Gaming Lobby Debates Lynch as Obama's Pick for Attorney General
- January 28, 2015 By Oliver Young -
Loretta Lynch was nominated by the President Obama to replace Eric Holder as the General Attorney.
The American Gaming Association, the gaming industry Capitol Hill's leading lobby group, is entering the debate over President Obama's decision to pick Loretta Lynch as the new Attorney General. The group is constantly trying to pass a federal crackdown on illegal gambling and its highest priority is protection of the fast growing gaming industry in the United States.
Geoff Freeman, who is the AGA's president, wrote a letter to the members of the Senate Judiciary Committee urging them to ensure that the next attorney general would take very seriously the problem of illegal gambling activities across the USA.
Loretta Lynch was nominated by the President Barak Obama to replace Eric Holder, who is stepping down. The long-time Attorney General Holder will leave the place to Lynch who is currently a New York federal prosecutor. The hearings for Lynch's confirmation are expected to start this Wednesday and it is not sure whether she will get the confirmation in the Senate, which is controlled by the Republicans.
According To the AGA the Current Law Is Failing
The American Gaming Association believes that the current law is failing to protect the market. The one to give this statement was Chris Moyer who is the association's spokesperson. He also added that the group was not advocating for legislation yet, but he pointed out that the gaming market is huge and changes are needed as soon as possible.
One of the biggest problems in the USA is the sports betting which is only allowed to a limited extent in several states and fully legalized in Nevada. Adam Silver, the NBA Commissioner, has already called for legalizing sports betting across the country, whereas the AGA is still not sure whether the group should ask for legalization or stronger enforcement.
With the Super Bowl on the doorsteps, the association was busy highlighting the concerns it has about the status of illegal sports betting. According to their information, lots of people will place illegal bets whose total amount could be $3.8 billion, which is much higher than the expected Nevada's legal betting of "only" $100 million.
The Association Has Pulled Its Support for Online Gambling
All of these actions by the AGA are part of its aggressive campaign to change people's negative views on the gambling impact on the society. However, the group disappointed many online players when it announced withdrawing its official endorsement for online gambling.
In May, 2014, it was the group's chief executive Geoff Freeman who said that online gambling was an issue which couldn't be led on by the association. As one of the reasons for their decision was the disagreement among major casinos such as MGM and Caesars which are advocates for legalisation and Las Vegas Sands, the biggest enemy of internet gaming.
Before pulling its support for legalisation of online casinos in the USA, the AGA had submitted a written testimony to the US Congress in favour of iGaming. One of the strongest arguments then presented by the group was that "online gaming is here to stay."

MARSHALL, Texas—The third season is here for Liberty-Eylau on the hardwood.
The Lady Leopards (18-11) take on Kilgore (15-8) at 7 tonight in the Class 4A bi-district round of the basketball playoffs at Ornelas Gym on the campus of East Texas Baptist University.
"I've stressed to our girls all season about this moment," Liberty-Eylau head coach Aquanetta Watson said. "I told there are three seasons during the course of the year: the preseason, district play and the playoffs. We've been having some really good practices and I think they're ready.
"We played a really tough preseason schedule to prepare ourselves for the playoffs. Everyone is 0-0 and ready to show off what they have. Nothing else matters but what we do going forward."
The Leopards fell to the Lady Bulldogs earlier this season, 42-35, but L-E has caught its stride as of late, winning three out of its last five games to end the season.
Watson also believes her squad has found its identity throughout the season and she will continue to use her strategy of substituting in waves during the playoffs.
"There are certain points in the game where I'll substitute like that," Watson said. "When we're trying to put pressure on the defense or force a turnover is when I will substitute in waves. It keeps the girls fresh and it also keeps them energized. It's worked a lot for us this season, so we have to keep going with what has brought us to this point. "
The Leopards are at full strength now, which will be another key component in the rematch with Kilgore.
"Earlier this season when we played, we were missing two starters", Watson said. "I think we've gotten better as a team and more mature. I think a team's maturity helps getting better with basketball. Playing them once this season and seeing what they have, hopefully will work to our advantage the second time around."
The winner will face either Canton or Caddo Mills in the area round.

