Impact of Brexit on prospective staff and students from the UK
If you are considering coming to the UvA to study or work, you may be wondering how Brexit will affect your plans.
Please note: The information on this page does not apply to you if you were registered in the Netherlands' personal records database (BRP) before 1 January 2021.
Prospective staff from the UK
From 2021, if you want to come and work at the UvA you will be treated as a third-country national. The same conditions apply as those for persons from other non-member states (such as American citizens who wish to stay and work at the UvA). The UvA needs a permit (werkvergunning) to employ you.
Prospective students from the UK
At the moment, we expect that new UK students will be subject to the regulations for non-EU/EEA countries, which would mean the following:
You would need a residence permit (based on your studies) to study in the Netherlands. The UvA will inform you about the procedure by email. (Note that applying for a Dutch residence permit for the purpose of study always needs to be done by the UvA.)
You would pay the non-EEA tuition fee.
You would need a work permit to be able to work. (The exact rules and regulations would depend on whether you're working during your studies or after you've graduated.)
Tuition fees for prospective students (starting 1 February or later)
If you were registered in the BRP before 1 January 2021, you pay the statutory tuition fee (if you have never previously obtained a similar degree from a Dutch institute of higher education).
If you were NOT registered in the BRP before 1 January 2021, you play the institutional tuition fee.
View UvA tuition fees.
Important: The impact of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement signed on 24 December 2020 is still being analysed. The information on this page will be updated in the coming weeks.

Here it is, then, the summer break that splits the Formula One season not quite in half with an enforced rest. Some greet the break with enthusiasm - a moment to take a breath and consider what has happened whilst resting and preparing for the final push to the title. Others can't wait for the racing to return. The following links might help to entertain, no matter which side of the fence you fall on!
Let's start with one of the big stories of the week. Following the Hungarian Grand Prix, teams stuck around for two days of testing but there was only one driver who dominated the headlines.
It's a good sign because a lot of people think you improve only by driving but you can improve also by thinking. And thinking where you can improve and this is what happened. If I was in the car tomorrow I could improve and would feel more familiar with the car.
You can only imagine how happy this makes me. Kubica was one of my favourite F1 racers and the Lone Pole was a very talented dude behind the wheel. I felt incredibly bad when he had to leave the sport so suddenly. Of course, Kubica is not yet signed with any team at the moment and while the afore-mentioned Palmer has had an underwhelming start to his F1 career, the Renault team has not confirmed that he'd be on his way out.
Now that the testing is over, it is officially F1's summer break, but that doesn't mean that we all have to power down and just wait the four weeks till it all starts up again in Spa.
F1 Summer Break Spleen by Beatrice Zamuner.
The teams have to officially close their factories down for two weeks and are not allowed to do any work on their cars, or even use work email. But team bosses and drivers have mobile phones, and there is a lot to sort out in the coming weeks.
In last week's collections, I gathered together links from other motorsports, and this week I have another couple - but it's more about how the various categories of racing are starting to cross over and face competition from each other.
The last eight days have seen a shift that not even the most informed and insightful observers of our sport could have imagined. Porsche and Mercedes entering Formula E – both dropping one of their seemingly critical motor sport programmes to do so – and the FIA legislating that the halo must be used in Formula 1 from 2018 onwards.
For the past few years, racing fans who tuned in to the FIA World Endurance Championship could watch Porsche, Audi and Toyota duke it out in the series' top LMP1 class—a class that featured the most advanced race cars in the world going at it in the 24 Hours of Le Mans and some of the best tracks on Earth. But Audi is out, and as of Friday, Porsche is too, all for the much lesser electric open-wheel series that is the FIA Formula E Championship.
And my final collection of three unconnected links, including a chat with the reigning world champion, a glimpse inside the paddock, and another angle on the halo.
Motorsport was always a passion and something I just wanted to be around. No one in my family was involved, but my nan knew someone who was involved in a local single-seater race team and so passed on a telephone number. I made the call and from that, I started washing wheels and helping out on events, basically doing anything just to be involved and learn more about the sport and make as many contacts as possible in the industry.
But aside from the aesthetics and the nebulous idea of what comprises the 'DNA' of Formula One car design, interesting has been the argument put forward to the effect that mortal danger – the risking of life, the possibility of death – is the beating heart of Formula One.

Q: Show this is an unbiased estimator for $M$ We have a sample $X_1, ..., X_n$ from $U[M,2M]$, $M>0$.
Define $U=\frac{(n+1)}{(2n+1)}\max(X_i)$.
I wish to show that $U$ is an unbiased estimator for $M$, but I am getting a wrong result.
This is how I am trying to do it.
$f(x)=\frac{1}{2M-M}=\frac{1}{M}$
$P(X_i \leq x)=\int_M^x \frac{1}{M} dy = \frac{x-M}{M}$
$P(\max(X_i) \leq x) = P(X_1 \leq x, ... , X_n \leq x)=(\frac{x-M}{M})^n$
$E(\max(X_i))=\int_M^{2M} {1- (\frac{y-M}{M})^n } dy = \frac{n}{n+1}M$
$E(U)=E(\frac{(n+1)}{(2n+1)}\max(X_i))=\frac{(n+1)}{(2n+1)}E(\max(X_i))=\frac{(n+1)}{(2n+1)}*\frac{n}{n+1}M$
but I have to show that $ E(U)=M$ so it is an unbiased estimator, I really don't see where I am going wrong!

