Dimensions of Defense Defense is a function of more than design and software quality assurance. It has many dimensions, some of which are depicted in Figure 10. Each of these dimensions needs to be considered for each specific system and set of circumstances. 28 In addition to how a system is designed, these dimensions of defense include system operations, methods, and procedures employed to limit the attractiveness of an attack and/or the consequences of an attack. Figure 10 presents some of the dimensions of defense that need to be considered in constructing and "tuning" each system to its unique set of circumstances.
When the only exposure to the subject is through fiction, it is no wonder that the threat may be dismissed as fictional. There are still many individuals in key positions in both the public and private sector who need to have a better appreciation for this problem and to be more motivated to address the issues. On the other hand, admittedly we do not possess a great abundance of factual information. While we have clear indications that some potentially serious attacks, even crippling attacks, are technically feasible, as has been pointed out, there is no "smoking keyboard" to show.
26 Chapter 14: IW Deterrence With the dawn of the atomic age came the recognition that developing strategies for deterrence and counter proliferation needed to be pursued with a sense of the utmost urgency. IW differs from atomic warfare in a number of significant ways, and therefore lessons learned from our experience in developing a workable strategy for deterrence may not apply directly to the problem of deterrence of IW attacks, but certainly may provide a starting point or checklist for consideration.

I believe in the power of fantasy. Despite all historical evidence to the contrary, I feel with great conviction that fiction changes the world for the better more effectively than politics, social activism, or the most sincere objectives of war.
That's why I love reading stories that move me. I've always sensed that the feelings stirred by fiction matter in large ways beyond our imagining.
This is an online workbook for my current writing projects, my new fiction as well as my backlist, which I am republishing as ebooks.
The dreamweave of writing and the dreamwave of reading, which began with
the limitations of papyrus and clay tablets, surges with disembodied freedom in cybernetic media like Twitter and ebooks. Every living author's published books have suddenly become again works-in-progress! The ease of digital publishing means that choosing not to revise previously published work is also a creative act.
So far, I've issued ebook editions of
several eight novels and a short story collection. The task of revision is a soulful one. Art elides distance. It brings together writer and reader. Most of these texts I haven't read since they were published—and now the writer has become the reader. Meeting myself as the writer I used to be disrupts fate. How I read and revise changes the past, and I am becoming a different writer in the chrysalis of being my own reader!
elision strikethroughs in this blog represent the nullifying force that constrains creativity to art touch on the full strangeness of language to communicate through what is not said change the reader , even when the reader is the writer.
The human spirit is our power to reason, the human soul our capacity to imagine. Our digital age, our world of technological marvels, thrives on reason. Yet, fear and greed endure against all reason. What we love of soul is never loved enough.

Named for our youngest child Harriet (Harrie), who really enjoys "supervising" the hand-picking of the Pinot Noir grapes that make up this wine.
Crafted in the traditional way from Pinot Noir grapes, Harriet rose displays delicate, lifted aromas of crushed red berries, confectionary and floral notes.
The palate is seamlessly carried by soft acidity and juicy, vibrant fruit. Well-balanced and ready to be enjoyed on a sunny day as an aperitif, or with charcuterie, cheeses, or a fresh salad.

It's time the tide turned and all schools began to champion their work with children who have SEND. In fact, it's time the government began to champion schools who look after and educate our most vulnerable children. Clearly, according to the school accountability measures, some children matter more than others.
Those children who are predicted to have a positive Progress 8 score obviously matter more than others!
SEND is in trouble!
Too many mainstream schools are declaring that they cannot meet the needs of students with Statements or EHC Plans; Special schools are full; PRUs are full; millions of pounds are being spent on educating children in independent specialist provision. This will only change if schools are 'credited' for their work with vulnerable children. Let's start to give recognition to those schools with high percentages of SEND. Let's shout from the roof tops about those schools with challenging cohorts who have low exclusions and inclusive practice.
'These schools get extra money' I hear you cry. Yes, they do get Pupil Premium and extra SEN funding, but is it really enough?
We all know that mainstream pupil funding is not fair or equitable across the country. The government are currently in the process of (hopefully) putting this right. However, we also have a SEND post code lottery. Funding levels for pupils in the SEN system vary wildly from authority to authority. Special school provision is inconsistent and in some areas non-existent! Pupils are forced to travel miles to schools away from their own communities or experience being placed in schools that are not equipped to meet their needs. In many areas children experience fantastic provision and an excellent education. We just need this to be the case for all and not just for some.
Ofsted could really make a start with this one. A framework for inspection that credits schools for their high numbers of vulnerable learners would have immediate impact. It would change the level of stress and pressure on head teachers instantly. Rational and experienced head teachers are being forced to make decisions about their cohorts and admissions because they fear for their jobs. If teachers' and leaders' salaries were higher for working in these schools, they would attract the most talented and committed professionals. If the government had a league table based on inclusion, then we would solve the problem overnight. Why can't we look closely at accountability and make sure that schools with high numbers of SEND learners are not penalised through our fragile accountability measures.
Parents with children who have SEND need to have confidence in their local community school, whether an academy or otherwise. Children with SEND need to be at school with their friends and peers from their own communities. If a parent gets the slightest inclination that the local school is not 100% committed to their education, then they will select another school. This means that schools can easily prevent SEND children from attending. After all, it's the parent's choice that counts. Why would a parent ever even consider sending their child to a school that intimates, even slightly, that it cannot meet their child's needs?
Moral purpose, values and statutory responsibility are being eroded on a daily basis in our schools. Until our accountability system aligns with inclusion then this will only get worse. As complexity of need increases then so does the pressure on the school system. More intervention is required and more pastoral care is essential. Schools are mopping up the mess left by the slashing cuts to public services. Schools are becoming the one-stop-shop for care and intervention. Just recently the government have rightly acknowledged the need to invest in mental health support for our young people. This is fantastic and long overdue, but once again it seems to be falling on the responsibility of schools. Let's not train and embed specialist mental health practitioners in schools but instead let's train our teachers to be mental health practitioners. Great idea considering they clearly have not got much else to do!
So, do some children matter more than others?
- Who are the most important children in your school?
- Do you, teachers or leaders, worry about the impact SEND children will have on your results?
- Do you consider their negative Progress 8 predictions and worry about your future?
- Do you look at the dates for the January school census and just wonder if there is any way you can get them off your school roll so they won't count on your results?
- Do you worry about what Ofsted might say about pupil progress when resources are being directed in to SEND support, leaving you with the challenge of delivering the mainstream curriculum?
- Does your SENCo complete reviews under extreme pressure because they know that they will struggle to fund the necessary interventions knowing funding is tight?
- When you advertise in the local paper to attract new admissions do you say how great you are with SEND pupils, encouraging them to your school?
- Does your SENCo actively encourage SEND admissions at your open evening?
Lots of questions and no easy answers. I don't blame head teachers for their decisions and choices relating to vulnerable, challenging and SEND children. I blame a system where some children seem to matter more than others.

