Leading the pack: Coca-Cola Oceania, Amatil to introduce 100 percent recycled plastic across leading NZ brands this year
01 Aug 2019 --- Coca-Cola Oceania and Coca-Cola Amatil have announced that all plastic bottles smaller than 1-liter and water bottles across all sizes will be made entirely from recycled plastic in New Zealand by the end of the year. These changes would mean that over half of the plastic bottles produced by Coca-Cola Amatil in New Zealand will be made from recycled plastic and include leading brands such as Coca-Cola, Sprite, POWERADE, Fanta, L&P, Kiwi Blue and Pump water.
Managing Director of Coca-Cola Amatil New Zealand, Chris Litchfield, said the increase in the use of recycled plastic in its bottles would dramatically reduce the amount of new plastic it uses in New Zealand.
"Our move to substantially increase the use of recycled plastic means we will avoid using around 2900 tons of new plastic and that's incredibly positive for our environment. Already all the bottles and cans we make can be recycled and this takes us a step further towards creating a truly circular economy," Litchfield notes.
New Zealand is one of the first countries to achieve and exceed Coca-Cola's global sustainable packaging goal to increase the use of recycled plastic, which aims to make all bottles with an average of 50 percent recycled content by 2030.
The commitment also goes beyond the Ministry for the Environment's Plastic Packaging Declaration as all of Coca-Cola Amatil and Coca-Cola Oceania's cans, glass and plastic bottles are already recyclable.
"As one of New Zealand's largest beverage companies, we have a responsibility to be part of the solution to the plastic waste crisis," Richard Schlasberg, General Manager of Coca-Cola Oceania says. "That is why over half of our plastic bottles will be made entirely from recycled plastic by the end of 2019."
"This is a big commitment to using more recycled plastic – one of the largest of its kind by a beverage company in New Zealand – and will significantly reduce the impact of our business on the environment," Schlasberg adds.
The initiative is part of Coca-Cola's global commitment to a World Without Waste, which aims to collect and recycle the equivalent of every bottle or can it sells globally by 2030. Both Coca-Cola Oceania and Coca-Cola Amatil have committed to the Ministry for the Environment's Plastic Packaging Declaration.
Last September, Coca-Cola Amatil – one of the biggest beverage producers in the Asia Pacific region has launched the SyLon Sports closure, a custom solution for new Powerade bottles. The closure has improved recyclability as all three components are made of the same high-density polyethylene material, creating a cleaner recycling stream. It is an Australian-grown innovation which was designed, tested and prototyped by the Amatil Packaging Services Division in Eastern Creek, Sydney.
Coca-Cola Oceania and Coca-Cola Amatil NZ support several grassroots initiatives to help collect and recycle beverage containers including Sea Cleaners, The Public Place Recycling Scheme and the Band Together anti-litter campaign.
Global sustainability progress
Last week, Coca-Cola announced several recent milestones in its World Without Waste program. The progress includes:
- Bottlers worldwide continue to introduce more brands in 100 percent recycled PET (rPET) packaging. Recent launches include the green tea brand Hajime Ichinichi Ippon in Japan; the Romerquelle and Valser water brands in Austria and Switzerland, respectively; Viva water in the Philippines; and San Luis water in Peru. In Western Europe, 100 percent rPET bottles will be launched for smartwater, Chaudfontaine and Honest by the end of 2019.
- Coca-Cola Amatil and Coca-Cola Australia announced that 70 percent of all PET bottles in the market will be made from 100 percent rPET by the end of 2019.
- Coca-Cola European Partners and Coca-Cola Great Britain announced a switch from green to clear bottles for Sprite in their markets as a way to improve recycling. Other markets are making this change as well.
- Coca-Cola Beverages Philippines, the bottling arm of Coca-Cola in the Philippines, announced that it will lead the investment in a US$19 million state-of-the-art, food-grade recycling facility that will collect, sort, clean and wash post-consumer recyclable plastic bottles and turn them into new bottles using advanced technology. It is Coca-Cola's first major investment in a recycling facility in Southeast Asia.
- Coca-Cola Vietnam led the launch of an industry-backed packaging recovery organization alongside other companies. The organization will initially focus on increasing recovery and recycling rates for three materials: PET, aluminum and Tetra Pak.
Last month, Coca-Cola announced that its GLACÉAU smartwater bottles will be made from 100 percent rPET by the end of the year in a move that is expected to remove 3,100 tons of virgin plastic from circulation. Coca-Cola in Great Britain also confirmed that it is on track to double the amount of rPET used in all other plastic bottles across its 20 brands to at least 50 percent in early 2020.
Also, Coca-Cola is replacing the current iconic green Sprite bottle with a clear pack to make it easier to recycle back into new drinks bottles. The change, which will come into effect from September this year, is a further sign of the company's commitment to supporting recycling and the circular economy in this country. Sprite will also increase the amount of rPET in its bottles to 50 percent by next year.

