How To Match Your Hairstyle And Dress Neckline Perfectly
Posted on November 02 2015
Every part of your look matters when putting on a bandage dress. From the top of your head to your toes you need to pull your look together in unique ways that match your style, bring out your personality, and give you a feminine none hussy sex appeal. Just like choosing shoes for your dress you must consider also choosing your hairstyle. Opt for an updo and the look may tiptoe into being too formal or go for a free flowing look and it may make you appear unkept.
The most important part of choosing hairstyles to wear with your bandage dress is to consider these three major factors:
- Your mood - if you are feeling flirty and fun then your hairstyle should reflect this by incorporating colorful clips and braids. Likewise if your mood is sober and sweet than sweeping ponytails full of curls is a better option.
- Your neckline - your dress was designed to achieve a particular look that is both flattering and trendy. If your dress shows lots of skin you won't want to hide any and thus need to choose an updo or half-up-half-down style.
- Your dress length - the length of your dress determines how conservative or flirty you want to be and influences your hairstyle in order to keep the look fluid. Longer lengths are more conservative and modest while shorter lengths are designed to tempt all the boys.
We've compiled a brief guide featuring our most famous bandage dresses and their necklines. The neckline of your dress likely ranges from halter styles to sweetheart to strapless. Each neckline works well with a variety of unique and versatile looks, however, to bring out the best in your dress and complete the look you want to achieve you must choose a hairstyle that flatters your neckline rather than conflicts or conceals it.
As a general rule necklines that are more elaborate and detailed work best with hairstyles that are pulled away from the face so that the dress is easily appreciated for its intricate and feminine design. While necklines that are more simple such as a strapless or sweetheart cut tend to be more versatile and depend on other factors we've mentioned: your mood and length.
High-necked Bandage Dresses
High-necked bandage dresses are designed to wrap around the base of your neck. These dress designs include turtlenecks and halter styles. You have really one primary option for these dresses and that is an updo. An updo for this dress style allows you to display your dress in the most flattering and stylish way according to the design.
If your hair is short to chin length feel free to wear it down. Consider blow drying it to give it an extra bounce. For longer styles consider choosing a center part, side part, or no part at all when you pull it up into a ponytail. Add a dash of smooth texturing balm for added control and to protect your part all night long.
To give it a sexy edge you can add some waves or full curls to your ponytail. Use a curling iron for these waves and curls. Separate your hair into parted sections of about three about three inches to achieve neatly overlapping waves and curls that fall freely. There are also pinned up ponytails featuring braids and buns to consider.
Bandage Dresses with a V-neck
The V-neck bandage dress neckline is sexy and offers nice glimpses of cleavage and skin. Depending on how plunging your neckline is you may consider only opting for an updo to ensure the style of the dress is not obstructed. V-neck dresses are best worn with half-up, half-down hairstyles. These hairstyles are designed to pull hair away from your face but give you a sweeping feminine style with loose locks flowing behind you.
The half-down, half-up is a classic combination that softens the angles and blunt lines of the V-neckline that sometimes happens. To achieve this look start by applying a smoothing cream on your tresses while they are wet. Then, blow dry your hair, till it gets to its usual texture, be it curly or straight. Take a few of the top layers onto the back of your neck, and pull them together, into a twist. You can use bobby pins or a hair tie to hold it in place. Moving on to the front, gently pull out a couple of tendrils for a soft and feminine look. For more half-up, half-down styles consider these.
Round and Square Necklines
A round or square neckline is designed to show off your shoulders while giving you a soft and flattering style. Most round or square dresses feature an array of sleeves including cap sleeves or long and short sleeves.
These necklines work best with free flowing styles that are simple with elaborate details such as braids, clips, or twists. Round and square necklines are best worn with your hair pulled off your collar or away from your face. In contrast for a sultry more exotic look free flowing curls around your shoulders easily complete such a look. For shorter hairstyles go for a pixie look.
To achieve a pixie look put gel on your hair and blow dry it using a hairbrush. Stick to only one direction while brushing your hair. Once it dries, you can use styling wax to work on your tresses, to give it a pixie look. Sweep up the side tresses onto the back, and any bangs onto the side. Separate the bangs along your forehead and twirl it in random spots, so there is a lot of movement.
Strapless Neckline Dress
Strapless dresses offer a sensual display of your shoulders and frame your face in femininity and subtle sexual invitation. Like square and round necklines the strapless neckline is versatile and works well with both updo and free flowing hairstyles.
With strapless dresses your hairstyle polishes and completes your look. The hairstyles you wear for strapless dresses is determined according to the look you want to achieve. For a sexy and stylish look go for an updo hairstyle that lets you show more skin. For a more conservative look wear your down in free flowing curls.
With strapless dresses, you want to accentuate your collarbone. Apply smoothing balm and blow dry your tresses whether you are choosing an updo or free flowing dress.
How does dress length and design affect your hairstyle?
As mentioned earlier dress length and design play a key role in your hairstyle because both create and influence your overall style goals. Dresses of short lengths are designed to be more provocative and thus should be worn with hairstyles that compliment your efforts such as feisty bangs, messy ponytails, or free flowing seductive curls. Dresses of longer lengths should be worn with more conservative styles such as slick ponytails, twists, or buns.
Each dress is designed to not only be flattering to the wearer but convey a message and style. Plunging necklines that show more cleavage convey a style of purposeful sexual invitation. These dresses are best worn with styles that give convey seduction such as just woke up frizz or hanging tresses.

Actually, after a cash strapped home owner defaults on their mortgage and other loans, the Banks would re-sell the homes to yet poorer families who would eventually default on their mortgage. The cycle would continue to repeat itself, thus making more profits for the Banks. There's no profit in selling a home to someone who can actually afford it. No money to be made there! The so called gentry own the banks. They don't need mortgages or home equity loans.

THE UNITED STATES, APPELLANT,v.ROSES INCORPORATED, APPELLEE
Nichols, Miller, and Smith, Circuit Judges. Jack R. Miller, Circuit Judge, dissenting in part.
NICHOLS, Circuit Judge.
This is an appeal by the United States from an order of the Court of International Trade (CIT) requiring the Department of Commerce to initiate an antidumping investigation, despite its prior refusal to do so. We agree with the CIT that the administrative proceedings are tainted by serious illegality, but disagree as to the remedy selected. We remand to the CIT for further proceedings in conformity with this opinion. 538 F. Supp. 418.
