Reid Sherman '04 travels to Australia over Winter Break to collect data with astronomical research team.
Christmas is coming earlier this year for one Haverford student. The senior astronomy major will be in Australia over the holiday, where he's being given an opportunity few, if any, undergraduates have experienced. From December 6 until January 4, Reid Sherman will be collecting data for an international team of scientists at the Parkes Radio Telescope, one of the world's most important facilities for astronomical research.
Famous for its role in relaying Apollo 11 pictures from the moon in 1969, the Parkes facility is the only such telescope in the southern hemisphere. "It's the only facility in the world that can be used to collect the kind of data that is required for our project," explained Fronefield Crawford, part of the science team and a visiting assistant professor in physics at Haverford with whom Reid has been collaborating. " Reid is going to the facility to conduct observations on our behalf,"says Crawford. "I think it's the first time that an undergraduate has been sent to a telescope like the one at Parkes on his own, unaccompanied by a faculty advisor."
Following some initial supervision by the observatory staff, Reid will be completely responsible for one shift of the telescope's 24-hour schedule. During that time he will collect data for Crawford and other scientists from Canada, England, Italy, and Australia, as well as for other researchers who've reserved time at the observatory for their astronomical projects. Crawford and his colleagues are interested in looking at pulsars — collapsed, rapidly rotating stars that are formed in stellar explosions at the end of a star's life – and their potential relationship to gamma rays. "The specific parts of the sky that we are targeting contain gamma rays," explains Crawford. "We don't know the sources of these gamma rays, but we think they could be associated with pulsars."
The ability of scientists to collect data on phenomena such as pulsars furthers their understanding of the fundamental structures of the universe and all physical laws, says Crawford, who, like Reid, had the opportunity as an undergraduate to take part in observations at a major observatory. "Even though you can't actually see these objects when you are using a radio telescope, knowing you're the only person in the world collecting that information at that moment is quite magical."

Vichy Laboratories sells a number of products including makeup, face and body care products, and sun care products. These products include an ingredient named "Vichy Spa Water" which is said to contain fifteen mineral salts and trace elements in high concentrations. Vichy Spa Water is said to have soothing properties to help reinforce the skin's natural protective functions. Vichy Laboratories' says that its mission is to help every individual to optimize their skin's health with products that are hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic to be used on all skin types, even those with sensitive skin or those which are prone to acne and breakouts.
Product Details
One of the products in the Vichy Laboratories skin care line is Vichy Dermablend Corrective Foundation SPF 20. Vichy Dermablend Foundation SPF 20 is not intended to be an anti-aging product. Vichy Dermablend Foundation SPF 20 is intended to provide total coverage of skin imperfections such as irregular skin tone, redness, acne scars, and skin pigmentation disorders. Vichy Dermablend is also said to be good for covering tattoos. Supposedly, the benefits that can be obtained by using the product include all day moisturizing and twice the coverage of a traditional foundation with a natural lightweight finish. The foundation is intended to wear for 12 hours, possibly 16 if the Vichy Setting Powder is used to finish the application as directed. Vichy Laboratories promotes that Vichy Dermablend Foundation SPF 20 is dermatology and allergy tested, non-comedogenic, non-acnegenic and fragrance free as well as water proof if used with the Vichy Setting Powder. The official website does not publish the full list of ingredients making it difficult to assess if the product will perform as intended. There are no before and after photos of those who have tried the products and no customer testimonials on the official Vichy Laboratories website.
The Good
- May provide coverage of skin imperfections.
- Contains and SPF 20 to protect the skin from sun damage.
The Bad
- The full list of ingredients are undisclosed by Vichy Laboratories.
- No anti-aging ingredients are used in the formula.
- No before and after photos and no customer testimonials are posted on the official product website.
The Bottom Line
Vichy Dermablend Foundation SPF 20 will likely appeal to consumers wishing to obtain coverage for skin imperfections due to acne scars, rosecea and skin pigmentation irregularities. Without before and after photos, it is difficult to assess if the product will in fact perform as intended. This product is not intended to be an anti-aging product but it may provide sun protection which is important for aging skin as sun damage has been proven to cause premature wrinkles. It would be better if Vichy Laboratories did disclose the full list of ingredients because even though it claims it can be used on sensitive skin, consumers like to know what is in the products they choose to purchase.

MEXICO: Terror in Pantanal, Nayarit
Terror in Pantanal, Nayarit
Four more deaths in Mexico's drug war were counted Friday morning after a clash between rival criminal gangs occurred between 6:30 and 8:00 AM this Friday in the town of Pantanal, located in the municipality of Xalisco, Nayarit.
After the battle had ended and authorities had arrived, the bodies of the four gunmen were located inside a heavily damaged kindergarden compound. Due to the early hour of the fighting the school was empty and there were no innocent victims.
A nearby estate was being used as a safehouse by one group of gunmen and was the apparent target of the early morning attack by a rival gang. During the hour long firefight before police authorities and the army arrived the fighting had spread to the kindergarden.
A cache of 8 rifles, 11 grenades, a grenade launcher and 87 magazines, in addition to 7 vehicles that had previously been reported stolen from the nearby city of Tepic, were recovered from the safehouse and the kindergarden.
A confrontation between gunmen and army troops was also reported when a military unit reached the scene of the fighting. According to a statement from Sedena (Mexico's defence department) the four gunmen were killed by the military.
Terrified residents of this community close to the state capitol of Tepic closed shops, suspended classes and those who could fled to the capitol.

El Lobo" extradited to the U.S.