A is for ....
A is for Award. And this one was given to me by the lovely Paula Rodriguez at paulawannacracker. Hurray!!! (And I finally learnt how to link! )
Paula is looking great after losing 30lbs so far and working hard on improving her eating at the moment. Her's is an honest blog - trying to be careful with what you eat is not easy, especially with a large family to entertain. I think Paula is often too hard on herself because she's actually doing an amazing job. Cheer her on if you're not already.
A is for Appreciation. If you appreciate great writing then you will love Green Stone Woman's new Writing Blog. Her writing is quite exceptional. Check out "Rituals" posted on Oct 28th. Paragraphs 3 and 4 particularly put me in mind of Ted Hughes' "Lovesong". See what you think. She has also set up a new Art Blog where you seriously want to check out those sculptures. My favourite is Bog Woman, but The Frog is pretty amazing too. Of course Nora continues to write her daily journaling blog too. In her post this morning, her wish was that people would follow her new writing blog, so let's wave the magic wand and make her wish come true.
A is also for Anger and Appropriate. As in, Is anger an appropriate response to someone else's pain? I have read several bloggers writing about the anger they feel when someone else is depressed. Especially if the pain is so severe the person actually feels suicidal. Apparently a suicidal person is particularly deserving of these people's anger and disgust. Yes, the word disgust has been used in this context. One blogger actually wrote that she was "offended" by other people's pain. Offended???? WTF??? And these people call themselves Christians?
Can anger and disgust ever be appropriate responses to other people's pain?
For example, if you are very overweight you have possibly at some time been on the receiving end of someone else's anger over this issue. It may have been your parents, your partner, even a complete stranger in the street. Did you find this remotely appropriate? Remotely helpful? Chances are you found someone else's anger directed at you a crushing experience. At the very least it's highly unpleasant that someone else seeks to increase your pain over this issue. Why would they do that? Does it make sense? Does it achieve anything?
Why do some people feel intense anger when someone says openly that they are depressed? Or suicidal? What does that anger signify? There could be various factors at play here, but the most obvious candidate is denial. Denial of their own pain. To some people, admitting that they have such negative emotions is too frightening for them. They want to stuff those feelings down. Pretend they don't exist. Those feelings are linked with feelings of their own inadequacy and lack of self esteem. Some people prefer to block this stuff out of their mind. It gives them a feeling of superiority, after all, that they have been able to "overcome" (supposedly) the causes of their pain, and not "give in" to those feelings.
Why do overweight people in particular often bear the brunt of other people's inappropriate anger? Well, as we know, excess weight is often pain made highly visible. Unlike alcoholism, or drug taking for example, which are not immediately apparent when the person walks down the street, the compulsive eater's pain is there for all the world to see at all times.
So people are trying to distance themselves from their own pain when they look down on someone else who is obviously in pain. And an inadequate ego will always get a boost from feeling superior to other people of course.
I remember when I did a creative therapy class some years ago, and before the first session when we were all in the reception area waiting to go in, a woman in the group proclaimed very loudly that "People think that to come here there must be something wrong with you". And she went on to explain (to her highly embarrassed listener) that there was nothing wrong with her. Of course not. Like she was just there for the craic.
Fact is that everyone attending that group had been diagnosed with depression.
She told me in no uncertain terms that she was not depressed. And evidently felt that because of this she was rather superior to the rest of us. She was not mentally ill. She was not one of us. She then proceeded to paint a very large piece of paper entirely in very dark grey and black. Yeah, I thought, you're so not depressed.
Being British, no-one in the group mentioned it. Every time this poor deluded woman dropped another clanger (supposedly demonstrating her own psychological superiority to the rest of us) there was much raising of eye brows, shaking of heads and knowing smiles exchanged.
Thing is, this woman was the most depressed person in the group by a very long chalk. Her desperate attempts to bolster her own flagging ego only signalled the enormous hole she was in emotionally.
For the other members of the group, treating this woman as a figure of fun (in their own heads) served to stop them (to some extent) being hurt from the message that this woman was transmitting ie you are worth less as a human being if you are depressed, if you suffer from mental illness, if you are in psychological pain. We tried to insulate ourselves from her opinion that we were unacceptable and weak; less than "normal" people. We tried not to allow her to increase our pain.
This woman's feelings of disgust towards herself could have had a very destructive effect on other people. And possibly did in other situations.
Her unfortunate, hurtful behaviour towards us was really to do with her feelings about herself. Ie feeling that she was worthless, unacceptable and "less than" other people.
Appropriate responses to other people's pain are things like empathy, offering comfort, understanding, making suggestions to ease the situation, telling a story from your own experience of how you dealt with something similar, or simply listening (or reading).
Inappropriate responses are anger, disgust, feelings of superiority. These responses say a lot about the person feeling them and zip all about the person they are aimed at.
OK. I finished ranting now. Me, angry??!! That would be so inappropriate ....
In other news, The Bear has been suddenly demanding my attention after virtually no contact for quite a while. I have seen him every day the last three days. And we have had a lovely walk each evening. I also went on a walk on Monday evening on my own.
I was surprised that he was in quite good shape psychologically despite a bit of a crisis - which required my help and support. I really have loved spending a bit of time with him. Spending time with him helps me be more accepting of myself, because he accepts me totally and unconditionally. He is the only person in the real world I trust (I say in the real world because obviously I trust you lot).
My eating - rubbish. All rubbish. Massive eating every day. But at least my exercise levels have improved. And that is really necessary considering I will be walking a very large steep hill to see my healer on Monday.
I am feeling a little better in myself. Your comments have been very supportive and helpful. Between you lot and The Bear and my healer, I hope to crawl out into the light any time soon ...
Thank you.