I -- History of the case
Roses Incorporated is a trade association of domestic rose growers and is accepted as having standing to petition, as it has, for assessment of antidumping duties against the importation of fresh cut roses from Columbia, South America. It filed its original petition with the Commerce Department on June 4, 1981, pursuant to 19 U.S.C. § 1673a(b)(1) (Supp. V 1981). That Department gave the matter immediate attention, being aware that by 19 U.S.C. § 1673a(c) it had but 20 days to decide what to do. It notified appellee's counsel that the petition was defective in its view, and he filed additional data on June 19, 1981. Meanwhile, an association of Columbian rose growers (Asocoflores) learned of the filing and advised the Commerce Department it was seeking disclosure of appellee's confidential data under the Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C. § 552 (1976). Additionally, the Commerce Department received letters from the Columbian Embassy and from Asocoflores containing data that traversed appellee's in some respects. On June 22, 1981, the International Trade Administration (ITA or agency), the arm of Commerce responsible in the premises, conducted an ex parte meeting with the Economic Minister of the Columbian Embassy, counsel for Asocoflores and others. The petition was discussed and objections to it noted. A study by PROEXPO, a Columbian body, was discussed but not then filed. On June 24, 1981, the ITA notified counsel for appellee to withdraw the petition the next day or it would be dismissed, but he could submit another petition if he wished. On June 25, 1981, it was dismissed, with proper notice in the Federal Register. The dismissal was on other grounds than those urged by outside objectors.
On July 13, 1981, appellee, instead of filing another petition, sued in the CIT. It prayed for a declaratory judgment that the agency negative determination was unlawful, an order to the agency to institute an investigation forthwith, and such other relief as the court might decree proper.
Under date of April 28, 1982, the CIT held that the ITA proceedings were illegal, on the ground that the Columbian government and exporters should not have been allowed to submit information or otherwise participate in evaluation of the petition. Upon "perusal" of the original petition of June 4, 1981, the court determined that it, with its supporting data, contained allegations making mandatory the commencement of the next or investigatory stage of an antidumping proceeding. Accordingly, the court ordered that the petition be reinstated and the investigation be commenced. This appeal by the government followed.
II -- Statutes Applicable
This case derives much of its interest from the relative novelty of the statutes to be construed.
The jurisdiction of the CIT to review the decision of the ITA not to investigate as aforesaid, derives from 19 U.S.C. § 1516a (Supp. V 1981), and from 28 U.S.C. § 1582 (Supp. V 1981). Its authority to act upon its conclusions, in an appropriate case by ordering institution of an antidumping investigation, does not seem to be challenged -- the issue being whether this is an appropriate case.
The manner of initiating an antidumping investigation, and the legal consequence of doing so, are completely recast in this legislation. The legal effect of a decision to conduct such an investigation is stated in 19 U.S.C. § 1673b, and does not include suspension of liquidation, except to a limited extent in stated "critical circumstances," until affirmative preliminary determinations are made as to a reasonable indication of injury to a domestic industry and a reasonable basis to suspect sales at less than fair value. These provisions were enacted as part of the Trade Agreements Act of 1979, Pub. L. No. 96-39, which repealed the former antidumping law.
In general, by § 1673a, the "administering authority" shall commence an investigation whenever it --
determines, from information available to it, that a formal investigation is warranted * * *.
or whenever an "interested party" --
files a petition with the administering authority, on behalf of an industry which alleges the elements necessary for the imposition of the duty imposed by section 1673 of this title, and which is accompanied by information reasonably available to the petitioner supporting these allegations. * * *
The administering authority "within 20 days after the date on which a petition is filed" shall --
(1) determine whether the petition alleges the elements necessary for the imposition of a duty under section 1673 of this title and contains information reasonably available to the petitioner supporting the allegations,
(2) if the determination is affirmative, commence an investigation * * *.
(3) if the determination is negative, dismiss the petition * * *.
Accordingly, an antidumping investigation must be commenced if the administering authority determines, sua sponte, that commencement is warranted, or if it determines that a petition, duly filed, alleges the elements necessary for relief supported by information reasonably available to the petitioner. Unlike previous practice, a petition may not be refused for filing on the grounds that the information contained is not sufficient to allege dumping. Rather, the petition must be accepted for filing and then the authority must determine within 20 days whether to initiate an investigation.
The first question we must decide is whether, as the CIT thought, the mere receipt of oral or written material from persons representing the anticipated targets of the investigation, or their diplomatic representatives, during the 20 days following the filing of the petition, taints a decision to dismiss with illegality even though the dismissal is based, as here, on other grounds than those urged by the said targets, at least ostensibly. One's possible first impulse to hold the error was no worse than harmless is replaced on study of the statutory scheme by an appreciation that the CIT judge was right in attaching to the transaction the significance that he did.
In the first place, he quotes some very telling legislative history, and we can do no better than to quote it also. It is a colloquy between Senator Ribicoff, Chairman of the Subcommittee on International Trade of the Committee on Finance and floor manager of the bill, and Senator Danforth, co-sponsor of the legislation, explaining the bill on the Senate floor. 125 Cong. Rec. 20172 (1979):
Mr. Danforth. Should not the administering authority, like the courts, look only to the four corners of the petition -- the pleading -- and the information filed supporting the allegations and not elsewhere?
Mr. Ribicoff. Definitely yes.
Mr. Danforth. Since, at this stage, it is not the intent of Congress to have ongoing an advocacy proceeding, petitions or information seeking to rebut the allegations should not be considered by the administering authority, is this not correct?
Mr. Ribicoff. That is correct. This is not to say, however, that the administering authority, like a court, may not take "judicial notice" of facts within the public domain.
Mr. Danforth. How much supporting information should be required of the petition?
Mr. Ribicoff. It is the intent of this legislation that the determination as to the information reasonably available to any petitioner be made in light of the circumstances of each petitioner.
Mr. Danforth. Should the "reasonably available" information requirement be the basis for the administering authority refusing to proceed with an investigation?
Mr. Ribicoff. No.
