My latest review sees me going back to an arena I know quite well, the Waveney Sports & Leisure Centre in the Suffolk coastal town of Lowestoft. I've reviewed quite a few professional wrestling shows there, but I'm not reviewing a wrestling show now. We're going to take a look at the DVD release of MMA promotion Fight Factory's debut show Relentless, held just over a year ago.
The show features nine fights, and begins with a grappling contest featuring Fabio Ferrari and Loia Bamgbaia. I suppose you could really call this an exhibition more than anything else, as it was fought over a solitary five minute round. There was lots of feeling out early on before Bamgbaia got the first take down, before Ferrari showed some good transitions. There were a couple of submission attempts, but neither man could get the decisive win, leaving the decision for the judges, who awarded the fight to Ferrari. This wasn't too bad I suppose, but I think that this sort of contest will take some getting used to.
Then it was on to the first MMA fight of the show, beginning with a semi-pro lightweight fight pitting Tom Tailford, the guy who asked me to review this DVD, and Will West. This proved to be a very interesting contest, with both men putting in a good account for themselves, with the pace slowing down somewhat in the second, although Tom put in a bit more work. This was enough to earn him the win. I think the best way I could describe this fight is that although it was enjoyable, both fighters looked a little rough around the edges at times.
Ricky Bryans against Mill Millican at welterweight was next. This was a highly impressive performance from Millican as he went forward early on and scored with a quick take down. From there he showed some good transitions, before Bryans verbally submitted as Millican rained down with a torrent of blows. A good performance from Millican here, while Bryans didn't really seem to have any answer to the onslaught that defeated him.
There was then a break from the MMA action as Jed Molyneaux faced Dan Weiss in a kickboxing match. This was a messy, bad tempered affair, and wasn't that good to watch if I'm being totally honest. There were low blows, punches to the back of the head, long rest periods because of the rules infringements and lots of complaining, which is probably why the performances of both fighters were scrappy to say the least. Weiss won the judges decision, but neither fighter did themselves any credit here.
The next two fights were the proverbial blink and you'll miss it affairs, beginning with Ashley Winn facing Paul Barnett at middleweight. Winn got the quick take down, went for the ground and pound, then took Barnett's back before tapping out after more of Winn's ground and pound. Nice work from Mr. Winn here.
Alex Morris against John Mezzetti at lightweight followed. I'm going to be totally biased with regards to this particular encounter. John Mezzetti and I went to the same school. I was in the same class as his sister Maria, and his Gran and Uncle used to live over the road from me. John also runs the Fighting Fit Martial Arts Academy in my hometown of Cromer. So, with all that out of the way, this one was even quicker than the previous fight. John connected with a hard kick to Morris' ribs. Morris fell to the canvas, and the referee stopped the fight, giving Mezzetti the ten second knock out win. The kick was so loud everyone in the arena probably heard it, and it came as no surprise that Morris was sporting a nasty bruise as the announcement was made. Nice one John.
Light heavyweight action was next, with John Calderwood taking on Francesco Zand. This was another semi-pro fight that went the two round distance. There were quite a few periods of inactivity in the first round, although Zand did pull off a few good transitions. The action slowed down quite a bit in the second, with both men showing some good ground and pound. The judges couldn't separate them though, and declared the fight a draw, although I thought Zand just edged it.
The penultimate fight saw Lee Elliott face Matt West at lightweight. For me this was the perfect example of what a referee shouldn't do. Elliott was absolutely relentless with his punches here, and when the fight went to the ground his ground and pound was even more so, and when West was offering no defence I kept wondering why the referee didn't step in to save him. He soon had to though, as Elliott soon synched in a guillotine choke for the submission win, and while this was a good performance by Elliott, the referee should have ended it much sooner.
The final fight saw Shaun Gruncell facing Dan Cubitt in middleweight action. British MMA fans may remember Cubitt from his appearances for Cage Rage and Ultimate Challenge UK. Cubitt also trains at John Mezzetti's gym, so I can't be completely unbiased here, although I don't really need to, because Cubitt put in a great performance here, almost dominating in every aspect of the fight, from the stand up game to the ground and pound. But he was somewhat unlucky though, in the sense that he couldn't finish Gruncell off, even though he went for a few arm submissions. It wasn't surprising when Cubitt got the judges decision after three rounds of hard fought action. It was a well deserved win.
In conclusion, apart from the messy kickboxing bout, this was a very good show. Granted, a couple of the fighters looked a little rough and ready, but overall this was a very enjoyable show, and although some people may be put off by the lack of commentary, I would definitely recommend to MMA fans who want to sample MMA outside of a UFC octagon.

Sorkin to speak at Westflix
By Maddy Daum on February 12, 2016
Oscar-winning screenwriter Aaron Sorkin (Roxy '19) will be the guest speaker at Westflix Film Festival March 18 at the Arclight Cinemas in Hollywood. The festival is open to the public, and tickets will be sold at the door on a first-come, first-served basis.
Sorkin will be the first screenwriter to speak at the festival since it was created in 2004 by Elizabeth Yale '04. Speakers in the past years have include Tom Hanks, Katherine Bigelow and Alejandro González Iñárritu.
"Experts in the film industry can supply students with words of inspiration for young filmmakers and reflect on their own career path and how it developed from an early interest in high school," Upper School Visual Arts Head Cheri Gaulke said.
Sorkin won the Golden Globe award for best screenplay for "Steve Jobs" and "The Social Network" along with dozens of other nominations in the past 20 years.
"I think that most film students are excited to hear about how he transferred his love of film into a career," said Jenna Thompson '16, one of the five film festival directors. "Getting a guideline or blueprint of how someone else did it so successfully is something that would aid aspiring filmmakers because it seems like such an unattainable goal."
Sorkin is also a screenwriter, producer and playwright. Some of his most renowned works include "Moneyball" and "West Wing."
"I think [Sorkin] will provide us with really valuable insight into what writing for featured-length film is like because it is a different process when you have to condense the content for short films," said Shannyn Schack '16, another festival director.

