet can't shake the creeping fear that failure may be contagious. Fortunately, there are plenty of hopeful stories out there, and we will lift up a few in the next series of posts.
When I arrived in my first (and only) tenure track job, I probed my colleagues delicately for their tenure history, not to betray too green an interest in my own fate. Yes, they had used temporary faculty with some regularity, and no, not everyone had gained tenure, unfortunately. They sounded reassuringly apologetic but also a bit vague. There had been unusual circumstances, sometimes of a personal nature, or the fit wasn't right, or it turned out to be a bad hire, or the person's career had taken a new direction, that sort of thing. Mostly, they did not know what had become of their former colleagues, although in one case the person had gone to work for Target and was now making pots of money; he had come down for a visit driving a big fancy car and was apparently putting his intellect and communication skills to good use, with few regrets about escaping from freshman comp and Intro to British lit. This story was conveyed in hushed tones that suggested an odd mix of pity and envy. It gave me a whiff of hope for other possibilities should things not work out as planned.
Eight years later, amid the unplanned wreckage, I met David Cave. He had done graduate work at Chicago and Indiana before taking a PhD in religion from a seminary down in Kentucky. Newly-minted and with his dissertation published by Oxford he looked to be in excellent shape for a tenure-track job. He and his wife, an oncology nurse, had moved to Cincinnati to be near her family; he had obtained a temporary assistant professorship that had recently ended, and he was looking around. Despite great credentials and active scholarship, he could find nothing in the way of a regular job. He had spent several years adjuncting, networking with all the local colleges, and even doing regular commentaries for NPR. He was determined to maintain an intellectual life and keep up his scholarship.
But economics began to catch up with him. Their son was growing apace and the family needed money. He finally took a development internship at one of the big hospitals; he learned the ropes and found that he liked the work of building relationships and helping people find meaning and purpose in supporting a charitable mission. When the internship ended, he became development director for a very small Catholic college, and after five years there he moved over to the University of Cincinnati Foundation, where he worked raising money for the humanities. And five years after that, he moved to the University of Michigan.
During all this time, Dave continued to read, think, teach, and publish. He gave talks, wrote radio commentaries, kept a journal of ideas, and stayed in touch with colleagues in his field. He also organized book groups and found other informal means to pursue the intellectual life. He liked working with faculty and was received as a colleague because of his scholarship and devotion to teaching and education. Now, at Michigan, he's actively involved with the humanities, engaging individual graduates and friends of the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts to support the priorities and ventures of departments, programs, and the college as a whole. He and his wife live in wonderful Ann Arbor, where they host a popular literary salon. His development work takes him to places like Washington, Atlanta, and Miami where he cultivates visions and ideas with smart, well-placed alumni. And he continues to read and publish actively in his field.
Dave inspired me with his resourcefulness and devotion to a felt calling. Initially, he was disappointed not to land a regular teaching job, but he found ways to stay alive intellectually and other venues in which to pursue both teaching and scholarship. He found another way to make a living that proved surprisingly rewarding, not only for its intrinsic satisfactions and good income, but also for keeping him connected to the university. I was reminded how many poets, musicians, and artists have had other day jobs: think of Wallace Stevens or Charles Ives, both of whom sold insurance, James Joyce, who worked in a bank, or William Carlos Williams tending his patients. The truth is that most of us have more than one passion, and there is always more than one way to use our skills. A job can't and shouldn't provide everything. Like Thoreau, we'd do better with a broad margin to our life, to keep a light hand on the tiller and take the widest possible view of our horizons.
In 2003 the adjunct faculty at Keene State College, where I work, reached a tentative agreement on their first contract that was subsequently approved by the college's Board of Trustees and ratified by the union membership. The first contract, the result of many years of work, court cases and appeals in front of the labor relations board, offered an 18.8 percent retroactive salary increase. The new contract also established a process for arbitration of contract disputes, just cause for dismissal, appeal rights for non-reappointment or non-renewal of contracts, as well as other benefits and protections. Moreover, the organizing effort had the support of the full-time faculty union at Keene State College.
In my years as chair of one of the largest department at Keene State College I spent a good deal of time fretting over the challenges of working in a system that depends so heavily on contingent labor. Surely many of the privileges I enjoy as a tenured faculty member are entwined with the willingness of the administration to retain adjunct faculty at wages that are far below the minimum recommended salary by professional organizations. And I've worked closely to create new opportunities to collaborate with adjunct colleagues while recognizing that collaborations around courses and curriculum too often make available opportunities that only magnify the lack of compensation for such work. Too, a few years ago, I was a member and chair of the Modern Language Associations' Committee on Academic Freedom and Professional Rights and Responsibilities (CAFPRR) when we began setting recommended minimum salary for adjunct faculty members on an annual basis. More recently I've been working with adjunct faculty colleagues in a new first-year writing program and in an American Studies program that draws on the expertise and experience of adjunct faculty.
And so I took special notice of a letter to the editor of the Chronicle of Higher Education by Philip E. Lewis, Vice President of the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. Lewis' missive, "Curing What Ails Liberal Education," is a rejoinder to Andrew Delbanco's response to the so-called crisis in the humanities, "A New Day for Intellectuals" (The Chronicle Review 13 February). In addition to calling into question Delbanco's characterization of scholarship in the humanities-the "theory-driven decline thesis"-Lewis points to the value of seeking collaboration with colleagues across schools and divisions rather than merely making the standard humanistic argument that students need more humanities.
It would be helpful to think through more carefully how members of a profession like ours justify our work, especially today, when many of the high-minded defenses of the humanities no longer ring true in an academic system that is increasingly dependent upon radical inequities. How do intellectuals working in the humanities justify to the public-and to those people who represent the public, like boards of trustees or senior academic administrators-why we deserve the rights of control over our intellectual work different from the control that society and employers exercise over other occupations?
A few years ago, when John and I began our conversations, we found in one another the words for a common vision: a life practice for academic people guided by the virtues of centeredness, wholeness, compassion, forgiveness, generosity, imagination and collaboration.
Our thinking led immediately to the organizing fiction of academia-the career path that holds out the promise of a fulfilling life. This fiction begins with graduate school and proceeds through temporary and tenure-track jobs to the watershed of the tenure review, tenure, promotion, and retirement with honors. Careers do indeed unfold along this path. (My dossier for promotion to full professor is currently under review.) Others do not. (You can read John's narrative of facing a fork in his own road in his essay "Meeting the Tree of Life.") We have both been in and out of the academic world long enough to recognize the problems with this organizing fiction. Some of our colleagues and close friends have worked toward satisfying lives in academia; other colleagues and friends have struggled to stay alive in the academy–whether in the security of a tenured tenure-stream position or in the sometimes tenuous position of the adjunct. And for decades we have worked with lecturers, instructors, adjuncts, part-timers, and contingent faculty in our roles as faculty mentors and friends. If anything, we have learned that there are many pathways, watersheds, and destinations in this profession.
One of the primary motivations in our conversations has been to better understand the organizing fiction of academic life. We see the fiction of graduate school leading to a tenure-track position as potentially destructive precisely because it naturalizes professional success by aligning with the phases of a life path. However our experiences have led us to see our profession as more like a braided stream: people move back & forth between institutions, whether teaching full-or part-time; take up administrative positions or jobs outside of academics in business, journalism, writing, or publishing; government or non-profit work in museums or foundations, or go in to Independent work such as consulting.
The organizing fiction of an academic career also obscures the real situation. According to the 2006 AAUP Contingent Faculty Index, non-tenure-track positions now make up sixty-eight percent of all faculty at degree-granting institutions in the United States. Too many talented people with PhDs find themselves on the job market year after year; others take positions at institutions simply because they need a job; others sign on as contingent faculty and hold out the hope that their ship will come in; still others resign themselves to doing work they love in situations they loathe.
I am grateful to Dave W. for responding to our outline of phases in an academic career. (His comment appears on the "Prospectus" page.) For his words offers me an occasion to elaborate a bit more about where John and I are starting from. (Something I've been wanting to do but have been too busy teaching.) Dave's framing our point of view may also be useful as we launch this conversation. He says that assuming "a traditional path from grad student to tenured bliss reveals a lack of appreciation of the reality on the ground." Indeed. But we are, in fact, deeply interested in that ground-the reality from which we are always starting from. We are interested in mapping the reality of academic lives in more subtle and meaningful ways. We are interested in the systemic contradictions in the expression of the privileged professor who says, "But we are scholars, not teachers." We are interested in why (and how) humane people continue to labor in less than humane situations. And yes, we are interested in the ongoing and difficult work of constructing not comfortable but rather more virtuous and satisfying lives.

