Players Who Could Replicate Mo Salah's Phenomenal 17/18 Season
by The Taylor TakeOver - September 13, 2018 October 2, 2019
Mohamed Salah's incredible first season at Liverpool rocked the Premier League. He came back a completely different player to the explosive yet erratic and inconsistent winger that left Chelsea for Fiorentina in 2015 having hardly featured for the blues. While nobody could have predicted his record-breaking 32 Premier League goals

Lerna (Site)
Aerial view of site and bay, from E, Lerna
Overview, showing early Helladic remains and the later shaft graves and gr...
Summary: Archaeologically important Early Bronze Age settlement.
Type: Settlement
Region: Argolid
Early Bronze Age
Middle Bronze Age
Lerna is one of the largest (ca. 180 sq. m.) prehistoric mounds in S Greece and probably owed its importance to its position on the narrow strip of land between sea and mountains that formed the route from the Argolid to the S Peloponnese.
It is located in the marshy area on the Gulf of Argos (10 km S of Argos). Early Bronze Age Lerna had substantial fortification walls and a palace or administrative center in a central building referred to as the "House of Tiles." This was a large two-story building with terracotta rooftiles and several storage rooms where clay sealings were found. In Classical times the area was claimed as home of the Nereids, place where Herakles slew the Hydra and location of the entrance to Hades (through the Aleyonean Lake).
After a long period of Neolithic occupation (Lerna I and II) the site seems to have been deserted for a time before it was levelled off and reoccupied in the Early Helladic II period (Lerna III). The new settlement had a double ring of defense walls with gates and towers and a number of substantial buildings within. The largest building has been named the House of Tiles because of the unusual early occurrence of terracotta roofing tiles associated with the building. The walls of the large building are nearly 1 m thick and stairs indicate an upper story. The building was perhaps still under construction when the whole settlement was destroyed by fire.
In the Early Helladic III period (Lerna IV), the inhabitants (who supposedly destroyed the earlier settlement) covered the site of the House of Tiles with a low tumulus surrounded by a ring of stones, as though to mark off a sacred area.
In the Early Helladic III period Lerna was an open settlement of smaller buildings, some of them having an apsidal megaron floor plan. Bothroi, or "rubbish pits" were an unusual characteristic of this settlement. The Early Helladic III levels at Lerna produced, in addition to the typical pottery of that period, a few examples of a pottery type known as "Minyan" ware, which was sometimes wheel-made and is a common feature of the Middle Helladic period. The clearly defined Middle Helladic level at Lerna (Lerna V) follows without a break.
The settlement at Lerna continues to exist throughout the Middle Helladic period, but does not continue into the Late Helladic or Mycenaean period. At the end of the Middle Helladic period, 2 rectangular shaft graves were cut into the tumulus of the House of Tiles, indicating that the meaning of that monument had been forgotten.

Woman slips as she leaves a bus
by Stephen Bilkis
A woman took the bus. As she was about to go down from the bus, while walking down the aisle toward the exit, she slipped on something slippery on the floor. She had a slip and fallwhich landed her on her bottom. She sustained spinal injury, specifically in her lumbar spine and cervical spine.
The Staten Island woman sued the transit authority which operated the bus along with the city government which owned the bus. After the depositions were taken and discovery was closed, the transit authority filed a motion for summary procedure asking that the woman's complaint be dismissed for failure to show that she sustained a serious injury.
The woman opposed the motion for summary judgment arguing that this is not the usual motor vehicle accident and that she was not suing merely under a "no fault" law. She claims to have raised issues of negligence. She claims that the transit authority and the city government did not exercise reasonable care in keeping the buses safe for passengers and clean enough so that passengers would avoid a slip and fall while riding on the bus.

A fifty-three year old medical secretary had been working at a hospital for a number of years
A fifty-three year old Nassau medical secretary had been working at a hospital for a number of years when on December 29, 1967 she slipped on a door sill. The medical secretary fractured her left hip. A nail and a pin were used to repair the medical secretary's hip. She was confined to bed at a nursing home for six months. The medical secretary filed a claim for permanent total disability benefits. After her surgery, a neurologist examined the medical secretary and found that she was also suffering from a spinal degenerative process and that around thirty to fifty per cent of her condition was related to the degenerative disease instead of to the accident.
For this cause, the employer refused to pay the permanent total disability benefits after six months. The employer claims to have paid for her medical care until maximum medical improvement had been reached. After the sixth month, the total disability of the medical secretary was no longer due to the accident at work but it was due to the pr-existing spinal disease.
At the trial, the Suffolk doctor to whom the medical secretary was assigned testified that the medical secretary had worked for him for years. And he had been largely satisfied with the medical secretary's work performance. However, he had noticed that the medical secretary's health has been consistently and continuously deteriorating. She had lost a lot of weight and appeared severely malnourished. She had difficulty walking and often, she had to brace herself because she was unsteady on her feet. The doctor testified that had the medical secretary not injured herself, he would have asked her to resign. Her work has deteriorated just before the accident. If the medical secretary applied for a job on the day of his accident, he would not have hired her. He thought that the woman's severe malnutrition could also be the reason why a slip resulted in a severe fracture.

The plaintiff sustained serious and catastrophic injuries
The plaintiff sustained serious and catastrophic injuries when he fell while traversing a trench at a construction site in the Bronx. As a result of plaintiff's fall into a trench at the job site he became impaled on a reinforcement bar (rebar) that was surgically removed several hours after his admission to the hospital. It is in this setting that the jury, after a trial and after hearing testimony from plaintiff's physicians and other experts regarding the devastating and traumatic nature of the personal injuries he sustained, rendered a verdict in the sum of $86 million including $20 million for past pain and suffering and $55 million for future pain and suffering.
A Lawyer said that, plaintiff's treating physician, the Director of Spinal Cord Services at Helen Hayes Hospital, described in explicit detail the nature and effect of the spinal injuries plaintiff incurred. The Doctor provided the court and jury, inter alia, with a graphic picture of plaintiff's suffering, stating in part, that the pain plaintiff continues to experience "is of two types. He has nerve pain in his legs, and that nerve pain is perhaps one of the worst pains that you could think of. Imagine somebody stabbing you with a knife, a gazillion times, or with a pin all over the place. That numbness, that tingling, that stabbing sensation" is "present all the time, but it is a constant pain and that pain will not go away." He depicted plaintiff's chronic pain by providing the jury with a vivid description of the damage to plaintiff's spinal column when the rebar went into the area of his spinal cord and the compression fracture also caused by the pipe entering his body. He described the emotional pain sustained by the plaintiff caused by the distress of no longer having the ability to walk and the nerve pain emanating from his legs which he testified was permanent. The jury also heard testimony regarding plaintiff's chronic bed sores, his cauterization in order to urinate, his inability to control bowel movements, constant urinary tract infections and repeated hospitalization for the conditions described by the Brooklyn Doctor.
A Lawyer said that, the defendant moves pursuant to CPLR §4404 and §5501, to reduce the damages awarded to the plaintiff, after a jury trial, contending that the award is excessive and materially deviates from fair and reasonable compensation.

