Q: What is Juvenile Probation?
A: Probation is a supervision program created by law, which is ordered by the court in cases involving a youth who is found to have committed a delinquent act. Probation is a legal status in which the freedom of the youth is limited and the youth's activities are restricted in lieu of commitment to the custody of the Department of Juvenile Justice.
Q: How is a youth referred to the Department of Juvenile Justice?
Deliver youth to a Juvenile Assessment Center (JAC) for intake screening to further assess youth's risk to the community and determine if some type of detention is necessary.
Call an "on call screener" to assess youth's risk and determine if detention is necessary (this is done in localities where a JAC is not available).
Release youth to a parent or guardian and forward the charges to the local clerk of court and DJJ Probation office.
Release the youth to parent or guardian with a direct referral to a "diversion program".
Q: My child was taken into custody (arrested) by law enforcement. What happens now?
Your child is taken to a Juvenile Assessment Center (JAC) or a Juvenile Detention Center for detention intake screening.
Screening assesses the risk your child may pose to the community and determines if some type of detention is necessary.
Your child may be released to you or placed in a secure facility depending on the outcome of a detention risk assessment.
Your child may be released to you with a direct referral to a diversion program.
Charges are forwarded to the Clerk of the Court and the Probation Office.
Q: My child was taken into custody (arrested) by law enforcement. How long after being taken into custody can I see my child?
A: Depending on the detention screening assessment your child may be released to your custody or placed in a secure facility pending a court hearing. You must contact the detention facility, and ask for the designated visiting hours. Special requests may be made through the youth's case manager and/or program superintendent.
Q: What is a Juvenile Probation Officer and what does one do?
Initial intake service on referrals from law enforcement for youth under the age of 18 at the time the offense was committed.
Assessment(s) and referrals for services based on youth risk and needs.
Community-based intervention services that may include supervision.
Q: Why is my child assigned a JPO?
A: A JPO is assigned to all youth referred to DJJ. This does not mean that your child is or will be on probation.
A JPO is the front-line staff member who delivers case management services to your child and your family. For the most part, your child's JPO is the single-point of contact for you and your child as your child's case moves through the juvenile justice system.
The JPO is the staff member who recommends how to handle your child's law violation, which may range from a non-judicial diversion program, probation supervision, or commitment, including residential commitment.
If your child goes to a residential commitment program, then your single-point of contact during that time will be your child's residential social worker who is a member of the treatment team at the residential program.
Q: What will a youth who receives a civil citation or similar prearrest diversion (CC/PAD) be required to do?
A: The youth will be assessed and receive services to address identified risk factors that may include family counseling, drug screening, substance abuse treatment, or mental health treatment. Additional sanctions or services considered at the local level could include a letter of apology to the victim, restitution, school progress monitoring, or prevocational skill services.
Q: Is there a fiscal impact or a cost to implement CC/PAD?
A: Any implementation costs should be low because CC/PAD works through diversion programs existing in a community such as those already operated by sheriffs, state attorneys, or teen courts.
Q: What is a CC/PAD? What are the advantages to having a civil citation or similar prearrest diversion program?
A: Civil citation or similar prearrest diversion is a mechanism for first time misdemeanants to enter a structured community diversion program with no arrest record upon successful completion. Youth and their families benefit from services that target specific risk factors. Because CC/PAD has the lowest recidivism in the DJJ continuum of services youth, families and communities benefit from fewer future arrests.
Q: Are we required to have a CC/PAD program even though our county has other diversionary programs?
A: In s. 985.12, F.S., the Legislature encourages but does not mandate that counties, municipalities, or educational institutions participate in CC/PAD.
Q: Is a youth who successfully completes CC/PAD for a misdemeanor offense and is later arrested for a misdemeanor or felony eligible for a subsequent civil citation or similar prearrest diversion?
A: Section 985.12, F. S. (click here), specifies that misdemeanor offenses are eligible for CC/PAD and that statutory stakeholders in each circuit set eligibility standards. Subsequent civil citation or similar prearrest opportunities, whether youth are required to guilt, and the timeframe for youth to make initial contact with the program are examples of decisions that may be made by a circuit's statutory stakeholders.
Q: Can a youth receive a second or third citation while completing sanctions for a prior civil CC/PAD?
A: Yes, if the circuit statutory stakeholders agree.
Q: Who are the CC/PAD circuit statutory stakeholders and what are their responsibilities?
A: Effective July 1, 2018, the state attorney, public defender, clerk of the court for each county in the circuit, and representatives of participating law enforcement agencies in the circuit shall create a circuit CC/PAD program and create its policies and procedures including eligibility criteria, implementation and operation, and program requirements. Program requirements include but are not limited to the completion of community service hours, intervention services, and a program fee, if any, to be paid by the youth. The circuit program will be operated by the state attorney.
Q: May existing CC/PAD programs continue to operate independent of the circuit program?
A: Yes. Programs in existence on October 1, 2018 may continue to operate as an independent program upon state attorney determination that the program is in substantial compliance to the circuit program.
Q: Will a needs assessment be conducted on a youth for every CC/PAD issued?
Q: My program has a youth assessment process in place. May we continue to use it?
A: Effective July 11, 2018, juvenile needs assessment tools must be approved by DJJ. Assessments should be submitted to Amy.Greenwald@djj.state.fl.us for review.
Q: What assessments have been approved by the DJJ?
A: The Prevention Assessment Tool (PAT), the GAIN-Q3, and the Biopsychosocial assessment.
Q: How long will an assessment be good for on a youth?
A: The assessment is good for the time a youth is in CC/PAD, which is typically 90 days.
Q: Is there a follow-up assessment for youth to show if there have been substantial changes in the youth's life or family since the previous assessment?
A: An exit assessment is not required for CC/PAD youth.
Q: Are CC/PAD programs that enter youth data weekly in the Juvenile Justice Information System Prevention Web required to submit a quarterly report of youth served pursuant to s. 985.126, F. S.?
A: No, the quarterly report is not necessary if youth data is entered in the Prevention Web weekly.
Q: Is a youth with a prior misdemeanor or felony referral that was non-filed, nolle prossed, or diverted eligible for CC/PAD?
A: Youth with a prior charge that was nolle prossed without sanctions or not filed will be reflected as eligible on the CC/PAD dashboard providing there are no other priors in the youth's history. Click here to see the Department's interactive CC/PAD dashboard.
Q: Is a youth whose record was expunged eligible for CC/PAD?
Q: Can a youth in a post-arrest diversion program or on probation receive a civil citation or similar prearrest diversion?
A: Eligibility is determined by stakeholders in each judicial circuit. DJJ does not reflect youth with an arrest history as eligible for CC/PAD on the dashboard.
Q: Are sexting offenses eligible for CC/PAD?
A: First time sexting offenses are not eligible for CC/PAD. Under s. 847.0141, F.S., (click here) first time sexting offenders have defined sanctions that are not compatible with CC/PAD.
Q: Are noncriminal traffic violations eligible for civil citation or similar prearrest diversion?
A: No. CC/PAD is an option for youth charged with a criminal traffic violation which is punishable as a misdemeanor offense. Examples of criminal traffic violations include driving under the influence, reckless driving, driving with a suspended license, and leaving the scene of an accident with property damage.
A: A youth who has successfully completed CC/PAD has no criminal history record and is not required to disclose the CC/PAD. A youth with a charge that was non-filed or nolle prossed may need to disclose depending on how the information is requested.
Q: Is a local agency required to disclose to the military if a youth had a prior charge that was nolle prossed or non-filed? And how should they respond to military requests?
A: The Department discloses delinquency records related to a nolle prossed or non-filed charge to the military; however, whether this is required of a local agency is a matter for the service branch to determine in their dealings with the local agency.
Q: Our state attorney's office has agreed to divert a youth to CC/PAD who was arrested on an eligible offense. How can the initial arrest be cleared or purged from the criminal history databases?
A: If a state attorney decides not to file charges, either by dismissing the case or referring the youth to a diversion or civil citation program, the Department will immediately remove the youth's entire delinquency record from JJIS and input it into Prevention Web as a civil citation case. In the event a criminal record has been created by the submission of fingerprints to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE), a youth who successfully completes CC/PAD may petition for the criminal record to be expunged. Information about expunging or sealing records is available on the FDLE website (click here).
Q: In extenuating circumstances, can a youth otherwise eligible for CC/PAD who has a prior record be served by civil citation or similar prearrest diversion?
Q: Where can I find Chapter 2018-127, Laws of Florida (Senate Bill 1392)?

