Currently, you have to implement an empty class for any local task plugin. This is a bit weird, you are then just using the empty class for the annotation. It makes sense, similar to routes, to have YAML discovery for these, then static local tasks just get added into a $module.localtasks.yml file. This seems like better UX, as people can then actually create a plugin class for dynamic local tasks.
API changes
Annotations for local tasks go away.
Caching is removed and will be handled in a follow since the strategy is being developed in parallel. (related issue below)

Here's an initial patch for this. I have converted views local tasks and removed all the empty plugin classes.
The main thing that concerns me, is if we use a the standard derivative id pattern of "$base_plugin_id:$derivative_id" then the parent/root tab ids have to also reflect this, see the currently converted views_ui.local_tasks.yml file in the patch.

This is a huge WTF. I'm not sure if the derivative system will let us work around this though?
Yep, that's exactly what I was saying in #2.
I guess we could implement our own discovery decorator? or just have the static plugin if as 'static' (or something), so the ids could be 'static:views_ui_list_tab' maybe?
I talked with neclimdul yesterday and to be honest he wasn't really convinced that local tasks as plugins are a good idea, so we didn't made any progress on that regard.
We could either implement our own (urgs) or allow the default one to be "configured".

Here's an alternative. Its a patch based on #2065571: Add YAML Plugin discovery. Its incomplete, notably missing translation and caching. This was mostly because of the @todo about caching already in the Manager which this bespoke Manager could more properly handle. Solving that @todo was a larger task though with bigger picture concerns that need to be discussed.

I'm the worst. I uploaded the wrong patch but the right interdiff. Sorry for the noise.
The patch is looking pretty good but should we not be working on the dependency first? i.e. #2065571: Add YAML Plugin discovery? As that will block this anyway.
For instance, the latest patch over there does not override the provider key, as this could be set on behalf of another module.
I will ask one of the core maintainers to give their opinion on this today.
As a side note, you should not criticise the work others do so much, it's not constructive :/ The derivative pattern was added (yes, it's not ideal) to have the minimum changes to the API (just additions).
Status: | Needs review | » Needs work |
So I think the pattern used with local tasks should be the right one here also - we want a convenient YAML derivative provider, but we need to allow for modules (e.g. Views) to provide other derivatives. Or maybe I'm missing the flow.
in any case, I think this needs a re-roll since the standalone YAML Plugin discovery was committed.
Local actions?
Well, first we still need confirmation that this API change is allowed. The current patch will render all current plugins for local tasks broken. Which is why local actions currently has the derivative YAML pattern and not this one.
It is more of an issue here though, as local tasks reference other local tasks.
This is why I added a discovery decorator over in #2065571: Add YAML Plugin discovery, as a contingency plan. That got removed whilst I was asleep though.

Here is a reroll anyway.
Adding YAML discovery is fine, removing annotation discovery I don't see any reason to do that.
The only reason I can think of would be if the directory scans from both YAML + annotation discovery were too expensive on cache misses but no-one's brought that up on here (or any other real reason for removing it that I can see in this issue).
We're removing annotation discovery from local tasks because we're not using it. Why would we keep it?
Another reason we'd want to lean toward yaml only that catch wanted documented is that mixing the two means we have to scan directories for annotations and a separate set of directories for yaml files. 2 scans is less good.
Title: | Add local task plugin deriver to use YAML discovery for static definitions | » Replace local task plugin discovery with YamlDiscovery |
This reflects better what we want to do?
@neclimdul - whatever we do, we need to have a simple way for modules like Views or Search to add local tasks dynamically. I'm not sure how the derivative decorator interacts with this YAML discovery?
@pwolanin is there not a test for this in core already? It should be handled by the derivative decorator being used by all other plugins system.
@neclimdul - had some discussion with EclipseGC about this to clarify my understanding - seems indeed like it should be handled, but it would be nice to demonstrate it.
I'm confused as to why are you creating a new LocalTaskDefault and not just using LocalTaskBase?
also, why comment out the alter hook?
+ // @todo caching/compiling, translations and altering.
+ // $this->alterInfo($module_handler, 'local_tasks');
re LocalTaskDefault I can't decide if it was because I was moving the static discovery from before or if its because Base is designed to be extended by all tasks and default is explicitly the default. I kinda like the way it is but if there's a case for removing it I'm open to hearing the argument.
re: todo because caching, altering, and translations are closely connected I was leaving it up to the follow up to get it right. We can't just uncomment it because we're not inheriting the DefaultPluginManager but we can put some sort of logic in if its needed.

From IRC - you can skip calling the parent constructor and still extend DefaultPluginManager. Here's a quick re-roll to does that and removes 2 unneeded classes.
Something that seems to be missing from the committed YAML discovery is required key checking and typecasting (e.g. make sure a parameter is an array)?
Since when does discovery do that?
Possibly a required keys thing could work. I'm not sure about any type casting though. Why would we even want to do that? (I don't see the point of us doing it in the other issue before). If people have not used an array when they should have, they will get an error soon enough anyway. We don't want to do too much babysitting IMO. If something gets cast into an array, that could make DX worse, i.e. harder for a Dev to debug, or thinking that not using an array is ok.
re: skipping the constructor, I don't really like that. I don't know what the concern here is. Is there a problem, bug or concern?

I didn't want to have this discussion quite yet but since it's come up several times on IRC as well and it is a change I'm making in the patch so I should have done it earlier. This isn't pointed at anyone I just want to lay it all out here so everyone sees it.
TL;DNR We're taking unnecessary technical debt.
First, conceptually extending the default plugin manager doesn't make sense to me. Really I think its weird that we ever do extend it because it sort of breaks our semantics(base vs default) but that is a different argument. In this case we are not using the default methods for plugin management. We have different methods for discovery addressed in this issue and different methods for caching which affects all the rest of the DefaultPluginManager code minus maybe the cache clearing method. The alterInfo function pwolanin added it back for is so trivial I even wonder what the point is.
Now the academic argument. I think we're taking on technical debt that doesn't serve us well. The DefaultPluginManager is built to be the one true core plugin implementation. The core idea is that we want the implementations extending it to be tightly coupled as a way of being able to maintain them in a single location because other managers are basically only configuring it for each implementation.
The problem is the concerns of this plugin system are fundamentally different. We've got both a different discovery system, and different cache logic and probably additional concerns. We should remove the training wheels and really write the bespoke manager implementation we need and maintain exactly that not a monkey patch of another class we're not really using.

