Here's some fun stuff that is occupying the top tabs of my computer and also making me think a little
*I recently read this story of a military mom with husband out on deployment. Hats off to all of those wives!
*Wanting to do yogurt popsicles soon.
*Made English Muffins this week. Very quick, easy and a good fill in for last minute egg sandwiches for dinner.
*These upside down prayers for your children have got me really thinking.
*Parenting books make me want to sprint in the other direction at just the sight of the title, but these reviews on this parenting book has intrigued me. I doubt I'll pick up the book, but I appreciate new perspectives.
*Going to try Mayonnaise. I don't really like it (except in things), but I'm willing to try and make my own. Anybody with me???
*I'll take one of these please! Sewing really would come in handy around here.

I like the upside-down prayers. It's definitely not the way I'd normally pray for my kids, but I like it.
Also, I have made mayonnaise before (my recipe is different, though), and we LOVE it. I'm not a big mayo fan, either, but the homemade stuff is WAY better than the stuff in a jar. Good luck!

I have that parenting book Kate. Its actually a really quick read and really the main point is "say what you do, do what you say" and there are consequences to actions. Good lesson for me as I can be a pushover.

Flap your wings,
little birds,
I'm not your spring,
it's not absurd.
And I'll stay here
as you just fly
and disappear,
absurd birds flying high.
Spread your dust,
Peter Pan,
because you just,
'cause you just can.
Flap your wings,
but I won't cry,
I'll clap my hands,
instead of waving goodbye.
I'll clap my hands,
I understand
that you just can,
that you just can.
Flap your wings
coz you are free,
I'll find my spring,
you better believe me.

An improved closed-loop, two-stage pulse-tube refrigerator provides 4 W of cooling power at a temperature of 15 K. The original intended application of this refrigerator is in preventing boiloff of liquid hydrogen from a propellant tank aboard a spacecraft. The basic refrigerator design can also be adapted to terrestrial applications like cooling superconducting electronic devices.
The design operating frequency of this pulse-tube refrigerator is 30 Hz — an order of magnitude greater than the operating frequencies of other pulse-tube refrigerators. The higher frequency makes it possible to design a compressor that is much smaller and lighter, relative to the compressors of lower-frequency pulse-tube refrigerators of similar capacity.

My Journey to RKC II- Part 3
2 full days of 8 hours of physical and mental training is now complete! I continue to be amazed at the level of training one receives at an RKC Certification. Hands down Pavel is the absolute best in his field.
Today we tackled more on the pull up. Pavel taught a particular drill that made it all click for me today!! This a huge breakthrough for my future pull up training. I was able to perform a single pull up without leaking power at the bottom. Meaning I was able to start from a hollow position!!! YEA!
Other drills taught today were the Viking Push Press, Clean & Jerk, Windmill and the Bent Press. If you asked my favorite, it would be the windmill. This was an exercise which I felt very comfortable but honing my skill on the minute details was truly beneficial for me. My booty is super sore from the Windmill, who knew! My second favorite would be the Clean & Jerk. Although this is not an exercise to be taught to your typical clients, it's value is truly beneficial to build athleticism and build mass. Here are two great quotes in the presentation given by Dan John (1) you cannot think through a ballistic movement (2) repetition is the mother of implementation.
Lastly of the instruction today, I learned more about the many benefits and drills to improve thoracic mobility. Bottom line…I don't practice this enough!!!! Thank You David Whitley!
The workouts today were the more challenging than yesterday. We did a VO2 Viking Push Press workout – 10 minutes of 15:15. Our next workout of the day was to earn our lunch. Long cycle Clean & Jerk… need I say more!
I will end this blog on a quote from Pavel.
"Before building strength and endurance you must first have strength to endure".
Now time for sleep and to rest up for our final day and level II testing!
be strong & be well
Dragon Door TV — Who is Dan John?
Do you "know" Dan John? Also, a great Episode featuring Jeff and Leslie Branham, RKC Instrucotrs at Equipt Fitness Studio in St. Paul MN.
A story a about Jenni Baker, RKC – and her Deubut on Dragon Door TV!
Congratulations to Nashville's newest RKC's: Jenni Baker and Drew Massey
Now official members of the RKC system AND the Iron Tamer Clan, I am so proud of you both! Having personally worked with Jenni on her training and preparation for RKC, I am so proud and excited to now share this experience with her. I have to admit that working with Jenni was not a tough task, she had an unwavering determination and definitely the skill to succeed. A quick story about just how much determination…you see Jenni did not take her training lightly, she was dedicated to continually improving right up to the week before she left. The day before she was going to leave, the students and fabulous trainers (thats us:))
at Tennessee Kettlebell made her a RKC "survival kit". It had all the right stuff from athletic tape, to sunscreen, towels, even a little chocolate and a massage when she returned. We wanted this to be a suprise and so I sneakingly found out her work schedule and called her the morning that I was going to drop all the goodies off at the gym where she works. To my dismay and utter suprise, via text message, she told me she was on her way to the doctor as she had been up with a FEVER and COLD CHILLS all night. About an hour later she had confirmation that she had STREP! Now, Jenni was definitely ready for the Russian Kettlebell Challenge, she could hit her snatch numbers (NO PROBLEM) and her form was very solid, but did you ever wonder why you should train, train hard and train smart for your RKC Certification? Well, here you go, need I say more…you never know what the final hours hold before you depart for your RKC journey. Jenni left the following morning for a 12 hour drive from Nashville to Orlando for her RKC. She was not going to let this beat her, and that is just the way she is, she fought back and dug deep down to survive. She did everything necessary with proper nutrition, hydration and medication. Well……the rest of the story and RKC experience I will leave to Jenni Baker to tell! I must say I am so proud to call her a fellow RKC. I truly hope this will not be the experience for everyone with last minute trials and obstacles, but I will leave you with these final words. PREPARE and PREPARE TO SUCCEED!
PS – Jenni passed her sntach test – 100 reps in 5 minutes with a 16kg – on day 1 — with strep! Now that's one Hardstyle Chick!
Check out Jenni Baker and Drew Massey, our representation from Nashville Kettlebell and Tennessee Kettlebell in this Dragon Door TV Episode

Es Trenc
For many, the best beach in the island, this 3 kilometres long beach with golden fine sand washed by a sea of Caribbean transparency is located in the municipality of Campos, in the south of Mallorca. Child friendly - gentle slope and fairly shallow water. The beach is a perfect place for water sports lovers: wind surfing, kite surfing and sailing. There are some parts of the beach where nudism is practiced. Access for pedestrians, vehicles and boats but bare in mind that due to the limited space of the parking it is often full. Sun beds and parasols available for renting. There are a few snack bars spread around the beach. The neighbouring resorts of Sa Rapita and Colonia de Sant Jordi are just a stone's throw away so if you plan to base close to the beach of Sa Rapita, there's a wealth of holiday apartments and houses available in the area.

