Greece: EU announces new emergency support for housing
The European Commission announced a new support package to help Greece integrate refugees and migrants. The Emergency Support To Integration & Accommodation programme (ESTIA) was presented during a press conference on 27 July 2017. € 151 million out of the € 209 million total package will focus on mainstream accommodation and financial aid.
93.5 million euros are dedicated to refugee families and will allow them to live in rented accommodations in Greek cities. The rental project should help 30,000 vulnerable people move out of refugee camps by the end of 2017. It is to be implemented in cooperation with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) which is in charge of finding 22,000 rental places, including 2,000 on Greek islands.
Another 57.6 million euros are earmarked for monthly allowances to asylum seekers and refugees through a special card which will also serve for food, medicine and transportation. The aim is to enable them to meet their basic needs with dignity.
The remaining budget will be allocated to humanitarian NGOs to complement existing projects aimed at addressing pressing humanitarian needs in Greece, including primary health care, psychosocial support, improved hygiene conditions, as well as informal education.
This new funding programme more than doubles the EU emergency support to Greece in the context of the "refugee crisis", bringing it to a total of 401 million euros.

Mijas town hall, in collaboration with the Asociación Intercambia, has held an informative talk with the students of IES Vega de Mijas to inform them of a youth exchange programme that allows young people to participate in various training projects in different EU countries. The talk, in which almost 100 students participated, was aimed at young people from 16 years of age.
The exchanges offer youngsters the opportunity to acquire knowledge outside of the formal education system to develop new skills, while also making them aware of social issues by learning about other cultures.
The projects offered deal with topics ranging from the environment, history and culture, as well as social problems such as bullying and cyberbullying.
Youth councillor María Francisca Alarcón encouraged young people to participate in the initiative, “since it is a different and extremely motivating way to acquire life experience and to know first-hand other social realities”.
The initiatives take place throughout the year with an average of two exchanges per month with a duration of between seven and ten days.
Depending on the project and location chosen, a minimum knowledge of the language is advised, although it is generally not necessary to have qualifications in languages to participate.

Cuts will mean fewer officers on the beat, forces warned
Public spending cuts will inevitably lead to fewer police officers on the streets, the leader of the country’s chief constables is to say today.
Sir Hugh Orde, president of the Association of Chief Police Officers, will tell its conference in Manchester that the current record number of police officers is unsustainable in the climate of austerity. He is expected to say that the cuts will hit all areas of policing — from the visible presence on the streets to the vital work that goes on out of sight of the public.
“There is a clear understanding within the service that there will be substantial cuts in funding across the public sector, and whilst spending on police taken as a percentage of total central government spend

Spooked by volatile reports from the Silicon Valley Bank in early March, many customers panicked and withdrew their money, creating the largest bank failure since the 2007-2008 financial crisis. The problem — investors and customers lost confidence in the bank, proving the perception of a banks’ reliability can significantly impact its success.
Investors tend to respond negatively to volatility in firms’ performance. To mitigate investors’ concerns, when some banks receive extremely high income, they occasionally delay reporting that amount until a later date when the income has dropped. In most cases, this practice is completely legal and is known in the industry as “income smoothing.”
A new study at the University of Missouri shows that the frequency at which banks participate in income smoothing may be lessened by government guarantees — or guaranteed support from the government in the event the bank needs help ensuring every customer has access to their money. For the study, Felipe Bastos Gurgel Silva, an assistant professor in the Robert J. Trulaske, Sr. College of Business, analyzed the reports of several European banks during two historical situations when the amount of their government support fluctuated.
“The banking sector wouldn’t function at all without government guarantees,” Silva said. “They help the banks be prepared for extreme situations. And we found that, as a result of this, the banks feel less pressure to artificially create the perception of performance consistency in their public reports.”
To determine if firms were income smoothing, Silva and a team of researchers, including Manuela Dantas, an assistant professor at California State University-Northridge, and Ken Merkley, a professor at Indiana University, analyzed several reported numbers, including loan loss provisions and pre-provision earnings. Because government guarantees cannot be randomized as they often are in biotech trials, the researchers analyzed two situations where government guarantees changed due to “external” factors not related to the individual banking sectors of their study. Specifically, the authors analyzed the increase in implicit government guarantees caused by the creation of the Eurozone and the removal of explicit government guarantees granted to the Landesbanken, a group of large state-owned banks in Germany.
The Eurozone creation in 1999 happened for geopolitical reasons. However, the creation of a monetary union and the European Central Bank as a lender of last resort increased the implicit government guarantees of the banks headquartered in the first countries that formed the Eurozone. Conversely, the Landesbanken had their explicit guarantees removed in 2005 because other banks in Germany complained that such guarantees violated terms of the European Union Treaty.
“While our study of the Eurozone creation does not prove a causal relationship, we show the findings can be applied to many banks, not just the ones studied,” he said. “And while the findings about Landesbanken may not be proven to be applicable to other banks, we were able to find much more of a causal relationship between government guarantees and income smoothing. Together, the fact that we study two complementary settings and that the results of the two are directionally consistent give us a great sense of how these guarantees impact banks all over the world.”
While income smoothing adds to the total amount of manipulation in public reports, Silva said there are positives and negatives about the trend. He suggested that if reports are smoother overall, it boosts the total amount of investors in the market, potentially positively impacting the economy. However, he said prior research also shows it may be beneficial to limit the total amount of income smoothing occurring at once to help decrease manipulation overall.
“There is prior research, by people right here at the University of Missouri, that shows that accounting manipulation can be an indicator of an upcoming recession,” Silva said. “Income smoothing is one form of accounting manipulation. Even though it isn’t necessarily done with the intent of manipulating investors’ perceptions, many argue it is still distortion.”
“Government Guarantees and Banks’ Income Smoothing” was published in the Journal of Financial Services Research.

The reviews for “Hustlers” have started to roll in, and all critics seem to agree on one thing: Jennifer Lopez’s performance as the ringleader of a group of strippers that scam wealthy men, deserves an Oscar recognition.
Since it was announced, the movie “Hustlers” has been creating high expectations in both film critics and eager fans that can’t wait to see Jennifer Lopez, Lizzo, Cardi B, Lili Reinheart, Keke Palmer and Constance Wu bringing a string of strippers to life.
On its first days in cinemas, the Lorene Scafaria directed film has earned praise from all sides of the entertainment industry.
The film is based on a New York Magazine article written by Jessica Pressler in 2015, which, at the same time, shared the real story of a group of strippers that conned Wall Street men after the 2008 recession caused havoc in the U.S economy.
Lopez, at the front of the film, gives life to Ramona, a “tough cookie” that acts as the ringleader of the operation and that, at the same time, shows the reality of thousands of working moms in the country that have to hustle to take care of their families.
“She knows exactly what she wants, and she knows how to get it,” Lopez told People Chica of her character.
J-Lo’s entrance in the film has been described by many as enthralling and long-time-coming. The scene is a pole dance number where she shows her months’ worth of practice swinging and seducing her audience to the rhythm of Fiona Apple’s “Criminal.”
Of the scene, Scafaria said she wanted to treat it “more like a sports movie, to highlight the athleticism of it, and to celebrate that this is Jennifer Lopez at 50 years old, better than we’ve ever seen her.”
Lopez, on the other hand, confessed to Variety that she was terrified.
“I felt exposed. I was like, ‘I’ve never done anything like this. I’m going to be up there in [expletive] dental floss. What is this? Who is this person?’ And then you get up there, and you have to have a ‘[expletive] you,’ empowered attitude,” she explained.
“You have to take your power back. You have to be so bold. It’s almost like when you say you’re a rock star, you have to be arrogant to go up there in front of all those people, or you crumble."
"You realize it’s the same type of balls that it takes to do something like that. And these women have that. They are tough, hard, vulnerable, and damaged. It’s a great character to play.”
“Hustlers” I currently soaring with a 88% of approval on Rotten Tomatoes, and has earned $33.2 million on its opening weekend, debuting at number 2 in the box office after the terror film “It: Chapter Two.”
It’s the biggest opening in the box office in Lopez’s career and has been followed by a series of reviews suggesting that her performance could give J-Lo her first-ever Academy Award nomination.