Updated patch with some discussion from IRC.
1) Because every task isn't making a class, we're really making a default not a base implementation. So instead of removing the default remove the base and move the implementation.
2) Not actually from IRC but what I'd prefer to see happen based on my comment in #39. For now just store the moduleHandler and handle altering as part of cache follow up or as its own follow up.
Also, because it won't be clear from the interdiff, I updated the todo from the base implementation when I moved it.
I was also lazy worked on my local branch and manually applied pwolanin's changes since I was changing some of them. Because of that the interdiff is off of #19/#24 and you'll see a lot of the same changes. Sorry.

After quite some talking with chx and pwolanin we just want to use the decorator approach and reduce the amount of changes of the local task manager as much as possible.
An interdiff to #42 does not make that much sense as I started from 0. Well I copied quite some changes for the tests, so thank you for that!

I think if we are backing off of using primary YAML discovery we should align this with local actions and generate derivatives based on the YAML, instead of adding this extra decorator on top?
In any case, the 2 implementations should be in alignment.

Seriously, no. You're making things more complicated at some false sense of "bigger" changes. Don't.
So you don't like that we build up an alternative chain of constructors?
Great, now we finally found a solution of which all beside one person agrees with, yeah :)
Maybe I'm not understanding what you did because there wasn't an interdiff and I don't have time to compare the patches line by line tonight but there is no possible reason I can think of to move yaml to a decorator. that is by the very definition of how plugins work the job of the discover object.
It seems the real concern here is that people want to continue inheriting from the DefaultPluginManager. I do still disagree but we don't need a decorator for that. I'm out of time for the evening but I'll re-roll 2 patches so we can see what's going on. Also, since this is a concern we want to discuss lets move the cache issue forward so we can include the cache complexities here instead of the @todo.
@neclimdul - no, I think the real concern is that custom implementations should use annotation rather than yaml.
Ok, so if we want to have definitions live in 2 places, have 2 directory scans and have an extra decorator to support it I'm not going to stop this. I do think it is the wrong decision though.
So... I know it seems the direction is moving around but I think we are all struggling to see if we are making the "right" decision in terms of setting a model for other parts of core and contrib. At least *I'm* struggling.
The advantage of using annotations for custom implementations is that the meta-data is directly on the class so e.g. it could be duplicated as a unit. Is this worth the potential confusing of there being 2 ways devs might need to approach the same general task?
Using some version of yaml discovery (instead of derivates) for the plugins using the default class means we have nicer IDs and an easier DX in the 80%+ case. But I think we'll need to do the kind of checking like #11 that Tim didn't like. Does having the annotation class means that default values are filled in? I'm not sure I see how that would work. At the least, they not that they are validated, so I think we need something like this list from #11 regardless.
Based on discussion w/ msonnabaum, the right place to put the validation might be in a factory class?
Maybe we can setup a hangout or some other way to have a real-time discussion?
I'm going to re-roll a patch that looks more like #34 and #42 (back to pure YAML discovery without a decorator) and add a custom factory class which is where the validation will live.
I think it's very helpful to keep the hook trivially in place by using the DefaultPluginManager since I'm guessing a module like Views would prefer to do that instead of having to set up a derivatives class via referencing it in YAML?
I think that remains an advantage of keeping annotation discovery too - that a derivative class can be located where needed and be totally self-contained?

Here's a new one that adds a LocalTaskFactory, and translates the title (which was missing before). The title translation is actually a good reason perhaps to stick with one discovery - in the annotated version it was already translated, so we'd have a mix of translated and untranslated strings.

So, further discussion in IRC with msonnabaum and others, suggests that setting defaults would ideally be in the YAML discovery since the annotation-based discovery already sets defaults and it would be good for them to work in parallel.
However, the rest of core already uses the $defaults array from the PluginManagerBase. So... let's go back to that and then we don't need the custom factory right now.
So, this ends up back very close to neclimdul's patch in #42 except that it continues to extend DefaultPluginManager so we don't have to re-implement the alter hook and caching, validates that a route name is present, and translates the plugin title inside the getTitle() method.
This one has the rename in the diff, for easier comparison to neclimdul's

It would only matter in the case of fixed strings in the class, but I guess we should provide a $this->t() for that use case?

