Michigan should make these changes to help people keep their homes
The annual Wayne County Tax Foreclosure Auction isn't until September. But it's important to talk about this now.
Now is when Wayne County Treasurer Eric Sabree's office is preparing to foreclose on properties whose owners have years of unpaid taxes, 27,395, his office said this week, most of them in Detroit.
Now is when those property owners are scrambling to find the money to pay those debts, or at least enough to put down on a payment plan, before they lose their homes.
Kaffer:Wayne County Tax Auction: Why the treasurer should stop holding it
Kaffer:6 questions about tax foreclosure auction Wayne County needs to answer
And now is when there's time to find a better way to administer property tax and tax delinquency in Detroit, months before the auction's artificial timeline closes all options because the foreclosure machine has to grind on.
They say you can stop
The county's tax foreclosure auction is not good. In theory, tax-delinquent property is foreclosed, auctioned and sold to a tax-paying buyer who'll inhabit or improve the property. But it doesn't work that way:
Most auction properties are bought by speculators or bulk buyers who are content to let their purchases languish. Some occupied homes are auctioned each year. Auctioned structures are more likely to become blighted, and the foreclosure process itself is plagued with inconsistencies.
Sabree himself told me last year that he doesn't believe the auction is good for our community, and that he holds it because he is required by law to do so. That's where conversations about the auction normally stop. If Sabree were to postpone the auction, he told me, he believed that the state — either the state Treasurer or the Attorney General — would step in.
That was last year.
But now Michigan has a new state Treasurer, appointed by newly elected Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, and a new Attorney General, progressive Democrat Dana Nessel.
For her part, Nessel says she's not going to force a county treasurer to hold an auction that displaces struggling Detroiters.
"I would absolutely want to work with Eric Sabree and anyone who was in that situation, because at the end of the day, I'm old-fashioned and I subscribe to this ridiculous belief that this office should be about helping people," Nessel told the Free Press editorial board before her election last November. "Especially when you have a county treasurer who says they want to utilize different avenues to assist people to stay in their homes … Yes, I would want to work with him to ensure you could do that."
Mario Morrow, a spokesman for Sabree, says that the treasurer's office is hiring the Flint-based Center for Community Progress to examine the state's property tax and auction laws. That's a great, and long overdue, step. Morrow says the center will research how other states conduct such proceedings, and whether changes to the laws are warranted.
Short answer: Yes
There is no shortage of data to show that the foreclosure auction process is flawed. For years, homes were foreclosed based on inflated assessments. The homes of at least 10,000 people who shouldn't have had to pay any property tax have been auctioned. And it's no secret that many more homeowners are eligible for that property tax exemption, offered to those living in poverty, than receive it. Homes sold in the auction are more likely to be bought by speculators, and to become blighted and abandoned.
The process should be reconfigured to protect vulnerable homeowners from the risk of foreclosure, and to eliminate the cash incentive for counties to hold such auctions.
Any change to state law, of course, requires the approval of the GOP-controlled Michigan Legislature.
Let's say they're into it
Here's what needs to happen:
• Get the word out.
TheThe City of Detroit administers a state-created property-tax exemption program for those living in poverty.. But the poverty exemption is underutilized.
University of Michigan researchers found that about 40,000 owner-occupied Detroit households are eligible each year to receive the exemption., but in 2017, only about 5,500 applied for it, and only 5,200 received it.
Last year, the City of Detroit settled a lawsuit filed by the ACLU over the poverty exemption, saying that the city hadn't done enough to insure that eligible homeowners were told about, and could obtain the the exemption. The city agreed to step up its outreach, and to streamline the application process.
• Make the poverty exemption retroactive.
The poverty exemption is a valuable tool for tax-delinquent residents trying to stay in their homes, but its scope is limited: A homeowner who signs up for the first time in a given tax year is still on the hook for unpaid taxes from previous years, even if the homeowner qualified for the poverty exemption in past years. With interest and fees assessed on the balance, those sums can balloon. For an impoverished person, paying down that balance can be nearly impossible.
The county should ask the Legislature to make the poverty exemption retroactive.
• Remove the financial incentive to foreclose and auction properties.
In many states, property owners whose homes have been foreclosed and auctioned for more than the value of their delinquent property taxes get to keep the difference, minus reasonable fees.
But in Michigan, the county auctioning the property pockets that difference. The tax foreclosure auction has netted $421 million for Wayne County since the housing market crash, a Bridge Magazine analysis found. Putting residents out of their homes shouldn't be a profit center for county governments.

