February 15, 2011…More Than Hope…
We're getting into that time of year where I become a sappy mess. I cry, I love people, I get possessive and protective and I feel like such a part of a community that I'm almost overwhelmed with emotion. Which is big for me since I have always done everything in my power to avoid heavy emotion.
But when it comes to Jakob, other Autism families (especially my Moms) and everyone who loves, accepts and understands our kids, I can't help it.
Here is one of the many blessings that Jakob's diagnosis has given me…friendships and a feeling of unity that I know I never would have experienced without Autism being in our lives.
And I've been experiencing it on the "light" side for the past few years. When we began our Son-Rise Program, we began doing something so drastically different than the mainstream Autism community, I'm not sure if most of my peeps knew what to do with me. I was weird…even for weird people. I became a bit of an outcast amongst the already outcast. At least that's how I felt. May or may not have been true but it was certainly my perception. And it was all good. Each of us has our own journey to take. I realize that now.
But I never stopped loving this Cincinnati Autism Community and wanting the best for everyone in it. I still want that so passionately that I've spent the better part of this afternoon sobbing like a baby. I'm exhausted from it.
Remember the kid who was the manager for his high school basketball team? The kid with Autism whose coach let him dress for one game? He played for 4 minutes and scored 20 points? It was all caught on tape and became a national story? His name was Jason McElwain and that was 5 years ago.
Jakob and I were one year into our Autism diagnosis at the time. I was highly medicated (prescription and otherwise), his father and I were separating and I was terrified for so many reasons. But this kid, his 4 minutes, 20 points and the world's reaction to him was enough to startle me out of my self-induced coma. This kid rocked me.
When the word on the street was "Autism is a lifelong disability with no hope of recovery" and "there's no known treatment" and "this may be as functional as he ever gets", that kid on the basketball court gave us all a glimmer of hope.
And now as I watch that footage again from the game, I still think his 20 points are amazing. But what rocks me 5 years later is all the people surrounding him. From the coach who gave him the chance, to the players who passed him the ball, to the students who were cheering in the stands to the community who picked him up and carried him around the gym on their shoulders. Wow. I wanna live there. I want Jakob to be surrounded by the people in that town. That's the world I want him to know.
Five years later, I know that's what it's gonna take for us to connect with our kids . We have to change. We have to be like the people in that video. That's why our kids are here. They're here to teach us. Not the other way around. They're not broken, we are.
We've forgotten kindness, understanding, patience and unconditional love. And once we get it, once we remember what it's like to live that way, then they'll no longer have the need to be soooo different and they'll reunite with us.
It's time for us to wake up. This small town in New York did. Now five years later, here's where they are. There is so much more to this story than just hope…

Playing chess and outdoor activities like football and basketball!
Danny is the sort of person who never takes no for an answer. Sets out every single day with his best foot forwards and is looking to make every single one of his dreams a tangible reality. Upon realizing that baseball was one of those Danny makes sure to be the first on the baseball diamond and the last off it seeing as hard work is a trademark of his character!
Danny is the first person to step onto the baseball diamond and the last person to come off it. His fast hands and even quicker feet make him a big threat in the outfield where he makes his presence felt. He is expected to see more play time this year at third base where his strong arm and hand eye coordination make him a headache for any opposing team!
A very pragmatic young man.
Danny's work ethic extends into the classroom where his excellent group handling and critical thinking skills contribute to the already great relations he has with his peer and school staff. His pursuit of not only athletic but academic success have allowed him to develop excellent time management skills and have molded him to be as efficient as possible with his time.

A useful application normally has a conventional feature called "undo" or "undo-redo". It is extremely handy and I can't imagine a cyber world without undo-redo. With that said, it is not easy to implement undo-redo features. Convenience for users and headache for developers usually refer to the same thing. To my knowledge, there are no .NET libraries that have enough capability to handle all undo-redo cases because this feature is very specific to every single application. The purpose of this article is to generalize undo-redo as much as possible and to suggest implementation methodology.

Sleight Of Hand are the alternative metal band of the nineties, a refreshing mix of rock, funk, thrash and alternative, which pushes back the boundaries of rock as we know it.
The seeds of Sleight Of Hand were sown when Greg Ansin and Dana Robertson began playing together at the age of ten, By the time they were fourteen, Tom Hoadley had joined them as singer, and the band - then known as Lloose - played a mix of original material and covers at parties and school dances. Aaron Lacharite joined in 1989 and the band became known as Sleight Of Hand. The following year, the band began gigging around Boston's many bars and nightclubs, despite the fact that they were all still Sophomores at High School.
After graduation in 1991, the band started work in the studio, with producer Anthony J. Resta and engineer Bob St. John. One of these tracks eventually made it to the bands debut album.
Following this, in 1993, Brad Miller joined the band and he now five piece, Sleight Of Hand began gigging heavily around Boston, supporting the likes of David Lee Roth and the Mighty Mighty Bosstones.
In 1994, the band signed to Revolver Music, and their debut album appeared on Revolver's Heavy Metal Records label in late 1995. The album, entitle Secede, was produced by Anthony J. Resta, whose credits include Extreme, Nuno Bettencourt, and Duran Duran.

