and more with our ultimate Travancore guide. A small, architecturally unique suburb along the commuter arteries into Melbourne. Travancore has a below average violent crime rate and an average property crime rate for Melbourne. WHAT'S LIVING IN Travancore LIKE? Tucked between the Tullamarine Freeway and Mount Alexander Road is the small suburb Travancore. Besides a couple coffee shops, it doesn't have many local attractions, but its appeal is the quick commute into Melbourne's CBD just a few kilometers away. For active residents, it does offer Moonee Ponds Creek Park, which sees runners and cyclists on its trails that run along Moonee Ponds Creek. The suburb is most known for its Art Deco-influenced homes and apartments that give it a unique architectural flavor. Some of these houses are stunning. Travancore has a very large rental market and most residents live in apartments. People who want to live here can expect to pay above average rent and mortgage rates. Travancore is bordered on the north by Ascot Vale, on the east by Parkville, on the south and west by Flemington.

This LINK takes you to the Globe blog for pictures of the tour. We were a tad annoyed with this before we got there. We had the impression that this was a Sam Wanamaker Playhouse production, starting in late September. In fact, it has been touring the UK and Europe since May and we could have seen it in Salisbury, Portsmouth, Oxford, Exeter or Brighton at less than half the price with far easier travel. So it's NOT utilizing the Wanamaker magic, nor is it designed and blocked for the stage, it's merely utilizing the availability of a second venue at The Globe and one which spends most of the summer shut. In fact doing so with touring productions is a very good idea and could and should be followed up. However, we did not think it was made clear enough to early bookers that this was near the end of a UK tour, though perhaps I should have worked out that plays don't come to the Globe's theatres for just 12 days, and noticed ON TOUR. It finishes in Liverpool at the Everyman, where it spends all of October. I've seen the play twice. I loved the stripped down, small cast 2013 Tobacco Factory version set in the Edwardian era, while the large and elaborate 2014 RSC production was set in the 1960s, and was one of the very few RSC productions which failed to engage me. The first question here was whether the candlelit concept of a Jacobean private theatre was going to be continued with a touring play set in 1966. The second is they'd specifically said "1966" which meant my eagle eye for historical accuracy on the 1960s was twitching away before I got seated. When you impose a mighty modern concept on a Shakespeare play, you can stay faithful to the text, as did the Baz Lurhmann Romeo and Juliet with Leonardo DiCaprio, but if you start cutting lines wholesale, there comes a point of balance where you should go the whole way and create a new work (West Side Story, say) or rein yourself in. The overwhelming thing we felt here was that the cuts and doubling lost too much of the text, rendering the plot spotty and hard to follow. The instant synopsis, or reminder of the plot. Valentine and Proteus are best buddies in Verona. Proteus is in love with the sweet Julia, who has a comic servant Lucetta. Valentine sets off for Milan to study in the big city. He goes with his comic servant, Speed. When he gets there he falls in love with Silvia, the daughter of the Duke of Milan. Proteus visits with his comic servant Launce, who has a dog. Proteus falls for Silvia too. (Poor Silvia hasn't got a comic servant). Valentine tells his best mate that he's going to elope with Silvia by climbing up a rope ladder to her room. Proteus foils the plan by revealing all to the Duke. So Valentine gets banished. Meanwhile, Julia has decided to go and seek Proteus by disguising herself as a boy. In the forest, Valentine acts tough (I killed a man) to gain entry to the outlaw band (or here, The Outlaws. A band.) The band are led by the Duke's exiled brother, Antonio ; forget that, there is not a mention of it here. Julia turns up. Proteus tries to rape her. Valentine rescues her. In spite of seeing the attempted rape, Julia is reconciled with Proteus. The Duke allows Valentine to marry Silvia. That's a highly truncated version, but so is this production. This must have been designed with the outside festival venues in mind, big, trying to get a "non-Shakespeare" audience enthused by all the bustle and music and activity. Then you take it into the Wanamaker Playhouse. You retain the candle lighting, which I guess is all you can do, though you spotlight the inner stage with keyboards and drum kit. There in that wooden reproduction of a Jacobean indoor theatre, it felt too big and painted with too broad a brush in the performances for the intimacy of the space. The red, orange, yellow framed inner stage has ladders either side which are used a great deal, as is the platform on top. There's an awful lot of climbing going on. Incidentally that inner frame is meant to represent Top of The Pops. Hang on, the play's set in 1966, when Top of The Pops was black and white. That curved corner rectangle is surely mid 70s … but let's not start on 1966 authenticity in costume or concept, it's all wildly awry. As it happens, we had spent the afternoon at the Victoria & Albert Museum's 60s exhibition "You Say You Want a Revolution? Records and Rebels 1966-1970″ so were steeped in the look and feel of 1966. It used similar motifs … the letters and messages became 7" 45 rpm singles, ostensibly played on a Dansette record player.I don't know how they smashed them rather than tore them up, because most 45s would survive being thrown on the floor. Were they made for the production? I liked the division between Verona, a place of beige cardigans, knee length skirts and easy-listening music, and Milan, centre of pop. That's right for the era … easy listening sold in vast numbers, and we 60s survivors recall our horror and disgust that a year later, 1967, Englebert Humperdink's dire Release Me kept Strawberry Fields Forever from the top of the charts. Before the play we heard recordings (a first for the Wanamaker Playhouse) of Jim Reeves Make The World Go Away, and Bob Lind's Elusive Butterfly. The Veronese get really excited when playing Jim Reeves Distant Drums on the Dansette. Jim Reeves was only heard in Irish pubs at the time, and the sound of Distant Drums on the jukebox meant "Run! Hippie!" to me. They arrive in Milan to a pop song, Milano, one of the better all-out pieces of music. Everyone on the stage had to work so hard, what with doubling or trebling roles and having to play instruments as well. The music was somewhat weak, because mainly there wasn't an actual song, the exception being Thurio doing James Brown on a torch soul ballad about Silvia (a high point musically and in performance). Fred Thomas as "The Musician" was clearly the "real musician" on stage, notable when he picked up guitar, played a bass solo into the interval, or when he took over drums and simply hit them harder. You did notice that the recording played to start the interval … Muddy Waters I'm A Man, and at the end, James Brown's It's A Man's, Man's World, were so much stronger. This is real touring one for all, all for one, non-stop work. Guy Hughes played Valentine, which also meant playing guitar, bass guitar and saxophone. Fred Thomas as "musician" played electric guitar, acoustic guitar, keys, banjo and drums, as well as being Crab The Dog. Amber James had to cover Lucetta (Julia's comic servant), Sir Thurio, the prattish swain, Panthino, play drums (pretty well too), and do the chorus singing stuff. Aruhan Galieva had to play Silvia and keyboards and bass guitar. T.J. Holmes had replaced Adam Keast as Speed / Eglamour, and as well as taking on the twin roles, had to play bass guitar as well … not a normal understudy assignment. Face it, everybody had to play bass guitar at one time or another. I reflected on the years I spent learning how to play it with depression. It's obviously dead easy to anyone with half a musical ear. Herein lies some of the issues of a cast of nine. You could have got away with eleven or twelve, but nine was too few. Lucetta's has been the funniest role the other times we've seen it, but was cut to too little here … and not enough made of the major scene with Julia and the letters, nor when Julia dresses as a boy to disguise herself as she follows Proteus into the forest. Garry Cooper doubled The Duke and his exiled brother Antonio, but as Antonio, now leader of the outlaws in the forest, he had lost all his lines. The Outlaws are now a hippy rock band, and Valentine has to prove his toughness so that he can join them by playing lead guitar. You'd have to know the play to realize that the character hanging about at the rear wasn't the Duke with his jacket off and a headscarf on, as everyone else had donned hippie garb anyway. It was another among many examples of key plot points being cut. We should remember from the glorious Shakespeare in Love (film and stage play) that "the dog" was a major hit with audiences. It always is. Was it a good idea to make the musician into "the dog"? OK, it gave Launce, the servant (Charlotte Mills) a couple of new, good funny bits in casting the musician as the dog, but it lost a dozen others. As this toured Europe, they had no possibility of using a real dog because of our thankfully still intact quarantine laws. Charlotte Mills excelled in that dreaded, really really hard "Shakespearean clown with unfunny jokes" role. The cuts confused the Proteus / Valentine dynamic. While their passionate embrace on meeting again was funny, I think their hidden love relationship is tacked on to the text extraneously. Garry Cooper as The Duke of Milan (TOUR, not Wanamaker), Julia left, Silvia right There are some bizarre performances. You can't take your eyes off Garry Cooper as the Duke of Milan, jerking spasmodically, intoning the lines richly, bending over like Olivier's Richard III at times as he twitches, but going beyond "big" or "large" as a performance to absolutely off the clock. I can see how strong it is in the open air at Castle Donnington or Brighton Festival, but it really overwhelms the tight space in the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse. What's it supposed to be? I wondered if it was the aristocratic drugged up pop managers of the era, as experienced by The Who, permanently speeding on purple hearts. It comes out almost as a parody on 19th century Shakesperean over-acting. As I say, very commanding too, but odd. I would give Guy Hughes as Valentine the "man of the match award" though he channeled his physical similarity to John Cleese, aided by the moustache. Sorry, I thought Proteus came over weakly. He lacked physical presence … and the last RSC production had exactly the same problem, though in Stratford it was both the gentlemen who failed to make an impact. Here Valentine was appropriately a fall guy and funny. Proteus has got to be more macho and more full of himself, or at least more of a conniving slime. This guy is stabbing his best mate in the back, by trying to pull his girl. He's got to be more of a bastard. On the other hand, the attempted rape of Silvia was done powerfully, and for a change she didn't just shrug it off but stayed traumatized through to the end. Better done than usual. Why was Silvia dressed in early 60s or late 50s Italian? I don't get the costume reference, though giving Julia Bob Dylan hat when she dresses as a boy was OK … but could have gone further. OK, we were negative on the costumes throughout. As to taking a pop version with electric music into the Sam Wanamaker … well, yes, use the available space between stuff designed for the theatre. Put touring stuff in there, though the candles then become a bit daft. But ominously, I counted a dozen empty seats after the interval in the lower galley near me alone. At the very high ticket prices, that's a lot. The Wanamaker usually does lose a few at the break due to hard bench fatigue, but that's too many in a small premium area on a Saturday evening. It happens a lot in the West End, where big companies buy up corporate seats for foreign VIPs well in advance (they've always got some visiting) and the foreign VIPs leave at half time, not being able to follow the words. But that shouldn't happen at The Globe or RSC which aren't part of the same West End networks and sell out to members. I would hazard it was either surprise or distaste (I noticed a couple with hands on their ears in the guitar playing) clearing the seats, but who knows? I enjoyed the enthusiasm and effort from a young cast. I thought there were some good ideas, but overall, it lost Shakespeare's play, and the replacement bits weren't coherent enough to compensate. It's the third time I've seen the play, and thought two productions weak. I gave The Tobacco Factory four stars for their Edwardian small cast romp, the RSC two for its very large cast, no expense spared slickly early 60s Italian version. This had more energy than the RSC, and the Tobacco Factory proved small cast can work, but in this one the plot was rendered incoherent. Sorry, this has to be another two.

The holidays are a chance for families and friends to come together over food and gifts, racking up some serious quality time. Yet for some of us, there can be a rush of anxiety when it comes to the thought of going home for the holidays. If that's you, I'm here to share that you're not alone. It's easy to feel overwhelmed or out of control when faced with situations or people you've transitioned away from. And because we can't all avoid going home completely, you may find yourself having to navigate some less than favorable conversations while there. It's easy to feel overwhelmed or out of control when faced with situations or people you've transitioned away from. To help, here are some actionable ways to create a more civil environment while at home for the holidays if conversations get sticky. You know the family member or friend of the family who is habitually offering unsolicited advice or suggestions? Trust me, I understand they are not easy to deal with—but more than likely you aren't going to change their ways. So, instead of responding out of annoyance and anger, try simply saying something along the lines of, "Thank you, I'll look into that." You of course don't actually have to look into it, but it will at least allow them to feel acknowledged so you don't have to keep awkwardly avoiding eye contact throughout the night. Perhaps there's a member of your family or your significant other's family who you just can't seem to crack. The relationship just hasn't been there between the two of you, but you'd like to extend an olive branch. Why not break the ice with giving them a compliment? According to Forbes, studies show that receiving a compliment has the same social effects on a person as receiving money. Who wouldn't react positively to that? Not only will they feel more favorable towards you, but giving compliments also has a strong effect on how we (the givers) feel. Research has proven that the act of giving compliments is similar to that of giving a gift and naturally boosts our happiness and levels of joy. Serving up a compliment—even if it's as simple as "I loved your holiday card this year!"— will alleviate some stress for both parties. Take extending compliments even further and ask how you can help. Sometimes the reason this person may be so moody is because they're generally the one stuck with the brunt of responsibilities during the holiday season. A little help may go a long way. Also: It allows you some one-on-one time to get to know each other and spark conversation. Politics, social justice, and other issues are definitely sticky subject matter. Yet, no matter how well known it is that family gatherings are not the appropriate time to bring them up—somehow, they always seem to become a topic of discussion. While discourse can be beneficial, if you know from experience that engaging with someone has never led to anything positive in the past, it's OK to hold off. Instead, try sitting back and listening. Though you may not completely agree, there can (hopefully) be some points of the discussion you can agree on—or at least agree to disagree on in a compromising way. With little ammo for this person to take shots with, they'll begin to lose steam and eventually the conversation will just transition itself. In the event that a gentle compromise is not something you can do in the moment or they just won't let up—it is always a good idea to step away from the situation and take a breather. Taking a moment to have a deep breath and come back to center is a good way to process thoughts and emotions more clearly. Use this time to take a walk, sit outside and take in nature, or listen to your favorite songs or podcasts, like the guided meditations in the Shine app. The simplest out if you need a moment: taking a "bathroom break." Allow yourself to take as long as necessary before returning to the situation. Sometimes, you might find yourself simply a bystander to a tense conversation if other members of your family are at odds. This can affect us just as much, if not more, than when it's pointed in our direction—especially if we care for both parties involved. Instead of allowing them to upset one another or those around them with their issues, try politely interrupting and changing the subject. A light-hearted interjection may be just what's needed to calm the tension. No response is most definitely an adequate response. There isn't anyone more in control of your emotions and how you feel than you are. No response is most definitely an adequate response. Maintain that control by not engaging in conversations or situations that you know will be upsetting. Protect your energy and try not to give in to things that do not serve you. Navigate the holiday season with our 7-day breathing challenge, full of exercises to help you calm it down. All it takes is 7 minutes a day.

When Should Kids be Allowed Online? We asked you what you thought, and you told us! Here is what people from the BCS community have to say about our last Speak Up question: Should kids be allowed online alone and, if so, at what age? "Well, I think [children] at age 13 at least should be able to go online without parent supervision. Younger children probably don't have the educational needs to be online without parent supervision. They don't know the dangers. They would be at the bottom of the food chain per se." - Candace Peterson BWA 6th grader "I think my answer is that kids should be about 10 or 11 to be able to scroll around in the Internet, but it also depends on their maturity level. I am 10 years old and I am allowed to not just search something random up because you don't know everything that can show up." - Emmery Wells "I believe that kids should be 13 or older when they get to get to go online by themselves. There are a lot of dangers on the internet and I would still monitor them even if they are 13 or above." - Sara Gotzman BWA Junior "Responsible and mature kids should be allowed at age 9, probably, perhaps even 8!" - Austin McGinnis "I think it matters if the kid is mature or not. If their parents feel that their kid isn't mature enough or isn't ready, then they shouldn't go online. A kid can be 14 or 15 but really isn't mature, while a 10 or 11 year old can be mature. I really think it all matters if they are mature or not." - Afnaan Damrah "Yes. They should be [allowed online]. There is not an age limit as long as they are mature and responsible enough." - Evin Wells "I think all kids should be allowed online, as long as their parents are with them. But I believe kids shouldn't be on the Internet without supervision until they are about 14, and even then they should be monitored. It isn't that kids aren't responsible: other people on the Internet aren't responsible and could pose dangers for kids who are completely innocent and unaware that they are in danger." - Ruqaiyah Damrah BEC Sophomore "I think that kids should be allowed online, they should be responsible with it. The best way to make sure is to put parental locks on the computer. The internet is a dangerous place but it can be used in a very entertaining way, so as long as the kid is responsible, yes, they should be allowed online." - Caden Wheeler "I think kids she be allowed online alone at the age of ten, but only if there's certain filters on the device, if not I would suggest waiting to about thirteen [to] fourteen before being allowed online without supervision." - Moriah Heykamp "I think that kids should be able to go online for school or educational reasons at a young age but if anything happens they should talk to a trustable adult to help them work out the problem. If they are older (11 and up) maybe [they] can do other things since they are older but if anything happens they should still talk to an adult so they can… help them fix the problem." - Desiree Wicks Photo taken by Shayla Miller, BWA Junior

April 26, 2004 by DrMabuse More than one million women (or 500,000 from the more conservative media outlets) marched on Washington yesterday. But apparently it wasn't enough to dominate the news. The Mobilization March on November 15, 1969, the largest antiwar protest in U.S. history, had a crowd estimated between 250,000 and 500,000 and it caused Nixon to announce two months later that ending the war would be "a major goal of United States policy." Somehow, I don't think we'll be getting anything like that from Bush (with twice the turnout of Mobilization) in June. That's nothing less than a goddam travesty. [UPDATE: And a psuedo-blackout from the blogosphere too. Nothing whatsoever about the rally at Megnut, another tired potshot at Wonkette, an acknowledgment over at Oliver's (although overshadowed by a long essay, "Can the Right Fight Terrorism?"), a photo at Atrios, and some live coverage at Kos. But it's all pretty much reflecting the status quo. 1 million people. What does it take to be newsworthy? Or have protests lost their efficacy? Or is "feminist" a dirty word? Or does nobody want to talk about it? And, no, Scribbling Woman, you ain't chopped liver.] [4/29/04 UPDATE: Just talked with someone who got back from Washington. She said there was definitely a million.] ← Previous Post There Isn't Any Narrative Value in "Only a Northern Song" Next Post → The Latest Meme rasputin April 26, 2004 at 4:41 pm Bush doesn't pay attention to protest marches. He's also said he doesn't read newspapers, and gets his all information from his advisors (God help us) so he may only be partially aware that the march even took place. Like many leaders, he's convinced he knows what's best for us all, and protests, regardless of size are as the cries of children who don't want to eat their vegetables. He believes that God wanted him to be president. People on missions from God are rarely interested in debate. In anycase, no amount of people protesting to protect abortion is likely to convince him — it merely confirms his faith. "The legions of Evil have come to Washington to shake my resolve. But I shall be strong! Look at how many! There is much to be done!" lizpenn April 26, 2004 at 5:08 pm re Wonkette's potshot: ooh, i'm so sorry my neck didn't look perfectly botoxed (or whatever you do to surgically erase time from necks) as i protested for the civil rights of half the population. maybe i should go on 'the swan.' jeez louise. mjones April 26, 2004 at 7:13 pm Tom Working April 26, 2004 at 9:48 pm Rasputin, I would argue that Dubyah's disposition and Administration stance on issues are more indicative of the politico-bourgeois family and culture he comes from. This kind is rarely seen at the front of an army but rather at the back of it. One morality or spiritual path (and its laws, ALL of its laws) is as good as another. He comes from the kind of mentality that would make a whole new church just so he could divorce his wife. Susan April 26, 2004 at 9:52 pm It's fantastic that it got such a turnout, but I really feel defeated about the power of protest these days. Like others have said, this administration couldn't care less. Charles April 26, 2004 at 11:39 pm I thought it was sort of weird also. I'm not sure what it means. They say the objective count was about 800K flowing into D.C. That's a hell of a lot of people – more in fact than the number who live in The District. Even The Daily Show didn't mention it that much. There are probably a number of factors that account for the media ignoring it: – The erosion of women's rights has been a slow insidious trickle from different states over the past few years. Unlike Vietnam, it has not been a visible fight that was on the TV every night for eight years. So the concept of protecting the reproductive freedoms of women is a more abstract and indeterminate cause. – There is no real counterculture anymore in America – certainly no youth counterculture. The Mobilization March focused on the war, but the message was much larger; it was also about a generation coming together to effect change. This march was filled with a lot more older people. We also now have the cult of celebrity, which defines a public event by the number and caliber of actors that attend. The famous were women in their 60s like Whoopee Goldberg, Susan Sarandon, Hillary Clinton . . .all these old "b"-list celebrities who are always trotted out to represent the Left. And they just don't have credibility – we all know they're tools who do commercials for long-distance companies and soft drinks, and we imagine them sending their PAs out for a latte run in the SUV. Gone are the days when an activist could be famous for being an activist. The march attracted no big actors or musicians or other well-known personalities. So the media probably saw it as "boring." They don't want to cover stuff nowadays unless it's entertaining and sensational, since that's what boosts ratings. – The Mobilization March also covered a huge umbrella of different community groups, particularly churches and civic organisations. The war was very unpopular by that point, and condemned by a variety of organisations. But very few organisations (and even fewer religious groups) are willing to stand up for women's reproductive rights. It's too decisive an issue. People either feel one way or the other, and there is no middle ground. I think the people marching against the war felt they really could help end it – no one believe marching for women's rights is going to change anyone's mind. So it lacks the energy and sense of history the war march had – and the media sees this and decides why bother covering it – it's not really "news" and won't change anything. – Rightly or wrongly, people feel it doesn�t affect them. It�s not the same as people they know coming home in body bags. Basically, the anti-war message was very simple: we can�t win, so bring the soldiers home instead of sending more over every day to get killed. The message here is don�t allow the government to take away your most basic right to make private decisions about your own life. That�s a really hard thing to cover in a media context, because it is happening so insidiously. They haven�t outlawed abortion yet, they�ve just nibbled around the edge of the cookie. They�re very slowly taking away the option for the poor, people under 18, the rural, minorities, the less-educated, etc. These groups are always marginalized in the media � just like we have specials and TV movies when a blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl from a �good� family is abducted, but hear nothing of the hundreds of minority and poor kids snatched each year. Sooner or later, they are going to try and get rid of ALL reproductive rights. Ashcroft has actually made this the NUMBER ONE mission of the DOJ�s Civil Rights division (which is why I turned down a job offer from them recently.) His reasoning is they are protecting the �civil rights of the fetus.� That�s a quote. But it�s the old �First they came for the Jews . . .� idea. People (and therefore the media) won�t really care until little Melissa out in Starbucks-land is forced to carry an unwanted child. CAAF April 27, 2004 at 7:45 am I really don't have much to add except thanks for taking this one up, Ed. My own sense is that Bush and his administration ignores these things hoping that we'll go away. It's a stance that feels strangely akin to "not bargaining with terrorists." Except, of course, we're not terrorists. We're American citizens, exercising our democratic rights and being ignored by our monarch, I mean, our president. Bondgirl April 27, 2004 at 8:20 am What others said… The Bush administration chooses to ignore that which it finds distasteful. Plus, they think abortion makes baby jesus cry. All the major news outlets ran prominent stories on it, that I saw, and Hank Steuver did one of his funny, and oddly touching in the end, pieces on it in the WP. Kevin Holtsberry April 27, 2004 at 10:41 am If a million people marched on DC to demand the end of abortion on demand would you expect Bush to act on it? Is there something about this kind of march that demands Bush act differently? Does a million people demand a certain level of respect? 500,000? I am not sure what you mean by this post. The Right to Life March in DC always has massive crowds and I don't belive the media or the blogosphere covers it in any more detail. I certainly saw plenty of coverage of this weekend's event on TV and I don't even watch much. In terms of popularity, abortion on demand without restrictions is not supported by a majority of Americans according to most major polling data. As with a lot if issues, the two diehard groups are polarized and a good chunk of the public is awkwardly in the middle. Although, I suspect Bush as the evil monster just works better emotionally in this case . . . Given that abortion is for the most part still legal, the question you should be asking is not what Bush would do if a million people showed up demanding that it be outlawed — the question is, why aren't those million people marching now? The answer, it seems to me, is that Bush is already doing something about it, so they feel no need to march. Bush is anti-abortion. This isn't a matter of two opposing sides struggling to convince a neutral party — the pro-life movement has Bush on their side already. Whether the people he answers to on that issue are marching on his lawn, or sitting at home, speaking to pollsters, or sending letters and campaign contributions, he would no doubt continue with his current course of action. He's already doing what they want him to do. In anycase, the point still stands: his position is based on his own morality and those poll numbers you mentioned — marches, pro life or pro choice result in no change of policy, although for different reasons. In all of these posts, I've not seen anyone call Bush an evil monster. Just that the power of protest leaves him completely unmoved. That's not monsterous, just annoying. It's not like anyone's accusing him of murdering someone and making it look like a suicide, or using the CIA to acquire drugs for personal use or anything like that. No. Bush isn't monsterous. Just wrong. scribblingwoman April 26, 2004 at 6:02 pm Marching for women's lives Go to ms. musings for a series of exhilarating, exuberant, posts on the march yesterday. Addendum (4:27): More on…

We just came back from Karlsruhe where we attended LEARNTEC this week to have a look at the top trends in digital education for 2018. LEARNTEC is one of the top events in Germany when it comes to e-learning and digital education. With more than 280 exhibitors, over 250 speakers, and a large congress, LEARNTEC provides a great overview on state-of-the-art technologies in learning and inspires to think about the future of education. We were in particular interested to learn, how Artificial Intelligence (AI) is used in education and which approaches align with our own efforts to make this technology accessible in digital learning. Here is a short recap of our visit in case you missed LEARNTEC 2018 yourself. Before describing three trends in greater detail, let us quickly talk about two other prominent topics this year. First, Gamification seems like a wildcard technology that can be added everywhere. While it is certainly successful in different settings, there is also a growing group of people that have mixed feelings about it because it is mentioned so excessively. Secondly, Blended Learning is all around. While it is a meaningful concept, the implementation of it still comes with different obstacles. Issues such as an insufficient infrastructure or missing hardware to provide the experience to every learner are still omnipresent. Besides those two topics, we identified three other hot trends this year. Virtual Reality (VR) is still a huge trend in digital education. While its mainstream usage may be stagnating, education offers a very large set of use cases for VR. One of the main use cases is employee training. On the one hand, this can support apprentices at their work and training. On the other hand, VR also allows getting an initial experience for new physical environments like cockpits of a crane. At goedle.io, we are also exploring how VR is changing the analytics space and what additional information can be tracked when taking physical sensors into account. For this setting, however, we weren't able to find an outstanding solution. Since learning analytics is still not widespread and platforms only begin to implement it, VR analytics as a source for analyzing learners' behavior hasn't found its way into commercial products yet. Adaptive Learning is one of the most often mentioned ideas these days and there are different understandings of it. There exists a learner-centric view and a system-centric approach. For the learner-centric view, the applications offer different learning theories to strengthen the learners' knowledge. For example by changing the order of exercises or content. For the system-centric approach, some Learning Management Systems (LMS) make use of rule-based algorithms to build learning pathways. In a nutshell, if a learner fails a course, their learning pathway will select a new branch based on a given rule. We see a lot of potential in this development and we have recently used machine learning algorithms that can create and test new learning pathways automatically. From our perspective, the next step is to build pathways not only based on static rules but instead use the predicted future behavior of a student for adaptive learning. To be more precise, we are investigating at-risk student prediction to modify learning pathways in such a way that the number of course dropouts is reduced. Prediction of at-risk students can be seen as a form of churn prediction and more about this topic can be found here. An increasing number of LMS' are including functionalities to build quiz apps based on course material. This extends the use cases of many LMS' and improves the user experience. This can also be seen as the transition to mobile learning where course material is brought to smartphones and tablets, and allows students to learn independently of their location. However in many cases, it is not necessary to maintain an entire LMS but instead a simple app is sufficient for certain learning scenarios. Think of a small company with teams in different locations. For example, a few sales representatives abroad. These teams can now easily be trained at much lower costs with a mobile app. All in all, LEARNTEC 2018 has been an inspiring visit for us and we are certainly planning to come back in 2019. We have seen different areas where AI, and in particular machine learning, can make a substantial difference. This aligns very well with our idea of AI in education. If you are interested to learn more about learning analytics, dynamic content adaptation, and AI in education, please reach out to us.

MediSoft East Africa was started in April 2011 by two medical doctors, pursuing postgraduate studies in Radiology at the University of Nairobi and a computer science graduate who was then pursuing her MBA. Creation of this company was inspired by the glaring underuse (or lack of use) of available medical I.T solutions in Kenya and the region. As we talked to potential users, it emerged that main reasons why practices have not tapped existing technology to improve productivity was mainly limited information on available solutions and time to find the information. Inhibitive costs for such systems and concerns about support (as most vendors are from other continents) were also major hindrances. Having a great interest in medical informatics and knowing what is available and possible, we decided to be part of the solution. To be Africa's leading Radiology ICT provider. This includes installation and configuration of medical software, training and continuous support at a very affordable cost. Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) that fits your budget. Filmless Printing Solution that will reduce recurrent costs tremendously at your radiology practice. Radiology Information System to manage workflow at your radiology department/practice. Voice recognition system that dramatically reduces time consumed during clinical documentation and reporting. Dicom Viewers that meet the most basic to the most complex needs in visualization of images within radiology.

Based on the look of our yard this morning, last night's rainstorm was as intense as it had sounded. Our patio chairs were blown off our porch and broken branches were swept across the yard. Still, by morning, calm had settled. The whipping winds from the night had been replaced with a lushness that can only come from a good spring rain. As I walked to my morning class, I absorbed the full scene across campus: the puddles, the scattered debris, but most of all, the freshness that lingers once a storm has passed. And sometimes, on a Thursday afternoon, you simply don't feel like you have time to deal with a broken van door and an odd stockpile of really FROZEN frozen foods in your freezer. But then Friday morning comes, and you realize that all storms pass. Van doors eventually get fixed, and schedules fall back into order, and you accept that frozen foods don't mean that much in the grand scheme of life. Plus, sometimes, the storm makes you more aware of your surroundings than you would have otherwise been, like how I kept encountering this refrigerator artwork each time I chipped more food free from its freezer encasement. Yes, storms pass, and in their wake, there's often some refreshment.

Ula Ruth, The Rally @ Mercury Lounge, 1/14/16 By Harrison June at 2:00 PM, Jan 18th, 2016 in Live I caught wind of the guys in rising New York band Ula Ruth just earlier this week with a heads up to their catchy single from last month, "Strung Out". The four-piece style themselves as a moody, urbane form of indie rock. 2016 ought to be a year for them to seek to establish themselves around an upcoming EP. Live, they impressed and I'm optimistic to see how their year goes from here. Their set was punctuated by a timely tribute of David Bowie's "Let's Dance" that singer Nic James self-deprecatingly joked about being impossible to follow up upon. We're all gonna miss that guy. Italo-rockers The Rally opened the gig. Their energy had the place quite full early, and everyone with a beverage shared in guitarist Eli Razavi's toast. Hoping to hear news of more recordings soon or a stronger push from them this year to, as I like their live sound. Check out "I Was Wrong" as an apéritif.

Guidelines for Indigo Adults indicate they came in about 1950 – 1972. My birth, however, occurred August 19, 1945. I never considered or knew myself to be and Indigo Child. Recently, it dawned on me that, Yes, I am an Indigo. In the last year, it has become clear my next step in my life purpose involves mentoring and teaching the New Children. These include Crystals, Rainbow and Sun Children. The purpose, also, includes assisting parents and others connected to these children. Indigo's often have been described as Warriors. They come in to break down old matrices and systems of control and power that no longer serve the common good. I describe a following signs, in reference to myself. These signs, however, can also apply to other Indigo Adults. More signs also exist. As a young child, teen and adult, I surrounded myself with books. I thirsted, as an adult, to understand the deeper core meaning behind esoteric religions, psychology and wisdom teachings of the world. At 24, I knew intuitively with full certainty that the most important thing in life focused on my inner emotional and spiritual growth – outer material career meant nothing. I needed to discover and know my true nature. Initially, had a challenging time at school. I had no interest. This shifted in grade 3 when a teacher talked to my mother. I have no memory what my mother said to me. From that time on, however, I totally focused on doing my best. Even though I disliked authority and control, unlike some Indigo's I refrained from being a rebel. In my family, my father as an alcoholic raged at my mother. I felt unsafe and insecure and, as a result, I withdrew and went inside myself. In addition, I became quiet and invisible. As a Peacemaker or Unifier, here is more explanation. The Unifier portrays my spiritual archetype. A Unifier has the ability to find and hold peace and balance between opposites. With any gift/talent a shadow quality presents itself as a challenge to move through. So, at the low end, of the polarity of Unifier, lies the victim which manifests as either anger or hopelessness/helplessness. This polarity has been a major ongoing challenge for most of my life. See more in feelings of despair below.

At the age of 14, Selenay Dagdelen has the talent and experience of folks twice her age and more. We've all seen The Voice at least once, or one hundred times, at this point. There are so many really talented people who come across that stage, impressing the professional judges with their unique talents. The best thing about this show is that the judges don't get a chance to, well, judge the contestants based on their appearance. They're picking their teammates based solely on their sheer talent. Sometimes, there's pure shock when they turn around in their chairs and see what the person who was making all that noise looks like. When the judges turned around when they heard a very classical voice and saw a skinny, tattooed man? They didn't believe that he was the one really singing!

Activities from STRONG (described below) may be used for this purpose. 1. Multi-tiered School Support (MTSS) for Ukrainian Refugee Youth Trainers will provide training and consultation with school leaders on building multi-tiered school support for refugee youth. School leaders and administrators will discuss strategies at each tier of support, including universal (Tier 1) welcoming and well-being supports for all students, preventive (Tier 2) strategies to promote resilience and coping, and targeted interventions (Tier 3) to address distress and difficulties related to the newcomer experience. (See MTSS Figure below). Audience: School leaders/administrators Training time: 1-2 hours 2. Psychological First Aid for Schools (PFA-S) PFA-S is an evidence-informed intervention model to assist students, staff, and families in the immediate aftermath of an emergency and can be used by any trained staff member or community partner. Trauma-related distress can have a long-term impact. PFA-S uses brief interventions to produce positive results that last. PFA-S is designed to reduce the initial distress caused by emergencies, allows for the expression of difficult feelings, and assists students in developing coping strategies and constructive actions to deal with fear and anxiety. PFA-S assists students, staff, and families by ▪ Establishing a positive connection in a non-intrusive, compassionate manner; ▪ Enhancing immediate and ongoing safety and providing physical and emotional comfort; ▪ Calming and orienting those who are emotionally overwhelmed or distraught; ▪ Helping to identify their immediate needs and concerns and offering practical assistance and information to help address these needs and concerns; ▪ Empowering individuals to take an active role in their recovery, by acknowledging their coping efforts and strengths, and supporting adaptive coping; and, ▪ When appropriate, linking those in need to other relevant school or community resources such as school counseling services, peer support programs, afterschool activities, tutoring, primary care physicians, local recovery systems, mental health services, employee assistance programs, public-sector services, and other relief organizations. Audience: School personnel, students and families Training time: 2 hours 3. Health Support Team (HST) Training 2 options) Health Support Team is a disaster focused behavioral health training that is appropriate for anyone who would like to become better informed and trained on how to help their families, friends, neighbors and communities. The training covers the following: Common responses of children and teens to the impact of disasters Factors important for recovery from disasters Ways to increase resilience How the impact of trauma may show up in the classroom Understanding emergencies for mental health and substance abuse When to refer for professional help Tools to help manage the stress responses to disasters Self-care, and avoiding compassion fatigue Option 1: Training opportunity for anyone who is a parent, caregiver, or other adult helping a child or teen. This training is focused on the impact of disasters on children and teens and ways to assist them. This is a half-day training and will include access to the HST PARTICIPANT manual. Option 2: Training of Trainers. Training opportunity for educators, mental health providers, and school-based staff who are involved in helping a child or teen. This training is for those who have some basic understanding or training in behavioral health and is focused on how to train out this material to others. The training covers how to become a trainer for this curriculum and how to deliver the training materials and lessons. This is a half day training and includes access to the HST TRAINER Manual. 4. Supporting Transition Resilience of Newcomer Groups (STRONG) STRONG is an evidence-informed, school-based intervention for newcomer (refugee/immigrant) youth (K-12th grades) to support their transition to a new school and community. STRONG is intended for students experiencing psychological distress or difficulties functioning at home, school or in their community, often related to the adversities and trauma experienced during the transitions of migration and settlement. STRONG is delivered by school mental health clinicians and is comprised of 10 group sessions, one individual student session, and teacher and parent education sessions. Elementary (K-5th grade) and Secondary (6th-12th grade) versions are available.

