Downpatrick Sewer System To Get £2.6million Boost From DRD
REGIONAL Development Minister Danny Kennedy has announced that NI Water will be starting essential improvements to the sewerage infrastructure in Downpatrick.
Work will begin in the Market Street and Hunters Mill areas of the town in November 2013. Some temporary disruption is expected in Downpatrick.
These essential improvement schemes represent a total investment of approximately £2.6million and will continue until spring 2015.
Regional Development Minister Danny Kennedy said: "These improvement schemes are good news for the local area as they will reduce the risk of out-osewer flooding, meet the needs of future development in the area and will help meet Northern Ireland Environment Agency Standards."
Sara Venning interim Chief Executive, NI Water, added: "The first phase of the Market Street Pumping Station Project was completed in 2010 in advance of the Environmental Improvement Scheme carried out by Down District Council. This involved the installation of a trunk sewer between the existing and proposed pumping station plus associated works. We are now pleased to announce the second phase of the scheme, which represents an investment of approximately £1.6million.
"The second improvement project at Hunter's Mill will run alongside the Market Street scheme and represents an investment of approximately £1million. Both schemes will greatly improve the sewerage infrastructure in the area and improve water quality in local watercourses."
Commitments Given On Downpatrick Sewage Investment Now Being Delivered Upon Says Ritchie
Welcoming the news about the sewer investment in Downpatrick, South Down MP Marageret Ritchie said: "I have been pursuing the Minster for Regional Development and NI Water on the delivery of this £2.6 million sewage infrastructure project in Downpatrick town centre.
"Back in July 2013, after the flooding event in Market Street, the Minster for Regional Development gave me an undertaking that work on the new pumping station and associated infrastructure would begin at the earliest possible opportunity. I very much welcome the fact that we now have the start date of November 2013.
"I look forward to the planned improvements that this work will bring and the reduction in flooding risk to the centre of Downpatrick. I will continue to monitor the progress of this scheme. I welcome the assurances by NI Water that they will co-operate fully with local businesses and keep them informed of developments as the project progresses."
Sinn Féin Welcome £2.6 Million for Downpatrick Sewer Improvements
South Down MLA Chris Hazzard said he was delighted to learn that NIWater have announced a £2.6million improvements scheme for sewerage infrastructure is in Downpatrick.
Mr Hazzard added:"This scheme is essential for the future development of Downpatrick and the wider area. For some time now Downpatrick has been dogged by continuing sewerage related problems. In the last six months alone I and my colleagues have met on numerous occasions to discuss our concerns directly with NIWater.
"I am pleased that officials seem to have grasped the importance of what we've be shouting about for so long. I pay tribute to NIWater for their commitment to working alongside us over the last period and in now delivering on what is a substantial and much needed investment for Down.
"This investment will reduce the risk of sewer flooding, which has already occurred twice this year and we are not even into the winter period yet. I further believe that this investment meets the needs of the future development of this part of Downpatrick but more work and investment is needed in order to deal with the wide range of issues that affect the area in terms of our water and sewerage system."
Mr Hazzard added that he would be writing to the Minister for Regional Development to request that the procurement process or the impending works is used as an opportunity to provide employment to local firms.
"The Executive have signed up to a Programme for Government commitment to adhere to social clauses. However, the onus is very much on the respective Department to ensure that when contracting for major public works, local companies are given maximum opportunity and assistance to avail of the contracts in order to generate local employment. I will be raising this matter with the Minister and pressing him to ensure that social clauses and local job opportunities are a key objective for his Department when assigning a contractor."
Councillor Éamonn Mac Con Midhe said that the Hunter's Mill project has been on the table for quite some time and he was relieved to see finance being made available to now deliver on it.
He said: "In the Hunters Mill area the sewerage system is combined, carrying both sewerage and rainwater flows, which in periods of wet weather often leads to overflows at the plank drain in Thomas Russell Park. NIEA had deemed the overflow unacceptable some time ago so NIWater have been working towards this project which will see the installation of an underground holding tank feeding into the Downpatrick wastewater treatment plant. This project will complement the works already completed at Market Street Pump station 3years ago and will greatly improve the sewerage infrastructure in the area and water quality in local watercourses."
Councillor Liam Johnston added: "It is important that NIWater consult with local residents, particularly those in Thomas Russell Park to minimise the inconvenience during the time of construction; and that any associated traffic and pedestrian restrictions required, are widely advertised to allow for ease of traffic flow through the town.
"NIWater should engage now with local residents, businesses, Council and Roads Service to ensure that plans are put in place, as this work will be substantial and will undoubtedly lead to some roads closures and disruption to business in the town centre."
The improvements at Market Street will involve the following:
* Construction of a new pumping station/storm retention tank in an area of the car park behind the Grove Shopping Centre.
* Laying of a new foul pumping main from the new pumping station to Russells Park Pumping Station (located in Dunleath Park).
* Laying of a new storm pumping main to the River Quoile (via the car park access road, through the Down Historical Railway grounds and across the fields to the river).
* Final sewer upgrades and connections in Market Street to route flows to the new pumping station.
* Demolition of the existing Market Street pumping station.
The Hunters Mill Project, which will also get underway in November, will provide extra stormwater storage, particularly during periods of heavy rainfall and will reduce the risk of out of sewer flooding in the area.
The scheme will provide the following improvements:
* Construction of a new stormwater storage tank in the existing open ground near Thomas Russell Park.
* Laying of new sewers in the open ground between Hunters Mill and Thomas Russell Park.
* Provision of a new screened overflow.
* Sewer upgrades in Stream Street.
A DRD spokesperson added: "During construction a temporary construction road will be constructed via the playing fields in order to minimise any inconvenience to the residents of Thomas Russell Park.
"There will be associated traffic and pedestrian restrictions required to allow the works to be completed in a safe environment. This will include lane and road closures in the area at certain times. However, signage will be in place and the public will be made aware in advance of any restrictions.
"As with all work of this nature, there will be an element of disruption and NI Water would like to thank the public and local businesses in advance for their patience and cooperation, and assure them that we will do everything we can to complete the work as quickly as possible with minimum disruption.

