Q: gmail api returning null for a specific history id. History id received from Cloud Pub/Sub push subscription From Cloud pub/sub push service i got a history id. Using that history id i am trying to read the recent mail's but It returns null.
I have configured cloud pub/sub push subscription and add a watch to "Unread" label.
Scenario 1:
I have received a push notification. From that push notification i have taken history id to get the recent messages. it's returning me null value.
Scenario 2:
I have logged into that configured mail id and then the message loaded in inbox. After that if i try to read i am getting the history list.

Please let me know how to read the full message using history id. when i receive push notification.

A: The Gmail Api documentation states that the Users.history:list method requires startHistoryId as a parameter to be executed, rather than giving you this parameter as a response. This is confusing, since it states as an optional parameter, but it is also specifies that it is required. The documentation also specifies:

The supplied startHistoryId should be obtained from the historyId of a
  message, thread, or previous list response.

I suggest you to test the methods you use first with "Try this API" and OAuth 2.0 Playground. This makes it easier to understand which parameters you need to supply and which responses you can obtain from each method.

A: I have dealt with this. The point is that the history_id you are receiving is to be interpreted like the "latest moment when something happened". So, in order to make this work, you MUST use a history_id coming from a previous execution (that, don't forget, in GMail Push API means that you have to implement the initial full sync, or at the very least you should be executing a second run of your partial sync), which will return the events that span from the previous history_id to the one you just received.
I have just published an article on medium, since the detail of the history_id, in my opinion, can be a little sneaky. Article is here.


The critics will say otherwise but the ordinary citizen of any country knows that when its children live in a vulnerable state, unprotected from their own terrors, that it is approaching a state of decadance, if it hasn't reached there as yet. The ordinary citizen also knows that when their adolescent sons and daughters are not safe in school, a place that's supposed to be safer than the church and even the home, then something is terribly wrong with that society.
After the tragedy in Jonesboro, Arkansas, last month, everyone from legal critics to psychologists, came running with their volumes of theories and phrases like " impulse-control-problem," trying to offer reasons for the tragedy, and totally missing one vital issue...that it was not about the two boys that killed or the guns they used, but rather, it was the American way of life that Americans celebrate ever so often, that was in action. It was the violence, which has long been an integral part of life in this country and its premier cultures, which was manifesting itself in young lives.
This violence that I refer, or the bloodbath that we witnessed last month in Arkansas is the direct result of the right to bear arms, sanctioned by this country's Constitution, and heavily guarded by powerful fringe groups like the National Rifles Association (NRA). While England passed a ban on private ownership of handguns after the massacre of sixteen school children and their teacher in Dunblane, Scotland, last year, to implement a similar ban in this country is almost impossible because here, unfortunately, we love our right to bear firearms dearly.
In every corner of the nation's communities, from the fractured home and disoriented classroom, to mass entertainment forums and wild city streets, antisocial behavior and violence continue to spread their arms, grabbing whatever comes in their way, and luring children into their appealing worlds of danger. New stands everywhere publicly display adult and gun magazines like Hustler and Soldier of Fortune; a naked woman spread eagled or the latest Magnum on a magazine cover can seduce the brain of an eight-year old in a flash.
High schools are plagued with students bent on aggression or having "attitudes" and everyday someone manages to sneak a switchblade, chain, knife or gun into a school. Cigarette and marijuana don't give that much excitement anymore because they pose no problem to transport. Fridays are billed for some kind of altercation outside of school, while any day suits teenagers who wants to "get busy" either in school or after school hours. It is a common sight to see students hanging out on trains long after one would expect them to be at home. The subway is just another playground for drinking, smoking, gambling, fights and occasionally, interfering with someone who appears quite easy to rob.
Then there is home, that save haven. Safe until the TV is turned on or a video game joystick assumes motion. Just when parents think that their children are safe on the inside, up comes mass entertainment with its blood sport video games, noisy, assaulting cartoon characters, and adult-rated movies, many of which kids still manage to see while parents are busy doing something else. All of these are programs heavily weighed with aggressive themes...even cartoon animation characters are always chasing and pounding upon each other. Where animation has lost its appeal of realness, the Ninja Turtles, Power Rangers and Mortal Kombat's characters like Sub-Zero take over. Today's kids are more likely to associate the names Leonardo and Donatello with green suited ninja warriors, instead of Renaissance art.
America has prided itself in its John Wayne-styled mannerism for much of the latter part of this century, and when the Duke fell, Hollywood's Rambo came forth blazing, only this time with a bigger and more efficient gun. Remember Taxi Driver and that famous, machismo, "You talking to me" jive? Then came a casket of horror movies like Friday the Thirteenth that set the pace for today's Pulp Fiction, Natural Born Killer, and Scream, making gunshot and knife stab "cool" enough to arouse young minds. Even the old bard Shakespeare sent us his Romeo (Leonardo De Caprio), this time with guns and poetry instead of swords and outdated attires.
It has been the belief among white folks that only in black urban America kids strike down other kids, until the last two years when white kids began to shoot at their parents, fellow students and school teachers. In some respect it reflects the echo we heard when the Federal building in Oklahoma City was detonated, and everyone thought an Arab was responsible until a white American Southerner was arrested. There are those among us who believe that the rise of white supremacy in the South is being reflected in these school tragedies, and that their weekend picnic trips that includes hunting, help galvanize a feeling amongst young boys that's its proper to bear and operate firearms. This is why it's easy for a humiliated kid to return to school with guns, and like Pearl Jam's Jeremy, to make a school a place where the "dead lay in pools of " red below.
Even in the arenas of sports and music there are negative vibes for children; both football and basketball are very physical games, and no good ice-hockey game is possible without a split lip or bruised eye. We all know how profitable and nurturing WWF wrestling is children...it's absolutely stupid and cruel and only forces young men to release their frustration in a dangerous manner. A few years back, young people who looked for healthier means to release their sense of alienation and frustration saw gods in their grunge heroes and rap stars, until even the stars of both sports and music started to distant themselves from the reverence they were receiving. Charles Barkley was quick to tell kids, "I am not a role model," and both Nirvana's Kurt Cobain and Pearl Jam's Eddie Vedder refused to idolize. Before half of the angry 90s was through, two of young America's most admired poets, Cobain, and Tupac Shakur were dead, both victims of gunfire.