Benjamin Lee from The Guardian summed up Lopez’s performance with the following paragraph:
“She’s so perfectly calibrated as Ramona that it feels like she’s been unintentionally building toward it for years. Awards attention would be deserved, but a far greater result would be a more expansive set of roles in her future.”

In an interview with Hoda Kotb for Sirius XM, Lopez had an emotional reaction when the Oscar’s comments were brought to her attention, as she explained that as a little girl, she used to dream of being in her position today, so all the buzz is overwhelming and also a dream come true.
“We shot the movie in 29 days, so it was a big challenge. We knew we had a lot to do. It was a big cast of all these amazing women, and the pole dancing was also very challenging. For me, that was like an acrobatic skill that I had to learn from scratch.”
However, Lopez also told Extra that, although she’s flattered, she’s not getting her hopes too high.
“Hustlers” is currently in cinemas around the world.


Lady Bears earn top seed with win over Middlesboro
Published 6:55 pm Monday, September 25, 2017
The Harlan County Lady Bears capped a five-game-in-seven-day stretch with a 1-0 win over district foe Knox Central on Thursday.
The busy schedule appeared to have a dramatic impact on the Lady Bears as it appeared that they never really got going.
“We’ve had a really busy last couple of days and coming off the district matchup between us and Middlesboro, we just haven’t played with the fire that I like,” HCHS coach David Day said.
Harlan County started slow with the lone goal being scored by Madison Blanton off a deflected pass midway through the first half. Amber Allen got the assist.
“Our defense played well. We probably had possession of the ball 80 percent of the game. We have to put the ball in the net,” Day said.
Knox Central’s best scoring opportunity came late in the first half after a handball in the box. A penalty kick was taken and goalkeeper Hailey Gaw made the game-changing save as she recorded her third shutout of the year.
“If that ball gets by our goalie it is a totally different game the second half,” Day said.
Harlan County had several opportunities during the second half to convert but couldn’t put it in the back of the net. Knox Central got two shots on goal in the second half.
The Lady Bears traveled to Harrogate, Tenn., to take on J. Frank White Academy and left with a 2-0 win.
Madison Blanton and Hayley Key found the back of the net for the game’s only goals. Amber Allen and Emily Day got the assists.
The Lady Bears hosted Middlesboro in what proved to be the deciding game of the regular season district championship.
The Lady Jackets struck paydirt first with their leading scorer, Aubrey Sowders, finding just enough room to slip a ball past the diving goalie on a corner kick.
“We tried to mark (play man to man) on Sowders all night. She is a major weapon of theirs and we felt that if we slowed her down then we could slow the rest of the team down. She just slipped in behind our defender on the corner kick and drove it home,” Day said. “Abigail Middleton played her tough all night. Abigail was a difference maker in this game although it won’t show up in the stat line.”
Harlan County once again won the time of possession in this game possessing the ball about 75 percent of the game. That pressure finally cracked the Middlesboro defense late in the first half as pressure put on by Key caused the Lady Jackets into a handball in the penalty area. Junior right midfielder Taylor Rowe stepped up and put the ball by the keeper on the ensuing penalty kick.
Harlan County came out with pressure early in the second half as Key made a run by the defense and got on the back end of a pass from Emily Fultz to make the score 2-1. Several minutes later, Key once again got by the defense and was inside the penalty area when she was fouled from behind giving the Lady Bears yet another penalty shot. Rowe found the back of the net again.
Middlesboro put pressure on the Bears’ defense and Gaw got a hand on a hard shot by Baylee Woody and went off the crossbar. A handball was called on Harlan County on the rebound and Emily Barnwell beat Gaw on a penalty kick to make the game 3-2.
Harlan County quickly turned the tide and made the game 4-2 with less than 10 minutes to go as Amber Allen stole the ball at midfield and made a pass to Blanton who found a streaking Key for the goal.
“Our defense exhaled a little after our fourth goal and let Middlesboro get behind us,” said assistant coach Troy Gaw.
Middlesboro went on the attack quickly and found the back of the net on a goal by Barnwell.
“We stepped up big after their third goal for the final minutes of the game,” Gaw said.
“This was a hard fought game and I am proud of all our girls. A lot of things won’t show up in the stats, but everyone played their hearts out.” Day continued. “We are proud to be back to back regular season champions, now we just need to finish it in the district tournament.”
Harlan County started its busy schedule with a doubleheader against visiting Buckhorn.
In the first game of the doubleheader, HC won 10-0 with Cali Asher, Chelsey Caldwell, Allison Cook, Hayley Key, Hannah Sturgill and Elina Turner each scoring one goal apiece, while Madison Blanton and Abigail Middleton scored two each. Amber Allen, Cali Asher, Emily, Fultz, Hailey Gaw, Taylor Rowe and Hannah Sturgill each had one assist, while Emily Day had three.
In the second game of the doubleheader, Harlan County won 5-0 with Emily Fultz, Hailey Gaw, Hannah Pittman, Abigail Stephens and Angel Thomas each scoring one goal. Gracen Anderson, Elizabeth Ball, Angel Davenport, Emily Day and Hailey Gaw each had an assist.
Harlan County hosts Letcher Central on Tuesday, travels to Perry Central on Sept. 28 and travels to Whitley County on Oct. 3 to round out its regular season play.

