Contempt of court – Committal.
European Union – Consumer protection.
Pension – War widow's pension.
Extradition – Double jeopardy. The judge had been right to reject the double jeopardy bar to the appellant's extradition to France for a single offence of premeditated conspiracy to commit VAT fraud. The Administrative Court, in dismissing the appellant's appeal against orders for his extradition, further held that the authorities in the present jurisdiction and in France were both ready, willing and able to respond appropriately to obviate the risk of self-harm or suicide.
Administrative law – Legitimate expectation. It would be unfair for the first defendant First Minister both to retain the political capital of the announcement that the work necessary to establish the investigation into his actions and decisions in relation to Carl Sargeant's departure from his post as Cabinet Secretary for Communities and Children and thereafter would be undertaken independently from his office, and to retain the power to decide what the arrangements for the investigation should be. The Divisional Court, in allowing the claimant widow's application for judicial review, held that, because of the First Minister's press statement, it had been unlawful for him to do that.
Immigration – Asylum. The defendant Secretary of State had not erred in certifying the claimant Vietnamese national's asylum claim as clearly unfounded and the judge had been correct in his conclusion affirming that decision. However, the Court of Appeal, Civil Division, held that the claimant had been wrongfully detained between 18 August 2015 and 14 September 2015, and was entitled to substantive damages, as it could not be concluded that continued detention would have been justifiable on the 'very exceptional circumstances' basis.
Solicitor – Disciplinary proceedings. The Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal (the SDT) had been plainly right not to depart from the starting point of suspension of the appellant for four instances of acting without integrity. The Administrative Court, in dismissing his appeal against suspension from practice for two years, held that the quantum of suspension was a matter quintessentially for the SDT, which could not be interfered with on appeal, as the exercise of discretion could be shown to have gone completely off the rails.
Practice – Pre-trial or post-judgment relief. The Commercial Court considered a worldwide freezing order and search orders obtained in aid of enforcement of an arbitral award for USD $1.3bn made by a Minnesota-seated tribunal. The court held that, among other things, it was appropriate for the freezing order to continue, and that the search orders would not be set aside.
Heritable property – Title conditions – Real burden – Validity of burden. Sheriff Appeal Court: Allowing an appeal, which concerned the effectiveness of the land-owning model of property maintenance in Scotland, by a pursuer which had raised actions seeking payment from the defenders of their respective shares of the costs of maintaining the amenity areas of a development in Dundee, the defenders' properties being burdened in terms of a clause of a Deed of Conditions by an obligation to pay a share of the maintenance costs incurred by the pursuer in maintaining the Open Ground, of which it was heritable proprietor, within the development, the court held that the sheriff had erred in law in concluding that the clause of the Deed of Conditions was invalid, in terms of s 3(7) of the Title Conditions (Scotland) Act 2003, as having the effect of creating a monopoly.
Civil procedure – Solicitors – Interdict from acting – Confidential information. Court of Session: In a petition in which the petitioner sought to interdict a firm of solicitors from acting for her husband in divorce proceedings, contending it was inappropriate for them to continue to act because of the risk of disclosure of information confidential to her which might be relevant in the proceedings and knowledge of which was potentially prejudicial to her interests, the court held that the solicitors were in possession of information confidential to the petitioner and to the disclosure of which she had not consented, the safeguards they had instituted were not sufficient to reduce the risks of disclosure of confidential information to an acceptable level, and the petitioner was therefore entitled to the grant of interdict.
Mental health – Persons who lack capacity. The applicant NHS trust succeeded in its application to the Court of Protection for orders, under the Mental Capacity Act 2005, that a 60-year-old diabetic man (PW), who had been diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia, lacked capacity to make a decision regarding whether to undergo the leg amputation surgery to address his high risk of sepsis; and that it was lawful to carry out that surgery, having regard to PW's best interests.
European Union – Trade marks. The Second Board of Appeal of the European Union Intellectual property Office had not erred in finding that there was a likelihood of confusion between the EU word mark 'LiLI LA TIGRESSE', sought to be registered by the applicant French resident, and an earlier EU word mark 'TIGRESS'. Consequently, the General Court of the European Union dismissed the applicant's action against the decision of EUIPO's Second Board of Appeal to uphold the opposition by the intervener company, registered in the UK, to registration of the applicant's mark.
Patent – Pharmaceutical patent. Actavis Group PTC EHF and other companies (the respondents) had appealed against the trial judge's decision that the dosage patent owned by ICOS Corporation and Eli Lilly & Co (the appellants), relating to the use of tadalafil in a dosage form for the treatment of sexual dysfunction was valid as it involved an inventive step. The Court of Appeal, Civil Division, reached a contrary conclusion and allowed the respondents' appeal, deciding that the patent was invalid for lacking an inventive step. The Supreme Court, in upholding the Court of Appeal's decision and dismissing the appellants' against that decision, set out the factors which were relevant considerations concerning the application of the test of obviousness pursuant to s 3 of the Patents Act 1977.
Employment – Working time. The description of the compensatory rest required under reg 24(a) of the Working Time Regulations 1998 as 'equivalent' could not be intended to import the identical obligation that would have applied under reg 12. Rather, the intention had to be that the rest afforded to the worker should have the same value in terms of contributing to his or her well-being. Accordingly, the Court of Appeal, Civil Division, allowed the employer's appeal against the decision of the Employment Appeal Tribunal and held that a period of compensatory rest under reg 24 did not have to be an uninterrupted period of at least 20 minutes.
Negligence – Breach of duty. The claimant company's claim against the defendant chartered surveyors failed. The Chancery Division held that the defendants had not failed to act in good faith and for a proper purpose, and had not failed to take reasonable care to obtain a proper price in selling property formerly belonging to a company in administration.
Divorce – Jurisdiction. The wife's application to amend a petition of divorce to plead that the court had the legal power to deal with the application under art 3(1)(a) of Council Regulation (EC) No. 2201/2003 (indent 2), on the basis that the petitioner and respondent were last habitually resident in England and Wales and the petitioner still resided there, was dismissed. The Family Division ruled, among other things, that, on the facts, the parties had not been last habitually resident in England and Wales. They had been habitually resident last in St Lucia. Accordingly, the new ground proposed by the amended petition could not be made out.
Land registration – Rectification of register. In a claim arising from the forged transfer of a property, although the claimant tenant had standing to apply for alteration of the charges register of the property by removing the first defendant's charge, there were exceptional circumstances that justified not doing so. Accordingly, the Chancery Division dismissed the claimant's claim for an order for the rectification or alternatively the alteration of the register maintained by the second defendant.
Motor insurance – Extent of cover. Neither English domestic case law nor the jurisprudence of the Court of Justice of the European Union supported the view that the carrying out of significant repairs to a vehicle on private property entailed the 'use' of the vehicle. Accordingly, the Supreme Court allowed the appellant insurer's appeal and restored the judge's declaration that it was not liable to indemnify the insured against a claim on his motor insurance policy for a fire which had resulted from work on his car.
Contract – Frustration. The claimant transportation company's application for summary judgment failed, in a dispute concerning the transporting of units of refinery plant from China to Kazakhstan. The Commercial Court held that the defendant company's defence had a real prospect of success, and that the claim should not be struck out because the defendant's cross-claim would not operate as a defence by way of set-off. However, the court made a conditional order requiring Globalink to bring into court the sum of $113,000 as a condition of being able to defend the claim as to that sum.
Company – Director. The claimant Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy sought orders disqualifying the defendants, who were the directors of two linked companies connected to a failed project to sell property in Brazil. The Chancery Division held that the second defendant's actions or inactions had not been serious failures when considering his role, his expertise and the circumstances. He had not acted with 'total negligence' or 'gross negligence' as required. However, the first defendant had misrepresented the truth and had perpetuated misrepresentations. His conduct warranted a period at the upper end of the upper bracket of disqualification, and he would be disqualified for a period of 14 years.
Company – Directors. Following the presentation by the petitioner of an unfair prejudice petition under s 994 of the Companies Act 2006 seeking an order that the respondent directors purchase his shares at fair value, the Chancery Division held that there had been unfairly prejudicial conduct for which the petitioner was entitled to relief.
Family proceedings – Orders in Family proceedings. The court remained the ultimate arbiter of whether a child had understanding or sufficient understanding to act without a children's guardian. The Queen's Bench Division so ruled in determining preliminary issues which arose concerning the dismissal of a mother's application to vary an order that the child live with her father (the decision). The court held that an appeal against the decision was a continuation of the first instance proceedings and, accordingly, FPR 16.6(5) (concerning a child's application for the removal of the litigation friend or children's guardian) applied. It further held that, on the facts of the case, the child did not have sufficient understanding to conduct an appeal without a children's guardian, that the guardian who had been appointed in the earlier proceedings remained appointed, and that the solicitor appointed by that guardian was not obliged to conduct the proceedings in accordance with instructions received from the child but, rather, in accordance with instructions received from the guardian.
Immigration – Asylum. The First-tier Tribunal (Immigration and Asylum Chamber) (the FTT), in its decision allowing the appellant Sri Lankan national of Tamil ethnicity's appeal on asylum and art 3 of the European Convention on Human Rights grounds against a decision to make a deportation order against him, had not erred in law in the manner identified by the Upper Tribunal (Immigration and Asylum Chamber). Accordingly, the Court of Appeal, Civil Division, allowed the appellant's appeal and reinstated the FTT's determination.

