Oysho is a womenswear brand whose pieces are said to be 'lovingly designed to marry fashion and grace with comfort and quality.' But is it ethical and sustainable?
If you're on the hunt for lingerie, beachwear, loungewear, and athletic gear that's embraces the minimalist aesthetic, you may like Oysho. The brand is a great place to shop for stylish basics that make you look instantly put together.
You could say it's Zara's younger, more carefree sister — because it is. Oysho is part of the Spanish powerhouse retailing group Inditex. To refresh your memory, it also owns the brands Pull & Bear, Massimo Dutti, Bershka, Stradivarius, and Uterque.

What does this mean in terms of Oysho's ethics and sustainability? Let's find out.
Is Oysho sustainable?
In 2018, Oysho launched a 'Join Life' collection, which features products created with eco-friendly fabrics such as organic cotton, Tencel, and recycled polyester.
While the brand doesn't have a dedicated page for its sustainability policies, it does share its goals for the Join Life collection. The brand said that it is committed to use 100% sustainable cellulose fibers and green packaging by 2023, as well as reach 100% zero-plastic given to customers in any form.
However, the brand doesn't share where they are when it comes to these goals.
Another major point to consider is that the Join Life collection is just a portion of its entire product selection. You won't be wrong to assume that the other products are not made of sustainable or environment-friendly materials.
On top of that, Oysho operates with a fast-fashion model — much like Shein, NastyGal, and Boohoo. 'We renew collections as fast as the fashion trends change,' it says.
Now, the question is: Can fast fashion ever be sustainable?

Is Oysho ethical?
Inditex brands, Oysho included, scored 51-60% in the Fashion Transparency Index. This means they've made a few details of some of their policies available to the public.
As far as commitment to people goes, Oysho currently has two stores that are part of its mother company's 'for&from' program, which aims to employ people with disabilities. The brand has 575 stores as of writing.
Oysho itself has not had complaints about its labour practices, but its parent company has been called out for taking down a statement about its zero-tolerance policy for forced labour, in light of the surfacing of workers' maltreatment in Xinjiang, China. The province is one of the largest producers and suppliers of cotton for many brands, including those under Inditex.
Aside from that, there is also no proof that the brand provides its workers with living wages, according to Good On You.

Oysho's Animal Welfare Policy
Like its sister brands, Oysho, under Inditex, is in agreement with the Fur Free Alliance to commit to not sell products that contain animal fur such as rabbit, sable, mink, coyote, muskrat, fox, and more.
Wear Next Opinion
Wear Next believes it's important to highlight the negative and unjust practises taking place in the fashion industry. We believe ethics and sustainability are an important talking point to bring about change and we encourage you to contact fashion brands to demand this.
However we understand that sustainable fashion isn't accessible for every body due to various factors, such as budget and the ability to find confidence-boosting clothes that fit. We will continue to offer you fashion inspiration and guidance to suit every body and budget, while also highlighting the unjust systems at play in the fashion industry.

Pantone, the company that produces the printing industry's standard colour matching system, recently announced that the colour of 2013 is to be Pantone 17-5641 Emerald.
It is said to be the colour of clarity, renewal and rejuvenation. It also has strong ties with nature. "Green is the most abundant hue in nature – the human eye sees more green than any other colour in the spectrum," said Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Colour Institute in a recent press release.
Pantone chooses the Colour of the Year by "combing the world looking for influences". They claim in the past their Colour of the Year has influenced the worlds of fashion, industrial, packaging and graphic design.
Now green is not a colour that I'm naturally tempted to use in the home but I am interested in upcycling as a home decor option.
I'm sure the shops will be abundant with gorgeous emerald home accessories in the next few months but may I suggest a much cheaper and individual alternative? There are many cool eco ways to bring emerald green into your home without buying new - how about using a recycled hose pipe as a door mat, repainting existing furniture or displaying greenery in recycled glass?
Pantone's influence is huge in the design business - let's hope it encourages people to think of recycling as a valid design option.
Here are a few of my favourite emerald upcycling ideas.
Proof that you can follow trends without spending vast amounts of money or wasting precious resources.
Recycling or upcycling - what better way to renew and rejuvenate your home as we head into a new year?
What a beautiful post - so informative, and a great colour - I never knew Pantone did that!
Great colour and ideas...I love those painted drawers!
Great post - I didn't realise either than Pantone did that. I'm feeling the need for an emerald Pantone mug now! Lovely upcycling photos too.
Personally, I don't like the colour that much and am rather happy, as I hope that this year's yellows will make it to the thrift store and I'll finally get a yellow sweater I like.
I love that colour although coming up with a colour of the year seems to be just another marketing ploy to get us all buying new things. I like you will follow the upcycle route! I love that mantelpiece with the fern leaves.

'Legality of e-toll system still in question'
Outa has urged motorists not to pay outstanding bills and has called the system 'unlawful'.

Unpaid etolls
Opposition to Urban Tolling Alliance Outa
Etolls New Dispensation
Mia Lindeque | 1879 days ago
JOHANNESBURG - Two years after e-tolling was implemented on Gauteng highways, the Opposition to Urban Tolling Alliance (Outa) says it's clear the system is not working, with less than 10 percent of motorists paying their debt.
Since the start of the month, road users have been eligible to apply for a 60 percent discount on their historic debt - this window will close in May.
The electronic tolling concession says the current compliance figure is around 30 percent and the amount of debt owed is R5,9 billion.
Outa's Wayne Duvenage has urged motorists not to fork out money, saying the legality of the system is still in question.
"If you got a bonus this season, do not get tempted to pay outstanding e-toll bills. The reason we say that is because those e-toll bills are unlawful. The whole scheme is unlawful. We say to the public, they do not have an e-toll bill."

Bruce Elmer Turner of Calgary, AB, passed away on Thursday, July 26, 2018 at the age of 81 years.
Bruce was born in Vancouver, raised in Blairmore and lived most of his adult life in Calgary.
He will be sorely missed by his many friends at the Hillhurst Sunnyside Framers Market where he had a collectables and antiques table for more than thirty-five years.
He was predeceased by his parents, Doris and Robert Turner of Blairmore; and his brothers, Gordon Robert Turner and William Turner.
If they wish, relatives are directed to contact the Government Trustee Office at 403-297-2816. Condolences may be forwarded through www.mcinnisandholloway.com.
In living memory of Bruce Turner, a tree will be planted at Fish Creek Provincial Park by McINNIS & HOLLOWAY FUNERAL HOMES, Park Memorial, 5008 Elbow Drive S.W., Calgary, AB, T2S 2L5, Calgary, AB, T2X 3J3, Telephone: 403-243-8200.
Just learned of Bruce's passing tonight. So very sorry for your loss. He was a wonderful man and a great character. I am blessed to have known him. I will miss our chats at the antique shows.
My husband and I worked for many years with Bruce at the Calgary General Hospital for many years and we shared a lot of memories.
Bruce was kind hearted, generous and loyal. He will be truly missed.
I met Bruce at one of the Church rummage sales over the years- he was always great to talk to, very respectable – he shared many of his "treasure findings" and was always so excited to get to the next sale, to see what he could find. Rest in peace Bruce.


