Curbside Consults: Accompany Courtesy With Caution
Clinicians must exercise caution when providing "unofficial" advice for individuals not under their care.
Steven Mandel, MD, James R. Kahn, Esq., and Gregory D. Hanscom, Esq.<
Physicians are often requested to provide informal consultations with fellow doctors or lay persons. These discussions of various sorts— sometimes called "curbside consults"—may sometimes be approached reluctantly by the solicited physician. That is prudent as such encounters can occasionally expose the doctor to a medical malpractice claim. Indeed, the courts, in limited situations, have allowed claims against a physician who provided just informal advice. So-called "Good Samaritan" laws do not usually provide protection in these situations. For this reason, when providing curbside consults, a doctor must temper her courtesy with caution.
There are several situations which might be considered a curbside consult or something akin to it:
1. A physician or nurse seeks advice of another physician in the hospital concerning the treatment of a patient not under the care of the physician who is being questioned and then records the discussion in the patient's chart;
2. There is a general conversation between physicians about interesting cases, either in an informal conference or a formal setting such as grand rounds and this is recorded;
3. A doctor at a tertiary center is called by someone at a community hospital for advice about possible transfer and treatment which is recorded in the chart;
4. A specialist is called for a consult by a hospital emergency room;
5. A doctor screens radiological or other studies or conducts physicals for an employer or other third party but is not serving a patient directly;
6. A lay friend or acquaintance seeks informal advice from a doctor;
7. A doctor comments about a particular patient's situation on an internet blog; or
8. A doctor makes comments about patient treatment in a lecture or textbook.
The law is unsettled whether such informal, indirect or limited discussions could expose a physician to malpractice liability. The longstanding touchstone of malpractice liability is that a physician owes a duty to her patient; if there is no physician-patient relationship, there can be no liability. Applied literally, this would shield doctors from liability in most curbside consult situations. But this doctrine has been eroding in decisions from various courts.
Courts are divided over whether a physician in an informal consult owes a duty of care to a particular patient. The underlying rationale for courts denying such a duty is the concern that a permitting liability would negatively affect quality of care by deterring doctors from engaging in informal consultations. 1 Judges reason that the practical benefits of allowing physicians to freely engage in informal consultations without fear of potential legal ramifications lawsuit outweighs the potential benefit of allowing such claims.
On the other hand, courts permitting liability hold either that the existence of the necessary doctorpatient is typically a fact question for the jury to resolve or that the underlying policies of tort law would not be furthered by such a rule.2 Specifically, some judges have found that the dual policies of compensating tort victims and dissuading negligent conduct could potentially be undermined if consulting physicians were always protected from malpractice claims.3 These courts have established various guidelines for determining whether a consulting physician owes a duty of care to the patient. The United States District Court for the District of Maryland, for example, explained the relevant inquiry as follows:
The analysis...loosely focuses on three areas: (1) the existence of a relationship between the consulting doctor and the facility providing care that would require the consulting doctor to provide advice; (2) the degree to which the consultation given affected the course of treatment; and (3) the relative ability and independence of the immediate care provider to implement his or her own decision.
Bessenyei v. Raiti, 266 F. Supp. 2d 408, 411-412 (D. Md. 2003), citing Sterling v. John Hopkins Hosp., 802 A.2d 440 (Md. Ct. Spec. App. 2002).
Ultimately, this is a jurisdiction-specific issue with differing results depending on the state in which the lawsuit against a consulting physician is filed. In general, the degree of attenuation of the physician's relationship with the patient is critical to determining whether a duty exists. For example, situations involving either a screening for an employer or advice provided pursuant to a formal consultation agreement are more likely to result in the finding of a physician patient relationship than a simple telephone call or a general comment in a lecture or grand rounds.4
There are some simple steps that can be taken to reduce a physician's risk from these encounters:
• If another physician or nurse seeks advice informally, emphasize that comments are "informal", "based on general principals" and are "not a formal consultation", framing responses in general or abstract terms, suggesting several potential treatment options and their risks and benefits, emphasizing that such a conversation does give rise to a formal consulting relationship nor is the physician advocating a particular course of action.
• Avoid evaluating tests results or providing a specific diagnosis.
• Attempt to keep all informal consultations regarding a specific patient to a minium.
• If a patient's treating physician pushes for more specific guidance suggest that a more comprehensive evaluation may be appropriate. This will ensure that any specific treatment recommendations are based on a full understanding of the particular patient's medical history and is not the result of either second-hand or incomplete information.
• Do not discuss matters outside one's field of expertise and never prescribe medications informally.
• Create a special, permanent office folder with notes about such informal consults. Naturally, a doctor would not be writing up a consult note for a hospital or office chart when it is not the doctor's patient who is discussed. But very often the doctor soliciting the advice will have made a note, and that will be the only written recording. However, the doctor consulted can protect himself by making his own note, kept in a special miscellaneous file that does not imply a doctor-patient relationship, but which does allow the consulted doctor to make a written record that emphasizes the informal, non-specific and non-conclusory nature of the advice.
• In the realm of the employer screening and other formal situations, it is more difficult to avoid a claim that there was a misdiagnosis or failure to diagnose. Here the physician should protect himself, at least from a monetary standpoint, by obtaining a contractual indemnity or agreement to provide insurance from the company employing the physician to screen. Further, it could be helpful to create a document for each employee to sign which explains the limited nature of the screening, the fact that there is no doctor- patient relationship and that the screening is not meant to diagnose conditions for the employee.
• Where advice is sought by a lay person, the physician responding must emphasize that it would be best for the inquirer to consult her own physician or set up a formal appointment with the doctor if appropriate, and that the responder is not the inquirer's doctor. In other words, make clear that the person should not be relying on the responder's advice and that the responder is not the inquirer's doctor— both of which are requirements for legal liability.
In the dermatology practice there is a growing practice of teledermatology where the doctor is involved in a remote consult for patients without direct or easy access to a dermatologist. The dermatologist either provides a diagnosis and treatment plan after electronically reviewing the patient's tests results without an in-person consult, or provides a diagnosis and treatment plan utilizing a real-time video conference system. In either scenario, a court is very likely to conclude that the dermatologist may be sued for malpractice because this consultation is formal and involves a specific patient.
On the other hand, a dermatologist may receive an e-mailed photograph from a general practice physician. For example, a picture of a lesion may accompany the message, "A patient came in today with this wart. Is freezing it still the preferred treatment?" Subsequently, it is discovered that the purported wart is, in reality, a malignant neoplasm which, as a result of being frozen, has an atypical appearance delaying the appropriate diagnosis. This is a much less likely scenario for liability, but still problematic. To reduce this risk, the dermatologist's response should be stated in general terms and include a caveat that the proper course of treatment in a particular case is fact dependent. The dermatologist should recommend that the individual consult with a dermatologist for a full evaluation prior to making any treatment decisions.
These informal situations are difficult to avoid. But if handled properly, if courtesy is accompanied by caution, they are far less likely to lead to later legal difficulties.

