If a dwelling (or an interest in a dwelling) acquired by your spouse on or after 20 September 1985 was transferred to you under a CGT event that happened on or before 12 December 2006, and marriage or relationship breakdown rollover applies, you are entitled to an exemption from CGT (when you dispose of it) for the period it was your main residence after it was transferred to you.
For more information about the main residence exemption, see Real estate and main residence.
If a dwelling (or an interest in a dwelling) acquired by your spouse on or after 20 September 1985 was transferred to you under a CGT event that happened after 12 December 2006, and the marriage or relationship breakdown rollover applies, you take into account the way in which both of you used the dwelling during your combined period of ownership when determining your eligibility for the main residence exemption.
George and Natalie jointly purchased a holiday home on 0.1 hectare of land. Settlement of the purchase contract happened on 13 March 2010. On 13 March 2012, George transferred his half-interest to Natalie under the terms of an arbitral award.
Natalie uses the dwelling as her main residence for three years after the date of the CGT event until she sells it. Settlement of the sale contract happens on 13 March 2015.
Because the dwelling was Natalie's main residence for three years out of the five years she owned her original interest, she is entitled to a 60% main residence exemption on that interest.
Because George's half interest in the dwelling was transferred to Natalie under a CGT event that happened after 12 December 2006 and CGT marriage or relationship breakdown rollover applied, Natalie is also entitled to a 60% main residence exemption on that half interest (having regard to how they both used that interest during their combined period of ownership).
If a dwelling acquired on or after 20 September 1985 is used as a main residence from the time it is acquired and is later used to produce income, the 'home first used to produce income' rule may apply. For the rule to apply, the first income-producing use must be after 20 August 1996 and the dwelling must qualify for full main residence exemption immediately prior to it being used to produce income. See Home first used to produce income.
Where the 'home first used to produce income' rule and the marriage or relationship breakdown rollover apply and the dwelling (or an interest in the dwelling) was transferred to you by your spouse, you are taken to have acquired it at the time it is first used to produce income for its market value at that time. The first income-producing use may be during your or your spouse's ownership period.
On 1 June 2012, he and Anita started living together as husband and wife. Harry moved into Anita's townhouse and rented out the house. The house was valued at $250,000 at the time.
Harry and Anita had one child before their relationship broke down in 2014. Harry gave notice to the tenants that the lease on the house wouldn't be renewed.
Harry would have obtained a full main residence exemption had he sold it just before he began renting it out on 1 June 2009.
If Anita sells the house under a contract that is settled on 1 June 2021 and it is her main residence until that time, she would obtain a 50% exemption, because it would have been her main residence for six years (1 June 2015 to 1 June 2021) out of the 10 years after she is taken to have acquired it.
In certain circumstances, you may choose to treat a dwelling as your main residence for a period, even though you no longer live in it, see Continuing main residence status after dwelling ceases to be your main residence or you are yet to live in it, see Constructing, renovating or repairing a dwelling on land you already own.
Such choices are not required to be made by a transferor spouse where a rollover applies because the capital gain or capital loss is disregarded. However, there is nothing to prevent the transferor spouse making a choice (for example, as part of the negotiations with the transferee spouse and transferee spouse's advisers about the transfer of a dwelling or an interest in a dwelling).
At the time of negotiating their property settlement on the breakdown of their marriage in 2015, Calvin and Denise discuss with their advisers how to divide their joint assets.
In 2015, their relationship broke down. Denise and Calvin decided that Calvin would transfer his half share in the house to Denise (where she and their daughter would continue to live) and she would transfer the townhouse to Calvin (for him to live in) under a binding financial agreement.
Because the townhouse had been Denise's main residence, she could choose to continue to treat it as such for up to six years of any period of absence.
The effect of Denise's choice is that the townhouse is exempt from CGT for the period between 14 August 2001 (when she moved out) and 25 September 2003 (when she and Calvin bought the house together). So when Calvin sells it, he will get an exemption for that period as well as for the period he lived in it after the marriage broke down.