Right to examine the accounting of the limited company
One of the rights that the Law recognizes to the partners of a limited liability company is the right to information.
It is justified because every partner who has invested in the capital of a company has the right to know how it is being managed and thus be able to make the appropriate decisions (exercise of the vote in the general meeting general, exigency of responsibility to the administrators, sale of their participation, etc.); and with even greater reason this right is justified if the characteristics of the company make it difficult for it to sell its stake (SAP of Barcelona, Section 15ª, of 9/12/2013 ).
Within this right to information is the possibility of demanding a direct examination of accounting.
Examine limited partnership accounting
From the call of the general meeting and until the date it is held, all partners can request the immediate and free delivery of the documents that are going to be debate to approve in the general meeting; If the approval of the company accounts is included in the agenda, a copy of the corresponding annual accounts may be required (art. 272.2 Capital Companies Act).
When the partner has at least 5 percent of the capital, or several participants are grouped that together reach or exceed that percentage, they will have the right to examine the supporting documents for the preparation of the accounts (art. 272.3 LSC).
When exercising this right, the following points must be taken into account:
- Members have the right to directly access:
- To the final formulation of the annual accounts, that is, the balance sheet, the profit and loss account, the management report and the audit report, receiving a copy of all of this.
- Accounting books and computers or recordings containing accounting notes.
- To the background or supports with which the accounting is prepared (invoices, delivery notes, contracts, payroll, bank movements, list of stocks, tax declarations, etc.)
- The exam does not include the right to obtain photocopies or photographs of the documentation. The Law only refers to the “examination” and not to obtaining any type of reproduction.
- For said examination, the partners can be assisted by an accounting expert.
- The viewing of the documentation must be done at the company’s address.
- This documentary examination right is compatible:
- With the power that partners who reach at least 5% of the capital have to request, within the first 3 months following the end of the financial year, the appointment by the Mercantile Registry of an auditor to review the accounting if the company did not have it designated (art. 265 LSC).
- With the possibility of requesting reports or clarifications before the general meeting on the matters included in the agenda (art. 196 LSC).
The recognition of this right to examine the accounts is subject to it being exercised within the legal parameters; that ultimately meets the legitimacy requirements (STS of 09/19/2013), as it is required within the indicated period and is linked to the purpose of the general shareholders’ meeting.
The company’s administrative body may deny analysis of the commented documentation:
- If you understand that the interests of the company are harmed, an objection that cannot be raised if the request is made by one or more partners who jointly own at least 25 percent of the share capital.
- If you consider that it is an abusive exercise of rights by the partner. This allegation can be denied by the courts. The sentence of the A.P. of Madrid, sect. 28th, of 07/07/2017 declared that the abusive nature of this right must be considered on a case-by-case basis depending on the characteristics of the company, the distribution of its share capital, the volume and form of the information requested, weighing the concurrent circumstances. For example, this Court recognized that a high capital participation of the claimant partner in a company with a small number of partners reinforces the right to request an accounting examination. This is also reinforced by the concurrence of indications of irregularities in corporate management or that the auditors have not been able to issue their opinion due to not showing proof of investment.
The unjustified refusal to allow the accounting examination constitutes an infringement of the partner’s right to information. Which may be grounds for nullity of the agreements adopted at the General Meeting on approval of the annual accounts, approval of corporate management and application of the result.

Policy paper which seeks to contribute to an ongoing debate about how best to use health and social care resources to achieve the best possible outcomes in difficult financial circumstances.
health and health care
The description of care trusts as either the ‘vanguard’ of integrated organisations or a ‘lost tribe’ was made by the former Chief Executive of a care trust at an HSMC learning event soon after their creation. It nicely captures the mixed views of care trusts as either the cutting edge of integration between health and social care or as a band of individuals and organisations that have happened upon a clumsy structural solution as a way of shielding themselves from other agendas.
This document, and its Annexes, is the IA of the Health and Social Care Bill.
It assesses the benefits, costs and risks of implementing the policies proposed in the NHS White Paper Equity and Excellence: Liberating the NHS that require primary legislation.
This Research Paper summarises a wide range of social statistics. Subjects covered include crime and justice, defence, education, elections, health and population. This edition includes an article on "The CPI – uprating benefits and pensions". The Topical subject page includes information about fuel poverty and seasonal flu statistics.
This briefing argues that support given as social care can help improve health and reduce health disadvantage. Improving access to social care interventions is therefore important to any strategy for reducing health inequality. The concept of health inequalities refers to the avoidable health disadvantage people experience as a result of adverse social factors, such as lack of economic or social capital, or marginalisation. People with higher socio-economic position in society have better life chances and more opportunities to flourish. They also have better health.
Every political party's election manifesto should include an outline of long term entitlements to highlight a commitment to treating older people fairly, according to a report by housing and care provider Housing 21, Fair ageing: the challenge of our lifetime. The report brings together key messages and themes to emerge from a series of events organised by the Fabian Society for Housing 21 in partnership with Counsel and Care - the Fairness in an Ageing Society programme.
Briefing that examines the implications of the personalisation agenda for NHS staff.
Report on how government deals with the challenge of helping people to make different choices about their health. It focuses on building current approaches, using the latest evidence from areas such as behavioural economics and psychology, to suggest ways in which the government could become more effective in this area, to help people to make healthier choices where they wish to do so.
This White Paper sets out the government’s strategy for liberating the NHS in the current parliamentary term and beyond. It provides clarity of purpose: a more responsive, patient-centred NHS, which achieves outcomes that are among the best in the world. It provides certainty, through a clear policy framework to support that ambition, with increased autonomy and clear accountability at every level in the NHS.
The Personal Social Services Research Unit’s (PSSRU) mission is to conduct high-quality research on social and health care to inform and influence policy, practice and theory.