There are numerous scenarios in which adermatologist may be asked to comment on a case or provide guidanceto a medial colleague or an acquaintance. The law is inconsistentregarding the existence of a physician/patient relationship in many ofthese situations. Therefore, the clinician sharing advice should makeclear the nature of their comments, encourage a full consultation whenindicated, and document conversations in the proper way. If handledproperly, if courtesy is accompanied by caution, these situations are farless likely to lead to later legal difficulties.

Ottawa (15 March 2018) — Canadians for Tax Fairness is calling on the federal governmen tto take action on tax and gender bias.
Canadians for Tax Fairness reports 2 problems with gender bias in the tax system: 1.income tax breaks that benefit the wealthy, disproportionately benefit men, and 2. the loss of revenue from tax breaks means less funding for programs that help people with low incomes, who are more likely to be women.
Tax loopholes are used almost exclusively by top income earners, businesses and CEOs to maximize their bottom line and pay as little tax as possible. These include the Capital Gains Deduction, Employee Stock Options Deduction, the Meals and Entertainment Deduction and the Dividend Gross-up Credit. Top income earners also use private corporations for the same purpose.
The government says it wants to increase the labour force participation rate of women but it has so far only committed token amounts to child care — the single most important way to boost women in the work force. The government needs the revenues to deliver programs like child care, elder care, pharmacare and pensions that are desperately needed by low income women in Canada.
failing to close the door to corporate use of tax havens ($ 10 billion— 15 billion).
Canada now ranks 25th out of 35 OECD countries when it comes to the ratio of tax revenue to GDP.
"For Canada to be a real leader in gender budgeting, the revenue side of the budget cannot be ignored. That is where the rubber really meets the road on what the government can and can't do for gender equality," says Gibson.

