Toronto homeless sell hate propaganda
Simon Hayter for National Post
Victor Fletcher, publisher of the Toronto Street News, poses for a portrait in downtown Toronto
Joseph Brean, National Post · Aug. 15, 2008 | Last Updated: Aug. 15, 2008 7:06 PM ET
A grey-haired man, known on the streets as the General, stood in front of a liquor store with a stack of newspapers and a crumpled Tim Horton's cup, watching the passing customers through an artsy pair of glasses.
Most passed without eye contact. Some looked sheepish, even scared, or they shrugged to say they had no spare change. A few read the headline: "Beachers' White Racist Hate Attacks Expanding!!" And like every day at countless streetcorners across Toronto, the General sold three issues in a midafternoon hour, making six dollars, nearly minimum wage, and sparing himself the indignity of begging.
Since the passage ten years ago of the Safe Streets Act with its strict controls on panhandling, the Toronto Street News has become a popular alternative, selling 4,000 copies every two weeks across the city. Homeless people pay a nominal fee at various collection points, then sell it for $2 an issue.
But under this guise of charity, it has become the city's most prominent vehicle for hate propaganda, outrageous conspiracy theories, blatant plagiarism and libellous personal attacks, though virtually nothing about the homeless, all published at the whim of a man who lives a two-hour drive away in Ontario's farm-belt.
In the past year, the paper has claimed that Liberal MP Bob Rae's name was changed from Levine to hide his Jewishness and that Prime Minister Stephen Harper's secret true birthday is the same as Adolf Hitler's, which "looks good on a resume" for "New World Order types." It has claimed that a police officer covered up racist attacks on a shopkeeper, and even the editor admits one article was an illegal incitement to genocide against Jews. Ads are rare to non-existent, and often unpaid.
"It's a little left wing," the General said. "Real out there."
Barbara Hall, chief commissioner of the Ontario Human Rights Commission, calls it an "unpleasant rant," full of anti-Semitism and senseless paranoia that is contrary to the spirit, if not the letter, of human rights law.
"I don't like it. It's offensive," she said. "I suspect that a large number of people who open it would very quickly do what I did, which is say, 'This is scurrilous stuff' and throw it away... This is just using a group of vulnerable people to put out an offensive message, which is making them even more vulnerable."
"It strikes me that it's better than begging," said Mel Sufrin, executive secretary of the Ontario Press Council. At the same time, he said it fails almost every conceivable test for membership in his council.
The Canadian Jewish Congress has a longstanding file on the Street News, and in the last year has brought a hate speech complaint to the police, since settled without charges, and a human rights complaint against a columnist, now referred to a tribunal.
But even though the editor and publisher of the Street News apologized for a story that urged the killing of all "jew bankers," he remains unrepentant.
"For a homeless paper, I can get away with it, and have done that for ten years," said Victor Fletcher, 63, who calls himself a "one-man charity," though not a registered one, and a "hands-on reporter."
"I have the rare luxury of sounding off any way I want. I'm just amazed that people go out there and buy it. If they didn't want to buy the paper, they can give the homeless guy two bucks. But they don't, they want the paper, so there is an audience out there. It's amazing to me."
That audience, he said, is "upscale communities and a lot of women."
The story of the Toronto Street News is one of great compassion poorly focused. It involves a family feud, a massive fraud, a price war, a terminal illness, and a decade's worth of paranoid delusions.
But at its heart, it is the story of Mr. Fletcher, a watchmaker's apprentice who came to work in high-tech weapons assembly, and had a crisis of conscience when he realized that the world is controlled by a cabal of Masons and Zionists. As penance, he turned to the radical underground press, and eventually, thanks to the charity of Toronto's pedestrians and the salesmanship of its homeless, plus a lot of his own money, became the city's most prolific and persistent propagandist.
And now it is coming to an end. Mr. Fletcher expects that neither he nor the paper will be around to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Street News next summer. He says they will die for different reasons, but the one cannot live without the other. He calls the Street News an "act of frustration."
"I've been trying to stop it for years. It's something I feel I have to do, for some stupid reason," he said. "I keep being told a lot of people depend on it."
Richie van den Kerkhof sat on a stool, barefoot under his baggy pants, with an ashtray balanced on his knee. He produced a rolled up Ziploc baggie, the kind that bulk Indian cigarettes come in. He took the last one that was fully intact and squeezed a bit of tobacco back into the bag among the half dozen busted ones, then twisted the tip into a point. He held the smoke in his hand rather than his lips to light it, rotating the sealed end in the flame of a miniature Bic.
He said he grew in homes arranged by children's aid, and by the time he was a teenager around the millennium, he was in a world of trouble, vulnerable to drugs, prostitution and violence.
"A lot of other people went that way," he said.
But he met Angel Femia-Richmond, one of the Street News' main writers and distributors. She saved him.
A bohemian woman with colourful braids in her hair, Angel runs an outreach program called LoveCry from a cozy house behind a Jamaican restaurant, kitty corner to a strip club. She has written poetry and essays for all three of Toronto's street papers: the original Outrider, the upstart Outreach Connection, and now the Street News. She says it serves as both a creative outlet and as a stabilizing force in their lives.
"Artwork heals, period. Writing heals. I give them journals the minute they walk in the door," she said. Selling the paper "takes them out of sympathy. They become addicts because of sympathy. You want them out of sympathy... The input of positive energy is really good for these people. Panhandling just gives them negative energy."
Richie seems to think Victor has some exquisite sense for how far he can push things, that he takes his writing right up to the line, but not over. He says the proof is that he has never been sued.
"Some of the articles are very controversial, but it's the truth. He pushes back," Richie said. "He pushes whatever he can push, whatever people aren't paying attention to. He gets real upset sometimes."
Charity papers in Toronto were not always in the sorry state they are today.
Rod Goodman, 81, a long-time newspaperman who worked at the Globe and Mail and Toronto Star before becoming editor of the Outrider, said the goal was to create something good to read on the streetcar ride to work.
There was a sports column written pseudonymously by a Queen's Park bureau chief, sections on politics, culture and food, interviews with stars like Mike Myers, even two of the biggest bylines in Canadian letters, Robertson Davies and Margaret Atwood.
