Want to know about the effects of weather on solar panels? Listen now.
If you're an organization located in an area of the U.S. where Mother Nature can dish out some extreme weather conditions, listen up. Are solar panels and wind a problem? What about solar panels and snow? And solar panels and hail HAVE to be a concern, right?
This podcast explains the effects of weather on solar panels, and can help you determine if you should even consider a commercial solar installation. (Spoiler alert: You should.) In this episode of the SunPower Business Broadcast, host Jeff Allen asks solar expert Zach Campeau, "Do solar panels work during extreme weather?" Hear Zach's answers—and be sure not to miss his story about fist-sized hail.
Jeff Allen: Hello, everyone. Welcome back to the SunPower Business Broadcast. I'm Jeff Allen. When we think of solar power, solar energy, we often think of – and this makes sense, right? – the sun shining and warmth and blue skies and just the perfect weather conditions. This is for all of the obvious good reasons. As many of our listeners are very much aware, there are plenty of areas in the United States and all around the world, for that matter, where Mother Nature and all the weather that she brings forth – rain, snow, wind, other types of extreme conditions including hail, extreme heat, for that matter – how do those extreme types of conditions affect the operation of solar panels? Does that have any kind of negative effects on the power that they are supposed to generate for us?
Well, we're going to find out because, once again today, we're joined by Mr. Zach Campeau. Zach is an incredibly knowledgeable veteran of the solar industry. You might remember, he's been a previous guest on our program before. Today, he's going to talk to us a little bit about how commercial solar systems handle extreme weather conditions. Zach, it's been some time. It's good to talk with you again. Thanks for making some time in your day to chat with us.
Zach Campeau: It's great to be back. Thank you, Jeff.
Jeff Allen: We appreciate it and we've been looking forward to this discussion. We've just kind of talked a little bit about this ideal mindset we have of ideal weather conditions to help us generate power through those solar panels, through the solar installation we recently had installed, or that we've seen installed. You could talk about residential or commercial, really.
Today, thinking in terms of commercial solar installations, we often don't think of the cooler months of the year – the cooler seasons. It might include late fall all throughout the wintertime or early spring – November through March, let's say. Does it make any sense for companies located in colder climates where the sun doesn't always shine 365 days a year to consider solar power?
Zach Campeau: Yes, absolutely. Albeit counterintuitive, these sites actually are very promising for solar. Just as a couple of anecdotal examples – Germany, which is famously not sunny, famously has one of the largest installed capacities of solar in the world. A couple of years ago, I think over 50 or 60% of the energy from the grid came from solar energy. It certainly works in higher latitudes. Within the US – New York, New Jersey, and Massachusetts are among the top ten states with the most solar capacity installed. Again, we don't exactly think of those as having weather like Hawaii or Phoenix or Florida certainly. Why could this be?
Well, it's because the cold weather doesn't have a huge effect on your production. There's no real liability issue from the temperatures that we're talking about here. Temperatures are tested from -40s Fahrenheit all the way up to 185 Fahrenheit. They're certified to operate within that range. We're certainly not exceeding that range even with some of the worst weather that's out there.
However, of course, with the winter, we think of cloudier days. The sun is lower so there are fewer hours of daylight and this certainly has an effect on production. On the other side, these electrical systems actually perform better as they get colder. We could go into some devices. It might get a little too much for this particular meeting but suffice it to say that certain electrical characteristics, as temperature goes down, become more favorable to the production of energy.
On top of all of this, of course, is the specifics of that site. What are the electricity rates like? What is the type of mounting that we have? It should be considered as a whole. Any competent solar company should be able to put together an expected energy for your site. From that, you could start working towards a financial format to figure out how solar will benefit you.
Jeff Allen: I think you kind of helped to debunk some of the myths there. In fact, in the wintertime, we know that there are some portions of the country that experience quite a significant amount of snowfall. You're talking about snowfall that can take and bury these solar panels under a certain degree of snow, perhaps, as much as several feet, in certain cases. Talk to us about the effects that snowfall could have on these solar panels and their ability to generate the power that we need for our businesses.
Zach Campeau: Absolutely. Any product is going to be designed to be used in as many places as possible. It wouldn't make a lot of sense for people to design a solar panel that only works below, say, the latitude of Los Angeles. It would be limiting the market a lot; especially when we know that solar panels work fine in cold weather. So what about snow and how do we check it? There's actually industry standard certifications that are used where they take a panel, mount it, and then start loading sandbags on it. There's different levels of the certification. A pretty typical one is 5400 Pascals, which is the unit of pressure. To put that in context, 5400 Pascals is about equivalent to one ton of weight on the front of the panel, which is a pretty significant amount of snow.
Jeff Allen: So we're talking about a significant amount of pressure then, Zach. If I'm looking at them as just kind of a guy with average knowledge of how solar power works, and I see a bunch of snow piled on top of those solar arrays and I just had these panels installed and they're buried two or three feet deep in snow or whatever the case might be, are those solar panels still going to be effective in being able to generate the power to bring that sunlight in through?
Zach Campeau: Certainly the production will go down because the panels are covered with snow but unfortunately, snow happens in the time of the year that there's not a lot of sunlight. When you look at the financials for sites towards the North, most of the energy that pays for the system in the first few years is occurring during the summer when the snow isn't there and that's where the sun is in the sky for hours and hours a day and there's lower probability of having cloudy weather. Interestingly, the snow happens at the best point in the year because the sun is the lowest and the weather is the worst. But it's also important to know, just letting it melt with the rest of the snow on the roof is completely fine. Even if there's a bunch of snow piled up there, the building owners don't have to spend additional resources going to clean that snow off.
Jeff Allen: In other words, Zach, just to kind of give us some clarity on this, we shouldn't have to worry so much about that snow because our solar panels have been generating enough power that we will have enough in excess or in storage or in reserve, I guess you might say, that would allow us to continue to operate even if those solar panels are buried knee deep in snow.
Zach Campeau: Right. I think reserve is the key term there. While onsite physical storage – what we think of as batteries and things like that – those are just starting to roll out to the market. What's much more typical, and has been for years, is something called net metering, where it's almost like, picture a ledger that you and your utility keep. Each time you make a kilowatt that you're not using instantly on your site, you're selling it to the grid. Then at night or during the winter, you're buying back electricity generally at a lower rate, especially at night, than you were paid when you produced it. That's kind of the fundamental economic model for many, many commercial solar systems.
Jeff Allen: Wind is a real big deal for many of us. I know so many of us who have these shake roofs or tile roofs and we've seen these things blow off in the wind. Is that ever something that we need to be concerned about when it comes to our solar panels as well as damage from wind and wind gust?
Zach Campeau: If you think about what the wind is actually doing to the panel, you've got a large aluminum frame and a piece of glass so it's kind of pushing a force on it similar to how you would imagine that snow load being applied. However, with wind, it can be applied on the front or the back, so the certification testing that they do for wind is actually very similar to snow. They load the front; they load the back; and they cycle it a few times to simulate that.
What some kind of best-in-class companies will do is, they'll do additional qualification tests where they'll do thousands of cycles back and forth using really kind of comical-looking machines like two giant pillows that are pushing back and forth or vacuum pumps and things like that. That ensures that the products will last not just three or four very severe cycles, but thousands and thousands of intermittent cycles that we expect on a typical roof.
On top of that, some companies will go out and actually achieve additional certifications so that these types of tests can be conveyed to the customer. Examples of that are things like cyclonic load testing. For instance, that's one that they use in Australia to make sure panels will stay adhered to the surface even through a category 5 cyclone.
Jeff Allen: Wow. At least efforts are made in order to try to duplicate the kinds of pressures that they would actually realize out there in the real world. Now, I thought of a weather situation here, Zach. This would have to have some kind of damaging impact on the solar panels or on my installation as a whole – that would be hail. I would imagine that there has to be some kind of concern that you or other people in the solar industry might have about installations being able to withstand the damaging impacts of hailstones.
Zach Campeau: Well, you probably wouldn't believe me. I sound like a broken record at this point but we do actually have a certification for that as well. What they do is, they take ice balls that are an inch, an inch-and-a-quarter in diameter and they stuck them in an air gun, almost like a potato cannon, and they start firing them at the solar panel, at different parts of the panel as well, and then we measure the power. The official certification level is about 5% power loss after all those hits. If we think about it, 5% power loss is actually a lot of power loss. That's one hailstorm. Imagine you have one of these hailstorms, I don't know, every five years – a very severe hailstorm. You can actually start having significant power loss.
It's very important to understand how the particular solar technology you're looking at handles these types of impacts and the cracking in the solar cells that can happen from them because the same sort of impact stresses that you have from hail, you can have from shipping; from installation; from maintenance. It's important for consumers to be aware of how the product or the technology that they're looking at deals with these types of stresses. Even if a solar cell within the panel does get cracked, what happens? Understand how that could affect their investment.
Jeff Allen: It would be something to actually see kind of those tests and to see the kind of types of damage that the cells themselves can withstand. When I think about it, 5% power loss – while you say it's actually pretty large – I think about it in terms of the 95% of the power that wasn't lost. Really when you think about it, the amount of loss is probably a little smaller than I think most people would consider at first blush.
Zach Campeau: Fair point because, coming from reliability, it's my job to obsess about the tenths of percents.
Zach Campeau: So thank you for a little perspective there. As an anecdotal story, we had a site in Phoenix that had several thousand panels. It was a typical commercial roof with that white TPO membrane plastic that covered most of it. They had fist-sized hail and they had to file an insurance claim to repair the numerous gouges in the roof. The part that was covered with solar panels was completely fine. Actually, it almost served as armor for the roof, more than anything else.
Jeff Allen: Oh my goodness. You could probably say that – well, that is not necessarily a typical scenario but it just goes to show how durable the materials are in the solar cells that are being able to withstand the kinds of damages that only Mother Nature could dish out.
Jeff Allen: Zach, as we kind of wrap up our conversation here today, I was wondering if you had any thoughts about maybe some other questions that are weather-related about solar energy, about the power that these installations can in fact continue to generate even during the worst of the worst case scenarios.
Zach Campeau: Two stresses come up a lot, which we haven't covered. One is, extreme heat, which is very similar to extreme cold. It's rare, or nearly impossible, that the actual weather would get above the operating range of a panel, which is 185 degrees Fahrenheit. The heat question comes up but it's straightforward.
Something that we also get a lot of questions about is salt exposure because people want to put solar panels on their beach house or maybe they're just near the coast. In those cases, it's important to understand if there are any limitations or clauses within the warranty that would exclude that sort of an installation. By and large, solar panels can be designed to survive in that environment but you need to make sure that the products you're looking at are appropriate for it because of course it all comes down to the design and the material choices.
Jeff Allen: Zach, thank you so much for spending some time chatting with us today and kind of setting the record straight. Hopefully, this information will help our listeners understand that even if their businesses are located someplace where it's not an average of 72 degrees and sunny most of the time, that solar power can still be a very viable option for them. Again, I want to thank you so much for your time today.
Zach Campeau: It's my pleasure. Thank you, Jeff.
Jeff Allen: That's Zach Campeau. I hope that you enjoyed this visit with Zach. This is the second time we've had a chance to chat with him. We appreciate his being able to once again come by and share his information and expertise with us.

