Anything present on the webpage such as textbox, text, button, link, table, radio button, checkbox etc, are called as webelement.
Before performing any action on webelement (typing, clicking, selecting etc ), selenium has to uniquely identify those elements.
In order to use this, it uses few of the characteristics(8 types) are given by the developer while developing the webpage using html.
How to find WebElement ?
In order to interact with UI objects with Selenium Kotlin we need to be able to identify webpage elements fast and in an accurate way(sometimes uniquely). We don't want to refactor these locators very often so we must choose the right locators from the start.
There are some browser tools that you can use in order to identify web elements in the DOM easier.
We will explore the above tools in following tutorials.
Apart from these 8 locators we have another 18 more inbuilt locators, Selenium api provides power to the user to create custom locators in selenium.
Automation developer should the locator in below order, so the failures will get reduced, if id has more than one match then user should try with Name so on..
The link text finds the element based on the text present in tag, text highlighted in below image.
CSS Selector is the combination of an element selector and a selector value which identifies the web element within a web page. The composite of element selector and selector value is known as Selector Pattern.
While DOM is the recognized standard for navigation through an HTML element tree, XPath is the standard navigation tool for XML also we can use it for HTML; and an HTML document is also an XML document (xHTML).
If we want to perform any operation on webelement, we have to find them using locators but locators finds them on the browser, to make those elements available to selenium we have to find them with selenium Method.
Selenium provides method 'findElement()'. This method finds the element with help of By class methods(nothing but locators).
1. Use this method to access any single element on the web page.
2. It returns the first matching element of the specified locator.
3. It throws an NoSuchElementException exception when it fails to locate the element( when element is not there).
We can use findElement() method to find single element but sometime we may want to perform operation on more than one element, in those cases we cannot write findElement() method for all the elements.
In Kotlin selenium we have a findElements() method which can return multiple elements matching with given locator, findElements() returns list of webelement.
2. It gives back the whole list of all(not all but all the elements which are loaded by that time) the elements matching the specified locator.
3. If the element doesn't exist or not available on the page then, the return value will be an empty list.
2. You can retrieve elements as List or ArrayList.

Blind Faith: Michelle Williams' Fiance Paid on Engagement Ring for 11 Years
We are often told to prepare for the lives we want, whether it be purchasing furniture for the home we want, dressing for the job we plan to have, or clearing off the other side of the bed to make room for a future partner (yes ladies, we know).
Most often when it comes to relationships, we're encouraged to rid our lives of the unnecessary baggage that prevents us from developing something meaningful with another person. Of course, this applies to both sexes; but it is most often directed towards women.
So, it's quite refreshing to see a man who says he started preparing for his wife long before she came along. It's no secret that former Destiny's Child singer Michelle Williams has a very spiritual background. While with the group, she was very vocal about her faith, she always had a more conservative outfit than her band mates, and after the group broke up, she started making gospel music.
Well, her fiance Chad Johnson is a pastor and chaplain; and according to an article in The Knot, Johnson explained how he paid every month for a ring, though he had no specific person in mind as the recipient. He just knew the woman who would receive it would be deserving of it.
Now, THAT is blind faith! Johnson didn't know who or when his future wife would come along, but he prepared for the moment he'd ask her to be his forever. He prepared for 11 years! Read more of the full story.

First-listen review
Dr Dre
Dr Dre – Compton first listen review: 'This is not someone coasting on reputation'
Compton: A Soundtrack by Dr Dre has been delayed for so long that even hardcore fans might have had doubts. But it's a stunning comeback that cements the rapper's place in history
Andrew Emery
Fri 7 Aug 2015 03.12 EDT Last modified on Thu 22 Feb 2018 07.03 EST
Still a perfectionist ... Dr Dre Photograph: Chelsea Lauren/Getty Images for BET
When your stake in a company making not particularly great headphones has pushed you close to being a billionaire, does it matter to you if your new album is relevant or not? More to the point, when you've had your hand in some of the biggest selling hip-hop records of all time – guiding the career of Eminem and Snoop Dogg, helping to invent gangsta rap, writing the blueprint for G-Funk – do you even need to be judged cutting edge in 2015? Haven't you been there, done that? If you're Dr Dre, such a concern could be trifling. But from listening to Compton: A Soundtrack by Dr Dre, his first album since 1999's 2001 (and only his third album since 1992's debut the Chronic) it actually seems to matter to him as much as ever.
Dr Dre at 50: NWA, bangers and beef – the moments that made a megastar
Dre has been going long enough to call Grandmaster Flash and Afrika Bambaataa contemporaries, yet in 2015, he's still able to drop onto a Kendrick Lamar track and sound like he's only just arrived. His gift for rejuvenation is remarkable and, far from phoning it in, he has already scrapped this comeback album (when it was known as Detox or, to give it its official title "The long-awaited Detox") simply because he wasn't happy with it, sales be damned. There's still something of the perfectionist about him.
Yet there was also a nagging sense, even among longtime fans, that Dre's best days could be behind him. When did he last craft a masterpiece? Is he too busy mugging in Eminem videos to drop something as epochal as 1992's The Chronic? Are the Kendrick collaborations just a chance for the new star to doff his cap at a legend before he's put out to pasture?
Lots of questions, and only Compton can begin to answer them. He sets his stall out early, roping in fresh new guests but waving his walking stick too: "I'm too old I forgot I got it all, but Andre young enough to still get involved" he rhymes on opener Talk About It. And he is. He wisely avoids retreading old stylistic ground and nor does he try to skew too young for the clubs. Instead, he captures much of the manic, musical joy of Kendrick's recent instant classic To Pimp a Butterfly, an album made for the headphone experience. Hip-hop fights for elbow room with blues, scat, doo-wop and funk by the fistful. It's the restless, soulful brew of a man who hasn't put out his own long-player this millennium.
The introspection of Darkside/Gone, with its shout out to colleague turned adversary Eazy-E, makes way for the chaos of Loose Cannons and the even more hyper Issues. The latter features a reunion with Ice Cube, but what's most thrilling is the surplus of ideas, with something always happening at the margins, pulling the groove into different areas. This is not someone coasting on reputation; this is someone cementing their place in history.
Snoop Dogg feeds off the energy, turning in his best guest shot in years on the viciously propulsive One Shot One Kill, and Gang Starr legend DJ Premier is similarly inspired, his work on Animals helping to make it an instant standout. If there's a false note, it's Eminem's verse on Medicine Man. It's structurally brilliant, but he falls into his familiar habits of shouting a lot and trying to say the most offensive thing in the room. He succeeds, and temporarily takes you out of the story the album has thrillingly told.
What's particularly impressive is how Dre, inspired by the NWA biopic Straight Outta Compton, has captured the past of his hometown – The Game, Snoop, Cube, Cold 187um (of oft-overlooked legends Above the Law, whose debut album was produced by one Dr. Dre back in 1989) – and mixed it perfectly with the present. Asia Bryant, Jon Connor, Justus, King Mez and Anderson Paak, among others, are all newcomers who more than justify their presence here. Dre and NWA aren't simply the past, a moment preserved in amber – with Compton he's shown us something new under the Californian sun.