There are difference between big companies and small companies, I have noticed. I've noticed that a lot of new hires coming from big companies are more oriented towards getting something done, versus getting something done right, and when they make mistakes, they brush it off as if it's not significant or deny responsibility. I don't particularly like it, but I think there is reasonable explanation for this.
In a big corporation, there is a lot of resources, but few positions, and mistakes can mean that your chances of getting those positions just went down the drain, or possibly you being fired for your incompetence. Therefore, people who've worked for big corporations, being so used to that type of environment, instead of owning up to the mistake, they rather make up excuses or deny responsibility.
In a small corporation, talent is hired for cheap, and expectations aren't too high, so even if you made mistake, it's okay, since it's within their range of expectations.
This can be a problem for a person coming in from a big company to a small company, especially if they are coming into a management position or thinking about moving into a management position. A good leader feels responsible for all the incompetence of his followers and when problems occur he doesn't blame anyone but himself. A bad leader, on the other hand, might simply pick one of his followers out and make him the scapegoat. A good leader will look to himself to solutions to problems, a bad one might blame his subordinate for them.
The reason why I would bring this up is due to the fact that a co-worker of mine brought it up, and I thought it was interesting, and scary. I never realized how important a good leader is to me, and how they can make or break a company. I know that if I feel useful and appreciated, I'm more prone to do my work well, and go above and beyond all expectations. The worker's productivity and morale was high with a good leader, but when they had a bad leader that got angry at them over everything, the worker's productivity simply went down the drain. They no longer felt appreciated, a sense of purpose, or ethusiastic about tasks before them.
A personal note I'm going to make for myself is to plan for the mistakes of my subordinates. When they make them, I won't scold them, I'll simply show them the correct way of doing it, and ask that they be more careful next time. I'll probably going to take the extra step of letting them know that while it's good to get things done fast and right, it's much more important they you get it done right than fast. I'd rather have stable code that will last me years than unstable code that will require much more time investment.
I had to write some code to generate graphs today and I must say that the image library is awesome! It reminds me of the swing class of Java, but I think it's awfully neat to have a way to programmatically generate images. Although, I think PHP graphics are great for more "static" like pages, but wouldn't be sufficient enough for webpages that need to see more "dynamic". Eventually, all graphs will probably have to be done in AJAX, but for now, I can skim by creating simple graphs using the PHP image library. Maybe I'll have display my email in the form of a picture instead of text, the possibilities are endless.
I think the foundation is possibly the most important part of any type of script. In the script world, the foundation would possibly mean the heart of the system, the driving principle behind the component. I'm currently engaged in a project where we designed certain components around a core principle, and suddenly the core principle is de-emphasized. In my opinion this causes the foundation of the script to poor. Our current project is sitting in a crossroad where we can either further develop the system, or revisit the foundation and make sure it strong before we proceed.
I have sufficient evidence to demonstrate that our current system isn't as strong as it could be due to the fact that I've redesigned certain components and these components better represent the core principle in which our system is based. Yet, my group member acknowledges this fact and then says that no change is necessary due to the fact that in his opinion it's not significantly different. But the current system is not as true to the core principle as it possibly could be, if it was a percentage, I'd say it was 60%, where as after implementing the modifications I recommended, the performance would probably be boasted to 80-90%.
So I'm hesitant about moving forward and further developing the code which heavily relies on its foundation knowing that the foundation is flawed. I know that many times, we should code things to the XP principle of doing the simplist thing that works, but in no way am I running against that principle. In my eyes, the project simply isn't "working" the way it's supposed to. An analogy of the situation would be me trying to get an A in every pre-requisite class before taking the class I want, and my partner saying that Cs are acceptable and moving onto further topics. I feel that since this project will be very important to the important to the company that we get everything right, right from the start. This is what I believe. Even if we can code all the code in a strongly "modular" way and revisit them in the future. If anything is worth doing, it's worth doing right. To me, this is simply sloppy.