According to the Operational Programme "Greece-Bulgaria 2014-2020", "the health status indicators in the cross-border area have not been satisfactory for a long time, despite the satisfactory levels (in terms of quantity) of healthcare infrastructure in the area, indicating a lack of effectiveness and proper spatial distribution of such resources.
The rise of poverty in the cross-border area now exerts increased pressure on health care systems, while it also places vulnerable groups (which have a significant presence in the CB area) at increased risk of peril. At the same time, economic recession and disinvestment prevent many CB area inhabitants from gaining access to healthcare services (uninsured civilians).
Health inequalities in the CB area are shaped by the inequalities in availability, access and quality of services, by the financial burden these impose on people, and even by the linguistic, cultural and gender-based barriers that are often embedded in the way in which clinical practice is conducted.
Supply gaps are still a reality in the border-zone or buffer area, making the extension of health service networks across the border a priority concern. Further, service delivery reforms are needed to transform conventional healthcare delivery into primary care, optimizing the contribution of health services – local health systems, health-care networks, health districts – to health and equity while responding to the growing expectations for better health performance.
Especially in the low income parts of the CB area, the opportunity exists to reorient existing health services towards primary care, to improve the health of affected communities".
Increased capacity and effectiveness of the primary health-care system – which exhibits better territorial and social coverage than secondary and tertiary health-care, and more specifically (a) increased diagnostic and therapeutic procedures provided at primary healthcare level and (ii) increased quality and efficiency of primary health-care.
Diversion of a significant volume of health care visits from secondary and tertiary facilities to primary care facilities.
Increased access to healthcare for vulnerable groups and marginalized communities with high CB Mobility.
The total amount to be granted for the current Programming Period (2014-2020) within the "Greece-Bulgaria" Programme for projects within the Priority Axis 4 will be equal to 18,341,234.00 €, while an amount of 12,641,234.00 € will invested on projects within Investment Priority 9a.

