Q: Avoiding duplication in Maven I've got a pom with a few profiles in.  For one of these profiles I want to add a module of server side test code for querying the database in some javascript integration tests.
I dont want this code to ship as it will be bloat aswell as possibly introducing some security problems.
The current setup we have is that there are basically 2 main profiles, which specify their own distinct module lists as well as quite a long list of properties.  We then also have a minification profile which gets run for certain builds.
This works by using the -P flag and supplying multiple: eg -P firstMainProfile,Minification
The new profile needs to just add one module but depends on some of the other modules and some properties.  I was hoping I'd just be able to do this:
    <profile>
        <id>Test</id>
        <modules>
            <module>TestCode</module>
        </modules>
    </profile>

and then just run it after the one which has the modules it depends on. eg
-P firstMainProfile,Test,Minification

However this doesn't work.  When it tries to build it complains about not being able to find the dependencies.
I could just copy the entire profile and add this extra module in but it going to cause me a maintainance headache and as its an acceptance/integration I want it to be setup exactly the same way as the other one.
Help please!  Is there something I can do with profiles to make this work?  Do I need to do something to the sub pom to list the dependencies? it currently looks like this:
<parent>
    <artifactId>artifact</artifactId>
    <groupId>something</groupId>
    <version>1.0</version>
</parent>
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>

<artifactId>TestCode</artifactId>

Update
I thought I had this fixed but actually all I've done is push the problem further down the line.  The project has a web module which as I understand it is basically just there to say what goes into the war file.  My new module wasn't going in there until I added it as a dependency of that project.  However now the new module gets built and shipped even if I don't explicitly build it which doesnt make sense to me and is the opposite of what i want.
It appears it is getting stored in my m2 directory when it gets built and so is getting pulled from there even if I dont build it.
So now it seems I need to duplicate the web project to change what gets deployed?  Is there some way of just making a dependency conditional to avoid having to do this?

A: There was a pretty long series of steps that needed doing.
Add dependency on other module(s) in the new module
I think I assumed that IDEA would sort out the dependencies for the project when I added an import to a class in another project.
I needed to add this to my new pom:
<dependencies>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>group</groupId>
        <artifactId>myOtherProject</artifactId>
    </dependency>
</dependencies>

Add meta information about the dependency to parent pom
I also needed to add a dependency in the parent pom in dependency management which defines the version for the other ones.
Add 'dependency' to deployment project
I also then needed to add a dependency to the webapp/war deployment pom that is activated by a particular profile (this seems to be the only way to have conditionality in maven?).
Avoiding duplication
Thankfully it appears that the dependencies list is additive so if you do something like this:
<dependencies>
    a
    b
    c
</dependencies>

<profiles>
    <profile>
        <id>Test</id>

            <dependencies>
                d
            </dependencies>
    </profile>
</profiles>

Then you end up with dependencies a,b,c,d if you use profile 'test'.  So you don't have to copy paste the whole lot and define 2 profiles to add one more dependency.
I also appears the same additive principal is also at work when you use other lists in maven.
I'm merging the basic set of modules (from 1 profile) and my test one and it seems to figure out the right build order.
My new profile looks like this.
    <profile>
        <id>Test</id>

        <modules>
            <module>TestCode</module>
        </modules>

        <properties>
            <environment>test</environment>
        </properties>
    </profile>

So I just specify the differences (as long as they are additive!).
It took a long time to figure it out but I'm reasonably happy with that solution even if it isn't really clear what is going on.

A: I don't have a clear understanding of your issue but I think you don't want to have to copy your <dependencies> tag in your Test module because it's very similar to your firstMainProfile module's <dependencies> tag?  If that's correct, you should import dependencies.

The examples in the previous section describe how to specify managed dependencies through inheritence. However, in larger projects it may be impossible to accomplish this since a project can only inherit from a single parent. To accommodate this, projects can import managed dependencies from other projects. This is accomplished by declaring a pom artifact as a dependency with a scope of "import".