Free online jigsaw puzzle for adults and kids of beautiful orchids. The orchids are shades of purple.
Beautiful colors. Took me quite a while. I had knee surgery Sep. 19th. Things are going very well. My husband is gone for the week to Huston to help with flood victims. He is working with 8 Days of Hope. Although I could have used him home to help me. I insisted he go as he loves to help. He went with a team from our church that is sending groups out every week. They will take a two week break then start heading to Florida to help there. My husband has been on 23 mission trips, it is his heart to serve. Our oldest son lives next door and with friends coming and a sister I was well cared for. He comes home Saturday very late. So excited to here the stories and see what God is doing in Huston.
How is your knee doing now that time has passed? Did you hear a lot of stories about your husband's trips? I hope this finds you well and happy.
Rahrah1820, my knee is doing great. Still not real fast with going down stair, but fast coming up so progress for sure. Yes I did hear lots of stories about my husbands trip to Texas with 8 days of hope. Oct 13th they are planing another trip to rebuild. He hopes to go on that one as well. They worked on 700 homes and a few churches and schools. He loves to go. I go with him when I am able. But this trip they are asking for skilled workers. I can't get on a latter anymore although I love to paint and I am good at it. Will have to see what I would be able to do to earn my keep if I go. LOL. I know they appreciate help in the kitchen to prepare the meals as they feed you while you are there. But usually when he goes on missions I use the time to visit all my sisters as I have 5 of them to catch up. And do special things with friends. I still don't like the fact I can't get down on the knee as yet and they say might not. So have to realize I am getting older and will have to come to terms to ask for help, like my corners doing my floors and the tops of wood work to dust and my ceiling fans etc. I just have to adjust to let people help me. I know many will relate to this I am sure. Don't want to be an old hard head! LOL. Thanks for asking!
Wow! you had a big family! We had a brother, he passed 3 years ago. I am the oldest of the pack and then my brother. We were very close. He lived the closest to me and we visited every week and had coffee. He was my coffee pal. I miss him a lot. I am 70 this year and my baby sister is 59 so we are all getting up there. It is hard when siblings have to say good. And yes I am leading with the other leg and yes that works out pretty good. I think having a bionic would be loads of fun. You could tell them kids Hey I see you way over there. LOL. I will be saying good-by to two great grand kids today as they are returning back to Florida. It was fun spending some time with them they are 4 and 2 a girl and boy. The other 3 I get to see most every day as my son who lives next door babysits them for his daughter. We are all pretty close and I love that, most of the time. I am in Michigan, where are you? Nice chatting with ya and happy puzzling! I sure do love it next to knitting.
I love puzzling, too, and the conversations as well. I'm in Tucson, AZ. We've been having quite the heat wave. It hit 121 in Phoenix the other day. I lived there on the day it hit 122, many years ago. UGH! I'll be 66 in a week, and my oldest sister will be 71 two weeks after that. My other brother is around 76 or so. Then we have one more brother who's 73, but we don't talk with him, he's a real scoundre. So, it's basically the three of us left. My brother & sister live in Prescott (100 miles north of Phx) with their spouses. This next month will be bringing a lot of change as I'm moving in with my daughter's family. They've asked me to, so they can help me out with a few things. It's wonderful to be loved, isn't it? I know what you mean about missing your brother. My youngest (15 months younger) brother passed away in January. We were best buds and I was afraid for a bit that I wouldn't be able to carry on without him. Another brother passed away 15 months before that, so our family is dwindling down rapidly. That could have something to do with my kids wanting me closer to them, maybe they're trying to keep me longer! lol Where are you located?
I am located in Casnovia, MI. A supper small town. Lived here 50 years of our married 52 years. We are very blessed to live on a lake and have a nice home. My oldest son lives right next door to us and my middle son right in back of us. We live on a nice two track about 1/2 mile long. So private drive. We have a nice swim area and lake stuff to play with as pontoon boat, paddle boat and kyacks. We keep a nice sandy beach area so kids can have endless hours of fun. We are out in the country as well surrounded by mainly apple orchards. I didn't think I told you my brother and I weren't even a year apart. The same age for a little bite. A lot of people always asked if we were twins. I have been working a lot in the yard, I love to have a nice yard, it is landscaped and have lots of flowers but lots, lots of work. I know I will have to ask for help next year. So glad we go to a good church that has lots of young people and I can go talk with the youth pastor and let him pick out a teen that would like to spend some time with me and put some jiggle in their pockets. LOL. Moving in with family is a wonderful thing most of the time. Make sure you have a space that is just yours to disappear to some times. We joke with our sons (I have 3 boys and no daughters) about who will take care of us. I don't think we will have to move into their place cause our homes are just steps away very close. In fact our sidewalk connects with their walk way. And my son is very talented with camera's and speakers and such they will just watch us from there to here. We go south for the winters we stay in Orange Beach Alabama. Our oldest son goes as well as he works from any where in the world. So nice to have some family away from home. We get our own places though. Well that is it for now. We had a nice rain today and it has cooled down. When we were first married we lived in Tucson, AZ on 400 stone street. A little adobe apartment. Was only there a year. But we loved it.
I know the area of Tucson in which you lived. You'd be surprised at how the once small town has grown. I've only been here 18 years and have seen a lot of change. Your home and property sound lovely. It's wonderful to have family near, isn't it? I want to spend my summers with you! lol It was 121 degrees in Phoenix last week, so you know Tucson wasn't much lower.
Yes, I have my own room I can retreat to anytime. They've really gone all out to set it up for me. I will respect their privacy as well. They know I've lived alone for a long time, so I think we're pretty much on the same page there.
Looks like the Cooktown orchid which is the floral emblem of Queensland the state in which I live.
Blake - one of my favorite poets.
Beautiful. Last puzzle until after Oct. 19th. Vacation time in Ct.


