Top LL.Ms in Administrative Law 2019/2020
Administrative law is a highly specialized area of law that deals with legal codes, government regulations, agency rules and precedents. Students obtaining an LLM degree may expect to earn more than a criminal or civil attorney due to the amount of complex information with which the lawyer is expected to be familiar.

One of the most striking features of the Law of Social Democratic State is the supremacy of the Constitution. As a result, the theory of creation teaches that the so-called constitutional block is formed by the rules of fundamental rights and guarantees and state organization and powers, which are called as materially constitutional requirements.

The ignition characteristics of a temporally-evolving n-heptane jet in an iso-octane/air stream under reactivity controlled compression ignition (RCCI) combustion-relevant conditions are investigated using 2-D direct numerical simulations (DNSs) with a 116-species primary reference fuel (PRF)/air reduced mechanism. For the DNSs of RCCI combustion, iso-octane and n-heptane are chosen as two different fuels delivered by the port-fuel and direct-fuel injections, respectively. Therefore, the ignition characteristics of both fuels can be investigated by simulating the ignition of a temporally-evolving n-heptane jet with relative jet velocity, U0, within iso-octane/air charge. It is found that the first-stage ignition kernels governed by the low-temperature chemistry first develop primarily within the n-heptane jet near the mixing layer regardless of U0, and evolve into low-temperature flames, propagating into relatively fuel-rich mixtures in the n-heptane jet. High-temperature flames also develop first in the n-heptane jet, following the trajectories of low-temperature flames, and then, propagate towards both relatively fuel-lean mixtures of the iso-octane/air charge and fuel-rich mixtures of the n-heptane jet. They keep propagating into fuel-lean mixtures and finally end-gas auto-ignition occurs. It is also found that the first-stage ignition occurs more quickly with increasing U0 due to enhanced mixing between relatively cold n-heptane jet and hot iso-octane/air charge, and consequently, the second-stage ignition also advances in time with increasing U0, which are opposite to the results found in previous DNSs of RCCI combustion. Such ignition characteristics are more likely to prolong the overall combustion duration and reduce the peak of heat release rate with increasing U0. In addition, chemical explosive mode analysis (CEMA) identifies important variables and reactions for the low-, intermediate-, and high-temperature chemistries under such RCCI conditions.

About Shade: The Dying World
Shade: The Dying World is the story of a band of voyagers who cross a barren world in seek of paradise. It is a story of survival, adversity, discovery, and war.
Honor, sacrifice, power, and betrayal.
Set on the planet Dañub, whose strange orientation and its orbit of a red-giant star scorches its North and leaves its South in relative calm, we meet our cast of characters. Mathos is the old scholar whose life's work is to discover the paradise to the south and rebuild society under its shelter. Mocked for his beliefs, he nonetheless toils on despite the odds, with the help of his apprentice, Djantu. Young and idealistic, and possessing an insight that borders on clairvoyance, Djantu dutifully follows his master towards their goal of reaching the legendary land of shade and water. Together, they propel their quest forward and enlist the protection of a warrior renowned for his courage, Jocabo. Haunted by a loss from his past, Jocabo seeks redemption by shielding his charges from harm, even though he fears their mission is doomed.
In Part One, embarking on wooden airships, they begin their journey of thousands of miles across the desolate land between the hemispheres. After months of enduring hardships, they reach their distant objective believing their struggles are finally over. Only then do they discover much more than they bargained for.
Enter the people of the south, citizens of the great city of Ethenon. Blessed by good weather and resources, they have built an empire of wealth that amazes the voyagers. Led by Emperor Nerod and his general Darus, they are fascinated by the new arrivals and invite diplomacy between their two worlds. With the Dañubi's knowledge of ship-building and the Ethenean's unlimited resources and manpower, they combine their skills to inaugurate a new era in their planet's history. But as their societies collide, all learn that this clash of cultures will be much more than they can handle. The story of their conflict is laid out in Part Two.
Inspired by some of my favorite literary and cinematic adventures, and infused with parallels from history, this project has been a labor of love throughout my career. Now, with all 340 pages of illustrations and layout complete, only the coloring of the remaining pages stands between completion of the book.

October 2013 In the Studio Seeing Sounds, Part 4: Classic Jazz by Donny Gruendler Small-group jazz drumming is synonymous with legendary players such as Art Blakey, Max Roach, Philly Joe Jones, Elvin Jones, and Tony Williams. Although these five gentlemen had very different approaches to timekeeping, each contributed to the jazz art form and created innovative drum sounds. These include high and articulate tunings, snappy snares, and tom-like bass drums, often recorded using minimal miking techniques. In recent years the classic tones have been explored by today's greats, like Brian Blade, Bill Stewart, Kendrick Scott, Karriem Riggins, and Billy Martin. Jazz drum sounds are quite different from what we explored in the previous installments of this series, including all-purpose pop/rock,...

What could be more fun and challenging than recording a big band in five hours? In this video by Bret 'Jazz Video Guy' Primack we bear witness to the recording process thanks to a true musical genius, Bob Mintzer, who in addition to leading his own big band and twenty year run with the Yellowjackets, is Professor of Jazz Studies at USC, where he leads the USC Thornton Jazz Orchestra. In April, after winning the Monterey Jazz Festival's Next Gen competition for best college big band, this group of remarkably talented young musicians, went into the studio to record with veteran engineer Bruce Botnick. Thanks to Bret's documentation, we are witness to the session, 10 tunes recorded in just over five hours!

