OCZ talk about Fatal1ty RAM, DIY notebooks and MXM
COMPUTEX TAIPEI 2008 We are back at OCZ for the second time and this time the new Fatal1ty RAM has been released some good specs and the man himself has put his name to them, so they must be good - right? The Fatal1ty RAM that was on display was 1GB PC2-8500 with timings of 5-5-5 at 2.2 volts.
We do look forward to testing them soon to see just what these modules offer over other memory from OCZ.
DIY notebooks are a great concept and can prove to be a great way to build a system using parts you want.
But far more interesting is what OCZ plan to do about the graphics cards in notebooks. They are going to start producing MXM graphics cards, which is good news for people who want to be able to upgrade the GPU in notebooks.
It will be interesting to see if this actually happens as NVIDIA first introduced this technology years ago and it never really took off.

Atom Netbooks keep popping up - Medion Akoya 10.2"
COMPUTEX TAIPEI 2008 German company Medion also had its rather tidy looking Akoya sub-notebook hidden away at the Microsoft booth in Hall 3 today.
It's another low-cost system to add to the list that want to take ASUS' Eee PC out of top spot.
It has been fitted out with an 10.2-inch WSVGA screen that provides a widescreen resolution of 1024 x 600. Like the Gigabyte Netbook 912 sitting right next it at the show like best buddies, it also fits in a new Atom 1.6GHz processor and was also installed with Windows XP SP3 - we weren't able to confirm if it will run Vista but it probably will since it is spec'ed close to the Gigabyte Netbook.
It gets 1GB DDR2-667 memory, also an 80GB SSD, optional 1.3MP camera, HD audio and is powered by a 3-cell battery. It is lighter than the Netbook 912 slightly and comes it at under a kilogram. As with most of these Netbooks, it gets three USB 2.0 ports and a card reader.
The big surprise with this little puppy is that it packs in not only a gigabit Ethernet port but also 802.11n wireless for faster transfers over the airwaves.
This is definitely one Netbook to keep a rather close eye on!

GIGABYTE's Atom Netbook 912 exclusively right here
COMPUTEX TAIPEI 2008 Nothing can stay hidden forever.
We are not sure exactly what the marketing folks who in charge of GIGABYTE's low-cost PC are doing but by accident we stumbled upon GIGABYTE's Atom N270 based Netbook 912 today while chatting to Microsoft in Hall 3.
Our mouths started watering at all this new hardware goodness, Microsoft got nervous and things started to go wrong.
We have known that GIGABYTE intended on producing an Eee PC challenger for many months now but getting any type of details on it proved to be like getting blood from a stone. All that doesn't matter now - we bring you an exclusive look at the convertible tablet 912 in more detail than ever seen before.
First, it's important to note that the system we played with today is by no means finished but it is close. We saw it running Vista briefly but then it crashed. After trying to get it to boot back up, it failed and then we couldn't get it to POST at all. We can confirm though that it was running a 1.6GHz Atom processor - you can see that by the picture we snapped below. We got a screenshot of another 912 running XP and as you can see the single cored Atom 1.6GHz with Hyper Threading enabled and working just fine under the older OS.
If you like specs and that type of thing, this little sub-notebook baby packs in an 8.9-inch screen rendering a maximum resolution of 1280 x 768, it gets 1GB DDR2-533 memory, 80GB of SSD goodness, 1.3MP camera, 802.11g wireless, 10/100 networking and it will first ship with Windows XP but it will be capable of running Windows Vista, if that's more your style.
It comes with a 4-cell 7.2 volt 4500mah battery and it weighs 1.2kg. After picking it up, we were surprised at how cool it was on the surface. Compared to the other solutions in the vicinity, the Netbook 912 was very cool operating considering it has been running all day during the show - the Atom and SSD inside might have had something to do with that...
Interestingly Microsoft at their booth was pushing the marketing message that "It's better with Windows". Redmond says that is the operating that customers know and trust, that's easy to use and compatible with their world (ED: is this correct?!)
We got another new Netbook coming right up which liked hiding out, too.

An up-close look at the Atom based ASUS Eee PC 901
COMPUTEX TAIPEI 2008 We stopped by Intel this morning who had plenty of spicy hardware behind closed doors, all of which you are about to see.
We're going to kick off our coverage from the Intel hotel suite with a close up look at an Eee PC 901 from ASUS. We got a chance to play around with it briefly but weren't allowed to take any screenshots or run any sort of tests as at that stage it wasn't officially released.
Now it has been released in to the wild this morning here in Taipei, we can give you a good close-up look at it!
We have more very interesting shiny new products coming up from Intel in just a moment - stay tuned to this channel!

ASUS Eee PC from Taipei - 901 and 1000 are alive!
COMPUTEX TAIPEI 2008 With the major boost to the sub-notebook market with ASUS' release of the Eee 900 in 2008, they have to step up their game as the other sharks head in for the feeding frenzy.
The 901 brings us some newer features to the classic 900 design including the new Intel Atom processor, SSD storage up to 20GB (Linux) and 12GB (Windows XP).
One noted feature of the new Eee PC series is the super Hybrid engine concept that controls stepping of the Atom processor to increase battery life up to 7.8 hours.
The Eee PC 1000 and 1000H are the new 10-inch versions, sporting the Atom processor and SSD's of up to 40GB (Linux, Eee PC 1000) as well an 80GB standard HDD (XP, Eee PC 1000H).
The keyboard is purportedly 92% the size of a standard keyboard and the battery life has been increased using a 6-cell design that helps boost lifespan.