<project>
  <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
  <groupId>maven</groupId>
  <artifactId>B</artifactId>
  <packaging>pom</packaging>
  <name>B</name>
  <version>1.0</version>
  <dependencyManagement>
    <dependencies>
      <dependency>
        <groupId>maven</groupId>
        <artifactId>A</artifactId>
        <version>1.0</version>
        <type>pom</type>
        <scope>import</scope>
      </dependency>
      <dependency>
        <groupId>test</groupId>
        <artifactId>d</artifactId>
        <version>1.0</version>
      </dependency>
    </dependencies>
  </dependencyManagement>
  <dependencies>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>test</groupId>
      <artifactId>a</artifactId>
      <version>1.0</version>
      <scope>runtime</scope>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>test</groupId>
      <artifactId>c</artifactId>
      <scope>runtime</scope>
    </dependency>
  </dependencies>
</project>

Assuming A is the pom defined in the preceding example, the end result would be the same. All of A's managed dependencies would be incorporated into B except for d since it is defined in this pom.

Running with this idea, it may be more straight forward to have your Test module be a child of your firstMainProfile module. That way it will automatically get these dependencies and you don't have to bother with importing.

Here are a few things to consider before taking a payday loan in Carmantown New Jersey.
Payday loans ordinarily have a ton of small print at the lowest part of the agreement. Make certain you examine and understand all of it prior to signing.
To avoid needing to obtain cash advances later, begin reserving an emergency situation fund of about $500.
In the event that you don't understand the best ways to save and budget your hard earned money, at that point you might just wish to get credit counselling in order to decrease the requirement for payday advances down the road.
Be sure that you acquire accessibility to your more recent employment pay-stubs alongside your checking account details.
Be mindful of bouncing checks in the event you possess not sufficient cash to repay a payday advance or cash loan lender. These types of expenses will build up quickly and may sometimes be pretty high. Furthermore, your financial institution could even charge you extra fees.
Instead of stretching out your payday loan and even getting hit with a fine for the reason that you forgot the date it was due , be certain you mark the date it's due on your calendar and pay back the payday loan in full.
To guarantee that you pay your payday advance on schedule, verify that you keep up on when ever the payday advance or cash loan is scheduled to be paid and make the necessary measures to make certain it is settled.
As dreadful as it may be to ask a colleague or relative for funds , it can turn out a lot better than securing a payday loan . If that is not an alternative, try applying for a credit card or any personal credit line before a short term loan , often times the fees on these are much less than what you would spend on a payday loan.
In the case that you believe that you've been addressed unfairly or dishonestly by any particular payday advance or cash loan lender, you may submit a grievance with your state agency.
Before procuring a cash advance, get in touch with the The Better Business Bureau in order to find out exactly how respectable the agency is and if it has any grievances.

Q: A question about the "size" of the neighbourhoods in which bundles are trivializable My question is about domains of trivializability of distributions on a smooth compact manifold. Assume that you have a sequence $\{E^k\}_k$ of $C^r$ distributions of rank $n$ which is $C^0$ close to a fixed $C^r$ distribution $E$ of rank $n$ with respect to a given Riemannian metric.
My question is that for each $x \in M$, can I find a uniformly sized neighbourhood $U$ on which I can trivialize all $\{E^k\}_k$ for large $k$, owing to the fact that they are $C^0$ close to a fixed distribution (and for $U$ I take it to be the nbd on which $E$ is trivializable), or do I need higher regularity other conditions. My initial idea was the following:
For each $x \in  M$, there is a closed neighbourhood $U$ on which $E$ can be locally, orthonormally, trivialized (in the sense that there is a collection of $n$ orthonormal $C^k$ vector fields $\{X_i\}_{i=1}^n$ spanning $E$ on $U$) . You can write $U$ as a union of finite number of $m$ close sets $\{U^k_l\}_{l=1}^{m}$ on which $E^k$ is orthonormally trivializable, with orthonormal basis of vector fields say;  $\{X^k_{i,l}\}_{i=1}^n$. Then my idea was to try to inductively "transform" these vector fields so that on any intersection  $U^k_l \cap U^k_m$, each $X^k_{i,l}$ is close to $X^k_{i,m}$ (up to reordering of $i$) so that one can patch these vector fields using a partition of unity subordinate to  $\{U^k_l\}_{l=1}^{m}$ without "losing dimension". But now, I am not sure that my initial idea on how to build this transformation was correct.
So my first question is whether if this is true, or if this proof could be completed or not or any reference to such questions or issues would be also most welcome. I have (almost) never come up on such estimates about neighbourhood sizes and so on or any usage of sequence of distributions to approximate other distributions for any specific reason as it seems such approaches are not common in geometry. So any reference on such works is also welcome as an extension of my question.
Thanks

A: I may not have understood your question correctly, but assuming that "distribution" stands for a $n$-plane field, any vector bundle over any contractible base is trivial, so you only need to make sure that your neighborhoods are contractible. Speaking about "size", you can introduce a Riemannian metric and take all $U$ smaller than the minimal injectivity radius.