What a great post again! You're so right about people trying to distance themselves from other people's problems by expressing and maybe genuinely feeling disgust and anger! I've never really understood how people can find comfort in cultivating a sense of superiority to others, but there's no denying a lot of people do. I guess in my case I don't bother with that because the things that make me feel bad about myself are almost always down to failing to live up to my own expectations of myself - I don't need to compare myself to external people with that critic living inside my head taking up all my energy!
Its great to hear you sounding so much more positive in this post! Obviously the exercise and company are really good for you, and far more important than sticking to any arbitrary diet plan at the moment.
Insightful post. I agree that others' reactions and opinions about who, what and how we are reflect about them, not about us. When my kids were younger and would come home upset because someone had been mean to them or teased them, I would tell them that what others' think of us is really not about us. It's about them. This whole idea is at the core of bullying, which is a terrible problem in schools in the US. A kid hates him/herself deep down so the strategy of belittling and even tormenting and terrorizing other kids (or a vulnerable "one" in particular) comes to the fore. The bully has no clue of his/her motivation - but inflicts pain and fear on certain victims.ReplyDelete
The afflictions of mental illness, essential lonliness, extreme emptiness, self hatred, post traumatic stress or any number of other self diminishing states manifest differently in different people. Some are emboldened with courage to put the truth out there regardless of how unappealing and off-putting it may be to other folks. I admire this quality of ruthless honesty some possess - to tell your own truth in the face of possible rejection or lack of acceptance. You have this ruthless honesty, BF. And it can be hard to read and hear for some people for a lot of reasons, ranging from fear of acknowledging and accepting their own pain, to their religious beliefs, to their feelings of powerlessness to really help; and countless other reasons.
Other people similarly afflicted may have a brand of coping that requires the psyche's attempt to bolster itself through denying it's own truth and judging others who "wear their afflictions" in the more public way. The bully is the extreme version of this, but the subtler version is the one you speak of, BF. The subtler version of distancing oneself from another's pain as a mechanism to avoid one's own.
As usual, you bring up a very thoughtful issue, and you speak your truth about it. I wish I had more brass sometimes to express my real reactions to things that anger me. I'm fine with ranting about institutions and injustices, but when I feel unheard or unaccepted or wrongly interpreted, (or jealous, left out...)I know I can tend to go to that fault finding jugemental mindset that enables me to rise above the hurt. Just yesterday a friend mentioned she was having dinner with 3 other AA folks to celebrate someone's AA anniversary, and I felt a zing of "Why wasn't I included? Well, I don't even like so and so anyway..." Basically a bunch of mental bullsh*t to make myself feel better for not being asked along. Pretty juvenile, but there it is. Obviously this topic tweaked me to send me into this looong comment.
Glad to hear you're getting out and about and connecting with the Bear. Guard your heart while keeping it open. Connection with others, in person, is a good thing.

I think perhaps when people respond to depression or obesity or pain with feelings of disgust or anger, it is because they think the object of their wrath is being selfish. I only say this because it's what I used to feel before I understood the idea of compassion. No matter the cause of a person's illness, responding compassionately (even to the woman in your group that's in denial) brings a certain level of peace. Maybe this understanding develops more in some (ahem, me) as we age?ReplyDelete
Hi! Just surfing new blogs today and found yours. Very interesting reading. I'm looking forward to more. CheersReplyDelete
As is usual, you show a lot of insight and understanding into the behavior and motivations of other people. It's good that you have this insight and understanding, because, in the end, you can't help but apply it to yourself and your own situation and I hope you do it with the same amount of compassion that you show other people. You are a worthy cause to apply it to.ReplyDelete
Congratulations on the award. :o) I can understand why you were/are so angry to read that people are 'disgudted' by those who are suffering from suicidal thoughts. A close friend of mine, who had SEVERE depression (as a result of years of childhood sexual abuse) that brought on scizophrenia (please forgive me if I've misinterpreted that, but I'm sure that's what we were told at her funeral) finally succeeded in committing suicide about 3 years ago after several previous unsuccessful attempts. I couldn't do anything to help her, other than be her friend, and I just hope she's in a much better place now...ReplyDelete
Friend of BearReplyDelete
I truly enjoy reading your blog. With each post you educate me in matters of the psyche. I agree with Amy's comments. As I have gotten older, I have learned to have empathy and compassion for others. Even when I don't understand. For example, "suicide". I used to think suicide was about anger. Anger at a particular person. When my friend's son committed suicide after his girlfriend broke up with him, I thought... this kid was angry.. "like you'll see when I'm gone [[insert reasons here]]. I couldn't understand how this boy of 16 could kill himself in his mother's garage. Did he not think of her pain in finding him? Again, because I couldn't understand... I summed it up to him being angry.
You have a good knowledge of psychology and continue to educate me with each post. Thank you. This is why I you so deserve THE BEST BLOG AWARD.
Have a great weekend.
Strike out that last sentence in my previous post. THIS IS WHY YOU SO DESERVE THE BEST BLOG AWARD... There. I just wanted to clarify.ReplyDelete
Congratulations on the award - it is much deserved.ReplyDelete
I have learned a lot from you in reading your blog about psychology and the workings of the mind. You are so articulate and introspective.
Your ability to see inside of people can only serve you well as you make your own journey.
- Anonymous1 November 2009 at 01:58
Congratulations on the well deserved award. I love reading your posts because you are amazingly intuitive about other people and the way they think or see things. Sad as it my be or as much as it makes me angry, I think you made some excellent points.ReplyDelete
It is not right and makes very little sense. There is a great deal of compassion missing in our society when it comes to being overweight or for mental health issues. I read the article Glenn Close wrote in the Huffington Post about the Stigma of Mental Health and the new group Bring Change 2 Mind, but it is a double whammy for obese people. Compassion and understanding is the key, but how we get there is the million dollar question.
I have awards for you over at my place, please come and get them.ReplyDelete
Congrats to you for the award....so well-deserved!!ReplyDelete
I don't know about society as a whole, but I know why I have my own anger towards my sister and the whole suicidal thing. She has schizophrenia. She's in her 30's and started developing it about 6 years ago. There's a very specific date where something went "click" in her head and things have gone downhill ever since. In the last 6 months, things have been really bad, but I think we might finally have her on the right dose of the right medicine now, as she's showing tiny glimpses of improvement.
I don't direct my anger AT her specifically. As far as she knows, I'm completely loving and accepting, always trying to help her in any way I can. But internally....I had to trace my anger back to the source. After all, how can you be angry at someone for something they cannot help?
The reason is simple. I'm helpless. I'm very much a type-A person who when presented with a problem, immediately goes into a mode where I want to solve the problem as quickly as possible. However, I'm also highly emotional and many times, these 2 do not mix well. When you mix handing me a problem, like my sister's schizophrenia, with me being so emotional, and we're talking about my flesh-and-blood sister here, you get some serious anger. I want to help her. I want to fix her. I want to heal her. I want my baby sister back. But the Amy I knew is vacant. And it kills me. It really does.
However, I know that with the right meds, a person stricken with schizophrenia can lead fairly normal lives. That's what I pray for. I continuously pray that it won't go the other way, and she won't kill herself, leaving her 2 children behind.
I can also say, the more I understand, and the more I reach out to busy her mind more than "the voices" do, the more my anger is replaced with real hope and the utmost compassion.
Does any of this make any sense to you? lol Wow what a long ramble!! :)

