Гійом-Габріель Нівер (, приблизно 1632, Париж — 30 листопада 1714, Париж) — французький композитор та органіст.

Біографія
Будучи учнем Жака де Шамбоньєра, він став відомим органістом. У 1654 став титулярним органістом у церкві Сен-Сюльпіс, де протримався до 1714 року.

21 вересня 1668 року одружився на Анні Ено. 19 червня він призначається на один із чотирьох постів органіста у Королівській каплиці (разом із Ніколя Лєбеґом, Жаком Томеленом та Жаном-Баптістом Бютерном) за особистим вибором Людовика XIV.

У 1681 році він став також королівським вчителем музики замість Анрі дю Мона. Він отримує ще в 1686 році пост у Королівському Домі Святого Луї у Сен-Сір (релігійний заклад навчання благородних дівчат) як клавесиніст драматичних спектаклів. У 1708 році покидає пост у Королівській каплиці (замість нього займає цей пост Луї Маршан).

Після своєї смерті, Нівер залишає землю і статки, що оцінюються у 200000 фунтів, що свідчить про його успіх.

Твори

Для органу
Нівер видав три книги для органу, у елегантному та акуратному гравіюванні,  де містилось більше як 200 п'єс, серед яких органна сюїта у всіх церковних тональностях, месу, гімни, Deo Gratias і Te Deum.
 Органна книга, що містить сто п'єс у всіх церковних тональностях (1665).
 Друга органна книга містить месу і церковні гімни (1667).
 Третя органна книга у восьми церковних тональностях (1675). 8 сюїт.
Ці органні книги перші, що були опубліковані після Жана Тітлуза.

Вокальні твори
 Мотети для голосу соло [...] та деякі інші мотети для двох голосів, властиві для Релігійних (1689)
 Різні твори для двору Сен-Сіру:
Cantique sur la conformité à la volonté de Dieu
Chants de Jephté
Le Temple de la paix
Opéra de la vertu
Opéra de sceaux

Трактати і методи
Нівер також залишив важливі теоретичні роботи, які є цінним джерелом для ознайомлення із музичною практикою тієї епохи:
 L'Art d'Accompagner sur la Basse Continue
 Méthode facile pour apprendre à chanter
 Observations sur le toucher et jeu de l'Orgue (dans la préface du Livre d'Orgue de 1665)
 Traité de la Composition de Musique (1667)
 Dissertation sur le chant grégorien (1683)