Seeing is Believing
Updated: Nov 25, 2019
Her head was hanging so low and covered by her black silky hair, that I wasn't sure how Valeria could see her next step as she slowly shuffled towards me and a friend. We could tell that she came wearing her best clothing and possibly the only nice clothing she owned. Through her shame Valeria explained how she could not read the assignments that her teachers were giving her at school.
Tears began to form in this young Mayan girl's eyes as she continued, "The doctor said my eyesight is bad and reading glasses won't even help me."
I could barely see her eyes as her long, beautiful hair covered her face. "Can you look at me, Valeria?" I asked.
She raised her head with a smile as I explained how beautiful she was. We gave her a piece of paper to read, but she could not see the words. So, we prayed that the same God who healed the blind man would heal this teenager's eyesight.
After prayer, we gave the paper back to her to read again. Soon rivers of tears flooded her face as she raised her head up high in awe. Valeria could now read the letters on the page before her. Not only did she receive her eyesight, she also received her confidence back.
God is still the same yesterday, today and forever. He is the God who heals.
Thank you, Jesus!

Taking their series back to New York tied 1-1, the Rangers and their best-of-seven backers could be ruing the late game-tying goal scored by Tomas Plekanec in Game 2 if the Blueshirts' struggles at Madison Square Garden continue against the Canadiens. 2-8 straight up in their last 10 games in Manhattan, the Rangers opened as -130 favorites for Game 3 but could close as home underdogs if the line keeps moving in the Habs' favor.
– Shark BITES
- The Rangers are 0-11 on the puckline in their last 11 games at home.
- The visiting team is 7-0 on the puckline in the last 7 games in this matchup.
- Carey Price is 2-0 with a .947 save percentage in his 2 starts at MSG this season.
This series is starting to feel very much like a classic and the odds agree, with the series price swinging back in the direction of the Canadiens after Plekanec's late-game heroics in Game 2. Henrik Lundqvist was beaten four times on 58 shots in the Rangers' overtime loss on Friday and could be in for another assault tonight with a core of defenders in front of him that leaves a lot to be desired.
New York was one of the worst teams at generating shots at home during the regular season and that manifested in the Rangers having the second worst home record of all teams that made the playoffs.
Since taking over behind the Canadiens' bench, Claude Julien has led his Habs to a 10-2 straight up record in their 12 road games, including a 4-1 win over the Rangers back in March. If you can get Montreal as an underdog, it could be a good play.
Opening Odds & Computer Pick
The New York Rangers were listed earlier today as -130 moneyline favorites at most sportsbooks tracked by Odds – Shark (including Bovada), while odds makers set the opening betting total around 5.
A 3-2.4 result in favor of the Rangers is the prediction by the Odds – Shark handicapping pick engine. View the computer score prediction and who will win the pick on the moneyline for all upcoming NHL matchups here.

