Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,

Learn to be kind and gentle !!!

Love is all encompassing. It conquers all, even the most hard hearted. If you want an enriched life then learn to be kind and gentle. Learn to spread love and joy. If you want to lead a carefree life, then free yourself from this web- of self constructed walls and unnecessary rules- that you have woven around yourself. ~Latika Teotia

Fragment-based drug design of inhibitors of N.meningitidis DsbD

Multi-drug resistant bacteria represent a significant public health threat. It is critical to develop new ways to treat bacterial infections which target pathways different to those used by current drugs.

Periplasmic Disulfide Bond (Dsb) forming enzymes catalyse the oxidative folding of many toxins and surface proteins required for virulence in a range of pathogenic bacteria including meningitis and gonorrhoea. We are working to develop initial hits obtained from a screened library into higher-affinity ligands using the approach of fragment-based drug design (FBDD).

For the Birds Radio Program: Movie Review: Hairspray

Original Air Date: Oct. 12, 2007

Laura loves living in a world where everyone sings, whether it’s birds in nature or people in a musical. And Hairspray’s main character, as cheerful and plump as a chickadee, filled Laura with cheer.

Duration: 4′18″

When I was a teacher in the late 70s, one of my students saw The Empire Strikes Back at least seven times in the theater. He had the movie pretty much memorized. This was back before people videotaped movies, and DVDs were long in the future, but it still seemed pretty funny to me, imagining someone so obsessed with a movie to see it more than once.

Over the years, I have seen a few movies twice, always when I was bringing someone to see it who hadn’t seen it yet. But I’d never seen a movie three times, much less four or five times, until just this week, when I found myself back in the movie theater seeing the musical Hairspray one last time before it leaves the big screen for good.

What is it about musicals that appeals so much to me? In high school I got into an argument with my brother’s best friend when he said musicals were stupid—that no one on earth breaks into song during daily life. He seemed right–I didn’t know anyone personally who sang through daily life—but it seemed like such a lovely way to live.

Now, of course, I have plenty of friends who sing throughout their lives. They sing to express love every bit as well as Ewan McGregor in Moulin Rouge, a longing for love as well as Frank Sinatra at his best, to shout out their territorial boundaries as well as the Jets in West Side Story. Of course, my friends are birds.

Maybe if Hairspray appeared in theaters during spring or early summer, I’d have been able to get my songs-in-daily-life fix in Minnesota woodlands and prairies. But the movie came out in late July, when bird song was ebbing. I don’t think there was mention of a single bird in the entire film, but the main actress, Nikki Blomsky, was as cheerful and plump as a chickadee, and the point of the movie was pretty much why we’re happiest and most successful when we live in friendly, inclusive flocks the way chickadees do, and when we sing and dance to prove our moral superiority rather than duking or nuking it out.

It’s easy to imagine a lot of musicals as bird productions. I could easily picture a Scissor-tailed Flycatcher singing “Oh, What a Beautiful Morning!”, a crow collecting shiny objects and singing the Little Mermaid’s song. “Look at this stuff. Isn’t it neat? Wouldn’t you think my collection’s complete?” or a Blue Jay squawking about every little trouble in River City. And every love song ever written has been sung by birds, only in different languages and notes. Anticipating love. Falling in love. Mockingbirds without mates sing literally all night long, all about the tragedy of unrequited love and their hopes that one fine day someone will look at them and know their love was meant to be. Cardinals and Rose-breasted Grosbeaks sing their love songs as duets. Cranes, swans and geese sing their own version of “Together wherever we go,” while hummingbird males channel Ricky Nelson’s “Travelin’ Man,” making a lot of stops and having memorable one-night (or, for hummingbirds, one-day) stands. A young Merlin might easily break into a round of Bohemian Rhapsody, starting with “Mama, I just killed a finch. Put a talon to his head, bit his neck and now he’s dead. And mama, it felt good to me.”

Yep—I think it would be hard to think of a musical or a song some bird didn’t sing first, in its own avian way. No—I take that back. There’s one musical no bird would ever want to take part in in any way, shape or form. Cats belong indoors, even in musical form.

Nursing Home Aide Convicted Of Abusing 92-Year-Old Woman: What Are Her Rights?

Nursing Home Blog

SilenceIn a particularly disturbing case of elder sexual abuse, a 22-year-old nursing home aide was convicted of raping a 92-year-old woman at the Cincinnati facility where he worked. The woman, who died within 3 months from an unrelated condition, was confined to her bed and unable to communicate at the time of the rape.

Sadly, such incidents are not rare; in fact, sexual abuse of elders is a common problem in many nursing homes and caregiving facilities across the United States. It can be difficult to tell when an elderly person has been a victim of rape or sexual abuse. For some, it is physically impossible to communicate due to afflictions such as speech issues or dementia. For others, they are able to communicate, but unwilling to do so because of the shame or fear they feel.

The elderly have a right to live in a safe, protected environment where their basic human needs are met and respected. If you have a family member living in a nursing home, it is important to monitor them for signs of sexual abuse, which may include bruising, bleeding, unexplained STDs, pain in the genital area, withdrawal, or scared behavior.

Ultimately, the perpetrator in the Cincinnati case was found guilty of his crimes and convicted of rape, felonious assault, and patient abuse. He is currently facing up to 20 years in prison.

For more information on elder sexual abuse and victims’ rights, reach out to the nursing home abuse lawyers at Garcia, Artigliere & Medby. Call 1-800-281-8515 or visit us online at today.

Navigation and service

Air Passengers Rights in case of denied boarding, cancellation and long delay of flight

The rules of Regulation (EC) No 261/2004 refer both to scheduled and to non-scheduled flights including flights within the framework of package tours.

