This has been an exciting year for food allergy research as scientists work to find answers, better understand food allergies, and incorporate new guidelines into practice. In this review, we’ll discuss some of the most exciting research this year in the areas of food allergy diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and prevalence.
Diagnosing food allergies is a significant challenge because there is no one laboratory test that can definitively diagnose food allergy. Inaccurate diagnosis may lead to unnecessary anxiety, over-restriction, and potentially to nutritional deficiency. Moreover, because of the high numbers of false-positive results in blood and skin tests, the oral food challenge is the gold standard, but includes the risk for severe reactions. Researchers are working to find new and better diagnostic tests for diagnosing food allergies with more accuracy and less risk. One such test is the Mass Cell Activation Test (MAT). In this test, a small amount of blood from the potentially allergic individual is used to provoke a response to suspected allergens in a laboratory test. In a recent study of 42 peanut-sensitized subjects published in the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology in August 2018, researchers compared the results of this test with the results of oral food challenges (the gold standard for food allergy diagnosis) and found the test to be better than other diagnostic tools currently available. The limitations of this research are that the peanut-sensitized subjects do not represent the general population with “indeterminate diagnostics” and more research is suggested.
The much-anticipated phase 3 Peanut Allergy Oral Immunotherapy Study of AR101 for DEsensitization (PALISADE) study results were released this year further supporting the benefit of oral immunotherapy (OIT) in desensitizing individuals with peanut allergy was summarized and published in the New England Journal of Medicine November 18, 2018. In this study of 551 participants, 496 of whom were peanut allergic children age 4-17 years old, the treatment with powdered peanut butter in progressively increasing doses from 6mg to 300mg peanut protein resulted in a significant increase in tolerance. Seventy-seven percent of participants were able to tolerate 300mg, 67.2% were able to tolerate 600mg, and 50% were able to tolerate 1000mg peanut protein at the end of the trial. There were nine significant adverse events, including one severe case of anaphylaxis, however there were no deaths or life-threatening reactions. Limitations to the trial include the population being specific to those peanut allergic individuals age 4-17. In addition, the study population was limited to those with sensitivity to no more than 100mg peanut protein at the start, but without asthma or chronic gastrointestinal symptoms. Most were also male and white. Long-term outcomes are also unknown, as the study was limited to 6 months of follow up. A summary of the results of this trial can be found in the research summary presentation, presented at the 2018 American Academy of Allergy Asthma & Immunology annual meeting in Orlando, Florida.
Epicutaneous immunotherapy (EPIT) (sometimes called “patch”) for peanut allergy has shown itself to be safe and effective in peanut allergic participants, but provides modest effects as compared to oral immunotherapy. In this treatment, participants wear a small skin patch inoculated with peanut protein. Small amounts of peanut protein are absorbed through the skin with increasing doses over time. The next phase of research on EPIT will be among toddlers, as researchers believe younger children will gain even more benefit. Learn more about EPIT here.
On the heels of the NIAID Guidelines for Preventing Peanut Allergies, researchers are gathering data on how the new guidelines are being implemented and their effect. One concern regarding introducing peanut foods to infants among professionals and parents has been the potential for serious reactions. In one large study, researchers reviewed the discharge records of 357 cases of food anaphylaxis from an emergency department to characterize the types of reactions observed among infants and children. They reported reactions among infants were primarily hives and vomiting with anaphylaxis due to peanut and tree nut consumption happening at a “lower rate” than among older children. The primary limitation to this study was that the food allergies were not confirmed through testing.
According to the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering & Medicine’s 2017 report Finding a Path to Safety in Food Allergy, the true prevalence of food allergy is not known. However, researchers conducted a survey with 38,408 households with children responding and results published in December’s Pediatrics. According to the report, 7.6% of responding parents reported a food allergy in a child in their home. The data showed that peanut allergy could be as high as 2.2%, with milk allergy close behind at 1.9%, followed by shellfish (1.3%) and tree nut (1.2%). Among food allergic infants younger than 1 year, more than ½ were allergic to milk. In fact, milk allergy was the most common allergy among children under 5 years old. Peanut allergy appeared to peak among 6-10 year olds, decreasing to 2.1% among 14-17 year olds in the survey. The limitation of this study is that the participants’ food allergies were not objectively confirmed, but relied completely on parent-report, which can result in inaccurate report of food allergy (and potential over-estimation). With the implementation of early introduction to potentially prevent peanut allergy, the hope is that peanut allergy will be far less prevalent in future generations.
Indeed, it was an active year in food allergy research. Yet, we still have much to learn. NPB plays an active role in the efforts to help support food allergy research, education and outreach.