Today I sought legal representation for the 4-count traffic ticket I received last Monday and the pending warrant for my arrest in conjunction with my failure to appear to a court meeting of which I was never aware because of an expired vehical registration sticker on my Ford Explorer. The same car that I drove 40,000 miles in, the same car that was once driven by Crefn; where she learned to drive on the interstate. Needless to say, it got totalled in an accident 56 days later.
The lawyer's advice struck me: Don't bother about the inspection. I said, "Excuse me? There would be a warrant for my arrest!" He told me that the law was >quote<bullsh*t>/quote< and that the state wouldn't bother spending money to fulfill a warrant for a $77 ticket. He said instead that I merely go to the court house the day of, bring $50 for bail, declare no contest, turn myself in, give the bond money directly to the court clerk and — voilà— unless the state hated me, they would declare the paperwork "misfiled" and I would be released. he assured me it is how the system works...like how they're going to get my other charges completely dropped the day before court by effectively bribing them by giving them the $25 fee for processing and giving them more free time on the docket.
The idea behind vehicular registration and jail time isn't about trapping intelligent, generally middle-class and above people who are smart enough to hire a lawyer for $50 / offense versus paying $300 for each and a record. No, such laws are always meant to increase the hold on the lower castes of society. Think about it. You're a single mother of 2, you work two minimum wage shifts each day. You don't have enough money for a bogus vehicle registration and you can FORGET about having two hours off to go get it. So we lock you up and you're fucked. You've lost your job and thanks to Bush's welfare reform we won't help you out cuz we already did when your last dead-beat boyfriend empregnated you with little Sarah there and then left. The bastard.
Nah, we'd rather spend the money we could give you on things like putting people like you in jail for vehicle registrations, for killing innocent babies via uranium in Iraq, like money for "artists" just because they happen to say they are attracted to other guys, o, and let's not forget money spent on making sure your medicine costs stay at their absurdely expensive highs!
Power to the people? Ya! The people who desire to shove the Corporate Boot down your throat.

Hauntingly beautiful work by Boston based artist Chelsea Revelle. These images are from three different series, but I wanted to give a little taste of each … ok, fine … I couldn't decide! Regardless of the series, most of Chelsea's work "examines themes of the domestic female, home, childhood play, and identity." Some of the pieces above are reactions to specific stories and places, not just found imagery. Pop over to her site and wander around in there for awhile. Enjoy!

The nature and purpose of relative terms in Plato

Duncombe, M. (2012). The nature and purpose of relative terms in Plato (Doctoral thesis). https://doi.org/10.17863/CAM.16537
Relative terms are those such as 'larger', 'smaller', 'parent' and 'offspring'. Questions concerning the nature of this type of term in Plato fall under three themes. First, logic: what is the syntax and semantics of relative terms? Second, metaphysics: what structures in the world constitute relative properties? Third, taxonomy: do relative terms form a distinguishable class? Questions concerning purpose ask what role these terms have in the wider economy of Plato's thought. Only one existing approach addresses all of these themes and questions: it was put forward by G.E.L. Owen in 1957, although it was subsequently developed by others. The Owenian view holds that relatives are syntactically or semantically incomplete, that they are identical to metaphysically dyadic relations and that they do form a taxonomic class. According to Owen, Plato introduces relative terms to bolster a certain argument for the separation of forms and participants. Therefore, they have an ontological purpose. This thesis aims to offer a plausible, non–anachronistic alternative to the Owenian view. To give such an account I have to argue for a radically different logic, metaphysics and purpose for relatives in Plato. I call the view that I defend 'conjunctivism'. I begin by characterising the logic of conjunctivism. Plato holds that relative terms have formal objects. These are exceptionlessly correct objects of the relative in question. A parent is always and only parent of offspring, so 'offspring' is the formal object of 'parent'. I then demonstrate that the metaphysical problems for relatives which are not dyadic relations are avoided by Plato's version of conjunctivism. Looking at Sophist 255c–d and Parmenides 133c–134e, I discuss the taxonomy of relative terms. I show that, under the conjunctive reading, they form a distinguishable class and, in contrast to Owenian relatives, each reciprocates with its correlative. So, just as a parent is relative to offspring, so offspring are relative to a parent. With the nature of relative terms established, I proceed to refute Owen's account of their purpose, and give my own explanation. By looking at passages from the Euthydemus and Charmides, I argue that Plato introduced relative terms to articulate why some arguments are fallacies and others not. That is, relative terms have a dialectical purpose.

