New updates as of December 31, 2020
Restaurants and licensed establishments in areas of Halifax Regional Municipality and Hants County can reopen for dine-in service starting January 4, 2021.
They must follow the provincewide restrictions, including ending service by 10 p.m. and closing by 11 p.m. They can continue takeout, delivery and drive-thru service with no restrictions.
Premier Stephen McNeil and Dr. Robert Strang, Nova Scotia's chief medical officer of health, announced today, Dec. 16, that current restrictions in areas of Halifax Regional Municipality (HRM) and Hants County are extended, and new restrictions will be in place provincewide over the holidays to curb the spread of COVID-19.
Today's restrictions update:
-- the current restrictions in areas of Halifax Regional Municipality and Hants County are extended until 11:59 p.m. on Dec. 20
-- the closure of restaurants and licensed establishments for dine-in service in these areas is extended until 11:59 p.m. on Jan. 10; they can continue to offer takeout and delivery service
-- the Halifax casino will also remain closed until 11:59 p.m. on Jan. 10

-- retail and shopping mall rules currently in place for areas of HRM and Hants County will extend to the entire province, including operating at 25 per cent of their capacity; their food courts can remain open with public health measures in place including physical distance between tables
The province is working with the Restaurant Association of Nova Scotia on a pilot project for an app that dine-in restaurants and licensed establishments can use to collect patrons' contact information for contact tracing. This will help standardize collection practices, ensure privacy of information, and reduce the burden on businesses. It will also improve public health's ability to contact patrons as needed. The Department of Business is giving the association up to $100,000 for the project.
New updates as of November 24, 2020
New restrictions will come into force at 12:01 a.m. on Thursday, Nov. 26, and continue for two weeks until midnight Dec. 9, with a possibility of extension.
Nova Scotians are being asked to avoid non-essential travel:

-- to other Atlantic provinces
The following will apply to the parts of western and central HRM:
-- restaurants and licenced establishments are closed for in-person dining but may provide take-out or delivery
-- wineries, distilleries and breweries cannot hold tastings or in-person dining and must follow retail rules in their stores (delivery and curbside pickup allowed)

Q: PHP insert with array values,tablename I am struggling with a PHP insert statement. I want it to insert data into the database by using array_keys($values) and array_values($values).
I have tried to work out how I can do this and so far I have this code in my insert and have also included my index page. I need to do it without changing the index page as it is a challenge I have to complete. I have analysed the index page and need to somehow make the function work with that to insert data into my database from the PHP insert command.
I also wonder if there's a way to wrap the PDO connection into one statement which I can use for this and other functions.
Insert Function
  <?php
function insert(array $values, $tablename)
{

    //cosntruct sql statment

    $sql = "INSERT INTO $tablename $values";

    //pick apart vaules

   //this line fetches the result set and fetch assoc to prevent multiple rows beign fetched
    $ResultSet = dbconnect()->query($sql);

   //returns the results
   return $ResultSet;

    //array keys and array vaules

    //connection

    // checks results

}

?>

Part of the Index page:
 if(isset($_POST['table']))
    {
        $tableName = $_POST['table'];
    }
    if(isset($_POST['insert']))
    {
        $values = array();
        $tableName = $_POST['tablename'];

        foreach($_POST as $key => $value)
        {
            if(!empty($value) && ($value != "Submit") && ($key != "insert") && ($key != "table") && ($key != "tablename"))
            {
                $values[$key] = $value;
            }
     }
     $count = insert($values, $tableName);
    }

Note that I am quite new at coding. Any suggestions?

A: try this, it works fine for me. You just have to pass the name of the table and an associative array which has the name of the columns as keys.
public function insert($table, $data)
{

    $query='INSERT INTO '.$table.' (';
    foreach($data as $key => $value)
    {
        $query .= $key.',';
    }
    $query = substr($query, 0, -1);
    $query .= ') VALUES (';
    foreach($data as $key => $value)
    {
        $query .= ':'.$key.',';
    }
    $query = substr($query, 0, -1);
    $query .= ');';

    $insert = $this->db->prepare($query);
    $insert->execute($data);