Body responsible for complaints and enforcement in Germany

The LBA, Federal Aviation Office, is the competent authority for the implementation of Regulation (EC) No 261/2004 in Germany. Under this task the LBA analyses on the basis of the complaints the individual air carriers’ policies.

In the first instance, the LBA, Federal Aviation Office, will investigate your complaint and initially evaluate whether there is an infringement of Regulation (EC) No 261/2004. Where there is no apparent infringement or the LBA is not the competent enforcement body you will be informed accordingly as soon as possible.

However, if the possibility of infringements of Regulation (EC) No 261/2004 exists, the LBA, Federal Aviation Office, causes the air carriers to eliminate systematic infringements of the EC Regulation. If necessary, sanctions will be imposed consisting of fines. The aim is to ensure proper implementation of the consumer protection regulation according to EC law in Germany and to reduce the causes for passenger complaints.

The LBA, Federal Aviation Office, is not in a position to enforce your possible claims legally. You can only assert your claims according to the procedures provided for in the respective applicable law.

Forms of the Luftfahrt-Bundesamt, on Regulation(EC) No 261/2004

In case of complaints addressed to the Luftfahrt-Bundesamt, Federal Aviation Office, we kindly ask you to exclusively use the forms available (see above). The questionnaires filled in may be sent by e-mail, fax or letter to the following addresses:

Luftfahrt-Bundesamt headword: passenger rights, D - 38144 Braunschweig

fax: + 49 (0) 531 / 2355 2599

If you need initial information, the aviation safety hotline of the Luftfahrt-Bundesamt will be at your disposal from Monday to Thursday from 10:00 a. m. to 13:00 p. m., phone: + 49 (0) 531 2355 115.

Sesame seeds are tiny, flat seeds that have a delicate, nutty flavor and crunch suitable for seasoning a variety of ethnic dishes. Depending on the variety, sesame seeds may be black, yellow, red or white. The seeds are packed with calcium, iron, zinc, magnesium, vitamin B1 and fiber. Sesame seeds are often roasted, and then ground and sprinkled over vegetables, meat dishes, noodles, breads, cereals or fruits, or combined with other ingredients to make dips, dressings, sauces or spreads. Grinding sesame seeds isn't difficult.

Sesame seeds have been used throughout the world since ancient times.

Step 1

Place a small handful of sesame seeds in a blender container. Turn the blender on pulse for three or four seconds. Avoid pulsing the sesame seeds for more than a few seconds, or the seeds may clump together. Attempting to grind too many seeds at once may also result in clumping.

Step 2

Use alternative methods to grind sesame seeds if you don't own a blender. Grind the seeds in a coffee grinder that hasn't been used for coffee, as the flavor of coffee will affect the sesame seeds. Seeds can also be ground with a mortar and pestle or a hand-operated spice grinder.

Step 3

Use the ground sesame seeds as desired. For the best flavor, grind sesame seeds just before you plan to use them.

Joy Dare Monday ... Lenten Awareness

Work has been really busy and if it wasn't for the book I'm reading for Lent, I'd forget it was even Lent! ... no, that's not true. I've spent much of the week working on Holy Week for church (which is where I work), which has included some creative work that I am grateful for.

Some interesting discoveries this week, or re-discoveries in a couple of cases. Plenty of things to be grateful for. I guess part of this counting of 1,000 gifts is the remembering, the relearning.

My lessons this past week seem to be surrounding pride, and letting go of the outcome and accepting of something new that's been tried has failed.

181. getting home before it rains
182. heating
183. pound cake and lemon curd
184. hubby wearing headphones while playing SimCity so I wouldn't be disturbed
185. on the road to rediscovering being present with Jesus
186. deep royal blue of twilight
187. the planets (Venus, Jupiter) lining up under the moon
188. new growth on bushes
189. unexpected lunch
190. girl scout cookies
191. finding out the name of my Jehovah's Witness lady ('cause I'd forgotten)
192. dandling a baby to calm me after the staff meeting
193. moonlit cloud
194. short day @ work
195. burst of warm sun when I emerged from deli with my breakfast
196. hard midnight conversations
197. heat of sun
198. sick puppy
199. playing with liturgy
200. relaxing
201. the knowledge I don't sacrifice enough

Am linking this up to Ann Voskamp's "multitudes on Mondays" (or will as soon as it goes up!)

Marketing Students Get a High-Level View on NYC Trip

LeBow students Taylor Menser and Chandni Shah at SAP's New York City offices

The participants in the August trip to New York City, organized by LeBow’s Undergraduate Career Services, came away with new perspectives. The students, nearly all marketing majors, gained insights on potential career paths and entering the workforce, courtesy of several Drexel alumni, and they, along with the faculty and staff members who came along, saw New York City in a new way: from more than 50 stories up.

That high-level view came from a site visit to SAP, the second stop on a day that started with a jaunt through the teeming, modern workspaces at Google. Jamie Blomquist, a Class of 2009 graduate and a 2010 MBA graduate, led the students’ tour through Google’s largest office in New York City; the company also has offices in the Chelsea Market building, which it owns. Blomquist detailed her path to Google – completing an MBA to wait out the worst of the global recession, starting out in real estate, then working at an advertising agency – and explained her day-to-day work in Google’s Sales and Consulting division.

Along the insights from Blomquist and several other current Google employees, the big draw for students was the bells and whistles of the offices. Some employees use scooters to get around the building, a former New York Port Authority building near the High Line, which encompasses a full city block. The offices are filled with kitchens, breakrooms, exercise facilities and other perks that have made Google one of the most desirable places to work for young college graduates of all backgrounds and majors.

After departing Google, it was a short bus ride north to the Hudson Yards complex on Manhattan’s West Side for a tour of SAP’s Leonardo Center, including the Next-Gen Lab, an incubator space for collaborators and community partners with the company’s advanced technology offerings front and center.