"El Lobo" Oscar Orlando Nava Valencia (seated) and other members of the Cartel del Milenio during their presentation at the Attorney General's office in Mexico City after their capture on October, 2009.
Mexico has extradited "El Lobo" Oscar Orlando Nava Valencia, former kingpin of the "cartel de los Valencia" or Milenio cartel, to the U.S. to face charges of conspiracy and drug trafficking before the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas.
The transfer of custody from AFI (Federal Investrigative Agency) officials to representatives from the U.S. Marshals Service for Nava Valencia was held January 27 at the airport in Toluca, Mexico.
Nava Valencia was captured after a gun battle with Mexican Army troops on October 28, 2009 in the municipality of Tlajomulco de Zuniga, Jalisco.
"El Lobo" and his brother Juan "El Tigre" Nava Valencia were responsible for the planning and movement of cocaine shipments from South and Central America to the port of Manzanillo, Colima from where it was smuggled into the United States.
After the arrest of "El Lobo", Juan Nava Valencia took over the leadership of the Milenio cartel until May 6, 2010 when he also was arrested during an army operation in Guadalajara.
According to Mexican law enforcement investigators, "El Lobo" was a collaborator in trafficking operations with Ignacio "Nacho" Coronel and had close links with the Sinaloa Cartel and Joaquin "el Chapo" Guzman.
The Nava Valencia brothers and Nacho Coronel had as their center of operations the states of Jalisco, Colima and Nayarit, and also had a presence in Michoacan. Investigators believe the void left after the death of Coronel and the arrests of the Valencias are the main reason for the violent dispute for control of drug trafficking in Jalisco and Nayarit.
The criminal origin of the "Valencia" or "Milenio" cartel dates from the early 1990′s, when they were in control of the planting and harvesting of Marijuana and Opium in the area along the border between the states of Jalisco and Michoacan, and formed a wide drug distribution network on U.S. soil.

Milenio Cartel asks Governor of Jalisco to mediate conflict
The Milenio Cártel hung several narcomantas in Jalisco, during the day on Friday.
The message was directed at Emilio González Márquez, governor of that state, and repudiates recent actions against the cartel by the SSP.
It also claims that the authorities are taking money from rival criminal organizations in exchange for political and police protection. It asks the governor to mediate the issue or he "risks" bringing chaos to Jalisco.
The messages were laminated and hung near roads and bridges of busy intersections. One of them was place next to the remains of several dead animals.
A few pictures were taken before the police were able to remove them after some effort. The perpetrators had secured them with great care, so the messages were difficult to remove.
The Text.
"Al señor GOBERNADOR: Si quiere que termine la violencia en Jalisco solo tiene que poner orden en la S.S.P. al mando de LUIS CARLOS NAJERA Y ALEJANDRO SOLORIO Y CARLOS ALEJANDRO CARDENAS EL CHARLY enlace de NEMECIO OCEGUERA alias el MENCHO y evite que Jalisco se convierta en otro Tamaulipas o Guerrero no arriesguen la vida de sus elementos por unos cuantos pesos que reciben directores a cambio de brindar protección a los torcidos que se hacen llamar NCJ mientras la S.S.P. nos levanta a nuestra gente para entregársela al NCJ nosotros no fomentaremos la violencia de lo contrario prepárense para que Jalisco arda en llamas al ustedes piensan que esto ya termino se equivocan apenas va a comenzar Michoacán tiene su guerra con la PFP evite que Jalisco la tenga la suya con la S.S.P. De los Traidores y de los torcidos y secuestradores nosotros nos encargamos como lo hacíamos antes hasta que los dejaron operar a estas basuras y lacras que dicen llamar Jalisco NUEVA GENERACION y que ni de Jalisco son. Usted tiene la solución en sus manos. Atte. Cártel del Milenio MFG"
Mr. Governor: if you want the violence to end in Jalisco, all you have to do is tell the SSP led by LUIS CARLOS NAJERA and ALEJANDRO SOLORIO and CARLOS ALEJANDRO CARDENAS EL CHARLY envoy of NEMECIO OCEGUERA alias el MENCHO, to stop kidnapping our people and handing them over to the group who call themselves the NCJ (Nuevo Cartel de Jalisco). If you want to avoid bringing chaos to Jalisco you must end this, or you risk turning the state into another Tamaulipas or Guerrero, you are putting the lives of your officers on the line in exchange for letting your directors take bribes from the NCJ.
We are not the proponents of this violence, but prepare yourselves for Jalisco to burn in flames. You think this is over? You're wrong. Michoacan has barely started its war with the PFP, and you must avoid Jalisco having its own war with the SSP.
In regards to the traitors, the murderers, the kidnappers: we will take responsibility of wiping them out, like we did before you guys let this trash who call themselves Next Generation of Jalisco start operating in our state: They're not even from Jalisco!
The solution is in your hands.

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills
The Real Catfights of Beverly Hills, Season 2, Episode 19: "Night of a Thousand Surprises"
Jealousy, impatience, anger, annoyance: all sweet, sweet fodder for the most sensational catfights. When the women are swillin' the ol' haterade, we've got your ringside coverage. Here are the highlights from Season 2, Episode 18 of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, "Night of a Thousand Surprises." Get ready to rumble!
INSTIGATOR: We're not sure it's possible to just point a finger at one of them at this point.
WHY: They're still discussing the fact that Kim missed the flight, with Kyle saying that Kim isn't responsible and never apologizes for what she does, while Kim says that Kyle wants her to be more like Kyle.
