Back to school – Keyword advertising 101
August 31, 2015 August 31, 2015 By Clark WilsonIn Case Law, Protection & Enforcement
In the 21st century, when advertising is frequently conducted via the Internet, the use of keyword advertising has become an increasingly contentious point of trade-mark law.
In short, keyword advertising is a form of online advertising in which a business selects words or phrases (the "keywords") that trigger its advertisements to appear when the user of a search engine performs a search using those keywords. The advertisements typically appear alongside the organic search results produced by the search engine.
Where multiple companies use the same keywords to trigger advertisements, the search engine will use an algorithm to select which company's advertisements actually appear and in what order, based at least in part on the amount each business is willing to pay for the advertisement. The difficulty from a trade-mark perspective is that businesses frequently choose competitors' trade-marks as keywords.
There has been little development in Canadian jurisprudence in the area since the first Canadian decision on keyword advertising in 2010. Last week, the Supreme Court of British Columbia, writing through Justice Affleck, tackled the issue head-on in Vancouver Community v. Vancouver Career (Burnaby) Inc., 2015 BCSC 1470.
In this case, the Vancouver Community College ("Community") brought a passing off action against the Vancouver Career College ("Career") in which it alleged, among other claims, that Career, principally through keyword advertising, misrepresented its educational services as those of Community. As part of its claims, Community objected to the use of the acronym VCC by Career as part of the latter's keyword advertising campaign, notwithstanding Community's unregistered, common law trade-mark rights in VCC. The evidence showed that Community used VCC as a trade-mark from 1965 until 1990, when it largely abandoned the use of VCC, until 2013, when significant use resumed.
Ultimately, Justice Affleck concluded that there was no passing off by Career, since Community failed to meet the first part of the test for passing off, in that it did not have sufficient goodwill and acquired distinctiveness in its unregistered VCC trade-mark to impart a secondary meaning to consumers. However, the trial judge went on to discuss the second part of the test, namely, whether Career had caused confusion by misrepresenting its services as those of Community. In doing so, Justice Affleck made the following comments of interest:
-on bidding by advertisers, and the operation and process of searching using search engines – "a bid on a keyword may send a searcher to the bidder's landing page, but the process of the search is controlled by the searcher and the search engine, not by the advertiser".
-on when a first impression is made on the consumer – consistent with the decision in Insurance Corporation of British Columbia v. Stainton Ventures Ltd., 2014 BCCA 296 (the "ICBC Decision"), "the "first impression" cannot arise on a [search] at an earlier time than when the searcher reaches a website […] the "relevant consumer" will "understand that it is necessary to view a website to determine whose site it is" [citing the ICBC Decision]. In my opinion that is the point during a search when the relevant first impression is made".
-on bidding on another company's trade-mark as a keyword – "to award damages to the plaintiff or to enjoin the defendant from certain conduct because the defendant bids on the plaintiff's name for the purposes of keyword advertising would be to disadvantage the defendant in a way that other online advertisers are not".
In the result, Justice Affleck concluded that Career did not cause confusion by taking advantage of the keyword advertising service offered by Google.
Other than the issue of keyword advertising, which we expect is the point that will garner the most interest and commentary from practitioners, the decision is interesting for:
-Justice Affleck's reliance on the ICBC Decision, as referenced above, which sparked its own interest for its assessment of when a "first impression" is made upon Internet users;
-Justice Affleck's disposition of the official mark issue raised by Community in essentially 3 brief paragraphs without going into detail, such as whether Career actually used VCC as a trade-mark prior to publication of Community's official mark for VCC;
-Justice Affleck's finding that Community's VCC mark enjoys "goodwill in the educational services it provides, but [has] not achieved a "secondary meaning" in the marketplace", which contrasts with the comments of the Trade-marks Opposition Board (the "Board") with respect to Community's VCC mark in an earlier decision in which the Board rejected Career's application to register the trade-mark VCCollege.ca; and
-Justice Affleck's observation that Community's action for passing off was an attempt to handicap Career, and was "motivated by a concern that its own inability to invest the necessary funds and expertise to create a sophisticated online advertising program leaves it at a competitive disadvantage in the marketplace in comparison with [Career]".
Community has until September 19, 2015 to appeal Justice Affleck's decision to the British Columbia Court of Appeal.
Just in time for the Olympics – a Race to the Trademark Podium
February 6, 2014 February 6, 2014 By Neil MellishipIn Case Law, Famous Marks, Protection & Enforcement
As we approach the opening ceremonies of the 2014 Olympic Winter Games in Sochi, the Canadian Olympic Committee (COC) has launched a lawsuit against outdoor apparel maker The North Face in the British Columbia Supreme Court, over allegations that it is infringing on Olympic trademarks through ambush marketing techniques.
The COC is seeking an injunction against The North Face and unspecified damages. Readers of this blog will recall that the 2010 Winter Olympic Games in Vancouver/Whistler featured many similar skirmishes and special legislation enacted to assist the COC in its ongoing battle against ambush marketing.
As reported in the Globe and Mail, the North Face is not a sponsor of the Olympic games, but introduced a new line of clothing in November 2013. The clothing line, originally launched as the Villagewear Collection, was renamed as the International Collection in response to complaints by the COC.
The clothing line, which includes jackets, toques and bags, is decorated with the colours and flags of various countries. This includes items bearing the Canadian flag which feature the colours red and white. Some items featured a patch with the symbol "RU 14" which, according to the COC, is a reference to the Winter Olympic games in Sochi, Russia. Other merchandise showed a world map with a red star where Sochi is located. A t-shirt featured the date of the opening ceremonies for the Games.
.CA Domain Names Held To Be Personal Property
January 14, 2014 January 14, 2014 By Neil MellishipIn Case Law, Domain Name Disputes, Domain Names
A recent Ontario Superior Court of Justice decision (Court File No. CV-13-480391) has held that .CA domain names are personal property and as such are subject to the rules that govern any other type of personal property, including those against wrongful conversion. Perhaps more importantly, the case appears to stand for the proposition that title in .CA domain names exists independently of the registration of those domain names.
17 .CA domain names were in issue, including mold.ca and mould.ca. All were registered by Mr. Sullivan in his own name for the benefit of a company that he co-founded with Mr. Dalrymple, called Mold.Ca Inc. (Mold.Ca Inc.) The business of Mold.Ca Inc., not surprisingly, involves mold inspection and removal services in the Greater Toronto area. Sullivan purchased the domain names using the company's credit card but listed himself as the Registrant of all of the domain names, rather than Mold.Ca Inc., unbeknownst to Dalrymple.
Sullivan parted ways with Dalrymple and Mold.Ca Inc. a year later, while Mold.Ca Inc. continued to carry on its business, as before. Unbeknownst to Dalrymple, Sullivan retained the domain name registrations and the passwords for the domain name registrations and then subsequently transferred the domain name registrations to a third party (Romelus). Once Dalrymple found out about the above events, he commenced a Canadian Internet Registration Authority (CIRA) Dispute Resolution Proceeding (CDRP) against Romelus. The CDRP proceeding were unsuccessful because there was no evidence that the domain names had been registered by Romelus in bad faith (they hadn't been), nor was there evidence that they were being used for other than legitimate purposes by Romelus.
Following the failed CDRP proceeding, Romelus transferred the domain names back to Sullivan and Sullivan began using them in a competing business to that of Mold.Ca Inc. Undaunted by its loss in the CDRP, this turn of events led to Mold.Ca Inc. to commence proceedings in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice. Finding in favour of Mold.Ca Inc., the Court held that "the issue is a simple matter of property law", whereby title to the domain names belongs to the company, which had been wrongly converted by Sullivan. The Court therefore ordered that all of the domain names, including all administrative information and passwords, be transferred to Mold.Ca Inc.
MACDIMSUM: Challenging a Family of Marks
September 13, 2013 September 13, 2013 By Clark WilsonIn Case Law, Famous Marks, Registration, Trademark Oppositions
In Cheah v. McDonald's Corporation, the Federal Court of Canada held that MACDIMSUM is likely to be confusing with the MacDonald's family of trademarks. Focusing on the evidence presented, the Court distinguished several earlier cases in which McDonald's failed to preclude other businesses from using the MC or MAC prefix, including McDonald's Corporation v. Silcorp Ltd (1989) and McDonald's Corporation v. Coffee Hut Stores Ltd (1996), where McDonald's failed to prevent the use of MAC for convenience stores and MCBEAN for a coffee business. In Cheah, the Applicant, who was self‑represented, did not meet the onus on him to prove the mark was registrable. It was also important that the application was simply for the word MACDIMSUM and not for that word in any particular type style or in combination with any other word or design. Since a proposed use application was at issue, the Court stated that it must remain open to the fact that the trademark could potentially be used in any type style, with any combination of words or design, and in any trade environment as may present itself from time to time.
