The Medlin Law Firm has another record of DWI case win, through one of its criminal defense lawyers. Defense attorney, Dean Miyazono defended the client against a DWI charge with a BAC result of 0.21. There was video evidence of the client weaving in and out of lanes for more than four minutes. He was later pulled over by Hurst Police Department officers, who secured a search warrant to conduct blood tests.
The arresting officers testified that they detected the smell of alcohol. They also claimed that the accused exhibited slurred speech. Additionally, Medlin's client failed the sobriety tests and showed impaired balance and coordination. The blood test revealed that the client was legally intoxicated based on his BAC level and was detained for DWI.
During a two-day trial in Tarrant County, Texas, criminal defense lawyer Miyazono vehemently contested the accuracy of the blood test results. The Hurst Police Department failed to establish the presence of a DWI violation despite all of the evidence and the given testimony. The jury found the accused not guilty of the DWI charges.
This decision has kept the defendant clear from criminal records. It saves him as well from serious consequences of a conviction for DWI with a BAC of more than 0.21.
Medlin Law Firm's defense attorney, Dean Miyazono, is one of the firm's award-winning criminal defense lawyers. He has been given the AV Preeminent rating in 2021 by Martindale-Hubbell Ratings. The designation signifies that Miyazono's professional experience is held in the greatest regard by his peers.
The Medlin Law Firm concentrates on assisting criminal defendants by providing them competent representation. This is pursuant to their mission of providing "true dedication to your defense".

Logan Square's highly anticipated intimate, supper-clubby restaurant and bar opens today, finally realizing its owners vision almost exactly two years after they launched a seafood pop-up that went on to spawn the new venue. Good Fortune, a project from Charles Welch and Andrew Miller of Out to Lunch Hospitality, sits at 2528 N. California Avenue in a space that previously housed the General.
"It's been a long time coming," Miller said in an interview. "All of this was a lengthy process, and to get to the finish line is hugely rewarding."
The pair, who have known each other for about seven years, said they faced numerous logistical challenges while working to open Good Fortune. While Miller managed the buildout process and legalities, Welch traveled and cooked to keep his skills sharp. "It's tough when you've spent a few years not at the helm of a kitchen," said Welch. "There's a loss of identity, feeling like you're just on the sidelines... you have to have patience and grit to hang on and believe in process of making a restaurant."
Good Fortune, the fruit of their labor, is a 2,000 square-foot, split-level restaurant and bar that seats 44, with another eight seats at a small bar. Welch and Miller are shooting for a moody, modern aesthetic that evokes the feeling of the crowded dinner parties Miller and his fiancee throw at their home. "The food, the amount of wine we consume, the laughter, the music — it's a very contagious atmosphere," he said.
When they selected the restaurant's location, both Miller and Welch were struck by its close quarters and how much it felt like an apartment. The bifurcated space includes a bar and dining area in front, and in back there's a dining room with a clear view into the restaurant's open kitchen. Peacock blue, gold, and black tones run throughout. Plush blue banquettes line the walls, and local metal artisan and bar owner Bobby Middleton (the Giant Penny Whistle) fabricated midcentury modern chairs and light fixtures. Welch and Miller plan to open up patio seating next summer. "This is our little house and our little family that lives there and we just want to share it with the neighborhood," said Welch.
The menu, a blend of new American and Mediterranean flavors, ingredients, and techniques, is tight and thoughtful with a limited selection of dishes in each category: first courses, pastas, large plates, and desserts. Smaller starter dishes include black lime-cured arctic char (kombu, pickled turnip, sesame jam, carrot ponzu) and caramelized halloumi (stone fruit, za'atar, sunflower seed, za'atar yogurt). These are followed by three hand-made pasta offerings like black garlic rigatoni (patty pan squash, smoked maitake mushroom conserva, pepitas).
Protein-centric larger plates feature head-on prawns (octopus, black lentils, morcilla sausage, shellfish oil) and a pork collar (marble potatoes, shishito peppers, salsa verde, jus) roasted in a custom wood-burning oven. The menu also includes three dessert selections, most notably a roasted corn ice cream with corn crumble, blueberry, and saffron. Corn for the ice cream is also roasted in the custom oven. The full menu is available below.
The cocktail list from bar director Miranda Breedlove (Bad Hunter, Sportsman's Club) is composed of slight riffs on classic drinks. Diners can anticipate options like a mezcal Negroni (Italian sweet vermouth, campari, amaro) and a herbaceous Salty Dog (vodka, grapefruit, basil, fennel, campari, salt), as well as three draft beers. Groups can seek out Americanos (Campari, Italian sweet vermouth, sparkling water) in one and three-liter bottles. A wine list emphases both old world and new world American wines by the glass or bottle, featuring red, white, orange, rose, and sparkling options.
The owners are especially pleased to be located in restaurant hotspot Logan Square. "We've already been getting love," said Welch, citing a visit from the whole kitchen team of nearby acclaimed Mexican restaurant Mi Tocaya Antojeria and some neighbors who dropped off fried chicken at Good Fortune because they knew the team had a long day. "It warms my heart to be in the neighborhood," he added. "Having them extend themselves to us is an opportunity to do the same thing, to pay it forward or back."
Welch and Miller first opened Good Fortune as a pop-up in 2017 after exiting their Fulton Market restaurant Honey's. Its original menu focused on seafood, including dishes like oysters Rockefeller, hamachi tartare, and striped bass, and quickly garnered critical acclaim. The pair ended the pop-up in October of that year.
Tour the space and get a peek at some dishes in the photographs below.
Good Fortune opens today in Logan Square. Reservations are available on Resy.
Good Fortune, 2528 N. California Avenue, open 4 p.m. to 12 a.m. on Wednesday through Monday.