Our weekday hiking routes are normally focused around those short trails in the Hong Kong Island where we can have adequate time to pick up our little boy after school. The Sir Cecil's Ride located in the eastern part of the Hong Kong Island that we hiked recently is one of the great choices.
The trail starts from the entrance located at roughly 30 minutes of walk from the Mount Park Road in Quarry Bay. This is my preferred entrance as it is relatively flat in nature.
In case you want to challenge yourself, there is another entrance located at around 15 minutes of walk from the Mount Park Road. This trail is made up of steps that directly take you up to the Sir Cecil's Ride.
There are a number of exits as well: Braemar Hill Road next to the Braemar Hill Road Playground or Mount Butler Road that lead to Tai Hang Road and Happy Valley. The former trail takes around two hours while the latter one should be finished within three hours.
As the Tai Tam Country Park is quite large in coverage and there are a number of Barbecue sites located along the Mount Parker Road, you can easily spot group of wild boars walking around and looking for food. They normally walked along the hillside and will not attack hikers. However, in order not to affect their instinct to forage for food, we are not advised to feed them or leave any food remains in the rubbish bins.
We normally start our hike from the second entrance to the Sir Cecil's Ride.
Right at the entrance, you can have a wonderful view of the eastern part of the Hong Kong Island and the Kowloon Peninsula. These areas are normally the residential areas. However, as commercial areas are shifting towards the eastern parts of Hong Kong, there are lots of class-A commercial buildings (like those in dark colours below) erected in Quarry Bay and Kowloon Bay.
With a further 10 minutes walk, you will arrive at the entrance to the Siu Ma Shan.
You may spend another 20 minutes to walk up the steps to the Mount Butler High Frequency Radio Receiving Station. The higher you go, the better view of the Hong Kong Island and Kowloon you will have. You then exit Siu Ma Shan from Mount Butler Road to Tai Hang Road.
If you skip Siu Ma Shan, you will arrive at the junction of the two entrance to the Sir Cecil's Ride that I have mentioned before, in another 15 minutes.
When you come to the 2000m mark, continue your walk along the steps on the left.
From here you can climb up the steps to enjoy the another view of the eastern part Hong Kong Island and Kowloon from the View Compass.
Continue forward to the Sir Cecil's Ride.
那寶聯徑又是甚麼地方呢? 終於有一次就在路標往下走。原來是大潭交野公園廣鰂魚涌擴建部分之一。繞了一圈,又回到金督馳馬徑,景色我就覺得較一般。
So what is Po Luen Path? My wife and I finally visited the Path in one of our previous hikes. It is part of the Quarry Bay Extension of the Tai Tam Country Park, a small loop that takes around 10 minutes before getting back to the Sir Cecil's Ride. Nothing special or attractive to us!
Continue the journey and the pavilion next to the Sir Cecil's Ride Stream Rest Area will come into sight shortly.
Turn right and cross the bridge to the Braemar Hill Road exit.
This is the trail leading to the Braemar Hill Road exit.
If you are not tired, you can continue to the Mount Butler Road exit. This will take slightly over an hour before reaching the exit near Tai Hang Road.
Use the steps along the Saint Joan of Arc secondary School to get to the Braemar Hill Road Playground.
而今次我會帶大家去體驗一個不同的地方 – 油街實現 (Oil Street Art Space)。
It's nearly lunch time when the hiking came to the end. You may take your fast lunch at those restaurants in the Braemar Hill Shopping Centre.
Otherwise, I suggest to walk or take public bus / mini-bus to Fortress Hill where you can have a wide variety of quality foods.
In fact, I will share with you another wonderful experience at Oil Street Art Space.
My focus is not on the modern art presented here but the open space for the public.
What we got is grassland that let people to relax and enjoy the bright sunlight. There are also wooden tables and chairs where you can take a rest or chat with your friends before going back to the workplace.
For me, I choose to have my care free lunch at this wonderful open space.
This is the small localised cafe that I got our takeaway. The Cantonese style of homemade soups they offered looked very attractive to people like me that really don't have any clue to prepare these soups.
Good food with tasty soup, you don't need to be a big spender to have such a wonderful afternoon.
Come and relax if you have time.

Bank Name: The Kansas National Bank of Wichita
State: KS – Kansas
Charter Number: 2782
Lifetime: Operated 1882 to 1920 | Total Issue – $2,765,350
Series: $100 – 1902 Blue Seal National Banknote
Sheets Printed: 337
Value: Call, Text, or Email For A Quote | email@example.com | 864-430-4020
Basic Design:
Rarity and Value: Your typical 1902 $100 blue seal is from a large bank, usually in a larger city. You can buy a generic example for between $450 and $900. Some notes can be worth a lot more than that. However, they would have to be from a rare bank or be in especially high grade. Please contact us for exact value information. Don't forget to check the serial number. Number 1 notes always sell for nice premiums.
Current Market Analysis: There are dozens, if not hundreds of truly rare and amazing notes from Kansas that should be worth two or three times more than what they sell for in today's market. The problem is that Kansas had lots of national banks and it just doesn't have a very strong collector base today. For example, a three known blue seal from Florida might sell for $10,000. A note with the exact same rarity from a Kansas bank might not even sell for $1,500. It is just one of those simple supply and demand things. The quantity of great material far outweighs the number of people looking to buy it. Let's hope that prices will increase in the future as buyers start to make bargain purchases and accidently turn into long-term collectors.
We Are Buyers!!!
We buy all antique paper money issued by The Kansas National Bank of Wichita, KS. We can tell you how much your $100 bill is worth. We aren't just dealers. We are also collectors, experts, and appraisers. We have contributed to numerous price guides and are considered specialists in the field of national currency.

Farooq Sattar appeals administration to remove seals of party's offices
KARACHI (92 News) – Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) leader Farooq Sattar has on Wednesday said that despite all issues the party will hold celebrations at Jinnah Ground and Waseem Akhtar and Arshad Wohra will change the city.
Talking to media at the Old KMC Building on the occasion of elections, he said that they would take the rapid development of Karachi, adding that the decisions are being taken from Pakistan. "The celebrations will be held at Jinnah Ground today evening," he said.
He appealed the administration to remove the seals of party's offices including headquarters nine-zeros.
"Dr Amir Liaquat is an emotional person and he is one of them, adding that the party leader Nasreen Jalil was confused but her issues have been resolved," Sattar added.
On the other hand, Opposition leader in Sindh Assembly, Khawaja Izharul Hassan said that it would be difficult to run city's matters from the jail, adding that they would request Sindh Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah to strengthen the hands of Waseem Akhtar.
He said that he fully support the Karachi operation, adding that the peace is being restored in the city.

