Far from being an enclosed fence to corner the poor or marginalized, popular economy is one of the founding pillars of a new course and way of functioning to replace the ignominious concentrating growth that punishes general wellbeing and the protection of the environment.
Those who dominate the world try to impose the notion that certain critical processes can only be developed in an unique way, such that allows them to reproduce the concentration of wealth and decisions. One of these impositions relates with the process of economic growth.
To sustain their privileges they promote as a dogma a single type of growth, the one they lead, claiming themselves to be the most capable or the only capable for that role. They do not make explicit that in such way the system that concentrates wealth and the consequent decisional power gets reproduced and, with that, also its tremendous consequences: inequality, poverty, environmental degradation, recurrent systemic instability, cultural submission, tax evasion and capital flight that sterilize domestic savings in their capacity of financing the investment required for obtaining full and equitable productive mobilization.
This trajectory of concentrating growth can only be sustained through trickery and repression as it is not possible to openly backup the interests favored by this particular way of growing. Of course, there are other very different modalities of growth orientated towards general wellbeing and protection of the environment, always belittled. In these options is where the critical variable of firmly strengthening popular economy is inscribed.
A dangerous reductionism
Neoliberalism does not pay attention to popular economy or, at most, it addresses it as a handout program unrelated with the macroeconomic policies that determine the course and way of functioning in our countries. That is, they maintain the concentration engines and, in an attempt to lessen their worst impacts, they promote such modest supports to popular economy that cannot remove it from the extremely hard situation in which it thrives for survival. It is not a solution that can revert the conditions that clutch popular economy.
On the contrary, this type of handout program is a supplier of residual technologies, nothing in terms of capitalization, thus perpetuating the small or micro scale; it ignores subordination and domination to which their punished members are subdued.
Popular economy is not an enclosed fence where the poor and marginalized are cornered but rather one of the founding pillars of a new course and way of functioning; a strategic space that generates equity and sustainability. It does not need scraps but rather the political commitment to be firmly strengthened. Within a political and macroeconomic change[1], this implies an action in two main levels. The first one relates with the economic and cultural context where popular economy develops and, the second one, refers to setting up an effective support system linked with the organizations that have been working with these populations and their small ventures.
Cultural and economic context of popular economy
It is worth beginning this section highlighting the critical work that social organizations do in popular economy communities. With an admirable commitment they do not cease to contribute to the clarification about what happens in the country and localities, why it is necessary to reinforce social collectives, to understand the complexity that is implied in having to relate with other economic actors and the State (sometimes open to them, others trying to manipulate them). From this web of power relationships, phases will emerge some where the need to resist these fateful moments will prevail and others where it will be necessary to learn how to seize better conditions for firmly strengthening the development of popular economy.
Popular economy communities are open to innovation and know how to adapt themselves to the changing circumstances of contemporary reality, while they uphold their values, traditions, and languages that shape their identity and self-esteem.
An unavoidable challenge is seeing how to be inserted in the productive fabric of the country and locality in which they operate. No one produces in a socioeconomic vacuum; there are no more completely autarchic spaces. Every actor, one way or the other, relates with a diversity of other actors. The issue that hurts is that in such relationship is where the limitations to access better opportunities and fully retain the value that producers from the popular economy generate take place. Other more powerful actors close growth paths while they appropriate a smaller or larger share of the result of their efforts.
To address these situations, it will be necessary for popular economy producers to enter promissory value chains and not those that are residual with no future and where the integration were of such nature that it could let them access cycles of expanded reproduction. A thorny question that relates with what follows in this section and the next.
Value chains are formed by diverse participants who distribute among them values that the entire chain generates. This distribution of results is made in terms of the relative power each participant holds. The largest power is exerted by leading enterprises of productive chains, what enables them to appropriate larger economic margins of their productive fabric as well as part of consumers' income through the imposition of prices and brands. Lesser power, though by no means negligible, is held by medium enterprises that provide inputs for leading enterprises or buy intermediate goods produced by the latter. On their part, medium enterprises relate with smaller ones, which, in turn, tend to relate with informal ventures of self-employed workers.
This differential in relative power allows for diverse types of power abuse. In contexts of low economic regulation, this situation prevails in every market and value chain. In other contexts, power abuses can be, to a certain degree, contained through state regulations to ameliorate the cascades of value appropriation. Other innovative solutions can be explored, such as those proposed by Opinion Sur in relation with establishing spaces for negotiation of margins in the distribution of results within the own value chains, with the mediation of the State as regulator and leveler of such uneven forces.
A highly important aspect is to define where to concentrate when confronting with the market-power abuses. It would be economically and politically hardly feasible and equitable to concentrate just in the lower level of the appropriation cascade (that is between small and micro) because the margins there are very narrow. Rather, it will be much more effective to simultaneously tackle the whole process of value appropriation in the entire value chain. As was mentioned before, the larger appropriated margins take place at the level of leader enterprises and, in a smaller scale, medium enterprises and the rest of the chain. Therefore, the importance of establishing spaces for price negotiations and other conditions (such as payment terms, biases in commercialization, impositions regarding stockpile and transport) for the whole chain. Otherwise, if were only to consider claims between small actors, we could end up facing poor against poor, or poor against others less poor.
In any case, it is important to recognize that the power abuses that lead to inequity and many times to the incapacity of value chains to fully grow, is not something inevitable. On the contrary, it is inherent of certain relation of forces that can and should be transformed starting from the base itself of the value chains and going up to the political level and general directionality of the economy that social forces can establish from the State.
Possible components of an effective support system for the popular economy
A complementary level to the abovementioned is having an effective support system for the popular economy. Here the challenge is to get appropriate instruments that, at the same time, are not carriers of other fundamentalisms among the many that overwhelm us. These instruments should be of real usefulness for popular economy communities, embracing the diversity of cultural and economic circumstances that coexist in each social space. What is appropriate is to have these instruments available while communities and social organizations will know in each case if it is favorable for them to use them or if they can identify better ones.
With this warning, we point out two support instruments that, in our experience, can be very significant:
- Developers of popular economy ventures
These developers should operate under the leadership of the organizations of the popular economy as instruments to support the strengthening of existent ventures and assist in the creation of new ones of larger scale based on the association of efforts. It is the task of each organization to define if it considers useful to have a developer and if so, which might be its profile, its scope and way of functioning.
Medium-size ventures facilitate the access to a progressive capitalization that, in turn, affects better management and enables access to more promissory markets. We are talking about management of excellence, appropriate technologies, retaining generated value to be applied to what venture participants decide. All these safeguarding values of solidarity, respect for the other, for the communities where they live and with which they relate, for the environment and a responsible participation in local and national affairs.
There is a great variety of associative modalities in the popular economy to address productive processes. Among other types, cooperatives; community traders; small-producers consortiums for purchasing supplies and providing services; community systems for stockpiling, processing, and transport; community holdings to integrate complementary ventures and explore opportunities for exporting; locomotive agro-industries; people based franchises; community supermarkets and new ones that may appear in the future according to new technological, political, and economic circumstances. Community talent is fecund and diverse its creativity; popular economies are open to innovation relying on their cultural and organizational traditions. It is senseless to constrict such diversity of communities and circumstances into some unique organizational form, insisting on the reductionism of preaching it as the best available option. It is not such the interest of popular economy that is permanently searching for experiencing new productive modalities.
In some cases of medium-size ventures, it could be advisable to hire experienced professionals in management, adoption of appropriate technologies, commercialization, logistics and stock management, among other fields of specialization. There, it will be of strategic importance to train community cadres that could work together in teams with hired professionals to promote own cadres of the popular economy at all levels.
- Specialized Trusts
A necessary complement to developers of popular ventures is having resources to finance the startup and operation of those ventures. One modality, among others, that could serve this purpose is the establishment of trusts specialized in financing popular economy. Their functions might include an investment line in new ventures' capital and another to assign resources to entities that provide credit for popular economy.
The capital of these trusts may come from diverse sources of financing depending on the prevailing circumstances in the countries and territories. What would be important is that non-commercial sources prevail because the criterion for assigning resources is not just profit but rather strengthening popular economy. Indeed, this does not imply granting resources as non-repayable because it is necessary to obtain modest returns to secure the sustainability and continuous operation of trusts. Capitalization of trusts can come from national and local public contributions, solidarity contributions from foundations and enterprises, foreign backups committed with equity and sustainability and, by all means, from the own operative results.
There should also be a relevant presence of representatives from organizations of the popular economy at the board level of these trusts.
A needed warning
It is not the intention of this article to provide recipes but rather to add perspectives to those who with a lot of effort work to strengthen popular economies that markets generally ignore or attack. Developers and trusts mentioned here are powerful instruments if properly conducted, but can also be the source of frustrations in the hands of the corrupt and dominators. Their contribution would even increase in a context of revision of value-extraction mechanisms that support and reproduce economic and decisional power concentration. That is, interventions should be taken to the level of public policies as an important factor that can contribute to reducing external vulnerability of the productive matrix while strengthening the support base of important value chains.
