Q: Generate JPA2 Entities from Existing Database using Maven Generate JPA 2 Entities from existing Database
I want to do same but using maven build.
Please suggest the plugin. As i googled it, i found the metamodel generation of JPA using JPA annotation entities.Didn't find anything related to this question.

A: SInce you are using hibernate the default option would be hibernate3-maven-plugin, more specifically the hibernate3:hbm2java goal configured with <ejb3>true</ejb3>. It will generate annotated pojos (most annotations are from the standard javax.persistence package, but it might also include custom org.hibernate.annotations) .
Check out John Citizen's answer at JBoss Community for sample configuration.

A: You could use the hibernate-tools-maven-plugin. In order to use it you can use the following configuration:
  <properties>
    <project.build.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.build.sourceEncoding>
    <project.reporting.outputEncoding>UTF-8</project.reporting.outputEncoding>

Run mvn generate-resources and you will find generated JPA Entities and a Schema DDL of the test.mv.db H2-Database (root folder from the project).
The connection configuration is in hibernate.cfg.xml file located in src/main/hibernate. In our case has the following content:
<?xml version = "1.0" encoding = "utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration SYSTEM
  "http://www.hibernate.org/dtd/hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd">
<hibernate-configuration>

    <property name="hibernate.connection.pool_size">1</property>
    <property name="hibernate.show_sql">true</property>
  </session-factory>
</hibernate-configuration>

We use the hibernate.reveng.xml file to customize the mapping type configuration, for example in order to use the java.time types we can use:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-reverse-engineering SYSTEM
  "http://hibernate.org/dtd/hibernate-reverse-engineering-3.0.dtd" >

    <sql-type jdbc-type="TIMESTAMP" hibernate-type="java.time.LocalDateTime"/>
  </type-mapping>

</hibernate-reverse-engineering>

The complete project is available over on Github.

A: The official one to achieve this is hibernate-tools-maven-plugin. Here is a blog with a detailed explanation on how to integrate the plugin.

A: You should try MinuteProject:(it generates maven projects)
http://minuteproject.wikispaces.com/
http://javacodesamples.wordpress.com/2011/02/04/jpa2-reverse-engineering-tool/

A: *

*If you want to save your time, and generate without learn too much then follow this github code and generate in 3 small steps

*just add plugin in your maven project,

*update db credentials in entityGenConfig.yml file

*and execute "mvn jpa-entity-generator:generateAll"

*That's it, it will generate entity classes in given package, you need to use text replace for remove extra things

Do you have package "dovecot-pgsql" installed? And maybe you forgot to update it?
Which yum/apt repo do you use for Dovecot-2.2.35?
I tried just replacing the 'password_query =' line.
Did you copy the full line?
You see the error in red color?
"user_query =" is a parameter, "password_query =" is another parameter.
This was obsoleted, checked dependencies and 'amavisd-new-postfix' uses it.
Apparently this was fixed but it seems roundcube still asks for it.
We didn't test iRedMail-0.9.8 on Ubuntu 18.04 BETA yet. Will try soon.
How many max people i can add into maillist ?
I thought I'd give a brand new install a go on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS before upgrading from 0.9.7 on our production server. I can't see any trace of Sogo?
I note the upgrade instructions, but cannot see it in the new install.
Is there something I'm missing, or should i install 0.9.7 then follow the upgrade instructions?
Oh just upgraded and noticed, that apache support has been removed? It looks like it is working fine. Where is the hint in the upgrade doc: https://docs.iredmail.org/upgrade.iredm … 0.9.8.html ? Am I still fine with apache?
I also have some questions: I did all the steps, except the ldap things and the SoGo.
- OpenLDAP: I dont use OpenLDAP and it seems that I it is not installed on the iredmailserver.
- SOGO: I dont have a /etc/sogo .. How can I ensure, that everything is fine with my install? Its not a nessecary part of iredmail right?
I think 18.04 is going to be SOGo 3 only for the time being. The wonder of being LTS. Can you package up the install using SOGo 3?
It looks to me now like we could be waiting a while. Everything I can see suggests that 18.04 LTS will get SOGo 3.2.10-1build1 rather than SOGo 4.
In order to get v4 on 18.04 is the best solution to install 16.04, iredmail (with SOGo v3), then update to 18.04 and SOGo v4?
I'd rather have an install package directly into 18.04, as everything I see suggests that a fresh install of long term support is better than an upgrade from the previous LTS version - although I have to admit I don't know how much truth there is in those claims.
I suggest wait for some more days if you want Ubuntu 18.04 + SOGo v4, and push SOGo team to package it.
What is the postfix version used by Iredmail 0.9.8?
iRedMail installs Postfix from Linux/BSD vendor package repository.
I've did a fresh install 3 days back.
Looks like there is a problem with the latest release.
1- IMAP accounts works for some accounts and not working for other accounts (very strange problem and I still can't solve it, nothing significant in the logs).
2- Active Sync working only on mobiles and doesn't work from outlook 2016 for windows or MAC. (I was able to make it work by adding autodiscover A records in my public and private DNS servers), now it is working fine.
Are we any closer to a packaged V4 SOGo iRedmail install - or is manual install the way to go?


