Keystone is an integrated healthcare clinic founded on the premise that early assessment, identification and treatment are critical to maximizing potential and preventing major challenges through a child's life. The staff works in collaborative teams of behavioral and developmental professionals with extensive backgrounds in diverse areas of childhood development and behavior.
Keystone's behavior therapy approach is tailored for each child based on how often behaviors occur, how long they last, what typically precedes the behavior problem, how behaviors are handled, etc. Although behavioral therapies are different from disorder to disorder, in each case, Keystone behavioral therapists encourage children and adolescents to try new behaviors and not to allow negative "rewards" to dictate the ways in which they act.
Although the therapist may be able to give you some general ideas about what to expect with treatment and may be able to provide general suggestions, the therapist is not able to provide you with a formal treatment plan or specific, in-depth recommendations until data is gathered through observations, functional assessments and behavior rating scales. Also, the course and timeline of treatment often varies across children and families depending on a variety of factors (e.g., presenting concerns, severity of problems, frequency of attendance, progress, etc.). Treatment plans are frequently fluid, allowing for modifications depending on changing factors as time elapses.

How to enable the speakers
even if i remove my headphone from my laptop's jack , the sound icon below still shows headphone and thus does not play through speaker. Please suggest some help.

Look at your sound settings in the control panel, maybe you can change it to the internal speaks that way.
Also check device manager for any issues.

Another thing it could be is that there is a small switch behind the jack sockets terminals that cuts out the speakers when you plug the phones in and makes a power contact for the phone light.
Now that could be just stuck enough to keep the speakers cut out and that light on. If you can get behind the panel use a strong light to look closely at the terminals at that phone socket. You may be able just to flick it with a plastic probe of some sort - Biro pen will do but however maybe unlucky enough to have a switching mechanism that it encased and then it may be released by some gentle tapping or worse case scenario - replace.
But look for AddRAM's advice first but I do think it is a hardware issue as I have been messing with dedicated electronics for errrrm a long time
Sorry I did notice also that you have a laptop in that case unless you can get to the back of that switch yourself ( depends on how handy you are) someitmes a a few quick in and outs of the jack plug can dislodhge the switch.

Glacier Bay National Park
Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve contains some of the world's most impressive tidewater glaciers. The bay has experienced at least four major glacial advances and four major retreats and serves as an outdoor research laboratory. Mountains rise right from its tidewater up to three vertical miles. Mount Fairweather is southeastern Alaska's highest peak. The dramatic variety of plant communities ranges from barren terrain just recovering from glacial retreat to lush temperate rain forest. The story of plant succession is nowhere more richly told than at Glacier Bay.
Glacier Bay has more than 50 named glaciers, as well as two major arms: East Arm and West Arm. Most people who come to the Park—and there can be 400,000 of them a year—come by way of a cruise ship, and most of those ships head up the West Arm, towards the Margerie Glacier. The reason? It's the most impressive glacier, which is advancing 12 to 14 feet a day and calves frequently.
You'll often see seals hauled out on the ice chunks, here; if you're in front of the Margerie Glacier, you'll also be within sight of the Grand Pacific Glacier. This glacier once filled the entire bay, reaching Icy Strait in the late 1700s. Receding rapidly, its face is now covered with rocky moraine. Other well-known glaciers in the Park include Johns Hopkins, Reid, Carroll and Lamplugh glaciers.
The park and preserve harbors brown and black bears, mountain goats, moose, whales, seals, plus eagles and more than 200 other species of birds. Together with Wrangell-St. Elias National Park and Preserve and the Tatshenshini-Alsek Park in British Columbia, this 24-million-acre wilderness is a World Heritage Site and the world's largest internationally protected area.
Access: By commercial cruise ship, tour boat, or aircraft or by scheduled air or boat service from Juneau and other southeastern Alaska communities. Approximate Size 3.3 million acres.
(For more information, call 907-697-2230, or check out the Glacier Bay National Parks website)

