The Role of Court Appointed Counsel In Guardianship Proceedings
by: Ethan Ordog
While an initial Guardianship consult provides a client a substantial amount of information pertaining to the process and requirements for such a filing, it is important to recognize and explain the role of Court Appointed Counsel. Pursuant to Rule 4:86-4(b), the Court is obligated to appoint legal counsel to represent persons who are alleged to be mentally incapacitated. At a minimum, the Court Appointed Attorney, in representing his or her client, has the responsibility of meeting with the alleged incapacitates person, make inquiries of persons having knowledge of the individual's circumstances, including but not limited to family, friends and professionals, and reviewing, and if necessary obtaining, information related to the individual's financial and medical background.
In many cases, upon investigation by Court Appointed Counsel, there is little question as to incapacity. However, in certain cases, the issue of mental incapacity is a close question of fact and the Court Appointed Attorney may request that the Court require a further independent evaluation to assess the alleged incapacitated person's capacity. Additionally, the Court Appointed Attorney must also assess the propensity of the proposed Guardian to serve in such an appointed fiduciary capacity. Specifically, while the next of kin of the individual have statutory priority in serving as Guardian, it is important for the Court Appointed Attorney to ensure that the appointed individual(s) shall make decisions, specifically related to the alleged incapacitated person's medical, personal and financial needs, in his or her best interest.
In all cases, a Court Appointed Attorney must be aware of the obligations and responsibilities inherent in such a representation. Specifically, the Court Appointed Attorney acts as an advocate for the interests of the alleged incapacitated person and should take an active role in the proceedings. Furthermore, the Rules of Professional Conduct mandate that an attorney representing a disabled person maintain, as much as possible, a normal attorney-client relationship. In fulfilling his or her obligation to the alleged incapacitated person, the Court Appointed Attorney seeks to preserve that client's rights and interests, including the retention of decision making on specific matters, when appropriate. As such, the Court Appointed Attorney should promote the alleged incapacitated person's objectives and act with reasonable diligence in representing and advocating on the alleged incapacitated person's behalf. The Court Appointed Attorney shall be required to communicate with the alleged incapacitated person in order to see that the individual's opinions and preferences can be disclosed to the Court, provided that such opinions or preferences are not patently absurd or pose an undue risk of harm. In the Matter of M.R., 135 N.J. 155 (1994).
Even if incapacity is uncontested, an alleged incapacitated person may still have the ability to understand matters affecting his or her well being. However, in the event that the alleged incapacitated person's preferences and position is in conflict from what the Court Appointed Attorney believes may be in his or her client's best interest, a Guardian Ad Litem may be appointed. Such additional Counsel shall be given the task of assessing the individual and their needs and making independent recommendations to the Court. The Guardian Ad Litem, who is generally also appointed by the Court, is independent of either party and simply seeks to ensure that the Court and all parties are fully apprised of the facts and circumstances surrounding a pending application for guardianship and the corresponding issues presented therein.
In fulfilling the role as Court Appointed Counsel, the following procedure is typical and should be anticipated and expected by an applicant for guardianship:
1. Court Appointed Counsel shall typically reach out to the Petitioner, or their attorney, as the case may be, to obtain background information, including the pleadings, physicians certifications and other relevant documentation.
2. Court Appointed Counsel shall interview the alleged incapacitated person so that his or her condition may be observed and reported. Additionally, an examination of medical records, in addition to the required physician's affidavits, shall be examined. In certain cases, the Court Appointed Attorney may speak to the physicians about their opinions to better understand the functional ability of the alleged incapacitated person.
3. Court Appointed Counsel shall interview the proposed Guardian and elicit the individual's intentions for the future care of the alleged incapacitated person as well as that person's qualification to serve as guardian. The Court Appointed Counsel will most likely also communicate with other next of kin, as necessary, if questions exist or in further support of the proposed Guardian(s).
4. Court Appointed Counsel shall also make reasonable inquiry concerning the alleged incapacitated person's assets. Specifically, the Court Appointed Counsel will identify assets not included in the guardianship pleadings and determine if there has been any issues in the management of such accounts previously or if outstanding issues which remain are dealt with appropriately.
5. Court Appointed Counsel shall also determine whether the alleged incapacitated person has ever executed a power of attorney, advanced healthcare directive/living will and/or Last Will and Testament.
Following a review of all the applicable information, Court Appointed Counsel shall, in advance of the hearing date for the guardianship proceeding, provide a report to the Court, therein setting forth any consideration and findings made by the attorney, but more importantly setting forth his or her recommendation regarding a determination of capacity as well as the suitability of the proposed guardian. Furthermore, based upon the particular facts surrounding the matter, Court Appointed Counsel shall set forth any less restrictive alternatives which might be available and what areas of decision making he or she believes should be retained by the alleged incapacitated person. Additionally, based upon the assets/income attributable to the alleged incapacitated person, Court Appointed Counsel shall make a recommendation with respect to any surety bond which must be obtained prior to a guardian serving and/or having control of the alleged incapacitated person's assets. Additionally, Court Appointed Counsel shall also make any other suggestions regarding care and/or potential programs or benefits which the guardian may pursue on behalf of the alleged incapacitated person. Typically, Court Appointed Counsel shall also submit a certification of services rendered with a request for approval from those assets attributable to the alleged incapacitated person. Such fees and costs are usually separate and apart from any fees owed to Petitioner/Plaintiff's attorney. In the event that funds are not available, Court Appointed Counsel may simply provide representation without compensation, accept payments in installments until payment is received and/or request that those funds owed be fronted by the Petitioner or other individual related to the alleged incapacitated person.
Obviously, in recognizing the substantial determination which is sought by a guardianship filing, it is important to understand the process fully and completely. Moreover, it must always be recognized that any individual involved be candid and open with Court Appointed Counsel, as well as any Court/ Surrogate staff, to ensure that information is available and presented in a manner which will allow for the establishment of a guardianship which accurately meets the alleged incapacitated person's needs.