A: It looks like your problems start occurring when you try to calculate the Expected Value of X.
Go back one step: When you calculate the probability that all X's are less than "x", you're in effect calculating the CDF, right? As a result, you want to take the derivative of this CDF, giving you your new PDF to work with [i.e. n/M(X/M -1)^(n-1)].
[See: Expected Value of Max of IID Variables ]
The next step would be to multiply by X and integrate from M to 2M (performing the necessary u-substitution, etc.), leaving you with the Expected Value of X.
From there it's easy since the "2n+1" and "n+1" cancel out the "2n+1" and "n+1" earlier...

Camalen Bordals: change of 'booklet' to lock the goalkeeper of Valencia | LaLiga Santander 2021
Valencia – Rayo Vallecano (16:15)
The team has conceded 20 goals and is the fourth most scored in the championship. The coach has given up his 4-4-2 to alleviate the fragility of the defense. Today he receives Rayo in Mestalla
Bordals gives instructions to his Valencia at the Reale Arena.EFE
"I have always identified the Valencia CF with a very defined DNA and recovering it is my goal. " Jos Bordals He already imagined what his Valencia would be like as soon as he reached the bench, but it is difficult for him to see it on the field, so much so that he has had to modify his system, the booklet that he has managed his entire career, to find a way to achieve it.
That Valencian memory to which he appealed contemplates a solid and rough Valencia, which sustained the victories from the goalkeeper to zero because it turned the talent blows into definitive ones. Bordals wanted to walk there, with a classic 4-4-2 and the whole team focused on the pressure on the rival. The problems took only four days to appear. Valencia, after three victories and a draw, have chained six games without winning in which they only added one draw and received 15 goals. A bleeding that had to be plugged at the source.
Nobody imagined that a team with the stamp of Alicante would be the fourth most thrashed team of the competition. The collective intensity was failing and the effort required resulted in injuries: Cheryshev, Thierry, Soler, Gay and Paulista have been falling from the eleven. With a limited bench pool, Bordals decided to switch manuals. Making the team stronger was by placing five midfielders: a trivote (Guillamn-Wass-Racic or Soler) and two bands with a lot of offensive capacity (Helder Costa and Hugo Duro).
That change made Valencia wake up and gave him five points against Villarreal, Athletic and the Real society. DNA peeked out. "Keeping the goalkeeper at zero is something we must try in every game. You have to be strong defensively, which does not mean that the coach has a defensive mentality. The great teams of the big leagues are the ones that fit the least, not the ones that more they perform. It is always important to be strong defensively, it is not something that I say but it is the reality. We cannot afford the fragility that we have had in many games, "insisted the coach.
However, to refine the defense, the sacrifice has come in attack. The essential Guedes it has not had a point of reference and thus it is more difficult for the Portuguese to roam in freedom. He did not have it because of the injury to Maxi gmez, who could return to the Lightning today and cause the change again, although their numbers are not to have blind confidence. "He must be much longer than he is in the rival area. We have talked about it and he is intelligent and he has understood it."
Still, Bordals would not give Iraola a clue about his plans. "We try to take the initiative and the weight, the drawing is the least important. It is a possibility to return to 4-4-2 or that we can repeat the one in the last games."
"To win it is not enough to defend, you have to create a game and reach the rival goalkeeper. Valencia must be daring when they have the ball. You have to show the best version, run and work harder than a rival who leaves nothing, "he recalled.
El Rayo arrives at Mestalla without Ciss neither scar Trejo and with Falcao just recovered. They will not face Paulista, who has reported his muscular problems. In the atmosphere a new protest against Peter Lim will be found in minute 19, when thousands of yellow posters are expected to appear with the phrase 'Lim go home'(Lim go home).

Q: Process.Start will not work when invoked from Task Scheduler on server Good Day
I am having issues using Process.Start() when I deploy to a server.
As usual "It works fine on my machine", which does not help.  On the server though, when using task manager to kick off the program, I can see in the log the process.start method is called.
But the external program never launches.
If I run the external program with the same working directory, program, and args on the command line everything works as expected.
Here is my code if anyone can help.
<add key="StartProgram" value="C:\Program Files (x86)\WinTask\bin\TaskExec.exe"/>
<add key="StartUpDirectory" value="D:\DS3\WeatherDownLoad\RunDownload"/>
<add key="Args" value="ProdDownLoadWeather.rob"/>

Process process = new Process();
process.StartInfo.FileName = settings["StartProgram"];
process.StartInfo.Arguments = settings["Args"];
process.StartInfo.WorkingDirectory = settings["StartUpDirectory"];
process.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = false;
process.StartInfo.RedirectStandardError = true;
process.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
process.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;

process.Start();
process.WaitForExit();

A: Turns out I was not doing anything incorrect.  A third party component requires it's own desktop.  So when I was using Remote Desktop it could not open another desktop.  Thanks for trying to help.

Q: Is there a way I can compute all this possible paths and store them? I have a matrix and each of its columns represents a sequence of points, to be more specific:
 1     1     1     1     1     1     1     1     1     1     1     1     1     1     1     1     1     1     1     1
 6     6     6     6     5     5     5     5     4     4     4     4     3     3     3     3     2     2     2     2
 5     4     3     2     6     4     3     2     6     5     3     2     6     5     4     2     6     5     4     3
 1     1     1     1     1     1     1     1     1     1     1     1     1     1     1     1     1     1     1     1
 2     2     2     3     2     2     2     3     2     2     2     3     2     2     2     4     3     3     3     4
 3     3     4     4     3     3     4     4     3     3     5     5     4     4     5     5     4     4     5     5
 4     5     5     5     4     6     6     6     5     6     6     6     5     6     6     6     5     6     6     6

1 stands for point number one, 2 stands for point number two, and so on.
So as said above, every column represent a different configuration of a set of point (x and y coordinates).
If the set of points is:
 (1,9)
 (2,5)
 (3,7)
 (4,2)
 (2,1)
 (2,3)

then one possible path, according to the first column is:
 (1,9)
 (2,3)
 (2,1)
 (1,9)
 (2,5)
 (3,7)
 (4,2)

Is there a way I can compute all this possible configurations and store them?
When I first approached this problem I didn't know about graph theory, that's why so far I am not using it.

