Tyler Askew & crowd @ Loving Day Flagship Celebration – 6/7/09 (Willie Davis)
I haven't been out dancing yet this week, but still have plenty to tell you about last weekend, specifically Sunday and how it's turning into my favorite day to get down. Things began a little out of the ordinary, trekking over to 23rd and the FDR for the Loving Day celebration (of the Supreme Court case Loving v. Virginia which legalized interracial marriage in the US, which happened not too long ago in 1967!). The vibe was great – everyone just looked happy and was hanging out. Unfortunately not many were dancing to the great soulful, jazzy, housey set Tyler Askew was playing. I'm going to blame it on the massive line that had formed for the free BBQ being given out. In any case, I got down with a small group of strangers and learned more about Loving v Virginia which you can do here as well as learn about throwing your own Loving Day celebration.
Luke Solomon @ Sunday Best @ the BKLYN Yard – June 7, 2009 (cloud_city)
From there things picked up in terms of dancing. I headed down to the Gowanus yet again for Sunday Best. It was slightly less packed than it was for Mr. Scruff – still quite a crowd. I'm not sure how they did it, but food & drink lines were pretty much nonexistent and the bathroom one is still there, but much shorter. There were all the makings of a great Sunday as Luke Solomon started his set around 7, following through with 2 great hours of an interesting blend of house, soul, techno, and even hints of tech-house that had the tiny dancefloor overflowing with people. You can download his set at the top of this post, and check out other past sets from Sunday Best here, or better yet, subscribe to the podcast via iTunes or RSS.
I was perfectly happy by the end of Sunday Best and could have just gone home…but the Lower East Side is just so close thanks to the F-train, so I headed to the Rivington Hotel for Été d'Amour with Tony Humphries. The penthouse was packed with people dancing when I arrived, as it had been for Dimitri's set the weekend prior. Unfortunately it didn't last long. After hanging out on the roof for an hour or so it dawned on me that I couldn't hear the music at all. The sound only improved slightly one flight down, and by the time I was back on the main penthouse level I realized something was very wrong. The volume was way down thanks to someone complaining…so frustrating as Tony's set was great, just not loud enough! I've been assured that this week things will be under control for Stretch Armstrong's set, but more on that in a bit. First here is what's going on Saturday (6/13):
— SATURDAY (6/13) —
Ninja Tune is in town again! After a great set from Mr. Scruff two weeks ago, the label is back doing a showcase at Studio B as part of the Northside Festival. Get a feel for the label with sets from Daedelus (whose album Love To Make Music To has been praised all over the internet), Poirier (who has been tearing up Montreal with his Soca sounds) , and Megasoid (described as "rap-influenced big-synth remix music"). If you don't have a badge and want to check out the show you can get tickets here. Download Ghislain Poirier's mix from Sinden's radio show a few weeks ago at the top of this post. Tracklisting below:
Ghislain Poirier – In the Mix on Sinden's Kiss FM radio show 5/21/09 tracklisting
Poirier – Wha-La-La-Leng feat. Face-T
Major Lazer – Hold The Line (Poirier Remix)
Poirier – Karnival
Silverlink – The Message Is Love feat. Jammer & Badness (acapella)
Alison Hinds – Soca Nation (Poirier Remix)
Poirier – Get Crazy feat. Mr. Slaughter
Skinny Fabulous – My Girl feat. Mr. Vegas
Emvee – Glitch (Bonjay's Feisty Rub)
You might have noticed in the tracklisting that Poirier recently remixed Major Lazer who happen to be playing SOB's on Saturday night. More info and some downloads here.
Another event that looks really interesting and is part of Northside is And Everyone Laughed:
Times are tough, and the circus is struggling. On June 13th a pack of weary carnival artists will mount one final, hysterical production in an attempt to bring a smile to the face of a frowning nation. And Everyone Laughed, presented by Smirk and BabyBunny, is a one-night-only musical circus…With the musical stylings of Wolf + Lamb, Jakub Alexander, Worst Friends, Nicolas Jaar, Trus'me (Prime Numbers | Manchester, UK), Freetime, and Onno and video and performance art curated specifically for the event, guests will find themselves both viewer and subject in a non-sequitor exploration of circus and its players.The event explores themes of fear, laughter, and love while slowly and steadily breaking down the fourth wall in a self-reflexive public performance akin to the "happenings" of the 1960's.
Admission is $13 before 11, $20 after, half of which will benefit the Streb dance school.
There's also another benefit happening Saturday night in Brooklyn:
There is another great-looking loft party, also happening in Brooklyn on Saturday night. This one is a benefit for Union Docs:
It's well known that arts organizations across the country have been struggling financially. In New York State alone, funding has been drastically cut for NYSCA supported arts organizations.
Which is why UnionDocs is presenting the "We All Benefit Loft Party Series", featuring monthly installments of benefit loft jams with both live performances and DJ's. All proceeds from the parties will go to support the UnionDocs space and the artist residency programs it supports.
It's the second benefit in the series and doubles as the latest edition of Darshan Jesrani and Citizen Kane's Strobe Lodge party:
There are also some Brooklyn events happening outside earlier on Saturday:
More info on Flashing Lights here
More options for Saturday (6/13):
– 2009 DMC DJ Battles at Santos
– Nicky Siano deejays Water Taxi Beach at the South Street Seaport every Saturday night.
– Satoshi Tomiie is at Sullivan Room. If you go be sure to check out openers Mixer Assassin!
– Play Date with Crooked Disco at the Gallery Bar at Le Poisson Rouge. Free with RSVP
– Save the Cannibals at Rebel with Martin Landsky and Taimur.
Moving on to Sunday (6/14):
Two of my favorite parties are on, yet again: Été d'Amour and Sunday Best.
Despite the noise complain last week, there is no doubt in my mind that the Été d'Amour crew will have things under control in the penthouse of the Rivington Hotel. This week's guest deejay is New York's own Stretch Armstrong who Été d'Amour recently posed a few questions to:
ÉTÉ D'AMOUR – We are very happy & honored to have you at the été d'amour Penthouse this Sunday. You are one of the greatest dj on Earth and you used to be one of the key player for hip hop & soul music and you change your dj style to the new electro scene – which is like having François K playing sets with techno music only. Can you explain to your fans why such a move?
STRETCH ARMSTRONG – I've been playing dance music for as long as I've been djing, I was just more well-known for hip-hop because I had a hip-hop radio show. I love the hip-hop that I came up with. I'm less excited about current hip-hop, even though some might say it's because I'm getting older. I disagree. I'm a huge supporter of new music from all over the musical spectrum.
EA – We are now used to very long dj performances at the été d'amour Sundays: Dimitri played a dubby disco 4 hour set, Tony Humphries played a perfect housey 5 hour set and this Sunday you will entertain us for seven hours. What should we expect from you? You know we have a crowd raving for a disco-housey vibe!
STRETCH – Well I aim to please! Disco and house is as New York as I am, and it's always a blast to get back to the foundation!
Stretch deejayed Été d'Amour's party at the Yard at the end of last summer and his set was excellent. Sunday night should be no different. Info below:
RSVP here and check the out the EANY group for info on future parties.

