Project Details
Since 2011, a role-playing game, a board game and a digital interactive simulation platform have been developed. The MSP Challenge Simulation Platform editions have been used in workshops, conferences, education, as well as for real life stakeholder engagement. The researchers give an overview of the development of the MSP Challenge Simulation Platform and reflect on the value of the approach as an engaging and 'fun' tool for building mutual understanding and communicating MSP. We apply MSP Challenge Simulation Platform in workshops and demos to help develop a global learning MSP community.

Training for basing skills at home and in between practices will help to increase your strength and improve your skills for practice. LOADED MOVEMENT is a very effective way to train your basing skills, that is far more efficient than simple strength training.
LOADED MOVEMENT describes any type of exercise (or any everyday movement) where we add more effort to manage an external force against our body. For example:
Picking up and moving a box (the load is a static object)
Performing a pushup (the load is our body weight)
Lifting a flyer (the load is another person/moving object)
Loaded movement training can be categorised by four general types:
Stabilising Strength Training (such as barre, pilates and Yoga, where the load focuses on improving our body and joint stability)
Generic Strength Training (such as bicep curls, loaded squats, weight-lifting exercises)
Functional Strength Training (such as cross-fit or functional pattern style training, which work on loading everyday human movement)
Skill-Specific Strength Training (specific to a sport or movement, such as a loaded drill, or using our INTENSITY cheer conditioning and BODY BEFORE SKILL workouts for cheerleading).
When your body starts using additional resistance your body will adapt and become stronger (as long as your technique and posture is correct). Benefits of training with loaded movement include:
Muscles: become stronger and more efficient for basing.
Bones become stronger and resistant to impact.
Joints become more stable and adapted to added weight.
Movements: become smoother and more precise (as long as your technique is correct).
Metabolism: maximises fat burn.
Mentally: increased confidence and boosts your mood.
Body shape: Improved overall tone and shape.
Skills: Improved sport-specific movements.
Effort: Your body adapts to be more efficient and needing less effort for skill repetitions and full-outs.
Some people get scared that strength training will make them look like a body builder. Ie their muscles will increase in size and you will end up with an excessively muscular look. HYPERTROPHY (the proper name for this phenomenon) is very difficult to achieve. That's why bodybuilders spend an entire career doing it: it requires such a precise balance of diets, supplements, training regime that is almost a full-time job.
Loaded movement or even simple strength training for 1 or 2 hours a week will get you nowhere near the levels of hypertrophy to even see a big difference in muscle size. However, your body will shape, improve your strength and efficiency for strength skills.
Plus, you're lifting a much smaller weight than a flyer, so training with weights at home is no-where near as tough or leading towards hypertrophy as repeating stunts over and over again! If you do want to work on increasing muscle size, you can always progress to more advanced loaded movement training with a combined nutrition strategy.
In respect to cheerleading, SKILL-SPECIFICITY means choosing a particular exercise designed for a specific skill, making sure that the loaded movement is productive:
Productive example: Using weights to build a basing skill, gradually increasing the weight and the load using correct technique. This is productive because you're training a loaded movement (basing) using the correct training method for this skill.
Counterproductive example: Training cheer jumps with ankle weights. Even though it seems like common sense; it's counterproductive: using strength training to train a skill which is based on explosive power and active flexibility. Adding too much weight will compromise the quality of movement, joint stability and will not increase explosive power.
Based on what you're after, there are two ways in which you can use loaded movement training:
Training strength: improve the maximum amount of force your muscles can lift in a single repetition (cheer example: how high can you throw a basket toss)
Training endurance: the ability of a muscle group to work continuously/for a long time without tiring (cheer example: how many basket tosses can you throw before needing a break).
You can also work on combinations of both, by varying repetition, movement, and resting phases. Our Youtube
Playlist features lots of ideas and exercises for cheer training at home. The CCA Members Area features many more videos with skill-specific drills and choreographed conditioning.
If you want to focus on load-based stunt training here are our recommendations:
PRACTICE YOUR STUNTS: Holding a dumbell (remember to start small!) and focusing on your posture. Practice the stunts and counts you usually practice with your team.
FIX YOUR CORE: Instead of doing crunches, spend time fixing your core. Lie on your back lifting your legs and focus on getting your back fully in contact with the floor.
TRAIN YOUR SHOULDER STABILITY: Using planks, headstands and walking around with weights overhead. Focus on keeping a good posture.
TRAIN YOUR SHOULDER MOBILITY: Practice bridges and chest opening exercises.
TRAIN YOUR GRIP: With dynamic mobility and increasing your strength with loaded movements. Focus on keeping your grip "fluid/active" rather than stiff and frozen.
LOADED SQUATS: Training a variety of squats, lunges and dynamic leg movements, loaded with small weights and added arm positions. See first video in this article.
TECHNIQUE & CO-ORDINATION: Practice the loaded movements we demonstrate in the first video of this article, starting with small weights and increasing your resistance.
IMPROVE STAMINA: It's one thing to have strength for one stunt, it's a whole different thing having enough endurance and strength over a 2-hour training session and an intense 2.5min routine. Training your endurance with a HIIT workout such as the INTENSITY series can really boost your performance.
Basing technique posters: available for downloading & printing in the CCA Coaches Area
CORE & POSTURE: This should be your focus before trying any loaded movements.
PROGRESSIONS: Weight training should have progressions to be safe and be useful, just as you would expect from your tumbling.
TECHNIQUE: Weight training with lousy technique can also be dangerous and cause injuries. Make sure you fully understand the method and get guidance before you try anything new - whether it's conditioning, stunting or tumbling.
SPOTTER / SUPERVISION: if you're training at home and trying something new, make sure your are being helped or supervised by another adult - if anything, to help each other keep your posture and technique in check.
TRUST & EXPERTISE: Trust yourself or your trainer before trying any loaded movement, and only take training advice from trusted resources. Always check the certifications, accreditations or affiliations of the information sources to trust.
PAIN ALERT: "No pain - no gain" is a dangerous philosophy. Yes, a bit of muscle soreness proves you have been working hard but under no circumstance should there be pain.
AGE & LIMITATIONS: Younger athletes should only work on light loaded movements and always be assisted.
Loaded training can start with something as simple as using lightweights to practice your stunt moves. From there, you can always progress further into exercises and strength conditioning programs that really pushed your athletic ability.
For example, the CCA Members Area also features advanced progressions for loaded movement training. Some of these exercises were designed with male cheerleaders in mind, to offer a tailored workout for male athletes. However, they can be executed by all, as long as they are preceded by a quality progressive overload approach.

AbstractWe report the evolution of high temperature thermoelectric properties of SrTiO3 thin films doped with Nb and oxygen vacancies. Structure-property relations in this important thermoelectric oxide are elucidated and the variation of transport properties with dopant concentrations is discussed. Oxygen vacancies are incorporated during growth or annealing in Ar/H2 above 800 K. An increase in lattice constant due to the inclusion of Nb and oxygen vacancies is found to result in an increase in carrier density and electrical conductivity with simultaneous decrease in carrier effective mass and Seebeck coefficient. The lattice thermal conductivity at 300 K is found to be 2.22 W m-1 K-1, and the estimated figure of merit is 0.29 at 1000 K. © 2013 American Chemical Society.