Everyone who collects wine, whether it's just a few bottles in a wine rack, or a basement wine cellar, or a professional storage facility, takes a certain amount of risk. In this episode, David talks with Cindy Lewis and James Nunno of Nunno Wine Storage and Services in Paso Robles, about both safety and innovative temperature controls they employ.
Next, David and Sara Schneider, the Wine Editor of Sunset Magazine, test some very old wines recently gifted to Grape Encounters. They are joined by special guest Annie Wilson, and experiment using the Coravin Wine Access System to extract tastes through the cork without affecting the integrity (or not) of the wine inside the bottle. Lesson learned: if you are storing wine for long periods of time, don't leave them in a closet in the desert.
Also David sneaks in a very informative account of the origins of Madeira. Next David and Wine Guru Wilfred Wong talk about the difference between estate grown and sourced grapes. What exactly are the pros and cons? As always, Wilfred has plenty of juicy tidbits of information to share.

Canada's instructions for children's passports can be found here.
After Birth
You get the choice of requesting the short or long form birth certificate. Infants now require proof of parentage to get a Canadian passport, so you must get the long form birth certificate (or other similar document)!
The Application
Follow the instructions for the passport here.
The Passport Photo
This is the most complicated part of the passport application process, especially with a very small infant. Keep in mind, Keladry was just over one month old at the time of the photo. So here are some things that worked for us:
- change diaper to wake the infant up
- feed the infant to make them happy
- wrap a receiving blanket around the infant
- place one hand around the infant's torso, supporting the chest, under the blanket
- the other hand can go under their bum
- lean them against the white background – this supports the head (unless they can hold their head up on their own)
- get the photographer to keep taking pictures until the infant complains
Side note: do NOT bring a sheet to drape over yourself to hold the infant. It worked really well, except that there can't be wrinkles in the sheet…
Remember, although the infant's eyes need to be open and the head has to be upright (no tilting!), the mouth is allowed to be open.

|John Tucker was recorded as a tenant of Whitnell, Emborough in 1580 and members of the family appear in the records of Chewton Mendip up to the modern era. They are not shown as land owners in the 1794 map but they are shown to have estates in Widcombe and possibly East End and West End tithing. There are several references to members of the Tuckers in the Poor laws.

One of the most popular touring motorcycles from BMW is the R 1200 RT. Unlike the GS models, the RT models are particularly meant to stick to the tarmac and cross continents at will. But it has been around for a while (in the western markets). It was launched in India last year, along with the entire BMW Motorrad range. And now, a new and updated R 1200 RT has been spied testing somewhere in Europe. Reports suggest that the biggest change in the new R 1200 RT will be the engine. No, it will not get an all-new engine, but expect the power and displacement to get a bump. Currently, the R 1200 RT gets a 1,170 cc boxer twin, which makes around 123 bhp and 125 Nm of peak torque.
BMW might increase the displacement to 1,250 cc and the power to 150 bhp. If that happens, this will be the most powerful iteration of the BMW's famous boxer engine. Also, it could get variable valve timing or VVT, which will help the engine spread all the 150 horses better over the rev range and also offer better efficiency and emissions.
As far as cosmetic updates are concerned, the new R 1200 RT gets new screen mounts up front, a re-designed windscreen and a new fairing below the exhausts. The current model features old-school analogue instrumentation while the updated model will have a single-screen TFT unit with additional features such as navigation and smartphone connectivity.

To say that Prince William and his wife Kate Middleton's newborn's arrival has created quite a stir would be a massive understatement. The world watched in awe as the couple wed back in 2011, and since the announcement of Kate's pregnancy last year, that news propelled the couple even further into the public spotlight, with people from all parts of the world literally watching their every move.
The public's obsession with royals – where they vacation, what they're wearing, what names they give their children – is not a new phenomenon. Grace Kelly, an American actress, became the Princess of Monaco in 1956 when she married Prince Rainer III, which catapulted Kelly further into the public eye. It was a real-life princess story, and the whole world was watching. Princes Diana of Wales, Prince William's mother, was another royal who was thrust into the public spotlight. Her every move was watched, and millions of people worldwide mourned her death, despite her not even being their princess.
Today, perhaps more than ever before, royals are given celebrity status, and are followed by paparazzi just as frequently as actors and entertainers. Right now, Prince William and Princess Kate have attracted much media attention simply by welcoming their first child. According to Wales Online, "royal fever" is not a new trend, but with the arrival of the royal baby, Brits have been acting more excitable than ever before. The publication also explains that "Along with the hourly updates – news outlets have running blogs – the sheer volume of reports on people's anticipation has served to make us all obsessed with Kate's movements, emotions and, most of all, naming intentions." There are even apps being created to mark the movements of the royal baby, and reportedly, thousands of parents all over England and Wales refused to name their newborn until the royal baby name was released.
Another couple that have experienced similar attention is Andrea Casiraghi and Tatiana Santo Domingo. Casiraghi is the grandson of Princess Grace of Monaco, which meant that news of the couple's baby Sasha put a lot of pressure on the pair because of their celebrity status. Andrea and Tatiana are more free-spirited than most royals, and hope to avoid the pomp and circumstance that royal tradition and the public's expectations force upon royal couples like Prince William and Kate. Similarly, Andres Santo Domingo, Tatiana's uncle, and his wife Lauren try very hard to keep their children out of the press, despite their high profile status as "New York Royalty." In a day and age where the public obsesses over royal babies and their families, many couples have difficulty maintaining privacy.
Welcome, George Alexander Louis (the royal couple finally settled on a name)! We'll try not to obsess over your every move.