"We figured if we put enough different stuff in here, with something for everybody, it enables the seller to say, 'Look, here's something you can't get in other papers," he said. "We got a lot of professional respect."
That respect, ironically, was the beginning of the end for Toronto's homeless papers.
When it launched in 1993, mainstream media praised the new Outrider, comparing it to similar projects in New York and London. That coverage caught the attention of David Mackin, who recognized the publisher as his estranged father, Jim Mackin.
Briefly reunited, father and son soon fell into a dispute over money. David would later tell a reporter that he started the the Outreach Connection "out of total anger as well as helping the poor. I just wanted to go after him and stab him in the guts."
A price war followed, creating an environment in which Patrick Harold White — who introduced himself to David as a Prairie farm boy, but was really a fraudster and child rapist wanted by police from Regina to Halifax to Mississippi — was able to grab the financial reins of the Outreach Connection. By the spring of 1994, when David and his staff clued in that their new business manager was a crook, White had left with the money and the office furniture. The Outreach Connection continues to exist, but its presence is greatly diminished. Efforts to contact David Mackin were unsuccessful.
Mr. Fletcher said he started the Street News because, "I don't like people being ripped off, especially at the bottom end of society."
But Mr. Goodman, a former ombudsman of the Toronto Star, does not buy it, literally or figuratively.
"There's got to be a better product than this. I'd say, 'Here's a dollar. Keep the paper,'" he said. "That's not news. That's not street news. That's a message."
The current message at the Street News is that the Beaches area of Toronto, near where the paper used to have offices, is awash in the blood of minorities, spilled by "roving gangs" of "white agents."
A recent issue reported on a variety store owner, Kishore Muthreja, who closed his shop after a series of robberies, which he and the police say were done by teenage thugs, but which the Street News described as a racist campaign, supported by "white power" locals.
"It's just propaganda," said Paul Francis, a landlord who last month bought the building.
As a "Grenadian by birth and a Canadian by choice," he said he was offended by the loose accusations of racism in the Street News, and feels bad for the police officer held up as the scapegoat. "They just threw that guy under the bus," he said.
Constable Rob McDonald — "is he protected by secret society?" sic — said the criticism comes with the territory.
"If it was a legitimate news outlet, I would have great concern, and would be very quick to defend our actions, or what the truth really is, but then I don't think a responsible journalist would portray anything like that," he said. "I just wish they'd spell my name right."
Like the fraudster Patrick White, Victor Fletcher describes himself as a "Canadian farm boy," whose homestead is a beef cattle farm in Fergus, Ontario, a bucolic village near the university town of Guelph.
He learned watchmaking in the 1960s and worked in antique shops before being hired to make tiny weights for gyroscopes at Litton Systems, a U.S. defence contractor whose Toronto-area offices were famously bombed years later, in 1982. With his clearance, he also got work at Canadian Arsenals making weapons components.
"I just felt I was killing people," he said in an interview. He went to work for the Guerilla, an anti-war paper in the early 70s, and eventually set up a typesetting business, doing pamphlets and annual reports. He is divorced with no children.
"I take shots at everybody," he said. "Telling the truth is radical, you might say, these days, and that's what I feel I do... I project what I see and the conclusions I've come to."
So, who are the Zionists that control the media?
"Zionists are people who victimize Jews."
Are they in cooperation with the Masons who control Bay Street?
"At times, yeah. I can't walk down the street without the Masonic thing all over me, you know? They control 680 News."
How does he know Stephen Harper actually has Hitler's birthday?
"I'm satisfied I didn't make it up, okay," he said. "The New World Order types, they love to have somebody who would emulate that birthday and be chosen."
Why did he plagiarize an article about AIDS from the British Guardian newspaper, put his byline on it, and the false headline: Man-Made AIDS Virus Targets Blacks?
"I consider them a supporter of the paper."
Does he feel he is doing good for Toronto's homeless?
"The homeless come and go like flies. They either die, right? And I'm the last person who sees them sometimes, the last commercial relationship they had to the world is me. Or they finally get a room, get on welfare, and if the drugs don't kill them, they survive."
About a year ago, Mr. Fletcher's journalism finally got him into serious trouble.
He had printed, without permission, a piece from Hal Turner, a prominent American racist and anti-Semite, about a North American common currency. It read, in part: "Are you starting to grasp why so many things are going wrong lately? Does a lot of it start to make sense when put in the context of wiping out currencies in the name of globalization? It's the jew bankers, folks.
"Another jew banking scam designed to enrich the few at the utter devastation of the rest!...This is EVIL treachery on such a massive scale that the only proper response may be to simply KILL everyone involved."
"You can always tell you're dealing with a real intellectual by the number of capital letters they use," said Len Rudner, Ontario director of the Canadian Jewish Congress.
Faced with the CJC's police complaint, even Mr. Fletcher agreed this was hate speech, apologized in print, and promised to stop running columns by another anti-Zionist conspiracy theorist, Henry Makow, although he has recently started again.
Mr. Rudner said the CJC made a human rights complaint against Mr. Makow for describing Jews as a cancer, and it has been referred for a tribunal hearing.
"To ignore them is a form of encouragement," Mr. Rudner said.
He quoted Stephen Bronner, a philosopher at Rutgers University, as saying that the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, like other grand conspiracy theories, is "an idiot's answer to a very important question"
"The important question is why do things happen in the world... The idiot's answer is there is a conspiracy out there and they are controlling everything that happens in this world, and the net result is not only do you then have an answer that says, 'Aha, it's happening because of them.' But also, you are released from any responsibility or obligation for your own predicament."
Victor Fletcher is dying of cancer. He has only a matter of months to live.
"I'm just going to let it develop. I'm just tired of living. I'm so depressed," he said. "I wish I didn't know what I know... I'm disgusted with the world, you know? I don't want to go through operations and stuff. I've done my thing in this life. That's it. Goodbye. Goodbye, Charlie."
He said he has read about cancer of the bowel on the Internet, and his symptoms seem to match it. He has not been to a doctor for a diagnosis. He does not trust them.
"When I'm gone, it's gone," he said of the Toronto Street News. "It shouldn't exist. It's an anomaly. There'll never be another one like it."