We're only halfway into June and it seems like there are more great summer parties than ever…but there are even more on their way! One which is starting up again in just a couple of weeks is:
THE BEACH PARTY, LIC with resident DJs Probus, Justin Carter and Eamon Harkin and very special guests
The Beach Party, LIC is back for its fourth year at Water Taxi Beach in Long Island City. What initially started as a low-key, Saturday night hang at the sandy East River outpost has turned into one of the biggest parties New York has to offer. But while luminaries of dance music like Prins Thomas and Grandmaster Flash have performed, and while the residents are New York all-stars DJ Probus, Justin Carter and Eamon Harkin (who's making his Water Taxi debut this summer), the party still maintains a casual spirit and remains a great vibe. Big or small, there's nothing like sipping a beer, having a hamburger and checking out the amazing view of the skyline in between dancing to great music.
Our special guests are…
June 27 ////////// Claude VonStroke
July 4 ///////////// Robert Hood
July 11 /////////// Demon Days with Carl Craig and Gamall

the wood of the ash tree is reputed to repel danger and protect you on journeys. Slip a piece of ash into each of your suitcases and another in your pocket before you set off. If you are travelling by sea and have a fear of water, string a piece of ash around your neck to guard against seasickness. Ash is a very positive and beneficial wood symbolising solidity. According to tales of Greek mythology, both Achilles' spear and Cupid's bow were fashioned from ash.


Medina, Cristian R.; Rupp, John A.
Porosity values collected from core analyses and geophysical logs from the Upper Cambrian Mount Simon Sandstone in the Midwest Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnership (MRCSP) region indicate a predictable decrease in porosity with depth that is best described by the relationship φ (d, in feet) = 16.36 * e-0.00012*d (r2=0.41). This relationship and the Mt. Simon's thickness were used to calculate net porosity feet, which was incorporated into the methodology presented in the Carbon Sequestration Atlas of the United States and Canada for estimating the potential storage capacity of CO2 in deep saline aquifers. The variables that affect the volumetric calculations include: 1) the area that defines the region being assessed (county by county assessment in this study); 2) the mean porosity of the stratigraphic unit; 3) the gross thickness of the basal sandstone; and 4) the CO2 storage efficiency factor, which accounts for material properties, including reservoir continuity and effective porosity. We conducted a sensitivity analysis to create two scenarios for CO2 storage capacity, including efficiency factors of 0.01 and 0.04, respectively. To gain some insights into how applicable this methodology is, we compared the theoretical values of net porosity obtained from core analyses with those obtained from geophysical logs. This approach generated solutions for the spatial distribution of net porosity feet that facilitated the calculation of storage volume potential for each county within the region. The total storage capacity for the region, calculated using efficiency factors of 0.01 and 0.04, is estimated to be 37.8 and 151.2 billion metric tons of CO2 respectively. This is approximately 74 percent higher than the values of 21.7 and 86.9 billion metric tons of CO2 estimated by the MRCSP for the capacity of the Mount Simon Sandstone in the states of Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, and Ohio.
This poster was presented at the 2009 Eastern Section Meeting of the American Association of Petroleum Geologists (AAPG) in Evansville, Ind., from Sept 20-22, 2009.

In recent years, home elevators have become increasingly popular. With hundreds of ways to customise home elevator apparatus, the task of selecting the best set-up at the best price can be intimidating. In the end, whether installed for a touch of luxury of out of medical necessity, home elevators can add significant value to a home.
The cost of a home elevator lies roughly between £9,750 and £13,000, with the cheapest types bottoming out at about £6,500 and the most expensive reaching up to £65,000 and beyond.
A home elevator's cost depends largely on its features, the range of which is surprisingly large. Among those to consider are weight capacity, type and durability of materials, decoration for the interior of the cab (for instance, carpeting, mirrors or chandeliers), and in-line or opposite openings (exiting on the same or opposite sides at each elevator exit point). If such features aren't important to you and function is all you're after, opting for a small winding drum elevator or a vertical lift may be your best bet.
The size and constitution of a home's elevator system strongly influence the cost. For instance, an elevator cab that is 3 feet wide by 4 feet deep will is more affordable than one 3 feet wide by 5 feet deep, and an elevator connecting only two stops (a first and second floor, for instance) is more affordable than one with several stops.
Home elevators can be built in the form of a roped-hydraulic elevator, a vacuum elevator, a counter-weighted chain drive elevator or a winding drum elevator. Prices for the various elevator type fluctuate with different companies and when applied in different settings.
When installing a home elevator after rather than during the home's construction, the price increases. Therefore, those adding an elevator system to an existing home should expect to pay more.
Some of the most established and reliable home elevator companies include TK Access, Savaria Concord, Federal Elevator, National Wheel-o-vator, American Crescent, Matot and Inclinator.


