The buildings, most of which are of brick, are good, and many of them splendid. The streets are neat and spacious, many of them 100 feet wide. It has 18 churches, 3 Presbyterian, 1 Dutch Reformed, 2 Episcopal, 4 Baptist, 3 Methodist, 2 Roman Catholic, 1 Universalist, 1 African, and 1 Friends meeting house. There is also an Exchange building. Besides numerous charitable institutions, there are in the city the County Medical Society, 2 incorporated academies, one for males and the other for females, a museum, the Utica Library, the Mechanics' Association, which supports popular lectures, and the Apprentices' Library. There are 4 banks, with an aggregate capital of $900,000, besides a bank for savings, and an insurance company, with a capital of $200,000, and a mutual insurance company. The State Lunatic Asylum is located here, about a mile w. of the centre of the city. The Erie Canal, here widened to 70 feet, and 7 feet deep, passes through the central part of the city, and is crossed by a number of elevated and elegant bridges. The Chenango canal connects this place with Binghamton, in Broome co. The great Western railroad from Albany passes through it. There are also fine roads in various directions, n. and s., on which numerous stages run. Utica is in the midst of a' rich and highly cultivated country, and as might be expected, possesses an extensive trade. A culvert has been completed within the city from the canal to the river, at an expense of $100,000. In 1791 there were here only 3 or 4 poor houses. Utica was incorporated as a village in 1798 and as a city in 1830. There were in 1840, in the city 2 commercial and 3 commission houses in foreign trade, cap. $58,000; 188 retail stores, cap. $1,678,595; 3 lumber yards, cap. $41,000; 5 furnaces, cap. $59,000; value of machinery manufactured $166,555; 6 tanneries, cap. $103,000; 2 breweries, 1 flouring m., 2 grist m., 2 saw m., 1 paper fac, 6 printing offices, 6 weekly newspaper.; 61 brick and stone, and 30 wooden houses, cost $253,000.

Q: ImageView: "layout_width" can not set by custom method from xml In my app/build.gradle:
  kapt "com.android.databinding:compiler:3.0.1"
  dataBinding {
        enabled = true
  }

I have RecyclerView adapter. Here xml preview_offer_item.xml layout:
<layout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
    <data>
        <variable
            name="item"
            type="com.myproject.android.customer.api.model.Offer" />

    </data>

    <android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content">

        <ImageView
            android:id="@+id/imageViewPhoto"
            android:layout_width="@dimen/preview_image_height"
            android:layout_height="@dimen/preview_image_height"/>

    </android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>

</layout>

OK. It's work. Fine.
Now I want to calculate "android:layout_width" only in xml file:
So here change:
<layout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
    <data>
        <import type="com.myproject.android.customer.util.GuiUtil" />
        </data>
    <android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content">

        <ImageView
            android:id="@+id/imageViewPhoto"
            android:layout_width="@{GuiUtil.getTileWidth()}"
            android:layout_height="@dimen/preview_image_height"/>
</layout>

Here method GuiUtil.getTileWidth():
package com.myproject.android.customer.util;

public class GuiUtil {

    public static int getTileWidth() {
        return 200;
    }
}

In RecyclerView adapter NO setter method with annotation @BindingAdapter("android:layout_width").
I want to do all calculate only in XML file.
But I get error:
:app:transformDataBindingWithDataBindingMergeArtifactsForDebug UP-TO-DATE
:app:kaptDebugKotlin
e: java.lang.IllegalStateException: failed to analyze: android.databinding.tool.util.LoggedErrorException: Found data binding errors.
****/ data binding error ****msg:Cannot find the setter for attribute 'android:layout_width' with parameter type int on android.widget.ImageView.
file:\myproject\app\src\main\res\layout\preview_offer_item.xml
loc:26:36 - 26:57
****\ data binding error ****      org.jetbrains.kotlin.analyzer.AnalysisResult.throwIfError(AnalysisResult.kt:57)

How I can fix this without write setter method?

A: According to the discussion on Android issue tracker, it is impossible to set layout height or width with data binding without creating custom binding adapters:
https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=180666
You need to create a method to set the height like this :
@BindingAdapter("android:layout_width")
public static void setLayoutHeight(View view, int height) {
    LayoutParams layoutParams = view.getLayoutParams();
    layoutParams.height = height;
    view.setLayoutParams(layoutParams);
}

Or using XML:
android:layout_width="@{GuiUtil.getTileWidth() == 200 ? @dimen/yourDimension1 : @dimen/yourDimension2, default=wrap_content}"

It's not always about the hike or the bike, sometimes a drive can really be brewtiful, especially in Ireland.

A colorful recounting of Days 3-6 of my Scottish holiday to weave my travel adventures into the fabric of history.