What Every CMO Needs to Know About Testing
In the increasingly data-driven world of marketing, smart decisions rely less on the experience of a senior executive and more on smart analysis. But that doesn't mean a marketing team can excel without strategic direction. As traditionally campaign-focused teams begin to embrace testing, optimization, analytics and other methodologies, it's critical they receive appropriate support from leadership.
So what do CMOs need to know about testing to provide this guidance? Essentially, there are three important areas—based on the RPV framework outlined by Clayton M. Christensen—senior leadership must consider to enable their teams to succeed with testing.
From the beginning, testing requires some new resources. A testing tool, of course, must be implemented. Other software tools—including a separate analytics package, click or eye tracking, and a tag management system—may also be needed. This will require an investment both for the purchase of these platforms and also for implementation.
Beyond these obvious infrastructure investments, it's important to consider the time your team will have to invest for the proper execution of a testing program. Initially, this time investment may be fairly minimal. But as testing expands and variations become more complex, the time—and team—required will increase.

A huge benefit Brooks Bell provides clients is a complete testing team including an analyst, a UX designer, a JavaScript engineer, and a project manager—and this is an excellent model when considering the skill and staffing requirements for your own program.
For those interested in a quick overview of how testing works, there are many resources available. Most CMOs, however, don't need to worry about the details of setting up campaigns, creating segments, or calculating significance.
Instead, upper management must ensure the testing program is aligned with the goals of the business. By providing a framework for creating useful hypotheses and prioritizing test ideas in relation to KPIs, CMOs can establish functional guidelines for their team to work within.

Typically, values are thought of as ethical guidelines. While this is true, the term takes a broader meaning in this case. Specifically, organizational values define the way in which teams make decisions and establish priorities. "Clear, consistent, and broadly understood values," Christensen explains, "define what an organization [can and] cannot do."
Initiating a testing program often requires a shift in organizational values. Foremost is the freedom to try and fail—something that is particularly important in the early learning stages of testing. It's important, during this stage, to focus on learning from each test, iterating ideas, and working towards the first big win.
It can also be difficult for some organizations to transition from experience or intuition-based strategy to data-driven strategy. Instead of letting opinions dictate strategy, it's important to transform them into test ideas—then measure the effectiveness of each idea against one another.
READ MORE: Identify the five stages of testing culture.
Moving to a testing and optimization-based strategy can be challenging for teams accustomed to developing campaigns through assumptions and experience. CMOs looking to start a testing program, however, can maximize the chance for success and speed transition by focusing on the resources, processes, and values required to build a sustainable optimization culture.
We rebuilt our A/B testing program management software and are now offering it for free. Here's why.

