1859 the two last reside in Monroe county.
Mr. CARROTHERS has served as sheriff of this county two terms; he
has also served as deputy. The
following history of Mr. CARROTHERS antecedents will prove of interest:
In the year 1774 George CARROTHERS, who his wife Isabella and little
infant James, embarked on board the Mary, bound to Philadelphia, where they
arrived the same year. He had seen for
the last time his only brother and the shores of his native country, even then
as now, poor, troubled Ireland. Soon
after their arrival Isabella died, leaving her husband and little babe
strangers in a strange land. He found a
home in Washington county, PA, and some years afterward married his second
wife. Young James learned to be a
careful farmer, and at the age of 30 married Susanna DYE, daughter of
Enoch DYE, of Washington county, PA.
In 1814 James CARROTHERS purchased of government a tract of land
in Monroe county, OH, one mile west of Woodsfield, and soon after moved his
family to this village until he could build a log cabin on his land. Woodsfield containing then only a few log
houses. He planted an orchard in the
woods, and then built his log house.
While they lived in Woodsfield, on Apr 19 1817, George W. CARROTHERS
was born (the first child born in Woodsfield).
They had now five daughters living and one son. When they moved into their new house the
tall forest trees were standing within a few feet of the door, and at night the
hungry wolves kept up a most disagreeable howling. Long after this James CARROTHERS would often rise in the
morning to find his sheep all torn and bleeding by these prowling pests. G. W. CARROTHERS helped to catch the
last wolf in Centre township, and he remembers that a herd of deer came over
the hill before the door daily, to go to drink at a spring that old hunters
called the Lick. Owing to the failing
health of the old pioneer, Enoch D. CARROTHERS, his youngest child and
George W., at 10 and 12 years of age, had to perform men s work, and had to
undergo many privations. They remember
going over the snow covered ground to the pens they built to catch the wild
turkey, and of stopping for a few moments in the running stream to soothe their
aching bare feet. In 1846 James CARROTHERS
died, and was buried in the cemetery at Woodsfield. Though he was not a member of any church, yet he was strictly
moral and would often severely reprimand the swearer or Sabbath breaker. In 1853 his faithful wife was laid by his
side. Four of their daughters sleep
there too, and of these daughters children some have sought for homes far
away, and have traveled from Lake Erie s shore to Panama bay; from the most
distant Atlantic State to the far away Golden Gate. At the age of 21, G. W. CARROTHERS married Mary DYE,
daughter of John R. DYE, a Baptist minister. He, too, was an old pioneer and came from NJ to this county at an
early date. When riding to his
appointments there were no roads, not even a path, to lead him through the
wilderness. The marked trees were his
only guide. G. W. CARROTHERS is
now 64 years old, and claims no good deeds for himself, but we know that he has
wept with those that have wept, and hopes in the kindness of Him who hath the
words of eternal life, who would lead our thoughts from earth s bitter strife
to happy scenes of peace above, where all is illumined by Jesus love.

JAMES WATSON
is an attorney-at-law, farmer and merchant, of Woodsfield, Monroe county,
OH. He is a native of Scotland, having
been born in Glasgow, Apr 28 1825. His parents,
John & Margaret ADAMS WATSON, came to this county in 1848,
where they both died. To show the
respect in which Mr. WATSON is held in this county, it is only necessary
to enumerate the offices he has filled, viz: justice of peace, captain of State
militia, captain Co. I, 7th Regiment WV Volunteer Infantry,
postmaster at Graysville 16 years, representative in General Assembly of Ohio
for two terms, from Monroe county, from Jan 1 1874 to Jan 1 1878, master
commissioner and president Monroe County Agricultural Society. He was in the late war, first as first
lieutenant of Co. D, and afterwards captain of Co. I, 7th Regiment
WV Volunteer Infantry. An ounce ball
entered his shoulder at Fredericksburg, in the slaughterpen there, under
General Burnside, which wound was the cause of his resignation. His son, John A., was in the 196th
OVI. Mr. WATSON s first marriage
was to Maria J. SMITH, to whom the following children were born: Maria
Jane, Mar 12 1859, deceased; John A., born Apr 28 1848, resides in Graysville;
Smith H., Nov 7 1849, died Dec 3 1863; James Allen, May 10 1851, resides in

