India is presently in a state of transition - economically, demographically, and epidemiologically - in terms of health. While the last decade has seen remarkable economic development particularly in terms of gross domestic product (GDP) growth rate,  unfortunately this progress is accompanied by growing disparities between the rich and the poor. There is strong evidence to suggest that this income inequality or disparity between the different socioeconomic classes is associated with worse health outcomes.  Widening the gap between the rich and the poor has damaging health and social consequences. While financial inclusion and social security measures are being implemented by the Government to bridge economic inequalities, health sector too must ensure that health disparities between and among social and economic classes are also addressed adequately.
The unprecedented demographic changes underway are likely to contribute to a substantially increased labor force. However, it will benefit the country only if the population is healthy. The country at present suffers from the triple burden of disease - the unfinished agenda of infectious diseases; the challenge of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs), linked with lifestyle changes; and emergence of new pathogens causing epidemics and pandemics. In addition, the health infrastructure is already over-stretched and needs to be strengthened to enable it confront these challenges in the twenty-first century.
In health sector, India has made enormous strides over the past decades. The life expectancy has crossed 67 years, infant and under-five mortality rates are declining as is the rate of disease incidence. Many diseases, such as polio, guinea worm disease, yaws, and tetanus, have been eradicated.
In spite of this progress, the communicable diseases is expected to continue to remain a major public health problem in the coming decades posing a threat to both national and international health security.  Besides endemic diseases such as human immunodeficiency virus infection and acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS), tuberculosis (TB), malaria, and neglected tropical diseases, the communicable disease outbreaks will continue to challenge public health, requiring high level of readiness in terms of early detection and rapid response. In this regard, vector-borne diseases, such as dengue and acute encephalitis syndrome, are of particular concern. Antimicrobial resistance is one of the biggest health challenges facing humanity that must be tackled with all seriousness.
In addition, non-communicable diseases or NCDs are now the leading cause of death in the country, contributing to 60% of deaths. , Four diseases namely heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and chronic pulmonary diseases contribute nearly 80% of all deaths due to NCDs and they share four common risk factors namely tobacco use, harmful use of alcohol, unhealthy diet, and lack of physical activities.
Also of significant concern is the maternal mortality ratio and infant mortality rate (IMR) remain unacceptably high. The IMR, which was 81 in 1990, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), declined to 41.4 per 1,000 live births in 2013.  However, it still is much higher than the global average for the same period of 33.6 per 1,000 live births (World Health Statistics 2015). According to the sample registration system (SRS) report of Oct 2015, the IMR is now 40 per 1,000 live births.  As already stated, the mortality rates are declining but the rate of decline remains relatively slow, compared to that being achieved by other South Asian neighbors, with exception of Pakistan.
The epidemiological transition is, in fact, being fueled by the social and economic determinants of health and by some old and some new risk factors such as globalization, unplanned and unregulated urbanization, changing life styles, environmental causes (e.g., climate change and air pollution), and increasing influence of media and advertising. Moreover, great disparities between the rich and poor (and between those living in urban and rural areas) in access to health services continue to exist in the society. For example, the poorest of the poor and the most marginalized sections of the society are not only at a greater risk for communicable and NCDs, but are also least able to cope with the diseases resulting from these risk factors. If someone in the family gets sick, the family often gets trapped in poverty, partly due to the high cost of health care. The health-care system is also overstretched.
First, investing more in health and recognizing disease prevention and health promotion as the topmost priority. Consequently, government health expenditure on health should increase from 1.3% of GDP at present to at least 2.5% before the end of 13 th Five-Year Plan (2013-19). Presently, India has one of the lowest allocations to health among all countries of the world as percentage of GDP. As a result of such a low investment in health and due to high out-of-pocket expenditure (85.6% which according to the World Bank is among the highest in the world),  nearly 60 million people are pushed further into poverty and into the poverty trap from that they are unable to escape.
Of the total health budget allocation for health, at least 80% of the fund should be earmarked for disease prevention, health promotion, and improving the quality of health services at the primary care level. The new health policy should lay stress on the concept of health as the people's right and make it mandatory to protect health budget at all times including the time of financial crisis. Based on the national health policy, each states should develop a state health policy and drive innovation in program implementation and finding solutions to its health problems.
Second, health system should be strengthened to improve the process of service delivery. In order to make the health services responsive to the need of the community, it is necessary to improve the functioning of the existing government health infrastructure. This can be done in three steps as follows: First, the assessment of existing public health system and facilities, bringing improvements based on the findings of the assessment including augmented human and material resources, and monitoring their performance and fixing accountability in a systematic manner, by setting targets and trying to achieve them through a comprehensive and integrated approach, with full involvement of the community. Improved access to government health services, which are used primarily by the poor and the disadvantaged sections of the society, will go a long way in achieving better health outcomes.
For efficient and effective delivery of services, an efficient public-health workforce is key. India has one of the lowest density of health workforce; with density of physicians (7 per 10 000 population) and nurses (17.1 per 10 000 population) as against the global average of 13.9 and 28.6 respectively (World Health Statistics, 2015). The nurses-to-physicians ratio in India is about 0.6:1, as against the nurses-to-physicians ratio of 3:1 in some of the developed countries. The issue is very serious, particularly in the rural areas,  as most doctors and hospital beds are concentrated in urban areas catering to only 20% of the India's population. Public health planners should make all efforts to fill vacant posts through efficient recruitments, and build skill of the existing staff through training activities and by creating enabling environment including adequate facilities for health workers to stay in rural areas. To enhance skill training activities, health can leverage with and benefit from the national skill development mission launched by the Prime Minister in August 2015.
Third, focusing on evidence, excellence, and equity. An evidence-based policy-making requires data on disease burden and the associated determinants. Focus should be on strengthening a widespread research and innovation culture through out the country and generating homegrown data, obtained through surveillance, research, and monitoring and evaluation (M&E), so that these data can be used for policy and strategy development, priority setting, and evaluating the impact.
Ëmphasizing on excellence is crucial to ensure quality in service provision and in program planning and implementation, especially to ensure that health services are responsive to the needs of the community and are provided efficiently and effectively.
Addressing equity is fundamental because the purpose of public health should be the welfare of the weakest and most vulnerable section of the society. In this regard, the priority should be given to understanding the barriers to equitable access, integrating equity goals in policy and programs, and targeting resources and efforts to reach the poor and vulnerable sections of the society with the needed services. By improving program efficiency, performance and reach, these three "Es" can indeed shape the future of public health in India.
Fourth, leveraging technology to transform public health. Modern technology has great potential in bringing efficiency in service delivery and enhancing the reach of the health services. It can, for example, connect remote areas with national centers of excellence or patients in villages with doctors in hospitals in urban areas through audio or video conferencing. The government is already establishing a network of telemedicine services, mother and child tracking system of weekly voice messages to pregnant women and new mothers, web-based TB registration scheme called Nikshay, and planning mobile app for the training of Accredited Social Health Activist (ASHA) workers. Space research is another area to explore.
Mobile technology holds great promise especially due to its ubiquitous nature. With more than one billion mobile users in the country, the mobile phones offer tremendous opportunities in efficient health service delivery which include: 1) ensuring treatment adherence by sending sms text messages to patients with diabetes or HIV/AIDS reminding them to take their treatment, 2) quick reporting of cases during outbreaks or epidemics, 3) alerting next level of health services regarding emergency situation such as difficult or complicated labor in a remote rural area, or 4) informing populations and creating awareness about emerging health issues or health programs. The internet connectivity is presently being used to enhance e-governance and making patient consultations with experts such a teleophthalmology in Tripura and teleradiology in Assam. , In addition, low-smoke stoves can help reduce indoor pollution and respiratory infections, and the use of point-of-care diagnostic methods, such as a lab in a suitcase for diagnosis in areas where such facilities do not exist, can be of great help. These examples show that technology already available can enhance the quality and efficiency of the services, and this should be expanded and scaled up rapidly, in order to make health services available and accessible for the people living in geographically remote areas.
Finally, empowering health leadership and governance. It is now clear that most of the risk factors for ill health lie outside of health sector. Therefore, action to combat these risk factors requires an intersectoral and interdisciplinary approach. For a country that has a vibrant civil society and private health sector and an advanced pharmaceutical and biotechnological research capacity, these attributes should be leveraged for the benefit of public health. Besides policy, the programs also should have inbuilt mechanism to ensure transparency and fix accountability.
Uniquely, the role of the government is to formulate policies, plan services, and coordinate activities. It also has a mobilizing and facilitating roles. It should reach out to the sectors other than health sector to develop a consensus on national policies and to build partnership between different sectors for better service delivery based on the comparative advantages of each relevant sector, namely private medical sector (to follow national policies ad treatment protocols), including corporate hospitals (to provide subsidized care to the poor), nongovernmental organization particularly based in the community (for advocacy and service provision), academia and medical colleges, and research organizations (in research and innovation). The self-help groups and cooperative societies, such as Amul, are also contributing to healthcare through innovative approaches.
Private sector can also support the health promotion and disease prevention activities under public-private partnership and through the corporate social responsibility initiatives. Engaging them in a creative and positive manner as partners for health action coordinated by the government can go a long way in addressing health challenges in the next decade and beyond.