Whether you call them trucks, big rigs, semis, 18-wheelers, or the actually correct "tractor-trailers," these behemoths of the road are among the most under-appreciated vehicles in existence.
Unless you're entirely self-sufficient (and if you're reading this, you're not), you depend on tractor-trailers for a whole lot more than you probably realize -- which is why advances in trucking technology will impact you far more than any fancy high-tech developments coming to your car. Best part is, you don't have to do a single thing to reap the benefits, ranging from safer roads to more money in your pocket.
A handful of players are in the race to roll out electric and autonomous trucks -- Elon Musk, for example, recently announced Tesla's plans to develop electric tractor-trailers that can drive themselves. Typical of Musk, his timeline was a bit vague, but let's take a look at some of the cool-as-hell truck concepts that are already hitting highways.
When you'll see one: As you can see from the camouflaged prototype shown here, it's already being tested on the road.
This is as clear a window into the future of trucking as there is.The Urban eTruck is an electric tractor capable of towing a trailer loaded with 26 tons of goods. It's not a long haul truck -- with a range of just over 120 miles, it's designed purely as an urban cargo carrier.
The fuel and emissions savings are self-evident, but the reduction of noise is potentially the most underrated aspect of this truck; close your eyes and imagine your city without any truck sounds and you'll get the idea. As Mercedes points out, this is a pre-emptive move against potential bans of internal combustion engines in heavily congested city centers -- which is distinctly possible in several European cities. Mercedes is testing the tech in a smaller truck first, and that one is already in the hands of customers on a trial basis. Look for this one to start making an impact by the end of the decade.
When you'll see one: The company's already taking deposits ahead of its official reveal in December 2016.
The Nikola One is driven by electric motors, but it's actually a hybrid that's more like a BMW i3 than a Tesla. The batteries are charged by a CNG-powered turbine, which means it can travel up to 1,200 miles without stopping, all while spitting out zero emissions. Unlike a plug-in EV that requires a lengthy charge, the Nikola is good to go after a quick CNG fill-up.
If the finished product delivers anywhere close to its promises on economy and emissions, it's pretty revolutionary. Big rigs are among the largest polluters on the road, so the more Nikola tractors out there, the better it is for air quality.
Also hugely important: the economics of running a vehicle like this. With greatly reduced running costs, manufacturers will be able to get their raw materials more cheaply, and retailers will spend less money getting the finished goods to the store. While some of those savings will no doubt be swallowed up in the name of corporate profit, some will wind up in your pocket by way of cheaper goods. You won't have to do a thing to reap the benefits of this truck and others like it.
When you'll see one: It's currently testing on public roads in Nevada.
The Freightliner features a semi-autonomous mode much more advanced than current Teslas, with an array of sensors and a dual-lens camera to monitor surrounding traffic and keep an eye out for obstacles -- all while identifying and observing posted road signs.
At a basic level, this means that the next generation of long-haulers will be right up there with today's most advanced luxury cars in terms of semi-autonomous control. Dig a little deeper, though, and this has the potential to reduce fatigue amongst truckers -- something that's a highly contentious issue today.
When you'll see one: The technologies in the FT 2025 will definitely make their way onto public roads, but this truck is just a testbed-slash-showcase.
The FT 2025 takes the autonomous system from the Freightliner above and builds on it. The interior is much more comfort-oriented, reflecting that there's even less of a need for a trucker's full attention. The vehicle itself is equipped with additional communication systems, in anticipation of the need to "talk" to other vehicles on the road about everything from conditions to lane changes. It's a fairly clear view of the direction in which trucks are headed, and it's representative of Mercedes' vision for the mid-term future of trucking.
When you'll see one: It's already been proven in trials, and will be a reality as soon as there are enough autonomous tractor trailers on the road.
This is an advanced method of organizing traffic wherein a lead vehicle is followed at extremely close range by a bunch of other vehicles. The concept is that by tailgating so closely, the following vehicles all save plenty in terms of fuel efficiency. The European Union funded quite a bit of research in this along with Volvo a few years back.
Aside from the obvious corporate fuel savings, this has the potential to clear up a lot of interstate traffic. When autonomous trucks stick close together in the right lane, you won't have to worry about getting stuck behind one truck passing another up a hill.
When you'll see one: You won't, sadly.
The Truck for Audi is a design-study collaboration between two guys who set out to design an ideal truck of the future -- to be built by Audi. The fundamental principles here are fantastic aerodynamics and fully autonomous driving.
While it might not represent an actual vehicle in the pipeline, it does shed some interesting light on the shape of trucks in the future. While a sleek, wind-cutting shape is the gold standard today, that won't always be the case, as this concept shows. When autonomous road trains come to pass (see above), this brick-like shape will actually start to make sense as a means of minimizing the required space between vehicles.
Aaron Miller is the Cars editor for Thrillist, and can be found on Twitter and Facebook. While he doesn't want an autonomous vehicle for himself, he welcomes the self-driving truck evolution.