It is plainly implicit in the statutory language already quoted that a decision to dismiss a petition without any investigation will not be based on information from anticipated targets. In a spontaneously generated decision to investigate, the administering authority is to consider all information "available to it" which of course the target would always be happy to add to. The investigation then is to be made only if "warranted." Doubtless it would be an abuse to start an unwarranted investigation in such circumstances. But when there is a petition sufficient on its face, and as checked against other "facts within the public domain," even if investigation would appear unwarranted to one who knew all the facts, surely the investigation must still be commenced. How long it need be continued under such circumstances, we do not consider. This is the statutory scheme and appellant does not contend otherwise. Its carefully phrased brief urges no more than that the information from the targets could have been and presumably was received for consideration and possible use only after the investigation was under way.
Second, appellant invokes the presumption of governmental good faith. Kalvar Corp. v. United States, 211 Ct. Cl. 192, 543 F.2d 1298, 1301 (1976). This is a decision of a predecessor court binding on us.
However, there is no issue of good faith in this case. It is unchallenged that everyone concerned has acted in good faith, trying to accommodate to a new law which imposes new rights and new duties. What appellant is really talking about is the presumption of regularity of government action, a related but different presumption. See Citizens to Preserve Overton Park v. Volpe, 401 U.S. 402, 415, 28 L. Ed. 2d 136, 91 S. Ct. 814 (1971); United States v. Chemical Foundation, 272 U.S. 1, 14-15, 71 L. Ed. 131, 47 S. Ct. 1 (1926). Appellant says the presumption supports its assertion that the government officers did not consider the evidence they illegitimately obtained on June 22, 1981, because the law says they should not. It is really a presumption that what appears regular is regular, the burden being upon the attacker to show the contrary. It does not help to sustain an action that on its face appears irregular as here. We would say, here the presumption operates in reverse. If it appears irregular, it is irregular, and the burden shifts to the proponent to show the contrary. Here the CIT judge was clearly not impressed that the appearance of irregularity had been rebutted, nor are we.
Third, the receipt of material during the 20 days, from the anticipated target, frustrates the intended statutory scheme, even if the undisclosed intention of the authority is to ignore it until an investigation has commenced. On the one hand, if the statutory scheme is observed in appearance as well as reality, whether the investigation would appear warranted if all the facts were known, rests primarily on the veracity of the petitioner. That of the agency is not involved. We do not say, as the dissent imputes to us in a footnote, that the agency must determine if there is a reasonable basis to believe or suspect that merchandise is being dumped before an investigation is initiated. We say the contrary. If in the end the investigation proves to have been unwarranted, the reputation of the agency is not impugned. On the other hand, if the conscience of Asocoflores is clear, it can explain the initiation of the investigation to its customers as an event of no legal significance. Liquidation of duties will continue at the old rate with no addition for a dumping margin until affirmative preliminary determinations are made, as previously noted. It is not harmed in the eyes of its customers, who, it would appear, would have been used to dumping complaints by appellee, which had got nowhere previously, so far as our record goes. But if Asocoflores goes in and resists the mere initiation of the investigation, and it is still initiated, it will appear that Asocoflores has already lost the case. This is not at all the appearance Congress wanted. It is not giving the statute a chance. Therefore, we do not think it would put the agency in conformity with the statute if it persuaded the CIT that it received material from the targets with no intention of giving it the slightest consideration until after commencing an investigation.
Fourth, appellant attempts to find congressional approval of its action in 19 U.S.C. § 1677f(3) reading --
Ex parte meetings. The administering authority and the Commission shall maintain a record of ex parte meetings between --
(A) interested parties or other persons providing factual information in connection with an investigation, and
(B) the person charged with making the determination, and any person charged with making a final recommendation to that person, in connection with that investigation.
Dumping investigations do not include and never have included due process adversary hearings, but always have included ex parte meetings separately with the contenders. Obviously there is no intent in the Trade Agreements Act of 1979 to change this. Congress was concerned with providing interested parties with maximum access to information presented, and the requirement of recording ex parte meetings is one statutory provision reflecting this concern. But the language simply does not speak to the timing of what, done at the right time, would be a perfectly proper thing to do, provided a record was kept as Congress required. Appellee has an elaborate, but in our view, needless, argument to support this self-evident conclusion. Suffice to say that this provision, in view of the entire statutory scheme, does not persuade us that Congress sanctioned ex parte meetings with targets during the 20-day period of petition review.
Finally, appellant urges the sensitivity of dumping investigations and the need to conduct them in a manner to minimize the damage they could cause to our relations with friendly foreign countries. We are sure Congress was not indifferent to this factor, though appellant cites nothing from the legislative history of the Trade Agreements Act of 1979 to support its argument. We are sure the CIT is aware of it, as are we. However, we doubt if the Columbians would be very grateful for the hastily assembled ex parte meeting with their representatives during the running of the 20-day period if they were told, or read in appellant's brief here, that their arguments against commencement of investigation would be ignored in deciding whether to initiate one, and considered only later and for a different purpose. We think the foreigner would be better mollified if he were frankly told the statute as construed by the courts permitted ex parte meetings with him, only later on, and Congress had acted to limit if not avert the harm to trade that might have been caused by an unwarranted investigation, by providing that liquidations at the old rate would continue until affirmative preliminary determinations are made.
The next question we must decide is whether the CIT erred in ordering the agency to commence the investigation. Its position in substance was that the agency was obliged to commence it if "perusal" of the petition revealed that it included the necessary allegations, i.e., those that, if true, would establish the existence of a dumping margin. A corollary of this position would be that an attorney for a trade association who knew how to prepare a pleading could make it a mandatory or ministerial duty of the ITA to initiate the investigation, even though to the agency's certain knowledge, the investigation would be unwarranted. We have already shown that this would be true insofar as the information to show the investigation was unwarranted would have to come from the target of the investigation itself, and was not in the possession of the government on the filing date. This is not to say, however, that no screening of the petition with the aid of agency expertise is permissible, and that a private organization can requisition the investigative resources of the United States without the United States having a word to say about it. The CIT judge conceded, as the legislative history he relied on (see above) obliged him to do, that the ITA might screen to the extent of taking "judicial notice" of "facts within the public domain." He does not seem to have considered the potential magnitude of this concession, and its inconsistency with a holding that a judge could ascertain by "perusal" of a petition and supporting material, whether counsel for the Trade Association had used the right magic words and made it mandatory to commence an investigation.