US Pauses Plan to Give Virus Vaccine to Guantanamo Prisoners
WASHINGTON (AP) -- The U.S. is backing off for now on a plan to offer COVID-19 vaccinations to the 40 prisoners held at the detention center at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
Pentagon chief spokesman John Kirby said in a tweet Saturday that the Defense Department would be "pausing" the plan to give the vaccination to those held at Guantanamo while it reviews measures to protect troops who work there.
Kirby said no prisoners had yet received the vaccination. The plan drew some criticism after The New York Times reported that the vaccination of prisoners would start in the coming days.
"We're pausing the plan to move forward, as we review force protection protocols," Kirby said. "We remain committed to our obligations to keep our troops safe."
The U.S. military announced earlier this month that it planned to offer the vaccine to prisoners as it vaccinated all personnel at the detention center.
At the time, U.S. Southern Command said it expected to have enough vaccine for all of the approximately 1,500 personnel assigned to the detention center. It said that the vaccine would be offered to prisoners but did not plan to reveal how many actually received it because of medical privacy regulations.
There have been no reported cases of coronavirus among the detention center prisoners. Early in the pandemic the U.S. military stopped reporting cases at individual bases for security reasons.
The U.S. opened the detention center in January 2002 to hold detainees suspected of links to al-Qaida and the Taliban. Those who remain include five men facing a trial by military commission for their alleged roles planning and aiding the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.

