Are British civilians employed by the MoD in Cyprus protected by the Equality Act? (Holloway & Ors v Ministry of Defence)
A group of British civilians working on a military base in Cyprus brought claims of discrimination against the Ministry of Defence (MoD). Before considering their claim, the Employment Tribunal had to decide whether GB equality laws applied to this group of workers. The first Employment Tribunal found that the Equality Act did apply to them. However, the MoD successfully challenged this in the Employment Appeal Tribunal. This meant that the case was remitted to the ET to be reconsidered.
A group of Irish Travellers were refused service in a pub because of their race. We supported them to bring a successful claim for race discrimination.
Hillingdon Council’s housing rules said that a person must have lived in the area for at least ten years before they could apply for a house. The council refused two people, a refugee who had been given permission to stay in the UK and an Irish Traveller, on these grounds. We saw this as discriminatory and we intervened in their cases in the Administrative Court and the Court of Appeal.
A woman who came to the UK as a migrant domestic worker was abused and exploited by her employer. She successfully brought several claims against the employer, but her claim for race discrimination did not succeed. We supported her to challenge this in the Supreme Court.
Challenging the two-child limit on the basis of discrimination (R ( SC & Ors) v Secretary of State for Work and Pensions)
Tax credits are designed to help with the cost of bringing up a family; but families can only claim credits for the first two children. The claimant in this case is a mother of three children, she cannot take the contraceptive pill because it interferes with other medication she takes and she does not agree with abortion. We believe that the two-child limit discriminates against families like this claimant, so we intervened in her case.
Preventing estate agents using ‘No DSS’ policies to discriminate against renters (J v X Estate Agents)
A female disabled renter successfully challenged an estate agent’s ‘No DSS’ policy on grounds it indirectly discriminated against her because of her sex and disability. Women and disabled people are more likely to be in receipt of housing benefit than men and non-disabled people, and as a result of the policy, blocked from renting many properties.
We funded a case challenging the Secretary of State for Justice’s decision to make PAVA spray available in prisons during the coronavirus pandemic, before agreed safeguards were in place. As a result of the action, the use of PAVA will be more tightly controlled and monitored. This should help prevent disproportionate use against prisoners sharing particular protected characteristics and improve scrutiny and accountability.
DWP signs legally binding agreement to improve equality and diversity in the workplace (Department for Work and Pensions section 23 agreement)
The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) entered a legally binding agreement with us after a former DWP employee won her claim of direct discrimination on the basis of age and race, racial harassment and victimisation.
A woman with afro hair was told by her employer that she had to wear her hair straightened and tied back. We challenged the policy to clarify if the employer’s policy was discriminatory against black women, which ended in a successful settlement for the claimant.
Britannia Jinky Jersey Limited, owner of Pontins, signed a legally binding agreement with us to prevent racial discrimination after we became aware of discriminatory practices, including an ‘undesirable guest list’, being used by the organisation.

All new buildings could have to install EV chargers in their carparks under proposed laws, Singapore News
AsiaOne has launched EarthOne, a new segment committed to environmental concerns — since we enjoy the earth and we think science. Find posts like this there.
SINGAPORE – All new buildings with carparks will have to install electric auto (EV) charging points in at the very least 1 for every cent of their total auto and motorbike parking tons in upcoming, beneath proposed legislation to control EV charging in Singapore.
In addition, the developments have to give ample electrical load to help EV charging with 7.4 kilowatt chargers for 15 for each cent of the whole parking spaces.
In addition to new buildings, the specifications would also include developments that raise their gross floor place by 50 per cent or extra, and those that improve their accepted electrical load to 280 kilovolt-ampere (kVa) or more.
This proposal is in draft legislation to govern EV charging that the Ministry of Transportation and Land Transportation Authority (LTA) set out on Wednesday (June 15) for general public consultation.
The proposed Electric powered Auto Charging Monthly bill would vest LTA with powers to control EV chargers utilised in Singapore, impose a licensing regime on EV charging operators, and need EV chargers to be provided in buildings.
“We see a sturdy impetus to introduce laws to regulate EV charging throughout the vital stakeholders in the EV charging field, whilst the business and EV adoption in Singapore are even now nascent,” said the authorities.
To make it less complicated for EV charging to be installed in current strata-titled developments like condominiums, the Authorities is also seeking at amending rules to reduce the threshold for this kind of resolutions to be handed.
Below the Setting up Upkeep and Strata Administration Act, a proposal to install EV chargers presently demands assistance from up to 90 for each cent of inhabitants, based on aspects these as the proposed ownership of the chargers and size of lease.
The reduced threshold would utilize to contracts that final for up to 10 many years and to proposals that do not draw down on condo management resources, mentioned LTA, noting that residents in some condos have not managed to move resolutions to set up EV charging factors, even when a the greater part of people guidance the transfer.
Also incorporated in the proposed laws are rules to appoint LTA as the EV charging regulator, to make certain charging products and services in Singapore meet up with protection expectations. LTA will control the supply, ad, set up, registration, use and routine maintenance of EV chargers.
The rules will go over EV chargers that are plugged into the energy grid, cell chargers as perfectly as battery demand and swap stations, which charge batteries belonging to an EV.
All EV chargers will have to have to be registered with LTA in just a “acceptable time frame” soon after they have been installed, reported LTA, without having elaborating. Relying on the type of chargers, this could have to be completed before they can be used.
Owners of current EV chargers will be necessary to sign up them with LTA within 12 months.
LTA claimed registration will allow it to “thoroughly assign accountability and liability” on EV charger proprietors, as nicely as give it a greater overview of the total EV charging infrastructure. This would allow it to determine areas with insufficient charging points, it added.
EV chargers will also have to be inspected periodically by an products specialist — every 6 months for public places, with a annually check out by a accredited electrical worker. Spots with restricted accessibility like landed homes have to be inspected by an devices specialist just about every two a long time.
Meanwhile, charging of removable EV batteries will not be authorized in properties thanks to safety hazards like battery fires, said the LTA. Businesses that wish to function their own chargers for removable batteries will be able to operate with LTA to get their premises accredited for charging.
In addition, the proposed legislation would let LTA to enter premises in “pretty really serious instances of harmful functions relating to chargers”, this kind of as the use of tampered or illegally modified chargers, individuals with serious manufacturing flaws or these that are not installed correctly.
LTA mentioned it would challenge a “protection directive” to an proprietor to promptly handle the possibility by uninstalling or rectifying the charger. But if this is not accomplished, the authority would be capable to enter the premises to do so.
All EV charging operators will be accredited as well less than the proposed principles, and have to meet up with reliability and good quality standards.
The authorities also approach to put in spot safeguards towards prolonged, significant-scale disruption of charging services. In these kinds of an function, LTA will have the powers to consider in excess of the affected charging operator’s assets and functions, or appoint another operator to stage in.
EVOne Charging’s managing director, Mr Elson Toh, thinks rental dwellers are keener than those people in any other housing kinds to switch to EVs.
His corporation has been getting more requests for proposals by condominium residents in the past yr, but they almost never get the needed votes at resident committee conferences. He sees the opportunity for EV adoption to definitely take off with the proposed alter.
QuickCharge.sg has put in over 100 EV chargers in professional web sites and landed households given that the middle of final 12 months. Its spokesman reported the business welcomed the proposed need to sign-up EV chargers as it will give people self confidence that the chargers comply with basic safety expectations.
The general public consultation will very last till July 14 this calendar year.
Responses to the proposed laws can be despatched to [email protected] with the issue “Public Session for the Electrical Vehicle Charging Monthly bill”.