Relief, NeuroRx and Quantum Leap announce the inclusion of ZYESAMI™ (RLF-100™: aviptadil) in the I-SPY COVID-19 Trial
Geneva, Switzerland and Radnor, Pa, USA, January 11, 2021 – RELIEF THERAPEUTICS Holding AG (SIX: RLF, OTCQB: RLFTF) ("Relief" or the "Company"), NeuroRx, Inc. and the Quantum Leap Healthcare Collaborative ("Quantum Leap") of San Francisco announce that NeuroRx and QLHC have signed a Clinical Trial Participation Agreement for the inclusion of ZYESAMI™ (RLF-100TM: aviptadil) in the I-SPY COVID-19 Clinical Trial. Quantum Leap is the sponsor of the I-SPY COVID-19 Trial, a platform trial that is assessing multiple drugs for the treatment of patients with Critical COVID-19 who are hospitalized or in intensive care units. ZYESAMI™ will be included as one of the first drugs targeting Respiratory Failure in critically ill COVID-19 patients.
The inclusion of ZYESAMI™ in the I-SPY COVID-19 Trial follows a request from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the Department of Defense for investigational drugs capable of targeting the most acutely ill patients with COVID-19. ZYESAMI™ has been granted Fast Track designation by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of Critical COVID-19 in patients with Respiratory Failure.
In December 2020, Dr. Robert Kadlec, HHS Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response, issued a public statement that "Through our Operation Warp Speed partnership, we have worked feverishly with private industry to develop and make treatments available to reduce hospitalization, either shortening the length of stay or treating people with mild or moderate COVID-19 infections before they have to be hospitalized. While we're making significant progress, treatments to save lives of the sickest patients, such as patients in intensive care or on ventilators, remain an urgent need."
I-SPY is a platform clinical trial that uses a similar protocol as a traditional clinical trial, but that compares multiple investigational agents combined with a "backbone" of the standard of care. The trial is designed to rapidly identify those agents that have a large impact on reducing disease severity, including reduced mortality, reducing or avoiding time on ventilation and other longer-term comorbidities. Patients receive one of several products being studied and the results then are compared to the current standard of care.
"We are excited to be collaborating with NeuroRx, an innovative company developing agents that have the potential to significantly impact the time to recovery and mortality in these severely ill COVID-19 patients," states Dr. Laura Esserman, one of the lead investigators of the I-SPY COVID-19 Trial. "Our adaptive platform trial setting is the ideal type of study to follow a trial that has findings suggesting agent effectiveness. We have the ability to independently verify impact, as well as test different modes of delivery in a pandemic timeframe."
"We at NeuroRx, together with our partners at Relief, are honored to have been selected by Quantum Leap for inclusion in the I-SPY trials platform. This will enable us to gather data on the use of inhaled aviptadil in the treatment of Critical COVID-19, as a complement to data on the use of intravenous aviptadil in the phase 2b/3 trial we are just concluding. We also hope to demonstrate in a second phase 2b/3 trial that aviptadil can be given in a more convenient mode of administration and show benefit in patients who are able to self-administer inhaled medications," said Jonathan C. Javitt, MD, MPH, CEO and Chairman of NeuroRx.
About ZYESAMI™ (previously RLF-100™: aviptadil)
ZYESAMI™ (RLF-100™: aviptadil) is a formulation of Vasoactive Intestinal Polypeptide (VIP) that was developed based on Prof. Sami Said's original work at Stony Brook University, for which Stony Brook was awarded an FDA Orphan Drug Designation in 2001. VIP is known to be highly concentrated in the lungs, where it inhibits coronavirus replication, blocks the formation of inflammatory cytokines, prevents cell death, and upregulates the production of surfactant. FDA has granted IND authorization for intravenous and inhaled delivery of aviptadil for the treatment of COVID-19 and awarded Fast Track designation. ZYESAMI™ is being investigated in two placebo-controlled US phase 2b/3 clinical trials in respiratory deficiency due to COVID-19. Since July 2020, more than 300 patients with Critical COVID-19 and Respiratory Failure have been treated with RLF-100™ between the two FDA-cleared protocols (randomized and expanded access). Information on the RLF-100™ Expanded Access Program can be found at https://www.neurorxpharma.com/our-services/rlf-100.
Relief focuses primarily on clinical-stage programs based on molecules of natural origin (peptides and proteins) with a history of clinical testing and use in human patients or a strong scientific rationale. Currently, Relief is concentrating its efforts on developing new treatments for respiratory disease indications. Its lead drug candidate RLF-100TM (aviptadil) is being investigated in two placebo-controlled U.S. phase 2b/3 clinical trials in respiratory deficiency due to COVID-19. Relief also holds a patent issued in the United States and various other countries covering potential formulations of RLF-100TM.
RELIEF THERAPEUTICS Holding AG is listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange under the symbol RLF and quoted in the U.S. on OTCQB under the symbol RLFTF.

VoIP Calls – How It Became Popular in South Africa
Not so long ago, Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) calls had a reputation for poor call quality. Advances in network infrastructure and new technologies have helped it evolve to the point where it is surpassing traditional calling.
The quality of VoIP calls is also expected to improve further as 5G becomes more accessible in South Africa.
According to Nic Laschinger, Chief Technology Officer of Euphoria Telecom, the quality of VoIP calls has improved significantly over the past decade, from a point where it was associated with poor quality to surpassing traditional calls.
"Voice call quality over VoIP and mobile calling in South Africa has progressed to the point where digital calling has vastly outpaced analogue channels in both the commercial and residential markets," said Laschinger.
"Today we don't think of anything about making a WhatsApp voice call, something that even just a few years ago would have been buggy and frustrating, for example."
Laschinger attributes the improvements to better technologies, faster speeds, and lower network latency.
"A combination of all of these resulted in better voice call quality," he said. "For the most part, this is attributable to the best connectivity available in the broadband landscape."
Laschinger explained that call quality on Wi-Fi networks is expected to improve further as 5G becomes more accessible in the country.
"A higher and better quality bandwidth has resulted in better call quality even on WiFi networks. This improvement will continue as 5G deployments accelerate and fiber completely outperforms its older copper competitors, "he said.
He explained that VoIP phone providers put a lot of time and development effort into their systems to provide better call quality, which is primarily affected by bandwidth.
Laschinger added that Euphoria Telecom recommends specific minimum speeds to its customers to ensure a quality experience.
Nic Laschinger, Chief Technology Officer of Euphoria Telecom
"This is affected by bandwidth and as a result we recommend certain minimum bandwidth speeds, but to the extent possible, we ensure that our systems deliver a quality experience across the board," he said.
Andrew King, Head of Voice, Visual Communications and Gaming at Vox Telecom, told MyBroadband that the improvement in voice quality over the years could be attributed to advances in two aspects of delivering quality VoIP services: last-mile connectivity and operator's network infrastructure.
"A few years ago, last-mile connectivity options were limited and link speeds were insufficient to carry voice reliably," said King.
"A quality VoIP last mile experience depends on minimizing packet loss, jitter and latency."
King explained that the exponential growth in fiber availability in South Africa has helped solve these problems.
He also said Vox customers could prioritize voice traffic over less time-dependent Internet traffic with voice-specific quality of service (QoS) configurations available on carrier-grade routers.
"Vox has developed proprietary last-mile QoS configurations in both fiber for home and fiber for the business to prioritize and secure real-time voice and other traffic, such as video calling," said King.
"This QoS ensures that people on person-to-person and group calls enjoy professional voice and video quality, regardless of other traffic traversing the home or business network."
He explained that while last mile connectivity is key, a stable voice network is also needed to provide reliable voice services.
"Core networks that are designed with a conservative approach to capacity planning and that are redundant in both routing and power supply typically provide a quality backbone on which to deliver reliable voice service," he said.
"With QoS technologies implemented within the voice network, our customer traffic takes priority over all of our local, national and international networks."

2017 May June
A healthy population is essential for countries to thrive on the global stage. Healthcare has never been more important. Diplomat magazine has produced this Healthcare Report in partnership with the Harley Street Medical Area, which has long been home to some of the great pioneers in medicine. In this report, Diplomat meets with leaders in certain complex fields of medicine, hearing about some of the most exciting innovations, which are sure to change the future of healthcare.
Diplomat magazine has been working with the Harley Street Medical Area on a series of events highlighting the important work they do. For example, creator of the 'Bionic Eye,' Professor Lyndon da Cruz, spoke at our event in February. Our next breakfast event on Friday 23rd June covers the topic 'Next Generation Healthcare.' We have two impressive speakers talking on 'Innovations in Fertility' and 'Dementia in Older Adults; and the Autism Spectrum in Children/ADHD in Adolescents and Younger Adults.' Whether you are a healthcare or science attaché, Head of Mission or diplomat with a personal interest in medicine, you are all welcome.
It has been a busy month for Diplomat – we hosted the Tata Diplomat of the Year Awards at Jumeirah Carlton Tower. Congratulations to all our winners! But more about that in the next issue. The event was hosted by Diplomat's newest contributor, BBC Diplomatic Correspondent, James Landale. He's written an honest account of how as a diplomat, there are few places better than London to be posted right now! He says governments need their eyes and ears more open on the streets of London than ever before.
But as you all know, diplomacy is not all about hard politics. The Cyprus High Commissioner says that music can act as a "common language, an agent of solidarity, peace, tolerance and exchange, which can unite peoples of every
origin, language and religion." The same can be said of literature. Ambassador of Senegal, also one of the world's leading academics on Shakespeare, provides Diplomat with a contribution inspired by his visit to the opening of Shakespeare's Place, a beautiful new garden located on the site of The Bard's home when he died. As the Cyprus High Commissioner said, these 'soft' diplomatic tools, "are very much needed in our troubled and dangerous world."
As always, Diplomat reviews the Credentials of new heads of mission to the Court of St James's, this month meeting the Ambassadors of the Philippines, Swaziland and Sweden, along with the High Commissioner for the Seychelles.
In the lifestyle section, Diplomat enjoys an overnight stay in Belgravia institution COMO The Halkin, and exquisite Spanish tapas at Barrafina Drury Lane. Readers with a taste for culture will find valuable advice in our book and arts reviews, including the moving exhibition by Carmignac Photojournalism Award winner, Narciso Contreras, on his experiences of human trafficking in Libya.
Finally, I always want to hear from you, our readers, on article suggestions, new appointments, local news and other embassy events that you would like covered. Please contact me on

Micaceous clay bowl by Bernadette Track of Taos Pueblo. Large, hand-coiled, traditionally pit fired mica-rich clay pottery with horsehair lines burned onto the surface.
Approx: 6.25" high x 15" diameter.
Bernadette Track's training centered on theater and dance, but, like her mother and grandmother before her, the pull of clay has been strong. Her pottery imparts a lesson in persistent striving, curiosity and artistic devotion. Bernadette's life is filled with love and respect for nature and humanity. Her Native American culture incorporates the rhythms of Earth, Sun and Life. "Pottery is my art. I'm simply giving back what Mother Nature wants," says Bernadette.
In 1969 Bernadette received a scholarship to Julliard School of Dance in New York City where she studied dance. She stayed in New York through the early 1970s. She also holds a BA in University Studies. When she came back to Taos Pueblo, she elected to live in the traditional part of the pueblo that has no electricity, and the source of water is the river. For years, Bernadette modeled for R.C. Gorman, the famous Taos artist. She also had a children's theatre for some time.
In 1980 she began making pottery. A well-known local potter and Bernadette's friend, Mary Witkop, took her to her first clay pit — Bernadette fell in love with clay.
She uses traditional pit firing and hand coiling methods. The firing process tones the micaceous clay with a 'cloud' of black and grey that colors. Today, Bernadette is one of the most accomplished potters of Taos Pueblo.

