Halle Berry's Supremely Ripped Trainer Shares His Tips for a Better Physique
Berry introduced fans to her "favorite trainer," Peter Lee Thomas, via Instagram—and they're about to share their know-how with nearly 2.5 million followers each week.

Halle Berry has always been in incredible shape and sported a gorgeous physique. But lately the star seems to have kicked it up a notch when it comes to her fitness routine. The mom of two looks decades younger than 51, and, even with great genetics, maintaining a physique as fit as Berry's undeniably includes a solid exercise and diet regimen.
Rather than keep fans guessing, Berry took to her Instagram account to introduce them to her "secret weapon"—trainer, martial artist, and actor Peter Lee Thomas. She shared some photos of Thomas as part of his introduction, and (unsurprisingly) he's absolutely shredded.
Welcome to the start of #FitnessFriday. Each Friday I'll be posting something about fitness that I hope will inspire you. So many of you are asking how I have managed to stay in great shape over the years. Well, part of it is genetics, that's true. I was a gymnast growing up and that certainly has helped as I have always been very athletic. I have worked with many trainers over the years and learned a lot from each of them. However, now I'd like to introduce you to my favorite trainer and what I call my secret weapon! Peter Lee Thomas! This man has changed my life. Besides being an all around wonderful human, he's a trainer, martial artist, fellow actor, and nutrition specialist! With his help, I have learned so much about fitness and nutrition and I'm excited to share it with all of you. He's taught me boxing, self defense, and much more. Not only am I in the best shape of my life, but I can actually defend myself and most importantly… my children! As a woman there is nothing more empowering. I'll be launching #hallewood very soon and within that community, Peter will be laying it out! In 2018, he'll help all of us get healthier, stronger and more fit! Swipe for more! #FitnessFridayHB

In the caption, she writes that although she's learned from every trainer she's had over the years, Thomas has changed her life.
"Besides being an all around wonderful human, he's a trainer, martial artist, fellow actor, and nutrition specialist! With his help, I have learned so much about fitness and nutrition and I'm excited to share it with all of you," she writes.

The star announced that she and Thomas will answer fans' fitness questions each week on "Fitness Friday" until her fan website, Hallewood, relaunches. In the duo's first Fitness Friday installment, Berry posted a response to people who'd love to get fitter but don't know how to get started.
It's #FitnessFriday. You asked how to get started? It's simple… you just decide to start! You decide today that you are worth it! Trust me, I know it's hard to focus up and dedicate time to working out each day, but with 24 hours in a day you can surely take ONE and dedicate it to YOU! You don't need a fancy gym to get started – all you need is a living room, a patio, a kitchen floor, a driveway or a backyard, and a water bottle. This simple exercise is called a plank pull. This starts to strengthen your core, and a strong core has been key to my workouts. Each week until the launch of hallewood I'm going to pick a question that you ask and Peter and I will do our best to answer. First, we were asked: if you have weight to lose, is it better to lose weight before you start working out? Peter says it's best do them simultaneously. You can start by walking each day or doing jumping jacks for cardio, while using very light weights, or again holding water bottles in each hand if you don't have weights. And you can also start the plank pulls. Here's to getting started! ?? Swipe to see the plank ➡ #FitnessFridayHB
Getting started is easy, Berry explains in the post: All you have to do is decide to go for it. Thomas advises starting out by walking or doing jumping jacks for cardio, and using light weights or water bottles to start out. Berry even included a video of Thomas demonstrating a move that you can do with nothing more than said water bottles—plank pulls. Check out the video in the second slide of the post above.
Going forward, we can expect nuggets of fitness advice from the pair each week until her site relaunches. (After that, Thomas will presumably act as a contributor on that platform.)
Berry started her Hallewood fan site in 2000 to connect with fans more directly, but shut it down in 2004. Now, she's relaunching the site because she feels it's more important than ever for her to have control over her representation in the media, she explained during a panel at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
"Social media is empowering in many ways, but the part that is concerning for me, especially with my personal brand, is that that power can be misused," she said. Even just taking photos with fans can lead to rumors that she's dating countless men, she explained.

Commission is charged as soon as the agency has transferred to us information about payment tickets. In most cases, this occurs within several hours after ticket issuance. For room reservations, commission is charged a week later, after the client has checked out of the hotel.
We receive booking information from the agency every 15 minutes. This information is saved in the statistics data base. The report in your personal account is updated every five minutes.
Sometimes there is a delay in our receipt of booking information. Some agencies provide information once a day, while some send statistics once a month.
Note: Low-cost airlines, as a rule, do not pay a fee to agents for the selling of tickets. This means we cannot pay profit to partners. You can find more information about low-cost airlines here.

oh thats sad .. lets hope the new project has even an nth as much charm as the old railway had .. happy new year!!!!!!!!
I find it a bit ironic that the Land Conservancy page is not talking much about conservation but instead about a multistory building with many functions, including event facilities from which to enjoy regattas on the river...that should do wonders for the area wildlife.
Nonetheless, the future hurtles toward us...and I wish you and your family a wonderful 2015 !

