R.I.P.: Marc Wilkofsky
Pretty stunning news today as word has been going around that Marc Wilkofsky has passed away at the very young age of 42. Details are unavailable.
Wilco, as he was known, got his start in comics as a copy editor at Wizard magazine, a period remembered here by former Wizard staffer Andrew Kardon. (That's Wilco as Green Arrow in the below Wizard staff Halloween photo. With his indie sensibilities and love of soap operas, Wizard wasn't the best fit for Marc, and after leaving he found a job at Soap Opera Digest where he seemed to be happy as could be. Around this time (the late '90s on) Marc joined the New York Chapter of Friends of Lulu, the organization for women in comics, and was a tireless organizing force, winning the Lulu award for Volunteer of the Year in 2005.
In recent years, Marc was a regular at the monthly NYC Comic Jams, and that group is mourning his death today.
Through it all, I doubt there is a single person who ever met Marc who would not agree that he was one of the sweetest, kindest, gentlest people on the face of the earth. He always tried to stay upbeat even when life dealt him reverses, supported everyone around him with kind words, and through all his quirks (he was a copy editor, after all) remained a good soul. I am so shocked at his early passing, and I hope he got some of the happiness that he deserved in life.
Too much death this year…

Thanks for sharing this and letting the world know about Marc's passing. He truly was one of a kind.
Edward Douglas 11/25/2012 4:47 pm At 4:47 pm
Well said, as always, Heidi. Really shocked and saddened by the news.

As you said. One of the sweetest, kindest, gentlest people I've met. Sad loss.
Lord Garth 11/25/2012 6:09 pm At 6:09 pm
Haha. Wizard wasn't the best fit for Marc? Wizard was the PERFECT fit for Marc as he loved comics, loved editing, and loved managing the magazine's Trailer Park column.
Of Marc and Wizard I will only say this: He deserved better.
Charlie Boatner 11/25/2012 7:01 pm At 7:01 pm
I think Marc would have liked your post, Heidi. Thank you!
Marion 11/25/2012 7:03 pm At 7:03 pm
Marc really was one of the sweetest, kindest, and gentlest souls I've ever met. He was so hardworking for Friends of Lulu, and really made every convention nicer. I'm so surprised and sad to hear this news today. I wish I had thanked him and made him feel valued more–the way he made everyone around him feel.
dave roman 11/25/2012 8:02 pm At 8:02 pm
This really is a loss to the entire world. Marc was such a giving, selfless individual.
Jenny Gonzalez-Blitz 11/25/2012 8:11 pm At 8:11 pm
I've just read of this news and am very surprised and saddened to learn of this. Marc was always a very kind-hearted person when I saw or spoke to him. I'm sorry to hear of this, and know he will be missed around the comics folks of NYC.
Matt Hawkins 11/25/2012 9:15 pm At 9:15 pm
Marc was, without question, the most kind-hearted, giving, gentlest individuals I've had the pleasure to become friends with. His contributions to the local New York comics scene cannot be emphasized enough.
Again, thanks for the write-up Heidi. I'm glad he's being remembered in such a fashion, and I have a feeling that many of us will be swapping favorite Marc stories for a very long time to come, which I'm sure he would appreciated.
Jimmy Palmiotti 11/25/2012 11:19 pm At 11:19 pm
I am gonna miss that guy. Always had something nice to say, loved comics and the people in the business and always wore a genuine smile. Rest in Peace Marc…you will be missed.
Cheese 11/26/2012 12:23 am At 12:23 am
Marc was more then just a regular attendee to our regular jams, he was an integral part of the mix that make them what they are. On a personal note, he was some ways was the reason I keep them going. I feel we touched him in some very personal ways and vice vera. I will miss him deeply. We will have a more in depth comment tomorrow on http://houseof12.tumblr.com. I wish him well on his adventures across the universe, wherever that may take him.
Allan Rosenberg 11/26/2012 10:35 am At 10:35 am
Marc was one of our shining stars in the Ramapo
High School Comic Book Club and helped make the Ramapo High Comic Con the success that it was. We kept in touch for many years while he was at Wizard. It was always great to see him at a comic show. His beaming smile will be so missed.
Rob Allstetter 11/27/2012 12:50 am At 12:50 am
Marc was the editor I worked with most frequently during my "Trailer Park" days for Wizard. Always encouraging in even the most stressful of situations, he genuinely cared about every word and every fact, and you couldn't ask for more from an editor.
Jamal Igle 11/30/2012 10:41 am At 10:41 am
I just heard about this. I hadn't seen Marc in years but your right, he was a sweet , sweet man.
Isabella Bannerman 12/01/2012 9:53 am At 9:53 am
I knew Marc from Friends of Lulu and am very sorry to hear he has passed. He was really kind, interesting and friendly person.

I was a student at Rutgers University at the same time as Marc. I was so surprised to hear this news about him. I was an upperclassmen on his floor at Clothier Hall when he arrived as a freshman and I still remember his first day. He arrived with his parents and was so excited and nervous. Coincidentally, his roommate's name was also Marc.
I have seen Marc several times throughout the years and know how much he talked about Soap Opera Digest. I hope he is at peace now.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A North Carolina mall is making some changes this Christmas season. Santa's tree is being replaced with a giant ice glacier and there will be no more tree-lighting ceremony.
The Charlotte Observer reported that SouthPark Mall in Charlotte is implementing the new changes in an effort to make visiting Santa "fresh and exciting."
"The reinvented and modernized experience will bring the Charlotte community together in a way that hasn't been done before," the mall said, according to the paper.
The mall is among the first wave of Simon malls to get one of the giant fake glaciers. It's an addition that the mall said is meant to create a "magical experience" for families.

REAL LUXURY
is seeking...
Well-Known Sweetwater Retailer Bobby Todd Antiques, LLC, to Relocate to Todd Richesin's "UPSTAIRS" Knoxville Location at 4514 Kingston Pike
Well-known Sweetwater gift and antique shop Bobby Todd Antiques is relocating to its sister store, "UPSTAIRS" at 4514 Old Kingston Pike, in Knoxville.
Bobby Brown and Todd Richesin announced today that they will be moving the store following the sale of their current building in Sweetwater, initially opening a "Pop-up Shop" for Bobby Todd in late summer, and then transforming the UPSTAIRS location fully to Bobby Todd for the opening of their much-anticipated Bobby Todd Christmas Shop in October.
Situated in the iconic "Up and Down Service Station," UPSTAIRS is located at 4514 Old Kingston Pike in the heart of the Bearden district, at the intersection of Kingston Pike and Lyons View Pike.
Bobby and Todd are thrilled with their plans to relocate.
"This is something we have been dreaming about for some time," said Richesin.
"We want to consolidate our efforts and return to our original Bobby Todd mission statement, which involves really focusing on each and every product we offer, making sure it is right for our brand," said Brown.
Bobby Todd was founded on the idea that the shop would be an extension of the way Bobby and Todd live in their own home. They have since moved from their original loft space in Knoxville's historic Old City, to a gracious European-style country home in West Knoxville, but their current home embodies their dream of the way people should live.
"Classic, stylish, and comfortable – those are the key elements to creating the perfect backdrop for living your life," Brown said.
Bobby and Todd have been committed to Downtown Sweetwater since starting their business there 15 years ago, and because of that commitment, they have hand-selected the buyer for their building.
"Sweetwater is our hometown, so we are excited by the opportunity to fill our former Sweetwater building with a like-minded, creative retailer who will contribute to the unique personality and fabric of the historic downtown area," Richesin said.
"The new owner is someone who is just as committed to Downtown Sweetwater as we have been and will carry antiques, gift items, and will also offer interior design services," Brown said.
The transition between Bobby Todd and the new building owner will be seamless, with the new owner planning to re-open in September.
The transformation from UPSTAIRS to Bobby Todd will be a great opportunity for shoppers! Most every item at Bobby Todd will be greatly reduced.
"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for our customers to take advantage of incredible savings," said Richesin.
Fixtures, store decorations, and inventory will be offered at greatly reduced prices.
Bobby and Todd are really excited about this new start.
"It is giving us a chance to focus on our core values again, and how we really want our customers to experience our own personal style," says Brown.
Bobby and Todd have a gift of blending seamlessly and effortlessly the new with the old. Their lifestyle brand encompasses not only actual furniture pieces, art, and accessories; but also more experiential aspects of a home's ambience, like scent, sound, and holiday décor that really make the difference between a house and a home.
"Home is incredibly important to both of us," Richesin said. "It is where we relax, recharge, and ultimately find inspiration. We want our customers to find that same inspiration in their own homes. Bringing Bobby Todd to Knoxville in the most prominent and convenient of locations is a great way to reach more people and make a bigger impact on the lives of our customers."
The move is also consistent with current retail models.
"Consumers want more unique items," said Richesin. "Gone are the day of cookie cutter interiors Focusing on vintage, one-of-a-kind, and antique pieces in our Knoxville location will reinforce our unique brand."
"There is a tremendous interest in customers wanting to express themselves through their homes, just as they do through their clothing and appearance," said Brown. "Our products will be tailored to this spirit of individuality. Bobby Todd in Knoxville will be the only place to get these unique pieces."
Brown's and Richesin's UPSTAIRS location at 4514 Kingston Pike – with lower-level space that will remain the offices of Todd Richesin Interiors – has been the recipient of several Keep Knoxville Beautiful Orchid Awards.

Our interdisciplinary research explores how pathways to sustainability, green transformations and equitable access to resources such as land, water and food can be achieved and help us meet the environmental as well as human development-related goals of the UN Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development.
Our work builds on a long tradition of critical social science engagement with environmental issues and resource politics in collaboration with partners globally. It explores how pathways to sustainability are shaped by political-economic and social processes, and understands how they are driven by technology, markets, states and citizens. Our research sheds new light on how we can achieve green transformations that move us from fossil fuel to renewable energy, from throw-away to circular economies. It addresses the politics of sustainability, and understands how transformations occur at local levels as well as global, in both rural and urban settings, and be led by citizens as well as national governments. In doing so, it shines a light on how sustainable resource use, consumption and production is shaped by issues such as gender, livelihoods and politics.
Stay up to date with our research, events, teaching and professional development opportunities.

Thierry Malandain
Johan Morin Yocom copy
The author of 80-plus dance works, Thierry Malandain was born on 13 April 1959 in Petit-Quevilly. Before his career as a performer with the Opéra de Paris, the Ballet du Rhin and the Ballet Théâtre Français de Nancy, he was taught by Monique Le Dily, René Bon, Daniel Franck, Gilbert Mayer and Raymond Franchetti. During these six years in Lorraine, he enjoyed success with his first experiences as a choreographer: in 1984, he won first prize in the Concours Volinine with Quatuor op3; then in 1985 and 1986, succeeding Maguy Marin, he won first prize at the Concours de Nyon, Switzerland, with Sonatine then Métamorphosis. In 1986, Thierry Malandain left the Ballet Théâtre Français de Nancy with eight dancers and founded Compagnie Temps Présent, which settled in Élancourt. The very next season, he was awarded prizes by the Fondation de la Vocation and the Fondation Oulmont, and won also first prizes in the choreography competitions of La Baule and Vaison-la-Romaine; and in Paris, with Angelin Preljocaj and Claude Brumachon, won the Prix de la Nuit des Jeunes Créateurs. At the invitation of Jean-Louis Pichon, director of what would become L'Esplanade in Saint-Etienne, Cie Temps Présent held a residency there from 1991-1997. Then, in 1997, the choreographer received a proposal from the Ministry of Culture and Communication and the City of Biarritz to found, in the Basque seaside resort, the first-ever classical-style National Choreography Centre (CCN). In September of the following year, the Centre Choreographique National - Ballet Biarritz came to life in the converted Gare du Midi train station. Starting in 2000, Thierry Malandain headed the festival Le Temps d'Aimer for five years, returning as artistic director in 2008. In 2003, with Les Créatures, to music by Ludwig van Beethoven, Ballet Biarritz reached a major creative milestone: for the first time, thanks to Dominique Hervieu and José Montalvo, the company performed officially in Paris (at the Théâtre National de Chaillot); while in Moscow, Les Créatures was a Benois de la Danse nominee, and in Cuba received the critics' award at the 19th International Ballet Festival of Havana. In 2005 and 2006, Malandain created Les Petits Riens (2005) to music by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart; and Don Juan (2006) to a score by Christoph Willibald Gluck; and, to music by Alfred Schnittke, he produced his first commission for the Ballet de l'Opéra National de Paris, L'Envol d'Icare (2006). In August 2009, Thierry Malandain was promoted to the rank of Officer in France's Order of Arts and Letters. A new era began for the choreographer, with a renamed company: Malandain Ballet Biarritz. Then came Magifique (2009), to music by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky; and Roméo et Juliette (2010), to music by Hector Berlioz. In 2012, the Opéra de Reims commissioned a ballet from Thierry Malandain; given carte blanche, the choreographer took the chance to explore another musical world, creating Une Dernière chanson set to traditional French songs performed by Vincent Dumestre's ensemble Le Poème Harmonique. This piece earned the Grand Prix (dance category) of the Syndicat de la Critique Théâtre, Musique et Danse. In 2013, at the request of Laurent Brunner, director of the Opéra Royal de Versailles, the choreographer created Cendrillon to Sergei Prokofiev's score; Cendrillon received a warm critical and popular reception and, in 2014 in Berlin, the piece earned Thierry Malandain the best choreographer prize at the Taglioni European Ballet Awards, bestowed by the Malakhov Foundation. In 2017, after the performances of his new piece Noé at Chaillot-Théâtre National de la Danse, Malandain Ballet Biarritz received the best company award bestowed by the Association Professionnelle de la Critique de Théâtre, de Musique et de Danse. In 2019, Thierry Malandain was appointed to the Académie des Beaux-Arts (choreography section) alongside Blanca Li and Angelin Prejlocaj. In 2020, he was awarded the Prix SACD for choreography.