Q: log4net and "with try" F# I am using log4net in a try with expression and it is not working. I think something is missing but I don't know what.
Here is my code :
let clusterIDArray = try
                         myfunction
                     with
                         log.Fatal("my function is not working")

log.Debug("my function is working")

Any ideas?

A: There are two mistakes in your code snippet:

*

*You didn't execute your function. I suppose that you did execute it in your real code; it's the matter of making up an example.

*You didn't catch exceptions or your try...with... block is not syntactically correct.

Assuming that we catch exceptions and return an array in any case, a more idiomatic way of logging could be:
let clusterIDArray =
    try
       let result = myfunction args // Assume args are arguments declared before
       log.Debug("my function is working")
       result
    with
    | ex ->
       // ex is of type exception which can be parsed by log4net
       log.Fatal("my function is not working: ", ex)
       [||]

A: It is hard to say without knowing what the myfunction is, but as you wrote it, the code does not actually run the function. It simply returns it as a value (from the try .. with block) and assigns it to the clusterIDArray value, so the code will never throw.
If the function takes just a unit argument, you can call it inside the try .. with block like this (if it takes some arguments, you'll need to give them to the function inside the block):
let clusterIDarray =
  try
    myfunction ()
  with _ ->
    log.Fatal("not working")
    reraise() // You still need to return something here or rethrow the exception

log.Debug("my function is working")

EDIT As others noted, the syntax with e is not valid. You need to write with e -> or with _ -> if you want to ignore the exception.

Bilal's gonna make you sweat; Credit: Rebecca Haithcoat
Live Review: Bilal at the Echoplex
Rebecca Haithcoat October 29, 2010
Barely thirty minutes into his set last night at the Echoplex, Bilal was bringin' it on home–but that's not to say he'd already finished. Sure, his beaten-up black leather jacket had been stripped off, his t-shirt was drenched, and sweat clung even to his eyelashes, but as he removed his glasses and mopped at his face with a towel, he grinned. You ready? he seemed to ask. 'Cause I can go alllll night.
With lyrics like "Did I hear you say, 'come harder, baby,'" from Love for Sale's "White Turns to Grey," Bilal wasn't playing coy. Nor was he playing gently. Though he eased in with the first couple of songs, "Something To Hold On To" is only the equivalent of foreplay when considered against the rest of his body of work during the evening.
Giving you something you can feel; Credit: Rebecca Haithcoat
But like a good lover, he knows how to begin, and "Something To Hold On To" gives Bilal the chance to tell you what all he wants to do for you. Ranging from throatier sensuality to his signature ecstatic falsetto, the lyrics are a letter (or text) dashed off after waking at 4 AM in a lovesick sweat. He finished the song with soft riffs that almost sounded like pants.
Warm-up complete, he dove full force into his impressively active two-hour set. After seeing him perform well, but far less energetically, earlier this year at the UCLA Jazz Festival, his animation was a surprise.
That's probably due to the venue. Bilal's background is heavily jazz-influenced, and the Echoplex at midnight must feel a lot more comfortable than mid-afternoon on a cavernous outdoor stage. In fact, Bilal played the Echoplex like an even smaller, cozier hole of a club, bouncing beside his (excellent) band, bumping and grinding, breaking into improvisation. His interaction with the crowd was conversational. He wore confidence like that motorcycle jacket slung around him at the open of the show.
He never slowed down, either. "Sometimes,"a seven-minute track from his debut album, 1st Born Second that begins as a slow burn and climbs frantically, started to feel like the climax of the night. Nope, another false alarm.
His peak finally seemed to come with "All Matter," a rock-tinged single from the just-released Airtight's Revenge. Bilal stomped, ran in place, and matched his band beat for beat with his vocals until his shirt was nearly soaked through. Back to the audience, head bowed to his chest, body slowly pulsing as the music faded, he was at last spent.
Not so fast. The crowd, who'd wilted so much they were willing to let the man who keeps going and going to, well, go, needed a shove from host Vikter Duplaix. After he encouraged them to shout Bilal back out, the band returned for thirty more minutes and their recent rendition of Soft Cell's "Tainted Love."
Watching her watch him; Credit: Rebecca Haithcoat
Miss Jack Davey of J*Davey, who, along with Coco of Quadron, had opened, suddenly appeared on the front row. Throwing her arms in the air, and her body into the funked-up remix, she shouted at Bilal. Her fiercely sexual set had ended over two hours before, but the feverish energy onstage seemed a siren call. If he wasn't ready to stop, neither was she.

Researchers identify predictors of timely enrollment in treatment for opioid use disorder
PROVIDENCE, R.I. [Brown University] — For people living with opioid use disorder, the path to treatment is not always clear-cut. Sometimes, there's no path at all.
The gap between those recommended for medications for opioid use disorder — with methadone, buprenorphine or other medications prescribed — and those who ultimately receive it is wide and persisting. At the epicenter, accounting for more than one third of individuals with an opioid use disorder, are Medicaid recipients.
In an effort to gather information that might help to close that gap, researchers at the Brown University School of Public Health analyzed Medicaid databases to identify predictors of timely enrollment in treatment for those who experienced an opioid overdose or were diagnosed with opioid use disorder.
The findings, published in the journal
Drug and Alcohol Dependence, show that 58% of Medicaid recipients did not enroll in treatment within six months of an overdose, and that prior overdose, alcohol use disorder and back problems were predictors of non-enrollment. Conversely, frequent visits to the emergency room or a primary care provider were associated with timely enrollment.
The researchers used multiple linked, state-level databases available through the Rhode Island Executive Office of Health and Human Services to conduct the study of 17,449 Medicaid recipients in Rhode Island.
"These findings underscore the need to enhance pathways to treatment, and we provide several recommendations to that end," said Alexandria Macmadu, study author and a Brown doctoral candidate in epidemiology.
By pinpointing predictors of enrollment, and non-enrollment, researchers and physicians can get a clearer sense of where they need to connect with people to encourage treatment: in settings that provide mental health care, emergency departments, treatment programs for other substance use disorders, and even pain clinics.
Based on the findings, the researchers generated a two-tiered approach to enhance existing systems of care and ensure maximum exposure to pathways to treatment for OUD at the state level.
Interventions in these high-impact settings to improve screening for OUD and referrals to treatment are among the first steps in stemming the opioid epidemic, the researchers say.
"When it comes to treatment for opioid use disorder, we need to meet people where they are," said Brandon Marshall, an associate professor of epidemiology at Brown and corresponding author of the study. "We can have the best treatment options out there, but they won't do any good if we can't deliver these options in a timely, accessible and non-judgmental way to everyone who might benefit."
Because frequent visits to a primary care provider or emergency department were closely tied to receiving timely treatment, Macmadu said that's a great place to start — and Rhode Island is already a national leader in that regard, she noted. Compared to other states, medications for OUD are easy to access, available when needed and covered by insurance. There are no waiting lists for the treatment, and enrollment has been growing steadily for several years, according to data from multiple state health agencies.
"Emergency department-based initiation is an incredible approach to use," Macmadu said. "These findings have tremendous implications for other states that wish to replicate the increased engagement in treatment we've been able to achieve in Rhode Island."
In addition to screenings and early interventions, Macmadu said that establishing on-demand buprenorphine induction — in which patients receive their first dose of the medication — at key facilities and incorporating peer recovery specialists — individuals who are in recovery themselves and can help to engage and support peers in the early stages of recovery — into overdose response are key to mitigating barriers to treatment.
Not all solutions are health care-based, however. Medicaid recipients tend to be lower-income than the broader population, and enhancing transportation support would have a remarkable impact their ability to receive the care they need.
"If you would like to engage in treatment, but you don't have transportation, or you have to navigate the logistical issues of childcare, it can be incredibly difficult," Macmadu said.
Above all, the researchers agree that the simplest, most impactful step toward stemming the tide of overdose is removing the stigma associated with medications for OUD.
Despite years of research that show medications for OUD are the most effective, evidence-based treatment, there is an enduring misconception among patients, physicians and the public that if a person is a patient at a methadone clinic, they're still addicted to something, and that it's not "real recovery," Macmadu explained.
Kimberly Paull, director of data and analytics at EOHHS and one of the co-authors of the paper, said one of the most critical findings of the study was uncovered during focus group conversations with participants — that no improvement is possible if negative beliefs about medications for OUD persist.
"If we have bias, fear and discrimination about treating a disease with a medication, we are hurting people," Paull said. "We are not showing up to save lives."
In addition to Macmadu, Marshall and Paull, other co-authors on the paper were Rouba Youssef, Sivakumar Batthala, Kevin H. Wilson, Elizabeth A. Samuels and Jesse L. Yedinak. This study was supported by the State Opioid Response grants programs administered by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. This work was also supported by the Center for Biomedical Research Excellence on Opioids and Overdose, which is funded by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (P20GM125507).

