Julie (from Detroit) and Tim (from York) got together (in Nottingham) to make mid-1990s bedroom dance-pop as (they thought) it should be. The album 'One-Off' was the result. From happy-house thru clubby-jazz to trip-hop. Multi-layered production, pop-sensibility, tunes, grooves, pizzazz. A refreshingly melodic cut-up of styles and moods.

By Julie O’Connor
As Francine Wade watched a school security guard being lifted into an ambulance last year, after trying to break up yet another student brawl at P.S. 41, she vowed her daughter would never, ever go there.
“I’m determined to find somewhere else,” Wade said recently, while waiting for her daughter’s number to be called in an admission lottery for a Jersey City charter school. “From the bottom of my heart, she will not go to that school.”
That public middle school, in a gritty area of Greenville, was recently restructured after nine years of failure. But Wade still can’t shake the image of police cars pulling up, sirens blaring, at that school across the street from her house.
In low-income neighborhoods like hers, the options are limited. Yet for all the talk about urban parents not being interested in their children’s education, each year thousands like Wade line up in districts all over the state in a desperate bid to get them into better schools.
New Jersey’s suburban schools are among the best in the nation, judging from test scores. But in the cities, many of the districts are disasters, failing students year after year. The most notorious ones become dropout factories, churning out hundreds of students each year who are unable to read, do basic math or function at a community college.
Pent-up demand is growing among an army of urban parents who want to escape that. Gov. Chris Christie has pounced on the issue with an aggressive plan to expand choice. He wants to expand the alternate public school system — charters — and supports a bill to provide vouchers for poor children to attend private schools.
Overall, charters show mixed results. But some are vastly outperforming urban district schools. Students are chosen by lottery, and an estimated 20,000 are on waiting lists across the state.
New Jersey has lagged behind many other states in charter school growth. But the governor last week proposed legislation that would place this state on the fast track to becoming one of the most hospitable to charters.
While approving a record 23 new charters, the governor said he wants to make sweeping changes to the state’s charter school law. He wants to improve oversight by allowing universities to select and close charters. He wants charters to sign contracts, as they do in other states, that set measurable performance benchmarks. And he wants to give them more autonomy and relief from bureaucratic regulations.
Only one key ingredient is missing: money. Charters get on average only 70 percent of the state funding that a local district school spends per student — and no public funding for facilities at all. Christie won’t even compel traditional schools to provide empty classroom space to charters.
So while he’s removing every regulatory roadblock he can find, it might not be enough. Several charter schools, even good ones, say they are in danger of closing.
“We have no money, and these folks in the charter movement know that,” Christie said. “So we are going to have to work in a period of diminished resources and be creative in how we can help them financially.”
A BIPARTISAN PUSH
For years, New Jersey politicians have promised to reform the public schools and close the achievement gap between minority and white children. Progress has been spotty, and no one is satisfied.
Now a Republican governor is stepping forward with a major education initiative that primarily impacts urban families — and one with strong bipartisan support.
President Obama favors expanding charter schools. And because urban schools are still struggling, a growing number of Democrats in New Jersey, including Newark Mayor Cory Booker and Rev. Reginald Jackson, head of the Black Ministers Council of New Jersey, agree parents deserve a choice.
“If the public school is not giving the child a quality education, the parent ought to have some options,” Jackson said. “Saying to poor parents, ‘Since you don’t have the money to put your child in another school, they have to stay in these failing schools’ is like saying, ‘If you don’t have the money to buy your way to freedom, you have to stay in slavery.’ ”
The governor touts new statistics that show a strong majority of charter schools in New Jersey last year outperformed their host districts. The reasons behind that are debatable, because differences exist in their student populations. But for many parents, the result isn’t: In Newark, the best charters send nearly all their graduates to college, while district schools average only around 10 percent.
