Ryan Air Services

Ryan Air, Inc., is an American airline that serves over 70 villages in Bush Alaska out of hubs in Anchorage, Aniak, Bethel, Emmonak, Kotzebue, Nome, St. Mary's, and Unalakleet. Offering primarily cargo services, Ryan Air also operates scheduled passenger service out of Aniak, and passenger or cargo charters throughout Alaska.
Ryan Air was established in 1953 as Unalakleet Air Taxi by Wilfred Ryan Sr. as a charter airline. In the 1960s, the company began handling USPS mail delivery and transportation of schoolteachers for the Bureau of Indian Affairs between communities along the lower Yukon River. In 1977, Wilfred P. Ryan Jr. took over the company after his father died of cancer.
In 1979, the company expanded service beyond the Norton Sound and changed their name to Ryan Air. With a new fleet of Beech 1900s and Beech 99s, Ryan Air grew to the largest commuter carrier in Alaska by 1987, serving 85 cities and villages with a fleet of 28 planes. However, a series of 12 accidents, culminating in a fatal crash of flight 103 on 23 November 1987 that killed 18 of the 21 people on board, led the FAA to shut down the airline in January 1988.
In the 1990s, Ryan Air converted to a cargo-only airline and changed their name to Arctic Transportation Services (ATS), adding CASA 212 cargo planes to their fleet. They changed their name back to Ryan Air in 2010.
In 2011, Ryan Air began passenger charters out of Anchorage, using a newly acquired Pilatus PC-12.
In 2014, Ryan Air resumed regularly scheduled passenger services out of Aniak, AK using their Cessna 207 aircraft.
In 2015 Ryan Air acquired a fifth CASA 212.
In 2017 Ryan Air adds 2 SAAB 340s, based in Anchorage, to their fleet.
In 2019 Lee Ryan is appointed as President of Ryan Air, Inc.
In December 2022 Ryan Air was acquired by Saltchuk.
In June 2024 Ryan Air acquired a fourth Cessna 208 EX
Ryan Air Services maintains the following scheduled passenger routes (as of January 2021):
From/to Aniak
From/to Bethel
From/to Anchorage
As of February 2017, the Ryan Air Services fleet consists of 20 aircraft, including:
Ryan air has operated the following types of aircraft in the past:
East-West Airlines (India)

East-West Airlines was a private airline company based in Kerala,India that operated during the 1990's on trunk linkage airports across India.
In 1990-91 the entry of private airlines began, after the de-regulation of the Indian Civil Aviation sector. Private airlines were given permission to operate charter and non-scheduled services under the ‘Air Taxi’ Scheme. East West Airlines, head-quartered in Trivandrum was the first national level private airline in India to operate after almost 37 years.
East West Airlines was promoted by Thakiyudeen Abdul Wahid, a native from Varkala Trivandrum district. The airline began operations in early 1992 when the Indian Government reformed the industry by its "open skies policy" that gave rise to numerous private air charter operators that serviced India. The airline established offices in Trivandrum in 1995, New Delhi, Madras (now named Chennai) and Mumbai.
It started, as per government stipulations, with three aircraft, all Boeing 737-200s. In 1992, to counter the impact of a crippling Indian Airlines pilot strike, the then-Civil Aviation minister, Madhavrao Scindia asked the airline to bring in more aircraft. East West went on to acquire four more, taking its count to seven Boeing 737s.
The Indian Government granted scheduled domestic airline status to nine private air charter operators, including East West, in 1994.
On 13 November 1995 the company's managing director Thakiyudeen Wahid was shot dead near his Mumbai office. The airline owed 3.3 million dollars to PLM Equipment - an American company from which it had leased three Boeings. PLM Equipment first appealed to the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) to deregister the aircraft and then went to court. The Delhi high court ordered East West to pay up or return the aircraft. The three aircraft were then grounded.
In May 1996 the airline sought and was given DGCA permission to stop flying trunk routes due to a shortage of aircraft. By June 1996 it had decided to fly only from Mumbai to non-trunk destinations such as Calicut, Trivandrum and Cochin. Finally, on 8 August 1996, East West Airlines ceased all operations.
East West operated a total fleet of eleven aircraft, comprising eight leased Boeing 737-200s and three Fokker F27s. After the airline shut down operations, the Boeings were returned to their lessors; while two Fokkers were stored at Mumbai Airport until 2006, when they were auctioned off by AAI to recover some of the fees it was owed by way of parking and landing charges.
On 1 July 1995, an East West Airlines Fokker F27, registered VT-EWE, was engaged in a touch-and-go landing training exercise at Vadodara Airport when the aircraft's left main landing gear failed on touchdown. The aircraft continued moving forward on its belly and skid to a halt on the runway. There was no fire and no injury to persons on board the aircraft. Poor maintenance was cited as a contributory factor in the accident. The aircraft was written off.
Horse culture

