What We Did and How We Did It
Paperwork and Court Filings
Greetings from Reclaim The Records! We're your favorite little non-profit organization that picks fights with government agencies, archives, and libraries for better public access to genealogical records and historical materials. And we're back in your mailbox today to announce that we recently won and just released more free records, this time from the Midwest.
Introducing the first-ever publication of the Nebraska Death Index, now online for free public use at the artfully-named NebraskaDeathIndex.com!
Here's why we did it
Earlier this year, one of our board members was noodling around with some Nebraska genealogical research, and he was surprised to realize that there was no source to search for Nebraska deaths. Statewide vital records registration began in Nebraska in late 1904, so their Department of Health certainly had records going back to the early 20th century, but there was no way to search through the index of what they had.
And while recent death records in Nebraska are closed to the public for fifty years, anybody can purchase a copy of an older record. That's all fine and dandy, but how are researchers supposed to know what records exist if there isn't any index anywhere? There wasn't even any data source available to researchers at a physical location within the state of Nebraska.
Enter Reclaim the Records!
And here's how we did it
In May 2019, citing Nebraska's Public Records Law, Reclaim The Records made a request for "a copy of the Nebraska Death Index and/or finding aid to deaths, from its onset to 1968". You can read the whole request on our website (PDF), if you want, because we like making all our correspondence and court cases public.
Nebraska's law requires agencies to respond within four business days, which to their credit their Department of Health and Human Services did. Unsurprisingly, they initially rejected our public records request — we've often found that's a thing that many Departments of Health like to do, at least right up until the point when we show up with our lawyers. But somewhat more surprisingly, Nebraska DHSS also denied that they even had an index for their state death records. And they helpfully added that death records can only be obtained upon the payment of a statutory fee by entitled parties. While this was true, it was not entirely relevant, because look, we only wanted the index.
This Nebraska Public Records Act denial was received by e-mail just as our board member running the project was waiting to board a flight to Vietnam. Fearing a loss of momentum, he managed to create and submit our formal Public Records Act appeal to the requisite authority within an hour, just as he was lining up to board his flight.
In Nebraska, the state Attorney General is able to issue binding rulings about public records requests. So our board member forwarded all the online correspondence to the AG's office, and requested that they adjudicate the situation. Within about two weeks, they had gotten back to us, and behind the scenes, the Nebraska Attorney General's Office had been able to negotiate with the Department of Health and Human Services to amend their response to our request. Another win for Reclaim The Records!
In other words, we didn't get this state death index online through glad-handing or pleading or making backroom deals for records digitization in a secret no-bid contract with a Department of Health, which is a thing some other groups might do *cough*. Instead, we got the records released by using the law and not taking No for an answer.
So after the Attorney General dealt with them, the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services caved to our request. They conceded that yes, a state death index does exist (like, duh), and that yes, we could have a copy, upon payment. And they provided us various options for how to reproduce it.
All about the Nebraska Death Index, Part I: The 1904-1955 books
Nebraska DHSS told us that the section of the death index covering 1904-1955 was only available in a printed series of eleven oversize books, each about 800 pages in length. This data must have been originally typed into some long-antiquated database to result in such a product, but unfortunately, the only format that had survived to 2019 were the books. The original data must have flown away to punch-card heaven.
This left us with the need to scan the pages of these large-format books and put the images online. So that's what we did. We at Reclaim The Records paid the state of Nebraska a little over $2,000 to send all the index books to their State Digitization Center, who needed about four months to scan the entire series. (The original estimate was more like $9,000, but to our happy surprise they came in significantly under budget.) They did a great job, and the quality of the scans is very good. Here's a sample image:
These eleven books combine all the records from 1904-1955, and are not divided by year. And they are sorted by the Soundex code of the surname, not strictly alphabetically. (In the image above, that's Soundex code L-352.) So we added a helpful Soundex code generator to NebraskaDeathIndex.com to help you figure out what the Soundex code is for any given surname, and therefore which book to check. The records are then sorted alphabetically by the given name within each Soundex code.
There are some abbreviations added next to some of the names, like "In O" for "infant of","S/B" for "stillborn", and "Sis" for Sister, meaning a nun. There are also multiple handwritten markings in red ink on the pages of the books, sometimes notating dates in the 1960's through the 1980's. We're not sure what those mean, but as a guess, it might be a date that someone had requested a copy of a certificate.
All of the entries in the death index give at least a year of death, the two digits in the far-right column, but maybe only about 15% of the entries have the full date of death, more commonly in the entries for the late 1940's and 1950's.
Finally, the good news is that every entry in these books also gives a two digit numeric code for the county of death — but the bad news is that we have not yet found a key to tell us which number matches up with which Nebraska county. We're still asking around, though, and will mention it in a future newsletter if we find one.
We presume that within a year or two, all of our favorite genealogical websites will have created some kind of transcribed and text-seachable version of this data. But for now, if you're looking for a 1904-1955 death, you'll need to check these images.
All about the Nebraska Death Index, Part II: The 1956-1968 database
Meanwhile, the index for Nebraska deaths from 1956-1968 was already in a text database format. (Hooray!) The Department of Health warned us that the database quality was not perfect, but they said that they could either send us the data as-is for about $33 or that we could have the state verify and clean up all the data for an additional $194,000, if we wanted…?
(You can probably guess which option we chose.)
The database has fields for Given Name, Middle Initial, Surname, Date of Death, County of Death, and State File Number. And while you can search this data on our new NebraskaDeathIndex.com website, you can also download the underlying CSV file, if you really prefer doing genealogy-by-spreadsheet. We like sharing data!
Nebraska Public Records Law Request (May 30, 2019)

The key takeaway is here: agencies cannot use exempt information as primary keys and then claim an exemption to withhold information about how records are related to each other.

@boylegenealogy Also, a private company may write into a contract with a public gov't archive (city, state, national...) that the newly digitized records will be "exclusive" and "cannot be redistributed" after scanning...
Turns out, people may write all kinds of legally unenforceable things. 😂

Core ethical values of archivists incl. transparency of processes & accessibility to the documents in our care. It's made even worse by the fact that @USNatArchives is a govt agency & this is a matter of public interest. But NARA has had a transparency problem for over a decade. https://twitter.com/DoinaChiacu/status/1618666077600235520
Doina Chiacu @DoinaChiacu
The National Archives reportedly sent a letter to former U.S. presidents and vice presidents to check whether there are classified documents in their possession, per CNN. @USNatArchives, which deals with public records, is not making its letter public. It did not comment.

