What Was Totally Acceptable in the 90s but Not Now?
I was perusing through Reddit recently and found yet another great AskReddit question.
What was totally acceptable in the 90's that isn't acceptable now?
And some things came immediately to mind. Wearing flannel everywhere, for every occasion. Although that might be more of a "growing up in the Northwest" thing, and not a 90s thing. JNCO jeans. But those seem to be more fashion based. Here are some of the answers that popped up on the AskReddit thread.
Pilots allowing kids into the cockpit to have a look around and be f***ing amazed.
Having a question and not immediately looking up the answer.
Playgrounds with all metal everything and gravel bases.
Walking all the way to the departure gate at the airport with your family/friends even if you weren't traveling with them.
Prior to call ID, calling someone multiple times without getting a response was pretty normal. So was looking someone up in the phone book.

The view – beloved of Greek oracles and their adherents – that the future, or part of it, will be what it will be, irrespective of our desires and actions.
If we try to evade what is destined, our actions will always be frustrated and somehow turned so as to bring about the fated result.
Probably never held as a serious philosophical doctrine, fatalism should be distinguished from determinism and necessitarianism.
The term "fatalism" can refer to any of the following ideas:
Any view according to which human beings are powerless to do anything other than what they actually do.[1] Included in this is the belief that humans have no power to influence the future or indeed the outcome of their own actions.[2][3]
One such view is theological fatalism, according to which free will is incompatible with the existence of an omniscient God who has foreknowledge of all future events.[4] This is very similar to theological determinism.[a]
A second such view is logical fatalism, according to which propositions about the future which we take to currently be either true or false can only be true or false if future events are already determined.[1]
A third such view is causal determinism. Causal determinism (often simply called "determinism") is now usually treated as distinct from fatalism, on the grounds that it requires only the determination of each successive state in a system by that system's prior state, rather than the final state of a system being predetermined.
The view that the appropriate reaction to the inevitability of some future event is acceptance or resignation, rather than resistance.[b] This view is closer to everyday use of the word "fatalism", and is similar to defeatism.
Determinism and predeterminism
While the terms are sometimes used interchangeably, fatalism, determinism, and predeterminism are distinct, as each emphasizes a different aspect of the futility of human will or the foreordination of destiny. However, all these doctrines share common ground.
Determinists generally agree that human actions affect the future but that human action is itself determined by a causal chain of prior events. Their view does not accentuate a "submission" to fate or destiny, whereas fatalists stress an acceptance of future events as inevitable. Determinists believe the future is fixed specifically due to causality; fatalists and predeterminists believe that some or all aspects of the future are inescapable but, for fatalists, not necessarily due to causality.[7]
Fatalism is a looser term than determinism. The presence of historical "indeterminisms" or chances, i.e. events that could not be predicted by sole knowledge of other events, is an idea still compatible with fatalism. Necessity (such as a law of nature) will happen just as inevitably as a chance—both can be imagined as sovereign.[1] This idea has roots in Aristotle's work, "De interpretatione".[8]
Theological fatalism is the thesis that infallible foreknowledge of a human act makes the act necessary and hence unfree. If there is a being who knows the entire future infallibly, then no human act is free.[9] The philosopher Al Farabi makes the case that if God does in fact know all human actions and choices, then Aristotle's original solution to this dilemma stands.[10]
Idle argument
One famous ancient argument regarding fatalism was the so-called Idle Argument. It argues that if something is fated, then it would be pointless or futile to make any effort to bring it about. The Idle Argument was described by Origen and Cicero and it went like this:
If it is fated for you to recover from this illness, then you will recover whether you call a doctor or not.
Likewise, if you are fated not to recover, you will not do so whether you call a doctor or not.
But either it is fated that you will recover from this illness, or it is fated that you will not recover.
Therefore, it is futile to consult a doctor.[11][12]
The Idle Argument was anticipated by Aristotle in his De Interpretatione chapter 9. The Stoics considered it to be a sophism and the Stoic Chrysippus attempted to refute it by pointing out that consulting the doctor would be as much fated as recovering. He seems to have introduced the idea that in cases like that at issue two events can be co-fated, so that one cannot occur without the other.[13]
Logical fatalism and the argument from bivalence
The main argument for logical fatalism goes back to antiquity. This is an argument that depends not on causation or physical circumstances but rather is based on presumed logical truths. There are numerous versions of this argument, including those by Aristotle[14] and Richard Taylor.[3] These arguments have been objected to and elaborated on with some effect.[15]
The key idea of logical fatalism is that there is a body of true propositions (statements) about what is going to happen, and these are true regardless of when they are made. So, for example, if it is true today that tomorrow there will be a sea battle, then there cannot fail to be a sea battle tomorrow, since otherwise it would not be true today that such a battle will take place tomorrow.
The argument relies heavily on the principle of bivalence: the idea that any proposition is either true or false. As a result of this principle, if it is not false that there will be a sea battle, then it is true; there is no in-between. However, rejecting the principle of bivalence—perhaps by saying that the truth of a proposition regarding the future is indeterminate—is a controversial view since the principle is an accepted part of classical logic.
Semantic equivocation
One criticism comes from the novelist David Foster Wallace, who in a 1985 paper "Richard Taylor's Fatalism and the Semantics of Physical Modality" suggests that Taylor reached his conclusion of fatalism only because his argument involved two different and inconsistent notions of impossibility.[16] Wallace did not reject fatalism per se, as he wrote in his closing passage, "if Taylor and the fatalists want to force upon us a metaphysical conclusion, they must do metaphysics, not semantics. And this seems entirely appropriate."[16] Willem deVries and Jay Garfield, both of whom were advisers on Wallace's thesis, expressed regret that Wallace never published his argument.[16] In 2010, the thesis was, however, published posthumously as Time, Fate, and Language: An Essay on Free Will.

