1630 The Seven Deadly Sins by George Glover (1625-1635) + a little fashion!
In the Book of Proverbs 6:16-19, among the verses traditionally associated with King Solomon, it states that the Lord specifically regards "six things the Lord hateth, and 7 that are an abomination unto Him:"
Tableau de mission François Marie Balanant. An allegorical image depicting the human heart subject to the seven deadly sins, each represented by an animal (clockwise: toad = avarice; snake = envy; lion = wrath; snail = sloth; pig = gluttony; goat = lust; peacock = pride).
In AD 590, a little over 2 centuries after Evagrius wrote his list, Pope Gregory I revised this list to form the more common Seven Deadly Sins.
Beginning in the early 14C, the popularity of the Seven Deadly Sins brought them to become a theme among European artists.

The value of life is not in its duration but in its donation. The donation of blood and thus, life is the greatest of them all. NSS IIT Roorkee organized a Blood Donation Camp on 13th September 2015 at IIT Roorkee Hospital, giving the students of IIT Roorkee a chance to do so themselves.
The camp began at 9 AM with inauguration by Prof. Pradipta Banerjee, Director IIT Roorkee and Dr. D.K.Nauriyal, DOSW. IMA Blood Bank Dehradun, Himalayan Hospital Blood Bank, and Roorkee Civil Hospital, jointly handled the blood collection. The process designed by these blood banks was very quick and quite simple for donors to follow. Donors had to first fill out the form of the respective blood bank. The haemoglobin level of the donors was checked and blood was collected in allotted wards thereafter. The donors were then allowed to relax for a few minutes and provided with refreshments.The donors were also given a memento and a certificate of donation as a token of appreciation.
For many of the donors, this was their first blood donation and it was a very memorable experience for them. "Every suitable person should donate blood, not under coercion of someone but by following their own conscience." said Dr. Smita Jha, Program Coordinator of NSS IIT Roorkee. The will to donate blood shown by the students was not deterred even in the scorching sun during the afternoon hours. The members of NSS worked hard in organizing this event.
A positive feedback had been received from all the donors, even after waiting in a long queue to donate blood. Many of them took pictures as a memory of this event. The camp eventually concluded at 5 pm and all the donors left with a feeling of happiness and satisfaction.
A new institute record of 1002 units of blood donated was made as a result of the promotions done and awareness created since a few days as well as the resolve of the donors. The staff of the blood banks congratulated the organizing team as their efforts towards the event were successful.


Nearly 20 years after its beginnings, the EGNOS system has closed its development phase with official authorization of its use for civil-aviation landings in Europe, including, on 17 October in Santander airport, implementation of the first operational EGNOS landing system in Spain.
EGNOS was born from a mutually held and coordinated vision in Europe, bringing together in a common endeavor civil-aviation organizations and service providers such as the Spanish Airport and Air Navigation Authority (AENA), Eurocontrol, the European Space Agency and Europe's aerospace industry as a whole at the start of the nineties.
The project posed an enormous challenge. Satellite navigation applications in Europe at that time were in a very inchoate state, with a lot to learn and everything to do. Far removed from today's situation when GPS is a household word and the news that it is to be used for landing aircraft is less likely to be received as a surprising breakthrough than spark off comments like "about time too; I've had it in my car for years".
But back in the mid-nineties the situation was very different. Only a few industries or institutions in Europe had developed any professional experience in GPS applications. GMV was one of the few trailblazing satellite navigation firms, in which a set of Spanish engineers, very young back then, drew on all their courage, ambition and a touch of foolhardiness to leave their mark in an industrial field still to be developed but with the brightest future.
Right from the word go, the road towards today's EGNOS has been long, difficult and tortuous. GMV engineers, together with many others in Spain and the rest of Europe, participated in initial system definitions and contributed in the various design phases to shape the system's features into those we know today.
GMV, rising to the challenge like few others, took on responsibility for the design, development and certification of the Central Processing Facility Processing Set (CPFPS), often dubbed the "heart" of the EGNOS System since it calculates in real time all information allowing users to exploit the advantages of the EGNOS service, together with a whole series of associated elements supporting the validation and analysis of system performance at all levels.
In hard figures EGNOS represents for GMV a cumulative contract value of over 60 million euros to date, with a working team that peaked at over 50 people in GMV alone. Even today we still have about 20 engineers working full time on system maintenance and tweaks. But EGNOS's present is by no means at loggerheads with its future. We are already working on a new development designed to fine-tune system performance and operation in the short term, up to 2020. Europe is already moving towards a new EGNOS generation, capable of integrating with the Galileo constellation and exploiting new transmission frequencies for providing services with even stricter standards of safety, dependability and precision. GMV itself is making a big R&D effort to steal a march on this future development and gird our loins for the upcoming challenges.
A lot has happened in these last 20 years. We young engineers of back then are no longer so young. Many setbacks, a few coups, some sleepless nights, many moments of depression and some of euphoria, but at the end of the day EGNOS is here and it's here to stay. System operation is now spreading and is bound to bring in important benefits for civil aviation in Europe, boosting the efficiency and safety of air navigation.
And GMV's new generation of young engineers working on EGNOS are no less courageous or ambitious than those of 20 years ago. And the future is now in their hands. Mind you, we trust they'll be slightly less foolhardy … or maybe not.

Read so far
Andrea Aghini's popularity in Madeira began with his victorious start in 1992 at the wheels of a glamorous "Deltona" by Martini Racing. A televised split off the road, the following year, also contributed to his fame. The Italian driver has always been very fast racing on the roads of the island and would manage to obtain another three titles in 1994, on a Toyota Celica, in 1998, with a Toyota Corolla WRC and also in 2002, on a Peugeot 206 WRC. Being a winning record holder, he was the only one to achieve, in 1994, the feat of winning all of the edition's special stages.
Currently at 56 years old, Aghini started racing in 1983 on a Autobianchi A112. In 1987 he drove a Peugeot 205 GTi and took part of the french brand's team in his country between 1988 and 1991 at the wheel of the 309 GTi and 405 Mi16 models. Captured the attention of Lancia whose colours he defended in 1992, the same year in which he obtained his only victory at the WRC, and, again, in 1993. He was later involved with the Grifone team with a Toyota and Procar, with a Subaru. He has raced in the most varied models, regularly, up to 2011 and appeared, for the last time, in 2017 and 2018.