Because people nowadays have tight timetables because of their works, it has ended up being troublesome for them to clean their office. Contracting commercial cleaning expert has become into a requirement for most business owners so they can get to save time. Since the market has countless companies to choose from, it is hard to pick the best expert to hire. You need to pick the best commercial cleaning expert to contract and you can do this by considering different factors.
Knowing whether the commercial cleaning company is licensed is the other key thing that you need to put as a priority when making your choice. There is a high chance that you will get low quality services when you get a commercial cleaning that does not have a license. Firms that own licenses means that they have met the prerequisites set by the state and they have the capacity of offering services that are of high quality. There is a little probability that your commercial property can end up getting damaged when you hire an organization that is licensed. You need to ask whether they have insurance before you hire them. So that you protect yourself from obligation, you need to ensure that you hire an organization that is insured. If the association has insurance and they end up destroying your property, they will offer you compensation.
Factoring the cleaning product used by the company can help you to recognize the best company that you can hire. It is similarly fundamental to know whether you will be the one offering the cleaning products or if the association will buy their own. You must pick an association that uses cleaning products that are safe to the environment and furthermore safe for you and your employees.
The responsiveness of this company is the other essential thing that you need to look at when making your selection. For you to know whether that association is reliable or not, ensure that you consider how responsive they are. It is essential to factor the ease of contacting the association when you enlist them. It is fundamental to get a commercial cleaning company that you can call any time in light of the fact that they will come when you require services. Make without question that you ask the association a couple of questions so you can know how responsive they are and in case you can rely upon them.


The Sonoma County Library urges all residents to join in this year's selection for "Sonoma County Reads"—Octavia Butler's 'Kindred,' or 'Parentesco' in Spanish. The 2018 community read began in Oct, and continues into Dec., with book discussion events and multiple copies of the book available at your local library branch.
Butler's book is a tale of Dana, a modern black woman who suddenly transports via time-travel from her home in Los Angeles to a pre-Civil War Maryland plantation.
Since 2003, the Sonoma County Library has brought a county-wide "community read" program to the residents of Sonoma County. The goal is to foster a common culture through reading a common title, to open avenues of conversation, and to encourage reading. The program is a community effort, and the Library's partners include Sonoma State University and Santa Rosa Junior College.

Covenant marriage was back in the news recently, when Jill Duggar of 19 Kids and Counting marriedDerick Dillard in Bentonville, Arkansas. The couple is now expecting their first child. Jill's sister, Jessa Duggar, recently married Ben Seewald. That ceremony was notable because of a celebrity appearance by actor Kirk Cameron and the couple's decision to forego the traditional first kiss at the altar.
Ms. Duggar and Mr. Dillard entered into a covenant marriage. According to advocates, this arrangement signals the couple's commitment to a lifelong marriage.
The roots of the modern covenant marriage movement go back to 1968, when then-Governor Ronald Reagan signed California's no-fault divorce law. Within just a few years most other states followed suit. The divorce rate skyrocketed in the 1970s and 1980s, but began to level off thereafter. When the covenant marriage discussion began in the 1990s, the divorce rate was still about twice as high as it had been prior to 1970.
No-Fault Divorce: The parties essentially agree to waive their right to an uncontested divorce in the future.
Premarital Counseling: The new husband and wife agree to meet with an approved family counsellor prior to marriage.
Certificate: The marriage license may require an additional witness and may contain verbiage stating that the couple will divorce only as a last resort.
Currently, only Arkansas, Louisiana, and Arizona recognize covenant marriage. Fifteen other states debated the measure but did not enact it.
Illinois has never considered covenant marriage, and probably never will. Despite a groundswell of support for the concept, covenant marriage never really took off. By the late 1990s, the divorce rate had started to decline, so the issue was no longer the political hot-button that it had been previously.
We live in an imperfect world, and many marriages do not last forever. If you need an experienced DuPage County family law attorney, contact Mulyk Laho Law, LLC.

The Next Titan is a Nigerian entrepreneurial reality TV show, the foremost in Nigeria and currently in its 9th season. The show has hosted several thousands of young entrepreneurs across the country through its regional auditions. Aside from Season 8 when its auditions were held in six cities, the remaining seasons including Season 9 followed the format of four audition cities.