Butterfly Weed Rose Asclepias Incarnata is one of the most beautiful perennial wildflowers that is native to Eastern North America. Butterfly Weed Rose can be grown from seeds, and also known as Swamp Milkweed or Rose Milkweed, Asclepias Incarnata grows up to four feet in height producing a large number of showy flat-topped clusters of deep-pink to red blooms. Swamp Milkweed blooms all summer long, and lovely vanilla-fragrant clusters of small carmine-rose flowers attract Monarchs along with other butterflies. Butterfly Weed is a favorite host plant for the Monarch butterfly caterpillar.
Butterfly Weed Rose is an important addition to any butterfly garden, and this attractive wildflower is also often planted as a bordering plant or grown in meadows. Asclepias Incarnata seeds cannot be covered, because they need light to geminate, and Swamp Milkweed grows best in full sun preferring consistently moist soil and tolerating partial shade and average, well-drained soil. The established plant is care-free and tolerates heat and humidity. Butterfly Weed makes a nice, long-lasting cut flower, and this plant is an outstanding choice for fresh and dried bouquets.


If we want to analyze the motion of a body in fluid, we should use rigid-body dynamics and fluid dynamics together. Even if the rigid-body and fluid dynamics are each self-consistent, there arises the problem of self-similar structure in the equation of motion when the two dynamics are coupled with each other. When the added mass is greater than the mass of a body, the calculated motion is divergent because of its self-similar structure. This study showed that the above problem is an inherent problem. This problem of self-similar structure may arise in the equation of motion in which the fluid dynamic forces are treated as external forces on the right hand side of the equation. A reconfiguration technique for the equation of motion using pseudo-added-mass was proposed to resolve the self-similar structure problem; specifically for the case when the fluid force is expressed by integration of the fluid pressure .
If we want to analyze the motion of a body in a fluid, we should analyze the rigid-body dynamics of the body and the fluid dynamics of the surrounding fluid. Traditionally, the potential theory has been used for the analysis of the flow of fluid in studying the motion of ships. Added mass, which is the mass of surrounding fluid moving together with a ship, was treated as part of the virtual mass of that ship, and the wave damping forces were treated as the damping of the body. The main external force comes from incident waves, so gravity wave dynamics had to be solved, and the resultant pressure was integrated over the body surface to form the wave external force.
Currently, in analyzing ship motion, besides the potential theory, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) based on the Navier-Stokes equation is being used; owing to the development of computers. One of the main differences between the potential theory and CFD is the treatment of added mass. In the potential theory, the added mass can be expressed explicitly, so one obtains the added mass, adds this to the mass of the ship, and then analyzes the ship motion. However using CFD, the ship motion analysis is done by first solving the flow of surrounding fluid for a given ship motion; then adding the pressure forces acting on the ship surface into the external forces of the equation of motion. This is because the inertia forces due to added mass cannot be expressed explicitly, so one cannot help but treat it as external force. Thus the difference is whether the added mass can be treated as ship-mass or be included in external forces. Using CFD, an assumption of convergence is made; that is, there is no problem if the time interval for time integration is reduced sufficiently, even if the inertia force due to added mass is treated as external force.
In this study, we revisited the property of added mass, investigated its property in the equation of motion, and the problems that can take place. Our work revealed that the equation of motion has a self-similar structure if the forces due to added mass are treated as external forces; then the solution can diverge. In differential equation, the highest order differential term has the most important role in the equation. We say that the equation has a self-similarity, if the variable to be sought(the highest order differential term) is expressed by forcing terms including that variable itself. In a numerical example, it was shown that the solution can be divergent even if the time interval is reduced sufficiently. This divergent solution may be a false solution due to the self-similarity of the equation, not due to the dynamic property. When using the non-linear potential theory or CFD based on the Navier-Stokes equation for analysis of the surrounding fluid, the reconfiguration technique using 'pseudo-added-mass' to resolve the problem of self-similar structure was proposed. The pseudo-added-mass is indeed mass that is pseudo-added in order to ensure a convergence of the solution.
The concept of added mass or virtual mass has appeared in the literature since 1828, when Friedrich Bessel described the motion of a pendulum in fluid domain. The period was longer than that in the air, and this phenomenon was explained as being due to an increase in the effective mass by the surrounding fluid. Later, the concept of added mass played an important role in the analysis of the motion of a body, and the added mass was obtained analytically for simple shapes. Surely, the concept of added mass has been used in ship motion analysis, but the added mass could only be obtained after the shape of the ship was modified to a less accurate, simpler shape.
The added mass of more ship-like shapes was obtained by Lewis (1929) . He used the conformal mapping technique to mathematically represent the shape of the ship cross section; a result that is now called the Lewis form. He used added mass in his analysis of the vibration of a ship. Hess and Smith (1962) proposed the numerical method to calculate the potential flow around a 3-dimensional body of arbitrary shape. The added mass of a body floating on a free surface has different characteristics from those of a body in unbounded fluid. The formulations on this problem were made by Ursell (1949) , and John (1949 ; 1950) . Ursell (1949) analyzed the motion of a circular cylinder on a free surface by obtaining the added mass using the multi-pole expansion method. Later, Tasai (1959) developed the multi-pole expansion method further to obtain the added mass of a Lewis form on a free surface. Now, the added mass of ship-like section could be calculated. Frank (1967) proposed a calculation method for added mass of an arbitrary shape, and more developments on this method made it applicable to 3-dimensional shapes. Newman (1978) gave a good account of the history and efforts toward representing the motion of a ship.
), appears on the right hand side of the equation. The problem of divergent self-similar structure should be resolved by the renormalization technique in order to represent physical phenomena properly (Parker, 1983). The equation of motion that can better represent the motion of a body in a fluid is Eq. (5).
Comparing this with Eq. (3), the mass in the equation is altered, that is, the structure of the equation is different. In this case, does Eq. (3) present any problems? Even if the two systems of rigid-body and fluid dynamics have no problems, and are self-consistent, the coupled system may have self-similar structure when the two systems interact with each other. That is to say, even though the equations here seem to be perfect in each sense, problems may arise in the system in which the components interact with each other. In the case of differential equations in which the highest order terms appear on both sides, the equation should be modified so that the highest order term can appear only on the left hand side.
In summary, the force due to added mass originally comes from the surrounding fluid, but should be included in the mass term of the equation of motion because it is proportional to the acceleration of the body. The concept of added mass is often called the first example of renormalization in physics. In potential theory, the force due to added mass can be expressed explicitly as the product of the added mass and the acceleration of the body. But when the fluid dynamics is analyzed using CFD based on the Navier-Stokes equation, the force due to the fluid pressure also includes the effect of added mass, even though it cannot be expressed explicitly. Thus, the structure of the equation of motion becomes self-similar.
Let us consider the equation of motion relating to the added mass. The focus is on how the fluid force is represented, and on the concept of the treatment of added mass; not on the details of the equation of motion.
The linear theory for analyzing the motion of a body was developed mainly with the potential theory. There are two main streams of analysis: one for the frequency-domain and the other for the time-domain. The two results are related to each other through a Fourier transform because of their linearity. Let us see a method for expressing the fluid force.
The added mass is expressed explicitly in the fluid force expression, so the added mass term can be moved to the left hand side of the equation. Because of the existence of a free surface, the added mass is dependent on the frequency; which means that the added mass varies in time.