Since the agency is to investigate sua sponte only if, on the basis of knowledge in its possession, investigation is "warranted," it would be absurd and inconsistent to say an outside party could compel an investigation the agency knew of its own knowledge would be unwarranted. If such an interpretation would be possible within the statutory language, it should be avoided. The language can also be read to permit the agency to assess the sufficiency of the petition in light of its own knowledge and expertise. The legislative history shows that something like this was intended. What information is within the "public domain"? Certainly, statutes, regulations, other Federal Register material, government statistics and publications. Certainly, laws, regulations, and possibly more, of the interested foreign government. Certainly, whatever assistance the agency offers, and Congress expects it to help a good deal. The Senate Committee said:
The committee expects the authority to advise and to assist private parties as appropriate, before they file a petition.
[Emphasis supplied. -- S. Rep. No. 96-249, Trade Agreements Act of 1979, 2 U.S. Code. Cong. & Ad. News, 96 Cong. 1st. Sess. 1979, 381, 449.]
The reference to "judicial notice" invites attention to Federal Rule of Evidence § 201, which defines what facts may be judicially noticeable.
(b) Kinds of facts. A judicially noticed fact must be one not subject to reasonable dispute in that it is either (1) generally known within the territorial jurisdiction of the trial court, or (2) capable of accurate and ready determination by resort to sources whose accuracy cannot reasonably be questioned.
Rule 803(8) is also to be noted. It deals with the admissibility of Public records and reports, and matter there referred to is admissible as an exception to the hearsay rule even if the "declarant" is available.
Our conclusion is that Congress intended the application of agency expertise, not only to examine the petition and supporting data for internal inconsistencies, but also to evaluate it in light of a wide body of other information, to the end that, so far as possible, the commencement of unwarranted investigations should be avoided. For example, only a statistical expert could tell what use of census import statistics was valid and what was invalid. A judge is not by virtue of his robe an expert on the use of statistics.
It is also evident from the text of the statute, that once a petition is filed, the 20 days for required action start to run and there is no provision for extension by agreement. If, as the end of the period approaches the agency does not know whether to say yes or no, but only maybe, it has to say no in order to preserve its position. If it said yes, it would have to investigate and the chance to consider further would be gone. This might appear to be thus a counterproductive requirement from the domestic industry point of view except for the expectation that normally the authority will advise and assist petitioners before they file.
This further reflects the use of agency expertise in screening petitions, and the expectation that petitioners will respect that expertise, and resort to it before filing, correcting if possible deficiencies that would be pointed out to them. A petitioner who did not resort to this procedure might expect an initial rejection as the agency would often have no chance to make its input into the petition to obtain needed revisions, and would have to reject. Such rejection would not be final as to the dumping complaint itself because the petitioner, instructed by the rejection, could file a new petition to correct the deficiencies in the previous petition.
In light of these matters, even when, as here, an agency has followed procedures tainted by illegality in some respect, it must as a general rule be an abuse of authority for a CIT judge to substitute his own opinion for that of the agency and order an investigation on his own, instead of remanding the case for agency determination according to correct procedures. See, e.g., S.E.C. v. Chenery Corp., 318 U.S. 80, 87 L. Ed. 626, 63 S. Ct. 454 (1943). There is no question of agency bad faith here and what the CIT should do in a case of bad faith is not here relevant. Everyone is trying to learn by doing how to operate under a novel and unfamiliar statutory procedure, casting everyone, petitioner, agency, CIT, and ourselves, in novel and unfamiliar roles. The agency personnel are shown by the record to be attempting in good faith to perform the screening function the statute, as we construe it, calls on them to perform. Even if they are mistaken in certain particulars, that is no warrant for taking out of their hands the decision that is still for them to make.
The CIT opinion seems to shuttle between saying the agency personnel have no role except to read the petition and act on it if facially within its own four corners, it meets requirements, and saying that the agency has required, contrary to statute, that the appellee supply information not reasonably available to him.
Under the former rubric, the CIT judge criticizes the agency for disregarding data submitted by appellee based on census reports, because this has previously proved unreliable in other cases. He says, unless the unreliability is --
Within common knowledge, so that the defendant [appellant here] can be said to be justified in taking what amounts to judicial knowledge of that fact, it should not be discredited merely because the same study contains data which proved erroneous as to other merchandise.
As we understand it, the appellee attempted to construct a mean or average invoice price for sales of Columbian roses for export to the United States, by use of the total numbers of entries, dollars earned, and quantities, in the census statistics. This would appear a novel and unexpected use of census statistics, and whether it is sufficiently reliable to form the basis of a decision to initiate an investigation, would seem a matter peculiarly for agency expertise. The average prices developed in this way apparently were lower than those obtained by appellee in its own commissioned study made in the country of origin. Appellee felt it had to submit the whole of this study, as part of the "information available to it."
The CIT also seems to say that a petition allegation is sufficient to mandate initiation of investigation because it alleges that roses from Columbia are being sold at less than fair value, a mere ultimate conclusion. Of course a sale at less than fair value is, in the simplest case, one where the invoice price on sales to the United States is less than the price on sales in the home market, after proper adjustments. The CIT criticizes the agency for requiring appellee to furnish statistics on prices in sales to the United States to support its allegations. This information, however, has been required for years under various antidumping regulations. See, e.g., 19 C.F.R. § 14.6(b)(2) (1958 Supp.); 19 C.F.R. § 153.27(a)(3) (1979). Current agency regulations require submission of United States price data only "to the extent reasonably available to the petitioner." 19 C.F.R. § 353.36(a) (1982) (emphasis added). This regulation is in no way inconsistent with statutory language or legislative intent. It may be noted that appellee did purport to furnish this information, both in its confidential survey report and in its census data. If appellee said the information was not reasonably available, that would be another case. Here, however, appellee submitted not one, but two sets of data to support its allegations. If it had been willing to re-petition as the agency wished it to do, possibly it could have obtained the information from the agency or otherwise settled on some form of presentation the agency would have accepted as reliable, at least for the limited purpose of commencing an investigation, which would determine only that a prima facie case had been made.
Even if the CIT judge's criticisms of the agency's positions were more valid than we think they are, it would have been more appropriate to apply something analogous to an exhaustion doctrine, and not interfere judicially until appellee had actually attempted to submit a revised petition and established that it could in no way satisfy the agency requirements and say what it had to say to get the investigation started.
IV -- Conclusion
We affirm the decision of the CIT so far as it declares that the receipt of representations by the agency, ITA, from the intended targets of investigation, or their representatives, were unwarranted in law when done. We reverse the decision of the CIT so far as it orders the immediate commencement of an antidumping investigation and other related measures. We remand for further proceedings consistent with this opinion. We do not require that the action be dismissed. The CIT may monitor future proceedings to assure that they are conducted in accordance with law.