LE MESURIER v. LE MESURIER et al.
C.t Mdtara, 502.
Marriage between Britieh or European spouses resident in the Island—Matrimonial law of Ceylon—Proclamation of 23rd September, 1799-Charters of 1801 and 1833—Scope of s. 597 of Civil ProcedureCode—Applicability of Roman-Dutch law—Authority of Internationallaw in the consideration of jurisdiction of Courts—Remedies for matri-monial misconduct allowable by Courts of the residence of the spouses—Action for divorce—for judicial separation—for alimony.
The matrimonial law of Ceylon, established by the Proclamation of23rd September, 1799, was superseded, or at least modified, in so far asit related to British and European residents, by the enactments of theBoyal Charter of 1801. But upon the repeal of those enactments bythe Charter of Justice of the 18th February, 1833, the Proclamation of1799 was revived, and the matrimonial law applicable to such residentsagain became the Boman-Dutch law.
The Boman-Dutch law does not give jurisdiction to the Courts of thecountry in wnich spouses domiciled elsewhere are for the time resident,to entertain a divorce suit.
Neither does section 597 of the Civil Procedure Code, nor didprevious enactments to a similar effect, empower a District Court toentertain any divorce suit which was not previously cognizable by theCourts of the Island.
According to international law, which is authoritative in the absenceof any municipal law to the contrary, the true domicile of the marriedpair, as distinguished from their so-called matrimonial domicile, affordsthe only test of jurisdiction to dissolve their marriage ; and the Courtsof England will not recognize as effectual the decree of a foreign courtdivorcing spouses who at its date had their domicile in England.
But though a District Court? of the Island cannot decree a dissolu-tion of marriage in the case of such residents, yet it may, under therules of international law, administer other remedies for matrimonialmisconduct, such as judicial separation on the ground of cruelty, andalimony for desertion.
HE plaintiff in this case appealed to Her Majesty the Queen
in Her Privy Council against the judgment of the SupremeCourt delivered on the 29th June, 1895, setting aside the judgmentof the District Court of Matara, and dismissing plaintiff's actionwith costs.
The factB of the case are fully set forth in the judgmentof the Lords of the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council,namely:—
The Lord Chancellor, Lord Watson, Lord Hobhousb,Lord Macnaghten, Lord Morris, and Sir R. Couch.
Their judgment was delivered by Lord Watson, as follows
In February, 1883, the appellant, who is a member of theCeylon Civil Service, was married in England to a French lady,the leading respondent in this appeal, who will hereinafter be
referred to as " the respondent." From the date of their mar-riage nntil the commencement of this suit the spouses had theirprincipal residence in Ceylon, where the appellant was necessarilydetained by his official dnties. In July, 1892, he was AssistantGovernment Agent of the District of Mdtara; and on the 12thof that month he brought the present action before the DistrictCourt of M&tara against his wife and three other defendants,praying for a divorce a vinculo matrimonii and other remedies,upon the allegation that she had committed adnltery with one ofthese defendants in the year 1887, with another of them in theyear 1889, and with the third of them at various times betweenMay, 1891, and April, 1892. Except on the last of these occasions,when the adultery was alleged to have taken place at Kandy, noneof these matrimonial offences was said to have been committedwithin the jurisdiction of the Courts of Ceylon. The loci assignedfor these acts on the two other occasions were, on the first thesteamship Qoorkha, during a ^oyage from England to Colombo,and on the second the steamship Ravenna, daring a voyage fromColombo to Marseilles, and a hotel at Marseilles and in Paris.
In her defence the respondent pleaded that the District Courthad not jurisdiction to entertain the suit. Upon the merits shedenied all three charges of adultery, and, with respect to the firstcharge, pleaded alternatively that it had been condoned by theappellant. Two of the other defendants, who are alleged to havebeen participant in her adulterous acts on the first and thirdoccasions, also lodged defences, denying the charges made againstthem, and pleaded that they were not subject to the jurisdictionof the Court. The defendant in the first charge also set up theplea of condonation.
The appellant is an Englishman by birth; and at the timewhen thiB action was instituted, although officially residentwithin the District of Matara, he admittedly retained, and stillcontinues to retain, his English domicile of origin. He hadpreviously brought a divorce suit, founded on the same chargesof adultery, and directed against the same parties, before theDivorce Court in England, and these proceedings appear to bestill in dependence. At the time when they were cited to appearin the District Court of Mdtara no one of the three persons, whoare co-defendants with the respondent, was resident in, or wasalleged by the appellant to have any connection with the Island.They are described in his plaint as " of Calcutta. India," and" of London, England."
The District Judge ruled that jurisdiction to proceed in thesuit was conferred upon him by section 597 of the Civil Procedure
Vol. I.Y
Pmvt
Council*
1896. Code, No. 2 of 1889, an enactment which their Lordships willPsxvy have occasion to notice more fully. The case accordingly wentCouncil, to trial before him ; and, on considering the evidence, he foundthat the first charge of adultery had been proved, but that it hadbeen condoned by the appellant, and that the second and thirdcharges had also been established. In respect of the latterfindings, he granted a decree nisi to become absolute in fonrmonths, unless good cause were shown against it. On appeal tothe Supreme Court that order was reversed, and the appellant'ssuit dismissed with costs.
Acting Chief Justice Lawrie and Acting Puisne JusticeBrowne, who constituted the Court of Appeal, based their judg-ment upon two independent grounds. They held, in the firstplace, that the Courts of Ceylon had no jurisdiction to dissolve amarriage between British or European spouses resident in theIsland. Such jurisdiction appeared to them to be expresslyexcluded by section 53 of the Royal Charter of the 18th April,1801, which enacted that the jurisdiction of the Supreme Courtof the Island, at that time the only Court competent to trymatrimonial causes, should be exercised " towards and upon all"the Dutch inhabitants of the said town, fort, and district," according to the laws and usages in that behalf in force at the"time the said settlements, territories, and dependencies came" into our possession; and towards and upon the said British"and Europeans, and licensed persons hereinbefore described,"resident in any the said settlements, territories, and depen-dencies, the Ecclesiastical law, as the same is now used and" exercised in the Diocese of London in Great Britain." Thatenactment applied to British residents in Ceylon the Matri-monial law of England as it existed in the year 1801; and if ithad stood unaltered, the conclusion of the learned Judges wouldhave been irresistible. They held, in the second place, that thesecond and third charges of adultery, which were subsequent tocondonation, had not been established by the evidence.
Their Lordships, in deciding this appeal, must observe thelimits which the law of Ceylon imposes upon the matrimonialjurisdiction exercisable by the tribunal before which the actionwas originally brought. It therefore becomes necessary toconsider whether the District Court of Matara was competent toentertain the action and to pronounce decree of divorce a vinculo.To that point, which is one of some importance to British andother European residents in the Island, the arguments of counselon both sides of the bar were exclusively directed.
Jurisdiction in matrimonial causes, which, by the Royal
( J63 )
Charter of 1801, was vested in the Supreme Court of Judicature,has by subsequent legislation been extended to the District Courtsof the Island- The last of a series of enactments to the sameeffect iB to be found in section 597 of the Procedure Code of 1889,which provides that " any husband or wife may present a plaint" to the District Court within the limits of which he or she, as the" case may be, resides, praying that his or her marriage may, by" the law applicable in this Colony to his or her case, be dissolved."The enactment, like those which preceded it, refers to procedureonly, and distributes the matrimonial jurisdiction which maybe competently exercised by its tribunals among the variousCourts of the Colony. The Judge of the District Court assumedthat it gave him jurisdiction to try the present case, but it isclear that neither section 597 of the Code, nor previous enactmentsto a similar effect, empowered him to entertain any divorce suitwhich was not previously cognizable by the Courts of Ceylon.
If section 53 of the Charter of 1801, upon which the learnedJudges of the Supreme Court relied, had continued in force,it would have been beyond the competency of the District Courtof Matara to give the appellant a more stringent remedy than aseparation a mensa et thoro. But it does not appear to have beenbrought under the notice of the Appellate Judges that the wholeclauses of the Charter of 1801, including section 53, were revokedand annulled by the Ceylon Charter of Justice of the 18thFebruary, 1833. Since that date there has been no legislationregulating the jurisdiction of the Courts of Ceylon in matrimonialcauses arising between British or European spouses. In thesecircumstances, it becomes necessary to consider, in the first place,what is the present law of the Island by which such jurisdictionis regulated; and, in the second place, whether, according to thatlaw, the present suit is maintainable.
The first of these questions appears to their Lordships to admitonly of one answer. After the annexation of the Dutch Settle-ments in the Island of Ceylon to the British Crown, a commissionwas granted on the 19th April, 1788, to Frederick North, appoint-ing him to be Governor and Commander-in-Ohief, and containinginstructions to him with respect to the administration of justiceand other matters. In pursuance of these instructions, the Gover-nor issued a Royal Proclamation, promulgated at Colombo on the23rd September, 1799, which declared that the administration ofjustice and police was thenceforth and during His Majesty'spleasure to be exercised by all Courts of Judicature, Civil andCriminal, " according to the law's and institutions that subsisted" under the ancient government of the United Provinces, subjeot

