Home Law and Justice Throwaway People
Throwaway People
When should juvenile offenders be locked up forever?
by Garrett Epps
"You're making a 14-year-old throwaway person."
Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg's phrase fell into the Supreme Court chamber with an ominous clang, like the sound of metal doors slamming.
Not surprisingly, Kent Holt, an assistant Arkansas attorney general, tried to mute the clang. Speaking of Evan Miller, who committed murder at 14 and is now challenging his sentence of life without parole, Holt said, "I'd respectfully disagree that he's a throwaway person."
"What hope does he have?" Justice Sonia Sotomayor asked.
Well, Holt responded, he could ask for a commutation of his life-without-parole sentence. He cited a 1979 Arkansas case stating that 30 such requests had been granted in the five years before.
This seemed like a slim hope when Bryan Stevenson, Jackson's lawyer, rose to rebut Holt. Commutations had become rare in the last 30 years, he said: Since 2007, there has been only one.
The gates of Dante's Hell carried the inscription, "Abandon all hope, ye who enter." For thousands of American prisoners, sentenced to life in prison without parole, the doors of the correctional system bear the same invisible legend. Many of them, of course, are lucky to have escaped so lightly-for those who commit aggravated murder, life without parole, or LWOP, is the common alternative to the death penalty.
But somewhere around 80 of these hopeless cases are there because of crimes they committed at the age of 13 or 14. The question in the two cases-Jackson v. Hobbs and Miller v. Alabama-argued Tuesday is: When, under the Constitution, can society just give up on a child and banish him or her for life? When does such a sentence violate the Eighth Amendment's ban on "cruel and unusual punishments"? Is there something qualitatively different about such a sentence when the offender is not even grown-and when, under the Supreme Court's precedent in Roper v. Simmons, he or she could not constitutionally be put to death?
Roper, decided in 2005, held that a prisoner cannot be executed for a crime committed before the age of 18. More recently, in the 2010 case of Graham v. Florida, the Court held that juveniles cannot be sentenced to LWOP for crimes other than homicide. Both majority opinions, written by Justice Anthony Kennedy, reasoned that these sentences are "disproportionate" to the juvenile offender's guilt. The reasons are three. First, the offenders lack the maturity to foresee the consequences of their actions. Second (quoting Roper), "juveniles are more vulnerable or susceptible to negative influences and outside pressures, including peer pressure." And third, "the character of a juvenile is not as well formed as that of an adult," meaning that deeming a young person incapable of reform makes little sense.
Those three statements could also be made of the juveniles in Jackson and Miller. The difference with Roper is that they're not facing execution; the difference with Graham is that their victims died. And the difficulty of drawing a new Eighth Amendment line is illustrated by the differences between the two facts: Kutrell Jackson, at the age of 14 years and three weeks, was with two older friends when they decided to rob a liquor store. One of the other boys produced a sawed-off shotgun; the older two went into the store. Jackson remained outside, then came in as they were confronting the clerk, 28-year-old Laurie Troup. One of the older boys fired; the three ran out. Troup's body was later found by her mother and her 11-year-old son. Jackson didn't fire and was apparently unaware of the gun until moments before the crime. He was prosecuted for "felony murder," a charge to which his own lack of intent to kill is more or less irrelevant, because he took part in the robbery.
By contrast, Evan Miller and a friend tried to rob a trailer-park neighbor, 52-year-old Cole Cannon, after he fell asleep during an evening in which he and the boys shared liquor, prescription meds, and marijuana. When Cannon awoke, Miller knocked him unconscious with a baseball bat, saying (according to his co-defendant), "I am God, I've come to take your life." Then the boys set fire to Cannon's trailer; he died, choking in the blaze.
Horrible acts, though one seems more clearly culpable than the other. But both were performed at 14, an age at which (according to an amicus brief filed by the American Psychological Association, the American Psychiatric Association, and the National Association of Social Workers) "adolescent brains are not fully mature in regions and systems related to higher-order executive functions such as impulse control, planning ahead, and risk avoidance." Briefs for both of the boys-who were jointly represented by Bryan Stevenson, executive director of the Equal Justice Initiative and Professor of Clinical Law at New York University Law School-cite copious recent research using brain-imaging techniques to document the proposition that, scientifically, "children are not simply miniature adults."