If they started a monopoly they would conquer the clothing and technological industry. But he was now short one, very important, employee. He had to hurry and find a secretary that would work and be able to adapt, quickly. His recent secretary had now been moved to his brother's industry in America. Uchiha Corporation was becoming a universal business but the Uchiha shortage had made it limited. He sat as he waited. He had several interviews in line and hoped that one of these people would be Uchiha material.
"Mr. Uchiha, the first person is here for the interview,"
"Hinata, are you ready?"
"Yes, Neji, I'm waiting for you," Hinata called to her cousin. Neji was her best friend, cousin, brother, and the only one she truly trusted.
"Oh," he smiled, as he walked down the steps, "Why didn't you tell me?"
"Because I know you were making sure you looked perfect for your photo shoot, today,"
"I'm sorry being a model is work," he said. Ever since he entered the modeling agency; he has been an amazing success. He was the youngest and most successful person in Japan, other than Sasuke Uchiha. He and Sasuke Uchiha are in, and have always been in, competition for anything and everything. One would win the sexiest guy; the other would win most successful. It was a never ending battle. Neji was a little worried as of why she would go for an interview for the Uchiha Corporation, but she needed the money. Her recent job was stressful and demanding without the pay to satisfy her basic needs, all the time. Neji said she should become a model, but she didn't want all that attention that Neji gets now. He has no personal life. Since their father/uncle died; they've relied on each other for support. Neji was so much more supportive and sweet now. She really cared for him, just as he did for her.
"Let's go," he said finally. Hinata liked the simple life, but when she was with Neji that never happened. They were, usually she was mauled out the way while other females threw themselves at her cousin. Today she prayed that didn't happen. They got in the limo and went on the ride.
Sasuke pushed the elevator button viciously and persistently. He was unsatisfied at the people who had applied for the job today. He had one more applicant and hoped she would be the right one for the job. He had not seen her file, but needed some fresh air, so that's what and where he was going. He needed to get the stress of an unsuccessful day off his mind.
He got on the elevator, got off the elevator and walked outside. He hated the smell of people around him smoking, the smell of smoke disgusted him, but the chill of the wind on his face made him ignore it. He watched as the bitter gray clouds started to pour down their anger as well. The tears of the clouds washed down on both Sasuke and everyone else outside faces.
Sasuke watched as a limo pulled up. He watched as the driver walked around the car and opened the door.
'High-class, huh?' he thought.
A female walked out. She wore a simple black shirt, and a white buttoned up shirt. With two buttons unfastened. She wore simple black shoes, and black pantyhose. Sasuke watched as the man held the umbrella over the females head. He walked her to the door and Sasuke couldn't help but stare. She was beautiful.
Sasuke scurried to catch her at the elevator. He was able to catch her. He entered the elevator and noticed he was soaking wet. He slapped himself mentally. He looked uncivilized. He wondered what she was doing here.
"Hello," he heard her murmur, barely audible.
'Is she talking to me?' he looked around and noticed he and she were the only ones in the elevator.
"Hello, ma'am," he replied politely.
He noticed a small blush appear on her face.
'She's about to make me melt, damn, people shouldn't look like this,' he thought.
The elevator stopped. He pulled his hand out to inform her she could leave first. 'I hope to see her again,' he thought.
He walked back into his office. He started to worry he wouldn't find a person for the job. He didn't think it was so difficult, to be a secretary and not drool over his every motion.
Or maybe it was.
"The last person is here, sir," Sasuke most trusted supervisor spoke.
"Thanks, Naruto, send them in," he said staring at his computer.
Sasuke now decided he should pull out the person's file. He noticed that she was of Hyuga descent. 'Interesting,' he thought.
He had not noticed that the female had walked into his presence.
"Excuse me," he heard her murmur. Then his thoughts went to a halt. 'That voice,' he thought.
He quickly turned his head to see the female that he saw not too long ago on the elevator.
"Hello, Miss…."
"Hinata…Hinata Hyuga," she finished reaching out her hand towards him.
"Yes, please sit down," he offered accepting her kind gesture and shook it.
"Sure," she politely accepted.
Wow, was all he could think. How was he suppose to interview her if he couldn't get past seeing her face?
"So…why do you think you should be hired for Uchiha Corporations?" he asked finally.
"Because I believe I have the qualities and skills that will be a great asset to this company," she stated confidently.
'Confidence, Beauty, Charm, huh, what other qualities does she have?' he thought.
Sasuke was able to get through the interview without tripping over his words too many times. But he really didn't care for the interview. He didn't care if she wasn't qualified; she was going to be hired and by the end of the month. He would have had slept with her. Then he would probably fire her. He didn't need that on his résumé or reputation. Besides she was related to his rival, Neji Hyuga. This would be the perfect payback. Since he didn't know of anybody Neji was dating; why not go at somebody he was even closer to, and the fact she actually looked good didn't hurt either.
This is going to be fun, he thought.
"Okay, Miss Hyuga, there is no point in making you wait for a phone call, you're hired," he said smirking.
She smiled and said, "Thank you," sweetly.
"You'll start tomorrow. I'll make sure to show you the ropes and trades of Uchiha Corp, but all you have to do is follow my orders and they'll never be a problem," he said with a mischievous grin hovering over his face.
"Okay," she said slowly, skeptical, because she knew his words had an underlining meaning she didn't know about yet..
"No reason for fear everyone here is like family," a real close family, he added mentally.
Sasuke led her outside and waited for her ride to reappear. He watched as she entered and disappeared as quickly as she came.
'Yes now this is why people come to work,' he thought, 'for the pleasure.'
Another thought that just came to me. Review for Continuation.