SSC Unleashes the Tuatara’s Exquisite Interior
SSC’s answer to Bugatti’s record breaking Veyron came in the form of the ultra-fast and expertly designed Tuatara released about a year ago. This supercar boasts of an insane quad-cam, twin-turbo 6.8L V8 barreling out a colossal 1350HP and a proposed top speed of 275 mph! Basically, this car is shaping up to be a heart-stopping, Veyron-slaying super car of epic proportions, and now we can match the killer looks and power with the advanced interior recently developed by SSC.
This futuristic interior was developed following the aerospace design found on the exterior. In fact, many of the interior elements found on the Tuatara resemble specific elements of the exterior. For example, the two small, informational HUD displays situated on the left and right of the driver are inspired by the Tuatara’s rear winglets and the central AC vents were inspired by the Tuatara’s twin central exhausts. The holes pattern on the top of the central console area are inspired by the hole patterns on the Tuatara’s exterior body panels and the door pulls even have their exterior counterpart in the flying buttresses from the rear sides of the car.
Click here for a video of the car’s interior.
More on the interior of the SSC Tuatara after the jump.
Design aside, the Tuatara’s interior was built for optimum information gathering. The HUD displays previously mentioned are joined by a main gauge cluster area that is in fact a glass screen is lit up by Pico projectors and is similar to a HUD (Heads Up Display). The right HUD will offer information on the current gear of the car, while the left HUD will let the driver choose the info he needs using a menu on the central command console.
A "Start" button will initiate a clockwise-motion lighting sequence on the red lights located around the start button. When all these lights turn on the engine will start. The central console features buttons located near the touch screen and help the driver to control functions like traction control, driving modes, etc.
Even the front passenger can stay well-informed in the Tuatara as SSC has included two small screens that provide him details on the current speed, RPM, or BHP.
One of the best features of the interior, however, is the seven-speed H-pattern manual gear shift designed after classic exotics. An automatic unit will also be offered in a steering column mounted seven-speed paddle shifter.


NSIA has called for more government regulation in the design and construction of fishing vessels after fatal incident onboard the FV Leander
A Norwegian marine casualty investigation report has called for more Government regulation in the design and construction of fishing vessels.
The safety recommendation was made by the Norwegian Safety Investigation Authority in its report into an occupational accident onboard the fishing vessel ‘Leander’ outside Hamningberg in Båtsfjord on 22 June 2020.
The accident occurred on board a combined purse-seiner and Danish-seine where one person died. The investigation into the accident showed that there was no physical barrier in place to protect the person from the great impact of the net crane (crane with transport roller) and net bins. While the net crane was moving, the person who died was standing in the danger zone between the two net bins. This was an exposed position with little possibility of avoiding the net crane when it moved unintentionally.
Various solutions are available to provide physical barriers against impact and crush injuries. The Norwegian Safety Investigation Authority said it is of the opinion that it is necessary for shipowners to make more use of net crane stop arrangements than is currently the case.
Two safety recommendations are submitted to the Norwegian Maritime Authority in this connection.
Safety recommendation Marine no. 2022/01T
On Monday 22 June 2020, a work accident occurred on board the fishing vessel Leander. A member of the crew was crushed to death between the net crane and net bins. The person who died was standing in a very exposed position when an unintended incident occurred. Previous investigations by the Norwegian Safety Investigation Authority have shown that the current regulations for the construction of fishing vessels contain few requirements relating to danger zones in connection with the operation of fishing gear.
Government authorities do not pay enough attention to operational safety during the construction phase. The NSIA has also in connection with previous investigations pointed out that it is essential to map, assess and safeguard all work processes during the construction phase before the vessel is put into operation. The current regulations for design and construction of vessels do little to safeguard the personal safety of fishing crew during the future operational phase.
The Norwegian Safety Investigation Authority recommends that the Norwegian Maritime Authority consider the introduction of functional requirements for cranes to have stop functions to prevent impact and crush injuries.
Safety recommendation Marine no. 2022/02T
On Monday 22 June 2020, a work accident occurred on board the fishing vessel Leander. A member of the crew was crushed to death between the net crane and net bins. The person was standing in a very exposed position when an unintended incident occurred. There was no physical barrier to prevent the violent forces of impact from the net crane (crane and roller). It is possible to arrange net crane stop functions, and such functions are in fact used on board fishing vessels today, but their purpose is mainly to ensure efficient operation. The same technology can be used to ensure physical barriers that prevent people from being exposed to violent forces.
The Norwegian Safety Investigation Authority recommends that the Norwegian Maritime Authority cooperate with relevant special interest organisations for fishing vessels to provide guidance on the use of net crane stop arrangements as a physical barrier to prevent impact and crush injuries.