Technology is dynamically changing the way the healthcare industry works. Watch out the top five digital transformation trends in healthcare.
Technology pretty much touches all facets of mankind. But the most positive impacts of technology are evidently visible in the healthcare industry.
Over the decades, technology has seeped into every aspect of healthcare, literally transforming the industry digitally.
From patient registration to smart diagnosis and self-care tools, the healthcare sector has transformed magically; and with time, it's only getting a notch higher.
Here are the top five trends in healthcare that are leading to a massive digital transformation.
We've come a long way from providing standard, generic medicine to now offering personalized medicine. The development of personalized medical treatments lies on the fact that each individual carries unique genes and therefore our diseases may have varied characteristics. This revolution in life sciences has been possible because of genomics and advanced analytics, creating a strong way to fight rare diseases.
The advancements in telecommunication have led to the breakthrough concept of telemedicine. Telemedicine is the remote delivery of healthcare services like assessment or consulting without meeting the patient in person. It's a convenient and quick way to avail healthcare at home through telecommunication channels. By 2021, the global telemedicine market is expected to grow significantly.
The increasing use of mobile applications and cloud technology in delivering healthcare services is enhancing accessibility for patients and medical professionals. Mobile applications allow patients to access reports, monitor health and communicate with professionals at any given hour. Hospitals are moving to cloud storage solutions to store patient records, medical reports and other critical information. Mobility and cloud are reducing significant operational costs for healthcare enterprises.
Wearable technology is taking over the healthcare industry in multiple ways. From fitness bands to smart watches and headbands, people are widely using wearable devices to effectively track and maintain their fitness. Also, medical professionals, especially surgeons, are adopting wearable devices like surgery goggles to help them clearly understand CT or X-Ray images. Wearables are the new face of modern healthcare and are expected to spread out even farther in the near future.
Healthcare enterprises are making use of artificial intelligence to catch up with the growing trends of the 21st century. AI-powered chatbots and virtual assistants enable round the clock communication with patients and ensure improved customer interaction. Additionally, artificial intelligence also plays a major role in accurate diagnosis of diseases and better clinical documentation.
We've reached an era where technology is the power. Sooner or later, all businesses and all industries will transform digitally. Healthcare is one of the major industries to have undergone a sea change with technology advancements. These five digital transformation trends are ruling the healthcare industry today and are completely reinventing the way healthcare is provided globally.

Suchovod je požární potrubí, které není trvale připojené na vodovodní síť. Obvykle je součástí požárního zabezpečení výškových budov. Při požárním zásahu pak nahrazuje požární vedení hadicemi a zkracuje tak dobu potřebnou k zahájení zásahu. V případě požáru je suchovod napojen na čerpadlo požárního automobilu a v patře, kde je požár, jsou vedeny pouze útočné proudy od suchovodu.

Nejčastěji je možno setkat se se suchovodem zazděným do technologické šachty budovy. U nízkých budov je možné nalézt požární žebřík se suchovodem k dopravě hasiva na střechu.

Q: How to ensure a global variable is explicitly set to some value at runtime? Suppose there is a global variable defined in a C source file. The global variable is used by functions defined in the source file (but not functions in other source files). This source file does not contain main().
Is three a way to make sure the global variable must be explicitly set to some value before any function in this source file is called?
One way is to initialize this global variable to a illegal value in this source file. Then, when it is used, check whether it is legal or not. If it is illegal, then it means that it has not been initialized.
But I am not sure if this is a best way. Could anybody let me know what are the common ways to ensure a global variable are properly initialized?

A: Global variables (i.e. those defined at file scope) are always initialized.  If an explicit initializer is given, it is initialized to that value at program startup.  If there is no explicit initializer, it is implicitly set to 0 (or NULL if a pointer) at startup.
However, I suspect that you're using the term "initialized" loosely here and really mean "explicitly set to some value at runtime".  If that's the case, then you would need to initialize that variable to some invalid value (i.e. one outside the range of what the application would expect), then whenever you use it check to see if it's that invalid value.

A: Simply declare and initialize the variable right after you import all the necessary
header files

A: Generally you should avoid global variables.
A typical pattern to use instead is to put your global variables in a struct called a context, and then make all functions that would have been dependent on the global variables take an opaque pointer to that struct as an argument.  This implicitly defines a contract with callers that they must acquire the context first, and the act of acquiring the context would involve allocate and initialize it.
For example:
typedef struct
{
    int someVariable;
} foo_context;

foo_context* init_foo_context(void)
{
    foo_context* ctx = malloc(sizeof *ctx);
    if (ctx != null)
    {
        ctx->someVariable = 42;
    }
    return ctx;
}

void free_foo_context(foo_context* ctx)
{
    free(ctx);
}

void some_function(foo_context* ctx, int someArg)
{
    assert(ctx != null);

    // ...
}

If you don't need to be so fancy because the typical problems associated with global variables won't ever be relevant to you, then you could hide initialization of your global variable behind a function that sets a flag.  That would be equivalent to initializing your global variable to a sentinel value but is slightly more general since there might not always be an appropriate sentinel value to use.
static bool initialized = false;
static int someGlobal;

void initialize_foo(void)
{
  someGlobal = 42;
  initialized = true;
}

void some_function(int someArg)
{
    assert(initialized);