There are new shades of the Dior Addict Lip Glow Color Reviver Balms ($34 each) and they are amazing! If you're like me you probably started jumping for joy as soon as you heard the news that more colors and formula finishes were going to be launching this spring. For those who are new to these, the Dior Addict Lip Glow is a color-changing balm that shifts in color depending on your lip chemistry. This year they've added two new finishes in a Matte and Holographic version along with two new shades of the Original Classic formula. Six new shades total.
For the six shades some are retailer specific so you'll have to shop around to find all the new ones as some are store exclusives. I found Nordstrom and Neiman Marcus have 5 of the new shades, Sephora has 1 exclusive to their store and 2 other options of the new colors. My thoughts and description of the colors and finishes. Since these will adjust to a unique shade on your skin depending on your chemistry the overall look will most likely be different on you.
There's no detectable scent. They are moisturizing with a glossy finish for the regular and holographic shades. The matte ones have a distinct matte finish but aren't drying. Sometimes the colors will adjust deeper on my lips and give them a pink stain. Other times they'll give my lips a lighter flush.
Foundation worn on my face is NARS Natural Radiant Longwear Foundation in Vanuatu (all shades of the formula swatched here) with Armani Luminous Silk Powder Foundation #4 to set. All lip products were swatched on bare lips.
There are a few other color-changing balms on the market including the new shades of the Bobbi Brown Extra Lip Tints (reviewed here) and MAC Tendertalk Balms have made a comeback (review on the original launch here). All have a similar balmy cushiony feel, moisturizing finish and glossy look. My favorites are the Dior although each formula has a similar finish and vibe. The Dior is the most hydrating on my lips and has the softest feel to me. I also like Dior's colors the best but between the different brands I've tried they are pretty similar for formula.
Out of the new shades, my favorites are the Matte Pink, Raspberry and Holo Purple. Out of all the shades available I'd say my favorites are still probably the Coral and Lilac.
This week's giveaway in the Rafflecopter widget below. One winner will receive the new Dior Holo Pink Highlighter, Holo Pink Addict Lip Glow and Ultra-Pink Addict Lip Glow. Open internationally but you must be 18 years or older to enter and qualify. I'll pick one at random through the widget below. Not sponsored or affiliated. I will e-mail a winner within 72 hours after the giveaway ends. I usually ship prizes within a week.
Have you tried the new shades yet? Or the original ones? Do you have a favorite brand/formula of color-changing balms? You can find the new Dior Addict Lip Glows at all Dior counters now. Do keep in mind you may have to search a few stores for all the shades. I bought mine from Nordstrom and Sephora. Also available at Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, and Dior.

Austria is the preferred skiing destination for Luxembourg nationals, according to a new tourism study by Statec.
The study revealed that one in ten Luxembourg residents take winter ski trips, almost half of which (47%) last one week. These trips cost on average €980 per person, including accommodation, meals, transport and various activities. Meanwhile, 20% of residents leave only for an extended weekend and spend about €350 per person.
Of all tourist trips made during the first quarter of the year, 22% were in the mountains, compared to 10% in 2017. 73% of residents who undertake such trips between January and March stated their reason as practising winter sports, whilst the others go for relaxation. During these stays, the main accommodation used were hotels (53%), compared to 20% who prefer to rent an apartment or a chalet. Austria has come out as the preferred destination (28%) for such trips, followed by France (24%) and Switzerland (15%).
During the winter season, 23% of residents leave to visit family or friends, with whom they usually stay during their trip (65%). These visits typically last only a short time of 2 to 4 days (44%). At this time of the year, family or friend visits mostly take place in neighbouring countries, namely France (20%) and Germany (14%), as well as Portugal (13%).
Nevertheless, according to figures from the 2017 tourism survey, winter is the least favorable quarter for travel with 44% of the resident population going on holiday, compared to 70% between July and September, the most popular period, 53% between April and June and 49% between October and December. The most frequently chosen destinations are Spain (20%), France (15%), Portugal (12%) and Germany (11%) and the most popular accomodation choice is a hotel.

Director Steve Gordon's interview regarding the MRSA outbreak
Three Los Angeles Police Department officers have been infected with a highly contagious staph infection after what a union official says was an encounter with a homeless person at a police station. The three officers who were infected are on medical leave pending treatment and testing. All are expected to make a full recovery. Steve Gordon of the L.A. Police Protective League confirmed to CBSLA that it was a homeless transient who came into contact with officers at the station. Gordon was blunt when asked about the problems officers face when dealing with the homeless population. "Our officers are being put in very hazardous conditions, with the addiction to drugs, the homeless encampments, the feces, the needles, everything throughout these encampments," said Gordon.


Barbara Riveros of Chile and Santiago Ascenco of Brazil won the pro titles at Ironman 70.3 Pucon.
Chile's greatest woman triathlete added another star to her crown with a record 5th straight victory at her home country Ironman 70.3 Pucon triathlon Sunday.
Riveros broke out of a tight duel over the swim and bike legs with fellow Chilean Macarena Salazar Ezquerra and U.S. star Alicia Kaye on the strength of a dominating 1:27:32 half marathon, to finish in 4:30:07 with a 5:55 margin of victory over Kaye and 7:06 over 3rd place finisher Ezquerra.
Riveros emerged from the water with a 4 seconds deficit to swim leader Macarena Salazar Ezquerra. After a 2:30:16 bike split which tied Alicia Kaye for the women's best mark and was one second better than Salazar Ezquerra, Riveros led Kaye and Salazar Ezquerra by 3 seconds. Riveros then sped away from her rivals with a women's-best run to take the victory.
Riveros' 4:30:07 finish time was her second best at this race, coming after a 4:18:59 effort last year.
The win marks another highlight in Riveros' acclaimed career which includes three Olympic appearances topped by a 5th place at Rio in 2016, 2nd at the 2018 ITU long distance World Championship, a win at the 2015 Pan Am Games, a win at the 2011 ITU sprint World championship, and a recent 2nd place at XTERRA Worlds. After signing with premiere triathlon coach Brett Sutton, the 31-year-old Chilean moved up to the Ironman distance and placed second at Ironman Western Australia last December.
Santiago Ascenco of Brazil overcame a 1:58 deficit after the swim with a race-best 2:09:57 bike split and a race-best 1:17:55 run to finish in 3:59:33 with a 3:12 margin of victory over Andy Potts of the U.S. and 5:14 over 3rd place Felipe Barraza of Chile.
Ascenco came out of Lake Villarica with a 7th best swim split of 27:45 which left him 1:58 behind swim leader Felipe Barraza of Chile, 1:02 behind Andy Potts and Canadian Taylor Reid, and 1:05 behind Chilean Felipe Van De Wyngard. After a race-best 2:09:51 bike split, Ascenco entered T2 in second place, 18 seconds behind Van de Wyngard, 3 seconds ahead of Potts, 54 seconds behind Barraza, and 57 seconds behind Reid.
Ascenco cinched the deal with a dominating 1:17:55 half marathon – 3:03 faster than the next best run split of runner-up Potts – which brought the Brazilian to the line in 3:59:33 with a 3:12 margin of victory.

