The JISC Managing Research Data (JISCMRD) Components of Institutional Research Data Services workshop policy session explored these issues with presentations from four institutions outlining the progress that they have made to date and the challenges that they have had to grapple with along the way.
Tom Parsons discussed the University of Nottingham's ADMIRe project, which aims to develop policy and infrastructure supporting RDM across all disciplines using a top-down, bottom-up approach to implementation.
One problem the project is dealing with at the moment that is no doubt common amongst HE institutions is that of policy harmonisation. Nottingham now has an institutional RDM policy but also has a Research Ethics and Conduct policy that covers elements of RDM and an EPSRC roadmap strategy. These all serve slightly different purposes and conflict with each other and with external policies produced by the funding councils. When looking at ways of resolving these conflicts an interesting point was raised: is it always better to produce yet another new policy or could existing policies that enjoy traction and authority be used as vehicles for RDM policy?
The consensus was RDM is important enough to warrant its own policy rather than being buried somewhere that may not be completely appropriate and gives the opportunity to overwrite older, obsolete policies.
Cathy Pink, from the University of Bath's Research 360 project, discussed the process of adapting Monash University's RDM strategy plan to produce a roadmap document that satisfied the EPSRC's requirements. This highlighted one problem that many people are experiencing, the sheer time that it takes to produce a good, sustainable strategy. Quite apart from the considerable effort required to adapt an existing policy to an institution whose context and aspirations are different, the level of consultation and advocacy required to engage with both senior management and academics is quite high and can really slow down progress. However, if the aim is to produce a robust policy that can be properly applied and adhered to, that consultation is vital. At Bath, having the close involvement of the PVC research at every stage of the development process was seen as key to producing a plan with realistic goals that could be backed by senior management.
Will funders move the goalposts and produce more requirements that will need to be accommodated?
How realistic are the risks of audit to an institution?
How will RDM costs be funded, what can be built into grant applications and how should that be done?
This was an area where the DCC would be well-placed to play a central role, using its position to help clarify policy decisions and relaying information to funders about how policy is affecting RDM at a grassroots level.
Birgit Plietzsch, from the University of St. Andrews, gave us a run-down of their institutional engagement, which included the development of a grant portfolio picture, the enhancement of internal staff skills and benchmarking exercises using DCC DAF and CARDIO tools.
One goal that St Andrews had hoped to achieve during the engagement was the development of an RDM policy. This was hampered by the difficulty in accurately predicting the costs of the RDM services that would need to be developed in support of a ratified policy. Vague liabilities are undoubtedly a widespread problem, even amongst those institutions with relatively mature polices. Policy developers know, for example, that some managed storage for research data will need to be provided, some even stipulate amounts, but there remains only vague understanding of the associated cost of provision.
Stuart Lewis, head of the University of Edinburgh's digital library services, discussed the work that has gone into driving the University's landmark policy towards implementation. The Edinburgh policy has been in existence for long enough that academic staff are beginning to look for progress updates and asking when they can expect infrastructure updates to be complete. He felt that this is where the production of a roadmap, ostensibly to meet EPSRC requirements, has been useful, providing a framework for development linked to policy that can be made available to staff.
The importance of senior academic involvement at all stages of policy development was highlighted again; Edinburgh has representation from all three of its colleges on the policy steering committee and their involvement is seen as crucial to ensure maximum engagement from research staff.
Implementation of the Edinburgh policy is being progressed by the Implementation Committee's Action Group, whose membership is made up exclusively of people who 'do stuff' and can concentrate on the practical aspects of policy realisation. This is being progressed through a series of pilot studies of which there have been four to date; using the DCC's DMPonline tool, working with the Datashare repository, examining active infrastructure and how storage is accessed, and developing training for liaison librarians.
One very hearting report to come back from the Edinburgh experience is that there is a strong appetite amongst Information Services staff for RDM training, evidenced by the speed with which the University's MANTRA course became oversubscribed.
It became clear during the following discussion session that one of the main issues exercising participants is how to accurately bring costs into policy and strategy documents. Lindsay Wood, from the University of Newcastle's Iridium project, asked whether there was any institution that had bucked the trend, starting with a business case and using that as the basis for policy development. Wendy White, of the Datapool project, told us about the University of Southampton, which has taken that approach and is fairly unique in having adopted a ten-year business plan for RDM. Wendy said that, while it is very useful to have figures on the table when discussing RDM with senior management, they are now being asked to put the figures into context and provide a narrative to demonstrate why proposed services are necessary for research.
Another talking point was whether to explicitly write unfunded research into RDM policy. It seems that a general lack of information about the value of such research to institutions is causing it to be dealt with fairly vaguely with only one institution explicitly referring to unfunded research in policy.