Q: Specifying a port with https domain I am building a React Native app which currently uses port 3000 on a server to make Mongoose requests and more, like the below
http://<aws-ip-address>.compute.amazonaws.com:3000

If I'm not mistaken I have to use https, not sure if it was an Apple or Firebase requirement.
If I use something like
https://<aws-ip-address>.compute.amazonaws.com:443

Would that be valid? You are already specifying the 'https' part and then with the port you do it again? Does one override the other (e.g. in the case of https://.compute.amazonaws.com:5000 is it https or not, because it says 'https' but port is 5000)? Same question for 'http' and port 80

A: For simplicity sake let's say that a URL looks like this:
scheme://fqdn:port/

The scheme (http or https) is independent of the port, but both http and https have default ports associated with them. You need both a scheme and a port to make a connection.
http://fqdn/ is equivalent to http://fqdn:80/ and
https://fqdn/ is equivalent to https://fqdn:443/
Nowadays the browser defaults to http but some browsers will default to https when the scheme is omitted.
When entering fqdn:443/ the browser will try to open http://fqdn:443/ (for now but the default behavior is changing with different browser makers), but only if there is no HSTS record in the browsers cache for that fqdn.
When entering https://fqdn:80/ the browser will use https as is defined and connect to TCP port 80. Of course, the server must be configured for TLS on that port and have a web server that speaks the http protocol behind that.

PENGUINS WEEKLY – 10/31/17
October 31, 2017 Nick Hart
Penguins carry five-game win streak into rivalry weekend
Wilkes-Barre/Scranton (6-2-0-0) set for state supremacy skirmish
Friday, Oct. 27 – PENGUINS 3 vs. Hershey 2
Wilkes-Barre/Scranton saw its I-81 rival erase a 2-0 deficit, but Dominik Simon's third period power play goal gave the Penguins their fourth-straight win. Tristan Jarry turned aside 30 shots and stood tall amidst a late-game barrage from the Bears. Wilkes-Barre/Scranton also scored its first extra attacker goal of the season when Jean-Sébastien Dea found the back of the net during a delayed penalty in the first period.
Saturday, Oct. 28 – PENGUINS 5 at Bridgeport 2
The Penguins saw multi-point nights from a handful of players, but perhaps no performance was more key than that of Ryan Haggerty, who notched two tallies in his first game of 2017-18. Adam Johnson also scored his first goal as a pro while Jarry earned the "W" in back-to-back starts for the team's fifth in a row.
Friday, Nov. 3 – PENGUINS at Lehigh Valley
Wilkes-Barre/Scranton fell in its last visit to PPL Center, but still owns a daunting 13-4-1-1 all-time record in Allentown. The Phantoms recently saw a six-game winning streak come to an end, but their high-flying forward Danick Martel leads the league with 10 goals. Through two contests this season, the Penguins and Phantoms are deadlocked at 1-1-0-0 records.
Sunday, Nov. 5 – PENGUINS vs. Hershey
The Penguins return to home ice for a Sunday matinée with the Bears. Wilkes-Barre/Scranton is 13-6-0-0 in its last 19 games against Hershey, but 11 of those games were decided by a one-goal margin. This match-up will take place during the Penguins' first-ever Harry Potter Day and is also a Kids Get In Free Sunday. Children aged 14 and under receive free admission to the game with the paid purchase of an adult ticket.
– Daniel Sprong leads the AHL in power play goals (5) and is tied for the rookie lead in goals (7) and points (10).
– Including the 2016 Calder Cup Playoffs, seven of Sprong's 12 AHL goals have come on the power play.
– Dominik Simon is currently on a four-game point streak (1G-4A).
– Saturday was Jean-Sébastien Dea's 200th AHL game and thus his 200th game with Wilkes-Barre/Scranton. He is the 29th player in team history to skate in 200 games with the Penguins.
– Saturday was Ryan Haggerty's third multi-goal game with the Penguins and the fifth of his pro career.
– Tom Kostopoulos is two games away from his 700th AHL game.

CRAMAROSSA CELEBRATES BIRTHDAY WITH OT-WINNER
PITTSBURGH RE-ASSIGNS CZUCZMAN TO WBS

redpajama_set_name: RedPajamaCommonCrawl


There are excellent discussions already happening with excellent input from a number of people about electrical noise.
b) being fed directly into my radio shack, feed lines and antenna systems by what I have come to call "the mains feed line"
There is very little to be done about a). There is a lot that can be done about b).
Because at my location the principle source is b) I have over time learned how to get rid of it.
The first step is to appreciate the principle of "the mains feed line" so here goes with that. This post is an attempt to provide a really simple picture of what is happening to me. The second part - what to do about it - is also pretty simple.
If this post generates any interest I'll have a go at what I did about it but before that I'd appreciate the thoughts of others.
This has to be the bane of every listener's life! I would be most interested in how you have approached and resolved this in your environment.
Very interesting subject with fine exposition by vk7jj... please go on!!!
The standard situation is type a) (noise radiated from mains wires in the houses that surround you).
... the neighbours do not understand why they are the jammers. You cannot persuade them to switch off the noise sources or use line filtering, grounding ... They do not understand that "the old man with the antennas" near them wants to have noisefree radio reception (or they are ignorant and do not care).
... the regulations in most countries are very lax. They allow noise radiation at highest levels (e. g. for so called homeplug powerline modems) and the authorities do not care much about RF noise.