SAP was already familiar to a number of students on the trip who had previously worked on co-op at SAP’s offices in Newtown Square, and the site visit also served as a preview of another Next-Gen Lab that will open this fall as part of LeBow’s Center for Business Analytics.

Mark Santerian, a class of 2015 graduate and a senior account manager at SAP, detailed not only his path to his current job but also the importance of building connections through networking and co-op employment. Based in Philadelphia but with clients based all over the Northeast, Santerian hopes to build even stronger ties between his company and LeBow and among Drexel alumni working there.

For Stephanie Arredondo, a junior marketing and business analytics major, the highlight of the trip was the technology on display at SAP and learning about the ways it’s being used to improve customer experience. “It was great to learn firsthand the innovative technologies SAP has developed utilizing machine learning, advanced analytics, VR and more,” she says.

The tour of SAP transitioned into a networking event with Drexel alumni, with the outdoor terrace on the 52nd floor becoming a popular spot for photos. Some of those shots will soon grace students’ LinkedIn profiles – another step in the networking and job-search process.

Woman who used conveyancers to litigate probate dispute told to repay money lost to estate

High Court: licensed conveyancers should not have been instructed

High Court: licensed conveyancers should not have been instructed

A woman who obtained a grant of letters of administration and then used a firm of licensed conveyancers to defend herself against a claim from other potential beneficiaries, has been told by the High Court that she has to pay back to the estate nearly £87,000 given to the firm that has been lost.

Facing legal action to revoke the grant, Andrene Kerr-Robinson instructed Blueprint Property Lawyers, which was not licensed to conduct probate or litigation work.

Master Matthews, sitting in the Chancery Division, said: “Nevertheless, in relation to this case at least, it appears to have done both of these things.”

Blueprint went into insolvent liquidation in early 2014 and was intervened in by the Council for Licensed Conveyancers.

Master Matthews recorded: “The Council of Licensed Conveyancers has apparently disclaimed any liability to indemnify the estate, as the losses it suffered took place in the course of probate and litigation work, which Blueprint was not authorised to carry on. Although one of the employees of Blueprint was a solicitor, the Solicitors Regulation Authority has similarly disclaimed any liability.”

One of Blueprint’s directors told the court that he relied on counsel to conduct the litigation, although Master Matthews was unclear on whether this barrister worked in-house for a separate company or was – as appeared from bills rendered by Blueprint – an employee of the firm.

Master Matthews’ ruling in Lyons & Anor v Kerr-Robinson [2016] EWHC 2137 (Ch) focused on £86,765 that was paid over to Blueprint in 2012 and lost to the estate.

The retainer referred to an agreement that Ms Kerr-Robinson would “immediately transfer into Blueprint’s client account for safe holding the current balance of the funds you presently hold on this matter”.

The money was paid in two tranches either side of an undertaking she gave the court not to dispose of or distribute any assets of the estate until further order. The barrister represented her in court.

Later in 2012, Michael Brindle QC, sitting as a deputy judge, revoked the grant of letters of administration, and ordered her to deliver the assets of the estate to an interim administrator, and not dispose of or deal with the estate assets in the meantime.

However, by then, most if not all of the money had been moved into Blueprint’s office account.

Master Matthews said Ms Kerr-Robinson was in breach of her undertaking in respect of the money paid over after she gave it, and was also in breach in respect of the money paid before “by [later] allowing the monies to be used to pay Blueprint’s legal bills”.

He was highly critical of the bills, in particular the fees for the barrister shown as profit costs at an hourly rate of £550. One invoice charged for 107 hours of his work, carried out over 24 working days, amounting to nearly £59,000.

He said: “On any view this is a large number of hours, at a high rate of charge, even for a partner in a City law firm. For a barrister retained by a small firm of licensed conveyancers, even in the West End of London, it is remarkable. And, in the context of a dispute over an estate worth a few hundred thousand pounds at best, it is extraordinary.”

Even if Ms Kerr-Robinson did not know that Blueprint had transferred the money to office account, as she claimed, “then her failure to take any sufficient steps to ensure that the monies she believed still to be in the client account were safeguarded and transferred to the administrator would mean that she was in breach of the order of Mr Brindle QC”.

Unusually, Master Matthews also offered an alternative analysis, ruling that Ms Kerr-Robinson had not acted reasonably in defending the proceedings.

“I record that, first of all, the defendant engaged lawyers who were in fact not authorised to conduct litigation at all. Second, the defendant agreed to the retainer of Blueprint, including their high charging rates, instructing Blueprint to go ahead, and did not place any kind of cap or limit on the value of the work which Blueprint did or the charges it could make…

“Overall, I am not satisfied that it was proper for the defendant on behalf of the estate and at the estate’s expense to engage Blueprint to defend the defendant in the litigation in which she was involved.”

The master also rejected the submission that he should excuse Ms Kerr-Robinson for any breach of fiduciary duty on the basis that she acted honestly and reasonably.

“In the present case there was no need whatever for the defendant to hand over the estate monies to Blueprint for estate administration, or indeed any other estate purpose. In the retainer letter, there was a reference to transferring those monies to Blueprint ‘for safe holding’. But the monies were safe where they were. Indeed, as it turned out, rather safer.”

As a result, Master Matthew ruled that as “public policy requires that a person who commits an act or omission in breach of an injunction (or in breach of an undertaking in lieu of an injunction) should not be able to profit from it”, Ms Kerr-Robinson had to pay the estate’s administrator the £86,765, plus interest.

Why don’t lawyers do what you ask them to do?

Having been team leader, department head, division head and managing partner, I understand well the frustration (and anger) that managing partners and CEOs voice to me: “We’ve asked them a dozen times, but still they aren’t doing what we need!”