The Applicant failed to present any evidence of actual use and during cross‑examination he acknowledged he had not yet finalized plans regarding use. McDonald's' evidence focused on its family of marks and included affidavits regarding McDonald's "four score" trademarks, use and advertising in Canada, as well as an expert survey.
In dismissing the appeal, the Court stated that the evidence presented regarding use or intended use is critical to a decision such as this. While the respondent McDonald's Corporation presented considerable evidence to oppose the registration of the word MACDIMSUM, the Applicant presented little probative evidence throughout the proceedings. The Court also accepted the survey that McDonald's presented, which involved showing certain members of the public a card bearing the word MACDIMSUM, and others a card bearing the word MAZDIMSUM. Based on the results, the expert concluded that a statistically significant portion of consumers would identify the McDonald's as the source of the MACDIMSUM food products.
The Court also found that the Applicant's evidence of the use of MC and MAC in other jurisdictions was largely hearsay and did not establish dilution in Canada. Finally, the Court found no merit in the Applicant's assertion that he was being bullied, noting that the McDonald's counsel was proper and courteous. Instead, a hint of the Applicant's true intention was to be found in a letter in which he suggested the possibility of "a global MACDIMSUM partnership".
Trademark Interlocutory Injunction Denied
July 12, 2013 July 12, 2013 By Clark WilsonIn Case Law, Protection & Enforcement, Trademark Oppositions
A recent decision of the Saskatchewan Court of Appeal, setting aside the interlocutory injunction granted by the Chambers judge, illustrates how difficult it is to obtain an interlocutory injunction absent convincing evidence that satisfies the three part test for an interlocutory injunction. In Kulyk v. Wildman (Weight Loss Forever Consulting), the Saskatchewan Court of Queen's Bench granted the plaintiff an interlocutory injunction precluding the defendant from using or carrying on business under the plaintiff's alleged business name and trademark, "Global Healthcare Connections" and directing the defendant to remove all references to the plaintiff's mark on social media sources. In assessing the plaintiff's application, the Chambers judge looked to Potash Corp. of Saskatchewan Inc. v. Mosaic Potash Esterhazy Limited Partnership which set out the well‑established test for an interlocutory injunction:
(1) the strength of the plaintiff's case;
(2) the presence of a meaningful risk of irreparable harm if the injunction is not granted; and,
(3) whether the balance of convenience favours the granting of the injunction.
The Court of Appeal allowed the appeal and held that the plaintiff's application for injunctive relief was based on the common law tort of passing off, which in turn, required evidence of goodwill, deception of the public due to misrepresentation, and actual or potential damage to the plaintiff. The Court stated that the plaintiff's case was weak because she failed to put forth any evidence to establish the existence of goodwill associated with the name Global Healthcare Connections. The plaintiff's affidavit referred to various steps she had taken to launch her business, but it also stated that she had had difficulty launching her business because of the defendant's actions. Thus, there was no evidence that the plaintiff or her services were known in the market.
The Court found it unnecessary to assess the remaining elements of the common law tort, although it did comment on these. With respect to the element of irreparable harm, the Court disagreed with the Chambers judge's finding that the plaintiff had suffered loss of business, finding instead, that the similarity between the names used by the parties would likely result in a benefit rather than harm to the plaintiff's business. Noting that a balance of convenience analysis could be "compendious", the Court was satisfied that the balance of convenience also favoured the defendant, given the weakness of the plaintiff's case and given that irreparable harm favoured the defendant. Thus, the Chambers judge's decision could not stand.
Injunction for Trademark Infringement: Québec
June 4, 2013 June 4, 2013 By Clark WilsonIn Branding, Case Law, Protection & Enforcement, Uncategorized
In Solutions Abilis Inc. v. Groupe Alithis Inc., the Québec Superior Court granted the plaintiff an interlocutory injunction precluding the defendant from using ALITHIS as part of its corporate name or trade name or as a trademark. The test for an interlocutory injunction in Québec turns on whether the rights which the plaintiff invokes are clear, doubtful or non-existent. If those rights are clear an injunction should be granted if serious harm would otherwise result. If those rights are doubtful the court must also consider the balance of convenience. This test is similar, although not identical, to the test used in the common law provinces where the courts must consider whether there is a serious issue to be tried, irreparable harm and the balance of conclusive irreparable harm.
After setting out the test the Court then considered the plaintiff's trademark rights, starting from the premise that trademarks are a guarantee of origin and intended to protect the public by indicating the source of the goods and services. The Court then focused on whether there was confusion, finding that the plaintiff's marks,
were inherently distinctive, since the included word, ABILIS, was a coined term with 3 syllables that created a strong sonority – "ab-il-is" and because of the use and position of the "it" and "ti" symbols in the marks. The defendant's mark,
also used 3 syllables and a symbol.
The length of time also favoured the plaintiff and the nature of the trade was similar, namely computer consulting services. The Court was not willing to accept the defendants' argument that persons purchasing computer services would take time to determine the source, noting that initial interest confusion was sufficient and might, among other things, result in the plaintiff not being invited to bid for a potential customer's work. The Court was also convinced there was a sufficient degree of resemblance, referencing a number of Québec cases where the degree of resemblance led to a finding of confusion even where the goods or services were different.
Since the likelihood of confusion was clear, a loss of goodwill and clientele were presumed and therefore the injunction was granted. A decision regarding the balance of convenience was not necessary, but the Court noted, in the event of an appeal, that it favoured the plaintiff, particularly given the shorter period of time the defendants had been in the market.
Both Here and There: Trademark Use on Websites Available in Canada
January 21, 2013 January 21, 2013 By Clark WilsonIn Case Law, Registration
According to a December, 2012 decision of the Federal Court, HomeAway.com, Inc v. Hrdlicka, "a trade-mark which appears on a computer screen website in Canada, regardless where the information may have originated from or be stored, constitutes for Trade-marks Act purposes, use and advertising in Canada." This broad statement suggests that the appearance of a trade-mark on a computer screen is sufficient whether or not services are available or performed in Canada. However, the decision is best understood in context.
HomeAway.com, which acquired and now operates the well known Vacation Rentals by Owner or VRBO website at VRBO.com, sought to expunge the trade-mark VRBO which Hrdlicka had applied to register in 2009 for use in association with services described as "vacation real estate listing services". HomeAway.com sought to establish prior use of VRBO. HomeAway.com had a computer presence in Canada, but no physical presence. In analyzing section 4(2) of the Act which states that "a trade-mark is deemed to be used in association with services if it is used or displayed in the performance or advertising of those services", the Court noted that there was little jurisprudence regarding use by means of a computer screen display. The Court then adopted the concept that an activity can be "both here and there" from a series of earlier cases involving tax, criminal activity and copyright and sought to interpret section 4(2) "in a manner consistent with modern day realities", namely "that information which is stored in one country can be said to exist in another; in this case Canada."
The Court then went on to describe the HomeAway.com business as being "advertising, on its website, homes, apartments and the like owned by third persons who wish to rent them to others", suggesting that HomeAway.com offers the same services as the Classifieds section of a newspaper. The Court used the accessing of properties in "Montreal" and "Niagara-on-the-Lake" as examples of how the website might be used. It is not clear whether there was actual evidence before the Court of Canadians posting and accessing properties on the website, but presumably this was available.
In the circumstances, Hrdlicka's registration was expunged in light of HomeAway.com's prior use, the absence of any use by Hrdlicka until 2012 and evidence that Hrdlicka was trying to sell his trade-mark to HomeAway.com.
The question now is whether the mere appearance of a trade-mark in advertising available on a website in Canada is enough to constitute use in association with services. However, when the statement from the Federal Court is read in context, it would appear that the services must be available to or accessed by Canadians. Some further case law may be necessary to clarify this point.