Wellington, New Zealand — A miscommunication between the Vatican and New Zealand church officials resulted in an adventurous arrival for the prelate who coordinates a key commission of cardinals that advises Pope Francis.
Honduran Cardinal Oscar Rodriguez Maradiaga arrived Oct. 9 in Wellington. But New Zealand Catholic church officials were expecting him to arrive the next day after being given the wrong information by Vatican authorities.
Rodriguez Maradiaga, who on Oct. 3 finished a meeting with Pope Francis and the Council of Cardinals, endured the not unusual "bumpy" arrival into Wellington because of high winds, but there was no one to meet him at Wellington airport.
The taxi driver went to a Baptist church, and Rodriguez Maradiaga had to advise him to use his GPS to find the Catholic destination.
When he finally arrived, the cardinal was let into Viard House near Sacred Heart Cathedral by the parish priest, Fr. James Lyons.
New Zealand church officials checked if the other details of his visit were correctly supplied by Rome. They were.
After making the long trip, the cardinal said he was grateful to be able to enjoy an extra day in New Zealand.
During his visit, Rodriguez Maradiaga met with New Zealand's Catholic bishops, who were gathered in Wellington.

HBHA and UA Students Come Together to Prepare for 2018 Civil Rights Trip
Mirra Goldenberg
Slider image by Todd Clauer
Kansas City, Mo. – On Oct 23, Hyman Brand Hebrew Academy (HBHA)'s freshman and sophomore classes traveled to University Academy (UA) to meet students from their National Honor Society cohort in preparation for a civil rights trip upcoming in March of 2018. Since 2015, the two schools have partnered to study the Civil Rights Movement. This was the first of many meeting the current group of UA and HBHA students will meet in preparation for the upcoming trip.
The students were split into groups and introduced themselves to each other to begin the program. Following this, they participated in a few team building games. As the UA and HBHA students got to know each other, they were separated between two rooms to discuss stereotypes: the UA kids in one room and the HBHA kids in another. The HBHA kids discussed stereotypes for "Black people" in one room, and the UA kids discussed stereotypes for "Jews" in the other.
Reflecting on the experience, HBHA freshman Bree Katz explained, "When I walked in the room, I wasn't a fan of it right away. It made me really uncomfortable saying these things I didn't believe about a group of people I didn't even know yet." This was not an easy task for the students. They were urged to come up with stereotypes they had heard before even if they did not agree with it. "I didn't want anybody to get offended," Katz added.
The two groups joined together and brought out their lists for discussion. Both HBHA and UA students got to see what stereotypes the other group brainstormed about their respective groups. HBHA Sophomore Gavi Glickman said, "It was interesting to see what the UA kids' reactions were to our stereotypes because, when they made stereotypes for us, they were general things that I think of Jews also."
While the students sat together, they shared how seeing the stereotypes for their own group made them feel.
"I didn't feel uncomfortable during the exercise," said UA student Mahlet Getahun, "I've heard of all the stereotypes before; therefore, nothing came as a surprise to me." It was not easy for everyone to be completely open and honest about how they felt, but, nevertheless, students participated with energy and enthusiasm.
Numerous students shared which stereotypes were unexpected or hurtful. "A lot of stereotypes that were on [the "Black People" stereotype list] were that they had hard lives, so I figured they could sympathize with other people." However, Katz continued, "somebody got offended by that."
Some students felt more comfortable than others during this activity: "It definitely did not make me uncomfortable at all when they did stereotypes for us. There was nothing really that harmful about the [ones] they made," Glickman said. Some examples include "[having a] big nose or you dance a lot," contrasting to stereotypes shared relating to "Black People," including "growing up without a father [or] living in the poor neighborhood," he added.
This was a beneficial activity for the UA and HBHA students overall. "The program was honestly very eye-opening," said Getahun. Glickman states that '"we got an appreciation for how other people perceive us and perceive groups as a whole."
Katz got more out of the activity than expected: "I definitely think it put everything out in the open and it was good that we weren't ignoring the fact that there are stereotypes. I think it made our two groups a lot more comfortable with each other, knowing that that stuff is out there and we recognize it, but we don't believe a lot of that."
UA senior TateAnna Gravely-Moss said "this year's program seems almost identical to the one from two years ago," as this is will be her second year studying the Civil Rights Movement with HBHA.
"I feel that because I underwent a similar experience, my emotions weren't as heightened as they were the first time around. However, I did admire the maturity shown by both schools when it came to revealing the stereotypes to each other," she continued.
Overall, this program brought numerous benefits to both the UA and HBHA students. It helped with their understanding of common stereotypes and it was "important because the first step towards social justice is communicating hot topics, one of which being racial limitations and religion," said Gravely-Moss.