To see s. 985.126, Diversion programs; data collection; denial of participation or expunged record, click here.
Q: Where can I find information about CC/PAD and outcome information?
A: The CC/PAD Webpage, which is available here, includes links to the best practice guide, presentations, brochures, circuit program information. and other data. The CC/PAD Dashboard tracks utilization data and outcomes and is available here. The annual Comprehensive Accountability Report tracks recidivism data and is accessible here.
Q: How will civil citation or similar prearrest diversion benefit public safety? Will it give kids who commit crimes a slap on the wrist?
A: Research has shown that detained youth are more likely than non-detained youth to end up deeper in the system. Addressing behavioral needs of these youth at their first contact with the juvenile justice system and helping overcome that behavior enhances public safety, protects the futures of first time offenders who stay out of trouble, and avoids significant costs to the state by decreasing the likelihood youth will reoffend as a youth or as an adult.
Q: What is the Intake Process?
A: An "Intake" Juvenile Probation Officer receives a copy of the charge from law enforcement or the clerk of the court. The Juvenile Probation Officer (JPO) will contact the youth and family and conduct an interview to gather information about the youth and family. The purpose of the intake process is for the juvenile probation officer (JPO) to assess the youth's risk and needs to determine the most appropriate recommendations for services by considering the interests of the youth, parent(s)/guardian(s), victim, and community. The assessment information is collected through interviews, observations and interactions with the youth and the family. Information is also obtained from the complainant, the victim, school officials and other individuals and agencies associated with the youth and family. The intake assessment process initially results in a recommendation to the state attorney and, if necessary, a written report to the court or the Predisposition Report. The intake process assists the JPO in choosing the most appropriate recommendation for services that balances the needs and interest of the youth, family, the victim, and the community as a whole.
Q: Will my child be required to take a DNA test?
A: Effective September 1, 2011, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) sample collection is required in accordance with § 943.325, F.S. >>update link<<at disposition. In your child's case, DNA collection is required for felonies and certain misdemeanors once your child has been arrested by law enforcement—even if your child's case has not gone before a judge. Being found guilty of certain felony offenses may result in a court order that your child must cooperate with DNA testing. DNA test results are kept on file with the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE).
Q: What is the PACT and how is it used to help my child?
A: The Positive Achievement Change Tool (PACT) is used to assess a delinquent youth's risks and needs and guides treatment recommendations. The assessment process begins with a PACT Pre-Screen interview administered to all youth referred to DJJ. The initial assessment takes approximately 20-25 minutes to complete. A single PACT Pre-Screen interview at intake assists the Juvenile Probation Officer to identify if a youth is in need of further mental health, alcohol, or substance abuse assessment. A more detailed assessment (called the PACT Full Assessment) is given to youth who score at Moderate-High or High risk to re-offend on the PACT Pre-Screen. Information from the PACT Full Assessment can be used to develop plans specific to the youth's identified needs. The Department calls this plan the Youth Empowered Success (YES) Plan.
The PACT also identifies those strengths (or protective factors) that can be built upon to turn the youth's life around. The benefit of measuring risk factors and protective factors is that juvenile justice professionals involved with a particular youth are better able to match a child's current needs with the right programs and services. PACT Reassessments are completed periodically to help the Juvenile Probation Officer and other professionals measure the progress that the youth is making on addressing factors related to delinquent behavior.
Q: What is Non-Judicial Intervention?
A: The recommendation presented by the Juvenile Probation Officer to the state attorney may recommend a "non-judicial" diversion program. If this recommendation is approved by the state attorney, the youth and guardian may be required to sign a "waiver of speedy trial" agreement. With this agreement the youth and family agree to waive their right to a speedy trial with the understanding that the youth will complete all the requirements of the diversion program.
If the youth successfully completes the program, no further action (no judicial action) will be pursued by the state attorney. However, if the youth fails to complete the program, the state attorney will file a petition with the juvenile division of the circuit court, formally charging the youth with the delinquent offense.
Q: What is a diversion program?
A: A diversion program is a form of non-judicial handling of your child's case. Rather than going to court the JPO may recommend your child receive help through a diversion program.
If your child successfully completes the program, no further court action will be pursued. However, if your child does not complete the diversion program, the State Attorney may file a petition with the Juvenile Division of the Circuit Court (Juvenile Court), formally charging your child with the delinquent offense.
Q: What is Juvenile Court or a "recommendation for court intervention?
A: After gathering all of the necessary information and assessments, your child's JPO may recommend that the State Attorney's Office formally charge your child with a delinquent offense. This is a "recommendation for court intervention." A recommendation for court intervention may include adult prosecution, if the offense is very serious or if your child has a history of law violations (habitual offender).
If the State Attorney files a delinquency petition based on the charge it is sent to the Juvenile Division of the Circuit Court. This special division of the Court hears juvenile cases of law violations.
Your child's JPO cannot recommend a diversion program for your child after the case has been tried in Juvenile Court.
If your child has committed a serious offense or is a habitual offender, the JPO's recommendation may include prosecution of your child in Adult Court.
Your child cannot be tried as an adult after being tried as a juvenile for the same crime.
Q: What happens if my child is referred to Adult Court?
A: With certain felony offenses, the law may require that your child's law violation is heard in Adult Court. Your child's case may be sent to the Adult Criminal Division of the Circuit Court (Adult Court) by "direct file," "waiver," or "indictment." In these circumstances, it is possible that your child would be tried as an adult for the offense and receive adult sentencing.
When this happens, the Florida Department of Corrections is involved in your child's case, giving recommendations to Adult Court.
In some circumstances, a juvenile may be found guilty in Adult Court but sentenced back to DJJ for sanctions to be carried out or for commitment to a residential program.
Q: Does the JPO make a recommendation to the court for disposition?
A: If a petition is filed in court, the Juvenile Probation Officer will present a recommendation to the court that considers risk, accountability and individual needs. This recommendation may range from a court ordered diversion or plan to probation to residential commitment.
A: Redirection is a specialized approach that was established by the Florida Legislature to use community-based alternatives instead of residential commitment for those youth with serious emotional disturbances and/or substance abuse-related disorders and meeting certain criterion. Services use evidence based practices and can be offered to youth to prevent further delinquency that could lead to a residential placement. These services are offered in communities across the state and allow the youth and family to participate in one of the following therapies: Functional Family Therapy (FFT) or Multi-Systemic Therapy (MST), Brief Strategic Therapy (BFST) or Parenting with Love and Limits (PLL).
Q: How long will my child be on probation?
A: Only the court can terminate a youth's probation supervision. Once your child has completed all court-ordered sanctions and met all of his treatment goals, the JPO will recommend to the court the termination of his probation. If your child is "adjudicated delinquent" by the court, the maximum term of supervision is limited by the maximum term applicable to the degree of the offense (e.g., 1 year for a first-degree misdemeanor). An exception exists for second-degree misdemeanors, which have a maximum supervisory term of 6 months, as opposed to the ordinary statutory maximum of 60 days. If your child has "adjudication withheld," then the maximum term of supervision is not limited by the degree of the offense. However, whether your child is adjudicated or has adjudication withheld, supervision cannot extend beyond his or her 19th birthday.
Q: Will my child be placed on supervision after leaving a residential commitment program?
A: Upon completion of a residential commitment program your child will probably be expected to cooperate with "conditional release" or some type of "supervised aftercare." This is similar to being on probation except that your child is still committed to DJJ. Thus, he could be returned to a residential commitment facility for violating the terms of his supervision. This is done administratively without further order of the court. Another type of supervision after completion of a residential commitment program is post-commitment probation. Violations of post-commitment supervision are heard by the Circuit Court.
A: Transition is a collaborative process in which each youth is linked with the appropriate services to successfully re-integrate back into the community following residential placement.
Q: My son or daughter is on Probation and did not come home last night; I think he or she might have run away. What do I do?
A: If you do not know the whereabouts of your child or you suspect he or she has runaway, call the police immediately and place a missing persons report. Be ready to give all pertinent information including: description, height, weight, date of birth, current address, legal status (Probation, pre-placement supervision, conditional release) date and time last seen. Then, call the assigned Juvenile Probation Officer. The juvenile Probation officer will confirm that the youth is missing and ask the court to issue an Order to Take into Custody. Your child will have a court appearance within 24 hours of the time he or she is apprehended. If your child did not run away, but was gone from the home for a short period of time without permission and has returned, please call law enforcement and your Juvenile Probation Officer to update them of his or her safe return.
A: Your child will have a delinquency record and there will be a record of his arrest even if he is not "adjudicated" or if "adjudication is withheld." FDLE is the official keeper of criminal history records in the State of Florida per Ch. 943, F.S., and as such collects, processes, stores, maintains and disseminates criminal justice information and records that includes records on minors.
Q: When my child fills out an application for employment or school, is it necessary to disclose the child's juvenile arrest record?
A: Depending on the wording of the employment or school application, your child must disclose his arrest history unless the record has been sealed or expunged by court order.
According to Florida law, your child can deny any arrest covered by a sealed or expunged record. However, §943.0585 and §943.059, F.S., impose certain exceptions that require acknowledgement of arrests when, for example, the individual seeks employment with a criminal justice agency, a licensed child care facility, and other sensitive positions.
Q: What is the Interstate Compact for Juvenile Offenders?
A: The Interstate Compact for Juvenile (ICJ) offenders provides a legal means of transferring the supervision of youth from one state to another and returning runaways.
Q: I need to move to Florida. What is the process?
A: Youth who are on probation or "parole" (see below) in another state (sending state) and need to move to Florida must ask their juvenile probation officer to submit an application for services and request that Florida accept their transfer and agree to supervise them. Once the request for transfer and supervision is approved by Florida, the youth may relocate.
Q: How many days in advance is the transfer request submitted?
A: The requests must be submitted to the ICJ Office 60 days prior to the youth's anticipated release date from a residential commitment program or on post commitment probation or conditional release.
Q: What if I have already moved from Florida to another state (the receiving state)?
A: The Florida juvenile probation officer must maintain contact with the youth until supervision is accepted in the receiving state.
Q: What type of youth is classified as a parolee under the Compact?
A: To maintain uniformity with other states, any youth committed to a residential program or released in the community on post commitment probation or conditional release is considered a "parolee".
Q: Can a parolee relocate to another state prior to receiving an acceptance letter?
A: No parolee shall relocate out-of-state prior to receiving an acceptance notification from the receiving state.
Q: Do I need to ask for a travel permit to visit or relocate to another state?
A: Yes. Youth must ask the juvenile probation officer for a travel permit and the officer will submit the request to the ICJ Office prior to the youth relocating or visiting another state.
Q: For how many days can a travel permit be issued?
A: A travel permit can be issued up to 90 calendar days.
Q: What happens to an out-of-state runaway is picked up by the police?
A: Out-of-state runaways shall be held in secure facilities. The youth must be brought before a judge within 24 hours of detainment for Consent for Voluntary Return of Runaway, Escapee or Absconder wavier.
Q: How many days do the home/demanding states have to return the youth?
A: Once the youth and judge sign the voluntary waiver, the home/demanding state has five business days to return the youth.
Q: What situations require the return of a youth?
A: A non-delinquent youth runs away to another state; a youth is an escapee, absconder, or accused delinquent and flees to another state; or a youth under Compact supervision has a failed placement.