Patients on a polyamine-deficient diet before and after spinal surgery experienced significant relief from both chronic and acute pain, reveals a study presented at the ANESTHESIOLOGY 2013 annual meeting. Polyamines are molecules that come from the amino acid metabolism and the urea cycle, a series of biochemical reactions that occur primarily in the liver and, to a lesser extent, the kidneys. Animals and plants receive polyamines through food. All cell growth requires polyamines and they are critical to the healthy function of the nervous system. Recently, however, it has been demonstrated that a polyamine-deficient diet relieves cancer pain and non-malignant chronic pain.
"This study looked to investigate whether a polyamine-deficient diet could relieve perioperative pain, including chronic pain before surgery and acute pain after surgery, " said Jean-Pierre Estebe, M.D., Ph.D., Department of Anesthesiology, University of Rennes, France. "Reducing post-operative pain has significant benefits for the patient because it is usually a major reason for longer hospital stays and recovery."
In this prospective, randomized and blinded study, 64 lumbar spine surgery patients were divided into two groups. The first group followed a diet of six Nutrialys drinks (Polydol manufactured with a low polyamine content) in various flavors, plus a European breakfast without fruit for seven days before surgery and five days after; the second group followed a diet of two Nutrialys drinks, plus a normal diet. Results were evaluated using a numerical pain-rating scale at rest and at motion as well as quality of life questionnaires.
Patients in the first group had decreased pain at rest before surgery, which became significant after surgery. This decrease of pain was also reported for pain at motion. Pain relief was more significant in patients with the most intense pain. Finally, patients in the first group had improved quality of life before and after surgery.
"Polyamine-deficient diets seem to be effective as a pain relief treatment for both chronic and acute pain," explained Dr. Estebe. "Of course, more studies with patients using the diet for longer periods of time need to be conducted to assess its usefulness long-term. However, with a good tolerance and compliance, polyamine-deficient diets are a new, safer technique for improving the management of pain in combination with the analgesic drugs classically used in humans. Functional foods, defined as food that may provide health benefit beyond traditional nutrition, is a new, promising therapeutic option."

Arsenal’s Mesut Ozil gets destroyed on Twitter after another poor performance v Bayern Munich
Mesut Ozil has failed to truly impress at Arsenal this season, following his record breaking £42m move from Real Madrid.
The German star was once again poor in Arsenal’s 2-0 Champions League home defeat to Bayern Munich.
The attacking midfielder missed a penalty early on before looking uninterested for the rest of the game.
Twitter was not very sympathetic towards Mesut Ozil.

The Black Power Mixtape 1967-1975 (2011) dir.Göran Olsson
“This whole, kind of, falling in love with black things for a short period of time is essentially racist. It still is hypothesized on a great sense of separateness and a sense of treating black activities as a kind of curiosity; either benign or threatening, one or the other. When it’s threatening, ‘Oh my god, they’re going to riot or something’. And if it’s benign, ‘Let’s let them paint or draw or sing or dance, whatever they want to do. Until we, the white community, get tired of it’ and that whole structure, is essentially racist.”
"180 Canvases is a site specific installation designed to fill the space of Arrow Factory gallery in JianChang Hutong, Beijing. Arrow Factory is a 15 m² independently run alternative art space founded by artists Rania Ho and Wang Wei, which occupies a former vegetable stand and which is now hosting exhibitions on a monthly base. We played with the original concept of the space, a shop-like show window facing the hutong lane, inserting an element of surprise to catch attention of passing-by viewers. The contrast of a colourful Wunderkammer featuring 180 canvases painted by hand strikes with the grey colour of surrounding walls, bringing some reminder to local tradition of chinese colourful paper cutting and the common habit of people to hang up wires on which they put clothes to dry on the public lanes."
The installation is part of Instant Hutong’s pursuit of “Theory of Moments,” a research project that investigates undefined, “abandoned or under-used spaces in downtown Beijing.” The end turns flat, colored canvases into a a stunning rainbow lattice:

In a recent Supreme Court decision, Ward CJ has made an order for further provision to an adult daughter of the deceased who had been estranged from her father for many years. The daughter claimed the reason for the estrangement was due to her father and deceased older brothers engaging in sexual abuse of her when she was a child.
Under the will, the deceased had divided his estate in half – one half was going to his surviving son; and the remaining half was to be divided between 19 different beneficiaries which included both his surviving children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. In practical terms, the son was receiving 20/38 share of the Estate, and the daughter 1/38.
Cause for estrangement
The reason for estrangement was an issue of contention. Her brother (also executor of the Estate), denied any allegation of child sexual abuse and claimed the reason for the estrangement was more to the fact that she sold a property for a significant capital gain, that her parents had sold her at a reduced rate in order to assist her.
The Court held that a family provision claim is not an appropriate forum to raise allegations of child sexual abuse, and whilst they may explain the estrangement on the part of the plaintiff, such allegations can do no more than that. A claim for family provision should not be seen as a substitute to compensation for the deceased parent having failed in their legal or moral duty or obligation to be a good and responsible parent of the child.
The daughter was also estranged from her own daughter, who sometime after probate had been obtained “discovered” a partial handwritten letter of the deceased dated sometime in 2003 that appeared to set out reasons why he had not made greater provision for his daughter. The reasoning set out in the partial letter was centred on the assistance he had given his daughter during his lifetime in selling her the property at an undervalue, which supported the brother’s claim.
The plaintiff daughter had fallen on hard times financially. She was unemployed, with no prospects of future employment, she had no superannuation and was living on a property owned by a friend. She had horses for which the friend permitted her to retain on his property for no charge, however without that generosity, she would have been destitute and unable to afford retaining her horses and accommodation for herself.
There was also some contention as to whether the friend was in fact the daughter’s de facto partner (a relevant consideration only in terms of his particularly financial position). However, whilst Ward CJ was content to find that they were in a domestic relationship, she declined to find a de facto relationship.
Whilst the defendant tried to rely on previous decisions which found that support given to a person during the lifetime of the deceased was relevant and likely to reduce the success of a claim for further provision, her Honour noted that the deceased had also provided significant support to the defendant in his lifetime – namely the provision of accommodation until the death of the deceased. The brother had never left home and was not contributing financially to the property.
In this matter there were other beneficiaries that submitted their financial position to the Court.
Her Honour considered this was a case of the kind referred to in Taylor v Farrugia, where Brereton J said:
“where a child, even an adult child, falls on hard times and where there are assets available, then the community may expect parents to provide a buffer against contingencies; and where a child has been unable to accumulate superannuation or make other provision for their retirement, something to assist in retirement where otherwise they would be left destitute.”
Her Honour made provision for a legacy of $300,000 instead of the approximately $60,000 she was entitled to under the will, to come from the half of the estate for the grandchildren and great grandchildren who had not submitted their financial circumstances to the Court, so the first half of the Estate going to the brother was unaffected.
Lesson to be learned – you still need to make “adequate and proper” provision for a child even though you may be estranged.

Last year around this time I created a pumpkin granola recipe but this year is this year and I do believe in making things better so here it is! I have made a couple of batches to prep for this recent post. I wanted to try using a couple of different nut and seed butters to know which one I personally like better but you will have to judge that for yourself. I made last week’s batch with tahini because I love tahini and the flavour of tahini and pumpkin is just awesome. I made today’s batch with a blend of peanut butter and almond butter and dare I say, I like this one better. Again, you could add WHATEVER butter you’d like as long as you think it will taste great with pumpkin.
I also baked this on CONVECTION. I like how using convec makes everything a little dryer and more crispy, especially when making certain things like granola. I bake it at a relatively low temperature to ensure no burning but keep a close eye still… There are a ton of ingredients in here and it would be a travesty for it to burn.

Can Sickness and Vulnerability Be Good for Your Psyche?
Whenever I’m under the weather, I’m compelled to stay inside and forgo other plans. Some simply employ the “push through it” mentality, but not me. My body is telling me to stop, I’d say. To stop what I’m doing — to rest and slow down.
And in the stillness, in the quiet, my physiological discomfort intensifies my vulnerability (and I’m certainly an emotional and vulnerable individual, in general). I think and overthink. I feel deeply. When there is an unresolved, nagging issue, it will certainly rear its head even more in sickness.
When our bodies undergo physical stress, our mental and emotional states may align accordingly. Sickness can give way to rough thoughts, nitty gritty emotions and unpleasantries. Yet, is that necessarily bad for our psychological well-being?
In Tori Rodriguez’s 2013 article, she explains that as a psychotherapist, she sees many clients who struggle with distressing emotions.
“In recent years, I have noticed an increase in the number of people who also feel guilty or ashamed about what they perceive to be negativity,” she said. “Such reactions undoubtedly stem from our culture’s overriding bias toward positive thinking. Although positive emotions are worth cultivating, problems arise when people start believing they must be upbeat all the time.”
Research supports the notion that anger and sadness are integral to our mental health. Attempting to suppress such feelings ultimately can backfire. “Acknowledging the complexity of life may be an especially fruitful path to psychological well-being,” according to a quote from psychologist Jonathan M. Adler in Rodriguez’s article.
It’s therefore recommended to accept the pain you’re experiencing. “Acknowledge how you are feeling without rushing to change your emotional state,” Rodriguez said. “Many people find it helpful to breathe deeply while learning to tolerate strong feelings or to imagine feelings as floating clouds, as a reminder that they will pass.”
Mindfulness exercises, such as breathing meditations, along with journaling and confiding in a friend, may alleviate stress as well.
“It is okay to be vulnerable,” Madison Sonnier said in her Tiny Buddha post. “Let yourself be angry, hurt, embarrassed or nervous without accusing yourself of being stupid and irrational. Your feelings belong to you and it is okay to let yourself feel them and get them out and deal with them. It takes time to heal. If you’re going through a hard time, do not try to force yourself through to the other side of it or convince yourself that you’re fine when you’re really not.”
At times, vulnerability can be daunting; you’re susceptible to emotional pain and unfavorable thoughts. In sickness, when you’re already feeling out of sorts, physically, your vulnerability may heighten. It may shine a light on all that’s raw, unresolved or difficult.
However, maybe staying present and mindful and truly experiencing all that’s adverse is fundamentally beneficial to your psychological well-being. Once you grant yourself permission to feel how you feel, without judgment, you’re on the road to healing what needs to be healed.

