Impunity, Responsibility and Citizenship – HAITI
Context and Background
During the spring 2012 semester, the Henri Peyre French Institute at The Graduate Center of CUNY organized Haiti-Rencontres, a series of events held at the Graduate Center from April 24 to April 30. Haiti-Rencontres featured an interdisciplinary perspective on Haiti and its current affairs, and brought together the sciences and the humanities, addressing at once questions of art, memory, public health, human rights, development, and engaged theater.
The first event (April 24) was an exhibit called Port-au-Prince Debout: 1750-2010…, an archival photographic account of the architecture and neighborhoods of Port-au-Prince before the earthquake (CIDIHCA/ Consortium for Haitian Empowerment (CHE) / United Haitian Artists). On April 25, the distinguished Swiss physician and medical researcher Jean-Daniel Rainhorn (Maison des Sciences de l'Homme, Institute for Global Studies, Paris) spoke on the causes of the cholera epidemic in Haiti ("Un Autre Regard sur l'Epidémie de Choléra en Haiti"). On April 30, the internationally known poet and theater performer Syto Cavé made his second visit to the Graduate Center. Both these visits were historic, in view of his stature in the world of Haitian letters and in the history of theater in NYC in the sixties, after which he did not return until the Graduate Center invited him a few years ago. (Annex 1).
The Impunity Seminar.-
In Fall 2013, the Henri Peyre French Institute (HPFI) renewed its commitment to promoting the visibility and understanding of Haitian culture and Haitian affairs, launching a new, bilingual, series of events on Haiti on the theme "Impunité, Responsabilité et Citoyenneté"/ "Impunity, Responsibility and Citizenship," as one of the HPFI's three-year seminars.
The seminar on "Impunity and Responsibility" is a reflection on the complex historical factors that have shaped the Haiti of today from the 1804 Revolution through various governments, opposition movements, and political discourses. These continue to haunt the collective Haitian view of the nation and its future and have much to do with its present national and international crisis status. By focusing on internal factors and their detailed history, as presented by Haitian voices themselves, the project seeks to contribute to the task of returning to Haitians much needed agency in reflecting on their own future, and to thus break away from the well-established tendency to view Haiti and Haitians through the prism of a fatalistic, victimized, unsolvable catastrophic reality. In the United States, even academics mostly retain the sketchiest view of the country which was not only the first Black Republic but one of the first republics of the world, and is generally labeled the site of misery, economic debacle, and dictatorial regimes. Haiti's history is much more complex than that and offers a fascinating window on how Haitian activists, intellectuals, artists and the average citizen have meshed and collided over more than two centuries in the struggle to forge some sort of a future. In the process, these diverse Haitian actors have produced unique analyses of the Caribbean and the sequels of slavery, of political organization and resistance, and of the quandaries of democracy, that have implications reaching far beyond Haiti's borders proper.
Thus, the seminar Impunity, Responsibility and Citizenship echoes a persistent concern in the Haitian community shared by scholars of Haiti regarding the institutionalization and normalization of impunity in Haiti.
Seminar topics covered events from the assassination in 1806 of Dessalines which to date remains judicially uninvestigated, to the present incapacity of Haiti as a nation to prosecute a dictator for well-documented and publicly proclaimed crimes. They included the tacit acceptance of incidents that have been purposefully left unresolved and in the shadows, such as the absence of any serious investigation of the assassination of the writer Jacques-Stephen Alexis and the journalist Jean Dominique, to only mention two of the most infamous. All these events clearly confirmed that this now generally known impunity has continued for over two centuries.
This seminar implies first of all recognition of this impunity. It does not merely view it as an object of grievance but envisages it as vital point of departure for another way of looking at Haitian reality. Artists, writers, and scholars have been invited to join in the discussion on the historical roots of this impunity, on its implication for the concepts of state responsibility and civic responsibility within the Haitian context, and on its impact on everyday life and discourse. The seminar thus attempts to establish a correlation between seemingly disjointed historical episodes and the constitution of the Haitian social texture.
Haiti Impunité : Une réflexion inter institutionnelle et multisectorielle
Concomitamment au séminaire Impunité du Henri Peyre French Institute, s'instaurait en Haiti et dans la diaspora haïtienne une réflexion nourrie en rapport à l'impunité en Haiti, et des actions concrètes plus circonscrites portant sur la dictature des Duvalier. Tout en n'étant pas nécessairement concertées, ces actions dans leur effet synergique, ne témoignent pas moins à la fois de la maturation de cette réflexion éparse et d'une conscience exacerbée de l'abject de la perpétration du fait de l'impunité.
Des plus notables, il faut retenir :
Janvier 2011. Plaintes contre Duvalier portées par devant les tribunaux haïtiens par des particuliers suivies de la création du Collectif contre l'Impunité qui se porte en partie civile.
7 février 2014. Le projet de sensibilisation à l'impunité et de transmission de la mémoire « Haïti lutte contre l'impunité » fonctionnant majoritairement en ligne est lancé simultanément à Port-au-Prince et à Montréal.
Juin 2014. Tenue à Port-au-Prince du colloque De la dictature à la démocratie.
Juin 2015. Colloque international : La rencontre des mémoires. Dictatures en Haiti et en Argentine – FOKAL et Universidad Nacional General Sarniento (UNGS).
2010. Devoir de Mémoire

Comments On Apr 27, 2016:Have made several of these, they are easy to make and sell quickly. Makes a great gift.

Comments On Apr 09, 2015:This is a great kit. Customers love it. I use a "We The People" cast blank that I make, for most and they are a hit. The tip can come unscrewed over time and this could be an issue. I saw in another review that they recommend gluing the tip on.
I use one for my personal key ring and get lots of positive remarks about it and request to purchase.