GILLS ANNOUNCE INITIATIVES WITH ROYAL ENGINEERS
Gillingham FC to work more closely with the Royal Engineers.
Club Statement on Royal Engineers initiatives.
Gillingham Football Club is delighted to announce that further initiatives are planned between the Club and the Royal Engineers, who have been based in the Medway Towns since 1812.
At a meeting last week between Gills Chairman Paul Scally and Brigadier Matt Bazeley, it was agreed that the GFC Ladies will in the future use RE facilities for training on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, and indeed play some of their league fixtures on the RE Garrison pitch.
It was also agreed that the first team could benefit from use of specialist staff, facilities and fitness protocols delivered by the RE, and in return the Club would assist in working on initiatives and promoting recruitment for the Royal Engineers.
Chairman Paul Scally commented: "We have been working with the Royal Engineers on several projects over the years, and are extremely proud to assist our forces in our joint home towns – it is very exciting to be involved in discussing further joint initiatives as we strive to develop new Community projects".
The RE will be present at the Club when we honour our Armed Forces on Saturday 11 November, alongside Help for Heroes who will be doing bucket collections for their Charity".
Brigadier Bazeley states: "Working with Gillingham Football Club is an exciting prospect. The Royal Engineers have a historic and very close relationship with the Medway Towns. We see real common ground between service as a soldier and professional sport; determination, physical, teamwork, outcome focussed. So working with Gillingham Football Club is something we look forward to developing together."

At Sherbrook Animal Hospital, our Winnipeg veterinary team strongly believes in providing all pets with the quality treatment they need to lead healthier lives. One of the more common questions pet owners have when they schedule an appointment with us is "what are my payment options?" Please be aware that payment is due at the time services are rendered, as this allows us to focus on our patients' needs, customer services, and minimizing costs rather than billing.
As far as payment options go, we gladly accept cash, debit card and all major credit cards (Mastercard, American Express, Visa.
We understand that unexpected veterinary bills tend to happen at the worst possible time. This is why we have made arrangements through the reputable Medicard program, which can help you break down your veterinary bill into more management monthly payments. All you need to do is fill out an application online (which takes just a few minutes) to find out whether or not you're approved. From there, you have flexible repayment options to choose from with competitive interest rates, no collateral, and no down payment necessary. Plus, you can use your Medicard account to pay for a portion or all of your veterinary bill—and there are no early payment penalties should you decide to pay ahead.
In addition to credit card, cash, and Medicard, we also accept a variety of pet insurance policies in our office. If you don't already have pet insurance, now is a great time to look into a reputable company, such as Petsecure or Petplan. These insurance policies are very affordable and can provide you with the peace of mind you need in the event that your pet requires a medical procedure or other unexpected veterinary care.
Is your pet in need of a spay or neuter procedure but you're not sure you can afford it? We are happy to offer low-cost spay and neuter procedures because we strongly believe that every pet should be spayed or neutered. Doing so allows us to control the pet population and reduce overall euthanasia rates. Not to mention, spaying or neutering your pet comes with a number of health benefits, including a reduced risk for certain types of cancer. Many pet owners find that their pet has a better overall temperament after being spayed or neutered as well.
Talk to our team today about whether your pet is ready to be spayed or neutered based on age and weight.
Contact Our Veterinarian in Winnipeg Today!
To find out more about our payment options or to schedule an appointment with our veterinarian in Winnipeg, give Sherbrook Animal Hospital a call today at 204-774-3544. We look forward to meeting with you!


Tiina Treasure and her husband Danny Fernandez (plus their cats, Frida and Bowser) live in a Brooklyn apartment they've just recently finished repairing, decorating and creating a home within. Danny is a high school teacher and Tiina is a psychiatric social worker. However, Tiina got her BFA in film production — which she pursued before switching gears — and she still loves design, photography, art, and creative-based endeavors. All of Tiina's interests came into full view (and practice) as they were renovating their first apartment that they bought a year ago.