A quick boot comparison with the 900 and the 901 shows that the Atom is noticeably slower, which could be due to a number of factors and we hope to be able to bring you benchmarks in the near future.
ASUS still has one more ace up their sleeve with the E-stick! Essentially it's a Wii-mote for the PC... and that's it. Useful for navigation and gaming, it works just like a Wii-mote with an 8-way d-stick, 2 buttons and accelerometers to detect gestures.
ASUS brought out their CEO to speak to the assembled press and talked about developing the Eee PC as a family. They basically want everyone to have an Eee PC as a second PC in the next few years. An ambitious goal but they have show they are listening to their consumers by releasing the new models.
Also of interest is the multiple color-ways and designs available for each of the models. "Sakura", "Sweet Pea", "Urban Metropolis", "White Peony", "Pearl White" and "Fine Ebony".
More from Taiwan soon!

WORLD EXCLUSIVE: GeCube's 10.2" Eee PC competitor
COMPUTEX TAIPEI 2008 We are happy to bring you a truly world exclusive of GeCube's Eee PC competitor.
We have heard rumors about it the news for a month or two but nothing official. We can tell you that GeCube was planning a 10.4-inch model that didn't go to plan and instead they are reverting to a 10.2-inch model that will be OEM'ed out too anyone interested.
Inside said system is going to reside a VIA C7-D processor running at 1.6GHz (so not the new Nano but newer models probably will), Internal 64KB - L1 & 128KB - L2 cache memory and 400MHz FSB. It will be outfitted with DDR2 533 512 MB RAM with an additional single SODIMM slot expansion to 1024MB if required.
As far as the all important screen goes, it will be capable of a resolution of 1024 x 600. An 80GB 2.5" SATA hard will be packed in along with two speakers that output Intel HD audio. Included in the mix is 10/100 Ethernet, 802.11g wireless, a triplet of USB 2.0 ports.
As far as dimensions go, it comes in at 275mm (Width) x 188mm (Height) x 32mm (Depth) and weighs in at 1.5KG. It will come with gOS installed but it also supports Windows XP if you want it.
Can it compete at the same level as the ASUS Eee PC? That remains to be seen and price will be a big factor, which we weren't told about yet but we do look forward to getting one in for some full testing.
We would have honestly preferred to see GeCube wait a little and go with either an Atom, Nano or Tegra chip but it was a race against the clock before Computex begin nevertheless we are going to pay super close attention to GeCube to see what they come out with from now on.

Up close with MSI WIND desktop in Taipei
Following on from our extreme close up look at the MSI WIND notebook, now we check out the WIND PC desktop in as much detail or more. MSI wants you to "Ride with the Wind!" Shall we?
As far as specifications go, we can tell you that models we saw on display in Taipei this afternoon were using a new Intel CPU, 1GB DDR2-533 memory, 160GB SATA hard disk drive, Gigabit Ethernet, DVD combo drive and 65-watt power adapter.
MSI WIND PC desktops are powered by their Micro-ATX based MS-7314 Wind Board motherboard which is passively cooled with a large aluminum heatsink covering the Northbridge and CPU. The board is nothing special with normal capacitors (not Japanese made solid capacitors), two DIMM slots for a total of 2GB memory in dual channel mode, two SATA-II ports for HDD and DVD combo drive, one PCI slot which could be used for an old sound card or TV tuner and finally an IDE port which could be used for an old hard disk drive for additional storage space.
MSI was demonstrating the WIND PC playing back 720p video and it managed to do it fairly smoothly for the most part. As you can see from the pictures it was using up around 45 - 55% CPU for video playback. When asked if it is powerful enough to playback 1080p video, MSI said that WIND PC is not ready for 1080p video at the moment but didn't rule it out for newer and faster models in the future.
As far as power consumption goes, it excels with flying colors. For starters it has gained Energy Star 4.0 compliance which not many computers can claim at this stage and in the demo MSI was showing, it was using just 30 watts of power with a 1.6GHz processor - we were told that the MSI WIND PC will use no more than 35 watts. It was compared side by side with a full sized desktop PC (we didn't get the specs but we'll assume it was a gaming PC) that was chewing up a total of 242 watts of power. MSI said during its presentation that if you switched over to a WIND PC from a regular desktop computer that you could save $3900 NTD (or $134 USD) per year on electricity bill in Taiwan.
MSI had many WIND PCs on display in varying colors and styles. Take a look for yourself...
More coming up a little later!

Extreme close up with MSI WIND notebooks
During the MSI ECOlution press conference in Taipei this afternoon, MSI let press get up close and personal with its full line of upcoming products.
You've seen MSI's WIND notebooks pictures online before now but not in this sort of detail.
We over heard someone from MSI being asked when the WIND notebook will begin selling. Someone suggested one month but the MSI representative said that would not be quite enough time. So, I guess it is still going to be a month or so until you'll be able to buy one. MSI did give away two of these small new notebooks to a couple local Taiwanese press members and took their details for delivery later, so they couldn't be too far off.
Exact specifications on the model we saw were not disclosed but we can tell you they are the U100 model and come in a whole bunch of different colors (we saw pink, red, black and white but we are told there will be more) 10-inch models fitted with an Intel Atom CPU, DDR2-667 memory with Windows XP installed.
Anyway, we'll let the pictures do the talking and there are a whole stack of them. Go!
MSI WIND PC is up next!