All you wanted to know about Travel Insurance!
Posted by Royal Sundaram on 30 Nov 2010
A Travel Insurance Policy means if you break your leg or fall ill when abroad, your insurer will take care of your bills. Travel Insurance also covers baggage loss, loss of travel documents like passport, visa etc. Apart from taking care of you when you are abroad, this policy also takes care of your Home in India while you are on the trip.
In this article we answer some of the commonly asked questions on this topic. Read on…
1. I am travelling abroad; I want to buy Travel Insurance which covers overseas health emergencies. Does the policy entitle me to a cashless facility or reimbursement?
Yes. You will be entitled to a cashless medical facility up to the sum insured amount for which you have insured yourself and your fellow travelers against medical emergencies. For more clarity do click here to read the policy features and benefits of our travel insurance product.
2. When I am abroad, in the case of a claim notification, whom should I contact?
In the case of a claim, you can contact the toll free numbers of your Service Providers in the country of your visit. If you are unable to contact the service provider and need additional support, you can contact the insurance company in India.
3. To what extent will I be able to avail of Medical Cover/ illness?
Your medical cover will be to the extent of sum insured that you may have opted for as per the plan and premium that you would have paid for. For example: If your sum insured is $50,000, you will be entitled to benefits as per this plan. Please ensure that you read the policy terms and conditions before you buy your travel insurance. Most of the insurance companies do not cover any pre-existing diseases that you might have had.
4. Does the insurance also cover any dental pain/ emergencies?
Dental emergencies are covered up to a certain limit, say $200. It would be prudent to check out what is available in the market and doing a quick browsing of general insurance websites will be able to give you the correct information.
5. If I buy regular travel insurance for a period of 180 days or more; will it help in covering my son/ daughter's overseas education related medical emergencies and other related coverage?
A student studying abroad may get certain medical benefits out of regular travel insurance, but will not be able to avail of additional features that are available in a Student Medical Travel insurance product. You may check out for Student Medical Travel insurance in the market.
6. Can I buy Travel Insurance that will offer protection and coverage for Single Trip and Multi Trips?
Yes. There are specific plans for Single Trip and Multi Trips
7. What are the procedures/steps involved in Travel Insurance; if I am applying Visa for a trip to Germany?
Usually Overseas Travel Insurance is common to all countries. But certain countries may have specific information about rules and regulations pertaining to your travel insurance, so please ensure that you go through these documents and then plan for your travel insurance.
8. I am an NRI living in Doha, will your overseas travel insurance policy allow me to buy the product and avail of all benefits arising out of Overseas Medical Cover?
An NRI cannot buy Overseas Medical Cover policies offered by Indian General Insurance Companies. Travel Insurance policies cover only trips made by Resident Indians from India to foreign countries. NRIs will get medical cover based on the rules and regulations of his/her employer in the country where work-permit has been given as per the local government's health policy.

For the fourth day in a row, President Donald Trump is saying strange things about a vague plan to arm teachers:
Armed Educators (and trusted people who work within a school) love our students and will protect them. Very smart people. Must be firearms adept & have annual training. Should get yearly bonus. Shootings will not happen again – a big & very inexpensive deterrent. Up to States.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 24, 2018
Previously Trump stated that he wanted to arm 20 percent of American teachers to be able to "immediately fire back if a savage sicko came to a school with bad intentions." It's not clear what "inexpensive" means in the context of a national program to pay teachers more money for packing heat, nor is it clear what "Up to States" means. But no matter how many Trump flogs it, the NRA myth of the "good guy with a gun" is still just a myth. That he's pushing it anyway doesn't bode well for the prospects of a good-faith debate about gun control.
Trump Doubles Down on Guns in Schools
"A teacher would have shot the hell out of him before he knew what happened," Trump said.