There is no week, and even a day recently, that new information connected with the Smoleńsk catastrophe would not appear. Do they bring us closer to the truth about the catastrophe – it is not known. Because two and a half years after those events instead of an answer, there are more and more doubts
In the civilizational country, no matter what the reason for the catastrophe was, the government could resign. It all would be about the fact that somebody impartial would judge the matter, because 'we' are emotionally engaged in it. It is also about our good name so that nobody would accuse us of deceiving, or inverting a cat tail up etc.
It is also known that every failure to comply duties might result in the catastrophe (maybe not mentioning a terrorist assassination, which governing people cannot influence). After the events of much less burden, some governing politicians resigned. Whereas there was a tragedy at Smoleńsk which does not have any equivalent! And nothing. The government is still lasting as it has used to so far. What's more: the matter started being explained by those who may be responsible for this catastrophe.
The government should have resigned also when it appeared that the swap of bodies had happened, as well as mistakes and transporting of the body of the President among the places of burials, etc. However, nothing like that happened.
Not in their own graves
We have not forgotten yet about what relatives of Anna Walentynowicz, Teresa Walewska-Przyjałkowska, Ryszard Kaczorowski and Tadeusz Lutoborski had been experiencing in relation to the mistakes (before that Przemysław Gosiewski, Janusz Kurtyka and Zbigniew Wassermann had been exhumed) and now other exhumations are announced. This week (till 11 November) there were supposed to be exhumations of two deceased priests: Fr. Zdzisław Król, a chaplain of Warsaw Family of Katyń and Fr. Prof. Ryszard Rumianek, a rector of the University of Cardinal Stefan Wyszyński in Warsaw. In the end of the last week it was clear unofficially because procurators do not express their opinions before actions.
– But we know it is surely all about Fr. Król and Fr. Rumianek. Because – with all respect to other priests – these are well-known and respected people and it was impossible to conceal that they had not been laid into their own graves- emphasizes an MP asking for maintaining his anonymity. Fr. Prof. Ryszard Rumianek was laid into a grave not on the graveyard in Warsaw Ursynów but in the Divine Providence Church in Wilanów. And Fr. Zdzisław Król was laid into his grave not in the Church but in Pyry. It is also unofficially known that this year other two exhumations were to take place. There is a justified suspicion again that the casualties bodies are not in their graves.
A townsman from the Federal Security Service
Information about these mistakes are inscribed in the whole sequence of events in relation to the catastrophe. Many strange things are happening, and mistaking the bodies, coffins is one of the saddest situation shocking everybody in the recent weeks. – These are unusual matters which result from what had been taking place since the first hours after the catastrophe: neglect of the government and the way of conducting the investigation by Polish procurators – says the MP Piotr Babinetz from the Parliamentarian Team for Investigation of the Catastrophe Causes of TU-154M. Before that we had dealt with various unclear, sometimes tragic events connected with the Smoleńsk catastrophe. But the suicidal death of the ensign Remigiusz Muś, one of the most important witnesses of the investigation, questioning registers of the so-called black box of the presidential airplane given by Russia, raises suspicions.
In the web, the photos of the Smoleńsk catastrophe casualties were revealed again. The photographs were placed by the same Gloger, as before, in September, 'A townsman from Barnau'. The 'old' photos can also be found there, and it happens so despite declarations of the Russian authorities that they would help remove these photos from Internet. It cannot raise doubts about the intention of the Eastern neighbor and its services.
Epicenter of events
However, the publication of 'Rzeczpospolita' became the epicenter of events as well as its aftermaths which seem to stagger wider and wider circles. In opinion of MP Jacek Świat, a member of the Parliamentarian Team for the Investigation of Catastrophe Causes, a widower of Aleksandra Natalia-Świat – one of the Smoleńsk catastrophe casualties, in dementia of procurators, the most important fact is that it has been denied what had been said by the way, that over two and a half years nothing or little has been done. Only now investigations have been done on the presence of explosive materials. It is not known why (or just it is known!) the samples of the airplane, equipment, ground, the bodies of the casualties have not been taken.
There are more and more questions, and we are in the zero point after two and a half years. Worse than in the zero point, because some evidences, a possibility of gaining them have been lost forever. Not everything is lost but it is going to be much more difficult to explain what really happened at Smoleńsk.
Going to a graveyard on the All Saints' Day, Jacek Świat was not sure if he was visiting a grave of his wife. – I have been sure so till now. I do not have doubts about the identification because the documentation which I was reading looked very credible. I was also ensured by the general procurator- Mr Seremet, that there was no mistake here. However, we are not sure whether the swap of the bodies did not take place and in the case of Anna Walentynowicz, where the identification did not raise doubts either…

I spent about 4 years at Incirlik airbase, 86 to 1990 , traveled all over that country .. best Assignment I ever had!
Went to DC last Sunday 28th walked around the mall for about 8/9 hours on the 29th . saw a lot of things . all good. herd Mr. Ken Burns and
novick. they told some grate story from the film they made. I was so glad I went.
I have a real good friend in Denver Colorado.His name is Bruce Baker.Good man and he is an old Nam.Vet.Him Bob Farris and I went down to the stand off at the Bundy Ranch.We maned a LPOP about 300 hundred meters from the drive way too Clivin Bundys house.All the news outlets told some big lies on that deal.Google Daniel P love of the BLM.Well I will get off my rant to much info to tell here, Back to Bruce he has a youtube channel.He has parody songs.I love my brother Bruce but he can't sing for crap,but he can blow a killer sax.If you could help him out and hit the subscribe button it would help him get some funding. Google BruceInDenver.I know after you hear his voice you can beat me like a pinata in the comments and dick bomb me.Look up the Pueblo VA in Colorado and tell my Doctor I love prostate examinations.SGT.Smitty out
Albuquerque day one. Found the problem, burnt M2 mirror big time. Fortunately Southwest saw fit to deliver my toolbag last night around midnight so I had everything for this morning. Woof, how annoying. TSA, thanks a heap for delaying my bags. Last time I checked, terrorists don't go around tightening hex screws. I'd be even more impressed if I found a terrorist who could find his way into the luggage cargo compartment on the plane! Heavens to Mergatroyd.
Okay, I am not sure where to start, but I would like to contact Senior Chief via email if possible. I work for a Seed Company and we sell a variety of seeds (from grass seed, to cover crops, to food plots). I would like to send him some food plots to use. Also, I would like more information on the charity. My wife and I like to donate money to various charities, and I am obviously interested in helping them. If he reads this and can access my profile, then I would love to get an email. It's something that has been weighing on me over the weekend. Like I mentioned before it is more than just listening to him bust phonies. I really love what the Shipleys are all about.
Can't wait for the phony!!! Don I used to go to Louisiana for speckled trout if it's the same fish it's one of the tastiest fish I've eaten. Good luck post some pics.
Took Yukon in and found out that the screeching noise was caused by a worn out serpentine belt, and some other belt, and bad tensioners. Purring like a kitten again. Thanks Smitty, and everybody who tred to help me figure it out.