© Monica Almeida/The New York Times Carly Fiorina with former Gov. Jeb Bush of Florida, left, and Gov. Scott Walker of Wisconsin at the Republican presidential debate at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, Calif., last week.
Carly Fiorina was ready when CNN's Jake Tapper asked her to respond to criticism about her record at Hewlett-Packard during last week's Republican debate.
What Mrs. Fiorina did not mention was that the ad — which cost roughly $140,000 — was paid for by the "super PAC" supporting her presidential candidacy. The same group, Carly for America, has gathered video footage of the venture capitalist, Thomas J. Perkins, praising Mrs. Fiorina, and it could be used in television or Internet ads in the weeks ahead.
The moves are part of an extensive effort by Mrs. Fiorina and her supporters to redefine her rocky business reputation and fend off attacks on her as an unfit and heartless executive. Such accusations helped doom her 2010 Senate campaign in California. Democrats called her "Carly Fail-orina" and the incumbent Senator Barbara Boxer depicted her as the face of corporate greed.
But Mrs. Fiorina's mission to reshape her business image is colliding with a painful new chapter for the computer maker: Hewlett-Packard announced last week that it would slash as many as 30,000 jobs as part of a restructuring that will divide the tech behemoth into two publicly traded companies, which Mrs. Fiorina's detractors view as a repudiation of her legacy.
Mrs. Fiorina drew effusive praise for her performance in the debate, and she is attracting enthusiastic crowds on the trail. But the growing attention will bring more scrutiny to her record amid a resurgence of economic populism and uneasiness over income inequality in both parties.
Still adamant that she was a successful chief executive, Mrs. Fiorina is acutely aware of the vulnerabilities her past presents in this race. But she also risks becoming bogged down in a defense of her record at the expense of her message as a political outsider who would bring conservative change to Washington — a message that has resonated with voters in recent weeks.
In 2012, Mitt Romney, the Republican nominee for president, was attacked by Democrats blaming him for layoffs at companies controlled by Bain Capital, the firm at which he made his fortune. The barrage helped convince voters that Mr. Romney lacked an understanding of ordinary people's problems.
And unlike Mrs. Fiorina, whose entire résumé has come from the private sector, Mr. Romney spent four years as governor of Massachusetts.
At every step of her career, Mrs. Fiorina has thrived on being an outsider. As a young executive at AT&T, she discovered a talent for sales in an often coarse and sexist culture. In 1999, after helping to take Lucent Technologies public, Mrs. Fiorina was named chief executive of Hewlett-Packard, making her the first woman to lead a Fortune 20 company.
But her knack for self-elevation brought grumbling within the Palo Alto, Calif., pioneer's corporate ranks.
The centerpiece of those deals was the company's $24.2 billion merger with Compaq Computer, which divided the HP board and greatly increased the work force, size and breadth of the company's products.
But the merger, which was announced just before the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks and the subsequent dot-com downturn, also led to painful consolidation, cost cutting and layoffs that later haunted Mrs. Fiorina's Senate race.
In November, HP will shed 10 percent of its work force and split into two companies, one devoted to corporate information technology, including cloud computing, the other focused on printers and personal computers.
While some analysts say the Compaq merger saved the company and HP's planned split has to do with years of bad decisions involving a series of chief executives, others say the latest saga began with Mrs. Fiorina's grand acquisitions, which never yielded the profits or economies of scale she and her successors anticipated.
Mrs. Fiorina defends her tenure, armed with statistics that sounded like a PowerPoint presentation. The support of Mr. Perkins, a former HP board member and founder of one of Silicon Valley's biggest venture capital firms, could prove critical in making her argument stick.
But much of that growth resulted from the Compaq acquisition. Profits as a percentage of revenue in the six years Mrs. Fiorina served as chief executive declined about 40 percent. The stock price fell sharply. Mrs. Fiorina blames the burst of the dot-com bubble for the drop, but HP shares fell by more than the stocks of competitors like Dell, IBM, Intel and Microsoft.
Mrs. Fiorina's political rivals have also highlighted that she ushered in a period of corporate scandal, including public clashes with members of the Hewlett family. Fired in 2005, she left with more than $42 million in severance, stock options and pension.
Mrs. Fiorina seemed poised to offer Ms. Boxer a vigorous challenge in 2010. Democrats were under siege in the midterm elections, and Mrs. Fiorina was an engaging outsider who spoke eloquently about her rise from secretary to C.E.O. and about surviving breast cancer.
But after Mrs. Fiorina emerged from a relatively smooth primary (with the exception of a bizarre ad that portrayed her opponent as a demonic sheep), the Boxer campaign unleashed attacks on her HP record. The barrage came against the backdrop of the state's more than 12 percent unemployment rate.
In one ad, called "Outsourced," footage showed Mrs. Fiorina defending sending jobs overseas. "When you're talking about massive layoffs, which we did, perhaps the work needs to be done somewhere else," she said.
In an interview last month, Mrs. Fiorina said she had made enemies at HP by challenging the status quo, and she pointed to other ousted chief executives, including Steve Jobs. "Of course there's going to be scrutiny on my business record, and there should be," Mrs. Fiorina said.


This study aimed at comprehending the duty, role, and difficulty of intermediary manager through in-depth investigation of dental hygienist intermediary managers experienced over 10 years working in a dental clinic. In-depth interviews were conducted with 10 dental intermediary managers and Giorgi's analysis method was used to analyze the data. Findings revealed that the work experience of the dental hygienist intermediary managers appeared in the range of "becoming an intermediary manager through various processes", "various duties that they experience as an intermediary manager", "difficulty as an intermediary manager", "ability that they perceive as necessary for being a dental intermediary manager", and "worthiness they feel as the intermediary manager". The dental intermediary managers complained of difficulties at work, and appeared to perform various tasks such as human resource management, clinic management support, and patient's management. Accordingly, the researcher considers that research on dental intermediary managers' capacity development necessary.