- What does `numbers.insert(2,9)` make the list `numbers` look like? `[0,1,9,2,3,4]`

For the following questions assume `names = ['Alex', 'Mia', 'John', 'Laura', 'Joyce']`

- What does `names.pop()` *return* and what does the list `names` become? It returns `'Joyce'` and `names` becomes `['Alex', 'Mia', 'John', 'Laura']`
- What does `names.remove('mia')` *return* and what does the list `names` become? It returns `None` and `names` becomes `['Alex', 'John', 'Laura', 'Joyce']`

For the following questions assume `person = {'name':'Alex', 'age':27, 'height':158}`

- How would you change the value associated with the key `'name'` from 'Alex' to 'John'? `person['name'] = 'John'`
- How would you add the key-value pair `{'graduate':True}` to the dictionary `person`? `person['graduate'] = True`
- What would `list(person.keys())` look like? `['name', 'age', 'height']`

## Data analysis

For the following list:
```py
# Copy and paste into your script
temperatures = [12,35,32,13,6,-23,-5,35,-42,-24,45,23,-64,8,2,-4]
```

- Calculate the length of the list `temperatures`
- Calculate the sum of all temperatures
- Find the maximum temperature
- Find the minimum temperature
- Calculate the mean temperature (mean = sum of temperatures divided by the number of temperature measurements)

*HINT:* The `for` loop is very useful when dealing with lists. Below is an example of using a `for` loop to determine the longest name in a list of names.

__ANS:__

Calculate the length of the list `temperatures`
```py
len(temperatures)
```

Calculate the sum of all temperatures
```py
sum_temperatures = 0
for temperature in temperatures:
	sum_temperatures = sum_temperatures + temperature

# using python's built in function
sum(temperatures)
```

Find the maximum temperature
```py
max_temp = -273 # minimum possible temperature
for temperature in temperatures:
	if temperature > max_temp:
		max_temp = temperature

# using python's built in function
max(temperatures)
```

Find the minimum temperature
```py
min_temp = 100 # maximum possible temperature
for temperature in temperatures:
	if temperature < min_temp:
		min_temp = temperature

# using python's built in function
min(temperatures)
```

Calculate the mean temperature (mean = sum of temperatures divided by the number of temperature measurements)
```py
sum_temperatures = 0
for temperature in temperatures:
	sum_temperatures = sum_temperatures + temperature

num_temperatures = len(temperatures)
avg_temperature = sum_temperatures / num_temperatures

# using python's built in function
avg_temperature = sum(temperatures) / len(temperatures)
```

## Square map

Write a function called `square_map` that takes in a list of numbers (integers or floats) and returns a list of the same length only each element has been squared.

Sample input/output:
```
>>> numbers = [1,2,3,5]
>>> square_map(numbers)
[1, 4, 9, 25]
```

__ANS:__

```py
def square_map(numbers):
	# create another list so we don't mutate the numbers list passed to the function
	squared_numbers = []
	for number in numbers:
		squared_numbers.append(number * number)
	return squared_numbers
```

## Append Check

Write a function called `my_append` that adds an element to a list provided that element is not already in the list. Remember that lists are passed by reference! The example below shows that the `my_append` function does not actually return anything, it 'mutates' (edits) the `animals` list.

Sample input/output:
```
>>> animals = ['cat', 'dog', 'elephant', 'pig']
>>> my_append(animals, 'dog')
>>> print(animals)
['cat', 'dog', 'elephant', 'pig']
>>> my_append(animals, 'zebra')
>>> print(animals)
['cat', 'dog', 'elephant', 'pig', 'zebra']
```

*NOTE:* Try not to mutate lists with functions in the future. We are just trying to show you how lists work with functions.

__ANS:__

```py
def my_append(generic_list, value_to_append):
	if value_to_append not in generic_list:
		generic_list.append(value_to_append)
	# no need to return anything, we have mutated the list passed to the function
```

## Pretty Print

The output of the inbuilt python `print` function doesn't look very good when printing a dictionary. Let's right a function called `pprint` to make the output look nicer.

```py
def pprint(aDict):
	# write your code inside this function
```

Sample input/output:
```
>>> person = {'name':'Alex', 'age':27, 'height':158}
>>> pprint(person)
{
	name:	Alex
	age:	27
	height:	158
}
```

*HINT:* Use the `person.items()` method and a for loop.

__ANS:__

```py
def pprint(dictionary, spacing_width = 10):
	print('{')
	for key, value in dictionary.items():
		spacing = ' ' * (spacing_width - len(key))
		print(spacing + key + ': ' + str(value))
	print('}')

# python has some really great inbuilt methods for printing strings
# below is a second implementation using string justification

def pprint(dictionary, spacing_width = 10):
	print('{')
	for key, value in dictionary.items():
		print(key.rjust(spacing_width) + ': ' + str(value))
	print('}')
```

## Into the wild

Instead of going to work tomorrow you decide to go on an adventure. You have a number of items that you would like to take. However, you can only carry 7kg. Your job is to pack you bag with as many items as you can while ensuring that the weight of the backpack does not exceed 7kg. It is best to repesent the backpack as a dictionary:

```
>>> print(backpack)
{
	items:	['toothbrush', 'sandwhich', 'bon soy','book on python' ]
	weight:	2.750
}
```

Note this is not an optimisation problem. Put what ever you want in the backpack. Just make sure it is weighs less than 7kg.

Below is a list of your items that you could possibly take where each item is represented as a dictionary:

```py
# copy and paste into your code if you like.
items = [
	{'name': 'tooth brush', 'weight': 0.050},
	{'name': 'sandwhich', 'weight': 0.100},
	{'name': 'iPod', 'weight': 0.250},
	{'name': 'tomahawk', 'weight': 2.000},
	{'name': 'bon soy', 'weight': 1.000},
	{'name': 'sling shot', 'weight': 0.800},
	{'name': 'book on python', 'weight': 1.600},
	{'name': 'water', 'weight': 1.800},
	{'name': 'tissues',  'weight': 0.150},
	{'name': 'first aid kit', 'weight': 0.750},
	{'name': 'flint', 'weight': 1.075},
	{'name': 'magnifying glass', 'weight': 0.450}
]
```

*BONUS:* What is the best selection of items to maximise the number of items while keeping the weight below 7kg (i.e. make it an optimisation problem)?

__ANS:__

```py

items = [
	{'name': 'tooth brush', 'weight': 0.050},
	{'name': 'sandwhich', 'weight': 0.100},
	{'name': 'iPod', 'weight': 0.250},
	{'name': 'tomahawk', 'weight': 2.000},
	{'name': 'bon soy', 'weight': 1.000},
	{'name': 'sling shot', 'weight': 0.800},
	{'name': 'book on python', 'weight': 1.600},
	{'name': 'water', 'weight': 1.800},
	{'name': 'tissues',  'weight': 0.150},
	{'name': 'first aid kit', 'weight': 0.750},
	{'name': 'flint', 'weight': 1.075},
	{'name': 'magnifying glass', 'weight': 0.450}
]

# set up an empty bag
backpack = {
	'items': [],
	'weight': 0
}

weight_limit = 7

for item in items:
	# check if the item fits in the backpack
	if item['weight']+backpack['weight'] < weight_limit:
		backpack['items'].append(item) # add item to backpack
		backpack['weight'] += item['weight'] # update the weight of the backpack

```

TORONTO, ON, August 30, 2018 – Students of all ages are getting ready for their first week back in class and for some, there may be mixed emotions or even back-to-school anxiety. In fact, according to 2017 statistics, one third of parents say their children have missed school due to issues related to anxiety and one quarter have missed days at work themselves to care for their children who were experiencing issues. Moreover, York research shows that at least 3 in 10 adolescents have some form of maladaptive perfectionism which is consistently linked with distress, especially anxiety.
As a pediatric pain researcher, Pillai Riddell has been leading a multi-million-dollar program of research in better understanding children's pain, fear and anxiety for over 20 years. She is also a health and clinical psychologist registered to treat children, adolescents, and adults.
Flett holds a Canada Research Chair in Personality and Health. His past research on perfectionism and its consequences has established that the perfectionism construct is complex and multi-faceted and associated with numerous costs and consequences.


Been after a Kuga for a while and having 2 dogs... gave me the perfect excuse to change.
5 months in and I love it's practicality.
Only just getting used to it's electric handbrake, still occasionally miss the good old fashioned lever.
One useless feature it has and I never use self parking!!! More hindrance than help.
Your reason for car change is the same as mine... we have a 9st Dogue de Bordeaux and it's just about fits in the back seats of my Mrs Juke Nismo and I'd had enough of her choice of car and purely driving it was like sitting in a kennel so I've put my foot down and ordered the 2019 Kuga ST line edition 2.0 AWD auto in metallic grey which should be delivered in 2-3 weeks🤞🏻. Best looking suv on the market today in my opinion.
Your photo of your dogs in the car have been excellent because I now know that my big dopey lump will definitely fit in back of the Kuga with room to spare.
We have 2x Black Labradors & they fit fine in my Kuga,Your Kuga looks great in Chrome blue !
So much easier with no boot lip, jump in and out with minimal fuss now.
Looking at swapping into the st line edition myself. Only thing I'm not geen on is the black mirror caps! Might ask if I can swap them out with my current ones if I change.