The Next Titan was created by a Nigerian entrepreneur, Mide Akinlaja and the first season premiered in 2013. Usually, Sixteen to Eighteen contestants are picked after regional auditions and subsequent Bootcamp; and the eighteen contestants would live together for either 10 weeks or 13 weeks in the same house called The Titan House. The contestants are made to perform different business tasks as teams, and at least one contestant is evicted weekly from the losing team.

The Business Reality TV show brings together young aspiring entrepreneurs from all walks of life where they out-compete and battle one another in the hope of winning a cash prize to launch their dream business, or to support existing one. At each episode or weekly, the entrepreneurs are tasked with practical business challenges and the contestants are eliminated one by one until the final week where the winner would receive a cash prize to start his or her business venture. The Grand prize has increased over time from Five Million Naira to the current Twenty Million Naira and with additional Five Million Naira consolation prizes for the runners up.

Past Seasons and Winners

The Process
Eligible Nigerians (21-40 years old graduates) with inspiring, impactful, and scalable business ideas are invited to participate by sending their entries for auditions. Candidates are chosen from entries, for presentations of their business ideas through auditions, and thereafter shortlisted to the Top 50 nationwide for Boot Camp.

On the evening of the last day of the Boot Camp, 16 or 18 most creative and innovative with best business ideas that will make it to the Titan House are unveiled before the audience/guests during the Premiere/Gala evening of the show, before moving into the Titan House to compete for the main reality show and TV knock-out stages.

The 18 contestants are weekly divided into two groups and are given weekly business tasks that help them awaken their creativity and tenacity. In an interesting twist, a contestant from the losing group gets evicted on weekly basis by the judges in the boardroom.

The Winner would emerge at the audience participating grand finale show and would walk off with a grand prize to start or support his/her business.

SUEZ is proposing to expand the Elizabeth Drive Landfill at Kemps Creek, Sydney.
Why do we need to expand the landfill?
The Elizabeth Drive Landfill plays an important role in Sydney's waste disposal network. Sydney's population is growing, and Elizabeth Drive Landfill needs to expand to cater for the anticipated increase in waste generation.
There are also several large infrastructure projects in the area that will create more general construction and demolition waste, and Elizabeth Drive Landfill is one of the few sites in the Sydney Basin that can receive this type of waste.
SUEZ is currently preparing an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the proposal.
What does the proposal involve?
The current height of the Elizabeth Drive Landfill would increase by up to 15 metres, with a capacity increase of approximately approx. 5 million cubic metres. The project does not involve any changes to the existing cell design, cap design or waste disposal methods including operations and environmental management of the site. This proposed increase would provide an additional landfill airspace capacity of approximately approx. 5 million cubic metres and extend the life of the landfill by approximately 6 years (to 2030).
What environmental approvals will we go through?
• heritage, including Aboriginal heritage.
The EIS will be placed on public display for comment in late 2018 or early 2019 by the Department of Planning and Environment. Approval from the Sydney Western City Planning Panel is required following public exhibition before SUEZ can proceed with construction of the project.
How can I provide my feedback?

The profile of education in the 21st century is going to be very different from previous models. Both institutional leaders and academics are aiming to redefine the role of higher education and invest on a large scale in new learning technologies. Consequently, higher education is expected to be a much broader enterprise in the future. Peer to peer and on-line learning is gaining a firm foothold in academia. Institutions, by following market trends, will be inclined to focus on livelihood-related programs; enabling students to graduate with diplomas that provide the prospect of sustainable earnings indicating the greatest developmental challenge facing educational environments today. There seems to be an agreement among professionals that research, self-organization, creativity, cross-disciplinary practice, community driven professional development, break-through partnerships and a balance between experience and innovation, are the key elements that will form a new equilibrium, a new educational ecology.
Methodology: International and regional local presenters involved in new trends/models of education, to present and discuss with participatory involvement how the radical shifts internationalization in higher education became widespread and how the learning environment became completely altered. It is important to emphasize that the explosion of this new ecology has not been pre-planned; it is mainly due to a tremendous interest by the emerging generation, whose daily reality has profoundly changed and is often in conflict with, rigid, out dated educational concepts.
A discussion on the inclusion of practice-based peer-to-per models involving academia is especially essential, because limited funding, escalating class sizes and threatened course closures continue to be a serious challenge to effective training. In an era of fast technological growth and transforming art forms there is an increasing need for educational flexibility by academic institutions. In most countries, regardless of the level of economic development, policy makers have been compelled to review and reorganize their abilities for an analysis of high-level knowledge that profiles social change.