}

NHC tracks 'uncommon' January disturbance in Atlantic
by: Nathaniel Rodriguez
(WFLA) — Nearly two months after hurricane season ended, a non-tropical disturbance has popped up in the Atlantic.
The National Hurricane Center was tracking a low-pressure system centered in the northwest Atlantic Ocean Monday.
In a 10:05 a.m. weather outlook, the NHC said the non-tropical system was producing "storm-force winds" about 300 miles north of Bermuda.
Storms expected to return mid-week
Forecasters said that while the system appeared to be producing thunderstorms at its center, it is stuck in a cold air mass that can slow its development.
"It is uncommon this time of year to have a tropical system develop, but it does happen from time to time," meteorologist Amanda Holly, with Nexstar's WLFA, said. "This is a perfect situation where a non-tropical area of low pressure associated with a cold front moved into the Atlantic waters. The system is producing showers and storms like a tropical system would, and sometimes, these systems can gain tropical characteristics if they spend enough time over those warmer waters."
However, the NHC said the system is heading northeast into colder waters, which makes it unlikely that it will develop into a subtropical or tropical cyclone. As of Monday morning, there was a zero percent chance of development.
"Even if it did, there would be no impacts to Florida, and the impacts over the open waters would remain the same: strong winds and high seas near the storm system," Holly said. "The last time there was a January Atlantic storm was in 2016 when Hurricane Alex formed as it moved away from the Bahamas out into the open Atlantic."
There are 136 days left before June 1, the beginning of hurricane season.

This Is What It's Really Like To Be A Pregnant Man
Kasandra Brabaw
Trystan Reese and Biff Chaplow exploded onto the parenting scene a couple years ago after the couple fought to adopt Chaplow's niece and nephew, who were living in a traumatic home. Their journey through court hearings and custody battles was chronicled on the popular parenting podcast The Longest Shortest Time, and Reese and Chaplow were dubbed the "accidental gay parents."
Now, after gaining custody of their son and daughter, Reese and Chaplow are planning to add a third child to their family. Reese, who is a transgender man, is pregnant. In a new episode of the podcast, he and Chaplow talk about their decision to have a baby, going through a miscarriage, finding out Reese was pregnant, telling their families, and how other people react to seeing a pregnant man.
This is their story.
Just a preview from today's pregnancy shoot!
A post shared by Biff And I (@rebelprincetrys) on Apr 14, 2017 at 6:02pm PDT
On preparing his body for pregnancy:
In order to get pregnant, Reese had to stop taking testosterone, which meant that his periods started coming back for the first time in 10 years. But even after months of trying and carefully tracking his cycle, Reese wasn't pregnant. He and Chaplow started to get discouraged, but while many cisgender women who are trying to get pregnant might feel the need to blame their body for failed attempts, Reese was found a way to be much kinder to his body.
"I had to work so hard to feel great about my body that I didn't ever blame it on on my body," he said. "I just sort of thought maybe this isn't meant to be. Maybe we learned what we were supposed to learn from this experience and and we need to just sort of accept where we are and this beautiful family we have which is not a consolation prize at all.
And one morning I woke up and I felt really, really bad. Like I had a fever bad, like lying on the tiles of the bathroom floor because how cool they are — feels good on your face kind of bad.
And I randomly grabbed one of the tests and it came back positive. And I was like oh my god this is actually happening."
On telling Chaplow that he was pregnant:
"I had to go wake him up and I was like 'ah I'm pregnant.'
He was a little bit sleepy but he was just like 'I told you so.' So that's still, like, romantic. He said 'I'm really excited to start planning for you. But like is it OK with you if I go back to sleep now?'"
32 weeks today!!!
A post shared by Biff And I (@rebelprincetrys) on May 18, 2017 at 6:48pm PDT
On going to the doctor's office:
Reese told The Longest Shortest Time that he and Chaplow were anxious for their six-week appointment, when pregnant people get their first ultrasound, and on the week of the appointment he called the clinic to make sure his doctors were aware and prepared to treat a pregnant dad.
"I can feel someone looking at my face and searching for the remnants of womanhood. They kind of squint their eyes a little bit and I can tell they're trying to, like, take away my beard. They're trying to transition me in their heads."
Triple-checking that this clinic was prepared to treat transgender people, though, paid off.
"There hasn't been an ounce of transphobia from anyone I have come in contact with," he said. "I expected to have to show extra ID, them to have to call their manager, all kinds of things and none of that happened. I went to go give blood at the phlebotomy lab, checking in with the person at the desk and she would type in my Medical Records ID and she be like 'OK you're here for the six weeks along blood test. oh six weeks along. Congratulations you look good.'
And I'm sitting there and I'm like 'did you not notice that I am a man?'"
On telling his mom:
After ultrasound, Reese wrote an email to his mom to break the news.
"I didn't know what her response was going to be and I didn't want to put her on the spot with the expectation that she was going to fawn and gush," he said. "I wrote like five or six drafts of the email just to make sure that I got it right. And she wrote back right away. 'Congratulations I know you're going to be great dads. There's no reason why only screwed up people should have kids.'"
A post shared by Biff And I (@rebelprincetrys) on Mar 19, 2016 at 9:28am PDT
On telling their kids:
Their son, Riley, is happy to have a new baby coming to their family soon, but also worried about what kids at school might say if they knew his dad was pregnant.
"He tried to ask us if we would pretend like the baby was just our cousin that we were babysitting," Reese said. "[For him] it's literally like just anything to have this not be our baby that my dad gave birth to. So, you know, we're happy to let him protect himself however he needs, but there is a limit. And pretending that this baby is not ours is where the line is drawn."
Their daughter, Hailey, on the other hand, is overjoyed to tell anyone and everyone.
"She has told everybody in her class that her dad is transgender and is having a baby and she's going to be a big sister. So we've kind of gotten to see it play out."
Halfway done cooking a person!!!
A post shared by Biff And I (@rebelprincetrys) on Mar 8, 2017 at 7:33pm PST
On people's reactions to seeing a pregnant man & keeping himself safe:
Safety is a big worry for all transgender people, but especially for a visibly queer and pregnant man, so Reese has figured out how to protect himself while in public.
"Because it's still freezing cold in Portland, I'm able to layer. So with like a chunky sweater, a long open coat, and then like a drapey scarf, you cannot tell at all."
But the one place Reese is really public about his pregnancy is online. He posted a video explaining why he, as a transgender man, would even want to be pregnant on Facebook and got a lot of feedback — both positive and negative.
"Everything from a lady upon learning that I am a trans person who's pregnant saying that I look like a circus freak, and much worse things than that have been said to me and about me, all the way to trans people who are angry that I even made a video to begin with because I shouldn't have to explain myself."
On how cool it is to be pregnant:
"It's been really awesome. And that's like not cool to say," Reese said. "You're supposed to like complain about your ankles or whatever. But I've been having a blast being pregnant. Feeling the movements has been so cool. The kids every night will read stories to my belly. You know, it's just been really awesome."