PAC Grills Ex-Judiciary PS 'Kagole' Over Missing Shs343 Million
By Our Reporter March 5, 2020 0
Lawmakers on the Public Accounts Committee gave grilled the former Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Justice, Kagole Kivumbi over a Shs343 million payment to the Chief Justice, Bart Katureebe and Deputy Chief Justice, Alphonse Owiny Dollo meant for foreign travels in the financial year 2018/2019.
The Committee chaired by Hon. Nandala Mafabi was Wednesday, 04 March 2020 considering the Auditor General's Report for the financial year 2018/2019.
In the Report, the Auditor General said that Kivumbi, the accounting officer, paid out the money to the Chief
Justice, his Deputy and a team believed to have travelled with them for three different trips both in and out of the country but during the same period.
Mafabi accused Kivumbi of using the positions and names of the three top judges for fraudulent acts they were not aware of.
Quoting the Report, Mafabi said that on 25 and the 28 June 2018, Kivumbi withdrew Shs50 million and Shs32.2 million respectively for the Chief Justice to travel to Australia, and another Shs29.8 million on 29 June 2018 to travel to South Africa.
"In four days, how do you draw money for activities that are overlapping within the same time frame; how did the Chief Justice wind up in the same places at the same time?" Mafabi asked.
Okin P. P. Ojara (Indep., Chua West) said that the audit report was a qualified opinion of the Auditor General stating that his [Kivumbi] record was not the best.
Hon. Alex Byarugaba (NRM, Isingiro County South) said that another Shs275 million was paid out to cater for the travel to Australia from 28 June to 14 September 2018.
Kivumbi, however, said that it was unfair for the members to castigate him on an issue that was being investigated by the Inspectorate of Government and whose facts have been distorted.
"I was requested in writing by the Chief Justice to pay out the aforementioned money for them to travel and I did as they wished; money was paid to the officers through Stanbic Bank for them to travel," he said.
He denied accusations of fraud and said that the documents before the Committee accusing him of fraud and fictitious payments were incomplete.
He insisted that the Chief Justice travelled to Australia with other judicial officers and to South Africa while the Deputy Chief Justice going upcountry.
"It is not fraud; I confirm that the Chief Justice and judicial officers travelled. I also did not receive any of the above monies as might be thought," Kivumbi said adding that, "these issues are issues under investigation? It isn't me who received the money but the activities were done".