Orchids are one of nature's most recognizable flowers, and definitely one of the pricey-est as well! If you spent your hard earned money on an orchid plant, It's probably a pretty good idea to know how to care for it! I was always under the impression that orchids were super complex to care for, and that even the most talented green thumbs sometimes have problems. Well, I'm here to set the record straight! Here's an easy method to orchid care that will leave you will the prettiest blooms ever.
Orchids aren't any more complex to care for than a regular old houseplant. Much like any houseplant, the most common orchid-killer is overwatering. Overwatering can cause a slew of problems for your plant! Only water your orchids just before the soil goes completely dry. This might be once a week for some, or once every couple weeks for others. Purchase a clear plant pot if you are worried about it, if you can't see any water condensation inside, it's time to water!
When it comes to Orchids, the right potting medium is incredibly important. Orchids are typically potted in a wooden bark, or a kind of moss. The moss acts like a "sponge" and helps ensure that your plant doesn't dry out too quickly. Either way, the type of potting medium used will depend on your variety of orchid. Never use regular potting soil!
Orchids do need a bit more fertilization than any other houseplant normally would. In fact, it's a really great idea to fertilize your plant each time you water it! Pick out a fertilizer at the store, and only use one fourth the amount recommended on the package each time you fertilize.
Never place your orchid in a southern-facing window! Believe it or not, Orchids aren't a variety of plants that require a whole lot of sunlight. In fact, they tolerate levels of low light much better than levels of high light! Place your potted orchid in an eastern-facing window for best grow results.
If your home has dryer air (maybe it's the winter, or maybe you just live in the desert!) it is a great idea to mist the leaves of your orchid with a spray bottle once daily.
If you need help getting your Orchids to re-bloom, this guide from Better Homes and Gardens is super helpful!