Q: How to force re-download of page on back button click I have the following problem: I have two webpages, a.php and b.php. The first page displays a list of items from a database, and the other page updates it and sends the user back to the previous page (by using window.history.back()).
However, when I go from a.php to b.php, update some entries in the database and go back, the list does not update without reloading the page manually. Is there any way that would allow me to either detect when the page is loaded as a result of a back button action and reload with JavaScript, or just tell the browser to update it automatically?

A: Don't use window.history.back. Use location.href to jump to a.php.

A: You could set a.php 's headers to forbid any kind of caching - that way, the browser should reload the page when it re-enters it.
The most relevant HTTP response headers are Cache-control and Expires.

He's called "Clyde," a name for a polished young black and white American Staffordshire mix prince; at one year old he's full grown, compact at just 45 lbs., and so vibrantly athletic he seems to have his own built in steed. Clyde was adored by the kids at Camp Good Dog, he never outruns his own patience and he's proud to learn too; he'll screech to a halt to give a gentle kiss and a wag, sit for a treat, retrieve a tennis ball, walk beautifully with a harness, and kennel himself cooperatively when asked. (Clyde loves both you and treats — he's a joy to train, and he enjoys other dogs, too.) Clyde was found stray but he's already proven his flawless family dog status, we picture him in a home as lively and affectionate as he is, with kindergarten-aged kids and up, or simply a single person who'll dedicate as much lifelong loyalty as Clyde himself. See how it feels to hug 45 lbs. of happiness, and how brightly a one-year-old prince named Clyde can shine.
He's a declawed and neutered mystery man — big, strong and civilized, and he wears a black mask, too; but 2-year-old "Batman" isn't busy fighting villains, he's simply waiting for his new family to come along and take him back to the life he must surely have been accustomed to. Handsome Batman was turned in as a stray; he's laid back, gets along easily with cats, seems fine with dogs, and is intelligently sociable with people. He's more a conversationalist than a snuggler, but he enjoys keeping you close by, where he can defend you from wrongdoers, and that pesky boredom, too. Batman keeps his airy coat scrupulously clean and his space bat-cave tidy; and he'll give you a warm double wink to show his sense of well-being when you pet him. If your home's short a superhero Batman here's to fill the bill; see how fun it is to play sidekick to very own gentleman avenger, and love him as if he never belonged to anyone but you.

Boomer came to our rescue several months ago. He was very thin, neglected and kept outside. He has worked through some issues from having a rough start and we are thrilled to announce his adoption. Boomer is very much loved by his family who were fostering him and wanted to make him an official member of the family. Good boy Boomer, we are all very happy for you to have your own Happy Ending!
Toby found himself needing a new home a few months ago where he could enjoy having a big yard to run off all that energy. He really enjoys the company of other dogs so we helped him find the perfect home where he could enjoy both! Toby was welcomed into his new home where his family adopted another little scruffy girl from our rescue awhile ago, Nathalie Belle. The dogs are happy and so is Toby! Thanks to everyone who helped this cutie get his Happy Ending!
Little Jack is a senior who found himself looking for a new home a few weeks ago. As soon as we saw him, we knew we could help the little guy out! Jack is a little social butterfly, everybody loves Jack! He is a cutie and knows how to use that cuteness to his advantage. 🙂 Jack has a new family who adores him and he's been following his new brother around to get to know his new home a little better. Thanks to everyone who helped Jack get his Happy Ending!
Baby is a little senior girl who came to our foster program several weeks ago. Her family moved and she was not able to go with them. She is an independent little lady who knows what she likes! She now has a new family to call her own and she is very happy about that! Thanks to everyone who helped Baby get her Happy Ending!
These three all found a wonderful home together! Boots came from a farm where he had so much loss of fur from flea allergies, heartworm positive and so unhealthy his former owner was going to shoot him. Honey the cat came to us a few years ago, she has been one of our office girls greeting visitors and Lou, the cat came to us with frostbite to her legs and ear. All 3 of these sweethearts are healthy and filled with so much love. The opportunity came up where they could have a forever home and today is there day! Thanks to the foster families who helped these amazing animals get the care they needed to help them get their Happy Ending!
Tater recently came to our foster program, he needed to find a family who would be home more so this little guy wasn't sitting alone all day. He got his wish! His new family were so anxious to meet him. He has a lot of love ahead of him and more time with family, that's what he was waiting for….thanks to everyone who helped Tater get his Happy Ending!
Ella was welcomed into her new family with lots of love and belly rubs! She really loves playinig with her big four legged siblings. Ella is a timid girl, sadly we don't know what her background is other than she found herself at a high kill shelter. She takes some time to warm up and trust. She has a beautiful big yard to romp and play and we are really happy for her! Thanks to everyone who helped her get her Happy Ending!
Sweet little Hope was a former breeder who was being retired and either being sent to a shelter or being shot. She came to us with another little girl from the same breeder. Hope had horrible teeth with so much infection, she was in a lot of pain. After visiting her vet she is so much better and looking forward to her new home that is filled with so much love. Hope will never have to be afraid again. Thanks to everyone who helped this little girl get her Happy Ending!