Q: Golang MySQL querying undefined amount of args using IN operator I'm trying to use a MySQL query using the IN operator with undefined amount of arguments into my Golang project.
I'm using the package github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql and tried to build my solution on this Stackoverflow answer : How to execute an IN lookup in SQL using Golang?
I've read some similar posts giving me some advices about the way to go, but I'm stuck on the execution part of the query, because it does not allow the direct use of a slice as argument.
//converting my form args []string into []int
var args []int
for _, v := range r.Form["type"] {
    t, _ := strconv.Atoi(v)
    args = append(args, t)
}

sql := "SELECT id, name FROM resources WHERE id IN (SELECT resource_id FROM resources_types WHERE type_id IN (?" + strings.Repeat(",?", len(args)-1) + "))"
fmt.Println("Query : ", sql)
stmt, _ := db.Prepare(sql)
rows, err := stmt.Query(args)
defer stmt.Close()

Golang returns me an error at execution :

Query : SELECT id, name FROM resources WHERE id IN (SELECT resource_id
  FROM resources_types WHERE type_id IN (?,?))
  "sql: statement expects 2 inputs; got 1"

It works when I try with
rows, err := stmt.Query(args[0], args[1])

But as I need an undefined number of arguments, it isn't a solution. Is it at least possible to get it working with MySQL ?

A: Stmt.Query() has a variadic parameter:
func (s *Stmt) Query(args ...interface{}) (*Rows, error)

This means you can use the ellipsis ... to pass a slice value as the value of the variadic parameter, but that slice must be of type []interface{}, e.g.:
var args []interface{}
for _, v := range r.Form["type"] {
    t, _ := strconv.Atoi(v)
    args = append(args, t)
}

// ...

rows, err := stmt.Query(args...)

As an alternative, you could pre-build the SQL query and execute without passing query arguments, for an example see Go and IN clause in Postgres.

Major Milestone Achieved For Severn Trent
Costain has completed another major milestone at its £20 million update of the Severn Trent Frankley Water Treatment Works.
The new treatment works' tank structure is now complete, following the final concrete pour to seal up the access doorway on the contact tank. The contact tank – which has the capacity of several Olympic-sized swimming pools – is where the water is held after being dosed with chlorine. It and the valve chambers, mixing and blending chambers and a new high-level pumping station are now undergoing M&E (mechanical and electrical) commissioning, in preparation for the introduction of the water supply this year. When up and running the system will further increase the reliability and security of water supplies to Severn Trent's 1.4 million customers in and around Birmingham.
The concrete build was a major undertaking, said Jay Standen, Costain Delivery Manager. "This may look like the straightforward construction of a concrete box but it was in fact 13 conjoined structures of varying size, shape and complexity. It also included over 50 built in covers, numerous penstock openings, weir walls and 37 cast in pipe starters which all needing very exact positioning and construction to ensure the required accuracy."
The build required more than 7000m3 of concrete and more than 1000 tonnes of steel reinforcement, and involved more than 80 wall pours up to seven metres high and 850mm thick. Pours of up to 400m3 in volume were carried out by one of the largest concrete mobile pumps in the UK.
David Doe, Costain Works Superintendant, said: "It was a very proud moment for us all as the final pour was completed. This achievement has been made possible through the commitment and endeavour of everyone at the Frankley Water Treatment Works site."
Jonathan Wagstaff, Severn Trent's Programme Manager for the project, added: "This is a significant milestone in the completion of a major project for Severn Trent Water. The quality of the structure itself is a credit to the hard work of the team and will provide a lasting legacy, serving our customers for many years to come."

Le manoir d'Hahkiala () est situé à Hauho dans la municipalité d'Hämeenlinna en Finlande.

Présentation
Le bâtiment principal en pierre de deux étages du manoir a été construit en 1915-1917 selon le plan de l'architecte Karl Lindahl.
L'édifice est symétrique et son style évoque le classicisme baroque de l'époque Vaasa.

Le bâtiment principal est entouré d'un parc arboré.
Le parc et le jardin datent du début du 19e siècle.
La composition actuelle du parc, qui descend à travers les terrasses vers la vue sur le lac, a été conçue par l'architecte paysagiste .

Un ancien chemin, bordé de bouleaux et de chênes, mène va du manoir jusqu'à l'église d'Hauho.

Histoire
Le grand domaine de Hahkiala est créé en 1651 lorsque le lieutenant-colonel normand Toussaint Charpentier reçoit le domaine du roi de Suède pour ses mérites durant la Guerre de Trente Ans.
Lorsque Toussaint Charpentier arrive à Hahkiala, les terres sont cultivées par des paysans. Des temps instables et, en partie, la négligence ont été les raisons pour lesquelles la propriété des Charpentiers sur Hahkiala ne s'est stabilisée qu'à la fin du XVIIe siècle.
Elle sera finalement consolidé en 1765 par une ordonnance d'héritage statutaire.

De 1730 à 1782, la ferme appartient à Claes Robert Charpentier.
Il agrandit considérablement le manoir en achetant des terres dans les environs.
Il construit aussi un nouveau bâtiment principal pour remplacer le bâtiment principal détruit dans un incendie de 1694.

En l'absence d'héritier direct, le roi Gustave III approuve le transfert du domaine par testament au neveu de Claes Robert Charpentier, Carl Fredrik L'Eclair.
Le roi l'anoblit et lui donne le droit d'utiliser le nom des Charpentiers.

