Incubator PMC members, please add your handle on the iPMC Reviewers: line if you have taken the time and accept the report as presented. E.g. iPMC Reviewers: noel, wrowe.
DO NOT modify reviewed reports, please; add further Q & A after the crux of the original report. This makes it simpler to preserve accepted reports.
In addition to the individual projects, the Incubator is reviewing its policy on Maven repository artifacts. Currently, Incubator artifacts for Maven are required to be placed in a separate repository, the goal being to ensure that users are not "accidental tourists", but have agreed to use Incubator artifacts. Apparently, we're not quite getting what we want from this approach, due to how Maven works, so we're revisiting the requirement, and will likely drop the separate repository. Perhaps we can use artifact signing to address the matter in a future version of Maven. Likewise, there seems to be a consensus to move normally distributed (non-Maven) artifacts into the mirrored ASF repository, under dist/incubator/, with the path, the artifact names, and the disclaimer all clearly labelling the artifacts as being in the Incubator.
There appears to be some community tension in the Tuscany project, but the PMC consensus is that the Mentors are working on it, so we're going to let it work itself out for now.
Heraldry has had issues because of a vendor deciding that they didn't like having to open up to community development after all. Work is underway to reconstitute the project without them. The heraldry-dev@ archives document the events and process.
The Trinidad community was working over the past three month on several topics, like getting Trinidad stable and continuing the work for a JSF 1.2 compliant component lib.
Portal support landed on the trunk, contributed by Scott O'Bryan. Support for much improved dialogs came from Danny Robinson, and is gestating on a branch. 50 user reported issues were resolved in this period. The quality of the JSF 1.2 branch continued to solidify.
One of the items we are most proud of is the fact that we released a 1.0.0-incubating version of our Maven2 plugins and began preparations to release the CORE of Trinidad, the JSF components (for JSF 1.1).
jukka: Things to do before graduation?
answer: we are currently checking the check list and "missing things". Please see the dev list.
yoavs: seems to me that mailing list traffic this month is drastically lower than previous months.
answer: in march: user and dev lists are on a *regular base*. Feb was much higher in DEV, that's right.
Finished the transition from Hibernate to OpenJPA. This is almost done now with most of our scenarios working perfectly. We have to thanks the OpenJPA guys for that!
A lot of efforts on reliability and performance, plus a few additional features here and there, like improved JBI support (in addition to Axis2).
The user mailing-list has definitely been picking up, with more and more interesting questions.
Making an incubator release, which should be able to complete this trimester finally (and should help us for the next point).
Attracting more committers to encourage diversity.
Mohammad Nour (voted in last reporting cycle) finally got his iCLA approved and will be getting his well-earned commit.
Work on an OpenEJB Eclipse plugin was launched and is generated lot's of excitement in the community.
This is the OpenJPA status report for the board for the three month period ending Mar 2007.
OpenJPA made good progress this quarter in all areas. The project has many active committers all driving toward improving functionality, stability, performance, and usability.
OpenJPA has met all of the technical requirements for graduation from incubation, and is now waiting for the community to feel ready. It is not clear whether the destination should be a TLP or a sub-project of another. This discussion has not been started yet. Well, I guess it just has.
Development continues on the 0.9.7 release, which will contain many bug fixes and performance improvements. Kevin Sutter has been volunteered to cut the release once we decide there is enough done on the list.
JIRA now contains numerous proposed bug fixes and feature enhancements, tentatively assigned to release buckets.
Three new PPMC members were added (Kevin Sutter, Marc Prud'hommeaux, and Abe White).
Making sure we are comfortable with the working relationship between Qpid and the AMQP Working Group.
The whole project has not gone through release review and the license files and notices need to be checked for items not in M1. All areas will be done for M2.
We have migrated our build system from ant to maven.
Development has been moving forward. with improvements in memory footprint management, passing the JMS TCK in with the java broker.
During the next period we plan on improving the stability of all language variants.
River is aimed at the development and advancement of the Jini technology core infrastructure. Jini technology is a service oriented architecture that defines a programming model which both exploits and extends Java technology to enable the construction of secure, distributed systems which are adaptive to change.
jukka: It's taking some time for the initial codebases to be submitted. Any blockers in the process?
TripleSoup will be an RDF store, tooling to work with that database, and a REST web interface to talk to that database using SPARQL, implemented as an apache webserver module.
A Wicket tutorial will be given at apachecon europe.
Acquired CLA's for component/code contributions for 3 persons.
Replacement of License headers in source files complete, created a unit test that checks this for all projects.
Atlassian bamboo is running builds for Wicket at a private server, has raised interest with other projects.
We are trying to track down / re-do the paperwork (Software Grant) for donation of WSDL4J from IBM. WSDL4J is an SF.NET project under CPL 1.0 for the original WSDL 1.1 spec. Some of the code in woden was borrowed by the developers which is natural since woden implements WSDL 2.0 spec.
yoavs: how long has Woden been incubation? How's the community doing: any new committers, contributors, or PPMC members? When's a release going to happen?

Q: Redis caching - how to avoid race conditions? I want to cache DB queries using redis. For now pseudo code in single API endpoint looks like this:
GET /data

*

*Check if object is in REDIS cache (by cacheKey)

*If it is in cache just return it to client

*If it is not in cache, then fetch data from DB

*Write data to REDIS cache (at cacheKey)

*Return data to client

I am caching objets that don't change often so I set expiration to 24h for example. The problem is when I want to update such object. The pseudo code looks like this:
PUT /data

*

*Update data in DB

*Write data to cache (or just set cache to null / delete form cache)

The problem is that after new data has been written to cache (or cache has been deleted) then still GET /data can overwrite new data in cache by old data. This happens when point 4 form GET /data is executed just after point 2 from PUT /data.
Is there any mechanism that will prevent overwriting new data with old data in cache?

A: The NX approach as @hobbs had suggested still has a race condition. I'd add to it using WATCH/MULTI/EXEC blocks around your GET workflow for transactional-like behavior.
With NX-only approach, there's still a chance that between 3 and 4, a PUT will get in the way.

A: In the case where the PUT puts the fresh data in the cache at the same time as it puts it in the database (write-through cache), you can use SET / HSET when writing to the cache from your PUT, and SETNX / HSETNX when writing to the cache from your GET. Since the GET is only going to write to the cache if the key doesn't exist, normally a SETNX will succeed. But if someone else (possibly a PUT) came along and set the key in the meantime, the SETNX will fail because the key already exists, and you'll get the result you want.
In the case where the PUT just deletes the data in cache to be repopulated by the next GET, I don't think you can provide any better guarantee than you already have. The data will live for one expiration time after it was retrieved from the database, which isn't strictly wrong, it's just worse than you would like.