Reclaim The Records @reclaimtherecs ·
You know, maybe some companies shouldn't have based their entire financial model on pretending that they magically have "exclusive" rights to digital public records.
"Exclusive" public records IS AND ALWAYS WAS A LIE, no matter how many times they put it in the contracts.
This morning, we at RTR got word that a state that had given @Ancestry "exclusive" rights to scan and index decades of their old vital records will be forced to turn over all the images and metadata to us within thirty days.
CHANGE IS C̶O̶M̶I̶N̶G̶ HERE. 😎
Gen-Z Genealogy @genzgenealogy
will we ever see a future where records of our ancestors aren't behind a paywall??
NetSecNoOps @beardedpackets ·
@BarbFFm @genzgenealogy Several places would scan and make the images available on the Internet without asking for money. As long as governments stop treating public records like a profit center, access is impeded when it doesn't have to be.

HUGE news for people with any known or suspected New York City ancestors or relatives! Like, HUGE. Okay, hold onto your chair because we're about to say something nice about the New York City Municipal Archives: they've done something really good. Tomorrow morning, March 16th, the Archives is launching a brand new website with online scans of ALL of their historical New York City vital records. That means all historical birth certificates, marriage certificates AND the "new" marriage licenses, and death certificates, will all be put online as beautiful new color scans. And here's the thing: the Archives is going to make them FREE. They're not going to charge us to see them, nor to download them. They're not going to try to scam us for money just to see non-copyrighted taxpayer-created historical records about our own families. They're not going to sell them to Ancestry. They're finally, finally going to follow the law and make these public records free to the public. This is a HUGE and very welcome departure from the usual behavior of the Archives over the past few decades. As just one example, this is the same agency that in the recent past had purposely forced FamilySearch to pull public access to their own scans of their own forty-year-old microfilms of these exact same vital records from all FamilySearch affiliate libraries (that is, public libraries around the world), leaving the only public access at actual Family History Centers, which are much fewer in number. This is the same agency that still has a horrendous "publish and use" contract in place, which they somehow want to make much worse (!), that requires researchers to ask the agency's permission to reprint or reuse copies of historical non-copyrighted (and usually non-copyrightable!) public domain materials, in books or journal articles or other media. In fact, the contract is so stupendously illegal that it actually mandates that you turn over copies of your own negatives of the photos you take of "their" materials to the City of New York. Like some sort of bananas "Mother May I" permission slip, with a huge fee attached. This is the same agency that we have had to fight in court for SEVEN YEARS now, winning three separate Freedom of Information Law suits against them and with another very big FOIL suit still in progress against them, which we just filed in court last month. Even the multiple smaller FOIL requests we've made against them over the years, ones that somehow didn't require a lawsuit, still took months and months of follow-ups and constant nagging, just to get some copies made of some old microfilms they hold. Dealing with this agency and trying to get them to JUST FOLLOW THE LAW, PLEASE has been an experience. And yet here we are four lawsuits later and…a cool new website is launching tomorrow? With free records?! OMG! (Gosh, we wonder what prompted their sudden change in attitude? 🤔) Anyway, their new site is not complete yet. Only about 70% of the vital records have been scanned and put online so far. There are still some big gaps, such as missing Manhattan death certificates after 1930. The search interface has some bugs, and isn't great with soundalike names. The primary person's name in a record is indexed, but the parents' names generally are not. The index itself has typos, as you might expect when working off old handwritten sources. But. It's online, it's here, and it's FREE for the first time. Credit where credit is due, even to an often-opponent, right? We don't have the final website URL for you right now, but by the time you read this tomorrow, the Archives should likely have the link posted on their social media pages. And if you see it, please stick it in the comments as soon as it's been made public. The site's stability may go up and down with heavy traffic, so it might take a while before you can really use it. But it's certainly worth checking out — and celebrating.

