It's a knockout! Ricky Hatton is in fighting form on the Turkish coast
By Fred Redwood for MailOnline

Investment: Ricky Hatton has bought a villa off-plan at The Flamingo Golf Resort, near Bodrum in Turkey
He might be retired from boxing, but Ricky The Hitman Hatton could still knock you over with sheer enthusiasm for his latest property venture.
'I bought a villa off-plan at The Flamingo Golf Resort, near Bodrum in Turkey two years ago, and now I want to build a training camp there as well,' said the 31-year-old former champion last week.
'I'm building a stable of about 25 fighters and the place will be ideal for them. It's hilly, which will be great for their road work, the heat will help them acclimatise for fights abroad, and the golf makes it an ideal place to chill after a fight.'
If this all reads like the familiar story of the retired fighter rushing to spend his hard-won fortune then think again — Hatton is no fool with his money.
Managed by his father, Ray, he has his own leisurewear range and is now moving into the management and promotion side of boxing — hence his plans for the training camp in Bodrum.
He has been typically canny with his property dealings. The four-bedroom, two-bathroom villa in Bodrum comes with its own swimming pool and cost just £159,000.
Up until a year ago Hatton lived in a modest semi-detached house in Hyde, Manchester, where he was brought up. It was only when fans took to gawking through his windows that he decided on something rather more private.
So he bought a far larger, £750,000 home a few streets away in Gee Cross, put in a swimming pool and games room and built a high surrounding wall.
Hatton now lets the semi in Hyde and lives in the new house with girlfriend, Jennifer Dooley. He also has a holiday villa in Tenerife. Considering that he is believed to be worth around £25 million, it is hardly an extravagant portfolio.
Hatton, a fierce Manchester City supporter, has always remained true to his roots and it was family holidays that first brought him to Bodrum.
'I used to come here with my parents and my brother and, now that I could be described as retired from the ring, I want to spend time here with my girlfriend and my own little boy, Campbell,' he says. 'I just can't get over how much the place has changed. There are golf courses galore and Bodrum is absolutely beautiful.'
This part of the Bodrum peninsula where Hatton has chosen to invest is undergoing a £4.1 billion development and is typical of one of the booming tourist areas that are springing up along the coastline.
'Golf is the driving force behind it,' says David Vaughan, from Savills estate agents.
'You can get phenomenal value for money in terms of property and can also let your property ten months of the year quite easily.'
The Ankara government is behind this golfing boom. Areas have been identified for up to 100 new courses to be built by 2014 and the policy is already paying dividends.
Growing economy: Prices may be low, but don't imagine Bodrum is a cheap and cheerful part of Turkey
A survey by business consultancy KPMG shows the number of rounds played in Turkey in 2009 was 17 per cent up on the previous year.
The Flamingo Golf Resort houses 1,400 apartments and villas. It is an ongoing project which should take several years to complete and Hatton's villa should be ready by next year. When finished, it will have bars and restaurants, a neighbouring 40-unit shopping complex and three five-star hotels.
The plots come with 30 m pools and from them residents will be able to look out over the Aegean Sea inlet, the flamingo nature reserve and the first of four golf courses which is already completed to PGA standard. At present, plots start at £22,500 with apartments from £60,000.
Those prices might sound low, but don't imagine Bodrum is a cheap and cheerful part of Turkey. Rather, it is a favourite holiday spot for wealthy city types from Istanbul. In Yalikavak, its plushest suburb, the prices of some modern houses start at more than £1.5 million and mansions sell for £6 million and above.
Investing in Turkey appears to have been a shrewd move on Hatton's part. With its population of 73 million and growing, there is a significant shortage of housing and this should maintain demand and ensure prices continue to appreciate.
'I find it relaxing. And one thing is for sure — it's a damn sight less painful than fighting'
Turkey is also economically sound, having come out of the recession relatively unscathed, largely thanks to not being in the eurozone. It is the 15th-largest economy in the world and would be the sixth largest in the European Union if, as expected, it is granted full membership by 2020.
Yet the sight of acres upon acres of holiday villas in the making is bound to trigger memories of the investors in Spain who lost their money in similar schemes only a few years ago.
What can newcomers to the market in Turkey do to ensure this does not happen to them?
'Carry out proper checks on the bona-fide nature of sellers and agents. Consult UK lawyers who have professional indemnity and ensure that any off-plan schemes have the right guarantees,' advises Julian Walker, of Turkey specialist Spot Blue estate agents.
Not all overseas buyers in Turkey are golf fans. The Antalya region along Turkey's south coast is a favourite with visitors who come for the traditional Mediterranean attractions.
The Hill is a development of apartments only 500 metres from the beach in Alanya. Prices start at £97,000 for a one-bedroom apartment with a 65 sq m garden, up to £235,000 for a three-bed penthouse.
Alternatively, if you want a really top-end golf resort, there is the much-vaunted Belek Golf Club where, when finished in 2012, residents will be able to pull up at their villas by boat as the car-free complex will be linked by a four-mile canal. Four-bedroom villas are from £703,000.
Is golf much of an attraction to Ricky Hatton when he visits Bodrum? 'To be honest with you, I just hack around the course — I'm not very good,' he says.
'But I find it relaxing. And one thing is for sure — it's a damn sight less painful than fighting.'