Just Do the Math
Today was a shopping day for me. I live about 45 minutes from any store that you would recognize so it takes a little planning and plotting to gather in supplies. It also takes most of the day! I love a good bargain and today I was able to find some great buys. Easter supplies for our annual egg hunt were on my list. I found prizes and basket stuffers at two of my favorite dollar stores. There were books, kites, toys and decorations only one dollar each. Here's a few of my one dollar finds:
The best bargain of the day was the five cartons of Coke I purchased at CVS Pharmacy. This week's sale had five cartons for fifteen dollars. I bought five and used a ten dollar gift card that I had from my last purchase of laundry detergent, and toilet paper. That reduced my total to $5.90. They gave me back five dollars in rewards for the next purchase I make. To make this work you have to shop for just items on sale. Don't be distracted by the other items in the store--don't even look! As my daughter, who sometimes combines coupons and sale prices to reduce her total to just change, says, "Just do the math."

Life can feel very busy. There are demands from every direction, pressures and stresses that can roll around in our heads. Things that we worry might happen, or things that we are afraid might not.
Picture for a moment all of the noise falling away, as you sit in the sand of a silent dune, and experience a moments peace.... This is a place where you can breath, where you can have time to relax, and hopefully have time to think without fear or judgement. We may not be able to transport you to your own private wilderness, but over the next six weeks we are offering a menu of small and simple ways to pull you out of routines and ruts and help make space for new thoughts and new directions. A little forward planning is needed - like a diet or exercise - you need to think ahead about the practical things you might need to, like a quiet place to sit, a route to walk, an amount of time - ten minutes will do. This are things to set aside as space for these activities.
There is a menu of nine activities for each two week period, divided into 3 categories: changing, cleansing and reducing.
Simply choose one of these activities and try it, daily or occasionally, for this two week period.
Then check back to pick a new activity for the next two weeks, either to replace, or to add to the one you are already practicing.
Don't push it
weeks 3&4
1 - Help someone without rewardLook for an opportunity today to do something for someone when there is nothing in it for you.... This could be something you have thought of for awhile or a spontaneous act. This is just about getting the feeling of giving something away freely.
2 - Give your thoughts away (anonymous prayer)
Take 10 minutes out of your day to think of someone else, either in general, or a specific situation and ask God to help or to bless what you are praying for.... You don't need to be specific about what you want to happen, just focus on the idea of the blessing. A particularly helpful image is of a light shining into darkness so that the darkness disappears. Try to do this each day, in your head, or through writing or drawing. What is important here is for this to be something private to you, do not share your prayers with the person you are praying for.
3 - Daily examine
1) Take a moment at the end of the day to move back through your experiences and process your emotions. You can take time to look for God in different parts of your day. ... You can follow this sequence if you like: 1. Pray for light: that you can understand your days events. 2. Review the day saying thank you 3. Review the feelings that surface in the replay of the day 4. Choose one of those feelings (positive or negative) and pray from it. 5. Look toward tomorrow. For a more detailed guide click here https://www.ignatianspirituality.com/ignatian-prayer/the-examen/rummaging-for-god-praying-backward-through-your-day
1 - Daily reflection
Take 10 minutes, before you get up, or as you eat breakfast, or even in the shower, to think about three areas of your life. For things that are difficult - Bless those you struggle with.... For everything little, food, shelter, health - Be thankful for what you have that is good. For things that you have done that were wrong. - Turn away from things that have been wrong and step towards something better. Try to think about these things lightly. Know that you don't need to think of solutions or answers, just take the time to process each area.
2 - Time for movement (dance, pilates, walking - followed by silence) - connecting your mind and bodySpending 10 or 15 minutes moving your body around, to raise the heart rate and produce happy chemicals in your brain can have a very positive effect on your day. ... This is particularly effective in the morning before breakfast. You can try one of these exercises at home: CLICK HERE Or join us at Southside Youth Hub at 9.30am on a Tuesday and 6.30pm on a Thursday (until 18/04/2019) for a free exercise session.
3 - A moment for perspective
Take a time to see the world in a different light. Switch from 'doing mode' to 'being mode'.... This means looking at the events of your life without seeing your feelings about them as a fixed reality. Your feelings and comments about the world do not need to define you. Through this you can have a moment to change your internal landscape, letting you reset some of the emotions that you may have thought were fixed in place.
1 - Walk everywhere today
Slow the pace of life down by staying local, and watching the world as you walk. ... Let your senses take in the the sights and sounds, the beauty, but also the mess and the brokenness that make up life around us.
2 - Only nature programmes
1) This is a simple one. Either use the TV guide or an app like the BBC IPlayer to watch only nature programmes this week. ... Think of this again as a palate cleanser, like brushing your teeth. Taking away other distractions by focusing on the wonder of the natural world and give yourself space in your mind to reflect on this throughout the day
3 - Turn off auto pilot
This means all the things that you would normally do without thinking, you will take the time to think about.... Walk slowly, chew your food, be aware of your breathing. Suspend judgement about what you are thinking about, neither good nor bad, to free you from preconceptions. Treat your mind with compassion, be gentle, and approach thoughts with curiosity. Let your brain think what it will, without telling it off or correcting it. Allow yourself time, without the auto-pilot of your day, to do something that makes you happy without achieving an aim or a goal. Something that is just fun.
Please choose an activity and check back on 08/04/2019 for a new menu of options.

With a 125W heat load applied by the FrostyTech AMD K8 synthetic thermal test platform, the Thermaltake Frio heatsink yields an excellent rise above ambient temperature of just 11.1°C over ambient with both fans operating at full speed (2500RPM / 62.6 dBA noise ). The results are among the best in the AMD reference charts, and one of the loudest too boot. After decreasing both fans to 1200RPM, the Thermaltake Frio still maintains a very good temperature result of 14.8°C over ambient. Noise falls to quieter 37.7 dBA.
The results for this heatsink on the Intel LGA775 version of FrostyTech's synthetic thermal test platform are next.

Zika virus is transmitted to people primarily through the bite of an infected mosquito. The type of mosquito that most often carries this virus is found in Central and South America, including Mexico, Puerto Rico and other islands in the Caribbean, as well as some areas of the southern U.S. Zika virus is not currently circulating in the U.S. but has been detected in returning travelers.
Symptoms normally start 3–7 days after being bitten by an infected mosquito. Common symptoms include fever, joint soreness, rash or red eyes. Many people may not experience any symptoms.
Health officials are concerned about reports of microcephaly (abnormally small heads) in infants related to Zika virus infection during pregnancy. Reports of Guillain-Barre syndrome are also being investigated.

