Discovering Jerusalem: Recent Archaeological Excavations in the Upper City
Nahman Avigad (Thomas Nelson: Nashville, 1983), 268 pp., $24.95
Not only is Jerusalem the most excavated city in the world, it is also the most fascinating to dig. Excavations in Jerusalem date back more than a century. The most productive projects, however, have occurred during the last 20 years.
Recent archaeological investigations have concentrated on the area adjacent to the Temple Mount, on the City of David (or Ophel), and on the Jewish Quarter of the Old City. The Temple Mount area and the City of David had been the subjects of earlier excavations, but the Jewish Quarter had never been dug before. For ten years, beginning in 1969, Nahman Avigad of the Hebrew University conducted a systematic and stratigraphic dig within the Jewish Quarter of Jerusalem's Old City. A distinguished scholar, Avigad is one of Israel's best-known epigraphists and archaeologists.
Avigad's dig was really a salvage project. After the Old City passed into Israeli hands during the Six-Day War of 1967, the Jewish Quarter was extensively reconstructed. In the rebuilding process, the Israeli authorities made room for archaeological investigation. Competing with the modern builders, Avigad and his team were always one step ahead of them.
Present plans call for incorporating into the new construction of the Jewish Quarter several of the architectural features, including the cardo, unearthed by the archaeologists. What better way to show continuity!

Q: SSH config: is there a way to distinguish between ssh and scp commands? I manage SSH connections to remote machines using a special ProxyCommand in my ssh_config file. Suffice to say it's structured like this:
Host my-target
    IdentityFile /path/to/temporary-key
    ProxyCommand /path/to/custom-script %n %r %p /path/to/temporary-key

As you can see, when I enter ssh me@my-target, SSH will read this file and execute the custom-script, passing it the hostname, user, (default) port, and a path to the private key it will attempt to use to authenticate to the server (which the custom script will generate in real time). This works just fine.
However, I would like for the custom-script to behave differently depending on whether it was invoked via ssh vs. scp. As far as I'm aware, there is no ssh_config token that stores this, but it seems like it should be possible in theory.
Is there a way to pass this information to my ProxyCommand?

Enjoy an adrenaline rush at Skyline Luge Sentosa which offers a fun outdoor experience for the whole family. Invented in New Zealand more than 29 years ago, the attraction features Southeast Asia's first-ever Luge.
The attraction offers two types of experience: Luge Ride and Skyride.
Whizz downhill on the Luge, a three-wheeled gravity thrill ride with a unique braking and steering system. Each ride can take anywhere from a few minutes for an adventurous rider to 7 minutes for those who like to take it a little slower. Safety helmets are provided and a safety briefing is conducted before each ride.
There are two 4m wide tracks for riders to take a leisurely cruise or race down. The 688m Dragon Trail boasts an elevated course which builds up excitement with its tight corners and numerous turns. The track is designed with themed landscaping and night lighting to provide a mystical backdrop for the night Luge so the fun doesn't stop even when the sun goes down.
The shorter, but no less exciting, 628m Jungle Trail provides more shelter with its mature trees and has wider corners and long straights. A 40m tunnel was recently added to offer riders more fun-filled action.
Board the 320m chairlift concept Skyride for a captivating panoramic bird's-eye view of Sentosa Island, Singapore city skyline and South China Sea. The ride in one direction takes about 7 minutes and each Skyride can accommodate up to four persons.

How the song GRACE changed my life
heather_haggertywoolslayer posted a topic in New York
Twelve years ago and one month to the day of the MSG U2 concert we will be at (July 30th)... my husband and I chose the name Grace for our daughter and this was all due to U2. Our daughter Grace, which means "a gift from God", was more than just that. U2's song GRACE told our story. Nine months earlier our first child and newly adopted daughter passed away. We had not even returned from China with her when she became heaven bound. As we worked through the pain, sadness, and dullness in our hearts we found some solace. We had hoped to go back to China after we healed but did not really believe it would ever happen... parenthood. So while away on our anniversary weekend we talked about the what if's. Don said, "I want you to really listen to the words to this U2 song, GRACE. I really believe this song tells our story and shows us what our child will be to us, our story, herself, and the world." OK maybe I added the last part. But the song is all about healing and wiping away the pain... of hope and triumph. My sweet beautiful daughter Grace has been that and so much more. That song gave us hope. That song kinda' put a little light on our road. That song gave us the courage we needed, that all would be OK. Thank you U2. My husband and I have been fans much longer than we have been married. But your live performance has been on our bucket list for many years. And now we get to celebrate 25 years together in NYC with U2. Thanks for all the graces your music sends out to each and every one of us.