If you know me at all, you know that I am madly, passionately, and inexplicably in love with food. Potlucks are my idea of a perfect evening. Bacon makes me beam. Chocolate makes me sing and dance around my kitchen like a fool.
Nothing makes me happier than when I get quality time with my kitchen to make scrumptious creations with and for the beautiful people in my life.
This year, I'm looking to share that love with you, with fun, simple and tasty ideas to spruce up that student diet.
So in true Cadre fashion, let me start you off with a drink.
Recently, I've discovered the delights of infused liquors. This is a fantastic way to use some of the last batches of summer strawberries while you sweeten up your favourite hard liquor for a night at The Wave. It may sound fancy and complicated, but bare with me here. It's really as simple as slicing up some strawberries, pouring some liquor over them and screwing on a lid – and it tastes amazing.
Rinse and chop up strawberries into bite sizes pieces. Fill a mason jar to the top with a few inches left at the top.
Pour bourbon over the strawberries, screw on the top tightly and give it a shake. Keep this bottle of goodness stored in a dark space for anywhere from 3 to 7 days giving it a light shake each day on your way out the door.
When you've left it long enough, strain the mixture using a coffee filter or strainer to catch the strawberries and debris and discard strawberries.
Tada! She's ready to be poured.
Keep it in the fridge and enjoy. This concoction can be used to sweeten up any hard liquor, not just my choice of bourbon. Drink it on the rocks or make a yummy cocktail by adding some mint in a glass, drizzled with some honey, and mix with a spoon until the glass starts to sweat.


Well, this was a weird week, I must say. Starting 10 hours days and having to clock in by 5:30a was really different, as I like to do a lot of things before work (empty dishwasher, wipe bathroom counters, etc.) but I haven't found a rhythm for this yet, and it makes me feel rushed every day. I'm also more tired when I clock out than I'm used to, but I imagine I'll get used to it. It was REALLY nice to have Friday off, as well as the whole weekend.. a little strange (I felt like I was playing hooky from school) but I really got a lot accomplished.
You all make it so hard to pick!!
Thank you so much for featuring my post about how I built our kitchen cabinets and for the great party every week!
Thank you for hosting. I hope the schedule becomes easier for you!


This is a shorter write-up by members of Plan C Manchester about Wednesday 11th December's #copsoffcampus activities. A longer account, written also by members of Plan C Manchester but specifically for the Beyond Europe platform, can be read here.
In Manchester, the response to recent events in and around the University of London was heartening. We gathered outside University Place – the huge branded grey cylinder on Oxford Road. There were around 100 of us, from Defend Education, Anticapitalist Students, the Anticapitalist Initiative, and Plan C, as well as lots of unaligned people too. A few people from the anti-fracking camp in Salford were there as well, who had their own ample reasons to attend a demo against police brutality. Someone had brought a box of chalk, and by the time the demonstration moved off the ground where we had been standing was covered in writing – solidarity with #3cosas, solidarity with arrested students], free education, sick pay, holiday pay, pensions, against the criminalisation of protest and the brutalisation of protestors, against austerity, against fees and cuts. There was a Plan C banner with ACAB written in purple, and another demanding justice for all. We marched around the library and then took the road, occupying the whole of the left-hand lane up to All Saints Park, chanting about kettles, debt, cops, austerity and education. At All Saints Park we arranged ourselves over the steps and there were a few short cheerful speeches from six or seven groups, with the mic being passed around and lots of cheering and clapping. We were pleased with the turnout, in high spirits and planning more action in the new year.
We returned to University Place – taking the road again as we did so – at which point, the Manchester Defend Education network felt sufficiently buoyed by the ambience that it decided to re-implement previously shelved plans for a flash sit-in of the University of Manchester's social responsibility office on the other side of Oxford Road, whose watchword is 'making a difference'. Twenty people, mainly students of the University, entered and remained overnight in the building, dropping a banner ("Act responsibly: put students and staff before profit") and attracting significant support for 'Occupy Manchester University'. Others, primarily non-students and organised groups, either converged in the Friends Meeting House for an inter-group discussion on the state of struggle around 'capitalism and education', or helped materially support the sit-in by, winching up food and blankets using string and a pulley system at the back of the building, under security guards' noses.
The joint victories of #3Cosas, the Goldsmith Solidarity Network, and student-worker mobilisations at the University of London generally, have sent tremors across the country. One of the exciting things about this new wave is its increasing political astuteness, organising beyond just student interests; or rather, recognising that student interests are the same as the interests of university workers. Students in Manchester who proposed 'demands', from within the sit-in they vacated almost immediately, did not (unfortunately) articulate an anti-police politics of a piece with the demo that had participated in; but they did, on the other hand, include a firm sense of the inter-connectedness of staff and student struggle. There is also no question about the legitimacy of disruptive protest and building occupations.
So, the energy and cheer of the Manchester demo and occupation were cause for excitement about the possibilities for organising in higher education next year. Students all over the country are mobilising, and being joined in doing so by support staff and academic staff. There is a general sense that we need to intensify, build and grow our activities, and invent new tactics as well. Happy new year.
Remember, You Are Sleeping for the Boss!