A person convicted of a felony is eligible for an additional prior record point if "the offense was committed while the offender was on supervised or unsupervised probation, parole, or post-release supervision, or while the offender was serving a sentence of imprisonment, or while the offender was on escape from a correctional institution." G.S. 15A-1340.14(b)(7). I call that point the "under supervision" bonus point. Though part of the defendant's prior record level, the point is probably best thought of as an aggravating factor. A recent court of appeals case reminds us why.
In State v. Crook, the defendant was convicted of several felonies. He had only one prior conviction that counted for a sentencing point—a DWI. He was apparently still on probation for that when he committed the felonies at issue in Crook, because he was also assessed the "under supervision" bonus point. That gave him two points, putting him in prior record level II.
The court of appeals concluded that the point was not properly found. The court said the prior record level worksheet didn't affirmatively show that the State had given the proper notice of its intent to prove the point, and the stipulation to the point was not clear evidence that the defendant had waived the notice. Because the improper bonus point raised the prior record level from I to II, the court remanded for resentencing.
Crook may be a little surprising to some. Prior record level is generally something we think of as informal—often proved by stipulation, and even when disputed, proved to the judge by a mere preponderance of the evidence. As Shea noted in yesterday's post, that's generally fine, because prior convictions are exempt from Blakely v. Washington, 542 U.S. 296 (2004).
But the under supervision bonus point is different. It relates to a person's prior criminal activity (he was on probation because of a prior crime), but it is not itself a prior conviction. It requires proof of the person's status as a supervisee, inmate, or escapee at the time of his or her present criminal activity—facts that have never been subjected to jury proof. Some court have held that these types of facts fall within the prior conviction exception to Blakely. See, e.g., United States v. Corchado, 427 F.3d 815 (10th Cir. 2005) (holding that a judge-found sentencing enhancement based on the defendant's probationary status did not violate the Sixth Amendment). Some courts have concluded that they do not. See, e.g., Butler v. Curry, 528 F.3d 624 (9th Cir. 2008) (holding that the fact of being on probation at the time of the crime does not fall within the prior conviction exception to Blakely).
Our legislature erred on the side of caution, including the under supervision bonus point within the same notice and proof requirements applicable to statutory aggravating factors, spelled out in G.S. 15A-1340.16: 30 days' notice of intent to prove (-1340.16(a6)); and determination by the jury beyond a reasonable doubt (-1340.16(a5)) or admission taken under the procedures spelled out in G.S. 15A-1022.1 (-1340.16(a1)). If the defendant is going to admit to the point, he does not merely stipulate to it; he pleads guilty to it.
The AOC forms reflect this understanding. What form does the State use to give notice of the under supervision point? The Notice of Aggravating Factors form, AOC-CR-614 (the prior record point portion is on the top of Side Two).
What form does the court use to memorialize a defendant's admission to it, including a waiver of notice, if any? The Transcript of Plea, AOC-CR-300 (#16 on Page One, Side Two).
And if a defendant demands a trial on it, where does the court note that the jury found the facts underlying the point beyond a reasonable doubt? On the prior record level worksheet, by checking the box indicated below.
I've said it before and I'll say it again now: the "Stipulation" box on the prior record level worksheet can be a trap. It's a trap for the under supervision point, as discussed in today's post. It's a trap when it comes to "substantial similarity" of out-of-state prior convictions, as discussed here. And it's a trap when it comes to the other possible bonus point, the "same elements" bonus point, because that (like substantial similarity) is a question of law to which a person may not validly stipulate, as discussed here. To the extent that any of those issues are incorporated into the ultimate determination of the defendant's prior record level, any purported stipulation to the level as a whole is ripe for challenge on appeal or through postconviction collateral attack.
Any similar statute, due process argument, or AOC form that would give a similar notice requirement for misdemeanors?
WHO DO I CONTACT TO GET OUTSIDE HELP IN MAKING SURE MY HUSBAND'S WORKSHEET FOR PRIOR RECORD POINTS IS CALCULATED CORRECTLY?
My husband is currently incarcerated. He went before a Forsyth Co judge in January 2017. His Worksheet for Prior-Record Level was [we believe purposefully] miscalculated by the DA, which grossly misrepresented him in court before the judge for sentencing purposes. My husband was labeled a Level VI for Prior Record Level [giving him 20 points] when his lawyer now tells me he should have had only 10 -12 points and should be considered a Level IV.
My husband goes back in for RE-SENTENCING on June 15th. I am looking for a Sentencing Expert, that may help me in interpreting his Prior Record Level Worksheet [all of his previous convictions are from FL] BEFORE this new court date. I need to know that what both the new DA and my husband's PAID ATTY come up with are correct this time and not some fictitious piece of their imagination since BOTH admit to getting it wrong the first time. I realize now it was my husband's atty's job to KNOW his worksheet and to challenge any errors on it in January. This simply did not happen.


According to the Brain Injury Association of America, approximately 2.6 million Americans sustain some type of brain injury each year. Many of these people are victims of serious accidents or incidents of negligence that result in oxygen deprivation or damaging blows to the head. These injuries are frequently caused by motor vehicle collisions, medical malpractice incidents, product defects, and acts of intentional violence.
If you or a loved one has sustained a brain injury due to the negligent actions of another person or corporate entity, contact the Orange County brain injury lawyers at Paoli & Purdy, PC. We understand that the physical and cognitive repercussions of a brain injury can have a lasting impact on your quality of life.

Call our Orange County brain injury attorneys at (949) 751-6371 if you're interested in filing a claim.
Traumatic brain injuries are legally considered "catastrophic injuries" because they can prevent a victim from holding gainful employment and maintaining their prior standard of living. Unfortunately, it can be challenging for medical professionals to identify and treat brain injuries unless a victim exhibits physical side effects and symptoms.
For this reason, it's extremely important that you seek immediate medical attention after sustaining a head injury. Some symptoms can take weeks to appear, so it's important to take note of any physical or behavioral changes you're experiencing. After meeting with your doctor, you can request a copy of your medical record. This essential piece of evidence proves to the court and any rival insurance company representatives that you took the proper steps to seek medical attention for your injuries.
At Paoli & Purdy, PC, we believe that your injuries warrant compensation for your personal, physical, and emotional suffering. We take pride in providing our clients with personalized legal services and compassionate guidance. Our firm is equipped to handle your personal injury case, no matter how simple or complex it may be.

