Hello, compassionate souls,
My name is Mehdi Vahedi. I graduated from Hamdard University in New Delhi India. I know Thaer from the university dormitory. I know Thaer since 2011. He was studying masters of computer science and I was studying Bachelors of information technology.
Currently I'm living in Toronto, Canada. I wish to help my friend Thaer by helping him rebuild his life. I'm planning to raise money for him. I will transfer the fund through western union to him. The following is Thaer's story:
I am Thaer Al-Habbash, a 35-year-old web programmer and a devoted family man from Gaza, Palestine. With a heavy heart, I reach out to you today to share the tale of my family's struggle amidst the chaos of war and displacement.
Life was once simple and content in our modest home in Khan Yunis. My wife, Enas, and our three precious daughters, Talin, Miral, and Nour, filled our days with laughter and love. However, the relentless bombardment and devastation inflicted upon Gaza have shattered our world.
The war robbed me of my job and rendered our home uninhabitable, forcing us to flee to Rafah, where we now seek refuge in the homes of relatives. But even here, danger lurks in every corner, with the constant fear of missiles and explosions haunting our nights.
Despite my aspirations of furthering my education and securing a better future for my family, the harsh realities of our situation have dashed those dreams. Yet, amidst the despair, a glimmer of hope remains.
I humbly appeal to your kindness and generosity to help us rebuild our shattered lives. With your support, I aim to travel to Egypt, where I can seek opportunities to provide for my family and pursue my dream of obtaining a doctorate in computer science. The journey ahead is daunting, with financial burdens weighing heavily upon us. We estimate needing approximately $100,000 (Canadian dollars) to make this dream a reality.
Your donations will not only help us escape the turmoil of Gaza but also pave the way for a brighter future filled with peace, stability, and opportunities. Every contribution, no matter how small, will make a world of difference in our journey toward rebuilding our lives.
Please join hands with us in this noble endeavor. Together, we can turn the tide of despair into a wave of hope. Thank you for your compassion and support.
Just watch the video
My family life
With heartfelt gratitude,
Thaer Al-Habbash and family

A. P. J. Abdul Kalam.
Avul Pakir Jainulabdeen Abdul Kalam (15 October 1931 – 27 July 2015) was an Indian aerospace scientist and politician who served as the 11th President of India from 2002 to 2007. He was born and raised in Rameswaram, Tamil Nadu and studied physics and aerospace engineering. He spent the next four decades as a scientist and science administrator, mainly at the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) and Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) and was intimately involved in India's civilian space programme and military missile development efforts. He thus came to be known as the Missile Man of India for his work on the development of ballistic missile and launch vehicle technology. He also played a pivotal organisational, technical, and political role in India's Pokhran-II nuclear tests in 1998, the first since the original nuclear test by India in 1974.

Chapter 203 Trivia
Happy 4th of July from Dr. Xeno*!
(*Indirectly.)
Fluorite mines still exist in Japan, however they're far inland so the KoS can't make use of their boat routes for transport.
Fluorite is one of the first materials shown to fluoresce (=glow when light/EM radiation hits it), which is what the phenomenon was named after!
One of the major problems in improving telescope quality is getting rid of chromatic aberration, which can be improved by using lenses with a lower refractive index (such as those made of fluorite rather than glass). This bends the light less, leading to clearer magnification.
The rocket design is similar to cruise missiles, in that it uses a jet engine rather than a rocket engine. Cruise missiles will follow an almost direct path to their target, and have the ability to adjust direction at any point. Ballistic missiles cannot.
The blocky thing shown here could be a stylized vacuum column tape drive, a device for storing data on magnetic tape (the black ribbon in cassettes) to be used in computations.
One of these devices is the IBM 7090, which was used by NASA to control space flights in the 60s.
The map shows that the KoS may be aiming to land around Goa in India.
Assuming they don't stop, the journey via the Suez is >10 days, and >23 days via the Cape of Good Hope.
