Frances Abbott has made an advertisement campaigning for same – sex marriage
Daughter of former Australian Prime Minister, Frances Abbott, has vocally supported the legalisation of same – sex marriage in Australia, notably on Instagram. Now, Australian Marriage Equality has launched an ad featuring her. It's brilliant!
Abbott did a brilliant job at explaining why she supports same – sex marriage. Her reason? Love and family. She spoke so fondly of her aunt Tony Abbott's younger sister), Sydney Liberal Councillor, Christine Forster, who is in a long – term same – sex relationship.
This is what the same – sex marriage campaign should have been about from the start — love and family! Finally, there's no ideological cat fight. Not left versus right. Just love. And LGBTQ+ people.
This is what about the "Yes" campaign should have been about all along! Instead, it's been hijacked by ideologues, who've, lets' honest, made the rate of favour for same – sex marriage has slipped to just over fifty percent. It's become a left versus right issue. For too long, the campaign has been divisive and not something that some supporters of the LGBTQ+ community want to be associated with.
Is it too late, though? We'll have to wait another month and see. There are no guarantees, but, as I wrote above, the "Yes" are still in front. Just. Hopefully, this advertisement can curb a further decline in support.
A few months ago, Australian Marriage Equality launched another advertisement, featuring former president of the Australian Medical Association (AMA) and author, Professor Kerryn Phelps.
While it isn't a bad advertisement, I feel that it combated ideology, rather than dealing with just dealing with LGBTQ+ people. It was about countering the Coalition for Marriage advertisement, rather than aiming at people's hearts. How many people really care about the politics, especially those who really don't care either way (the people that need to be convinced)?
This is what made Frances Abbott's advertisement so great. She has even said that she doesn't care about politics. So, she talked about someone she obviously loves very much, her aunt. She said that she wanted to see her aunt happy and equal under Australian law. Again, this is what the "Yes" campaign should've been about from the start.
What's more, Abbott didn't attack anyone; not her father, not Coalition for Marriage, no one. This is great, in my view.
Last night, Daily Telegraph's Sharri Markson told Andrew Bolt (who was impressed by the advertisement), that it was good that Professor Kerryn Phelps did one of the "Yes" advertisement as it may encourage older people to support the campaign, where as Abbott's campaign advertisement would likely preach to the converted. Maybe Markson has a point. I still think that Abbott's focus on love and family, rather than combating the Coalition for Marriage and the like may have won more hearts. It's just a pity it was made so late in the campaign.
In regard to the vote, do whatever you think is fair. If you do feel strongly about the issue one way or another, vote and have your survey in by November 7.

Cameras seize Miloš's bear in the course of the evening: He awakened from hibernation, LOOK AT WHAT HE DID FIRST / PHOTO /
"He usually comes to the feeder only at night, and it was like that this time as well. It seems that he was in hibernation for a long time, so he had dinner for about three hours. Miloš the bear has been monitored for several years and sent about 20,000 data during that time. "Sometimes it happens that it changes its dens during the winter," Vjekoslav Joksimović, president of the Jadovnik Association from Prijepolje, which gathers animal lovers, told RINA.
Along with Miloš, this February, another brown bear woke up from its winter sleep and also visited the feeding ground.
rina Milos after hibernation
"It is an individual that we named Mališa. He has been appearing on our territory since last year, when his mother left him. It is a young individual," says Joksimović.
So far, brown bears from the Jadovnik mountain have not caused major damage to rural households. The Kashan feeding ground also contributes to that, to which 30 to 50 volumes of food are taken out annually, so the bears do not look for meals in other places.