Segregation in Education in the USA Essay
Length: 728 words (2.1 double-spaced pages)
Rating: Good Essays
In 1950, America had come out of World War Two and was once again one
of the richest and strongest nations but there still was a group of
people who didn't have the freedom and the equal rights that most
Americans had. This group of people had been slaves for the American
people until 1865 and had always faced discrimination and violence
despite there help in the war effort. The blacks of America had a
dream that things would soon change for them and that they would have
the same opportunities and the same rights that the white Americans
had but this seemed an impossible dream due to segregation, the
"separate but equal" rule in which white and black people of America
were separated in public places e.g. Toilets and buses. "Jim Crow"
laws were also in place in the south, this allowed discrimination
against blacks. The laws were named after a white comedian who gave
abuse to the blacks threw comedy. I will look at Civil Rights
Movement in America and how the Blacks dream began to become reality
when the system of having separate schools for black and white
children in the South began to change.
This was one of the main objectives for the blacks. If they could
desegregate schools then they would gain social acceptance and their
children would grow up together and gradually learn to accept each
other giving blacks social and economic advancement. It was an easy
way to challenge the whites and show that the "separate but equal"
rule was not completely fair. For example, a survey was done in
Claredon Country, South Caroline, which revealed that $13.08 was spent
on blacks education even though 75% of student were black compared t...
...cks who could show how they didn't go as low as the
whites, kept out of any violence and didn't fight back no matter how
tough it was for them.
In conclusion, I believe that on one hand the blacks didn't make much
progress because even by early 1960's only 10% of blacks went to
desegregated schools and Universities were still preventing Blacks
attending but on the other hand they let the world know how badly
treated they were, had shamed America and damaged their image but it
was still not enough to "open the gates of opportunity". Segregation
in Education aroused such emotions as blacks were threatening white
supremacy. It was hard for whites to get used to the idea of them all
being equal after so long but the blacks made some progress due to
their determination not to fight back and their will to keep trying.
The New Era of Learning: The Effects of the Brown vs. the Board of Education
- "Now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksand of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood. Now is the time. I have a dream." – Martin Luther King Jr. It is because of the Brown vs. The Board of Education court case that allows the University of Texas at Austin, along with hundreds of universities, to be deemed diverse. This case opened new doors to racial opportunities that have now become prominent in the current day. What started off as a plea for equality, would change the world in its own way....

School Segregation Now and Then Essay
- "I have a dream!" Martin Luther King once said. He dreamed of a complete desegregated USA and the same chances for everybody where all men are created equal no matter of race or religious background (King). Schools were an immense issue in the 1960s, many black children did not finish high school to help their parents and those who did could often not afford to go to college. Compared to the white schools, the black schools had a massive lack of equipment and the teachers got paid a lot less. Even though many issues have changed since then, there is still segregation left in parts of the U.S., especially in schools.... [tags: racial discrimination, I have a dream]

Light but filling packages of filo pastry. These are a little fiddly to make, but bursting with wonderful flavour and texture. It's important to keep the sheets of filo covered with a damp tea towel to stop them drying out. Serve the parcels with yoghurt mixed with a little lemon juice and freshly chopped mint, and with a side salad.
In a large pan of boiling water, blanch the spinach leaves for 2 minutes. Drain and plunge into a bowl of cold water to refresh. Drain again, then squeeze out the excess moisture with your hands. You'll now have a ball of spinach – chop it finely and leave to one side.
In a large frying pan, heat the oil. Add the onion and fry for a few minutes, until softened. Add the lamb and fry on a medium heat until the mixture has browned all over. Add the cumin and dried mint and season well. Cook for another couple of minutes.
Remove from the heat and add the sumac (or lemon zest) and parsley. Stir to combine. Leave to cool completely, then gently stir in the feta cheese. Run a tea towel under cold water and squeeze until it is damp but not wet.
Unwrap the filo pastry pack and lay the sheets out flat. Use the damp tea towel to cover the sheets you are not using. Brush a non-stick baking tray with a little of the butter. Take a sheet of filo, place on a large board or work surface and fold it once in half to make a square shape. Use a pastry brush to coat the pastry in melted butter.
You can choose how you want to wrap your parcels, but the easiest way is to place about 3 dessertspoons of the lamb mixture to the right of the middle of the pastry sheet, in a rectangular shape, leaving a gap all around. Next, fold the top and bottom edges of the pastry over the lamb mixture, then the right hand edge over the top and gently roll the pastry from right to left to form a fat sausage-roll shape.
Brush the filo with melted butter to seal, then place on the baking tray. Repeat until all the mixture is used. Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes, until the pastry is golden brown and crispy.


For people trying to avoid nicotine addiction, the discovery that some 'nicotine-free' e-cigarette liquids actually contain nicotine will come as unwelcome news.
Australian researchers found nicotine in six varieties of nicotine-free e-cigarette liquids bought online and over the counter from Australian suppliers, highlighting the risks of "little to no regulation", according to the authors of the research published by the Medical Journal of Australia.
Associate Professor Alexander Larcombe, Head of the Respiratory and Environmental Health at the Telethon Kids Institute in Perth, and colleagues analysed 10 e-liquids labelled as nicotine-free with gaschromatography–mass spectrometry in a commercial laboratory.
"Nicotine was detected in six e-liquids; the levels in three (1.3, 1.4, 2.9 mg/mL) were comparable with those of commonly available low-dose nicotine e-liquids," Larcombe and colleagues wrote.
"Of the other chemicals we detected, 2-chlorophenol, classified as acutely toxic by the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals, was identified in all e-liquids. Probably an excipient contaminant, 2-chlorophenol is commonly used in insecticides, herbicides and disinfectants. There is no Safework Australia exposure standard for 2-chlorophenol, but it is known to be a respiratory and dermal irritant.
"Other substances we often detected were 2-amino-octanoic, hexadecanoic, and octadecanoic acids," they wrote.
E-liquids containing nicotine cannot be legally sold in Australia, but the authors pointed out that due to "inaccurate labelling", that purchasers may unwittingly inhale "this addictive substance", or retailers may sell incorrectly labelled nicotine-containing e-liquids to "willing customers". None of the purchased e-liquids disclosed ingredient information beyond "vague reporting of the excipient mix and the absence of nicotine".