“The reactions of parents when they find out their kid no longer has a 90 percent chance of going to college, but rather has a 10 percent chance of going to college, is exactly what you think it would be,” said Ryan Hill, founder of several high-performing city charters. “They’re just completely devastated.”
As the charter movement grows, it becomes more of a problem that the state Department of Education lacks the capacity to do its job: opening up charters and closing the bad ones down.
Just a handful of staffers are responsible for overseeing all of the state’s 73 charter schools. Even charter advocates criticize the DOE for failing to shut down bad schools, because their dismal results hurt the overall movement.
To strengthen oversight, Christie proposes that 31 public colleges and all local school boards also be eligible to open and close charter schools. Many would be much better equipped to evaluate charters than the DOE, says Jeanne Allen, president of the Center for Education Reform, a Washington, D.C., nonprofit that advocates for school choice.
And competition will likely lead to better, more innovative schools. Charters authorized by the State University of New York, for example, are dramatically better than New York charter schools approved by other entities, Stanford University researchers found.
The DOE “is a regulator. It doesn’t know anything about great schools,” Allen said. “Trying to make them cookie-cutter is at odds with the mission of charter schools.”
Instead of saying charters have to comply with state regulations on everything from buying books to getting teachers certified, Christie wants to replace a lot of those rules with performance contracts that set specific achievement standards. They would focus more on test results than regulatory compliance. That’s a welcome relief, said Hill, who runs the highly successful TEAM charter schools in Newark.
“If I want to buy a pencil — literally — I have to have two board members approve it and the whole board vote on it,” he said. “We’re supposed to find more efficient ways to do things, but because we’re similarly regulated, we end up having to build some of the same structures that make regular public schools so expensive.”
Unequal funding is still the biggest handicap for charter schools. They end up with less money because they get none of the so-called “adjustment aid” the state gives to districts. The disparity is greatest in places such as Camden, Paterson and Jersey City, where districts get the most adjustment aid. In Jersey City, charter schools get only 50 to 60 percent of the state money given to district schools.
So charters must resort to fundraising, an arduous process that takes time away from instruction. Christie hasn’t offered a way to fix that.
And it’s not the only financial dilemma facing charters. Unlike public schools, charters get no public money for facilities, which wouldn’t change under Christie’s proposal. The average charter school in New Jersey spends about 15 percent of its budget on rent.
Adding more entities to oversee charters could also be costly, and it’s not clear where that money would come from.
DETERMINED TO ENROLL
Charter school lotteries draw big crowds of parents — as well as desperation — and the movement is growing stronger politically as a result. In some places, such as Washington D.C. and Philadelphia, about one third of public school students are enrolled in charters. We might see similar growth in New Jersey’s cities.
Even though charters must scrape by with reduced state dollars, many parents who can’t afford private school still believe they’re the next best choice.
Anxious parents packed an auditorium two weeks ago for the annual admission lottery at Learning Community Charter School, a popular Jersey City K-8 pick. Nearly 300 students vied for 32 kindergarten slots. Openings were even sparser in the upper grades.
Leon Deguenon was there because he lost his job. The Greenville resident can no longer pay $600 a month to send his 8-year-old son, Benjiro, to Hoboken Catholic Academy. There, when the boy was late once, he got a warning letter. Every day, he was assigned “tons” of homework, Deguenon recalled.
“I don’t think the public schools would match that rigor,” said Deguenon, whose son is No. 22 on the fourth grade waiting list. “If you’re not born into a rich family, your only salvation is to go to a good school.”
After sitting for more than an hour to learn her daughter was No. 23 on the sixth grade waiting list, Francine Wade resolved to reapply next year.
“I’m going to go back,” she said. “I’m going to try again. I’m going to keep trying.”