UK floods a poll issue
East midlands homes and farms swamped by rising waters
By Amit Roy in London
Published 14.11.19, 12:49 AM
Boris Johnson, clambers over a fence, during a visit to see the effects of recent flooding, in Stainforth, England, Wednesday, November 13, 2019 AP
Flooding in large swathes of Yorkshire and the East Midlands has become a general election issue, with the Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn making the allegation that if the Tory heartland in Surrey in the south of the country had been affected, Boris Johnson's Conservative government would have shown greater concern.
"If this was happening in Surrey, it would be a national emergency," said Corbyn.
It was pointed out his accusation was a false one because Surrey did suffer serious flooding in 2014 when a national emergency was not declared.
After chairing a meeting of the government's emergency "Cobra" committee on Tuesday, Prime Minister Boris Johnson was on Wednesday visiting villages near Doncaster in Yorkshire where 100 troops have been deployed
to help people forced to evacuate their homes.
Although climate change is partly held responsible for the flooding, other factors, such as building thousands of homes on flood plains, concreting over vast areas to put up supermarkets and not dredging rivers and the old waterways, are also thought to have aggravated a worsening crisis.
In the past, there was heavy rain in some years but the water was absorbed by the soil. Now, it seems there is nowhere for the water to go with the result a river "can rise eight feet in half a day", according to a man in his eighties who could recall the old days.
The village of Fishlake in the borough of Doncaster now really does look like a lake.
Many of the individual stories are heartrending. While photographs of the after effects of Bulbul in Bengal show villagers who had very little before now left with nothing, the images in England are of tearful residents standing in several feet of water in their front rooms with their valued possessions floating on water.
It is hard to believe this is happening in England but Henry Ward said his 1,000-acre farm near Lincolnshire in the East Midlands is under 10 feet of water. His farm buildings have been left completely marooned after the nearby Barlings Eau river burst its banks.
"In our particular case, we haven't actually got any crops in the ground," Ward told the BBC. "We were preparing. We had seedbought, fertiliser bought to start drilling, but now it just looks like a sea. We now don't think we'll be able to plant and growanything for the next 12 months, which will have a huge financial impact on us. "
Ward criticised the government's Environment Agency for not doing enough to prevent flooding in the north. "To be honest if theydredged our waterways.… there certainly would be much less (flooding). We don't know what's going to happen, we really do feel onour own."
There is a risking to life from swiftly moving water. A few days ago a body recovered from flood water turned out to be that of amuch loved local dignitary – Annie Hall, who was the former High Sheriff of Derbyshire.
Flood warnings and alerts are currently in place in locations from Somerset and East Sussex in the South, to as far north as theLower River Nidd near Harrogate in Yorkshire, and the Holderness Drain in east Yorkshire.
For any politician to turn up with camera crew in tow does not always win votes. One resident in flood-hit Stainforth in SouthYorkshire clutched her wheelbarrow as she told the visiting Prime Minister: "I'm not very happy about talking to you so, if youdon't mind, I'll just mope on with what I'm doing."
Boris shrugged off her cold shoulder as he told reporters: "I perfectly understand how people feel and you can understand theanguish a flood causes. The shock of seeing your property engulfed by water is huge and also the anxiety of what may still be tocome and I do thank the emergency services for everything they are doing."
The British are not the only ones to be suffering. Venice has been hit by the highest tide in more than 50 years, with touristswading through flooded streets to seek shelter as a fierce wind whipped up waves in St. Mark's Square.
The exceptionally intense "acqua alta", or high waters, peaked at 1.87 metres as the flood alarm sounded across the Italian city ofcanals, the tide monitoring centre said.
Only once since records began in 1923 has the water crept even higher, reaching 1.94 metres in 1966.

Welcome back! It's that time of the month again, 12 Tags of 2015 time, based on Tim Holtz's April Tag.
As usual I made a few changes: I used my flower stamps but didn't have a stem so used a permanent marker and drew them in! I coloured using Tim's technique, and I thought this worked really well. I cut the words using a Silhouette (loving this machine!). I stitched on the flowers, added a little heart button, and coloured my ribbon to match. A very sweet tag!

Pray to End Famine
Join churches worldwide responding to the worse hunger crisis of our time.
Last year, World Vision joined more than 120 faith-based organisations in the Global Day of Prayer to End Famine. The Day of Prayer played a crucial role in raising awareness and inspiring action around the world. Through humanitarian efforts, we have seen enormous obstacles beaten for many people facing hunger. Unfortunatley, in 2018, the risk of famine remains, and has even increased, having the potential to spread to many other areas.
More people face famine today than any time in modern history.
This crisis is not hitting the news the way it needs to be and the world isn't responding quickly enough. The Global Day of Prayer to End Famine is an opportunity for faith based communitys all over the world to bring light to the hunger crisis and the impact it has on the most vulnerable children.
Currently in Somalia, South Sudan, Nigeria and Yemen, 20 million people are living on the brink of famine. In addition to these four countries, millions of people in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Uganda, Ethiopia, Syria and Bangladesh have been forced from their homes by conflict, putting them at even greater risk of food insecurity and hunger.
Now more than ever, the Church needs to come together to pray and respond to those in need.
In Matthew 25, Jesus says, "For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in." For people of faith, this is our moral imperative: Feed the vulnerable. Build peace.
On Sunday, 10 June, may our millions of prayers join the millions of our sisters and brothers as they cry to the Lord to be delivered from their distress. Together we can light a way for sustained peace and abundance.