The emergence of online slots in the digital age
By Alexander Joe Published Jan 10, 2023 at 10:52 AM GMT
When I think about the history of online slot machines, I can't help but be amazed by how far they've come in such a short amount of time. From the earliest physical slot machines to the complex and immersive virtual games we have today, it's clear that the evolution of online slot machines reflects the rapid pace of technological change in the gambling industry .
The first slot machines
The first physical slot machines were invented in the late 19th century, and they quickly became popular in bars and saloons across the United States. These early machines were relatively simple, with three reels and a handful of symbols, and they paid out prizes in the form of chewing gum or other small trinkets. As time went on, physical slot machines evolved and became more complex, with the introduction of fruit symbols, video screens, and progressive jackpots !
But it wasn't until the emergence of online casinos in the late 1990s that slot machines truly entered the digital age. The first online slot games were relatively basic, with simple graphics and limited gameplay features, but they quickly gained popularity as players around the world discovered the convenience of being able to play from home. Over time, the online slot industry has exploded, with hundreds of game developers creating a wide range of virtual slot machines that are available at online casinos around the world .
Today, online slot games are more advanced and immersive than ever before. With stunning graphics, complex gameplay features, and the potential for huge payouts, it's no wonder that they are among the most popular forms of online gambling. And as technology continues to advance, it's likely that online slot games will only get better and more exciting in the future.
Personally, I love playing online slot games because of the endless variety and the opportunity to win big. Whether I'm spinning the reels on a classic fruit machine or trying my luck on a progressive jackpot game, I always feel a rush of excitement when I play. And with the convenience of being able to play from my phone or computer, I can enjoy all the thrills of the casino without ever having to leave my home .
RTP slots
Now let's dig into some oft the most popular forms of slot online: RTP slots.
RTP, or "return to player," is a term used to describe the percentage of wagered money that a slot machine is programmed to return to players over time. For example, a slot machine with an RTP of 95% will return an average of 95% of the money wagered on it to players, while the casino will keep the remaining 5%. RTP is an important factor to consider when choosing which slot machines to play, as it can affect your chances of winning .
Especially countries like Indonesia have seen a huge uprise in the hype of RTP slots, because they offer the potential for players to win back a significant portion of their wagers. This can make the games more exciting and more attractive to players, as they have the opportunity to recoup some of their losses or even turn a profit. Additionally, the RTP of a slot machine may be advertised by the casino or the game manufacturer, so players can make more informed decisions about which games to play . Whether you're a seasoned gambler or a newcomer to the world of online slots, it's always a good idea to keep RTP in mind when choosing which games to play.
In conclusion, the history of online slot machines is a fascinating one, and it's clear that these virtual games have come a long way in a short amount of time. From their humble beginnings in bars and saloons to their current status as some of the most popular games at online casinos, online slot machines have evolved to keep pace with changing technology and player preferences. Who knows what the future holds for these virtual games, but one thing is certain: they will continue to be a popular form of entertainment for years to come.

Lakewood & East Dallas Features
Terilli's is back from the ashes and better than ever
Stephen Lu
This weekend on Lower Greenville will be rocking and not just for the regular reasons. Terilli's Restaurant is reopening after over a year of rebuilding and is ready to open their doors to the public on Friday. However, regulars of the restaurant may be a little shocked at the changes.
"We're a lot bigger," said owner Joey Terilli. "We went from small and quaint to having three levels but we've still kept the same feeling and atmosphere."
Diners can chow down on the main floor or take a staircase in the back up to a smaller, more private balcony area. And, once the weather finally cools off, they can take their food to the roof and enjoy a meal outside. And Terilli's food is what so many of their customers are craving, especially their famous "Italchos".
Terilli said that the entire kitchen staff is the same, so regular patrons don't have to worry about a change in food taste or quality. The bar staff is also largely the same save for a few new faces. However, Terilli's is only returning four of the original servers; the rest will all be new.
Terilli's isn't having a Grand Opening to celebrate but will instead be part of a Grand Block Opening later in September with two other restaurants that also burned down in the 2010 March fire.
Supporters of Terilli's that bought bricks as part of a campaign to raise money will be happy to know their bricks have been installed and ready to be viewed. The Terilli's are very grateful to the community and everyone that supported them as they came back from the ashes.
"Thanks for all the support and the customers that came by," said Terilli. "The support from customers and the media has been fantastic."

Q: how to read and update the SACL properties of a folder in a remote machine in active directory I am trying to read and update the SACL properties of a folder in a domain machine from the domain controller.
I came across this link but I don't know how to use the IADs::Get to get the object of the folder from the active directory.
I am struggling to find the ldap query to get the folder, I searched all over the internet but I couldn't find a single example for this use case.
Can anyone help me with an example or a reference?