The concept of a "credit score" metric across federal agencies sounds as good as any for measuring cyber hygiene, but will the Department of Homeland Security's Agency-Wide Adaptive Risk Enumeration score actually improve the federal government's security posture?
I believe the AWARE score will likely succeed, because it is based on foundational controls. Very often, the biggest bang for the security buck lies in making sure foundational security controls are in place. The fundamentals of finding and patching vulnerabilities, making sure systems are securely configured and monitoring systems for change go a long way in maintaining a strong security posture. The AWARE score measures where an agency stands with operationalizing these controls.
While every agency aims to achieve a high AWARE score, the first objective should be to ensure that its security data is accurate. Until agencies are able to do that, the AWARE score will not reflect the reality of their systems.
How far are agencies from being able to report accurate data? Most are further away than one would assume. Only an agency operating at a relatively mature security level will be able to consistently report accurate information.
Identifying where an agency is from a maturity perspective is the first step in preparing for its initial AWARE score in 2020. From there, IT leaders can determine what operational capabilities will be needed to report accurate security data. Those capabilities include the ability to handle both continuous system monitoring and change detection, the depth and breadth of policy and platform coverage, the ability to provide holistic coverage of all necessary controls, and the ability to apply the AWARE metric throughout all environments -- on-premise and in virtual, private cloud and public cloud.
Is the organization adhering to a particular policy such as the National Institute of Standards and Technology's 800-53, the CIS critical security controls or the Defense Information Systems Agency's Security Technical Implementation Guides (DISA STIGs)?
Can the agency to continuously scan for vulnerabilities?
If a system falls out of compliance or if vulnerabilities are discovered, is there is an owner responsible for fixing it and are there policies and procedures in place to do so?
If the answer is "no" to any of the above questions, the agency must advance in the following areas before it can provide consistently accurate information for an AWARE score.
Asset management: Agencies must know where they keep their asset inventory and how they know how many assets they have. They should be able to identify where they store asset information, how up to date is it, how it gets updated as well as the change management process. In other words, they must know their current state at any given time.
Security frameworks: Is the agency compliant with a security policy such as DISA STIGs and, if not, is there a plan to become compliant? Agencies will need the right processes to get there, and security solutions must map to that policy.
Keep in mind, the whole purpose of the AWARE score is to continuously describe an agency's state of compliance and to remediate vulnerabilities. AWARE is not about achieving a high score once; agencies must maintain that score on an ongoing basis.
Why do I think agencies have a long way to go before they can generate an accurate AWARE score? The litmus test for any agency preparing for its AWARE score is if it can demonstrate compliance to NIST 800-53. If agencies are anything like commercial entities, it will likely take at least three days to generate an 800-53 compliance report. They may be able to generate a report for an audit, but they could not necessarily do it on any given day of the week. If an agency doesn't continuously know its state of compliance, it will not be able to remediate when it falls out of compliance.
Once agencies are confident in their ability to provide accurate information to generate an AWARE score, government security will likely improve significantly. It may just take a while before that confidence is in place.

Q: Validation of a form before submission Using Symfony, version 2.3 and more recent, I want the user to click on a link to go to the edition page of an already existing entity and that the form which is displayed to be already validated, with each error associated to its corresponding field, i.e. I want
the form to be validated before the form is submitted.
I followed this entry of the cookbook :
$form = $this->container->get('form.factory')->create(new MyEntityFormType, $myEntity, array('validation_groups' => 'my_validation_group'));
$form->submit($request->request->get($form->getName()));
if ($form->isValid()) {
    ...
}

But the form is not populated with the entity datas : all fields are empty. I tried to replace $request->request->get($form->getName()) with $myEntity, but it triggered an exception :
$myEntity cannot be used as an array in Symfony/Component/Form/Extension/Csrf/EventListener/CsrfValidationListener.php
Does anyone know a method to feed the submit method with properly formatted datas so I can achieve my goal ? Note : I don't want Javascript to be involved.

A: In place of:
$form->submit($request->request->get($form->getName()));

Try:
$form->submit(array(), false);

A: You need to bind the the request to the form in order to fill the form with the submitted values, by using: $form->bind($request);
Here is a detailed explanation of what your code should look like:
//Create the form (you can directly use the method createForm() in your controller, it's a shortcut to $this->get('form.factory')->create() )
$form = $this->createForm(new MyEntityFormType, $myEntity, array('validation_groups' => 'my_validation_group'));

// Perform validation if post has been submitted (i.e. detection of HTTP POST method)
if($request->isMethod('POST')){

    // Bind the request to the form
    $form->bind($request);

    // Check if form is valid
    if($form->isValid()){

        // ... do your magic ...

    }

}

// Generate your page with the form inside
return $this->render('YourBundle:yourview.html.twig', array('form' => $form->createView() ) );

Top South African referees Craig Joubert, Marius van der Westhuizen and Jaco Peyper have each been tasked with taking charge of two Tests during the November internationals, World Rugby announced on Wednesday.
World Rugby also announced that New Zealand's Mike Fraser, Ireland's George Clancy and the French duo of Jerome Garcés and Romain Poite will handle the Springboks' four Castle Lager Outgoing Tour matches.
Frazer will officiate the Boks' tour opener against the Barbarians at Wembley Stadium in England on 5 November, Garcés will take charge of the Test between the Springboks and England at Twickenham on 12 November, Clancy will be the man in the middle when South African take on Italy at Stadio A Franchi in Florence on 19 November, and Poite will be the referee in the Boks' final Test of the season, against Wales in Cardiff on 26 November.Joubert's first assignment is the Test between Wales and Australia at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff on 5 November, and he will be in action again when Fiji and Japan clash on 27 November at Stade de la Rabine in France.
Van der Westhuizen will take charge of the Tests between Ireland and Canada at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin on 12 November and the match between Wales and Japan in Cardiff on 19 November.
Peyper will hold the whistle in the Tests between Ireland and New Zealand in Dublin on 19 November, and England and Australia at Twickenham on 3 December.
"With a year gone since Rugby World Cup 2015, we are very much looking ahead and developing fresh talent towards RWC 2019 in Japan," said World Rugby Match Officials Selection Committee Chairman Anthony Buchanan.
"November provides us with a huge number of very challenging matches for the referees, assistant referees and TMOs. This gives us the opportunity to see how some emerging match officials perform under that increased pressure and intensity which international rugby provides.
"The ultimate goal is to arrive in Japan in 2019 with an established group of top-class, in-form officials with the necessary experience to perform at the highest level. Our focus continues to be clear and consistent decision-making and the highest standards of physical conditioning."

