Unemployed Mother Has a Message for Nancy Pelosi About the 'Crumbs' She's Getting from Tax Reform
By Jason Hopkins February 5, 2018 at 10:13am
In sharp contrast to what House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi believes, one average American couple revealed how much money they are saving from GOP tax cuts — the amount being much more than just "crumbs."
Appearing on "Fox & Friends," Connecticut couple Lee and Shirleyann Duprey shared a personal story Sunday of how recent tax reforms have helped them.
[jwplayer oPHALM7i]
"It's a little over $49 a week," Lee said when asked specifically how much he was saving. Every little bit helps his family's income, especially given that he lives in a high-tax state nestled in New England.
"Well, as we all know, we're one of the higher tax states," Lee explained. "Last fall, I had cancer surgery so I'm a cancer survivor. I have medical bills to pay so every little bit makes a huge difference."
Adding that she counts every dollar saved, Lee's wife was appreciative of the people who made it all possible — particularly President Donald Trump.
"I've always enjoyed any dollar amount increase in his paycheck, so … I said, 'Thanks Trump' and 'Thanks Republicans.' We'll take it."
Like so many struggling Americans, Shirleyann is unemployed and currently looking for work. The job search has been tough, but she has seen an uptick in employers looking for talent.
She claims her interview requests have shot up in conjunction with the passage of tax reforms, a clear indication that reforms have prompted U.S. companies to boost hiring.
Do you believe the tax reform bill is helping working-class Americans?
"A week after (President Trump) signed (tax reform), I got my first in-person interview and then two weeks ago, I got three in one week," she said.
"I've actually been able to apply to several jobs just this past week. There's been definitely more jobs available."
In comparison to the rest of the country, Connecticut has not witnessed a strong comeback since the Great Recession. The state, led by Democrat Gov. Dan Malloy and a Democrat-controlled legislature, experienced anemic economic growth last year.
Connecticut added only 7,700 jobs over the course of 2017, according to the New Haven Register. The state's unemployment rate stood at 4.6 percent in December, higher than the overall U.S. unemployment rate of 4.1 percent.
Outgoing Gov. Malloy remains deeply unpopular with his constituents. In fact, a Morning Consult survey reveals him to be most unpopular sitting governor in the U.S., touting an approval rating of 23 percent.
Watch: Biden Has Another 'Where's Jackie?' Moment as He Calls Democrat by Wrong Name 4 Times
The money saved in slow-growth Connecticut has helped Shirleyann's family by leaps and bounds.
"We're savers," she said of what she is doing with the extra dollars. "We tend to save and we tend to pay down debt. It doesn't just affect us. … We can help our children a little bit more — and grandchildren. It kind of spreads out for us in all different directions."
Not wanting to admit the benefits of the GOP-led tax cuts, Pelosi, a wealthy California Democrat, referred to the money saved by average Americans as "crumbs."
Her comment, which was in response to a spree of employee bonuses and raises, has since been widely derided by Republicans and many in the media.

Sandvik has launched its new Sandvik RH560 DTH hammer, which it says combines the reliability of Sandvik RH460 with the simplicity of Sandvik RH510.
"The enhanced air cycle and piston design deliver the higher striking power, while fewer inter- nal parts provide outstanding reliability, minimising failures and downtime," says the company.
The company says that in tests in varying rock conditions, the new design has been proven to deliver up to a 15% increase in penetration rate, with smoother collaring and straighter blast holes.
The hammer is said to improve reliability and economy through optimised air consumption, increasing power and improving lubrication. This enables the drilling of larger holes at the same speed as a smaller hole with a standard hammer, delivering further cost savings.

Supreme Court Rules in Favor of PennEast Pipeline Construction
Today, the U.S. Supreme Court removed a major roadblock for the $1 billion PennEast gas pipeline project. This ruling reversed a Third Circuit decision that project developers could not seize New Jersey-owned land for the pipeline. Despite the observed struggle in weighing the dueling positions during oral arguments in April, the 5-4 decision wound up favoring PennEast when it came down to it.
Since receiving FERC approval in January 2018, the project has faced a long series of legal challenges. Previously, a Third Circuit ruling held that eminent domain provisions in the Natural Gas Act do not trump New Jersey's 11th Amendment sovereign immunity from condemnation suits by private companies. PennEast attorney, Paul Clement asserted there is no sovereign immunity issue at hand because PennEast is essentially standing in the shoes of the federal government for the eminent domain process because the government has delegated that authority to the NGA. This position was backed by the Supreme Court; the PennEast pipeline will be able to complete construction here in the near future.
Because of the regulatory roadblock, the pipeline developer decided to build the pipeline in two phases – the first in Pennsylvania and the second in New Jersey. In the Pennsylvania portion of the pipeline, PennEast is expected to be operational in November of this year.
The Supreme Court's ruling allows the PennEast pipeline to build on state-owned land necessary for the critical infrastructure project's completion. Decisions as such bolster both state-specific and nationwide critical infrastructure that is so desperately needed during this time of volatile energy resources. The New Jersey portion of the line is expected to be completed in 2023.