Jacob Riis Tours NewYork City's Fourth Ward
Jacob Riis—a journalist and photographer of industrial America and himself a Danish immigrant—exposed the deplorable conditions of late nineteenth-century urban life in his widely-read book, How the Other Half Lives, published in 1890. He also presented slide shows to reform-minded, middle-class audiences. Despite his own immigrant background, Riis' attitudes mirrored the prejudices of the dominant culture toward "foreigners," as revealed in this stereotyped description of an immigrant neighborhood on New York's Lower East Side. Riis' reports on immigrant life—and his equally famous photographs—were important documents of urban conditions in late nineteenth-century urban America. But they were equally revealing as documents that showed how outsiders often reacted in horror to the lives of "the other half."
When once I asked the agent of a notorious Fourth Ward alley how many people might be living in it I was told: One hundred and forty families, one hundred Irish, thirty-eight Italian, and two that spoke the German tongue. Barring the agent herself, there was not a native-born individual in the court. The answer was characteristic of the cosmopolitan character of lower New York, very nearly so of the whole of it, wherever it runs to alleys and courts. One may find for the asking an Italian, a German, a French, African, Spanish, Bohemian, Russian, Scandinavian, Jewish, and Chinese colony. Even the Arab, who peddles " holy earth" from the Battery as a direct importation from Jerusalem, has his exclusive preserves at the lower end of Washington Street. The one thing you shall vainly ask for in the chief city of America is a distinctively American community. There is none; certainly not among the tenements. Where have they gone to, the old inhabitants ? I put the question to one who might fairly be presumed to be of the number, since I had found him sighing for the "good old days" when the legend "no Irish need apply" was familiar in the advertising columns of the newspapers. He looked at me with a puzzled air. "I don't know," he said. "I wish I did. Some went to California in '49, some to the war and never came back. The rest, I expect, have gone to heaven, or somewhere. I don't see them 'round here."
Whatever the merit of the good man's conjectures, his eyes did not deceive him. They are not here. In their place has come this queer conglomerate mass of heterogeneous elements, ever striving and working like whiskey and water in one glass, and with the like result: final union and a prevailing taint of whiskey. The once unwelcome Irishman has been followed in his turn by the Italian, the Russian Jew, and the Chinaman, and has himself taken a hand at opposition, quite as bitter and quite as ineffectual, against these later hordes. Wherever these have gone they have crowded him out, possessing the block, the street, the ward with their denser swarms. But the Irishman's revenge is complete. Victorious in defeat over his recent as over his more ancient foe, the one who opposed his coming no less than the one who drove him out, he dictates to both their politics, and, secure in possession of the offices, returns the native his greeting with interest, while collecting the rents of the Italian whose house he has bought with the profits of his saloon. As a landlord he is picturesquely autocratic. An amusing instance of his methods came under my notice while writing these lines. An inspector of the Health Department found an Italian family paying a man with a Celtic name twenty-five dollars a month for three small rooms in a ramshackle rear tenement—more than twice what they were worth—and expressed his astonishment to the tenant, an ignorant Sicilian laborer. He replied that he had once asked the landlord to reduce the rent, but he would not do it.
"Well! What did he say?" asked the inspector.
"'Damma, man!' he said; 'if you speaka thata way to me, I fira you and your things in the streeta.' "And the frightened Italian paid the rent.
In justice to the Irish landlord it must be said that like an apt pupil he was merely showing forth the result of the schooling he had received, re-enacting, in his own way, the scheme of the tenements. It is only his frankness that shocks. The Irishman does not naturally take kindly to tenement life, though with characteristic versatility he adapts himself to its conditions at once. It does violence, nevertheless, to the best that is in him, and for that very reason of all who come within its sphere soonest corrupts him. The result is a sediment, the product of more than a generation in the city's slums, that, as distinguished from the larger body of his class, justly ranks at the foot of tenement dwellers, the so-called "low Irish."
It is not to be assumed, of course, that the whole body of the population living in the tenements, of which New Yorkers are in the habit of speaking vaguely as "the poor," or even the larger part of it, is to be classed as vicious or as poor in the sense of verging on beggary.
New York's wage-earners have no other place to live, more is the pity. They are truly poor for having no better homes; waxing poorer in purse as the exorbitant rents to which they are tied, as ever was serf to soil, keep rising. The wonder is that they are not all corrupted, and speedily, by their surroundings. If, on the contrary, there be a steady working up, if not out of the slough, the fact is a powerful argument for the optimist's belief that the world is, after all, growing better, not worse, and would go far toward disarming apprehension, were it not for the steadier growth of the sediment of the slums and its constant menace. Such an impulse toward better things there certainly is. The German rag-picker of thirty years ago, quite as low in the scale as his Italian successor, is the thrifty tradesman or prosperous farmer of to-day. (The Sheriff Street Colony of rag-pickers, long since gone, is an instance in point. The thrifty Germans saved up money during years of hard work in squalor and apparently wretched poverty to buy a township in a Western State, and the whole colony moved out there in a body. There need be no doubt about their thriving there.)
The Italian scavenger of our time is fast graduating exclusive control of the corner fruit-stands, while his black-eyed boy monopolizes the boot-blacking industry in which a few years ago he was an intruder. The Irish hod-carrier in the second generation has become a bricklayer, if not the Alderman of his ward, while the Chinese coolie is in almost exclusive possession of the laundry business. The reason is obvious. The poorest immigrant comes here with the purpose and ambition to better himself and, given half a chance might be reasonably expected to make the most of it. To the false plea that he prefers the squalid homes in which his kind are housed there could be no better answer. The truth is, his half chance has too long been wanting, and for the bad result he has been unjustly blamed.
As emigration from east to west follows the latitude, so does the foreign influx in New York distribute itself along certain well-defined lines that waver and break only under the stronger pressure of a more gregarious race or the encroachments of inexorable business. A feeling of dependence upon mutual effort, natural to strangers in a strange land unacquainted with its language and customs, sufficiently accounts for this.
The Irishman is the true cosmopolitan immigrant. All-pervading, he shares his lodging with perfect impartiality with the Italian, the Greek, and the "Dutchman," yielding only to sheer force of numbers, and objects equally to them all. A map of the city, colored to designate nationalities, would show more stripes than on the skin of a zebra, and more colors than any rainbow. The city on such a map would fall into two great halves, green for the Irish prevailing in the West Side tenement districts, and blue for the Germans on the East Side. But intermingled with these ground colors would be an odd variety of tints that would give the whole the appearance of an extraordinary crazy quilt. From down in the Sixth Ward, upon the site of the old Collect Pond that in the days of the fathers drained the hills which are no more, the red of the Italian would be seen forcing its way northward along the line of Mulberry Street to the quarter of the French purple on Bleecker Street and South Fifth Avenue, to lose itself and reappear, after a lapse of miles, in the "Little Italy" of Harlem, east of Second Avenue. Dashes of red, sharply defined, would be seen strung through the Annexed District, northward to the city line. On the West Side the red would be seen overrunning the old Africa of Thompson Street, pushing the black of the negro rapidly uptown, against querulous but unavailing protests, occupying his home, his church, his trade and all, with merciless impartiality. There is a church in Mulberry Street that has stood for two generations as a sort of milestone of these migrations. Built originally for the worship of staid New Yorkers of the "old stock," it was engulfed by the colored tide, when the draft-riots drove the negroes out of reach of Cherry Street and the Five Points. Within the past decade the advance wave of the Italian onset reached it, and today the arms of United Italy adorn its front. The negroes have made a stand at several points along Seventh and Eighth Avenues; but their main body, still pursued by the Italian foe, is on the march yet, and the black mark will be found overshadowing to-day many blocks on the East Side, with One Hundredth Street as the centre, where colonies of them have settled recently.
Hardly less aggressive than the Italian, the Russian and Polish Jew, having overrun the district between Rivington and Division Streets, east of the Bowery, to the point of suffocation, is filling the tenements of the old Seventh Ward to the river front, and disputing with the Italian every foot of available space in the back alleys of Mulberry Street. The two races, differing hopelessly in much, have this in common: they carry their slums with them wherever they go, if allowed to do it. Little Italy already rivals its parent, the "Bend," in foulness. Other nationalities that begin at the bottom make a fresh start when crowded up the ladder. Happily both are manageable, the one by rabbinical, the other by the civil law. Between the dull gray of the Jew, his favorite color, and the Italian red, would be seen squeezed in on the map a sharp streak of yellow, marking the narrow boundaries of Chinatown. Dovetailed in with the German population, the poor but thrifty Bohemian might be picked out by the sombre hue of his life as of his philosophy, struggling against heavy odds in the big human bee-hives of the East Side. Colonies of his people extend northward, with long lapses of space, from below the Cooper Institute more than three miles. The Bohemian is the only foreigner with any considerable representation in the city who counts no wealthy man of his race, none who has not to work hard for a living, or has got beyond the reach of the tenement.
Down near the Battery the West Side emerald would be soiled by a dirty stain, spreading rapidly like a splash of ink on a sheet of blotting paper, headquarters of the Arab tribe, that in a single year has swelled from the original dozen to twelve hundred, intent, every mother's son, on trade and barter. Dots and dashes of color here and there would show where the Finnish sailors worship their djumala (God), the Greek pedlars the ancient name of their race, and the Swiss the goddess of thrift. And so on to the end of the long register, all toiling together in the galling fetters of the tenement. Were the question raised who makes the most of life thus mortgaged, who resists most stubbornly its levelling tendency—knows how to drag even the barracks upward a part of the way at least toward the ideal plane of the home—the palm must be unhesitatingly awarded the Teuton. The Italian and the poor Jew rise only by compulsion. The Chinaman does not rise at all; here, as at home, he simply remains stationary. The Irishman's genius runs to public affairs rather than domestic life; wherever he is mustered in force the saloon is the gorgeous centre of political activity. The German struggles vainly to learn his trick; his Teutonic wit is too heavy, and the political ladder he raises from his saloon usually too short or too clumsy to reach the desired goal. The best part of his life is lived at home, and he makes himself a home independent of the surroundings, giving the lie to the saying, unhappily become a maxim of social truth, that pauperism and drunkenness naturally grow in the tenements. He makes the most of his tenement, and it should be added that whenever and as soon as he can save up money enough, he gets out and never crosses the threshold of one again.

