Woodlands (County) v Whitecourt (Town), 2024 ABKB 388 (“Woodlands”) and Brazeau (County) v Drayton Valley (Town), 2024 ABKB 445 (“Brazeau”) The Alberta Court of King's Bench ("Court") addressed the reasonableness review of an arbitrator's jurisdiction in Woodlands and Brazeau. In Woodlands, the Court applied the reasonableness standard from Vavilov for administrative tribunals, as the Arbitrator's role under Part 17.2 of the Municipal Government Act ("MGA") was akin to that of a tribunal.

Abstract Time-resolved functional connectivity (trFC) assesses the time-resolved coupling between brain regions using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data. This study aims to compare two techniques used to estimate trFC, to investigate their similarities and differences when applied to fMRI data. These techniques are the sliding window Pearson correlation (SWPC), an amplitude-based approach, and phase synchronization (PS), a phase-based technique.

Ghanaian dancehall star Shatta Wale has been honoured by his ‘father’ with a two-sided 8,000-stone diamond necklace following his recent crowning as Artists of the Year at the just-ended Ghana Music Awards (GMA) UK.