Hyderabad Gives A New Meaning To Plastic Waste, To Use Paver Tiles Made From Recycled Plastic Nearly 30,000 polybags have been recycled into paver tiles by a Delhi-based company that will be used on roads of Hyderabad Written By: Gopi Karelia | Edited By: Sonia Bhaskar | Mumbai: Pedestrians in Hyderabad will now get a chance to walk on discarded plastic or rather tiles made from waste – like polybags, chips packets, plastic bottles, bottle caps and so on. The city, which is known for its unique ways to reuse waste like using using tyres as furniture in government offices, has cracked yet another innovative model to beat plastic pollution and prevent the plastic from reaching its landfill. Bamboo House India, a social enterprise in collaboration with the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) are using paver tiles on roads made from thousands of used polybags and other plastic items. Also Read: Hyderabad's 'Swachh Dooth' App: Segregate Waste And Stand A Chance To Win Rs 1 Lakh Talking to NDTV about this new initiative, Prashant Lingam, founder of Bamboo House India says, We are always in the process of experimenting with city's plastic waste. In the past we have refurbished plastic into several products and furniture. After using plastic paver tiles for a pavement in June, the GHMC gave us the contract of using such tiles on city roads. Paver tiles will be used in two of the city's prime locations to attract maximum attention. The tiles made from 30,000 plastic carry bags were procured last month from a Delhi-based company Shayna EcoUnified India Pvt. Ltd. The work on installing paver tiles has already started. With expert advise from Bamboo House India, the civic corporation is likely to complete the project in a few days. The tiles will be used to cover 1,500 square feet of area in Shilparamam and 3,500 sqaure feet in a pet park. Since Shilparamam is located right in the middle of the city and many software companies are in the same area, the paver tiled walkway made from plastic is likely to draw attention. The tiles are made from 30,000 plastic carry bags "A board will be placed in both the locations giving details of the project. As people will read it they will get aware about our plastic pollution and the urgent need to tackle it. Besides, the project will also set an example of how plastic waste, if used smartly, can turn into something useful," explains Prashant.

It will solve the problem of road digging. Usually, when a water connection pipe is to be repaired or a telephone wire is to be installed the civic corporation digs a portion of road and the road has to be made again. Both, time and huge amounts of money is spent in the exercise. In case of paver tiles, all one has to do it to lift a patch of the tile, complete the task and put it back. Secondly as opposed to regular cemented roads, the paver tiles cost much less. While an average road construction costs up to Rs 10 lakhs, the paver tiles purchased by the GHMC cost around Rs 3 lakhs. Besides, the tiles can take approximately 20 tonnes of weight so the possibility of cracks is eliminated. Depending on the success of the initiative, it will be extended to other public areas, especially the areas near bus shelters. If there is any project that encourages waste management and recycling we always take it up. More importantly, we try to undertake the project that can be showcased in the public domain to spread awareness. After studying the pros and cons of fitting plastic paver tiles the corporation gave a green signal. The roads will be studied for few months and if successful we will expand it in other areas as well, Hari Chandana Dasari, West Zone Municipal Commissioner tells NDTV. Toilets Made From Plastic Waste Apart from paver tiles project Prashant and his team are also working on another pilot project using plastic waste. the team has built toilets from plastic waste to provide sanitation and hygiene to children in a government school in the city. The toilet project happened when during one of their projects Prashant came across a recycler who makes boards from various scrap plastic materials. After researching for months, Prashant came to a conclusion that the boards can be used to make toilets. The toilet is stand-alone toilet meaning that it can be dismantled and moved whenever needed. It is also cost-effective as it costs around 40,000 as against one lakh. The height is eight feet and is a 4×4 model. The walls and flooring will be made from 400-500 kilos of plastic waste, says Prashant who has previously made a bus shelter, dining table and a water tank from discarded plastic. Like the paver tiles, the functioning of the toilet will also be tested for a few months before the project can be scaled up and more such toilets built.

Chris Bertish accepts Carrick Wealth Ambassadorship International Speaker, Author, Ocean Pioneer and the first person to single-handedly stand-up paddleboard (SUP) across the Atlantic Ocean – Chris Bertish – has accepted an offer to become an Ambassador for Carrick Wealth. Chris Bertish, the 42-year-old South African who made the 7500km crossing in 93 days, completely unsupported and unassisted, said he is proud to accept an offer to be an ambassador for Carrick due to Carrick's corporate ethic of independence, its positive attitude and vision for the future of South Africa. Carrick's ability to positively navigate through challenging times sat well with Chris's always positive, optimistic attitude to deal with and overcome any obstacle and challenge that comes his way, both in and out of the water. Furthermore, the partnership complements his adventurous spirit, passion for adventure, and his compassion for others. "I'm inspired by pushing my own limits, borders and boundaries," said Chris. "And through the adventures and world records I achieve, I hope I'm inspiring others to believe in themselves and what's possible." While he seeks to inspire and help others, Chris also acknowledges that he surrounds himself with people who inspire and help him. He is the first to point out that while he was the man who stood, paddled and endured overwhelming challenges for 93 days, without a great team behind him, it wouldn't have been possible. But Chris had a mission. He didn't just wake up one morning and say, "Right, I'm doing a Trans-Atlantic crossing," proceeding to order a designer-built SUP. He had a clear purpose and made a detailed plan to achieve it: the planning stage lasted five years, almost two thousand days. Carrick's Director of Development and Brand Kieron McRae, said this combination of a bold vision, a clear plan of action and total focus is what lies at the heart of Carrick's relationship with its clients. It was Chris's attitude, vision and integrity that made him an ideal Carrick Wealth Ambassador. "We consider our clients as part of the team. We establish what they have in mind and what they want to achieve," said Kieron. "Then we have a clear purpose that enables us to put in place the necessary plans to make that cross over into reality." Carrick Wealth CEO, Craig Featherby, said: "Chris is the embodiment of our corporate culture: independent and smart, focused but adaptable. We are proud to have Chris on board."

This is the second in a series of posts detailing how to setup basic responsive page structures using CSS. In this post, I will be covering how to handle two column layouts, first with the content on the left and the sidebar on the right and then the other way around. Here is a simplified example of the HTML output of the Solum theme. If you already read the post on single column layouts, you'll notice that the only addition is the #secondary div which holds the sidebar. The structure is explain in more detail in the single column layout post, so I'll just continue on to the CSS. We'll use the CSS reset from the single column post as well. We'll start with just one column for the mobile layout, with the content column coming first and the sidebar below it. Before we get to that, lets add some color so we can tell the different elements apart. Just like the single column layout, the #header is gray and the #main section is lighter gray. However, this time we've added a border around the #secondary div that hold the sidebar. Now let's move on to the actual structure. Starting at the beginning, the .wrap divs have a maximum width of 1140px and are centered on larger devices by the setting the margin to "0 auto". The padding is to keep the text from touching the borders of the browser on smaller screens. The code in the .wrap:after section is to make sure each .wrap div contains all floated elements inside it, rather than letting the floated elements overlap the edges. This is often called a "clearfix" hack. For a brief history of clearfix hacks over the years, check out Chris Coyier's article, Force Element To Self-Clear its Children. The #primary section sets a maximum width for the main content column. We don't ever want a content column getting really wide because wide columns are more difficult to read. Here we're limiting this column to 720px and centering it using "margin: 0 auto;" for when the screen is larger than 720px. The #secondary section limits the sidebar width to 400px. Sidebar content is rarely intended to be displayed in a wide area. Since the sidebar will not be wider than 400px in the full two column layout, we limit it here also. This way the sidebar will appear in a consistent manner regardless of the screen size. Just like the other elements, we center it using "margin: 0 auto" and then give it a padding of 1em so the content doesn't touch the border we gave it earlier. Here's what it should look like on mobile. First let's look at the @media screen line. This line determines when the enclosed CSS is applied. In this case, it is applied when the website is being displayed on a screen that has a width of 900px or more. The #primary section is floated to the left and given a width of 65%. Then 1em of padding is added on the right to prevent the enclosed content from touching the sidebar that will be positioned next to the right of the main content. The #secondary section is floated to the right and given a width of 35%, so that it sits next to the #primary section. Finally, if we wanted the sidebar to be on the left and the content on the right, we would only need to change the float directions of the #primary and #secondary columns in the media query section of the stylesheet and change "padding-right" to "padding-left" on the #primary div. That's all for today. The next post will cover three column layouts. If you have any questions or comments, feel free to let me know via the contact page. Thanks!

Canvas 9 Professional Edition By Greg Miller ACD Systems Canvas 9 Professional Edition ACD Systems' Canvas 9 Professional Edition is primarily for technical illustrators who need to design precision graphics. It can also pinch-hit as an image editor or an illustration program -- plus, it can serve as a page-layout, drawing, presentation, and Web-site program. Surprisingly, Canvas does all of these tasks well, so it's an attractive technical tool for illustrators who also like to exercise their creativity. Fingertip Control Developers of complex programs such as Canvas 9 strive to make efficient interfaces. ACD Systems has done this by enhancing existing features and adding new ones. A terrific new feature is the Properties bar, a horizontal display that shows relevant information about and options for an active tool or object. Select a new object or tool, and the bar changes to show the appropriate options. Properties -- such as scale, dimensions, object locations, level of opacity, fonts, and kerning -- are constantly displayed at the top of the main window, without intruding on the drawing. Available at a click from the Properties bar is the new dynamic help, which automatically shows detailed instructions for the current tool or object and doesn't take up a lot of screen real estate. Improved palette management gives you more control over palette and subpalette visibility as you move from one tool to the next. And you can minimize palettes and dialog boxes to unobtrusive, quickly accessible tabs on the edge of your drawing, so you can customize the interface according to your needs. Precise Differences A new double floating point, 64-bit coordinate system gives Canvas 9 the precision that technical illustrators need in order to make scaled and measured drawings -- precision usually found only in CAD (computer-aided design) programs. For instance, you can draw illustrations to scale; this is different from drawing them proportionally, as you might do in a typical illustration program. Canvas provides the same functionality and ease of use generally found in CAD programs. To set dimensions -- the notations on your drawing that indicate an object's real-world size -- just click from one point to another in your drawing; the program calculates and displays the dimensions. (You can customize the appearance of your dimensions.) You can place them one at a time or in strings that represent, say, different parts of a drawing. You can even adjust tolerances, so that the dimension values allow for and track minor variances. This is useful in engineering and product- design where drawings need to account for the accuracy of actual manufacturing processes. And Canvas now provides a virtually unlimited zoom, and document sizes as large as 2,000 miles squared (to scale). A feature from previous Canvas versions, Sprite Effects, remains one of the program's best. With Sprite Effects, you can apply one or more filters -- zoom, sharpen, color balance, and others -- to part of an illustration without changing the underlying graphic. Sprite Effects work on bitmapped images, vector-based drawings, and combinations of the two. Similar applications are just catching up to this functionality. [ Further reading: Learn more about macOS Catalina ] Technically Advanced In addition to the Professional version, Canvas 9 comes in two technical editions, each of which costs $200 more. The GIS (Geographic Information System) Mapping Edition includes GIS capabilities and mapping, such as the ability to import and work with industry-standard Shape Files and their associated data files and integrate them into technical presentations. You can also import GeoTIFF files and overlay and align aerial photography. Very few GIS applications' technical illustration capabilities can come close to those of Canvas 9 -- a unique and powerful application that lets you create GIS-accurate maps that are both beautiful and precise. The Scientific Imaging Edition supports 32-bit images. Combined with the new Image Data viewer, this provides direct access to an image's underlying numeric data, allowing graphic analysis of imagery and data from scientific sources. There's also support for industry-standard file formats and image filters, all of which makes Canvas useful for professionals in medicine and life sciences. A Stretched Canvas Canvas 9 does a fine job of providing capabilities usually found in four or five separate applications, but it's not the best option for any one task. People already committed to dedicated illustration or image-editing programs such as Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop will probably not want to switch, as those specialized applications typically outperform Canvas in their areas. Macworld's Buying Advice While Canvas is an excellent technical-illustration program, we wouldn't recommend it over a full-blown CAD program; it just doesn't have all the tools an architect or an engineer needs in order to create technical drawings. However, if you want technical- and graphic-design capabilities without extreme specialization in one package, Canvas is your best bet. If you already use Canvas, you'll enjoy the interface upgrades. If Illustrator and Photoshop lack the precision you want, and if a CAD program stifles your creative expression, then Canvas is the tool for you. Can do the work of several other applications combined Feature-packed Great new GIS and scientific-analysis abilities Good interface Doesn't beat dedicated applications in specialty areas 1 2 Page 1 Next

RuPaul's Drag Race: Shady Politics April 19, 2016 5:11 AM - Season 8, Episode 7 - Subscribe Our six remaining queens get dirty in a political attack ad challenge. Vivica A. Fox is a guest judge. Two queens bring their Effie game with "And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going"--and then there were five. posted by duffell (11 comments total) I went into this episode hoping for a Derrick Barry loss, but wound up rooting for her by the end (who would've thought?). Bob, of course, once again showed herself to be the star of this season. That ad was fucking perfect. I was thoroughly puzzled by Thorgy's ad. I guess she was trying to serve up "New England Matriarch Realness" or something, but she sounded like Edward G. Robinson. I fully expected her to end the ad with "YEAH, SEE!" As soon as I saw what song Chi Chi and Thorgy would be doing for the lip-sync, I knew Thorgy would be going home. Chi Chi poured all of her emotion into that song, and Thorgy gave a characteristically hammy performance that fell completely flat. Her shtick would have been great for "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun," but she's no Effie. Chi Chi served her ass on a platter. And did you see those camera cuts to Ru? I thought she was going to start weeping. posted by duffell at 5:20 AM on April 19, 2016 [5 favorites] Though I'm in agreement that Chi Chi beat Thorgy in the lip sync, I'm really sad at what the final is going to look like, because all the interesting queens are gone, except Bob. Kim Chi has astounding looks, and the show desperately wants us to think she's got hidden wells of performance talent that spring up from time to time (mostly in the talking head segments), but she's entirely wooden to me. Naomi is gorgeous, and for a looks queen, that's all you need. She just is dull in most other ways. Chi Chi brings all the fun talking heads, and can lip sync better than anyone else in the show, but her excuses are more often than Robbie Turner, and we seem to be relying on the "girl from a small town makes it big" storyline, which just seems a bit forced. Derrick is...well, Derrick. I mean, he did well enough this week, but you can't convince me that wasn't 100% Bob's (and the producers') doing. It gave me such "Bianca helps out Trinity, and Trinity SLAYS!" that I thought I was watching a repeat. I think Derrick is just Too Famous to Fail. So that leaves us with Bianca Del Rio 2.0, the Bob Show Starring Bob. Unless they're planning on pulling some sort of upset that will stun the fans, I think Bob is going to walk away with the crown. Which is great! He's amazing and hilarious and will be astounding on the road and is 100% suited to the title, but it's just looking like it's going to be a boring ascent from here on up. posted by xingcat at 8:06 AM on April 19, 2016 [3 favorites] Thorgy has been working my LAST nerve, she thinks a lot of herself, and hasn't really showed us anything. The minute she started writing an novel for her ad, I knew she was through. I love Bob, and I won't be sorry when she wins. Chi-Chi is a lot like Jiggly Caliente, she's the Party City queen who has a spark within her. Derrick bores me and I found his whole, 'Bob in a Hoodie..." thing really offensive. Trayvon was murdered by a racist, I tried really, really hard to find the funny in that and just couldn't. Naomi, as much as I love her for being beautiful...there's no there there. Kim Chi...you love her, but dayum, there's no talent there! posted by Ruthless Bunny at 8:45 AM on April 19, 2016 [1 favorite] I was super happy with this ep and I actually really like the remaining queens! Bob of course is Bob. Kim Chi definitely still has training wheels on as far as performance goes, but her make-up is amazing; Naomi has great "body" looks and knows her fashion, and is lovable and funny. Derrick is a doof, but can be a lovable robot when she relaxes a little (and gets away from the whole racist "suburban white girl making jokes about the ghetto" schtick). And Chi Chi is a fucking lip sync assassin at this point. (I still think we could be on track for a Bob/Kim Chi/Chi Chi top 3, maybe with Chi Chi sending Derrick home, but I'm not sure about that last slot any more given Derrick's win tonight.) This episode I felt a lot of alternating empathy for and frustration with Thorgy, as a fellow scatterbrained ADHD neurotic chronic ruminator. I wasn't as in love with her as it seemed like a lot of the fanbase was (Reddit is losing its collective shit right now for instance), but she is def talented and gave us some great TV. Just a simple scarf! And I love that they showed a little of Bob's protest side. Check out this performance clip. I can't remember a previous front-runner who was this explicitly political and I fucking love it, BTDQ for America. posted by en forme de poire at 11:16 AM on April 19, 2016 [1 favorite] If we ever get a Bob the Talk Show Host I world def. watch it and i want Thorgy to be in it as a Statdler & Waldorf character doing really grumpy commentary. I would like that. Also, when Ru said "Good luck Femocrats" I was screaming "But what id you identify as a Recuntlican!" posted by uandt at 12:23 PM on April 19, 2016 [3 favorites] This season has been good, if a little disjointed so far - those disappointing lipsyncs, Naysha back for some reason - until tonight! What an episode, even the nonsensical mini-challenge at least had hot men to look at. The lipsync was one for the ages, and while this is indeed The Bob Show starring Bob The Drag Queen and I don't really see any of the girls upsetting his eventual crowning, it seems like the next few episodes should be pretty interesting. posted by the uncomplicated soups of my childhood at 1:56 PM on April 19, 2016 Disappointing — I really like Thorgy but I agree she was getting a real crummy edit these last few weeks. I mean, she said some testy stuff, but I also think they probably have that footage from EVERY queen (you know they ask them each week "Who do you think should go home this week?"). Also it's clear from more recent stuff that she and Bob really do get along, and their drama was mostly played up in editing. That being said, that song was designed for Chi Chi to slay and she delivered. She connected with the emotion of the song, which Thorgy didn't dig as deep to do. It's clear to me now that Derrick is going to play the Phi Phi role in the top 3 (i.e., sticking around so we'll keep watching, just to make sure she doesn't win), clearing the way for a Bob/Chi Chi/Naomi/Kim Chi win. I honestly wonder if it could be Naomi's win at this point, her improvement has been so marked. I love Bob and would be thrilled with a Bob win, but I also think Bob will have no trouble getting superstar gigs even without the crown. I'm back on board with team Chi Chi, but she still needs to step it up if she wants that crown. Kim is just a sweetheart with amazing artistry and I'm glad she's sort of coasting through to more episodes (she IS trying her hardest!). posted by Zephyrial at 10:22 AM on April 20, 2016 I feel like an outsider because I never quite got Thorgy's charm even before the last few weeks (where it did seem like he was getting a harsh edit) so I can't say I'm sad to see him go. And if we're willing to accept that you're only as good as your last contest/runway, it was definitely the right choice, as even the next weakest this week (Chi Chi) was much better, especially in the lip sync. On that, I feel like "And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going", like "I Will Survive" earlier this season is one of those Drag 101 things where if you can't pull off an acceptable version, you should immediately go home. An acceptable version does not include a last minute cartwheel. Speaking of the dearly departed, if you haven't seen Bob doing his Thorgy impression at Roscoe's here in Chicago last week, you should. posted by MCMikeNamara at 11:53 AM on April 20, 2016 [3 favorites] even the nonsensical mini-challenge at least had hot men to look at I was actually agog at that - there's been so much fun innuendo and double-entendre in this show over the years, but to literally take the Pit Crew and say "these guys this guy is a top and these guys are all bottoms"... it was too much. I kind of fell out of love with the show a bit. posted by psoas at 1:39 PM on April 20, 2016 [1 favorite] Yeah, it was kind of missing the show's usual wink. I feel like it could also have worked to be even more blatant and self-aware about it, e.g.: "Now we will watch the Pit Crew be adorable for five minutes, after which we will arbitrarily pick a mini-challenge winner"; dissolve fade to montage of the Pit Crew playing Twister, doing feats of strength, forming a hamster-pile; congratulations Derrick! posted by en forme de poire at 5:23 PM on April 20, 2016 [1 favorite] On reflection, Thorgy seems so easily threatened by the other very skilled queens around her, I wonder if she intentionally refused to get footage of Chi Chi getting drunk for her attack ad because she didn't want to give her any opportunity to shine. If so, that's some serious self-sabotage. posted by duffell at 6:10 PM on April 25, 2016 [2 favorites] « Older Last Week Tonight with John Ol... | Supergirl: Better Angels...

Trixie always screams the loudest so I guess we will be seeing you at HOR tonight Kat! But it is THE PHOENIX, tomorrow night! Hm...I have to work at 8 am tomorrow morning ... so I doubt that I'll be doing anything tonight. However the Phoenix sounds like a fun party place tomorrow night, however I'll be on my crutches more than likely but I want to still come out. HaHa, Lance! You messed up my Gnome's travel schedule! It was a highly scientific...science...which is now ruined! He has caught on and is now making much more demands! So...what did you do to my DOG?! I LOVE Sisterhood!! Watching part one, or two?? come one, come all tonight to HOR for Trixie Deeee light! That's where we'll be! TD was absofvckinglutely wonderful.....too bad the night was....well, hell...never mind. People need to rid themselves of drama and bullsh1t, seriously. Kills the night for others, Pretty soon, those will not be welcome to any POF events...and if you have any question or doubt...well then you need a reality check. Good night. Wow...I cannot believe I typed that so well....was actually dreading seeing a million typos from drunk posting!! Denise...you and the rest of the girls make it home, safe? Laura? Not sure what happened...we WERE going to breakfast, but then there was confusion cause someone had told Nita Eat Right, and said TJ's....lol....so we just skipped it all together. My honey called once more at 1:30 this morning, I missed the call, Theresa says prob checking up on me since I went out with the girls LOL ~ and he told me he wanted to save his phone battery for his alarm and called 4x yesterday, too funny! Gots to go, gots to go, Kat, I signed up for Phoenix tonight so see you later! Nope didn't go to Denny's or anywhere's else but home. Luckily my son had made some cookies so I had those for my HOB! I myself had a great time! Drama is just that. We're all adults and don't need to be telling others what or what not to do. It was nice that the place wasn't very crowded and we had room to dance on the dance floor. Trixie rocked the house as usual! See you tonight, Denise! And guess what...I am at exactly ONE WEEK of quitting smoking, this very moment!! ^^^You, my dear....are soooo not funny!!! surely you have some friends in your area Amber, that could give you a lift and enjoy the night out on the town at the same time? Some are under 21 and the others already had plans .... I'll see. As far as im concerned the forums is not the place to air dirty laundry!! if someone has a problem with another fishie, it should be discussed in private. I for one aint skeerd to talk in private or face to face for that matter. So bring it on!! This is a fricking dating sight and thats just what it is, not everyones gonna find that match in the first or second or whatever number person that they have dated. You may have dated one or two people from the sight that run in the same circle. Not that u planned it that way but it just may happen. That doesnt mean that because you might show up at a POF function that an ex-lover is at that you have to leave or run. If it didnt work out, sheesh, move on and let it go. Its not flaunting, its moving on. I agree with George and Bay. Posted something I did not need to on a forum. Came out (at least to me) as me being a drama queen. It also was not to bad mouth any person. Which that person knows. So, I put my foot in mouth and have shut up about what was posted. But, I also agree with Shelia (prev36) about hearing other's opinions. I have seen the drama that goes at some of these parties. So an ex comes in. If both are decent grown up adults, they will be cordial at the very least. This also goes for girl friends and guy friends. I know of some that have had a falling out but at least the girls were cordial to each other. Looking forward to seeing all of you at the 11/22 pof party! Will not be any drama from me. Been there done that at some point(s) in my life. Gonna have fun and learn the banana dance (wtf is a banana dance )!!! Heck Bay you lurk in the shadows so's you can stay out of anything!

El contingut generat per usuaris (de l'anglès, user-generated content; UGC) engloba una àmplia gamma de continguts en els mitjans de comunicació disponibles que han estat creats pels diferents usuaris. Les persones que els realitzen s'anomenen creadors de contingut i, quan han assolit un nivell molt notable de penetració social, reben el nom d'influenciadors. Aquest concepte va entrar en ús durant l'any 2005, gràcies a les facilitats i les opcions que la web 2.0 permeten en les plataformes web i que es basen en la llibertat i diversitat d'informació. Estem parlant doncs de totes les tecnologies de mitjans digitals, com ara bases de dades de preguntes i respostes, vídeo digital, blogs, fòrums, podcasts, xarxes socials, la fotografia mòbil i els wikis. És a dir, tots aquells espais web on el contingut és publicat, llegit, editat, respost, etc., per usuaris i no per propietaris. En algunes pàgines web, el contingut generat per l'usuari és només en una part del tot. Per exemple en pàgines d'empreses, pàgines de publicitat, en que el contingut és publicat pels creadors però hi ha fòrums i apartat de crítiques on s'acumulen les publicacions dels usuaris regulars de la web. Sovint el "UGC" està parcialment controlat pels administradors dels espais web per evitar continguts ofensius, per controlar que es respectin els drets d'autor i per mantenir una base de dades amb contingut rellevant. Malgrat això, la quantitat de contingut que es genera és moltes vegades incontrolable i suposa molta feina revisar-los tots, i sovint es creen conflictes. Els espais web d'aquest tipus de contingut són molt populars actualment, els usuaris comparteixen opinions, experiències i informacions als uns amb els altres, de manera que s'han convertit en els espais de més ús i més visites. Exemples bàsics en són l'Enciclopèdia lliure Viquipèdia o el canal Youtube de vídeos. Principals serveis del UGC Tenint en compte la quantitat d'informació i creacions en megabytes que formen l'UGC és molt difícil controlar que es respectin tots els drets. Per això existeixen "Serveis UGC". Les institucions i serveis i els propietaris conpyright han col·laborat per establir uns principis que fomentin un entorn en línia que promou les promeses i beneficis dels serveis de UGC i alhora protegeix els drets dels propietaris del copyright. No són lleis, són principis que contribueixen a una més robusta i rica en contingut experiència en línia per a tots. Hem de ser conscients que no existeix un sistema per dissuadir la infracció perfecte i total. Però, donat el desenvolupament de la identificació de nous continguts i tecnologies de filtratge, estem units en la creença que els principis que figuren a continuació són fonamentals en la creació UGC. Un dels principals serveis d'algunes plataformes és Creative Commons.

Whidbey Community Foundation Receives $10,000 for census count Whidbey Community Foundation has received $10,000 in funding from the Washington Census Equity Fund, to support 2020 Census outreach, education and resources to ensure a complete and accurate census count on Whidbey Island. WCF will provide targeted training opportunities for local nonprofit organizations, informational handouts and a public outreach campaign, according to a press release. Training for nonprofits will include workshops for staff, board members and volunteers that work with hard-to-count individuals from all backgrounds on Whidbey Island. The foundation was formed in 2016 to improve the quality of life on Whidbey Island by providing support for the nonprofit sector, assisting donors to build and preserve enduring assets for charitable purposes, and meeting community needs through financial awards. In 2018, WCF provided training for more than 300 nonprofit leaders, through workshops held in Langley, Freeland, Coupeville and Oak Harbor. The Washington Census Equity Fund, a statewide pooled fund managed by Philanthropy Northwest, awarded $800,000 in funding to 28 organizations and tribes supporting communities across Washington. "We know that an overwhelming number of Washington organizations and tribes are ready to engage their communities on the 2020 Census with early funding to catalyze census planning and mobilization in hard-to-count communities," Kiran Ahuja, CEO of Philanthropy Northwest, said in a press release. Each person counted leads to significant resources to support critical programs and services including transportation, health care, education and housing. Risks to the success of the 2020 census include a new online format, a lack of testing and a shortage of federal funding for outreach. The new online innovations increase the potential to omit residents where housing has grown or changed, to overlook those with less computer literacy or broadband access, and to undercount hard-to-count populations. WCF will utilize the new grant to provide outreach and education with the goal that everyone is counted, with a focus on communities that are historically undercounted.

Music is a form of artwork which performs an vital part of our on a regular basis life. There's a host of music classifications for non-Western music, lots of which are caught up within the argument over the definition of music Among the many largest of those is the division between classical music (or "artwork" music), and popular music (or business music – including non-Western styles of rock, country , and pop music-associated kinds). Join musicians from greater than 70 nations for the summer time of a lifetime.

In the 19th century, artwork music for solo performers may give a common instruction equivalent to to perform the music expressively, without describing in detail how the performer ought to do this. There were instances when it had me in tears at the transferring examples of how music touched – and lots of occasions saved – lives. Improvisation is a major part of some forms of music, akin to blues , jazz , and jazz fusion , during which instrumental performers improvise solos, melody traces and accompaniment components. Music has been the soundtrack to humanity undoubtedly since time began. Assist us promote the power of music to alter individuals's lives for the better. This way has three elements. Romantic music expanded beyond the inflexible styles and types of the Classical era into extra passionate, dramatic expressive pieces and songs. My point here is to not make a case for any specific genre of music but reasonably to help us perceive that whether or not we know it or not the explanation music is a lot apart of us no matter our age, race ,cultural background, or most popular musical genre and the rationale it impacts us the best way it does is because in essence music is religious.

Sportingly Better takes a look at the best value soccer betting tips today, as Germany take on Portugal in Group G. World Cup Betting Tips Germany (1.95) v Portugal (4.20); Draw (3.60) Three-time World Cup winners Germany remain the odds-on favourites in Salvador on Monday, despite coming up against a Portugal side containing Cristiano Ronaldo. Die Mannschaft have concerns over Bastian Schweinsteiger, so long-term absentee Sami Khedira may be risked in the centre of midfield, alongside converted defender Philipp Lahm. Germany have had to deal with a number of injuries in the run-up to the World Cup, with Joachim Low expected to field four central defenders across the backline. Germany have reached the semi-final stage or beyond in each of the last three World Cups, but die Adler's attacking fluid displays during qualification could lead to an open and exciting match today. Opponents Portugal should have world-beater Cristiano Ronaldo fit for the match in Salvador, who almost single-handedly knocked out Sweden in the World Cup play-offs. Paulo Bento's side do boast creative talent Joao Moutinho in the centre of midfield, whilst Real Madrid defender Pepe leads a commanding presence at the back. Portugal have won just three of their last 17 games against Germany and Joachim Low's high-tempo side should have the upper hand in the Group G opener tonight.

Artist Review: Gkleft Ryda – "Welcome To My World" EP Posted in Hip Hop, Indie, Music Review, Rap by Artist Reach, LLC If there's one rapper that is quick with his words and quick on his feet, it's definitely Gkleft Ryda with his fresh new EP Welcome To My World. This is a fun indie record with a signature sound and style all in its own caliber. That's for sure. From authentic rhyming schemes and dynamic lyrical techniques, we definitely delve into Gkleft Ryda's world with four banging tracks this EP offers up. "Clear My Mind" is a perfect opener. It's a great introductory track and blasts you right into the overall feel and aura that GR delivers throughout the record. His vocal charisma shines bright with multifaceted multilayered vocals that are authentic and upbeat. The production value contains a happy medium and doesn't overdose the listener on any theatrical elements. This record is definitely as real as it gets between the bouncy beats and the lyrical spits that share perfect parallels. Then we have two more tracks that follow suit with a similar angle with "Pajamas" and "Way It Is". Songs that really solidify GR's stylization and really show his integration as his lyrical flow continues to master itself through each verse and well-placed hook. The party track is definitely "Baby Go Ham" though. This one drives with a narrative that shows us more of GR's personality and artistic merit. This is probably one of the most catchy on the record, and will stick like glue far after it's over. While every track on this record glorifies in its own way, you definitely have to crown this track as one of the prominent highlights. It's literally a sonic boom that doesn't disappoint. And that goes for the whole record; it doesn't disappoint. At all. I was a little scared that the title of Welcome To My World might be underwhelming in its content. But don't even begin to think it. This EP is an astonishing delivery of Gkleft Ryda's world. And you'll feel more than welcome when you take a listen yourself.

Q: Fix function in R for Ubuntu not working properly I have been using R in the terminal window for Ubuntu. Recently I discovered the fix function in R, which I could use to edit my function. However, whenever I use the fix function, it opens up an editor (VIM) and I can use that to write my function. Then I type "wq" to save the work, however when I type the name of the function, it shows that there weren't any edits which were made to the function. Why does this happen? A: In order to use the editing functionality, make sure you have either * *the default editor installed (do eg grep EDITOR /etc/R/Renviron) *or set the EDITOR environment variable to a different editor you prefer, *or at runtime set options("editor"=....) to what you need. Now, for the fix() function in particular, note this hint in its manual page: 'fix' invokes 'edit' on 'x' and then assigns the new (edited) version of 'x' in the user's workspace. So if the change "vanishes", maybe you were editing an object which is not yours. Start with something simple, edit it and see if that persists. Along the lines of R> hw <- function() cat("Hello, world\n") R> fix(hw) ## editing, adding 'new' R> hw() Hello, new world R>

The LG V30 is just around the corner as it is launching this month on 31st. Now, we already have the hands-on images, the official press render and some major specifications of the smartphone. If you recall, with the LG G6, the company introduced some beautiful wallpapers and instead of designing them via designers, they were made by hands. These wallpapers were the combination of paper, acrylic, paint and two months of patience. Now, with the V30 coming in a couple of weeks, LG has once again planned to create all the LG V30 wallpapers manually. So, as the video above shows, the LG V30 Wallpapers are made by using the glass and different colored lights. The main wallpapers include the letter V and different colors like blue, violet etc. What do you think about this way of making official stock wallpapers of a device? Do let us know via the comments section.

Though it likely won't come as a surprise, water bills have been increasing over the last year. Water and sewage bills have risen by an average of 2% from the previous year, costing households around £395. The price increases are still reflective of the five year plans that water and sewage companies created after speaking with customers and industry regulator Ofwat. However, the plans also forecast that companies will deliver a 5% drop in prices by 2020. Investment programmes make sure that water companies are giving back and supporting the community by creating jobs and contributing to growth. The UK water industry already contributes around £15bn a year to the economy. Water and sewage companies are also planning to invest £44bn in better services and environmental improvements over the next few years. Tackling leakage and efficiency by saving 370 million litres a day. Decreasing the amount of properties flooded with wastewater by 33%. A reduction of 32% in time interruptions that affect the supply of water. Water deregulation is set to come into place this April in England. This will mean that households will be able to choose their water provider. Currently, only places that use more than 5 megalitres a year can do this i.e. businesses and organisations. With water deregulation, retail competition will soon become a big part of the way water companies do business. Companies are going to be more focused on providing value for money and a good service in order to retain customers. Water companies are expected to increase their support for customers to ensure they get the help they need with their bills. An expected 1.8 million people will have been assisted by companies by 2020. Water companies already have tariffs in place to help customers with bills for low-income households. £40 million a year is used to help customers who struggle to pay or are in debt. Some companies also work with financial advisors to help customers. The government has proposed changes to the Digital Economy Bill that will allow water companies to help their customers by using data from other government departments, like the Department of Work and Pensions. Water UK Chief Executive, Michael Roberts said: "Water companies are fully committed to delivering great customer service and keeping household bills as low as possible. This year, details on bills in England and Wales are being published alongside information on how water companies are performing. For more information you can take a look at average bills for each company on the Discover Water website.