Compared to so much American animation, which seems hell-bent on putting a global audience of addled kids in a paradoxical manic stupor, the work of Japan’s Studio Ghibli sets its own pace, establishes its own, meticulously observed realms of the fantastic and respects a moviegoer’s senses — any moviegoer’s, of any age.
The Secret World of Arrietty is the latest import from the collective responsible for Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away, Howl’s Moving Castle (a clear inspiration for Disney-Pixar’s Up) and, more recently, Ponyo. A big success in Japan and elsewhere, Arrietty opens this week in a slightly Americanized edition overseen and released by Disney. It’s lovely, both in spirit and in its simple, supple, hand-drawn visual allure.
The story comes from Mary Norton’s book The Borrowers (in Japan, the film was titled The Borrower Arrietty), so if you or your child happened to read one or more of the Borrowers books, there’s another access point for you. Arrietty, 14 and ready to bloom, lives under the floorboards of a house with her equally miniature father and mother. While dodging the odd house cat, they “borrow” what they need to survive from their unwitting, fullsize human hosts: a sugar cube here, a knickknack there.
When a visiting full-scale human teenager discovers Arrietty, the wee family’s safety is threatened, and the fullsize cranky housekeeper’s suspicions become well and truly roused. But this tale of friendship, and of responsible, imaginative recycling of the earth’s material goods, is a warm, comforting breeze of a picture.
The perils remain ever-present in Arrietty’s world, and her family’s plight echoes once and future refugees the world over. But the narrative breathes; it doesn’t conspire every minute to work on an audi ence’s nerves or its sense of narrative dread.
Three years ago, Disney’s American release of Ponyo didn’t find the audience it deserved. The Secret World of Arrietty is even more deserving of an audience, though its voice casting neither helps nor hinders those chances. Disney TV star Bridgit Mendler brings an effective if limited friendliness to Arrietty; Will Arnett and Amy Poehler are relatively restrained as her parents; Carol Burnett runs through a career’s worth of vocal flourishes and aural panic attacks as the housekeeper. Disney can be thanked for leaving firsttime director Hiromasa Yonebayashi’s feature more or less alone. (The script is by the great Hayao Miyazaki, co-founder of Studio Ghibli and an inspiration to countless animators and directors.) Will its easygoing charm be enough for the average American preteen consumer, already flattened by one too many Ice Ages? There’s only one way to find out.

Former FHM Singapore and Malaysia cover girl DJ Tenashar is in court for two counts of drug consumption – one for cocaine and the other for psilocin, which is found in most psychedelic mushrooms.
The 32-year-old, whose birth name is Debbie Valerie Tenashar Long, is also being charged for importing the controlled drug psilocin and possessing nimetazepam (Erimin-5).
She is currently remanded at Changi Women’s Prison and appeared in court via video-link on Friday (June 22), according to a report in The Straits Times. She was first charged on May 26.
Court documents showed that the offences were committed on Oct 28 2015, when two containers – each containing a packet of off-white and brown substance – were found on her at Changi Airport Terminal 1, Arrival Belt 19, at 10.20pm.
She is also accused of consuming psilocin and another substance known as benzoylecgonine, a major metabolite of cocaine, on the same day.
At around 3am the next day, she is said to be in possession of an Erimin-5 tablet at a sixth-storey unit at The Quayside condominium in Robertson Quay.
If convicted, Long faces up to 10 years in jail and fine of up to $20,000 on each charge of drug consumption. For importing psilocin, she could face a sentence of 20 years in jail.
Long has been offered bail of $30,000 and will return to court on July 18.
Prosecution was not ready as the Agri-Food and Veterinary Authority is also currently looking into a possible animal cruelty-related charge against Long.

Opinion: Midfield has uncertain Celtic future, Stoke and Swansea should pounce in January – originally posted on Sportslens.com
Jonny Hayes has an uncertain future at Celtic with only six months remaining on his contract. Celtic are keen to keep the 32-year-old, but he’ll be free to speak with overseas clubs when the winter transfer window opens.
Stoke City and Swansea City have been linked with his signature and should pounce in January before Celtic make progress with contract talks. Stoke need cover for Stephen Ward at left-back while Swansea need cover for Jake Bidwell as Declan John hasn’t featured this season.
Hayes has made 59 appearances in all competitions since joining the Hoops from Aberdeen in 2017, scoring and creating 10 goals. The Republic of Ireland international has featured 17 times this season, but 76% of his appearances have come from the bench – at left-back and left-midfield during Celtic’s injury crisis.
In defence, Boli Bolingoli has an injury while Greg Taylor and Calvin Miller have mostly been out of the matchday squad. On the wing, Lewis Morgan, Scott Sinclair and Mikey Johnston have been on the periphery while Daniel Arzani and Mohamed Elyounoussi have struggled with injuries. Hayes has benefitted from their absences.
The 32-year-old started in Celtic’s 2-1 win over Lazio (November 7) and in two of their last three Premiership games – 2-0 win over Motherwell (November 10), 4-0 win over Livingston (November 23) – so he still has a part to play under Neil Lennon. Nevertheless, Hayes’ future will be up in the air until he agrees a new deal with the Hoops, so Stoke and Swansea should capitalise on the uncertainty.