In time-domain analysis, the impulse-response function is used. It is defined as the time history of the fluid force when the velocity of the body is given as impulse.
The motion of the body can now be calculated without any problem using Eq. (16), which has been reconfigured by renormalization.
where ni is the component of normal vector in the direction of the motion mode. If the free surface and body surface are tracked by the semi Euler-Lagrangian scheme ( Longuet-Higgins and Cokelet, 1976 ), the pressure on the surface should be represented by a substantial derivative.
It is impossible to extract the added mass explicitly from Eq. (18).
The momentum equation becomes the Euler equation for a non-viscous fluid.
Let us consider the simple problem shown in Fig. 1 , in which the body is located at x = 0 , and fluid occupies the region( 0 < x < l ). Assume that the fluid can move only in the x-direction, the viscous effect is neglected, and that the pressure vanishes at x = l .
Simple configuration of a body-fluid interaction problem and grid system for a numerical scheme.
Applying the pressure condition, we can obtain the pressure.
Eq. (24) shows that the fluid mass is the added mass and the fluid force is explicitly proportional to the body acceleration. This means that the pressure force includes the force due to the added mass. For a 1-dimensional case, the explicit expression of added mass in the force can be obtained, but for 2 and 3-dimentional cases, it may be impossible to get that type of expression. The important thing to notice is that the pressure force includes the force due to the added mass, no matter whether the expression is explicit or implicit.
where mf = ρl is the mass of fluid that moves with the body, that is, the added mass. Eq. (26) is the numerical version of Eq. (24). This means that we will obtain the same result independent of whether the problem is solved analytically or numerically. That is, the pressure force includes the force due to added mass, and the point of difference is that this value is now interpreted as the value at the time step n −1/ 2 .
This equation shows that the force due to added mass will be included in the external forces, and that the time definition of it is t − h (i.e., the previous time step), if we solve the problem by obtaining the pressure force from fluid dynamics and put it into the external forces of the equation; not directly obtaining the added mass. Two facts make problems in the equation of motion. One is that the acceleration on the right hand side is defined as that at the previous time step. The other is that the force due to the added mass is treated as an external force, while it is the highest order term in the equation. It is tempting to think that the smaller time step will remove all the problems; however, as seen in the previous section, the problem cannot be resolved even if the time is zero. This is inevitable because the highest order term is treated as an external force in the above equation. That is the self-similarity problem in terms of mathematics and physics.
The characteristics of the equation are included in the homogeneous equation.
If the fluid force is expressed using non-linear potential theory, or the Navier-Stokes equation, the equation of motion has a structure like Eq. (3), and the force due to the added mass is included on the right hand side of the equation. Here we modify Eq. (30) to that structure.
In other words, we can obtain a stable solution from the equation of motion only if the added mass is less than the mass of the body. The above criterion for numerical stability agrees well with that for the theoretical one (Eq. (10)). This means that if the condition in Eq. (38) is not satisfied, we will obtain divergent solutions no matter what the numerical scheme is (even using Runge-Kutta or higher order methods). Furthermore, it is clear that the same problem will arise in a second-order differential equation in which restoring force exists.
In order to see how the numerical solutions appear in real numerical calculations, some numerical calculations for the same virtual mass were done and the results were illustrated in Fig. 2 through 4. For convenience, the chosen value of k was 1, and the time steps 0.01, 0.02, 0.05, and 0.1.
Numerical solutions of 1st-order differential equation of self-similar form, and difference with exact solution; varying time-step size h. The upper illustrates the differences with exact solution, and bottom calculated solutions for m′ = 0.5 .
The ratio m ′ can be interpreted as the amount of mass which is treated as the external forces in the right hand side of the equation. Because all the results are for the same virtual mass, it is easy to compare the effects of that portion of the virtual mass which plays the role of external force when the equation has a structure like Eq. (3). Fig. 2 shows the result when m ′ is 0.0 and 0.2 (i.e., when all the virtual mass is treated as the system inertial mass and a 20% portion of the mass is treated as the external force). As expected, the numerical solution goes toward the exact solution as the time step size decreases. When m ′ = 0.2 , there exists a short oscillation in the initial period. When m ′ increases to 0.4, the oscillation grows in magnitude and is sustained for a longer period of time, as shown in Fig. 3 . The oscillation is not the oscillation of the dynamic system; it is a false solution and bounces back and forth. When m ′ = 0.49 , the small time steps make the absolute value of β 2 less than 1, and the large time steps make it larger than 1, so the solution with large time steps diverges, while that with small time steps converges. When m ′ = 0.5 , the limit of stability, all numerical solutions diverge regardless of the time step size. With these results, it was shown that the instability of the equation, in which the force due to added mass is treated as external force, must arise not only in theory, but also in numerical calculation.
As seen in the previous sections, we know that the equation of motion should be solved after modifying the equation via the renormalization concept(i.e., so that all the inertia forces appear in the left hand side of equation of motion), when the added mass which is included on the right hand side of the equation is greater than the mass of a body. When the added mass is less than the mass of a body, for example the motion of a deep buoy, there is no big difficulty in calculation of motion except for the bouncing transition solution of the initial stage. However, in the case of the heave and pitch of a shallow draft ship, an instability problem may arise because of a large amount of added mass and moment of inertia. This conclusion can be applied to rotational motion. For the roll of a ship, the added moment of inertia of fluid is usually less than that of the ship, so the solution may be obtained without great difficulty.
In cases where all the pressure forces are treated as external forces like Eq. (3) (i.e. using non-linear potential theory or the Navier-Stokes equation), the stability problem may arise. This is particularly true when the added mass is greater than, or equal to, the mass of a body. This is because the equation of motion has a self-similar structure. To resolve this stability problem, all one has to do is move the added mass term to the left hand side of the equation when the added mass term is expressed explicitly. However, when the added mass cannot be expressed explicitly, one may add the same quantity to both sides to resolve the problem. Here we introduce a method for adding 'pseudo-added-mass'.
In cases that there is no choice but to put the force due to the added mass on the right hand side of the equation, reconfiguration by adding the 'pseudo-added-mass' can resolve the self-similar structure of the equation of motion.
The rigid-body dynamics and fluid dynamics of a fluid surrounding a body are self-consistent and seem to be exact. However, when the two dynamics are coupled with each other in order to produce the equation of motion, the resulting equation of motion may have a self-similar structure. Furthermore, when the added mass is greater than the mass of a body, the solution of that equation will diverge instantaneously, and this problem is shown to be inherent.
This study reviewed the structure of various types of equation of motion. The equations using the traditional potential theory resolve this problem of self-similarity by introducing the concept of the added mass, but equations using a non-linear potential or the Navier-Stokes equation have a self-similar structure.
In order to see whether the inherent problem of self-similarity happens only in theory, a numerical study was done. The results showed that the numerical solutions also have the same property as theory, except for the effect of time step size.
With the results obtained in this study, a reconfiguration method using 'pseudo-added-mass' was proposed. It may be useful for resolving the divergent phenomenon caused by self-similarity when the implicit added mass is greater than the mass of a body.
In this study, the analysis involved a 1-dimensional case, but its logic can easily be applied to 2 and 3-dimensinal cases. The author hopes that provisions for 2 and 3-dimensional cases will be made in the future.
This research has begun with the investigation of the numerical stability of the motion of a ship. The author hopes that this article will give a little clue to refine the numerical schemes for the field of a numerical analysis (CFD and non-linear potential theory) on the ship motion in a fluid.