America Dismantled Devastated Destroyed – WIF Fiction
Sci-Fi Writers (Not Gwen)
On How America
Ripped Apart
In American history, there are many incidents that could have drastically changed, or even destroyed, America. Altered versions of these "What If" events are a popular genre of science fiction called "alternate history." To help visualize their Alt-Histories, authors often supply maps of the ALT-USA… and that's precisely what we're going to take a look at today. Warning, though: Below Be Spoilers.
10. The Man in the High Castle
The Man in the High Castle is a TV show based on Philip K. Dick's novel of the same name. In this universe, history diverged from our own when Franklin D. Roosevelt was assassinated by Giuseppe Zangarast in 1933. This was based a real event, but in our history Zangarast missed FDR and killed Chicago Mayor Anton Cermak instead. In Dick's history Roosevelt was killed, and without him America struggled under the Great Depression and became extremely isolationist. This allowed the Axis powers of World War II (Nazi Germany and Imperialist Japan) to become victorious in Europe and in the Pacific.
By 1945, the Axis powers have invaded North America from both the Pacific and the Atlantic. A Nazi atomic bomb in Washington DC forces America's surrender, and the occupation creates the division of the United States between Germany and Japan; much like how, during our timeline, Germany was divided into the East and West. The events in The Man in the High Castle TV show take place in the 1960s, and maps show that Germany and Japan had split America between them with a small neutral zone separating the two.
9. Revolution
Revolution was an American post-apocalyptic NBC TV show that takes place in 2027. In this universe, a mysterious 2012 event called "The Blackout" caused all electricity to permanently cease to function. The show, produced by JJ Abrams, followed the survivors as they deal with the consequences of a world without electrical power.
After the Blackout, America descends into chaos and fragments as technology reverts back to pre-electricity, steam-powered tech. Most of the action in the TV show takes place in the Monroe Republic, which is made up of Northeast America. The character Monroe was able to seize power after setting up a tyrannical military dictatorship that takes away the guns of its people. The West Coast is dominated by the California Commonwealth, and Texas exists as a separate republic… which is pretty much par for the course. The Southwest is abandoned to the desert, and a reemergence of a nomadic lifestyle takes over in the Midwest Plains Nation.
8. Southern Victory
Celebrated science fiction author Harry Turtledove created an alternate universe called Southern Victory. In 1997 he released the first of 11 alternate history books, How Few Remain. In this universe, history diverges during the American Civil War (which you probably guessed based on the title) on September 10, 1862. In real life on this day, a Confederate messenger lost Top Secret Order 191, which outlined the South's invasion. With these secret plans, the North was able to check the invasion and slog on to eventual victory. In Turtledove's universe the secret plans weren't lost. This allows the South to successfully launch a surprise invasion and defeat the Union Army of the Potomac, and eventually the South captures Philadelphia. Capturing such a large city enables the United Kingdom and France to ally with the Confederate States of America, forcing an end to the war with the South declaring independence from the United States on November 4, 1862.
On the map you can see how America wasn't able to afford buying Alaska from Russia, and the Second Mexican Empire (which at the time was still ruled by the Emperor of Mexico, Maximilian I) crumbles into poverty. In our universe, Maximilian ruled Mexico until he was killed in 1867. In Turtledove's history the bankrupt Mexico allows the South to purchase the northwestern regions of Sonora and Chihuahua, giving them access to the Pacific. The series continues with North and South being mortal enemies who ally with other world powers to fight each other over the next hundred years.
7. Jericho
In the CBS TV show Jericho, a shadow government plans a coup via a nuclear attack on 23 major cities in America, using small bombs smuggled to their targets in cargo vans. After the bombs detonate, civilization breaks down and the American government is destroyed. The first season of the show dealt with a small town as it tried to keep its citizens alive during the aftermath of the nuclear attack.
The show pulled in low numbers and was canceled after one season. Jericho's fans revolted and launched an online campaign for CBS to do a second season, sending nuts to CBS (it actually makes sense in the context of the show, if you haven't seen it). Eventually, over 20 tons were mailed to the network. This online outcry was an "unprecedented display of passion in support of a prime-time television series." CBS caved and made a second season, where it was revealed that civilization had returned but the coup planners had only succeeded in seizing Western America, while Texas became independent (that seems to be a theme in these kinds of alternate histories) and the Eastern USA stopped enough nuclear bombs that some form of federal government survived the WMD attack.
Even with the successful nuts viral campaign, CBS still canceled the show after the second season. However, the universe lived on in comics, which revealed that the East and West USA fragmented into smaller nations while some parts of America were occupied by UN forces.
6. The Handmaid's Tale
Celebrated author Margaret Atwood first published her book The Handmaid's Tale in 1985. A 1990 film adaptation of the same name was released, and in 2017 Hulu adapted it into a critically acclaimed series. In Atwood's America, a polluted country is wracked by falling fertility rates, which cause huge civil unrest. A staged attack wipes out the President and most of the federal government. In the chaos, a Christian Fundamentalist movement calling itself the "Sons of Jacob" seize control. Some surviving elements of the government flee to the West, where America still exists, while east of the Rockies is ruled by a new government called "Gilead."
The new Christian theocracy decrees Baptists are heretics and brutally suppresses its followers, causing much of the American South to be in continuous revolt. Gilead is able to keep the remnants of America and the world at bay by threatening to use nukes that are seized after coup's success. A number of areas are radioactive, implying that there was nuclear sabotage or that Gilead demonstrated its nuclear might. Condemned criminals and opponents of the new regime (which are often one and the same) are sent to these areas as "clean up" teams, but due to their high mortality these men and women really face a death sentence.
5. Dies the Fire
Stephen Michael Stirling's Emberverse series spans 14 novels, with the first book Dies the Fire being released in 2008. More installments are expected as the series chugs right along.
In the Emberverse universe a mysterious event called "The Change" alters the laws of physics, throwing the world into chaos. After the Change, modern technology stops functioning, throwing the world back into the Iron Age, with people arming themselves with swords and bow and arrows. Large population areas collapse when food runs out, and from the ashes of urban centers emerge large cannibal groups that create "Death Zones." From more rural areas, city-states emerge. This is the universe that Dies the Fire sees for post-apocalyptic America.
4. A Canticle for Leibowitz
Walter M. Miller, Jr. first published A Canticle for Leibowitz in 1959. The award-winning book is considered a classic and has never been out of print. It's a post-apocalyptic story that takes place 600 years after a horrible nuclear war, which sparked a movement to destroy all knowledge called the "Simplification." During this movement, all books are destroyed except for some hidden away in a Catholic monastery, the Abbey of Saint Leibowitz, in the deserts of the American Southwest.
After all knowledge is wiped out during the Simplification, America reverts to tribal, feudal societies. Sometime in the 600 years after WWIII, the Catholic Church relocates from Rome, Italy, to New Rome, somewhere in the former United States. Surrounding New Rome are a number of Catholic papal states. Also emerging from the fragments of Western civilization are the Empires of Texarkana, Laredo, Denver. Back at the Abbey of Saint Leibowitz, the monastery keeps its vast collection of pre-war books and knowledge alive by painstakingly copying them by hand. From these books, civilization is reborn.
3. The Hunger Games
Suzanne Collins released the first book of her Hunger Games trilogy in 2008, and the novels were adapted into the blockbuster series starring Jennifer Lawrence as the story's heroine, Katniss Everdeen. Over their cumulative worldwide releases, the four movies pulled in almost $3 billion dollars. So… we're guessing you've probably seen at least one of them.
The Hunger Games takes place sometime in the future after a great war. Rising sea levels have swallowed up vast parts of North America, leaving a new nation called Panem to rise. This dystopian nation is divided into 12 districts that each specialize in specific goods or services.
A lot of the story takes place in District 12 (D12), which is thought to be in the coal-rich Appalachian region. D11 grows grain, and D10 raises livestock. Both are very large, given their tasks of feeding an entire nation. Close by is D9, which processes the food. D8 produces and treats textiles, while D7 specializes in forestry. D6 specializes in research and development, while D5 does genetic research. D4 is on or near the ocean, while D3 works with Information Technology and D2 specializes in weaponry and training peacekeepers. D1 produces luxury goods for the Capitol District and has a diamond mine – possibly the now-commercially closed Kelsey Lake Diamond Mine. The secret, rebellious District 13 is hidden away in bunkers thought to be in the Northeastern part of America.
2. Crimson Skies
Jordan Weisman and Dave McCoy created the Crimson Skies universe first for a board game released in 1998, and then a video game franchise produced by Microsoft Game Studios beginning in 2000.
History diverges from our universe when, in the 1930s, a series of deadly diseases devastate America and the country becomes increasingly isolationist to the point where the federal government devolves all power to the states, leading to the Balkanization of the United States into a series of small regional-states. With no federal government to pull the nation together interstate highways decay while at the same time aviation technology takes off. With a focus on air travel, roads and trains are abandoned in favor of the skies. With so many city-states there are many grievances, which quickly turn into open war. From the chaos of near constant warfare, large groups of air pirates raid commerce and other settlements.
1. The Walking Dead
The Walking Dead has been airing on AMC since October 31, 2010, and is based on a comic book series of the same name created by Robert Kirkman. Even with declining ratings over the last couple seasons, the show was renewed for a ninth season and Forbes' Paul Tassi has talked about how the series should catch up to the comic books by season 9 or 10. After that, Kirkman hopes the show will diverge from its source material (which it has already started to do, given a few major cast and character shakeups).
In this alternate reality, America has been overrun by a zombie virus that reanimates the dead. The story starts off with the main character, Rick Grimes, waking up from a coma to find the world overtaken by the un-dead. He and a group of survivors first go to Atlanta, and then after meeting another group head to the nation's capital, Washington DC – which is the general area around which the show now takes place. The main locations are the Alexandria Safe-Zone south of the capital, the Hilltop colony north of DC, and in the urban core of the city, Ezekiel's Kingdom. They fight against Negan and the Saviors, who are based east of Washington DC at The Sanctuary. Everything outside of these areas is more or less abandoned, given over to the hordes of the walking dead.
Oh, so that's where they got the title.