Q: Using OAuth2 with service account on gdata in python I want to use data.photos.service.PhotosService to push and pull photos from Picasa. I got a service key file XXXXXXXX-privatekey.p12 from Google console and am now trying to authenticate using said key with google.
The documentation for OAUTH2 using appengine has led me to believe that using the following would be of use:
f = file(settings.SITE_ROOT + '/aurora/' + settings.PRIVATE_KEY, 'rb')
key = f.read()
f.close()

credentials = SignedJwtAssertionCredentials(settings.SERVICE_ACCOUNT_NAME, key, scope = 'http://picasaweb.google.com/data https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.email https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.profile')
http = httplib2.Http()
http = credentials.authorize(http)
service = build("oauth2", "v2", http=http)
user_info = None
try:
  user_info = service.userinfo().get().execute()
  # neither of these two methods work
  #gd_client.SetOAuthInputParameters(signature_method = gdata.auth.OAuthSignatureMethod.RSA_SHA1, consumer_key = "asdfasdfasdf.apps.googleusercontent.com", rsa_key = key, two_legged_oauth = True, requestor_id = user_info.get('email'))
  #gd_client.auth_token = gdata.gauth.TwoLeggedOAuthRsaToken(consumer_key = user_info.get('email'), rsa_private_key = key, requestor_id = user_info.get('email'))
except errors.HttpError, e:
  logging.error('An error occurred: %s', e)

user_inf0 = {u'verified_email': True, u'id': u'1234', u'name': u'asdfasdfasdf@developer.gserviceaccount.com', u'email': u'asdfasdfasdf@developer.gserviceaccount.com'}

The issue is that either method 1 using SetOAuthInputParameters returns a invalid token, or method 2 returns a 403 restricted.
I am at my wits' end reading through mountains of code that all do regular 3 legged oauth when I really and truly do not want to do it that way. Any ideas/articles I haven't seen yet?

A: Use gdata.gauth.OAuth2TokenFromCredentials.
auth2token = gdata.gauth.OAuth2TokenFromCredentials(credentials)
gd_client = auth2token.authorize(gd_client)

OAuth2TokenFromCredentials is designed to help you use apiclient and gdata at the same time. Under the covers, it uses the credentials for making sure it has the auth information it needs to perform gdata calls.
Note, if you still get 403, it may be something else entirely. I was using a service account to access a user's data and was getting 403 because I hadn't spec'd the user properly in the SignedJwtAssertionCredentials call.
UPDATE: Here's the basic pattern I used:
from oauth2client.client import SignedJwtAssertionCredentials
credentials = SignedJwtAssertionCredentials(
    "XXXXXXXXXXX@developer.gserviceaccount.com",
    open("keyfile").read(),
    scope=(
        "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive",
        "https://spreadsheets.google.com/feeds",
        "https://docs.google.com/feeds"
    ), # For example.
    sub="user@gmail.com"
)
http = httplib2.Http()
http = credentials.authorize(http) # Not needed? See comment below.
auth2token = gdata.gauth.OAuth2TokenFromCredentials(credentials)
gd_client = gdata.photos.service.PhotosService() # For example.
gd_client = auth2token.authorize(gd_client)