Thierry Malandain's main source of inspiration is music: his choregraphy flows from the composer's intentions, and from the emotions and feelings he experiences while listening.

Ilmari R.Salminen (Elimäki, 21 de setembro de 1902 - Kouvola, 5 de janeiro de 1986) foi um atleta finlandês, campeão dos 10.000 m nos Jogos Olímpicos de Berlim de 1936.

É um dos maiores fundistas dos anos 1930, integrante do grupo de grandes corredores de seu país conhecido como Finlandeses Voadores.

Depois de correr longas distâncias apenas na Finlândia, Imari começou sua carreira internacional já com mais de trinta anos, vencendo os 10.000 m e conseguindo o bronze nos 5.000 m do primeiro Campeonato Europeu de Atletismo, disputado em Turim, Itália, em 1934. Com  este resultado, ele se tornou um dos principais favoritos para os Jogos de Berlim em 1936.

Em Berlim ele começou sua participação conseguindo um sexto lugar nos 5.000 m. No dia seguinte, na disputa dos 10.000 contra outros finlandeses como Volmari Iso-Hollo, bicampeão olímpico dos 3.000 com obstáculos, Salminem ganharia a prova e a medalha de ouro por apenas 0,2 s de vantagem para o segundo colocado.

No ano seguinte, Salminem quebrou o recorde mundial dos 10.000 m marcando 30m05s para a distância e da prova não-olímpica de seis milhas. Ele encerrou sua carreira em 1939 após conquistar no ano anterior o bicampeonato dos 10.000 m no Campeonato Europeu de Atletismo.

Foi recordista mundial dos 10000 metros entre 1937 e 1938.

Bitumen is a naturally occurring, highly viscous hydrocarbon contained within the oil sands deposits. Bitumen is usually solid at room temperature and has a tar-like consistency. It must be diluted or heated to flow through pipelines because it does not flow freely.
Like crude oil, Bitumen is made up of hydrocarbons, but it also contains more carbon than hydrogen, and more impurities such as nitrogen, Sulphur and heavy metals. Impurities must be removed and the carbon-hydrogen imbalance must be corrected in order to produce synthetic crude oil.
The hot-water process is used to extract bitumen from oil sand. Mined oil sand contains 10 to 12% bitumen and the rest is made up of mineral matter and water.
The oil sand is mixed with water in a processing drum or pipeline during the hot-water process. Bitumen float upwards when droplets of bitumen separate from the grains of sand and attach themselves to small air bubbles.
A mixture called slurry is created and it is sent to the separation vessels where bitumen-rich froth is skimmed from the top. Coarse sand is pumped to disposal sites when it is settled.
88-95% of bitumen mined in oil sands is recovered. Bitumen extracted from the oil sands require extra processing or upgrading before it can be turned into products such as fuel and sold to refineries. Bitumen is upgraded by coking the bitumen and by hydro-processing, or a combination of the two.
Coking bitumen involves removing carbon from the fractions of bitumen. It also involves thermally cracking the heavy fractions at 468 to 498 degrees Celsius to product lighter fractions and petroleum coke.
Hydro-processing bitumen involves adding hydrogen. It offers higher liquid yields, better distillate qualities and lower emission levels of Sulphur dioxide compared to coking, but at a much higher expense.
Crude oil is turned into final products for consumers and industrial use in refineries. These produces include fuels such as gasoline, diesel, kerosene and consumer products such as oil lubricants and asphalt.
Why is a Pipeline Important?
Crude oil from the Alberta oil sands is commonly transported to US and Canadian refineries by pipeline. A pipeline transports gas and oil from remote producing regions to Canada and the United State's more populated areas.
Pipelines are a safe way of transporting gas and oil over long distances and also the most practical way to deliver oil and gas.
Pipelines are important because Canadians rely on natural gas and products made from crude oil to meet more than two-thirds of their energy needs every day. Pipelines are the energy lifelines of almost every activity of daily life. Natural resources like crude oil and natural gases are consumed daily.
Pipelines are an important industry to Canada's economy, providing jobs and tax revenues. Pipelines are expected to add $175 billion to Canada's economy over the next 30 years.
Plainsman Manufacturing manufactures and distributes products for oilfield production, pipeline maintenance, automated emergency shut down, construction and gas, and water distribution. Over the past 50 years, we have built a solid distribution base that includes oilfield supply stores, PC pump suppliers, OEM's, chemical pump and instrumentation companies and utility companies in Western Canada.

Lessons of March Madness: Don't Sit on a Lead
It's the holiday season for hoops fans in the States as the conference tournaments come to a climax this weekend and folks are getting ready to fill out their NCAA basketball tournament brackets. March Madness begins. If you've watched college ball (or just about any other team sport) for any length of time, you've seen the following happen. A great team surges to an early lead and then tries to slow down the game to run out the clock. What usually happens? They lose.
In switching from offense to protecting the lead, the team loses their natural rhythm and misses plays on both sides of the ball that they were making earlier in the game. Lately, I've been hearing stories from clients of successful executives who do the same thing. It's the corporate version of sitting on the lead and, in the end, losing the game.
Here's the scenario. A leader with a strong track record for decisiveness and getting things done is promoted through the ranks until they reach the holy grail – a vice president level position or whatever the executive level equivalent is in their organization. The formerly decisive, get it done leader slows things down, asks for more and more information, micromanages to a fare thee well or maybe even becomes less visible in the organization rather than more.
What is going on? Why would they suddenly do this?
It's simple. They begin doubting themselves and their judgment once they reach the big dance. The confidence that brought them there is replaced with that little voice inside their head that says, "Hey, you've made it this far. This is everything you've ever worked for. Don't blow it. Protect the lead." And that's when everyone else – up, down and sideways – in the organization starts saying, "What happened to him or her?"
How do you keep this from happening to you? Here's a suggestion from an unlikely source. It comes from Donovan Campbell a former Marine squad leader in Iraq who has written an acclaimed memoir, Joker One . While most organizational leaders are not in the literal life and death situations that Campbell experienced, the lessons he learned as a Marine lieutenant seem to apply at some level. Here's an excerpt:
"You can't think of home, you can't miss your wife, and you can't wonder how it would feel to take a round through the neck. You can only pretend that you're already dead and thus free yourself up to focus on three things: 1) finding and killing the enemy, 2) communicating the situation and resulting actions to adjacent units and higher headquarters, and 3) triaging and treating your wounded. If you love your men, you naturally think about number three first, but if you do you're wrong. The grim logic of combat dictates that numbers one and two take precedence."
The line that really hits me from Campbell is "You can only pretend that you're already dead and thus free yourself to focus…" In other words, you have to keep playing offense. You have to keep leading and leaning in. Coming to terms with the idea that your position (whether it's your executive job or the lead in a game) isn't a permanent one, can give you the freedom and confidence you need to show up at your best.
What's your take? What do you do to maintain your leadership presence when the pressure is on?