A horse culture is a tribal group or community whose day-to-day life revolves around the herding and breeding of horses. Beginning with the domestication of the horse on the steppes of Eurasia, the horse transformed each society that adopted its use. Notable examples are the Mongols of Mongolia, the Scythian and Turkic nomads of Central Asia, the Plains Indians, the Guaycuru peoples of the Gran Chaco, and the Mapuche and Tehuelche of Patagonia after horses were imported from Europe, particularly from Spain, during the 16th century.
History offers many examples of horse cultures, such as the Huns and other peoples in Europe and Asia. Horse cultures tend to place a great deal of importance on horses and by their very nature are nomadic and usually hunter-gatherer or nomadic pastoralist societies. For example, the arrival of the horse in the Americas altered the cultures of the Native Americans in the Great Plains, the Gran Chaco and Patagonia. The horse increased mobility; the ability of the horse to cover a lot of ground in a very short period of time allowed native people to easily move from place to place, bringing on a nomadic shift in their culture, with an impact on transportation, trade, hunting and warfare.
However, there were also disadvantages to adopting horse culture, such as the increased responsibility of caring for the horses and keeping them healthy. Social structures of the community also had to shift to accommodate the physical space for horses to graze and feed easily.

Aster Aweke

Aster Aweke [ʔəsɨteɾɨ ʔəwək'ə] (Amharic: አስቴር አወቀ; born 1959) is an Ethiopian singer-songwriter. Aster's voice has attracted broader public popularity, especially tracing back in 1990s singles and her single "Abebayehosh" in Ethiopian New Year. She is best known for her 1999 album Hagere and her 2006 album Fikir. She moved to the United States in 1981, and she returned to Ethiopia in 1997.
Aster Aweke was born in Gondar in 1959. She moved to Addis Ababa as a child with her father, who was senior civil servant in the imperial government of Haile Selassie. Aster hails from the Gurage ethnic group.
In a 1990 interview with Amy Duncan of The Christian Science Monitor, Aster discussed how her parents disproved of her musical ambition: My family opposed me, but I just kept going and going... That's my life. I tried everything, but music makes me so happy."
Aster enjoyed listening to Ethiopian musicians like Tilahun Gessesse and Bizunesh Bekele, as well as American musicians like Donna Summer and Aretha Franklin. When she was thirteen years-old, she decided to join Hager Fikir Theatre and auditioned by singing Bizunesh's song to join the theater as a dancer and vocalist.
In her teen years, she performed through clubs at Addis Ababa with famous bands including Shebelle Band, Roha Band, Ibex Band and Hotel D'Afrique Band. Her style gradually influenced by Bizunesh Bekele and performed songs by Donna Summer and Aretha Franklin. She began as a solo career in 1977 through the release of her debut album, and followed with three more albums within the year.
In 1981, she moved to the United States. She temporarily settled in the San Francisco Bay Area of California and then within two years moved to Washington, D.C. She briefly attended Northern Virginia Community College, specializing in computer science, as well as learning formal musical education, which she took a distaste towards. During her time in the D.C. metropolitan area, she performed in restaurants and clubs. During her time in Washington, Aster released her U.S. major label debut Aster. Aster was released by Columbia Records in 1990 after a 1989 release by British independent label Triple Earth.
In 1997, after more than 15 years abroad, Aster returned to Ethiopia, where she was warmly welcomed by thousands of fans awaiting her at Addis Ababa airport.
Aster Aweke owned and operated a cafeteria in Addis Ababa called Kabu, which was named after her song "Kabu". The cafeteria ceased operations in 2015. On 3 January 2023, Aster released Soba. The album comprises a collabrative work of other artists.
Atlas (statue)