A: If you are using MFA on your google account, you need to use the consent screen authentication method. With Picassa API, it does not work as is, as the request API is slightly different.
import gdata.gauth
import os
import pickle
import gdata.photos.service

clientid='xxx'  # https://console.developers.google.com/apis/credentials
clientsecret='xxx'
Scope='https://picasaweb.google.com/data/'
User_agent='myself'

def GetAuthToken():
    if os.path.exists(".token"):
        with open(".token") as f:
            token = pickle.load(f)
    else:
        token = gdata.gauth.OAuth2Token(client_id=clientid,client_secret=clientsecret,scope=Scope,user_agent=User_agent)
        print token.generate_authorize_url(redirect_uri='urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob')
        code = raw_input('What is the verification code? ').strip()
        token.get_access_token(code)
        with open(".token", 'w') as f:
            pickle.dump(token, f)
    return token

token = GetAuthToken()

gd_client = gdata.photos.service.PhotosService()
old_request = gd_client.request

def request(operation, url, data=None, headers=None):
    headers = headers or {}
    headers['Authorization'] = 'Bearer ' + token.access_token
    return old_request(operation, url, data=data, headers=headers)

gd_client.request = request
photos = gd_client.GetUserFeed(kind='photo', limit='10')
for photo in photos.entry:
    print 'Recently added photo title:', photo.title.text

Q: ECONNREFUSED error https.request I am trying to download or get a file on remote https server. I get the following error every time while other URLs are working.
{ [Error: connect ECONNREFUSED]
  code: 'ECONNREFUSED',
  errno: 'ECONNREFUSED',
  syscall: 'connect' }

I am using this code:
var https   = require('https');
var fs      = require('fs');

var url = '/portalfront/datafiles/miscellaneous/csv/kursliste_ws.xml';
//or:     '/portalfront/datafiles/miscellaneous/csv/kursliste.csv'
var options = {
  hostname  : 'dnb.no',
  port      : 443,
  path      : url,
  method    : 'GET'
};

var req = https.request(options, function(res) {
  console.log("statusCode: ", res.statusCode);
  console.log("headers: ", res.headers);
  res.on('data', function(d) {
      process.stdout.write(d);
  });
});
req.end();

req.on('error', function(e) {
  console.error(e);
});

I can fetch the url with postman.

A: To inspect request send by the browser you can use build in inspector. In network card you can see all the request data. The requested file should be there. If you look at the browser request headers, you will get similar results to this:
GET /portalfront/datafiles/miscellaneous/csv/kursliste_ws.xml HTTP/1.1
Host: www.dnb.no
Connection: keep-alive
Cache-Control: max-age=0
Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,image/webp,*/*;q=0.8
Upgrade-Insecure-Requests: 1

If-None-Match: "5365-5604f43f"
If-Modified-Since: Fri, 25 Sep 2015 07:14:07 GMT

If you look closely you will see the difference in a host. Change hostname from:
hostname  : 'dnb.no',

to:
hostname  : 'www.dnb.no',

Now you shold be able to retrieve an xml file successfully.


there ain't no need to go outside"
rainy days always put me in the cuddling mood. yet i have no one to cuddle with except my body pillow which nowadays has become my boyfriend. some hot chocolate, a good movie or book sound so good right now so i think im going to indulge in it.
i've started the 30 day poem challenge which i recommend all poets do. one poem a day everyday for 30 days. i'll post up the ones i feel are post worthy. sometimes some poems just need to come out, but they're not meant to be shared. but the ones that are, i'll make sure to write them up. this is the third time i've done this challenge this year. let me tell you, it never gets easier but it does get more rewarding. its also just good practice.
i remember having several relationship conversations with my friends. they would often tell me how they weren't ready for a relationship. and i never understood what that meant. i mean, if you find someone you like and they like you back then a relationship is the next step, duh. but now i've realized i don't think i'm ready for a relationship. mind you, i'm not a big fan of being single. i enjoy the freedom but not the whole temporary mini relationships with several people. u get close enough to people to decide if either of u want to invest the time, then if one person doesn't the other then has to figure out what to do with the developing feelings. it's just a lot of awkward. but i like relationships, at least the idea of them. and i used to be good at relationships when i was younger, go figure. now that i'm older and wiser, i'm horrible at them. but when it's raining, i wish i had someone to cuddle with. some couch snuggling, a good movie, some hot cocoa... oh it'd be so nice. but when it's not raining, ehh. i can do without. though it'd still be nice . i'm a big mess of contradictions.

But as Hideaki spends time with different girls, the ghosts of his past begin to haunt him, pushing him deeper into a hole of despair the more time he spends with each girl.

Q: ctable and siunitx: Last column does not center correctly (possible incompatibility?) I would like to use ctable in my thesis for tables and graphics and I also would like to use siunitx for formatting numbers and aligning numbers on the decimal marker in tables.
Everything seemed to work well until I discovered some strange behaviour in the last column. The heading does not get centered there (I tried the different settings for siunitx: table-alignment, table-text-alignment, in the preamble and for the specific column). It did not help.
ctable version is rev 26694, v 1.23;
siunitx is rev 29017, v 2.5p
This is my minimal example:
\documentclass[english]{book}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{babel}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{lmodern}
\usepackage{ctable}
\usepackage{siunitx}
\begin{document}

% Does not center the heading in the last column.
\ctable[]{
  |l
  |S
  |S
  |S|
}{}{
  \FL
  &         {Tom} &     {Suzy} &    {Rob} \ML
  Eating &      122.5 &     1.025 &     1.5 \NN
  Sleeping &    9.1 &       1346.5 &    213.7 \NN
  Working &     7.5 &       9.5 &       2.0125 \NN
  Watching TV & 5.25 &      117.5 &     7.5 \LL}