Indiana’s Duty to Immediately Report Child Abuse
In Indiana, an individual who has reason to believe that a child is the victim of child abuse or neglect shall make an immediate oral or written report to the Indiana Department of Child Services (“DCS”) or to a local law enforcement agency. Ind. Code § 31-33-5-1, -4. This obligation applies to everyone regardless of whether a person obtains knowledge of the alleged child abuse or neglect in their personal or professional capacity.
Prior to July 1, 2017, if an individual was required to make a report in their capacity as a member of the staff of a medical or other public or private institution, school, facility, or agency, the individual was required to immediately notify the person in charge of the institution, school, facility, or agency, or that person’s designated agent. The person who received the report was then required to immediately report the alleged child abuse or neglect to DCS or law enforcement. Ind. Code § 31-33-5-2 (2016). As of July 1, 2017, a member of the staff of a medical or other public or private institution, school, facility, or agency, is now required to immediately report alleged child abuse or neglect directly to DCS or law enforcement, and then notify the person in charge of the institution, school, facility, or agency, or that person’s designated agent, that the report was made. Ind. Code § 31-33-5-2 (2017). Additionally, an employer cannot implement a policy that would restrict or delay the duty of an employee or individual to make a report. Ind. Code § 31-33-5-5.
The most common types of child abuse or neglect that must be reported are situations where: (1) a child’s physical or mental condition is seriously impaired or seriously endangered as a result of the inability, refusal, or neglect by the child’s parent, guardian, or custodian to supply the child with necessary food, clothing, shelter, medical care, education, or supervision; (2) a child’s physical or mental health is seriously endangered due to injury by the act or omission of the child’s parent, guardian, or custodian; or (3) a child is the victim of a sex offense. Ind. Code § 31-34-1-1-3.
An individual has “reason to believe” that a child is the victim of child abuse or neglect if there is evidence that, if presented to individuals of similar backgrounds and training, would cause the individual to believe that a child was abused or neglected. Ind. Code § 31-9-2-101. A person who makes a report of child abuse or neglect is immune from any civil or criminal liability that might otherwise be imposed because of such actions. Ind. Code § 31-33-6-1. However, a person who knowingly fails to make a report of child abuse or neglect commits a Class B misdemeanor. Ind. Code § 31-33-22-1.
In Smith v. State, 8 N.E.3d 668 (Ind. 2014), the Indiana Supreme Court addressed some of the requirements of reporting child abuse or neglect. In Smith, a high school principal was informed by a 16 year old female student that she had been raped by a 16 year old male student during the lunch hour in a school bathroom. The principal did not report the alleged rape to DCS until 4 hours later. Id. at 670-672. The principal was subsequently convicted of failure to report child abuse. Id. at 673. The Indiana Court of Appeals overturned the conviction, but the Indiana Supreme Court reinstated the trial court’s conviction. Id.
One issue addressed by the Indiana Supreme Court was what “immediately” means in the child abuse reporting statute. The Court ruled that the term “immediately” conveys a required strong sense of urgency in action and primacy of purpose in fulfilling the duty to report child abuse and also agreed with the trial court’s definition which included a requirement that the report be made “without delay; at once; instantly.” Id. at 677.
The Supreme Court ruled that the principal did not report the rape “immediately” because his 4 hour delay included doing intermediary tasks such as interrogating the alleged rapist, ordering a search of the students’ lockers for evidence corroborating the alleged rapist’s defense, declining to contact the police when asked, and most notably, conducting two hours’ worth of unrelated and purely administrative job interviews. Id. 679. The Supreme Court explained that the child abuse reporting law “contemplates that individuals like teachers, school administrators, and hospital workers are often the first ones to become aware of serious problems in a child’s life. The State therefore entrusts those people to be the first lines of defense with respect to our most vulnerable citizens, and it likewise imparts on them a sterner obligation of intervention.” Id. at 678.
The Supreme Court rejected the principal’s defense that the reporting statutes permit a citizen to delay reporting in order to “assess and reflect” before facing criminal liability and professional censure. Id. at 689. The Court held that the statutes do the opposite, that is, they require immediate reporting of suspected child abuse or neglect and immunize from criminal and civil liability those who immediately report conduct that turns out after later assessment and reflection by DCS or law enforcement to have been innocent. Id. It is not the responsibility of the person reporting child abuse or neglect to investigate. Id. at 690.
If confronted with a case of possible child abuse or neglect in your role as a private citizen, a coach, an educator, a medical provider, or in any other capacity, it is critical that a report be made immediately to DCS or law enforcement. A failure to report could lead to a conviction of a Class B misdemeanor which could have a significant effect on your personal and professional life. The phone number for the Indiana Child Abuse Hotline is 1-800-800-5556.
 These changes do not apply to an individual who is a member of the staff of a hospital licensed under Ind. Code § 16-21-2. These individuals continue to report suspected child abuse or neglect to the individual in charge of the hospital or their designated agent, who then must immediately report the allegations to DCS or law enforcement. Ind. Code § 31-33-5-2.5