Francie + Colten
Travis Sherman
Francie and Colten are the couple that are just meant to be together. They have known each other for so long that everything just came naturally the day of their wedding. I met with Colten last year when we first started talking about the wedding and it was very evident that he was passionate and knew exactly what he wanted, so before I even met Francie I knew that she was going to be something special and she certainly didn't let us down. The word that was repeated over and over throughout the day was "Sassy" and it was spot on. A lot of people would think being sassy is a negative attribute but it was her sassiness that Colten was attracted to and oddly enough made her very approachable. The two of them connected on a level that only a couple that truly knew each other could, and their new life together is certainly never going to have a dull moment.
Nestled on highway 112 in Elm Springs is the beautiful venue "The Barn at the Springs". It is unique in the fact that this barn offers a rustic feel to any event. From the pastures, to the fields, and even the small pond, it offers a getaway from the monotony of everyday life and growing cities around us. We have shot several weddings at "The Barn at the Springs" and every time something new gets us excited to shoot there again. The bridal quarters are tucked away with elegant golds and big mirrors to meet all bridal party needs. You can chose many different locations throughout the property to do the wedding ceremony itself, inside, outside, there's always a way to customize your wedding day at "The Barn at the Springs".
As always our day began at 9am and we were very excited to get underway. We have made some big upgrades to our equipment since the last time we were able to shoot at "The Barn at the Springs" including slow motion, and our new drone. So we immediately got to work. The shots were absolutely incredible and you could really see from the aerial shots that spring is well underway. Francie and Colten arrived and their bridal party was absolutely incredible. They were a lot of fun to work with. It always helps when they are lively and humorous - it resonates a lot better on camera and doesn't look forced. France and Colten chose to bypass the typical first look which is always interesting because you know that moment when the groom first sees that bride will be an emotional moment. Instead they wrote each other letters. I always love shooting this moment because its so honest. It's very difficult to tell someone how you really feel face to face, but to have the time to gather and write your thoughts down makes a world of difference. Over 250 people filed in for the ceremony which took place outside as the sun was setting behind them. You couldn't plan for better timing. Golden hour hit as she walked down the aisle and as I said before, that first moment when he saw her was priceless.
The reception was nothing short of incredible. They opened the main barn doors which allowed the night to creep in to the reception area and a significant amount space was created on the dance floor. Of course their first dance was elegant and mesmerizing, mostly because Colten was actually a great dancer - very rare to see from a groom. The festivities, however, really kicked off after the Father Daughter Dance which went from an elegant song of "I loved her first" to a party in a matter of seconds when "Play that funky music" kicked in. The rest of the night was fast paced with various different moments that kept the party rolling. Of course the bouquet toss, and garter toss were a hit, the cake was a treasured moment (she smashed it in his face - spoiler alert) and even a sorority song from her sisters to help wrap up the night. I have been shooting for 11 years now and I have to say that the exit was a first for me. It ended with the typical line of sparklers out the front doors to help see them off, but there was one last surprise waiting for all the guests. Since Colten was also a fireman, a giant red firetruck waited at the end and both Francie and Colten hopped on the back and hitched a ride out as the red lights faded in to the night.
From every wedding I ever do I always learn something new that I can incorporate in to either the next wedding I shoot, or even in to my own personal life. So what was it that I walked away with from this wedding with? Well, I learned that true love is more than just the "fluff" of everyday life, it's really knowing someone for who they really are. For loving them for their "Sassiness" or loving them for being a "Hard working, country boy, people lover". That's the type of love that will stand the test of time. Also, if you want to look like a real badass, it helps to ride away on the back of a firetruck - just saying.
These two had love written all over them and I was so thrilled to be able to be there to capture these precious moments forever. Congratulations Francie and Colten, thank you for allowing us to be a part of your day.

A Great Gift for a Football Fanatic
So they go to each game, realize all the football tattle, and never miss an issue of Pro Football Weekly. They've even got their preferred group's logo imprinted on their underwear and a football, marked by their preferred cooperative person.
Do you know somebody who reveres football like it's a religion? Is the wonderful game an immeasurably significant issue to them? Does nothing satisfy them more on a Saturday than viewing the footie, throughout the day, either at home or in the bar with the fellows?
Relentless, elating andประวัตินักเตะไทย loaded with shocks, it's hard not to perceive any reason why football's the most watched sport on earth, and why it's one of the most famous leisure activities. It's a public fixation and a game that joins individuals from varying backgrounds.
While fans simply consider football to be a lifestyle, for a few of us, it's the worst thing about it and drives us totally loopy. For those of you who don't have a similar degree of zeal as your accomplice, companion or relative for this much-cherished ball game, it very well may be precarious to recognize what to get them, particularly on the off chance that they have everything as of now, from the most recent unit to caps and scarves embellished with their preferred group. And all you get when you ask them what they need is "anything Arsenal" or "something Man U".
Fortunately, there are a lot of football blessings thoughts accessible on the web. Despite the fact that the high road blessing shops may look alluring, you might need to consider something somewhat extraordinary, something that shows you've placed a touch of thought into the present. What's more, here's your answer: customized football books. Presto!
Incredibly famous, these endowments will be an outright champ with the football devotee in your life. Complete with paper cuttings and articles on all the grand crossroads in their football crew's set of experiences, these football club books can be customized with any name in gold lettering on the front, making a genuinely fabulous blessing.
Regardless of whether he's a Gunners fan, a Bhoys fan, a Red Devils fan or a Hammers fan, these customized football endowments will satisfy any individual who's over the top about the game; they'll read about their top group's rich history through paper inclusion, composed by journalists who were available at the match around then, including the celebrated League and Cup wins, significant games and the stars themselves – at various times. These accounts draw from the UK's biggest paper file of the most recent 100 years, so the peruser can get a genuine vibe for the state of affairs to help bring their recollections alive.
From Liverpool football books, to Arsenal football books, to Man United football books, to Chelsea football books, these ravishing hand-made leatherette blessings will revive those great games. Perhaps they need to recall Arsenal's incredible win against Chelsea… Owen's objective that won Liverpool the FA Cup… the second Alex Ferguson was named as the new Old Trafford director… at the point when Chelsea caught the League Cup and turned into the 'Chelsea Champs' following 50 in-radiant years as Football's 'chuckling boys'…
The fortunate beneficiary will have the option to behold back to the highs and lows, within stories and the tattle in an engaging and edifying manner with these football books!