The Loire harvest 2018

The Loire harvest 2018 has begun and vintage is now in full swing. First to be given the go ahead were the Chardonnays destined for sparkling wine, Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir followed by the ban de vendanges in Anjou for Chenin. Growers in Muscadet, Sancerre and Montlouis are all picking grapes this week. Other growers are still holding off for optimum maturity and Cabernet Franc destined for reds will follow that.

I’ll be reporting as we get more news but generally growers are happy with what is coming in to the wineries despite the problems with mildew earlier in the season.

In re Application of Barnwell Enterprises, No. 16-mc-2581 (D.D.C. July 13, 2017) [click for opinion]

Petitioners, an individual and his private investment company, sought discovery under 28 U.S.C. § 1782 from a private equity firm manager located in the District of Columbia. The discovery was for use in pending lawsuits in Uganda and Mauritius, and possibly in proceedings to be filed in other foreign jurisdictions. The U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia granted the application, noting the somewhat "unusual" setting: a single application by two Petitioners to obtain discovery for use in two separate but related proceedings—one brought by the individual and one brought by his company.

Respondent conceded that the court had authority to grant the application, so the court's analysis focused solely on whether it should exercise its discretion to do so, applying the four Intel factors: (1) whether the discovery target is a participant in the foreign proceedings, (2) the nature and receptivity of the foreign tribunals and the character of the foreign proceedings, (3) whether the application was an attempt to circumvent proof-gathering restrictions, and (4) the scope of the discovery request. The court found that all four factors favored granting the application.

First, although Respondent's subsidiary was a party in the foreign proceeding, Respondent was not, and the court found no evidence that Petitioner was attempting to pierce the corporate veil between the two entities. The court also found that there was no reason to believe that Respondent was within the jurisdictional reach of the courts in either Mauritius or Uganda, or that the evidence would be attainable there absent the § 1782 request. Second, Respondent could not point to authoritative proof that that the foreign tribunal would reject the evidence sought. Third, the court observed that § 1782 does not require that the material sought be discoverable or even admissible in the foreign proceedings and so rejected Respondent's argument that the foreign courts prohibit the use of the discovery sought.

Finally, the court found that Petitioners had proposed satisfactory limitations to the subject matter and scope of their original discovery requests—specifically, seeking discovery related only to four Respondent employees. While observing that the international location of documents has been interpreted to be a discretionary factor weighing against granting a § 1782 request, the court noted that this was not a per se bar on the discovery of material located outside the United States. Indeed, the plain language of § 1782 contains no such limitation, but instead provides that discovery may be taken and produced "in accordance with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure," which require production of relevant documents in the respondent's "possession, custody or control." Distinguishing cases where a petitioner attempted to force a parent company to repatriate documents held abroad by a party to the foreign proceedings, the court here found no reason to reject the application simply because it might require the production of documents currently located in other countries.

“The Bible says only one thing about homosexuality, and that is that God gave his only son for it”

Avec le soutien de

She’s an ordained minister, she is vegan, she is a teetotaller and she is gay. With the International Day against Homophobia being celebrated this week, Weekly speaks to Kim Andersen, corporate governance adviser, about the attitude towards homosexuals in Mauritius and whether it has changed since she first arrived in the country 12 years ago.

This week we will be celebrating International Day against Homophobia. What kind of feelings does this date evoke?

It is a reminder of my feelings when I came out to myself because that was probably the most difficult thing of all. At the time, I was 26 and married, with two small children, deeply religious as my career started as an ordained minister in the Methodist church. I had to see a psychologist to come to terms with myself. Those are the kind of feelings that it evokes and being told on a daily basis that I am going to hell by all sorts of people from all sorts of religions or that I must have some kind of mental illness. These are the sorts of misconceptions that I think about today (Thursday – Ed.).

So how do you deal with that?

With love, understanding and a lot of patience. I don’t take anything personally.

What was your first experience as gay when you first came to Mauritius 12 years ago?

One of my first experiences was that the first day that I landed, the first lady I encountered asked me to never tell a living soul that I was gay or I would never work in this country again. She was the HR person of the company I came to work for.

How did that come about?

It was during a normal conversation. She asked me about what my husband did and I told her I did not have a husband. So she tendered the advice.

Which you obviously listened to!

(Laughs) No! In fact, I told everybody.

How did people react?

Twelve years ago, it was a very different Mauritius. I have never been one for public displays of affection but, on occasions, when I have held hands, I have been shouted at on the street. But for the most part, people have been very curious. People here who are gay, have asked me for advice. I have also counselled parents whose children are gay. One as young as 11. It’s easier to deal with if we keep in mind that there are many, many people in this country who are gay. One in four people are gay.

Where do you get these statistics from?

That’s the figure globally, so it should stand here too. And it’s difficult for many people here because they know that if they come out, they will be rejected by their family and that’s an impossible situation to be in in Mauritius. You know, how important family is, how small the community is, how we define ourselves culturally and you can see what a death sentence that can be economically, emotionally etc.

Is there a lot of discrimination against gays here from your experience?

Yes, I lost a contract once from a very, very big company because the CEO found out I was gay and he was a religious man. So I have lost money because of it. But that being said, it’s a lot better than it was 12 years ago. Back then, if a woman said she was divorced, that was a big taboo, so you can imagine what being gay was. But when I brought my wife and children here, people saw that we were not from Mars, that we were a very normal family that did very normal things and I think it really helped a lot of people to see that this was our choice to live a married life. I did not choose to be gay, but I chose to live a very normal, decent, ethical and moral life.

Is it more complicated with a partner who is transgender?