The handling of raw fish at three New York City Chinatown markets has led to an outbreak of a rare skin infection.
The city's health department has identified 30 people with the infection-- caused by a bacteria called Mycobacterium marinum-- all of whom handled live or raw seafood at the Chinatown markets in Queens, Manhattan, and Brooklyn.
M. marinum, as it's called, can travel from contaminated fish into a human body through a break in the skin, such as a cut. According to the health department, symptoms include "skin lesions, pain and swelling to the hands and arms and even difficulty moving fingers."
Although not usually considered life-threatening, the infection can worsen over time. Those who leave it untreated for weeks or months may have to undergo surgery.
The health department says some of those who were infected "have been treated with traditional Chinese medicine or types of antibiotics." These type of treatments, the department says, do NOT cure the infection.
Those handling raw fish at New York seafood markets have been instructed to wear waterproof gloves.
The health department added that those who eat seafood from the Chinatown markets are not at risk of infection.
A report in October found that M. marinum infections from aquariums were being under-diagnosed.

British beach volleyball women move a step closer to qualifying two teams for Olympics
The Bath-based British women's beach volleyball squad have moved a step closer to qualifying two pairings to compete at the London 2012 Olympic Games.
The four-strong British team took gold at the semi-final of the CEV Continental Cup in France at the weekend to qualify a place at next month's Final in Russia.
The winner of the Continental Cup Final qualifies a place at the London 2012 Games. If the British team, whose UK training base is at the University of Bath, win that competition they will qualify a second team for 2012 in addition to the host nation berth they receive.
The teams finishing second and third at Continental Cup Final in Moscow get a further opportunity to qualify through the World Cup Olympic Qualification event.
Although beach volleyball is played in teams of pairs, the Continental Cup is played as a tournament with national teams of two pairings.
The British team Shauna Mullin & Zara Dampney, along with Denise Johns & Lucy Boulton, won the opening rounds of the Continental Cup semi-final in Sevres with a 3-0 win over Bulgaria and a 3-1 victory over Slovakia.
In the final, Johns and Boulton won their opening contest against Alejandra Simon and Cristina Hopf, but the Spaniards then went 2-1 up in the tie after Liliana Fernandez Steiner and Elsa Baquerizo beat Mullin and Dampney and then Johns and Boulton.
But Mullin and Dampney levelled the tie by beating Simon and Hopf. That set up a golden set, with Fernandez Steiner and Baquerizo, who were unbeaten throughout the competition in Sevres, facing Mullin and Dampney. The British pair took the set 15-13 to collect the silverware.
Lucy Boulton said: "It was a good result for us and it keeps the dream alive that we could have two women's teams playing at London 2012."
The result means the British team go through to the very last stage of the eight-nation Continental Cup competition in Moscow in mid-June. The winner of that qualifies a place for a pair at 2012, with the second and third teams going through to contest the 10-team World Cup Olympic Qualification event in Sardinia at the end of June. The top two countries at that competition also qualify places for London 2012.
The University of Bath is The Sunday Times University of the Year 2011/12.