European Parliament adopts important report which recognises the diversity of sport organisations
Today, 23 November, the long-awaited report on the EU's Sports policy was adopted by the European Parliament. The report can be found here.
The report follows the extensive study which was requested by the European Parliament's CULT Committee. ISCA had significant fingerprints on that report, which was commented on here.
There has been high political involvement in the drafting of the report, which is tabled by MEP Frankowski (EPP, pictured above and in the video below): The main challenge was whether the report should acknowledge the so-called European Sport Model. This model is a contested concept that in some definitions mean giving monopoly rights to single sport federations instead of acknowledging the diversity of sport organisations that engage Europeans all over the continent.
Rather than acknowledging this model, the final report suggests "enhancing the principles of a European sports model" and "acknowledges the diversity of approaches across sports and countries".
ISCA President Mogens Kirkeby states: "The European Parliament supports the diversity of sport in Europe and the freedom of organisation. It is a democratic and inclusive position which underline the reality of the organisation of sport in Europe of today. Monopolies in sport, such as only one recognised organisation per sport, are a gone chapter of European history."
The report follows the recent adoption of a renewed European Sports Charter by the Council of Europe, which also did not acknowledge the so-called European Sport Model. Next week, the Council of the EU will likely adopt its resolution, which (in the draft text) prefers to "explore and discuss with all sport stakeholders the key features of a European Sport Model by acknowledging the diversity of approaches…"
By March 2022, the Commission will publish a study on the "European Model(s) of Sport" which will bring further evidence to the table on this highly contested concept.

Kazakhstan Plane Crash: Survivors reached out for help through social media after jet crashed
According to Kazakhstan's interior ministry, the plane had been carrying 93 passengers and five crew.
posted on Dec. 27, 2019 at 6:38 pm December 27, 2019
A passenger plane carrying nearly 100 people crashed near the city of Almaty in Kazakhstan on Friday after takeoff. The plane was flying to Nur-Sultan, the country's capital formerly known as Astana.
Bek Air flight Z9-2100 from Almaty to Astana, a domestic flight within Kazakhstan operated by a Fokker 100 with reports alternately of 93 and 95 passengers on board along with 5 crew, crashed shortly after takeoff.

Reportedly, authorities found 35 survivors with injuries, including a baby who was pulled out alive from the wreckage of a plane after it crashed into a house.
Survivors of the crash appealed for help on social media from the wreckage of the plane, reportedly as they waited up to 20 minutes for help.
According to the media reports, passengers called emergency services and posted videos online after Bek Air flight Z2100 went down Friday morning after leaving Almaty, Kazakhstan's largest city.
A survivor told news website Tengrinews she heard a "terrifying sound" before the plane started losing altitude.
"The plane was flying at a tilt. Everything was like in a movie: screaming, shouting, people crying," she said.
The Bek Air aircraft hit a concrete fence and a two-story building after takeoff from Almaty International Airport. It lost attitude at 7:22 a.m. (0122 GMT), the airport said.
In a statement on its Facebook page, the airport said there was no fire and rescue operation got underway immediately following the crash.
According to Kazakhstan's interior ministry, the plane had been carrying 93 passengers and five crew and said the captain was among those killed.
The ministry also said it was investigating a possible breach of flight operation and safety rules, a standard legal procedure. There was thick fog in the area at the time of the crash.