The Banana Canal seems to be how the villagers remember the name of the Panama Canal, which is odd because bananas only grow in the very south of Japan (if at all) so they're unlikely to have been familiar with them before reaching South America.
The Suez is a man-made canal that gets drained and cleared every 10 years so the boats can pass through unobstructed. The area has also been mostly desert for thousands of years. Sandstorms would soon fill it in, making it impassable.
What Ryusui is worried about here is probably similar to the Ever Given back in March, when winds ran it aground, blocking the whole canal. It had to be dug out to be freed, which the KoS can't do here. Turning around or backing up is also impossible if the canal is too narrow.
Kohaku is the only power/fighter team member here, and she's definitely making sure to represent the hot-heads! Getting revenge on a canal, trying to destroy things…
Chelsea's old banners made a comeback, which isn't surprising since fabric is tedious to make. Reuse is the basis of Senku's science after all!
But more importantly, how the H-E-L-L did it survive those 7 years when everyone was petrified?!
The dam shown looks more like a beaver dam or a deliberate structure than something that naturally got packed like that. The way it follows onto the land is a little odd to me as well… Something could be hiding underneath?
Senku always makes sure to number his rockets.
(I spent too long wondering if this was a pun, but the i-shi/stone pun is for 1-4, and "Dr. One" doesn't quite fit how "Dr. Stone" is pronounced…)
The rocket has two sets of controllers, one used by Senku on the ship and the other by Ryusui about half way to the dam. It's unlikely that this choice is due to range issues, as the cell phones worked 80 km apart and this is only 20 km.
It's probably so that Ryusui can pinpoint the landing while Senku takes care of the launch.
The coordination between them is impressive!
India has likely been chosen as Math City because of its long history of mathematics dating back over 3000 years, before Europe had made similar advances. They invented many important concepts, such as negative numbers, the idea of zero, and decimal points.
The other option for India being Math City is that it has many natural resources useful for making computers and other electronics, however I think we'll have to wait until future chapters to see why they chose it!

“Col. Warden Recalls Hindu 'Invasion’,” Border Cities Star. February 16, 1933. Page 5. ---- Addresses Lions; Plan To Make Jobs Is Advanced ---- THE Koma Gato Maru incident in Vancouver in 1914 was related by Colonel John W. Warden, O.B.E., D S O., at last night's meeting of the Windsor Lions Club, held in the Norton-Palmer Hotel. The other features of the program were Edward Harding's plan for the relief of unemployment and the announcement that Dr. H. Irvine Wiley was chosen as the new district governor of Lions.
'"When war is in the offing," declared Colonel Warden, "nations who are anxious to go to war show it by their plans. Previous to the world war Germany planned against England. They sent 300 strikers out to the coal mines in British Columbia to bring on a strike a year before the war. This was done so that no coal would be available for the navy or commercial purposes.
"I was stationed there just one year then and it presented a delicate situation. We rounded up 100 men but we could not find the ringleaders. To find them we said that we were going out of town and we left town but waited just outside of the town. As soon as we had left 1,500 men gathered in one place and we were notified immediately. We came back to town and captured the ringleaders and had them brought up for trial. This was done in spite of considerable disturbance from the women folks.
Wishing to cause trouble within the British Empire Germany collected 350 Hindu deserters of the Indian Army, took them to Shanghai and sent them to Canada. British naval authorities were watching their movements and notified us in Vancouver. We were told to handle the situation with diplomacy and to avoid trouble.
'Canadian officials told us not to allow them to land by any means. When the boat, the Koma Gato Maru, pulled into the harbor took 20 sea-going launches and a tug out to meet it. The man in charge of immigration was not familiar with East Indians and lost their respect by going to them first. A man who was then a member of Parliament and is now a cabinet minister made the same mistake.