When I wear sleeveless tops, there isn't a day when I'm not asked about my lymphedema garments.
These are a full-length sleeve and a fingerless glove on my left arm.
Um, the Asheville Orthopedic Appliance Co.
I wear the garments, not as a fashion statement, not to bowl, but to control the non-stop pain and swelling in my left arm and hand, known as lymphedema.
Over the past three years of wearing the garments, I now use the questions as a teaching moment.
Lymphedema is a chronic disease that results in a backup of lymph fluid (which carries away the waste from the blood stream). It occurs when the lymphatic system is damaged, said Emily Jones, an occupational therapist at CarePartners.
In my case, the damage was caused by breast cancer surgery and the removal of lymph nodes from under my arm.
There is no cure for lymphedema. Once you have it, you have it forever.
An estimated 3 million-5 million people Americans suffer from lymphedema. Two out of five breast cancer patients will develop lymphedema within five years of surgery.
With lymphedema, I cannot type. I wouldn't be able to write this story, which is my livelihood.
But there is treatment. The two most effective are manual lymphatic drainage, performed by a physical therapist specializing in lymphedema, and compression garments.
The garments require a doctor's prescription and are custom made. They are about $328 for one sleeve and one glove. I need two at a time, $656 – one to wear while the other is being washed. (They are tight to the skin, get sweaty and dirty and need to be changed daily, kind of like underwear).
I need new pairs twice a year because they stretch out, get damaged and then are no longer effective. That's about $1,312 a year. It is cost prohibitive.
My former health insurance paid for them. My new insurance company – Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas – does not cover compression garments.
Well, North Carolina has its own rules. Actually, it has a law. Passed by the General Assembly in 2009, HB 535 states that every health benefit plan in the state must provide coverage for the diagnosis, evaluation, and treatment of lymphedema, including benefits for equipment, supplies, complex decongestive therapy, and gradient compression garments.
North Carolina and Virginia and the only two states in the country with such laws. Bravo.
I told the BCBS rep about that and that the N.C. law should cover me. She said it did not, since the company is based in Texas.
Heather Ferguson thought so. A mom of two from Charlotte, one of her sons was born with primary lymphedema in both legs. He was prescribed his first compression garment at age 7 months. Ferguson's insurance denied it.
Not a woman to be messed with, Ferguson reached out to her state representative, Tricia Cotham, D-Mecklenburg. Cotham helped Ferguson with the appeal, which only gave her one year of payment. Now 10, he needs to wear the knee-high socks every day. He will need them for life.
Ferguson continued to work with state representatives until the lymphedema law passed. She formed the Lymphedema Advocacy Group.
Now she has taken her cause to Congress.
Introduced in 2010, the Lymphedema Treatment Act would amend a section of the Social Security act to provide for Medicare coverage for lymphedema compression items. That would extend to all states, even Texas.
The bill has 249 House co-sponsors, including Rep. Mark Meadows, R-Jackson, and 28 senators, including Thom Tillis. Sen. Richard Burr has not signed on.
Yes. Why won't my health insurance pay for my lymphedema sleeves?

Dorothy Jennifer Beatrice Tyler (geboren als Dorothy Odam; * 14. März 1920 in Stockwell; † 25. September 2014 in der Grafschaft Suffolk) war eine britische Leichtathletin, die vor und nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg im Hochsprung Medaillen bei großen Meisterschaften gewann. Neben zwei Silbermedaillen bei Olympischen Spielen siegte sie zweimal bei den Commonwealth Games und erhielt je eine Silbermedaille bei Europameisterschaften und Commonwealth Games.

Karriere

Im April 1936 stellte Dorothy Odam den Weltrekord von 1,65 Meter ein, diese Leistung wurde aber nicht offiziell als Weltrekord anerkannt. Bei den Olympischen Spielen 1936 in Berlin übersprangen drei Springerinnen die Höhe von 1,60 Meter: Die Ungarin Ibolya Csák im ersten Versuch, Dorothy Odam im zweiten Versuch und die Deutsche Elfriede Kaun im dritten Versuch. Da damals die Mehrversuchsregel noch nicht galt, kam es zum Stechen, in dem Csak 1,62 Meter überwand und Odam 1,60 Meter. Da Kaun jeweils riss, ergab sich nach dem Stechen dieselbe Reihung wie nach der heute üblichen Mehrversuchsregel. Bei den British Empire Games 1938 in Sydney siegte Odam mit 1,60 Meter vor ihrer Landsfrau Dora Gardner, bei den Europameisterschaften 1938 war Odam nicht am Start. Am 29. Mai 1939 übersprang Odam als erste Frau die Höhe von 1,66 Meter und dieses Mal wurde ihr Weltrekord anerkannt.

Erst 1948 nahm sie, mittlerweile als Dorothy Tyler, wieder an einer großen Meisterschaft teil: Bei den Olympischen Spielen 1948 in ihrer Heimatstadt London sprang sie neuen Landesrekord von 1,68 Meter. Da die US-Amerikanerin Alice Coachman ebenfalls 1,68 überwand, musste Dorothy Tyler nach zwölf Jahren erneut ins Stechen um Gold und wieder gewann sie die Silbermedaille. Im Februar 1950 fanden in Auckland die ersten Empire Games nach dem Weltkrieg statt. Tyler gewann zum zweiten Mal nach 1938; ebenso wie ihre zweitplatzierte Landsfrau Bertha Crowther überquerte sie 1,60 Meter. Im August 1950 bei den Europameisterschaften in Brüssel sprangen drei Springerinnen über 1,63 Meter, nach der mittlerweile eingeführten Mehrversuchsregel siegte ihre Landsfrau Sheila Alexander vor Tyler und Galina Ganeker aus der Sowjetunion.

Auch in den folgenden Jahren erreichte Tyler noch vordere Platzierungen. Bei den Olympischen Spielen 1952 belegte sie mit 1,58 Meter den siebten Platz. Im Sommer 1954 fanden die British Empire and Commonwealth Games in Vancouver statt. Die Nordirin Thelma Hopkins siegte mit 1,68 Meter, Tyler holte mit 1,60 Meter Silber für England. Ende 1956 bei den Olympischen Spielen in Melbourne stand Dorothy Tyler in ihrem vierten olympischen Finale, mit 1,60 Meter belegte sie den zwölften Platz.