It is worth closing these lines reminding that the significance of the popular economy is not just at the strategic productive level. It is also part of the fight for overcoming the cultural and political submission that asphyxiates popular initiative and subtracts legitimacy from those who lead our captured democracies. The muddy substrate of present time demands conceiving other forms of being and living in society. To that end popular economy also contributes.
[1] . Contributions to the context change by Opinion Sur can be found in the books: Los hilos del desorden, Crisis global: ajuste o transformación y Democracias capturadas and in several articles such as Dismantle the concentration engines, A threatened world, And now what? What will happen next?, From inequality to systemic instability, Freeing captured democracies, What lies behind the fiscal deficit?

Acquiring new customers for your products and services is not an easy process for most businesses. Companies nowadays are looking for an edge over the competition, and a position in the market place that gives them the advantage. USPs are almost a thing of the past with most businesses struggling to define or communicate what sets them apart from their competition. This is why ESPs (Emotional Selling Points) are a great deal more powerful, and ESPs require a digital content based marketing approach to maximise opportunities.
At Elan Social we work with over 20 companies in building their online presence and sales opportunities utilising the power of Content Marketing and social interaction. These are some of the market advantages we have created for our clients…
- For all clients we have built a 'high engagement' allowing constant communication with customers and prospects
- We have been able to leverage sales using continuous high quality content delivered to customers via numerous platforms
- We build our clients brand on an hourly basis, not just daily, weekly or monthly
- We have established long-standing customer relationships, nurturing repeat sales
- This is a stronger level of repeat business than you wouldn't necessarily gain from traditional marketing channels
- We have pre launched products and services, creating early sales
- More personable relationships with clients, building brand loyalty
- Built personal branding strategies around key staff to strengthen customer loyalty around the whole brand
- Multiple channel delivery of content to meet with 'seven touch marketing' strategies
- Growing online databases of customers and prospects – growing daily!
- Lead generation through the power of leveraging content
- Created memorable campaigns that nurture a strong viral reach of content in front of the target audiences
- Built subscription data capture and response handling platforms to capture new prospects important contact details
- Created customer feedback surveys, so our client knows the type of products and services they need to deliver to induce sales
- Collaborated with third party non-competitive organisations that share our clients opportunities
The above covers a lot of our activity for our own clients, but activity requires tangible returns, and a positive effect on business growth. Listed below are just a few of those tangible outcomes…
- Increased footfall for three major sports and leisure facilities by at least 10+% year on year
- Increased food and beverage orders by over 15% at these facilities
- Helped a utility provider double its turnover in a specific target market
- Helped a B2B stationery and office product provider gain substantial orders via social media based enquiries
- A leading environmental services company have sold products and services through social media lead generation
- A large consumables company have gained substantial UK wide accounts via our product brand building strategies and promotions
- Helped a specialist association gain substantial exhibition and merchandising sales via a very active global twitter account
These are just some of the results achieved through our unique approach to Content Marketing and Social Media, but the interesting aspect around all of this is the clients will continue to grow year on year as their online database and brand recognition grows. Each client has now gained a foothold within their market place, and very often a foothold their own competition has completely missed.
Content Marketing is the marketing method for the future, and perfectly exampled by the new generations increasing demand for receiving their content and opportunities via digital mediums, notwithstanding the fastest growth on Social Media is the 50+ age group of course.
If you are yet to engage with your customers effectively online, call us to day to see how we can build the perfect Content Marketing strategy for your business.

Bickers teams up with Bennetts to offer discount on Squire security
Bickers has teamed up with British motorcycle security specialist Squire and insurance powerhouse Bennetts to offer discounts on Squire security products, with all orders fulfilled by Bickers dealerships.
New policyholders with Bennetts will receive a discount code for Squire locks and chains via email, entitling them to 20% off. Orders are placed directly with Squire and passed to Bickers. They are then, in turn, passed to the nearest Squire stockist for fulfilment.
The tie-up means Bickers' Squire stockists and dealerships get an automatic sale, with customers able to choose to collect in-store or opt for delivery. Bickers will also credit dealership delivery costs.
Bickers Managing Director, Derek McMartin, announced the news, saying "Motorcycle security is a prominent subject at the moment, with the spotlight really on the issue of bike theft. Bennetts have seen the benefit of working with Squire as the whole range is Motorcycle Gold Sold Secure; after all, the more secure the bikes they insure, the lower the premiums for the rider. Bennetts particularly like the fact the chain as well as the lock is Sold Secure Gold unlike many of the competitors in the market where only the lock is approved.
