Code for Australia announces partnerships with Andrews government
Victorian Government leading the way in innovation
15th April, 2016, Melbourne, Victoria.
Melbourne-based non-profit, Code for Australia, is teaming up with the Andrews Government to launch an exciting new project that could revolutionise the way government operates. It's known as "Code for Victoria".
Code for Victoria will bring some of the country's most innovative technologists together with the Victorian State Government to help solve some of their most pressing challenges.
Code for Victoria Fellows will be embedded within the Department of Premier and Cabinet for six months. They will work closely with the public sector to identify, assess and provide solutions for challenges.
"This is an Australian first," said Code for Australia director Dan Groch.
"One of our guiding principles is transparency. We work in public, said Mr Groch. Code for Australia Fellows will produce 'open source' software. What this means is that any member of the public can view it, edit or contribute to it."
The Andrews Government understands that twenty-first century solutions are required for twenty-first century problems.
"We're working hard to further develop the capability of Victoria's public sector workforce said Special Minister of State Gavin Jennings".
"According to the Minister, this initiative will bring together our public service and experts from the tech industry to collaborate on solutions to some of government's most complex problems"
This Code for Victoria initiative is part of a broader push towards building the capabilities in the public sector so that they're equipped to deal with the problems that constantly arise in a world of rapid technological change.
Working in the tech space, Code for Victoria understands the importance of transparency when working with government. Their commitment to working in the open is based on their belief that both government and the people benefit from gaining a greater insight into how government operates and how taxes are being spent.
This new project also seeks to tackle gender imbalance within the tech industry. For the Andrews Government, this is part of the broader commitment to end all forms of discrimination within society. And this is an important opportunity to promote diversity within an industry that has, historically, struggled in this regard.
Code for Victoria shares this vision and encourages broad participation. It sees breaking down the gender gap in the start-up industry as one of its primary long-term objectives.
For further media enquiries please contact Dan Groch, Communications Director on 0412 700 060 or via email [email protected]

This is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been to. The pools are so plentiful that even when the hotel was full it did not seem crowded. Even the restrooms were gorgeous. The room in the Grand Class was amazing. It was large, comfortable, clean and the snacks and fridge were always stocked. The bathroom had a large jaccuzi tub and rain shower. We had a beautiful balcony with a private pool and lounge over-looking the ocean. The best part about the Grand Class was the quiet. Since it was separated from the family friendly section, when we wanted to rest, it was possible.
The staff is kind and helpful but sometimes seemed unable to answer basic questions...one example was when we were booked for dinner reservations on a night when that particular restaurant wasn't open. The poolside staff was very accomodating most days. One day when we felt that we were waiting too long for service, the manager got right to straightening things out.
The food is unbelievable. There are so many choices that it is difficult to make selections. The best restaurant for food and service is the french, Piaf. The Italian restaurant would be a close second but had the slowest service. The molecular restaurant is only for the most adventurous diners.
The only drawbacks to this vacation was the lack of things to do in the evenings. The only entertainment or activity after dinner was the karaoke bar. There was a large company using the facility while we were there and we were jealous of the dance party that they had at the beach. Even if once a week, they had a dance party or theme night of some sort, it would be nice. When choosing an all inclusive resort, I didn't want to venture out into town every evening to seek out and pay for entertainment. Maybe even having some music piped into the area outside the piano bar for some dancing....something.
So, it was ALMOST paradise.

Recently I was visiting a boot camp in Chicago and an older lady asked if it is ever too late to begin an exercise program. Out of respect I did not ask her age but I guessed her to be in her early 50's. Of course my response was it is never too late to improve your lifestyle and begin exercising. This got me thinking about other women who may have the same question so here you go ladies, this is for you.
I'm not going to go into a big list of health benefits of exercise because I have done that in other articles and believe once you have reached 50 your doctor has probably already explained the importance of exercise to you. Now if you have never exercised or it has been many years since doing so then your first step is to consult your physician. This is especially important if you have any current health conditions, a family history of heart disease, or take prescription medication.
Once you have been given the green light from your physician, you will want to begin a gradual routine, nothing strenuous. The goal should be to conduct 30 minutes of moderate physical activity at least three days a week, but more if possible. It is a good idea to include stretching, weight resistance, and cardiovascular exercises in your routine. It is extremely important to start with stretching before you begin your exercise and start slowly.
Two popular exercises for older women are swimming and walking. They are low-impact activities which are less likely to stress your body. Try and avoid any activity involving pounding, like jogging or jump rope. It is also important to execute weight resistance exercises as this will improve bone strength. Osteoporosis is a common result of aging and of menopausal women. Resistance exercise can improve your odds against getting this. Your goal should be to use light weights and perform 15 – 20 reps per exercise.
The importance here is one, getting started, and two, don't quit. Here are some tips to help you achieve both of these:
- Choose something you enjoy.
- Exercise with a partner. It makes it more fun.
- Alter your routine so you don't get bored.
- Choose a time of day that is more comfortable for you.
- Don't get frustrated. Seeing changes will take some time so be patient.
- Include things that make your workout fun, like listening to music or reading while riding a stationary bicycle, or take a walk on the beach or at the park.
There are many different facilities in Chicago Exercise for Women, you can choose. It is never too late to begin an exercise program and women over 50 should perform some form of activity to keep them healthy and prolong their life. If you're unsure where to begin then speak with an expertise in the industry and let them help you get started.