Carl Fredrik épousé Margareta Blomcreutz. Ils auront 20 enfants, dont 16 ont vécu plus longtemps que leurs parents.

En 1882, le manoir d'Hahkiala devient la propriété de Gustaf Robert Alfred Charpentier qui deviendra plus tard sénateur.
C'est  un agriculteur très dynamique et il fait de nombreuses réformes à Hahkiala.
Une grange et des bâtiments d'étable, une laiterie, un entrepôt de céréales et des serres, ainsi qu'une usine de briques et une scierie sont construits.
Des logements sont construits pour les ouvriers, une école pour les enfants des éleveurs et une maison de retraite pour personnes âgées.
Un nouveau champ est obtenu en abaissant la surface du lac Hyvikkälä entourant le manoir en creusant le chenal actuel appelé Kaivanto-oja.
En plus du champ, se sont formés le lac  et le lac .

Axel Fredrik Charpentier hérite du domaine à la mort du sénateur en 1914.
Il y construit le bâtiment principal actuel de la ferme entre 1915 et 1917.
Au décès d'Axel Fredrik Charpentier, l'espace a été divisé entre les héritiers en 1950, et l'on a créé les terroirs d'Hahkiala central, Länsi-Hahkiala et Itä-Hahkiala.

L'époque de la famille Charpentier prend fin en 1963, lorsque le manoir, nommé Keski-Hahkiala, est vendu à Kesko pour devenir un centre de formation.
Aujourd'hui, le manoir est une propriété privée.

Alexander Masters' Stuart: A Life Backwards, about a homeless man, has won The Guardian First Book award, beating out aapro Suketu among others. Masters met Stuart in 1998 when he was interviewing homeless people for a Cambridge newspaper, and began slowly collecting Stuart stories. In July 2002, Stuart killed himself.
It can't have been easy to write Stuart's story.
If Masters picks the wrong day to talk to Stuart about being raped, for example – if it is not "at the end of an untroubled week, when he has money to spend from the dole, so there's a distraction to look forward to in the evening" – Stuart "drinks, cuts himself, and then injects citric acid".
I wonder if Masters thinks his questions ever made Stuart worse, maybe pushed him over the edge? "I don't know," he says. "It has occurred to me. He was questioning himself all the time, anyway, but that doesn't get me out of it, because I was focusing the question and giving it a sort of a push. And there were times when it was uncomfortable, and he'd have to tell me to stop. It could have made him worse. I hope it didn't. I don't think I would have gone on had I felt it was making him worse".


Even though with the thick-wall stainless steel construction and reinforced handles, our large and medium HexScoops are light enough to drag behind you all day. The handheld model is perfect for getting down in the sand. Each scoop is emblazoned with a laser-cut White's logo – perfect for showing the competition who runs the beach!

A small native tree (5-8 metres) with rounded canopy, produces a brilliant display of deep red flowers on red stems in spring to summer and unlike Brachychiton acerifolius, retains its leaves when flowering. It has large, lush acer-shaped leaves. It is a stunning small tree, hardy, frost and drought tolerant.


Background: The complete DNA (the genome) of many plants is sometimes duplicated or even triplicated. While whole-genome duplication often leads to an evolutionary dead end, when a new species group originates from such an event, the duplicated genome may provide a selective advantage in evolution. An example of a group that probably originated through whole-genome duplication is the core eudicots, which include the majority of flowering plants. Because of its importance, this ancient event was given a specific name, the gamma event.
Question: While we previously showed that the core eudicots originated from the gamma event, it is not known how the duplicated genome contributed to the success of this group. Why is it that in some cases duplicated genes can determine evolutionary success? In fact, usually one copy is quickly lost again. To answer this, we studied how MADS box genes, which control how a plant develops, were affected by the gamma event.
Findings: Using statistical methods that estimate what proteins looked like millions of years ago in combination with gene synthesis, ancient proteins can be "resurrected." By resurrecting ancient MADS domain proteins before and after the gamma event, we found that this event had a dramatic influence on how these proteins work together. Because their interactions changed, their functions changed; therefore, the plants deriving from the gamma event had a different toolbox to develop. So, our study illustrates how ancient whole-genome duplications can innovate in evolution.
Next steps: Although we describe specifically how the toolbox changed, we did not examine the direct consequences of these changes for the plant's development. Doing this could reveal the concrete steps evolution took after whole-genome duplication.

Honda promises that the new Accord will be the most fun-to-drive of them all, while also being the most premium and dramatically styled.
Honda recently teased the new generation of the Accord and we already told you all about it. In its 10th generation now, Honda has teased the car with a sketch and the car will be revealed on the 14th of July 2017. Honda promises that the new Accord will be the most fun-to-drive of them all, while also being the most premium and dramatically styled. The new design was done from the scratch and the car will have a more aggressive stance and sharper body proportions in comparison to the current car. The overall appearance of the car will be wider and lower with an athletic looking body.
Honda had previously revealed some details on the new Accord's power options. The V6 is out and has been replaced by a pair of turbocharged four cylinder mills and the manufacturer's next-generation hybrid system. The two new turbo-charged engines on the 2018 Honda Accord will be a 1.5-litre unit and a 2.0-litre unit (which is the same as the one seen on the Civic Type R).
The 1.5-litre unit could be specified with either a regular CVT or a sporty 6-speed manual transmission. Also, the 2.0-litre unit will have an industry first 10-speed automatic gearbox along with a 6-speed manual transmission as an option. The third engine option on the new-gen Accord will be the one with Honda's two-motor hybrid technology.
The new Accord will be launched in USA first and will be manufactured at Honda's facilities in Ohio and Georgia. The company had also announced an investment of $149 million at these two plants in order to facilitate manufacturing of the new Accord. India will of course get the tenth generation of the Accord, but don't expect it to come anytime soon. Honda says that the tenth-generation Accord is all-new from the ground up. Given the success of previous Accords, the new model has some rather large shoes to fill.