The Rani Mahal in Palpa, Nepal: Travel Guide & Photography
Destinations in Nepal, Villages in Nepal / June 5, 2019 by fulltimeexplorer / 2 Comments
The Rani Mahal in Palpa, or Ranighat Palace, is often referred to as the "Taj Mahal of Nepal." Although it doesn't resemble the famous Taj Mahal visually, it does have a similar back story full of love and determination. This palace is built along the Kali Gandaki River in the Palpa District of Nepal. At the time it was built (in 1893), the palace was isolated in the middle of nowhere. Now, it's becoming a tourist destination for those who want to witness loves bounds.
Rani Mahal History
Rani Mahal translates to "queens palace" and was built by the General of Palpa, Khadga Shumsher. He had more than one wife, but his youngest and favorite wife was named Tej Kumari. Her last wish before she passed was to have a Durbar built in her memory. Thus began the creation of the Rani Mahal.
After his wife passed, he searched several locations looking for the perfect place to build. He stumbled upon the current site, but there was no way to reach it at the time other than by foot. There was also a large cliff that would need to be removed. But, he was certain this was the right place and through pure willpower, he was able to make the area suitable for a palace by overcoming any of the barriers.
With the location primed, Khadga Shumsher hired a British architect who was living in India. He then selected builders from the Palpa army. It took four years to complete and is now known as a "monument of love" throughout Nepal.
In 1902, the family fled to India. I can't find the exact reason why, but they left the palace abandoned less than 20 years after its completion. This articles states that he had orchestrated an assassination in the Nepalese government. By the end of the twentieth century, the building had deteriorated. Locals told us that theft had become a major problem as well. If you visit today, you can see that the inside has been gutted with none of its original charms or decoration. All of it had been stolen and removed.
Now, the government has taken on the task of restoring the palace to its original glory. Currently, the outside is back to a wonderful condition. I'm not sure if they intend to restore the interior as well, but it would be magnificent if they tried.

Rani Mahal Travel Guide
Location: 18 km (11 miles) north of Tansen, Palpa
How to get there by bus: Getting to the Rani Mahal from Tansen, Palpa is fairly easy. A local bus goes there for $1 per person at 2:00pm, but I'm told you have to walk about 25 minutes. The hotels in town have a private jeep. It's not comfy, and it's very crowded with locals from nearby villages, but it was the most convenient way to get there. You can find the jeeps by the Amar Narayan Temple for 140 rupees ($1.40 USD). They leave daily around 2:30pm, but it's best to get there around 2:00 to secure a seat since they fill up quickly. The same jeep can take you back the following morning at 8:30am. The ride is about an hour and a half.
Hiking there: You can also hike on the same route the jeep takes. I've been told it's about 2 hours downhill from Tansen and about 4 hours uphill on the way back. If you decide to hike, it might be worth it to hike there, and jeep back.
How long to spend there: The Rani Mahal is currently the only thing to see, so I'd recommend an overnight stay. Some people arrive early in the morning and go back to Tansen the same day if they don't want to rough it in the basic hotels.
Tansen, Palpa: City Guide & Photography
There are a couple of very basic hotels and camping grounds nearby. We intended to camp on the bank of the river but rain prevented us from doing so. Even though there are a few choices, it seems the hotels are all owned by the same family. You can call the Rani Mahal Resort at 9821425136 or 9867261635 or 9857062847. There's no wifi here and very little cell service, so be patient with someone answering. Its 600 rupees for one room (about $6 USD).