There is nothing quite like the feeling of finding something valuable that you had previously considered lost, is there? We have all panicked and turned our homes upside down in search for that family heirloom or, for that loose change that slipped out of your pocket.
But this story is not one of loose change or priceless heirlooms. This, for us Scots, is about something much, much more valuable. Whisky.
In the winter of 2007, a team from the New Zealand Antartic Heritage Trust were trying to restore Shackleton's old hut in the Antarctic. While they were hard at work, in the harsh, unforgiving climate, they found something. Something that none of them would ever have expected to find. The team had accidentally discovered five cases of hundred-year-old McKinelay whisky, belonging to the famed adventurer Shackleton himself. The strange thing was, these cases of whisky were buried apart from the other food and drink rations. So, it is a popular belief that Shackleton was saving them for a celebration. But, why would he leave them behind? Again, it is assumed that in 1909, when Shackleton and his crew were attempting to reach the South Pole, a harsh storm interrupted their challenging, courageous quest. Forcing them to abandon their celebratory whisky, and like loose change, it was thought to be lost for good.
To find the actual whisky of one of the most famous explorers and real man's man is one thing, to taste it? A whole other experience. Luckily, and remarkably, this was made possible via extracting the whisky. Which, was no easy task. As inevitably, ice had got into the cases, leaving some bottles broken. There was worry that some of the corks could have come into contact with the alcohol, which would have caused it to degenerate. Whyte & MacKay, who bought the Mackinlay, managed to retrieve a sample of the whisky with a syringe and with that the hundred-year-old sample, they were able to find out the ingredients of Shackleton's chosen whisky and, replicate it.
wave of publicity as many Shackleton fans, and Whisky fans eagerly anticipated the release of the whisky. The master blender of the distillery described the find as "a gift from the heavens".
Only a few people got to taste the whisky as it was only re-released as a very-limited-edition. Which left many asking the question "What did it taste like?" Well, "Cold." Yes, that was one of the official descriptions of the important, hundred-year-old spirit of a famed adventurer.
Did you know that Ernest Shackleton once lived in one of the townhouses that now makes up Channings Hotel? We have kept some of the original decors and have memorabilia around the hotel.

NetEase launches digital games platform in China
Report: Older Americans are choosing to spend more time on games
January 6th, 2020 - 11:40am
By Kayleigh Partleton, Staff Writer
Games have become a more popular past time among the older generation in the US.
According to a new report by the AARP, 44 per cent more people aged 50 and over play games at least once a month. In 2016, 38 per cent of people from that age group admitted to playing games.
Between 2016 and 2019, the amount of older players has increased from 40.2 million to 50.6 million. On top of the increase people playing games, there has been an increase in the amount of money those over 50 spend on games.
In six months last year - between January and June - the older generation spent $3.5 billion, an increase from the $523 earned since 2016.
On average, individuals spend around $70 on the hobby, more than half of that is spent on games, virtual items and in-game customisation.
Women have continued to be more likely than men to play games on a daily bases, in 2019 men were 39 per cent likely while 53 per cent women would play games every day. Overall, 49 per cent of women aged 50-to-59 claim to be gamers, while only 40 per cent of men in that age group claim the same thing.
In 2016, computers and laptops proved to be the most popular platform at 59 per cent, mobile was just short at 57 per cent. However, that has changed in the last three years - now 47 per cent play on PC and laptops while 73 per cent use mobile devices.
Consoles have proved to be the third-most-popular choice, though currently only 13 per cent of people over 50 choose that platform.
The survey was conducted on 3700 individuals.