Framework Group and Mingara Leisure Group have worked in partnership for many years. Mingara has achieved great outcomes in creating and sustaining a safe workplace by leveraging the strengths of Framework Group in the provision of pre employment assessments as part of our recruitment process, the conduct of risk assessments and the development of safe operating procedures across the club, as well as the ongoing delivery of employee-focused, high touch injury management and rehabilitation coordinator services. James Ellis and his team of qualified and experienced practitioners build effective working partnerships with all stakeholders, and act as a true extension of the Mingara HR and WHS teams. Their organisational awareness and understanding of our workforce and workplace means they are able to add value across all services they deliver. Their empathetic and caring approach always shines through, and as a result of their exceptional communication skills and high quality monitoring and reporting practices, we have a truly effective operational partnership that is acknowledged in Mingara by employees and leaders alike.
The Framework Partnership Program is a culmination of many years of learning in workplace injury rehabilitation. We have come to understand that the existing system creates secondary disability and undermines relationships within workplaces. We have developed an alternative that is anchored to organisational learning.
The Partnership Program addresses the key principles of injury management: early intervention and respectful relationships between workers, employer and insurer. Framework Group balance the complexities of facilitating these relationships and ensuring that everyone works well together in a streamlined, proactive approach that supports organisational learning. The partnership in learning approach provides a portal through which an organisation can enhance their organisational culture. We can't promise an overnight transition but rather, an iterative approach that develops, enhances and maintains effective working relationships over the medium to longer term.
Fortunately, good outcomes for injured workers coincide with significantly reduced costs to the employer and insurer. In the transition period of 12-24 months it is common for us to see claims costs and premiums reduce significantly.
Framework Group provides support directly to injured workers and their supervisors who are empowered to better understand and manage injuries.
Supervisors often feel uncomfortable managing injured staff so Framework Group embraces a supporting role. We also support the management team by providing claims management advice at policy level and on a claim by claim basis. This support extends to establishing and maintaining a respectful working relationship with the Workers Compensation agent/insurer and with key service providers.
The Framework Partnership Program is proving that an energetic, well-informed and respectful approach to injury management improves organisational culture and helps employees and supervisors reclaim some control, and also saves a lot of time and a lot of money.
To be honest however, the transition isn't always easy and doesn't occur overnight. It involves commitment from your management team, relationship building with your insurer, education and support of your supervisors and team leaders and ongoing conversations throughout your organisation.
It isn't easy but it is worthwhile and rewarding.