Foreign Relations of the United States, 1964–1968, Volume II, Vietnam, January–June 1965
Document 337
337. Telegram From the Commander, Military Assistance Command, Vietnam (Westmoreland) to the Joint Chiefs of Staff 1
Saigon, June 7, 1965, 11:35 a.m.
MAC JOO 19118. Subj: US troop deployment to SVN (S). Ref: A. COMUSMACV 041133Z notal; B. JCS 2343 564–7; C. COMUSMACV 260040Z May notal; D. USASCV USG 65–TS 101 311200Z May notal; E. CINCPAC 052249Z (PASEP); F. COMUSMACV 201207Z May 65.2
As indicated Ref A, a broad review of force requirements has been conducted in light of the changing situation in Southeast Asia and within RVN.
There are indications that the conflict in Southeast Asia is in the process of moving to a higher level. Some PAVN forces have entered SVN and more may well be on the way. Additional jet fighters and some jet light bombers have been deployed in the DRV.
Specifically, elements of the 325th PAVN division are in the northern zone of II Corps. It is quite possible that the major portion, if not all of the division is now deployed in the Kontum, Pleiku, Phu Bon area. Elements of the 304th PAVN division are suspected to be in the panhandle and, therefore, capable of following the 325th. The recent heavy actions in Phuoc Long and Quang Ngai, and VC initiatives in Pleiku, Kontum, Phu Bon and Thua Thien are demonstrations of VC strength and their apparent determination to employ their forces aggressively. Recent events as well as captured VC prisoners and documents suggest that a summer campaign is now underway to destroy government forces and concurrently, to first isolate and then attack district and province towns.
So far the VC have not employed their full capabilities in this campaign. Only two of the nine Viet Cong regiments have been heavily engaged (one in Phuoc Long and one in Quang Ngai), and probably only a similar proportion of their separate battalions has been committed. In most engagements, VC main force units have displayed improved training and discipline, heavier firepower from the new family of weapons with which most main force units have been equipped, and a willingness to take heavy losses in order to achieve objectives.
In pressing their campaign, the Viet Cong are capable of mounting regimental-size operations in all four ARVN Corps areas, and at least battalion-sized attacks in virtually all provinces. Known dispositions indicate major actions are likely in the near future in the Binh Duong-Phuoc Thanh-Phuoc Long area north of Saigon, in the Quang Ngai-Quang Tin area in Central Vietnam, and in Kontum, Pleiku, Phu Bon and Binh Dinh Provinces. Major attacks could occur also in other areas; the Viet Cong have shown that they are capable of concentrating in regimental strength with little or no warning. Whether or not the 304th Div is in, or moving toward SVN, the DRV has a "doorstep" capability to reinforce the VC with sizable forces.
ARVN forces on the other hand are already experiencing difficulty in coping with this increased VC capability. Desertion rates are inordinately high. Battle losses have been higher than expected; in fact, four ARVN battalions have been rendered ineffective by VC action in the I and II Corps zones. Therefore, effective fighting strength of many infantry and ranger battalions is unacceptably low. As a result, ARVN troops are beginning to show signs of reluctance to assume the offensive and in some cases their steadfastness under fire is coming into doubt. In order to bring existing battalions up to acceptable battlefield strength, it will be necessary to declare at least a temporary moratorium on the activation of new battalions. Thus, the GVN VC force ratios upon which we based our estimate of the situation in March have taken an adverse trend. You will recall that I recommended the deployment of a U.S. division in II Corps to cover the period of the RVNAF buildup and to weigh the force ratios in that important area. We assumed at that time that the ARVN battalions would be brought to full strength by now and that the force buildup would proceed on schedule. Neither of these assumptions has materialized.
The problem of low battlefield strength in ARVN has forced us to plan the use of personnel now training in 11 new battalions as fillers for old battalions. In effect, these 11 battalions will be deferred and during the period from mid-July to early November no new ARVN battalions will become available. Thus the gap to be filled is both deeper and wider.
In summary, the force ratios continue to change in favor of the VC. I believe that the DRV will commit whatever forces it deems necessary to tip the balance and that the GVN cannot stand up successfully to this kind of pressure without reinforcement. Even if DRV VC intentions are debatable, their capabilities must be acknowledged and faced. Additionally, it is prudent to consider possible enemy air action, leading to [Page 735] significant escalation and a broadening of the arena of conflict. We must be prepared to face such a contingency.3
In order to cope with the situation outlined above, I see no course of action open to us except to reinforce our efforts in SVN with additional U.S. or third country forces as rapidly as is practical during the critical weeks ahead. Additionally, studies must continue and plans developed to deploy even greater forces, if and when required, to attain our objectives or counter enemy initiatives. Ground forces deployed to selected areas along the coast and inland will be used both offensively and defensively. U.S. ground troops are gaining experience and thus far have performed well. Although they have not yet engaged the enemy in strength, I am convinced that U.S. troops with their energy, mobility, and firepower can successfully take the fight to the VC. The basic purpose of the additional deployments recommended below is to give us a substantial and hard hitting offensive capability on the ground to convince the VC that they cannot win.
In sub-paragraph "A" below, deployments and actions are recommended on which decisions should be made now. In subpara "B" we have identified further actions on which planning should start and on which separate recommendations will be forthcoming:
Actions recommended:
Deploy at once to I CTZ the remaining two BLTs of the 3d Mar Div and appropriate supporting division and air elements (approximately 8,000 personnel). Reconstitute the SLF as a floating reserve.
Deploy balance of increment 1 and all of increment 2 (as defined in Ref C) of army logistic and other support units in accordance with schedule set out in Ref D. (Approximately 8,000 personnel.)
Deploy the US Army Air Mobile Division (and logistic increment 3) through Qui Nhon to An Ke, Pleiku and Kontum (approximately 21,000 personnel). Qui Nhon will be ready to receive the division approximately 1 August, upon the closure of increment 2 forces.
Concurrently with the Air Mobile Division, deploy I Corps Headquarters (approximately 1,500 personnel).
Deploy the ROK Marine RCT to Cam Ranh Bay as soon after 1 July as the unit can be readied for movement (approximately 4,000 personnel). Deploy balance of the ROK Division force (approximately 14,500 personnel) plus US logistic increment 4 (1,500 personnel), starting 15 September to the general area of Qui Nhon. (This answers Ref E in part—separate message on F86F will follow.)4
Deploy additional tactical fighter squadrons to Cam Ranh Bay when expeditionary landing field complete at that location. Also provide naval aircraft carrier support of in-country operations as required; we believe this latter will engage one carrier full time.
Hold the 173d Airborne Brigade in-country until the Air Mobile Division has deployed and is ready for operations.
Continue air attacks against the DRV. (Ref F applies.)
Additional deployment that may be required and on which planning should begin:
Three U.S. Army Hawk battalions to TN Bien Hoa, Qui Nhon and Cam Ranh in that priority.
The remainder of the 1st Infantry Division or the 101st Airborne Division begining 1 October.
One additional MAB to reinforce the III MAF.
Tactical air units for support of increased U.S. force (additional airfields in SVN and Thailand may be required).
Required combat and logistic support forces to include helicopter units to support the foregoing.