Formic acid is an important commodity chemical as well as a promising medium for hydrogen storage and hydrogen production. In this paper, we report that formic acid can be produced through selective oxidation of glycerol, a low-cost by-product of biodiesel, by using vanadium-substituted phosphomolybdic acids as catalysts and molecular oxygen as the oxidant. Significantly, this catalytic system allows for high-concentration conversions and thus leads to exceptional efficiency. Specifically, 3.64 g of formic acid was produced from 10 g of glycerol/water (50/50 in weight) solution. © 2014 the Partner Organisations.

Release date: 4 February 2019
School dinners across West Sussex now contain 2.5kg less sugar per child a year than they did just four years ago – and the proof is not just in the pudding.
The latest menu for children to choose from now includes just 5g of sugar a day on average, down 73% on meals served up in 2014 when the average school dinner contained 18.5g of sugar.
West Sussex County Council's Catering Services Team has been working closely with Public Health specialists since the end of 2014 in a targeted effort to reduce the amount of sugar in primary school meals.
The West Sussex Sugar Reduction Programme has been run at no extra cost in collaboration with Chartwells the county council’s main primary school meals provider. In total, the amount of sugar that has been removed from meals over a school year is the equivalent weight of more than five double decker buses.
But crucially, the toughest critics - a team of pupil taste testers - have given the healthier meals the thumbs up, proving that there’s no need to compromise on taste and meal enjoyment when shelving the sugar.
Around 30,000 meals a day are served up in schools right across the county to children from Reception age up to Year 6. This was seen to be a great opportunity to make some small changes to meals that could yield large health gains for West Sussex children.
Menus were re-engineered, new recipes were developed, and portion sizes were revised, allowing changes to be made without compromising on food choices, and crucially maintaining the requirements of the School Food Plan Standards.
The reduction comes as Public Health England release startling new figures showing that children across the country are eating twice as much sugar as they should be.
West Sussex County Council Cabinet Member for Adults and Health, Amanda Jupp, said: “We all know that eating too much sugar can lead to weight gain and related health and dental problems. Ensuring our school dinners are low in sugar is an easy way to make sure our children are getting the right balance they need. For some children, their school dinner is their main meal of the day, so it is vital that it is nutritious.
“I am very proud that we have been able to go the extra mile to ensure our school meals remain nourishing, without compromising on taste.”
Children in England are eating an extra 2,800 sugar cubes a year, that’s more than double the recommended guidelines.
That’s 8 sugar cubes too many each day, 56 too many each week and around 2,800 too many every year. That’s equivalent to 312 cans of sugary cola each year or 469 higher-sugar yoghurts or 562 chocolate bars.
Too much sugar is bad for children’s health as it can lead to the build-up of harmful fat on the inside that we can't see. This fat can cause weight gain and serious diseases like type 2 diabetes, which people are getting younger than ever before, and heart disease and some cancers.
Too much sugar can also cause painful tooth decay and every 10 minutes, a child (in England) has a tooth removed in hospital.
Sugary drinks, confectionery, biscuits, cakes, desserts, higher-sugar breakfast cereals and higher-sugar yoghurts are all contributing to too much sugar in our children’s diets.
How much is too much? The maximum daily amounts of added sugar are:
4-6 years: 5 cubes (19 grams)
7-10 years: – 6 cubes (24 grams)
11+ years: – 7 cubes (30 grams)

An unknown trader made $176 thousand in profit using the SORA token, which was created shortly after the presentation of the artificial intelligence model of the same name by OpenAI. However, the token has nothing to do with the new AI model, writes CoinMarketCap.
According to analysts at Lookonchain, the unnamed trader spent 0.049 ETH ($137) to purchase 16 million SORA tokens. He later sold 12.36 million tokens for 36.57 ETH ($102,492 thousand). In addition, the trader still has 3.64 million tokens worth $74 thousand.
Lookonchain experts point out that in this situation, the trader made a profit that was 1280 times higher than the initial investment. Soon after, the token’s value dropped by almost 20%.
Recently, OpenAI introduced an AI model Sora that can create realistic videos from text prompts. Sora is capable of generating videos up to a minute long, while maintaining visual quality and compliance with user prompts.
Sora can create complex scenes with multiple characters, specific types of movement, and precise object and background details. It also has a deep understanding of language, which allows it to accurately interpret cues and create convincing characters.

A pioneering electrical spinal implant being developed at the University of Alberta could soon change the lives of spinal injury patients by making them walk again.
So far, the device has been shown to be effective in monkey studies, but the researchers hope to make it available for use on human patients with spinal cord injuries in less than a decade.
"We think that the same intraspinal stimulation will cause people to start walking longer and longer, and possibly even faster."says the lead researcher doctor Vivian Mushahwar, of the Neuroscience and Mental Health Institute of the University of Alberta. "There has been an explosion of knowledge in neuroscience over the past 20 years: we are on the eve of an effective link between man and machine."
How the micro implant works to "repair" spinal injuries
The device features hair-like electrical wires that plug deep into the spinal gray matter, sending electrical signals to trigger networks that already know how to do the hard work.
It seems an operating mechanism not far from the one illustrated by Neuralink, the startup of Elon Musk. The latter it also includes the use of a special "sewing" machine to carry out the grafting.
To facilitate work on the implant, the team created a map to identify which parts of the spinal cord activate corresponding parts of the body. The hip, the knees, the ankles, the toes, everything: even the areas that produce the movements.
"People tend to think that the brain does all the thinking, but the spinal cord has its own intelligence," says Mushahwar.
Being able to control standing and walking would improve bone health, bowel and bladder function, and reduce pressure ulcers, the researchers say.
For patients with less severe spinal injuries, an implant could be therapeutic and accelerate rehabilitation. eliminating the need for months of grueling physical therapy regimens which have limited success.
The team will further focus on perfecting the hardware. Miniaturizing the implantable stimulator will get approval from Health Canada and the FDA and then off to human trials.
The first generation of implants will allow a patient to control gait and movement through physical means such as an exoskeleton. In the longer term, the implants could potentially include a direct connection to the brain, they say.