40°45′32.12″N 73°58′37.84″W﻿ / ﻿40.7589222°N 73.9771778°W﻿ / 40.7589222; -73.9771778
Atlas is a bronze statue in Rockefeller Center, within the International Building's courtyard, in Midtown Manhattan in New York City. It is across Fifth Avenue from St. Patrick's Cathedral. The sculpture depicts the ancient Greek Titan Atlas holding the heavens on his shoulders.
Atlas was created by the sculptor Lee Lawrie with the help of Rene Paul Chambellan and was installed in 1937. Atlas was cast at the Roman Bronze Works, a subsidiary of the General Bronze Corporation in Corona, Queens. The Roman Bronze Works had long been a sub-contractor to Louis C. Tiffany's Tiffany Studios which was then bought out by the General Bronze Corporation in 1928. Under the ownership of General Bronze, the Roman Bronze Works produced some of its finest bronze artwork from sculptors like Paul Manship, Rene Chambellan, and Lawrie.
The sculpture is in the Art Deco style of Rockefeller Center. The figure of Atlas in the sculpture is 15 feet (4.6 m) tall, while the entire statue is 45 feet (14 m) tall. It weighs 14,000 pounds (6,400 kg), and is the largest sculpture at Rockefeller Center.
Atlas is depicted carrying the celestial vault on his shoulders. The north–south axis of the armillary sphere on his shoulders points towards the North Star's position relative to New York City. The statue stands on one muscular leg atop a small stone pedestal, whose corner faces Fifth Avenue.
The piece has since been appropriated as a symbol of the Objectivist movement and has been associated with Ayn Rand's novel Atlas Shrugged (1957).
It has been featured in almost every episode of the television series 30 Rock, appearing in numerous establishing shots depicting the 30 Rockefeller Plaza building, where the series is set.
Ridley Scott has cited the sculpture as the aesthetic inspiration for the character "Mother," on HBO Max's Raised by Wolves.
Percarbonato de sodio

Percarbonato de sodio es una sustancia química con fórmula Na2H3CO6. Es un aducto del carbonato de sodio ("ceniza de soda" o "detergente") y peróxido de hidrógeno (que es un perhidrato) cuya fórmula se escribe más correctamente como 2 Na2CO3 · 3 H2O2. Es un sólido incoloro, cristalino, higroscópico y soluble en agua.​ A veces se abrevia como SPC (en inglés). Contiene 32.5% en peso de peróxido de hidrógeno.
El producto se usa en algunos blanqueadores ecológicos y otros productos de limpieza, y como fuente de laboratorio de peróxido de hidrógeno anhidro.
El percarbonato de sodio se preparó por primera vez en 1899 por el químico del imperio ruso Sebastian Moiseevich Tanatar (en ruso: Севастьян Моисеевич Танатар) (7 de octubre de 1849, Odesa - 30 de noviembre de 1917, Odesa).​
A temperatura ambiente, el percarbonato de sodio sólido tiene la estructura cristalina ortorrómbica, con el grupo espacial cristalográfico Cmca. La estructura cambia a Pbca a medida que los cristales se enfrían por debajo de aproximadamente -30 °C.​
Disuelto en agua, el percarbonato de sodio produce una mezcla de peróxido de hidrógeno (que eventualmente se descompone en agua y oxígeno), cationes de sodio Na + y carbonato CO2−3.​​
El percarbonato de sodio se produce industrialmente mediante la cristalización de una solución de carbonato de sodio y peróxido de hidrógeno, con un control adecuado del pH y las concentraciones.​​​ Este también es un método de laboratorio conveniente.
Alternativamente, el carbonato de sodio seco se puede tratar directamente con una solución concentrada de peróxido de hidrógeno.​
La capacidad de producción mundial de este compuesto se estimó en varios cientos de miles de toneladas para 2004.​
Como agente oxidante, el percarbonato de sodio es un ingrediente en una serie de productos de limpieza para el hogar y la ropa, incluidos los productos de blanqueador sin cloro como Oxyper, OxiClean, Tide detergente para ropa​ y Vanish.​
Muchos productos comerciales mezclan un porcentaje de percarbonato de sodio con carbonato de sodio. El porcentaje promedio de un producto "Oxy" en el supermercado es 65% de percarbonato de sodio y 35% de carbonato de sodio. Los "ultra refuerzos" que se ven en los infomerciales pueden contener hasta un 80% de percarbonato de sodio. Sin embargo, el percarbonato de sodio es menos costoso en su forma pura y se puede ajustar a cualquier porcentaje que el usuario desee.
El percarbonato de sodio puede usarse en síntesis orgánica como una fuente conveniente de H₂O₂ anhidro, en particular en solventes que no pueden disolver el carbonato pero que pueden extraer el H2O2 de él.​ Un método para generar ácido trifluoroperacético in situ para su uso en oxidaciones de Baeyer-Villiger se ha informado de percarbonato de sodio y anhídrido trifluoroacético; proporciona un enfoque conveniente y económico para este reactivo sin la necesidad de obtener peróxido de hidrógeno altamente concentrado.​​
Octaborato de disodio tetrahidratado