Comments On Jan 16, 2015:This is a very good product and I have sold quite a few of them. They are easy to make and look great!. However, I have had a problem with the tip coming off and getting lost by my customers. I have communicated this with craft supply and they suggest putting a small drop of glue or Loctite to secure it. I will be adding this to my key rings in the future.

Comments On Dec 14, 2014:This item makes for a great gift. Quality parts in the kit and easy to turn and assemble. This is a hot item for craft shows because many people look for quality personal items like this for under $20.

Comments On Dec 08, 2014:These bullet key rings are a perfect gift item. They are also wonderful to put toothpicks in or extra cash!

Comments On Jun 05, 2014:Love this kit. It look awesome when done! I was a little worried that the bushings were not a snug fit when I first inserted them. However, they turned perfectly and were well centered. Assembly was a very tight fit, but I was 10 for 10 with no cracking on any of the turned wood. Now we will see how they sell!

Comments On May 18, 2014:I made the Artisan Magnum Bullet Key Ring in just a short time In my shop.I cut a piece for the stars and a little longer piece for the stripes and glued them together. After a drying period I drilled a 3/8 hole thru the blank with no problem. I drilled slowly. After I glued in the barrel and drying I turned the blank to recommended size and sanded and polished. I had no problem, the product was excellent and I assembled the key ring and it is a beauty!

First trip to the Dr. - Friday, 8/26. Everything checked out fine. He had gained a couple of ounces back. He weighed 6lbs and 9 oz - he was 6lb 7oz when we left the hospital on Wednesday, 8/24. His jaundice levels were up a little so we actually went back 2 days later. He had gained another ounce and he levels were down a good bit. So everything was good. We actually go back today for another weight check. But I can tell he's gained by looking at him.
In his "Graham Day" gown - that matched all our shirts. =)
Bath time is lots more fun with cousins. I know 2 little girls that we are all missing...especially Saw!
Sweet babies!
Yes, Graham, I totally agree!
Harper took this pic. This was the night before all our company left. =( Sad to see them go but so thankful they were here for a week and for little Graham's arrival!
More baby toes...ahhh....
First sponge bath at home...
Saw rubbing on him - We are still trying to learn the concept of being easy. But overall, he's done so great with Graham. He is such a little helper. He throws away Graham's diapers, tries to give Graham his paci and blankie (and also tries to steal his paci and blankie) and loves to give him hugs and kisses!
Melts my heart...best buddies!
I know it's still early but I'm thinking we are going to have another blue eyed baby!
I think we are all adjusting really well. Sawyer is going to school 3 days a week - so it's the best of both worlds. A couple of days with both my boys and lots of playtime with Sawyer, who is so much fun. And then a couple of days with just Graham - these are nice to do nothing but snuggle and rest.

The current slab is 0-7.5 per cent, it said.
"The government has rightly revised custom duty on Electronics to up to 20 per cent recently to maintain the investment climate, and same is sought for Medical Electronics where import dependency is 90 per cent," AiMeD Forum Coordinator Rajiv Nath told PTI.
He said nominal import duty on critical items is not protectionism but sound 'Make in India' economics.
The industry body urged the government to introspect as to why, even after three years of the 'Make in India' campaign, the medical device manufacturing is still floundering.
On its expectations from the Union Budget (2018-19), AiMeD said the medical devices sector expects, "extension of inverted duty tariff rationalisation to medical electronics & diagnostics".
It also urged the government to expedite buy Indian policy drafted by Department of Pharmaceuticals which is pending with Ministry of Health & Family Welfare.
AiMeD also asked the Department of Pharmaceuticals to accelerate trade margin capping proposal in the range of 50- 100 per cent, depending on the cost of the devices.

I My vision is to have wonderful friendships with my clients. I want to be there for them every step of the way from making consults, communications, to obviously the awesome shooting time we have together, to picking out the perfect wall portraits for their homes.
My style is derived from the many personalities which each and every client possesses. Along with my unique photographing techniques & style, my attention to detail & enhancing process really finishes & compliments my photography perfectly. My art is so full of energy and captures true personalities because my clients trust me and my artistry. The relationships I create with my clients means everything to me. The natural moments happen seamlessly and we are laughing and chatting like I was one of your old buddies.
My passion of art, photography, and talking to strangers started at a very young age. It all seemed to blend perfectly. My outgoing personality allows me to 'get that shot' and push the boundaries of fine art and portraiture photography. Along with loving my craft, I am completely and utterly obsessed with the relationships and friendships I am able to make while doing what I love.
My mission at Gloss Photography Studios is to capture: YOU. The real you. Whether it is your wedding day, or a day at the park with the family; I will find the poetry in each moment and bring it to life through my artistic imagery. I choose to photograph so many different types of subjects including: maternity, baby, teens, family, graduates, pets, boudoir, couples, commercial head shots and modeling... and of course weddings to keep my artistic style and techniques fresh and unique. And without a doubt... extraordinary! I can't wait to be there for all of YOUR special moments in your life and to create portraits for you and your loved ones to enjoy for generations to come.
I graduated from the University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee with a Bachelor of Fine Arts. In 2006, I opened Gloss Photography Studios in Shorewood, Wisconsin. After an amazing 5 years, I moved the studio to my dream neighborhood of the Third Ward, where the Wisconsin studio currently resides. In 2011, I opened a second studio in Chicago nestled in an awesome industrial space in the West Loop. I am so fortunate to have some of the most amazing clients and relationships throughout these two amazing cities.

Community Use Agreements
We have a crucial role in promoting greater opportunities for sport and active recreation for local communities
We are therefore keen to encourage the opening up of sports facilities to the wider community, when they are not required by the main user.
Many educational sites, including schools of all kinds, academies and sports colleges, have very good sports facilities which are often underused out of normal school hours.
When an educational establishment decides that its sports facilities will be available for community use, it is valuable to agree in a Community Use Agreement (CUA) how it is intended to operate. This should cover such matters as hours of availability, management arrangements, pricing policy etc. The use of a CUA should help secure well-managed and safe community access to sports facilities on educational sites.
Drawing up agreements
We have therefore developed a template for a Community Use Agreement which provides a clear basis for drawing up agreements for individual schools, colleges and academies.
This CUA, which has been developed in conjunction with Field Fisher Waterhouse LLP, draws upon extensive knowledge of recent practice in drawing up, implementing and managing CUAs. It is intended to provide the basis for the development of agreements for a range of different educational establishments. It may be appropriate to amend this standard template as necessary to refer to appropriate local partners, to reflect local priorities, targets and circumstances. If the template is used, the CUA will need to be developed in consultation with the parties to the agreement before being finalised
In undertaking its planning application consultee role there may be instances when we will require a CUA to be submitted, approved and implemented to overcome its potential objection to an application. These instances may include where securing and/or enhancing community use is proposed, as one of the measures to provide adequate replacement provision and/or mitigation where existing playing field land or other sports facilities may be affected. This mitigation may be required in order for us not to formally object/withdraw our objection to a proposed development.
In these circumstances we would recommend that a CUA is secured through a condition on the planning permission for development. A CUA signed by all the key parties will be essential in such cases. A suggested condition is included within our Model Conditions document.
There will be other instances when we may not require a CUA but suggests that in order to provide certainty and clarity about the intentions concerning community access it would be highly desirable to develop one.

As more and more devices are able to connect to wireless networks, setting up a wireless router has become a crucial step for virtually any home network. Setting up a wireless network will allow your devices to connect to the internet from practically anywhere in the house, without the need for messy wires. To get started setting your network up, see Step 1 below.
Part 1
Connecting the Hardware
1Purchase a wireless router. Routers come in all shapes and sizes. Compare features to find the router that is right for you. If you have more area that you need to cover, or have lots of walls in your home, you'll need a router that offers the option of upgrading antenna(s) with high gain types - if not supplied in the box. If more than one wireless device will be connecting at the same time at different speeds, a MiMo type router is recommended, otherwise the speed for all devices will drop the highest supported by all at that time.
- All modern routers should support 802.11n, or Wireless-N). This is the most stable, offers the fastest speeds and is backwards compatible with older standards such as 802.11g.
2Connect your router to your modem. Routers and wireless routers enable you to share your broadband internet connection with multiple devices. To do so, you will need to connect your broadband modem to the router. For best results, place your router near your modem.
- Connect the router and the modem with an Ethernet cable. Most routers come packaged with a short Ethernet cable that you can use for this.
- Connect the modem to the WAN / Internet Port on your router. It is usually offset, and may be a different color from the LAN Ports. WAN stands for "Wide Area Network" which is what the internet actually is. LAN stands for "Local Area Network". The router will assign a local or "private" IP address to any device connected to its LAN Ports or WiFi signal from a pool of private addresses (listed further below).
3Connect any devices you want to hard wire with CAT 5 (or better) Ethernet cables. If you have computers that are close, or a video game console or TV, you can connect them to the router via Ethernet. This will result in a more stable and faster connection, and doesn't require any extra configuration.
4Connect at least one computer via Ethernet. You will need at least one computer connecting via Ethernet cable in order to adjust your router settings. You can disconnect this computer afterwards if you want to connect wirelessly. You can also connect your laptop wirelessly for the first time, the wifi network name and the default password will be printed on the router's label
Part 2
Connecting Your Router To Broadband Providers
1When you power on the router, it will only create its wi-fi network, and the device will be connected to the router's wi-fi connection, not the internet. To connect the router to the internet, with some internet providers (i.e. GTPL in India), it is required to register router's MAC address to the internet service provider's website.
- MAC of the router can be found printed on router or in the documents etc.
2Go to the internet service provider's website. Log in with the username and password provided by the internet service provider and go to MAC address update option. one can see their existing laptop / computers MAC address there. Add the router's MAC address there and save it. This process means that the router is authorized to use the internet provide by the broadband company.
Part 3
Configuring the Router
1Find the IP address of the router. If this is a new installation or new router, determine the default IP address that may be printed on a label affixed to the router or in the documentation. If you can't find the router's IP address anywhere, you can do a web search for the router model to see what the default address is.
- IP addresses are formatted as four groups of up to three digits, separated by periods.
- Commonly found "default" Local IP addresses for routers are 192.168.0.1, 192.168.1.1, 192.168.2.1, 10.0.0.1. Note that all the addresses in the follow ranges: 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255, 172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255 & 10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255 have been set aside for exclusive use in a LAN; and one address in the range of any of them of them would be assigned to the connected router.
2Open a web browser on the computer that is connected to the router. Enter in the IP address of the router into the address bar and press Enter. Your browser will attempt to connect to the router's configuration menu.
- If your router came with an installation disc, you can run the configuration program from that instead. It will accomplish many of the same functions.
3Enter your username and password. In order to access the configuration page, you will need to be on the router's IP address and enter a valid username and password at the prompt. Most routers have a basic account set up that you will need to use to log on. This varies from model to model, but should be printed on the router or in the documentation.
- The most typical username is "admin".
- The most typical passwords are "admin" and "password".
- Many routers will only require a username and a blank password, and some allow you to leave all fields blank.
- If you can't figure out the correct IP address, your username or password, search for your router model online to see what the default login is. If it has been changed, press the Reset button on the back of the router for 10 (to 30+ seconds as dictated in the instructions for the router model) to restore factory defaults and try again.
4Open the Wireless Settings. When you log in to your router, you will be taken to the router's main menu or status screen. There will be several options to choose from. The Internet section can usually be left at default settings, unless you received specific instructions from your internet service provider. The Wireless section will allow you to set up your wireless network.
5Enter a name for your wireless network. In the Wireless section, you should see a field labeled SSID or Name. Enter a unique name for your wireless network. This is what other devices will see when scanning for networks.
- Check the box to enable SSID broadcast. This will essentially "turn on" the wireless network so that it may be readily seen by anyone in range of the signal. *See the Tips section below for additional information on the SSID setting.
6Choose a security method. Choose from the list of available security options. For the best security, choose WPA2-PSK as the encryption method. This is the most difficult security to crack, and will give you the most protection from hackers and intruders.
7Create a passphrase. Once you've chosen your security method, enter in a passphrase for the network. This should be a difficult password, with a combination of letters, numbers, and symbols. Don't use any passwords that could be easily deduced from your network name or from knowing you.
8Save your settings. Once you are finished naming and securing your wireless network, click the Apply or Save button. The changes will be applied to your router, which may take a few moments. Once the router has finished resetting, your wireless network will be enabled.
9Change your router's username and password from the default. Once you have your network configured, you should change the username and password that you use to access your router. This will help protect your router from unauthorized changes. You can change these from the Administration section of the router configuration menu.[1]
10Block sites. If you want to prevent devices that are connected to your network from accessing certain websites, you can use built-in blocking tools to restrict access. These can be found in the Security/Block section of the router.
- You can usually block by specific domain names, or by keywords.

