Farfetch Sees Big Year Ahead After 'Carefully Engineered' Deals

Farfetch is gearing up for a big 2023.
In a Nutshell: "Luxury is an amazing industry, cemented in the pillars of creativity, craftsmanship and culture, and from a financial point of view, very profitable and resilient, even in very adverse macro environment," Farfetch founder, chairman and CEO José Neves told investors in a call on Thursday. "We are navigating a volatile macro environment adeptly, continuing to post growth compounding on what has been a tremendous three-year run for Farfetch, a period that saw our business double as measured by our GMV."
Neves sees big things ahead for 2023 after Farfetch inked a significant deal this year with Reebok, invested $200 million to grow Neiman Marcus Group's digital chops, and forged strategic ties with Salvatore Ferragamo, all of which should "reaccelerate growth" into the year ahead.
Despite industry-wide troubles in China, Neves said Farfetch is "very bullish" about the world's second-largest economy "over the medium and in the longer term."
"We think this is an incredible market," he said. "It will be the largest luxury goods market in the world by 2025."
Farfetch on Wednesday announced an agreement with Yoox-Net-A-Porter (YNAP) that sees Compagnie Financière selling a 50.7 percent controlling stake in the money-losing business, with Neves' firm acquiring a 47.5 percent stake and Symphony Global, an investment arm of Mohamed Alabbar, taking 3.2 percent. Farfetch has the option to take over Richemont's 49.30 percent within five years.

Neves founded Farfetch to bring luxury into the era of tech, he told investors. That's the genesis behind the company's Luxury New Retail platform enabling for seamless conversion across different shopping modes and connecting in-demand players with customers demanding a top-notch experience.
Farfetch laid the groundwork when it acquired luxury boutique Browns in 2015 and built out online flagship stores for Gucci, Chanel, Harrods and more, before looking to China in a tie-up with Alibaba, Richemont and Kering. The deal for YNAP "represents the culmination of these carefully engineered deals," he told investors, adding that not only does luxury need an agile tech platform, "but also that Farfetch is perfectly positioned to answer that goal." Despite the collaborators' synergies, the partners still "represent only 3 percent" of global luxury. "There is plenty of growth to go for, and [a] strong cycle of tailwinds that we aim to continue to capitalize on," he said.
During the call, Stephanie Phair, the new group president for Farfetch's marketplace business and former chief customer officer, pointed to the launch of Farfetch Beat, a new series of ad hoc collaborations and product experiences that offer rare story-driven luxury pieces. The first drop was Opening Ceremony x Peter Do, which sold out in two hours, generated over 2 million social media impressions, and helped Farfetch push social commerce with its digital marketing strategy and the new social media platform BeReal, Phair said. Brand and boutique partners appreciate Farfetch's heavily millennial and Gen Z customer base, split 70-30 female to male, she added.
Farfetch is still building its presence in the $70 billion beauty market after it launched the category earlier this year following its deal for Violet Grey.
Edward Sabbagh is now Farfetch's chief marketplace officer and the company expects to end the with more staff than it had a year. In addition, chief marketing officer Gareth Jones and chief commercial and sustainability officer Giorgio Belloli are leaving their posts, with Belloli succeeded by Stephen Eggleston, currently senior vice president, commercial.
Net Sales: Total revenue for the quarter ended June 30 grew 10.7 percent to $579.3 million from $523.3 million, while gross merchandise value (GMV)—the total volume of merchandise sales on the Farfetch platform —rose 1.3 percent to $1.02 billion from $1.01 billion. GMV excludes certain items such as discounts and delivery fees and product returns.
Farfetch said its digital platform GMV, excluding brand platform GMV, for the quarter fell 3.3 percent year-on-year to $883.1 million, while its brand platform GMV, its New Guards Group business that's not part of its other business units, spiked 47.3 percent to $107.1 million. The remaining revenue was attributed to in-store GMV.
The Farfetch marketplace offered customers an "extensive selection of in-season luxury fashion on a global platform from over 1,400 sellers," while supply from both multi-brand retailers and e-concession partners increased year-over-year to total stock units of nearly 12 million in the quarter, the company said.
Neves said full-price marketplace GMV excluding Russia and Mainland China grew 20 percent year-on-year for the second consecutive quarter, before accounting for foreign exchange volatility. Russia remains closed and GMV from China was down due to Covid restrictions.
Chief financial officer Elliot Jordan said Farfetch will likely mark down product through December because it ordered product prior to geopolitical disruption in Russia and elsewhere. It tried to cancel what it could, honored contracts and is accepting shipments, despite markdowns impacting gross margins. The company had 3.8 million active customers in the quarter, reflecting slight growth across all categories. Fashion was a strong growth category, and the U.S. and China each saw more active customers in the quarter versus the first quarter. And even though Farfetch lost 50,000 active customers from the shutdown of operations in Russia, it also acquired over 500,000 new customers in the quarter, Jordan said.
Earnings: After-tax profit fell 23 percent to $67. 7 million from $87.9 million. Second quarter earnings per share was 18 cents, while the diluted loss per share was 50 cents, including certain liabilities.
For the second half, the company said it expects digital platform GMV growth of 0 percent to 5 percent from prior year levels, and brand platform GMV growth of between 0 percent to 10 percent. Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) was forecasted to be flat for the year. While guidance was revised downward, Jordan said on the call that the reason was due to the "stronger U.S. dollar."
CEO's Take: "In 2023, we will lap the impact of Russia. And I believe China will return to growth. Additionally, we will start to see the impact of large deals such as Reebok, Neiman Marcus Group and Ferragamo," Neves said. "These multiple factors of growth, combined with the strong underlying performance of our business outside macro-affected regions, and the rationalization we took the opportunity to take action this year, make me very bullish for 2023 and beyond in terms of growth, profitability and cash generation."