For years, Thunderkick has been known for its unique games that come second to none. Flame Busters game is not an exception. To ensure you have the best of times playing this title, there are several features you will come across. Our Flame Busters slot overview describes the main features of the free pokie machine that make it stand out such as:
Fire Symbol – The fire symbol is considered the mystery symbol of this game. When it appears on your screen, any other symbol can replace it with an exception of the scatter and Wild.
Wild Symbol – It is a simple symbol with the letter "W". It works just like the other Wilds because it will substitute for all the other game symbols but not the scatter.
Alarm Bell Scatter Symbol – The scatter is one of the most important symbols to encounter as you play Flame Busters slot free. This is because when you land on 3 or more scatters, you will immediately trigger an exciting bonus game. The move will award you with different free spins depending on the number of scatters you trigger as shown below:
3 scatters earn you 10 free spins
4 scatters will give you 15 free spins
5 scatters reward 20 free spins
Fire Drill – You can trigger this feature in the base game. It will bring you a lot of joy because it has the power to convert 1-5 low win symbols into fire symbols that will earn you more.
Bonus Game – Free online Flame Busters also present a bonus game to gamers. The bonus game that features free spins allows you to collect scatter symbols that will allow you to advance upwards while participating in the bonus game building. You instantly unlock a new floor once you collect 3 scatter symbols. Doing this also allows you to enjoy 2 additional spins at no cost.
Coin Ignition – After unlocking a floor in the bonus game, the lowest valued coin will transform into a fire symbol for the entire bonus round. Keep in mind that when coins become fire symbols, they cannot act as fire symbol replacements.
This online pokie presents a total of 13 symbols. There are 2 sets of symbols in this game some that pay more and Mario Brothers style coins that are low-value symbols. These pay different rewards when you manage to align 3 or more identical symbols. Here are the paytable information details you need to know how much to expect after achieving a winning combo.

One look at this game and you will instantly know that it has a fire-fighting theme as this has been brought out well by the entire design of the game. The setting is a building on fire with firefighters at each side trying to "bust" the flames. It boasts of an 8-bit style design where windows represent the reel positions in the brick building. The windows display all the characters of the game as the reels spin. The free Flame Busters slot looks like a Nintendo game and the graphics will remind you of the Mario Brothers game. The graphics have been scaled down where they have a pixelated look that works well for the theme of the game. Playing the game you will find it hard to believe that it was not created in the 90s when retro video games were super popular.
The sounds of this game are something to write home about. As you play Flame Busters free slot game, you will discover that the sounds fit in perfectly with the theme of the game. The sounds of the game change when you hit a winning combo or when you trigger a bonus feature raising the tempo of the game. If for some reason, you do not want to play the game with the sound on, there is no need to worry because you can always switch off the sound using the sound icon at the bottom of the game.

Some of the options you may have when looking for fiery actions include Inferno, Heart of Earth, Stunning Hot, Hot to Burn, and Fireman Slot.

The only difference is that you will be playing on a smaller screen. You can also choose whether to play the game for fun or invest some cash that you will use to place real money wagers. Because it does not require any downloading to play, you do not have to worry about space on your device.
As you engage in Flame Busters free play or the paid version, it is important to know that the RTP of the slot is 96.1 %. This makes it a medium variance game. The volatility of the game implies that you can land on some big and small wins frequently. With this in mind, you can come up with a solid slot strategy that can see you increase your odds of recording more wins than losses.

The number of company bankruptcies reached a record in Luxembourg last year.
According to a study released on Wednesday by credit management company Creditreform, last year there were 1,195 companies that closed their doors. This is a rise of almost 28% compared to the 935 insolvencies in 2017.