Monroe, Apr 17 1877. The WATSON
family and their relatives seem to have a military leaning. One brother-in-law, Robert SMITH, was
killed at Mission Ridge; a brother, William WATSON, contracted
consumption in the service, and gave his life for the Union; another
brother-in-law was in the 116th OVI; another, Isaac B. SMITH,
was in the 7th WV Infantry; and their cousins, the GIVENS,
and other families, sent unprecedented numbers into the great rebellion, every
one, without exception, on the Union side.
James Allen WATSON, at the age of 17, ran away from home and went
to KS, where he joined the 19th KS Cavalry, Co. K, doing service in
the Indian campaign under General Custer, being nearly starved on the

It is the great prerogative of Mankind above other Creatures, that we are not only able to behold the works of Nature, or barely to sustein our lives by them, but we have also the power of considering, comparing, altering, assisting, and improving them to various uses.
And as this is the peculiar priviledge of humane Nature in general, so is it capable of being so far advanced by the helps of Art, and Experience, as to make some Men excel others in their Observations, and Deductions, almost as much as they do Beasts.
By the addition of such artificial Instruments and methods, there may be, in some manner, a reparation made for the mischiefs, and imperfection, mankind has drawn upon itself, by negligence, and intemperance, and a wilful and superstitious deserting the Prescripts and Rules of Nature, whereby every man, both from a deriv'd corruption, innate and born with him, and from his breeding and converse with men, is very subject to slip into all sorts of errors.
The only way which now remains for us to recover some degree of those former perfections, seems to be, by rectifying the operations of the Sense, the Memory, and Reason, since upon the evidence, the strength, the integrity, and the right correspondence of all these, all the light, by which our actions are to be guided, is to be renewed, and all our command over things is to be establisht.
It is therefore most worthy of our consideration, to recollect their several defects, that so we may the better understand how to supply them, and by what assistances we may inlarge their power, and secure them in performing their particular duties.
As for the actions of our Senses, we cannot but observe them to be in many particulars much outdone by those of other Creatures, and when at best, to be far short of the perfection they seem capable of : And these infirmities of the Senses arise from a double cause, either from the disproportion of the Object to the Organ, whereby an infinite number of things can never enter into them, or else from error in the Perception, that many things, which come within their reach, are not received in a right manner.
The like frailties are to be found in the Memory; we often let many things slip away from us, which deserve to be retain'd; and of those which we treasure up, a great part is either frivolous or false ; and if good, and substantial, either in tract of time obliterated, or at best so overwhelmed and buried under more frothy notions, that when there is need of them, they are in vain sought for.
The two main foundations being so deceivable, it is no wonder, that all the succeeding works which we build upon them, of arguing, concluding, defining, judging, and all the other degrees of Reason, are lyable to the same imperfection, being, at best, either vain, or uncertain: So that the errors of the understanding are answerable to the two other, being defective both in the quantity and goodness of its knowledge; for the limits, to which our thoughts are confind, are small in respect of the vast extent of Nature it self; some parts of it are too large to be comprehended, and some too little to be perceived.
And from thence it must follow, that not having a full sensation of the Object, we must be very lame and imperfect in our conceptions about it, and in all the propositions which we build upon it; hence we often take the shadow of things for the substance, small appearances for good similitudes, similitudes for definitions; and even many of those, which we think to be the most solid definitions, are rather expressions of our own misguided apprehensions then of the true nature of the things themselves.
The effects of these imperfections are manifested in different ways, according to the temper and disposition of the several minds of men, some they incline to gross ignorance and stupidity, and others to a presumptuous imposing on other mens Opinions, and a confident dogmatizing on matters, whereof there is no assurance to be given.
Thus all the uncertainty, and mistakes of humane actions, proceed either from the narrowness and wandring of our Senses, from the slipperiness or delusion of our Memory, from the confinement or rashness of our Understanding, so that 'tis no wonder, that our power over natural causes and effects is so slowly improvd, seeing we are not only to contend with the obscurity and difficulty of the things whereon we work and think, but even the forces of our own minds conspire to betray us.
These being the dangers in the process of humane Reason, the remedies of them all can only proceed from the real, the mechanical, the experimental Philosophy, which has this advantage over the Philosophy of discourse and disputation, that whereas that chiefly aims at the subtilty of its Deductions and Conclusions, without much regard to the first groundwork, which ought to be well laid on the Sense and Memory ; so this intends the right ordering of them all, and the making them serviceable to each other.
The first thing to be undertaken in this weighty work, is a watchfulness over the failings and an inlargement of the dominion, of the Senses. To which end it is requisite, first, That there should be a scrupulous choice, and a strict examination, of the reality, constancy, and certainty of the Particulars that we admit: This is the first rise whereon truth is to begin, and here the most severe, and most impartial diligence, must be imployed ; the storing up of all, without any regard to evidence or use, will only tend to darkness and confusion.
We must not therefore esteem the riches of our Philosophical treasure by the number only, but chiefly by the weight; the most vulgar Instances are not to be neglected, but above all, the most instructive are to be entertain'd: the footsteps of Nature are to be trac'd, not only in her ordinary course,but when she seems to be put to her shifts, to make many doublings and turnings, and to use some kind of art in indeavouring to avoid our discovery.