Have you ever had to wade through mounds of inventory to find the products you need for an order? If a warehouse isn't kept organized and up-to-date, then disaster can be imminent. This is something you definitely want to avoid when striving for fast deliveries without any hiccups.
Organizing a warehouse goes way beyond just putting a box on a shelf. In this modern day, warehouse productivity is a huge factor when it comes to eCommerce and 2 day shipping. How can you upgrade your system for success?
Here are our 3 biggest tips for warehouse productivity.
Go ahead and take a minute to study your warehouse. What does it look like? Are there boxes crowding the aisles, packing materials all over the place or other supplies creating clutter? This is the first step to boosting productivity and freeing up valuable space. Clear out or recycle any empty boxes and organize materials so there is space for workers to move about easily. Label shelves to know exactly where to look without guessing.
Travel time can take away from how quickly you can fulfill an order, because you need to make several trips collecting products to bring to the picker. Reduce the amount of touches and ultimately time wasted by combining small orders into one travel. Save bulk items for the last leg of transport, taking them directly from the pallet to the final staging area.
The picking path is where the magic happens. Without a clear path to find goods and move them to the final staging area, the flow of productivity can be negatively affected. Study the layout of the warehouse to determine the best way to move products and strategically place pickers. Don't forget to keep safety in mind by eliminating blind spots for forklifts.

Regulatory and Standards
Candidate for FCC chairman reveals priorities at confirmation hearings
By TVTechnology 19 June 2013
Tom Wheeler, the White House's nominee to be the next FCC chairman, explained to the Senate Commerce Committee his top challenges if confirmed for the job. Except for the broadcast auctions, none involved traditional OTA television broadcasting.
A staff memo circulated before the hearings listed the carrying out of the spectrum auctions and the creation of a public safety network as Wheeler's top priorities. This was followed by the transition from analog switched networks to Internet protocol (IP) delivery networks and, finally, the continued expansion of broadband networks.
Wheeler, 67, who earlier served as chairman of the FCC's Technological Advisory Council and was a former head of the National Cable & Telecommunications Association and CTIA: The Wireless Association, is also a venture capitalist and former lobbyist. He was a former fundraiser for President Obama.
Wheeler called himself "an unabashed supporter of competition," adding that he believes the government should help improve public access to broadband networks, promote universal service and enhance public services. He said his business experience has convinced him that the FCC needs to promote competition over regulation.
"Competition is a power unto itself that must be encouraged," he told the senators. "Competitive markets produce better outcomes than regulated or uncompetitive markets."
As to the spectrum auctions, Wheeler said they should be expedited rather than slowed, as the broadcasters have advocated. "I think it is absolutely crucial that the incentive auction move on an expedited schedule," Wheeler said. But he also noted that would be a challenge.
"The incentive auction is something that has never been tried before," he said. "I liken it to a Rubik's cube. On one side of the cube you have to provide incentive for broadcasters to want to auction their spectrum. On another side of the cube you have to provide a product in a way that incentivizes the wireless carriers or however the bidders may be to want bid for that spectrum. And then in the middle, on an almost real-time basis you have to have a band plan that is constantly changing to reflect the variables. That is why this has never been tried before. This is a monumental undertaking."
On many hot-button topics, Wheeler avoided controversy. He said merger reviews would be analyzed according to the facts and legal precedents. As to the FCC's authority in retransmission disputes, Wheeler said he needed more time to study the issue after the courts make their decisions. "I look forward to looking into that issue and getting my arms around it," he said.
On the E-rate program, Wheeler pledged to support and expand it. E-rate is the name for the Schools and Libraries Program of the Universal Service Fund. The program provides discounts to assist most schools and libraries in the United States (and U.S. territories) to obtain affordable telecommunications and Internet access.
Wheeler has vowed to divest his stakes in AT&T Inc, Dish Network Corp, Google Inc. and dozens of other tech and telecoms companies if he is confirmed. Wheeler's plan was disclosed in an agreement posted online by the Office of Government Ethics.
Within 90 days of being confirmed by the Senate as FCC chairman, Wheeler plans to leave his investment company and divest holdings in 78 companies, Reuters reported.
The investments include Apple Inc, Microsoft Corp, China Mobile Ltd, tactical radio maker Harris Corp., Windstream Corp. and media companies Liberty Media Corp, News Corp, Time Warner Inc. and Time Warner Cable Inc.
Wheeler will also drop investments in the four biggest U.S. wireless operators: Verizon Communications Inc, AT&T, Sprint Nextel Corp. and Deutsche Telecom AG, which owns T-Mobile.
He also pledged that, until he is divested, he would not "participate personally and substantially" on any matter that might have a direct effect on those financial interests.
Wheeler would take over an FCC at a crossroads in its authority with new technologies. Much of its power was based on the regulation of outdated phone company technology and might not extend into the Internet age. A federal appeals court is expected to decide whether the FCC can bar Internet companies from giving preference to certain traffic later this year in a case brought by Verizon testing the FCC's authority.
Public-interest groups think Wheeler is far too cozy with the corporate interests he would regulate.
"The Federal Communications Commission needs a strong leader — someone who will use this powerful position to stand up to industry giants and protect the public interest," Craig Aaron, president and CEO of Free Press, a consumer interest group, told the Wall Street Journal. "On paper, Tom Wheeler does not appear to be that person, having headed not one but two major trade associations."
In addition to keeping a personal blog — www.mobilemusings.net — on technology policy, Wheeler has written a book on Abraham Lincoln's use of the telegraph. The title is "Mr. Lincoln's T-Mails."