WASHINGTON — Nationals great Livan Hernandez won't be throwing out the ceremonial first pitch for NLDS Game 1 after all.
With the National League Division Series against the Dodgers slated to start at Nationals Park Friday, the Nats had announced Hernandez, the first pitcher in Nationals team history to throw a pitch in 2005, would open the postseason for the Nationals.
Hernandez, however, was unable to travel to attend the game in D.C. due to Hurricane Matthew. Replacing him, the Nationals say a "surprise guest" will instead throw out Game 1's ceremonial first pitch.
Former National Adam LaRoche — since retired — and his son, Drake, will handle ceremonial duties ahead of Game 2 on Saturday.

Penguins are birds that cannot fly but they can swim, waddle, hop and dive. While other birds have wings for flying, penguins' wings have evolved into flippers to help them swim. Because they spend more time in the water than on land penguins are good swimmers. They can swim fast, dive deep and stay under water a long time before they come up for air. To keep them warm in icy water penguins have a thick layer of insulating feathers. Their body also produces an oil to make their feathers waterproof.
All penguins live near water in the Southern Hemisphere ranging from the cold waters of Antarctica to the tropical Galapagos Islands, close to the equator. No penguins live at the North Pole.
There are seventeen different species of penguins. The largest penguins are the Emperor Penguins of Antarctica. They can be up to 3ft 7 inches tall and weigh 75 pounds. Little Blue Penguins also known as Fairy Penguins, living off the southern coast of Australia, are the smallest penguins at only 16 inches tall and weighing 2 ½ pounds.
Most penguins live together in large groups made up of hundreds of birds. When everyone is "talking" at once it can get pretty noisy. So each penguin has its own unique voice to help them find their mates and chicks in a big crowd.
The penguin diet consists of fish, squid and krill. When they are able they will eat more than necessary to build up a layer of fat on their bodies. This comes in handy when they are caring for their eggs and young chicks. At that time they will often go for many days without eating.
Penguins will lay one to two eggs at a time. Both the males and females will take turns caring for the egg. When they hatch, both parents help with feeding and keeping the chick warm.

PRAGUE, April 19 (Reuters) - Czech utility CEZ aims to sell all of its Bulgarian assets and has received expressions of interest mainly from investors in the Balkan country, a company official said on Wednesday.
In January CEZ said it was testing market interest for its Bulgarian operations, including an electricity distributor that provides power to more than 2 million clients in western Bulgaria.
Bulgaria's Socialist party had said it would look at options for the country if it won last month's election, but the party failed to gain power and is not part of coalition talks now under way.
Though CEZ board member Pavel Cyrani said on Wednesday that Bulgarian investors had shown interest in its Bulgarian assets, which also include a coal-fired power plant in Varna, two renewable energy plants and an electricity trader, he said that no talks had begun with the country's new government and no sale timetable had been set.
CEZ acquired 67 percent stake in the power distributor in western Bulgaria in 2004 after placing the highest bid of 281.5 million euros ($303.65 million) in a privatisation tender.

Structure of the eukaryotic translation initiation factor eIF4E in complex with 4EGI-1 reveals an allosteric mechanism for dissociating eIF4G.
Department of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02115; firstname.lastname@example.com.
The interaction of the eukaryotic translation initiation factor eIF4E with the initiation factor eIF4G recruits the 40S ribosomal particle to the 5' end of mRNAs, facilitates scanning to the AUG start codon, and is crucial for eukaryotic translation of nearly all genes. Efficient recruitment of the 40S particle is particularly important for translation of mRNAs encoding oncoproteins and growth-promoting factors, which often harbor complex 5' UTRs and require efficient initiation. Thus, inhibiting the eIF4E/eIF4G interaction has emerged as a previously unpursued route for developing anticancer agents. Indeed, we discovered small-molecule inhibitors of this eIF4E/eIF4G interaction (4EGIs) that inhibit translation initiation both in vitro and in vivo and were used successfully in numerous cancer-biology and neurobiology studies. However, their detailed molecular mechanism of action has remained elusive. Here, we show that the eIF4E/eIF4G inhibitor 4EGI-1 acts allosterically by binding to a site on eIF4E distant from the eIF4G binding epitope. Data from NMR mapping and high-resolution crystal structures are congruent with this mechanism, where 4EGI-1 attaches to a hydrophobic pocket of eIF4E between β-sheet2 (L60-T68) and α-helix1 (E69-N77), causing localized conformational changes mainly in the H78-L85 region. It acts by unfolding a short 310-helix (S82-L85) while extending α-helix1 by one turn (H78-S82). This unusual helix rearrangement has not been seen in any previous eIF4E structure and reveals elements of an allosteric inhibition mechanism leading to the dislocation of eIF4G from eIF4E.