A: IADs::Get is only for objects in Active Directory itself. You can't use it for files on a file system.
To modify permissions a file on a remote computer, you treat it pretty much the same as a file on the local system. You can use GetNamedSecurityInfo, where pObjectName would be the path to the file in the format of \\server\share\directory\file.txt and ObjectType is SE_FILE_OBJECT.
The credentials being used to run your program will need to already have rights to access that file on the remote system.

Where hygiene learning and fun come together… our health training number 10!
Just two days back -as part of the ongoing health awareness training for tribal and urban self-help groups in South India – we offered module x , this time on simple surgery and hygiene. And we are very happy to see that nearly all participants from the first module training onwards are still very keen on learning about health and sharing their knowledge with families and neighbors when they are back in their villages.
The module X helps to learn the importance on how to care appentisitis, hernia, wound care, fat balls in the body, dental problems and how to deal with these problems.
Our local doctor Dr Naveen from the tribal hospital and our employee, Dr Arpit Jain from Mumbai prepared and conducted successfully this training unit.
One main topic was also hand wash with soap before food and after toilet use, good wash habits, clean toilets, importance of toilet and no open defecation, the importance of cleaning private parts and menstrual hygiene as well as the importance of brushing teeth twice in a day and nail cutting.
These two days helps women to understand the importance of health and prevention. Many women expressed that these inputs are very useful in their day to day life and change their life style.
Practical demo was conducted for all the participants on how to wash hands through soap "in seven steps" and how to brush the teeth.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Lawmakers have reached an agreement on the farm bill, a mammoth package that will fund key safety net programs for the next five years.
The conference report signed Monday by members of the House and Senate is the result of months of negotiations. The bill has a price tag of $867 billion over a decade and is expected to be brought to a vote this week in the House, possibly as soon as Wednesday.
The legislation reauthorizes crop insurance and conservation programs and legalizes the cultivation of industrial hemp.
It does not make significant changes to the food stamp program that serves nearly 40 million low-income Americans. President Donald Trump and House Republicans had pushed to create new work requirements for food stamps, but negotiators rejected them.

Friday 3rd March 2017 - 10:10
World Book Day on Thursday 2nd March at Imberhorne School was a real page-turner this year! Now in its 20th Year, World Book Day, provides us with an opportunity to inspire and celebrate the world of literature. Every year, in over 100 countries around the world, children of all ages come together to explore, and to be encouraged, by the pleasure that reading offers. And Imberhorne was no different, a whole agenda was pulled together by our English Department to celebrate authors, illustrators and reading.
Beginning the day with a continental feel, students were invited to begin or strengthen their love of reading with a pastry and orange juice; before having the opportunity to enjoy talks from visiting authors Eve Ainsworth and Garen Ewing.
Eve is an award winning teen author, whose third book 'Damage' is about to be published following on from the success of 'Seven Days' (2015) and 'Crush' (2016). Eve's novels tackle topical issues that maybe experienced by teens, providing an emotionally evocative platform for advice, understanding and encouragement to seek help.
Garen Ewing is a freelance illustrator whose passion lays with children's illustrations 'whether that's drawings for children or about children'. Another area of Garen's work saw him, commissioned by JCDecaux, in 2015, to create a comic strip that would appear daily on their digital screens across the UK in the run-up to Christmas. You may have seen this on your travels. However, your children may know him from his graphic adventure series 'The Rainbow Orchid' in which the character of Julius Chancer takes on a quest to discover the lost Rainbow Orchid.
Both Eve and Garen met with Years 7 and 9 to talk about writing and illustrating, from their inspirations to the process of writing.
Eve talked us through from her childhood as a little girl running around the garden telling her dog her tales, to her work with children in secondary school and how these experiences shape the writing process and the narratives that we read in her books. Year 9's learnt how taking notes and jotting down ideas from everyday events and even names of the people they meet can inspire a story. A valuable lesson for all that listened was how Eve experimented with different styles of writing before eventually being published, and how she remained determined to be a writer despite rejections from publishers and even teachers that told her that she needed to think of a more realistic career.
Garen, once a student at Imberhorne School, explained the process of his creation 'The Rainbow Orchid', telling us how the process is far more involved than just a collection of doodles. One of his comic books can take 2-3 years to make: from the initial drafts, character development, lists, research, models, then the move from paper to computer, to the eventual polished version that reaches our hands. Garen's advice to any budding illustrators was to keep practicing. He admitted that drawing cars and animals were a weakness for him, but with lots of practice he overcame his difficulties and now draws elephants in all sorts of situations.
And amongst the talks, questions and answers, students had the opportunity to have their copies of Eve's and Garen's fabulous books signed.
Hopefully today will have inspired students to enjoy the experiences that literature has to offer and maybe even encourage the illustrator or writer inside to explore what the world of books has to offer.

Q: Create a polynomial from a list of coefficients First I have to extract coefficients from a polynomial.Then I have to make a polynomial from by given list and show that they are identical. So I tried like this:
f[x_] := 3 x^3 - 7 x^2 + 6;

coefficientlist = Table[Coefficient[f[x], x, i], {i, 0, 3}];(*It also can be do by CoefficientList[]*)

poly = x^Range[0, 3]*coefficientlist // TraditionalForm

But here I got problem to create the polynomial from my coefficientlist. Can Anyone help me to figure out this. Any hints or solution will be appreciated.Thanks in advance.