Jasper was born Lorraine, in a female body, but has never identified as female, so she felt that she was displaced in a female body and identified as a straight male. In our family, we call him Jasper, or He as a pronoun. It’s difficult for me as a gay woman to be in a relationship with a person who sees herself as a straight male. So it’s been very difficult for Jasper. We have been in places where we have not felt safe, and we get scared a lot. In the beginning, that made Jasper afraid to leave the house. But I said we could not live like that, so now we just laugh about it. Others are not malicious but simply curious. For example, a little girl walked up to Jasper and asked ‘what are you?’ and Jasper said ‘I am a boy’ and the girl said ‘OK’. You can’t really blame people because if you look at Jasper, it is confusing. I refer to him as a ‘he’ but he is a ‘she’ in the university where it is official. At your book signing event on Saturday, the journalist asked for his name and, without hesitation, he replied that his name was Jasper Andersen. It has taken about six months for that fear to go. There is also this law that somehow it’s illegal – a law criminalising something you are and that is not going to change. Legislation like this is based on fear and people’s ignorance. I feel like telling people, “I am not trying to make you or your children gay, I don’t gamble, drink or smoke, we go to church, we are just boring, normal people going about our lives”.

How do you reconcile being gay with going to church?

Actually the Bible says only one thing about homosexuality, and that is that God gave his only son for it and whosoever believes in him will get eternal life. For God did not come to judge, but to save the world.  I am the ‘whosoever believes in him’. For me, that ends the argument. Even the Quran speaks so much about love and community. Hinduism speaks about Karma. Should we not be focused on these instead?

It’s one thing to interpret these religious texts as you do but quite another to be accepted by those who decide who gets the love of God.

For me, being a Methodist, our church was the first to embrace inclusiveness. I am who I am and I feel loved by God. You live the life the way you want.

Do you understand why so many gays in this country don’t come out?

Yes I do. Religious expectation. Their expectations are man-made, not God-made. And then there is the cultural bias against gays as not being normal. For a ‘good’ or ‘acceptable’ marriage, you have to meet the right person from the right caste, family or educational background. When you break the norm, you become a pariah. However, it’s only when disrupting things that new things are born.

You talk about yourself as a practising Methodist, could you have practised as a minister in your church?

Yes, it’s accepted in our church; that’s why I am in the Methodist church, it’s not our right to judge.

Do people judge a lot in Mauritius?

Yes, but a lot of judging is done silently. I would rather people came up to my face and talked to me frankly. I prefer that to what I call the ‘paintbrush look’.  (She quickly looked me up and down as an explanation.)

How is Jasper handling all this?

Jasper used to come and go. We had a long distance relationship for four years. Last time, I decided to surprise him and took him to Le Morne, and had to stop to get some drinks from a little tabagie and a man there started getting closer to us and staring with such malice. To this day, Jasper won’t even go to that area.

What is your advice to families who have gay children?

My advice to parents or family members of gay children. Do not think you or your loved one has done anything wrong to deserve this. Do not make this about you. Be understanding and loving. One cannot choose one’s orientation but you can choose your lifestyle. Raise your children with kindness and respect and they will not disappoint you.

Signs You Could Sell Your Blog and Make Money

It's Hard to Sell Your Blog if It's Missing These 10 Things

If you want to sell your blog now or in the future and make some money doing it, then you need to make sure that your blog has all of the components that a prospective buyers will be looking for. Review the list below and make sure your blog includes each of the elements described or your chances of selling your blog will be very limited.
of 10

Content Archives

For Sale sign on brick wall
Martin Diebel/Getty Images

A blog with few posts and little content is very difficult to sell because there is undoubtedly limited traffic to it and limited earnings potential. A buyer would need to invest time into building the archives to increase ad revenue. Therefore, you need to bulk up your blog archives before you can expect to sell it and make money doing so.

of 10

Much of the revenue a potential buyer can expect to make from your blog is based on the amount of traffic it gets each day. If your blog gets very little traffic, there is little value to a buyer in terms of making money or connecting with a desirable audience.
of 10

If your blog is filled with spam, has very few incoming links (particularly from high quality blogs and websites), or has a low Google page rank, then it will be hard to sell. Work on increasing your blog's authority and the price you can sell it for will rise, too.

of 10

Desirable Audience

Even a small blog with low traffic can be sold for a profit if the audience that visits that blog is highly desirable. A niche blog that focuses on a highly targeted audience could be exactly what some website buyers want. Of course, the same thing applies to bigger blogs with higher traffic levels. If the audience of a bigger blog is undesirable, it will be harder to sell that blog.

of 10

Active Audience

A highly engaged audience that actively comments on your blog posts and shares your posts with their own audiences can turn even a smaller blog into a site that people will want to buy. By spending time building your community, your blog experiences increased loyalty and increased word-of-mouth marketing. In time, traffic to your blog will grow organically, and that's something that website buyers will pay for.

of 10

Quality Design

If your blog design is terrible, your chances of selling it are significantly reduced. That's because prospective buyers will visit your website, and their first impression can make or break the deal. At the very least, a poor design will reduce the amount of money you can charge for your blog. Use the Blog Design Checklist to make sure your blog design is good before you put your blog on the market.
of 10

A blog that is already generating revenues each month is significantly more attractive to prospective buyers than a blog that makes little or no money each month. Spend time monetizing your blog, so when you're ready to sell it, you can provide proof of its monthly earnings.

of 10

Social Media Presence

If you have a Facebook Page, Twitter profile, Pinterest profile, and other social media profiles for your blog, and those profiles have followings, the value of your blog goes up. Those profiles represent more ways that a buyer can engage with your audience, extend their reach, and make money.
of 10

Transferable Assets

If you can't transfer all assets related to your blog to a buyer, then it will be hard to sell your blog. These assets include your domain name, social media profiles, content, images, files, email addresses, and so on. Be sure to set up your blog and all related accounts so you can hand them over to a buyer.

of 10

No Legal Problems

If your blog violates trademark laws, copyright lawslaws related to the disclosure of material connections, or any other laws that affect bloggers, then you'll have a hard time selling your blog. Make sure your blog is completely compliant with all laws, and you'll be in a much better position to sell it.