Massive Northbank riverfront redevelopment underway
Downtown Jacksonville's most significant eyesore is about to receive a transformational makeover. In a city that's bent over backwards to accommodate the automobile since 1950, this project will return a full city block back to its natural state.
Ennis Davis
Downtown Jacksonville and the Northbank riverfront during the early 20th century. (Howard Lawson)
Jacksonville is a city that owes its existence to the river that flows through the heart of it. Throughout the first century of the city's history, the Northbank riverfront was a place lined with seafood markets, wharfs, shipyards, cargo and passenger terminals. By the 1950s, city officials felt that the waterfront, that gave the city life, was in desparate need of a makeover. That makeover came in the form of relocating riverfront industry, demolishing the wharf district and extending downtown one block into the river for a massive riverfront parking lot.
The Northbank Riverfront shortly after the 1960s completion of the City Hall Annex and Duval County Courthouse. (State Archives of Florida)
As the decades passed, portions of the Northbank's massive public parking lot gave way to a mix of infill development projects such as the Jacksonville Landing, the Times-Union Performing Arts Center and the Hyatt Regency Jacksonville Riverfront.


US - Aviagen® has launched a new literature series focussing on Best Practice management for the Arbor Acres®, Indian River® and Ross® brands.
"Best Practice is something you do, not just something you hear about". That is the company's thinking behind their new literature series.
Aimed at complementing the existing range of literature, the Best Practice series is designed, first and foremost, to communicate best practice management strategies in a user-friendly way that can be implemented easily.
What managers need to do is presented to them as operational lists of key points. The messages are clearly visibly in the format of a know-how-to style, which is easy-to-read, being fully and brightly illustrated.
The first edition of this new Best Practice series, "Best Practice for Preventing Floor Eggs", covers management strategies in rear and during transfer and production for preventing floor eggs and is now available from the Aviagen website for Arbor Acres, Indian River and Ross.
Aviagen strives to constantly develop its existing range of available literature, using customer feedback to improve content, layout and design. The Best Practice and other on-farm tools were created following feedback from customers who wanted literature that provided a more practical approach to supplying management advice.
Commenting on the new literature, Nick French, Head of Global Technical Transfer, Aviagen, said: "We're always looking at new ways to present information and our new Best Practice series is a great addition to the existing line-up of available literature.
"Our teams are always available to help our customers put the theory into practice and these documents will provide a valuable aid in this process.
As well as covering breeder and broiler management best practice, hatchery topics will be featured in forthcoming editions and Aviagen are already developing future issues in all these areas.


AnonD-305262, 10 Sep 2015Sorry friend no matter what you say the truth is Androids lagMy friend's iPhone 5S lags like there's no tomorrow, much much more than my HTC one(M7). it takes 10 seconds to open the youtube app and then it lags another 5 seconds before it will actually open the search bar after you press it. So, sorry friend, but no matter what you said, in my experience iPhones lag much more than Android devices after a few months.
Agh85, 10 Sep 2015See my posts, I never said that the S6 is bad. I have throughout based my points on S4 and S5.... moreYeah, I agreed on RAM problem, because I occasionally notice it. A split second when an app that I've opened before refreshes. I don't mind that, considering that even the refreshing takes less than opening the app on some other phones.
And, yes they do have strong ties in design. But personally I don't like glass. Metal is much nicer. Something like on iPhone 6/ HTC One M9 is beautiful. And I can't wait to see what will 2016 bring. With new displays, processors and more memory on the way, they will be much better than any of the phones today (hopefully). And some people should take it easy... In the end of the day, it's the competition that motivates OEMs to make phones this good. And as difference in iOS/Android features has never been smaller it will be very exciting to see what's next. But still, these are just phones and there are more important things in life. At the end all companies want just one thing. Money.
AnonD-436155, 10 Sep 2015You're making a wrong assumption. Just because huawei launched their product FIRST doesn't mea... moreApple offered force touch ...it since its apple watch and mac...you think huawei made it first??/it just copied it very fast.
Kabbi, 10 Sep 2015Android is better then ios yes, but don't come here saying that Samsung never lags. Try anot... moreYup, TW lags like hell, especially on phones from 2012 with JellyBean. KitKat is somewhat better, S5 on Lollipop has only occasional lags (my friend has one) while in 3 months I've never seen my S6 lag. TW is much more optimized on 2015 (flagship) phones.
AnonD-296165, 10 Sep 2015Yeah it does. Faster than any phone I've seen. And anyone talking about bad performance of Exy... moreSee my posts, I never said that the S6 is bad. I have throughout based my points on S4 and S5. Coz, I'm comparing them to my iPhone 6. The 6s duo was revealed yesterday only and we are yet to see how that fares.
And S6 is the best Android device at the moment, if I leave out the Note5. But even you kind of agreed that Ram and memory management is a problem even with the latest Android OS. It will hopefully get solved with Android 6.0.
All companies take inspiration from each other. The S6 design has strong ties to the iPhone 4/4s designs, the materials chosen. HTCs all metal M7/M8/M9 were inspired by iPhone 5/5s all metal body.
sa11oum, 10 Sep 2015This is very good. I used the 6 Plus for 10 months and it was blazing fast even with just a gi... moreThen something may be wrong with your phone. Although I've never seen a Note5 and held it in my hands, I've seen it in reviews and it appears just as fast or even faster than S6 that I own. Maybe try comparing to another Note5. Or maybe it's a software glitch that could be fixed in a software update.
Zeela, 10 Sep 2015Your life is very sad if that's how you view a bloody phone. It's a phone, not a way of life.Be happy with your happy life.
Agh85, 10 Sep 2015Well you guys are comparing the 6s duo with 2012 flagships. Last year, as per almost all revie... moreYeah it does. Faster than any phone I've seen. And anyone talking about bad performance of Exynos 7420 is simply stupid. Everyone knows it's the best CPU of 2015 (we'll see how it compares to A9, but stil...) 3 Gigs of RAM is enough for me as I've never seen it lag (I own one) and RAM managment problem can be fixed and will be fixed in Android Marshmallow.
And since everyone is talking about copying, then what is the 6 Plus, just a (bending) attempt of creating a phablet. Force/3D touch is not an iPhone innovation or anything as it already exists in Android since Gingerbread, but in form of a long touch and not pressing. Again, if there was no copying then we would probably never had phones this advanced... So, I don't mind. I love Android and I love Samsung (Galaxy S6, nothing else from them). But if any day Apple creates a better phone (which it still hasn't that suits my needs) I'll buy it that instant.
Agh85, 10 Sep 2015When Apple used 1GB Ram, Android fanboys had an issue. When Apple uses 2GB Ram, then also you ... moreYour life is very sad if that's how you view a bloody phone. It's a phone, not a way of life.
AFAIK iPhones have never had any problem regarding RAM capacity. I am wondering what makes Apple doubles the RAM, as iOS doesn't handle tasks in true parallel processing for each app running.
Anonymous, 10 Sep 2015Oh, come on now! I'm not a Samsung fan either, in fact I hate them for their Touchwizz and Kno... moreWell if you haven't used a S4 ever, how would you know? I know it because my best friend had a S4. He sold it off and got iPhone 5. And Samsung somehow optimises the Note phones better than the Galaxy phones. I will wait in line for the iCrap no doubt, will see you bragging about how Samsung moved to 4/6 GB Rams in 2016 and how so much Ram is actually a necessity for the new force touch display that Samsung will surely copy from Apple. They copied 64-bit architecture, they copied Touch ID and finally Apple pay.
When iPhone has the best pixel screen, they say they have the best screen than other competitors. When iPhone has a normal screen, the fans said, we do not need better screen.
When iPhone has the best batteries, they say android phones have lousy batteries. When they have the really normal batteries, they do not need a big battery.
When iPhone has the fastest performance, they are truly proud of their phones. If other phones have better performance in future, they gonna say they do not such speed to operate their phone.
If iPhone has an external SD slot in future, they will say they have the best SD slot in the world. Now the fact is iPhones do not have the slots, they say they do not need it.
IPhones are not waterproof, they say they are not gonna bath or swim with the phones. If iPhones are waterproof in future, they say their phones are great!
Anonymous, 10 Sep 2015Android''s hanging issue isn't a problem anymore..it very smooth this days..it's not 2012.wak... moreWell you guys are comparing the 6s duo with 2012 flagships. Last year, as per almost all reviews, the iPhone 6 duo smoked up all Android flagships with its dual core/1GB Ram architecture. This year, the (most likely) quadcore/2GB Ram will scorch the Exynos 7420 in all likelihood.
What do you get by bragging about hexa/octa core processes and 3/4GB Rams? Does your Android phone open mails and FB or Whatsapp apps at the speed of light??