Focus: Defective and runaway trailers can be the death of you
By Larry Penkava lpenkava@courier-tribune.com Twitter: @larrypenkavaCT
ASHEBORO — Tim Stevens drove tractor-trailers for a living and insisted that his rigs be the best and safest on the road.
He was killed because someone else did not take responsibility for their equipment.
On Nov. 14, 2014, Stevens was driving home from work on U.S. 311 in his "pride and joy," a bright red Chevy 1500 pickup. At the same time, a Dodge dually pickup pulling a gooseneck trailer loaded with an excavator and wood chipper was headed in the opposite direction.
The owner and the driver of the rig were not as careful about safety, knowing that the brakes on the trailer were inoperable but neglecting to fix them. Added to the mix was the fact that the driver had a suspended license, but he chose to drive anyway.
As the Dodge and trailer headed south on U.S. 311, traffic ahead was stopped while another vehicle waited to make a left-hand turn at the Sophia Post Office. The Dodge driver slammed on brakes, but the weight of the trailer, which had no brakes, kept it from stopping.
The driver crossed the centerline to avoid piling into the line of traffic, but Stevens' red Chevy was northbound coming directly at the Dodge. The two trucks collided head-on.
The Dodge driver, spared of serious injury, chose to leave the scene. Stevens had no choice, his injuries leaving him paralyzed. Seven weeks later, he was dead.
Defective trailers
This is but one example of how defective, sometimes runaway, trailers can be time bombs on the highway. On Aug. 28 of this year on N.C. 49 south of Asheboro, a tractor-trailer ran head-on into a runaway trailer that had become separated from the truck pulling it.
Although there were no injuries in the accident, one can only imagine the result had the trailer slammed into a passenger car. Nevertheless, damages to the tractor-trailer were estimated at $15,000.
The driver of the truck pulling the trailer was charged with failure to secure load.
N.C. Highway Patrol records show that a similar scenario took place in December 2015, but the result was much worse. In Pender County, northwest of Wilmington, a GMC Yukon was pulling a utility trailer north on N.C. 11 near the Cape Fear River bridge. The trailer came loose at the bridge and veered into the southbound lane.
A southbound logging truck struck the utility trailer, then careened into the bridge railing, rupturing the fuel tank and catching on fire. The collision caused the logs to come loose, striking still another truck.
The driver of the logging truck was killed. The driver of the Yukon was charged with failing to properly secure the trailer and misdemeanor death by motor vehicle.
According to statistics from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, between 1975 and 2015, there were 361 fatalities in North Carolina due to crashes involving a passenger vehicle with a trailing unit. Nationwide, the figure was 17,903.
The human cost
You can quote statistics, damage estimates and legal penalties (Stevens' offender was sentenced to a minimum of 33 months to a maximum of 49 months in prison), but the human toll from defective and runaway trailers can't be quantified. Grief can't be measured nor can broken lives be gauged.
You can only listen to the grieving family members and hope they find solace in memories. The Stevens family gathered into a meeting room at the courthouse immediately after the man convicted for his negligence in the accident was sentenced.
"I just don't feel like living anymore," said Janet Stevens, Tim's wife and soulmate. They had loved hiking and camping together. "Sometimes when I'm alone, there's this feeling of loneliness. The family feeling is not there. You don't know until you're in my situation, when you've lost a spouse."
"Dad was the backbone of our family," older daughter Danielle Stevens Williams saidf.
It was Danielle who spoke on behalf of the family during the sentencing hearing of the trial. She told the judge that her mother "was affected the most. After his death, she depends on us and meds to get by. She can't do the things she and my dad did together."
Williams added that she and her sister, Jennifer Stevens, also depended on their father for so much.
"Dad never met the man my sister will marry or they children they'll have," Williams said, referencing Jennifer's fiance, Robert Campbell. "My dad was my backbone. I could talk to him about things I couldn't talk to anyone else about.
"My family has been ruined," Danielle told the court. "I can't ask him a question I have. I can't knock on heaven's door to celebrate his birthday with him."
Looking at the defendant, Danielle said, "You can return home one day. My father won't."
Although Tim held on for seven weeks in his hospital room, he was unable to speak beyond the first day.
Janet recalled his words to her that first day in the hospital: "He said (when he saw the collision about to happen), 'Oh Lord, this is going to hurt.' "
Mark Sams, Tim's best friend from childhood, now lives in Ohio but comes to the Piedmont often on business. He was at Tim's bedside during the ordeal.
"The doctors said Tim was a quadriplegic and would have been from then on," Sams said. "He was mentally aware but couldn't move."
Mark talked about the man Tim was. "He did what he did for the family, Tim and Janet did for each other.
"You go through life with acquaintances but not many true friends. Tim was a true friend that I will never have back. That's the human side of the story."
Tim Stevens the man
"He was known as Mr. Fixit Man," Jennifer said. "He could fix anything."
Mark added, "Tim would do anything for anyone. He was very compassionate and trustworthy. He took care of his neighbors and would watch their places while they were on vacation."
"He was very dependable," Danielle said. "People called him if they needed something."
"He would stop whatever he was doing to help," Jennifer said. "He taught us daughters how to be self-supporting women."
Both sides of the spectrum
Jennifer's fiance, Robert, drives trailers on his job. He explained his routine before ever getting into the driver's seat: "I hook up the trailer, then do a walk-around to check the tires, the lights and wiring, make sure the load is secure and the brakes are working. Those steps were not done (with the defective trailer prior to the accident)."
Robert said that according to state law, the braking capacity of a trailer must be able to stop the weight of its load. Obviously, the faulty trailer that resulted in Tim's death failed to meet that guideline.
"His death should not have happened," Mark said. "The accident should have never happened. If anyone had taken responsibility (for the trailer's condition), the accident would never have happened.
"Tim knew trucks and brakes," Mark continued. "He required his tractor and trailer to be the best on the road. On the other side, the company (that owned the faulty trailer) did not take responsibility for the employees or the equipment.
"You have both sides of the spectrum. That's a nutshell summation of why we're here today."
Robert said that since Tim's death there has been "a palpable void for the family — for no reason whatsoever."
Pre-Departure Safety Checklist
The National Association of Trailer Manufacturers offers this safety checklist to use prior to departing:
* Before driving, make sure your vehicle maintenance and trailer maintenance are current. This is very important because towing puts additional stress on the tow vehicle.
* Check and correct tire pressure on the tow vehicle and trailer, including the spare tire.
* Make sure the wheel lug nuts/bolts on the tow vehicle and trailer are tightened to the correct torque.
* Be sure the hitch, coupler, drawbar and other equipment that connect the trailer and the tow vehicle are properly secured and adjusted.
* Make sure the safety chains are properly criss-crossed and connected, not touching the road but with enough slack to make turns.
* Check that the wiring is properly connected, not touching the road, but loose enough to make turns without disconnecting or damaging the wires.
* Make sure all running lights, brake lights, turn signals and hazard lights are working.
* Verify that the brakes on the tow vehicle and trailer are operating correctly.
* Ensure the breakaway system lanyard is connected to the tow vehicle but not to the safety chains or ball mount.
* Check that all items are securely fastened on and in the trailer.
* Be sure the trailer jack, tongue support and any attached stabilizers are raised and locked in place.
* Check load distribution to make sure the tow vehicle and trailer are properly balanced front to back and side to side.
* Check side- and rear-view mirrors to make sure you have good visibility.
* Check routes and restrictions on bridges and tunnels.
* Make sure you have wheel chocks and jack stands.
Safe towing of recreational vehicles
RV Life Magazine offers these four tips for safe RV towing:
* Match the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of your tow vehicle with the gross trailer weight (GTW) of the trailer you want to tow. If the GTW exceeds 50 percent of the GVWR, a trailer sway or even a wreck could happen.
* Invest in a weight distribution hitch system. It will spread trailer hitch weight evenly across all vehicle and trailer axles.
* Don't speed downhill.
— Maintain a safe speed on descents.
— Downshift into lower gears to slow down.
— Use brakes sparingly.
— If sway occurs, manually use the trailer brake controller to slow down. Trying to brake with your tow vehicle usually makes the problem worse.
* Watch weather reports. Here's what to do in high winds:
— If the trailer starts feeling unsteady, do not apply the brakes.
— Take your foot off the accelerator.
— Keep a firm grip on the steering wheel.
— Steer straight until you're through the wind.