Poor Kathy Griffin and CNN. They FUCKED UP big time with that disgusting photo of the beheading of Trump. Most of her "scheduled" shows are cancelling her. NOT SAD.
D&D is there a chance we could get a video or a picture of our paver when done


text: Levellers release new single 'Calling Out' 22/05/2020 News 5 LEVELLERS BRAND NEW SINGLE 'CALLING OUT' WATCH THE VIDEO HERE THE NEW ALBUM PEACE OUT 14TH AUGUST The Levellers have released the brand new single 'Calling Out', taken from their forthcoming new studio album Peace, which will be released on the 14th August via On The Fiddle Recordings. Pre-order the album here. 'Calling Out' is a song that recalls troubled times and incidents, reflecting on the change of perception which can result from trauma, and the ways that familiar senses can alter in new situations and call out with new meaning. The video sees singer/guitarist Simon Friend trapped in a lo-fi sitcom documenting his struggles as he lives through a nightmare day trying to find solace in freedom but is in fact tied down with the battles of day to day living. Regarding the single bassist Jeremy Cunningham says, "'Calling Out' had a long gestation period and went through a few different versions before we were finally happy with it. It slowly changed from a more acoustic folk song into the final guitar monster on the album. "The song tackles small scale frustration and anger, mundane issues and feeling trapped in ones own life. Then it switches to the bigger picture, finally drawing attention to our undervalued public services. It's classic Levellers observational song writing." The new single follows the album's lead single, 'Food Roof Family', which confronts the misleading and deceptive tactics used by the media and last week's limited video stream of 'Four Boys Lost', which tells the story of a tragic accident which happened off the coast of a remote Scottish island in which only one man survived. A very timely yet reflective collection, Peace is an album about the state of the world and of the band's mind and its 11 electrifying songs are a charged reaction to a world that seems to be teetering on the edge of madness and self-destruction. "It's an aspirational title," says Levellers singer/guitarist Mark Chadwick. "We're searching for peace. I'm not a religious man, but it feels like the devil is walking the earth right now, but that doesn't mean there's no hope." Peace arrives almost eight years since the Brighton band's last album of original material, 2012's Static On The Airwaves, though the band – completed by Jon Sevink (fiddle), Charlie Heather (drums) and Matt Savage (keyboards) – have been far from idle. Over the years, the band have worn many masks; most self-made, some imposed upon them. But while their status has evolved over the decades, the basic humanity underpinning their music has remained constant. The sense of positivity that the band possess is brought to life by the album's striking artwork of a vivid phoenix painted, like all of the band's covers, by Jeremy Cunningham. Now in 2020 and 30 years since they announced themselves with 'A Weapon Called The Word', the Levellers have created their own self-sufficient world. The fire that fueled them 30 years ago has never extinguished and now with Peace, that fire burns brighter than ever. www.levellers.co.uk https://www.facebook.com/levellersofficial/ https://twitter.com/the_levellers https://www.instagram.com/the_levellers/ Share this:Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)Click to share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)Like this:Like Loading...

Chapter 7 (v.1) - What Is Wrong With Me???
Chapter 6: What Is Wrong With Me???
Jason (a.k.a Hottie)
I hurry to the girl's room as quickly as I can. I have to get there before any body sees me wondering around. The whole time I walk to this girl's room I'm scolding myself.
What the heck am I thinking!?!? I can't fall for this girl!!! It's just another girl in the business! I'm the bad guy!!! I have to keep up that role! Or else- or else- or else, let's just say that something not so good is going to happen to me.
I swing the girl's door open without even knocking. Normally, I try to at least be somewhat considerate of the all the girls' privacy but at the moment I'm kinda out of it.
I storm into the room and slam the door behind me. The brunette haired girl, who looks to be about nine years old (why are they going after such young girls?), cowers in the corner with wide, scared eyes.
"Hi," I mutter and sink into the corner on the other side of the room for her. I pull my knees up to my chest and rub my face with my hands.
Why am I falling so hard for this one girl? I've been around girls all my life. Especially pretty ones. Why do I all of the sudden feel so attracted to this one particular girl??? This one girl named Isabelle.
Bell. Pretty, pretty Bell.
What the hell am I thinking?!? I can't think like this! I can't like one of these girls! If any of the other guys ever found out that I was treating her differently, they'd kill me!
I feel eyes burning wholes in my head so I look up and the young brunette is staring at me suspiciously. I give her a weak smile. "How are you?" I ask in gloomy voice. Her eyes widen and she seems surprised that I'm being nice to her. "You don't have to answer. Just trying to start a conversation." She looks away and even lies down on the hard mattress next to me. She closes her eyes and soon I hear her snoring quietly. I'm sure that this is the first time she's gotten any sleep since she got her.
I go back to my own thoughts. I've never told any of these girls my real name. Sure, I've talk to them and made them feel a little more comfortable and if they asked me my name I'd just give them a fake name. Usually I'd just say Jake because that's close enough to my real name. But I actually told Bell my real name.
I hate my name. Jason. Jason the teenager who helps old men kidnap girls so they can rape them. Yeah, that's just great. This is exactly where I've always seen myself going in life.
Not. When I was younger I always saw myself playing varsity football and then going to college for with a sports scholarship and then be a cop or something. That is impossible now. I have never even went to kindergarten. I've always been in an environment like this one. I guess you could say that it's becoming a "family business". If I did go to school right now this would be my senior year so it's too late to get that scholarship. Even if I did somehow end up in college, there is no way I could be a police officer. It's not like they are going to hire a kid who has been helping with kidnapping since he was ten, even if I was nice to the girls and didn't want to hurt them. It makes no difference to society.
See, I may have never stepped inside a classroom, but I'm not stupid. I know what is right and what is wrong. I know what society expects and I even know what two plus two is. Okay, so maybe I know a little more math than that. I was able to figure out a lot of things on my own but by talking to so many girls and getting them to open up to me, I've learned some things from them as well.
Why am I thinking about all of this? I've given up my dreams and I've accepted the fact that I'm where I am. I know that I can never fall in love with any of these girls and they are strictly just part of the job.
But this one girl is changing everything. Suddenly, I'm thinking of things being different and I'm imagining things that are impossible. Things that could never be mine, because I'm destined for life as the bad guy. I have no other option.
Suddenly, the door to the girl's room swings open. I quickly jump up off the ground and at the same time nudge the small brunette awake so she won't be woken up by whoever is coming in the room.
I scowl as the face I hate most enters the small room. The shaved head glistens with sweat and his mustache rises as he smiles at me evilly. His big beer belly shakes as he laughs as I stare at him with angry eyes.
"Hello, Jason. You are actually doing what I told you to do for once. You're actually watching this little twerp," he says as he cups the young girls face. I glare at him and step between him and the girl like it's no big deal.
"Yeah, I am. I've got it under control so you can go back to whatever you were doing before," I say. I try to keep the annoyed tone out of my voice so I don't make him mad.
"I think that's up for to decide. You aren't allowed to tell me what to do. You are the child and I'm the adult. So just because you are so eager for me to leave, why don't you go find something to do and I'll stay here and keep this little beauty company. Maybe I'll get to know her better," he says with a smirk. I wince at his words knowing what he means by 'getting to know her better'.