ASUS has Atom powered Eee PC planned
In the lead up to Computex Taipei next month we are seeing things really starting to spice up from our Taiwanese computer company buddies.
Just yesterday news leaked out about MSI's ASUS Eee Box competitor featuring an Intel Atom processor as well as full pricing details for MSI's Wind PC and now today we see reports that ASUS is preparing yet another Eee PC sub-notebook with model name 901.
MSI is positioning its Eee PC competitor very aggressively in the US market at $399 and it does seem as if ASUS has acted very quickly. Blogeee.net managed to get (or be purposely given) press shots of the ASUS Eee PC 901. It is said to include a new motherboard with an Intel Atom processor presumably clocked at 1.6GHz like the Wind and it has the same screen size and other specs as the Eee PC 900.
It does have some subtle cosmetic changes such as shortcut buttons above the keyboard and the power and audio ports have been changed as well as the Kensington lock in a better position.
There are no details on exact release date yet but ASUS does have some work to do to reduce the price by $150 USD to bring it in line with the slated RRP for MSI's Wind in the US.

OCZ to enter DIY notebook market
OCZ have been making a big push into new areas of the computing market over the past few years, moving into segments that include graphics cards, power supplies, coolers, memory cards and SSDs.
Their focus has now turned to the notebook market, and they plan to enter it in a rather interesting way. A little later this year OCZ plan to release their first Do-It-Yourself gaming notebook, whereby the buyer has more control over customizing the systems' specs with a range of components of his/her choice to better suit their requirements.
Although the shell/base notebook itself is one we've seen used by other vendors in the past, it's good to see OCZ enter the notebook market in this fashion. With a little experience under their belt I'm sure we'll be seeing some very serious and competitive models show up.
While most people know OCZ Technology as a memory company, it has recently branched out into many sector of the computing market. OCZ's portfolio has now expanded to include video cards, power supplies, memory cards and solid-state drives (SSDs).
OCZ hopes to branch out even further with the announcement of a new do-it-yourself (DIY) gaming notebook. End-users will be able to purchase the DIY notebook barebones and add components to the machine to build an entire system. OCZ venders, however, will be able to spec the notebooks however they see fit.

Not too bad of an achievement, I got lucky though. My target happened to also be my pursuer's pursuer lol. We all ended up in the same area; my target killed my pursuer, and then I swooped in and killed my target lol.

Please sign and return the last page to ASK so we have a record that you are familiar with ASK Procedures and Policies. Thank you for your cooperation. "ASK will build relationships based on trust, responsibility and respect." 1 SCHOLAR RESPONSIBILITIES Appropriate disciplines and behavior policies at ASK are outlined in the scholar handbook. Any additions, revisions, change, or deletions will be the responsibility of the General Manager (GM). 2 EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EDUCATION Every scholar has the right and has access to a public education. No scholar (Scholar)will be subjected to discrimination, harassment, or obstacles to his or her democratic right to benefit from a public education. ASK will not allow the following forms of discrimination based on religion, culture, ethnicity, race, sex, sexual orientation, political beliefs, disabilities, or the scholars within this policy. This also includes marital status and pregnancy. ASK will observe all provisions of section 504 and ADA. 3 LOTTERY POLICY Please refer to Policy kept in the GM Office and given to parents upon request. 4 COMPULSORY ATTENDANCE POLICY Please refer to State Policy which is kept in the office of the GM and given to parents upon request. 5 UNIFORMS The ASK Academy Charter School requires all Scholars (Students) to wear a prescribed uniform. ASK is a Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics institution; the school is a pipeline for STEM careers and educational programs. ASK has developed a Dress for Success uniform policy to improve the learning environment and train the scholars of the importance of making first 2 The Ask Academy Scholar Handbook 2011-2012 impressions in these professional fields and careers. An important consideration in the uniform policy is safety and the type of work that ASK scholars perform during the school day. The uniform is important as scholars are designing and producing products, analyzing chemical reactions, and studying the effects of microbes in the micro-biology lab. These are examples of activities that require professional wardrobe. The Uniform Policy will be enforced during all school days that The ASK Academy is in session. The ASK Dress for Success Uniform is mandatory for all scholars. There will be specifically indentified days during the school year that are designated for special wardrobe choices, such as: jeans day, funny hat days, ASK sponsored competitions day, sports day, etc. These days can be organized by the scholar's council, but must be ASK executive council sanctioned. Tops: Scholars must wear an ASK polo, with ASK logo, purchased from the sole ASK vendor that identifies them with the career pathway they are members of. See ASK Administration for location of this vendor. Engineering & Design Colors: Cobalt-Blue/Lucky Penny Biomedical Science Colors: True Green/Royal Amethyst These polo shirts will not be overly baggy. Shoulder seams must be at the shoulders, and shirts cannot hang down below mid thigh level. Jackets will not qualify as a replacement to an ASK polo. Jackets may be worn as long as they are not excessively baggy, shoulder seams are at the shoulders, and jackets cannot hang below mid thigh level (tips of fingertips when arms are at sides). If worn inside, jackets must allow full view of dress requirements. Text on jackets or backpacks, (or items on attached to jackets or backpacks), that promote violence, alcohol, gangs, tobacco or drugs is prohibited and clothing that is associated with a gang is not permitted. (Determination made by ASK administration). Bottoms: Allowable colors of pants are Khaki and Black. No excessive "sagging or baggy" pants are allowed (to be determined by the ASK administration and staff) 3 The Ask Academy Scholar Handbook 2011-2012 Inseam of pant must be where legs and torso join. Denim pants are allowed on the specially designated denim days only. No Shorts, Skorts, Skirts or Cargo Pants Other: Scholars must wear closed toe shoes at the Academy. No slippers allowed Clothing, jewelry, or appearances that are determined by the administration/staff and or faculty to be distractive to the learning environment will not be permitted. No head wear (hats) allowed inside the Academy. There may be exceptions based on religion which would be reviewed by the ASK GM. The faculty, staff and administration of ASK reserve the sole right to interpret and enforce the Dress for Success Uniform policy. Parents of scholars who violate the Uniform Policy will be required to pick up their children with one hour of notification by ASK, unless other arrangements with administration is made, to return home for compliance with the Uniform Policy. Failure to do so may result in disenrollment from The ASK Academy. 