Census of Ireland 1901
Household Return (Form A)
In 1901, a Celia Boyle(57), farmer, was 'Head of the Family' and a widow. She lived with her four children in the townland of Cregboy.
Celia had three sons John(25), Martin(10) and Michael(9) with one daughter, Maggie(18). They all were born in County Galway and none were married. Celia was unable to read or write but spoke both Irish and English. John, a 'farmer's son', could only read but spoke both Irish and English. Maggie, a 'farmer's daughter', could read and write and spoke both Irish and English. Both Martin and Michael were 'Scholar's' and could read, write and speak both Irish and English.
Enumerator's abstract (Form N)
The second page of this particular return that lists the Boyle house is missing. It described in detail the family's status regarding type of dwelling house, no. of families, no. of persons and religious profession of individuals.
House and Building Return (Form B1) & Out-Offices and Farm-Steadings Return (Form B2)
Celia owns the house and farming land that she and the family lived on. The house which was 2nd class, was a stone or brick cottage with a thatched roof. It had three front windows, with three rooms occupied. On the farm there were two out-house buildings.
The second page of this particular return that lists the Boyle's house in Form B2 (Out-Offices and Farm-Steadings Returns) is missing. It describes the farm buildings in detail.
The 1901 Irish Census took place the night of Sunday, March 31st. The returns were filled out. As, Celia could not read or write 'Form A' was signed by Celia with an 'X' for 'her mark'. It was witnessed, signed and collected by local constable John Reilly on April 5th.
In 1911, Celia Boyle(70), a farmer, was 'Head of the Family' and a widow. She lived with her two children in the townland of Cregboy. Celia had one son Patrick(29) and one daughter, Margaret(26). They were born in County Galway and none were married. Celia was unable to read or write but spoke Irish only. Patrick, a 'farmer's son', could read and write and spoke both Irish and English. Margaret, a 'farmer's daughter', could read and write and spoke both Irish and English.
There are three new columns in the 1911 census, 'Years Married', 'Children Born' and 'Children Living'. It is stated that there are four children born and four living to Celia.
The Boyle family were the only family living in the house, there was one male and two females and all are of the Roman Catholic faith.
Celia owned the 2nd class house. It was stone or brick cottage with a thatched roof. It had three front windows and two rooms occupied. On the farm, there are one out-house building, a piggery.
The 1911 Irish Census took place the night of Sunday, April 2nd and the forms were filled out by Celia as noted by her signature. The return was witnessed and collected by local constable Thomas Fitzgerald on April 8th.
The next census in Ireland was not taken until 1926. It was not taken in 1921 as Ireland was in the midst the 'War of Independence' against Britain. By 1926 Ireland was a Free State and the government was able to take their first census. The due date for the release of the 1926 Census is January 1st, 2027 as there is a 100 year privacy law in Ireland. There have been many attempts to have an earlier release date, but to no avail yet.

Questions that can arise…
Why can ages by out by years from the 1901 census to the 1911?
Why is there no record of female occupation in some cases?
In the 1911, if a woman is a widow and head of the household why can I not see how many children she had?
Were the houses actually numbered?