The Ellicottville Town Superintendent of Highways is currently an elected position. After many discussions, the Town Board adopted a motion to give the voters of Ellicottville a choice in the Nov. 4 election; the choice of whether or not the Town Superintendent of Highways should continue to be elected, or should be appointed by the elected Town Board.
The Town Superintendent of Highways would be appointed only if you, the voters, give us the authority to do so!
We want to provide some information to the voters of Ellicottville who will make this choice on Election Day, because we feel that this is a very important decision. Be assured that we are not, in any way, attempting to take away your rights but are rather giving you another choice.
Unlike an elected Town Superintendent of Highways, an appointed Town Superintendent of Highways would be accountable to the Town Board; therefore, the Town Board would become responsible for the actions of the Town Superintendent of Highways. Members of the Town Board are elected by you!
Town Board members would not have the authority to appoint anyone they wish as the Town Superintendent of Highways; rather, the appointee must meet Civil Service eligibility criteria, which would include several years of road building/construction, cost estimating and maintenance experience.
Nearly all counties and villages across New York State have Public Works Superintendents that are appointed by their respective Village Trustees and County Legislators; that has worked very well and, in our opinion, an appointed Town Superintendent of Highways would be no different!
A YES vote on this proposition will not affect the current Town Superintendent of Highways elected status; if approved, the local law takes effect at the end of the current term or upon the retirement or resignation of the current Town Superintendent of Highways.
These are just a few of the reasons that we believe this would be a desirable change for Town of Ellicottville residents. We stress that this is a choice for you, the voter, to decide.
A YES vote on this proposition would support the proposal that the Town Superintendent of Highways be appointed by the Town Board, and a NO vote would signal support for the Town Superintendent of Highways to continue to be elected.
We encourage you to support this measure, but in the end, it's up to you to make that choice! Thank you for your consideration.

One of the recommendations made by the McNulty rail value for money study was that a leadership body be established to take responsibility for coordinating and leading on cross industry initiatives, including delivery of the other McNulty recommendations. The Rail Delivery Group was established in June 2011 by the major passenger and freight train operator groups and Network Rail to fulfil this role.
In 2013 the structure of the group was formalised to ensure that it continued to receive the full commitment of key people and organisations from across the railway industry. This was achieved through the incorporation of a new membership condition into the licences of Network Rail and those passenger and freight operators that operate over the mainline network.

Currently, vulnerable and poor farmers and agricultural producers in all provinces of Cambodia face a lot of challenges, constraints, and problems related to climate change. Ongoing research and development in agriculture in Cambodia will play an important role in increasing food production to help support people's livelihoods.
Mr Samouth Chin is Deputy Program Manager in the Department of Agricultural Extension of the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Mr Chin recently participated in a training program, conducted in the Riverland region of South Australia, which focussed on improved irrigation management techniques through enhancing on-farm participation approaches.
Mr Samouth Chin (front row, right) visits the dryland farm of Mr Paul Rudiger (standing far right) at Loxton, along with other participants from Nepal, Bangladesh and India.
Hosted by International Agriculture for Development, the two-week program provided him with insights into how Australian farmers and authorities were managing scarce water resources in highly productive environments. While there are vast differences between the two countries, especially in terms of farm size and production systems, there are a range of 'take home messages' that, according to Mr Chin, offer enormous potential to Cambodian smallholder farmers.
"Learning methods for managing water resources will provide huge benefits to food production in Cambodia, and the agricultural research and development in this area is likely to have a lasting impact for Cambodian agriculture," said Mr Chin.
"There are a number of simple low cost tools that can also be adopted by Cambodian farmers to improve the management of scarce water resources. These include soil moisture monitoring tools, understanding the physical subsoil constraints, and importantly, encouraging farmers to work together through 'farmer-to-farmer' participatory extension approaches," he said.
According to Chin, the lessons learnt from the Australian program included the fact that Australian farmers are always on the look out for new markets—they do the local market research before they choose what crops to grow.
Mr Samouth looks forward to sharing his Australian experiences and renewed enthusiasm with fellow Cambodian colleagues who are involved in the Cambodian Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries' new extension program initiative ASPIRE (Agricultural Services Program Innovation Resilience and Extension).
"While Cambodian agricultural systems are faced with enormous challenges, the training program taught me to view these challenges as opportunities," said Mr Chin.