An problems for the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) can cause severe osteoarthritis in both animal and human patients. Now, a brand new interdisciplinary study on the protein that lubricates our joints says that lubricant might actually be considered a precursor of osteo-arthritis.
The paper, published Oct. 7 in Scientific Reports, could be the first that investigates the role of a protein, called lubricin, in ACL-type injuries in dogs. It might likewise have larger implications for similar injuries in humans plus the possibility of treatments and therapeutics.
"Lubricin is essential for normal joint function and the lubrication of cartilage," said Heidi Reesink, Ph.D. '16, the Harry M. Zweig Assistant Professor in Equine Health at the school of Veterinary Medicine (CVM) and senior author on the paper. "We all know that if an individual or animal doesn't make that protein, they shall develop devastating osteo-arthritis affecting most of the major weight-bearing joints."
Lubricin is universal to mammals, including humans, though there's conflicting data regarding its role in joint injuries. Reesink's study unearthed that, in canine patients that had suffered a ligament tear in the knee, lubricin increased within the joint — the alternative of conventional assumptions in medicine. "The dogma in this field has been that lubricin decreases in osteo-arthritis," Reesink said.
In three canine patients that had a joint injury, lubricin dramatically increased in the proper time taken between their initial injury but before any signs of arthritis inside their X-rays.
"This suggests that the clear presence of increased lubricin may be a biomarker for predicting future osteoarthritis," said Reesink. "We also saw increased lubricin in dogs months to years when they injured their ACLs, suggesting that lubricin might be an indicator of ongoing joint instability."
Reesink said increased lubricin could consequently be described as a signal for clinicians to intervene or here is another different therapy approach.
Reesink and her collaborators laid the groundwork because of this new study by completing a systematic report on the literature surrounding lubricin in both human and veterinary medicine. The review waspublished come july 1st in the journal Cartilage and Osteoarthritis.
The overall finding of the review: There's absolutely no unified consensus how lubricin is altered in other domestic veterinary species and in human joint injury, demonstrating the requirement for further study — which Reesink's new paper did.
"In taking a look at horses and dogs, we're seeing exactly the same pattern," she said. "The strongest bit of data should be to show it in humans aswell."
Reesink and her collaborators caused the Cornell Veterinary Biobank to have samples. The biobank supports CVM researchers along with scientists around the world, using biological samples collected from both ill and healthy animals at the Cornell University Hospital for Animals (CUHA). The samples are processed, provided and catalogued to researchers, which accelerates biomedical research.
Among the motivators with this scholarly study, said Reesink, is a many cases in the little animal orthopedic section at CUHA is knee ligament injury, that is common in dogs.
"We could help both animals and humans by potentially picking out better diagnostics, by more fully focusing on how these molecules work and designing therapies advantageous to both, by firmly taking advantageous asset of these occurring cases and improving orthopedic care naturally," Reesink said.
In the veterinary realm, Reesink's team plans to complete a follow-up longitudinal study in dogs, examining multiple time points in a patient's injury, recovery and treatment process. They also aspire to draw similar connections in human ACL as well as other orthopedic injuries.
Currently, Reesink is examining parallel samples from the Cornell Veterinary Biobank and a medical facility for Special Surgery, using funding from the pilot grant from the Weill Cornell Medicine Translational and Clinical Science Center.

Do Try This at Home: oneTesla's DIY Kits Electrify Imaginations
Heidi Baumgartner '14 demonstrates oneTesla's kits at the 2013 World Maker Faire in New York City. Image: Courtesy oneTesla
Heidi Baumgartner '14 (Course 8, physics) has the ultimate high-voltage career. She and Course 6 student (electrical engineering and computer science) Bayley Wang run Medford, Massachusetts–based oneTesla, which manufactures spark-shooting DIY Tesla coils. "They do fun things like play music and shoot lightning," she says. An online tutorial provides an in-depth explanation of how they work, and a gallery shows off kit users' creations performing everything from Bach to the theme from Star Wars.
The company took root after going viral on Kickstarter. But in true MIT tradition, the original idea blossomed from simple tinkering and collaboration.
Just a couple years ago, Baumgartner was a mere hobbyist herself, experimenting at MIT's MITERS (MIT Electronic Research Society) hacker space with friends who were already enthusiastic about building their own Tesla coils. This included Wang, who was designing a Tesla coil driver board to sell on eBay.

Baumgartner offered to make Wang a user-friendly website with a manual and photos. "I wanted to build something for hobbyists who might not have in-depth engineering knowledge," she says.
"Basically, you turn it on, shoot lightning, and stand back. It doesn't have a practical application, but it's a fun weekend project that lets people show off their engineering skills.
I was doing it for fun and really expected nothing from it," she says.
Nothing, that is, until a friend brought her to 15.S17 (Application of Advanced Entrepreneurial Techniques), and introduced her as running a "start-up" for Tesla coils. She was reluctant to dub her tinkering a start-up, but she enrolled in the class to keep her project on track anyway.
Good thing she did. "In the meantime, the website I put up started getting actual orders, even though the product wasn't finished," she says. She told those early customers to hold off until she and MITERS colleague Wang—with some early-stage collaboration from another Course 6 student, Daniel Kramnik—launched oneTesla on Kickstarter at the end of 2012, where they hoped to raise $20,000 and sell a modest 100 kits. Turns out, there's a huge market for this kind of DIY fun: Within a week, they'd raised a whopping $100,000.

In fact, their invention was so popular that they shut down the campaign to focus on churning out enough products, first at MITERS and then at Artisan's Asylum creative space in Somerville.
Juggling the side business with school wasn't easy. "This was still a hobby. We were trying to manage the business and a full-time course load.
We learned a lot about the sheer scale of such a job and many difficulties of manufacturing," Baumgartner says.
By her senior year, their original Kickstarter backlog was fulfilled. Now, Baumgartner and team work from a bigger Medford office with several employees. Part-timers work on packaging up to 100 parts, instructions, and circuit boards for mailing; an intern (first-year MIT undergrad Ryan Berg) works on mechanical engineering design; a full-time employee handles customer service; and Wang spearheads electronic design. "I do a lot of the other things that keep the business running," Baumgartner laughs.
The original design is now out of stock. Shortly after Baumgartner graduated, they launched another Kickstarter campaign and raised even more money—about $336,000. To that end, the oneTesla team has designed a new and improved kit called oneTeslaTS ($399), scheduled for completion in March 2015, as well as a smaller kit called tinyTesla ($199). They're currently at work on about 2,000 new orders for eager DIY engineers and garage hobbyists.
"They're the ultimate home science project," she says. "We see people who want to get their kids interested in electronics, high school students participating in science fairs, and some universities who use the coils for classroom demos."
Baumgartner hopes to expand oneTesla's audience to include online retailers and school science lab suppliers. "But we need to get the manufacturing down and ship the preorders before pursuing that," she says. "After a lot of work last fall, our new Tesla coils will come in pretty nice packaging!"
Does she plan on a Tesla coil empire? Maybe, but another idea has—ahem—sparked her interest. Soon enough, the accidental entrepreneur hopes to attend graduate school for electrical engineering.

National Burger Month may be winding down, but we have an entire summer ahead of us to fire up the grill. With several months of backyard barbecues and al fresco dinners ahead of us, there's plenty of time to go beyond beef and try some palate-pleasing patties made from chicken, turkey, beans, veggies, quinoa and more. Think outside the bun with these 18 Blow-Your-Mind Burgers that are Anything-But-Beef.
Last week, I may have waxed poetic about my love for a good hamburger with A Dozen Big, Bad, Beefy Burgers that are To-Die-For, but burger perfection doesn't limit you to beef. Maybe you don't eat meat, perhaps you want a leaner option, or quite possibly you're just in the mood for something different — that doesn't mean you have to miss out on moist, flavorful burgers. Chicken or turkey provide a great base for all kinds of herbs and spices and toppings. With so many options for beans and veggies, they provide a great flavor base in and of themselves. And for something completely different, there's even quinoa or salmon, which provide superfood nutrition in your comfort food classic.
So whether you are vegan or vegetarian, prefer poultry, savor seafood, or just have a hankering to try something new, you're going to love the recipes in this collection of 18 Blow-Your-Mind Burgers that are Anything-But-Beef. Check them all out by clicking "Launch Gallery" above. To PIN the entire collection, you can pin the collage below.