How BIG is Currency?
With the advent of online payment systems and the rise of debit cards, physical currency may seem like a relic of a bygone era. But right now, there's still a lot of it going around.
Let's examine how the total amount of United States, Euro, Yen, and total worldwide currency actually looks. Spoiler alert: it's big.
The Yen
The United States dollar is the world's most traded currency, with 1.61 trillion dollars circulating in coinage and notes.1, 2
So, how big is a dollar?
Stacked together, the 39.8 billion notes currently in circulation would take up 1.8 million cubic feet of space.5, 6
That amount of currency would fill 20 Olympic-sized swimming pools...7
...and would overflow the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool in the US Capital.7
Keep exploring! Click on another currency below to discover its true size.
The euro is the second most popular traded currency in the world, and the most popular in Europe.8
There are 82.3 billion €50 notes in circulation.
So, how big is the Euro? At 16.5 square inches each, all the €50 notes could completely cover New York City...
or the city of Indianapolis...
...or blanket the entire landscape of Badlands National Park. 11-13
The Japanese yen is third most traded currency in the world, and the most popular in Asia.14
So, how big is the yen?
There are 12.4 million ¥1 coins in circulation. Stacked on top of each other, that many coins could line the Las Vegas strip two times... 17, 18
could climb Mt. Everest almost twice...18
...and that same stack of coins could run the Preakness Stakes race eight times. 18
Total Worldwide
There is a name for the total value of worldwide currency stuffed into pockets, lost in couch cushions, and stored in bank vaults. Economists call it "M0." 19
The M0 for the entire planet hovers around $5 trillion. Let's see what that looks like. 20
Turns out that $5 trillion, or M0, takes up a lot of space. But we have to do a bit of abstracting to properly visualize it.
Let's assume that $5 trillion comes to us in $100 bills.
That M0 stack of bills would weigh twice as much as the Statue of Liberty. 21
Spread out, those bills would cover the entire Grand Canyon... 22
...and laid end-to-end, that M0 measure of $100 bills would circle all of planet Earth 194 times. 23
Now that's a lot of dough.

Many businesses and organisations we supply for in Milton Keynes, Peterborough, London and beyond have been adversely affected by cybercrime, flooding, fires, civil disturbance and data loss among others. The impacts can be severe causing substantial financial loss and businesses to close down. All businesses and organisations are susceptible to risks which may disrupt or prevent their activities. In an adverse event, some simple steps can assist you in preparing for these and continuing a limited service before returning back to full service delivery.
Essentially, Business Continuity is about identifying those parts of your organisation that you can't afford to lose –such as information, stock, premises, staff –and planning how to maintain these if an incident occurs.
Survive and thrive. The goal is to not only survive adverse events but to thrive in the aftermath. This could be as simple as better business processes, or it could mean out manoeuvring business competition to increase you market share while you competitors stumble.
Either way, at Tatry Group we have deep understanding of how our services fit in and enhance an organisation's business continuity and overall resilience or risk management strategy.
Contact us today for a free no obligation meeting to discuss how we can add value to your organisation.

As demand to build along coastlines is increasing, so too is demand to protect built infrastructure from climate change impacts such as flooding. These mitigation projects also have a high carbon footprint. Wetlands International reports that methods are being developed, combining ecosystem-based solutions and engineering techniques, to defend coastal infrastructure, reduce the carbon footprint of mitigation projects, as well reap additional environmental benefits. Read more here.
IUCN has released an issue brief on nature-based solutions for managing risk. It explains, discusses, and presents solutions to the issue of increasing disaster and climate change risk. Some of the ecosystem based solutions discussed are: increasing vegetation/forest cover to stabilize slopes prone to landslide, mangrove restoration to protect from storm surges, and coral reef preservation to reduce wave energy during coastal storms Read the brief here.
This blog post focuses on the connection between the COP21 Paris Agreement and the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction adopted in March 2015. The connection between the two frameworks is critical, as global warming is making many ecosystems more prone to extreme weather events. The blog advocates for linking these two agreements together to reduce vulnerability, by integrating disaster preparedness with climate change mitigation/adaptation. Read the article here.
Frances Seymour, senior fellow at the Center for Global Development, advocates that the protection of forest ecosystems should be considered in the decisions made by world leaders. She shares that protecting forests have a "triple win" effect – not only does it combat climate change, it also creates sustainable livelihoods and improves the resilience of households and communities. Read more here.
IRIN presents an analysis of the Paris Agreement, highlighting both the positive and negative aspects. Pertinent points related to environment include that: the agreement will not prevent already inevitable impacts of climate change; there is a focus on helping countries adapt to climate change; and there is a long term goal of zero net emissions using greenhouse gas sinks. More here.
In this TED Talk by Rachel Kyte, Vice President and special envoy for climate change at the World Bank, resilience is defined and explained within the context of rising social and economic losses from disasters due to climate change. Resilience is especially discussed in relation to the ecosystems in which people live in and create. A case is made for public and private investment in disaster risk management. Watch the TED Talk here.
The 7th Global Forum on Urban Resilience and Adaptation, which will take place 6-8 July 2016 in Bonn, Germany, is looking for contributors. Themes include: measuring/monitoring risk, ecosystem-based adaptation, and tackling progress on global frameworks. Contributions may include presentations, panels, or workshops. Deadline for applications is 8 January 2016. Find out more here.