In this tutorial, we cover how to organize your presentation structure. So far, we've just shown how to add a label, but there is much more to the Kivy language than this. For example, you can either dictate what all buttons will look like, for what specific buttons in specific widgets look like, or both!
To show this, we're going to add another class, Widgets, and then we'll see how to describe what a button within a specific class should look like:
KivyVideo4.py file:
from kivy.app import App #kivy.require("1.8.0") from kivy.uix.label import Label from kivy.uix.widget import Widget class Widgets(Widget): pass class SimpleKivy2(App): def build(self): return Widgets() if __name__ == "__main__": SimpleKivy2().run()
We're now importing Widget, and then we're making this Widgets class, which is inheriting from the Widget class from Kivy.
Now, where we used to return a different Kivy class, we're going to instead have SimpleKivy (now called SimpleKivy2, which will correspond to my SimpleKivy2.kv file) now returning the Widgets class.
That's all for the Python code. We pass with the Widgets class because the only "code" that we want for now is just presentation code. Since we're currently using .kv files for the presentation, that's where the rest of our code will be going.
SimpleKivy2.kv file:
<Widgets>: Button: size: 100,75 pos: 0,0 text: "Kivy" color: 0,1,0,1 font_size: 40 Button: size: 170,75 pos: 100,0 text: "Tutorials" color: 1,0,0,1 font_size: 40
Now, what is happening here is that
First, we see two button children. After that, we see another tab with a some parameters for those buttons.
It will be very easy to forget the required colons after the parents, and you won't really be served any explicit errors because of it.
The outcome for this:
For the buttons: Size is the width and height of the button in pixels. Then, pos is the position of the element, using the top left point as the guide. Next, "Text" is whatever we want the button to say. Then we have color, which is measured as RGB-A, or red, green, blue, alpha, and these are in values between 0 and 1. So, 0,1,0,1 is no red, full green, no blue, and full alpha (meaning the color is solid). Finally, "font_size" is the size of the font. I know you didn't see that coming!


France: pregnant woman killed by dogs during hunt with hounds
by AFPAnimal rights activists urge halt to hunting season after body found near Villers-Cotterêts
A pregnant woman has been killed by dogs while walking her own dog in a forest in northern France during a hunt with hounds, investigators have said.
The body of the 29-year-old woman was found on Saturday in a forest outside the town of Villers-Cotterêts, about 90km (55 miles) north-east of Paris, the prosecutor’s office in nearby Soissons said.
An autopsy showed that she had died of “bleeding after several dog bites to the upper and lower limbs and the head,” prosecutor Frederic Trinh said on Tuesday. Some of the bites were “postmortem”, he added.
Trinh said that tests had been carried out on 93 dogs, including some hounds from the hunt and five dogs belonging to the woman herself, to try to establish which ones attacked her.
The police have launched an investigation into manslaughter by dog attack.
According to local newspaper Le Courrier Picard, the dogs were hunting deer.
The woman had called her partner while walking her dog to report the presence of “threatening dogs”, the prosecutor’s office said. It was he who later discovered her body.
Brigitte Bardot, president of her eponymous animal welfare foundation, declared herself deeply shocked on hearing of the case and in a letter urged Élisabeth Borne, the French minister for ecological transition, to suspend “immediately all hunt authorisation for this season”.
But the Paris-headquartered French hunting association said that “nothing shows the involvement of hunting hounds in the death of this woman”.
France has more than 30,000 hunt hounds in total and the association stated that “these dogs are trained to hunt a particular animal and obey man in all circumstances”.