A multistory sanctuary rises in the center of Boston
In downtown Boston, a WeWork space offers creative energy and sweeping views
By Debra Kamin October 7, 2021
Every WeWork space is intentionally designed to promote inspiration and collaboration. Designed to Inspire delves into the architectural and artistic elements of these spectacular buildings.
Boston is a city of firsts. The City on a Hill has been a hub of innovation for nearly 400 years, giving birth to the nation's first public parks, schools, and even mass-transit system. And nowhere is the city's innovative spirit more palpable than in its vibrant downtown, where centuries of American history serve as the bedrock upon which great American landmarks—from the brutalist concrete Boston City Hall to the iconic Fenway Park stadium—have been built.
It's right here in the very nerve center of downtown Boston, in the heart of the city's financial district, that WeWork has a location at 33 Arch Street. A bright and beautiful space filled with colorful lounges, sleek private offices, and light-filled meeting rooms designed for collaboration, WeWork 33 Arch Street is an urban oasis that draws inspiration from the dynamic city beyond its walls while also offering respite and quiet focus for those within.
In Boston, all roads lead to Arch Street: The 33-story granite and glass tower, with its distinctive wing-shaped design, sits just steps from dozens of train, bus, and light rail lines, as well as minutes from I-93 and Rowes Wharf.
"What I love about 33 Arch Street is the location," says Julia Rigo, the building's community manager. "It's in the heart of downtown Boston, with easy access to great stores, restaurants, parks, and cafés. Tatte Bakery is my favorite spot in the area."
WeWork's footprint sits in the center of the tower, filling nearly 180,000 square feet across the 15th through 19th floors. The result is a workspace as boundless in opportunities as the metropolis in which it is located: Full-floor offices, private workspaces, and dedicated desks alike all come with stunning city views, wellness rooms, and private conference rooms. It creates an ideal site in which to hunker down and get productive, and then exit to the playground of city life when it's time for a break.
A neighborhood rich in culture
New England's banking and finance sectors were born in Boston's financial district, an area with a rich pecuniary history that dates back to the very beginning of American enterprise. The streets of the financial district may have brought fortune to those who walked them, but they were never actually paved in gold. Today, however, they are filled with another treasure: the best culinary and cultural offerings Boston has to offer, all clustered together.
What I love about 33 Arch Street is the location. It's in the heart of downtown Boston, with easy access to great stores, restaurants, parks, and cafés.
Julia Rigo, community manager
Visitors to the district will find themselves all but stumbling over landmarks such as the legendary Orpheum Theater, one of the oldest performance spaces in the U.S.; the vintage, French-inspired culinary gem Marliave; and the striking Art Deco tower of the John W. McCormack Post Office and Courthouse, a steadfast model of sustainability and endurance. Inside WeWork 33 Arch Street, the design pays homage to this urban bounty: Lowbrow materials mix with highbrow, cutting-edge design, creating an interplay of colors, cultures, and concepts that acts as a microcosm of the city itself.
An emphasis on sustainability
Thirty-three Arch Street was completed in 2004 and was registered with the U.S. Green Building Council, a nonprofit committed to developing healthier and more resilient communities by transforming the way we build. It was awarded LEED GOLD certification, thanks to its high energy and resource efficiencies. The building is also the beneficiary of the prestigious BOMA 360 Performance designation for mastering industry best practices across six distinct areas of building management and operations.
But while the structure is gentle on the environment, it's also wired for the future. Connectivity is the name of the game for all tenants of the building, and the skyscraper's fast WiFi has earned a Wired Certified Platinum Property designation for its best-in-class internet infrastructure and superior internet connectivity.
A WeWork space with a neighborhood vibe, inside and out
A modern workspace amid Gothic cathedrals
Integrating Singapore's cultural fabric into a new WeWork
A place for everyone
WeWork 33 Arch Street was designed with inclusivity in mind. Wood and concrete floors create a clean canvas, and blue and red upholstered banquettes with integrated planters bring pops of bright primary color. Public areas are vibrant and welcoming, and quieter focus areas are more softly illuminated. Custom artwork, hand-sourced from local artists and graphic designers, offer playful touches on an otherwise sleek, geometric-focused palette.
The most striking artwork of all, however, sits just outside the sweeping full-length windows along every floor: an unbeatable view of the beautiful Boston skyline. "Members especially love the view from conference room 17A [on the 17th floor]," says Rigo. "And the community bar on the 17th floor also has amazing views."
Pantries are lined with warm, rust-colored tile and finished with white oak and black-and-white terrazzo, and the bright red wireframe trellis of the community desk, as well as its mint base and gray solid surface, creates a visual break that encourages a physical and mental one as well.
Even though the property is spread across five floors, connection is key and is expressed through an interconnecting staircase with a catwalk of glass and oak, as well as glass blocks and rattan screens at every nook. This helps carve out private space for focus while never fully cloistering its occupants away. As with every WeWork, community is the heart of the workspace, in much the same way that WeWork 33 Arch Street has become the heart of its neighborhood.

Tony Meilhon, né le  à Nantes, est un criminel multirécidiviste français. Il a en 2019 passé plus de  en prison, soit plus de la moitié de sa vie.

En première instance, le , il est reconnu coupable du meurtre commis en janvier 2011 sur Laëtitia Perrais, , serveuse dans un hôtel de La Bernerie-en-Retz. Pour ces faits, il est condamné par la cour d'assises de Loire-Atlantique à la réclusion criminelle à perpétuité, assortie d'une période de sûreté de vingt-deux ans, ainsi que d'une demande de rétention de sûreté s'il était jugé dangereux après avoir purgé sa peine.