An Anniversary
by Robert Louis Wilken 1 . 8 . 10
The following is a sermon delivered in 1971, at the tenth anniversary of Fr. Richard John Neuhaus' installation as pastor of St. John the Evangelist Church in Brooklyn, New York.
In 1961, Richard John Neuhaus was installed as pastor of St. John's Lutheran Church in Brooklyn. Several days later he wrote me. "Installed Misericordias Domini"much pomp, ceremony, and incense." It was the last word I heard from him for almost six months. It was as though he had been swallowed up by the city and his new congregation. For Fr. Richard as well as for the people of St. John's the day of installation was a glorious occasion. For him it was the realization of a dream he had had since early in his seminary days, and for the people of St. John's it was, they hoped, the beginning of a new day.
Though the installation was celebrated with much pomp, ceremony, and incense, and with fervent prayers that God would bless the new past, it was not a time of great hope and promise for St. John's. The 1950s were harsh years for the congregation"declining membership, lack of support from neighboring congregations, desperate financial problems, and, from the district, lack of sympathy and understanding. Indeed the financial crisis was so serious that the congregation could not promise him a regular salary.
Yet there were some signs of hope and promise. Fr. Klopf, the previous pastor, had sensed the challenge of a genuinely urban ministry, had begun to meet the challenge; he had enriched and deepened the liturgical and sacramental life of the congregation, and he was a pioneer among Lutherans in racial integration.
Over the next ten years Fr. Richard gained notoriety and acclaim among the men and women of this world. To many he is known as one of the most courageous opponents of the bloody war in Indo-China , to others he is known as a leader in the civil-rights movement, yet to others he is known as a popular writer and speaker, and to yet others he is an enterprising young politician who will someday hold political office.
It must come as something of a shock to many of these people to realize that over the last yen years the bulk of his time has been spent in a ministry whose chief work is preaching, baptizing, celebrating the Eucharist, teaching, counseling the troubled, comforting the sick and bereaved. These things are not highly praised among men, but in God's sight, and in the Church's sight, there is no higher or nobler work. I say this not out of some romantic notion of the Church, but out of an honest realism of what really counts.
The relation between a pastor and his people, and the relation between the people and their pastor, is always something of a mystery. It is quite unique among the ties that bind human beings together. Think for a moment about the different relations you have with other people. Take the relation between you and your boss or supervisor. Though a great deal depends on it, there are so many barriers that it can never be very deep. Or the school child to his or her teacher. One can grow very attached to a teacher, but there comes a time when you must part ways, ad there are moments in your life that can never be shared with a teacher. Even a doctor, even if he is a sensitive and human person, only touches your life at moments of crisis"sickness, accidents, death.
But the relation between pastor and people is of wholly different order. He is with you in times of sickness and death, but he is also with you after the birth of a new baby, at a baptism, at confirmation or at first communion or at your wedding. He has probably been in your home and knows members of your family. He may have sat with you for ours working through problems n your marriage or difficulties with a teenage son. He may have buried an aging mother or father.
By the same token you know your pastor in a way that you know few other people, especially after ten years. Somewhat facetiously I might say that it is a credit to the people of St. John's that you were willing to put up with the goings and comings of Fr. Richard for these ten years. But more seriously, to live and work together these years you have had to put up with things you may not have liked or understood. You have endured his faults and weaknesses. You have also sensed that Fr. Richard was also a human being with needs and desires"that he too needed to be loved, accepted, that he needed your friendship and fellowship. He too has his ups and downs, his times of grief and sadness, his moments of doubt and uncertainty. But out of these uniquely personal relations"he as pastor and you as congregation"together you have forged at this place vital and rewarding ministry of word and sacrament.
It is appropriate, I think, that the anniversary of Fr. Richard's installation should fall during the Easter season, just as it was appropriate that the installation itself should fall within two weeks of Easter. Easter is many things in the life of the Church. It is the great festival of victory and exultation, though Lent has always been kept rigorously by Lutherans, and St. John's is no exception. The long weeks of Lent with the readings from the Passion of Christ, the violet covers over crosses and sacred pictures, the somberness of the chancel, the praying of the stations on the cross, the haunting Lenten songs. Easter comes crashing in at the end of Lent with trumpets, shouts of joy, songs of jubilation, a mood of exaltation. But Easter is also the great festival of hope, of expectation, of anticipation, even of yearning.
And it is the dominant note of hope that, more than anything else, characterizes the ministry of Fr. Richard and St. John's. Hope amidst suffering, hope when men know only defeat and despair, hope when death seems to smother out the shoots of life springing from the hearts of men, hope for our society, our world, our city, our schools, courts, prisons, legislatures, hope for our children, for our elderly, hope for all the millions of men and women over the face of this globe who simply want to live out their lives as free human beings not trampled down and stepped on by the overlords of this world.
Over the years Fr. Richard has spoken about this hope in many different ways. At one time he spoke about the vision of Maujer Street"a vision of a life of genuine community between people in the midst of a great city; more recently he has spoken of the Kingdom of God, the hope for a future where God's rule would more fully permeate the lives and institutions of men on this earth. But whatever the language, it sprang from the conviction that the only genuine hope, the only hope really worth hoping for, the only hope worth believing, the only hope which was not an illusion, was a hope grounded in God, the God whom we Christians know through the life and the mighty victory of Jesus Christ over the power of death.
The things for which the people of St. John's have given themselves will change. Once this congregation was group of German immigrants living in what was then farmland across the river from New York City"that was over a hundred years ago"and the primary goal seemed simply to keep the struggling congregation from folding, at another time the chief task seemed racial integration, at another outreach into the community, at another service to the community and social action, at another learning to worship God in Spanish. And who knows what the future will bring. Whatever it is that claims the hearts and energies of future generations of people here, the new vision will spring from the same conviction, the same trust, the same confidence that the God who raised Jesus Christ is faithful and good.
Hope, confidence, trust"in the midst of a world where there seems so little reason for hope"these are the marks of Fr. Richard's ministry and the ministry of St. John's.
If you will permit me, I should like to close with a passage from a letter from Fr. Richard written in 1961. At the time he was serving as one of the Protestant Chaplains at Kings County Hospital to support himself during his first months at St. John's. He spent the day at the hospital and during breaks he wrote a lengthy twenty-one-page letter of his experiences at the hospital and at St. John's. The letter described some of the scenes in the hospital during the day and closed with his reflections on an unnamed baby who had just been born. He wrote,
I just saw "baby boy Washington" enter life with a cry. He does not yet know how much he will have to cry about. His mother is unmarried and does not want him. He will be turned over to the city for a life on not being wanted. This is true of more than one third of all the hundreds of babies delivered here. I don't think his prospects are very good for finding love, happiness, joy, purpose . . . . I am not depressed"only filled with wonder. Wonder at the glory and tragedy of life in this city. In a little while I will drive home and can count on being struck again by the New York skyline"a never failing object of adoration. The city and the potential of the civilization it represents"to this I am religiously committed. And the ways of the God who brought it into being. 'What is man, that you keep him in mind?' Little baby boy Washington"fear not, He has redeemed you. He has called you by the name you do not yet have, you are His! I cannot guarantee you that this is true. It may be a pious illusion. But it is better than what is called the truth by men, but just must be illusion. You are not alone.
He has redeemed you. He has called you by your name. Amen.

Richmond man pleads guilty to sexual misconduct with 15-year-old
RICHMOND, Ind. — A Richmond man who had been accused of having sex multiple times with a 15-year-old girl has been sentenced to six years with two suspended to probation after agreeing to a plea deal in the case.
Bryan Keith Atkins, 35, was arrested in January on a charge of sexual misconduct with a minor (a Level 4 felony).
The arrest came after an interview by Wayne County Sheriff's Office personnel during which Atkins admitted he had had sex with the teenager on multiple occasions, according to an affidavit of probable cause.
Officers began an investigation when the victim was interviewed at JACY House. She said she had been in a sexual relationship with Atkins from October to December, but she didn't want to tell anyone because she was scared they would get in trouble.
Atkins later told investigators the two indeed had been sexually active, but he said the victim initiated the acts. He was then arrested and taken to jail.
The Level 4 felony charge carries a standard six-year sentence with a range of two to 12 years as established by the Indiana legislature.
A plea agreement between Atkins and the Wayne County Prosecutor's Office called for him to be sentenced to six years with two of those suspended to probation. He also was given credit for 91 days of time served.
In 2011, Atkins was arrested and charged with misdemeanor voyeurism after he was seen peeping in a North 11th Street residence's windows. After pleading guilty, he was sentenced to 180 days in jail with 160 suspended to probation.