1935 übersprang Dorothy Odam erstmals die Höhe von fünf Fuß (152,4 cm), letztmals gelang ihr dies 1966. 1936 war sie die jüngste Leichtathletin, die je einen britischen Rekord aufstellte. Sie gewann acht Landesmeistertitel im Hochsprung von 1936 bis 1956, 1951 gewann sie zusätzlich den Weitsprung und den Fünfkampf.

Bei einer Körpergröße von 1,68 m betrug ihr Wettkampfgewicht 52 kg. 2002 wurde ihr der Titel MBE verliehen.

Task team launched to save Beaufort West from drought
Environmental Affairs MEC Anton Bredell on Wednesday met with officials from the Beaufort West, Laingsburg and Prince Albert municipalities.

CAPE TOWN – The Western Cape Environmental Affairs Department says a task team has been formed to help find relief for the Karoo town of Beaufort West, which is currently in the grips of a major water crisis.
LISTEN: Beaufort West had to introduce water shedding on Christmas Eve
He says the situation is serious and authorities must urgently find short, medium and long-term solutions.
"Of the 40 boreholes 17 are already dried up. They don't supply any water. Seven others are fine while 16 are on the edge. They trip the safety valve to protect the pump once every second day."
Bredell says they are investigating some measures to access water.
"That's why we're going to send geologists to see if we can deepen certain boreholes and to inspect which other boreholes are drying up so that we can look at other sources."
The three reservoirs in Beaufort West are at 11, 13 and 28% capacity.
Meanwhile, Beaufort West's water reclamation plant was expected to be online by Tuesday morning. Officials were forced to shut down the plant in the Karoo town last week for critical maintenance. The plant had worked without maintenance for about two months and was at risk of failure if the service had not taken place.
The water reclamation plant provides an estimated 20% of the town's drinking water. Officials say tourists and travellers stopping in Beaufort West are putting further pressure on water resources. NGO Gift of the Givers last week sent trucks loaded with bottled water to the Karoo town.

With a repatriation deal in shambles and funding vanishing for a million refugees with ever-increasing requirements, Rohingya Muslims who fled brutal atrocities in Myanmar and sought refuge in Bangladesh face a bleak future, a year after the latest flare-up of the decades-old conflict. While massive humanitarian efforts are being made to improve the conditions in Cox's Bazar and Rakhine, Arya Pimpale argues that a lack of adequate funding is a major impediment to the continuity of these efforts.
August 25, 2018 marked a year since Myanmar's army began brutal military operations against the Rohingya community to drive them out of their villages in Rakhine, in what the UN called a 'textbook example of ethnic cleansing'. Since then, approximately 70,000 Rohingya have fled to neighbouring Bangladesh to seek refuge, adding to the tens of thousands who fled in the first half of 2017.
The Government of Myanmar led by Aung San Suu Kyi has blatantly denied all accusations of torture, genocide, sexual violence and other mass human rights violations by several political leaders, the UN, and the International Criminal Court, and instead blamed the crisis on Rohingya 'terrorist activities'. Earlier this year, it denied the UN's request to conduct a fact-finding mission in the country and ignored the International Criminal Court's request to exercise jurisdiction over alleged war crimes during the crisis. Recently, the report of the independent international fact-finding mission established by the UN Human Rights Council accused Myanmar's top military generals of war crimes and demanded they be investigated and prosecuted for the same through the International Criminal Court. The Government of Myanmar dismissed these charges and stated that it has no obligation to respect the court's ruling because it is not a party to the Rome Statute.
In November 2017, Bangladesh and Myanmar signed a deal for the possibility of voluntary repatriation of the Rohingya. This was followed by the agreement between the UN and Myanmar for a framework to start the process of repatriation. But the deal has been largely unsuccessful. Activist leaders of the community stated that the community has rejected the repatriation agreement due to the government's reluctance to restore the community's citizenship rights, guarantee their security after returning and provide compensation for all of their losses. In several instances, Myanmar has made it very clear that its stance on providing citizenship to the Rohingya will not shift anytime soon. Collective international pressure has made no difference thus far in shifting this stance. Buddhists and non-Muslims in the Rakhine State have openly expressed their discontent with the repatriation of Rohingya. The situation in Rakhine is still unstable as the Rohingya are crossing the border into Bangladesh until this day. Remaining Rohingya in Rakhine live in fear, cut off from society, and prohibited from movement in barricaded camps. With that said, it is highly unlikely that the Rohingya will return to a hostile environment.
Currently, the Government of Bangladesh and host communities seem fairly supportive towards the Rohingya. But this sentiment could potentially shift to a more hostile one due to the economic, political and/or security implications of the crisis on local communities. The government's announcement this year regarding its plans to move 100,000 refugees to the flood-prone island of Bhasan Char is a subtle indication of this. The management of camps has tied up about 2000 Government officials at an exorbitant annual cost. Tensions between the refugees and host communities are likely to increase with price hikes in local markets and rising competition for unskilled jobs.
A Joint Response Plan (JRP) established in March 2018 appealed for US$ 950.8 million for the period from March to December 2018. However, as of mid-August, only a third of the JRP has been funded. Governments and other international donors need to continue providing financial aid to enable humanitarian organisations to resume their programmes in Bangladesh as well as Rakhine. While overall conditions in the camps have improved significantly since the crisis began, the camps are still dangerously congested, and shelters are poorly constructed with flimsy materials. The risk of flooding, infrastructure devastation and infectious disease outbreaks due to extreme weather conditions looms large. Challenges such as addressing critical health gaps, improving access to quality education and enhancing self-reliance of the Rohingya are yet to be overcome and require long-term funding. More information on the current situation in Cox's Bazar can be found here.
In addition to this, there is also a growing concern that refugee camps could become breeding grounds for violent extremism. Several members and supporters of the Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army (ARSA) militant group that launched attacks on security posts in Rakhine in October 2016 and August 2017, ultimately triggering the indiscriminate military crackdown on Rohingya Muslims, reside in the camps. The militant group's subsequent announcement that it will continue fighting for the political rights of the Rohingya and its attack on the Burmese state in January indicates that more attacks may follow. The likelihood of other extremist groups taking advantage of the fragile situation in the camps is also high. The Rohingya refugees, having faced mass atrocities and lacking citizenship rights, and access to quality education and employment, are thus highly vulnerable to radicalization.
Given the slim prospects for repatriation, the fragile condition of the refugee camps in Cox's Bazar and the Bangladesh Government's incapacity to manage the burden, the best way the international community can help is by providing timely and sustained political and economic support to the humanitarian response in Bangladesh. Long-term donor arrangements need to be set-up to avoid discontinuity in the humanitarian activities of the JRP. It is also vital that investments to support efforts to reduce the burden on local communities and the government of Bangladesh are increased in order to create an environment that is favourable to possible future local integration.
At the same time, it is imperative that the international community continues pressing for greater access to the Rakhine state to provide humanitarian and development assistance to the stranded Rohingya in Rakhine. It must also push the Government of Myanmar to improve the situation in Northern Rakhine and create conditions conducive to voluntary return. Sustained efforts to achieve liability from the Government of Myanmar, whether through the International Criminal Court or other mechanisms, remain crucial to end ongoing and prevent future violence in Rakhine.