Roses are red🌹 / Violets are blue 💙 / For Valentine's Day 💝 / We decided to sue👩⚖ Reclaim The Records is super-excited to announce that we have just sued the NYC Department of Records, the parent agency of the NYC Municipal Archives. Yes, again. But this time, we're asking for copies of ALL their digital images, including EVERY BIRTH, MARRIAGE, and DEATH record they hold! And we're gonna set it all free, forever. 😌 We originally submitted our Freedom of Information Law (#FOIL) request to the Archives back in October 2020. At the time, we jokingly called it our "Release the Kraken!" FOIL request, because it was one of the largest record requests we'd ever lobbed at a government agency. (A few days later, the phrase "release the Kraken!" acquired an unfortunate and unintended political association in the news, which was certainly not our intent, so now we're reclaiming the term "Kraken" along with reclaiming our records.) Anyway. The city strung us along for fifteen months without providing any yes-or-no answer at all, even though the law requires an answer within twenty days. That was certainly…a choice. But that also means we now get to hit them up for the records *and* for our attorneys fees in this suit. The longer and more detailed backstory about this request, the records we're seeking, and PDF copies of all the related letters and appeals and court filings, are all online here on our website: www.reclaimtherecords.org/records-request/28/ To be clear: we're going after almost every already-digitized record held at the Archives, including the ones they've scanned but *never* put online before — like the historical NYC vital records. And we even mean the newly-scanned hi-resolution color versions of the files, not just the old black and white microfilms that FamilySearch was able to acquire circa 1981. But this lawsuit also includes many record sets such as the 1890 "Police Census" where the Archives may have allowed some groups to have copies of the images over the years, but not distribute them widely, nor for free. And we're also going after records that the Archives scanned and did put online on their city-run "Luna Imaging" website, but which they never made available to the public as bulk downloads before. This would include record sets like the Almshouse records, the 1820's jury census records, the 1940's NYC "tax photos", and much more. Basically, if the New York City Municipal Archives has ever scanned or digitized a historical record, whether it was online or only on an internal hard drive or whatever, we're now asking for a copy in this lawsuit. It's a massive amount of data. And we want it all back, and we want to put it all online for free. Because they're our records, and our taxes paid for them. Public records belong to the public. Here's the direct link to the text of our "verified petition" filed in court: www.reclaimtherecords.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/reclaim_the_records_vs_new_york_city_municip… It's short and very sweet, as a Valentine's Day gift should be. And here's a Twitter thread we just wrote with more information, and an even more detailed backstory about these files, and how we got to the point of even needing this lawsuit in the first place: twitter.com/ReclaimTheRecs/status/1493841144832151553 Enjoy! 💝 (And if you like this kind of work we do, and like seeing records go online for free public use, won't you be our Valentine too, and consider making a tax-deductible donation to our lil' non-profit today?) www.reclaimtherecords.org/donate/
HOMEGROWN IN THE GARDEN STATE It's the first-ever online publication of the NEW JERSEY GEOGRAPHIC BIRTH INDEX and the NEW JERSEY DELAYED BIRTH INDEX, 1901-1929! Hello again from your friends at Reclaim The Records! We're here on this fine "Giving Tuesday" — every non-profit organization's favorite fake holiday — to tell you that we just got a whole bunch of new genealogical records, they're all freshly scanned and uploaded and online now for the first time ever, and they're totally FREE, because we never charge for records access. And who doesn't love a "Giving Tuesday" post that starts out like that, right? (And it's not midnight yet on the west coast, so it's still Tuesday here.) Introducing the New Jersey Geographic Birth Index, 1901-1929! It's the first-ever online publication of a twentieth century birth index from the Garden State (well, except for that time a few years ago when we got the 1901-1903 birth index and put that up, too). But this time around, we got the GEOGRAPHIC birth index, which means that it's a list of births that have been separated by county of birth, and sometimes by a major city within the county, and it's not just a purely alphabetical list. Based on published New Jersey vital statistics, we think this collection covers 1,762,288 births in New Jersey (give or take a few) from 1901-1929, which were typed into books, which were then photographed onto 92 microfilm reels. Each of the reels has a few hundred images. It's 493 GB in total. 😳 We were originally tipped off about the existence of the geographic birth index microfilms by New Jersey genealogist Melissa Johnson. We were then able to get brand new copies made of the microfilms from the very nice archivists at the New Jersey State Archives, in Trenton. It was super-chill and unlike some of our adventures in other states, we didn't even have to threaten any open records lawsuits at all! Imagine a world where all archivists are that great about data sharing… And then our awesome friends at FamilySearch once again stepped up and donated the labor to scan all the films for us (thank yoooooou!). That means that the index images will likely show up on their website sometime in the very near future, and then undoubtedly at all the other genealogy websites we all like to use, as well. And presumably some or all of those organizations and companies will set up a proper indexing project for the images, too, to create a real text-searchable database. Want to learn how to TEXT-SEARCH the data in these images, even though there isn't really a transcription project or a database version yet? Want to learn about the DELAYED BIRTH INDEX with mothers' maiden names, which we also got? Want to learn how to ORDER A BIRTH CERTIFICATE of someone you find in these records? Well, you can read more about ALL these things here: www.reclaimtherecords.org/records-request/29/ And it's all free, thanks to a genealogist who knew about the records, an archive who was helpful and allowed us to buy copies, a non-profit (FamilySearch) who did the tedious scanning work, and another non-profit (the Internet Archive) who let us upload and serve almost 500 GB of images to and from their servers. But here's the kicker to our "Giving Tuesday" post. (And you knew this was coming, right?) We're a non-profit, too. And we need your help. We love finding really great genealogical records that ought to be online, and then making it happen. Sometimes we can strike a great deal and it all goes exceedingly well, as it did here. But sometimes we need to hire lawyers and sue to get our records back. We're very good at it and have a great track record, including at least three recent lawsuit wins that we haven't even publicly announced yet (omg!!!) but it's also not inexpensive. If you like seeing records like the New Jersey birth index go online for free, for everyone, forever, and you want to see us keep doing this kind of thing, and in more states nationwide, please consider making a donation to help fund our work. We really appreciate your support! (And you can donate on our website.) Thank you for your support! ☺

It can be hard to read a map if you're blind, so a team of researchers from the University of Buffalo and Touch Graphics, Inc. (NY, NY) have developed special 3D maps that are specifically designed to be used by people with poor vision.
The map is composed of 3D-printed components, including streets, buildings, and the landscape. The map and objects on it are illuminated from below to help those with poor but still working vision to better see what they're looking at. When the user touches something on the map, the object is lit-up from above and a digitized voice describes what the object is and can provide directions to the spot if needed.

Q: Webpack: Loading images from html templates I'm trying to set up an angular project using Webpack but I can't figure out how to reference images from within html templates and have them included in the build.
My project tree is as follows:
package.json
app/
- images/
  - foo.png
- scripts/
- styles/
- templates/

I'm trying to use html-loader along with url-loader and file-loader but it's just not happening.
This is an example template: app/templates/foo.html

Problem #1: I would like to be able to reference images relative to app/. Right now, the paths need to be relative to the template file and this will get ugly very quickly (../../../images/foo.png).
Problem #2: Even if I specify the relative path, as I have done above, the project builds successfully but nothing really happens. The paths are left as-is and no images appear in dist/.
Here is my webpack config:
var path = require('path');
var webpack = require('webpack');
var ngminPlugin = require('ngmin-webpack-plugin');
var HtmlWebpackPlugin = require('html-webpack-plugin');
var ExtractTextPlugin = require('extract-text-webpack-plugin');
var ngAnnotatePlugin = require('ng-annotate-webpack-plugin');
module.exports = function(config, env) {
  var appRoot = path.join(__dirname, 'app/')
  if(!env) env = 'development';
  var webpackConfig = {
    cache: true,
    debug: true,
    contentBase: appRoot,
    entry: {
      app: path.join(appRoot, '/scripts/app.coffee')
    },

    output: {
      path: path.join(__dirname, 'dist/),
      publicPath: '/',
      libraryTarget: 'var',
      filename: 'scripts/[name].[hash].js',
      chunkFilename: '[name].[chunkhash].js'
    },