The Sailing of the Hawaii
©2010 D. Paul Angel
"Report?" asked Captain Barnes, in the privacy of his Ready Room, away from the rest of the CIC crew.
"I saw the flash, too, Captain. It lit up the entire Southern sky. Whatever it was, it was huge," reported Captain Barnes' First Officer Commander Locke.
"The radiation indicators are all pegged, Captain," Said his ship's Doctor Captain Imley. "With the dosage the crew got, I'd say 72 hours before the first symptoms show. Then, maybe another 72 before you'll have about 90% casualties. I'm sorry Captain." She added the latter with more concern for her patients than herself, even though she knew she would share their agony
"Chief?" he asked his Chief Engineer.
"Anything electronic is pretty much lost. Anything mechanical is still working. We lost the FADEC, but the mechanical interlocks engines on line again. Main turrets are working with the original pneumatic and mechanical systems. God bless 70 year old technology, eh? We don't have fire-control worth a shit, sir, but our main batteries can still reach out and touch anything in 30 miles, sir."
"Alright. Chief, Doc, I want you to go ahead and get back to your posts. No one is to speak one word of this. Not one. The electrical systems were burned out by a bus overload fault. It affected the radiation indicators, too. That's all."
"Sir, with all due respect...
"Go ahead Chief."
"Well, sir, in 30 years of the Navy, I've never heard of a, 'bus overload fault.'"
"Good. That's because I just made it up. But no one will tag to it for at least another 8 hours. And believe me, they'll be too busy to think about it. You two are dismissed. Jim, a word."
"Yes sir. Jim, I need you to make sure no one who was on the Bridge with you says anything about the flash. Understood?"
"Yes sir."
"And there's one more thing I'm going to need you to do."
"Of course."
"Don't be too eager, it's going to make you sick."
"Half-caff, grande soy, mocha. No whip," Admiral Ed Hutchinson said to the Barista at the world's most exclusive Starbuck's, deep inside the inner ring of the pentagon. As he took the cup, declining the ubiquitous sleeve, he noticed General Yates in a corner booth with a couple of civilians, laughing. Laughter was a rare enough thing in Pentagon, let alone with a couple of civilians. Yates shushed them as they left.
As a Marine General, Hutchinson was nominally his superior officer, but the vast schism in paperwork made it, ironically enough, more of a theory on paper than in real life. With his instincts twitched, however, Admiral Hutchinson decided that now was as good a time as any to insist. He followed them down the hall into General Yates' office.
He stood outside the door and held his breath for a moment. When more laughing erupted he burst through the door and, in the kind of booming "I am your GOD" voice that can be heard from one of a Battleship to another, demanded with righteous fury to know, "What in the Sam-Fucking Hell is going on?"
The three men stood immediately, and Hutchinson was pleased to see Yates look extremelu uncomfrotable. The man shriveled before him, even though the two civies did not. What in the Sam Hell is going on? he asked himself.
The civie on the left, the scrawny one with the expensive but badly rumpled suit looked over to the one on the right. The one who looked like a used car salesman at a Ferrari lot. They nodded, and the car salesmen type nodded to the professor type.
"I am Dr. Claude Daubert. This is Heinriech Jencks. I am Professor Emeritus at the American University in Psychology. Specifically, battlefield decision making. Mr. Jencks is a, shall we say, purveyor of fine weaponry?"
"Yates? What the Fuck? Yates?"
"Yates!" boomed Admiral Hutchison again as Yates looked anywhere but at him. Yates ran his hands over his head, down his chest, and fingered row after row of combat ribbons he had there.
"It's all I have, Admiral. All I know." He reached into a drawer, pulled out a flask with the Marine Logo on it and drank deeply.
"Admiral, I can explain. Frankly, it involves things well above even you, or likely anyone currently even in the building. If you would General Yates, the feed? It is, I believe, perfect timing"
As Yates typed on his computer, a live satellite feed appeared. At the center was a large ship in a smallish river. Hutchinson recognized it immediately as the Hawaii, his newest ship, and his oldest.
"Rebuilding a World War II Battlecruiser was a stroke of genius, Admiral. It's armor can withstand any of the current anti-ship missiles designed for sinking lightly built ships. Eighty year old mechanical technology which is unfazed by any EMP. She's perfect. And, as it happens, the type of weapons system that Mr. Jencks specializes in."
Hutchinson felt his skin grow cold. The tiny ship on the screen wasn't terribly detailed, but he recognized now that particular river bend, and knew that his ship, HIS Hawaii, was just outside Pyongyang. It should be off the Coast of N Korea, not in it, Godfuckindammit. As he watched, he saw it fire, and saw part of Pyongyang dissappear in a cloud of dust.
The professor looked at the monitor. "Based on the RNK response, I think they got there sooner than expected." He smiled broadly at Mr Jencks.
Dumbfounded Admiral Hutchinson looked at the smug little man. "Talk. Now," he said, already feeling the little man's throat in his hands.
Professor Daubert noticed the threat immediately, and accurately judging its seriousness, spoke. "Admiral, you must realize that America is at her best when she is fighting. Our Golden Ages have all come as a result of massive mobilization efforts. The problem with the Koreas, the Vietnams, and our most recent debacles in the Middle East stem from trying to go to war without decisive consensus. They are not 'Good' wars; like World War II was. So, we had to make one.
"Mr. Jencks built the largest conventional explosive, and General Yates, with many, many like minded officers, deployed it. The Hawaii's systems were sabotaged before she even left port. These stimuli that I carefully crafted and modelled made them believe that the fleet has been wiped out by a RNK nuclear weapon. They are, in their minds, retaliating."
"My God," was all Admiral Hutchinson could muster to say as he fought back nausea.
"Finally, since their radiation sensor was tweaked to show a lethal dose of radiation as well, this is not a mission from which any of them expect to return. In a few moments, when they're guns are either crippled or out of shells, they will scuttle their ship, choosing a quick, valiant death over the suffering agonies of radiation sickness. We have a war, it is righteous, and, when the RNK recovers the Hawaii, we shall have an opponent worth fighting against."
"We're expecting a hell of year Admiral. America is going to return to a Golden Age, General Yates won't be retired, and, well, there's still time to... ah... invest?"
"You set up my ship to start a war with the idea that she'll go down with all her crew and you expect my support? My Help? You sick sons of bitches!
The harsh bang of the forty-five filled the little office. General Yates returned the gun to it's holster, sat down, and took another sip from his flask.
Half a world away the echo of the gunshot reverberated.
Jim Locke stood over his dead Captain. The 9mm in his hand seemed to pull all of his weight with it in his grip. "The Captain sabotaged the ship as part of a plan to start a war." he said numbly. "Pull out immediately and head back to sea. All possible speed. Ensign, remove his body. He may have been a traitor, but he was a good Captain until then. At least afford him that respect."
The crew, stunned after the craziness of the last few hours, went back to the familiarity their stations and duties. It did, unfortunately, explain everything far too well.
"Uh, professor," said General Yates quietly, "What happens if the ship makes it out of North Korea and comes back safely?"