In a state known for its spectacular sand dunes the Sleeping Bear Dunes shoreline stands head and shoulders above the others. The national lakeshore is best known for its spectacular perched dunes—sand dunes that formed at the top of a bluff—that tower 450 feet above Lake Michigan. People young and old—mostly young—like to run down the steep drop-off at Lake Michigan Overlook into the water below. Getting down the embankment is easy. Getting back up can take hours, is will test your endurance. We don’t recommend it.
Entry into the Sleeping Bear Dunes is via Pierce Stocking Scenic Drive, a paved route that twists and turns through tunnels of hardwood. Scenic pull-offs offer opportunities to get out and shoot spectacular dune vistas from above the trees. The best two are called Dune Overlook and Lake Michigan Overlook. This lovely dune drive is worth the price of park admission.
Other popular activities at the Sleeping Bear Dunes include hiking trails, from the flat, Good Harbor Bay Trail to Sleeping Bear Point Trail, a strenuous 3-mile hike over dunes out to a Lake Michigan overlook. Several campgrounds dot the park as do half a dozen beautiful swimming beaches.
Although the Sleeping Bear Dunes are most popular in summer, they’re also beautiful in winter. Cold-weather visitors can cross-country ski certain trails, ice fish the inland lakes and snowshoe anywhere in the park.

Restricted stock will be the main mechanism by which a founding team will make sure that its members earn their sweat collateral. Being fundamental to startups, it is worth understanding. Let’s see what it has been.
Restricted stock is stock that is owned but can be forfeited if a founder leaves a home based business before it has vested.
The startup will typically grant such stock to a founder and secure the right to purchase it back at cost if the service relationship between vehicle and the Co Founder IP Assignement Ageement India should end. This arrangement can use whether the founder is an employee or contractor with regards to services achieved.
With a typical restricted stock grant, if a founder pays $.001 per share for restricted stock, the company can buy it back at $.001 per share.
But not a lot of time.
The buy-back right lapses progressively over time.
For example, Founder A is granted 1 million shares of restricted stock at rrr.001 per share, or $1,000 total, with the startup retaining a buy-back right at $.001 per share that lapses in order to 1/48th belonging to the shares hoaxes . month of Founder A’s service stint. The buy-back right initially is valid for 100% of the shares stated in the provide. If Founder A ceased discussing the startup the next day of getting the grant, the startup could buy all of the stock to $.001 per share, or $1,000 top notch. After one month of service by Founder A, the buy-back right would lapse as to 1/48th for the shares (i.e., as to 20,833 shares). If Founder A left at that time, the actual could buy back just about the 20,833 vested digs. And so lets start work on each month of service tenure before 1 million shares are fully vested at the conclusion of 48 months and services information.
In technical legal terms, this isn’t strictly dress yourself in as “vesting.” Technically, the stock is owned but can be forfeited by what’s called a “repurchase option” held from company.
The repurchase option can be triggered by any event that causes the service relationship concerning the founder along with the company to terminate. The founder might be fired. Or quit. Or perhaps forced give up. Or depart this life. Whatever the cause (depending, of course, in the wording among the stock purchase agreement), the startup can normally exercise its option client back any shares which usually unvested as of the date of cancelling technology.
When stock tied a new continuing service relationship may perhaps be forfeited in this manner, an 83(b) election normally has to be filed to avoid adverse tax consequences down the road for your founder.
How Is fixed Stock Include with a Itc?
We in order to using enhancing . “founder” to touch on to the recipient of restricted share. Such stock grants can come in to any person, even if a director. Normally, startups reserve such grants for founders and very key everyday people. Why? Because anyone that gets restricted stock (in contrast to a stock option grant) immediately becomes a shareholder and have all the rights that are of a shareholder. Startups should not too loose about providing people with this popularity.
Restricted stock usually will not make any sense for every solo founder unless a team will shortly be brought .
For a team of founders, though, it could be the rule when it comes to which are usually only occasional exceptions.
Even if founders do not use restricted stock, VCs will impose vesting upon them at first funding, perhaps not as to all their stock but as to several. Investors can’t legally force this on founders but will insist on the griddle as a complaint that to buying into. If founders bypass the VCs, this of course is not an issue.
Restricted stock can be used as to a new founders and still not others. Considerably more no legal rule which says each founder must have the same vesting requirements. It is possible to be granted stock without restrictions any kind of kind (100% vested), another can be granted stock that is, say, 20% immediately vested with the 80% governed by vesting, was in fact on. This is negotiable among founders.
Vesting will never necessarily be over a 4-year duration. It can be 2, 3, 5, or any other number which enable sense to your founders.
The rate of vesting can vary as in reality. It can be monthly, quarterly, annually, or any other increment. Annual vesting for founders is comparatively rare nearly all founders won’t want a one-year delay between vesting points as they build value in the actual. In this sense, restricted stock grants differ significantly from stock option grants, which face longer vesting gaps or initial “cliffs.” But, again, this almost all negotiable and arrangements will be.
Founders likewise attempt to barter acceleration provisions if termination of their service relationship is without cause or if perhaps they resign for acceptable reason. If perform include such clauses his or her documentation, “cause” normally ought to defined to apply to reasonable cases certainly where an founder isn’t performing proper duties. Otherwise, it becomes nearly unattainable to get rid of non-performing founder without running the probability of a personal injury.
All service relationships from a startup context should normally be terminable at will, whether or a no-cause termination triggers a stock acceleration.
VCs typically resist acceleration provisions. When agree in in any form, likely remain in a narrower form than founders would prefer, items example by saying that a founder could get accelerated vesting only should a founder is fired just a stated period after something different of control (“double-trigger” acceleration).
Restricted stock is used by startups organized as corporations. It may possibly be done via “restricted units” in LLC membership context but this is definitely more unusual. The LLC is actually definitely an excellent vehicle for many small company purposes, and also for startups in the right cases, but tends pertaining to being a clumsy vehicle to handle the rights of a founding team that desires to put strings on equity grants. be completed in an LLC but only by injecting into them the very complexity that a lot of people who flock with regard to an LLC seek to avoid. If it is likely to be complex anyway, is certainly normally far better use the business format.
All in all, restricted stock is a valuable tool for startups to utilize in setting up important founder incentives. Founders should of the tool wisely under the guidance of a good business lawyer.