Mitt Romney says federal law requires hospitals to provide free care
Responding to a question about health care at a Wolfeboro, N.H., town hall, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney defended the health care law he signed in Massachusetts, saying it was partly a response to people who took advantage of a federal law that allows them to get free emergency coverage.
The former governor told the crowd he expanded health coverage in the Bay State in part so citizens could "take personal responsibility" for their health care.
"We found that because of federal law, federal law requires that hospitals treat people whether or not they can pay. So someone (who) doesn't have health insurance -- they can go to the hospital and get free care. And we found a growing number of people were dropping their insurance and going to the hospital if they got real sick."
Whether hospitals were properly compensated for treating the poor was one of the issues the Massachusetts health care law tried to address. In this case, we wondered if Romney was accurately describing the federal law and whether it truly equates with free care.
His campaign told us he was referring to the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act., which Congress passed in 1986. It says any hospital that receives Medicare dollars (and nearly 90 percent of hospitals in the United States do) must "provide a medical screening examination" for an emergency condition "regardless of an individual's ability to pay."
The American College of Emergency Physicians defines an emergency as "a condition manifesting itself by acute symptoms of sufficient severity (including severe pain) such that the absence of immediate medical attention could reasonably be expected to result in placing the individual's health (or the health of an unborn child) in serious jeopardy, serious impairment to bodily functions, or serious dysfunction of bodily organs."
If the patient's symptoms qualify as an emergency, the law says "hospitals are required to provide stabilizing treatment for patients."
So what does "stabilizing treatment for patients" mean in practice?
Matt Fenwick with the American Hospital Association says it means "your condition has been stabilized. (Medical providers) have done everything they can do to make sure your condition is not getting any worse."
But there's no guarantee a hospital will provide some level of treatment, even if a person is really sick, says George Washington University health policy professor Sara Rosenbaum.
"For example, you bring a child who is running a fever and has a sore throat. They say that's not an emergency. If it turns out the sore throat is very fast-moving strep, which can happen with little children, your child could be dead by night."
Rosenbaum says whether a patient actually gets treatment can be a matter of lucky timing and whether they show up at the emergency room just as the medical concern has blossomed into a true emergency.
She said that even when a person receives some care, there often is a big gap between stabilizing a patient's condition and providing them with treatment.
Dr. Arthur Kellermann, a health analyst with the Rand Corporation, a policy think tank, echoes that sentiment. He says a patient "will be stabilized and if necessary hospitalized. They are not entitled to primary care, they are not entitled to preventive care, they are not entitled to followup. That is more humane then letting people die in the gutter. But it is a ridiculous way to try to manage a health care system."
Our ruling
Romney said that federal law "requires that hospitals treat people whether or not they can pay. So someone doesn't have health insurance they can go to the hospital and get free care."
Experts told us that one aspect of Romney's argument has some validity: Many people rely on emergency rooms for care when they have nowhere else to go, which is expensive and a burden on the health care system and the larger society. And hospitals sometimes provide more free care than the law requires.
But Romney is wrongly suggesting more extensive treatment is required by federal law. He implies that hospitals are required to provide more free care than is actually mandated. In fact, the law just requires stabilizing treatment in an emergency. We rate his claim Barely True.
Editor's note: This statement was rated Barely True when it was published. On July 27, 2011, we changed the name for the rating to Mostly False.

First things first when you get home from a long vacation…put a new wreath on the door to go with the season. Everyone's first thought, right? No, just in my crazy world!
We fly our American flag all year long when it is nice outside, and I wanted to bring a little something classic red, white, and blue to the door. In true DIY fashion, I did some digging around and found this red tin star that was collecting dust in the basement. I have had this since we lived in Texas and I will always hold onto it for memory sake (two stints in TX, so we are honorary, right?).
I usually pull this star out at the holidays to use as inside décor, but never thought about putting it on the front door. A quick trip to Hobby Lobby for some ribbon and our festive "wreath" was hung.
It's all very classic looking, which I love. I found the ribbon in the massive 4th of July section at Hobby Lobby for 30% off. I also added two very small felt pads to the back of the bottom two pieces of the star so it won't damage the paint job upon opening and closing the door.
I think it works especially well with our blue front door (that I am still loving, by the way). Not every "wreath" has to be round!