Council.
Pmivr
"to such deviations and alterations by any of the respective" powers and authorities hereinbefore mentioned, and to such" deviations and alterations as We shall by these presents, or by" any future Proclamation, and in pursuance of the authorities" confided to TJs, deem it proper and beneficial for the purposes" of justice to ordain and publish, or which shall or may hereafter" be by lawful authority ordained and published."
The Matrimonial law of the Colony, established by the Procla-mation of 1799, was superseded, or at least modified, in so far asit related to British and European residents, by the enactments ofthe Royal Charter of 1801. But it does not appear to their Lord-ships to admit of doubt that, as soon as these enactments wereswept away by the legislation of 1833, the Proclamation wasrestored to its original force, and the Matrimonial law applicableto British or European residents in Ceylon again became theRoman-Dutch law which had prevailed in the Colony before itsannexation.
Accordingly, the prejudicial question which their Lordshipshavi to decide is, whether the Roman-Dutch law, or any modifi-cation of it introduced into the Colony before the year 1798, givesthe Courts of the Island jurisdiction to dissolve a marriagecontracted in England by British subjects, who, though residentwithin the forum, still retain their English domicile. No authoritycan have a material bearing upon that point which does not relateto the dissolution of marriage ; because there are unquestionablyother remedies for matrimonial misconduct, short of dissolution,which, according to the rules of the jus gentium, may be adminis-tered by the Courts of the country in which spouses, domiciledelsewhere, are for the time resident. If, for instance, a husbanddeserts his wife, although their residence be of a temporarycharacter, these Courts may compel him to aliment her ; and, incases where the residence is of a more permanent character, andthe husband treats his wife with such a degree of cruelty as torender her continuance in his society intolerable, the weight ofopinion among international jurists and the general practice is tothe effect that the Courts of the residence are warranted in givingthe remedy of judicial separation, without reference to thedomicile of the parties. But the considerations which justifythe Courts of the residence in administering remedies for theprotection of mutual rights incidental to marriage, which do notinvolve disruption of the marriage bond, have little or no applica-tion to proceedings taken for the purpose of putting an end to themarriage, and remanding the spouses to the condition of singlepersons.
In order to sustain the competency of the present snit, it isnecessary for the appellant to show that the jurisdiction assumedby the District Judge of Matara was derived, either from somerecognized principle of the general law of nations, or from somedomestic rale of the Roman-Dutch law. If either of these pointswere established, the jurisdiction of the District Court would beplaced beyond question ; but the effect of its decree divorcing thespouses would not in each case be the same. When the jurisdic-tion of the Court is exercised according to the rules of Internationallaw, as in the case where the parties have their domicile withinits forum, its decree dissolving their marriage ought to be res-pected by the tribunals of every civilized country. The opinionsexpressed by the English Common Law Judges in Lolley's case(2 Russ, and Ry. 237) gave rise to a doubt, whether that principlewas in consistency with the law of England, which at that timedid not allow a marriage to be judicially dissolved. That doubthas since been dispelled; and the law of England was, in theirLordships' opinion, correctly 6tated by Lord Westbury in Shaw v.Gould (3 E. & Ap. 85), in these terms:—" The position that the"tribunal of a foreign country having jurisdiction to dissolve the"marriages of its own subjects, is competent to pronounce a" similar decree between English subjects who were married in" England, but who before and at the time of the suit are per-"manently domiciled within the jurisdiction of such foreign" tribunal, such decree being made in a bond fide suit without" collusion or concert, is a position consistent with all the English" decisions, although it may not be consistent with the resolution"commonly cited as the resolution of the judges in Lolley's case."On the other hand, a decree of divorce a vinculo, pronounced bya Court whose jurisdiction is solely derived from some rule ofmunicipal law peculiar to its forum, cannot, when it trenchesupon the interests of any other country whose tribunals thespouses are amenable, claim extra territorial authority.
Mr. Mayue, in his elaborate and able argument for theappellant, did not assert the existence of any special rule in theRoman-Dutch law giving jurisdiction to entertain a divorce suitin such circumstances as occur in the present case. He maintainedthat, in addition to jurisdiction arising from the fact of thespouses having their domicile of succession within the territory,which he admitted to be universally acknowledged, the generallaw of nations recognizes that a concurrent and equally effectivejurisdiction to divorce is created by the spouses' residence withinthe territory of such permanence as to constitute what has beentermed a " matrimonial domicile," although not of sufficient
Paivy
1896. permanence to fix their true domicile there. In support of thetheory of a matrimonial domicile, as distinguished from theCouncil, domicile of succession, the learned counsel relied mainly, if notexclusively, upon certain decisions by the Courts of England andScotland, which he represented as conclusive in his favour.Their Lordships will at once proceed to examine these authorities,beginning with the English cases which do not appear to themto be either consistent or satisfactory. The Scotch cases are not,in their Lordships' opinion, more satisfactory than the English ;but, so far as they go, they have at least the merit of consistency.
The first in date of the English cases is Tollemache v. Tolle-mache (I S. & T. 557), which was decided by Williams, J., Martin,
, and the Judge Ordinary. The suit was for divorce at the instanceof the husband, who was throughout a domiciled Englishman.The parties- were first married at Gretna Green, and thereafterentered into a regular marriage in London in August, 1837. Fromthat date, with the exception of occasional visits to England andWales, they resided continuously in Scotland ; and on the 3rd ofJuly, 1841, the husband obtained a decree of divorce from theScotch Courts of adultery of the wife committed in Scotland.In her answer to the English suit, which was instituted eighteenyears afterwards, the wife also prayed the Court for a decree, declar-ing her marriage with the petitioner to be dissolved. The Courtgranted decree of dissolution, with the observation :—" Sitting" here as an English Court, (we cannot recognize that divorce" (i.e., the Scotch) as putting an end to the marriage bond of a" domiciled Englishman."
The next case in order, Yelverton v. Yelverton (1 S. & T. 574),was a suit at an alleged wife's instance for restitution of conjugalrights, which was dismissed by the Judge Ordinary. The hus-band, who was called as respondent, was not resident, and hadnever been domiciled in England.
Their Lordships have noticed these cases because they werefounded upon in the argument addressed to them. They needhardly observe that in neither of them was any question raisedin regard to matrimonial domicile. In Toll cm ache v. Tollemacheit might very well have been contended that four years' residencethere have given the spouses a matrimonial domicile in Scotland ;but that view of the law does not seem to have occurred eitherto the parties or to the Bench.
In the next case, Brudie v. Brodie (2 S. & T. 259), the peti-tioner, being the husband, was resident, but had not his domicilein England. He had been married to the respondent in Tas-mania, and left her behind him in Melbourne, when he came to
Great Britain. His wife never came to England, and the acts ofadultery charged in his petition were committed in the colony.In giving decree, the Court, consisting of the Judge Ordinary,with Wightman and Williams, J.J., observed " We think that" the petitioner was bond fide resident here, not casually, or as" a traveller ; after he became resident here, his wife was carry-" ing on an adulterous intercourse in Australia. He is, therefore," entitled to a decree nisi for a dissolution of his marriage."These observations go the whole length of affirming that theresidence of the husband in a country where he has not a domi-cile, if such residence be not casual or that of a traveller, givesthe Courts of that country divorce jurisdiction over him, andalso over his wife, although she should continue to reside in thecountry where they both have their domicile of succession.
In Manning v. Manning (2 P. & D. 223), the Judge Ordinarydismissed a petition for divorce -at the instance of an Irishhusband, upon the ground that he was not a bond fide resident inEngland.
The next authority adduced for* the appellant was Wilson v.Wilson (2 P. & D. 435), which their Lordships notice because ofits connection with a Scotch case between the same parties towhich they will have occasion to refer. At the time of theirmarriage in 1861 both the spouses had their domicile of origin inScotland, and they continued to reside thereuntil November, 1866,when the husband discovered that the lady had been guilty ofadultery. He then went to England and lived there with hismother until April, 1871, when he presented his petition to theJudge Ordinary. During its dependence he brought an action inthe Court of Session, and obtained a decree of divorce, after ithad been found that he was still domiciled in Scotland. LordPenzance, upon the evidence before him, held that the petitionerhad, in April, 1871, acquired an English domicile, and he accord-ingly pronounced a similar decree, upon the ground that theScotch Courts had no jurisdiction. No question as to what iscalled matrimonial as distinguished from true domicile was raisedin the case. The petitioner was admittedly resident in England,and was found to have his domicile there ; but Lord Penzance, indelivering judgment, expressed his opinion to the effect thatactual domicile afforded the only true test of jurisdiction in suchcases.
The last, and not the least important of the English authoritiesrequiring to be considered is Niboyet v. Niboyet (3 P. D. 1).Shortly stated, the facts were these. A Frenchman and anEnglishwoman were married at Gibraltar in the year 1856. In 1875
189ft.
Council..
the hnsband went to Newcastle-on-Tyne, and continued to re«idethere until October, 1876, when his wife filed a petition in theDivorce Division of the High Coart of Justice, alleging adultery,coupled with desertion, for two years and upwards. It wasadmitted that the respondent, being in the Consular service ofFrance, had never lost his domicile of origin. The Judge Ordi-nary (Sir R. Phillimore) held that he had no jurisdiction todissolve the marriage (3 P. D. 52). On appeal his judgment wasreversed by James and Cotton, L.J.J., the present Master of theRolls (then Lord Justice Brett) dissenting. The main reasonassigned for their decision by the learned Judges of the majoritywaB that, before the Act of 1857 became law, the petitioner wouldhave been entitled to Bue her husband in the Bishop's Court,although he was not domiciled in England, and to ask either for >restitution of conjugal rights, or for a divorce a mensd et thoro;and in either case for proper alimony ; and consequently that,after the Act of 1857 passed, jurisdiction in divorce might beexercised in the same circumstances. There appears to theirLordships to be an obvious fallacy in that reasoning. It is notdoubtful that there may be residence without domicile sufficientto sustain a suit for restitution of conjugal rights, for separation,or for aliment; but it does not follow that such residence mustalso give jurisdiction to dissolve the marriage. Their Lordshipscannot construe section 27 of the Act of 1857 as giving theEnglish Court divorce jurisdiction in all cases where any othermatrimonial suit would previously have been entertained in theBishop's Court.
The only Scotch authority cited by Mr. Mayne was Pitt v. Pitt(1 Sess. Ca. 3rd series 106, and 4 Macq. Ap. Ca. 627). But inorder to ascertain whether, and if so to what extent, the doctrineof matrimonial domicile is regarded in Scotland as a good founda-tion for the exercise of divorce jurisdiction, their Lordships findit necessary to refer to the other cases in which the doctrine hasbeen applied or discussed by a Scotch Court. Although theMatrimonial Courts of Scotland had previously exhibited no lackof ingenuity in discovering grounds for exercising divorce juris-diction in cases where the parties had their domicile elsewhere,it was not until the year 1862 that the idea of a matrimonialdomicile, other than trne domicile, arid resting upon a somewhatindefinite permanency of residence, which had been fore-shadowed in Shields v. Shields (4 Sess. Ca. 2nd series 142), wasfirst formulated and applied in Jack u. Jack (24 Sess. Ca. 2ndseries 467),
In that case both spouses were Scotch, and after their marriage
they continued to live together in Scotland until the year 1855,when the husband went to America and became a Minister of theGospel at Newburgh, in the State of New Tork, the wife continuingto reside in Scotland. Four and a half years afterwards thehusband, who was still in America, brought his action founded onadultery committed by his wife in Scotland. It was met by theplea of no jurisdiction, and was heard before twelve Judges of theCourt of Session, who upheld the jurisdiction of the Court by amajority of eleven to one. The late Lord President Inglis (at thattime Lord Justice Clerk) went upon the ground of matrimonialdomicile, which he thus defined :—" The true inquiry, I appre-" hend, in every such case is, where is the home or seat of the" marriage for the time ; where are the spouses actually resident" if they be together; or, if from any cause they are separate," what is the place in which they are under obligation to come" and renew, or commence, their cohabitation as man and wife ? "Five other Judges took substantially the same view expressed indifferent language. Lord President McNeill, with two of theirLordships, concurred in the judgment, holding that the domicileof the married pair had never been transferred to any othercountry. Lord Einloch and Lord Jerviswoode intimated theiropinion that the true domicile of the husband was the only test ofjurisdiction, but held that the husband was not shown to have losthis Scotch domicile. Lord Deas held that there was no jurisdiction,because the pursuer had acquired a new domicile in the UnitedStates. With regard to the matrimonial domicile, which foundfavour with some members of the Court, his Lordship observed :—" Neither can I solve this case by what has been sometimes called" the domicile of the marriage. The phraseology appears to me" to be calculated to mislead. It is figurative, and wants judicial" precision. There is no third domicile involved apart from the" domicile of the husband and the domicile of the wife. Domicile" belongs exclusively to persons. Having ascertained the domicile" of the husband and the domicile of the wife, the inquiry into" domicile is exhausted."
The doctrine of matrimonial domicile, as explained by the'Lord Justice Clerk in Jack v. Jack, was subsequently applied byhis Lordship and the other Judges of the Second Division inHume v. Hume (24 Sees. Ca. 2nd series 1342), where they granteda decree of divorce for adultery to a wife whose husband hadbeen in America for seventeen years, and was living with a womanwhom he had married there.