Don't ground your radio/coax to the mains ground wire! If you do (even if you don't) it's important to use a balun/unun to connect the feedline to the antenna so that common mode currents on the feedline don't couple into the antenna.

Hi guys and thanks for the comments! Instalment number two of this breathtaking thread is at hand.
We can't look towards "what we can do about it" until we sus out more of the problems and then visualise a possible goal we might work towards. So here goes with that.
We are our own worst enemies because we send lots of electrical crap into the mains feed line.
Antennas provide the greatest single opportunity for us to have fun with our receivers and improve our signals.
Your little SDRPlay black box can only deliver to you what you put into it!
PS. No brownie points will be awarded for finding the mains short circuit. There was also a technical error in the first post, thank you all for not pointing it out and totally embarrassing me.
Sorry about the large graphics in the previous post caused by my screen grabs being 144 dpi. I forget to resample them. Likewise forgive the delays between posts.
OK. There here are three obvious parts of the mains interference problem to think about ranked in probable ease of doing something useful about.
Perhaps you're way ahead of the curve so maybe this is a check list to tick off!
2. Isolating the antenna and feed line from "the mains"
Let's look at number 1 first. Here are the devices in my radio shack that were obvious candidates to check out.
a) Tune a small battery powered transistor radio to a vacant spot on the AM broadcast band or if you can, to a band of interest to you. Make sure it is an AM radio, not FM. Maybe you have a hand held ham radio that can tune to AM with a broad band receiver that can actually be tuned to most of your frequencies of interest.
Walk around your candidate suspect devices and wiring, push the radio up as close as you can to each device and the wires coming out of it. You will be in no left in doubt when you find an offending device because as you approach it more closely it will give an increasingly loud buzz or other noise. Sometimes you can follow the buzz even along a piece of coax or an ethernet cable or a power cable or an earth lead.
b) Turn off all the suspect devices then turn them on one at a time and listen for or watch to see any known offending signals in your waterfall.
c) Buy or scrounge a cheap old fashioned ferrite rod to make an RF sniffer, the type used in old transistor radios is great. Wind ten or so turns of any suitable wire on one end of it and connect / solder the ends of the wire to a small audio plug that will fit in the microphone input of your mobile phone. Connecting an inexpensive small signal diode like a 1n4148 in series with the wire from the ferrite rod that goes to the active pin on the audio jack will allow you to see even more. Download and install an FFT app onto your phone and run it. You can poke the ferrite rod right into suspect spots and see the resulting crap.
d) Using a similar ferrite rod sniffer connected to your SDRPlay's antenna input via a spare coax lead also works a treat particularly if you have existing known interference and you suspect it's coming from something close by in your room.
Obviously the worst offenders for me were switch mode power supplies.
I had to give up using the big 13.8 volt bench supply and replace it with an older fashioned linear heavy duty supply, linear supplies invariably have large heavy mains transformers in them so they are easy to identify and painful to pay for the postage of. I spent quite a while trying to tame it but had to give up, my supply was hopeless and removing it and using a linear supply made a huge difference.
Crappy switch mode supplies usually inject interference onto their low voltage wires and also onto your mains wiring and that is often overlooked. Your ferrite probe will usually make it blindingly obvious.
In the next post hopefully without much delay we'll look at some alternatives for replacements, some fixes, and at some simple home-brew filters for those who'd like to have a go at construction.
In the mean time if people have come across particular devices or causes of interference in or about the home or workshop that are relevant that would be great, my gear is quite mundane.
Hi guys, I've temporarily (I hope) injured my left eye after my eyeball was stuck by a small burning ember, I'm out of action for the mean time, apologies.
Wow Phil, commiserations on the eye injury. I hope it recovers soon, but I know how slowly eye injuries go and how painful and irritating they can be. Good luck with it.