WINNER: Neither one. It's too tough to pick a "winner" per se, but we at least don't feel that either is really out-of-line either. Both women stay level-headed, with Kim opening up about her relationship, and Kyle trying to get Kim to take more responsibility, which is a fair criticism at this point in Kim's life. The only thing we still don't know: What exactly was Kim doing with that flower while they were talking? Was she planning a magic trick?
INSTIGATOR: They both do their fair share of instigating — and then some.
WHY: Kim nitpicks Ken about tiny things and tells her friends she's leaving him. Meanwhile, Ken calls her shoes "ratty," refuses to leave her side, and supposedly monitors her phone calls.
WINNER: Nobody. Based on what we've seen, it's time to end this relationship. Kim seems to be so frustrated with Ken that she's upset at him for the smallest things; instead of thanking him for the soda, she's mad that there's no ice. But given how controlling he supposedly is, we can understand this resentment. And then the final scene in the SUR bathroom — in which Kim locks herself in, a la the film Panic Room — is both embarrassing and a little scary.
INSTIGATOR: Cedric
WHY: Whether or not Cedric was invited to Lisa's launch party is up for debate (Cedric maintains that he was invited), but after Lisa asked him to go he was reluctant to leave.
WINNER: It's a toss-up. It's possible that Lisa could have taken Cedric aside and asked him privately to leave, but if he did indeed arrive unannounced, we totally understand that Lisa is tense and angry after not having spoken to Cedric since he insulted her and her family. And if he truly hadn't apologized since their blow-up, then Lisa was right to toss him out. On the other hand, if Cedric did have an invite to the party, as he says he did, Lisa should have owned up to that in front of the cameras.

Things Outkast Is Cooler Than: The Complete List
All Other Motherfunkers on the Planet
Song: "So Fresh, So Clean"
It is unclear what a "motherfunker" is, as the term is without accepted definition in the dictionary. But in this song, released in 2000, Andre 3000 claims that he and Big Boi are "the coolest motherfunkers on the planet," which means that the two of them are thereby cooler than any other motherfunker that exists on Earth. Whatever that means.
All Other Individuals on the Planet
Song: "Bust"
Three years later, as if its members understood that this situation warranted clarification, Outkast released this song, with the line "Some of the coolest individuals on the planet, we said." It would appear, based on this information, that a motherfunker = an individual, which would mean that Outkast is asserting itself to be cooler than any individual on Earth.
A Polar Bear's Toenails (Still)
Song: "D.F. (Interlude)"
As explained at this article's outset, a polar bear's toenails are exceptionally cool, even cold, but OutKast is cooler than them. In this interlude from 2000's Stankonia, Big Boi reminds his audience that he is, in fact, "still cooler than a polar bear's toenails." As if there was ever any doubt.
Outkast will perform at LouFest this year, held in Forest Park on September 6 and 7. You would be a fool not to attend.

The European Antitrust Review 2015
Denmark: Merger Control
The Danish merger control regime was implemented in 2000 and is largely based on the principles of the EU merger control regulation. Generally, the Danish merger regulation in the Competition Act is interpreted in accordance with EU law and practice from the European Commission and the European Courts.
The substantive test under Danish law is equivalent to the test under EU law. Similarly, jurisdiction is based on turnover thresholds largely calculated in accordance with EU law principles. The notification forms are also very similar to the EU model.
Legislation and competent authority
The Danish merger control rules are set out in chapter 4 of the Danish Competition Act. Detailed rules on the calculation of turnover and the notification of concentrations are set out in two executive orders.
The Danish Competition and Consumer Authority (the Authority) and the Danish Competition Council (the Council) are responsible for the administration of Danish merger rules. The Authority prepares the cases and decides less complicated cases on behalf of the Council. Phase II mergers are generally decided by the Council.
The decisions of the Council can be appealed to the Danish Competition Appeals Tribunal (the Tribunal). The Tribunal is an independent administrative appeals body chaired by a Danish Supreme Court justice. The decisions of the Tribunal may in turn be appealed to the ordinary courts. No Danish merger decision has until now been subject to appeal.
Pursuant to section 12a of the Competition Act, the following constitutes a merger:
- two or more previously independent undertakings amalgamating into one undertaking;
- one or more persons who already control one or more undertakings – by an agreement to purchase shares or assets or by any other means – acquiring direct or indirect control of the entirety of or parts of one or more other undertakings; or
- the establishment of a joint venture that will perform all the functions of an independent business entity on a permanent basis.
Control can be obtained through rights or agreements or in other ways that will, either separately or in combination, make it possible to exert decisive influence on the operations of the undertaking. The acquisition of a minority shareholding may also constitute a merger in so far as the acquirer obtains decisive influence on the undertaking, for example, through agreements concerning voting rights, or if important decisions require a qualified majority or may be vetoed.
Jurisdictional thresholds
A concentration shall be notified to the Authority if:
- the combined aggregate turnover in Denmark of all the undertakings concerned is at least 900 million kroner and the aggregate turnover in Denmark of each of at least two undertakings concerned is at least 100 million kroner; or
- the aggregate turnover in Denmark of at least one of the undertakings concerned is at least 3.8 billion kroner and the aggregate worldwide turnover of at least one of the other undertakings concerned is at least 3.8 billion kroner.
The concept of undertakings concerned in the Competition Act – the direct participants in a merger – is identical to the EU concept, and the Commission's practice and the Consolidated Jurisdictional Notice provide guidance.
The Danish rules on the calculation of turnover are set out in more detail in Executive Order No. 808 of 14 August 2009 on the calculation of turnover. Generally, the rules correspond to the Consolidated Jurisdictional Notice. Special Danish rules apply to undertakings subject to joint management (horizontal groups) and undertakings controlled by central, local and regional authorities.
The turnover of an undertaking (eg, the acquirer) includes the total turnover of all companies controlled by the undertaking or by the company or person who controls the undertaking. This also includes the turnover of companies that have a joint management with the undertaking – namely, companies where the joint management coordinates the operations, where the participating undertakings have all subjected themselves to the joint management and an arrangement has been put into place for allocating business risks and the financial results between the participating undertakings. For joint ventures, the turnover corresponding to the acquirer's ownership share in the company shall be included.
The turnover of the target only includes turnover relating to the target and companies controlled by the target. If part of an undertaking is acquired, only the turnover related to this part, including any subsidiaries, is taken into account.
The relevant turnover is the net turnover derived from the sale of products and the provision of services falling within the undertakings' ordinary activities. Value added taxes and other taxes related to sales are excluded. Internal turnover between the different undertakings in a group is excluded. Geographically, the turnover is allocated to the country where the product is delivered, or where the service is provided.
Notification procedure
If the jurisdictional thresholds are met, prior notification to the Authority is mandatory. In 2013, a total of 41 notifications were filed with the Authority, 33 of which were notified under the simplified procedure and 8 pursuant to the full-form procedure.
The timing of the notification
Notification to the Authority can be made when there is a merger agreement (which may be subject to conditions) between the parties, a takeover bid has been made public or a controlling interest has been acquired. The notification must be made before the merger is carried through. In most cases, a letter of intent or the like is not sufficient for the Authority to accept the notification.
Time frame for the Authority's assessment
There is no legal requirement for a pre-notification phase. Once the notification has been filed, the Authority must declare the notification complete or specify any missing information within 10 working days. However, the Authority recommends that the parties contact it as soon as possible after it has been established that the merger is notifiable. During the pre-notification phase, the drafting of the notification can be discussed with the Authority and draft notifications can be submitted to and reviewed by the Authority. In practice, it will often take from four to eight weeks to have a full form notification declared complete and it may take from to two to four weeks in case of a short form notification.
As of 1 August 2013, fees for merger filings must be paid before a merger notification is deemed complete. The fee for a simplified notification is 50,000 kroner, whereas the fee for a full notification is 0.015 per cent of the combined turnover in Denmark of the undertakings concerned. The fee is capped at 1.5 million kroner. The fees are generally not reimbursable.
Once the notification has been declared complete by the Authority, Phase I, which lasts 25 working days, begins. In Denmark, most mergers are approved in Phase I. If the merger is not approved in Phase I, including for reasons of time, the Authority will open Phase II.
A Phase II investigation is more thorough, and the Authority will usually contact customers and other market participants if this has not already been done in Phase I. If commitments are to be discussed, Phase II will most often be opened – but it may be closed quickly once an agreement on commitments has been reached. Phase II investigations must be completed within 90 working days from the expiry of Phase I. The time frame for a Phase II investigation will automatically be extended by up to 20 working days if commitments are proposed by the parties during the last 20 working days of Phase II. Further, the Council may, at any time, extend the deadline by up to 20 working days provided that the undertakings concerned have requested or consented to the extension.
Formats of the notification
Since 2010, a full-form procedure and a simplified notification procedure have been available; both inspired by the EU merger regime. The simplified procedure offers substantial time savings as less detailed data has to be submitted.
The simplified procedure may be used in the following cases:
- mergers in which two or more undertakings acquire joint control of an undertaking and where the turnover of the joint venture or of the transferred activities is less than 100 million kroner in Denmark, or where the total value of the assets or the turnover generated by the assets transferred to the joint venture is less than 100 million kroner in Denmark;
- mergers where one undertaking acquires sole control of another undertaking over which it already has joint control; or
- mergers where two or more undertakings are merged or one or more undertakings acquire sole or joint control of another undertaking and in which:
- none of the parties have activities in the same product and geographic market or in a product market which is downstream or upstream from a product market in which another party to the merger is engaged;
- two or more of the parties to the merger are active in the same product and geographic market but will have a combined market share below 15 per cent in Denmark; or
- one or more of the parties to the merger are active on a downstream or upstream product market where another party operates, provided that neither their individual nor their combined market share on these markets is 25 per cent or more in Denmark.
Even if these conditions are fulfilled, the Authority may, at its discretion, require a full notification. Accordingly, it is recommended to discuss the type of notification procedure with the Authority during the pre-notification phase.
The notification forms are available on the Authority's website, www.kfst.dk. Normally, notifications are filed in Danish, but the Authority may accept notifications in English. This should be agreed with the Authority before submission.
Substantive test
The substantive test under Danish law corresponds to the SIEC-test under EU-law and is interpreted in accordance with the case law of the European Courts and the case law and guidance of the Commission. Only concentrations that significantly impede effective competition, primarily as a result of the creation or strengthening of a dominant position, will be blocked by the Council or the Authority.
However, until now, the Council and the Authority have arguably had a more static, market-share based approach to findings of dominance and unilateral effects than the Commission. It is hoped that the increasing use of economic evidence in Danish merger proceedings will help to reverse this.
In the Arcus/Pernod Ricard case of 2012, where the market shares were very high (above 90 per cent on some markets), the use of diversion ratios and UPP calculations were central to the Authority's analyses and approval of the transaction subject to divestiture. Subsequent cases and public statements from the Authority indicate that use of diversion ratios and UPP calculations is the 'new standard' in cases concerning consumer-related markets; both in relation to market definition and the substantive assessment.