For Curtis Blaydes, style points matter in slow-moving UFC heavyweight division November 25, 2020 [email protected]_84 Blaydes, Curtis, division, heavyweight, matter, points, slowmoving, style, UFC Curtis Blaydes has won four fights in a row, two of them by knockout and the other two by thoroughly dominant beatdown. During an MMA career that spans 17 pro bouts over 6½ years, he has been bettered by only one opponent. Blaydes is No. 3 among heavyweights in the ESPN rankings. And yet when he steps into the Octagon on Saturday to face fifth-ranked Derrick Lewis, a victory would propel Blaydes … not an inch closer to a championship fight. The roadblock standing between Blaydes and UFC heavyweight champ Stipe Miocic is No. 2-ranked Francis Ngannou, and that is a barricade Blaydes has been unable to swerve around despite multiple attempts. They have fought twice, and Ngannou has knocked out Blaydes both times. Their most recent meeting, in November 2018, lasted all of 45 seconds. Two top heavyweights will take center stage in Saturday's UFC Fight Night main event, with Curtis Blaydes facing Derrick Lewis. Blaydes, who is rated third in ESPN's heavyweight rankings, has won four straight, while the fifth-ranked Lewis has won three in a row.

UFC president Dana White made that clear on SportsCenter just days after Miocic's title defense in August, and last month White told TMZ that Miocic vs. Ngannou is being targeted for March. There should be no argument with that booking. Ngannou is on a roll that sends chills down the spines of heavyweights the world over. His second conquest of Blaydes started a run of four straight victories — all knockouts, all in the first round, all but one in the first minute. His most recent KO, over previously unbeaten Jairzinho Rozenstruik in May, took just 20 seconds. Yeah, Blaydes isn't leapfrogging Ngannou no matter what he does against Lewis this weekend. Blaydes could even end up being the one leapfrogged. That's because there's new blood at heavyweight. Former light heavyweight champ Jon Jones is preparing to go through with his plan to move up a weight class. Last week he posted on social media photos of himself in the weight room with the caption "240 feels great." It looks great on him, too, every added pound, judging by the bulked-up physique in the pictures. 240 feels great pic.twitter.com/Pi9WpzSAqR — BONY (@JonnyBones) November 19, 2020 When Jones is ready to enter the Octagon with the big boys, he is not going to be asked to work his way up the heavyweight hierarchy. "Bones" is the sport's indisputable pound-for-pound king now that Khabib Nurmagomedov is retiring. He warrants a big fight right off the bat. He might very well step directly into a title challenge. How can Blaydes avoid having Jones cut the queue ahead of him? He definitely ought not rely on having Dana White in his corner. In Blaydes' most recent fight, a unanimous-decision win over Alexander Volkov in June, he had 14 takedowns and maintained top control for just under 20 of the bout's 25 minutes. He landed twice as many significant strikes as Volkov, a top-10 heavyweight and former Bellator champ, and connected at an astounding clip of just under 70% accuracy. But Blaydes tired in the later rounds, and that became the focus of the UFC president's postfight comments. "I don't think you talk the s— that he did this week and come in and perform like that," White said that night. "Talking about ragdolling people and he's not getting paid and yada yada he should be getting the title shot. He gassed out at the end of the third round, made it to the fifth and won the fight." White scoffed at a reporter's suggestion that Blaydes might just wait in line for his title shot. "I wouldn't wait around if I was him. I'd stay active," White said. "When you talk the s– that he talked and perform like he did tonight, you look stupid." It's likely that White's problems with Blaydes weren't confined to his fighting style. Notice the four words in the middle of his critique: "he's not getting paid." Blaydes has been outspoken about fighter pay and has talked about a union. By taking a stance unpopular with the UFC brass, Blaydes has put a whole new layer of pressure on himself. Going forward, anything but a brutal finish or all-out beatdown runs the risk of being framed by White as boring or in some way lacking. Blaydes has to perform and, yes, has to ramp up the entertainment. And that's doable. He is not the type to turn in a five-second flying-knee KO, a la Jorge Masvidal, but he does have it in him to ragdoll for 25 fun minutes. The impression Blaydes leaves with fans — and matchmakers — with his performance on Saturday night will go a long way toward determining whether upward mobility is in his near future. Despite his standing at No. 3, with Nos. 1 and 2 expected to meet in just a few months, it is highly unlikely that Blaydes' next fight would be for the championship. But if he handles Lewis the way he's handled (almost) all who have come before, Blaydes can at least make it less palatable to have Jones jump the queue. Perhaps Blaydes would be called upon to welcome Jones to the heavyweight division. Blaydes on whether he wants to face Jon Jones: "We're talking about money. I'm not going to fight Jon Jones for $200,000. That's ridiculous. I think a lot of people forget that we get paid what we get paid regardless of who the opponent is… I can fight a bum to make $200,000" pic.twitter.com/LoTP3vlKjC — Aaron Bronsteter (@aaronbronsteter) November 24, 2020 With no championship on the line, that matchup might not seem like a flashy enough booking for the Jones debut. But just months ago "Bones" was campaigning for a fight against Ngannou, which would have been a non-title bout. And timing could play in Blaydes' favor as well. Jones hasn't competed in nine months, and by the time Miocic and Ngannou have settled their business, and the winner is ready for a new challenge, it could be next summer or even beyond. Miocic has been fighting once a year lately, so if he wins, would Jones want to wait nearly two years in between fights? A Jones fight against Blaydes — or against Lewis, if he wins on Saturday — would keep the new heavyweight active and enliven the division's hierarchy. If UFC matchmakers feel the need to add some bling, they could even toss an interim title belt into the cage. Blaydes cannot control UFC matchmaking. If the fight promotion is determined to have Jones fight for the title in his heavyweight debut, that is the fight that will be made no matter what Blaydes does on Saturday. But Blaydes nonetheless has an opportunity in his fight with Lewis, who has more knockouts than any heavyweight in UFC history, to put on the kind of stirring performance that makes fans care about him and want to see him in the biggest fights. For a fighter who so relentlessly thrives on control, that appears to be all he can hope to have within his grasp. ← Black Friday beauty deals 2020: Huda Beauty, Glossier, Boots and more Opinion | Will White Women in Georgia Put Family or Culture War First? → Comments: How to Spot Knock Off Designer Clothing and Fashion Accessories Online Jewelry Shopping – 5 Tips to Ease Up Unique Presents for Kids Ultra Violet Rays – Business Women's Guide to Fashion This Woman Is An Inspiration accesories Accessories Amazon basketball beauty Big Black Business Christmas clothing college computer Coupon COVID19 Cyber deals fashion Friday gift guide Holiday home ideas Jewelry line Market Model Monday odds Online pandemic picks predictions proven Sales Season shopping State style Tesla wedding Week women Womens year Copyright © 2021 fashion.

Talented cast sparkles in Cape Cod Theatre Company production By Ellen C. [email protected] Apr 8, 2016 at 11:44 AM Apr 8, 2016 at 11:44 AM 'Christopher Columbus' (to borrow the favorite oath of one of its characters), do we have talented theater people on Cape Cod, and "Little Women," playing all this month at the Cape Cod Theatre Company, home of the Harwich Junior Theatre, proves my point. It's not just good, it's Broadway good. A musical with a cast of just ten actors accompanied by four musicians, this adaptation of the novel by Louisa May Alcott actually did play on Broadway, with book by Allan Knee, music by Jason Howland, and lyrics by Mindi Dickstein. Here, the production is directed and choreographed with professional polish by Terry Norgeot, with topflight support from musical director Cristina Dinella, costume designer Robin McLaughlin, set designer James F. Byrne, and lighting and sound designers David Wilson and J Hagenbuckle. The cast just sparkles. Dressed in charming period costumes appropriate to the Civil War days in which the story is set, Caitlin Mills (Jo); Lindsey Erin Agnes (Amy); Katie Lynch Koglin (Meg); and Hope O'Conor (Beth) bring to vivid life the personalities of the "little women," the four young March sisters, as they and their mother (played by Sonia Schonning) experience the ups and downs of life while missing their father, who's away at war. The men who in various ways come into the sisters' lives are played by Richard Jay Sullivan, Anthony Logan Cole, Kevin Kenneally and Jeff Dexter. Sheila Furtado meets the challenge of a dual role as Aunt March and Mrs. Kirk. What is notable is that each one of these players not only conveys the story's tenderness and humor, but that each, without exception, also has a lovely singing voice and the ability to tackle the score's often difficult music. Several of them ace long soliloquies, and they even nail the broad farce of a play-within-a-play. Diction and the delivery of lines is letter-perfect. I have never read the novel "Little Women," so I cannot evaluate how closely the play follows it. And I am an only child, so neither can I gauge how closely the sisters' relations compare to reality. So I will just tell you about the moment in the play that I'll remember. Young Beth and a neighbor, Mr. Laurence, sit down at a piano and sing a charming little ditty, "Off to Massachusetts." The simple pleasure of one adult and one child making music together brings a welcome still point in the play, which most of the time swirls with the big stuff like birth and death, conflicting loyalties, aspirations and ambitions and the uncountable forms of human love. One caveat about this lovely show is that it feels long at 2 ½ hours, and some parts of the second act drag a bit. No doubt the three preschoolers who sat right in front of me felt the same way – bless 'em, they kept admirably quiet but by the end of the first act, let alone the second, there was considerable bobbing up and down. Because of its length, I wouldn't recommend "Little Women" for their age group. It is the show to see this month if you have guests from off-Cape, or maybe even local friends who need an introduction to the very, very high quality of theater that we are blessed with on this peninsula.

OUCH! Biden Says Hillary Never Figured Out THE MOST IMPORTANT THING About Running For President How bad are things for Hillary Clinton? Even Vice President Joe Biden is kicking her while she's down. According to Biden, Hillary never figured out the most important thing about running for President: Why she was running. From CNN: Biden: Clinton never figured out why she was running Hillary Clinton felt compelled to run for president despite lacking a clear campaign vision, Vice President Joe Biden argued in an interview published Thursday. "I don't think she ever really figured it out," Biden told the Los Angeles Times' Mike Memoli. "And by the way, I think it was really hard for her to decide to run." Biden said Clinton likely felt obliged to run for president and that the historic nature of her bid weighed on her decision-making. "She thought she had no choice but to run. That, as the first woman who had an opportunity to win the presidency, I think it was a real burden on her," Biden said. Oh, Joe. Isn't it obvious? Hillary ran to keep the gravy train rolling. She ran so she could pay back Clinton Foundation donors. She ran because she wanted to get a place in history. In other words, Hillary ran for Hillary. That's why she ran. It was all about Hillary. And Joe? Either he doesn't get it or he's trying to hide the real reason Hillary ran for President. Share so everyone sees the truth of "why" Hillary ran!!

Blair, Keiley Advance, Horner Loses in First Round of Match Play at USGA Amateur Public Links Zac Blair won the first hole of his first round match with a birdie and never trailed in posting a 5 and 3 victory over Byron Meth of San Diego, California in the USGA Amateur Public Links Championship at Soldier Hollow. Blair lost in the first round of this tournament the past two years and so this first round win is a big relief for him. His BYU teammate, Justin Keiley, also advanced to the second round, but it took him an extra hole to oust Ryan Werre. Dan Horner, the other Utahn to advance into match play, lost his first round match to Jacob Knapp, 3 and 2. The big upset of the day came in the first match of the day when 64th seed Alex Edfort upset medalist James Erkenbeck. Edfort squared the match on the 18th hole and then won it on the 21st hole. Blair will now face Paul McConnell of Texas in the second round. That match will tee off Thursday at 7:10 a.m. The winner will advance to the final 16 in a match that will begin at 12:30. Keiley will face Brad Schneider of Florida in a morning match that begins at 9:10 a.m. If he wins that match he will play in the round of 16 in a 1:30 match. Weather conditions have been wonderful at Soldier Hollow all three days of the tournament, but there have been very few spectators during the first three days of the tournament. Complete results can be viewed at the usga.org web page. Also, the Tribune and the News are offering good coverage at sltrib.com and desnews.com

I need to integrate OCR engine in Xamarin Android, which allows extract text from driving licences via a phone camera. Abbyy Real-time Recognition SDK below seems the best option. However, I cannot see Xamarin sdk. Unfortunately, we do not have any Xamarin samples for Real-Time Recognition SDK (only for ABBYY Cloud OCR SDK and for old Xamarin versions), but it is technically possible to use RTR in projects developed in Xamarin. Xamarin sample for ABBYY Cloud OCR SDK does not support the latest version of Xamarin and it was not thoroughly tested, that's why we provide it only on demand. Please let us know if you would like to try ABBYY Cloud OCR SDK instead of Real-Time Recognition SDK. I* need it to run offline, does ABBYY Cloud OCR SDK require internet connection? As you correctly pointed out ABBYY Cloud OCR SDK requires Internet connection for work therefore the ability to work offline is not available. I am looking for RTR SDK integration into Xamarin, could you please let me know the SDK support, Samples and also provide the details and documentation.

Ian McKay You have 2 more free articles remaining The 14pp manuscript is Mahler's full orchestral setting of Friedrich Rückert's poem on the musings of a weary, despairing artist, one who is "lost to the world", and presents a vocal counterpart to the celebrated and heartbreaking 'Adagietto' in his Fifth Symphony. As such, it is both one of the composer's most personal works and, in a well-chosen phrase in the catalogue description, "almost a touchstone for the beautiful in music". This calligraphically crafted manuscript is warmly inscribed and dedicated to Mahler's friend and supporter, the Austrian musicologist Professor Guido Adler (1856-1941), but it disappeared when his Vienna home was ransacked during the 1938 'Kristallnacht' assaults on Jewish homes. Following Adler's death, it was appropriated by a lawyer appointed to deal with his estate and only restituted to one of his descendants in 2004, following a court case that had lasted four years. The only known autograph source for the orchestral version, it was sold that same year at Sotheby's to the late Gilbert Kaplan. The US businessman and devotee of Mahler's music was an amateur conductor who gave numerous public performances and made recordings with major international orchestras. He also established a foundation devoted to the study and promotion of Mahler's music. Following the manuscript's return to Adler's family, it was sold at Sotheby's for £370,000, but though it fell short of expectations this time, it did sell at £550,000. Just last November, Kaplan's manuscript of Mahler's Symphony No.2, the 'Resurrection', was sold at Sotheby's for £3.9m (see report in ATG No 2271). In this May sale a single sketchleaf, presenting a draft for 'The Last Trump' in the fifth and final movement, made £85,000. Described as "hitherto untraced" and as a "Mahler discovery", a long-lost autograph fair copy for the song from his Kindertotenlieder that in English is rendered 'Now the sun wants to rise as brightly' sold for a high-estimate £190,000. Bach back once again The remaining lots featured in this report follow a roughly chronological path, beginning with a Bach manuscript that has changed hands three or four times in the last hundred years. It scored yet another success when it served as the overture to this London sale. The Bach lot had been in an American collection and unavailable for study for some 20 years, which, with one notable exception*, is also the period of time that has passed since a manuscript wholly in Bach's hand has been put up for public auction. Herr Gott Dich loben alle vir is a two-page manuscript of the revised first violin part for his Cantata No. 130, originally composed as a trumpet part (at Michelmas, 1724) and part of the sequence of great chorale cantatas written in the composer's second year in Leipzig. High expectations for the return of such a rarity were met, and as Lot No 1 it brought a bid of £380,000. Last seen at auction in 1998, when Sotheby's sold it for £80,000, a leaf containing the opening of Mozart's famous Rondo in A for Piano and Orchestra (K386), signed and dated 1782, was sold this time at £240,000. Sold for £150,000 was an autograph leaf in which Beethoven tries out early ideas for all three movements of his Piano Concerto No. 5 in E flat major, one of his greatest compositions and familiarly known as the 'Emperor'. Beethoven's pupil, Archduke Rudolph of Austria, was the dedicatee and took the solo part when the concerto was first performed in 1811, but other distinguished previous owners include Friederich Schneider, soloist at another early performance in Leipzig. It was last offered at auction in 1996, when Stargardt of Berlin sold it for around £24,000. Another of the sale's more keenly pursued lots was a large autograph album leaf, signed and dated Paris 1844, on which Chopin has copied out the opening of his Étude in A-flat major, Op 25, No. 1, first published in 1837. It sold for £140,000. Brahms tunes in Manuscripts of complete works by Brahms are rare at auction, and an early working draft for his Organ Fugue in A flat minor, which was first published in 1864, prompted enthusiastic bidding. It is signed, dedicated and inscribed to Clara Schumann, apparently on the occasion of her husband Robert's birthday in 1856. During this period, Brahms was spending much of his time at the Schumanns' home in Dusseldorf, as their protégé. It remained with Clara's descendants until 1998, when it was sold by Sotheby's at £21,000, but this time the price was a double-estimate £110,000. Among the more recent musical manuscripts was the full orchestral score for 'Doubles', Pierre Boulez' first work for large orchestra – premiered in Paris in 1958. It doubled the high estimate to sell at £80,000. One of the few printed works in the sale was a 1724 first of Rameau's Pièces de clavessin…. The only example recoded at auction, it seems, this example in 18th cenury half calf, is one that in 1964 was given by Imogen Holst to the keyboard virtuoso George Malcolm and is warmly inscribed "…A thank you for the Rameau performance… at Aldeburgh". It sold at £60,000 – four times the high estimate. * At Christie's in July 2016, the manuscript of Bach's Prelude, Fugue & Allegro in E flat major for lute or keyboard sold for £2.18m.

2KINGS 7-8: Yesterday we heard two more chapters containing fascinating miracles performed by Elisha. The story about Gahazi getting the gifts from Naaman, and the vision about the chariots of fire both have interesting spiritual significance to ponder. We come back to the story from chapter 7 where the Aramean army is surrounding Samaria. The famine is severe. The king has sent an executioner to kill Elisha. And then: 32 NLT Elisha was sitting in his house with the elders of Israel when the king sent a messenger to summon him. But before the messenger arrived, Elisha said to the elders, "A murderer has sent a man to cut off my head. When he arrives, shut the door and keep him out. We will soon hear his master's steps following him." 33 GNT He had hardly finished saying this, when the king arrived and said, "It's the Lord who has brought this trouble on us! Why should I wait any longer for him to do something?" Laughter, joy, and tears are in this often quoted psalm. JOHN 12a: In yesterday's reading, Jesus worked his biggest miracle so far in the story— the raising of Lazarus, and the Jewish leaders became even firmer in their plans to kill Him. John 12:4 One of Jesus' disciples, Judas[— who was from the village of Carioth, and//Iscariot—] the one who was going to betray him—said, He said this, not because he cared about the poor, but because he was a thief. 6 He carried the [disciples'] money bag and would help himself from it. 24 I am telling you the truth: a grain of wheat remains no more than a single grain unless it [falls//is dropped] into the ground and dies. If it does die, then it produces many grains. 25 Those who love their [life in this world//own life] will lose it; those who [think nothing of (NLT)//hate] their [0//own] life in this world will keep it for life eternal. John 12:4 But Judas [, the man from the village of Carioth// Iscariot], the disciple who would soon betray him, said, 28 [Rather, I pray,] Father, bring glory to your name." Then a voice spoke from heaven, saying, "I have already brought glory to my name, and I will do so again." 39 But the people couldn't believe, for as Isaiah [reported the Lord's words//also said], 40 "[I have//The Lord has] blinded their eyes and hardened their hearts— so that their eyes cannot see, and their hearts cannot understand, and they cannot turn to me and have me heal them." 41 Isaiah['s prophecy] was referring to Jesus when he said this, because he saw the future and spoke of the Messiah's glory. 42 Many people did believe in him, however, including some of the Jewish leaders. But they wouldn't admit it for fear that the Pharisees would expel them from the synagogue[s]. 44 Jesus shouted to the crowds, "If you [believe in/trust] me, you are [not just believing in//trusting not only] me, but also God who sent me. 47 I will not judge those who hear me but don't obey me, for I have come to save the world [,//and] not to judge it.

The Anne Frank Center USA is Proud to Present a Special Screening of "The Search for the White Rose" Join us Wednesday, February 18 from 6:30-8:30 for a special screening of Peter Logue's short film about Sophie and Hans Scholl, the leaders of the White Rose resistance movement against the Nazis. To mark the 72nd anniversary of the arrests and subsequent executions of Sophie and Hans Scholl, The Anne Frank Center USA is proud to present Peter Logue's short film about the White Rose resistance movement. The event is part of our "Helpers, Heroes and Liberators" season commemorating the 70th anniversary of the end of World War II in Europe. In 1942, amidst inexplicable evil and destruction, a small group of University of Munich students and one professor found themselves morally incapable of remaining silent. They formed a clandestine resistance movement that urged their countrymen to listen to their conscience and stand up against the atrocities being committed by the Third Reich. Through the publication and distribution of six anti-Nazi leaflets, they worked tirelessly, at the risk of their own lives, to have their message reach every corner of their country. The White Rose implored Germans to consider the "dimensions of shame that will befall us and our children when one day the veil has fallen from our eyes and the most horrible of crimes - crimes that infinitely outdistance every human measure - reach the light of day." The six members of the White Rose movement were arrested by the Gestapo, tried for treason and executed in 1943. This short documentary focuses on retelling the story of the small group of German students who formed this resistance against the Nazis. Through extensive interviews with scholars and current University of Munich students, "The Search for the White Rose" explores the legacy of the movement for a new generation of German students, asking how such stories of resistance have helped shape their sense of German identity. Followed by a Q&A with the film maker.

Brivudin ist ein Arzneistoff, der als Virostatikum gegen Herpes simplex Typ 1 und Herpes Zoster eingesetzt werden kann. Es gehört zur Gruppe der Nukleosidanaloga. Im Vergleich zu anderen Nukleosidanaloga (Aciclovir, Valaciclovir, Famciclovir) zeichnet es sich durch eine wesentlich (200- bis 1000-fach) höhere antivirale Potenz aus und durch eine lange Halbwertszeit sowie intrazelluläre Verweildauer. Die häufigste Nebenwirkung ist Übelkeit, insgesamt sind Nebenwirkungen aber selten. Geschichte Brivudin wurde schon in den 1970er Jahren in England und der damaligen DDR hergestellt. Aber erst seit einer Indikationsänderung im Jahr 2001 findet es breitere Verwendung. Bis zum Jahr 2000 war es zur Therapie von Herpes-simplex-Infektionen zugelassen. Seit 2001 wird es zur Behandlung von Herpes zoster angewendet. Pharmakologie Wirkmechanismus Brivudin ist ein Thymidin-Antimetabolit, es wirkt gegen DNA-Viren. In mehreren Phosphorylierungsschritten wird Brivudin zum Triphosphat aktiviert. Die Aktivierung erfolgt nur in der virusinfizierten Zelle, weil der Vorgang durch eine virale Thymidinkinase katalysiert wird. Die Triphosphate stellen die eigentliche Wirkform dar. Sie führen zur Hemmung der viralen DNA-Polymerase, zum Einbau von veränderten Nukleinbasen in die DNA und folglich zum Kettenabbruch während der DNA-Elongation. Brivudin-Triphosphat hat eine sehr lange intrazelluläre Verweildauer von 10 Stunden, so dass es auch genug Zeit hat, um seine Wirkung in der von Viren befallenen Zellen zu entfalten. Da Brivudin nur die Virusreplikation hemmt, aber nicht das Virus selbst schädigt, kann es nur den Infektionsablauf unterdrücken. Es kann aber keine Erregereradikation bewirken und die für Herpesviren typischen Rezidive nicht verhindern. Wirkspektrum Brivudin hat eine hohe Aktivität gegen Herpesviren. Es ist wirksam gegen Herpes simplex Typ 1 und gegen Varicella-Zoster-Viren. Dagegen ist es gegen Herpes simplex Typ 2 (z. B. genitale Infektionen) kaum wirksam. In vitro ist Brivudin auch gegen das Epstein-Barr-Virus wirksam. Eine Fallstudie zur Behandlung einer EBV-Enzephalitis bestätigte die Wirksamkeit auch in vivo. Wirksamkeit Brivudin ist wesentlich stärker gegen Herpesviren wirksam als andere Nukleosidanaloga (z. B. Aciclovir). Als Kriterium wird die Zeit vom Beginn der Behandlung bis zum letztmaligen Auftreten neuer Bläschen herangezogen. Bei Aciclovir beträgt diese Zeitspanne 18 Stunden, bei Brivudin 13 bis 14 Stunden. Darüber hinaus tritt die postzosterische Neuralgie nach einer Behandlung mit Brivudin signifikant seltener auf als nach einer Behandlung mit Aciclovir. Gegenüber Famciclovir zeigt sich kein Unterschied. Die signifikant bessere Wirksamkeit von Brivudin gegenüber Aciclovir ist umstritten. Das arznei-telegramm verweist auf mögliche Interessenskonflikte der Verfasser der Brivudin-favorisierenden AWMF-Leitlinie und bezweifelt die klinische Relevanz der maßgeblichen Studien. Bei der Behandlung von Herpes corneae ist Brivudin gegenüber Idoxuridin signifikant überlegen. Indikationen und Dosierung Brivudin ist indiziert bei Herpes zoster und Herpes simplex Typ 1. Insbesondere bei Patienten über 50 Jahren ist es für diese Indikation das Mittel der Wahl. Es wird oral angewendet. Die Standarddosierung beim Erwachsenen beträgt 125 mg pro Tag über 7 Tage. Die Tablette soll jeden Tag ungefähr zum gleichen Zeitpunkt eingenommen werden. Bei Patienten mit Nieren- oder Leberinsuffizienz ist keine Dosisanpassung nötig. Wichtig für den Behandlungserfolg ist, dass die Therapie möglichst innerhalb von 72 Stunden nach dem Beginn der Hautsymptomatik erfolgt (= Phase der Virusreplikation). Ein späterer Behandlungsbeginn ist noch sinnvoll, solange noch frische Bläschen vorhanden sind, wenn sich Anzeichen einer viszeralen Ausbreitung zeigen oder bei floridem Zoster ophthalmicus und Zoster oticus. Nebenwirkungen Brivudin wird meistens gut vertragen. Die häufigsten Nebenwirkungen betreffen den Gastrointestinaltrakt: bei 2 % der Patienten kommt es zu Übelkeit. Auch eine Diarrhoe (Durchfall) kann auftreten. Seltene Nebenwirkungen sind: Störungen des Nervensystems: Kopfschmerzen, Schwindel etc., Müdigkeit oder Schlafstörungen, Anstieg von Serum-Kreatinin und -harnstoff (Hinweise auf Einschränkung der Nierenfunktion), Überempfindlichkeitsreaktionen der Haut, Blutbildveränderungen (reversibel). Wechselwirkungen und Anwendungsbeschränkungen Brivudin darf nicht gleichzeitig oder zeitnah mit dem Zytostatikum 5-Fluoruracil oder anderen 5-Fluorpyrimidinen (z. B. Tegafur) verabreicht werden. Mindestens 4 Wochen müssen zwischen der Gabe dieser Medikamente liegen, da der Metabolit des Brivudins, Bromvinyluracil, irreversibel das Enzym Dihydropyrimidindehydrogenase hemmt, das für den Abbau von Pyrimidinen zuständig ist. Das führt zu einer Kumulation und erhöhten Toxizität von 5-Fluoruracil, verbunden mit der Gefahr schwerer Nebenwirkungen: erhebliche gastrointestinale Störungen, Neutropenie und Knochenmarksdepression. Bei der gleichzeitigen Gabe von 5-Fluoruracil und Sorivudin, welches so wie Brivudin zum Metaboliten Bromvinyluracil abgebaut wird, hat diese Interaktion sogar zu Todesfällen geführt. Diese potenziell tödliche Wechselwirkung mit antineoplastisch (5-Fluorouracil, Capecitabin, Floxuridin, Tegafur) oder antimykotisch wirksamen 5-Fluoropyrimidinen (5-Fluorcytosin) ist prinzipiell auch für Brivudin bedeutsam. Mit Datum vom 12. Mai 2020 erschien ein weiterer Rote-Hand-Brief mit folgendem Inhalt: "Es können Todesfälle infolge einer Arzneimittelwechselwirkung zwischen Brivudin und Fluoropyrimidinen (z. B. Fluorouracil (5-FU), Capecitabin, Tegafur, Flucytosin) auftreten. Nach Abschluss der Brivudin-Behandlung muss eine mindestens vierwöchige Wartezeit, eingehalten werden, bevor die Behandlung mit einem Fluoropyrimidin begonnen werden kann. In vielen Fällen kam es zu Todesfällen, wenn diese vierwöchige Wartezeit nicht eingehalten wurde (z. B. wurde Brivudin zwischen zwei 5-FU-Zyklen eingenommen)." Verdrängung von Brivudin aus der Plasmaeiweißbindung durch andere Medikamente mit ebenfalls starker Eiweißbindung. Kontraindikationen Schwangerschaft und Stillzeit gleichzeitige Gabe bzw. Gabe in den letzten vier Woche von 5-Fluoropyrimidin-haltigen Medikamenten (siehe vorstehend bei Wechselwirkungen und Anwendungsbeschränkungen) Immunsuppression Kreuzresistenz Eine Kreuzresistenz besteht mit Aciclovir bei Herpes-simplex- und Varicella-Zoster-Viren. Pharmakokinetik Orale Bioverfügbarkeit: 30 % (wegen ausgeprägtem First-Pass-Effekt) Absorption: 85 % Terminale Halbwertszeit: 16 Stunden Ausscheidung: hauptsächlich renal, 20 % via Faeces Brivudin wird nach oraler Gabe fast vollständig enteral resorbiert. Der maximale Plasmaspiegel wird schon nach 1 Stunde erreicht. Mahlzeiten verzögern die Resorption, senken aber die Resorptionsquote selbst nicht. Bei der First-pass-Metabolisierung entsteht zu ca. 65 % der nicht wirksame Metabolit Bromovinyluracil (BVU). Diese unwirksame Substanz entsteht durch das Enzym Pyrimidinphosphorylase, das die Zuckerkomponente abspaltet. Brivudin wird zu über 95 % an Plasmaproteine gebunden, das Verteilungsvolumen beträgt 75 Liter. Bei einer eingeschränkten Nierenfunktion kommt es zu einer deutlichen Verlängerung der Halbwertszeit.

Here at Zco, we get a lot of questions about our services. Below are some of the questions we're asked most frequently. If your query isn't listed or you just want more details, please call us at (603) 881-9200 or email us at any time. Zco's hourly rate for app development is less than $60 per hour. An average app project might cost about $30,000, with functionality and complexity raising or lowering the price accordingly. Will you develop my app idea for profit share? Zco works strictly as a developer for hire. We do not participate in any revenue splits or percentage agreements. That means while you shoulder development costs, you own your app free and clear, including source code and intellectual property. How is my mobile app idea protected? One of the very first steps in the app development timeline is the signing of a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) by both Zco and you, the prospective client. This protects both parties, since we'll be working very closely together. Once it's finished, the app and all its source code and intellectual property belong to you. Simple apps can be completed in a couple weeks, while more complex apps might take several months. The more clearly you've defined your idea and how it will work as an app, the more closely we can estimate a time frame. Can you do iPhone and Android at the same time? Absolutely! Learn more about our mobile app development services. Can we do some of the app development work ourselves? Of course! If you have the technical know how or artwork ready, and just need something specific from us, we can cater to your needs. The idea is yours, so bring as much to the table as you can. Enterprise apps can be distributed on your own private server. How can I make sure my app will get downloads?

What's the difference between a native and a hybrid application? A native app is written specifically for one operating system, like Android or iOS. A hybrid app has some native code but also relies on programming languages that all operating systems can understand. Zco offers both hybrid and native app development services because both approaches have their advantages. Hybrid apps can sometimes be faster and more cost effective to deploy to multiple mobile operating systems, but native apps typically perform more smoothly and quickly. For example, front-end programming for a particular app might cost $10,000 for Android and an additional $10,000 for iOS, totaling $20,000 if both are built natively. A hybrid approach might cost more like $13,000 for both. As always, get in touch at (603) 881-9200 or with other questions.

Human-robot interaction (HRI) is vastly addressed in the field of automation and manufacturing. Most of the HRI literature in manufacturing explored physical human-robot interaction (pHRI) and invested in finding means for ensuring safety and optimized effort sharing amongst a team of humans and robots. The recent emergence of safe, lightweight, and human-friendly robots has opened a new realm for human-robot collaboration (HRC) in collaborative manufacturing. For such robots with the new HRI functionalities to interact closely and effectively with a human coworker, new human-centered controllers that integrate both physical and social interaction are demanded. Social human-robot interaction (sHRI) has been demonstrated in robots with affective abilities in education, social services, health care, and entertainment. Nonetheless, sHRI should not be limited only to those areas. In particular, we focus on human trust in robot as a basis of social interaction. Human trust in robot and robot anthropomorphic features have high impacts on sHRI. Trust is one of the key factors in sHRI and a prerequisite for effective HRC. Trust characterizes the reliance and tendency of human in using robots. Factors within a robotic system (e.g. performance, reliability, or attribute), the task, and the surrounding environment can all impact the trust dynamically. Over-reliance or under-reliance might occur due to improper trust, which results in poor team collaboration, and hence higher task load and lower overall task performance. The goal of this dissertation is to develop intelligent control algorithms for the manipulator robots that integrate both physical and social HRI factors in the collaborative manufacturing. First, the evolution of human trust in a collaborative robot model is identified and verified through a series of human-in-the-loop experiments. This model serves as a computational trust model estimating an objective criterion for the evolution of human trust in robot rather than estimating an individual's actual level of trust. Second, an HRI-based framework is developed for controlling the speed of a robot performing pick and place tasks. The impact of the consideration of the different level of interaction in the robot controller on the overall efficiency and HRI criteria such as human perceived workload and trust and robot usability is studied using a series of human-in-the-loop experiments. Third, an HRI-based framework is developed for planning and controlling the robot motion in performing hand-over tasks to the human. Again, series of human-in-the-loop experimental studies are conducted to evaluate the impact of implementation of the frameworks on overall efficiency and HRI criteria such as human workload and trust and robot usability. Finally, another framework is proposed for the cooperative manipulation of a common object by a team of a human and a robot. This framework proposes a trust-based role allocation strategy for adjusting the proactive behavior of the robot performing a cooperative manipulation task in HRC scenarios. For the mentioned frameworks, the results of the experiments show that integrating HRI in the robot controller leads to a lower human workload while it maintains a threshold level of human trust in robot and does not degrade robot usability and efficiency.

Here is the NEXT card I promised in the last POST , showing the difference in TAPPING the folder versus SWIPING it and you can see the background has a much better coverage! For the Background I inked up the smooth side of the Tim Holtz Sizzix Kaleidoscope 3D Texture Fades Embossing Folder 663296 with Versamark Ink by TAPPING it onto the folder and heat embossed with Gold Ranger Embossing Powder . The sentiment is from Impression Obsession called Season's Greetings DIE594.