My first book, published with Palgrave Macmillan Press, is Violent Subjects and Rhetorical Cartography in the Age of the Terror Wars. It explores the relationship between violence and discourse, generating political and cultural insights about the possibilities for newly formed subjectivities within the history of US-led global war on terror and the majority Muslim world as well as reflections on discourse's relationship to violence. The monograph argues that these insights point to both a refiguration of cultural patterns and also to the ways different subjectivities arise and circulate through larger maps of contemporary global power within the post 9/11 conjuncture.
More specifically, the project introduces three areas of insight. First, for rhetorical studies it suggests a refiguring of the rhetorical situation as material. As such, it suggests that the rhetorical situation is composed of bodies, technologies, and spaces/places. Second, the project performs rhetorical cartography as a method of inquiry, drawing from both rhetorical studies and from critical cartography and geography. This method allows mapping of modes of materiality in a quest to better confront global power relations and transnational rhetorics. Finally, the project suggests a political and cultural insight for understanding perceptions of the majority Muslim world and violence against majority Muslim people as part of the global war on terror. Here, the project posits that through its rhetorical cartography we better can map the multitude of ways that subject positions within the global war on terror are generated and reconstituted.
In drawing these conclusions, the book project centers around the technology of US armed drones as part of the global war on terror, specifically dealing with the implications armed drone use in the Middle East and North Africa by the United States (and the droneworld it has spawned) has for understanding the way violence functions communicatively. The work performs a rhetorical cartography of drone culture alongside a mapping of Egypt's revolutionary moment via Tahrir Sqaure in January of 2011, and the landscape of what is sometimes called the "Arab Spring," exploring the possibilities in each of these mappings to refigure and resist technologies of governance both within the United States and globally.
Violent Subjects has been reviewed widely since its release. It has been labeled "insightful and provocative" (Rhetoric and Public Affairs) and has been said to "offer useful frameworks for future work" (Rhetoric Review). It has also been called "incredibly important" as a "contribution that transcends rhetoric" (Rhetoric Society Quarterly). Additionally, scholars have said the book "deepens our understanding of rhetorical theory and method, contributes to our knowledge of the ways in which violence and war are deeply rhetorical, and adds to the scholarly conversation on empire and colonialization" in addition to offering "a new and provocative thesis on the rhetoric of violence."
Violent Subjects can be ordered here. In addition, check back here - or check out the "Events" page - for readings, events, talks, and book signings near you!

Gannet Co. proposed to acquire Tribune Publishing Co. in a deal valued at about $400 million, as the owner of the USA Today seeks to add the Los Angeles Times and Chicago Tribune to its portfolio of newspapers in a rapidly consolidating industry.
The offer values Tribune shares at $12.25 each in cash, a 63% premium to their closing price Friday. Gannett said that when including the assumption of Tribune's debt, the deal has an overall value of $815 million.
Tribune, in a news release, said it told Gannett it would seek financial and legal advisers to assist it in reviewing Gannett's proposal. Tribune, which said it was still focused on its organizational changes, said it has started a review of Gannett's proposal and would "respond to Gannett as quickly as feasible."
A Tribune Publishing representative was unavailable for further comment Monday.
Gannett had said in its news release that it has been disappointed with Tribune Publishing's response to its proposal made April 12 and frustrated with its "refusal to begin constructive discussions with us."
A deal would tie household news outlets such as Gannett's USA Today and Tribune's Los Angeles Times under one firm, as newspaper companies have struggled in recent years, in part from disruptions caused by the Internet.
"A combination with Tribune would rapidly advance Gannett's strategy to grow the USA Today Network," Gannett Chairman John Jeffry Louis said in prepared remarks.
Shares of Tribune Publishing jumped 56% to $11.70 in premarket trading. Gannett shares were inactive.
Gannett's proposal comes amid a frenzy of newspaper industry deals, as bigger players look for the economic advantages of scale in a business under pressure on multiple fronts, and scout for bargain opportunities.
Gannett is already the largest publisher, with 12% of U.S. newspaper daily circulation, according to the Alliance for Audited Media. Digital First Media has 8%, News Corp has 6% and Tribune Publishing has 5%. Last year, 70 daily newspapers changed hands in 27 transactions for $827 million, the highest total for the industry since the 2008 economic crisis, according to data compiled by merger-and-acquisition adviser Dirks, Van Essen & Murray.
"The combined organization would offer Tribune employees a broad range of advancement opportunities within a larger organization with the financial strength to meet the industry challenges we all face," Gannett Chief Executive Robert J. Dickey said in a written statement.
Gannett said it can quickly consummate a transaction without any financing conditions and without threatening the tax-free treatment of Tribune's recent spinoff transaction.
Tribune Publishing was spun off in late 2014 as a separate company from broadcast holdings that became Tribune Media, less than two years after their predecessor company emerged from bankruptcy.
Since then, Tribune Publishing has struggled, with its stock price tumbling 69% since the spinoff, from $24.50 a share to $7.52 at market close on Friday. The company has reported declining year-over-year revenues in almost every quarter since the spinoff as it struggles with a sharp industrywide falloff in advertising dollars as readers and marketers migrate online.
Gannett, meanwhile, is considered one of the newspaper companies in the strongest position to hunt for acquisitions as struggling rivals look to exit. The company, whose assets include USA Today and 92 mostly medium- and small-market papers, also split off from its broadcast properties and signaled last year that it is in the market for acquisitions in markets with populations between one million and three million people.
Gannett's stock has risen roughly 5.4% to $15.77 since June 2015, when its publishing assets were spun off to form a debt-free publicly trading company, which kept the Gannett name.
Gannett's annual revenue last year slipped 9% to $2.89 billion, while Tribune's operating revenue fell about 2.1% to $1.67 billion in 2015.
For Tribune Publishing, the past several months have been especially turbulent.
Last summer, Tribune Publishing rejected overtures from philanthropist Eli Broad and private equity-firm Apollo Global Management to sell the Los Angeles Times, its largest revenue generator. The process led to the ugly firing of the paper's publisher, Austin Beutner, and elicited a letter from at least one major shareholder to the board urging it to break up the company or move to make it private.
Speculation about Tribune Publishing being in talks to sell itself was triggered in November, when Rupert Murdoch, executive chairman of News Corp and 21st Century Fox, said on Twitter that there was "strong word" Tribune Publishing was to be bought by a big Wall Street firm.
At the time it was reported that private-equity firm Apollo Global Management had approached Tribune Publishing about a sale. The Wall Street Journal reported that the bid didn't result in talks.
Representatives from News Corp—which owns The Wall Street Journal—and Apollo Global weren't immediately reachable for comment Monday.
In February Tribune Publishing's upper ranks went through a shake-up when a new investor provided a substantial cash infusion. Merrick Media LLC, which is owned by Chicago-based investor Michael W. Ferro Jr., paid $44.4 million for 16.6% of the company's shares, becoming the largest shareholder. Mr. Ferro became nonexecutive chairman, replacing Eddy Hartenstein.
Less than three weeks later, Jack Griffin departed as CEO and was replaced by Justin Dearborn, a longtime associate of Mr. Ferro who previously was chief executive of Merge Healthcare Inc., a health-records and imaging company that International Business Machines Inc. acquired. Mr. Griffin had been brought in as CEO of Tribune Publishing in 2014 to help orchestrate the publishing company's spinoff.