6 DISCIPLINE Please refer to Policy Manual kept in the office of the GM and given to parents upon request. The scholars at ASK will uphold the values of respect and tolerance in their everyday attitudes with all staff and scholars at ASK. The GM will oversee any situations where scholars are in ethical violation and respect and tolerance are not observed. Hazing will not be permitted as any condition in the membership of any organization or group at ASK. Discipline violations will be handled on an individual basis. Each teacher will establish clear and precise classroom expectations, boundaries, and consequences for scholar behavior. When the classroom teacher cannot mediate or resolve a behavior conflict the Counselor shall intervene. The final level of action regarding discipline will reside with the GM. All State and Federal due process laws for scholars will be followed in accordance with New Mexico Statute 22-5-4.3 "School Discipline Policies." The Board of Directors (ASK SCHOOL BOARD) "shall establish discipline policies and file them with the New Mexico Public Education Department." 4 The Ask Academy Scholar Handbook 2011-2012 The school will also involve parents, school personnel, and scholars in the development of these policies. 7 USE OF TOBACCO PRODUCTS/ ILLEGAL DRUGS Please refer to the ASK Policy Manual which is kept in the office of the GM and given to parents upon request. In the interest of preserving the health and safety of all the scholars, ASK intends to maintain a smoke-free, drug-free environment. Smoking is prohibited as well as the use of any tobacco product anywhere on or near school property or at school events off campus. Also prohibited are selling, possessing, using, or being under the influence of illegal drugs, alcohol, or other controlled substances, or imitations of such substances, or being in possession of paraphernalia associated with drug use anywhere on or near school property or at school events off campus. Any scholar who is found to be in violation of the school's policy against smoking and drug use will be subject to immediate disciplinary action, up to and including disenrollment. Scholars who face disenrollment for violation of these rules may request a hearing before the Discipline Committee. Disciplinary Procedures will result in suspensions, referrals to ASK Substance abuse counseling and even expulsion. ASK will be in full compliance with the State Board Regulation 81-3 that prohibits scholars from using, possessing, distributing or trafficking alcohol or other harmful and illegal substances on school property, at school, or at school activities. 8 Search and Interrogation ASK reserves the legal right to search school property, facilities, and scholar belongings when there are just and reasonable grounds to do so. Scholars may not be interrogated by any person not employed by ASK and without approval of the GM. 9 Suspension and Expulsion of Scholars All suspensions will be carried out in accordance with the Scholar Handbook. All Final decisions regarding suspension shall be handled by the GM. ASK will contact the parents/guardian in a timely process and include the parents/ guardian in all suspension or expulsion proceedings. 5 The Ask Academy Scholar Handbook 2011-2012 Any scholar of ASK will be entitled to due process when in violation of the school's discipline policies. There will be timely notification to law enforcement authorities of situations that are violations of criminal law and/or behaviors that are reportable by federal, state, or local law. ASK will comply with the GUN-FREE SCHOOLS ACT. ASK will comply with all scholar records management and retention procedures. 10 Scholar Possession of a Firearm/Weapon If a scholar is found to be in possession of a firearm or weapon at school or at a school related function the GM will take the appropriate steps to handle the situation. The scholar will be automatically and immediately expelled from ASK and referred to a law enforcement agency. ASK will comply with all applicable state, federal, and local laws regarding firearms and weapons. ANY SCHOLAR BRINGING A GUN TO SCHOOL WILL BE EXPELLED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE GUN-FREE SCHOOL ACT OF 1994. Scholars will not possess or use firearms, weapons, or any other instruments capable of harming a person or property. Weapons include, but are not limited to guns, chains, knives, clubs, rocks, etc. or any object that can result in injury, harm, or property damage. Possession of a weapon on campus is grounds for expulsion for up to two years. Any scholar possessing a weapon will be immediately suspended and recommended for expulsion. SCHOLARS WHO HAVE BEEN EXPELLED FROM OTHER PUBLIC SCHOOLS FOR WEAPONS VIOLATIONS CANNOT ENROLL AT THE ASK ACADEMY UNTIL THEY HAVE SERVED THE ENTIRE TERM OF THEIR EXPULSION. 