But I walk out of the room and keep my head down so my eyes won't meet the terrified ones of the brunette. I just wander around the huge building and tune out the painful cries of girls. I let my thoughts cloud my mind and lead me wherever they will take me here.

By Alex Cosgrave
Pentecost Sunday should be made a worldwide day for ecumenical celebration in all churches, according to Cardinal Suenens of Belgium, a leading figure in Catholic charismatic renewal.
The annual Week of Prayer for Christian Unity has not had a strong enough impact, said the Cardinal: "Pentecost is easier to remember and plan for and should rank with Christmas and Easter as an important celebration for Christian people."
In a new 109 page document called "Ecumenism and
Charismatic Renewal: Theological and Pastoral Orientations." Cardinal Suenens said that charismatic renewal is -a very special grace for ecumenism", because it can bring all Christians together in "a common faith in the actuality and power of the Holy Spirit."
In what might be seen as the first ecumenical guidelines for charismatic prayer groups. he encourages charismatics to continue their efforts towards spiritual ecumenism but warns Catholics not to take part in groups which totally ignore denominational differences.
In particular, involvement with the Unification Church, whose members are commonly known as the Moonies, and with the Church of Scientology is "incompatible with membership of the Catholic Church" said Cardinal Suenens.
Charismatics should have a solid education in Catholic doctrine before becoming involv ed in ecumenical groups, said the Cardinal. Every faith involved in an ecumenical group should have the power of veto when particular activities would offend any denomination.
As an example the Cardinal warned of the danger of disregarding the Church's rules on intercommunion. "This is not primarily a danger of disobedience but of compromising the efforts towards visible unity by taking for granted that all our ecumenical concerns are already resolved," he said.

Real-World Experience Develops Real-World Skills
by Mark Rupert
posted on 09-22-2016
This is one article in a series on addressing the need employers have for real-world ready workers. What do real-world skills look like? How can science and math combine with creativity in the classroom? Watch for future articles on ideas to inspire the necessary creativity and innovation, while teaching and learning specific skills.
Students across the U.S. have headed back to class, but as we embark on a new school year we have to question: are we preparing kids to be real-world ready? A recent PayScale Study suggests we have more work to do. The research revealed half of hiring managers in the U.S. don't believe recent college graduates are prepared with the most important skills for the workforce. Surprisingly, employers are not citing technical skills as a gap, but rather critical thinking, problem solving, communication, collaboration and creativity.
Whatever the underlying reason, the challenge for educators, graduates, and corporations is real. And, it's going to take a joint effort to solve the skills gap. I see three ways we are making progress.
- STEM to STEAM: Adding Creativity to the Sciences. With the passage of the Every Student Succeeds Act in December 2015, STEM has officially evolved into STEAM (science, technology, engineering, math — and now art!). This addition is an acknowledgement that creativity is the key component of a well-rounded approach to thinking, learning, and problem solving. Art and design education will be critical to helping prepare students for success in technology fields. We couldn't agree more—creativity goes beyond artistic expression. Giving students the opportunity to create equips them to think critically, collaborate, and solve problems. Schools are seeing this too, and it's encouraging. This year, I visited high schools that were experimenting with bridging creativity, technology and entrepreneurship. I saw students come up with an idea, bring it to life on a 3D printer, and develop a business plan to take it to market.
- Bringing Design to the Classroom. Students are embracing the opportunity to add art and design to their studies. For instance, students at the U.C. Berkeley Innovative Design Club teach courses on design and photography. Of more than 100 student-run courses, the Introduction to Photoshop and Illustrator course is the most popular, with all available sessions this semester at full capacity. More advanced courses taught by the Innovative Design Club are also popular, including Web Design and Principles of Graphic Design. Of course this is not unique to the Bay Area — students across the country are taking part in the design-led innovation phenomenon.
- Giving Students Real-World Challenges to Solve. When I meet with teachers, they say that the best, most-inspiring curriculum involves real-world experiences — either with a non-profit or a business. This spring, we experimented with offering students at the ArtCenter College of Design in Pasadena one of our business challenges and we were simply amazed at what they were able to accomplish. We asked them to design the Creative Cloud onboarding experience for students. Together with two product managers and two designers from Adobe, the students came up with five compelling designs for different aspects of onboarding. Not only were the designs excellent, but the process of watching them think through the problems gave us a new perspective. We presented the concepts to the Vice President and General Manager of Creative Cloud Product, Marketing and Community, and she was blown away. The scope of the project has grown and it is a top initiative for the company.
Looking Forward
For us, working with students was a great way to change our perspective and to solve problems that we are implementing today. For the students, this was a chance to use the knowledge they had gained from the classroom and apply it to a business challenge. On their resume, they will have an example of a real-world business problem that they were able to solve.
This fall, we'll be working with students on more projects – gaining insight from their ideas while providing real-world experiences for them. As we head into this back to school season, I am thinking about how we can do more. The world's most creative companies are customers of Adobe's Creative Cloud. We are working on a few ideas to bring opportunities at these creative companies to our student community. In the meantime, what are you doing to spark creativity in the classroom and bridge learning with real-life experiences?

Next shop update - Friday 25th September, 7pm. Drop me an email with any requests!
Welcome to the Noodle Soup Shop!
Noodle Soup Yarns
Regular price
These five beautiful single ply minis come in five of my favourite semi-solid shades:
Charocal, Disphotic Zone, Chainmail, Death Metal and Callicarpa.
Why not try them out with this beautiful single ply sampler pack?
400m/437 yards per 100g pack.
All of my yarn is prepared and stored in a smoke and pet free environment.
Superwash wool can be machine washed on a delicates cycle at 30⁰c, but I would recommend hand washing and laying flat to dry. Do not machine wash non-superwash wool. I recommend hand washing in cool water with very little agitation and a gentle soap. Lay flat to dry.
I have done my best to accurately represent the true colour of the skeins with my pictures, but due to differences in screen settings, what you see may not be exactly the same shade as the pictures I've taken.
As with all hand dyed yarn, no two skeins will ever be identical. However, where possible I will send skeins from the same dye lot together. A little bit of colour run may happen in the first few washes, but this will be minimal.