VLS helps churches to find energy efficient lighting solutions. New lighting budgets are often offset by energy savings and reduced operating costs. Replacing existing houselights,exterior lights, and stage lights with LED lighting fixtures can substantially reduce power consumption. Ceramic discharge lighting and fluorescent lights are also great alternatives to tungsten/halogen or incandescent lamps.
In addition to being more energy efficient than the old bulbs, these sources offer greater usable life expectancies. Whether by automated controls, pushbutton, or remote device, lighting systems can be controlled to maximize savings. Check with your energy provider to see if you will qualify for energy reduction grants or rebates.

Die Österreichische Systematik für Öffentliche Bibliotheken (ÖSÖB) ist die in Österreichs öffentlichen Bibliotheken am weitesten verbreitete Systematik. Sie dient der systematischen Aufstellung und Katalogisierung von Sachliteratur, Belletristik sowie Kinder- und Jugendliteratur. Sie geht ursprünglich auf eine Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts in deutschen Freihandbibliotheken der Neuen Bücherhallenbewegung verwendete Gliederung zurück. 1949 wurde sie vom Verband österreichischer Volksbüchereien – dem Vorläufer des Büchereiverbands Österreichs (BVÖ) – in modifizierter Form für die Anwendung in Österreich empfohlen und wird heute von mehr als 80 % der öffentlichen Bibliotheken in Österreich benutzt. Die ÖSÖB ist daher in Österreich noch dominierender als in Deutschland die Allgemeine Systematik für Öffentliche Bibliotheken (ASB). In der größten öffentlichen Bibliothek Österreichs, der Hauptbücherei der Büchereien Wien, kommt eine Variante der ÖSÖB zur Anwendung.

2001–2004 wurde die ÖSÖB vollständig überarbeitet und aktualisiert. Die 2., ebenfalls überarbeitete und um die Beschlagwortung der Kinder- und Jugendmedien erweiterte Auflage der ÖSÖB erschien 2012 in 2 Bänden. An der Pflege und Weiterentwicklung sind auch Anwenderbibliotheken der ÖSÖB beteiligt. Die Redaktion der ÖSÖB liegt beim Büchereiverband Österreichs.

Charakterisierung der ÖSÖB
Bei der ÖSÖB handelt es sich um eine monohierarchisch aufgebaute Systematik, deren Notationen aus Buchstaben gebildet werden. Die oberste Hierarchieebene umfasst 15 Gruppen, die nach sachlichen, formalen und leserpsychologischen Kriterien bis zu einer Gliederungstiefe von 5 Buchstaben weiter unterteilt werden.

Die verbale Definition der einzelnen Klassen geschieht durch den Systematiknamen (er dient der kurzen, prägnanten Charakterisierung der Systematikgruppe und wird für die Regalbeschriftung, die Buchstützenschilder und die Bezeichnung im OPAC benötigt), durch Erläuterungen (sie enthalten zusätzliche, frei formulierte Angaben zum Begriffsumfang der Systematikgruppe, die im Systematiknamen selbst nicht untergebracht werden können), durch Verweisungen (sie weisen auf ähnliche Inhalte hin, die in der Systematik aber an anderer Stelle eingeordnet sind und machen somit – durch das strenge monohierarchische Ordnungsprinzip hindurch – Querverbindungen der miteinander verflochtenen Wissensgebiete sichtbar), sowie durch Schlagwörter bzw. Schlagwortketten (sie ermöglichen den punktuellen Zugriff auf ein Themengebiet).

Ein besonderer Vorteil der ÖSÖB ist ihre freie Verfügbarkeit im Internet. Neben dieser Online-Version steht auf der Seite des Büchereiverbands Österreichs (BVÖ) auch eine Anwenderberatung zur Verfügung, die umfangreiche allgemeine Informationen zur Systematik bietet und als Kontaktstelle für Anwenderbibliotheken dient.

Die Hauptgruppen der Systematik
A – Allgemeines
B – Biographisches
D – Belletristik
E – Reisen, regionale Geographie, Landeskunde
F – Fremdsprachige Schriften
G – Geschichte. Gesellschaft. Politik. Medien. Recht. Wirtschaft
J – Kinder- und Jugendmedien
K – Kunst. Musik. Film. Theater. Tanz
N – Naturwissenschaften. Landwirtschaft. Medizin. Mathematik. Technik
P – Buch-, Bibliotheks-, Dokumentations- und Informationswesen. Philosophie. Sprache. Literatur. Pädagogik. Psychologie. Religion
S – Spiele
T – CDs, CD-Roms, Videos, DVDs, DVD-Roms, E-Medien
V – Freizeit, Spiele, Hobbys. Haushalt, Kochen, Wohnen. Sport
W – Internetressourcen
Z – Zeitschriften

We were delighted to showcase our solar program during the 2014 Green Strides Best Practices Tour which visited BVSD Sept 17. Approximately 8 percent of our district-wide energy needs are met by solar, with panels on 28 of our 55 schools. By taking advantage of community partnerships, grants and bond money, we've been able to install solar power in schools across the district.
The Renew Our Schools Program, for example, helped support the installation of solar panels at Arapahoe Ridge High School and kick-started the creation of a Green Team, who we heard from on the first stop of the tour. This team led efforts to green the school, including competing in BVSD's Energy Challenge, an effort to conserve energy through behavioral change among building occupants. While the solar panels help raise awareness about alternative energy and give students data to manipulate, student-led conservation measures, such as educating the school community about ways to save energy, auditing the school's usage and taking follow up action on the findings, lead to even greater energy savings.
Additionally, a bond program in 2006 funded the solar panels and other green features at LEED Platinum Casey Middle School, which was also part of the tour. The solar panels double as cover for bike parking, offering shade and weather protection to the many students who bike to school year-round as part of the Alternative Transportation Program. Teachers at Casey incorporate live data from the Green Touch Screen and hosted Energy Days in which students learned about solar energy and baked cookies using a solar oven, among other interactive lessons. The sun not only provides clean electricity, but floods the school with natural daylight by design, so students and staff can be at their most productive.
During the tour's stop at Columbine Elementary, before visiting the community supported gardens and growing dome greenhouse, we headed to the rooftop to see the roughly 100kW photovoltaic system. The system is part of a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) BVSD signed with Solar City in June 2011. The 14 schools in the agreement have large-scale systems that provide an additional 1.4 MW of solar power for the district and 15 to 30 percent of each school's electricity. All the schools in the PPA have websites showing live data from the solar panels and real-time energy consumption. These schools are using materials provided by the National Energy Education Development Project and Solar City for lessons about renewable energy and efficiency, providing standards-based real life examples of sustainability, math and science.
The Sustainability Management System has guided this work, and the District has saved hundreds of thousands of dollars and has significantly reduced our environmental footprint. However, we see the real value from our sustainability efforts in educating our students and using these opportunities to prepare our students to be engaged environmental stewards and successful, life-long learners.
Dr. Ghita Carroll is Sustainability Coordinator at the Boulder Valley School District.


Funding has been received from Crapper & Sons, via the Landfill Communities Fund scheme, for the construction of the Dauntsey Lock Canal Centre.
This funding, added to generous donations from supporters, has meant that we have been able to order the second building and construction will start beginning of October when the buildings are delivered.
Many thanks to all our funders.
After 12 months work with Wiltshire Council Planning and Listed Building Officers, the Trust was given permission to build the Dauntsey Lock Canal Centre at the rear of the Peterborough Arms in temporary buildings.
The Canal Centre's new buildings will be the home for our Transitions Project, the Trust Office and Visitor Centre and also an engineering office.The Transitions Project programmes have been developed in partnership with other groups to help vulnerable individuals in our communities to access and appreciate the benefits of the canal, its heritage and culture, as well as the waterside environment. WBCT will be able to welcome partners WSUN, Lyneham 3Ms Memory Café and Swindon Community Art Group among others to the new facility.
Trust Chairman Roderick Bluh said: "This is a great step forward for our project and we are looking forward to welcoming our Transitions Project partners, community groups and our members to the new centre".