The Court is on record agreeing, but the two previous cases both centered around death. It's one thing to say that a state can't kill a juvenile killer (Simmons explicitly noted that LWOP was a suitable punishment for murder); it's another to say that it can't impose LWOP on a child in a case where nobody was killed. It is yet another thing to say that it can't impose it on a child who actually has killed and has done so under circumstances that might earn execution if the child were over 18.
Much of the questioning from the bench Tuesday pushed on this issue. "If you could write the opinion for us, what would you hold?" Justice Samuel Alito asked Stevenson. Stevenson hedged. LWOP for 14-year-olds would be out, he said. Oh, Alito asked, then "for anybody over 15, it would be permissible."
"No, I would also hold, Your Honor, that a mandatory sentence for that cohort would also be in violation of this Eighth Amendment principle," Stevenson said.
This was a dangerous path, especially when Stevenson's briefs had focused so intently on the difference between a 14-year-old and a 17-year-old in brain development. Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg urged him to defer the question of older children "for another day."
"I'm sorry," Justice Sotomayor asked. "I thought you just said a second earlier that you had a bifurcated rule: No life without parole whatsoever for 15 and under, and no mandatory life for 16-15 and over."
"The easier rule to write would be that there is a categorical ban on all life without parole sentences for all children up to the age of 18," Stevenson said.
Later, Justice Sotomayor pushed him to adopt a fallback position-one barring LWOP for juveniles in cases where the facts show no specific intent to kill. That would help Jackson but not Miller. Stevenson, representing both, was reluctant to throw one client overboard. "Juvenile intent is a much more complex issue," he said. Sotomayor mused that the Court might come up with a rule in which (1) LWOP is barred for those under 15; (2) LWOP for older juveniles could be imposed on a case-by-case basis for those over 15 where there was an intent to kill.
That would be an improvement, Stevenson admitted, because today "children are being convicted of homicide offenses where there is no intent to kill."
(None of the argument concerned a rule that such young offenders could not be given long sentences, extending far past their 21st birthdays; the only question was whether the sentences could offer no hope at all for parole someday.)
The question of how many children are facing LWOP is a charged one. Neither side challenged Stevenson's figure that "79 plus or minus one or two" offenders have been sentenced to LWOP for crimes committed at 13 or 14. That number is important because part of Eighth Amendment analysis is whether the practice is rare. Stevenson argued that the small number of sentences proved it is; the state defendants argued that it's a pretty good chunk of the small number of young teens convicted for homicide. The only available figures show that it is about 1 percent of the number of juvenile homicide arrests. Justice Alito pointed out that that is a "broader category." Stevenson had to agree.
Justice Scalia, as might be predicted, was troubled by the idea of a rule "just plucked ... out of the air." Justice Alito challenged Stevenson's numbers. Chief Justice Roberts brought the focus back to the fate of Laurie Troup. Given what we know of Justice Thomas, that suggests four votes against any new rule. Justices Ginsburg, Breyer, Sotomayor, and Kagan seemed to be groping for a rule that extended Simmons and Graham without stretching them too far.
That leaves Justice Kennedy, the author of both of the earlier opinions. His questions mostly focused on the issue of discretion in sentencing. (In many states, a juvenile convicted of capital murder must be sentenced to LWOP.) He also asked John Neiman, the solicitor general of Alabama, why the state believed that LWOP would deter juveniles from killing.
"We think that deterrence is in the mix," Neiman responded, "but it's certainly not the primary goal that these statutes serve." The "primary goal," he said, was punishment-"bringing society's retributive force to bear on those who commit the worst sort of crimes."
"Retribution, of course, is related to personal culpability," Kennedy answered. " ... that loops back into the minor problem."
"That's exactly right, Justice Kennedy," Neiman said. "But I think one point on which Mr. Miller and the State fundamentally disagree here is ... what we can conclude about a juvenile's culpability when the juvenile has committed aggravated murder."
The answer to that question seems to lie with the Sphinx of Sacramento and with it, the fate of "79 plus or minus one or two" children on whom the doors of hope have slammed forever.