I have recently changed locations and experiencing a different world of work, business and commerce.
It is interesting to know that what works in some places do not work in others. For instance, I have been trained to market solutions to customer's needs. If I can find out what your needs are, then it is easier for me to tailor my business service to meet those needs so that we can both be happy.
But in my new location, I found out that needs are no reason to purchase. People know their needs but there seems to be a higher factor that influences purchase. One of those factors is profit margin. So now I am learning not to pitch on needs, but on profit to be made.
However there are some things that do not change when it comes to business and commerce, and that is having a competitive advantage.
This takes me back to a story a long time ago. In bible times a donkey represents the hallmark of business and commerce. A donkey typifies a modern day crux for trade. If you have a donkey, you are the link that keeps businesses alive, that keeps consumers happy, that ensures delivery of goods and services. A donkey talks of business.
Jesus was taking over a small business start-up, He was taking the vehicle for business of another man. This single act of release from the business owner turned his fortune around.
It doesn't matter what the donkey has been transporting before (Jesus mentioned it had not been ridden by anyone before), but this day the donkey transported something that brought the business to the lime light. There is a breakthrough product/service that brings about a turnaround in a business.
The following 5 things are seen in the "Business, Donkey Commerce" story.
On the day that Jesus took the donkey, the owner might have enough jobs lined up. Although the inconvenience was not stated, but having no monetary return will indicate a "no job", but not for the owner. He sacrificed the donkey for the work of the master. In fact, some will say how a business venture starts will determine its life, i.e. A young donkey's first assignment must bring money, unless it will bring poverty, but not when you have a breakthrough product in your portfolio. The first job is not ordinary, and the owner sacrificed.
Nothing could have prepared the business owner for what awaits his business. His young donkey was clothed, and people from near and far paid tribute to this donkey. A product, a discovery, a service, A Jesus that was transported brought about instant fame. There is fame awaiting your business if you will manufacture the right product, render the right service, and make a new discovery.
Question, Who would not want to ride on the donkey that Jesus rode on. Who wouldn't want to transport goods using the donkey that transported Jesus? This is the competitive advantage. I can imagine a billboard that reads… "Celebrity Donkey for Hire" Just an idea is all you need.
Peace and satisfaction in business is a sought after state. There is a general view that business and satisfaction don't go together. There are many pressures to succeed in any business/work/career etc but breakthrough is just round the corner when you have the right product/service in your portfolio.
Carrying Jesus was the breakthrough service that the donkey and its owner rendered and it brought about a successful venture.
There is a breakthrough product for your business – Find it.
Many business owners are actually using trial and error to find their breakthrough product/service, but that takes time and resources. Insight is the required virtue to have competitive advantage.
"The labour of fools wearies every one of them; for he doesn't know how to go to the city.".
Jesus knows the way to the city, He only needed a donkey. Jesus is calling for another donkey, will your business respond?