5 years after Bootcamp, Ben and Georgia's company is about to start testing its portable and contactless vein-viewing device that identifies hard-to-locate veins in hospitals in Europe. The Viewpoint Medical team has expanded, continued to develop the solution, and are now on the brink of solving a global medical problem—with a little help from their support network, including Viclink.
"I think there's a perception that once you leave Bootcamp that's it, the support stops," says Ben. "But Viclink has continued to stay in touch with us, and help out wherever it can—most recently by connecting us with the Wellington Momentum Committee so we could successfully apply for $20k of funding to develop our concept into a prototype."
The Wellington Momentum Committee is a student-led, strategic partnership—involving Return on Science, Viclink and KiwiNet—that focuses on providing support, advice and funding to student entrepreneurs.
"The Momentum grant funded the build of a portable prototype for use in hospital pilot trials later this year," says Ben, who holds a Bachelor of Design Innovation in Industrial Design from Victoria University of Wellington. "And that's given us the traction we needed to secure more funding that just wouldn't have been possible otherwise, and will ultimately help us get it to market in less time."
He says the Momentum Committee funding is a rare opportunity that is hugely beneficial for young entrepreneurs developing early-stage concepts. "It's one of the most difficult times for a start-up to access funds. Other funders such as angel investors generally only invest in products that are already market-ready."
He and Georgia have worked hard to validate the market need—talking to almost 100 medical professionals around the world—thanks to an intensive eight-week market validation lab for medical technology devices held in the Netherlands last year. The lab is a partnership between YES!Delft (the Delft University of Technology's business incubator) and EIT Health.
"What we found was that current methods such as slapping the skin, using a tourniquet, warming the skin, or using numbing patches are time-consuming as well as ineffective and painful," says Georgia, who is currently living in the Netherlands, as is Ben.
"We also discovered that hospitals—the biggest end users of IV catheters—consider current vein viewing tools to be too expensive, while cheaper options are limited by functionality and effectiveness. Our low-cost device is economic, easy-to-use and effective, so our first market is definitely hospitals," says Georgia, who worked for Viclink as a Commercialisation and Intellectual Property Intern while she and Ben were first getting Viewpoint-Medical off the ground.
She says that each year, over 90 percent of hospitalised patients worldwide require intravenous procedures. Patients who are very young or old, critically ill, have darker skin, are dehydrated or obese have the hardest veins to find. And increasing rates of obesity mean increasing numbers of patients with difficult-to-find veins.
"The vein illumination market was valued at $65 million in 2018 and is expected to increase to $160 million by 2021," says Georgia.
And while hospitals are at the forefront of their marketing efforts, Ben and Georgia believe the portability and affordability of their device also makes it ideal for future deployment in rural areas, developing countries, disaster relief situations and in the home.
To help them realise this market potential, the Viewpoint-Medical team has now expanded to include Joy Hooft Graafland (an industrial designer from the Netherlands), Rahul Albuquerque (an electrical and systems engineer from New Zealand), and Nicola Rowe.
"The fact that our device could create real and rewarding impact out in the world means that every step forward is exciting to us," says Ben. "Being able to create our own careers is beyond what we could have imagined when we first entered Bootcamp back in 2014, but we know we couldn't have come this far without the support we have received from our families and organisations like Viclink, the Wellington Momentum Committee and YES!Delft."

I was looking at someone else's project and kept seeing this error every time I loaded the project. I didn't realize that PSoC Desiger projects look for a file called PSoCConfig.xml by default. If a file by that name isn't present in your project folder, you'll see "The specified part is not loaded in the device library" upon trying to open a project.
In my case I didn't realize that this xml was given a bunch of aliases in my project folder. I was expected to rename the xml file I wanted to use, to get the associated project to load properly.

Drivers who endanger the lives of highway workers could face up to three months in jail and a $500 fine as part of Gov. Andrew Cuomo's budget proposal to promote the safety of transportation workers across New York.
The stiffer penalties target drivers who are guilty of unauthorized intrusions into active work zones, which occurred 610 times between 2014 and 2017, according to the state Department of Transportation.
"New York has zero tolerance for anyone who flagrantly puts the lives and safety of transportation workers in jeopardy," Cuomo said in a statement.
The governor's proposed budget would also require the implementation of a public education and outreach effort to increase work zone safety and potentially reduce the number of incidents, which include speeding and unauthorized intrusions.
Last year the state unveiled a public service campaign to promote work zone safety, which reminded drivers that "flaggers have families too."