I'm still laughing at your post... not because it's funny. Because I have that same star. And I keep moving it here to there because I have no idea what to do with it and where to put it. I absolutely love your idea of making it a patriotic wreath. It's all so clear now. Thanks for the idea! Hugs, HollyReplyDelete
Holly-so glad I found some inspiration for this darn star I have been hoarding in my basement and glad you found some inspiration too!! xoxoDelete
Love the star on your front door!ReplyDelete
Your front door looks amazing, I love the star. I have a few stars in my craft room to use as decoration for the 4th. Thanks for the inspiration. ;o)ReplyDelete

The video also features helpful graphics, interviews with teachers and other education experts, and informative commentary from Dr. Barkley.
|#15326/0635 ADHD Rush Hour
The issues surrounding ADHD are fiercely debated. Who decides when rambunctious behavior has become a psychiatric concern? Do the benefits of Ritalin outweigh its risks? Is ADHD even a true disorder, or just another way for pharmaceutical companies to make money?

This remarkable film shows in a short space of time many variants and how this disorder affects individuals from preschool age through adulthood. One common pharmaceutical treatment is Ritalin, a compound similar to cocaine. Many parents want to avoid its use and try other strategies which are shown here.

|#15618/0787 ADHD: What Can We Do?
This program introduces viewers to a variety of the most effective techniques for managing ADHD in the classroom, at home, and on family outings.

|#12569/0145 LEARNING DISABILITIES: A Complex Journey
What could be more important in any child's development than making them comfortable and competent in the learning process?

Explains signs and symptoms that parents can look for and offers advice on how to proceed.
|#14093/1615 MIND LIKE MINE (A): Adult ADHD
A compelling documentary chronicling a year in the life of two adults with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. Seven years after documenting their lives as children with ADD/ADHD in the film ODD KID OUT, the filmmaker turns the lens back to document their growth into young adults. Closed Captioned
This insightful and uplifting program examines how, within Hispanic, African-American, and Asian-American cultural contexts, the needs of high-functioning members of this population are being met through the empowering assistance of their families and through healthcare- and employment-related programs that promote self-determination.
|#12608/0145 ODD KID OUT: Living with Attention Deficit Disorder
Captures the frustration parents feel as they cope with their children's inappropriate behavior, scholastic failure and day-to-day hyperactivity but also emphasizes that children with ADHD are intelligent and can even be gifted in spite of the social and academic difficulties they face. Highly recommended for parents, teachers, and others who work with ADHD-affected families. Closed Captioned
What signs can help a parent who suspects that a child has a learning disability? And if those signs are present, what can a parent do then? This video focuses on a dilemma that effects many parents today. Do they turn to counseling...drugs...doctors...teachers?
|#15265/1416 READ ME DIFFERENTLY: Disabilities - New Perspectives
A shock of recognition in social work led to this exploration of how undiagnosed dyslexia and ADHD have impacted three generations in her family, starting with her own struggles. With surprising candor, vulnerability and even a touch of humor, this program reveals the strain of misunderstood learning differences on family relationships. *Includes Viewing Guide
Tantrums, resistance to chores, negativity--occasional clashes between parents and children are not uncommon. But when a child's defiance is chronic and disruptive of family life, he or she may have Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD). In this clear and accessible video program, leading authority Russell A. Barkley illuminates the nature of ODD and presents real-life scenes of family interactions and commentary from parents.

Contact the Environment Agency Floodline. Prior warnings of flooding from main rivers can be provided by email or text message by registering with the Environment Agency using the floodline number 0845 988 1188.
Flooding from ordinary rivers or streams
It is the riparian owners (i.e. the landowners) responsibility to make sure that a watercourse is not obstructed. If you live on the edge of any watercourse you have a responsibility to ensure that it does not become obstructed.
Partner agencies
The guidance is kindly provided by North West Leicestershire District Council and it's partner agencies involved in flood prevention, namely the Environment Agency, Public Health England and Leicestershire County Council. It is intended to serve as a source of general information.

Below is a listing of the books and magazines that have been published on the
DeLorean, John Z. DeLorean or DeLorean Motor Company. If you know of any that
are not listed here, please email me.
Reading is fundamental - and these books tell the story. All of these books are out of print and are a "must-have" for the serious DeLorean owner/enthusiast. The best way to learn the history of the car, company and man.
These books are usually easy to find (except as noted) on the internet including eBay and most used-book sites.
The DeLorean Tapes
Published by THE SUNDAY TIMES INSIGHT, London
DeLorean, by John Z. DeLorean with Ted Schwarz
The dust jacket says, "many have attempted to tell his story; now it is his turn". An interesting book written from JZD's perspective. It contradicts the other books on several subjects, several times, but makes for good reading. Some courtroom illustrations, and photos of JZD's artistic endeavors. JZD, in the past, has been willing to sign individual copies of this book for those who will send their book to him with return postage. To my knowledge, only published in hard cover.
"Grand Delusions: The Cosmic Career of John DeLorean"
Hillel Levin $20.00
"Hard Driving: My Years with John DeLorean" William Haddad $20.00
"On a Clear Day You Can See General Motors" J. Patrick Wright
"On a Clear Day You Can See General Motors" J. Patrick Wright
"Dream Maker: The Rise and Fall of John Z. DeLorean" Ivan Fallon and James Srodes
One of the first books to be published after DeLoreans arrest, the book suffers from poor editing and fact-checking, but does offer interesting insights into JZD, and DMC. Twenty-eight pictures. To my knowledge, only published in hard cover.
"DeLorean: Stainless Steel Illusion" John Lamm
Really the best book that I know of regarding the car itself, with hundreds of photos of protoypes, pre-production cars, mock-ups, assembly line, JZD, detail photos...it goes on and on. A few minor factual errors that I know of, but for the most part a great book! To my knowledge, only published in hard cover. Very rare, often selling for over $200. REPRINT NOW EXPECTED FALL 2003 by DeLorean Motor Company of Texas
"DeLorean 1977-1993" For those of you that missed the whole DeLorean saga when it was happening, this book is nothing more than a compilation of magazine articles from around the world. Many of the articles are very interesting, though knowledgeable DeLorean buffs will notice many factual errors in many of the articles. Hundreds of photos, all black and white. This, and the "Gold Portfolio" edition are the only books that are currently in print. To my knowledge, only published in paperback form.
"DeLorean 1977-1995 Gold Portfolio" Drawing on material from a wide range of motoring magazines, this volume is devoted to the prestigious and high-performance cars from DeLorean. Expanded Brooklands coverage features articles by the top automotive journalists from the world's leading automotive publications. Filled with road and track tests, model introductions, driving impressions, comparisons, a factory visit, performance and technical data, specs, long term reports, and so much more. This, and the "1977-1993" edition are the only books that are currently in print. To my knowledge, only published in paperback form.
"Automobile Quarterly, Volume 21, Number 2" Article by Walt Woron
Those familiar with AQ know the depth and breadth of their articles, and this one is no exception. The article, entitled "Dreaming the Impossible Dream: The DeLorean and its Predecessors", also looks at Tucker, the Davis and the Dale, various reincarnations of the Duesenberg name, the Fascination, the Bricklin and then a 8+ page article on the DeLorean that is both accurate and concise. Seven wonderful color photographs of a clean original car. To my knowledge, only published in hard cover.