    // ...
}

The Director of Public Prosecutions Act Note de bas de page 1 (DPP Act or the Act) established the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP). The DPP Act was designed to strengthen the twin goals of institutional independence and ultimate ministerial accountability.Note de bas de page 2 On one hand, it was intended to enhance integrity in government by statutorily ensuring independence of the prosecution decision-making function from inappropriate political control, direction and influence. It enshrines in legislation the quasi-constitutional principle of independence of the prosecution function from the partisan political process. In this sense, it evokes the oft-quoted 1924 aphorism of Lord Chief Justice Hewart that "Justice should not only be done but should manifestly and undoubtedly be seen to be done." Note de bas de page 3
At the same time, the DPP Act does not speak of absolute ODPP independence. Because the Attorney General is fully accountable to Parliament for the prosecution function, the Act ensures a measure of oversight for the exercise of prosecutorial discretion.Note de bas de page 4 First, s. 3(3), which outlines the Director of Public Prosecutions' (DPP) duties and functions, provides that the DPP acts "under and on behalf of the Attorney General" . Second, the Attorney General may issue directives in respect of specific prosecutionsNote de bas de page 5 or in respect of prosecutions more generally.Note de bas de page 6 Third, as discussed below, ss. 13–15 of the Act require the DPP to notify the Attorney General about important questions of general interest, and give the Attorney General the power to intervene in proceedings or to assume conduct of prosecutions. In turn, the DPP Act counterbalances the Attorney General's oversight function and safeguards DPP independence from the Attorney General by requiring that the issuance of s. 10 directives and assuming conduct of a prosecution under s. 15 be in writing and made public.
The DPP Act has not changed the Attorney General's historical role as chief law officer of the Crown. The Attorney General retains jurisdiction to prosecute all non- Criminal Code federal offences (except those under the Canada Elections Act Note de bas de page 7) in the provinces and authority to prosecute both Criminal Code and non- Criminal Code offences in the three territories. Moreover, ss. 2(b.1)-(g) of the definition of "Attorney General" in the Criminal Code give concurrent jurisdiction to the Attorney General of Canada to prosecute certain Criminal Code offences including terrorism offences, organized crime offences, fraud, insider trading, and stock market fraud. However, under s. 3(3) of the Act, these powers have been delegated to the DPP, who exercises these general powers "under and on behalf of the Attorney General" independently, subject to directives issued by the Attorney General under s. 10, and subject to the Attorney General's powers to intervene inNote de bas de page 8 or assume conduct ofNote de bas de page 9 criminal proceedings. Because the Attorney General may also defend the constitutionality of federal legislation, the Attorney General may exercise the powers to take charge of a prosecution or intervene and thereby become a party to proceedings as appellant, respondent or, in the case of provincial Criminal Code prosecutions, intervener where the constitutionality of federal legislation is challenged.
It is a core constitutional tenet that the Attorney General, and by extension the DPP, are bound by the principle of independence in respect of the prosecution function.Note de bas de page 10 As the Supreme Court stated in Law Society of Alberta v Krieger :Note de bas de page 11 "It is a constitutional principle in this country that the Attorney General must act independently of partisan concerns when supervising prosecutorial decisions." However, it is quite appropriate for the Attorney General to consult with Cabinet colleagues before exercising his or her powers under the DPP Act in respect of any criminal proceedings. Indeed, sometimes it will be important to do so in order to be cognisant of pan-government perspectives. The Attorney General of England, Sir Hartley Shawcross (later Lord Shawcross) in 1951 best described the proper relationship between the Attorney General and Cabinet colleagues (and now, likewise, between the DPP, his or her designated agents and the departments that administer the statutes):
I think the true doctrine is that it is the duty of an Attorney-General, in deciding whether or not to authorize the prosecution, to acquaint himself with all the relevant facts, including, for instance, the effect which the prosecution, successful or unsuccessful as the case may be, would have upon public morale and order, and with any other considerations affecting public policy.
In order so to inform himself, he may, although I do not think he is obliged to, consult with any of his colleagues in the Government; and indeed, as Lord Simon once said, he would in some cases be a fool if he did not. On the other hand, the assistance of his colleagues is confined to informing him of particular considerations, which might affect his own decision, and does not consist, and must not consist in telling him what that decision ought to be. The responsibility for the eventual decision rests with the Attorney-General, and he is not to be put, and is not put, under pressure by his colleagues in the matter.
Nor, of course, can the Attorney-General shift his responsibility for making the decision on to the shoulders of his colleagues. If political considerations which, in the broad sense that I have indicated, affect government in the abstract arise, it is the Attorney-General, applying his judicial mind, who has to be the sole judge of those considerations.Note de bas de page 12
Since then, federal and provincial Attorneys General in Canada have adopted this statement, often referred to as the "Shawcross principle" .Note de bas de page 13 Similarly, the judiciary has supported these principles,Note de bas de page 14 as have leading authorities on the role of the Attorney General.Note de bas de page 15
The DPP has the power to make binding and final decisions to prosecute offences under federal statutes, stay proceedings or launch an appeal, unless otherwise instructed by the Attorney General under s. 10(1). The notion of DPP independence relates to the prosecutorial decision-making process – and all steps incidental to it.Note de bas de page 16 The DPP is regarded as an independent officer, exercising quasi-judicial responsibilities.Note de bas de page 17 Section 3(3) of the Act enumerates the duties and functions that are delegated to the DPP, which include the authority to:
initiate and conduct federal prosecutions subject to the Attorney General's s. 15 power;
intervene in proceedings that raise a question of public interest that may affect the conduct of prosecutions or related investigations, subject to the Attorney General's s. 14 power;
issue general guidelines to prosecutors;Note de bas de page 18
advise law enforcement agencies on matters related to prosecutions generally and particular investigations that may lead to a prosecution;
communicate with the media and the public on prosecution matters; and
exercise the Attorney General's authority in respect of private prosecutions.
Section 3(3)(g) leaves open the possibility that the Attorney General may delegate additional functions to the DPP.Note de bas de page 19 It provides that the DPP may exercise any other power, duty or function assigned by the Attorney General that is compatible with the Office of the DPP. In relation to the matters set out in s. 3(3), the DPP is accountable to the Attorney General and is the Deputy Attorney General of Canada for the purpose of performing these duties and functions.Note de bas de page 20
In Canada, the investigation and prosecution functions are separate and independent. The courts have affirmed this principle repeatedly.Note de bas de page 21 Indeed, several commissions of inquiry into wrongful convictions, most notably the Royal Commission on the Donald Marshall Prosecution ,Note de bas de page 22 have insisted that a clear line of demarcation be drawn between the two functions. The DPP Act upholds this principle and does not confer on the DPP any investigative powers.Note de bas de page 23 By the same token, the Attorney General cannot direct the DPP to work with the RCMP on a specific investigation. Police are independent from political control and from control by either the Attorney General or the DPP when investigating crime.Note de bas de page 24 In the same manner, the DPP is independent from police in the prosecution function. No investigative agency or investigating body within a government department may instruct the prosecution to pursue or discontinue a particular prosecution or to undertake a specific appeal. These decisions rest solely with the DPP (and his or her delegated agent), subject to the Attorney General's powers under ss. 10 and 15. Although the investigation and prosecution functions are distinct, there is nevertheless a great deal of cooperation and consultation between police, investigative agencies and prosecutors even at the investigative stage.Note de bas de page 25
Given their interconnected responsibilities, an effective relationship between the Attorney General and the DPP is of the utmost importance in ensuring that both can fulfill their important public duties while achieving the legislative goal of an independent, apolitical, and accountable prosecution service. The Attorney General is directly accountable to Parliament, while the DPP is indirectly accountable to Parliament. The DPP is required to report to Parliament annually on its activities through the Attorney General and the DPP may be called to appear before parliamentary committees. Thus, it is crucial that they work in a consultative way so their decisions are fully informed. To ensure prosecutorial independence and accountability, their relationship should be premised on the following principles:
Respect for the independence of the prosecutorial function - By virtue of s. 3(3)(c) and s. 10(2), the Attorney General and the DPP are jointly responsible for establishing general prosecution policy, but the DPP is responsible for the exercises of prosecutorial discretion pursuant to that policy (subject to the Attorney General's residual powers under ss. 10 and 15).
Notification on matters of significant public interest - The vast majority of prosecutorial decision-making and policy development requires no prior notice. However, the DPP should inform the Attorney General when the exercise of his or her duties raises issues that pertain to the Attorney General's functions. Notification in this regard comes within the DPP's duty to inform under s. 13 of the DPP Act,Note de bas de page 26 which is designed to assist the Attorney General in deciding whether or not to issue a directive under s. 10(1), to exercise the authority under s. 14 to intervene in first instance or on appeal, or under s. 15 to assume carriage of a prosecution. Additionally, quite apart from the aforementioned DPP Act powers, the Attorney General must be adequately briefed on prosecutorial decisions that are expected to generate significant public interest in order to report to Parliament on the manner in which the prosecution function is exercised in his or her name.Note de bas de page 27