In view of the time that has elapsed, we believe it would be appropriate to allow appellee to file, if it wishes, a new petition, which will start a new 20-day period to run. When the petition is in draft form, agency staff should be available to perfect it before filing, to the end that, if the agency again refuses to investigate after filing, there will be an issue really ripe for judicial review. The court may, if it wishes, require that the ITA staff in charge of the case shall not include persons who met with representatives of the targets of the proposed investigation and received representations by them.
Affirmed in part, Reversed in part, and Remanded.
MILLER, Circuit Judge, dissenting in part.
Although I completely agree with the majority opinion's conclusion that receipt of representations by the International Trade Administration from the intended targets of investigation, or their representatives, was illegal, I have concluded that the Court of International Trade properly held that appellee's petition satisfies the requirements of the statute, 19 U.S.C. § 1673a(b)(1), so that the petition should be reinstated and the investigation should be commenced.
The statute provides that ITA shall institute an antidumping proceeding if the petition alleges the elements of a dumping violation and includes information reasonably available to the petitioner supporting those allegations.
§ 1673a. Procedures for initiating an antidumping duty investigation
(b) Initiation by petition
(1) Petition requirements
An antidumping proceeding shall be commenced whenever an interested party described in subparagraph (C), (D), or (E) of section 1677(9) of this title files a petition with the administering authority, on behalf of an industry, which alleges the elements necessary for the imposition of the duty imposed by section 1673 of this title, and which is accompanied by information reasonably available to the petitioner supporting those allegations. The petition may be amended at such time, and upon such conditions, as the administering authority and the Commission may permit.
Within 20 days after the date of filing the petition, ITA is required by 19 U.S.C. § 1673a(c) to determine whether the petition alleges the necessary elements and whether it contains information reasonably available supporting the allegations. If this determination is affirmative, an investigation shall be commenced to determine whether merchandise is being sold at less than fair value.
(c) Petition determination
Within 20 days after the date on which a petition is filed under subsection (b) of this section, the administering authority shall --
(2) if the determination is affirmative, commence an investigation to determine whether the class or kind of merchandise described in the petition is being, or is likely to be, sold in the United States at less than its fair value, and provide for the publication of notice of the determination in the Federal Register, and
(3) if the determination is negative, dismiss the petition, terminate the proceeding, notify the petitioner in writing of the reasons for the determination, and provide for the publication of notice of the determination in the Federal Register.
Unless the ITA's determination is negative, the International Trade Commission (Commission) is to determine within 45 days after the date of filing of the petition whether there is a reasonable indication that a U.S. industry is materially injured or threatened with material injury, or establishment of a U.S. industry is materially retarded. 19 U.S.C. § 1673b(a). Then, within 160 days after the date of filing of the petition, ITA determines whether there is a reasonable basis to believe or suspect that the merchandise is being dumped.*fn1 Thus, 19 U.S.C. § 1673b(b)(1) provides:
(b) Preliminary determination by administering authority
(1) Period of antidumping duty investigation
Within 160 days after the date on which a petition is filed under section 1673a(b) of this title, or an investigation is commenced under section 1673a(a) of this title, but not before an affirmative determination by the Commission under subsection (a) of this section, the administering authority shall make a determination, based upon the best information available to it at the time of the determination, of whether there is a reasonable basis to believe or suspect that the merchandise is being sold, or is likely to be sold at less than fair value. If the determination of the administering authority under this subsection is affirmative, the determination shall include the estimated average amount by which the foreign market value exceeds the United States price.
The foregoing constitutes the screening process to weed out cases that are without merit.*fn2
The legislative history of the Trade Agreements Act of 1979 (Pub. L. 96-39, 93 Stat. 163) provides the guidelines intended to be followed by ITA in evaluating petitions -- those specifically relating to the virtually identical statutory provision (1671a(b)) on countervailing duty investigations.
Indeed, the Committee intends that the Authority will act upon all petitions which, based upon facts reasonably available to the petitioner, make reasonable allegations of the presence of the elements necessary for the imposition of a countervailing duty under section 701(a). Consequently, the Committee expects that the Authority will act upon most petitions, rejecting only those which are clearly frivolous, not reasonably supported by the facts alleged or which omit important facts which are reasonably available to the petitioner. The Committee views the rigor of the requirements of this threshold test as roughly analogous to the rigor of the requirements necessary to make out a cause of action for purposes of civil litigation. Furthermore, if the initial petition is dismissed because certain required information is not included or is not presented in a manner that is acceptable to the Authority, it is expected that the administering authority will direct the petitioner to possible sources of information.
H.R. Rep. No. 317, 96th Cong., 1st Sess. 51 (1979).
The majority opinion proceeds on the premise that it would be absurd to say that an "outside party" (albeit an "interested party" on behalf of an industry, as provided by § 1673a(b)(1)) could compel an investigation the ITA knows of its own knowledge would be unwarranted. However, Congress did not provide a "knows of its own knowledge" test. Rather, its guidelines are those quoted above, although it would be reasonable to conclude that rejection of petitions which are "clearly frivolous, not reasonably supported by the facts alleged or which omit important facts which are reasonably available to the petitioner" would avoid most "unwarranted" investigations. The point should be emphasized, however, that the intent of Congress was for ITA not to determine the relative credibility of conflicting evidence at the preinvestigative stage, as the majority opinion would do. Thus:
The committee intends section 732(c)(1) [1673(c)(1)] to result in investigations being commenced unless the authority is convinced that the petition and supporting information fail to state a claim upon which relief can be granted under section 731 or the petitioner does not provide information supporting the allegations which is reasonably available to him. . . .
The committee intends the determination as to the information "reasonably available" to a petitioner to be made in light of the circumstances of each petitioner. Information may be reasonably available to one petitioner but not to another because of differing resources or other characteristics.
S. Rep. No. 249, 96th Cong., 1st Sess. 63 (1979) reprinted in 1979 U.S. CODE CONG. & AD. NEWS 381, 449.
The Committee has long been concerned that petition requirements not be so onerous as to preclude petitioners presenting meritorious complaints from obtaining the remedy provided by the law. The Committee therefore intends that no petitioner shall be required to provide information not reasonably available to him. An evaluation of what information is reasonably available will be made on the basis of the resources of the individual petitioner. The petitioner will be expected to use reasonable efforts to collect information from public and industry sources.