Can we psychologically immunize kids from mental illness? Yes.
I was recently re-reading Martin Seligman's great book The Optimistic Child and was struck (again) by the conversation he had in 1984 with Dr. Jonas Salk, creator of the polio vaccine.
Dr. Sallk said to Dr. Seligman, 'If I were a young scientist today, I would still do immunization. But instead of immunizing kids physically, I'd do it your way. I'd immunize them psychologically. I'd see if these psychologically immunized kids could then fight off mental illness better. Physical illness, too.' Wow. Right on, Dr. Salk.
So how do we immunize our kids from mental illness?
The research–and my clinical experience–point clearly in one direction: teach your kids how to problem solve.
When we look at kids that are thriving, we find problem solvers.
When we look at kids that are anxious and/or depressed, we often see patterns of emotional reactivity, difficulty making decisions, and lack of independence.
I've noticed something recently, in my practice and in my own family: when we're rushed, it's just easier for us to do the problem solving for our kids. When the clock is ticking, we want to just tell them what to do. No messin' around. No trial and error. You're good at time management, for example, so take over, bark instructions, keep things going.
Here's the problem: when you constantly direct your kids, and give them instructions from the outside, they don't learn to talk to themselves on the inside.
Problem solvers talk to themselves. They assess the situation, and literally talk to themselves about possible solutions. Then they take action. They might consult others, of course, but it's the INSIDE work that creates an independent kid who can handle what life throws his way.
So think about practicing this one change.
When something needs to be done, instruct your child to think about how he's going to get there, rather than lay out the steps for him.
Thank you, External Experienced Problem Solver! Or…you could go over the schedule with her, and give her a shot at planning on her own.
Will she get it right the first time? Hard to say. But asking her to think ahead and plan trains the part of the brain that Dr. Salk and Dr. Seligman recognized as vital for psychologically "immunized" people.
Problem solving is an immunization all kids need.
Browse my books and videos written for kids and parents to practicing more problem solving skills at home as a family.

When people ask me to define my personal style, I am never too sure what to say. I don't think I can define it in few words or put it in a certain category. For me, my style evolves everyday and I am always experimenting with small things whenever I have to create a look. I also don't like to box myself with a certain kind of style. If you follow me on my social media, you'd notice how I always have a different 'look'. One day it'll be ethnic elements blended with everyday basics, other day it'll be androgynous, then next athleisure and so on and so forth. I just don't have a fixed personal style and I try to keep it pretty dynamic. So while I try to invest in versatile closet pieces I can wear in different ways, I also make sure that my accessories can keep up with my ever evolving style. Further, I am not big on accessories per se, you'll rarely find me all decked up with five different accessories. I keep it to minimal but statement making enough. Besides just jewellery (for accessories), I put in a lot of thought to sunglasses or even watches that I buy. I prefer to keep these fun yet classy. Casio Baby G watches work perfectly for me for the same reason. I can wear these with practically with everything, and all my everyday outfits. Besides that, the Casio Baby G watches are rugged enough so I don't have to bother about nicks, scratches, drops or even water thanks to beaches and pool life I have here (well, Florida!). I don't have to think twice before strapping it on my wrist, it's just always a part of my outfit! You can check out the latest collection here.
This is a recent outfit I shot wearing my current favourite Casio Baby G watch.
God has been created you different than other and your style is very funky.

Q: Why doesn't the order matter in Probability I got a horrible doubt in probability. Kindly help me.

(in permutation and combination chapter)
Now our teacher has started probability

Everything was almost clear unless and until I came with the second pic. When we are doing "10c1*15c1" the order is already being counted in this. Then why should I multiply it with two? Or in other language if we consider that order does not matter then it should be 10*15/2 and in denominator 25C2 And if we consider order matters then 10×15 (Here 1st one green 2nd one red /or / 1st one red and second one green has already been counted___as I did in the 1st pic) And in denominator 25×24

A: Taking order into account
In this approach, it is the sequence of balls that are selected that matters.
The number of selections of two balls is $25 \cdot 24$ since we are selecting without replacement.
There are two favorable cases.

*

*A red ball is selected, then a green ball is selected, which can occur in $10 \cdot 15$ ways.

*A green ball is selected, then a red ball is selected, which can occur in $15 \cdot 10$ ways.