Governor Chris Christie today conditionally vetoed legislation that fails to reform how affordable housing is provided in New Jersey. The heavily amended legislation falls far short of its original intent by creating a new bureaucracy and continuing and even increasing an unnecessary burden on the State's municipalities.
"If the goal of this legislation is to replace an already broken system for providing affordable housing with a common sense, predictable and achievable process, then this bill sorely misses the mark," said Governor Christie. "The Senate has presented a considerably different version of the legislation I originally supported in June -- one that was simple and sufficiently close to the recommendations contained in the March 19, 2010, report of the Housing Opportunity Task Force. This version perpetuates the Council on Affordable Housing (COAH) nightmare by placing further burdens on municipalities and the environment while creating rather than eliminating additional bureaucracies in order to satisfy the needs of special interests. I believe this bill should be amended to return it to its original, beneficial form as passed by the Senate in June."
The original version of S-1 passed by the Senate in June 2010 called for:
* eliminating COAH and the arbitrary affordable housing numbers it
assigned to municipalities
* requiring that 1 out of every 10 newly constructed housing units
be designated as affordable (towns with no growth would have no
further affordable housing obligation other than to inventory and
rehabilitate its existing affordable housing stock)
* limiting State review of municipal housing plans
* protection against builder's remedy lawsuits for municipalities
* elimination of commercial development fees, though residential
development fees were permitted to be charged if a developer chose
not to build affordable units on-site and decided to pay the
residential development fee instead
In its current, unacceptable form, S-1:
* requires 10% of all the housing units in every municipality in the
State to be affordable
* necessitates that 25% of the affordable housing obligation be met
by inclusionary development, legislating sprawl by increasing the
amount of mandated new housing by 500% to 700%.
* creates a new regulated entity to review a municipality's housing
* causes towns to have to pay for two planners -- one to draft the
plan, and the other to certify it meets the requirements of the bill
* provides no meaningful protection against builder's remedy lawsuits
* requires towns in the Highlands, Pinelands, Fort Monmouth and
Meadowlands districts to have 15%to 20% of all new construction as

They stay in your jersey until you stop for a coffee. They make walking just a little bit easier and safer, they protect you from wearing out your cleat. You just gotta remember to bring them...Oh and they get lost easily, which sucks.

text: Hi Mas, Thanks for taking the time to post answers to our questions on the site. In advance I'll apologize for the length of my post...I've been on the job for 37 years and I'm used to writing long reports! I'm in the process of trying to chose between a model 30SF (or 30 Gen 4 if they come out with it) and a model 38. I tend to research the s&*t out of everything before I buy and I'm more confused and frustrated than anything right now. I'm not a fan of the .40, I carry a 22 on duty and had a 23 which I happened to sell today for off duty. I also have a 19 that I carry off duty the majority of the time but have concerns about 9mm capabilities. There seems to be an uptick in bad things happening out there and I don't want to get caught short. So....I'm looking at going with a Glock in a 45 caliber for my off duty carry. I really like the size and fit to my hand of the model 19, this has me leaning towards the model 38, basically same gun with a bigger hole in the important end. Then there's the 30SF, I like the 10 rounds in the mag and the wider variety (and lower cost in most cases) of available ammo. But...I'm not too crazy about the two finger hold on the grip (yeah I know, Pierce mag extension). The 30SF is also a bit thicker than the 38 in cross section and I'm concerned about the weight. I don't carry IWB, everything I carry is in a Fobus paddle holster. I've noted that several state police departments are carrying the 45 GAP but haven't seen any feedback on performance. What are you hearing about the 45 GAP from people in the LE field? I read your write-up on the model 30, but was curious if you've had any hands on with the 38 and if so what's your take?