A cold wave strikes Europe
Dozens have died in Poland, Italy, Greece, Turkey and Russia. The European Commission warns about the situation of many refugees.
Evangelical Focus
RTVE · EUROPE · 09 JANUARY 2017 · 19:10 CET
A man walks in the streets of Warsaw / AFP
A cold wave has frozen many European countries. Snow and low temperatures - up to -40ºC - have left dozens of lives lost in Poland, Italy, France, Turkey, Greece and Russia. Most have died of hypothermia, and there is a great concern for the homeless, specially refugees and beggars.
The icy air mass that keeps the Eastern Europe on alert, has its center in Romania and Hungary. The Black Sea is frozen, covered by a big layer of ice. The icebreakers have had to enter into the Danube, to rescue the ships that have been trapped.
BAD CONDITIONS FOR REFUGEES
Low temperatures are a serious threat to those sleeping outside or in refugee camps. The European Commission has warned that the situation is unsustainable in the Greek camps.
The cold has also caused the deaths of two people in the country, and those refugees who live in the bad weather or in places that are not ready for dealing with such extreme temperatures are very scared. "We are going to die in the tents, we do not have heating to spend the night", a refugee on the island of Lesbos said, where they are not prepared for such a hard winter.
"Sometimes, when the wind blows very hard, it pulls the tents and we cannot sleep", another refugee points out.
19 REFUGEES ABANDONED BY A TRAFFICKER
In Germany, a human trafficker left 19 refugees in a parking lot with a temperature of -20ºC. There were five children and fourteen adults among the refugees, and some of them showed symptoms of hypothermia.
The refugees did not have identification papers and told the police that they came from Syria, Iraq and Iran and had paid the traffickers about 800 euros per person. They began their journey to Germany in Italy, and the driver left the truck when he began to have problems with the engine.
POLAND: 10 HAVE DIED IN 24 HOURS
According to the authorities, at least 10 other people have died in Poland during the last 24 hours because of the low temperatures, which brings to 65 the number of deaths so far this winter.
The Polish police has called on people to remain alert and help those threatened with hypothermia, particularly the homeless.
The police is looking for them, so that they can take them to safer places: "We are patrolling in the areas where they usually stay, to transfer them to hospitals and ask them to go to shelters", a police spokesman explained.
In the last few hours, temperatures have dropped beloew -40ºC in some parts of the country. This has been the coldest weekend of this winter. The air pollution is also a problem in the main Polish cities. The boilers are at their highest capacity and it makes it difficult to breathe.
ITALY, FRANCE AND TURKEY
Italy, where eight people have died, is another of the most shaken countries. The snow has buried several places in the center of the country. Several schools are closed there and in the south of the country this Monday.
Snow and ice also hinder land and air traffic. Four people have died in France, when the bus in which they traveled skidded. And more than 600 flights has been cancelled in Istanbul.
RUSSIA: THE WORST WINTER IN 100 YEARS
In the European part of Russia, they have registered the lowest temperatures in a hundred years. Last Saturday night, the thermometers showed a minimum temperature of -35.9ºC in Klin, about 100 kilometers north of Moscow.
Classes have not been suspended, but students will be able to stay at home on Monday if their parents give their permission.
This Sunday, about 12,000 people were left unheated in the city of Krasnogorsk, outside Moscow, with temperatures of -25ºC.

Oliver: Christie doesn't think about residents living below poverty level
TRENTON – While Democratic leaders were glad to hear that Gov. Chris Christie will increase aid to schools and colleges,
By Minhaj.hassan • 02/26/13 6:14pm
TRENTON – While Democratic leaders were glad to hear that Gov. Chris Christie will increase aid to schools and colleges, and that he will expand Medicaid, they were disappointed that little was said in his annual budget address about earned income tax credits, and they questioned his insistence for an income tax cut while postponing rebates for the state's neediest citizens.
They said this is the beginning of the budget process and that the devil is in the details.
"He did not think about the people in this state who are earning below the poverty level," Speaker Sheila Oliver, (D-34), East Orange said at a press conference following the budget address today.
Assembly Majority Leader Lou Greenwald, (D-6), of Voorhees, questioned Christie's "platform speech," particularly the governor's calls for an income tax cut, when there aren't enough funds to carry out the rebate program.
"If you can't afford to fully fund the rebate, if you have to move almost $400 million in rebates to seniors from this year to next year, why would we be entertaining an income tax cut that overwhelmingly benefits 1 percent of the population?"
The re-election of President Obama last November, Greenwald said, showed that New Jerseyans "reject trickle-down economics."
And Budget Committee Chairman Vincent Prieto, (D-32), Secaucus, also questioned the move to postpone the rebates.
"The most vulnerable people in the New Jersey are not going to see any kind of relief," he said.
"We shouldn't be doing it on the back of the people who are most vulnerable and pushing off till next what you should be doing this year. Maybe if we had early-on hearings, we could have figured out how to not work with a gimmick."

Chaotic episodic associative memory
Junya Kitada, Yuko Osana, Masafumi Hagiwara
Department of Information and Computer Science
In this paper, we propose a chaotic episodic associative memory (CEAM). It can deal with complex episodes which have common terms. Temporal associative memory (TAM) and episodic associative memory (EAM) have been proposed as models for episodic memory. However these models cannot deal with association of plural episodes that have common terms because the stored common patterns cause superimposed patterns. The proposed CEAM is based on the conventional TAM and has connections in the input layer for autoassociation. It also employs chaotic neurons in a part of the input layer. Each scene of the episodes is memorized together with its own contextual information. That is, the training set including common terms is converted into a form which doesn't include any common terms. The chaotic neurons in the input layer corresponding to contextual information change their states by chaos. As a result, the contextual information changes dynamically, which enables the CEAM to recall plural episodes that have common terms. A series of computer simulations shows the effectiveness of the proposed model.