Therefore, the number of favorable cases is $10 \cot 15 + 15 \cdot 10$ and the probability of selecting one red ball and one green ball when two balls are selected is
$$\Pr(\text{one red ball and one green ball}) = \frac{10 \cdot 15 + 15 \cdot 10}{25 \cdot 24}$$
Alternatively, we can use conditional probabilities.
\begin{align*}
\Pr(\text{one red ball and one green ball}) & = \Pr(R)\Pr(G \mid R) + \Pr(G)\Pr(R \mid G)\\
                                  & = \frac{10}{25} \cdot \frac{15}{24} + \frac{15}{25} \cdot \frac{10}{24}\\
                                  & = \frac{10 \cdot 15 + 15 \cdot 10}{25 \cdot 24}
\end{align*}
where
$\Pr(R) =$ the probability of selecting a red ball from the urn
$\Pr(G \mid R) =$ the probability of selecting a green ball from the urn given that a red ball has been selected from the urn
$\Pr(G) =$ the probability of selecting a green ball from the urn
$\Pr(R \mid G) =$ the probability of selecting a red ball from the urn given that a green ball has been selected from the urn
Not taking order into account
In this approach, it is which balls are selected that matters.
The number of ways two balls can be selected from $10$ red and $15$ green balls is
$$\binom{25}{2}$$
There is one favorable case.  We select a red ball and a green ball, which can occur in
$$\binom{10}{1}\binom{15}{1}$$
ways since we must select one of the ten red balls and one of the ten green balls.
Thus, the probability of selecting one red ball and one green ball when two balls are selected is
$$\Pr(\text{one red ball and one green ball}) = \frac{\dbinom{10}{1}\dbinom{15}{1}}{\dbinom{25}{2}}$$
The results are equal since taking order into account doubles both the numerator and denominator we obtain when we do not take order into account.
As long as you are consistent in taking order into account or not taking order into account in the numerator and denominator, you should get the same result for the probability.

PDF to Papyrus | Papyrus Watch - Exposing the overuse of the Papyrus font.
Jeff pointed us at this PDF to image converter, so we gave it a shot. The first thing I didn't like, from a usability perspective, was the black-on-red filename text. And then gah! How untechnological. Perhaps they equated Papyrus with paper, and turning paper info an image? Even that logic isn't entirely sound. But once I downloaded my file (on a Mac) it was a .zip file which I found unnecessary, but then it unzipped to a .cpgz (whatever the hell that is)...which opened as a .zip...which opened as a .cpgz...you see the problem here.


Play through wooded, rolling, mountainside terrain. Experience the timeless design of Donald Ross and Robert White.
Opening its first nine holes in 1907, Buck Hill Falls established itself as a premier course in the Pocono Mountains. The eighteen holes added since have only increased its fame. As golfers play through the wooded, rolling, mountainside terrain, they experience the timeless design of golf architects Donald Ross and Robert White. Ridge line silhouettes, relentless undulations, and classic subtleties punctuate this 27-hole course framed by forested mountains. The Buck Hill Golf Club is a place that makes golf fun, where the pro knows your name, your spouse's name, your kids' names, how well you play, and who you like to play with – while also gently and enthusiastically integrating newcomers and novices into the Buck Hill golfing family.


These approaches ought to be applied coupled with any solutions or hearing aids recommended by your physician.
Know what can make tinnitus worse for you personally. A lot of people report that particular meals, drinks, or medicines could make their signs worse. Not everybody is impacted the exact same way, so make an effort to steer clear of triggers 1 at a time and hold a written log.
You could not really need to prevent every single conceivable set off. As a substitute, discover which important things influence your signs and symptoms.
Some doable triggers consist of: • Drinks with caffeine similar to cola, coffee, tea, and power drinks • Alcohol • Aspirin • Salt Kick the habit, in the event you smoke. Smoking could make tinnitus worse in two means. It harms blood movement for the delicate nerve cells that management your hearing. In addition, it acts being a stimulant in the physique.

Assistant Chief Jessica Robledo announced her retirement from the Austin Police Department. Technically, her last day is this Friday, Sept. 2, though word around the department is that the assistant chief has been largely inactive since midsummer. Robledo, who joined the force in 1988, was appointed assistant chief in Sept. 2013. She was the department's first Hispanic assistant chief and the only woman at the executive level during her tenure. She received her appointment upon the retirement of Patti Robinson, the only other woman to serve as an assistant chief under APD's current administration. The department does not currently employ any women in its commander rank – as of May 2016, there were 18 commanders at APD – though Robledo's tenure as commander lasted only one day before she was appointed an assistant chief. (Prior to that she spent four-and-a-half years as a lieutenant. Frank Dixon, the most recent AC appointee, was also summoned to the Fifth Floor while a lieutenant, bypassing the commander rank.) Chief Art Acevedo has indicated that Region 2 District Commander Joseph Chacon will replace Robledo upon her official retirement on Friday.

