The Legal Services Board (LSB) has granted permission for the bar regulator to change the standard of proof applied in disciplinary proceedings, a move which could make it easier for barristers to be sanctioned.In a statement today, LSB chief executive Neil Buckley said: ‘We have agreed a rule change application from the BSB, which brings their approach on assessing professional misconduct into line with that adopted by other professional regulators.’In November last year, the BSB agreed to lower the standard of proof, pending LSB approval, downgrading it from the criminal standard to the civil standard.Currently the BSB and the cases it brings before the Bar Tribunal and Adjudication Service, rely on the criminal standard of proof; whereby wrongdoing has to be proved beyond reasonable doubt. Under the new standard, cases will be determined on the balance of probabilities.The change will come into force from March next year.At the time it agreed to the change the BSB stressed that only cases that come to the tribunal after the agreed implementation date will be tried under the new standard, meaning there would be a ‘crossover period’ under which both standards would be applied.As it stands the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal operates the criminal standard as well but a consultation on shifting to the civil standard closed this week.
The 25 kV 50 Hz Class 745/1 EMUs for the Stansted Express service are technically similar to the 10 Class 745/0 units which Greater Anglia has ordered for London – Norwich inter-city services. The air-conditioned interiors of the 12-car sets feature at-seat plug and USB sockets, free wi-fi and passenger information screens. Unlike the inter-city trains the airport trains do not have a buffet or first class seating, but will have additional luggage racks.Franchisee Abellio is in the process of replacing the entire Greater Anglia fleet. Stadler is supplying a total of 58 electric and electro-diesel Flirt UK units of classes 745 and 755, financed by the Rock Rail East Anglia joint venture of Rock Rail, Aberdeen Standard Investments and GLIL Infrastructure. Bombardier Transportation’s Derby factory is producing 111 Class 720 Aventra EMUs, financed by Angel Trains. The new trainsets are expected to begin entering service from the middle of this year, with the inter-city trains taking over London – Norwich services by end of 2019. The full roll-out is scheduled to take two years. UK: The first of 10 Stadler Flirt electric multiple-units which Greater Anglia has ordered for use on Stansted Express branded services between London Liverpool Street and Stansted Airport was delivered to the operator’s Norwich depot on February 28.It will now undergo safety and performance testing before it is approved for passenger service.
Molex has introduced a new line of radio frequency products, BNC RF Connectors and Assemblies. Designed for 8K High-Speed, High Definition TV (HDTV), video equipment and camera manufacturers, these new products yield return loss performance that exceeds SMPTE 2082-1 standards, allowing for future bandwidth expansion without needing to change connector hardware.The new BNC RF connectors solve several customer challenges. They transmit signals up to 12 GHz and feature the best impedance matching available. They allow users to exceed the performance requirements of serial-data transmission for 8K HD televisions and video equipment such as cameras, monitors and switching gear. The higher bandwidth helps carry the higher amounts of data needed for 8K HD video applications, delivering cutting-edge performance and allowing the equipment OEMs to utilize a single video port versus three in the 4K HD video devices. Options for design flexibility include right-angle, vertical and bulkhead PCB configurations.The 12 GHz BNC RF Connectors and Assemblies are available in 75 Ohm impedance, and are backward compatible with 3 GHz 75 Ohm BNC connectors. The major impetus for the new design is the projected demand from users for 8K HDTV products for the broadcast-television market. The Society of Motion Picture Television Engineers is regularly updating its standards for hardware design, meaning constant changes for those within the industry. Molex helps customers stay ahead by unveiling connectors and assemblies that exceed the serial data transmission standards of 8K HDTV, 8K HD video and various broadcast applications. These BNC connector solutions also allow for bandwidth expansion in the future without needing to change hardware.For more information about the Molex BNC RF Connectors and Assemblies, click here.

Valentina Shevchenko (12-3 MMA, 1-2 UFC) took apart the ex-champ Holly Holm (10-2 MMA, 3-2 UFC) to earn a unanimous decision. The upset win highlighted tonights card of UFC action on FOX event at United Center in Chicago.Shevchenko was knocked down in the opening round by a strong right hand, but then had no problems adjusting her timing and found a right hook counter that repeatedly found its target. Every time Holly Holm charged forward she would only be intercepted by a punch and a follow-up leg kick. Over the third and fourth rounds Holm would remain stagnant in her approach and this allowed the crafty Shevchenko to repeat her successful formula. “She’s newer in the UFC, but I knew I had my hands full with this fight,” Holm said afterward. “When they offered it to me, I didn’t want to act like I didn’t want to take it. I knew it was a really big challenge. What can you do? I know it was a competitive fight, and I take nothing away from her. I was taught all the right things. My coaches teach me everything. My performance was not right tonight.”Shevchenko had this to say after the big win, “It’s very important in my career,” she said. “My strategy was to do everything I know, to put all my heart, all my power, everything that I learned in more than 20 years in martial arts.