H.R. Rep. No. 317, 96 Cong., 1st Sess. 60 (1979).
The majority's quotation of the colloquy between Senators Ribicoff and Danforth is particularly illuminating of the intent of Congress that ITA is to "look only to the four corners of the petition -- the pleading -- and the information filed supporting the allegations and not elsewhere." Nothing is said about "agency expertise" or what ITA "knows of its own knowledge." Judicial notice of facts in the public domain may be taken by ITA, but this does not include all facts in the public domain -- only those facts of which judicial notice can be taken. See Rule 201 of the Federal Rules of Evidence:
A judicially noticed fact must be one not subject to reasonable dispute in that it is either (1) generally known within the territorial jurisdiction of the trial court or (2) capable of accurate and ready determination by resort to sources whose accuracy cannot reasonably be questioned.
Finally, I see no good reason for overruling the Court of International Trade's determination that the allegations of appellant's petition satisfy the requirements of the statute and that the supporting information from both public study and private industry survey tends to support these allegations. The petition was rejected for two reasons -- because U.S. price data were not supplied and because of an apparent conflict between a Bureau of Census report (which supports appellant's allegations) and a market research report prepared by appellant, which explained why the figures in its report were not credible and that the figures were submitted merely for completeness in order to comply with its duty of disclosure. I would hold that, assuming the above-referred to guidelines are satisfied, evaluation of the information provided by appellant should be left to the investigative stage rather than made before an investigation is commenced.*fn3
Also, I agree with the Court of International Trade's holding that ITA erred in requiring appellant to furnish data on U.S. selling price in its petition, absent a showing that such information was "reasonably available" to appellant.

United States District Court, N.D. Illinois, Eastern Division
March 25, 2014
PAUL ENGLEHARD, Plaintiff,v.WYETH CONSUMER HEALTHCARE, LTD., and R.P. SCHERER CORPORATION, Defendants.
VIRGINIA M. KENDALL, District Judge.
The Defendants have moved to exclude the testimony of Plaintiff Paul Englehard's experts David Wingate and Dr. Mark Blitstein. This Court bases all factual findings in this opinion on testimony and other evidence received during the hearing held on September 25, 2013, and makes these findings solely for resolving these motions. The purpose of the hearing was to determine whether David Wingate could testify as an expert about an alleged failure to warn and whether Dr. Mark Blitstein could testify as an expert about the interaction between non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs ("NSAIDs") and stomach ulcers. This Court grants the Defendants' motion with respect to Mr. Wingate because he did not base his opinions on sufficient facts or data and did not identify any reliable principles or methods that produced his opinions. This Court denies the Defendants' motion with respect to Dr. Blitstein because he is qualified to offer his opinions that he based on reliable reasoning and that will assist the trier of fact.
A. Legal Standard
Federal Rule of Evidence 702 governs the admissibility of expert testimony. Daubert v. Merrell Dow Pharms., Inc., 509 U.S. 579, 588 (1993). Rule 702 permits an expert to offer opinions that will assist the trier of fact provided sufficient facts or data support the expert's opinions and reliable principle and methods applied to the facts of the case produced those opinions. Fed.R.Evid. 702; Ortiz v. City of Chicago, 656 F.3d 523, 526 (7th Cir. 2011). When assessing whether to allow an expert to offer his opinions, courts consider: (1) whether the expert is qualified to offer his opinions; (2) whether the reasoning or methodology underlying the expert's opinions is reliable; and (3) whether the expert's opinions will assist the trier of fact. Myers v. Ill. Cent. R.R. Co., 629 F.3d 639, 644 (7th Cir. 2010).
B. David Wingate
David Wingate is a licensed pharmacist who graduated from Drake University in 1975. He then worked as a retail pharmacist for approximately fifteen years. He has since worked in hospital pharmacy and did pharmaceutical research in the private sector. He currently works at the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago as a research pharmacist. Mr. Wingate has more than thirty-five years of experience as a pharmacist and is current with his continuing education requirements.
As a pharmacist, Mr. Wingate has administered various medications to patients. In doing so, Mr. Wingate reviewed health information to ensure that prescriptions were appropriate for patients and advised patients as to the proper methods for taking their medication. For example, Mr. Wingate has advised patients to take certain medications with food to mitigate side effects. Mr. Wingate is familiar with ibuprofen in tablet and gelatin capsule ("gel cap") formulations, its indications, and its administration. He recommends that one take the appropriate dose with eight ounces of water and remain upright to ensure that the dose properly moves through his or her body.
After reviewing Dr. Blitstein's assessment of Englehard's injury, a gastric ulcer in the upper end of the stomach, Mr. Wingate did research on his own to determine what could have caused Englehard's ulcer. He concluded that the quick dissolution, the potential of gel caps to adhere to one another and to the stomach lining, and the caustic nature of the ibuprofen as possible causes of Englehard's ulcer. He believes that the Defendants should warn consumers not to lie down immediately after taking Advil Liqui-Gel capsules, which is a gel cap ibuprofen formulation. He also believes that the Defendants should tell consumers to take the product with food, to take the product with water, and to rehydrate prior to taking the product if dehydrated.
Mr. Wingate concedes that he did not cite any published data sources in his expert report, refer to any data analysis he performed, refer to any methodologies he reviewed to reach his conclusions, or cite to published research, clinical trials, or scholarly articles in his expert reports. Instead, Mr. Wingate relied on his experience as a pharmacist. For example, Mr. Wingate refers to his practice at the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago, where the standard practice is to keep patients upright following the administration of tablet formulations of ibuprofen. But this experience has nothing to do with ibuprofen gel cap formulations, as they are not on the formulary at the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago.
And even with thirty-five years of experience as a pharmacist, Englehard's case is the only case Mr. Wingate is aware of where a patient suffered this type of adverse event after taking ibuprofen. Mr. Wingate contacted three associations that collect information concerning drug safety and did not learn of any particular risks associated with Advil Liqui-Gel capsules. Mr. Wingate does not cite any adverse reports, clinical trials, product advisories, or other industry materials that support his opinions. He even concedes that he did not have enough information to provide to his colleagues at the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago concerning purported risks associated with ibuprofen gel caps.