MD2 seeks an order granting summary judgment dismissing the complaint
The Manhattan plaintiff alleges that on or about November 29, 2001 through December 13, 2001 he came under the medical care and treatment of MD, a physician specializing in the field of transplant surgery. On or about May 2001 through June 13, 2002, the plaintiff came under the care of MD2., a physician specializing in the field of internal medicine. He also came under the care of the defendant MD3, M.D. who holds himself out as a Long Island physician specializing in surgery. From about November 28, 2001 through December 13, 2001, the plaintiff came under the care of a Memorial Hospital located in Rochester, New York where he had his kidney donor surgery performed. The plaintiff claims, inter alia, that the defendants were negligent in his care and treatment in failing to properly perform a laparoscopic donor nephrectomy; prematurely discharging him after the surgery with a retroperitoneal hematoma; causing the pancreas injury and failure; causing an inflammatory nidus and pancreatic pseudocyst; in causing a pancreaticocolenic fistula; causing the plaintiff to undergo exploratory laporatomy and drainage of a large intra abdominal abscess and closure of a colonic fistula, and causing the plaintiff to undergo a colosotomy and colostomy take-down surgical procedure to the pancreas.
MD2 seeks an order granting summary judgment dismissing the complaint asserted against him on the basis that he did not depart from good and accepted medical practice during his care and treatment of the plaintiff and that the action is time barred as although the plaintiff saw MD2 on four occasions following his surgery, all MD2 did was order laboratory tests and CT scans and then refer the plaintiff for surgical management. MD2 claims his last involvement with the plaintiff was on January 2002 and the action was not commenced until September 2004.
MD3, who is represented by the same attorneys as MD2 seeks summary judgment dismissing the complaint on the basis that there were no departures by him that proximately caused the plaintiffs spinal injuries.

A complainant man, age 37, was admitted to a hospital
A complainant man, age 37, was admitted to a hospital, after having suffered a gunshot wound to his neck. He was treated by a general surgeon and a neurosurgeon. During the first few days of treatment, the Bronx general surgeon formed an opinion that the man would be a permanent paraplegic. The neurosurgeon was also of the opinion that the man's spinal column had suffered such severe damage and that eventual spasms in his extremities would be inevitable. However, the neurosurgeon noted in the hospital records that the man apparently had a sensation to his feet.
Subsequently, while the man was in an intensive care unit, nurses at the hospital placed him on a special bed used to allow immobilized patients to be rotated to a vertical position. The nurse who was responsible for checking out the bed failed to check on the position of an essential bolt, and as the bed was rotated the man fell. There was conflict in the testimony as to injuries caused by the fall. The man claimed that he struck his back on a chair, while the nurse testified that she caught the man prior to the time he struck to anything. After the incident, the man was examined by another physician, who noted that the patient had not sustained any injury when a section of the bed had almost fallen down. The man testified, however, that his pain intensified after the fall and that it was only after the fall that he had begun to suffer spasms. The man was discharged from the hospital and after which, he was a patient in various other Westchester hospitals. He undergone several operations, but he remains paralyzed.
A pathologist testified as an expert witness for the man. It was his opinion that the fall striking the mid portion of the man's back in the area through which the bullet had passed had caused some degree of neurological and spinal injury, which in turn caused additional injury to the wound site. Even if the pathologist could not assess any particular degree of aggravation caused to the already existing damage, he did testify that the man's fall from the bed injured him to some additional degree.

This complaint sets forth a first cause of an action sounding in negligence
This complaint sets forth a first cause of an action sounding in negligence arising out of the care and treatment rendered to plaintiff wherein she sustained second degree burns to her feet while bathing in a tub on October 10, 2004 while a resident at Siena Village, owned by the a health system of Long Island, Inc. and located at Smithtown, New York. The defendant, was an employee of the facility and the personal care aide for the plaintiff when the spinal injury occurred. The plaintiff resided at Siena Village where she received custodial care and housing. The second cause of action is premised upon the alleged negligent hiring of defendant employee by the defendant health System of Long Island, Inc.
In the answer submitted by defendant employee, a cross-claim has been asserted against the co-defendant health System of Long Island, Inc. for indemnification and/or contribution. In the answer submitted by the health system, a cross-claim has been asserted for judgment over against "Kenneth Doe" who is not named in the complaint, and a second cross-claim for indemnification from defendant employee.
According to the court, the common-law right to indemnification exists pursuant to a contract implied in law and is rooted in equity; it is a device to prevent unjust enrichment. Implied indemnity is frequently employed in favor of one who is vicariously liable for the tort of another, but the principle is not so limited and has been invoked in other contexts as well. Nonetheless, an indemnity cause of action can be sustained only if the third-party plaintiff and the third-party defendant have breached a duty to plaintiff and also if some duty to indemnify exists between them".

A man was working as a construction worker on June 24, 1983.
A man was working as a construction worker on June 24, 1983. He was on the tenth floor of a building. He lost his balance while at that height. He fell and hit a concrete floor below. He injured his head and he lost all sensation in both his arms. His Nassau-Suffolk employer paid him temporary total disability until March 15, 1984. After this, his employer paid him temporary partial disability benefits. The construction worker filed a claim for catastrophic loss benefits. When he recovered from the head injury, the construction worker still had no feeling in both his arms. He could not move his arms or do his customary work as a construction worker.
Two months after the accident the construction worker consulted a neurosurgeon. The neurosurgeon found that the reason for the numbness in his arms is that he had a spinal cord injury. The bones of his spine were compressing on his nerves causing the loss of sensation to his two arms. The neurosurgeon performed two surgeries in September and October 1983 to correct the compression. He removed the bone which was causing the compression on his spinal cord. He did not touch or repair the nerves, just the bone. After the surgeries, the man gained strength in his arms but three fingers on each hand still did not have any feeling. He was able to do simple and light chores at home but he was unable to continue with his work as a construction worker.
Four months after the surgery, the man was still experiencing pain, tingling, numbness and weakness in his fingers and hands. The neurosurgeon determined that these were not due to damage or compression to the nerves but were now only orthopedic in nature. He certified that the construction worker can go back to work but with limits. He cannot do any lifting, or do heavy construction work or work at elevations.
The 1978 case of a white-haired man arrived at the Circuit Court one morning
The 1978 case of a white-haired man arrived at the Circuit Court one morning. The man entered the courtroom to testify in his $1 million lawsuit he filed against Edward H. White II Memorial Hospital.
He filed the lawsuit because he fell out of bed while admitted in the facility. The 50-year-old man claimed that the hospital staff was negligent when they left the railing down on his hospital bed. When he fell, he suffered a spinal injury.
The hospital refuted those claims and said that the patient had raised such a ruckus about having it up that they lowered it – against hospital policy – in order to hopefully prevent another coronary episode in the gentleman.

Spinal Injuries Common in Nevada
As part of our search for spinal cord injury information, a source has learned that these types of injuries are fairly common in parts of Nevada. One of the local hospitals that treats an increasing number of spinal cord injuriesis at Renown Regional Medical Center, which is located in northern Nevada, and is the areas only trauma center that is comparable to a larger area hospital.
One of the reasons for the number of spinal cord injuries in this area is due to most of these injuries occurring due to skiing accidents and the local businesses do not want the negative publicity that a skiing accident can be so severe. With that being the case, the local news stations do not report the accidents. There are so many skiing related accidents that the doctors who perform spinal surgeries in this area, actually "handle more surgeries per ski lift than anywhere else in the world." There are reportedly about 60 to 80 spinal cord injuries a year in this area. This is a rather alarming claim by anyone's standards.
Not all of the injuries are related to skiing, however. At least one person required a spine operation following a snowmobile accident. Most of the spinal cord injuries in this area are snow-related. This would not happen in Long Island or Manhattan.

