Abstract— Members of the Parisian robe Lamoignon family were among the most prominent dévots of the French Catholic Reformation. This article explores the family’s religious engagement through six substantial biographies or vies written by close relatives between 1663 and 1688–90, which reflected on the devotional lives of Chrétien and Marie Lamoignon and three of their four children, Guillaume, Anne and Madeleine. It analyses how the authors adopted the popular strategy of life-writing to recall, reflect on and interpret the significance of their religious choices and experiences for themselves and for the family as a whole. Appraisal of their habits became building blocks for the construction of what the authors defined as a Lamoignon ‘family spirit’, which included a rhetoric of humility that was designed to withstand pride, deflect accusations of venality, validate the family’s advancement and inflect their history with a cohesive spiritual identity.

The facile preparation of three regioisomeric thienopyrrolocarbazoles applying a convenient C-H activation approach is presented. Derived from indolo[3,2,1-<i>jk</i>]carbazole, the incorporation of thiophene into the triarylamine framework significantly impacted the molecular properties of the parent scaffold. The developed thienopyrrolocarbazoles enrich the family of triarylamine donors and constitute a novel building block for functional organic materials.

HIP1 (huntingtin interacting protein 1) has two close relatives: HIP1R (HIP1-related) and yeast Sla2p. All three members of the family have a conserved domain structure, suggesting a common function. Over the past decade, a number of studies have characterized these proteins using a combination of biochemical, imaging, structural and genetic techniques. These studies provide valuable information on binding partners, structure and dynamics of HIP1/HIP1R/Sla2p. In general, all suggest a role in CME (clathrin-mediated endocytosis) for the three proteins, though some differences have emerged. In this mini-review we summarize the current views on the roles of these proteins, while emphasizing the unique attributes of each family member.

Background: The Family Nurse Partnership (FNP) is a licensed intensive home visiting intervention programme delivered to teenage mothers which was originally introduced in England in 2006 by the Department of Health and is now provided through local commissioning of public health services and supported by a national unit led by a consortium of partners. The Building Blocks (BB) trial aimed to explore the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of this programme. This paper reports the results of an economic evaluation of the Building Blocks randomised controlled trial (RCT) based on a cost-consequence approach. Methods: A large sample of 1618 families was followed-up at various intervals during pregnancy and for two years after birth. A cost-consequence approach was taken to appraise the full range of costs arising from the intervention including both health and social measures of cost alongside the consequences of the trial, specifically, the primary outcomes. Results: A large number of potential factors were identified that are likely to attract additional costs beyond the implementation costs of the intervention including both health and non-health outcomes. Conclusion: Given the extensive costs and only small beneficial consequences observed within the two year follow-up period, the cost-consequence model suggests that the FNP intervention is unlikely to be worth the substantial costs and policy makers may wish to consider other options for investment.

Criminal laws regulating asset recovery of corruption today experience a paradigm oversight since it only relies on the money substitute in corruption under Article 18 of Law No. 31, 1999 concerning The Eradication of The Crime of Corruption as amended with the Law No. 20, 2001 in which asset recovery is addressed only to the convict. In fact, modus to cover up the proceed of corruption usually involves the family, close relatives or confidants including the heirs. The obstacle in recovering the asset is that civil lawsuit is not yet effective as the means to recover the asset, the organization of law enforcement, the ratification of 2003 UNCAC that is also not yet effectively implemented in Indonesian law, and the laws against corruption that are weak. Future concept of law in asset recovery of proceed of corruption by the culprit and the heirs in order to materialize a legal welfare state should at least done through progressive laws i.e. reformation of law, optimization of Mutual Legal Assistance, the widening of authority implemented by the Eradication Commission of Corruption in recovering the asset as the proceed of corruption, the strong inter-agency coordination of law enforcements, and the urgency to promulgate the Recovery Asset Act.Keyword: Recovery; Proceed of Corruption; HeirsABSTRAKPerangkat hukum pidana dalam mengembalikan aset hasil tindak pidana korupsi pada saat ini mengalami kekeliruan paradigma karena hanya mengandalkan uang pengganti kejahatan korupsi yang terkandung dalam Pasal 18 Undang-Undang Nomor 31 Tahun 1999 Tentang Pemberantasan Tindak Pidana Korupsi sebagaimana telah diubah dengan Undang-Undang Nomor 20 Tahun 2001, di mana Pengembalian harta atau kekayaan hanya ditujukan kepada terpidana. Padahal modus menyembunyikan harta kekayaan hasil korupsi biasanya dengan menggunakan sanak keluarga, kerabat dekat atau orang kepercayaannya termasuk para ahli warisnya. Hambatan pengembalian aset tindak pidana korupsi disebabkan belum efektifnya gugatan perdata sebagai sarana untuk mengembalikan aset hasil kejahatan korupsi, kelembagaan penegak hukum, belum efektifnya Ratifikasi UNCAC 2003 dilaksanakan dalam hukum Indonesia, serta kelemahan di ranah regulasi tindak pidana korupsi. Konsep hukum mendatang dalam pengembalian aset tindak pidana korupsi pelaku dan ahli warisnya dalam mewujudkan negara hukum kesejahteraan, setidaknya ditempuh dalam beberapa langkah hukum progresif, yakni perbaikan regulasi peraturan perundang-undangan, optimalisasi Bantuan Hukum Timbal Balik, Perluasan kewenangan Komisi Pemberantasan Korupsi dalam Pengembalian Aset hasil tindak pidana korupsi, Penguatan koordinasi antar lembaga penegak hukum, serta menyegerakan menyelesaikan Undang-Undang Pengembalian Aset.Kata Kunci: Pengembalian; Aset Korupsi; Ahli Waris

This chapter argues that a number of precursor institutions of the long-distance trade organization developed locally, independently, and endemically in many different places along the Eurasian landmass. It shows that there is often no direct and clear evidence for the endogenous origins of institutions. The chapter also discusses the endemic appearance of an institution that does not have a clear pattern of migration but, together with its relatively simple structure, supports the identification of an endogenous institution. Endogenous institutions are often organic, as is the case with the itinerant trader or the family, or simple institutions that address basic functions, such as the loan, agency, or ship. They are to be found throughout Eurasia, and there is no historical evidence of a single historical origin for any of them or of a clear route of their migration.