"This collaboration with Bennetts will help motorcyclists protect their machine from theft, first and foremost, but also helps boost sales and profit opportunities for our dealerships, all with minimal extra effort required. It's another example as to how we are doing our best to look after our partners while providing a service and value to the end user."
Squire is an independently-owned, family-run business that has been manufacturing and pioneering the development of locks since 1780. Each lock comes with a 10-year guarantee and is tested to the highest security motorcycle standards.
Bickers, as the sole UK distributor of the Squire Motolok range, is also offering dealerships a special starter pack that offers 56% margin, which includes 10 disc locks, four ground anchors, and a selection of nine chains and locks, plus a complementary display stand. Stockiest will also get extra discounts on all re-orders.

Dr Gupta handled Shivade's blows with quite some equanimity...
So it was often only Shivade down in the mud pit, egging and enticing the doctor to join the fight, while Dr Gupta cautiously kept to the sidelines, barely stepping a toe into the mud.
Vaihayasi P Daniel reports from the Sheena Bora murder trial.
Illustration: Dominic Xavier/Rediff.com
The sun had set and darkness had come to court by the time the intensely methodical, jumbo cross examination of Prosecution Witness 61 Dr Sudhir Kumar Gupta, by Peter Mukerjea's lawyer, Shrikant Shivade, ended at nearly 6.45 pm on Monday, January 20, 2020, in the Sheena Bora murder trial at Courtroom 51 at the Mumbai city civil and sessions court, Kala Ghoda, south Mumbai.
The six-hour 'cross' had been a fairly bumpy ride, with plenty of both expected and unexpected pockets of turbulence.
Further, there was much about Monday's proceedings that often muddied the waters and a simple picture did not emerge. Instead, a confusing multi-stranded narrative presented itself.
Rewind: Dr Gupta, professor and head of the department of forensic medicine at New Delhi's All India Institute of Medical Sciences, had been contacted by the Central Bureau of Investigation, in October 2015. with the request that he and his team submit a second opinion on a skeleton the police/CBI declared was Sheena Bora's, found near the village of Gagode Khurd, Raigad, rural Maharashtra in 2012, and exhumed in 2015.
That was not an unusual occurrence because AIIMS is often asked to weigh in on what is termed 'high-profile' cases.
Dr Gupta's 'testimony in chief' before the judge last Tuesday and Wednesday had not been particularly dramatic/electric or packed with any earth-shaking details, either new or old.
The team he had specially constituted at AIIMS to examine the remains concluded, in a report, that it was the skeleton of a woman of approximately 23 years and 158 cm +/- and the death -- in which 'asphyxia as a result of strangulation' cannot be ruled out.
This opinion -- based on 'elimination of associated causes of death' -- was pegged at having occurred three years before (they examined in 2015). These specifics approximately matched the specifics of Sheena's alleged homicide.
It was an extremely muscular, bicep-flaunting, Shivade, who started off his cross-examination of Dr Gupta, throwing out the punches at the forensic medicine expert as if he was undoubtedly the doctor and Dr Gupta at best a junior medical assistant.
This kind of role reversal, where the lawyer comes with enough professional tomes to scare the expert into wondering if he needs to redo his degree, is one of Shivade's prime battle stratagems.
They were not so unevenly matched, it would seem.
Because Dr Gupta, on the other hand, handled Shivade's blows with quite some equanimity, not getting hot under the collar. Nor going off track with long-winded answers or excessive irrelevant details. Or even throwing the punches back in this fairly engrossing bout of court-style mud-wrestling.
So it was often only Shivade down in the mud pit, egging and enticing the doctor to join the fight, while Dr Gupta cautiously kept to the sidelines, evasively, barely daintily stepping a toe into the mud.
In the highest moments of stress, he would twitch one hand or pause to take out a handkerchief and wipe his face (it was hot with the fans off and in proper Dilli style he was wearing a grey suit with thin blue checks).
But at the start of the 'cross' Shivade was on a charm offensive, several times referring to Dr Gupta as "Doctor Sahib" and commenting that he was a "very soft-spoken celebrity doctor."
That caused CBI Special Judge Jayendra Chandrasen Jagdale to muse, with a grin: "But you are a celebrity lawyer."
Bit by bit, Shivade's tone changed. At frequent intervals, he seemed to be, almost to the point of rudeness, strategically, testing Dr Gupta's medical knowledge, like how bones are measured or how many measurements are required or the formula used.
Or he would say: "Be quick. We have to finish today" or "My question is simple. Are you not able to understand?! And you are a gold medallist!"
Judge Jagdale would "Tsk, tsk" him or sternly reprimand with an "O Vakil Sahib", reminding Shivade that Dr Gupta was an expert and needed to be afforded politeness.
Confusion also often resulted when neither the judge nor the lawyer understood Dr Gupta's pronunciation of certain words.
Here were the main points of controversy or disagreement:
1. Shivade spent about 15 to 20 minutes trying to establish before the court a picture of an expert who had not actually done the legwork and was fuzzy about what his team had really done.
To that end the lawyer shot out questions, quizzing the doctor like: "Who dictated the report?" or "Who typed the final report?" and where and when was it typed, how long it took etc.
2. The lawyer wanted to know more about the books Dr Gupta had consulted and why he had not used the books he had.
Naming several top books, many (eight) of them on the lawyer's table in front of him, along with Gray's Anatomy in the courtroom, like British pathologist Bernard Knight's Forensic Pathology, he wondered why the doctor had not relied on what he deemed were the best books in the subject.
He also asked Dr Gupta to pinpoint at what exact juncture and date they had required the textbooks (more testing it would seem) and whether he actually had copies of the books or had got them from the library at AIIMS
3. Several questions followed asking Dr Gupta to name any other case the doctor had been involved in that was closest in its details to the Sheena Bora case ie identification of skeletal remains.
Dr Gupta could not recall any or even the cases he had been involved with before the Sheena Bora case that was about working with a skeleton. He did mention the Nitish Katara honour killing case and the Nithari serial child slayings.
4. Next was a scrutiny of the chain of custody procedures for articles under examination at AIIMS, an area where Shivade usually strikes gold.
Several queries later, the lawyer was able to establish that the articles/exhibits relating to a case (be they bones or samples or whatever) were not "kept under lock and key" although they were kept in Dr Gupta's department in rooms of the board members, that were "under lock and key", but the doctor could not remember if there was any AIIMS "protocol" for their handling.
Shivade, testily: "What is your reason for not remembering this fact?"
Dr Gupta: "I am not concerned with administration."
5. A critically relevant point that surfaced over and over again, at regular intervals, was the evidence of the workings or notes or minutes for the processes/meetings involved that lead the AIIMS "medical board" to make their conclusions.
Dr Gupta could offer no notes for any part of this process that had lasted nearly a month (from 13/10 to 9/11 in 2015). No written records for instructions or guidance given to the team when they visited the site in Raigad.
Or measurements of the bones examined or whether the bones had been weighed.
Or photographic results or notes of the facial reconstruction the doctors had attempted at AIIMS using plaster of Paris and putty.
He even agreed with the lawyer, at one point, that because of "absence of data, the findings arrived at cannot be objectively verified."
Everything had been verbal with no documentation to back up how the final report had been arrived at. The report itself, the lawyer accused, also apparently lacked these details -- enough basis for the conclusions.
Dr Gupta deemed them "unnecessary clerical work" that were not required.
Shivade pounced on that, much to Indrani Mukerjea's enthusiasm at the back. Indrani never misses a chance to do a bit of cheerleading of the defence lawyer via laughs, excitement, exaggerated nods of her head.
Shivade, almost apoplectic, for effect, asked: "Do you want to say measurement of bones by doctors is clerical work?" It later seemed it was more Dr Gupta's wrong choice of word and he meant "unmedical" and more anthropological.
It also emerged that AIIMS had relied largely on the results Mumbai's B Y L Nair hospital's forensic team had produced and that they had on most issues according to Dr Gupta "reiterated the same opinion with a little modifications by adding additional points."
6. Shivade, carefully worked his questions this way and that, to show that though Dr Gupta agreed that an "expert who is giving his opinion should be free from all bias" and his "end result" should depend on "scientific deliberations" there might have been some preconceived notions that could have been difficult to shake off. And therefore bias.
For instance, Dr Gupta said he had been vaguely aware -- "Just heard about some case" -- of the details of the case from the extensive media reportage at the time.
Secondly, the lawyer pointed out that the CBI's request to Dr Gupta mentioned that the skeleton was of Sheena Bora, aged 25, who had been 'killed by some drugs/sedatives and strangulation of her neck'.
Thirdly, Dr Gupta did not recall if he had spoken to the Pen-Raigad doctor who had conducted the first post mortem, Dr Sanjay Thakur, and though he concurred with Shivade that the 'doctor who conducted the first autopsy had the best opportunity to opine the cause of the death' he -- crucially -- did not remember what Dr Thakur had stated was the cause of death.
7. The lawyer quizzed the doctor repeatedly on the facts he remembered about the case. Be it whether he could recall if there had been any report they had perused on how the body had been found -- in the open -- or if a pH test of the soil had been conducted or how the time since death had been estimated.