Q: Merge data in two excel files I have two Excel documents with AD user information that I need to merge to gather all information.
One of the documents has information about AD groups and the names of the members of these groups. The other document has information about the users -  if they are enabled, username, name and e-mail address.
The common values in the documents are the names. I want the values of the users' usernames and e-mail addresses over in the Excel document with the groups.

I have more than 3400 rows in the groups document and 271 users listed in the users document. In the groups document the users will be listed several times, since a user can, and will be a member of more than one group.
Is there a way to merge the data I want (e-mail address and username) using the common value in both the documents (the users name)? And is there any problem with the users being listed several times?
Soltuion
I managed to do this by installing an addon to Excel, Ablebits Data.
https://www.ablebits.com/
It gave me the possibility to merge the excel documents and add data fra one to the other with reference to the data that was the same.

A: I would use the fully integrated Get & Transform Excel feature, since you have Excel 2016. For previous Version you can use the free MS Power Query Add-in.
Combine data from multiple data sources is without programming/vba knowledge not difficult at all. The MS Support describe it here step-by-step.
You need this main steps.

*

*Import the first source

*Import the second source

*Combine the first source to the second one through definition of common columns/fields.
Here the M-Code (you don't have to write it actually, when you use the user Interface of Get & Transform):

*

*First Source (e.g. user's Information)
let
    Source = Excel.Workbook(File.Contents("C:\yourPath\example\Input2.xlsx"), null, true),
    Table13_Table = Source{[Item="Table13",Kind="Table"]}[Data],
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Table13_Table,{{"Name", type text}, {"Enabled", type logical}, {"email", type text}})
in
    #"Changed Type"

*Second Source (e.g. AD groups), where the 1st source is combined with
let
    Source = Excel.Workbook(File.Contents("C:\Users\EDubosson\Documents\Privat\OneDrive\Öffentlich\example\Input1.xlsx"), null, true),
    Table1_Table = Source{[Item="Table1",Kind="Table"]}[Data],
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Table1_Table,{{"GroupName", type text}, {"Member", type text}}),
    #"Merged Queries" = Table.NestedJoin(#"Changed Type",{"Member"},Table13,{"Name"},"Table13",JoinKind.Inner),
    #"Expanded {0}" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(#"Merged Queries", "Table13", {"Enabled", "email"}, {"Enabled", "email"})
in
    #"Expanded {0}"

My daughter recently lost a tooth. She really lost it, too, since she was eating a bagel at the time. It got swallowed, never to be seen again. I warned her ahead of time that it was ready to fall out. I even asked her to let me help the loss along. I told her she could see the dentist, who would help her remove it. I should have known better. We have trouble getting her into the dentist's chair when there's no wiggly tooth involved. We are not alone. According to a WebMD article, between 9 and 20 percent of Americans say they are afraid of dentists, and that number is probably higher for children, according to experts.
If you've got a child who is dental-phobic take note: Dental health — or lack of — is a major problem since early childhood caries (ECC) or cavities is the most chronic childhood illness out there. Yes, you read me right: Cavities are an illness. Left untreated they can lead to infection and abscesses, and can harm permanent teeth sitting below the gum line. There are some very simple steps you can take to make sure you keep your child's teeth healthy. Here are some ideas we've used with Big Girl, our resident dental-phobe.
Get them brushing — early and often. This might seem difficult. It was for us. What helped: Getting a cool toothbrush and some tasty organic toothpaste. We use Tom's of Maine, starting out with the fluoride-free and moving to the anti-cavity Silly Strawberry as soon as we knew she was old enough to avoid swallowing it.
Find a pediatric dentist. This proved to be more difficult for our family. There are plenty of pediatric dentists in the area, but they don't take insurance, and they are expensive. We found an affordable option at the local teaching college. Dental students, who work along side dentists, can charge far less, but provide cutting-edge treatment. Plus, they're getting graded so they can't ask us to leave if the screams get too loud!
Get your pediatrician involved. Researchers at Boston University School of Medicine found that when doctors get involved asking about and explaining dental health, kids get fewer cavities. If your pediatrician doesn't ask you about your child's dental health, ask him or her about what you can do to improve your child's oral health.
Go alternative. A recent study in The Journal of Pediatrics found that kids do better when dentists adapt their offices to make them more kid-friendly. For example, bright lights can scare kids. My pediatric dentist, who knew about this study, had kid-sized sunglasses on hand when we got there. Big Girl, who is light sensitive to begin with, loved choosing and wearing her new shades, and seemed to deal with the bright light shining into her eyes much better. The study also suggests that soothing music helps, so we plan on bringing along her iPod on our next visit.
Hold them close. The same study also suggested wrapping kids up tight as a way to keep them calmer. I'm not going to put my child in a straight jacket, but I can mimic that feeling by sitting on the dental chair and having my daughter sit on my lap with my arms around her.
We've got another loose tooth in the house. Big Girl requested an apple today. She wants it to come out on its own. Either way she's got a dental appointment scheduled in a few weeks. I can't wait to try a little of my own advice. My dad — her grandfather — was afraid of the dentist. As a result he wore dentures at the young age of 39. My mother, on the other hand, is vigilant about getting her checkups and gum treatments, so she has almost all her teeth at retirement age. Not a bad goal to set for my children.
great article, and i will be taking some advice. how do you teach them how to spit…and what age is good. he is 2 3/4 but he doesn't get not swallowing the toothpaste yet.
You are so right to teach your child not to swallow toothpaste. Or at least the conventional, commercial toothpaste available today. Fluoride is not a good thing for young bodies to be ingesting.
I found that spitting couldn't be taught, it is more of a relex to swallow. I had my son use the safe to swallow toothpaste without flouride until he was over 4 and I saw he was able to spit. If you wait a little longer it will probably come naturally.