Seven men are killed in a garage ordered by Al Capone, who is conveniently away in Miami at the time. Planned by McGurn and members of the Circus gang, imported hired killers are sent in the Moran warehouse to kill George "Bugs"Moran. Moran is a rival and thorn in Capone's side. Moran and his gang have posession of the lucreative Northside booze business and other rackets. The crews awaiting at the Circus Cafe are called in from this rooming house tipster to begin their fake raid.Once they arrive there is no turning back. Moran is nowhere to be found.The hired killers sent in to kill Moran mess up the hit by thinking that Moran is in the garage. One of the lookouts across the street had mistakingly taken one of the men entering the garage as Moran. Being late, Moran wasn't there and he had spotted the fake police cars on his way to the garage and mistook it for a raid. He doubled back and disappeared with his henchman. Inside the garage, the killers lined up the Moran men consisting of 5 Moran gangsters, one mechanic and an optometrist who gets a kick out of hanging around gangsters. A dog tied to a truck howls madly. The killers level their weapons consisting of two thompsons, one with a 20 round clip, and one with a 50 round drum. The killers know that the drum has a tendancy to jam on occaision, so just in case they make sure the 20 round clip is used to kill flawlessly. Two shotguns are also part of the arsenal.

Today we're heading just north of Lehigh Valley, to the "Niagra of Pennsylvania", otherwise known as Bushkill Falls.
Bushkill Falls features a network of hiking trails that wind through the woods and past eight spectacular waterfalls.These trails are rugged (hiking boots recommended) and require a good deal of climbing.
This area is more commercialized than some of the other local trails and tends to get crowded on weekends and holidays. Plus, Bushkill Falls charges an admission fee ($10/adult; $6/child). However, when you're standing at the base of Bridal Veil Falls, you'll agree that the price is totally worth it.

Q: html link, href assignment from a Javascript function I have a simple Javascript function which builds a Url that I want to provide a link to.
However, I can't seem to get the anchor tag working with it.  How do I assign the href of the anchor tag the results of the Javascript function?
Neither one of these work correctly:
Click here
Click here

This is what I want to accomplish.

A:
Click here

-- update --
If I wanted to incorporate user278064s' comments, i would change the above into:

    Click here

A: None of the above solutions worked for me. A good way would be to create a new link in the function.

function fetchURL() {
  var title = "Download";
  var URL = title.link("https://www.google.com");
  document.getElementById("dynamicButton").innerHTML = URL;

}

    //empty

A: Click here

Click Here

A: Give the link an id:
Click Here

Later on, set its href from JavaScript:
document.getElementById('specialLink').href = getUrl();

(You might want to include a placeholder href in the link which people with JavaScript disabled will see.)

A: function getUrl(that) {
   return "www.whateveryouwant.com";
}

// Point the a.href attribute at your url.
var a = document.getElementsByTagName('a')[0];
a.href = getUrl();

UPDATE
I assume that you want to use the getUrl() method to set the href attribute, because probably the pointed url is not static (so it could change at any moment e point to the getUrl() returned url.)
Anyway, you could assign the href attribute, when i.e. the user click on the link, in this way.
function changeHref(aElem) {
   aElem.href = getUrl();
}

Following the complete code:
click me!

One other thing. You should avoid the use of javascript: pseudo-protocol.
This fragment will explain you why:

A pseudo-protocol is a nonstandard take on this idea.
  The javascript: pseudo-protocol is supposed to be used to invoke JavaScript from within a link.
  Here's how the javascript: pseudo-protocol would be used to call the popUp function:

Example

This will work just fine in browsers that understand the javascript: pseudo-protocol. Older browsers, however, will attempt to follow the link and fail. Even in browsers that understand the pseudoprotocol,
  the link becomes useless if JavaScript has been disabled.
  In short, using the javascript: pseudo-protocol is usually a very bad way of referencing JavaScript
  from within your markup.

An innovative Freestanding Mini Soccer, professional aluminium goal post that is light and easy to move around. Ideal when pitches need to be set up in different locations or stored away after the game. The goals have a very simple anchor for use on grass or hard surfaces. Much better than the goals with heavy rear ground back bars or heavy rollers that are difficult to manoeuvre, especially on grass pitches.
Strong, fully welded side frame are supplied (not mitered corners that needs assembling with nuts/bolts) In contrast these goals are fast to assemble , simply attach crossbar and back bar. It will only take a fraction of the time it takes to assemble mitered cornered version goals.
Multi-surface anchors included provide quick safe anchorage of aluminium goals without the need to carry very heavy weights.
Recessed twist & lock net fixings are supplied to neatly fit nets to rear of posts and Ground frame net fixings attach nets to ground back frames.
Aluminium goals are easy to move & store after the game or can be left in situ. Back stanchions are made in rustproof aluminum and not heavy steel. If goals need regular transportation we offer goal dollies and wheel systems available. see the YouTube video click here of the wheels and click here for the goal dollies.
Unlike other integral weighted football goals with lever or rear wheel and roller systems that can entangle nets, our design can be easily re positioned on wet or muddy grass pitches and will not damage or rut the playing surface. Try one of these goals against any other free standing goal and you will see how much lighter, stronger and easier they are to use.
With this Freestanding Mini Soccer goals, the price includes net anchors and all fixings required and is per single goal. Without doubt the best freestanding goal post available.
The frame is fully welded and not held together on the corners with nuts& bolts and they have the benefit of aluminum net supports not heavy steel tubes bolted on that need constant re- tightening.
A Unique counter balance system is available if goals are to be used on artificial surfaces ( see images above).
The best on line price for this Mini soccer Goal is currently at www.soccertackle.com.