Investment in rural economy to rise as UK sees positive growth
Data from the Rural Economy Index for the first half of 2014 shows more farming and non-agricultural businesses expecting to increase investment in the next 12 months.
For agricultural businesses, optimism is up six percent reaching a net balance of +42 percent - the highest high since the survey started – as the farming sector continues to recover from its dip in 2012. More farming businesses expect to invest further in their businesses – a net balance of +36 percent, up from six percent.
Non-agricultural businesses have also become more positive about business investments, with a net balance of +46 percent expecting higher investment in the next 12 months, again the highest level recorded by the REI.
CLA President Henry Robinson said: “Investment is vital if the rural economy is to continue to grow and recover. It is a major boost that the survey shows investment is expected to rise in both the farming sector and non-farming businesses.”
Dr Jason Beedell, head of research at Smiths Gore said: “Farming businesses continue to recover from a challenging 2012, and the balance now expect sales and profits to be higher in the next year.
“Just under 40 percent of the non-agricultural rural businesses reported higher sales over the past six months and 58 percent expect sales growth next year - fantastic news for the rural economy as a whole.”

Managers post Dundee UnitedSaturday, 10th Sep 2016
10/09/16: AJ - There were a lot of positives there but we need to turn performances like that into results."
- - Listen to this Allan Johnston interview
Dunfermline manager Allan Johnston had lost his voice after losing 3-1 to Dundee United but he did manage a few words.
"I thought the boys were different class today to be honest with you. They were always on the front foot the whole game.
"Their first goal came from our mistake. Sometimes that happens but I thought the boys responded really well.
"The first penalty we got - I was at an SFA meeting a couple of weeks ago and seemingly if it is pushing, pulling or holding it is a sending off. Well he has pushed him and he has booked him so what are the rules?
"The second penalty he (Willo Flood) has brought him down but to be fair it is not a sending off. Then the third one the boys has caught it with his two hands when it was going in the net so is that a sending off? Surely that is a sending off as well.
"I don`t know, maybe the referee deemed that they were not goalscoring opportunities but it certainly looks like it from the video."
The three penalties were taken by three different takers and the manager commented:-
"You know what it is like if you miss a penalty, it is difficult you are expecting somebody to step up and score one of them. We are disappointed but I think the main thing to take out of the game was how much we were on top.
"We have to learn from the mistakes, the second goal was just not good enough. It was really poor defending not matching runners but other than that I cannot really complain. The boys have everything, I thought that it was a really good performance and disappointed not to get the three points."
At 2-1 down Callum Fordyce powered a header off target when it could have got Dunfermline back on level terms bit the manager saw more than that in terms of getting something from this league match.
"Farid (El Alagui) came on and had a couple of opportunities. He is a real threat upfront. I thought Paul McMullan was excellent and caused them all sorts of problems. He had some great passes in behind, beating people as well.
"When you look at the two strikers Nicky Clark and Gavin Reilly they ran them ragged. There were a lot of positives there but we need to turn performances like that into results."