Thanks to all the regulations restaurants have to follow diners often have a sense of security that what they are eating is free of contaminants that can make us violently ill or cause death. Unfortunately, that isn’t actually always the case as one unfortunate woman learned the hard way that speed of preparation outweighed safety practices to ensure a good product and now a warning is out that Americans need to be made aware of immediately.
One diner at a popular restaurant chain learned the hard way that everyone should always be vigilant and looking out for what could be in their meal, and now suspects they’re sick from salmonella poisoning.
From Fox 8:
Shawna Cepeda was dining with her family and was about four bites into a salad when she noticed the food tasted a little bitter and started to stir it around, according to her June 13 review on Yelp.
“I see something kind of rolled up. I was like, ‘this doesn’t look right,’ so I passed it to my husband,” Cepeda told the San Gabriel Valley Tribune. “I asked, ‘Is that a piece of lettuce?’ Then he looked and my daughter looked at it and he was like, ‘it’s a frickin’ frog.’”
The restaurant comped the meal and BJ’s Corporate office offered a $50 gift card, a modest token given what could have happened from consuming the frog.
“I told him this frog could contain salmonella and who knows how long it’s been sitting in a produce bag,” Cepeda wrote in her post.
Cepeda reported feeling sick after the incident, which she claims persisted for at least a week.
Salmonella poisoning is no joke, and frogs are a common carrier of the bacteria.
WebMD defines Salmonella as:
Salmonellosis is a type of food poisoning caused by the Salmonella enterica bacterium. There are many different kinds of these bacteria. Salmonella serotype Typhimurium and Salmonella serotype Enteritidis are the most common types in the United States.
Salmonellosis is more common in the summer than in the winter. Children are the most likely to get salmonellosis. Young children, older adults, and people who have impaired immune systems are the most likely to have severe infections.
The infections can even be fatal. According to the CDC there are a staggering number of infections every year.
Every year, Salmonella is estimated to cause one million foodborne illnesses in the United States, with 19,000 hospitalizations and 380 deaths.
While fatalities are a small fraction it just shows that every infection should be taken with the utmost seriousness.
Here are some symptoms you may experience with Salmonella (from WebMD):
Symptoms of salmonellosis include diarrhea, fever, and abdominal cramps. They develop 12 to 72 hours after infection, and the illness usually lasts 4 to 7 days. Most people recover without treatment. But diarrhea and dehydration may be so severe that it is necessary to go to the hospital. Older adults, infants, and those who have impaired immune systems are at highest risk.
If you only have diarrhea, you usually recover completely, although it may be several months before your bowel habits are entirely normal. A small number of people who are infected with salmonellosis develop reactive arthritis, a disease that can last for months or years and can lead to chronic arthritis.
Salmonella is usually diagnosed by a doctor who will conduct a physical examination along with a review of your medical history, symptoms, and foods recently eaten. They’ll even review the conditions of your home and work spaces. On occasion stool cultures and blood tests will be done for the sake of confirmation.
Salmonella infections are commonly treated the following ways:
You treat salmonellosis by managing any complications until it passes. Dehydration caused by diarrhea is the most common complication. Antibiotics are not usually needed unless the infection has spread.
To prevent dehydration, take frequent sips of a rehydration drink (such as Pedialyte). Try to drink a cup of water or rehydration drink for each large, loose stool you have.
What you consume is very important. The wrong things can prolong the illness or worsen the condition.
Soda and fruit juices have too much sugar and not enough of the important electrolytes that are lost during diarrhea, and they should not be used to rehydrate.
The foods you choose to eat while infected also play a vital role in your recovery.
Try to stay with your usual diet as much as possible. Eating your usual diet will help you to get enough nutrition. Doctors believe that eating a normal diet will also help you feel better faster. But try to avoid foods that are high in fat and sugar. Also avoid spicy foods, alcohol, and coffee for 2 days after all symptoms have disappeared.
Finally, while the contaminant in Cepeda’s food was hidden and she was caught off guard, there are a number of effective ways to prevent Salmonella poisoning in the first place.
- Don’t eat raw foods
- Cook food thoroughly
- Avoid raw and unpasteurized dairy products
- Wash and/or peel produce before consumption
- Avoid cross contamination of food, keep raw food away from produce that might not be cooked
- Wash your hands before and between the handling of food, as well as afterward.
- Do not prepare food or drinks for others if you are infected with Salmonella
- Wash hands after contact with animals that are carriers of the bacteria, or after contact with animal feces.

I can play flute, piano/keyboard, guitar (acoustic and electric), drums, violin, and viola. I just learned one, then wanted to learn another so I just kept adding instruments and now I am working on learning trumpet! I can sing too, like I have a very big range and singing is probably what I enjoy the most. I love that feeling you get when you hit a note and it just sounds so smooth.

(Pocket-lint) - Sony has confirmed it'll attend Mobile World Congress 2018.
It has sent official invites to its press conference. The date and time for your diary is Monday 26 February, with the actual keynote commencing at 8:30am CET (7:30am GMT/2:30am EST). Sony, of course, hasn't said what will be unveiled in Barcelona, but rumours think we'll see two phones: the Sony Xperia XZ Pro and Xperia XZ2.
Keep in mind the company used MWC 2017 to announce the Sony Xperia XA1 and Xperia XZ Premium. As for this year, the Xperia XZ Pro is expected to feature a 4K screen with an 18:9 aspect ratio. It'll presumably be powered by a Snapdragon 845, and it might even be the first Sony phone to come with a dual camera on the rear.
The Sony Xperia XZ2 is pegged to be a successor to the Xperia XZ1. It might also have a dual camera. Other rumoured features include a 5.48-inch 1920 x 1080 full HD display with HDR, the latest Snapdragon 845 processor, 4GB of RAM, and 64GB of expandable storage. A recently leaked render also showed virtually non-existent bezels.
Speculation on Sony's new flagship smartphones have been around for a while - since the end of 2017 - but it's ramping up now Barcelona's Mobile World Congress is on the horizon. The enormous mobile phonetrade show officially starts on 26 February. Pocket-lint will be there to bring you all the news and previews as it happens.