Sporting Capital is the first social investment fund that focuses specifically on organisations and projects that help to develop communities through sport and physical activity.
Sporting Capital is a £3m social investment fund that focuses on supporting the development of community sports organisations into sustainable community sport businesses. The idea behind Sporting Capital is to use repayable investment - basically a simple, interest bearing loan - to help community sports organisations to do more, and in particular to create more sustainable revenue and ultimately impact.
The loans are flexible and can be used to support costs such as salaries, new equipment, internal fit out of buildings, new technology, marketing and business development.
The fund looks to enable charities and social enterprises who use sport to make a difference to grow, sustain and succeed. We recognise that social investment is new to many organisations and so will provide wrap around support during the application and beyond.
We can also support you to access grant support to help charities and social enterprises become 'investment ready'.

Q: Browser detection is not working I'm new with jquery. I tried to detect browser size using the following code and tried various ways  but it alerts yay whenever the browser is resized. I checked online and I couldn't figure out what went wrong with my code. Would anyone know why? I'm trying to detect the size so I could disable the area tag link on the image on mobile screen.
$(window).ready(function() {

    $(window).resize(function() {
        var wi=$(window).width();
        var he=$(window).height();
        if ((wi<=480) && (he<=568))
        {
            alert('yay');
         }
    });
});

A: use event if you want runtime resize it
$(window).resize(function(event) {
    var wi=$(window).width();
    var he=$(window).height();
    if ((wi<=480) && (he<=568))
    {
        alert('yay');
    }
});

and if you want make style for mobile you must create code in <head> like:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, height=device-height" />
<link id="stylesheet-tablet" media="(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px)" href="mobile.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet">

or use percent size
.wraper{width:100%;}
.wraper .child{width:50%}

or you can use bootstrapt UI Framework


Thanks to all those who wrote to councillors recently, calling on us to support ActionAid's Towns Against Tax Dodging campaign. I'm pleased to say that Norwich is with you, and last night passed a motion to support the campaign.
In my speech, I spoke about those Green politicians who have been working hard on this already, including Phillipe Lamberts, an MEP from Belgium who has been taking on the banks and insisting that country-by-country reporting of financial information ought to be mandatory. He is supported in Brussels by Sven Giegold, a German MEP and newly-elected South West MEP Molly Scott Cato, both of whom are expert economists who are using the influence they have in Europe to tame banks, curb tax dodging and make our financial systems work better for people and planet.
Closer to home, Green MP Caroline Lucas sponsored an Early Day Motion "General Anti-Tax Avoidance Principle" in 2012 and led the debate on the Fair Tax Mark, the label for good taxpayers.
I'm glad that Norwich City Council has joined the club through this motion, and that the leader of the council will be writing to George Osborne asking the government to listen to the strength of public feeling and act to end the injustice of tax dodging by large international companies in the UK.