Tony Meilhon interjette appel et, au terme d'un nouveau procès qui se tient du 13 au  à la cour d'appel de Rennes, est condamné à la réclusion criminelle à perpétuité, assortie d'une peine de sûreté de vingt-deux ans, sans mesure de rétention de sûreté.

Biographie
La mère de Tony Meilhon est violée à l'âge de quinze ans par son propre père : de ce viol est né un garçon, le demi-frère aîné de Tony. Elle se marie avec Jacques Meilhon dont elle a trois enfants : un garçon, une fille et Tony. Le mari reconnaît l'enfant qui était né de l'inceste. Lorsque Tony Meilhon est âgé de , ses parents se séparent, sa mère fuyant un mari alcoolique et violent qui, selon ses dires, la  à avoir des enfants .

Cinq ans plus tard sa mère se remet en couple. Tony ne s'entend pas avec son beau-père qui le bat, est rejeté par sa mère, et idéalise son père. Il redouble, puis est placé en foyer, à , par l'aide sociale à l'enfance. Il le vit comme un abandon, et fugue régulièrement.

Lors du procès en premier instance pour le meurtre de Laëtitia Perrais, le psychiatre Bruno Millet décrit la jeunesse de Tony Meilhon comme marquée par son  à se  Le jeune homme pratique l'école buissonnière, la délinquance, consomme précocement de l'alcool, du haschich et de la cocaïne. Impulsif, intolérant à la frustration, il multiplie les délits et est arrêté plusieurs fois, à partir de ce moment-là, pour des braquages, des cambriolages et du trafic de stupéfiants. Il est incarcéré pour la première fois à .

Par la suite, il fait l'objet d'une quinzaine de condamnations  et violences, passant quatorze années en prison entre octobre 1996 et février 2010.

Parcours criminel
En , il est incarcéré pour la première fois de sa vie pour vol de voiture, alors qu'il n'a que . Il viole un de ses co-détenus pendant sa détention. Il écopera de deux ans de prison avec sursis.

En , il est condamné à trois ans de prison ferme (ses deux ans de sursis s'ajoutent à sa peine), pour violence avec arme sur un co-détenu.

En , il est condamné à six ans de prison pour quatre vols à main armée.

En , il est condamné à six mois de prison ferme assortis d'une épreuve de deux ans, pour outrage et menaces à magistrat. Il est libéré le .

Meurtre de Laëtitia Perrais

Le , sortant de son travail dans un hôtel-restaurant de La Bernerie-en-Retz (station balnéaire au sud de Pornic, dans la Loire-Atlantique) où elle est apprentie, Laëtitia Perrais rejoint Tony Meilhon. Le lendemain, Jessica Perrais, la sœur jumelle de Laëtitia, qui vit avec elle depuis 2005 en famille d'accueil, chez les Patron  découvre le scooter renversé à quelques dizaines de mètres de leur domicile, et prévient la police de sa disparition.

Tony Meilhon, arrêté le , est placé en garde à vue. Les enquêteurs retrouvent dans le coffre de sa 106 blanche du sang (celui de Laëtitia Perrais) et, dans son téléphone portable, des photos de Laëtitia Perrais prises sur la plage où ils ont fait connaissance. Dans le pré où est parquée la caravane, ils trouvent un caddie carbonisé qui contient un couteau, une hache, une scie à métaux et une boucle d'oreille appartenant à Laëtitia Perrais. Meilhon nie toute implication. Dans sa cellule de garde à vue, il chante  , aveux enregistrés par un gendarme avec son smartphone.

Une découverte imprévue l'incite à avouer en partie : sur les indications de l'ex-petite-amie de Meilhon qui révèle aux gendarmes le lieu où il aime pêcher, des plongeurs retrouvent le  la tête et les membres sciés de Laëtitia Perrais dans le Trou Bleu, un étang situé à Lavau-sur-Loire (Loire-Atlantique) au lieu-dit La Garenne. Le tronc est manquant.

Le  une promeneuse découvre le tronc de la jeune femme flottant sur l'étang de Briord : avec le réchauffement du printemps, la putréfaction a fait remonter le corps malgré le parpaing auquel il est lesté.

Interrogé, Meilhon soutient dans un premier temps qu'il a heurté involontairement Laëtitia Perrais avec son scooter. La croyant morte, il aurait , hypothèse qu'il qualifiera lui-même par la suite de .

Au terme de l'enquête, les gendarmes de la section de recherches d'Angers parviennent à établir que, dans la nuit du  au , Meilhon emmène Laëtitia Perrais dans plusieurs bars puis la ramène dans sa caravane où il habite. Il l'incite à boire, fumer un peu de haschich et même sniffer de la cocaïne. Alors que Meilhon est un cocaïnomane notoire, il est possible que cette consommation de cocaïne ait constitué une première pour Laëtitia Perrais. Il veut coucher avec elle, mais elle refuse. Il la viole. Elle envoie un message vocal à un ami, l'informant qu'elle vient d'être violée. Tony Meilhon la ramène jusqu'à son scooter, à La Bernerie-en-Retz, mais réalise qu'elle risque de porter plainte pour viol. Il décide alors de la rattraper avec sa voiture et la renverse à quelques dizaines de mètres de l'entrée de sa maison. Il la met dans son coffre, l'emmène dans un bois où il l'étrangle et la poignarde plus de quarante fois. Puis il démembre son corps et le jette dans deux étangs distants de cinquante kilomètres : le tronc dans un premier étang, la tête, les bras et les jambes sous huit mètres d'eau dans le Trou bleu, à Lavau, dans une nasse de grillage à poule.

Les experts judiciaires indiquent que la victime a été frappée, mortellement étranglée, puis poignardée à une quarantaine de reprises avant d'être découpée, sans qu'il soit possible de déterminer si elle a été violée.

Procès et condamnations

Procès en première instance
Lors de son procès en  première instance, en , Tony Meilhon reconnaît en partie les faits qui lui sont reprochés. Il impute cependant à un complice inconnu les parties les plus atroces de son crime. Les experts-psychiatres décrivent Tony Meilhon comme un homme intelligent et responsable de ses actes, à la personnalité psychopathique. Lui-même se complaît à se décrire comme « un monstre ». Au terme du procès, la Cour d'assises de Loire-Atlantique reconnaît Tony Meilhon coupable du meurtre et le condamne à la réclusion criminelle à perpétuité, assortie d'une peine de vingt-deux ans de sûreté et d'une demande de rétention de sûreté. Cette condamnation suit les réquisitions de l'avocate générale Florence Lecoq. Tony Meilhon fait appel de sa condamnation, dans le but d'obtenir la suppression de la rétention de sûreté lors du deuxième procès.