INTEGRATED financial services group, Old Mutual has embarked on an education campaign aimed at helping Zimbabweans grasp sound financial management principles. The programme, dubbed “On the Money: The Big Five Secrets of Money Management”, will see various sections of society undergo a day long interactive courses conducted by Old Mutual trainers.
The programme is focused on instilling financial discipline drawing from the behaviour and characteristics of the big five, lion, elephant, leopard, rhino and buffalo.
According to Old Mutual Group chief executive Mr Jonas Mushosho, sound financial management principles were central to the restoration of Zimbabwe’s economy.
“In studying the behaviour of the Big five animals found in Zimbabwe, Old Mutual has developed a programme to help Zimbabweans, of any income-earning ability, to manage their money better.
“The unique characteristics of the big five as found in nature, have been distilled to teach us truisms about how to manage our personal and family finances,” said Mr Mushosho.
“On the Money”, which will be taught to adults and parents, would also equip the next generation of investors with sound financial management skills at an early age. We live in a country that is alive with possibilities for our citizens to realise their dreams.
“As we learn new ways of managing our money, we strengthen the fabric of our families and communities. Ultimately, we are able to pursue our dreams and secure a future filled with financial success,” he said.

Indian airline stocks drop on fare regulation; PAL union votes for strike
The Government has been mounting pressure on airlines to reduce fares and publicly make available fares on a sector-by-sector basis after fares skyrocketed after Diwali, especially for last-minute or spot tickets.
Centrum Broking said India’s aviation stocks have been affected by recent negative reports for the aviation sector, stating: “It is hard to comment on a single stock but basically the drop is because of the glut of news that has come out recently, which is not really healthy for the sector."
PAL Holdings Inc, owner of Philippine Airlines Inc, declined 4.8% to PHP4 yesterday, for the lowest close since 09-Nov-2010. The decline came as the carrier’s crew labour union stated its members are voting “overwhelmingly” on a possible strike action to protest what it claims are illegal one-on-one talks with personnel whose jobs the carrier plans to outsource. The notice filed by the union with the National Conciliation and Mediation Board “is without basis”, Philippine Airlines said in a statement yesterday.
AirAsia to form Philippines unit by 1Q2011
Meanwhile, Philippine Board of Investments stated AirAsia plans to form a Philippine unit by 1Q2011. The Philippine venture will be formed with Antonio Cojuangco, a former Chairman of Philippine Long Distance Telephone Co and President Benigno Aquino's cousin, and will commence domestic and international services in 2011. The Malaysian stock exchange was closed yesterday.

On July 22, 2011 a bombing of government buildings in Oslo resulted in eight deaths. On the same day a mass shooting at a camp of the Workers’ Youth League (AUF) of the Labour Party on the island of Utøya killed 69 people, mostly teenagers. The person held responsible is Anders Behring Breivik, a Norwegian right-wing extremist.
One photo of Breivik travelled the world: arrested and sitting in a police car, wearing a red polo shirt by Lacoste. In another (in)famous photo he is wearing a black Lacoste sweater.
The French brand was not amused and contacted the Norwegian Justice Department, demanding that Breivik was forbidden to wear Lacoste clothing at the upcoming trial.
It remains the question weather or not this is a smart move by Lacoste. Without looking at the legal merits of the case, the fact that Lacoste is making such a big deal out of this, is attracting even more attention to the matter. We are also writing about it, right?
In Holland there was a similar case. Right-wing extremist teenagers were using their LONSDALE branded clothing as a symbol: the middle letters NSDA form the abbreviation of the National Socialist German Workers’ Party. Adolf Hitler later became the leader of this party.
A valuable IP lesson can be learned here: “You can protect a trademark, but you cannot protect a brand.”
Sometimes is better to lay low and hope for things to pass.

Some bath products fizz and make bubbles when added to water. Ever wonder why? Try this experiment to find out. (Adult supervision recommended.)
A bath bomb is really showing how acids and bases react when mixed together. In this experiment, the baking soda is the base and the citric acid is, well, the acid. But the reaction of this acid-base combination can be controlled by the other ingredients in the bath bomb.
The cornstarch and Epsom salts both act as liquid absorbers to help keep the baking soda and citric acid from reacting with each other when liquids are added. They are also helpful if you live in a place with high humidity. The borax acts as both a preservative and an emulsifier, stabilizing the acid and the base and keeping them from reacting with each other before entering the water.
Water is the catalyst for the reaction to occur because it dissolves the solids and allows the ions in the acid and the base to move and collide with each other, causing a chemical reaction to occur. A catalyst is something added to a chemical mixture that speeds up the chemical reaction time. This reaction forms carbon dioxide, a gas, which rises to the surface of the bathwater in the form of bubbles. The oils and the fragrances are useful as a liquid to help form the bath bombs as well as leave the skin smooth and scented.