My Son …
You're almost there my son,
laying there in your last bed as medications struggle to give you peace.
You haven't had this in a long time, and I've shed my pain through half closed eyes.
You never deserved this,
never deserved the massive mess that had no reason to take you slowly.
Like a monster, it set a fire that never will pass on like you will.
In the deep of my watery eye, I can see that you won't feel this pain anymore.
Even though I faced the time to agree on decisions made for you, I know that you in some way understand, because really, who am I to decide this fate for you?
How could anyone?
But it was out of love for you Kody.
Some reason I feel that you will be the brightest star that will linger in the night sky,
and I won't remember the pain you, your mother, and even I felt while you were here.
We will remember in stone how your laughter rang our ears; your mouth opens so far you can see your baby teeth grow.
We will always stand up for the way you would play with me, your dad,
giggle at the world when I would blow on your tiny belly,
or the sparkling masterpiece of your eyes when you just looked at me; and time and time again, you loved to dance to loud and upbeat techno music, winding up so much with energy no-one but me could feel, when I sang my favorite songs, as you cooed along.
You are my son. Always will be my son.
Your sister Emily will too remember the times she felt your warm arms around her as you comforted her many nights. She will not forget the time she tried to help feed you by holding your feeding tube.
No sadness or pain can take away the roses in your cheeks, the dimples in your hands, and small feet that kicked my face on accident once.
You are my son and your suffering will not take you anymore, because this isn't what love is.
Love is the fact that you exist.
Love is you.
Love is the bed you lay in now.
Author notes
Kody's will to live is being overpowered by his disease, which he was, for no reason, born with.
Our last visit to the hospital was the worst one yet, it has even made his doctors question whether it is the time to let Kody pass on. We have come to our own realization and agree with the doctors' thoughts and advice. Our decision to let Kody go was made with love.
Kody has had a short time with us on this Earth; he has been in pain for what seems a long time and without our decision, would have grown to be much worse.
The little time Kody has been a part of our lives, he has touched everyone who has crossed his path in some form or fashion. Kody is two years and three months old. It has been a great and wonderful pleasure to raise a fine and beautiful person and child as he.
The disease that he has is rare and unbearable, and people need to know about it so that they can research or find some way to find a cure for this horrible child depriving disease. If anyone wants to do their own research, they may find many documents on the Internet, just start with this
Menkes disease is a disorder that affects copper levels in the body. It is characterized by sparse, kinky hair; failure to thrive; and progressive deterioration of the nervous system.
Thank you for listenning :)

Through a partnering sponsorship with Fiesta Bowl, college football enthusiasts learned more about Hass avocados from Chile and tasted them first-hand at both Fiesta Bowl's College Football's Biggest Party (CFBP) and Stadium Club tailgate pre-game extravaganzas.
APTOS, Calif.

No worries about packing these holiday decorations away when the season's over – they're gone by the end of the party! The basis of the easy-to-do wreath and tree is Chilean Hass Avocados, in season now because it's summer down in Chile, where they grow top quality fruit (yes, the avocado is a fruit).
Avocados add great flavor and color to these centerpieces and also provide nearly 20 vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients (beneficial plant compounds). Avocados do have fat but theirs is monounsaturated and polyunsaturated and thus a good replacement for saturated fat.

What to Do When You Receive a Debt Collection Letter or Call | Canada
Q: Our son was over for dinner last night and I could tell something was bothering him. After some prodding, he told us that he received a call from a debt collection agency today for a debt that he thought he had paid off years ago. The debt collector wants him to make a $50 payment by tomorrow otherwise they may take legal action against him. He's worried that this will affect his chances of getting a mortgage. What should he do?
A: I would not recommend that your son send any payment to this debt collection agency before getting more information. One of the trends we are seeing more of in Canada, is the practice of large creditors, like banks and credit card companies, selling off their old bad debt accounts to collection agencies. Sometimes there are accounts included in the mix of accounts sold that shouldn't have been included, e.g. settled accounts or those past the statute of limitation.
Provincial Statute of Limitation – How Long Can a Debt Collector Enforce Payment?
Each province has its own rules governing what collectors can and cannot do, as well as a statute of limitation outlining the specific length of time a creditor (or their agent) has in which to enforce repayment of a debt through legal means.
Once an account is deemed to be beyond the limitation period, a creditor loses the right to enforce repayment of the debt. Keep in mind that there are some exceptions, like arrears for child support and government debt.
How to Communicate Effectively with a Debt Collector or Debt Collection Agency
It is highly unlikely that any collection agency would call up out of the blue and only give a person one day to make a payment or face legal action. If the account the debt collection company contacted your son about is beyond the statute of limitation for the province you live in, they cannot initiate legal action against him unless he acknowledges the debt.
Acknowledging a debt means making a payment or in some cases, confirming the debt in writing. When a debt is acknowledged, the limitation period restarts.
Related: Dealing with Creditors – When Should You Write to Them & Sample Letters
Encourage your son to contact the collection agency. He needs to ask that a statement of account to be sent to him before he does anything else. He should also advise the agency that if the account is beyond the statute of limitation, to cease all future communication with him. If the calls persist, he has the right to file a formal complaint with the appropriate consumer protection office.
Making Payment Arrangements with a Debt Collection Agency
If your son discovers that he indeed still owes the money, before he agrees to any payment arrangements, he will need to look at his budget carefully. This will help him consider what he can afford to pay, without falling behind on other payments.
The debt collector may also offer to accept a settlement from him for a reduced amount. If the offer is originally made verbally over the phone, have your son ask to receive it in writing from the collection agency. He should wait to make a decision whether or not to accept the offer until he receives their offer letter outlining the terms. Once he has received the written offer and agrees to it, only then should he forward the required payment.
As part of the settlement terms, he can negotiate how the agency reports the debt to the credit bureau companies. A debt that is either paid or settled in full will reflect more positively than an unpaid debt that has been written off.
If your son would like help looking at his budget and his debts, contact us for a free, confidential appointment. One of our Credit Counsellors would be happy to review his financial situation with him and help him get back on track.
Get to the Bottom of a Debt Collection Letter or Phone Call First
Information is powerful, so while it can take a little longer to get to the bottom of this upsetting phone call from the debt collection agency, getting all the facts and looking for the best way to resolve the situation will give your son peace of mind.