Q: How can I start an instance from the new EC2 CLI? I have an ec2 micro instance. I can start it from the console, ssh into it (using a .pem file) and visit the website it hosts.
Using the old ec2 CLI, I can start the instance and perform other actions including ssh and website access.
I am having trouble with the new ec2 CLI. When I do "aws ec2 start-instances --instance-ids i-xxx" I get the message "A client error (InvalidInstanceID.NotFound) occurred when calling the StartInstances operation: The instance ID 'i-xxx' does not exist".
Clearly the instance exists, so I don't what the message is really indicating.
Here is some of my thinking:

*

*One difference between the old and new CLI is that the the later used .pem files whereas the new interface uses access key pairs.  The instance has an access key pair associated with is, but have tried all the credentials I can find, and none of them change anything).

*I tried created an IAM user and a new access key pair for it.  The behavior in all cases is unchanged (start from console or old CLI, web access, ssh) but not using the new CLI.

*I realize that there is a means for updating the access key pairs by detaching the volume (as described here), but the process looks a little scary to me.

*I realize that I can clone another instance from the image, but the image is a little out of date, and I don't want to lose my changes.
Can anyone suggest what the message really means and what I can do to get around the problem?

A: The problem had to do with credentials.  I had the correct environment
variables (AWS_ACCESS_KEY and AWS_SECRET_KEY) set. But they didn't match what was in my .aws/credentials file.  That is, despite what it says here, the new CLI worked only when I had the environment variables and
the credentials file correct and in sync.

A: Configure your aws cli with "aws configure" in new cli instance with region in which your ec2 instance reside. and then try to give the same command. The instance should start.

Aaron Barclay (born 21 October 1992) is a triathlete who represents New Zealand internationally. He competed at the 2010 Summer Youth Olympics in Singapore and won the first-ever gold medal awarded for the boys' event. Barclay also subsequently won a silver medal in the mixed relay event, competing for a team representing Oceania. The Games were the first time Barclay had competed outside of Oceania.

Biography and sporting record
Barclay's parents are Craig and Christine Barclay. He attended Gore High School. Barclay had been portrayed as being "visually impaired" and "disabled" as he chooses to race without contact lenses, something his coach said the triathlete was able to overcome without problem. However, this was later revealed as being only semi-true. Barclay requires glasses outside of competition, and had jokingly claimed to be half-blind without them on a questionnaire athletes were made to fill out for Infostrada Sports before the Games, which was picked up on and transmitted as being fact.

At his first international triathlon meet in Gold Coast, Australia in 2009, Barclay finished only 31st, but he improved to finish second in the Oceania Youth Olympic qualifiers before winning individual gold at the Youth Olympics. He won a further silver medal in the mixed relay event, teaming up with New Zealand teammate Maddie Dillon and two Australian triathletes to represent Oceania.

Barclay will take part at the 2010 International Triathlon Union Junior World Championships, before making a decision whether or not to turn professional. He considers Hamish Carter, gold medallist at the 2004 Summer Olympics event, one of his heroes. Barclay now currently is coaching the Macleans College Cycling and Triathlon team.

of violence, not its cause?
Who takes the stone's projection?
The moments slither by if you forget they're there.
hot sugared coffee, aroma of memory.
like blackberry spicing the air.
The people here are decent.
They smile to make conversation a pleasant bit of business.
They want me to feel safe, subdued.
They bring me coffee with sugar and plastic sticks for stirring.


A wedding guest had a shock when he discovered his distinctive £300,000 supercar had been stolen from outside a rural venue.
The bright green Lamborghini Aventador is still unaccounted for after it was stolen from the parking area outside a country barn-style wedding venue near Tadcaster in the early hours of Saturday morning.
It was last seen heading towards Halifax and has the distinctive registration plate RW24.
"Police are appealing for witnesses and information about the theft of a bright green Lamborghini Aventador, reg-number RW24, that was taken from outside a property on Featherbed Lane, Wighill Park, Tadcaster, between 2.45am and 2.55am on Saturday 1 September.
"The theft was reported by the owner, a man from Wakefield who was staying overnight in the area, at 12.34pm on Saturday.
"North Yorkshire Police is working with West Yorkshire Police as enquiries continue to locate the distinctive vehicle and trace the suspect. It is believed it was driven to the Halifax area following the theft.
"Anyone with information that could assist the investigation should call North Yorkshire Police on 101, option 1, and speak to the Force Control Room. Or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111. Please quote reference number 12180163488 when providing details about this incident. "