SK Capital Sets Up Small-Cap Fund Of $400 Million
By Dan Anderson ● November 13, 2019
Private investment SK Capital Partners announced it has set up a small-cap fund of $400 million
SK Capital Partners — a private investment firm that is focused on the specialty materials, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals sectors — announced the final close of SKCP Catalyst Fund I (known as "SK Catalyst I") at its hard cap with limited partner capital commitments of $400 million.
SK Catalyst I is going to focus on control investments in the lower middle market utilizing the same sector-focused and operationally intensive investment strategy that SK Capital executed throughout its history. And the closing of SK Catalyst I — which was significantly above the initial $300 million target — follows the successful fundraising of SK Capital Partners V earlier this year.
"We are honored and grateful for the trust our investors have placed with our firm to support the inaugural SK Catalyst fund. The success of the fundraising was made possible by the strong relationships SK Capital has built with our existing limited partners and select new investors," said SK Capital co-founder and managing director Barry Siadat.
The fundraising for SK Catalyst I started in July 2019, shortly after SK Capital announced the expansion of its investment team. And the expansion allows the firm to devote additional resources to investments in the lower middle market in the specialty materials, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals sectors.
The SK Catalyst I investment team is comprised of experienced and industry-focused professionals, which is led by Managing Directors Mario Toukan and Jonathan Borell.
"We are excited to leverage SK Capital's strong reputation as a trusted partner within our sectors of focus. The addition of the SK Catalyst team and fund will enable the firm to pursue attractive lower middle market investments while enhancing SK Capital's overarching strategic objective to address a broader size range of opportunities in our space," added Toukan.
The SK Catalyst I fund will target lower middle market investments that generally require up to $50 million of initial committed equity capital and will complement SK Capital Partners V — which closed earlier this year with approximately $2.1 billion of capital commitments.
Both of the funds will utilize SK Capital's experience, best practices, and resources, including the firm's strong connectivity to people and companies in SK Capital's sectors of focus.
"The SK Catalyst investment strategy will bring a significant level of industry expertise, global resources and scale to lower middle market businesses. We look forward to partnering with management teams in our industries to help them dramatically grow and improve their businesses," explained Borell.
SK Capital's portfolio of businesses generates revenues in excess of $9 billion annually and employs over 10,000 people globally and operates 86 plants in 24 countries. Currently, the firm has about $4.6 billion of assets under management.
Kirkland & Ellis LLP served as legal counsel. And SK Capital did not use a placement agent for the fundraising of SKCP Catalyst I.

Laughter Yoga: Can Happiness Heal?
When it comes to laughter yoga, faking it 'til you make it is just fine.
At least, that's what Vishwa Prakash said at the start of the session that HuffPost's health news editor Amanda Chan and I wandered into recently.
It was one of a few guidelines Prakash offered, as well as keeping our eyes locked on our fellow attendees, some 20 men and women dressed in street clothes and standing in a circle in his textile design company's midtown Manhattan offices.
Prakash traded with other leaders who led us through several "exercises" -- we clapped, we milked imaginary cows, we blew up imaginary balloons, threw them on the ground, and exploded into laughter as we popped them with our feet. In between each set, we walked around clapping and chanting, "Ho Ho Ha Ha Ha!"
"It's bizarre, it's plain weird. Adults do not behave this way," said Sebastien Gendry, who founded the American School of Laughter Yoga, the country's largest laughter yoga training program.
"You laugh, you clap and you breathe," he continued. (You also drive imaginary bumper cars, pretend to be lions and hug perfect strangers.) "Suddenly you find yourself really laughing and you don't know why. It's fun, and you feel good."
The goal of laughter yoga is to breathe and to laugh, not because anyone has cracked a joke, but because laughter is a playful, social, contagious thing. The "yoga" label is a bit of a misnomer. There are no downward dogs or inversions, just people coming together, usually for free, for a short session of laughter. And it has become something of a global phenomenon.
According to Laughter Yoga International, a group led by the founder of Laughter Yoga and Mumbai-based physician Dr. Madan Kataria, there are about 6,000 laughter clubs across the globe. In the past decade, more than 400 have cropped up here in the U.S., and organizers expect a few thousand will celebrate "World Laughter Day" on Sunday.
How and why people find laughter yoga varies. Many come to connect with a community, Gendry said, others come for catharsis or to feel better physically.
Jody Ross, now a certified laughter yoga leader, started attending formal laughter workshops several years back to help heal herself. She had chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia and depression so severe she lost her job and lived, for a time, in a homeless shelter.
"I went to a seminar on laughter yoga, and I felt elated for hours later. I didn't have any pain," Ross said. "When you combine laughter and breathing, there's healing there."
Indeed, as research probes the intricacies of the mind-body connection, investigators have developed a particular focus on the possible health benefits of laughter. Some of the more prominent work has come from the cardiovascular arena.
Dr. Michael Miller, the director of the preventive cardiology program at the University of Maryland's Medical Center, previously investigated the effect laughter can have on the vascular system. In a study presented to the American College of Cardiology, Miller and his colleagues found that showing healthy adults a funny movie scene increased blood flow by more than 20 percent.
"I can tell you that if you have active emotion, it works," Miller said. "How that parlays into reducing the risk of heart attacks is still to be determined, and to what extent passive laughing, like a simple chuckle, makes a difference remains to be established."
Other studies have suggested that laughter helps burn calories and increases one's heart rate. In another, researchers from Japan found that laughter may help lower blood sugar levels -- a boon for diabetes patients.
But while such findings show promise, experts caution that the science is not fully there.
"The science of laughter is in its early stage," said Dr. Robert Provine, author of "Laughter: A Scientific Investigation." He explained that laughter is an ancient vocalization stemming from the panting of animals' rough-and-tumble play.
"It's difficult to separate the cognitive, from the social, from the physical aspects of laughing," Provine added. "Is simply going 'ha ha ha' going to give you the same presumed benefits of genuine laughter?"
We definitely had our moments of faking it.
"I had definitely never experienced anything like it before," said Amanda, who is notably nicer and more diplomatic than myself. "I must say, though, that the experience seems to be dependent on the sort of people there. Everyone was so into it and so enthusiastic. It made me feel more comfortable about laughing, too -- even though in any other circumstance, I would've surely felt self-conscious about just laughing for a half-hour straight."
As for me, I'd been dreading the class all week (I'm shy and a little prickly), but it wasn't as bad as I'd feared. I did genuinely lose it at the end, laughing so hard I cried as we lay on the floor, stared at the ceiling and guffawed together for minutes. And minutes. I couldn't get over how weird it was. Does that somewhat judgmental laughter count? I don't know. Amanda and I hightailed it out of there before the period when people chatted about their experiences.
Of course, one session can't give you much a taste of anything and the experts agree with Amanda -- it's important to find a club that feels right.
"It's really about community," said Marlene Chertok, a registered nurse and breast cancer survivor who has seen her St. Louis-based club grow from single to double digits in the past few years. "It's just a place where people can come in and laugh, regularly. It needs to feel safe."
And that safety can come even in the least likely places.
Rebecca Foster, who works for the Prison Mindfulness Institute teaching mediation and emotional intelligence skills in Rhode Island, teaches laughter yoga in men's and women's jails.
"The aggressive energy dissipates," Foster said. "You can't be tight and laugh at the same time. Who knows how profound a difference it will make -- it may not make any difference at all. But at the very least there's a sense that in this moment, in this one place, I can be a kid again."
And for all of the promise of laughter's health benefits, many not yet scientifically proven, that may be the method's greatest strength.
"Laughter feels good while we do it," Provine said. "Isn't that enough?"