You're on top of the game. Thanks for shngair.
Your story was really inviematofr, thanks!
So that's the case? Quite a reevliaton that is.


With the latest build (LRTimelapse 4.6 (2016-03-17) Build: 111), I've lost the ability to play the visual previews until they are all rendered.
I really like being able to play the previews early on, so I can get an early idea of how my edits are working. It's not common, but there have been times I've stopped the visual preview renders and gone back into Lightroom because I can see something hasn't worked.
At the moment, I'm using a PC running Windows 10 (I haven't checked to see if I get the same behaviour on my Mac, apologies).
This was an intended change. When playing back while the previews were still not completed it would have begun "flickering" at the end, where the previews were still not there that's why I removed it. It's in the announcement for the new version too. I'll move this to the feature requests and think about it once more.
1) watching the first 30% or so to ensure that any edits I've done are looking good.
2) watching the whole preview before I render from LR (which is why you've given us the ability to preview, I'm sure).
fabulous implementation in LRT5, thanks!!


Let's take a side trip from Cleveland to the Bronx, from Metropolis to Gotham.
Even before I sold Boys of Steel, I knew what I wanted to write about next: Batman. More precisely, the creation of Batman. Even more precisely, the co-creator of Batman whose name is not on every Batman story.
I talked to or e-mailed with more than 200 people during an intensive year of research; I've got the Palm entries to prove it. Many of them knew Bill personally. Some, such as Bill's old friend and champion Arnold Drake, have since passed away.
I staked out his former residences, scrolled through decades of New York Times obituaries and microfiched phone books, cold-called every Finger in Florida.
In a series of increasingly more exciting moments, I found the Bill Finger no fan has yet discovered.
I found the one time Bill was quoted in The New Yorker.
I found his only known handwritten note, including signature (more revealing than the 1963 promise to Julius Schwartz that he would not ask for advance checks).
His longtime writing partner and friend and class A gentleman Charles Sinclair.
His heretofore unmentioned second wife.
His sister—who was still alive at age 88 when I found her a year ago this week.
His only granddaughter, who is a few years younger than I am.
If you know anything about Bill's immediate family, this last one will make no sense to you. Yet.
This is my plan: as we get close to the August publication of Boys of Steel, I will begin to reveal these never-before-heard stories about the first son of Gotham, Bill Finger.
There's a third, a grainy photo of him from Green Lantern #1 (1940), but that's rarely seen.
More than a couple comics historians told me with authority that those are the only Finger photos in existence. What they meant is those are the only known Finger photos in existence. There are more. You just have to ask everyone you talk to.
Of those 200+ people, seven sent me never-published photos of Bill, totalling ten "new" images at Bill Finger from the early 1930s to the late 1960s (even one of his desk). All but one are better quality than the three that have been published.
I will share more when the time is right.
3/25/08 addendum: I forgot to mention that I got this photo from Bill's second wife. It's the only one she had. "We weren't photo people," she said.
Amazing! Makes me want to take my own research to the next level instead of "playing it safe."
Looking forward to some interesting information! Thanks for being the researcher you are, Marc.
Looking forward to learning more about Bill's history.
As I mentioned on the DC Comics message boards, this is really exciting!
Can't wait to hear / see what you found out.
This is a man who needs much more recognition than he currently has.
Truly a Giant in the comics and popular culture field.
There's a wonderful BBC documentary (a favourite of mine) that aired in the UK in the late 80s where Fred Finger was briefly interviewed.

Fatal error: Call to undefined function NOW() in C:\xampp\htdocs\copytimeline\timeline1\insert.php
it seems that NOW() belongs in sql statements not in the array. can someone help me to fix that.
thanks
$statement = $db->prepare('INSERT INTO tb ( session_id,timing)

                     ':timing'=> NOW()
        ));

A: The MySQL function NOW() can't be passed as a variable.  You need to include it in your query.
$statement = $db->prepare('INSERT INTO tb (session_id, timing)
    values
    (:session_id, NOW())');

$statement->execute(array(
    ':session_id' => $session_id
));

See MySQL PDO NOW() as assigned value - is it possible?