any help/hint is highly appreciated, thanks in advance.

A: Try to change your entities dir in ormconfig.json or .env, it worked for me as:
"entities": ["dist/**/**.entity{.ts,.js}"]

A: There is an issue, how you are loading the **TypeOrmModule**. The way, you had loaded, it is synchronous so it simply means custom env will not be available instantly on application boot.
So what you can do, is to load  TypeOrmModule` asynchronusly like below -
 ConfigModule.forRoot({
  isGlobal: true, // [REQUIRED if want to use env gloablly among all modules]
 }),
 TypeOrmModule.forRootAsync({
      useFactory: () => ({
        type: 'mysql',
        host: process.env.TYPEORM_HOST,
        port: parseInt(process.env.TYPEORM_PORT, 10),
        username: process.env.TYPEORM_USERNAME,
        password: process.env.TYPEORM_PASSWORD,
        database: process.env.TYPEORM_DATABASE,
        synchronize: false,
        migrations: [process.env.TYPEORM_MIGRATIONS],
        cli: {
          migrationsDir: process.env.TYPEORM_MIGRATIONS_DIR,
        },
        logging: process.env.TYPEORM_LOGGING === 'true' ? true : false,
        entities: [__dirname + '/../**/*.entity{.ts,.js}'],
      }),
 }),

A: You should specify the connection in ormconfig.json in the project root folder.
looking something like this
{
    "type": "postgres",
    "host": "localhost",
    "port": <port>,
    "username": "",
    "password": "",
    "database": "",
    "entities": ["dist/**/*.entity{.ts,.js}"],
    "synchronize": true,
    "logging": "all",
    "migrations": [
        "migrations/**/*.js"
    ],
    "subscribers": [
        "subscriber/**/*.js"
    ],
    "cli": {
        "migrationsDir": "<migrations directory>",
        "subscribersDir": "<subscriber directory>"
    }
}

Q: Qt creator with several projects: avoid each project "reviewing" I currently have a .pro of subprojects template. This .pro file references a lot of other .pro files, each one being a project itself. It compiles, builds and runs.
The problem is that each time I want to run my program, Qt Creator (or perhaps it's make itselfs) checks all projects' status or something like that. For each project it shows the following:
cd A_PROJECT_DIRECTORY && ( test -e Makefile ||
/opt/Qt5.5.1/5.5/gcc_64/bin/qmake A_PROJECT_DIRECTORY/PROJECT_FILE.pro
-spec linux-g++ CONFIG+=debug -o Makefile ) && /usr/bin/make -f Makefile
    make[1]: Entering directory `A_PROJECT_DIRECTORY'
    make[1]: Nothing to be done for `first'.
    make[1]: Leaving directory `A_PROJECT_DIRECTORY'

It takes very little time for each one of those operations but there are so many projects that at the end it has a sensible impact in the edit + build + test workflow.
So, the question is: is there any way to skip those make "tests" or whatever are they and launch immediatly the executable after it has been built? Or some other way to speed up this process?
All the above is in Linux environment.
Thank you very much.

Schoolgirls see their winning designs turned into Christmas stockings
The trio from Gladstone Primary Academy, in Sandford Hill, also got to switch on Longton's Christmas lights as part of their competition prize
Kathie McInnes
Back row from left are Phil Rowley, chairman of Longton Community Partnership, Kath Roberts, secretary of LCP, and Sue Rammell, Home School Link Worker at Gladstone Primary. At the front from left are Casey Holdham, aged five, Abigail Cope, aged 11, and Daisy Perkins, aged eight
Three schoolgirls will have extra special stockings to hang up at Christmas after their winning designs were printed professionally.
Gladstone Primary Academy pupils Daisy Perkins, Abigail Cope and Casey Holdham swept the board in a competition to find the best designs for festive socks.
The challenge was open to schools across the Longton area, with youngsters submitting entries in three age categories.
As part of their prize, the girls from the Sandford Hill-based school also got to become VIPs and switch on the town's Christmas lights.
These two schools FINALLY have new names (and this is what was picked...)
Organised by Longton Community Partnership, it saw each pupil given the outline of a stocking to draw round and decorate.
Eleven-year-old Abigail, from Longton, said: "I put a snowman on my design because no one else in my class did the same thing.
"It was exciting to win. I've entered the competition every year since I was in Year 1 and have never won before."
The three winning designs were then incorporated into a screen print, which was produced by Hanley-based Entrepreneurs. And the winners helped pull the printing lever to create their final stockings.
Eight-year-old Daisy, from Meir Hay, said: "I put Santa Claus on the top of my design. I also put some dots on the back of the foot. I thought it was really good."
She will now be putting out the professionally made stocking on a shelf at home, ready for presents at Christmas.
Getting to switch on the town's lights has also been a treat for the winners.
Five-year-old Casey, from Meir Hay, said: "We had to pull on the lever and the Christmas tree lights came on. It was exciting. Santa was there as well."
To round off the prizes, the winners were also invited to the Lord Mayor's parlour and were given goodie bags filled with items from Smyth's Toys.
Sue Rammell, home-school link worker at Gladstone, said: "We had all 480 children take part from our school. It's the first time we've had all the winners."
Kath Roberts, secretary of Longton Community Partnership, said: "It's an annual competition that we hold as part of our Christmas event. This year, we wanted to have a Christmas stocking theme.
Academy's £250k-a-year council bailout cut short... as pupil numbers rise!
"We had an independent judge – Edward Walker from Walkers Nonsuch – who picked the winners. Each of them have now got their own stocking."