How do you think your team played for an opening night?
Gani Lawal put on 20 pounds in the off-season and went from about 212-213 pounds to about 233. Can you talk about how his game has changed?
Mo Miller had 17 points and let the offense come to him in the second half. Can you talk about some of the adjustments that he made both shooting and distributing the basketball?
Lance Storrs was 4-of-24 from three-point range all of last season. Tonight, he was 3-of-4. How much has he improved his game?
Is [Storrs] a significantly better player on both ends of the floor than a year ago and is it just a mental thing more than physical?
It's interesting to watch this group play. They're not as flexible as some of your past teams, yet you can still get into it and get some guys experience as evidenced tonight with eight guys seeing double-figure minutes.
"The roles are very well defined on this team. We need to bring along one or two more into the mix. I'd like to see Bassirou Dieng get involved more. He's come a long way and understands what we need him to do until Lewis [Clinch] can come back and be that ninth man.
How important of a stretch is this now? One game and now seven days off before you play Mercer next weekend. Is this a critical week coming up?
"It really is. Tomorrow, we are going to work on our press break offense. I didn't think we were ready for it tonight. I can't blame the kids though. We didn't do as much press offense preparation as I would have liked. Tomorrow, we will spend the whole day working on it. We will also work on some defensive things in terms of getting back and helping on a shooter.


Two things I love, together at last: wind power and green laser light. Naturally they've been united in the Netherlands, home to iconic windmills and free-thinking artists alike.
Dutch designers from Studio Roosegaarde recently unveiled artwork entitled "Windlicht" or "Windlight" on the Eneco wind farm in the coastal town of Sint-Annaland. Thin glowing green lights connect the rotating blades on several turbines. The effect is achieved through tracking software, cameras, and special LED lights, according to the studio.
The team drew inspiration from Kinderdijk, a village known for its windmill system built in 1740. Addressing NIMBY attitudes that persist around green energy, studio founder Daan Roosegaard also wanted to give wind power the allure it deserves, a press release explains.
One onlooker viewing the glowing installation told the studio it looked like "jumping rope with the wind." Another called it "Kinderdijk 2.0." Viewers can also tune into a local radio channel and hear more about the piece.
Studio Roosegaarde has created other eco-minded installations, including "SolaRoad" and the stunning "Waterlicht" virtual flood. This latest piece reminded me of "Nuage Vert," public art by Helen Evans and Heiko Hansen. The duo projected green laser light onto the cloud emitted by a Helsinki power plant in 2008, and reminded locals to unplug.
Like them, Roosegaarde succeeds in making the invisible visible, reconnecting residents with their landscape. Public art that illuminates overlooked aspects of our lives feels like a special treat to me. And lasers? They're the icing.

The Federal Government of Nigeria plans to set up cashew processing plants in four states. The Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development...
The FG's Cashew Processing Plants
By ACHANWAMBA April 01, 2019 0 comments
The Federal Government of Nigeria plans to set up cashew processing plants in four states.
The Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, Chief Audu Ogbeh has revealed the Federal Government's plan to establish cashew processing plants in four states. The minister said this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja. Ogbeh said that Nigeria is currently wasting an estimated 8 million tonnes of cashew fruits annually.
According to him, the establishment of the plants would reduce the waste of cashew fruits and delay in the export of raw nuts out of the country. The minister, however, mentioned Enugu, Benue, Kogi and Oyo States as the four states where the cashew processing plants would be set up. That is what the Cashew Association of West Africa told me, in Nigeria alone, that we waste eight million tonnes'', Ogbeh said.
"The challenge is usually access to credit because a good processing cashew line will cost you about two million dollars to do something like 10 to 20 tonnes a day. We are targeting that to set up at least one plant each in Enugu and Benue, two plants each in Kogi and Oyo state, these are the leading cashew producers now.
"We want to assure the cashew stakeholders that in our next level activities, we intend to stop the export of raw nuts and to process all our cashews here and we hope by the grace of God, to have one or two plants ready before next year.
"We are talking with the Brazilians now. We want to bring in machines from Brazil to process the cashew fruits into juice which has a high content of Vitamin C."
He said, "We have to find unorthodox ways of finding capital for those who want to grow these industries because on their own, it is impossible for them to meet the conditions of banks and financial institutions."
"It is very good for the health because we are currently wasting an estimated eight million tonnes of cashew fruits annually, throwing them away," he said.
Ogbeh also promised to sit down with cashew producers and farmers association later in the year to have a discussion with the CBN and get some help.
"It is impossible for them to raise the necessary capital which is why the CBN initiatives are very important to us and we have been working with them and we are achieving results.
"If not, we will remain perpetually poor and we will remain permanently incapable of creating wealth and creating jobs for our people''.
"The treasury of Nigeria including the CBN has to find a way to by-pass the obstacles, the mountains, the rivers, blocking our way to industrial growth.

alegare@stargazette.com | @SGAndrewLegare
Corning-Painted Post High School senior Bailey Basham has signed a National Letter of Intent to continue her diving career at Division I Marshall University in Huntington, West Virginia.
Basham's signing took place Monday during a ceremony at the high school's cafeteria.
Basham placed fourth in the Section 4 Class A championships in the fall and went on to place 18th at the New York State Public High School Athletic Association championship meet. Her season also included a first-place finish at the Jack Mathers Invitational with a score of 478.65.

She plans to compete on the 1-meter, 3-meter and 10-meter boards at Marshall. Basham, daughter of Heidi and Anthony Lane Basham, plans to major in business management, with a minor in psychology.
"I can't believe how far I've come in such a short amount of time," Basham said in a press release from her high school. "I want to thank all my coaches and my family for giving me so many great opportunities these past four years. I wouldn't be where I am or who I am without all of you."
Notre Dame 18, O-M 2: Courteney Crater collected three hits, including a home run, as Elmira Notre Dame cruised to a victory over Odessa-Montour in Interscholastic Athletic Conference softball Monday.
The Crusaders scored in all but one inning and collected 14 hits in the contest, which was called after six innings because of the 15-run rule. Maura Glovins added three hits for defending Class C state champion Notre Dame, which improved to 9-0.
Edison 11, Tioga 0: Bella Willsey tossed a four-hitter Monday to help Thomas A. Edison remain unbeaten with an IAC road victory over Tioga.
Willsey struck out 11 as the Spartans improved to 6-0.
Edison scored three runs in the third inning to break a scoreless tie. The Spartans added four runs in both the four and fifth innings.

LONDON — Burt Kwouk, who played Inspector Clouseau's manservant Cato Fong in Blake Edwards' "Pink Panther" movies, has died at the age of 85.
Kwouk featured in seven "Pink Panther" pics, starting with 1964's "A Shot in the Dark" through to "Curse of the Pink Panther" in 1983. He played Cato, which was initially spelled Kato, a martial arts specialist who regularly attacked Clouseau, played by Peter Sellers, to keep him alert.
Other movie appearances included James Bond films "Goldfinger" and "You Only Live Twice," as well as Fred Schepisi's "Plenty," Steven Spielberg's "Empire of the Sun" and Roger Spottiswoode's "Air America."
TV series credits included "The Avengers," "The Saint," "Doctor Who," "Hart to Hart" and "Tenko," in which he played Major Yamauchi. One of his last dramatic roles was in BBC sitcom "Last of the Summer Wine," in which he played Entwistle from 2002 to 2010.
Kwouk received an award from Prince Charles, the Order of the British Empire, for services to drama in 2011.
A statement from his agent said: "Beloved actor Burt Kwouk has sadly passed peacefully away 24th May. The family will be having a private funeral but there will be a memorial at a later date."

McPhatter, Mary (Née McNabb)
"The Storm of Thursday ─ A Woman Killed in Puslinch"
The most painful incident in connection with the thunderstorm is that of Mrs. John Henderson McPhatter, of the Gore of Puslinch, who was killed by lightening at her own house between 3 and 4 o'clock on Thursday afternoon, September 1st, 1881.
The particulars, gleaned from William Dunn of this city (Guelph), who was in the house at the time of the occurrence, are as follows: Mrs. McPhatter had been busily employed knitting a house mat, but the darkness occasioned by the storm, became so intense that she could not see to do her work and set it aside, seating herself in a rocking chair, near the chimney and close to the wall of the house. A lively conversation was kept up on various topics between Mr. and Mrs. McPhatter and Mr. Dunn, the latter being about four feet apart from Mrs. McPhatter. Suddenly a shock was felt which rendered Mr. Dunn and Mr. McPhatter insensible for a moment. On recovering from the shock, they found Mrs. McPhatter sitting, as appeared, insensible. Mr. Dunn, assisted by Mr. McPhatter carried her outside, poured cold water over her and used every restorative in their power to bring her back to consciousness, but without effect. Then the melancholy fact dawned on their minds that she was dead.
The grief of her husband was heartrending and it was some time before he was convinced that she was no more. The electric fluid had entered about her head and passed down one side to her foot. There were no marks left on her body. Her boot was torn off her foot and this was the only perceptible evidence of the calamity. It appears that the lightening had come through the chimney, entirely demolishing it in its passage, destroying the floor on the upper part of the house and tearing the plaster off the side of the wall on which the unfortunate woman was sitting. Two dogs, which were lying sleeping on the floor near Mrs. McPhatter, were also struck and never moved afterwards, but lay as if still asleep.
Mrs. McPhatter was about 24 years of age. She had only been married about a year and a half. She leaves no family of her own to mourn her loss. Mary (McNabb) McPhatter came from Kinloss Township, Bruce County, prior to her marriage.

Fred Albers, Mark Carnevale, Carl Paulson and Bill Rosinski will be on the Ocean Course as roving reporters, following key playing groups during the Championship. SiriusXM's Jason Sobel and Taylor Zarzour will conduct post-round interviews with players.
"The Ocean Course is one of the most spectacular venues in golf, and as the best players in the world meet there to compete for this year's PGA Championship we look forward to delivering our listeners comprehensive coverage throughout the week," said Scott Greenstein, SiriusXM's President and Chief Content Officer. "Our play-by-play will allow fans to follow all the key groups and moments, while getting exceptional insight from our broadcast team on the field and the course itself – before, during and after the Championship."
PGA Championship Week programming on SiriusXM will also feature comprehensive pre- and post-round coverage, as well as specials airing throughout the week.
On Thursday and Friday, SiriusXM's pre-round coverage will be hosted by David Marr III and former tour pros Mark Lye and Dennis Paulson from 8:00 to 10:00 am ET. They will be followed by Drew Stoltz, Gary McCord and Jason Sobel hosting from 10:00 am to 1:00 pm ET.

Validating an XML file against a schema is essential to have control over the way the elements are arranged in the XML file. PHP has functions to perform this task. You can use the schemaValidate function to validate the XML file against a schema. This functions take the schema filename as a parameter.
The code to validate the XML file against the schema is given below.
In the above code we are creating a DOMDocument first and loading the xml file into that DOMDocument object. Then we use the schemaValidate function to validate that document in the DOMDocument object. We use the if condition to print out the result of the validation. We use two variables called the $xmlfile and $xmlschema to store the values of the path to the XML file and the Schema file.

B³ Post-Game Recap 3/13: Lincoln 2, Fargo 3
This is going to be a very brief recap. I didn't get to listen to the game on the radio, or watch it on B2, so I don't have a lot to add. If anyone out there has more information about this game, please feel free to comment below. Thanks.
The Lincoln Stars lost another heartbreaker last night, falling 3-2 to the Fargo Force. Like Friday night, the Force (oh yeah?) got out to a very quick start Saturday night when Force forward Garrett Allen scored 42 seconds into the game to give Fargo the early 1-0 lead. That score held up until the second period when Lincoln rallied with two goals, the first scored by Stars defenseman Austin Handley, and the second by forward Sam Alfieri. Surprisingly, the Stars held a 2-1 lead going into the third period against the Force. However, in the third it was all Fargo. The Force outshot the Stars 13-6 in the final stanza, and outscored the Stars 2-0 in the final period to win their 34th game of the season. Force forward Colten St. Clair scored the game winner for Forgo with only 1:42 remaining in the third period. The Force outshot the Stars 30-20 in the game. Stars goaltender Jared Coreau stopped 27 of 30 shots in the loss.
Well, despite the loss Saturday night, I think the Stars should be very happy with how they played this weekend against a very good Fargo team. It was a bare bones roster Saturday night as Lincoln was without forward John McCarron (shoulder injury) and defenseman Cory Hibbeler (unknown). Add in Josh Berge and Brent Tate being out of the lineup with their injuries, and you can see that the Stars were shorthanded big time this weekend. But like I said yesterday, the players battled all weekend long and gave Fargo all they could handle. They should be very proud of their effort, considering they were playing on the road with a very short bench against a quality hockey club.
The Stars return to the IceBox this Wednesday night for a St. Patrick's Day game against the Des Moines Buccaneers. Call 474-STAR ext.1 to get your tickets. There will be $1 green beer from 6:00pm-7:00pm, so wear green, arrive early, and take part in all of the IceBox shenanigans.

Thanks as always for the recap and coverage. Any word yet as to why Hibbeler was not in the lineup?
It would be nice to know exactly what is going on with Reid and Rayner. Both Mike Melbye and Coach McGroarty danced around the subject this weekend. Brent Wagner of the LJS has done a terrible job this season keeping us up to date with what goes on with the team. Not sure why, because last season I thought he did a good job. This season Wagner has been MIA and his blog is a ghost town. Thank you Yeti for all that you do. Without your blog we all would be in the dark. You don't get paid for what you do but you provide all of us with great info. The Stars organization should thank you!

