HIP1 (huntingtin interacting protein 1) has two close relatives: HIP1R (HIP1-related) and yeast Sla2p. All three members of the family have a conserved domain structure, suggesting a common function. Over the past decade, a number of studies have characterized these proteins using a combination of biochemical, imaging, structural and genetic techniques. These studies provide valuable information on binding partners, structure and dynamics of HIP1/HIP1R/Sla2p. In general, all suggest a role in CME (clathrin-mediated endocytosis) for the three proteins, though some differences have emerged. In this mini-review we summarize the current views on the roles of these proteins, while emphasizing the unique attributes of each family member.

Criminal laws regulating asset recovery of corruption today experience a paradigm oversight since it only relies on the money substitute in corruption under Article 18 of Law No. 31, 1999 concerning The Eradication of The Crime of Corruption as amended with the Law No. 20, 2001 in which asset recovery is addressed only to the convict. In fact, modus to cover up the proceed of corruption usually involves the family, close relatives or confidants including the heirs. The obstacle in recovering the asset is that civil lawsuit is not yet effective as the means to recover the asset, the organization of law enforcement, the ratification of 2003 UNCAC that is also not yet effectively implemented in Indonesian law, and the laws against corruption that are weak. Future concept of law in asset recovery of proceed of corruption by the culprit and the heirs in order to materialize a legal welfare state should at least done through progressive laws i.e. reformation of law, optimization of Mutual Legal Assistance, the widening of authority implemented by the Eradication Commission of Corruption in recovering the asset as the proceed of corruption, the strong inter-agency coordination of law enforcements, and the urgency to promulgate the Recovery Asset Act.Keyword: Recovery; Proceed of Corruption; HeirsABSTRAKPerangkat hukum pidana dalam mengembalikan aset hasil tindak pidana korupsi pada saat ini mengalami kekeliruan paradigma karena hanya mengandalkan uang pengganti kejahatan korupsi yang terkandung dalam Pasal 18 Undang-Undang Nomor 31 Tahun 1999 Tentang Pemberantasan Tindak Pidana Korupsi sebagaimana telah diubah dengan Undang-Undang Nomor 20 Tahun 2001, di mana Pengembalian harta atau kekayaan hanya ditujukan kepada terpidana. Padahal modus menyembunyikan harta kekayaan hasil korupsi biasanya dengan menggunakan sanak keluarga, kerabat dekat atau orang kepercayaannya termasuk para ahli warisnya. Hambatan pengembalian aset tindak pidana korupsi disebabkan belum efektifnya gugatan perdata sebagai sarana untuk mengembalikan aset hasil kejahatan korupsi, kelembagaan penegak hukum, belum efektifnya Ratifikasi UNCAC 2003 dilaksanakan dalam hukum Indonesia, serta kelemahan di ranah regulasi tindak pidana korupsi. Konsep hukum mendatang dalam pengembalian aset tindak pidana korupsi pelaku dan ahli warisnya dalam mewujudkan negara hukum kesejahteraan, setidaknya ditempuh dalam beberapa langkah hukum progresif, yakni perbaikan regulasi peraturan perundang-undangan, optimalisasi Bantuan Hukum Timbal Balik, Perluasan kewenangan Komisi Pemberantasan Korupsi dalam Pengembalian Aset hasil tindak pidana korupsi, Penguatan koordinasi antar lembaga penegak hukum, serta menyegerakan menyelesaikan Undang-Undang Pengembalian Aset.Kata Kunci: Pengembalian; Aset Korupsi; Ahli Waris

The authors examined the relationship of two dimensions of the theory of social development—vulnerability (predictors, risk factors) and protectivity—in two samples, schoolchildren aged ten to fifteen years and addictive drug users. On the basis of the Hirschi model of protective factors, they found that the most important protective factors (attachment, commitment, involvement, belief) act against substance use. A surprising finding was that among the predictors of the addicts some forms of escape from the family act against the development of drug use, that is, they can be regarded as a protective predictor. The findings of the study draw attention to the complexity of the vulnerability-protectivity relationship and to the need for further research.