COVID-19 Brave New World, Reality
It's a COVID-19 Brave New World. The world changed for us on the weekend of, March 7. In good ways but also bad ways.
Celebration then Isolation
March 7 was the First Daughter's wedding in Minneapolis. It was a celebratory event. We had a great weekend. Got a new Daughter-in-Law. We worshipped, we ate, we danced with extended family and friends. Dan got to deliver the penultimate toast with some fun and touching family storytelling. Lori looked like a blonde Mrs. Masil in a classic tea-length dress. The daughters got to shine. But it already feels like another time. A last hurrah!
Self-Isolation a World Apart
The following Monday, March 9, the news of coronavirus kept escalating. The black swan showed up on our side of the world. We went into self-isolation. We did one brief and careful shopping trip on the 10th for a few items. But have since stayed apart.
Business Shock
I'm helping my business clients survive a collapse of revenue and the resulting loss of cash flow to service long-term debt. Not all will survive. I'm grieving along with friends and colleagues. Some are pivoting into the crisis with new solutions. We need small businesses on the backside of this emergency to survive to create jobs anew in the recovery. Without small businesses? We'll emerge from a public health crisis into an economic Depression.
Lori's focused on the resulting isolation of her 91-year old Mom in a locked-down senior living facility. No more face-to-face family visits. The risk is too high for the elderly with underlying medical conditions like Mom's emphysema and more. That means multiple calls a day both with Mom and the siblings. Producing cards and gifts. Photo sharing online and more. We worry about Mom's physical and emotional health.
Fighting the Unseen and Unknown
The math is discouraging because this sneaky coronavirus is both easily transmitted (high RO in epidemiological terms) and because it is transmissible when people are asymptomatic. Screening for fevers isn't enough. People already spread the virus before they are obviously sick. If you didn't learn exponential equations in school? We're living in one now. Flattening the curve is a real challenge. So welcome to social distancing, self-isolation, and even quarantine. It's like listening to my maternal grandmother and WWI Army Nurse describe the 1918-1920 Spanish Flu.
We live in rural Iowa. We benefit from physical separation and lower density. We're at risk however because our health system starts out understaffed and with very few Intensive Care Unit (ICU) beds. And because of our 60ish age. I compound the age risk with asthma. Colds go straight to my bronchial tubes. That's not good with this novel coronavirus.
Dystopian COVID-19 Brave New World
Aldous Huxley's 1932 dystopian novel, Brave New World, is a literature staple. The real-world sure feels dystopian now. There's both injustice and suffering. None of this is the fault of the business owners shut down or patients struggling to breathe. Or the families losing loved ones. The cost to livelihoods and lives is the definition of unjust suffering. The virus doesn't care. We face its impersonal tyranny.
Return to Principles — High Purpose
Healthcare providers and caregivers on the front lines are necessarily at risk. That's both courage and mission expressed in daily service above and beyond.
Our survival, both individually and as a society, requires social distancing and physical isolation. We are all called to higher purpose and leadership. We're trying to live out our principles that require teamwork and service beyond self while minimizing physical contact. That's not an easy equation to solve. For the time being, helping each other requires minimizing physical contact or being together in body.
Sharing the Search for New Meanings and Solutions
We're going to share our journey in higher purpose going forward as one answer.
No Return to Normalcy
The big observation from the last few days? There will be no return to normalcy. This is a "things are permanently different" event. There was before. There's the strange now. There will be a different future. An event of this magnitude leaves a mark. We don't know yet what that looks like. But this "lost year" will permanently change life, society, and business. So, one necessary response is to start looking for clues. How will life change going forward, even after the public health emergency is passed? It's a COVID-19 Brave New World.
I compare the strange now to the alternate reality of the Mirror Universe in Marvel's Doctor Strange. Except in this alternate reality? The here and now damages the future. We're trading jobs and economic damage for saving lives. Necessary, but painful.
What's Your COVID-19 Brave New World?
This is Aldous Huxley's COVID-19 Brave New World. How is your world changing? Share your challenges? What will linger even after the emergency? What are your big fears?
Interested in a Weekly What-If Session?
Would you be interested in a free weekly opportunity to brainstorm and explore your "what ifs?" We could discuss options based on our shared experiences in business, personal finance, lifestyle, and life? Maybe get outside our own head with a sounding board. Videoconferencing like Zoom makes this easy to do. We'll experiment next week, April 3, 2020, with a Friday, 10:00 AM CST call-in videoconference. Sign-in details to join will follow.
Aging With Freedom's high purpose or mission is shifting to understand and help our friends and followers deal with a new reality. Aging With Freedom requires building the best Brave New World we can.