Amelia Earhart before her last flight (http://acepilots.com/earhart2.html)
There are many definitions for the word Hero. Some people think of Superman. Yet, only one is realistic and represents courage, inspiration, perseverance, and faith. A great definition of a 'Hero' is - hero can be an ordinary person who does extraordinary things." A hero does not have to be superman.
Amelia Earhart, my hero, has all these important characteristics. She was born in the little town of Atchison, Kansas, on July 24th, 1897. On December 28th, 1920, she took her first plane ride at the age of 23. Amelia was about 40 years old in 1937, when she died. She disappeared on the route to Howland Island (halfway between Hawaii and Australia), yet with a short life, she still managed to break mankind records, write bestseller books and inspire many people.
Amelia on her Biplane (http://www.fark.com/comments/3710525/On-this-date-in-1937-Amelia-Earhart-nears-completion-of-her-record-flight-arou)
Amelia Earhart has an amazing amount of courage and perseverance to take many risks. She wrote "Women must try to do things as men have tried." What was it that she did to become so heroic? It's not just that she was the first woman to fly across the Atlantic Ocean, but she was the first to fly across the Atlantic Ocean solo!
Amelia Earhart is meaningful to me very much. She flew her plane just a little after women in the USA were allowed to vote, go to combat, fly planes and other rights. She made a big difference in the world! I would like to be like Amelia Earhart because she had an influence on herself and others to try things that haven't been done before.
"You don't have to be bitten by a radioactive spider or hit by a comet to be a super hero." --Dylan Sprouse. I believe Amelia Earhart was not just an inspiration or just a random fact in time, but was a pure hero who deserves her place in history.

For project summaries and local contact information on the FY18 municipal planning grants, visit the Agency of Commerce and Community Development website at accd.vermont.gov.
The Vermont Department of Housing and Community Development recently announced its fiscal year 2018 municipal planning grant recipients.
"As Vermont continues to grow its economy, maintain a high quality of life and attract new people and business to the state, Municipal Planning Grants help communities accelerate local solutions, energize downtowns, and remove barriers to much-needed housing," said Department of Housing and Community Development Commissioner Katie Buckley in a Dec. 5 news release.
Windham County was well represented in this year's round of grants. Of the $464,920 awarded to 37 municipalities across the state, just over $50,000 of it will come to area towns.
Mitigating flooding was a common denominator in many county projects.
Halifax's $8,000 grant will help town officials develop a plan to reduce the effects of flooding on private property and public infrastructure.
In Whitingham, the town will use their $8,770 to "reduce the effects of extreme weather events by strengthening the community's regulations regarding development near rivers, streams, and floodplains," says the news release.
Newfane's Planning Commissioners are revising the Town Plan, and their $8,000 award will help them design a plan to restore the vitality of the town's villages while protecting them from future floods.
Rockingham administrators are also revising their Town Plan, and their $12,453 grant will identify and reduce flood risks and develop new policies and strategies to support economic development and increase housing options.
In Vernon, the $20,000 grant will fund continued work on recently-designated village center. Unlike many rural towns, Vernon didn't grow around a central square, and the Planning Commission is working to develop one.
Planning Commission member Martin Langeveld told The Commons the work is still in early stages.
"The first steps will just be to write a Request for Qualifications and circulating that [to] attract proposals from design consultants — typically landscape/urban planning outfits. We will interview some of those and choose a consultant," he said.

Fifth Circuit to Hear Long-Overdue Constitutional Challenge to Universal Service Fund
Daniel Lyons
Each quarter, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) determines the Universal Service Fund (USF) surcharge that is placed on customers' telecommunications bills. The surcharge is calculated by estimating the cost of the agency's various universal service programs, divided by the industry's anticipated telecommunications revenue. As those programs have grown, and that revenue has shrunk, the surcharge has risen from 3 percent in 1998 to a whopping 33 percent in 2021. The USF surcharge is a tax in all but name, to fund an $8 billion program that operates outside the federal budget and is administered by a private subsidiary of an industry trade group with little direct oversight from Congress. On December 5, the US Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit will hear arguments about whether this arrangement is constitutional. In Consumers' Research v. FCC, petitioners argue that Section 254 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996, which establishes the modern universal service program, is an unconstitutional delegation of legislative authority to the FCC. They also argue that the agency's decision to outsource management of the program to the Universal Service Administrative Company (USAC) is an unconstitutional delegation of power to a private entity. If successful, the suit will rein in an increasingly unstable program and prompt Congress to put its universal service initiatives on firmer legal ground with more accountability.
[Daniel Lyons is a nonresident senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, where he focuses on telecommunications and internet regulation. He is also the associate dean of academic affairs and a professor of law at Boston College Law School, where he teaches telecommunications, administrative, and cyber law, among other courses.]

Bojan Bogdanovic reportedly rejects European extension
By Net Income Sep 29, 2013, 11:45pm EDT
Share All sharing options for: Bojan Bogdanovic reportedly rejects European extension
Bojan Bogdanovic/Facebook
In what Turkish media described as "shocking" news, Bojan Bogdanovic has reportedly rejected a contract extension offered by Fenerbahce. If true, it means the 6'8" swingman will be a free agent next summer.
Last week, Bogdanovic said he will play in Brooklyn but added that he didn't know when. Fener, who's gone on a spending spree this summer and hired Europe's top coach, has wanted to extend him for several years. The Istanbul club also wanted Bogdanovic to accept the same onerous $2 million buyout that kept him in Europe this season. However, Bogdanovic and his agent want a reduced buyout so he can leave for the NBA if he chooses. Fener was reluctant to reduce the buyout but reportedly offered more money, which he has now rejected.
Although Bogdanovic could entertain offers from other Euroleague teams, he's only talked about the NBA when discussing his next move. Just last week, he was named to the first team All-Eurobasket, the only player without NBA experience voted to the team. He will play against the Thunder Saturday in an exhibition game.