GIS FAQs
Instructions are current as of 4/30/2019.
Please notify a SSIL GE if the information is no longer accurate.
Problem: Student map not displaying labels. Red exclamation mark under individual layers.
Solution: The pathway to the data has been altered or disappeared. The student needs to reconnect the data set to the layers by specifying pathway (data location). To do this, click on red exclamation point, and browse to that specific layers data. All remaining layers will automatically correct themselves and map should display all of its colorful glory.
Note: To reduce the risk of this happening in the first place, all new MXDs should be set with relative data source path enabled (File > Map Document Properties… > Enable "Store relative pathnames to data sources".
Problem: Can't see any map layers on the screen.
Solution: Try right-clicking on the layer you want to view and click "Zoom to layer." This should allow you to see the layer wherever it is projected.
Problem: Student prints with ARCH Landscape (ex. A3, A4, A5, A6, B4, B5, etc.). Printer freaks out & goes "Beep, Beep, Beep, What are you tryin' to print?!" Lights start blinkin' all sorts of colors – Lots of lights and sounds (4th of July show for Printer)
Solution: Press the button that says "Form Feed", confirm by pressing OK. Another screen pops up asking what size print you want. Most of the time people want 8.5×11, SELECT. Press OK. Print should come out how the person designed it, just on 8.5×11 or on 11×17.
Problem: Unable to export ArcMap as PDF
Solution: Click "File" then "Export Map…" and change the "Save as type:" to "PDF" from the drop down menu. ArcGIS will save a copy of the map as a PDF file. Make sure the output folder is not opened in Windows Explorer and that the Adobe Acrobat isn't running.
Alternate Solution: Have student print ArcMap file, ensuring that Adobe PDF is selected as the print option. This will save a PDF on the desktop.
The Importance of folder and file names
It is very important NOT to have spaces in the names of your files and folders when using ArcGIS. The software can behave unpredictably and generate errors if it encounters a file or folder with a space in the name. Sometimes the program will work normally if there are spaces, but it's not worth the risk. Do yourself a favor and resist the urge to use spaces when naming files and folders. An underscore ("_") works as a nice replacement. Furthermore, long folder and file names can cause geoprocessing errors, thus it is recommended to keep file names concise.
- For example: instead of naming a shapefile "slope analysis.shp" instead you should do something like "slope_analysis.shp" or "SlopeAnalysis.shp."
- Instead of naming a folder "Lab 5 Data" you should name it "Lab5_Data" or "Lab5Data."
Connecting to a folder
Sometimes you'll want to import data from a folder that is not displayed when you click the "Add Data" button.
To connect to a new folder:
- Click the "Connect to Folder" button from the "Add Data" window or from the "Catalog" window that appears on the right side of the Arc screen.
- Navigate to the folder that you'd like to connect to
- Never select a geodatabase (.mdb or .gdb) as the folder to connect to. Connect to a folder 'above' a geodatabase to access it.
* It is good practice to connect to a higher level folder and navigate to subfolders rather than connecting to individual subfolders.
For example: connect to "H:\" instead of connecting to "H:\Labs\Lab1" and "H:\Labs\Lab2" that way you'll have access to both folders using one connection.
If you receive an error message when opening a particular tool (e.g. Spatial Analyst)
If you are trying to use a particular analyst tool and you receive an error message that says the tool is not licensed do the following:
- Open the "Customize" menu at the top of the screen
- Click on "Extensions…"
- Activate the extensions that you want by clicking the box to the left of the name so that it is checked.
Data Frames
There are many situations where someone will want to design a cartographic product that has multiple maps on one page. This is typically done by using multiple Data Frames. Each Data Frame contains its own data. Even if you want to use the same data source (e.g. shapefile or raster) in multiple Data Frames you need to add a copy of the data to each Data Frame. ArcMap only allows you to add data and edit data within one Data Frame at a time. Users must switch between their Data Frames to work with the data contained within them. This is called "Activating" a Data Frame.
To add a new Data Frame:
- Click on the "Insert" menu at the top of ArcMap
- Select the first option, "Data Frame"
To "Activate" a Data Frame (i.e. switch between Data Frames):
- Right-Click on the name of the Data Frame in your Table of Contents on the left-side of ArcMap.
- Click on "Activate" towards the bottom of the menu.
* The "active" Data Frame will have its name displayed in bold letters in the Table of Contents
Printing Issues
If someone is having issues with the way their map looks when printed versus how it looks on their computer screen (e.g. the edge getting cutoff) it might be a result of Arc's printer engine not playing nicely with our printers. A simple solution that tends to fix a lot of these issues is to export the map document as a .pdf and print it through Adobe Acrobat or another.pdf viewer.
To export the map document as a .pdf:
- Go to the "File" menu and click "Export Map"
- Name the file
- Select "PDF" as the file type
- Find the newly saved .pdf file on the computer and open it in a .pdf viewer such as Adobe Acrobat.
Tool Progress Bar
ArcGIS 10 and above doesn't show geoprocessing progress window as a default. Instead, it is run in the background and users see no indication that the tool is running. Eventually a small progress bar will appear at the bottom of the screen that display the tool name some dots and the percent complete (e.g. "…Dissolve…2% 2% 2%…Dissolve…4% 4% 4%…") If you prefer to have a better estimation of the tool's progress you can revert back to the old system. Additionally, reverting back and disabling background processing will reduce the likelihood of ArcMap crashing during intensive geoprocessing.
To have a progress window display when a tool is executed:
- Go to the "Geoprocessing" menu and click "Geoprocessing Options…"
- Look at the 2nd section entitled, "Background Processing"
- Un-check the box that says, "Enable"
- Press "OK"
Legend Display
Oftentimes you might want to adjust the way that your data is displayed in the legend accompanying your map. For instance, your .shp file of the Willamette River is named willamette_river.shp, but you want it to show up as "Willamette River" in the legend. To accomplish this you'll want to give your data file a label specifically for the legend, which is done like so:
For a single symbol feature (e.g. the Willamette River, parks, streets):
- Right-click on the data file in the table of contents and chose "Properties"
- Click the "Symbology" tab
- Look for the "Legend" properties box, which is the 2nd one displayed.
- Type the desired name in the space provided next to "Label appearing next to the symbol in table of contents"
For categorical features (e.g. data layer showing the density of houses in a neighborhood broken down into categories like 0-40, 40-80, 80-200)
- Right-click on the data file in the table of contents and chose "Properties"
- Click the "Symbology" tab
- You'll a table with Symbol, Value, Label, and Count headers. Click on the value in the "Label" column and type your desired value.
For more advanced cartographic design, you should convert the legend to a graphic.
- Right click on the generated legend
- Select "Convert To Graphics"
- Ungroup segments of the new legend graphic as needed to make alterations.
Clipping Rasters
Clipping a raster is not as straightforward as a clipping .shp file, but it is not too cumbersome. Perhaps you find yourself in a situation where you have aerial imagery of an entire county and it is a very large file. Due to the large file size of this raster file ArcMap is running very slowly. It just so happens that for your project you only need the part of the aerial photo that overlaps the city boundary of Eugene. Therefore, you could clip the raster using the city boundary and use the new raster file, which in theory will not slow down the computer as much. To clip a raster do the following:
- With the Spatial Analyst extension activated, open the "Raster Calculator" tool
- Click the "Environments…" button at the bottom of the window that pops up
- Click on "Raster Analysis" which is towards the bottom of the new window that pops up
- Select the dataset that you want to use to clip the raster from the "Mask" drop-down menu (in the scenario mentioned above you'd select the Eugene city boundary)
- Press "OK"
- In the "Layers and variables" window on the left double-click the raster that you'd like to clip (in the scenario mentioned above you'd select the aerial image)
- Upon double-clicking the raster you'll see the name of it appear in the window below, which is the expression window
- Due to Arc being finicky, you cannot create a new clipped raster by just setting it equal to another raster, which is what we'd be doing if we left the expression as is. Instead, some sort of calculation needs to be done. The easiest thing to do is multiply the original raster by "1". Doing so will just multiply each cell of the original raster by 1, which doesn't change original value but does count as a calculation.(So, if the original raster is named "lane.tif" then the calculation in the expression window should look like this, "1501B.tif" * 1)
- Name your new clipped raster in the "Output raster" box at the bottom and then press "OK"
- If all went well you should have a clipped raster
Problem: I opened my ArcMap document (.mxd file) and all the toolbars/menus are missing.
If the Menu Bar (File, Edit, View…Customize, Help) still appears… click Customize -> Toolbars and choose any toolbar you need. "Standard", "Tools", are "Layout" are commonly displayed.
If no Menu Bar appears, but one or more toolbars does appear…Right-click on an existing toolbar to access the long list of other available toolbars, and select ones you need.
If the Menu Bar AND all toolbars are missing…
- Close all open ArcMap documents.
- Open My Computer (Start Menu -> Computer).
- Double-click: Local Disk (C:)
- Type "normal.mxt" in the search box at the upper-right. Wait until the search is finished (1-2 minutes) and a file called Normal appears with an ArcMap icon. Right-click the file and Delete.
- Re-open your ArcMap document and it should appear as normal, with default menus and toolbars.