% Works fine with simple tabular
\begin{tabular}{
  |l
  |S
  |S
  |S|
  }
  \hline
  &         {Tom} &     {Suzy} &    {Rob} \\ \hline
  Eating &      122.5 &     1.025 &     1.5 \\
  Sleeping &    9.1 &       1346.5 &    213.7 \\
  Working &     7.5 &       9.5 &       2.0125 \\
  Watching TV & 5.25 &      117.5 &     7.5 \\ \hline
\end{tabular}

\end{document}

This is how it looks to me:

A: Just to close off the solution in the comments
Rather than change the preamble you can just change \ML to \tabularnewline \midrule which is the same thing, but works.

Boundary Wall Becomes Bone of Contention Between Temple Authorities, Villagers in Rajasthan
Ashish Gaur
Communal/Ethnic Conflict
Construction of boundary wall around temple premises
The residents of Silor village in Rajasthan's Bundi district are in conflict with Adishwar Jain temple over access to a common road. According to the Silor Gram Panchayat (Village Council), the temple administration is trying to construct a boundary wall along its premises, which will block a common pathway leading to the government school and the Charbhuja Nath temple in the village. Kusumlata Kushwah, the sarpanch of Silor Village Council told Land Conflict Watch that the dispute started in 2011 when the temple board first wanted to build a wall. She claimed that the land for the common path belongs to the Village Council and not the temple administration. Kushwah said that the residents and the temple administration had reached a consensus that no wall would be built. Nearly 4,000 villagers will be affected if the boundary wall is constructed, she said. Villagers allege in March 2019 the temple constructed the boundary wall, blocking the road. On March 6, the villagers got into an altercation with temple authorities and pelted stones at each other, in which six persons were injured. Later, a cross FIR was registered by both the parties at the Sadar police station. Sadar police incharge Amar Singh told Land Conflict Watch that the villagers had demolished the boundary wall and pelted stones, following which the Jain community in the village lodged an FIR with the police. A case was registered against eight people. The villagers also filed an FIR against the temple administration for stone pelting. Police had to deploy additional force in the area to avoid communal clashes. Later, senior police officials tried to defuse the tension by holding talks with both the sides to reach an agreement. According to tehsildar Bharat Singh Rathore, the district administration has directed both the parties to maintain status quo on the common path.

CipherTechs can assist your organization successfully deploy a Web Application Firewall to strengthen your security posture and protect against the threats of tomorrow.
A Web Application Firewall (WAF) is a tool that allows an administrator to create security policies around the context of a web application or web service. Instead of simply looking only at the networking details (IP addresses, TCP/UDP port numbers, etc.), a web application firewall is smart enough to be able to look at the requests and responses of a web application. In other words, a WAF can see the messages that make up the actual web application or service.
Web application firewalls are typically deployed by organizations with a web presence. They can be fully integrated into software management lifecycles and other operations an organization may have.
WAFs are used to see the behavior of your web application in greater detail and primarily to block attacks around the HTTP protocol. In the news today are data breaches involving attacks such as SQL injection, forceful browsing, web scraping and more. These are examples of some of the attacks WAFs can protect you from.
Additionally, you can integrate your web application firewall with vulnerability scanning vendors to do virtual patching – a process where the WAF automatically creates a set of policies to mitigate any discovered vulnerabilities.
A WAF can help protect your organization from many types of attacks.
A WAF can help strengthen security standards for compliance.

During my time here, I've learned that it's very important to listen to what others have to say, to communicate ideas clearly, confirm that everyone understands and then to move forward together.
CSG is a family. We work together and are constantly evolving and challenging each other – that makes CSG a fun and exciting workplace.
It's a positive culture of respect, appreciation and innovation. We work together as a team and we're always making sure to reinvent ourselves.