Game Bubble Man: Rolling is a continuation of a series of games of Bubble Man razraotchikov of Playpax Games, which includes two more games, very similar to this, to be precise, the question about Bubble Man: Rises and Bubble Man: Dragon Dash. So if you enjoy this game, you should not ignore, and two more, but in general, see for yourself, and I, as usual, offer to understand what is happening!
Let's start with positioning. Before us is quite usual arcade game, made in the context of the platform Rahner, where without some purpose, we try to get as far as possible with a single call, with no hope of anything pass. The situation is so familiar that even add nothing to it.
The main character in our game is important, because thanks to his "talents" and the game was born, offering us a kind of entertainment. The main feature of the aforementioned comrade explicitly excess weight, which turned it into a ball, however, breaking patterns behaves he is also like a balloon, and therefore very easy-going and jumps well, sometimes even soars (flatulence?), Which we will use. As usual, the road to a non-existent target filled with a variety of difficulties, particularly precipices, large drawers, dogs and even birds with sharp beak. Any school associated with these obstacles will force you to start over again. Along the way, we may collect the burgers, which are needed to in the event of an accident in 20 pieces continue to let the wound site. It is also worth noting that the game is actually a lot of characters that are different looks. However, to buy them for burgers does not work, you can get them only occasionally in the form of a gift or buy for 99 cents, which in my opinion is no point does not matter.
games Disadvantages:
Bottom line: the game Bubble Man: Rolling is another cool runner with simple controls and gameplay that will make sweat, but can lift your mood and help to kill some time.

Within the psychotherapy and counseling domains, a client employs a professional with a degree in psychology, counseling, or medicine. Often the sessions are held at the therapist's office. An insurance company may pay the invoice.
This is a medical model: Within the psychotherapy and counseling domains, a client employs a professional with a degree in psychology or medicine. Often the sessions are held at the therapist's office. An insurance company may pay the invoice. This is a medical model:
- The doctor or therapist has a "practice""
- Is employed to treat people for their mental health issues or personality disorder.
- A third party like insurance may cover the cost of these services.
In psychotherapy, the assumption is to treat the symptoms and underlying causes. For example, a client may enter psychotherapy because he gets into fights at work with his supervisors. After a few sessions in which he brings up his past and talks about his possible causes that contribute to the fights, the client realizes that he is repeating problems he had with his parents with his boss. In fact, he realizes that he has deliberately chosen a boss who reminds him of his father.
In Coaching
The underlying assumption in a coaching session is that the client is well and resourceful and can handle his or her life.
If this same client were to hire a coach, the coach would ask empowering questions and challenge his thinking about handling the boss issues. A coach does not delve into a client's past, but focuses on the present time, issue or goal.
[bctt tweet="In coaching, the WHY is not important! Coaches deal with the HOW. " username="Families Coach"]Coaches intervene all the time with advice, encouragement and expertise!
I was a licensed therapist, and I like coaching better. In coaching, the client is whole, resourceful, and ready for change. Yet, the model in therapy is that the client is broken. As a therapist, I used to only listen and never give my opinion. Sometimes I felt as if I could be replaced by a mannequin."
…Mark Brandenberg
Therapy is about looking backwards. Coaching is about working with today. We deal with what is now.
… Jill Herman
Coaches review a client's strengths and focus on them. The medical/psychological establishment focuses on problems and pathology. We look at wellness and not what is broken. If a coach finds a true pathology, the coach refers that person to a psychologist or other appropriate specialist. Troubled persons with long-standing problems may not think rationally and that is why coaches refer them.
In coaching, the model is that the client is whole, healthy, and wants to achieve goals. He is open to discussion, brainstorming, and looking to the future, not the past.

As the Weather Heats Up, The More Body You'll Be Showing
Coolsculpting is an easy way to get rid of those hard to lose fat areas
Summer is upon us and that means that you will be wearing bikinis, short shorts, and other outfits that show off more of your body. This includes those areas that you wish you could hide. Those little fat pockets that form around your lower chin, waist, belly, and thighs. Once these fat areas settle in, it can seem almost impossible to get rid of them…until now.
Before a form of cryolipolysis called Coolsculpting came along, the only options to fast fat removal were invasive liposuction or plastic surgery. The latter procedures are dangerous and extremely expensive. They also take a long time to recover from and leave scars. For most, plastic surgery and liposuction are not even an option. So, we exercise and diet like crazy in the coming months toward summer only to be disappointed that the fat areas are too stubborn to combat.
What is This Coolsculpting All About?
Coolsculpting has been around for about 8 years now and has seen many improvements over the years. It is basically a machine that freezes the fat in a specific area while leaving other cells intact. Apparently, fat cells freeze at a higher temperature than other cells and therefore, they can be singled out without disrupting surrounding tissue.
The procedure takes around 30-40 minutes per area and you can literally go back to work, or to the beach, right after. You will be left with a bit of a skin irritation that will subside in a few hours.
The only time-consuming part of Coolsculpting is the waiting time for the fat cells to naturally dispose of. This process is natural as the body eliminates the fat cells over a 3-4 month time. This leaves the end of winter or early spring as the best time to get your Coolsculpting work done.
Where Can I Get Coolsculpting Done?
Many plastic surgeons are hopping on the Coolsculpting train and are offering this simple procedure right in their clinics. There are many clinics in California offering Coolsculpting. The prices range depending on what area you are getting done and what clinic you are getting it done at. The prices are significantly less that plastic surgery as the sessions for Coolsculpting are quick and simple. They can be administered by the clinic's staff and don't require the actual doctor.
Here in Sacramento, CA there are a number of clinics that offer Coolsculpting. Check out this site to find clinics in the Sacramento area.