Over the past few months, Restaurants Canada heard from an increasing number of B.C. members concerned about the growing hospitality labour shortage in the province. Besides Restaurants Canada's ongoing immigration and foreign worker policy advocacy, we recently met with the Immigrant Employment Council of B.C. (IEC-BC) and Youth Jobs Canada, who want members to know that they have resources you may not be aware of that may help your recruitment efforts.
BC JobConnect is a FREE online tool created by the IEC-BC to connect the province's employers to job-ready newcomers. This easy-to-use website is designed to help businesses fill their workforce needs while offering immigrants to B.C. an effective way to showcase their talents and gain meaningful employment.
BC JobConnect is not your average job board. It does not involve posting of opportunities by employers and endless sifting through applications. Instead, the website enables employers to identify candidates of interest based on flexible, multi-parameter searches of profile information and supporting documents uploaded by newcomer job seekers. Once employers find suitable candidates, the IEC-BC facilitates the connection.
Youthjobscanada.ca is the country's leading targeted and focused national youth employment website, demographically connecting youth with employers in Canada. With an innovative, integrated and singular approach to offer youth and employers choice, all in one platform, youthjobscanada.ca offers a national/provincial platform, affordable plans and a user friendly/easy-to-use process.


Nine months after getting engaged, Games of Thrones actors Kit Harington and Rose Leslie tied the knot in the latter's hometown in Scotland.
In a report by US Weekly, the onscreen-turned- real life couple, who met on the set of the said hit TV show, exchanged their wedding vows at Rayne Church in Kirkton of Rayne, Aberdeenshire in Scotland.
Fellow Game of Thrones stars Peter Dinklage, Sophie Turner, Maisie Williams, and Emilia Clarke also attended the event.
Harington and Leslie, who play Jon Snow and Ygritte in the famous TV show, met on the set of GoT over six years ago.

These two franchises made history in 1938. They became the first NHL teams to play games in Europe - they played a nine-game series in London and Paris. Since then, this is a fixture that's had many memorable moments. That includes five Stanley Cup Finals in 1952, 1954, 1955, 1956, and 1966. The Detroit Red Wings won the first three series, while the Montreal Canadiens won the latter two. But it's the Canadiens who have a sizeable lead in the overall head-to-head. They even beat Detroit nine times in a row between 2017-2019.

PER MERTESACKER reckons Arsenal have paid the price for not having Alexis Sanchez firing on all cylinders this season.
Sanchez scored twice as the Gunners beat West Brom to go back above Manchester City and put some distance between themselves and fifth placed Manchester United.
But he started the season slowly after helping Chile to win last summer's Copa America, and then missed two months of the campaign through injury.
"There are a couple of things we missed but this is obviously one," he said.
"When he was out, I think the statistics were not that bad for us – I think we played 10 games without him and won eight or something like that.
"But obviously if he is on the pitch, he creates space always for other players because he draws so much attention and that is the key to any team.
The Gunners travel to struggling Sunderland tomorrow with boss Arsene Wenger admitting he is surprised Mesut Ozil did not make the PFA team of the year.
Ozil has scored six goals and created 18 more this season and Wenger said: "I cannot explain it. It's the players who vote. I don't know why they did not pick him.