This is what happens when you forget to check the oil level in your car.
I ruined my car as a teenager by not changing the oil.
I also ruined a childhood car similar to this but mine threw the rod at 80 mph on the highway after downshifting and seizing because of low/no oil. We had just fixed the thing and were deciding if the oil gauge was working or not. Nope.
and I'm still wondering what it looks like. The blurry man made the box thing go loud.
Yeah it's all good. Just a joke.
How can it even run with no head?
The car is being pulled by the truck.
I always tell my friends, do regular oil changes if nothing else. Any other neglect can be corrected for far less expense.
Yeah and coolant is just as important. You dont have to know anything about cars to know if you have enough oil and coolant. Easiest things to check and the most important.
Lots of new cars dont even have dipsticks anymore. They are monitored by a sensor and the dashboard would let you know if it needs oil.
Can I just add oil like the guy did in the video, instead of doing an oil change? My dipstick shows it at about a fifth of the way up from MIN, the oil itself is light brown.
By all means, add oil if the level is low. This isn't a replacement for regular oil changes, however. Those need to happen around5-7000 miles depending on the quality of oil you buy.
What if your car eats/drinks/leaks so much oil that it becomes very low in just a matter of a couple of months? Basically completely replacing the oil every time.
You take it to the mechanic.
Guess so. We've done about all we can for it at home.
Replaced the valve gasket of the engine and the spark plugs.
The middle two sparks plugs were covered in oil when we pulled them out. (Not the tip part, just around the threads.
The filter is still collecting debris and clogging up. You could swap just that at the interval and be maybe okay.
Yeah the oil filter is pretty easy to replace.
Changing the oil fully (draining it and putting more in) isn't that difficult to do at home anyway, no reason not to do it at least occasionally, like before a road trip.
You change the oil on a regular interval just the same. My car has used a quart of oil every 3,000 miles since almost new and the manufacturer claimed this was within spec. But we still do changes every 7,500 miles or so because this also replaces the filter and gets rid of anything dissolved in whatever oil does remain between top-ups.
I'm actually surprised they haven't started covering this when people learn how to drive. Being aware of basic maintenance should be a prerequisite to operating 1500kg of machinery.

Tuesday 31st May- Australian Market Wrap | Beeks Downunder-Because not all financial news is boring!
ASX 200 closes down 29.4 points to 5378.6 after toying with 5400 again and finishing near its low. Financials and industrials slip across the board in lacklustre trade. AUD jumps to 72.4 cents on better economic numbers whilst China posts strong gains up 3.04% and Tokyo up 1.05% US Futures closed.
After a very soggy start to the day primarily due to weakness in the banking sector the market clawed its way back into the game and above 5400. The early weakness may have been attributed to yet another hybrid issue from the banking sausage machine that churns them out in order to keep retail brokers in school fees. The 1% commission is a life line and the appetite seems to be insatiable for the product with yield hungry investors. It does however sap demand for the underlying equities and we saw some selling of underlying shares to make room for the hybrids.
Better than expected export number helped the AUD kick back above 72 cents and this too dragged the market higher as it popped above the seemingly magnetic 5400 level. Consumer stocks were dragged a little lower as media reports on the rise of Aldi hurt both Wesfarmers and Woolworths.
Dalian iron ore futures in China, up 1% helping.
Standard and Poor's has highlighted their fears on the looming apartment glut just as banks slow their lending down leaving some settlement risk. Brisvegas seems to be following Sydney and Melbourne in the avalanche of units being built.
Stage is set for an interesting GDP release after the stronger export numbers today. Economists are busy revising their GDP estimates back up towards 3%. Glenn and his pals will be watching closely to see if they panicked too much.
Resources: Second liners doing well with Lithium continuing to attract traders and investors. Orocobre (ORE)+5.58% and Pilbara Minerals (PLS)-0.76% after broker upgrades and research.
Energy: Some profit taking as we head into the OPEC meeting which starts on Thursday. Woodside (WPL)-2.39% the biggest casualty.
Gold: The sector continues to show signs of life lurching from sell off to rally. Newcrest (NCM)+1.33% and Resolute Mining (RSG)+8.54% the two performers.
Financials and Banks: Softer early but staged a good turnaround during the session only to turn negative at the close. The winner was Clydesdale Bank (CYB) +2.65% again as the rally continues. Commonwealth Bank (CBA) -0.96% the worst. Wealth Managers enjoying some positive momentum, Platinum Asset Management (PTM)+1.7% the standout.
Industrials: Consumer stocks doing well Beacon Lighting (BLX) +2.31% continue to bounce back as better construction numbers and home sales help home maker retailers. RCG Corp (RCG)+3.38% and Baby Bunting (BBN)+1.69%.
Speculative Stock of the Day: Another day another Lithium Story. Latin Resources (LRS)+40% after claiming 70,000 hectares in Lithium Pegmatite district in Argentina.
IPO Sky and Space Global (SAS) +40% debuts on the ASX after raising $4.5m. Narrowband communication through nano-satellites in case you were interested.
National Bank (NAB) -0.37% has launched a $750m Hybrid issue today with quarterly distributions at a margin of 4.95%-5.1% over BBSW. (Yes remember that was the one allegedly fixed).
Flexigroup (FXL) -6.79% today announced a $30m write off today with the finish of its enterprise, paymate and telco business unit. They also announced they will separate the Blink, Think Office and Flexi Enterprise Brands. They said it now expected its FY2016 cash profit, excluding impairments, to hit $97m, up 8 % on last year. The number represents an improvement from prior forecasts for a $92m-$94m reading, although it falls just shy of analyst forecasts.
ALS (ALQ)-2.88% Investor day following the downgrade yesterday. Brokers expecting more downgrades to come.
Spark Infrastructure (SKI) and Duet (DUE)-0.84% have reported that SKI has used the current strong share price to exit its stake in Duet over a period of time. They sold 8% at 225 cents.
Wesfarmers (WES)-2.1% back in the spotlight following a Fair Work Commission tribunal decision that found that it had underpaid 77,000 workers at Coles with lower penalty rates and casual loadings. It is expected to cost Coles millions in back pay.
Oil Search (OSH)-1.31% gets important backing of its US$2.2bn takeover of InterOil from Institutional Shareholder Services (an unfortunate ISS tag). However, some brokers have suggested it will have to sweeten its cash offer for the company.
First quarter net exports will add a strong 1.1 % to GDP growth. The current account deficit shrank to $20.8bn in the first quarter, down from $22.6bn.
Private sector credit growth remained within expectations, rising 0.5 % in April.
New housing approvals rose in April to their highest monthly level in six months, pushed by an 8 % rise in apartments, townhouses and semi-detached dwellings.
The total 20,243 new homes given the tick by planning authorities was the most since October. The number of apartments approved for construction rose to 10,490 from 9,650 in March – also the highest since October's 10,838 – even as approvals of new detached houses fell 1.9 % month on month to 9,695.
Chinese stocks surged Tuesday in the largest one-day gain in two months, on hopes it may soon be included soon in an influential global benchmark, MSCI Emerging Market Index.
Strange times though as the Chinese futures market plunged by its daily limit of 10% in one minute only to recover again as quickly. Volume has dried up in the stock index futures markets in China and this is the second such unexplained crash in futures this month. A similar one occurred in Hong Kong on May 16th. Not a great look for a market trying to get the world to take it seriously.
Output rose 0.3 % (versus 1.5 % decline forecast) from March, when it gained 3.8 %.