A: I don't understand the logics behind the fouth row of your sequence matrix. It's filled with 1 but they seem to be completely ignored by your example. Respecting your example, given the points:
(1,9) (2,5) (3,7) (4,2) (2,1) (2,3)

and the first column sequence:
1 6 5 1 2 3 4

the output should be:
(1,9) (2,3) (2,1) (1,9) (2,5) (3,7) (4,2)

and not:
(1,9) (2,3) (2,1) (2,5) (3,7) (4,2)

Since I don't know how your scripts should work and how I should deal with the fourth row, I implemented a code that ignore that logic, producing the result that seems the most obvious to me:
seq = [
  1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
  6 6 6 6 5 5 5 5 4 4 4 4 3 3 3 3 2 2 2 2
  5 4 3 2 6 4 3 2 6 5 3 2 6 5 4 2 6 5 4 3
  1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
  2 2 2 3 2 2 2 3 2 2 2 3 2 2 2 4 3 3 3 4
  3 3 4 4 3 3 4 4 3 3 5 5 4 4 5 5 4 4 5 5
  4 5 5 5 4 6 6 6 5 6 6 6 5 6 6 6 5 6 6 6
];

pts = {
  [1 9]
  [2 5]
  [3 7]
  [4 2]
  [2 1]
  [2 3]
};

paths = pts(seq);

Then, in order to access the paths you can to, for example:
for i = 1:size(paths,2)
    disp(cell2mat(paths(:,i)))
end

or:
paths = cell2mat(paths);

for i = 1:2:(size(paths,2) / 2)
    x = paths(:,i);
    y = paths(:,i+1);
    disp([x y]);
end

Tiny Blockman is a platforming game in the tradition of, of course, the Super Mario Brothers. Other classic arcade games contribute to this game too. Tiny Blockman borrows the idea of the powerup system of Super Mario Brothers of which acquiring certain items would give your character additional skills aside from essentially having an extra "life".

Curtain (Fr. rideau; Ger. Vorhang; It. sipario)
Edward A. Langhans

(Fr. rideau; Ger. Vorhang; It. sipario)
A hanging screen of cloth separating the stage from the auditorium, capable of being removed during the action, or any concealing drapery. The word is used by extension for the end of an act or scene, when the curtain might fall (hence the cue 'curtain') and the theatrical effect at the end of an act (hence 'strong curtain').
Though the ancient Greeks probably invented the theatrical curtain, its first certain use dates from Roman times, when it was hung before the scaenae frons and dropped as the performance began, revealing the splendour of the façade and whatever scenery was set up. The curtain, having fallen into a trough, could be raised on poles to conceal the stage again. This system was revived in Italian Renaissance theatres with their picture-frame stages, perhaps as early as 1515 (and it was used as a gag in the modern musical A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum...

A temporary church was opened in 1886 on Heath Mill Lane serving a poor, densely populated district. A parish was assigned from that of St Peter and St Paul, Aston. A new church on the same site, designed by Birmingham Arts & Crafts architect Arthur Stansfield Dixon, was consecrated in 1911. The small rectangular red-brick building with a north-west bellcote is variously described as Romanesque or Byzantine style.
In 1939 the parishes of St Basil and St John, Deritend were united as a single benefice. St John's was demolished in 1947. In 1978 St Basil's closed and the parish was united with St Martin in the Bull Ring. The building is now a centre for helping homeless young people.

First up in the Sister Series is the youngest, Annie! She is the youngest by four years, while the rest of us are two years apart. I've always admired the way she doesn't care what others think of her (something I'm awful at) and her incredible work ethic. Although I was often "forced" to play with Annie when we were growing up (my parents claim I was happy to do it!), I think we often bonded over being dragged to all of our older sisters' activities. I've loved watching her grow into her own person, despite five strong influences ahead of her, and frequently find myself shocked at the fact that she's grown up now! In my head, she's permanently 10 years old :) Without further adieu, Annie and her thoughts on having five older sisters!
My favorite part of growing up with five sisters was always having someone to look up to. As the youngest, I always wanted to be just like my sisters in different ways. I loved being able to see them go through things before I did, and then getting advice from them after. It also didn't hurt that it made me look like I had a lot of older (and cooler) friends.
My favorite part of having five sisters now is having five best friends. Although we don't see each other much now, I love being able to catch up with everyone and have a lot of laughs. Just like when I was growing up, I am still able to get a lot of advice from them about everything in life. It is something special to have five sounding boards to tell your problems to, and have them genuinely care.
Growing up in a big family has taught me that things don't always go the way you want. It is often about the happiness of many rather than your own. It has also taught me how much love a group of people can have for each other. I love that I have a group of people that I would do anything for and I know they would do the same.
Growing up I loved dancing with my sisters, watching them perform (whether on stage or in our living room), and always having enough people to play games with. The thing about having five sisters is that everything you do together is fun, but a lot of my favorite memories are from vacations and traveling. I know that all of them loved to dress me up when I was little as well!
Now, I love just sitting and chatting with the sisters. My favorite still has to be our dance parties, though. I also love playing games with them still, simply because we are all so competitive. It makes for an interesting time!
It is hard to describe in just these questions what having five sisters is like. No one really can comprehend the relationships I have with each one of my sisters and the dynamic we have as a group. It is just truly something special to have siblings that are so alike and different from you at the same time. I couldn't imagine being in any other family!