Diversion ratio analysis was also central in the approval of the JYSK/IDdesign merger from autumn 2013. Both companies sold furniture at the retail level and consumers were asked via surveys where they would buy their furniture if their preferred shop was no longer available. The analysis was significantly affected by the fact that IDdesign was found to disappear from the market due to bankruptcy 'but for' the merger. Due to this unusual counterfactual, the diversion ratio analysis showed that larger competitive pressure would exist from or on the remaining competitors – primarily IKEA – with the merger than without.
Similarly, the EY/KPMG merger from 2014 follows the trend towards a more economic substantive assessment. On the markets for tax and accountancy services to large companies, the Authority stated that it was not enough merely to look at the Herfindahl–Hirschman Index (HHI) figures. Instead, the Authority applied a more in-depth assessment and found that the markets were 'characterised by Bertrand competition and product differentiation'; suppliers had available capacity in the short run and the long run; and large tenders played a great role in the market. Due to these factors, only suppliers with a certain critical mass were found to apply a competitive pressure on the incumbents.
Public statements from the Authority indicate that the use of diversion ratios and UPP calculations may become the new standard in cases concerning consumer related markets, and that diversion ratios and UPP calculations may also be used for the market definition. However, the classic approach is still used in the initial assessment of a merger. Insofar as the Authority finds that the merger could potentially give rise to concerns, it may supplement the classic approach with a more economic test including diversion ratios and UPP calculations. Moreover, as shown by the JYSK/IDdesign and EY/KPMG mergers, the Authority may also use diversion ratios and UPP calculations to check for concerns even if a traditional market share and entry barrier approach does not indicate concerns.
As with joint ventures under EU law, the creation of a joint venture performing on a lasting basis all the functions of an autonomous economic entity shall be considered a concentration under Danish law. Similarly, if the joint venture may also have as its object or effect the coordination of the behaviour between parent companies, this is appraised according to the rules on anti-competitive agreements (the Danish equivalent of article 101 TFEU).
Until now, the vast majority of Danish merger cases have been approved with or without remedies. In fact, only one merger, the Lemvigh Müller/AO case from 2008, has been prohibited since the introduction of merger control in Denmark in 2000. However, substantive commitments have been imposed in a number of cases – for example, in the Nykredit case, where Nykredit sought unsuccessfully to have certain commitments annulled (see judgment of the Danish Supreme Court of 3 June 2014).
If a merger is found by the Authority to give rise to competition concerns, the parties may propose remedies in order to obtain an approval. With the exception of cases dealt with under the simplified procedure, commitments – structural or behavioural – are quite common.
According to the Danish Competition Act, remedies may include:
- the divestiture of a company, parts of a company, assets or other owner interests;
- the grant of access to third parties to the merged entity's technology, production facilities, distribution facilities or similar facilities; or
- other measures that may promote efficient competition.
After the introduction of the Danish merger control regime in 2000, behavioural remedies were often accepted by the Council – even in cases where the merged entity had a market share close to 90 per cent in major markets, the Council was willing to rely heavily on behavioural remedies. However, controlling the merged entity's compliance with behavioural remedies was difficult and required substantial resources from the Authority. Also, the decisional practice showed that behavioural remedies often gave rise to additional case-handling – either because the remedies were violated by the merged entity, or because the merged entity tried to have the remedies changed or removed with reference to reduced market shares or a new market situation. Due to this, the more recent decisional practice shows greater reliance on structural remedies, alone or in combination with behavioural remedies.
In the Arcus/Pernod Ricard Denmark merger of 2012, the post-merger entity would achieve a market share of more than 90 per cent in two of the most important markets, which gave rise to concerns of unilateral effects. The problem was solved by the divestiture of one of the target's most popular brands, which brought the HHI figures down to the same level as before the concentration. Diversion ratios and UPP calculations were central in relation to both market definition and the testing of remedies.
The 2013 case of Vilomix/Hatting was about a number of markets in the agricultural sector, including the market for veterinary medicine for amimal-yielding marketable produce in Denmark. A subsidiary of the target company, Hatting-Vet, was considered a 'maverick' firm which, prior to the merger, had increased both its market share and competition in the market. The Council found that the acquisition of a maverick firm by a large player gave rise to concerns, and Hatting-Vet was consequently divested to a third party to the merger.
In EY/KPMG from May 2014, the Authority found that the merger would significantly reduce competition in the markets for accountancy and tax services to large companies in Denmark, and one of the concerns was that the Big 4 (KPMG, EY, PWC and Deloitte) in Denmark would be reduced from four to three. To remedy these concerns, the Authority improved access to the market for the new member of KPMG International/Accura Tax – by agreeing to remedies, according to which a number of partners and employees could change from the merging parties to KPMG International/Accura Tax without being bound by competition clauses.
According to the Authority's guidance paper on merger filings, the parties are encouraged to consider remedies as early in the process as possible if the concentration may give rise to concerns. Otherwise, there could be a risk that the approval process would be prolonged. Further, the parties can expect the Authority to market test the remedies. Either the Authority will contact third parties directly, or the proposed remedies will be published on the Authority's web page with a request to third parties to comment. For a merger filing to be complete, the parties must therefore also provide a non-confidential version of the filing.
Ancillary restrictions
As with EU notifications, Danish merger approvals automatically cover ancillary restrictions. The Authority will not deal with ancillary restrictions to the merger, and it is up to the parties to assess whether there are any ancillary restrictions that need to be evaluated by the Authority. The Commission guidelines and practice apply.