El octaborato de disodio tetrahidratado o octaborato disódico tetrahidratado es una sal alcalina de boro. Es una sustancia química en polvo blanca, inodora, que no es inflamable, combustible ni explosiva y tiene baja toxicidad oral y cutánea agudas. Esta sal, que comúnmente se confunde con el ácido bórico, se usa como insecticida​ y fertilizante y se vende comúnmente en forma líquida o en polvo. También es efectivo contra hongos y algas. Tiene una vida útil ilimitada y no se ve afectado por la temperatura. Este producto químico también es ignífugo.​ En forma líquida, comúnmente se disuelve en agua y se rocía sobre superficies de madera para matar termitas, escarabajos de polvo, hormigas carpinteras, hongos y algas. También está disponible como gránulos para empotrar en madera estructural. Esta sal alcalina no debe confundirse con el ácido bórico (una sustancia química ácida) o el aditivo de detergente para ropa utilizado para las manchas.
Es de uso común para el control o para la prevención de termitas, el concentrado líquido se usa en una proporción de 1:1 con agua. Las ventajas de este producto químico sobre el tratamiento convencional de control de plagas es que no es cancerígeno y tiene una baja toxicidad para humanos y mascotas. También es inodoro y su aplicación adecuada dura toda la vida de la madera. No es necesario repetir el tratamiento.
Se ha demostrado que reduce significativamente las poblaciones de ácaros del polvo en el hogar cuando se combina con el uso regular de aspiradoras.​
Se produce mediante la reacción entre el bórax y el ácido bórico:​
El octaborato de disodio, en sus formas anhidras y tetrahidratada, se clasifica como "tóxico para la reproducción categoría 1B (presunto tóxico para la reproducción humana)" en virtud del Reglamento de Clasificación, Etiquetado y Envasado de la UE (Reglamento CLP). El código de peligro CLP y la declaración son "H360FD: Puede perjudicar a la fertilidad. Puede dañar al feto".