Wish I could add something to the recap, but those of us who have to listen to the game through the internet had no broadcast for the 2nd & 3rd periods. The folks with access to am radio kept us posted, but not the same as being able to actually hear the game. Anyway, thanks Yeti & Layla for running the chats this weekend!
As I told you before Jimmy is playing the cover my ass game by sending Reid and Rayner home as there is no other justification for this. Hibbeler will probably be next as it looks like Jimmy will continue to try and save his job. The coaching staff has lost the respect of the players which can happen at any level and is why Mr. Pflug needs to grow a set and stop further damage to this great team and its fans
USHLProspectsBlog said...
After a well played weekend by the boys, a Negative Nancy has to come in a ruin the spirits. Let's celebrate the successful weekend and leave the coach talk until the end of the season which is the earliest time a decision will be made on Jimmy's future.
What did Reid and Rayner do that was so bad. Does this all stem from Reid being the third man in and then Rayner challenging another. Now the rumors have Hibbler being off the team? What is going on with this team? Is the coach ending the season as he started by trading/cutting all of his best talent. I'm still upset over the Jimmy Siers deal. Lets not forget, while we do all this belly aching, to say thanks to the players for giving us their best. For the players leaving, I hope Lincoln was a positive experience. I don't see how it could be, but a guy can always hope.
Long time fan
Mr USHL Prospecting man or girl @ 6:36 you go ahead and explain all the positive stuff to the boys who are out and on the their way home but good on you to keep your spirits high through the rose colored glasses you must be wearing
lincolnfan said...
all in all, i thought it was a great weekend. quite honestly, i expected Fargo to win by at least a couple of goals both nights, but Lincoln managed to pull out a shootout win on Friday and made Fargo work hard for the win on Saturday. i wouldn't fault Brent Wagner for not providing good coverage of the Stars.. if it was up to him, we would still have the same blog as last year. JournalStar.com did that stupid upgrade over the summer, and the old blog got lost.. they had to make the new one which isn't near as user friendly and requires some complicated registration. thanks to Yeti and BellTolls, we have a place to talk about the Stars, and also get great coverage of the team. :-)
To Mr. or Mrs. anonymous @8:34, who must be too scared or something to put a name down instead of anonymous, I am of the male sex if you wanted know, I do not wear glasses of any color, especially not rose. If you want to sit around and bash the coach, be my guest, but if it hasn't done anything yet, it won't do anything now. You can sit around here and complain as an anonymous blogger, or you can go to Stars management and complain to them, where you would have to put a name to yourself.
Yeti,
Rayner is still on the team but was serving a suspension this last weekend-not sure what for. Don't quite understand why Melby would say otherwise.
To USHL ProspectsBlog my name is NHL ProspectsBlog so you can feel better knowing who I am. My opinion is as valid as yours thus we have vehicles such as Blogs to express them. I am a paying fan watching a salaried Coach ruining our teams overall play and maybe even ruining some of these young players futures.(in my opinion)If you are happy to turn a blind eye good for you on all the power to you. I believe there are many fans that have had enough of the present situation and here at Lincoln we are a hockey smart fan base.

Rayner was suspended for his penalty box problem a few weeks ago. Don't know what Hibbs did to join the doghouse. I thought the boys played well this weekend despite their internal issues.
what is this penalty box problem??? I am hearing it a lot but know one wants to let everyone else in. If someone knows please post.
Rayner and a penalty box problem? I must have missed something. All I know is a bizarre year keeps getting stranger by the day.
Anyone else anxious to see the special jerseys for the auction this coming Saturday night?
You said it Nutz4puckz "it gets stranger by the day" Coach has no control over this teams this year that's all I can say. And how does a coach not have control of his team? he lets some get by with crap and then the others think he got by with that so I'll try this and it just snowballs after a while. Maybe the owners finally are cracking down on coach for some of the off ice crap that has been going on and sounds like on ice problem. He should have cracked down long ago and maybe we would be in the playoffs.
Just bring on the special jerseys can't wait Corey always does a great job.
Any yes I'm just another anonymous.
Yes the season gets stranger every weekend, players getting booted from the team suspended,etc. And maybe the owners are putting pressure on the coachs but I need to say this, these coachs have lost all respect of the players or at least most of them, fans that know what is going on have lost respect and this all could have been advoided if the coachs would have not covered up all the season long dirt and sweep it under the rug so as to try and keep everything a big secret. The coachs have cut their own throat and now they are trying to stop the loss of respect bleeding.
There are players on this team that should have been booted by mid season and sent packing. But that didn't happen. Those golden players are still with us. YUK!
There are fans out there that know what has been sweep under the rugs by the coachs and it plain turns my stomach sour, but all will surface when the season finally ends.
If these coachs do learn by their mistakes and god I hope they do. They better right this sinking ship of support of current day coaching.
Season ticket sales is just around the corner and our ticket manager has her hands full. And it's not her fault.
Those of you that don't know what's going on keep up the positive outlook, clouds are on the way.
Just wanted to drop a note and say that we had the chance to make it up to Fargo this past weekend and saw a great hockey game. Stars fans should be extremely proud of the effort and how the team played this past weekend and regardless of what has and has not happened with off-ice stuff, I think fans should know that the players that are on the ice are still putting forth a great effort and giving fans their monies worth. We had a number of Fargo fans (all of whom were extremely friendly and fun to hang out with) say a lot of positive and complimentary things about the players and the team. You should be proud. Also, I would strongly encourage Stars fans to make a trip to Fargo - it's well worth it. They have a great arena (except avoid the weekend Bon Jovi is in town - tough (and expensive) to find a hotel!)
Just a side note and not sure if anyone has heard this but it sounds like Jake Newton is close to signing a contract with the Anaheim Ducks!
That's great news about Newton. Lets get another Star in the NHL!!
Luck of the Irish said...
So what happens if there are not enough players left on the team come Wednesday-do we get to drink $1 green beers all night since the puck will not drop.
How long do you give Stars management before they ask you about the blog? You and BT do a good job of trying to be Switzerland through this but I know they don't like reading the truth. I think they will try to get to you before the other shoe drops.
Yeti said...
Jofa,
I'm just providing a forum for Lincoln fans. I run my mouth enough around here, so I let the fans say what they want (within reason). What's the truth, what's fiction...I have no idea. I'm just a fan. I'm not a housing parent. I'm not a player parent. I don't know any of the players or coaches personally. I'm not in the locker room, I'm not at practice, I'm not on the team bus during road trips. I have no clue what's going on behind closed doors, nor do I want to know. I don't pretend to be any kind of expert on the Stars. BT and I are hockey fans, that's it. We watch the games, and give our opinions.
I hope the Stars management isn't upset about this blog. I don't know why they would be. Again, I'm just providing a spot for Lincoln fans to interact with each other. I love the Stars. There's no place I'd rather be on a Friday or Saturday night than the IceBox watching the best team in the USHL. That's why I created this blog.
Jofa...if you don't mind, send me an email when you can: lincolnstarshockey@gmail.com

ok so the next big question to be answered?????

time to lighten up all.. there is most likely no big issues or the next big bomb shell to drop. we just need to go out and have some fun and let these guys have fun as well.
p.s i heard that yeti knows whos jersey is going to go for the most money and who's going to get it!!! hmmmmmmm
My money at the auction would be on #19 or #27.
I can't wait to see them!!
I spoke with Will Rayner tonight, and I can tell you all from the horse's mouth that he has not been removed from the team...I can't speak for Reid, but Rayner is still 100% with the team...

I would say that shines jersey will also go pretty high... hopefully people will still come out and bid on these jerseys even tho the sseason hasn't gone as planned.
all this coach talk is getting outta control. do any of u remeber last season?? we had player suspensions that know one knew why. sado was sent home for awhile and lost is A was coach stopping the bleeding then?? no he was just helping a kid grow. some of these kids just arent mature enough off the ice. so 2 the fan sitting in the stands he might look like a good kid but off the ice hes a cancer. there are things that happen in the locker room that no one else knows about and it will always b that way. everything that could go wrong has gone wrong this year. coach hasnt had the players here and healthy 2 run a good program. hes not the one on the ice firing shots over the net, not making break out passes, not putting break away passes on the tape. hes just had to deal with the cards hes been givin. so everyone step back, if all this happens agian next year u have a piont but dont forgit this coaching staff was a piont away from the anderson cup last year.