Switch hack seller to pay $2 million in damages to Nintendo
Chips Challenged
A lawsuit filed by Nintendo against retailer Uberchips has reached its conclusion, with the Ohio-based Switch hack seller ordered to pay damages to the Switch manufacturer.
Nintendo filed suit against several retailers back in May for the re-selling of "jailbreak" devices such as the SX Core and SX Lite, which facilitate the playing of pirated games on Switch hardware. In the case of Uberchips, the retailer is to pay $2 million USD in damages and must guarantee the destruction of all remaining stock that infringes upon any Nintendo copyrights. Nintendo has also filed a permanent injunction to prevent Uberchips from selling similar products in the future.
Nintendo has also filed suit against eight other retailers in similar cases, but due to the general "underground" nature of hack-selling and video game piracy, the publisher is yet to identify the individuals behind each of these outlets.

Metal. Anne Mondro constructs intricatley crafted human hearts and anterior organs out of copper, silver, and bronze wires. Photo by Elizabeth Smith.
In March of this year, University of Michigan's Stamps School of Art and Design opened the Stamps Gallery on the first floor of the McKinley Towne Centre, 201 S. Division. The new space offers an accessible art-viewing experience in downtown Ann Arbor and features large glass windows, which particularly impacted my viewing of the sculptural works on display by Anne Mondro as part of Reach: A Stamps Faculty Exhibition.
Her hanging sculptures, intricately constructed from tiny copper, silver, and bronze wires, represent various human hearts and anterior organs. Three hearts hang austerely in a row in the front of the gallery, which immediately drew my interest. I visited in the evening, on a sunny day, a perfect time to catch these sculptures illuminated by the setting sun.
These works illustrate Mondro's interest in traditional craft and the human body. Applying the technique of crochet to thin wire, Mondro creates complex, sophisticated designs. The wire organs float just feet above the floor and appear ghostly in the large space. Though these were the first objects to catch my attention, there are 18 artists' works on display, ranging from traditional drawing, found objects, textiles, a giant camera obscura that resembles a deer hunting blind, a mechanized brick grinder, and much more.
The exhibition features works by University of Michigan's Stamps School of Art & Design faculty, illustrating a diverse range of artistic practice. The exhibition "brings together a cross-section of rigorous and research-based work" by faculty, who "wear multiple hats as educators, storytellers, artists, and designers." These works engage with themes of contemporary art practice, the large show including pieces ranging from traditional media to interactive works.
One such interactive work is the installation by artists Stephanie Rowden and Jennifer Metsker. The Bird in the Breath and Other Hopeful Cargo features a two-wall "room" with egg-shell blue walls, a dark, wood chair and a hanging set of headphones. The chair is positioned beneath the headphones, inviting the viewer to sit in the space and listen to the recording playing through the speakers. If you choose to engage with the piece and listen to the headphones, a poem adapted from the works of Emily Dickinson plays on a loop. The wall text states, "This list-like poem reflects on the rich ephemera found in her poems -- the feathers, the shadows, the gown -- and imagines them being packed up shipped across time and space." The listener can wear the headphones and sit peacefully against the blue-toned walls inscribed with white paint; words such as pearl, cloud, button, and bird reiterate the quotidian aesthetic in both the poetry and the installation space. This audio poem was commissioned by BBC Radio 4 and is the second in a series of adaptations by the artists.
Three video works are also on display in the gallery, at times competing for air space. In a small, semi-secluded theater-style space in the back of the gallery, two short films by Nick Tobier explore street life. The films explore two different public locations and the interactions that take place there. The first video, Detroit Local, follows a group of marchers wielding various tools, which they use as instruments, through the streets of Detroit. The group, headed by a conductor, gathers members as they walk along sidewalks and down the centers of roads. The second video, set in Bangaluru, India, depicts a man playing trombone on a busy street. Passersby often neglect to acknowledge the man playing, or large vehicles drown out the sound. Tobier's first video explores the result of the artist's intervention in creating a public occurrence, while the second appears less staged, instead focusing on the bizarre everyday life of a musician in a loud, busy city.
Holly Hughes, Bad Hombres and Nasty Women present Not My President's Day.
Holly Hughes work, Bad Hombres and Nasty Women present Not My President's Day, consisted of a computer monitor displaying three open tabs in the internet browser. Two tabs contained webpage articles, "Bad and Nasty" and "Holly Hughes strikes back at Trump's defunding of the arts." The third tab contained a Facebook image of hanging underwear, each with a pair of hands. These documents are part of Hughes' Bad and Nasty project that sponsored Not My President's Day in February 2017. The events took place in 64 cities, including Ann Arbor.
The gallery also features works by James Cogswell, Roland Graf, Osman Khan, Louis Marinaro, Rebekah Modrak, Robert Platt, Marianetta Porter, Sherri Smith, Bruce Tharp and Stephanie Tharp, and Joseph Trumpey and his students.
Reach: A Stamps Faculty Exhibition is on display in the new Stamps Gallery, 201 S. Division, Ann Arbor, through July 8. The gallery is open Tuesdays through Saturdays, 12-7 pm. A "Reach" reception will be held Friday, June 16, from 6-8 pm, and is free and open to the public.

Editeur: Faber & Faber
Détails: This is a book about Mark E. Smith and The Fall - or more precisely, their ever-influential world. The Fall were so many things, so many worlds; if you got it (and not everyone did), they represented everything. 'To 50,000 Fall Fans: please buy this inspired & inspiring, profound & provocative, beautiful & bonkers Book of Revelations, choc-stock-full of loving Acts by true Apostles, simultaneously both the scrapbook you wished you'd kept and a portal to futures & pasts, known & unknown, & a Fantastic Celebration of this Nation's Saving Grace.' DAVID PEACE 'Mind blowing... brilliant.' TIM BURGESS 'A container sized treasure trove bursting at the hinges with strangeness and wonder . . . I strongly advise you to buy it.' MAXINE PEAKE This is not a book about a rock band. This is not even a book about Mark E Smith. This is a book about The Fall group - or more precisely, their world. Over a prolific forty-year career, the Fall created a world that was influential, idiosyncratic and fiercely original - and defied simple categorisation. Their frontman and lyricist Mark E. Smith spun opaque tales that resisted conventional understanding; the Fall's worldview was an education in its own right. Who wouldn't want to be armed with a working knowledge of M. R. James, shipping-dock procedures, contemporary dance, Manchester City and Can? The group inspired and shaped the lives of those who listened to and tried to make sense of their work. Bringing together previously unseen artwork, rare ephemera and handwritten material, alongside essays by a slate of fans, EXCAVATE! is a vivid, definitive record - an illumination of the dark corners of the Fall's wonderful and frightening world.