The goal in diagnosing developmental learning challenges is to identify one or more types of treatment that, when applied across time, lead to an improved outcome for the student. With this in mind, it was encouraging to read about a study published recently that documents a small (but compelling) percentage of students who were diagnosed with ASD before 5 years old and are now reported to have evolved to a point in their social learning and related social skills that they are described as having "recovered" from autism (Fein et al., 2013). Researchers of the study refer to this as an "optimal outcome" (OO).
+ Confirmation that the written report adequately described symptoms of autism beyond just having the diagnosis.
+ Were fully included in regular education classrooms with no one-on-one assistance and no special education services to address autism deficits (e.g., no social skills training). However, participants could be receiving limited special education services or psychological support to address impairments not specific to ASD, such as attention or academic difficulties.
Our experience matches data presented in this study. Over the years we have seen a number of students evolve from being diagnosed with autism and demonstrating behaviors that were indicative of autism when in preschool to having much more subtle social learning challenges. As disarming as the initial diagnosis is for parents, for some if not many of these students' families, it was also challenging when the autism diagnosis was removed. Parents discovered that the child was no longer eligible for services due to the student's symptoms being too "mild" or "within normal limits" on a standardized test.
As clinicians, we noted this disparity in needs vs. services and over time, Social Thinking has developed a stronger focus on this group no longer considered to have autism. We refer to them as "Strong Emerging Social Communicators" or, those who have even more subtle social challenges as "Nuance Challenged Social Communicators." These and other social communication profiles are outlined in more detail in our Social Thinking-Social Communication Profile™ (Winner, Crooke and Madrigal, 2012), a tool that represents the wide spectrum of abilities that exist in children and adults. Find a free article on the ST-SCP posted on our website.
What does it mean to us when a person is considered to be "recovered" or has an "optimal outcome"?
Often this means the student has more nuanced social learning challenges. He or she probably has greater access to join in all the activities of the typically developing peer group than would a more socially unaware person. However, what is important to note is that these individuals may not be as easily accepted by their peers as adult caregivers (parents and professionals) would like to think. It also means there are less standardized instruments available to identify their more nuanced social learning needs, and even though real challenges may still exist, they are seldom addressed with any level of concrete teaching.
From our experience, those with more obvious social learning challenges are more naturally mentored by their TD peers. Those who have more nuanced or subtle social challenges are the first to be alienated and bullied. They also are more socially self-aware and possess a stronger social attention span than their more socially limited peers with Challenged or Emerging Social Communication skills. As a result they can manifest pressing higher level of social anxiety and depression, which comingles with their social learning challenges.
Something our community is weak to recognize with regard to this wider spectrum of social functioning is how we have different social expectations (higher) for those who have more nuanced social challenges (those most likely not to be diagnosed as ASD) than we do for individuals with more obvious social challenges. Typically developing folks and many with higher level social learning challenges are keenly aware of the social abilities of their peers. They notice the person who is more or less out of step with the peer group, or who can't seem to navigate the social arena. This means that our students who no longer qualify as having autism/ASD – but who may still have very subtle but significant social issues - may not have an easier road to travel once they are "recovered." When it comes to tackling the larger social arena with their typically developing peers, they may still flounder.
If we widen our lens and look to the upcoming edition of the DSM-5, it is our guess that those who may be diagnosed in the future as Social Communication Disordered will also be a very nuanced group of socially challenged folks.
What does all this mean for treatment?
From our perspective it means those who have "recovered" from autism or are considered having an "optimal outcome" are likely to still require significant services to help them with their social learning, executive functioning, and mental health needs. Optimal outcome and recovery do not imply to us that there is no longer a need for treatment. Instead it implies the treatment needed is just far more sophisticated than the lessons we originally presented to help students when they were labeled with autism or ASD.
The nature of the treatment also has to shift from being behaviorally based to being based in cognitive behavioral therapy, meaning students shift from learning the social rules through behaviorism to learning the social nuance through methods such as those Social Thinking has to offer.

Mobile carriers in the country, which has one of the world's highest smartphone penetration rates, rolled out the latest wireless technology this week on Samsung's new 5G-enabled handset Galaxy S10.
South Korea's three mobile carriers - SK Telecom, KT and LG Uplus - held launch events across Seoul for the Galaxy S10 5G, whose base version costs 1.39mil won (RM4,991).
That said, Motorola's hardware costs $480 right now, and while Samsung has yet to announce US pricing for the Galaxy S10 5G, it's safe to presume that Samsung shoppers will be paying more than twice that. "We got a tipoff that Verizon will start its 5G service on Thursday", a government official said. The United States will be next when Verizon launches its 5G network on April 11.
Park Jung-ho, CEO of SK Telecom, attends a launching ceremony for its 5G service, in Seoul, South Korea, April 3, 2019. The carriers plan to expand their coverage to 85 cities across the country by the end of the year.
To take full advantage of the increased power of 5G, the Galaxy S10 5G includes new advanced features that expand the viewing experience with the largest display available on a S Series device, create stunning photos and videos with intelligence and offer the powerful performance needed to keep pace. Its speed will be 20 times faster than the 4G and it will allow customers to download the whole movie in less than a second.
DJ Koh, CEO of IT & Mobile Communications Division, Samsung Electronics said the incredible speed and connectivity of 5G is bringing the world closer in line with Samsung's vision of connected living. The South Korean handset and electronics maker warned investors that its profit in the first quarter will be in the neighborhood of 6.1-6.3 trillion Korean won (~$5.36-$5.4 billion in U.S. currency), which in a vacuum is pretty impressive. They switched on the 5G network for a select group of customers Wednesday, making South Korea the world's first nation to roll out the commercial 5G service.

Congolese authorities reported on August 16 two Ebola cases in South Kivu, confirming that the virus had spread to a third province in the Democratic Republic of Congo. In this country at least 1,905 people have died from the disease in the last year.
"Mother and her son were confirmed with Ebola in Jienga, South Kivu. These are the first two cases in this province. As soon as the alert was lifted, the response teams were ready to provide treatment, start looking for contacts and start vaccination," confirmed the World Health Organization (WHO).