11 HIV/AIDS Please refer to the ASK Policy Manual which is kept in the office of the GM and given to parents upon request. Human immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), the virus that causes the Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) is not transmitted through everyday casual contact. It is the position of ASK that scholars infected with HIV attend school in an unrestricted manner. The school will observe all HIV/AIDS related provisions in section 504 and the ADA. 12 Record Confidentiality The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) regulations protect the privacy of scholars concerning the access and release of scholar records maintained at schools. FERPA also gives parents rights with respect to those 6 The Ask Academy Scholar Handbook 2011-2012 records. The rights transfer solely to the scholar, or former scholar, who has reached the age of 18. ASK must have permission from the parent/guardian before releasing any information from a scholar's records. ASK reserves the right to disclose a scholar's record without parental consent, to ASK employees and other schools to which a scholar is transferring, specific government officials, accrediting organizations, officials with court orders and subpoenas, and to persons needing to know medical information regarding safety issues. Parents have the right to inspect, review, amend, or correct inaccurate or misleading information within the record. The parent is entitled to a formal hearing if ASK chooses not to amend the record, and the parent may file a letter of protest in the record if the record is not amended after the formal hearing. ASK respects the privacy of scholar records and recognizes that only pertinent and factual information should be contained in the permanent records of scholars. ASK has adopted policies to insure the rights of parents and scholars over 18 years of age to review scholar records and to limit the amount of scholar record information that can be made available to people or agencies outside ASK. Parents of scholars under 18 years of age have the right to review and challenge the content of your scholar records. Scholars 18 years old or older, have the right to review and challenge the content of their own records. 13 TARDIES The teacher reserves the right to determine whether a scholar is tardy. All scholars who are tardyat the beginning of the school day must sign in at the office before reporting to class. If tardies become habitual there will be a scholar/ parent conference to address the situation. 14 LEAVING CAMPUS DUE TO ILLNESS Scholars who become ill during the school day must get permission from a teacher to go to the office and obtain parental permission before leaving campus. Any scholar needing to leave the ASK campus due to illness must sign out. Leaving the ASK campus without checking out through the office is considered truancy. SCHOLARS WILL BE RELEASED ONLY TO THOSE PERSONS NAMED IN THE SCHOLAR EMERGENCY CONTACT INFORMATION AND ON THE SCHOLAR PICKUP LIST. 7 The Ask Academy Scholar Handbook 2011-2012 15 ARRIVAL/ DEPARTURE FROM CAMPUS PROCEDURE Scholars have two options for lunch: 1. Eat at The ASK Academy Facility 2. Scholar may leave campus for lunch ONLY if they have a signed Off- Campus Permission Form signed by their parents. Scholars may NOT drive vehicles during the lunch period. Scholars are expected to return to class on time or they are subject to Lunch Detention, In-School Suspension (I.S.S.), or losing their off-campus lunch privilege. When it is time to leave school, the PARENT OR DESIGNATED PERSON listed on the PERMISSION TO PICKUP FORM must sign out in the office. Leaving campus without doing so is considered truant. SCHOLARS WILL BE RELEASED ONLY TO THOSE PERSONS NAMED IN THE SCHOLAR EMERGENCY CONTACT INFORMATION AND ON THE PERMISSION TO PICKUP LIST (Pickup person must show identification). If a scholar comes to school late or returns to campus that day, the PARENT OR DESIGNATED PERSON listed on the PERMISSION TO PICKUP FORM must sign-in at the office before the scholar returns to class. If the parent or designated person does not sign the scholar in, the scholar will received an unexcused absence or tardy. 16 MEDICATION GUIDELINES In order to protect all scholars ALL Medications, including both prescription and over-the-counter medications, must be registered with the school Health Room. This includes medications kept in the Health Room and those carried by the scholar. ASK will provide over-the-counter medications like acetaminophen (ex: Tylenol), ibuprofen (ex: Advil, Motrin), antacids (ex: Tums), cough drops, etc. if a parent/guardian has signed the Over-the-counter Medication Authorization Form for the current school year. If a scholar must take a prescription medication at school, the Medication Authorization Form must be completed by a physician EVERY YEAR. If a scholar must take an over the counter medication at school which the school does not provide or a prescription medication for a short period of time, an Over-the-Counter/Short Term Prescription Form must be 8 The Ask Academy Scholar Handbook 2011-2012 completed for the period of time the medication needs to be taken at school for the period of time the medication needs to be taken at school. If a scholar has asthma, an Asthma Action Plan must be completed by a physician EVERY YEAR. If a scholar has allergic reactions which may require an EpiPen, an EpiPen Authorization Form must be completed by a physician EVERY YEAR. ASK will provide a locked storage area for all medications scholars need to take at school, whether it be prescription or over-the-counter. All medications must be in their original container, this goes for both prescription and over-the-counter medications. See the ASK Health Room personnel for necessary paperwork or if you have questions. 17 IDENTIFICATION CARDS Scholars will be issued ASK Identification cards and should carry the cards with them at all times when they are at school. If a scholar loses their identification card, they must purchase another one for a fee. 18 VISITORS ASK has a NO VISITOR POLICY so scholars are not allowed to bring other scholars who are not enrolled at ASK on campus during the regular school day. Other adult visitors are required to sign in and sign out through the front office. Parents are always welcome at ASK, but should receive permission from the GM if they would like to be on-campus during the regular school day. 19. PARENT VOLUNTEERS AND BACKGROUND CHECKS Parent Volunteers are welcome at ASK to participate in scholar activities such as field trips and assisting teachers with projects. Parents, however, must complete a $12.00 notarized Department of Public Safety Background Check in order to volunteer to chaperone or volunteer at the ASK Academy on a regular basis. The Background Check form may be obtained through the main office. 9 The Ask Academy Scholar Handbook 2011-2012 20. SCHOLAR PARKING A parking permit must be obtained to park at school. There is NO fee for the permit and only one permit per scholar will be issued. All scholars' vehicles must be registered through the office with proof of driver's license, registration, and insurance. This does not guarantee the scholar a parking place. Any vehicle that does not display a parking pass will be treated as a non- registered vehicle. If a vehicle is illegally parked, or if a vehicle does not have a permit, the school has the right to have the vehicle towed and impounded. Towing expenses, fines and accrued storage fees are the responsibility of the vehicle owner. Parking privileges can be revoked if a scholar is speeding, or exhibiting any unsafe vehicle operation. SCHOLARS MAY NOT DRIVE THEIR VEHICLES OFF-CAMPUS FOR LUNCH. 