Goodwin (LSE: GDWN) has been a stellar small-cap performer in recent yers. It posted earnings per share (EPS) of 14.61p in 1999 and in its latest annual results, released yesterday afternoon, it reported EPS of 84.47p. The dividend has advanced from 2.94p to 42.35p over the same period. And the share price has climbed from 78.5p at the dawn of the century to 1,511p today.
This FTSE SmallCap-listed £109m company isn't a needle-in-a-haystack breakthrough biotech or disruptive digital star. It's a thoroughly unglamorous mechanical and refractory engineering company that's been around since 1883.
Long-term mindset
I've put Goodwin into a long-term context for you, because on a short-term view, with the shares having been above 4,000p just a few years ago, you might be inclined to think that the company is a distinctly unpromising prospect to make you brilliantly rich.
Having made the point that, despite the recent slump in the shares, Goodwin has delivered a tremendous return for long-term investors, let me also explain why I'm confident it will go on delivering long-term returns.
The company does significant business with the oil, gas and mining industries where capital expenditure has massively reduced over the past few years. Despite the inevitable pressure on Goodwin's top line and gross margin, the business has remained profitable. And, in contrast to many other companies involved in, or exposed to oil, gas and mining, its balance sheet has also remained healthy. Debt has increased but net gearing is still a very conservative 31.4%.
I put its resilience down to the long-term mindset of the successive generations of the family who've carefully stewarded the business to negotiate the bad times as well as thrive in the good. This is the sort of company I'd happily build up a holding in by regularly investing through rain and shine. Times of rain — as now — I'd view as an ideal starting point.
Another in the same mold
AIM-listed timber firm James Latham (LSE: LTHM) has the same attractive qualities as Goodwin. It was founded in 1757, continues to be stewarded by descendents of the founding family and has delivered excellent long-term returns for shareholders.
Adjusting for a four-for-one share split in 2005, EPS has increased from 7.425p in 1999 to 56p in its latest financial year. The dividend has advanced from 2.75p to 15.35p over the same period. And the share price has climbed from 238.5p at the turn of this century to 897.5p today, valuing the business at £176m.
At its AGM today, Latham said April-to-July revenue was 6% ahead of the same period last year and that customer activity remains positive but the trading environment competitive. The company has invested in new sites for growth and efficiency but said cash reserves remain strong (there was net cash of £16.3m on the balance sheet at the 31 March year end).
One way Latham currently differs from Goodwin is that its share price isn't depressed. In fact, its shares have made new all-time highs this year. Nevertheless, I continue to see this as a business that could deliver great rewards for long-term investors.

The Dawoodi Bohra community of Columbia, SC and surrounding areas worship at the Al-Murtazawi markaz (worship hall) in Cayce SC as part of the Columbia chapter of Anjuman-E-Husami, South Carolina.
Our Columbia chapter was started in early 2000 with initially a few families congregating from homes for worship and fellowship and soon with more families getting added, we got our markaz (Worship Hall) in Cayce SC in the year 2011. There are currently 15 families that gather together at the markaz in Cayce, SC. Our members range from school aged children to senior citizens who are all engaged and welcoming members of our congregation. Additionally, our members are trailblazers in the interfaith discussions in South Carolina- members of community have participated in conferences and been on panels on the topic. The members of the Columbia Bohras are well respected in the community with several of them having their own businesses and others being professionals in the fields of health, information technology, and academia.
Though our group is small we have continued to grow in size and devotion over the years and have no intention to slow down. It is our hope that one day, His Holiness, Dr. Syedna Muffadal Saifuddin would grace us with his presence in our city, state and in our homes.

Although fitness trackers and smartwatches have become so popular in the last couple of years, many people have decided not to wear or put them away. According to the National Institute of Health, 1 in 3 users stops wearing one. No matter the reason, if you decided that you don't need a fitness wearable we respect your decision.
Yes, you can get in shape or lose weight without fitness wearables. However, have you wondered how your body reacts to physical activity? How do you determine your fitness goals? Is your fitness strategy working for you? Do you know where you stand?
Years ago, I used to measure my progress by looking at the mirror, a scale, or people's comments. I thought that looking good meant my routine is working. There were no fitness wearables at that time and I did not rely on health data to guide me.
I could have used a pedometer or even a chronometer but I wanted to keep things "simpler".
However, the reality is that working out involves not only how great you look, but beyond that. Performing any activity is also about how you feel, mentality, and physically.
So, if you have decided not to self-monitor or you have put your fitness watch away, you may have a good reason. Nevertheless, as part of a safe and effective workout knowing how your body and mind react to any physical exercise is essential.
If you cannot decide or feel unsure whether you need a fitness tracker or smartwatch you are in the right place. You will learn that taking your workout to the next level is only a couple of numbers away.