UBS Global Asset Management 'Is Not For Sale'
A top UBS executive insists that the unit which includes the Swiss bank's mutual fund arm is not on the block.
John Fraser
UBS Global Asset Management
"The business is not for sale," John Fraser, chairman and CEO of UBS Global Asset Management, told the Financial Times.
"There have been rumours in the market for sometime and this puts them to rest," added UBS spokesman Kris Kagel in an emailed statement to The MFWire. "On Nov 3 UBS will be publishing its 3Q09 results and at that time we will be able to say more about the growth and strength of the business."
The FT's Kate Burgess and Megan Murphy note that UBS and BlackRock (the soon-to-be purchaser of Barclays Global Investors) discussed such a possible sale last year, but they report that the deal fell apart because UBS wanted an all-cash deal. According to the FT, last year also saw UBS and Credit Suisse discuss merging their asset management units.


Ballet I will focus on the development of ballet skills including basic alignment, balance, flexibility, and discipline. More advanced movement such as leaps and pirouettes (turns) will be introduced. Ballet vocabulary continues to develop as more terminology is introduced. As the base of all dance forms, Ballet I will help students gain a sense of accomplishment that will carry them into higher levels of ballet as well as any other style of dance.


Ubisoft has announced on the game's forums that a patch for Rainbow Six Siege is due to go live today on the PS4, xbox One, and PC. The patch will fix issues such as hit detection, balancing, and netcoding.
PC gamers will also be getting an increased tick rate which will change it from 30 times per second to 60 times per second. This should help the rate which a player's position is updated on the server. This will come to console versions after the PC tick rate has been tested properly.
The patch will also add an auto-kick feature to the game which will automatically kick players who purposely kill their own team mates or the hostage they're mean't to save. Ubisoft has reported that this affects 1.8% of matches so it's good to see it's being addressed. The patch will also tone down the blood color which many gamers feel is too florescent and unrealistic looking.
Ubisoft is also addressing spawn killing by reducing the time it takes for Defenders to be detected from five seconds to two seconds. Other issues being fixed include drones falling through the floor, players getting stuck in environments, inaccurate kill cams, and a tweak to Glaz's scope which will reduce the red filter.
The patch will be released at 6pm-7pm GMT on PC and 7pm-8pm GMT on PS4 and Xbox One.

Stonehage Fleming Names New Advisory Board
Jackie Bennion, Deputy Editor, 26 November 2020
The large manager-owned family office has appointed the first members of a new advisory board naming a former UK diplomat as its chair.
Global family office Stonehage Fleming has appointed Natalie Campbell and Anthony Wreford to join a new advisory team being chaired by former UK diplomat Lord Renwick. All three positions are effective immediately.
As a diplomat, Lord (Robin) Renwick (pictured above) was UK ambassador to the US and South Africa, and a crossbench peer in the House of Lords until 2018. He also has board experience at the Swiss luxury goods group Richemont AG, UK brewer SAB Miller, and British Airways.
Stonehage Fleming has a notable presence in South Africa, with family office, investment management, tax advisory, and sports and entertainment services in centres in Cape Town and Johannesburg.
The group told this publication that the decision to create an advisory board was made 12 months ago. The new paid advisory team - more members to be announced - will meet four times a year primarily to advise senior management and support business development.
Lord Renwick has already served on the Stonehage Fleming Group board.
Also joining is social entrepreneur and A Very Good Company founder Natalie Campbell, who spun the venture from a social innovation consultancy she launched in 2011. Campbell is currently CEO of Belu Water and a board member for the London Economic Action Partnership, a local enterprise bringing councils and local business together. She also serves on the board of the Old Oak and Park Royal Development Corporation.
The third advisor Anthony Wreford is former deputy chairman of Omnicom Europe and former president of the old cricketing body the MCC, owner of the Lord's cricket ground. Wreford is involved in a variety of non-executive roles, including Mayfair-based technology group FPE Capital and sports management consultancy Portas Consulting.
Group chief executive Chris Merry said: "I am pleased to announce the launch in what is an exciting new development for our business. Our accomplished members will bring an independent view to our client proposition, products and services to ensure that we continue to evolve our offering to meet the needs of our global client base."
The advisors will also act as ambassadors helping to "strengthen the brand in their networks and introducing the group to potential clients," the firm said.

Q: Sending complex form data to ajax calling ASP.NET page I have a form written below:

        Worker Type:
        <input type="text" id="WorkerTypeTB"/>

        Worker Name:
        <input type="text" id="WorkerNameTB1"/>
        Worker Position
        <input type="text" id="WorkerPositionTB1"/>

        Worker Name:
        <input type="text" id="WorkerNameTB2"/>
        Worker Position
        <input type="text" id="WorkerPositionTB2"/>

        Worker Position
        <input type="text" id="WorkerPositionTBn"/>

            <input type="button" id="SaveBTN"/>

It has one worker type field, and dynamically generated N (WorkerName,WorkerPosition) fields.
What is the best way to send data to AJAX calling ASP.NET page?
I am using following jQuery AJAX:
$.ajax({
       type: "POST",
       url: "AjaxMethod.aspx",
       data: data,
       //dataType: "json", ??????
       //contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8" ?????
    });

Should I use JSON or some other dataType to send my data to ajax calling page?
I would like to optimally format my form data in following manner:
workerType: developer
workers:
    workerName1: Jack
    workerPosition1: Johnson
    workerName2: Joe
    workerPosition2: Phillips
    ...
    workerNameN: Walter
    workerPositionN: Wolf

How to format this kind of data to JSON if JSON is best dataType to use for sending data to ajax calling page?
How to send this JSON object via jQuery AJAX?
How to accept this type of data on server side Page_Load function and how to read it's elements?
Thank you in advance!