Noble Energy's $5 Billion Chevron Deal Beats Investor Challenge
Bloomberg Law (subscription required)
Robert S. Harrell
Charles S. Kelley
Joseph De Simone
Noble Energy Inc.'s ex-board dodged litigation over its $5 billion sale to Chevron Corp., when a Delaware judge ruled Wednesday that the investors who approved the deal were told enough about it to make an informed choice.
Vice Chancellor Sam Glasscock III dismissed the case from Delaware's Chancery Court, saying any fiduciary breaches in the run-up to the merger were "cleansed" by the shareholder vote. He rejected claims that Noble's former board withheld important information from investors.
Although the board allegedly spurned a $6 billion proposal for only some of Noble's assets, there was nothing "material" to tell investors about, because that offer was "remote in time"—two years earlier—and was never seriously considered, Glasscock found.
It also wouldn't have been relevant to investors mulling the deal that Noble's senior leaders may have engineered it to get "change in control" benefits for themselves after restructuring their compensation packages in that direction during the pandemic, the judge said.
"While the timing and rationale for the board action were not themselves disclosed," the "precise payments that named executive officers would receive if the stockholders approved the merger were set forth," he wrote. "The timing and rationale for the payments was not material."
Glasscock explicitly declined to rule one way or the other on claims that the circumstances surrounding the change-in-control payments had amounted to self-dealing by company leaders.
Instead, he found that it doesn't matter whether Noble's board or management had breached fiduciary duties in the first place, because investors were ultimately given all the information they needed.
"Directors need not provide exhaustive information in seeking a stockholder vote; caselaw requires accurate and complete disclosure of material information," the judge wrote, placing emphasis on the word "material."
The undisclosed $6 billion proposal by another suitor "was unsolicited, made in mid-2018, and predated" the pandemic, the judge noted. It "contemplated an entirely different transaction structure" that was "never entertained by management or the board," he wrote.
The board also wasn't required to go out of its way to flag every potential implication of the "amended compensation plan," which included the change-in-control payments, Glasscock said.
"The only facts pertaining to the amended plan that were material were the dollar-value payments," which "the plaintiffs have conceded were included in the merger proxy," he wrote. "The incentives for management associated with those payments were apparent."
The Noble ex-board was represented by Morris, Nichols, Arsht & Tunnel! LLP and Mayer Brown LLP. The plaintiffs were represented by Cooch & Taylor PA and Monteverde & Associates PC.

Similar to Word and PDF documents, Powerpoint files should be uploaded to the Learning Space with no issues as it should be rare for these files to exceed the 1GB upload limit. However if your Powerpoint is large - that's probably due to a heavy use of images and styling.
Before you proceed with any of these suggestions, be sure to keep a back up of your work as the quality of images could potentially be lost permanently.
It can be tempting to use 3rd party software that compress files for you - but beware that many of these sites could infect your device with a virus.
Compressing images using Powerpoint in built tools can reduce the file size of the whole document significantly. You can access the menu in the picture above by selecting an image > select picture format in the top ribbon > compress pictures. From here you can choose the PPI of each image, the lower the PPI the lower the quality but file size too.
Each time you make an edit to an image in a word document, data about those changes are saved (this allows you to restore the image to previous versions of itself). In Word we can deactivate and delete this data. You achieve this by hitting file > options > advanced > Image Size & Quality. This feature is currently unavailable on a MAC.
You should ensure that you save your word documents in the most recent file type .pptx unless specified otherwise. Not only will this ensure that the majority of devices will be able to open the file, but more importantly this file type is much more efficient at reducing the size of files.
Unless you are presenting a presentation there is no need to embed a video from a service such as Youtube or Vimeo, instead you should simply link to the video.