1895.jurisdiction in Scotland, is Pitt v. Pitt, already mentioned. In tbat
Privy case, Colonel Pitt, a domiciled Englishman and married there,Council. went to Scotland, chiefly for the purpose of avoiding his creditors,leaving his wife in London. With the exception of occasionalvisits, in disguise, to relatives in England, he continued to residein the Hebrides for six years, and then brought an action fordivorce on the ground of adultery. His wife, who had neverbeen in Scotland, appeared to defend, and pleaded that, herhusband being domiciled in England, the Court of Session hadno jurisdiction. After proof, the Lord Ordinary (Kinloch) foundthat the pursuer had acquired a domicile in Scotland, and gavehim decree of divorce. His decision was affirmed by the SecondDivision of the Court, who, differing from him on that point,came to the conclusion that the pursuer still retained his Englishdomicile, but held that his residence in Scotland had been ofsuch a character as to make that country the domicile of themarriage. On appeal to the House of Lords, these judgmentswere reversed, and the defender assoilzied from the conclusionsof the action. At the bar of the House, the pursuer's counsel(Sir R. Phillimore, then Queen's Advocate, and Sir Hugh Cairns)intimated that "they had come to the resolution of abandoning" as untenable the ground on which the Second Division of the" Court of Session had rested their decision, namely, that divorce" a vinculo might be validly granted to strangers not domiciled," though temporarily resident, within the jurisdiction." Theyaccordingly confined their argument in support of the judg-ments appealed from to an endeavour to show that Colonel Pitthad acquired a Scottish domicile. The Lord Chancellor (West-bury), in delivering judgment, referred to the course taken bycounsel in these terms :—" If he was not domiciled in Scotland" to all intents and purposes, having relinquished his original" domicile and acquired a domicile in Scotland, then by the con-" cession of the counsel at the bar, a concession which is, I trust," in the opinion of your Lordships, quite in accordance with the" law of the case, it will be impossible to maintain the order"which has been pronounced in the Court below." NeitherLord Chelmsford nor Lord Kingsdown, who sat with the LordChancellor, took any exception to that statement.
After the observations made by Lord Westbury in Pitt v. Pitt,from which the other noble and learned Lords present did notexpress dissent, it would be very rash to affirm that, according tothe law of Scotland, mere matrimonial domicile affords anyground for jurisdiction to divorce. There is ho trace of thedoctrine to be found in the Institutes of Scottish law, or in the
earlier decisions of the Coart; and, during the thirty-one yearswhich have elapsed Bince the case of Pitt v. Pitt was decided bythe House of Lords, the divorce jurisdiction of the Court ofSession has never been exercised on that ground. It has, how-ever, been twice referred to since that date—first, in the year 1872,in Wilson v. Wilson (10 Sets. Ca. 3rd series 613); and again, tenyears afterwards, in Stavert v. Stavert (9 Sess. Ca. 4th series529).
In Wilson v. Wilson the parties were the same as in theEnglish case already noticed. On his finding that his Englishsuit was met by the plea that he retained his Scottish domicile,the husband brought an action of divorce in the Court of Session,and was there met by the plea that he had acquired an Englishdomicile. The Lord Ordinary, whose judgment was affirmed bythe First Division, found that he was domiciled in Scotland, and,notwithstanding the dependence of the English suit, granteddecree of divorce. In the note appended to his judgment theLord Ordinary (Ormidale) observed, that " having regard to the" judgment in the House of Lords in Pitt v. Pitt in April, 1864," any such thing as a consistorial or matrimonial domicile must" be held to be unknown to the law." In delivering the judg-ment of the Inner House, Lord President Inglis said :—" In cases" of divorce, jurisdiction depends upon domicile, and the" domicile in this case is here. And if the domicile, and conse-" quently the jurisdiction, is here, they can be nowhere else. I" have always been of opinion, as I expressed myself in the case" of Pitt—and I have never seen any reason to change that" opinion—that for the purposes of divorce there may be a matri-"monial domicile, differing from the absolute domicile which" will rule succession." Their Lordships find it difficult toreconcile these statements. If there really were such a thing asa matrimonial domicile recognized by general law, it is not easyto comprehend why the jurisdiction could be nowhere else thanin Scotland. On that assumption the pursuer had certainlyacquired a matrimonial domicile in England by five years'continuous residence there ; and, in deference to internationalrules, the Scotch Court ought not to have entertained the samelis which was already pending in the proper Court of the matri-monial domicile.
In Stavert v. Stavert the Lord Ordinary refused to grant adivorce to a foreigner who had come to Scotland with his para-mour and had lived there for five months, with the sole objectof obtaining a divorce from his wife. The pursuer maintained,alternatively, that lie had acquired either a real domicile or a
Couson..
1895. matrimonial domicile in Scotland. The Lord President (Inglis)
Pbivy held that he was possessed of neither; and with reference toCouncil, matrimonial domicile his Lordship said :—" There has been a" good deal of speculation on this point, but fortunately it is not" necessary to deal with the question here. It has not yet been" decided in the Court of last resort." Lord Deas reiterated theviews which he had expressed in Pitt v. Pitt; and Lord Shand,dealing with the same subject, said :—" I have great difficulty in" finding any sound principle of general application which would" induce foreign Courts to give weight to a decree in this country" based on such jurisdiction ; and I have, further, great difficulty" in finding any rule or standard as to the nature and extent of" the residence which would be necessary or sufficient to found" such a jurisdiction."
When carefully examined, neither the English nor the Scotchdecisions are, in their Lordships' opinion, sufficient to establishthe proposition that, in either of these countries, there exists arecognized rnle of general law, to the effect that a so-calledmatrimonial domicile gives jurisdiction to dissolve marriage.
Tollemache v. Tollemache, which was decided by three Judgesin 1859, shortly after the passing of the Divorce Act, appears tobe an authority to the contrary. The learned Judges sustainedthe jurisdiction of the English Court, which was the forum ofthe husband's domicile, and disregarded as incompetent a decreeof the Court of Session dissolving his marriage, although he hada matrimonial domicile in Scotland, where he had bond fideresided for four years with his wife, neither casually, nor as atraveller. Then in Brodie v. Brodie, in the year 1861, threelearned Judges decided the opposite, holding that residence ofthat kind, which had been found in Tollemache v. Tollemache tobe insufficient to give jurisdiction to a Scotch Court, where thedomicile was English, was, nevertheless, sufficient to give juris-diction to themselves where the domicile was Australian. InWilson v. Wilson jurisdiction was sustained by Lord Penzanceupon the ground that the petitioner had acquired an Englishdomicile, with an expression of opinion by his Lordship thatsuch domicile ought to be the sole ground of jurisdiction todissolve marriage. In Niboyet v. Niboyet, Sir Robert Phillimoreexpressed a similar opinion, and dismissed the suit of the peti-tioner, who had a matrimonial domicile in England, which fullyanswered the definition of such domicile given either in Brodiev. Brodie or in Pitt v. Pitt. His decision was, no doubt, reversedin the Court of Appeal ; but it had the support of the presentMaster of the Rolls, and their Lordships have already pointed
out that the judgment of the majority was mainly, if notaltogether, based upon a reason which will not bear scrutiny.