'Chronicles of Riddick' Sequel to Be R-Rated + Cool New Concept Art
by Ethan Anderton
September 5, 2011
Source: Facebook
Some fantastic concept art for the gestating sequel to the Chronicles of Riddick sequel has already surfaced back in June and July, but the more substantial update for the project came when star Vin Diesel said that in order to get a studio greenlight for what would be an R-rated sequel, he would have to work for scale, the lowest amount any actor in the Screen Actors Guild can be paid. Now Diesel has updated his Facebook page (via ComingSoon)to confirm an R-rated film has been greenlit by Universal. Also, yet another piece of concept art has been revealed with some blood to illustrate that R-rating just below.
It's always a gesture of passion and dedication when an actor is willing to take that step for a project, and it sounds like the sacrifice has paid off. Here's the new concept art Diesel posted on Facebook along with his own words:
"I hear you…
While I was working on character, the Director and his team of artists have been creating the world and style of this picture. We all know how much I enjoy concept art and storyboards, haha, I am like a kid in a candy shop.
Seeing the early stage of CGI is always fascinating to me, it is a element that usually comes together long after the filming process, so you look forward to seeing it fully realized.
First stop for the Riddick production is Canada, which is where we shot a large part of Chronicles…
P.s. I am grateful to have Universal in such support of this complex character's journey… not many studios would back an "R" rating. Very cool."
The last details on the currently untitled Riddick sequel described the story like this: "Betrayed by his own kind and left for dead on a desolate planet, Riddick (Diesel) fights for survival against alien predators and becomes more powerful and dangerous than ever before. Soon bounty hunters from throughout the galaxy descend on Riddick only to find themselves pawns in his greater scheme for revenge. With his enemies right where he wants them, Riddick unleashes a vicious attack of vengeance before returning to his home planet of Furya to save it from destruction." Sounds like the kind of sequel fans have been waiting for, and considering this is probably the most original and interesting series Diesel has been involved with, I'm really interested to see how it comes together.

I admit, I celebrate Halloween much more as a parent then when I was in college. Sure, as single gal, we did costume party and gathering but now as a mom we do pretty much whole October month as a Halloween celebration that includes, visiting many pumpkin patches, petting zoo, jump houses, attending fall carnivals, costume party and family gathering sometimes. Most kids love Halloween, what is not to love? Dressing up as their favorite super heroes, princess or character is fun and getting free candies while playing dress up! It sure seems like logical fun holidays for most young kids, some teens and a few adults too.
Kids loves trick or treating and we attend a few safe school or neighborhood trick or treating. My kids also love when other kids come and trick and treat at our place. We have fun guessing what they are dressed up as. As a parent safety during trick or treating is important to all of us. Here are a few quick tips to make Halloween fun and safe for kids and parents both.
Halloween Safety Tips for Kids :
- Go with your kids to trick or treating, specially if they are younger. For older kids, still go together, some parent may choose to follow older kids with bit distance. My kids being young I or Zenguy usually go with them.
- Do not go to strangers house or dark houses you do not know well. Try to visit your local street or people you know for trick or treating.
- Always watch out when crossing the road and hold hands, specially young kids.
- If older kids or teens want to go alone, make sure they carry cell phone and tell parents the path may they take and stick to it.
- Pick and choose a costume that is safe to walk in to. It can be store bought or home made.
- I am always shocked at sexed up costumes for young girls, avoid it and choose age appropriate costume that is well suited for kids and colder evenings during Oct 31st. You can make some easy costumes at home as well.
- Do not over plan and make a busy Halloween with trick or treating, parties and gathering. Keep it simple as younger kids tend to get tired and cranky easily.
- If you host a party for family, try simple decor as too much scary decor will scare some kids.
- Keep simple finger food, music for fun gathering for family and kids alike.
- Most of all, make sure do not finish all candies on same day! That goes for mom and dad too!
With simplicity and clean fun in mind, Halloween can be fun for all ages of kids, teens and adults.