The Guardian's recent feature on 'Marriage equality opponents have spent five times more on TV ads, analyst says', showcases Ebiquity's findings on advertising spend for both 'yes' and 'no' parties in the same-sex marriage postal survey.
Ebiquity's findings highlight the yes campaign's $64,000 TV ad buy is far less than 'no' campaign's $312,000, with a spike in advertising spend predicted to rise as postal votes are beginning to arrive in mailboxes.
Ebiquity's Director of Client Service – Advertising in Australia, Aaron Rigby, said it was understandable the yes campaign was behind because its ads had started more recently but on total spending so far "it's still a victory for the no [side]". Aaron also went on to demonstrate the likely trends of advertising spend for the rest of the survey period;
We haven't seen anything yet: I think we will start to see a spike in activity, now the postal votes are arriving in people's post boxes … and then a continuous flatline of spending throughout the [survey]period, with a final spike towards the end to convince those who haven't voted.

Simply because we believe that you will get the greatest Item and nicely deserved Consumer Service, to cover your Fuel Injector and Component needs. These partially blocked or clogged injectors will result in the engine to idle erratically, make it challenging to start off and misfire. Fuel injectors are regarded as to be dirty when the hydrocarbons and additives which all types portion of today's fuels, together with engine gunk and carbon, trigger the injectors to become restricted. Right after cleaning the fuel injectors, if engine overall performance issues persist, here is a list of maintenance items—including sensors—that you may want to check to support you restore fuel economy and correct engine performance. The ideal way to clean fuel injectors is to prevent dirt, contaminants and buildup from clogging passages in the initial location. Make sure that the shop will truly run a cleaning solution directly to the fuel injectors.
If the fuel injectors are in no way cleaned, as the automobile ages you'll start off to notice that your vehicle shakes a bit although idling and at some point it will either stall or misfire, and all the even though your fuel economy and engine efficiency will suffer. Your car service manual may give you the process to check the sensor operation making use of a digital multimeter and its service interval. Low-cost gasoline is usually lacking in the additives that breakdown clogging and, more than the lengthy haul, can cost you much more cash than it saves. But for older automobiles that have excess clogging, fuel injector cleaner is the only thing strong enough to break up the clogging and restore engine performance and fuel efficiency.
Either of these approaches is a great selection when operating with difficult to clear injectors. I agree with the premise of the post even so, looking for out and making use of Best Tier Gasolines, IMO, could reduce or get rid of the need for fuel cleaners which is why I no longer buy 'No Name Brand Low cost Gasoline'. Fuel injector cleaner operates by stripping away the clogging the builds up more than time. If your automobile is a 2004 model, then your injectors shouldn't be dirty enough yet to cause misfiring.
Before you get expensive new or refurbished fuel injectors let us help you take care of your fuel injector difficulties. There are several various types of fuel injection cleaners, and the ideal fuel injection cleaner is a single that may well surprise you. But the value you pay for a decent kit (above $200.00 dollars), the number of occasions you will truly use it, and the risk of damaging one particular or far more injectors (plus the fuel regulator, or some other method element), it could turn out as well high-priced compared to the expense of obtaining a expert shop do it instead. Service manual could tell you how to verify the TPS making use of a digital multimeter as properly. In most instances dirty fuel injectors does not have to be replaced with expensive new fuel injectors. Injector cleaner mainly targets the injectors and will not support clogs in the fuel pump.
Residue of fuel in the injector nozzles starts to evaporate, and it leaves the oilfins behind, which don't evaporate and some of which do not get washed away, but rather get baked into hard varnish deposits, which eventually will clog the injectors. With an in-location cleaning operation, the solution is run by way of the fuel rail with air pressure to assist take away carbon buildup and tough to get rid of varnish inside the injectors. When the issue has just started and the contaminants have not had a chance to bake themselves about the injectors passages yet, you can eliminate these deposits making use of particular fuel additives made to clean and clear fuel injectors.

Your Pet is in Good Hands
Since its earliest days, a special feeling about people has helped Companion Pet Clinic grow and earn the loyalty of client and employees. It has been able to provide needed veterinary care to animals that would otherwise have to go without. We have truly lived up to and will continue to work toward our beliefs and concept that "No Act Of Kindness, No Matter How Small Is Ever Wasted".
Companion Pet Clinic was founded in April of 1982 in Portland, Oregon. The veterinarians that founded the company wanted to help control the burgeoning pet population and provide quality veterinary care at affordable prices. The success of Companion Pet Clinic is owed partly to the need that is present and primarily owed to the employee's commitment, devotion, and concern for the pets and clients that they serve. This is the first Companion Pet Clinic in Seattle, and we are very excited to bring our compassionate affordable care to the area.

