AbstractNon-therapeutic body modification interventions are permitted within the limits of the use of one’s own body that can be specified in the legal system. The authors take into consideration Italian regulation on tattooing and piercing, in particular in relation to adolescents.ResultsIn Italy, several regions have therefore issued acts aimed at regulating the activities of tattoo and piercing also in reference to minors. Discussion. With regard to minors, the rules taken into account set precise limits in relation to the age criterion and subordinate the implementation of such practices to the provision of consent by legal representatives.ConclusionIf such practices are of an aesthetic nature, we cannot avoid considering the implications they have on health protection, and then adopt appropriate measures to protect the person who intends to undergo them, particularly in the case of minors.

This chapter explores rehearsals, asking what they represent practically and philosophically and when does practice in rehearsals yield to the finished product of a dance ready for public viewing. It considers the hours of labor, failure, and interruption that constitute life in the rehearsal studio as the dancer is shaped by the choreographer and rehearsal director. Rehearsals are considered in contrast to the rules of inviolability protecting a finished performance. Using Ballet 422 by Justin Peck as a case study and examples from reality TV and films to paintings, rehearsal rooms are explored as places of hidden preparation, visual pleasure, and the imaginary as well as fascination for audiences. Ballet dancers are taught to survey themselves through mirrors, the eyes of rehearsal directors, video cameras, and iPhones as ever-expanding systems of surveillance. Although ballet dancers spend the majority of their professional lives in rehearsals, the nature of what goes on in the rehearsal studio has too rarely been the focus of dance studies scholarship.

Ever since the corona pandemic hit the world with full rancour, people have gone into hiding thus restricting movement in all spheres, bringing their movement to a halt. It has been extrapolated since ages that movement of masses is the essence of economics. A man moves to earn, to seek visual pleasure, to seek social contact and as such the freedom to move freely, is both a legal and fundamental right, guaranteed under the Indian Constitution. The following research article aims to study the socio-legal aspect of restricted or altered human movement brought about by the pandemic and its effect on the tourism and hospitality industry. The study findings include the immense loss which the industry has suffered as result of the pandemic, followed by the path forward in terms of the new trends which may emerge in the year 2021, to cope with the loses. A further scope of study in the stated research topic may include developing fail-safe systems as method of check and balance to keep the tourism and hospitality industry afloat, in the event of such unforeseen crisis.

Dengan perkembangan teknologi yang semakin maju bentuk dari bodi sebuah kendaraan sangatlah diperhitungkan untuk mencapai tujuan-tujuan tertentu. Untuk itu, dilakukan analisis Aerodinamika pada pemukaan bodi mobil listrik gaski dengan menggunakan perangkat lunak Ansys 14.5, yang bertujuan untuk mengetahui aliran fluida dan nilai koefisient drag pada mobil listrik Gaski bodi standar dan modifikasi. Setelah proses analisis dilakukan, didapatkan hasil velocity udara maksimum body standar sebesar 17,4324 m/s dan body modifikasi sebesar 17,7321 m/s dan pressure maksimum yang terjadi pada mobil listrik Gaski body standar sebesar 83,2143 Pa, dan minimum sebesar -189,879 Pa. sedangkan pressure maksimum yang terjadi pada mobil listrik Gaski body modifikasi sebesar 83,2143 Pa. dan minimum pressure diperoleh -182,128 Pa. nilai Koefisient drag dari mobil listrik Gaski body standar sebesar 0,00474 sedangkan pada body modifikasi sebesar 0,00407. Dari hasil peneletian tersebut didapatkan bahwa setalah dilakukan modifikasi pada bodi mobil listrik gaski terdapat beberapa perubahan diantaranya terjadi peningkatan kecepatan laju aliran udara atau velocity udara meningkat 1,72 % sedangkan tekanan yang diterima oleh bodi setelah dimodifikasi menurun 1,39 % dan Nilai koefisien drag pada mobil listrik gaski dapat diturunkan 14,14 % setelah dimodifikasi.Kata Kunci : kata kunci : Aerodinamika, aliran fluida, bodi kendaraan, With the technological development of the more advanced form of the body of a vehicle is very calculated to achieve certain goals. For that purpose, Aerodynamic analysis was performed on the electric car body surface by using Ansys 14.5 software, which aims to find out the fluid flow and coefficient value of drag on electric car Gaski standard body and modification. After the analysis process is done, the result of the maximum air velocity of the standard body is 17,4324 m / s and body modification of 17,7321 m / s and the maximum pressure happened to electric car Gaski body standard equal to 83,2143 Pa, 189,879 Pa. While the maximum pressure that occurs on electric cars Gaski body modification of 83.2143 Pa. And the minimum pressure obtained -182.128 Pa. Coefficient value of drag from electric car Gaski body standard of 0,00474 while at body modification equal to 0,00407. From the results of the research was found that after modification on the body of electric car gaski there are some changes such as increase the speed of air flow rate or air velocity increased by 1.72%, while the pressure received by the body after modification decreased 1.39% and the value of drag coefficient on Electric car gaski can be derived 14.14% after modified.keyword : Keywords : Aerodynamic, fluid flow rate, Vehicle body.

Im Zusammenhang mit manuell durchgeführten und bleibenden Veränderungen an sich selbst, sog. Body Modifications, prüfte die Vormundschaftsbehörde Zürich gemeinsam mit dem Stadtärztlichen Dienst auf Antrag eines Verwandten der Explorandin, ob vormundschaftliche Massnahmen zu errichten seien, um die Explorandin vor weiteren Veränderungen an ihrem Körper schützen zu können. Die juristische und medizinische Begutachtung ergab, dass die Explorandin als urteilsfähig bezüglich der an ihrem Körper vorgenommenen Veränderungen zu gelten hat und keine weiteren Massnahmen notwendig sind.