Procès en appel
Le verdict de première instance, sans la mesure de rétention de sûreté, est confirmé en seconde instance, en 2015, par la Cour d'appel de Rennes. Le , il écope d'une nouvelle année en prison pour avoir intentionnellement incendié sa cellule le 21 septembre 2016.

Parallèlement, Gilles Patron, assistant familial en Loire-Atlantique, est mis en examen le  pour . Alors que cet homme appelait à la plus grande sévérité à l'encontre des délinquants sexuels, plusieurs jeunes femmes, dont Jessica Perrais, l'accusent d'agressions sexuelles. Incarcéré en , Gilles Patron est finalement remis en liberté en mai suivant, avec un bracelet électronique. Le , la cour d'assises de Loire-Atlantique le condamne à huit ans de prison pour viols et/ou agressions sexuelles sur cinq victimes dont Jessica Perrais, placée chez lui depuis l'âge de . Le verdict est assorti d'une mesure de suivi socio-judiciaire de cinq années avec injonction de soins, sous peine de trois années supplémentaires d'emprisonnement, une privation de dix ans des droits civiques et l'inscription au fichier des auteurs d'infractions sexuelles. Cette condamnation a fait naître le soupçon qu'il aurait pu aussi abuser de Laëtitia. En juin 2017, il conteste son placement en isolement et fait une demande de réparation à l'État, laquelle sera rejetée.

Emprisonnement
Meilhon est actuellement incarcéré à la maison centrale d'Ensisheim.

En , Tony Meilhon met le feu à sa cellule pour protester contre le refus de l'administration carcérale de lui fournir du tabac. Pour ce geste il est condamné à un an supplémentaire de prison et  de dommages.

Le , il dépose par l'intermédiaire de son avocat des demandes et réclame des indemnisations à hauteur de  afin de protester contre les conditions de détention qui lui interdisent de travailler en cellule. Il demande également l'annulation de son inscription au répertoire des détenus particulièrement signalés (DPS) et demande l'indemnisation des périodes de placement en isolement au motif des préjudices subis.

Retentissement politique
Quand il assassine Laëtitia Perrais, en janvier 2011, Tony Meilhon est sorti de prison depuis un an. Il aurait dû être encadré par un suivi judiciaire, que les magistrats et un personnel social débordé n'ont pu mettre en place. Le président de la République Nicolas Sarkozy déclare, en référence à ce crime : . Le crime devient une affaire d'État. Ses propos provoquent une révolte sans précédent de magistrats qui observent une grève de dix jours dans toute la France. Le rapport du Conseil de la Magistrature montrera que le service d'application des peines de Nantes qui comptait trois juges en réclamait deux, et que le service d'insertion et de probation de Loire-Atlantique était en sous-effectif, ces dysfonctionnements étant connus depuis longtemps par l'administration centrale. Finalement, la sanction tombe : les magistrats ne sont pas sanctionnés, mais le ministre de la Justice Michel Mercier révoque de ses fonctions Claude-Yvan Laurens, alors directeur interrégional des services pénitentiaires de Rennes. L'intéressé est nommé Inspecteur des services pénitentiaires.

Reprise de l'affaire Laëtitia Perrais dans un roman et une série TV
L'historien Ivan Jablonka consacre à la victime un  en 2016, Laëtitia ou la Fin des hommes (Prix Médicis 2016).
Dans la série Laëtitia, basée sur le livre de Jablonka et diffusée sur France 2 en , Tony Meilhon est incarné par l'acteur Noam Morgensztern.

A generational divide is growing over formalwear, with males under 45 less likely than their older counterparts to wear suits for key occasions such as weddings and christenings.
Moreover, only a minority of males from all age groups are still choosing to wear suits in the workplace. Suiting specialist Moss Bros found full-year 2018/19 challenging, with like-for-like sales falling 4.3%, so the retailer must recognise and adapt to this change in behaviour to avoid becoming irrelevant.
Note: The chart shows the proportion of male consumers that said they would wear a suit to the given occasion. Source: GlobalData monthly survey, March 2019.
Though the majority of males would still choose to wear a suit to a wedding, only 58.9% of males aged 18-34 agreed compared to 81.3% of over 45s. This sentiment towards suiting is also evident when it comes to workwear. Though our data shows that younger men are more likely to wear suits to work, compared to the over 45s, this proportion is still low at just 40.6% for males under 45, as social norms change and more businesses operate smart-casual dress code policies.
To avoid further share erosion, Moss Bros needs to use its own sub-brands, such as Moss 1851 and Moss London, to create desire across the varying demographics through targeted styling preferences.
Outfit building advice via social media showcasing more modern and fashionable looks, particularly in occasionwear ranges, and creative in-store merchandising will help to attract the younger shopper. The brand should also increase its presence on third-party sites ASOS and Amazon to attract a wider customer reach, as well as utilise the opportunity to take occasionwear and workwear sales from Debenhams, which is closing stores.


It has now been a year since the infamous Perkins Review called for urgent action to be taken to address the UK's chronic shortage of engineers. These concerns are nothing new and according to The Telegraph we have been worrying about the state of science and engineering here in the UK for nearly 200 years.
Such illustrious figures as Charles Babbage, father of the computer, expressed concerns as far back as 1830 that England was in danger of falling behind other nations, due it its failure to support the scientific industry adequately.
The engineering skills crisis and the initiatives being taken to address it have been the subject of our blogs before. However according to a recent report from the BBC some individuals believe that current methods are inadequate, and that a new approach is needed in order to solve the impending skills crisis.
According to the article, leading member of the engineering field Sir John O'Reilly, a fellow of the Institute of Engineering and Technology, has argued that in order to encourage more young people into engineering careers, engineering needs to emphasise its creative side.
In a lecture delivered last Thursday at this year's memorial Mountbatten lecture at the Royal Institution, he claimed that recognising the role of the arts in engineering could attract more people into the industry, in addition to a number of other benefits such as aiding innovation and boosting future competitiveness. Sir John pointed to the fact that creativity forms a huge part of engineering, and the industry is also becoming increasingly diverse and inventive. During the lecture he also advocated the adoption of a new wider acronym, STEAM (science, technology, engineering arts and maths) in order to reflect this. Interestingly some university engineering departments are already collaborating with art schools in an attempt to develop understanding and improve products.
If you would like to listen to the lecture for yourself take a look at this handy webcast. Here at European Springs we recognise the important role creativity has in engineering design and innovation. We are leading spring suppliers and our products have a wide range of applications in the engineering industry.