Arab Spring Gives Way to Summer of Protest in Balkans
Is anti-Christian Muslim radicalism brewing in Kosova?
http://www.islamicpluralism.org/1824/arab-spring-gives-way-to-summer-of-protest-in
The 14th c. CE Stone (Kosova) Mosque, Prishtina.
On Friday, July 1, Prishtina, the capital of the Kosova Republic, saw some 1,000 Albanian Muslims praying in the main, downtown open-air square, while demanding space for a new and large mosque. The demonstration was the second such event in two weeks.
For those who know Kosova, the phenomenon was surprising and bizarre. Prishtina has notable mosques built in the classical Ottoman style. They include two in the very center of town, only yards from the place where the demonstration was held. The Stone Mosque, so-called because of the stone cap on its minaret (the cap would more typically be metallic), is also known as the "Kosova mosque" because it is believed to have been erected to commemorate the 1389 Turkish victory in the battle of the same name.
Across the way, the Imperial Mosque dates from the 15th century and provides a larger prayer space; it has come under the domination of a radical preacher, Shefqet Krasniqi. Nearby is a more recent Saudi-built mosque. Others constructed with financing from the Gulf states are found elsewhere in the city. Indeed, being 90 percent Muslim, Kosova has more than 500 mosques. While at least 40 percent were vandalized by Serbian forces during the 1998-99 Kosova war, most have been reconstructed and refurbished.
The July 1 pro-mosque demonstration took place after Friday collective prayer at the Stone Mosque, which would seem to negate the claim made by its promoters, a group that calls itself the "Join!" movement (Bashkohu! in Albanian), that they lack adequate facilities for religious observances. The night before, the Kosova police warned participants not to block any public thoroughfares, since the organizers of the "protest" had refused to apply for a permit to assemble, and one man had been arrested in the similar demonstration by some 300 Muslims the week before. Notwithstanding its Muslim-majority culture, Kosova is a rigorously secular state. When the July 1 mass meeting was held, however, police were replaced by a "security force" from the so-called "Join!" movement, who were dressed in blue and white shirts, and who prevented journalists from approaching the gathering.
In Kosovar media, the need for a new, big mosque as a pretext for the demonstrations was rejected, and attention was focused on the individual who organized them and the "Join!" group – Fuad Ramiqi, a Kosovar Islamist involved in the Gaza "flotilla" last year, as reported here. With the new "flotilla" crossing the Mediterranean from Greece to Gaza at least delayed, Ramiqi had an incentive to keep busy by starting trouble in Kosova. But the Kosova public, and international media, also noticed that the outdoor assembly was distinctly anti-Catholic in tone. Catholics account for 10-25 percent of all Albanians, and represent an important social and cultural force in Kosova.
Catholic Albanians in the republic and around the world have contributed to the establishment in Prishtina of a cathedral named for Mother Teresa, who was born in Macedonia of Kosovar Albanian parents. The proposal for the cathedral was approved by the local authorities in 2002. Before his death in 2006, Ibrahim Rugova, the first president of Kosova after 1999, and a Muslim by birth, participated in the blessing of its cornerstone. Construction, which is still underway, began in 2007, at a busy site in the newer, easterly part of the city, near the University of Prishtina.
The anti-Catholic attitude prevalent among Ramiqi's group was obvious enough to foreign reporters; the Associated Press noted that "a banner appeared on a mosque wall showing a green light by a photograph of a Christian cathedral and a red light beneath one of a mosque." A member of the protesting group, who identified himself as Ramzi Berisha, commented plaintively, "We just want a place for us… to pray out of the open." The Wahhabi preacher Shefqet Krasniqi, mentioned above, supported the demonstrations demanding a grander mosque and also claimed that Muslims in Kosova are forced to pray outside, "in the street under the summer heat and in the winter when it is cold." But outdoor Muslim prayer is rare in Kosova except at funerals… and Islamist agitational events.
Ramiqi and his pro-Hamas network seem to have more reasons to disrupt interfaith relations in Kosova. The Prishtina newspaper Express, which has led coverage of radical Islamist infiltration and attacks on local, traditional Kosovar Muslims during the past two years, declared over the weekend that Ramiqi serves as a front-man in extremist ideological activities for Naim Tërnava, the official head of the Kosova Islamic Community. Tërnava has come under severe criticism from Muslim clerics in smaller towns and villages for his orientation toward Wahhabism.
Express quoted Mullah Osman Musliu of the municipality of Drenas, one of the most outspoken anti-radical Kosovar Muslim figures and a veteran of the Kosova Liberation Army, who accused Tërnava of responsibility for Ramiqi's activities. According to Musliu, a victim of physical attacks by Wahhabis in the republic, "Naim Tërnava can manipulate these people. When he does not want things done under his own roof, he can call on Islamic non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to carry out protests." Musliu accused Tërnava and "his clan" of receiving generous support from foreign Islamist NGOs, for which the top Kosova cleric has never offered an accounting.
Express reported that a movement against Tërnava has gained the support of imams in the towns of Hani të Elezit, Vitia, Klina, and Podujeva, among others. The imam of the main Podujeva mosque, Idriz Bilalli, like Musliu, called out Tërnava for his links with radical Muslim NGOs, declaring that Tërnava had appointed their leaders to responsible positions in the Kosova Islamic apparatus because of their financial assets
As in the past, the Express online comment column included blunt remarks supporting the moderates and repudiating radical Islam. A Prishtina commentator named Bardhi wrote, "We must cultivate a liberal Islam, not that of Bin Laden or the Wahhabis, to preserve our Kosova." A similar resident of the capital, under the name "Albanik Shqipari," emphasized, "The question of the mosque is not the cause of these events. Rather, it is a desire to dominate the naïve Muslims." Yet another individual from Prishtina, signing as "Gur," wrote, "All these Wahhabi beards are paid for… we have enough mosques. We need more work." And perhaps the most appropriate remark was offered by a resident of Tirana, the capital of Albania proper: "Faith is not measured by the size of a mosque or a church."
Through the events of the so-called "Arab Spring" – better called the "Muslim Spring" because of the importance of the Iranian reform movement in assessing its outcome – rumor has spread in the Balkans that a "summer of protest" would soon arrive there.
So far, it appears that a "Balkan summer," like the preceding upsurge in Muslim lands, will reflect discontent with radicalism and demands for open-minded advancement.

OK, what is wrong with this installation?
Same bill payer (air force), different budgets. Judging by the word "STREET" on the newer meter (only word I can make out), that panel feeds a nearby street light.
Base housing probably didn't mind paying the electric bill for the street light (owned by the base public works department) before budget cutting ruined the free ride.
I bet someone got an "energy conservation award" for reducing their building's utility bill!
I'll be a nickel this is someone's wild interpretation of "10CFR435 Subpart C". Don't ask me why I know this.
If you look at the 3rd picture in the "out with the old" thread, one can come up with a good guess on how it was powered up,and yes it for streetlighting.
That Homeline panel is bussed for UG or OH service I doubt that its meant for a subfeed.
Most bases don't even have any metering at all, or at least they didn't before.... (Base Maint. for several years) They (most) get bulk rate for the whole base complex. This might be one of those ideas about "Privatization" of facilities, where some company came up with the lowest bid to manage base housing or other areas for America's Finest.
McClelland AFB has been decommissoned which is prob. why the meter was added.
Thanks e57, that explains a lot.
I've driven by the base housing at the decommissioned MCAS Tustin and wondered why I could not see any evidence of metering.
The land has been sold (at about $1 million an acre) and there are 2000 new homes going up already.
I have an idea of what they'll do with "those", sell or LTL them to George Lucas or some other movie mogal at a bargain basement price, like they have with half of the military bases in CA.
Bottom Line, some lucky guy got to go and install meters on a few thousand buildings!

"Uh... Oh... Ah..." is the second episode of the third season of the American television drama series Homeland, and the 26th episode overall. It aired on Showtime on October 6, 2013. The episode's title is a reference to the last line of the episode, spoken by Carrie Mathison while having difficulty speaking—"Fuck you, Saul."

Plot
Carrie (Claire Danes) is still reeling from Saul's (Mandy Patinkin) public disclosure of her bipolar disorder. In retaliation, she tells a reporter that Brody is innocent; the interview is interrupted by a group of policemen sent by Dar Adal (F. Murray Abraham), who have Carrie committed to a psychiatric facility for 24 hours. Quinn (Rupert Friend) visits her there to warn her of the danger she is in, but an increasingly paranoid Carrie accuses him of having been sent there by Saul to threaten her. Saul visits Carrie's father and sister and tells them that Carrie is unstable, and that they must persuade her to take her medication if they want her to get better. The following day, Carrie attends a psychiatric hearing to determine whether she should be released. When her father and sister tell her that they want her to get back on her regimen of lithium, she flies into a rage that ends with her being restrained and forcibly medicated. After witnessing this, Quinn informs Saul that he does not approve of what the agency is doing to Carrie, and that he intends to resign once his current objectives are completed.

As Dana (Morgan Saylor) tries to get back to normal following her release from the hospital, she chafes under Jessica's (Morena Baccarin) constant monitoring. She is especially upset that Jessica won't let her see Leo (Sam Underwood), now her boyfriend. One night, she runs away back to the hospital to see Leo, where they have sex. The next morning, the hospital staff finds them together, and sends Dana home. At her wits' end, Jessica asks Dana what she wants from her. Dana replies that she wants Jessica to realize that she attempted suicide because she genuinely wanted to die, but being with Leo has restored her will to live.

Saul brings in Fara Sherazi (Nazanin Boniadi), a Muslim financial analyst, to look into the transaction records of HLBC bank tied to the terrorists who committed the Langley attack. During a meeting with the bank's management and legal teams, she bluntly tells the CEO that his bank is indirectly responsible for multiple acts of terrorism; he refuses to cooperate, however. That night, Quinn confronts the CEO and makes a veiled threat on his life while hinting that he was the one who killed the banker's associate in Caracas. The CEO then agrees to turn over all of his records to the CIA, from which they are able to find past transactions, originating from the Iranian government, being sent to associates of Abu Nazir.