Treacy, Seán
Coleman, Marie
Treacy, Seán (1895–1920), revolutionary, was born John Treacy on 14 February 1895 in Soloheadbeg, Co. Tipperary, son of Denis Treacy, farmer, and Bridget Treacy (née Allis). His father died when Treacy was three and the family went to live with his mother's brother, Jim Allis, in Lackenacreena, Hollyford, where he was educated at Hollyford national school and CBS Tipperary town. A prominent member of the Gaelic League in Tipperary town, he joined the IRB (1911), and in 1914, as a member of the Irish Volunteers, campaigned against recruitment for the British army. More interested in the military than the political side of the Irish revolution, in 1916 he tried unsuccessfully to join the Easter rising in Dublin and Galway, and was very disappointed by the failure of the insurrection outside Dublin. In 1916–17, along with Séamus Robinson (qv), he reorganised the Volunteers in Tipperary. His activities led to a six-month prison sentence in 1917, during which he was held in Cork, Mountjoy, and Dundalk. When he went on hunger strike, fears for his health led to his release under the cat-and-mouse act in November 1917. He was reimprisoned in Dundalk (February–June 1918), during which he undertook a ten-day hunger strike. In October 1918 he became vice-OC South Tipperary Brigade, preferring that the post of OC be given to Robinson. Along with Robinson, Seán Hogan (qv), and Dan Breen (qv), he was one of the 'big four' leaders of the IRA in Tipperary and was principally responsible for the killing of two RIC constables during an ambush to seize gelignite at Soloheadbeg on 21 January 1919, considered to be the first engagement of the war of independence. On 13 May 1919, in a successful effort to rescue Seán Hogan from police custody at Knocklong station, he shot dead two more constables and was himself shot in the throat and wounded, although not seriously. In autumn 1919 the 'big four' moved to Dublin, where they cooperated in the activities of Michael Collins (qv) and his 'Squad'; they were involved in unsuccessful assassination attempts on the viceroy, Lord French (qv), and the chief secretary, Sir Ian Macpherson (qv). Returning to Tipperary in early 1920, they led attacks on RIC barracks throughout the county, before going back to Dublin in September 1920. On the night of 11 October, Treacy and Breen were discovered by crown forces at the home of Professor John Carolan at 'Fernside', Whitehall, north of Dublin city. They fought their way out of the house, but two British intelligence agents were killed, Breen was badly injured, and Carolan was killed for harbouring them. A few days later (14 October 1920), the Squad had plans to target senior British military personnel who were expected to attend the funeral of one of those shot at 'Fernside'. When they did not appear, the Squad withdrew. However, Treacy had been spotted standing in the shop doorway of Peadar Clancy (qv) in Talbot St., and in an exchange of fire with British intelligence officers he and one of his assailants were shot dead. He had been due to marry his fiancée, May Quigley, on 25 October. He is buried in Kilfeacle graveyard, Co. Tipperary.