Photos From Summer Finale Distance Open
Faith Duncan took on a challenging double Thursday evening at Indiana Wesleyan University.
At the Summer Finale Open she first lined up in the 800, where she clocked 2:22.64 and then, after a brief rest period, she was right back on the track for 1600m competition against a talent-rich field which included six other distance specialists. Duncan went 5:12.61 for fourth in the standings, all while in the midst of a heavy mileage building phase she's putting together to prepare for the upcoming cross country season.
Look for big things from the Lebanon rising senior during XC this fall. She checks in at No. 4 on the state's top returners listing.

Greetings Great Runners,
Welcome to one of the most unusual updates you have ever seen, but nothing we have not done before. You may need to take a seat for this one because it is... heavy.
Over the years The Great Run has established itself as the bastion of blending exploration and charity while providing a test of mettle for the participants; a test involving technical driving or endurance, or in some cases both.
It therefore followed that some felt a little unchallenged by the latest route set for The Great Run XVI, citing distance and difficulty (or the lack thereof) and being a little un-Great Run-like. Well, who are we if not risers to the occasion? The Great Run has directors and organizers who listen, and we listened which is why one of the organizing entities, the Motoring Press Agency, sent a team out to remedy the situation; and what this team found is... nothing short of epic. Y'all wanted a challenge? Y'all got one now!
It is a bit hard to contain the excitement behind this but let us try. Was the immediate former dry season getting you down? Do you want to see some trees? Are you tired of always driving fast or aggressively out of necessity owing to the fast-paced vagaries of city life; or have you always been put off by the thought of The Great Run being a race (which it most definitely is NOT)? Do you want to see some fresh sights? Do you have a passpo... wait, we are getting ahead of ourselves here. Listen:
Is it just me or does it feel like forever between one Great Run and the next? 2018 has been a tough year and we sure could use a break... and a smile! Show. Your. Teeth. Like. Sha. Shabaaa Rrranks!
You know what else June 1st is? In 2018, this will be the date of commencement for the Great Run XIII, which we have named "The Long Weekend", and you will shortly find out why. Crack open your piggy banks and break out the holiday hats, we hereby present to you a plan for the three-day vacation. You will want to hear this.
We are drawing to a close of what has been one of the most interesting years in the country's history; and not necessarily interesting in a good way. We are pretty sure the events that unfolded since on the political scene since August 8th have left a bad taste in everybody's mouth, irrespective of affiliation. Can we just get over this nonsense and continue with our lives please...
First off, may we just express our unreserved gratitude for your contribution over the years. We really are thankful and - because of you, just for you and only with you - we will forge forward into the future doing what we've always done: making the world a better place and having fun while at it. So let's forge forward, shall we?
X marks the spot. The universal buried treasure symbol used on ancient maps bears good tidings for us as well. X marks the treasure spot; just the same way that X marks the tenth installation in the now established Great Run series. We really are growing. The Great Run X is here.
Cease all thy toils; Rest thine hands upon the tools of thy trade and take a brief pause from thy travails all ye wonderful beings; For we hath a clamor to make upon thine ears; And we beseech thee to hearken to the clarion call that we make; For we make it in earnest: THE GREAT RUN IS BACK!
Camaraderie. Philanthropy. Visual drama. Most of all, FUN. This is not a ceremony where a clique of kids is given a cash handout to spend as they will; this is The Great Run.
"Let the Almighty Lord lead us there ..Ameen"
"This what I was talking about. Am not seeing us missing this, ama vipi?"
"Weee perfect Rd trip ,day 1 and 3 are not easy but anyway ndanii kabisa"
"It's a must attend"