The duties of four elected officials — the governor, lieutenant governor, state treasurer and attorney general — include membership on the Missouri Housing Development Commission.
In that job, the politicians and six commissioners appointed by the governor annually award millions of dollars to developers in the form of tax credits, low-interest loans and grants to build low-income housing.
A political battle over the credits has continued for years, and has intensified with an effort to completely eliminate them this year. The stakes are high. For developers, the credits fund sometimes lucrative housing projects they say would be hard or impossible to build without them. For the officeholders involved, those developers have in turn become a significant source of campaign cash.
The 10 developers awarded the most tax credits over the past 10 years have contributed almost $3 million to state and local political committees reporting to the Missouri Ethics Commission. Of that amount, almost $1.2 million has been donated to Democratic and Republican politicians holding or seeking those four offices.
The biggest single recipient of the donations was Chris Koster, attorney general from 2009 to 2017 and the 2016 Democratic nominee for governor. Koster accepted $329,587 from the 10 developers. On the Republican side, the largest recipient was Peter Kinder, lieutenant governor from 2005 to 2017 and a candidate for governor in the 2016 GOP primary. Kinder took $267,851 in donations from the top 10 developers from 2008 to 2017.
Current governor Eric Greitens, a Republican whose campaign has reported $3,600 in donations from developers, is using his power on the commission to force changes in the program and on Tuesday he will get that opportunity. The benefit is the most expensive tax credit program operated by the state, with redemptions averaging $156.6 million annually over the past six fiscal years.
Former state Sen. Jason Crowell, a Greitens appointee to the commission and long-time critic of the program, won approval Nov. 17 for a plan that would offer no state tax credits in the current round of funding. The commission will meet Tuesday in Columbia to finalize that decision.
Crowell calls the donations and credit awards a pay-for-play system that won't be stopped until the issue is forced by a freeze on new state tax credit awards. The commission plan as adopted preserves awards of federal tax credits and other funding sources that do not directly impact the state treasury.
"I think the chances of a legislative fix with our actions are far greater than if we do nothing," Crowell said.
Columbia developer Jeff Smith, who has both received the most tax credit awards over the past 10 years and made the largest political donations, said he doesn't expect legislators to agree with the commission's action. The developers have never lost a legislative vote, Smith said.
The state tax credits are the only way profitable affordable housing can be built in many rural areas of the state, Smith said. Without it, new developments will likely occur only in larger cities, he said.
Smith took out a full-page advertisement in today's Tribune to lobby support for keeping tax credit funding.
The action that blocked state tax credits for the 2018 fiscal year was a commission vote on the annual allocation plan for credits and other housing funds. State Treasurer Eric Schmitt and Lt. Gov. Mike Parson, both Republicans, are among the top 10 Republican recipients of developer contributions over the past 10 years. Schmitt's representative and Parson cast the dissenting votes in the 6-2 action approving Crowell's plan.
Parson did not respond to a request for an interview. Schmitt spokesman Garrett Poorman wrote in an email that Schmitt was not available. In a recent interview with St. Louis Public Radio, Schmitt said he voted against both full state funding and Crowell's plan because of uncertainty in the federal tax code and whether all the federal programs will continue.
Attorney General Josh Hawley, who has taken $18,600 from developers, voted for the fully-funded plan, which failed on a 4-4 vote, and for Crowell's plan.
The housing commission has a variety of ways to fund low-income housing and in recent years, the Columbia Housing Authority has used all of them.
There's money the authority doesn't have to pay back in the form of forgivable loans and grants. The commission also has money it lends at low interest.
The programs that have provided the most support, however, are the tax credits. There are state tax credits and federal tax credits. The housing authority, as a not-for-profit public agency, does not pay federal or state income taxes and sells the credits to investors who take an ownership but not a management interest in the developments.
One form of state and federal credit, called a 4 percent credit, is issued for projects that also take on debt in the form of tax-free bonds. The housing authority has received $2 million in that form of federal credits and $1.9 million in state credits, along with $29.2 million in debt at 2.3 percent interest.
There is also a 9 percent credit, the largest program and preferred by private developers. Only one housing authority project has received an award of 9 percent credits.
Each type of credit gets its name from the portion of construction costs that can be taken annually as a credit against federal or state taxes. Under Missouri law, each development can receive as much in state credits as it receives in federal credits, and the credit can be taken for the first 10 years after the development opens to tenants.
Since its first state credit award in 2014, the housing authority has used Redstone Equity Partners of Columbus, Ohio, to syndicate its federal credits, authority CEO Phil Steinhaus said. Sugar Creek Capital, a company founded by Joe Shepard, husband of U.S. Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-Mo., has syndicated most of the authority's state credits, he said.
The federal credits were sold for 86 to 98 percent of face value, Steinhaus said. The state credits brought 48 to 60 percent of face value, he said. The difference, realized when the credits are redeemed, are profits for the purchasers.
Overall, the sale of tax credits to investors who own a share of the development has resulted in only 42 percent of the value in housing, according to a June report of the Governor's Committee on Simple, Fair and Low Taxes.
The committee proposed converting the tax credit into a low- or no-interest loan program, with loans forgiven if the regulations are met. To raise money the housing commission would auction credits, eliminating the need for ownership investment and potentially increasing the market price.
The committee also recommended that the housing commission issue bonds and repurchase outstanding credits, estimated at $1.3 billion total. The purchase could save the state 15 to 20 percent of the eventual cost, the report estimates. The final step to cut the program's cost would be to cap the total credits allowed each year.
The committee was the third in seven years to examine state tax credits. Gov. Jay Nixon, seeking to cap the credits, tried to force the issue in 2011 by having the commission issue just $75 million in 9 percent credits.
The tax committee's plan won't work for several reasons, Smith said. The market may be upset by the tax bill awaiting a vote in Congress, he said. The bill would raise the value of state credits and decrease the value of federal credits, he said.
The maximum value of a $1 state tax credit is currently as little as 60.4 cents because of the deductibility of state and local taxes, he said. A dollar paid to the state cuts federal tax liability by the top marginal rate of the taxpayer, which is 39.6 percent for the largest incomes. Using a credit means there is nothing to deduct.
The tax plan caps the deduction for state and local taxes at $10,000, eliminating the federal benefit of paying state taxes. That will raise the price of state credits to levels comparable to federal credits, he said. At the same time, the price of federal credits will fall, Smith said, because lower federal rates would mean less demand.
The loan program would create a tax liability for developers because a loan that is forgiven is counted as income.
"I think everybody knows that and has rejected that idea," Smith said.
The housing authority could not have done as much if it had additional debt liability on its books, Steinhaus said. Of the authority's 719 units, it has rehabilitated 360, has 237 renovations underway and wants credits to complete the final 82. The authority has also constructed the 25-unit Patriot Place to house low-income veterans.
Smith is the developer awarded the most credits over the past 10 years, $56.1 million, and he's given the most in donations at $1.1 million. Only $5,375 of those donations, however, can be found using his name.
From 2005 to 2008, Smith created 10 political action committees, giving them names such as Advocacy for Special Needs, Citizens for New Health Care Concepts and Alliance for Higher Education. Over the past 10 years, Smith has given each $4,500 to $15,500 per year, using a company he owns called Capital Health Management Inc.
The layers are not intended to hide anything, Smith said. His company is a registered corporation and his name is listed as president. Instead, he said, they are intended to make it more difficult for politicians eager for a donation to solicit money.
"All I have done is made that one step more difficult for people who want to take the easy route," he said.
The donations give him an opportunity to make the case for the tax credit program, Smith said.
Before the 2016 Republican primary for governor, Greitens asked for a contribution, Smith said. At the time, Smith had contributed to Kinder and former U.S. Attorney Catherine Hanaway.
"There was a request and I personally did not make a contribution," he said.
None of the other developers contacted for this article responded to requests for interviews.
The program has been politically hot since 2006. Sam Hamra, a developer who contributed heavily and raised money for then-Gov. Matt Blunt, wrote a letter to Blunt complaining that he had not received a large enough share of that year's projects in exchange for his support.
"That is when all this started to rise to a level of reform and the necessity of reform," Crowell said.
Former Sen. Kurt Schaefer, R-Columbia, attempted to speak at the February 2011 meeting that approved the limited program and was cut off. Schaefer, who was a candidate for attorney general in 2016, is second among Republicans in donations from the top developers. The Schaefer snub and the decision to issue only a portion of the allowable credits drew a backlash from lawmakers. Then-state Rep. John Diehl, R-Town and Country, filed legislation to move the commission from Kansas City to Jefferson City and sweep cash from its accounts.
The next step in ethics reform of the commission is to take the elected officials off, Crowell said.
State Sen. Jamilah Nasheed, D-St. Louis, is fifth among Democrats in contributions from top developers since 2008. She spoke against Crowell's plan at the Nov. 17 meeting. Her advocacy for the low-income housing tax credit program is based on the way it has helped the neighborhoods she represents in north St. Louis, she said. The contributions she has received do not mean she won't vote for a program that promises more housing or a cheaper cost. The key, she said, is to address the needs.
"I have always been unbought and unsold and I have always fought for the best interest of the people who cannot stand for themselves," Nasheed said.