FDA Newsroom
Statement from FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb, M.D., on the Trump Administration's plan to lower drug prices
FDA Statement
Statement From:
Today is an important day in the Administration's collaborative effort to address the rising cost of drugs. We know that the high list cost of drugs can adversely impact peoples' access to medicines. People rely on medicines to improve their quality of life, manage chronic conditions and treat life-threatening illnesses. Access to prescription drugs is a matter of public health. I applaud President Trump for making this one of the Administration's priorities and introducing a bold plan that puts patients first in advancing actions to address the rising list prices of prescription medicines. The FDA shares the goal of ensuring that American patients have access to quality and affordable care that meets their needs. This is why we're prioritizing actions to encourage the timely development and approval of generics and biosimilars.
To date, we've taken a number of steps as part of our Drug Competition Action Plan (DCAP). We're helping remove barriers to generic drug development and market entry in an effort to spur competition that results in lower drug prices for patients, and greater access.
One key aspect of our role is to strengthen and enhance the overall generic drug review process. We've committed to timelier generic drug reviews to reduce the cycles of review that generic applications typically undergo. In 2017, we approved a record number of generic drug applications—more than 1,000 full or tentative approvals. We expect to beat that goal this year. And although the FDA doesn't have a direct role in drug pricing, by ensuring that regulatory requirements are efficient, predictable and science-based; we can help reduce the time, uncertainty and cost of generic and biosimilar product development.
In addition, we're calling out abuses of the system that impede competition and doing our part to fix them. The agency is committed to adopting strong policies and taking action, when necessary, to reduce gaming of statutory and regulatory requirements to help ensure that drug companies don't use anticompetitive strategies to delay development and approval of important generic drugs.
Our efforts have included taking significant steps to support complex generic drug development and application review; prioritizing the review of certain generics; publishing a list of off-patent, off-exclusivity branded drugs; and enhancing the efficiency of certain aspects of the submission process for generic drug applicants.
The President made it clear today that we all need to play a role—including the FDA and its sister agencies like the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services—to put American patients first by taking bold actions to help patients have access to affordable medicine. The FDA will continue what it started with DCAP by taking new steps to address the significant health challenges we face and extend that momentum to implementing new measures as part of a forthcoming Biosimilar Action Plan that aims to facilitate the development and approval of biosimilars—which will help address patient access to costly biological products that can treat a range of chronic and life-threatening conditions. We will also be taking additional steps to address some of the Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategies (REMS) "gaming" abuses that can delay the entry of generic drugs.
These are among some of the new actions that we'll be taking in the coming weeks. The FDA will continue to work to promote drug competition and access for patients, to advance our public health goals.

If you've been a designer for any period of time, you'll have no doubt heard of logo and brand designer David Airey.
David has been an independent designer in 2005. He's collaborated with a diverse range of clients in more than thirty countries. His speciality is in the creation of meaningful and enduring logos and brand identities that help his clients to better communicate the value of what they do.
He's also the author of Logo Design Love and is about to bring out a new book, entitled Identity Designed: The Definitive Guide to Visual Branding, which is based on his hugely popular blog by the same name.
Why did you create the book?
The success of my earlier book, Logo Design Love, led various publishers to ask if I'd write another, so it'd been on my mind for a couple of years before the planning started.
As the Identity Designed website had grown steadily since 2010, it made sense from a promotional view to base a new book on that. It'd be special to do something that makes the design profession better for everyone involved — whether that's designers doing a similar job, clients who want to understand more about working with designers, or teachers who are bringing the next generation into the workforce.
I'm also at a life stage where I have two amazing, young children, so what could be better than releasing a title that others benefit from, while helping to support my family, too?
What did you learn from interviewing all these people in the book?
While there are common project phases when creating a company's visual identity (research, strategy, design, implementation), how studios approach each step can be very different. Just as there are a lot of right ways to do things, there are fairly common wrong ways, too.
The good and bad are talked about. It was also interesting to learn from studio owners about working with people in different cultures, and how their approaches are changed to fit with local mentalities. That's the kind of thing you generally don't discover until you're in the middle of a project with your own international clients.
What do you hope people will get out of reading this book?
The confidence and insights to do their jobs better, from the designer and client side.
And for designers to get paid what they're worth, while having fun along the way. Because every design project can be fun, even when working with clients in seemingly mundane industries. In fact, the more mundane the industry, the more scope there is to do something extraordinary.
David's new book will be out early 2019, featuring work from Base, Fedoriv, ico Design, Koto, OCD and Together (and many more).
You can pre-order from Amazon UK and Amazon US.