Bryggen, the old wharf of Bergen, is a reminder of the town's importance as part of the Hanseatic League's trading empire from the 14th to the mid-16th century.
Several fires, the last in 1955, have ravaged the beautiful wooden houses of Bryggen but its main structure has been preserved. Many of the remaining 58 buildings are now used as artists' studios.
There's not much left of the special wooden houses: during the ages a large number of them burnt down, and the remaining ones are now mainly used as souvenir shops - open 7 days a week and catering to the American and Japanese visitor, selling trolls and knitted stuff.
For an experience of what has been, there are two must-sees: the Schøtstuene and the Hanseatic Museum. The Schøtstuene is a small wooden building that served as an assembly room for the Hanseatic merchants. They came here to eat, drink, meet and teach their pupils. The dining/meeting hall with its large fireplace is especially worthwhile to take a look at.
The Hanseatic museum, a few doors away also in a traditional building, shows how a Hanseatic merchant lived in the 18th century. His own rooms were nicely decorated, in contrast to those of the boys that were still in training. They could even be locked up in their beds at night by their supervisor!
Very pretty old wharf but, yes, very touristy. It's a bit better out the back. If you just pretend everyone isn't there, though, you can still get good look at the buildings and how they all fit together. It's quite interesting.
I visited this WHS in May 2010. The colourful leaning wooden houses along the Bryggen harbour were the highlight of my visit. I ate a delicious whale steak with cranberry sauce in one of the very good restaurants there (registered in the whale husbandry programme). Great place to visit!
I found the tourist kitsch of the waterfront over the top, especially the Tongan bar. But I did find some less touristed sites like the King Haakon's Hall, the Maria church, Rosenkranz Tower and the fort as well as the backside of Old Bryggen along Bryggestredet.
As already written, Bryggen is very touristic. I agree that the backside is more intresting, and while in the area, do go uphill and explore the old town there. I found that part of Bergen more intresting to explore.
We visited the Bryggen, in some of the worst weather I have ever experienced on holiday. As such my abiding memories of this site are quasi-kitsch gift shops and sitting warm and cosy in a bakers drinking a cuppucino whilst watching a tallship depart the harbour.
Yet once you look beyond the current uses of the buildings, the structures themselves are a fascinating time capsule and given the fragility and suseptability to fire of such buildings a remarkable survival.
Perhaps not a site one would go to see in issolation, but when coupled with the grandeur of the West Norwegian Fijords well worth a visit.
When visiting the city of Bergen it is hard not to see Bryggen: the small area of old wooden houses. I first walked by and took a quick peek, but later on I found out the backside of the houses are actually more interesting since you can see the wooden structures better that way.
The area around the port of Bergen is called Bryggen and recalls the city´s glory days as part of the Hanseatic League. As stated above, a fire destroyed much of the old city, but what remains is still very interesting and a must-see sight when you´re in Norway. The walk along the very long harbor road is pleasant (at least on the hot summer day when I was there and the breeze from the sea cools you off) and there´s always a chance to go see a museum or visit the interesting aquarium.

SCC v MSA & Anor [2017] EWCOP 18
Judgment considering whether the mother and carer of a patient deprived of his liberty while receiving care at home should be able to act as his Rule 3A representative.
P has profound learning difficulties and is
"unable to communicate or mobilise independently, is frequently strapped into his wheelchair, is kept for some of the time in a padded room at his home with a closed door that he cannot open, is highly resistive to personal care interventions so that physical restraint is required, and does not have external carers in the home."
In these circumstances the Official Solicitor submitted that the mother, JA, should be considered "manifestly unsuitable" as the Rule 3A representative as such a person should not be a person who has a significant degree of involvement in the acts that constitute the deprivation of liberty
SCCG, the commissioning provider, argued instead that JA had shown herself to be capable of carrying out the role, and following Re VE [2016] EWCOP 16, the fact that a family member has firm views about P's best interests and plays a part in depriving P of his liberty, does not debar her from acting as litigation friend.
District Judge Bellamy, while agreeing with the OS that the court should take great care in exercising its discretion in such situations, did not go further, concluding:
"If it be the case that a family member or friend who is so involved puts themselves forward to act as representative or litigation friend, subject to that scrutiny being carried out there can be no blanket objection, in principle, to their ability to undertake the role."
He also sets out some guidelines for the issues that the court should consider in determining the issue
Read the judgment on Bailii
M v A Hospital [2017] EWCOP 19
This judgment considered whether legal proceedings were necessary when there was agreement between the Patient's family and her clinicians that CANH was no longer in her best interests. The judge concluded that they were not.
D (Medical Treatment) [2017] EWCOP 15
Application made by the Patient's mother for a declaration and order that it is in the Patient's best interests to receive stem cell treatment for his brain injury at a clinic in Belgrade in Serbia. Provisional consent was given although several further steps needed to be taken before the court gave its final approval.
The Patient was a Lance Corporal who was knocked unconscious in June 2013, while serving abroad, after being assaulted in a bar by another member of the regiment. He lacks capacity as a result of a traumatic brain injury. His mother was applying for a declaration and order that it is in his best interests to receive stem cell treatment for his brain injury at a clinic in Belgrade in Serbia. The application was opposed by the Official Solicitor, who has been appointed to act as the Patient's litigation friend in the proceedings, and by the MOD who are responsible for his care and treatment.
The court approved the application with the proviso that further steps needed to be taken first, saying that it was almost certain that the Patient will be much more than miserable if he is denied the opportunity to have stem cell treatment. His reaction would not be confined to mere "disappointment" - it was highly likely that he would demonstrate an adverse reaction in his behaviour which may significantly impede and delay his rehabilitation.