NEW DIE CASTING MACHINES – MAICOPRESSE
The company was founded in 1975 with a view to produce pressure die-casting machines. MAICOPRESSE have always tried to provide advanced solutions, mechanically and technologically improving their machines through good cooperation with its customers, and by seeking solutions in their in-house research and technical development department.
MAICOPRESSE now offers two basic types of machines:
- GK (feed force from 280 tons to 3800 tons)
- GKL (feed force from 350 tons to 2300 tons)
What makes GK and GKL stand out from the competitors is the application of forged steel for an entire structure. The joint head runs on 4 columns; as a result, joint runs on 4 columns as well. This provides more structural rigidity of the machine within time, compared to conventional machines, where the joint runs only on 2 columns.
In addition, machines can be fitted with a range of options. The most essential are:
- Chromium plated and polished columns are made of special stainless steel rods. Threads are made by rolling. When installing large foundry moulds, it is possible to allow for OPTIONAL auto-ejection of one or two upper columns.
- The automatic locking system for all knock-out pistons that reduces mould installation time.
- Nitrogen pressure compensator: nitrogen cylinders are connected directly to piston accumulators and are fitted with a patented automatic system which allows maintaining the set nitrogen pressure value to obtain the optimum working conditions and the repeatability of the cycle. This allows the machine to self-adjust injection pressure in case of a change in working conditions: ambient temperature and the possible loss of nitrogen, without the need for continuous operator control.
- The electric motor of hydraulic pump is completely controlled by the inverter, which by changing the speed of various motions in the machine, can reduce electricity consumption by about 40% to 50%, while maintaining performance and capacity of the machine unchanged. Only energy needed to perform that particular motion is used. For the rest of the cycle, the engine rotates at minimum speed, allowing, under these conditions, to obtain energy loss close to zero.
- With the inverter instead of a water heat exchanger, the machine is fitted with an air heat exchanger that cools the hydraulic agent. As a result, water usually used for that purpose is unnecessary. Consequently, there is no need to use chillers, evaporators, or any other means of cooling. To all the above features we can add greater durability of pumps, coolant and quieter machine operation compared to conventional machines, given that just the necessary amount of fluid is under pressure.
The GKL series machines use a patented closing system, which has a very long ejector die stroke. For machines with closing force, the stroke is 1900 mm and 950 mm for conventional machines. The GKL series machines are ideal for production of deep casts (such as electric motors casings). Obtaining such a long stroke was possible with the use a toggle that opens outside of the closing system.
A new offering from MAICO is the hybrid machine. In addition to all the solutions of GK and GKL series, this machine uses electric mould closing mechanism. This solution allows the elimination of problems

Fontana, Corrosion Engineering, third edition, McGraw-Hill, p. 2 Exchange Current Density and Its Significance During dissolution of metal into the solution, the ionic species are produced and discharged simultaneously at the metallic surface. Since the ions are charged species, the ions that flow constitute two equal and opposite electric currents. Consider, for example, oxidation and reduction of hydrogen. As two electrons are consumed during the reduction of the two hydrogen ions and since two electrons are released during the oxidation of the single hydrogen molecule, the electrochemical reaction rate during oxidation and reduction of hydrogen can be expressed in terms of current density.

Although zinc is more active, it corrodes more slowly than iron does in hydrochloric acid. This is because of the very low exchange current density for the hydrogen evolution reaction on zinc. 44 V. This principle is used in corrosion protection of steel using galvanizing coating as the zinc begins to corrode first in case of damage of coating, if any, and it corrodes much more slowly than the steel (Fontana, 2005).