DescriptionThisapplication is the national stage of PCT/EP2005/011492 filed on Oct. 27, 2005 and also claims Paris Convention priority of DE 10 2004 053 469.1 filed on Nov. 03, 2004.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The invention concerns a loop-forming nonwoven material for a mechanical closure element, in particular, for disposable hygiene articles such as various types of diapers, incontinence articles and pads, wherein a first upper side of the nonwovenmaterial has first larger non-bonded areas which are separated from one another to form islands.
Mechanically acting closure elements, which are often called hook/loop closure elements or Velcro closure elements, are produced to have a good closing action based on engagement or hooking of the cooperating closure elements and which cannot beaccidentally released from each other. On the other hand, these closure elements should be releasable when desired, i.e. without separating or tearing the materials of the closure elements. In order to prevent this, the loop-forming component of themechanical closure element either has textile bonds or, for nonwoven materials, the fibers of the nonwoven are sufficiently solidified or bonded. Increased nonwoven solidification results in a decrease in the adhesive force of the mechanical closuresystem.
EP 0 870 081 B1 describes a loop-forming nonwoven material in accordance with the preamble of claim 1 which provides non-bonded island-type areas on a preferably continuous non-bonded, nonwoven fiber sheet by using calendar embossing to effect acontinuous bonded region of nonwoven material between the non-bonded areas. The areas between the island-type non-bonded areas which are solidified through calendar embossing, can essentially no longer be used for adhesive bonding.
EP 1 209 271 A1 discloses a light, nonwoven material which has mutually insulated line-segment type, bonded areas and nonwoven materials with a honeycomb-shaped pattern of embossed points. WO 95/33390 discloses a nonwoven/sheet laminate, whereina presolidified fiber nonwoven sheet is joined to an elastomeric film layer via a grid of discrete jointing points.
EP 1 048 236 A2 proposes disposition of fusion-melting, mutually parallel continuous fibers onto a fusion-melting base layer and to connect them to the base layer through straight jointing lines extending transversely to the fiber direction,thereby forming loops between the jointing lines, which may cooperate with a hook-forming component of a closure element.
It is the underlying purpose of the present invention to provide a nonwoven material which is improved in view of closing reliability and durability, thereby taking into consideration the above-mentioned target conflict in forming a loop-formingcomponent of a mechanical closure element.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
This object is achieved in accordance with the invention with a loop-forming nonwoven material of the above-mentioned type in that the first larger non-bonded areas are delimited by bonded contours and are surrounded outside of the limitation bytwo smaller non-bonded areas and are spaced apart from each other by these two smaller non-bonded areas.
The larger non-bonded areas are primarily available for forming a mechanically acting closing function. They are delimited or defined by a bonded contour which may be formed, in particular, through linear embossing, in particular thermalembossing, produced in particular through ultrasound welding or calendar embossing, wherein these embossing lines may be continuous or interrupted, in particular, dashed or dash-dotted lines. Further smaller non-bonded areas or fields are providedoutside of this bonded contour between these first non-bonded island-type areas, which separate the first larger non-bonded areas from each other. The island-type larger areas are thereby disposed sufficiently proximate to each other, or the secondsmaller non-bonded areas surround bonded partial areas in such a manner, that a maximum circular surface which can be inscribed in the first larger non-bonded areas cannot fit within the second non-bonded areas.
The inventive nonwoven material provides an overall and individually projecting and sufficiently large anchoring area for the hook-forming component of the mechanical closure element in the first larger non-bonded island-type areas. The furthersecond non-bonded areas between the island-type first non-bonded areas facilitate as continuous a mechanical connection as possible. An equally sufficient solidification of the loop-forming nonwoven material is obtained by the bonded contours whichdelimit the first non-bonded areas, and optionally supported by further bonded partial areas which, in turn, are surrounded by the second non-bonded areas and disposed between the first larger areas.
As mentioned above, the second smaller non-bonded areas advantageously have or, in particular, surround bonded partial areas to effect good solidity and proper embedding of the fibers of the nonwoven material. These partial areas, which may alsobe formed by embossing, in particular thermal embossing, may have any shape, wherein relatively short, narrow segments have proven to be advantageous for the partial areas, having a longitudinal extension of approximately two to ten times (preferably twoto eight times) their width.
Each straight connecting line advantageously extends between the first larger non-bonded island-type areas through a bonded contour or a bonded partial area which is disposed between the first larger areas in order to enhance embedding of thefibers into the nonwoven material.
The bonded contours advantageously have embossing lines or embossing line sections of a width of 0.2 to 1 mm, preferably 0.2 to 0.8 mm and moreover preferably 0.3 to 0.6 mm. They advantageously have a depth of 0.4 to 1.5 mm, preferably 0.4 to0.9 mm, preferentially 0.4 to 0.8 mm and moreover preferentially 0.5 to 0.7 mm.
The first larger non-bonded island-type areas advantageously have a dimension, in particular, a diameter of a circle inscribed in the area, of 2 to 15 mm, preferably 3 to 10 mm, preferentially 3 to 8 mm and with particular preference 4 to 7 mm.
The first larger non-bonded island-type areas advantageously have a surface portion of 5 to 75%, in particular 5 to 60%, in particular 10 to 50%, in particular 10 to 45%, in particular 15 to 45%, in particular 20 to 40%, and preferentially 30 to40% of the overall surface of the first upper side. In accordance with the invention, it has turned out that the first larger non-bonded island-type areas may cover a relatively moderate portion of the overall surface, since the closing function isadditionally supported by the smaller non-bonded areas or fields between the first larger non-bonded areas.
The shape of the first larger non-bonded island-type areas is not necessarily predetermined. Advantageously, they have a circular, oval, triangular or polygonal, preferably hexagonal or octagonal shape. These preferred structures provide anextensive anchoring area for the hook-forming component of the closure element. It turns out that the closing function is particularly effective through relatively large island-type areas having dimensions which are preferably identical in alldirections, as is the case with a circle or regular polygon, in particular, hexagon.
In one particularly suitable arrangement of the first island-type areas, these areas have a mutual separation from each other of at least 1 mm, preferably at least 1.5 mm, in particular at least 2 mm and preferentially at least 2.5 mm and withparticular preference at least 3 mm. They have, however a maximum separation of preferably maximally 10 mm, in particular maximally 5 mm.
One can obtain good and sufficient stability of the nonwoven material, i.e. good embedding of the fibers and thereby great solidity of the nonwoven material when the overall surface portion of bonded areas is preferably 10 to 60%, preferably 15to 40%, furthermore preferably 15 to 30%, in particular 15 to 25% and preferentially 19 to 22% of the overall area of the first surface. Bonded areas in this connection mean bonded contours which delimit the first island-type areas and also optionallyadditional bonded partial areas between the first island-type areas.
The inventive nonwoven material may preferably comprise a spunbonded material or a card web or a meltblown nonwoven or a water-needled nonwoven material. It may also advantageously be a nonwoven laminate which consists of several nonwovenlayers. In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the invention, the material comprises a spunbonded material and a card web which are connected to each other. In this case, the card web advantageously forms the first upper side and constitutes alanding zone for a hook-forming component of a mechanical closure element.
When the inventive hook-forming nonwoven material consists of several nonwoven layers, i.e. is a nonwoven laminate, these layers are advantageously connected to each other through applying the bonded contours delimiting the first largernon-bonded island-type areas. This may be realized e.g. by thermo embossing, in particular, by calendar embossing or ultrasound welding. When the inventive nonwoven material is formed as a nonwoven laminate, a nonwoven layer facing away from the firstupper side may be solidified by a further bonding pattern generated, in particular, through thermo embossing, in order to increase the overall solidity. This further nonwoven layer thus does not form the landing zone for a hook-forming component of theclosure element but is provided on the side facing away. The bonding pattern is preferably mounted during previous production of the further nonwoven layer to pre-solidify it.
The surface density of an inventive non-woven material is preferably 15 to 120 g/m2, in particular 20 to 90 g/m2, in particular 30 to 80 g/m2, in particular 40 to 70 g/m2, and preferentially 50 to 65 g/m2.
The surface density of the nonwoven layer which forms the first upper side and has the first nonbonded island-type areas, the bonded contours and the second non-bonded areas is preferably 10 to 60 g/m2, in particular 10 to 40 g/m2, inparticular 15 to 35 g/m2, and moreover in particular 20 to 35 g/m2.
The above-mentioned surface densities in connection with the claimed design of the first upper side produce nonwoven materials which do not only ensure good closing function in cooperation with a hook-forming component of a closure element butalso have good mechanical properties, in particular, in view of comfortable flexibility, and however also assume a supporting function. This means that these nonwoven materials can be used, in particular, as a belt in absorbent hygiene articles.
In view of the design of the nonwoven material, the nonwoven layer which forms the first upper side advantageously and suitably has fibers of a thickness of 1 to 10 dtex, preferably 2 to 8 dtex and preferably 3 to 6 dtex or consists of suchfibers. In another advantageous fashion, the nonwoven layer which forms the first upper side comprises hydrophilic fibers or consists of hydrophilic fibers.
When the inventive nonwoven material consists of several nonwoven layers, it may comprise one nonwoven layer as a carrier which has a surface density of 10 to 100 g/m2, preferably 15 to 60 g/m2, and moreover preferably 30 to 40g/m2. This carrier layer faces away from the first upper side. It advantageously comprises fibers of a thickness of 1 to 6 dtex, preferably 1 to 4 dtex and moreover preferably 2 to 4 dtex.
In a particularly advantageous further development of the invention, the nonwoven material is breathable, i.e. permeable to water and/or air. This improves the comfort of wear, in particular, when the nonwoven material is used as a belt forabsorbent hygiene articles.
As is mentioned above, the inventive nonwoven material advantageously has a stiffness of <0.80 N in particular <0.60 N, in particular <0.40 N, in particular <0.30 N, in particular <0.25 N, in particular <0.2 N, in particular<0.18 N, and moreover in particular <0.16 N, however at least 0.05 N. This stiffness is determined in accordance with the test method described in EP 0 699 066 B1 of the modified version of the test ASTM D 4032-82 CIRCULAR BEND, the disclosure ofwhich and the relevant content of EP 0 699 066 B1 are hereby explicitly incorporated by reference. In addition thereto, this test method is further specified, such that in the test arrangement the first upper side of the nonwoven laminate is disposed atthe bottom, i.e. forms that surface which faces away from the punch of the test apparatus.
A further subject matter of the present invention is a disposable hygiene article, in particular different types of diapers, incontinence diapers or pads, which is characterized by a mechanical closure element which comprises or is formed of aloop-forming nonwoven material in accordance with any one or more of the claims 1 through 24.
In such a hygiene article, the female Velcro fastener closure component of a conventional disposable diaper (see WO95/33390) may comprise or consist of this inventive nonwoven material.
Such a hygiene article may also comprise a belt that can be closed on top of itself and extends in the peripheral direction of the hip of a user. This belt forms a closed hip opening, and a main part having the absorbing components of thehygiene article is pulled from between the legs of a user when applying the article, and preferably detachably fixed to the previously closed belt.
In another particularly important embodiment of the invention, the belt is formed from a preferably one-piece material section, wherein the material section comprises or is formed of a non-woven material in accordance with one or more of theclaims 1 through 24.
This is advantageous in that the belt extends in the peripheral hip direction by 25 to 200 cm, in particular 40 to 180 cm, in particular 60 to 180 cm, in particular 100 to 180 cm and moreover 120 to 180 cm.
In another advantageous fashion, the belt or hook-forming component, which is formed by an inventive non-woven material, extends in the longitudinal direction of the hygiene article by 3 to 20 cm, in particular 3 to 15 cm, in particular 4 to 10cm and moreover, in particular, 4 to 6 cm.