Reasons people stop wearing a fitness watch
As Fitbit, Apple, and Garmin continue to lead among the most popular in the fitness wearable market, many people continue buying fitness watches to reach their fitness goals and to improve their health. In fact, according to the Pew Research Center, 1 in 5 or 21% of the adults in the USA say they regularly use a fitness wearable.
However, more than half of the users stop using their fitness watches. Why? We will explain why people stop wearing them. Are you one of those? Keep reading. You will realize that fitness trackers and smartwatches are not to blame.
These are the top 5 reasons fitness watches are put away:
The data does not make any sense
Oooh, accuracy! We all hate to see a low number after a long walk or a jog. Unfortunately, no electronics, including dobby weight scales, digital fat analyzers, are 100 percent accurate.
Many users can feel disappointed to see the steps taken are over or undercounted. Also, calories burned or heart rate can be inaccurate.
The problem is that we rely on data too much or get too obsessed with numbers.
What you can do about it: Keep in mind that there is no perfect fitness wearable and that they are just tools. They can be used as a guide. No matter how accurate they may be, they are still estimates. To get more personalized feedback, it is best to indicate your weight, age, gender, height, and walking/running stride length.
Higher expectations
We all dream to achieve a great body without doing the hard work. When I bought my first fitness watch I thought I got the answer. When I analyzed the data I realized that I was not doing enough activity. Hence, I did not see the results I was expecting. I know that many users are encountering this experience that at the same time is a reality check.
What you can do about it: Create realistic goals using your data and focus on your progress. Keep in mind that the more personalized your fitness plan the more effective it will be.
Some people prefer not to wear anything on the wrist. Many users don't want any distractions.
What you can do about it: You can use fitness wearables around your ankle. You can find a variety of ankle straps for fitness watches available on Amazon. Also, you can use a pedometer to track your progress. As an alternative, a clip-on fitness tracker can do the trick as well.
They prefer to use their phone instead
Many users rely on their smartphones more than any other electronics. This is understandable especially when you want to stay connected.
What you can do about it: Smartwatches like Apple 3 and 5 have everything you need. Do not miss any call or text messages while you monitor your physical performance. Keep in mind that Apple 4 has been discontinued and replaced by a more advanced Apple 5 Series that you can find in Amazon.
Some users did not see the results sooner.
Getting in the best shape of your life takes time, persistence, and hard work. Stay focused on your goals and always stay active.
What you can do about it: Do you want to achieve your goals quicker? It is only possible when you have the discipline to keep working harder. Workout smarter not harder. Analyze your health data and find any areas of improvement.
11 powerful reasons you may need a fitness watch
If you have put your device away you may be missing out many of the benefits that can help take your plan to the next level. Although not a perfect one, a fitness tracker or smartwatch is a great tool to help you understand your body and ease your mind. Do you want to know more? To help you understand fitness wearables, we have put together these interesting facts:
- You can adjust the pace and intensity of your fitness plan to minimize injuries and keep improving
- Also, you can train by heart rate zones during your cardio workout to help you reach the target
- Not only a fitness watch can track progress and help attain fitness goals but also helps create accountability.
- It can help encourage activity and fitness exercise as well
- Many have a built-in music player and GPS tracker which makes your exercising more exciting and fun
- Also, they have audio coaching on how to improve your fitness levels when used with your smartphone phone and advanced running metrics
- It is great for those who love to keep in shape by swimming as some of these devices are waterproof
- Fitness watches can detect any physical activity or track multiple sports
- Many of them can monitor your sleep, Heart Rate Variability (HRV), and stress levels using heart rate tracking
- The data can be shared with your doctor which helps spot any health conditions.
- Besides, heart rate data can be empowering which makes people health conscious.
How to use a fitness tracker to help to stay fit
Believe it or not, enjoying the many benefits that a fitness wearable can bring will take time. Learning how to use one takes dedication and patience.
Getting to know your fitness watch is only one of the aspects that you need to learn so that your device can do its job.
The following helpful tips will help you get the most out of these wrist companions that will save you time, frustration, and inconveniences:
Very important: Do not compare yourself with others.
Comparing yourself to someone else is one of the biggest mistakes we all have made. This attitude creates insecurity and frustration which causes you to stop working out and not believe in you.
You are only one with a unique body. Just compare yourself with your previous self. Meaning how far you moved from point A to point B. There is no doubt, using a fitness watch will help you focus on your goals and improvements.
Do not rely on your fitness wearable only.
This is one of the reasons users put their devices away. However, smartwatches and fitness trackers are tools to help you remain motivated. Also, engagement will make a great difference and will get you where you want to be.
Be active.
If you are not following a fitness plan, go out for a walk. Also, you can do gardening or sign up for a marathon. Use the move alert feature in your tracker.
Adopt a positive attitude.
Believe it or not, a positive change in mindset can be rewarding. Visualize yourself achieving your fitness goals. It boosts confidence and motivation.
Do not think too much.
Keep your fitness plan on track and let your body do the rest. If you get obsessed you will end up anxious and will not enjoy your workout.
Keep in mind that good things are hard to get.
The more you commit to your fitness plan the better the results. Focus on how great you will feel and the rewards will come.
Should you use a fitness tracker to track performance?
We exercise to either lose weight, keep in shape, add muscle, or to attain other fitness goals. Like I always say: Without a workout program, there is no progress. No matter how we exercise we always expect to see the results.
Therefore, it's very important to self monitor your physical performance. This is not only a strategy to reach your fitness goals or also an essential part of your workout.
Have you thought about how much your fitness levels have changed in a couple of years? So are you exercising the same way you did 10 years ago? How do you determine if your body can take more physical challenges over the years?
Before fitness wearables ever existed, I have seen many people running marathons, doing aerobics, and even jogging that never monitored the progress or they didn't do it as much. However, this has led to premature aging, a stressed heart, and injuries.
First, find the right fitness tracker for you
Now, let's talk about finding the right one for your needs. This is no easy task. There are so many trackers to choose with a variety of specifications and features that they can offer.
That's why we are here to help you find the right one for your needs to help you stay motivated and improve your overall health.
For you to find the right smart bracelet for your needs, it is very important to consider the type of physical activity, fitness goals, budget, and even your lifestyle.
Why? Because many fitness trackers come with features that you may not even need. For example, if you do not swim you may not need a swim-proof fitness tracker.
There is no perfect fitness tracker but there is one that can deliver the best user experience that fits your needs. We will explain the different functionalities and technologies to help you choose the right fitness tracker for you:
These fitness watches features will bring you more fun to your fitness plan
There are fitness trackers or smartwatches for every lifestyle, need, and taste. Therefore, we have put together a list of smart bracelets to help you stay motivated to workout and keep moving. Here they are:
Budget fitness trackers
Who said a cheaper fitness tracker can't help motivate you to workout? You can find affordable smart wristbands with decent functionality. Keep in mind that in many cases you get what you pay.