The Smithsonian Associates Civil War E-Mail Newsletter, Volume 10, Number 1
Every known society had some type of tax system—property tax, income tax, excise tax, use tax, estate tax, gift tax. In Russia, there was even a tax on urine and moustaches. Nobody likes taxes, and not many like the people who collect them.
The start of the American Revolution was an immediate reaction to England's Stamp Act, which imposed a tax on legal documents and newspapers. The motto was"taxation without representation," and the result was the Boston Tea Party.
The Colonists did not oppose the idea of taxation; they just did not want to send their money to support England. They recognized that taxes were necessary for things like the common defense, and maintaining the safety of their cities and towns. Once England was out of the picture, the Colonists had to install their own tax system in the form of poll taxes and taxes on property and certain farm products.
The United States Constitution later gave the power to tax to the Federal government"to pay the debts and provide for the common defense and general welfare of the United States." In the early years, the Federal government used customs duties and sales of public land for this purpose so that additional assessments were not necessary. A few local taxes were in place, such as taxes on carriages, liquor, salt, sugar, snuff, and later homes, land, and slaves.
The first income tax in this country was passed the second year of the Civil War. During the first year the Union raised money through use taxes on photographs, playing cards, feathers, telegrams, iron, leather, pianos, patent medicines and many other things. The manufacturer of the product was required to buy a stamp from the Treasury. When an item was sold, the customer paid the tax, a stamp was put on the product, then cancelled with a pen to show the tax was paid.
By 1862, the Civil War was costing the Union $2 million dollars per day and the government was desperate for money. Since it seemed most citizens were burdened with the many taxes already in place, a progressive income tax law was passed to more fairly spread the burden among rich and poor. The tax was 3% for incomes between $600 and $10,000, and 5% over $10,000. The taxes were withheld at the source by employers, just as they are now.
The first year only 3% of the population had to pay income taxes. This was at a time when the average incomes were: Union army private = $160/year, if paid at all; College professor = $800/year; School teacher = $360/year; Government clerk = up to $2000/ year if male; $1000 if female; Female army nurse = 40 cents per day or $146/year, but they rarely lasted that long on the job. None of these would have been subject to income tax, especially after the $600 standard deduction.
Congress found that passing an income tax law was easy. The hard part was deciding how to collect them. The law created the Bureau of Internal Revenue and former congressman George Boutwell of Pennsylvania was named the first Commissioner. He created the national system of collection districts. District assessors were appointed by the President. In less than a year, the Bureau of Internal Revenue had 60 employees in Washington and almost 4000 assessors and collectors in the field.
Except for the local postmasters, this was the first time that the Federal government had employees located in all the states. By establishing this district system, the collectors and their assistants would be local people who knew the areas and would not be so feared by their neighbors. Knowing that 11 states already seceded, the Federal government thought it best to retain control of the system rather than having the states control a powerful and lucrative bureaucracy. But that was a distinction without a difference to most people. As one senator put it,"there is little difference whether the rope is put round his neck by the local sheriff or by the U.S. marshal."
After the Civil War, the income tax was repealed and eventually it was declared unconstitutional. The Supreme Court confirmed that the Constitution allowed the Federal government to assess taxes proportionately based on the population of each state, not directly on individuals.
However, as the United States transformed into a powerful and wealthy nation with a modern economy, the high tariffs and nuisance taxes that replaced the income tax hurt trade and productivity. And, because what replaced the income tax were regressive taxes, they hurt the poor by reducing the national standard of living. It took wars, the Spanish American War and World War I, for the income tax to reappear and be made permanent.
But wasn't the income tax declared unconstitutional? Yes, but it just took an amendment to rectify that. It was done with the 16th Amendment. It's the shortest amendment, just 30 words:
The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration.
The form used to file, of course, is the Form 1040, named because it was the next government form issued after form 1039. The first returns were due March 1, 1914 when 350,000 were filed, with a 100% audit rate.
But not everyone paid taxes, even those who should have. Al Capone never filed an income tax return, and never owned anything in his own name. Al Capone was known to be involved in illegal gambling, prostitution rings, and murder. Because he usually killed the witnesses to these crimes, the government couldn't hold him on any charges until the 1927 Sullivan rule that said illegal profits are taxable income.
Eliot Ness was a famous investigator for Treasury's Bureau of Prohibition and had been trying to catch Al Capone for a long time. Although modern TV shows and movies make us think he eventually did, he didn't. It was an accountant named Frank Wilson.
Frank Wilson worked for the Bureau of Internal Revenue's Special Intelligence Unit. During another investigation, Wilson came across a ledger from a gambling house with a handwritten notation,"17% for Al." That and a few other facts were enough to convict Al Capone, not of murder, racketeering, or illegal gambling, but of five counts of tax evasion and failing to file tax returns.
In 1952, the Bureau of Internal Revenue got a new name, Internal Revenue Service. And, almost every year since then, Congress has changed tax laws in an effort to make the income tax law more fair. And the more fair they make them, the more complicated they become.
Oliver Wendell Holmes was a famous jurist and Supreme Court Justice whose life spanned the transformation of our country from rural to urban, from insular to international. He was wounded in the Civil War, and his grandfather fought in the Revolutionary War. He understood both tea and taxes. Holmes famously stated,"taxes are what we pay for a civilized society." He would have approved of protests and tea parties, as long as they remained civilized.