Existe un amplio consenso en considerar a la familia como el principal agente modulador del riesgo/protección del consumo de drogas en edades tempranas. La influencia de la familia en la transmisión de valores y adquisición de conductas es indiscutible, y por lo tanto es objeto de numerosas intervenciones preventivas. Objetivo: En la presente investigación se analiza la relación de tres variables de índole familiar y el consumo de alcohol y tabaco en los hijos, estas son: el control parental, la actitud parental ante el consumo de alcohol, y la disponibilidad de dinero. Método: Estudiantes de 3er y 4º curso de ESO respondieron a una batería de tests sobre factores de riesgo y consumo de drogas. Se identificaron dos grupos: consumidores de alcohol y tabaco (n=70) y noconsumidores (n=46). La media de edad es de 14,17. Resultados: Los resultados muestran una clara relación entre consumo y actitud parental.Los jóvenes que reportaron no consumir, percibían actitudes parentales más contrarias al abuso de alcohol. De igual manera se constata una relación directa entre disponibilidad económica y consumo de alcohol y tabaco. No obstante, no se encontraron diferencias entre ambos grupos en la percepción del control parental.AbstractConsidering the family as the main modulating agent of risk / protection of drug use at younger ages is supported by a broad consensus.The family influence in the transmission of values and develop of new behaviors is undeniable, and therefore the family is the target of many preventive interventions. Objective: This paper analyzes the relationship of three family variables and alcohol and tobacco consumption by the offspring; the variables are: parental control, parental attitudes towards alcohol consumption, and money availability. Method: Students of 3rd and 4th year of ESO answered to a battery of tests on risk factors and drug use. Two groups were identified: consumers of alcohol and tobacco (n = 70) and non-users (n = 46). The average age is 14.17. Results: Results showa clear relation between consumption and parental attitudes. Teenagers that informed no consumption perceived higher attitudes against alcohol abuse. Similarly, there was found a direct relationship between economic availability and consumption of alcohol and tobacco. However, no differences were found between groups in the perception of parental control.

This chapter describes the process of genetic counselling in general but with an emphasis on Huntington’s disease. The chapter discusses issues for a new diagnosis in the family and describes the challenges of telling children that they are at risk. Medical doctors often lead genetic counselling teams as they are specially trained to give information about genetic disorders and explain the implications of genetic tests. The doctor or counsellor has to understand your particular circumstances and support you in a way that allows you to make your own decisions. A diagnosis of HD has implications for you and all your close relatives.

Abstract— Members of the Parisian robe Lamoignon family were among the most prominent dévots of the French Catholic Reformation. This article explores the family’s religious engagement through six substantial biographies or vies written by close relatives between 1663 and 1688–90, which reflected on the devotional lives of Chrétien and Marie Lamoignon and three of their four children, Guillaume, Anne and Madeleine. It analyses how the authors adopted the popular strategy of life-writing to recall, reflect on and interpret the significance of their religious choices and experiences for themselves and for the family as a whole. Appraisal of their habits became building blocks for the construction of what the authors defined as a Lamoignon ‘family spirit’, which included a rhetoric of humility that was designed to withstand pride, deflect accusations of venality, validate the family’s advancement and inflect their history with a cohesive spiritual identity.

Family building (FB) is a building where residents of different flats are close relatives. Being quite common in metropolitan areas, these unique psychosocial environments remain underexamined. We aimed to research into the interactions within the family and psychosocial features of FBs. One hundred and one children living in FBs and FB-experiences of their parents were assessed by semi-structured interviews using K-SADS-PL. Mothers scored their satisfaction from FB-lifestyle in the scale of 0-100. The sample consisted of 35 girls and 66 boys. Mean age was 108±37.4 months. ADHD and anxiety disorders were the common diagnoses. Eighty-two families lived with paternal relatives. Number of relative-neighbors in the building changed between 2-10. Forty-one mothers scored ?50 for their satisfaction; 58% believed FBs affected their children's symptoms negatively. Examining the perceived advantages and disadvantages of FBs, ‘extreme criticism' and ‘social support' were the decisive items to predict mothers' satisfaction levels. Having both positive and negative effects, FB-lifestyle seem to complicate interpersonal relations within the family. This study has revealed some preliminary findings, but further studies are required in the field.