Researchers followed 1,269 adults without cardiovascular disease for 14 years. Average age of asthma diagnosis in the late-onset group (beginning at age 18 or older) was 39.5 years and 8.9 years in the early-onset group.
At the beginning of the study, 111 participants had late-onset asthma and 55 had early-onset asthma. Researchers tracked cardiovascular events, including heart attack, stroke, heart failure, angina, cardiac revascularization and cardiovascular death. They accounted for cardiovascular disease risk factors that might bias results, including smoking, high blood pressure, diabetes and being overweight.
Researchers found that people with late-onset asthma were 57 percent more likely to suffer a cardiovascular event than those without asthma. Late-onset asthma sufferers were also more likely to be female (67 percent versus 44 percent) and have a higher body mass index (32.2 versus 29.4 kg/m2) than non-asthmatics. People with early-onset asthma had no difference in cardiovascular disease events compared to non-asthmatics.
Researchers speculated that differences between early-onset and late-onset asthma may help explain study findings. In addition to being harder to control, late-onset asthma is often triggered by different factors, including air pollution, and often leads to a more rapid decline in lung function. Other studies have found an association between air pollution and compromised lung function and cardiovascular disease.
"Doctors should be monitoring for high blood pressure and cholesterol closely in (late-onset asthma) patients and be aggressive in modifying any risk factors," Tattersall said.
People with late-onset asthma can increase their chances of remaining heart-healthy and stroke-free by exercising, eating a healthy diet and maintaining a normal body weight.

How To Franchise: Yellow Cab Pizza
January 29, 2018 by James Ryan Jonas
Are you interested to own your own Yellow Cab Franchise and offer the full New York pizza experience? Here's how you can open your own Yellow Cab Pizza Restaurant.
Yellow Cab Pizza Co. is a quick casual restaurant claiming to serve "Great New York-style pizza using fresh, premium quality ingredients." Some people believe it is a foreign brand but, in reality, Yellow Cab Pizza Co. is purely Filipino.
Qualification of a Franchisee
Yellow Cab's franchise owner, the Max's Group (MAXS) of company, prefers franchisees to meet the following qualifications:
Preferably, with experience in the food and retail business
Good financial capability
With network in the trade area of the proposed store
Willing to dedicate time and has the infrastructure to manage the store
A corporation may apply for franchising but the Max's Group requires the majority shareholder to be the representative of the franchise.
Location, Floor Area, and Store Design
It is usually the franchise applicant that proposes the location of the branch (subject to Yellow Cab's site assessment, analysis, and approval), but in some cases, Yellow Cab may match preferred sites to the approved franchise applicant. Once a franchise applicant is approved, Yellow Cab may offer him or her available locations.
Yellow Cab's branches should have floor areas ranging from 120 sqm. to 150 sqm. Yellow Cab provides the standard store design, layout, equipment, and facilities requirement.
Yellow Cab Franchise Fee
The franchise fee and total investment for a Yellow Cab franchise ranges from P9 million to P14 million.
This already includes the franchise fee, store construction, furniture and fixtures, equipment, manpower hiring and training, and pre-store opening marketing activities. The investment cost is dependent on the floor area and location (i.e., fees differ in the Provincial areas, Greater Manila Area, Metro Manila, etc.)
The franchising term is valid for ten (10) years and renewable for another five (5) years upon mutual agreement of both parties.
In terms of return on investment (ROI), Yellow Cab explains that several factors determine the ROI, such as managing projected sales through marketing and promotions, as well as the ability of the franchisee to manage the store's operating expenses.
Franchise Package Inclusions
Part of the fee paid as franchise investment are the products to be served in the franchised store, including formulated ingredients and supplies. The franchisee may use designated suppliers approved by Yellow Cab.
An initial training program will also be provided to the franchisee, management team, and staff. The training fee is already included in the initial investment cost paid to the franchisor Max's Group.
As part of continuing services, Yellow Cab will conduct periodic visits aside from National-level promotions and advertising. The Area Managers, who also serve as franchise coaches, are assigned to check on operations and ensure implementation of Yellow Cab's systems and standards.
Yellow Cab promises to support the franchisee in each step of the way — from site evaluation, recruitment, training, management and development strategies in market entry. After the store launch and opening, the franchisee will continually be assisted in the management and operations, according to Yellow Cab.
How to apply for a Yellow Cab Restaurant Franchise
1. Fill out the Yellow Cab "Franchise Application Form". (You may download a copy of the application form in the Yellow Cab website.)
2. Email the completed "Application Form" and "Letter of Intent" to:
BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT & FRANCHISING
YELLOW CAB FOOD CORPORATION
Under the: MAX'S GROUP INC.
Penthouse, Ecoplaza Building,
2305 Chino Roces Avenue Extension, Makati City
Telephone: (02) 784-9000
3. Yellow Cab will contact the franchise applicant to discuss the franchisee's interest and business plans.
4. Upon passing the preliminary evaluation, the franchise will meet with Yellow Cab to discuss concerns, provisions, and terms of the Yellow Cab franchise agreement. The franchise will then be awarded and the Yellow Cab franchise contract is executed with the franchisee.