Prisoner of Conscience Huynh Duc Thinh Suffers from Hemorrhagic Stroke Few Weeks Before His One-Year Imprisonment Ends
Prisoner of conscience Huynh Duc Thinh, who is serving his one-year imprisonment in a prison camp in Dong Nai province, is suffering from a hemorrhage stroke a few weeks before his term ends and he is under critical conditions.
After being treated ineffectively in a hospital managed by the Ministry of Public Security, Mr. Thinh was transferred to Hospital 115, a private medical facility in Ho Chi Minh City upon request of his former wife Nguyen Thi Hue, who is taking care for him along with conducting regular prison visits to their son Huynh Duc Thanh Binh, a young democracy activist being imprisoned in Xuan Loc Prison camp in Dong Nai.
Ms. Hue told Defend the Defenders that her ex-husband is still under close surveillance of a group of police officers. She said the police have not provided the information about the cause of his illness, adding when she met him in the prison camp on November 29, he was totally healthy.
Mr. Thinh, a former political prisoner at his 68-year age, was arrested on July 7, 2018 by the security forces in Ho Chi Minh City after they kidnapped Mr. Binh, Thailand-based democracy campaigner Mr. Tran Long Phi and Vietnamese American Michael Minh Phuong Nguyen. Mr. Thinh was charged with "misprision" under Clause 1 of Article 390 of the Criminal Code while the three others were alleged of subversion.
In June 2019, the People's Court of HCM City convicted the four to total 30 years in prison. Particularly, Mr. Nguyen was sentenced to 12 years, Mr. Binh- ten years, Mr. Phi-eight years, and Mr. Thinh- one year.
In an appeal hearing in November last year, the Higher People's Court in HCM City upheld the sentence of Mr. Thinh and he was taken to police custody. His term is expected to end three weeks later.
Meanwhile, Mr. Nguyen was freed and deported to the US while Mr. Binh was transferred to Xuan Loc Prison camp and Phi was taken to Gia Trung Prison camp in the Central Highlands province of Gia Lai.
Vietnam is the biggest prison of prisoners of conscience in Southeast Asia, according to the report released by Amnesty International on December 1. In prison camps and detention facilities across the country, prisoners of conscience are being treated inhumanely, subjects of physical and mental torture carried out by police officers or criminal inmates backed by police.

After 19 wonderful and exhilarating years, I have recently retired from the position of President of this great institution. It was my pleasure and honor to be the last President of West Georgia College (1994-96), the first and only President of the State University of West Georgia (1996-2005), and the first President of The University of West Georgia (2005-2013).
documented a rationale for, and obtained approval for, a change in Founding Date.
Presidents don't do these things on their own – certainly, this President did not! You did it, and I am grateful.
I am continuing on the faculty of UWG. The Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia has given me the signal honor of being named a Regents' Professor, and I serve under that title with gratitude and humility.
Before I close, let me give three rousing cheers for, and to, Dr. Kyle Marrero, our new President. He is an outstanding individual and will do a great job leading UWG to the next stage in its trajectory. I am honored to serve under him and delighted to continue to serve the students of The University of West Georgia.

Q: Are perl6 subs really lexically scoped or have extra? If I have a block like the following:
{
   say $myVar;
   my $myVar=1;
}

I get the expected error:
Variable '$myVar' is not declared

However in a similar fashion with a sub
{
    test();
    my sub test() {
        say "Hello";
    }
}

This runs without error and prints:
Hello

Both $myVar and test are not visible outside of enclosing blocks, so in that sense they are both lexically scoped.
The sub must have its declaration 'hoisted' to the top of the block as test is defined and usable before its position in the code. I can't find a reference to back this up however.
What prompted this question is looking at lexical scoped my subs in perl, which gives an 'undefined subroutine' error in the perl version of the second case above. In my understanding of lexical scope, this is what I would expect.
I use this without thought... write some test code, later wrap it up into a sub declared at a bottom of my file and call the sub from earlier in the file. Everything works!
It does leads to the question: Are perl6 subs really lexically scoped in this sense?

A: When Perl6 comes across a function call it makes a note about it, but it does not check if the function is there.
So the following will compile, but will not actually work. (The function is not available where it is called.)
foo 1;
my &foo = &say;

In the following the compiler does the same thing, but then the optimizer realizes that it can't even find a reference to the function anywhere. (So the optimizer causes it to fail during compilation.)
bar 1;

The reason for this difference to other variables is that many times you may have one function that relies on another, or you want to place the functions after the rest of the code.
Also the code of a function is usually known at compile-time, whereas the value of a variable isn't known until after it is assigned. (The assignment happens at run-time.)
Basically the way people tend to use variables and functions is different, so they work slightly differently.
There isn't a need to require them to be declared before they are used, so that restriction was removed.