Jackson Avery, formerly a surgical resident at Mercy West Medical Center, finds himself in an unfamiliar (and unfriendly at times) new environment when Mercy West is merged with Seattle Grace Hospital.
Jackson Avery is known to showcase numerous different jackets throughout the course of Grey's Anatomy. Most often they are darker shades of gray, black or blue.
He frequently wears hoodies as well, but it is worth mentioning that he prefers the pullover variety as he is seldom (if ever) seen wearing a zip up hoodie.
This gray hoodie from H2H is a great match to the hoodie worn by Dr. Jackson Avery. Here is a gray cardigan sweater that is quite similar to the one worn by Jackson Avery on Grey's Anatomy.
This navy colored hooded sweatshirt by Gildan is very much alike the one seen upon the body of Dr. Avery.
Jackson's button down dress shirts are likely the most professional looking items of clothing within his possession. He is seen wearing them more and more frequently as he works his way up the ladder, so-to-speak, at Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital.
Which, by the way, wouldn't exist if it weren't for Jackson's mother, Catherine, investing in the hospital (which is once again in financial crisis). She agrees to fund the hospital through The Harper-Avery Foundation, on the condition that Dr. Avery agrees to accept the role of Chairman - which he does.
The jeans of Jackson Avery aren't necessarily always blue. While he is noted to wear several styles and colors of jeans including blue, black and gray.
Very much like the rest of his wardrobe, most of Jackson's jeans are a darker shade of gray or black. And if blue, they are often times a dark wash.
Avery's denim isn't exactly the focal point of his style, but they can be paired with just about any of his shirts or jackets to complete an accurate Jackson Avery cosplay.
Dr. Avery's footwear style has got a little more pizzazz than your average Doctor. He has been noted to wear athletic shoes - often times big name brand or designer.
His shoes are often times the same color scheme as the rest of his wardrobe, utilizing grays and blacks, but he has been noted to wear more over the top colors and styles when not on duty.
While these burgundy basketball shoes by Nike aren't quite an exact match, they are incredibly similar to the ones worn by Dr. Avery.
Jackson is noted to accessorize with several little extras, but who needs accessories with the most hypnotizing green eyes known to man and God-like sculpted abs.
It's no wonder just how Dr. Avery managed to swoon the love of his life and mother of his child, Dr. April Kepner.
This Omron Sprague stethoscope is a perfect match to the ones used by the medical staff of Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital.
These Dickies scrubs in either navy blue or turquoise are a perfect match to the scrubs worn by Dr. Avery while on duty as a surgeon.
In conclusion, I have found that Dr. Avery's style is sharp, well maintained, and most of all, easy to become accustomed to. Most likely because he wears so many casual jackets and jeans, Jackson Avery's outfit isn't much different than something your or I might wear.