How to Teach English to Korean Children
KRISTY AMBROSE
Some cultures take to English language learning with more enthusiasm and discipline than others. If you are fortunate enough to be an English as a Second Language Teacher in a classroom of Korean students, the part of the lesson where you fill your students with enthusiasm and herd them into a coherent group is mostly done for you. Korean culture places a huge amount of value on learning English and instills a deep respect for the teaching profession.
Teach your students the Latin alphabet first using flash cards or the white board if they are beginners. Instruct your students in the individual letters and sounds before introducing them to more complex vowel and consonant combinations.
Sing songs to advance your students to English pronunciation. Many of your students will be familiar with popular English children's songs like Happy Birthday and many Christmas songs.
Use exercises that focus on syllables to teach your students vowel and consonant clusters. Examples of such exercises include composing a haiku (a type of poem built around syllables), deconstructing the lyrics of a song, or activities like clapping out the sounds in a word. Include sounds, music and movement whenever space and time permits. This will help them become familiar with the pronunciation, including sounds and stress.
Utilize computer and online resources as often as possible, as Korean students of all ages (even kindergartners and some pre-schoolers) are familiar with computers and will be comfortable with this medium. Computers with Windows-based operating systems are preferable. Koreans will have computers and Internet connections at home, so this can also be assigned as homework. A Korean student unfamiliar with computers and the Internet would be very unusual, as this is an integral part of their culture. There are numerous resources available online. In fact, there are so many co-operative and university-based websites available that you might have trouble choosing between them. You can also compose your own computer-based lessons with programs such as Hot Potatoes or ExE.
Use computers for more than just online exercises and games. Subtitled videos and media players that can be used for record and playback are also readily available on most computers, and they can still be used without an Internet connection.
Whether you are teaching at a public or private school, in or outside Korea, parents take their students education seriously and you will be expected to give regular updates. Always be as complimentary as possible to avoid "loss of face."
The literacy rate in Korea is 99 percent. This is because Hangul, the native tongue, has a simple, but sophisticated alphabet that is taught using pictures and traceable letters. You can use this same tactic when teaching beginners the Latin alphabet, hence the flash cards. These can be substituted with photocopies or even letters and sketches in the white board. Koreans also have a vibrant computer culture. Many of your students will be avid online gamers and adept computer users, so any exercises using a computer will be well-received.

Anti-money laundering laws require forex brokerages to have in place adequate internal systems for spotting suspicious activities and reporting it to appropriate authorities. Suitable due diligence process implemented with a risk-based approach is a critical component of an effective compliance program which guard companies against being used by criminals for money laundering purposes and other types of financial crime.
Most obligations concerning prevention and detection of money laundering derive from the FATF Recommendations. In their first Recommendation the FATF stress the importance of risk assessment by both public authorities as well as private sector firms. While public authorities identify the threats at the national level, the private sector firms identify the vulnerabilities, which are specific to them (such as certain products or services they offer that are attractive to money launderers). According to the FATF this so-called risk-based approach (RBA) is an effective way to combat money laundering. Its promise is national authorities and private sector firms will take appropriate measures which are proportionate to the risk identified. It means enhanced measures should be taken where there are higher risks. Although conducting risk assessment can be challenging, costly and time-consuming, it offers potential benefits as well. With the RBA, firms are able to better manage their risk and cost- benefits as well as focus on real and identified threads.
Forex brokerages covered by the FATF obligations are also required to have certain policies and procedures. Most importantly they need to be able to verify the identity of their customers ( so called Know Your Customer (KYC)). There is a high emphasis on the importance of identifying the risk associated with a particular customer, referred to as Customer Due Diligence (CDD).
Essentially, CDD is based upon the institution identifying their customers and verifying their identity. They should use information that is obtained from a reliable independent source, such as passports, national identity cards and utility bills. A company is also required to take adequate steps to establish the identity of the ultimate beneficial owner, in cases when that person is different from the customer.
Institutions should also obtain information about the nature and purpose of the business carried by their customers. Understanding the business of the customers is essential for forex brokerages to be aware of the expected account activity and normal business related transactions. Essentially CDD allows financial institutions to detect some of those customers who are using false identities or have no legitimate purposes.
At the customer take- on stage, CDD is essential to detect and prevent money laundering. However, it should be recognized that criminals will always find ways to carry their illegitimate activities and for this reason other defenses also should be used.
In order to detect money laundering, forex brokerages should also implement an account and transaction monitoring program. Such monitoring is conducted based to the RBA. According to it, low-risk customers are being monitored less rigorously than those who pose higher risks. CDD is essential to identify the risks posed by particular customers and categorize them according to their intensity. Such monitoring will be able to identify the placement as well as the layering stage of money laundering.
Lastly, in their twentieth Recommendation the FATF stress the importance of reporting of suspicious transaction. Hence, institutions covered by the provisions of the FATF when having spotted an activity or a transaction that is outside the norm, should decide if it is truly suspicious and should be reported. Reports should be made promptly to the national Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) when there is actual suspicion or reasonable grounds for suspicion of money laundering. In the UK, for example, a duty is placed on employees in business in a regulated sector to make reports where it is known or suspected that someone is engaged is money laundering.