21 SCHOLAR DISRUPTION OF THE EDUCATION PROCESS Scholar at ASK, enjoy the right to a quality education, free from unnecessary disruptions and distractions. The ASK community, including scholars, parents, faculty and staff share in the responsibility of maintaining a respectful campus environment. The administration, teaching staff and others have the responsibility to determine when scholar's behavior is inappropriate and disruptive, or in violation of local school rules or regulations set forth by the ASK School Board. 22. GOOD NEIGHBOR All scholars will demonstrate the ASK's Trust Responsibility and Respect attitudes to the community from the time a scholar leaves home in the morning until the scholar arrives home after school; including lunch time, field trips, and off campus activities. 23 PUBLIC DISPLAYS OF AFFECTION Any inappropriate displays of affection will be determined by the GM/Staff. Holding hands is appropriate. Staff will initiate the preliminary discipline steps before filing an incident report. 24. DESTRUCTION OR THEFT OF PROPERTY The destruction, theft or vandalism of any school or personal property is prohibited. 10 The Ask Academy Scholar Handbook 2011-2012 25. FIGHTING/MUTUAL COMBAT Please refer to Bullying Prevention Policy kept in the Office of the GM and given to parents upon request. As with all other rules that are broken at ASK, fighting among scholars is subject to consequences determined by The ASK GM. It is the belief of ASK that different situations call for different consequences; therefore, any rule that has been violated will be considered on a CASE-BY-CASE BASIS. Parents will be contacted and required to attend a mandatory mediation meeting with their child where an appropriate consequence will be determined for the scholars involved in the incident. Although we believe that suspension has a negative academic effect on scholars, we also recognize that suspension may be necessary in the event of persistent misbehavior. Scholars shall not fight, push, intimidate or otherwise abuse other scholars. For the purpose of reprimand, suspension and expulsion, fighting/mutual combat/intimidation shall include but not be limited to the following types of conduct: Behavior that intentionally, knowingly or recklessly causes physical injury to another person. Behavior that intentionally places another person in reasonable fear of immediate physical injury. Intending to injure, insult or provoke another person by knowingly touching him/her. Acting together (two or more scholars) in a way that recklessly uses force or violence or threatens to use force or violence that disturbs the normal operation of the school, or a school sponsored activity or threatens to create disruption or injury to scholars, guests or employees of the school. Engaging in fighting, violent or seriously disruptive behavior. Making unreasonable noises, use of abusive or offensive language or gestures to another scholar in any manner likely to provoke physical retaliation. Making protracted commotion, utterances or displays with the effect of preventing the orderly administration of the school. Refusing to obey a reasonable order of an employee of ASK Academy. Threatening by word or conduct to cause physical injury to another person or serious damage to property. 11 The Ask Academy Scholar Handbook 2011-2012 Threatening to use or using physical force against another in response to a verbal statement. Scholars who violate this policy are subject to a five (5) to (9) nine- day suspension. The second offense will result in the scholar being suspended long-term from ASK Academy. A review for re- enrollment may take place by the board after one semester. 26. SEXUAL MISCONDUCT Inappropriate public displays of affection or sexual misconduct are prohibited. 27. SEXUAL HARASSMENT Sexual harassment of or by any scholar is prohibited. Prohibited harassment includes, but is not limited to; unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors and other verbal, visual or physical conduct of a sexual nature. 28. RACIAL OR OTHER HARASSMENT Racial and other harassment based on race, color, religion, gender, national origin, age or disability is prohibited. Harassment is defined to include, but is not limited to, verbal or physical conduct that creates an intimidating, hostile or offensive school environment or that which unreasonably interferes with a scholar's work performance. 29. GANG ASSOCIATION OR ACTIVITY For the purposes of disciplinary action, a gang shall be defined as a group of three or more people who have a name, claim a territory, have rivals/enemies, interact together to the exclusion of others and exhibit anti- social behavior often associated with crime or threat to the community. Behavior that initiates advocates or promotes activities that threaten the safety or well being of others will not be tolerated. 30. VERBAL ABUSE OF STAFF Scholars shall not insult or verbally abuse staff members. 31. PHYSICAL ABUSE OF STAFF Scholars shall not intimidate or physically abuse school staff. Staff may use reasonable restraint to protect themselves, other staff, scholars, school and personal property. Any scholar who violates this rule will be expelled from ASK and removed from the campus immediately. The police will be called to the school and a report will be filed with the appropriate law enforcement agency. This could also lead to an expulsion hearing. The staff involved may 12 The Ask Academy Scholar Handbook 2011-2012 be on paid leave for the remainder of the day. The appropriate ASK staff will enter the classroom for de-escalation service. 32. INCITING TO RIOT OR DEMONSTRATION Scholars are not to incite or demonstrate in a disorderly or unauthorized manner on or adjacent to school property. 33. FIREWORKS AND EXPLOSIVE DEVICES Scholars are prohibited from possessing or using fireworks or explosive devices on campus. 