Property owners won a significant victory in the recent case of Pakdel v. San Francisco, in which the U.S. Supreme Court rejected a restrictive view of the “finality requirement,” which generally requires a government decision to be final before the property owner can file suit to challenge that decision.

Flexible semiparametric joint modeling: an application to estimate individual lung function decline and risk of pulmonary exacerbations in cystic fibrosis | Emerging Themes in Epidemiology | Full Text
In this paper, we described a flexible joint modeling technique aimed at analyzing long sequences of longitudinal and time-to-event data, and used it to simultaneously characterize the nonlinear progression of FEV and assess risk of pulmonary exacerbation events for individual CF patients. We demonstrated how this approach could be used to inform patient management regarding rapid decline in lung function and assessment of pulmonary exacerbation risk over time.

There’s little point in sitting back and complaining endlessly about the impact that austerity has had on council balances, even though the harm is immense and the figures colossal – in Birmingham we expect to have taken almost £800m out of the council’s budget between 2010 and 2020.