The invention also concerns a hygiene article, wherein the loop-forming nonwoven material cooperates with a hook-forming component of a mechanical closure element for closing the hygiene article, such that an adhesive force as shearing force ofat least 5 N/25 mm and at most 80 N/25 mm is achieved. Preferred ranges are stated in the claims.
In this connection, reference is made to the fact that the invention also concerns a mechanical closure element for use in absorbent hygiene articles whose loop-forming component comprises or consists of an inventive nonwoven material.
A test method for determining the closing forces under shearing stress is described below. A tension testing machine of the type Z010/TN 2S, measuring load 100 N, available from the company Zwick GmbH & Co KG, Ulm, Germany can be used to performthe test method, which has a clamping jaw width for clamping the sample of 60 mm. For performing the test method, the tested closing system with loop-forming component and hook-forming component which adheres thereto, is disposed over a curved surfacewhich simulates the curvature of the belly area of a user (FIG. 4). The closure element is connected to the clamping jaws of the tension testing machine by a flexible substrate, e.g. an adhesive tape, which is adhesive on one side, of a preferred widthof 25 mm, available under the trade name STA 306 from the company 3M Deutschland GmbH in Neuss. The adhesive tape is made of polypropylene, its surface is coated with a urethane-modified silicon polymer. The surface density of the adhesive applicationis 23 g/m2. The sample disposed over the curved surface and consisting of planar sections of the closure element, which are disposed on top of each other in an adhesive fashion, is tensioned by the tension testing machine to exert shearing stressonto the adhering planar sections.
Preparation of the Sample:
The mechanical closure elements to be used, i.e. the loop-forming nonwoven material 106 and a hook-forming component 108 of the closing system are conditioned for 24 h at 23° C. and 50% relative air humidity. Samples of a size of50×300 mm are punched out of the loop-forming nonwoven material and disposed or fixed like a sandwich in the center between the ends of two one-sided adhesive tapes 101 of a width of 25 mm, which are glued against each other, such that the nonwovenmaterial projects by 50×250 mm (FIGS. 5a, 5b).
In the same fashion, a planar section of 25×20 mm is punched out of the hook-forming component 108 of the closure element and fixed by two tapes 141, which are adhesive on one side and are glued to each other with their sticking sides, suchthat the upper adhesive tape covers the rear side of the planar section and the lower adhesive tape abuts flush with the planar section (FIGS. 5a and 5b).
The planar section of the hook-forming component 108 is now disposed onto the hook-forming nonwoven material 106, wherein the separation from the longitudinal end edge of the nonwoven material is 10 mm and from each lateral longitudinal edge 12.5mm (FIG. 5a).
When the original, available loop-forming nonwoven material 106 is smaller and it is not possible to provide a sample of a size of 50 mm×300 mm, the size of the sample is selected to be 25 mm×30 mm and this section is disposed orfixed like a sandwich in the center between the ends of two one-sided adhesive tapes 101 described in more detail above, of a width of 25 mm, which are glued to each other, such that the nonwoven material projects by 25×20 mm (FIGS. 5c, 5d). Inthis case, the sections of the hook-forming component 108 and the loop-forming nonwoven material 106, prepared in this fashion, are disposed on top of each other over their full surface (FIGS. 5c, 5d).
The planar sections disposed on top of each other in this fashion or as described above, are connected to each other by rolling four times using a roll which is 50 mm wide and has a diameter of 100 mm with smooth surface and a weight of 5 kg,wherein the rolling speed is 20 to 100 mm/sec.
The loop-forming nonwoven material extended as described above is centered and clamped in the lower clamping jaw of the tension testing machine, and the opposite end of the hook-forming component extended as described above is clamped in acentered position into the movable upper clamping jaw of the tension testing machine.
The clamped sample is disposed over the device 100 shown in FIGS. 4, 6 which simulates the belly or hip area of a user. This device 100 is shown in perspective view in FIG. 6. It shows an arcuately curved surface 102 of polished steel with aroughness height of 5 to 25 μm and with a radius of curvature R of 400 mm at least in sections and a chord length SL of 300 mm. Deflection rollers 104 are moreover provided above and below the curved surface 102, having a diameter of 18 mm, whichdeflect the sample disposed on the curved surface, in a vertical direction by H=88 mm, where it is connected to clamps 20, 24 of the tension testing device (not shown). It is deflected through an angle α of 60°. This keeps the withdrawalangle substantially tangential to the curved surface and also constant. The planar sections 106, 108 disposed on top of each other of the components of the closure element are positioned relative to the curve surface 102, such that the hook-formingcomponent comes to rest in the center in the vertex S of the curved surface 102.
The movable clamp 24 to which the hook-forming component is connected, is then moved with the test speed (as stated below) in the direction of arrow P and the tensile force between the clamps is thereby determined. The test parameters are:
TABLE-US-00001 Test speed: 300 mm/min Clamping length of the sample 430 mm (see FIG. 4) Measuring path: distance until detachment of the closure element component n Pre-force: 0.2 N Test number: n ≥ 6
In the evaluation, the maximum force determined before the closure elements become detached, rounded to two decimal points in N (Newton), is noted and stated in the form of an average value of the n measurements and the standard deviation and aminimum value and a maximum value.
A hook-forming component which can be used together with the inventive nonwoven material as a loop-forming component of a mechanical closure element is shown e.g. under the trade name "Microplast" 42-288-HX200-PP3 by the company G. Binder GmbH &Co. KG Textil- und Kunststofftechnik, Holzgerlingen, Germany. FIGS. 7 and 8 show illustrations of the shape of the hook-forming component. The hooks have a mushroom shape with approximately hexagonal head surface. There are approximately 288 suchmushroom shaped projections per cm2. The material consists of polypropylene and has a thickness of approximately 0.42 mm. It was produced through extrusion. The height of the mushroom-shaped elevations from the base of the material isapproximately 0.26 mm. The separation between the edges of the heads is approximately 200 μm.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
FIG. 1 schematically shows a disposable belt diaper 2 with a main part 4 and an indicated absorption body 6. A one-piece material section 8 is joined to the main part 4, which forms a hip belt 10 of the hip diaper. FIG. 1 shows the belt in theunfolded state. The one-piece material section 8 is undetachably joined to an outer side 12 of the main part 4. It extends in the transverse direction 14 of the belt diaper 2 via lateral longitudinal edges 16 in the unfolded state, through at least 300mm, in particular at least 400 mm, in particular at least 500 mm, in particular at least 600 mm, in particular at least 700 mm in each case. In FIG. 1, the first material section 8a is considerably longer than the second material section 8b, i.e. theextension of the first hip belt section 10a in the unfolded state in the transverse direction 14 beyond the longitudinal edge 16 of the main part 4 is larger by preferably 100 mm, preferably 200 mm, and preferentially 300 mm than that of the second hipbelt section 10b.
The first and second material sections may also have the same length.
A closure element 26 is also provided at the end of the second hip belt section 10b, having the shape of a shackle 26 with mechanical closure elements, which may cooperate in a detachable adhesive fashion with counter closure elements on thefirst hip belt section 10a, in particular with its total outer surface, when the hip belt 10 is closed to form a hip opening which is closed in the peripheral hip direction. The outer side of the hip belt advantageously comprises an inventiveloop-forming nonwoven material which forms the counter closure elements. This loop-forming nonwoven material is schematically indicated with reference numeral 28 only over a limited length of the first hip belt section. In accordance with a preferredembodiment of the invention, the hip belt consists of this nonwoven material 28, such that the loop-forming component of the nonwoven material forms the overall outer side of the hip belt.
For applying the belt diaper 2, the hip belt 10 is closed on top of itself and the main part 4 is subsequently pulled from between the legs of a user and detachably fixed via further shackles 29, comprising mechanical closure elements, on bothsides of the main part 4 on the hip belt 10.
The nonwoven material 28 consists of a nonwoven laminate 30 which is schematically shown in the sectional view of FIG. 2. The section thereby extends along a line B-B shown in FIG. 3a. It has a polypropylene spunbonded layer 32 consisting offibers of a fiber thickness of 2.2 dtex with a surface density of 30 g/m2 as a carrier, which is presolidified by oval bonding points 34 of a surface density of 48.37 points/cm2 (thermal embossing points), wherein the dimensions of thesemi-axes of the oval bonding points are 0.85 mm and 0.59 mm in each case, and the pressing surface of the oval bonding points is accordingly 0.394 mm2 and the portion of the bonding points of the overall surface is thus 19.0%. The depth of thebonding points is 0.80 mm. A card web layer 36 is joined to this spunbonded layer 32 through hot calendar embossing. In the illustrated case, the card web consists of hydrophilized polypropylene fibers of a thickness of 4.4 dtex and a fiber length of40 mm. FIG. 3 shows a view of the "unwound" surface of a calendaring roller which corresponds to an embossing pattern 38 disposed onto the first upper side 40 of the card web layer 36 through hot calendaring. FIG. 3 also schematically shows a view ofthe first upper side 40 of the nonwoven laminate 30.
First larger nonbonded areas 42 are formed on the first upper side 40 of the nonwoven laminate 30 through applying an embossing pattern 38, which are limited by a thermally bonded contour 44 of interrupted first segments 46. In the present case,these first segments 46 have a regular trilobal shape when viewed from above. The arms 461 of these first segments 46 have a length L1 of 1.04 mm and a width B1 of 0.47 mm. The limited first nonbonded areas are hexagonal and are disposed at mutualseparations like islands on the first upper side 40. Second nonbonded areas 48 are located between the first areas 42, which are smaller than the first nonbonded areas 42. These second nonbonded areas, in turn, surround bonded partial areas 50 whichare formed like bars by second segments 47. These second segments 47 have a length L2 of 2.07 mm and a width B2 of 0.47 mm. The embossing depth of the first and second segments is 0.59 mm in each case. In the shown example, the sides of the hexagon ofthe first non-bonded island-type areas have dimensions SF of 2.9 mm. Their separation is approximately 2.6 mm.
In particular, it is not possible to dispose a maximum size circle 52 inscribed in the first larger areas 42, having a diameter of 4.8 mm in the present case, within the second, non-bonded smaller areas 48. The maximum size circles 54 areindicated therein.
The pattern repeat (RB) of the embossing pattern 38 is 8 mm, the pattern repeat length RL is 13.86 mm.
The overall surface portion of bonded areas 44, 50 is 20.7%. The surface portion of the first larger nonbonded island-type areas (42) is approximately 35.7%, wherein the size of the surface of the inscribed circle 52 is used to determine thesurface of a first nonbonded island-type area.
The shearing force determined in accordance with the above-described test method of this nonwoven material is 51.00 N/25 mm, wherein the material "Microplast" 42-288-HX200-PP3 by the company G. Binder GmbH & Co. KG Textil- und Kunststofftechnik,Holzgerlingen, was used as the Velcro hook component.
The rigidity of the nonwoven material determined in accordance with the test method disclosed in EP0699066B1 is 0.13 N, wherein in the test arrangement the spunbonded side is at the top, i.e. forms the surface which faces the punch of the testapparatus.
In a further embodiment of the present invention, only the surface density of the spunbonded material was increased to 45 g/m2 and the embossing pattern 38 connecting the nonwoven materials was modified:
Length L1 of the arms 461 of the first segments 46: 1.0 mm
Width B1 of the arms 461 of the first segments 46: 0.4 mm
Length L2 of the second segments: 47: 2.0 mm
Width B2 of the second segments 47: 0.4 mm
Surface portion of bonded areas: 17.1%
Embossing depth of the first and second segments: 0.68 mm
The shearing force determined in accordance with the above-described test method of this further embodiment is 58.89 N/25 mm, wherein the material "Microplast" 42-288-HX200-PP3 by the company G. Binder GmbH & Co. KG Textil- undKunststofftechnik, Holzgerlingen, was used again as the Velcro hook component.
The rigidity of this further nonwoven material determined in accordance with the test method disclosed in EP0699066B1 is 0.28 N, wherein, in the test arrangement, the spunbonded side is at the top, i.e. forms the surface which faces the punch ofthe test apparatus.
Each straight connecting line 56 between neighboring first larger areas 42 extends always through a bonded contour 44 or a bonded partial area 50 which is disposed between the first larger areas 42.
FIGS. 3a and 3b show preferred and exemplary dimensions of the embossing structure 38, wherein FIG. 3b shows a section along line A-A through a second segment 56.