In Perl5 functions modify the parser based on their prototype, so the compiler needs to see a declaration before they are used for it to know how they should be parsed.
use v5.10;

sub foo ();
sub bar;

say foo + 1; # foo() + 1 # foo is compiled as a term/constant
say bar + 1; # bar( +1 )

sub foo () { 2 }
sub bar { $_[0] + 2 }

In Perl6 all functions are compiled as if they take a list, so there is no need to require them to be predeclared.
use v6;

# these two lines don't really change anything.
sub foo () {...}
sub bar ($) {...}

say foo + 1; # foo( +1 ) # optimization failure (too many arguments)
say bar + 1; # bar( +1 )

sub foo () { 2 }
sub bar ( $a ) { $a + 2 }

A: From the Subroutine Apocalypse:

Perl 6 also allows you to defer declaring your subroutine till later in the file, but only if the delayed declaration declares the sub to be parsed consistent with how a list operator would be parsed. Basically, any unrecognized "bareword" is assumed to be a provisional list operator that must be declared by the end of the current compilation unit.

Se Ri Pak Says 2016 Is Her Last Full Season
After her round at the JTBC Founders Cup on Thursday, Se Ri Pak told GC that 2016 would be her last full season on tour. The retrospective articles have already begun... and they're all well-deserved.
I still remember watching a very young Se Ri win the 1998 US Women's Open over Jenny Chuasiriporn in a playoff. (Yeah, she won the 1998 McDonald's LPGA Championship-- now the Women's PGA -- earlier that year, but the US Open is the one that stuck with me.) Her two majors set off the avalanche of Korean -- and other Asian -- players that are such a dominant force on the women's tours today.
Se Ri wasn't just a great player, she was fun to watch. She added some spice to the brewing rivalry between Annika Sorenstam and Karrie Webb, to create an international Big3 on the LPGA. The Korean-Swedish-Australian trio was something new in women's golf, and after years of American domination they brought in a whole new worldwide audience.
I hope that since Se Ri said 2016 would be her last full season, we'll still get to see her play in a few events going forward. She says she plans to focus on helping young Koreans get ready to play the tours, and that shouldn't be too hard for her.
After all, if there's a Big3 of the modern game, you can make an argument that it's Arnold Palmer, Seve Ballesteros and Se Ri Pak. (If we went for a Mount Rushmore of Golf, Tiger would probably take the fourth spot.) Their influence goes so far beyond records that they're in a class by themselves.
Here are links to just three of the posts that have been done about Se Ri's retirement so far:
There are -- and will be -- many more, but these will get you started.

Point of order: the LPGA Championship is now the Women's PGA. The ANA Inspiration is instead the current name for the major in Rancho Mirage, the one major (along with Evian) that Se Ri has yet to win in her otherwise stellar career.
Mike March 20, 2016 at 12:29 PM
Thanks for catching that, IC. My mind just wasn't working properly at the time -- I'd like to blame it on old age but I'm afraid it's been happening much too long for that. ;-)
For those of you who are interested, the ANA Inspiration -- which was called the Nabisco Dinah Shore, Nabisco Championship, and finally the Kraft Nabisco while she was winning on the LPGA (last win in 2010) -- and the du Maurier Classic (which is now the Canadian Women's Open and no longer a major) are the two majors Se Ri didn't win. The Evian was never a major during the period when she was winning -- her last worldwide win came in 2012.

Delfzijl had her first storm of the year today.
The fierce winds (force 10-11) from the north west in combination with spring-tide made the harbour quays flood around noon. The main road that leads through the harbour also flooded.
As real 'Delfsielsters' of course we had to take a look in the harbour after school was over. Unfortunately that was about 2 hours after the water had reached its highest point, but battling the wind was great fun nonetheless.
I've seen this all before. Back in december 2013 the water came about 1 meter higher than today. But it's still impressive to see the power of nature take over the city.


Two days of work left... Then a nice long 6 day weekend! Thanksgiving is coming up. I am thankful for so many things. My life compared to the past is so much better. I am hoping that any current bumps in the road or things I have to overcome will soon pass... and I can continue to enjoy it.
For now... Babies. In. Hedgehog Suits. Nuff' said.