Google has been very playful universe focused on Android in 2013, sequels and have met many new applications. It's time to look back and gather the best games this year that is ending. For me there are five clear winners what to you?
It took a while to arrive, but once it did proved to be a worthy continuation. Equally funny, equally addictive, the fact is that Plants Vs. Zombies 2 substantially improved the first installment by adding new scenarios, new plants, Moreover, one of the more welcome developments have had is that unlike its predecessor this game itself is free , although based on in-app purchases (not necessary to have fun).
Clash of Clans is another of the latest developments. Mixed combat, strategy, simulation and construction fun, The objective is to lead your clan to victory, but this will have to prepare, build a town, train your soldiers and then introduce well armed in battle.
Anticipated this sophisticated game, much more than a football game. The highly detailed graphics, and highly realistic animations make it worthy of the bronze on the podium of the 2013 Android games. EA Sports behaved well making this game was free on Google Play Store, because quality may be worth some money.
At about the same time as Plants vs. Zombies 2 came the second part of Dead Trigger . This game is perfect for your graphics tablets for superb but also if you like the shooter genre and zombie or apocalyptic theme is a safe bet.
This looks like the year of the sequels and how could it be otherwise the Rovio revolutionized once again their crazy birds and more space adventure . Came Angry Birds Star Wars 2 and the truth is that I especially surprised a lot. The novelty of this game came in the form of Telepods, some dolls began to have great relevance.

Af1868,1001.22
Tablet woven silk hanging used to conceal the entrance to the Holy of Holies (Q'edus Q'edusan) of an Ethiopian church.
18thC(mid)
Made in: Gondar
Found/Acquired: Ethiopia
tablet-woven
Length: 306 centimetres
Width: 63 centimetres
Curator's comments
This cloth was designed as the central section of a triptych which would have screened the inner sanctum, maqdas, from the main body of an Ethiopian Orthodox Christian church. The practice of adorning the interiors of churches with silk hangings was widespread in the Byzantine empire - a tradition that survived longer in Ethiopia than it did in the rest of Christendom. This is the largest tablet-woven textile in the world. Tablet weaving is the process whereby the 'sheds' through which the weft passes are created not by heddles, but by perforated cards strung on the warp threads. This panel would have required over 300 tablets, through which each one of four warp threads would have passed. Though a profoundly Christian artefact, the panel was probably created by a guild of Muslim or Jewish (Falasha) weavers in the city of Gondar. It is woven entirely of imported Chinese silk, and the figures that appear on it are depicted in such detail that the soldiers can be seen to be carrying firearms of Indian manufacture. The event commemorated is probably the lying-in-state of King Bakaffa (reigned 1722-30). Bakaffa, Mentaub, his wife, and their young son Iyasu are all depicted wearing the plaited band of blue silk, matab, which was a symbol of their Christian faith. C. Spring and J.

Acquisition notes
Maqdala, an almost impenetrable mountain top fortress in northern Ethiopia, became the seat of power and a retreat for Emperor Tewodros II (1855-1868). The Emperor intended Maqdala to become his capital and treasury. He collected many manuscripts from churches throughout Ethiopia and brought them to Maqdala with the intention of creating a great library and seat of learning. His treasury included many fine examples of Ethiopian art including textiles, paintings and metal work. In the 1860s relations between Tewodros and Britain became strained and relations deteriorated further when Tewodros imprisoned the British consul and several European missionaries. In 1867 a military expedition led by Sir Robert Napier was sent to free the British captives with a force made up of 12,000 men from both the British and Indian armies. At dawn on Easter Monday April 13th 1868, Napier ordered an assault on Maqdala to destroy Tewodros's stronghold. When his troops entered the fortress they found the Emperor already dead. Rather than surrender, Tewodros had taken his own life using a pistol which had been a gift from Queen Victoria. This last defiant act has immortalised Tewodros as a national hero for many Ethiopians. Material taken from Maqdala was auctioned soon after on the Delanta plain. Richard Rivington Holmes, an assistant in the manuscripts department of The British Museum, had accompanied the expedition as an archaeologist. He acquired a number of objects for the British Museum, including around 300 manuscripts which are now housed in the British Library. In 1868 the Secretary of State for India, Sir Stafford Henry Northcote, 1st Earl of Iddesleigh, donated to The British Museum two further collections of material from Maqdala. Material from Maqdala can be found in public collections in North America and Europe as well as in private collections worldwide. When the Maqdala collections first entered the British Museum in 1868 they stimulated a worldwide interest in the archaeology, history and culture of Ethiopia which has continued to this day.

Another day. Another series of hacks. eBay announced yesterday that their databases have been compromised by hackers that gained access to users' personal information such as addresses, names, and passwords. The auction site has however gone on the record saying that credit card numbers have not been compromised because that information is stored separately.
eBay strongly urges its users not only to change their passwords, but also to change the passwords on sites where the same password was used. The security breach was reported to have occurred in February, but was not detected until two weeks ago.
Two weeks can seem like a long time to disclose unnerving news such as this, but remember, it's nothing compared to the months that Target waited before announcing its breach that compromised customers' credit card numbers last holiday season. The retail chain's series of unfortunate events ultimately ended with the resignation of it's CEO.
In the end, it was a Russian teenager who hacked Target's systems. Furthermore, eBay has yet to announce who is responsible for their cyber attacks.
eBay has not been the only US company that has been under fire from hackers. It has recently become apparent to the public that Alcoa, US Steel, Westinghouse Electric, Solarworld, and Allegheny Technologies (among others) have been the target of Chinese hackers.
US Attorney General Eric Holder announced Monday that a Chinese Intelligence group dubbed 'Unit 61398' is responsible for the slew of attacks. The group focused on stealing trade secrets such as patented design plans, pricing strategies, and emails regarding litigation against the Chinese.
Shout outs to Chinese residents reading this article, by the way. Oh wait! None are, because of the great fire wall!
The United States has indicted those involved in the cyber attacks. Although it is highly unlikely that those responsible will be transported to United States and tried, this measure does prevent these individuals from traveling to the US (obviously) or countries that have extradition agreements with the US.