Met a guy online, it's been almost a month. We've spent time together at least 2 times per week since we met on dating site. We had a lot of common interests, there was chemistry, he's a great guy and so close to my ideal, it was amazing. Tall, light brown hair, blue eyes, handsome, sweet, intelligent, funny.
After our second date he brought up where this was going, said he wants to be exclusive, removed his account from dating sites and said he has no interest in anyone but me. We had sex, and I now regret it as I think it's tailspun toward physical for him as he used to send me morning and sleep well texts or how is my day going, that now are slim to none. The only messages I get now are about sex be it how good it was, when it will be again, or that he's thinking about it. I try to change the subject and then he doesn't reply to those messages as often.
Then, he sends me text saying do I want more sex, and that this is not relationship. I was confused as he's the one who said he wanted to see me exclusively and now he's saying just sex? So, I said no, I need to know we're moving toward relationship, getting to know one another. I have 2 kids, I can't just run off and be having sex with no future with someone. He said, ok well relationships take time and to not panic and stress. Then he'll send me messages do you love me? I'm like, that would require more time don't you think? Which he is like yes, it would. You're right.
I am just thinking he's either playing games and I'm just so naive and hopeful that I'm not seeing them since he's so great to me, or maybe he's just terrible at this. He is from South Africa, so I'm not sure if maybe it is cultural differences that are affecting this as he's only been in America for a few years. I text him about us since he doesn't seem to have plans to meet up with me anytime soon and he won't reply to them now for 2 days now, nothing. I am just wondering... should I cut my losses at this point or wait him out?

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Heavy rains and flooding have thrown off spring planting and harvesting schedules for many of California's growers this year, but there has been a silver lining for the region's farmers.
Along with the heavy rains, the High Sierra snowpack is at 159% of its normal level, leading Gov. Jerry Brown to declare an end to the severe, three-year drought that has led to significant water restrictions for both growers and residents throughout the region.

The couple, who this year must make their first annual payment of £120,000 to the Queen for the rental of their apartment at Kensington Palace, accumulated losses of almost £800,000 with Cantium Services, the umbrella firm for their commercial activities.
So dire are the latest accounts filed at Companies House that the directors of the consultancy firm felt the need to warn that its losses would "indicate a significant doubt about the company's ability to continue as a going concern".
The directors say they do not advise that it should be shut down only because a total of £800,000 in share capital has been pumped into the firm.
The couple have undertaken to keep supporting the company, which lost a further £39,806 in the year ending March 31 2009. They declare in the accounts that they will "continue to provide the necessary finance, either by way of additional share capital or by personal loans, to enable the company to continue".
Simon Astaire, their spokesman, declines to shed any light on how the firm accrued such heavy losses, or where the £800,000 came from. "We have a policy of never commenting on the Prince and Princess's finances," he tells me.
A friend of the couple, whose son, Lord Frederick Windsor, married the actress Sophie Winkleman in September, insists, however: "Don't you worry about their being hard up. Michael makes an awful lot of money in Russia."
The Prince and Princess sold their 18th century Gloucestershire retreat, Nether Lypiatt, for £5.75 million in 2006 to Lord Drayson, the Science Minister, whose company PowderJect was awarded a £32 million government contract for smallpox vaccine without competition in 2002, shortly after he donated £50,000 to the Labour Party. A Parliamentary inquiry identified no improper activity.
For the past seven years, the Queen paid the £10,000-a-month rental bill on the Prince and Princess's London apartment. The five-bedroom property had been a wedding gift from the monarch. However, in 2002, after protests from republican Labour MPs, Buckingham Palace announced that a commercial rent would be paid on the flat.