Q: How to print preview a selection? When printing (file->print...) there's the possibility of printing just the current selection. This is useful for printing just a couple of cells, or some chapters.
The file menu also has Print Preview, but with no options.
Is there a way of making a print preview of a selection?


I had been wanting to try La Pizzeria for a long time. We actually had our wedding rehearsal dinner at A Bellagio restaurant which has the same owner as La Pizzeria. Based on the food at A Bellagio and the Yelp reviews, I expected La Pizzeria to be pretty outstanding.
TM and I started out with the Insalata Italiana. I don't speak Italian but I'm guessing insalata is salad. It amazes me that ingredients THIS GOOD can be thrown together and be called "salad." This was perfection as it has all of my favorite ingredients put together into one dish. Avocados, fresh mozzarella, tomatoes, basil and pita bread with some drizzled olive oil. I would order this every time.
I ordered the Cotto Funghi pizza. The blurry picture does not give this pizza justice. It was Italian ham and mushroom pizza. The ham was sliced really thin and just salty enough but not overdone.
I can't wait to go back and try some of the other stuff on their menu! I'm hoping we can go this weekend since we live so close now. Did I mention we moved??

ACTION – In Ashti camp in Erbil, where close to 7,000 displaced people live, 38 trailers homes paid by the government of Kurdistan were refurbished by the Brotherhood with Iraq. They offer decent living conditions to 38 families until they are able to go back home.
Among the thousands of families who, in their own country, took refuge in Erbil, the capital of Iraqi Kurdistan, some were able to find houses or apartments to rent since their arrival in 2014. But as months went by, and with them the hope to be able to go back to their villages soon, many can no longer afford the rent.
That is how 38 families, chased from their homes by ISIS, and who had lived in rented houses or apartments, have settled in Ashti camp, in new trailer houses funded by the government of the autonomous province of Kurdistan, and refurbished by the Brotherhood with Iraq.
Construction work started last February. The 4 x 8m trailers (4.3 by 8.7 yards), which are larger and roomier than the other trailers in the camp, were set up in the spring. A true relief for the new residents – about a hundred – who now face the upcoming months with more serenity. Indeed, despite a lower level of comfort, not having to spend a significant amount of money each month greatly changes future prospects.
With one of the re-homed families. Seven adults living in 344-sq ft: the living conditions are austere, but they are better than before, say family members.
"We spent several months in difficult conditions in Shaqlawa, close to Erbil, said the father to members of the Brotherhood with Iraq. We were renting a house with several other families to keep the cost low. Not only were we running out of money to pay the rent, but I also haven't been able to find a job in Shaqlawa. I hope that by settling in this camp close to Erbil, a much bigger city, I will be able to find something…" His son, John, immediately found work in Ashti camp. A blacksmith, he has set up a small business and offers trailer home extensions to the other inhabitants.
The Brotherhood with Iraq funded the trailers' connection to water and power, as well as the installation of water tanks on the roof, just as all other trailer homes in the camp, and interior layout, besides furniture. This last part is left to the families, who often come with their modest belongings, and decorate the walls of these humble houses to their taste.