PAEDO WORSHIP
Gill was one of the most respected artists of the 20th Century. His statue Prospero and Ariel adorns the BBC's Broadcasting House and the Creation of Adam is in the lobby of the Palais des Nations, now the European HQ of the United Nations in Geneva.
But MacCarthy's book revealed that he regularly had sex with two of his daughters, his sisters and even the family dog. These encounters he recorded in his diary.
Most problematically, he was a Catholic convert (CRYPTO JEW) who created some of the most popular devotional art of his era, such as the Stations of the Cross in Westminster Cathedral, where worshippers pray at each panel depicting the suffering of Jesus.
"He abused his maids, his prostitutes, animals, he was having sex with everything that moved – a very deranged man sexually."
But the Catholic Church (PAEDO HQ CRYPTO JEW DIVISION)) would not budge an inch. The former Westminster Cathedral administrator, Bishop George Stack, retains an unequivocal view.
"There was no consideration given to taking these down. A work of art stands in its own right. Once it has been created it takes on a life of its own."

Thank you Gordon for providing such an informative piece.

I look forward in earnest to sharing the dock with you later this year when the so-called 'Extremism Prevention Orders' are rolled out later this year by the Shadow Government in order to silence anyone who dares to speak the truth and proclaim liberty and justice.

@ Jennifer:
I tend to listen to UK radio online and I've been hearing "From Global's Newsroom" for some time now. The first time I heard it sometime last year, my ears picked up on it. Up until then, I think they used the phrase "From the Sky Newsroom". I wonder if they'll change it again any day now to "From Global Conflict and the Shit's Finally Hit the Fan Newsroom"?
Delmer, Sefton (1904-1979), former British Chief of "Black propaganda": "Atrocity propaganda is how we won the war… And we're only really beginning with it now! We will continue this atrocity propaganda, we will escalate it until nobody will accept even a good word from the Germans, until all the sympathy they may still have abroad will have been destroyed and they themselves will be so confused that they will no longer know what they are doing. Once that has been achieved, once they begin to run down their own country and their own people, not reluctantly but with eagerness to please the victors, only then will our victory be complete. It will never be final. Re-education needs careful tending, like an English lawn. Even one moment of negligence, and the weeds crop up again – those indestructible weeds of historical truth." (Said after the German surrender, in 1945, in a conversation with the German professor of international law, Dr. Friedrich Grimm.)

Regarding that Prospero and Ariel statue, Gill was instructed to downsize the boy's genitalia from that originally planned – in pre-construction drawings he submitted I assume.
I find it an ugly and 'suggestive' – as I'm sure it's meant to be – work of ass, I mean art and think it should be removed. I'm a bit loathe to destroying art and I think this one should be put in a museum – along with many others I suppose – as a permanent reminder and warning of the sickos and paedos that exist in the world.

ART IS HOLISTIC. IT GETS DEEP INTO THE SUB-CONSCIOUS ( WHICH IS A MASSIVE PARALLEL PROCESSING SYSTEM THAT USES SYMBOLS,which can mean many things ). IT IS ABOUT TIME THAT ARTISTS MATURED AND WERE MORE AWARE OF WHAT DAMAGE AND DESTRUCTION THEY HAVE CAUSED. TYRANTS KNOW THIS ( EVEN IF ONLY INSTINCLIVELY ). WHAT " GOD-GIVEN " RIGHT HAVE ARTISTS TO VOMIT THEIR PSYCHOSIS & NEUROSIS OVER OTHER UNSUPECTING VICTIMS.

Geoffrey Sidebottom (26 December 1936 – 3 November 2008) was an English professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper.

Career
Sidebottom joined Wolverhampton Wanderers from their Yorkshire-based nursery club Wath Wanderers in 1954. Due to the talent of Bert Williams and Malcolm Finlayson, he had to wait until 1 November 1958 to make his first team debut, in a 2–1 defeat to West Bromwich Albion.