Our Orange County brain injury lawyers can then investigate your case, collect evidence, and work with medical experts to develop a keen litigation strategy that reflects your legal objectives. With our guidance, you can hold the responsible party accountable for their actions and recover essential compensation in the process.


If social media was the big thing in 2010 and 2011, then mobile is clearly leading the charge for the hearts and minds of both businesses and consumers in 2012.
While QR codes and push marketing via SMS campaigns have started the flow, the recent uptake in smartphone adoption across all parts of the globe means this year is going to be huge for mobile marketing and commerce.
A?recent report from comScore?emphasizes this point more than ever, and offers business owners and marketers an overview into the strategy they need to be preparing for the coming year.
Where mobile use was initially strong in the U.S. (and continues to be with 42% of the mobile market there on smartphones), Europe is now leading the charge, with 44% of users in France, Germany, the U.K., Italy and Spain using smartphones.
The clear leaders in the field are Apple and Google, with their iPhone and Android platforms respectively. Android continues to be the lead platform, with almost half of U.S. users on it, and capturing 60% of the five countries mentioned above in Europe.
Shoppers are using smartphones much more when in-store, using apps and search to compare prices and offers, as well as scanning barcodes for reviews and comparisons prior to making a purchase.
These are just some of the stats that jump out immediately. The report also looks at how mobile is driving the amount of interaction on social sites like Twitter and Facebook, as well as cross-platform use between smartphones and tablets.
Simply put, the biggest message coming from the report is that you need to have a mobile strategy more than ever, and sooner rather than later.
So how can your business adapt to the findings if you haven?t already?
While it can be easier for smaller businesses to adapt than larger ones, due to red tape and the approval process, the need to be adaptable is key across all businesses, regardless of size.
It?s why RIM is currently struggling in the smartphone market after leading it for so long. Poor leadership and products that lagged behind a hungrier competition saw the BlackBerry make fall from grace in a way not seen since Yahoo took a dive in the search market.
So, if a market leader like RIM can fall so bad, it shows the need for your business to be on top of its game ? especially in the mobile world we?re increasingly living in.
Looking at some of the stats from the report, there are a few ways that you can use the information to ramp up your mobile strategy and build successful campaigns around them.
Look at your website analytics?and see how many of your visitors are coming in via mobile browsing (whether that?s smartphone or tablet use). Then look at your site and see if that?s been?mobile-optimized or, at the very least, if it?s mobile-friendly. If it isn?t, that needs to become a priority to resolve.
Take the expense hit and create a simple mobile app?that visitors to your site or offline properties can download. This can be an overview of products; a simple e-commerce app; an inventory checker; a mobile loyalty card; a fun media app; or a number of other solutions. Encourage use of the app by giving special offers or discounts to those app users (you can?track the uptake and success of these by?something like Google Campaigns in your analytics set-up).
Market to your market.?This might sound a lot like common sense, but you?d be surprised how many businesses lack it? Looking at your analytics, as well as monitoring how your content is being shared (are users tweeting about you from an iPhone app versus an Android one, for instance), you can tailor content and landing pages to the preferred platform. iPhone users may prefer a less cluttered design, while Android users may prefer being able to save a sale inside their Google Calendar directly from their smartphone.
Optimize the experience for the experience of the user.?As the comScore report shows, the demographics of smartphone use are very different from standard mobile browsing. Take advantage of this, and build offers, mobile promotions and more around the language and purchase cycles of your demographic. Can you tie a fun, QR-code led promotion for surfers during Spring Break, for example? Or a movie tie-in?special using mobile-exclusive codes for the Twilight saga, and have SMS specials delivered to moviegoers who text your number for the offer?
Again, these are just some basic ideas on how you can measure your audience; adapt on the fly to time-sensitive opportunities; and implement quickly and smartly (no pun intended) to the smartphone crowd.
The opportunities are pretty much endless. And smartphone users have shown that they?re open to offers, especially if they?re well-planned and executed properly.
But with the information available to businesses from a variety of sources, that should now be the easy part. You just need to make sure you?re in the mobile game to start with.

Which one of you is scared of the famous or obscure?
While the gentleman sail across the lonely still sea.
The man she sees got Wills she thinks are mere wishes.
Sitting next to him in a work of art.
The truth she sighs, she just can't wait.
Kissing lips and all the same hair net.
Which never wait for a lagging clock.
Farms, gardens and down the same roads.
Waning the paper into tearing.
I have been deceived by adoring.
I have been misled into falling.
As a kid, I so much heard adages that I never understood until I grew up. The bible helped in differentiation: the good from the bad, since I was scare of going to hell. Everyone has a past that keeps hunting his or her mind. When I was ten years old, I came across three elderly men sitting beneath a tall palm tree lamenting on the past years, which they miss. The stories they told were touching that I had to shear tears with them. I never had things to think of; I played and ran around the street in pantaloons. Electricity supply was a failure hence hopscotch, football and hide and seek were my favorite games. For this present day child, computer games and movies have taken over my favorite games. My parents were neither poor nor rich yet they had a farm. I hated farm work that at then when my mother would ask my elder sister and I to carry a basket fill of cassava from the farm to the house, we would wonder why a mother would be so heartless subjecting her own little children to such stressful hard work for little did we know it was part of the parental care, and she loved us. Keeping things hide or hair of course, I never hesitated to half my basket as I walk through the lonely path. I learnt pounding fufu by force. At then the mortar always ran as I stroke the pistil crushing the yam; so I would summon all my younger ones to get hold the running mortar. My dad never made mistakes giving me multivitamins whenever I leave for school and I also never forgot to deposit it in the waste bin as soon as I got to school.
There are many things on earth that exist crystal clear, but we realize only when we fail. When I was ten, I made a bet with a friend. The bet was called hit and fall. Anyone who succeeds in striking down his opponents' property would own it. A very good sport I felt as I made success claiming his stuffs. At that year, my mum had a store. One day he came to buy sweats, as I picked up to sweat cup to give him his articles, he stroke it down.
Of course, that was my mums' stuff; I fought hard with him until the neighbors came. They separated us and reported the case to my mum when she came back.
I was thinking I just saw the sunlight for the last time and was annoyed that I wouldn't have a befitting burial as I was a bad kid. So surprising she did not beat me up like other days, but yelled and scared the living soul off me. This narrow path seems not worthy but it is the generator of my decency.
But why do I scare life and attract the yellow ants and choking dust?
I never regret the deeds; for a braves' leader must be sage.
On its orbit, I shall never drop.
To notice all hush-hush underneath the sun.
Just call it parental care.
I have created, destroyed, and repaired.
On my check, palm, back and buttocks.
I must always payoff the deeds.
I have smiled and I have cried.
Bubbling like a stream boiling.
The heart as dark as ash; yet a saint he appears.
The sun never shines forever.