Blac Chyna On Breakfast Club: Talks Sex Tape, Plastic Surgery & Kardashians
By Nada Mesh
Blac Chyna does a new Breakfast Club Interview and talks about her sex tape, body enhancements, Kardashians, and love.
Blac Chyna appears on The Breakfast Club to promote her new reality TV show and address some common topics linked with her. Charlamagne Tha God goes right into by asking her straight off the bat, about recent rumours of the fight she had with her hairstylist. Chyna keeps it vague, simply answering, "because of legal reasons I won't get into it." Charlamagne seemed insistent on addressing her beef though, going on to ask her if she thinks she has anger management issues, "it seems through the media, that you have anger mgmt issues" he says, referring to the altercation with the stroller thrown at the woman that happened last year. Chyna denies having issues and says of the matter, "nobody gonna touch my kids after I told you not to touch them," going on to deny that she had had any sort of altercation like that with Alex Skyy.
The topic of discussion moves on to her body enhancements, with DJ ENVY asking her if she has "any regrets about any of the stuff you've done." "Naw I don't have any regrets," replies Chyna, "not at all." Charlamagne proceeds to ask her why that is, pointing out that she has a large following of girls looking up to her. "That's just me," Chyna replies, "if I didn't go through this then I wouldn't be where I am, wouldn't be sitting here right now [..] I don't think there's nothing wrong with a boob job, if you feel uncomfortable, you should change it. I don't think nothing wrong with it at all if it makes you happy"
They then go on to talk about love, and address rumours that Chyna "falls in love too quickly." "It seems every week you with a different nigga," Charlamagne tells her. But Chyna denies that she falls in love quickly, and even that she was actually dating all the men she was linked to, "no listen, its nothing wrong with dating, like if I'm going out to dinner why we gotta be dating?" she asks, "if we walk out holding hands they'll be like 'oh they're datin'," she says, looking at Charlamagne.
On the topic of dating, the hosts question her about her recent relationship with Ybn Almighty Jay: "You was just smashing?" Charlamagne asks, with Chyna laughing and replying simply with a "yeah." "Were you in love with Rob?" they ask her, and Chyna replies instantly with, "yeah I was," continuing to say that the two are on good terms.
But the Kardashian questions don't stop there. The hosts ask her multiple questions addressing the Tyga/Kylie relationship (with Chyna admitting it was "grimy"), her opinion about Kim working towards being a lawyer (she had nothing to say on that), as well as the fact that she was still proceeding with her lawsuit against the family (which she indeed is).