The Pig & Whistle Tavern
From Humble Beginnings
In 1991 we set out to create a tavern and restaurant with a warm, family-oriented environment offering the best of English pubs and Australian hospitality. Over time we have evolved to meet the demands of locals, regulars and newcomers alike.
Our name was inspired by the long association of the terms "Pig" and "Whistle" with inns and taverns.
Today the Pig & Whistle tells of a charming place to meet with friends & family to enjoy an evening of fine food, drink & song all night long.
Pig & Whistle
Tales from Yore
Long ago, in the old English breweries, the Pig & Whistle was an integral part of the code of conduct for the brewery labourers. A barrel of Guinness was known as "the pig" and the brewery labourers were heard to whistle while they worked in order to make it known that they were actually working – and not (as was the temptation) drinking on the job.
A keg was also known as the pig, and since it was the chef's responsibility to replace the keg in taverns of old, he too whistled to avoid the suspicion that he was sampling the brew. Actually, it's no wonder that the name Pig Whistle has been associated with inns and taverns since the early 16th century.
Take 'a pig' – a Sussex drinking vessel shaped like the animal; add the expression 'wet your whistle' – meaning to have a drink, and there you have it.

The pandemic has shown not all countries see schools as safe
by Agata Andreetto
Brussels (Brussels Morning) The COVID-19 pandemic has proven the biggest disruptor to the education system in history, affecting nearly 1.6 billion learners in more than 190 countries and all continents.
Closures of schools and other learning spaces have impacted 94% of the global student population, up to 99% in low and lower-middle-income countries, UN reports say. National and regional lockdowns have led to a rethinking of learning methods by introducing distance learning, triggering a political debate around the reopening of schools in some European countries.
UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres warned of an education catastrophe, reporting a UNESCO estimate of 24 million students at risk of dropping out.
The pandemic has exacerbated pre-existing educational inequalities by reducing opportunities among the most vulnerable — children, young people and adults — to continue learning.
Worse still, the disruption in education will have far-reaching ramifications. People who were already marginalized now risk further exclusion. The report "Coming Together for Refugee Education" shows that half of the world's refugee children are already out of school. It says that while COVID-19 has impacted children worldwide, refugee children have been particularly disadvantaged. UN figures show that 1.6 billion learners in total have suffered a disruption to their education, including millions of refugees.
On the flip side, approaches have emerged showing how the crisis has stimulated innovation in the education sector with podcasts, massive open online courses and other take-home packages developed to respond to education and training needs. Distance-learning solutions, developed by rapidly responding governments and partners, have buoyed education continuity, including UNESCO's Global Education Coalition.
In Europe, the direst impact the pandemic has had on learning is the disruption of in-person teaching. Ministerial decisions closed schools to stem the spread of the virus, moving schooling online.
Countries' differing levels of digital preparedness have meant forced teachers and trainers had to become digitally literate overnight.
There have also been different responses to schools' reopening, even between states culturally and geographically similar.
Italy between COVID and school discredit
In Italy, schools were the first institutions to close during the first wave of the virus and the last to re-open before the second wave.
The country has suffered notably high infection rates and one of the highest numbers of COVID-19 related deaths.
A major political debate has now ensued between those who maintain schools are a safe and controlled place while others assert the opposite.
In an interview for national television, Education Minister Lucia Azzolina reasserted her commitment to keeping schools open in a safe way.
"Together as Ministry of Education, we collected data on schools", said Azzolina, "Believe me, it was not something we had to do, but I wanted to have it done so that our data could be compared with those collected by the Local Health Authorities (ASL).
"At the beginning of September, we asked the schools' headmasters to collect and provide us with data on COVID cases in their schools and then we had a meeting with the scientific technical committee and the Higher College of Health, after which we agreed that we would forward the data every week to the Higher College of Health to keep the situation under control".
Azzolina praised the safe reopening of schools in September, implementing social distancing rules and making masks mandatory indoors.
School closures end up closing again during the second wave, explained Azzolina because the increase in infections caused challenges for ASLs while tracking processes had failed.
Despite persistent COVID-19 cases and an unrelenting curve, various government ministers have converged on the opinion that schools should reopen on 7 January.
Azzolina also hinted that problems could emerge outside of viral cases if schools remained closed.
"7 January 2021 is a realistic date for the reopening of schools because they were already functioning well in September and October with the new measures", said Azzolina.
"We must not lose a single hour. Education is the engine of the country. There is a deep-seated cultural problem with schools. The problem is that school is not seen as a productive activity. People do not understand that school can act as a social lift, it can improve people's lives, and sometimes it can also save people's lives.
Schools need to regain their centrality, as in other countries where there is no debate about whether schools should be open or closed".
The pivotal role of school in France
France took a different approach and on the eve of the second lockdown in October, it was announced that schools that would remain open.
Education Minister Jean-Michel Blanquer explained that the decision was in view of the "damage" caused by the previous closures and to avoid the risk of pupils dropping out. Schools follow the health protocol's guidance on safe procedures, including social distancing, wearing masks and ventilation for 15 minutes every two hours in classrooms.
Families are also obligated to measure student temperatures before their classes. Any student — or their family member — with a temperature higher than 38° is told to stay at home.
Distance learning via online lessons is only reserved for quarantine or if a whole class or school has been banned from attending in person, which occurs after a minimum of three classroom infections.
In contrast to Italy, the in-person school system has remained central with distance learning, the last resort method.

Marainthirunthe Paarkum Marmam Enna (What is the mystery behind watching me in secret?) is a grim story rooted in reality. It looks to shine the light on the dangerous menace of chainsnatching that has only continued to grow with time. In fact, the team couldn't have come up with a more suitable title for a crime story.
The director's narrative about a family man act out as a crooked with the group, reeks their activities and spy out towards a cop. Initially, the scenes have been portrayed about the chain snatcher lifestyle and how do they work out and in what systematic way the steps will be proceedings had been projected.
In this situation, the chain snatching gang, planned to rob commissioner's wife jewellery and now the situation goes to a high peak.
The commissioner appoint for a special officer to investigate with this issue, Dhruvva was getting as a loophole in the investigation that he had screened on a short film, the girl Kalpana who trust on Dhruvva, now started to detest by her and the inspector explicates about his missed life of Dhruvva.
The innocent guy, works in a gas agency and lives with his mother Saranya. The Dhruvva's mother even ingenuous character that she looks a bride for her son. A show anchor was getting admired by Saranya and they go for the proposal and Dhruvva's married life moves in a beautiful way.
Jeeva (Ramachandran Durairaj), is planning to rob and at that time Dhruvva's wife was killed in a wretched condition. The robber's head Mime Gopi suspect on Dhruvva and understand the plan of Dhruvva and that he is a spy to the police department. Finally, Jeeva was getting brutalized or he had been sent towards the prison by Dhruvva. The film is an evidence of happening in the current affairs and words is being exposed on screen. A lady moves around at midnight on wearing jewellery that is their freedom. Now a days, even in a daytime not able to move with jewellery. The team tested out with an old issue. In the mother eccentric Saranya had tackled the screenplay by her acting. The hero gives his smartness both in outlook and performance. The film starts with a distinctive scenario and ends up with revenge and given in a message.