Clive Hannay draws and Rodney Legg describes one of our tiniest villages
Published in June '11
A chalkland parish with only a couple of dozen inhabitants is a Dorset rarity. So too are field churches – those reached by path across pastures – and this is one that has gone through the threat and trauma of redundancy, but survived intact. Whitcombe's grey limestone building is a gem, with pieces of two Anglo-Saxon cross-shafts and wall paintings, including a 15th-century St Christopher.
The village lies beside the main road from Dorchester to Broadmayne, although the parish is a 750-acre strip that continues for a couple of miles towards the chalk escarpment above Weymouth Bay. Widecombe was its ancient name, when King Aethelstan gave the manor to Milton Abbey. It was served by a stipendiary priest until 1539, when the stipend was fixed at £13, a year after the Dissolution of the monasteries.
For prehistory, look further south to the Ridgeway and the barrow-studded uplands from Came Wood towards Broadmayne. Straddling the parish boundary are the Neolithic Whitcombe – a long barrow communal burial mound in the wood – and ten Bronze-Age round barrows strung out along the hilltops. Most prominent, at 470 feet above sea level, is Culliford Tree beech-clump, also known as the 'Music Barrow', for sweet sounds at midday. I have to report that on this score it was a disappointment. Least noticeable is a rare pond barrow, which is a depression rather than a mound, and presumably linked Beaker Culture warriors with the underworld.
There is a Whitcombe man in the public domain – he is a carving of a horse-and-rider, brandishing a spear – in the Dorset County Museum. It was found beside the remains of a Romano-British building, on Whitcombe Hill, that was discovered in 1963 and excavated between 1965 and 1967. The 27-inch-wide relief carving depicts a bearded rider with a belted tunic and flowing coat and a baldrick for a sword that is not shown. The Royal Commission on Historical Monuments considered that he might be a military man, perhaps carved for a gravestone, but concluded that he might represent a 3rd-century shrine dedication to: '…a Thraco-Danubian hero-god regarded as a protector of hunters and a saviour in the struggle against the forces of evil.'
Contemporary Celtic fields spread further south across the former Eweleaze. Some lynchets were six feet high, preserved at the edge of later quarries, but most traces were put under the plough after enclosure in the late 18th century when this was called 'New Ground' on a Lulworth estate map. Another layer of archaeology is spread around the church. The mediaeval lost village of Whitcombe comprises house platforms and closes. Until the 18th century there were still a few surviving cottages or hovels in the fourteen-acre field.
Whitcombe Farm retains a 17th-century barn but was largely rebuilt in the 19th century in surroundings that have been re-gentrified into a mini-village in recent times. In the church, pre-Conquest stone blocks, which are set in a recess opposite the door, carry interlaced 10th-century decoration. The west half of the nave dates from the 12th century, the chancel was added in the 15th century and the tower erected early in the 16th century. Its bells, carrying the initials of John Wallis, were cast in 1610 and inscribed 'Hope Well' and 'Love God'. The communion table dates from 1637 and has matching rails inscribed as 'The Giueft of A. M. Wedo – D. S. E. H.' The stand for a paten records that it was given by 'Mrs Lora Pitt, widow, to Whitcomb Church in Dorsetshire'.
The local gentry lived over the hill at Came House. Winterborne Came and Whitcombe shared a rector, most notably Dorset's parson-poet William Barnes. When he announced his candidature for Holy Orders, at the age of 45 in January 1847, the father of a pupil at his Dorchester school, Colonel Seymour Dawson Damer of Came House, offered him the living at Whitcombe. The parish then comprised a farm, twelve cottages, and fifty souls. Bishop Denison fast-tracked Barnes so that he could be ordained deacon the following month. In March he walked out of Dorchester to preach his first sermon. Farmer Arthur Cooper, the parish clerk, was an officious yokel – 'My Archbishop of York,' Barnes called him, in an allusion to the age-old schism between Canterbury and York. He quoted the man as repeatedly saying: 'You've got to take notice of I. I be the second man in the church I be.'
In January 1862, Colonel Damer wrote to say that his cousin was resigning the living at Winterborne Came; he could now offer the poet and schoolmaster a proper parish, with the cosy thatched Rectory on the Dorchester road to go with it: 'which,' he said, 'I do with the most heartfelt pleasure in the world, hoping you will live long to enjoy it.'
That he did, until his death there, in 1886. During that time he remained the 'officiating minister' at Whitcombe. Barnes's daughter, Mrs Lucy Baxter, provides this vignette: 'Whitcombe, whose people received their former curate with joy as their rector, lies above a mile from Came along the high road. There is a long hill leading to it, between the cliffs of a deep cutting, where the fiercest winds and the hottest sun share the times of the year between them. Up this long hill the parson and his daughters would toil through rain or snow or sunshine every week, greeted when they appeared on the summit with the triple harmony of the village church bells. In summer, a roof of blue overhung the deep cleft of ruddy soil, whose banks were covered with wild flowers – pinks, crow's-bill, golden pennyroyal, and tender silver-weed – and the poet wrote sermons in them all.'
Though William Barnes is buried at Came, it was the little church at Whitcombe that was restored in his name. A plaque records: 'To the Glory of God and to the memory of William Barnes, the preservation of this church was carried out AD 1912.'
To see Whitcombe and its setting, there is a gentle
walk of less than two miles, along grassy paths and
chalky tracks and avoiding the road, which can be a dangerous one along which to walk.
The Walk
Park and start from the lay-by opposite Whitcombe Church – without blocking the gate – on the A352 between Dorchester and Warmwell Cross roundabout (Ordnance Survey map reference SY 716 883 in postcode DT2 8NY).
Set off along the road from the church, uphill towards Dorchester, but only for 100 yards. Then turn right, through gates between the field and a triangle of newly-planted trees. Bear right in the next two fields. Pass between the chicken sheds and the back gardens of the village. Continue straight ahead, into the next field, and follow the hedgerow. Go through the gate and turn left up the corridor between a hedge and post-and-rail fencing.
This leads to a cross-roads of tracks in 250 yards. Turn right, down the stony track, which is an unpaved public road, into the dip and then up to the main road.
Cross into the lane on the other side and approach Whitcombe Stables. Having proceeded to the end of the first field, turn sharp right through the first gate, to enter that field. Cross the pasture diagonally, to a break in the hedge just to the left of the opposite corner, towards the village. Go through gates and proceed straight ahead along the grassy strip.
Turn right between the fenced compounds to a gate on to the road opposite the post-box at the entrance to the village. Turn left along the narrow pavement, wide enough for just one at a time, to return to the lay-by.