Femto Forum Steps Up Drive for Harmonised Network Integration
Plus forum membership expands as Acme Packet, AudioCodes, BT, Cellcom Israel Ltd, Cisco, Ericsson, GENBAND, Huawei, KTL, mobilkom austria, NewStep Networks, NXP Semiconductors, Samsung, SaskTel, SOFTBANK MOBILE, Telecom Italia and Vodafone sign up as members
London, UK – The Femto Forum, the independent industry association that supports femtocell deployment worldwide, has launched a programme to help harmonise the integration of femtocells into mobile core networks. Operator demand to launch femtocells quickly has led to the development of many different methods for integrating potentially millions of femtocells into the network core. Although this is not holding up the commercial deployment of femtocells, this programme will help unite these different approaches in the longer term and set the stage for the development of future standards.
At the Femto Forum's next plenary in March 2008, a variety of approaches to femtocell network integration will be put forward by members. Synergies between the approaches will be identified and the Femto Forum will provide a framework within which consensus can be built around similar approaches.
This will enable vendors to respond quickly to operator demands for interoperability, and will provide a platform from which members can advance the best approaches into the relevant standards bodies – the Femto Forum is not itself a standards making body.
The Forum has already agreed a reference architecture which will be used to provide a consistent basis for comparison between the different network integration options. A set of 'hot topics' – criteria that any integration method must meet in order to satisfy operator requirements – has also been agreed, including scalability and multi-vendor support.
"Femtocells have got off to a flying start and more deployments will take place in the near future but it is crucial that all the players in the market begin to plan together for the longer term. Operators have been vocal about their desire for a more unified approach to femtocell network integration as the scale of deployments increases. This programme represents the first time the femtocell community has come together to forge a future technology path through consensus," said Simon Saunders, Chairman of the Femto Forum. "This conjoined approach will not only encourage interoperability and increase economies of scale thereby helping keep costs low, but it will also help to support far-reaching new femtocell applications."
In other news the forum also welcomes new members who are already active in the working groups, these include: Acme Packet, AudioCodes, BT, Cellcom Israel Ltd, Cisco, Ericsson, GENBAND, Huawei, KTL, mobilkom austria, NewStep Networks, NXP Semiconductors, Samsung, SaskTel, SOFTBANK MOBILE, Telecom Italia and Vodafone. This brings the forum's membership to 59 companies which include many of the world's largest telecoms companies as well as the smaller innovative players in the femtocell sector.

Patients in any of the 50 states who test positive using Cue's COVID-19 tests can now use the Cue Health App to:
Consult virtually and on-demand with a healthcare professional about their test result;
Obtain an e-prescription - if medically indicated - for a medication to treat the virus; and
Get the medication delivered - usually within hours* - conveniently and safely at home or the medication will be made available for pickup at their local pharmacy.
Within a few weeks, Cue Health anticipates expanding this new service to patients who test positive on any COVID-19 test, including at-home antigen tests. The Cue Care antiviral delivery service costs between $79 and $99 and includes a televisit with a healthcare professional and delivery of a medication, the cost of which is currently covered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). According to HHS, early COVID-19 treatment can help improve patient outcomes, reduce hospitalization, and even save lives.
"Early diagnosis and treatment have shown to lead to better health outcomes, which is why we're proud to deliver timely testing and treatment all within the Cue Health App," said Ayub Khattak, Chairman and CEO of Cue Health. "Cue Care meets the need today for convenient delivery of COVID-19 treatment, and this capability will support our expanding pipeline of future diagnostics tests."
Current and future testing capabilities
While Cue Care is for COVID-19 patients today, it is expected to apply to a wide range of diagnostic tests in Cue's pipeline, particularly those for which specific treatments are available. For example, if an individual tests positive for flu, they will be able to use Cue Care to connect with a healthcare professional and, if eligible, get an antiviral for flu delivered to them on the same day, all within the Cue Health App. Cue Care is expected to handle other respiratory infections, such as strep throat and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), as well as sexually transmitted infections, such as chlamydia and gonorrhea.
Cue has the most accurate at-home COVID-19 test**, delivering results in 20 minutes to connected mobile devices. It detects all known COVID-19 variants of concern in people with or without symptoms. Cue is used in homes, in point-of-care settings, and by world-class organizations across the country, including Johns Hopkins Medicine, Mayo Clinic, Google, the National Basketball Association, and Major League Baseball, among many others.
* Antiviral medications prescribed by independent healthcare professionals through Cue Care are subject to availability and patient eligibility. Cue Health Inc. is not affiliated with any pharmaceutical manufacturer.
** #1 accuracy claim based on comparison of clinical study results submitted to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for Emergency Use Authorization for Cue and other molecular home tests.