Q: Default browser is Google Hangouts My default browser is  Google Hangouts and I want to change it to Chrome.

default browser setting

A: As @Kulfy mostly correctly pointed out, there's no NATIVE (but it can be installed) Google Hangouts client. From your screenshot, it lists Firefox very clearly as the default web browser. I suspect there was an issue with the version of Chrome you installed, although I don't see how that would happen. Try reinstalling chrome, making sure to use the latest STABLE release. If that doesn't fix it, try rebooting and see what happens.

"In the Gulf of Siam, just north of Koh Samui, is Koh Phangan, an island that's highly recognisable due to the distinctive limestone karsts that protrude from its turquoise waters."
Phangan has somewhat of a split personality. Although notorious for the ever-popular Full Moon Parties frequented by thousands of backpackers each month, the stunning island offers much more than all-night parties, and shouldn't be dismissed by those looking to get away from it all.
The festivities take place at Haad Rin beach on the southern point of the island, and the area is populated with clubs and bars. Further north however, lies the true spirit of Phangan – dense inland jungles and sleepy secluded bays just perfect for watching the lazy tide roll in.
Calm waters, ultra-soft sands and pretty palms; Haad Salad is a beautiful sheltered cove up on the northern coast of the island. Locally translated as 'pirate beach', the shallow bay was so named as in days gone by it was inaccessible to the Thai navy, making it a favourite spot for smugglers to hide away within. Today it's more likely to be used by chilled out beachgoers, each searching for their own spot of paradise to treasure. A handful of back beach bars offer a place to enjoy the sunrise with a long drink.
One of the best beaches in Koh Phangan, and arguably in the whole of Thailand, is Bottle Beach. Whether you travel via relaxing long tail boat or opt to embark on a tough jungle trek, what waits for you is a secluded sandy setting where you can get away from it all.
Venturing out to the natural mountain pools on the way to Ban Tai is highly recommended when visiting the island. The cool, fresh water runs off the mountains and provides visitors a wonderfully natural place in which to bathe. A refreshing dip is especially enjoyable when the weather is hot and humid.
"Hidden amidst swaying palm trees on a secluded white sandy beach with clear turquoise water, you will find Buri Rasa …"
"Santhiya is an enriching destination supported by unique accommodation and facilities. …"
"Tucked discreetly amidst the towering coconut palms of picturesque Koh Phangan, lies a unique tropical haven, Anantara Rasananda Koh Phangan …"


Much like in fashion and other creative forms of expression, graphic design has experienced a few revivals of old, with a few modern updates to boot. But fear not, because in addition to these vintage trends, 2018 is also brimming with novel methods to keep those future-oriented minds happy. The colorful world of Visual Design is bringing some awe inspiring trends for 2018 and 2019.
The spirit of "less is more" is still in vogue even in the realm of graphic design, but our love for finer, soulful techniques is once more rekindled with a few oldies with a contemporary twist. Think minimalism and vintage having a party together.
We included some awesome resources from Creative Market for you to create your own awe inspiring designs.
If you've seen any of the most recent work presented by fashion designers, you must have noticed a tendency to go back in time to enrich the canvas of the present moment. We're talking about a shift towards using creamy hues such as delicate aqua or girly pinks in combination with darker undertones for effect.
You can also expect a greater focus on neon tones that were so loved in the '80s and the '90s, and paired with shapes and fonts that mimic this era's preferences, they are a match made in heaven for visual thrill. If you're in need for more inspiration, look no further than the likes of Oscar de la Renta for ingenious use of these particular shades.
Modern brands continuously look for ways to increase customer engagement, and it has become apparent that this can be achieved even through minute details that are part of your visual presentation. Take for instance, microinteractions, the latest trend in graphic and visual design to bring details to life and turn a mundane experience into a memorable, emotion-evoking one.
This is where minimalism truly shines, as using simplistic representations to attract attention will be a 2018 designer's gem, whether it's a simple home page button or a fun little animation representing an action.
Authentic is a key descriptor of storytelling efforts in the world of graphic design, so it is no wonder that the Master Course in Visual Design at Raffles Milano underlines the importance of using reality to inspire, challenge, and create. No matter how huge those Instagram filters have become and will continue to grow, brands are about to return to the use of real-life images to connect with their audience.
Posing, staged photos, and fake naturals are about to be abandoned for the sake of unfiltered life at its best and boldest. Even a touch of blurry imperfection is more than acceptable, since it makes the composition more relatable than your typical "awkward cringe plus handshake" photos.
Another passé that's anything but will be the use of simplistic, graphic, sepia-toned illustrations for product packaging in particular. Some compare it to minimalism, but despite its deceptively simple application of a single hue and two-dimensional drawings, this design trend is more a reflection of a new mindset focused on pure and natural.
That is why this design approach is especially popular among brands that celebrate their all-natural ingredient lists, but it's by no means limited to this niche. Adding a note of nostalgia and transparency, this retro drawing trend appeals to emotions and allows the brand to establish a connection with a particular audience, such as the Millennials.
A versatile pool of optical illusions, dreamy blends, and surreal effects, using the technique of double exposure is not a new trend, but a growing one for 2018. It's a perfect strategy to appeal to our imagination, to inspire contemplation, and even a masterful use of double exposure in dual tones can turn a regular design into a work of art.
While the classic duotone will be somewhat pushed aside to make room for more playful expressions with double lighting, and dual coloring in shadows, using duotone double exposure will aim to tap into our fantasy cravings unlike any other designer technique.
It appears that this is the year of reinventing past models to fit the needs of the modern brand and the modern human. However, in its essence, graphic design of 2018 looks back to its beginnings with more respect and appreciation than ever, once again ready to elevate them to a new level of visionary.
Lillian Connors is a design aficionado, ever so keen on exploring fresh ideas to change the visual aspect of the things that surround her.