I'm not scared of much.
I tolerate the dark
I'll still live though snakes roam the planet.
My empty house doesn't scare me
I'm not scared of intruders and thieves,
Until I hear the thump.
Up the stairs, I hear a snap, then silence.
I know what it was, but it still makes me nervous
That stupid monster, commanding me to feed it.
One mistake, and it will take my finger.
That ugly beast, who lives only to taunt me.
That stupid, ugly, huge, menacing, terrifying,


text: Progress (NASDAQ: PRGS) has helped registered taxi companies in the Netherlands to quickly comply with new regulation and improve the quality of their services in large cities. By using Progress® Rollbase™, part of the Progress® Pacific™ application development platform, Brixxs, a Dutch systems integrator and technology vendor, has developed and updated applications that have allowed taxi companies known as ATOs (Allowed Taxi Organizations) to comply with strict new regulations introduced by the Dutch government, within three days of them coming into effect. Aimed at applying stricter regulation for taxi drivers and companies, the new legislation was introduced in July to improve customer service in large Dutch cities. The Progress Rollbase product was selected by Brixxs because it allowed it to rapidly develop applications in line with these new laws and ensure that ATOs were fully compliant with all aspects of the new legislation as quickly as possible. As part of its work on the ATO applications, Brixxs was able to use components from its existing Rollbase private cloud platform. Brixxs was also able to save considerable time and money for all relevant ATO organizations by updating all standard ATO applications and providing an easy way to centrally release updates. Executive Quotes: "Change, both inside and outside of the company walls, has become a structural part of business today, whether it's as a result of new laws and regulations or other changes in the business world," explains Freddy Jaarsma, director of Brixxs. "Increasingly, the biggest challenge modern businesses face is that these changes have to take place faster and faster. This means the solutions you use should also be able to deal with change. The advantage of the Progress Rollbase platform is that it has the speed, accessibility and flexibility required to develop applications as and when circumstances dictate."

The introgressed segment carrying rust resistance genes Yr17, Lr37 and Sr38 in wheat can be assayed by a cloned disease resistance gene-like sequence
- Citations
- 264 Downloads
A cloned gene sequence (Vrga1D), with features of the nucleotide-binding-site leucine-rich repeat class of disease resistance (R) gene sequence super family, was previously shown to belong to a family of five gene members derived from a Triticum ventricosum Ces. (syn. Aegilops ventricosa Tausch) segment in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). This gene family was introgressed, together with the linked rust resistance genes Yr17, Lr37 and Sr38 from T. ventricosum, to wheat chromosome 2AS. An independently derived T. ventricosum segment carrying a leaf rust resistance gene in a French wheat cultivar, was shown to exhibit a rust resistance response equivalent to Lr37 as well as Yr17 and Sr38. DNA probes from different regions of the Vrga1D clone consistently detected the presence of RFLPs associated with the introgressed segment carrying the resistance genes Yr17, Lr37 and Sr38 present in diverse wheat genotypes from Australia, Canada, France and the UK. Our results showed that the transfer of the T. ventricosum- derived Vrga1 gene members and the rust resistance genes were always accompanied by the loss of a corresponding set of Vrga1-related gene members in recipient wheat cultivars presumed to be of homoeoallelic origin. A PCR assay, based on sequences from the 3"-untranslated region of a Vrga1 gene member isolated from the T. ventricosum donor line of the introgressed segment, was developed. The PCR assay detected the presence of the introgressed rust resistance genes across the diverse wheat backgrounds and should be useful in marker- assisted selection in wheat breeding.

Kissing can be an awkward business and no more so than in the realm of politics. Whether friend or foe, political ally or someone you've just traded barbs with, politicians are constantly faced with situations where a kiss is the standard form of greeting. And the type of kiss you share is particularly telling. Will it be a polite chin swipe on an official state tour? A fumbling collision of noses at a convention in Geneva? Or a reassuring-arm-squeeze-plus-peck after sealing a trade deal or treaty? We examine the most entertaining embraces ever to grace a political sphere:

Litigation and Arbitration in the USA
By Aaron N. Wise, Attorney at Law © 2009
Americans' proclivity to start lawsuits or threaten to do so. Americans are, in general, inclined to start litigation or to threaten it - probably more so than just about anyone else. It is not just American lawyers that exhibit this tendency, but also (and particularly) American business people---in fact, Americas generally. The common expression Asue the bastards@ quite probably originated with an American business person, not a U.S. lawyer.
Americans often sue or threaten suit as a strategic device to obtain some sort of amicable settlement: a money payment, a new contract, an agreement by the other side to abandon its claims, or the like. The great majority of commercial litigations started are never decided by the court or arbitration panel. They are settled by the parties after the legal proceeding has begun. Sometimes, the threat of legal action is sufficient to bring about a settlement.
An example: a foreign firm sells goods to a U.S. buyer or grants a technology license to a U.S. party. The U.S. side does not pay for the goods or the royalties. The foreign firm sues the U.S. party in an American court. In such a case, the U.S. side=s lawyer will often respond by making strong counterclaims, possibly claiming high damages. Often such counterclaims are quite exaggerated and not at all justified. That is a strategy to frighten the foreign party into abandoning the lawsuit or concluding a settlement favorable to the U.S. side but not the foreign side. We would emphasize that in a U.S. litigation, the plaintiff or counterclaimant does not have to deposit any money with the court (e.g., in proportion to the damage amount claimed). Rather, in the USA, claims for very high amounts are commonly made in lawsuits, often for psychological reasons even though the party making them knows its chances of recovering them are small.
In this author's experience, foreigners are particularly good targets for lawsuits and serious threats of litigation. They frequently do not understand the U.S. milieu, mentality and underestimate the chances and danger of a lawsuit. They often do not really fully appreciate the value in the U.S. climate of carefully drafted, American style contracts aimed at protecting them. They typically do not bring an American lawyer into the picture early enough to reduce significantly the risk of lawsuits and claims against the foreign party.
General Suggestions. At the time of contracting with a U.S. party, you, the foreign party, should keep the following in mind:
- to the extent possible, stay out of the US courts;
- provide for arbitration of all claims and disputes in its contracts with U.S. parties (including in your General Terms of Sale), typically in the USA;
- be sure that contracts with U.S. parties are drafted, or at the least carefully reviewed, by US legal counsel with experience in the area.
! Exceptions. There are situation in which serious consideration should be given to providing in a contract that a particular U.S. court will have jurisdiction for disputes and claims, or certain of them. One such situation might, for example be where the foreign party has licensed the U.S. side to use its Atrade secrets@ or confidential information. That might occur within the framework of a license agreement, a joint venture or a cooperation agreement. One of the main concerns of a licensor or JV partner is to be able to prevent the U.S. side from making authorized use or disclosure of the secret or confidential information. In such a situation, a U.S. court can react quickly by issuing first, a temporary restraining order and then, a Apreliminary injunction@ ordering the U.S. side not to take such action. While arbitrators might have the power to issue similar orders, often they will not be in the position to react quickly enough.
It is usually possible to state in the parties= contract that disputes and claims will be resolved by arbitration, but that one or both parties reserves the right to seek Ainterlocutory relief@ (of the type mentioned above) from a court