The time has actually lastly come: Your old, bumpy bed is on its last legs, as well as you need to purchase a brand-new one. You've currently chosen that you wish to get the best memory foam bed mattress, however exactly how can you find the absolute best one to fulfill your demands?
In some cases referred to as viscoelastic polyurethane foam, memory foam is a type of foam that adjusts to your weight as well as shape as well as temperature. Memory foam with slower action times can lead to a "sinking in" sensation as well as can likewise lead to an increased risk of resting hot.
Bear in mind the bed mattress you select is not likely to be totally memory foam. Memory foam is a lot more pricey to make and is best utilized near the top of the bed mattress, where it can offer pressure relief and also comfort. The interior core of a bed mattress will certainly often be stronger foam, such as polyurethane foam (polyfoam), or one more product such as innerspring coils.
memory foam mattress materialAs of what it's made from? That depends upon the type of cushion you acquire. Generally, these rest surface areas are constructed from viscoelastic polyurethane foam, a kind that's dense, viscous, and extremely padded.
Many new-generation designs are made from plant-based foams, which are derived from active ingredients like soybeans. They often tend to be just as comfy, and they include some other large benefits. (More about those in a bit.).
Below are some of the top reasons that memory foam is usually selected over basic springtime beds.
Laying in the very same position for hrs can leave you pretty unpleasant. Conforming to your form indicates decreasing this pain by relieving pressure on your body.
It maintains your back and back lined up. Unlike spring designs, these beds don't sag. Instead, they disperse your weight throughout the bed equally to contour to your body's natural contours. This helps your back and spinal column keep in a neutral setting while you sleep, so it does not bend and also make you unpleasant.
It functions for any type of sleeping placement. It can cradle and also support every part of your body while you snooze due to the fact that it's moldable. That's true whether you rest on your back, side, stomach, or a mix of all three.
Movement doesn't matter. Beds made from this unique product take in motion rather of distributing it. You are less most likely to observe their motion if your companion changes positions or gets out of bed. You can't say that about a springtime cushion.
It's hypoallergenic. If you struggle with allergies foam might be the right choice for you. The materials as well as thickness aid lessen the formation of allergen, which are the leading reason for indoor allergic reactions. That exact same density can also aid repel other usual irritants like mold and mildew and family pet dander.
It's a terrific fit for flexible beds. Some of the finest adjustable beds have actually been expanding in appeal over the previous couple of years, and memory foam cushions stay one of their most suitable companions.
Upkeep is very easy. Due to the fact that it isn't susceptible to sagging or lumpy areas, there's no requirement to bother with rotating or flipping your mattress on a monthly basis to keep it uniformly comfortable. It's nice to have one much less task to check off your checklist, isn't it?
It'll last longer. Because they absorb less mold and mildew, allergen, and other substances, a foam-based version can last longer when compared to an innerspring version. Premium foam cushions can remain comfortable for 10 years or even more.
Often referred to as viscoelastic polyurethane foam, memory foam is a kind of foam that adjusts to your weight and also shape and temperature. Maintain in mind the cushion you choose is not likely to be completely memory foam. Memory foam is a lot more costly to make and is best utilized near the top of the cushion, where it can give stress relief and also convenience. The indoor core of a cushion will almost constantly be sturdier foam, such as polyurethane foam (polyfoam), or an additional material such as innerspring coils.
Some of the best flexible beds have been expanding in popularity over the past couple of years, and also memory foam cushions continue to be one of their most compatible partners.
As a crossbreed cushion, the DreamCloud satisfies most of our requirements for what a quality bed should offer. With 8 special layers of convenience and also assistance, the DreamCloud makes use of all the best materials in its construction.
Also though it makes use of several memory foam layers, as a Medium Firm feel, there is no hug or substantial contouring to the bed. Action on from the DreamCloud if you're looking to sink right into a mattress.
A swiped coil assistance core keeps you lined up all evening long, especially so for all you back sleepers available.
To learn more about whatever the DreamCloud has to provide, including our scores and also referrals, pricing details, as well as building and construction information, checked out on.
Lightweight and relatively very easy to move.
365-night rest trial as well as life time service warranty with very little charges for owners.
Shipment of the DreamCloud mattress is FREE! It is pressed as well as roll-packed into a cardboard box prior to being provided directly to your front door. It normally takes 8-10 service days from the time you acquire up until the bed shows up (but maybe quicker, depending upon your area).
When you receive the mattress we suggest bringing it to the room you want it in prior to opening it. After it is in the wanted area eliminate it from the box utilizing scissors to reduce the plastic– but be very cautious not to harm the material of the bed when you do so. As soon as the plastic is reduced cost-free you can see your bed increase! It will be fully expanded within 24 hours or so, however you will be able to rest on it prior to then.
DreamCloud take the shipment service one step additionally with their White Glove delivery service. They specify on their internet site that they will certainly hand supply the mattress to your desired space as well as set it up for you. They will certainly likewise improve all the product packaging, and also even eliminate your old cushion so you do not have to.
With their cost-free delivery and dedication to doing the hefty lifting for their customers, the DreamCloud gets complete marks in this section.
As the DreamCloud is opened up and starts broadening promptly you will just discover a slight 'brand-new mattress' smell. 'Off-Gassing' to me is a somewhat deceptive term, since regardless of what brand name you are checking out, they are going to have a smell. Natural and also organic mattresses typically times have the strongest smell, also though people associate them with no gassing.
For maximum result, stand the cushion up on its very own to enable it to air better, yet at the end of the day, the 'brand-new bed scent' is just a normal part of buying a mattress.
The DreamCloud mattress is already remarkable sufficient with its massive 15 inches tall account, that of which is extraordinary for a bed mattress. Its eight-layer building and construction includes covered coil parts and also foam, which perfectly to provide the sleeper with a comfy pressure alleviation and company innerspring lift.
This layer is 2 ″ of TrueTufted cashmere leading cover that offers comfort and the elegant visual to the bed mattress. The DreamCloud is hand tufted which is something that you generally locate in bed mattress costing 3 or 4 times a lot more.
This 1.75 ″ layer of soft Quilted Memory Foam developed to give stress relief and comfort.
This layer is.5 ″ of all-natural hypoallergenic latex developed to give bounce and shape.
This layer.5 ″ of DreamPlush is a high-density supportive memory foam that functions to give a change layer in between the top convenience layers as well as the lower coil support layer.
This layer is an 8 ″ premium steel taken innerspring coils with 5-zone layers that supply phenomenal support to the body. It has a differing stiffness that depends on the area which gives you the support where it is required most.
This layer is a last 1.5 ″ of high thickness very soft memory foam that provides the structure layer of the mattress with deep compression assistance.
The manufacturing of DreamCloud mattress can be considered as artisanal. Artisan stitchers hand-anchor a EuroTop to thick foam base by utilizing genuine double tufts, a stitch that provides unparalleled workmanship and also long lasting longevity.
In instance you do not know, dual tufting is an unique process of affixing the bed mattress layers from leading to lower to create an one-of-a-kind bed mattress with both soft and firm feeling. Besides its first-rate composition, the cover is made even more explicit with its golden tone and also deluxe hand tufting.
This excellent mattress will certainly function terrific on any strong surface. The flooring, platform slats, box springtime or structure as well as they currently supply an adjustable base.
It will work on a flexible base but if you are seeking to flex it a load to website directly, it could be a little thick to collaborate with. But it will flex to a point just great if you are trying to find partial elevation.
The DreamCloud aims as high as the clouds in its name, with 8 layers of premium bedding products that integrate to generate a lightweight, serene sleep.
The taken coil base is quiet enough to make you forget it's there, but when you put down on the mattress you will most definitely really feel the advantage it gives. The springs provide a support base for the multi-layered memory foam on top, enabling for better pressure-relief than purely memory-foam bed mattress.
The coils are contained in 5 zones throughout the mattress, which means the ideal component of the bed mattress reacts at the right moment, without flexing and buckling the entire surface area. This can be really felt the minute you rest on the bed mattress– it takes your weight comfortably without creating a giant sink-hole that makes whatever roll towards you.
DreamCloud advertise the mattress as a 6.5 on the suppleness range, which they call the sweet area in between as well strong and also also soft. This matches with the crowd of on-line customers who applaud the bed mattress's ability to 'hug you', while still being strong adequate to supply great back and also muscle assistance.
The very first point you'll observe about the mattress is the tufted surface area which really looks like a network of little clouds. The 'clouds' on the surface area are constructed of an extremely breathable, super-soft cashmere, and you will certainly still really feel the advantage of these also of you make a decision to utilize a mattress-protector.
The DreamCloud can be made use of with any type of base, or no base. It can be made use of on the floor, on a slatted bed, as well as also on adjustable beds.