Excessive Baltimore Ravens Tips
Through Baltimore's 4-game winning streak, the defense has produced additional turnovers than TDs allowed . That mentioned, McCann acknowledged that "a group does not invest a initially-round pick in an insanely athletic talent just to get yeoman's function out of him. They want, and anticipate, a game-wrecker." McCann believes that can nonetheless take place. Ten games into the season, however, Oweh has just one sack and six quarterback hits. Though this hyperlink these numbers are disappointing, they also are somewhat misleading, according to Russell Street Report's Darin McCann. "If you are Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens, you happen to be going to have to show that you can throw that damn football in order for real success to come your way," Smith stated. "If they weren't operating the football properly but they have been throwing it significantly superior, I would feel, far, far, far more confident about what I'm seeing from the Ravens.
Dobbins is prepared for Week 1, Mike Davis, Justice Hill, Tyler Badie and Nate McCrary are competing to earn carries as part of the Ravens' running back committee.
Head Coach John Harbaugh has been impressed with how James has gotten up speed following his extended absence.
"He presents his own distinctive challenges. There is no quarterback specifically like him in football, and they built the offense around him seriously properly. So, that is what we're faced with."
A season ago quarterback Lamar Jackson was only able to play 12 games due to injuries and star operating back JK Dobbins suffered an ACL injury in a preseason game and missed the entirety of his second NFL campaign.
Needless to say, this has place the Ravens' offensive impetus on his shoulders.
Last season, the Packers became the initial group to clinch a division, carrying out so in Week 15.
And former Pro Bowl left tackle Ronnie Stanley is anticipated to return quickly after missing all but a single game of final season because of injury. It is essential to note right here that each Snead and Brown love Jackson. What they never like is the offense that has turned Jackson into one particular of the brightest stars in the league.
What Every one Dislikes About Baltimore Ravens And Why
Calais Campbell's blocked 40-yard field objective proved to be monumental in a two-point win. It's his second of the year as Campbell continues to have a monster season, both on defense and specific teams. Following the game, Harbaugh showed no hesitation calling him a Hall of Famer.
Nonetheless just 26 years old, Smith-Schuster has excellent career production as a possession receiver who adds a physical run-following-catch element to any offense. He was in the prime 20 in pressures among defensive tackles last year, according to Pro Football Concentrate, and was tied for fifth this season ahead https://dollstjournal.blogspot.com/ of suffering a hip injury in Week 14 that sent him to injured reserve. Offered for as well extended immediately after getting released by the Giants final offseason, Bradberry signed a prove-it deal with the Eagles.
Little Known Factual Statements About Baltimore Ravens.
His remaining cap hits are $five.6 million in 2023 and $6.9 million in 2024. Whilst Baltimore looks to create rookie fourth round offensive tackle Daniel Faalele, they couldn't ask for a improved veteran on a affordable contract. Even even though there was no way Williams could have stopped quick of the end zone, he was nonetheless ruled to be down at the 1-yard line instead of a touchback that would have provided the Ravens the ball at the 20. That was a massive distinction, particularly considering it was Brown's 1st NFL snap on the ensuing play.
It'll be a wild negotiating procedure, even if the most clear answer — the a single exactly where Jackson gets the contract he deserves — isn't the one that winds up taking place. With no Jackson in the lineup, offensive coordinator Greg Roman had to rely on a below average quarterback and his beneath typical getting corps. That meant clusters of brief throws, occasional deep shots that went nowhere and, uh, whatever the hell this was.
Baltimore's defense bailed him out with good coverage and a Patrick Queen strip ahead of Jones could unleash a Hail Mary.
The Ravens believe Bateman could be their future WR1 and a leap from him in 2022 would go a long way toward establishing this offense as a unsafe unit.
The Ravens have spent extra time for the duration of OTAs and minicamp functioning on deep routes, and Lamar Jackson had a nice connection with Bateman on a 65-yard completion through Wednesday's practice.
When you know what the guy is going to do next to you, and you know who that's going to be, that assists.
With the addition of veteran Michael Pierce and third-round choose Travis Jones, the Ravens also figure to get much more sacks from their defensive linemen than the 5.5 the unit recorded in 2021.
He has not allowed a sack and only provided up eight pressures this season. As a team, the Panthers have a pass blocking grade of 74.1 , ranking sixth in the NFL. Mayfield threw for 3 touchdowns in the second half at Cincinnati in Week 9 in relief of PJ Walker. Jackson was held out of practice on Friday will an illness but he is expected to play against the Panthers.
Immediate Methods To Baltimore Ravens In Step-by-step Depth
Stone is flourishing as a starter in wake of Marcus Williams' injury and led the Ravens with six tackles and created a heady pass breakup against the Bucs. Isaiah Likely's breakout game in Tampa ought to be a big confidence enhance. Kyle Hamilton was Pro Football Focus' highest-graded defender Thursday evening, and Jordan Stout averaged 52.5 yards per punt.
The drive also featured an ineligible player downfield penalty and had a fumble harmlessly roll out of bounds. Not how you draw it up, but the Ravens will take it having said that it comes. With that stated, the query this week if Jackson does not return is about what need to be expected of the offense moving forward. The Ravens already lost top wide receiver Rashod Bateman for the year. All-Pro left tackle Ronnie Stanley missed his second straight game.

Il korfball, versione inglese dell'olandese korfbal, è uno sport di squadra originario dei Paesi Bassi, ideato da un insegnante di Amsterdam, Nico Broekhuyzen, nel 1902.

Storia
Le regole di base si rifanno a quelle del gioco svedese chiamato ring boll, che Broekhuyzen aveva conosciuto durante un soggiorno nella località Nääs in Svezia proprio nel 1902. Il Korfball ha la prerogativa di essere uno dei pochi sport esistenti a non essere riservato a uomini e donne separatamente: maschi e femmine giocano insieme in squadre miste; per questo motivo viene solitamente detto lo Sport delle Pari Opportunità. In diverse regole di gioco, questa disciplina è simile al netball.

Nei Paesi Bassi si trova la più vecchia e più grande associazione sportiva di korfball ancora esistente, la Haagsche Korfbal Club ALO (Club di korfball di L'Aia), istituita il 1º gennaio 1906. Rivale storica di questo club è la DTV di Amsterdam che vanta come data di fondazione il 1º novembre 1902 anche se è in realtà sorta nella sua forma attuale dalla fusione tra la prima associazione korfballistica del mondo, la DEV, la DTV e la Allen Weerbaar, quest'ultima aggiuntasi di recente.

Il korfball fu disciplina dimostrativa durante la VII Olimpiade che fu organizzata ad Anversa nel 1920. Nel 1933 è stata fondata la federazione internazionale, l'IKF, che ha sede a Zeist.