Most questions drew a blank with Dr Gupta politely offering: "Exactly I do not remember."
8. While re-examining the remains, the AIIMS team had not conducted toxicology or DNA tests using their institution's facilities to see if the remains showed signs of poisoning or to see if all the remains belonged to one skeleton.
Instead, where required, they had asked the CBI to carry out the testing. Dr Gupta finally revealed, with an awkward smile, that they would require a court order to carry out their testing.
Shivade: "Did you tell them to get a court order?"
Dr Gupta, after a tiny uncomfortable silence said he had not because the CBI had their own labs.
Later, although Dr Gupta dodged the question the best he could -- even as Indrani giggled -- he finally admitted that till Monday he had not seen any toxicology report.
9. Shivade, then perforce, to create the courtroom effect he required, made Dr Gupta examine the skull that he had disdained from picking up at his 'chief' last week, for lack of gloves.
In an almost cinematic moment, Shivade, magically produced a white rubber glove from the jacket of his black coat and the lawyer seemed to challenge the doctor to have a go at it.
Caught off guard, the doctor mumbled something and then asked if the glove was from a sealed packet. Dr Gupta, not donning the glove, but using it like a pot holder or something, gingerly held the skull, looking at it uneasily, as if he had not held one in a rather long time.
10. Finally Shivade dwelled with great focus on a. Dr Gupta's assertion that reliance also on circumstantial evidence, given to them by an investigating agency, to determine the cause of death was fine and b. the declaration in the report, submitted by Dr Gupta and his team, that enumerated that there were basically 'four different causes of death' and through the process of elimination, because of absence of injury or fracture to the bones and blood on the bones, the causes got narrowed down, with strangulation one of the only options left.
The lawyer ran through several types of death where the skeleton would not sustain damage -- slitting of the throat, slitting an artery, burning, poisoning, acute subdural hematomas, a knife wound through the ribs (without damaging them) that could fatally wound a person if it slashed either the spleen, heart or liver, a less than 1m bullet that passed through the ribs.
While closing his cross, Shivade began to ask Dr Gupta about two incidents that allegedly affected his career record.
The first was about a paper that Dr Gupta had perhaps attempted to publish. And the second was about the book he had published, where Shivade said, portions had been "copied, even punctuations, commas and mistakes."
His former senior colleague at AIIMS Dr Tirath Das Dogra had accused Dr Gupta of -- according to Shivade -- "theft of a scientific paper" and had taken the matter to the Medical Council Of India. There was a move to have DR Gupta's name "struck off for the period of one year from the Indian Medical Register."
Dr Gupta emphatically denied the accusations, saying he would not lie under oath, still not losing his cool entirely, although his face looked dark and thunderous, He said several times in quiet anger: "You are demeaning me. I will not allow it."
He turned his back to Shivade, ignoring him, and began putting together his papers.
The judge reined Shivade in telling him it was "Jasta (too much)".
Dr Gupta pulled out a letter from his files from AIIMS that said he had "no major/minor penalty imposed" against him and no "vigilance case is pending or contemplated" and gave it to the judge.
Shivade's closing accusations were innumerable and strong: "You have no expertise whatsoever"... (You) did not conduct any examination. You are a handpicked expert of CBI... All findings regarding cause of death, age, sex etc are false and this is the reason as to why the record of measurements have not produced before court... Exclusion of other causes of death is highly unscientific and unheard in the history of forensic medicine anywhere in the world."
Dr Gupta did not reply, except at one point to say that his methods were scientific.
The lawyer then thanked the doctor and there was a sudden release of tension in the room. Dr Gupta grinned at Shivade and exited the witness stand, not too worse for the wear.
He said afterwards, without heat, that it had been a satisfactory cross examination and that he had been asked to depose as the senior-most member of the AIIMS team, to make impact in a critical case, but a lot of the detailed work had been done by his team members with his role being more supervisory or as a guide.
Dr Gupta was later spied smoking a cigarette outside the court, his jacket off and resting folded on his arm.

The preview, due for launch the first week of September, will give potential customers their first chance to evaluate the results of the combined effort by Turbolinux and the SCO Group (formerly Caldera International) in the United States, Conectiva in Brazil, and SuSE in Germany to combine their software efforts to create a uniform version of the operating system for corporations.
The UnitedLinux distribution is based on SuSE's Enterprise Server (SLES) product, but the public beta should reveal how technology has been integrated from the group's other three partners. Version 1.0 of the distribution is expected in November.