Q: Copy Folder from remote to Gitlab runner to save it in Artifacts Is it possible to save reports inside a folder on a remote server with the Gitlab runner so that I can save it in Artifacts?

A:
wan't to copy a folder from a remote server into gitlab runner and pass it as an artifact

I can see a few ways to achieve that:

*

*create a job that will be fetching a folder from a remote server and upload it to GitLab as an Artifact.

*create a folder on the server with the GitLab runner installed, fetch reports into that folder (scp/rsync, etc), and access it by GitLab runner itself (and GitLab Runner will save them as an Artifact).

Let me know if you need to know more, so I'll update my answer.

15th February came and went, and the worst of ads are either gone (or soon will be) from the Chrome users' online experience. We were all fed this rhetoric for the past eight months.
It's been a month since Chrome's filter went live and the ads are still here, and they are just as annoying.
So they removed pop-ups. Big whoop! No one uses them except spammy sites that only the internet n00bs would visit anyway. But what did you expect: We have advertising's biggest proponents trying to put a check on ads. That's like letting a bunch of lazy grad students grade their own papers.
But the point of the Chrome ad filter wasn't to put a check on ads—that was just an unintended side-benefit that was played up to look good. The real goal is much bigger and makes a lot more sense. To understand, let's retrace the steps from the beginning.
Eliminating Bad Ads—or Competitors?
Google, along with the biggest ad tech vendors, advertisers, agencies, and trade bodies, created the Coalition for Better Ads.
Members pay between $20,000 and $100,000 to belong to the coalition.
— Jessica Davies (Digiday)
The goal was to "improve consumers' experience with online advertising" so more people won't be driven to install AdBlock just to avoid the online ad clutter.
This group surveyed more than 22,000 users (in North America and Europe) to find how they perceived ad formats—in an effort to "develop and implement new global standards for online advertising that address consumer expectations".
Then they decided that the worst ones must go:
From Desktop as well as Mobile
Autoplay video with sound
Prestitial ads with countdown
Large sticky ads
Furthermore, from Mobile
Flashing animated ads
Full-screen rollover
Poststitial ads with countdown
Other criteria included no more than 30% ads limit and restricting sound on autoplay ads based on how the user engaged with media content on that site before.
Chrome, as the one with over 50% global market share among browsers, was in a perfect position to enforce these standards with a very large stick: Publishers must remove the annoying formats or all their ads (even the ones that are standard-compliant) will get blocked from Chrome.
Note that AdX and AdSense ads aren't exempt from this. But since Google doesn't allow most of it on its advertising platforms anyway, it felt like Google was, "enforcing a phony policy to cut other networks out," as one network executive puts it.
The Fine Print about "Filtering" Ads
Google wasn't about to take a lit matchstick to its ad revenue just to make ads less annoying for half the online population. So it put down some ground rules.
In a statement released in December 2017, Google clarified the factors based on which Chrome will decide where it will block all ads:
In the first phase of the Program's operation, the threshold for non-compliance for web sites will be measured according to the following percentages of page views assessed:
7.5% in the first two months following the Effective Date of the Program (15th Feb, 2018)
5% in the ensuing four months
2.5% in the months thereafter
This means that Chrome will 'tolerate' bad ads on 7.5% of total pageviews for the first two months, restricting it to 2.5% from August 2018 forward. The implication is that none of the annoying formats will be completely gone from Chrome, but they will become a lot less frequent. A publisher with 1,000 pageviews a month, for instance, can still serve 'annoying' ads on 25 of them and it will be a-okay.
Another policy update clarified how Chrome will block autoplay video ads w/sound.
"Autoplay video with sound will be restricted on the first page of user sessions if the user hasn't previously shown interest in media content on the site." Unmuted autoplay ads are not allowed on mobile unless the user adds the site to their home-screen.
One week before the February 15 deadline, Google revealed that barely 1% sites will be affected by the filter.
Google reviewed over 100,000 websites in North America and Europe since June as part of an ongoing audit of publishers' ads to ensure they're compliant with Better Ads standards. The sites are being reviewed to make sure publishers are aware of bad ads on their site so they can take quick action to fix them.
Of the 100,000+ sites surveyed, 0.5% were at the "warning" level of potentially being blocked. Only 0.9% were at the "failing level" and would be blocked.
Google says that 37% of sites found in violation of the Coalition's standards have already fixed their advertising issues.
But enough of that. Here's how it affected publishers.
"Hardly any impact," say Publishers
Since Chrome's filter puts the onus on publishers to refrain from serving 'bad ads', we asked some sell-side executives if they had seen an impact (warnings received, drop in yield, etc.) since the filter went live.
A UK-based gaming publisher says there was no impact. "But that's because we refrain from crappy ad experiences and always have," he adds.
A Germany-based automotive publisher reveals, "One of our demand sources with high-impact ads (expandable half-page) added a filter based on window-size before 15th Feb. There was about 25% less qualified inventory for them and a small revenue decrease due to it."
It is worth noting that high-impact ads aren't considered 'annoying' by Better Ads standards.
"It is a common format in Germany, and it literally unfolds to cover half the page. I know Axel Springer is a big publisher who's doing it, and considering their Better Ads Standard involvement, I don't know if it will be blocked or not," says the German sell-side exec.
An Indian media executive attests to the popularity of the formats. "The publishers here make the bulk of their money from high impact ads; standard formats are dirt cheap." He also reveals that Google has approached Indian publishers to come up with a standard for blocking which will be acceptable to them – since it has no framework for blocking ads on Indian sites yet.
Google has its own repository of high-impact ad formats available to DoubleClick advertisers. It's safe to say no one will be considering these formats 'annoying' anytime soon.
"High impact solutions which refrain from being irritable (with auto-expanding/audio) will be okay," says Sanjot Singh, associate director of programmatic partnerships at Affle. "Stitch up your ad formats to ensure they aren't too flashy, be within Google's line, and you should be good to go—at least until Google has another change of heart."
More Than Ads, the Filter Aims to Throttle AdBlock
The Register's Andrew Orlowski goes into detail about how Chrome's big move was utterly ineffectual. The filter wouldn't convince the loyalists to turn their adblock off, which is why at least three Coalition members—Google, Taboola, and Criteo—already pay AdBlock Plus to have their ads whitelisted.
On the part of the Coalition, it was never about fighting adblock head on. It's a small, measured sacrifice of inventory on their part to draw in the bigger game. The bulk of focus is on making ad experience better on mobile, because the real objective is to prevent AdBlock's growth on mobile the way it took over the desktop. As more vendors join the program, the standards might evolve to include more ad formats or be enforced by more browser vendors.
It's a step towards ensuring that the publishers won't be closing shop from failing earnings reports. It could mean users won't be denied access to content because they were trying to preserve their bandwidth, or were concerned about malverts, or were annoyed by the endless barrage of ads.
If the Coalition succeeds, it could mean that the content remains free and unrestricted on the web. It could mean publishers stay in business without annoying their audiences. That's worth aiming for, even if the journey there is led by companies who turned the web into a swamp of crappy ads in the first place.
The Chrome ad filter is available to users across the world, but currently filters ads on sites based in Europe and North America only.