Quantitative comparison of microfabric and magnetic fabric in black shales from the Appalachian plateau (western Pennsylvania, U.S.A.)
Kuehn, Rebecca; Hirt, Ann M.; Biedermann, Andrea Regina; Leiss, Bernd (2019). Quantitative comparison of microfabric and magnetic fabric in black shales from the Appalachian plateau (western Pennsylvania, U.S.A.). Tectonophysics, 765, pp. 161-171. Elsevier 10.1016/j.tecto.2019.04.013
1-s2.0-S0040195119301350-main.pdf - Published Version
Anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS) has been shown to be a good proxy for crystallographic preferred orientation (texture). However, it is not clear in detail how different factors, e.g. modal composition and preferred orientation, define the total AMS in a rock. Black shale samples from a drill core on the Appalachian Plateau in western Pennsylvania were analyzed with respect to their microfabric as determined by texture and microstructure, and AMS. Low- and high-field AMS, which was measured at room temperature, reveals that the AMS of the samples is dominated by the para- and diamagnetic phases. Synchrotron diffraction was applied to determine the texture of all relevant mineral phases incorporated in the samples. Muscovite and chlorite pole figures show single maxima perpendicular to the foliation, reflecting dominant flattening strain. From these textures and the modal compositions, AMS models were calculated using the intrinsic magnetic anisotropy of the single crystals. The modeled and measured AMS are comparable in terms of their principal directions and shapes of the anisotropy ellipsoid for the dominantly paramagnetic samples, with the maximum susceptibility axes oriented subhorizontal to the NE-SW. Both, textures and AMS, indicate that the samples have undergone largely bedding compaction with a weak tectonic overprint linked to the Alleghenian orogeny. Our results suggest that the microfabric and the magnetic fabrics on the plateau, 200 km away from the Allegheny Front, detect the tectonic shortening. The AMS modeling demonstrates how the contribution of the intrinsic AMS of each mineral controls the AMS of the whole rock.

A little gentler approach is needed here, so they like to start with a 30 minute circus and magic show with some audience participation, the birthday boy or girl gets to be the star of the show, tricks they can try etc, comedy juggling, spinning plates et al and more gentle fun finshed off with 25 minutes or so of balloon models for them to take home.
Some great circus themed parachute games or pedalgo races to start with depending on their ages and abilities. Then a circus skills show, still with a bit of magic, juggling, audience participation competitions with plates or balloons etc and the star of the show doing the finale.
30 minutes of more energetic circus based parachute Games to start off, or how about a mini Circus workshop instead? With quick lessons in juggling, diablo and spinning plates and a go on a trainer unicycle (a pedalgo) Then a 25 minute Circus skills show which gets more adventurous the older they are.
For a two hour show they will meet and greet your guests and help them get organized, then make sure everyone has fun with lots of games or a circus workshop and modeling balloons for all, plus a circus and magic show and even juggle the jelly during the party tea!
PNM have plenty of talented entertainers to offer if you have a larger party planned and can offer various themes if you haven't already got one in mind.

In case of adult acne around the mouth and on the chin, Retinol based products have been proven highly effective. They contain derivatives of vitamin A and can help unclog pores to treat existing acne and prevent new ones. A thin layer applied every night can help reduce existing blemishes while preventing new zits. Retinol is available by prescription as well as over the counter.... In men, shaving could cause chin acne due to follicular pimples. The surge of testosterone – particularly after working out – could also cause chin acne in men. Sometimes the wrong skin care products also cause chin acne in men. To reduce the risk of a breakout, avoid beauty products that contain SLS or sodium lauryl sulfate and sodium dodecyl sulfate.
The two best ways to prevent sports or music related chin acne are cleansing your skin right after practice, a game, or a performance, and keeping your equipment or instrument clean. After playing your instrument or your sport, gently wash your chin.... The goal here is to achieve a clean, healthy, youthful complexion. Touching your face will only aid the blockage of more pores, causing more problems for your goal to get chin acne under control.
Chin Hair and Acne in Women The causes of adult acne in women may be hormonal, stress-induced or due to resistant bacteria. Under stress, the general health of skin declines and this may cause a heightened sensitivity to acne-producing bacteria or an excess of sebum, which clogs your pores and traps acne-causing bacteria under your skin.
According to HealthLine, chin acne in women is often the result of hormones—so if you live a healthy lifestyle and still find yourself plagued by acne, this makes plenty of sense.
By the mid-20s and 30s, acne is made of deep pockets of white blood cells, and these can't be popped. Keep your hands off these awful kinds of zits; popping only makes them worse."