New York Federal Court Blocks Enforcement of "No Credit Card Surcharge" Law
Offices |
Client Value & Innovation
by the Consumer Financial Services Group
Commenting that "Alice in Wonderland has nothing on" a New York law that prohibits merchants from imposing a surcharge on credit card purchases, a New York federal court has entered a preliminary injunction that prohibits the New York Attorney General from enforcing the law. Five merchants and their principals sought the injunction in connection with a lawsuit they filed challenging the statute's constitutionality. (See our prior legal alert for a discussion of the lawsuit.)
Although the federal ban on credit card surcharges expired in 1984, MasterCard's and Visa's contractual rules continued to prohibit merchants from imposing surcharges. That prohibition ended earlier this year, however, as required by the terms of the national settlement of the numerous class actions filed against MasterCard and Visa by merchants claiming the companies had engaged in anticompetitive behavior in setting credit card interchange rates. Accordingly, "no surcharge" state laws, such as the challenged New York law, are the only remaining obstacle to surcharges for merchants accepting MasterCard and Visa credit cards.
The plaintiffs had sought a preliminary injunction based on their claims in the underlying lawsuit that New York's law was unconstitutional because it violated their First Amendment free speech rights and the Due Process Clause of the 14th Amendment by failing to provide guidance on what speech was prohibited. The defendants had filed a cross-motion to dismiss the complaint in its entirety.
As an initial matter, the court found that, because the statute presently chilled plaintiffs' fundamental right to free speech, the case was ripe, and because they "legitimately fear that [the law] may be enforced against them," all of the plaintiffs had standing.
The court agreed with the plaintiffs that the law violated the First Amendment by prohibiting them from advertising their pricing in a manner that characterized the difference between the cash and credit price as a surcharge for a customer's use of credit instead of paying with cash or by another payment method. The court declined to validate the surcharge ban as a mere disclosure statute that required an item's credit price and cash price to be displayed with at least equal prominence. In part, this refusal was based on the earlier prosecution of a gas station owner who advertised both credit and cash prices for gasoline. It was also based in part on the court's view that characterizing the law as a disclosure requirement departed too far from the statutory language banning surcharges. According to the court, even if the law could be so characterized, any disclosure requirement was not sufficiently tailored to the State's concern about potential deception resulting from surcharges.
Additionally, the court concluded that, because it failed to provide guidance on what speech was prohibited, the statute was unconstitutionally vague in violation of the Due Process Clause. Finally, the court refused to dismiss the plaintiffs' claim that the law was preempted by the Sherman Act, concluding that a Sherman Act decision on the merits would require extensive fact-finding.

Q: TextBox ScrollToCaret causing threading confusion Apparently System.Windows.Forms.RichTextBox.ScrollToCaret can cause additional events to be processed within its call.  When placed within an event handler it can make code appear to run in a multievent (not really multithreaded but just as confusing) fashion causing race conditions.  Apologizing in advance for missing details:
1) Windows form app .NET C# 3.5
2) Create a Canvas and RichTextBox
3) Start a worker thread that calls canvas.Invalidate() at 30fps.
4) Capture OnMouseMove() and Paint() for the canvas.
5) Within OnMouseMove append append text to a RichTextBox and call ScrollToCaret().
6) Use a static short _eventdepth that ++ at top and -- at bottom of each of OnMouseMove  and OnPaint.
7) Trap when the value of _eventdepth > 1.  Stack Trace:
   Canvas::OnPaint()
   [External Code]
   Canvas::OnMouseMove(),  scrollToCaret() is within

Is this behavior documented and supposed to work like this--are there are "GUI" calls that will distribute "child" events?  Sharing this in case some one else starts burning time on it or in case I am misunderstanding whats happening.
--- edit ---
I have also now wrapped the call to canvas.Invalidate (step 3) from the secondary thread with BeginInvoke.  I also had a lock that was blocking when that happens windows begins to dispatch additional events (in the same primary thread) as a solution rather than block (and hang like I would have expected).
The ScrollToCaret() still causes OnPaint() to be called from within the same stack.  Is it just obvious to to windows programmers which methods may trigger additional event dispatches?

A: Even if you follow Microsoft's recommendation to manipulate the control, it can still give you unexpected high CPU usage and hang (the cause seems to be inside riched20.dll.
So I suggest you use a simple TextBox or switch to WPF completely.