Letter to the Editor: SAAC Stoles
In the most recent edition of The Meredith Herald, there was an article that discussed the potential of student athletes receiving special recognition at graduation in the form of stoles. Both of the interviews included in that article were in favor of the measure, so I thought that in the interest of fairness, The Herald might be interested in publishing an additional article showcasing the views of a student with a very different opinion.
I personally completed the survey that was sent out to students and was disappointed to see both my response and the responses of other students who may have taken issue with the proposal glossed over, both in the recent article and by the college itself. Response bias is always going to be an issue in surveys like this, and I doubt that I'm wrong in saying that the views of the majority of people who voluntarily chose to fill out the survey do not necessarily reflect the views of the majority of students.
First, I would like to clarify that I do not believe that stepping away from the precedent of recognizing only honor society memberships and academic achievements at graduation would be a bad thing. Rather, I am opposed to the exception being made only for student athletes. In one of the article interviews, a reference is made to the "tears, blood, sweat, and passion" given by the athletes to the athletic program as one reason they should be given special recognition. To the student who argued that, I would ask: Do you genuinely think that student athletes are the only people who dedicate their time and effort to this institution? Students who participate in the theatre, dance and music programs regularly spend multiple hours a day in rehearsals. Students involved in visual art spend hours in the studio perfecting their projects. Students involved in student government, campus publications and student advising (just to name a few) contribute greatly to their projects outside of class. None of these groups get special recognition at graduation, so why should student athletes?
It's also worth noting that student athletes already get pins to wear at the graduation ceremony to distinguish themselves. The argument being made is that this, which is more than any of the groups I've listed above get, is somehow still not enough.
I strongly oppose the measure to give student athletes special recognition at graduation, not because I do not acknowledge their contributions, but because I believe it would be an undeniable sign of bias from the College to recognize them while ignoring a multitude of other students who put in equal amounts of time and effort for this school.

CHAPTER SIX HUNDRED and SEVENTY-THREE
Wednesday morning —7:02 a.m.
Jeraine flipped Tanesha under him and kissed her hard. She laughed.
"You taste like. . ." Jeraine kissed her again. "Tea and those breakfast cookies and. . ."
"You?" Tanesha asked.
Tanesha leaned her head up to kiss him. They kissed and rolled over again. For a while, they were caught up in each other in the way they had been since they were children. Breathless, they fell against the bed.
"You're off all day?" Jeraine asked.
"All day," Tanesha said. She fluffed her pillow and leaned back. "Do you have time?"
"I'm all yours," Jeraine said. "Until. . . four? I think. There's a show tonight."
"Should we take Jabari out of school and. . ." Tanesha said and laughed.
"He would never want to be out of school," they said in unison and laughed.
"We could go shopping," Jeraine said.
"Ugh," Tanesha said. "My feet hurt from work."
"Spa day?" Jeraine asked.
"Eh," Tanesha said, rolling over.
"Jeraine as your slave day?" Jeraine asked.
"That's my every day," Tanesha said.
They laughed. Jeraine kissed her ear.
"I'd love to spend the day with you," Tanesha said. "Hang out here. Talk. Just see how you. . ."
Tanesha groaned when her phone rang. A second later, Jeraine's phone rang. Tanesha reached her phone first.
"Hello?" Tanesha asked at nearly the same time that Jeraine said, "Hello."
"Tanesha Smith?" a woman's voice asked. "I need to speak with you and Jeraine Wilson."
"Who is this?" Tanesha asked.
"It's Atlanta Child Protection Services," the woman said. "We haven't met. My name is Hazel Johnson. I'm a child support service manager. I am responsible for the care and well-being of children in Atlanta."
"Uh, okay, Jeraine's right here," Tanesha said. She nodded to Jeraine. "He's hanging up. I'm going to put you on speaker."
"Oh, good," she said. "Thanks."
Jeraine got out of bed and pulled on a T-shirt and sweatpants. Tanesha reached for her bathrobe.
"I'm here," Jeraine said, pulling on his socks.
"Mr. Wilson, I'm not sure how to say this to you," Hazel said.
"Ms. Johnson, you can tell us anything," Tanesha said.
"How can we help?" Jeraine asked.
Hazel sighed.
"You can call me 'Hazel,'" she said. "And, I'm glad you want to help, but let me tell you what's going on first."
"What's going on?" Tanesha asked.
"You're aware, well, of course you are," Hazel said.
Hazel didn't say anything for a long moment.
"Ma'am?" Jeraine asked.
"Sorry, I just realized that I was talking to Miss T and Jeraine," Hazel said.
"It's freaky," Jeraine said. "For us, too."
"We understand," Tanesha said. "Take your time."
"No, I. . . Well, I'm just going to tell you," Hazel said. "You remember, Annette?"
"Jabari's birth mother?" Jeraine asked. "Yes, I remember my son's birth mother."
"Yes, sorry — of course, you do," Hazel said.
"Jer, why don't you make us some tea?" Tanesha asked.
Looking relieved, Jeraine nodded and left the room.