Q: Configuring a project to launch with .NET Core 3.1 I am trying to use Visual Studio 2022 Community Edition to build and run a program that depends on .NET Core 3.1.
I have installed the correct version using dotnet-install which placed it into AppData\Local\Microsoft\dotnet.
When I run the program from Visual Studio, I get an error suggesting that it cannot find the installed .NET Core. ("To run this program, you must install .NET Core.")
Even if I run dotnet build followed by dotnet run --project MyProject -- which I assume sets correct PATH, etc. --- the same error happens.
How can I configure Visual Studio so that it can find the .NET Core installation?

A: For developing .NET Applications you require the SDK.
For running applications you need the .NET Runtime.
The SDK has the runtime bundled with it.
At the time of posting, these can be downloaded from Microsoft's website
https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet
As the website states though, .NET Core 3.1 is end of life. You should look to migrate to .NET 6 or .NET 7

A: I got it to work from the command line by creating a global.json file in the top level of my repo containing:
{ "sdk": { "version": "3.1.422" } }

then when I ran dotnet --version it confirmed that it was going to use .NET Core 3.1.422.
Subsequently I could use dotnet run --project MyProject --framework netcoreapp3.1.
I did not figure out how to do it from Visual Studio, which would be better because I could then more easily enter the debugger. So I will leave this marked unanswered.

HARVGREENBERG@GMAIL.COM BEHIND THE SCENE: Up in Bristol, Maine the Pemaquid Point Lighthouse stands steadfast as the protector of the rocky shoreline. I spent several days in the area shooting the lighthouse during several different types of light and from a multitiude of angles. I'm always amazed at how any subject can change in an instant, depending on perspective, lighting, composition, etc. It rained during the evening before my last day in the area which changed everything. Pools of water collected around the lighthouse. As I moved my tripod from one spot to another to another, I eventually found this amazing reflection in a tidal pool in the foreground. To me, this completed the composition. The tonality, hues and textures of the various elements combined to create an image worthy of this charming lighthouse.

Got a genre yet? Check! Maybe even a subgenre. And maybe even, if you're lucky, a sub-sub-genre. (If so, good for you guys. If I were a lame, unoriginal cliché—spouter, I'd say you've "carved a niche for yourself." But I'm not, I'm a creative genius, like you guys!).
Got your instruments? Check! The old standbys are all there. You've got your keyboard, your drum set, your guitar (electric, plus an acoustic, but that's only for concerts), your bass. You've even got one that's "out there," like the French horn or the glockenspiel.
You've got your Roles. Even though you haven't officially said the words "the Beatles," everyone knows who the John is and who the Paul is, and God have mercy on you if you ever mix those two up. And you've definitely got the Ringo. Everyone knows who the Ringo is, especially the Ringo himself.
Maybe you've even written a few songs. If so, great work, but honestly guys, you're getting a little ahead of yourselves and you should probably just cool it.
Because you're missing the most important part. Your name. And that's where I come in.
A little background on me. No, I can't sing. I'm actually tone-deaf. I can't play an instrument either. I have written a song once, for an extra-credit assignment in my high school geometry class. It was a spoof of "American Pie," but instead of "pie," it was "pi," you know, like 3.14. My teacher, who happened to be a diehard Don McLean fan, gave me a lecture on plagiarism and I failed. But anyway. My job is far more important than that. Like I said, I'm a creative genius. Just as God granted you the artistic talent to sing, write and violently thrash at your drums like you're shaking out the creases in a Hefty bag, He granted me the artistic talent to give prospective bands the perfect name that aligns with their vision, sound and public image.
I began to recognize my talent around the age of 10, when I found my dad's old vinyls in the attic. (My mom sold his record player in a yard sale the year before). The rest is, as they say, history. I became infatuated with the greats. Led Zeppelin. Pink Floyd. The Velvet Underground. The Rolling Stones. Queen. Fleetwood Mac. The aforementioned Beatles. These guys (plus Stevie Nicks, and whoever that other girl in Fleetwood Mac was) were heroes to me, man. Where the squares might have hung a cross or a painting of the Virgin Mary on the bedroom wall, I hung a poster of the Dark Side of the Moon cover.
The music? To be honest, I didn't care. What's that Queen song, the one about some kid's mom shooting someone and it sounds like a crappy opera score? Yeah, sorry, but that song sucks. And anyway, like I said, my mom had sold the record player, so I didn't even listen to the albums anyway. I would just stare at the covers, stare at the names, repeating them over and over again till they had settled permanently on my tongue.
Led Zeppelin. The Velvet Underground. The Rolling Stones. They were so beautiful, and yet, there was a certain darkness to them.
It wasn't long before I thought, I could do this.
I started keeping lists of potential band names. For a post-grunge Nirvana offshoot, I had The Faded Oranges. For a fiddle-playing all-female indie-folk group, The Paisley Skirts. For a nu-metal band who always angrily rejected the label "nu-metal," in interviews, it was Angels of Death. You know, basic stuff, nothing special. I guess you could say I was just playing around, experimenting, testing my limits. I started bringing my lists to school and worked on them during class. My grades suffered accordingly (that's why I needed that extra credit in geometry). My teachers yelled at me, said I was a good-for-nothing dreamer who would never make it anywhere in life. When I worked on the lists at home, my mom would freak out and say that band-naming was the art of the devil and would throw holy water on me. But when the muse strikes, you don't tell her no. True genius can never be suppressed.
Which brings me to today. Up until now, band-naming has been a side thing for me, something I did to unwind after a long day at the office. Now I'm ready to pursue my passion full-time. And I'm ready to help you discover that elusive perfect band name, the one that will make the difference between sex-drugs-hotel-room-destroying superstardom and playing weeknights at the local dive bar.
Not convinced yet? Let me point you to the rave reviews from some of my past clients. Heard of the rising Celtic fusion group St. Patrick's Breastplate? That's my doing. They called me "the brilliant, innovative, slightly twisted imagination this generation of musicians needs" in Rolling Stone. The Disney tween pop group The Minnie Mice said in Spin that I was to band-naming "like what Jackson Pollock was to modern painting, what Alfred Hitchcock was to film, what Albert Einstein was to, um, like, the universe or whatever."
So, yeah. I'm pretty good.
To get started, simply answer the following questionnaire:
What is your band's genre, subgenre, and, if applicable, sub-sub-genre?
What is the public image you would like your band to project?
Would you prefer a name that starts with "The" followed by a plural word (e.g. The Doors), a singular word (e.g. The Who) or simply a single made-up word (e.g. Nickelback)? Circle one.
What is the name of your first pet and your first street address?
Email me the answers to bandnamer@gmail.com. From there we will set up an initial consultation. Fees start at $200 a pop.
Let's make history together!
**I regret to inform you that I am unable to name single acts at this time. I am still in a legal dispute with Lady Gaga's lawyers for telling the press the truth, which is that I came up with the term "Gaga," after she consulted my services. She insists that she's never met me in her life. Hopefully we will resolve this soon.
Rock on, man!