Court Allows Wife of Criminal Defendant to Amend Challenge to Forfeiture of Allegedly Commingled Assets on Due Process Grounds
Categories: Forfeiture, Sentencing, Tax Fraud, White Collar Crime
In United States v. Daugerdas, the Court (Walker, Lynch, Chin) offered a lifeline to the wife of a defendant convicted of tax fraud, who sought to assert a third-party interest in funds that the Second Circuit had previously determined were forfeitable to the government as proceeds of the defendant's crimes. The U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York concluded that petitioner Eleanor Daugerdas failed to state a claim that she was entitled to retain funds that her husband, defendant Paul Daugerdas, had gratuitously transferred to her.[1] She sought to argue that the tainted funds had been commingled with legitimately earned funds prior to their transfer and therefore could not easily be traced back to Paul's crimes. But the question of whether the seized funds arose from Paul's criminal activity had been decided in the affirmative by the district court as part of Paul's sentencing. As a result, the district court held that Eleanor could not relitigate the issue of whether those funds should be characterized not as criminal proceeds but as substitute assets, which would require the government to seek forfeiture of other property belonging to Paul.
The Second Circuit, however, disagreed and concluded that because Eleanor had been barred by statute from participating in Paul's criminal proceedings, due process demanded that she be given the opportunity to plead a plausible claim that (1) the funds were forfeitable only as substitute assets, and (2) the funds were under her ownership and control before the government's interest in them vested. While the panel acknowledged that Eleanor likely would face an uphill battle in her efforts to demonstrate her right to retain the funds, the panel's decision was motivated by the basic principle that an individual may "not [be] bound by an adjudication of [an] issue . . . in a proceeding in which she was not permitted to participate."
Legal Framework of Criminal Forfeiture
In a criminal forfeiture proceeding, governed by 21 U.S.C. § 853, a court first determines the government's interest in the funds sought to be forfeited as compared to the defendant's interest. Where the funds are identified as proceeds of the defendant's fraud, the government's interest in those proceeds vests as soon as the funds are generated—a concept known as "relation back," see § 853(c). Under these circumstances, the government's interest in the proceeds is superior to that of any subsequent gratuitous recipient of those funds and the funds will be forfeited.
Where, however, fraudulent proceeds have been "commingled with other [lawfully earned] property which cannot be divided without difficulty," § 853(p)(1)(E), a court must instead order the forfeiture of substitute property belonging to the defendant, up to the value of the missing proceeds. The commingled funds are treated not as offense proceeds, but rather as substitute assets and, under these circumstances, the government's interest in the assets does not necessarily vest at the time of the underlying offense because § 853(c)'s relation-back provision is not applicable to substitute assets.[2] Thus, in the case of substitute assets, it is possible that a third-party gratuitous transferee's interest in the commingled funds may be superior to that of the government.
However, there is no statutory guidance for addressing a situation in which "a third-party petitioner's interest, which may have been inferior to the defendant's . . . at the moment of the offense conduct, could nevertheless be superior to the government's later-attaching interest." This is the precise scenario presented in Daugerdas.
Factual Background and Prior Proceedings
For more than a decade, former tax attorney Paul Daugerdas designed fraudulent tax shelters for a range of clients, generating more than $164 million in criminal proceeds. These fraudulent proceeds were initially collected by Paul's law firm before they were disbursed to Paul. Over the course of several years, Paul transferred ownership of his personal accounts containing his income from the law firm to his wife Eleanor, who was not implicated in Paul's underlying crimes. Paul was indicted in 2009 and convicted in 2013 for his role in the conspiracy to commit tax fraud.
During his criminal proceedings, Paul twice raised the argument that the fraudulent funds were combined with other funds legitimately earned by Paul's law firm before they were distributed to him—that is, that the fraudulent proceeds were "irrevocably commingled" with untainted funds. The district court rejected this argument and found that the funds were fully forfeitable as criminal proceeds; the Second Circuit affirmed. See 837 F.3d 212, 218 (2d Cir. 2016). Interestingly, Paul never argued that the funds could not be forfeited because they no longer belonged to him.
Because § 853(k)(1) barred Eleanor from directly intervening in her husband's criminal proceedings, in 2014 Eleanor separately filed a petition pursuant to § 853(n) to determine her claim to the funds that Paul had gradually transferred over to her. The crux of her argument was that the government had failed to demonstrate—by an analysis of deposits into and disbursements out of Paul's law firm accounts—that commingling had not occurred prior to the payment of the funds from the law firm to Paul. As a result of the commingling, Eleanor contended, the contested funds were forfeitable only as substitute assets. And, because the government may recover substitute property only from the defendant's assets, the government could not recover these funds because Paul's interest in them was extinguished (and Eleanor's interest vested) before the government's interest vested. The district court granted the government's subsequent motion to dismiss Eleanor's petition, holding that Eleanor lacked statutory standing and failed to state a claim. The court held that the previous rulings in Paul's criminal proceedings established that the funds were forfeitable as proceeds and, as such, the government's interest in the funds vested as soon as they were generated, thereby rendering the government's interest superior to Eleanor's. Eleanor was not permitted to relitigate the issue.
The Panel's Opinion
The Second Circuit panel vacated the order dismissing Eleanor's petition filed pursuant to § 853(n), remanding so to provide Eleanor an opportunity to file an amended petition, if she could assert facts that would go beyond those in her current petition.