While it was the predominant faith of the region until about the 11th century, Buddhism is now the third largest religion in Bangladesh with about 0.7% of population adhering to Theravada Buddhism. Over 65% of the Buddhist population is concentrated in the Chittagong Hill Tracts region, where Buddhism the predominant faith of the Chakma, Marma, Tanchangya and other Jumma people, while the remaining 35% of the population are from the Bengali Buddhist community. Buddhist communities are present in the urban centers of Bangladesh, particularly Chittagong and Dhaka.
As of 2014, followers of Buddhism are mainly people of Baruas living in Chittagong city, the business city of Bangladesh and indigenous Arakanese descent living in the sub-tropical Chittagong Hill Tracts. People who follow Buddhism in Bangladesh belong to the Barua people in majority with the percentage of 65% among the 0.07% population of Bangladesh, Chakma, Chak, Marma, Tanchangya and the Khyang, who had been since time in memorial have practiced Buddhism. Other tribal, notably those who practice Animism, have come under some Buddhist influence, and this is true in the case of the Khumi and the Mru, and to a lesser extent on the other tribals.
Legend said that Gautama Buddha came to the region to spread Buddhism, and it was speculated that one or two individuals became monks to follow his footsteps. However, Buddhism did not gain much support until under the reign of Asoka when Buddhism gained a toehold. The Pala Empire that controlled the Indian subcontinent spread many Buddhist ideologies in modern Bangladesh and built many monasteries such as the Mahasthangarh and the Somapura Mahavihara. Also within the same Pala era, a famous preacher named Atisha was born in the city of Bikrampur and spread Tibetan-Buddhism.
Buddhism in various forms appears to have been prevalent at the time of the Turkish conquest in 1202. The invading armies apparently found numerous monasteries, which they destroyed. With the destruction of its centers of learning such as Nalanda University, Buddhism rapidly disintegrated. In subsequent centuries and up through the 1980s nearly all the remaining Buddhists lived in the region around Chittagong, which had not been entirely conquered until the time of the British Raj (1858–1947). During the 19th century, a revival movement developed that led to the development of two orders of Theravada monks, the Sangharaj Nikaya and the Mahasthabir Nikaya.