in Haiti, there is one doctor for every 4000 people....
and most Haitians would not be able to pay for medical treatment even if they could find someone willing to see them. Since 2014, Mt. Carmel Just Go Haiti medical teams have been bringing that care to the Jeremie and Chateau areas of Haiti. Doctors, Nurses, Nurse Practitioners, Pharmacists, Medical Techs and lay people come together to provide clinics for thousands of people desperate for the most basic medical care and make a difference in the lives of Haitians, showing the love of Jesus in a most tangible and meaningful way.
In 2018, construction was completed on the brand new Emmanuel Medical Clinic, located between the church and the dormitory at Emmanuel. The clinic is run by Haitians and is open year round providing continual medical care to a community that previously had none. Dr. Magdala Honore and her sisters, Ketura and Lea, both nurses, use the clinic to care for the Emmanuel children, the students at the Emmanuel school and people from the surrounding Chateau community.
emmanuel medical clinic
Dr. Magdala Honore and our medical teams keep a close eye on the Emmanuel children, providing vaccinations, medical care, basic dental care, and continued monitoring of their growth and general health. Dr. Jeff Fosnes and Nurse Practitioner Donna Hall are our Medical Directors and work with Dr. Magdala for the health of the Emmanuel children and oversee all of our medical teams.
medical clinics
Medical Clinics are set up anywhere, whether in a church, a school or just tents and tarps. Hundreds of people are seen each day and treated for everything from malnutrition to high blood pressure to cholera. Medical professionals from all over the country come together as a team and make an incredible difference in the Jeremie community.
dental clinics
The first ever Just Go Haiti Dental team went to Haiti in 2017. The team hosted a free clinic for the Chateau community (pulling lots of teeth that were long overdue), treated the Emmanuel children's teeth and provided preventative oral care - the first the children have ever received.

The article, "Efficacy and Safety of Non-Operative Treatment for Acute Uncomplicated Appendicitis: A Meta Analysis," will be published in the March 2017 issue of Pediatrics (published online Feb. 17). The authors reviewed existing literature published over the past 10 years that included 10 studies reporting on 413 children who received non-operative treatment rather than an appendectomy. No study reported any safety concern or specific adverse events related to non-surgical treatment, although the rate of recurrent appendicitis was 14 percent. The authors find a lack of robust evidence comparing non-operative treatment with surgery, but conclude that the data supports future research. The authors recommend that non-operative treatment for uncomplicated appendicitis be reserved for those participating in carefully designed research studies, preferably as large randomized trials.###The American Academy of Pediatrics is an organization of 66,000 primary care pediatricians, pediatric medical subspecialists and pediatric surgical specialists dedicated to the health, safety and well-being of infants, children, adolescents and young adults.

[Component] CForm v1.0
January 2, 2008 76 Comments
CForm is all about creating data entry screens. This component allows developers to create standardized forms/CRUD screens in their applications. The CForm component is a Data Entry component that can be very useful if –
- you are building business applications with many data entry/view screens
- you are working with a lot of developers. each handling separate screens/modules
- you wish all your screens to have the standard look & feel across the application
- you wish to avoid different developers/designers designing their own UI/UX paradigms for their specific screens
Let me try to explain this in a very simplified manner. CForm reads XML file to create user entry forms. To implement CForm, the following steps are involved.
- Developer creates XML file for each screen. The XML will contain the list of fields, controls to be used etc.
- CForm is called in an MXML.
- Now, the developer can use many of CForm's exposed methods to access/manipulate data in the CForm.
The Demo walks you through a few use cases of how CForm can be used in real world. There are clear instructions on each example in the demo. For a detailed documentation on the XML part of this component, check out here and for the AS and MXML angle check out below. The source code will also be made available shortly in a 2 or 3 weeks. As of now, if you need the source code you will have to check it out from the SVN repository at http://flexedtoolkit.googlecode.com/. If you like this component and would be willing to extend a helping hand, send me a mail 😉 .
If you have any questions/suggestions after viewing the demo, leave a comment on this page!!
**Update: Compiled SWC now available for download.
[ SWC | Demo | XML Documentation | Source of Example ]
CForm Properties
|The path of the xml file which contains the details of the controls
CForm Methods
|Clears the container of CForm. i.e. Removes the CForm from the container.
|Sets the values of obj to the CForm fields.
|Returns the renderer of the widget in field.
|creates CForm on the fly using the XML passed
|Fired when CForm completes loading all the fields
CForm internally uses extended versions of the standard flex widgets. The extended widgets implements a common single interface – CFormItemRenderer.The extended widgets have some preset properties like height, width, stylename etc. These constant values are picked from DefaultConfig class.
Using CForm
MXML code
<flexed:CForm id="cfrm"widgetsFile="controls.xml" cFormValidation="validateForm"verticalCenter="0″ verticalScrollPolicy="auto"
horizontalCenter="0″ horizontalScrollPolicy="off"
width="100%" height="100%"/>
AS Code
To set xml path and load CForm
str = "examples/cform/xmls/controls.xml";
cfrm.widgetsFile = str;cfrm.init();
To get data from CForm
obj = cfrm.getData(); // to get only modified values
obj = cfrm.getData(false); // to get all values
To reset CForm
To set data to CForm
var oDataToSet:Object = new Object();
oDataToSet.fname = "udayms";
oDataToSet.age = 27;
oDataToSet.gender = "male";
To access one field in the CForm and access properties of the widget
To create CForm on the fly using dynamic XML
cfrm.createCFormFromXML(new XML());
To Validate CForm using custom validation
// custom validation function
private function validateForm(id:String,
value:Object, values:Object):ValidationResult{
var result:ValidationResult = new ValidationResult(false);
if(id == "txtCoName"){
if(value == "" || value == null) result = new ValidationResult(true,null,"",
"You HAVE to enter a company name!");
return result; }
// do this to actually validate the
// CForm. Internally it
// will use validateForm() method.
I guess this covers most of the usecases. Anyway check out the demo. That should give pretty much a clear idea of what is possible with this component.