The panel identified a simple defect in Eleanor's petition, explaining that the government's motion to dismiss a § 853(n) petition must be evaluated according to the same standard as a motion to dismiss a civil complaint pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6). In other words, a court must accept as true all factual allegations contained in the petition. Eleanor's petition, however, was devoid of any plausible factual allegations; rather than pleading facts suggesting that the fraudulent funds had been commingled with legitimate funds, she alleged only that the government did not establish that the funds had not been commingled. While the distinction is a subtle one, Eleanor's contentions amount to a legal argument, which a court is not obligated to accept as correct at the motion-to-dismiss stage. At oral argument, Eleanor's counsel argued that she should be permitted to cure this defect in her petition by pleading additional facts relating to the alleged commingling. The panel agreed, concluding that if such facts exist, denying Eleanor the opportunity to present them "would raise significant due process concerns."
Statutory Standing
The panel did go on to agree with the district court that, even if Eleanor had plausibly alleged that the funds had been commingled, § 853 did not give her standing to assert her claims. Eleanor filed her petition pursuant to § 853(n), which provides the "exclusive means by which a third party may lay claim to forfeited assets." DSI Assocs. LLC v. United States, 496 F.3d 175, 183 (2d Cir. 2007). But § 853(n) limits Eleanor's ability to bring a petition, regardless of whether the funds are considered proceeds or substitute assets: § 853(n)(6)(A) requires that a third party demonstrate that her interest in forfeited property "was superior to any right, title, or interest of the defendant at the time of the commission of the acts which gave rise to the forfeiture of the property." Although in the case of substitute assets some courts have interpreted "the acts which gave rise to the forfeiture" to refer to actions other than the underlying criminal conduct,[3] the panel invoked several canons of statutory interpretation in support of its conclusion that, regardless of whether the funds in question are deemed criminal proceeds or substitute property, § 853(n)(6)(A) provides relief only where the third party's interest vests before the underlying crimes were committed. Moreover, a third party's interest in the funds vis-à-vis the defendant's interest is the same in both scenarios; it is only the third party's interest vis-à-vis the government's that may change and § 853(n)(6)(A) makes no reference to the government. Thus, the panel saw no basis for treating the two scenarios differently under § 853(n)(6)(A). Because Eleanor concededly took ownership of the contested funds after the commission of Paul's crimes, § 853(n) does not authorize her to present her claim, regardless of how the funds are characterized.
Procedural Due Process
The panel did not end its analysis there, however, due to lingering "constitutional concerns" that would arise were Eleanor entirely denied the right to assert her claim to the contested funds. The panel criticized the district court's determination that Eleanor could not relitigate whether the funds had been irrevocably commingled because Paul had previously made—and lost—that argument during his criminal proceedings. The panel explained: "The Due Process Clause does not permit us to hold that a third party is precluded from asserting, in her own right, her entitlement to property she claims is hers, on the ground that she is bound by a determination that the property belonged to someone else, when that determination was made in a separate proceeding in which she was not permitted to participate."
The panel concluded that if Eleanor can plead a plausible claim that (1) the funds are properly characterized as substitute assets, rather than offense proceeds, and (2) her ownership interest in the funds vested before the government's interest did, the Due Process Clause entitles her to make that claim, regardless of the limitations set forth in § 853(n).
This is a ruling that will benefit other third-party forfeiture claimants who previously might have been denied the right to litigate an issue that was determined against them at a sentencing proceeding in which they could not participate. It is unfair—and now unconstitutional—for the forfeiture rules to prevent a claimant from having an opportunity to litigate her entitlement to the property to be forfeited. In some cases, these assets have considerable value, and the Circuit has been careful to hold the government to an appropriately demanding standard. In addition, as the government increases its emphasis on asset forfeiture, it is understandable that previously unresolved issues will now be decided. We have blogged about several of those decisions, most recently in our post discussing Federal Insurance Company v. United States, Nos. 16-2967-op and 16-3402-cr, which addressed whether a corporation might obtain a constructive trust in the forfeited property generated by its malfeasant employee, and in our discussion of United States v. Ohle, No. 16-601-cr, in which the Circuit discussed the civil nature of § 853(n) proceedings and the time to appeal a district court's order on such a petition.
What obstacles will Eleanor Daugerdas face on remand, according to the Circuit? First, Eleanor must prove the contested assets were commingled with untainted funds before they were disbursed to Paul by his law firm. If Paul—who presumably had more information regarding the financial practices of his employer than Eleanor does—could not convince the district court that the funds had been commingled, it may be difficult for Eleanor to succeed in proving this fact. However, the Court explained that Paul had less incentive than Eleanor to prove that the funds belonged to a third party and not the government—after all, Paul would not end up with the money in either scenario. In fact, a defendant like Paul "might actually get a windfall if the money he owes is paid off with someone else's property." It is possible that Eleanor, with this greater incentive, will be able to make her case persuasively to the district court. The panel also raised a concern that even if the funds had been commingled, it is possible that the government will argue that Paul's partnership compensation nevertheless was wholly derived from fraudulent legal work and therefore should still be viewed as criminal proceeds.
The panel also left open an important question for remand: when did the government's interest in the assets vest? This issue has led to disagreement among courts within the Circuit and, since it appears that Paul transferred at least some of the contested funds to Eleanor after he was indicted, the district court might not rule that Eleanor holds a superior claim to the entire pool of funds. But these are factual questions yet to be determined, and even if Eleanor is not wholly successful in her litigation, the panel recognized that procedural due process is a bedrock constitutional principle and that Eleanor has a right to be heard on these issues. On remand, Eleanor must be given the opportunity to defend her interests and the property she claims is hers.