Q: How to get rid of "null" node in payload (fulfillment response)? I'm using dialogflow-fulfillment for fulfillment. I am trying to send a payload using the following function;
function getName(agent) {
        let options = {
          "options": [
                {
                    "id": "make_reservation",
                    "text": "Reservations",
                    "payload": "make_reservation"
                  }
            ]
        };

        let newPayload = new Payload('PLATFORM_UNSPECIFIED', options);
        agent.add('added by webhook');
        agent.add(newPayload);
}

But I'm getting a null node in the fulfillment response.
{
  "payload": {
    "null": {
      "options": [
        {
          "id": "make_reservation",
          "text": "Reservations",
          "payload": "make_reservation"
        }
      ]
    }
  },
  "outputContexts": []
}

In the place of the  null node, I need the options node. Any idea how to do that?
Thanks

A: After doing some more search, I got the answer! Payload takes three parameters.
new Payload(platform, payload, options);
where the default options are {sendAsMessage: false, rawPayload: false}. Since rawPayload is false, payload will be nested on the platform name. In my case platform was PLATFORM_UNSPECIFIED, that's why it was nested on a null node.
So the solution is to set rawPayload to true.
let newPayload = new Payload('PLATFORM_UNSPECIFIED', options, {rawPayload: true});

To follow the evolution of football equipment
Why does Real Madrid play with white shirts?
Crowned the greatest club of the 20th century, Real Madrid is a dream come true all over the world. Since its creation in 1902, Real Madrid has seen many legends of football history pass through its doors and has amassed the most prestigious trophies in the world to become the greatest club of the 20th century according to FIFA.
The Merengue shirt is often at the top of the podium of the best-selling jerseys in the world. Yet few people know the true origin of this immaculate shirt. But why does Real Madrid play with white shirts?
READL ALSO ABOUT: FAKE FOOTBALL SHIRT: HOW TO RECOGNIZE?
WHY DOES REAL MADRID PLAY IN WHITE?
But if there were to be just one link between these great names of yesterday and today, the white Merengue shirt would certainly be the most appropriate. The Real Madrid shirt has become one of the most iconic shirts in football, yet it has a rather incredible history that we wanted to tell you about today.
The Real Madrid shirt
Unless you are a great connoisseur of football history or Real Madrid, you may not be very familiar with the Corinthians club from London. However, it is to this English club that Real Madrid still owes its white shirt today. Let's go back in time to the creation of the Madrid Football Club, which would become Real Madrid Football Club a few years later (in 1920 to be precise) after receiving the royal anointment from Alfonso XIII, King of Spain.
The year was 1902 and at that time it was the Corinthians of London who was the dream of European football. Known for their elegance and sportsmanship, the English club became the model for Madrid's leaders, and the white shirt that the London Corinthians wore became that of Real Madrid!
The Real Madrid jersey 2021-2022
Accompanied by white shorts and, above all, blue or black socks in the early years, the RMCF's kit became entirely white from 1955 onwards, although from 1980 onwards and with the advent of equipment manufacturers, slight touches of color appeared in addition to the iconic white. Although in recent seasons there have been different shades, the most used is purple, which is one of the club's official colors and pays tribute to the Castilian region.
NO MATTER WHO MAKES THE TEAM, REAL STAYS WHITE
117 years after its first use, the white of the Real Madrid shirt has become as symbolic as the black and red stripes on the AC Milan shirt or the Blaugrana stripes on the Barcelona shirt. Although Hummel and Kelme had the honor of designing the white shirt for a few years (Hummel 1985-1994 and Kelme 1994-1998), it is Adidas that has been at the heart of the thinking for more than 20 years for what is its biggest contract in the world, worth almost 120 million Euros per season.
Regularly on the top step of the podium in terms of the number of jerseys sold each year, the Real Madrid shirt maintains its power of attraction among football fans season after season. You will now know that behind this white jersey, which may seem so simple at first glance, lies the surprising Corinthians club from London.