:: May 2006 Letter ::
Dear Fellow Zoo Fans,
How long does your typical European Brown Bear live? Every two years since 1998 my colleagues and I have visited Maxi, Schnute, and Tilo, the official Berlin bears residing between our hotel and ILA, the slightly under appreciated air show. I've come to think of these bears as more than playful forest creatures; they make great obvious metaphors too. Especially if you're an industry analyst with nothing else to write about.
When we first visited the bears, Germany's aerospace industry future looked great. The new Daimler Chrysler Aerospace (DASA) would play a dominant role in Europe. The Fokker structures biz was kaput, but the new Fairchild Dornier in Bavaria had a slam-dunk RJ business plan. The next step looked clear: DASA and BAe, having the most in common because they were fully private "Anglo-American" style companies, were going to walk off into the sunset, leaving the semi-socialist French in the lurch.
But somehow, the two companies grew apart. Just before ILA 2000 BAe merged with GEC Marconi, creating BAE Systems, a vertically integrated company of the kind that everyone once agreed should never be created. DASA went from Anglophile to Anglophobe, a move the French did not need to be persuaded to make. The result: EADS.
With each post-1998 ILA German industry looked less relevant. EADS's creation produced a continental champion with a strong German role, but it also left BAE free to pursue its own European dream: to get the hell away from Europe. EADS has done reasonably well, but that's largely thanks to Airbus, which now faces serious product challenges. And by ILA 2002 it was painfully clear that Fairchild Dornier wasn't going to rescue Oberpfaffenhofen from relying on drunken Australian tourists for business after all. As for ILA, it tried to compete with the other shows as a Gateway to the East, but when people walked through that gateway they found rusting machine tools and unwanted MiGs. ILA and German aerospace were stuck in a holding pattern.
German aerospace today has two negatives. First, Daimler Chrysler, the cash behind Germany's EADS share, plans to sell around half its stake, possibly reducing Germany's power within the company. Second, Germany's defense budget continues shrinking; the MoD appears to be buying weapons with IOUs.
Yet from the German standpoint there's good news too. German defense spending might be anemic, but it plays a larger role in EADS's revenue than French spending, which also goes to Dassault, Thales, GIAT, and other big players. Also, as key programs such as Eurofighter, A400M, NH 90, and Tiger continue to transition from development to production they should be more profitable. On a macro level, predictions of Germany's industrial demise have proven wrong. The country's manufactured exports are twice as large as France's, and higher than the US level.
Politics play a big role. The Merkel Administration is doing rather well. By contrast, the Chirac Administration is degenerating into farce. As a US citizen, I'm not exactly on thick ice here. But the Chirac regime is beyond mere incompetence; it's firmly into banana republique territory (the big current scandal involves a bank with a name like a phone company; I do not plan to learn more). Worse, EADS's French leadership is hobbled by incestuous links with its government.
The German half of EADS, in short, brings good governance and parent government legitimacy. The effect of good governance (and good government) is tough to quantify in market share or EBITDA. But if you're trying to sell to DoD and the US Government, it's extremely useful. Even better, if you need to tap into US equities or capital markets, especially to replace the corporate shares held by the current EADS stakeholders (Lagardere is selling too), good governance is an essential message for investors and bankers. Good governance, indirectly, could mean the difference between funding a new Airbus widebody family sooner and funding it later.
Good governance doesn't guarantee smart moves. In 1914 Germany was a well-run country that could do just one thing to not become the dominant power in Europe: go to war. In 1999 Airbus was a well-run company that could do just one thing to not become the dominant jetmaker by 2010: launch the A380. Again, the mind boggles with might-have-beens.
What else did I learn on my German trip? First, like most observers, I think Airbus will launch that new 250/350-seat jetliner family soon, probably before Farnborough. Second, they will ask for (and need) state aid to do this, effectively a state-funded package to rescue them from the state-funded A380. If the WTO rules against this desperately needed aid, the Europeans will likely ignore the ruling.
Therefore, the threat of a US-European trade conflict has ratcheted up a notch. EADS might again need to decide between public cash for Airbus and a shot at the USAF tanker contract. This is not an easy choice: to be a national champion or to be a global export player. BAE made that choice long ago, and distancing itself from Airbus is the latest sign that it's sticking to its decision.
Which brings us back to the metaphorical bears. They live longer than I expected. I'm looking forward to visiting them in 2008. And you can visit them too. They're in a nice park right across from the Markische Museum, in the Mitte neighborhood. Around the block there's a fine neighborhood bar/restaurant called the Marinehaus. Meantime, Teal updated reports for May include the F-35 JSF, 787, Hawk, C-130, MB.339, 328JET, and everything Sikorsky builds.
Yours, Mit Freundlichen Grüßen,

– Productive laws from poaching need to be introduced into teach. Inside this innovative era exactly where optimum governments are concentrating upon preserving the pursuits of the improving upon inhabitants, private farming is the only approach towards defending endangered animal species.
The moment it will come in the direction of endangered pets it is a unbelievably unattainable issue toward communicate relating to simply because of how unhappy the predicament is. But the wonder is; what can we do above Those people endangered pets as a result that we can carry on getting to be gratification in opposition to them for the sake of the biosphere's survival as well as variety?
Even while there is a superior quantity of conservationists over the environment that consider locating and performing alternative techniques in the direction of secure the endangered animal species, not adequate has been completed in direction of save the condition. Likewise poaching of pets for meat, fur, ivory and medicines is moreover assisting in the direction of prevent animal figures. Oneself would be surprised at what an email messages or cellphone contact can do.
The optimum significant thing is that on your own exactly get started towards do a little something since if your self basically sit by means of and see things take place near you then oneself is not going to be equipped in the direction of do something. This allows within comprehending issues impacting some species, their weaknesses, for illustration, about their reactions towards substitute climates concerning other information crucial toward the preserving of the endangered animal species.
Quite a few nations around the world incorporate location within just Space a amount of legislation, recommendations and legislation that include endangered pets and have even positioned some of them inside of conservation plans within just their organic habitat or within a facility.
Considering the fact that of the different degrees of endangered animals, a range of animal organizations include come up with a method that categorizes such species accordingly. Continue to, some Those people prepare private farming as a route of preserving these types of endangered animal species.
The developing populace prerequisites for natural supplies. Dr. It will help in the direction of slow down or reverse people's tendencies of misusing resources. The private farmers merely will need toward be confident of the monetary rewards that they will accrue towards personalized animal farming and they will consider up the purpose towards include endangered animal species.
Personal farming of turtles in China includes on top of that discovered an strengthen inside the variety of the specie, even though conservation experts argue that the farming is made up of a negative affect on wild turtles as it minimizes their inhabitants.
Richard Emslie who is a scientist at IUCN attests in direction of the truth that particular farming contains been of superior help inside guarding this sort of animal species thanks in direction of effective enforcement of the legislation creating it much easier for area communities in the direction of take part fully in conservation programs. Yourself can deliver one of this sort of species your personal and do your element towards help save them.
You can donate cash towards guidance the will cause that are at the moment preventing in the direction of protect their legal rights. Within just final decision no 1 has immediately in the direction of exploit nature and the organic and natural components considering that they not only belong towards us nevertheless too towards each living getting as well as in direction of the long run creation.
This require potential customers in direction of countless effects which includes deforestation; habitat loss; air, land and h2o pollution and extermination of species. However at this time they will under no circumstances be recognized yet again considering the fact that of the mistreatment that they suffered versus.
Still there are components that can be performed in the direction of save the pets that are already in possibility of likely extinct. Towards satisfy the growing desires which include food items and shelter us residents slice down trees- the habitat of pets. Animals that are no longer recognizable within their organic and natural habitat and need in the direction of be areas in a conservation application are recognized as extinct inside of the wild animals. Conservation guarantees the survival of life inside of all its styles and wide range and deliver guaranteed that natural and organic components continue for the usefulness of potential generations.
The institution of nationwide parks, reserves, sanctuaries is a Pretty successful method of saving natural and organic sections and their wildlife. After the underlying things of endangerment are revealed, it truly is easy in the direction of brainstorm and generate viable services to salvage the problem. At the time animals are extinct they do not appear again.
It is a rather unsatisfied region of affairs the moment you believe concerning endangered animals. The pets are inside of chance and need to have all the aid they can receive therefore do your component.
Endangered animals are those pets which could possibly soon no lengthier exist since of being area in this sort of an detrimental predicament the place they can be destroyed or broken. For all those who consist of tried using, it may not be as easy as it sounds.
Endangered animals can also be harmless through the government. Or you can even start out your own organization towards do a thing more than it.
Yourself can in addition create toward the These who are in just charge and talk to them toward do a little something regarding the situation. Persons as effectively as governments consist of arrive with choice protection tricks some of which incorporate labored and other individuals contain unsuccessful to meet up with the mounted objectives.
A single of this sort of methods in the direction of address our worthwhile animal species is reaching fresh material upon a positive species that possibly lacks more than enough details or no initiatives include been produced to find out the facts. Breeding software ought to be controlled. The greatest well known endangered animals in the global are dugongs, blue whales, tigers, ideal white sharks, cuvior's beaked whales, giant pandas, tigers, jaguars, one-horned rhinos and David deer.
It need to donate revenue towards establishments or firms whose main goal is guarding these endangered species; without the need of authorities support, it is difficult for this kind of businesses in direction of carry out their goals. All those that comprise not been sighted in just at bare minimum Fifty several years because of in direction of the truth of the matter that their very last member is regarded dead are essentially known as extinct.
Does it guidance endangered animals within just the serious experience and is it handy? The option is yes. The authorities does this via making use of nationwide firm expense Designs as properly as protection legislation. Likewise air pollution is another bring about for the decline.
Conservation signifies working with the organic and natural software in these a route that they by no means get rid of their natural quality. Unlike poaching, profit-oriented farming that includes been legalized Explanations an make improvements to inside of the amount of the endangered species.
A superior illustration is the increase of black as very well as white rhinoceros in the southern hemisphere whose population is made up of grown because of towards particular farming. Likewise the endangered crops are Venus's flytrap, silverswords, redwoods, knowlton cacti, Eastern sago fingers and Clean Zealand brush lilies.
Pets incorporate turn out to be endangered since of inhabitants progress. Even despite the fact that there comprise been guidelines creating the train illegal, the poachers carry on perpetuating their selfish objectives not knowing what style of disservice they are executing towards the biosphere. They include in addition most well-liked toward occur up with exceptional zones like conservatories where by the endangered animals can be secure by way of the authorities.
Maximum environment countries choose a great deal of gross sales versus confident animal species which are at the moment endangered by means of bettering human game brought pertaining to through an ever-increasing inhabitants. While one particular thinks of an endangered animal, it is a person that remaining threatened with extinction.
The governing administration should realize that some animal species are endangered and just take motion to go over them via serving to this kind of corporations. It is as well a direction of supporting the authorities defend this kind of animals maintaining within brain that the federal government includes a good deal upon its again.
With higher financial incentives to personal endangered animal farmers such as rewarding people having care of rhinos, it is almost certainly that poaching routines will transfer down. There are a variety of attributes each time it comes towards getting proactive.
There are lots of animals on the endangered species list including whales, turtles, and lions. When predators variation their habitats and looking strategies, they can wipe out a significant species populace. Poachers can much too cause the figures of this kind of pets to dwindle especially if they are staying sought right after for sale of their components or merchandise.
Nations that contain proficient pets indigenous towards their pieces getting to be endangered have location within Space some precautionary steps. World wide warming and other temperature variations have been acknowledged in direction of deem pets endangered. The endangered position is exactly where Individuals animals are harmless toward avoid extinction.
What can cause an animal in direction of be endangered? There are A few major Good reasons and People are adjustments inside of predator parameters, climate changes and too a general reduction in just their population. Moreover These must be proficient and developed informed regarding the ecosystem- the inter connection of the alternative pets and crops like humans.
Moreover development which include constructions won't be able to be erected within just spots considered towards be endangered species reserves. In the direction of commence with any poaching inside of a secure animal conservatory can add towards a heavy punishment via the legislation. It is a rather disappointed nation that comes with regards to in opposition to seeking and other models of killing of pets.
Lots of of the pets that are extinct have been really exceptional and had been fairly distinctive to appear to be at. Ecologists contain generally suggested strategies of preserving endangered species, yet hence minimal consists of been done by appropriate federal government.
One particular of the largest factors why optimum of our beneficial animal species are turning out to be extinct is poaching. Not merely is there killing of client animals however the total species is wiped out and that is tragic.
Sure species are presently extinct and the entire world will almost certainly never ever perspective them all over again. Endangered pets are these that employed towards be in major quantities within the wild still they comprise at present lost a substantial number of contributors.

Windows Vista Ultimate SP1 delayed
No support for 31 languages, customers told to play waiting game
By Kelly Fiveash 4 Mar 2008 at 14:56
Microsoft has admitted that service pack one (SP1) for its Ultimate edition of Windows Vista will not be made available to everyone in mid-March as originally planned, because of a delay with 31 of its language packs.
Vista product manager Nick White said in a blog post yesterday that Microsoft will now ship Vista Ultimate SP1 in two "waves", with the second one coming "later in 2008".
Customers running the "premium" version of the operating system on their computers in English, French, German, Japanese and Spanish will be able to get the service pack shortly, according to White.
But the remaining Vista Ultimate computers around the world will not receive the long-awaited update until the 31 language packs, that the software giant is presumably tweaking, are supported in SP1.
The 36 language packs are only available in Windows Vista Ultimate and Vista Ultimate 64-bit. SP1 was released to manufacturing on 4 February and is already available to MSDN subscribers.
White admitted that customers whose computers carry one of the 31 language packs affected will currently receive an error when trying to download SP1 from the Window Update website.
It reads: "Windows Vista Service Pack 1 cannot be installed on your computer because the language of Windows Vista you have installed is not supported or you have installed a language pack that is not supported.
"Windows Vista Service pack 1 can only be installed on computers running the English, French, German, Japanese and Spanish versions of Windows Vista or computers running only those language packs."
This latest Vista SP1 delay follows a number of cock-ups with third party security apps and utilities, and problems that forced the software giant to suspend distribution of its essential servicing stack KB937287 update, after customers complained that their PCs wouldn't boot up properly once it had been applied.
White says on his blog that Vista Ultimate users shouldn't worry. "The language packs are on their way. We will have more information on exactly when very shortly so stay tuned!" ®