Kentucky (28-6) enjoyed an easy 79-44 win over Abilene Christian in the opening round of the tournament. The Wildcats won without their leading scorer, PJ Washington (14.8 ppg), who will also be out for this game with an injured ankle. The Wildcats moved to 18-15 against the spread with the cover in Round 1.
Wofford (30-4) defeated Seton Hall 84-68 in its first game. In that contest, senior Fletcher Magee broke the all-time NCAA record with his 505th 3-pointer. The Terriers are now 17-11 ATS, including an impressive 10-4 on the road.
Let's take a look at which team will advance to the Sweet 16.
Franklin: Kentucky Will Be Just Fine Without PJ Washington vs. Wofford in NCAA TournamentRead now
Can Kentucky Survive Again Without PJ Washington?
The Wildcats rolled in their first contest without Washington, but Wofford presents a much more difficult matchup. The Terriers rank 62nd in the country in Adjusted Defensive Efficiency and are also one of the few teams that can battle Kentucky on the offensive boards.
Wofford ranks 29th in the country in defensive rebounding percentage, which will limit one of Kentucky's main offensive weapons. The Wildcats out-rebounded Abilene Christian 44-17, holding a 14-3 advantage on the offensive glass.
Wofford also excels at limiting its opponents' efficiency from 3P, which becomes a bigger problem for Kentucky in the absence of Washington. The 3P efficiency for the Wildcats improved throughout the year to their current mark of 36.2% (85th in the country), but they only shot 28.6% (4-of-14) against ACU, which doesn't defend the arc nearly as well as Wofford does.
The Terriers held opponents to 32.8% from 3P, which ranked 74th best in the country.
Kentucky will need a repeat performance from guard Keldon Johnson (13.8 ppg), who scored a game-high 25 points and grabbed six rebounds in the opening round win.
Wofford Will Not Be Intimidated
Head coach Mike Young challenged his team in the non-conference schedule to prepare his team for games just like this one. Last season, the Terriers won at North Carolina 79-75, this season the Terriers played admirably at Oklahoma, South Carolina, Kansas and Mississippi State.
Wofford had tremendous success against a strong defensive Seton Hall team in the opening round. The Terriers shot 46.4% (13-of-28) from 3P, led by Magee and Nathan Hoover, who combined to shoot 58% (11-of-19) from deep. Their offense is perfectly balanced, as illustrated by their third-best overall effective field goal percentage.
The Terriers will need to find a way to keep senior forward Cameron Jackson (14.6 ppg, 7.6 rpg) out of foul trouble. He is Wofford's primary inside presence of the Terriers and needs to repeat his double-double (14-10) performance against Seton Hall. If Jackson stays out of foul trouble, his presence is a huge advantage over a Washington-less Kentucky team.
If you ask the casual fan who wins this game, the answer would always be Kentucky. However, the Terriers are the hottest team in the country and have played non-conference teams just as difficult as the Wildcats. This game is close with PJ Washington, but without him?
The Terriers have a good chance to win and an excellent chance to cover.
Mike's Pick: Wofford +5.5, wouldn't bet it past +5

TIME is running out for those who want to sign a statewide petition to help wind back daylight saving by a month, Northern Tablelands MP Adam Marshall said today.
The deadline for those who want to support the Private Member's Bill aimed at ending the daylight saving period earlier is November 30 and Mr Marshall is encouraging those wanting to back his petition to get in now.
Mr Marshall said a Bill was introduced into State Parliament recently and has been backed by a number of his state colleagues, after widespread support from people across regional areas of NSW and protests about the length of daylight saving.
Mr Marshall said the petition needs as many signatories as they can muster to show a countrywide support for the move and trigger a debate in the Legislative Assembly.
The Standard Time Amendment (Daylight Saving Period Reduction) Bill – was introduced in the State's Upper House in September by Mr Marshall's colleague Trevor Khan.
If successful, the legislation would bring the end of daylight saving forward one month, from the first Sunday in April to the first Sunday in March each year.
"The petition is designed to demonstrate to city MPs the strength of that support and so while a typical petition would aim for 10,000 signatures to trigger debate, with this one we're aiming to get as many names as we can to show the extent of support and promote the bill in parliament," Mr Marshall said.
"We need to show city people that we have widespread support for this bill. We want to show people in the city that this is not a stunt. This is not a joke. This is a serious issue for people in the bush.
"It's not about ending daylight saving, which is a passionate subject for many people. This is purely about ending it just one month earlier. Across country NSW many people agree that the last month is just a pain; it drags on too long.
Petitions are available at Mr Marshall's electorate offices in Armidale (6772 5552) and Moree (6752 5002) and from every local council across the Northern Tablelands. As well, individuals can obtain petition forms from Mr Marshall if they want to back the clock turnback.

When people do something unforgivable, and when they do it intentionally and when they know what they are doing, then it is very hard to ever be able to forgive that person for those evil behaviors. We really can't forgive the people who did terrible things to other people. But we do want our communities going forward to have the capability of functioning in peaceful and harmonious ways and we don't want past sins to cripple everyone's future in those settings where it is possible to create real Peace.
There are clearly times when the cause of Peace can be significantly enhanced by starting fresh in a setting with behaviors that are positive for us all at the right levels.
Situations change. Some people do change. Others do not change at a core level but act very differently toward us in a setting because they now define us at deep instinctive levels to be an us in that setting rather than seeing us in their old way as a them. The reactions and values that apply to Us are very different than the reactions and the values those folks had activated in the past for Them. So we need to understand how to deal with those situations and those opportunities.
There will be more of those opportunities as we get better at attempting to create intergroup Peace. Sometimes, we need to push ourselves to think in terms of a fresh start. We can decide to build our communities now based on the right sets of behaviors that we can chose to exhibit to one another starting now.
Now is an important time frame. We can start from now and we can build trust now that exists now because we have earned it now.
Alignment is possible. New starts are possible. But some old sins just can't be forgiven.
Nelson Mandela gave his country a fresh start after a grim and often evil history of oppression and discrimination with a very clear and direct sin based reconciliation process. He created a Truth and Reconciliation Commission. He required sinners who wanted forgiveness and amnesty to confess with clarity and with deep honesty about their sins.
Those sinners who confessed and repented were not forgiven, but were given a new beginning -- full amnesty. They were judged in the future based entirely on their future behavior. They were given new beginnings, not clean slates.
We may need to do some version of that approach here. We have situations where damage has been done at the intergroup and interpersonal level. We, too, may need to think in terms of new beginnings and we may need to give people who have clearly reached new levels of humanity for their own thought processes some fresh starts.
Bishop Tutu was a member of that commission. He said some of the most difficult moments of his life were spent in those Commission hearings listening to the people recount their sins. But he agreed that the other paths that involved retribution and revenge were wrong for his country and his people, because revenge can be a never ending and deeply destructive cycle. Revenge creates its own damage for everyone going forward, and invites its own retribution levels.
If we want a world that works well for everyone going forward we need to start now with a foundation that can make that happen. Restarts instead of retribution.
The victims in the recent Church shooting reached out to go down a path that looked very much like the path of Mandela and Bishop Tutu and the Commission. People prayed for forgiveness for the shooter.
The consequences of that act of forgiveness have not been determined yet, but the likelihood of Peace for us all a year from now is clearly better than they would be if the families of the victims had taken guns and taken them out to damage the families of the shooter.
To make a future of Peace happen, we need to build trust now that the future will, in fact, be a fresh start.