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (PRWEB) September 22, 2018
The health risks associated with heart disease, stroke, and cancer are well-known. Less well-known, however, is the serious health risk that particularly affects older adults – the risk of injury due to falling.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC):
Every second of the day and adult aged 65 and older falls in the United States. Every 12 seconds, one of these seniors is admitted to the emergency department for a fall; and every day 74 of those will die from a fall. Among older Americans, falls are the number one cause of injuries and death from injury.1
Anyone can fall. However, seniors are more prone to falling and tend to sustain significantly more serious injuries, such as hip fractures (more than 97% of which are caused by falling).2 This can lead to prolong hospitalization, reduced mobility, loss of independence and fear of falling again. The constant dread of another fall can become paralyzing, leading to reduced physical activity and ironically increasing the chance of future falls.
"When discussing fall prevention, everything from slippery floors, loose throw rugs, poor lighting, medication side effects, wet spots and pets have been cited as contributing to the growing tendency to fall as we age. Foot pain and foot problems, when mentioned, tend to be near the bottom of the list," said podiatric foot and ankle specialist Diane Branks, DPM, Vice President of the California Podiatric Medical Association.
"Since our feet are the foundation for our balance and mobility, it only makes sense that healthy feet would play a key role in helping to prevent falls," said Dr. Branks.
In a randomized clinical trial of foot care as a way to prevent falls, Australian researchers found that the volunteers that received foot care experienced 36 percent fewer falls than those in the control group that did not.3
Scientists have also linked several personal risk factors to falling, including muscle weakness in the lower extremities, problems with balance and gait; and foot problems that cause pain, can also increase the risk of falling.4
The foot and ankle is a highly complex structure, containing 26 bones (one-quarter of all the bones in the human body), 33 joints and more than 100 ligaments and tendons. These are all linked and served by a vast network of nerves, muscles, soft tissue and skin. All these components work in unison to provide the support, strength, flexibility and resiliency needed for things most people take for granted, such as balance and walking. Because of the area's intricacy, podiatric physicians who are rigorously educated in the medical treatment and care of the human foot and ankle play a vital role in keeping seniors on their feet and helping to prevent falls.
Dr. Branks, who is podiatric physician and surgeon on staff with Kaiser Permanente in Fontana, CA, said, "Podiatric physicians can access and treat foot pain; analyze and identify underlying biomechanical and gait abnormalities, prescribe corrective measures including custom orthotic devices and perform necessary surgeries"
Dr. Branks adds that podiatric physicians provide expert medical advice on foot health and care, can recommend exercise programs to increase foot and ankle strength and flexibility, and provide knowledgeable counsel on proper footwear.
"For seniors, good food health can be the difference between enjoyment or infirmity, active involvement or debilitating decline. Keeping our aging population active longer and more capable of caring for themselves is critical. Quality foot and ankle care provided by podiatric physicians is an important part of the equation," said Dr. Branks.

A 15 year old boy admitted raping a 14 year old girl after she passed
out drunk, after a late night of drinking beer that was provided by the
boy's mother.
The girl snuck out of her parents' home, near Hays Park, at almost
midnight and met the boy and his mother in the park. The mother drove them
to her home and gave beer to the girl, the boy, two of the
boy's friends and his two younger brothers.
While the children drank, one of the friends tried to touch the girl
unsuitably. She passed out and woke up nude around 4 a.m.
It was not immediately realized where the mother was during the party,
but she was about to drive the girl home when her son reportedly told the
girl she should see a doctor because they had sex while she was unaware.
The mother drove the agitated girl home, where the girl told her parents.
The girl's mother called the police.
One boy faces a second-degree rape charge and the other faces indecent
liberties. The other boys at the party were not questioned and did not seem
to be involved with the sexual activity.
It is not certain what will become of the boy's mother, but minimally
she's looking at providing alcohol to minors.

Those who walk at night and at dusk must be visible. Not only for themselves, but also for others.
"A headlamp is the simplest and most important gadget of all," says Cindy from Runfurther, "in fact with lights in front and behind," adds ultra runner Sandra. The headlamp also helps in a competition such as the ISPO Munich Night Run 2020 on 25 January. Cindy also recommends light-colored clothing and reflectors to pin on or running clothes that have already incorporated reflective elements.
If this is too boring for you, you can use Reflective Marking Spray like Isabell and Laura and at the same time spread good spirits and funny (love) messages.
In order to prevent injuries, it is advisable, especially in winter, to prepare the muscles and avoid the typical cold start.
Especially morning runners like Trailcoach Jules should therefore stay under the blanket for a few minutes longer without remorse: "I always stretch myself directly in bed. The muscles are still nice and warm and it's much more comfortable than outside."
In order to keep the warm feeling as long as possible, she also puts her shoes and running gear under the heating the night before and rolls her feet on a golf ball before starting to run, in order to stimulate the blood circulation.
Willi, Captain of the adidas Runners Munich says: "In snow I use a normal shoe. As soon as it freezes, I reach for a shoe with a good profile". This is usually enough, confirms Sandra, who never wears spikes herself, because they are not allowed in the competition anyway and therefore she does not train with them at all.