Hotpot With Loved Ones – Halal Soup Base Recipe
Halal soup base? What for you wonder? One favorite pastime most Malaysians know and love has to be hotpot-ing. Similar to steam-boating minus the grill part. Hotpot is originally Chinese.
We spend hours on end eating to our heart's content this staple gathering food. Chatting with old friends and family, while cooking our food in delicious broth as we go.
The broth comes in two variations; mild and spicy. Being South East Asian, naturally, we have a knack for spice so most of us favor the spicy broth. But, essentially both are of the same basic meat broth.
Traditionally, the hotpot broth starts as a meat broth. The mild broth hotpot base is essentially a simple yet tasty meat broth with no spice additions. While the spicy broth hotpot base is the same meat broth base with special chili, spices and bean paste added.
Traditionally also, this broth is made from chicken and pork bones. Many Malaysians cannot eat pork so this will be a hotpot halal soup base recipe for both versions. Therefore, everyone can enjoy it and eat to their heart's content. This recipe will leave a mark on you and your guests.
Chicken broth & mild broth hotpot halal soup base recipe
It's traditionally made with pork bones so we swap it out with a whole chicken to be an "all consumer friendly" broth. Also, for this recipe, we opted to add more aromatics because that's the good stuff.
Making the broth is fairly easy. Have a large pot clean and ready with filtered water. Drop all ingredients in and leave to boil. Voila.
This is to make it from scratch, but if you feel it too tasking, feel free to just use bought stock base diluted.
1 Whole Chicken (chopped up into smaller pieces)
1 Whole Onion (roughly diced)
1 large Ginger piece (peeled and sliced)
1 bunch of Scallions (roughly sliced into 1-inch pieces)
1 Carrot (roughly sliced)
5 cloves of Garlic (peeled and smashed)
1 long Celery stalk (roughly chopped)
1 Bay Leaf
1 tablespoon Salt
1 teaspoon Black Pepper
½ teaspoon MSG (feel free to omit)
1 Chicken stock cube
3 L of Water
- Place all the ingredients in a very large pot, with water being the last.
- Turn the heat on to medium and leave the chicken to simmer for 40 minutes to 1 hour. Turn off and leave once done.
- Dish into your hotpot set for a hot pot experience with mild chickeny goodness. Or, keep for other uses.
Spicy hotpot halal soup base
This one is not for the faint of heart. Spicy lovers rejoice though this is the spicy goodness filled halal soup base that hotpot is more known for.
Traditionally, this dish originates from Sichuan so red Sichuan peppercorns are a staple ingredient in this dish. However, it may be hard to locate Sichuan peppers or they may be expensive. Don't know where to buy them? Look on Lazada and Shopee. They have both red and green peppercorns.
But, in the spirit of making the dish easily re-creatable, we included a substitute for Sichuan peppers of black pepper and coriander. It isn't an exact replacement but it's an acceptable substitute.
5 tablespoon Cooking oil/ Rendered chicken fat
3 teaspoons Sichuan peppercorns
1 Cinnamon stick
3 Chinese cardamom pods/ Tsaoko (cracked open)
5 pieces Star anise
1 teaspoon Cloves
3 Bay leaves
5 Red dried chilies
2 inch Ginger (sliced)
8 cloves Garlic (peeled and smashed)
1 bunch Scallions (roughly chopped)
3 tablespoons Doubanjiang/ Spicy soy bean paste
3 tablespoons douchi/ fermented black soybean paste
Mild broth halal soup base (from just now)
1 handful Fresh cilantro (not chopped)
Sichuan peppercorn substitute
3 teaspoon black peppercorns
¼ teaspoon ground coriander
- Heat cooking oil/ rendered chicken fat. Add in Sichuan peppercorns/ substitute, cinnamon stick, Tsao ko/ cardamom, star anise, bay leaves, and cloves. Stir fry until fragrant.
- Add in dried chilies, ginger, and garlic. Continue to stir fry until garlic browns slightly.
- Spoon in doubanjiang/ spicy soybean paste and douchi/ fermented black soybean paste. Drop in scallions. Stir fry until bubbly then pour in pre-made broth to top.
- Bring to a boil and let simmer for 5 minutes.
- Drop in a handful of cilantro and serve.
Enjoy hotpot with your halal soup base!
Be it mild or spicy, tickle your pickle. The ball is in your court since you made it yourself. That's the best part about cooking for yourself. You call all the shots. How salty, spicy, peppery, or whichever way you want. You tweak it.
This recipe may seem intimidating, but trust me it's well worth it. And, isn't too hard once you try it out. Serve it with your choice of an array of meats, veggies, noodles, and sauces to make the most delicious pot of hotpot. That is on par with the restaurant stuff. Be sure to have friends and family over because hotpot is best enjoyed together.
The most rewarding part of cooking? Seeing other people light up because of what you cooked. And believe me, if you make homemade hotpot with this halal soup base, you'll earn the title of "hostess with the mostess".
All the best in your kitchen adventures! Making it from scratch is a real game changer. But, if making it from scratch seems a bit too taxing and maybe beyond your expertise, buy a paste. There are plenty of great hotpot soup base pastes on the market that rival homemade ones. Lee Kum Kee, Little Sheep, Lao Gan Ma, and Hai Di Lao make a really delicious paste.

The head of the Afghan opposition says his forces are poised to capture the airport in the strategic northern city of Mazar-e-sharif.
Northern Alliance President Burhanuddin Rabbani told reporters Saturday an attack could come at any time.
He said opposition soldiers have nearly surrounded the airport, near the Afghan border with Uzbekistan.
He also said opposition forces are ready to advance on Kabul -- the Afghan capital -- but said no decision to go ahead has been made.
The opposition is led chiefly by members of the former Afghanistan government, which the Taleban ousted in 1996.
The United Nations still recognizes President Rabbani as the country's legitimate leader.
U-S Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld has said the United States is helping arm and fund the Northern Alliance in its fight against the Taleban.