I know there's a way to filter results using the substring function of the filter like this:
However, when I try to do the same thing through the PHP SDK, I get an Uncaught exception 'DataServiceRequestException'. My code is:
....->Filter(" substringof('what',Description) ").
I tried several different variations of cases and parenthesis, without any luck.
Is this even possible with the php SDK ? How ?
nevermind, I was using the wrong record name, lol

I had been looking for a Ford dealer to order a new 2013 Fusion Hybrid. I solicited quotes from three area dealers and got a prompt response from Landers Ford and by far the best deal as they would order the car I specified at dealer invoice cost plus $500. They worked with me on my order and it was...

There are a variety of methods to clean carpets and couches, depending upon the nature of the mess. Pick up any playthings, documents or other things that will block the flow of the hoover. The edges of the carpets and the baseboards typically accumulate dirt which must initially be gotten rid of. If furniture can not be removed, utilize the cranny expansion to get to under couches and various other pieces to eliminate dirt bunnies.
Carpet fibers are typically turned, and by going both instructions you could ensure that every component of the fiber has actually been reached. High heels are a definite no no on rug, as the sharp heels can capture on the carpeting fibers, causing pulls as well as runs in the heap.
Remember, though, that the system you purchase could not have the sofa cleaning fulham power that expert models do. The majority of home rug cleansing systems are water extraction devices that are also referred to as vapor cleaners. They function to wash carpeting by injecting a remedy right into the carpeting stack, then pulling the unclean remedy back right into the device. To prevent the inconvenience of dragging a hose around your home, go with a design that does not need a clean-water connection.
Rather, area tidy utilizing a specially developed, enzyme-based pet dog tarnish eliminator. Carpets as well as carpets occasionally appear to be stain magnets. Keep reading to discover how you can get rid of those troublesome discolorations.

One of the attorneys at my firm asked about giving a logo'd promotional item as part of a holiday gift to a client. My advise in this matter is simple: Not the best thing to do.
During the holiday season gifts from attorneys to clients (or whomever) should be gifts acknowledging the relationship and hopefully friendship. Introducing a firm's logo is definitely a business development tactic... Not a thank you for the relationship we already have. It's true that service providers to law firms send over all sorts of logo'd mugs and mouse pads as "gifts" when in truth they're hoping to have little billboards spread throughout the office. Once again, tacky.
One final question if you are not yet on my side of this issue. Are your clients only worth what you give away for free the rest of the year?

Giant Pool of Money
With support from:
The Office of the Vice President for Research, University of Michigan
Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design, University of Michigan
"Non Aes, Sed Fides"
Not Money, But Trust
-translated inscription on Maltese coin 1567
The Giant Pool of Money series examines the thoughts and beliefs that led to the global financial crisis in 2008 and the profound loss of faith in markets that followed.
The centerpiece of the series is a 15-foot-tall pyramid of champagne glasses, connected to a change machine that breaks dollar bills into "quarters." The coins were actually replicas minted out of the element gallium, a metal that melts just above room temperature. Transported by a network of conveyor belts to the top of the pyramid and deposited into the uppermost champagne glass, the coins melt and cascade down the pyramid over time. It's equal parts literal trickle-down theory and Terminator 2's liquid metal monster.
Viewers feed paper money into the machine themselves in order to confront how events in their own lives relate to the mind-bogglingly complex, media-constructed image of our economy. What seems like solid, familiar, everyday currency melts before our eyes, threatening to collapse the entire, fragile system — a visual rendering of our loss of faith in our globally interconnected economy.