We have been talking a lot about cancer lately, but for good reason. November is lung cancer awareness month, a time to reflect on the second most common cancer and the leading cause of cancer death among both men and women.
The crazy thing about lung cancer is that the vast majority of these diagnoses can be prevented.
Most are related to smoking (or secondhand smoke), or less often from exposure to radon or other environmental factors.
Of course, some lung cancers occur in people without any known risk factors and it's not yet clear if these cancers can be prevented.
The bottom line here is that if you smoke, you really should quit. About 80 percent of lung cancer deaths are thought to be the direct result of smoking. The longer you smoke and the more you smoke, the greater your risk. Simple.
If you're a non-smoker spending significant time around secondhand smoke, the news is bad for you too – it's thought to cause more than 7,000 deaths from lung cancer each year.
While smoking rates have declined in the city, Staten Island is still reporting the highest in all of the boroughs, with 17.4 percent of residents smoking versus 14.3 percent city wide.
Youth smoking rates are also higher on Staten Island, notes Health and Wellness Director Ginny Mantello, M.D. "It's important to start early with education and awareness, especially since smoking is an addiction and a gateway - like alcohol - to youth experimenting with other substances later in life," she said.
City wide, it's reported that 15,000 public high school students currently smoke cigarettes, a third of whom are predicted to die prematurely as a direct result of smoking. If that's not grim enough, more than 200,000 children are still exposed to secondhand smoke at home, an unacceptably high number.
While smoking is to blame for most lung cancers, some other risk factors include exposure to Radon, asbestos, and other carcinogens (most likely found in certain kinds of work environments), previous radiation therapy to chest, and other situations.
However, there's a conversation to be had with your doctor to determine who needs to be screened for lung cancer. Over-screening can be dangerous as there are levels of radiation in the screening.
"Only in recent years has a study shown that a test known as a low-dose CT scan can help lower the risk of dying from this disease," Dr. Mantello noted.
- Are you 55 to 74 years old?
- Are you in fairly good health and able to tolerate surgery if needed?
- Do you have at least a 30 pack-year smoking history?
• Get your home tested for radon.
• Be careful at work. Health and safety guidelines in the workplace can help workers avoid carcinogens.

Multidisciplinary artist Paige Hernandez (she/her/hers) has been co-commissioned by Children's Theatre of Charlotte (NC), Children's Theater of Madison (WI), Dallas Children's Theater (TX), and The Rose (NE) to create a theatre piece based on Maya Angelou's Poem Life Doesn't Frighten Me. Hernandez will work directly with children in each theater's community to generate the content of the play, using the poem and the illustrations by Jean-Michel Basquiat as inspiration and source material.
"To say that this project feels like a perfect fit is an understatement! I have been a lifelong fan of (Maya) Angelou, (Jean-Michel) Basquiat and specifically of Angelou's poem, Life Doesn't Frighten Me. I have taught this poem for many years and look forward to putting my mindful hip hop aesthetic into a devised children's theatre piece," said Hernandez in a statement.

— Paige Hernandez, Playwright
Hernandez is a critically acclaimed playwright, performer, director, and choreographer, based in the Washington, DC area. As an arts educator, Hernandez has taught all ages, in several art disciplines. To date, she has reached more than 10,000 students, from pre-K through college, in hundreds of residencies, workshops, and performances around the world. Hernandez was named a "Top Theatre Worker You Should Know" by American Theatre Magazine, "40 under 40" by the Washingtonian Magazine, a "Rising Leader of Color" by Theatre Communications Group and a "Citizen Artist" by the Kennedy Center. She is most notably known for her effective fusion of theatre, hip-hop, dance, and education.
"We are thrilled to have Paige Hernandez on board as Playwright for this project," said Arlethia Hailstock, School Performance Coordinator and Staff EDI Lead at Children's Theatre of Charlotte. "Paige is an engaging, energetic, and accomplished artist and educator. Between Angelou's words, the energy of the young people involved in the workshops, and Paige's vision, audiences are in for an incredible experience."

The project will begin with a developmental workshop at Children's Theatre of Charlotte in August 2022 with subsequent premieres to be scheduled at Children's Theater of Madison, Dallas Children's Theater, and The Rose. Hernandez will conduct highly participatory workshops with children ages first grade to teenage in each of the theaters' communities to generate material which will be used in the creation of the play itself. The final production will be appropriate for children ages 4-8 and include visual art, music, dance, spoken word, and other artistic forms.
"The potential of this project and the collaboration between these flagship theatres and their communities takes my breath away. Audiences can expect an experience that is authentic, insightful, and that amplifies the voices of children from several communities throughout the country," said Hernandez.

Projects / Research – Mendrisio 2017
University Library - Gent - Belgium
This project consists in the addition of a new structure which has its own function and design, inside an already built building, in this case an old one, constructed in the 19th century. The Infill aspect of this project properly deals with the existing situation of the building.
This category is for sure appropriate, even though this intervention could also be part of other categories. First of all, this project could fit the Renovation category as the architects transformed this big hall from an old space into completely a new and renovated space. Secondly this intervention could also be in the Conversion category, as the newly built library is now located in an area of the building which had the previous function of Physics hall.
The Redesign category might also be descriptive for this project because the existing hall has now a new aspect and architectural language that deals with the old building as modern answer to the the construction needs. Also, the Addition category could describe this project as the library itself is a new added space to the building.
This category might deal with the Infill one because this addition is actually infilled inside the building and in particular under the balcony of the existing physics hall.
This project is finally so properly inserted in the existing situation that is immediately part of the building, without hiding his new and innovative design.
The chosen color for example, shows for sure that the intervention is a new addition to the ancient building, but it demonstrates also how this library is in a way respectful to its container, even if it shows its modern and practical character.
For the previously written reasons, the University Library is, from a personal point of view, part of many different categories which all have a common factor: transforming some spaces or specific situations into something that has a new aspect and functional form, that respects visually and historically a specific situation.
We could call this new category "Respectful transformation", a combination of different aspects of a building renovation that considers properly the existing situation and shows discreetly its character as an addition.