>When this body has run its course
and mortal life takes it final bow
and the futile strivings against the ever flowing tide
recede into nothing,
what blessings can be said to remain?
Under the sky I find the prison door open
for the vagabond’s travels
but I have these flowers,
and this scrap of sunlight in the dust,
and in the frequent dark
I find embraces to remind my heart
to carry on; for with this imperfect love
I still know the infinite
distilled in time,
translated in sin,
held in hope,
and promising blessings.
And it is there and there and
there, in the terror and the joy,
that I hear the voice.

The Apple iPhone 6s has been released last fall and soon, it will receive a successor, while the LG G5 has hit the stores in April 2016 and it short time, the South Korean manufacturer came with a mid-range variant of it. Today we will compare the two flagships and you will decide whether to spend your money on an iOS-based or Android-based smartphone.
The iPhone 6s measures 138.3×67.1×7.1mm and weights 143 grams. There’s no difference between it and the previous model in terms of design, as both of them have an aluminum body with lines on the back that hide the radio antennas, only that the new model comes in a new variant of color – Rose Gold. The LG G5 is thicker and heavier as it measures 149.4×73.9×7.7mm and weights 159 grams. It has also a metal body, but with a modular design, allowing you to swap in and out extra component modules and to be more satisfied with the performance of your phone.
The iPhone 6s has a LED-backlit IPS LCD display of 4.7-inch that supports a resolution of 1334×750 pixels at 326 ppi. The LG G5 comes with a bigger IPS LCD display of 5.3-inch that supports a higher resolution of 2560×1440 pixels at 554 ppi.
Processors, Graphics Cards & RAM
The iPhone 6s features a Apple A9 chipset, a dual-core Twister CPU clocked at 1.84GHz, a PowerVR GT7600 (six-core graphics) graphics card and 2GB of RAM. The LG G5 has a Qualcomm MSM8996 Snapdragon 820 chipset, a dual-core Kryo CPU clocked at 2.15GHz and a dual-core Kryo CPU clocked at 1.6GHz, an Adreno 530 graphics card and 4GB of RAM.
The iPhone 6s has been released in three internal storage variants of 16GB, 64GB and 128GB, but it doesn’t support a microSD card slot for storage expansion. The LG G5 comes in an internal storage of 32GB which you can expand up to 256GB using a microSD card.
The iPhone 6s sports a primary camera of 12MP that features dual-LED flash, phase detection autofocus, geo-tagging, touch focus, face detection, HDR, panorama, touch focus and a secondary camera of 5MP. The LG G5 has a dual-primary camera of 16MP and 8MP that features laser autofocus, LED flash, OIS, geo-tagging, touch focus, face detection, HDR, panorama and a secondary camera of 8MP.