Federalist #51 (Madison): "Ambition must be made to counteract ambition."
Federalist #46 (Madison): "The federal and State governments are in fact but different agents and trustees of the people, constituted with different powers, and designed for different purposes."
Max Weber: Definition of the state: "monopoly of the legitimate use of physical force within a given territory"
Natural law is unrestrained violence of "eat or be eaten". We form communities to collaborate in gathering energy and propogating life. To punish violence with in our communities we grant government sovereignty to confiscate resources to coerce complaince to law and wage war against foreign societies. We create government to be the Monopoly of Violence.
Federalist #51 (Madison): If men were angels, no government would be necessary. If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary. In framing a government which is to be administered by men over men, the great difficulty lies in this: you must first enable the government to control the governed; and in the next place oblige it to control itself.
To limit the violcence applied by the men seeking to control the power of government, in America, We the People, Divided Sovereignty in the Constitution; "Ambition must be made to counteract ambition." During the Revolution and after Shay's Rebellion, it was clear to us that the States and Congress under the Articles of Confederation were incompetent at waging war and preventing domestic insurrection (read all the Federalist Papers). In ratifying the Constitution, We the People,
In ratifying the Constitution, We the People became one people with a single shared obligation to "provide" for the defense of liberty for ourselves and our Posterity. Because we were creating governments whose nature is to monopolize and apply violence, we set the Federal government and State governments to oppose the usurpations of the other.
Divided Sovereignty pits Federal ambition and sovereignty to tax for making war in conflict with State ambitions to tax for welfare. Divided Sovereignty pits the lust for power of the Federal Governing against the lust for power by the State Govering. We the People have directed these governments to oppose each other throughout our history.
Divided Sovereignty is America's ethical and legal solution to self-government. It is and has always been a work in progress with conflicts between Consolidation and Secession. The balance of forces is a work in progress, a nullify spectrum from grudging compliance, to the exercise of free speech to condemn, civil disobediance, jury nullification, state nullification, to rebellion.
How much institutional violence do we need in our lives? Unlimited government results in unlimited institutional violence.
Divided Sovereignty is mandated by America's written ethics and Law of the Land. It is essential for:
America's founding documents recognize the difference between community and government as stated in Common Sense:
SOME writers have so confounded society with government, as to leave little or no distinction between them; whereas they are not only different, but have different origins. Society is produced by our wants, and government by our wickedness; the former promotes our happiness POSITIVELY by uniting our affections, the latter NEGATIVELY by restraining our vices. The one encourages intercourse, the other creates distinctions. The first is a patron, the last a punisher.
Society in every state is a blessing, but Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state an intolerable one: for when we suffer, or are exposed to the same miseries BY A GOVERNMENT, which we might expect in a country WITHOUT GOVERNMENT, our calamity is heightened by reflecting that we furnish the means by which we suffer. Government, like dress, is the badge of lost innocence; the palaces of kings are built upon the ruins of the bowers of paradise. For were the impulses of conscience clear, uniform and irresistibly obeyed, man would need no other lawgiver; but that not being the case, he finds it necessary to surrender up a part of his property to furnish means for the protection of the rest; and this he is induced to do by the same prudence which in every other case advises him, out of two evils to choose the least. Wherefore, security being the true design and end of government, it unanswerably follows that whatever form thereof appears most likely to ensure it to us, with the least expense and greatest benefit, is preferable to all others
Our founding ethic, The Declaration of Independence, clearly distinquishes between community and government:
"Wild democracy" of the Articles of Confederation
Under the "wild democracy" of the Articles of Confederation, the Framers came to understand the two facets of democracy:
Wisdom from the Many is the brilliant facet of democracy. In his book, The Wisdom of Crowds, James Surowiecki, provides case after case of how the aggregated self-interest of all of us, with each of us acting in our own self-interest, is wiser than the wisest of us at choosing between choices. When there is liberty to choose, when all costs are capitalized into the price of use, our aggregated wisdom is genius.
Tyranny of the Majority is the vile facet of democracy. American examples of Tyranny of the Majority are:
Tyranny of the Majority was well understood by the Framers. Many were or had been slave holders. They villified the institution of slavery while indulging in the economic advantage of using the coercise powers of government to alienate slaves from their unalienable Rights. How Americans today are repeating this crime against our children is expanded later in this paper on Civilization Killers.
Benjamin Franklin: "Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote!"
Thomas Jefferson: "A democracy is nothing more than mob rule, where fifty-one percent of the people may take away the rights of the other forty-nine."
John Adams: "Remember, democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet that did not commit suicide."
John Quincy Adams: "Democracy has no forefathers, it looks to no posterity ; it is swallowed up in the present, and thinks of nothing but itself."
Thomas Jefferson, Letter to Joseph C. Cabell, February 2, 1816, explains what was achieved in the first 3 decades of the United States of America:
"The way to have good and safe government, is not to trust it all to one, but to divide it among the many, distributing to every one exactly the functions he is competent to.
Let the national government be entrusted with the defense of the nation, and its foreign and federal relations;
the State governments with the civil rights, law, police, and administration of what concerns the State generally;
the counties with the local concerns of the counties, and each ward direct the interests within itself.
It is by dividing and subdividing these republics from the great national one down through all its subordinations, until it ends in the administration of every man"s farm by himself; by placing under every one what his own eye may superintend, that all will be done for the best.
What has destroyed liberty and the rights of man in every government which has ever existed under the sun? The generalizing and concentrating all cares and powers into one body."
I have thought it proper to quote at length these interesting passages, because they contain a luminous abridgment of the principal arguments in favor of the Union, and must effectually remove the false impressions which a misapplication of other parts of the work was calculated to make. They have, at the same time, an intimate connection with the more immediate design of this paper; which is, to illustrate the tendency of the Union to repress domestic faction and insurrection.
Democracy: The Essential and Flawed Tool
This graphic is an effort to illustrate the two faceted nature of democracy, how Divided Sovereignty between Federal and State Governments allow Wisdom from the Many to be useful while constraining Tyranny of the Majority.
In Federalist #9 Hamilton extensively quotes Montesquieu:
So far are the suggestions of Montesquieu from standing in opposition to a general Union of the States, that he explicitly treats of a CONFEDERATE REPUBLIC as the expedient for extending the sphere of popular government, and reconciling the advantages of monarchy with those of republicanism.
"It is very probable,'' (says he) "that mankind would have been obliged at length to live constantly under the government of a single person, had they not contrived a kind of constitution that has all the internal advantages of a republican, together with the external force of a monarchical government. I mean a CONFEDERATE REPUBLIC.
"This form of government is a convention by which several smaller STATES agree to become members of a larger ONE, which they intend to form. It is a kind of assemblage of societies that constitute a new one, capable of increasing, by means of new associations, till they arrive to such a degree of power as to be able to provide for the security of the united body.
"A republic of this kind, able to withstand an external force, may support itself without any internal corruptions. The form of this society prevents all manner of inconveniences.
"If a single member should attempt to usurp the supreme authority, he could not be supposed to have an equal authority and credit in all the confederate states. Were he to have too great influence over one, this would alarm the rest. Were he to subdue a part, that which would still remain free might oppose him with forces independent of those which he had usurped and overpower him before he could be settled in his usurpation.
"Should a popular insurrection happen in one of the confederate states the others are able to quell it. Should abuses creep into one part, they are reformed by those that remain sound. The state may be destroyed on one side, and not on the other; the confederacy may be dissolved, and the confederates preserve their sovereignty.
"As this government is composed of small republics, it enjoys the internal happiness of each; and with respect to its external situation, it is possessed, by means of the association, of all the advantages of large monarchies.''
In Federalist #10 Madison explains how the Constitution was to be empower by Wisdom from the Many while defending against Tyranny of the Majority (faction:
If a faction consists of less than a majority, relief is supplied by the republican principle, which enables the majority to defeat its sinister views by regular vote. It may clog the administration, it may convulse the society; but it will be unable to execute and mask its violence under the forms of the Constitution. When a majority is included in a faction, the form of popular government, on the other hand, enables it to sacrifice to its ruling passion or interest both the public good and the rights of other citizens. To secure the public good and private rights against the danger of such a faction, and at the same time to preserve the spirit and the form of popular government, is then the great object to which our inquiries are directed. Let me add that it is the great desideratum by which this form of government can be rescued from the opprobrium under which it has so long labored, and be recommended to the esteem and adoption of mankind.
By what means is this object attainable? Evidently by one of two only. Either the existence of the same passion or interest in a majority at the same time must be prevented, or the majority, having such coexistent passion or interest, must be rendered, by their number and local situation, unable to concert and carry into effect schemes of oppression. If the impulse and the opportunity be suffered to coincide, we well know that neither moral nor religious motives can be relied on as an adequate control. They are not found to be such on the injustice and violence of individuals, and lose their efficacy in proportion to the number combined together, that is, in proportion as their efficacy becomes needful.
In Federalist #39 Madison illustrates Divided Sovereignty as part federal and part national government.
First. In order to ascertain the real character of the government, it may be considered in relation to the foundation on which it is to be established; to the sources from which its ordinary powers are to be drawn; to the operation of those powers; to the extent of them; and to the authority by which future changes in the government are to be introduced.
On examining the first relation, it appears, on one hand, that the Constitution is to be founded on the assent and ratification of the people of America, given by deputies elected for the special purpose; but, on the other, that this assent and ratification is to be given by the people, not as individuals composing one entire nation, but as composing the distinct and independent States to which they respectively belong. It is to be the assent and ratification of the several States, derived from the supreme authority in each State, the authority of the people themselves. The act, therefore, establishing the Constitution, will not be a NATIONAL, but a FEDERAL act.
That it will be a federal and not a national act, as these terms are understood by the objectors; the act of the people, as forming so many independent States, not as forming one aggregate nation, is obvious from this single consideration, that it is to result neither from the decision of a MAJORITY of the people of the Union, nor from that of a MAJORITY of the States. It must result from the UNANIMOUS assent of the several States that are parties to it, differing no otherwise from their ordinary assent than in its being expressed, not by the legislative authority, but by that of the people themselves. Were the people regarded in this transaction as forming one nation, the will of the majority of the whole people of the United States would bind the minority, in the same manner as the majority in each State must bind the minority; and the will of the majority must be determined either by a comparison of the individual votes, or by considering the will of the majority of the States as evidence of the will of a majority of the people of the United States. Neither of these rules have been adopted. Each State, in ratifying the Constitution, is considered as a sovereign body, independent of all others, and only to be bound by its own voluntary act. In this relation, then, the new Constitution will, if established, be a FEDERAL, and not a NATIONAL constitution.
The next relation is, to the sources from which the ordinary powers of government are to be derived. The House of Representatives will derive its powers from the people of America; and the people will be represented in the same proportion, and on the same principle, as they are in the legislature of a particular State. So far the government is NATIONAL, not FEDERAL. The Senate, on the other hand, will derive its powers from the States, as political and coequal societies; and these will be represented on the principle of equality in the Senate, as they now are in the existing Congress. So far the government is FEDERAL, not NATIONAL. The executive power will be derived from a very compound source. The immediate election of the President is to be made by the States in their political characters. The votes allotted to them are in a compound ratio, which considers them partly as distinct and coequal societies, partly as unequal members of the same society. The eventual election, again, is to be made by that branch of the legislature which consists of the national representatives; but in this particular act they are to be thrown into the form of individual delegations, from so many distinct and coequal bodies politic. From this aspect of the government it appears to be of a mixed character, presenting at least as many FEDERAL as NATIONAL features.
The difference between a federal and national government, as it relates to the OPERATION OF THE GOVERNMENT, is supposed to consist in this, that in the former the powers operate on the political bodies composing the Confederacy, in their political capacities; in the latter, on the individual citizens composing the nation, in their individual capacities. On trying the Constitution by this criterion, it falls under the NATIONAL, not the FEDERAL character; though perhaps not so completely as has been understood. In several cases, and particularly in the trial of controversies to which States may be parties, they must be viewed and proceeded against in their collective and political capacities only. So far the national countenance of the government on this side seems to be disfigured by a few federal features. But this blemish is perhaps unavoidable in any plan; and the operation of the government on the people, in their individual capacities, in its ordinary and most essential proceedings, may, on the whole, designate it, in this relation, a NATIONAL government.
But if the government be national with regard to the OPERATION of its powers, it changes its aspect again when we contemplate it in relation to the EXTENT of its powers. The idea of a national government involves in it, not only an authority over the individual citizens, but an indefinite supremacy over all persons and things, so far as they are objects of lawful government. Among a people consolidated into one nation, this supremacy is completely vested in the national legislature. Among communities united for particular purposes, it is vested partly in the general and partly in the municipal legislatures. In the former case, all local authorities are subordinate to the supreme; and may be controlled, directed, or abolished by it at pleasure. In the latter, the local or municipal authorities form distinct and independent portions of the supremacy, no more subject, within their respective spheres, to the general authority, than the general authority is subject to them, within its own sphere. In this relation, then, the proposed government cannot be deemed a NATIONAL one; since its jurisdiction extends to certain enumerated objects only, and leaves to the several States a residuary and inviolable sovereignty over all other objects. It is true that in controversies relating to the boundary between the two jurisdictions, the tribunal which is ultimately to decide, is to be established under the general government. But this does not change the principle of the case. The decision is to be impartially made, according to the rules of the Constitution; and all the usual and most effectual precautions are taken to secure this impartiality. Some such tribunal is clearly essential to prevent an appeal to the sword and a dissolution of the compact; and that it ought to be established under the general rather than under the local governments, or, to speak more properly, that it could be safely established under the first alone, is a position not likely to be combated.
If we try the Constitution by its last relation to the authority by which amendments are to be made, we find it neither wholly NATIONAL nor wholly FEDERAL. Were it wholly national, the supreme and ultimate authority would reside in the MAJORITY of the people of the Union; and this authority would be competent at all times, like that of a majority of every national society, to alter or abolish its established government. Were it wholly federal, on the other hand, the concurrence of each State in the Union would be essential to every alteration that would be binding on all. The mode provided by the plan of the convention is not founded on either of these principles. In requiring more than a majority, and principles. In requiring more than a majority, and particularly in computing the proportion by STATES, not by CITIZENS, it departs from the NATIONAL and advances towards the FEDERAL character; in rendering the concurrence of less than the whole number of States sufficient, it loses again the FEDERAL and partakes of the NATIONAL character.
The proposed Constitution, therefore, is, in strictness, neither a national nor a federal Constitution, but a composition of both. In its foundation it is federal, not national; in the sources from which the ordinary powers of the government are drawn, it is partly federal and partly national; in the operation of these powers, it is national, not federal; in the extent of them, again, it is federal, not national; and, finally, in the authoritative mode of introducing amendments, it is neither wholly federal nor wholly national.
Federalist #51 (James Madison):
"It is of great importance in a republic not only to guard the society against the oppression of its rulers but to guard one part of the society against the injustice of the other part. If a majority be united by a common interest, the rights of the minority will be insecure."
Common Sense, The Declaration of Independence, and the Constitution make clear distinction between community and government. One is based on human goodness, the other on the need to coerce human defects. Sovereignty to collect taxes and power apply coercion was to be divided:

They'd served me well last winter and seemed like a good pair to test against the new material Italian shoe company Vibram was selling. Advertisement I braced myself on the handlebars, and leaned all my weight onto my shoe, that sensation of zero traction was immediate and I quickly stepped away. "Okay," the PR rep cooed a little too paternally, "try the other foot."I was wearing a shoe with Vibram's new Arctic Grip material on my other foot. I placed it on the slick ramp, leaned in. And the shoe didn't budge. There was the unmistakable feeling of an excellent, almost tacky grip. The material itself feels like a fine grit sandpaper when you run your finger across it. Advertisement This new material is Vibram's first real new effort since unleashing FiveFinger barefoot running shoes onto the world. And it actually works. Unfortunately, it only works on slicker ice. A key component of its ability to maintain traction is the moisture content of the surface it's on. So don't expect miracles when trying to walk on black ice.Arctic Grip, which doesn't increase the cost of shoes it's on, is currently being licensed exclusively to Wolverine, and will be used in shoes from its brands, including Sperry, Merrell, Hush Puppies, Saucony, and CAT. After a year of exclusivity, other manufacturers will have access to the material. So hopefully by next Christmas, you'll be able to find it in shoes that don't cling to the Ugg or dude-bro hiking boot aesthetic.[Vibram]OMG, Shoooooooes!Vibram Five Finger Boots for Cold Weather We Beat Up Under Armour's New 3D-Printed ShoeHere Are Nike's First Power Lacing ShoesAlex firstname.lastname@example.com@alexhcranzReviews Editor.

'Pretty Little Liars' Recap: Spencer and Melissa Face Off

Last week, Emily let a creepy mask-maker make copies of her gorgeous face -- something 'A' would certainly never take advantage of -- while Spencer helped Toby get closer to discovering the truth about his mother's death. Aria helped her mom pack her bags for another country because Out of Town is not far enough when 'A' is targeting moms. And Hanna continued to search for the truth about her mother's role in Wilden's death. In this week's episode, "Face Time," Emily, Hanna and Spencer deal with drama on the home-front while Aria wastes away in romantic sub-plots no one cares about. Read on to find out what the
Pretty Little Liars
writers have in store for us this week.
Pretty Little Liars
Nominated at 2013 Teen Choice Awards >>>
Has Emily's Luck Run Out?
Emily's dad comes home and the audience breathes a sigh of relief at the reminder that at least one of these girls has a decent father figure. Alas, said relief turns into anxiety because Family Services is looking into Emily's home life after her shoulder injury and that arm-grabbing incident in front of the school. Emily feels guilty that her lies have landed her parents in hot water and she tries to fix things by explaining herself to the doctor, who is not Wren, but she seems to raise his suspicions even more.
Not-Wren also has some bad news for Em -- the damage to her shoulder is serious and could require surgery. It also requires her to give up swimming, potentially forever. Emily is heartbroken by this news, especially since she and Paige were so close to blowing town with dual swim-scholarships and a cozy dorm room to decorate.
Emily's day gets a little brighter after a pep-talk from Paige, but when Paige escorts Emily home, the police have been called in on a domestic disturbance. Either no one in Emily's neighborhood has witnessed genuine parenting before or 'A' is determined to strip each Liar of her family support system.
The Melissa Trap
With Toby busy on the trail of Dr. Palmer, Spencer can focus all of her attention on Melissa. The girls finally have some leverage over Melissa thanks to that creepy-face mask they found at Hector's, and Spencer will not waste this opportunity to get some answers. Spencer and Aria set Melissa up to "discover" the mask in the hopes that Melissa will lead them to the person who made it. Their plan works and Team Sparia follows Melissa back to Hector's mask-shop, where Melissa proceeds to get rid of countless masks. Are they all of her face?
Meanwhile, Aria discovers many Ali masks, more than enough for the whole town to commit endless crimes as a supposedly-dead teenage girl. Hector tells Aria that he saw Ali the summer she disappeared and she was desperate to collect the money he owed her. He also saw Ali with someone else, but did not get a look at the other person's face.
As Aria questions Hector, Spencer confronts Melissa. Melissa admits to being on the Halloween train and sending Jenna and Shana to spy on the girls, but she claims Wilden was the one responsible for the fire and that she was not working with him. Melissa says she and the others were afraid of Wilden and that Wilden had a partner who called all the shots. Spencer asks Melissa if she killed Wilden, but Melissa is done with the confessions for now and advises Spencer to let this one go because Melissa has apparently never met her sister. Spencer chooses to believe Melissa and Melissa disappears.
Mama Drama
Hanna continues to try and piece together her mother's involvement in Wilden's death. This becomes more difficult now that the state police are involved, as they are moderately competent and less prone to bribery than the Rosewood cops. Holbrook and his partner Lt. Tanner stop by Mama Marin's bank to check out a safety-deposit box Wilden kept there. The box is full of money, passports and a gun with the serial number scratched off. Ashley claims she has never seen the box before but the state police are not satisfied and cause Ashley some strain at her job.
Hanna chats up Lt. Tanner in the hopes of pointing her toward one of the many other people who wanted Wilden dead, but Tanner still has her eye on the Marin women. Hanna does make some progress with her mother, as she finally gets Ashley to stop denying that she was in Rosewood the night Wilden was killed. But with the evidence piling up and the state police asking all the right questions, Hanna finally acknowledges that her mom might indeed be responsible for Wilden's demise.
In Other Developments...
Toby manages to find Dr. Palmer, but the good doctor is now a patient and no longer coherent about the details of his past. He does remember wanting Toby's mother to stay away from "that blond girl." Dr. Palmer thought there was something off about her.
Aria continues to date Jake, but she has about as much interest in him as I have in the mystery of who killed Wilden-the-worst. Jake is nice and uncomplicated and maybe Aria needs that right now, but as Jake points out after hearing the long tale of Aria's first-and-last love, Aria is not as finished with Ezra as she wants to be.
Meanwhile, Caleb reminds us all of just how much we will miss him when he heads off to
by stopping Hanna from getting in deeper with the cops and helping her lie to protect her mother.
And Mona continues to be as MIA as Aria's long-lost brother, Mike.
What did you think of this week's episode? Do you think Melissa told Spencer the truth about not working with Wilden? Did Dr. Palmer want Toby's mother to stay away from Ali or another dangerous blonde? Do Holbrook and Tanner have an ulterior motive for zeroing in on Ashley as Wilden's killer? Let us know your thoughts and theories in the comments section.

Blog Post: Combat… Damage and Critical Strikes… Help!?!
Image via Wikipedia Ok, so with the help of Chuck and Mike, I feel a…
As a writer, the word "copse" has always evoked a sense of dread as a description for a group of trees or shrubbery, almost as though a copse was similar to a corpse but of a vegetal variety. Because of this, I've always tried to work it into my own work somewhere. Thus, Little Spaces: Creepy Copses was born!
These spaces are all about the greenery and the sometimes spooky and creepy effects those places can conjure. Places such as the Mirkwood in J.R.R. Tolkien's stories and the Black Forest near Hogwarts from J.K. Rowling are rife with shadow and danger hiding around every branch and trunk above and below. So why not create such places of horror and wonder in our own worlds?
Just like the other Little Spaces products, we'll apply a combination of rolls and tables to determine what the context and sensory description might bring us. Find one or more senses. Figure out what we're describing as an element. Toss in a few descriptive keywords and we're instantly wondering what we got ourselves into by following that forest path at dusk…
The elements don't seem spooky at all… The first five are:
Now let's look at the first ten items of the descriptive terms we'll use:
Whether we're describing something in the real world or one imagined in some fantastic world of magic or aliens, this approach can really inspire our brains to bring out some intriguing options to explore. If I use even just these terms I can come up with:
None of these is particularly creepy I'm afraid, but each offers a unique forest-based encounter for a party to experience. And the final product includes a list of 20 different elements along with 50 descriptive terms for a huge number of combinations. Who knows what sort of trouble your PCs might get in?
Little Spaces: Creepy Copses will be available soon, but in the meantime feel free to play with some of the random generators and pick up one of the other Little Spaces products at RPGNow, DriveThruRPG, Paizo, or d20pfsrd!

We have always wanted a fireplace in our living room. Our living room isn't very big, but my remodeling project presented a nice opportunity to add one. It, also, allowed me to learn and exercise new skills. I had never installed anything like this before, and the veneer stone presented a challenge.
You see, I am comfortable with laying tile on a floor. Been there, done that - and did it well. Installing large, heavy blocks of colored cement on a vertical surface is different. It's not a precise. It isn't as pretty, quite frankly. Much like the differences between rough and finish carpentry.
I prefer finish carpentry (not trim work, though). I, also, prefer tile work to stone.
So during this task my mood swung from fear, to confidence, to drudgery. Fear of, "can I do this?" Confidence - I am doing this. Quickly supplanted by, "how much longer am I going to have to do this?"
Before I started, but after I wrestled several hundred pounds of blocks into my living room, I started having second thoughts. I could have tiled the surround. Built a wood cabinet. Maybe learned to stucco. When it came time to do it, I just did it.
What I didn't quite appreciate was how dirty the work was going to be. It's bitterly cold out, so I had to mix and clean up indoors. I had to wet saw indoors. I had to chip stones indoors. Concrete dust made my skin rough and my hair like straw. It was all fun, once. The novelty wore off quickly. The second, third, fifth bucket of mortar, and complete clean up, just became work. There was no way out but through. The way to be done was to get done.
Like rough carpentry, I was never quite pleased with the fruits of this labor. I can see the mortar there. That stone isn't straight. I can see the cut line over there. When you've devoted several weekends to something, you don't want lackluster results. You want to Mona Lisa, you need the Sistine Chapel.
What I got was a fireplace.
And a few hundred pounds of leftovers.

In the days before he discovered race cars, it was all about the dump trucks and front-loaders.

How To Get Your Fans To Devour Your Social Media Images
Millions of visuals are shared every day on Social Media
News feeds are moving so fast & the noise is so loud on social media it is a wonder that you or anyone else can keep up.
How can you possibly stand out among all the noise?
The answer lies in snacks…..No….Not the popcorn or chocolate kind of snacks….
Visual snacks…..snackable social media images!
How does snackable visual content cut through the noise to catch attention, drive engagement & traffic?
"By providing people with small, easily digestible images that convey information visually…..says Donna Moritz , (a social media strategist & visual marketing specialist)…..Snackable visual content lets us recognize stuff we love quickly, process it, make a decision about it & share it with our friends… without taking much time, effort or thought".
Here are 3 ways that can help you stand out through all the noise and catch attention from Donna Moritz, guest blogger for Post Planner
1. Give Your Fans Snacks When They're Hungry
- In a mobile world, we have the option to log on to Facebook or Instagram when we have a second or two.
- For many people those "free" times are in the mornings or the evenings or when we take a break during the day.
- It's the best time to "snack" on content that grabs our attention, especially visual content.
- Post awesome, original images consistently, and your page will be put on the hit lists of other pages to share from it.
- Post awesome, original images consistently, and other pages will return to your page regularly to share the cool stuff you post on Facebook.
2. Stick to the Recipe
- With so many social platforms & feeds, it's vital that you take a step back & understand the nature of the platform you're playing on.
- There's a "recipe" for what works on each social platform.
- Stick to the recipe & people will "snack" on your visual content.
- And you'll get shares.
- Stray from the recipe, and, according to Gary Vaynerchuk, you're just interrupting people's entertainment:
If we want to talk to people while they consume their entertainment, we have to actually be their entertainment.
Snacking on Facebook
- The reality is that people aren't coming to Facebook to be sold to… they're coming to catch up with friends or family & to be entertained.
- So as Gary says, "be their entertainment".
- Provide humorous, nostalgic or quirky content in a visual format, so that people can snack on it & share it.
- If you provide tips or how-to information, do it in a visually fun way that not only catches fans' attention but encourages them to share.
- Getting to know how your fans think & what content they love takes time.
Snacking on Instagram
- Going beyond the popular sunsets, landscapes, & animal shots, Instagram is all about "taking us with you".
- Think mobile — take photos of your team & behind-the-scenes sneak peeks as you go about your day – they all provide snackable visual content on Instagram.
- Your fans truly want to be a fly on your wall.
Snacking on Google+
- Google+ users love images.
- But there's something special about the Google+ community.
- They like detail, fun facts & conversation.
- While G+ users will happily snack on images alone, don't be afraid to add some "did you know" information to your photo.
- In short, post the type of content you like to see, and chances are, others will Like, heart, +1 or retweet your stuff!
3. Blog in Bite-Sized Snacks
- It's the best place to house your visual content.
- There are many ways to make your visual content "snackable" on your blog.
- Here are just a few:
Break Your Blog Content Up with "Snackable" Images
- This will:
- highlight important information
- provide a visual "snapshot" of an idea, concept or story
- make your posts scannable & easily digested, allowing readers to draw on pictures as well as words to tell the story
Add Shareable "Flavor" to at Least One Image
- By adding text to images, even a word or 2, it helps add context to the image:
- allowing the image to stand alone should it be pinned to Pinterest & separated from your blog
- giving your team a way to easily repurpose visual content on Facebook, Twitter or Pinterest (depending on image size & message)
- enticing people to visit your blog via Pinterest or other social media websites
- Include a Pinterest Hover Button on your blog.
- When fans hover over images with their mouse it pops up to remind them to pin.
What helpful, stand-alone, engaging, "shareable" graphics can you create?
- If you're feeling creatively challenged, try using some of these tools:
- Canva for creating images + micrographics
- Piktochart to create some really cool DIY infographics using templates
- WordSwag for quick quote & tip images on the run (it's an iphone app)
Remember, how the snackable graphic helps someone or drives people to your blog is more important than how pretty it looks.
Snackable visual content is engaging & digestible (easily processed).
It should become a consistent part of your social media strategy.
Start thinking more like a fan & provide content snacks.
Just remember to feed fans their snacks in the ways they like to consume content!
If you enjoyed this post and found TONS OF VALUE, please take a moment and share…..Thank You!
Sharing Is Caring!
To Your Success,
Joan Harrington

THE WORLD HAS BEEN INVADED BY ALIENS! It's up to a nerdy, lazy high school kid to save it!

The game is about a witch named Sally. She lost her cats in the woods, now she's in a quest to get them back.
Physics based gameplay, 25 levels to play.
Made by Cats in the Sky.
Why does everything have to be so difficult and sticky! Prevents anyone from getting anywhere. The cunt whore witch is always flying places where she shouldn't be and where i didn't tell her to go! ugh, frustrating.
My Cat!
My kitty loved this game because every time I hit something with the cat and it meowed she would go nuts! She was going off!
Good game, flawed controls
This is a decent game with good animation but there is just 1 thing that ruins it for me: the controls. You have an ENTIRE keyboard to choose from when it comes to starting the game, pausing the game, reeling in the cat and dropping the cat, yet, you decided that the mouse would be used for everything. Why? It only causes so many problems for nothing. Examples:
- I'm starting a level... I clicked the pumpkin and then a cat... Out of nowhere, a string appears that starts at the pumpkin and ends at the cat because I didn't wait before clicking the cat.
- I want to reel in the cat, so I move my mouse over to Sally and the cat starts flying like crazy because I moved the mouse up.
- I want to drop a cat but I have not yet begun reeling it in. To drop it, I have to click Sally 4 times (twice to reel it in, twice to drop it) and by moving the mouse to Sally, the cat goes flying.
There are more examples but the bottom line is that the mouse is used to perform so many functions that it is very difficult to do what we want to do. I understand that making strings and moving the cat up and down require the mouse's movements but the other functions don't and would be better off if they were performed with a button on the keyboard.
catch your cat
Sally and the cats are really charismatic characters, make me wish for another game with them, what means that the graphics themselves are flawless.
The sound effects and musics are well composed, but replayed too many times, all the stages have the same background music, the same background image too, by the way...
OVERALL : The physics mechanism is interesting, but the game itself gets boring right after a few levels, since all of them look the same to me. By the same reason, i doubt the game have a good replay value.
Endearing and fun!
This is one of the more challenging physics games I've played, which isn't really a bad thing. It's a blast to play and the game is very cute. The music is a great touch. :3

Dr. Bassleer Biofish Food Acai XL with the berries of the Acai palm tree in the grain size 1.2 - 1.6 mm for all fish up to 10 cm.
Dr. Bassleer Biofish Food Acai XL contains the berries of the acai palm tree. The fruit with an exceptional high nutritional value was discovered in Brazil and has triggered a large health boom for human consumption. In his Amazonian expeditions, Dr. Gerald Bassleer discovered that even fish love to eat the Acai (pronounced "Assa-i") berries, when they fall into the water from the palm tree. The fruit is very health-promoting and has amazing effects. By purely natural ingredients, fish develop a naturally strong, intense staining. Feeding with Dr. Bassleer Biofish Acai leads to more success in breeding fish.
Complete food for ornamental fish