an envelope with the return address "Internal Revenue Service" stamped on it. And this isn't the one that has the clear window with your refund check showing through.
As you stare at the envelope, your heart starts to race, you break out in a sweat, and you start to pray (even if you aren't religious) that it's not bad news. You open the letter and it's a notice that the IRS is either questioning items on your tax return, or you're going to be audited. Worse yet, you find out someone stole your identity, filed a tax return in your name, and collected a fraudulent refund!
You might be wondering why you received this notice in the first place since you have a CPA preparing your tax return. Here's the truth—even if you have a professional preparing your tax return, you are subject to being audited for a variety of reasons, one of them being you were selected at random.
While we make every effort to prepare your tax return as completely and accurately as possible, oftentimes there are missing items (such as 1099's) we were not informed of at the time the return was prepared, which will draw the scrutiny of the IRS.
Even people who have professionals prepare their returns are audited, or receive notices, and can benefit from audit protection.
The fact is the letter the IRS sent you is claiming you owe them money, or claiming you didn't report something properly, or claiming something you reported shouldn't have been reported.
It's not a fact. They want to talk to you and ask you more questions; are you prepared to answer them? Or what if they say one or even several of your deductions were not allowed to be taken; are you prepared to tell them otherwise?
In a moment I'm going to tell you how to eliminate the stress and worry of what to do when you receive an IRS notice, because, let's face it, when it comes to the IRS, you're guilty until proven innocent. How are you supposed to make sense of the letter they sent you that can be anywhere from 2 to 11 pages that's filled with verbiage that's pretty much intended for an expert to understand?
Sure, you might think, "I'll just call the phone number on the notice and see what this is all about," but be prepared that you're about to start a very long period of wasted time dialing, being put on hold, and even being hung up on. That's right—you can be waiting on the phone for 30 minutes and then they hang up on you! The IRS calls this a "courtesy" disconnect. Please explain to me what is courteous about someone hanging up on you?
What if the IRS wants to do a Full-Blown Audit?
Many times the IRS wants you to go to their offices. Do you want to go down to the IRS office by yourself, pass through security as tight as an airport terminal, then meet with an IRS agent who will show you his badge that lets you know he's in charge? He will then lead you to a conference room and proceed to ask you 54 very invasive questions about your affairs that you are expected to answer on the spot. Are you prepared to answer those questions? Do you have any idea what those questions will be?
This is serious stuff, and you better remember that old adage, "What you say here can and will be used against you." Talking to the IRS yourself is the WORST thing you can do.
Here's another scenario: what if you file your taxes and you get a notice in the mail that says, "We cannot process your income tax return because we already have one on file for you." That means that some fraudster stole your identity, mailed in a fake tax return in your name, and made off with a big fat refund check that was supposed to be yours.
How in the world are you supposed to prove that you are you? Are you going to "wing it" by representing yourself and hope that the tax authorities side with you? More than 1,500,000 taxpayers had their tax data stolen in 2016 and 2017 with $6.2 billion fraudulently claimed. So, yes, it happens a lot more than you realize.
Listen: the IRS has only one mission—to access and collect more money from you. They say that they are playing fair, but do you really believe that they have your best interests at heart? (The truth is, which the IRS will never fess up to, the agent's annual review and performance incentives are based on how much more money they can squeeze from taxpayers like you.) The IRS has the power to garnish your wages and seize your bank accounts—something even the President of the United States cannot do.
Even if the letter seems to be asking for something simple, you could damage your case without realizing it. We ask our clients to allow us to handle all of the contact with the tax authorities from start to finish, ensuring that the case is resolved as quickly and as early as possible.
Under law, only a CPA, an attorney, or an enrolled agent (a person that has been accredited by the IRS), besides yourself, can legally represent you before the IRS.
That's why having a seasoned CPA such as The Edwards CPA Group at your side is critical if the IRS comes knocking. Once we file a Power of Attorney form, the IRS must deal directly with us. We handle all communications and correspondence on your behalf and, if necessary, meet with the IRS revenue agent so you don't have to.
We have an affordable plan that I will tell you about in a moment because one of the problems is that you'll have to pay between $3,500 and $10,000 and up for a licensed tax professional to defend you in an audit. Think about it: that's money that could be spent on a dream vacation with your family, home improvements, or to spoil your kids!
You see, many people think that IRS representation is automatically included in the tax preparation fee. Of course, if we do make an error, we will correct the issue and take responsibility for any penalties or actions with the IRS.
But audit representation can range into the thousands of dollars. With the increase of tax identity theft cases and the frequency of audits over the past years, we are concerned about your well-being and have created a new plan to protect you. The IRS wants your money—and they're banking on you representing yourself so they can push you around and get more money out of you!
Not only that, but it pains us to see clients have to pay $3,500 and up to resolve a simple audit due to the time it takes to represent a taxpayer. And other small income tax notice issues usually take $300 to $500 or more to help resolve.
Imagine what it would be like to just call us up and tell us to "handle" any income tax notice or audit by calling and/or going to the IRS for you. And imagine you don't have to pay an arm and a leg to get us to do it.
That's right, you get to stay home. If the IRS sends you a notice, we'll automatically file a "2848 Power of Attorney" on your behalf and will work with the IRS on the issue without any additional time investment or expense on your part.
That way you can go about your daily life knowing that you have a bona-fide expert professional on your side dealing with the IRS/State so you can sleep better at night.
This sure beat having to negotiate with the tax authorities yourself without knowing any of the tax law. Representing yourself is a surefire way of getting manhandled by the IRS and having to pay through the nose for back taxes and penalties.
This coverage is all a part of our Audit Protection Plan. For a small fee that's added to your tax preparation invoice, we'll shield and protect you from ever having to deal with the tax authorities by yourself in case you get an audit notice or correspondence related to the filing of your tax return from the IRS or state tax authorities. And if you ever have to meet with an agent in person, we'll attend the meeting on your behalf. You don't even have to go.
Beginning this year, when your return is prepared, we will determine which Audit Protection Plan you qualify for and this fee will be automatically added to your invoice. You have the option to "opt out" of the plan if you choose, and we will remove the amount from your invoice; otherwise, you can agree to the protection by paying the small fee.
But if you choose to "opt out" of the worry-free Audit Protection Plan, you will be charged our usual hourly billing rates to handle any notices from the IRS or state tax authorities.
We also offer the same protection for Corporations and Partnerships (Forms 1120 and 1065).
Please call us for information on our customized business audit protection plans.
You can sleep better tonight knowing you are protected from one of your biggest nightmares.