The Spiderwick Chronicles - Lucinda's Secret Summary

* summary contains spoiler, you may skip ahead and read my opinionated review

The following morning when the Grace siblings got up in bed, they experienced again weird happenings in their life. The siblings are suspecting It's another annoying surprise of Thimbletack. They realize it's because of the book.

Mallory wanted the book out of their life, but Jared resist to keep it. The siblings asked their mom Helen to visit their Aunt Lucinda in the Nursing home. Helen gladfully accepts her children's wishes. So they meet Aunt Lucinda and confirmed she knows the book, the existence of faeries and Thimbletack. It was also told that her dad, Arthur Spiderwick left them without any reason which the Grace siblings can very much relate because of their parent's divorce. Aunt Lucinda warned the siblings to get out of her house because of impending danger. She instructs to get the guide and move out of her house but as Jared was about to present the Field Guide taking it out from wrapped cloth, he found a cookbook instead. They were tricked. Probably by Thimbletack.

To cut short, they went back home, looked for the guide in Arthur's library. They also want to find out how and why Arthur Spiderwick disappear. They take a short walk outside with the map they found in the library. Following the map, they went to the edge of the hill. Thinking it could be a hint where Arthur Spiderwick have gone. There, they encountered The Phooka. The Phooka talks like giving out a wisdom-talk, not talking straightly but actually it's giving a hint on what the siblings may face upon entering the elf's domain. Later on, they encountered three elves. The three elves suspects that the Field Guide is being kept by the Grace siblings. They hostage Jared for a trade. The elves want to trade for the Field Guide in exchange the freedom of their sibling - Jared Grace. Jared pretended he's Simon and tricked the Elves to abide by its condition about freeing Simon which he pretends to be. Note that Jared & Simon are identical twins, the Elves overlooked it and because of technicalities, Jared was freed.

* end of spoiler / summary

This book is the climax of the Spiderwick Chronicles series, the siblings are very close to finding out the mystery disappearance of Arthur Spiderwick and gives a suspense about losing the Field Guide. Also, It'll enlighten you why the Field Guide is very important. Young ones will realize how harsh human beings about abusing our natural environment. Though the story is fiction, we can't deny that our fellow humans are doing it in real life. You'll itch to read the next book upon finishing what have happened in this series.

Isuzu trucks deliver the payload for Hannah Foods

With a payload advantage of up to 700kg in comparison to other 7.5 tonners in its refrigerated fleet, five new 7.5t Isuzu Forwards have recently gone into service for north-west food service company Hannah Foods and are already enabling the company to achieve greater efficiencies within its intensive national distribution operations.

Explaining why the company switched to Isuzu for these latest five new vehicles, Gary Hannah, director, Hannah Foods said; "Payload is absolutely critical to our daily operation and to get almost 700kg extra load per truck makes us far more efficient in our daily delivery schedules. At the same time, the significantly lower cab position on the Isuzus makes it a lot easier for our drivers to get in and out of the vehicles. Each truck handles in excess of 20 delivery drops a day so this is a significant advantage when it comes to loading and unloading."

Supplied by local Isuzu Truck dealer, Ditchburn Truck Services in Liverpool, all five Isuzu Forward N75.190 rigids were also specified with Isuzu's 'Easyshift' automated transmission. The trucks were supplied with multi-compartment Solomon refrigerated bodies with movable bulkheads that allows flexibility of load between the chilled and frozen compartments. The refrigeration of all five multi-temperature Isuzus is by Carrier Supra MT refrigeration systems.

"Prior to specifying the new Isuzu trucks we had operated three second-hand Isuzus for over a year. It was the performance and payload advantages of these vehicles that highlighted the benefits that could be achieved by adding more Isuzus to our fleet," added Gary Hannah.

Established in 1977, Hannah Foods is a family-owned busines operating a national food service covering a full range of frozen, chilled and ambient products. The company runs a 19-strong vehicle fleet, ranging from 3.5t vans through to artics and trailer combinations with all vehicles specified for multi-temperature distribution.

As part of the new vehicle specification, each of the 7.5t Isuzus has been fitted with the TranScan 2 data logging system from Seven Telematics. Gary Hannah explains; "We are operating the Isuzus on a range of school contracts where delivery temperature points have to be recorded for all deliveries, as part of the contract."

Hannah Foods anticipates operating the new Isuzu trucks for a four-year period, covering in excess of 80,000km per annum. When the Isuzus have completed their four-year working life, Hannah Foods expect to be able to transfer the high specification Solomon refrigerated bodies on to replacement new chassis giving them a double life.

"At 7.5 tonnes Isuzu trucks certainly lead the market in terms of payload potential. Payload is critical for companies such as Hannah Foods involved with highly intensive distribution operations. The increase in payload from their latest Isuzus is enabling them to perform far more efficiently on specific delivery programmes within the company's business," said Keith Child, marketing director, Isuzu Truck UK.

Manufacturers call on select committees to hold inquiries to improve Britain’s stretched road and energy networks

Britain's manufacturers have written to the newly appointed MPs on the Transport, Business Energy and Industrial Strategy and Digital Culture Media and Sport Select Committees urging them to hold inquiries into the state of Britain's roads and overstretched, expensive energy network.

EEF's Infrastructure Assessment 2017, which has been sent to members of each Select Committee, shows that despite government action infrastructure networks across the UK have seen a decline in quality over the last two years. On the energy side, manufacturers continue to face some of the highest electricity prices in Europe and are anxious about the cost implications of the huge volume of change due in the energy sector over the next decade.