A Canadian-American-Italian jazz connection is about to be make itself seen and heard in Vernon.
One of Canada’s most respected jazz guitarists is bringing The Sicilian Jazz Project to Vernon’s Pottery Road Yoga Studio for an outdoor magical and music-filled evening, June 26.
The group consists of eight-time Juno award nominee Michael Occhipinti, Italian singer Pilar, and American clarinetist Don Byron.
The Sicilian Jazz Project has been dazzling audiences worldwide with its intriguing mix of Sicilian folk with jazz, world music, funk, and chamber music.
Putting an original twist on the music sung by fishermen, miners, and peasants, the group captures old world Sicily set within the modern sounds of the new world.
“Sicily is the land where the musical traditions of Europe, Asia, and North Africa mingled to create something new. Throw in the dramatic lives of pirates and peasants, and transport it all to the new world where jazz, funk, and reggae grooves come together, and the result is the Sicilian Jazz Project,” said Sherrie Erickson, who runs the Pottery Road Yoga studio with husband Neil.
Toronto guitarist/composer Occhipinti has recorded albums in ode to Bruce Cockburn and John Lennon, and has also released critically appraised solo projects. He also leads the Sicilian Jazz Project, formed in 2004, which has been called “a masterpiece of cultural fusion.” The group has released two albums, including 2009’s Juno nominated self-titled album, and a new album, Muorica, which features the riveting Italian singer Pilar and renowned clarinetist Byron.
“Bring your picnic blanket/chair and enjoy an enchanting outdoor evening under the stars with this international jazz ensemble. It doesn’t get better than this,” said Erickson.
The studio is located at 964 Pottery Rd. Gates open at 7 p.m. Music is at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $25, available at the Bean Scene or contact Erickson at email@example.com or call 250-260-0878.

Even though your child’s doctor checked his vision at his last checkup, you’re still wondering whether he might need glasses.
It’s important to find out, says Glen T. Steele, O.D., a professor of pediatric optometry at the Southern College of Optometry in Memphis, USA. “Some kids are tagged as having learning difficulties, or even developmental delays, when all they need are a good pair of glasses,” he says.
So, here’s what you need to know:
Get your child tested
Regular vision exams are the best way to know if your child needs glasses – before problems surface. It is recommended that children get vision screenings before 6 months, between 3 and 4 years, and after age 5. If your doctor suspects a problem, they may refer you to an eye doctor for further testing. Once your child is school-aged, they may also receive a vision screening at school.
“Paediatricians do vision screenings, not comprehensive exams,” says Dr. Steele. “Our position is that many eye conditions are missed in the screenings, which would be picked up by a comprehensive exam.”
Talk to your doctor to find out what’s best for your child.
Know the signs
Parents can play an invaluable role in helping to spot a child’s need for glasses, says Dr. Steele. Signs that your child may need glasses include: Your child squints, frequently loses his place while reading, turns his head to see, rubs his eyes, covers one eye to read, holds reading material very close, sits right up in front of the television or is struggling in school or with homework. Your next step should be to talk to your child’s doctor and see whether your child should see an eye doctor.
Understand the likely problems
Near-sightedness – having difficulty seeing things far away – is the most common need for glasses. A common tip-off: squinting. Ask your child if he can see what’s on the chalkboard at school, see friends or relatives clearly across a room, or read billboards on the highway. Squinting may also signal astigmatism – an imperfect shape of the cornea that causes blurred vision, and often occurs with near-sightedness.
And the less common ones
Far-sightedness – which affects the ability to see things up close – is less common and easy to miss since kids may pass an eye test because they can read the chart. Watch for a child having trouble writing or reading up close. Another need for glasses is a big difference in visual acuity – for example a child with 20/20 vision in the right eye and 20/200 in the left. While an eye test can diagnose the problem, it can also be easy to miss if a child is able to see well enough out of one eye.
If your child needs glasses, make sure to follow up and be sure that your child is actually wearing them. Fewer than half the kids who need glasses are wearing them, says Dr. Steele. If you’re worried about cost, check with your insurance company or doctor’s office.

Patent plaintiffs once considered the U.S. District court in the Eastern District of Texas one of the more favorable forums for winning damages—see, e.g., the recent $200 million jury award in i4i Ltd. Partnership v. Microsoft Corp, 2009 WL 2449024 (2009) (as digested in BVLaw). But perhaps no longer: A new case may signal a much stricter damages standard among federal circuit courts and an increased need for plaintiffs to provide more detailed (and more expensive) expert evidence concerning customer use and demand for patented products.
The case is IP Innovation LLC v. Red Hat, Inc., 2010 WL 986620 (E.D. Tex.)(March 2, 2010), and in another turn of events, Judge Rader from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit was brought in to preside over the Texas proceedings. The plaintiffs claimed their patented workspace switching feature was sold in the defendant’s operating systems, and after applying the “entire market value rule,” their expert included 100% of the defendant’s sales in calculating reasonable royalty damages. His methodology failed to consider, however, that the patented item was but one of a thousand components in the accused products, and evidence showed users did not consider the patented feature essential. Further, the majority of the defendants’ revenues came from sales of servers—which didn’t even include the patented item. In sum, these “stunning methodological oversight[s]” prevented the court from giving the expert any credibility, and it dismissed his evidence under Rule 702 and Daubert.
Next time, use KtMine. The court also discredited the expert for failing to use existing licensing agreements in his reasonable royalty calculations (relying instead on broad, non-comparable industry studies). Perhaps the expert would have fared better by looking at ktMINE™, the only interactive IP database that provides direct access to royalty rates, source licensing agreements, and detailed agreement summaries. For more information on ktMINE’s direct access to royalty rates, source licensing agreements, and detailed agreement summaries from over 13,000 public royalty rate, licensing, and lump sum agreements—contact Randy Cochran.

The business world does not operate in a vacuum, it is affected by the world around it and, in turn, impacts the world as well. In recent years, the impact of business on the environment has been much talked about, especially in light of companies like Eucatex that have proven an important fact – businesses do not have to give up on financial profits to be sensitive towards the environment. When it comes to sustainable development, the general assumption is that it is only for the big companies with enough resources at their disposal. This is not true because even the smallest companies can make an impact. Here are some long term benefits of sustainable development for companies –
Satisfaction For Companies and Workforce – Given the awareness related to the environment in recent years, the world has become a lot more sensitive towards these issues. People don’t want to support industries that are harming the ecological balance of the world and even something as simple as a bar of soap is expected to be green these days. As such, it is satisfying for employees and companies when they are a part of something like Eucatex where they get a chance to give back to the environment.
Financial Benefits In Terms of Rebates and Savings – Of course, the government actively encourages people and companies who are ecologically conscious. This means various tax rebates which would especially be beneficial to small companies with limited resources. It also means long term savings of resources by the company because of elimination of wastage and innovative conservation strategies. These financial benefits would also translate in terms of goodwill for the company.
A Better Standard For Industries – Ultimately, when even small companies make the effort and embrace sustainable development, it would send a loud and clear message to the industry at large. It would lead to better standards for sustainable development all over the world because of this reason. Not just that, industries big and small, old and new, from different parts of the nation would come together and pool their resources to help the environment.
Eucatex belongs to the Eucatex group and like every other group of companies, LinkedIn told the Maluf family started the business from scratch. They persevered to bring the world something that would not only provide value but would also be eco-friendly; and the result was astounding. Flavio Maluf, in particular, has been a huge supporter of other businesses doing their bit for the environment. This is particularly important because currently, the global warming is no longer just a concept.

But that’s not poetry. The OED informs us that satire’s etymology is uncertain. One idea was to connect, via the root that gives us “saturate,” to the Latin expression lanx satura, or “full dish,” i.e. a miscellany of prose and verse. Another theory is that the word is of Etruscan origin, with obscure significance.

Holding a party can be extremely exciting and very stressful. Once you have sorted out the date and the venue there is still the need to figure out what food to serve and how much of it. Now most of us aren’t budding chefs and so the sensible thing to do is look for someone to sort this element out for us. http://www.freshandlush.co.uk are a good example of Caterers Shropshire who can take on this task for you.
But let’s take a look at one of the best scenes from Disney’s Beauty and the Beast where most of us wish we could ‘be their guest.’
The whole thing seems at first like a fevered dream. Perhaps Belle is hallucinating it all. But no, as the Yves Montandesque candlestick Lumiere tells us “No ones gloomy or complaining when the flatware’s entertaining”. True, but they may be a bit concerned regarding their mental state as the plate starts pirouetting with the cutlery and several bier hall steins begin a Bavarian folk song revival. Belle seems to have the mental constitution of an Ox and she takes this all in her stride. To be fair she has been through enforced imprisonment and made a deal to live with a weird looking horned lion man for the rest of her life already in the film by that point so a bunch of domestic implements becoming sentient shouldn’t really be much of a stretch. As we can see below in the picture she obviously decides that she might as well go along with the madness and begins joining in with a little routine of her own
The crazed candlestick proceeds to wind up the others and this serves as a good way to introduce the other characters. Mrs Potts fills a cup of tea and points out that the staff are finally very busy. Belle seems hesitant to drink from the cup of tea proffered to her. Perhaps that’s because the cup will actually ask her how the tea tastes and if she’s enjoying it. You start to realise these are a needy bunch who seem bent on getting recognition for their efforts. Lumiere also points out that they’ve been stuck like this for 10 years. Being a corkscrew must take its toll on you and it seems a bit unfair that the witch decided to bewitch the catering and domestic staff when she hexed the Beast. What had they done exactly? They hadn’t turned her away. It seems a bit unfair to curse them too. How did the Witch think this was going to help the situation?
You also have to feel sorry for Cogsworth. He is trying to maintain order in this chaos and no one is listening to him. Finally, a chandelier is lowered for no clear reason and the song reaches a crescendo that has even Cogsworth joining in only to be smashed out the way by Lumiere so that he steals the big finale.