Engraved map with hand color.
Amsterdam: 1635-1667).
20" x 23 1/2" sheet, 29" x 33" framed.
This important map, first issued in 1635, is one of the first to focus on the Dutch colony in North America and to name Nieu Amsterdam (New York).
A Landmark Early Map In the Mapping of the Dutch and British Colonies in North America
Fine old color example of the Blaeu's seminal map of New England and the Northeast.
Blaeu's map of New England is one of the most important advances in the printed mapping of the region in the first half of the 17th Century. Burden states:
This important map was one of the most attractive of the Americas at the time. It is noted for the fact that its primary source is the first manuscript figurative map of Adriaen Block, 1614, . . . the first full representation of it in print. It is one of the earliest to name Nieu Amsterdam. Block, a Dutch fur trader, explored the area between Cape Cod and Manhattan, examining the bays and rivers along the way. This helped to create an accurate picture of the longitudinal scale of the coastline. His manuscript map is the first document to delineate an insular Manhattan; it also provides the earliest appearance of Manhates and Niev Nederlandt.
It has been noted that the time difference between 1614, the date of the manuscript, and Blaeu's map whose first appearance is in 1635, appears long for such an important advance. It would seem highly feasible that Blaeu, who published many separately issued maps, would have wanted to produce one like this sooner. However, evidence points to the fact that it could not have been made before 1630. The Stokes Collection in New York possesses an example of the map on thicker paper without text on the reverse which could well be a proof issue of some kind.
There are features on Blaeu's map that differ from the Block chart. Some of these could be accounted for by the fact that the surviving figurative map is not the original, and that the copyist omitted some placenames that are referred to in the text of de Laet's work. Block drew on Champlain's map of 1612 for the depiction of the lake named after him, but it is here called Lacus Irocoisiensis. . . The lack of interrelation between the Dutch or English colonies and the French, led for some time to the eastward displacement of this lake when its true position would be north of the Hudson River.
Some nomenclature has its origins in Blaeu's second Paskaert of c.1630, and others, such as Manatthans, in de Laet. The colony of Nieu Pleimonth is identified. This and other English names along that part of the coast are largely derived from Smith's New England, 1616. Cape Cod is here improved over the Block manuscript by being reconnected to the mainland, the narrow strait having been removed. The coastline between here and Narragansett Bay, which can be clearly recognised, is not so accurate. Adriaen Blocx Eylandt leads us to the Versche Rivier, or Connecticut River, which Block ascended as far as was possible. 't Lange Eyland is named; however, it is incorrectly too far east, being applied to what is possibly Fishers Island. De Groote bay marks Long Island Sound. The Hudson River is still not named as such, but is littered with Dutch settlements, and the failed Fort Nassau is here depicted renamed as Fort Orange. He does, however, improve on the direction of its flow. Blaeu separates the sources of the Hudson and Delaware Rivers which had been causing some confusion. Nieu Amsterdam is correctly marked as a fort at the tip of an island separated on the east side by Hellegat, or the East River. The coastline south of Sandy Hook also shows signs of improvement.
The whole map is adorned by deer, foxes, bears, egrets, rabbits, cranes and turkeys. Beavers, polecats and otters appear on a printed map for the first time. The Mohawk Indian village top right is derived from the de Bry-White engravings.

Keegan Martin is a 24 year old, dedicated young man that is passionate and hardworking. He is determined to make a success of his career in music. He started singing at the age of 8 in a primary school choir and joined his high school choir and church choir when he was 13 years old. Keegan went on to become a school choir conductor for two different high schools at the age of 17.
He has been fortunate enough to have worked with international Gospel artists, Donnie Mcklurkin and Marvin Winans, in 2012 as well as Vashawn Mitchell. In 2014, Keegan had the privilege to be a part of the opening act for international RnB legend, Tamia, when she did her SA Tour at Carnival City. This year, he was the opening act for former Idols SA winner, Musa, at the World of Yamaha Theatre as well as the opening act for Afro Soul artist, Lira, at Skyy Vodka's event this year. Keegan has shared the stage with the likes of Ringo and Siphokazi as a backing vocalist for a CD launch. Recently, Keegan also performed at the DSTV Delicious Festival.
Having made it to the Top 7 contestants on Idols SA 2016, this young, dedicated artist is eager to build a strong career in the music industry and to show the world what he has to offer. Keegan was a firm fan favourite and his exit from the competition was a startling surprise for many. His fan base stretches as far as Zambia, already showing that he has made an impact and is a memorable performer. His trademark charisma and rhythmic dance moves captivate crowds and always gets the people grooving; making him perfect for any event.