By Rundassa Eshete*
When the Americans were getting ready to fight for their freedom, Britain was world's military and economic superpower. The thirteen American states were British's colony just like Oromia and other states are Tigreans colony today.
In addition to other colonies it had, Britain defeated France and took away more territories east of the Mississippi River as well as all of Canada and Spain surrendering its claim to Florida. Given the sheer magnitude of the British military and its empire, the actions taken by the Americans for independence was the most fascinating thing to think about.
How did the Americans able to achieve a victory over what was at the time the world's preeminent military power? What were the consequences of achieving independence? These and many other questions forces us to look into economic, legal, military, political, and social matters that helped the Americans during their liberation struggle from British.
Economic Causes of the Revolutionary War
As apart of the British empire, 13 colonial states of America were protected from foreign invasion by the British military. Just like todays Oromia under the Tigre colonial rule, America's 13 states adhered to the British rules and regulations that required the colonized states that;
1. All trade within the empire be conducted on ships which were constructed, owned and largely manned by British citizens. Certain enumerated goods whether exported or imported by the colonies had to be shipped through England regardless of the final port of destination.
2. Under the terms of the Proclamation of 1763 and the Quebec Act of 1774 the americans were not allowed to settle or to trade with the Indians without the permission of the British government.
3. The americans had pay high taxes during the war between Britain and France
With 10,000 standing army in North America, the largest military on the face of the earth during that time, Britain continue to acquire new territories and enforced its new land policy in the West. Forts were to be built which would become the new centers of trade with the Indians.
When the Sugar Act of 1764 past by the Britain against the Americans, the Americans opposed these rules initially in a variety of peaceful forms.
First, they attempted to exert some influence in parliament through petition and lobbying. However, it was the economic boycott that became by far the most effective means of altering the new British economic policies. In 1765 representatives from nine colonies met at the Stamp Act Congress in New York and organized a boycott of imported English goods. The boycott was so successful in reducing trade that English merchants lobbied Parliament for the repeal of the new taxes. In 1776 Parliament soon repealed both the Stamp and Sugar Acts.
In response to the Townshend Acts of 1767 a second major boycott started in 1768 in Boston and New York and subsequently spread to other cities leading Parliament in 1770 to repeal all of the Townshend duties except the one on tea. In addition, Parliament decided at the same time not to renew the Quartering Act.
The Americans appeared to have successfully overturned the new British post war tax agenda. However, Parliament had not given up what it believed to be its right to tax the colonies. On the same day it repealed the Stamp Act, Parliament passed the Declaratory Act stating the British government had the full power and authority to make laws governing the colonies in all cases whatsoever including taxation. Policies not principles had been overturned.
Three years after the repeal of the Townshend duties British policy was once again to emerge as an issue in the colonies. This time the American reaction was not peaceful. It all started when Parliament for the first time granted an exemption from the Navigation Acts.
In an effort to assist the financially troubled British East India Company Parliament passed the Tea Act of 1773, which allowed the company to ship tea directly to America. A small group of colonists/Americans responded by boarding three British ships in the Boston harbor and throwing overboard several hundred chests of tea owned by the East India Company
Once done Parliament then went on to pass the Quebec Act as a continuation of its policy of restricting the settlement of the West.
On September 5, 1774 American delegates conveyed to the British government a list of grievances that demanded the repeal of thirteen acts of Parliament. What happened then was a sequence of events that led to a significant increase in the degree of American resistance to British polices. The British government decided it was time to impose a military solution to the crisis. Boston was occupied by British troops. In April a military confrontation occurred at Lexington and Concord.
Within a month the delegates decided to fundamentally change the nature of their resistance to British policies. By then, the Americans purchased arms and munitions. To pay for all of this they established their own currency. In October as American forces closed in on Quebec the King of England in a speech to Parliament declared that the colonists having formed their own government were now fighting for their independence. It was to be only a matter of months before the Americans formally declared their indpendence.
It turned out that making a case for the avoidance of British taxes as a major incentive for independence proved difficult. The reason was that many of the taxes imposed were later repealed. The actual level of taxation appeared to be relatively modest. After all, the Americans soon after adopting the Constitution taxed themselves at far higher rates than the British had prior to the Revolution. Rather it seemed the incentive for independence might have been the avoidance of the British regulation of colonial trade. Unlike some of the new British taxes, the Navigation Acts had remained intact throughout this period.
The colonized Americans had both strengths and weaknesses in terms of undertaking a revolution. The American population was two million while the British population was six million. The hurdles confronting the Americans in achieving independence were indeed formidable. The British military had an array of advantages. With virtual control of the Atlantic its navy could attack anywhere along the American coast at will and would have borne logistical support for the army without much interference. A large core of experienced officers commanded a highly disciplined and well-drilled army in the large-unit tactics of eighteenth century European warfare. By these measures the American military would have great difficulty in defeating the British. Its navy was small. The American Army had relatively few officers proficient in large-unit military tactics. Lacking both the numbers and the discipline of its adversary the American army was unlikely to be able to meet the British army on equal terms on the battlefield.
But frustrated without a conclusive victory, the British altered their strategy. During 1777 a plan was devised to cut off New England from the rest of the colonies, contain the American Army, and then defeat it. An army was assembled in Canada under the command of General Burgoyne and then sent to and down along the Hudson River. It was to link up with an army sent from New York City. Unfortunately for the British the plan totally unraveled as in October Burgoyne's army was defeated at the battle of Saratoga and forced to surrender.
With the victory at Saratoga the military side of the war had improved considerably for the Americans. However, the financial situation was seriously deteriorating. The states to this point had made no voluntary payments to the American congress. At the same time the new currency which the Americans printed had to compete with a variety of other currencies for resources. Each American states were printing their own individual currencies to help finance expenditures. Moreover the British in an effort to destroy American funding system had undertaken a covert program of counterfeiting the American dollar. These dollars were printed and then distributed throughout the former colonies by the British army and agents loyal to the Crown.
Altogether this expansion of the nominal money supply in the colonies led to a rapid depreciation of American dollar. inflation enhanced by any negative impact upon output resulting from the disruption of markets along with the destruction of property and loss of able-bodied men. By the end of 1777 inflation had reduced the specie value to about twenty percent of what it had been when originally issued. This rapid decline in value was becoming a serious problem for America in that up to this point almost ninety percent of its revenue had been generated from currency emissions.