The Scotch decisions appear to their Lordships to be equallyinefficient to show that a matrimonial domicile is a recognizedground of divorce jurisdiction. So far as they go they areconsistent enough, but the doctrine appears to have had a verybrief existence, because the three cases in which it was appliedall occurred between the 7th February and the 14th Decemberin the year 1862. Although, owing to the course taken by theappellant's counsel in Pitt v. Pitt, the House of Lords had notan opportunity of expressly deciding the point, there can be littledoubt that the approval of the course adopted by counsel, whichwas openly expressed by Lord Westbury, has had the effect ofdiscrediting the doctrine in Scotland ; and it is impossible toaffirm that the Court of Session would now give effect to it. Theeminent Judge, who in 1862 was the first to give a full and clearexposition of the doctrine of matrimonial domicile, spoke of it,in the year 1882, not as a doctrine accepted in the law of Scotland,but as matter of speculation.
It is a circumstance not undeserving of notice that the learnedJudges, whether English or Scotch, who have expressed judicialopinions in favour of a matrimonial domicile, have abstainedfrom reference to those treatises on International law which aregenerally regarded as authoritative, in the absence of anymunicipal law to the contrary. The reason for their abstinenceis probably to be found in the circumstance, that nothing couldbe extracted from these sources favourable to the view whichthey took. Their Lordships are of opinion that in deciding thepresent case, on appeal from a Colony which is governed by theprinciples of the Roman-Dutch law, these authorities ought not tobe overlooked.
Huber (Lib. 1, til. 3, a. 2. De Gonfl. Leg.) states the rule ofInternational law in these terms :—" Hectores imperiorum id" comiter agunt, ut jura cujuaque populi intra terminos qua" exercita, teneant ubique suam vim, quatenus nihil potestati aut"juri alterius imperantis ejusque civium prcejudicetur." Thatpassage was cited with approbation by Lord Cranworth and LordWestbury in Shaw v. Gould (3 E. and I. Ap. 72 and 81). Tothe same effect, but in language more pointed, is the text ofRodenburg (De Stat. Divers, tit. 1, c. 3, s. 4) cited in the same caseby Lord Westbury :—" Unicum hoc ipsa ret natura ac necessitas" invexit, ut cum de statu et conditions hominum quceritur, uni" solum modo Judici, et quidem Domicilii, universum in iUd jus" sit attributum." The same rule is laid down by Bar, the latest
Pxiyt
1895. Continental 'writer on the theory and practice of International
purr private law. He says (Sec. 173, Gillespie's translation, p. 382)Council. «that in actions of divorce—unless there is some express enact-" ment to the contrary—the Judge of the domicile or nationality" is the only competent Judge." And he adds :—" A decree of" divorce, therefore, pronounced by any other Judge than a Judge" of the domicile or nationality, iB to be regarded in all other" countries as inoperative."
There can, in their Lordships' opinion, be no satisfactory canonof International law regulating jurisdiction in divorce caseswhich is not capable of being enunciated with sufficient precisionto ensure practical uniformity in its application. But any judi-cial definition of matrimonial domicile which has hitherto beenattempted has been singularly wanting in precision, and not inthe least calculated to produce a uniform result. The definitionsgiven in Brodie v. Brodie and in Pitt v. Pitt appear to theirLordships to be equally open to that objection. Bond fide resi-dence is an intelligible expression, if, as their Lordships conceive,it means residence which has not been resorted to for the merepurpose of getting a divorce which was not obtainable in thecountry of domicile. Residence which is " not that of a traveller "is not very definite ; but nothing can be more vague than thedescription of residence which, not being that of a traveller, isnot to be regarded as " casual." So also the place where it is theduty of the wife to rejoin her husband, if they happen to beliving in different countries/is very indefinite. It may be herconjugal duty to return to his society although he is living as atraveller, or casually, in a country where he has no domicile.Neither the English nor the Scotch definitions, which are to befound in the decisions already referred to, give the least indica-tion of the degree of permanence, if any, which is required inorder to constitute matrimonial domicile, or afford any test bywhich that degree of permanence is to be ascertained. The intro-duction of so loose a rule into the jus gentium would, in allprobability, lead to an inconvenient variety of practice, and wouldoccasion the very conflict which it is the object of Internationaljurisprudence to prevent.
Their Lordships attach great weight to the consideration that thetheory of matrimonial domicile for which the appellant contendshas never been acoepted in the Court of last resort for Englandand Scotland. The matter does not rest there, because thetheory is not only in direct opposition to the clear opinionexpressed by Lord Westbury in Pitt v. Pitt, but appears to theirLordships to be at variance with the principles recognised by
noble and learned Lords in Dolphin v. Robins (7 H. L. Ca. 390)and in Shaw v. Gould (3 E. A I. Ap. 55). It is true that in thesecases, and especially in Dolphin v. Robins, there waB ground forholding that the spouses had resorted to a foreign country and aforeign tribunal, in order to escape from the law and the Courts oftheir English domicile. But in both, the international principle,upon which jurisdiction to dissolve a marriage depends, was con-sidered and discussed ; and the arguments addressed to theirLordships in favour of matrimonial domicile appear to them torun counter to the whole tenor of the observations which weremade by noble and learned Lords in these cases. In Dolphin v.Robins, Lord Cranworth stated that " it must be taken now as" clearly established that the Scotch Court has no power to"dissolve an English marriage, where, as in this case, the" parties are not really domiciled in Scotland, but have only" gone there for such a time as, according to the doctrine of the" Scotch Courts, gives them jurisdiction in the matter." In Shaivv. Gould, the dicta of noble and learned Lords upon the point raisedin this appeal were even more emphatic. I^ords Cranworth andWestbury expressed their entire approval of the doctrine laid downby Huber and Rodenburgh in those passages which have alreadybeen cited. Their Lordships did not go the length of saying thatthe Courts of no other country could divorce spouses who weredomiciled in England ; but they held that the Courts of Englandwere not bound, by any principle of International law, torecognize as effectual the decree of a foreign Court divorcingspouses who, at its date, had their domicile in England. Theother noble and learned Lords who took part in the decisionof Shaw v. Gould were Lords Chelmsford and Colonsay. LordChelmsford did not express any opinion upon the subject ofmatrimonial domicile. Lord Colonsay rested his judgment uponthe fact that the spouses had resorted to Scotland for the verypurpose of committing a fraud upon the law of their Englishdomicile ; but he indicated an opinion that, in the absence of suchfraudulent purpose, they might have obtained a valid divorce inScotland, after a residence in that country which was insufficientto change their domicile of succession.
Their Lordships have in these circumstances, and upon theseconsiderations, come to the conclusion that, according to Inter-national law, the domicile for the time being of the married pairaffords the only true test of jurisdiction to dissolve their mar-riage. They concur, without reservation, in the views expressedby Lord Penzance in Wilson v. Wilson (1 P. and D. 442), whichwere obviously meant to refer, not to questions arising in regard
Pbivt
PWVY
C 176 )
to the mutual rights of married persons, but to jurisdiction inthe matter of divorce : —" It is the strong inclination of my own" opinion that the only fair and satisfactory rule to adopt on" this matter of jurisdiction is to insist upon the parties in all" cases referring their matrimonial differences to the Courts of" the country in which they are domiciled. Different commu-" nities have different views and laws respecting matrimonial" obligations, and a different estimate of the causes which should" justify divorce. It is both just aud reasonable, therefore, that" differences of married people should be adjusted in accordance" with the laws of the community to which they belong, and" dealt with by the tribunals which alone can administer those" laws. An honest adherence to this principle, moreover, will" preclude the scandal which arises when a man and woman are"held to be man and wife in one country, and strangers in" another."
Their Lordships will, therefore, humbly advise Her Majesty toaffirm the order appealed from. The appellant must pay to thefirst and fourth respondents their costs of this appeal.