I Know What the SDI in Samsung SDI Stands For, and You Won't Believe It
How's that for click bait? But it's actually true.I didn't know what the SDI of Samsung SDI actually stood for. So I tried to discover. It is harder than you think to find out, partially because the answer is a bit too cute, and so I guess they stopped pretending it stands for anything. But back at the end of the last century, they said:
The new name, Samsung SDI, stands for Samsung with the initial letter S, 'Display' and 'Digital' with D and 'Interface' and 'Internet Component' with I.
I said you wouldn't believe it.
In fact, Samsung SDI actually makes displays and, more relevant for this post, "energy storage solutions."
Batteries for Electric Vehicles
There are multiple changes going on in the automotive industry simultaneously (for example, see my post Triple Witching Hour for Automotive). The result of this is that sometimes all the trends get mixed up together. But the big driver(!) of the switch from ICE to electric traction is battery technology and the charging infrastructure that goes with it. (In our industry, ICE usually means in-circuit emulation, but in automotive it is internal combustion engine, just in case that isn't obvious.)
Unfortunately, battery technology does not have it's Moore's Law with fast exponential growth or we could run our cars on a AAA cell by now. As an aside, hard disk devices (HDD) have managed to grow even faster even though they only depend secondarily on Moore's Law for the electronics, but luckily smart people kept working out new ways of writing bits onto rotating media, which is just as well, or until SSDs (flash disk drives) came along we'd have been stuck with computers with gigabytes of RAM and tens of megabytes of disk for permanent storage.
At the Ludwigsburg Congress, Hanho Lee of Samsung SDI presented on The Future of Electromobility and Automotive Batteries. He is the leader of product planning, market intelligence and communications, which sounds like he has lot on his plate. Anyway, that day he was in communication mode. Some of what he talked about is what Samsung is doing, but he had a huge amount of interesting data of wide applicability.
Drivers to the Growth of Electromobility
The chart above shows the hurdles to electromobility (so lower on the graph is good, "down and to the right"). Initially a mixture of high gas prices and big government incentives (both in the forms of subsidies for electric cars, and, in Europe especially, very high taxes on gasoline). But initial vehicles were early adopter products for people who were especially green (and really wanted other people to see it). Then various premium vehicles such as the Tesla Model S entered the market and were reasonably successful. If the cost of electric traction is a fixed cost, mostly batteries, then it is easier to support that in a premium vehicle. We now have many vehicles, since every manufacturer knows it has to have a product in the space, and has to find out the issues first hand.
Today we are at the blue star in the middle, which Hanho considers an inflection point in the short term. Two headwinds are the increase in the price of the metals that go into batteries, and scheduled removal of many government subsidies. So he sees two trajectories to the same end point: an increase in the barriers short term, before electric traction wins, or the barriers keep gradually falling.
Purchasing a car, just like any product, has a sort of funnel. For electric vehicles, it is:
Awareness (96% of US consumers, versus 100% for ICE)
Familiarity (50%, versus 100%)
Consideration (29%, versus 96%)
Purchase (4%, versus 73%)
So what puts people off:
Driving distance (23%)
Charging issues (32%)
Price premium over ICE (21%)
Fuel saving compared to ICE, this one is a benefit (10%)
There is a big gap between driving range and expectation. It turns out that the average daily driving distance is 43.3km. If you ask consumers what an acceptable driving range is for a single charge, you get a big range(!) as in the chart below:
I have seen this sort of analysis before. Indeed, despite being in the "aware" stage only (I've never ridden in an electric vehicle), I've done it myself. My average driving distance includes days when I work from home, or weekend days when the only places I go are ones I walk to, so 0 km, which can make the average be 43.3km even though my driving is (say) 80km on the days I use my car. But more to the point, I think people worry not about the average, however calculated, but how they will manage on the days when they need to do a lot of driving. I like going to Yosemite, and there are days when I have to drive to San Francisco and back, and maybe go and drop something off at my daughter's house in the East Bay. Of course, those are only very occasional trips, and it wouldn't cost that much to rent an SUV every time I go to Yosemite, but it would for sure be a hassle.
As a battery manufacturer, Samsung SDI has obviously done a lot of research on what the real numbers are, and the peak of satisfaction/utility seems to be at 350-400km (200-250 miles). That covers average daily range per fuel-up. Average long distance trip is 450-500km (in US, over 500km) and the top of the range is sort of the limit on how far you would want to drive in a single day on a trip.
But things are improving every year, as shown in the graph below (this one is "up and to the right" means good):
Making a Simple Battery Is Easy—Making a Good Battery Is Very Hard
I'm not going to go into all the details of battery chemistry that were presented, but it is good to understand how a modern battery is built (this does not apply to lead-acid batteries in ICE cars, for example). There are really three parts, an anode, a cathode, and an electrolyte. Typically these are all thin films of material that are laid on top of each other, with some separator layers. Then to make them a reasonable shape, these are then rolled up like a Swiss roll (no idea why the Swiss get credit for these) into typically a cylindrical shape. Your computer battery may be square but if you are foolish enough to break it open you'll find it contains several cylindrical cells.
I said I won't go into the details, but if you want to sound intelligent at parties (what sort of parties do you go to?) then here is the way to bet:
Nickel-rich cathode
Artificial graphite with silicon for the anode (but silicon swells up as it holds the lithium ions causing mechanical issues)
Prismatic and pouch cells replacing cylindrical ones, since the density of battery stuff to inert stuff is higher
The first thing to know about charging is that charger coverage is actually high. And the reason is obvious: I bet you don't have a gas pump in your garage. However, most EV charging is done at home or destination (office, hotel, shopping center). Not surprisingly, almost everyone with an EV has a charging system at home, and so 96% of users make use of at (or near) home charging. Only a limited amount of charging for long-distance driving is required, compared to the number of gas stations. It seems that only 19% of users charge "on the road". Less than half of users also charge at destinations, the two big ones being public spaces, and at work. See the graph below:
By the numbers, things look pretty good. In Germany, there are 3,000 cars per gas station (I think this actually means per gas pump but I'm not sure), but only 34 per electric vehicle charging station (yes, really: there are 43,212 cars and 1,254 charging stations). The US number is 140 (289,770 cars and 2,070 charging stations).
But that ignores one critical factor: it takes three to five minutes to fill up a car. Fast charging takes over 30 minutes, normal charging is 10+ hours, but since that usually means overnight when you are sleeping and not using your car, that is fine. But if you are on the road, and you need to "fill up" your EV, you don't want to have to slowly drink a cup of coffee you didn't even want while your car charges. So there is a lot of demand for fast charging. The crucial thing is the resistance in the cell, since that causes heat, which has to be dissipated, and this is the limiting factor.
The Future of Electromobility
There have been huge changes in the price and energy density of lithium ion batteries since they were first introduced 25 years ago. This was driven by their use in computers, of course, not primarily by EV technology.
But further advancement is needed to affect the critical $/Kwh point. Future battery packs soon to be launched should achieve the magic 750Wh/litre (now there's a unit of measurement that I bet you've never seen before) and thus achieve a battery pack at around $6,000 and a driving distance over 350km, which is the magic (down and to the right) quadrant in the graph below:
At around this point, the total cost of ownership to consumers between EV and ICE achieve parity, which is the holy grail for mainstream takeoff of electric vehicles.