Charlamagne then asks her about her sex tape, whilst Angela Yee laughs and describes it as "a lazy sex tape." "I'm sorry, I don't suck dick," Chyna admits, saying that she "doesn't have to," "I'm a starfish," she jokes.
They then briefly talked about whether she's dating anybody right now, and Chyna revealed she was not, "I'm not looking for nothing right now," she says, but admits that she sees herself getting married in the future, adding, "with two more babies too." Charlamagne continues, to ask her about her Future tattoo, and questioned whether the two dated. "Yeah we were talkin'..." she responds.
Charlamagne finally circles back to her boob jobs, asking her, "why did it take 4 breast jobs?" "I wanted them bigger and bigger," she explains proudly.

50 YEARS OF MULTICULTURAL MARKETING BREAKTHROUGHS
Today UWG, the country's longest-standing multicultural marketing agency, celebrates 50 years of pushing culture forward through insight-driven storytelling. To recognize this important landmark, UWG begins a year-long celebration.
Before the advertising industry understood the economic power of multicultural consumers, Byron Lewis, a young African American advertising executive, realized that the needs of a growing black consumer base should be reflected in an agency that best represents them. In 1969, Mr. Lewis founded UniWorld Group, Inc., forever changing the landscape of the American advertising industry and solidifying his status as one of the founders of multicultural advertising.
Today, Chair and CEO Monique Nelson has enhanced UWG's range of expertise to connect brands with the growing and diverse cultures in today's marketplace. She has evolved Mr. Lewis's original concept into UniCulture, a nuanced understanding of the multicultural audience mindset beyond the layers of race and ethnicity.
With today's minorities becoming the new majority, the role of multicultural agencies is even more important than when UWG was founded in 1969. To that end, UWG will add to its headquarters in Brooklyn and offices in Atlanta, Detroit and Miami by expanding its footprint to include a new Los Angeles satellite office, bringing its expertise and capabilities to the entertainment community this fall.
"UWG has experienced exceptional growth and gained extraordinary cultural knowledge over the last 50 years. I am extremely proud to be part of the UWG legacy," says Ms. Nelson. "As our society and industry continue to evolve, I am excited to be at the helm of a game-changing agency, full of cultural leaders who deeply understand how culture and social influence impact the way people live, work and interact with brands."
The agency's award-winning work has prevailed for five decades. Among UWG's most longstanding clients are Ford Motor Company (29 years), Colgate-Palmolive (23 years) and The Home Depot (18 years).
UWG industry milestones include:
2000: UniWorld Group becomes a strategic partner of WPP, one of the world's largest communication groups
2012: UniWorld Group names Monique Nelson as Chair and CEO
2013: Byron Lewis is inducted into the Advertising Hall of Fame
by the American Advertising Foundation
2014: UniWorld Group rebrands itself as UWG
UWG will release details about upcoming events and activities throughout the year.

Electronics components contain various metals – including tantalum, tin, tungsten and gold. These four metals are sourced worldwide, including the Eastern provinces of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), where millions have died in a civil war that has persisted for more than a decade. Armed militias profit from the trade of these metals in the DRC and nearby countries in the "Conflict Region"1.
We support the 2010 Dodd-Frank Act and the related U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rule that promote transparency and consumer awareness regarding the use of "Conflict Minerals"2 and seeks to cut direct and indirect funding of armed groups engaged in conflict and human rights abuses in the Conflict Region.
WTI does not directly purchase any Conflict Minerals from any source and does not knowingly procure any product containing Conflict Minerals from the Conflict Region. To the extent that WTI's value-added services offering may include the manufacture of various products that contain "Conflict Minerals" that are necessary to the functionality or production of the product, WTI is committed to working with our supply chain to increase transparency regarding the origin and traceability of minerals contained in products. WTI's due diligence is based on those described in the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas.
1 "Conflict Region" includes the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Angola, Burundi, the Central African Republic, The Republic of Congo, Uganda, Rwanda, South Sudan, Tanzania and Zambia.
2 "Conflict Minerals" include Columbite-Tantalite (Tantalum), Cassiterite (Tin), Gold, Wolframite (Tungsten) and any derivatives from these minerals.