Nagaland CM's loyalists now demand Liezietsu step down as NPF chief
Kohima, July 31 (IANS) As many as 35 Naga People's Front (NPF) legislators owing allegiance to Nagaland Chief Minister T.R.Zeliang on Monday gave 15 days ultimatum to Shurhozelie Liezietsu to quit as party president for his autocratic style of functioning.
The NPF legislature party, which reviewed the state's political situation after Zeliang was sworn in as Chief Minister for the second time on July 19, blamed Liezietsu, the dismissed Chief Minister, for the "deep divide between the organisation and legislative wing of the NPF for his selfish ends."
Zeliang's loyalists also appointed three-time Chief Minister and lone Nagaland Lok Sabha member Neiphiu Rio as the party's interim President.
"We (36 legislators) have also advised all rank and file of the NPF not to follow any orders of Liezietsu as he has already come under a cloud and is under the process of removal from the office of the president of the NPF," said Parliamentary Affairs Minister Tokheho Yepthomi.
The members of the legislature party have also asked Chief Minister to inform the Electiion Commission about the factual situation in the NPF.
The Liezietsu-headed NPF had expelled 20 NPF legislators and suspended 10 others, who were involved in toppling his government, from the primary membership of the party for violating the party's constitution.
Zeliang was the first to be expelled from the NPF for six years while taking oath as Chief Minister after Governor P.B.Acharya dismissed Liezietsu for failing to prove majority in the assembly.

Putin's Nemesis Navalny Calls For More Anti-Corruption Demonstrations
Eastern Europe News
by L Todd Wood April 12, 2017 July 2, 2018 01471
Russian opposition leader, Alexei Navalny, has called for additional anti-corruption protests to take place on June 12th, the Russia Day holiday in the Russian Federation. Navalny has been in and out of detention and house arrest over the last few years and was instrumental in the recent nation-wide protests over Russian Prime Minister Medvedev's alleged corruption which was uncovered.
"Our goal is simple: we, honest patriots, must do everything in our power for more people to join us … to fight together against crooks and traitors," Navalny wrote in his blog on Wednesday.
"June 12 marks a great opportunity: an official national holiday, a day off. Russia Day. You and I, we're fighting for the best future for Russia, right?", he said, reports The Moscow Times.
On March 26th of this year, tens of thousands of protesters took to the streets in cities across Russia. Navalny's organization released a video which outlined the vast wealth and real estate holdings they alleged the Prime Minister had accumulated through a vast bribery scheme of corruption. The Kremlin denied the accusations and refused to investigate.
"Did we get any response? No," Navalny wrote on Wednesday. "It means [the necessity to protest again] is clear."