As the new software is tailored for the enterprise, its main competition will be Linux software distributor Red Hat's Advanced Server; both are designed to downplay Linux's traditional do-it-yourself flexibility in favor of rock-solid stability. However, UnitedLinux will deliver more for the money than Advanced Server, according to Gregory Blapp, SuSE's vice president for international business and a member of UnitedLinux's board.
"What Red Hat is doing is taking the box, charging $600 more and saying, 'Now you can call us for 12 months,'" Blapp said. "The product is almost the same--not 100 percent--but very close."
SuSE's Enterprise Server and UnitedLinux have had many more resources sunk into customizing the software the way that hardware vendors such as IBM and Hewlett-Packard want it, he said.
The response to the first UnitedLinux beta, which was released only to large UnitedLinux customers, was positive, Blapp said.UnitedLinux members have all agreed to use practically the same software, down to the installation and configuration tool, which will be SuSE's Yast2. Originally, the members were planning to customize each version of the UnitedLinux distribution, but customers said that this made no sense, Blapp said.
Differentiation between the members' UnitedLinux products will mainly come down to branding, with each partner deciding how prominently to feature the UnitedLinux brand. In Germany, where SuSE is well known, SuSE said it will place less emphasis on that brand, but may "put a bigger UnitedLinux sign on the box" in markets such as the United Kingdom.
UnitedLinux shifts, but stays
Recent changes at the SCO Group and Turbolinux that suggested the UnitedLinux partners might be moving away from Linux have not altered the group's direction, Blapp said. Last month, the SCO Group changed its name from Caldera International to reflect its main business, Unix. However, the shift has not lessened the company's commitment to UnitedLinux, Blapp said.
Last month also saw Turbolinux sell its Linux business and name to Software Research Associates, a Japanese company. This should increase the company's focus on its core market in Asia, Blapp said.
UnitedLinux said it will name a general manager for the United States team next week. SuSE's vice president for development, Markus Rex, said that the regional expertise of companies such as SuSE, Conectiva and Turbolinux would help lure big business customers to UnitedLinux.
"Now we can start going into corporate clients by the front door (and start) making Linux a part of their strategic business plans," he said. "A lot of clients have been waiting for this."

Citroen has released the first details about the 2014 Grand C4 Picasso.
Citroen has released the first details about the 2014 Grand C4 Picasso.
Designed to offer a "pioneering balance between interior spaciousness and flowing body styling," the model clearly resembles its five-passenger counterpart but is distinguished by a revised front fascia, distinctive taillights and a unique roof rack that blends into the D-pillar. The model also features a panoramic glass roof and 16-, 17- or 18-inch alloy wheels.
The interior carries over from the C4 Picasso which means it's nicely equipped with satin chrome trim, gloss black accents and LED ambient lighting. There's also an infotainment system and a 12-inch "panoramic HD" display that acts a digital instrument cluster.
Thanks the EMP2 platform, the Grand C4 Picasso has class-leading second and third row spaciousness as well as a cargo capacity in excess of 700 liters (24.7 cubic feet). The platform also helps to enable the model to weigh 100 kg (220 lbs) less than its predecessor.
Under the hood, a variety of different engines will be available including the e-HDi 90 Airdream, e-HDi 115 and BlueHDi 150. They can be connected to a six-speed manual or a new 6-speed Efficient Tronic Gearbox that "modulates gear change speeds more precisely, based on driver input, for improved performance and comfort."

Lore[edit | edit source]
|What we now call The Sprawl was once an inner city residential district of Freeport. As the city grew, those with money moved to nicer areas, leaving behind the dregs of society. When The Rending struck, this place was hit pretty hard.
There was no point in rebuilding. New residential districts like Big Bend and Scale Yard had already been established, and there was simply too much damage to justify the expense. The old windmills that used to supply some of Freeport's energy were obsolete, so there was nothing worth saving here. The Overlord decided to leave this place as is.
The Sprawl is a ruined former residential district of Freeport populated by bottom-feeding gangs and other vagrants and ruffians who aren't citizens of Freeport and aren't allowed in the city. Originally, the area was under a three-way turf war between the Giantslayers, the Black Magi, and the Guttersnipes.
However, this changed when the zone was revamped in LU19. Dervishes from The Commonlands moved in and took over the Guttersnipes. The Dreadnaughts responded to the Dervish encroachment by entering the Sprawl and taking over the Giantslayers. The Dreadnaughts now recruit adventurers to continue their agenda against the Dervishes and Black Magi.
Travel[edit | edit source]
The Sprawl is small enough that it can be traversed on foot. Good and Exiled adventurers can safely access the zone via any Freeport Mariner's Bell. The gate to The Commonlands is well guarded on The Commonlands side but safe on The Sprawl side, while the gate to The Ruins is guarded on both sides by level 20^^^ guards.