After facing scrutiny for enabling the spread of "fake news," Twitter cracks down on a campaign ad from a Republican congresswoman for its "inflammatory" content."
The company blocked a campaign ad for Tennessee Rep. Marsha Blackburn, who's running to replace retiring Sen. Bob Corker, according to the Associated Press. The ad was apparently blocked because Blackburn boasts in it that she "stopped the sale of baby body parts." Twitter reportedly deemed this an "inflammatory statement" and told Blackburn's ad vendors that the ad could run on the platform once that part of the ad was omitted.
Blackburn is referencing a misleading line of attack conservatives used against Planned Parenthood in 2015, falsely claiming the women's health care provider was profiting from the sale of fetal tissue research. Several government investigations cleared Planned Parenthood of any wrongdoing. A report produced by a congressional panel led by Blackburn included multiple inaccuracies.
Blackburn's campaign on Monday responded to Twitter's decision with another tweet, assuring supporters, "Silicon Valley won't stop our conservative movement with censorship."
Other conservatives like former White House press secretary Sean Spicer and Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney also slammed the site.
While Blackburn's new advertisement may use language that some would certainly call misleading and "inflammatory," Twitter's decision to block the ad stands in contrast to its more hands-off approach to other political content. Just two weeks ago, Twitter said it was not removing President Donald Trump's tweets threatening military action against North Korea in part because of their "newsworthiness" and interest to the public.
Twitter did recently note on its public policy blog, "Internally, we already have stricter policies for advertising campaigns on Twitter than we do for organic content. We also have existing specific policies and review mechanisms for campaign ads, but will examine them with an eye to improving them."
Twitter may be compelled to clarify its policies around political content later this month: Executives from Facebook, Google, and Twitter have been asked to testify in November before the US Congress regarding Russia's alleged interference in the 2016 US presidential election.

A New Name to Carry Our Club Forward
Following considerable discussion among the club's Executive Board, I am excited to announce today that Methacton United Soccer Club will be changing its name to FC Montco. While I will shortly outline several of the reasons behind the rebranding, our decision to move forward as FC Montco is firmly rooted in our belief that an updated identity allows the club to best serve the interests of all the children that participate in our programs.
As a parent, coach, family member or friend of the club, you may be asking yourself how do we serve the best interests of the players who make up our club? Simply stated, we must create an environment where every player, regardless of skill level, is exposed to an appropriate range of competition that helps them grow as a player and furthers their enjoyment of the game of soccer. This environment is critical across all four of our programs – intramural, DDP, travel and premier – and is best realized when we have multiple teams at each of the age levels in each our programs. For example, fielding only 3-4 teams per age group in our intramural program can lead to a less exciting playing experience as players face the same opponents week in and week out. Similarly, fielding only one travel team at each age group removes the natural competition that critically challenges our travel players to continue their desired developmental path. Again, we must keep our programs exciting and challenging across all four of our platforms by ensuring we have maximum participation at all levels.
So how does our new identity of FC Montco help us achieve that goal? It allows us to expand the potential number of families the club serves to drive higher participation across all of our programs. Over the past few years, we've seen meaningful growth at some of our older age groups from families that resided outside of Methacton School District. When asked why they had not considered our club earlier, they often indicated they thought Methacton United was a "small, school district based" club. This response has also been echoed in conversations many of our travel coaches have had with other clubs throughout the years. While we—all the members of Methacton United past and present—know just how untrue that statement is, we must also acknowledge that this perception may be preventing players and their families from considering our great club as their home. To overcome that perception, we must ensure that the families in the surrounding areas know that our programs are here to support the soccer needs of all of those in central Montgomery County.
By showcasing a larger geographic footprint in our brand, we hope to attract more players to the club. More players translate to more teams which in turn allows for greater competition and more diverse developmental opportunities at each our program levels. While we strongly believe that FC Montco will attract more players and families from many of the wider areas we already serve, we also remain keenly focused on continuing to serve the many families that already reside within the district. Methacton School District is where we are based and it is our hope that the FC Montco brand helps keep our best local talents in our program as opposed to them seeking out a "bigger name" club over the previously perceived "township club". We are fortunate to be located at the center of the map of Montgomery County and want to use that location as a tool to draw in families from Harleysville, Norristown, Phoenixville, Lansdale, Trappe, Limerick and beyond.
Let me close by acknowledging that any change, particularly one as significant this, always brings with it the question of further change. To that end, please be assured that nothing else is changing about the club we all enjoy participating in. We will continue to have the best professional trainers in the area. Andy Wilkes will remain our Director of Coaching and he is excited at the prospect of our continued growth and the many new kids that will learn to love the game through FC Montco. Andy will continue to be supported by both Liam Woods and Mike Marks and we are looking to add an additional trainer to our staff this year. Our primary playing/practice locations will continue to be Heebner Park, along with most of Worcester Township and Lower Providence Township. Finally, the costs to play on our teams will remain stable.
We are energized by the growth of our club and look forward to connecting with all of our families under the FC Montco banner in the spring of 2020.
Thank you and as always, if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Exchanges Round-Up: Price Spread and Institutions, Brazil Surveys Exchanges
In recent news pertaining to exchanges, Sfox has attributed a reducing spread in the price of BTC across exchanges to the increased presence of institutional investors in the cryptocurrency markets, Brazil's government has issued a questionnaire to three local crypto exchanges seeking to obtain data pertaining to their operations, and data from the United States Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has revealed a steady decline in bearish pressure on the BTC futures markets in recent months.