It might seem odd to begin a post on the Steelers offensive and defensive lines with a quote from a California politician, but his observation is quite relevant, particularly in light of line up changes leading into the Denver game.
At the close of the 2007 season, Mike Tomlin offered that the Steelers needed to "get younger and stronger on both lines." The need was obvious. The NFL is a young man's league, and the average age of the Steelers starting offensive line in 2007 was almost 28. The average age of their starting defensive line was 30.
Despite that, fourth round pick Tony Hills was the only lineman, offensive or defensive, that the Steelers selected during the 2008 draft.
The Steelers opening day starting line in 2008 featured two new starters in Chris Kemoeatu and Justin Hartwig, yet the average age was just over 27 years old.
Father time has a way of working his will in the NFL, and his means of choice is injury. Week's 4 and 5 of the 2008 season brought back-to-back street fights with Baltimore and Jacksonville, during which the Steelers lost starters Marvel Smith and Kendall Simmons.
Things were a little different on the defensive side. Not only was the average age of the starting line higher, but the so were the backups, whose average age was actually a little higher.
Unlike their counterparts on the offensive line, the Steelers defensive front three escaped the injury bug and remained intact through the 2008 season, save for a few games when Bret Kiesel was out.
The Steelers added Ziggy Hood in the 2008 draft, but returning players from 2008 average age was 32, and Hood only dropped the defensive line's mean age to just under 31.
But Once Again, father time has worked his will, this time striking down Aaron Smith for the season with a torn rotator cuff. When Smith went on IR the Steelers have replaced his roster spot with Sunny Harris, who reduced the average age of the line by almost two years.
With Travis Kirschke out for the Denver game, defensive line's average age drops to a full three years below the average of the opening day starting lineup. Mike Tomlin also said Ziggy Hood's playing time would be limited, as he sort of planned to phase him into the line up.
It appears that that plan might have to change too, as the Steelers will need to rotate linemen frequently in the thin Denver air.
Which just goes to show you, Jerry Brown was right. Reality does unfold at its own pace.

A gorup of police officers, security guards and Prampi Makara district authorities were unsuccessful yesterday in their attempts to demolish the remaining makeshift living quarters that are being inhabited by families in the Borei Keila community.
Chum Ngann, representative for the evictees living at the site where their houses were bulldozed in January, said a group of about 100 police officers and authorities armed with shields, electric batons and axes descended upon the site yesterday morning.
She added that residents struggled with the forces, who managed to destroy a few of their makeshift shelters before retreating.
"We haven't had shelter since January 3. Our plastic tents under the roof and stairs are filled with the bad smell of the waste from our last shelters," the representative said yesterday.
Deputy governor of the Prampi Makara district, who was at the scene yesterday, expressed his concern for maintaining public order in the area.
"This kind of set up is tent anarchy, and will affect the environment in the Borei Keila development area," he said.
Tim Sakmony, a resident who helped to repel the authorities yesterday, said the evictees would not be is such a dire situation if the Phan Imex company followed through with their promise to construct 10 buildings in which they could be housed.
Phan Imex only constructed eight of the 10 promised housing structures.
"Who could be happy and wants to live in a terrible situation? We have no choice, so we struggle to live and are waiting to receive a fair solution from the authorities who made us this way," Tim Sakmony said.
Secretariat director for the Housing Rights Task Force Sia Phirum said the authorities are aware of the struggles that the evictees face, but have merely chosen to ignore them.
"Until the residents start to live in houses and have proper businesses, they will live in tents and under stairs. When will the authorities stop this eviction plan and provide additional compensation?" he asked.

We continue to work on building a TSC for the School of Education, School of Social Welfare, Libraries and the Applied English Center, which is called the EJSWL-TSC. Centralization proposals for the School of Music and the School of Law have been approved and centralization efforts are underway. The centralization proposal for the School of Social Welfare is still in progress and Edwards Campus proposal has been approved by both KU IT Leadership and Edwards Campus Leadership; the next steps are to work with HR to move the positions. We continue to review candidates for the KU IT Libraries System Group.
805 servers have been registered to date, 22 of which were captured due to the annual server re-registration process in September. KU IT continues to work to implement server hosting plans and Managed Services Agreements (MSAs) for departmental server hosting.
Network teams continue to move forward on the Changing for Excellence Network Optimization initiatives. The teams are addressing the final overlapping IPs, firewalled networks, and VPN pools. All but one of the School of Engineering networks were completed last week. Over the next two weeks, the networks in Information Technology will be completed. The KU, KUMC, and KanREN team members are working toward a cutover to occur during winter break, which will complete this phase of the Network Optimization project.
This project status remains at urgent status (i.e. Yellow). For AD, this effort remains on hold until the non-technical aspects of the project have been resolved. For META, progress has resumed. KUL has started the process to rename user-accounts outside of KUL IT. KUL IT is completing analysis and planning for impacts to the rest of campus. The team also continues to develop the 'doesUserExist' web service, which will prevent future duplicate user-ids. Additionally, the team continues to work on requirements for data attribute syncing, and management.
The Increase MFD Usage team has completed standard operating procedures for optimizing MFD usage across campus, and is now implementing these processes in lockstep with the Reorganize and Redefine IT Staff and organization team. Working with IT Communications and communications staff in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, we are compiling a master findings document for executive review. Newly centralized MFDs in the School of Law and the School of Music have been evaluated and proposed changes will be brought before stakeholders in these departments for implementation. There was a 16.7% increase in MFD usage for the month of September 2013 versus September 2012 and an annual MFD Usage increase of 22.8%.
This project is complete. We will continue to track progress on this initiative. Savings recognized to date are $469,175.