I wonder if the organization got slapped with a hefty fine for the fight at the end of the Chicago game. I know the league has fined the team in the past for similar altercations (omaha in the playoffs two years ago,ie) If so, maybe the punishments against Rayner and Reid were directed by management since they were handed down a few days after the league doled out its suspensions. I know the team doesn't like paying these fines at all and maybe they told Jimmy that enough is enough with this and something needs to be done. This is all speculation on my part. I am just trying to piece things together and not spread rumors.
Anonymous 11:33, Well said, I couldn't agree more. Others want us to believe they have "inside" information and know what's going on in the locker room, yeah right. Thanks Yeti, for a great blog.
Anonymous 11:08 - who said anything about what goes on in the locker room. I'm talking about what extra activities go on outside the rink and what went on in the penalty box. You know people outside the hockey world live in this town also, talk gets around.
11:33 -- Close, but you have no idea what has been happening this year. How many players have been sent home this year? Any idea? How many "team" suspensions, not "league" suspensions have been made public? Players have gotten away with things that have just been hushed up by the coachs and players and the general public don't have a clue what's going on. So, 11:08 I know what you don't.
Fly on the ceiling.
I wish the Stars Management would work on getting Cold Bud to the Ice Box!
Cold Bud
Anony 11:54...for those of us who are parents with a son/player on the team, your inferences and comments made without substantiating them are very disconcerting and alarming and certainly makes a parent feel like they are not in the know. We can only trust what we are told by our son (which is very little to nothing) and certainly will not call the coach or management to confirm/deny rumors and accusations that are made on a message board; however, I feel that if you are not in a position or comfortable divulging complete and/or accurate information, that maybe it would be best to refrain from alluding to things that cannot be confirmed or denied and ends up feeding the rumor mill and causes further ill will. This is getting ridiculous!
AMEN to that!! Miller must have one heck of a contract with the Stars! As for the parent above it must be extermely tough to send your kid to a place this far away and trust that they will be taken care of properly. I know a lot of the housing parents and the kids are in great hands off the ice. I also understand that part of being a part of the team means leaving what happens at the rink at the rink. That being said there seem to be fewer kids this year with off ice jobs. Granted that may be because of the economy but in past years they were given things to do at the ice box instead of sleeping til noon every day. That seemed to cure a lot of off ice problems. Hard to party when you have to get up early to work. It just seems like the coaches have let a lot of stuff go this year that didn't fly in the past. We are all thankful that you have allowed your son to play for the Stars and nobody here faults the kids. They play their hearts out and they are all great kids. As Stars fans we're just not used to losing when we seem to have the talent to be in the playoff hunt at least.
I know I shouldn't feed the rumor mill but what is this penalty box talk referring to? And FYI I was also very disgruntled about the Siers trade, but STOKED about his scholarship!
To 11:54, You know what I don't? I stand by my original statement; Yeah, right.
Anon 11:54-
Please enlighten us, how many players have been sent home this year? Because from what I can tell the only player who has been rumored to have been sent home is Reid. Baumbick was traded to Wichita falls and apparently he refused to report, Clement was traded to Omaha and he refused to report. Neither player was "Sent home" they made a decision that impacted their hockey careers. Siers, Chartier, Brockett, Gerth, Puskar etc were traded and are either currently playing in the USHL or decided to play hockey elsewhere after being traded to another USHL team, and as for all the other players who have worn Stars jersey's they were emergency call ups and as far as I know are back with their respective teams. If you have any other information please post with a link or some way of confirming that they are no longer with their team.
I have received more information (anon comments) about this penalty box "incident," but I really don't believe this blog is the place to be talking about it. Personally, I think it would be tacky to discuss the specifics here. I believe this is something better left alone. The coaches have dealt with it. Let's leave it at that. No sense in piling on. Thank you.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to email me at: lincolnstarshockey@gmail.com
ahhhh yes, a blog to discuss 'all things Stars' as long as you don't attack a player or other poster.... or Yeti doesn't want to dwell on it.
That's not what I said. If you like, you can email me and discuss this further. It's up to you.

I do believe that if you have the right intel about you're enemy you'll have more resources to fight efficiently against it.
This time the intel I wanted to gather and inform you about it's from stress and how it's linked to depression, in that way we can discover its weak points to leverage them and finally become free from both.
According to medicinenet.com in a medical perspective, stress is "a physical, mental, or emotional factor that causes bodily or mental tension and can cause the flight-or-fight response in us." And according to Dr. Hans Selye in The Nature of Stress, not all stress is bad for you but depends more on how you perceive any "stressful" situation.
Stress can be caused by information overload, lack of control in a situation, having too many choices, lack of sleep, social isolation, crisis, catastrophes, fear, etc. The less control we perceive we have over our lives, the easier stress dominate us.
When we are experiencing stress very often, we become proclive of making decisions in the short term.
Everything that we perceive as a threat can affect our biology and everybody has a different level of tolerance of stress, once it's exceeded, we begin to break down and what we usually believed and liked can become meaningless to us.
This means that stress increases our suggestibility.
Now, the more in control we believe we are, the more protected we are against its negative effects. In fact, studies have shown that people who perceive themselves as being in control have more commitment to family, work and to being healthy, are less likely to have problems regarding stress.
In one side, a mental illness (depression and anxiety disorders in this case) make us perceive everything as worse or even as a kind of threat toward us, at least ten times stronger of what really is.
On the other side, having stress over our bearable limits for a long period of time will end up in us catching some kind of mental illness. This explains why army veterans can suffer the consequences of being at war, they easily develop PTSD.
Being under the influence of depression will make you see everything as a threat, which means you don't have control over something and lastly will get more stressed and worn out, you'll need a lot more energy to do any simple daily task, like brushing your teeth.
I believe this a simple explanation for the link between depression and stress and it's the key for beginning to understand how we can fight it.
And How We Fight It?
Then, how we do it? How knowing this can help us in fighting stress and depression?
So far we know that by feeling we are in control, we will be able to resist the negative effects of stress. We have to learn how to manage our threats so we don't feel overwhelmed when they make their apparition.
What we need to do it's to change the perception of threats to challenges. In this way what we are doing is taking back the power of something dangerous to us, by thinking this is something I'll overcome, this is just one of the many challenges that will come in my life!
That way there's no reason to feel overwhelmed by the stress because we're responding in a more positive way, focusing on what we can control rather than on what we cannot.
If there's not anything we can do to change something we cannot control, then why bother with being too worried and overwhelmed?
It sounds simple but the real answer is, (and I know we have probably heard it a thousand times now) with a positive attitude you can overcome everything that comes in your life!
Mental illnesses (like depression), chemical substances (like drugs), physical and emotional pain can alter our biochemical mechanism (mind) to understand and interpret in a bad way what we perceive with our senses leading us to a state of anger, stress, and fear.
Because we cannot rely on our senses and perception under the influence of depression, we need to seek help, and therapy it's always the best recommendation.
Now to conclude on stress, it seems that it is neither bad nor good in its nature. But depends more on the situation and the perception (or interpretation if you prefer) of a "stressful" situation.
If we can control our attitude towards everything life throw us, nothing will have a major negative effect on us, we will become stress-proof.
We must deal with stress every day. We need challenges and learn how to overcome them so we can become in the best of what we can be!
Very good advice. At the very worst points one is unable to do anything but crawl under a stone but at more normal times you are right- change your attitude to everything around you. Act as if we can change our lives and our personality even if we can not. Perhaps the biggest danger is self medication – alcohol, recreational drugs. I do think that if a medically prescribed drug alleviates the pain it should be welcomed with open arms however!
The problem I do have with antidepressant drugs (and pill cocktails) is that they create a dependency on them and in the long run, you'll find is not a cure but the appeasement of the symptoms.