In the same vein, the Attorney General consults with the DPP on policy, legislative or litigation matters which may have a significant impact on prosecutions or police powers. It is understood that consultations with prosecutors from both provincial and federal prosecution services can provide crucial practical perspective on criminal law policy issues.
Periodic meetings and discussions -The Attorney General and the DPP are to meet on a regular basis to discuss prosecution-related issues. It is particularly important that this occur with respect to issues which may be the subject of policy directivesNote de bas de page 28 that have a broad operational impact. The DPP Act does not specify a frequency of meetings between the DPP and the Attorney General.Note de bas de page 29 This allows for flexibility to suit the particular working relationship of successive DPPs and the Attorneys General.
Section 3(3) of the DPP Act sets out most of the duties and functions of the DPP.Note de bas de page 30 It provides that those duties and functions will be performed "under and on behalf of" the Attorney General, without further defining the words "under and on behalf of" . What this connotes is that the DPP is independent from influence in the decision-making process related to the prosecution function. However, the DPP has only the powers, duties and functions conferred by statute, he or she is accountable to the Attorney General, and, in turn, the Attorney General remains answerable to Parliament for the DPP's activities.
Prosecutorial decision-making must take place independently of the interests of the government of the day.Note de bas de page 31 The historical practice of successive Attorneys General of Canada has been to refrain from becoming involved in the day-to-day operational decision making of public prosecutions. In recognition of the Attorney General's powers of superintendence, s. 10 of the DPP Act allows the Attorney General to issue directives on the initiation or conduct of any specific prosecution,Note de bas de page 32 and with respect to prosecutions generally.Note de bas de page 33
Section 10 is one of the hallmarks of independence of the prosecution function.Note de bas de page 34 To safeguard the DPP's independence, s. 10 requires that directives respecting specific prosecutions and respecting prosecutions generally be in writing and published in the Canada Gazette . Mandatory publication of the directive assures transparency, and enables the Attorney General to be accountable for his or her decisions. Ultimately, this requirement for transparency serves as a strong deterrent against partisan political influence and pressure in prosecution-related decision-making. These directives are not intended to have the force of law and are exempt from review by Parliament's Standing Joint Committee for the Scrutiny of Regulations.Note de bas de page 35
The power to issue directives has been exercised sparingly in other jurisdictions in which this power exists.Note de bas de page 36 Such a situation may arise, for example, where there is disagreement between the DPP and the Attorney General as to whether to proceed with certain types of prosecutions or whether to appeal in a particular case, based on divergent assessments of what the public interest demands in the particular circumstances of that case.
Section 11(1) authorizes both the Attorney General and the DPP to delay publication of a directive in a specific prosecution in the interests of the administration of justice. This measure of flexibility recognizes that occasionally the publication rule may have to yield to operational exigencies, for example, to ensure the integrity of an ongoing investigation or to avoid a negative impact on prosecutions or other proceedings that are still before the courts. This delay may not continue beyond the completion of the prosecution or any related prosecution.Note de bas de page 37
Under s. 13 of the DPP Act, the DPP has a duty to "inform the Attorney General in a timely manner of any prosecution, or intervention that the DPP intends to make, that raises important questions of general interest." Note de bas de page 38 This duty is fundamental to the relationship between the Attorney General and the DPP, since the Attorney General may use such information in deciding whether to issue a directive under s. 10, to intervene in proceedings under s. 14,Note de bas de page 39 or to assume conduct of a prosecution under s. 15.
Although the Act sets out no corresponding duty on the part of the Attorney General, it is essential to a properly functioning relationship that information flow in both directions. For example, many civil cases raise constitutional, evidentiary or privilege issues which can have an important impact on the prosecution practice of the DPP.
As the chief legal advisor to Cabinet and to the Government of Canada, the Attorney General has a broad perspective concerning the development of all aspects of law including matters that fall under the Criminal Code and other federal penal statutes. The legal challenges facing the Government of Canada are complex and multi-dimensional in nature. Their resolution requires that they be viewed through many lenses – whether policy, aboriginal, strategic, division of powers, or the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms (Charter), to name but a few. As a result, the Attorney General may seek to intervene in criminal litigation, particularly if there is a constitutional challenge to federal laws.Note de bas de page 40
Section 14 of the DPP Act gives the Attorney General the power, after notifying the DPP, to intervene in proceedings at first instance or on appeal that, in his or her opinion, raise questions of "public interest" .Note de bas de page 41 In theory, the Attorney General may intervene in prosecutions conducted by the DPP in order to present different views on an issue, for example proceedings that raise issues of informer privilege, broader issues of police conduct or cases that raise both Charter and division-of-powers issues. However, such interventions in federal prosecutions would be rare, in light of the power to take charge of a prosecution.Note de bas de page 42
The DPP, or the Attorney General, may wish to intervene in a provincial matter. Typically the DPP, or Attorney General of Canada, will intervene in a provincial matter to support the province, since such federal interventions often involve challenges to the constitutionality of Criminal Code provisions. Like the ODPP, provincial prosecution services prosecute matters only where the prosecution is considered to be in the "public interest" . On occasion, however, in view of the multifarious considerations that may come into play in a given case, the two levels of government may assess public interest considerations differently or the federal government may consider it important to advance a particular argument as intervener that may not be advanced by the provincial appellant.Note de bas de page 43
The Attorney General and the DPP cannot both intervene in a case prosecuted by a provincial Attorney General. Section 3(3)(b) of the DPP Act provides that the DPP can intervene unless the Attorney General has decided to intervene. Section 13 imposes a positive duty on the DPP to give advance notice, in a timely manner, of interventions that the DPP intends to make. Moreover, as a practical matter, most interventions at first instance or on appeal result from Notices of Constitutional Question (NCQ). By statute or by court rules,Note de bas de page 44 an applicant who intends to challenge the constitutional validity or applicability of a particular piece of federal legislation or regulation, a common law rule or to claim a remedy under s. 24(1) of the Charter in relation to an act or omission of a federal government institution, must serve a NCQ on the Attorney General.Note de bas de page 45 Thus, in effect, the Attorney General essentially has a "right of first refusal" in deciding whether or not to intervene in cases prosecuted by a provincial Attorney General.
Section 15 of the DPP Act sets out the power of the Attorney General to take over a prosecution from the DPP. However, the Attorney General must first consult the DPP regarding his or her decision to assume conduct of a prosecution and must publish the notice in the Canada Gazette "without delay" ,Note de bas de page 46 unless either the Attorney General or the DPP considers a delay in notice to be justified "in the interests of the administration of justice" .Note de bas de page 47 The DPP must turn over the prosecution file to the Attorney General, where the latter assumes conduct of the case, and must provide any information that the Attorney General requires within the time specified by the Attorney General (s. 15(2)).
Section 15 reflects the fact that the Attorney General retains his or her criminal law related powers under the DPP Act. The foregoing power, like the power to issue directives, is one which is to be exercised sparingly in order to preserve the independence of the DPP.Note de bas de page 48 Nevertheless, s. 15 recognizes that the Attorney General is ultimately accountable to Parliament for federal prosecutions. Accordingly, there must be a residual capacity in the Attorney General to ensure that decisions are taken in the public interest.
Section 16 of the DPP Act requires the DPP to provide the Attorney General with an annual report not later than June 30 of every year. The Attorney General is then required to table that report in the Houses of Parliament within the first 15 sitting days immediately following receipt of the report. The DPP's annual report to Parliament is a key mechanism for ensuring transparency and public accountability for federal prosecutions. The report is required to provide a summary of the DPP's activitiesNote de bas de page 49 of the year in review, and usually contains a review of the anticipated legal challenges and priorities for the future, and how public money was expended in carrying out the DPP's duties and functions.
Some offences in the Criminal Code and in other federal statutes can be prosecuted only with the prior consent of the Attorney General on whose behalf the prosecution will be conducted.Note de bas de page 50 By virtue of s. 3(4) of the DPP Act, the DPP is Deputy Attorney General for the purpose of exercising the bulk of prosecution-related duties, functions and powers, which are set out in s. 3(3).Note de bas de page 51 The principal significance of s. 3(4) is that it brings into play s. 2 of the Criminal Code which defines the Attorney General to include the Deputy Attorney General. Additionally, s. 3(3)(a) delegates to the DPP, as Deputy Attorney General, the Attorney General's power to initiate and conduct prosecutions. Thus, ordinarily, decisions statutorily requiring the "personal consent in writing" of the Attorney General or Deputy Attorney General, will be made by the DPP, being the Deputy Attorney General for the functions set out in s. 3(3)(c) of the DPP Act.