E.g., your hero battles two evil generals - a Frenchman and a German. But there's one little problem. You know neither German, nor French, and have no clue about how these wacky foreigners are usually named. But you've got an idea! A quick search in the dark corners of your memory reveals some scarce knowledge about French and German history and culture. With local names in it! That's the answer to all your problems! Half a minute later, you've got names for your villains - ''Napoleon Dumas'' and ''Friedrich-Wilhelm Goethe''. That sounds pretty authentic, right? Right? A [[Famous-Named Foreigner]] is a character [[Captain Obvious|hailing from some foreign nation]] who, due to the authors [[Did Not Do the Research|not knowing anything about local naming conventions]] and/or [[Small Reference Pools|thinking it would make their nationality more recognizable]] and/or [[They Just Didn't Care|just being lazy]], is named after some very famous person from the respective nation's history or culture. Which most of the time sounds pretty ridiculous to the local ear, [[One Mario Limit|due to those names often being quite rare and primarily associated with those same famous persons]]. This trope, as noted earlier, is often the result of either [[Did Not Do the Research]], [[Small Reference Pools]] or [[They Just Didn't Care]]. If the authors [[They Just Didn't Care|care even less]], it often results in [[As Long as It Sounds Foreign]]. And of course, names ''do'' become popular because famous people have them -- for example, "Muhammad" is by far the most common name for Muslim boys (and in fact, is the single most common boy's name in the world). Compare [[Named After Somebody Famous]], when this is done deliberately as a reference, and not just with foreign characters. {{examples}} == Albanian == * In [[The Simpsons]] episode "The Crepes of Wrath", the Albanian exchange student/spy living with the Simpsons in exchange for Bart is named [[wikipedia:Adil %C3%87ar%C3%A7ani|Adil]] [[wikipedia:Enver Hoxha|Hoxha]]. == Australian (Indigeneous) == * ''[[Global Frequency]]'': Danny [[wikipedia:David Gulpilil|Gulpilil]] == Bulgarian == * Several members of the Bulgarian Quidditch team in ''[[Harry Potter]]'' bear the names of notable historical figures; Zograf is a 19th-century painter, Levski a revolutionary hero. Krum was a king who killed the Byzantine emperor Nikephoros, and is also famous for being the first to introduce written laws. "Krum" is particularly unlikely as a surname, though it has some popularity as a given name. ** Krum''ov'' may be more plausible. It's still a stretch but it's more plausible for a last name. ''Levski'' particularly stands out, though, first of all, because it is not at all common, and even then, it was a ''nickname''. Collecting so many weird names in the team crosses the line of [[Acceptable Breaks From Reality]] breaks the [[Willing Suspension of Disbelief]]. == Chinese == * Mao (as in Mao Tse-Tung) is fairly common, especially in anime. Note that Mao could be written several different ways in Chinese, and is a common enough surname. ** ''[[Code Geass]]'' ** ''[[Darker Than Black]]'': Justified in that Mao literally means "cat" and the character in question is a [[Talking Animal|guy trapped in a cat body]] -- and it's a code name, not his real name. ** ''[[Full Metal Panic]]'' == Czech == * Miss Wenceslas in ''[[Sherlock]]'', presumably named for Wenceslaus of Bohemia. Unfortunately for the makers, the Czech version of the name is Václav, which is not used as a family name, and even if it were, would be lacking the "-ová" ending all female surnames that have a noun root. * In the ''[[Night Watch]]'' series of novels, there is Czech vampire Vítězslav Hrubín. While "Vítězslav" is common name, this combination is obviously merging names of two famous Czech poets, Vítězslav Nezval and František Hrubín. * At one point in ''[[Wet]]'', Rubi is put in contact with a Czech woman named [[wikipedia:Franz Kafka|Kafka]] [[wikipedia:Anton%C3%ADn Dvo%C5%99%C3%A1k|Dvorak]]. == Finnish == * Early in the movie ''[[Swordfish]]'', a Finnish hacker is arrested. His first name, Axl, is not a commonly used Finnish name, but his last name is Torvalds - just like a certain other [[wikipedia:Linus Torvalds|Finnish hacker]]. == French == * ''[[St Trinian's]]'' school, in the 2007 film, has a French teacher called Miss [[wikipedia:Maupassant|Maupassant]], though this is probably an intentional joke. * Invisible Kid II from the [[Legion of Super-Heroes (Comic Book)|Legion of Super-Heroes]] was named [[wikipedia:Jacques Foccart|Jacques Foccart]]. For added irony appeal, he was also black. * ''[[The X-Files]]'': Chester [[wikipedia:Napoleon I of France|Bonaparte]] (''Fresh Bones'' episode) * ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX]]'' has a teacher named Jean-Louis [[wikipedia:Napoleon Bonaparte|Napoleon]] (Bonaparte in the English dub). * ''[[Inglourious Basterds]]'': The Dreyfus family shares its name with [[wikipedia:Alfred Dreyfus|the most famous French Jew]] in history (not to mention Alfred's relative, [[Julia Louis-Dreyfus]].) ** Also Inspector Dreyfus of the ''Pink Panther'' films. The name itself however is originally Yiddish, a language related to German. ** In fairness, Tarantino was just dropping a reference to Julie Dreyfus. * George de Sand from ''[[Mobile Fighter G Gundam]]''. [[wikipedia:George Sand|George Sand]] was the pen name of a ''woman''. ** And meant to sound ''English'' -- the French form of "George" is ''Georges'' and the French word for "sand" is ''sable''. * ''[[Captain Tsubasa]]'': The two main players of the French team are named [[wikipedia:Le Cid|El Sid]] Pierre, and Louis [[wikipedia:Napoleon I of France|Napoléon]]. == German == * ''[[Code Geass]]'': ** [[wikipedia:Otto von Bismarck|Bismarck]] [[wikipedia:Piano Sonata No. 21 (Beethoven)|Waldstein]]. *** Or perhaps [[wikipedia:Albrecht von Wallenstein|this one]], though the two were related. ** Jeremiah [[wikipedia:Klement Gottwald|Gottwald]]. *** Or quite possibly [http://www.gottwald.com this]. ** Nina [[wikipedia:Einstein|Einstein]] (this could be a reference to her invention of the atomic bomb, a project to which Albert contributed) * ''[[Arsenic and Old Lace]]'' has a [[Back-Alley Doctor|Doctor]] [[wikipedia:Einstein|Einstein]]. Somewhat [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshaded]] in that Elaine expresses obvious surprise at hearing his name. The play goes even further when Jonathan clears it up for her by revealing that his first name is Herman, not Albert. ** Note that there was another [[wikipedia:Alfred Einstein|Dr. Einstein]] in [[Real Life]]. * ''[[Gunbuster]]'' has mostly Japanese characters, named after people on the staff, and one foreign character (Toren Smith) named after a well-known manga translator. When it came to the female German pilot, though, they fell headlong into this trap, ending up with [[All Psychology Is Freudian|Jung Freud]], which is... not exactly a name anyone is likely to have. * Len Wein has gone on record that he came up with Nightcrawler's civilian name in 1975 by combining the first name of Kurt Waldheim (Austria, then secretary-general of the United Nations) with the family name of [[Richard Wagner]]. Kurt Wagner would