AS: Does Wes Anderson suggest a lot of references like books and movies?
AS: Yes, absolutely. For Grand Budapest he had a whole list of things that we watched and discussed together.
AS: Out of curiosity what were a few of those?
AS: The Shop Around The Corner, Bergman's The Silence, The Earrings of Madame de…, The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp.
AS: How about Spielberg?
AS: Yes, we had a few that we were watching for sure. The Spy Who Came in From the Cold was one that we were looking at quite a bit.
AS: How was Wes Craven different?
AS: I adore Wes Craven. He's really great to work with. We made two movies. My Soul to Take and Scream 4. He hired me for my first design job on My Soul to Take. The big difference with his movies is that you have to figure out how to deal with the blood!
AS: Special paint so that the blood comes off easily?
AS: Exactly. Which is fine when you're on a set. It's a little trickier when you're on location at somebody's house. But we got a system down. We had to add a certain amount of sheen to the paint on the walls and we had a clear film that we would put down on hardwood floors. It was like vehicle wrap that doesn't have anything printed on it and we'd cover the whole floor. Because the blood gets in the cracks!
AS: On Twelve Years a Slave was Steve McQueen as involved in the details as Wes Anderson?
AS: We didn't talk as much about a specific color, but we did talk just as much about the specifics of the details of the story. The research was pretty intense and we did our best to get it right. Solomon's is such an important story and the last thing in the world I wanted was to have to have some detail blow it. For instance I remember us discussing a whip that was used on Solomon, a cat o'nine tails. What is that exactly and why is it called that? And you start looking into the damage that this thing was designed to inflict on the human body. It's terribly upsetting. But it's important. It's not just a random whip. Steve wanted to find those real details.
So it was a process of digging and trying to find as many of these specific details as we could to bring them into the story. And that was a piece where, back to your earlier question, we wanted to be totally invisible because Steve wanted to be in the past. He wanted these plantations to NOT feel like Hollywood stage sets. He wanted to be on working farms in the 19th century. The great houses of these plantations are still standing but everything else is gone, so we rebuilt the farms in the back. And we'd build as much of it as fully as we could so that you could walk into all of those different buildings and they would be finished and dressed on the inside. There weren't jacks and big lights just off camera because the process of making the film was one of total intimacy for Steven and his wonderful DP Sean Bobbitt and the actors.

The Metropolis Case is the debut novel of American author Matthew Gallaway. The novel follows the interconnected lives of four characters living in different cities, all of whom have a great passion for Richard Wagner's opera Tristan und Isolde. The New York Times said "the book is so well written ... and filled with such memorable lead and supporting players that it quickly absorbs you into its worlds." In the Washington Post, Eugenia Zukerman wrote that "Gallaway has taken a great risk ... by creating an intricate, multilayered tale that slides from past to present, from Europe to New York, from opera to pop. But despite the complexity, The Metropolis Case engages the reader emotionally on every page."

Rather than a conventional narrative, the novel presents alternating chapters devoted to each of the four principal characters. Three of them are opera singers. One of the four lives in the nineteenth century. Two are much younger than the others. The author slowly reveals their shared relationship to Wagner's opera.

The novel's title and some other details allude to Janáček's opera The Makropulos Case.

Gallaway is a graduate of New York University Law School and a native of Pittsburgh, where the novel is partially set. He began the novel in 2001 and completed it in 2007. According to Gallaway, who blogged as The Gay Recluse from 2007 to 2009:

In 2010, when Crown Publishing Group published the novel, Gallaway was employed as a Senior Acquisitions Editor in the legal department of Oxford University Press.

Q: Ferrer's Graph Implementation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentagonal_number_theorem
Hello. I would like to implement the Ferrer's graphs in the Wikipedia article above into LaTex. I have tried using arrays with \bullet but I can't seem to get more than two in a row to look decent. Also, how would I color one bullet red?
Could someone provide me an example of how to do the first Ferrer's graph so I can better understand the LaTex code? Thank you!

A: Maybe this?  Here I introduce \ferrer[<red dots at end>]{<total dots>}, which are to be placed, in math mode, inside a \ferrerstack{} (with \cr delimiters).
I have made it centered about the math axis, but one could make it baseline aligned by eliminating the \vcenter{\hbox{}}:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{ifthen,xcolor,lipsum,amssymb}
\newcounter{fcount}
\newcommand\ferrer[2][0]{\noindent%
  \setcounter{fcount}{0}%
  \whiledo{\thefcount < #2}{%
    \stepcounter{fcount}%
    \ifnum\thefcount >\numexpr#2-#1\relax%
      \textcolor{red}{\LARGE$\bullet\mkern2mu$}\else
      \textcolor{gray}{\LARGE$\bullet\mkern2mu$}\fi
  }\hfill\mbox{}%

\newcommand\ferrerstack[1]{\vcenter{\hbox{\shortstack{#1}}}}

This potent and tasty juiced drink combines some of the most potent cancer fighters on the planet. Drink a couple of glasses a few times a week to help keep cancer at bay or drink several glasses every day to help fight and defeat your cancer.
1. Juice the above ingredients in a quality low-RPM juicer such as one the Omega Vert 350HD.
2. Add fresh ground black pepper, tumeric powder (if you cannot find tumeric root to juice) and Himalayan salt to taste after making the juice. Then, plop in a celery stalk and perhaps a couple of green olives and enjoy!
1. As a cancer preventive, enjoy a couple of glasses several times a week. As a cancer fighter and detoxer, drink 6 or more tall glasses per day for at least a week with no other food consumed and then continue drinking several glasses a day along with a healthy diet and other cancer-fighting supplements thereafter.
2. For a sweeter morning version, substitute apples for the tomatoes and also add ginger.

            },
            .
            .

                    "last_name": ""
                }
            },

I just want to exclude postedByPartner fields and keep first_name and last_name, without modifying the rest