Il Korfball in Italia
In Italia, la Federazione Italiana Korfball è stata fondata a Torino il 29 agosto 2003 da Domenico Bencivenga, Professore di Educazione Fisica, ed è entrata a far parte dell'International Korfball Federation, come 38º membro ufficiale internazionale, l'8 novembre dello stesso anno, durante il congresso mondiale tenutosi a Rotterdam (Paesi Bassi).

L'Italia ha vinto la Coppa del Mediterraneo nel 2005 a Moncalieri (Torino) nella sua prima apparizione continentale contro la Grecia.

La prima manifestazione ufficiale nazionale, la Coppa Italia, si è tenuta nel 2004 ad Arquata Scrivia (Alessandria) ed è stata vinta dalla "A.S.D. Aurora 2003 Torino".

I primi club italiani di Korfball sono stati la "A.S.C.D. Gruppo Sportivo Mondo Sport" e la "A.S.D. Aurora 2003", entrambi di Torino, seguiti dalla "A.S.D. Arquata Scrivia Korfball 03" e dalla "A.S.D. Carrara Korfball". Hanno vinto il campionato italiano la "A.S.D. Carrara Korfball" (2005), la "A.S.D. Arquata Scrivia Korfball 03" (2006) e la "A.S.D. Evansalus Club Padova" (2007, 2009 e 2011). La "A.S.D. Evansalus Club Padova" ha partecipato a due edizioni dell'Europa Cup: nel 2007-2008 e nel 2011-2012.

Regolamento

Questa disciplina atletica si pratica su campo, a forma rettangolare, lungo 60 m e largo 30 m all'aperto o lungo 40 m e largo 20 m al coperto. Il campo è diviso in due zone uguali nelle quali, a inizio partita, si schierano due squadre: ogni squadra è composta da quattro donne e quattro uomini. In ogni metà campo, posizionato ad una distanza pari ad un terzo dal fondo, sono posti due pali alti 3,5 m. che sostengono due canestri in plastica di forma circolare. Ogni canestro realizzato vale un punto e la partita è vinta da chi realizza più punti in 70 minuti, divisi in due tempi di 35, su campo all'aperto o in 60 minuti, divisi in due tempi di 30, su campo al coperto: il riposo tra tempi dura 10 minuti. La palla usata è sferica in gomma e pesa 445-475 g. A parte il palleggio di controllo, non è ammesso palleggiare. Non si può rubare la palla se non su intercettazione nei passaggi. Non è ammesso il contatto fisico. Ogni difensore può difendere solo attaccanti del suo stesso sesso: in caso contrario si procederà con il free-pass. Non si può tirare se marcati; in caso si tirasse marcati il korf viene annullato e si procede con una rimessa a favore della squadra in difesa. Nel caso in cui avvenga un fallo nell'azione di tiro o semplicemente l'attaccante venga ostacolato da un difensore di sesso diverso dal suo si procederà con il penalty, a meno che non venga realizzato il korf. Il difensore si considera in atteggiamento non difensivo se tiene le braccia basse dietro la schiena. Ogni 2 korf totali i 4 giocatori in attacco vanno in difesa e viceversa.

We have an 8 day rotating schedule at ASB, so the first question that people have asked me when I've said we're having a Day 9 is "What the heck is that?" Day 9 happened on the elementary campus. It happened because the secondary campus was holding a parent conference day with no lessons for students, and because we needed to keep both campuses on the same day of the schedule. We therefore had an extra day, and someone decided to call it Day 9. It was a day that was completely blank on my schedule - what was going to fill it?
At ASB this year one of our goals is personalized learning and having students pursue their passions. Our other goal is 21st century skills. While we are eventually going to focus on 9 of these skills, this year we are looking at these 4: collaboration, critical thinking, information fluency, and creativity and innovation. As our elementary principal, Joe Atherton, wrote in an email to us. "There's no better way to impart our values and skill to our students than by intentionally modeling them ourselves."
The idea behind Day 9 was to base it completely on adult and student interests - we would all follow our passions for a whole day of learning. All classroom teachers, specialist teachers and teacher assistants were asked to develop a learning project, either on our own or with a partner, based on our own interests, and then to offer this project to multi-age student groups. Students were given the opportunity to look at the projects the teachers had come up with and to sign up for the one that most interested them. The idea was that at the end of Day 9 we would share our learning with the elementary school community.
How can we design, build, test, fly and revise model aircrafts to explore ideas about flight?
How do you connect with nature in an urban environment?
How can you express your creativity through poetry ?
How our actions can positively change the lives of others.
How can we use everyday sounds to help create a piece of music?
Our librarian and I decided we would work with photography. We wanted to see how photographs could be used as both documentary and as art. Our aim was that each student would shoot, edit and publish an eBook of his or her photography to share at the end of the day.
The first thing we did was to give the students a lesson in photography. We had students from Grades 3-5 who had signed up for this, and they were all coming with different skills and experiences. At the start of the day we wanted to give them some examples of different types of photography that they might like to try out. We showed them examples of photojournalism and how they capture events, news, culture and lifestyles. We also showed other types of photography such as portraits, food, sports, nature and wildlife. We talked about using photography as art, including abstract photos and about the difference between candid and posed shots. My daughter Rachel, who is studying art history at university but currently home for the holidays, showed her photography blog and a book of photographs she had published for her MYP personal project where she compared different cultural aspects of Thailand and Switzerland.
We then set off on a walk around the school and in the road outside the school. We were looking for colour, shapes, textures and patterns. We found plenty of these and several examples of the other sorts of subjects to photograph too. We even went into the school kitchens to photograph some food.
This had taken most of the morning, but before lunch I wanted the students to start editing the photographs. We showed the students PicMonkey and had them transfer all their photos to their laptops and start to edit them. We told them to concentrate on 4 main themes and to save their photos into separate folders based on these themes.
In the afternoon we continued with the editing and saving of photos, and then put our favourite ones into a Google Presentation. We asked the students to choose about 5 photos for each of their 4 themes and to add these into the slides with titles. Once the presentations were finished we exported them as PDF files.
Our final job of the afternoon to get ready for the sharing session was to upload the PDF to FlipSnack to turn it into an eBook. This was easy and we were able to produce great photographic eBooks within a matter of minutes. We put our books on display and got ready for other students to come and visit us so we could share our learning.
So that was it - an entire day devoted to taking, editing, presenting and publishing photographs. Take a look at some of these and you will be amazed by the photos. We were amazed by the passion. We all learned a lot from Day 9 and we all had fun doing it.