The British defeat at Saratoga had a profound impact upon the nature of the war. The French government still upset by their defeat by the British in the Seven Years War and encouraged by the American victory signed a treaty of alliance with the Americans in early 1778. Fearing a new war with France the British government sent a commission to negotiate a peace treaty with the Americans. The commission offered to repeal all of the legislation applying to the colonies passed since 1763. The Americans rejected the offer. The British response was to give up its efforts to suppress the rebellion in the North and in turn organize an invasion of the South. The new southern campaign began with the taking of the port of Savannah in December. Pursuing their southern strategy the British won major victories at Charleston and Camden during the spring and summer of 1780.
As the American military situation deteriorated in the South so did the financial circumstances. Inflation continued as American congress and the states dramatically increased the rate of issuance of their currencies. At the same time the British continued to pursue their policy of counterfeiting the dollar. In order to deal with inflation some states organized conventions for the purpose of establishing wage and price controls. With its currency rapidly depreciating in value the American Congress increasingly relied on funds from other sources such as state requisitions, domestic loans, and French loans of specie. As a last resort they authorized the army to confiscate property.
Fortunately for the Americans, the British military effort collapsed before the funding system of Congress. In a combined effort during the fall of 1781 French and American forces trapped the British southern army under the command of Cornwallis at Yorktown, Virginia. Under siege by superior forces the British army surrendered on October 19. The British government had now suffered not only the defeat of its northern strategy at Saratoga but also the defeat of its southern campaign at Yorktown. Following Yorktown, Britain suspended its offensive military operations against the Americans. The war was over. All that remained was the political maneuvering over the terms for peace.
The Revolutionary War officially concluded with the signing of the Treaty of Paris in 1783. Under the terms of the treaty the United States was granted independence and British troops were to evacuate all American territory. While commonly viewed by historians through the lens of political science, the Treaty of Paris was indeed a momentous economic achievement by the United States. The British ceded to the Americans all of the land east of the Mississippi River which they had taken from the French during the Seven Years War. The West was now available for settlement. To the extent the Revolutionary War had been undertaken by the Americans to avoid the costs of continued membership in the British Empire, the goal had been achieved. As an independent nation the United States was no longer subject to the regulations of the Navigation Acts. There was no longer to be any economic burden from British taxation.
THE FORMATION OF A NATIONAL GOVERNMENT
When you start a revolution you have to be prepared for the possibility you might win. This means being prepared to form a new government. When the Americans declared independence their experience of governing at a national level was indeed limited. In 1765 delegates from various colonies had met for about eighteen days at the Stamp Act Congress in New York to sort out a colonial response to the new stamp duties. Nearly a decade passed before delegates from colonies once again got together to discuss a colonial response to British policies. This time the discussions lasted seven weeks. The primary action taken at both meetings was an agreement to boycott trade with England. After having been in session only a month, delegates at the Second Continental Congress for the first time began to undertake actions usually associated with a national government. However, when the colonies were declared to be free and independent states Congress had yet to define its institutional relationship with the states.
The Articles of Confederation
Following the Declaration of Independence, Congress turned to deciding the political and economic powers it would be given as well as those granted to the states. After more than a year of debate among the delegates the allocation of powers was articulated in the Articles of Confederation. Only Congress would have the authority to declare war and conduct foreign affairs. It was not given the power to tax or regulate commerce. The expenses of Congress were to be made from a common treasury with funds supplied by the states. This revenue was to be generated from exercising the power granted to the states to determine their own internal taxes. It was not until November of 1777 that Congress approved the final draft of the Articles. It took over three years for the states to ratify the Articles. The primary reason for the delay was a dispute over control of land in the West as some states had claims while others did not. Those states with claims eventually agreed to cede them to Congress. The Articles were then ratified and put into effect on March 1, 1781. This was just a few months before the American victory at Yorktown. The process of institutional development had proved so difficult that the Americans fought almost the entire Revolutionary War with a government not sanctioned by the states.
Difficulties in the 1780s
The new national government that emerged from the Revolution confronted a host of issues during the 1780s. The first major one to be addressed by Congress was what to do with all of the land acquired in the West. Starting in 1784 Congress passed a series of land ordinances that provided for land surveys, sales of land to individuals, and the institutional foundation for the creation of new states. These ordinances opened the West for settlement. While this was a major accomplishment by Congress, other issues remained unresolved. Having repudiated its own currency and no power of taxation, Congress did not have an independent source of revenue to pay off its domestic and foreign debts incurred during the war. Since the Continental Army had been demobilized no protection was being provided for settlers in the West or against foreign invasion. Domestic trade was being increasingly disrupted during the 1780s as more states began to impose tariffs on goods from other states. Unable to resolve these and other issues Congress endorsed a proposed plan to hold a convention to meet in Philadelphia in May of 1787 to revise the Articles of Confederation.
Rather than amend the Articles, the delegates to the convention voted to replace them entirely with a new form of national government under the Constitution. There are of course many ways to assess the significance of this truly remarkable achievement. One is to view the Constitution as an economic document. Among other things the Constitution specifically addressed many of the economic problems that confronted Congress during and after the Revolutionary War. Drawing upon lessons learned in financing the war, no state under the Constitution would be allowed to coin money or issue bills of credit. Only the national government could coin money and regulate its value. Punishment was to be provided for counterfeiting. The problems associated with the states contributing to a common treasury under the Articles were overcome by giving the national government the coercive power of taxation. Part of the revenue was to be used to pay for the common defense of the United States. No longer would states be allowed to impose tariffs as they had done during the 1780s. The national government was now given the power to regulate both foreign and interstate commerce. As a result the nation was to become a common market. There is a general consensus among economic historians today that the economic significance of the ratification of the Constitution was to lay the institutional foundation for long run growth. From the point of view of the former colonists, however, it meant they had succeeded in transferring the power to tax and regulate commerce from Parliament to the new national government of the United States.