34. RIGHTS UNDER TITLE IX ASK does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex or handicap in its educational program or activities as required by Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, and of Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, respectively. Inquiries concerning application of the above Federal regulations to the school's program or activities should be directed to the ASK GM. 35. SCHOLAR CELL PHONE/ TEXTING There is educational value in utilizing portable electronic devices in class or during instructional activities when such devices aid in extending, enhancing, and/or reinforcing the scholars' learning process related to the instructional objectives of the class they are attending. Approval for scholars' use of such devices will be at the discretion of the classroom teacher and/or site administrator unless such device is mandated in the scholar's individualized education program (IEP) or the extreme nature of a bona fide emergency renders the securing of such permission impractical under the circumstances. Use of cameras or the camera features on a cell phone or other portable electronic device in a restroom or a locker room or for any use constituting an invasion of any person's reasonable expectation of privacy is strictly prohibited. 36. ASK HEALTH AND WELLNESS Please refer to Health & Wellness Policy which is kept in the GMs Office and given to parents upon request. 13 The Ask Academy Scholar Handbook 2011-2012 37. ACCEPTABLE/ UNACCEPTABLE USE OF SCHOOL COMPUTERS These guidelines must be followed to prevent loss of network and Internet privileges at ASK. The following guidelines should be practiced whether ASK computers access the ASK network or the Internet on or off campus at any time of day or night. All use of ASK computers, networks, and the Internet must be in support of educational goals. Respect all people and their work when using ASK technology. Do not use a computer to harm other people or their work. Respect ASK computers and the network by treating them with care Download only ASK approved software, shareware, or freeware within ASK's licensing agreements. Respect all copyright laws. Tell an adult in charge immediately if you encounter materials which violate the rules of appropriate use. Keep your password and login information to yourself. Open someone else's folders, work, or files only with permission. Use ASK resources efficiently. Think before printing; consider storage space requirements and bandwidth issue. You will be held accountable for your actions. Failure to follow these policies will severely impact your education. By violating the rules of appropriate use, you may lose network and Internet privileges and be subject to disciplinary action. Understand that email on networks should not be considered absolutely secure or private. Scholars should exercise caution before opening attachments to e-mail received from outside the School. There is a risk that such attachments may contain programs or executable files that carry viruses. Do not open attachments unless the source and/or sender can be verified. Keep personal information private; home addresses, telephone, etc. PRIVACY: Computer storage areas may be treated like school lockers. Network administrators may review communications to maintain system integrity and to insure that staff members are using the system responsibly. STORAGE CAPACITY: Users are expected to delete email or other material that takes up excessive storage space. ILLEGAL COPYING: Scholars should never download or install any commercial software, shareware, or freeware onto network drives, hard drives, or disks without proper licensing. Nor should Scholars copy other people's work or intrude into other people's files. 14 The Ask Academy Scholar Handbook 2011-2012 INAPPROPRIATE MATERIALS OR LANGUAGE: No profane, abusive, impolite, racist, or sexist language should be used to communicate across the school's network or the Internet, nor should materials be accessed or distributed which are not in accordance with the rules and expectations of school behavior. Pornographic images are unacceptable material. If you encounter material by accident, please notify the adult in charge immediately. (Questions should be directed to the GM for clarification). Unacceptable Computer Use Consequences: FIRST OFFENSE: The laptop will be confiscated immediately by staff member who verifies that the scholar is using the computer inappropriately. The laptop may be returned to the scholar by the staff member at the end of the school day. SECOND OFFENSE: The laptop is confiscated by the staff member and the laptop is taken to the GM where the parent is contacted by the GM of the inappropriate use. The parent must physically come to the school in order to release the computer back to the scholar. THIRD OFFENSE: The laptop is confiscated by the staff member and taken to the GM. The scholar will receive an incident report for inappropriate computer use, the parent will be notified, and the laptop will remain confiscated with the GM until the end of the semester. #38 DISTANCE LEARNING The ASK Academy strives to provide a high quality education for all scholars that uses and develops 21st Century teaching and learning skills. The Director or the Director's designee is authorized to establish Distance Learning as per 6.30.8 NMAC, a process used to provide instruction for credit when the scholar and primary instructor are not necessarily physically present at the same time and/or place. ASK will assure that scholars enrolled in a distance learning program have the necessary access to technology at school for all classes or activities. 15 The Ask Academy Scholar Handbook 2011-2012 #A THE ASK ACADEMY DISCIPLINE PROCEDURE MATRIX It is the intent of The ASK ACADEMY to strive to keep scholars in classes and provide ongoing education. Discipline procedures are needed to modify the behavior of individuals who engage in unacceptable behavior. An incident report will be filed in the scholar's personal file anytime he/she violates The ASK ACADEMY Scholar Handbook policies. Consequence Chart When policies have been violated, each incident shall be considered in light of the number of other incidents involving that scholar. Scholars will have access to the teachers and homework while serving discipline consequences. The GM reserves the right in any disciplinary situation to use Lunch Detention and/ or I.S.S.as a consequence for scholars violating the ASK Scholar Handbook Rules and Procedures. First Violation/ Second Violation – Consequence: Mediation Scholar will mediate with GM or ASK Director on the incident. The parent will be called on the second offense, and preferably mediation will be done before the start of classes the next day. ISS may also be used depending on the nature of the offense. Third Violation – Consequence: 2-3 day suspension Parents will be called to pick up scholar. Parent will be notified of the suspension