One of my favorite Christmas songs is O Holy Night. It evokes so much emotion in me that I struggle to make it through the song without crying. Read the words of the first verse:
O holy night! The stars are brightly shining, It is the night of our dear Savior's birth. Long lay the world in sin and error pining, 'Til He appeared and the soul felt its worth. A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices, For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn. Fall on your knees! O hear the angels' voices! O night divine, O night when Christ was born; O night divine, O night, O night divine.All of creation had been groaning under sin (Romans 8:22) for some 4,000 years when Jesus was born on earth. Because Adam disobeyed God in the Garden of Eden and ate from the tree of knowledge of good and evil, and because we are all descendants of Adam and Eve and born with a sin nature, Jesus Christ came to earth to pay for the price for our sins so we could be redeemed. Jesus is the "thrill of hope" that makes the "weary world rejoice"!
It truly is "a new and glorious morn" because with Jesus' birth and death and resurrection, the new covenant begins! This is why we should "fall on our knees" and rejoice with the angels because "Christ was born."
May God richly bless you all this Christmas season, and amid all the hustle and bustle may you remember the true reason for the season.

Burger King CEO to take Heinz reins after deal
Investment firms buying H.J. Heinz Co. made the first of what could be major changes coming to the Pittsburgh ketchup maker with the appointment Thursday of a CEO.
Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway and 3G Capital said Burger King CEO Bernardo Hees will replace longtime Heinz CEO William Johnson when the $28 billion buyout closes in the July-September quarter.
Hees, 43, has led Burger King since 2010, when 3G Capital bought the fast-food chain. He is credited with turning around the Miami-based company by slashing costs, revamping the chain's menu and starting a marketing campaign intended to help it pose a greater threat to rival McDonald's.
Whether a similar shakeup is in store for Heinz remains a matter of speculation. Hees is a partner in 3G, the managing partner in the Heinz deal. The firm has a history of aggressive cost-cutting and overhauling at companies it buys.
Yet Jack Russo, an analyst with Edward Jones in St. Louis, said he doesn't expect big changes at Heinz, in part because of the work Johnson did to make the company a global success in the 15 years since he became CEO in 1998.
"He's really taken this company to a higher level," Russo said.
Johnson joined the company in 1982 and is in line to walk away with a $212.7 million severance package, one of the richest ever awarded an American executive.
When the buyout was announced in February, Johnson said he wasn't ready to retire. He is scheduled to discuss his future with 3G leaders after an April 30 shareholder vote, according to a statement from Berkshire and 3G.
Johnson was not available to comment, Heinz spokesman Michael Mullen said.
Hees could not be reached. He said in a statement that he is excited to move to Pittsburgh and looks forward to "working in close partnership with the company's senior management, employees and customers to strengthen the business both domestically and internationally."
Russo said 3G would be wise to find a way to keep Johnson, even in a consulting role.
"They would be very smart to lock him up somehow," he said.
But Johnson, 64, might not want to stay if he's not in charge, Russo said. "He may want more of an active involvement in whatever he is doing."
Berkshire and 3G have pledged to keep Heinz headquarters in Pittsburgh. Alex Behring, 3G managing partner, said in February that the acquisition differed from the investment firm's other deals because Heinz is a healthy company with market-leading products across the globe.
The investors plan to accelerate Heinz's growth, possibly through acquisitions, which could benefit the headquarters operations in Pittsburgh.
Hees, a Brazilian who ran the largest railroad and logistics company in Brazil before Burger King, oversaw radical changes during his tenure at the burger chain.
At the company's headquarters in Miami, for example, he eliminated executive offices in favor of open spaces. Hees sits at a desk outside the elevators on the seventh floor, appearing almost like a receptionist, flanked by his executive lieutenants.
A big board in front of their desks is updated with daily reports on sales and customer traffic, globally and by region. Executives, including Hees, have color-coded boards by their desks displaying their annual goals. The idea is that everyone in the company can see others' goals.
"Bernardo is a proven executive with an unparalleled track record of delivering results," Behring said in a statement. "His combination of experience, leadership skills and broad understanding of the food industry make him the ideal leader to drive the next chapter in Heinz's storied history."
Behring was not available to comment, 3G said.

Lion-woman in the foreground, Bird-man in the background. Wat-Phra Kaew in Bangkok, Thailand. Photo by Manfred Werner.
Aedgar's voice is written like this.
Isla's voice is written this way.
I can feel there is another question.
There is. Brianna, my 7-year-old daughter, had a visit from someone. Do you know about this?
Umm, yeah. She started speaking like you at the dinner table.
Like me?
I feel quite flattered by that.
And I know that Nerida talked to her friend about it and they said it was okay. I just wanted to make sure that she was okay.
It is someone (unfortunately not me) but, it would be someone that she's known for a very long time.
She could go and astral travel, because she would feel perfectly safe.
She talks about —
There are actually two more.
Two more?
She talks about them as if they're perfectly normal and her friends.
Well, if they make you feel safe, what's wrong about it?
She can talk to them about things you've got no idea about, my dear.
Oh [Laughs a little nervously].
And I'm pretty sure, you would not want to know.
She is perfectly safe.
But, yes, unfortunately, it was not me. We go for (what we call) a perfect match. It has to do with the amount of energy, the amount of power that we have. You would need to be strong to be able to handle the energy.
So, her friends are adjusted to her energy. She's got more energy than you think, but in a small frame.
She seems to have just come out of a bit of a mental spurt, if you understand me.
We wouldn't call it that.
What would you call it?
An experience.
It was a quite exciting experience for her. It made her quite happy, my dear.
She has known them for a very long time: all three of them. It's mainly one coming through at the moment. But there are two others — similar energy. One of them is a bit — spontaneous. It's a bit like, 'You need to get rid of that energy right now!' [snaps Marie's fingers].
It makes you feel as if, that one might kind of jump at you. It's just to settle some things down a bit. They do help a lot — in an entertaining way for her. Do you understand?
Yes. It's good.
She would never accept anything like it from you or anyone else — it helps her grow. It's a kind of advice that she would not be open to accepting from anyone else, not even from you, my dear.
So it it quite good that these friends are around.
Will they stay around? She's known them for a long time. Will they stay through this life?
They will always been around. They have been around in previous lifetimes, too. They're guardians. But it will be less frequent that they are around. She will still feel them at some stages, even as a grown-up person, in some (as you might say) situations that could end up in a quick learning experience.
They will make her feel safe. She won't remember why. But, they are around to make her feel safe.
Some people might call them 'guardian angels'. We don't talk this way. But, whichever idea makes you familiar with the concept or give you a better understanding of it, whichever terms you use, you will be fine.
We don't have a dispute with you about 'guardian angels' you know.
We call them guides; call them spirit guides.
Humans have this funny idea of these creatures: same size or smaller and cuter with little wings on their backs.
It's because humans think you would need wings to fly around or to go for astral travel. It makes it easier to think about that, to imagine, you know, some living being. Even if it's ethereal — that it's got wings to get around.
They actually don't (that was just a little hint). Some of them are not as pretty as you might think.
Because they have a purpose. They have, you could say, a job to do. And it's not about physical expression on their face or a strong body or a pretty face. Or, of course, these wings.
You might consider some of them — from physical experience, looking at them — almost ugly, because they don't match with the time you're in now.
But they have, of course, what you'd call a good heart.
You know that 'heart' is not where spirit and soul lives.
It's just how it's used in the time you live in now — that someone has a good heart. For us, it's just a device to get the liquids through your body.
Do you understand?
[Smiling] Yeah. Thanks Aedgar.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has called liberation of Aleppo a major step towards normalization of the situation in Syria and in the region on the whole, as well as marked a decisive role of Russian military in the operation in Aleppo.
"Liberation of Aleppo from radical elements is an essential component of a full normalization in Syria, and I hope in the region on the whole," he said at a meeting with Defense Minister Sergey Shoigu.
"And this operation, certainly, there is no doubt about it, ended with a direct participation - if not to say a decisive participation and influence of our military, especially in its final part, concerning the humanitarian operation," he said.
The president went on to say that efforts to broker a final truce in Syria will be continued by all interested sides, with the Syrian government, Iran and Turkey among them.
"We and our colleagues from Iran and Turkey, and of course the Syrian leadership, alongside other regional nations, or all the interested states, should continue the work to reach a final truce," Putin said at a meeting with Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu.
The president emphasized that "everything possible should be done so that combat activities can be halted within Syria."
"Anyhow, we will strive towards this," he added.

Love Your Photos!
Clothing Tips, Styling Tricks
When everybody is wearing blue polo shirts and khaki pants on the beach, you can end up looking more like a bowling league than a family! Pictures are supposed to be of PEOPLE not uniforms, so don't be afraid to express yourself. When trying to figure out what to wear for a shoot, sometimes it helps to choose a basic color palette and go from there. It is also often best when there is only one or maybe 2 "rock stars" to serve as visual accents to everyone else's more neutral tones. You don't want an explosion of patterns all vying for the viewer's eye; on the other hand, life without rock stars can seem kind of hum-drum! Strike a balance between the two! Making use of accent colors can be a great way to give a nice cohesive look. For example, let's say big sister has a patterned dress with coral, gray, and splashes of blue, mom could have a coral sweater or flower in the hair, little brother could be in turquoise sneakers and a bow tie, while dad has on a light blue shirt or a gray vest.
Coordinate, complement, but don't match....
Children's pure and natural exuberance can pretty much carry any picture by itself. Kids are natural-born rock stars, with an inherent understanding of their own "Bigness." The subject and his or her personality should always come first. Accessories and "outfits" are really just bonus material.
That said, the boys' khaki shorts and checked shirts pull them together, visually, but the different and complementary colors let them shine as individuals. Meanwhile big sister's dress provides a single pop of color and contrast to tie the whole thing together! With Mom, they look like a delicious fruity cocktail!
Since girls' clothing is often the more flamboyant, it sometimes helps to start with the girl's/woman's outfit and work out from there. If there are only boys, start with the kids' outfits and plan the parents' clothing around them.
A Color Palette
...of browns and blues with warm cognac accents in Mom's boots and scarf. The stripes in Mom's scarf also pick up the stripes in the boys' sweaters, while Dad's neutral tones provide a terrific canvas for the whole.
Don't Be Afraid to Accessorize!
Scarves, hats, flowers in the hair for girls; jewelry, sweaters, vests, jackets; interesting or colorful shoes; a funky belt buckle.... All of these things can make an outfit, and a picture as a whole, go from so-so to so GREAT.
Here, matching rain boots, a handsome driver's cap - and let's not forget a jaunty little stance - give this picture just the right amount of cohesion as well as a lot of visual interest.
Warm neutrals here are broken up by a funky belt buckle. Not only does the color tickle our peripheral vision, but it also picks up the color in her lips and cheeks, while the shine picks up the sparkle in her eyes and smile.
Remember!! Accessories aren't just for looks!
Of course, ear muffs or a cute topper are ALWAYS fun! But "accessories" can also be nice little ice breakers, giving you or a child something to interact with besides the camera, and helping to make everyone feel more relaxed.
A couple of pine cones, a camera, lollipops, pastries, a magnifying glass, and a beach ball have all gotten these kids right into the ZONE.
They are definitely ready for their close-up!
Accessories also help say something about yourself - either as an individual (for highschool seniors) or as a professional who offers specific services to clients that you want to highlight in various forms of media.
Here we have a vocalist by night, music teacher by day; a business coach; a yoga instructor/DoTerra Essential Oils Educator; a health and wellness coach; and a budding young writer, all using their "tools of the trade" to best photographic advantage.
Baby it's Cold Outside!
Some shoots get nippy! Bring layers that can be thrown on and off as needed, and accessories like hats, mittens, gloves, or even hot drinks that can serve double -duty: they keep you warm AND provide great visual interest. Late fall and winter shoots can be some of the most beautiful of the year. You just have to embrace it!
Guys! Accessories aren't just for girls! That said, don't overthink it. These pictures are supposed to be of you, so just be your (best) self!
Wear what makes you feel like your best self - what you would wear to meet a new client or to an important meeting/interview. My pictures will capture the great vibe you have as a professional. Small items can have a big effect. Need some ideas?? These are all great accessories for men, but don't be afraid to find/choose your own. What's YOUR stock in trade?
a necklace
funky shoes
chunky belt buckle
sun glasses
a hat
t-shirt with unique messaging
bow tie
pocket squares
interesting tie clip
cool pair of glasses
magic tricks (if you do them!): cards, coins, balls, scarves, rings, you name it...!
The Best Pictures Focus on the HUMANITY of a MOMENT.
Ultimately, for families and couples, you should choose clothes that you love to see your children in, and clothes for you and your partner that make you feel comfortable, attractive, and "ready for your close-up." No need to "dress up" or "dress down." My pictures will capture the fun and love that you have as a family or as a couple; in the end, no one will even notice the rest.
For professionals: my best advice is to choose clothes you would meet your best client in and that make you feel confident when you look in the mirror. If you feel like a million bucks, you will look like a million bucks. Don't get caught up in the details of what you're wearing. Follow the feeling you get when you look in the mirror. The FEELING will guide you.