[1] As did the Court, we refer to Paul and Eleanor Daugerdas by their first names, for the sake of clarity.
[2] Precisely when the government's interest in substitute property vests is an open question in the Second Circuit and one which the Daugerdas panel declined to reach. Compare, e.g., United States v. Peterson, 820 F. Supp. 2d 576, 585 (S.D.N.Y. 2011) (the government interest vests upon the return of a grand jury indictment noticing forfeiture), with United States v. Kramer, 2006 WL 3545026, at *6-8 (E.D.N.Y. Dec. 8, 2006) (the government interest does not vest before conviction). On remand, the district court will need to grapple with this question before Eleanor can prevail on her claims as at least some of Paul's transfers to Eleanor occurred following his indictment.
[3] See, e.g., United States v. Erpenbeck, 682 F.3d 472, 478 (6th Cir. 2012) (holding that a third party asserted a plausible claim to substitute property where its interest attached after the underlying crime was committed, but before the government "tried to collect" the property).

Q: How to show gridlines only on 0 on the yAxis in highcharts? I have a highcharts graph and everything is going on as the mockup below. But there are a few things I am stuck on. Is there a way to remove all the gridlines from the yAxis except for the one in 0 like the one shown in the picture below with highcharts? Or do we have to use our own javascript to accomplish that? Also, can we show the grey colored areas like that one between the yAxis label and the graph and the one in the right side of the graph (end of the graph) ?

Thanks For any suggestions.

A: You can set gridLineWidth as 0. http://api.highcharts.com/highcharts#xAxis.gridLineWidth
Example: http://jsfiddle.net/ssQVJ/
yAxis: {
        gridLineColor: '#197F07',
        gridLineWidth: 0,
        lineWidth:1,
         plotLines: [{
            color: '#FF0000',
            width: 1,
            value: 0
        }]
    },


Haas concluded with, "In summation, it is fair to say that Tom Simpson has taken a leadership role and given free of his time at every major juncture in NAID history and there is no one more deserving of this recognition." As previously announced in the association's e-newsletter the NAIDdirect, the NAID membership overwhelmingly ratified proposed new bylaws that will allow a merger with PRISM International. The PRISM International members will now go through that same process. Should they ratify the decision of their board, a new organization will emerge in the coming months. There were many people on both sides of the table who put a lot of work into bringing this proposed merger about. However, Haas is certain it would not be at all possible "if not for the tireless inspiration of one man." Haas then presented a Special Recognition Award to R.
Stephen Richards, CSDS in acknowledgment of his critical role in bringing the two associations together.
NAID is proud to honor each of these individuals for their contributions to the industry and association.
Congratulations New CSDS Accredited Professionals The Certified Secure Destruction Specialist® Accreditation (CSDS®) Program promotes and acknowledges an individual's competency in a range of subject areas related to the secure destruction of information and the secure destruction of other items. Unlike the NAID AAA Certification Program, which verifies the ongoing compliance of an organization, CSDS credentials recognize the individual as an expert professional in our field.
some would have called it quits, Jim was just getting started.

We are the leading clean water non-profit. Since 1981, we have equipped people with clean water and decent toilets empowering them to unlock their potential.
WaterAid started in 1981 because no non-profit like us existed. We are determined to make clean water, reliable toilets and good hygiene normal for everyone, everywhere within a generation. Only by tackling these 3 essentials, in ways that last, can people change their lives for good.
Diarrhea caused by dirty water and poor toilets kills almost 800 children a day. A lack of clean water, decent toilets and good hygiene keeps kids out of school, adults out of work and traps people in poverty.
The work doesn't end when the water project is complete. We have a vast network of community leaders, engineers and WaterAid staff who monitor our projects. Since 2012, we have worked with MWater, a data management platform, to monitor the functionality of our water points, to ensure as many of them as possible continue to serve the community.
See how your support enables progress around the world.
We've crunched the numbers. It works.
1 in 9 people don't have clean water. We work together with communities to find the best and most lasting solutions to unlock their potential and break free from poverty.
1 in 3 people don't have a reliable toilet of their own. We're working with communities to build a local workforce that can install and maintain toilets.
Good hygiene promotion is one of the most effective ways of improving global health. That's why we support hygiene education across all of our projects.

| PCI Point-To-Point Encryption Guidelines Raise New Questions
PCI Point-To-Point Encryption Guidelines Raise New Questions
The PCI Security Standards Council today is expected to issue guidelines on use of point-to-point encryption in protecting sensitive payment card data,
The PCI Security Standards Council today is expected to issue guidelines on use of point-to-point encryption in protecting sensitive payment card data, but the narrow approach — which is focused on hardware — is raising questions.
Merchants and payment-card processors have suffered from the lack of industry standardized end-to-end encryption from the point where a merchant captures customer card data in a point-of-sale (POS) device, transmitting it over networks, including the Internet, to card-processing and bank networks. Hackers have taken advantage of this weakness, as the notorious criminal Albert Gonzalez (now convicted and in jail) did two years ago in his attack against Heartland Payment Systems and many merchants, including TJX Companies and Hannaford.
"There were no standards," says Bob Russo, the council's general manager, about point-to-point encryption, saying the new guidelines, which are entirely voluntary and optional, are the council's first step in influencing product development in this area.
The council has drawn from work done at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and supports use of the AES standard as well as some RSA technologies, he noted.
The council's approach doesn't define complete end-to-end encryption of card data; basically, it's hardware-based encryption of POS data to the edge of the acquiring bank's network, says Jeremy King, the council's European director.
The council by year end intends to release more technical requirements to vendors about building this type of point-to-point encryption, and under a certification program, the council anticipates certifying encryption devices early next year. The guidance also covers encryption key-management and practices that should be adhere to in its use, such as strong authentication and monitoring.
While use of any PCI-certified equipment is entirely voluntarily, the advantage is expected to vastly simplify a PCI audit. "The big benefit here is for the merchant," said Jeremy King, the council's European director,
But the guidelines only pertain to hardware-based equipment. Plans for specifying a fully software-based approach — or a hybrid software/hardware approach — are in the future, as is guidance related to security for mobile payments.
When the council's first direct step to point-to-point encryption is needed, it raises a lot of questions, according to analysts.
For one thing, merchants and their processors such as RBS, Heartland, Fifth Third Processing Solutions and others, have gradually started to adopt network point-to-point encryption based on their own diverse methodologies, says Gartner analyst Avivah Litan. When Gartner asked 77 of larger retailers about encryption adoption for payment processing, over one-fifth of them said they had already put something in place.
Though it's not a comprehensive survey, the Gartner findings do suggest that a variety of encryption methods have come into substantial use already. The question for merchants, payment processors and banks will be whether to continue whatever method they've come up with or shift toward equipment that might eventually be approved in the council's certification process.
Heartland, for instance, after its data breach, embarked on an ambitious course to design and build its own encryption-based processing gear designed for use with its customer base.