The incubation period, ie the interval between infection and onset of symptoms, is between 2 and 21 days.
Symptoms vary, but in the onset of the disease (in the "dry phase"), a sudden onset of fever, severe weakness, and muscle, head and throat pain. As the disease progresses, it is common for people to suffer from vomiting and diarrhea (the "wet phase"), rashes, impairment of renal and hepatic function and, in some cases, internal and external bleeding.
The province of South Kivu is located on the border with Rwanda, Burundi and Tanzania.
Last year, according to the WHO, more than 2,600 confirmed cases were reported, including more than 1,800 deaths in various regions of the Ituri and North Kivu provinces, in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Children account for almost one in three cases. More than 770 people have survived to date.
On July 17, WHO declared the outbreak of Ebola an international public health crisis.

To coin a Forrester term, we really are living in an 'Age of the Customer' and this is not set to change. We predict a continued focus here that will see more in-depth preference mining in order to deliver ever-more personalised experiences and a rise of customer experience/alignment maps as an increasingly common UX/user research deliverable to help identify CX and/or UX opportunities, priorities and strategy.
We expect to see continued adoption of material design as a (marginally) richer alternative to the somewhat homogenous feel of flat design. We will also see a greater focus on UX differentiators, turning online experiences from 'good' to 'great' with increased attention on micro-interactions, 'delighters' and re-humanising the customer experience.
With more mobile use, and more hybrid apps, omni-channel engagement can only grown in importance. But not just for customers - employees too. Consistency of message across channels (and platforms) will be crucial.
Expect to see an increased use of wearables that are cross-functional eg. fitness-based technologies expanding to mainstream medical/healthcare and improving the quality of care at minimal cost. Of course there are 'physical meets digital' design considerations here too.
There will be a continuing (even increased) focus on automation from business process automation through to machine learning. There will be much discussion in 2016 and beyond as to how automated technologies can further reduce costs in businesses while still improving the speed of customer communications and, therefore, customer experience.
An increased focus on real time information will drive dynamic pricing models across subscription-based businesses.
You cannot help but feel that security is only going to have an increased profile moving forward. With more and more personal data being stored to drive some of the activities outlined above, there will be more and more concern about data security and what is stored where, by whom and how. This will lead to heightened concerns about the security of systems architectures. To start with, high data customers will pay for added security layers that seek to be invisible to customers. However, there is an inevitability that this will become another commoditised layer as levels of sophistication increase.
And of course fintech (and 'everything else tech'), we suspect we'll be discussing this a lot in 2016 too.

As you're getting your sprinkler or irrigation system ready for spring, there are some key issues you can look for to make sure it will be working its best.
We're talking leaks, clogs, weak water pressure—all the problems that typically come after the cold and dry winter. These common issues can reduce your system's effectiveness, spike your water bill and even damage your home's exterior.
That's why sprinkler maintenance is so important, especially at this time of year. The key is to catch potential problems before the growing season takes off over the summer.
Here are major issues to look for, which the Sun Power Lawn Care sprinkler maintenance team spotted at some local Gainesville job sites.
Filters in sprinkler heads get clogged with time and need to be replaced. If a sprinkler head looks like it has low pressure compared to other heads, the filter is likely blocked.
Before we adjusted this head, it was spraying the electrical unit next to it. This could lead to shorts in the circuit and potentially a fire.
A break like this reduces the pressure within the zone, making all sprinkler heads on that zone less effective because of the reduction in pressure.
Water discoloration from a sprinkler regularly watering the side of a client's house. We adjusted it so as not to hit the house anymore.
This is one of four heads that were leaking just as bad as one another. The system hadn't been run for three years. It could have been because everything was in bad condition, or everything was in bad condition because it hadn't been run.
PVC pipe break at a local school. It's in the area where cars are parked frequently, which leads to breaks.
Here's a happy "after" picture! Pop-up misting sprinkler heads watering a client's yard after an irrigation check.

Poverty is an affliction that affects many areas across the globe. It's a plight that doesn't discriminate and both adults and children alike suffer as a result. In Indonesia, many school children in the Riau province face long hot days with little or no access to food and water, poor facilities and many other discomforts. Fortunately, the area has fallen under the care of legendary visionary and businessman, Mr Sukanto Tanoto and his group of companies under the RGE Group name.
Earlier in 2016, Mr Sukanto Tanoto signed an agreement with The United Nations Development Program (UNDP). The agreement stipulated the time, money and attention the foundation would dedicate to anti-poverty sustainable development support in Indonesia.
The Tanoto Foundation, which carries out a great deal of Mr Sukanto Tanoto's philanthropic activities and events, pledged USD 220 000 to be used over 2 years to implement a program that really benefits the community. The UNDP officials were exceptionally grateful for the donation and spoke very highly of the Tanoto Foundation. In a statement they said; "The agreement reflects the Foundation's commitment to advancing human development and ending poverty in Indonesia".
This is just one of many community enhancement projects that Mr Sukanto Tanoto and his group of companies are involved in. Mr Tanoto is a man that strongly believes in giving back to the community and bettering the quality of life for those who are less fortunate. His did not have a privileged childhood and he has worked hard, applying all of his beliefs to his business dealings to ensure that his family and community can benefit.
Mr Sukanto Tanoto believes that a business is successful only if the community, country and climate have also benefited.
The Tanoto Foundation is currently involved in many educational, environmental and community programs designed to make Indonesia better, not only for himself and his family, but for all.