Although, historically, sexual intercourse within marriage was regarded as a right of spouses, engaging in the act without the spouse's consent is now widely recognized by law and society as a wrong and as a crime.It is recognized as rape by many societies around the world, repudiated by international conventions, and increasingly criminalized.Marital rape (or spousal rape) is the act of sexual intercourse with one's spouse without the spouse's consent.
Following this logic, if consent is not part of marriage, then it is not necessary for intercourse.
The autonomy of the wife is also often compromised in cultures where bride price is paid.
This view was described by Sir Matthew Hale (1609-1676) in History of the Pleas of the Crown, published posthumously in 1736, where he wrote that "The husband cannot be guilty of a rape committed by himself upon his lawful wife, for by their mutual consent and contract the wife hath given up herself in this kind unto her husband, which she cannot retract"." Also, American and English law subscribed until the 20th century to the system of coverture, that is, a legal doctrine under which, upon marriage, a woman's legal rights were subsumed by those of her husband. 455 (1981), a United States Supreme Court case in which the Court held a Louisiana Head and Master law, which gave sole control of marital property to the husband, unconstitutional.
In the US, the wife's legal subordination to her husband was fully ended by the case of Kirchberg v. English common law also had a great impact on many legal systems of the world through colonialism. Marriage was traditionally understood as an institution where a husband had control over his wife's life; control over her sexuality was only a part of the greater control that he had in all other areas concerning her.
A husband's control over his wife's body could also be seen in the way adultery between a wife and another man was constructed; for example in 1707, English Lord Chief Justice John Holt described the act of a man having sexual relations with another man's wife as "the highest invasion of property".
For this reason, in many cultures there was a conflation between the crimes of rape and adultery, since both were seen and understood as a violation of the rights of the husband.
In some cultures, marriage is arranged for the purpose of creating access to procreation (Yllö, 2016).
In these situations, the parties do not necessarily consent to marriage (in the case of forced marriage) (Yllö, 2016).
This was illustrated most vividly by Sir Matthew Hale, (1609-1676), in his legal treatise Historia Placitorum Coronæ or History of the Pleas of the Crown (posthumously, 1736) where he wrote that "The husband cannot be guilty of a rape committed by himself upon his lawful wife, for by their mutual consent and contract the wife hath given up herself in this kind unto her husband, which she cannot retract." Sir Matthew Hale's statement in History of the Pleas of the Crown did not cite any legal precedent though it likely relied on earlier standards.
In a case of Lord Audley's (1488-1544), for instance, his citation of the jurist Bracton (c. 1268) supports this rule, said to have derived from laws of King Æthelstan (r.
Rape as a crime was constructed as a property crime against a father or husband not as a crime against the woman's right to self-determination.

Have you ever tried to make a card and just couldn't get it to work out the way you wanted? That is what happened to me in the process of making this black and pink Christmas card! I made two different cards I didn't like and ended up using a sketch at Clean & Simple Stamping.
Amazing how finding the right layout can help you to like your card! Granted, I didn't like it enough to enter it into the pink and black Christmas challenge I was originally making it for, but I still like it okay!
It's hard to tell from the pic, but the small circles are covered in Crystal Effects and popped up on Dimensionals. If you are using Crystal Effects on your project, make sure you let it dry overnight so it doesn't ruin your card!

Cardstock: Basic Black, Pink Pirouette, Pretty in Pink
Ink: Basic Black, Pink Pirouette, Pretty in Pink

As you continue to get older, the risk of losing your teeth increases. However, aging and tooth loss do not necessarily have to go together. In fact, it is usually other factors that contribute more to tooth loss rather than aging alone. This factor which basically involves bad lifestyle habits and maintaining a healthy dental hygiene need to be steered clear of if you want to prevent tooth loss. Some of these preventive measures that can protect you against tooth loss:
1. Stop Smoking
Smokers are twice more likely to suffer tooth loss than non-smokers. Smoking and other forms of tobacco use pose a great risk of developing periodontal disease, which is a leading cause of tooth loss. Smoking affects the blood supply to your gums and surrounding bone structure and can make the symptoms of periodontal disease more severe.
2. Manage existing health conditions
It is a known fact that diabetes can damage the eyes, nerves, kidneys and the heart. The teeth and gums are also affected by diabetes as well. Since it reduces the body's immunity and healing abilities, gum disease can occur much more frequently in people who have diabetes. This results to a higher rate of tooth loss. Also in addition, another deadly health condition which is a risk factor for gum disease and this tooth loss is high blood pressure.
3. Treat cavities early
Cavities form from interaction between the bacteria in your mouth and sugars such as the ones found in soda and sweets. This interaction promoted acid production that causes demineralization of the enamel. Cavities can be salvaged through restorative treatment such as demineralization. If the decay is yet to reach the pulp or nerve, the dentist will remove the decay and cover the hole with a resin composite or amalgam filling. However, if the decay has spread to the pulp or nerve, a root canal or pulp capping procedure will be required. It is important to consult the doctor once you notice symptoms of cavities.
4. Brush and floss daily
The importance of brushing and flossing daily cannot be overemphasized. Brush twice daily and floss at least once daily to remove acid-producing bacteria that cause cavities, erode enamel and cause periodontal disease.
5. Eat properly
Eating disorders like bulimia and anorexia can cause tooth damage and loss. When your diet lacks certain kinds of nutrient like calcium for instance, this can increase your risk of tooth loss. Foods and beverages with high in sugar, carbohydrates and acids can damage your teeth and gums.
6. Protect teeth from trauma
Injury or trauma to the mouth may cause tooth to fall off instantly or cause tooth fractures that will eventually lead to the tooth loss either due to infection or weakening of the tooth. Wearing a mouth guard in contact sports can help protect the teeth against injury.
7. Correct structural issues
It can be difficult to thoroughly clean misaligned teeth. These make them prone to tartar and buildup of plaque which cause periodontal problems that leads to tooth loss.
8. Have regular dental checkups
It is very important to visit your dentist at least once in every six months. Even with good home oral hygiene practices, skipping dental check-ups may cause early signs of tooth loss to go unnoticed. Early detection allows treatment and correction of dental problems long before they cause tooth loss.
As we plan towards another year, this is the right time to start planning for a dental check up. Contact us to schedule a visit and keep your teeth healthy and strong for the next year and years to come.