DeLorean Motor Company will be travelling back from the past on May 31 with the full reveal of an all-new pure-electric concept car, the DeLorean EVolved.
With styling inspired by the original DMC DeLorean (sometimes referred to by its internal designation DMC-12) of the early 1980s, which was catapulted to pop culture fame in the Back to the Future move franchise, the DeLorean EVolved marks the first model in a new range of cars from the company.
The DeLorean EVolved’s unveiling had been scheduled for Pebble Beach, California, in August but the company said it would move the unveiling forward to the end of May following public enthusiasm. It also plans to release further teaser images between now and then, giving clues as to how the overall design will look.
While “inspired by” the DMC-12, the DeLorean EVolved isn’t expected to owe too much to its predecessor beyond a few of the most notable styling cues, such as the gullwing doors and louvred rear window.
Judging by the teaser images, it’s set to be a more curvaceous affair than the wedge-shaped, Belfast-built original.
The new car has been styled by Italdesign, the company founded by Giorgetto Giugiaro, who penned the original DeLorean in the late seventies alongside DMC’s Bill Collins.
Some of the preview images have shown a car finished in silver, though the make-up of the body isn’t known yet, and the new car is unlikely to be clad in the same stainless-steel panels (which allowed for a lack of paint) as the 1980s car.
The latest preview image (top) shows the louvres along with a slim light bar extending across the rear of the car located just above stylised “DeLorean” lettering.
At present, there isn’t whole lot currently known about what’s powering the DeLorean EVolved apart from the fact that it’ll be a modular electric powertrain sourced from Williams Advanced Engineering.
The DMC DeLorean (below) was originally powered by a lacklustre and under-powered V6 engine that struggled to propel the weight of the car’s stainless steel construction. Many joked that reaching 88mph — the speed Marty McFly needed to reach in order to travel through time in Back to the Future — was unfeasible without a very long stretch of road.
There have been several attempts to revive the DeLorean nameplate since John DeLorean’s original company went bankrupt in 1982, taking £78m of UK taxpayer’s money with it. The most successful has been DeLorean Motors Reimagined (which traded as the DeLorean Motor Company), a business founded in 1995 in Texas by Liverpool-born mechanic Stephen Wynne.
Wynne’s DMC acquired the DeLorean trademark as well as much of the old company’s leftover parts inventory enabling the business to start restoring and refurbishing original cars using a mixture of old stock and remanufactured parts.
The company had for many years planned to begin low-volume manufacture of new continuation DeLoreans including, as announced in 2013, an electric version.
However, problems with the Low Volume Motor Vehicle Manufacturer’s Act — a US law that allows smaller car makers to avoid some of the regulatory demands placed on bigger manufacturers — meant that this was not possible. By the time the law had been finalised in 2021, the company now known as Classic DMC had decided to focus on restorations rather than new cars.
The owner of Classic DMC does hold an ownership stake in the new electric car company and acts as an advisor, but has no day-to-day role in the running of the firm, according to a source at Classic DMC.
Meanwhile the new DeLorean Motor Company, also Texas-based, is a wholly new entity that has attracted executives from the EV firm Karma Automotive, and the company hit the public consciousness in February after it placed a TV ad during the Superbowl.
The firm intends to become a “full-line manufacturer”, i.e. one with a proper plant whose primary business is making new cars, with not just sports cars but “volume” models, which many interpreted to mean the line-up will include SUVs.
CEO of the new company, Joost de Vries, has also said that the firm would also reveal a series of designs showing how engineers and stylists believe the original design of the DeLorean would have evolved throughout the 1990s, 2000s and 2010s, so perhaps expect to see something along those lines by the end of May.

What are the advantages/disadvatages for each of these engine styles, and please mention how many cylinders you are thinking of. Also, why can’t a four cylinder engine come as a slant or V formation? Is it because the idle would be too rough, perhaps rough enough to stall the engine?
As an afterthought, please feel free to mention if the advantage is merely asthetics, building costs rather than performance…and please specify if performance mean more hp, max fuel economy and/or the best balance of both worlds? Last…what the heck is a “hemi”?
Indeed they do. In fact, my new Subaru (well, it’s a used 95 Impreza wagon, but it’s new to me) has a flat 4. At first I thought it was a V-4 and then realized that there wasn’t any slant to the cylinders (plus I read the manual specs). I figure it’s because it was actually built in Japan.
Oh, I don’t know much about cars myself, but someone I trust told me that I was getting a little more gas mileage and giving up a few horsepower having the engine in that flat-4 configuration instead of straight.
I am picturing a spark plug located at the center of a hemispherical piece of metal, much like one dished-shaped end found on a cylindrical storage tank. I WAG, typically, the spark plug is otherwise centered in a piece of flat metal. In either case, it forms the absolute end of combustion chamber…beyond the bore length of the cylinder, correct?
Thanks, - Jinx
This really is a more complicated question than it sounds. I took two graduate classes on IC engines and believe me there is a lot that goes into even the basic design.
Speaking generally, “flat” engines have an advantage of low profile for body clearance, but a disadvantage of needing extra “plumbing”, being wide, and needing two cylinder heads.
Generally, a “V” configuration engine allows for a shorter block. And if the “V” is very narrow, you can still use a single cylinder head. Typically, however, they have the cost disadvantage of two heads.
Inline engines are nice, but long. They typically need only a single cylinder head, unless very long (like something you wouldn’t see in a car anyhow).
Inline 6-cylinder and V12 engines have an advantage in that harmonically speaking (in a 4-stroke engine) they are well-balanced. They have no free forces of either the first or second order. The “smooth-running 90 degree V8” however does have a free first-order moment, so it has a little bit of vibration to balance out.
Possibly the most problematic common car engine from a vibration standpoint is the 60 degree V4, which is one reason you don’t see it much. They work well in motorcycles because they give a compact power unit.
Inline engine: advantages
Easy and cheap to build
Long and tall Particularly in 6 and 8 cylinder versions
Slant engine: advantages
Lower hood line than an inline engine
Easy and cheap to build disadvantages
Long and wide.
Shorter than inline or slant
Very smooth in 8 and 12 cylinder versions disadvantages
More complex to machine
can have fuel distribution issues.
Flat or opposed advantages
Very short motor in both height and length
very low center gravity. disadvantages
PITA to work on
split case design
Very wide Jinx you are about half right on the hemi question. A hemi head has a hemispherical combustion chamber. Other engine do not have a flat piece of metal, but rather some type of recess that the valves and sparkplug reside in. Some are kidney shaped, some are pent roofed, or what ever the designer came up with.
As far as the performance advantage of the hemi goes, don’t forget that the hemi became a legend back in the fifties. Chevy at the time had a 265 cubic inch V-8, Ford had a similar sized engine (260 IIRC)
Chrysler came out with a 331 cubic inch hemi in 1951, went to 354 CI in 1956, and 392 in 1957.
These engines were huge compared to what the other boys were selling. Needless to say they kicked ass. Like they say there is no substitute for cubic inches.
No, inline engines, by definition, would have a higher center of gravity than the other engine types mentioned if other factors are kept constant. By canting the cylinders, as in a 60 or 90 deg V, or horizontally opposing them a la Porsche, VW, Subaru, BMW motorcycle engines, a lower center of gravity is possible.
[There aren’t very many performance or fuel economy advantages with modern engines. But here are some of the major factors:
Packaging - it’s usually a question of long and narrow for a V versus short and wide for an inline. Slant engines were developed to make for a lower hoodline, and also a shorter engine by allowing the water pump to be on one side of the engine rather than the front. I know the offset water pump is used on Chrysler slant sixes and the sort of slanted four used in the K-cars, and I think BMW uses this too.
Ballance. Flat sixes, inline/slant sixes, and V-8’s are naturally very well ballanced engines. 90 degree V-6’s and inline fours are a bit worse. And V-4’s are pretty much impossible to run smoothly.
Cost to build - having all the cylinders in a row makes for fewer parts and cheaper machining.
Center of gravity - the closer the cylinders are to horizontal, the lower the C.G. height is.
Fuel distribution. Back in the bad old days of carburetors, an economical fuel distribution setup on an inline engine with six or more cylinders was a nightmare to pull off. Chrysler’s slant six did a bit better than most by making a very long intake manifold due to the slant so the runners were closer to equal lenght, but they still have distribution problems. About the only way to get decent fuel distribution with carbs on a straight six or eight (or something even larger) is to use multiple carbs. A V-type engine has its own distribution difficulties, but they are a bit smaller than a long inline engine.
Well, at least you didn’t claim, as some do, that Chrysler’s success was primarily due to the hemi chambers. I’ve never seen any data to support or disqualify that claim with any authority. And I agree that there is “no substitute for cubic inches,” which more likely accounts for the hemi “legend” of that day.
As for the “other boys,” you’re partially correct. Chevrolet, for example, offered no V8 at all until the intro of the 265 small-block in 1955. But they didn’t trail for long. 1957 brought the 283/283, the first production engine with a claimed horsepower output of one per cubic inch. And the next year, Chevy introduced the 348 (Was it the “W” block or the “Y” block? I can never remember…), which was revamped for 1961 as the 409 the Beach Boys sang about.
As for Ford, I’m less familiar with the lineage, but I seem to recall a 292 ci and 312 ci V8’s being in production during the Fifties. The 260 was Ford’s dismal first foray into “small block” V8’s early in the Sixties, although it soon became the famed 289. By that time, though, Ford had released the 352 and 390 big blocks…
TBone2 You are correct about the intro of the Chevy small block. After I posted I realized that I had the time line wrong.
As far as the Fords go I am in no way a Ford expert. I used my foggy memory. Using some googling I find that 292 was the engine in a 55 T-bird.
Bottom line is even the 283/283 would be way behind the 392 CI 375HP hemi with 2 4bbl carbs in a 1957 Chrysler New Yorker.
I was careful to sate that an inline six will not fit in most front wheel drive cars. I should add, for those that do not have a lot of car knowledge, that most front wheel drive cars have the engine mounted ‘sideways’ or across the car.