Iceland elections: Left government punished for its austerity programme
Niklas Albin Svensson
Iceland has often been cited as a model of how to solve the economic crisis, being presented as an example of recovery without austerity. As we have pointed out before, this is far from the truth, as any person from Iceland will tell you. On Sunday, the left government was unceremoniously booted out. This is the price they pay for the austerity of the last four years.
The government consisted of the Social Democrats (Samfylkingin) and Left-Greens (Vinstrihreyfingin – grænt framboð). The former lost more than half their votes and fell from 29.8% to 12.9%, the latter from 21.7% to 10.8%. In a dramatic turnaround this means that the Independence Party, the traditional party of the Icelandic bankers and speculators, will now be back in government. However, its 26.7% (up from 23.7%) cannot be seen as a massive victory for this party. The electorate have not forgotten what they did last time they were in government.
The real "winner" is the Progressive party, which almost doubled its votes from 14.8% to 24.4%. Sigmundur Gunnlaugsson, the leader of the Progressive Party, like so many right-wing leaders in Europe, put forward a nationalist agenda. He opposed EU accession and also the Icesave deal, so hated by the Icelandic electorate. This means that the new government will inevitably be a right-wing coalition of the Independence Party and the Progressive Party.
This result is a complete disaster for the left and the traditional parties of the working class in Iceland and should be taken as a warning to all left parties across Europe not to follow their example.
Like in many other European elections (notably Italy) new anti-establishment formations did well. Bright Future got 8%, one percentage point more than the Citizens' Movement in the last election. The Pirate Party managed to get 5%, while 12% voted for parties that did not get into parliament. If you combine the vote of these new formations and the blank votes that makes a total of 27.2%, which means that a quarter of those that voted did not vote for one of the four traditional parties. Turnout was also the lowest since independence at 81.4% (down from 85.1% in the last election).
It would be wrong, however, to draw the conclusion that this represents a vote of confidence in the right wing. Rather, it is a damning indictment of the failure of the outgoing government. As elsewhere in Europe, it is more a case of voting against whoever is responsible for carrying out austerity measures, than support for the right wing.
The left were voted in at the last election precisely because there was hope that by doing so austerity could be stopped. Instead, the very people voted in to put a halt to the demands of the bankers and speculators went ahead with those same policies. And now they have paid the price for this. There is in fact a profound sense of disillusionment among Icelanders towards the left. The Iceland Weather Report, for example, posts a comment it received, which is fairly typical of the general mood:
"I voted for the Social Democrats [in 2009], consider myself a hard-line centre person who maybe leans a little towards the left (especially in environmental and welfare affairs) and I had tremendous hope that they would bring about effective change. But the truth is that they have been an enormous disappointment."
"Myself and a lot of other people consider the betrayal by the government to be colossal. Not only because they constantly gave preferential treatment to the wealthy, both overtly and covertly, but also because they took billions of Icelandic kronur from the treasury to bail out private companies like Sparisjóður Keflavíkur [bank], VÍS and Sjóvá [insurance companies]. Completely unacceptable – especially from a left-wing government. They promised, and constantly lied, that they were safeguarding the welfare system."
Some on the left in Iceland, rather than understand what has happened, prefer to blame the workers for the results of the election. The leader of the Pirate Party, for example, puts it this way: "It is the problem of the left wing: they clean up the vomit after the cocaine party of the neo-cons, who go into rehab and then come back to reap the benefits." The idea here is that somehow the electorate doesn't understand all the good things that the government has done. It's a rather condescending attitude which hasn't got much to do with reality.
The question has to be posed bluntly: Why did the people of Iceland turn against the left parties in these elections? As the new leader of the Social Democrats, Arni Pall Arnason, admits, "the rosy picture that is painted of Iceland isn't right." He points to the fall in the Krona of around 50%, which means, in a country heavily reliant on imports, a drop in living standards of 30-40%.
The situation is in fact dire. Inflation is high – prices have increased by 75% since 2005! (Eurostat) Not only that, but many Icelanders were sold mortgages that were linked to the Euro. So, their mortgages have doubled, even though the value of their homes has not gone up at all. If you take into account the fall in the Krona, the overall value of homes has fallen by 40-50%.
Looking at the real picture, therefore, Iceland rather than being that model so loved by the reformist leaders of the left parties, suddenly looks a lot less like its relatively prosperous Scandinavian neighbours and a lot more like Greece.
The government, when elected, promised to do something about the debt, and any amount of a mortgage above 110% of the value of a property was written off. However, that still left many home owners in negative equity with their investment in their house wiped out and with higher bills on everything else. One of the most popular demands of the Progressive Party – which did very well in the elections – was a pledge to write down up to 20 per cent of mortgage debt through money received from the foreign creditors of the collapsed banks. It is unlikely that they will carry this out, but for people in massive debt, it must have seemed as both a necessary and fair demand.
As a way out of the crisis, the left government proposed joining the EU and adopting the Euro as if this would somehow restore the purchasing power of the Icelanders. There is no guarantee that joining the Euro now would solve the question of the weak currency. The exchange rate would have to be fixed at its present market value, and this would be of no help at all. Furthermore, Iceland would likely be dragged even deeper into crisis because of the instability of the Eurozone, presuming that the EU would allow the country in, an unlikely prospect in present conditions.
The left government also agreed to a completely unfair deal, whereby the Icelandic tax payer would be called on to guarantee the foreign debts of the Icelandic banks! The deal fell after popular resistance but the fact that both left parties were prepared to support it clearly served to discredit them in the eyes of the Icelandic workers. The Progressive Party opportunistically opposed the deal and thereby gained in the elections.
While the outgoing government put the burden of paying for the crisis onto the backs of working people, public spending was drastically cut. This was in line with the IMF's demands when it bailed out Iceland. Total government expenditure as a share of GDP has, as a result, fallen from 51.6% to 46.5%, a bigger fall than that in the UK (51.3% to 48.5%) which has a Conservative government, although not quite as big as that of Ireland (Eurostat). The budget deficit has been brought down from 15% to a mere 1% of GDP. Further tax rises and increases in social security payments are to be expected in the coming years according to plans laid out by the IMF and the former government. (We explained the details of this in an article three years ago.)
The outgoing left government was not simply a "victim" of the mess left by the right wing, and it wasn't just a case of failing to take action to defend the falling living standards of the workers. It actively co-operated with the IMF, and implemented the austerity programme demanded of it, offering no alternative whatsoever. As in all other countries in Europe similarly affected by the crisis, once in government the reformist left leaders, having no answer to the crisis, simply bowed down before the needs of capitalism and put the whole burden on the shoulders of working people, who can not pay.
This is the reason why the left government was punished. It failed to propose any concrete way out of the crisis for the Icelandic people. We have pointed this out before, in relation to Iceland and other countries. There is no way out under capitalism. The lesson of the Icelandic experience is that unless the left adopts a revolutionary socialist programme, unless it offers the masses the prospect of putting an end to the capitalist system, it inevitably is forced to carry out the draconian austerity measures demanded by the capitalists. That plays into the hands of the right-wing parties who can make a comeback on the electoral front. The workers and youth voted the left in to fight the capitalists, not to carry out their dictates. And once it becomes abundantly clear that these "lefts" have no answer to the crisis they are very quickly booted out.
What is needed in Iceland is not deals with the IMF and austerity policies but a socialist plan. Four years ago, we proposed the following four demands:
Let the bankers pay for their own mess!
No to lay-offs! Work for all!
No to the outrageous increases in mortgage repayments!
For a left government on a socialist programme!
These demands are as valid today as they were then. In 2011, we explained the following:
"On a capitalist basis the only way the present huge financial balance can be put right is by making the workers pay. That is what the proposed changes to welfare mean. But the workers cannot afford these measures. Accepting them would mean a life of hell, a life of dire poverty. A government that claims to be of the left should not accept such policies. The only real answer is repudiation of the country's foreign debt, combined with nationalisation of the major industries and a socialist plan of reconstruction, including investments in geothermal energy and the extraction of raw materials. Only through a national plan of production can the people of Iceland not only move out of the crisis but also ensure that they will not fall into the same trap again."
The past couple of years have borne this out. Over the coming years, with the Eurozone entering deeper into crisis, the situation will become worse, not better for the people of Iceland. The right-wing victory seems impressive on the surface. However, they have no alternative. They are the direct representatives of the capitalist class and they will merely continue and deepen further the austerity programme. That means that soon they will face mass opposition, just like they did in 2009.
What is required is an explanation of the real nature of the crisis and the perspective of radical change. But radical change today means breaking with the capitalist system. If either of the left parties were to put forward a real fighting socialist programme, they would rapidly pick up support. In Greece last year SYRIZA grew rapidly because it was perceived as being radically on the left. Whereas where the left hardly distinguishes itself from the bourgeois parties it fails to pick up the required support to win.
If the leaders of the left parties were to draw these conclusions and act accordingly, offering a genuine socialist alternative, they would be in a position to defeat the right wing once and for all, and on that basis the situation could be transformed. Then Iceland could truly become an example for the rest of Europe to follow.

Copper, gold, silver and rose gold creations are in abundance. These gleaming tones bring a real sense of glamour, glitz and sophistication to arrangements!
The natural look is proving to be popular again this year, with all-foliage designs gracing many a front door. Whether simply pared back or complemented with cones, berries, twigs or feathers, this pure botanical style is proving to be very en vogue.
Pale pink and purple are the shades leading this trend. You'll find waxed fruit, faux flowers and natural flowers all showing that subtle colours can also be very effective at this time of year... and proof that they shouldn't just be saved for the warmer seasons.
The traditional colours of Christmas, red and green, are favoured by many. You'll find table decorations, door wreaths, bouquets and mantelpiece designs aplenty.
At several London hotels, florists have created magical 'White Winter Wonderland' installations with trees and tree-like structures very much taking centre stage.
2015 sees a new emerging trend with terrariums getting a seasonal makeover. Glass cloches and jars are being transformed into mini snow scenes with penguins, Christmas trees, snowmen and Nutcracker soldiers.