In mathematics, specifically in order theory and functional analysis, a normed lattice is a topological vector lattice that is also a normed space whose unit ball is a solid set.
Normed lattices are important in the theory of topological vector lattices. They are closely related to Banach vector lattices, which are normed vector lattices that are also Banach spaces.

Properties

Every normed lattice is a locally convex vector lattice.

The strong dual of a normed lattice is a Banach lattice with respect to the dual norm and canonical order.
If it is also a Banach space then its continuous dual space is equal to its order dual.

Examples

Every Banach lattice is a normed lattice.

Bailiff Fails to Execute Arrest Warrant as Petra Group Boss Not Home
TTN
A court bailiff failed to execute an arrest warrant against businessperson Vinod Sekhar in relation to a civil forfeiture case.
According to lawyer Colin Pereira, who is representing Irish national John Slattery in his US$108,000 (RM449,000) suit against the Petra Group chairperson, the bailiff went to Vinod's house in Bukit Tunku, Kuala Lumpur, this morning.
"Neither the judgment debtor nor his family was at home when the bailiff arrived to arrest him.
"The security guard was unable to confirm where they were. The judgment debtor's Facebook seems to suggest that he is in London," he said in a statement.
Pereira also sent Malaysiakini a screenshot of Vinod's Facebook post on Sept 10, which shows his location as in London.
He claimed that attempts to contact Vinod on his mobile phone proved futile. Messages sent were read but there was no response.
It was reported that Slattery sued Vinod to claim the US$108,000 which he had paid the businessperson in 2017 as an investment into Green Rubber Sdn Bhd.
The court made a judgment in default, awarding the amount to Slattery on June 11 following Vinod's failure to appear before the court.
Slattery's lawyers then secured a writ of seizure from the court after Vinod failed to respond to the court judgment, which led to the bailiff raiding his house on Aug 7 and seizing items estimated to be worth RM150,000.
The seized properties were scheduled to go for public auction yesterday but was halted after Vinod's wife obtained a temporary stay from the court to file her claim over the items.
Pereira said if it is true that Vinod is overseas, this would be a surprise as he should not have been allowed to leave Malaysia.
He said two letters were sent to the Immigration Department last month informing them that the Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court had issued an arrest warrant against Vinod.
"If the judgment debtor is in fact overseas, then my client is indeed surprised to learn that he was allowed to leave the country despite the immigration authorities being informed that a warrant of arrest had been issued against him.
"My client has asked me to seek clarification again from the immigration authorities and to raise the matter up with MACC, if necessary.
"We have also sought clarification from the director-general of the Insolvency Department on whether the judgment debtor, as a bankrupt, obtained consent to leave the country as required by Section 38 of the Insolvency Act," he added.
Meanwhile, Vinod told Malaysiakini that he had "no idea" about the arrest warrant.
"This is obviously at the request of the plaintiff. I am not in Kuala Lumpur but will ask my lawyers to address this," he said, but did not respond to a question if he was in London.
The response was in contrast to Pereira's claim that the businessperson had been made aware much earlier that there was an arrest warrant against him and that he should surrender to court.
Vinod also denied that items were seized from his residence, claiming that the court had granted a stay against the writ to seize.
"I have instructed my lawyers to take the necessary action and will be addressing this matter legally and will take the necessary action," he said in a statement.
Vinod claimed that Slattery invested in his company on the latter's own request and that the Irish national was then offered positions to market the company for a salary.
"He did not perform. Disputes arose between the parties and it was under negotiation and mediation by representatives of the company.
"Whilst I was away and hospitalised, he had escalated this to a court matter and obtained a judgement in default ex-parte.
"When we were made aware, we started renegotiations as advised by my lawyers. Once again, while I am away, he has obtained a writ of seizure ex-parte and is escalating the matter," he added. – Malaysiakini