DWP chaos as a major row erupts with the SNP
Steve Topple
A row has erupted between the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) and the SNP. It's over Universal Credit. MPs, MSPs, and AMs are weighing in on the issue with one SNP politician accusing the department of either having "no idea how the system in Scotland works or… being totally disingenuous".
The DWP: a storm is brewing
As The Canary previously reported, if Universal Credit claimants want a member of the devolved parliaments (MSPs, AMs and MLAs) to support them in dealing with the DWP, red tape is getting in the way.
Claimants must give the DWP "explicit consent" before an MSP, AM or MLA can act on their behalf. That means the claimant has to officially tell the department they give permission for someone to support them.
As I previously wrote, DWP guidelines state claimants have to do the following to satisfy explicit consent:
"Give [the DWP] consent for their personal information to be disclosed".
Say "what information they want to be disclosed".
Also tell the DWP "why" the information is needed.
Give "the name of the representative and the organisation".
This is the opposite to the rules for MPs. In their case, claimants are subject to "implicit consent". In other words, the DWP assumes the claimant has given it permission to share some of their personal data.
The DWP says that it follows the guidelines for explicit consent. But SNP MSP Linda Fabiani claims that's not the reality. She says that the DWP asks for more information than that. Fabiani previously told The Canary:
It's ridiculous that barriers are put in the way of elected representatives trying to help.
Pressure is mounting on the government to 'do the right thing' and keep the Universal Credit uplift
This Martin Luther King Jr. Day, let's not whitewash what he stood for
Questions in parliament
Since The Canary first reported on this, parliamentary under-secretary at the DWP Will Quince has issued a statement in response to a written question by Labour MP Mike Amesbury.
Amesbury asked:
how many Universal Credit claimants have signed a waiver outlining any previous communication with a political representative regarding benefits before accessing appeals information since that policy was introduced.
Quince claimed:
At no point during a Universal Credit claim does the Department ask a person to sign a waiver. To safeguard the sensitive and personal data we hold about people's Universal Credit claims, we ask representatives making enquiries on behalf of others to demonstrate that they have claimant consent. This is a simple process, which can be completed online or by telephone by the claimant, and has been in place since 2017.
This is also what the DWP previously said.
Amesbury told The Canary:
In the Minister's response to my question, he stated that the Department asks representatives to make enquiries on behalf of others to demonstrate that they have claimant consent.
It is important that MPs are able to advocate for all constituents, any barriers or unnecessary bureaucracy must be removed. I hope that the social security advisory committee looks at this again and the Secretary of State makes changes.
The letters begin
But Fabiani has now gone further. She claims the DWP rhetoric isn't the reality on the ground, and that Jobcentres aren't sticking to the rules. Fabiani has now revealed the extent of what is happening. She has written to Work and Pensions secretary Therese Coffey.
You can read her full letter below:
But, as she outlines in the letter, it seems that what the DWP says should be happening, isn't:
During a recent conversation with Jobcentre Plus staff, however, we were informed that the standard Mandate Form we have provided, and used since issue of your department's written guidance, was no longer adequate to allow Jobcentre Plus to respond to an enquiry we had submitted regarding a constituent's Universal Credit claim.
We were informed that in addition to the standard information the Mandate Form must now be on headed paper, stating the following information:
Client consent for personal information to be disclosed
Information they want to be disclosed
Why the information is required
Name of representative and organisation, including branch where applicable – if the claimant cannot provide the name of the representative, then to be as specific as possible, for example the representative's job role or team name within the organisation
Why the elected representative has been contacted rather than Jobcentre Plus
"Confusing and disastrous"
This is contrary to what the DWP previously told The Canary. It is also not what Quince said in his written statement.
Fabiani told The Canary:
The operation of Universal Credit has been confusing and disastrous since the start; obviously rushed out before being properly tested. The fact that so many appeals are successful proves that point.
This is so distressing for claimants: sanctions applied with no discretion for mitigating circumstances, delays in payments and confusion on entitlements.
What's needed is a proper review and clarity for claimants, DWP front line staff, and representatives such as Citizens Advice and MSPs.
The row grows
But the DWP is denying Fabiani's account of the situation. It told The Canary:
We have no record of Linda Fabiani or her staff contacting East Kilbride Jobcentre since July 2018.
The team at East Kilbride have a good working relationship with Ms Fabiani and if she contacts the Jobcentre about one of her constituents then staff would do their upmost to help, provided that she is able to demonstrate consent from the claimant. This is a simple process and can be done over the phone, in person or through the claimant's Universal Credit online journal.
The Canary put the department's claims to Fabiani. She hit back, saying:
This is a ridiculous statement from DWP London – either they have no idea how the system in Scotland works or they are being totally disingenuous.
There is a central line for MSP enquiries – the Scotland Complaints' Resolution Team – and that's who we call. As instructed by DWP themselves, we do not go direct to any Jobcentre.
If DWP/Jobcentre Plus staff here in Scotland are receiving conflicting information from DWP centrally then this must be sorted so that claimants get the help that they need. We have always found the DWP staff in the team as helpful as they can be, and I sincerely hope that they are not going to be blamed in any way for the incompetence of the Universal Credit debacle.
Moreover, if Fabiani's account of the situation is happening in Scotland, it could well be happening in other nations, too.
Leanne Wood says…
Welsh AM for Rhonnda and Plaid Cymru's shadow minister for justice and equalities Leanne Wood told The Canary:
It seems there is a lot of confusion about what elected politicians representing the devolved parliaments in the UK can and can't do when it comes to supporting constituents on Universal Credit.
In many ways this confusion is symptomatic of how the welfare system has been run under the Tories; beset with incompetence and callousness. While the confusion between the Tory Government and the DWP continues, in the real world many people are struggling to make ends meet because of the botched Universal Credit system. It is pushing adults and children into abject poverty.
With Universal Credit yet to be rolled out to the whole of Wales, we are expecting the situation to get worse. People in Wales need AMs on their side and able to fight for them without having to jump through numerous bureaucratic hoops.
Wilfully misleading?
It's unclear exactly what's going on here. On the one hand, there are Fabiani's adamant claims that the DWP is not following its own rules. Then on the other, there's the DWP's categorical denial of Fabiani's claims.
But what is clear is that the DWP is in chaos over this. Moreover, it seems the DWP is essentially accusing Fabiani of lying. Or, as she says, it has no idea how the Scottish system works.
There are only two logical conclusions. One is that the DWP has no idea what its doing over this issue and confusion is rife. The other is that the department is now wilfully misleading politicians and the public. But this mess only has one group of losers: the claimants caught up in the political chaos.