The Origins of Philippines Boxing, 1899-1929
March 12, 2012 By MO1
The Origins of Philippines Boxing, 1899-1929 By Joseph R. Svinth Copyright © Joseph R. Svinth 2001. All rights reserved. The assistance of Pat Baptiste, Hank Kaplan, Paul Lou, Eric Madis, Curtis Narimatsu, John Ochs, Michael Machado, and Kevin Smith is gratefully acknowledged. On June 18, 1923, Francisco "Pancho Villa" Guilledo beat Jimmy Wilde to become the world flyweight boxing champion, an accomplishment that was (and remains) a matter of great pride to people of Filipino descent. Unfortunately, while there has been some documentation of the many excellent Filipino boxers who subsequently followed Guilledo to the United States, there has not been as much attention paid to documenting the origins of boxing in the Philippines. This article represents a step toward correcting that omission. People with additional information or corrections are invited to contact the author at jsvinth@ejmas.com. "Pancho Villa, gone but not forgotten." Illustration by Ed Hughes, 1925. Boxing Enters the Philippines US servicemen introduced boxing to the Philippines during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. How this came about is that on April 25, 1898, the United States declared war on Spain, whose colonial holdings included the Philippines. So, on April 27, 1898, Commodore George Dewey ordered his squadron of five cruisers and two gunboats to steam from China to the Philippines, and there, on May 1, 1898, he issued the famous command, "You may fire when ready, Gridley." The resulting US naval victory effectively ended Spanish control of the region, and in August 1898 the US Army began the occupation of Luzon. Then, to the horror of the Filipinos, the Americans did not cede the Philippines to them: instead they decided to keep the islands for themselves. Between 1899 and 1913, this resulted in savage wars of peace whose heroes included Emilio Aguinaldo on one side and Arthur MacArthur, Frederick Funston, Leonard Wood, and John J. Pershing on the other. Casualties in these battles were heavy and one-sided: US casualties were listed as 4,243 killed and 2,818 wounded in action while Filipino casualties are estimated at 16,000 killed, plus another several hundred thousand dead from famine or disease (generally cholera). However, after Theodore Roosevelt's unilateral declaration of victory in July 1902, US commanders began thinking about how to reduce the rates of desertion, suicide, sexually transmitted diseases, drug abuse, and drunkenness among their soldiers and sailors. Boxing was offered as a potential solution. The reason was that boxers in training were taught to avoid tobacco, alcohol, and sexual activity. Furthermore, explained writer Charles L. Clay in 1887, "Boxing also makes a man self-reliant and resourceful when assailed by sudden or unexpected dangers or difficulties." This, in turn, said a YMCA director named C.H. Jackson in 1909, made young men "Christlike and manly." So, in 1902, Major Elijah Halford (a former secretary to President Benjamin Harrison) asked philanthropists for $200,000 to construct a YMCA in Manila, and by 1904, Army officers such as Edmund Butts were extolling the virtues of boxing in tropical environments such as Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines. US Military Boxers On November 18, 1899, soldiers of the 11th US Cavalry reported finding a pair of boxing gloves made by Sol Levinson of San Francisco abandoned in the Luzon village of San Mateo. According to Damon Runyon, writing in October 1925, Filipino prisoners reported that the "gloves had been brought in by a renegade soldier from the negro Twenty-fourth Infantry, and that he had been schooling the Filipinos in their use." Many early boxers in the Philippines were African American, as the all-black 9th and 10th US Cavalry, 24th and 25th US Infantry, and 48th and 49th US Volunteer Infantry formed a significant percentage of the American soldiers serving in the Philippines between 1899 and 1902. Following Roosevelt's declaration of peace, most of the black troops were sent back to the United States but in 1913, the 25th was in Hawaii. There the Honolulu Advertiser noted: The Twenty-fifth is proud of its colored ringmasters and particularly of Hollie Giles, a welterweight of 155 pounds, who is described by the men as a 'whirlwind' fighter; Morgan, a heavyweight at 190 pounds; Carson, a light heavyweight, and Ananias Harris, a light heavyweight. Meanwhile, from 1913 until 1917, the 24th was in the Philippines, serving at Camp McGrath (Batangas) and Fort Mills (Corregidor). Noted African American fighters from this period included the middleweights Joe Blackburn, "Craps" Johnson, and "Demon" White. Of course, there were also white soldiers who boxed in the Philippines. The most famous was New Jersey's Mike Ballerino. "Ballerino had a chip on his shoulder," Pancho Villa recalled in early 1925. "He dared any of the Filipinos to knock it off." So Pancho Villa did, … [Read more...]

