[B]NEW YORK, N.Y. -[/B] While an official has said that the 20-year-old gunman in the Connecticut school shooting had[B][COLOR="#B22222"][SIZE=4] Asperger's syndrome[/SIZE][/COLOR][/B], experts say there is no connection between the disorder and violence.

"There really is no clear association between Asperger's and violent behaviour," said psychologist Elizabeth Laugeson, an assistant clinical professor at the University of California, Los Angeles.
Little is known about Adam Lanza, identified by police as the shooter in the Friday massacre at a Newtown, Connecticut, elementary school. He fatally shot his mother before going to the school and killing 20 young children, six adults and himself, authorities said.
A law enforcement official, speaking on condition of anonymity because the person was not authorized to discuss the unfolding investigation, said Lanza had been diagnosed with Asperger's.
High school classmates and others have described him as bright but painfully shy, anxious and a loner. Those kinds of symptoms are consistent with Asperger's, said psychologist Eric Butter of Nationwide Children's Hospital in Columbus, Ohio, who treats autism, including Asperger's, but has no knowledge of Lanza's case.

"But we are not talking about the kind of planned and intentional type of violence we have seen at Newtown," he said in an email.
"These types of tragedies have occurred at the hands of individuals with many different types of personalities and psychological profiles," he added.
Autism is a developmental disorder that can range from mild to severe. Asperger's generally is thought of as a mild form. Both autism and Asperger's can be characterized by poor social skills, repetitive behaviour or interests and problems communicating. Unlike classic autism, Asperger's does not typically involve delays in mental development or speech.
Experts say those with autism and related disorders are sometimes diagnosed with other mental health problems, such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder or obsessive-compulsive disorder.
"I think it's far more likely that what happened may have more to do with some other kind of mental health condition like depression or anxiety rather than Asperger's," Laugeson said.

"There's something more to this," she said. "We just don't know what that is yet."
After much debate, the term Asperger's is being dropped from the diagnostic manual used by U.S. psychiatrists. In changes approved earlier this month, Asperger's will be incorporated under the umbrella term "autism spectrum disorder" for all the ranges of autism.

Những tin tuyệt hảo :Sự sống là Thiên Đường.
Những điều tuyệt hảo.
Trong mấy tháng vừa qua, tôi thấy có mấy tin vui sau đây mà tôi cho là tuyệt hảo trên trái đất này:
- Tin hôn lẽ cuả một cụ bà mới có đúng một trăm cái xuân xanh mà vẫn bước lên xe hoa :
Đó là Bà Dana Jackson 100 tuổi lấy ông Bill Stauss 87 tuổi tại Thổ Nhĩ Kỳ.
- Ông Già GÂN 96 tuổi vẫn sinh con.
Raghav, of Kharkhoda, told The Times of India that he was a bachelor who practiced celibacy for his entire life before meeting Davi 10 years ago. "After staying together, we decided to extend our family and aspired for two sons. With God's grace, our wish has been fulfilled," he told the newspaper, which alleges that the man's age is recorded in the Haryana government's social welfare department.
"My neighbors are jealous and they keep asking me for my secret, but all I tell them is that it is God's will," Raghav is quoted as saying, according to ninemsn. "I think it's very important for a husband and wife to have sex regularly and when she asks I will go on all night, but for the sake of my child I've put our needs aside for now."
Raghav, a field hand and former wrestler, reportedly first broke the "World's Oldest New Dad" record when he became a father to his first son in November 2010. Last year Raghav told The Sun he didn't want a second child, but now he says, “I feel lucky to have two healthy sons. It will be tough, but I’m a happy man.”
Still, he thinks he can have more.