    module: {
      loaders: [
        {
          test: /\.css$/,
          loader: ExtractTextPlugin.extract("style-loader", "css-loader")
        },
        {
            test: /\.scss$/,
            loader: ExtractTextPlugin.extract('style-loader', 'css-loader!sass-loader?outputStyle=expanded&includePaths[]=./node_modules/foundation/scss/')
        },
        {
          test: /\.coffee$/,
          loader: 'coffee-loader'
        },
        {
          loader: 'ngtemplate?relativeTo=' + (path.resolve(__dirname, './app')) + '/!html'
        },
        {
          test: /\.png$/, loader: "url-loader?limit=100000&mimetype=image/png&name=[path][name].[hash].[ext]"
        },
        {
          test: /\.jpg$/, loader: "file-loader?name=[path][name].[hash].[ext]"
        },
        {
          test: /\.(woff|woff2)(\?(.*))?$/,
          loader: 'url?prefix=factorynts/&limit=5000&mimetype=application/font-woff'
        },
        {
          test: /\.ttf(\?(.*))?$/,
          loader: 'file?prefix=fonts/'
        },
        {
          test: /\.eot(\?(.*))?$/,
          loader: 'file?prefix=fonts/'
        },
        {
          test: /\.svg(\?(.*))?$/,
          loader: 'file?prefix=fonts/'
        },
        {
          test: /\.json$/,
          loader: 'json'
        }
      ]
    },

    resolve: {
      extensions: [
        '',
        '.js',
        '.coffee',
        '.scss',
        '.css'
      ],
      root: [appRoot],
    },

    singleRun: true,
    plugins: [
      new webpack.ContextReplacementPlugin(/.*$/, /a^/),
      new webpack.ProvidePlugin({
        '_': 'lodash'
      }),
      new ExtractTextPlugin("styles/[name].[chunkhash].css", {allChunks: true}),
      new HtmlWebpackPlugin({
        template: appRoot + '/app.html',
        filename: 'app.html',
        inject: 'body',
        chunks: ['app']
      })
    ],
    devtool: 'eval'
  }

  if(env === 'production') {
    webpackConfig.plugins = webpackConfig.plugins.concat(
      new ngAnnotatePlugin(),
      new webpack.optimize.UglifyJsPlugin(),
      new webpack.DefinePlugin({
        'process-env': {
          'NODE_ENV': JSON.stringify('production')
        }
      }),
      new webpack.optimize.DedupePlugin(),
      new webpack.optimize.UglifyJsPlugin()
    );
    webpackConfig.devtool = false;
    webpackConfig.debug = false;
  }
  return webpackConfig;

}

A: With Webpack 4, I was able to solve this problem by updating by html-loader to specify the root for my files.  So given @syko's original structure; in webpack.config.js...
module: {
  rules: [
    // other stuff above.....
    {
      test: /\.html$/,
      use: [
        // ...The other file-loader and extract-loader go here.
        {
          loader: 'html-loader'
          options: {
            // THIS will resolve relative URLs to reference from the app/ directory
            root: path.resolve(__dirname, 'app')
          }
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

This tells the html-loader to interpret all absolute urls from the /app folder.  So in our app/templates/foo.html, you can then use the following...

This then tells html-loader to see the above as path.resolve(__dirname, 'app', 'images', 'foo.png').  Then if you have extract-loader and/or file-loader, all the paths should be correct.
Managed to get this solution after hammering away at it for a while.  The biggest confusion is where about in the loader stack the /images/foo.png is interpreted, in this case it starts at the html-loader plugin.   Everything else after that, is more about how the image files are to be published.
Hope that helps.

A: You can use file-loader to extract images. Then using html-loader you can specify which tag-attribute combination should be processed by this loader via the query parameter attrs.
I could make it work with this configuration:
{
    test: /\.(jpe?g|png|gif|svg|ico)$/i,
    use: [{
        loader: 'file-loader',
        options: {
            name: '[name].[ext]',
            outputPath: 'images/'
        }
    }]
},
{
    test: /\.(html)$/,
    use: {
        loader: 'html-loader',
        options: {
            attrs: ['img:src', 'link:href']
        }
    }
}

Or in angular something like this:
attrs: [':ng-src', ':ng-href']

A: If you are using HTML templates in Webpack 2, in addition to use the file-loader you need to change in your HTML:

to this
<img src=<%=require("../images/foo.png")%> />

A: *

*Yes, you will have to do so for loading images from different path.

*I had similar issue and I resolved this using file loader:

.
loaders: [{
  // JS LOADER
  test: /\.js$/,
  loader: 'babel-loader?optional[]=runtime',
  exclude: /node_modules/
}, {
  // ASSET LOADER
  test: /\.(woff|woff2|ttf|eot)$/,
  loader: 'file-loader'
},
{
  //IMAGE LOADER
  test: /\.(jpe?g|png|gif|svg)$/i,
  loader:'file-loader'
},
{
  // HTML LOADER
  test: /\.html$/,
  loader: 'html-loader'
},
{
  //SCSS LOADER
  test: /\.scss$/,
  loaders: ["style-loader", "css-loader", "sass-loader?indentedSyntax"]
}
]

Good Luck

A: For Webpack 5 you have to write this way:
module: {
  rules: [
    // other stuff above.....
    {
      test: /\.html$/,
      use: [
        {
          loader: 'html-loader'
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Logging began in the 1830s bringing the first white men to the area. Property abstracts indicate that the railroads, followed later by logging companies, owned the lands within Ogema Township through the latter part of the 1800s. Land was traded between the logging companies much like money in those days. Intense logging of the pine resource resulted in large wildfires, often lit by farmers clearing land to plant crops. (Beaufeaux, 2007) Without commercial fertilizers, the soils were soon depleted and the State started to buy out the farm homesteaders. Early plat books indicate that Ogema was divided into many, small, private ownerships, which have now been incorporated into St Croix Park and St Croix State Forest ownership. Beginning in the 1930s, a CCC camp was established and helped to create the St. Croix State Park. Currently County, State and Federal lands comprise approximately 54 percent of the Township, with tribal lands at approximately 9 percent, leaving private ownership at approximately 37 percent.
Due to the natural attractions within the Township and people's willingness to commute, the population of Ogema is rapidly growing, with a 32 percent increase between the 1990 and 2000 censuses. In addition, there is a significant demand for absentee land ownership, which has been driving up land values and cabin development.