Laurel Skuba held a Christmas party just for her clients that I attended last night. She is my girls' usual dog show handler when I cannot show myself. The party was at a Chinese restaurant and the food kept coming and coming; and by the time all was said and done, we were all very stuffed.
At the party, I was very touched by everyone there. They had all contributed and thought up of the idea to have an original art work done of my Hyacinth Bucket made by Connie Krohn.
The hand-made one of a kind acrylic portrait based on an image taken from this website. The photo taken was of Hyacinth looking out the big floor to ceiling window at the Renaissance hotel near the Toronto airport.
We were attending the Havanese Fanciers of Canada national specialty with the Trillium Dog Fanciers. It was the last weekend I spent with Hyacinth before I handed her to Norm, a professional dog show hander, who was to show her in American dog shows so Hyacinth could earn some points towards her American championship title.
In the handmade portrait, the outside image of the parking lot was removed and replace with a suggested reflection of Hyacinth in the glass looking at the night stars. It is so beautiful and so touching. I couldn't stop myself from crying when I saw it. The portrait is so wonderful and I miss her so much; I am still crying as I compose this.
They all signed a card and include a gift certificate to Michaels so I can frame the portrait later; they explained that they ran out of time to frame it. Oh my goodness, the whole thing was so generous of them, so thoughtful, and loving of them – I thank each one of them sincerely - from the bottom of my heart.
what a lovely and very thoughtful gift. I absolutely love that painting! i am sure you will have a special place for it in your home as well as your heart. i have a few pieces of original art done by connie and i love them to pieces!! such talent!
Update: My husband as agreed to help me have get it framed. I didn't want to go to Michaels on my own. We both agreed that after Christmas season and boxing day hush has died down, we would go have have it framed.