Could you explain a little more about this project? Is it in support of the country or the government? Is it supposed to encourage people to remember the kernel of American philosophy? I'm not here to bad mouth the project. Indeed, if it serves to remind people that America used to stand for freedom, I'm all for it. The American flag has been tainted by a corrupt president and an eminently questionable foreign policy.
A fair question, and one nobody has before asked. Simply put, it is what it is.
I think the American flag is the most beautiful flag in the world. I simply derive enjoyment out of seeing it fly in front of people's homes. That is all there is to it.
The American Flag Project makes no political statement. I can certainly see where pictures of a nation's flag could be interpreted as a political or other type of statement, but that is not the intent.
Fair answer. It is a beautiful flag. It was beautiful in Iwo Jima and Berlin but not quite so appropriate in the Middle-East.
Yes, Clinton was a bit of a disaster but at least he could string a sentence together without making himself look like an idiot. The current administration is dangerously disasterous. I wish Dubya would hook up with Monica Lewinski - it might relax him a little.
"Clinton was a bit of a disaster but at least he could string a sentence together without making himself look like an idiot."
But that was the real danger of Clinton, he could make himself look wonderful to the masses who don't have time to educate themselves to the issues and who rely on an occasional biased ABC/CBS/NBC news show to tell them what's going on. Clinton's charm hid (from most) his incompetence and immorality.
As for President Bush, he doesn't (can't) hide what he stands for. Much like Neville Chamberlain and Winston Churchill, I believe history will look back on President Bush and teach that he stood for the right things while his opponents, those who wish to appease and surrender, will be proven wrong.

Now is the time to seize 'unprecedented opportunity' of the Sustainable Development Forum, says ECOSOC President
Nations across the world now have an "unprecedented opportunity to talk to each other and learn from each other", Inga Rhonda King, President of the UN Economic and Social Council (ESOSOC), said on Tuesday, kicking off the annual High-level Political Forum on Sustainable Development (HLPF) in New York.
The HLPF is the chief global forum for reviewing successes, challenges and lessons learned, on the road towards reaching the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030.
This year, the annual meeting is being held under the theme "Empowering people and ensuring inclusiveness and equality".
"This is a global moment where we are all together", she spelled out. "We need to use it to its utmost… [and] actively interact with each other. Let us all profit from it".
The Forum will assess progress made over the past four years, since the Goals were adopted by all Member States at UN Headquarters, and decide what needs to be done moving forward and "where we are collectively in SDG implementation, globally, regionally, nationally and locally".
Ms. King explained that "this meeting is not an end in itself" but "a global platform" to showcase experiences and forge partnerships. "We all learn from each other so that we can go back enriched with new experiences" to achieve "the ultimate goal for people, planet and prosperity".
She also made clear the "special" nature of this year's HLPF, which will inform the upcoming SDG Summit in September.
"We also hope that all countries and actors will announce SDG Acceleration Actions at the summit", she said. "We must demonstrate our continuing commitment to the 2030 Agenda".
ECOSOC Vice President Valentin Rybakov updated the meeting on key messages from Monday's Integration Segment, which flagged the need to ensure inclusiveness and equality while empowering citizens across the world.
He drew attention to the strong link between the 2030 Agenda and what he dubbed the "Five Ps", namely people, planet prosperity, peace and partnership.
"Achieving the SDGs require an immediate change in course", he said. "We need to address deep rooted inequalities and vulnerabilities across the economic, social and environmental dimensions of sustainable development" by focusing on policies that "aim to lead no one behind" and address the mechanism lead to the "concentration of wealth and power at the top".
Mr. Rybakov made the case that "antidiscrimination legislature remains an important tool" to help even up gender equality while pointing to the need to address "the burden of unpaid care and domestic work" on women and girls, "which hinder their participation in education and employment".
"The subsidiary bodies and UN system recognize that all this means that we need a profound over hall of our current development models", he remarked, including to replace "silo thinking" with "integrated policies", particularly in dealing with hunger and poverty.
"It is time to step up efforts to achieve empowerment, inclusion and equality and to realize the SDGs", concluded Mr. Rybakov.

Securrency Capital appoints board advisor


You may be surprised to learn that regardless of career or workplace, every weekday most employed adults all take part in the same extremely risky activity—driving home from work.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Association (NHTSA), most automobile accidents occur during "rush hour," between 3 p.m. and 6 p.m., Monday through Friday. This is when traffic volume, of all types, is at its highest. It makes sense that more vehicles on the roads means more accidents, but it's not just the additional cars that are to blame. Multiple unsafe factors combine during rush hour to create an extremely dangerous environment on our roadways.
Sun glare, that blinding sunlight coming through the windshield, is one of the most dangerous, yet overlooked driving hazards. It's at its worst roughly an hour after sunrise and before sunset, which often coincides with rush hour. Sun glare is also especially powerful in early spring.
Some safety experts believe that sun glare is even more unsafe than rain or fog, because motorists drive slowly in inclement weather but not on a bright, clear day. Having a dirty windshield often worsens sun glare, as sun illuminates the dust and streaks we typically don't notice, so be sure to keep your windshield streak-free.
Aggressive driving occurs when a motorist commits multiple traffic offenses all together, like following too closely, speeding, unsafe lane changes, or failing to signal intent to change lanes. No one plans to drive aggressively, but this type of unsafe driving is often triggered by traffic congestion or unrealistic time constraints.
As a result, the aggressive driver generally commits multiple violations in an attempt to make up time. Tight schedules and traffic congestion both come into play during rush hour, which makes it the top time for aggressive driving to occur. Try to leave yourself plenty of time to commute to and from work to avoid driving in this destruction manner.
Engaging in tasks like reaching for an object or dialing a phone, make you three times more likely to have a car accident. Busy commuters have no shortage of seemingly insignificant tasks to complete before they get to work in the morning or home from work in the evening.
They check email, put on makeup, drink their morning coffee, touch-up hair, or squeeze in a quick pre-work breakfast. In the evening, they make plans with texts or calls, or get themselves ready for post-work activities. Regardless of the task, neither their thoughts nor their eyes are on the road, which creates serious potential for accidents to occur.
Working adults are some of the most fatigued drivers on the road, and fatigue combined with stressful, rush-hour traffic conditions lead to accidents. Recent evidence suggests employees who work non-traditional hours, and thus are less likely to drive during rush hour, have lower all-around accident rates. Unfortunately, the majority of industries run on a 9 – 5 schedule, so avoiding the roads during rush hour may not be an option for most.
Make getting a solid night's sleep a priority if you often find yourself driving drowsily. Or, carpool with a friend or co-worker on your commute. Having one other passenger in the car is a great way to keep you awake and alert behind the wheel.
Whether you work in one of the 5 deadliest occupations in America, or you make your living sitting quietly at a computer in an office building, if you travel by automobile, your evening commute is likely the most dangerous thing you do all day. Stay safe on your commute by recognizing the potential dangers during rush hour, and taking steps to combat them.
Even taking preventative steps yourself can't always stop accidents from happening. Sometimes other drivers are to blame for car accidents. If you're ever injured in a car accident, our attorneys are here to help.