Saul goes to see Carrie at the psychiatric ward and apologizes to her. Carrie, struggling to speak because of the medication, whispers, "Fuck... you... Saul".

Production
The episode was written by executive producer Chip Johannessen and was directed by co-executive producer Lesli Linka Glatter. It is the second episode in a row not to feature series star Damian Lewis.

Reception

Ratings
This episode had 1.83 million viewers for its initial airing, a slight decline from the previous week's season premiere.

Reviews
Emily VanDerWerff of The A.V. Club gave the episode a "B+" grade, crediting the direction by Lesli Linka Glatter, while criticizing Saul's treatment of Fara as not being true to his character.  Willa Paskin of Salon commended the performance of Claire Danes in this episode, saying "Danes' skills as an actress have been praised ad infinitum, but when she does work like she does in this episode, I want to tack more compliments on to infinity".  Alan Sepinwall of HitFix also praised Danes' performance, and said that her scenes were "powerful", but also thought that too much of the episode focused on Dana and her boyfriend.

The Trump administration is great for gun owners and terrible for gun manufacturers
(Reuters/Shannon Stapleton)
Guns for sale.
By Xana Antunes
Published March 4, 2017 This article is more than 2 years old.
America's gun manufacturers are having a tough time getting people to buy guns since Donald Trump was elected president.
Sturm, Ruger, the only company in the US that makes all four types of guns—rifles, shotguns, pistols and revolvers—has seen a sharp drop in sales. According to footnoted, Ruger's CEO, Chris Killoy, recently told investors that FBI background checks (which retailers must run on anyone who wants to buy a gun) dropped 17% in December from the previous year. In January, they dropped 24%. It's a similar story at American Outdoor Brands Corp., which owns Smith & Wesson gunmaker.
That a presidential candidate endorsed by the National Rifle Association and an all-Republican congress would be bad for gun makers sounds counterintuitive. But the change in gun makers' fortunes has a simple explanation. In the run-up to November's election, when Hillary Clinton looked like she would win, gun owners feared the risk of anti-gun legislation, so they stocked up on guns, especially the kind that might be outlawed.
Trump's victory meant they didn't have to worry.
Bob Evans, an analyst at Pennington Capital Management, summed it up best on that call with Ruger's management: "You've never had a better administration for the gun industry than Obama, and now never a worse one for the gun industry than Trump."
Up until the election, Ruger's sales were doing great. Revenues were growing sharply, and background checks were up 10%.
"As we discussed in our last call on November 2, just prior to the election, we observed many customers spending discretionary income on concealed carry products and modern sporting rifles in the weeks and months leading up to the election," said Killoy.
But drops in [FBI] checks were a sign that "consumer demand for certain firearms has softened since last year."
Smith & Wesson's parent company said the slump in gun sales after the election offset all the gains it had seen before.
Of course investors didn't wait for gun makers and retailers to tell them things had turned for the worse. They started dumping gun stocks as soon as Trump was elected.

(SMUG), parfois traduit en Minorités sexuelles en Ouganda, est une organisation non gouvernementale faîtière pour la défense des droits LGBT en Ouganda.

Elle est fondée en 2004 par  et dirigée par Frank Mugisha à partir de 2007.

Fondation
 est fondée par , un homme trans, le . L'année précédente, Mukasa avait participé à la création de l'ONG lesbienne Freedom and Roam Uganda. L'influence de cette dernière avait poussé à l'organisation de plusieurs autres groupes LGBT indépendants dans le pays, qui parfois ne se connaissaient pas entre eux. Ces groupes sont cependant plus actifs dans le soutien entre personnes LGBT que dans le militantisme pour leurs droits.

L'année suivante, dix-huit de ces groupes se réunissent en une coalition militante, sous le leadership de Mukasa. S'y retrouvent notamment , Freedom and Roam Uganda, , Lesgabix, , ,  et .

SMUG est créée dans le but de coordonner les actions militantes des différentes organisations LGBT du pays et de promouvoir des revendications communes au nom de l'ensemble des minorités sexuelles. SMUG met aussi en place du soutien pour les victimes de violences, de harcèlement et d'arrestations.

Lors de la fondation de SMUG, Victor Mukasa subit une pression importante de la part des autorités. Même si quelques figures émergent dans les années suivantes , la majorité des membres préfèrent rester anonymes, par crainte de la répression, à la fois juridique et sociale. Cet anonymat rendait difficile l'existence d'une voix unifiée entre personnes LGBT dans la lutte pour les droits. Frank Mugisha est nommé en 2007 directeur général de Minorité sexuelles en Ouganda. Victime d'un harcèlement policier, il quitte l'Ouganda durant un mois en 2008 pour le Kenya.

Sexual Minorities Uganda est suspendue le  par le Bureau national des organisations non gouvernementales. Il reproche à l'organisation de ne pas être enregistré officiellement. En 2012, pourtant, SMUG avait tenté de se déclarer en association, mais l'enregistrement avait été refusé en raison de son nom, qualifié d'.

Actions notables

Plainte contre le gouvernement
Un an après la fondation de SMUG, en 2005, la police fait une descente au domicile de Victor Mukasa, sans mandat valable. Elle l'arrête et lui confisque des documents relatifs à son militantisme. Il devient la cible de commentaires homophobes de la part des médias, du gouvernement et de personnes engagées dans la lutte contre le sida. Une fois libéré, pour se protéger, il doit fuir le pays pendant deux ans pour l'Afrique du Sud.

Victor Mukasa porte plainte contre le gouvernement en 2008, avec Yvone Oyo. Il l'accuse d'intrusion, du vol, d'arrestation illégale et de traitement inhumain et dégradant. Ils sont tous deux dédommagés de  environ, la juge  estimant qu'il y avait une  et à leur vie privée, mais sans reconnaître de rapport avec l'homosexualité ou un . Il s'agit de la première fois que des militants LGBT portent plainte contre l'État ougandais, et une victoire pour la communauté du pays.

Campagne
Le mouvement LGBT ougandais se développe en 2007 grâce un militantisme plus important. La mise en place par  d'une campagne médiatique publique coordonnée de , nommée  (), permet à la communauté de davantage se souder, de gagner en visibilité et de devenir plus homogène. Elle permet également l'établissement d'enclaves LGBT dans la capitale Kampala. Enfin, elle attire une attention importante, au niveau national comme au niveau international.

La campagne est lancée en partie en réaction au meurtre d'une étudiante lesbienne à Kampala. Elle débute le  par une conférence de presse, la première de l'histoire du militantisme ougandais. Ils sont rejoints par plusieurs militantes des droits de l'homme, dont Jessica Nkuuhe, Sarah Mukasa et . Pour se protéger, la plupart des militants présents s'anonymisent en se masquant le visage. Il y est question de LGBTIphobies, de la violation de leurs droits humains, du harcèlement policier et du silence sur la prévention du VIH/SIDA.

Quatre jours plus tard, un pasteur homophobe, Martin Ssempa, rassemble plusieurs centaines de militants anti-LGBT à Kampala, sous la bannière d'une . Ils appellent à . Sheikh Multah Bukenya, leader de la secte salafiste Tabligh en Ouganda, proche du groupe violent Forces démocratiques alliées, appelle à la formation d'un . Il déclare vouloir . La police leur répond, qu'elle .