Judicial review
The Council's decisions in merger cases may be appealed to the Tribunal by the notifying parties, and the Tribunal's decisions may in turn be appealed to the ordinary courts. An appeal must be lodged within four weeks of the Council's decision. The Tribunal has the competence to examine all the aspects of the decision. Also, it is possible to appeal only parts of the decision – for example, remedies imposed by the authorities. After a merger has been approved, the Council may impose injunctions necessary to secure timely compliance with the accepted remedies.
Third parties have no right to appeal merger decisions to the Tribunal. However, a third party may, if sufficient legal interest is demonstrated, bring the decision of the Council directly before the ordinary courts.
To date, there are no examples of merger decisions having been appealed to the Tribunal or the courts.

The industry just makes sense.
In other words, the demand for quality property management companies is substantial and increasing. Why? With higher credit lending standards, fewer Americans can afford to buy. Millenials are burdened with high college loans and prefer the flexibility of renting over buying. Prices for properties have rebounded, making them less affordable. Advances in technology have made it possible for investors to acquire real estate outside of their local markets. All this has resulted in significant growth and profitability potential for property management companies.
Your role as a property manager would be to find and screen tenants, process rent payments, provide property inspections, maintenance & repairs, and process evictions when necessary. As the owner of your own business, you would be selling your services to property owners and investors, working with real estate agents and others to gain business referrals, and managing your business and staff. Our well established, proven operating systems and technology will streamline your operation and make you more efficient than your competitors.
Real Property Management was recently named the 10th best franchise in the United States by Forbes magazine. We are also proud to be ranked on Entrepreneur magazine's list of top 500 franchise companies for the last six years; Inc. 500 recognized us as being one of the fastest growing privately held companies in 2010 through 2013. And, in 2013 franchise business review named us a top 100 franchise for veterans based on satisfaction surveys from our veteran owners compared to other franchises.
Property management itself is a simple concept, yet the systems required to make it a smooth and efficient process require education and training. Our in-depth, comprehensive education programs are designed to give you a competitive edge from the beginning. In fact, most of our franchisees had no prior experience with real estate or property management. You will have 24/7 access to operating best practices, template agreements, documents and on-going support from industry experts.
When attempting to grow or expand a business, having the right marketing tools that are professionally prepared is essential. Our huge selection of traditional advertising and online marketing tools, customized web sites, social media support, videos, scripts, emails and presentations will help you generate business.

Our franchisees come from all walks of life, and do not need previous real estate or property management experience. Our best franchisees were committed to working hard for the first few years before reaping the rewards of their efforts. You must have a minimum of $75,000 in liquid capital.

Teen Mom
16 and Pregnant Recap of Season 4, Episode 12: Kristina Robinson
It's been a long season of tears, laughter, and contractions (we ate a lot of pizza), and how has MTV reward us? By serving up the most emotional episode of 16 and Pregnant yet!
Let's just say we were curled up in the fetal position covered in potato chips and pregnancy tests by the time this bad boy ended.
Baby Blues
Kristina's a regular teenage gal like the rest of us (OK, fine ... we aren't teenagers), but one huge difference? Her fiance, John Todd Hight Jr., died in a dangerous riptide during a beach vaycay when Kristina was just a few months pregnant. Annnnd, cue hysterical weeping.
Poor Kristina is devastated during the aftermath of Todd's death, so she moves in with her sister, Dotty, who's married to Todd's brother, Daniel.
Even though Dotty and Daniel are super supportive, Kristina isn't emotionally equipped to deal with her fiance's death — especially because her guilt-ridden mom keeps wanting her to revisit the day he passed away.
Kristina's smothered by her emotions, and she doesn't want to burden any of her grief-stricken family members with her feelings.
She decides to take a load off by getting her GED instead of finishing high school, which is probably a good idea — at least for now!
The Stork Comes Early!
After a particularly terrible fight with her mom, Kristina wakes up in the middle of the night with painful stomach cramps, so she heads to the hospital and finds out that she's in early labor.
Girlfriend is only seven months pregnant, and it's unsafe for her baby to be delivered so early — he's not even three pounds!
The solution? Kristina has to stay on hospital bed rest for over a month until the baby is big enough to be delivered safely. Talk about a summer bummer.
After a few miserable weeks in the hospital, Kristina finally lets go of her pent-up emotions and has a total breakdown about how much she misses Todd. So heartbreaking, someone pass the tissues!
Luckily, Kiki's friends decide to cheer her up with a surprise baby shower in the waiting room, and even better? The baby has grown enough that it's safe to give Kristina a c-section!
Welcome to the world, Baby Lukas!
Homeward Bound!
Kristina's head-over-heels in love with her baber, and she spends every moment she can with him until she's discharged from the hospital. Poor gal lives almost an hour away from her little dude, and being apart from him brings up some painful memories about the day Todd died.
Luckily, Baby Lukas is able to come home after three weeks in intensive care, and everyone can't believe how much he looks like Todd! Sigh ... bittersweet.
As much as Kristina loves her kiddo, she still misses her fiance, so she starts seeing a therapist to dish her feelings. Shockingly, Kristina says she wishes she had died with Todd, and describes herself as "numb."
The therapist encourages her to get her emotions on the table, so she meets up with Todd's mom and reveals her plans to go back to school.
Get it, gal pal! Todd would definitely be proud.

In the user agreement, they should insert a clause that says you may not mention Drew Stubbs and Tim Lincecum in the same thread. Lincecum is the second coming of Christ. We get it. This wasn't a Lincecum poll, though. It was a Stubbs poll.
In 1985, the Reds drafted Barry Larkin, but look at what a waste of a draft pick was. I mean, the Reds could have had a guy with over 700 homeruns in Barry Bonds. Wow!