LPD release new information about Knoll Avenue shooting
Posted: Mon 9:59 PM, Dec 02, 2019 |
Updated: Tue 5:34 AM, Dec 03, 2019
LAREDO, TX (KGNS) - The Laredo Police Department has released new information about the shooting on Knoll Avenue, which says one of the persons shot was actually hit by friendly fire.
File photo: Knoll Avenue
The press release sheds more light on just what happened the morning of November 26th.
In the statement, police say Cesar Terrazas was in his car parked across the street from his ex-girlfriend's house.
That's when he began shooting at officers who had arrived at the scene, one of those shots hitting Officer Anthony Whitehawk in the right leg.
Terrazas is said to have continued shooting as he made his way into the home and into the bedroom where the three victims were hiding.
The three victims managed to overpower Terraza, taking his rifle away, but not before hitting the 52-year-old woman twice in the upper body.
This is where things took a turn. Police accounts say after several minutes, the victim's brother walked out of the home with the assault rifle in his hands and charged LPD officers.
One officer then fired on the man, who happened to be the victim's brother who had just helped disarm Terrazas.
The woman who was shot twice has since been released from the hospital while the 21-year-old brother of the victim is still in the hospital for his wound. The ex-girlfriend was not hurt in the incident.
Per police procedure, all three police officers are on administrative reassignment pending an internal police investigation.
The officers are Officer Anthony white hawk Cabello, Eduardo Benavides, and David Hinojosa.
Police say a preliminary investigation shows police fired a total of 14 times while Terrazas is said to have fired 80 rounds in the shooting.
Terrazas is also now facing another charge of making terroristic threats of family violence.