Where do we go next? One city after another yeilds little work for the many seeking employment. Day labor offers no benifits and little in the way of income but many have no choice. They honestly want work and refuse gifts of any type because they can not reciprocate.

Hungary - Holocaust
BUDAPEST, Hungary (AP) — Hungarian Jewish leaders say they have found 103 Torah scrolls taken from Hungary during the Holocaust in a Russian library.
Rabbi Slomo Koves said Tuesday the sacred texts were discovered in the manuscript section of the Lenin State Regional Library in the western Russian city of Nizhny Novgorod. Koves said negotiations are underway with Russian officials to restore the scrolls and possibly display them in international exhibits.
Koves, of the Orthodox Chabad-Lubavitch community, called the find he helped make last year "of historical significance," adding that Hungary's government supports efforts to restore the scrolls.
A Torah is a handmade copy on parchment scrolls of the first five books of the Bible.
Some 550,000 Hungarian Jews were killed in the Holocaust, while around 100,000 Jews live in Hungary today.

With 2014 drawing to a close, it is worth looking ahead towards 2015 and the potential emissions-based rules that may affect many of the industries we work in.
We recently looked at OSHA's proposed combustible dust standard and its call for ideas on reducing exposure to hazardous materials. However, there are some other OSHA and EPA proposals related to emission controls worth keeping an eye on over the next year.
Crystalline Silica Standard
OSHA is looking to cut in half the permissible exposure limit (PEL) for crystalline silica. It contends that around 2.2 million workers are exposed to respirable crystalline silica while doing their jobs. These workers are mainly in the construction industry, but they also work in brick, concrete and pottery manufacturing, as well as operations using sand products, such as foundry work and oil and gas fracking.
OSHA wants to see the acceptable exposures reduced from around 100 micrograms of respirable crystalline silica per cubic meter of air (μg/m3), averaged over an eight-hour day, to a new PEL of 50 μg/m3. The same new PEL would apply to all industries it covers.
Read more about OSHA's proposed rule.
Meanwhile, the EPA has also proposed new regulations worth tracking, including the power plant rule, ozone legislation and the proposed waters of the U.S.
The Clean Power Plan for Carbon Emission Controls
The Clean Power Plan would require power plants to reduce carbon emissions 30% below 2005 levels by 2030. And it gives states until 2018 to file their plans for achieving that target. Those plans can include employing renewable energy technology or initiating state or regional cap and trade agreements. Reports suggest the EPA would like to finalize this rule by June 2015.
Read more about the Clean Power Plan.
Ozone Regulation
The EPA has also recommended that the national air standards for ozone be reduced to 60-70 parts per billion (ppb) from the current 75-ppb standard, which was set in 2008. The agency claims the new standard will improve public health protection, especially for children, the elderly, and people who suffer from such lung diseases as asthma.
Read more about the proposed ozone standards.
Waters of the U.S. Rule
Finally, the EPA has proposed a new rule to redefine the term "waters of the United States" and to assert its jurisdiction over the waters it can regulate under the Clean Water Act.
Specifically, the EPA wants it stated that the Clean Water Act protects:
- most seasonal and rain-dependent streams,
- wetlands near rivers and streams, and
- other types of waters that have more uncertain connections with downstream water on a case specific analysis.
The EPA seeks to be able to protect waters in some geographic areas, and add new categories to the types of waters that are under its guardianship, without any case specific analysis.
Read more about the Waters of the U.S. rule.
Headlines and talk shows may be dominated by political dysfunction, but there is a lot going on related to emission controls that could significantly impact industry.
Let us know in the comments below what you think of these proposed rules and how they may impact your business.