As pressure builds over .org sell-off, internet governance bodies fall back into familiar pattern: Silence
Protests kick off, Vint Cerf tells folks everything's fine
One week after the news the non-profit .org internet registry was to be sold to a private equity firm, the board of the organization that has to approve the purchase met in private to discuss the situation.
Four days after that organization – ICANN – met on November 21, it has yet to say a word about what it discussed or decided.
This past weekend, the board of the organization that is selling the rights to .org, and which will likely make $1bn or more from the sale, the Internet Society, met. On both the Saturday and Sunday, the proposed sale was a key topic of conversation. It has yet to provide any details on what was discussed or decided.
The same cannot be said for those opposed to the deal.
One of the earliest indicators that the deal was going to meet a very different response from the internet community than the Internet Society (ISOC) expected came in the form of an article written by one person who has set up and run their own registry.
Co-founder of the .eco top-level domain Jacob Malthouse wrote an impassioned plea online that began, “I woke up this morning feeling a profound sense of loss.” An environmental campaigner as well as a former staffer of ICANN, Malthouse compared the sale of the .org registry to the paving over of forests.
The proudly non-profit .org registry, that had for years sold its domains for just $1 to non-profits in developing countries, is “our Yosemite,” Malthouse opined, referring to America's world-famous national park. In selling it to a for-profit private equity firm, he argued, “we’ve lost more than a digital Yosemite. We’ve lost our principles. We can do better. The millions of nonprofits who rely on .org deserve better.”
You've got mail
That sentiment was quickly echoed in the broader internet industry community, which, even in the era of Twitter, Facebook and Instagram, continues to rely on mailing lists as its main form of communication.
Both ICANN and ISOC are member-based organizations and, theoretically at least, give as an equal voice to ordinary netizens as to the corporations that make billions a year from the sale and resale of internet addresses.
The voice of those ordinary internet users was unmistakable and loud: the mailing lists were flooded with messages of surprise, frustration, and anger. For a community that is frequently criticized for moving too slowly due to its culture of debate and discussion, the news that a fundamental piece of internet infrastructure was being sold off without so much as a conversation was difficult to stomach for many.
The fact that there wasn’t a discussion outside the confines of the boards of ISOC and PIR – the outfit that manages the registry and is wholly owned by ISOC – was very deliberate, many feel. If there had been a discussion, they argue, the internet community would never have allowed it to happen.
As we reported last week, the situation is especially fraught due to two additional factors. The first is that the offer to sell the rights to .org only came about because ICANN had approved the lifting of longstanding price caps on .org domains just months earlier.
The price of .org domains has been limited to an increase of 10 per cent per year since it was first handed over to the non-profit PIR in 2003. The request to remove those price caps entirely received an extraordinary response – more than 3,200 comments in a process that rarely elicits more than 50 – and a stark 98 per cent of those comments were opposed to the idea.
And yet ICANN approved the change, along with a 10-year contract extension, in an unannounced staff decision that some called a “sham” and others claimed was a sign that the organization was subject to regulatory capture.
Then came the news that ISOC had decided to sell the registry to Ethos Capital, an unknown private equity firm that had been established only months earlier.
That is where the second factor comes in. It quickly became apparent that Ethos Capital was likely the brainchild of a former CEO of ICANN, Fadi Chehade, who had been largely responsible for pushing free-market economics into the internet registry market and now appeared to be using that knowledge to profit from one of its oldest institutions.
Ethos Capital still has not confirmed Chehade’s involvement although he was present this week at the headquarters of PIR along with the CEO of Ethos Capital, Erik Brooks, in a meet-and-greet with what will presumably be their staff if the deal goes through.
There is another similarity between Ethos Capital and the organization that Chehade used to oversee, and which remains the only thing that stands in the way of the .org sale: silence. Ethos Capital continues to refuse to say anything about its offer for .org – how much, how it will be structured, what its intent is, whether it will raise prices and, critically, where it gets its funds from.
The answer to that question – who is funding the purchase of .org? – has been a key one. And in response to repeat questions from his community, the CEO of ISOC Andrew Sullivan provided an answer on a closed ISOC members mailing list.
The response shocked as many people as the initial sale announcement: the bulk of the money would come from the investment vehicles of renowned US Republican billionaires: Perot Holdings, tied to former presidential candidate Ross Perot; FMR LLC, closely associated with the Johnson family, one of the Republican Party’s biggest backers; and Solamere Capital, tied to Republican senator Mitt Romney.
Everything must go
To some, the fact that the .org registry was being sold to the richest men in the United States who would then profit from non-profit organizations was doubly insulting.
After its board meeting ended on Sunday, ISOC published an information website about the sale on a separate website: Key Points About.org.
The site contains two pieces of information that had not previously been shared with The Register and the community: the connection between former ICANN CEO Chehade and Ethos Capital, and a support quote from ISOC president, former ICANN chair and revered internet figure Vint Cerf.
“Is Fadi Chehade involved in this transaction?” the site asked, before responding: “Fadi Chehade’s company, Chehade & Company, is an adviser to Ethos. Chehade & Company is an advisory company with clients across the technology, education and creative sectors.”
Cerf was quoted as saying: “I am looking forward to supporting Ethos Capital and PIR in any way I can as they continue to expand the utility of the .org top-level domain in creative and socially responsible ways.”
And in an attempt to ease concerns about what will happen to the .org registry, it details Ethos Capital's stated intent over the sale, which is notably lacking in detail and commitment.
Asked about possible price increases, it answers: “Ethos Capital is committed to keeping .org accessible and reasonably priced for all, in line with PIR’s longstanding, purpose-driven mission. Our plan is to live within the spirit of historic practice when it comes to pricing, which means, potentially, annual price increases of up to 10 percent on average – which today would equate to approximately $1 per year.”
Asked on the ISOC members list about the risks of .org domain holders facing domains as much as $60 a year, Cerf surprised many when he responded: “Hard to imagine that $60/year would be a deal breaker for even small non-profits.”
Trust and wealth
That comment prompted Malthouse to point out that $60 is the equivalent of two weeks’ wages in sub-Sahara Africa, where a large number of non-profits rely on their internet presence for awareness of their efforts.
Not only that but Africa is the largest growing market in the world for domain names as it gradually pulls more of its citizens online. As such, the sale of the .org registry could well push one of the most recognized addresses on the internet outside the reach of most of the continent.
Internet world despairs as non-profit .org sold for $$$$ to private equity firm, price caps axedREAD MORE
As silence reigns in the companies that will decide the future of .org, its opponents have grown louder. A coalition of 27 high-profile non-profits, including the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF), National Council of Nonprofits, YMCA, Free Software Foundation (FSF), Girls Scouts of the USA, Internet Archive, and Wikimedia Foundation, have signed a letter to ICANN urging it to stop the sale and launched a petition site that, at the time of writing, has over 7,000 supporters,
The letter warns that the sale could “do significant harm to the global NGO sector,” and that Ethos Capital “has not earned the trust of the NGO community.”
While the idea of “trust” may seem unusual in the context of internet addresses, it also underscores the growing anger being directed at those on the boards of both ICANN and ISOC that the internet community feels are supposed to protect ordinary users from the profit-making imperatives of large corporations and corporate raiders.
Both organizations have already made decisions about whether to listen to the clearly expressed concerns of the internet community they exist to represent, or to push ahead with the sale, which is set to complete in the first quarter of next year.
The fact that neither organization is prepared to say what those decisions are days later is both a sign that they don’t expect them to be well received and, critics say, a sign that they have managed to insulate themselves from proper accountability. ®