Fitness watches with built-in GPS

Slightly Less But Lots of Black Soapstone
The reviews on the Italian range--not so good. The oven temp knobs are low, med and high. Just a suggestion of temp--nothing definite like 325. Those Italians! And nothing so large as a turkey would fit. And repairs? Oh, lots of those to "fine tune" and get the burners to work---again and again.
The GE Monogram self cleaning electric oven regularly sets fire to the nearby cabinets.
The things one learns. I am going local to look at the Thermador. My guys (who repair all else here) will be able to service that, I hope. Though the one guy told me to keep my 27 year (plus) old things as long as he can get parts. The new stuff. Some of it has no repairable parts. You have to replace. What is the world coming to, eh?
Work today. Cold and raining but we have a newly installed (natural gas) heat source in the greenhouse. We were cozy. Next weekend is the Holiday Open House. The Poinsettias will arrive soon.
G is trying to make way in the garage for our cars. There are too many construction items. I think we will ask J to take it all away or help carry it to the attic. With the way I am making decisions---it will be 8 or 10 or even 12 weeks before all the parts of this new kitchen are delivered. Too long to be parking out in the snow and tripping over wood on the garage floor.
I am quickly losing interest in the new kitchen. I don't like making compromises. Make enough and what you end up with isn't even a whisper of what you wanted. In that case--hey, keep what you have. It sounded simple enough. A large island. A new range with drawers on either side. A lovely expanse of a countertop that I "loved" touching.
And now I have to figure out where to move the central vac that is in a wall that is being removed. If the wall is being removed. It's never a good idea to push me into a corner.

Handmade Happiness by Ruth to Release the Tiny Traveling Worlds Collection of Children's Toys
Just in the Saint Nick of Time for the Holidays Handmade Happiness by Ruth Is Launching a Collection of Eco-Friendly Toys for All the Good Boys and Girls Out There. Ruth Rau is set introduce an entire collection of children's imaginative adventure playmats and accessories to kids far and wide.
Winchester, VA, November 10, 2015 (Newswire.com) - Handmade Happiness by Ruth is ecstatic to be releasing their first Tiny Traveling Worlds Collection of fun, eco-friendly, fanciful playmats designed to entertain and unleash children's imaginations everywhere Nov 12th, 2015.
Just in time for the Christmas rush Handmade Happiness by Ruth is giving the gift of imagination and play to your little ones. Celebrate the holidays with toys that are not only designed to withstand children's rough play but will entertain them for hours on end. Gain a little peace and quiet as they are entertained for hours playing knights of the round table or pretending to be a T-Rex trapped in a tar pit.
Ruth Rau found herself at odds with the plastic, chemical laden, easily broken plastic toys most children seem to possess today. She quickly began to search for alternatives that were better for both her children and the environment. When she could not find anything suitable genius struck and she began to make her own. From that humble beginning Handmade Happiness by Ruth began to create toys that open the imagination of young ones everywhere. Now she is ready to share that gift with everyone with her Tiny Traveling Worlds Collection.
The Tiny Traveling Worlds Collection recreates all those fantasies that we have as a child and brings them to life with bold colorful sturdy playmats and bright accessories that will delight your child this holiday season. Ruth not only wanted to make these toys fun for kids portable for parents and also good for them by including velcroed areas, flaps, pockets, and tunnels to help children develop their fine motor skills.
These fun playmats all have pockets to tuck away the accessories and fold up for easy storage and to make travel a breeze. You can take them to doctors appointments, family gatherings, or picnics in the park to keep your child entertained for hours on end as they rescue the fair maiden or zoom around the track before making a pit stop for a fill-up. The playmats are built tough to withstand lots of rugged and rough play.
Created from organic materials that meet CPSC Guidelines so you are only getting the best out there. With hand finished details and durable construction they will not harm your child and will be delighting them for years to come. This will be a gift you can pass down from generation to generation creating memories which is so important.
Handmade Happiness by Ruth wants to be a part of your child's life this holiday season with one of their whimsical playmats. It is a perfect gift for your child, a grandchild, or a nephew or niece. Give them the gift of inspired play and on the go fun that is not only safe but will keep them occupied at home or out and about for hours and hours. Not to mention the peace of mind knowing that it is all natural. Let your little ones imagination take flight and travel from the barnyard to the prehistoric land of the dinosaur with their very own playmat from the Tiny Traveling Worlds Collection. Bring creativity and play home this holiday.
About Handmade Happiness by Ruth
Ruth Rau is a part time architect and a mother to two lovely sons. Like many mothers she faced the challenge of clutter from cheap plastic toys that kept breaking as her boys played with them. Alarmed by a recall on some of her children's toys and with little information to be had about the effects the chemicals might have on her children Ruth became worried. She began a search for healthier organic alternatives for toys and found very little that met her high standards.
Handmade Happiness by Ruth was born when she began to not only sew playmats for her own children but began to design them unhappy with the patterns that were out there. She felt like she could create better using her skills as an architect and her knowledge as a mother to create something that was both durable and fun.
Eventually friends, neighbors, and complete strangers began to notice her children playing with these wonderful creative playmats. They expressed similar frustration to Ruth about not being able to find toys that are not needing to be replaced every week, that are not harmful, and keep children entertained. She began almost immediately to make and sell them to the families in her community and online.
Now Ruth wants to bring you and your child into her wonderful world of imaginative fun and whimsical play with her first collection of organic playmats and playful accessories. She wants to inspire parents to consider what their children are playing with and make the best choice this Christmas and give them the very best. Create memories with your children this holiday season that you can cherish all year long with a gift that will arouse their curiosity and spark their minds to new creative heights.