Surfing, the new application of 3D printing?
Until today, we have seen a wide range of 3D printing applications in various industries apart from sport. A research team from the University of Wollongong (UOW) has remedied this situation. They have recently combined their love for the sport of surfing with additive manufacturing.
As part of a Global Challenge Program, the surfers/researchers decided to compare 3D printed fin shapes with conventional fins. They tested new shapes of 3D printed surfboard fins produced at the Australian National Fabrication Facility node at the UOW.
Could 3D printing revolutionize the sport of surfing?
The beginner would not notice any difference between the 3D-printed surfboard fins and the conventional surf fins. However according to Professor Marc in het Panhuis, a 3D printing specialist, the difference relies in the ride.
The research team therefore used a CAD software to create fin designs. Thereafter, they used computational fluid dynamics to see how the fin was likely to perform in the water. They finally chose the most convenient materials to 3D print the prototype.
Now comes the hardest part of the project. A well-known left-hand-breaking wave called Macaronis was the ideal to test the newly 3D printed surfboard.

From QB to M.D.
OUWB alum Brandon Luczak, M.D., combines love of sports, medicine into career as surgeon

One would be hard-pressed to find anyone who thinks an ACL tear is a good thing, but that's exactly how it worked out for Brandon Luczak, M.D.
That's because were it not for that high school injury, life might be a bit different for Luczak, '15, OUWB.
He might not have understood at such a young age the difference that a physician can make in someone's life.
He might not have been exposed to the medical and physical rehab settings — the kind of places appealing to a youngster like Luczak, who had a keen interest in science and engineering.
He might not have attended OUWB. He might not have even been a doctor.
"I really felt grateful for my surgeon who was able to take me from a spot where I couldn't play to a place where I could play at a high level," he said.
So much so, he says, that the seed of an idea to one-day become a physician was planted — an idea that would eventually become reality.
"I liked the idea of being the one to help people to get back to playing sports and doing the things that they love to do."
Putting in the work
Luczak grew up in Rochester, Michigan, not too far from Oakland University.
He attended Rochester High School, and good grades came fairly easy for him.
"I was taught to do the best I can," he says. "You know, put in the work and get out of it what you need to get out of it."
He carried that attitude over to sports, which Luczak says have always been a big part of his life. He grew up playing soccer, football, basketball, and baseball. In high school, he played basketball, baseball, and football.
Sports were so important to him, in fact, that he wasn't dissuaded when he tore his ACL playing basketball between his freshman and sophomore years.
He just "put in the work" and it paid off.
As an undergraduate, he attended Kalamazoo College where he not only studied pre-med, but also played two sports: baseball and football.
To this date, Luczak holds just about every school passing record in the books from his stellar 2009 season. That includes the top three records for total offense in a game, top two records for passing yards in a single game, most completions in a single game, as well as total passing yards and total touchdown passes for a single season.
"Sports have always been a huge part of my life and I always wanted to make some type of career out of them," he says.
That's where OUWB came into the picture.

'Very blessed'
After Kalamazoo College, Luczak did a research year before being accepted into OUWB.
He says the academic aspects of OUWB were similar to what he had experienced in western Michigan, especially the smaller class sizes, and the feeling that all of the students knew each other.
Luczak says he also liked the general philosophy of the school, the curriculum, and the fact that it was close to his family.
And as part of the school's inaugural class, Luczak also found the newness of the school appealing.
"The staff and administration listened to us," he says. "They wanted our feedback…wanted us to be part of building something at OUWB."
Luczak took advantage of the opportunity, too. In 2012, he received the LaBan Award from OUWB, which was given to the most outstanding first-year medical student in the school's Art and Practice of Medicine course.
That same year, he was the first person to receive the Michele D. Raible Award, which is given to a medical student wo best exemplifies a love for learning and a collaborative and supportive spirit amongst the student body.
In 2015, he was inducted into the Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Medical Society.
Perhaps most meaningful, he says is how close he remains with many of the cohort of "pioneers" that made up OUWB's first class.
"Because I've always been in sports, I've always been a team player, and that's how it felt at OUWB — and that's something that I'll always remember," he says. "Some of the other big schools I was looking into just didn't have that kind of feeling."
After OUWB
Luczak completed an orthopaedic surgery residency at Beaumont. For 2019-20, he served as chief resident.
In 2020-21, Luczak held an orthopaedic sports medicine fellowship at University of Connecticut Musculoskeletal Institute.