hardly raise as much as an eyebrow with a native speaker, though. * ''[[Final Fantasy VII]]'' has a fat villain named Heidegger, with an annoying laugh. He is in no way to be confused with either the Dr. Heidegger in Nathaniel Hawthorne's short story or the eponymous German philosopher, author of "Being and Time," an inquiry into the nature and meaning of existence. == German and Hungarian == * In ''Bloodrayne'' you have to kill Dr. [[wikipedia:Elizabeth Bathory|Bathory]] [[wikipedia:Josef Mengele|Mengele]]. == German and Russian == * ''[[Tintin/Recap/The Castafiore Emerald|The Castafiore Emerald]]'' has Igor Wagner, whose name is quite fitting for an accompanist to an operatic prima donna. Quite probably inspired by [[Igor Stravinsky]] as well as [[Richard Wagner]]. == Greek == * On one episode of ''[[American Dad]]'', a Greek butcher named ''Hercules'' is introduced. At only one point is the correlation between his name and the mythological hero pointed out, in the form of a pun in his store signage ("Witness the 7 ''Meats'' of Hercules!") Otherwise, the name is treated as perfectly normal name. This is particularly noticeable because Hercules is the ''Roman'' name for the Greek hero Herakles, and a Greek having the former name ahead of the latter, if either, is quite odd. * In [[Eyeshield 21]], Panther's all-American, [[Black Best Friend|white best friend]] is named Homer. Not exactly a common name in the States due to who its associated with... == Italian == * [[Ultimate Marvel]] Captain Italy: Umberto [[wikipedia:Stefano Landi|Landi]] ** Umberto was the name of an Italian king and of polar explorer Umberto Nobile. * The Italian Vellian Crowler in the Japanese version of ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX]]'' was named [[wikipedia:Chronos|Chronos]] [[wikipedia:Lorenzo de Medici|de Medici]]. * In ''Babylon 5'', one of the characters is Michael [[wikipedia:Giuseppe Garibaldi|Garibaldi]], despite Garibaldi being an uncommon surname. To reduce the perceived oddity of this choice, in the Italian dubbed version the name becomes Gariboldi. * There's also the Garibaldi Temple in [[Castlevania: Curse of Darkness]]. Along with other oddities such as a town named ''Cordova'' in the middle of Valachian forests. == Indian Languages == * Hadji Singh from the ''[[Jonny Quest]]'' series. Hadji is an obviously Muslim title, and Singh is obviously Hindu or Sikh. Also, the chances of a guy named Hadji Singh being the prince of Calcutta are about the same as a guy called Kaiser Wilhelm being the king of England or France. ** Actually worse. * Indians in fiction named [[wikipedia:Mahatma|"Mahatma"]]. It's not a first name, it's a kind of honorific. Probably, the cause of this is [[wikipedia:Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi|Gandhi]]. * In the late 1980s sitcom [[wikipedia:Head of the Class|"Head of the Class"]], an Indian-American character is named "Jawaharlal Choudhury." Not only do the given name and the family name unlikely to be paired in a real Indian person because they come from two different ethnicities, but also "Jawaharlal" is obviously taken from the name of India's first prime minister, Jawaharlal Nehru. Also, naming fashions change from generation to generation in India; thus, to an Indian, someone named Jawaharlal should have been born in the late 19th century, not someone who is a teenager in 1986. * [http://ignisart.com/camdenhouse/canon/sign-12.htm Mahomet Singh] in the Sherlock Holmes novel ''The Sign of The Four''. The Penguin Books annotation calls this a solecism, and blandly remarks that "the two names would not be found together." This annotation should be accompanied by bells, whistles, flashing lights, and a [[wikipedia:Maroon chr(28)rocketchr(29)|maroon.]] Especially a maroon. == Indonesian == * Subverted in the [[Strangers with Candy]] [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0369994/ movie], when Jerri's new friend introduces himself as "Megawatti Sukarnoputri. Not ''that'' [[wikipedia:Megawati Sukarnoputri|Megawati Sukarnoputri]]." == Hebrew == * Where else but [[Demi Moore]]'s ''Striptease'', where a stripper "from Israel" is introduced as ''[[wikipedia:Ariel Sharon|Ariel Sharon]]''? Admittedly though, the name is gender-neutral (although in Hebrew it is strictly male), and in this case likely a stage name. * In the Gabriel Allon novels involving an Israeli spy/assassin, his superior is named "Ari Shamron" which is one letter and an abbreviation away from Ariel Sharon. == Japanese == * In the Thomas Harris novel ''Hannibal Rising'', Hannibal Lecter has a Japanese aunt-by-marriage named Lady Murasaki Shikibu. The historic Murasaki Shikibu is best known as the author of ''The Tale of Genji'', one of the world's earliest novels as well as one of the most famous and significant works of Japanese literature. The character in the book is said to be a descendant of the historic author, but this doesn't make the name much more plausible because "Murasaki Shikibu" was the author's pen name. The author's real personal name is unknown, but she was a member of the Fujiwara clan. "Shikibu" isn't even an actual Japanese family name, it was a reference to the court position held by the historic author's father. * Pretty much every 'foreign' character in WWF at least through the Attitude Era, what with Mr. [[wikipedia:Mount Fuji|Fuji]], that sort of thing. To be fair, Mr. Fuji's real name is Harry Fujiwara. ** Averted with Kenzo Suzuki<ref>that doesn't count, it's his actual name</ref>, who originally was going to be called Hirohito and come in as if he was related the the Emperor of Japan. * The protagonist of Shaena Lambert's novel ''Radiance'' is called Keiko Kitigawa, just one letter different from the name of actress [[wikipedia:Keiko Kitagawa|Keiko Kitagawa]]. Incidentally, "ti" is not a Japanese phoneme and would never show up in any real Japanese name, though it is an entirely legal rendering of a 「ち」 syllable in the official Kunrei romanisation system. (The better known Hepburn system renders it as "chi".) * Clarence [[Yojimbo]] in ''Alan Mendelsohn, the Boy from Mars'' by [[Daniel Pinkwater]]. Subverted as he's not actually Japanese but Venusian. == Mongolian == * ''[[World Heroes]]'': [[wikipedia:Genghis Khan|G.Karn]], who is [[They Just Didn't Care|Genghis Khan's personal bodyguard]]. * One of the [[Indiana Jones]] novels has two Mongolian characters named ''[[wikipedia:Jamukha|Jamukka]]'' and ''[[wikipedia:Borte|Bortay]]''. == Norse == * ''[[World Heroes]]'': [[wikipedia:Erik the Red|Erick]], [[Justified Trope|justifiable]] in that Erik is still a very common Norse name. * Celty [[wikipedia:Snorri Sturluson|Sturluson]] of ''[[Durarara]]'', who came from Ireland and now lives in Japan, but ended up with a Scandinavian name along the way. Kind of runs into problems because Sturluson is a patronymic, not a last name. == Norwegian == * ''X-Files'', in the episode set in Norway, introduces the Norwegian fisherman... Trondheim (also the name of one of Norway's biggest and most important cities, and a former capital). While naming kids after cities or places is not unusual in the States, it is not a part of Norwegian naming conventions at all, neither as given names or surnames. On the other hand, Trondheim