- Drinking Ensure during pregnancy will support your body’s entire nutritional needs and the development of your unborn child.
- Pregnant women who drink Ensure may experience less vomiting.
- A healthy diet and the use of Ensure go hand in hand.
It goes without saying that pregnant women require more food than usual, but most women find eating well during pregnancy difficult.
During your pregnancy, you will require an extra 330 calories each day. It can be difficult to understand how to sustain a healthy pregnancy by eating enough calories in a balanced diet.
For patients who struggle to consume enough food throughout the day, the brand Ensure has long been utilized in medical settings.
Due to the numerous pregnancy difficulties, eating can be challenging for many pregnant women. It’s nearly impossible to desire to eat anything when you’re unwell, not to mention suppress it.
When eating is a challenge, how are you to achieve your dietary requirements to ensure a healthy pregnancy?
Some frequent morning sickness symptoms may be lessened by consuming Ensure at various times during the day.
Ensure drinks contain a lot of protein and protein lowers morning sickness during pregnancy, according to research.
Your stomach will get constricted throughout pregnancy as the baby becomes bigger.
After eating, this reduction in space may leave you feeling uneasy and may cause nutritional deficiencies.

How does Ensure help with morning sickness during pregnancy?
Many pregnant women become food intolerant due to morning sickness and nausea.
Drinking an Ensure can be a terrific safety net and maintain your nutrition if you vomit after eating, find it difficult to swallow solid foods, or are so sick of food that nothing tastes good.
When feeling queasy or if the scent of food makes you uncomfortable, sipping on the shake is frequently simpler than sitting down to a complete meal.

Tips to keep in mind before drinking Ensure during pregnancy.

- Ensure is not meant to replace regular meals and can not be used to aid in weight loss for expectant mothers.
- The increased nutritional needs of pregnancy can be met by drinking Ensure in addition to a healthy diet. Ensure offers a great food choice if morning sickness prevents you from eating.

- It’s best to restrict your intake of Ensure based on how much vitamin A you obtain from other sources such as prenatal supplements because it does contain a modest amount of the vitamin.
- Consult your doctor before considering taking them as a supplement more than once per day.
What Benefits Can Your Body Get from Ensure Products?
All of the drinks that Ensure produces are intended to make up for any nutritional deficiencies that may arise from a person’s diet.
The gaps may occur for a variety of reasons, including illness, food intolerance, and other conditions.

- 4 grams of Fiber Blend with prebiotic fiber for digestive wellness.
- Calcium and vitamin D for healthy bones.
Can Ensure Products Help You Shed Pounds After Giving Birth?

Although, it can be used in a diet that restricts calories in order to lose weight. This is feasible as long as your daily caloric intake is within the suggested range for weight loss.
How much Ensure can I drink a day during pregnancy?

Below are some of the recommendations made by Ensure:
- Three cups per day of Ensure High Protein
- 1-2 cups of Ensure Max Protein per day

At 10:40 this morning, we hear the last of the 6-Part series with Andy Bromberger – Atonalism, Alienation and Appeasement – and in the concluding episode Andy discusses music from the 1970s.
On 15 June 1215, Magna Carta was signed at Runnymede and since then it has been regarded as the cornerstone of democracy. In 2015, to mark the 800th anniversary, I recorded a conversation with historian and lawyer, Geoff Holland, and we’ll hear this fascinating story again at 11:00 am to mark the anniversary this Friday.
Music is a mixture of King John related tracks and music since the 70s.

A key feature of the EBV40A is the integrated flux monitor. Evaporant flux is indirectly monitored via the measured ion current, providing accurate flux adjustment and faster deposition rate control. The ion collector is contained within the beam exit column. At a given electron emission current and beam energy, the measured ion flux measured is directly proportional to the flux of evaporated atoms. The EBV40A-PS is equipped with built-in PID controller which stabilizes evaporant flux at the desired level. The unit can be operated in AUTO mode (with ion flux control) or MANUAL mode (without ion flux control). The EBV40A-PS can be supplied as a full width 19″ rack mounting unit (3U height) or free standing. The unit can be remotely controlled via one of the available interfaces.