ColumnsThe 'Stache Line
The 'Stache Line: College should focus funds on needs of the many
By Matt Kelly — Columnist
When I opened this year's second issue of The Ithacan on Sept. 5 and flipped through to the front page of the sports section, I found a story focused on a question I've certainly pondered myself: Should Butterfield Stadium be renovated?
As the story points out, there are visible problems with the stadium. The field, bleachers and press boxes are outdated, and the hill that the stadium is built on is showing signs of erosion. Susan Bassett, director of intercollegiate athletics and recreational sports, said she is currently evaluating these issues.
"We are always going to have some interest in enhancing what we have," Bassett said. "Everybody is well aware that there's a need for improvement at Butterfield Stadium because of the erosion of the hill that's creating problems. It's one of our largest well-known facilities."
Despite these issues, several current and former football players defended the stadium in the story, citing tradition and even claiming the old grass field gives the team an advantage over visiting opponents.
In my opinion, the reason Butterfield Stadium should be left alone has nothing to do with preserving history. Instead, it comes down to the fact that there are simply more pressing construction projects the college needs to take care of.
When I read Andreas Jonathan's recent commentary in The Ithacan about the Cerrache Center, I was once again reminded of the troubling gap between administrators' goals and student issues — a problem that needs to be addressed.
The combined cost of the three most recent renovations to the college's athletic facilities totaled $83.6 million. It's important to note that the projects were mostly paid for by alumni donors and not from the college's endowment. Though athletes make up only 17 percent of the student population, alumni are more excited to write a check to the college for a new football stadium than for a new computer lab.
But let's take a second to remember what this college has built its reputation on. Ithaca College is renowned for its music and theater programs, for its pre-professional programs in physical, athletic and occupational training and for its communications programs. Though Bomber teams routinely compete for Division III championships, the majority of the student population is not here to play varsity sports.
I think Butterfield Stadium is an eyesore just as much as anyone else, but isn't it time for the college to focus on other aspects of the students' experience? It's a shame that our administrators can't rally as much enthusiasm from alumni donors to save the physical therapy department's Rochester, N.Y., branch, for instance, as it can to build a new indoor track.
Bombers athletics is a way of life for a small selection of students on this campus, but many more are here for academics. I urge the college's administrators to find more enticing methods that will influence alumni donors to give money to renovation projects that reflect the actual demographics of the campus.

Osinbajo: Leaders must risk popularity to resolve conflicts
Vice President Yemi Osinbajo
Muideen Olaniyi
Mon, 30 Aug 2021 21:32:41 GMT
Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has said that leaders must be willing to make sacrifices even at the risk of their popularity in order to attain long-lasting resolutions, peace, and progress in situations of conflict, including during ethnic and religious tensions.
Prof Osinbajo said this Monday when he received on a courtesy visit to the Presidential Villa, a delegation from the Muslim Public Affairs Centre (MPAC) led by its Executive Chairman, Mr Disu Kamor.
BREAKING: Kidnappers invade Kogi church, abduct members
Governor Ganduje opposes legalisation of cannabis
MPAC is a non-governmental organisation dedicated to the promotion of peacebuilding and interfaith cohesion, among other objectives.
According to the Vice President, "there is a need to understand first of all, that there is no way that we can deal with the tensions between the faiths and ethnicities in Nigeria today unless those in leadership are prepared to make some important sacrifices.
"Those sacrifices are sacrifices even in what you say, how you say it, and then sacrifices also in the acknowledgement of whatever people are saying and the willingness to accept.
"It is very important that we don't diminish the importance of language and respectful non-violent communication so that we are able to keep our discussions at a level that ensures that we don't degenerate too quickly to violence."
Osinbajo, while citing the examples of the sacrifices made by the late South African leader, Nelson Mandela and Imam Abubakar Abdullahi of Barkin Ladi, in Plateau State, said; "we can all talk nicely and say the right things but unless people are prepared to make some concessions which may cost them popularity within their own group, we cannot move forward."
The Vice President, while commending the Muslim group's efforts in promoting interfaith cohesion in a statement issued by his spokesman, Laolu Akande, said setting up an inclusive platform for interfaith dialogue should be an important consideration by concerned stakeholders.
Earlier in his presentation, the leader of the group, Mr Disu Kamor, said MPAC had been involved in programmes and activities aimed at promoting cohesion among people of different faiths over the past decade.
He said the group is ready to collaborate with other stakeholders deepening efforts aimed at ensuring peaceful coexistence and dousing the tensions across the country among people of different faiths.