Slots used in free spins promotions
When registering on a new casino site in the UK or elsewhere in the world the casino usually offers some kind of welcome package as a registration bonus for new customers. That means that you can get stuff like free casino money, free spins or match bonuses and the most popular right, both for players and casinos, is probably free spins. In this article we will briefly go through some of the slots usually used in free spins promotions.
Tip: Use BonusExpert.co.uk's free spins list to find the best free spins promotions out there.
Starburst is the most used slot in free spins offers and also the most popular slot from the famous swedish slot provider NetEnt. Starburst is a space-themed game with loads of fun functions such as a free spins mode, wins from both ways and awesome mega-wilds. Starburst is used on casinos such as Leo Vegas and bet365 in their welcome packages.
Gonzo's Quest
Another very popular slot to use for the casinos is Gonzo's Quest that takes the players on an adventure where they are looking for a treasure. The best thing with Gonzo's Quest is probably the free spins mode where you can win up to 40,000 times the money.
How do casinos choose which slots to use?
The casino has to think of a couple of different parameters when choosing which slots to use in their promotions. First off it needs to be a well recognized and popular slot so that the public will think of the promotion as a good one. It's also very important for the casino to use cheap slots, in other words slots where they pay less to the slot provider. Another thing that they think of is how high the minimum bet is as you always get your free spins on the minimum bet.

Jonathan Cheban On Kim Kardashian's Social Media Return
It's hard to believe, but it's been almost a month since Kim Kardashian was robbed at gunpoint in a Paris hotel room.
Since her traumatic experience, the 36-year-old has kept a low profile, attempting to stay as far away from cameras and the public eye as humanly possible.
Earlier this week, though, photos of Kim Kardashian getting ice cream with her best friend, Jonathan Cheban, surfaced across the internet, and the images are incredibly upsetting.
Kim K does not look OK, and it's not just her family members who are concerned for her well-being.
Kardashian has millions of fans around the world, and all they've seen of Kim since the harrowing events in Paris are paparazzi pics of her in sweatshirts, not looking anything like her normal self.
The big question now is, when will Kim Kardashian return to social media?
Kim's mom, Kris Jenner, has kept pretty quiet about her daughter's plans to get back into the spotlight and communicate with her followers, but her best friend, Jonathan Cheban, offered up some key insight on whether or not Kardashian will return to social media at any time in the near future.
When questioned about his friend's social media hiatus, Jonathan Cheban said,
I'm looking out for it, but I doubt it. I don't think so.
Damn. So, is this an indefinite social media split? Like, will Kim Kardashian be back in a few months? A few years? EVER?
Obviously, this latest news about Kim K's break from the public spotlight is extremely concerning to everyone who cares about the star's health.
No one can know for certain what's going on inside Kim's head, but I can only imagine what it would be like to plead for my life, not knowing if I'm going to be able to see my family and friends ever again.
Hopefully, Cheban is wrong about his best friend, and we'll see Kim Kardashian back on social media and in the public eye sooner rather than later.