And the winner is… A look at the Spiel des Jahres Award.
Whether you are new to gaming or have been gaming for ages, you've probably heard of the Spiel des Jahres Award. It is awarded to games of "outstanding quality" that promote gaming as a valuable family pastime and appeal to a large audience. There are two other awards, the Kinderpsiel (for children's games) and the Kennerspiel (for more "experienced" gamers). Winning any of these awards comes with its own distinction, with the Spiel des Jahres being the most prestigious. Given that the 2015 winners were just announced, I thought it might be interesting to take a closer look at these awards, the games that won them, and the designers who designed them.
What is the point of each award?
Spiel des Jahres – " to promote games as a cultural asset to encourage gaming amongst family and friends and to provide an aid to selecting the best games from a wide range of products on offer"
Kinderspiel – "to give guidance to families with children as well as educators and to draw attention to excellent games for children"; The focus of this award is on games intended for children up to the age of 8, but it also includes games that can be played with other family members.
Kennerspiel – "to give guidance to those people who have already been playing games for a longer time and are experienced in learning new rules"
How are games selected?
Spiel des Jahres – The jury considers all new family and adult games published in Germany in the current and previous calendar year. There are two phases: an information gathering phase and an initial evaluation phase. After both phases are finished, the jury meets to create a list of candidates. From this list, three nominees are selected from the main award.
Kinderspiel – Identical to the Spiel des Jahres process, only focusing on children's games.
Kennerspiel – Identical to the Spiel des Jahres procedure.
Who determines the winners?
Spiel des Jahres – The jury consists solely of journalists who specialize in game reviews, have worked for extended periods for newspapers, magazines, and broadcast organizations.
Kinderspiel – Three members of the Spiel des Jahres association and three-member advisory committee. Advisors are journalists specializing in children's media and are appointed for one year.
Kennerspiel – The same jury as the Spiel des Jahres.
In all cases, no one involved in any way with the publishing or sales of games is allowed a seat in the jury.
How are games judged?
For all three awards, the games are judged on the following aspects:
game idea (originality, playability, play value)
rules design (structure, clarity, understandability)
game materials (features, workmanship)
layout and presentation (box, game board, rules)
What does the award do?
Well, it's basically bragging rights. There is no monetary value attached directly to the award. However, winning the awards will likely increase the sales of a game significantly. I've heard that winning the Spiel des Jahres can boost sales from 3000 to 300,000.
Just in this small sample size, you can see that some names repeat. Because my brain likes to look for patterns, I decided to look at awards by designer.
Spiel des Jahres by Designers
A majority of the designers have only won one Spiel des Jahres Award. To see a complete list of Spiel des Jahres winners, you can click here.
The designer who makes the most appearances on the list is Wolfgang Kramer with a total of 5. However, he shows up as both solo and with different designers. Klaus Teuber has 4 appearances as just himself.
Kinderspiel by Designers
As you can see, the Kinderspiel distribution is fairly even across the board. You can see a complete list of winners here.
Kennerspiel by Designers
Since it's start in the 2011, the Kennerspiel has not had any duplicate winners. You can see a full list of winners here.
Designers Across Awards
There are a few designers who have won awards across genres.
Wolfgang Kramer has won multiple Spiel des Jahres Awards and one Kinderspiel Award.
Steffen Bogen has won one Spiel des Jahres Award and one Kinderspiel Award.
Reiner Knizia has won one Spiel des Jahres Award and one Kinderspiel Award.
Alex Randolph has won one Spiel des Jahres Award and one Kinderspiel Award.
Inka & Markus Brand have won one Kidnerspiel Award and one Kennerspiel Award.
Antoine Bauza has won one Spiel des Jahres Award and one Kennerspiel Award.
Winners by Gender*
* These numbers were probably not pulled in the most scientific of ways. To get them, I looked at the names of the winners and marked them as either male or female. If a person won more than once, I did not count them additional times.
A quick note about numbers. Numbers can say whatever you want them to say. A quick glance at these charts, and it's obvious there are less women who have won an award than men who have. However, as I don't have this information easily available to me, I can't determine the amount of women designers to women designers who win ratio. What I mean to say is, if 30 women are designing and 12 of them have won awards, that's pretty good. I have no way to track that though. Hopefully, if nothing else, you to reflected a moment on the role of women in the gaming industry.
You tell me. Some people swear by awards. Some people couldn't care less. I'm somewhere in between. Because I only had a fleeting understanding of what the awards meant (Game of the Year, Best Kid's Game of the Year, Some Other Game of the Year), I thought it would be interesting to provide a bit more background and random bits of information about the Spiel des Jahres Award and its siblings, the Kinderspiel and the Kennerspiel.
I can't even begin to imagine having to vet all the games that come out in a year. I'd like to play as many as I can, sure. But to have to come up with a "best of" for an entire industry? No thanks. I'll leave it to the professionals and continue to play whatever I want anyway.
If you happened to check out the lists of previous winners, what do you think about them? Do you tend to agree with the awards or not? What about this year's winners?