The 1-1 Final draw mirrored the teams' matchday 3 result, when they drew 2-2 in the group stage. It was end-to-end stuff from the kick-off, but both sides spurned a number of good opportunities to open the scoring. Rietvale took the lead through Modise in the 18th minute as Jim Matube headed the goal-bound header away, but the assistant referee adjudged it to have crossed the line.
Mohloli's Kagiso Setloane capitalized on a defensive error 4 minutes from half time as Dondolo headed the ball backwards across his own goal and the unmarked striker reacted quickly to head home past Romique Julius.
The second half produced more of the same, as both teams showed their intent to finish the match in regulation time. In the 49th minute, Mohloli's Nthuli broke into the box but was thwarted by Julius as the goalkeeper bravely dived at his feet. Isaac Stander went straight up the other end and brought out a tremendous save from Sakoane as the ball looked destined for the top corner.
The coaches made a flurry of changes, but the substitutes couldn't influence the match and went straight to a penalty shootout. After 19 consecutive penalties were scored, Romique Julius saved William Papane's shot to claim the inaugural title for Rietvale.
Benny's Sports Development and Academy took revenge for their matchday 4 defeat against Paballelo by beating the Upington side 3-1 in the 3rd/4th place playoff match. Bennys' star player Lesedi Kapinga scored a brace and Theo Phophi headed in after good work down the left wing from Lucky Manayame in the 47th minute. Andile Gqili pulled one back for Paballelo ten minutes from time, but his side then had Sinethemba Gubula sent off after a collision in the Benny's box in the last minute, ending their hopes of a comeback.
Voortrekkerhoogte and Sacred Heart College shared a 2-2 draw, with the Pretoria side scoring all 4 goals in their Gauteng Festival encounter. Voortrekkerhoogte scored first through star midfielder Don Julius, but then found themselves 2-1 down after goalkeeper Netshivhambe diverted a speculative cross into his own net and Katleho Masekoa sliced a clearance into his own goal. Voortrekkerhoogte then equalized in the 29th minute with a long-range free kick.
Hosts Sacred Heart College beat Meadowlands 2-0 thanks to goals from Kondwana Mahaka-Phiri and Phetago Siane in a Gauteng Festival fixture. Meadowlands had made all the early running, but fell behind in the 21st minute when Mahaka-Phiri seemed to hesitate in the box when played through, but tricked Sphamandla Mndawe as he jinked left and right to make space to fire home past Rodney Seshoene.
Meadowlands captain Thapelo Sibisi was given his marching orders as he picked up a second yellow card midway through the second half, giving his side a mountain to climb. Sacred Heart picked up a second goal to kill off the contest when goalkeeper Seshoene conceded an unnecessary corner and unmarked striker Phetogo Siane powered in a header at the far post from the resultant centre.
There was one other Gauteng Festival fixture on the day - a Soweto Derby - which saw Orlando High School beat Meadowlands High 2-1.
Idols star Lloyd Cele was on hand to entertain the crowd, which contained a host of dignitaries including the Minister of Sport & Recreation, the Hon Fikile Mbalula, SASFA President Mandla Mazibuko, SASCOC President Gideon Sam, SuperSport CEO Happy Ntshingila and music legend Sipho 'Hotstix' Mabuse.
The following individual accolades were handed out:
Goalkeeper of the Tournament – Thato Sakoane (Mohloli)
Golden Boot – Clifton Pretorius (Rietvale), having scored 4 goals
Player of the Tournament – Isaac Stander (Rietvale)

Petition for review after the Court of Appeal affirmed an order denying a petition to compel arbitration. This case includes the following issue: Does the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. § 2), as interpreted in AT&T Mobility LLC v. Concepcion (2011) 563 U.

California Supreme Court To Review Concepcion's Impact On The Armendariz Balancing Test: Sanchez v. Valencia Holding Co. LLC
On March 21, 2012, the California Supreme Court granted review of the Second District's decision in Sanchez v. Valencia Holding Co., LLC, 201 Cal. App. 4th 74 (2011) – previously discussed here – which upheld a denial of a motion to compel arbitration in a proposed CLRA class action. Although the trial court had denied the defendant's motion on the grounds that the class action waiver was unenforceable because it violated statutory rights under the CLRA, the Court of Appeal did not affirm the trial court's order on these grounds, finding instead that the arbitration agreement as a whole was unconscionable under the Armendariz balancing test (which the Court concluded continues to survive notwithstanding Concepcion). The California Supreme Court appears to be poised to evaluate this proposition, stating the issue on review is as follows:

About Bachelor Gulch
Bachelor Gulch Village has a long, rich history named fondly after a few lonely bachelors who settled in this little pristine and secluded valley in the early 1900's. This exclusive gated community is part of Beaver Creek Mountain, located on the adjoining ridge and part of the village-to-village ski experience between Beaver Creek Resort, Bachelor Gulch and Arrowhead. It is the only residential ski neighborhood entirely on-mountain in the Vail Valley. As a Bachelor Gulch Village homeowner, you can sit back and take in the panoramic views of the Gore Range to the east all the way to Castle Peak in the west. Once you pass through the private gates, you can admire the picturesque parkitecture, which the resort is known for, with rustic native stone, seasoned timbers and massive logs modeled after the iconic lodges found in national parks like Yosemite and Yellowstone. Visit The Ritz-Carlton®, the keystone of the resort, to experience fine dining at Spago, Wolfgang Puck's Colorado outpost, or pamper yourself at their outstanding newly renovated spa. This prestigious on-mountain community is for those who wish to live life luxuriously and appreciate what the early settlers understood over a century ago about this special place now called Bachelor Gulch Village.