What's the Buzz on Pharmaceutical Packaging?
Gonçalo Poças, the Marketing Manager at Neutroplast and the Director of Neutrodevices, explains that an important – if not essential – part of any pharmaceutical product is its packaging. Nevertheless, it has almost always been seen as an outsourcing need, due to its distance from the core business of pharmaceutical companies. This is ever more present if one takes into consideration that in the development of a new drug, the production of the drug itself, regulatory concerns and its marketing and commercialisation, there are already many physical infrastructures, human resources and other investment involved, which in turn form very heavy and costly structures.
In-Line QC – The Key to 'Zero Fault' Pharma Packaging Production
Until five or ten years ago, companies supplying packaging to the pharmaceutical industry delivered their cartons several days or weeks before they were needed. The cartons went into the stores at the packing and filling plant, where white-coated quality control (QC) people would descend on the job to check that they met with the brand specifications. But this all changed with the arrival of leaner than lean, just-in-time manufacturing. Nowadays the same packaging is delivered not to a warehouse but straight to the filling line itself, and not days or weeks in advance but instead when it is actually needed, almost to the minute. Maryline Strasser of Bobst Group explains how In-Line QC is the Key to 'Zero Fault' Pharma Packaging Production.
It's a Risky Business
Sue Lee of World Courier (UK) Ltd examines the issues of risk. Risk is a part of life, and will never go away, as we might tell the small child finding out what happens if he sticks his fingers into the electric socket. However, we should remember that if companies decided to take no risks at all then the world of commerce would grind to a halt. It is possible to circumvent almost anything if you are prepared to spend a great deal of money on shipping, chartering flights, driving to the other side of Europe, using hand-carriers and flying people to remote destinations, but these are normally extreme measures. Perfection can be achieved but is a very expensive commodity, and so a balance must be struck. We should consider the advice of General Patton, who said: "Take calculated risks. That is quite different from being rash."

Good Clinical Laboratory Practice: An Introduction
Tim Stiles, Director of Qualogy Ltd, introduces Good Clinical Laboratory Practice (GCLP). GCLP is a quality system for laboratories designed to provide a strong framework to those individuals and organisations that undertake the analyses of samples from clinical trials, specifically on the facilities, systems and procedures that should be present to assure the quality, reliability and integrity of the work and results generated during the organisation's/individual's particular contribution to a clinical trial.

Dermatological Models: A Sound Basis for Early Decision-Making
Betsy Hughes-Formella, the Director of Business Development and Consulting at Bioskin GmbH, explains that, in dermatological models, discrete evaluation of treatment effects may be possible following simultaneous application of multiple formulations/actives to small treatment areas in parallel in one individual, without risk of cross-over effects. By making intra-individual comparisons between treatments, the inter-subject variability is reduced, allowing meaningful interpretation of results with smaller panel sizes. Further, in these models non-invasive biophysical measurement and imaging methods to monitor skin function and structure provide alternative objective endpoints to support clinical evaluation, delivering additional information on structural and functional changes in the skin.