Yellow king comforter set – Place of relaxation and appeasement par excellence, the room has recently been the object of all the attention in terms of decoration to be the most welcoming possible. Unlike the quilt or bed throw, the bed cover (or bed cover) must completely cover the bed. We must first know the dimensions to prevent it being too small or too large. With the trend of cocooning, linen manufacturers have developed many models of bedspreads, suitable for all styles and all beds.
For double beds, just check that the proposed model corresponds to yours (140×220, 160×200 or 180×200). For larger beds, it will be simpler but also more expensive to turn to a bespoke model. To be sure of the size, simply measure the height of the bed, multiply by 2 and add the size of the mattress.
The bedspread is not only used to protect the bed and sheets. It is also a decorative element of the room. As such, it should be chosen carefully, in harmony with the atmosphere and furniture of the room. A satiny or silky fabric brings a touch of feminine pleasure to the decor. For more rustic environments, the boutis (quilted textile slightly quilted and sometimes embroidered) will be perfect.

Replacement Drawer Slides
Just contemplating the idea of how to install drawer slides is sometimes intimidating, but it is actually a fairly simple job. You can accomplish the task at hand in just a few minutes of your time.
|Learn How to Install Replacement Drawer Slides in Five Easy Steps
What You Need
- A screw driver or drill complete with a drill bit that fits the size of the screws in your project.
- New drawer slides to fit your drawer and cabinet.
- Screws
What You Do
Step # 1:
Remove the old drawer slides. There are usually screws on the inside that hold the slides to the cabinet. Start by removing the front screws. This can be tiring when you use a traditional screwdriver so you may want to use an electric drill if there is enough room for you to get the tool in the space.
|Remove the Old Drawer Slides
Step #2:
Next, remove the screws from the back bracket if there is one (not all drawer glides come with a back bracket). Some are applied to the backboard in the same way as they are screwed into the front. If the glide has a back bracket, this is another reason to remove the front screws first, as this makes it easier to remove the entire thing, allowing you to pull it forward when the time is right.
|Remove the Screws from the Back Bracket
Step #3:
Now that you have the cabinet glides removed, remove the glides attached to the drawer by removing all of the screws one by one. When you have them all removed, the glide should come off easily.
|Removing Screws One by One
Step #4:
Now that you have removed all of the old hardware, it is fairly simple to replace it with new pieces. Place the new hardware on the drawer section and look to see if the holes in the new hardware match the old holes. If they do not match, you will need to drill small pilot holes in order to start the screws. Screw the new glide into place, making sure to include all of the screws. An improperly screwed glide could come loose or even fall off and send you right back to where you started from.
|Place New Hardware on Drawer Section
This should only take a few minutes if you pre-drill your holes. Be sure not to use a bit that is too large or your screws will not hold well.
- Tip: You can use self-starting screws if you have the muscle to force the screws into the wood. This method is sometimes not worth the risk if the wood is prone to splitting.
Step #5
Replace the inside cabinet glide with the new pieces. Begin in reverse order by screwing in the back screws. Be sure to include all of the screws as this is a vital pressure point in the assembly.
|Replace Inside Cabinet Glide with New Pieces
- Tip #1: These screws are sometimes in a difficult area to reach. You may want to use a magnetized screwdriver or driver bits for your drill. This can save you a ton of headaches as the screws tend to get lost during jobs like this.
- Tip # 2: A flashlight would be handy in a spot like this, but it is difficult to hold one. You may want to try a head lamp like the ones found in the sporting goods section of department stores. These are lifesaving devices as they free up your hands.
Now it is time to try out your new drawer. Does it slide in properly? If not, then you need to troubleshoot the problem.
|Try Out Your New Drawer
- Did you position the glides correctly onto the drawer sides? If not, then you will have to reposition the glides. This may mean drilling new holes and redoing things, but it is worth the effort.
- Are the cabinet brackets flush with the starting point of the old set? This is a common mistake. The new brackets may be a tiny bit shorter or longer than the old ones making the flush point different. If they are too long, you will have to return them and get a different size.
- Is there a gap at the top of the drawer where it meets the cabinet that was not there before? This is uncommon, but it could mean the old glides were of a different thickness than the new ones. The difference would have to be huge in order to give you this kind of result.
If there is a difference in the old glides you removed and the new ones you installed, you may have to revert back to the old style or take the old ones with you and purchase a different set. Rarely is the difference in glides so severe that you would have to go to such great lengths to have a perfect drawer.

text: Just got my 30 Gibbs back from the gunsmith. Was thinking between the AI and the Gibbs. Went with the Gibbs because of higher case capacity and it is a "named" wildcat. Performance is very close to the same for either. Out of a 30" barrel I would expect either improved cases to be 200 to 300fps over a conventional 25-06 and 100gr bullets. The Gibbs has a 0.25" neck and a 40deg shoulder. The AI can be a variety of dimensions so you will have to see what reamer your gunsmith has. Either should feed the same (good or bad). The AI will have a slightly longer neck for what that's worth. AI should be able to use 25-06 ammo if necessary. The Gibbs will need to be fireformed properly (shoulder moved forward). Performance between the two are very similar with the Gibbs possibly being faster. Both should be equally accurate..or not. H4831SC, IMR7828, Re22 and Retumbo should be great powders. Enjoy burning out your throat... Jerry

By the time with the National Conference you read this journal, the regulations may well have and Exposition. The Association been signed and the levy imposed on all community of Residential Communities (ARC) schemes. is very proud to be able to continue adding value to all ARC and the members that we have consulted with member communities – and, in are not opposed to the notion of dispute resolution. fact, to all communities, large However, we are opposed to any legislation that and small, whether current ARC removes the rights of an HOA to self-govern, and we members or not. are opposed to being confronted with a forced levy During 2015 and early 2016 much has been reported on the rights of a homeowners' association (HOA) to determine rules for its community, rights given to us by our Memorandum of Incorporation (MOI) or constitution. Members often question whether we have such rights, and whether a given rule is fair. Certain rules attract more debate than others, for instance when it is suggested that an HOA is acting outside its mandate by enforcing rules that form part of other pieces of legislation such as the National Road Traffic Act. More often than not, when a breach is reported and a penalty imposed the matter is concluded effectively, but in some cases members are prepared to seek legal intervention and go to court on a matter. Rules are there to regulate conduct between neighbours and must not necessarily be restrictive but rather take where the current governing documents of the HOA already include dispute resolution processes. (For more detail on the functions of the ombud [CSOS] refer to page 34). The Act will create a new landscape on governance, and all communities are urged to ensure that their internal dispute resolution processes are sound. ARC has formed many new and exciting partnerships with experts in the industry. The issue of water management, especially relating to the quality of water, the storage of emergency water and water saving, is top of mind in our communities.