Locke Lord QuickStudy: Lamps Plus: U.S. Supreme Court Further Limits Class Arbitration
Locke Lord Publications April 24, 2019
Click here for PDF
On April 24, 2019, the U.S. Supreme Court held that ambiguous arbitration provisions cannot be used to compel class arbitration. Lamps Plus v. Varela, No. 17-988, 2019 WL 1780275 (April 24, 2019). This 5-4 decision expands on the Court's prior class arbitration decision, Stolt-Nielsen SA v. AnimalFeeds International, 559 U.S. 662 (2010), where the Court held that silence on class arbitration was not enough to compel class arbitration. In Lamps Plus, the Court now holds that ambiguity is also not enough. The decision suggests that only agreements that clearly authorize class arbitration will support compelling a class arbitration over the objection of one of the parties. But the decision also leaves to lower courts to interpret when agreements are ambiguous and when agreements clearly authorize class arbitration, so litigation over the issue will continue.
Prior Supreme Court Case Law Left Open Questions Regarding Whether Class Arbitration Was Authorized.
Lamps Plus is the latest Supreme Court decision on class arbitration in the last several years. In Stolt-Nielsen, the parties stipulated in the lower court that their arbitration agreement was silent as to class arbitration. The Supreme Court, stating that "arbitration is a matter of consent, not coercion", held that an agreement to arbitrate does not entail an agreement to class arbitration. Stolt-Nielsen, 559 U.S. at 685 ("An implicit agreement to authorize class-action arbitration, however, is not a term that the arbitrator may infer solely from the fact of the parties' agreement to arbitrate."). The Court based its holding on its finding that class arbitration was fundamentally different than individual arbitration, so an agreement to class arbitration could not be inferred from mere silence on the issue. Id. ("class-action arbitration changes the nature of arbitration to such a degree that it cannot be presumed the parties consented to it by simply agreeing to submit their disputes to an arbitrator.").
Three years later, in Oxford Health Plans LLC v. Sutter, 569 U.S. 564 (2013), the Court unanimously permitted class arbitration to proceed, but its holding was very limited. In Oxford, the parties stipulated that the arbitrator, rather than a Court, should decide whether the agreement permitted class arbitration. The arbitrator ruled that the agreement did permit class arbitration, and while the Court affirmed, it did so under an extremely deferential standard of review. The Court in Oxford held that it could not overrule, no matter how flawed the arbitrator's contractual interpretation was, so long as the arbitrator was trying to interpret the contract. Oxford, 569 U.S. at 569 ("the sole question for us is whether the arbitrator (even arguably) interpreted the parties' contract, not whether he got its meaning right or wrong."). Thus, Oxford provided little guidance on when a court should conclude that an agreement authorizes class arbitration.
The Ninth Circuit Permitted Class Arbitration Under an Ambiguous Agreement
In Lamps Plus, the Ninth Circuit affirmed the trial court's decision to compel class arbitration, despite noting that the agreement was ambiguous as to class arbitration. On the one hand, the agreement broadly required arbitration "in lieu of any and all lawsuits or other civil legal proceedings relating to my employment." Lamps Plus v. Varela, 701 Fed. App'x. 670, 672 (9th Cir. 2017). On the other hand, the agreement used language suggesting that any arbitration would be individual to the employee and the employee's individual employment. Id. (agreement waived "any right I may have to file a lawsuit or other civil action or proceeding relating to my employment.") (emphasis added). The Court found the agreement ambiguous and thus interpreted the agreement against the drafter (the employer) to conclude the agreement authorized class arbitration. Id. at 673.
The Supreme Court Now Holds Ambiguity is Not Enough for Class Arbitration.
The Supreme Court reversed the 9th Circuit and held that an ambiguous agreement is not enough to compel class arbitration. After finding that appellate courts had jurisdiction over decisions compelling class arbitration, the majority deferred to the Ninth Circuit's determination that the contract was ambiguous on class arbitration. Lamps Plus, 2019 WL 1780275 at *4. Notably, Justice Thomas (who joined the five-justice majority) believed the agreement was silent as to class arbitration, while Justices Kagan, Breyer, and Ginsburg believed the agreement unambiguously permitted class arbitration. Id. at *8, *16–*17. But the majority reached no independent determination of whether the agreement was ambiguous; it simply deferred to the Ninth Circuit's conclusion that it was.
Once it found the agreement was ambiguous, the Court held that the Federal Arbitration Act "requires more than ambiguity" to compel class arbitration. Lamps Plus, 2019 WL 1780275 at *4. The Court repeated its conclusion from Stolt-Nielsen that "arbitration is a matter of consent, not coercion", and noted that class arbitration is fundamentally different from individual arbitration. Id. at *5 ("Class arbitration … sacrifices the principal advantage of arbitration—its informality—and makes the process slower, more costly, and more likely to generate procedural morass than final judgment."). Given those differences, the Court held that an ambiguous agreement could not support class arbitration. Id. at *8 ("Courts may not infer from an ambiguous agreement that parties have consented to arbitrate on a classwide basis.")
The Court also rejected the Ninth Circuit's reliance on the general rule of interpreting ambiguous contracts against the drafter, finding the rule was based on public policy considerations rather than attempting to discern the parties' intent. Id. at *6–*7.
The four dissenting Justices advanced several arguments. Justice Breyer denied the Court had jurisdiction at all. Justice Ginsburg, who focused more upon the consequences of the majority's holding, maintained that the underlying dispute in this case "cries out for collective treatment." Lamps Plus, 2019 WL 1780275 at *10. And Justice Kagan, in a portion of her dissent joined by all four dissenting justices, believed the majority should have accepted the state-law rule of interpreting an ambiguous contract against the drafter.
Lamps Plus Will Restrict Class Arbitration, But Further Litigation is Likely.
The Court continues to restrict class arbitration: Stolt-Nielsen held that silence was not enough to compel class arbitration, and Lamps Plus raises that bar by holding ambiguity is also not enough. But the majority's opinion gives lower courts room to reach a different outcome. Because the majority simply deferred to the Ninth Circuit's conclusion that the agreement was ambiguous as to class arbitration, a lower court that finds an agreement (even a similar agreement) unambiguously permits class arbitration can order class arbitration without violating Lamps Plus. Thus, further litigation is likely on the issue of how to interpret arbitration provisions.

Q: A small error in my mdx query     SCOPE([Trans Tasks FFMS Farah GVV].[Task Status].&[1].MEMBERS, [Trans Tasks FFMS Farah     GVV].[Task Sub Status].&[1].MEMBERS);
    THIS =[Measures].[Maximum Insertion DT];
    END SCOPE;

The above query generates an error ("the syntax for scope is incorrect")
What im trying to do: I want to display the max insertionid only for the pair of values of status=1 and substatus=1. In the cube all the status and substatus values show but i want the calculation to be only for those (1,1 as mentioned). Is that the right way to go about it?
Maximum Insertion ID, is a measure i created to return the max insertionid.

A: What is [Trans Tasks FFMS Farah GVV].[Task Status].&[1].MEMBERS assumed to mean? [Trans Tasks FFMS Farah GVV].[Task Status].&[1] is a member already. Thus,
SCOPE({([Trans Tasks FFMS Farah GVV].[Task Status].&[1],
        [Trans Tasks FFMS Farah GVV].[Task Sub Status].&[1])
     });
    THIS =[Measures].[Maximum Insertion DT];
END SCOPE;

should work.

