How do indicators of Health and Wellness and Ecosystem Sustainability relate? Can we predict how healthy a population is by looking at what their environmental impact is?
Bones are living tissues which undergo remodeling, a process which is important to maintain balance to ensure healthy bone mass density and avoid fractures throughout our lives. Collagen provides the organic framework in bones on which minerals are deposited and also contribute to bone flexibility and strength.
Calcium, vitamin D and protein are the key bone health nutrients. Collagen is essential for improving bone flexibility, which helps bones absorb impact. As a pure protein, Peptan collagen peptides work together with calcium and vitamin to support bone health.
Supplements with collagen peptides can strengthen bones as documented in multiple in vitro, in vivo and clinical trials. Peptan Research has shown that collagen peptides can stimulate the endogenous production of collagen in bone tissue, triggering osteoblasts (bone formation cells) and increasing bone size and firmness.

A summary of the presentations made during our SMART-Drop door drop seminar in which better targeting of leaflet distributions was demonstrated. This also reduces wastage and provides an improved ROI.
The document discusses the typography, layout, and design elements used in an NHS informational leaflet. It notes that a sans serif font is used to indicate clear reading and that only two fonts are used throughout in variations of blue, which works well with the NHS color palette and conveys calmingness. Reasonably sized fonts are used on front and inner pages with bold headings to help the reader navigate. Pictures and text are evenly spaced and don't distract from the purpose of providing information. References to other sources of information are also included to guide readers.
This document is a patient information leaflet that summarizes a Section 2 of the Mental Health Act 1983. It explains that the patient has been detained in a mental health hospital based on the assessment of two doctors and an approved mental health practitioner that they are experiencing mental illness. The patient can be kept in the hospital for up to 28 days under Section 2 and may receive treatment and support from doctors, nurses, and other professionals to address their condition. It outlines the patient's rights while detained, including appeal processes and involvement of their nearest relative and care coordinator if applicable.
The leaflet uses clear text and pictures to convey its message about substance abuse effectively. It has an obvious pop art design to attract readers and shows testimonials from people who have used the support service, which would encourage others considering it. The leaflets handle the sensitive topic delicately for different audiences, using child-friendly images and language for younger people while addressing older groups with more appropriate terminology and relatable images.

2015 FOSS4G Track: Integrating FOSS4G Into a Government Web-Editing Applicati...GIS in the Rockies
U.S. Geological Survey National Geospatial Technological Operations Center is building a suite of vector web-editing (VWE) applications for data collection and maintenance of The National Map (TNM) data. Initially built with a proprietary geospatial software architecture, VWE has integrated FOSS4G into the software architecture, including Leaflet, Esri-Leaflet, and GeoServer. Instead of entirely replacing proprietary geospatial software, VWE has adopted a hybrid architecture, mixing open and proprietary software products. This hybrid approach allows VWE to leverage the strengths of each software product for specific requirements and business rules in the different VWE applications and work within pre-existing TNM data management processes and workflows.

wider health promotion remit.
The Welsh Government’s lease on the Ffynnon Las building where the Health Promotion
Library is currently situated expires on 1st
April 2012, and from this date the Health
Promotion Library will be located in accommodation in Churchill House, Churchill Way
Cardiff.
New contact details will be made available to customers by the end of February 2012.
These will be available on the Health Promotion Library’s web site at
www.wales.gov.uk/healthpromotionlibrary and a flyer with the details will also be available
for all visitors to the library. Please contact us if you would like to receive copies of the flyer
with the new library details.
To give staff time to sort out the library move we need to make changes to our usual
opening times. From February 1st
2012 the library and the leaflet order line will be open
09:00 - 12:00 only. The Library will be closed in the afternoons. To help us in this process
customers are asked where possible to email enquiries and orders for health leaflets by
email to hplibrary@wales.gsi.gov.uk
From 1st
March 2012 the Library will be closed to all customers for the final move to the
new premises in Churchill House where we will, subject to completion of transfer
arrangements, re-open on the 1st
April 2012.
We are sorry for any inconvenience to our customers during this process, and will do
everything we can to continue to provide you with the information and leaflets you need.
We look forward to welcoming you to our new accommodation in Churchill House from the
1st
April 2012.

Y Llyfrgell Hybu Iechyd a Llinell Archebu Taflenni Her Iechyd Cymru
Mae’r Gweinidog Iechyd a Gwasanaethau Cymdeithasol wedi cymeradwyo trosglwyddo’r
Llyfrgell Hybu Iechyd o Lywodraeth Cymru i Ymddiriedolaeth GIG Iechyd Cyhoeddus
Cymru.
Bydd staff a stoc craidd y Llyfrgell Hybu Iechyd yn trosglwyddo i Iechyd Cyhoeddus Cymru
a fydd yn defnyddio’r adnoddau i ddatblygu gwasanaethau hybu iechyd o fewn eu cylch
gwaith ehangach.
Bydd prydles Llywodraeth Cymru ar adeilad Ffynnon Las, cartref presennol y Llyfrgell, yn
dod i ben ar 1 Ebrill 2012, ac o’r dyddiad hwn bydd y Llyfrgell yn ei chartref newydd yn Nhŷ
Churchill, Ffordd Churchill, Caerdydd.
Bydd y manylion cyswllt newydd ar gael i gwsmeriaid erbyn diwedd Chwefror 2012. Fe’u
cyhoeddir ar wefan y Llyfrgell Hybu Iechyd: www.wales.gov.uk/healthpromotionlibrary a
bydd taflen gyda’r manylion hefyd ar gael i bawb sy’n ymweld â’r Llyfrgell. Cysylltwch â ni
os hoffech chi gael copïau o’r daflen sy’n nodi’r manylion hyn.
Er mwyn rhoi amser i’r staff wneud trefniadau i symud y Llyfrgell, bydd yn rhaid newid ein
hamseroedd agor arferol. O 1 Chwefror 2012, bydd y Llyfrgell a’r Llinell Archebu Taflenni
ar agor 09:00 - 12:00 yn unig a bydd y Llyfrgell ar gau bob prynhawn. Er mwyn ein helpu,
gofynnir i gwsmeriaid ddefnyddio e-bost i gysylltu â ni ynghylch ymholiadau neu archebion
taflenni iechyd, os oes modd. Ein cyfeiriad yw: hplibrary@wales.gsi.gov.uk
O 1 Mawrth 2012, bydd y Llyfrgell ar gau i’n holl gwsmeriaid er mwyn inni allu cwblhau’r
gwaith o symud i’n safle newydd yn Nhŷ Churchill, lle byddwn yn ailagor ar 1 Ebrill 2012,
yn amodol ar gwblhau’r trefniadau trosglwyddo.
Rydym yn ymddiheuro am unrhyw anhwylustod i’n cwsmeriaid yn ystod y broses hon, ond
yn y cyfamser byddwn yn gwneud popeth o fewn ein gallu i sicrhau eich bod yn cael yr
wybodaeth a’r taflenni y mae eu hangen arnoch.
Edrychwn ymlaen at eich croesawu i’n safle newydd yn Nhŷ Churchill o 1 Ebrill 2012.