Survey: Teen alcohol, marijuana use rising again
Marijuana plant (Jan. 12, 2010) Photo Credit: Getty Images
By CAROL POLSKY carol.polsky@newsday.com Updated March 2, 2010 10:09 PM
After a decade of decline, teen use of alcohol and marijuana rose last year, according to a national survey released Tuesday by the nonprofit Partnership for a Drug-Free America.
Local substance-abuse experts agreed that those trends are evident on Long Island, which has seen more attention paid to the sharp upswing in heroin and opiate pill use.
"I am not surprised by the study: I believe [it] reflects what we're seeing," said Cari Besserman, vice president and director for Long Island services for the drug-treatment program Phoenix House.
He said drug use isn't limited to "the student failing out of school or experiencing financial instability at home. It's the cheerleader and the straight-A student who are also experimenting and increasing the use of these drugs."
The results, based on questionnaires filled out by 3,287 9th- through 12th-graders, found an increase compared with 2008 among those who said that in the past month they'd consumed alcohol (39 percent, up from 35 percent) or marijuana (38 percent, up from 32 percent).
Fewer reported strongly negative feelings toward substance use (30 percent, down from 35 percent), as more said friends were likely to get high at parties (75 percent, up from 69 percent) and agreed that "being high feels good" (51 percent, up from 45 percent).
Jeffrey Reynolds, executive director of the Long Island Council of Alcoholism and Drug Dependence, said he agreed "a hundred percent" that teen alcohol and marijuana use are up. Compared with the national findings, heroin use is greater here and Ecstasy use lower, he said.
LICADD does screening, brief intervention, treatment placement and relapse prevention.
"Our calls in the past year are up 400 percent for adolescents," Reynolds said.
According to Jennifer Farrell, spokeswoman for the state Office of Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Services, 1,680 Long Islanders ages 12-17 were admitted to treatment programs from January 2008 to January 2009. Of those, 370 were for alcohol, 1,243 for marijuana, 162 involved heroin and other opiates, 34 for crack and 51 for other drugs, including Ecstasy.
Caroline Sullivan, director of Daytop Village Suffolk Outreach in Huntington Station, said her organization has about 60 clients aged 13 to 25 in its outpatient and intensive outpatient programs.
"Absolutely, between the ages of 13 and 18 alcohol and marijuana use has skyrocketed over the last four or five years," she said, even as the age of clients seeking treatment has dropped to 15-16 from 17-18.
"What has increased dramatically is the number of second-generation substance abusers," she said. "Mom and dad are still smoking pot and now their kids are smoking pot, too."
The survey also interviewed 800 parents and concluded that most waited too long to seek treatment for their children.

The Asian Development Bank (ADB) has approved funding of $100m to modernise ageing equipment and improve power generation capacity at the Uch-Kurgan hydropower plant (HPP) along the Naryn River cascade in the Kyrgyz Republic.
The ADB assistance comprises a $60m loan and a $40m grant from the Asian Development Fund.
The funding is expected to strengthen the Kyrgyz Republic's energy self-sufficiency and increase its potential for renewed energy exports to neighbouring countries in Central Asia.
ADB will also administer a $45m loan from the Eurasian Development Bank for the project.
The Uch-Kurgan hydropower plant is the oldest of the six HPPs installed along the Naryn River cascade.
Located 271km southwest of the country's capital Bishkek, Uch-Kurgan HPP began operating in 1962 and was used as a baseload plant.
Since then, no major improvement works have been taken up. Replacing and modernising ageing equipment will increase power generation at Uch-Kurgan and also maintain the integrity of the power system in the Naryn River cascade.
The Naryn River cascade is the powerhouse of the Kyrgyz Republic with the six HPPs producing 92% of the country's hydropower supply.
The modernisation project will restore full operation of all four generating units of Uch-Kurgan HPP with increased total capacity of 216MW, from the original capacity of 180MW.
The funding will also be used for the reinforcement of the HPP's hydraulic steel structure and dam infrastructure, while making all eight bottom outlet gates operational.
Silt and sedimentation will also be removed to help restore proper operation of the HPP's hydromechanical equipment.
The ADB assistance will also support capacity building of Electric Power Plants (EPP), the project's executing agency, especially in its commitment to operational sustainability and diversity by establishing the EPP's engineer's accreditation programme and through the recruitment of 10 women engineers in the next two years.