Getting Virtualbox to automatically start seems to be a pretty big problem if you do a search for "virtualbox ubuntu autostart". Most of the issues seem to be stuck at the same part; Vbox runs just fine when running the "vboxautostart-service" but it just will not start when Ubuntu starts. The problem is the runlevels.
Notice I have vboxdrv set to start before the rest of the Vbox services. It's pretty simple to change the order, just be careful. First you want to remove the service from update-rc.d, then add it back in with the new order. Here is an example.

text: Q: SVMlight VS class SVM opencv I want to classify road signs using Hog descriptors and SVMs (a linear kernel). I am going to classify each sign versus a non sign (eg different training for each sign). After some research I have seen that it is better to use SVMlight instead of function SVM_train of opencv   and that the hog descriptor for people detection implemented in opencv was also trained using SVMlight. Is this true? And why is it better to use SVMlight or LIBsvm instead of class SVM? Thank you!

Q: Why hooking HeapFree with Detours not working for delete/free? I'm trying to write a memory tracker for my Windows app. I've already finished a prototype using Detours. I hooked HeapAlloc, HeapReAlloc, HeapFree, HeapDestroy and output some logs for me to check. However there's something wrong.
Here's my sample code:
void thread_foo()
{
    while(1)
    {
        void* tempPtr = HeapAlloc(GetProcessHeap(), 0, 3);
        Sleep(50);
    }
}

int main()
{
    std::thread tobj(thread_foo);
    int size = 16;
    tobj.join();
}

And here's my tracking output (first 32 lines, format as ALLOC/FREE/REALLOC/DESTROY: timestamp, call stack hash, heap pointer, flags, size, result pointer):

The problem is the 4th and 5th line, as we can see, get the same pointer. There's no HeapFree or HeapDestroy between them. And these 2 HeapAllocs are not my calls, I can determine it by the size. I assume they are related with std::thread. And they are not the only same pair. 9th, 14th, 20th, 32th lines are also same.
If removing thread-related codes, by simply calling thread_foo() in main(), everything looks good again.
Does anybody get any idea for it?
P.S. If there's anybody caring about the hooking code, it's just based on https://github.com/microsoft/Detours/blob/master/samples/tracemem/trcmem.cpp
I added hooking HeapReAlloc, HeapFree, HeapDestroy and collecting logs to file.
ALL CLEAR! ALL CLEAR!
I found why. The reason is that although I hooked HeapFree, all memory freed by delete or free() didn't call my wrapped HeapFree. I don't know why, but that's the fact. Now I also hooked CRT free(), the prevously hidden free message comes out.
Therefore, I changed the title of this question. Hoped anyone has any clue about it.

A: Pretty much every modern C++ implementation will recycle small allocations internally, without involving the OS. Involving the OS takes a certain time overhead, and the few bytes saved just don't justify that.

Andrew Rogerson, the new chancellor at UA Little Rock, has decided to study the cost of starting a major college football team on campus (plus a marching band). Technically, it would be a revival of football, dropped more than 60 years ago when the school was a junior college.
Rogerson says he's a scientist and he wants to see some numbers.
No NASA engineers will be required to tell him the numbers will take some massaging to look good. They will have to be influenced by hard-to-quantify claims that football means an increased enrollment, greater college-directed philanthropy, community economic benefits and general enthusiasm for a popular sport.
The Arkansas experience provides contrary evidence. Only the Arkansas Razorbacks have a self-supporting athletic department, thanks to huge revenue from a football TV contract. Premium seat sales and big donors help.
Elsewhere in Arkansas, big-time sports are costly and don't produce attendance or private contributions to match.
Arkansas State University in Jonesboro keeps adding to its stadium and raising coaches' pay, running up $43 million in expenses last year according to a 2015-16 NCAA report. To cover the costs, it required $5 million in student fees and $8 million in school funds. Athletic spending has risen sharply the last five years on the ASU campus, according to the Knight Commission on Intercollegiate Athletics, to more than $84,000 per athlete while academic spending on campus has held essentially flat over five years at $7,983 per student. The athletic department managed only $1.7 million in ticket sales for sporting events, enough to cover about 4 percent of athletic costs.
Other Division I schools struggle more. UA Little Rock is already tapping students for $3.8 million and general funds for $3.9 million to support the existing sports, with basketball the marquee sport in a department currently spending $11.4 million.
UA Pine Bluff plays Division I sports. It hasn't been a ticket to community resurgence, such as Little Rock Mayor Mark Stodola seems to believe is a byproduct. Its $7 million Athletic Department is almost wholly funded by students ($1 million) and university money ($5 million).
Up in Conway, the University of Central Arkansas has invested in stadium and coaches to go big-time. Its athletic department took in $12.7 million last year, $4.9 million from student fees and $4.5 million from school funds. It realized not even a half-million dollars in ticket sales.
Little Rock doesn't have much room to grow revenue from students, though grow it must to finance football, the most expensive of all sports. The school's state money is already tapped to the maximum. It can pick up a couple of million by selling itself as a cupcake matchup to one of the handful of big-time schools that make money on athletics. But a tightening cable TV market plus evidence of football burnout doesn't offer much hope for TV revenue to make up shortages.
Is there a major philanthropist ready to pony up a huge gift to start football at a campus still striving to establish a residential identity to go with its long mission as a commuter school catering to a large number of so-called nontraditional students? Maybe Rogerson could pay a call on the Walton family. They owe UA Little Rock big time for giving them a piece of the campus for a Little Rock School District-damaging charter school. Maybe they'd offer a gratuity for a football team.
Little Rock won't have to build a stadium. The state Parks and Tourism Department, which now controls War Memorial Stadium, is helping to pay for the football study in hopes Little Rock will produce a paying customer. The Razorbacks are down to a game a year there and it's probably gone in a year.
Taxing college students with new fees to pay the rent on a football stadium will be a mathematical equation that Chancellor Rogerson might have a hard time selling — even to a remedial math class.