I try to respond to each one of them in a timely manner, but sometimes I look up and two hours have passed. Yikes.
The idea of form emails didn't appeal to me so inspired by a friend who has taken up blogging anew, I have decided to go old/new school and blog about the things people that prompt people to send emails.
Here is where I hesitate.
Blogging successfully is about consistency, creativity and clear purpose. It is a challenge I have been reluctant to go back to because, well, I have enough responsibilities.

Arrest of Foreign Nationals in Florida
Any non-U.S. citizen who is being arrested or detained is entitled to have the law enforcement agencies responsible for the arrest or detention notify their country's consular representatives in the United States. A consular official from their country may be able to help the, obtain legal counsel, visit them in detention, or contact their family.
In some cases, because of the person's nationality, the law enforcement agency might be required to notify the person's consular representatives here in the United States that they have been arrested or detained.
Although the United States recently formally withdrew from the "Optional Protocol" to the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations (VCCR), the notification obligations remain unchanged. Florida law creates special procedures governing the arrest and detention of foreign nationals, regardless of whether they are this country legally or illegally.
After the law enforcement officer determines the foreign national's home country, the officer should determine the mandatory notification requirements and whether notification must be made to the consulatre of the foreign national's country. Even if the foreign national's country is not on the mandatory notification list, the law enforcement officer must offer, without delay, to notify the foreign national's consular officials of the arrest or detention status.
The rules pertaining to the arrest or detention of a foreign national in the State of Florida can be found in Florida Statute Section 901.26. The statute provides that the "[f]ailure to provide consular notification under the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations or other bilateral consular conventions shall not be a defense in any criminal proceeding against any foreign national and shall not be cause for the foreign national's discharge from custody.
If the foreign national asks that consular notification be given, the law enforcement officer should notify the nearest consular officials of the foreign national's country without delay. The law enforcement officers should keep a written record of the provision of notification and actions taken.

Procedures for the Arrest of Foreign Nationals – Visit the U.S. Department of State web site to find instructions, forms, prepared statements, and guidance for the arrest and detention of foreign nationals and the mandatory requirements for notification of consular officials. Find the suggested statement to be offered to the foreign national and translations of the statement into selected foreign languages. The suggested statements apply when consular notification is at the foreign national's option and when consular notification is mandatory.
Guidelines for the Arrest of Foreign Nationals in the U.S. – Visit the website of the Florida Department of Law Enforcement to find special advisory guidelines for the arrest and detention of foreign nationals in the U.S. that were last updated on March 29, 2005. The article explains why the obligations of a law enforcement officer are unchanged when a foreign national is detained or arrest despite recent U.S. actions. Find a list of mandatory notification countries and jurisdictions including the special rules for persons who carry "Republic of China" passports issued by Taiwan, bearers of Hong Kong passports, bearers of Chinese passports, British dependencies who carry British passports, persons carrying U.K. passports or who indicate that they are from Great Britain, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland, nationals of its successor states of the former U.S.S.R.