Buy Art Fair @Spinningfields
Celebrating its fifth year, the north's leading art buying event, Buy Art Fair, will return to Spinningfields in Manchester from 27 to 30 September this year. Its sister event, The Manchester Contemporary, will run alongside Buy Art Fair making it one of the largest art fairs outside London.
Sponsors this year include Manchester's Spinningfields and The Avenue as well as Hetherington Newman, bespoke furniture and architectural joinery specialists based in Knutsford, Cheshire. In addition, a wealth management company, a major law firm and the operator for the north's most prestigious restaurant group, are also about to sign as sponsors.
"During the past five years, the fair has sold work by a range of artists including Damien Hirst, Tracey Emin, Rolf Harris and Vic Reeves."
Buy Art Fair will host 50 galleries from across the UK exhibiting works from over 500 established and popular artists. The Manchester Contemporary, now in its fourth year, will continue to focus on a small number of selected UK and international galleries showing the work of exciting emerging contemporary artists.
Affordable, original
Buy Art Fair, working in partnership with Manchester City Council, the Arts Council, Own Art and the Contemporary Art Society, provides a relaxed setting for art enthusiasts to see and buy the latest affordable original art with prices ranging from £50 to £5,000. The event now attracts over 5,000 people each year from across the north of England, ranging from first time buyers to collectors and curators who, since the event started in 2008, have increased their art spend at the fair by 70 per cent.
Visitors to this year's Buy Art Fair can expect to see works from galleries including Erpen, Art Republic, Cloud Galleries, Bleach Box, Tom Lewis and Webbs Fine Art, to name a few.
Speaking about Buy Art Fair, managing director Thom Hetherington, commented: "During the past five years, the fair has sold work by a range of artists including Damien Hirst, Tracey Emin, Rolf Harris and Vic Reeves."
"We are passionate about art and making a way of purchasing original and affordable work possible. It has been rewarding to see the event create a sustainable northern art market in a city which boasts such a dynamic arts and cultural scene."
As well as presenting an inspiring collection of art, Buy Art Fair, along with The Manchester Contemporary, will offer a series of informative talks by prominent figures from the art world.
Critically engaged contemporary art
Running alongside Buy Art Fair is The Manchester Contemporary which will feature critically engaged work from UK and international artists. The Manchester Contemporary will be curated, for the third year, by Manchester-based gallery, The International 3.
Buy Art Fair will return to the thriving hub of Spinningfields in the heart of Manchester and will be housed in a large marquee situated in the centre of Hardman Square, an area surrounded by bars, restaurants and designer shops. A few steps away, in Quay House, The Manchester Contemporary will take up residence for the weekend-long event.

Tomb Raider (2018) | Movie Review [Spoiler Free]
Ever since this movie was announced I was curious to see it. The original movies with Angelina Jolie are two of my favourites and one of the first games I ever remember playing was a Tomb Raider one. So I knew, at the very least, that I would have a good time watching this. However, I missed my chance when it was in theatres until I recently found that it had been put onto Netflix UK.
This by no means a perfect movie, in fact there are a few things I would definitely change or wish were different (I'll get to those soon) but I had fun from start to finish and would consider this a favourite. The story was simple but entertaining and the pacing was fairly good. It definitely works as an origin story and I hope this is going to be the start of a series because I would love to see where things would go from here. Plus, there was definitely room left for more movies to follow.
There were things about the pacing that could have been better. The majority of scenes that happened in the tombs came much later than I was expecting and it did throw me slightly but Lara's adventure does start fairly quickly and so, for the most part, I found the structure satisfying enough. The action scenes were well executed and it's visually pleasing. There are a good mixture of comical scenes and incredibly intense things which stops the movie from ever going stale or repetitive.
On the most basic level the story is entertaining and a lot of what I expected from a Tomb Raider movie. However, saying that, I feel like Lara was underused. First of all, Alicia Vikander did a fantastic job. I loved Lara in this just as much as I have in any previous versions. She was fun, badass, had some depth to her, and I actually loved the fact that although she could fight and was really intelligent, she wasn't Wonder Woman. She had her flaws and she often learnt along the way. It was very satisfying to see her grow as the movie progressed. However, it feels like her character hit a brick wall and they could have gone so much further with her. That being said, it does seem like there were plans (or at least hopes) to make more movies in which I'm sure her character would be developed further and given even more depth.
I do hope that happens. While not perfect, this movie was a good time and did get a lot of things right. There's so much potential for this vision of the Tomb Raider world and characters to be expanded.