Gas explosions in process pipes
In this thesis, gas explosions inside pipes are considered. Laboratory experiments and numerical simulations are the basis of the thesis. The target of the work was to study gas explosions in pipes and to develop numer- ical models that could predict accidental gas explosions inside pipes. Experiments were performed in circular steel and plexiglass pipes. The steel pipes have an inner diameter of 22.3 mm and lengths of 1, 2, 5 and 11 m. The plexiglass pipe has an inner diameter of 40 mm and a length of 1.9 m. Mixtures of propane, acetylene and hydrogen with air at various equivalence ratios were used. Pressure was recorded by Kistler pressure transducers and ame propagation was captured by photodiodes, a SLR camera and a high-speed camera. The experiments showed that acoustic oscillations would occur in the pipes, and that the frequency of these oscillations are determined by the pipe length. Several inversions of the ame front can occur during the ame propagation in a pipe. These inversions are appearing due to quenching of the ame front at the pipe wall and due to interactions of the ame front with the longitudinal pressure waves in the pipe. Transition to detonation was achieved in acetylene-air mixtures in a 5 m steel pipe with 4 small obstructions. Simulations of the ame propagation in smooth pipes were performed with an 1D MATLAB version of the Random Choice Method (RCMLAB). Methods for estimation of quasi 1D burning velocities and of pipe outlet conditions from experimental pres- sure data were implemented into this code. The simulated pressure waves and ame propagation were compared to the experimental results and there are good agreements between the results. Simulations were also performed with the commercial CFD code FLACS. The code was tested for gas explosions in smooth pipes and the results compared to experimental results. To properly handle the longitudinal pressure oscillations in pipes, at least 7 grid cells in each direction of the pipe cross-section and a Courant number (CFLC) of maximum 1 should be used. It was shown that the current combustion model in FLACS gave too high ame speeds initially for gas explosions in a pipe with an inner width of 40 mm.

A claimant in a discrimination case must prove the facts on which an inference of discrimination can be made before that burden moves to the respondent, the Court of Appeal has ruled.
The ruling in the case of Ayodele v Citylink, which the Court of Appeal handed down on 24 November, has overturned a surprise shift in position by the Employment Appeal Tribunal's August 2017 decision in Efobi v Royal Mail Group.
By doing so, it has turned back the law on who – employee or employer – carries the burden of proof of discrimination in employment claims, to the position in place before the Equality Act 2010 came into force.
The question arose after the judges were asked to reconsider the law after a change of wording on who carries the burden. They found that the change of wording in section 136(2) of the Equality Act 2010 from previous discrimination legislation meant that the burden of proof had changed.
Ajayi Ayodele was originally from Nigeria and described himself as black. Citylink employed him as a warehouse operative in its Swansea distribution centre, initially through an agency but directly from 2007. He resigned in October 2012 in response to a repudiatory breach of his employment contract, claiming constructive dismissal, racial discrimination, racial harassment and victimisation.
As some of his complaints dated back to the time when he began employment, the case straddled the date when the Equality Act came into force. This meant the employment tribunal had to consider that Act and the legacy Race Relations Act 1976.
Ayodele lost his claim for racial discrimination at Cardiff Employment Tribunal in 2013 but the case went to the Court of Appeal in 2015, seeking to rely on a new point in the Efobi case.
Efobi, a postman, unsuccessfully applied for about 30 different jobs with Royal Mail. He claimed that his applications were rejected because of his race and this was discriminatory.
The Efobi case appeared to change the law because of the finding that, under the Equality Act, there was no burden on the claimant to prove discrimination at the first stage of his claim, and there was no shifting burden of proof from employee to employer – which at the time shocked employment lawyers.
Jo Powis, employment lawyer at Reed Smith, told People Management that the decision in Efobi "came as a surprise and was expected to make it easier for claimants to succeed in discrimination claims".
In Efobi, Judge Laing decided there was no burden on claimants to prove facts from which a tribunal could decide that the respondent had discriminated. "It may therefore be misleading to refer to a shifting of the burden of proof, as this implies, contrary to the language of section 136(2), that parliament has required the claimant to prove something," she said.
Instead of the claimant having to prove the employer discriminated against him first, the tribunal should instead consider first "all the evidence, from whatever source it had come, and not only the evidence adduced by the claimant", Laing ruled in Efobi.
In Ayodele's Court of Appeal judgment, however, Lord Singh overruled Efobi and, in a ruling more favourable to employers, decided that earlier case law – Igen and Madarassy – was still relevant, and that the claimant will have to prove discrimination first before the burden of proof 'shifts' to the employer.
Singh held that, by removing words that might indicate that the complainant had to prove facts, the Equality Act did not mean that a claimant did not have to prove facts from which discrimination could be inferred. The employer then must provide a non-discriminatory explanation for its actions.
Singh said: "I can see no reason in fairness that a respondent should have to discharge that burden of proof unless and until the claimant has shown that there is a prima facie case of discrimination that needs to be answered."
The decision in Ayodele "will be welcomed for restoring the orthodox approach that employers and their lawyers are familiar with and that has generally been thought to strike a fair balance", Powis said.
Makbool Javaid, employer partner at Simons Muirhead & Burton, said: "The Court of Appeal's judgment confirms that there is a burden of proof on the claimant and that the Equality Act 2010, while worded differently from its predecessor legislation, does not change this."
However, "permission is being sought to appeal the Efobi judgment and it will be interesting to see how this issue may be addressed any Court of Appeal hearing or later judgment".