Supreme Court confirms effectiveness of 'no oral variation' clauses
Edward Attenborough |
Paul Brumpton |
Raif Hassan
Against a backdrop of inconsistent authorities, in Rock Advertising Limited v MWB Business Exchange Centres Limited1, the United Kingdom Supreme Court considered the effectiveness of so-called 'no oral modification' clauses, which purport to preclude contractual variations other than in writing. The Supreme Court, in allowing the appeal, confirmed that 'no oral modification' clauses should be given effect according to their terms. The decision will be welcomed by parties who include such clauses in their contracts for legal certainty.
MWB operates serviced offices in London. Rock entered into a licence agreement with MWB to occupy office space for a year at one of MWB's properties near Marble Arch. That agreement contained a 'no oral modification' ("NOM") clause. During the term, Rock's rent payments fell into arrears and its sole director negotiated with a credit controller at MWB an oral agreement to reschedule the rent payments. When Rock began to pay at the revised rates, MWB demanded the full amount. When it was not forthcoming, MWB locked Rock out of the premises, terminated its licence and sued for the rent arrears in accordance with the original terms of the licence. Rock counterclaimed, seeking damages for wrongful exclusion from the offices. Both parties' claims turned on the effectiveness of their oral agreement to vary the licence agreement.
The judge at first instance held that, although Rock had made an oral agreement with MWB's credit controller to reschedule its rent payments, and that the credit controller had ostensible authority to make such an agreement, the NOM clause in the parties' licence agreement was effective. He held that the parties' oral amendment was therefore ineffective because it was not in writing and signed by the parties, as stipulated by the clause. Accordingly, MWB was entitled to demand payments under the original payment schedule, and evict Rock when those payments were not made.
The Court of Appeal disagreed. It held that the clause was ineffective and that MWB was bound by the oral amendment (and therefore not entitled to evict Rock and claim the arrears). The Court of Appeal reasoned that: first, in English law there are no formal requirements for the validity of a contract and, with few statutory exceptions, contracts can be made orally or in writing, with or without a signature. Second, a variation of a contract is itself a contract. Finally, when Rock and MWB agreed orally to vary the payment schedule in their contract, it was implied that they were also agreeing to dispense with the NOM clause.
The Court of Appeal's decision emphasised the importance of parties' freedom of contract and party autonomy. So, a contract containing a clause which purported to prohibit variation of the contract by oral agreement could nonetheless be varied by the parties without the formality stipulated in the original agreement (i.e., by oral agreement or by conduct). MWB appealed the decision.
The majority of the Supreme Court, in allowing the appeal, held that NOM clauses should be given effect according to their terms. In doing so, the Supreme Court flatly rejected the notion that an informal variation automatically or impliedly destroys an agreement precluding informal variations. Lord Briggs (dissenting as to reasoning but not as to result) took the view that a NOM clause should continue to bind the parties, but only until the parties expressly (or by strictly necessary implication) agreed to dispense with it (which they were free to do even without complying with the formality of the NOM clause). But the majority took a stricter approach, holding that parties could not effectively agree to remove a NOM clause orally.
As to concerns raised in previous judgments over party autonomy and conceptual inconsistencies between (i) a general rule allowing contracts to be made informally (e.g., orally), and (ii) a specific rule that effect would be given to contracts requiring variations to be in writing, the majority took the view that there is no inconsistency: what parties agree in a NOM clause is not that they are forbidden to subsequently agree to vary the contract informally (a notion offensive to party autonomy), but that any informal agreement that does not comply with the formal requirements they have stipulated will be ineffective (although of course the practical effect is the same).
The Supreme Court's decision favours legal certainty over the flexibility of many of the old authorities on NOM clauses, which allowed for the possibility that the parties may have intended to be bound by an agreement that did not respect the formality requirements of their historic agreement. But, recognising the potential for injustice in cases where a party acts on a contract purportedly varied in this way, the Court noted that other safeguards exist in the law of estoppel. So, where a party has acted to its detriment in reliance on the effectiveness of an oral variation, the other party may in some cases be estopped from relying on the NOM clause. The Court did not explore the circumstances in which an estoppel may apply (there being no grounds for an estoppel on the facts in this case), but did note that there would have to be some words or conduct unequivocally representing that the variation was valid notwithstanding its informality, for which more would be required than just the informal agreement itself. The Court emphasised that the scope of estoppel cannot be so broad as to undermine the certainty the parties sought in agreeing the NOM clause.
Prior to the Rock Advertising judgment, the authorities on NOM clauses had been inconsistent and so the effect of such clauses unclear. Accordingly, it has been difficult for parties to have certainty as to their rights in situations where the effectiveness of a NOM clause – a very common term of commercial and other contracts – is engaged. To this extent at least, the Supreme Court's decision provides welcome clarity on the effectiveness of such clauses.
A party that has acted in reliance on an oral variation that is ineffective in the face of a NOM clause may be able take some comfort in the continued availability of equitable remedies, but such remedies are an unattractive – and limited – alternative.
The best practical advice to parties has always been to comply with the requirements of NOM clauses. The Supreme Court's decision will mean that, in most cases, parties will be left with limited prospects of recourse if they have failed to do so when amending a contract that contains such a clause.

The next Note device Samsung comes up with could feature a unique design incorporating a bendable display, the head of the company's mobile division, DJ Koh has stated. If that is not salivating enough, such a device could be ready for launch as early as next year itself.
That said, Koh has also expressed a word of caution saying the said device will be launched only when the bendable design technology is feasible enough and is ready for induction in the mass market. Samsung would be aiming for a wider launch of the device instead of projecting it as a niche product.
So that should be the clearest hint one can have of the project getting besotted with delays if things don't work out as per plan. And with the target being quite futuristic, it would perhaps be wise to not pin too much hopes on the very next Note iteration to have a bendable display.
As it is, Samsung has for long toyed with the idea of launching a device with a bendable display. Unfortunately, the nearest it has ever come to such a concept is a few prototypes that it had showed off at various tech events. Those again were fascinating to say the least but none of them transcended to the mass market.
In fact, Samsung was also rumored to launch a bendable display during the 2017 Mobile World Congress event but there was none of it. Interestingly, Samsung is the first to offer smartphone with curved displays in the form of the Galaxy Edge series though such a feature has become default in its flagship range.
Worth mentioning, Microsoft too has hinted of coming up with a new smartphone that would have a bendable display. However unlike Samsung that has pretty much confirmed it is working on such a device, Microsoft prefers to be highly secretive when it comes to it smartphone ambitions. Experts though opine the Surface branded bendable smartphone that would easily transform into a tablet will be ready for launch sometime next year.
Lenovo had also showcased a foldable device that could function as a 7.8-inch tablet when fully deployed or a 5.5-inch smartphone when folded. Lenovo however hasn't stated when or if at all it wishes to launch the device.


The command gave the warning in a statement by its Spokesperson, Mrs Irene Ugbo, a Deputy Superintendent of Police, on Friday in Calabar.
Ugbo said that some bloggers and social media users were in the habit of posting fake news in their blogs and websites to propagate cheap blackmail by inciting the public against government institutions.
She said that the command, in collaboration with the leadership of Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) in the state would not hesitate to deal decisively with any individual or group peddling fake news.
According to her, some of the bloggers who have joined the media profession without requisite training and journalism background were frustrating the cordial working relationship of NUJ and the Police in the state.
"In the same vein, the command wants to categorically state that the fake news making rounds on social media that three babies were stolen at the University of Calabar Teaching Hospital is not true.
"The story is a blatant lie and calculated attempt to undermine or tarnish the hospital's reputation, thereby causing security breach in the state and the hospital,'' she stated.