Laurent Garnier/ The Limiñanas « De Pelicula »
This is the story of a friendship started thanks to a ring tone and that's now making waves through a one-of-a-kind project. Back in 2017, Lionel and Marie Limiñana, better known as The Limiñanas, the couple/duo that have gone on to release 6 albums since 2009, were invited by Laurent Garnier to perform at the Yeah festival, where the ring tone seminal moment happened. The sound of the signature riff from the Kingsmen song « Louie Louie » caught Laurent's attention and kicked off a new adventure for the Perpignan natives and the Parisian artist now settled in the Provence. Four years on and the psychedelic garage duo and French techno pioneer DJ/producer have now produced together De Pelicula, a record that feels like a walk on the wild side, one straight out of a film noir that was spawned from the need to write music that tells a story and rattles all traditional patterns in a (super) sonic trance. A heated road-trip spent chasing Juliette and Saul, two teenage rascals straight out of a '60s classic – think "Breathless" (original title: A bout de Souffle) meets Sailor and Lula – balancing on the southern border with Spain, knocked out by the heat and cheap liquor. A true concept album that's not afraid to stray and run free, or rather "an Italian anthology film" as Lionel Limiñana puts it, a great mumbo jumbo where it takes two, humour and melancholy, to tango. Squalid brothels, thirdrate dance clubs, '60s vintage caravans, smack, a preacher from The Night of the Hunter, Roger Harth and Donald Cardwell productions, distortions and fuzz-pedal sound effects, Gilles Deleuze philosophy and Professor X are some of the atmospheres and characters that inhabit the world of this dramainspire record.
De Pelicula started through a shared love for the German band Can, trance music, psychedelics, but also dancing and all those "genres of music that allow you to drift off" as Laurent Garnier puts it. In 2018, Laurent produced a remix of « Dimanche » taken from the Limiñanas album Shadow People. They get talking, a lot, and laugh, even more. It was in 2019 that Lionel suggested to Laurent to come and work with them on what would become « Steeplechase », a 6-minute 30-second / hair-raising maelstrom of psychedelic lava that has now become one of De Pelicula's hypnotic feats. The compass was set and since every bad thing has its silver lining, the March 2020 lockdown meant a speedy production for an album that came together remotely, in the space of just 4 months of intensive creative back and forth. Garnier sums it up better « We sized each other up, and really liked what we were doing together, and from then on it all went very quickly, in a very organic and simple way.»
The result is neither a Limiñanas techno record nor a Laurent Garnier rock album. « We worked together as if we were shaping the same bit of clay » explains Lionel Limiñana. « Laurent's contribution goes beyond the mere production of beats and samples. He's much more involved in the whole production, contributing themes, additional production and his writing skills. It was a fully collaborative project.»
Having previously worked alongside Anton Newcombe from American band The Brian Jonestown Massacre and Emmanuelle Seigner on their common project L'épée in 2019, Laurent knows how to give everyone enough space to spread their wings. There's only one condition that Laurent was strict about « I didn't want to make a track with a techno beat, it really didn't have its place on this album I thought.
Lionel had put a few in, I cleared all that out». Therefore, there's no rigid elements holding De Pelicula together, the record constantly shifts and winds. « I wanted to stay within the Limiñanas world », adds Garnier, « rather than bring them crashing into technoland. To keep their signature feel, but with layers and structures that felt more like mine ».
But it took a few more than just 6 helping hands for De Pelicula to materialise. Bertrand Belin, a regular Limiñana sidekick, laid his vocals on « Au début, c'était le début » for which he also wrote the lyrics.
Same as Eduardo Henriquez, the heart and soul of Franco-Chilean rock bands Panico and Nova Materia with the track « Que Calor », while Ivan Telefunken, guitarist with Pascal Comelade's Bel Canto Orchestra contributed extra guitar licks. And just in case you were wondering, it is indeed Laurent Garnier's vocals you can hear on « Juliette dans la caravane » or even in « Tu tournes en boucle » behind that of Lionel and Marie's.

Healthcare Industry News: Allergan
Biopharmaceuticals Generics Oncology FDA
News Release - July 31, 2017
Amgen and Allergan Submit Biosimilar Biologics License Application for ABP 980 to US Food and Drug Administration
Filing for ABP 980, a Biosimilar Candidate to Herceptin® (trastuzumab), Supported by Phase 3 Data in Patients With HER2-Positive Early Breast Cancer
THOUSAND OAKS, Calif., July 31, 2017 -- (Healthcare Sales & Marketing Network) -- Amgen (NASDAQ: AMGN) and Allergan plc. (NYSE: AGN) today announced the submission of a Biologics License Application (BLA) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for ABP 980, a biosimilar candidate to Herceptin® (trastuzumab). Amgen and Allergan are collaborating on four oncology biosimilar medicines, including ABP 980 which is the second to be submitted for FDA approval.
"The submission of ABP 980 for FDA review is an exciting milestone and speaks to our joint commitment with Allergan to deliver quality oncology biosimilars to patients," said Sean E. Harper, M.D., executive vice president of Research and Development at Amgen. "Approval of ABP 980 would provide more patients access to a high-quality therapy with a proven safety and efficacy profile. We look forward to further discussions with the FDA."
"Today's submission is our second U.S. biosimilar submission in less than a year as part of our collaboration with Amgen," said David Nicholson, chief R&D officer at Allergan. "We're proud of the progress we've made so far and look forward to continuing our work to bring more biosimilars to market."
ABP 980 is a biosimilar candidate to trastuzumab, a recombinant DNA-derived humanized monoclonal immunoglobulin G1 kappa antibody that targets HER2. Trastuzumab is approved for the treatment of HER2-positive adjuvant breast cancer, metastatic breast cancer and metastatic gastric cancer in the U.S.
The BLA submission includes analytical, pharmacokinetic and clinical data, as well as pharmacology and toxicology data. The Phase 3 comparative efficacy, safety and immunogenicity study was conducted in adult female patients with HER2-positive early breast cancer.
Amgen and Allergan are collaborating on the development and commercialization of four oncology biosimilars. Amgen has a total of 10 biosimilars in its portfolio, one of which has been approved by the FDA.
About ABP 980
ABP 980 is being developed as a biosimilar to trastuzumab, a recombinant DNA-derived humanized monoclonal immunoglobulin G1 kappa antibody approved in many regions for the treatment of HER2-overexpressing early breast cancer, adjuvant breast cancer, metastatic breast cancer and metastatic gastric cancer. The active ingredient of ABP 980 is a humanized monoclonal antibody that has the same amino acid sequence as trastuzumab. ABP 980 has the same pharmaceutical dosage form and strength as trastuzumab. Amgen and Allergan also submitted a Marketing Authorization Application to the European Medicines Agency for ABP 980 earlier this year.
About the Amgen and Allergan Collaboration
In December 2011, Amgen and Allergan plc. (then Watson Pharmaceuticals, Inc.) formed a collaboration to develop and commercialize, on a worldwide basis, four oncology antibody biosimilar medicines.