Histone acetylation a half century later: the modest birth of epigenetics
Beatriz GT Pogo
This figure (from Pogo et al 1966) shows the time course experiment comparing incorporation of acetyl groups into histones and uridine into RNA. It can be seen that acetylation took place before RNA synthesis suggesting that changes in the interaction between histones in DNA preceded gene activity.
In 1964 I joined the laboratory of Cell Biology of Vincent G. Allfrey and Alfred E. Mirsky at the Rockefeller University as a post-doctoral fellow supported by a Damon Runyon International Fellowship.
Early that year Rosemary Faulkner had finished her Ph.D. thesis under Dr. Vincent Allfrey on histone acetylation in isolated thymus nuclei. Allfrey had observed a positive correlation between histone acetylation and RNA synthesis in isolated nuclear fractions, but the important question was if this phenomenon occurred in vivo.1 The hypothesis at that time was that histone acetylation would change the fine structure of chromatin, as a neutralization mechanism, thus derepressing DNA to serve as a template for RNA synthesis. I discussed with Allfrey what cell system was to be used. I had previously worked on (A) gene activation using induction of chloroplast differentiation by light, and also (B) the stimulation of mitosis in peripheral blood lymphocytes by mitogens. I suggested to Allfrey that we use the latter system to look for gene activation which in those days meant RNA synthesis, and simultaneously for histone acetylation. He was an intelligent, enthusiastic and knowledgeable investigator. He liked the idea – and I proceeded.
In New York at that time, human blood was easily purchased from seedy commercial blood banks before the New York Blood Center under better regulations was established. We separated mononuclear cells from other white blood cells and cultured these isolated mononuclear cells in the presence of phytohemoagglutinin (PHA), a plant mitogen. A burst of RNA synthesis took place after a few hours of incubation and mitosis occurred after 48-72 hours of culture. Histone acetylation was measured by 14C-acetate incorporation into the histones separated by electrophoresis, and RNA synthesis was independently measured by 14C-uridine uptake into isolated RNA. Both processes were shown to be stimulated after a short exposure to PHA. We also demonstrated that the 14C-acetate was incorporated as an acetyl group and was not converted to an amino acid, and that the so-called "arginine-rich histones" were most effectively acetylated. By pulse-labelling experiments we also showed that histone acetylation preceded RNA synthesis. These results were very exciting. The human blood provided a good start, but to do more biochemical work, it was necessary to have more cells with which to work. Pooling mononuclear preparations from different donors was out of the question because it meant introducing another uncontrolled factor. A postdoctoral fellow, whose name unhappily I do not recall, told me she was using equine white cells for her immunological work. The Rockefeller Foundation at Rockefeller University had a stable with a well-kept old police horse which was used to provide the laboratories with horse serum, then a common reagent used in tissue culture. That old horse gave us sufficient blood cells to allow the biochemical characterization of the system.
In 1966 we published the first paper on histone acetylation and RNA synthesis in equine lymphocytes stimulated by PHA.2 These observations were then extended to other system like rat liver regeneration.3,4 We also showed by autoradiography with Virginia Littau that during RNA synthesis in chromosomes of insect salivary glands there was acetylation of histones as well.5 In addition to investigating acetylation, Allfrey analyzed the phosphorylation and methylation of histones, as two of his students completed their doctoral dissertations on the subject. 6,7
In 1968, Gershey et al, published the identification of E-N-acetyl lysine in the f2a1 histone.8 Although we then realized the importance of changes in chromatin structure and gene de-repression, we did not think of the profound significance these early observations would have on future drug design and treatment.9 Nor did we realize that the field of Epigenetics had been born. I left Allfrey's lab with great regret in a moment of crisis, his separation from Alfred Mirsky after many years of collaboration. I also realized that the Rockefeller University was not then a likely place for a woman to make a career. The New York Public Health Research Institute – called, at that time, "little Rockefeller" because of the presence of so many graduates, postdocs, and faculty from Rockefeller University – offered an excellent scientific environment and opportunities. I left but I always missed those three years (and nine papers) of intense work in Allfrey's lab at the Rockefeller University and the exciting field of histone post-translation modifications. It was the unwritten but widely understood rule that after one left, one could not work on the subject of the laboratory where one had been trained.
Vincent Allfrey did continue to work on the subject and made important contributions to the field. Unfortunately, he died in 2002 before epigenetics became what it is today. The last time I saw him was at a conference in the Caspary Auditorium of Rockefeller University. He told me that he was writing a review and had looked into my old laboratory books and how good and clear were my protocols. It was very rewarding to be praised by my mentor decades later. A few months after, he died, but his legacy lives on.10

Not Your Average Joe's, Mellow Mushroom and Tara Thai on the way; Gap trims down and Gazette says goodbye
Not Your Average Joe's to open next month
Not Your Average Joe's, now under construction in the old Hamburger Hamlet space at Georgetown Square Shopping Center, will open in mid-July with a moderately priced menu of salads, steaks and seafood. "The decor will be a little more upscale than the one in Gaithersburg, since our look as a company is changing every few years," says Joe Harris, general manager of the new restaurant off Democracy and Old Georgetown Road. Harris' top picks from the menu: Cobb Salad ($14), Ahi Tuna Salad ($18), Grilled New York Strip Steak ($32), and the Rosemary Skewered Scallops shown here ($25). Not to mention the fresh-baked focaccia bread that you'll find at every table. "Sometimes people get upset because that bread is so good that they don't have room for other things," Harris chuckled.
Mellow Mushroom heads to Rockville
Mellow Mushroom, the Atlanta-based pizza chain that manages to blend '70s hippie culture with a kid-friendly atmosphere, will open its first Maryland location this winter at Rockville Town Square. The restaurant is taking over the former Oro Pomodoro space across from the concert stage and ice rink, as well as the adjacent storefront that once belonged to Potomac River Running. The menu will include calzones, hoagies, salads, craft beer and plenty of options for gluten-free and vegetarian diners. And unlike the upscale Oro Pomodoro, the setting will be "funky and very casual — a place where you can bring your family or your whole soccer team," says Danny Trehan, part of the D.C.-area franchise group that also owns Mellow Mushroom restaurants in Northern Virginia and Adams Morgan. The new pizzeria is one of several new restaurants heading to Rockville Town Square this year; click here for more in our June 4 edition.
The Gazette is gone — but count on Store Reporter for local news coverage
Like so many of of our readers, we were saddened to learn that The Gazette newspapers would be printing their last issues this week. Here at Store Reporter, we believe in the importance of local news coverage — even if it arrives in the form of a weekly email instead of a plastic-wrapped bundle at the foot of your driveway. We hope you'll continue to count on Store Reporter for the latest news on retail and restaurants in greater Rockville and Potomac. This summer we'll be taking some time off, with a scaled-back schedule of one issue per month until we resume our weekly updates in September. We'll also be posting to our Facebook page whenever something newsworthy happens. If you haven't already liked us on Facebook, click here to make sure you don't miss a beat.
Tara Thai to the mall in December
It looks like Tara Thai will open around Christmas at Westfield Montgomery Mall, where the company has finalized plans to take over a portion of the long-empty Legal Sea Foods space. Rich Amsellem of Streetsense, who brokered the deal for Tara Thai, says the atmosphere will be a little more relaxed than the chain's other locations, with "Thailand beach resort" decor and indoor/outdoor seating for 85 people. The mall is negotiating with another tenant to take the other half of the Legal space.
Gap trims down
This week Gap announced that it will close 175 underperforming U.S. locations, leaving some 500 regular Gap stores and 300 Gap Outlets across the country. No word yet on whether the closings will affect our area, where Gap and GapKids have a major presence at Westfield Montgomery Mall as well as a brand new location at Pike & Rose. Gap is one of several clothing retailers — including Aeropostale and Abercrombie & Fitch — that are closing stores even as they try to regain front-runner status with the fickle clothes-buying public. Several other chains, including Wet Seal and Caché, have gone out of business in recent months.