See the PPSC Deskbook guideline "2.1 Independence and Accountability in Decision-Making" .
See R v Logiacco (1984), 11 CCC (3d) 374 (Ont CA).
Section 3(5) exempts from the requirements of the Statutory Instruments Act any guidelines the DPP issues under s 3(3)(c). As such, these guidelines need not be approved by a Parliamentary committee.
For example, the Attorney General assigned to the DPP the responsibility of developing a set of best practices for prosecuting fraud involving governments (21 February 2007), the power, duty or function to conduct prosecutions the Attorney General of Canada is authorized to undertake under agreements with the provincial Attorneys General and to conduct, on the authority of provincial Attorneys General, prosecutions and related proceedings, including appeals, of charges that fall under the exclusive prosecutorial authority of the province (i.e., major-minor agreements) (21 February 2007), and the responsibility of administering the National Fine Recovery Program including initiating and conducting proceedings to enforce the collection of outstanding federal fines (20 September 2007). Other examples of the types of other duties or functions that could be assigned include special inquiries into prosecution-related issues, issue-driven forums with provincial, territorial or international prosecution agencies regarding prosecution-related issues, or reports on the prosecutorial impacts of policy initiatives.
See DPP Act, supra note 1, s 3(4). Note, however, that where the Attorney General intervenes in a proceeding under s 14 or assumes conduct of a federal prosecution under s 15, the Deputy Minister of Justice assumes the role of Deputy Attorney General in respect of those matters.
See, notably, the Supreme Court of Canada decisions in Krieger, supra note 11; Regan, supra note 11; and R v Beaudry , 2007 SCC 5, [2007] 1 SCR 190.
Marshall Inquiry, supra note 15.
This separation of investigation and prosecution functions is reinforced by s 3(3)(d) which states that the DPP "advises law enforcement agencies or investigative bodies in respect of prosecutions generally or in respect of a particular investigation that may lead to a prosecution" .
In R v Campbell , [1999] 2 SCR 956, the Supreme Court of Canada affirmed that police officers are not government functionaries or agents of the Crown in performing law enforcement duties and cannot be directed by the executive to investigate or not investigate someone.
See the PPSC Deskbook directive "1.3 Consultation within Government" and the PPSC Deskbook guideline "2.7 Relationship between Crown Counsel and Investigative Agencies" .
Consultation between the PPSC and the Department of Justice generally is dealt with in the PPSC Deskbook directive "1.3 Consultation within Government" , ibid; see also the PPSC Deskbook directive "1.2 Duty to Inform the Attorney General under section 13 of the Director of Public Prosecutions Act " .
The DPP does not brief the Attorney General on Canada Elections Act matters in light of s 3(8) of the DDP Act, supra note 1 which specifies that the DPP initiates and conducts, on behalf of the Crown, prosecutions with respect to offences under the Canada Elections Act .
In fact, s 10(2) of the DPP Act, supra note 1 requires the Attorney General to consult the DPP prior to issuing directives respecting the initiation or conduct of prosecutions generally.
By contrast, Public Prosecutions Act , SNS 1990, c 21, s 6A requires the Nova Scotia DPP and the Attorney General to meet minimally 12 times per year preferably on a monthly basis.
Pursuant to s 3(8), the Director also conducts on behalf of the Crown prosecutions under the Canada Elections Act ; in this regard see the PPSC Deskbook guideline "2.10 Application of the PPSC Deskbook in Respect of Canada Elections Act Prosecutions" . Pursuant to s 3(9), the Director may also perform work for the Attorney General under the Extradition Act and the Mutual Legal Assistance in Criminal Matters Act ".
See e.g. Krieger, supra note 11.
The provinces of Nova Scotia, Quebec and British Columbia all have similar requirements in their legislation. The same is true of many other jurisdictions that have adopted a Director of Public Prosecutions model.
Section 12 of the DPP Act, supra note 1 makes it clear that the directives issued under s 11 are exempt from the requirements of the Statutory Instruments Act . This exemption means that the directives issued by the Attorney General to the DPP in specific prosecutions and in relation to prosecutions generally need not be approved by a parliamentary committee before they have the force of law.
For example, in British Columbia, previous Attorneys General have issued directives (i) to continue with a murder prosecution rather than accepting a guilty plea to the lesser and included offence of manslaughter, (ii) to appeal a manslaughter sentence, and (iii) to the Assistant Deputy Attorney General directing him to appoint a specified special prosecutor to conduct a charge assessment of alleged polygamy in Bountiful, British Columbia. As of March 31, 2010, The Attorney General of Quebec had issued no such directives to its Director of Public Prosecutions.
See DPP Act, supra note 1, s 11(2).
See the PPSC Deskbook directive "1.2 Duty to Inform the Attorney General under section 13 of the Director of Public Prosecutions Act " , supra note 26.
See the PPSC Deskbook guideline "3.15 Appeals and Interventions in the Provincial and Territorial Courts of Appeal" .
For example, the Attorney General may decide that it is in the public interest to intervene in a prosecution that raises a division of powers issue, or that raises an issue regarding the scope of victims' rights in criminal proceedings, so that the court may have the benefit of hearing the Attorney General's perspective.
Section 14: "When, in the opinion of the Attorney General, proceedings raise questions of public interest, the Attorney General may, after notifying the DPP, intervene in first instance or on appeal."
For a more in depth discussion of interventions, see the PPSC Deskbook guideline "3.15 Appeals and Interventions in the Provincial and Territorial Courts of Appeal" , supra note 39.
See e.g. Robert J. Frater, Prosecutorial Misconduct (Aurora: Canada Law Book, 2009) at 12–13.
Rules of the Supreme Court of Canada , SOR/2002-156 amended by SOR/2006-203, rule 61. Similarly, provincial legislation provides that NCQs must be served on the relevant Attorney General; see e.g. Courts of Justice Act , RSO. 1990, c C-14, s 109; Nova Scotia Rules of Civil Procedure, NS Reg 420/2008, rule 31.19; Constitutional Question Act , RSBC 1996, c 68, s 8; Quebec Code of Civil Procedure, RSQ, c C-25, s 95.
This requirement applies in respect of Supreme Court of Canada, but is not required in all provincial court rules.
Ibid, s 15(3). It is anticipated that delays in publication would be exceptional and would only occur where necessary to protect the confidentiality of proceedings (such as proceedings that might compromise the identity of an informer or an ongoing investigation, especially given that by definition, a prosecution includes a prospective prosecution).