Mississauga has chosen to avoid high-rise condominiums along the Mississauga waterfront November 9, 2012 /0 Comments/in Long Branch, Mississauga, Newsletter, Toronto /by Jaan Pill In recent weeks I've attended three community events in two cities. In each case, I attended the event toward the end, after much of it was over. Mimico 20/20 Open House, Nov. 8, 2012 I arrived as the meeting was wrapping up. The City of Toronto planning staff were welcoming and friendly, a quality that I remember from a previous Mimico 20/20 public meeting. Subsequently, I have heard that there is a feeling among some community participants that the information shared represented a 'top-down' approach to the planning process, was lacking in key information, and provided a too-short timeline for community responses. I will comment on this topic further when more information from the community is available. Lakeview Ratepayers Association In the previous week, I attended the tail end of the annual general meeting of the Lakeview Ratepayers Association, held at a seniors' centre in Mississauga. Mississauga Councillor Jim Tovey continues discussion at end of Lakeview Ratepayers Association AGM, October 2012. Jaan Pill photo I was very impressed. Councillor Jim Tovey, who began his career in politics when he was president of the latter association, as I understand, spoke at the meeting of how he envisions future attractiveness and prosperity — he's looking 25 years down the road — in Lakeview, driven by the fact that Mississauga has made a conscious decision to avoid high-rise condos along the Mississauga waterfront. Instead the focus is on mid-rise development along arterial routes, as I understand. That approach stands in contrast, by way example, with the wall of condos emerging on the Humber Bay shoreline in Toronto. The energy in the room was very high and very positive. The rapport between Tovey and the audience was readily apparent. I'm pleased I live close to the Mississauga border so I can see how things are framed in Mississauga. Comparisons are useful as they expand our conceptions of what is possible. Islington Ratepayers and Residents Association This too was an impressive meeting. It was held in a Toronto District School Board school. I had the sense that in this particular community, people had been coming to such meetings for many years. They're keeping the conversations going. Among the speakers was Ward 5 Councillor Peter Peter Milczyn. He gave thoughtful answers to questions and spoke cogently of the wider, City-wide context in which planning decisions are made. I very much like the fact this association welcomes and speaks on behalf of both 'ratepayers' and 'residents.' The tradition of emphasizing the 'ratepayers' as custodians of the decision making process in the community goes back a long way in world history; it's wonderful that in Islington the views of 'residents' are also taken into account. Capital Improvements at Marie Curtis Park I've been following community affairs only for a couple of years, since learning in October 2010 that Parkview School in Long Branch was for sale. One of my ongoing interests concerns how community input regarding development projects works out in practice. That is, a question that invariably arises is: What do we mean when we speak of meaningful community input? I was impressed with what I've seen regarding community input as it relates to Marie Curtis Park, which is close to where I live. Early on, the community communicated that a planned relocation of a parking lot was a source of concern. This was a key topic during an early stage of discussion. In response to community input, the parking lot plans were changed. I was impressed, and inspired. Meaningful community input has been evident in subsequent stages of capital improvements in the park as well. The Colonel Samuel Smith Ice Trail story has similarities. The initial proposed footprint for the outdoor facility, near Kipling Avenue and Lake Shore Blvd. West, was met with community objections. Those objections were taken into account in the final configuration of the footprint. It's turned out to be a successful project. What matters are the practical results of ongoing discussions. What matters are the results on the ground. That's what punctuates the discussion, and brings it to its conclusion. Stormwater Management in South Etobicoke I recall attending a meeting connected with Stormwater Management in South Etobicoke. That was quite a meeting. The residents communicated quite strongly held views expressing the conclusion that an earlier proposal would benefit from major revision. Although it remains to be seen, I had the sense that City of Toronto planning officials may take those views into account. The residents at the meeting spoke in favour of a solution that includes an environmentally sensitive focus, as contrasted to one that emphasizes a large-scale 'engineered' solution. I look forward to following the next stage of that particular consultation process. I also look forward as well to seeing how things work out in Lakeview. From what I've seen to date, I'm impressed. I will be following with interest to see how things work out on the ground, and along the waterfront, in Mississauga and in Toronto. https://preservedstories.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/Preserved-Stories-logo-horizontal-1.png 0 0 Jaan Pill https://preservedstories.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/Preserved-Stories-logo-horizontal-1.png Jaan Pill2012-11-09 04:03:522013-11-28 09:32:18Mississauga has chosen to avoid high-rise condominiums along the Mississauga waterfront Anishinaabe First Nations in the War of 1812 (Nov. 14, 2012) ; OPSBA letter;...

Second Advent Since 2041, Second Advent has identified itself with the G666 brand, a combination of G6 and the number of the beast. Apocalypticism Arnold Boxer John Patmos (disputed) Between 5.5 and 6 million Second Advent is an unrecognised proto-state that occupies large parts of Texas and several territories of the United States (US) through political and military control. It split off from the ultra-fundamentalist Church of Christ Embattled (CCE) in 2036 and evolved into a doomsday cult with a combination of religious and secular motifs to its apocalypticism. It is estimated that Second Advent has between 5.5 and 6 million members in Texas and the US, and an unknown number of international members. The United Nations (UN) has rejected Second Advent's claim to statehood and classified it as a terrorist organisation responsible for committing human rights abuses, genocide, and ecocide. On October 4th 2049, Second Advent leader John Patmos was killed by a drone strike in connection with the assassination of Xu Shaoyong and Yuri Golitsyn. Second Advent has condemned the attack and promised "swift, divine retribution," with online chatter indicating that the cult believes Patmos is still alive. On October 9th 2049, a video address issued by Patmos commanded all Second Advent members to assemble in San Antonio, which has de-escalated hostilities across the US. Opposition to colloids Texan secession Campaign against G6 Assassination of Xu Shaoyong Though its origins remain a matter of debate, most historians agree that Second Advent was formed in September 2036 by a faction of the Church of Christ Embattled (CCE). This ultra-fundamentalist Baptist church was founded in San Antonio, Texas in 2033 and practiced an apocalyptic dogma focused on hastening the return of Christ in order to fulfil the rest of the Messianic prophecy. The CCE, which by 2036 had a membership of 145, advocated "the punishing of violators of the law of God" and repeatedly targeted BIPOC and LGBTQ+ individuals, holding them responsible for "keeping this world in thrall to Satan." During the United States (US)-wide super summer of 2036, almost half of the CCE's parishioners succumbed to primary amoebic meningoencephalitis (PAM) due to a waterborne infection from the free-living amoeba Naegleria fowleri. [1] Refusing aid from San Antonio's mayor, CCE founder Arnold Boxer hailed the PAM infections as "divine discipline," proclaiming his belief that he had been deliberately spared by God to "bring about the Second Advent of Christ" and citing other impacts and effects of anthropogenic climate change as evidence that "the Storm is upon us." In early 2037, Boxer's warnings of a storm and other perceived codes in his language prompted QAnon to rally around Second Advent under the assumption that it was a sting operation enacted by former US President Donald Trump. [2] Online chatter associated with QAnon tags indicated that its adherents began to attribute the Messianic prophecy to Trump, whom they believed had faked his own death in 2023 to covertly prepare for his return to power. This led to QAnon organising Second Advent "chapters" in other US states, often backed by supportive elements of various hate groups and militias, including the Proud Boys and the boogaloo movement. [3] Boxer reportedly embraced this "serendipitous" expansion of Second Advent into far-right circles because it intensified pressure on the targets of his extremist dogma. Second Advent followers on patrol in San Antonio, Texas in 2046. To coordinate its rallies and recruitment efforts, Second Advent made use of Sovereign, which contributed to the platform's shutdown in October 2037. In 2038, QAnon groups in other countries latched onto the Second Advent name and mission, leading to an influx of international followers. During the 2038 midterm elections, a number of Republican politicians inserted dog whistles to Second Advent into their campaign speeches, which further galvanised membership. [4] In February 2039, it was revealed that US Army lieutenant general Brian Friedberg, who was commander of Camp Stanley in Texas, had been organising training exercises in survivalist urban combat with the explicit goal of "preparing for the Second Advent." After he was relieved of his command, Friedberg introduced his training programmes to Second Advent followers and encouraged active-duty members and veterans of the armed forces to join him, leading some observers to describe Second Advent as a paramilitary organisation. [5] Opposition to colloidsPermalink In December 2039, the US announced that it would work with the World Health Organisation (WHO) for the distribution of diagnostic colloids as part of international contact tracing efforts to contain the spread of Cariappa-Muren disease (CMD). In response, Boxer condemned colloids as the mark of the beast and called for the murder of Xu Shaoyong, whom he proclaimed to be the Antichrist. Boxer's opposition to colloids in the context of mitigating the CMD pandemic attracted various anti-vaxxer communities to Second Advent, and the WHO's partnership with Zhupao drew support to the cult from white supremacist, TERM, and ethnonationalist groups. [6] [7] In January 2040, Second Advent started a campaign to intercept shipments of colloids coming into the US, often using military hardware as a show of force or posing as private contractors hired to protect the transports. Many of the intercepted shipments were subsequently destroyed, though some were sold back to the US or on the illicit market as a means of additional funding for Second Advent's activities. In June 2040, the Department of Justice (DOJ) called the actions of Second Advent "examples of domestic terrorism" and announced a series of charges, which led to Second Advent followers firebombing five Texas field offices of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). On July 3rd 2040, the governor of Texas, Andrew Bost, declared a statewide martial law and deployed the National Guard, despite reports that many units had been infiltrated by Second Advent or were sympathetic to its cause. The increasing range of flashpoints across Texas overstretched the National Guard deployments and allowed Second Advent to seize control of San Antonio, with many residents fleeing their homes to find shelter in neighbouring counties. [8] In September 2040, Boxer announced that he would order hostilities in all US states ceased in exchange for a seat on the Republican side of the Texas House of Representatives. Governor Bost initially balked at Boxer's demand but acquiesced at the direction of the DOJ. On September 17th 2040, Boxer was officially sworn in as a state representative. [9] Texan secessionPermalink Boxer's term in the House was most notorious for the heavily armed Second Advent escorts that accompanied him to and from the Texas State Capitol and patrolled the entrance while he was inside. He frequently clashed with other representatives, consistently ignored House rules and parliamentary procedures, and made "vile threats" when he was called out on Second Advent's reported human rights abuses in San Antonio. [10] According to his colleagues, Boxer "pushed non-pertinent legislative issues that never made it to the floor" and "mostly went on long rants about the end times." When China requested an emergency special session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) to propose the international adoption of mìngyùn in November 2040, Boxer held a 43-minute speech to denounce "the works of the Antichrist" and warned of "dire consequences" if the US supported China's proposal. Boxer's threat of violence was seen as the reason for the US opposing an assembly vote at the UNGA session's second sitting on December 11th 2040. When the US ultimately voted in favour of adopting Resolution ES-13/6 on February 11th 2041, Boxer called for "the liberation of Texas to reassert its status as an independent nation under God" and ordered Second Advent to "storm the Capitol." Within minutes of Boxer's order, several Second Advent militias converged on the Texas State Capitol and occupied it. [11] Police forces were quickly overwhelmed and the National Guard was delayed in mobilising, allowing the militias to entrench themselves in the building. Governor Bost, who was captured before he could be evacuated, was executed while other representatives were kept as hostages. After a three-day standoff that left 78 dead and caused severe fire damage to the Capitol, the US capitulated to Second Advent and drew up terms for granting Texas the status of self-governing territory in exchange for "the unmolested passage of any individual or group wishing to leave Texas and enter the United States." [12] In response, Second Advent declared itself "the sole governing authority in the independent nation of Texas" and relocated its capital to San Antonio. [13] Campaign against G6Permalink As Second Advent intensified its occupation of Texas and called for its US chapters to disrupt the deployment of G6 under the G666 brand, United Nations Secretary-General (UNSG) Maria Vahekeni Cardoso called an emergency meeting of the Security Council in March 2041 to discuss a response. Due to opposition from the US and China, the meeting was adjourned without agreeing on a joint statement. Further attempts to come to a council resolution on the matter of Second Advent have met with similar results. [14] In October 2041, the United Nations Office of Counter-Terrorism (UNOCT) classified Second Advent as a terrorist organisation. Second Advent leader John Patmos during his last public appearance in 2042. In January 2042, Boxer died of an undisclosed illness rumoured to be CMD due to his increasingly erratic behaviour in the months leading up to his death. After a mourning period, Second Advent hosted an online leadership election in which more than 2.6 million members participated. On February 1st 2042, John Patmos was elected leader of Second Advent with 72% of the vote. Though a relative unknown compared to the other candidates, Patmos had been mentioned by Boxer as "a saviour of God's Promised America" due to his financial ties to Second Advent, which caused him to be celebrated as a foundational figure ahead of the election. [15] On February 11th 2042, Patmos livestreamed a three-hour sermon in which he denounced the use of G6 and colloids, quoted heavily from the Book of Revelation, and promised "delivery from the final Storm." Following the sermon, Second Advent intensified its physical and cyberattacks against G6 infrastructure in the US, including the bombings of G6 hubs and the kidnapping of Datalign personnel. When US authorities attributed some of these attacks to Five of Swords (FoS), the group issued a message through Vessel which stated: not_us.we/want/to_end/G6_but/not_like_this. FoS has since launched multiple crowdsourced investigations of Second Advent, with most information about the cult's inner workings originating from these probes as well as multiple undercover operations. Assassination of Xu ShaoyongPermalink On October 3rd 2049, Second Advent was implicated in the assassination of Xu and Yuri Golitsyn after the Chinese investigation uncovered evidence that the cyberattack originated from a Second Advent training camp in California. At 07:16 CDT on October 4th 2049, Patmos was killed by a drone strike at Second Advent's headquarters outside San Antonio. The strike has been claimed by China and condemned by Second Advent, promising "swift, divine retribution" and calling on all chapters in the US to "root out the evil that withholds our salvation." On October 5th 2049, Second Advent followers began to incite violence in several US states, including the destruction of G6 hubs in Indiana and Washington. As a result, the US has declared a state of emergency, with the National Guard deployed to "stem the tide of violence." [16] On October 9th 2049, a video address from Patmos was uploaded to one of Second Advent's networks, ordering "all soldiers of the Second Advent to gather in San Antonio, where lies salvation from the Storm." The address has de-escalated hostilities across the US, with reports indicating that Second Advent members have begun to make their way to Texas. The source of the video is currently under investigation, though an early FoS analysis indicates that it was generated by artificial intelligence (AI) from the likeness and voice patterns of Patmos, with Second Advent dismissing these findings as "deepfake news." On October 10th 2049, Second Advent celebrated the disclosure of acquired deficiency of the interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (ADIRA), attributing it to the Storm and hailing Patmos for "unleashing a great plague that will wash away those who have succumbed to the Antichrist." IdeologyPermalink Second Advent rejects the labels of a doomsday cult and a terrorist organisation, referring to itself as a "congregation" in its official communications. Its ideology has been described as "a self-contradictory, self-reinforcing, ever-evolving quagmire of prophecies, conspiracy theories, and mass delusions that's impossible to discredit or argue against." It is primarily centred around a great battle, commonly referred to as the Storm, that is either coming soon or currently being fought, with anthropogenic climate change as a recurring justification for enacting violence. Second Advent's opposition to colloids, and by extension G6, stems from its latent religious elements, which considers the modern world "as one where each person is marked for identification by a corrupt government headed by the Antichrist." This belief stems from a quote from the Book of Revelation, Chapter 13, Verse 16-18: And he shall make all, both little and great, rich and poor, freemen and bondmen, to have a character in their right hand, or on their foreheads. And that no man might buy or sell, but he that hath the character, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. He that hath understanding, let him count the number of the beast. For it is the number of a man, and the number of him is six hundred sixty-six. The FoS investigations have indicated that Second Advent has adopted a series of religious practices around staying cool, such as prolonged baptisms by complete immersion. [17] FinancesPermalink According to several studies conducted by the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), Second Advent's primary source of funding derives from the extraction and export of oil from the oil fields that were captured during its takeover of Texas. [18] It is estimated that Second Advent generates an average of 2.7 million barrels of oil per day, though repeated infrastructure failures and worker heat strokes have impacted production. Most of the oil produced in Texas is exported to the US. [14] Second Advent also generates proceeds from the US territories it occupies, including control of banks, taxation, extortion, kidnapping for ransom, and robbery of economic assets. In some states, Second Advent chapters enjoy a federal income tax exemption on religious grounds. According to Zhupao, Second Advent has been known to salvage information technology (IT) equipment from G6 hubs prior to bombing them, selling the equipment on the illicit market or repurposing it as material support for the cult's cyberattacks. Other sources of income include fundraising, donations by or through non-profit organisations, and political contributions. From 2036 to 2041, Second Advent received regular payouts from Coradial as part of a scheme that "allowed for Chinese corporations and government ministries to easily and discreetly invest millions into American political affairs."

Die Missa brevis super Christ lag in Todes Banden ist eine Komposition von Georg Philipp Telemann (TWV 9:3). Die nur aus Kyrie und Gloria bestehende Missa brevis verwendet alle Melodiezeilen von Martin Luthers Osterlied Christ lag in Todes Banden als Themen. Überlieferung Von Telemann sind elf Kurzmessen auf der Basis lutherischer Kirchenmelodien überliefert, geschaffen nach Vorbildern mitteldeutscher Komponisten der vorigen und vorvorigen Generation. Das einzige im Autograph erhaltene Werk aus diesem Zyklus, die Missa über Allein Gott in der Höh sei Ehr (TWV 9:2), trägt die Jahreszahl 1720. Telemann war von 1712 bis 1721 Musikdirektor in Frankfurt am Main; auch die Missa über Christ lag in Todes Banden wird in diese Zeit datiert. Von ihr existiert nur eine Partiturabschrift in der Bibliothek des Königlichen Konservatoriums Brüssel, versehen mit der liturgischen Bestimmung In Festo Pasch[atos] – "Zum Osterfest". Den Erstdruck besorgte Klaus Hofmann 2011. Musik Das etwa acht Minuten dauernde Werk in a-Moll ist im Stile antico gehalten und besteht fast ausschließlich aus Fugen, deren Hauptthemen dem dorischen Osterlied entnommen sind. Längere homophone Passagen finden sich zwischen Gratias und Quoniam. Die Besetzung ist vierstimmiger Chor mit Instrumenten colla parte. Die Worte Gloria in excelsis Deo sind nicht mitkomponiert; sie wurden vom Liturgen, heute meist von einem Chorsolisten, gregorianisch angestimmt. Die Themen sind Kyrie eleison – Christ lag in Todes Banden Christe eleison – für unser Sünd gegeben Kyrie eleison – Der ist wieder erstanden + Christe eleison – und hat uns bracht das Leben Et in terra pax – Des wir sollen fröhlich sein Gratias agimus tibi – Gott loben und dankbar sein Quoniam tu solus sanctus – und singen: Halleluja Cum Sancto Spiritu in gloria Dei Patris – Halleluja Amen – Halleluja Ausgaben Klaus Hofmann (Hrsg.): Georg Philipp Telemann: Missa brevis zum Osterfest über "Christ lag in Todes Banden".

If you're in the business of repairing vehicles after an accident, you're either in, or soon will be in, the vehicle diagnostics business. The proliferation of electronic components and data buses is forcing the collision industry to join the scan tool revolution. Approximately 67 percent of collision shops already own a scan tool. Just 10 years ago, the average vehicle had one to three electronic control modules. By contrast, the 2008 F-150 Ford pickup has 20 control modules, 50 sensors and 40 actuators running on three data networks. Some luxury vehicles have more than 70 electronic modules on-board! Until now, collision repair shops have had two options to deal with complex vehicle electronics: outsource or invest. Outsourcing or subletting requires no investment in tools or training, and costs can generally be invoiced. However, costs can only be invoiced at face value, without any up-charge. With in-house diagnostics, you can charge for your time and increase your profit opportunities. Towing fees and increased rental car charges – insurers don't want to pay more. More time – customers want their cars back quickly. Supplements – because diagnostic-related repairs aren't visible at the estimating stage, supplemental approvals for work and parts beyond the original estimate may be necessary – which means more time. Sooner or later, you're going to have to acquire the tools, training and information to deal with complex diagnostic problems. You'll need a diagnostic tool that can read and clear diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) on OBD II-equipped vehicles (1996 and newer). These tools range in price and functionality, with the most basic only helping to diagnose emissions-related issues. If you're repairing a lot of TPMS (tire pressure monitoring systems), restraint and other systems, you'll need a scan tool with more features. Some tools may even offer "troubleshooting tips," but these tips typically don't address the types of repairs a collision shop sees. Therefore, you'll need to supplement your diagnostic tool with access to OE information. Once a code has been identified, you need the proper repair procedures, including factory technical service bulletins (TSBs). TSBs can save a lot of time and frustration if a component or procedure has been updated since the original information was published.

What if by reimagining school health, we could harness the power of schools to reduce health and educational disparities at the same time? In the Spring of 2015, Freddie Gray's death in police custody prompted an uprising in Southwest Baltimore that directly impacted the neighborhoods where students at KIPP Baltimore school, the site of this project, and their families live. When school opened after the uprising, teachers remarked that many students seemed relatively unfazed by the chaos that had erupted around them. The challenges that children in Baltimore had faced for generations were laid bare in the national media, but it was business as usual, even for the youngest children. Our team has worked at Johns Hopkins' Harriet Lane Clinic for years providing culturally-competent, community-linked child and family services to highly-vulnerable families in Baltimore. Nonetheless, the uprising underscored that to address the root causes of intergenerational transmission of disadvantage and poor health, we need to leave the clinic and go where kids and families spend their time: schools. Equally importantly, we need partner with schools, not simply co-locate clinical services in schools, to provide what it takes to be healthy and ready to learn. Beyond meeting every student's basic healthcare needs, we need to link students with mental health services and scaffold the skills that facilitate both health and academic achievement across the life span. This happens in classrooms, playgrounds and hallways, as well as in clinical settings. Children growing up in poverty are, overall, less healthy than their more advantaged peers. This is due to their greater exposure to a variety of health risks (e.g., limited primary care, poor nutrition, lack of physical activity, trauma, family instability). Poor physical and mental health in childhood negatively impacts attention, learning, persistence, and school engagement, as well as future educational achievement and attainment. Given the interdependent relationship between health and educational outcomes, promoting a healthy foundation for poor children is key to closing the achievement gap. To date, however, health and educational interventions have been implemented separately, limiting their overall impact on child health outcomes. Children growing up in poverty are, overall, less healthy than their more advantaged peers. This is due to their greater exposure to a variety of health risks (e.g., limited primary care, poor nutrition, lack of physical activity, trauma, family instability). Poor physical and mental health in childhood negatively impacts attention, learning, and school engagement, as well as future educational achievement and attainment. Given the interdependent relationship between health and educational outcomes, promoting a healthy foundation for socioeconomically disadvantaged children is key to closing the achievement gap. To date, however, health and educational interventions have been implemented separately, limiting their overall impact. Schools provide a natural setting in which to address children's health and psychosocial needs. Though many school-based health clinics exist, their services are typically limited in scope, restricted to a subset of students, and not integrated with educational activities. Given the acute and complex needs of children in poverty, a new approach to school health is needed. This approach must: 1) provide comprehensive pediatric care tailored to the needs of children in poverty; 2) promote the foundations of wellbeing for all students (healthy behaviors, socio-emotional skills development, stress management) as part of the school day; and 3) promote a positive school climate. By working in partnership, health and educational stakeholders can address the shared determinants of health and educational disparities that limit opportunities for students to achieve their full potential. In August 2015, with a gift from philanthropy, Johns Hopkins University, under contract with the Baltimore City Health Department, partnered with KIPP Baltimore school to launch the Rales Health Center (RHC). KIPP Baltimore is a Baltimore City Public charter school whose student body (n=1,500 students) is 99% African American and 88% free-lunch eligible. RHC is staffed by a pediatrician, nurse practitioner, two school nurses, a medical assistant, a school wellness coordinator, and a family advocate. A mental health team is also on site. RHC provides school health services (i.e., school nursing) to all students in the school, as well as pediatric care including acute care, chronic disease management, and preventive health services for health center enrollees. Schoolwide efforts include screening, and health campaigns for all students. In addition, RHC staff explicitly work in partnership with school leadership and staff to identify and address student psychosocial needs that impact education, e.g., promoting attendance, attending individualized education plan meetings and parent-teacher conferences, and screening students with disciplinary problems for unmet psychosocial, mental health or other medical needs. In the fully integrated RHC model, clinicians are focused on wellness and prevention, rather than simply health care and treatment of disease. Further, RHC engages with students and families where they already spend time and makes addressing wellness a natural part of the fabric of families' lives. The expectation that wellness is both attainable and accessible, is critical to building student, family, and community well being. Last year, "Janae", a student with asthma was absent 23 days. She was sent home from school repeatedly by the school nurse, and her mother struggled to pick her up while keeping her job. This year, when the Rales Health Center (RHC) opened, they determined that she had not been taking her asthma medication because it was challenging to get to the pharmacy. The RHC team now has her asthma medication delivered to school and she takes it with a nurse every day. Her symptoms are under control so she is participating in an after-school kickball program and a healthy cooking class. She is learning mindfulness based stress reduction and socio-emotional skills in her classroom. She has missed only 2 days of school. This year, Rales Health Center (RHC) at KIPP Baltimore had more than 16,800 visits to the school nurse, and more than 1000 visits to the pediatrician or nurse practitioner. RHC avoided more than 60 emergency department visits through services including prescription delivery to school, treatment by a doctor in school, and more than 4200 visits for daily medication administration and chronic disease management (e.g, asthma, diabetes, ADHD). More than 100 students were found to have vision problems and received glasses to facilitate school success and engagement. A variety of wellness programs including student mindfulness, conflict resolution and life skills, reproductive health education, oral health screening, before and after school physical activity programs, as well as parent and teacher-focused wellness programs (yoga, cooking, fitness contests) helped us to reach every student. This project is currently supported by philanthropy. Health care reform provides a window of opportunity for program sustainability. The Affordable Care Act provides support for establishing new primary care access points. Further, providers and insurers are compensated (or penalized) based on their ability to meet population health and quality of care benchmarks, suggesting that insurers are a key potential future source of funding. This program is arguably the most comprehensive school health model in the country. While many excellent school based health centers exist, and there are outstanding models for wellness programs in the community (some of whom we partner with in this endeavor), the unique value proposition for this project is integrating both direct provision of health care and preventive services, along with weaving health into children's everyday lives at school. This is designed to promote the health and achievement of the whole school, including staff, not just the students who seek health care. Alignment of healthcare, public health, and educational sectors requires common priorities, cost-sharing, and a systematic approach to data sharing. To date, data sharing has been limited by historical separation between health and educational stakeholders and by privacy laws. Linked health and educational data systems and a consistent approach to addressing privacy laws (HIPAA/FERPA) to support communication are needed to fully realize the power of schools in promoting student health and well being. The main beneficiary community is students, parents, staff and community members at KIPP Baltimore, a public charter school in over Baltimore City. We provide health services, and we partner with the school to support wellness programs that are designed to reach the whole community (e.g., a FunRun, cooking classes, stress reduction classes). These activities take place daily throughout the school year. A parent advisory committee guides programming, identifies priorities, and provides feedback. A school wellness committee includes, including staff, parents, students and wellness experts. We engaged in a community needs assessment before launching the Rales Health Center, soliciting the input of families, school staff, and community members. We have an active parent advisory group, led by a team member with expertise in community organizing. The parent advisory group explicitly focuses on building parents' voice in programming and leadership skills for change making and as a vehicle for promoting equity and inclusion. The goal of this project is to provide proof of concept for scaling of the model to other urban settings and school districts. Johns Hopkins University researchers will carefully evaluate the impact and cost-effectiveness of this program for the healthcare and educational systems and for society. This kind of evaluation data, which is critical to justifying further integration between healthcare and educational sectors, is currently lacking. This program is focused on helping children get the tools they need to thrive- good health, strong socioemotional skills, supportive and nurturing learning environments, and tools to help them deal with the adversity and challenge that they face. Activities such as mindfulness based stress reduction, socio-emotional skills development, and promotion of positive school climate help to create conditions of safety, belonging, and well-being. Co-Directors of the Rales Center, Drs. Tina Cheng and Sara Johnson have been working to reduce health and educational disparities in Baltimore City for many years. Our clinic, the Johns Hopkins Harriet Lane Clinic is a national model for addressing the social determinants of health. Nonetheless, many of our patients were not making it to the clinic, so we needed to go where kids and families spend time: school. Child health and educational outcomes are interdependent, and we came to realize we should address the shared determinants of health and educational disparities in an integrated way. Thanks for sharing the story. Being a leader of the research group (Basic Education in Richmond and https://hireessaywriter.org Basic Education Tips), I know myself that exceptional leaders are invariably down to earth and humble people. They do not fish for compliments or endeavor to be in the spotlight. Quite the contrary. It is for others to highlight their achievements and glorify them. As part of their position and due to their knowledge and skills, they are expected to be the spokesperson for the organization. Eventually, leaders are only concerned about results and the best possible manner to achieve them. Excellent job Sara! I am rooting for you and the entire Rales Center team!! hi Sara - I enjoyed learning more about your work likely a direct result of Awesome partners in your network. Congrats on your early successes!

Proposed EU Directive on Shell Entities – The Impact on International Business On 22 December 2021, the European Commission (the "Commission") published a proposed directive with the stated intention being to prevent the misuse of so-called 'shell' entities for tax purposes, described as the "Unshell Directive". The new proposals are aimed at entities that do not maintain sufficient substance within the EU. Entities that do not satisfy these substance requirements are subject to additional reporting requirements. They will be unable to access the benefits of double tax treaties and EU tax directives. Significantly, other EU Member States, such as those paying to the entity, or those in whom shareholders are resident, will be entitled to impose tax on the income of the entity. Implementation and Timelines Currently, these changes are set out in a proposal by the Commission for a directive. The legal basis for the Unshell Directive is stated to be Article 115 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union ("Article 115"). Article 115 provides for the Council of the EU, acting unanimously and after consulting the European Parliament and the Economic and Social Committee, to issue final directive proposals. There is no certainty that the Unshell Directive will be adopted, either in its current or any form. If it is adopted, the rules may differ substantially from those originally published. If unanimous approval of the Council is achieved, the Unshell Directive would then be published in the Official Journal of the EU. In terms of timing, the Commission proposal is that Member States should implement the final Unshell Directive by 30 June 2023, with the provisions to apply across the EU from 1 January 2024. Excluded Entities Certain entities are excluded from the new rules. Excluded entities include: Companies having a transferable security admitted to trading or listed on a regulated market or multilateral trading facility. At present, the rules indicate that only EU markets are relevant for this exemption. Alternative investment funds (AIFs) managed by an AIFM, credit institutions, UCITS funds, insurance and pension undertakings. Holding entities that are situated in the same jurisdiction as their beneficial owners and their operational subsidiaries, and certain defined consolidated holding undertakings which are situated in the same jurisdiction as their shareholder or ultimate parent entity. Undertakings with at least five own full-time equivalent employees or members of staff exclusively carrying out the activities generating the relevant income. Entities that qualify as securitisation special purpose entities. These exclusions should mean that many mainstream EU securitisation companies and funds should be exempt. Entities Within Scope An entity will be within the scope if it satisfies each of three 'gateway' tests. Those tests ask whether: The entity derives more than 75% of its income from sources defined as 'relevant income'. Relevant income includes 'passive' type income such as dividends and interest, although it is important to note that may be received as part of an active or trading business. The definition also includes royalties and other income generated from intellectual or intangible property as well as income from insurance, banking and other financial activities and financial assets. The entity is engaged in cross-border activity such that more than 60% of its assets or 60% of its income is earned or paid out of cross-border transactions. In the preceding two years, the entity has outsourced the administration of its day-to-day operations and decision-making on significant functions. The governance of an entity and its decision making processes will be important to the third gateway test. The test applies for the preceding two years. As the Unshell Directive is due to come into force in 2024, measures taken in 2022 and 2023 could be examined as part of this test. As noted below, if an entity meets all three gateway tests, it will then be in scope of the Directive with a minimum of onerous reporting requirements, so a careful analysis will be needed at this stage. Reporting Requirements for Entities Within Scope Once an entity meets all three gateway tests, it becomes subject to a reporting obligation which will add to its compliance burden. The entity is required to report in its tax return to its Member State of residence on certain "substance" characteristics. The entity must show that it has the following substance requirements: its own premises, or premises for its exclusive use, in the Member State; at least one own and active bank account in the EU; and at least: (i) one director with the appropriate qualifications and decision making authority who is not an employee of an unaffiliated entity and does not act as a director of an unaffiliated entity and who is resident in or near the Member State of residence of the entity and / or (ii) the majority of employees of the entity are resident in or near the Member State of residence of the entity. An entity that passes the gateway tests and cannot demonstrate the substance characteristics set out above, will be considered a shell entity for the purposes of the new rules. Options for Rebuttal of Presumption that an Entity is a Shell The European Commission states that it recognises that the 'substance test' is based on indicators and as such may fail to capture the specific facts and circumstances of each individual case. For that reason, the Unshell Directive allows entities to rebut the presumption that they are shell entities in one of two ways, either by proving that (i) the entity has substance or (ii) it is not misused for tax purposes. This latter provision envisages that a comparative analysis be provided to the tax authority to show that the interposition of the entity does not lead to a tax benefit for its beneficial owners, by comparing the amount of overall tax due by the beneficial owners without the interposition of the entity to what would be due with that entity in place. Where an entity can prove that it is not used to obtain a tax advantage, a Member State can exempt it from any negative tax implications that would otherwise apply by virtue of it having no minimal substance. Both of the rebuttal exceptions can be applied by a Member State for a period of five years. Tax Consequences of Being a Shell Once an undertaking is presumed to be a shell for the purposes of the Unshell Directive, and does not rebut such presumption, certain tax consequences will apply. The Member State of residence of the entity should refuse to issue a tax residence certificate for that entity or should incorporate a warning statement on any certificate of tax residence issued. Other Member States shall disallow or disregard any double taxation agreements with the Member State of residence, and under certain EU directives, such as the EU Interest and Royalty Directive and the EU Parent Subsidiary Directive. The EU Member State of the shell entity's shareholders will be entitled to tax the relevant income of the shell entity while taking a deduction for any tax paid by the shell entity. Where a shell entity's shareholders are not in the EU, any EU jurisdiction making payments to the shell entity shall be entitled to apply to withholding tax on payments to the shell entity. Exchange of Information and Cross-Border Audit The Unshell Directive provides for the automatic exchange of information between Member States of all entities in scope of the Unshell Directive, regardless of whether these are shell entities or not. This would be done through an amended version of the EU DAC6 Directive. It also allows a Member State to request the performance of a tax audit with respect to a broader group of undertakings that are treated as being at risk (but are not necessarily deficient in substance for the purposes of this Unshell Directive). Importantly, the proposal also provides that if one Member State has reason to believe that an undertaking that is tax resident in another Member State has not met its obligations under the Unshell Directive, the former Member State may request the other Member State to conduct a tax audit of that entity and communicate the outcome to the former Member State in a reasonable time frame. The penalties applicable for violation of the reporting obligations contained in the proposals are broadly left to the discretion of Member States. However, the proposals provide for a minimum administrative pecuniary sanction of at least 5% of the undertaking's turnover. Maples Group Commentary The Unshell Directive develops on a number of trends which are already seen in EU and international tax policy. The focus on 'substance' reflects OECD commentary on double tax treaty access, such as the principal purpose test (or PPT) and recent court cases on intermediate holding companies, including at the European Court of Justice. The increased reporting requirements reflect measures such as the EU DAC6 measures that focus on cross-border structures. There does appear to be a level of duplication and supplementation of existing provisions. Businesses and EU Member States are expected to raise a number of concerns on the current proposals and their operation, including the impact on double tax treaties, the very broad definition of relevant income and the increased administrative burden that will apply to both taxpayers and tax authorities. Many international businesses have, for some time now, been building their operational substance in jurisdictions in the EU through the creation of local investment management functions, boards and employees, and this will no doubt continue. The Maples Group's Tax team will continue to monitor the progress of the proposals, consider its potential impact and update our clients on any developments. We will also be consulting with tax authorities, industry groups and government departments in relation to the proposals. We shall also be discussing the recently released EU proposal on a global minimum rate of taxation for multinationals in a future update.

For present provisions, see AS 11.16.] Chapter 20. Bars to Actions. Sec. 12.20.010. Conviction or acquittal elsewhere as bar. [Repealed, § 40 ch 75 SLA 2008.] Sec. 12.20.020. When acquittal or dismissal is not a bar. If the defendant is acquitted on the ground of a variance between the charge and the proof, or the charge is dismissed upon an objection to its form or substance, or discharged for want of prosecution, without a judgment of acquittal or in bar of another prosecution, it is not an acquittal of the crime and does not bar a subsequent prosecution for the same crime. Sec. 12.20.030. When acquittal is a bar. When the defendant is acquitted on the merits, the defendant is acquitted of the same crime, notwithstanding any defect in form or substance in the charge, information, or complaint on which the trial was had. Sec. 12.20.040. When conviction or acquittal is a bar to other offenses. When the defendant is convicted or acquitted of a crime consisting of different degrees, the conviction or acquittal is a bar to another prosecution for the crime charged in the former or for any inferior degree of that crime, or for an attempt to commit that crime, or for an offense necessarily included in the crime of which the defendant might have been convicted under the information, indictment, or complaint. Sec. 12.20.050. Dismissal as bar. (a) It is a bar to another prosecution for the same crime if the crime is a misdemeanor, but it is not a bar if the crime charged is a felony when a person is (1) held to answer to the grand jury and the court dismisses the charge before the case is presented to the grand jury upon the motion of the prosecuting attorney; (2) held to answer to the grand jury and the court dismisses the charge because the indictment is not found against the person at the next session of the grand jury; or (3) indicted for a crime and the indictment is dismissed because the trial is not held within a reasonable period of time, there is not good cause shown for the delay, and the delay was not upon the application of the defendant or with the defendant's consent. (b) Unless the court directs a judgment of acquittal to be entered, it is not a bar to another action for the same crime if the court orders an indictment to be discharged because the prosecuting attorney is not prepared to go to trial when the indictment is called for trial and does not show sufficient cause for postponing the trial. Sec. 12.20.060. Discharge of codefendant as bar. It is an acquittal of the defendant discharged and a bar to another prosecution for the same crime when two or more persons are charged in the same indictment, and the court dismisses the indictment against a defendant (1) before that defendant has begun to present a defense and on the application of the prosecuting attorney so that the defendant may be a witness for the state; or (2) before the evidence is closed and on the application of another defendant on trial so that the discharged defendant may be a witness for a codefendant, and when, in the opinion of the court, there is not sufficient evidence to require the discharged defendant to present a defense. Chapter 25. Arrests and Citations. Article 1. Arrests. Sec. 12.25.010. Persons authorized to arrest. An arrest may be made by a peace officer or by a private person. Sec. 12.25.020.