Між іншим їхня перша зустріч відбулась на виховній годині через те що вони малювали на партах. Малювали вони різних міфічних істот (звідси їх назва каналу YouTube, GMM / Good Mythical Morning). У віці чотирнадцяти років, вони написали сценарій під назвою «Gutless Wonders(укр. "Безвольні чудеса")» і почали знімати фільм, заснований на ньому. Вони зняли тільки декілька сцен, і фільм не був закінчений. Це в кінцевому рахунку, цей сценарій був прочитаний в декількох епізодах Good Mythical Morning. У 1994 році в середній школі,вони зняли 25-хвилинний фільм-пародію на трагедію Царя Едіпа, де Ретт був Едіпом і Лінк був слугою свого батька.

Jet Airways crisis: Prabhu asks aviation secy to hold emergency meeting.
Civil Aviation Minister Suresh Prabhu Tuesday asked his Ministry Secretary to hold an emergency meeting on the grounding of flights by Jet Airways, and advance bookings, cancellation, refunds and safety issues. In a tweet, Mr Prabhu said he asked the Secretary to get a report on Jet compliance issues immediately from Directorate General of Civil Aviation.
Our correspondent reports that the cash-starved Jet Airways has alleged that non-payment of salaries had adversely affected its members' psychological condition, which puts the safety of the airline's flight operations at risk.
In a communication to the DGCA, the Jet Airways Aircraft Maintenance Engineers' Association sought the aviation regulator's intervention in recovering the dues.
It said the management's failure to keep its commitment of clearing their salary by March had shaken their faith in the company.

Smoking can result in oral cancer, reduce smelling and tasting abilities, compromise recovery after oral surgery, stain the teeth, and increase the risk of contracting periodontal disease. The American Dental Association (ADA) and all pediatric dentists encourage children, adolescents, and adults to abstain from all forms of tobacco use.
It is essential that parents strongly discourage preadolescent and adolescent tobacco use.
Tobacco use in any form brings the oral region into direct contact with carcinogens (cancer causing agents). Parents and teens often mistakenly evaluate smokeless tobacco as the "safer" option. In fact, smokeless tobacco has been proven to deliver a greater concentration of harmful agents into the body, and to be far more addictive. In addition, smokeless tobacco causes leukoplakias in the mouth, which are dangerous pre-cancerous lesions.
It is important to state that the oral cancer is treatable if caught early.
First, talking to the child personally about the dangers of tobacco use has proven an effective preventative strategy. Second, parents should lead by example. According to research studies, children of non-smokers are less likely to pick up this dangerous habit.

South Africa recovered from a sluggish first hour on Saturday morning where they dropped four catches' missed a stumping and a run-out to take three wickets and reduce Pakistan to 111/5 on the second day of the third and final Test in Johannesburg.
Pakistan still trail South Africa by 151 first innings runs and they will rue the lost wickets of Mohammad Abbas (11) and Asad Shafiq (0) from Duanne Olivier and Imam-ul-Haq (43) from Vernon Philander as the Proteas fixed their fielding errors.
Pakistan added 94 runs to their overnight score of 17/2. They will resume with Babar Azam and captain Sarfraz Ahmed on respective scores of 41 and 8' and their intention will be to bat as long as possible to reduce South Africa's advantage.
Besides their poor fielding' South Africa also survived a scare when Dale Steyn walked off the field clutching his shoulder' but he returned and continued to bowl.
Before the wickets of Abbas and Shafiq' the Bullring watched in disbelief as the Proteas displayed a woeful fielding display that started with Ul-Haq let off the hook by wicketkeeper Quinton de Kock' who failed to gather the ball allowing the Pakistani batsman to regain balance and save himself.
Then Temba Bavuma and Theunis de Bruyn dropped Mohammad Abbas and Ul-Haq from the bowling of Vernon Philander and Steyn.
Abbas got another lifeline when he was dropped by De Kock as the South African fast bowling trio of Kagiso Rabada' Philander and Steyn cranked up the early pressure before Olivier was introduced to the attack.
There were to be more errors from the Proteas as De Kock dropped Ul-Haq and Abbas was saved by a wayward throw by Rabada' which could have accounted for a run-out off one ball.
The South Africans finally got it right in the second hour of the session when Abbas edged the ball to third slip from where De Bruyn claimed a regulation catch from the bowling of Olivier' and another wicket followed in the same over when Shafiq was caught by De Kock.
Shortly before the break Dean Elgar caught Ul-Haq's thick edge at slips from Philander as Pakistan plunged deeper into trouble.