In a new survey EEF, the manufacturers' organisation, reveals that manufacturers feel core infrastructure networks are getting worse and they need urgent attention. Of particular concern is the quality of A-road and energy supply networks.

Businesses want to see action on five policy priorities in the next 6 months to support growth and are urging Select Committees to hold inquiries to ensure:

  • The Government backs the Roads Fund with legislation to give certainty on future funding for the strategic road network
  • A full-fibre voucher scheme is created which maximises geographic coverage ensuring businesses have access to world class digital infrastructure
  • A roadmap to minimise business energy costs is delivered to make UK manufacturing more competitive
  • The creation of sub-national transport bodies for all of England to ensure a more strategic approach to maintaining locally managed A-roads
  • Progress on the Aviation National Policy Statement is expedited to deliver a third runway at Heathrow

Chris Richards, Head of Business Environment Policy, EEF, the manufacturers' organisation says: "The nation's network of roads are acting as a barrier to business growth. While some strategic new investment is taking place, we need to speed-up efforts to improve the key routes that are the arteries companies rely on."

"At the same time we need to see more progress on reducing the cost of energy for business. This combined with strengthening our digital infrastructure should all form part of a package to make Britain's vital business infrastructure fit for purpose if we're to maintain our competitive edge. The Government can't afford to take its eye off the ball and focus all its efforts on Brexit when there are core business priorities that need to be addressed now."

LGBTQ Culture in London: All you need to know

LGBTQ Culture in London: All you need to know

London is one of the foremost LGBTQ tourist destinations in Europe. Homosexuality was decriminalised in the United Kingdom in 1967, but London was an LGBTQ hub even before that. There is a lot to see and do in the city for both locals and tourists. Here’s a complete low down on the LGBTQ culture in London.

Wine and Dine for LGBTQ community

Soho, in Central London, is the centre of the city’s LGBTQ community. Here you’ll find the best gay and lesbian clubs, live entertainment shows, and sex shops. Bordered by Oxford Street, Regent Street, Charing Cross Road, and Leicester Square, the area covers about 2.6 square kilometers and can be explored on foot. G-A-Y Bar on Old Compton Street regularly hosts live music and DJ nights and stays open until the wee hours. Freedom is another popular bar and club in Central Soho, with over 200 mirrorballs and several dance poles for the live events held downstairs, and a chic bar upstairs. She Soho is unique in that it’s primarily a ladies bar, though men are welcome to accompany female patrons. Heaven, just off Trafalgar Square in Central London, is also one of the largest gay clubs in Europe.

London has a vibrant LGBTQ nightlife

The range of LGBTQ bars and clubs in London doesn’t just end in Soho. Dalston Superstore in East London is an artsy café by day and a pulsing club by night. Fire, in Vauxhall, South London, is an industrial-style club with a killer sound system, laser light shows and some of the best DJs in town. Nearby is also The Royal Vauxhall Tavern, the oldest surviving LGBTQ club in South London.

Films and Theatre for LGBTQ community

Enjoy Musicals at the Above The Stag Theatre, London

The London LGBT Film Festival, BFI Flare, is the biggest LGBT film festival in Europe. It began in 1986 as a season of LGBT films for two years at the National Film Theatre. In 1988, it was renamed the London Lesbian and Gay Film Festival, and later changed to BFI Flare: London LGBBT Film Festival. It takes place every spring in BFI Southbank, London. What makes London even more unique is the Above the Stag Theatre in Vauxhall, the only LGBT-centric theatre in the entire UK.

Pride in London

Pride in London is an annual LGBT pride parade and festival held every summer in London. A long-running tradition, it attracts thousands of LGBTQ visitors and their friends, family, and supporters to the city. Barclays Bank is the headline sponsor for the march, and it garners support from the Mayor of London as well.

For LGBTQ Bibliophiles

Gay’s The Word is the only bookstore in the UK to cater specifically to the LGBTQ community. Located in Bloomsbury, London, the store was founded in 1979 by people from a socialist group called Gay Icebreakers. Its genesis drew inspiration from the growth of lesbian and gay bookstores in the US. The independent bookstore has ample patronage across communities today.

Social Groups for and by the LGBTQ community

There is an array of support groups for and by the LGBTQ community in London. Centred is one such community organization that lends the LGBTQ culture in London a unique character. Their major activities include publishing, networking, community events, volunteering, community infrastructure, and LGBTQ history and heritage activities. Another such organization exclusively for lesbian, bisexual and transgender women professionals is the Gay Women’s Network. They work towards giving LGBT women access to career development and networking opportunities in an inclusive space, and supporting positive change for LGBT women at the workplace. Women from all sectors, levels, industries, and walks of life are welcomed into the network.

Village Drinks is a well-known social networking community for gay professionals in London, with events in Bristol, Brighton and Manchester as well. Their social events are immensely popular and well-attended, and what’s more, their membership is free.

There is a vibrant community of LGBTQ individuals and their supporters in the English Capital. Plan a trip to explore the LGBTQ culture in London on your own, and I promise you will go home a richer person.

Supreme Court Rules that Unintentional Spoliation of Evidence is Not a Cause of Action in Louisiana

legalnewsAn insurance company and an auto auction company will not face being sued for spoliation of evidence based upon their negligent failure to preserve a vehicle involved in an auto accident that injured the vehicle’s driver. The Louisiana Supreme Court recently ruled that the state’s law does not recognize a civil claim for negligent spoliation of evidence, although the companies’ failure may allow the injured driver to sue for breach of contract.