SFOX Finds Increased Institutional Presence is Driving Down Crypto Price Spread Across Exchanges
Research conducted by Sfox has asserted that a larger presence from institutional investors has reduced the spread in the price of BTC across various exchanges.
Danny Kim, head of growth at Sfox, claims that the current spread in BTC prices seldom exceeds one-tenth of one percent, asserting that "Before institutional firms were actively trading crypto or heavily involved (before 2018) bitcoin price differences between exchanges varied as high as 4.5%."
Among the institutional players are a number of high-frequency trading firms (HFTs), according to Mr. Kim, who added: "Some HFT firms have been trading since crypto 2014, but have limited themselves because the infrastructure wasn't there. Most if not all HFT firms require a FIX connection at an exchange in order to trade efficiently. Crypto exchanges haven't offered FIX connectivity until recently."
Mr. Kim predicts that in future the growing presence of institutional investors will have a stabilizing effect upon BTC prices, stating: "As this trend continues, the stabilizing effects of institutional investment will extend beyond price spreads, and on to price fluctuations."
Brazilian Government Questions Three Crypto Exchanges
The Brazilian Ministry of Finance has issued questionnaires to the three local cryptocurrency exchanges among the top ten largest by volume. The questionnaire comprises 14 questions ostensibly intended to "subsidize study to Combat Corruption and Money Laundering," according to a rough translation.
According to local media, one of the exchanges has completed and returned the questionnaire, another exchange claimed to not have received such, and the third exchange claimed that it would not respond to the letter as the questionnaire was not technically mandatory.
The majority of the questions pertain to the exchanges' compliance, KYC, and monitoring procedures, in addition to information regarding the accounts and employees of the exchanges.
CFTC Data Shows Record Lows for Shorting Pressure on Futures Markets
Data published by the United States Commodity Futures Trading Commission has revealed that the weekly number of short positions opened on the bitcoin futures markets continued to experience a significant decline during August.
For the week ending on the 21st of August, the number of non-commercial futures contracts of bitcoin totaled a net position of -1,266 contracts.
The number of bearish positions on the futures markets has consistently declined over the course of the ten weeks since June's high of -1,945.

Many metal control panels connect 0 Volt of the 12VDC supply to the metal box which in turn is connected to mains Earth. This literally means that the 0 Volt to your PIR`s, Keypads and LIM`s are directly connected to all water pipes and electrical appliances in the street! This allows RFI interference (and nearby lightning) to feed back from mains Earth onto the 0 Volt of your 12 Volt supply. Thankfully, this problem can be overcome by fitting an ACT 1166 High Frequency Earth Line Choke in series with the incoming mains Earth supply at the panel.

Story behind monument
« Symbolic Stork monuments in Russia
Russian memorial sculptor Ivan Petrovich Martos »
Black tulip memorial complex in Novokuznetsk
Opened August 2, 2007, Black tulip memorial complex in Novokuznetsk
Black tulip memorial complex
There is a beautiful memorial in the Siberian city of Novokuznetsk – Black tulip memorial complex. But most importantly, it's really a memorable place – always there are fresh flowers. Indeed, never deserted place, where along the very well-groomed and cozy memorial walk mothers and children, students and elderly people. In summer, you can hide from the heat in the shade of trees. For the present and future generations, it is an eternal memory of the heroes, of the countrymen! The square is very clean, light, and filled with an atmosphere of respect for the historical past of our country.
The stunning monument "Black Tulip" honors soldiers – residents of Novokuznetsk, who died in Afghanistan, Chechnya and other local wars. In fact, it is an obelisk and a mournful symbol – "Black Tulip". Also, a golden cross with a bell, a symbol of eternal memory and resurrection, raised to a height of more than 16 meters from the ground level. In addition, on installed four memorial plaques engraved the names of 85 soldiers, who gave their lives in military conflicts outside of Russia. The authors of the project Alexander Brichev and Anatoly Petrovich Mitrofanov, and sculptor Victor Gusev. The grand opening took place on August 2, 2007 in the park near the Siberian State Industrial University.
A golden cross with a bell, a symbol of eternal memory and resurrection
The idea of the monument came to the general director of "Architectural and planning workshop" Alexandr Brichev and the main author of the projects Anatoly Mitrofanov in the late 1980s. In particular, the symbolic sign of victory – a cross and a bell of memory express the idea of the victory of life over death.
A golden cross with a bell, a symbol of eternal memory and resurrection, is at a height of more than 16 meters from the ground level. The monument is framed on two sides by four memorial plaques, on which are carved the names of 85 names of Novokuznets, who folded their heads in military conflicts outside of Russia. The inauguration of the memorial complex took place on August 2, 2007 in the square near the SibGIU.