What have nightclubs and lemons got in common? The answer may not be that obvious but the common link is the “inflation basket” of the 700 most used goods and services which the Office for National Statistics (ONS) uses to determine price movements for the inflation rate.
This inflation basket dates back nearly 70 years and the ONS currently uses around 180,000 separate price quotations for goods and services within the basket every month to come up with an inflation number for the whole UK economy.
Each year the items within the basket are updated to take account of changes in consumers spending patterns and a dozen or so items are added or dropped from the basket.
This year nightclubs have been removed from the basket as the younger generation are now preferring to do other things rather than go to nightclubs.
In the last 10 years the number of nightclubs in the UK has fallen from over 3,000 to less than 1,750.
In a great illustration of the impact that changes in the PESTEL environmental analysis model can have, there are several reasons for the decline in nightclubs including:
Economic – student grants have been replaced by student loans and as a result the students themselves now have less money to spend on expensive nightclub drinks.
Social – socialising with friends now more and more involves social media. Why meet up in a dark nightclub when you can Snapchat for example? Also, very dark nightclubs will limit the opportunities for photos for your Facebook feed…
Technology – whereas in the past people would often go to nightclubs to meet new people, websites such as the dating site Tinder now make it easier to meet new people without having to go to the trouble of trying to communicate with someone by shouting at the top of your voice in a nightclub which is so dark you can hardly see the person you’re shouting at…
Legal – the smoking ban imposed in recent years has impacted on the number of smokers who go to nightclubs (incidentally, electronic cigarette refills have been added to the basket this year following the increase in popularity of e-cigarettes)
What about lemons? Well Lemons have been added to the basket.
An increase in the popularity of home cooking driven by all of the cooking programmes currently on TV has led to a surge in demand for lemons.
So lemons are in and nightclubs are out.
Other changes include the removal of GPS satnavs for cars (more people are using their smartphones for directions) and the addition of mobile phone covers.

The Indian car manufacturer Tata Motors, part of the Tata Group, one of India’s largest conglomerates recently skilfully averted what could have been a major international marketing mistake.
Tata motors, who also own the Land Rover and Jaguar brands, are about to launch a new small hatchback car. They debuted it at the recent 2016 Auto Expo as the Zica (short for Zippy Car) but following the rapidly spreading Zika virus which has infected over a million people in Latin America and which was declared an international health emergency, they decided to change the name to avoid any unwanted links between the two names.
The car will now be launched as the Tiago and the change was impressively dealt with by the company. They reacted quickly to the similarity and ran a competition via social media for the public to choose the new name. Over 30,000 names were put forward in the competition but Tiago was selected by the public as the winner.
However, if you look up the definition of Tiago in the Urban Dictionary the top two definitions are firstly, “Tiago is a great Portuguese king” and secondly “Tiago is a sex God who is…”.
I’m not sure the Tata marketing guys looked at the Urban Dictionary before agreeing to Tiago but in any case, if you see a man driving a Tiago then surely he’s either the Portuguese king or a sex God…
https://www.theexpgroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/tata-zica.jpg17583125Stevehttps://www.theexpgroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/styleguide-EXP-4.pngSteve2016-03-10 17:48:252016-03-10 17:48:25What’s in a name?
Well, if you are male and your boss is also male there could be some disappointing career news for you if you think you are better looking than your boss.
A recent study has suggested that male bosses are less likely to promote good-looking men who work for them.
The study by University College London’s School of Management concluded that good-looking men were considered competent by their male bosses but as a result were also seen as a threat to them and their own personal career aspirations.
This raises an interesting point. Organisations no doubt want to employ the most competent people but if a male boss is reluctant to recruit or promote good-looking men because they take the view they are a threat to them personally then it means that good-looking men could be discriminated against whether or not they are competent.
Dr Sun Young Lee, the lead researcher on the study was quoted as saying “organisations want to hire competent candidates but individuals have their own agenda. When employing someone, they do not want the newcomer to do better than them and show them up”.
“What about good-looking females” I hear you say?
The study concluded that the same prejudice did not apply to women. Being a good looking lady was not associated with competence according to the study.
The study was published in the Organisational Behaviour and Human Decision Processes journal and Dr Lee felt her results suggested that organisations should consider appointing external recruitment consultants to avoid personal preferences impacting on recruitment decisions.
One additional point though is that if you yourself are male and have recently been overlooked for a promotion by your male boss then surely the only reason you didn’t get the promotion was because you are better looking than him…