Arnis: A Question of Origins by Bot Jocano
Arnis: A Question of Origins by Bot Jocano Rapid Journal Vol. 2, No. 4 4th Qtr 1997Taichi Works Publications 458 Jaboneros St. Binondo, Manila 1006 Arnis: A Question of Origins by Bot Jocano The term arnis evokes a number of reactions from people every time it is mentioned in a conversation. Some people start fanning their hands in the air, imitating the distinctive movements of the two-stick (doble baston) training method. This image of arnis is one of the most popular to the layman. A second reaction, and quite as common as the first, is the question: "Saan ba talaga galing ang arnis?" (Where did arnis really come from?) Alternatively, "Di ba, sa atin nanggaling ang arnis?î (Isn't it that arnis comes from us?) is a question also heard. This article is an attempt to critically examine the roots of one of the martial arts of the Philippines, arnis. It must be noted that in no way does this article claim to be the final say on the origins of arnis. It is actually a preliminary look, a start if you will, into re-examining carefully the origins of an art form. Arnis, also known as kali, escrima, baston, etc. is a complete martial art system, encompassing weapons training and empty-hand self-defense. It includes training in single stick techniques (solo baston), double stick techniques (doble baston), stick and knife or dagger techniques (espada y daga) and knife techniques (daga). Some styles may include staff and spear (sibat) training in their curriculum. Others will include the practice of medium to long bladed weapons (bolo) in their repertoire. Many styles have some form of empty hand combat, encompassing striking, kicking, locking, throwing and even choking methods. These are usually taught when the practitioner has demonstrated a reasonable degree of proficiency with the weapons of his style of arnis. Different arnis styles, from different parts of the country, may emphasize different areas of the training methods noted above. The term arnis is believed to be a Tagalog corruption of the Spanish term arnes, or harness, a reference to the decorations worn by the early Filipinos. Kali is another term used to refer to the same kind of martial arts. Different provinces may have different names for arnis, such as baston and kaliradman (Ilonggo, Bisaya), pagkalikali (Ibanag) and kalirongan (Pangasinan). These are only a few examples of the terms already recorded in different sources. With such a comprehensive system of martial arts being taught and promoted in different areas of the country, it is inevitable that people would ask, where did such a complete martial art system come from? One suggestion is that it originally came from another martial art system, called tjakalele. This is actually the name of a branch of the Indonesian martial art system known as pentjak silat. Another suggestion is that it was brought here from the Southeast Asian mainland, particularly during the Madjapahit and Shri-Visayan empires. Yet another suggestion is that it was propagated by the so-called ten Bornean datus fleeing persecution from their homeland. We shall critically examine these assertions one at a time. The idea that arnis evolved or was derived from another martial art system, namely tjakalele silat, is due to linguistics. The alternative name for arnis is kali. It is widely held that this is the older term for arnis, and that kali itself emphasizes bladed weaponry apart from practice with the stick. It is not surprising that a connection could be seen between the term kali and tjakalele. However, linguistic similarity alone is not enough ground to assert that kali was indeed derived from tjakalele. There has to be documented proof that one came from the other. What form should this proof take? Authenticated documents certainly are one of the best pieces of evidence - if such could be found, and proven to be genuine. A close and thorough comparison of both styles would help, but it must be remembered that they would have changed over time, reflecting the different changes that have happened in their cultures of origin. On the other hand, one of the local terms for a bladed weapon is kalis. It is also believed that kali is a derived term from kalis. This assertion will require study before it can be validated. Another oft-quoted idea is that kali was brought here during the Shri-Vishayan (7th -14th centuries and Madjapahit (13th -16th centuries) empires. This reflects the notion that the Philippines then was somehow an integral part of both empires. It must be noted that the archaeological evidence for the role of the Philippines in both empires is very meager. About the best that could be said is that there was commercial contact, but whether such contact also included the spreading of martial arts is circumstantial at best. A third idea regarding the spreading and propagation of kali in the Philippines is that ten Bornean datus (sometimes nine) fled here and settled in various parts of … [Read more...]

The History of Tapado by Master Joe Tan
March 8, 2012 By MO1
History of Tapado Tapado is an Original Filipino Martial Art which came from a Hiligaynon (a Filipino dialect) word 'Tapat' or 'Tapos' which means – finished or done in english or to finish the job in one strike. This art was founded in 1960 by the late Grandmaster Romeo 'Nono' Mamar of Taloc, Bago City, Negros Occidental, Philippines. 'Nono' as he was fondly called, was an accomplished stickfighter specializing in lagas, sinamak and oido arnis systems. But despite his proficiencies in these various arts of arnis/kali/escrima, he found them wanting because according to his actual experiences during matches among his peers, he could still be hit by his opponent. As in a boxing match..where even the champion could still be pummeled despite his experiences, training and exposures, Nono didn't like the idea of taking hits at all. So after experiencing these various hits and a few times, even defeats, he decided to take a break from stickfighting for a couple of years. But due to his undying love of this art, he continued his personal search along the line of other arts in relations to stickfighting. He noticed that a sword with its longer length has an advantage of reach and power. And so this prompted him to experiment with longer sticks of various sizes and length. After his rigid testing and re testing, he finally settled for a longer stick 43 to 47 inches long. The length is based on the height of the person. But then again, he started thinking : what if the opponent has the same size and length of stick.too?. Thru persistent research and self discovery, he came up with the solutions. He developed various unseen hand, wrist, arm, shoulder and body movements, that jibed with the law of Physics, that generated a lot of power to his strikes and always resulted in overpowering all incoming strikes. Not content to just the overpowering strike, Nono wanted to add a simultaneous offensive hit at the same time thereby rendering the opponent incapacitated with just one powerful and speedy blow. And thus the birth of Tapado. Tapado ,in its early inception, was secretly propagated and practiced only by relatives and family members of the clan. There was an early Tapado Association formed in 1980 but it was still limited and exclusive for members of the family , close relatives and associates. In 1983, Tapado was formally organized and introduced to the public. When the founder died on February 15, 2005, the leadership of the original tapado organization was handed down to his nephew GM Benefredo 'Bebing' Lobrido . It took on the official name of Original Filipino Tapado Longstick Fighting Association. Inc. Another Tapado group was set up under GM Mike F. Vasquez, the founder of Vasquez Modified Martial Art International. An undefeated heavy weight Karate champion of the Philippines , a Master Arnis practicioner and a top tapado student of Nono Mumar. GM Mike introduced modifications in the tapado system and called it MODIFIED TAPADO. GM Mike had discussed his ideas of modifications with the original founder while he was alive and was given the authority to do so. The author Master Jose Valencia Tan, has the privilege of having studied under both Grandmasters, GM Nono Mumar and GM Mike Vasquez and including GM Lobrido (when the latter was the Chief Instructor of Original Tapado ). The author is recognized and Certified as Master of Tapado by both Organizations. Currently, Master Joe is propagating Tapado in the US and is an authorized Sole representative of Modified Tapado Organization in the State of California.