It took a Louisiana mother six months to learn that police had killed her son during a scuffle. She believed he had died due to brain damage from chronic cocaine use. Now the FBI is investigating his death.
Robert Minjarez Jr. died in March, but it wasn't until the 11-page state forensic pathologist's report was released in August that his mother, Catherine Cortez, learned the truth about his death – which was ruled a homicide by the Lafayette Parish Coroner.
The month of March began with the 30-year-old leaving an emergency room against medical advice after being treated for Rhabdomyolysis, or muscle breakdown. The next day, a clerk at a Lafayette, La., gas station called police to report that Minjarez was standing outside the door, hallucinating, KATC reported.
Officers with the Scott and Carencro Police Departments, as well as deputies with the Lafayette Parish Sheriff's Office, responded to the call. Minjarez was cuffed at his hands and feet, then pinned to the ground by at least three cops, surveillance video showed.
One of the officers told him, "You got 265 lbs on your back, you're not going anywhere," the report said. He was pinned down for four minutes before he stopped breathing.

Enel project is a turnkey solution, as it includes the engineering, construction, complete supply of materials, commissioning and starting up of the equipment to develop the 2640 MW. South Brindisi is one of the biggest coal-fired power plants in the country. It is operated by ENEL Produzione S.p.a. The power plant will utilize coal sourcing from Indonesia and South Africa. The project considers environmental concerns and will aim to take the place of the current outdoor longitudinal coal storage at the power plant. This will involve the implementation of two new domes with a wooden covering structure and an environmental impact almost equal to zero.
In December 2013 Bedeschi started the erection phase of the first dome, while the second one started in April.
In the end of 2015 both installations have been positively tested and accepted by end user.