My Little Pony is a very successful entertainment brand developed by the giant US toy multinational company Hasbro. The My Little Pony range of products first started back in the early 1980s when a line of plastic pony toys was introduced.
Since then the toy line has been joined by a number of animated TV series as well as an animated full length feature film.
All in all, a great success but there’s now a potentially very serious issue concerning the font they use on their products.
Typeface company Font Brothers design fonts and last month filed a law suit against Hasbro claiming that My Little Pony uses one of their fonts without permission.
According to Font Brothers, Hasbro used their “Generation B” font for their My Little Pony products and website without obtaining the correct licence. In other words, they are claiming that My Little Pony is using a pirated font.
Now whilst some people may say that using a font is a minor issue, if the courts find that they have been using it without the proper licence then it could be a very serious matter.
The complaint filed at the New York federal court stated that “Defendant Hasbro has used or instructed others to use unauthorised copies of the Generation B Font in the creation of, but not limited to, all products, goods, merchandise, television and film properties, and advertising material connected with the ‘My Little Pony’ product line…”.
It went on to say that “Defendant Hasbro has created unauthorised and infringing copies of the Generation B Font software and impermissibly distributed the same to third parties.”
Some fonts are so similar that it is difficult to prove which font is being used but the style sheet on Hasbro’s website specifically mentioned the Generation B Font so it will be difficult for them to claim that they weren’t using the font!
It looks like Font Brothers tried to settle matters before it got to court as they wrote in their complaint that they had contacted Hasbro about the unauthorised use but the toy company refused to license the font for their products.
The matter is now in the hands of the court but seeing as the infringements cover such a significant product there is a chance that damages could amount to a significant figure.
It may well be that it wasn’t My Little Font but it was in fact Your Little Font.

Buying whisky or investing in whisky – that’s an interesting question and my guess is that most people who buy whisky are planning on gently pouring it into a glass and maybe adding some ice or a mixer before settling back to savour the flavour (before possibly waking up the next day with a headache…)
But should you be buying whisky as an investment rather than as a consumable item?
Most people are aware of the leading share indexes around the world such as the FTSE 100 and the S&P 500 (which show the index for the largest 100 and 500 companies quoted on the London and New York stock exchanges respectively) but there are also a number of other indexes out there.
These indexes measure movements and one of the more interesting ones is the Rare Whisky Apex 1000 which measures the price movement for rare scotch whisky.
It’s a significant market and last year there were rare whiskies sold at auction in the UK amounting to £9.6 million.
There was also a strong demand for rare whisky in Asia. In August last year a bottle of 1960 Japanese Karuizawa whisky was sold for over £80,000 which is a pretty significant figure for a bottle of whisky!
Back to the indexes though and the performance of the rare whisky index last year was impressive. It grew by 14%. Other indexes in comparison performed as follows in 2015:
FTSE 100 – down by 4.9%
S&P 500 – up by 0.7%
Gold index – fell by 10%.
So the increase in the Whisky index of 14% looks very good when compared to the major indexes but I guess there could be one problem.
Namely, if you’ve had a bit too much to drink and are looking for something to finish the evening off you’re more likely to drink some of your whisky investment than consume some of your share or gold investment.

Picture the scene. You set up a company with two of your university friends. Things are going well but as is often the case with start-ups the work is hard, the hours are long and there is no initial salary.
Chris Hill-Scott was one such entrepreneur who founded a tech start-up business back in 2008 together with fellow Cambridge University graduates Jon Reynolds and Ben Medlock.
After setting up the company and getting it off of the ground, Mr Hill-Scott decided that being an entrepreneur was not for him. He resigned as a director, left the business and transferred his shares in the company to Mr Reynolds and Mr Medlock in exchange for a bicycle.
We’ve all done things that we have regretted but in hindsight Mr Hill-Scott should have stayed in the company. He now works for the Government Digital Service creating websites and it has been reported that the average salary for that type of job is in the region of £55,000.
The two gentlemen he left behind in the company though have faced a different journey. The name of the company the guys set up is SwiftKey and although you may not have heard of the company, you have almost certainly used their technology.
SwiftKey developed the predictive text technology which suggests the next word a user is about to type on their smartphone or tablet. It has been incredibly successful and their software is used on more than 300 million smartphones and tablets around the world.
The company estimates that the software it developed has saved over 10 trillion keystrokes for its users. Let’s just think about that figure for a moment. 10 trillion keystrokes – that amounts to more than 100,000 years of typing time and represents an awful lot of thumb pain which has been avoided.
SwiftKey is an incredibly successful company and yesterday Microsoft purchased the business for £174 million (or in dollar terms, just over one quarter of a billion dollars).
Mr Reynolds and Mr Medlock will both make more than £25 million each whilst Mr Hill Scott will receive nothing from the sale as he transferred his shares in the business in exchange for a bicycle.
It’s not clear how much the bicycle is worth but I don’t think you have to be a technology expert to predict what words that Mr Hill-Scott was probably thinking when he heard the news the business he helped set up had been sold for £174 million and he had received nothing….