Amgen Forward-Looking Statements
This news release contains forward-looking statements that are based on the current expectations and beliefs of Amgen. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, are statements that could be deemed forward-looking statements, including estimates of revenues, operating margins, capital expenditures, cash, other financial metrics, expected legal, arbitration, political, regulatory or clinical results or practices, customer and prescriber patterns or practices, reimbursement activities and outcomes and other such estimates and results. Forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties, including those discussed below and more fully described in the Securities and Exchange Commission reports filed by Amgen, including our most recent annual report on Form 10-K and any subsequent periodic reports on Form 10-Q and Form 8-K. Unless otherwise noted, Amgen is providing this information as of the date of this news release and does not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statements contained in this document as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
No forward-looking statement can be guaranteed and actual results may differ materially from those we project. Discovery or identification of new product candidates or development of new indications for existing products cannot be guaranteed and movement from concept to product is uncertain; consequently, there can be no guarantee that any particular product candidate or development of a new indication for an existing product will be successful and become a commercial product. Further, preclinical results do not guarantee safe and effective performance of product candidates in humans. The complexity of the human body cannot be perfectly, or sometimes, even adequately modeled by computer or cell culture systems or animal models. The length of time that it takes for us to complete clinical trials and obtain regulatory approval for product marketing has in the past varied and we expect similar variability in the future. Even when clinical trials are successful, regulatory authorities may question the sufficiency for approval of the trial endpoints we have selected. We develop product candidates internally and through licensing collaborations, partnerships and joint ventures. Product candidates that are derived from relationships may be subject to disputes between the parties or may prove to be not as effective or as safe as we may have believed at the time of entering into such relationship.
Our results may be affected by our ability to successfully market both new and existing products domestically and internationally, clinical and regulatory developments involving current and future products, sales growth of recently launched products, competition from other products including biosimilars, difficulties or delays in manufacturing our products and global economic conditions. In addition, sales of our products are affected by pricing pressure, political and public scrutiny and reimbursement policies imposed by third-party payers, including governments, private insurance plans and managed care providers and may be affected by regulatory, clinical and guideline developments and domestic and international trends toward managed care and healthcare cost containment. Furthermore, our research, testing, pricing, marketing and other operations are subject to extensive regulation by domestic and foreign government regulatory authorities. We or others could identify safety, side effects or manufacturing problems with our products, including our devices, after they are on the market. Our business may be impacted by government investigations, litigation and product liability claims. In addition, our business may be impacted by the adoption of new tax legislation or exposure to additional tax liabilities. If we fail to meet the compliance obligations in the corporate integrity agreement between us and the U.S. government, we could become subject to significant sanctions. Further, while we routinely obtain patents for our products and technology, the protection offered by our patents and patent applications may be challenged, invalidated or circumvented by our competitors, or we may fail to prevail in present and future intellectual property litigation. We perform a substantial amount of our commercial manufacturing activities at a few key facilities and also depend on third parties for a portion of our manufacturing activities, and limits on supply may constrain sales of certain of our current products and product candidate development. In addition, we compete with other companies with respect to many of our marketed products as well as for the discovery and development of new products. Further, some raw materials, medical devices and component parts for our products are supplied by sole third-party suppliers. Certain of our distributors, customers and payers have substantial purchasing leverage in their dealings with us. The discovery of significant problems with a product similar to one of our products that implicate an entire class of products could have a material adverse effect on sales of the affected products and on our business and results of operations. Our efforts to acquire other companies or products and to integrate the operations of companies we have acquired may not be successful. We may not be able to access the capital and credit markets on terms that are favorable to us, or at all. We are increasingly dependent on information technology systems, infrastructure and data security. Our stock price is volatile and may be affected by a number of events. Our business performance could affect or limit the ability of our Board of Directors to declare a dividend or our ability to pay a dividend or repurchase our common stock.
The scientific information discussed in this news release related to our product candidates is preliminary and investigative. Such product candidates are not approved by the FDA, and no conclusions can or should be drawn regarding the safety or effectiveness of the product candidates.

September 23, 2011 (KHARTOUM) – The president of South Sudan Salva Kiir met on Thursday with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly meetings in New York.
"South Sudan was established after long negotiations and with the agreement of all parties involved and the international community. Israel was among the first countries to recognize South Sudan, less than 24 hours after it was declared, and will be pleased to contribute knowledge and experience to it in a variety of fields that can help the new country," Netanyahu said.
South Sudan became an independent state last July after its citizens voted overwhelmingly in favor of separation from the Arab-Muslim dominated north. The referendum was stipulated in the 2005 Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA) signed between North and South Sudan.
South Sudan among many nations has pledged to support the Palestinian bid at the United Nations. It is not clear if Netanyahu sought persuade Kiir not to do so.
Israel is home to thousands of Sudanese refugees, including hundreds from South Sudan, and the country's independence was greeted with celebration parties in Tel Aviv, home to much of Israel's Sudanese community.
The Jewish state promised to assist South Sudan n areas of infrastructure, communications and agriculture.
Sudan and South Sudan have signed an agreement on border crossings in a bid to reduce tension following the South's independence in July.
The two sides have agreed to open 10 border crossings to ease travel.
Last week, South Sudan accused the north of damaging its economy through a cargo embargo, in place since May.
For its part, Sudan accuses the South of fuelling conflict in the border regions of South Kordofan and Blue Nile, an allegation Juba denies.
The agreement, signed in Khartoum and brokered by African Union mediator and former South African President Thabo Mbeki, said the crossings would be guarded by six soldiers from each side, while Ethiopian peacekeepers would investigate any reports of violations, the Sudanese news agency reports.
In July, the UN Security Council sanctioned the deployment of 300 Ethiopian troops to monitor a demilitarised buffer zone between the two countries.
"Today we agreed to open 10 border crossings, to facilitate the movement of people and communication between the people of the two countries," Sudan's Defence Minister Abdelrahim Mohammed Hussein said, after signing the accord with his counterpart, John Kong, the AFP news agency reports.
Despite the deal, the two sides have not yet demarcated their border – especially in Abyei, which is claimed by both sides.
Gen Hussein denied the conflict in Blue Nile and South Kordofan – which had displaced tens of thousands of people – had caused tension between the two countries.
"There are no allegations against the government of South Sudan and there are no differences between us on Blue Nile and South Kordofan," he said, AFP reports.
Earlier this month, Sudan said it was complaining to the UN Security Council that South Sudan had sent 25 armed land-cruisers to support rebels in Blue Nile.
Sudan had previously made a similar complaint about South Kordofan, where rebels have been fighting pro-Khartoum forces for the last three months.
South Sudan strongly denies the allegations.
During the long north-south civil war, many residents of the two areas fought for the SPLM , which is now the ruling party in the south.
Last week, Sudan ordered 17 political parties, including the SPLM-North, from operating, saying their leaders were now foreigners.
South Sudan has also accused the north of declaring an "economic war" by unilaterally introducing a new currency and imposing a cargo embargo in May.
كشفت موقع (ويكليكس) عن محضر إجتماع دار بين مستشار الرئيس السوداني للشؤون الخارجية مصطفي عثمان إسماعيل والقائم بالأعمال في السفارة الأميركية في الخرطوم البرتو فرنانديز في يناير 2009م. وأطلع إسماعيل فرنانديز بأن قيادة المؤتمر الوطني كانت قد إتخذت قرارات إستراتيجية "تقربها من الغرب"، من بينها قرار قيادة المؤتمر الوطني بتسليم أحمد هارون- والي جنوب كردفان الحالي- وعلي كوشيب- زعيم مليشيا الجنجويد- لكن قرار الجنائية بالقبض على الرئيس البشير قد جعل المؤتمر الوطني يتراجع عن هذه الخطوة- على حد تعبير إسماعيل في الوثيقة المعنية.
تابع إسماعيل: "الخطوة الأخرى، كنا قد إتفقنا على ترشيح شخص آخر بديلاً للبشير لدخول إنتخابات مايو 2009م .. وإحالة البشير للمعاش بعد عشرين عاماً قضاها في الحكم. كل الذين يعملون معنا (في المؤتمر الوطني) على ردم الهوة السياسية بيننا وبين الغرب فشلنا في القيام بهذه الخطوات بعد قرار الجنائية ضد البشير".