Lets talk about this little picture that I just so happened to come across in New York City. I absolutely fell in love with it so of course, I had to buy it!
I've always found quotes like this very intriguing because I start to think about my life and who I am as a person. The circumstances I've been placed in and what I've taken from those, good or bad.
Right now, it's making me think of my reality of having Kleine-Levin Syndrome. I've been asked by many people, "do you wish you never had it?" My answer to that is no. As terrifying as this syndrome can be, the months I've lost in my life and everything that happened along the way, has all made me become the person I am today. If I didn't have KLS, I wouldn't be writing this post, I would never have thought to start a blog and I wouldn't be trying to inspire people to embrace and be thankful for every moment of their life. I've met some new people that may have never crossed my path, I've lost some friends but I've become closer to even more. Everything would be different which is why I'm so grateful for my life and the situations I have faced and grown from.
I believe the sentence,"You are what you take from these." is so true and whatever that is, is who we become. If I hated the fact that I have KLS, I wouldn't be where I am at today. I don't think I would be nearly as grateful as I am right now, I wouldn't be teaching you nor would I be trying to encourage anyone. I took my personal situation which may not be the greatest and I turned it into something positive. I absolutely love my life and the fact that I am one in a million who got to experience a rare neurological disorder. I don't think many people would say that but I am exactly what I took from this. My goal is for you to make sure you take the best out of everything you've been through. I know how difficult it can be when we are faced with unfortunate situations and we don't know what to do, but we cannot let those times make us bitter. I have a very strong belief that everything happens for a reason and however we handle it, will show who we are.
Now focusing on the sentence that says, "So drown yourself in a sea of knowledge and existence." Having KLS has taught me so much about the brain and what it is capable of, some of which I may have never learnt if I didn't go through this. Having this knowledge, I have taught hundreds of people about this syndrome. These people may have never come across it and I hope I have helped you, just like how someone helped lead me in the right direction of a diagnosis. Every single day, we are constantly learning even if we don't feel like we are. I am constantly learning about myself and you are learning about yourself. Life isn't about merely existing, it's about living, learning and growing from the situations you are faced with. Good or bad, whatever you take from those is who you are and who you will become.
I am everything I have taken from my experiences, the songs that I listen to, books that I read, movies that I watch are who I am. The same applies to you.

News Google's Blogspot service mistakenly blocked in Turkey for one day
Google's Blogspot service mistakenly blocked in Turkey for one day
The İstanbul 10th Penal Court of Peace mistakenly banned access for one day to the Google-owned Blogspot blogging service on Tuesday due to an error in the written decision, according to an expert on Internet law.
Lawyer and academic Yaman Akdeniz said the İstanbul court received an application to block bilgeadam-magdurlari.blogspot.com and ordered a block on access to the website; however, in the written decision the court failed to include the website's URL correctly, causing a block on all blogs with the blogspot.com extension.
"Even if the lawyer who made the application wrote the wrong address, the court or [the watchdog that implements the court order] should have noticed the mistake," Akdeniz tweeted.
After the mistake was corrected, access to Blogspot.com was reinstated.
The bilgeadam-magdurlari.blogspot.com (victims of Bilge Adam) blog was swamped with complaints from consumers who bought services from a company called Bilge Adam, which requested that the court block it.
Blogspot is particularly popular with personal bloggers and commercial content publishers in Turkey. Users note that it provides an important source of revenue for some of the country's top bloggers and independent authors, offering an open and monetizable platform for the exchange of ideas and commentary online.
Turkish government has also banned Wikipedia in Turkey since late April 2017. Turkish Authorities claimed the ban was instituted when Wikipedia declined to take down content alleging that Turkey had provided support for alleged terrorist groups.
Access to platforms including Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and WhatsApp have been periodically restricted in Turkey numerous times since 2014, particularly after tumultuous events like mass demonstrations, suicide bomb attacks, or the controversial coup attempt in July 2016. The Wikimedia Foundation's efforts to restore access failed so far.
The Wikipedia block is part of a wider trend toward control of information online in Turkey. As Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan seeks to maintain his tight grip on power, he has also worked to curtail Internet freedom in Turkey.
The country had one of the three largest declines in Freedom House's Freedom on the Net index last year due to the repeated suspension of telecommunications networks and social media access, as well as sweeping arrests for political speech online.
Turkey is ranked 157th among 180 countries in the 2018 World Press Freedom Index released by Reporters Without Borders (RSF). If Turkey falls two more places, it will make it to the list of countries on the blacklist, which have the poorest record in press freedom.
Turkey is the biggest jailer of journalists in the world. The most recent figures documented by SCF show that 240 journalists and media workers were in jail as of July 24, 2018, most in pretrial detention. Of those in prison 179 were under arrest pending trial while only 61 journalists have been convicted and are serving their time. Detention warrants are outstanding for 144 journalists who are living in exile or remain at large in Turkey.
Detaining tens of thousands of people over alleged links to the Gülen movement, the government also closed down some 200 media outlets, including Kurdish news agencies and newspapers, after a coup attempt in Turkey on July 15, 2016.

Q: Parse various human readable time formats to a time object (datetime.time) in Python? I have a list of strings that may be time objects. Note: NOT datetime objects or timestamp objects. These are times without a reference to epoch or date. For example:
time_strings = ['6:00PM', '7:00pm', '8:00am', '17:00:00', '4PM']

Is there a good parsing utility that can convert these into datetime.time objects as opposed to datetime.datetime objects (which by default input the current date)?
The standard 'datetime.datetime.strptime() both requires that the time be of a known format and yields a datetime.datetime.object, for example:
from datetime import datetime
datetime.strptime('6:00', '%H:%M')

yields: datetime.datetime(1900, 1, 1, 6, 0)
I have tried the following:
from dateutil.parser import parse
parse(time_strings[0])

yields: datetime.datetime(2017, 8, 24, 18, 0)
import pandas as pd
pd.to_datetime(time_strings[0])

yields: Timestamp('2017-08-24 18:00:00')
from pytimeparse import parse as tparse
tparse(time_strings[0])

fails (returns empty value)
import parsedatetime
cal = parsedatetime.Calendar()
cal.parse(time_strings[0])

Yields: (time.struct_time(tm_year=2017, tm_mon=8, tm_mday=24, tm_hour=18, tm_min=0, tm_sec=0, tm_wday=3, tm_yday=236, tm_isdst=1),
 2)
For my purposes, it is critical that no date be inferred if not in the data.
Is there a better python utility (python 3) that converts various human readable time expressions into a datetime.time object?

A: The best solution I have found is from the pandas core library:
from pandas.core.tools.datetimes import to_time
to_time(time_strings[0])

yields: datetime.time(18, 0)
Which is the desired output. However, it doesn't recognize time formats such as (4pm, 3AM, etc.) Welcome better solutions.