"[T]o be admissible, a medical expert's ultimate opinion must be grounded in the scientific process and may not be merely a subjective belief or unsupported conjecture." Lewis v. CITGO Petroleum Corp., 561 F.3d 698, 705 (7th Cir. 2009). Though not a medical doctor, Mr. Wingate is a licensed pharmacist who has been involved with patient care. Cf. United States v. Chube II, 538 F.3d 693, 697 (7th Cir. 2008) (recognizing pharmacologist with doctorate in clinical pharmacology as a medical expert). Accordingly, he is a medical expert who cannot "render opinions unless those opinions are based upon some recognized scientific method and are reliable and relevant under the test set forth by the Supreme Court in Daubert. " Lewis, 561 F.3d at 705.
Here, Mr. Wingate's has offered nothing more than speculation and conjecture. He concedes that he based his opinions on inferences he drew from the circumstances of Englehard's injury. (Dkt. No. 78 at 120:25-121:24.) He does not cite any scientific or medical literature that supports his opinions. ( Id. ) He is not aware of any similar cases to Englehard's ( id. at 95:5-9), he contacted several entities that compile information concerning drug safety and none reported any information that supports his opinion ( id. at 51:23-61:11, 95:15-18), and has not identified any reports of specific problems with ibuprofen gel caps ( id. at 57:14-59:22). In short, Mr. Wingate has not identified any facts or data that support his failure to warn opinion. He also has not identified any facts or data, other than Dr. Blitstein's opinion, that support his causation opinion, which he appears to offer in connection with his failure to warn opinion.
Nor has he identified any reliable reasoning or methodology that supports his opinions. He admits that he does not have any experience with issues concerning the labeling of over the counter products, to include NSAIDs. ( Id. at 126:12-23.). He also admits that he has not done the clinical studies necessary to determine whether a change to ibuprofen gel cap labels is necessary. ( Id. at 99:20-100:21.) Unable to point to personal experience or industry studies that support his opinion, Mr. Wingate has failed to provide any indicia of reliability as to his opinions. Therefore, this Court grants the Defendants' motion to exclude the testimony of Mr. Wingate.
C. Dr. Mark Blitstein
Dr. Mark Blitstein is a medical doctor. He graduated from Loyola University Chicago Stritch School of Medicine in 1976, completed his residency at Northwestern University Medical Center in 1979, and completed a fellowship in gastroenterology at the University of California San Francisco Medical Center in 1981. He is a licensed physician and currently practices as a gastroenterologist for the Northwester Medical Faculty Foundation in Lake Forest, Illinois. He has been a practicing gastroenterologist for thirty-two years.
He treated Englehard in 2006 after Englehard presented with a gastrointestinal hemorrhage. Englehard reported taking Advil prior to coming to the hospital. An endoscopy revealed an ulcer in his stomach that was bleeding. Dr. Blitstein had previously treated hundreds of patients for similar ailments.
According to Dr. Blitstein, medical literature indicates that ibuprofen can adversely affect the stomach by causing inflammation, erosion, ulcers, and breakdowns of the lining of the stomach. In this case, Dr. Blitstein opines that ibuprofen caused Englehard's ulcer because it remained at the very top of his stomach, where it was in direct contact with the lining of his stomach. Dr. Blitstein reached this conclusion because Englehard reported that he had lain down after taking ibuprofen and Dr. Blitstein previously had observed patients who presented with ulcers in an unexpected area after lying down.
Here, the Defendants' challenge Dr. Blitstein's opinions as beyond his expertise, lacking reliable reasoning or methodology, and not helpful to the trier of fact. But the Defendants' challenges go to the probative weight of Dr. Blitstein's testimony, not its admissibility. Dr. Blitstein is a board-certified gastroenterologist who treated Englehard's ulcer. He has experience treating other patients with similar ulcers. His education and experience qualify him to offer his opinion as to the cause of Englehard's ulcer.
Even though the endoscopy Dr. Blitstein performed was diagnostic as opposed to etiological, Dr. Blitstein reached a conclusion as to the cause of Englehard's ulcer by based on his medical experience in similar cases. That experience distinguishes Dr. Blitstein's opinions from other cases where the medical expert had not seen similar cases. See, e.g., Porter v. Whitehall Labs., Inc., 9 F.3d 607, 615 (7th Cir. 1993) (noting that expert admitted that, if his hypothesis was correct, it would be the first case where ibuprofen caused rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis). It also distinguishes Dr. Blitstein from Mr. Wingate in this regard. And it distinguishes Dr. Blitstein's opinions from cases where the medical expert simply relied on timing to conclude that medication caused an ailment. See Ervin v. Johnson & Johnson, Inc., 492 F.3d 901, 904-05 (holding that district court did not abuse its discretion by excluding expert opinion on causation premised on the temporal relationship between taking a medication and the onset of symptoms). Dr. Blitstein's reasoning is sound-several patients have experienced ulcers in rare places, and all of those patients experienced ulcers in rare places when they lay down immediately after taking medication, therefore lying down may have caused the ulcers. Edward Jenner used similar reasoning when he discovered the vaccine for smallpox based on his observation that milkmaids who contracted cowpox did not catch smallpox. So did Ignaz Semmelweis when he discovered that doctors should wash their hands before seeing patients based on his observation that the incidence of puerperal fever was lower when doctors followed this practice.
Whether he fully understands the mechanism implicated by his reasoning, whether medical literature contradicts his reasoning, and whether his education and experience lend credence to his reasoning are matters for cross-examination. "[W]hether the cause put forth by a qualified expert actually proximately caused the injury at issue is a question for the jury at trial; a district court should only evaluate whether an expert's conclusion on causation was reasoned and based on a reliable methodology." Gayton v. McCoy, 593 F.3d 610, 619 (7th Cir. 2010). At this stage in the litigation, Dr. Blitstein's education, experience, and reasoning are sufficient to render his opinions reliable under Rule 702.
Finally, Dr. Blitstein's testimony will assist the trier of fact. His opinions concern the cause and treatment of Englehard's ulcer and stomach bleed. The Defendants' concede that whether Advil Liqui-Gel capsules caused Englehard's stomach bleed lies at the center of this case. (Dkt. No. 58 at 1.) Dr. Blitstein's opinions, if credited, will help the trier of fact make that determination. Therefore, this Court denies the Defendants' motion to exclude the testimony of Dr. Blitstein.