NFP Study to Investigate Victorian Suicides
A ground-breaking new Not for Profit study is set to examine every Victorian suicide over a two-year period to try to save the lives of people who may be at risk in the future.
Staff Reporter | 28 March 2013 at 10:18 am
Mental health Not for Profit beyondblue has joined forces with the Coroners Court of Victoria and The University of Melbourne to fund the study, investigating over 1000 confirmed suicides and other suspected suicide deaths that occurred between 2009 and 2010.
The study is reportedly costing $277,390 and will identify the frequency and nature of any contact these people had with health, housing and other services such as police, ambulance and health professionals before they died.
Beyondblue chief executive Kate Carnell said the findings would be used to enhance Victoria's suicide register, managed by the Coroners Court, to create a comprehensive map of the service pathways people used before their death.
"Any suicide is a tragic event and we know that in the lead up to their deaths, many people who take their lives often have contact with services or other agencies that act as pathways to health services," Carnell said.
"This study will reveal the sort of contact people had with these organisations in the 12 months before their deaths and why they made this contact.
"For the first time, we'll be able to get vital information on the pathways that people were on before they died.
"Understanding these pathways means agencies can help improve outcomes for at-risk people, who often experience depression or anxiety."
On average, 550 Victorians die from suicide each year, almost double the Victorian road toll in 2012.
Beyondblue says it hopes that the findings will be expanded nationally to try to save lives across the country.
Victorian State Coroner Judge Ian Gray said the study would also provide crucial information for coroners investigating suicide deaths.
"The role of coroners is to reduce preventable deaths and suicides are the second leading cause of deaths resulting from external injuries in Victoria and indeed Australia," he said.
"This information will be of immense assistance to coroners investigating these types of deaths and in particular, when they consider making prevention-focused recommendations in this area."
It is estimated that the study will take two years to complete with each death examined by a team of Coroners Court and University of Melbourne researchers.
One of the first tasks of the study will be to establish a working party made up of suicide prevention advocates and representatives from the health sector and other organisations.
"This project has the potential to offer significant new insights into how we as a community can be more aware and help to prevent suicides," Kate Carnell said.

We will refer you to our "Suicide Guidelines" on our website and in our opinion and our experience the two things that have contributed to Australia's high rate of suicide are "Poor Front Line Assessment" and "Refusal to Admit Early"

Most of us do teach basic behaviours and routines to our new dogs. But once the relationship stabilizes, we often allow our dogs to go on "auto-pilot." Consequently, response times for important behaviours can worsen; often a dog won't even respond. This degradation is simply a function of a lack of practice; if you play golf only once a year, you're going to stink at it, right?
Instead of "training then forgetting," keep your dog's established behaviours sharp by working them randomly and regularly, several times each day. "Sit" for dinner, "wait" at doors, "down" at the dog park; be spontaneous and unpredictable. Then, each month, teach a new behaviour—a trick will do—to keep your dog's mind and motivation up. The larger your pet's repertoire of behaviours, the smarter he or she gets, and the more important you become.
I see this often, especially among newbie owners with challenging dogs. The owner has taught a behaviour such as "sit," but, due to distractions, bad technique, or confusion on the dog's part, the pet fails to respond. The owner asks repeatedly until, after the sixth or seventh attempt, the dog halfheartedly sits. This stalling becomes a learned behaviour, one that's hard to break.
This often occurs with behaviours that haven't been fully proofed, or with one the dog doesn't particularly like to perform. Headstrong dogs, for instance, hate to lie down, as it is an admission of deference. Timid dogs also resist lying down, a position they might deem too unsafe.
rewards along the way while increasing praise. I make sitting, lying down, or coming when called the greatest things to do.
One other tip; after asking once without response, wait a moment, while looking your dog square in the eye and moving in a bit closer. Often this will be enough to get the dog to comply. Then praise!
Teaching new behaviours to a dog is a process of evolution, not revolution. The key is in knowing that it's usually going to take numerous sessions to perfect a new behaviour.
Time spent on a training session should reflect some positive result; as soon as you attain some obvious level of success, reward, then quit. Don't carry on and on, as you'll likely bore the dog, and actually condition it to become disinterested in the new behaviour. Likewise, don't end a session until some evidence of success is shown, even if it's a moment of focus or an attempt by the dog to try to perform. Remember that ten one-minute sessions in a day trump one ten-minute session every time.
If you teach Fluffy to "sit" in the quiet of your family room, that's the only place she will reliably sit. It's a mistake that many owners make; failing to generalize the new behaviour in different areas with varying conditions and levels of distraction will ensure spotty obedience at best.
To generalize a behaviour, first teach it at home with no distractions. Then, gradually increase distractions: turn the television on or have another person sit nearby. Once that's perfected, move out into the yard. Then add another person or dog. Gradually move on to busier environments until Fluffy will perform consistently, even on the corner of a busy city street. Only then will the behaviour be "proofed." This generalizing is especially vital when teaching the recall command, a behaviour that might one day save your dog's life. [For more information on reliable recall, go to moderndogmagazine.com/distract-me.
Treats are a great way to initiate a behaviour or to reinforce that behaviour intermittently later on. But liberal use of treats can often work against you. There can develop in the dog's mind such a fixation on food that the desired behaviour itself becomes compromised and focus on the owner diffused. Think of it: you'll rarely see hunting, agility, Frisbee, or law enforcement dogs being offered food rewards during training or job performance. Why? Because it would break focus and interfere with actual performance. Instead, other muses are found, including praise and, perhaps, brief play with a favourite toy. Most of all, reward for these dogs comes from the joy of the job itself.
Excessive emotion can put the brakes on Fluffy's ability to learn. Train with force, anger, or irritation and you'll intimidate her and turn training sessions into inquisitions. Likewise, train with hyperbolic energy, piercing squeals of delight, and over-the-top displays of forced elation, and you will stoke her energy levels far beyond what is needed to focus and learn.
I tell students to adopt a sense of "calm indifference"—a demeanor suggesting competence, and a sense of easy authority. A laid-back, loving, mentoring kind of energy that calms a dog, and fills it with confidence. If your dog goofs up, instead of flying off the handle, back off, and try again. Likewise, if she gets something right, instead of erupting with shrill pomp, just calmly praise her, smile, then move on. She will gradually imprint on this relaxed attitude and reflect it.
Dog training is a lot like the beautiful martial art of Tai Chi, with equal parts physical and philosophical. It takes timing, technique, and stamina, as well as a devotion to understanding the canine mind. It is not a skill that can be learned by watching one half-hour television show or from reading a few books. It takes time.
As a result, many dog owners have not yet mastered the timing and insight needed to train as capably as they might like. Like someone playing chess for the first time, they react to their opponent's moves instead of planning their own.
When you simply react to Fido's misbehaviours, you lose the opportunity to teach. Instead, practice your technique; anticipate his reactions ahead of time, becoming more proactive in the process. For example, if trying to quell a barking issue, instead of waiting for the barks to start, catch Fido right before his brain says "bark," and distract it into some other, more acceptable, behaviour. Know that whatever stimulus is causing the barking needs to be either eliminated or redefined as a "good thing" in the dog's head. This takes experience and a proactive role on your part.
Dogs need to feel that their mentors and providers are consistent in behaviour and in rule setting. If you vary training technique too much, especially in the beginning, you'll diminish your dog's ability to learn. For instance, if one day you stay patient with a stubborn dog, but the next day lose your cool, she won't be able to predict how you'll react at any given moment. This breaks confidence and trust. Instead, stick to a consistent methodology and be unswerving regarding what is suitable behaviour. For instance, if Fluffy isn't allowed on the bed, but you let it happen two times out of ten, that's inconsistent. Set rules and stick to them.
Loss of confidence is a weakness, and I think that, as natural predators, dogs can sense it instinctively. It's why frightened people get bitten more often than calmer individuals.
Show a lack of confidence and Fido will exploit it. That's not a condemnation of your pet; it's just a dog's nature. To avoid this, simply work him more and attain some training successes. Attending a class with him can work wonders to increase your confidence, as can you spending time with other dogs. Try trading dogs with a friend every so often for the different experience. Take your dog into different venues, and push yourself and your dog to learn more. Practice!
Every dog has a distinct personality and behavioural profile. Though breed helps determine this, the individual dog's character must be understood before training can succeed. As a trainer, you must determine what methods will work best with your dog.
For example, most retrievers are very sociable and can handle lots of people or dogs around them. But try this with a Chow Chow or Shiba Inu, and you may be in for a surprise. Likewise, a dog with a high food drive will respond to treats, while a dog with a low food drive may require a different muse. A shy dog will fare poorly with a robust training technique, whereas a swashbuckling dog might not even hear the gentle appeals coming from a trainer with a less hardy style. Think timid Toy Poodle versus rowdy Rottweiler.
challenged more than that timid dog. And know that, because of its size and strength, you simply must achieve control over it, especially in social situations. For dogs in between, reason out a training strategy based upon personality, size, age, energy, breed, and history.
If you stick to these basic guidelines, you'll slowly redefine yourself as the resident trainer, and not just your dog's concierge. Practice, succeed, be confident, and have fun with your protégé!

