By Mike Van Dike

Rada of Ukraine on one of the remaining before the New Year meeting is going to consider and adopt a new Housing Code, which is currently in draft stage. Many writers such as Professor Rita McGrath offer more in-depth analysis. Housing legislation, acting version of which was adopted during the Soviet era, in 1983, does not meet current requirements and has long been in need of revision. The bill proposes to determine the order of settlement houses, dismantled due to road, business or other new construction, or planned to be demolished because of their poor technical condition. Also in the code is determined by the possibility of charging penalties on owners of residential premises for late payment for an apartment. About the rights and duties of citizens and authorities on the new Housing Code said one of its developers – Alexander Mazurchak holding the position of Acting Deputy Head of the Kyiv city state administration.

He believes that the new code will help solve the problem of liquidation of dilapidated houses and building in their place, modern buildings. If the new law is adopted, it is primarily with his help the authorities want to get rid of the numerous "," inconvenient to stay and have already exhausted their resources of strength. The Law introduces the concept of reconstruction of neighborhoods. If at least 10 percent of residents favor relocation, the old house can be demolished, the consent of the majority living in the new Code is not required. Those home owners who will agree to relocation, the government will try to ensure new living space as possible to the reconstructed house. In case of refusal of tenants to move, when making a decision on the demolition of old buildings, they will be evicted from the apartment occupied by the court. In this case, they may be proposed new housing in accordance with the law on involuntary resettlement under public necessity ", that is, within the same locality, or a court may decide to pay cash compensation corresponding to the market value of housing. In any case, when moving the deterioration of housing legislation is not provided – tenants will be given apartments in the area of not less than occupied previously.

It is mainly modern and should not be defined as national or regional despite containing some typical elements of the area, but they are a “garment” which smooths external rather geometrization, the schematic and functionality of this building that could define itself as a railway architecture, with a completely classic pattern with very few concessions to the loss of that utilitarianism own railway station. Use the pattern typical of a U-terminus, comprising a central body and two side enclosed and protected space of tracks and platforms, ship it was protected by a large arched metal roof formed rivets, following a tradition close enough still started in the Universal Exhibition of 1855 and 1867, a tradition that was evolving and taking other excellent examples like the Gallery of Machines Exhibition Paris, 1878 (armor Dion) or as in the Paris Universal Exhibition of 1889. An example would be much closer to Madrid Atocha station used by the De Dion system. This great engineering work, led by engineer E. Grasset and workshops held in Madrid located at Avenida de Valladolid street or highway before Pardo, filled with admiration for Valencia.

But for some people it may have the disadvantage that there are too many options to study and they are all elements which may be pleasing, therefore making a final decision can be a very difficult task and there is a problem to choose, that the solution to this problem is a comprehensive analysis of what we can offer each field of study, both at the time of the actual conduct of studies, such as fields of action in the workplace, and only after doing this can be taken a decision that fits with what each person looks. As a means of contributing to the task of research and subsequent election of a subject of study in this article was talking about studying social work as a good choice to develop studies that provide access to knowledge useful to the working lives to suit the tastes, abilities and expectations that people have.

Entering fully the issue of studying social work as an option for education, it is a diploma that lasts three years, where they constantly must be made hours of practice the theoretical knowledge acquired in class, as the practices start at the first level, taking into account that this type of study is mainly applied in social situations, which leads to the need for carrying out many practices to include better training of students, so the development of the task to study social work can make up to 400 hours of practice. Perhaps check out Professor Rita McGrath for more information. Studying social work is basically a development option of professional knowledge, which is helping a number of individuals and social groups in solving the various problems that may occur, systematic and professional manner, with the idea of avoiding the greatest extent possible the submission of any failures.

Fashion: Balance Between Innovation And Usability "

By Mike Van Dike

To interpret the direction of fashion is not easy, big companies forget innovation and fall into the auto-repeat imitating themselves. Other collections offer too bold to end up falling into the fallacy of innovation: something like only to focus on the artistic side of fashion forgetting the practical side and usability of clothing and accessories. All we would say that we prefer a balance between usability and innovation but where is that balance? It is possible that prior to the system equilibrium theory of fashion, we can exemplify with certain collections of firms that fail, but we prefer the long way. Fashion is not easy, or improvised, nor is it arbitrarily mix until a dress clothes that cost customers hundreds of thousands and the firm will represent exorbitant profits. Fashion, far from being a bubble in space, must live together in perfect harmony with the historic environment plays it, but is inevitably doomed to oblivion and perish. This is perhaps one of the first postulates that helps us understand and develop the theory of balance between innovation and usability. Robert J. Shiller often says this.

This statement would come from those who correspond mostly to the realm of usability. The colors that vibrate in each period are the colors that celebrate the time. The information that fashion reflects not only the circulating in the environment, what fashion is retranslated it, we think that what we have is a piece of reality, this cut of reality which best represents us. We do not choose our clothes in a selfless, we chose based on the wealth of knowledge we have of the world, the clothes we wear tells us as much as the places we frequent and the words we use. We are something different from what we use.

The cuts and textures are born and not elected as volunteers, represent and symbolize pieces of reality. That’s what I call the architecture of fashion. This concept of architecture, at one point is clear: making fashion ideas, forms and concepts used by the architectural trends of a given time. But that’s not all, involves feedback, but feedback spiral where falling in the middle third factor: the visual arts and clearly (more so these days), industrial design. Perhaps this is a good start to understand fashion as a social fact in combination with historical facts and living with some of the disciplines that are his muse and which is also muse. I do not think be able to explain in a holistic fashion that called social fact, but I can show how fashion is not independent of other phenomena. I can not explain why fashion as a social fact is the way that they have, but I can suggest that things are not like that because. I can think to suggest that fashion, not as innocent or as a refuge from the pain and inequality in the world, but as part of a whole that is called society, and within it the differences are played out there and governing that the outside is a real out here but that hides a inside. I hope my words can make us see fashion as an objectified part of society and perhaps in that part which reflects the more social distance between those most and those least able. To see more posts:
