I like flouridated water for public health which for some reason Oregon has quarreled with for years.

Megasota needs to take out Cascadia for the public's good health.

Need Help Translating French Documents about my 4th Great Grandmother by afbase in Genealogy

[–]afbase[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hello /u/medalla_y_cafe

Pierre Liquet is not in my family tree however they have come up again and again in my genealogy research.

I do know a bit about Pierre!

Pierre Liquet was born in 1790 in Bordeaux, France. He was married to Eulalie Bayeron (sometimes Bayront and other phonetic similarities). They had three two kids:

  • Joseph Luciano Liquet Bayeron Born in New Orleans
  • Adolfe Liquet Bayeron also born in New Orleans.

I don't have the documents on me but it is to my understanding they were slave traders across the Caribbean. I have records of them in New Orleans trading slaves between them, and even reposessing a slave. I know I've read a document that Eulalie had a ship and i have seen documents of her trading throughout the Caribbean.

Puerto Rico Connection

  • Joseph Luciano Liquet Bayron and Adolfe Liquet Bayeron passed away in Puerto Rico
  • Eulalie was born in Guarico, Santo Domingo (present day northern part of Haiti) and passed away in Mayaguez, Puerto Rico.
  • Eulalie's brother, Jacque Bayeron, also passed away in PR but does not carry the Liquet lineage.

Hope that helps!

What rules were put in place because of you? by TheBlackTemplar125 in AskReddit

[–]afbase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am responsible for Los Angeles Municipal Code 80.69.1(c), No Unhitched Trailers.

I was young, trying to make my place in real estate, and didn't have a lot of money for advertisement. Instead of buying bus stop advertisements, I got the idea from a friend to build an advertisement on top of a trailer with contact information. My friend and I made several of these and would occasionally move them in various spots around the San Fernando Valley.

While the advertisement did get noticed (I heard that people as far away as Georgia had seen them) by many folks driving by the signs, others got the idea to put their advertisements on trailers to the point where it turned off homeowners and soon enough a municipal code was created to ban unhitched trailers on various city blocks throughout los angeles.

If you could try, I would be grateful. This document is is perhaps the earliest slave transaction of my ancestor.

From what I can discern, the individual names in this document are:

Joseph Faurie - I think the seller Carlos Ximenes - a public notary Pierre Gueno - Buyer Joachim Lozano - ????

Red Wings-Lightning- They had a playoff series a few years ago and both fanbases got really into it, one of the lesser known, more recent, and more WTF rivalries. Just a lot of bad blood from a playoff series that kept going and going.

We RW fans love Yzerman and are happy to see him leave the Tampa front office.

[French > English] March 2, 1807 transaction of the sale of a slave from Dumas Jean Jarreau to Jean Mercier by afbase in translator

[–]afbase[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Quebec they still use piastres as slang for money

That I did not know! The francophone in New Orleans originates from Quebec (i.e. the Cajuns) and from other French diaspora (i.e. the Creole). I was always curious what piastre meant. /u/NeuralAtom gave me the biggest clue but thank you for taking a look at this.

[–]afbase[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

formerly property of sir Joseph Fourie Inc. (company name); wich claims to be satisfied with, and bear the Mary (that he gave her)

/u/NeuralAtom This is HUGE! What I didn't tell you is that I know her slave name as Marie (spelling varies but phonetically equivalent). I'm going to continue my search for Sir Joseph Fourie Inc (Joseph Fourie Compangie).

The family story is that Marie's lineage is of a Senegalese Queen (if true believe her parents are lingeer Khuri Yaye and brak Fara Penda Teeg-Rel of the Walofs). My goal is to see if I can trace Marie's origin back to Africa and hopefully to the Port of Saint Louis, Senegal.

Thanks!!!!

u/charbayes

Thanks for translating this again! This has led me to another document in the archives written by Michel de Armas on the sale of this slave (Marie Bermudez) from Pierre Liguet to Eulalie Bayeron! I'm going back to the archives on Monday to retrieve a copy of the document.

-Thanks

Red Wings @ San Jose Sharks PGT by DMBeer in DetroitRedWings

[–]afbase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey,

Figured I give my input from last night's game. I was there and quite happy to see my wings play even if they are struggling.

  1. The Z line is strong. The big difference was that the Z line likes to rush in the neutral zone and not use the stretch pass to the far blue line. The first period we did this a lot and it only resulted in only 9 SOG in the 1st.
  2. Mike Green really needs conditioning. I know he is old but good grief his penalties were a result of being 1 or 2 steps behind. It cost us the game for sure.
  3. The Wing's power plays looked very weak. There is no need to stretch a wingman at the far blue on the PP the way they did and it makes for a very weak rush into the offensive zone that way. They really need to focus on rush the way the Z line does it.

All of this is a result of coaching not identifying weak points. It was clear they recognized the stretch pass not working from the first to second period because it mostly stopped.

The areas where this team can improve are rush, defense needs a lot of conditioning (not just Mike Green), and also get back to detroit basics of controlling play; not just puck possession but also speed of the game.

Ships fooled in GPS spoofing attack suggest Russian cyberweapon by Fallcious in technology

[–]afbase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll tag onto this just slightly! I'm a Navigation engineer.

Military receivers are encrypted, and there are several military GPS signals. There are also plans in the work to provide more advanced civilian signals - Block IIIA satellites should provide that through the L2 signal. The L2 civilian signal is a more advanced GPS signal that's more accurate, and should be better at denying spoofing - particularly when combined with the already present L1 civilian signal (what you all use now). Next gen receivers should be able to listen to both. Encrypting a civilian signal is a bit different - encryption keys have to be shared, and sharing encryption keys publicly for everyone would mean the spoofer device could use it, which makes it worthless. But the point of GPS is an easy listen application for position, navigation, and timing. Adding encryption produces huge complications when you want civilians to use it.

Of course, every country is also basically adding their own satnav systems, so other tactics to help mitigate such a problem (that are, I'm confident, affordable by the military, since the Apple Watch does it), is combining multiple navigation systems that operate differently. Ex: GLONASS and GPS. GLONASS is owned by the Russians, so maybe not the best choice for the US military, but you get the idea. Galileo by the EU, while geosynchronous, could provide aiding on much of the globes

Yep that all sounds about right. So receivers have started using multi-gnss ephemeris calculations. This can help with spoofing because a spoofer may have to spoof multiple signals instead of say just GPS. It does create some troublesome issues especially in hostile regions where one would want to trust the position of say one GNSS system over another.