Q: Javascript array contain value

<input type="checkbox" />

<input type="checkbox" />

<input type="checkbox" />

<input type="checkbox" />

On page load, I return a JSON array:
{
    "src":["lml7x8nJzI.jpg","TaR7dALIPJ.jpg","TDE2pWgIfa.jpg","tUtuDx1BEf.jpg"],
    "checked":["lml7x8nJzI.jpg","TaR7dALIPJ.jpg","tUtuDx1BEf.jpg"]
}

*

*The src contains all the source names of image and checked is the checked type of check boxes.

*The checked defines which image is checked (every image has a check box).

I need the final HTML like this:

<input type="checkbox" />

<input type="checkbox" checked />              //this is a checked one

<input type="checkbox" checked/>                 //this is a checked one

<input type="checkbox" />                    //this is not

<input type="checkbox" checked />  //this is a checked one

I can use array contains in JavaScript, or is there a better way?
My attempt:
var initial = "
";
var middle = "";
var end = "
";
var i;

for (i = 0; i < data.src.length; i++)
{
    if (data.checked.contains(data.src[i]))   // How can I do this?

A: You can use indexOf method of Array
var a = ['a', 'b', 'c'];
if (a.indexOf('a') > -1 ) {
    //element is in array
} else {
    //element is not in array
}

Note that indexOf method is absent in IE6, but there is an implementation available by Mozilla  on the same page.

A: A better approach would be to replace
{"src":["lml7x8nJzI.jpg","TaR7dALIPJ.jpg","TDE2pWgIfa.jpg","tUtuDx1BEf.jpg"],
 "checked":["lml7x8nJzI.jpg","TaR7dALIPJ.jpg","tUtuDx1BEf.jpg"]}

with
{"src":[
    {"src": "lml7x8nJzI.jpg", "checked": true},
    {"src": "TaR7dALIPJ.jpg", "checked": true},
    {"src": "TDE2pWgIfa.jpg", "checked": false},
    {"src": "tUtuDx1BEf.jpg", "checked": true}]
}

for instance.
Then you could just write
for(i=0;i<data.src.length;i++) {
    var elem = data.src[i];
    var checked = "";
    if (elem.checked)
        checked = "checked";
    middle = middle +
        "
<img src=" +
        "http://localhost/project/user/" +
        "<?php echo $this->session->userdata('username');?>" +
        "/pages/" +
        "<?php echo $this->uri->segment(3);?>" +
        "/images/gallery/" +
        elem.src +
        " />" +
        "
<input type='checkbox' value=" +
        elem.src +
        " " +
        checked +
        "/>
";
    }
}

The only thing different between the two strings you make is the attribute checked (which should really be checked="checked" if you want to follow standards), so I'd prefer setting a variable checked to either an empty string or "checked" depending on whether the checkbox is checked or not.

A: Here's my complete solution using indexOf
$(function(){
  var url = 'http://localhost/project/user/<?php echo $this->session->userdata('username'); ?>/pages/<?php echo $this->uri->segment(3); ?>/images/gallery/'
    , complete = '
'

  data.src.forEach(function(src){
    complete += '
<input type="checkbox" value="' + src + '"'
    if(data.checked.indexOf(src) > -1){
      complete += ' checked'
    }
    complete += '>
'
  })

  $("#project_gallary_layout").html(complete);
})