A: For others to benefit: the scope keyword cannot be used in the expression for a calculated measure. Instead I used and Case statement (could have used IIF but i caused problems for me in some cases). The case statement would be like case when status and substatus =1 then do call the max measure.

+4.25 (+ 2.92 %)
+4.00 (+ 2.75 %) Prev Close: 141.25 52 Week Range 121.15
We have audited the standalone financial statements of The Indian Hotels Company Limited ("the Company"), which comprise the standalone balance sheet as at 31 March 2019, and the standalone statement of profit and loss (including other comprehensive income), standalone statement of changes in equity and standalone statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the standalone financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as "standalone financial statements").
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid standalone financial statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 ('the Act') in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at 31 March 2019, and profit and other comprehensive income, changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
BASIS OF OPINION
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under section 143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under those SAs are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the standalone financial statements under the provisions of the Act and the Rules thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
i. Valuation of Investments
The Company has investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates. These investments are accounted for at cost less any provision for impairment. If an impairment exist, the recoverable amounts of the above investment are estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss, if any. Determination of whether there exists any impairment in the value of those investments is subject to a significant level of judgement. There is therefore a risk that the value of investments may be misstated. Refer to Note 5(a) -"Investments" of the standalone financial statements.
Our audit procedures included, among others, considering the impairment risk associated with investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates. We examined key assumptions in management's valuation models used to determine recoverable amount considering external data, including assumptions of projected adjusted EBITDA, growth rate, room occupancy, room rate, projected capital expenditure, long term growth rates, discount rates and assessed the forecasts against the historical performance. We validated the appropriateness of the related disclosures in Note 5(v) of the financial statements.
ii. Contingent liabilities
The Company has significant tax and other litigations against it. There is a high level of judgement required in estimating the level of provisioning required and appropriateness of disclosure of those litigations as contingent liabilities.
Refer to Note 1 - "Basis of preparation", Note 17(b) -"Provisions" and Note 28 - "Contingent liabilities and Contingent assets" and Note 36 of the standalone financial statements.
For legal, regulatory and tax matters our procedures included examining external legal opinions obtained by management; meeting with regional and local management and examining relevant Group correspondence; discussing litigations with the Company's legal counsel and tax head; assessing management's conclusions through understanding precedents set in similar cases; and circularization, where appropriate, of confirmations to third party legal representatives regarding certain material cases.
We also involved our internal tax specialists to gain an understanding and to determine the level of exposure for direct and indirect tax litigations of the Company.
In light of the above, we examined the level of provisions recorded and assessed the adequacy of disclosures in Standalone financial statements.
The Company's management and Board of Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Company's annual report, but does not include the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the standalone financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the standalone financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
MANAGEMENT'S RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE STANDALONE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Company's management and Board of Directors are responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the preparation of these standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the state of affairs, profit and other comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) prescribed under section 133 of the Act. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the standalone financial statements, management and Board of Directors are responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. Refer Note - 43.
Board of Directors is also responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. under Section 143(3) (i) of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Company has adequate internal financial controls with reference to the financial statements in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the standalone financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern; and
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the standalone financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the standalone financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the standalone financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

REPORT ON THE INTERNAL FINANCIAL CONTROLS WITH REFERENCE TO THE AFORESAID STANDALONE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS UNDER CLAUSE (I) OF SUB-SECTION 3 OF SECTION 143 OF THE COMPANIES ACT, 2013 OPINION
We have audited the internal financial controls with reference to financial statements of The Indian Hotels Company Limited ("the Company") as of 31 March 2019 in conjunction with our audit of the standalone financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date.
In our opinion, the Company has, in all material respects, adequate internal financial controls with reference to financial statements and such internal financial controls were operating effectively as at 31 March 2019, based on the internal financial controls with reference to financial statements criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (the "Guidance Note").
The Company's management and the Board of Directors are responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal financial controls with reference to financial statements criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note. These responsibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to Company's policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Companies Act, 2013 (hereinafter referred to as "the Act").
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal financial controls with reference to financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note and the Standards on Auditing, prescribed under section 143(10) of the Act, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls with reference to financial statements. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls with reference to financial statements were established and maintained and whether such controls operated effectively in all material respects.
Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls with reference to financial statements and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls with reference to financial statements included obtaining an understanding of such internal financial controls, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the standalone financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Company's internal financial controls with reference to financial statements.
MEANING OF INTERNAL FINANCIAL CONTROLS wiTH REFERENCE TO STANDALONE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
A Company's internal financial controls with reference to financial statements is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A Company's internal financial controls with reference to financial statements include those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorisations of management and directors of the Company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
INHERENT LIMITATIONS OF INTERNAL FINANCIAL CONTROLS WITH REFERENCE TO STANDALONE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls with reference to financial statements, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls with reference to financial statements to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial controls with reference to financial statements may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