This is a super nice, fun and simple game. I enjoy it immensely. I thought it was very easy to understand and that made it just that much better.

I didn’t understand what I was supposed to do. Sometimes I would repeat the level like 3 times, and sometimes I wouldn’t even finish the level and move on. It looked and sounded nice, the controls were solid.
I enjoyed this a lot. I’m a music person, so that’s what I notice immediately and it was quite nice. I also thought the mechanics were simple enough, but the challenge was the right amount to keep it from being boring. solid, solid game.
I like that you call it hot garbage lol! Only real feedback I have is this:
- Visuals are actually really cool for a futuristic racer.
- The fuel could actually disappear or destroy when collecting after giving you the bonus.
- The actual bonus could be bigger, lol. I didn’t miss a single one and still died eventually.
- Mix up the drop timing.
- An interesting thing you could do is to have those mountains in the bg actually be level hazards. and if you could swing it, adding in curves like the old snes mario kart.
- The way you can avoid having to tell people you made the game in a day, is to call it a prototype. I’m not sure why, it’s just a psychological thing, but we expect prototypes to be broken. lol.
Otherwise it’s been a good experience. maybe you could make it a mobile game.
Overall pretty solid platformer, perhaps a few tweaks on the momentum however, I kept sliding off of things, and then when anticipating sliding off of things, falling on the close side instead. Sound and feedback were good. You can get softlocked in level 2, and I accidentally found a bug I couldn’t replicate in level 1.
Concept is great. Dimension hopping is a super idea, the execution of it with the control scheme is the only problem. There’s not enough time or enough telegraphing of where you’ll be. Perhaps if you’re highlighting the next color, you could have those show up as a semi transparent image.
there were only 3 right? I think the best one was the ‘kingdom hearts/final fantasy rpg’ sounding one that plays while you’re getting the milk, especially because it has the silly meow like synth but still sounds like oh snap this is a boss.
You asked me about the audio. I think it gives a sort of unsettling vibe, considering the bad guy will come if you don’t collect all the milk, it’s doing it’s job. The thing I’d recommend is simply making what you think sounds good, and then looking to make that as good as possible. When I do music, and even when I did the song for my game, I make it. then I look at it to see what’s not right, just like with code, and after I make the changes it normally sounds better. In the case with FlusterCluck! I made that music over the course of an entire workday, and still ended up adding more and taking things out the next day.
I liked it, the only issue I had was when there’s only one letter left, unless you get lucky in anticipating where the letter will appear, you could be stuck chasing it for a long time. I enjoyed the word game aspect, the grid style movement my game has that too! and the audio fit the game perfectly. Please consider checking out FlusterCluck!