Sec. 12.25.030. Grounds for arrest by private person or peace officer without warrant. (a) A private person or a peace officer without a warrant may arrest a person (1) for a crime committed or attempted in the presence of the person making the arrest; (2) when the person has committed a felony, although not in the presence of the person making the arrest; (3) when a felony has in fact been committed, and the person making the arrest has reasonable cause for believing the person to have committed it.

Sec. 12.25.033. Arrest without warrant for operating vehicle while under the influence of an alcoholic beverage, inhalant, or controlled substance. A peace officer may arrest a person without a warrant, whether or not the offense is committed in the presence of the officer, when the officer has probable cause to believe that the person to be arrested has committed the crime of operating a motor vehicle, an aircraft, or a watercraft in violation of AS 28.35.030 or a similar city or borough ordinance, if the violation is alleged to have occurred less than eight hours before the time of arrest. Sec. 12.25.035. Arrest without warrant by state trooper when judicial officer is unavailable. A state trooper may arrest a person without a warrant for a misdemeanor or for the violation of an ordinance when (1) the officer has reasonable grounds to believe that the person to be arrested has committed a misdemeanor or has violated an ordinance; (2) personal or property damage is likely to be done unless the person is immediately arrested; and (3) there is no known judicial officer empowered to issue a warrant within a radius of 25 miles of the person to be apprehended. Sec. 12.25.040. Taking before judge or magistrate person arrested by bystander. A peace officer may, without warrant, take before a judge or magistrate a person who, being engaged in a breach of the peace, is arrested by a bystander and delivered to the peace officer. Sec. 12.25.050. Method of making arrest. An arrest is made by the actual restraint of a person or by a person's submission to the custody of the person making the arrest. Sec. 12.25.060. Method of arrest by officer without warrant. When making an arrest without a warrant, the peace officer shall inform the person to be arrested of the officer's authority and the cause of the arrest, unless the person to be arrested is then engaged in the commission of a crime, or is pursued immediately after its commission or after an escape. Sec. 12.25.070. Limitation on restraint in arrest. A peace officer or private person may not subject a person arrested to greater restraint than is necessary and proper for the arrest and detention of the person. Sec. 12.25.080. Means to effect resisted arrest. [Repealed, § 21 ch 59 SLA 1982. For present provisions, see AS 11.81.370 — 11.81.390.] Sec. 12.25.090. Peace officer's authority to summon aid to make arrest. A peace officer making an arrest may orally summon as many persons as the officer considers necessary to aid in making the arrest. A person when required by an officer shall aid in making the arrest. Sec. 12.25.100. Breaking into building or vessel to effect arrest. A peace officer may break into a building or vessel in which the person to be arrested is or is believed to be, if the officer is refused admittance after the officer has announced the authority and purpose of the entry. Sec. 12.25.110. Breaking open building or vessel to liberate. A peace officer may break open a building or vessel to liberate a person who entered to make an arrest and is detained, or to liberate oneself when necessary. Sec. 12.25.120.

Sec. 12.25.150. Rights of prisoner after arrest. (a) A person arrested shall be taken before a judge or magistrate without unnecessary delay and in any event within 24 hours after arrest, absent compelling circumstances, including Sundays and holidays. The unavailability of a report prepared by the pretrial services officer under AS 33.07 or a delay in the transmittal of that report to the parties or to the court may not be considered a sufficient compelling circumstance to justify delaying a hearing beyond 24 hours. The hearing before the judge or magistrate may not take place more than 48 hours after arrest. This requirement applies to municipal police officers to the same extent as it does to state troopers. (b) Immediately after an arrest, a prisoner shall have the right to telephone or otherwise communicate with the prisoner's attorney and any relative or friend, and any attorney at law entitled to practice in the courts of Alaska shall, at the request of the prisoner or any relative or friend of the prisoner, have the right to immediately visit the person arrested. This subsection does not provide a prisoner with the right to initiate communication or attempt to initiate communication under circumstances proscribed under AS 11.56.755. (c) It shall be unlawful for an officer having custody of a person so arrested to wilfully refuse or neglect to grant the prisoner the rights provided by this section. A violation of this section is a misdemeanor, and, upon conviction, the offender is punishable by a fine of not more than $100, or by imprisonment for not more than 30 days, or by both. (d) In addition to the criminal liability in (c) of this section, an officer having a prisoner in custody who refuses to allow an attorney to visit the prisoner when proper application is made therefor shall forfeit and pay to the party aggrieved the sum of $500, recoverable in a court of competent jurisdiction.

(b) An order entered under AS 12.37.030 may not authorize the interception of private communications for a period of time exceeding 30 days or that period necessary to achieve the objective of the authorization, whichever is shorter. The authorized interception period begins on the day on which the peace officer first begins to conduct an interception under the order or 10 days after the order is entered, whichever is earlier. Extensions of 30 days or less may be granted if application for each extension order is made under AS 12.37.020 and the necessary findings are made by the court under AS 12.37.030.

(a) A communication intercepted under AS 12.37.010 — 12.37.130 shall, if practicable, be recorded by tape or wire or other comparable method. The recording shall, if practicable, be done in a way that will protect it from editing or other alteration.

If, while intercepting a private communication under the provisions of AS 12.37.010 — 12.37.130, a peace officer intercepts a communication that relates to a felony offense other than one specified in the order of authorization, the attorney general, or a person designated in writing or by law to act for the attorney general, may file a motion for an order approving that interception so that the communication, or evidence derived from it, may be used during testimony in an official proceeding. A court may enter an order approving the interception if it finds that the person who intercepted the communication was otherwise acting under the provisions of AS 12.37.010 — 12.37.130. Sec. 12.37.110. Use of intercepted communication. An intercepted private communication, and evidence derived from it, may not be received in evidence or otherwise disclosed in an official proceeding unless each party to the communication who is a party in the official proceeding was furnished, at least 10 days before the proceeding, with a copy of the court order authorizing the interception and of the application for authorization under which the order was issued. The 10-day period may be waived by the presiding official if the presiding official finds that it was not practicable to furnish the person with the information 10 days before the proceeding and also finds that the person will not be prejudiced by the delay in receiving the information. Sec. 12.37.120. Suppression of unlawful interceptions. (a) A motion to suppress the contents of an intercepted private communication, or evidence derived from it, may be filed in a proceeding on the ground that the (1) interception was unlawful; (2) order of authorization under which the communication was intercepted is insufficient on its face; or (3) interception was not made in substantial compliance with the order of authorization. (b) Upon the filing of a motion to suppress under this section, the court may make available to the moving party or that party's attorney, for inspection, the portion or portions of the intercepted communication, applications, and orders that the court determines to be in the interest of justice.