At Humanity United, we are committed to bringing new solutions, fresh ideas and new energy to some of the world's most intractable problems. Over the past seven years, this has included a focus on the persistent problem of forced labor that is enabled by the complex nature of global corporate supply chains.
I am pleased to announce that Dan Viederman is joining our team this week, bringing his incredible expertise at the intersection of human rights and corporate supply chains to the new solutions we are supporting and developing here at HU.
Before joining HU, Dan was CEO of Verité, a leading non-profit organization working against global forced and child labor through in-depth research and corporate engagement. As CEO of Verité, Dan worked closely with NGOs, governments, investors and the biggest multinational brands in the world to improve working conditions and eliminate human rights violations across geographies and business sectors. Recently he led the creation and implementation of a technological tool to identify networks of illicit labor recruiters in corporate supply chains.
For the impact that Verité has had on the millions of workers around the world, Dan was the winner of a 2007 Skoll Foundation Award for Social Entrepreneurship and was named 2011 Social Entrepreneur of the Year in the United States by the Geneva, Switzerland-based Schwab Foundation for Social Entrepreneurship. Dan has managed NGOs in developing countries since 1993 and worked with internationally-recognized institutions such as the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) and Catholic Relief Services.
Dan has lived extensively in Asia and speaks Mandarin. He is a graduate of Yale University, the Columbia University School of International and Public Affairs and Nanjing Teacher's University.
Dan joins HU as Managing Director and will lead efforts to engage entrepreneurs and tech innovators in pursuit of new tools to address forced labor in corporate supply chains.


Bill Kristol and others are beating the war drum anew. Have they learned nothing from the last decade of conflict?
The Bush administration fought to quash its conclusions during the two years that the report was in the works. Mazetti reported, "Previous drafts described actions by the United States government that were determined to have stoked the jihad movement, like the indefinite detention of prisoners at Guantánamo Bay and the Abu Ghraib prison abuse scandal." Apparently, these were dropped from the final document, though the reference to jihadists using their training for the purpose of "exacerbating domestic conflicts or fomenting radical ideologies," as in, say, Syria, remained.
On the one hand, it is impressive how well our intelligence agencies were able to predict the likely outcome of the Bush administration's foolhardy obsession with invading Iraq. On the other, it is beyond depressing how little these assessments have come to matter in the discussion and debate over U.S. foreign policy.
As we know, Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz and the other architects of the war did everything possible to intimidate and, when necessary, discredit those in the intelligence agencies who warned of the predictable consequences of war. Cheney and his deputies made repeated trips to Langley to challenge professional intelligence work and used pliant members of the media — including Robert Novak of the Washington Post and Judith Miller of the New York Times, among many, many others — to undermine the integrity of people like Joseph P. Wilson and Valerie Plame, lest the truth about the administration's lies come out. Rather incredibly, they even went so far as to ignore the incredibly detailed planning documents, created over a period of a year at a cost of $5 million by the State Department, that had a chance of providing Iraq with a stable postwar environment. Instead, they insisted on creating an occupation that generated nothing but chaos, mass murder and the terrorist victories of today.
One could go on and on (and on and on and on) about the awful judgment — the arrogance, the corruption, the ideological obsession and the purposeful ignorance — by the Bush administration that led to the current catastrophe. As Ezra Klein recently noted, "All this cost us trillions of dollars and thousands of American lives." And this is to say nothing of the destruction of our civil liberties and poisoning of our political discourse at home and the hundreds of thousands of Iraqis who died, the millions of refugees created, the hatred inspired in the world toward the United States.
But to focus exclusively on the administration begs an obvious question. How did they get away with it? Where were the watchdogs of the press?
Much has been written on this topic. No one denies that the truth was available at the time. Not all of it, of course, but enough to know that certain catastrophe lay down the road the administration chose to travel at 100 miles per hour. Top journalists, like those who ran the Times and the Washington Post, chose to ignore the reporting they read in their own papers.
As the Post itself later reported, its veteran intelligence reporter Walter Pincus authored a compelling story that undermined the Bush administration's claim to have proof that Iraq was hiding weapons of mass destruction. It only made the paper at all because Bob Woodward, who was researching a book, talked his editors into it. And even then, it ran on Page A17, where it was immediately forgotten.
Many in the mainstream media came clean, relatively speaking, about the cause of their mistakes when it turned out that they had been conduits for the Bush administration lies that led to catastrophe. But what they haven't done, apparently, is change their ways.
Similarly, last month, Kagan was given 12,700 words for a cover essay in the (still hawkish) New Republic titled "Superpowers Don't Get to Retire," which he used to make many of the same sorts of unsupported assertions that underlay his original misguided advice. As a result, he found himself not only celebrated in a profile in the New York Times that all but glossed over his past record, but also called in for consultations by the current president of the United States.
This tendency was the focus of the coverage of the shocking defeat of House Majority Leader Eric Cantor in his local primary by a man with no political experience and little money, who attributed his victory to "God act[ing] through people on my behalf," and warns that unless more Americans heed the lessons of Jesus — as he interprets them — a new Hitler could rise again "quite easily." These right-wing extremists have repeatedly demonstrated their contempt for the views of most Americans whether it be on economic issues, environmental issues, issues of personal, religious and sexual freedom or immigration, to name just a few, and Americans are moving away from them as a result.
This is no less true, it turns out, with regard to the proposed adventurism in Iraq and elsewhere in the Middle East by those who sold us the first false bill of goods back in 2003. A strong majority of Americans now agree that removing Saddam Hussein from power in Iraq was not worth the trillions of dollars and lives lost. Barely one in six want to go back in. There is also strong opposition to military intervention in neighboring Syria. And yet not only do the same armchair warriors continue in their demands for more blood and treasure to be sacrificed on the altar of their ideological obsession with no regard whatever for Americans' desire to do the exact opposite, they remain revered by the same mainstream media that allowed them to get away with it the first time.
The conservative foreign policy establishment, it needs to be said, is no less out of touch with reality — and democracy — than the Tea Party fanatics who control the Republican domestic agenda (and are fueled by the cash of the Koch brothers and other billionaires who stand to profit from their victories). That so many in the media pretend otherwise, after all this time, all this death and all this money wasted, demonstrates not only contempt for their audience but utter disdain for knowledge itself.