Here's what Silvia Villalobos said:
Bonita is a compelling story of self-discovery and courage, set in Northern California in the 1840s, when courage, particularly for a 12-year-old girl, took sheer grit.
Discovering a past that's been kept from her, including her name, stiffs Bonita with rage and sends her on a journey across a landscape painted as a realistic tableau of the time. Details are attended to in convincing manner down to Bonita's "night of the grizzlies," and "uncharacteristically still … waters off Angel Island," and Spanish bits. Alongside notable and well-researched historical events, we witness the girl's journey through life stages while powerful emotions and new encounters are weaved into the story.
The first thing that grabbed my attention, however, was the narrative style. While such judgments are really subject to the eyes of the beholder, I found the style and prose done in beauty and elegance. I would recommend Bonita to book lovers in general and historical fiction readers in particular.
I'm grateful to her for her positive (and, of course, discerning) comments. Here's where those comments are posted. http://amzn.to/1RZtoDP

Peugeot adapts UK EV pricing to new PiCG
Peugeot UK has reduced list prices across the entire e-2008 range to ensure customers can continue to benefit from the Plug-in Car Grant (PiCG). A reduction of £450 on all versions mean Active Premium, Allure and Allure Premium models remain eligible for the new grant.
With the move to revise pricing for all e-2008 models and enhanced deposit contributions for the e-208 range, Peugeot has made changes in response to the recent overhaul of UK Government's Plug-in Car Grant. The grant has been reduced to £2,500 and is now only available on new electric vehicles costing less than £35,000, as the electric vehicle market in the UK steadily expands.
Following adjustment from the Plug-in Car Grant, prices for the Active Premium now start at £30,730, while Allure models start from £31,930 and Allure Premium variants from £32,380. Peugeot UK is also offering an additional £500 support in deposit contribution on PCP contracts and cash purchases through the month of March. In addition, further customer savings of £500 have been applied to our Pride offers and Personal and Business contract hire agreements on all e-208 models. In combination with the £2,500 PiCG this brings the total deduction to £3,000, matching the Government's previous subsidy.
"The Plug-in Car Grant has helped many make the switch to electric vehicles, and we have ensured our electric cars remain eligible for the grant," said Julie David, Managing Director of PEUGEOT UK. "The revised pricing of the e-2008 and increased deposit contribution for the e-208 are further evidence of our commitment to electrification with our goal to offer an electrified variant across our entire model line-up by 2025."

6 Must-Have Features of the Best Luxury Villas to Invest In
With the huge available indoor and outdoor space, strategic location, numerous facilities, and better lifestyle it provides, a villa is the best property to own that meets your basic needs and more.
When you buy a luxury villa in Dubai, you will have a home that can exceed your expectations.
But with the significant investment luxury villas require, you have to be a hundred percent certain that the one you purchase is everything that you are looking for. You can do this by creating a list of crucial features your new home should have and confirming the property has all of them.
Luxury Villa Checklist
Below are the six features you need to look for in the right luxury villa to buy in Dubai:
1. Excellent Location
If you want to live in a quiet, peaceful, less hectic and greener place, a neighbourhood located a bit far from the central business area, a villa is the perfect option for you.
However, buying a property in a far-off place should not only be your main consideration.
A great luxury villa should be located in a self-contained community where nearly everything you need or want is within reach. Grocery and convenience stores, pharmacies, restaurants, cafes, and petrol stations are some of the amenities that have to be in the neighbourhood.
It will be a big plus if the community has swimming pools, gyms, parks, gardens, and other sports courts or facilities. If you love playing golf and going to the beach, check if the villa is near a golf course or by the seashore.
If you are working and have children, make sure your workplace and some good-quality schools are within a reasonable distance as well. You should be able to reach them in minutes and have options for commuting in case your car breaks down.
2. Expansive Space
Luxury properties are distinguished by their ample space inside and out. In fact, real estate trends in Dubai during the global pandemic show a rising demand for more spacious homes, specifically villas with upgraded features.
Bedrooms should be spacious enough for all essential furniture pieces. They should have plenty of storage space, as well.
Also, the living room, dining area, kitchen, and bathrooms should never be cramped, even after arranging all the furniture and installing additional fixtures.
Make sure there is ample space on the four sides of the villa, too.
Aside from a provision for a parking area, your new home should have extra space for a lawn or an outdoor living area. This additional amenity can give you and your family more convenience and comfort.
3. Aesthetic and Functional Features
Aside from space, the best luxury villas have several modern features that always catch the eye or are handy, or sometimes, even both. Moreover, these fixtures should make living in your new home more comfortable and enjoyable.
These include plenty of windows to ensure all rooms are well-ventilated and get enough natural light. A centralised cooling and heating system is also crucial for high-end villas.
You should also find the lighting fixtures attractive and installed in the right places in the villa. If you are satisfied with them, you will avoid the need to change them. You will be able to save money and spend it on purchasing lamps and replacement bulbs.
Additionally, make sure the plumbing fixtures and fittings meet your style and preference. More importantly, check that they are made of high-quality material and give out the right amount of water pressure.
Conduct the same checks for the toilet fixtures and fittings as well.
If the villa is furnished, determine if the furniture pieces and appliances meet your needs and preferences, too.
4. The Developer's Reputation
Whether you are buying a newly built or an under-construction villa, its quality will depend greatly on the builder.
Check the track record of the developer. Make sure they have a good history of delivering quality projects. Aside from researching about their past and current developments, take the time to visit some of them to see first-hand the completed properties or as they are being constructed.
Read reviews from people who bought or are living in the villas they purchased from the developer. These feedbacks should show that they are satisfied with everything they got from the property. Try to get some ideas on how well-maintained their homes are, too.
Choosing a reputable developer can go a long way in helping you invest in the right high-end villa in Dubai.
5. Potential Property Price Appreciation
Price appreciation refers to the increase in the value of real estate properties over a period of time. This is a key factor to consider if you are unsure if you will stay in Dubai permanently.
The villa's price appreciation can give you an assurance that you will receive a positive return on the investment when you decide to sell it in the future.
The location of the villa is a crucial element that can make or break the villa's market value.
The presence of other property market drivers, such as the arrival of a shopping mall, supermarket, schools, and other essential establishments, and its proximity to public transport facilities, can have a huge impact as well.
Lastly, villas constructed by well-known developers also have a higher chance of maintaining and increasing their market value. As such, don't rule out the possibility of by purchasing a property from one.
6. The Price
Staying within a budget is always important when buying a luxury villa in Dubai. However, never fall for low prices because this type of luxury is defined by ultra-luxury features.