Richard Wolf GmbH Has Passed its MDR Audit!
AM-02-3
(Knittlingen, February 3, 2020) Richard Wolf GmbH has passed the DEKRA certification audit for the new EU Medical Device Regulation
The audit, which took place from January 27 to 29, confirmed that Richard Wolf GmbH is compliant with the MDR. This means that the long-standing global company based in Knittlingen, Baden-Württemberg, is among the first medical technology manufacturers to be ready for the introduction of the new European Medical Device Regulation (MDR, Regulation (EU) 2017/745), which comes into force in May 2020. During the MDR audit, which was carried out by DEKRA Certification GmbH as the notified body, Richard Wolf was able to demonstrate compliance in all relevant areas.
All European medical technology manufacturers will have to implement the new regulations as of May 26, 2020, when the three-year transition phase comes to an end and the new MDR becomes binding for all manufacturers. The MDR is replacing the former EU Medical Device Directive (MDD) and will apply to all products that come under Class I in the first instance. All other medical technology products can continue to be marketed under the existing MDD certification for the duration of the extended transition period (until May 2024).
Since the legislation was announced in 2017, an interdisciplinary MDR team has been working hard to implement the requirements promptly at Richard Wolf. The fact that the company is one of the first to pass the audit not only demonstrates Richard Wolf's performance capabilities, but also shows that customers around the world can rely on the company to continue to supply the products they need. Hospital operators and purchasing associations have recently been expressing legitimate concerns as to whether the industry will be able to ensure comprehensive security of supply, particularly as there is still an insufficient number of certified "notified bodies".
"The challenges relating to the new MDR regulations will continue. However, this audit result sends a strong signal to all of our customers and shows that Richard Wolf – a medium-sized company with a long and successful history – will continue to serve as a reliable partner for endoscopy, imaging, and OR integration in the future," say Co-CEOs Jürgen Pfab and Jürgen Steinbeck.
Richard Wolf GmbH is a medium-sized medical technology company with over 1,500 employees, along with sixteen subsidiaries and 130 foreign agencies worldwide. The company develops, produces, and distributes numerous products for endoscopy and extracorporeal shock wave treatment in human medicine. Integrated operating room systems round out the product range.

Pittsburgh-based Bastard Bearded Irishmen is one of the most entertaining and energetic live shows today. Their sound is an original, ferocious blend of traditional and contemporary Celtic music, mixed with punk, gypsy and high-energy rock n' roll.
Bastard Bearded Irishmen, or BBI, was originally intended to be a one-night-only tribute for a dear, departed friend. Jimmy Bastard and Ben Jaber shared a passion for Irish music and enlisted Dan Stocker on drums and Danny Rectenwald on mandolin to form the nucleus of the band.
What began as a tribute in local pubs, turned into three records, constant touring, and sharing the stage with everyone from The Rumjacks to Gogol Bordello. They have one of the best St. Patrick's Day shows in the country. They're hard-partying and always in good spirit. The group's lineup is rounded out by Paul Dvorchak on fiddle, Ryan Warmbrodt on rhythm guitar, and Sean-Paul Williams on bass.
Bastard Bearded Irishmen concerts are a non-stop barrage of party anthems, dancing tunes and maybe even the occasional whiskey-fueled ballad. The experience is always organic, and sometimes, unpredictable. Jimmy climbs the rafters and Danny jumps into the crowd. Maybe you get to do a solo. Who knows? Quite simply, the guys want you to have as much fun as they're having.
The band's third album, "Drinkin' to the Dead," will be released wide May 2018. It's a tribute to fallen friends and family, one of the reasons Bastard Bearded Irishmen formed in the first place; a respectful remembrance of those who have passed with an acceptance to go on and live your best life. Standout tracks include "Green Side of the Hill", "Drunken Drinkin'", the cover of "Dirty Old Town" by Ewan MacColl and the epic ending and album-titled "Drinkin' to the Dead."
"Drinkin' to the Dead" is full of surprises and new stretches for the band. The album further demonstrates that Bastard Bearded Irishmen is not just a St. Patrick's Day band.
One other special note: this is first album where mandolinist and background vocalist Danny Rectenwald steps out to lead vocals on four tracks. Jimmy Bastard still leads vocals and is the principal songwriter on the remaining songs.
Bastard Bearded Irishmen is sponsored by Jameson Irish Whiskey and Iron City Beer.