Adaptive Designs: A Method for the Future of Cancer Research
Thomas Zwingers, Chief Operating Officer for CROS NT, explains that, in the past few years, we have witnessed an exponential increase in costs for research and development of new cancer drugs: it has been estimated that the average expenditure in R&D for new drugs has doubled in the last decade. Consequently, the question pharmaceutical companies continue to face is: "How can we make a study more efficient while maintaining the validity and integrity?" Sponsors, clinical researchers and biostatisticians are becoming more interested in designs with greater flexibility than the standards and procedures that anticipate "go/no-go" decisions.
Implementing the Voluntary Harmonization Procedure for Accelerated Clinical Trial Approval
Traditionally, clinical trial application (CTA) approval in EU member states has been subject to national legislation. As a result, the assessment of a CTA that was filed simultaneously in several member states often resulted in varying final decisions and unnecessary delays. Country-specific modifications to the application often occurred due to changes requested by the different competent authorities and ethics committees. In some cases, a clinical trial might even be approved in one member state and rejected in another. The entire procedure could be extremely time-consuming and the country-specific modifications risk jeopardising the scientific value of clinical trial results. Dr Franz Josef Buchholzer, Vice President, Regulatory Operations Worldwide at PharmaNet, concludes in this article that in Europe, the voluntary harmonisation procedure (VHP) is a new method to obtain clinical trial approval across multiple European countries in a timely manner. In comparison to the traditional standard national submissions, which must be completed in parallel and submitted to each of the different European agencies, the VHP consolidates these activities into a single submission.
ePRO Technology Enables Reliable, Real-Time Suicidality Monitoring in Clinical Trials
Michael Federico, Vice President at ePRO, ERT Inc., states in this article that increasing concerns regarding treatment-emergent suicidality have prompted the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to issue draft guidance for prospective assessment of suicidal ideation and behaviour in clinical trials. The Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS), a free-form clinician-administered interview, is an accepted instrument for meeting this requirement. However, procedural variance in the way this and all clinical assessments are performed by human raters has been a shortcoming for many years, negatively impacting the reliability of results. Electronic patient-reported outcome (ePRO) solutions can effectively address this limitation.
Flexible Phase I Study Designs: Expediting Early Clinical Drug Development
Valerie Harding, Quanticate's Communications Account Director, explains that Phase I marks a significant milestone in the development of any new medicinal product. A target has been identified, a compound has been discovered that hits the target, and it has been refined to ensure it has good properties for development. In-vivo safety pharmacology and toxicology studies have been conducted and the compound has been tested in pre-clinical models of the disease. This process will have taken many years. A multi-disciplinary team has evaluated all the data, and decided to take the plunge and invest in clinical development. And now, the drug is ready to be tested in humans.

Pure Emotions Photography Lounge: Florida State Fair Contest Winners!
Florida State Fair Contest Winners!
Hi Ladies! Thank you all so much for your entries. It was a pleasure reading your stories. I wish we could give away a session to everyone who entered because everyone had such great stories.
We had only one couple enter who was willing to wear their wedding dress and suit for the fair and this is what we most wanted so we have chosen Kori and Andrew to receive the free day after session at the State Fair. Kori and Andrew have had some tough times over the past year with our struggling economy and they're both total goofballs and we believe they'll have a great time at the fair and we'll be able to give them some great photos from their session. Plus, we shot their wedding recently and their ceremony was at night time so they didn't really get many shots of the two of them alone and we wanted to make sure they get those!
We also chose: Julie and Flo! Julie sent me such an awesome story and it sounds like her and Flo will be up for anything we throw at them. They're already married and will be renewing their vows after TEN YEARS in March. The love these two have for one another shone through the story that Julie sent me and I believe these two are going to let loose at the fair and have a great time. Every word she wrote bounced off of the screen and touched me and made me want to shoot them yesterday! So, I can't wait to do their couples photos! I hope all of my clients will love one another forever and stay together for a lifetime. Julie and Flo, after ten years, are well on their way and it doesn't seem like they're slowing down any time soon!
Thanks again to everyone who entered! We might be running another contest in the near future so be sure to check back on our blog!