is stablished as having been born in Pensacola, which is in Florida... == Pakistani == * The Pakistani boy who comes to live with the American family in Aliens in America is named Raja Musharraf. == Polish == * ''[[Blackhawk]]'' [[wikipedia:Janos Prohaska|Janos Prohaska]]. [[As Long as It Sounds Foreign|Note that Blackhawk is Polish, the RealLife Janos Prohaska was Hungarian, the surname is Czech (Slovakia was part of Hungary until 1918), and the first name isn't Polish either (that would be Janusz)]]. ** Plus a Polish name ending with -ska would be feminine. * The creators of the strategy video game ''Combat Mission: Beyond Overlord'' decided to be nice enough to give Polish soldiers Polish names (every individual in the game had an individual name). They gave them ones they could find in the Internet quickly, though. So you could commandeer [[wikipedia:Marian Krzaklewski|Marian Krzaklewski]], [[wikipedia:Jerzy Buzek|Jerzy Buzek]], [[wikipedia:Aleksander Kwasniewski|Aleksander Kwasniewski]]. It could be quite fun for some people to send them to their death, as the first two were not so popular at the time. Good enough that they didn't use [[wikipedia:Karol Wojtyla|Karol Wojtyla]]. * In ''[[Medieval]]: Total War'' (I and II) the characters actually have names you could find in a history book, only sometimes assigned to wrong gender or forming strange combinations (like "Jagiellon Jagiello" a century before the reign of [[wikipedia:Jogaila|the dynasty founder]]). The last installment, Empire, reportedly uses the name of somewhat more obscure Polish politicians (but still fun to see them time-slipped). * The random name generator in ''[[Europa Universalis]] III'' will occasionally churn out a name that belonged to a famous historical figure, not least because the Polish surnames in the generator's data file ''all'' belonged to figures of note in Renaissance Poland. == Romanian == * The [[Anti Christ]] from the [[Left Behind]] series is named [[wikipedia:Nicolae Ceaucescu|Nicolae]] [[wikipedia:Carpathian Mountains|Carpathia]]. To be absolutely fair, his other name is [[Embarrassing Middle Name|"Jetty" (?!?!)]] and this is hardly the only offensive moment in these novels. * Perhaps best used in ''[[Work Time Fun]]'' in the [[Rock-Paper-Scissors]] World Tournament mini-game. The Romanian character in the world league championships is named "Mayor Dracula." In fact, just about every opponent in that minigame falls under this trope, including "Victoria Potter" from England and "George Spielberg" from America. == Russian == * ''[[James Bond]]'': ** General [[wikipedia:Nikolai Gogol|Gogol]]. ** General [[wikipedia:Aleksandr Pushkin|Pushkin]]. ** General [[wikipedia:Orlov|Orlov]]. ** Valentin [[wikipedia:Vasily Zhukovsky|Zukovsky]]. ** [[wikipedia:Grand Duchess Tatiana Nikolaevna of Russia|Tatiana Romanova]]. This one, at least, was [[lampshaded]]/[[Justified Trope|justified]] in the original novel. The Soviets viewed her with suspicion because of her surname, even though she wasn't actually related to the ex-royal family (a bit of [[Did Not Do the Research]], since "Romanov" is a pretty common surname and so the Soviets would have had no reason to suspect anyone solely because of their surname). * ''Chilly Beach'' also had a Russian hockey player named Gogol. * ''[[Command and Conquer|RedAlert]]'': ** Major Vladimir [[wikipedia:Alexey Kosygin|Kosygin]]. ** Yuri & Daniel [[wikipedia:Vyacheslav Molotov|Molotov]]. * [[Marvel Comics]]: ** Natasha [[wikipedia:House of Romanov|Romanova]]. ** Piotr, Illyana, Mikhail [[wikipedia:Grigori Rasputin|Rasputin]]. A recent recton reveals that Colossus and family ''are'' in fact descended from the "Mad Monk". *** As far as his first name goes, Piotr is most likely named after Peter the Great. *** Also lampshaded by Hank McCoy when Piotr [[Death Is Cheap|came back from the dead;]] "Boy's named Rasputin. [[Rasputinian Death|Should have known he wouldn't be that easy to kill.]]" *** Also Lampshaded in a [[What If]] where Natasha, Piotr and Illyana are part of a Stalinist [[Fantastic Four]]; Stalin claims to tell a lot about people by their names, and to be rather suspicious of these ones. "My own name means - " taps Colossus " - Man of Steel." ** Boris [[wikipedia:Ivan Turgenev|Turgenev]] (Crimson Dynamo II). ** [[wikipedia:Alexander Nevsky|Alex Nevsky]] (Crimson Dynamo III). ** Dmitri [[wikipedia:Nikolai Bukharin|Bukharin]] (Crimson Dynamo V). ** Tania [[wikipedia:Vissarion Belinsky|Belinsky]] (Red Guardian, Starlight). * ''[[Star Trek: The Original Series|Star Trek the Original Series]]'': Pavel [[wikipedia:Anton Chekhov|Chekov]]. * ''[[Stargate SG-1]]'': Colonel [[wikipedia:Pavel Chekov|Chekov]]. * ''[[Bubblegum Crisis]]'': ** Nene [[wikipedia:House of Romanov|Romanova]]. Note that Romanov(a) is a common Russian surname, and most Romanovs in real life has absolutely no connection to the royal dynasty. On the other hand, Nene [[As Long as It Sounds Foreign|isn't a proper Russian name]], but [[wikipedia:Nene chr(28)personchr(29)|an uncommon Japanese name]]. * ''[[Troper Works/Covert-81|Covert-81]]'': ** Katya [[wikipedia:Nikolai Gerasimovich Kuznetsov|Kuznetsova]] (though Kuznetsova is a pretty common Russian name, [[Silent Hunter|Word Of God]] says Katya is really named after the famous Admiral) ** Pyotr [[wikipedia:Nikolai Bulganin|Bulganin]]. * ''[[World Heroes]]'': [[wikipedia:Grigori Rasputin|Rasputin]]. Note that this character is ''not'' the [[Real Life]] Grigoriy Rasputin, as some may think. According to [[The Other Wiki]], the ''World Heroes'' Rasputin is "a philosopher of XIII century Russia, was also a known alchemist and sorcerer". * ''[[Wild CATS]]'': Adrianna [[wikipedia:Valentina Tereshkova|Tereshkova]] (The Void). * ''Fiends of the Eastern Front'': Grigori [[wikipedia:Sergei Eisenstein|Eisenstein]]. Eisenstein is actually ''[[Yiddish as a Second Language|Jewish]]'' name, but still... * The ship that took [[Warhammer 40000|Luna Volves and Death Guard]] loyalist captains [[Horus Heresy|Iacton Qruze and Nathaniel Garro]] to Terra is also named after the famous filmmaker -- or, rather, a pale shadow of his memory. * Another 40K reference is Lord Inquisitor [http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Karamazov Fyodor] [[wikipedia:The Brothers Karamazov|Karamazov]], [[Kill It with Fire|Pyrophant]] [[Knight Templar|Judge]] of Salem Proctor. * [[wikipedia:Leonid Brezhnev|Simon Brezhnev]] of [[Durarara]]. * There's a fairly important character named [[wikipedia:Vladimir Mayakovsky|Mayakovsky]] in [[The Magicians]]. Especially irritating because the characters in the book are supposed to be highly educated and you'd figure one of them would have noticed that. * ''Eye of the Red Tsar'' also features a Mayakovsky, as well as a [[wikipedia:Sergey Kirov|Kirov]], a [[wikipedia:Aleksandr Kolchak|Kolchak]], and a [[wikipedia:Peter Kropotkin|Kropotkin]]. * ''Airwolf'' featured a General [[wikipedia:Sergey Kirov|Kirov]] as well * Hetalia's Ivan [[wikipedia:Emil Braginsky|Braginsky]] aka Russia. == Serbian == * Draza, one of Lazarevic's lieutenants in ''[[Uncharted]] 2: Among Thieves'' was almost certainly named after Drazha Mihailovic, the leader of the Chetnik "[[The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything|resistance]]" movement during [[World War Two]]. == Spanish == * [[Soul Series]]: ** [[wikipedia:Miguel de Cervantes|Cervantes]] [[wikipedia:Juan Ponce de Leon|de Leon]]. * [[Street Fighter]]: ** <s>Vega, the cage-fighting Spaniard.