Chief minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy’s decision to rope in Amul will pump oxygen to the cooperative dairy sector in the state. Despite being one of the largest producers of the milk in the country, the farmers in the state could not reap rich dividends due to the dominance of private players. The private dairies have exploited the poor farmers, squeezed milk and monies to fill their own kitties leaving the producers in tatters.
The cooperative milk producers unions (district dairies managed by the government) were systematically weakened over the last two decades giving a lot of space to the private dairies to occupy. This has pushed the milk producers into troubles as the dominant private dairies offered very low returns prompting millions of farmers giving up the cattle rearing and milk production.
YS Jagan Mohan Reddy realized the seriousness of the issue during his interactions with the rural poor during his near 3500-km long padayatra. After taking over the reins of the state, YS Jagan directed the officials to bring Amul on board to bring cheers back on to the faces of milk producers.
“Milk procurement under AP-Amul project will take off in Prakasam, Chittoor, and Kadapa districts with distribution of cheques to dairy farmers by the chief minister on Wednesday,” said animal husbandry minister Sidiri Appala Raju. He said that the state government had signed an MoU with Amul to encourage milk cooperative societies, especially those run by women.
Experts in the dairy sector say Amul’s entry will bring many farmers back into milk production. Since the government has set its focus on empowering women through dairy development, it is going to change the milk production scenario in the state.
“We are immensely happy to be back in milk production as we purchased cattle thanks to the support from Jagananna Cheyutha scheme,” said Manikyamma of Darsi village of Prakasam district.