In telegram 2873 to Saigon, June 11, the Department of State noted that INR and CIA had assessed the military appraisal of the situation in South Vietnam provided in telegram 19118. While agreeing that it was serious, the intelligence analysts questioned the implication that there was a serious danger of complete military collapse within a relatively short period of time. This impression, the Department noted, was not supported by reporting from Saigon, and telegram 19118 did not reinforce the impression with reference to a dramatic or unexpected development in the military situation.

Admiral Sharp added his comments on these proposals in CINCPAC telegrams 072325Z to JCS, June 7, and 112210Z to JCS, June 11. Sharp concurred in Westmoreland's assessment of the deteriorating military situation in Vietnam and agreed on the necessity of expanded deployment of U.S. forces to meet the threat. He expressed apprehension, however, over the proposed deployment of the U.S. Air Mobile Division to the central highlands. Sharp argued that limited U.S. combat forces should be used to secure the more populous coastal areas of South Vietnam.

Research and development spending has become increasingly important over the last two decades. Despite this, the South African business community has largely ignored the South African accounting standard for research and development costs, AC 122, issued in 1994. A review of the comments received from a number of respondents to the exposure draft to AC 122 and it's international equivalent, lAS 9 (revised), suggests that the implementation difficulties associated with AC 122 are the major reason for the apparent lack of acceptance of AC 122 by the local accounting profession and industry. This research attempts to identify these implementation concerns, specifically in relation to the pharmaceutical industry, so as to provide guidance for implementing AC 122 in this industry. From an analysis performed of AC 122 and the responses of a number of members of the local and global business community, three main implementation problems associated with AC 122 were identified. These are (a) the appropriate allocation of R & D costs between research costs and development costs, (b) implementing the requirement to capitalise development costs, and (c) determining the most appropriate method and time period for amortising a development asset. The identification of these problems also highlighted that AC 122 is deficient in implementation guidance and requires the exercise of an unusually high level of subjective judgement. This study illustrates that it is possible to develop guidelines for overcoming the problems identified in the pharmaceutical industry. This research also provides an approach for similar research in other R & D intensive industries. However, the time and cost of performing such an exercise is likely to limit the industry approach to accounting for R & D costs. The research led to the conclusion that the accounting standard for research and development costs in South Africa is difficult to apply consistently in practice, and requires amendment if it is to obtain the support of the accountancy profession and commerce.

I. The requirement of Rule 55(c) EPC regarding "an indication of ... the evidence" is fulfilled if the evidence concerned (in this case a citation) is clearly specified in the notice of opposition and if it is clearly stated which alleged facts it is intended to prove. Assessing the evidence (in this case determining whether the citation constitutes a prior publication) is part of the process of ascertaining whether the opposition is well founded in substance.
2. Without infringing Articles 102(3) or 113(2) or Rule 58 EPC the Opposition Division can - and in certain circumstances must - decide to maintain the patent on the basis of a subordinate auxiliary request by the patent proprietor if the latter pursues a main request plus non-allowable auxiliary requests which precede one which is allowable.
3. Where the EPC does not lay down unambiguously the procedure to be followed in a given situation (in this case when main and auxiliary requests have been submitted), use of an incorrect procedure does not, as long as no established case law exists on the matter, constitute a substantial procedural violation justifying reimbursement of the appeal fee.( cf. decision T 156/84, OJ EPO 1988, 372, point 3.13 of the Reasons).
IV. Rejection of a request (in this case auxiliary requests 2.3 and 2.5) without any reason being given in the decision itself or at least in a preceding communication referred to therein (Rule 68(2) EPC) constitutes a substantial procedural violation justifying a reimbursement of the appeal fee (Rule 67 EPC).