Holly Willoughby loves Friend-trips
OHMYGOSSIP — Holly Willloughby loves going on "friend-trips".
The 36-year-old presenter – who is married to television producer Dan Baldwin, with whom she has three children, son Harry, seven, daughter Belle, five, and two-year-old son Chester – treasures time away with her female pals and will never forget the time she went away without her kids for the first time, and had such a good time hanging out with her mates, they didn't even go out.
She said: "Whilst I love getting away with my family, some of my favourite holidays are 'friend-trips'. I have so many memories of really happy, carefree and hilarious times. I had a brilliant girls weekend in Ibiza a couple of years ago.
"It was the first time I had been and it was great fun. It was my first weekend away without the children with the girls and we actually didn't go out once. Instead we stayed in and had our own mini disco!"
The 'This Morning' star is fronting a new campaign for Diet Coke, 'Get The Gang Back Together.'
And research from Diet Coke has revealed almost a third of people would rather go on holiday with their friends than their family, while 44% admitted they have more fun if they go away with their pals than their partners or relatives, while 42% are more "energised" when they go away with their buddies.
The study also showed 81 % want to spend more time with their friends, with just over a quarter only seeing their close friends less than twice a year.
But it seems that might be about to change, as 46% of respondents have a holiday planned with their best friends this year, compared with just 22% of people who managed it over the last 12 months.
To celebrate the joy of spending quality time with our BFFs, Diet Coke is helping friends across the UK 'Get The Gang Back Together.' Five lucky groups of friends will enjoy a night away in a luxury penthouse hotel in one of five top cities – Rome, Paris, Barcelona, London and Dublin.
Aedamar Howlett, Marketing Director for Coca-Cola Great Britain, said; "This year Diet Coke is all about celebrating those special moments we share with our frie nds. Spending quality time together is what makes us feel happier because of the fun and laughter that goes with it. We're excited to be enabling Diet Coke drinkers to get their friends together – here's to the year of the 'friend-trip!"

How KFC Became China's Fast Food of Choice
With its original restaurant located just a stone's throw from Tiananmen Square in Beijing, KFC became the first American fast-food to set foot in China, all the way back in 1987. The three-story branch, with room for up to 500 diners, was KFC's largest at the time, and the grandiosity of this move set the tone for the success the chain would find in China over the next few decades.
As the first window into American-style dining for many, KFC was an immediate hit, with lines stretching for blocks even months after the branch opened its doors. A year later, the […] Read more

The encroachment by extractive industries into the territories of indigenous peoples in voluntary isolation (PIACI) in Peru, has brought the KNNRT case to the attention of the Inter-Commission on Human Rights which will include the topic for the first time in its Amazon-wide report.
The Commission last week heard representations from the NGO Derecho Ambiente y Recursos Naturales (DAR) against a contentious article (5c) of the Peruvian PIACI Law which allows externally generated economic activities within indigenous territories on grounds of public and national interest despite evidence of contravention of the rights to life and health discussed above in relation to mercury poisoning in the KNNRT reserve.
DAR also pointed out that an earlier decree by which the territorial reserve was originally set up committed the state to guarantee and protect the reserve's integrity and intangibility as long as the inhabitants chose to live in isolation.
The Ministries of Culture, Environment and Health represented Peru at the hearing alongside experts in international law. On behalf of the Peruvian Amazon's indigenous peoples, the Asociación Interétnica de la Selva Peruana (AIDESEP) appealed to the state to respect the integrity and self-determination of the peoples in the KNNRT reserve. It also urged the state to take account of the infringement of the rights of peoples in voluntary isolation brought about by article 5c of the PIACI Law.
In April AIDESEP convened a panel of academics and indigenous leaders in Lima to launch its PIACI Report for 2018 and debate challenges in the inter-American system of human rights for the protection of peoples in isolation and initial contact, focusing on the Mashco Piro, Yora and Amahuaca.

Sanctions Lists & PEP Screening
sanctions.io is the simple, cost effective and easy to integrate solution for
your AML & KYC, and Business Partner screening processes.
AML & KYC Compliance
AML & KYC Compliance explained
What does AML & KYC mean, what are the most relevant policies and regulations, how does it affect my business and what is the risk for non-compliance?
AML & KYC - What does it mean and what is the difference?
AML (Anti-Money Laundering) is an umbrella term for a range of regulatory processes businesses must have in place in order to prevent money laundering and making sure payments come from legitimate sources.
KYC (Know Your Customer) is a part of AML requiring companies to verify their customers' identity and make sure the customer is generally not a 'bad guy' and doesn't pose any risk to the organization.
Overview of AML & KYC policies and regulations
The most important regulatory organizations on a global level are the United Nations and the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) which is the global money laundering and terrorist financing 'watchdog'. Their policies and recommendations are adopted by a wide range of countries (more than 200) as a standard and framework for their national regulations.
Besides those global organizations there are also regulators and laws on national levels which, depending on your market, could be relevant for your business. Some of the most relevant organizations in terms of international trade are for example the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) in the US or the European Commission in the EU. For more information on global and national regulations see our blog.
Why is this relevant for my business?
Global AML & KYC regulations are a complicated field to navigate especially for small and midsize businesses (SMB). Not only the complexity of the regulations itself make it difficult but often there are regulations from multiple countries or organizations to obey.
While the financial industry and other 'high risk industries' such as real estate have been required for a long time to have KYC processes in place, many other industries only now face stricter regulations due to global widespread of KYC and AML compliance requirements.
In general all businesses are required to adopt compliance programs and for example check their customers against Sanctions and PEP (Politically Exposed Persons) lists to understand the risk in doing business with their clients.
Consequence of non-compliance
The risk for non-compliance with AML, KYC and Sanctions regulations includes high fines and penalties (see here our blog post about the cost of neglecting AML compliance), getting your business or yourself on a sanctions or watch list and/or could even involve prison sentences for executives and officers.

All of these stressors become imprinted in our hearts and brain and can last for days, weeks, months, or longer, mental health experts say. In addition, they note that after the initial emergency passes, the long process of rebuilding and healing begins.
And for many people, the post traumatic stress following a natural disaster can be deadly.
"When our brains perceive that we don't have enough resources to cope with our current demands, it triggers a cascade of reactions and rampant hormones in the body designed to help us short term to run away or fight off danger. However, if we don't mobilize these reactions in some way to turn into a positive direction, they [end] up flooding our system for too long and become toxic," says Dr. Heidi Hanna, Ph.D., executive director of the American Institute of Stress and author of a new book, "The 7 Habits of Stress Mastery."
She tells Newsmax Health the impacts of post-traumatic stress go well beyond psychological issues.
"If our system is already compromised from being too stressed out, the excess of negative stress hormones may trigger cardiovascular events," she explains. "So it is crucial to deal with the symptoms of stress by turning negative emotions into positive action."
Noted cardiologist Dr. Stephen Sinatra calls stress "the grim reaper that abruptly ends life by rupturing unstable plaque in a vital vessel or by triggering its lethal disturbance in heart rhythm."
Dr. Terry Lyles, Ph.D., is an internationally recognized expert on dealing with stress and trauma. He has trained hundreds of individuals, including the rescue workers responding to disasters, sharing his time-tested formula for recovery.
"The first step in recovering from any of life's storms is to make sure that you provide for your own basic needs such as water, shelter, clothing and rest," he tells Newsmax Health. "You must help yourself before you help others. So instead of letting your body go during a storm, be committed to staying well hydrated, eating properly, moving, exercising regularly, and getting sufficient rest and sleep."
Lyles and other health experts have identified several key ways to recover after a storm:
Mental Health
Physical Health
"Stress is good for us," says Lyles. "Our bodies are hard wired to handle stress and our physiology is designed to process and convert stress into energy that can enable us to perform at peak efficiency.
"Properly utilized, stress can propel us to success in every area of life. Stress is meant to define us, not defeat us; to illumuinate us, not eliminate us."
Public Health Risks
Lyle notes that another important factor affecting recovery after a tragedy is the threat of diseases that stem from unhealthy water, overcrowded shelters, and mosquito infestations. To stay safe, Lyle recommends:

Hi, welcome to DC Database! Thanks for your edit to the Category:Smallville (TV Series) Episodes/Images page.
Please leave me a message if I can help with anything!Loading editor
Thank you for the welcome!Loading editor
Loading editor
Hey there,
please don't change the universe of the Smallville characters from Smallville to Smallville (TV Series). We had a discussion about that a week or two ago.
Thanks. :)Loading editor
Thank you for the hint. I got confused because on the image description pages, it always seems to be with "TV series".Loading editor
hehe no problem. :DLoading editor
That's for reasons of categorization.
The Universe field on character pages adds characters to "Universe Characters" where "Universe" is whatever is in that field.
So, "Smallville Characters" is an appropriate name for that category.
However, on images, the universe needs to include the "(TV Series)", or it will Categorize as "Smallville/Images" - and that could be any Smallville.
It's a minor distinction. I would be just as happy to use (TV Series) on character pages, but ... apparently a conversation was had without me, so ... do not care.Loading editor
Thinking about it, it appears to make sense. Smallville images are either from the TV series or from the comics, whereas the characters are common to both.Loading editor

The intent for the "Links" parameter is to allow linking from an Actors: page to the actors page on a wiki for franchise outside of the shows, films, games, etc based on DC properties. The general rule of thumb is that the actor made a significant contribution to, and is better known for their role, in that franchise. Examples of this are Mark Hamill and Star Wars or Michael Dorn and Star Trek.
Linking an actor like Alan Ritchson to the Smallville wiki is redundant since Smallville is with the scope of this wiki. And taking a sample of the actor articles over there, it does not seem to be anything additional, related to Smallville that is added.Loading editor
Thanks for the hint, that makes sense.Loading editor

1985 Ford F250 Engine Oil Pressure Drops When Engine Is Hot
Reader Question I have a 1985 Ford F250 4×4. everything seems to be fine except the oil pressure. the pressure is fine when i first start it up and for awhile after. when the engine starts to warm up thats when the pressure gauge goes down. i checked the oil when the engine was running and when it wasn't(hot and cold) and the oil level seems to be fine.
It only starts to happen when the engine temp. gets about a 1/4 way on the gauge. then the oil gauge starts to go down and then it will go back. so basically it goes up and down. is that normal? I'm not really use to the truck since i just got it, it was my step dad's and i got it when he past away so I can't ask him. I know he kept it running good and everything. please help me out.
Hey there,
As the engine heats up, so does the engine oil and when the oil is hot it will actually get thinner…and is probably what you notice on the gauge. What you should be concerned with is what is actually happening at the oil pump itself, and using a manual pressure gauge you can check the oil pump pressure to make sure the pump is doing its job.
If you don't hear any "clacking" engine noise (due to low oil pressure from a weak oil pump) and you just want to take a GUESS at something…I would buy and replace the engine oil pressure sending unit. Get one from your local auto parts store and just unscrew the old one and install the new one.
In most cases, erratic oil pressure gauge problems are the cause of a bad sending unit. It's a cheap guess, and easy to replace. If you still have the problem…then it would be time to manually check the oil pump pressure and test the dash gauge itself.
Using thicker weight oil, like straight Castrol 50 weight will also help boost oil pressure on an engine with some internal wear and tear.

If things went well for the organization, this last month would've ended with the Clippers playing on the court in June. Instead, things have gotten so bad that the team's co-owners are headed to court to fight for control of the organization.
Lawyers for Shelly Sterling will ask a judge for an emergency order for an expedited decision as they try to establish whether she followed protocol in executing provisions in the Sterling Family Trust related to the sale of the franchise.
Monday, Donald Sterling and his attorneys revoked that trust, essentially dissolving any agreements within it and moving all property to individual ownership stakes, according to one of Sterling's attorneys.
The move forced the action into probate court.
Shelly Sterling and her lawyers are expected to try and reaffirm the trust in the eyes of the court Wednesday, paving the way for the sale of the team to former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer for $2 billion.
If Donald Sterling prevails, he and his attorneys affirmed he will not agree to a sale of the team.
"This is not a fight about money," said Sterling's attorney, Bobby Samini. "It's about principle."
In a letter obtained by the Register, Donald Sterling speaks strongly about why he's fighting the sale of the Clippers.
Sterling argues the NBA is trying to take away his rights to freedom of speech and freedom of privacy.
"As a lawyer and citizen, I am shocked (but not surprised) that the NBA wants to take away those fundamental rights," Sterling wrote. "I feel that every American has to protect those rights and that the NBA should not be allowed to take away those rights. I have apologized for my mistakes. My apology is sincere.
"I want every American to know that I will not give up fighting for those rights."
Sterling makes it clear that he will not go quietly.
According to Samini, Sterling will go on a "crusade" to expose the NBA's hypocrisy.
"The NBA has a history of discriminatory practices which is supported by the numerous lawsuits filed by NBA employees claiming gender-based discrimination," Sterling wrote. "(Commissioner) Adam Silver has worked for the NBA since 1992. He must know about the discriminatory practices of the NBA which are all matters of public record. The reason Adam Silver is focused on the sale, instead of the larger social issue, is because doing so would require him to examine the NBA's own discriminatory practices including those that occurred under his many years in leadership.
"…The NBA is a band of hypocrites and bullies. They will not stop until someone stands up. They have taken the liberty to desecrate my privacy rights and my right to own property."
Silver, in Miami for Game 3 of the NBA Finals, responded during a prescheduled televised interview at halftime.
"I have no idea what he's talking about," Silver said. "The focus obviously shouldn't be on me or the NBA. This is about Donald Sterling and his conduct."
As far as Wednesday's situation, Silver said the league is "on the sidelines."
This has now become a fight between Donald and Shelly Sterling.
Before Shelly Sterling agreed to sell the team to Ballmer, Donald Sterling underwent neurological testing. After he was found to be mentally incapacitated, Shelly Sterling became the lone acting trustee.
Shelly Sterling's "Plan B" were detailed in Tuesday's New York Times.
Donald Sterling had agreed to allow the sale – the preferred method for Shelly Sterling and the NBA – but he resolved to fight after the NBA's handling of the situation.
One of Sterling's other attorneys, Maxwell Blecher, said his client's $1 billion lawsuit against Silver and the NBA was "full-steam ahead." Shelly Sterling has agreed to indemnify the league in any lawsuits with her estranged husband.
Even if Sterling wins his battles with Shelly Sterling and the NBA, he could still lose the team.
If Sterling is successful and re-establishes control of the Clippers, the NBA is expected to reinstate a hearing to terminate his ownership. The NBA's other controlling owners can oust Sterling out of the league with a three-fourths majority, according to the league's constitution.