Power's own Omari Hardwick is launching a podcast titled, Poetics dedicated to Hip-Hop and spoken word.
Hardwick described the show saying "I'm asking rappers to come in and sit down and recite a poem, lose the machismo. Poetry has a vulnerability that rap and MC'ing doesn't. You gotta be vulnerable. That kind of takes it to another level and gives [artists] a different look."
Poetics executive producer and co-creator, Alex Angel, said, "Poetics brings to its audience an experience that calls back to the cinematic vibe. Omari encourages guests to go deep, and we enhance that storytelling with a dope soundscape. It's not like an interview that you hear on a lot of podcasts."
This is Omari Hardwick's first endeavor outside of his five-year role as Ghost on the hit series Power. He is returning for the sixth season slated to premiere this Summer
The first season of guests includes Wyclef Jean, Dave East, Big Daddy Kane, Dr. Michael Eric Dyson and more. The podcast is set to debut via the Luminary Network on May 2, 2019.

Clearcreekite is polymorphous with peterbaylissite. The chemical formula of clearcreekite is Hg1+3CO3(OH)∙2H2O. It is a monoclinic-prismatic pale greenish yellow mineral containing carbon, hydrogen, mercury, and oxygen.
Clearcreekite is an extremely rare mineral from the Clear Creek mercury mine, New Idria district, San Benito County, California. It was probably formed after the alteration of other mercury minerals such as cinnabar. The mineral is named after the locality where it was found.
General Information
- Category: Carbonate mineral
- Formula: Hg1+3CO3(OH)∙2H2O
- Crystal system: Monoclinic
- Crystal class: Prismatic (2/m) (same H-M symbol)
Clearcreekite is transparent with a pale greenish yellow color and streak, vitreous luster, good cleavage on {001} and it is brittle with an uneven fracture. Its density (calculated from the idealized formula) is 6.96 g/cm3. The mineral is monoclinic with the space group P2/c.
- Color: pale greenish yellow
- Crystal habit: tabular, subhedral
- Cleavage: good on {001}
- Fracture: uneven
- Tenacity: brittle
- Mohs scale hardness: probably 2
- Luster: vitreous
- Streak: pale greenish yellow
- Density: 6.96 g/cm3 (calculated)
Geologic occurrence
Mercury deposits in California are located mainly along the San Andreas Fault. The deposits are related to the transition of the North American plate and the Pacific plate boundary from converging to transform. The crystals of clearcreekite were originally found on a silica-carbonate rock near specimens of cinnabar and edoylerite.

As it turned out, we had to wait until September 2008 for this, her tenth album, but The Cole Porter Mix was well worth waiting for. Barber's albums typically focus mainly on her own extraordinary songs, with occasional covers mixed in. Her last album of song standards prior to this one was the excellent Nightclub from 2000. A brilliant and meticulous wordsmith, Cole Porter was surely the most literary of great American popular songwriters, with his sure, poetic command of wit, irony and clever wordplay. I think of him as songwriting's F. Scott Fitzgerald — perhaps too because both men's works so often evoke sophisticated socialite decadence. Barber's strengths as both writer and performer — formidable intellect, verbal virtuosity and penetrating social observation — make her the perfect Porter interpreter, as is demonstrated in the 10 Porter songs and three Barber originals offered here. After hearing this CD many times, I feel that Barber here is "channeling" Porter, so rich and complete is her command of his idiom. Let's take a look at Barber's writing in this context. "Late Afternoon and You" sets a languorous, decadent tone, anticipating an afternoon tryst at a luxury hotel — definitely a scene Porter would feel at home with. "Snow" mixes sensuous, concrete physical and abstract conceptual imagery as the insecure narrator questions her lover. Closing the album, "The New Year's Eve Song" is an interesting departure for Barber, as it describes a man and woman "so in love with" each other. She has written numerous love songs that don't specifically identify the sex of the parties, and in her cover choices she loves to turn around the implicit messages — easy, just don't change the pronouns when the singer is female — of such songs as Santana's "Black Magic Woman" and Tom Jones' sexist classic "She's a Lady." I take this track as Barber's final tip of the hat to Porter, who penned countless songs about heterosexual love. And let's not forget the new verse Barber appends to "You're the Top" — it'll bring a smile for most, I think, though perhaps not to John McCain partisans. What's the bottom line here? Barber's verbal and melodic style is wholly contemporary, but the "feel" of these songs is quite congruent with the Porter songs. All of the Porter songs are beautifully realized. I'll mention just a few personal highlights. Barber goes against the Maurice Chevalier novelty approach to "C'est Magnifique," turning it into a slow, longing ballad. "Get Out of Town" is quiet and ominous, with striking guitar accents from Neal Alger. "In the Still of the Night" features dazzling ensemble work, with a hot piano solo from Barber and a wailing coda with Montzka and saxophonist Chris Potter. And Barber's deadpan ironic delivery on "Miss Otis Regrets" is note-perfect. The musicianship here is absolutely great. The core Quartet — Barber, Arnopol, Alger and Montzka — play off each other flawlessly, and both Smith and, especially, Potter on sax contribute great work. Barber continues to grow as leader and arranger, giving the group ample room to stretch out and swing. Barber gets producer credit, working again with recording engineer Jim Anderson. The sound is wide-range and natural, highly but not obtrusively detailed. The players are placed precisely within a natural, relaxed grouping. It is a demo-quality CD for those who use music rather than cannons and sound effects for audio evaluations. Patricia Barber remains for this listener the finest jazz songwriter, singer, pianist and leader working today. She's the top! And this CD? C'est magnifique! Performance: Enjoyment: Sound: |