Q: flutter - send data to OneDrive I want to use OneDrive as a cloud storage to which my app should send data automatically. With below code (slightly modified example from https://pub.dev/packages/flutter_onedrive), the connection can be established but I have two questions:

*

*how to do the connection automatically, i. e. transparent to the current user? As it is now, I have to manually log in and complete 2FA every time the app is started. Is there an access token or something similar that can be used?

*what is the OneDrive directory structure? I have a file 'test.txt' in what appears to be the root folder, but nothing is downloaded.

Here's the code I've used:
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter_onedrive/flutter_onedrive.dart';

final onedrive = OneDrive(
    redirectURL: "your redirectURL",
    clientID: "your clientID");

void main() => runApp(const MyApp());

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  const MyApp({super.key});

  static const String _title = 'Onedrive interaction';

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return const MaterialApp(
      title: _title,
      home: Center(child: MyStatefulWidget(),
      )
    );
  }
}

class MyStatefulWidget extends StatefulWidget {
  const MyStatefulWidget({super.key});

  @override
  State<MyStatefulWidget> createState() => _MyStatefulWidgetState();
}

class _MyStatefulWidgetState extends State<MyStatefulWidget> {

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return buildConnectButton(context);
  }
}

FutureBuilder buildConnectButton(BuildContext context) {
  return FutureBuilder(
    future: onedrive.isConnected(),
    builder: (BuildContext context, AsyncSnapshot<dynamic> snapshot) {
      if (!snapshot.hasData) {
        print('no data');
        return const Center(child: CircularProgressIndicator());
      }

      if (snapshot.data ?? false) {
        // Has connected
        print('connected');
        return const Text("Connected");

      } else {
        // Hasn't connected
        return ElevatedButton(
          child: const Text("Connect"),
          onPressed: () async {
            final success = await onedrive.connect(context);
            if (success) {
              print('accessing data');
              // Download files
              final txtBytes = await onedrive.pull("/test.txt");
              // Upload files
              print(txtBytes);
              await onedrive.push(txtBytes!, "/test2.txt");
            }
          },
        );
      }
    },
  );
}

The whole interaction with OneDrive is pretty overwhelming and there are numerous options to set. Ideally, my app would be able to send data only to a specific folder without having to sign in every time.