Yankees	Carlos Beltran is no longer on the team. Of the remaining players, guess who will likely end up leading the current Yankees in home runs? It could be either Starlin Castro (19) or Didi Gregorius (17). Sure, it could be Brian McCann, who also has 17, but this is pretty fun from the "who saw that one coming?" files.

5 reasons the Red Sox can win the World Series
FOXSports Logo FOXSports
Chris Bahr
Boston is trying to tap into its worst-to-first formula from 2013 to win its fourth World Series in the past 12 years. There certainly isn't a hotter team, as the Red Sox's late-season 11-game winning streak not only has allowed them to pull away in the AL East but also has put them in contention for home-field advantage throughout the postseason.The mix of veteran leadership and youthful zeal is just one reason this team is so dangerous.

– and chances are good that the Red Sox rank at the top of the charts. That includes slugging percentage (.467), on-base percentage (.350), batting average (.285) and runs per game (5.52).The lineup, which features three 100-RBI and three 100-run players, has no weak spot, as even the sometimes-No. 9 hitter (Jackie Bradley Jr.) is an All-Star with 26 homers.The scores get tighter in October, but it's hard to imagine that Mookie Betts, Hanley Ramirez, David Ortiz, Dustin Pedroia, Xander Bogaerts, etc., will suddenly slump.

Rick Porcello is an unexpected ace
Porcello has been practically unbeatable, especially at Fenway Park (13-1, 2.88 ERA -- and that lone loss was a 1-0 score). Although he's been strong since the start of the season, the 22-game winner is finishing stronger than arguably any other starter in the majors, with 12 consecutive starts of at least six innings and three or fewer runs.Porcello was a major disappointment last season (9-15, 4.92 ERA) but has blossomed into a No. 1 starter in his second season in Boston.
The man that Boston paid to be its ace underwhelmed for much of the season, but the left-hander finishing with a flurry. Aside from a clunker of a no-decision against the Yankees on Sept. 17 that snapped a seven-start winning streak, Price has been in top form with has a 2.86 ERA and a strikeout per inning since Aug. 12.And Price has another shot at redemption – a chance to silence his critics after yet another inexplicably poor postseason in 2015 raised his career playoff ERA to 5.12.
Their improved bullpen features a lights-out closer
The Red Sox's relief corps was their biggest flaw for most of the season, but that weakness suddenly became a strength in September. So far this month, Boston's bullpen leads the majors with a 0.96 ERA and is second in WHIP (0.99). The return of setup man Koji Uehara was a big factor, and it helped establish defined roles.The one thing that hasn't changed is that Craig Kimbrel has been dominant in the ninth inning, converting 30 of his 32 save chances this season and striking out 82 batters in 51 innings.
The David Ortiz factor
Big Papi got his wish: one more postseason run. Ortiz's October exploits are well-documented, from the walk-offs in 2004 to the World Series MVP honors in 2013. He's a .295/.409/.553 hitter with 17 homers and 60 RBI in 82 career postseason games and has the opportunity to add a final chapter to his postseason legacy.Given the way Ortiz has crushed the ball during the regular season (37 homers and an MLB-best 48 doubles and 1.039 OPS in an MVP-caliber year at age 40), there's no reason to expect anything less than another clutch performance when the stakes are highest.