The market remained predominantly negative throughout the week, losing 363pts over its course. The continuation of FATF's gray-listing put a cap on the index's performance with the market being largely divided over the potential outcome. The index's negative performance largely emanated from heavy-weights namely Oil & Gas, and commercial banks. The cement sector continued to perform after witnessing a sharp recovery in its half-yearly results, emerging as the week's top performing sector.
KASB Market View
KSE – 100 witnessed a sharp decline today closing down 0.6% to 45,593 points. The index started jittery and was further compounded by Supreme Court's decision to not hold Senate elections via open balloting but traceable votes. Although government & opposition both touted this as a "win", the investors remained uncertain of the elections outcome & government's ability to legislate structural reforms.
We expect the flattish trend to continue over next few days until Senate outcome is determined. Majority seats for PTI should be taken as a continuation of positive momentum.

Q: Trigger - Calculate area of a layer inside feature by changing the inner layer Working with PostGIS database and QGIS, I have two polygons layers, an external with land lots (lotes) and an internal with building area (areaconstruida).
In the "lotes" layer, I need a field in attribute table that calculate the building area inside the land lot.
I'm tying to create a trigger function that re-calculate the building area inside affected land lots every time the buildings layer is changed.
Before run the trigger, I tried some select in SQL to ensure-me that my code was correct.
     select *
            from
            (select lotes.cod_lote, sum(st_area) from public.lotes,

(select lotes.cod_lote, ST_area(st_intersection(lotes.geom,areaconstruida.geom))
            from public.areaconstruida, public.lotes
            WHERE ST_intersects(lotes.geom,
    (select geom from public.areaconstruida where public.areaconstruida.id=3789)))
    AS TAB1
    -- TAB 1 returns, for all features in lotes that intersects an especific building
feature, the area of intersection with all buildings in project

                WHERE lotes.cod_lote=TAB1.cod_lote
                group by lotes.cod_lote) as TAB2
    -- TAB2 returns, for all features in lotes that intersects an especific
building feature, the sum of interception areas with the buildings layer
                WHERE TAB2.cod_lote='00309SE00006'
-- Trying the result of an specific parcel lot

from this code I got expected result, with the total building area inside the land lot tested.
But I'm
unsuccessful trying to activate the trigger
For the Trigger, I replaced the "public.areaconstruida.id=3789" for "NEW.geom", once I want to change the values of land lots affected by new or modified features in the buildings layers
and replaced the WHERE TAB2.cod_lote='00309SE00006' for WHERE TAB2.cod_lote=lotes.cod_lote
Resulting in this code:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION area_constr2()
RETURNS trigger AS
$BODY$
BEGIN
UPDATE public.lotes
SET lotes.areaconstr = TAB2.sum
from
(select lotes.cod_lote, sum(st_area) from public.lotes, (select lotes.cod_lote, ST_area(st_intersection(lotes.geom,areaconstruida.geom))
from public.areaconstruida, public.lotes, NEW
WHERE ST_intersects(lotes.geom, (select geom from NEW.geom))) AS TAB1
WHERE lotes.cod_lote=TAB1.cod_lote
group by lotes.cod_lote) as TAB2
where TAB2.cod_lote=lotes.cod_lote;
END;

$BODY$
LANGUAGE plpgsql;

CREATE TRIGGER area_constr2 BEFORE INSERT OR UPDATE ON public."areaconstruida"
 FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE area_constr2();

The query runs normally, but when I try to change something in buildings geometry on QGIS, results in errors.
This question is similar to this topic: (Trigger - Calculate area of a layer inside feature) from yesterday, but now I'm changing the inner layer, and not the outer layer.
Edit: I tried another code to re-calculate the building area of all land lots, instead of only affected ones.
Of course, it is expected that it demands long time to run.
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION area_constr2()
RETURNS trigger AS
$BODY$
BEGIN
UPDATE public.lotes
SET areaconstr = (SELECT T2.SUM
FROM (select TAB1.cod_lote, sum(st_area)
from public.lotes,
(select public.lotes.cod_lote, ST_area(st_intersection(public.lotes.geom,public.areaconstruida.geom))
            from public.areaconstruida, public.lotes
            WHERE ST_intersects(public.lotes.geom, public.areaconstruida.geom))
    AS TAB1
                WHERE lotes.cod_lote=TAB1.cod_lote
group by TAB1.cod_lote) AS T2
WHERE T2.cod_lote=lotes.cod_lote);

RETURN public.lotes;
END;

$BODY$
LANGUAGE plpgsql;

CREATE TRIGGER area_constr2 BEFORE INSERT OR UPDATE ON public."areaconstruida"
 FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE area_constr2();

It runs in QGIS and takes about 15 seconds, but no changes at all occours.

Donald Trump lost no time Sunday responding to a satirical Boston Globe front page about a hypothetical Trump presidency and the blistering editorial that it was attached to.
"How about that stupid Boston Globe? It's worthless, sold for a dollar," Trump said at a rally Sunday in Rochester, N.Y.
"They pretended Trump is the president and they made up — the whole front page is a make-believe story, which is really no different from the whole paper. … The whole thing is made up," Trump said according to The Hill.