Bargain Basement moves to a new location
Photos: Community based thrift store provides necessary resources to residents
Aman Parhar
Sep. 9, 2019 11:15 a.m.
The Bargain Basement thrift store in Fort St. James has moved to a different location and the volunteers operating the store said the community has been very supportive in the move.
The thrift store is now located on #2 – 207 Douglas Ave. and a grand opening was held on Saturday, Sept. 7.
The community based thrift store is run by volunteers and Jennifer, one of the volunteers said the store has never needed to ask for funding before this move.
"We have always been an organization that gives money out. But for this move, we applied for a number of grants and received money from the Integris Credit Union, the Regional District of Bulkley-Nechako, the District of Fort St. James and Community Foundation," she said.
With the current economic downturn in the district, the community based thrift store provides necessary resources for residents.
Instead of consumable goods going into the landfill, it gets back into the market where people can access them with a greater reduced price, Jennifer added.
The thrift store is looking for more volunteers and anyone interested can go to the thrift store and inquire about applications.
In terms of economic benefits to the community, the thrift store donates a bursary every year to the high school. The store has also given funds to the Hospital Auxiliary groups for different equipment.
Additionally they have provided relief in terms of materials and funds to residents who may have lost their homes to a fire. Bargain Basement also has a relationship with the Key Resource Centre and the local shelter, where they provide these organizations with coupons for people who are struggling.
"Donations have increased ten fold since we moved to this location. I have nothing but good things to say about the women who work in the back sorting through all the donations," Jennifer said.
Amy Murray and Jean King are the women who have volunteered to be markers. Both Murray and King spend hours deciding whether material donated gets sold, put on racks, etc. The Fort St. James thrift store has a relationship with Salvation Army in Prince George where they recycle fibres, so that no donated item goes to the landfill.

The death of Jim Brady brings to mind Ronald Reagan's support for gun control
Mount Shasta Herald
Today's conservatives generally seem not to remember that Saint Ronaldus Maximus was an advocate of gun control.
The death of former White House Press Secretary Jim Brady is a perfect occasion to remind Americans of what Reagan actually said about guns.
A good example is a COLUMN Reagan once wrote for The New York Times:
While there has been a Federal law on the books for more than 20 years that prohibits the sale of firearms to felons, fugitives, drug addicts and the mentally ill, it has no enforcement mechanism and basically works on the honor system, with the purchaser filling out a statement that the gun dealer sticks in a drawer.
The Brady bill would require the handgun dealer to provide a copy of the prospective purchaser's sworn statement to local law enforcement authorities so that background checks could be made. Based upon the evidence in states that already have handgun purchase waiting periods, this bill — on a nationwide scale — can't help but stop thousands of illegal handgun purchases.
And, since many handguns are acquired in the heat of passion (to settle a quarrel, for example) or at times of depression brought on by potential suicide, the Brady bill would provide a cooling-off period that would certainly have the effect of reducing the number of handgun deaths.
Critics claim that "waiting period" legislation in the states that have it doesn't work, that criminals just go to nearby states that lack such laws to buy their weapons. True enough, and all the more reason to have a Federal law that fills the gaps. While the Brady bill would not apply to states that already have waiting periods of at least seven days or that already require background checks, it would automatically cover the states that don't. The effect would be a uniform standard across the country.
There were other occasions, as well, dating back even to his days as governor of California. when Reagan spoke out in favor of gun control.
In 1967, Reagan signed a California law known as the Mulford Act, ""prohibiting the carrying of firearms on one's person or in a vehicle, in any public place or on any public street."