I am a passionate programmer seeking the opportunity to empower individuals, communities, and the underserved among them.
Having worked with developmentally-challenged children and families from varied backgrounds, I saw how technology had the power to either isolate its users or draw people together. I want to be a part of a coding community that not only cares about advancing technology but also about improving lives.
I'm always amazed how people perceive and solve problems from different perspectives, whether those differences stem from culture, education, or other life experiences. Wase Boggs once said "A positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events and outcomes. It is a catalyst and it sparks extraordinary results." I hope that my background—my differences from work and education in psychology combined with my accomplishments at Coding Dojo—can spark those extraordinary results.


PCBank PB2700 2560×1440 with Ubuntu 12.4
Suh-weet cheap high resolution monitor, but requires a decent video card. The cheap korean version I bought requires the videocard to do the heavy lifting with respect to driving the screen, thus the cheap price. When I bought it, the Korean seller tried to verify the card I was using as I assume they've had unhappy customers who didn't RTFM.
I'm running an XFX Radeon HD6870 on top of a Z77 motherboard (but still running sandybridge for now). My real goal is a hackintosh, but I'm not sure I picked the right mobo. I also bought a DisplayPort-to-Dual-DVI adapter from Monoprice but haven't actually seen it working yet. Did not work with this monitor with my 11″ i7 HD3000 MacBook Air, haven't seen the DP-to-Dual-DVI work in barely-viewed Hackintosh-land nor (post this fix) Linux-land.
http://askubuntu.com/a/131027
Basically, manually get the driver, recompile it for the LTS kernel, install and bob's your uncle. I am running the PB2700 monitor of the isolated DVI port and a 1920×1200 on the DVI port with all the HDMI and DisplayPort noise. Once the PB2700 monitor works at all with Linux it will then start to show boot screens.
It is teh awesome.

3 people injured as a fight breaks out at Damba festival
by Qwame BenedictAccording to a news item we sighted on Myjoyonline, three people are reported injured in Bimbila in the Northern region following a violent clash between police and members of the Nakpaa Naa family on Thursday over the annual Damba festival.
Eyewitnesses say police tried to stop the Nakpaa Naa family from going ahead with a ceremony to mark the annual Damba festival, resulting in the clash.
Joy News sources say the Nakpaa Naa family was being prevented by police from celebrating the festival because it was considered an affront to the authority of the Dasana Andani family who a Supreme Court ruling declared as the legitimate heirs to the Bimbila skin.
The Nakpaa Naa family and the Dasana Andani family had been embroiled in a long dispute about who was the rightful heir of the Bimbila skin before the Supreme Court ruling.
The court ruled that Nyelin-Boligu Naa Yakubu Andani Dasana, the Regent of Bimbila, was the legitimate heir to the skin and not Nakpaa Naa Salifu Dawuni. Both factions are members of the Gbugmayili family.
An eyewitness told Joy News that police had a tough time breaking up the Damba festival celebration that had been started by the Nakpaa Naa faction.
The injured, including an eight-year-old girl, are members of the Nakpaa Naa faction who had been taking part in the celebrations.

merge tag in a link URL.
The URL used for this example was:
https://davidsimpson.me/labs/pii-viewer/mailchimp-example.html?mcid=*|EMAIL_UID|*
If your Mailchimp Email UID is set, then it will be sent over to Google Analytics (GA4) by this page using the following code:
const mcid = new URLSearchParams(location.search).get('mcid'); if (mcid) { gtag("event", "mailchimp_mailshot", { mcid: mcid, }); }


Installation
Luwra is a header-only library, which means that nothing has to be compiled in order to use it. Simply clone the repository or download it and extract it to a directory of your preference.
For your application to be able to reach the lib/luwra.hpp
header file, you must add
/path/to/luwra/lib
to the list of include paths. With Clang and GCC that is done using the
-I/path/to/luwra/lib
command-line parameter.
Now you can simply #include <luwra.hpp>
in your C++ files and start using Luwra.
Integration
This library does not provide a standalone version of Lua nor does it isolate its features. This means that all functions and classes can operate on lua_State (or the alias State). Doing this allows you to integrate Luwra however you like.
Nevertheless, you must have a version of Lua installed. Luwra will include the necessary header files, but it can't link against the Lua library itself.