Most silicone coated release liners, which are used with labels and business forms, have a super-calendered kraft base paper. These super-calendered sheets are very dense and prevent the silicone from soaking into the fibers before curing. The densified kraft or coated base papers curl drastically with small changes in temperature or humidity. This causes problems not only in manufacturing, but also when run through laser printers or the like at customer's installations. The calendering process also leaves a very smooth surface so that sometimes frictionizing coatings need to be applied to the liner opposite the silicone coating to aid in printer feeding when forms or labels utilizing the release liner are fed through non-impact printers, such as laser printers. The frictionizing coatings can rub off, contaminating printer parts.
While bond papers or non-densified kraft papers are known to have a more open construction more like the face sheets of the labels or business forms formed thereby, which results in less curling, it has been extremely difficult to apply a thin, smooth, continuous layer of silicone to the surface of such papers. Therefore these papers either have not been used or if used have less desirable properties than conventional release liners. One proposal for remedying this problem (see U.S. Pat. No. 5,023,138) has been to use a hot melt material having wax like properties that penetrates the porous paper substrate to provide a barrier coat so that the silicone can be provided thereover, but this increases the cost of production because it requires another step, and another coating material.
According to the present invention a release liner, a business form or label construction utilizing a release liner, and a method of producing business forms or labels using a laser printer or the like, are provided which overcome the problems set forth above. One of the key features of the present invention is to use a substrate of carbonizing bond paper for the release liner, onto which a radiation curable silicone release material is coated. Carbonizing bond paper is the paper that is a carrier for carbon in the manufacture of carbon paper. A typical range of properties of carbonizing bond paper is conventionally recognized as follows:
______________________________________ 16 lb. 20 lb.______________________________________Basis Weight (17 � 22 - 500) 15.2-16.8 19.0-21.0(g/m2) 57.2-63.2 71.4-79.1Caliper (mils) 2.4-2.8 3.2-3.6Porosity, Sheffield units 5-45 5-45(2 1/4" orifice)Opacity, Bausch Lomb (%) 80-89 85-93Smoothness, Sheffield - FS 110-160 110-160WS 60-110 60-110Brightness - FS 75-85 75-85WS 75-85 75-85Ink Penetration (Hercules) - FS 10-25 10-25Wax Pick - FS 12-18 12-18Ash (%) 15-18 15-32______________________________________ FS Felt Side WS Wire Side
Carbonizing bond, the base paper, usually is coated paper, ranging in weight from 12 lb. to 20 lb. (17�22-500). The pigments used in the base paper coating and/or on the coating serve to increase the opacity of the sheet, which minimizes the show-through of the carbon ink applied on the back of the paper. The coating tends to cover up any pinholes in the base paper so that the carbon ink does not strike through to the front of the paper, and it increases the release and receptivity of the carbon ink.
Carbonizing bond paper is distinct from conventional bond paper in that it provides more hold-out, which allows a conventional coater to apply a thin, smooth, continuous layer of silicone release material directly to a face of the carbonizing bond paper. However it does not have the same lack of permeability as super-calendered kraft base paper. Also, carbonizing bond paper has faces which are lo relatively rough, much rougher than the very smooth surfaces of calendered papers, so that there is no necessity for providing a frictionizing coating to facilitate printer feeding. The carbonizing bond paper utilized as the release liner according to the present invention preferably is lightweight, e.g. having a weight between about 35-80 grams per square meter (gsm), preferably about 45-60 gsm.
According to one aspect of the present invention a release liner for business form and label constructions having pressure sensitive adhesive is provided. The release liner comprises a substrate of carbonizing bond paper having a weight of between about 35-80 gsm (preferably about 45-60 gsm), and having first and second faces. The radiation curable silicone release material is coated directly on the first face of the substrate. That is no barrier coat is necessary, the carbonizing bond having sufficient porosity to allow some penetration of the silicone, but insufficient porosity (such as standard bond, newspaper, or like uncalendered papers have) to allow deep penetration. Therefore a thin, smooth, continuous layer of silicone release material may be coated directly on the first face.
The silicone release material preferably comprises a polymer blend having a coating weight of between about 0.8-2.3 gsm (e.g. between 1.2-1.9 gsm) applied to the first face, and the second face is bare (that is uncoated, no frictionizing coating being necessary to provide printer feeding). The coating may be a substantially continuous coating (that is over substantially the entire area to which it is applied), or it may be pattern coated. One exemplary pattern is a plurality of parallel spaced strips, which are easy to apply with conventional coaters, although spots, dots, diamond-shape, or other patterns also may be provided as long as they allow sufficient release of pressure sensitive adhesive which will contact the silicone release material.
The silicone polymer blend may comprise 30-99% base silicone polymer, 0-40% tight release additive, 0-50% easy release additive, 0-69% substantially inert ingredients, and about 1-5% photoinitiator. While both tight and easy release additives may be used, preferably only one or the other is used. For example the silicone polymer blend may comprise or consist essentially of about 85-98% base silicone polymer, about 1-10% tight or easy release additive, and about 1-5% photoinitiator; or the silicone polymer blend may consist essentially of about 95-99% base silicone polymer and 1-5% photoinitiator.
A business form or label construction (typically for use in a non-impact printer, such as a laser printer, which generates heat as part of the curing process) also is provided according to the invention. The business form or label comprises a paper face sheet (e.g. conventional bond paper) typically having a weight of between about 65-99 gsm (e.g. about 75-85 gsm) and first and second faces. In one aspect of the invention a pressure sensitive adhesive is applied to the silicone coating on the release liner. The adhesive then transfers to the second face of the face sheet when the face sheet is pressed into engagement with the adhesive layer. The adhesive transfers to the face sheet since it has greater affinity for the face sheet than the silicone coating. In another aspect of the invention a pressure sensitive adhesive coating is applied to the second face of the face sheet, e.g. a hot melt permanent or removable adhesive. The release liner comprises a substrate of carbonizing bond paper having first and second faces and a cured radiation curable silicone polymer blend coated directly on the first face of the substrate, the silicone polymer blend of the release liner engaging the pressure sensitive adhesive. The details of the carbonizing bond and the silicone material may be as set forth above.