Every draft pick is a crap shoot. Nothing is guaranteed. For all you know, Lincecum's arm could fall off and Stubbs could be a future Hall of Famer. I know it's interesting to talk about 'could've been's, but there's no point when it's so early into their careers. Would I rather have Lincecum on the Reds right now? Absolutely. In five years? I have no idea.

Just over a year ago, on the wind-swept shores of Mexico's Pacific Coast, a young woman stood in the surf and looked out towards the horizon.
Only 24 hours before, she'd been in Antarctica, one of the coldest and most impenetrable places on earth. A place where, in the Autumn, the Southern Polar Lights make the sky dance above the changing colours of the snow algae, blooming in hues of pink and green.
Now though, as the outline of a boat sails into view, she smells the salt air and readies herself to board for a journey which will take her to one of the most hostile, rat-infested places in the Pacific – Clipperton Island.
Katherine Dunlop, 27, is a scientist, researcher, scholar and diver. She's also an adventurer.
"I had such an amazing experience on the expedition, it wasn't like anything I had done before," insists Katherine, brushing a wild tendril of hair behind her ear. "I've been on science trips before, but this was something different."
Dressed in an ocean-blue T-shirt, cycle shorts and hiking boots tied with scraps of bohemian cloth, Katherine looks every inch an explorer.
She's already climbed aboard our Blog Boat with complete ease and seems perfectly happy to be floating along a canal in Glasgow.
"I never thought the canal in Glasgow could be so exciting," she laughs. "I spent a lot of my early childhood in Ruchill, so I know the canals quite well."
Katherine studied for her PhD in Glasgow and it was her relationship with the city, and those in it, which led her to attempt what is now being hailed as one of the most innovative expeditions in the world of science today.
"I first heard of it through an artist I met in Glasgow called Minty – Minty MacDonald," explains Katherine.
"I'm a marine biologist and I've been based at Glasgow University for three and a half years now doing my PhD in developing underwater cameras systems to monitor fish populations.
"It's really important in a Scottish context with the development of marine protected areas, because usually scientists will use trawling to gather up the fish to get their data which is destructive.
"In protected areas though, of course, that's not allowed, so they need to have a good method to monitor the fish which won't hurt them. I collect the images and build mathematical software to work out their numbers."
Katherine's ability to use these cameras underwater led her to a partnership with Minty, to assist with the artist's own project on the history of the Clyde.
In what might possibly be the bravest attempt by anyone living in Glasgow, the two women dropped Katherine's cameras into the Clyde to see what they could see.
"It was really, really murky but we saw a couple of eels," smiles Katherine. "It still worked out great for her project.
"Getting to know Minty though, she found out about the Clipperton Project which was running its first venture out to Clipperton Island in the middle of the Pacific – 1250 kilometres from the Mexican Coast. She was the one who let me know of it."
Taking a gathering of artists, scientists, historians and writers from all over the world, The Clipperton Project launched them all on a boat together towards the island.
In a groundbreaking move, the project brought creativity and science together and asked them to learn from each other.
"The Clipperton Project got together artists and scientists to go to this isolated island to learn from each other about their different ways of approaching similar research," explains Katherine.
"Scientists and artists from all over the world applied. One of the artists at Glasgow Sculpture Studios was chosen and I was lucky enough to get in, too.
"I used my camera systems to look at the fish fauna on the coral reefs – fish that aren't found anywhere else in the world. I felt like I was more excited about the learning, having all this input from different areas."
Clipperton itself has a reputation as one of the most treacherous islands in the Pacific with only two possible landing sites for ships to moor near her.
It has no drinkable water and after being deserted by its last residents in 1917, is now only largely home to poisonous crabs and rats left over from sinking ships.
It does, however, have unique fauna – and worryingly, is a perfect example island for scientists wishing to study humanities impact on the world.
As Katherine explains: "Two things that made the biggest impression on me was when we first arrived. We'd been travelling for eight days on a sailing boat. We hadn't seen any other boats at all, then suddenly there were four massive Tuna trawling boats on the reef.
"They should have been miles away and it was a shock to see it happening. As a scientist you hear about it and you know it goes on. But to see the destruction in front of you was a really big impression on me.
"The second thing was that the island was covered in plastic.
"This beautiful island, so far away from humanity, was covered in plastic bags, bottles and rubbish.
"It was rubbish that had washed up there from all over the world. You could tell by the writing on the labels that it had come from many different countries."
As the Clipperton Project summarised in their findings: "Clipperton Island allows us to reflect upon the impact man is having upon the environment in a location that has never sought the presence of humans, but instead has ceaselessly rejected it."
The research and findings of Katherine and her team are now going into an education project which is about to go on tour throughout Scotland's waterways.
"Bringing those stories back to people to make them aware of their impact on our oceans is so important," explains Katherine.
"I'm now involved with Floating Lab as part of this, which the Clipperton Project set up as an education tool.
"We're travelling the water throughout Scotland this summer and this weekend we're in Glasgow. We've got cycling expeditions where people come along the canal to where we have a canal boat moored at Applecross.
"We have workshops and events on the boat such as underwater cameras and plankton netting where kids can see and collect beasties from the canal.
"We have creative mapping and unconventional orienteering – nothing ordinary of course. Plus we have all the artists and scientists on the boat so they can talk about the adventures they've been on."
Launching at Applecross canal in Glasgow as part of the Glasgow Science Festival, the Floating Labs will move around the country, eventually ending up in Edinburgh using a canal boat donated by Scottish Canals.
The first events include an explorer's course at Lambhill Stables on June 22 and underwater cameras at Maryhill on June 23 before the boat heads to Clydebank and Bowling Basin and eventually Edinburgh in September.