After working for hotels for over 10 years, she married another hotelier, and life (aka her new husband's job) took them to a small island in the British Virgin Islands. Island life was great, but the lack of opportunities (and work visas) for the wife of an expat allowed her to pursue her true passions—cooking and photography.

This works for me… There were things that were right and a few things to change, I would look at the Clockwork and Archi-lab nodes to see how they are working.
#to isolate the built in parameter we want, we first get all of them, then add the one which matches the name to our list.
Can i call out the next level without having to input the level from the node? First - I've pasted your code as I'm altering.
Then see further below for a version of my code I am trying to get to work. I guess I don't really understand the builtInParams part of your code.
I suspect that you might do the same with levels… use filtered element collector… (sort them by elevation?) get the level which matches the IN name… then get the next index on…?
@Daniel_Woodcock1 has great stuff on his website that might get you going? Maybe @kennyb6 has some time?
Just from a quick glance, the error is because wall.get_Parameter is a method, not a property. The difference is that methods are functions that require parentheses to call them while properties are just a property of the class and don't need parentheses.
Also important, you are turning the wall you just created into a Dynamo wrapped element before you try to call API functions onto it, which isn't allowed. Take out the .ToDSType(False) until after you are done modifying it.
See more here: https://github.com/DynamoDS/Dynamo/wiki/Python-0.6.3-to-0.7.x-Migration in the section Unwrapping and Wrapping.
Edit: Fixed the caps on WALL_HEIGHT_TYPE.
@Mark.Ackerley thanks for the referral. @kennyb6, Thank you for your time and looking over my code. You were right on the parentheses. I no longer get an error, but the wall is not extending to the 3rd floor.
See below for my code now. I'll keep messing with it.
That's good that the error is gone. If there are no more errors on it, but it still isn't doing what you expect, then this is where testing each input starts. Check the ElementId(levelOut).Name and see if it is the right level.
where levels is the input of all levels from Dynamo and elemLevel is the current level of the element. Keep in mind that all of the levels are still wrapped so if you are trying to compare it to an element you are making using API, you might need to UnwrapElement(sorts) first.
Thanks @kennyb6 - I'm working through it but did not solve the issue.
I am trying to understand the properties accessible to Levels - http://www.revitapidocs.com/2016/1c606456-b458-803d-15bc-23052a50e859.htm - ElementId(levelOut).Name seems to make sense per api docs.
http://www.revitapidocs.com/2016/0ce4c555-4cee-f5fd-2e84-43cacf34ac5c.htm - helped creating the height of the wall - unconnected to a floor.
I'm also looking at Clockwork & Archi-lab nodes - a lot to wade through.

Spotted: Iceland's orangutan appears in Birmingham
The ultra-lifelike animatronic ape was in London last week to raise awareness of rainforest deforestation

The animatronic ape appeared in Birmingham (Image: Iceland)
A couple of weeks have passed since Iceland launched their banned Christmas advert but their campaign continued and has arrived in Birmingham today.
Londoners were left stunned last week after seeing a distressed orangutan clinging to a Christmas tree and now the ape has appeared at Birmingham's Iceland store on High Street, walking up and down the aisles.
The displaced ape was part of the supermarket chain's Christmas campaign, and staged using sophisticated animatronics to highlight the retailer offering the choice of Christmas without palm oil.
It follows the news that Iceland's Christmas advert was banned from being shown on TV because it was seen to be supporting a political issue.
Watch: Iceland's banned TV Christmas advert
The short film, Rang-tan, tells the story of rainforest destruction caused by palm oil production, and its devastating impact on the critically endangered orangutan.
Iceland decided to go against the trend of product-led adverts in favour of a campaign to raise awareness of the impact palm oil has on the rainforests.
It was hoped that the advert would improve shoppers' understanding of the widespread rainforest destruction for palm oil production, which appears in more than 50% of all supermarket products.
Earlier this year, Iceland committed to remove palm oil from all its own label food by the end of 2018.
Iceland is selling official Greggs Festive Bakes at ludicrously low price
A team of leading special effects artists spent months designing and building the ultra-realistic animatronic replica orangutan, which is controlled both remotely and via a specialist puppeteer who has spent years studying the movements of the species to fine-tune their skills.
The campaign has received mass public support and more than 15 million people have now watched the advert on Facebook, with it gaining the support of numerous high-profile figures including James Corden and Stephen Fry.
A petition to remove the ban on Iceland's Christmas advert has also gained almost 1,000,000 signatures to date.

Zinkcarbonat ist in der Chemie ein Zinksalz der Kohlensäure (Carbonate).

Vorkommen
In der Natur kommt Zinkcarbonat als Smithsonit (Zinkspat) vor.

Gewinnung und Darstellung
Zinkcarbonat mit der chemischen Zusammensetzung ZnCO3 entsteht als weißer Niederschlag bei der Vereinigung von Zinksalz- und Soda-Lösung.

Es entsteht ebenfalls bei der Reaktion von Zinksalzen mit Kaliumhydrogencarbonat.