Iron Man Experience, Disney Parks' First Marvel-Themed Ride, Opens at Hong Kong Disneyland
Posted by Mickey News | Jan 11, 2017 | Hong Kong Disneyland Resort News | 0 |
Yesterday, the first-ever Marvel-themed attraction at a Disney park – Iron Man Experience – Presented by AIA – opened to the cheers of guests at Hong Kong Disneyland Resort.
The new Iron Man Experience attraction at Hong Kong Disneyland takes you on an epic adventure of a lifetime where you join Iron Man in a battle against the evil forces of Hydra across the city of Hong Kong.
Chairman of Walt Disney Parks and Resorts Bob Chapek joined members of the Hong Kong government to unveil the attraction that brings the Iron Man character to life inside the park.
"We are always pushing the boundaries of creativity and innovation so that our guests can step into the magical worlds of their favorite stories and meet their most beloved characters," said Chapek. "We're thrilled to be adding the high-tech, action-packed universe of Marvel to Hong Kong Disneyland, and we'll continue building on it as we move into the next phase of expansion."
Anchoring a unique storyline, the eminent innovator and pioneer, Tony Stark has selected Tomorrowland in Hong Kong Disneyland to host Stark Expo, where he will show off his latest high-tech creations in various exhibition halls – the Hall of Legacy, the Hall of Protection, the Hall of Energy and the Hall of Mobility. Guests will be among the first to explore Tony Stark's latest innovations up close and fly in a gravity-defying Iron Wing flight vehicle in Iron Man Experience. He has also made Hong Kong the Asia headquarters of Stark Industries hereafter.
Guests will make their way to the Hong Kong Stark Tower powered by the arc reactor and whizz alongside Iron Man through streets that resemble those in West Kowloon and downtown, and fly over iconic Hong Kong landmarks like Tsing Ma Bridge, Victoria Harbour and the city's pristine mountain ranges.
The attraction also features the Iron Man Tech Showcase, which gives guests a personal encounter with Iron Man himself, and the Become Iron Man interactive game. Guests can also choose from a variety of Iron Man-themed food and beverage experiences and merchandise offerings.
The opening of Iron Man Experience continues a period of growth at Hong Kong Disneyland with more on the way in the months ahead. A third resort hotel, Disney Explorers Lodge, will open later in the first half of the year.

Abstract: The differentiation of pulmonary vein (PV) electrograms from atrial far-field signals during PV isolation (PVI) for atrial fibrillation (AF) may be difficult. In addition, owing to highly variable PV ostial sizes, current fixed-diameter circular PV mapping catheters may not yield optimal electrograms. We evaluated an expandable, circular 15–25 mm diameter, 20-pole mapping catheter for PV mapping during sustained AF in 25 patients. After selective PV angiography to define the ostial position and size, the catheter was introduced into each PV and withdrawn to the most stable proximal position, with optimal wall contact ensured by progressive loop expansion. At each PV ostium, electrograms recorded at high resolution (HR) were compared with those recorded at a resolution similar to that of a standard 10-pole Lasso catheter. After PVI performed during ongoing AF, the presence of residual far-field potentials (FFP) under both set-ups was compared. We mapped 97 PV, including 4 pairs with common ostia. In the HR recordings, the PV potentials had greater amplitude (0.5 ± 0.1 vs 0.3 ± 0.1 mV, P = 0.001) and fragmentation, whereas left atrial FFP were minimized. After successful isolation of all PV, FFP were observed in 33% of left superior and 28% of left inferior PV on the HR recordings, compared to 66% and 61%, respectively under normal resolution. Catheter stability and optimal wall contact, in combination with HR electrograms can optimize circumferential PV mapping during AF and improve the discrimination of FFP postablation.

concealing or transferring proceeds to avoid prosecution or a confiscation order (also called Own Funds money laundering).
Assisting another to retain the benefit of crime.
Under section 93A (1) of the CJA88 (as inserted by section 29 CJA93); Section 38 (1) of the Criminal Law (Consolidated) (Scotland) Act 1995; Section 11, Prevention of Terrorism (Temporary Provisions) Act 1989; and Section 50, Drug Trafficking Act 1994.
Assistance occurs where a person is involved in an arrangement with another person, and knows or suspects that the other person is, or has been involved in, or has benefited from drug trafficking or criminal conduct if the arrangement helps the other person to retain or control proceeds directly or indirectly or enables the other person to use the proceeds or to invest them for his benefit. The legislation allows 'disclosure to a constable' which is normally to the FIU of the NCIS. This covers terrorist related activities as well. The penalty for commission of an offence under this section is imprisonment of up to six months, or a fine not exceeding the statutory maximum, or both, on summary conviction. On conviction on indictment, the penalty is imprisonment of up to 14 years, or a fine, or both.
Acquisition, possession or use of criminal proceeds.
Under section 93B(1) of the CJA88 (as inserted by section 30 CJA93); Section 37 of the Criminal Law (Consolidation) (Scotland) Act 1995; Section 54(3) to (6) of the NIEPA91 (as inserted by section 16 CJA93); and Section 51, Drug Trafficking Act 1994.
Acquisition is the offence of use or possession of property which you know or have reasonable grounds to suspect to be the proceeds of drug trafficking or criminal conduct and have acquired at less than full value. The aim of the offence is to prevent criminal proceeds being passed on by criminals to be enjoyed by third parties. Here, the reference is to 'property', rather than to 'funds or investments' as in section 93A ('property' including money).
The penalty for commission of an offence under this section is the same as for assisting another to retain the benefit of crime.
Concealing is disguising, removing or transferring proceeds (directly or indirectly) of drug trafficking or criminal conduct for the purpose of avoiding or helping someone else avoid prosecution. The offence is committed by a person who assisted in the offence if s/he knows or has reasonable grounds to suspect the nature of the property.
Concealing or disguising any property includes concealing or disguising its nature, source, location, disposition, movement or ownership or any rights with respect to it.
The penalty for commission of an offence under this section is exactly the same as for the assisting and acquisition offences.
Failure to disclose knowledge or suspicion of money laundering.
Under section 26B(1) of the DTOA (as inserted by section 18 CJA93); Section 52, Prevention of Terrorism (Temporary Provisions) Act 1989; and Section 39 of the Criminal Law (Consolidated) (Scotland) Act 1995.
This offence only relates to drug trafficking and terrorism and not to proceeds of crime in general. A person is guilty of an offence if, as a result of something he learns in the course of his trade, profession or employment, he does not report a suspicion to a police or customs officer.
There is a question as to whether disclosure is a waiver of professional privilege or a breach of any express or implied duty of confidentiality owed to a customer or client. For example, legal privilege for solicitors. If there is a criminal transaction then disclosure to the police will not constitute a waiver of professional privilege nor will it give actionable grounds for a claim for breach of confidence.
The penalty for commission of an offence under this section is imprisonment of up to six months, or a fine not exceeding the statutory maximum, or both, on summary conviction. On conviction on indictment, the penalty is imprisonment of up to five years, or a fine, or both.
Section 17 of the Prevention of Terrorism (Temporary Provisions) Act 1989, (as amended by section 50 CJA93).
The requirement to report suspicions is not much use if the suspected person is tipped off to the fact that s/he is under investigation. In order to preserve the integrity of an investigation, the offence of 'tipping off' occurs when information or any other matter which might prejudice the investigation is disclosed to the suspect of the investigation (or anyone else) by someone who knows or suspects (or, in the case of terrorism, has reasonable cause to suspect) that: a police investigation into money laundering has begun or is about to begin, or the police have been informed of suspicious activities, or a disclosure has been made to another employee under internal reporting procedures.
The penalty for tipping off is the same as for the failure to disclose offence.