10 Ways Women Ruin the Gym Quotes
"A woman who was 20 pounds overweight once told me she was worried about working out because she didn't want to get 'too bulky'. I told her it was too late for that and she took that as a compliment. Touché, madam. Touché."
Dick Masterson
10 Ways Women Ruin the Gym
"Also ladies, working out won't make you bulky. It won't make you thicker or heavier or make your big ass bigger. Buying a puppy, however, and shoveling healthy snacks down your craw, and gossiping with your friends about celebrities all day will. Cigarettes come with a warning label. Why doesn't American Idol?
Warning: if you're a woman, this program will make you fatter and more annoying."
"Culture is no excuse for fatness. Some women think it's part of their culture to look like Grimace. I call bullsh*t. No culture — at least no culture with access to Bally's — has ever valued fatness.
There's a big difference between a nice ass and thighs that look like the surface of a golf ball — and a gut that looks like a broken tube of croissant dough. I couldn't decide which of those was funnier."
"If women really want a gadget to help them work out, how about a treadmill that pats them on the back as they run their fat ass skinny. That's called a positive reinforcement. It works for bl*wjobs and getting texts from me. It would probably work at the gym too."
"In the case of Curves: A Gym for Fatso's, they can sell a billion memberships for a health club that holds twelve because not one of those panting wildebeests is ever going to show up. Have you ever seen a Curves? My bedroom is bigger than your average Curves. And more women have worked out in it."
"Men are better than women at the gym because men actually go to the gym and women don't."
"Men don't dress up. The gym is not a fashion show. It's a place to go to get in shape, stay healthy, and look at yourself in the mirror without losing Man Points."
"Men don't have to exercise. It's a commonly held fact that men don't have to be fit to be attractive. In fact, other than the enjoyment of our raw masculine power, there's no reason for a man to work out ever. Men make the money and men make the funny. That's all we need to get a whole screw of girls lined up around the block — for purposes of banging.
Women, on the other hand, have to work out. If women don't look good, they don't make as much money, they aren't funny at all, and no one will come along to bail them out with their d*ck.
Men are better than women at the gym for simple reason that we don't have to be there."
"Men don't wear cute outfits to the gym. If it were legal, I would work out completely naked. F*ck clothes. Clothes are just an extra bullsh*t step between me and getting the job done. Women, on the other hand, need $200 of lycra to set foot in the door. Nine times out of ten, that's their only reason for going to the gym in the first place; to show off some new Lulu Lemon mess. It's like a senior prom to them: new outfits, sh*tty music, and plenty of excuses not to put out afterward."
"Remember in Con Air how Nicolas Cage didn't even get access to a proper gym because he was considered a dangerous military weapon? He still found a way to stay in shape with a push-up montage. That was awesome."
"The best looking women in history lived in the 60's and starred in spy movies opposite Sean Connery. Then in the 80's, 'low calories' were invented and every woman in the free world turned into a hippopotamus. That trend continues because women suck at going to the gym."
"The first thing I think when I meet a new woman is, 'I wonder how often this broad goes to the gym.' The answer I arrive at each time is, 'Not enough.'"
"To make it in the health club game, you have to sell more memberships than you have room for. Imagine that you own a house with three rooms. In order to run that house like a health club, you would have to rent those three rooms to twenty people and hope that all of them don't show up every Saturday night. If they did, you'd be f*cked. You only have enough room for three of them and the other 17 would have to sleep in the yard I guess. If, however, one or two or even three came everyday, you'd make a tidy sum."
"When I compare women to trainable dogs, I'm not saying anything that they themselves aren't. Women reward themselves like golden retrievers when they do something right. If a woman runs a mile, she gives herself a Snickers. If she does some butt exercises, she calls her mom. You know how men reward themselves for going to the gym? By going to the gym again."
Products by Dick Masterson
"Women also suck at the gym because they need more toys there than a day care center. Exercise balls, exercise rolls, exercise bagels; unless it cost more than 50 bucks, women won't workout with it.
Cavemen were the most physically fit specimens of human beings in history. All they had was heavy shit and distances to run. That's all any man needs to exercise. All that goofy shit is a distraction from secretly wanting to be a big flat slob."
"Women are too goddamn selfish to show their bodies off even though it doesn't cost them anything. Seriously, what's the problem with showing your boobs off every now and then? It's free. I make witty comments all the time for free because I know everyone enjoys it. It's the same exact thing."
"You need to start believing you are the f*cking man. Even if you're not the man yet.
Even before I was world champion, I knew I was gonna be the man."
More quotes by Andrew Tate
"Women barely break a sweat when they're at the gym. Probably because they're worried about smelling like shit on the way home in case a cute policeman pulls them over. In order to get results, however, you've got to feel the burn."
"Women do as much working out at the gym as they do praying in church. Most of their time there is spent in a big social jerk off session full of bitching and gossip. I was at the gym last week and this girl on a stationary bike was complaining about her boyfriend while texting for about forty minutes. Not once did her miles per hour exceed her texts per hour."
"Women don't understand how the body works. For example, women: you have to arch your f*cking back if you want it doggy style or else it doesn't work. Get a clue."
"You know how you can tell if a woman's just been to the gym? Candy bars, potato chips, french fries, milk shakes, and being a big fat slob."
"You know how you can tell if a woman's just been to the gym? She's got a candy bar crammed in her mouth and one in her pocket for later."
"You know how you can tell if a woman's just been to the gym? She's got a feedbag full of potato chips strapped to her face."
"You know why most gyms don't allow you to wear jeans while you work out? It's not because of men, or me specifically who has been turned away three times for trying. It's because if women were allowed to wear jeans to the gym, they'd also wear high heels and tube tops that matched and then stand around waiting for someone to buy them a drink."
Dick Masterson's 2009 Man Challenge Quotes
"Animals are just like computers. They have no soul and no mystical sense of anything beyond what goes in their stomachs. 'Animal rights' is a profitable misnomer invented by women just like every other 'humanitarian' movement that all follow one simple theme: B*tches will get uncomfortable if they can't feel the end of their leash."
Dick Masterson's 2009 Man Challenge
"Animals are meant to be killed by human men. It doesn't matter if you're going to eat them or stuff them full of candy and play a practical man-joke on kids."
"As I explained last year, new year's resolutions are for ladies. They're for people who get as much personal satisfaction out of intending to better themselves than actually doing it."
"I am 100% right when I say women love being told their place in life — especially hot women."
"In all seriousness, always pay for a girl's abortion. Or make sure you physically see the receipt."
"Money is an aphrodisiac. Paying for drinks, paying for movie tickets, paying for any bullsh*t no matter how cheap it is will get a lady's humper pumping. That's a guarantee."
"Stop dating chicks that aren't going to f*ck you!"
"Happy 69th birthday to Ted Bundy, you are a great person."