Giving the Right Credits By Punong Guro Edgar G. Sulite
Giving the Right Credits By Punong Guro Edgar G. Sulite This article was first published in VORTEX (Volume 4, Number 1) in 1995. A quarterly newsletter of Lameco Eskrima International, the publisher was the late Punong Guro Edgar G. Sulite who passed away on April 10, 1997. The editor was Arnold A. Noche. Giving the Right Credits By Punong Guro Edgar G. Sulite In today's society, martial arts practitioners are constantly bombarded by the knowledge and techniques of various martial arts arriving from all four corners of the world. These are the same exact techniques that were once forbidden to be taught outside the family circle by the very same people who created it and used it. Those people dedicated their lives in the laboratory of the battlefield just to experiment whether their techniques would work or not. Many lives had been wasted before the techniques were ever refined. The masters from the different martial arts devoted their time, energy and, above all, their life in the development of their fierce combat techniques. The Filipino martial arts (Eskrima, Kali, Arnis), Kung-Fu, Thai Boxing, Karate, Indonesian Silat, Jiu-Jitsu, Western Boxing, Tai-Chi, Judo, Savate and other martial arts are just a mere phone call away. In our generation today, we are extremely fortunate to have these different types of martial arts available within our grasp. I remember Grandmaster Jose D. Caballero who was my teacher in the De Campo Uno-Dos-Tres Orihinal System. It took me more than one year to court him, bringing him food each day on every visit as a means of a gift, just for him to accept me as a student. It was primarily because I was an outsider, one who didn't belong to their family, that I was not accepted right away. It was also because of my perseverance, that I never stopped coming to his house to ask him to teach me, that I was finally accepted to become one of his disciples. Nowadays, you can study any and all kinds of martial arts as you wish, because they are available within your reach, for as long as you have the determination to learn. Due to the abundance of these martial arts that we study, we somehow consciously or subconsciously mix it together as one. This bring us now to the big problem that evolves due to the fact that some martial arts teachers, as well as some students, are not honest enough in giving the right credits to where they have gotten the knowledge from or where they have attained the techniques from. One afternoon in Manila, Philippines, during our Sunday sessions with Grandmaster Antonio Ilustrisimo in Luneta Park, we noticed two bystanders carefully observing our training with extremely watchful eyes. I, being one of the spokesmen of the Kali Ilustrisimo System, approached the two men and asked them if they knew Eskrima, Kali or Arnis. I also asked them if they would show us some of their moves. The demonstration that they performed for us was quite impressive. Grandmaster Ilustrisimo, who does not impress easily at all especially if you are from another style of Kali, was astounded. After their demonstration we asked immediately who their teacher was. One of the young men replied that they did not have a teacher that they just went to the mountains and meditated to formulate the techniques, which they had just performed. We did not believe him nor them. Master Tony Diego said to me that it was such a pity to their teacher, whoever it was, that these two men would turn out to be so disrespectful. Less than a year later, during our meeting with the different grandmasters of Arnis Philippines, I met an old master that demonstrated the same techniques that I saw earlier from the two men. When I asked the master if he knew of the two, he replied that they were his students. The truth will always come out. Giving the right credits to where we have learned the techniques from pays a lot of respect to the people who invented it and devoted their life in battle just to prove that it works. It is their pride that their names are being remembered and honored by us who are now practicing or who have practiced their once called forbidden art. … [Read more...]

The attending spectators can expect a nail-biting final round at the CIFA Complex today with only one more spot available in the 2019 OFC champions league. Two teams from this qualifying round will move forward to play the top clubs from other countries such as New Zealand, Fiji, and New Caledonia.
Tupapa Maraerenga will attempt to bag another victory to secure the top spot which will determine where they will fly to. Whereas American Samoa's Pago youth will want to end their tournament on a high. The local side will play Pago youth, in the final game today of the tournament, at 5:30 pm.
Kiwi FC will play Loto Ha'apai at 2:30 pm for a chance to score the remaining spot in the OFC champions league to commence in a few weeks. Both teams sit at equal points on the points table, whereby winning one game and losing another. Loto Ha'apai, however, has a higher goal difference and will only need a draw to move on to the next round.
In a pre-match interview both coaches mentioned how important this game is for them, and the players.
"We have good chances still. Win or draw. We aren't going for a draw at the moment, we are going for a win so we can be the second team to qualify for the second round" Loto Ha'apai coach, Lui Muavesi, said.
Muavesi also mentioned Loto Ha'apai has not qualified for the next stage before and so they are looking to create history for their club.
Kiwi FC Coach Martin Tamasese emphasized the importance of this game saying "This is the most important game for us. If we win, we qualify. If not, we are out. That is the reason why we really want to prepare well".