Thenue Housing community centre to be used as Polish polling station
A community centre set up by Thenue Housing is to be used as a polling station for Poland's general election on October 13th.
The Calton Heritage and Learning Centre in Glasgow's East End was set up by the housing association and local people seven years ago.
The announcement that the centre was to be used as a polling station was made by Poland's Consulate General in Edinburgh.
Polish people living in Scotland will be entitled to cast their ballot to elect their new government without the need to return home.
Two Glasgow polling stations have been selected, with the other in Kelvingrove. The other ten are located in various places across Scotland.
The Calton Heritage and Learning Centre, located adjacent to Thenue's London Road offices, is no stranger to elections. It is a regular polling place for United Kingdom polls.
At the Thenue AGM of 2018 held in the centre, Thenue Members were sent to the polls to elect a new board after applications to serve on it exceeded the number of places available.
Glasgow and Scotland have a strong historical bond with Poland stretching back to the Second World War.
There are trading links between Scotland and Poland documented as far as the 1400s – particularly in the Aberdeen and Grampian area.
It is believed that more Polish nationals now live in Scotland than any other group from outside the UK and the two countries share a rich bond of friendship.
Rosie Robertson, centre manager of the Calton Heritage and Learning Centre, said: "This is a first for our Centre and we are delighted to be helping Polish citizens living in Scotland exercise their democratic rights. We are also very grateful to the Consulate General of the Republic of Poland in Edinburgh for choosing us to fulfil this important role."
Charles Turner, chief executive of Thenue Housing, said: "The Calton Heritage and Learning Centre was set up to bring people together and celebrates its seventh birthday on November 1st. Glasgow is home to many Polish Scots and it's great that a Centre set up to benefit the local Calton community has for the first time carved out a truly international role."

Tuesday's elections in Israel, which appear likely to give Benjamin Netanyahu another term as Prime Minister, may have been a signal that it's time for the White House to repair President Obama's chilly relationship with the hard-right Israeli premier. But if so, someone in the administration didn't get the message. Rather than congratulating Netanyahu on his victory, White House spokesman Josh Earnest told reporters on Wednesday that the president was deeply concerned about the "divisive rhetoric" the Israeli premier used to help assure his reelection.
According to multiple reports, Earnest made the comments while speaking to reporters on Air Force One Wednesday, during President Obama's trip to Ohio, where he was to deliver a speech.
Related: How Iran Is Taking Over the Middle East
Earnest said that the president had not yet called to congratulate Netanyahu, but would do so in the near future. He said that the White House would also complain directly to the Israeli government about remarks Netanyahu made during the final days of the election.
Netanyahu's conservative Likud Party was facing what appeared to be a strong challenge from the left-leaning Zionist Union party. In the days prior to the vote Netanyahu suggested that Arab voters were somehow subverting the will of the Israeli people, in what appeared to be a last ditch effort to rally the hard right to his cause.
Writing on Facebook, Netanyahu warned that "the right wing government is in danger" because "Arab voters are coming out in droves to the polls. Left-wing organizations are busing them out."
Netanyahu, who had previously claimed that foreign nations were bankrolling an international conspiracy to defeat him, also said, "This foreign money is distorting the true will of the Israeli citizens toward the left and giving excessive power to the extreme Arab list. The rule of the right is in danger."
Related: As Israel Votes, Netanyahu Issues Dire Warnings
Netanyahu's critics were quick to point out that the Arabs in question are Israeli citizens who have every right to vote, regardless of how they get to the polls. More than a few critics suggested that Netanyahu's comments smacked of racism.
Earlier in the week leading up to the election, Netanyahu further frustrated the White House by declaring that while he serves as Prime Minister there will never be a two-state solution to the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians living on the West Bank of the Jordan river and the Gaza Strip.
The United States, along with most of Europe has long supported negotiations toward a solution that allows Palestinians the right to self-determination. U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry spent a large part of 2013 and 2014 trying to broker such talks.
With Netanyahu expected to head the new Israeli government, the prospect of any settlement appears dead, which will, among other things, complicate the United States' role as Israel's protector in the United Nations.