The invention also contemplates a method of producing business forms or labels using a laser printer. The method comprises the steps of: Providing a business form or label in sheet form comprising: a paper face sheet having a weight of between about 65-99 grams per square meter, and first and second faces; a permanent or removable hot melt pressure sensitive adhesive coating said second face of said face sheet; and a release liner comprising a substrate of carbonizing bond paper having a weight between grams 35-80 grams per square meter, and having first and second faces; and a cured UV curable silicone polymer blend coated directly on said first face of said substrate or on the first face of the release liner; said silicone polymer blend of said release liner engaging said pressure sensitive adhesive. And, passing the sheet through the laser printer to print indicia on the paper face sheet first face, substantially without curl of the business form or label. The providing step may be further practiced by providing the particular silicone polymer blend as set forth above.
The release liner, and the business form or label and method utilizing the release liner, according to the present invention will thus be seen to have most of the advantages of the prior art with few of the drawbacks. The release liner according to the present invention is relatively inexpensive, does not require a barrier coat before application of the silicone release material, yet the silicone release material may be readily applied in a thin, smooth continuous layer using conventional equipment, and the release liner face opposite the silicone release material has no need for a frictionizing coating. The release liner is easy to manufacture, not being nearly as susceptible to small changes in temperature or humidity as conventional super-calendered kraft papers coated with silicone which are used as release liners, and when used in laser or like printers have much less a tendency to curl than conventional super-calendered kraft paper release liners.
It is the primary object of the present invention to provide an advantageous release liner, and products and methods utilizing the same. This and other objects of the invention will become clear from an inspection of the detailed description of the invention, and from the appended claims.
FIG. 1 is a side cross-sectional view, with the components greatly enlarged in size for clarity of illustration, of an exemplary release liner according to the present invention in the act of being detached from a form or label construction according to the invention; and
FIG. 2 is a schematic representation of the use of the business form or label construction of FIG. 1 with a laser printer to print the form or label construction.
FIG. 1 illustrates a release liner according to the present invention, shown generally by reference numeral 10, as part of (being detached from) an exemplary business form or label construction 11 according to the present invention. The release liner 10 comprises a substrate 12 of carbonizing bond paper preferably having a weight of between about 35-80 grams per square meter (e.g. about 45-60 gsm), and having a first face 13 and a second face 14. A radiation curable silicone release material coating 15 is provided on the first face 13. As illustrated in FIG. 1 preferably the coating 15 is directly on the face 13, with no barrier coat being necessary or desirable. The silicone release material coat 15 is thin, smooth, and uniform. Preferably the second face 14 of the substrate 12 is bare; that is it is uncoated, there being no reason to apply frictionizing coating materials thereto.
Preferably the silicone 15 is a UV curable silicone, and it has a coating weight of between about 0.8-2.3 gsm (preferably about 1.2-1.9 gsm). Preferably the silicone release material 15 comprises a silicone polymer blend comprising 30-99% base silicone polymer, 0-40% tight release additive, 0-50% easy release additive, 0-69% substantially inert ingredients, and about 1-5% photoinitiator. For example the coating 15 may consist essentially of about 85-98% base silicone polymer, about 1-10% tight or easy release additive (typically one or the other), and about 1-5% photoinitiator. Alternatively the coating 15 may consist essentially of about 95-99% base silicone polymer and about 1-5% photoinitiator.
While any suitable available components may be used for the silicone coating 15, a suitable UV curable silicone coating material is available from Goldschmidt Company, and sold under the trade names RC-711 and RC-705. A suitable U photoinitiator may be type A12, also available from Goldschmidt. An exemplary tight release additive is Goldschmidt RC-708, and an exemplary easy release additive is Goldschimidt RC726. Almost any substantially inert ingredient may be utilized if some is provided, one of many examples being SR 238, available from Sartomer Company.
The coating 15 is applied with conventional coating equipment, and may be provided continuously so that it substantially completely covers the face 13 (or those portions thereof which have a release function), or the coat 15 may be provided in a pattern configuration. While any conventional pattern configuration may be utilized, one particularly suitable is a plurality of substantially parallel spaced strips, the spacings being relatively narrow so that proper release functions of the release liner 10 are provided.
The business form or label construction 11 according to the invention which utilizes the release liner 10 includes a paper face sheet 17, preferably conventional bond paper, such as one having a weight of between about 65-99 gsm (e.g. between 75-85 gsm). The face sheet 17 has a first face 18 on which indicia is printed, and a second face 19. A pressure sensitive adhesive 20 coats the second face 19, or the silicone coating 15 coated on the first face 13 of the release liner 12. Any suitable conventional pressure sensitive adhesive can be used, such as a hot melt permanent or removable adhesive. The adhesive 20 contacts the silicone coating 15, and easy release between them is provided, as schematically illustrated in FIG. 1 which shows the face sheet 17 with attached adhesive 20 being separated from the release liner 10.
A form or label construction 11 according to the present invention is shown schematically in sheet form in FIG. 2, in this particular construction a business form construction being provided in which a pair of labels 22 are die cut from the surrounding matrix which also comprises a business form. The construction 11 is fed, as illustrated by arrow 23, to a conventional non-impact printer which uses heat to fuse toner, such as a conventional laser printer 24. The construction 11 is printed with indicia, as indicated schematically at 25 in FIG. 2, on the first face 18 of the face sheet 17 of the construction 11. Because the release liner substrate 12 has a relatively open construction, more like the face sheet 17 than conventional calendered kraft papers, there is little or no curl of the construction 11 as or after it passes through the printer 24.
It will thus be seen that according to the present invention an advantageous business form or label construction, release liner used in that construction, and method of printing the business form or label construction with a non-curling configuration, have been provided. While the invention has been herein shown and described in what is presently conceived to be the most practical and preferred embodiment thereof it will be apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art that many modifications may be made thereof within the scope of the appended claims, which claims are to be given the broadest reasonable interpretation so as to cover all equivalent structures and methods.

The hygiene hypothesis got a boost from Ege et al, who analyzed dust from 16,000 European children's bedrooms and mattresses (stored with clinical/demographic data in two huge repositories, GABRIELA and PARSIFAL), for bacterial DNA or growth on bacterial/fungal culture media. Children living on farms had odds ratios for asthma of 0.49 to 0.76, compared to those with no farm exposure. Farm kids' dust had greater diversity of bacterial DNA and more species of bacteria and fungi in cultures, as well.

The advanced design allows the center ring to be released and rotated, which relieves tension of the support rods as the box is being assembled. Simply unlock the adaptor ring, insert all four rods in to the Quickring, then lock the adaptor ring back in place. The softbox is now assembled and ready to use.