He managed 35 appearances for Wolves, including playing in the 1960 Charity Shield, before moving to their Midlands neighbours Aston Villa in February 1961. He broke through to their starting XI and played in their 1961 League Cup triumph over Rotherham United.

After 88 games in total for Villa, he joined Scunthorpe United in January 1965 and was a near-ever present in the 1965-66 season for them before losing his spot to the emerging Ray Clemence.

He had a spell playing in America with the New York Generals during 1967-68 when signed by his former Scunthorpe manager Freddie Goodwin. He later followed Goodwin back to England to join Brighton and Hove Albion in January 1969 before retiring in 1971.

Sidebottom appeared on the US game show What's My Line! which aired on CBS on Sunday 11 June 1967.

He died on 3 November 2008, aged 71.

Useful tips on using a debit card or credit card to pay when you travel abroad.
What is the best way to pay for purchases outside of Switzerland? In most cases, your choices will be limited to paying in cash in the local currency, using a debit card (the Maestro Card is the most common) or using a credit card.
Financial services providers normally charge either a fixed fee or a fixed percentage of each transaction when you use your debit card to pay in a foreign currency. The most widely available debit card networks in Europe is the Maestro network, owned by U.S. payment network MasterCard. The V-Pay debit card from Visa is also becoming increasingly popular in Europe.
The PostFinance Card is one of the most popular debit cards in Switzerland. But while you can use the PostFinance Card to pay at many merchants within Switzerland, it cannot be used to pay for purchases outside of the country (you can make cash withdrawals at Eufiserv and Visa Plus ATMs).
The fees you pay for Maestro and V-Pay transactions will depend on the terms and conditions of the checking account or banking combo attached to the card.
Cost of using your debit card to pay for purchases abroad: 1% to 1.5% of the purchase amount or between CHF 1 and CHF 2.50 per transaction. A combination of both types of fees is common. For example, you may pay a base fee of CHF 1.50 plus 0.5% of the purchase amount. You also pay a markup on currency exchange rates.
Unfortunately, you pay a fee to make cash money withdrawals outside of Switzerland using your Maestro or V-Pay debit card. Depending on the card issuer, you will pay between 3 and 5 francs per withdrawal. Some banks also charge a percentage of the amount you withdraw, typically 0.25% to 0.8%.
As if that weren't enough: Depending on the ATM you use, you may pay additional fees imposed by the ATM's operator. As much as possible, avoid using non-bank ATMs, such as those operated by currency exchange services, as they often charge above-average fees.
Withdrawing cash from your account at the counter of a foreign bank can be equally expensive.
Every time you use a credit card to pay for a purchase in a foreign currency, credit card issuers charge you a foreign transaction fee and currency exchange markups. Foreign transaction fees range between 1.2% and 2.5% of each transaction, depending on the credit card you use.
Using a credit card to get cash outside of the country will hit your wallet hard. You will pay fees equal to as much as 4 percent of the amount you draw, with a minimum charge of 10 francs per cash advance. Add to that the foreign transaction fee, currency spread markups and possible ATM operator fees, and you are paying crazy amounts of money.
The specific card you use will determine whether a debit card or credit card is the more affordable way to pay. The rule of thumb is: Credit cards work out cheaper when used directly to pay for small purchases. Debit cards are normally the more affordable way to make large payments.
It is also worth taking possible credit card rewards and cash back programs into account. The moneyland.ch comparison tool accounts for these savings.
Never use a credit card to get cash, unless you have no other choice. Use your debit card (Maestro, V-Pay, PostFinance) instead. Just be aware that fees also apply to cash withdrawals made with a debit card.
Inform yourself about the most affordable ATM options at your destination before you travel. Ask your bank or search the web for useful information.
For example, your bank may have partnerships with financial services providers in the country which you will be visiting, and you could save a lot of money on fees by withdrawing money at those partners during your visit.

Q: How to determine if an array is present in JQ Hi so I have a curl command for checking some data on an api, then using jq to parse the data for only relevant information.
The issue is some of the data contains a certain class known as .result.CVE_Items[].configurations.nodes[].children[] but others do not have it. So I am trying to write an if, elif and else statement that will parse the data. I am trying to figure out how to place an elif statement to check if this class is present .result.CVE_Items[].configurations.nodes[].children[] and if it is present for it to query the data.
Below are the two commands where one contains the class and the other one doesn't contain the class and brings an error:

# First command works: has the class

curl -s https://services.nvd.nist.gov/rest/json/cve/1.0/CVE-2020-12389 | jq -r 'if .totalResults == 1 then . | {CVE: .result.CVE_Items[].cve.CVE_data_meta.ID, Description: .result.CVE_Items[].cve.description.description_data[].value, "CVSS V3 Score": .result.CVE_Items[].impact.baseMetricV3.cvssV3.baseSeverity, "Attack Vector": .result.CVE_Items[].impact.baseMetricV3.cvssV3.attackVector, "Privileges Required": .result.CVE_Items[].impact.baseMetricV3.cvssV3.privilegesRequired, "User Interaction": .result.CVE_Items[].impact.baseMetricV3.cvssV3.userInteraction, "Impact Score": .result.CVE_Items[].impact.baseMetricV3.impactScore, "Products Affected": [.result.CVE_Items[].configurations.nodes[].children[].cpe_match[].cpe23Uri]} else . | {Results: .message} end'