This excludes PPSC activities related to the Canada Elections Act .
See the PPSC Deskbook guideline "3.5 Delegated Decision-Making" .
The Deputy Attorney General's authority to act for the Attorney General is recognized in three ways: 1) specifically, in some statutory provisions (such as Criminal Code , s 577); 2) generally, in s 2 of the Criminal Code , through the definition of "Attorney General" ; and 3) more generally, for all federal legislation, by virtue of s 24(2)(c) of the Interpretation Act .

The friendly-sounding British bobbies, created by Robert Peel in 1829, were the first professional police force, copied by cities around the world.
Organized policing dates back less than 200 years. Until the Industrial Revolution of the early 1800s brought thousands flocking into cities, most crime was combated by the local constabulary with the help of the occasional citizen patrol. As the cities became more crowded, individual companies organized police forces to protect their interests. In England, one of the most prominent was the Thames River Police, created by the powerful West India Trading Company in 1798 to deter thefts along the London wharves.
The Thames River Police, numbering about 80 full-time men, policed by establishing a patrol presence in the London port. The private police force was so effective that Parliament authorized money to add the men to the public payroll. But for the most part the public was suspicious of waves of permanent police roaming the streets. But the plagues of urban ills brought on by surging immigration and mounting poverty began to weigh on Londoners.
It took the vision of 41-year old statesman Robert Peel, later a two-time Prime Minister of England, to establish the world's first permanent police force. In 1829 Peel sponsored the Metropolitan Police Act which passed Parliament. As the founder of the police force, the men on patrol became known popularly as "peelers" or "bobbies." The former nickname faded away and the moniker "bobbies" lives on today.
Much of which Peel created lives on today as well. He believed that the police force should operate from a centrally located headquarters which should be easily accessible to the public. Of prime importance would be recruitment, selection and training of the police force. All "bobbies" would be dressed in proper uniforms and be paid a full-time weekly wage. Peel established a system to determine crime rates to measure the effectiveness of the new force.
The police would be responsible only for crime detection and prevention which would be accomplished by the establishment of regular patrol areas, known as "beats." Historically, police would only show up after a crime had been reported. Peel wanted his men to become familiar figures to the public within specific geographic zones. He reasoned that a conspicuous, known figure would be able to better elicit help from the citizenry in the event of a crime. By becoming familiar with the people and places on his beat, the "bobby" could readily recognize suspicious things out of place and help deter crime. The patrol concept would be universally adopted by police forces the world over. It was Robert Peel's greatest innovation.
To maintain organization among his men on patrol, Peel adopted a paramilitary structure of command. Lacking such a line of command, it would be all too easy for the "bobbies" to lapse into the uncommitted ways of their watchmen predecessors. Peel's men were to be patient, impersonal and, above all, professional.
The Metropolitan Police Act was initially limited to the outer parts of London and did not apply to the mile-square City of London. The "bobbies" were not immediately popular and were often jeered at on patrol. The preventive tactics proved successful, however, and the police force showed skill in handling erupting street riots. Crime prevention was not the only duty of the "bobbies." They kept a lookout for fires. They lit streetlights as they walked the beat. They called out the time.
The public was won over and the police began patrols in the City of London in 1839. Slowly the concept of the police force expanded to rural areas. In 1856 Parliament finally mandated that police forces be established in outlying provinces. By this time police departments were forming in the United States and the rest of the world based on Robert Peel's model.

Testing the Dollar's Breakout
August 12, 2018 $CHF, $EUR, $JPY, $NOK, Turkey
The US dollar surged last week, with the Dollar Index rising 1.25%, the most since April. The dollar is being boosted by two drivers. The first is the policy mix and interest rate divergence. The other is the intensification of pressure on emerging market. Turkey has a disastrous combination of more fundamentals, large short-term foreign currency debt obligations, unorthodox policies, and the lack of credibility. On top of this, Erdogan has antagonized the US when it is keen to flex its muscles.
The lira collapsed 21% last week and as the headlong plunge accelerated risk assets fell out of favor. This included other emerging markets, equities, and peripheral European bonds. It did nothing for gold, which edged lower, extending its drop for a sixth consecutive week. The US provided more fodder by imposing sanctions on three countries last week, a new axis of evil (?)--Russia, Turkey, and Iran.
One of the key questions facing investors is whether Turkey is the canary in the coal mine the way Thailand was in the 1997-1998 Asian Financial Crisis. Recall that that crisis was one in which fixed exchange rate regimes were overwhelmed. That is not an issue now, though as we have seen floating rate adjustments can be quick and sharp as well. Still, a judgment must be made about the likelihood that the intense risk-off mood ahead of the week is sustained. Given the magnitude of bank exposures and the fact it is many investors had hedged and/or reduced exposure to Turkey already, we do not expect the market to be able to sustain the pace we saw at the end of last week. If an attempt to extend the pre-weekend moves in early Asia on Monday falters, then the markets recover.
While our outlook for the dollar remains constructive, it is over-extended. All the major currencies finished last week outside their Bollinger Bands. Momentum traders may try to push further, but we suspect that before the dollar can advance much more, it needs to consolidate its recent gains. The late dollar longs may be in weak hands, but the corrective or consolidative phase need not be deep or long. It is not unusual for the markets to retest the breakout. The liquidation by the momentum players may provide an opportunity for stronger hands of the investment community.
One way to express this view is in the crosses that were driven by the arguably exaggerated risk-off move like euro-Swiss or euro-yen. The euro fell to its lowest level against the Swiss franc since last August near CHF1.1340. To be sure, it is not just erosion of Turkey that weighed on the cross, which fell for the fourth consecutive week, but the dramatic move in the second half of last week saw the euro move three standard deviations from the 20-day moving average. A return to the breakout gives the euro scope for a 1% gain. The euro's decline against the yen also saw it test three standard deviations from the 20-day average.
Another way to express this view is the Norway-yen cross. It already appeared to have begun recovering in the waning hours of last week. The Norges Bank, Norway's central bank meets on August 16. We expect a hawkish hold, insofar as it confirms intentions to hike rates at next month's meeting, a week ahead of the next FOMC meeting and at least a year ahead of the European Central Bank.
There is little doubt among investors that the Fed will hike rates in September. That conclusion suggests that outside of reaction to headlines, investors will look past the data, barring a significant deviation from expectation. US retail sales report may be the most important. Auto and gasoline sales likely slowed from May, but excluding these, retail sales may have risen around 0.4%. The components that are used for GDP calculations also likely rose 0.4% after a flat June report. Sales for this "control group" averaged a 0.5% gain in Q2 after rising by an average of 0.2% in Q1, despite the stagnation of real hourly wages. The average monthly pace in 2017 was 0.4%.
The Atlanta Fed GDPNow says the US economy is tracking 4.3% annualized growth in Q3. The NY Fed tracker suggests 2.6% growth, while the St. Louis Fed's model splits the difference at 3.4%. Other data in the coming days will impact these forecasts, including the first look at August through the Empire and Philly Fed surveys. July Industrial production and manufacturing output are expected to have increased (0.4% and 0.3% respectively) after faster growth in Ju.ne.
Housing starts may attract some attention after the large 12.2% drop in June. Since last October, US housing starts have followed a sawtooth pattern alternating between gains and losses. Housing starts are expected to have risen in July to a 126 mln unit pace. The cyclical peak was set in January a little more than 1.33 mln pace.
Eurozone growth and inflation reports are second looks, even if more color is provided, investors' information set is unlikely to change. That said, there is a reasonable chance that Q2 GDP may be tweaked up to 0.4% from 0.3%. July CPI is expected to confirm the flash readings of 2.1% and 1.1% for the headline and core respectively. The economic data will not distract from discussions of European bank exposures to Turkey.
The direct bank exposures are fairly clear as is industrial and commercial ties. What seems somewhat less transparent is the loan loss reserves put aside or hedges and other offsets that have been employed. The risk-off mood weighed on European peripheral bonds, which despite on the ongoing ECB purchases, continue to act like risk assets. Moreover, Spain and Italy appear headed toward a confrontation with the EC over next year's budget in a few weeks.
The UK reports employment, inflation, and retail sales in the coming days. The reports are not expected to change the general assessment of the UK economy. The unemployment rate and wage growth are forecast to be unchanged. Headline inflation may tick up because of the base effect from 2.4% to 2.5%, but it is likely to be reversed next month plus some as the August 2017 0.6% increase drops out of the comparison. The core rate is expected to be unchanged at 1.9%. Sterling's depreciation may limit this trend but remember the UK's core inflation rate was 2.7% in January. UK retail sales likely recovered from the 0.5% decline in June, but it might simply reflect higher priced motor fuel. Excluding that, retail sales may be flat after a 0.6% fall. An upside surprise likely would be greeted by sterling buyers.
Meanwhile, talk at the end of the week that was overwhelmed by the dollar's surge ahead of the weekend suggested that there may be some light opening in the EC's stand on Brexit. It has been playing hardball and not being particularly flexible, but it is willing to accept the UK's latest proposal to remain in common market for goods, suggesting that the four freedoms are not as inseparable as sometimes presented. However, the price of this may be more than the UK parliament or as some suggest a referendum may agree.
Japan's June industrial output report is of little interest after the country reported stronger growth in Q2 last week (0.5% vs. 0.3% forecast). However, July trade figures may draw some attention. Seasonal factors point to deterioration from June's small (JPY21.4 bln) surplus. It is likely to be the fourth deficit so far this year. Before this year, the last monthly trade deficit was in February 2016. Exports in July likely are around 6.3% higher, but still, less than half the (13.4%) pace seen in July 2017. Imports likely rose about 14.2% year-over-year compared with 16.5% last July.
A combination of factors, including rising nationalism, the inexorable rise of China and India power relationships are in flux. The Trump Administration is an attempt to reassert not so much US leadership but a narrowly defined national interest. Until the confrontation with Turkey over the arrest of an American pastor on the grounds of aiding a terrorist organization (which seems to have a broad definition), the wrath of the administration was directed at economic competitors. This is a different problem that the macroeconomic mess that the Erdogan and his government have created.
The problem is that the Turkish piece on the chessboard on which the Great Powers play was anchored in the West since the birth of NATO and now may be slipping away. For all practical purposes, and against the wishes of the US (at least until 2016) the EU not found a way to let Turkey into its club. Its claims in Cyprus remain unresolved. Its interests in Syria and elsewhere are increasingly diverging from the US. From the cold perspective of political realism, Turkey is a strategic asset that could shift from to a Russia-Iran-Syria bloc.
Market participants may be leery of some off-the-cuff comment by a Trump Administration official, if not the President himself expressing concern in one way or another about the dollar's strength. It is its best level of the year against most of the major and emerging market currencies and JP Morgan Emerging Market Currency Index. The OECD's PPP model puts the euro nearly 17% undervalued and the yen 12%. Sterling is almost 10% undervalued, and the Canadian dollar is a little more than 5% undervalued. Among emerging markets, the Mexican peso is judged more than 100% undervalued, and the South Korea yuan is roughly 29% below PPP.
During parts of a longer-term cycle, currencies are overvalued and undervalued. PPP is the level that currencies gravitate around in the long-run. It is not a short-term guide to fair-value or trading. Focus instead on the macroeconomic drivers and the movement there is still dollar-friendly. Efforts are to pass "tax-reform" 2.0 ahead of the November elections. This package would include making the middle-class tax cuts permanent. There is still some speculation that the administration may tap the oil reserves to release pressure on gasoline prices, but a decision will have to be made soon to prepare and implement a program in enough time to give a fighting chance to lower prices at the pump. Of course, there are many moving parts, and lower oil prices do not always translate into lower gasoline prices.

A country open to all and a struggle for equal rights that continues. Where we do Pride Festivals for and with the whole spectrum of the LGBTIQ community
Sweden is a open country, as LGBTIQ issues are concerned. The seventeen years of Stockholm Pride so far have assisted this development by creating opportunities for many different actors in society to deal with LGBTIQ issues within their respective field of activities.
Similarly, in its years of operation, West Pride has assisted in transforming Gothenburg into the most LGBTIQ-friendly city in Sweden.
A clear voice for the rights of LGBTIQ persons
Sweden is known as a modern and progressive nation and aspires to be a clear voice for the rights of LGBTIQ persons. Pride festivals are organized annually in all larger cities in Sweden, without any of the very difficult problems facing similar events in many other parts of the world. Every year, numerous politicians from various parties visit Pride venues and take part in different activities. There is strong support from the Swedish government for Pride and the wider LGBTIQ movement. In 2014, the Swedish prime minister participated in the Stockholm Pride parade for the first time.
Politics, civil society and LGBTIQ history Sweden is not yet an immaculate paradise for LGBTIQ and queer people; such a place does not exist. There are still things to be done in order to eradicate discrimination, hate crimes and negative attitudes towards LGBTIQ people.
Much progress has been done
However, in recent years much progress has been done with regards to LGBT rights in the legislative field. In 2009, same-sex marriage was legalized after a long political debate. Before this, it had for a long time been possible to register partnership with a legally binding effect. Adoptions by same-sex couples have been legal for several years now.
Since 2009, new anti-discrimination legislation is in place that prohibits discrimination not only on the grounds of sexual orientation, but also gender identity and expressions.
The Swedish LGBTIQ community is thriving, during Pride as well as the rest of the year, especially as NGOs and activist networks, but also as entrepreneurs. Sweden has a long standing tradition of civil society playing an important role in the development of society.
Strong NGOs
RFSL (the Swedish Federation for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender People) was established in 1950 and is the largest LGBTIQ organization in Sweden, with local chapters all over the country. A few years ago, RFSL was acclaimed the best "lobbyist" in the country.
Swedish NGOs are generally strong, and often belong to national and international networks. Within the LGBTIQ community, there are many specialized groups and organizations, such as sports groups, organizations for young people, for elderly people, for people of different political views and for people with interests in different cultural expressions; film, opera, theatre, etcetera. This too creates a community with potential to really make something really big out of a EuroPride.