Conservation advocates applauded Friday following a vote at the 19th meeting of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species in Panama, at which delegates from 183 countries and the European Union voted for sweeping protections for shark species.
"This landmark vote marks the culmination of a decade of shark conservation progress within CITES."
The resolution will greatly reduce the fishing industry's ability to contribute to the shark fin trade. About $500 million worth of fins are sold each year to produce shark fin soup—a delicacy popular in wealthy households in Japan, Hong Kong, and Taiwan—with just over two pounds selling for $1,000.
The 19th Conference of the Parties of CITES voted to protect 54 more shark species, including tiger, bull, and blue sharks—some of the most targeted species for the fin trade. Six hammerhead shark species will also be protected.
The species will now be listed in the CITES Appendix II, barring trade unless it is tightly regulated and sustainable. The listing is for species that are not yet threatened with extinction but which could rapidly become more endangered without strong controls.
Louis Aguirre, a Florida-based journalist focused on environmental issues, hailed the "strongest protections ever for sharks."
Shirley Binder, Panamanian delegate to the conference, told Agence France Presse that up to 90% of sharks in the fin market will now be protected.
"This landmark vote marks the culmination of a decade of shark conservation progress within CITES," said Luke Warwick, director of shark and ray conservation for the Wildlife Conservation Society, in a statement. "Now, finally, the deeply unsustainable shark fin trade will be fully regulated."
The vote signified that members of CITES "are beginning to grasp the scale of the challenge required to confront the crisis facing the natural world," said Matthew Collis, deputy vice president for conservation at the International Fund for Animal Welfare.
"Over a million species are at risk of extinction if we do not change the way we treat wildlife," said Collis. "Overexploitation of species, including through international trade, is a key contributing factor to the decline of many species."
At the two-week summit, CITES member countries also voted for new protections for the guitarfish ray, glass frogs, crocodiles, and some turtle species.

Statelessness in Italy: What do the Italian Law and Court say?
The Decree of September 3rd, 2022 of the Ordinary Court of Rome recognized the Italian citizenship for de facto statelessness to a child born in Italy in 2018 from a Paraguayan mother and unknown father.
At the time of her birth, the child's mother asked the Paraguayan Embassy for her daughter's recognition as a Paraguayan citizen, and for her passport to be issued. However, she received a negative response.
According to art. 146 of the Paraguayan Constitution, are of natural Paraguayan nationality: "The children of Paraguayan mother or father born abroad, when they reside in the Republic of Paraguay in a permanent way".
Thus, the transfer to Paraguay would have been the only possible way for the child to obtain Paraguayan citizenship from her mother. Moreover, being the daughter of an unknown father, the child had not been able to acquire any other citizenship, resulting in statelessness.
What happens under Italian law when a person born in Italy is declared stateless?
According to art. 1 co. 1 lett. B) l. 91/92, is an Italian national by birth "who was born in the territory of the Republic if both parents are unknown or stateless, or if the child does not follow the nationality of the parents according to the law of the State to which they belong".
On May 2021, pursuant to art. 1 co. 1 lett. B) l. 91/92 cited above, the mother applied for recognition of Italian citizenship for her stateless daughter before the Ordinary Court of Rome, who considered excessive the necessary transfer of the child to Paraguay in order to obtain citizenship, as required by the Paraguayan Constitution. Consequently, it was held that the case fell within the scope of Art. 1 co. 1 lett. B) 1. 91/92.
The request for recognition of Italian citizenship in favor of the kid has been thus granted and the child was declared an Italian citizen with the ordinance dated September 3rd, 2022.
Statelessness in Europe
The right to nationality is the subject of numerous international treaties, first of all, the European Convention on Nationality, based on principles of non-discrimination and prevention of statelessness.
This right constitutes a fundamental part of social identity and is considered essential for the individual to enjoy other important rights such as access to education, employment, health care, and freedom of movement.
The causes of statelessness are multiple, including complexities in nationality laws, state succession, forced displacement, contemporary and past migration movements, problems with birth registration, and problems with administrative practices.
According to the UNHCR (United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees), there are more than half a million stateless persons or persons of uncertain nationality in Europe.
This esteem includes the stateless people in Italy, which counts between 3.000 and 15.000 individuals, and only a few hundred of them have received stateless status from the Italian Government.
A great part of the stateless people in Italy is part of the Rom community.
All around the world, the COVID-19 pandemic has certainly stressed the existing inequalities and exasperated the already marginalized situation of the stateless people.