Since the iconic Citroën DS car hit the market in 1955, the DS line has continued to grow in popularity under legendary French carmaker Citroën. In 2015, Citroën decided to spin off DS into a standalone premium brand coinciding with the launch of their fifth-generation model. This represented a crucial opportunity to make a splash for the DS brand name, so the team decided to live stream a launch event around the world.
DS chose Facebook as the optimal channel to drive awareness and promote their launch event across 39 countries. Yet scaling across a broad geography and executing on an exact schedule required a high level of coordination and advanced marketing capabilities. To ensure a successful launch, the DS team selected Marin Social to help them orchestrate and manage this special brand awareness campaign.
DS developed a video advertising strategy with three phases: pre-launch teaser, livestream launch event, and post-event video replay. First, DS created page post video ads with Reach & Frequency targeting to maximize exposure for their pre-launch teaser. Marin Social made it easy to build relevant audience clusters, for example by targeting strategic keywords and interests optimized for CTR.
Second, DS took advantage of remarketing audiences to re-engage users who previously watched the teaser video with a link to the livestream event. This ensured DS was connecting with users who had already demonstrated interest, and who would likely want to view the livestream. Third, DS ran additional page post ads following the event to promote a video replay and reinforce brand awareness. These ads targeted users in the best-performing countries and strategic markets, as identified by Marin Social's advanced reporting.
Each step of the way, Marin Social's easy-to-use campaign management and reporting helped DS take their strategy to the next level. DS kept the campaign on track with custom scheduling to run ads at select times, and maintained control at all times using budget auto-pause. Marin Social was also key in being able to scale this three-phase campaign around the world in just five days.
The innovative approach DS took by combining video and sequential advertising strategies paid off. They achieved massive exposure from the Reach & Frequency phase of their campaign, with over 36 million impressions and nearly 8 million video views. Phase two of their campaign also produced a great response, garnering over 9 million impressions and generating steady traffic to the livestream launch event. Finally, DS effectively engaged their existing fan base with an impressive 20% engagement rate.

Search for missing hiker, Matthew Greene, continues
by Sheet Staff
in Arts and Life · News
Matthew Greene
On July 29, avid outdoorsman, Matthew Greene, age 39, was reported missing to the Mammoth Lakes Police Department (MLPD). Greene was passing through the Mammoth Lakes area to do some hiking, camping, and conquer peaks throughout the Eastern Sierra. Greene is believed to have expressed interest in climbing Mt. Lyell, south of Tuolumne Meadows, Mt. Ritter, and Mt. Banner.
The Mono County Sheriff's Search and Rescue (SAR) Team has sent ground teams to search around the Ritter/Banner area. As a training mission, a CHP helicopter, along with the assistance of Mono County SAR, did a brief search of the area, including the Minarets. To date, Greene has not been located.
Due to the potential climbing destinations of Mt. Ritter and Mt. Banner being outside of Mono County, the Mono County Sheriff's Search and Rescue (SAR) Team has not been officially activated. The SAR team, to actively aid the family and friends of Greene in their search efforts, has utilized training opportunities to try and locate him. The SAR team has verified that no summit register entries have been entered by Greene at either peak. The SAR team is currently analyzing forest service permits and emailing permit holders to try and gather additional information regarding Greene's location.
The Mono County Sheriff's Office has sent information in reference to this investigation to Madeira County and the Yosemite Search and Rescue Team as their jurisdiction is potentially involved. At this time, Mono County SAR has not been formally requested as mutual aid in this search.
Greene is 5'11" and weighs approximately 160 lbs. Anyone with any information on Greene's whereabouts or other tips for this investigation are encouraged to call Detective Hornbeck at the Mammoth Lakes Police Department at 760.934.2011 or the Mono County Sheriff's Office at 760.932.7549 ext. 7. –MCSD