Plainte contre Rolling Stone
En 2010, le tabloïd ougandais  (qui n'a pas de lien avec son homonyme américain) publie une liste de cent noms de personnes présumées homosexuelles, avec leurs adresses et leur photo, appelant à les pendre. Trois membres de  visés portent l'affaire en justice, David Kato Kisule, Kasha Jacqueline Nabagesera et Pepe Julian Onziema. Le journal est condamné en  à verser  de shillings ougandais d'indemnité à chaque plaignant, le juge estimant que  et que la publication a violé leur droit à la vie privée. Plusieurs personnes outées par  ont été la cible de violences homophobes, et une femme a failli être tuée.

David Kato Kisule est assassiné le . Ce crime de haine homophobe, fortement médiatisé, est condamné à l'international, notamment par le président des États-Unis Barack Obama.

Lutte contre la loi anti-homosexualité
Lorsqu'en 2009 un projet de loi anti-homosexualité est déposé,  se mobilise fortement contre. Le texte prévoit notamment des peines d'emprisonnement à perpétuité et de mort pour les homosexuels.

En 2012, SMUG et le  des États-Unis intentent une action en justice devant une cour fédérale de district américaine contre l'évangéliste américain  pour crime contre l'humanité, en vertu du  et sur la base du droit international. Ils mettent en cause son travail sur le projet de loi anti-homosexualité. En plus de ses articles contraires aux droits humains fondamentaux, ce travail a entraîné la persécution, la torture et le meurtre de plusieurs personnes LGBT. Les requérants accusent Lively d'inciter à la persécution des gays et des lesbiennes et de vouloir les priver de leurs droits.

Le juge  déclare en  que la persécution fondée sur l'orientation sexuelle est un crime contre l'humanité et que donc la plainte est recevable sur la base du droit international, celui protégeant les droits fondamentaux des homosexuels. Il estime également que la défense de Lively, fondée sur le premier amendement, est . L'année suivante, la Cour s'oppose à une autre tentative d'abandon de l'affaire et organise des auditions en 2016. Le tribunal rejette cependant l'affaire en 2017 en raison de son incompétence juridique, citant l'arrêté  pris en 2013, mais valide les réclamations de SMUG. Plusieurs recours et appels sont faits par le SMUG et Scott Lively jusqu'en 2018.

Après avoir été plusieurs fois modifiée, et la condamnation à mort supprimée, la loi est finalement adoptée en 2013. Mais face à la pression internationale, elle est annulée dès l'année suivante. SMUG recense plus de  LGBTIphobes dans les quatre mois suivant son adoption.

Récompenses

 est récompensée en  du Prix Rafto décerné par la  norvégienne  face à une .

Le même mois, son directeur général Frank Mugisha reçoit le prix Robert F. Kennedy des droits de l'homme de l'organisation américaine .

thanks to nikhil for the technical part though.. thanks a lot sweetheart..
Another ditch in the road...u keep moving..
Perfect words for this unpredictable life of ours. Isn't it?? Where u don't really know what's in stored for us in next moment. Something good may be something bad or something totally crazy. Sometimes i think 'surprise 'is a perfect synonym for 'life'. But the problem here is we always relate surprise to something good. But bad things happen with a surprise too its just that we don't call it a surprise. Human emotions, they are always been a mystery to me. We fall, we fail, we cry but we still stand up again, we stand up for some more surprise to live. Without thinking about good or bad.
I haven't seen much in my life but how much ever i have seen, how much ever i have learnt..i know one thing "HOPE FOR GOOD".. and keep moving..
Another stop sign ....u keep moving on..
that's the key to live this life, isn't it??

This past weekend I ventured home to relax for a few days and although "home" for me is only about an hour-and-a-half away, there's something so therapeutic about jumping in your car and escaping for a few days. One of the things I look forward to most when spending time back home are my Mom's home cooked meals and this past weekend was no exception. While making a quick run to the grocery store, I noticed a display for strawberry shortcake and I suggested we make some for dessert that night. Instead of buying the pre-made ingredients right there, my Mom convinced me that homemade shortcake with fresh strawberries and homemade whipped cream would be better, and I was sold!
This is officially the first recipe I've posted on this blog that I did not bake myself, but instead has come straight from my Mom's kitchen. She sent me home with leftovers and I decided they were too good not to share. The texture of homemade shortcake is more reminiscent of a biscuit than the spongy cakes you buy at the store and its subtle sweetness pairs well with fresh strawberries. Finish it off with a dollop of fresh whipped cream and you will never go back to store-bought strawberry shortcake again! Needless to say, I have my Mom to thank for my affinity for food and truly feel lucky to have grown up in a household where eating freshly prepared food wasn't an afterthought. Thanks Mom!
1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Prepare strawberries by cutting them into quarters and placing them into a medium bowl. You may add a few tablespoons of granulated sugar if you desire, but we just left ours plain. Coarsely mash the strawberries and set aside to macerate.
2. In a large bowl combine flour, sugar, baking soda and salt. Mix until combined.
3. Next add the butter, milk and eggs to dry the ingredients and mix just until combined. The consistency should be a crumbly dough. Be sure not to over-mix the dough, otherwise your shortcakes will have a tough texture.
4. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto greased cookie sheet approximately 2 inches apart. Bake for about 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
5. Prepare whipped cream by whisking the heavy cream with the sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Add less or more sugar and vanilla depending on taste.
5. Once the shortcakes have cooled, cut in half lengthwise and fill each cake with strawberries, fresh whipped cream and the other half of the cake. You can also mound the strawberries and whipped cream on top of each shortcake if you prefer.

Emilia Clarke thinks Daenerys' response to Jon's parentage was perfectly normal
Game of Thrones Season 8 Episode 2, "A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms," dropped a lot of bombs on us, and it dropped a major one on Daenerys Targaryen. She finds out the true parentage of Jon Snow, and her first thought is that he is the heir to the Iron Throne. This awkward conversation had the fans react to Daenerys' priorities, but Emilia Clarke thinks it was just fine. Read on!
In a recent interview with EW, Emilia defended Daenerys' reaction to the reveal. She broke her thought process down for us:
"The related thing, to her, is so normal. She could have easily married her brother. It's not a thing. It's a thing for Jon, but let's just forget about that. The main thing is we're up for the same promotion and I've been working for it for my entire existence."
She emphasized it a bit more:
"This is my whole existence. Since birth! Dany literally was brought into this world going: RUN! These f—ers [in Westeros] have f—ed everything up. Now it's, 'You're our only hope.' There's so much she's taken on in her duty in life to rectify. There's so much she's seen and witnessed and been through and lost and suffered and hurt to get here… and Jon doesn't even want it!"
Writer for the episode, Bryan Cogman had explained Jon's thoughts about the reveal, which contrast Daenerys' views:
"What really upsets Jon is that he's a blood relative to the woman he's in love with. Jon is taken aback when essentially the first thing she says is acknowledging that he has a claim to the Iron Throne. Kit and Emilia play it beautifully. It's a very difficult scene to pull off; so much has to go on behind the eyes."
Well, that just shows how different the two Targaryens are. What do you think about this? Talk to us in the comments, down below!