Loyalty Vindicated, New York, 1698.
Loyalty Vindicated from the Reflections of a Virulent Pamphlet called [A Letter from a Gentleman of New York, . . .
It was with great dread known, that the late King James was bound in Conscience to indeavour to Damn the English Nation to Popery and Slavery, and therefore no wonder (since he made such large steps towards it in his Kingdom's) that he took a particular care of this Province, of which he was Proprietor, and at one jump leapt over all the bounds, and Laws of English Right and Government; and appointed a Governour of this Province of New York, . . . giving him power with consent of any Seven of his Council to make Laws and to raise Taxes (as the French King doth) without consent of the People, . . . Hereby the will of the Prince became the Law; and the estates of the subjects became the Kings property. And this Governour and Council were the tools to inslave their Country, who pursuant to their Commission did make Laws and Assessed Taxes accordingly, without any Representatives of the People, . . .
This was the condition of New York, the Slavery and Popery that it lay under, until the Hand of Heaven sent the glorious King William to break those chains, which would otherwise have fetter'd all Europe. And these were the reasons that moved the Gentlemen concerned in the Revolution of New York to be early in shaking off their Tyrants, and declaring for their Deliverer.
These things premised do make way for the answer to the bold Assertions of the Libeller, who had the Author Printed the Letter ten years before, . . .
In the third page which is the first of the Letter, he declares that Jacob Leisler and his accomplices committed great disorders in the Revolution. And was ever Revolution made without them? What, must the noxious humours of the body natural be loosned and put a float, and very often with pangs and gripes, before the Medicament can officiate the discharge? and must not the body politick suffer a Convulsion to pluck up Spiritual and Temporal Tyranny that was taking root in it? . . .
A Lying building must have a lying foundation, and therefore the Libeller says, That Capt. Leisler, unwilling to pay the Duty of his Wines, stirred up the People to Rebellion. The case was thus, the Popish Collector Plowman was then continued in Office, and Capt. Leisler did, even with him, make entry in the Custom house for his Wines, and ingaged to pay the Customs to such as should be legally qualified to receive them, which the Papist Plowman was not.
And now the people being exasperated by the delay of the Governour and Council to declare for the Prince, the greater body of the Militia with their Officers did Seize on the Fort, and did send and demand the Keys from the Lieutenant Governour; and since they had taken the Government on them, they did Seize what Publick Moneys they could find; and took the Seven hundred Seventy three Pounds from Coll. Nicholson, which with great prudence they did Expend for the safety and defence of the Revolution: nor were the People Drunk or Mad: for no Man, Woman, or Child, was hurt by them even in the very Convulsion of changing the Government; nay the very Papists then in Office, and others who were justly suspected of designs of betraying the Country to King James's faithful Allic, the French King, had not a hair hurt, except by the fright their own guilt occasioned; . . .
False Assertions without proof are sufficiently answered them. This northern forehead answers himself: by denying for the Libeller says, the people cry'd out that they disowned all Government, and in the next line tells you, they proclaimed Capt. Leisler their Commander. . . . But had it been true, then Capt. Leisler as the only Commission Officer ought to Command them; and they were just and sober in their choice, as well as prudent in their Trust of so good and faithful a Person. But the fact of this was false, for Capt Leisler. though instrumental in shaking off the Tyrannical Government, did not believe he had a Title to govern longer than the Peoples Resolutions were known; . . .
Captain Leisler finding several Papists and false Protestants in the Town, like a prudent Officer kept good guards, sent parties to prevent any Conspiracy they might make to resume the Government, and to preserve the, Peace, which was dayly attempted to be broke by declaring for King James, and his Governour Sir Edmund Andross, and denying the Authority of the People, and Capt. Leisler intrusted by them, on which it was wisely done of Capt. Leisler to secure in the Fort those whom he found so troublesome to the publick Peace, and as the heads of them he Imprisoned the afore-mentioned famous Coll. Bayard and Mr. Nichols, but without barbarity they were confined, and not in a nasty Goal, but in handsome lodgings, such as now are thought proper for the Captain of the Guard, the Store keeper and the Secretary of the Province to lodge and keep Office in. It is true that Coll. Bayard was put in Irons, as he well deserved for his aversion to the Revolution, disturbing the Peace, and attacking Capt. Leisler (then Commander in Chief) in the open Street, as appears by several credible Oaths. Nor could it be safe to admit such fire brands to Bail; and therefore they were kept close from doing mischief, which is the part of all good Governments to do, and was most necessary in this Revolution. . . .
It is notoriously false that Capt. Leisler opposed the Collecting of the Revenue; indeed he was not willing a Papist should run away with our Protestant Kings Money, nor did he think it safe in Bayards, etc. hands. . . .
The Protestant Ministers, the Libeller saith, could not escape Capt. Leislers Malice and Cruelty: I am afraid those Ministers he mentioned, were Popish Trumpets, to Preach up the damn'd Doctrines of Passive Obedience and Non Resistance, and to noise in our Ears with their accursed breath, that we ought patiently to hold our Protestant Throats to be cut by the Command of a Popish King: and when Capt. Leisler with his friends had taken hold of that wonderful Deliverance offered immediately from God to Redeem His People from Slavery upon Earth, and Popish Damnation in Hell, to have false Priests of Baal get up, and use their wicked Eloquence to make the People believe a lye, even in the house of the God of Truth, and from the Pulpit, to tell these Captains of our Temporal Salvation to their faces, that being faithful to their God, their Country, and their Laws, in the defence of the Holy Protestant Religion, and the Rights and Liberties of English men, and their thankful declaring for the most glorious Prince upon Earth their Deliverer: was the blackest of Treason and Rebellion.
. . . and although a Reprieve was granted them [Leisler and Milbourne] by Coll. Slaughter, untill His Majesties pleasure should be known in the Matter: yet the Violence of the Jacobite party (of which sort were most of Capt. Leislers Judges and Officers of the Court)' was such that they gave no rest to Coll. Slaughter, untill by their Importunity they prevailed with him to sign the Dead Warrant. And they were Executed accordingly. So that the representation of the matter, with an account of their Reprieve, reached His Majesty at the same time with the account of their Execution and Death. . . .
So that this is the full and true account of this Tragedy: New York lay under the Curse of an absolute Government by King James's Commission to Sir Edmund Andros; the people took courage on the first News of the Revolution in England, and shook off the Oppressors, and declared for the Prince of Orange; . . .
It is evident in New York, and will soon be made appear to His Majesty, that the late Government of New York under the Administration of Coll. Fletcher' was a perfect sink of Corruption. And although he was exalted to that Government from a poor mean refugee of Ireland; yet he soon forgot the hand that raised him, and to satisfy his Soul, his Idol Gain, he made a fast friendship with the few Papists, Jacobites, and dissolute English of New York, who had opposed the Revolution and revenged themselves on Capt. Leisler; and who, to be supported in their hatred to the Loyal Williamites, and connived at in their open breach of all the Acts of Trade, found great advantage to reward Coll. Fletcher's friendship by Presents from themselves, and gifts from Pirates; and complyed with him, and consented to all things proposed to them by him; to the squandering Of the Kings Revenue and (to the great dishonour of the King) destroying all conveniences of a Succeeding Governour; and disposing of all the Lands in the Province, that not one Inch is left to be given in reward to any who may by their Services to His Majesty deserve, . . .

