Note de contenu :	« There is only one thing that money can’t buy. True love.... ». This was the beginning of a popular song composed and sung by “The Shadows” in the sixties. These words came to my mind when the members of the FISM Consultancy Groups accepted with enthusiasm to help the BoD with their knowledge and experience. Let me say that they don’t need visibility , they are already very well-­‐known for the expertise in their field; they don’t need recognition, they already have received several awards; they don’t need to advance their career, they have already reached success. They have purely and simply let their feelings speak for one of the true loves of their life: Magic. The BoD is very happy and proud to rely on such personalities. We are convinced that this collaboration will help FISM to earn its place in the pantheon of the Arts. We are pleased to announce that two more groups are now installed. The first one, dealing with “Legal Consultancy” is ready to start work immediately, It will be composed of the four following members whose curriculum I’m joining : Marc LINETT (Toronto - CANADA) Birthdate: 08/22/1947 Academic and Professional Resume • Trial lawyer since 1975 to date • Senior Partner in firm of Linett & Timmis in Toronto, Canada • Member of the Bar of Ontario since 1975 to date • Member of the Bar of Quebec, retired • Member of the Bar of British Columbia, retired • McGill University Law School, Montreal, Canada, 1973 L.LB. • McGill University Law School, Montreal, Canada, 1972 B.C.L. • University of Montreal, Montreal, Canada,1969 B.A. Memberships • Law Society of Upper Canada • Canadian Bar Association • Ontario Trial Lawyers Association • Advocates' Society • Toronto Lawyers Association Magic Associations • Canadian Association of Magicians • International Brotherhood of Magicians • Past President of Ring 17, Toronto, Canada • Advisor to Ring 17, Toronto, Canada Christian PIRKER (Geneva - SWITZERLAND) Birthdate: 06/05/1970 Academic and Professional Resume • Admitted to the Geneva, 1996 • Accredited “FSA Mediator” in 2002 • Master in Law, University of Geneva Law School, Geneva, Switzerland, 1989-94 • BA in Art, Ecole du Louvre, Paris, France, 1993-96 • SAWI, Introduction to marketing, 1992 Present Position • Founder and partner of PIRKER + PARTNER, Geneva law firm, since 2008 • Magistrate at the TPI (Geneva’s first degree of the civil court), 2011 • Legal teacher at the Head, Geneva University of Art and Design, since 2010 • Teacher in Negotiation, Université de Lyon 3, France, since 2004 • Arbiter, WIPO Arbitration and Mediation Center for domain name dispute resolution, 2004 • Curator of « Controverses », Art exhibition, venue in Switzerland, France, Belgium, Austria, Luxembourg, Italy, Czech Republic, Denmark since 2008 Dr. Detlev SPARBERG (Saarbruecken, GERMANY) Birthdate: 22/12/1941 Academic and Professional Resume • Two law degrees and law doctorate • Special training in tax and budget law and government auditing • Head of the legal department of IRS • Court Member and Section Leader in charge of corruption fighting at the National Audit Office, Germany • Member of the International Board of Auditors for NATO • Various international activities for the OECD, Paris • Lectures in several (especially East-European) countries • Specialized in the review of Laws and Rules Artistic Resume • Member of the German Magic Circle (and IBM) since about 50 years • Specialized in performing for children in kindergartens Charity Work • Several hundred charity performances for senior homes and kindergartens Douwe W.