text: EDX – No Xcuses 240 (Presented by ElectricSloth.com) Brian ManningThursday, October 8, 2015Deep HouseHouse0 Comments Swiss house maestro, EDX, has been a favorite of both deep house and progressive house lovers for years. However, it wasn't until recently that his hard work begun to pay off when his remix of Sam Feldt's "Show Me Love" ran viral through the Internet and radio waves.

We were posting our location on "Kids For Sail" (a website for live-aboard yachts around the world), and the Izula family that had two boys (7 and 10) noticed we were there. Their names are Boden and Triston. They decided to stop by, and we became good friends.
Then, a family that we have known for a long time came over from Jupiter, and we went out to eat at lunch. After that, it was training day! My dad went first, then Mom. Wile they practiced driving, I practiced radioing the bridges. They both went up the New River. Then, my sister and I practiced driving the boat. All we did was drive about a ¼ a mile.
The next week, we went to the Izula family's boat for dinner. After that, we met our new friends at the Science Explorium to see a solar eclipse. We went inside to see all the scientific exhibits. Then, it was eclipse time! You have to have glasses to see the eclipse with your eyes, but the line to get them was super long, so we used our friends' glasses. After that, they came to our boat again for dinner. Then, for the rest of the week: work, work, work, and work!

- Boeing's sell-off since the Ethiopian Airlines crash is causing the Dow Jones Industrial Average to underperform the S&P 500.
- The indexes had tracked each other closely all year, but the Dow is now underperforming by about 2%.
- Boeing carries more than 10% of the weight of the Dow, which is weighted by company share prices.
- Watch Boeing trade live.
The sharp sell-off in shares of Boeing has caused the Dow Jones Industrial Average to lag behind the S&P 500 since the March 8 crash of an Ethiopian Airlines flight that was using the aeroplane manufacturer's 737 Max aircraft.
Sunday's accident was the second crash of a 737 Max aircraft in five months, causing airlines and governments around the world to ground the planes, which command the majority of Boeing's order book.
Boeing shares have fallen more than 15% from 2019 peak, shaving off 461 points from the Dow. That has caused the index, which more or less tracked the S&P for the year, to lag by about 2%. Currently, the S&P 500 is up about 12% year-to-date and the Dow is higher by 10%.
The index's outsized loss since March 10 is being driven by Boeing having the heaviest weighting, over 10%, among the Dow's 30 stocks. The Dow is a price-weighted index, meaning the company with the highest share price, Boeing, has the heaviest weighting. Boeing's stock price is the highest in the index and the only one over $US350. Previously Boeing had driven outsized gains in the Dow Jones index.
Unlike the Dow, the S&P 500 is weighted by market cap, meaning Microsoft the heaviest weighting. By comparison, Boeing commands the 15th biggest weighting of S&P 500 names.
Despite this week's sell-off, Boeing is still up 17% for the year, driven by strong fundamentals and solid earnings growth based on the planned launch and development of the 777X, Boeing's largest and most-efficient twin-engine plane.
On January 30, Boeing reported strong quarterly results, with annual revenues topping $US100 billion for the first time. The company forecast full-year 2019 earnings of between $US19.90 and $US20.10 a share, well ahead of Wall Street expectations.

Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and Adm. Harry Harris, commander of U.S. Pacific Command, agreed Thursday to maintain "maximum pressure" on North Korea, the day before a landmark inter-Korea summit.
Abe and Harris affirmed during their meeting the need for Pyongyang to abandon all of its weapons of mass destruction and every kind of ballistic missile programs in a "complete, verifiable and irreversible" manner, according to the Foreign Ministry.
"The multilateral relationship between Japan, the United States, the Republic of Korea and other friends and partners in the region to keep the pressure campaign active on North Korea, I believe, is important to regional stability throughout the Indo-Pacific," Harris said at the outset of the talks.
The president's nominee for secretary of state, Mike Pompeo, asked for Harris to be sent to South Korea, though he had previously been the president's pick for ambassador to Australia, a Trump administration official said Tuesday.
The ambassadorship to South Korea lies vacant ahead of a summit between Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un — the first ever between sitting U.S. and North Korean leaders — expected to take place by early June.
"I want to express my heartfelt appreciation for your contribution to strengthening the Japan-U.S. alliance, and ask for your support in continuing to do so," Abe said.
Harris, who was born in Japan to a serviceman in the U.S. Navy and a Japanese mother, became the first Japanese-American to serve as commander of Pacific Command in May 2015.