Pink Topaz Silver Ring Trillion Cut, Pink Punk - This ring takes no prisoners! Punky, pink, and punchy, it is made of sweeping curves and chunky angles. A 14mm pink topaz sits high aloft the finger, encased in thick sterling silver. The trillion shaped stone is a patented shade of pink, exclusive to the Frank Reubel line. It's almost a bubble gum shade, and the light dispersion shows some rainbow glints here and there. It's held in place by a V prong on one side and a curved bezel on the other. This bezel sweeps down to form the ring, and there are some polka dot holes that allow light play. Square on the bottom, it wears comfortably and stays upright on the hand. Setting is sterling silver.

REAL Housewives of New Jersey star Dolores Catania admitted that she didn't tell her boyfriend about her plastic surgery procedures until the night before she was meant to go to the hospital.
The couple appeared to be airing their issues on the new season of Real Housewives of New Jersey when they clashed over Dolores' decision to go under the knife without letting David Principe know.

In a preview for the upcoming season premiere of the Bravo show, Dolores and her boyfriend butt heads over her plastic surgery choices.
The star admitted to getting liposuction and a tummy tuck after losing weight amid the coronavirus pandemic in 2020.
In the video, Dolores and David were talking about how the RHONJ husbands had asked about him when he missed a group dinner when he suddenly threw it in her face that she had made some choices he wasn't supportive of.
He tells her: "When's your next surgery? Because you didn't tell me about this one."
She claimed she could do anything she wanted because he hadn't committed to her like she wantedCredit: Bravo
Dolores then told producers in a confessional interview: "Things are a little dicey between me and David because I got a tummy tuck, a liposuction, a butt lift a little bit.
"And I didn't tell him until the night before I was leaving because David is not for elective surgery."
The housewife, who clearly had enough of his reproaches however.
She said: "You know, David, sometimes you're off the charts because you go on and on about my plastic surgery."

He quickly told her that he was worried she would have a complication.
"You know what, David? What's really good about our relationship is that I have the freedom to do whatever I want," she retorted.
"And I don't demand the commitment that I thought I needed. You shouldn't act like that, David."
When Dolores brought up him not proposing to her, he stood up from the table and told her, "we're done," before walking away from her.

One of the main issues that Dolores and David have had is his lack of commitment to her.
He has refused to accompany her on cast events or propose to her, which put a halt on their plans to move in together during the last season of RHONJ.
Things got a little more complicated when Frank Catania, Dolore's ex-husband, was living at her place despite them breaking up after he cheated on her.
However, the three of them get along very well.
Dolores has always been very open about her plastic surgery over the summer, while RHONJ had suspended filming due to the ongoing pandemic.

She told PEOPLE back in July: "I had lost 25 lbs. from dieting and still wasn't completely comfortable with my body. I found myself still wanting to cover up.
"Once I hit my goal weight and I knew that my stomach wouldn't be the way I wanted it to even if I worked out, I knew it was time."
She explained that a looming big birthday and staying at home made it the perfect timing for the procedure.
"I'm turning 50 this year. And I said, 'This is the year where I'm going to do anything I've thought about or held off on. I'm ready to do it.' And I've thought about a tummy tuck for a while," she told the publication.
"You're immobile for a good three weeks," she said of the recovery process.
"Finding the right doctor and feeling comfortable gives you the confidence to go ahead with it.
"You can't wake up every day feeling unhappy about yourself. I'm a big advocate of doing what you need to do in order to love yourself."
Since then, the housewife has shown off her weight loss on social media as she poses in bikinis.

Q: how to use dbms_scheduler to run the job every 30 minutes I am using oracle DB ,  now as i am monitoring the performance of oracle DB which is connected to my java application , so rite now i have to monitor the count of active connections in DB at regular intervals lets say after every 30 minutes  below is the query which return me the count of active users along with there name and count
select osuser, count(osuser) as active_conn_count
from v$session
group by osuser
order by active_conn_count desc

now please  advise how can i make an schedule a job in scheduler in oracle DB itself that will get triggered at every 30 minutes .

A: I would suggest to keep your statistics in a table (say my_log_table), in that case schedule would look something like this:
begin
    DBMS_SCHEDULER.CREATE_JOB (
         job_name             => 'keep_stats',
         job_type             => 'PLSQL_BLOCK',
         job_action           => 'begin insert into my_log_table (mUser,mCnt) (select osuser, count(osuser) as active_conn_count from v$session group by osuser  order by active_conn_count desc);commit;end;',
         start_date           => timestamp '2016-11-07 19:00:00',
         repeat_interval      => 'FREQ=MINUTELY;INTERVAL=30;',
         enabled              => TRUE);
end;

A: There are pretty much examples about dbms_scheduler. It's easy to submit a recurring job. But actually you do not need to do that! Oracle already stores tons of data about database performance, it will be easier and much more accurate to use these statistics.
Take a look at the active_session_history over here.
Hope this is what you are looking for.

A: repeat_interval => 'FREQ=HOURLY; BYMINUTE=0,30; BYSECOND=0 ', -

A: First, you create a schedule.
dbms_scheduler.create_schedule( schedule_name   => 'EVERY_1ST_SATURDAY'
                              , repeat_interval => 'FREQ=MONTHLY;INTERVAL=1;BYDAY=1 SAT;BYHOUR=2;BYMINUTE=0'
                              , start_date      => SYSTIMESTAMP
                              , comments        => '1st Saturday of the month 2am.'
                              );

Optionally, you create a program:
dbms_scheduler.create_program( program_name       => 'GATHER_SCHEMA_STATS'
                             , program_type        => 'STORED_PROCEDURE'
                             , program_action      => 'dbms_stats.GATHER_SCHEMA_STATS'
                             , number_of_arguments => 1
                             , enabled             => FALSE
                             , comments            => 'Gather schema''s stats (e.g. FRAMEWORK''s)'
                             );

... grant access to it:
GRANT execute ON sys.GATHER_SCHEMA_STATS TO framework;

... and parameters for it:
DBMS_SCHEDULER.define_program_argument ( 'GATHER_SCHEMA_STATS', 1 , 'ownname', 'VARCHAR2', 'FRAMEWORK' );

Secondly, you create a job:
DBMS_SCHEDULER.CREATE_JOB ( job_name      => 'FRAMEWORK.GATHER_FRAMEWORK_STATS_JOB1'
                          , program_name  => 'SYS.GATHER_SCHEMA_STATS'
                          , schedule_name => 'SYS.EVERY_1ST_SATURDAY'

I've been wanting to do some metal casting ever since I came across thisseries of books which teaches how to build ones own metalworking machinery. Metalworking is not something I've tried before and I don't really have a need for it (yet, perhaps), but the projects seem cool.
In order to build said machinery, you have to first learn how to cast metal and there's actually a fair amount of interest in this one out there. My favorite link isthis one andthis page in particular.
So I got some old broken down lawnmowers from a friend who was moving out of her house and I got an old toyota tranmission from someone off craigslist. Thankfully, I've got my big rocket stove to get the larger pieces hot enough to break them into more manageable bits.
Aluminum melts at 1220 degrees fahrenheit. That seems pretty hot, but it's actually not. If you take a wood fire and blow air on it, you can reach that. If it sounds like an airplane is about to take off, you're in good shape.
My furnace is made out of an old piece of wood stove venting.
The inner space was filled with a simple mix of concrete, fireclay, sand, and perlite. I filled the outer space with just perlite to act as insulation.
What do I use for fuel? Used motor oil of course. I had some "laying around" from the last couple times I changed the oil in my truck. The link above as well as this one prompted me to try it.
As always, click the pictures below for larger images.
Also notice the small fireplace rack looking thing in the upper right corner of the picture on the right. That's to give the flame some room to combust. It's just rebar bent and welded.
To lift the "crucible" (AKA the 5" tubing) I used pliers. While this works, I need to rig up a better way to maneuver the thing.
Here's setup again fully assembled. This one has the valve I used at first. The adjustment is very sensitive. I quickly go from not much action to full liftoff. I now have a metal ball valve. still very sensitive, but less sticky.
Also, note the first ingots.
Here are some shot of the foundry running.