Free trade agreement 'very difficult if UK does not comply with EU standards'
One academic is so sick of BBC bias, he's taking legal action


The news that Hamid Kehazaei, a 24-year-old Iranian asylum seeker detained on Manus Island, has been diagnosed as brain dead following his transfer to the Mater Hospital in Brisbane is a tragedy. That it is a tragedy for this young man and his family is unquestionable – but the extent of this tragedy may be much more pervasive than we realise.
If the emerging details of his case are correct, Kehazaei developed septicaemia as a complication of cellulitis (skin and soft-tissue infection) arising from a cut in his foot. This, in itself, is disturbing.
Severe infection can result in brain death – either from infection of the brain itself (meningitis, encephalitis or brain abscess), or from brain injury due to a lack of oxygen resulting from cardiac arrest (as appears to be the case here), or from reduced blood supply to the brain. Yet it is very uncommon, especially in a young, previously healthy man.
Such a case could occur in Australia and has been described in 2012 in young Indigenous adults in Central Australia. Nevertheless, severe sepsis resulting from a foot infection is preventable. And a case like this occurring in an Australian national would raise serious questions about the appropriateness of the antibiotics used and the timeliness of care.
Most cases of brain death result from traumatic brain injury, stroke or lack of oxygen to the brain following asphyxia, near-drowning, or prolonged cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
What happened to Hamid Kehazaei raises concerns about the adequacy of care provided to him during initial treatment, including wound care and antibiotics, and how soon he was transferred to expert medical care, first to Port Moresby and subsequently to Brisbane.
If this young man became ill and had his brain die while seeking asylum in Australia and while in our care, then we must examine the details of his case and ask ourselves not only whether it was preventable but whether our policies and processes actually contributed to his death.
But how can we even begin to ask these types of questions when we know so little about the circumstances in which he became ill, and his subsequent care?

Q: Why don't my nested directives work when the markup is in a single file? I've been looking at isolateScope directives, to get a better understanding of how they interact with other nested isolateScope directives, so put together a plnkr to test a few things out.
http://plnkr.co/edit/7Tl7GbWIovDSmVeKKN26?p=preview
This worked as expected. As you can see each directive has it's own separate template.
I then decided to move the html out of each directive and into the main html file, but it's stopped working? I can see that the e1Ctrl is on the scope of the directive, but it doesn't appear to be available when the enclosed markup is processed.
http://plnkr.co/edit/33Zz1oO4q7BVFw0cMvYa?p=preview
Can someone please tell me why this is happening?
----------- UPDATE -----------
I've simplified the non-working plunker to clearly show the problem. The directive uses the controllerAs syntax and the e1Ctrl is clearly set on its $scope (see the console output).
http://plnkr.co/edit/g2U2XskJDwWKuK3gqips?p=preview
angular
  .module('app', [])
  .controller('AppCtrl', AppCtrl)
  .directive('elementOne', elementOne)
  .controller('E1Ctrl', E1Ctrl)

function AppCtrl() {

  var vm = this;

  vm.data = [
  {
    label: 'one'
  },
  {
    label: 'two'
  },
  {
    label: 'three'
  },
  {
    label: 'four'
  }
  ];

  vm.callback = function() {
    console.log('called app callback');
  };
}

function elementOne() {
  return {
    restrict: 'E',
    scope: {
      data: '=',
      handler: '&'
    },
    controller: 'E1Ctrl',
    controllerAs: 'e1Ctrl',
    bindToController: true
  }
}

function E1Ctrl($scope) {
  console.log('E1Ctrl', $scope);
  var vm = this;

  vm.click = function() {
    vm.handler();
  };

  vm.callback = function() {
    console.log('called e1 callback');
  };
}

Mark up:

      <element-one data='item' handler='appCtrl.callback()'>
        <button ng-click='e1Ctrl.click()'>e1: {{e1Ctrl.data.label}}</button>
      </element-one>

------ Transclusion solution -----
http://plnkr.co/edit/l3YvnKOYoNANteNXqRrA?p=preview
function elementOne() {
  return {
    restrict: 'E',
    transclude: true,
    scope: {
      data: '=',
      handler: '&'
    },
    controller: 'E1Ctrl',
    link: function($scope, $element, $attr, ctrl, transclude) {

      transclude($scope, function(clone){
        $element.append(clone);
      });
    }
  }
}

A: There's a difference in scope for HTML in the template of the directive and HTML that in a subtree of the directive. The former is evaluated in the context of the scope of the directive; the latter - in the scope of the View.
If the directive has an isolate scope - scope: {}, then the subtree doesn't see it. If it uses scope: true, then it creates a new child scope for the subtree which prototypically inherits from the View's scope.
Consider the following:
// isolate scope
app.directive("foo", function(){
  return {
    scope: {},
    link: function(scope){
      scope.name = "foo";
    }
  }
});

// child scope
app.directive("bar", function(){
  return {
    scope: true,
    link: function(scope){
      scope.name = "bar";
    }
  }
});

app.controller("Main", function($scope){
  $scope.name = "main";
});

Here's how the View would render:

in main: {{name}} will render "main"

  <foo>

in subtree of foo: {{name}} will render "main"

  </foo>
  <bar>

in subtree of bar: {{name}} will render "bar"

  </bar>

In your case, the subtree is evaluated in the scope of the View - not the directive, and that is why it doesn't work as you expected.
plunker
EDIT:
In some cases it may makes sense to evaluate the subtree in the context of the isolate scope of the directive. I've seen this used with directives that allow templating. But be careful with this because the author of the Main View should not know (too much) about the inner workings of the directive (i.e. what is exposed in the inner scope). This would also be difficult to read because you would see variables that do not make sense in the outer scope.
To evaluate the subtree in the isolate scope of the directive, the directive needs to $compile the subtree and link it against its scope.
Here's a directive that allows the user to provide a template for each item in the list. The item variable is not defined in the main scope, and only makes sense in the context of the directive's isolate scope:
<list src="items">
  <item-template>
    {{item.a}} | {{item.b}}
  </item-template>
</list>

The directive 'list' is below:
app.directive("list", function($compile){
  return {
    scope: {
      src: "="
    },
    link: {
      pre: function(scope, element){
        var itemTemplate = element.find("item-template");
        element.empty();

        var template = angular.element('

')
                              .append(itemTemplate.html());

        element.append(template);
        $compile(element.contents())(scope);
      }
    }
  }
});

For our Full Tilt Poker freeroll, I was thinking we could do a team thing. It would be my site (WeCrackAces) and TPC. My idea was we post the first half of the password and the second half of the password on TPC. And I was going to make the password random such as: "gk2dj6" so that if they see the first half of the password, they cannot guess it. They have to come to BOTH sites!
When members start joining, they have to come up with their own team name and make it a 5 man team. Let's say 5 members join: Joe, Bob, Jim, Jessica, and Sam. They want to be on a team.. they come up with a team name like "Wizards" or something and the best finishes for the team wins. The team with the best overall points will gain automatic entry into all future freerolls.
And back to the password thing, after they have gotten their teammates and team name, we will PM them the password a certain amount of time prior to the freeroll.
yes letts do a freeroll!!!!
As soon as we get the $25 on FT, we got it coming.