I am investing more time into my Schema.org work, alongside my learning about OpenAPI 3.0. I'm pretty excited about the components object, and I want to push forward some of my Schema.org dictionary ideas, to help folks get better at reusing common schema throughout their work. Schema.org is the most robust vocabulary out there, and we shouldn't be reinventing the wheel in this area. I know the most important reason that folks aren't using is that they either don't know about it, or they are just lazy. I figure if I create some ready to go schema in an OpenAPI 3.0 components object, maybe people will be more inclined to put common schema to use.
I will change all the information in this sample to reflect my work, but I figured before I did I would share this example document with my readers. At first glance it doesn't look much different than version 2.0 of OpenAPI, but once you start studying you see the differences. You see the responses have JSON specific content types inserted in between their schema references. There is also a components object, with a couple of schema present–this is all I need. There are a bunch of other things you can store in your components object, but I think this provides a nice first look at what is going on.
If you are looking for some other working examples of OpenAPI 3.0 in action, head over to Mike Ralphson's repository, he has some additional ones you can play with. I don't know about you, but I learn from others. I need to reverse engineer API definitions from other people before I become fluent myself. I'm going to spend some time hand-crafting some OpenAPI 3.0 definitions, so that I become more fluent. It is tedious work when you are just getting going, but once you get it down, it becomes like any other language you use. I'm hoping to cut my teeth on this Schema.org work. I'm going to replicate the OpenAPI 2.0 work I did when I created over a 1,000 OpenAPIs for each of the Schema.org objects. I'm going to be using them to deploy APIs for clients, and in my API training and storytelling. I want all my examples to be reuable patterns that already exist, not anything custom that I pull out of my magic arse.

Real World Economics: Time to explain the…
Real World Economics: Time to explain the basics of trade
By Edward Lotterman | stpaul@edlotterman.com |
Trade remains a hot issue.
China throws our country a bone by buying several shiploads of soybeans; the stock market reacts, or over-reacts, to news on the progress, or lack thereof, in U.S.-China trade negotiations; and the question arises of whether the Federal Reserve, or any central bank, can or should act to offset the impacts trade disputes even if central bankers think them bad policy.
Edward Lotterman
But public understanding of trade economics, and even trade terms, remains limited, as evidenced by emails from readers. A review of the basics is useful.
Trade historically consists of sales of physical goods across national borders. Sales from businesses in one country to those in another nation are exports from the first country and imports to the second. Aggregate values of these sales are tabulated in a national "balance of trade." If Canadian exporters sell more to the Netherlands than Canada's importers buy from that European nation, then Canada is said to have a balance-of-trade "surplus." The Netherlands has a "deficit."
To economists, there is nothing inherently good or bad about a surplus or deficit between any pair of countries. But to many in the general public a surplus must be good and a deficit bad. This leads to much demagoguery on the part of uneducated or unscrupulous politicians and much economic harm.
From the late Middle Ages, nearly all economic transactions across political frontiers were in physical goods. But now cross-border services, investments and intellectual property have become important as well. A St. Paul engineering firm designs the sensors and software for controlling a large sewage treatment plant in Brazil. A Minneapolis-based insurance company lays off some risk with a re-insurer in Amsterdam or Basel. Children in regional towns in Patagonia or on the Serengeti Plain love the same Pixar cartoon films that enchant kids in Roseville.
Thus there are confusing tabulations of a "balance of merchandise trade" or of "trade in goods and services." It is not always clear which is being cited. And the difference between services and non-trade financial payments is blurred.
Virtually all economists believe that trade can increase economic efficiency and benefit both nations trading, though not necessarily every person in each. Yet there always are pressures to restrict trade, some based on valid reasons, some merely to make one set of people richer at the expense of society as a whole.
Nations use three common tools to restrict trade: tariffs, quotas and regulations.
Tariffs, or taxes, on imports and exports are the most used. Those on imports are far more common than those on exports. The United States never uses taxes on exports because these are specifically banned in our Constitution. But other nations, particularly ones like Argentina, where a narrow set of big landowners can benefit from high world commodity prices at the disadvantage of consumers, tax exports sporadically. Rural discontent about such "retentions" on soy and wheat exports helped put that country's current president in office, but the election next month probably will return the faction that imposed the export taxes 16 years ago.
Tariffs are closest to excise taxes, such as those on alcohol, cigarettes and air travel. There are three approaches, specific, ad valorum and compound.
Specific tariffs are a stated sum of money per unit of some good, such as eight cents per pound of rope. These become horribly complicated because there are myriad products and many of these come in different grades. Coarse carpet wool from Argentina is worth much less than fine Merino wool from Spain. Applying the same tax per pound to each would proportionately raise the cost of the coarse wool more than the fine. Thus tariff schedules can motivate all sorts of schemes of fraudulently misstating the category of the item on a manifest so as to pay a lower amount per unit. Moreover, schedules become obsolete with inflation and fluctuations in world prices and exchange rates.
As a result, most tariffs are "ad valorum," a percentage of the declared value of the imported good. When President Donald Trump sets tariffs at 10 percent or 25 percent on goods from China, these are ad valorum. They solve the problems of complexity and vulnerability to inflation.
A compound tariff is just a combination of the two. The 2019 U.S. tariff schedule says "Other felt, not impregnated, coated, covered or laminated: Of wool or fine animal hair" must pay 49.5 cents per kilo plus 7.5 percent of value. That applies to all World Trade Organization member countries. Then there is a list of 18 nations, whose imports enter at zero because of free trade agreements such as NAFTA. Finally there is a much higher rate for non-WTO nations.
Quotas are caps on the number of units imported, whether automobiles or dozens of sweaters. These are illegal under trade treaties we have signed, so when imposed on Japanese autos in the 1980, they were styled as "voluntary export restraints" by a Japan that we had bludgeoned into agreement.
Non-tariff barriers are the misuse of regulation to restrict trade. These are often health and safety regulations, and any specific regulation being used as an illegal brake on imports is contentious. Europe at one time refused to import U.S. beef from animals implanted with a hormone to promote growth. The U.S. balked at hogs from Canada fed Chloramphenicol, an antibiotic banned here. The French once tried to stem a flood of Asian VCRs by requiring each lot imported be tested for electrical safety at a remote village in the Pyrenees.
The question of who "pays" for any of these trade barriers confounds public discourse and forces econ students to learn mind-numbing graphs. The raucous argument over Trump's most recent tariffs on China is a classic example of what logic profs call a "false dichotomy." The right answer includes both Chinese and Americans. Yes, owners of goods at the time of clearing customs write out checks to the Treasury. But that means no more than the fact that Menards or Walmart sends a check for sales tax charged to our Department of Revenue. Do they bear the sales tax? No, you do. It's right there on your sales receipt.
This is what economists call "tax incidence" — whose wealth is changed one way or another by a tax. This is complicated and varies greatly from product to product. But the simple answer is that some cost is borne by people and businesses in China and some by people and businesses in the United States.
One also reads estimates of how much tariffs will cost each person or household. This week headlines said that economists had calculated the costs of the current tariffs at $831 per person per year. Logicians call this a "fallacy of false precision." In uncertain times like now, facing unprecedented policy shifts, in any study economists much make myriad assumptions about how multiple factors interact. The study probably predicted a range from $200 to $1,500 with $831 the central guess. Other studies will find other ranges. All one can learn is that households will pay more, some perhaps substantial amounts, for consumer goods that are imported from China.
This also is subject to the erroneous assumption that everyone is near some average, like thinking that everyone dies at the tabulated life expectancy. The tariffs will cost some households $5,000, some $831, some $171 and some nothing at all, depending on what they consume. Some groups, say steelworkers and their bosses, will see increased disposable income. Others, say Jackson County soybean growers, may see tens of thousands decline in net income.
There also is much public ignorance of actual tariff levels before the trade war began. Trump's 25 percent across all goods is a level not seen since 1934. People think that factories moving to Mexico after NAFTA were due to the U.S. slashing high tariffs. The actual weighted average U.S. tariff on dutiable goods from prior to NAFTA was 2.9 percent. Going from 2.9 percent, which is about what is charged on imports from all WTO members, down to zero was of little importance. And the factors that matter would not necessarily change if NAFTA died and we followed the law and simply treated Mexico as we do everyone else in the WTO.
Similarly, Chinese tariffs on imports are not sky high as some claim. On non-agricultural products, the weighted average is 4.3 percent. U.S. tariffs on imports from China average 3.2 percent. Both figures are from 2017, prior to the war.
In all the hoopla about Brexit, one hears how vital it is for the United Kingdom to secure a free trade agreement with the United States immediately after leaving the European Union to make up for lost trade with the continent. This is silly. The average U.S. tariff on non-agricultural imports from the EU is 1.4 percent. This is for all nations, so the mix of U.S. imports from the British may be a bit different. But dropping from a few percent to zero is not going to affect much.