The following press releases should be considered  in the light of the
recently posted report of the first meeting of the NIH Task Force on Genetic
Testing. My apologies to all for the formatting.
Hans Goerl
ETHI editor
Headline: ONCOR, INC. RECEIVES FDA PERMISSION TO EXPORT CANCER TESTS
Oncor, Inc. announced today that it has received permission from the U.S.
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to export its investigational in vitro
diagnostic genetic test systems for HER-2/neu and Chronic Myelogenous
Leukemia (CML) Mbcrlabl to Austria, Switzerland, and Ireland. Applications
for permission to export these systems to other European countries are
pending.     The two in vitro diagnostic test kits completed multi-center
clinical investigations and are currently undergoing review for pre- market
approval at the FDA.  Oncor anticipates an FDA panel review will be
scheduled during the fourth quarter of 1995 for its HER-2/neu (ERBB2) Gene
Amplification Detection System for the characterization and management of
breast cancer.  Oncor filed a PMA application with the FDA for the test
system in February 1994.     Oncor, Inc. (http://www.oncorinc.com/home)
develops, manufactures and markets genetic test systems and related products
for use in the detection and management of cancer and other human disease.
Headline: BAYER CORPORATION AND MYRIAD GENETICS ANNOUNCE $71 M
Date: Tue, Sep 12, 1995
Bayer Corporation and Myriad Genetics, Inc., today jointly announced a
five-year strategic alliance focused on the discovery of genes which
predispose individuals to obesity, osteoporosis and asthma.  The
collaboration will combine Myriad's strengths in gene discovery and gene
characterization with Bayer's drug discovery, development and marketing
Myriad received a $10 million equity investment from Bayer
and, under the terms of the agreement, will receive $25 million in research
payments over the five year period.  In addition, Bayer will provide Myriad
with up to $36 million in milestone payments for the discovery and
characterization of genes related to obesity, osteoporosis and asthma.  In
exchange for future royalty payments to Myriad, Bayer will receive a
worldwide exclusive license to develop and commercialize therapeutic
products derived from the collaboration, including small- molecule, protein
replacement and gene therapeutics.  Myriad will retain worldwide diagnostic
rights, including the right to develop and market genetic tests that screen
for genes which predispose patients to obesity, osteoporosis and asthma.
"Our alliance with Myriad is a key component of our efforts to utilize
molecular genetics in Bayer's pharmaceutical discovery program. Myriad has
developed an impressive set of technologies for genetic discovery and is a
leader in locating and sequencing important disease- related genes," said
Horst Wallrabe, Executive Vice President, Bayer Corporation and President of
Bayer's Pharmaceutical Division.  "We look forward to collaborating with
Myriad and pursuing the development of important and innovative therapies."
Molecular genetics involves isolating genes and identifying the genetic
mutations involved in predisposing individuals to a particular disorder.
Understanding the genetic basis of disease may provide critical tools for
analyzing the molecular pathways in the disease process, and helps define
new targets against which innovative therapies can be designed.
Peter D. Meldrum, President and CEO of Myriad, commented: "Bayer is a
leader in the development and marketing of pharmaceutical products for
metabolic and respiratory disorders.  Bayer's participation in this
agreement underscores our strength in gene discovery and the potential for
advancing drug discovery using Myriad's technologies.  Our collaboration
with Bayer furthers Myriad's strategy of capitalizing on strategic alliances
to develop
therapeutic products based on our gene discoveries while retaining exclusive
rights to commercialize genetic testing products and services."
(MATERIALDELETED)
Myriad Genetics, Inc., based in Salt Lake City, Utah, is a gene
discovery and genetic testing company focused on the discovery and
commercialization of genes involved in major common disorders, including
cancer, heart disease, obesity, osteoporosis and asthma.  Myriad is
currently establishing a genetic testing and information business through
its wholly owned subsidiary, Myriad Genetic Laboratories, Inc.     In order
to accelerate its gene discovery programs, Myriad employs two synergistic
sets of technologies: the genetic analysis of large families performed by
Myriad's scientists and collaborators; and Myriad's advanced, proprietary
gene mapping, sequencing and cloning technologies.  This combined approach
provides an unparalleled resource in the gene discovery process and allows
for the rapid discovery of important disease-causing genes, as well as the
characterization of harmful mutations in those genes.  Using this strategy,
Myriad has made several major genetic discoveries during the last 18 months,
including the BRCA1 breast and ovarian cancer gene and the role of the MTS1
gene in many cancer types.
The Company intends to commercialize its gene discoveries by providing
genetic tests for individuals to determine whether or not they have
inherited gene mutations which may increase their risk for specific
diseases.  Myriad has developed a highly automated genetic testing platform
which the Company believes will enable it, once it has discovered and
sequenced a gene, to develop a test for genetic predisposition relatively
quickly and economically.
The Company believes that the
information gained from the tests that confirm genetic predisposition has
potential value to individuals and their health care providers in the
following areas: (i) proactive health care and lifestyle decisions that may
delay or prevent the onset of disease; (ii) early detection of disease; and
(iii) selection of the most appropriate treatment.

