Submitted Respectfully, Brian Butler - Chair Jeffrey Shaw - Vice Chair Brian Plasko - Clerk Susan Franz - Selectwoman Stephen Mandile - Selectman _____________________________________________________________________________________________ Town Counsel The following represents the cases that Mead, Talerman & Costa, LLC handled as Town Counsel in Fiscal Years 2018, 2019, and 2020 to date. Richardson, et al v. Zoning Bd of Appeals Mass Land Court No. 17 MISC. 000271 This case is an appeal of a decision of the ZBA, which upheld the enforcement order of the Building Commissioner. Such enforcement order required Richardson to cease all soil reclamation activity at 175 South Street. After extensive discovery, a trial was held on August 19th and 20th, 2018. Judgment was entered in favor of Richardson and the Town appealed. We are awaiting a date for oral argument at the Appeals Court. Richardson, et al v. Planning Board, et al Worcester Superior Court No. 1785CV00272 This matter originated as an appeal of the conditions of an earth removal permit issued by the Planning Board for the Richardson property at 175 South Street. We then counterclaimed, seeking compliance with general bylaw requirements for soil reclamation activities. Richardson’s claim became moot after the earth removal permit expired and we then moved for an injunction on the counterclaim. The Court granted our motion, enjoining all soil reclamation activities until Richardson obtains an earth filling permit from the Planning Board. Richardson, et al v. Board of Health Worcester Superior Court No. 1785CV00931 This case is a challenge to the BOH’s adoption of regulation requiring a permit for any large-scale earth filling activities. The Court has issued a Judgment dismissing the appeal and affirming the BOH’s regulation. Richardson appealed but appeal was dismissed. Richardson, et al v. Board of Health Worcester Superior Court No. 1785CV01647 This case is an appeal of the BOH’s denial of a permit application under the BOH’s regulation requiring a permit for any large-scale earth filling activities. The Court held a hearing on the parties’ Motions for Judgment and issued judgment in favor of the BOH. There was no appeal. Richardson, et al v Board of Health Worcester Superior Court No. 1985CV01347 This is a related action by Richardson seeking a declaration as to BOH Regulations. We have moved to dismiss. A hearing is scheduled for April, 2020. Richardson v. ZBA Land Court No. 19MISC000584 This is a new appeal of a denial of a variance. We are defending the ZBA. Immanuel Corp. v. Zoning Bd of Appeals Worcester Superior Court No. 1785CV00765 This case is an appeal of a decision of the ZBA, which upheld the enforcement order of the Building Commissioner. Such enforcement order required Immanuel to cease all soil reclamation activity at 775 Millville Road. Extensive 4 discovery and depositions have occurred. Immanuel moved for summary judgment and we opposed. In December of 2018, the Court issued a decision denying Immanuel’s Motion. A trial is beginning in January of 2020. Town of Uxbridge v. Ashraf Yousef Worcester Superior Court No. 1885CV01851 This case is an enforcement

In order to use the readline module it must be first imported. readline= imports.readline; readline.readline (prompt) Prompts for one line of input on standard input using prompt as the prompt. prompt A string to use as the readline prompt Returns A string entered on standard input. readline.bind (key, function) Binds key to function causing the function to be invokved when- ever key is pressed key A string specifying the key to bind function The function to invoke when key is pressed readline.done () Indicates that readline should finish the current line, and return from readline- .readline. Can be used in callbacks to implement features like multiline editing readline.buffer() Retrieve the current readline buffer Returns The current readline buffer readline.insert (string) Inserts string in to the current readline buffer string The string to insert 1.2 Examples Below are several examples of using the Seed readline module.

  • The GTK+ Drag-And-Drop Mechanism
    CSci493.73 Graphical User Interface Programming Prof. Stewart Weiss The GTK+ Drag-and-Drop Mechanism The GTK+ Drag-and-Drop Mechanism 1 Overview Drag-and-drop (DND, for short) is an operation in applications with graphical user interfaces by which users can request, in a visual way, that running applications exchange data with each other. To the user, in a drag-and-drop operation, it appears that data is being dragged from the source of the drag to the destination of the drag. Because applications are independent of each other and written without cognizance of who their partners will be in a DND operation, for DND to work, there must be underlying support by either the operating system or the windowing system. The Mac OS operating system has always had built-in support for drag-and-drop. Microsoft Windows did not have it; it was added on top of the operating system in Windows 95 and later. UNIX has no support for it at all because the graphical user interfaces found in UNIX systems are not part of the operating system. Support for DND is provided by the X Window system. Over the years, several dierent protocols were developed to support DND on X Windows. The two most common were Xdnd and Motif DND. GTK+ can perform drag-and-drop on top of both the Xdnd and Motif protocols. In GTK+, for an application to be capable of DND, it must rst dene and set up the widgets that will participate in it. A widget can be a source and/or a destination for a drag-and-drop operation.