A packet of crisps today can have up to seven layers of wrapping - that's a whole lot of plastic and foil.
In fact, the world is producing 20 times more plastic now than it did 50 years ago – a number that's fast growing – despite politicians and campaigners calling for a 'zero waste economy'.
But did you know that just one plastic carrier bag can take up to 100 years to decompose?
As Britain's waste problem continues to hit record levels, one couple reckon they have what it takes to get the planet back on track.
Their answer? A zero waste shop.
Richard Eckersley, his wife Nicola and their baby, Willow, are the family behind the UK's first ever 'no packaging' supermarket - here's how it works.
How much Brits are throwing out a year
177 million tonnes
Earth.Food.Love is an organic shop based in Totnes, Devon. It's the first zero waste store in the UK, retailing a range of up to 200 pesticide-free products - but to shop there, you'll have to come along with your own pots, jars and sandwich bags.
That's because it operates a packaging ban - it gives out zero waste a day, even its energy is eco.
Earth.Food.Love opened in March this year after its founders, Richard and Nicola Eckersley discovered Unperfekthaus - a German anti waste outlet - during a trip to Berlin.
"We walked in and immediately thought, why doesn't this exist in the UK?" Richard told Mirror Money.
"We came back to the UK and decided to open our own sustainable store - we wanted to go somewhere that we felt would make a difference to the local community - that's why we moved to Devon."
The motto of the shop is to deliver goods that are "ethical, wholesome and organic". It stocks grains, pastas and even maple syrup - but certain items, such as alcohol and milk, are off the menu.
This is partly down to being unable to source an ethical supplier - and because they don't want to compete with local farmers already selling fresh - and organic - produce.
"By far our most popular attraction of the shop is the 'grind-your-own' nut butter machines. Filled with both almonds and peanuts, you can re-use your nut butter jar again and again and again. Each time filling it with delicious, sticky goodness that's been ground right in front of you.
"It's not about price for us. We don't want to stock items just for the sake of it, it has to be ethical. At the same time, we don't want to compete with local farms - there are many around here that sell fresh produce already. We're adding products all of time, but the supplier has to be right for us.
"We want to live in a world where consuming doesn't have to cost the earth. We believe returning to these simple ways will benefit not only our health, but the planets too."
Earth.Food.Love is a member of 1% for the planet, an organisation that campaigns for a healthier, happier planet. 1% of its profits go to the charity each year.
Even its energy is ethical - the shop uses Gloucestershire based company Ecotricity - a firm that produces clean, renewable gas and electricity.
And customers are happy too: "This week we've had an influx of tourists popping in to see what the shop is all about - they're fascinated. But we have a lot of local residents too - they come in with their own boxes and bags and stock up on what they need."
"As little, or as much as like"
Earth.Food.Love stocks its items in bulk - much is locally sourced and biked over by local farmers, such as regionally grown oats.
Other products are transported using minimal packaging - most of which we can recycle too.
When it comes to the in-store experience, each product is laid out in bulk. Customers are invited to help themselves to as much or as little as they need. You can get a 10% of discount if you buy 10kg or more of one product.
To shop, you'll need your own container, fill it up, label the weight, and then when then pay by the gram.
How prices compare: Organic oats 750
How prices compare: Organic spaghetti 500g
Bamboo toothbrushes
Zero waste extends far beyond just food - everyday items such as razors and toothbruses can also play a huge part.
The store's Zero Waste Lifestyle collection sells products that can help you live an 'eco' life. The collection stocks sanitary products, metal shavers that you just need to swap the blade on and bamboo toothbrushes that you can just replace the bristles on.
It's not the first or last to open in the UK
Since opening, owner Richard says it's inspired many other shoppers. Another independent store is soon to open in London, with a third in Birmingham in the pipeline.
In response to this, its owners have produced their very own guide to 'setting up your own zero waste shop'.
The guide covers location, budget, suppliers, how to find dispensers and even advice on what to stock and hygiene.
"In setting up a zero waste shop, you are creating such a huge shift in the way people shop that you are directly influencing positive change, and for that, you should be proud," Richard explained.
"Remember that is only takes one person to make one change, and the ripple will be felt through the entire ocean."
How you can become a zero-waste household
Join a fresh veg scheme and have a crate of organic greens delivered to your door each week (at a cost of £10-15 a box). Alternatively try Asda's wonky fruit and veg which costs just £3.50 a box - it's all organic - hence the odd shapes.
Use a farmers' market if you're near one, or local shops – butchers, fishmongers – and buy dry goods such as rice, other grains and pulses in bulk, preferably from places that offer refills.
Got 'rotten' bananas? Bake a loaf. One of the smartest things you can do to prevent waste is to learn to cook and become familiar with ingredients. Collectively, Britain throws out £32 million a week in untouched or uncooked foods - many of which are perfectly good to eat. See our guide on smell by dates if you're confused. See our guide on banana rescue tips here.
Ditch supermarket bags. Bags cost 5p - which is a put off - but fruit and veg bags are still free - and hugely wasteful. Remind yourself to take an extra bag to the supermarket for just these fresh items. Whilst shopping, avoid the clear bags, and at the checkout, just lump it all into the same plastic bag. When you get home, wash it (you'd have to do this anyway) and pop it in your fridge box.
Grow your own fruit and veg in the garden. If space is an issue, why not get a window box on the side? You can grow your own herbs, chillies, and even cherry tomatoes all year round.