Temperature control is an important aspect in every home, especially during the hot season. It is essential to understand that ductless air conditioning is the way to go. If you are looking for a device that would cool your home in a simple, quiet, and compact manner you should consider installing a ductless air conditioner. You might end up making a wrong choice if you do not consider its capacity. Energy efficiency is something you should not forget to check when buying an air conditioner. The points below explain the importance of ductless air conditioning.
It is necessary to note that a ductless air conditioner comes with much of personalized comfort. It would allow you to install the units in various parts of the house and this would be a good thing. This means that everyone would be able to set the desired temperature in his or her own room; this is a great way to ensure that all the family members are happy and comfortable.
You have to note that a ductless air conditioner does not use much energy and this would be a good thing. It enables you to switch off the units that you are not using instead of cooling the entire house and increasing the electricity bill. Moreover, you have to note that a ductless air conditioner does not switch on and off during the day and this means that it more energy efficient.
You should note that a ductless air conditioner does not need much of space. The bulkiness and complexity of an HVAC would make you think twice when looking for an air conditioner. You would have much to do when you buy an HVAC since it requires extensive ductwork; it also takes much space. Instead of using an option that would take up much space, you should make sure that you use a ductless air conditioner since it does not need much of that space.
You would not have to do much as far as maintaining a ductless air conditioner is concerned. All you have to do is to keep the vent walls clean, clean the filters, and ensure that the outdoor unit is tidy in order to maintain the airflow. It is important to note that your ductless air conditioner can serve you for up to twenty years if you maintain it very well.
If you have a family member who suffers from allergies, you should make sure that you buy a ductless air conditioner. It does not allow the accumulation of debris and dust. Thus, you have to use a ductless air conditioner and enjoy all the benefits.

Punjab expects 10-15 lakh tonnes lesser paddy purchase compared to last season
Punjab is expecting about 10 to 15 lakh tonnes lesser paddy procurement during ongoing kharif marketing season 2018-19 as compared to last year in view of lower yield caused by untimely rains.
"Paddy procurement is expected to be lesser this season as compared to last year. It may go down by more than 10 lakh tonnes," Punjab Food and Civil Supplies Minister Bharat Bhushan Ashu said Saturday.
Against the procurement of 178 lakh tonnes last year, Punjab is now expecting paddy purchase in the range of 165 to 170 lakh tonnes. Before the start of current procurement season, Punjab was targeting purchase of 200 lakh tonnes of crop.
"We feel the paddy purchase will be 10-15 lakh tonnes lesser this year in comparison to what was purchased last season," said Punjab Agriculture Director J S Bains.
Punjab has also lowered the paddy output estimates to 185 to 190 lakh tonnes as against paddy production of 200 lakh tonnes for 2018-19 season.
During the ongoing crop procurement, a total of 107 lakh tonnes of paddy has been procured in grain markets so far, which is about 30 to 35 lakh tonnes lower than what was purchased in corresponding period of last year, officials said.
Untimely rain in the month of September was the main reason which adversely affected the paddy yield.
Paddy crop at several places suffered damage when rains hit the state in the month of September, said Bains adding, Reports from the fields suggest loss of about two quintals per acre in paddy yield. Meanwhile, unseasonal rains have not only dashed the hopes of bumper output it has also led to higher moisture content in the crop.
Against the norm of 17 per cent, the moisture content in paddy arrivals has been in the range of 21-22 per cent and at certain places even more than that, a senior official said.
As per norms, procurement agencies purchase paddy which has moisture content up to 17 per cent.
We have demanded relaxation in moisture content from the Centre so farmers should not face any problem in selling their crop, the official further said.

Photos of orange marmalade kittens at the shelters just tug at me. I am so very tempted by the prospect of another little furball that reminds me so much of Fionn. I can't stop my heart from taking a leap every time I see that combination of orange fur, white bib, pink nose and toebeans. At the same time I know very well that just because a kitten looks like Fionn they won't be Fionn. It is unlikely that any cat will have anything like his personality. I need to find a kitty to love, one that loves me back.

The number of casualties recorded from the outbreak of yellow fever in some parts of the country has risen to 39.
Apart from the Savannah and Upper West Regions where cases were initially reported, the Ghana Health Service (GHS) says others have been recorded in the Northern, Oti and Bono regions.
The Director-General, Dr. Patrick Kuma-Aboagye who made the disclosure, said the Service was intensifying vaccination campaigns on the disease in reporting regions to control spread and save lives.
He was speaking at the opening of three-day senior managers meeting for top-level management members within the health sector in Accra yesterday.
The meeting which is the second of its kind discusses pertinent issues affecting the sector for policy planning and budgeting for service delivery sustainability.
It was on the theme; “Improving service delivery in a pandemic; the role of participatory planning and budgeting.”
Dr.Kuma-Aboagye said as much as the GHS deployed COVID-19 vaccines, other life-saving vaccines to protect the populace against other infectious diseases would be pursued.
“To control these diseases, there is renewed high-level commitment to obtaining sufficient vaccines to make vaccines a national public good.
We will continue to implore the use of enhanced protocols to reduce rate of infections, admissions and deaths. I, therefore, call on us all to be part of the processes by getting vaccinated to reduce the effects of the diseases in the country and beyond,” he added.
The Director-General reported that the Service took cognisance of a possible surge in COVID-19 cases as the Christmas festivities beckoned and was putting in place measures to reduce infection rate to the barest minimum.
He mentioned for instance, an overhaul of the medical oxygen supply chain system to ensure equitable distribution of oxygen for COVID-19 case management across the country to meet demand levels.
Dr Kuma-Aboagye urged health staff to keep up their relentless efforts and contributions towards improving health care services and ensure that Ghana’s efforts towards quality universal health coverage (UHC) was not compromised.
The Director of Policy, Planning, Monitoring and Evaluation at the Ministry of Health (MOH), Dr. Emmanuel Odame, called for concerted efforts among sector players to achieve UHC by 2030.
He defined Ghana’s UHC as; all people living in Ghana having timely access to high-quality health services irrespective of ability to pay at the point of use, adding that “that is the direction we all should be working towards in the coming years.”
The Chief Director of the Ministry of Finance, Mr. Patrick Nomo implored management members to strive towards building an efficient health service delivery system.
“Much as government and donor partners invest into the sector, we need to harmonise resources and develop sustainable strategies for improved service delivery,” he urged.
Yellow fever is an acute viral internal bleeding disease transmitted by infected mosquitoes.
A person with Yellow Fever may have fever and jaundice in the early stages and later bleed from any of the body openings like the nose and mouth.
The disease may be contracted through the bite of the Aedes mosquito and prevention is mainly by taking the Yellow Fever vaccine or preventing the bite of a mosquito.