I did and it was a good pilot. I almost laughed during the whole episode. I hope it can keep up with the original.
This is the first time I'm hearing about this! I used to watch BMW quite a bit when I was a kid, and the whole TGIF lineup.
I haven't seen it yet but I may take a watch.
I loved Boy Meets World.
Didn't one of the actors die who was on it?
As far as I know, not sure about that. ???
Like all other Disney shows, it's gonna get cancelled after three seasons and 60-something episodes.
If the show is going to survive it needs to move to ABC Family and focus on more serious topics. This new show is just a simple comedy that does not even try to relate to the audience in any significant, meaningful way.
Um, 'Boy Meets World' was NEVER a popular 90s show.
In the words of a Blaine Edwards, hated itttt. It was a rip-off of 'The Wonder Years' and 'The Wonder Years' was always the better show out of the two of them. 'The Wonder Years' was actually pop culture too. I don't get how this junk got a spin-off. Oh right, those ever annoying '90s kids' whined and whined until it was made.
It was more of a 00's show.
Oh my bad I thought it was a 00's show.
You mean 1993, right? In '92, that junk would never fly with mainstream audiences. It would be off the air quicker than Cop Rock. Boy Meets World came out at just the right time, immediately after Clinton took office. In other words, this was the ultimate show of the touchy-feely 1990s (The Clinton days). The early 90s (more like 1989) were dead and we were officially in the mid 1990s (they took off with late 1992). I hate 'Boy Meets World' with a passion.
It seeped into that whole 1999-2002 era. It entered when Clinton did and left with him too.
With my sources and my list of Boy Meets World's reception, it's pretty obvious that it was a popular '90s show. Unpopular TV shows do not get seven seasons. Just because you didn't like it doesn't mean everyone else disliked it.
Interesting, it was never mentioned on any episode of VH1's "I Love the 90s" or any book on the 1990s. "Boy Meets World" was nothing other than "The Wonder Years" (this was actually pop culture) set in present day for late Millenials.
Not sure if anyone else heard it but Girl Meets World is now cancelled. They finished airing the series finale a week ago and they will no longer be airing new seasons. It was a pretty short run (2014 - 2017) I think a lot of people got disappointed because it didn't meet their expectations or it wasn't as good as the original.
They needed to give Mr. Feeny more camera time.

Xiaomi Mi MIX 4 goes official; features under-display camera, Snapdragon 888+ 5G SoC, and ceramic body
Posted by by Jeet August 11, 2021
Xiaomi has officially unveiled its latest smartphone under the Mi MIX lineup after a gap of around three years. But, it was worth the wait as the brand has launched the smartphone with some advanced and innovative technology which is the USP of the Mi MIX series smartphone from China-based Xiaomi.
The Mi MIX 4 debuts as Xiaomi's slimmest ceramic body smartphone so far. It features a 6.67-inch AMOLED display with a screen resolution of 2400 x 1080 pixels. The highlight remains the under-display camera sensor of 20-megapixel. Yes, this is the first smartphone from Xiaomi that hides the camera sensor under the display panel.
The under-screen camera technology has improved a lot in the past couple of years that it is ready for a commercial launch in a premium smartphone. However, Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun says that if you nitpick details in a selfie, then you should stick to the punch-hole camera but adds that the under-screen camera should be good enough for the majority of users.
The display offers a P3 color gamut, Dolby Vision, HDR10+, 120Hz refresh rate, and Gorilla Glass Victus protection. Under the hood, the device is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888+ 5G chipset, making it the first smartphone to be powered by this new flagship processor. It packs up to 12GB of LPDDR5 RAM and up to 512GB UFS 3.1 storage.
In the camera department, there's a 108-megapixel main camera, an 8-megapixel 5x optical zoom camera, and a 13-megapixel 120-degree ultra-wide camera. While the camera configuration is impressive, Lei Jun says that the company is saving the camera components for the upcoming flagship lineup.
The Mi Mix 4 is powered by a 4,500mAh battery and supports 120W wired charging, which goes from zero to 100 percent in 21 minutes. There's also 50W wireless charging, which normally takes 45 minutes for a full charge.
Xiaomi will be selling the Mi Mix 4 in China starting from August 16th in three color options — White, Black, and Gray. The 8GB + 128GB model costs 4,999 yuan (around $770) while the 12GB + 512GB is priced at 6,299 yuan (~$970). Currently, there's no information available about the phone's availability outside its home market.