Plug Into Your Performance
Athletic and daily physical performance is about being plugged in: plugged into your mind, your body, and your spirit.
What if you could also plug into our planet, and enhance your performance by harnessing the Earth's energy?
This may sound like science fiction, but it's not.
Humans run on electric currents, a complex series of signals from the brain that carry messages to every part of our body. Our bodies respond to those messages by performing functions that keep us alive and alert: our lungs breathe, our heart pumps blood, and our limbs move.
The earth also has a natural electric field, and recent studies have shown that connecting with it via earthing or grounding (ie., going barefoot) results in many health benefits. Our bodies begin to operate at a higher level and we perform with greater energy, heal faster, even sleep better.
Visit our website to see the erthe product page:
In our busy modern world, there are few opportunities for barefoot living and exercising. We spend most of our time indoors, and wear shoes with rubber soles and other man-made materials that cut us off from our physical connection to the earth's frequencies.
Enter the Erthe Shoe Strap by Earthling 3.0.
Erthe Grounding Straps are a new patented, wearable technology that makes grounding possible without going barefoot.
The conductive carbon straps are designed to bypass your shoe and directly connect you with the Earth. Each strap adheres to the outside of your running shoe or athletic boot with one tab under the sole of your foot, and one under the sole of your shoe.
The strap acts as a conduit of the Earth's electro-magnetic currents, eliminating electric tension and enhancing your high-energy physical activity.
Because grounding stimulates the vagus nerve, it also helps to regulate your heart rate and improve the overall function of your heart, lungs and digestive track. Recent scientific studies have also demonstrated that grounding relieves inflammation and facilitates muscle recovery following injury (Department of Biosciences, University of Salzburg, Salzburg, Austria.)
Erthe Grounding Straps are next level performance enhancers, giving you that extra athletic edge. Sold with two straps per package (pair), they are a simple and affordable way to maximize your energy and stimulate your body, naturally.
The Earth is your charging station. Plug in.

British Values
From September 2014, the DfE required all schools to promote the historical and current values that underpin British National Identity. Within this, all schools are required to ensure that the curriculum actively promotes these fundamental British values.
Schools will be expected to focus on, and be able to show, how our work with pupils is effective in embedding fundamental British values.
What are British values defined as:
- Respect for democracy and support for participation in the democratic process
- Respect for the basis on which the law is made and applies in England
- Individual liberty, support and respect for the liberties of all within the law
- Respect for and tolerance of different faiths and religions and other beliefs
What does 'Actively promote …' mean?
- Focus on, and show how, the school's work is effective in securing these values
- Challenging pupils , parents and carers who express opinions contrary to British values
Promoting British values at Holy Family
We agree with the Department for Education's five-part definition of British values:
• democracy
• the rule of law
• individual liberty
• mutual respect
• tolerance of those of different faiths and beliefs
At Holy Family students will encounter these principles throughout everyday school life. The curriculum is mapped in detail across the whole school. Listed below are some examples of how we promote these values in our school community:
Pupil voice is significant in regards to life at Holy Family. Our student leadership team plays a strong role in our school. Some are elected by their class peers and are involved in making the school a better place to learn. Pupils have a great amount of input in regards to what and how they learn, which promotes pupil voice. For example, all subject areas carry out a student voice questionnaire. Teachers then analyse and reflect on the results and this is used in teacher's future planning. We know that the structure of the student leadership programme and the active participation of our students will develop students understanding of democracy in the future.
The Rule of Law
Our pupils will encounter rules and laws throughout their entire lives. We want our pupils to understand that whether these laws govern the class, the school, the neighbourhood or the country, they are set for good reasons and must be adhered to. This understanding of the importance of rules will be consistently reinforced through assemblies and our curriculum. The involvement of our pupils in the creation of the school rules helps them to understand the reasons behind the rules and the consequences if they are broken. Through philosophical enquiry in our philosophy for learning lessons, we allow opportunity to debate and discuss the reasons for laws so that children can recognise the importance of these for their own protection. Throughout the year we welcome visits from members of the wider community including the police, war veterans, the fire brigade and many more. We believe that clear explanations and real life stories emphasise the importance of the rule of law for our pupils.
Individual Liberty
We invest a great deal of time in creating a positive culture in our school, so that children are in a safe environment where choices and freedoms are encouraged.
We encourage children to choose the pathways that will challenge them, giving them more freedom to determine their own learning and we offer a wide range of options at Key Stage 4 and Key Stage 5. We offer a wide range of clubs and school trips which pupils have the freedom to choose from, based on their interests.
We believe that valuing choice and freedom in daily school life will encourage a value for individual liberty when they leave Holy Family.
Mutual respect
Mutual respect is at the heart of our school life. Students learn to treat each other and staff with great respect. This is reinforced through the schools 'PRIDE expectations. Evidence of mutual respect can be recognised in all aspects of school life when walking around the school during lunch/break times and in the classrooms.
Tolerance of those of different faiths and beliefs
At Holy Family we promote the multicultural city that are students live in visiting places around our city to promote tolerance. We offer a diverse curriculum in which all major religions are studied and respected. We promote tolerance in daily collective worship. We believe that giving student's knowledge about other faiths and beliefs helps with their understanding and therefore they are able to demonstrate tolerance
Teaching and Learning
Every school is expected to ensure that its curriculum enables the pupils to explore what it means to be British.
Within this, schools are encouraged to develop the pupils' ability to:
- describe their own identities and the groups that they feel they belong to;
- recognise different identities and experiences;
- appreciate that identity consists of many factors;
- recognise that each person's identity is unique and can change;
- begin to understand the idea of stereotypes.
British Values at Holy Family.
British values are embedded in the following subjects:
British values in Religious Education
Year 8 - explore the dangers of a dictatorship through the holocaust.
Year 11 - study why Christians should vote.
Year 7 - Hinduism.
Year 8 - Judaism.
Year 9 - Islam.
Year 11- Community cohesion.
Rule of Law
Year 7 - Roman rule of Palestine.
Year 8 - The importance of rules and laws through 10 commandments.
Year 11 - Crime and punishment.

Therefore recognising what distinguishes us as British and identifying the similarities and differences between the countries. Using these as discussing points.
#7 billion topic:
Through the study of China's one child policy and the removal of Human rights within the country. Students are to recognise that in an unequal world; not everyone has rights.
Students are taught to be open minded and not insular whilst studying the challenges that come with globalisation. This will allow them to appreciate the alternative viewpoints and investigate the winners and losing of the world becoming smaller.
Geography in the news:
Used to create an awareness of global issues. Using the case studies of Ebola and global famine and investigate ways in which we can help. Students are to understand that geography is around us every day in the news and it is the used by teachers to use current issues to help the students understand the complexities of the modern world in a geographical context.
British Values in Business Studies
Through studying the Enterprise Act and link it to the business planning unit. In this unit the student's study where the government encourage competition but this law makes it illegal to undertake anti-competitive practices. (The UK government believe that the consumers should decide the need for a product or a service)
In the Communism vs. democracy the students study how the government regime affects the supply and demand of products globally. They are used to compare Communism in China vs. the Free Market Economy in the USA.