"And then I'm off to California," exclaims Katherine. "My mother never knows where I'm going to be next," she says with a grin.
"I've just finished my PhD so I'm going to be working at Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute in California, so I'll be working there as a deep-sea marine biologist there in the Pacific.
"I always love coming back to Scotland though and she always reminds me how great she is.
"I think I'll keep travelling and adventuring though for a while yet."
And with five major oceans in the world to explore, there's no doubt this Glasgow girl will have a wealth of treasures and adventures to discover.

Rudy Giuliani is playing the role of a contortionist in his attempts to convince enough pro-life voters to support his presidential candidacy.After an unblemished record as a pro-choice mayor of New York City (if you don't count the ''blemish'' of babies not allowed to live), Giuliani surprised a lot of people when he said if he is elected president he would name only ''strict constructionists'' to the Supreme Court. That sounded pretty good to some, until Giuliani added last week during a CNN interview that he thinks a person who believes the Constitution should be interpreted as written could also vote to uphold Roe v. Wade and that he supports public financing of abortions for poor women who want them. Twisting himself even further, Giuliani said denying a poor woman tax dollars to pay for an abortion would deprive her of a ''constitutional right.'' While the Constitution guarantees freedom of speech and a free press, it does not follow that the government should buy me a newspaper if I can't afford one. And as a strong supporter of Roe v. Wade, why would Giuliani name judges who oppose it? Would a pro-life candidate be credible if he promised to name only judges who read into the Constitution whatever he or she wished? Giuliani claims that Roe v. Wade established a ''constitutional right'' to abortion. The Court, unable to find that ''right'' clearly stated anywhere in the Constitution, finally concluded that it was implied in either the 14th Amendment, which protects ones right to privacy, or in the ''penumbra'' of the Bill of Rights. Abraham Lincoln dealt with the danger of reading into the Constitution ideas and supposed rights that are not there in his brilliant speech at Cooper Union in New York on Feb. 27, 1860. Addressing the issue of slavery and whether it should it be allowed to spread to territories outside of those states in which it was then practiced and rebutting Sen. Stephen Douglas' assertion that the Founders intended ''popular sovereignty'' to determine such things, Lincoln said: ''An inspection of the Constitution will show that the right of property in a slave is not 'distinctly and expressly affirmed' in it (Chief Justice Roger Taney's majority opinion in Dred Scott contends that it was). Bear in mind, the judges do not pledge their judicial opinion that such right is impliedly affirmed in the Constitution; but they pledge their veracity that it is 'distinctly and expressly' affirmed there - 'distinctly,' that is, not mingled with anything else - 'expressly,' that is, in words meaning just that, without the aid of any inference, and susceptible of no other meaning.'' Lincoln's point was there are no distinct words in the Constitution expressing the right of a human to own another human. The Taney Court had to misread the Constitution in order to assert such a ''right,'' which is what the Court did in Roe v. Wade a century later. If Giuliani believes in a strict construction interpretation of the Constitution, he could not support abortion, because a strict constructionist does not find language permitting it. For him to take the position he does on abortion and then to say he would nominate strict constructionists to the bench twists him and the law into a pretzel. Giuliani says people who don't like his position do not have to vote for him. Many social conservatives who view abortion as a make or break issue are likely to follow his advice.

Triton Men's Soccer Team is National Tournament BoundOctober 30, 2012
Entering the season many believed that this would be a rebuilding season for the Triton College men's soccer program. Tom Cholewa stepped down as head coach after a successful four-year run and handed the reins to his assistant, Piotr Sliwa, who took over the top job.
But instead of rebuilding, the Trojans reloaded. Despite not being nationally ranked all season long, the Trojans even exceeded the expectations of their first-year head coach by advancing to their 3rd NJCAA national tournament in the last five years after an exciting 2-1 overtime win over Anoka-Ramsey Community College (Minn) Oct. 27 at Dominican University in River Forest to claim the District C championship.
"Making the national tournament this season definitely surpassed my expectations," Sliwa said. "But I give the guys all the credit; they worked really hard at practice and got better which each game. Now we have a week to prepare and know we'll be ready to compete at nationals."
The Trojans have won 13 straight games after losing their season opener to College of DuPage and will play Suffolk County Community College out of Sheldon, N.Y. in a national quarterfinal game Thursday, Nov. 7 at 5:30 CST in Herkimer, N.Y. The Sharks are currently ranked 4th in the nation with a 17-2 record.
However, ranking has not phased Triton who played a 103 minute match against an Anoka-Ramsey squad who was ranked 9th in NJCAA Division III poll. The Trojans struck first in the 35th minute as Brian Tapia (Morton) found the back of the net off an assist from Rolando Zuniga (St. Joseph).
Triton did its best to protect the one-goal advantage but the Rams who controlled play most of the second half got the equalizer with 19 minutes to play. The Anoka-Ramsey goal was the first tally allowed in the last five games by the Trojans.
In the first 10 minute overtime session, goalie Mateusz Nosek (Steinmetz) made a pair of saves to keep the game tied. The stellar play in goal by Nosek who recorded 11 saves gave the Triton offense their chance as Piotr Franczek (Leyden) scored the game-winner in the 103rd minute off a terrific set-up by All-American candidate Gewargis Samuel (Mather) which sparked a mass celebration on the field.
The district title topped off a week which saw Triton win an unprecedented fifth consecutive Region IV title Oct. 24 in Buffalo Grove by virtue of a 4-0 win over Joliet Junior College. The regional championship run surpassed the mark by Trojans teams from 1985-88.