Two well-known Letterkenny dancers put on an electrifying performance to impress on Ireland's Got Talent in last week's show.
Static Movement, formed by Eric Roberts (27) and Vinny Mc Laughlin (26), showcased their mesmerising robotic routine in their audition for the TV3 talent show.
The self-taught duo have achieved fame for their dancing before, having received rave reviews on Sky's Got to Dance contest.
This time around, their performance on Ireland's Got Talent stirred some debate with the judging panel.
"I just felt like your dancing was a bit more slick," Denise told Eric.
Comedian Jason Byrne liked their moves, and was eager to see them undergo a costume change and 'bring back the tights'.
Static Movement were voted through by 3-1, with a big yes from Michelle Visage who liked their look.
Denise was the only judge to vote 'no', but when the judges put it to the audience, it was a resounding 'Yes'.
Speaking to Donegal Daily this week, Eric said the fast-paced editing of the show omitted some of their routine and more comments from the judges.
"Louie and Michelle both said we were the best dance act they had seen," he said.
The next step for Static Movement will be the semi-finals, and the dancers are looking forward to the challenge.
Static Movement are always on the move, performing at weddings, parties and events around Donegal. Fans of the dancers will be eagerly awaiting the next round of Ireland's Got Talent to see what high-tech moves they'll come up with next.
Other Donegal acts through on the first series of IGT are Carndonagh dancer and contortionist Lia Della-Friel and Ardara singer and drag artist Martin McGuinness.

July Was Officially The *Hottest Month* Ever Recorded!
By Mark Kaufman 5 months
July 2019, marked by persistent, historic heat waves, was the warmest month ever observed in 140 years of record-keeping, according to new data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
NOAA's confirmation of the hottest-recorded month follows similar conclusions from both European Commission analysis and the climate research organization Berkeley Earth.
"Much of the planet sweltered in unprecedented heat in July, as temperatures soared to new heights in the hottest month ever recorded," the agency wrote. "The record warmth also shrank Arctic and Antarctic sea ice to historic lows."
Because July is typically the warmest month of the year on Earth, a record-breaking July would likely mean the warmest month ever recorded, explained Deke Arndt, chief of the monitoring section for NOAA's National Centers for Environmental Information, in a call with reporters. This certainly turned out to be true for July 2019.
Climate extremes in July 2019
Image: Noaa
July 2019 was remarkable in breaking an all-time record, but it also perpetuates a stark long-term trend. "This is the 415th consecutive month warmer than the 20th-century average," Arndt noted. This means that anyone born after 1985 has never experienced a month of average weather.
Though significant swaths of the Lower 48 states experienced either normal or cooler-than-average temperatures (particularly the Northwest and large portions of the Plains), twice as many daily warm records were set as cold records in the contiguous states.
"This is the 415th consecutive month warmer than the 20th century average."
Matters, however, were extreme in Alaska, the nation's fastest-changing state. July was the warmest month in the state's history, with all-time record high temperatures toppling across the northern state. Hot temperatures mean conditions ripe for fire. Some 2.44 million acres have burned in Alaska this season, an area nearly twice the size of Delaware, noted Rich Thoman, a climate specialist with the Alaska Center for Climate Assessment and Policy at the University of Alaska Fairbanks. This isn't nearly record-breaking, but part of a trend in increased Alaskan wildfire.
Most regions of the Earth, including both land and ocean, were above average in July 2019. Warmth was particularly significant in Alaska, Greenland, Europe, Africa, and parts of Asia and Antarctica.