and scholar, parent and ASK staff will have a mediation conference on the day scholar will return. Consequences may also include ISS and lunch detention depending on the nature of the incident. Scholars may also have to write about the incident and provide solutions for stopping the behavior. Fourth Violation – Consequence: 5-day suspension Scholar will leave for the remainder of the day. The scholar may not return to classes until mediation occurs with scholar, parent, and ASK staff. ASK Administrator will mediate with the scholar and parent to discuss the severity of the scholar's predicament. The ASK administration and the case manager will determine if the scholar needs counseling, therapy, or ancillary services to modify the scholar's behavior. Scholar may be assigned ISS and/ or detention 16 The Ask Academy Scholar Handbook 2011-2012 and/or duties within the school as part of the consequence. Scholar and parent will also be informed that scholar may be long-term suspended if negative behaviors persist. Fifth Violation – Consequence: Disenrollment Scholar will be dis-enrolled from ASK after multiple infractions of the ASK Scholar Code of conduct and when numerous consequences have been unsuccessful in modifying the scholar's behavior. It is the intent of ASK to relocate scholars to an educational setting that is more suitable for their needs. It is not the intent of ASK to long-term suspend or expel scholars since that may result in keeping them out of all New Mexico schools. When the overall safety and educational process of the staff and scholars of ASK is jeopardized, however, it is the prerogative of ASK to take the appropriate steps to remove the guilty scholar from ASK. GM Discretion The number of incidents does not take precedence over the "severity" of incidents in which the scholar is involved. If any situation jeopardizes the safety, well being, and/or educational progress of ASK the GM has the authority to act with discretion and implement resolution decisions immediately. DUE PROCESS Parents will receive verbal and written notification as well as an e-mail informing them that their scholar will be dis-enrolled, long-term suspended, or expelled from ASK. Parents have five (5) working days to file a REQUEST FOR HEARING with the ASK SCHOOL BOARD that their scholar be reinstated. An ASK School Board committee will meet to determine if the disenrollment merits a hearing. If the disenrollment does merit a hearing The ASK SCHOOL BOARD will set up a hearing with the scholar and his/her parents to hear the argument for reinstatement. The ASK GM must also attend the hearing to represent the school's case for disenrollment, long-term suspension, or expulsion. This ASK SCHOOL BOARD COMMITTEE meeting must take place within ten (10) days from the date of receiving the Request for Hearing letter. After the scholar, parents and GM have presented their cases, the ASK SCHOOL BOARD COMMITTEE will determine if the scholar should be reinstated into ASK or if disenrollment, long-term suspension, or expulsion will remain in effect. 17 The Ask Academy Scholar Handbook 2011-2012 B# Procedure for Resolution of Parent/Teacher (Staff Member) Conflicts A grievance will be defined as a dispute between a parent/guardian and the ASK Academy. The School's conflict resolution (i.e. grievance) procedure is designed to ensure a parent/ guardian and the school a fair hearing of legitimate grievances. The GM/ Principal will determine if the dispute merits exercising the Conflicts Resolution Procedure will determine if the dispute merits exercising the procedure if the GM is the object of the dispute. The grievance will be initiated by the parent / guardian against ASK as an organization. A parent/ guardian should make every effort to resolve the issue with the classroom teacher with two formal letters and meeting with the teacher. A written record of each meeting will be made and kept as part of the personnel file of the aggrieved person. Level I Teacher-Parent Formal Letter (Aggrieved always must begin with Level I) Parent will make at least two (2) FORMAL written attempts to resolve the conflict with the teacher. E-Mail will not be considered as a formal written request. The parent will write their letter and present it at a scheduled short meeting with the teacher where they will mediate the issue. If the parent is not satisfied with resolution of the meeting they must then write a second formal letter to the teacher describing the conflict. The teacher will then give a formal letter response to the parent/guardian. Timeline: Within 3 working days to schedule meeting on receipt of first letter and 3 working days for the teacher to respond to second formal letter. Level II GM-Teacher-Parent Meeting The parent files a written grievance with the GM who will schedule a meeting with the Teacher and Parent involved. Both formal letters to the teacher and formal letter to the GM will be available at this meeting. 18 The Ask Academy Scholar Handbook 2011-2012 Level III GM Resolves issue, followed by written response to parent. Level IV GM, Parent, Board Member Grievance Review If an issue is not resolved then a meeting with the GM, Parent, and Board Member will be scheduled for the person filing the grievance. The Board will review all documentation surrounding the grievance and issue a written resolution to the person filing the grievance. All written documents prior to this step must be available for the Board review. **ASK PARENT/ SCHOLAR ACKNOWLEDGEMENT ON THE NEXT PAGE 19 The Ask Academy Scholar Handbook 2011-2012 2011-2012 ASK PARENT/ SCHOLAR ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF THE RULES AND REGULATIONS OF THE ASK ACADEMY ____________________________________________________________ Please sign and return ONLY this page immediately and keep The ASK Academy Scholar Hand Book at home for future reference.

DEFINITION of 'Corporate Kleptocracy'
Buzzword that describes the greed of corporate executives who use underhanded tactics to siphon off wealth at the expense of shareholders. This buzzword is attributed to how ex-Hollinger CEO, Conrad Black, and his fellow associates allegedly embezzled hundreds of millions of dollars over a seven-year period from Hollinger.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Corporate Kleptocracy'
Black's misuse of company funds was quite blatant. In fact, it was reported that Black and his wife lived a very extravagant lifestyle with company money. For example, reports indicated that Black used $1.4 million of Hollinger funds to pay for his personal butlers, maids and chefs.