Education Minister Shafqat Mehmood shared important details about the single national curriculum a few days ago, stating that it will improve educational standards for Pakistanis across the country irrespective of their socio-economic class.
The minister was speaking on the Dawn News show "News W!se" where he answered questions about the government's single national curriculum, lamenting how an elite class was benefiting from better educational facilities as compared to students of madressahs and public schools who could not avail equal opportunities.
Shafqat Mehmood said that the single national curriculum will improve educational standards across the country, adding that it will eliminate individualism and will aim to bring about equality in the sense that madressah students and students of elite schools and colleges will enjoy the same facilities.
"First of all, our syllabus can be compared with that of any other syllabus around the world," he said. "We have prepared it keeping in mind modern standards [of education]," added Shafqat Mehmood.
He lamented how a "certain class" in the country thought that only Cambridge and Oxford knew what educational standards were and how they can be perfected.
"This is only the thinking of a particular class here," he said. "So, the standards [education in Pakistan] will rise," added the minister.
When prodded to explain how education standards courtesy the new syllabus will improve, Shafqat said that teachers' training will improve and distance learning will be improved.
"The kids studying in madressahs and those studying in elite schools will have the same educational standards," he said. "And those standards will be higher, not lower."
Earlier, Mehmood had said that the single national curriculum will be implemented across the country from August 2021.
The education ministry had said that under the directives of Federal the Minister for Education and Professional Training Shafqat Mehmood, the new year "would start now in August 2021 due to extension in examination dates to be held in May/June and also prolonged school closures in the academic year of 2020".

Last year I managed a rare trip to a gallery (a snatched moment between lockdowns!) primarily to see the fabulous Pansy – Roy Efrat and Catrin Webster’s collaborative exhibition in the Glynn Vivian Gallery, Swansea. While there I was chuffed to spot an old piece of mine displayed in the Swansea Collection gallery.
This is a very old piece and very different from my more recent work. So much so that I have been pondering these differences in order to find the parallels and convergences as well as the more obvious divergences. The linkages are largely based on balance and tension. This early form, above, is finely balanced, a vessel poised to the point of creating tension through a sense of its precariousness. The geometry of the fine lines of inlaid stained clay reiterating that sense of a poised moment in time.
In contrast this more recent piece, made during my Masters course at UWTSD Swansea College of Art, eschews the clean lines of form and surface pattern and texture. It is no longer even a vessel, a container, in the traditional sense. But still there is that same wrestling with balance and tension, only now that poise is gone; the piece is actually beginning to tip and is in fact balancing, precariously, on warped and layered clay walls. The surface pattern and texture, created by imprinting the clay with plastic mesh, contains areas where the mesh is bunching up and areas of space where the mesh is stretched or torn echoing the warped and torn clay walls.
Back in October 2017 the MA began with a series of interconnected projects, the most significant being the Thought Experiment. We were each given an envelope at random containing a word or phrase followed by a short brief – the idea being we produced a presentation – video or performance – lasting exactly 6 minutes 40 seconds based upon this word or phrase. Mine was Return to your room after a journey.
My thoughts moved back in time to my childhood and tracing my index finger through the furrows of an old candlewick bedspread. I’ve always suffered with insomnia from infancy and this was something comforting I would do when I couldn’t sleep. I would trace a small journey from home to school for example, or to my grandparent’s home or a friend’s house perhaps. My finger making a path through the furrows of wicks, sometimes pulling a thread or two from the candlewick to create an opening, allowing me to cross a road or turn a corner in my journey.
I spent some time trying to arrive at a way of producing a presentation using a candlewick bedspread but struggled to find a way I felt comfortable with lasting 6 minutes 40 seconds. I went back to the brief and thought about how a room could be exactly the same yet not the same over time and arrived very quickly at spiders and their webs. At the same time thoughts of spiders spinning webs led quickly to stories, myths of Ariadne’s thread – a link back to my candlewick journeys – and how stories accumulate while travelling.
Coincidentally my daughter was teaching herself to spin wool; initially drop spindle spinning that resembles spiders dropping on their threads, and then on a spinning wheel. This is remarkably hypnotic to watch – calming and meditative, playing tricks with the passage of time – creating a sense of time slowing and a gathering, processing of memories, stories, anecdotes.
It’s been a very long time since I wrote a blog post! In autumn 2017 I began an MA in Fine Art – Contemporary Dialogues at UWTSD Swansea. I wanted to do this particular course as I liked the crossover and openness between different practices.
This will be the start of some updates and as usual I’m doing things out of sync by starting with my final show before going back to the beginning, more or less, of the journey of the MA.
Most of my work has been based on time – both linear and cyclical, chance, narrative and materiality. My final show From Path to Poultice comprised an installation of raw clay, logs of wood and other natural materials and a video piece that was made over the space of a year. Path was a repetitive journey along the garden path to record the changes in smashed clay over a period of a year or more. The repetitive nature of the work became ritual and as time went on I made more ritualistic pieces such as Poultice in response to this.