Your memorable advanced again is actually the best to create and gaze after, even though it does need you to clean (or at least rinse) hair routinely, when the length of device essential will start to dried up in addition to fleck in cases where trapped in designed for excessively long.
Request ones own barber for that mark 2 or three within the facets for you to distinguish the item in the tenderloin, along with it to be kept provided that potential relating to the top.

Main Characters: Mole, Ratty, Toad, Badger, Otter, Sea Rat and Little Portly.
Description of one of the main characters: Ratty is a jolly and cheerful character in the story. He is little yet brave.
Whom I like and Why: I like Mole as he is friendly, loving and encouraging.
Whom I dislike and Why: I dislike the Sea Rat as he is boastful and praises himself all the time. He boasts about his adventures on the sea and how he escapes from tides.
Setting/Theme of the story: Ratty and Mole become friends. The story is about their adventure in the river and how they and their friends try and fight against men for Toad Hall, the place where they live.
The Part I enjoyed the most: I enjoyed the description with many rhyming words when the mole cleaned his little home in spring, whitewashed it and made it tidy.
A different ending : The animals could never get back to the rich and comfortable Toad Hall. They did not think of Caravans or any other thing which they usually think about. They stayed with Mole. In due time, they forgot Toad Hall and were happy once again.

Want to learn Mandarin? You're not alone. In the last decade the number of English speakers studying Mandarin has skyrocketed as China grows in prominence, and as Singapore, Hong Kong, and Taiwan claim their rightful places on the global stage.
Here's your free starter kit, everything you'll need to fall in love with the Chinese language: some online resources which I have found to be particularly helpful.
Note: to learn to write Chinese, you'll need to learn two different writing systems. I know, right? But trust me, the first system, Pinyin (Romanized Chinese) is going to save your life.
Chinese characters take commitment. I recommend taking the time to solidify the basics of stroke order, not because that's the way you're "supposed" to do it, but because if you get in the habit of writing characters the same way every time, you'll learn to write by muscle memory, the way the Chinese do.
To learn to read Chinese, you'll start with Pinyin (the accepted romanization system of Chinese) which luckily is GREAT. It has no exceptions and no irregularities. Given, it is not exactly the same as English, but it uses the Roman alphabet so that it easier for us to use. Pinyin will help you know how each word is pronounced. However, you'll still have to learn a Chinese character for each word in order to know how to read and write it. So yes, to learn Chinese, you're pretty much learning two separate writing system (in the eyes of a westerner).
Skritter – Note, current downloadable version is not up-to-date with current iOS. There is a link here that lets you download an old version.
Not everyone likes to learn Chinese from a textbook, and you certainly don't need to, but they can be a convenient way to structure your learning.
If you want to practice Chinese, here are some places you can go to find a partner!
Chinese dramas are here for you! Here are some of my favorites.
But you might also want to try Taiwan (just be aware that you'll be studying Traditional Characters). There are many programs to study Chinese in Taiwan, but I haven't tried any of them myself. Can anyone recommend one?
This post includes affiliate links, but I've only included products that I've tried myself and stand behind.
Have any more suggestions? Please leave them in the comments! I'll update this post as much as I can as I find new resources!
I was just thinking yesterday about how I really want to learn Mandarin next year! Thanks for the great info.

Nuclear envoys of China, Japan discuss N. Korea
By Yoon Min-sik
Published : Dec 7, 2014 - 21:07 Updated : Dec 7, 2014 - 21:07
BEIJING (Yonhap) ― The top nuclear envoys of China and Japan met in Beijing on Friday to discuss ways to resume the long-stalled talks on North Korea's nuclear weapons program, China's foreign ministry said Friday.
The talks in Beijing between Wu Dawei and his Japanese counterpart Junichi Ihara came as a top U.S. diplomat handling North Korea is on a three-nation visit to South Korea, Japan and China.
Wu and Ihara "exchanged views on promoting denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula and restarting the six-party talks," the Chinese foreign ministry said in a statement.
Sung Kim, the U.S. Special Representative for North Korea Policy, is in Seoul for talks with his South Korean counterpart. He will arrive in Beijing next week after visiting Tokyo.
In Seoul, Kim reaffirmed the U.S. stance that Washington won't resume talks with North Korea unless Pyongyang shows its seriousness about denuclearization. North Korea, which has conducted three nuclear tests, has shown no signs of giving up its nuclear ambition.
"North Korea needs to demonstrate its serious commitment to denuclearization before we can resume any negotiations," Kim told reporters in Seoul.
The six-party talks grouping South Korea, North Korea, the U.S., China, Japan and Russia have been at a standstill since late 2008.

24 hours to save our fish! (AVAAZ )
Dear Avaazers across Europe,
Industrial fishing fleets are vacuuming up so many fish, they are driving them to extinction! But in 24 hours, the EU could vote for a bold new plan to end overfishing. Big fishing interests are going all out to scupper the deal, so our messages now to key MEPs can make all the difference:
The world's oceans will soon run out of fish, unless we rein in ruthless fishing fleets! Luckily in 24 hours, the EU Parliament could vote for a bold new plan to save our seas.
Many MEPs support the historic deal that would end overfishing. But a group of countries in bed with powerful fishing interests — led by France and Spain — are bullying 'undecided' MEPs to vote no or abstain. If we build a huge wave of public support now, we can convince parliamentarians to ensure science, not greed, determines the fate of our fish.
The vote is in 24 hours — if we win, it'll set in motion one of the strongest global crackdowns on overfishing! Send an urgent message to the 23 MEPs who can make the difference:
http://www.avaaz.org/en/eu_save_our_fish_a/?bqsmtbb&v=21663
Overfishing has already wiped out 90% of the world's large predatory fish like tuna, sharks and cod. Europe's fishing policy has been a colossal failure and has contributed to the collapse — 88% of Europe's seas are overexploited, so monster boats must venture ever further to plunder the seas from Africa to the Pacific.
The stakes are high. Changing EU's policy from one based on ministers haggling for national quotas to one based on science and long-term sustainability could start rebuilding healthy oceans everywhere. Yet not only are MEPs from France and Spain scheming to gut this deal, the vote could be buried in a sea of other proposals and some MEPs might abstain simply because they're unaware of the issue. But experts say our voices count! A tidal wave of public support to key MEPs is exactly what we need to save our fish.