South East Queensland
19.11 Transfer of water outside of region
The volumetric value for the line item at the end of the 2011–12 year was 3,012 ML.
This line item consists of all potable, non–potable, wastewater and recycled water transferred out of the South East Queensland (SEQ) region from the urban water supply system, wastewater collection system and the recycled water supply system.
No transfers of potable and non-potable water from the urban water supply systems in the SEQ region to outside the region occur.
The Highfields wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) is located within the Condamine–Balonne Water Resource Plan area, outside the SEQ region. However, part of the catchment area for the Highfields WWTP is located within the SEQ region. The wastewater entering the Highfields WWTP from the portion of the catchment area located within the SEQ region was included in this line item. The Highfield wastewater export was 139 ML.
Treated wastewater produced at the Landsborough WWTP was transported north, out of the SEQ region, to the Kawana WWTP. The volume of wastewater transferred out of the SEQ region to Kawana WWTP was included in this line item. The Landsborough effluent export was 866 ML.
The Western Corridor Recycled Water Scheme supplies high quality recycled water (purified recycled water) to the Tarong power station, located 180 km northwest of Brisbane, outside of the SEQ region. In 2011–12, purified recycled water of 5,670 ML was supplied to Tarong and Swanbank power stations. Out of this, 3,663 ML (Line item 19.4) was supplied to the Swanbank power station that is within the SEQ region and the rest 2,007 ML was supplied to the Tarong power station.
All recycled water transferred out of the SEQ region to the Tarong power station was included in this line item.
|Landsborough effluent export||866|
|Highfield wastewater export||139|
|Western Corridor Recycled Water Scheme (Tarong)||2,007|
|Total SEQ region||3,012|
The volume transferred to the Tarong power station in the 2011–12 reporting period was slightly higher than in 2010–11 (1,379 ML). Stanwell, the owners of the Tarong power station, have surface water licences in the Burnett water resource plan area that are used to supply cooling water. Recycled water use as cooling water increases during times of drought as the security of the surface water licences is low. As the 2011–12 reporting period was slightly drier than previous year, the reliance on recycled water for cooling was higher than in previous year.
Seqwater WaterHub database (the Tarong power station supply)
Toowoomba regional council database (Highfields WWTP transfer)
Unitywater database (Landsborough WWTP transfer)
Bureau of Meteorology.
The volume of wastewater exported from the SEQ region to the Highfields WWTP was estimated by Toowoomba Regional Council using based on the percentage of the WWTP catchment area located within the SEQ region.
The volume of treated wastewater produced at the Landsborough WWTP and transported north, out of the SEQ region, to the Kawana WWTP was provided by Unitywater.
The volume of water transferred out of the SEQ region to the Tarong power station was obtained from the WaterHub database (meter M-086-MW).
Assumptions, limitations, caveats and approximations
It was assumed that the wastewater treated by the Highfields WWTP was collected evenly across the catchment area. Varying densities of housing may occur within this region, resulting in a slight inaccuracy in the estimate. It is expected that this inaccuracy would be minor in nature.
The uncertainty estimate was not quantified.

Implementation of Medical Research in Clinical Practice – European Science Foundation briefing
“Much clinical decision-making remains insufﬁciently informed by reliable evidence, and much research is not methodologically robust. Some treatments actually harm patients, while other, worthwhile, treatments are not used widely enough. The Forward Look, Implementation of Medical Research in Clinical Practice, prepared by the European Medical Research Councils (EMRC) addressed the question: ‘How can the treatment of patients be improved through better research and better use of research results?’ The issues were thoroughly discussed and debated by more than 90 participants from around Europe and the rest of the world, culminating in a consensus conference. The resulting Forward Look has received widespread coverage and support in a range of media across Europe.

A mild deficiency in vitamin C appears to harm vascular elasticity and function, a key symptom of the pregnancy complication preeclampsia, according to new research presented this week.
"Research is closing in on this menace," said Dr James M. Roberts, professor and chairman of research in the department of obstetrics, gynaecology and reproductive sciences at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, director of the Magee-Womens Research Institute and president of the International Society for the Study of Hypertension in Pregnancy. "But there is still much to do," he added.
Every six minutes, a woman dies from the pregnancy complication, that is, nine women an hour, according to the Preeclampsia Foundation. The disorder, which is linked to hypertension and affects 3 million women a year worldwide, can be equally devastating for infants.
Carl A. Hubel, assistant professor of obstetrics, gynaecology and reproductive sciences at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, and his colleagues, studied arterial pressure and elasticity in pregnant and non-pregnant rats that, like humans, are unable to synthesise vitamin C.
Dr Hubel's group found that blood vessel stiffness increased in pregnant rats when vitamin C concentrations were restricted. However non-pregnant animals were not similarly affected by vitamin C restriction.
These results were observed despite a natural physiologic change initiated by pregnancy that typically increases blood vessel elasticity, which in turn affects blood pressure.
While researchers have long known that vitamin C concentrations are decreased in women with preeclampsia, the specific effect on vascular function remains unclear, according to Dr Hubel, also an investigator with the Magee-Womens Research Institute.
Women who have previously experienced preeclampsia, also known as toxemia and characterised by high blood pressure, swollen ankles and the presence of protein in the urine, have an even greater chance of developing the disorder in subsequent pregnancies. Other risk factors include maternal age of less than 25 or more than 35 years and preexisting hypertension, diabetes or kidney disease.
"Preeclampsia is one of the leading causes of maternal, foetal and neonatal disability and death," said Dr Roberts.
Scientists from the Magee-Womens Research Institute and the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine presented the study at the 13th World Congress of the International Society for the Study of Hypertension in Pregnancy.

Red Sauce – with meat (cooked & mixed together)
(use either your fave jar OR make from scratch)
Oven Ready Lasagna Noodles
Whipped Cream Cheese
Shredded Cheddar Cheese
Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
To begin – the red sauce doesn’t even have to be hot. That’s why this recipe is great for leftover red sauce.
Spray bottom of slow cooker with a little cooking spray. Spoon 1 thin layer or meat/sauce mixture on bottom. Then spread a thin layer of cream cheese on uncooked lasagna noodle. (break them if you need to make them fit your slow cooker)
Next, sprinkle some of the shredded cheese. Top that cheesy layer with a little of the meat mixture. Then you repeat – starting with spreading the whipped cream cheese on the uncooked long noddle. Do shredded cheese again, then red sauce. Top that layer of sauce with a little more shredded cheese. THEN you are ready to cover it tightly in the slow cooker. Put it on low, and cook for 3 – 3 ½ hours. DO NOT open it to check on it. (that cuts slow cooking time down by 30 minutes)
It should be perfect and ready after 3 – 3 ½ hours. SO good!!!!
***no need to go heavy on any of the layers. But use the amounts YOU like. There is no hard measurement for the cheeses…..that’s your call.
Oh, and be sure to PLUG your slow cooker in. :o)