If the court finds that evidence offered by the defendant regarding the sexual conduct of the complaining witness is relevant, and that the probative value of the evidence offered is not outweighed by the probability that its admission will create undue prejudice, confusion of the issues, or unwarranted invasion of the privacy of the complaining witness, the court shall make an order stating what evidence may be introduced and the nature of the questions that may be permitted. The defendant may then offer evidence under the order of the court. (b) In the absence of a persuasive showing to the contrary, evidence of the complaining witness' sexual conduct occurring more than one year before the date of the offense charged is presumed to be inadmissible under this section. (c) In this section "complaining witness" means the alleged victim of the crime charged, the prosecution of which is subject to this section. Sec. 12.45.046. Testimony of children in criminal proceedings. (a) In a criminal proceeding under AS 11.41 involving the prosecution of an offense committed against a child under the age of 16, or witnessed by a child under the age of 16, the court (1) may appoint a guardian ad litem for the child; (2) on its own motion or on the motion of the party presenting the witness or the guardian ad litem of the child, may order that the testimony of the child be taken by closed circuit television or through one-way mirrors if the court determines that the testimony by the child victim or witness under normal court procedures would result in the child's inability to effectively communicate. (b) In making a determination under (a)(2) of this section, the court shall consider factors it considers relevant, including (1) the child's chronological age; (2) the child's level of development; (3) the child's general physical health; (4) any physical, emotional, or psychological injury experienced by the child; and (5) the mental or emotional strain that will be caused by requiring the child to testify under normal courtroom procedures. (c) If the court determines under (a)(2) of this section that the testimony by the child victim or witness under normal court procedures would result in the child's inability to effectively communicate, the court may order that the testimony of the child be taken in a room other than the courtroom and be televised by closed circuit equipment in the courtroom to be viewed by the defendant, the court, and the finder of fact in the proceeding. If the court authorizes use of closed circuit televised testimony under this subsection, (1) each of the following may be in the room with the child when the child testifies: (A) the prosecuting attorney; (B) the attorney for the defendant; and (C) operators of the closed circuit television equipment; (2) the court may, in addition to persons specified in (1) of this subsection, admit a person whose presence, in the opinion of the court, contributes to the well-being of the child. (d) When a child is to testify under (c) of this section, only the court and counsel may question the child. The persons operating the equipment shall do so in as unobtrusive a manner as possible. If the defendant requests, the court shall excuse the defendant from the courtroom, shall permit the defendant to attend in another location, and shall afford the defendant a means of viewing the child's testimony and of communicating with the defendant's attorney throughout the proceedings. Upon request of the defendant or the defendant's attorney, the court shall permit a recess to allow them to confer. The court shall provide a means of communicating with the attorneys during the questioning of the child. Objections made by the attorneys to questions of a child witness may be resolved in the courtroom if the court finds it necessary. (e) If the court determines under (a)(2) of this section that the testimony by the child victim or witness under normal court procedures would result in the child's inability to effectively communicate, the court may authorize the use of one-way mirrors in conjunction with the taking of the child's testimony. The attorneys may pose questions to the child and have visual contact with the child during questioning, but the mirrors shall be placed to provide a physical shield so that the child does not have visual contact with the defendant and jurors. (f) If the court does not find under (a)(2) of this section that the testimony by the child victim or witness under normal court procedures will result in the child's inability to effectively communicate, the court may, after taking into consideration the factors specified in (b) of this section, supervise the spatial arrangements of the courtroom and the location, movement, and deportment of all persons in attendance so as to safeguard the child from emotional harm or stress. In addition to other procedures it finds appropriate, the court may (1) allow the child to testify while sitting on the floor or on an appropriately sized chair; (2) schedule the procedure in a room that provides adequate privacy, freedom from distractions, informality, and comfort appropriate to the child's developmental age; and (3) order a recess when the energy, comfort, or attention span of the child warrants. Secs. 12.45.047 , 12.45.048. Testimony by young victim of sexual offense. [Repealed, § 4 ch 92 SLA 1988.] Sec. 12.45.049. Privilege relating to domestic violence and sexual assault counseling. Confidential communications between a victim of domestic violence or sexual assault and a victim counselor are privileged under AS 18.66.200 — 18.66.250. Sec. 12.45.050. Limitation on discovery of statement of prosecution witness. In a criminal prosecution, no statement or report in the possession of the state which was made by a prosecution witness or prospective prosecution witness (other than the defendant) to an agent of the state may be the subject of subpoena, discovery, or inspection until the witness has testified on direct examination at the preliminary hearing, or in the trial of the case. Sec. 12.45.060. Discovery after direct examination of witness. After a witness called by the state has testified on direct examination, the court shall, on motion of the defendant, order the state to produce any statement of the witness in the possession of the state that relates to the subject matter as to which the witness has testified. If the entire contents of the statement relate to the subject matter of the testimony of the witness, the court shall order it to be delivered directly to the defendant for examination and use. Sec. 12.45.070. Discovery of portions of statement. If the state claims that any statement ordered to be produced under AS 12.45.060 contains matter that does not relate to the subject matter of the testimony of the witness, the court shall order the state to deliver the statement for the inspection of the court in chambers. Upon delivery the court shall excise the portions of the statement that do not relate to the subject matter of the testimony of the witness. With the material excised, the court shall then direct delivery of the statement to the defendant for the use of the defendant. If, pursuant to this procedure, any portion of the statement is withheld from the defendant and the defendant objects to the withholding, and the trial is continued to an adjudication of the guilt of the defendant, the entire text of the statement shall be preserved by the state and, in the event the defendant appeals, shall be made available to the appellate court for the purpose of determining the correctness of the ruling of the trial judge. When a statement is delivered to a defendant, the court may recess the trial for the defendant's examination of the statement and preparation for its use in the trial. Sec. 12.45.080. Disposition of proceeding upon failure of state to comply with order. If the state elects not to comply with an order of the court to deliver to the defendant a statement or a portion of a statement as the court may direct, the court shall strike from the record the testimony of the witness, and the preliminary hearing or trial shall proceed unless the court in its discretion determines that the interests of justice require that the preliminary hearing be terminated immediately or a mistrial be declared. Sec. 12.45.082. Definition of "statement". In AS 12.45.060 — 12.45.080, the term "statement," in relation to any witness called by the state, means (1) a written statement made by the witness and signed or otherwise adopted or approved by the witness; or (2) a stenographic, mechanical, electrical, or other recording, or a transcription of the statement that is a substantially verbatim recital of an oral statement made by the witness to an agent of the state and recorded contemporaneously with the making of the oral statement. Sec. 12.45.083. Mental disease or defect excluding responsibility. [Repealed, § 42 ch 143 SLA 1982. For present provisions, see AS 12.47.] Sec. 12.45.084. Laboratory report of controlled substances. (a) In a prosecution under AS 11.71.010 — 11.71.060, a complete copy of an official laboratory report from the Department of Public Safety or a laboratory operated by another law enforcement agency is prima facie evidence of the content, identity, and weight of a controlled substance. The report must be signed by the person performing the analysis and must state that the substance which is the basis of the alleged offense has been weighed and analyzed. In the report, the author shall state with specificity findings as to the content, weight, and identity of the substance. (b) A sworn statement prepared by the author of the report provided for in (a) of this section must be attached to the report. The statement must set out the identity of the author and include a statement that the author is an employee of the laboratory issuing the report and that performing the analysis is a part of the author's regular duties. The statement must also include an outline of the author's education, training, and experience for performing an analysis. The author shall state that scientifically accepted tests were performed with due caution, and whether to the author's knowledge the evidence was handled in accordance with established and accepted procedures while in the custody of the laboratory. (c) The prosecuting attorney shall serve a copy of the report on the attorney of record for the accused, or on the defendant if the defendant has no attorney, not later than 20 days before a proceeding in which the report is to be used against the accused. However, at a preliminary hearing or grand jury proceeding, the report may be used without having previously been served upon the accused. (d) The accused or the accused's attorney may demand the testimony of the person signing the report, by serving a written demand showing cause upon the prosecuting attorney within seven days from receipt of the report. (e) A report issued for use under this section must contain notice of the right of the accused to demand the testimony of the person signing the report. Sec. 12.45.085. Evidence of mental disease or defect. [Repealed, § 42 ch 143 SLA 1982. For present provisions, see AS 12.47.] Sec. 12.45.086. Photographic evidence of property wrongfully taken or damaged. (a) In a criminal proceeding or a children's court proceeding involving the wrongful taking or damaging of property, photographs of the property are competent evidence of the property and are admissible in the proceeding to the same extent as if the property had been introduced as evidence. (b) Photographs of property that are to be introduced as evidence under this section shall be accompanied by a written description of the property, the name of the owner of the property, the location where the alleged crime occurred, the name of the investigating peace officer, the date the photograph was taken, and the name and signature of the photographer. The written description shall be signed by the investigating peace officer under penalty of perjury under AS 09.63.020. (c) In a prosecution for a violation of AS 11.46.120 — 11.46.150 in which the property is commercial fishing gear as defined in AS 16.43.990, the gear shall be returned to the owner as soon as possible. The prosecutor may obtain photographs of the gear for use as evidence in accordance with (a) and (b) of this section. Secs. 12.45.087 — 12.45.115. Psychiatric examination; procedure. [Repealed, § 42 ch 143 SLA 1982. For present provisions, see AS 12.47.] Article 3. Compromise and Satisfaction. Sec. 12.45.120. Authority to compromise misdemeanors for which victim has civil action. If a defendant is held to answer on a charge of misdemeanor for which the person injured by the act constituting the crime has a remedy by a civil action, the crime may be compromised except when it was committed (1) by or upon a peace officer, judge, or magistrate while in the execution of the duties of that office; (2) riotously; (3) with an intent to commit a felony; (4) larcenously; (5) against (A) a spouse or a former spouse of the defendant; (B) a parent, grandparent, child, or grandchild of the defendant; (C) a member of the social unit comprised of those living together in the same dwelling as the defendant; or (D) a person who is not a spouse or former spouse of the defendant but who previously lived in a spousal relationship with the defendant. Sec. 12.45.130. Acknowledgment of satisfaction by injured party. If the party injured appears before the court in which the defendant is bound to appear, at any time before trial, and acknowledges in writing that satisfaction has been received for the injury, the court may, on payment of the costs incurred, order the prosecution dismissed and the defendant discharged. The order is a bar to another prosecution for the same crime. Sec. 12.45.140. Compromise or stay upon compromise by other means prohibited. A crime may not be compromised or the prosecution or punishment upon a compromise dismissed or stayed except as provided by law. Sec. 12.45.150. Order for private prosecutor to pay costs for malicious prosecution without probable cause. [Repealed, § 1 ch 19 SLA 1987.] Renumbered as AS 12.45.084. Chapter 47. Insanity and Competency to Stand Trial. Sec. 12.47.010. Insanity as affirmative defense. (a) In a prosecution for a crime, it is an affirmative defense that when the defendant engaged in the criminal conduct, the defendant was unable, as a result of a mental disease or defect, to appreciate the nature and quality of that conduct. (b) The affirmative defense defined in (a) of this section may not be raised at trial unless the defendant, within 10 days of entering a plea or such later time as the court may for good cause permit, files a written notice of intent to rely on the defense. (c) Evidence of a mental disease or defect that is manifested only by repeated criminal or other antisocial conduct is not sufficient to establish the affirmative defense under (a) of this section. (d) The affirmative defense specified in (a) of this section is the affirmative defense of insanity. A defendant who successfully raises the affirmative defense of insanity shall be found not guilty by reason of insanity and the verdict shall so state. Sec. 12.47.020. Mental disease or defect negating culpable mental state. (a) Evidence that the defendant suffered from a mental disease or defect is admissible whenever it is relevant to prove that the defendant did or did not have a culpable mental state which is an element of the crime. However, evidence of mental disease or defect that tends to negate a culpable mental state is not admissible unless the defendant, within 10 days of entering a plea, or at such later time as the court may for good cause permit, files a written notice of intent to rely on that defense. (b) When the trier of fact finds that all other elements of the crime have been proved but, as a result of mental disease or defect, there is a reasonable doubt as to the existence of a culpable mental state that is an element of the crime, it shall enter a verdict of not guilty by reason of insanity. A defendant acquitted under this subsection, and not found guilty of a lesser included offense, shall automatically be considered to have established the affirmative defense of insanity under AS 12.47.010. The defendant is then subject to the provisions of AS 12.47.090. (c) If a verdict of not guilty by reason of insanity is reached under (b) of this section, the trier of fact shall also consider whether the defendant is guilty of any lesser included offense. If the defendant is convicted of a lesser included offense, the defendant shall be sentenced for that offense and shall automatically be considered guilty but mentally ill under AS 12.47.030 and 12.47.050. Upon completion of a sentence for a lesser included offense, a hearing shall be held under AS 12.47.090(c) to determine the necessity of further commitment of the defendant, based on the acquittal for the greater charge under (b) of this section. If the defendant is committed under AS 12.47.090(c), the defendant is subject to the provisions of AS 12.47.090(d) — (i) and (k). Sec. 12.47.030. Guilty but mentally ill. (a) A defendant is guilty but mentally ill if, when the defendant engaged in the criminal conduct, the defendant lacked, as a result of a mental disease or defect, the substantial capacity either to appreciate the wrongfulness of that conduct or to conform that conduct to the requirements of law. A defendant found guilty but mentally ill is not relieved of criminal responsibility for criminal conduct and is subject to the provisions of AS 12.47.050. (b) Evidence of a mental disease or defect that is manifested only by repeated criminal or antisocial conduct is not sufficient to establish that the defendant was guilty but mentally ill under (a) of this section. Sec. 12.47.040. Form of verdict in certain cases involving insanity or mental disease or defect. (a) In a prosecution for a crime when the affirmative defense of insanity is raised under AS 12.47.010, or when evidence of a mental disease or defect of the defendant is otherwise admissible at trial under AS 12.47.020, the trier of fact shall find, and the verdict shall state, whether the defendant is (1) guilty; (2) not guilty; (3) not guilty by reason of insanity; or (4) guilty but mentally ill. (b) To return a verdict under (a)(4) of this section, the fact finder must find beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant committed the crime and that, when the defendant committed the crime, the defendant was guilty but mentally ill as defined in AS 12.47.030. (c) When the jury is instructed as to the verdicts under (a) of this section, it shall also be instructed on the dispositions available under AS 12.47.050 and 12.47.090. Sec. 12.47.050. Disposition of defendant found guilty but mentally ill. (a) If the trier of fact finds that a defendant is guilty but mentally ill, the court shall sentence the defendant as provided by law and shall enter the verdict of guilty but mentally ill as part of the judgment. (b) The Department of Corrections shall provide mental health treatment to a defendant found guilty but mentally ill. The treatment must continue until the defendant no longer suffers from a mental disease or defect that causes the defendant to be dangerous to the public peace or safety. Subject to (c) and (d) of this section, the Department of Corrections shall determine the course of treatment. (c) When treatment terminates under (b) of this section, the defendant shall be required to serve the remainder of the sentence imposed. (d) Notwithstanding any contrary provision of law, a defendant receiving treatment under (b) of this section may not be released (1) on furlough under AS 33.30.101 — 33.30.131, except for treatment in a secure setting; or (2) on parole. (e) Not less than 30 days before the expiration of the sentence of a defendant found guilty but mentally ill, the commissioner of corrections shall file a petition under AS 47.30.700 for a screening investigation to determine the need for further treatment of the defendant if (1) the defendant is still receiving treatment under (b) of this section; and (2) the commissioner has good cause to believe that the defendant is suffering from a mental illness that causes the defendant to be dangerous to the public peace or safety; in this paragraph, "mental illness" has the meaning given in AS 47.30.915. Sec. 12.47.055. Treatment for other defendants not limited. Nothing in AS 12.47.050 limits the discretion of the court to recommend, or of the Department of Corrections to provide, psychiatrically indicated treatment for a defendant who is not adjudged guilty but mentally ill. Sec. 12.47.060. Post conviction determination of mental illness. (a) In a prosecution for a crime when the affirmative defense of insanity is not raised and when evidence of mental disease or defect of the defendant is not admitted at trial under AS 12.47.020, the defendant or the prosecuting attorney may raise the issue of whether the defendant is guilty but mentally ill. A party that seeks a post-conviction determination of guilty but mentally ill must give notice 10 days before trial of intent to do so; however, this deadline is waived if the opposing party presents evidence or argument at trial tending to show that the defendant may be guilty but mentally ill. A hearing must be held on this issue before the same fact finder that returned the verdict of guilty under procedures set by the court. In cases decided by a jury, at the request of the defendant and with the concurrence of the prosecuting attorney, the court may decide the issue. A waiver of consideration by a jury must be in writing and in person before the court. At the hearing, the fact finder shall determine whether the defendant has been shown to be guilty but mentally ill beyond a reasonable doubt, considering evidence presented at the hearing and any evidence relevant to the issue that was presented at trial. (b) If the fact finder finds that a defendant is guilty but mentally ill, the court shall sentence the defendant as provided by law and shall enter the finding of guilty but mentally ill as part of the judgment. (c) A defendant determined to be guilty but mentally ill under this section is subject to the provisions of AS 12.47.050. (d) In this section, "guilty but mentally ill" has the meaning given in AS 12.47.030. Sec. 12.47.070. Psychiatric examination. (a) If a defendant has filed a notice of intention to rely on the affirmative defense of insanity under AS 12.47.010 or has filed notice under AS 12.47.020(a), or there is reason to doubt the defendant's fitness to proceed, or there is reason to believe that a mental disease or defect of the defendant will otherwise become an issue in the case, the court shall appoint at least two qualified psychiatrists or two forensic psychologists certified by the American Board of Forensic Psychology to examine and report upon the mental condition of the defendant. If the court appoints psychiatrists, the psychiatrists may select psychologists to provide assistance. If the defendant has filed notice under AS 12.47.090(a), the report shall consider whether the defendant can still be committed under AS 12.47.090(c). The court may order the defendant to be committed to a secure facility for the purpose of the examination for not more than 60 days or such longer period as the court determines to be necessary for the purpose and may direct that a qualified psychiatrist retained by the defendant be permitted to witness and participate in the examination. (b) In an examination under (a) of this section, any method may be employed which is accepted by the medical profession for the examination of those alleged to be suffering from mental disease or defect. (c) The report of an examination under (a) of this section shall include the following: (1) a description of the nature of the examination; (2) a diagnosis of the mental condition of the defendant; (3) if the defendant suffers from a mental disease or defect, an opinion as to the defendant's capacity to understand the proceedings against the defendant and to assist in the defendant's defense; (4) if a notice of intention to rely on the affirmative defense of insanity under AS 12.47.010(b) has been filed, an opinion as to the extent, if any, to which the capacity of the defendant to appreciate the nature and quality of the defendant's conduct was impaired at the time of the crime charged; and (5) if notice has been filed under AS 12.47.020(a), an opinion as to the capacity of the defendant to have a culpable mental state which is an element of the crime charged. (d) If the examination under (a) of this section cannot be conducted by reason of the unwillingness of the defendant to participate in it, the report shall so state and shall include, if possible, an opinion as to whether the unwillingness of the defendant was the result of mental disease or defect. (e) The report of the examination under (a) of this section shall be filed with the clerk of the court, who shall cause copies to be delivered to the prosecuting attorney and to counsel for the defendant. Sec. 12.47.080. Procedure upon verdict of not guilty. (a) If a defendant is found not guilty under AS 12.47.040(a)(2), the prosecuting attorney shall, within 24 hours, file a petition under AS 47.30.700 for a screening investigation to determine the need for treatment if the prosecuting attorney has good cause to believe that the defendant is suffering from a mental illness and as a result is gravely disabled or likely to cause serious harm to self or others. (b) In this section, "mental illness" has the meaning given in AS 47.30.915. Sec. 12.47.090. Procedure after raising defense of insanity. (a) At the time the defendant files notice to raise the affirmative defense of insanity under AS 12.47.010 or files notice under AS 12.47.020(a), the defendant shall also file notice as to whether, if found not guilty by reason of insanity under AS 12.47.010 or 12.47.020(b), the defendant will assert that the defendant is not presently suffering from any mental illness that causes the defendant to be dangerous to the public peace or safety. (b) If the defendant is found not guilty by reason of insanity under AS 12.47.010 or 12.47.020(b), and has not filed the notice required under (a) of this section, the court shall immediately commit the defendant to the custody of the commissioner of health and social services. (c) If the defendant is found not guilty by reason of insanity under AS 12.47.010 or 12.47.020(b), and has filed the notice required under (a) of this section, a hearing shall be held immediately after a verdict of not guilty by reason of insanity to determine the necessity of commitment. The hearing shall be held before the same trier of fact as heard the underlying charge. At the hearing, the defendant has the burden of proving by clear and convincing evidence that the defendant is not presently suffering from any mental illness that causes the defendant to be dangerous to the public. If the court or jury determines that the defendant has failed to meet the burden of proof, the court shall order the defendant committed to the custody of the commissioner of health and social services. If the hearing is before a jury, the verdict must be unanimous. (d) A defendant committed under (b) or (c) of this section shall be held in custody for a period of time not to exceed the maximum term of imprisonment for the crime for which the defendant was acquitted under AS 12.47.010 or 12.47.020(b) or until the mental illness is cured or corrected as determined at a hearing under (e) of this section. (e) A defendant committed under (b) or (c) of this section may have the need for continuing commitment under this section reviewed by the court sitting without a jury under a petition filed in the superior court at intervals beginning no sooner than a year from the defendant's initial commitment, and yearly thereafter. The burden and standard of proof at a hearing under this subsection are the same as at a hearing under (c) of this section. A copy of all petitions for release shall be served on the attorney general at Juneau, Alaska. A copy shall also be served upon the attorney of record, if the attorney of record is not the attorney general, who represented the state or a municipality at the time the defendant was first committed. (f) Continued commitment following expiration of the maximum term of imprisonment for the crime for which the defendant was acquitted under AS 12.47.010 or 12.47.020(b) is governed by the standards pertaining to civil commitments as set out in AS 47.30.735. (g) A person committed under this section may not be released during the term of commitment except upon court order following a hearing in accordance with (e) of this section. On the grounds that the defendant has been cured of any mental illness that would cause the defendant to be dangerous to the public peace or safety, the state may at any time request the court to hold a hearing to decide if the defendant should be released. (h) The commissioner of health and social services or the commissioner's authorized representative shall submit periodic written reports to the court on the mental condition of a person committed under this section. (i) An order entered under (c) or (e) of this section may be reviewed by the court of appeals on appeal brought by either the defendant or the state within 40 days from the entry of the order. (j) If the court finds that a defendant committed under (b) or (c) of this section can be adequately controlled and treated in the community with proper supervision, the court may order the defendant conditionally released from confinement under AS 12.47.092 for a period of time not to exceed the maximum term of imprisonment for the crime for which the defendant was acquitted under AS 12.47.010 or 12.47.020(b) or until the mental illness is cured or corrected, whichever first occurs, as determined at a hearing under (c) of this section. (1) "dangerous" means a determination involving both the magnitude of the risk that the defendant will commit an act threatening the public peace or safety, as well as the magnitude of the harm that could be expected to result from this conduct; a finding that a defendant is "dangerous" may result from a great risk of relatively slight harm to persons or property, or may result from a relatively slight risk of substantial harm to persons or property; (2) "mental illness" means any mental condition that increases the propensity of the defendant to be dangerous to the public peace or safety; however, it is not required that the mental illness be sufficient to exclude criminal responsibility under AS 12.47.010, or that the mental illness presently suffered by the defendant be the same one the defendant suffered at the time of the criminal conduct. Sec. 12.47.092. Procedure for conditional release. (a) A defendant committed to the custody of the commissioner of health and social services under AS 12.47.090(b) or (c) may be conditionally released from confinement subject to the conditions and requirements for treatment that the court may impose, and placed under the supervision of the Department of Health and Social Services, a local government agency, a private agency, or an adult, who agrees to assume supervision of the defendant. (b) The commissioner of health and social services or the commissioner's authorized representative shall submit, at a minimum, quarterly written reports to the court describing the defendant's progress in treatment, compliance with conditions of release, and other information required by the court for defendants conditionally released under this section. (c) A person or agency responsible for supervision or treatment under an order for conditional release shall immediately notify the commissioner of health and social services upon the defendant's failure to appear for required medication or treatment, or for failure to comply with other conditions imposed by the court. (d) If the court, after petition or on its own motion, reasonably believes that a conditionally released defendant is failing to adhere to the terms and conditions of the conditional release, the court may order that the conditionally released defendant be apprehended and held until a hearing can be scheduled with the court to determine the facts and whether or not the defendant's conditional release should be revoked or modified. Nothing in this subsection is intended to limit procedures available for emergency situations, including emergency detention under AS 47.30.705. (e) The commissioner of health and social services or the conditionally released defendant may petition the court for modification of an order of conditional release. A petition by the defendant for modification of conditional release may not be filed more often than once every six months. (f) A defendant conditionally released under AS 12.47.090(j) may petition the court for discharge in accordance with AS 12.47.090(e). Sec. 12.47.095. Notice to victims. (a) If an offender has been committed to the custody of the commissioner of health and social services under AS 12.47.090, the victim of that crime is entitled to notice of a pending or actual change in the status of the offender. The commissioner of health and social services shall give notice as required by this section if (1) the offender has been continued in commitment following expiration of the maximum term of imprisonment under AS 12.47.090(f) and the commissioner gives notice of release of the offender; (2) the court is to consider modification of an order of conditional release for the offender under AS 12.47.092(e); (3) a court is to consider conditional release of the offender under AS 12.47.090(j) and 12.47.092(a); (4) the offender petitions for discharge under AS 12.47.092(f); or (5) the offender escapes, is released from custody on conditional release, furlough or authorized absence, or is discharged or released from custody for any reason. (b) If a victim desires notice under this section, the victim shall maintain a current, valid mailing address on file with the commissioner of health and social services. The commissioner shall send the notice required by this section to the victim's last known address. The victim's address may not be disclosed to the offender or offender's attorney. (c) The commissioner of health and social services is required to give notice of a change in the status of an offender under this section to any victim who has requested notice. (d) If more than one person who qualifies as a victim under AS 12.55.185 desires notice, the commissioner of health and social services shall designate one person for purposes of receiving any notice required and exercising the rights granted by this section. (e) A victim who has received notice under (a) of this section that a change in the status of the offender is pending before a court has the right to submit to the court a written statement, or to appear personally at a hearing to present a written statement, and to give sworn testimony or an unsworn oral presentation to the court. (1) "offender" has the meaning given in AS 12.61.020; (2) "victim" has the meaning given in AS 12.55.185. Sec. 12.47.100. Incompetency to proceed. (a) A defendant who, as a result of mental disease or defect, is incompetent because the defendant is unable to understand the proceedings against the defendant or to assist in the defendant's own defense may not be tried, convicted, or sentenced for the commission of a crime so long as the incompetency exists. (b) If, before imposition of sentence, the prosecuting attorney or the attorney for the defendant has reasonable cause to believe that the defendant is presently suffering from a mental disease or defect that causes the defendant to be unable to understand the proceedings or to assist in the person's own defense, the attorney may file a motion for a judicial determination of the competency of the defendant. Upon that motion, or upon its own motion, the court shall have the defendant examined by at least one qualified psychiatrist or psychologist, who shall report to the court concerning the competency of the defendant. For the purpose of the examination, the court may order the defendant committed for a reasonable period to a suitable hospital or other facility designated by the court. If the report of the psychiatrist or psychologist indicates that the defendant is incompetent, the court shall hold a hearing, upon due notice, at which evidence as to the competency of the defendant may be submitted, including that of the reporting psychiatrist or psychologist, and make appropriate findings. Before the hearing, the court shall, upon request of the prosecuting attorney, order the defendant to submit to an additional evaluation by a psychiatrist or psychologist designated by the prosecuting attorney. (c) A defendant is presumed to be competent. The party raising the issue of competency bears the burden of proving the defendant is incompetent by a preponderance of the evidence. When the court raises the issue of competency, the burden of proving the defendant is incompetent shall be on the party who elects to advocate for a finding of incompetency. The court shall then apply the preponderance of the evidence standard to determine whether the defendant is competent. (d) A statement made by the defendant in the course of an examination into the person's competency under this section, whether the examination is with or without the consent of the defendant, may not be admitted in evidence against the defendant on the issue of guilt in a criminal proceeding unless the defendant later relies on a defense under AS 12.47.010 or 12.47.020. A finding by the judge that the defendant is competent to stand trial in no way prejudices the defendant in a defense based on insanity; the finding may not be introduced in evidence on that issue or otherwise be brought to the notice of the jury. (e) In determining whether a person has sufficient intellectual functioning to adapt or cope with the ordinary demands of life, the court shall consider whether the person has obtained a driver's license, is able to maintain employment, or is competent to testify as a witness under the Alaska Rules of Evidence. (f) In determining if the defendant is unable to understand the proceedings against the defendant, the court shall consider, among other factors considered relevant by the court, whether the defendant understands that the defendant has been charged with a criminal offense and that penalties can be imposed; whether the defendant understands what criminal conduct is being alleged; whether the defendant understands the roles of the judge, jury, prosecutor, and defense counsel; whether the defendant understands that the defendant will be expected to tell defense counsel the circumstances, to the best of the defendant's ability, surrounding the defendant's activities at the time of the alleged criminal conduct; and whether the defendant can distinguish between a guilty and not guilty plea. (g) In determining if the defendant is unable to assist in the defendant's own defense, the court shall consider, among other factors considered relevant by the court, whether the defendant's mental disease or defect affects the defendant's ability to recall and relate facts pertaining to the defendant's actions at times relevant to the charges and whether the defendant can respond coherently to counsel's questions. A defendant is able to assist in the defense even though the defendant's memory may be impaired, the defendant refuses to accept a course of action that counsel or the court believes is in the defendant's best interest, or the defendant is unable to suggest a particular strategy or to choose among alternative defenses. (h) In a hearing to determine competency under this section, the court may, at the court's discretion, allow a witness, including a psychiatrist or psychologist who examined the defendant, to testify concerning the competency of the defendant by contemporaneous two-way video conference if the witness is in a place from which people customarily travel by air to the court, and the procedure allows the parties a fair opportunity to examine the witness. The video conference technician shall be the only person in the presence of the witness unless the court, at the court's discretion, determines that another person may be present. Any person present with the witness must be identified on the record. In this subsection, "contemporaneous two-way video conference" (1) means a conference among people at different places by means of transmitted audio and video signals; (2) includes all communication technologies that allow people at two or more places to interact by two-way video and audio transmissions simultaneously. Sec. 12.47.110. Commitment on finding of incompetency. (a) When the trial court determines by a preponderance of the evidence, in accordance with AS 12.47.100, that a defendant is so incompetent that the defendant is unable to understand the proceedings against the defendant or to assist in the defendant's own defense, the court shall order the proceedings stayed, except as provided in (d) of this section, and shall commit a defendant charged with a felony, and may commit a defendant charged with any other crime, to the custody of the commissioner of health and social services or the commissioner's authorized representative for further evaluation and treatment until the defendant is mentally competent to stand trial, or until the pending charges against the defendant are disposed of according to law, but in no event longer than 90 days. (b) On or before the expiration of the initial 90-day period of commitment, the court shall conduct a hearing to determine whether or not the defendant remains incompetent. If the court finds by a preponderance of the evidence that the defendant remains incompetent, the court may recommit the defendant for a second period of 90 days. The court shall determine at the expiration of the second 90-day period whether the defendant has become competent. If, at the expiration of the second 90-day period, the court determines that the defendant continues to be incompetent to stand trial, the charges against the defendant shall be dismissed without prejudice, and continued commitment of the defendant shall be governed by the provisions relating to civil commitments under AS 47.30.700 — 47.30.915 unless the defendant is charged with a crime involving force against a person and the court finds that the defendant presents a substantial danger of physical injury to other persons and that there is a substantial probability that the defendant will regain competency within a reasonable period of time, in which case the court may extend the period of commitment for an additional six months. If the defendant remains incompetent at the expiration of the additional six-month period, the charges shall be dismissed without prejudice, and continued commitment proceedings shall be governed by the provisions relating to civil commitment under AS 47.30.700 — 47.30.915. If the defendant remains incompetent for five years after the charges have been dismissed under this subsection, the defendant may not be charged again for an offense arising out of the facts alleged in the original charges, except if the original charge is a class A felony or unclassified felony. (c) The defendant is not responsible for the expenses of hospitalization or transportation incurred as a result of the defendant's commitment under this section. Liability for payment under AS 47.30.910 does not apply to commitments under this section. (d) A defendant receiving medication for either a physical or a mental condition may not be prohibited from standing trial, if the medication either enables the defendant to understand the proceedings and to properly assist in the defendant's defense or does not disable the defendant from understanding the proceedings and assisting in the defendant's own defense. (e) A defendant charged with a felony and found to be incompetent to proceed under this section is rebuttably presumed to be mentally ill and to present a likelihood of serious harm to self or others in proceedings under AS 47.30.700 — 47.30.915. In evaluating whether a defendant is likely to cause serious harm, the court may consider as recent behavior the conduct with which the defendant was originally charged. Sec. 12.47.120. Determination of sanity after commitment. (a) When, in the medical judgment of the custodian of an accused person committed under AS 12.47.110, the accused is considered to be mentally competent to stand trial, the committing court shall hold a hearing, after due notice, as soon as conveniently possible. At the hearing, evidence as to the mental condition of the accused may be submitted including reports by the custodian to whom the accused was committed for care. (b) If at the hearing the court determines that the accused is presently mentally competent to understand the nature of the proceedings against the accused and to assist in the accused's own defense, appropriate criminal proceedings may be commenced against the accused. (c) If at the hearing the court determines that the accused is still presently mentally incompetent, the court shall recommit the accused in accordance with AS 12.47.110. (d) A finding by the court that the accused is mentally competent to stand trial in no way prejudices the accused in a defense based on mental disease or defect excluding responsibility. This finding may not be introduced in evidence on that issue or otherwise brought to the notice of the jury. (1) "affirmative defense" has the meaning given in AS 11.81.900(b); (2) "assist in the defendant's own defense" means to consult with a lawyer while exercising a reasonable degree of rational functioning; (3) "culpable mental state" has the meaning given in AS 11.81.900(b); (4) "incompetent" means a defendant is unable to understand the proceedings against the defendant or to assist in the defendant's own defense; (5) "mental disease or defect" means a disorder of thought or mood that substantially impairs judgment, behavior, capacity to recognize reality, or ability to cope with the ordinary demands of life; "mental disease or defect" also includes intellectual and developmental disabilities that result in significantly below average general intellectual functioning that impairs a person's ability to adapt to or cope with the ordinary demands of life; (6) "understand the proceedings against the defendant" means that the defendant's elementary mental process is such that the defendant has a reasonably rational comprehension of the proceedings. Article 1. Uniform Act to Secure Attendance in Criminal Proceedings. Chapter 50. Witnesses. Sec. 12.50.010. Witness subpoenaed in this state to testify in another state. (a) If a judge of a court of record in any state which by its laws has made provision for commanding persons within the state to attend and testify in this state certifies under the seal of the court that there is a criminal prosecution pending in the court, or that a grand jury investigation has commenced or is about to commence, that a person within this state is a material witness in that prosecution or grand jury investigation, and that the presence of that person will be required for a specified number of days, then, upon presentation of the certificate to a judge of a court of record in the judicial district in which the person is, the judge shall fix a time and place for a hearing and shall make an order directing the witness to appear at a time and place certain for the hearing. (b) If at a hearing the judge determines that the witness is material and necessary, that it will not cause undue hardship to the witness to be compelled to attend and testify in the prosecution or grand jury investigation in the other state, and that the laws of the state in which the prosecution is pending or grand jury investigation has commenced or is about to commence will give to the witness protection from arrest and the service of civil and criminal process, the judge shall issue a subpoena, with a copy of the certificate attached, directing the witness to attend and testify in the court where the prosecution is pending or where a grand jury investigation has commenced or is about to commence at a time and place specified in the subpoena. In any such hearing the certificate shall be prima facie evidence of all of the facts stated therein. (c) If the certificate recommends that the witness be taken into immediate custody and delivered to an officer of the requesting state to assure attendance in the requesting state, the judge may, in lieu of notification of the hearing, direct that the witness be immediately brought before the judge for said hearing; and if the judge at the hearing is satisfied of the desirability of the custody and delivery, for which determination the certificate shall be prima facie proof of this desirability, the judge may, in lieu of issuing subpoena, order that the witness be immediately taken into custody and delivered to an officer of the requesting state. (d) If the witness who is subpoenaed as provided in this section, after being paid or tendered by a properly authorized person a sum equivalent to the cost of air fare round trip passage on a certificated carrier or such prepaid passage and reasonable incidental travel allowance for going to and from airports plus $20 per day for each day that the witness is required to travel and attend as a witness, fails without good cause to attend and testify as directed in the subpoena, the witness shall be punished in the manner provided for the punishment of a witness who disobeys a subpoena issued from a court of record in this state. Sec. 12.50.020. Witness from another state subpoenaed to testify in this state. (a) If a person in a state which by its laws has made provision for commanding persons inside its borders to attend and testify in criminal prosecutions or grand jury investigations commenced or about to commence in this state as a material witness in a criminal action pending in a court of record of this state, or in a grand jury investigation which has commenced or is about to commence, a judge of the court may issue a certificate under the seal of the court stating these facts and specifying the number of days the witness will be required. The certificate may include a recommendation that the witness be taken into immediate custody and delivered to an officer of this state to assure attendance in this state. This certificate shall be presented to a judge of a court of record in the county or judicial district in which the witness is found. This order of a court in the other state delivering custody of a witness to an officer of this state shall be sufficient authority to an officer of this state to take the witness into custody and hold the witness until discharged by a court of this state. (b) If the witness is subpoenaed to attend and testify in this state the witness shall be tendered a sum equivalent to the cost of air fare round trip passage on a certificated carrier or such prepaid passage and reasonable incidental travel allowance for going to and from airports plus $20 per day for each day that the witness is required to travel and attend as a witness. A witness who has appeared in accordance with the provisions of the subpoena shall not be required to remain within the state a longer period of time than the period mentioned in the certificate, unless otherwise ordered by the court. If the witness, after coming into this state, fails without good cause to attend and testify as directed in the subpoena, the witness shall be punished in the manner provided for the punishment of any witness who disobeys a subpoena issued from a court of record in this state. Sec. 12.50.030. Immunity of witness from arrest or service of process. If a person comes into this state in obedience to a subpoena directing the person to attend and testify in this state, the person shall not, while in this state pursuant to the subpoena, be subject to arrest or the service of process, civil or criminal, in connection with matters which arose before entering this state under the subpoena. Sec. 12.50.040. Immunity of foreign witness passing through state from arrest or process. If a person passes through this state while going to another state in obedience to a subpoena to attend and testify in that state or while returning therefrom, the person shall not, while so passing through this state, be subject to arrest or the service of process, civil or criminal, in connection with matters which arose before entering this state under the subpoena. Sec. 12.50.050. Party seeking witness. The right to obtain witnesses under AS 12.50.010 — 12.50.080 in criminal proceedings shall extend to the state or a defendant. Witness fees shall be paid by the party calling the witness, except as provided in Rule 17(b), Alaska Rules of Criminal Procedure. If the time estimate in the certificate of the requesting court is exceeded, the nonindigent defendant shall be required to tender additional per diem or post bond to insure payment of total witness fees. Sec. 12.50.060. Uniformity of interpretation. AS 12.50.010 — 12.50.080 shall be so interpreted and construed as to effectuate the general purpose to make uniform the laws of the states which enact similar legislation. (1) "state" means a state, territory of the United States, and the District of Columbia; (2) "subpoena" includes a summons in a state where a summons is used in lieu of subpoena, order, or other notice requiring the appearance of a witness; the word subpoena also includes a subpoena duces tecum; (3) "witness" includes a person whose testimony is desired in a proceeding or investigation by a grand jury or in a criminal action, prosecution, or proceeding. AS 12.50.010 — 12.50.080 may be cited as the Uniform Act to Secure Attendance of Witnesses in Criminal Proceedings. Secs. 12.50.090 — 12.50.100. Material witnesses. [Repealed, § 2 ch 20 SLA 1966. For current law, see AS 12.30.050.] For current law, see AS 12.30.050. Article 2. Witness Immunity. Sec. 12.50.101. Immunity of witnesses. (a) If a witness refuses, on the basis of the privilege against self-incrimination, to testify or provide other information in a criminal proceeding before or ancillary to a court or grand jury of this state, and a judge issues an order under (b) of this section, the witness may not refuse to comply with the order on the basis of the privilege against self-incrimination. If the witness fully complies with the order, the witness may not be prosecuted for an offense about which the witness is compelled to testify, except in a prosecution based on perjury, giving a false statement or otherwise knowingly providing false information, or hindering prosecution. (b) In the case of an individual who has been or may be called to testify or provide other information in a criminal proceeding before or ancillary to a court or a grand jury of this state, a superior or district court for the judicial district in which the proceeding is or may be held shall issue, upon the application of the attorney general or the attorney general's designee in accordance with (d) of this section, an order requiring the individual to give testimony or provide other information that the individual refuses to give or provide based on the privilege against self-incrimination. (c) An order issued under (b) of this section is effective when communicated to the individual specified in the order. (d) The attorney general or the attorney general's designee may apply for an order under (b) of this section when, in the judgment of the attorney general or the attorney general's designee, (1) the testimony or other information may be necessary to the administration of criminal justice; and (2) the individual who is the subject of the application has refused or is likely to refuse to testify or to provide other information on the basis of the privilege against self-incrimination. (e) If a witness refuses, or there is reason to believe the witness will refuse, to testify or provide other information based on the privilege against self-incrimination, and if the attorney general or the attorney general's designee has not applied for an order under (b) of this section, the court shall inform the witness of the right to be represented by an attorney, and that an attorney will be appointed for the witness if the witness qualifies for counsel under AS 18.85. The court shall recess the proceeding to allow the witness to consult with the attorney for the witness. (f) If the attorney general or the attorney general's designee declines to seek an order under (b) of this section after the witness has had an opportunity to consult with an attorney, and the witness continues to refuse to testify or provide other information, the court shall hold a hearing to determine the validity of the claim of privilege by the witness. The hearing shall be in camera. (g) At the hearing under (f) of this section, the attorney for the witness, in the form of a proffer, shall describe the testimony or other information that the witness claims is privileged. The proffer must include a description of how the testimony or other information could connect the witness with a crime. The proffer is privileged and inadmissible for any other purpose. If the proffer establishes a factual basis that there is a real or substantial danger that the testimony or other information to be compelled would support a conviction or would furnish a link in the chain of evidence leading to conviction for a crime, the court may find that the witness has a valid claim of privilege. (h) If the court finds that the witness has a valid claim of privilege, it shall advise an attorney designated by the attorney general of that finding and inform the attorney of the category or categories of offense to which the privilege applies: a higher-level felony, a lower-level felony, or a misdemeanor. If the designated attorney decides that granting immunity to the witness is appropriate, the designated attorney shall inform the prosecution of that decision, and shall deliver or cause to be delivered a letter to the witness, or an attorney for the witness, granting immunity to the witness. The designated attorney may not disclose the category of offense to anyone. (1) "higher-level felony" means an unclassified or class A felony; (2) "lower-level felony" means a class B or class C felony; (3) "other information" means books, papers, documents, records, recordings, or other similar material; (4) "proffer" means a written or oral statement by the attorney for the witness, stating the attorney's good faith belief of the substance of the witness's testimony or other information. Article 3. Temporary Detention and Identification of Persons. Sec. 12.50.201. Temporary detention and identification of persons. (a) A peace officer may temporarily detain a person under circumstances that give the officer reasonable suspicion that (1) the person witnessed or was at or near the scene of the commission of a felony crime against a person under AS 11.41, arson under AS 11.46.400 or 11.46.410, criminal mischief under AS 11.46.475 or 11.46.480, or misconduct involving weapons under AS 11.61.190 or 11.61.195(a)(3); (2) the person has information of material aid in the investigation of that crime; and (3) the temporary detention of the person is reasonably necessary to obtain or verify the identification of the person, to obtain an account of the crime, to protect a crime victim from imminent harm, or for other exigent circumstances. (b) A peace officer who temporarily detains a person under (a) of this section may (1) detain the person only as long as reasonably necessary to accomplish the purposes of that subsection; (2) take one or more photographs of the person, if photographs can be taken without unreasonably delaying the person or removing the person from the vicinity; and (3) if the person does not provide valid government-issued photographic identification or other valid identification that the officer finds to be reliable to identify the person, or the officer has reasonable suspicion that the identification is not valid, (A) serve a subpoena on the person to appear before the grand jury where the crime was committed; and (B) take the person's fingerprint impressions if (i) the crime under investigation is murder, attempted murder, or misconduct involving weapons under AS 11.61.190 or 11.61.195(a)(3); and (ii) fingerprint impressions can be taken without unreasonably delaying the person or removing the person from the vicinity. (c) A peace officer electing to serve a subpoena under (b) of this section may not require the person to sign the subpoena or another document. The officer or the subpoena must advise the person that failure to honor the subpoena may be punishable as criminal contempt of court under AS 09.50.010. A person receiving a subpoena to testify under (b) of this section may request the district attorney to withdraw the subpoena if, before the grand jury proceeding for which the person has been served a subpoena to appear, the person provides the peace officer who served the subpoena or the lead investigator with valid government-issued photographic identification or other valid identification that the officer or lead investigator finds to be reliable to identify the person. (d) Photographs or fingerprints taken under (b) of this section (1) may be used for identification purposes only, and not for criminal investigative purposes unless it is determined that the person is suspected of committing a crime within the scope of the investigation; and (2) must be destroyed upon the earlier of the following occurrences unless it is determined that the person is suspected of committing a crime within the scope of the investigation: (A) the person has testified in a grand jury or court proceeding in connection with the matter under investigation; or (B) completion of the prosecution of the crime being investigated. (e) This section does not limit the authority of peace officers to investigate crimes, to collect evidence, to photograph crime scenes, evidence, or bystanders, to issue lawful court process, or to ensure the welfare of crime victims or other persons. (f) A person who refuses or resists the taking of photographs or fingerprints under this section commits a class B misdemeanor, punishable as provided in AS 12.55, except that a sentence of imprisonment, if imposed, may not exceed 10 days. (g) Notwithstanding (f) of this section, if the person establishes that the person does not have information of material aid in the investigation of the crime, it is within the discretion of the court to determine that this is a civil matter punishable by a civil fine of not more than $1,000. Chapter 55. Sentencing and Probation. The purpose of this chapter is to provide the means for determining the appropriate sentence to be imposed upon conviction of an offense. The legislature finds that the elimination of unjustified disparity in sentences and the attainment of reasonable uniformity in sentences can best be achieved through a sentencing framework fixed by statute as provided in this chapter. In imposing sentence, the court shall consider (1) the seriousness of the defendant's present offense in relation to other offenses; (2) the prior criminal history of the defendant and the likelihood of rehabilitation; (3) the need to confine the defendant to prevent further harm to the public; (4) the circumstances of the offense and the extent to which the offense harmed the victim or endangered the public safety or order; (5) the effect of the sentence to be imposed in deterring the defendant or other members of society from future criminal conduct; (6) the effect of the sentence to be imposed as a community condemnation of the criminal act and as a reaffirmation of societal norms; and (7) the restoration of the victim and the community. Sec. 12.55.010. Imprisonment on judgment for payment of fine. [Repealed, § 21 ch 166 SLA 1978. For present provisions, see AS 12.55.035(a).] Sec. 12.55.011. Victim and community involvement in sentencing. (a) A court, when considering the sentence to be imposed under this chapter for an offense other than a violation of AS 11.41, AS 11.46.400, or a crime involving domestic violence, may permit the victim and the offender to submit a sentence for the court's review based upon a negotiated agreement between the victim and the offender, or between the offender and the community if there is no victim. The court may, with the consent of the victim and the offender, impose the sentence that has been determined by the negotiated agreement between the offender and the victim, or between the offender and the community if there is no victim, if that sentence otherwise complies with this chapter and accomplishes the goals of restoration of the victim and the community and rehabilitation of the offender. Before accepting a negotiated agreement, the court shall determine that the victim has not been intimidated or coerced in reaching the agreement. In this section, "community" has the meaning determined by the court. (b) At the time of sentencing, the court shall, if practicable, provide the victim with a form that (1) provides information on (A) whom the victim should contact if the victim has questions about the sentence or release of the offender; (B) the potential for release of the offender on furlough, probation, or parole or for good time credit; and (2) allows the victim to update the victim's contact information with the court, the Victim Information and Notification Everyday service, and the Department of Corrections. Sec. 12.55.015. Authorized sentences; forfeiture. (a) Except as limited by AS 12.55.125 — 12.55.175, the court, in imposing sentence on a defendant convicted of an offense, may singly or in combination (1) impose a fine when authorized by law and as provided in AS 12.55.035; (2) order the defendant to be placed on probation under conditions specified by the court that may include provision for active supervision; (3) impose a definite term of periodic imprisonment, but only if an employment obligation of the defendant preexisted sentencing and the defendant receives a composite sentence of not more than two years to serve; (4) impose a definite term of continuous imprisonment; (5) order the defendant to make restitution under AS 12.55.045; (6) order the defendant to carry out a continuous or periodic program of community work under AS 12.55.055; (7) suspend execution of all or a portion of the sentence imposed under AS 12.55.080; (8) suspend entry of judgment under AS 12.55.078 or suspend imposition of sentence under AS 12.55.085; (9) order the forfeiture to the commissioner of public safety or a municipal law enforcement agency of a deadly weapon that was in the actual possession of or used by the defendant during the commission of an offense described in AS 11.41, AS 11.46, AS 11.56, or AS 11.61; (10) order the defendant, while incarcerated, to participate in or comply with the treatment plan of a rehabilitation program that is related to the defendant's offense or to the defendant's rehabilitation if the program is made available to the defendant by the Department of Corrections; (11) order the forfeiture to the state of a motor vehicle, weapon, electronic communication device, or money or other valuables, used in or obtained through an offense that was committed for the benefit of, at the direction of, or in association with a criminal street gang; (12) order the defendant to have no contact, either directly or indirectly, with a victim or witness of the offense until the defendant is unconditionally discharged; (13) order the defendant to refrain from consuming alcoholic beverages for a period of time. (b) The court, in exercising sentencing discretion as provided in this chapter, shall impose a sentence involving imprisonment when (1) the defendant deserves to be imprisoned, considering the seriousness of the present offense and the defendant's prior criminal history, and imprisonment is equitable considering sentences imposed for other offenses and other defendants under similar circumstances; (2) imprisonment is necessary to protect the public from further harm by the defendant; or (3) sentences of lesser severity have been repeatedly imposed for substantially similar offenses in the past and have proven ineffective in deterring the defendant from further criminal conduct. (c) In addition to the penalties authorized by this section, the court may invoke any authority conferred by law to order a forfeiture of property, suspend or revoke a license, remove a person from office, or impose any other civil penalty. When forfeiting property under this subsection, a court may award to a municipal law enforcement agency that participated in the arrest or conviction of the defendant, the seizure of property, or the identification of property for seizure, (1) the property if the property is worth $5,000 or less and is not money or some other thing that is divisible, or (2) up to 75 percent of the property or the value of the property if the property is worth more than $5,000 or is money or some other thing that is divisible. In determining the percentage a municipal law enforcement agency may receive under this subsection, the court shall consider the municipal law enforcement agency's total involvement in the case relative to the involvement of the state. (e) If the defendant is ordered to serve a definite term of imprisonment, the court may recommend that the defendant serve all or part of the term (1) in a correctional restitution center; (2) by electronic monitoring. (f) Notwithstanding (a) of this section, the court shall order the forfeiture to the commissioner of public safety or a municipal law enforcement agency of a deadly weapon that was in the actual possession of or used by the defendant during the commission of a crime involving domestic violence. (g) Unless a defendant is ineligible for a deduction under AS 33.20, when a defendant is sentenced to a term of imprisonment of two years or more, the sentence consists of two parts: (1) a minimum term of imprisonment that is equal to not less than two-thirds of the total term of imprisonment; and (2) a maximum term of supervised release on mandatory parole that is equal to not more than one-third of the total term of imprisonment; the amount of time that the inmate actually serves in imprisonment and on supervised release is subject to the provisions of AS 33.20.010 — 33.20.060. (h) In addition to penalties authorized by this section, the court shall order a person convicted of an offense requiring the state to collect a blood sample, oral sample, or both, for the deoxyribonucleic acid identification registration system under AS 44.41.035 to submit to the collection of (1) the sample or samples when requested by a health care professional acting on behalf of the state to provide the sample or samples; or (2) an oral sample when requested by a juvenile or adult correctional, probation, or parole officer, or a peace officer. (i) In addition to penalties authorized by this section, the court may order a defendant convicted of a violation of AS 11.41.410 or 11.41.434 where the victim of the offense was under 13 years of age to be subject to electronic monitoring up to the maximum length of probation on the person's release from a correctional facility. (j) Nothing in (a)(13) of this section limits or restricts the authority of a court to order a person to refrain from the consumption of alcohol as a condition of sentence or probation. (k) In this section "deadly weapon" has the meaning given in AS 11.81.900. Sec. 12.55.020. Enforcing judgment to pay money. [Repealed, § 21 ch 166 SLA 1978. For present provisions, see AS 12.55.025(f), AS 12.55.035(a), (d) and AS 12.55.051.] Sec. 12.55.022. Victim impact statement. As part of the presentence report prepared on each felony offender, the probation officer shall prepare a victim impact statement reporting the following information: (1) the financial, emotional, and medical effects of the offense on the victim; (2) the need of the victim for restitution; and (3) any other information required by the court. Sec. 12.55.023. Participation by victim in sentencing. (a) If a victim requests, the prosecuting attorney shall provide the victim, before the sentencing hearing, with a copy of the following portions of the presentence report: (1) the summary of the offense prepared by the Department of Corrections; (2) the defendant's version of the offense; (3) all statements and summaries of statements of the victim; (4) the sentence recommendation of the Department of Corrections; and (5) letters of support submitted to the court for consideration. (b) A victim may submit to the sentencing court a written statement that the victim believes is relevant to the sentencing decision and may give sworn testimony or make an unsworn oral presentation to the court at the sentencing hearing. If there are numerous victims, the court may reasonably limit the number of victims who may give sworn testimony or make an unsworn oral presentation during the hearing. When requested by the victim of a felony or a class A misdemeanor, if the class A misdemeanor is a crime involving domestic violence or a crime against a person under AS 11.41, when the victim does not submit a statement, give testimony, or make an oral presentation, the victims' advocate may submit a written statement or make an unsworn oral presentation at the sentencing hearing on behalf of the victim. Sec. 12.55.025. Sentencing procedures. (a) When imposing a sentence for conviction of a felony offense or a sentence of imprisonment exceeding 90 days or upon a conviction of a violation of AS 04, a regulation adopted under AS 04, or an ordinance adopted in conformity with AS 04.21.010, the court shall prepare, as a part of the record, a sentencing report that includes the following: (1) a verbatim record of the sentencing hearing and any other in-court sentencing procedures; (2) findings on material issues of fact and on factual questions required to be determined as a prerequisite to the selection of the sentence imposed; (3) a clear statement of the terms of the sentence imposed; if a term of imprisonment is imposed, the statement must include (A) the approximate minimum term the defendant is expected to serve before being released or placed on mandatory parole if the defendant is eligible for and does not forfeit good conduct deductions under AS 33.20.010; and (B) if applicable, the approximate minimum term of imprisonment the defendant must serve before becoming eligible for release on discretionary parole; (4) any recommendations as to the place of confinement or the manner of treatment; and (5) in the case of a conviction for a felony offense, information assessing (A) the financial, emotional, and medical effects of the offense on the victim; (B) the need of the victim for restitution; and (C) any other information required by the court. (b) The sentencing report required under (a) of this section shall be furnished within 30 days after imposition of sentence to the Department of Law, the defendant, the Department of Corrections, the state Board of Parole if the defendant will be eligible for parole, and to the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board if the defendant is to be sentenced for a conviction of a violation of AS 04, a regulation adopted under AS 04, or an ordinance adopted under AS 04.21.010. (c) Except as provided in (d) of this section, when a defendant is sentenced to imprisonment, the term of confinement commences on the date of imposition of sentence unless the court specifically provides that the defendant must report to serve the sentence on another date. If the court provides another date to begin the term of confinement, the court shall provide the defendant with written notice of the date, time, and location of the correctional facility to which the defendant must report. A defendant shall receive credit for time spent in custody pending trial, sentencing, or appeal, if the detention was in connection with the offense for which sentence was imposed including a technical violation of probation as provided in AS 12.55.110. A defendant may not receive credit for more than the actual time spent in custody pending trial, sentencing, or appeal. The time during which a defendant is voluntarily absent from official detention after the defendant has been sentenced may not be credited toward service of the sentence. (d) A sentence of imprisonment shall be stayed if an appeal is taken and the defendant is admitted to bail. If an appeal is taken and the defendant is not admitted to bail, the Department of Corrections shall designate the facility in which the defendant shall be detained pending appeal or admission to bail. (f) A sentence that the defendant pay money, either as a fine or in restitution or both, constitutes a lien in the same manner as a judgment for money entered in a civil action. Nothing in this section limits the authority of the court to otherwise enforce payment of a fine or restitution. (h) [Repealed, § 7 ch 125 SLA 2004.] (i) Except as otherwise provided in this chapter, the preponderance of the evidence standard of proof applies to sentencing proceedings. (j) The approximate minimum terms provided under (a)(3) of this section in the sentencing report are for information purposes only. The approximate minimum terms are not part of the sentence imposed and do not form a basis for review or appeal of the sentence imposed or provide a defendant with a right to any specific term of imprisonment or supervised release on mandatory parole. (k) If a defendant intends to claim credit under AS 12.55.027 toward a sentence of imprisonment for time spent in a treatment program as a condition of bail in connection with an offense for which the defendant is being sentenced, the defendant shall file notice with the court and the prosecutor 10 days before the sentencing hearing. The notice shall include the number of days the defendant is claiming. The defendant must prove by a preponderance of evidence that the requirements of AS 12.55.027 are met before credit may be awarded. Except as provided in (l) of this section, except for good cause, a court may not consider a request for credit made under this subsection more than 90 days after the sentencing hearing. (l) If a defendant intends to claim credit under AS 12.55.027 toward a sentence of imprisonment for time spent in a treatment program as a condition of bail while pending appeal, the defendant shall file notice with the court and the prosecutor not later than 90 days after return of the case to the trial court following appeal. The notice shall include the number of days the defendant is claiming. The defendant must prove by a preponderance of evidence that the requirements of AS 12.55.027 are met before credit may be awarded. Except for good cause, the court may not consider a request for credit made under this subsection after the deadline. Sec. 12.55.027. Credit for time spent toward service of a sentence of imprisonment. (a) A court may grant a defendant credit toward a sentence of imprisonment for time spent in a treatment program that furthers the reformation and rehabilitation of the defendant if the court finds that the program places a substantial restriction on the defendant's freedom of movement and behavior and is consistent with this section. (b) A court may only grant credit under this section (1) in the amount of one day of credit toward a sentence of imprisonment for each full day the defendant spent in a treatment program; and (2) if the court ordered the defendant to participate in and comply with the conditions of the treatment program before the defendant entered the program. (c) In granting credit toward a sentence of imprisonment for time spent in a treatment program, a court shall consider the following factors: (1) the restrictions on the defendant's freedom of movement and behavior; (2) the circumstances under which the defendant was enrolled in the program; (3) the residency requirements of the program; (4) the physical custody and supervision of the defendant at the program; (5) the circumstances under which the defendant is permitted to leave the program's facility; (6) the rules of the program and the requirement that the defendant obey the orders of persons who have immediate custody or control over the defendant; (7) the sanctions on the defendant for violating the program's rules or orders; (8) whether the defendant is subject to arrest for leaving the program's facility without permission; (9) the use of an electronic monitoring device; (10) whether the program provides substance abuse treatment; (11) the use of other technology that monitors or restricts the defendant's movement and behavior; (12) other factors that support the court's finding that the program places a substantial restriction on the defendant's freedom of movement and behavior; (13) other factors that support the court's finding that the program furthers the reformation and rehabilitation of the defendant. (d) A court may grant credit against a sentence of imprisonment for time spent under electronic monitoring if the person has not committed a criminal offense while under electronic monitoring and the court imposes restrictions on the person's freedom of movement and behavior while under the electronic monitoring program, including requiring the person to be confined to a residence except for a (1) court appearance; (2) meeting with counsel; or (3) period during which the person is at a location ordered by the court for the purposes of employment, attending educational or vocational training, performing community volunteer work, or attending a rehabilitative activity or medical appointment. (e) If a defendant intends to claim credit toward a sentence of imprisonment for time spent in a treatment program or under electronic monitoring either as a condition of probation or as a condition of bail release after a petition to revoke probation has been filed, the defendant shall file notice with the court and the prosecutor 10 days before the disposition hearing. The notice shall include the amount of time the defendant is claiming. The defendant must prove by a preponderance of the evidence that the credit claimed meets the requirements of this section. A court may not consider, except for good cause, a request for credit made under this subsection more than 90 days after the disposition hearing. (f) To qualify as a treatment program under this section, a program must (1) be intended to address criminogenic traits or behaviors; (2) provide measures of progress or completion; and (3) require notification to the pretrial services office or probation officer if the person is discharged from the program for noncompliance. (g) A court granting credit against a sentence of imprisonment under (d) of this section may grant credit of not more than 360 days against a total term of imprisonment imposed for (1) a felony crime against a person under AS 11.41; (2) a crime involving domestic violence as defined in AS 18.66.990; (3) a sex offense as defined in AS 12.63.100; (4) an offense under AS 11.71 involving the delivery of a controlled substance to a person under 19 years of age; (5) burglary in the first degree under AS 11.46.300; or (6) arson in the first degree under AS 11.46.400. (h) Nothing in this section authorizes the release of a person on electronic monitoring after conviction and while awaiting sentencing if the person is ineligible for release under AS 12.30.040(b). Sec. 12.55.030. Discharge of indigents imprisoned for nonpayment of fine. [Repealed, § 16 ch 53 SLA 1973.] (a) Upon conviction of an offense, a defendant may be sentenced to pay a fine as authorized in this section or as otherwise authorized by law. (b) Upon conviction of an offense, a defendant who is not an organization may be sentenced to pay, unless otherwise specified in the provision of law defining the offense, a fine of not more than (1) $500,000 for murder in the first or second degree, attempted murder in the first degree, murder of an unborn child, sexual assault in the first degree, sexual abuse of a minor in the first degree, kidnapping, sex trafficking in the first degree under AS 11.66.110(a)(2), or misconduct involving a controlled substance in the first degree; (2) $250,000 for a class A felony; (3) $100,000 for a class B felony; (4) $50,000 for a class C felony; (5) $25,000 for a class A misdemeanor; (6) $2,000 for a class B misdemeanor; (7) $500 for a violation. (c) Upon conviction of an offense, a defendant that is an organization may be sentenced to pay a fine not exceeding the greatest of (1) an amount that is (A) $2,500,000 for a felony offense or for a misdemeanor offense that results in death; (B) $500,000 for a class A misdemeanor offense that does not result in death; (C) $75,000 for a class B misdemeanor offense that does not result in death; (D) $25,000 for a violation; (2) three times the pecuniary gain (A) realized by the defendant as a result of the offense; or (B) sought by the defendant for the defendant or for others by the commission of the offense; or (3) three times the pecuniary damage or loss (A) caused by the defendant to another, or to the property of another, as a result of the offense; or (B) to another or the property of another sought by the defendant by the commission of the offense. (d) If a defendant is sentenced to pay a fine, the court may grant permission for the payment to be made within a specified period of time or in specified installments. (e) In imposing a fine under (c) of this section, in addition to any other relevant factors, the court shall consider (1) measures taken by the organization to discipline an officer, director, employee, or agent of the organization; (2) measures taken by the organization to prevent a recurrence of the offense; (3) the organization's obligation to make restitution to a victim of the offense, and the extent to which imposition of a fine will impair the ability of the organization to make restitution; and (4) the extent to which the organization will pass on to consumers the expense of the fine. (f) In imposing a fine, the court may not reduce the fine by the amount of a surcharge or otherwise consider the applicability of a surcharge to the offense. (g) Fines imposed and collected under this section shall be separately accounted for under AS 37.05.142. Sec. 12.55.036. Day fines. [Repealed, § 4 ch 33 SLA 2009.] Sec. 12.55.039. Surcharge. (a) In addition to any fine or other penalty prescribed by law, a defendant who pleads guilty or nolo contendere to, forfeits bail for, or is convicted of a (1) felony shall be assessed a surcharge of $100; (2) violation of a misdemeanor offense under AS 28.33.030, 28.33.031, AS 28.35.030, or 28.35.032, or a violation of a municipal ordinance comparable to a misdemeanor offense under AS 28.33.030, 28.33.031, AS 28.35.030, or 28.35.032 and adopted under AS 28.01.010, shall be assessed a surcharge of $75; (3) misdemeanor or a violation of a municipal ordinance if a sentence of incarceration may be imposed for the misdemeanor or ordinance violation, other than a provision identified in (2) of this subsection, shall be assessed a surcharge of $50; (4) misdemeanor for which a sentence of incarceration may not be imposed, a violation or an infraction under state law, or a violation of a municipal ordinance imposing a penalty authorized by AS 29.25.070(a) if a sentence of incarceration may not be imposed for the ordinance violation, shall be assessed a surcharge of $10 if the fine or bail forfeiture amount for the offense is $30 or more. (b) A court may not fail to impose the surcharge required under this section. The surcharge may not be waived, deferred, or suspended. A court may allow a defendant who is unable to pay the surcharge required to be imposed under this section to perform community work under AS 12.55.055(c) in lieu of the surcharge. (c) The surcharge shall be paid within 10 days of imposition or such shorter period of time as ordered by the court. Failure to pay the surcharge is punishable as contempt of court. Proceedings to collect the surcharge may be instituted by the state, the municipality, or by the court on its own motion. (d) Money collected under this section shall be deposited into the general fund and accounted for under AS 37.05.142. Sec. 12.55.040. Increased punishment for habitual criminal after conviction of petty larceny or misdemeanor involving fraud. [Repealed, § 21 ch 166 SLA 1978.] Sec. 12.55.041. Correctional facility surcharge. (a) In addition to any fine or other penalty prescribed by law, a defendant who pleads guilty or nolo contendere to, or is convicted of, a crime under state law shall pay a correctional facility surcharge if, in connection with the crime, the defendant (1) was arrested and taken to a correctional facility, regardless of whether the defendant was released or admitted to the facility; or (2) is sentenced to serve a term of imprisonment. (b) The court shall impose a single surcharge under (a) of this section on a defendant being sentenced for one or more crimes in a single judgment. The surcharge is (1) $100 if the judgment includes a sentence for a felony; (2) $50 if the judgment does not include a sentence for a felony. (c) If the court places the defendant on probation, the court shall order that the defendant pay an additional correctional facility surcharge of $100. The additional surcharge shall be suspended but later imposed if the defendant's probation is revoked and, in connection with the probation revocation, the defendant (2) is ordered to serve a term of imprisonment for the probation revocation. (d) The court shall include a surcharge imposed under (a) of this section in the judgment of conviction. The court shall include the imposition of a surcharge under (c) of this section in the order revoking probation. For a surcharge that is not paid by the person as required by this section, the state shall seek reimbursement from the person's permanent fund dividend as provided under AS 43.23.065. For purposes of collection and priority of attachment under AS 43.23.065, a surcharge imposed under this section is accounted for in the same manner as a cost of imprisonment under AS 28.35.030(k) and 28.35.032(o). The state may enforce payment of a surcharge under this section under AS 09.35 as if it were a civil judgment enforceable by execution. This subsection does not limit the authority of the court to enforce surcharges. (e) In this section, "correctional facility" has the meaning given in AS 33.30.901. Sec. 12.55.045. Restitution and compensation. (a) The court shall, when presented with credible evidence, unless the victim or other person expressly declines restitution, order a defendant convicted of an offense to make restitution as provided in this section, including restitution to the victim or other person injured by the offense, to a public, private, or private nonprofit organization that has provided or is or will be providing counseling, medical, or shelter services to the victim or other person injured by the offense, or as otherwise authorized by law. The court shall, when presented with credible evidence, unless the victim expressly declines restitution, also order a defendant convicted of an offense to compensate a victim that is a nonprofit organization for the value of labor or goods provided by volunteers if the labor or goods were necessary to alleviate or mitigate the effects of the defendant's crime. In determining the amount and method of payment of restitution or compensation, the court shall take into account the (1) public policy that favors requiring criminals to compensate for damages and injury, including loss of income, to their victims; and (2) financial burden placed on the victim and those who provide services to the victim and other persons injured by the offense as a result of the criminal conduct of the defendant. (b) An order of restitution under this section does not limit any civil liability of the defendant arising from the defendant's conduct. (c) If a defendant is sentenced to pay restitution, the court may grant permission for the payment to be made within a specified period of time or in specified installments. If the defendant fails to make one or more payments required under this section, the victim or the state on the victim's behalf may enforce the total amount remaining under the order of restitution as provided in (l) of this section. (d) In any case, including a case in which the defendant is convicted of a violation of AS 11.46.120 — 11.46.150 and the property is commercial fishing gear as defined in AS 16.43.990, the court shall consider the victim's loss, and the order of restitution may include compensation for loss of income. (g) The court may not, in ordering the amount of restitution, consider the defendant's ability to pay restitution. (h) In imposing restitution under this section, the court may require the defendant to make restitution by means other than the payment of money. (i) An order of restitution made under this section is a condition of the defendant's sentence and, in cases in which the court suspends all or a portion of the defendant's sentence, the order of restitution is a condition of the suspended sentence. If the court suspends imposition of sentence under AS 12.55.085, the order of restitution is a condition of the suspended imposition of sentence. (j) A defendant who is convicted of an offense for which restitution may be ordered shall submit financial information as ordered by the court. The Alaska Court System shall prepare a form, in consultation with the Department of Law, for the submission of the information; the form must include a warning that submission of incomplete or inaccurate information is punishable as unsworn falsification in the second degree under AS 11.56.210. A defendant who is convicted of (1) a felony shall submit the form to the probation office within 30 days after conviction, and the probation officer shall attach the form to the presentence report, or (2) a misdemeanor shall file the form with the defendant's response or opposition to the restitution amount. The defendant shall provide a copy of the completed form to the prosecuting authority. (k) The court, on its own motion or at the request of the prosecuting authority or probation officer, may order a defendant on probation who has been ordered to pay restitution to submit financial information to the court using the form specified in (j) of this section. The defendant shall file the completed form with the court within five days after the court's order. The defendant shall provide a copy of the completed form to the prosecuting authority and the person's probation officer, if any. (l) An order by the court that the defendant pay restitution is a civil judgment for the amount of the restitution. An order by the court that the defendant pay restitution when the court suspends entry of judgment under AS 12.55.078 or suspends imposition of sentence under AS 12.55.085 is a civil judgment for the amount of the restitution and remains enforceable and is not discharged when the proceeding is dismissed under AS 12.55.078 or a conviction is set aside under AS 12.55.085. The victim or the state on behalf of the victim may enforce the judgment through any procedure authorized by law for the enforcement of a civil judgment. If the victim enforces or collects restitution through civil process, collection costs and full reasonable attorney fees shall be awarded. If the state on the victim's behalf enforces or collects restitution through civil process, collection costs and full reasonable attorney fees shall be awarded, up to a maximum of twice the amount of restitution owing at the time the civil process was initiated. This section does not limit the authority of the court to enforce orders of restitution. (m) Notwithstanding another provision of law, the court shall accept (1) payments of restitution from a defendant at any time, and (2) prepayments of restitution or payments in anticipation of an order of restitution. If the recipient has elected to have the Department of Law collect the judgment of restitution under AS 12.55.051(g), the court shall forward all payments of restitution to the Department of Law within five days after the court's acceptance. (n) In determining the amount of actual damages or loss for restitution under this section, the court shall value property as the market value of the property at the time and place of the crime or, if the market value cannot reasonably be ascertained, the cost of replacement of the property within a reasonable time after the crime. (o) In this section, (1) "conviction" means that the defendant has entered a plea of guilty, guilty but mentally ill, or nolo contendere, or has been found guilty or guilty but mentally ill by a court or jury; (2) "loss of income" includes the total loss of income a business or person suffers as a result of not having stolen property available during the time it takes to obtain a replacement. Sec. 12.55.050. Increased punishment for persons convicted of more than one felony. [Repealed, § 21 ch 166 SLA 1978. For sentences of imprisonment for felonies, see AS 12.55.125.] Sec. 12.55.051. Enforcement of fines and restitution. (a) If the defendant defaults in the payment of a fine or any installment or of restitution or any installment, the court may order the defendant to show cause why the defendant should not be sentenced to imprisonment for nonpayment and, if the payment was made a condition of the defendant's probation, may revoke the probation of the defendant subject to the limits set out in AS 12.55.110. In a contempt or probation revocation proceeding brought as a result of failure to pay a fine or restitution, it is an affirmative defense that the defendant was unable to pay despite having made continuing good faith efforts to pay the fine or restitution. If the court finds that the defendant was unable to pay despite having made continuing good faith efforts, the defendant may not be imprisoned solely because of the inability to pay. If the court does not find that the default was attributable to the defendant's inability to pay despite having made continuing good faith efforts to pay the fine or restitution, the court may order the defendant imprisoned subject to the limits set out in AS 12.55.110. A term of imprisonment imposed under this section may not exceed one day for each $50 of the unpaid portion of the fine or restitution or one year, whichever is shorter. Credit shall be given toward satisfaction of the order of the court for every day a person is incarcerated for nonpayment of a fine or restitution. (b) When a fine or restitution is imposed on an organization, the person authorized to make disbursements from the assets of the organization shall pay the fine or restitution from those assets. A person required to pay a fine or restitution under this subsection who intentionally refuses or fails to make a good faith effort to pay is punishable under (a) of this section. (c) A defendant who has been sentenced to pay a fine or restitution may request a hearing regarding the defendant's ability to pay the fine or restitution at any time that the defendant is required to pay all or a portion of the fine or restitution. The court may deny the request if it has previously considered the defendant's ability to pay and the defendant's request does not allege changed circumstances. If, at a hearing under this subsection, the defendant proves by a preponderance of the evidence that the defendant will be unable through good faith efforts to satisfy the order requiring payment of the fine or restitution, the court shall modify the order so that the defendant can pay the fine or restitution through good faith efforts. The court may reduce the fine ordered, change the payment schedule, or otherwise modify the order. The court may not reduce an order of restitution but may change the payment schedule. (d) The state may enforce payment of a fine against a defendant under AS 09.35 as if the order were a civil judgment enforceable by execution. This subsection does not limit the authority of the court to enforce fines. (e) The Department of Law is authorized to collect restitution on behalf of the recipient unless (1) the recipient elects as provided in (f) of this section to enforce the order of restitution without the assistance of the Department of Law; or (2) the order requires restitution to be made in a form other than payment of a specific dollar amount. (f) The court shall forward a copy of an order of restitution to the Department of Law when the judgment is entered. Along with the copy of the order, the court shall provide the name, date of birth, social security number, and current address of the recipient of the restitution and the defendant, to the extent that the court has that information in its possession. Upon receipt of the order and other information from the court, the Department of Law shall send a notice to the recipient regarding the recipient's rights under this section, including the right to elect to enforce the order of restitution without the assistance of the Department of Law. The information provided to the Department of Law under this subsection is confidential and is not open to inspection as a public record under AS 40.25.110. The Department of Law or its agents may not disclose the information except as necessary to collect on the restitution. (g) The Department of Law may not begin collection procedures on the order of restitution until the recipient has been given notice and has been given 30 days after receipt of notice to elect to collect the restitution without the assistance of the Department of Law. A recipient may inform the Department of Law at a later time of the recipient's election to collect the restitution without the assistance of the Department of Law; upon receipt of that information, the Department of Law may no longer proceed with collection efforts on behalf of the recipient. A recipient who has elected under this section to collect restitution without the assistance of the Department of Law may not later request the services of that department to collect the restitution. (h) If the Department of Law or its agents proceed to collect restitution on behalf of a recipient under (g) of this section, the actions of the Department of Law or an agent of the Department of Law on behalf of the recipient do not create an attorney-client relationship between the Department of Law and the recipient. The Department of Law or its agents may not settle a judgment for restitution without the consent of the recipient of the restitution. (i) An action for damages may not be brought against the state or any of its agents, officers, or employees based on an action or omission under this section. (j) The Department of Law may enter into contracts on behalf of the state to carry out the collection procedures of this section. The Department of Law may adopt regulations necessary to carry out the collection procedures of this section, including the reimbursement of attorney fees and costs in appropriate cases. Sec. 12.55.055. Community work. (a) The court may order a defendant convicted of an offense to perform community work as a condition of probation, a suspended sentence, suspended imposition of sentence, or suspended entry of judgment, or in addition to any fine or restitution ordered. If the defendant is sentenced to imprisonment, the court may recommend to the Department of Corrections that the defendant perform community work. (b) Community work includes work on projects designed to reduce or eliminate environmental damage, protect the public health, or improve public lands, forests, parks, roads, highways, facilities, or education. Community work may not confer a private benefit on a person except as may be incidental to the public benefit. (c) The court may offer a defendant convicted of an offense the option of performing community work in lieu of a fine, surcharge, or portion of a fine or surcharge if the court finds the defendant is unable to pay the fine. The value of community work in lieu of a fine is the state's minimum wage for each hour. (d) The court may offer a defendant convicted of an offense the option of performing community work in lieu of a sentence of imprisonment. Substitution of community work shall be at a rate of eight hours for each day of imprisonment. A court may not offer substitution of community work for any mandatory minimum period of imprisonment or for any period within the presumptive range of imprisonment for the offense. (e) Medical benefits for an individual injured while performing community work at the direction of the state shall be assumed by the state to the extent not covered by collateral sources. When the state pays medical benefits under this subsection, a claim for medical expenses by the injured individual against a third party is subrogated to the state. (g) The court may not (1) offer a defendant convicted of an offense the option of serving jail time in lieu of performing uncompleted community work previously ordered by the court; or (2) convert uncompleted community work hours into a sentence of imprisonment. (h) If a court orders community work as part of the defendant's sentence under this section, the court shall provide notice to the defendant at sentencing and include as a provision of the judgment that if the defendant fails to provide proof of community work within 20 days after the date set by the court, the court shall convert those community work hours to a fine equal to the number of uncompleted work hours multiplied by the state's minimum hourly wage and issue a judgment against the defendant for that amount. Secs. 12.55.060 — 12.55.075. Prior convictions; sentencing reports; imposition of sentence. [Repealed, § 21 ch 166 SLA 1978.] Sec. 12.55.078. Suspending entry of judgment. (a) Except as provided in (f) of this section, if a person is found guilty or pleads guilty to a crime, the court may, with the consent of the defendant and the prosecution and without imposing or entering a judgment of guilt, defer further proceedings and place the person on probation. The period of probation may not exceed the applicable terms set out in AS 12.55.090(c). The court may not impose a sentence of imprisonment under this subsection. (b) The court shall impose conditions of probation for a person on probation as provided in (a) of this section, which may include that the person (1) abide by all local, state, and federal laws; (2) not leave the state without prior consent of the court; (3) pay restitution as ordered by the court; and (4) obey any other conditions of probation set by the court. (c) At any time during the probationary term of the person released on probation, a probation officer may, without warrant or other process, rearrest the person so placed in the officer's care and bring the person before the court, or the court may, in its discretion, issue a warrant for the rearrest of the person. The court may revoke and terminate the probation if the court finds that the person placed on probation is (1) violating the conditions of probation; (2) engaging in criminal practices; or (3) violating an order of the court to participate in or comply with the treatment plan of a rehabilitation program under AS 12.55.015(a)(10). (d) If the court finds that the person has successfully completed probation, the court shall, at the end of the probationary period set by the court, or at any time after the expiration of one year from the date the original probation was imposed, discharge the person and dismiss the proceedings against the person. A person who is discharged under this subsection is not convicted of a crime. (e) If the court finds that the person has violated the conditions of probation ordered by the court, the court may revoke and terminate the person's probation, enter judgment on the person's previous plea or finding of guilt, and pronounce sentence at any time within the maximum probation period authorized by this section. (f) The court may not suspend the imposition or entry of judgment and may not defer prosecution under this section of a person who (1) is charged with a violation of AS 11.41.100 — 11.41.220, 11.41.260 — 11.41.320, 11.41.360 — 11.41.370, 11.41.410 — 11.41.530, AS 11.46.400, AS 11.61.125 — 11.61.128, or AS 11.66.110 — 11.66.135; (2) uses a firearm in the commission of the offense for which the person is charged; (3) has previously been granted a suspension of judgment under this section or a similar statute in another jurisdiction, unless the court enters written findings that by clear and convincing evidence the person's prospects for rehabilitation are high and suspending judgment under this section adequately protects the victim of the offense, if any, and the community; (4) is charged with a violation of AS 11.41.230, 11.41.250, or a felony and the person has one or more prior convictions for a misdemeanor violation of AS 11.41 or for a felony or for a violation of a law in this or another jurisdiction having similar elements to an offense defined as a misdemeanor in AS 11.41 or as a felony in this state; for the purposes of this paragraph, a person shall be considered to have a prior conviction even if (A) the charges were dismissed under this section; (B) the conviction has been set aside under AS 12.55.085; or (C) the charge or conviction was dismissed or set aside under an equivalent provision of the laws of another jurisdiction; or (5) is charged with a crime involving domestic violence, as defined in AS 18.66.990. Sec. 12.55.080. Suspension of sentence and probation. Upon entering a judgment of conviction of a crime, or at any time within 60 days from the date of entry of that judgment of conviction, a court, when satisfied that the ends of justice and the best interest of the public as well as the defendant will be served thereby, may suspend the imposition or execution or balance of the sentence or a portion thereof, and place the defendant on probation for a period and upon the terms and conditions as the court considers best. Sec. 12.55.085. Suspending imposition of sentence. (a) Except as provided in (f) of this section, if it appears that there are circumstances in mitigation of the punishment, or that the ends of justice will be served, the court may, in its discretion, suspend the imposition of sentence and may direct that the suspension continue for a period of time, not exceeding the maximum term of sentence that may be imposed or a period of one year, whichever is greater, and upon the terms and conditions that the court determines, and shall place the person on probation, under the charge and supervision of the probation officer of the court during the suspension. (b) At any time during the probationary term of the person released on probation, a probation officer may, without warrant or other process, rearrest the person so placed in the officer's care and bring the person before the court, or the court may, in its discretion, issue a warrant for the rearrest of the person. The court may revoke and terminate the probation if the interests of justice require, and if the court, in its judgment, has reason to believe that the person placed upon probation is (c) Upon the revocation and termination of the probation, the court may pronounce sentence at any time within the maximum probation period authorized by this section, subject to the limitation specified in AS 12.55.086(c). (d) The court may at any time during the period of probation revoke or modify its order of suspension of imposition of sentence. It may at any time, when the ends of justice will be served, and when the good conduct and reform of the person held on probation warrant it, terminate the period of probation and discharge the person held. If the court has not revoked the order of probation and pronounced sentence, the defendant shall, at the end of the term of probation, be discharged by the court. (e) Upon the discharge by the court without imposition of sentence, the court may set aside the conviction and issue to the person a certificate to that effect. (f) The court may not suspend the imposition of sentence of a person who (1) is convicted of a violation of AS 11.41.100 — 11.41.220, 11.41.260 — 11.41.320, 11.41.360 — 11.41.370, 11.41.410 — 11.41.530, AS 11.46.400, AS 11.61.125 — 11.61.128, or AS 11.66.110 — 11.66.135; (2) uses a firearm in the commission of the offense for which the person is convicted; or (3) is convicted of a violation of AS 11.41.230 — 11.41.250 or a felony and the person has one or more prior convictions for a misdemeanor violation of AS 11.41 or for a felony or for a violation of a law in this or another jurisdiction having similar elements to an offense defined as a misdemeanor in AS 11.41 or as a felony in this state; for the purposes of this paragraph, a person shall be considered to have a prior conviction even if that conviction has been set aside under (e) of this section or under the equivalent provision of the laws of another jurisdiction. Sec. 12.55.086. Imprisonment as a condition of suspended imposition of sentence. (a) When the imposition of sentence is suspended under AS 12.55.085, the court may require, as a special condition of probation, that the defendant serve a definite term of continuous or periodic imprisonment, not to exceed the maximum term of imprisonment that could have been imposed. The court may recommend that the defendant serve all or part of the term in a correctional restitution center. (b) A defendant imprisoned under this section is entitled to a deduction from the term of imprisonment for good conduct under AS 33.20.010. Unless otherwise specified in the order of suspension of imposition of sentence, a defendant imprisoned under this section is eligible for parole if the term of imprisonment exceeds one year and is eligible for any work furlough, rehabilitation furlough, or similar program available to other state prisoners. (c) If probation is revoked and the defendant is sentenced to imprisonment, the defendant shall receive credit for time served under this section. Deductions for good conduct under AS 33.20.010 do not constitute "time served." Sec. 12.55.088. Modification of sentence. (a) The court may modify or reduce a sentence by entering a written order under a motion made within 180 days of the original sentencing. (b) The sentencing court may not be required to entertain a second or successive motion for similar relief brought under (a) of this section on behalf of the same prisoner. (c) A sentence may not be reduced or modified so as to result in a term of imprisonment that is less than the minimum sentence or lower than the presumptive range required by law for the original sentence. (d) A victim has the right to comment in writing to the court on a motion to modify or reduce a sentence filed by the person who perpetrated the offense against the victim, and has the right to give sworn testimony or make an unsworn oral presentation at a hearing held in connection with the motion. If there are numerous victims, the court may limit the number of victims who may give sworn testimony or make an unsworn oral presentation during the hearing. (e) If a motion is filed to modify or reduce a sentence by a defendant who perpetrated a crime against a person or arson in the first degree, the court shall, if feasible, send a copy of the motion to the Department of Corrections sufficiently in advance of any scheduled hearing or briefing deadline to enable the department to notify the victim of that crime. If that victim has earlier requested to be notified, the Department of Corrections shall send the victim a copy of the motion and inform the person of that person's rights under this section, the deadline for receipt of written comments, the hearing date, and the court's address. (f) The court shall provide copies of the victim's written comments to the prosecuting attorney, the person filing the motion to reduce or modify a sentence, and that person's attorney. (g) In deciding whether to modify or reduce a sentence, the court shall consider the victim's comments, testimony, or unsworn oral presentation, when relevant, and any response by the prosecuting attorney and the person filing the motion. (h) If a victim desires notice under this section, the victim shall maintain a current, valid mailing address on file with the commissioner of corrections. The commissioner shall send the notice to the victim's last known address. The victim's address may not be disclosed to the offender or to the offender's attorney. Sec. 12.55.090. Granting of probation. (a) Probation may be granted whether the offense under AS 11 or AS 16 or the crime is punishable by fine or imprisonment or both. If an offense under AS 11 or AS 16 or a crime is punishable by both fine and imprisonment, the court may impose a fine and place the defendant on probation as to imprisonment. Probation may be limited to one or more counts or indictments, but, in the absence of express limitation, shall extend to the entire sentence and judgment. (b) Except as otherwise provided in (f) of this section, the court may revoke or modify any condition of probation, change the period of probation, or terminate probation and discharge the defendant from probation. (c) The period of probation, together with any extension, may not exceed (1) 15 years for a felony sex offense; (2) 10 years for an unclassified felony under AS 11 not listed in (1) of this subsection; (3) five years for a felony offense not listed in (1) or (2) of this subsection; (4) three years for a misdemeanor offense (A) under AS 11.41; (B) that is a crime involving domestic violence; or (C) that is a sex offense, as that term is defined in AS 12.63.100; (5) two years for a misdemeanor offense under AS 28.35.030 or 28.35.032, if the person has previously been convicted of an offense under AS 28.35.030 or 28.35.032, or a similar law or ordinance of this or another jurisdiction; or (6) one year for an offense not listed in (1) — (5) of this subsection. (f) Unless the defendant and the prosecuting authority agree at the probation revocation proceeding or other proceeding related to a probation violation, the person qualifies for a reduction under AS 33.05.020(h), or a probation officer recommends to the court that probation be terminated and the defendant be discharged from probation under (g) of this section or AS 33.05.040, the court may not reduce the specific period of probation or the specific term of suspended incarceration except by the amount of incarceration imposed for a probation violation, if (1) the sentence was imposed in accordance with a plea agreement under Rule 11, Alaska Rules of Criminal Procedure; and (2) the agreement required a specific period of probation or a specific term of suspended incarceration. (g) A probation officer shall recommend to the court that probation be terminated and a defendant be discharged from probation if the defendant (1) has completed at least (A) two years on probation if the person was convicted of a class A or class B felony that is not a crime under (5) of this subsection; or (B) 18 months on probation if the person was convicted of a crime that is not a crime (i) under (A) of this paragraph; or (ii) under (5) of this subsection; (2) has completed all treatment programs required as a condition of probation; (3) has not been found in violation of conditions of probation by the court for the period specified in (1) of this subsection; (4) is currently in compliance with all conditions of probation for all of the cases for which the person is on probation; and (5) has not been convicted of an unclassified felony offense, a sexual felony as defined in AS 12.55.185, or a crime involving domestic violence as defined in AS 18.66.990. (h) Before a court may terminate probation and discharge the defendant before the period of probation for the offense has been completed under (g) of this section, the court shall allow victims to comment in writing to the court or allow a victim to give sworn testimony or make an unsworn oral presentation at a hearing held to determine whether to reduce the period of probation or terminate probation and discharge the defendant. (i) If a probation officer recommends to the court that probation be terminated and a defendant be discharged from probation under (g) of this section, and if the victim has earlier requested to be notified, the Department of Corrections shall send the victim notice of the recommendation under (g) of this section and inform the victim of the victim's rights under this section, the deadline for receipt of written comments, the hearing date, and the court's address. (j) If the victim submits written comments directly to the court and the parties do not otherwise have the victim statements, the court shall distribute the statements to the parties. (k) In deciding whether to terminate probation and discharge the defendant from probation under (g) of this section, the court shall consider the victim's comments, testimony, or unsworn oral presentation, when relevant, and any response by the prosecuting attorney and defendant. (l) If a victim desires notice under this section, the victim shall maintain a current, valid mailing address on file with the commissioner of corrections. The commissioner shall send the notice to the victim's last known address. The victim's address may not be disclosed to the defendant or the defendant's attorney. (m) The court shall discharge the defendant from probation upon completion of the period of probation. The period of probation is considered to be completed when the combination of time served and credits earned under AS 33.05.020 is equal to the probation period imposed, or after the probationer has been discharged from probation under this section. (n) In this section, "sex offense" has the meaning given in AS 12.63.100. Sec. 12.55.100. Conditions of probation. (a) While on probation and among the conditions of probation, the defendant (1) shall be required to obey all state, federal, and local laws or ordinances, and any court orders applicable to the probationer; and (2) may be required (A) to pay a fine in one or several sums; (B) to make restitution or reparation to aggrieved parties for actual damages or loss caused by the crime for which conviction was had, including compensation to a victim that is a nonprofit organization for the value of labor or goods provided by volunteers if the labor or goods were necessary to alleviate or mitigate the effects of the defendant's crime; when determining the amount of actual damages or loss under this subparagraph, the court shall value property as the market value of the property at the time and place of the crime or, if the market value cannot reasonably be ascertained, the cost of the replacement of the property within a reasonable time after the crime; (C) to provide for the support of any persons for whose support the defendant is legally responsible; (D) to perform community work in accordance with AS 12.55.055; (E) to participate in or comply with the treatment plan of an inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation program specified by either the court or the defendant's probation officer that is related to the defendant's offense or to the defendant's rehabilitation; (F) to satisfy the screening, evaluation, referral, and program requirements of an agency authorized by the court to make referrals for rehabilitative treatment or to provide rehabilitative treatment; (G) to comply with a program established under AS 47.38.020; and (H) to comply with the sanctions imposed by the defendant's probation officer under AS 33.05.020(g). (b) The defendant's liability for a fine or other punishment imposed as to which probation is granted shall be fully discharged by the fulfillment of the terms and conditions of probation. (c) A program of inpatient treatment may be required by the authorized agency under (a)(2)(F) of this section only if authorized in the judgment, and may not exceed the maximum term of inpatient treatment specified in the judgment. A person who has been referred for inpatient treatment may make a written request to the sentencing court asking the court to review the referral. The request for review shall be made within seven days after the agency's referral, and shall specifically set out the grounds on which the request for review is based. The court may order a hearing on the request for review. (d) If the court orders probation for a defendant convicted of an offense requiring the state to collect a blood sample, oral sample, or both, from the defendant for the deoxyribonucleic acid identification registration system under AS 44.41.035, the court shall order the defendant, as a condition of probation, to submit to the collection of (e) In addition to other conditions imposed on the defendant, while on probation and as a condition of probation (1) for a sex offense, as described in AS 12.63.100, the defendant (A) shall be required to submit to regular periodic polygraph examinations; (B) may be required to provide each electronic mail address, instant messaging address, and other Internet communication identifier that the defendant uses to the defendant's probation officer; the probation officer shall forward those addresses and identifiers to the Alaska state troopers and to the local law enforcement agency; (2) if the defendant was convicted of a violation of AS 11.41.434 — 11.41.455, AS 11.61.125 — 11.61.128, or a similar offense in another jurisdiction, the defendant may be required to refrain from (A) using or creating an Internet site; (B) communicating with children under 16 years of age; (C) possessing or using a computer; or (D) residing within 500 feet of school grounds; in this subparagraph, "school grounds" has the meaning given in AS 11.71.900. (f) While on probation and as a special condition of probation for an offense where the aggravating factor provided in AS 12.55.155(c)(29) has been proven or admitted, the court shall require that the defendant submit to electronic monitoring. Electronic monitoring under this subsection must provide for monitoring of the defendant's location and movements by Global Positioning System technology. The court shall require a defendant serving a period of probation with electronic monitoring as provided under this subsection to pay all or a portion of the costs of the electronic monitoring, but only if the defendant has sufficient financial resources to pay the costs or a portion of the costs. A defendant subject to electronic monitoring under this subsection is not entitled to a credit for time served in a correctional facility while the defendant is on probation. In this subsection, "correctional facility" has the meaning given in AS 33.30.901. Sec. 12.55.101. Additional conditions of probation for domestic violence crimes. (a) Before granting probation to a person convicted of a crime involving domestic violence, the court shall consider the safety and protection of the victim and any member of the victim's family. If a person convicted of a crime involving domestic violence is placed on probation, the court may order the conditions authorized in AS 12.55.100 and AS 18.66.100(c)(1) — (7) and (11), and may (1) require the defendant to participate in and complete to the satisfaction of the court one or more programs for the rehabilitation of perpetrators of domestic violence that meet the standards set by, and that are approved by, the Department of Corrections under AS 44.28.020(b), if the program is available in the community where the defendant resides; the court may not order a defendant to participate in or complete a program for the rehabilitation of perpetrators of domestic violence that does not meet the standards set, and that is not approved, by the Department of Corrections under AS 44.28.020(b); (2) require the defendant to refrain from the consumption of alcohol; and (3) impose any other condition necessary to protect the victim and any members of the victim's family, or to rehabilitate the defendant. (b) If the defendant is not in custody, the defendant shall pay the costs of an evaluation or a program of rehabilitation ordered under (a)(1) — (3) of this section. If the defendant is in custody, the responsibility for costs shall be as provided in AS 33.30.028. Sec. 12.55.102. Alcohol-related offenses. (a) The court may order as a condition of probation or generally as part of a sentence that a defendant convicted of an offense involving the use, consumption, or possession of an alcoholic beverage may not operate a motor vehicle during the period of probation unless the vehicle is equipped with a properly functioning, monitored, and maintained ignition interlock device. A condition of probation or sentence imposed under this subsection takes effect after any period of license revocation imposed under AS 28.15.165(d) or 28.15.181(c). (b) The court, in imposing probation or a condition of a sentence under (a) of this section, may allow the defendant limited privileges to drive a motor vehicle without an ignition interlock device if the court determines that the defendant is required as a condition of employment to drive a motor vehicle owned or leased by the defendant's employer and that the defendant's driving will not create substantial danger. If the court imposes probation described by this subsection, the court shall require the defendant to notify the defendant's employer of the probation, and shall require that the defendant, while driving the employer's vehicle, carry a letter from the employer authorizing the defendant to drive that vehicle. (c) A court imposing a condition of probation under this section shall require the surrender of the driver's license and shall issue to the defendant a certificate valid for the duration of the probation or a copy of the defendant's judgment of conviction. The defendant shall pay all costs associated with fulfilling the condition of probation, including installation, repair, and monitoring of an ignition interlock device. (d) The court may include the cost of the ignition interlock device as a part of the fine required to be imposed against the defendant under AS 28.35.030(b) or (n) or 28.35.032(g) or (p). (1) "ignition interlock device" means equipment designed to prevent a motor vehicle from being operated by a person who has consumed an alcoholic beverage, and that has been certified by the commissioner of corrections under AS 33.05.020(c); Sec. 12.55.105. Probation fee. [Repealed, § 4 ch 26 SLA 1989.] Sec. 12.55.110. Notice and grounds for revocation of suspension. (a) When sentence has been suspended, it may not be revoked except for good cause shown. In all proceedings for the revocation of a suspended sentence, the defendant is entitled to reasonable notice and the right to be represented by counsel. (b) Good cause justifying the revocation of a suspended sentence is established if the defendant has violated an order of the court to participate in or comply with the treatment plan of a rehabilitation program under AS 12.55.015(a)(10). (c) If a defendant is serving a period of probation for an offense, the court may find that the defendant has committed a technical violation of probation. If the court finds that a defendant has committed a technical violation of probation that does not include absconding, the court may reinstate the term of probation with appropriate conditions or impose a sentence of imprisonment of not more than (1) three days for the first probation revocation; (2) five days for the second probation revocation; (3) 10 days for the third probation revocation; or (4) the remainder of the suspended portion of the sentence for a fourth or subsequent probation revocation. (d) If the court revokes a person's probation for absconding, the court may impose a period of imprisonment not to exceed 30 days. (e) The limits set out in this section on the length of imprisonment for a revocation do not apply if a probationer is enrolled in a program established under AS 33.05.020(f). (f) If the defendant is ordered to complete treatment under AS 12.55.100(a)(2)(E) and does not comply with the court's order, the court may order the defendant to show cause why the defendant should not be sentenced to imprisonment for noncompletion of treatment and may revoke the suspended sentence subject to the limits established in this section. In a contempt or probation revocation proceeding brought as a result of failure to complete treatment, it is an affirmative defense that the defendant was unable to afford the cost of treatment or secure a place in a free treatment program, despite having made continuing good faith efforts. If the court finds that the defendant was unable to complete treatment despite having made continuing good faith efforts, the defendant may not be imprisoned solely because of an inability to pay. If the court does not find that the noncompletion of treatment was attributable to the defendant's inability to pay, the court may order the defendant imprisoned subject to the limits established in this section. (g) Notwithstanding (c) of this section, a court may not find a technical violation under this section if a person convicted of a sex offense, as described in AS 12.63.100, violates a condition of probation provided in AS 12.55.100(e). (1) "absconding" means failing to report within five working days after release from custody under AS 33.20.030 or failing to report for a scheduled meeting with a probation officer, as ordered by the court or as directed by the probation officer, and failing to make contact with the probation officer within 30 days following the missed meeting; (2) "technical violation" means a violation of the conditions of probation that does not constitute (A) a new criminal offense; (B) failing to complete sex offender treatment; or (C) failing to complete an intervention program for batterers. Sec. 12.55.115. Fixing eligibility for discretionary parole at sentencing. The court may, as part of a sentence of imprisonment, further restrict the eligibility of a prisoner for discretionary parole for a term greater than that required under AS 33.16.090 and 33.16.100. Sec. 12.55.120. Appeal of sentence. (a) A sentence of imprisonment lawfully imposed by the superior court for a term or for aggregate terms exceeding two years of unsuspended incarceration for a felony offense or exceeding 120 days for a misdemeanor offense may be appealed to the court of appeals by the defendant on the ground that the sentence is excessive, unless the sentence was imposed in accordance with a plea agreement under the applicable Alaska Rules of Criminal Procedure and that agreement provided for imposition of a specific sentence or a sentence equal to or less than a specified maximum sentence. If the superior court imposed a sentence in accordance with a plea agreement that provided for a minimum sentence, the defendant may appeal only that portion of the sentence that exceeds the minimum sentence provided for in the plea agreement and that exceeds two years of unsuspended incarceration for a felony offense or 120 days of unsuspended incarceration for a misdemeanor offense. By appealing a sentence under this section, the defendant waives the right to plead that by a revision of the sentence resulting from the appeal the defendant has been twice placed in jeopardy for the same offense. (b) A sentence of imprisonment lawfully imposed by the superior court may be appealed to the court of appeals by the state on the ground that the sentence is too lenient; however, when a sentence is appealed by the state and the defendant has not appealed the sentence, the court is not authorized to increase the sentence but may express its approval or disapproval of the sentence and its reasons in a written opinion. (c) A sentence appeal under this section does not confer or enlarge the right to bail pending appeal. When the defendant, in the prosecution of a regular appeal, urges excessiveness of the sentence as an additional ground for appeal, the defendant's right to bail pending appeal is governed by the relevant statutes and the rules of the court. (d) A sentence of imprisonment lawfully imposed by the district court for a term or for aggregate terms exceeding 120 days of unsuspended incarceration may be appealed to the superior court by the defendant on the ground that the sentence is excessive, unless the sentence was imposed in accordance with a plea agreement under the applicable Alaska Rules of Criminal Procedure and that agreement provided for imposition of a specific sentence or a sentence equal to or less than a specified maximum sentence. If the district court imposed a sentence in accordance with a plea agreement that provided for a minimum sentence, the defendant may appeal only that portion of the sentence that exceeds the minimum sentence provided for in the plea agreement and that exceeds 120 days of unsuspended incarceration. By appealing a sentence under this section, the defendant waives the right to plead that by a revision of the sentence resulting from the appeal the defendant has been twice placed in jeopardy for the same offense. A sentence of imprisonment lawfully imposed by the district court may be appealed to the superior court by the state on the ground that the sentence is too lenient; however, when a sentence is appealed by the state, the court may not increase the sentence but may express its approval or disapproval of the sentence and its reasons in a written opinion. (e) A sentence within an applicable presumptive range set out in AS 12.55.125 or a consecutive or partially consecutive sentence imposed in accordance with the minimum sentences set out in AS 12.55.127 may not be appealed to the court of appeals under this section or AS 22.07.020 on the ground that the sentence is excessive. However, the sentence may be reviewed by an appellate court on the ground that it is excessive through a petition filed under rules adopted by the supreme court. (f) The victim of the crime for which a defendant has been convicted and sentenced may file a petition for review in an appellate court of a sentence that is below the sentencing range for the crime. Sec. 12.55.125. Sentences of imprisonment for felonies. (a) A defendant convicted of murder in the first degree or murder of an unborn child under AS 11.41.150(a)(1) shall be sentenced to a definite term of imprisonment of at least 30 years but not more than 99 years. A defendant convicted of murder in the first degree shall be sentenced to a mandatory term of imprisonment of 99 years when (1) the defendant is convicted of the murder of a uniformed or otherwise clearly identified peace officer, firefighter, or correctional employee who was engaged in the performance of official duties at the time of the murder; (2) the defendant has been previously convicted of (A) murder in the first degree under AS 11.41.100 or former AS 11.15.010 or 11.15.020; (B) murder in the second degree under AS 11.41.110 or former AS 11.15.030; or (C) homicide under the laws of another jurisdiction when the offense of which the defendant was convicted contains elements similar to first degree murder under AS 11.41.100 or second degree murder under AS 11.41.110; (3) the defendant subjected the murder victim to substantial physical torture; (4) the defendant is convicted of the murder of and personally caused the death of a person, other than a participant, during a robbery; or (5) the defendant is a peace officer who used the officer's authority as a peace officer to facilitate the murder. (b) A defendant convicted of attempted murder in the first degree, solicitation to commit murder in the first degree, conspiracy to commit murder in the first degree, kidnapping, or misconduct involving a controlled substance in the first degree shall be sentenced to a definite term of imprisonment of at least five years but not more than 99 years.