Germany challenges Facebook on personal data, Google agrees to police its ads: are these landmark events?
The world wide web celebrated its 28th birthday a fortnight ago. It's an invention that ranks alongside the wheel, immunisation against disease and the internal combustion engine as a transformer of human existence. As an open information digital connector, it is an extraordinary force for individual liberation, embodying the very best of Enlightenment values: more information is available to more people through their mobile phones and personal computers than ever before.
This article was amended on 31 March 2017 to distinguish between the world wide web and the internet.


these cupcakes are my absolute favorite kind of company for a night of lounging with my best of tv show buddies - that is, Phil Dunphy and Jessa Johansson. I'll quote Phil to introduce you to the magic of the lemony chocolatey goodness below: "When life gives you lemonade, make lemons. Life will be all like 'Whaaat?!"
Whish butter, flour, cocoa, sugar, baking powder and salt with a whisk or mixer until everything is mixed.
Whisk milk, egg and vanilla sugar in another bowl or tall glass, and mix the contents of the two bowls together. Whisk until the mixture is smooth. Add the chopped chocolate.
Half fill 10 silikone muffin cups. Bake for 18-20 minutes and patiently let the cupcakes cool to room temperature. Otherwise the frosting will melt, when applied.
Whisk together icing sugar, butter, whole milk and lemon juice for the frosting. The more you whisk, the whiter the frosting will get, but a few minutes should be more than enough. Remember to gently mix everything with a spoon before whisking, to avoid inhaling an icing sugar cloud.

Q: C# OOP specific params while extending class I have a class ClassA that has a protected property of type class AttA, a class ClassB that extends from ClassA and a class AttB that extends from AttA.
In class ClassA I want to use the property AttA but in class ClassB I want to use the more specific property AttB.
Is there a way to do so?
class ClassA
{
    protected AttA att;

    public void MyMethod()
    {
        // using att as AttA
    }
}

class ClassB : ClassA
{
    public override void MyMethod()
    {
         // Want to use att as AttB (if possible without downcasting)
    }
}

Thanks.

A: A simple way is to use the new keyword:
class ClassA
{
  protected AttA att;
  public virtual void MyMethod()
  {
  }
}

class ClassB : ClassA
{
  new protected AttB att;
  public override void MyMethod()
  {
  }
}

class AttA
{
}

class AttB : AttA
{
}

But this may causes problems on using polymorphism because writing:
var b = new ClassB();

//b.att is type of AttB here

var a = (ClassA)b;

//a.att is type of AttA here and it is not the same variable

In fact, there is two fields att depending of the type you manipulate, so be carefull in the classes implementations especially when calling base members from child class.
Since the field is protected this problem is limited.
On the contrary this may be exactly what is needed.
https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/csharp/language-reference/keywords/new-modifier

I tried to find a generic solution, but since C# does not support true generic polymorphism, and we can't constraint a generic type parameter on one type for one class type, this is impossible, as I know - or it requires writing some code using reflection which can be overengineered here unless it is necessary (thus it will be possible to have the same variable between classes hierarchy exposing the desired polymorphed type).

The request came after two Italian men were remanded in custody after appearing in court charged in connection with an incident which left Liverpool fan, Sean Cox, fighting for his life.
Lombardi was also charged with wounding/inflicting grievous bodily harm on 53-year-old Mr Cox, who suffered serious head injuries when he was assaulted before the match between Liverpool and Roma.
It is believed Liverpool requested the meeting after becoming increasingly frustrated with the lack of detailed arrangements in response to their request for clarity on a number of security issues for Wednesday's semi-final second leg and want the issues sorted on Friday.
Liverpool have sold 5,000 tickets for the upcoming match, but despite several meetings and lengthy correspondence they remain troubled by the lack of evidence of planning put in place in the Italian city.
The club want answers on issues like plans for a safe shuttle service for fans from the Stadio Olimpico - with Liverpool prepared to meet additional costs - what time turnstiles open, which areas of the city are to be avoided and what safe routes are available if there is no shuttle service.
Supporters also face identity checks at the turnstiles after Roma requested each ticket be individually named, creating concerns there could be significant bottlenecks entering the stadium.
A delegation from the club, which raised fears immediately after the draw was made, was due to travel to Rome on Thursday in the hope of getting some answers.
In a statement, Liverpool said it was "continuing to do everything in its power to provide supporters travelling to Rome next week with the most comprehensive safety and security advice" and that it hopes the "extraordinary meeting will provide the necessary reassurances and essential information.
"This, if provided, will allow the club to fully inform supporters of the measures that will be in place.
"The club thanks its fans for their on-going engagement on this issue and would hope to provide a detailed update following the meeting."
Supporters without tickets have been advised not to travel to the Italian capital for the tie, which Liverpool lead 5-2 from the first leg.