Police Department Photo Gallery
Team Sully
Team Sully is named in honor of Sergeant Steve Sullivan, who served with the Airports Authority Police Department from 1989 to 2009. He joined the department in 1989, and quickly became known simply as "Sully" to the men and women of the department. He rose to the rank of corporal in 2001. Sully was further promoted to sergeant in 2002, serving as a patrol supervisor at Dulles Airport.
He also successfully competed for appointment to the prestigious Special Response Team. Later in his career, he was selected as the commander of the Special Operations Unit, where he served until his passing. Sully was the heart and soul of Special Operations. He handled scheduling, assignment of work, and coordinating special details which involved the integration of both the Special Response Team and Special Operations Unit.
Sully was known as an "Ambassador to the World" in response to his natural ability to converse with anyone, from a subject under arrest, to foreign dignitaries under protective escort.
Sully was friendly and outgoing, along with being unquestionably dedicated to both his unit and department. In honor of his memory, and his tireless efforts in supporting Virginia Special Olympics, the Airports Authority Police Department bestows his name on our sponsored team during the Annual Dulles Day Plane Pull.

"In normal times, this mix would be reminiscent of a crazy year full of exciting club nights and festival experiences and those would have been the tunes that made us the happiest, touched us the deepest or blew our minds into the stratosphere. We'd say that it was a very good year, pop a bottle or two, and waltz together into the next one. But 2020 was different on so many levels it still makes me pinch myself on a daily basis. Luckily, the music played on. Not as loud as we were used to and in lesser company and smiling faces around us. Here are some of the tracks that kept my spirits up during this year. I hope they'll do the same to you" – Michael Mayer
As a DJ, producer, and remixer, Michael Mayer remains one of Germany's core celebrities in dance music. It's no secret that he spends his weekends traveling around the globe and back. Then, as a co-owner of Kompakt, he spends his weekdays deciding what will be released on the label and working with the label's artists. Amazingly enough, he manages to sneak into the studio on occasion to produce his own music and remix the likes of Pet Shop Boys, Depeche Mode, Foals, and Rufus Wainwright. It's safe to say he loves being challenged and regardless of the pressure is never putting less than 100% of his heart and soul into everything he does.
In spring 2016 Mayer released his 3rd full-length album '&' on K7, a passionate and personal collection of tracks he produced cooperating with soulmates like Barnt, Prins Thomas, Hauschka, Joe Goddard, Miss Kittin, Kölsch or Roman Flügel.
Shortly after he was set to contribute to the legendary DJ Kicks series, again for K7.
Since March 2018 he is hosting his very own radio show on WDR Cosmo.
In April 2020 Michael released his first solo 12inch in ages called 'Higher'.