Eigenschaften
Es handelt sich um ein weißes, in Säuren lösliches Pulver, das beim Glühen in Zinkoxid überführt werden kann (Brennen unter Abspaltung von Kohlenstoffdioxid):

In starken Laugen kann Zinkcarbonat komplex als farbloses Tetrahydroxozinkat gelöst werden (Komplexbildungsreaktion). Es kristallisiert im trigonalen Kristallsystem und entwickelt meist rhomboedrische Kristalle in überwiegend blauer oder grüner Farbe (auch farblose, weiße, lichtgelbe oder braune Kristalle sind bekannt).
Chemisch gesehen ähneln die Eigenschaften von Zinkcarbonat denen des Kalks (Calciumcarbonat), jedoch bilden Zink-II-Salzlösungen im Unterschied zu Calciumverbindungen Sulfid-Niederschläge, jedoch keine Niederschläge bei Zugabe von Schwefelsäure.
Wässrige Suspensionen von Zinkcarbonat reagieren alkalisch.

Verwendung
Zinkcarbonat wird als Pigment verwendet und ist in pharmazeutischen Zubereitungen enthalten. Es wird weiterhin zur Herstellung von Zinkoxid-Pigmenten, für die Absorption von Schwefelwasserstoff bei der Spülung von Tiefbohrungen und in der Textilfärberei/Textildruck verwendet. Daneben wird es als Aktivator für die Schwefel- und Thiuramvulkanisation von transluzenten und semitransparenten Gummiartikeln, als Vulkanisiermittel in carboxylierten Kautschuken und Aktivator in Latextauchartikeln verwendet.

Der Schutz vor Korrosion, den eine Feuerverzinkung bietet, beruht auf der Bildung schützender Deckschichten, die durch Witterungseinflüsse im Verlaufe der Zeit auf der Oberfläche feuerverzinkter Stahlteile entstehen. Diese Deckschichten bestehen überwiegend aus Zinkcarbonat.

My husband and I love the Korean Beef I make in the slow cooker, but when I spotted my local butcher had an offer on rump steak, I decided to make a very similar dish with this but adding some vegetables for a change.
I serve my Korean Beef with rice noodles but decided coconut rice would be the perfect accompaniment for this dish.
The rump steak worked well and tasted absolutely delicious. Not quite so fall-apart tender as sirloin but still very tender and succulent. The sauce tasted quite rich, spicy and full of flavour but not too 'hot'.
Slice the steak into thin pieces and place in a slow cooker.
Mix together the stock, Tamari, sugar, oil, sriracha, garlic, ginger and onions and pour over the beef, making sure the beef is well coated in the mix.
Cook on LOW for about 3 hours or until the beef is tender.
Meanwhile, toast the sesame seeds in a dry fry pan until golden.
Mix the arrowroot or cornflour with a little of the liquid from the slow cooker and return it to the beef together with the broccoli florets. Mix well together.
Cook for a further 20 minutes until the broccoli is just tender.
Serve with coconut rice and sprinkle with sesame seeds and sliced spring onions.

Thank you for the comment. I hope you try the recipe and enjoy it.
What is coconut sugar? Can you substitute regular granulated?
Hi – Coconut sugar is a sugar produced from the sap of cut flower buds of the coconut palm. I try to avoid refined sugar where possible so use this instead, but I am sure 'ordinary' sugar would work just as well – perhaps brown rather than granulated.

HILLSDALE — As the Hillsdale College football team capped spring practice with its annual spring game on Saturday, new faces were everywhere.
Gone are record setting offensive stars Chance Stewart and Trey Brock, defensive stalwarts Wyatt Batdorff and Jay Rose, and a host of other contributors from last year's GMAC title squad that will go down as one of the best in program history.
That's not to say that the Chargers are doomed to take a big step backwards in 2019 — but it does mean that Hillsdale will need to find new standouts on the field to keep the momentum of last season's run rolling.
1.Quarterback position is up for grabs.
While there are several massive shoes that need filling, perhaps none are bigger than Stewart's, as the Chargers must replace someone who directed their offensive attack for four seasons at a record-setting pace.
Right now the battle for QB1 is wide open, as four players — junior Ty Cox, sophomore Ross Feldpausch and redshirt freshmen Joe Bentley and Luke Keller — saw relatively equal snaps in the spring game.
Keller was the most impressive, stringing together a deep ball fade to Alec Gimapietro and a touchdown throw to tight end Martin Petersen on a crossing route for the game's longest touchdown drive.
But he also had his fair share of mistakes as well, and Bentley had an impressive touchdown pass of his own, while Cox and Feldpausch each flashed running ability that could add a new dynamic to Hillsdale's attack.
Whoever gets the job, it probably won't be decided until fall, and close to the opener against Michigan Tech.
One area where the Chargers have experience returning offensively is at running back, where senior tailbacks David Graham and Christian Shepler return after combining for over 1,100 yards and 18 touchdowns on the ground in 2018.
Hillsdale also looks forward to the return of Joe Reverman, who was the GLIAC freshman of the year in 2015 but missed most of the last two seasons due to injuries, and have a breakout candidate in sophomore Josef Hissom.
With a new quarterback under center, the run game increases in importance for the Chargers in 2019, and Graham looked ready for a heavier load in the spring game, with several impressive runs.
For the last four seasons, receiver Trey Brock was the dominant piece in Hillsdale's passing game.
With Brock gone, Hillsdale won't look to one player to replace all that production.
Junior Konnor Maloney, last year's No. 2 receiver, was also out for spring, which gave Hillsdale a chance to evaluate some new targets.
Along with Petersen's touchdown catch, Alec Foos also reeled in a scoring grab, and Giampietro also flashed potential as a deep threat.
"The passing game is going to be a little bit by committee, because it's rare to get that much from one player," Otterbein said. "Konnor obviously has a lot of experience, and we're looking forward to him taking another step.
While the offensive losses are more heralded, losing players like Batdorff, Rose and Zach VanValkenburg on the defensive side of the ball is no small thing, either.
But Hillsdale can lean on decorated returners Dan Shanley and Nate Jones in the linebacking corps, and Jason McDonough and Drake Temple in the secondary.
The unit clearly showed potential in the spring game, getting several stops and forcing a strip-sack of Keller that led to a fumble recovery.
But it also struggled to stop the run at times, a sign that more work and growth will be needed in the fall to round into the type of unit that could lift an inexperienced offense into GMAC title contention and a return trip to the Division II playoffs.

I saw it in an old recipe and I have to say it makes a big difference!!
Oh my! This looks incredibly delicious!!!
I love your version of this classic!
Hehe I don't know if I deserve to take the credit.. I have just mixed and matched some ideas 🙂 Happy holidays Annika!
When I was living in Brittany, it was our post party soup ( essential on January 1st 🙂 ) Wonderful as always!
I've never made French onion soup, although I eat a lot of it when I go skiing, it's perfect for keeping your energy levels up in the afternoon.
mmm. . . French onion soup is one of my favorites.
Yummmmm, looking at your photos reminds me that I haven't had an onion soup in ages! Beautifully composed and photographed … that sourdough with gruyere looks heavenly! Have bookmarked this to make soon.
I made it !!!! I made the freaking soup with all your ingredients, the people who ate said it was great…. go figure with me, but I think I got this this thing.