It took me a while to get to a safe spot at the beach. I was tired, but worried about Anya's safety. She hasn't woke up, or made an involuntarily move since I got her out of the Kraken's wrath. With my trembling arms I managed to place her on the sand, hoping that she'll be okay. By instinct I touch her delicate face with my wet hands, praying the Lord that it weren't too late.
"Please, please Anya…" I said with mixed feelings. "You can do this. You can't die here, please…"
Then I feel a presence behind me, staring at us. I turn around and see Anne's upper body staring at us in sadness. By that time I felt my tears rolling my face as I let out a huge scream of frustration. I wanted to speak, curse the moment I decided to create all the lies about the treasure that turned out to be real. At this moment I simply wished that I died during my first encounter with the pirates. But no, I had to lie and instinctively find a way to survive such horrible destiny.
Anne looked at me in silence for five minutes. "You truly love her."
"Oh shut up, it was a debt! I owed her my life. I should've been the one who died! Not her!" I said in rage as she lowered her head. "All of this because of this stupid treasure! If only I had told the truth. If only I had made everything right. She…she…"
"She would've ended up with someone she doesn't love." Anne said. "Don't blame yourself for the kind of life she chose to live. Besides, the treasure is real after all."
"I never wanted it. I never wanted this, I only wanted to have a normal life as a sailor but this happened and now…Now I'm all alone."
Anne stood silent for many minutes as I kept on mourning Anya's death. Suddenly, someone came closer to us and kneeled. I looked around only to see Anne in her human form, taking Anya's knife and looking at her with determination.
"What are you…?" I said before she made a painful gasp as she cut her hand. Blood was coming out of it as she quickly reached a cracked coconut to use it as a cup. I watched how the blood filled it as she murmured strange words in a weird dialect. Then she went to the sea, grabbed a small amount of water and started mixing it up as she spoke.
"Make her drink it." She said as she returned, giving me the cup. "She must drink it all."
"What is this?" I asked.
"A forbidden ability our kind has. It's only used for those who deserve it. Usually is made between a human and a mermaid, and there are no witnesses."
She looked to her. "Her blood's not worthy of this, but yours is." She placed the cup in my hand before kissing me again. "We should've met under different circumstances, but I guess destiny has different plans for us."
And with that she went into the sea and disappeared. I stood in shock for a moment before looking down at the cup she gave me. Then I gave it to Anya and made her drink it all. "Hope this works out well, come on Anya."
After five minutes of waiting, her face moved as she started coughing, spilling water out of her mouth as I lift her up so she could be more comfortable. Her big eyes wandered in confusion before landing into mines. "What…what happened?"
"You're back…" was all I managed to say while mentally thanking Anne for what she did. Anya smiled at me before we hugged each other for a moment. "I thought I lost you."
"I thought ya' dead. How come…" she asked while remembering everything. After all the explanation I gave to her, she gave me a look of determination before standing up.
"The bloody Treasure of Death. Who would've thought, right?!" she said as she stared into the sunset, placing her arms on her hips. "Now what?"
"I thought you had an idea." I replied, earning an amused looked from her as she turned around gracefully.
"I came back from the dead ya' know. Ya' gotta give me a break." She said before we both started laughing. "Ah, a good pile of rum would be nice at this hour."
"I guess so"
"Ya' guess so?!" she laughed. "Ya're surely not from this world."
"Well, I can breathe underwater thanks to a mermaid."
We stood in silence, processing the whole situation we were in.
"Ma' father's ship should be somewhere."
"If the kraken hasn't sunk it already."
"Such a pessimistic lad!" she got up. "Come on, we gotta leave this place before it kills us. The sea is callin'g us mate!" she made a few steps before realizing that I wasn't following her. "Ya' alright?!"
"Is just…" I hesitated for a moment. "Where are we going? There's no map, no tale to follow. And I almost lost you, forever. I don't know if o could live with that if it happens again."
"We no longer have a debt Henry. We're free to travel the Seven Seas with our own crew." She said while giving me her hand. "We can conquer all the treasures we want."
"But I don't want any treasure. I want something else…" I replied while turning around to watch the horizon. "I want to know what and why am I like this. I want…"
"To know the truth about ya' parents…" she said while sighing. "Well, we can go there but we need a crew."
"Why do you insist so much in a crew?!"
"Every sailor has to have a crew even for the craziest of adventures. Come on, don't shy away from the destiny that's been bringin' us together." She said while smiling. I stared at her for a while, watching how she expected me to take her hand and follow her lead.
But it was now or never. I took her hand and suddenly pulled her closer to me and kissed her passionately. She was in shock at first but then she kissed me back. Tangling my hands in her hair I made a slight pressure so I could know that this moment was real and not any crazy dream. We broke the kiss once we were out of air and stared into each other's eyes.
"I needed to do it." I said quickly as I caressed her cheek.
"Took ya' long enough. I had to die for ya' to realize how ya' feel towards me?" she teased as I laughed awkwardly.
"I promise next time I won't take that long." I replied as we started walking away to find the ship.
"Ya' better!"