— Robert Rohde (@RARohde) August 15, 2019
This July, which was globally 1.71 degrees Fahrenheit above the 20th-century average, helped perpetuate a significant decline in Arctic sea ice: "Average Arctic sea ice set a record low for July, running 19.8% below average — surpassing the previous historic low of July 2012," NOAA concluded.
2019 is now "virtually certain" to be one of the top five warmest years on record, explained NOAA's Arndt. Already, each of the last five years have been the five hottest years on record.
The relentless warming trend is being driven by a clear physical reality: Atmospheric carbon dioxide — the world's most important greenhouse gas — are at their highest levels in at least 800,000 years. The pace at which these CO2 levels are rising are breaking records, too. Paleoclimatologists found that carbon dioxide concentrations are rising at rates that are unprecedented in both the historic and geologic record.

January 10, 2021 at 8:15 pm PST
Actor John Reilly, a fixture on daytime television screens for more than 40 years, has died at the age of 86, his daughter confirmed via social media on Sunday.

Reilly also voiced archer Hawkeye on the animated "Iron Man" series from 1994 to 1996 and had a recurring role on "Beverly Hills 90210" between 1996 and 1998, USA Today reported.
Reilly is survived by his wife, Liz, and three daughters.

My journey so far
My journey with Holiday Extras (The Apple Booking Company as they were then known), began back in 1992 when they approached me to design and build a booking engine for their Parking, Hotel and Insurance businesses. A key requirement of this system was to enable Travel Agents to make bookings electronically from their shops, without having to pick up a phone and ring the ABC call centre. The system went live in 1993. In 2000 a web frontend was added, and today the system handles more requests in a day than it was originally intended to handle in a year. It was obviously well designed!
Life before Holiday Extras
Having originally trained as a COBOL programmer, my early career saw me using these skills to introduce computers and spreadsheets into the accounts departments of a number of large organisations, such as the BBC and GlaxoSmithkline. The knowledge and training I acquired working as an accounts clerk for these companies, eventually provided me with the opportunity to join a software house that specialized in accounting systems. Here I worked on Sales Order Processing, Fixed Asset, Nominal Ledger, Sales Ledger and Purchase Ledge systems.
In the mid Eighties I moved to a company that specialized in Travel Reservation Systems. Since that time I have designed and built systems for a number of travel and holiday sectors such as Tour Operators, Hotel Groups, Car Hire companies, Coach Operators and Foreign Exchange, as well as parking operators.
Life outside Holiday Extras
As well as writing software I also write words. I am currently working with Kenny Lynch to produce his autobiography. Kenny's life has spanned 20th Century popular culture, music, football, TV and politics, and so he has plenty of stories to tell. To coincide with the release of the book, Kenny has been working with the MiNGiN BEATS team to lay down some new tracks (https://youtu.be/kwKz070t2ig) ahead of a nationwide book signing and concert tour.
In addition to the Kenny book I am also writing a novel, which follows the fortunes of a large Irish Catholic family living in Shepherds Bush, London. The first volume covers the sixties and seventies. Events are seen through the eyes of one of the sons who goes on to become the first of the family ever to go to University. However his background and family leaves him with a dark secret which comes back to haunt him in the third and final volume.
My first ever overseas trip, back in 1972.
I am fortunate that my work takes me all around the globe. My favourite place tends to be the last place I have visited. At the time of writing this, that place is South Beach, Miami. However, there are 2 places where I immediately feel that I am home when I step off the plane.
The first is Dublin, where both of my parents were born, and which as a result, has many happy childhood memories for me. In more recent times my links with Dublin have been renewed as my eldest daughter, Amy, graduated from Trinity College Dublin. You cannot have a favourite place without a song to go with it. For Dublin this is "In the Rare Old Times" by the Dubliners (https://youtu.be/9T7OaDDR7i8). This always makes me think of my father.
My second special place is Ibiza, where I spent many weekends in the eighties. This was a time when most of the club nights that you would go to in London (Gossip, Le Beat Route, The Wag Club etc), only took place during the week, so if you wanted to go to a Club on a Friday or Saturday, you had to go to Ibiza! For here my special song is Club Tropicana by Wham (https://youtu.be/WYX0sjP6Za8), solely because I have stayed at Pikes Hotel, where the video was shot, and spent some time with the legend that is Tony Pikes. Strangely, this song also reminds me of being on a train with the likes of Banana Bob, Messer, Bobby Buttons etc, travelling down to Brighton on a tuesday night, back in 1983, to see Manchester United play Brighton in the Townsend Thoresen Cup - but that's a set of stories best not told here.
There is also a place which I have never actually been to, but from which, friends always send me a picture whenever they visit it. That place is the Imperial Pub in downtown Hastings. What I hear you ask is the reason I am always sent a picture from a pub in Hastings? Well, it just so happens that the pub has hanging on a wall, what has become an iconic picture from an era long gone (https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2016/sep/22/syd-sheltons-best-photograph-punk-rock-against-racism-interview), and which features a face you may just still recognise. Yet another set of stories probably best not told here.
My school report when I was 9 years old.
My inspiration would be my parents and my teachers. My parents gave me my heritage and my core beliefs and values.
My teachers gave me the cajoling and encouragement I needed to help me achieve more than most people, including myself, ever thought possible.