  ]
}

# Second command as the above but different data output and doesn't contain the class hence errors out.

curl -s https://services.nvd.nist.gov/rest/json/cve/1.0/CVE-2020-0796 | jq -r 'if .totalResults == 1 then . | {CVE: .result.CVE_Items[].cve.CVE_data_meta.ID, Description: .result.CVE_Items[].cve.description.description_data[].value, "CVSS V3 Score": .result.CVE_Items[].impact.baseMetricV3.cvssV3.baseSeverity, "Attack Vector": .result.CVE_Items[].impact.baseMetricV3.cvssV3.attackVector, "Privileges Required": .result.CVE_Items[].impact.baseMetricV3.cvssV3.privilegesRequired, "User Interaction": .result.CVE_Items[].impact.baseMetricV3.cvssV3.userInteraction, "Impact Score": .result.CVE_Items[].impact.baseMetricV3.impactScore, "Products Affected": [.result.CVE_Items[].configurations.nodes[].children[].cpe_match[].cpe23Uri]} else . | {Results: .message} end'

    "cpe:2.3:o:microsoft:windows_server_2016:1909:*:*:*:*:*:*:*"
  ]
}

I have tried has("children") and has("children[]") but nothing has worked and I really don't have a clue, I have checked all the github issues raised for checking an element before parsing and also did a search on stackoverflow. I have also checked the docs. I would love it to be in one command where it first check if totalResults == 1 and has(children) == false to query the information elif totalResults == 1 and has(children) == true to query the information else to print out the error message which means the data is not available.
Kindly assist
thanks.

A: So @peak gave me some ideas on how to solve this... this code solves it.
curl -s https://services.nvd.nist.gov/rest/json/cve/1.0/CVE-2020-11066
| jq -r 'if .totalResults == 1 then .result.CVE_Items[]
| .cve.CVE_data_meta.ID as $ID
| .cve.description.description_data[].value as $value
| .configurations.nodes[] as $node
| if $node | (type == "object" and has("children"))
then .impact.baseMetricV3 |
{CVE: $ID, Description: $value,
"CVSS V3 Score": .cvssV3.baseSeverity,
"Attack Vector": .cvssV3.attackVector,
"Privileges Required": .cvssV3.privilegesRequired,
"User Interaction": .cvssV3.userInteraction,
"Impact Score": .impactScore,
"Products Affected": [$node.children[].cpe_match[].cpe23Uri]}
else .impact.baseMetricV3 |
{CVE: $ID, Description: $value,
"CVSS V3 Score": .cvssV3.baseSeverity,
"Attack Vector": .cvssV3.attackVector,
"Privileges Required": .cvssV3.privilegesRequired,
"User Interaction": .cvssV3.userInteraction,
"Impact Score": .impactScore,
"Products Affected": [$node.cpe_match[].cpe23Uri]}
end else . | {Results: .message} end'

So basically if you follow the above answer, @peak showed us how to place an if statement to check if the object class children is present inside an if statement. The else statement fixes our issue and we are good to go.

A: A glib answer would be to say to use the following if/then/else structure:
if .result.CVE_Items[].configurations.nodes[] | has("children")
then ...
else ...
end

But what is to say that each of the arrays has length equal to 1? Or that the item in the nodes array is a JSON object?
So perhaps it would be better to write something like:
.result.CVE_Items[0].configurations.nodes[0] as $node
| if ($node | ( type == "object" and has("children") ))
  then ...
  else ...
  end

But the same problem exists with the rest of your query, which runs the risk not only of generating an error, but also of generating an unwanted combinatorial explosion.
So what you should probably do is introduce jq variables along the way to ensure that you are only selecting as many items as you really want, as illustrated in the following section.
On a minor note: instead of (. | E) you can simply write E.
Example
    if .totalResults == 1
    then .result.CVE_Items[]
    | .cve.CVE_data_meta.ID as $ID
    | .cve.description.description_data[].value as $value
    | .configurations.nodes[] as $node
    | if $node | (type == "object" and has("children"))
      then .impact.baseMetricV3
      |  {CVE: $ID,
          Description: $value,
          "CVSS V3 Score":  .cvssV3.baseSeverity,
          "Attack Vector":  .cvssV3.attackVector,
          "Privileges Required": .cvssV3.privilegesRequired,
          "User Interaction": .cvssV3.userInteraction,
          "Impact Score": .impactScore,
          "Products Affected": [$node.children[].cpe_match[].cpe23Uri]}
      else {Results: .message}
      end
    else {Results: .message}
    end


Move the trash container away from whatever was blocking it and call the Solid Waste Department at 573-592-3170 to request a return pickup. We keep track of all addresses we are asked to return to for a pickup. If it is the first time, no additional charges will be applied. However, if repeated return trips have to be made to the same address, you will be charged a fee of $14.