This BMX video exposé explores the lives, both on and off the track, of the best riding talent Australia has to offer, including Daniel Reardon, Nate Adams and Robbie Adelberg. From hitting the track to hitting the pub and hitting one another in a barroom brawl, such is the life of the racing circuit -- and these boys wouldn't have it any other way. This film also features some epic montages of BMX stunts and crashes.

Suniva's Extortionist Owners Can't Be Rewarded
By Tony Clifford
I watched in disbelief yesterday as Suniva's former executives, attorneys and paid consultants testified before the U.S. International Trade Commission (USITC) pushing their ridiculous Section 201 trade case, about which I've written extensively. All of their arguments, of course, were complete nonsense.
But the moment I realized that no one affiliated with the company had even an ounce of shame was when I heard them suggesting that they were only interested in reviving the bankrupt module manufacturer.
What a load of poppycock.
Just three months ago, Suniva's real owners— the "Debtor in Possession," a finance firm called SQN Capital Management (SQN)—was offering to kill off its "child" for the tidy sum of $55 million—and that is not an exaggeration. If you don't believe me, read the letter embedded below which was placed into the record by one of SEIA's attorneys. It reads like an extortion letter out of a bad Mafia movie.
In it, SQN tells the arm of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce representing solar manufacturers that if only the Chinese solar companies would fork over $55 million, SAS would:
Withdraw the trade case;
Convert the bankruptcy to Chapter 7 from Chapter 11 (which would allow them to liquidate Suniva's assets); and, in the eloquent words of the letter
"…the company (Suniva) would cease to exist."
With friends like that, you can see why Suniva went bankrupt.
Does any of that sound like a company that intends to revive anything? No. SQN would apparently sell out their mother (or the U.S. solar industry) if it meant it could recover a few more bucks, and Suniva's not even a relative.
So, when Suniva executives told the USITC they planned to make Suniva great again, they obviously lied. SQN was in the hearing room, but did not elect to testify. Probably because they would have been asked some rather embarrassing questions about their May 2017 letter to the Chinese.
I hope the commission looks through this travesty and sees the real owners for what they are: some greedy bankers who are trying a "Hail Mary" to get the federal government to rescue them from their poor investment decisions. Under no circumstances should they be rewarded with a favorable decision.

There are so many exciting ways to make Shiraz that remain true to the terroir and style. And no whinging about the inclusion of the port – it's a trophy winner, with acclaim at the home of Fortified (Rutherglen) and it's my favourite wine style. Don't you dare put lemonade in it, and absolutely no need to send the women away to crochet while you tackle the round of stilton… it's divine with chocolatey desserts and it's a real crowd pleaser.


Can You Successfully Offshore Drupal Development Work?
In the last 10 years or so we have witnessed huge changes in the way we do business, buy and sell goods and services and access services. The phenomenal growth of the Internet has made the world a small village today. Telecommuting is no longer a mere idea.
Our team first started working with e-Commerce web sites in the early part of the year 2000. We had our own shopping cart product by 2003 and its name was 'Easyshopee Cart' which had very basic features for a shopping cart software. Since then we have used both proprietary and open source products to deliver e-commerce solutions to our clients from around the world.

Bajo el Imperio Otomano, los mukataa (en turco otomano muqata'a / مقاطعه, 'separado') eran hass-ı hümayun, parcelas de tierra propiedad de la corona otomana. Se distribuían a través del sistema de subasta iltizam; los derechos para recaudar ingresos de la tierra se vendían al mejor postor, eventualmente de por vida del comprador. A medida que el Imperio otomano comenzó a adentrarse en el período moderno, los timares vacantes, en lugar de ser reasignados, se añadieron a menudo al sistema de iltizam, allanando el camino para un cambio fundamental en el sistema fiscal otomano hacia un sistema monetizado, y permitiendo que varios agentes de poder se involucraran en la burocracia otomana, que anteriormente se había limitado al kul.

Esto abrió los escalones del poder a los que antes estaban excluidos, y también sirvió para alejar el poder del sultán y llevarlo a un grupo más amplio de nobles que ahora tenían un control más permanente del poder, y la capacidad de perpetuar su riqueza.

Historia
En el sistema otomano de los timares, las parcelas se asignaban a los cipayos, que cobraban a los campesinos (rayah) de esas tierras una parte de sus cosechas cada temporada de cultivo. A cambio, los cipayos servían en el ejército del sultán. Los timares podían ser reasignados en cualquier momento, y los ascensos a puestos más lucrativos solían conllevar el traslado a otra provincia.

Los mukataa estaban bajo el control de sus arrendatarios durante la duración del contrato, que podía llegar a ser vitalicio. A diferencia del timar, los ingresos de los mukataa se cobraban en lingotes de oro, al menos por parte del Estado, lo que suponía una fuente de divisas muy necesaria para el Tesoro.

Papel en la transformación otomana
El abandono del timar y la privatización de la recaudación de ingresos se produjo en un contexto de gran agitación en el Imperio otomano del  y principios del . Anteriormente, el sistema del timar se había apoyado en los avances militares otomanos y en los territorios recién conquistados, lo que permitía asignar territorios recién conquistados y proporcionar botín de guerra para pagar a las tropas, lo que fomentaba las campañas continuas. Sin embargo, la ralentización y el eventual fin de la expansión territorial otomana pusieron fin a esta época de tierras fáciles. Alrededor de la misma época, la guerra y el ejército otomano se enfrentaron a cambios drásticos. La infantería asalariada, equipada con armas de fuego, sustituyó a los soldados de caballería cipayos y a sus levas. En 1695 se introdujo la malikâne mukataa, o granjas fiscales de por vida, que otorgaba a los compradores el derecho a los ingresos de la parcela hasta la muerte del titular, y los liberaba de la supervisión local a cambio de incentivar el crecimiento a largo plazo. A medida que el cambio al mukataa fue ganando terreno, empezó a surgir una nueva clase en la sociedad otomana. Con la privatización de la recaudación de ingresos anuales, los funcionarios ricos, o los que tenían acceso a la información que podía hacerlos ricos en el nuevo mercado de inversiones del mukataa, tenían la capacidad de convertir los rincones del Imperio en sus propios feudos privados, ejerciendo el control a través de una red de agentes. Sin embargo, Ariel Salzmann identifica este fenómeno no como una pérdida de control para el centro, sino que «racionalizó el control estatal de una forma políticamente eficaz». Los contratos de mukataa de las malikâne, por tanto, se convirtieron en una forma de ampliar la definición del centro, permitiendo a los ricos de todo el imperio pasar a formar parte del centro, y «frenar el poder de los funcionarios locales que a menudo usurpaban las prerrogativas del Estado en materia de impuestos» Con la inclusión de la élite de todos los rincones del imperio, financiada por banqueros judíos, griegos y armenios, surgió una nueva clase dirigente otomana, abierta a cualquiera que tuviera la riqueza o la inteligencia para comprar el sistema.