From Puerto Rico to NYC: Our Staff Member's Experience at NYC Climate Week
During the early afternoon hours on a sunny September 21, Puerto Rico went dark. Millions were without electricity, thousands more without water, all due to a fire in a power plant on the southern coast.
Climate week had just begun. I had been in NYC for Mashable's Social Good Summit over the weekend and was brainstorming how to incorporate my experience in New York into a candidate questionnaire I am working on with local organizers for the upcoming Puerto Rican elections.
We are in the process of preparing five core questions to be presented to the six candidates running for Puerto Rican governor. These questions are focused on addressing key areas not being covered by traditional media: Climate Change, Renewable Energy, Agriculture, Waste Management, & Environmental Health. This year is a unique election cycle because the elected governor will be occupying a voteless seat on the US appointed control board, as a part of the PROMESA bill.
Puerto Rico is currently facing a $70 billion debt, $9 billion of which is owed by our electric company, PREPA. The island wide blackout, coinciding with climate week, highlights the vulnerability of Puerto Rico in the face of climate change. While most service was restored within 4 days, the aging grid is still unstable, and rolling blackouts continue to be reported around the island. Today, my children's school is without power again, while a tropical storm threatens our southern coast, reminding us we are still in the midst of hurricane season.
Puerto Rico is already experiencing the effects of climate change. Rising sea levels, droughts, floods, and water contamination are already happening all too regularly. However, our current status as a US colony and our economic woes have virtually erased us from the conversation, much like the blackout dimmed our existence from above.
I have been following all things climate change for over a year now. I was first introduced to Climate Week in January of 2015 at a Ben & Jerry's meeting. It was the same year Ben & Jerry's launched the "Activist Core Academy", online courses offered to the Scoop Shop community to empower staff members to create positive change both in and out of Scoop Shops.
As a result of my Activist Core Academy experiences, I found myself at Mashable's Social Good Summit, kicking off Climate Week 2016 in New York City. I listened to Chelsea Handler, Joe Biden, Shaun King & many more talk about the UN's Sustainable Development Goals. As a self-proclaimed environmental ambassador, I was inspired listening to women like Helen Clark - New Zealand's first female prime minister - who is now the head of the UNDP, talk about the challenges she faced as a woman in power.
"Don't expect anyone to roll out the red carpet and invite you in. You have to roll out the carpet yourself and kick the door in."
The same could, and should, be said about promoting environmentally sound legislation in Puerto Rico. Throughout the past year I have worked locally to raise awareness about climate change. During the month of October 2015 I organized "Rally Around Climate Justice" at our Condado Scoop Shop. I traveled to Paris for the now historic COP21 in December and saw world leaders come together to fight for a healthy future for our climate. Additionally, I helped organize Puerto Rico's first Climate Walk in April 2016. One of my biggest accomplishments was organizing a successful voter registration event during Ben & Jerry's Free Cone Day 2016 – urging ice cream eaters to participate in our democracy.
These experiences have allowed me to learn more about the environmental challenges facing Puerto Rico, which is essentially a rectangle 100 miles wide and 35 miles long (minus her coastal curves). Many of these issues are unknown to the public, a few of the key ones are:
On the North coast, about a quarter of the way eastwards, we have the town of Arecibo, resisting a proposal for a Waste to Energy Incinerator. On the surface, the incinerator appears to address our growing need for solid waste disposal, however, anyone paying attention to the global response to climate change, it is a clear example of trading one evil for another. Regardless of your opinion on incinerators and their environmental hazards, the technology is archaic before it starts by promoting the production of trash, versus the reduction of what we define as trash. In a culture with virtually nonexistent recycling programs, landfills facing closure, limited water resources, it seems we have many areas to improve before committing ourselves to another arguably dirty fuel source.
A similar situation exists on the exact opposite side of the island, a quarter of the way westward from the Southeast corner of the rectangle. Here the towns of Salinas & Guayama are fighting 2 fossil fuel abuses. The existing abuse comes from the the local energy company coal fired power plant in Guayama. The project was approved under the stipulation that no coal ash would remain on the island. However, since the original contract in the 1990's, coal ash has been illegally and irresponsibly dumped in Puerto Rico and around the Caribbean. Despite its radioactive behavior and excessive amounts of heavy metals, the coal ash is promoted as a safe material to use for construction.
The second challenge comes from a proposal for an offshore natural gas drilling project, and the follow up construction of gas pipelines traversing our 100mile X 35 mile sun drenched, wind & wave activated rectangle. The energy company has used only the first stage of the project, the drilling, not the pipelines & subsequent burning of transported gas, to set the environmental impact projections, when in reality, once finished, will be much higher.
In much the same way Monsanto acquired 1500 acres of land, when the Puerto Rico constitution only allows for 500 acres to be owned by a single entity, this kind of falsification of impacts is frustratingly par for the course in Puerto Rico. Our desperate financial situation only makes our poorly legislated resources all the ripe for the picking.
Climate change is a great unifier. Citizens all over the world are being oppressed by fossil fuel giants favoring profit over people. However, the resistance is growing every day & there are victories to fuel the fight. Some argue Puerto Rico is the experimenting ground for the US, our current status as a colony only adding to a decades long debate on our relationship with the US.
While the experiments of the past are arguably nefarious in nature, I'd like to go out on a limb and volunteer Puerto Rico to be the new experimenting ground for clean energy. We could be the the US's Costa Rica, a clean energy beacon for all to learn from.
We have the resources, the energy demands to make it comparable to mainland urban cities, & citizens who have been "trained" to accept energy outages as part of island life. Let us be the guinea pigs for massive implementation of micro grids and clean, renewable energy production, creating a go to action plan for the "leap frog" proposals for developing nations.
The blackout this past week was just the tip of the ice berg, in terms of Puerto Rico's fragility in the face of climate change. While the media is focused on our financial woes, our goal with the environmental candidate questionnaire project is to uncover which of our leaders are leading from the perspective of a global citizen, responsible for the future of our planet. Because you can't create jobs where people can't live.