Chicken production has a major role in the economy of developing countries and backyard production is particularly important to improve chicken production as a means to reduce poverty. Although Ethiopia has a huge resource of poultry, the country is not getting the required benefits from this sector due to poor productivity of local hens and cocks, undeveloped production system and high disease prevalence among many other reasons.
In Ethiopia traditional practices continue to dominate domestic poultry production, however, there has been a shift to commercial production with an increase in small and medium-scale producers that have been established to exploit the urban demand in the past 20-25 years.
Chickens are the most popular poultry species used for meat and egg production in Ethiopia. Chicken and chicken products provide a valuable source of protein and income for the families.
The trends in the consumption of poultry products are key indicator of opportunities for investment. The total chicken population in the country is estimated to be 59.5 million with indigenous breed representing 90.85%, hybrid chicken 4.76% and exotic breeds 4.39% (CSA, 2016/2017).

Data in business is a commodity and it can be used to highlight areas for optimisation, while also allowing for defining a feasible solution. Over years of engagement with customers from various industries, Opti-Num Solutions has been able to develop a framework for advanced and effective data-driven decision making. Our tried-and-tested approach with the data is broken down into three parts:
The first stage of data driven decision making is to define the problem to be solved. While this may seem trivial, a well-defined problem statement ensures that the investigation for a solution does not venture too far from answering the question. The primary idea is to make the process concise. It also ensures that a good starting point is established for the investigation whereby some initial analytics can be applied to serve as a guideline.
Opti-Num was approached to find a way to increase customer retention through a rewards program for one of our Property Technology (PropTech) clients. With this, Opti-Num was able to define the problem along two components: customer tenure to analyse retention and customer spend to analyse the scale of the rewards.
The second step is to find the cause of the problem, analysing the data and observing the problem to find the underlying cause of problem to be resolved. Looking at the problem’s sources, breaking them down, and examining the individual sources to find the key data sources in a way that then allows the solution to be developed. The process involves delving into the data to find the part of the trend or data group that is causing the problem.
Using the results of the performed analyses, we were able to breakdown customers into distinct categories based on groupings within tenure, spend, and the products they subscribed to. While the data was too distinct, by observing average tenure and spend within each product segment, we could observe the data in more manageable and related groups.
The final stage is to find the solution. After looking through the rest of the data, if there is data that does not suffer from the problem being resolved, we can use it as a base case to mimic. We can look into seeing how we can get the problematic subset to tend towards mimicking the base case. Alternatively, if this is not possible, as the problem permeates all the data, we can use behaviour enforcement to reward the desired behaviour for the user causing a general trend towards resolving the problem.
With this we could identify the average behaviour within each category to define how the rewards should scale with increases in tenure and spend within each product group. The rewards began small and, after a certain amount of time as a customer, began increasing incrementally over time until tenure is just beyond the average for the segment where it then becomes consistent. Changes in their spend would affect the rate at which their reward increases as well.
Our Advanced Busines Analytics team at Opti-Num has successfully been able to define problems using data within various business’, find the root cause of the problems and assist in the development of an innovative solution that can be applied to drive improve behaviour in business. Contact us today to see how we can help take your data and design a solution that is tailored to your business.

• Expert: Tony Vandemore, co-owner and manager of Habitat Flats; manages 2,800 acres of scattered properties
• Location: Missouri’s Golden Triangle
When most hunters hear “duck field,” they think flooded corn, but Vandemore relies heavily on moist-soil vegetation like smartweed and wild millet—stuff that’s naturally in the seedbed. “It has a lot of advantages,” he says. “It’s cheaper to grow, it holds its nutritional value longer than grain once it’s flooded, and early in the season, it’s full of invertebrates, which are a huge part of a duck’s diet.”
It’s also easy to establish. “You can take a farmer’s field that’s been sprayed and cultivated for 50 years, leave it alone for one year, and it’ll grow up fast in natural vegetation,” he says. “The good stuff is probably already in the ground, waiting to grow.”
Photograph by Donald M. Jones
Growing moist-soil vegetation is a simple matter of manipulating the water on a flooded field at the right time and then leaving it alone. To regulate floodwater, Vandemore uses pumps and six-board water-control structures, in which boards set into a levee can be removed to change the level. Starting around June 1 through mid July, he begins lowering the water on flooded fields by removing one board at a time. Vegetation grows quickly in the exposed areas and eventually covers the entire field once it’s drained.
When the greenery is thick and lush, he mows it (another advantage of natural stuff, since you can’t legally manipulate planted crops for waterfowl), puts the boards back into place, and then pumps in about 10 inches of water. “Flood the field when the average air temperature is above 55 degrees and you’ll get a lot more bugs,” he says. To start a new field or rejuvenate an old one, Vandemore plows or disks to disturb the seed bank, waits for natural vegetation to cover the area, mows, and then just adds water.
Vandemore’s fields see a steady swarm of ducks, starting with bluewings in August, soon followed by pintails, gadwalls, wigeon, and mallards. Ducks keep using the fields until they freeze.
“We shoot plenty of birds over moist-soil vegetation through November,” Vandemore says. “I’ve always believed that if you can hold those early ducks as they’re on the way down, you’ll hold the birds behind them, too.”
Vandemore’s Hunt Tips
✖”Pick your decoy spread up after every hunt or you’ll ruin a good field.”
✖”If it’s colder than 20 degrees, don’t hunt until midmorning. Otherwise, you’ll blow ducks off the field in the dark, it will freeze, and they won’t come back.”