Kell Inkston is the author of Nocturna League series, Voidstar Empire series, and most recently Courts Divided series, all set in the Omniverse he created; as well as Breath series, which are short stories in a different setting (link to the author's website). The reading list of Kell Inkston's complete works are at the bottom of this page, in a reading order, together with covers and Amazon purchase links.
This author is one of my most recent, and one of my proudest literary discoveries. I fell in love with his Nocturna League series and since then have read almost all of his published works. Kell Inkston's writing style is quite unconventional, giving each of the characters a unique voice and a three-dimensional appearance. Apart from being perfectly consistent in his story lines, world building and character development, he possesses a beautiful expression and satirical inclination, as well. The author graciously agreed to answer several questions about himself and his writing.
Q1: Please tell us a bit about yourself. What made you become an author and how did your life change since you published your first novel, and then of course numerous subsequent novels and short stories?
A1: Hi there, Myriam! Thanks so much for having me!
I'll first state (for the sake of avoiding any confusion) that I try to remain pseudonymous in my writing, so I apologize in advance if I can't get too in-depth with what I have to say.
To answer what really made me an author is a tough question. It just sort of happened to me one day that I should make something for the betterment of the world, and I figured that crafting a narrative would be the most effective way to do it. Words are the clearest message we have next to physical action, after all, and you can't be everywhere at once; though your books can.
I became an author at a fairly early age inside my teenage years. I smashed out the original version of Kingdom Slayer, a high-action fantasy adventure featuring several of my most important characters. The book came in at a lengthy 144,000 words, and soon after finishing it, editing over many times, and taking it to market to publishers, I found it was simply too long for most first time authors. I had written something practically unpublishable because the printing costs associated with printing a complete unknown would be too risky for a book of that size, especially considering it was all I really had to show.
Many years later, here we are! I've published a good deal of books myself via amazon.com, and have little libraries of my writing scattered about at least a dozen places on the internet.
Q2: I love your author website, it is quite different than the usual author websites, as is your little avatar. What was the inspiration for your website, the avatar, and how were they created?
A2: Thank you! I wanted to go for a more minimalist approach to web design, considering most of the site would be writing based (as a writer) I wanted to avoid "salesy" vibes on my website, because I feel like it doesn't really communicate who I am very well. I understand that many authors get great success by having pop-up opt-ins and static landing pages and all that, and maybe one day I'll consider it, but for now I like keeping it simple, ink on paper and as relatable as an unknown person on the internet can be.
As for the avatar, I'm afraid I'll have to pull back a little for that one. Kell (the character, not me as the author) is someone you'll meet in the stories to come, and I hope you like him! He/it was carefully designed, from head to toe, so I'd dare say I'm proud of how Kell looks. Sorry I can't say more about this, there's just a lot about it buried away in secret at the moment.
Q3: You have the funniest and the most entertaining short story in the newsletter subscribe section of your website – Subscribe of Die! (link to the author's newsletter). What inspired you to write it?
A3: I wanted to have a humorous draw-in for my email list, to try and get readers to subscribe so I could have them join my beta reader team, street team, etc.. I also wanted to write something sort of spooky, but in a tongue and cheek sort of way. I went through my typical creative process and eventually decided it would be funny to have some partially-stereotypical teenagers from the American 80's try to solve the dark mystery of my evil id counterpart: Kill Bloodstain!
The objective was to write a story in a fairly campy 80's horror movie style, while still doing some tongue and cheek deconstruction of the thematic. It was super to put together!
It didn't take very long to write, either; lasting only about three days on my keyboard, but I was pretty proud of the result. I was worried that the heavy referential humor and parody might come off as offensive to some, but it turns out that everyone who told me they read it really really liked it. Maybe I'll do a full novel about it one day; just depends on what the readers want, I suppose.
Q4: Your latest novel Woodcastle was recently released, and two more books have been announced. How did you come up with the idea of such a mixed genre series and such exceptional, original and versatile characters, as well as the whole idea of Omniverse (which I will ask you about in detail in one of the following questions) and the space gates? I mean, how does one come up with characters like Negative Space Exploration and Research Minion or Ambient Atmosphere Creation Minions, not to mention all of the less complicated ones? And your necromancers are different than any other literary necromancers, what was the inspiration for all of them?
A4: Whoa, now this is going to be a lengthy one!
Woodcastle has been a labour of love for roughly three years, which started out at a stray NaNoWriMo project. Of course, I couldn't tell the whole story in just 50,000 words, so I stretched it out to something much closer to fantasy length.
The plotting and thematic for most of the story was pretty easy, as I had already written out the world and setting over the course of several previous books.
Did I mention that my first book Kingdom Slayer had three sequels? It did! It was a four book series, and I didn't try to publish any of them until they were all done, because I really, really didn't want to have inconsistencies. I'm a little more lax on mistakes now, but that's mostly because I don't usually have those kinds of accidents anymore unless it's a new world and series. That said, I still do try quite hard to deliver an immersive experience and a believable world within its bounds.
Coming up with creative ideas that made sense in the world was truly a step-by-step process. Most of these things I had put together down the road writing the four novels in Kingdom Slayer's series: Worlds Divided.
The space gates have been a hallmark of the novels since the very first one, it's just how people get around. I had to ask a whole lot of interesting logistical questions regarding that, of course, because so long as a person knows a gate code, they're more likely than not just able to put in the code and go to the corresponding gate, like a telephone that'll take you anywhere. I loved the idea of trans-dimensional travel, and I figured that sorts like Overlord Chaos and Royal Knight Order would be wasted talents if they didn't tangle with allies and enemies all across causality. This led to a few very big "why" questions that I'll answer throughout the books, so just keep your fingers crossed!
Overlord Chaos' Minions are a fun sort. Once he infests (or infuses, as they might say) they are conscripted into his service as about eight tenths of the creature or person they used to be, with the other two parts replaced with a full love and adoration for their dark master.
This leads to there being about as many minion varieties as there are minions, and Chaos, with his sort of one-track mind, figured having them each be great at one specific job would be the most efficient way to go about running his network of dimensional towers, known by most as Towerne. By the way, it was Naming Stuff Minion who came up with the name, as it is her sworn duty to come up with good or at least okay-sounding names when his mighty darkness isn't quite in the mood to do so.
As for the necromancer, I really had to reach deep into the bag for them. I wondered for a while just how cool it would be if necromancers could instil animation on just about anything, from old, dead organic matter, to less-expected things like furniture and flora. The idea was that by making their own bodies out of whatever they so pleased, they could gain an effective, if time-consuming form of immortality, as they would have to continuously craft bodies out of what they had available, and only the most skilled of necromancers can control their forms with any dexterity resembling a human. You'll find out much more about them in Gravetower, which I'm going to try to get out in June!
I hope that answers the question well enough!
Q5: Nocturna League is one of my favourite series ever written. If I am not mistaken, this is your first series in Omniverse? I feel like saying that it is written in your signature mixed genre style. Some of the characters are quite unusual, The Captain, Boris and the rest of the sea sorts. What inspired you to create such an unusual world filled with such unusual characters? I mean, all of your books are beautifully unusual, but Nocturna League has won my heart with its originality, Boris is my favourite character, and then The Captain and Grancis closely follow. Can you tell us more about these and other characters, and the world of Eversea?
A5: BORIS WOULD BE OF THE VERY GREATFUL FOR YOU OF THE SAYING OF SUCH THINGS!
Nocturna League is probably the favourite series I've written, partially because I still have a lot I still want to do with it, and I really have a soft spot for the characters.
It isn't technically the first series I have written, nor chronologically, but it was the first I released any fair volume of work on, so I often consider it my first officially.
I wanted to pull in a great many inspirations I had, but also mix them with other things I loved. Perhaps that's not a very literary or sensible reason, but there you have it.