Irving Mayoral Ads Hit North Texas Airwaves
By Ken Kalthoff	• Published at 8:00 pm on May 11, 2011
Irving's incumbent mayor is buying the first network TV commercials in a municipal election that anyone can recall.
The 2011 mayoral campaign is breaking fundraising records -- the four candidates collected more than $414,000 at last report.
Irving is a city of more than 200,000 people, but its past mayoral races have only included about 10,000 voters, Mayor Herb Gears said.
The latest news from around North Texas.

He raised the most of the candidates this year -- more than $313,000.
His television ads reach the entire North Texas region, but very few of the viewers who see them can vote in Irving.
"A lot of that money is just wasted," said former Mayor Joe Putnam, one of Gears' challengers.
Controversy over an entertainment complex proposed beside the Irving Convention Center in Las Colinas has helped fill the Gears' war chest.
Gears said he has been working to complete the project approved by Irving voters in 2007.
"It's been totally maligned. It's several hundred million dollars in economic impact and over 2,000 jobs," Gears said.
About half of Gears' campaign money came from people connected with the project.
"Those investors have millions of dollars invested in this project, and I'm running against the leading opponent who's in court suing us, trying to kill the project," Gears said.
Putnam lost to Gears in 2005.
"There is desire on the part of citizens for change," Putnam said about his decision to run again.
Putnam spent a total of 19 years as an Irving councilman and mayor since his first successful election in 1973.
But Putnam's performance is a target of criticism in Gears' TV ads.
Putnam said his opposition to the entertainment complex centers on his belief that alcohol sales the city will allow there open the door to bars that are currently forbidden elsewhere in Irving.
"What the Convention Center needs is a convention center hotel rather than a honky-tonk next door," Putnam said.
Several media reports have questioned developer expenses paid by the city, and Putnam said he believes the complex is a bad deal for taxpayers.
"I'm quite proud that every time he opens his mouth and says he'll kill this project, I raise more money from the folks that are interested in having it done. So we're using those funds to get the message out," Gears said.
Also challenging Gears are former Councilwoman Beth Van Duyne and former Councilman Tom Spink.
Questions about Gears' handling of the entertainment complex are major campaign themes for them as well.
"I see someone who really does not take interest in what citizens what, but takes interest in what developers who are helping him want," Van Duyne said.
Van Duyne defeated Gears for a City Council seat in 2004 and held it until 2010.
Spink and Van Duyne support completing the entertainment complex, but with different arrangements.
"We've got to bring businesses here that pay wages that people can live on. And we do that with private funds. We don't to it by taxing people and paying government money," Spink said.
Gears said the city has won court challenges over entertainment complex financing thus far.
He takes credit for substantial reductions in crime and demolishing problem plagued apartment complexes.
All four mayoral candidates expect a runoff between the top two leaders in Saturday's election but they disagree on who will make it that far.