On January 6, 2023, the United States Department of Defense announced a new military aid package for Ukraine, and for the first time, the U.S. will provide the Ukrainian army with 18 M109 Paladin 155mm tracked self-propelled howitzers.
Citing information from Laura Cooper, deputy assistant secretary of defense for Russia, Ukraine and Eurasia, artillery remains a crucial capability for the Ukrainians and the PDA (Presidential Drawdown Authority) will provide 18 self-propelled 155 mm Paladin howitzers, 36 105 mm towed howitzers, and thousands of rounds to supply both systems.
Other countries have already supplied Ukraine with M109 155mm self-propelled howitzers including Latvia which has donated six M109 howitzers, Norway with 23 M109A3G, and the UK with 20 Ex-Belgian M109A4
The M109A6 Paladin is an American-made 155mm self-propelled howitzer which is an improved version of the previous version of the M109 howitzer. The development of the M109A6 started in 1985. The US Army made a production decision for the M109A6 on 5 September 1990, with the first Low-Rate Initial Production (LRIP) options being awarded in September 1990 for 44 vehicles. The first production of M109A6 systems was completed in April 1992 and entered into service with the U.S. Army in 1999.
The design of the M109A6 is similar to the previous version of the M109 with the driver seated at the front left side of the hull with the power pack on its right and the turret at the rear. The artillery vehicle has a crew of 4, consisting of the commander, gunner, ammunition loader, and driver. The hull and the turret are made of all-welded aluminum armor, but the M109A6 is fitted with a new turret with improved armor and Kevlar ballistic lining.
The M109A6 Paladin is armed with one 155mm 39 caliber M284 cannon fitted with an M185 gun mount which has many improvements including a reinforced muzzle brake, advanced bore evacuator, a redesigned chamber and forcing cone, two shallow grooves for torque key replacing one deep groove, a new breech housing assembly, wiring of fasteners, added M49 firing mechanism and improved firing block, improved crank lead springs, strengthened breech handle springs and modified plunger, modification of the breech ring and longer ordnance.
The 155mm gun of the M109A6 Paladin has a maximum firing range of 24 km with standard artillery ammunition and 30 km with using assisted rounds. The vehicle carries a total of 39 rounds. It can also fire Excalibur GPS-guided artillery ammunition with a maximum firing range of 40 km.
The M109A6 Paladin vehicle is powered by a DDEC 8V71T two-cycle diesel engine developing 440 hp at 2,300 rpm manufactured by Detroit Diesel Corporation coupled to an Allison ATD-XTG-411-4 transmission with four forward and two reverse gears. The torsion bar suspension on either side consists of seven dual rubber-tired road wheels with the drive sprocket at the front and the idler at the rear. It can run at a maximum road speed of 64 km/h with a maximum cruising range of 344 km.

Who would have thought, that a simple board with a paddle can supply so much enjoyment. All you do is stand there, keep your balance, look around and paddle in your own tempo. Sailing on an SUP is easy, it is a sport viable for everyone – of course as long as there are no significant waves. All you need to do is sustain an upright position, keep your balance with slightly bent knees and hold the paddle appropriately. You can start the training by sitting down – slow drifting on the board is very enjoyable too. An important thing is that, no matter what you are planning on doing, the board has to be connected to your foot with a special leash equipped with a Velcro strap, which is to be chained around your ankle. This is because, during a fall, the board has the potential to sail very far away.
It is difficult to say, where the activity originates from. Surfboards, canoes and even rafts propelled by a paddle have been used for a long time – also in Hawaii, where surfing was born. In the Hawaiian language, a board meant to be stood on top of is called Hoe he’e nalu. In 1778, British captain James Cook was the first one to observe locals surf on such a board. In 1930, King Thomas Edward Blake crafted a replica an ancient Hon he’e nalu used by multiple Hawaiian kings. In 1940, two surfing instructors from Waikiki, namely Duke Kahanamoku and Leroy Bobby AhChoy, managed to stand up on their boards and use a paddle for the first time. The now so-called Beach Boy Surfing was born out of the need of greater control and enabling observation of students scattered in the water. With time, men started surfing with the use of a paddle to redirect the board more easily.
The mix of a surfing board with a canoe achieved grand popularity a couple of years ago – now, SUP races take place all over the world. Unlike surfing, paddle boarding does not require a long learning process or great abilities. Everyone can try and, within a few hours, be able to control the board without any mishaps. Trouble only starts when waves arise – in those situations, keeping your balance needs a much greater effort.

This information is important to us. The colon is a very important organ in the digestive system. Its job is to take the water, salt, vitamins, and nutrients out of food that cannot be digested, break down food that was not digested in the small intestine, and remove solid waste from the body.
But when the colon doesn’t work properly, it takes in toxins, instead of removing them, causing problems like headaches, bloating, constipation, gas, weight gain, low energy, fatigue and chronic illnesses.
These problems can also be caused by foods that weren’t digested – most foods that we eat today are full of additives, preservatives, and other chemicals. That leads to a buildup of mucus in the colon, creating toxins that poison the body.
But with the help of the colon cleaning, you can get rid of bad toxins, and boost healthy bacteria in the intestines. It will also give you energy and help the body take in vitamins and nutrients.
There are many treatments available for cleaning the colon. But for a lot of people, the best options are simple, natural cures. Before starting any colon cleansing treatment, ask your doctor for instructions, especially if you are taking any medications or suffering from any health condition.
Let me share with you 9 home remedies for natural colon cleansing

The Secrets of Medical Decision Making: How to Avoid Becoming a Victim of the Health Care Machine - Price: $18.95
by Oleg I. Reznik, ISBN: 978-1-932690-17-0
Click Here to Purchase/Contact
We are all patients at some time. Is the medical industry giving us the best treatment possible, at the best price? It isn’t. This book covers all the health care settings a reader may encounter: outpatient, inpatient, preventive, and end-of-life care setting.
Including personal stories of patients, it introduces a concept of a Medical Box—forces having a stronger hold on most physicians than the heavy chains of prison shackles. Four corners of the Medical Box are:
Fear of litigation
Financial and time pressure
Guidelines of Health Care authorities
The current Medical Model
The most important theme is empowering prospective patients to use their own common sense and trust their own judgment in making medical decisions about their medical care.
[ Rate Book ]
[ Report Listing ]
Oleg I. Reznik is a board certified family physician with holistic approach, in private practice in Sellwood area of Portland. From 2006 to 2009, he worked for OHSU department of Family Medicine and was promoted from Clinical Instructor to Assistant Professor. At his private office, he sees adults and children, uses mental imagery and other techniques of mind-body medicine to treat physical, emotional, and mental illness and treat addictions. He tries to minimize patients' reliance on medications, while encouraging personal transformation and healthy activities.
A vital part of his education was his nine-year apprenticeship with a teacher of mind-body integrative medicine, Madame Colette Aboulker-Muscat (1909-2003). Colette practiced mind-body integrative medicine for seventy years. She was a master of mental techniques that can effect profound changes in the mind and body. It is with her that Reznik witnessed and learned how to facilitate profound changes in the mind and body through the use of creative imagination.
He was certified by The American Institute for Mental Imagery (a post-graduate training center in New York City, which teaches this method) in Imagination, Mental Imagery, and Phenomenology.
Book Review :
If you want to know why doctors make some of the recommendations they do, then here is the book for you. Speaking as both a physician and a patient, Reznik helps us to understand what motivates our physicians and why they often say the things they do. "The Secrets of Medical Decision Making" is a book we can all benefit from reading because we all need health care at some time, or we are put in the situation of needing to make medical decisions for another. Oleg I. Reznik, M.D. has a goal of making us conscious and informed in the medical decisions we must make; by doing so we could have a much better health care system than we currently have.
I found the information on several different medical tests to be quite informative. We are given some questions to think about before agreeing to a test and the reasons why doctors prescribe the tests to begin with. Reznik speaks at length about prostate screening and the treatment of prostate cancer, mammograms, and how the statistics on cancer survival have progressed. All the information he presents is quite interesting and worth one's time to read in order to be a more informed individual.
Everyone may not find all the information presented by Reznik to be relevant, but we can all benefit from the ideas presented. I personally will feel less intimidated the next time I ask, "Why?" when the doctor recommends something I am not sure about. Take charge of your health and do what is best for YOU. Reading this book is well worth anyone's time who wants to be an informed patient.