I usually "50/30/20" my book's overall influences. The big "50" is from my previous books and the overarching plot of the work as a whole. The "30" is usually something I find really cool and want to try, like my own spin on a thematic, or a world, or something of that nature. The last "20" is my magical tone-shifting bad writing juice that I chug every morning, it's the one that causes all my mistakes and stabs me in my little metallic shins when my guard is down.
Anyway, considering the "world" of the books is a compiled group of dimensions, it would only be fair to continue adding new worlds and themes to it. There is a big reason why all of this is happening to these characters, but I can't tell you yet. I can't tell anyone anything yet about the beginning of the Rondian Space Gates or the great impending doom looming over these poor souls.
It's been fun, and I'm definitely going to write a lot more.
Q6: Voidstar Empire is a space adventure, of currently two books and a prequel, with three more books announced. It is also set in Omniverse, filled with even more unusual characters, and has a more serious tone. The main character Cole is incredibly unlikable, yet you managed to make the reader care about hitm. Can you tell us more about the setting and the characters, what was the inspiration? Where does it fit with the other two series and what is the connection with the initial two short stories Ketairne and Solution? And, of course, if you can tell us a bit about Cole, without giving spoilers.
A6: Voidstar Empire is another series I'm super proud of. I wanted to try and write something a little more in the popular reading vein, and I knew that military sci-fi was in at the time, so I thought I'd give it a whirl.
I really do like the books and I think they have something great to offer most readers.
Insects are cool, though! And it really got me to thinking how I would populate a full sci-fi universe all my own.
A small pet-peeve I have with a lot of fantasy and sci-fi presentations is that when crafting a race, the writers or artists always have to simplify the idea. Like they'll have a race of say, otters people, but they act exactly like the homo-sapien characters. I won't say I didn't do this too (I totally did,) but I figured for this series I would construct a society and caste-system expectant of an insect species that evolved to the point of advanced humans. That said, They have partial human sensibilities, but there's a lot in their society that we would find horrific but they wouldn't bat a pseudo pupil at.
That said rather than keeping the focus wholly on shooting the dickens out of some stupid backwards alien race, I did that while also pacing in and out with some commentary on inter-species relations and all that good typical sci-fi stuff.
Also I'm glad you don't like Cole. You'll continue to not-like-but-still-sympathize-with-him for a little while. I've pushed back the other books in the series until I have get around to them, though, so you may have to wait a little while for the next instalments.
Both Solution and Ketairne take place after this series.
Last thing, Cole has a whole lot to do with another character from another series.
Q7: For now, it is obvious that all of the series we mentioned until now are set in Omniverse – Courts Divided, Nocturna League and Voidstar Empire and each of the series comes with its own set of unique and original characters, depending on which part of the Omniverse they occupy; only humans are constant. Where do you get the inspiration for so many different creatures, and what can you tell us about Omniverse? Can you add more details than you already mentioned in the books without giving spoilers? Are we talking multiple worlds, planets or dimensions, or all of the above?
A7: Uh oh, I'll try to explain it as best I can in the space allotted.
That said, The Omniverse is actually a compilation of every "lower" dimension to ever exist, alongside the spaces that occupy the zones between these dimensions (subspace), and even those within the mathematical negative axis of them (negative space). These lower dimensions is 99% of the characters live out their day to day lives, completely unaware of the greater and grander scope of things beyond them.
On a layer above that we have the "higher" dimensions, known by the few that are aware of it as "The Foot of the Mountain". These higher beings refer to the lower dimensions as "The World of the Pools" as to travel to one directly one must hop in the realm's corresponding body of water.
Yes, it's very, very referential.
In this Foot of the Mountain is multiple kingdoms, each one a domain over a full field of reality.
For instance there is Dreamlend, the kingdom that rules over the inspiration of knowledge and the subconscious collective. It is through this great thought form that Dreamlend's rulers instil knowledge upon those in the Lower Dimensions. This is why things like Latin, toasters, and the writings of Shakespeare exist in so many dimensions, each one thought they were the ones to come up with it!
That's just an example, there's lots and lots more to learn about The Omniverse, or as I like to call it, the Ink Realm!
Q8: The last but not least, you published two short stories Paper, and Nail, which are the only two of your stories which are not part of Omniverse. They are written more in the style of bed time stories. What I liked most about these two stories was how they focus on the dangers of ignorance supported by peer pressure. What inspired you to write them and will there be more short stories in the Breath series?
A8: I'm glad you like them! I'm still undecided if I want to go forward with the series, but I do have a "fourth" episode written already, because it's the fourth town chronologically. I think I will finish it up, but probably not anytime very soon.
I thought that paper being an object of both liberation and enslavement would be a really interesting idea to play with, and I just took it really far and tried making a whole world about it. The setting is technically post apocalyptic, so I think that'll be a good twist if I ever go on with it.
Q9: What kind of books do you like to read?
A9: I read self-help and how-to books nearly every day. I really like seeing how other people solve their problems in one way or another, and then maybe applying some of those solutions to my own situations.
Second to that are fairy tales and classical fiction.
Third would be postmodern fiction. I really really like it when people push the medium, and I'd like to try it out someday as well! It always comes to a shock to me when I think about all the things I haven't tried yet. Life is truly a mysterious and blessed thing to allow the existence of art, I think.
Q10: What have you planned for the readers in the next couple of years?
A10: I'm going to try to push roughly three shorts and three novels minimum each year, but I want to do more. I suppose here's hoping that I sell a ton of books all of a sudden and can start writing full-time, but until then people will have to make do with a steady pace.
They can expect to see Courts Divided finished this year, probably one to two episodes in Nocturna League, and a few short stories.
Also, I'll be rolling out audiobooks fairly soon. I've been in the works with a very talented producer, and I think I may have finally found the one. We'll see, fingers crossed on that, but I am hopeful that my readers may soon be listeners as well!
Original, fresh, satirical, gripping, addictive series about the adventures of the ship Nocturna's crew sailing on the Eversea, which is set somewhere in the author's Omniverse. I am not sure about the genre or the mix of genres applied. There is a ship and a crew but I don't think they are pirates, but I am not sure. There are humanoid creatures called seasort but that is exactly what they are land-walking humanoid sea creatures, they are not shapeshifters. Then there is magic, but it is not clear where it's coming from. I was sold the moment I saw the covers which are basically the same with minimal variations for all five books, and I still have no idea why, I was just convinced that I have to read this series. After the first book, I was quite angry that I had to make a break, because I really, really did not want to stop reading.
More books have been announced.
This is another series set in the Omniverse, but more of a sci-fi genre, with a lot of space ships and aliens. The main character is highly unlikable Cole, and the series follows his adventures. Without a doubt, it is another great addictive series that makes you care about the unlovable character, and eagerly read on to see what happens next.
These stories are only related by Omniverse and re-count two unrelated events, first one about a mission gone wrong on a planet that should have been left alone and the second one is a philosophical contemplation of humanity v. A.I within a recount of one event of the encounter of two space ships and their crews, somewhere in the Omniverse.
Series following the adventures of the Royal Knights while they try to keep peace and protect their realm from Lord Chaos. The series is set in another part of the author's Omniverse. The main character is Meeo, Knight Love, accompanied by her best friend and the most impressive mage of the Omniverse, Knight Order. There is Knight Law, Meeo's adopted son and dragon halfling, and an array of interesting characters. And of course there are Lord Chaos' Minions. Lots and lots of Minions.
These two books are true original fairy tales about magic, ancient legends, heroes, Dark Overlord, magical objects and the dangers of ignorance. Truly unique stories, written in a beautiful way of Kell Inkston, encompassing all of his uniqueness and originality, as well as unexpected twists and unexpected heroes.
There was an announcement of a new series in Omniverse.
More about Kell Inkston, the Nocturna League Series, and his other books is available on Goodreads and the author's website.
A nice interview with blogger Myriam!
Thanks so much for the opportunity for the interview!