I just finished my second year of college at Montana State University studying both English Writing and English literature. Even while I was younger and still learning how to write, I was fascinated and passionate about the art of language and story.  In the beginning, I was interested in creative prose. But as I’ve worked my way through high school, college, and a few writing related jobs so far, I’ve also fallen in love with business writing, marketing, blogging, essay writing, and much more.
Even though a lot of my time is dedicated to writing, I’ve also been singing for almost eight years. I’ve always liked public speaking after watching my parents do it my entire life. School has been a pleasure for me- I love to learn. Science, psychology, sociology, politics, religion, music, art, business, and much more are all topics that I enjoy and have at least a minimal basis of understanding in order to write more efficiently.
One of the most important things to know about me is my profound love for people. Outside of my field, what truly brings me happiness is loving and supporting friends, family, and even people I don’t know well. I do my best to be friendly and professional through all modes of communication.

It will add the following buttons besides the tags list on steam
Allows you to give it a list of games and it will retrieve the tags of those games + the top tags by appearance(frequency)
For example the following list:

Will have the following result:


The Monaco Editor is the code editor which powers VS Code,
with the features better described here.
The editor provides a rich coding experience with IntelliSense and validation for a few select languages, namely
JavaScript/TypeScript, CSS / LESS /SCSS, and JSON; including but not limited to syntax highlighting, code completion and
refactoring. Furthermore, basic support such as syntax highlighting is available for many mor languages, see the list below.
It also supports localization and comes with support for a few major languages out-of-the-box.
This component is a wrapper that allows Monaco Editor to be used as a JSF component.
The monaco editor library is developed by Microsoft and released under a MIT License. You can find their official GitHub repo
here.
The Monaco Editor component has been developed with customizability in mind. You can specify and extender to configure
the editor via custom JavaScript in any way you like via the official
client-side API. This JSF component comes in four varieties:
- The
pe:monacoEditor
renders the editor inline in the page where you include it. This is usually more
efficient and the preferred way when you do not need different editors with a different global configuration.
- The
pe:monacoEditorFramed
renders the editor in an iframe for improved encapsulation. Part of the
Monaco Editor configuration is window global, such as the loaded TypeScript declaration files for improved JavaScript
IntelliSense. If you wish to use multiple editors with a completely different setup, consider using the framed variant.
- The
pe:monacoDiffEditor
renders a diff editor for comparing two files inline in the page where you include it.
This is usually more efficient and the preferred way when you do not need different editors with a different global configuration.
- The
pe:monacoDiffEditorFramed
renders a diff editor for comparing two files in an iframe for improved encapsulation.
Part of the Monaco Editor configuration is window global, such as the loaded TypeScript declaration files for improved JavaScript
IntelliSense. If you wish to use multiple editors with a completely different setup, consider using the framed variant.
All variants share almost the same API with a few minor differences regarding a few client-side widget methods and how
you specifiy the extender. The diff editor has some additional properties for the the settings of the original (left) editor
against which the value is compared. As the framed variant runs inside an iframe, all interactions with the editor is handled
via postMessage
and thus neccesarily asynchronous. The API makes heavy use of Promises.
While PrimeFaces extensions does not have TypeScript declarations in general yet, the client side API of this component
is fully typed and checked against the PrimeFaces type:
primefaces-monaco-global.d.ts,
primefaces-monaco-module.d.ts
Note that this is a code editor, not at all unlike CodeMirror. Especially for the languages with IntelliSense support (see above) this
editor can provide a fuller and more pleasing experience. However, there are a few things to keep in mind:
-
Microsoft's statement regarding IE support:
The Monaco Editor no longer supports IE 11. The last version that was tested on IE 11 is
0.18.1.
-
It is assumed that users are using a browser with support for the Promise API.
Every browser other than IE, which is unsupported anyways,
now supports Promises.
When for some reason support for the Promise API should not be available, you can simply include an appropriate polyfill.
While untested, it may also be possible to support IE 11 this way.
- Also, the Monaco editor is not supported in mobile browsers or mobile web frameworks. In practice this means there is not dedicated
user interface for small screens or special controls for entering code on mobile devices. A larger tablet with an external keyboard and
possibly a mouse should work just fine, but make sure you test your use-case scenario.
Basic support including syntax highlighting is available for the following languages:
(but also check the official docs, more languages may have been added in the mean time)