Natasha Scott, 21, lost control of her Vauxhall Corsa after speeding near a farm in Ayr in July 2016.
A YOUNG mum sobbed today as she was jailed for three years for killing her boyfriend on a horror car crash.
Natasha Scott, 21, of Oakwood Avenue, Ayr, who had only passed her test 11 months earlier, lost control of her Vauxhall Corsa after speeding on the B7024 from Maybole to Ayr on July 24, 2016.
Scott failed to slow as she negotiated a hill crest and a left hand bend and her car ploughed into a fence, brick wall and telegraph pole before coming to a halt.
Twenty-one-year-old Kai, who was a rear seat passenger died, while three teenagers also in the car were left hurt.
One of them – a 15 year-old boy – needed major surgery to reconstruct his face following the crash.
Scott pled guilty to causing death by dangerous driving and injuring the other passengers.
Today at the High Court in Glasgow judge Lady Stacey told Scott: "You know your dangerous driving caused the death of Kai Milligan and you have to live with that knowledge.
"You also caused serious injury to another young man. The accident happened because you failed to negotiate a hill crest and a left hand bend.
Lady Stacey banned Scott from driving for five years.
Her defence counsel Barry Smith argued unsuccessfully that to jail Scott would breach her seven-month-old son's human rights.
Mr Smith added: "She will live with the consequences of her driving that day.
"She blames herself for causing the death of her then boyfriend Kai and injuring her 15-year-old friend.
The court heard that Scott and her five friends had been on their way to the shops in Ayr where the horror crash happened.
Seconds earlier they had been chatting and listening to music as they drove along.
The crash occurred on the B7024 near Blairston Main Farm in Alloway, Ayr.
Prosecutor Duncan McPhie said Scott had "increased her speed" and – at a hill crest – the car then became "airborne" before she lost control.
The court heard the Corsa started to "fishtail".
Scott tried to regain control, but her car spun and then smashed into the fence, wall and pole.
The 15 year-old boy was hit in a similar way. Scott, a 17 year-old girl and a 12 year-old boy managed to clamber free.
Crash investigators were not able to calculate exactly how fast Scott was travelling before the collision.
But, it was concluded she was going at "excessive speed" at the time.
The court heard Scott made no comment when quizzed by police, but did become "upset".
Scott sobbed as she was led away to begin her sentence.
The court heard that her son will be cared for by her parents.

Q: SELECT em uma tabela usando NOT EXISTS SQL (SERVER 2012) Estou tentando fazer um Select tb1 usando Where NOT EXISTS (select* tb2)
estou tentando selecionar a linha na tb1 que não existe na tb2 para efetuar um INSERT posteriormente.
Porém ao fazer teste no select ele não está voltando as linhas que não existem na tb2.
SELECT *
FROM TB1
WHERE NOT EXISTS(SELECT * FROM tb2)

A: tb1 precisa ter alguma coluna que referencia à tb2, mesmo que esta não seja uma constraint (a.k.a foreign key).
Então, digamos que tb1 tenha a coluna tb2_id que referencia tb2_id em tb2, você poderá fazer assim.:
SELECT *
FROM TB1
WHERE NOT EXISTS(SELECT tb2_id FROM tb2 WHERE TB1.tb2_id = tb2.tb2_id)

Você também pode tentar.:
SELECT TB1.*
FROM TB1
LEFT JOIN tb2 ON TB1.tb2_id = tb2.tb2_id
WHERE tb2.tb2_id IS NULL

E por fim mais uma alternativa.:
SELECT *
FROM TB1
WHERE tb2.tb2_id NOT IN (SELECT tb2_id FROM tb2)

Em termos de desempenho, o LEFT JOIN com IS NULL deve ser o mais lento, a diferença entre o NOT IN e o NOT EXISTS deve ser marginal. eu ficaria com o NOT EXISTS por ser semanticamente mais próximo do que objetiva fazer.
E caso você não tenha um indice para tb2_id em tb1, lhe aconselho à criar um, pois o NOT EXISTS será bastante afetado pela ausência de um.
Você pode ler mais em.: Should I use NOT IN, OUTER APPLY, LEFT OUTER JOIN, EXCEPT, or NOT EXISTS?
EDIT
Como você está utilizando um linked server, tente usar o comando OPENQUERY para consultar os dados do mesmo.
DECLARE @QUERY_QDE AS NVARCHAR(MAX)
SET @QUERY_QDE = N'SELECT C.[CHAMADO], , C.[COLUNA_1], C.[COLUNA_2], ..., C.[COLUNA_N] FROM [dbo].[TB_QDE_CHAMADO] C';

SELECT CHAMADO_QDE.*
FROM OPENQUERY([XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX], @QUERY_QDE) AS CHAMADO_QDE
WHERE NOT EXISTS (
    SELECT CHAMADO_AXA.[CHAMADO]
    FROM [_dbAXA].[dbo].[TB_QDE_CHAMADO] AS CHAMADO_AXA
    WHERE CHAMADO_QDE.[CHAMADO] = CHAMADO_AXA.[CHAMADO]
)