Passivity will not save a director of failed corporations from disqualification: Maley and the Australian Securities and Investments Commission [2013] AATA 924
Australia February 25 2014
This case serves as an important reminder that board appointments should not be taken lightly - even as a "personal favour". Directors should ensure that they are sufficiently abreast of the affairs of their companies and actively involved in their management. An argument that a director was "not really involved" in management is unlikely to find favour when the company finds itself in strife.
Mr Maley was the director of 5 companies which, after his resignation, were wound up on the grounds of insolvency. This case involved an appeal from a decision by ASIC to disqualify Mr Maley from managing corporations for two years pursuant to section 206F of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) which gives a discretion to disqualify if a person has been an officer of at least 2 companies that have failed within the last 7 years.
Liquidators' reports confirmed that the companies were mismanaged and possible breaches of the Corporations Act were reported, including a failure to maintain adequate books and records and insolvent trading. Mr Maley contended that he only accepted the appointments as a personal favour (in connection with a loan) and the failure to remove him was an oversight. On this basis, he argued that he was not really involved in the management of the failed companies and that there was insufficient evidence of his involvement to warrant disqualification.
The Administrative Appeals Tribunal found that a disqualification period of 2 years was not excessive. It noted the following in relation to the factors to be considered under section 206F(2):
beyond having Mr Maley as a common director, there was little evidence of the companies being related to one another and as such it could not be established that the collapse of the different companies was part of one episode of failure;
Mr Maley's claim that he was not involved in the management of the failed companies did not excuse his behaviour. His conduct as a director was considered culpable even if he was not actively involved in the affairs of the companies as the mismanagement occurred "on his watch"; and
it is in the public interest to remove directors with a track record of failure and thus on balance, the public interest favoured Mr Maley's disqualification.
See the case.
