Example Python Usage returns no Events or Issues

The example python code in the Readme.md file generates different output to that which is stated in the Readme.md file.

Stated output:
{u'abc123': {u'meta': {u'date': u'20010101'}, u'sents': {u'0': {u'content': u'At least 37 people are dead after Islamist radical group Boko Haram assaulted a town in northeastern Nigeria .', u'events': [[u'NGAREBMUS', u'NGA', u'190']], u'issues': [[u'ID_EXTREMISM', 1], [u'NAMED_TERROR_GROUP', 1]], u'parsed': u'(ROOT (S (NP (QP (IN AT ) (JJS LEAST ) (CD 37 ) ) (NNS PEOPLE ) ) (VP (VBP ARE ) (ADJP (JJ DEAD ) ) (SBAR (IN AFTER ) (S (NP (JJ ISLAMIST ) (JJ RADICAL ) (NN GROUP ) (NNP BOKO ) (NNP HARAM ) ) (VP (VBD ASSAULTED ) (NP (NP (DT A ) (NN TOWN ) ) (PP (IN IN ) (NP (JJ NORTHEASTERN ) (NNP NIGERIA ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) (. . ) ) )'}}}}

I'm assuming either the docker file has failed to download something or something else has changed which is resulting in this lack of data coming through.

There are no errors or warnings from Python or Docker.

There's a few possible things going on that we need to investigate.

1. PETR2 isn't hitting on the right verb phrases. This is a deeper coding issue with PETR2 and would indicate that we need to change the example sentence.
2. PETR2 is coding things, but it isn't surfacing it through the events field. If you dig into the meta field you'll see:

u'verbs': {u'nouns': [[[u' PEOPLE'], [u'~PPL'], [[u'~']]], [[u' ISLAMIST', u' BOKO HARAM'],
 [u'NGAREBMUS'], [[u'~'], [u'NGAREB', []]]], [[u' NIGERIA'], [u'NGA'], [[u'NGA',[]]]]]}}}}

The verbs: nouns construction is a whole different issue that needs to get cleaned up. This is all related to this issue: openeventdata/petrarch2#15.

I'll see if I can poke around in things, or maybe @ahalterman or @philip-schrodt has some cycles to spare.

Yes, doesn't surprise me at all, but I'm not clear whether we still want to be investing efforts in PETR-2 or are waiting PETR-UD to be deployed. I should have some time to work on this the second half of this month [May] if it is still relevant by that point.