But a journalist at the Globe told TheWrap that the idea for the satirical page wasn't hard to come by.
Earlier in the day, Boston Globe editorial page editor Ellen Clegg said, "The Globe's editorial board decided to take Donald Trump at his word — that he's going to do what he says he'll do if he becomes president. … It became clear that the best way to handle his vision was through political satire, a rich tradition in journalism."
There was the expected reader reaction, Clegg said. Globe editors have been "interacting with scores of readers — they're calling, tweeting and emailing. It's safe to say not everyone agrees with us, but that's the mission of an editorial page: to prompt conversation and debate."

Online invoicing enhances your company's invoicing process by speeding up the payment schedule and by improving customer satisfaction.
Created in collaboration with software company Basware Plc, PlanMill E-invoice is available immediately and can be implemented quickly.
Finnish company PlanMill Ltd launches PlanMill E-invoice, an online invoicing solution that efficiently enables the automation of the entire invoicing process within a company.
This cost-effective tool (Finvoice format) especially aimed at small and medium-sized companies, is seamlessly integrated into PlanMill's 'software as a service' (SaaS) ERP product, enabling significant savings in both time and money.
The service model developed jointly by PlanMill and Basware (Maventa is also supported as service provider) enhances a company's invoicing procedures and minimises the time spent on invoicing. Invoices are created automatically in PlanMill from operative information that is updated daily. The push of a button in PlanMill simultaneously creates the invoice from this information and transfers the invoice directly both to the client as an online invoice. Invoices can also be transfered to the sending company's bookkeeping system either as Finvoices or in system specific format using our Financial connectors.
'Online invoicing enhances your company's invoicing process by speeding up the payment schedule and by improving customer satisfaction. In addition, sending online invoices decreases manual work, as the invoices are received directly in the customer's invoice processing system. Unnecessary printing and mailing functions can be avoided, and the environment is preserved,' Thomas Hood, PlanMill's CEO, describes the benefits created by the system.
'This is the breakthrough year for online invoicing. We have seen how large organisations are demanding online invoices from their suppliers. Our co-operation with PlanMill also provides PlanMill's customers with a flexible transition to electronic invoicing,' says Timo Aarvala, Director at Basware Plc.
According to a survey by Basware Plc, more than half of organisations feel that the greatest obstacle to online invoicing becoming more common is uncertainty about which clients are capable of receiving electronic invoices. For 39% of companies, the biggest challenge is created by the current invoicing system not supporting sending of online invoices. The open answers submitted in the survey suggest that haste and lack of resources also affect the finance departments and slow down the implementation of online invoicing.
With the help of PlanMill's e-invoice service, both the sender and the recipient of an invoice can completely automate their invoice processing. The service processes the invoice in electronic format (Finvoice) and transfers it to the invoice processing system or to a printing service, according to the receiver's choice.
PlanMill E-invoice is a monitored service which ensures that the online invoices are delivered quickly and securely to the customers through a single interface. An online invoice can contain images and attachments, similar to conventional invoice printed on paper.

A Salve for the Soul: Gypsy Punk's Gogol Bordello Brings Communal Music to 9:30 Club
December 6, 2019 /in Featured, Music /by Michael Coleman
Anyone who has witnessed the unbridled exuberance of a Gogol Bordello show knows that the gypsy punk dance party is an experience unlike any in modern live music.
If you're in DC over the holidays, this is your chance to see the rowdy extravaganza. Gogol Bordello, led by joyously charismatic Ukrainian frontman Eugene Hütz and featuring several special guests, will rock the 9:30 Club on December 30 and 31.
"We're bringing a celebration," Hütz promised during a phone interview with On Tap from his home in lower Manhattan. "That's our vibe. It's a collaboration with our friends. We're bringing our gypsy punk vibes. [Rapper] Marty Baller is bringing authentic hip-hop vibes. We're also coming with friends from [dub/rock group] Dub Trio, whom we've shared several tours with in the past. We're making a collaboration that people will remember. We have a lot of creative spirits. That's how we grow."
Now in its 21st year as a band, Gogol Bordello has always tried to stretch and grow in new musical directions – and 2020 is no different. Hütz, especially inspired by hip-hop in recent years, is dropping a solo album next March exploring that inspiration while remaining rooted in his eclectic, international style of music-making.
"The times bring new influences," Hütz explained. "Your core remains the same, but I'm always curious about what's new on the streets, in the clubs and at the festivals. Besides exploring new sounds within the band, the solo record is something that kind of bubbled up on its own. It's my own take on urban music."
Not surprisingly, Hütz – a longtime darling of New York City's cutting-edge artistic set – has recruited some top-tier talent to help out on the solo record.
"It's really cool collaborating with friends I've made along the way like Tim Armstrong of Rancid, Karen O from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Marty Baller," he explained enthusiastically. "I find hip-hop music right now particularly inspiring. I've always been a fan, but I've come back to it. Hip-hop is very special to me."
While hip-hop may hold a unique appeal for Hütz, his legendary band's musical DNA is rooted in punk rock. Hütz said early in his career, he was mesmerized by Iggy Pop's theatrics and showmanship, and he incorporated that physical aesthetic into his own show.
"Iggy is one of my mentors," Hütz said, noting that he's played on live bills with him several times. "If not for Iggy, the whole school of stage performance in rock 'n' roll would not be nearly as swashbuckling as it is. The whole idea of being very poetic but very athletic and physical at the same time – it takes a very singular kind of individual to be able to pull it off. Creating that synthesis and storytelling, and delivering it in an athletic and Dionysian way, is a special way of performing. Even as a kid, I took my initial start from Iggy. He's amazing. He's a hero."
Closer to the nation's capital, Hütz singled out DC punk pioneers Fugazi as another key influence.
"They had the cream-of-the-crop kind of radical art sound," Hütz said. "When I heard them, I was like 'Yeah! That's my kind of music.' I was bewitched by that. Also, I discovered Bad Brains [another legendary DC punk band] through Fugazi, and then go-go music."
It's no secret that Hütz's home country has loomed large in the impeachment proceedings consuming Washington this fall. However, the loquacious artist – perhaps wisely – declined to weigh in, except to say that Gogol Bordello's communal music is designed to be a salve for the soul. That might be just what politics-weary DC needs to usher in a new year.
"When we all get to dance around the fire together – metaphorically or not metaphorically speaking, because the show gets quite fiery – there is nothing else quite like it," Hütz said with a laugh.
"My job is to bring joy, energy and fresh vibes into the air [and] help people recharge their energy to deal with the rest of the world. That's what I get from art and music. Everybody around the world has their own shit to deal with, and day-to-day we need joy. Hopefully, we can create a situation where people can recharge for a couple of hours."
Catch Hütz with the rest of Gogol Bordello and special guests on Monday, December 30 (doors at 7 p.m., tickets $35) or Tuesday, December 31 (doors at 9 p.m., tickets $75) at 9:30 Club. Learn more about the gypsy punk band at www.gogolbordello.com.