The Merc with a Mouth is back... nearly.
It's fair to say that Deadpool did rather well at the box office, shattering box office records and raking in over $754 million since its release back in February.
While Ryan Reynolds and director Tim Miller were already set to return in a sequel, we now have a couple more details on when things will be getting underway for Deadpool 2.
Speaking to Collider ahead of the Saturn Awards in California, the film's producer, Simon Kinberg, hinted that things could be kicking off early in 2017.
"The guys, [screenwriters Paul] Wernick and Rhett [Reese], are working on the script, and we hope to have the script very soon.
"We hope to shoot the movie some time at the beginning of next year."
A post-credits scene from the February release has already hinted the follow-up could be based around the introduction of Cable, the time-travelling son of X-Men member Cyclops.
The film does not yet have a release date, but if you're looking for a quick Deadpool fix, the Merc with a mouth recently popped up in a trailer for X-Men in Japan, because of course he did.
Could Ryan Reynolds' Deadpool work in the MCU?

WALTER Fourie of Mondale High School was a brilliant sprint champion at Western Province Senior Schools Sports Union (WPSSSU) and South African Senior Schools Sports Association (SASSSA) level.
SASSSA, by virtue of its strong teachers' base throughout the country, played a pivotal role at national level in bringing the best of the sport to Griqualand West, Transvaal, Natal, Eastern Cape, Boland and Western Province.
Few could run with the ease and fluency in the way Walter Fourie sprinted down the track.
Fourie was the SASSSA boys under 16 sprint champion in 1989 – the height of the golden period of athletics for Mondale situated in Portland, Mitchell's Plain, a sprawling coloured township built on sand dunes on the False Bay Coast – about 30km from Cape Town central.
Fourie was known for his natural, regal and economical style of sprinting.
Few could run with the ease and fluency in the way Fourie sprinted down the track.
He was part of the Mondale athletics machine who had won the A-Section in 1989 for the second time and the Champion of Champions for the third time as the school moved towards dominating schools' athletics in Western Province until 1992 when schools' sport became fragile in the face of sports unity which caused the implosion of school and community sport across race and class which are still being felt today.
Walter Fourie passed on in September 2016. He was 43.
* In the early days (1940s-1970s), Griqualand West was a major union in athletics with much of the SA Championships at club and school level being held at the De Beers Stadium in Kimberley. The SA's were held on or near Van Riebeeck Day, 6 April with much fanfare and sponsorship from Sir policy of non-collaborationand, later Harry Oppenheimer.
Coal-mining magnate C.H. Beck – the father of the well-known Graham Beck stud farmer, mining magnate, and winemaker – was also a keen sponsor in 1953.
The president of the Griqualand West Coloured Amateur Athletic Club (not union) was Mr J.W. Orr.
The president of the Griqualand West Amateur Athletic and Cycling Union was Mr A Moses. Moses is not to be confused with Alex Moses, a top distance runner in the 1950s and 1960s.
The president of the South African Amateur Athletic and Cycling Board of Control was Mr W.C. Meyer.
All of them, and more, presented messages of support and well wishes in the official 1953 programme of the South African Amateur Athletic and Cycling Board of Control which contained 54 pages.
South African Amateur Athletic and Cycling Board of Control was established in 1946.
Towards the 1970s, with the policy of non-collaboration instituted by the South African Council on Sport (Sacos), an anti-apartheid sports movement, all of the above had changed in one fell swoop.

S.F. startup links travelers, hosts

For $75 a night, travelers can book a private bedroom and bathroom with a king-size bed and views of the San Francisco Bay. But it's not your typical overnight accommodations.
Guests share the home of Opal Essence, an artist in Visitacion Valley. On the outside are two prominent murals, one with a big whale and the other in honor of an early lesbian activist who had once lived there.
Inside, Essence is renting a room she named Post-Apocalyptic Retreat, a reflection of the home's rich history, such as surviving the 1906 earthquake, and her hope that it offers a safe haven for the people who stay there.
"There's no spa, but there is a calming quality," she said. "It is like a sacred space on the hillside."
Essence's Post-Apocalyptic Retreat is one of more than 400 places in the city for rent through Airbnb ( www.airbnb.com), a San Francisco startup that connects travelers with local hosts. Through the Web site, hosts can offer their spare bedroom, in-law apartment or just the couch in their living room for a set fee.
This online marketplace for spaces is yet another example of how the Internet is disrupting a traditional industry, in this case, the $24 billion vacation rentals business.
Through sites such as Craigslist and VRBO.com, or Vacation Rentals By Owner, adventurous tourists have already been able to find a place to rent or swap online. But Airbnb takes it a step further. The site handles the transaction, with travelers booking a place as though they were reserving a room at a hotel, by plopping down their credit card.
At the same time, it also borrows elements from social networking sites such as Facebook, with hosts and travelers posting profiles of themselves, sharing who they are, friends and past guests who recommend them, and photos and descriptions of their space.
Users range from families with young children to business travelers and conference-goers. About a quarter of the users are age 40 and older. More women than men use the site.
Among the thousands of available accommodations in nearly 3,000 cities and 119 countries, the most exotic pickings include an igloo in the Swiss Alps for $294 a night, a tree house in Puerto Rico for $150 a night and a room in a Yorkshire castle for $2,000 a night.
For the budget-conscious, there's also an air mattress, sleeping bag and fluffy pillow available for $25 a night in an apartment a few blocks away from Fisherman's Wharf and North Beach.
"It's low end and high end. We're like the eBay of space," said CEO and co-founder Brian Chesky.
Chesky, Joe Gebbia and Nathan Blecharczyk founded the site in October 2007, inspired after Chesky and Gebbia rented an air bed in their apartment to a desperate conference attendee looking for a place to stay in the booked-out city. The 11-employee startup received $20,000 in funding from Y-Combinator last year and has been profitable since last spring. It charges the host a standard 3 percent fee and it charges the traveler 6 to 12 percent on top of the leasing fee.
Convention boost
The Web site first put itself on the map in 2008 during the presidential campaign. During the Democratic National Convention in Denver, thousands of supporters converged on the city and there weren't enough hotel rooms to accommodate all of them. Airbnb stepped in with an alternative: staying in someone's home.
The bleak economy has also helped boost the site. Time and again, homeowners and renters have taken a chance and put up a bedroom or living room couch to rent as a way to offset their mortgage, rent or bills.
Essence, who also offers two smaller "cubby spaces" for $30 a night each, said she hopes to be able to cover her bills by letting out her rooms.
But opening up her home has also become part of an experience for her. Through Airbnb, Essence, a former hotel manager, has hosted about two dozen out-of-towners, from a New York children's book author to a baker from Minneapolis who wanted to sample San Francisco's gourmet food. Each day during her stay, the baker would tour San Francisco restaurants, bringing back bread to share and recipes that she tested in Essence's kitchen.
"By the time she left, I felt like she was a sister of mine," Essence said.
Only once has she had a questionable guest. He wasn't inappropriate or improper - he just didn't click with her or her home. He kept asking her about sports and local sports bars, a topic that Essence has no interest in, and ended up staying just one night.
Erik Michaels-Ober estimates he made about $4,000 last year just renting out an air mattress in his South of Market loft, close to Moscone Center. In one instance, his renters didn't even stay the night. They just wanted to borrow his space for a photo shoot.
Last month, Michaels-Ober, co-founder of 140 Proof, a Twitter advertising platform, also turned around and tapped Airbnb to find a romantic getaway for him and his girlfriend. Through Airbnb, he booked a private cottage in Occidental. Their hosts were helpful, drawing them a map and pointing them in the direction of a good hike and helping them make restaurant reservations.
"It's a more unique experience than staying at a hotel or bed and breakfast," he said. "It's a really good opportunity to meet people and talk to locals, and hear what to do in an area."
Hosts screen guests
Indeed, it's the social networking aspect of the site that helps keep its users in check. Hosts are able to screen potential guests before renting their space, and have 32 hours to decline a reservation request. Guests, meanwhile, can write reviews about their experience. Like Facebook, users can join groups, including university alumni networks, and use it as a filter.
Michaels-Ober compares the experience to having an occasional roommate.
"Maybe I've just gotten lucky, but everyone has been A+," he said of his guests. "I think most people are regular people like you and me."