Neste caso, você terá de especificar todas as colunas na sua consulta, pois o OPENQUERY não entende um wildcard.
Por fim, [XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX] é o endereço do seu LINKED SERVER

A: Pois é, você está tentando selecionar linhas na tb1 que não existem na tb2, mas não é isso que você escreveu. O que você escreveu foi para selecionar linhas da tb1 quando não houver nenhuma linha na tb2 (NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM tb2)).
O que você precisa é identificar na sua subconsulta como é que você identifica que a linha da tb2 é "igual" à linha na tb1. Por exemplo:
select *
  from tb1
 where not exists (
        select *
          from tb2
         where tb2.tb2_id = tb1.tb1_id
       )

ou algo semelhante. Agora a subconsulta trará as linhas de tb2 que são "iguais" (no caso, via comparação das colunas tb1_id e tb2_id) à linha de tb1 que o select principal está considerando no momento. E então ela faz o que você quer.

A: Está faltando relacionar uma linha com outra linha da outra tabela.
Deveria ser algo do tipo e pressupondo que a id seja a chave de cada tabela:
SELECT
*
FROM
  TB1 t1
WHERE
  NOT EXISTS(SELECT * FROM tb2 t2 where t1.id = t2.id)

Dessa forma o select retornará linhas da t1 que nao existem na t2.

Q: Storing and reading large data files efficiently I am working on a project where I have large input files which come from numerical solutions of pdes. The format of the data is as follows.
x \t y \t f(x,y)

For each value of y, we have several values of x, and the function value evaluated at each point. The size of the data I'm dealing with is about [-3, 5]x[-3, 5] in steps of 0.01 in each dimension, so the raw data file is pretty big (about 640,000 entries). Reading it into memory is also pretty time-taking because the tools I'm working on have to read multiple raw data files of this type at the same time.
I'm using Python.
Is there any way to store and read data like this efficiently in Python? The idea is to include a tool that massages these raw data files into something that can be read more efficiently. I'm currently working on interpolating the data and storing some coefficients (essentially replacing memory by computing time), but I'm sure there must be an easier way that helps both memory and time.
Thanks SOCommunity!
PS: I saw related questions in Java. I'm working entirely on Python here.

A: If you're using numpy (and you probably should be), numpy.save/numpy.savez and numpy.load should be able to handle this pretty easily.
For example:
import numpy as np
xs = np.linspace(-3, 5, 800)
ys = np.linspace(-3, 5, 800)
f_vals = np.random.normal(size=(xs.size, ys.size))
np.savez('the_file.npz', xs=xs, ys=ys, f=f_vals)

is quite quick, and the resulting file is less than 5mb.

A:
Is there any way to store and read data like this efficiently in Python?

If you don't need to keep it in memory all the time, I would suggest migrating the data to an Sqlite database. This would also allow you making SQL queries on the data.

Q: Calculating Rotations Associated with Circular Motion Suppose a motorcyclist is driving at constant speed along a circular track and, suppose further, that a local coordinate system is associated with the motorcycle, where

*

*$x$ is tangent to the circle and oriented in driving direction

*$z$ is orthogonal to the circle in the point of contact and tilted by an angle $\phi$ against the vertical

*$y$ is the cross procuct of $z$ and $x$, i.e. $y=z\wedge x$

Question:
how can I calculate the angular velocities around the individual axes?

Maybe the question is to simple, but I'm no physicist and perplexed by the peculiarities of mechanics.

A: You construct a 3×3 rotation matrix from the components of the local axes as columns.
$$R = \left(
\begin{array}{c|c|c} \hat{x} & \hat{y} & \hat{z} \end{array} \right) $$
I think for your case you have
$$R = \left(
\begin{array}{c|c|c}
  \cos \theta & -\sin\theta \cos\phi  & \sin\theta\sin\phi \\
  \sin\theta & \cos\theta \cos\phi &  -\cos\theta  \\
  0 & \sin\phi & \cos\phi
\end{array} \right) $$
where $\phi$ is the inclination angle, and $\theta$ is the angle along the arc of track.
Usually you construct this from a sequence of rotations
$$ R = \mathrm{RotZ}(\theta)\,\mathrm{RotX}(\phi) $$
This is then used to transform vectors from local coordinates to world coordinates.
Since you are given that in world coordinates $\boldsymbol{\omega} = \pmatrix{0 \\ 0 \\ \dot{\theta}} $ (ground is along the xy plane), you can transform this to local coordinates with
$$ \boldsymbol{\omega}_{\rm local} = R^\top \boldsymbol{\omega} $$
But in the case where the tilt of the track changes, you can construct the rotational velocity vector, as a sequence of rotations
$$ \boldsymbol{\omega} = \hat{k} \dot{\theta} + \mathrm{RotZ}(\theta) \hat{\imath} \dot{\phi} = \pmatrix{ \dot{\phi} \cos\theta \\ \dot{\phi} \sin\theta \\ \dot{\theta} } $$