When it comes to men's fashion, the options are endless and making a choice is pretty difficult. A single factor can make or break your entire look and personality. From stylish footwear to buying high end men's clothing consignment, here are some quick tips to make you a fashion inspiration for your friends and colleagues.
1. The Right Fit – The most significant change you can bring to your style is to guarantee proper fitting. Most folks wear garments that are too loose or too fit. Ensure all that you wear is practically embracing the state of your body – without being awkward. Awful fit is a pandemic. We call it "Terrible Fit Disease"!
2. Simple Is Great – You need a closet that looks awesome on you, however, need not to try too hard. Try not to wear more than three bits of clothes or more than three colors at one go. Try not to dress like a hero unless you're in a band. In case you need to be conspicuous, a less complex, however, in vogue look would be donning a dark striped mens designer dress shirts with a white coat, a dull combine of pants, a dressy belt, and your favorite dress shoes. You could likewise include a watch or a straightforward frill like an intriguing neckband, yet nothing more.
3. A New Way of Easygoing – Easygoing doesn't need to be exhausting. Mess around with button up shirts or take some motivation from the individuals who approach easy going a bit in an unexpected way.
4. Accessories Matter – Some sweaters are lean and others are huge and thick. The primary dependable guideline is that your best and base parts need to coordinate. Don't have the budget yet want branded attires in your closet? Just shop on C-Suite Attire's men's clothing consignment store to get designer outfits at affordable price.
5. Don't Shop Alone– Most of the time, it's difficult to believe the business people since they ordinarily work for commission. Shop with a companion who will give you their legitimate assessment. Additionally, read about shopping on a financial plan.
6. Get a Good Pair of Shoes – If it's one thing that ladies will see first in you, it's definitely your shoes. Particularly how spotless and sharp they look. It's anything but difficult to wash and press whatever is left of your garments to keep them looking new, however, most folks ignore their shoes. Demonstrate that you're a man of taste by getting an extraordinary match of shoes and keeping them in immaculate condition.
7. Just Don't Be A Nerd for Brand Names – You don't have to be a sucker in case of brands. Before you choose to buy a thing, inquire as to whether you are getting it basically as a result of the brand name or on the grounds that you want the quality and style. You don't have to spend big bucks on a look when you can simply shop from high end consignment stores that sell mens clothing online.

Prophecy Announces Ulaan Ovoo Mine Start and Coal Sales in Mongolia
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / March 18, 2019 / Prophecy Development Corp. ("Prophecy" or the "Company") (TSX:PCY, OTCQX:PRPCF, Frankfurt:1P2N) announces Mongolian Ulaan Ovoo Mine start up in March and approximately 21,000 tonnes of coal production and sales. Multiple local and international consumers have expressed interest to buy Ulaan Ovoo coal; Prophecy is pleased with the rate of progress and plans to report quarterly sales and operational update.
Pictures and video are available at www.prophecydev.com.
With nameplate production capacity of 2 million tonnes per year, Ulaan Ovoo is a fully-permitted large coal field featuring a single, massive coal seam of 40 to 80 metre thickness outcropping at surface with a low strip ratio carrying minimal technical risk.
As reported in the Company news release dated October 16, 2018, that the Company executed a lease agreement (the "Lease") with an arms-length private Mongolian company (the "Lessee") whereby the Lessee performs mining operations at Prophecy's Ulaan Ovoo coal mine, and will pay Prophecy $2 (the "Production Royalty") for every tonne of coal shipped from the Ulaan Ovoo site premises. The Lessee is responsible for all capital and operating expenses, government taxes and royalties related to Ulaan Ovoo operation.
Since the signing of the Lease, the Lessee has spent approximately $700,000 on supplies, housing and crew and restarted Ulaan Ovoo with its own equipment. Lessee plans to start double shifts is April to meet demand.
About Ulaan Ovoo:
Ulaan Ovoo is located in northern Mongolia, 17km from the Zeltura border to Russia by dirt road, and 120km by road from Mongolia's Sukhbaatar railway station (which connects to the Trans-Siberian railway network). Ulaan Ovoo produced over 500,000 tonnes of coal from 2012 to 2014 which was sold to 28 separate Russian and Mongolian customers such as Erdenet Copper Mining Corporation, UB Railway, and Khutul Cement before it was put on standby in 2014.
The benchmark Newcastle thermal coal price has rebounded from a 2014 low of $61 per tonne to a current price of $98 per tonne, which are levels not seen since 2011.
Ulaan Ovoo features an average strip ratio of 1.8 BCM waste/tonne of coal. The coal mined yielded 5,000 kcal/kg GCV, less than 1% sulphur and low ash (8 to 11%) which is well-suited for power plants, cement plants and heat boiler applications. Wardrop Engineering (Tetra Tech) estimated 174 Mt of measured and 34 Mt of indicated coal resources in an NI 43-101 prefeasibility study in 2010.
The technical contents of this news release have been prepared under the supervision of Danniel Oosterman, VP, Exploration. Mr. Oosterman is not independent of the Company in that he is employed as a consultant to the Company and most of his income is derived from the Company. Mr. Oosterman is a Qualified Person as defined in NI 43-101.
Prophecy is developing the Gibellini project – the only large-scale, open-pit, heap-leach vanadium project of its kind in North America. Located in Nevada, Gibellini is currently undergoing EPCM and Permit preparation. Prophecy also has mining projects in Mongolia and Bolivia.