After completing the fellowship, he returned to metro Detroit, and since 2021 has been an orthopaedic sports medicine surgeon at Trinity Health IHA Medical Group in Brighton.
At IHA, Luczak works with younger and older athletes alike. He performs non-operative and operative procedures, such as arthroscopic surgery of the shoulder, hip, and knee, as well as shoulder replacements. He also works as a team physician at Howell High School.
Luczak says he's grateful "to be able to do what I wanted to do all along, which is help improve the lives of others."
"It's satisfying to know that I'm finally doing that," he says. "It's most fulfilling to see patients getting back to doing what they love and thanking you for helping them get there…that's why I do."
When not building up his practice, Luczak likes to spend time with his wife of nine years, Jaime, and their three boys. He also enjoys coaching little league, and playing golf as part of a mission to "keep the competitive juices flowing."
And he never forgets his time at OUWB.
"I'm always grateful for everything that OUWB…it helped me get to where I am today," he says.
"I was very blessed to be part of OUWB."

Q: How can I represent a sequence of an element with coupled attribute types in XSD? I have the following requirements and am trying to determine how best to model the XSD to represent these requirements.
I have many instances of an XML element, say <box>.  Each <box> has a required attribute t="[box-type]" and each box with a specific type, say t="tall" has another required attribute v="10" which represents the height of the tall box.  All <box>es have both t and v attributes, but the restriction on what values are accepted for their v attributes depends on the value of their t attribute.
For example, take the following XML:
<box t="tall" v="10"/>
<box t="named" v="George"/>
<box t="colored" v="green"/>

Now, in my XSD I need to be able represent a sequence of such elements.  My thought was to do something like the following which just lists out all of the allowed box types in my sequence (at the end of the following snippet):
<xsd:simpleType name="box_types">
    <xsd:restriction base="xsd:token">
        <xsd:enumeration value="tall" />
        <xsd:enumeration value="named" />
        <xsd:enumeration value="colored" />
    </xsd:restriction>
</xsd:simpleType>

<!--Box base-->
<xsd:complexType name="box_type">
    <xsd:attribute name="t" use="required" type="box_types"/>
    <xsd:attribute name="v" use="required"/>
</xsd:complexType>

<!--Box concrete types-->
<xsd:complexType name="tall_box_type">
    <xsd:complexContent>
        <xsd:extension base="box_type">
            <xsd:attribute name="t" fixed="tall" use="required"/>
            <xsd:attribute name="v" type="xsd:int" use="required"/>
        </xsd:extension>
    </xsd:complexContent>
</xsd:complexType>

<xsd:complexType name="named_box_type">
    <xsd:complexContent>
        <xsd:extension base="box_type">
            <xsd:attribute name="t" fixed="named" use="required"/>
            <xsd:attribute name="v" type="xsd:string" use="required"/>
        </xsd:extension>
    </xsd:complexContent>
</xsd:complexType>

<xsd:complexType name="colored_box_type">
    <xsd:complexContent>
        <xsd:extension base="box_type">
            <xsd:attribute name="t" fixed="colored" use="required"/>
            <xsd:attribute name="v" type="xsd:token" use="required"/>
        </xsd:extension>
    </xsd:complexContent>
</xsd:complexType>

<!--And finally, the place where boxes show up-->
<xsd:complexType name="box_usage">
    <xsd:sequence>
        <xsd:element name="box" type="tall_box_type"/>
        <xsd:element name="box" type="named_box_type"/>
        <xsd:element name="box" type="colored_box_type"/>
    </xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>

Unfortunately, that is not a valid XSD - VS gives me the several errors, the most unfortunate being Elements with the same name and in the same scope must have the same type.  Any advice on how I can represent these t/v coupled attribute restrictions in an XSD?

A: XML Schema 1.0 can't validate dependencies between values. Your options are:

*

*Change your XML. For instance, use tallBox, colorBox and nameBox as element names.

*Validate the general structure with XSD and validate values with program logic (or some other tool like Schematron or an XSLT stylesheet).

*Use XML Schema 1.1, which can validate value constraints but is not commonly supported, yet.