Motorola is expected to unveil its two new mid-range smartphones, the Moto G5 and the Moto G5 Plus at MWC 2017 in less than a week. While an accidental leak by a retailer nearly spilled all the beans, the Moto G5 might turn out to be a bit more interesting than earlier presumed. At least based on this latest, uncorroborated leak. According to the info, the Moto G5’s fingerprint scanner will be capable of gestures that could make navigation buttons redundant.
Fingerprint sensor gestures seem to be the new fad for the sensor. Although a few OEMs already implement something similar, it became a hot topic when the Google Pixel sported the feature but was initially withheld from other more recent Nexus devices, despite having capable hardware.
Those gestures, however, are mostly limited to swiping down, which is usually mapped to rolling down the notification panel. In contrast, the Moto G5’s sensor can supposedly function more like a touchpad, identifying swipes in other directions. Swiping to the left, for example, can be assigned to the “Back” action.
In practice, this could mean that a single button can replace the whole navigation panel, making that panel unnecessary. Indeed, there might be a way to hide that panel and give the full screen to the display, as hinted by the shot above. Of course, it could also simply be a setting, where the navigation buttons automatically hiding and showing by swiping on the screen.
The leak also shows the shiny metal back of the Moto G5. According to the leak, that back will still be removable and so will the battery. It is definitely a bonus especially since the Moto G5 isn’t compatible with Moto Mods, especially those that extend battery life.

If you've ever woken up with a major hangover following a night full of several rounds of tequila shots, we've got news for you. Scientists have discovered an actual, scientific link between tequila and weight loss.
And it's not just because following a few tequila shots you show extra enthusiasm while throwing some shapes on the dance floor.
The American Chemical Society carried out some much-needed research into the effect of tequila on blood sugar levels, and actually discovered that sugars found in the agave plant—which is what tequila is made from—is non-digestible and therefore cannot raise your blood sugar level.
To further this wonderful evidence, researchers carried out tests on mice. They found that the mice who were given a standard diet followed by water containing agavins had a lesser appetite than those who weren't given any agavins. They also had generally lower blood sugar levels, and were found to have the hormone GLP-1, which causes the stomach to feel fuller for longer.
So basically, TEQUILA WINS.
Although we're assuming this discovery probably comes slapped with a great big "everything in moderation" disclaimer, we're still going to take it and run with it. We'll see you at the bar.

I have a 4-year-old male and a 3-year-old female miniature Schnauzer. The male is extremely jealous of the female and won’t even let her eat in peace or sit in my lap without reacting. What could be causing this behavior and how can I stop it?
From the Editors of The Dog Daily
Showing aggression is one of the most common -- yet quite serious -- problems seen in dogs. There are different forms of this: possessive aggression (when a dog challenges others over favorite objects and people), territorial aggression (when a dog defends its territory, which may even include you) and dominant aggression (when a dog asserts its strength and status over another dog). There are other types, but it sounds like your dog displays all three of these.
Neutering, if you haven't done that already, can solve many such problems. Also, depending on how your pet was raised as a puppy, or what training he has received, aggression can be something that emerges in very young dogs that they will not outgrow on their own: They must be properly trained and socialized.
You need to assert your pack leadership over your male dog. When you tell him to stop doing something, he must learn to obey your commands. If your dog has already gone through basic training, regularly reinforce those exercises.
For the sake of your younger female dog, yourself and your houseguests, you may want to try professional obedience training for your dog, even if this will be a refresher course. An experienced trainer can work with your pet over a period of time. If your dog is acting out among familiar faces, he's likely to be in an even more combative mood around complete strangers.