In March 2008, a multi-vehicle wreck left Richard Reynolds injured and his car totaled. Reynolds sued one of the other drivers, Robert Bordelon III, for negligence for his role in the accident. In addition to suing Bordelon, Reynolds also advanced claims against the manufacturer of his 2003 Infiniti G35, stemming from the car’s failure to deploy its airbags in the crash. Despite the driver’s alleged requests to the contrary, the auction company that took possession of the Infiniti on behalf of Reynolds’s insurer did not preserve the car, which meant that it was never inspected for defects.

This failure led Reynolds to add his insurance company and the auction company to his lawsuit. Those entities, according to Reynolds, committed spoliation of evidence, meaning that they destroyed, or allowed to be destroyed, material that was evidence in the case. The companies asked the trial court to throw out the case against them, arguing that Louisiana law requires the accuser to prove that they committed an intentional act of spoliation, and Reynolds had no proof that either company carried out any intentional act leading to the destruction of the vehicular evidence. The trial court agreed with the companies.

The Louisiana Supreme Court ruled on the case in June, addressing whether or not a person or entity can commit negligent spoliation of evidence. The court decided there is no such claim in Louisiana. The recognition by the law of any basis for a civil suit is grounded, at least in part, on the idea that making it actionable will deter future conduct. Forcing Bordelon, if he was found liable, to pay for Reynolds’ injuries might deter future drivers from driving negligently. Allowing parties to sue third parties for negligent spoliation of evidence would not deter future acts of unintentional destruction of evidence but would only “penalize a party who was not aware of its potential wrongdoing in the first place.”

The court did point out, however, that other options exist for a party whose case is undermined by someone else’s failure to preserve evidence. While ruling that Reynolds could not sue for negligent spoliation of evidence, the court concluded that the accusations he made did amount to a potentially valid breach of contract claim.

The ruling in Reynolds’ case serves as a clear illustration of the many tasks that can go into succeeding in an auto accident case. If you’ve been injured in a vehicle crash caused by the negligence of another person, your vehicle may be one of the most important pieces of evidence you have to help you prove your case. Preserving that evidence could be the difference between recovering for your injuries or defeat. For wise advice and aggressive representation regarding this and other aspects of your personal injury case, talk to the Louisiana car accident attorneys at the Cardone Law Firm. Our attorneys can help you pursue your case and obtain the recovery you deserve for your injuries.

    Mountain Heart Pulls a String
    Print this page

           I entered the Ogle Center unsure of what to expect from this highly applauded and abstractly described band. Mountain Heart made me tap my feet, clap my hands, and want to jump up and dance. Slamgrass is the best definition of this Nashville band's sound. A sound that is similar to favorites like Trampled by Turtles and Old Crow Medicine Show with a dash of something from the past. The result is nothing less than astonishment and I am now a new fan.

    An opening of a remake of "Hey Joe" by Hendrix captured my imagination with possibilities.  Unexpected in a so called bluegrass environment, I was impressed.  Hard to believe as it is this was topped by a piano and acoustic version of "Changes".  Along with these new acoustic treasures were old faithfuls of bluegrass such as "Little Sadie" and some Tony Rice hits. The show was topped with a cherry by a quartet number at the end; something I had never seen. The final number that was played was my favorite by the band, the Allman Brother's "Whipping Post".  Rocking out on stage, I felt as if I were watching some extremely talented friends jam out.  The audience interaction with the band members and camaraderie of the band made the setting intimate and fun; a mark of excellent showmen.

    The six men that make up Mountain Heart are widely talented and incredibly in touch with their fans. The youngest member, Jake Stargel, is 19 and plays the guitar with a talent beyond his years. Original member Barry Abernathy plays the banjo with only one finger on his left hand and banters with the rest of the band keeping the audience and band light as the show moves on.  Josh Shilling is the lead vocals and is no doubt talented.  Singing a song off of his solo album “Hurtin’”, I believe was the name; the two men beside me were moved to tears.  I am a fan of the mandolin and was blown away by the talents of Aaron Ramsey who seems to be a musical genius with a rough southern voice who recorded his solo album alone in his basement.  Rounding out the band were the fiddler,  Jim VanCleve, who was the second part of the original band and bass player, Jason Moore, who kept the beat with his upright bass all night.

    Following the concert a meet and greet was held where the band shook hands signed autographs and just hung out.  I was lucky enough to speak to the band and they expressed their desire to play for Louisville audiences and share their love of all acoustic instruments, which between the six of them, they have mastered.  I was truly impressed by this Slamgrass Band and hope to see them again soon, this time across the river in the 'Ville.

Partner Recruitment

We skillfully help you manage senior-level change in a dynamic legal marketplace

Lucas Group consistently works with leading firms across the nation to place talented, demonstrated senior partners, helping to broaden offerings and enhance capabilities, plan and create entire practice groups, and open new locations in the U.S. and abroad. Not long ago, senior partners remained at their firms with unfailing consistency. There was little movement among firms at that level and few actively recruited new senior partners. The legal world has changed. Today, partner movement is an established trend in a highly competitive market, and no one is better at partner recruitment than Lucas Group’s skilled team of legal search consultants.

If you seek to hire a top-performing partner, open an office, or make the move to merge/acquire an established practice group, Lucas Group legal recruiters can deliver. We have helped open successful offices for Am Law 100 firms in Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, Atlanta, and D.C., and we have efficiently moved senior partners and entire practice groups with as many as 20 attorneys and support staff.

Partner and practice group search requires intense research, deep industry knowledge and unconditional prudence. It also requires understanding and managing the highly emotional nature of a partner search and placement. Lives, careers and reputations hang in the balance, and we act accordingly, affording our clients—and their prospective partners—complete professionalism and absolute discretion.

We find and place proven, experienced attorney partners in a variety of practice areas, including but not limited to:

  • Complex Litigation
  • Corporate Mergers and Acquisitions