</s> What? [[wikipedia:Lope de Vega|What do you mean]] [[Woolseyism|it's a coincidence?!]] * ''[[Dragon Quest]] 4'': ** [[wikipedia:Francisco Pizarro|Pisarro]]. * ''[[Paper Mario the Thousand Year Door]]'': ** The pirate [[wikipedia:Hernan Cortes|Cortez]]. * [[Marvel Comics]]: ** Fabian [[wikipedia:Hernan Cortes|Cortez]]. * ''[[Warhammer 40000]]'': ** Captain [[wikipedia:Hernan Cortes|Cortez]] of the the Crimson Fists, though Cortez is a rather common Spanish surname. ** Also, Lord Inquisitor [[wikipedia:Tomas de Torquemada|Torquemada]] [[wikipedia:Hernan Cortes|Coteaz]], High Protector of the Formosa Sector. * ''[[Sealab 2021]]'': ** Marco's full name is Marco [[wikipedia:El Cid|Rodrigo Diaz de Vivar]] [[wikipedia:Gabriel Garcia Marquez|Gabriel Garcia Marquez]]. Note that this is [[As Long as It Sounds Foreign|a horrible mangling of actual Spanish naming practices]], but then, [[Rule of Funny]]. * ''[[Sunset Riders]]'': ** [[wikipedia:El Greco|El Greco]], though the character appears to be Mexican. (Grecco-Mexican?) == Tibetan == * The ''[[Doctor Who]]'' serial ''The Abominable Snowmen'', which was set in a Tibetan monastery, had characters with the names of prominent historical figures in Tibetan Buddhism. * As did ''[[Discworld/Thief of Time|Thief of Time]]'', set in a [[Fantasy Counterpart Culture]] version. ** There's also "[[wikipedia:Lobsang Rampa|Lobsang]] [[Honest John's Dealership|Dibbler]]" in ''[[Discworld/Witches Abroad|Witches Abroad]]''. Since this is an example of a conman using the same name as a probable conman, it could be described as ''authentically'' inauthentic. * Tenzin, the Tibetan villager that helps Nate in ''[[Uncharted]] 2: Among Thieves'', was most likely named after Tenzin Gyatso, the religious name of the 14th Dalai Lama. == Turkish == * ''[[Pearls Before Swine]]'' once used Ataturk as a name for a Turkish diplomat. It's uncertain whether the author realized that this was the nickname of Turkey's founder. == Korean == * [[X-Men]] ** The real name of the Marauders mutant Scrambler is Kim Il Sung, after the communist revolutionary leader. == Other / Multiple == * Jerry Jenkins has admitted to consistently using a variant of this to name foreign characters: first name of a famous foreigner, then a notable location in their country as a last name. When this fails, it ''really'' fails (e.g. [[Left Behind|Nicolae Carpathia]].) * Apparently Jerry Jenkins and Ann M. Martin took the same creative writing class.

(Yes, invented by some guy named "Wronski". Jozef Hoene-Wronski, in fact.) It's pronounced "Vronsky" as well. * According to [[Word of God]], ''[[Survival of the Fittest]]'' character Clio Gabriella was originally going to be named Ava Gardner.

Happy Sunday! A special shout out to all the Father's out there in the officiating community and outside of it as well! I know for me, I've always had the pleasure of my son following me around to see me get yelled at, or editing a podcast, or publishing another post a on the website. My daughter up next.
"A father doesn't tell you that he loves you, he shows you."
– Dimitri the Stoneheart
There's many fantastic father's I know in the officiating community, and I want to show my deepest gratitude and sincere appreciation to each and everyone of you that holds it down for their kid.
Happy Father's Day!

Duchess Catherine accompanied her younger brother James Middleton to therapy.
The 37-year-old royal is a passionate advocate for mental health charities and when her sibling James, 32, was struggling with depression, Catherine and the Middleton family joined him at his cognitive behavioural therapy sessions in order to help him.
When asked if all of his family went with him, even Catherine, James told The Daily Telegraph newspaper: "All of them. Not necessarily at the same time, but either individually and [sometimes] together. And that was so important because that helped them understand me and how my mind was working. And I think the way the therapy helped me was that I didn't need my family to say, 'What can we do?' The only thing they could do was just come to some of the therapy sessions to start to understand."
James – who recently got engaged to Alizee Thevenet after a year of dating – admitted it was originally difficult to open up to his family, including parents Carole and Michael and sisters Pippa and Catherine, about his mental health.
He explained: "I couldn't do anything. I couldn't sleep, I couldn't read a book, I couldn't watch a film, I couldn't eat. I was just like, 'What am I meant to do?' I was better off in my own company, so I didn't have the additional worry of someone thinking, 'What's wrong with him?' I removed myself from everything.'
'The fact is, no matter what experience someone has, your family members are the hardest people [to talk to]… You also have a very different way of interacting with your family than you do with your friends. And actually, I behave like Kevin from 'Kevin & Perry'. I'm the youngest child, so I think that's normal. And they are so tuned into you that they can see what other people can't.
"My mother will see how much I'm eating and know that there's something wrong. She'll see the way that I look at her and know there's something wrong. It's the same with all my family. We are very close. And I think that can be… a challenge. And I do remember feeling that I almost had to say to them, 'I'll be back, but this is a process and it's going to take time for me to recover.'"
James also revealed that he had suicidal thoughts during his battle with depression, although he never took any action.
When asked at a psychiatric hospital if he was having suicidal thoughts, James said: "I remember thinking, 'I might have to answer this one truthfully, because I want them to help me.' So I said, 'Well, actually, yes, but I don't think I'll ever action it.' In my report it said I had suicidal thoughts but wasn't a threat to myself.'
"I couldn't bear to do that to my family or dogs, but it was that moment of like… My mind was going down that route. Because I thought 'you need a way out'. So having Ella [one of his dogs] with me that entire time… I wouldn't say she saved my life because we never got as far as that. But actually, what I have learnt since having been exposed a bit more to this [mental health] conversation is that suicide is often the word you feel you can't go anywhere near, but to think about it is quite common, and talking about that should not be a taboo."
And despite his struggles, James revealed he is happy he went through a battle with his mental health because it has made him grateful for everything in his life.
He said: "Despite all of it, I'm very pleased that I went through it, because of who I am on the other side… well, it's like a rebirth. I can't remember feeling like it [ever]. This is who I am now. I am conscious that I have not got rid of it [the depression], it's still there. But I'm on top of it, and I'm aware that if I don't work hard at maintaining control of it, then it has the ability to come back."