You have either been granted a parenting order by the courts or negotiated with your former partner to be the primary caregiver. It's more unusual for dads to be primary caregivers than it is for moms, so take pride that you're blazing a trail for dads everywhere! As the primary caregiver, you're in charge of your kids. Whenever you have to make a decision about your family, keep in mind that the kids come first.
How do you look after yourself in all this?
How will you handle contact arrangements with your former partner? How often will your children see your former partner's family?
Where will you find the money for mortgage payments or rent, food, clothes and school uniforms, school fees, doctor's visits, transport, school supplies, extracurricular activities, and sports fees? Will you work, or receive welfare or child support payments?
How much time will you have for paid employment? How will you juggle your children's school and sports schedules?
How are you going to sort out life with your children if you have a new partner?
At times it may seem daunting to be a single dad, but plenty of single moms are out there looking after children and doing a bang-up job. A dad can do just as good a job as a mom! It helps to have a routine and make sure your kids know what's happening. Enlisting family to give you some space or help with pick-ups or babysitting from time to time also helps.
Even though you're not partners in a romantic sense, you and your children's mother are still partners in a parenting sense. Whatever happened during the marriage or partnership that caused the breakdown and separation, it's time to let go of the negative feelings — the hurt, the resentment, the anger — and get on with raising your children as best as you can.
Your children need their mother around. Although she doesn't live with your children anymore, she can see them all the time and have a close, loving bond with them.
Just like bedtime and dinnertime, you might like to make mom time a daily ritual. Mom could call at the same time each night to say good night or read a bedtime story on the phone. If she lives nearby, she could come over for half an hour at the same time each night to tuck the children in.
Keep your children's mother up to date with your children's progress at school, any special events that are coming up, or parent–teacher evenings she should attend.
Keep your negative comments about your kids' mom to yourself — bad-mouthing her to your children is not okay. They love their mother and have trust in her, and eroding those feelings helps no one.
Realize your former partner may be feeling inadequate or irresponsible as a mother. Appreciate that this arrangement is probably quite tough for her.
Share pictures, stories, artwork, and school successes with your former partner so she still feels a part of what the children are up to when she's not there.
Try not to be too rigid with contact arrangements. Go easy on your ex-partner if she's a little late. At the beginning she may be a bit nervous or unsure of how her relationship with her kids is going to work out. Make sure the kids are ready to go when she arrives and pack their bags so she's not caught out without diapers or sippy cups.
As the primary caregiver of the children, you may require some (or loads) of help and assistance. You shouldn't hold back from making use of what is available.
In some cases, courts can require you to complete online parenting courses during the divorce process. Websites such as positiveparenting.com can provide you with a list of acceptable courses. Fatherhood.gov can help you find local programs in your state as well as provide other sources of information that can help you be the best parent possible.
Contact the appropriate government department to see whether you're eligible for any benefits or tax credits. The IRS website can give you information on whether or not you qualify, based on your income and other factors.
Just knowing you're part of a wider network of dads raising their kids alone and well is invaluable. It's also really healthy for your kids to know they're not the only ones dealing with mom and dad being apart. If parents' groups or dads' groups are close to where you are, join in so you can network with other parents.
The end of a relationship can bring up some personal issues. You may realize you need help with anger management, self-esteem, or managing stress. Don't procrastinate — if you feel you could benefit from a coach, therapist, or other specialist, pick up the phone or search the Internet. Your kids need you to be the best dad you can be, so if that means getting a bit of help, just do it.
Despite everything that has happened, spending time with your children is still generally great fun. But you may encounter some times when it isn't so much fun. When you've had a rough day in the office and come home to bills in the mail and children who turn up their noses at their dinner, just stop for a moment and clear your head. Take a look at your children's faces. Remember how much you love them and how they make you smile and laugh. Your children are worth every bit of extra effort in the end.
Your children will bring you more joy than frustration if you're open to it.
Play and interact with your children as much as you can. Read books together, give them lots of hugs, and let yourself be a bit silly with them. Children can learn so much from an involved and caring father.
If you're an older dad, constant playing can take a toll on you, so get other family members involved, set up play dates, and share the fun, while you spend time with adults watching the children have fun. Actually, this is highly recommended for parents of all ages!

The War of the Worlds is a 1953 American Technicolor science fiction film from Paramount Pictures, produced by George Pal, directed by Byron Haskin, and starring Gene Barry and Ann Robinson. The film is a loose adaptation of the H. G. Wells novel of the same name, and is the first of five feature film adaptations of his famous 1898 novel concerning an invasion of Earth from the planet Mars. Large meteorite-spaceships come crashing down all over the Earth, disgorging Manta Ray-shaped Martian war machines armed with fearsome heat-ray and "skeleton" beam energy weapons; they slowly begin the route of humanity wherever they move.