Sec. 12.60.190. Arrest on failure to disperse and commanding aid. If the persons assembled do not immediately disperse, the district judges, magistrates, and officers shall arrest them. Any two of the officers mentioned in AS 12.60.180 may command the aid of a sufficient number of persons, armed or otherwise, as may be necessary, and may proceed in the manner as in their judgment may be most expedient to disperse the assembly and arrest the offenders. Sec. 12.60.200. Person refusing to aid officers as rioter. [Repealed, § 21 ch 166 SLA 1978.] Sec. 12.60.210. Officer failing to act is guilty of misdemeanor. If a district judge, magistrate, or officer having notice of an unlawful or riotous assembly, mentioned in AS 12.60.180, neglects to proceed to the place of assembly, or as near as can be done with safety, and to exercise the authority with which invested for suppressing the same and arresting the offenders, that person is guilty of a misdemeanor. Sec. 12.60.220. Guilt where death ensues. If, in the effort to suppress or disperse any unlawful or riotous assembly, or to arrest or detain any of the persons engaged in the assembly, any of the rioters or other persons then present as spectators or otherwise are killed or wounded, the district judge, magistrate, and officers and persons acting in their aid are guiltless of the killing or wounding. However, if a district judge, magistrate, or officer or person acting in their aid is killed or wounded, all the persons unlawfully engaged in the assembly are guilty of the killing or wounding. Article 4. Rewards. Sec. 12.60.230. Reward for information leading to conviction of certain persons.