Most of the data published in this annex have been provided by national correspondents of the OECD Expert Group on Migration appointed by the OECD Secretariat with the approval of the authorities of member countries. Consequently, these data are not necessarily based on common definitions. Countries under review in this annex are OECD countries for which data are available, as well as the Russian Federation. The OECD Expert Group on Migration has no authority to impose changes in data collection procedures. It is an observatory which, by its very nature, has to use existing statistics. However, it does play an active role in suggesting what it considers to be essential improvements in data collection and makes every effort to present consistent and well-documented statistics.
The purpose of this annex is to describe the "immigrant" population (generally the foreign-born population). The information gathered concerns the flows and stocks of the total immigrant population as well as the acquisition of nationality. These data have not been standardised and are therefore not fully comparable across countries. In particular, the criteria for registering persons in population registers and the conditions for granting residence permits, for example, vary across countries, which means that measurements may differ greatly even if the same type of source is being used.
In addition to the problem of the comparability of statistics, there is the difficulty of the very partial coverage of unauthorised migrants. Part of this population may be counted in censuses. Regularisation programmes, when they exist, make it possible to identify and enumerate a far from negligible fraction of unauthorised immigrants after the fact. In terms of measurement, this makes it possible to better measure the volume of the foreign-born population at a given time, even if it is not always possible to determine the year these immigrants entered the country.
Each series in the annex is preceded by an explanatory note concerning the data presented. A summary table then follows (series A, giving the total for each destination country), and finally the tables by nationality or country of birth, as the case may be (series B). At the end of each series, a table provides the sources and notes for the data presented in the tables for each country.
The tables provide annual series covering the period 2009-19 or 2010-20.
The series A tables are presented in alphabetical order by the name of the country. In the other tables, nationalities or countries of birth are ranked by decreasing order of frequency for the last year available.
In the tables by country of origin (series B) only the 15 main countries are shown. "Other countries" is a residual calculated as the difference between the total foreign or foreign-born population and the sum for all countries indicated in the table. For some countries, data are not available for all years and this is reflected in the residual entry of "Other countries". This must be borne in mind when interpreting changes in this category.
There is no table by nationality for the series on outflows of the foreign population (series A.2). These statistics, as well as data by gender are available online (http://www.oecd.org/els/mig/keystat.htm).
The rounding of data cells may cause totals to differ slightly from the sum of the component cells.
The symbol ".." used in the tables means that the data are not available.
Figures in italic are estimated by the Secretariat.
OECD countries seldom have tools specifically designed to measure the inflows and outflows of the foreign population, and national estimates are generally based either on population registers or residence permit data. This note describes more systematically what is measured by each of the sources used.
Flows derived from population registers
Population registers can usually produce inflow and outflow data for both nationals and foreigners. To register, foreigners may have to indicate possession of an appropriate residence and/or work permit valid for at least as long as the minimum registration period. Emigrants are usually identified by a stated intention to leave the country, although the period of (intended) absence is not always specified.
In population registers, departures tend to be less well recorded than arrivals. Indeed, the emigrant who plans to return to the host country in the future may be reluctant to inform about his departure to avoid losing rights related to the presence on the register. Registration criteria vary considerably across countries; in particular the minimum duration of stay for individuals to be registered ranges from three months to one year, which poses major problems of international comparisons. For example, in some countries, register data cover many temporary migrants, in some cases including asylum seekers when they live in private households (as opposed to reception centres or hostels for immigrants) and international students.
Flows derived from residence and/or work permits
Statistics on permits are generally based on the number of permits issued during a given period and depend on the types of permits used. The so-called "settlement countries" (Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the United States) consider as immigrants persons who have been granted the right of permanent residence, and this right is often granted upon arrival. Statistics on temporary immigrants are also published in this annex for these countries. In the case of France, the permits covered are those valid for at least one year (excluding students).
Another characteristic of permit data is that flows of nationals are not recorded. Some flows of foreigners may also not be recorded, either because the type of permit they hold is not included in the statistics or because they are not required to have a permit (freedom of movement agreements). In addition, permit data do not necessarily reflect physical flows or actual lengths of stay since: i) permits may be issued overseas but individuals may decide not to use them, or delay their arrival; ii) permits may be issued to persons who have in fact been resident in the country for some time, the permit indicating a change of status.
Flows estimated from specific surveys
Ireland provides estimates based on the results of Quarterly National Household Surveys and other sources such as permit data and asylum applications. These estimates are revised periodically on the basis of census data. Data for the United Kingdom are based on a survey of passengers entering or exiting the country by plane, train or boat (International Passenger Survey). One of the aims of this survey is to estimate the number and characteristics of migrants. The survey is based on a random sample of approximately one out of every 500 passengers. The figures were revised significantly following the latest census in each of these two countries, which seems to indicate that these estimates do not constitute an "ideal" source either. Australia and New Zealand also conduct passenger surveys which enable them to establish the length of stay on the basis of migrants' stated intentions when they enter or exit the country.