What do you mean by ambiance?
Ambiance is the atmosphere surrounding an individual or a setting that reflects or affects their mood or perception. It is often described as the feeling in the air, the vibe of a room or situation, or the overall atmosphere that is being created.
While ambiance is affected by tangible items such as the decor, music, and dimmed lighting, it is equally affected by intangible elements such as the attitudes and vibes of those present. All of these elements contribute to the pleasant atmosphere that is created when someone is in the right place.
Ambiance is essential in establishing a mood and the "vibe" of a place and contributes to the overall experience of being in a particular place.
Why is it called ambience?
Ambience is derived from the Late Latin word "ambientia," which translates to "encompassing," and describes the feeling a space or environment conveys. Ambience is widely used to refer to the atmosphere an environment has and the mood it instills in visitors.
In terms of interior design or hospitality, it is the feelings one can sense from the atmosphere, sounds, smells and feeling of the room. Ambience is largely determined by the lighting, furniture, decorations, design and colors used in a space.
It is used to create a welcoming and comfortable atmosphere for guests and to set the mood for events or experiences. The goal of ambience is to create an environment that appeals to people and encourages them to stay and enjoy the atmosphere.
What type of word is ambiance?
Ambiance is an noun, which refers to the mood or atmosphere of an environment. It is often used to describe a setting that is pleasant, calming, and relaxing yet energizing. The term is commonly used in the restaurant business to describe the overall feeling of the establishment, and it is often used in interior design to evoke a particular atmosphere in a room.
Ambiance can be used to describe any environment, whether it is physical or psychological. For example, the ambiance of a romantic restaurant may be different than that of a fast-food chain. It can also be used to describe the atmosphere of a group or conflict.
For example, a heated political debate can be described as having an aggressive ambiance.
How do you use ambience in a sentence?
An example of using 'ambience' in a sentence might be: "The café had a cozy ambience with its dim lighting and soft music playing in the background."
Where did the word ambiance come from?
The word "ambiance" has its origins in early 19th-century French, where it was derived from the Latin word ambiens, which means "surrounding. " Originally, it referred to the physical properties of a space that determined the environment and its atmosphere.
In the 1800s it grew to mean the general feeling of any area or situation, as determined by its capabilities, its occupants or its social atmosphere. More recently, it has also been used to describe the music, sound and overall tone of an event or gathering.
Why do people pronounce ambience as ambiance?
People often interchange the words "ambience" and "ambiance" when describing a certain atmosphere or emotion. While the two words do have similar meanings, some emphasize that there is a key difference between them.
Generally, "ambience" is often used to describe the physical and environmental factors that create a certain atmosphere, while "ambiance" is used to describe the emotional or aesthetic qualities of an atmosphere.
The confusion around the pronunciation of these two words may come from their origin story. The English language took "ambience" from the French language, where it is pronounced "ahm-bees-AHNCE" and has been used for hundreds of years.
While people may continue to pronounce this word with the improper French association, it is important to point out the difference in pronunciation of the two words. "Ambiance" is typically pronounced with a "-ence" sound just like "ambience," however "ambience" is usually pronounced with a "-ahnce" sound.
Therefore, the correct pronunciation of these two words is "ahm-bees" for "ambience" and "ahm-bee-ahnce" for "ambiance. ".
When was the word ambience first used?
According to the Oxford English Dictionary (OED), the word "ambience" was first used in English in the mid-nineteenth century. The earliest recorded use of the word dates back to 1875, when it was used by British author and naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace in a letter he wrote to The Times newspaper.
In his letter, he referred to a "subtle something" in the air of a particular place that could affect one's mood. This idea of atmosphere, or ambience, has since become a common theme in literature, art and film.
A more modern definition of ambience is "a feeling or mood associated with a particular place or situation," according to the OED.
What is ambiance mood?
Ambiance mood is the overall atmosphere or feeling that a certain space conveys. This can include elements such as lighting, color schemes, furniture, music, and artwork. Ambiance mood can be used to create a certain feeling in a specific space and can affect the overall atmosphere.
For instance, subdued tones, calming music, and dim lighting will generally induce feelings of relaxation and calm. On the other hand, bright colors, energetic tunes, and too much light may create feelings of excitement and vibrancy.
Ambiance mood is an important element in creating an overall enjoyable atmosphere and can be a great way to set the stage for an event or night out.
What is the important of good ambiance in a restaurant?
Creating a good ambiance in a restaurant is essential for providing the best customer experience possible. A strong ambiance can provide a sense of warmth, relaxation and even romance, influencing whether visitors return for another meal or not.
A good ambiance also sets the tone for the food and service, and a positive atmosphere can make guests more likely to enjoy their meals and be open to trying something new.
For restaurants, atmosphere is an investment in customer satisfaction, and one that can also pay off financially. Delivering a positive, memorable experience will encourage customers to return for another visit, leave positive reviews online that attract new customers, and even spend more money on food and drinks.
Aside from creating a pleasant atmosphere, having a great ambiance can differentiate a restaurant from competitors and create a unique identity.
Providing good ambiance has become even more important with the increased focus on safe, socially-distanced dining. Customers are now looking for restaurants that are spread out, spacious, and well-ventilated, and all those factors contribute to creating a comfortable and enjoyable atmosphere.
A great ambiance can also make customers feel safer and more confident when dining out, ensuring their overall experience is a positive one.
Overall, creating a great ambiance in a restaurant is an essential part of creating enjoyable customer experiences and lasting memories. Whether it's through colors, music, décor, or atmosphere, restaurants must ensure they're providing customers with the best possible atmosphere to keep them returning and recommending the place to others.
What does ambiance mean in business?
In business, the term ambiance typically refers to the atmosphere or environment in a particular place. It originally came from the French word 'ambiance', which refers to the feeling or mood created by a space or environment.
In business, an ambiance can refer to an atmosphere created by the design, decor, layout, colors, music, and even the behavior of customers and staff. It is closely related to a business's culture, as well as the overall customer experience within the establishment.
When it comes to running a successful business, having a well-constructed ambiance is incredibly important. This is because the atmosphere in a business can affect how customers feel while they're there, as well as their overall impression of the company.
For example, if a business is too noisy, has bad smells, or is overcrowded, it could create an unpleasant environment that affects customers' experiences. By creating a comfortable and inviting atmosphere, businesses can help encourage customers to stay longer and spend more money.
Overall, ambiance is an essential element of successful businesses, as it is closely related to customer satisfaction, loyalty, and brand recognition. By taking the time to carefully craft an atmosphere that is enjoyable for customers and staff alike, businesses can help ensure that people have a positive experience and impression of the company.
Which is correct ambience or ambiance?
The correct spelling of this word is "ambience," which is often used to refer to the surrounding atmosphere or environment of a particular place. This can include the general mood, tone, music, decor, lighting, and other characteristics that are present in the location.
Ambience can affect the experience of the people in the area. For example, a dark and gloomy ambience can trigger feelings of sadness and despair, while a bright and cheerful ambience can bring feelings of joy and happiness.

Announcing the Red Carpet Green Dress Winner: Michael Badger
By Lauren Levinson
Nana Adwo Badger
Photo: Nana Adwo Badger
You may have not heard the name Michael Badger yet—but you will soon as the 20-year-old budding designer is the official winner of the Red Carpet Green Dress contest. ELLE.com has also learned that he is the first male victor, and his sustainable sketch was unanimously chosen by all four judges (Suzy Amis Cameron, Zem Joaquin, Lewis Perkins, and Vivienne Westwood). Westwood will also mentor Badger as he turns his idea into a gown that will be worn by an A-lister at 85th Academy Awards show in February (last year's celebrity was Missi Pyle). The lucky lad will be flown to London to work with Westwood's couturiers.
Badger stood out by using an old recycled sketchbook as a process journal and submitting his design on 100-percent hemp watercolor paper.
His dress is inspired by a volcano and how lava flows. The young creative was born in Ghana and is currently working toward a B.F.A. in fashion design at the Savannah College of Art and Design in Atlanta, Georgia.
"This is such an enormous opportunity," enthused Badger. "I'm thrilled to have the chance to dispel the idea that one must sacrifice glamour and fantasy in order to be eco-friendly, and the idea of working with the incredible icon of fashion design that is Vivienne Westwood is too much. The thought of a dress that once only existed in my head being worn at the Oscars is just mind-blowing."
We're looking forward to seeing his eco-friendly vision come to life during the 2013 Oscars!