Détails: "This book makes you understand exactly what it is like to compete as a woman at the highest level in sport, and it is exhilarating and satisfying indeed." --Holly Sorensen, Television Creator/Showrunner, Make it or Break It, Step Up: High Water Audrey Lee is going to the Olympics. A year ago, she could barely do a push up as she recovered from a spine surgery, one that could have paralyzed her. And now? She's made the United States gymnastics team with her best friend, Emma, just like they both dreamed about since they were kids. She's on top of the world. The pressure for perfection is higher than ever when horrifying news rips the team apart. Audrey is desperate to advocate for her teammate who has been hurt by the one person they trusted most--but not all the gymnasts are as supportive. With the team on the verge of collapse, the one bright spot in training is Leo, her new coach's ridiculously cute son. And while Audrey probably (okay, definitely) shouldn't date him until after the games, would it really be the end of the world? Balancing the tenuous relationship between her teammates with unparalleled expectations, Audrey doesn't need any more distractions. No matter what it takes, she's not going to let anyone bring them down. But with painful revelations, incredible odds, and the very real possibility of falling at every turn, will Audrey's determination be enough?

L'auteur : Bethany Griffin
Editeur: Harper Collins
Détails: Madeline Usher has been buried alive. The doomed heroine comes to the fore in this eerie reimagining of Edgar Allan Poe's classic short story "The Fall of the House of Usher." Gothic, moody, and suspenseful from beginning to end, The Fall is literary horror for fans of Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children and Asylum. Madeline awakes in a coffin. And she was put there by her own twin brother. But how did it come to this? In short, non-chronological chapters, Bethany Griffin masterfully spins a haunting and powerful tale of this tragic heroine and the curse on the Usher family. The house itself is alive, and it will never let Madeline escape, driving her to madness just as it has all of her ancestors. But she won't let it have her brother, Roderick. She'll do everything in her power to save him—and try to save herself—even if it means bringing the house down around them. With a sinister, gothic atmosphere and relentless tension to rival Poe himself, Bethany Griffin creates a house of horrors and introduces a whole new point of view on a timeless classic. Kirkus Reviews praised it in a starred review as "A standout take on the classic haunted-house tale replete with surprises around every shadowy corner."

Détails: Craig DeMartino never thought this would happen to him. He was 100 feet up a cliff in Rocky Mountain National Park when—with one step—his 13 years of rock climbing experience and 15 pounds of gear plummeted with him to the ground. Expert climbers say that if you fall 10 feet you have a 10% chance of dying, a 20% chance at 20 feet, 30% at 30, and so on. Craig fell 100 feet. By basic calculation, Craig should not be alive today. But he is. For anyone who has been knocked down or run over by life, After the Fall not only offers an engaging read but also provides a clear message of hope: sometimes the greatest gift we can receive isn't just healing, but the power to endure.

The listening list alone promises months of fresh discovery, the main text a fresh new way of navigating the world of sound."—The Wire 2017 Music Book of the Year—Alex Ross, The New Yorker Music after the Fall is the first book to survey contemporary Western art music within the transformed political, cultural, and technological environment of the post–Cold War era. In this book, Tim Rutherford-Johnson considers musical composition against this changed backdrop, placing it in the context of globalization, digitization, and new media. Drawing connections with the other arts, in particular visual art and architecture, he expands the definition of Western art music to include forms of composition, experimental music, sound art, and crossover work from across the spectrum, inside and beyond the concert hall. Each chapter is a critical consideration of a wide range of composers, performers, works, and institutions, and develops a broad and rich picture of the new music ecosystem, from North American string quartets to Lebanese improvisers, from electroacoustic music studios in South America to ruined pianos in the Australian outback. Rutherford-Johnson puts forth a new approach to the study of contemporary music that relies less on taxonomies of style and technique than on the comparison of different responses to common themes of permission, fluidity, excess, and loss.

Détails: The period of the demise of the kingdom of Judah at the end of the 6th century B.C.E., the fall of Jerusalem to the Babylonians, the exile of the elite to Babylon, and the reshaping of the territory of the new province of Judah, culminating at the end of the century with the first return of exiles--all have been subjects of intense scrutiny during the last decade. Lipschits takes into account the biblical textual evidence, the results of archaeological research, and the reports of Babylonian and Egyptian sources and provides a comprehensive survey and analysis of the evidence for the history of this 100-year-long era. He provides a lucid historical survey that will, no doubt, become the baseline for all future studies of this era.

L'auteur : Benjamin Halligan
Détails: This volume offers a comprehensive range of approaches to the work of Mark E. Smith and his band The Fall in relation to music, art and politics. Mark E. Smith remains one of the most divisive and idiosyncratic figures in popular music after a recording career with The Fall that spans thirty years. Although The Fall were originally associated with the contemporaneous punk explosion, from the beginning they pursued a highly original vision of what was possible in the sphere of popular music. While other punk bands burned out after a few years, only to then reform decades later as their own cover bands, The Fall continue to evolve while retaining a remarkable consistency, even with the frequent line-up changes that soon left Mark E. Smith as the only permanent member of the group. The key aspect of the group that this volume explores is the invariably creative, unfailingly critical and often antagonistic relations that characterize both the internal dynamics of the group and the group's position in the pop cultural surroundings. The Fall's ambiguous position in the unfolding histories of British popular music and therefore in the new heritage industries of popular culture in the UK, from post-punk to anti-Thatcher politics, to the 'Factory fiction of Manchester' and on into Mark E. Smith's current role as ageing enfant terrible of rock, illustrates the uneasy relationship between the band, their critical commentators and the historians of popular music. This volume engages directly with this critical ambiguity. With a diverse range of approaches to The Fall, this volume opens up new possibilities for writing about contemporary music beyond traditional approaches grounded in the sociology of music, Cultural Studies and music journalism - an aim which is reflected in the variety of provocative critical approaches and writing styles that make up the volume.