What is a Corporation Actually For?
What is the purpose of a corporation? That's a question we explore frequently in CEO Daily. And now our friends at EY have offered up some interesting data on the answer.
Let's leave aside that last option for a moment. While it sounds lofty, I'm not entirely sure what it means, and I wonder how well it traveled across cultural borders. It seemed to resonate most in the U.S. (where 12% chose it), Japan (10%) and South Africa (11%), and scored worst in China (less than 1%). But in every country, it was an also-ran.
The stakeholder approach, on the other hand, was the hands-down favorite in China (67%) and Brazil (60%), and did reasonably well in Japan (37%). In the U.S., it was chosen by 27% of respondents.
At the other end of the capitalist spectrum, shareholder value came out strongest, not in the U.S. (16%), but in Singapore (28%), Hong Kong (25%), the U.K. (21%), and, surprisingly, France (21%). Who knew?
Employees fared best in Australia (25%), Hong Kong (22%), and India (22%). They fared dismally in the U.S. (4%).
So what do American executives see as the main purpose of their organizations? Bringing value to customers, which was chosen by 41% of U.S. respondents, more than in any other country except South Africa (45%) and India (41%).
These "forced choice" survey questions are a bit artificial, since every company must at some level satisfy shareholders, customers, employees and society, or risk going out of business. But it's an interesting exercise in priorities. And it's worth pointing out that the Milton Friedman view of shareholder primacy came out on top in only one country: Singapore. The current system may be tilted toward shareholders, but if so, the people running businesses don't acknowledge it.
How would you answer the question? I'm eager to hear from CEO Daily readers on this one.

Serbian Embassy in Canberra
by admin	on September 24, 2020 September 25, 2020
Authors: Riste Dobrijević and Milena Zindović
Competition proposal for the Embassy of Republic of Serbia in Canberra, Australia.
The design is based on program requirements and instructions given through the competition call for the conceptual design for construction f the complex of diplomatic and consular representative buildings for the Republic of Serbia in Canberra.
Complex consists of two buildings. The larger building which houses the embassy and consulat, is positioned in parallel with the street, with the consular part facing the Bill Crescent street. The smaller building is the Ambassador's Residence, positioned in the back of the plot. The buildings are connected via a plaza with fountain, which can also host outside gatherings and receptions.
The natural slop of the terrain is used to create a terraced landscaping solution and create a series of public, semi-public and private levels. The terrain thus consists of a series of plateaus, each with a characteristic function and connection with buildings.
Plateau in front of the consulat is elevated in relation to the entrance level and visible from the street, and therefore has the character of public and representative. The flagpoles are positioned here, as well as a seating area for consulat visitors. It allows views only to the front facade of the Embassy, while the other parts of the complex remain hidden from direct sight.
The buildings are connected on the level of the representative part of the Embassy, which corresponds to the ground-floor level of the Residence, via a plateau in the heart of the complex. It features a lawn, a simple fountain and open space to host gatherings and celebrations outside.
Underneath the Residency, there is a plateau with a pool and trees, with a more private character, while the lowest part of the terrain is used to house the sports amenities. The whole complex is visible from the lower levels, as well as the specific relation of the buildings. Plateaus are mutually connected with stairs and paths, while the greenery dominates as the basic of the complex landscaping.
Two entrances are envisioned from the Bill Crescent street, one pedestrian and one vehicular. The pedestrian entrance leads to the consulat and the plateau in front. From the vehicular entrance a ramp descends into the underground garage next to the Embassy and the parking canopy at the Residency. Additional parking spaces are available along the internal street/ramp.

Too little, too late? Blues activate Jaroslav Halak from injured reserve
By Joe YerdonMar 8, 2011, 1:24 PM EST
The St. Louis Blues have been in a bit of a bad way of late. Despite their shootout win over Columbus last night in which Jackets goalie Steve Mason couldn't keep his five hole from being scored upon, the Blues have done rather miserably. Without Jaroslav Halk in goal, times have been rough but today, the Blues activated Halak off of injured reserve to try and help things get steadier in goal. Ben Bishop was sent back to the AHL to make room for Halak.
When we last saw Halak in goal, it was Valentine's Day and the Blues had just beaten Vancouver and spirits were sky high about the Blues potentially making a run at the playoffs. Since then with the duo of Bishop and Ty Conklin the Blues have gone 4-7-0 and fallen back to 13th in the Western Conference, 10 points behind eighth place Los Angeles.
The road for St. Louis to make a run at the playoffs is a tough one. James Mirtle of the Globe and Mail tracks teams in their quest to reach the playoffs. In the Western Conference, you generally need to have a shot of reaching the postseason by getting 96 points. For the Blues to get there, they'll need to go 14-1-1 in their final 16 games. There's no room for error for the Blues and they've been beset by nothing but errors of late.
If Halak can jump back in the lineup and get the Blues to get that hot to close out the year, the Halak signs that were so popular in Montreal last year for the playoffs will be out in force in St. Louis. Realistically it seems highly unlikely that such a run is in the Blues especially with a schedule that sees them still facing Detroit and Minnesota twice and one final brutal swing on the west coast to face the Kings, Ducks, Sharks, and Coyotes.