J 0032/95
I. The appellants are proprietors of European patent No. 0 002 811 (application No. 78 101 805.6) comprising eight claims and granted on 24 February 1982. The application was filed on 21 December 1978 claiming the priority of 27 December 1977 (priority document AT 9305/77).
II. The respondents (opponents) filed opposition on 15 November 1982.
III. In the course of the opposition proceedings the appellants asked that the opposition be rejected as inadmissible on the grounds that a document cited by the opponents (DE-A-2 632 700) (D3) had been published after the priority date of the contested patent. This document could be cited only against the subordinate claims, not against Claim 1. Since the opposition was against the patent in its entirety and this document was an indispensable element in the respondents' argument, the opposition was based on unallowable evidence and for this reason alone should be rejected as inadmissible. Moreover, the respondents had cited another document (DE-A- 2 615 157) (D4), which was by no means short, without any indication of the relevant passages. The information provided by the respondents in connection with this document was not sufficient for the appellants to be able satisfactorily to consider the respondents' argument in so far as it referred to the citation. This was another reason for rejecting the opposition as inadmissible.
IV. Following oral proceedings and some correspondence the appellants, on 12 June 1985, finally filed a main request and seven auxiliary requests.
V. In a communication under Rule 58(4) EPC dated 17 July 1985 the Opposition Division informed the parties that it intended to maintain the European patent in the wording contained in the appellants' auxiliary request 2.7, stating further:
- "The patent can be maintained as amended only if the patent proprietors make their auxiliary request 2.7 filed on 12 June 1985 the main request, since the Opposition Division in arriving at such a decision is bound by the text submitted or agreed by the patent proprietor, which must always be the main request (Article 113(2) EPC).
- To expedite the proceedings the Opposition Division is basing a Rule 58(4) communication on auxiliary request 2.7. If within the period laid down in Rule 58(4) EPC the patent proprietors raise no objection to the text in which the patent is to be maintained, it will be assumed that they have made auxiliary request 2.7 of 12 June 1985 into their main request. If the patent proprietors do object, the Opposition Division will deliver a decision on the main request, which will then be valid under Article 102 EPC." The above communication also referred the parties to Legal Advice from the EPO No. 15/84 (OJ EPO 1984, 491).
VI. In their reply the appellants declined to make auxiliary request 2.7 the main request, arguing essentially as follows: Agreement of all the versions of the claims proposed in the main and auxiliary requests was implicit in the fact of their submission, even if this applied to the auxiliary requests only in the event of preceding requests being rejected, for example as the result of a decision. Claims did not have to be expressly agreed. The two terms "submitted" and "agreed" in Article 113(2) were linked not by the word "and" but by the conjunction "or", which expressed an alternative. Article 113(2) EPC could not be read as meaning that the text submitted or agreed always had to be the subject of a main or a single request. Article 113 applied equally to the departments of first and second instance; and, as a number of appeal decisions showed, it was considered beyond dispute that different versions - all to be regarded as "submitted" in the meaning of Article 113(2) - could be put forward as main and auxiliary requests in appeal proceedings, with the Board of Appeal then taking them in order but delivering one decision only (T 169/83, OJ EPO 1985, 193 and in particular pp. 195 and 198, point 1). There were, therefore, several texts that had been submitted and agreed and in respect of which the patent proprietors merely reserved the right, should one of the auxiliary requests be allowed but not the main request, to pursue any preceding requests in appeal proceedings. Moreover it was not merely in the patent proprietors' legal interest that a reasoned, appealable decision should be delivered concerning the various requests. They were positively entitled to such a decision. If one takes the view that an applicant or patent proprietor who wishes to have a claim of the broadest possible scope considered in appeal proceedings may only submit this one claim and must first allow it to be rejected by the department of first instance, it would mean that any auxiliary requests, among which as in the present case one is generally found to be allowable, would not have the benefit of scrutiny at two levels of jurisdiction because they would be put only before the appeal body.
VII. In a decision dated 20 May 1986 the Opposition Division ruled the opposition admissible because it complied with all the requirements of Article 99 and Rule 55 EPC and because none of the arguments adduced by the patent proprietors could be considered sound.
It reasoned as follows: - No EPC provision required that, for an opposition to be admissible, the argument in support of opposition must be conclusive in itself.
- The citation which had been published during the priority period was published prior art for those parts of the application not covered by the priority document.
- The citation - referred to in its entirety - was short, so that a skilled person could rapidly extract the technical information relevant to the patent in question.
VIII. The Opposition Division revoked the patent on the grounds - set out in detail - that the subject-matter of the claims forming the object of the main request did not involve an inventive step in view of US-A-3 895 639 (D1) and IEEE Transactions on Bio-Medical Engineering, Vol. BME-18, No. 3, May 1971 (New York), and G. Silverman et al. "A programmable parallel timing system", pp. 201-205 (D2).
IX. Points IV and V of the Reasons for the Decision further stated that it was the Office's regular practice to revoke a patent solely on the ground of the main request's non- allowability, since only the main request represented the text unconditionally submitted or agreed by the patent proprietors for the purposes of Article 113(2) EPC. Attention was drawn to a previous communication from the Opposition Division concerning auxiliary requests 2.2 to 2.6.
X. The appellants appealed against the Opposition Division's decision on 18 July 1986, at the same time paying the prescribed fee, and filed a statement of grounds on 17 September 1986. In this they requested that the patent be maintained on the basis of Claims 1 to 8 in the specification or, alternatively, on the basis of one of the six sets of claims received on 14 June 1985. They also asked that the appeal fee be reimbursed.
XI. ...
XII. In a letter received on 11 August 1986 the respondents withdrew their opposition without commenting on the appellants' grounds for appeal.
XIII. The present Claim 1 in the main request reads as follows: ... ...
1. The appeal complies with Articles 106 to 108 and Rule 64 EPC and is therefore admissible.
2. Admissibility of the opposition
2.1 The appellants did not deny that the opposition complied with Article 99 and Rule 55(a), (b) and (d). They merely denied that the opposition met in full the requirements of Rule 55(c), arguing that the facts and evidence adduced in its support were not conclusive in that evidence was brought in support of alleged facts that was either inappropriate (DE-A-2 632 700) or not immediately recognisable as appropriate (DE-A-2 615 157) for the purpose.
2.2 The Board of Appeal shares the view of the Opposition Division that none of the opponents' arguments can be regarded as sound since the EPC nowhere requires that an argument brought in support of opposition must be conclusive in itself for the opposition to be admissible.
2.3 To prove their claim that the subject-matter of Claim 1 in the patent as granted was not allowable because of a lack of inventive step, the opponents referred to general knowledge of the art and referred to three further documents (pages 3 and 4 of the notice of opposition), each clearly identified. They also indicated what they considered was known from which document. Given the shortness of DE-A-2 615 157 (6 1/2 typewritten pages) there was no need to indicate where precisely the claimed disclosure was made. The relevant requirement of Rule 55(c) EPC is therefore met.
2.4 Considering the evidence - which in this case involved determining whether the documents adduced actually established the facts as maintained - is part of the process of ascertaining whether the opposition is well founded in substance. This, under Article 101(1) EPC, may only be done if it has already been determined that the opposition is admissible. In the present case, therefore, the admissibility of the opposition had to be established before it could be decided whether and to what extent the priority of the initial Austrian application had been rightly claimed, whether the citations had been published before the priority date and whether they disclosed what the opponents maintained they did.
3. Main request ...
3.3 Novelty ...
3.3.8 The subject-matter of Claim 1 is therefore novel (Article 54 EPC).
3.4 Inventive step ...
3.4.5 The subject-matter of Claim 1 therefore involves inventive step within the meaning of Article 56 EPC. Claims 2 to 8 are dependent on Claim 1, so that their subject- matter, too, involves inventive step. The Board of Appeal accordingly believes that none of the grounds for opposition referred to in Article 100(a) EPC stands in the way of the contested patent being maintained on the basis of Claims 1 to 8.
4. Auxiliary requests ...
5. Reimbursement of appeal fee
5.1 In their grounds for appeal the appellants requested that the appeal fee be reimbursed, arguing that the Opposition Division's refusal to deliver a decision on their auxiliary requests constituted a substantial procedural violation within the meaning of Rule 67 EPC.
5.2 In its reasoning (point IV) the Opposition Division defended its refusal on the grounds that it could decide to maintain the patent as amended only in a form agreed unconditionally by the patent proprietor. Since the various wordings contained in the auxiliary requests had not been agreed unconditionally by the patent proprietors it could take a decision only on their main request.
5.3 The Opposition Division bases its argument on Legal Advice from the EPO No. 15/84 (OJ EPO 1984, 491).