These factors should be considered carefully, and readers should not place undue reliance on Prophecy's forward-looking statements. Prophecy believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements contained in this news release and the documents incorporated by reference herein are reasonable, but no assurance can be given that these expectations will prove to be correct.

Resort Dumps White Nationalist Conference In Wake Of C'Ville Attack
By Allegra Kirkland
August 16, 2017 12:01 p.m.
LATE UPDATE Aug. 17, 2017, 9:24 a.m.: VDare said in a statement that it had received a refunded deposit and check for "very significant damages" from Cheyenne Mountain Resort following the cancellation of its 2018 conference. Praising the "professionalism and courtesy" of the staff, founder Peter Brimelow called the cancellation proof of the power of the "Totalitarian Left" to "suppress a debate on immigration policy."
Original story below
A resort in Colorado Springs, Colorado has cancelled plans to host white nationalist site Virginia Dare's 2018 public conference.
"Cheyenne Mountain Resort will not be hosting the VDARE Foundation in April of next year," resort spokeswoman Guadalupe Hirt said Wednesday in a statement to TPM. "We remain committed to respecting the privacy of guests at the resort."
Virginia Dare, or VDare, had booked the luxury resort for a weekend of discussion about "patriotic immigration reform and American national identity" in April 2018, as Media Matters first reported earlier this month. The Southern Poverty Law Center labels VDare an "anti-immigrant hate site."
Asked initially about its decision to host a group with direct ties to some of the country's most prominent white nationalists, the resort told Media Matters that it would not comment on the "groups or individuals that hold meetings at the resort."
TPM has reached out to VDare founder Peter Brimelow and his wife, Lydia, for comment. The link to the conference page on VDare's website now informs visitors that the event was cancelled and that registered attendees would receive refunds.
That notice has replaced an invitation for the $225-per-person, three-day event, in which the group promised attendees access to the resort's "naturally breathtaking landscape and exceptional hospitality," as well as the opportunity to hear from a number of far-right luminaries, including Brimelow himself.
TPM screenshot of the invitation as it appeared last week.
Brimelow, the author of "Alien Nation: Common Sense About America's Immigration Disaster," adamantly denies that his site has a white nationalist bent. But white nationalist writers like American Renaissance's Jared Taylor frequently contribute articles to the site. At a 2016 American Renaissance conference that a TPM reporter attended, Brimelow said that the "next time there are illegal alien demonstrations," the federal government should "round them up and ship them out."
Other planned speakers at the Dare event included former U.S. Rep. Tom Tancredo (R-CO), a Breitbart columnist who has said that "political correctness protests Muslim rape culture" and that Barack Obama was only elected President because the U.S. no longer had a "literacy test" for voting.
John Derbyshire, a longtime National Review columnist who was fired over an article suggesting white and Asian parents educate their children about the threats posed by black people, was also on the list of speakers. He has referred to himself as a "homophobe" and "a racist."
VDare's plan to convene in Colorado Springs was met with strong local pushback. Mayor John Suthers (R) said he could not stop the resort from hosting the group, but that the city would "not provide any support or resources to this event, and does not condone hate speech in any fashion."
"The City remains steadfast in its commitment to the enforcement of Colorado law, which protects all individuals regardless of race, religion, color, ancestry, national origin, physical or mental disability, or sexual orientation to be secure and protected from fear, intimidation, harassment and physical harm," Suthers said in a statement on his website.
A Change.org petition circulated this week to try to convince the resort not to host the conference and garnered over 4,0000 signatures.
VDare's attempts to hold its first-ever conference have been thwarted before. After Media Matters informed Tenaya Lodge, a resort near Yosemite National Park, about the group's views earlier this year, the resort canceled the conference, saying it was unaware "of the nature of" the organization.
Pushback against white nationalist groups and other hate groups has escalated in the wake of the chaotic "Unite the Right" rally over the weekend in Charlottesville, Virginia, which left dozens injured and three people dead. According to its website, VDare also has had its PayPal account abruptly pulled, as happened to the neo-Nazi site The Daily Stormer.
A number of the participants in the "Unite the Right" rally since have been dismissed from their jobs, and planned white nationalist events in Boston and at Texas A&M University have been canceled.
Correction: The original version of this post erroneously identified Colorado Springs Mayor John Suthers as a Democrat. He is a Republican.