Détails: "Amy Blackmarr returns to her native Georgia as a "refugee," fleeing a bleak Kansas winter, the trauma of graduate school, and a "loss of identity, confidence, boyfriend and best dog and pride." Now White Pine Cabin, a hut barely big enough to turn around in, becomes the setting for Blackmarr's searing self-examination as she tells the stories that have led her so far inward and works out a trail back toward a happier connection with herself, the land, her God, and the people in her world. With an irony that keeps her prose from sinking into sentiment, Blackmarr writes of the dishonesty in a lost relationship, flunking her graduate exams, the inborn racism she was surprised to discover, and the loss of her beloved dog Max. But her enduring love for the land brings needed beauty and balance, and her sense of humor won't let us get away without hearing about the ghost by the creek, the bear that comes for her pork roast, the mice that eat a rat snake, and the landfill that swallows her car. Finally, when Blackmarr allows herself to move outside her solitude she always discovers the world's unexpected generosity, and it is this gift that helps heal her and make her aware of the art we create in the interwoven kindnesses we pay each other."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

The magical folk mixed with the natives, bringing culture and sophistication, and made the island one of the wealthiest, most powerful nations in the known world. But all glory is temporary. The Ghebites, savage barbarians from the warm north, have rolled over the mainland, conquering all in their path, and now they have taken Fair Isle. Imoshen, namesake of the first Empress and the last pure-blooded T'En woman, is all that survives of that great heritage. Now, just seventeen years of age, she must offer herself to the Ghebite General, Tulkhan, and do what she can to ensure her survival, and that of her people. One other T'En survives: Reothe, Imoshen's betrothed, newly returned from adventuring on the high seas. As the T'En warrior foments rebellion against Tulkhan in secret, Imoshen must choose, both as a woman and as a leader, between a past now lost and an uncertain future… This volume collects Broken Vows, Dark Dreams and Desperate Alliances for the first time.

Genre: Business & Economics
Détails: During the 1970s, monetarism and the new classical macroeconomics ushered in an era of neoliberal economic policymaking. Keynesian economics was pushed aside. It was almost forgotten that when Keynesian thinking had dominated economic policymaking in the middle decades of the twentieth century, it had coincided with postwar economic reconstruction in both Europe and Japan, and the unprecedented prosperity and stable growth of the 1950s and 1960s. The global financial crisis of 2007-2009 and the recession that followed changed all that. Influential voices in both academic economics and amongst policy-makers and commentators began to remind us how useful Keynesian ways of thinking could be, especially in coming to terms with our current economic predicaments. When politicians across the globe were confronted with economic crisis, they introduced pragmatic and workable measures that bore all the hallmarks of Keynesianism. This book is about the fall and rise of Keynesian economics. Eatwell and Milgate range widely across the landscape that defines their subject matter. They consider how powerful Keynesian ideas can be when applied to past and present economic problems. They show how helpful these ideas are in explaining why we came to find ourselves in the disorder we are in. They examine where and how the analytical and methodological foundations of conventional macroeconomic wisdom went wrong. They set out a blueprint for an alternative that provides a clearer, more consistent, and more applicable approach to understanding how markets work. They also highlight the interpretive shortcomings that have come to characterize Keynes scholarship itself. They do all of this within the context of a provocative reconsideration of some of the most pressing economic problems that confront financial markets and the global economy today. They conclude that Keynesian ideas are not just for crises, but for constructive economic policy making at all times.

Détails: Japan's December 1941-February 1942 invasion of Malaya and culminating conquest of Singapore is analyzed from an operational perspective. Although overshadowed by better known Pacific Theater actions in World War II, the campaign was Japan's most successful example of joint warfare and replete with lessons for the modern operational commander. Approached from the level of the commander and staff, the background and decision making processes are reviewed, with applicable areas identified for today's leaders. The need for aggressive leadership, accurate intelligence, flexible application of power, adjustment of force based on environmental conditions, and the value of logistics are the major lessons from the Japanese victory. Poor leadership and futility of trying to defend too much are among those lessons from the defeated British.

Détails: The mystery of Lizzie Borden has captivated the public as perhaps one of the most celebrated cases in our American justice system. Comparisons can be made to more modern-day trials, such as the O.J. Simpson trial, or the trails of Jodie Arias, Casey Anthony, and Susan Smith,which kept us riveted to our television screens to watch the gavel to gavel coverage of these sensational trials. Presented here for the first time in dialog form, are the full transcripts of the principal individuals, Bridget Sullivan, the servant, Emma Borden, Lizzie's sister, those first on the scene – Mrs. Churchill, the neighbor, the police officers, and others who testified in the "Trial of the Century". By close examination of the testimonies new light may now be shed on what the jurors heard and a better understanding of how they came to their not guilty verdict. Did Lizzie Borden commit the murders? Examine all of the evidence and arrive at your own conclusion.

L'auteur : MarkE. Smith
Editeur: Omnibus Press
Détails: Over the years, The Fall have given me more pleasure than any other band and, when people ask me why I always say, 'they are always different, they are always the same' John Peel. The first ever authorised biography of this most inscrutable of bands! Together music writer Mick Middles and Fall leader Mark E. Smith have written an exhaustive biography of The Fall. Spanning their years on the fringe of the Manchester punk scene, three dozen albums, numerous tours, two successful stage plays and various spoken word events, this book is as strangely compelling as the band itself. Laced with Smith's distinctive brand of working class intellectualism and trenchant broadsides this is a meticulously researched story to thrill the famously disparate fans of The Fall who revel in a string of classic albums that fly in the face of all fashion, fads and musical trends. Mark E Smith remains famously true to his roots. Uncomfortable in art circles in London or, say, New York, he continues to live a full life in his native Salford, perfectly at home amongst the artisans in the string of local pubs. Just one more reason why Mark E Smith is a truly unique phenomenon with assured longevity. The book is the only authorised account of the enigma that is Mark E Smith. Author Mick Middles has been a close friend of Smith for over 25 years, and the book, written with Smith's complete approval and assistance, delves deep into the heart of that enigma.