Women of the year throwback: 8 Canadians who rocked the '80s and '90s
Since 1979, Chatelaine has honoured many Women of the Year. To celebrate this year's list, we chose a few highlights from the archives.
By Katie Underwood Updated November 24, 2016
Since 1979, the year Chatelaine introduced its very first Woman of the Year (Diane Jones-Konihowski, a champion pentathlete), we've awarded the title to superstars spanning the arts, politics, business and beyond. Cultural heavyweight Margaret Atwood (1981), Kim Campbell, Canada's first female prime minister (1994) and emerging country star k.d. lang (1988) have all held the honour. Here, a few of our most memorable covers.
WOTY-Women
The woman: KD Lang
The year: 1988
The exuberant headline "Yippee-I-O KD!" introduced Chatelaine readers to the pride of Consort, Alta., then a country-style crooner with a "don't-mess-with-me tomboy alto" trying to break big in Nashville. Also in Lang's vocal repertoire, according to writer Jay Scott: growling "like a bulldog," yodelling "like a hillbilly on a Saturday night" and soaring "operatically like a diva." What range!

This wedding was all about Provence and south of France: In the middle of the Var, in a century old house with an view on the valley, mountains, under a huge tree with cicadas' songs.
Simple yet elegant wedding, Hanna and Erik did focus on their friend and close family, and it was lovely ! During the dinner, their friends and family all had kind and funny word about them, Swedish weddings always have speeches, and it all about sharing love and laughter. It's a great time together and always wonderful memories.
Thank you so much Hanna and Erik, for letting me be part of your amazing day !

Colwyn Bay's Victoria Pier 'could reopen by 2019' if ambitious £12m restoration plans are successful
Eighty turn up to hear Colwyn Victoria Pier Trust's proposals for a sports and educational hub as £9.1m Heritage Lottery Fund bid decision is awaited
David PowellCourt reporter
Colwyn Bay's Victoria Pier
Colwyn Bay's dilapidated Victoria Pier could be transformed by 2019 into a sport and educational hub if ambitious £12m restoration plans are successful, it was claimed last night.
Colwyn Victoria Pier Trust (CVPT) campaigner Jess Steele laid out a timetable for progress, which began with the submission of a £9.1m Heritage Lottery Fund bid on November 30, to Trust members in a meeting yesterday at Colwyn Bay's St Paul's Church.
She made a presentation and a Q&A session lasting almost two-hours about the Trust's vision for the Grade II listed, 750ft structure, built in 1900.
She revealed:
She is meeting Conwy Council this morning to discuss a way forward.
On January 29 she will address Conwy Councillors to ask them to reverse their Round One decision to demolish the pier in December 2013.
Heritage Lottery Fund experts will inspect the pier in the second half of February and announce whether they will release the £9.1m in April.
HLF would decide on a detailed Round Two bid in December 2016 with work possibly starting in September 2017 and completion by June 2019.
A legal wrangle between Conwy Council and Steve Hunt could scupper the redevelopment but if lottery money were forthcoming there would be a six week period for negotiations between parties.
Public meeting to discuss the proposed £8.5m Heritage Lottery funding for restoration of Grade ll Victoria Pier, Colwyn Bay held at St Paul's Church
Ms Steele suggested that Conwy Council in an earlier Lottery bid – when a £5m in principle grant was not taken up – had only asked for 29% of the cost of redevelopment leaving 71% to still be found from other sources.
But CVPT's application is for 74% of the overall cost, leaving only 26% of funds to be found from the Welsh Government, a community share issue, voluntary contributions and other sources.
Brimming with optimism and realism, Ms Steele sat on a panel of Bay of Colwyn Town Councillors and CVPT members, with their back to the altar, facing the 80 strong audience.
She outlined how she had already helped save Hastings pier in East Sussex and called Colwyn Bay's pier "absolutely beautiful but fairly tragic".
She told the audience it was one of only 31 surviving traditional, iron-legged piers in the UK and that Hastings had ditched its "stigma" and "self esteem problem" and become more "confident" since its pier revival.
Ms Steele pointed out that independent engineers had said the condition of Colwyn Bay's Victoria Pier cast iron columns is "no worse" than that of comparable piers.
She said if HLF agree to fund the pier redevelopment in April there would be 15 months of detailed work.
Based on health, learning and prosperity, she said the trust is proposing to have a £1.4m health, fitness and beauty centre to replace the "carbuncle" at the pier entrance.
The 1934 pavilion would be stripped back and restored as a £3.8m cafe-restaurant, workspaces and public art platform, potentially drawing on the Fun Palace ideas of Joan Littlewood.
But Ms Steele said the famous murals of renowned artists Eric Ravilious and Mary Adshead are "too far gone" to be salvaged but could be commemorated in a public art piece elsewhere.
The decking would have tracks for walking, running and cycling with franchises for selling smoothies and other products alongside.
Inside Colwyn Bay pier
An appreciative audience applauded the presentation of Ms Steele, who was flanked by the mayor of Colwyn Bay Val Smith, Cllr Don Porter and CPVT members Gavin Davies and Alan Shrimpton.
Gareth Thomas, former Labour MP Clwyd West, told Ms Steele: "I was most impressed by your realism and enthusiasm. It was one of the best presentations of its kind I have had the pleasure to hear."
Cllr Porter said: "It's crucial it's a focal point. If we can redevelop the pier we can redevelop the fortunes of the town. We need something for people to do while they are on the beach other than build sand castles."
And Cllr Neil Bastow drew applause when he called for the pier to be saved.
He said he had previously lived in towns with valued piers in Weston super Mare and Hastings and declared: "Destruction of the pier would be utterly ridiculous."
Supporter Hilary Hughes said a redeveloped pier was important. She said: "The pier is needed. Dozens of old people sit in their cars on the Promenade with nowhere to go."