2021 Boston elections
Boston City Council District 3 Race: Frank Baker and Stephen McBride
Two candidates are running for District 3: Incumbent Frank Baker and Stephen McBride.
District 3 covers parts of Dorchester.
By Mihiro Shimano
Below are the responses to the candidates' policies and thoughts on current issues that affect the city of Boston.
What are your thoughts on Mass and Cass and what solutions would you suggest to the problems that have arisen in the area?
Baker: Repurpose Nashua Street Jail into a Department of Public Health facility for Section 12 and Section 35, drug diversion, and self-admittance for detox. I would also add a coordination response center at Mass. and Cass where all departments are working together in one place. I would also add multiple bodies to the Boston Police Street Outreach Unit.
McBride: The District 3 city councilor bears a unique responsibility in addressing this crisis, as it sits within the district's boundary. We need a bold leader who is unafraid to take this issue head-on and can work in partnership with the rest of the council. While we continue to press for long-term solutions, such as the reopening of facilities on Long Island, we must make use of the resources already at our disposal. This begins with a decentralization of the services currently offered near the intersection of Massachusetts Avenue and Melnea Cass Boulevard. By taking advantage of properties already under the Boston Planning and Development Agency's control, we can act swiftly to get those living on the streets into stable housing and treatment programs across the city and away from the heart of the crisis. We must simultaneously work with our partners on Beacon Hill to get additional statewide resources up and running to adequately meet the scale of this human tragedy. Our strategy must be comprehensive to address the challenges brought by the confluence of housing, mental illness, and addiction crises and must not criminalize those most in need of our help.
How can housing in Boston be more affordable and inclusive of all communities while mitigating gentrification?
Baker: We need to better coordinate city resources with the builders from the private sector. The should be delivering City of Boston assets, such as city-owned land, that are already designed and permitted to private developers to build more units of affordable housing.
McBride: Addressing our city's housing crisis begins with reimagining development in Boston for what the city is and what it can be, not what it was. It is no secret that this city is growing and changing with no plans to slow down, but we are developing for a city of the past and leaving our neighbors behind in the process. By creating a comprehensive plan for the future of Boston, we can establish overlay districts that will allow us to create more housing at a variety of price points to adequately meet the needs of our neighborhoods. We need guidelines with accountability measures that are informed by and for the benefit of the community, not those who seek to profit off us.
Our processes should be more transparent and understandable in order to build trust in the planning and development process across this city. Updating our zoning code will provide opportunities to build a Boston of the future centered on how to ethnically develop a city with a dedicated focus on racial and economic justice. We must also work to ensure that our affordability standards are adequate to meet the current need — this includes revisiting the Inclusionary Development Percentage (IDP) — which dictates how much of a development must be set aside as affordable housing, currently 13% — as well as the 10-unit minimum at which it takes effect.
How would you, if at all, adjust the Boston Police Department budget?
Baker: We have multiple opportunities to redirect money into our police department, such as a coordinated response unit at Mass. and Cass.
McBride: The police budget should be reflective of the needs of our community. Currently, we are directing funds to the police department for community needs that could be better addressed by those not in law enforcement. It is time for significant investment in social services and alternative safety measures. This investment will reduce the need for police intervention and improve our response to emergencies, such as mental illness crises, that social workers and healthcare professionals better serve.
Outside of social services, we must identify wasted funds. We must reduce needless spending on military-grade equipment that has only damaged the trust between law enforcement and community members and done little to increase public safety. We can also reduce current spending by introducing civilian traffic details in place of a police presence that often results in expensive overtime pay. Finally, when making any changes to the police budget and the role of law enforcement, we must do so with community input and demonstrated need in mind.
What are your top priorities for Boston Public Schools right now?
Baker: Working on separating Madison Park Vocational High School out of the Boston Public Schools so it can become a Suffolk County Regional Vocational School.
McBride: We have the resources to provide our students with an education that prepares them for a future here in Boston and a responsibility to ensure that every student has an equal opportunity to thrive. We must determine the barriers preventing students from receiving a high-quality public education on a school-by-school basis. There is no universal solution, and this process will ensure we invest strategically. Whether updating infrastructure, improving our experiences for ESL (English as a second language) learners, expanding vocational offerings, or determining how to better support teachers, we cannot fix the problems until we understand what they are. Once we know where our funds can best be directed, we can begin to utilize the hundreds of millions of dollars in COVID-19 relief funds for strategic improvements. Building on successful models we've seen across the city, such as the community hub at the Gardner Pilot Academy or the inclusion model at the Henderson, we can re-envision what learning looks like across our city, not only supporting our students but also supporting our families. Finally, voting Yes on Question 3 and signaling our support of adding elected representatives to our school committee will give our communities a greater voice.
What are two of your top priorities that you would like to address?
Baker: My top priority would be to ensure that the proper infrastructure improvements will be implemented to ensure that neighborhoods will be properly connected to the Columbia Point peninsula. Another priority of mine would be to bring more job training programs for the incoming life science industry to my district so our neighbors and children can gain access to these top paying jobs.
McBride: My top priorities are addressing the crisis at Mass and Cass and fighting for safe, stable, and affordable housing. The crisis at Mass and Cass requires immediate action, and we have not seen the political will necessary for the scale of this crisis. I will advocate for an expansion of wrap-around services located away from Mass and Cass and provide a stable shelter with access to the treatment and counseling necessary to help them on the road to recovery. Expanding available services requires a leader capable of building partnerships across the city and state to reduce the concentrated pressure, both on those suffering and the healthcare workers trying to support them. On housing, we must view development through the lens of community benefit rather than corporate profit. By focusing on improving neighborhoods instead of simply lining the pockets of big developers, we can make the changes necessary to improve the affordability of living in Boston. When I enter City Hall, I want to be clear about who I am accountable to — the people. The status quo has not been working for the vast majority of the city, and we must seek to change it.
Responses may have been edited for length and clarity.

Nielsen Helps Measure Brand Impact on the Twitter Platform
Social networks have become one of the most preferred platforms for launching new campaigns, but marketers do want to know how effective their promotions in such media are. To help brands measure the impact of their promotions through Twitter Promoted Products, the micro-blogging service has teamed up with Nielsen—together, they have developed a "newest tool for our advertising partners, brand impact measurement for Twitter."
Photo: A screenshot of the survey on Twitter, www.advertising.twitter.com (click to enlarge)
"This is a native experience for the user, and we believe it will give brands better insights to determine purchase intent, overall awareness, and other advertising metrics and analytics that can lead to greater engagement on Twitter," says the Twitter blog. The new solution will help discover what the Twitterians really think of the brands' activity on the platform so that the marketers will be able to adjust the promotions to reach maximum impact.
The surveys by Nielsen will appear within the user's timeline as tweets from @TwitterSurveys, there will be no difference between these messages and the Promoted Tweets. Users will not have to leave their Twitter page to fill out a survey, so the new addition won't take out from their micro-blogging environment.
So far, Twitter is testing the new feature with just a few advertisers, but it plans to make it available to a bigger number of partners in early 2013. Last year, Nielsen, the company which offers audience and consumer-generated media measurement and analysis, collaborated with Facebook to measure the impact of its ads.