Q: altering jQuery UI datepicker format I can't figure out how to change the date format from default mm/dd/yyyy to the European dd/mm/yyyy.
The manual states to use:
$.datepicker.formatDate('yy-mm-dd', new Date(2007, 1 - 1, 26));

So far I have:
$('#next_date').datepicker();

which shows the calendar fine, but I'm not sure where the first line of code goes. This for example disables the calendar, nothing shows up, no JavaScript errors reported
$('#next_date').datepicker.formatDate('yy-mm-dd', new Date(2007, 1 - 1, 26));

A: I use this and it works fine
$('#next_date').datepicker({
dateFormat: 'dd/mm/yy'});

A: edit: i think i gave you code not for the jquery-ui datepicker. anyway, try this:
$('#next_date').datepicker({ altFormat: 'yy-mm-dd' });

A: dateFormat is returned to the input that datepicker is called on. altFormat and altField are another input altogether (in most cases hidden or shared)
Here is some sample code:
[IN HTML]
    Display/Start Date

    <input type="text" class="dateStart" name="display_date" value="" />

    End Date

    <input type="text" class="dateEnd" name="display_date_end" value="" />

[IN JAVASCRIPT INCLUDE]
    // set the datePicker on the start and end fields

    $('input.dateStart').datepicker({dateFormat:"yy-mm-dd", changeYear: true});

    $('input.dateEnd').datepicker({

        dateFormat:"yy-mm-dd",

        changeYear: true,

        beforeShow: function(){

            var value = $(this).siblings('.dateStart').val();

            $(this).datepicker('option', 'minDate', value);

        }

    });

Home News NACHPN Advocates Paradigm Shift In Maternal Healthcare Delivery
NACHPN Advocates Paradigm Shift In Maternal Healthcare Delivery
By Newsdailynigeria
The National Association of community health Practitioners of Nigeria NACHPN) has advocated for a paradigm shift towards community focused approach to maternal healthcare delivery in the Country.
The Association while appreciating members for their invaluable contribution at the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic,commended government's effort at containing the disease,especially, now that the country has been certified Polio free.
Speaking at a 4-day National Workshop on ' Maternal Mortality Burden in Nigeria, the need for paradigm shift towards community focused approach to Maternal health care' on Tuesday in Kaduna,Practitioners called for concerted efforts by all stakeholders towards achieving the desired goal.
The workshop which attracted participants from across the country had Speakers and participants brainstorming on the need to improving and promoting infant and Maternal health in the country.
The Acting National Chairman of the Association, Alhaji Yakubu Abdullahi called for a sound legislative framework towards achieving the desired results in the nation's health care delivery as well as attaining the target of 2030 Sustainable Development Goals.
While calling the three tiers of government to take the issue of Community Health seriously pointing out that there was still existing gaps in the country's health care delivery.
Speaking further, the Acting National Chairman commended the the governments of Kaduna and Adamawa State for the recruitment of a reasonable number of health workers to improve health care in their respective States.
Chairman House Committee on Primary Health Care, Yusuf Tanko Sununu and his Senate counterpart, expressed worry that despite the manpower development in the sector, the situation of Maternal Mortality in Nigeria remained the same.
Also worrisome, they said, was the refusal by some practitioners to be posted to rural communities, thereby giving room for quacks, saying that unless the practitioners accepted to serve there, the health delivery would continue to suffer.
The Lawmakers appealed to the Practitioners to see themselves as the hub in the country's health care delivery system
Earlier, the host, Kaduna State Chairman of the Association, Comrade Ibrahim Lawal Suleiman gave kudos to the Kaduna State government for its transformation agenda in the health sector , especially , as being the first to adopt full implementation of bringing Primary Health Care under One roof initiative.
Upgrading and equiping at least, one primary health care centre in each of 255 Wards to ensure health care needs of the people at the grassroots should be applauded, he said.
"Indeed, you have brought hope to the hopeless and smiles to the community dwellers", Suleiman re-emphasized.
While acknowledging the improvement on human resources development, Suleiman however appealed to the State government to recruit more community health workers to bridge the existing gap to reduce Maternal Mortality rate in the State.
Highlight of the event include presentation of awards to deserving members,who have contributed in no small measure to the development of health care delivery in Nigeria,among which is the Deputy Governor of Kaduna State, Hajia Hadiza Balarabe Sabuwa among others