Who can be a member?
Impact 100 NYC is open to women 18 and older. Memberships are renewed annually.
How does Impact 100 NYC work?
We aggregate individual donations of $1000 of at least 100 members to make one $100,000 grant to nonprofit organizations serving NYC's five boroughs. The more members, the more grants and the more the city benefits! Collective philanthropic giving creates a rare opportunity for individual donations to make a bigger impact and for nonprofit applicants to receive a transformative grant.
Is my contribution tax deductible?
Impact 100 NYC is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization and donations are tax-deductible, to the extent of the law, for the year in which the donation was made.
What is required of a Member?
Members choose their own level of involvement. Some members reap the benefit of knowing that 100% of their donation will be put to good use in the community. Others may want to volunteer – be it occasionally or frequently -- or enjoy an educational or self-improvement opportunity. We encourage all to participate in the grant review process in choosing the grant recipient finalists. Whatever the level of participation, all members have the opportunity to vote for the grant recipients, at THE BIG GIVE!
I would like to contribute more than $1,000. Do I get more than one vote?
Our founding principle is "one woman…one vote." We gratefully welcome donations larger than $1,000, which help offset operating expenses. At year end, should we receive more funds than needed to cover operating expenses, our board of directors may vote to use the surplus to increase grant funds. Alternatively, a contribution of more than $1,000 may also be directed to sponsor a Founders Fellowship, a scholarship program to help budding philanthropists get started on their giving journey.
Do you accept corporate matching?
Yes! Please email info@impact100nyc.org to discuss further.
My company or my spouse's company matches funds for charitable donations. Can I give $500 and have the company match it to make my total $1,000 donation?
Matching gifts are most certainly welcome but may not be used to fund a membership donation. Matching gift funds are generally used to cover operating costs and/or a Founders Fellowship. To find out if your (or your spouse's) company offers matching funds click here.
Can I be a part of Impact 100 NYC without making a full $1,000 contribution?
Yes! We welcome individuals and businesses to become a Friend of Impact 100 NYC. Friends play a valuable role in furthering our mission by critically helping offset operating and administrative expenses. These donations ensure our ability to assess nonprofit applications, award and monitor large grants, and raise awareness to grow membership. Although these donations do not provide voting rights to the contributor, these funds are vital to helping the organization make even more of an impact!
What is a Founders Fellowship?
A Founders Fellowship is a gift of membership, covering a portion of the $1,000 membership fee for someone wanting to engage in charitable giving and collective philanthropy yet may not have the fiscal means to do so. Through generous gift donations, the Founders Fellowship aims to make Impact 100 NYC a more diverse and inclusive group of women, reflecting the melting pot of NYC itself.
There is a membership option for $1,100. What does the additional $100 for operating costs cover?
Although we are an all-volunteer organization and do not have paid staff, operating a nonprofit – or any organization -- requires technology, website maintenance, software, payment processing, printing, supplies, insurance, marketing, recruiting and an Independent Accounting Review.
Can I join more than one committee?
Yes! Impact 100 NYC is an all-volunteer organization, operated by its members with many talents and types of experience and expertise. All members are encouraged (but not required) to serve on one – or more! – committees. Committees and activities include:
Grant Review Committees
Membership Recruitment and Retention
Member Education, Activities and Events
Community Service and Nonprofit Outreach
Technology Services and Support
How long is my membership in Impact 100 NYC?
Our annual membership year runs from July through June. Each $1,000 donation provides membership for one year, including eligibility to select shortlist and finalist nonprofits and vote for the winning grant recipient(s) announced at THE BIG GIVE in May. Membership is renewable beginning in July of each year.
What types of projects or programs do you prefer to fund?
Each year we open grant applications to NYC-based non-profits working on behalf of New Yorkers and our communities across the five boroughs. Among the key criteria is that the grant supports innovative work and makes a transformational impact. Grants may fund work that ranges in focus and service areas and may either be new projects or expand existing programs or capital projects.
As a collaborative grant-making organization, our members decide through a rigorous grant review process and all-member vote. As we have a diverse group of women who make up our voting membership, each brings her own experience and perspective. With one member/one vote, everyone has an equal say in the selection of the grant recipients.
Essentially, we aim to select organizations that, if empowered with our funding, would take a huge step forward in advancing their mission and dramatically help their beneficiaries overcome adversity and thrive.
Must an organization serve only women to qualify for funding from Impact 100 NYC?
Although Impact 100 NYC is an all-women's organization, grant applications are open to any 501(c)(3) organization that meets our funding criteria.
Will more consideration be given to programs that affect more than one borough?
Impact 100 NYC members are advised to look at the impact of a proposal through a lens of transformation, this includes both breadth and depth. There is no policy that automatically confers an advantage to applicants with programs that affect more than one borough.
Are there any grants awarded for less than $100,000?
Our grant model is based on the total number of members in our organization each membership year. For every 100 members, each having donated $1,000, we will award a $100,000 Transformation Grant. Residual funds may be awarded to the finalists as determined by the Board.
How does Impact 100 NYC decide who gets the grants?
The process starts with Letters of Inquiry to nonprofits, followed by Impact 100 NYC issuing Requests for Proposals (RFPs), inviting nonprofits to participate. Members join Grand Review Committees to evaluate the proposals, select a short-list of nonprofits to conduct site visits. Each Grant Review Committee selects one finalist. Those finalists are then voted on by the entire membership to select the nonprofit to receive the $100,000 grant. In years where the funds for grants exceed $100,000, additional grants are bestowed to the runners-up. Should the funds exceed $200,000, the organization will select and bestow two grants of $100,000 each.
Committee members attend training sessions on the grant process and learn how to evaluate grant proposals, such as determining credibility and merit of the applicant organization and the feasibility and significance of the proposed project or program.
After each committee selects its finalist, all Impact 100 NYC members receive information on the finalists for review. The finalists attend our Annual Meeting (The Big Give) in May and make presentations about their projects. Members vote by individual ballot either prior to or at the Annual Meeting (or by absentee ballot if they are unable to attend), and that vote determines the grant recipients. Grant awards are announced at the Annual Meeting.
Can an organization get a list of the members of Impact 100 NYC?
The roster of members is shared only with current members and not published or shared publicly. We do list our Board Member and Executive Committee on our website and spotlight members on social media. At no time should members be approached for solicitation purposes.
Impact 100 NYC

(2) the entity from presenting or causing a claim to be presented to Medicare (or billing another individual, entity, or third party payor) for those referred services.
The SRDP requires health care providers or suppliers to submit all information necessary for CMS to analyze the actual or potential violation. In return, CMS can reduce the amount due and owing for violations. The SRDP is intended to facilitate the resolution of only matters that, in the disclosing party's reasonable assessment, are actual or potential violations of the physician self-referral law.
Medicare Fraud Statute (42 U.S.C. § 1320a-7b(a)(3): A person or entity commits a felony where "having knowledge of the occurrence of any event affecting his initial or continued right to any such benefit or payment, or the initial or continued right to any such benefit or payment of any other individual in whose behalf he has applied for or is receiving such benefit or payment," the person (or entity) conceals or "fail[s] to disclose" the information with an "intent fraudulently to secure" excessive or unauthorized payment.
False Statements Relating to Health Care Matters (18 U.S.C. § 1035) and False Statements as to Matters under Federal Jurisdiction (18 U.S.C. § 1001) make it a crime to knowingly and willfully falsify, conceal or cover up, by any trick, device or scheme, any material fact in a health care matter.
The Fraud Enforcement and Recovery Act (FERA, 31 U.S.C. § 3729) makes it illegal to "knowingly conceal . . . or knowingly and improperly avoid . . . or cause . . . an obligation to pay or transmit money or property to the Government. This is also known as the "reverse false claim" action.
CMS revised the SRDP in May 2011 and clarified the information that should be disclosed. The SRDP now requires that the disclosing parties provide the total amount of remuneration a physician or physicians received due to the actual or potential violation (and during the appropriate "look back" period).
CMS submitted its report to Congress on the implementation of the SRDP, a copy of which can be viewed here. SRDP settlements can be viewed here.
Hospitals who wish to voluntarily disclose self-discovered evidence of potential fraud to the Office of the Inspector General may do so under the Provider Self-Disclosure Protocol (SDP) (63 Fed. Reg. 58,399).

Der Guindy-Nationalpark (, ) ist ein Nationalpark mit einer Fläche von 2,8 km² in Chennai, der Hauptstadt des indischen Bundesstaates Tamil Nadu. Er ist der achtkleinste Nationalpark Indiens und ist einer der wenigen Nationalparks, der sich innerhalb einer Stadt befinden. Im Jahr 1977 wurde er offiziell eröffnet.