(b) Law enforcement agencies, prosecutors, corrections agencies, social services agencies, and the courts shall make every reasonable effort to ensure that victims of crimes have the rights set out in (a) of this section. However, a failure to ensure these rights does not give rise to a separate cause of action against law enforcement agencies, other agencies of the state, or a political subdivision of the state. Sec. 12.61.015. Duties of prosecuting attorney. (a) If a victim of a felony or a crime involving domestic violence requests, the prosecuting attorney shall make a reasonable effort to (1) confer with the person against whom the offense has been perpetrated about that person's testimony before the defendant's trial; (2) in a manner reasonably calculated to give prompt actual notice, notify the victim (A) of the defendant's conviction and the crimes of which the defendant was convicted; (B) of the victim's right in a case that is a felony to make a written or oral statement for use in preparation of the defendant's presentence report, and of the victim's right to appear personally at the defendant's sentencing hearing to present a written statement and to give sworn testimony or an unsworn oral presentation; (C) of the address and telephone number of the office that will prepare the presentence report; and (D) of the time and place of the sentencing proceeding; (3) notify the victim in writing of the final disposition of the case within 30 days after final disposition of the case; (4) confer with the victim concerning a proposed plea agreement before entering into an agreement; (5) inform the victim of a pending motion that may substantially delay the prosecution and inform the court of the victim's position on the motion; in this paragraph, a "substantial delay" is (A) for a misdemeanor, a delay of one month or longer; (B) for a felony, a delay of two months or longer; and (C) for an appeal, a delay of six months or longer.

(c) The state and the prosecuting attorney may not be held liable in damages for any failure to comply with the requirements of this section. Sec. 12.61.016. Duties of agency investigating a sexual offense. A law enforcement agency investigating an offense under AS 11.41.410 - 11.41.470 may not disclose information related to the investigation to an employer of the victim unless (1) the victim expressly permits the disclosure; or (2) the agency determines the disclosure is necessary to investigate or prevent a crime. Sec. 12.61.017. Interference by victim's employer. (a) An employer may not penalize or threaten to penalize a victim of an offense because the victim (1) is subpoenaed or requested by the prosecuting attorney to attend a court proceeding for the purpose of giving testimony; or (2) reports the offense to a law enforcement agency or participates in the investigation of the offense by a law enforcement agency. (b) A person who violates (a) of this section is guilty of a violation. (c) A victim who suffers a pecuniary loss as a result of an employer's act prohibited by this section may bring a civil action to recover actual damages and punitive damages of three times the actual damages sustained. (d) In this section, "penalize" means to take action affecting the employment status, wages, and benefits payable to the victim, including (1) demotion or suspension; (2) dismissal from employment; and (3) loss of pay or benefits, except pay and benefits that are directly attributable to the victim's absence from employment to (A) attend the court proceeding; (B) report the offense to a law enforcement agency; (C) participate in a law enforcement agency investigation of the offense. Sec. 12.61.020. Money received as the result of the commission of a crime. (a) Every person contracting with an offender with respect to the reenactment of the offender's crime by way of a movie, book, magazine article, radio or television presentation, or live entertainment of any kind, or to the expression of the offender's thoughts, feelings, opinions, or emotions regarding the crime, shall pay to the state any money that would otherwise be owing to the offender. (b) A claim by a victim arising out of an order of restitution under AS 12.55.045, or a judgment in a civil action against an offender for damages resulting from a crime is a superior claim for money that would otherwise be paid to the state under (a) of this section. (c) Notwithstanding other statutory limitations, a civil action by a victim against an offender for damages resulting from the commission of the crime must be commenced within 10 years of the date of the crime or the date of the discovery of the perpetrator of the crime if the perpetrator is unknown on the date of the commission of the crime. (d) For the purposes of this section, if the offender has not been convicted, proof of the commission of a crime must be established by a preponderance of the evidence. (1) "offender" means a person who has committed a crime in this state, whether or not the person has been convicted of the crime, or that person's representative or assignee; If more than one person who qualifies as a victim under AS 12.55.185 makes a request under AS 12.61.010 — 12.61.030, the prosecuting attorney shall designate one person for purposes of receiving the notice required and exercising the rights granted under AS 12.61.010 — 12.61.030. Sec. 12.61.050. Automated victim notification system. (a) The Department of Corrections shall establish an automated victim notification system that automatically provides crime victims with notice by telephone when there is a change in the status of their offender. The system must also allow crime victims to initiate telephone calls to the system to receive the latest status report for their offender. An automated victim notification system established under this section satisfies the duty of a state agency to notify a crime victim of the change in status of an offender. The failure of a system to provide notice to a crime victim does not give rise to a separate cause of action by the crime victim against the state, an agency of the state, or a municipality, or the officers, employees, or contractors of the state, agency of the state, or municipality. (b) Each department and each municipality shall cooperate with the Department of Corrections in establishing and maintaining an automated victim notification system required under this section. Article 2. Victim and Witness Information Confidentiality. The purpose of AS 12.61.100 — 12.61.150 is to protect victims of and witnesses to crime from risk of harassment, intimidation, and unwarranted invasion of privacy by prohibiting the unnecessary disclosure of their addresses and telephone numbers. Sec. 12.61.110. Confidentiality of victim and witness addresses and telephone numbers. The residence and business addresses and telephone numbers of a victim of a crime or witness to a crime are confidential. A report, paper, picture, photograph, court file, or other document that relates to a crime and contains the residence or business address or telephone number of a victim or witness, and that is in the custody or possession of a public officer or employee, may not be made available for public inspection unless the residence and business addresses and telephone numbers of all victims and witnesses have been deleted. Sec. 12.61.120. Disclosure to defense; contacts with victims and witnesses. (a) The prosecution in a criminal case may not be required to furnish to the defendant personally the address or telephone number of a victim or witness absent a showing of good cause as determined by the court. Except as provided in (b) of this section, good cause exists when the defendant is proceeding without counsel. When a defendant is represented by counsel, the address and telephone number of a victim or witness may be disclosed to the defendant's counsel, but the court shall order the defendant's counsel to not disclose the information to the defendant. (b) If the defendant is proceeding without counsel in a case involving a charged violation of AS 11.41, AS 11.46.300 — 11.46.330, AS 11.56.740, 11.56.807, 11.56.810, AS 11.61.190 — 11.61.210, or a crime involving domestic violence and the court finds that the defendant may pose a continuing threat to the victim of or witness to the offense charged, the court shall protect the address and telephone number of the victim or witness by providing the information only to a person specified by the court or by imposing other restrictions that the court considers necessary. When an address or telephone number is released to a person specified by the court under this subsection, that person, who shall be ordered not to disclose the information to the defendant, shall contact the victim or witness on behalf of the defendant, and the defendant shall meet or speak with the victim or witness only in the presence of that person. (c) If a defendant or a person acting on behalf of a defendant contacts the victim of an offense with which the defendant is or could be charged, the person shall clearly inform the victim (1) of the person's identity and specific association with the defendant; (2) that the victim does not have to talk to the person unless the victim wishes; and (3) that the victim may have a prosecuting attorney or other person present during an interview. (d) If a defendant or a person acting on behalf of a defendant wishes to make a recording of statements of the victim of an offense with which the defendant is or could be charged in this or another jurisdiction, or of a witness, the person shall, before recording begins, obtain the consent of the victim or witness to record the statement by clearly informing the victim or witness (1) of the information set out in (c) of this section, (2) that the statement will be recorded if the victim or witness consents, and (3) that the victim or witness may obtain a transcript or other copy of the recorded statement upon request. When recording begins, the person making the recording shall indicate in the recording that the victim or witness has been informed as required by this subsection, and the victim or witness shall state in the recording that consent of the victim or witness to the recording has been given. (e) If a victim or witness requests a transcript or other copy of a recorded statement taken under (d) of this section, the defense shall prepare the transcript or other copy and provide it to the person whose statement was recorded. (f) In this section, "recording" means capturing a statement of a person, whether by magnetic tape or other electronic or electromagnetic means. Sec. 12.61.125. Victims and witnesses of sexual offenses. (a) The defendant accused of a sexual offense, the defendant's counsel, or an investigator or other person acting on behalf of the defendant, may not (1) notwithstanding AS 12.61.120, contact the victim of the offense or a witness to the offense if the victim or witness, or the parent or guardian of the victim or witness if the victim or witness is a minor, has informed the defendant or the defendant's counsel in writing or in person that the victim or witness does not wish to be contacted by the defense; a victim or witness who has not informed the defendant or the defendant's counsel in writing or in person that the victim does not wish to be contacted by the defense is entitled to rights as provided in AS 12.61.120; (2) obtain a statement from the victim of the offense or a witness to the offense, unless, (A) if the statement is taken as a recording, the recording is taken in compliance with AS 12.61.120, and written authorization is first obtained from the victim or witness, or from the parent or guardian of the victim or witness if the victim or witness is a minor; the written authorization must state that the victim or witness is aware that there is no legal requirement that the victim or witness talk to the defense; or (B) if the statement is not taken as a recording, written authorization is first obtained from the victim or witness, or from the parent or guardian of the victim or witness if the victim or witness is a minor; the written authorization must state that the victim or witness is aware that there is no legal requirement that the victim or witness talk to the defense; a victim or witness making a statement under this subparagraph remains entitled to rights as provided in AS 12.61.120. (b) A defendant who is the parent or guardian of a minor victim or witness may not provide the authorization required under (a) of the section. (c) If an attorney, or a person acting on behalf of the defendant for an attorney, violates this section, the court shall refer the violation to the Disciplinary Board of the Alaska Bar Association as a grievance. (1) "recording" has the meaning given in AS 12.61.120; (2) "sexual offense" means a violation of AS 11.41.410 — 11.41.470. Sec. 12.61.127. Inadmissibility of statements taken in violation of AS 12.61.120 or 12.61.125. A statement obtained from a victim or witness in violation of AS 12.61.120 or 12.61.125 is presumed inadmissible in a prosecution of the defendant. To overcome the presumption of inadmissibility, the defendant must prove by clear and convincing evidence that (1) the statement is reliable; (2) similar evidence is unavailable from any other source; and (3) failure to introduce the statement would substantially undermine the reliability of the fact-finding process and result in manifest injustice. Sec. 12.61.130. Disclosure during court proceedings. (a) During a trial or hearing related to a criminal prosecution, the residence and business addresses and telephone numbers of a victim of or witness to the charged offense may not be disclosed in open court, and a victim or witness may not be required to provide the addresses or telephone numbers in response to questioning, unless the court determines that the information is necessary and relevant to the facts of the case. The burden to establish the need and relevance for disclosure is on the party seeking disclosure. Before ordering disclosure, the court shall take appropriate measures to minimize the risk of personal harm to the victim or witness that would result from the disclosure. (b) The address or telephone number of a victim of or witness to a charged offense may not be placed in the court file or court documents relating to that offense except when (1) the address is used to identify the place of the crime; or (2) the address or telephone number is contained in a transcript of a court proceeding and disclosure of the address or telephone number was ordered under (a) of this section. Sec. 12.61.140. Disclosure of victim's name. (a) The portion of the records of a court or law enforcement agency that contains the name of the victim of an offense under AS 11.41.300(a)(1)(C) or 11.41.410 — 11.41.460 (1) shall be withheld from public inspection, except with the consent of the court in which the case is or would be prosecuted; and (2) is not a public record under AS 40.25.110 — 40.25.125. (b) In all written court records open to public inspection, the name of the victim of an offense under AS 11.41.300(a)(1)(C) or 11.41.410 — 11.41.460 may not appear. Instead, the victim's initials shall be used. However, a sealed record containing the victim's name shall be kept by the court in order to ensure that a defendant is not charged twice for the same offense. Sec. 12.61.150. Public and media access. AS 12.61.100 — 12.61.150 may not be construed to require the court to exclude the public from any stage of the criminal proceeding or to interfere with the right of news media to report information lawfully obtained. (2) "person acting on behalf of a defendant" includes the defendant's attorney, an agent of the defendant or the defendant's attorney, or a person specified by the court under AS 12.61.120(b) or an agent of that person, but does not include the defendant; (3) "victim" has the meaning given in AS 12.55.185; (4) "witness" means a person contacted in connection with a criminal case because the person may have knowledge or information about the criminal case.

Sec. 12.70.190. Inquiry into guilt or innocence of accused. The guilt or innocence of the accused as to the crime of which the accused is charged may not be inquired into by the governor in any proceeding after the demand for extradition, accompanied by a charge of crime in legal form as provided in this chapter, has been presented to the governor, except as it may be involved in identifying the person held as the person charged with the crime.

Scope of post-conviction relief. A person who has been convicted of, or sentenced for, a crime may institute a proceeding for post-conviction relief if the person claims (1) that the conviction or the sentence was in violation of the Constitution of the United States or the constitution or laws of this state; (2) that the court was without jurisdiction to impose sentence; (3) that a prior conviction has been set aside and the prior conviction was used as a statutorily required enhancement of the sentence imposed; (4) that there exists evidence of material facts, not previously presented and heard by the court, that requires vacation of the conviction or sentence in the interest of justice; if the person seeks post-conviction DNA testing to support a claim under this paragraph, the person's exclusive method for obtaining that testing is an application under AS 12.73; (5) that the person's sentence has expired, or the person's probation, parole, or conditional release has been unlawfully revoked, or the person is otherwise unlawfully held in custody or other restraint; (6) that the conviction or sentence is otherwise subject to collateral attack upon any ground or alleged error previously available under the common law, statutory law, or other writ, motion, petition, proceeding, or remedy; (7) that (A) there has been a significant change in law, whether substantive or procedural, applied in the process leading to the person's conviction or sentence; (B) the change in the law was not reasonably foreseeable by a judge or a competent attorney; (C) it is appropriate to retroactively apply the change in law because the change requires observance of procedures without which the likelihood of an accurate conviction is seriously diminished; and (D) the failure to retroactively apply the change in law would result in a fundamental miscarriage of justice, which is established by demonstrating that, had the changed law been in effect at the time of the applicant's trial, a reasonable trier of fact would have a reasonable doubt as to the guilt of the applicant; (8) that, after the imposition of sentence, the applicant seeks to withdraw a plea of guilty or nolo contendere in order to correct manifest injustice under the Alaska Rules of Criminal Procedure; or (9) that the applicant was not afforded effective assistance of counsel at trial or on direct appeal. Sec. 12.72.020. Limitations on applications for post-conviction relief.

Sec. 12.72.025. Applications based on claim of ineffective assistance of counsel.

The court shall order post-conviction DNA testing of specific evidence if (1) the applicant was convicted of a felony under AS 11.41; (2) the applicant and, if represented, the applicant's attorney, have submitted the affidavits required by AS 12.73.010(b); (3) the applicant did not admit or concede guilt under oath in an official proceeding for the offense that was the basis of the conviction or a lesser included offense, except that the court, in the interest of justice, may waive this requirement; for the purposes of this paragraph, the entry of a guilty or nolo contendere plea is not an admission or concession of guilt; (4) the evidence either (A) was not subjected to DNA testing; or (B) was previously subjected to DNA testing, and (i) the applicant is requesting DNA testing using a method or technology that is substantially more probative than the previous DNA testing; or (ii) the court determines that granting the application is in the best interest of justice; (5) the evidence to be tested has been subject to a chain of custody and retained under conditions that ensure that the evidence has not been substituted, contaminated, or altered in any manner material to the proposed DNA testing; (6) the proposed DNA testing is reasonable in scope, uses scientifically sound methods, and is consistent with accepted forensic practices; (7) the applicant identifies a theory of defense that would establish the applicant's innocence; (8) the applicant was convicted after a trial and the identity of the perpetrator was a disputed issue in the trial; (9) the proposed DNA testing of the specific evidence may produce new material evidence that would (A) support the theory of defense described in (7) of this section; and (B) raise a reasonable probability that the applicant did not commit the offense; (10) the applicant consents to provide a DNA sample for purposes of comparison and to entry of the results into the DNA identification registration system under AS 44.41.035 and into any other law enforcement database; and (11) the application is timely as described in AS 12.73.040. Sec. 12.73.030. Summary dismissal and response. (a) If an application under AS 12.73.010(a) does not set out the specific facts necessary for the court to make the findings required under AS 12.73.020 or does not comply with AS 12.73.010(b), the court shall deny the application without further proceedings. (b) If an application filed under AS 12.73.010(a) is not denied under (a) of this section, the prosecuting authority shall file a response within 45 days after service of the application. The court shall conduct an evidentiary hearing to resolve any disputed facts. Sec. 12.73.040. Timeliness. In determining whether an application is timely under AS 12.73.020(11), there is a presumption of (1) timeliness if the application is filed before three years after the date of conviction; this presumption may be rebutted if the court finds that the application is based solely upon information used in a previously denied application; and (2) untimeliness if the application is filed three years or more after conviction; this presumption may be rebutted if the court finds good cause for filing three years or more after conviction. (a) If the court grants the application and DNA samples for comparison purposes are required, samples taken from the applicant or a prisoner must be collected at a law enforcement or correctional facility. If the DNA sample is being collected from a person other than the applicant or a prisoner, the sample must be taken by a law enforcement officer or other authorized person at a location that is convenient for the person from whom the sample is being collected and the person collecting the sample. (b) The court may not order that a person other than the applicant provide a DNA sample for comparison purposes unless that person is first afforded notice and an opportunity to be heard by the court. The results of DNA testing of a sample provided by a person other than the applicant may not be made available to the DNA identification registration system under AS 44.41.035 or to any other law enforcement database unless specifically ordered by the court. (c) DNA testing ordered under this section shall be performed at the state's expense and at a laboratory operated or approved by the Department of Public Safety. If, after completion of the testing ordered under this section, an applicant requests additional testing, any additional testing ordered by the court at the applicant's request must be at the applicant's expense. If the court orders additional testing by another laboratory at the request of the applicant, the laboratory operated or approved by the Department of Public Safety shall preserve a portion of the evidence for later testing. A laboratory selected by the applicant to perform testing under this section must comply with the quality assurance standards for DNA adopted by the United States Department of Justice and be accredited by the American Society of Crime Laboratory Directors Laboratory Accreditation Board or accepted as equivalent by the Department of Public Safety. (d) Except as provided in (b) of this section, the results of testing ordered under this section shall be entered into the DNA identification registration system under AS 44.41.035 and into any other law enforcement database available to the Department of Public Safety. Sec. 12.73.060. Post-conviction testing by stipulation. The provisions of this chapter do not prohibit an applicant and the prosecuting authority from agreeing to conduct post-conviction DNA testing without the person's filing an application under this chapter. The parties may also stipulate to the payment of costs for the DNA testing and other costs associated with the terms of the agreement. (2) "innocence" means that the applicant was not a perpetrator of or an accomplice to the offense or lesser included offense for which the applicant was convicted; (4) "unconditionally discharged" means that a defendant is released from all disability arising under a sentence, including probation and parole. Chapter 75. Habeas Corpus. Sec. 12.75.010. Persons entitled to prosecute writ. A person imprisoned or otherwise restrained of liberty under any pretense whatsoever, except in the cases specified in AS 12.75.020, may prosecute a writ of habeas corpus to inquire into the cause of the imprisonment or restraint, and, if illegal, to be released from custody or to be granted another remedy as law and justice require. Procedure may be as prescribed in the Rules of Civil Procedure. Sec. 12.75.020. Persons not entitled to prosecute writ. A person properly imprisoned or restrained by virtue of the legal judgment of a competent tribunal of civil or criminal jurisdiction, or by virtue of an execution regularly and lawfully issued upon that judgment or decree shall not be allowed to prosecute the writ. Sec. 12.75.030. Offense not bailable. When it appears that the cause or offense for which the person prosecuting the writ is imprisoned or restrained is not bailable, the production of the party may be dispensed with and the writ issued accordingly. Sec. 12.75.040. Production of body. The person on whom a writ is served shall bring the body of the person in custody or under restraint, according to the command of the writ, except in the cases provided in AS 12.75.050. Sec. 12.75.050. Hearing without production of person. When, from the sickness or infirmity of the person directed to be produced, that person cannot without danger be brought before the court, the person in whose custody or power that person is may state that fact in the return to the writ. If the court is satisfied of the truth of the return and the return is otherwise sufficient, the court shall proceed to decide on the return and to dispose of the matter as if the party had been produced. Sec. 12.75.060. Proceedings on disobedience of writ. If the person upon whom the writ is served refuses or neglects to obey it within the time required, and no sufficient excuse is shown, it is the duty of the court before whom the writ is returnable, upon due proof of service, to immediately issue a warrant against that person, directed to a peace officer commanding the officer to immediately apprehend and bring the person before the court. Upon that person being brought before the court, the court shall commit that person to custody until the person makes return to the writ and complies with any order that may be made. Sec. 12.75.070. Precept to peace officer. A court that issues a writ without requiring the production of the person or that issues a warrant may also, at any time before final decision, issue a precept to the peace officer to whom the writ or warrant is directed commanding the officer to immediately bring the person for whose benefit the writ was allowed before the court. That person shall remain in the custody of the peace officer until discharged, remanded, or the matter is otherwise disposed of as law and justice require. Sec. 12.75.080. Discharge of party. If no legal cause is shown for the imprisonment or restraint, or for its continuation, the court shall discharge the party from the custody or restraint under which the party is held or grant any other appropriate remedy. Sec. 12.75.090. Remand of party legally detained. The court shall remand the party if it appears that the party is legally detained in custody. Sec. 12.75.100. Remedy of person in custody by virtue of civil process. If it appears on the return of the writ that the prisoner is in custody by virtue of an order or civil process of a court legally constituted, or issued by an officer in the course of judicial proceedings before the officer, authorized by law, the prisoner shall be discharged or granted any other appropriate remedy in any of the following cases: (1) when the jurisdiction of the court or officer has been exceeded, either as to matter, place, sum, or person; (2) when, though the original imprisonment was lawful, yet by some act, omission, or event that has taken place afterwards, the party has become entitled to a discharge or other remedy; (3) when the order or process is defective in some matter of substance required by law, rendering the process void; (4) when the order or process, though in proper form, has been issued in a case not allowed by law; (5) when the person having the custody of the prisoner under the order or process is not the person empowered by law to detain the prisoner; or (6) when the order or process is not authorized by a judgment of a court or by a provision of law. Sec. 12.75.110. Limitation on scope of court's inquiry. No court or judge, on the return of a writ of habeas corpus, may inquire into the legality or justice of any order, judgment, or process specified in AS 12.75.020 or into the justice, propriety, or legality of a commitment for a contempt made by a court, officer, or body, according to law, and charged in the commitment, as provided by law. Sec. 12.75.120. Proceedings where commitment irregular. If it appears by the testimony offered with the return, or upon the hearing that the party is probably guilty of a criminal offense, the court, although the commitment is irregular, shall immediately remand the party to the custody of the proper person. Sec. 12.75.130. Custody of party pending judgment. Until judgment is given upon the return, the party may either be committed to the custody of a peace officer or placed in the officer's care or under such custody as the party's age or circumstances require. Sec. 12.75.140. Admission to bail. A person prosecuting a writ of habeas corpus may, at any time after the writ is allowed, be admitted to bail by the court allowing the writ, or by another judge or magistrate designated by that court or judge, pending the hearing upon the writ and the final order of the court and, in case of appeal, during the pendency of the appeal and until the final order of the appellate court. The bail shall be by written undertaking and executed as bail upon arrest, and the undertaking shall be conditioned that the person so admitted to bail shall appear in the designated court or before the designated judge or magistrate whenever required, and shall at all times be amenable to the order or process of that court, judge, or magistrate, and that if the person fails to perform either of those conditions, the surety or sureties on the undertaking will pay to the state the sum in which that person is so admitted to bail. Sec. 12.75.150. Effect of admitting to bail. The admitting to bail of a person prosecuting a writ of habeas corpus does not in any manner affect the writ or other proceedings or the full right of that person to have the cause and legality of the person's imprisonment inquired into and determined both in the trial court and upon appeal. Sec. 12.75.160. Enforcing judgment of discharge. Obedience to a judgment for the discharge of a person imprisoned or restrained, pursuant to the provisions of this chapter, may be enforced by the court by proceedings for a contempt. A peace officer or other person is not liable to an action or proceeding for obeying the judgment of discharge. Sec. 12.75.170. Discharge as bar to subsequent restraint. No person who has been discharged by the order of a court upon habeas corpus shall again be imprisoned, restrained, or kept in custody for the same cause except in the following cases: (1) if the party has been discharged from a commitment on a criminal charge and is afterwards committed for the same offense by legal order or process; (2) if, after a judgment or discharge for a defect of evidence, or for a material defect in the commitment, in a criminal case, the party is again arrested on sufficient evidence and committed by legal process for the same offense; (3) if, after a civil action, the party has been discharged for any illegality in the judgment, decree, or process specified in AS 12.75.100, and is afterwards imprisoned for the same cause of action; (4) if, in a civil action, the party has been discharged from commitment on an order of arrest, and is afterwards committed on execution, in the same action, or on order of arrest in another action, after the dismissal of the first action. Sec. 12.75.180. Grounds for warrant in lieu of writ. When it appears to a court authorized to issue the writ of habeas corpus that a person is illegally imprisoned or restrained, and that there is good reason to believe that the person will be carried out of the state or suffer some irreparable injury before the person can be relieved by the issuing of a writ of habeas corpus, a court or judge authorized to issue the writ may issue a warrant reciting the facts, and directed to a peace officer commanding the officer to immediately bring the person before the court to be dealt with according to law. Sec. 12.75.190. Warrant may include command for arrest of defendant. When the proof mentioned in AS 12.75.180 is also sufficient to justify the arrest of the person having the party in custody, as for a criminal offense, committed in the taking or detaining of the party, the warrant may also contain an order for the arrest of the person for that offense. Sec. 12.75.200. Warrant in lieu of writ. The peace officer to whom the warrant is directed shall execute it by bringing the party named and the person who detains the party, if so commanded by the warrant, before the judge issuing the warrant. The person detaining the party shall make a return to the warrant as in the case of a writ of habeas corpus, and a proceeding shall be had as if a writ of habeas corpus had been issued in the first instance. Sec. 12.75.210. Proceedings as to person having party in custody. If the person having the party in custody is brought before the court as for a criminal offense, the person shall be examined, committed, bailed, or discharged by the court in like manner as in other criminal cases of the same nature. Sec. 12.75.220. Penalty for refusing to deliver copy of or obey authority to detain party. If a peace officer or other person refuses to deliver a copy of an order, warrant, process, or other authority by which the officer or other person detains a person to anyone who demands a copy and tenders the fees therefor, the officer or other person shall forfeit and pay to the person detained a sum of not more than $200. Sec. 12.75.230. Appeal. A party to a proceeding by habeas corpus may appeal from the judgment of the court refusing to allow the writ or a final judgment therein in like manner and with like effect as in an action. No question once finally determined upon a proceeding by habeas corpus shall be re-examined upon another or subsequent proceeding of the same kind. The provisions of the Code of Civil Procedure relating to contempt (AS 09.50.010 — 09.50.060) shall apply in criminal actions. Sec. 12.80.020. Indictment, information, and complaint. No person shall be held to answer for an infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a grand jury, except in cases arising in the armed forces in time of war or public danger. Indictment may be waived by the accused. In that case the prosecution shall be by information or complaint in the manner and form set out in the Rules of Criminal Procedure. Sec. 12.80.030. Taxation of costs. Costs may not be taxed to the defendant in a criminal action or proceeding begun or prosecuted in any of the courts of the state unless otherwise ordered by supreme court rule. Sec. 12.80.040. Violations and infractions. Except as provided in AS 11.81.900(b) and AS 28.90.010(d), all laws of the state relating to misdemeanors apply to violations and infractions, including the powers of peace officers, the jurisdiction of courts, and the periods for commencing actions and for bringing a case to trial. Sec. 12.80.060. Fingerprinting. (a) When a person is arrested for an offense, with or without a warrant, fingerprints of the person may be taken by the law enforcement agency with custody of the person. If the law enforcement agency with custody of the person does not take the fingerprints, the person's fingerprints shall be taken by the correctional facility where the person is lodged following the arrest. (b) At the initial court appearance or arraignment of a person for an offense, the court shall determine if the person's fingerprints have been taken in connection with the offense. If the court is unable to conclusively determine that the person's fingerprints have been taken, the court shall order the person to submit to fingerprinting within 24 hours at the appropriate correctional facility or another place for taking fingerprints that is more appropriate. (c) When a defendant is sentenced or otherwise adjudicated for an offense, the court shall determine if legible fingerprints have been taken in connection with the proceedings. If the court is unable to conclusively determine that legible fingerprints have been taken, the court shall order that the defendant, as a condition of sentence, adjudication, suspended imposition of sentence, probation, or release, submit to fingerprinting within 24 hours at the appropriate correctional facility or another place for taking fingerprints that is more appropriate. (d) The Department of Public Safety shall develop standard forms and procedures for the taking of fingerprints under this section. Fingerprints shall be (1) taken on a form, and in the manner, prescribed by the Department of Public Safety; and (2) forwarded within five working days to the Department of Public Safety. (e) When the Department of Public Safety receives fingerprints of a person in connection with an offense, the Department of Public Safety shall make a reasonable effort to confirm the identity of the person fingerprinted. If the Department of Public Safety finds that the person fingerprinted has criminal history record information under a name other than the name submitted with the fingerprints, the Department of Public Safety shall promptly notify the officer, agency, or facility that took the fingerprints. (f) If the arresting officer, the law enforcement agency that employs the officer, or the correctional facility where fingerprints were taken is notified by the Department of Public Safety that fingerprints taken under this section are not legible, the officer, agency, or facility shall make a reasonable effort to obtain a legible set of fingerprints. If legible fingerprints cannot be obtained within a reasonable period of time, and if the illegible fingerprints were taken under a court order, the officer or agency shall inform the court, which shall order the defendant to submit to fingerprinting again. (2) "offense" means conduct subjecting a person to arrest as an adult offender, or as a juvenile charged as an adult, (A) due to a violation of a federal or state criminal law, or municipal criminal ordinance; (B) under AS 12.25.180; (C) under AS 11.56.730; or (D) under AS 12.70. Sec. 12.85.010. Applicability of title and supreme court rules. The provisions of this title apply to all criminal actions and proceedings in all courts except where specific provision is otherwise made or where the Rules of Criminal Procedure adopted by the supreme court under its constitutional authority apply. This title governs all proceedings in actions brought after January 1, 1963, and all further proceedings in actions then pending, except to the extent that, in the opinion of the court, their application in a particular action pending when the rules take effect would not be feasible, or would work injustice, in which event, the laws in effect before January 1, 1963, apply. This title may be cited as the Code of Criminal Procedure.