A cofounder of a megachurch, Chaplain for the Detroit Lions, inspiring on stage and a leader of men. Everyone loved him and wanted to follow him, but I was left in his dust.
My heart felt bruised and cold like the chilling winds that skate over Lake Michigan in the dead of winter.
We were in a bad place in our marriage, and I didn't know how to find my way back home!
That was my on and off again reality until—before I knew it—ten years had passed. Then out of nowhere, Dave suddenly wanted to make a huge deal out of our tenth anniversary.
He took me out to a very nice restaurant. After we sat down the waiter began bringing roses to our table. Each rose was to signify a year of our marriage.
Dave began to pour out his heart about the ten years we had spent together.
I had to admit that he was being very sweet. He was like a little boy that night as he kept waiting for the next thing he had planned to happen—I could tell he even planned what he was going to say when each rose arrived.
This was a sweet, and grand gesture and I knew he was trying to make up for lost time, but it felt too late.
On the way home he surprised me again by stopping to go "parking"…if you know what I mean.
I had made it through the dinner and his planned parade of roses, but the idea of being intimate, passionate, or spontaneous with him in a middle school parking lot was just more than I could handle at that moment. He had "that" look and I tried to ignore it, but eventually he made his move towards my direction.
In my head, I was thinking, Ugh, I can't even… I cannot go there.
He seemed baffled by my lack of affection, and then he asked why.
There. I finally said it. I wish the words would have brought me to tears, but they didn't.
The look on his face reflected utter shock. He had just planned this romantic evening and instead of all he had dreamed of for the night, he was coming face to face with the reality that all I had dreamed of for my life was in ruins. I knew that my words killed him, but I was at a point where I didn't even know what else to say.
I was in this alone and now, and I knew that since I had finally told him, it would be the beginning of the end for our marriage.
Do something? What was he talking about? Was he about to go somewhere?
Dave was going somewhere, alright… just not anywhere I expected.
A moment that should have been the beginning of the end for our marriage was instead the beginning of a new beginning.
Instead of yelling at me like many of our other conflicts, Dave began to pray.
He somehow turned around in our Honda and put his knees on the floorboard—with the steering wheel in his back.
Then he began to pray out loud, repenting of being too busy and being lukewarm—begging God to help him become the husband and father he was supposed to be, and not the hypocrite he had become.
His knees on the floorboard left me floored as well. I just sat there looking at him, barely able to believe what I was seeing. It was there that I realized my heart had become a brick inside of me—but in that moment, it began to break.
As he prayed, I could suddenly hear God gently whispering to my soul, Ann Wilson, you have been trying to get your happiness from your husband, and I never made him for that. I never equipped him to fill all your needs. I am the only One who can meet all your needs.
The message was undeniably clear. I hadn't been willing to even kiss my husband of ten years, but when God's words rang out in my heart, I became willing to do something even crazier: I turned around and got on my knees beside Dave.
The simple secret begins with realizing that a purely horizontal marriage just doesn't work.
As I reminisce some twenty-eight years later, I can tell you that our moment of repentance changed everything… and I mean everything.
The secret we had been missing for the first decade of our marriage began to become our new daily reality—and I now pray that this will begin a new reality for you, as well.
There is no life—no power in ourselves alone.
Without the vertical—without God in first place—we search for life where there is no life. We realized that as wonderful as we both were as people, we made pretty lousy gods.
It took a vertical miracle to change our horizontal mess.
That night was the beginning of God crashing in on the loneliness of my icy heart! If He has the power to resurrect Jesus from the dead, He has the power to breathe new life into a dead marriage.
It is found simply, yet profoundly, in Jesus.
Don't waste another day like I did trying to find happiness in the horizontal.
Take the first crucial step…Go vertical!
Dave and Ann Wilson are co-founders of Kensington Community Church, a national, multi-campus church that hosts more than 14,000 attendees every weekend. For the past twenty-five years, they have been featured speakers at Family Life's Weekend to Remember®, and have also hosted their own marriage conferences across the country. They live in the Detroit area, where Dave served as the Detroit Lions Chaplain for thirty-three years.
For anyone who is married, preparing for marriage, or desperate to save a relationship teetering on the edge of disaster, Dave and Ann offer hope and strategies that really work in their new book, Vertical Marriage. Through their unique perspectives, they share an intimate, sometimes hilarious and at times deeply poignant narrative of one couple's journey to discovering the joy and power of a vertical marriage.
Happiness isn't apart from our holiness; it's a part of it. Happiness isn't the opposite of joy; it's hemmed in.