Do you have children? Have they ever told you a lie? Even a small teeny weeny lie?
Well, if they have then although you may not be particularly pleased with them, it may actually mean that they have good memories and excellent thinking skills.
Psychologists at the University of Sheffield tested 135 children and found that those children that lied performed much better than the honest children in the group.
The children in the study were aged between 6 and 7 years old and during the study they were given a trivia game. The answers to the trivia game were on the back of the card which they had been given. Initially, each child was in a room accompanied by one of the researchers but the researcher then left the child alone with the card with the answer on the back.
Before leaving the room the researcher told the children not to look at the answer but what the children didn’t know was that when they were alone in the room there were hidden cameras which were monitoring whether they would look at the answers on the back.
25% of the group subsequently cheated and looked at the answers on the back of their cards but claimed that they hadn’t cheated when the researcher returned to the room.
At a later stage, all of the children had to perform a separate memory test and the research found that the children who had lied performed significantly better than those children who didn’t lie.
Dr Tracy Alloway, project lead from the University of North Florida was also involved in the research and said that “this research shows that thought processes, specifically verbal working memory, are important to complex social interactions like lying because the children needed to juggle multiple pieces of information while keeping the researcher’s perspective in mind”.
This has got me thinking as a lot of the readers of this blog are accountants or studying to be accountants.
“Thought processes”, “verbal working memory”, “juggling multiple pieces of information” and “keeping other people’s perspective in mind” are all skills which many accountants need.
Does this mean that you would make a good accountant if you were a good liar when you were a child?
Whatever your answer is, I’m not sure I would believe you…

Most of us have been there. Sat in a meeting when somebody decides to use “management speak” or “corporate jargon” to make something sound more impressive than it is.
You’ve probably heard of the phrase “think outside the box” but what about “let’s not boil the ocean”?
Michael Sugden, chief executive of the advertising agency VCCP, recently put together a list of the most irritating metaphors used in the corporate world.
He wrote in Marketing Magazine that the increased use of corporate jargon in recent years has resulted in meetings degenerating “into a quagmire of nonsensical verbal piffle”.
He put together his top 10 of the most annoying phrases and in reverse order the results are shown below.
Oh and in case you’re “not singing off the same hymn sheet” I’ve translated the “management speak” into English in the italics below the phrase.
10. Think outside the box – come up with new ideas…
9. I may have a window for you – I can see you on…
8. Content is king – first used by Bill Gates in 1996 to indicate that content would drive the success of the internet. It now appears to be used for random purposes in meetings…
7. Let’s not boil the ocean – let’s not make this too complicated…
6. Level playing field – keep things equal…
5. Let’s workshop this – let’s spend far too long talking about this in a meeting…
4. Shift the dial – to be honest I’m not 100% sure but possibly means talk about something else. Either way it sounds very dramatic in a meeting…
3. Let’s socialise this – let’s talk about this…
2. Fail forward – when something doesn’t work but we try to learn from it (if we still have a job after the error of course…)
1. Growth hacking – again, I don’t think anyone is 100% sure what it means but it does sound very impressive…
So, there you go. A list of 10 phrases to [impress / annoy – delete according to how you feel about the phrases] your colleagues at meetings.