Q: bogofilter issue. How do I reset the "learning of bogofilter" My bogofilter puts good emails into spam. I would like to know how to reset all the "learning" so that I can train it again.
Uninstalling bogofilter seem to uninstall the program but not the "learned data".
How to rip out the "learned data". I want then to start with clean slate.
-thanks

my system:
ubuntu 14.04
evolution 3.10.4 ( which I understand includes the bogofilter)
classic gnome

A: I found this on their website (seems to me that you can create a list of words into a text file and then can edit this file and the use this new filtered file again):

How can I delete all the spam (or non-spam) tokens?

Bogoutil lets you dump a wordlist and load the tokens into a new wordlist. With the added use of awk and grep, counts can be zeroed and tokens with zero counts for both spam and non-spam can be deleted.
The following commands will delete the tokens from spam messages:
bogoutil -d wordlist.db | \
awk '{print $1 " " $2 " 0"}' | grep -v " 0 0" | \
bogoutil -l wordlist.new.db

The following commands will delete the tokens from non-spam messages:
bogoutil -d wordlist.db | \
awk '{print $1 " 0 " $3}' | grep -v " 0 0" | \
bogoutil -l wordlist.new.db

Regarding

Uninstalling bogofilter seem to uninstall the program but not the "learned data".

You probably need to "purge" the application. In general user created files and settings are not removed when deleting software. See What is the correct way to completely remove an application? for a bit on information on that.

A: Partial joy.
I have done what you suggested. The ham that is classified as spam is actually my employer email so you can imagine it is a pressing issue.
After doing what you said, the first day it miscategorized 3 emails but not all from my employer. Over the last week, it miscategorized about one third of emails from my employer as spam. So I all those emails as ham. But still making mistakes. Maybe I will give it another week.
Are we really sure that the "learned" information is only the word db in .bogofilter.
Is there maybe some other info it learned -- grasping at the straws.
-thanks


South Korea is the country making up the southern half of the Korean Peninsula. It is surrounded by the Sea of Japan and the Yellow Sea and is around 38,502 square miles (99,720 sq km). Its border with North Korea is at a ceasefire line which was established at the end of the Korean War in 1953 and corresponds roughly to the 38th parallel.

Today, South Korea is densely populated and its economy is growing as it is known for producing high-tech industrial goods.
1) South Korea's population as of July 2009 was 48,508,972. Its capital, Seoul, is one of its largest cities with a population of over ten million.
2) The official language of South Korea is Korean but English is taught widely in the country's schools. In addition, Japanese is common in South Korea.
3) The population of South Korea is composed of 99.9% Korean but 0.1% the population is Chinese.

10) In 2004, South Korea opened a high speed rail line called Korea Train Express (KTX) which was based on the French TGV. The KTX runs from Seoul to Pusan and Seoul to Mokpo and transports over 100,000 people daily.


The Journal of Air Transport Management (JATM) sets out to address, through high quality research articles and authoritative commentary, the major economic, management and policy issues facing the air transport industry today. It offers practitioners and academics an international and dynamic forum for analysis and discussion of these issues, linking research and practice and stimulating interaction between the two.
Papers are welcomed covering key industry developments and trends, such as changes in government thinking towards air transport; evolving competitive environments and new industry structures; emerging and maturing markets and changing customer needs; sustainability and security challenges; and industry innovation and technological developments.
In addition to normal papers, JATM also contains 'Notes' articles. These are short articles not exceeding 2500 words in length (including any references, footnotes, tables and figures). They should be self-contained papers, of either a theoretical or applied nature, that provide a stimulating approach to address a major and topical management or policy issue. They should not be review papers, indeed lengthy reviews of previous work should be avoided, and instead notes should succinctly address the topic in hand. The notes are subject to the normal blind refereeing process to maintain the high standards of the journal.