I have recently returned to town. I'm trying to catch up on town affairs. Luckily, several of the community TV programs have been taping meetings. I watched the Bethel High School building committee and was surprised to see they were so confused as to what they want the voters to vote on, even after two years of meetings. I wondered why the chairman of the Board of Finance was fighting with the architect over how vague the plans were after giving the committee a blank check for $29 million. I also learned from watching the tape that the building committee is going to tear up the old gym and move the cafeteria, even though it doesn't seem to make any sense to most of them. They say they have to follow the specifications ordered by the Board of Education. I wish the committee members would show more courage in spending my tax money wisely. I also watched the school-sponsored government forum on Bethel Ed. T.V. This helped me realize that the Bethel Board of Education operates differently than other boards of education. They don't supervise the superintendent. They seem to have a kind of partnership with him in making decisions and budgets and they seem to be the junior partners. The teachers are treated like mercenaries in that the board only deals with them through the superintendent. I learned that the town is going to pay the election fines because they are so big. If they were only $50 each, people would say let them pay. It will teach them a lesson. This is a bad precedent. Why don't the Democrats and Republicans have a joint fund-raiser? Maybe they could learn to get along better and not stick the taxpayers for their incompetence.


i think what strikes me most forcibly at this point is that for all the effort i've put into living right - and there are many of us who are making this effort - going through our twelve-step programs, cleaning up our addictions, working out regularly and cultivating a healthy lifestyle, maintaining good family relationships and successful work habits, supporting our spiritual well-being and communities - all of it in the belief that we are creating something solid and lasting - at the end of the day it all has to be dismantled and taken down. I don't mean this as a negative statement - it may sound as if I do - but no, i'm just saying, this is a very different process. i still believe that the 'dismantlement' stage is firmly founded in the quality of the life we've created. the end of life hardly stands alone. people talk about a 'flow' of life, and of 'being in the flow.' For me, there has been a 'flow' of time, seasons, ideas, people, activities, and i can recognize the places in my life where i was rather slow to catch the wave, and other times when i was surfing the pipeline, but i was never capable of complete free-flow, i always needed a safe harbor, where i could 'return to base,' and i found that in my relationship with my partner and the home we created together. This will also have to be 'dismantled' - I think I find that hardest of all. And when I say 'dismantled,' I don't mean only in the physical sense of that word, but also in terms of how I think of myself, my life, my relationships. I'm going to have to find some other 'base' as I make the final transition - I can see that already. Of course, I have my faith in God, and a rich inner life, lots of spiritual artistry, so perhaps it will not be too difficult to re-form my base even more securely around that. All the great spiritual traditions tell us that this is what we need to do.
To the objective mind this incident marked a growing conscious interest in science. But now I suddenly guessed that to another part of the mind it meant something else. Just as I had once before discovered that I had two quite different groups of ideas about God, (see "A Life of One's Own, J.P. Tarcher, inc), according to whether I thought deliberately, or simply let thought come of their own accord, so this rock had two different meanings. To part of my mind it was an interesting geological specimen, to the other it stood now for the idea of hidden inner fires, powerful and unaccountable, upheaving and rending the surface. The first meaning had left me bored and depressed at the futility of what I was writing, the second had given me such deep satisfaction that I knew it was one of those significant memories from childhood that my questing imagination had been groping after.


FIA race director Charlie Whiting says Formula 1 race stewards' decisions are made without weighing up the impact of each incident and Sebastian Vettel's five-second time penalty for clashing with Valtteri Bottas was in line with previous decisions.
Vettel locked up his rears and slid into Bottas at the first turn in the French Grand Prix, which saw both drivers pick up sustained damage, while the Ferrari driver was held responsible for the accident and given a five-second time penalty.
Depsite serving his penalty, Vettel still finished the race at Paul Ricard ahead of Bottas with the Germnan in fifth place ahead of the Mercedes driver in seventh place at the chequered flag.
Whiting says the penalty was consistent with other incidents from earlier this season, with Romain Grosjean was also handed the same penalty for clashing Esteban Ocon at the start of the race, and the follow-on from clashes aren't considered by race stewards.
"They [F1 race stewards] had four options open to them," Whiting said. "A five-second penalty, 10-second penalty, drive through penalty or stop and go penalty.
Hamilton says Vettel's penalty was "a tap on the hand" as he felt Mercedes were denied a possible 1-2 finish in the French GP while the German fully accepted his fault in the incident.