"They often promised to go back peaceably but their promises were only tricks to get supplies. '"Immigration officials sent 200 policemen out at midnight to surprise the Indians but they were waiting and drove the police away by throwing missiles of every kind down at them in the smaller boat. I was struck in the back with a large lump of coal and then they cut the grappling ropes.
'"Finally I went out to their ship and told them that if they did not leave by five o'clock we would bring a warship out and make them leave. The warship came alongside with men marching on deck and at two minutes to five they cast anchor and moved out the harbor under our escort. As we left them they took off their sandals and threw, them at us and spit at us.
"When they got back to India they started a riot and two-thirds of them were killed and the rest captured. Then the war started and I left but shortly afterwards our interpreter who had been threatened with myself was shot while in the courtroom.
"This is just an example." concluded Colonel Warden, "of how other nations seek to make trouble for Great Britain when they are planning a war."
A plan for the relief of unemployment was submitted by Mr. Harding and a committee was appointed to present it to the Border Chamber of Commerce. The plan has been tried and found sound in Rochester, New York, and now other cities are undertaking it. It calls for a canvass of all citizens and obtaining their pledges to spend whatever amount they can in the next three months on improving homes, factories, stores, buildings and grounds and for the purchase of new articles. In Rochester and Monroe County the residents pledged themselves to spend $6.026.351.95 during the next three months. The plan is designed to prevent hoarding of money and to create employment.
[AL: A remarkable display of the racist, classist, conspiracy theorizing of the Canadian military and political elite, especially the ‘small fry’ of this class - local administrators, politicians, police, prison, military and capitalists, the powerful on a municipal or rural level, who can only understand events in their time as the acts of agitators and foreign enemies. It’s clearly a post-facto argument, too, sort of like The Simpsons’ Moe claiming ‘even when I knew it was the bears, I knew it was them [the immigrants].’ People like Warden opposed to Sikh immigration or strikers didn’t hide behind ‘imperial Germany did it’ at the time - they just argued that White Canada had to keep out the wrong colour and punish the labour agitator. The implication here, too, is that the unrest of the Great Depression was being caused by the Soviet Union.]

Book Review: Wings of Fire
Hello Everyone, I am Janhavi patil. I am here to give you book review on Wings of Fire. Wings of Fire, an autobiography by Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, is a remarkable and inspirational account of one of India’s most celebrated scientists and former President. Co-written with Arun Tiwari, the book offers an in-depth look into Dr. Kalam's journey from a humble beginning in Rameswaram, Tamil Nadu, to becoming the "Missile Man of India."
The narrative is divided into four parts—Orientation, Creation, Propitiation, and Contemplation—tracing Dr. Kalam’s childhood, his education, his groundbreaking work in the field of aeronautics, and his eventual role as a national leader. What makes the book compelling is its ability to connect with readers on multiple levels, offering lessons in resilience, hard work, and the importance of dreaming big.
The writing style is straightforward, infused with a sense of humility and deep spirituality that reflects Dr. Kalam’s personality. Despite dealing with complex scientific concepts, the book remains accessible to readers of all backgrounds, thanks to its clear and engaging storytelling. Arun Tiwari’s contribution ensures that technical details are simplified, making the book both informative and enjoyable.
One of the standout aspects of Wings of Fire is its emphasis on the importance of teamwork and mentorship. Dr. Kalam’s acknowledgment of the contributions of his colleagues and mentors serves as a testament to his selflessness and leadership qualities. His ability to turn obstacles into opportunities and inspire others to work toward a greater goal is a recurring theme that resonates deeply.
The book also offers profound reflections on life, blending science with spirituality. Dr. Kalam’s vision for India’s development and his unwavering faith in the potential of the younger generation leave readers with a sense of hope and purpose.
Wings of Fire is more than just an autobiography; it’s a motivational guide that encourages readers to pursue their dreams with passion and perseverance. It’s a book that transcends boundaries, inspiring students, professionals, and leaders alike. Dr. Kalam’s life story is a testament to the power of determination, vision, and hard work, making this book a timeless masterpiece.