Why Tesla Will Dominate Autonomous Driving
Due to the nature of the technology, we believe that autonomous driving is set up to be a winner take all market, much like how Google dominates search today. In this blog we will review the key pillars required to win autonomous driving and why Tesla is poised for the win.
1. Redundant Camera DataTo win autonomous driving, the car must drive better than a human.
Redundant Camera Data means having both 360 degree camera coverage and plenty of data. With these combined there is a path to greatly exceed a human person’s ability to drive.
The majority of autonomous vehicle companies claim that Redundant Camera Data is not sufficient to achieve full autonomy and tout that LiDAR is on the critical path. However, several papers, one from 2018 before Tesla’s Autonomy Day presentation and one from 2020, outline that current deep learning technology can recreate the depth data that LiDAR provides, rendering LiDAR largely obsolete. LiDAR is not on the critical path for autonomy.
With simply 360 degree coverage, and the right neural network training, a car can achieve superhuman driving ability. Let’s take a look at a couple approaches.
No Redundant Cameras
GM adds cameras to their Cadillac line for Super Cruise, but it is only forward facing. Humans can look in front, to the side, and behind the car with mirrors, so this solution will never become fully autonomous.
Redundant Cameras But No Data
Google’s Waymo has cameras everywhere, but has no scale. Each Waymo has multiple $7,500 LIDARs that make the vehicle cost nearly $200,000 at the time of this writing. This makes for good demo rides, but without massive scale, there isn’t enough data fed into the machine learning system to interpret the world and drive safer than a human.
Redundant Cameras at Scale
With 360 degree camera coverage at scale, there is enough data fed into the system to unlock the latest in machine learning technology, including the ability to do trajectory planning across multiple frames (4D data). Tesla has managed to get people to pay them to give Tesla data since every Tesla since 2019 feeds them the data to unlock autonomy. This is in stark contrast to having to pay test drivers to capture a much smaller dataset, which forces them to use sensors like LiDAR as a crutch.
To win autonomous driving, there needs to be a lasting cost advantage.
2. Low Maintenance Electric Fleet
A gas car could be the first autonomous car, but the advantage would be short lived due to the cost per mile. Say a gas vehicle takes at least $1/mile to operate since gas vehicles have higher maintenance costs, higher fuel costs and a human needs to fill up the gas for basic safety reasons. An electric vehicle could cost $0.25/mile to operate due to dramatically lower maintenance costs and the ability to charge through induction (wirelessly), without paying a person to fuel up for safety reasons. At full autonomy, the electric autonomous car would completely price out the gas one and would make the gas autonomous car company go bankrupt.
Why Tesla Will Win This Core Pillar
Per Mile Efficiency
Tesla has the most efficient and lowest cost per mile EV fleet out there and is set to continue its leadership in this area. As of January 2021, there is no production EV that has beaten the 2012 Model S’s 265 miles of range and Tesla hasn’t stayed still. The current Model S exceeds 400 miles of range.
Tesla’s range obsession would not be impressive if they simply increased the size of their battery, but they have managed to increase range through better manufacturing, and the lowest drag coefficients in the industry. The Tesla Model 3 has a drag coefficient of .23, which is even lower than the Toyota Prius. This results in more miles per kwh, which ultimately reduces costs in an autonomous car.
On top of that, Tesla’s cars are designed to last a million miles, including the battery. If Waymo’s gas cars only last 200k miles, but Tesla’s cars are designed to last a million miles, the cost of the car amortized over the miles driven will be much less for the Tesla. There are no other electric car manufacturers who focused on the longevity of their batteries like Tesla has.
Car Manufacturing Efficiency
Tesla's relentless improvement culture allows them to think of innovative solutions to save costs. Tesla managed to reduce 70 separate pieces into a single piece of casted aluminum.
3. Custom Neural Network Chip
Currently $200,000 Waymo vehicles are giving autonomous rides to people in Arizona. The trunks of these cars are filled with computer servers that eat up massive amounts of energy. This means that the trips these cars provide are limited to 30 minutes, and are not able to be ‘go anywhere’ robocars.
Tesla is Winning in This Core Autonomy Pillar for Two ReasonsSpeed of Chip Development
Tesla’s chips have been analyzed as being 6 years ahead of Toyota and VW, and at least 3 years ahead of the most advanced Nvidia Orin chip.
By designing their own chip, Tesla was able to leapfrog other automakers and capture a lead in hardware. This is critical to winning autonomy because whoever is first to having the most autonomous capable cars on the road will be able to win the most critical factor, which is being able to collect enough varied data to train the machine learning models to superhuman capabilities.
Tesla’s chip also has a wide energy efficiency advantage over the trunk full of servers Waymo is forced to use. Without energy efficiency it would be impossible to have a low maintenance electric fleet and automakers would be stuck with the problem of having to charge the autonomous car for 5 hours after every 1 hour trip.
Nvidia’s future Orin chip will be much more energy efficient than Nvidia’s current Xavier chips, but Tesla has not stayed still. They plan to have a 5nm chip by the time Orin is released, which will be much more powerful and energy efficient than Tesla’s current chip.
Without the right disruptive culture, there is no way to maintain a dominant lead in autonomous cars.
4. Relentless Improvement Culture
For example, a company may come out with the first autonomous car but it is a gas powered car. Then the first one would be disrupted by the electric car.
Say someone comes out with the first autonomous electric car. Another company can disrupt that company if they are able to reduce costs more than the first one.
Since autonomous driving is a subscription model, cost leadership, electric vehicle efficiency and safety are paramount to maintain the lead, and the company that has the right culture is set to maintain that lead.
Tesla proves this in spades. They continue to increase car efficiency with innovative solutions like taking the excess heat from the onboard supercomputing chip and using it to heat the car. Or casting the entire back of the car as one piece instead of assembling 70 pieces individually. Each of these improvements secure a cost per mile advantage, which ultimately results in the most affordable autonomous driving service, and Tesla’s improvement culture unlocks this.
We are living in the midst of some of the biggest technological transitions in decades. This presents enormous opportunities for investors who see it and makes it even more important to concentrate on the likely winners in this space. A first principles research approach helps us see which company is close to actually achieving full autonomous driving, and cut through all the noise and hype that the competitors are desperately trying to put out there.