Home / Unlabelled / Corrupt judgement: Tribunal nullifies election in 18 Akwa Ibom LGAs but leaves governor in office
Corrupt judgement: Tribunal nullifies election in 18 Akwa Ibom LGAs but leaves governor in office
Confusion has trailed the judgement of the Akwa Ibom State Governorship Election Tribunal on Wednesday, following the nullification of election in 18 local government areas of the state without unseating the governor.
The tribunal had Wednesday ruled on the petition by the All Progressives Congress, and its candidate, Umana Umana, challenging the election of Mr. Emmanuel of the Peoples Democratic Party.
The judgement was however unclear as it was not categorical on whether Governor Udom Emmanuel should leave office.
In the ruling, the tribunal held that election was not properly conducted in 18 of 31 local government areas of the state.
The three-member tribunal, led by Justice Sadiq Umar, ordered the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, to conduct re-run election in the affected 18 local government areas.
Some of the affected local government areas include Eket, Uyo, Onna, Nsit-Ibom, Nsit-Ubium, Ibiono, Ibesikpo Asutan, Nsit-Atai, Etinam and Oron, among others.
While it called for rerun in the affected local government areas, the tribunal failed to make pronouncement on the status of the state governor.
It also failed to give specific time frame for the conduct of rerun election in the affected local governments.
The decision of the tribunal threw many Nigerians into confusion including PREMIUM TIMES, which initially reported in error that Mr. Emmanuel's election had been upheld.
However, when this newspaper sought the opinion of Nigerians, there was mixed reaction on the matter.
A Senior Advocate of Nigeria, SAN, Sebastian Hon, said he is surprised at the tribunal's ruling.
He argued that even if it had nullified election in half of the local government areas in the state, the tribunal ought to have removed the governor and called for a rerun.
He said, "I think an error of judgment has been committed, by nullifying in 18 local government areas, it means the governor was not validly elected and should not continue in office.
"However, under the Electoral Act, even if a governor is removed, he cannot vacate the seat until the time appeal is exhausted.
"But it was the duty of the tribunal to have made that pronouncement as a consequential order. It is an order that flows naturally from the judgment."
He, however, advised INEC to conduct rerun election in the affected local governments within one month or at the expiration of the appeal window so the people of Akwa Ibom state would know who their real governor is.
A member of the APC legal team in the case, Ubong Offiong, said the ruling left some gaps which were difficult to understand.
By cancelling election and ordering rerun in 18 out of the 31 local government areas in the state, he noted that the tribunal has left some questions unanswered, Mr. Offiong said.
"For instance, we know that the governor of Akwa Ibom State cannot be deemed to have been elected on the basis of 13 local government areas given the fact that the state has 31 local government areas," he said.
"The governor could only be validly elected if he had scored at least 25 per cent of the votes in 24 local government areas of the state.
"By upholding election in 13 local government areas effectively means that the present governor was not validly elected. But because the tribunal did not expressly say so at the end of the day, gives room to confusion."
Again, Mr. Offiong faulted the tribunal for calling for rerun in the 18 affected local government areas without indicating a definite time frame within which INEC should conduct the election.
He insisted a lacuna could be created where all the parties fail to appeal the judgment of the tribunal.
He continued, "I believe the tribunal could have said since election has been cancelled in the 18 local government areas and therefore the present governor was not validly elected, they should be a rerun within three months or a specified time frame.
"In that case, if any of the parties goes on appeal, the court would either uphold the ruling or change it."
Even the PDP believes the judgment is vague.
The PDP Chairman in Akwa Ibom state, Paul Ekpo, said the judgment was confusing.
Mr. Ekpo said the only good thing about the judgment was that the governor, Mr. Emmanuel, remained in office.
"The judgment is very confusing except that my governor, who had won the election overwhelmingly still remains the governor," Mr. Ekpo said

The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) released its weekly petroleum status report this morning. U.S. commercial crude inventories increased by 2.5 million barrels last week, bringing the total U.S. commercial crude inventory to 393.8 million barrels, well above the upper limit of the five-year range for this time of the year.
Total gasoline inventories increased by 2.7 million barrels last week and are now above the upper limit of the five-year average range. Total motor gasoline supplied (the EIA's measure of consumption) averaged 8.8 million barrels a day over the past four weeks - a drop of about 0.4% compared with the same period a year ago.
Distillate inventories fell by 1.2 million barrels last week and remain in the lower half of the average range. Distillate product supplied averaged about 4 million barrels a day over the past four weeks, up about 9.2% when compared with the same period last year. Distillate production totaled 4.7 million barrels a day last week, lower by about 100,000 barrels a day compared with the prior week.
The American Petroleum Institute last night reported an inventory increase of 9 million barrels in crude supplies last week. Platts estimated a no change in crude inventories, a rise of 1 million barrels in gasoline inventories and a rise of 1.4 million barrels in distillate inventories.
Crude prices were up about 0.4% before the EIA report at around $95.30 a barrel and rose to around $96, up 0.5%, shortly after the report was released.
For the past week, crude imports averaged less than 7.9 million barrels a day, up about 582,000 barrels a day from the previous week. Refineries were running at 87.5% of capacity, with daily input of 15.2 million barrels a day, about 300,000 barrels a day less than the previous week.
This week's increase in crude inventories is consistent with recent reports from OPEC, the IEA and the EIA itself that demand for crude is declining. The rise in gasoline inventories could indicate also that gasoline pump prices are preparing to fall. Refinery throughput fell slightly last week, most likely due to outages in the Midwest.
The United States Oil ETF (NYSEMKT: USO) is up 0.6%, at $33.98 in a 52-week range of $29.02 to $37.17.
The United States Gasoline ETF (NYSEMKT: UGA) is up less than 0.1%, at $56.16, in a 52-week range of $45.13 to $65.86.
The United States Brent Oil ETF (NYSEMKT: BNO) is up 0.75%, at $79.00 in a 52-week range of $63.00 to $88.71.