L'auteur : Neville
Editeur: Trafford Publishing
Détails: Neville was born in Barbados, West Indies in 1905 into a poor English family—nine boys and one girl—where he was raised and educated in a traditional Christian manner. His father who knew about the power of imagining, along with the help of his industrious sons, made the Goddard's into the largest business presence in the island, and at his death left all ten children independently wealthy. At age seventeen Neville left Barbados for New York City where he worked in retail for several years until he became a dancer in Broadway shows. This led to a stint in London where he was introduced to metaphysical thought, and upon returning to New York he began to teach the law of imagining in 1938 to ever-growing audiences in the East, Los Angeles and San Francisco. When he moved his family to Los Angeles in the early 1950s he was attracting crowds of 2,000 for his Sunday talks. Everyone wanted something—homes, new jobs, mates, money—and he successfully taught them how to fulfill those desires through the use of their all-powerful human imaginations. The techniques, testimonies from his audiences, the creative formula, visions, dreams and Bible interpretations are discussed simply and in detail in these lectures. They encourage any seeker to apply his or her imagination for success, and ultimately lead to the appreciation that there is no intermediary between God (man's I AM) and man. Starting in 1959 he had a series of six visions over a three and a half year period—resurrection/birth from above; David; splitting of the temple/ascension; and the dove's descent. Then he understood his mission: To first experience these visions, understand their meanings, and then teach the meaning of these signs that are given to man after multiple lifetimes and all states of consciousness have been played by each individual. These signs confirm the awakening of man's soul. Man's origin and destiny are divine—from unity into diversity back to unity, with no loss of individuality. All is forgiven and the exile, the prodigal returns to Lordship, greatly expanded by the journey through limitation, illusion and a sleep likened unto death.

Détails: Winner of the 2017 EDGAR AWARD FOR BEST NOVEL and the 2017 INTERNATIONAL THRILLER WRITERS AWARD FOR BEST NOVEL FROM THE AWARD-WINNING CREATOR OF FARGO COMES "ONE THE YEAR'S BEST SUSPENSE NOVELS" (NEW YORK TIMES). On a foggy summer night, eleven people--ten privileged, one down-on-his-luck painter--depart Martha's Vineyard on a private jet headed for New York. Sixteen minutes later, the unthinkable happens: the plane plunges into the ocean. The only survivors are the painter Scott Burroughs and a four-year-old boy, who is now the last remaining member of an immensely wealthy and powerful media mogul's family. Was it by chance that so many influential people perished? Or was something more sinister at work? A storm of media attention brings Scott fame that quickly morphs into notoriety and accusations, and he scrambles to salvage truth from the wreckage. Amid trauma and chaos, the fragile relationship between Scott and the young boy grows and glows at the heart of this stunning novel, raising questions of fate, morality, and the inextricable ties that bind us together. Kristin Hannah raves, "Noah Hawley really knows how to keep a reader turning the pages... a complex, compulsively readable thrill ride of a novel."

Genre: Political Science
Détails: 'The Fall of Darkness' clamours for revolution, as the efficacious means of cleansing many African states whose leaders tend toward jungle rules, emanating from their disrespect for the rule of law, which makes living in such places seem like living in the jungle. While leaders in other democracies strive for what to do for their countries these ones, as political vampires, are out to suck their own countries dry, and plunging them into poverty of money, mores and morals. The novel predicts a silver-lining similar to that experience in Matorka: the leaders who were afraid of revolution did not know when they started the revolution themselves, in such a way that it soared and raged, and at the end all messengers of darkness in Matorka stood on a dangerous precipice of extinction.

Détails: Seminar paper from the year 2005 in the subject American Studies - Literature, grade: 1,7, University of Kassel, course: Hauptseminar "Antebellum in American Short Fiction", 13 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: "A skillful literary artist has constructed a tale, ... there should be no word written, of which the tendency, direct or indirect, is not to the one pre-established design..." Edgar Allan Poe, who was praised as given the title of "one of the greatest journalistic critic of his time" by literary critics, stressed unity, totality, and prescribed design. And "The Fall of the House of Usher", is proved to be a very successful story to demonstrate Poe's adherence of his own principle of constructiveness and his structural art. The intention of this research paper is, therefore, to examine how Poe emphasized unity of effect in theory and how it is fulfilled in practice especially in one of his best-known stories. In a close reading of "Usher", the author is above all impressed by the melancholic tone that Poe obviously intends to raise at the very beginning of this story. For this reason, how Poe implements his technique by making tone obedient to the unity of effect will be first of all examined in this paper. Obviously, tone should be identified with atmosphere. According to Poe, unity of setting is another important requirement for achieving the unity of effect in prose writing, which will be studied in the second section. If, as critics maintain, characters are skilfully adapted to the circumstances which surround them are a general device in Poe's tales, it is in "Usher" in particular. The third section intends to show how characters are made to fit into the desolate house and dreary environment to achieve the desired effect in this tale. Finally, with the ideal arrangement of effective tone, setting, characters, Poe gains his battlefield to carry out unity of effect in plot in "Usher". In order to attain the unity of plot in literary writing, Poe stressed both "unity of time" and "unity of action", as essential parts in his theory on unity of effect. In "Usher", both of these aspects are completely fulfilled through the brief time span in which the story happens, a coherent plot line and a "mutual relationship" between incidents. Hence, Poe's emphasis on unity of plot in theory, and how it is accomplished in "Usher" in the last section will be explored in the last section of this paper. Consistent with Poe's theory of "unity", "totality" and "full design", four aspects, namely tone, setting, characters and plot through which Poe attempts to create a vision of "unity of effect" in this tale are examined in this paper.

L'auteur : Jonathan L. Howard
Editeur: Macmillan
Détails: Johannes Cabal, a necromancer of some little infamy, has come into possession of a vital clue that may lead him to his ultimate goal: a cure for death. The path is vague, however, and certainly treacherous as it takes him into strange territories that, quite literally, no one has ever seen before. The task is too dangerous to venture upon alone, so he must seek assistance, comrades for the coming travails. So assisted—ably and otherwise—by his vampiric brother, Horst, and by the kindly accompaniment of a criminologist and a devil, he will encounter ruins and diableries, mystery and murder, the depths of the lowest pit and a city of horrors. London, to be exact. Yet even though Cabal has risked such peril believing he understands the dangers he faces, he is still underestimating them. He is walking into a trap of such arcane complexity that even the one who drew him there has no idea of its true terrors. As the snare closes slowly and subtly around them, it may be that there will be no survivors at all. The Fall of the House of Cabal is the fifth book in Jonathan L. Howard's acclaimed Johannes Cabal series.