Scottish Swimming Statement on Zoom Event
Scottish Swimming sincerely apologises for the incident that happened this morning (Tuesday 14 April) during an organised Zoom event, where the aquatics community were invited to work out alongside our performance athletes.
At the end of last week we shared information about the workout across our social media platforms, asking those interested in participating to log into a link that was shared publicly this morning. Unfortunately the link was 'Zoom-bombed' with disturbing content shared with circa 300 people that had signed in to the event. The video was immediately shut down and the incident referred to the police and their cyber-crime unit. We apologise to everyone involved and deeply regret the outcome of today's event.
Scottish Swimming will continue to support and engage with our aquatic community during this time in isolation and have started a full review of the process undertaken today along with consideration of security measures across all platforms, in order to put in place measures to prevent any further incidents of this nature happening again.
At a time when the aquatics community was pulling together and supporting one another so positively, it is very upsetting to have a minority cause upset and distress during the lockdown.


Being a single parent isn't easy. It's certainly not the life you planned. When you dreamed about finding that significant other and having kids, you never thought you would be leading separate lives, shuttling your children back and forth. You never imagined you'd go without seeing your kids for days at a time. You didn't think you'd be facing them choosing one parent over the other, or that it might not be you they choose.
I'll never forget the first post-separation "date", just me and Big C. He had just turned 5. I had planned to take my little guy to his favourite restaurant for breakfast, maybe the library or shopping mall, anything just to spend time with just the two of us. But as soon as we'd finished breakfast, all he wanted to do was go back to his dad's.
Dad's apartment was new, with brand new toys, and they spent a lot of time playing video games together. His baby brother was with me most of the time, which was perfect in his mind, because baby brother wasn't much fun. He had his dad's undivided attention, so naturally all he wanted was to soak up every minute.
I was devastated. I felt like already he was choosing his dad over me, and that I was going to lose him.
It's so hard at times like this to hold your head up and smile. Yes, of course you want your children to be happy, to spend time with their other parent. You should feel lucky that their father is involved and wants to spend time with them (no matter how horribly they might still be treating you). But it's easy to get down, feel like you are the "lesser parent", especially when your child shows preference for the other parent, like they don't notice you. You feel like you're a failure, that no matter how hard you try, it never feels like "enough".
But remember, what a child needs is love and support. When they come home excited and happy and want to talk your ear off, smile and listen. When they march through the door angry and fighting back tears, offer a hug. When they yell and scream at you, or blame you for everything, tell them how much you love them, no matter what. They notice…even if it doesn't seem like they do.
Flash forward 11 years later. I'm having a bad day, feeling guilty because I kinda lost my temper with the kids, and was "angry cleaning" the house. After I had finished vacuuming, and took a little break, I came down the hall to find Big C just lounging on his bed. I asked what was wrong? He replied he was just sort of bored, sort of tired, just waiting for me to calm down and chill out. Yeah, they notice.
Feeling a fresh wave of guilt, I tried to lighten the mood by chuckling "I wonder how you boys will look back on your mom when you're all grown up". Fearing the worst answer.
But he didn't even miss a beat…"That you were the one who loved me and stood by me in my darkest times". I lost my breath, my eyes instantly welling up with tears. I smiled and choked out some kind of thanks, to which he apologized for making me cry.
Just keep showing up, being there, even when you can't always fix the problems. Just keep loving on them. They get it eventually. They notice.