NICE SLIPPERY WINTER RUN. Heute war die Welt in Ordnung, mein Lauf in der Mittagspause, in Begleitung der Sonne und guter Musik. Ob es glatt war ? Ich würde sagen heute wäre der perfekte Lauf für meine Icebugs gewesen 💃🏼💃🏼 Etwas vorsichtige schöne 10 km durch den Englischen Garten 🔥 Am Wochenende greifen wir dann die 24 km an 💪🏼 #marathoncalling . . . . . [Werbung] @jblaudio_de #letsoundtakeover #jnry19challenge #runhappy #wearemarathoners #runnersofinstagram #berge #training #alpen #mountains #follow #team10000schritte #beatyesterday #trailrunning #motivation #münchen #training #laufen #running #munichblogger #runningblogger #blogger_de #blogger_muc #munich #marathon #halbmarathon #runninggirl #gopro #goprohero7
... Cindy puts it in a nutshell and advises to scale down the ambition and to raise the attentiveness, namely in the dark, as well as in the cold. Especially in open terrain and on trails you can't see unevenness or you detect it too late.
If you still don't want to do without interval runs and fast runs (or can, because experience shows that the form for summer is worked out in winter), you're well advised to "run on more boring, well-known tracks that are tarmaced and illuminated," says running coach and Asics Frontrunner Franky.
The favorite tea with honey, the hot bathtub and warm cushions for the toes - while Cindy and Sandra reward themselves with little things right after running, Jules from the Munich Mountain Girls is looking forward to beautiful feet: "Due to the shorter distances, maltreated runners' feet can recover and I treat myself with a pedicure and sauna during the time and therefore like to show my feet."
"I would advise you to run without headphones or only with very quiet music. When you see nothing or little, it is even more important to listen to the environment," says Sandra, a multiple marathon finisher.
Freerunner Franky runs with sports glasses to improve his vision: "It doesn't look so chic, but it protects you from the cold and snow, and the corresponding interchangeable lenses give you sharper contours."
Everyone agrees on one thing: at temperatures below minus 10 degrees Celsius, even the love for running no longer helps: "It's just too much for the lungs, in which case I'd go for a walk instead," says Franky. A good alternative is to use the time for balance training like Willy: "I deliberately focus on stability and strength training, which is often neglected in the summer anyway, because I simply like running too much."
And exactly this joy of running should not be spoiled by adverse conditions. A common advice by professionals is therefore: "It is important that running does not determine life and become compulsive. It should be fun and give more energy than robbing - then the weather is actually secondary."

What I Hate About Selling A House
The VA Steering on Natural Disasters provides data for veteran debtors and what to do if your private home was affected by a natural disaster. I haven't got any info on the CEBs, but when they're something like adobe or bricks, I wouldn't advise using them in TN. Are they only compressed or are they fired after compression? Even bricks take up water. Concrete absorbs less moisture than bricks, I feel, but we still must run dehumidifiers, and in Arkansas many concrete basements require sump pumps. That is why you don't see adobe properties east of New Mexico. They soften.
The main purpose for me desirous to go underground is to reduce temperature extremes but as your hub has identified it is not quite as easy as principle would lead you to believe. I feel if underground homes were perfected by way of construction strategies they might be nearly impossible to beat. On a constructive note not less than you do not have to worry about tornadoes sneaking up on you or a stray bullet going via your partitions. Thanks once more for the data.
So, which means Chelsea's Storage will not be our operating website. I will leave this final post up for a while to assist keep away from any confusion, however any further we'll be posting and sharing on StyleMutt! Sorry for the late reply. I'd clear the step with vinegar to take away the urine odor. I have no experience with cat flaps. Give him time to regulate to the new one or take away it entirely.
Our downside is everyone round here cost 14 legs and 22 arms for any earth work. The Website is deemed to be in use when it's loaded in temporary or permanent reminiscence of your laptop. We divided the closet with an affordable bookshelf and paired it with two units of closet rods on either side. It has been functioning large for the boys (and us!). We additionally added a further rail of hooks behind their door to add further hanging storage.
My advice – RUN, and don't throw good cash after dangerous. Buy your self an outdated , light fixer constructed before the war that grandma nonetheless lives in, and only needs cleaning , portray, and a few sprucing up as a way to not shred your health and endurance like some form of red neck cheese grater. You'll LOVE the outdated hardwood floors, plaster partitions, RAISED basis and clay tile roofs they put on 80 years in the past and nonetheless going and, oh yea, stay away from gimmicks, they might sound as nifty as that set of froth injected ski boots I purchased again within the 70s and the lasting fashion energy of these pastel speedos Dad threw away years ago. Good luck , and tell us how you are doing once you come up for air!!!!

A few days back Actress and Entrepreneur Caroline Danjuma called Out Musician Davido over the death of One Mr Tagbo Umeike and she was so passionate about it that SDK Blog decided to interview her and find out what happened..
Firstly I would like to address this whole razzmatazz about David killing Tagbo and that i said so,i never said but yes,i did call out Davido to know the whereabouts of Tagbo but i never said he killed him,i never used that word''Killed Tagbo''.
No one is accusing anyone of being a murderer but we need to know what happened and why everyone is quiet...
My anger is that he was abandoned by those supposed to be his friends and brothers.

Mary Jo (MJ) learned early in her career that if she found something she valued, she would have to work at it; truly meaningful success was never going to be an easy process.
That held true when she started out as a respiratory therapist at a small, community hospital in Indiana, as well as later when she transitioned to the management side of patient care. Before joining the Raby Institute, MJ worked as an award-winning supervisor at the Northwestern Medical Faculty Foundation for 12 years.
Now, she greets patients at the front desk, answers their questions, and helps guide them through the care process. And she continues to use many of the skills that made her a great caregiver-listening, being supportive, and making people laugh. As often as MJ touches patients' lives, they touch hers.
In this new phase of her life, MJ continues to learn, too. She sees daily the impact that the Raby Institute has on patients' quality of life. And their transformations through treatment have motivated her to embrace integrative medicine and incorporate it into her own life-spiritually, emotionally, and physically.