Rob Liefeld is going back to basics after he introduces his new X-Men character. The creator of Deadpool, Cable, and many more is writing a new story featuring the "Merc with a Mouth," and it's coming right after his run with Major X finishes.
In a book called Deadpool: Badder Blood, Liefeld aims to say the final word on the superhero who never runs out of them. After the hero rode two R-rated movies to box office bounties, it was time for his comic creator to step back into the writer's chair. So Liefeld went on Instagram to make the announcement.
"LAST DANCE!" Liefeld writes. That's not Deadpool: Bad Blood (2017's offering), but even worse. It's pretty standard gun- and swordplay, but there's a little more heft behind those images.
"These are shots from Deadpool: Badder Blood, a project I'll complete right after Major X wraps. This one is both a hoot and a holler and will be my definitive and last word with Deadpool. He begged me to be a part of Major X so I let him play in that sandbox as long as he was nice to others, you definitely won't want to miss that one." With Liefeld teasing Major X more than his final take on his beloved 'Pool, it seems like the former masked hero may have a few more secrets fans will need to suss out.
The first issue of Major X starts Liefeld on his inevitable road back to Deadpool in April.

Breakthrough opened last month, creating the Peninsula's first anger room, though the business model dates back at least a decade in the United States. Where the more widespread phenomenon of escape rooms scratches the itch of customers looking to exercise their minds using logic and problem-solving skills, anger rooms (or rage rooms) offer the opportunity to work out stress using sledge hammers, baseball bats and golf clubs.

To say Hampton Roads has been inundated, swamped, engulfed – pick an active verb – with political ads about the 2nd Congressional District contest probably isn't a clear enough description of what's been happening. If all the airings of 30-second and 15-second spots in the race were broadcast back to back, it would take six full days to see them all.
Debbie Evans Nuttall: What a waste!
Robert S. Griffin: Stop the ads… they don't inform!
In recent weeks, candidates seeking congressional offices in districts representing the Peninsula met with the Daily Press Editorial Board. Those face-to-face meetings were cordial and educational, and they spanned a range of topics including sea level rise, veterans care, the military, the economy and much more.
Jill Davis: The Richmond Times will no longer do candidate endorsements beginning next year. They said they had already committed to do it this year so would follow through.
Mark Anthony Ramirez: As a minority, I'm very tired of being used for political purposes, with the same results over and over again. Democrats use people as pawns, such as the thousands of migrants from Central America (who clearly cannot be offered unvetted entry into the US and will have to manage to get back to where they came from). I'm definitely voting Republican this time.


South Adelaide's senior women will look to maintain their stranglehold on top spot of the SANFL Statewide Super Women's League when they clash with West Adelaide on Saturday night.
The Panthers put themselves a game clear of second after taking down North Adelaide last weekend and can tighten their grip on securing Finals qualification (top 3) with a win under lights at City Mazda Stadium.
Three forced changes will be made to the victorious Round 6 side, with Mykala Walker-Murphy set to miss the trip to Richmond with a back injury, while fellow debutant Czenya Cavouras and tall forward Mollie Mckendrick are unavailable for selection due to commitments made prior to the Club being awarded a SANFLW license.
However, South will be boosted by the return of co-captain Lauren Buchanan, who has overcome a leg injury suffered in Round 5 that made her a late withdrawal against the Roosters.
Also in line for a potential return are forward/ruck Danielle Goding, midfielder Helen Maidment and forward Bronwen Bosley. All of which have been named on an extended interchange.
Young forward Taylah Eastwood could also make her SANFLW debut if she survives the final trimming of the Panthers bench on Saturday afternoon.


VeeCan Systems provides software for PC and PLC for carrying out fire safety measurements in the building industry.
Different building components have different fire safety requirements in order for them to comply with the relevant Building Regulations. Fire safety measurements with VeeCanDAQ are based on EN 1363-1, which defines how to measure the fire safety properties of a building. EN 1363-1 also describes which data must be recorded and reported.
Control of the furnace can, of course, be set to your specific requirements for fire safety measurements. For example, it is possible to let VeeCanDAQ regulate both pressure and temperature during the test.
With fire safety measurements, you can ensure that all building components meet fire resistance requirements. The provisions depend on the type of building, and our software and equipment can be adjusted to your fire safety reporting needs.
Why are fire safety measurements important?
To protect us in case of fire, requirements have been established for e.g. fire safety measurements which manufacturers of building components must follow. Fire safety measurements ensure that all buildings have a high fire resistance. Most people are inside buildings for most of the day. If a fire starts, it is important that fire and smoke do not spread faster than we can get out of the building, just as it should be possible to, hopefully, save the building.
With fire safety measurements and high standards for building components' fire resistance, we can avoid large fires where it is difficult for the authorities to rescue people from the building.
What does the law say about fire safety measurements?
Buildings must be constructed to protect against fire and to stop the fire from spreading to other buildings.
Legislation regarding building components' fire resistance is part of the Building Regulations. In addition, there are requirements for e.g. escape routes and emergency procedures, fire safety installations and measures for preventing fire and smoke from spreading.
ISO 9705: Reaction to fire tests – Room corner test for wall and ceiling lining products – Part 1: Test method for a small room configuration.
EN 14390: Fire test – Large-scale room reference test for Surface products.
EN 13823: Reaction to fire tests for building products – Building products excluding floorings exposed to the thermal attack by a single burning item.

Q: Unable to edit ribbon to display custom tabs on Word 2013
I have been trying to customize the ribbon with more options like smart tool tabs, chart tool tabs, add-ins, blog post etc. But the only tabs that appear on the ribbon are view and developer. Anything after that won't appear on the ribbon at all. Any help would be appreciated as I have tried everything possible. The version of Office I am using is Office Standard 2013. I have already tried the options in a similar question, but the problem is that it doesn't create a grouping which I expect would be created if I use Customize the Ribbon option.