The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) advises that it will not exercise its independent right of appeal following its review of the reasoned decision delivered by the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) in the case against former cyclist Lance Armstrong.
This follows a full and careful review of all elements of the case and includes an external independent opinion as to the application of the statute of limitations. That opinion is clear and confirms that the interpretation given by USADA is proper and supported by case law.
WADA's announcement comes less than a week after the International Cycling Union (UCI) also announced it would not be appealing, though on that occasion the governing body of cycling commented freely and critically against USADA.
Commenting on the decision, WADA President John Fahey said: "WADA has no such concerns as to the complete process and the overwhelming weight of evidence. Rather it is of the opinion that the actions of USADA have highlighted the need in all cases for athletes to be able to come forward with evidence that will help rid sport of doping cheats.
"It is important that there now be genuine independence and a complete examination of the scenario, with a panel that has full powers of inquiry and access to all required evidence and information.
"WADA has had no communication from the UCI with regards to their upcoming inquiry, nor indeed the Armstrong reasoned decision, nor the UCI Management decisions. WADA will want to contribute to the inquiry if it is established and resourced beyond reproach.
"This is not a situation in which just because the athlete did not return a positive test there was nothing more the governing body of cycling could do. It has taken a major effort and undertaking from a national anti-doping organization to gather the compelling evidence following allegations raised by Floyd Landis in 2010.

Heavy Metal Reviews & Interviews
Tornado Kid – Hateful 10
Band – Tornado Kid
Album – Hateful 10
Country of Origin – Russia
Genre – Blues/Thrash Rock
Release Date – April 28th, 2017
Label – Independent
Author – Deranged D
St. Petersburg, Russia is the home of Modern/Blues rock band Tornado Kid. They formed back in 2013 and shortly after started releasing music. First in April of 2014, they released an EP called Booze N' Blues. A suitable introduction for five guys just having fun, partying and boozing it up. Then a cover EP in July of 2014 called Surrounded States of America, on which they cover the likes of GG Allin, Hank Williams III, and Marilyn Manson. Then shortly after that, in November, the five piece released another EP called Black Heart Blues. They've hit the road hard since then, opening for bands like Our Last Night, Airbourne, and Protest the Hero. And even headlining Ranki Rock in Florida.
Now back in April of this year, they released what is their first full length album in Hateful 10. They off their same roots and past of blues and modern rock with some hints of even Hardcore. The album was mostly produced by the band and was mastered at USound Works Studio. All songs were written by frontman Dima the Dog, with themes of life circumstances, insane parties, pure sadness, guns and mass amounts of alcohol, and chicks. Really good grooves and chunky bass and guitar riffs. Just genuinely a fun album. They are pretty well rounded. The drummer does some really cool stuff against the grain sometimes. There's rhythms you just can't avoid bobbing your head to.
Hateful 10 by TORNADO KID
Recommendation: Awesome party rock. Just a blast to listen to.

Exceptional cases: High Court widens scope of LASPO and declares guidance unlawful
The High Court recently gave judgement in Gudanaviciene & Ors v Director of Legal Aid Casework & Anor [2014] EWHC 1840 (Admin).
The judgement is long and detailed, but repays reading in full, and includes a detailed discussion of the scope of s10 LASPO exceptional cases and the extent to which legal aid should be available in cases outside the scope of Schedule 1. It also finds, contrary to what has been said by the MoJ and LAA to date, that refugee family reunion is in fact in scope.
s10 provides that:
"(1) Civil legal services other than services described in Part 1 of Schedule 1 are to be available to an individual under this part if subsection (2) … is satisfied.
(2) This subsection is satisfied where the Director –
(a) has made an exceptional case determination in relation to the individual and the services, and
(b) has determined that the individual qualifies for the services in accordance with this Part,
(and has not withdrawn either determination).
(3) For the purposes of subsection (2), an exceptional case determination is a determination –
(a) that it is necessary to make the services available to the individual under this Part because failure to do so would be a breach of –
(i) the individual's Convention rights (within the meaning of the Human Rights Act 1998), or
(ii) any rights of the individual to the provision of legal services that are enforceable EU rights, or
(b) that it is appropriate to do so, in the particular circumstances of the case, having regard to any risk that failure to do so would be such a breach."
Collins J concluded that, in respect of the test in 10(3)(a),
Thus if the Director is satisfied that legal aid is in principle needed when its refusal would to a high level of probability result in a breach, s.10(3)(a) is met and means and merits will determine whether legal aid is to be granted and to what extent. It may for example not be necessary to grant legal aid for more than advice, particularly as the obtaining of advice from a competent solicitor may save further cost by persuading the individual that he has no case or enabling him to present his application in a way which enables the decision maker or court to deal with it expeditiously and without the cost incurred in seeing whether a litigant in person does have valid points. (para 44)
He concluded that the test of "certainty" referred to by Coulson J in M v Director of Legal Aid and Casework [2014] EWHC 1354 (Admin) was the wrong approach; what was required was a high level of probability of a breach.
Collins J went on to consider the s10(3)(b) test in the context of Article 8 ECHR immigration cases, which were the cases before the Court. He concluded that the Lord Chancellor's Guidance on Exceptional Funding (Non-Inquests) was wrong because it set too high a threshold for the grant of funding. It failed to recognise that Article 8 applies in immigration cases, and carries with it procedural requirements that must be followed even if Article 6 is excluded. (para 51)
Collins J left for consideration in other cases whether the exceptional cases regime breached the Equality Act 2010 and whether it erected unacceptable practical obstacles.
Refusal of legal aid was quashed in all 6 cases. In some, Collins J left it to the a Director to re-consider, in others he directed that legal aid should be granted. Most interesting in the wider context was the case of B, considered at paras 98 – 114.
B is an Iranian refugee who was granted asylum in 2013. She then applied for refugee family reunion with her husband and son. Her solicitors applied for legal aid, and in the alternative exceptional funding, to cover advice and assistance with the claim.
The LAA refused legal aid on the basis that it was outside the scope of Schedule 1 LASPO, and refused exceptional funding because it would not be impossible for her to present her claim and her cousin could help her with English.
Collins J decided that refugee family reunion IS within the scope of LASPO, since para 30 of part 1 of Schedule 1 says "rights to enter and remain…arising from the Refugee Convention" are in scope. "A person who is recognised as a refugee has a right conferred by the Immigration Rules for family unity. As a matter of ordinary English, that right arises from the Convention since the Convention enabled that person to achieve the status of refugee." (para 105). Parliament had not unequivocally decided to remove family reunion from scope, and so it is in. If this survives any appeal, it is highly significant – both in terms of of the numbers of immigration cases now back in scope, but also because of the approach which could be applied to the interpretation of other parts of Schedule 1.
This is an important judgement which will have implications beyond just immigration cases. Pink Tape has a discussion of the judgement and some thoughts on how it can be used in out of scope family cases, and there will be other areas where it may apply. However, it will almost certainly be the subject of an appeal, and it remains to be seen what the Court of Appeal will make of it.