5.4 Under Article 102(3)(a) EPC the Opposition Division can maintain a European patent as amended only if the proprietor of the patent approves the text in which the Opposition Division intends to maintain the patent by the procedure laid down in Rule 58(4). The Legal Advice referred to states that it may be advisable in opposition proceedings to submit an alternative set of claims on which the Opposition Division can base its decision to maintain the patent in amended form. The patent proprietor may also safeguard his rights by pursuing a set of claims which was not accepted by the Opposition Division. If he raised objections within the period of one month provided for in Rule 58(4) EPC, the Opposition Division may revoke the European patent. In this way the applicant may bring proceedings before the Boards of Appeal without forfeiting the right to obtain, in the alternative, a European patent based on the narrower version proposed by the Opposition Division. It should be noted that, should the patent proprietor wish to reject the Opposition Division's proposal, this must be done expressly. Under Rule 58(4) and (5) EPC, silence is taken to mean consent (Legal Advice No. 15/84, point 4).
5.5 The Board of Appeal considers this legal advice to be at best misleading. It conveys the impression that, if a patent proprietor maintains requests - such as the main request or higher-ranking auxiliary requests - aiming to ensure that the patent is maintained in a form other than that in which the Opposition Division intends to maintain it, the patent can be revoked even if another auxiliary request is for a version which in the Opposition Division's view meets the requirements of the EPC.
5.5.1 Article 102(3)(a) in conjunction with Rule 58(4), and Article 113(2) EPC cannot, however, be interpreted in this way. The patent proprietor is unquestionably entitled to file both a main and auxiliary requests with the Opposition Division. Legal Advice No. 15/84 concedes this and, indeed, recommends it. Moreover the Boards of Appeal have always allowed the filing of auxiliary requests, at least when done in due time (see, for example, Decision T 169/83 already referred to). This was, after all, what the authors of the Convention intended (see Historical Documentation relating to the EPC M/PR/I, p. 54, point 509). As the appellants rightly emphasise, requiring that the text on which a decision is to be taken be submitted or agreed unconditionally by the patent proprietor would mean adding an extra provision to Article 113(2) EPC.
5.5.2 The fact that Article 102(3)(a) EPC provides that a decision to maintain a patent can be taken only if the Opposition Division is satisfied that the patent proprietor approves of the text in which the patent is to be maintained does not mean that this approval has to be unconditional. Article 102(3) EPC reads: "If the Opposition Division is of the opinion that, taking into consideration the amendments made by the proprietor of the patent during the opposition proceedings, the patent and the invention to which it relates meet the requirements of this Convention, it shall decide to maintain the patent as amended, provided that: (a) it is established, in accordance with the provisions of the Implementing Regulations, that the proprietor of the patent approves the text in which the Opposition Division intends to maintain the patent; ..." Rule 58(4), which is related to Article 102, lays down that before the Opposition Division decides on the maintenance of the European patent in the amended form, it must inform the parties that it intends to maintain the patent as amended and must invite them to state their observations within a period of one month if they disapprove of the text in which it is intended to maintain the patent.
5.5.3 Article 102(3)(a) and Rule 58(4) EPC take account of the general provision contained in Article 113(2) EPC which states that the European Patent Office must consider and decide upon the European patent application or the European patent only in the text submitted to it, or agreed, by the applicant for or proprietor of the patent. Even if Articles 103(3) and 113(2) and Rule 58(4) EPC refer only to a single text, this does not necessarily mean that only one text may be submitted for a decision or in other words that submission of or agreement to a text has to be unconditional. On the contrary, the patent proprietor may also - as in the present case - give only conditional agreement through an auxiliary request. With regard to appeal proceedings this is made clear in the Historical Documentation relating to the EPC (cf. M/PR/I, loc. cit.). In such cases, therefore, the Boards of Appeal have interpreted Articles 102 and 113 and Rule 58(4) and (5) EPC to mean that a patent may also be maintained in an amended form if the proprietor has requested maintenance in that form only as an alternative (cf., for example, Decision T 205/83 "Vinyl ester/crotonic acid copolymers/HOECHST", OJ EPO 1985, 363).
5.5.4 There is no reason to interpret the relevant provisions of the EPC differently for Opposition Divisions on the one hand and Boards of Appeal on the other.
5.5.5 This approach also makes for an efficient procedure since it enables both patent proprietor and opponent to decide whether or not an appeal is appropriate while if a case is brought to appeal and the patent proprietor pursues only requests rejected by the department of first instance, the matter does not need to be referred back in order to avoid missing the first level of jurisdiction.
5.6 It is, therefore, the opinion of the Board of Appeal that, without infringing Articles 102 and 103 and Rule 58 EPC, the Opposition Division, too, may decide to maintain the patent on the basis of an auxiliary request by the patent proprietor and indeed must do so if the latter pursues a main request plus non- allowable auxiliary requests which precede one which is allowable.
5.7 Before a decision is taken to maintain a patent in limited form, the proprietor is required to file translations of the amended claims, pay the printing fee, etc. All this will be in vain if subsequently the text is changed again in the light of an appeal or the patent is revoked. Under present practice, the issue of a reasoned interlocutory decision open to appeal is intended to prevent this if the opponent has raised objections (cf. Guidelines for Examination in the EPO, Part D-VI, 6.2.2 and 6.2.3, and Information from the EPO: "Opposition procedure in the EPO", OJ EPO 1985, 272). This course can be adopted perfectly well even if the patent proprietor has given conditional approval to the text.
5.8 Such a decision to maintain a patent on the basis of an auxiliary request is taken - at least in written proceedings - after the time limit laid down in Rule 58(4) has expired. An appeal is then allowed under Article 106(3) EPC and must under Rule 68(2) be reasoned just like any decision open to appeal. The patent proprietor is adversely affected by the rejection of a request or requests preceding an auxiliary request which is allowed. The opponent is also adversely affected by the decision if he has stated his disapproval within the time limit under Rule 58(4) (cf. T 244/85, OJ EPO 1988, 216). The decision must therefore give reasons for every rejection of a request by the patent proprietor and for allowing an auxiliary request which the opponent has contested in good time.
5.9 In the present case the EPC was wrongly interpreted and the patent instead of being maintained in the form considered maintainable by the Opposition Division, was revoked. This does not constitute a substantial procedural violation, however, because the EPC does not clearly lay down the procedure to be followed in dealing with main and auxiliary requests (cf. T 156/84, point 3.13, OJ EPO 1988, 372).
5.10 Rule 68(2) EPC lays down that decisions of the EPO must be reasoned. If, as in the present case, a single decision rejects several requests, it must give reasons for the rejection of each one. This obligation was not adequately fulfilled. Although in exceptional circumstances it may be permissible to refer in a decision to reasons given in preceding communications, it must be quite clear which considerations led the Opposition Division to its conclusion. This is not the case here, at least with regard to the rejection of auxiliary requests 2.3 and 2.5. The decision itself, moreover, refers to a communication attached to the Rule 58(4) notification dated 17 July 1985, which in turn refers to a communication dated 13 February 1985. The latter does indeed state the legal reason for rejecting these auxiliary requests, namely lack of inventive step. However, the only explanation given for citing this ground for opposition is a reference to a discussion within the Opposition Division. During this the Opposition Division had apparently agreed with the opponents' objections to a version of Claim 1 which, as a result of the deletion of the words "input of", had become more generally framed than the version the Opposition Division had itself proposed, and held that the patent should be revoked. That may just be acceptable as a reason if the other party's submission requires no explanation and the facts are very simple, so that it is perfectly obvious why the Opposition Division agrees with the argument put forward. But even this is doubtful in the present case. And as far as the auxiliary requests 2.3 and 2.5 on which the decision to revoke the patent was based are concerned, all that emerges from point 3 of the communication is that having regard to the opponents' interpretation of "IEEE Transactions" the form of Claim 1 proposed by the Opposition Division (on which these auxiliary requests are based) probably lacks inventive step. This supposition is not a sufficient argument, particularly as the opponents' pleadings in its support relate not to the versions of Claim 1 proposed in auxiliary requests 2.3 and 2.5 but to the broader version on which auxiliary requests 2.2 and 2.4 are now based. Although the communication thus clearly shows that the Opposition Division considered that the subject-matter of Claim 1 in auxiliary requests 2.3 and 2.5 lacked inventive step, it does not - as therefore does not the contested decision - indicate whether and if so why it believed the opponents' views concerning an apparatus in which the output of a frequency divider is "fed back" in an undefined manner to another frequency divider apply in the same way to an apparatus in which the output of a frequency divider is "fed back" in a manner specifically described to the input of another frequency divider. No reasons, therefore, are given as required by Rule 51(3) in the case of EPO communications and by Rule 68(2) for decisions for rejecting auxiliary requests 2.3 and 2.5. The Board regards this as a substantial procedural violation justifying reimbursement of the appeal fee (Rule 67 EPC).
For these reasons, it is decided that:
1. The contested decision is set aside.
2. The matter is remitted to the department of first instance with the order that the patent be maintained in the following amended form.
2.1 Claims: 1 to 8 in the specification.
2.2 Description: pages 1 and 2 of the annex to the Rule 58(4) communication of 4 April 1984, column 1, line 56 to column 2, line 3 of the specification, page 3, line 21 to page 15 of the annex to the communication of 4 April 1984.
2.3 Drawings: Figures 1 to 6 in the specification.
3. The appeal fee is to be reimbursed.