You may have noticed lately that I have become quite the lover of all things Clarins. I have always been a fan of Clarins skincare but had not really delved too deep into their cosmetic range. I know it is awful to admit but I thought their cosmetic line was more aimed at mature skin. I have been happily receiving little packages containing both skincare and cosmetics in the post which I am not going to lie makes me incredibly giddy. The stunning red and gold packaging really appealing to my inner magpie and full on diva.
I must point out that I have no link or affiliation to the Clarins group and receive no payment or pressure to review the products kindly sent to me. I know they do listen and value my opinion something of which I am grateful for. I always speak my mind when it comes to products I try out anyway but I just wanted to remain fully transparent as I know it is so hard these days to differentiate between someone giving their personal opinion and someone just trying to sell you something. The later most definitely not being me. I would make a crap sales person. Anyway this post is the first in a series of Clarins related beauty reviews as I just could not bundle them all together, the post would just go on for ages otherwise. So for this first post, I have focused on discussing some goodies from this seasons Graphik makeup collection.
Ombré matte eyeshadow – €24 each
These individual ombré matte eyeshadow pots look and feel luxurious both from a packaging point of view and of course the eyeshadow itself. The eyeshadow formula is a mix of a cream and powder consistency that applies easily and has great pigmentation. The eyeshadow contains fine bamboo powder which is responsible for creating its matifying effect. These individual transparent pots with shiny screw top gold lids are certainly eye-catching and look very elegant.
The two shades I tried out were Ivory (shade 09) and Midnight Blue (shade 10). The Ivory being a delicate but beautiful luminous eggshell white colouring. Perfect for applying to the inner corner of the eye, brow bone or as a delicate unassuming eyeshadow base. It is a very subtle shade that becomes evident upon capturing the light. It is like a light dusting of glamour. The midnight blue shade is simply stunning. Personally I would not be naturally drawn to blue hues but I am delighted to have been introduced to this little gem. It applies as a nice smokey dark blue colouring but becomes alive emitting a beautiful pearlised glow when light hits it. It really is a stunning colour and I can see it being incredibly popular. I don't think these eyeshadows are really suitable for day time use but would certainly look stunning on a night out or during the festive season.
Blush prodige – €34
As soon as I clasped eyes on this beautifully presented limited edition blusher, I just knew we would be best friends. I am not ashamed to admit that I instantly fell in love with the stunning gold packaging. The golden pink shade (shade 09) of the blusher being delicate but flattering to just about any skin tone. Its finish being slightly iridescent which helps highlight the cheeks. The colour effect being warm and complimentary. It is like a healthy glow housed in a gorgeous compact, easily accessible and long-lasting. This blusher also contains bamboo powder which has a firming action on the skin.
I really like this beautiful but delicate blusher and believe it will really suit people with a fair to medium complexion best as it is quite subtle. I think darker toned skins may need more of a pop of colour to be noticed on their skin. As you can see from the swatches above, the blush is very natural and provides a hint of warmth. It is not overpowering, is easy to apply and feels nice on the skin. Personally I am not a fan of the little brush that is supplied with the compact but it is handy for transport purposes. The gold casing also incorporates a handy mirror which is essential for top up's and keeping yourself looking glam on the go.
Four colour eyeshadow palette – €43
This extremely portable (quad) eyeshadow palette seriously echoes this seasons autumnal tones. It contains two green shades (which look grey to me) in two different finishes. One being a light and slightly satin shade and the other being a smokey shade with a slight shimmering finish. To finish it all off a dark matte grey shade and a light pink satin shade are added to complete the eyeshadow quad. Each shade complementary to one another and easily blendable to create a smokey eye look. A handy tip is to slightly dampen your eyeshadow brush when applying these eyeshadows to further intensify their pigmentation.
Each eyeshadow contains carnauba wax powder which helps promote a comfortable and long wearing finish. The packaging is also in keeping with Clarins signature luxury gold packaging and comes with a handy little mirror and double ended eyeshadow applicator. I personally don't like using these applicators to apply my eyeshadow, I much prefer using a proper makeup brush but I do find them handy for applying a light shade to the inner corner of the eye and to add a further smokey eyeliner effect to the bottom lash line.
The shade of this particular eyeshadow palette is called forest which is in keeping with the green hues used in two of the eyeshadows. Having said that I cannot for the life of me pick up on any green pigmentation in this palette, Kev can however. It is amazing how everyone see's colour slightly differently. I have swatched the eyeshadows (see above) both with and without flash to get a better feel for the colours. Don't get me wrong the colours are still beautiful in their own right and create a stunning smokey eye look that can be used for day or night-time use. I would personally only apply the darkest shade to help deepen the overall look for nighttime use as it can create quite a dramatic look.
Lipliner pencil – €18 each
These two lip liners perfectly compliment two shades of the joli rouge lipsticks mentioned below. They are both lightweight, easy to manipulate and highly pigmented. I must hold my hands up and admit that I am shocking when it comes to applying lip liner. I just get too lazy or simply forget to apply it but I really should. Even if it is to prevent my lipstick from bleeding. Each lip liner contains jojoba oil, a nourishing oil that is kind to the skin.
The two shades I tried out were roseberry (shade 05) and red (shade 06). Roseberry being a dusty pink colour and red being bright red. When it comes to lip liner, I am no expert so I will just let the above swatches speak for themselves.
Joli rouge lipstick – €24 each
These beautifully packaged lipsticks are even too pretty to use but what is the use in having a nice lippy if you cannot use it? I received these three beautiful shades perfect for this time of year to try out. I know lipstick is very personal and what may suit one person may not suit another. I cannot wear red lippy for love nor money. It just does not suit me. I know you may think but Avril you have dark features surely the colour red would look fab on you, nope! Red anything makes me look really pale. It draws the colour out of my skin rather than complementing it unfortunately. I am extremely envious of those who can really rock a red lippy.
Each one of these three shades are super pigmented, moisturising on the lips and create a lovely satin finish. I have swatched all three colours both on my lips and arm and found them to have good lasting power. Obviously due to their cream consistency they are not as hard-wearing as a matte lipstick. The lipsticks contain two wonderful ingredients, organic marsh samphire and mango oil. Organic marsh samphire helps retain water in skin cells which provides plump, super hydrated and moisturised looking lips. Mango oil is also extremely nourishing on the lips and creates a protective layer to help keep lips supple whilst also protecting them from harmful UV rays.
The three shades I tried out were guava (shade 756), litchi (shade 755) and deep red (shade 754). Guava a lovely deep coral, was my favourite out of all the shades as it suited my complexion the best followed by litchi and finally deep red. Litchi is an interesting smokey pink shade perfectly matched to the roseberry lip liner. I am still in two minds whether this shade suits me or not but I know my Mam has her eye set firmly on it. Deep red is a beautiful true red perfect for autumn/winter but as I mentioned above does absolutely nothing for me unfortunately. This shade perfectly complements the red lip liner mentioned above. Each lipstick applies beautifully and feels nourishing on the lips. That nourishing feeling really lasts and the lips appear moist and dare I say kissable. I personally would love to see more vibrant colours available within the range as they are a beautiful lipstick.
All of the Clarins makeup products mentioned above are now available to purchase at your local Clarins counter.

Ask Microsoft: Email storage trade-offs
A messaging director with Microsoft's internal IT organization offers advice on three options to tackle the growing problem of mailbox storage.
On a regular basis, top Microsoft executives answer readers' toughest technical questions about Windows-based systems. This installment of "Ask Microsoft" was answered by Chris Nelson, messaging director, Microsoft IT.
To submit a technical question for consideration, send an e-mail to email@example.com.
Question: I am having to deal with a never-ending problem of mailbox storage. We back up all of our users' mailboxes, and as such all, mail remains in the mailbox. It is not moved down to the user's PC to a PST when they open Outlook. It is kept in the mailbox on the Exchange server. I know there might be a third-party solution to this, but we don't have the funds. As a result, I am constantly after my users to delete items no longer needed and to archive stuff they need to keep. The Microsoft Outlook archive solution is not viable for most of my users because it just grabs all old e-mail en masse and pushes it to a PST. The archive PST thus becomes a type of black hole. Any thoughts on how to get around that?
Answer: There are a few options to resolve this. As you stated, one option is third-party archiving tools. The trade-off is additional cost and complexity. Another option is to have users create PSTs and selectively move items to the PSTs that should be retained. The drawback here is the IT administrator loses control of the content and now has to worry about backing those PSTs up. The last option would be to use Mailbox Manager in Exchange to automatically clean up items in the users' mailboxes for them based upon IT administrator-set timelines. -- Chris Nelson