Geschichte
Der Guindy-Nationalpark war ursprünglich ein Wildgehege an der Koromandelküste. Mit einer Fläche von 5 km² gehörte es zu den letzten Resten des tropischen Trockenwaldes. Im Jahr 1821 kaufte der Brite Gilbert Rodericks das Gelände für damals 35 000 Indische Rupien und nutzte es als Jagdgebiet. Seit dem Jahr 1945 leben auch Axishirsche im Guindy-Nationalpark, und seit 1958 gehört es zum Tamil Nadu Forstamt. Im Jahr 1978 wurde der Park zum Nationalpark ernannt. In den 1980er Jahren wurde das ganze Gelände von dem Indian Institute of Technology Madras ummauert.

Flora
Die Flora des Parks besteht aus einem Dornenwald, einem trockenen immergrünen Macchia, Wiesen und Gewässer. Insgesamt gibt es über 350 Arten von Pflanzen, unter anderem Stauden, Kletterpflanzen, Gräser und verschiedene Kräuter. Außerdem gibt es mehr als 24 Arten von Bäumen, darunter der Niembaum und der indische Holzapfel. Diese Flora bietet einen idealen Lebensraum für die über 150 Vogelarten, welche im Guidy Nationalpark leben. Für den Lebensraum der Hirschziegenantilope wurde extra knapp ein Sechstel des Parks als offenes Grasland gelassen.

Fauna
Im Guindy-Nationalpark leben über 14 Arten von Säugetieren. Dazu gehören unter anderem die Hirschziegenantilope, Axishirsch, Schakale, indische Zibetkatze, indischer Hutaffe, Hyänen, Schuppentier, Stacheligel, Mangusten  und das drei-gestreifte Palmenhörnchen.

Die gefährdete Hirschziegenantilope gilt als besonders gefährdet, da  seit 1924 ein ständiger Bevölkerungsrückgang im Guindy-Nationalpark zu beobachten ist. Im Februar 2004 wurden alle Tiere gezählt und festgestellt, dass nur noch 405 Hirschziegenantilopen im Park leben. Die Anzahl der Axishirsche hingegen ist seit der Einführung in das Gebiet ständig gestiegen. Momentan leben davon mehr als 2650 im Guidy Nationalpark(stand Februar 2004).

Im Park leben außerdem über 150 Vogelarten, darunter Rebhuhn, Rotlappenkiebitz, Gelblappenkiebitz, Würger, Orangespecht, Adler, Schwarzmilan, Gleitaar, Asiatischer Paradiesschnäpper, Wachtel, Papageien, Bronzemännchen, Triele, Wanderdrossel und Drongos.

Es gibt auch viele Arten von Reptilien und Amphibien wie zum Beispiel Schildkröten, vor allem die bedrohte indische Sternschildkröte. Aber auch Eidechsen, Geckos, Chamäleons und der indische Waran leben im Guindy-Nationalpark. Der Guindy Schlangenpark (auch Chennai Schlagenpark genannt) ist ein Teil des Guindy-Nationalparks. Seit 2010 leben dort unter anderem sieben Krokodilarten und 23 verschiedene Schlangenarten, darunter auch die Königskobra.
Zudem gibt es auch eine Vielzahl von Insekten darunter 60 Arten von Spinnen und 60 Schmetterlingen.

Guindy Kinderpark
Im Guindy Kinderpark lassen sich z. B. Hirsche und viele Vogelarten beobachten. Für die Kinder wird an Wochenenden Elefantenreiten und Ponyreiten angeboten. Ein Spielplatz mit Rutschen und Schaukeln ist ebenfalls vorhanden.

Q: Auto Open Excel 2010 file, save and convert to Excel 2003 format I need direct import excel to SQL.
However, the SQL version I am using only support Excel 2013 while the user excel is a 2010 shared workbook.
I am thinking if it is possible to setup a Excel 2010 and use formula to link the cell value from the 2010 shared workbook and then save to Excel 2003 format.
I want to do the above autmatically. Can Excel Marco do so?
I don't know much on excel marco. How can I do so?
Could someone help me?
Ivan

A: The answer to your question is yes. You can try below:
Sub Test()
    Dim filename
    Dim wb As Workbook

    filename = Application.GetOpenFilename("Excel Files,*.xlsx")

    On Error Resume Next
    Set wb = Workbooks.Open(filename)
    If wb Is Nothing Then MsgBox "Please select an Excel File": Exit Sub
    On Error GoTo 0

    wb.SaveAs Replace(wb.FullName, ".xlsx", ".xls"), 56 '~~> xlExcel8
    wb.Close
End Sub

Above code opens an Excel 2010 file then saves it in xls (2003) format and close it. HTH.

Alberta CBSA report for February and March
May 22, 2016 by Matthew Watt
Gun possession, pornography, and drug charges make American travellers criminally inadmissible to Canada
APRIL 2016 – Every month in 2015, southern Alberta border agents processed an average of 95,421 travellers in 38,679 automobiles and 10,755 commercial trucks, according to official statistics from Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA). But not all of these individuals make it across the border from the States, as several are found criminally inadmissible for various reasons. CBSA has publicly released information about selected cases of travellers being found inadmissible to Canada over the past two months.
At the border crossing in Coutts since February, a number of gun-related incidents have resulted in multiple charges and the seizure of weapons from various American travellers. On February 2, border officers at Coutts seized one prohibited .32-calibre handgun from 43 year-old Brandon Pryor of Utah. Pryor was charged under the Customs Act for failing to answer truthfully after the officers seized his weapon. Pryor pleaded guilty on March 16 and received a $1,500 fine and a forfeiture order for the confiscated weapons.
Nearly four weeks later, Coutts border officers confiscated one prohibited .380-calibre pistol and 24 prohibited magazines from an American motorist, 47 year-old Michael Bissonette of Georgia, on February 29. He now faces five charges under the Criminal Code and eight under the Customs Act — a total of 13 offences, for which he is scheduled to go to trial on April 20.
On March 19, Coutts border agents apprehended a Florida resident bound for Alaska after finding two items in his truck: one undeclared .25-calibre handgun stashed in a backpack in the back seat and a magazine concealed under a floor mat. Although the driver was arrested, he co-operated by paying a $1,000 fine for not declaring the gun and was subsequently allowed to cross the border without the weapon in question.
CBSA officers also prevented convicted criminals and other inadmissible individuals from crossing the border to Canada throughout the month of March. On March 1, at the border crossing in Wild Horse, border authorities deemed an American man inadmissible to Canada for seeking employment in the country without a work permit, and for having three previous convictions for child pornography possession on his record. He later attempted to cross the border a second time via Aden but was refused again.
On March 19 at the border crossing in Carway, a foreign national seeking a work permit received an exclusion order because he was discovered to have already been working unauthorized on Canadian soil. He is not permitted to return to Canada for a full year.
Drug charges also kept travellers out of Canada. On March 27, Carway border agents denied entry to an American woman who had been convicted of conspiracy to distribute heroin.
Throughout March, CBSA officers stationed at Coutts found a total of 48 foreign nationals inadmissible to Canada for a variety of reasons, including criminal convictions on their record. They issued a total of 88 work permits and allowed entry to 725 immigrants. During the same month, Carway border officers deemed only seven foreign nationals inadmissible to the country, while issuing 33 work permits and allowing entry to 384 immigrants. You may read more about the frequent causes of criminal inadmissibility to Canada here on our website.