2019, Archive, Seal of Approval
Review: RBG
Directors: Julie Cohen, Betsy West
With biopic On The Basis Of Sex currently playing in cinemas, Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is having something of a career victory lap at the movies. Complimenting the dramatised version of her life starring Felicity Jones (or perhaps showing it up) is this delightful documentary from Julie Cohen and Betsy West, available to stream from Curzon Home Cinema. It's a rosy, light-footed celebration of one of the most remarkable women in modern American history, now embraced by the millennial meme-making community with the same enthusiasm as Jeff Goldblum.
The film is introduced in a blaze of soundbites, media and SNL sketch clips, acknowledging that her peers jovially call her "the Notorious RBG", that to her childhood friends she is "Kicky", and to her family she has become "Bubbe"; the Yiddish word for grandmother. In this way the film quickly separates Ginsburg from her legend to locate a more keenly knowable person. But the legend is quite something. Building a chronological narrative makes sense. She speaks candidly about her experiences as a rank outsider at Harvard in 1957 – already a parent to a 14-month-old – and how the disparity of treatment and representation she encountered spurred her on to strive for greater equality in the United States.
Cohen and West also underscore Ginsburg's intense work ethic during this time and since; sleeping only two hours a night during the week; catching up on weekends. Along the way RBG becomes a reflecting pool for the expansion of liberal values in the US, charting her career against societal upheavals like the civil rights movement as well as landmark cases in American legal history.
"Nice girls didn't file lawsuits," goes one spicy soundbite, evidencing the attitudes being faced by Ginsburg at the start of her career. RBG isn't about to waste time discussing the merits of equality, but rather sets forth as a flat-out rejection of subjugation. That sense of no-nonsense forward momentum is extremely giving. RBG feels as though it exists on a boundless updraft. It's a film as optimistic as it is grateful for Ginsburg and her contribution.
Now in her eighties, Ginsburg appears for interview for the film and is also followed by the filmmakers. Her late life vigor and vitality recalls the similarly celebratory Iris by Albert Maysles, which followed fashion designer Iris Apfel. Indeed, some of the most enjoyable sequences here occur when RBG settles on Ginsburg talking to rapt audiences. Rows of inspired young men and women attending Q&As. In turn the film itself becomes inspirational, especially in the fat floating face of Donald Trump.
Not for nothing, her husband Marty makes for a fine role model for men watching who may be uncertain of how to support an ambitious and driven career woman and idealist. Honestly, the archival footage of the two of them being interviewed together is too damned sweet. The middle of the picture covers her swearing-in as a Supreme Court Justice in 1993 and takes pains to position Ginsburg as a relative centralist on that esteemed board of individuals, doing her best to strike balance among her new peers across the political spectrum. As the climate of the court changed, so Ginsburg moved herself to the left to sustain said balance. What's particularly enjoyable to see here are those that have opposed Ginsburg acknowledging that, damn, they went up against the best.
Under other circumstances one might knock a document like RBG for its rose-tinted bias; call it a puff-piece or hagiography. But such is Ginsburg's contribution to society – and her great charm as a person – that this kind of unabashed celebration seems wholeheartedly justified. The legacy is significant. Cohen and West bring exuberance to the table; a clear love for their subject and the nous for how to transmit this feeling.

What are Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs)?
Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are a new type of digital asset that are built on blockchain technology. They are unique and can have different values, unlike regular cryptocurrencies. NFTs can be used to represent ownership over assets such as real estate or collectables. They could also be used to power new types of decentralized applications. The NFTs ecosystem is still in its early stages, with a limited number of blockchains supporting them. The most popular NFTs platforms today are EOS, Ethereum and Wax.
NFTs work by allowing users to trade items that are not necessarily related to each other but are instead unique and identifiable. This makes them perfect for use in gaming applications, where players can exchange virtual assets between themselves without worrying about duplicating or losing them. NFTs also allow people to trade these assets without depositing them in a bank account or trusting that they will be safe. Additionally, NFTs provide a new way of creating digital scarcity.
What can be done with NFTs?
There are already a number of companies that are using NFTs to revolutionize their business model, and there is no doubt that they will continue to do so in the future. Here are some things that can be done with NFTs:
NFTs could be used to represent unique assets. For example, a company could create an NFT for every item it sells, allowing customers to trade and own these assets individually. This would give customers more control over their belongings and make it easier to track who has what.
NFTs could be used as payments systems. For example, a business could use them to pay its employees in the future or reward customers for loyalty. This would help reduce reliance on traditional payment methods (like cash) and keep transactions secure and private.
NFT securities trading platforms are quickly emerging as a key way for investors to gain exposure to this new market. The Atomic Hub platform (https://wax.atomichub.io/) allows users to trade NFTs with each other on a peer-to-peer basis. This allows users to access the widest range of NFTs possible, while also providing transparency and security features.