Professional notice
Established by two former prosecutors, FeldensMadruga takes pride in its "meticulous" methods for conducting investigations.
Founders Luciano Feldens and Antenor Madruga, who both have a background working in government, in 2013 joined forces to launch white-collar boutique FeldensMadruga. The pair's shared interests have produced a firm that specialises in white-collar crime, related litigation and compliance and asset recovery work.
Madruga is listed in both Who's Who Legal: Investigations and Who's Who Legal: Business Crime Defence. He leads the firm's Brasília office and the firm's corporate compliance practice and, alongside Feldens, the firm's white-collar crime practice. Madruga previously held several positions in Brazil's federal government, such as national secretary of justice, director of asset recovery, member of the board of the Brazilian Financial Unit, and coordinator of the National Strategy for Combating Corruption and Money Laundering.
The firm's other founder, Feldens, is based in Porto Alegre. He served as a federal prosecutor for over a decade, specialising in financial crimes and money laundering cases. In private practice, he has represented clients in some of the major financial crime cases in Brazil.
Débora Poeta, the third partner of the firm, also based in Porto Alegre, is a white-collar crime and antitrust lawyer. Ana Belotto, a licensed New York lawyer, is a foreign law consultant in the firm's compliance and investigations practice and acts on multi-jurisdictional cases with a US nexus, focusing on Foreign Corrupt Practices Act violations.
Claudia Chagas joined the firm as a consultant after leaving her role as a federal prosecutor in 2017. She served as the national secretary of justice for over four years and led the team that created the Brazilian Department for Asset Recovery and International Legal Cooperation.
Over the last year, FeldensMadruga has continued to be active in the Operation Car Wash investigation. It is also expanding past its usual client repertoire from the construction and energy sectors to include international clients in the health, chemical and financial sectors.
The firm has assisted Norwegian law firm Selmer in conducting an internal investigation into Norwegian oil services company Sevan Marine. In April 2018, GIR reported that Sevan faced allegations that it had paid bribes to Brazil's state-controlled oil company, Petrobras, to win contracts. The results of the internal investigation were passed on to Norway's National Authority for Investigation and Prosecution of Economic and Environmental Crime, and to the Federal Prosecution Service in Brazil.
The firm is currently defending HStern, one of the largest jewellers in Brazil, in a Council for Financial Activities Control (COAF) investigation into money laundering. The firm has also represented HStern's executives in a plea bargain agreement over the conduct.
Engineering company Rolls-Royce continues to seek FeldensMadruga's advice. In 2017, acting with Debevoise & Plimpton and Slaughter and May, the firm participated in the Brazilian part of the negotiation of parallel settlements between Rolls-Royce and Brazil's Federal Prosecution Service, the US Department of Justice and the UK's Serious Fraud Office. The British engine manufacturer had been accused of bribery to win contracts in multiple countries around the world. As part of the leniency agreement between Rolls-Royce and Brazil's MPF, the company had to pay Brazilian authorities $26 million, according to GIR's reporting in January 2017. GIR has also previously reported that FeldensMadruga acts for Rolls-Royce in ongoing discussions with the country's Ministry of Transparency and General Comptroller's Office. The results of the investigation have been delayed four times, with the newest deadline set for February 2020.
The firm has four offices in Brazil: Brasília, Porto Alegre, São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. Over the last year, partners from the firm have worked across Brazil, as well as overseas in the UK, US, Switzerland and Spain.
Some of the big-name clients the firm works for include Rolls-Royce, social media company Facebook, accommodation company Airbnb and American conglomerate General Electric. In the past, the firm has worked for banks UBS and HSBC Brazil, Latin American fund GP Investments and French manufacturing company Vallourec.
FeldensMadruga was among the firms that negotiated a non-prosecution settlement between Brazilian construction company Carioca Engenharia and Brazil's Federal Prosecution Service (MPF). As a result, the company was allowed to continue to obtain government contracts. The civil and criminal settlements signed with the public prosecutors and comptroller general were among the first of those reached during Operation Car Wash. The firm worked with Barbosa Müssnich & Aragão during the process.
Feldens has represented one of the biggest individual clients in Brazil: businessman Marcelo Odebrecht, who ran an enormous construction company and was accused by prosecutors of having paid bribes in exchange for contracts. In March 2016 he was sentenced to 19 years in prison for corruption, money laundering and conspiracy. But in December 2016 he struck a plea deal with federal prosecutors, allowing him to be released. He was freed from prison in December 2017 and will serve the rest of his sentence from home.
In 2016, construction and engineering company Odebrecht confessed to corruption and paid $2.6 billion in fines in settlement with US, Swiss and Brazilian authorities. Prosecutor Deltan Dallagnol described the scandal as "worse than Watergate."
FeldensMadruga is a Brazilian firm specialising in white collar-crime. The firm's work goes beyond the traditional scope of criminal litigation, defending the needs and interests of clients in all circumstances facing potential sanctions from the state. This results in a strategic approach to criminal, administrative and civil disputes. The firm also advises on preventive anti-money laundering and anti-corruption, designing effective compliance programmes.
The firm's name partners, Antenor Madruga and Luciano Feldens, both come from a law enforcement background.
Antenor Madruga
In the late 1990s, while still serving as federal attorney, and prior to joining private practice, Antenor Madruga played a pivotal role in promoting changes in anti-money laundering law enforcement and policy in Brazil. He coordinated and executed the Brazilian strategy in a cross-border litigation that ended with the conviction of former judge Nicolau dos Santos Neto – a groundbreaking case, not only for white-collar crime prosecution but also for cross-border litigation and international legal cooperation.
Madruga has a PhD from the University of São Paulo and a specialist degree in business law from the Catholic University of São Paulo. He is regarded by specialists as a visionary pioneer in the field of international legal cooperation. He led the team that founded the department of asset recovery and international legal cooperation at the Ministry of Justice, and initiated the National Strategy for Combating Corruption and Money Laundering (ENCCLA).
Luciano Feldens
Luciano Feldens was a federal prosecutor from 1997 to 2009. During that time, he led several emblematic white-collar crime and money-laundering cases before federal courts. After joining private practice, he worked as defence attorney in some of the most famous criminal cases in recent Brazilian history, such as that of banker Daniel Dantas in the well-known Operation Satiagraha; and that of marketing executive Duda Mendonça, who ran President Lula's political campaign in 2002. He has a PhD from the University of Valladolid in Spain and has long served as a law professor at the Catholic University of Rio Grande do Sul.
The combination of backgrounds and expertise from the firm's name partners – a mix of cross-border litigation, international legal cooperation, criminal expertise and academic tradition – earned FeldensMadruga a prominent position in the Brazilian legal environment from its very beginnings in 2013. The firm has acted in important cases originating from Operation Car Wash, such as the defence of Marcelo Odebrecht, and negotiated plea bargain and leniency agreements for important global firms like Rolls-Royce. In this case there was coordination with foreign law firms and authorities to close the final deals.
With offices in Brasilia, Porto Alegre, São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, FeldensMadruga is present in 60 jurisdictions through its alliances worlwide.
White-collar crime: We are specialised in complex representation of corporate clients, working strategically to anticipate and respond to risks regarding the Brazilian legal environment for business in matters of white-collar crime.
Corporate ethics and compliance: Our specialists are integrated with criminal defence and civil enforcement experts to develop compliance programmes, conduct internal investigations, negotiate global settlements and facilitate cooperation with government regulators in leniency and plea bargain agreements.
Administrative proceedings: The complex Brazilian regulatory environment, especially in banking and financing, can result in serious collateral administrative sanctions related to criminal prosecutions. We provide a one-front strategy that considers the global interests of our clients.
Litigation (higher courts): The nature of the Brazilian legal system allows many different proceedings to reach the superior courts such as the Superior Court of Justice (STJ) and the Supreme Federal Court (STF). Our office in Brasilia has litigation experts with experience in acting before our higher courts.
International law and international legal cooperation: International law is in the DNA of our firm and originates from the background of founding partner Antenor Madruga. Our team comprises experts in the field of international law and legal cooperation. The practice also works in coordination with other areas of the firm related to transnational litigations.