Business is becoming very international nowadays and more and more people are spending time working as an expat in other countries.
If you do end up working abroad it can be a great opportunity to experience another culture. One thing that is highly recommended though is not to offend the locals when it comes to their traditions.
Michael Mcfeat, a British employee of Kyrgyzstan’s largest gold mine, learnt a valuable lesson recently about the dangers of commenting on local traditions.
Whilst at a New Year’s Eve party he posted on Facebook saying that his Kyrgyz colleagues were queueing up for their “special delicacy, the horse’s penis“.
Mr McFeat was joking about the national dish “chuchuk”.
Vegetarians and horses should look away now but chuchuk is a sausage made from horsemeat and horse intestines.
Now whilst a lot of people would have seen the joke that Mr McFeat was trying to make, it appears that not everyone shared his sense of humour.
Some of his colleagues who work at the Kumtor mine briefly went on strike and there were calls for him to be prosecuted as a number of people claimed his action of comparing one of their national dishes to a horse’s penis constituted “inciting hatred”. If he was found guilty of such a crime he could have faced between three and five years in prison.
It was good and bad news for Mr McFeat though.
Whilst he was detained by the state security service for questioning (bad news), he was released by them with only a warning (good news) but they found out that he didn’t have the correct work permit (bad news) and as a result he was deported from the country (bad news).
So, the end result is that he is now back home and no longer eating horse penis working as an expat.
https://www.theexpgroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/Expat_life.jpg9381668Stevehttps://www.theexpgroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/styleguide-EXP-4.pngSteve2016-01-09 00:54:332016-01-09 00:54:33It’s a horses what?!
How do you feel when you return to the office after a holiday?
Do you feel refreshed and raring to go?
Or are you at the other extreme and cannot stand being back at work and are just a whisper away from handing in your notice…
My guess is that a lot of you are somewhere in between. It’s nice to be back at work but if we’re honest an extra week of holiday would be quite nice.
If you could do with an extra week’s holiday then you are not alone.
One reddit user recently posted an excellent attempt at securing an extra week’s holiday. Whilst the culprit wasn’t trying to get an extra week away from the office. I think we can all learn something from her determination.
The reddit user who posted the image above explained that her “daughter got the mail today (it’s Sunday), apparently they have another week off school”.
A quick audit review of the evidence suggests a few problems.
First of all, it was delivered on a Sunday when there wasn’t a postal delivery. Secondly, “break” was spelt incorrectly.
But that’s only two inaccuracies I hear you say. What about the details that appear to indicate it’s a genuine letter?
For example, the information was written with a black pen whilst the signature was signed with a blue pen. Surely this indicates it’s genuine?
For me, the thing which convinces me that it is a real letter from the little girl’s school is that it has an official stamp on the letter indicating that it’s a genuine official letter from the school and the girl should be entitled to an extra week’s holiday.
Ok, so the stamp is of a pink princess but surely that would pass the audit review test?

The Falken Wildpeak H/T is designed for light pickup trucks, sport-utility vehicles, and sporty crossovers. In this test drive and review, I was able to acquire a 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser equipped with 17-inch aftermarket wheels and Falken Wildpeak H/T tires.
The owner of the Fj Cruiser decided to update the look of his SUV from a dedicated off-road machine to a swift highway cruiser. This was the reason for him to use the highway-terrain tires. I am familiar with the characteristics of the FJ Cruiser so I am excited to find out if the tires were enough to tone down the rugged manners of this SUV.
My test car used to be fitted with all-terrain tires that, in my mind, seemed better suited to the go-anywhere capabilities of the FJ Cruiser. The owner decided to buy a set of Falken Wildpeak H/T tires after her daughter went to college across two neighboring states. Since the SUV will now be cruising on seemingly endless amounts of open roads, I think the owner made a wise choice in changing his tires.
While I’m not a big fan of the Toyota FJ Cruiser, I know this SUV has the handling characteristics of a boat, although it feels more settled when exposed to the rudiments of extreme off-roading. Let’s see if the FJ Cruiser can really transform itself into a proper highway cruiser by simply changing from all-terrain to highway-terrain tires.

Falken Wildpeak H/T review: Features
This tire is equipped with a variable-pitch shoulder design for better handling and cornering while reducing tire roar at high speeds. There is a barrage of multi-wave lateral sipes on the tread that enhances traction on wet or snowy roads.
The Falken Wildpeak H/T was constructed utilizing an all-season M+S rated tread compound and wider steel belts to enhance the strength and durability of the tire. It comes with a 60,000-mile limited tread wear warranty and is available in 15” to 20” diameters.
The best part? You can order these tires with outlined white sidewall letters!
Falken Wildpeak H/T review: Test Drive
I was thoroughly impressed with the traction and grip on dry roads considering the roads were still a bit moist from the rains.
I would have wanted to extend the test drive so I can speed up on the dry and hot pavement, but the owner of my test car only gave me the entire day to complete my review.
Overall, I was impressed with the damp and wet capabilities of the Wildtrack H/T tires. I didn’t feel the tires lose grip even as I stepped hard on the gas pedal to coax a bit of wheel spin.
In this regard, I will give the tires an average score, but they can handle up to 6-inches of snow before traction became an issue.
If you live in a cold climate with inches upon inches of snow-covered roads you are better off with a set of chunkier all-terrain tires.
Tire roar was virtually nonexistent at slow to average speeds and there were only minor tidbits of noise at higher speeds. The FJ Cruiser did feel like a certified ‘cruiser’ since it can now conquer the highways without bothering the driver and occupants with unnecessary road noise.
I talked to the guys at the tire store and they told me the wear characteristics of the Falken Wildpeak H/T was slightly better than those offered by Michelin or Bridgestone.
Perhaps the biggest consideration for choosing the Falken Wildpeak H/T over other brands is the low base price, but this would seem unfair since the tire is worth more than the actual numerical value.