The Sprenger Dynamic RS Eggbutt Snaffle is made from Sensogan and ergonomically designed to encourage the horse to accept the bit, thanks to the balanced effect on the tongue.
The Dynamic RS mouthpiece is designed to encourage the horse to accept the bit more easily. The ergonomically formed mouthpiece allows a rapid and balanced effect on the horse's tongue.
The mouthpiece gives even pressure on the entire tongue area, and there is no pressure on the horse's palette. This makes the bit gentle to the mouth and tongue, supporting the contact to the corners of the mouth in an extremely effective way, keeping the horse on the bit.
The central link of the mouthpiece is turned to the front by 45 degrees - this unique angle is the only way to get a true contact to the horse's tongue. When a contact is taken, the mouthpiece rolls smoothly over the tongue and stimulates it in a gentle but effective way. Clearly defined aids can therefore be given through the reins without squeezing the tongue.
Available in a 14mm mouthpiece, in sizes 12.5cm, 13.5cm and 14.5cm.

Due to our Social Enterprise status and our desire to Add Value to the Community which we serve, Carer Break has been working together with the Health and Social Care system to design and develop services that will improve lives, reduce costs, improve efficiencies, increase system capacity and provide irresistible solutions to some of our biggest challenges.
Between the end of February 2015 and December 2016 Carers Break, working with Kernow Clinical Commissioning Group, designed and delivered a very successful and innovative out of hours' response service.
Working with a small but very effective team of highly professional Care support workers, the organisation responded to paramedics, Out of hours GP's and Out of hours District Nurses among other Health departments across the whole county.
Working together, the operation was designed to reduce unnecessary acute hospital admissions.
This goal was achieved and detailed data captured during the pilot reveals that this fantastic and very effective service not only reduces hospital bed admissions substantially, but it is also estimated by NHS costing data that the Acute Trust at Treliske can potentially save the NHS in excess of £30k per month, reduce unnecessary admissions (80% of those called to were not admitted within 30 days) and seriously improve capacity within the already stretched ambulance service.
*The CCG Cornwall removed funding for this Pilot programme on December 31st 2016 but Carers Break continue to capture the data of declined requests for this service as a result of its effectiveness and hope to see it taken up as a permanent facility in the future.
Statistics inform us that there are currently in excess of 65,000 Carers in Cornwall. These are unpaid, unofficial Carers that care and support their family, friends and neighbours in a multitude of ways. Many of these wonderful people are reluctant heroes and perform the role because they feel a sense of responsibility and/or duty as well as love and empathy for the people they care for.
However, anecdotal evidence and our own experience shows us that the great majority of these amazing carers suffer a significant reduction in their own health and wellbeing as a direct result of performing this role, often becoming the next tier of 'Cared For' individuals.
Working with Healthwatch Cornwall and other significant Care related organisations in Cornwall, we are gathering data and information that will enable us to more effectively design and deliver more effective and relevant services.
During 2015/16, working with several other National and regional organisations detailed interviews were conducted with service users across the sector and County. The results were both very revealing and deeply moving.
The research has enabled us to look at how we can continue to develop increasingly bespoke and personalised care provision to all our clients and their families.

How are the life cycle and development of D. suzukii varying with environmental conditions and how does its behaviour vary during the day?
The life cycle and environmental requirements (temperature, humidity, etc.) of D. suzukii are being assessed under various climatic conditions, both in the field and in the laboratory. Characteristics such as overwintering physiology and survival, generation times, lower and upper temperature thresholds, cold and heat tolerance are being gathered for all developmental stages and a day-degree model is being developed. In the field, studies are made along elevation gradients in the Alps. The circadian cycle, using simulated environmental conditions and field observations, is also studied since various characteristics related to the efficacy of control methods vary during the day (e.g. adult migration, insecticide resistance, metabolism, oviposition, mating).
What is the natural host range of D. suzukii and how is the fly distributed in complex landscapes?
Host range is investigated through large-scale field collections of wild fruits in Europe, China and North America. The relative levels of attack are also assessed. In the laboratory, no-choice and choice oviposition and development tests are carried out with cultivated fruits and the susceptibility and damage levels on various fruit varieties is investigated. The spatial ecology of D. suzukii is presently being studied with a large scale landscape approach to gather information on its distribution and the role played by the composition of the farmscape on its abundance. Habitat preference is investigated through surveys from farmscape dominated by monoculture to mosaics of fruit orchards and uncultivated area as well as urban areas. Spatio-temporal patterns are investigated also at the interface among different fruit orchards or between cultivated and uncultivated areas to characterize the specific role of these environments on D. suzukii spread.
What are the mortality factors affecting D. suzukii in native and invaded regions?
In this task, we collect the necessary information to develop biological control strategies against D. suzukii in T4.2. Partial life tables for D. suzukii are being built in Europe and China to investigate the relative importance of natural mortality factors throughout the life cycle of the fly, with emphasis on comparing the impact of natural enemies (parasitoids, predators and pathogens) in the regions of origin and introduction. Natural enemies are also the target of larger sampling programmes in various regions of occurrence in Europe, North America and East Asia.
Can we find better attractants to develop more efficient trapping systems?
Firstly, compounds from infested and non-infested fruits involved in the attraction of D. suzukii are being identified and compared with those already identified and presently used as attractants. Comparisons also include fruits infested with different yeast types that are specifically associated with D. suzukii. Secondly, we identify and test the attractiveness of compounds directly emitted by D. suzukii, such as those involved in courtship and mating behaviour. Information will be used to develop trapping methods for D. suzukii.
How does D. suzukii spread naturally?
Dispersal studies are being carried out with the mark-recapture technique. For this purpose γ-irradiated sterilized flies are released in a central point and recaptured in trap grid. This trial is carried out in cold and warm seasons to study the influence of weather conditions in fly dispersal ability. A flight mill based on designs used for aphids will also be tested to assess flight capacity of D. suzukii adults.