Art Journaling, preserving memories, and my favorite little travel journal - part 4 of 4.
It's here, it's here! I got back from my trip to Paris and Morocco early October, and finally have a moment to document the essence of what I experienced on the trip.
I believe in taking photos of the landscape, people, places, and inspiration pieces to capture what I'm seeing during my travels. By using my art journal, I am able to capture my impressions, inspirations and even what I'm feeling each day. This is is even more powerful for me.
I used a small journal with thick pages that could absorb watercolor, ink pens, paint pens, and plenty of ephemera and washi tape. Materials used: torn paper, ephemera, glue stick, washi tape, gel pens, watercolors, magazine images, maps, street posters, business cards, feathers.
This video is captured from my Instagram feed as I am learning to edit and post videos here, there & everywhere. My hubby filmed it in "Time Lapse" on my iPhone, it was edited in "Flipagram", then posted to "Instagram" for this 15 second clip.

RIP: Sex Pistols Svengali Malcolm McLaren Dead At 64
by: PhawkerPosted on: April 8, 2010 November 10, 2022
BBC: Malcolm McLaren, the former manager of punk group the Sex Pistols, has died in New York, aged 64, his agent has said. McLaren, the ex-partner of designer Vivienne Westwood, was believed to have been diagnosed with cancer a while ago. He set up a clothes shop and label with Westwood on London's King's Road in the 1970s and was later a businessman and performer in his own right. His agent told the BBC McLaren passed away on Thursday morning. Spokesman Les Malloy said he expected McLaren's body to be returned to the UK before it is buried in Highgate Cemetery. He said McLaren died at his home after his condition suddenly got worse. He said the artist's family was "devastated" and "in shock" and said: "He had been doing very well, it's a sad day. I have spoken to his partner." McLaren also managed a number of other bands, including the New York Dolls and Bow Wow Wow before producing his own records including the much-sampled track Double Dutch from the 1983 album Duck Rock. McLaren emerged from art school in the 1960s and with Westwood, set up Let It Rock – a fashion store specialising in rubber and leather fetish gear. It was later, infamously, renamed "Sex" and he and Westwood defined punk fashion. MORE
RELATED: In his nearly four decades as a vanguard of pop culture, Malcolm McLaren has worn many hats: musician, producer, filmmaker, impresario, fashion designer, reality TV star. At age 63, the punk progenitor is adding another discipline to his resume: visual artist. "Shallow 1-21," a series of 21 short video works that combine snips of obscure 1960s sex films with musical "cut-ups" by McLaren, is on view at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts through Jan. 3. It's the first time the 86-minute piece is being shown in its entirety in the U.S. The 21 segments — only four of which include nudity — consist of just a few frames of film, slowed down and repeated to match the length of each piece of music. Depending on the music and the scene, the moving portraits in "Shallow" can feel wistful, sad, threatening, banal, hypnotic, lusty, even comical. "Shallow 4" is a single back-and-forth pan of three bored, slouching women on a long couch accompanied by a raging cover of Jimi Hendrix's "Foxy Lady" by Chinese all-girl punk band The Wild Strawberries. "Shallow 5" pairs Captain and Tennille's "Love Will Keep Us Together" and Joy Division's "Love Will Tear Us Apart" with a repeating shot of a topless woman descending a staircase, dragging a fur coat behind her. Sex has been a recurrent theme in McLaren's creative career. MORE

Celiac Disease (CD)-Market Insights, Epidemiology and Market Forecast-2023
Jul 2017 67 DelveInsight ASDR-295977
Published: Jul 2017 - Pages : 67 - Publisher : DelveInsight - Report code : ASDR-295977
DelveInsight's "Celiac Disease (CD)- Market Insights, Epidemiology and Market Forecast-2023" report provides an overview of the disease and global market size of the Celiac Disease for the 6MM (United States and EU5 countries (France, Germany, Italy, Spain and UK)). It also includes global historical and forecasted epidemiological data for the diagnosed prevalent cases of Celiac Disease from 2013-2023.
Celiac disease is a genetic autoimmune disease where the indigestion of gluten leads to damage in the small intestine. The number of ways celiac disease can affect patients, combined with a lack of training in medical schools and primary care residency programs, contributes to the poor diagnosis rate. Currently it is estimated that 80% of the celiac disease population remains undiagnosed. Prevalence in Western Europe and in the United States ranges between 1 in 250 and 1 in 133. It is higher in relatives of people with celiac disease. Women are affected more commonly than men, but there is no age predilection. DelveInsight forecasts predict that the total prevalent cases of Celiac Disease is expected to accentuate up to 4.69 Million by 2023 at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 0.46% from 2013-2023 while the diagnosed prevalent population of Celiac Disease in the 6MM shall grow at a CAGR of 0.15% for the forecast period (2013-2023).
There is no targeted therapy approved for celiac disease. The current standard of care treatment involves a gluten free diet (GFD). Steroids and immunosuppressants are used to reduce symptoms in severe cases. Owing to the expected launch of Larazotide Acetate (Innovate Pharmaceuticals) in 2021 followed by the launch of Latiglutenase (ImmunogenX/Abbvie) in 2023, shall lead to a hike in the otherwise stable, worldwide market size of celiac disease. DelveInsight estimates suggest that the global market size is expected to grow at a CAGR of 19% from 2013-2023.
The report is built using data and information sourced from proprietary databases, primary and secondary research and in-house Forecast model analysis by Publisher team of industry experts.
Report covers the disease overview including pathophysiology, symptoms, diagnosis, disease management, and current treatment options.
It focuses on the detailed historical and forecasted number of total prevalent cases as well as diagnosed prevalent cases of Celiac Disease for 6MM from 2013-2023.
The Report also includes historical and forecasted Market size of Celiac Disease for 6MM from 2013 to 2023.
It provides the information of available marketed therapies, including off-label biologics, patent and exclusivity details.
The report also focuses on the details of pipeline drugs in the pivotal stage of development including their SWOT Analysis and expected launch date, which shall help to predict the impact of those drugs on the market size in the near future.