Hello everyone,
I've been busily shopping for dresses, and I'm torn between two silhouettes… I really like fit-and-flare as well as slim a-lines. I found one dress I love that is a lace fit and flare by Kenneth Winston that would look beautiful with my mother's veil, as well as another a-line organza dress by Paloma Blanca that is beautiful (but would require a different veil). Both made my heart skip a little beat, but I think I prefer the lace Kenneth Winston; unfortunately, my mother told me she preferred the Paloma Blanca, so now I'm confused. Another issue with the Paloma Blanca is that it is really hard to find in my city… I'd have to drive a good distance to get it. There is also a ~$1000 price difference (Paloma > Kenneth Winston) but both are feasible.
Lace Kenneth Winston:
Me in the kenneth winston (not the best of photos and the sample was a few sizes too large) and my mother's veil… I'll be removing the blusher:
Organza Paloma Blanca:
I'll try to add a pic of me in the Paloma Blanca later.
Thoughts, ladies?

Didn't We Have a Lovely Time!, Hardback (October 2016)View all books by Quentin Blake
A heartwarming short story set on a farm from Michael Morpurgo, the nation's favourite children's author, with stunning illustrations from Quentin Blake.
US Kirkus Review » Seven delightful poems, together with wickedly deft, hilarious illustrations, celebrate noise-generating activities: tantrums, gleeful squeals, sorting pots and pans, yowling back-yard cats - even a bit of housecleaning ends in pandemonium here. Blake's ear is as good as his eye: his nifty turns of phrase are as much fun as his daft, hyperactive characters. Subversive, but never mind - "Join In!" (Kirkus Reviews)

Why does the story of Dorothy, the Scarecrow, the Tin Man, and the Cowardly Lion touch us? Like all great entertainment, their journey resonates. We see ourselves in the characters and likewise wish we possessed the power, the brains, the heart, and the courage to make our own dreams come true. So what are your dreams? What do you want? Is it a promotion? Improving a relationship? Rescuing a child? Finding a new job? Saving a marriage? Getting a degree? Finding the love of your life? Making a difference in your community? This book will help you get whatever you consider worthwhile in life.Simply put, when you unleash the power of personal accountability it will energize you in lifealtering ways, giving you a concrete boost that enhances your ability to think, to withstand adversity, to generate confidence, and to increase your own natural emotional, mental, and intellectual strength. Roger Connors and Tom Smith know this because they ve seen it work in their own lives and witnessed it in the lives of some of the most successful and influential people in the world.The authors first introduced this powerful accountability philosophy in the "New York Times "bestseller "The Oz Principle." Since then, millions have come to know them as The Oz Guys and they have gone on to help leaders all over the world teach and apply the principles you re about to learn. Principles that have generated billions of dollars of wealth along with a host of even more important results. Devotees of "The Oz Principle" have brought lifesaving medications to market, created better education in community colleges, greatly surpassed charity fund-raising goals, and improved medical practices in battlefield hospitals. In "The Wisdom of Oz," Connors and Smith present the practical and powerful principles of personal accountability in simple, down-to-earth terms that you can apply in your homes, schools, communities, churches, and volunteer groups. The book will help you strengthen family relationships, improve friendships, motivate children, increase value on the job, improve health and financial well-being, or achieve whatever it is you most desire.Drawing on engaging stories about those who have overcome great odds including South African president Nelson Mandela, Polish WWII hero Irena Sendler, and everyday men and women Connors and Smith demonstrate that by taking personal ownership of your goals and accepting responsibility for your performance, you also take control of your success.You will read stories about people just like you who learned to beat their struggles, like the New York area fisherman who fell off his lobster boat and was adrift at sea for twelve hours in the chilly Atlantic . . . but survived. You will learn the traits that allowed a college senior who landed flat on her face in a 600-meter race to jump up and win. Or a thirteen-year-old soccer player who moved from the bench to the starting lineup. You will discover that while no one will ever wave a wizard s wand and magically solve all your problems, there is a way to experience the near magical impact of personal accountability."
About Roger ConnorsRoger Connors and Tom Smithare co-founders of Partners In Leadership, the Accountability Training and Culture Change Company with thousands of clients all around the world. They are also the co-authors of the" New York Times" bestselling books "The Oz Principle," "How Did That Happen?," and "Change the Culture, Change the Game.""

Most Helpful
I loved this! I used red lentils, ground cumin, and hot salsa/picante sauce; also, I seeded the jalapeno and was happy with the amount of spice in the sauce. It's really delicious, and it was so easy to make. After cooking in the crockpot, I baked it in a casserole with noodles, with a little bit of shredded cheddar on top. Thanks for sharing...I will be using this recipe a lot!
Great working veg recipe! Really easy to throw together in the morning before work. I had it over pasta & liked it. Tasty. Will make it again. The additional protein from the lentils make it a great meal. Filling.
Just lovely! This was super easy to put together and it was cooked in my 6 quart crockpt in about 5 hours on low. I added a small bottle of hot sauce (was not quite sure what picante sauce was and did not see it at the store) and this was perfect for us: nice and spicy. We served this over spaghetti squash. Would make this again for sure. Thanks for posting!

Don't go with CyrixWeb
Do yourself a favour and avoid CyrixWeb like the plague - you really do get what you pay for. There are many tempting offers on the net that seem too good for the money, and CyrixWeb is one of them...wall to wall problems. I cursed the day I ever signed up with them - be very, very careful.
With virtual hosting, the team providing your hosting really need to have a good knowledge of the systems they are working with, and offer support to you at the highest level - because, lets face it - if something goes wrong, you can't fix it yourself. CyrixWeb fall short of this by miles. Just my opinion/experience of them obviously - but you have been warned.

Australia Is Investigating Videos For Mistreatment Of Teen Inmates
Several videos show guards spraying tear gas at young inmates chained to chairs in an Australian detention center.By Ben Lawson | July 26, 2016
A series of videos ABC Australia released shows at least two detainees in one of the country's juvenile detention centers being shackled to a chair, sprayed with tear gas and stripped.
"None of this is accidental, ... This is a deliberate policy of punity that they have chosen to prosecute against in the main Aboriginal detainees," said John Lawrence, a lawyer who has written reports on the treatment of juvenile detainees in the country.
The videos come from a facility in the country's Northern Territory, where 98 percent of detainees in youth detention centers are Aborigines, according to the Law Council of Australia.