Lejía de ceniza

La lejía de ceniza, también llamada en varios lugares como agua de ceniza, jabón de ceniza o detergente de ceniza es una preparación líquida que se obtiene al mezclar agua destilada y ceniza de madera quemada y también aceite vegetal (si se desea jabón), y tiene multitud de usos en limpieza del hogar y jardinería.​ Es más suave que la lejía convencional, aun así es también un potente desinfectante e irritante (corrosivo), y además es económico y ecológico (pues no daña el medio ambiente).​
Tiene un pH muy básico (~13). El proceso químico funciona como un jabón, destruyendo las membranas plasmáticas de los microorganismos.​ En el hogar, se usa para limpiar la comida (verdura, fruta...), la vajilla, hacer la colada (de hecho, esta expresión proviene de «colar» la ceniza​) o fregar el suelo. En jardinería, se usa como bactericida, insecticida y fungicida (controlar las plagas como el pulgón, los gusanos, la cochinilla, la araña roja, el mildiu, el oídio o el botrytis entre otros). Se puede usar para pulverizar las plantas. No es tóxico para los animales.
Es tóxico si se bebe, como la lejía convencional. La lejía convencional, que consiste en otros compuestos químicos como el Hipoclorito de sodio (NaClO) en solución acuosa, es por lo general más fuerte que la lejía de ceniza, pero también más tóxica y contaminante.
La ceniza de madera tiene carbonato de potasio (K2CO3), que en contacto con el agua forma hidróxido de potasio (potasa cáustica). La madera es más efectiva mientras más dura sea (como la madera de encina, de roble, de quebracho), sin aditivos y sin tratar. Se debe arder en un fuego potente para que la ceniza quede lo más blanca posible. Debe tamizarse para poder ser usada.
No se puede usar agua de pozo ni de grifo (aunque sea potable, porque tiene cloro). Se recomienda destilada, de lluvia o blanda.
La mezcla se deja reposar, mínimo una 1-2 noches. Para comprobar que ya estuviera hecha, antaño se dejaba caer un huevo en el líquido, y ver si flotaba. La ceniza se debe colar y quedarse únicamente con el agua. Cuando luzca con un tono parecido al ron añejo, se comienza el proceso de saponificación. Para concentrarlo, se hierve en olla (que no sea de aluminio) o se deja al sol con un aceite vegetal, como el aceite de oliva (si se desea jabón potásico).​
La lejía de ceniza se ha usado por muchas culturas desde tiempos ancestrales y sólo recientemente se ha sustituido por compuestos químicos de laboratorio. En la Antigüedad, ya los egipcios y babilónicos usaban jabones con el poder limpiador de la ceniza.​ Los antiguos griegos llamaban a la lejía konis, «ceniza» (luego, en latín, kinis). En la época del Imperio Romano también se usaba esta lejía, llamada aqua lixivia («agua colada», de colar la ceniza). El proceso de separar la ceniza se llama lixiviar. En la Edad Media se usaba como limpiador y también para macerar productos como las aceitunas.
Según el diccionario de la Real Academia de la Lengua, una de las acepciones de colada puede ser: «lejía que se cuela en la ropa».​ En francés, hacer la colada se denomina faire la lessive, que proviene de lissive, lixivia.​
Linux (detergente)

Linux Vollwaschmittel (en alemán, detergente Linux) es una marca de detergente fabricada por la empresa suiza Rösch. Es bien conocido en los países de habla alemana.
Algunos han criticado que la marca use el término Linux, que es el nombre del núcleo del sistema operativo GNU/Linux. Sin embargo, debido a que no utiliza la marca comercial como término relacionado con la tecnología o la computación, su uso no infringe la marca registrada de Linus Torvalds.
La fábrica que produce el detergente Linux no tiene nada que ver con el sistema operativo. El fabricante del detergente parece tener una preferencia por nombres del mundo de las computadoras, pues también ofrecen un quitamanchas llamado mäc oxi​ y un suavizante para la ropa llamado micro&soft.​
Pigeon (company)

Pigeon Corporation, established in 1978, is a manufacturer of household products. In August 1978, the company created of "Pigeon", the first fabric softener made in Korea.From 1978 to 2009, the company held a dominant market share, exceeding 50%, of the fabric softener market in South Korea. However, starting in 2011, its market share began to decline, and by 2022, it had reduced to approximately 20%.
Dreft

Dreft is a laundry detergent in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom and other markets. First produced by Procter & Gamble in 1933, it was the first synthetic detergent. The Fairy brand of washing-up liquid and Cascade brand of dishwasher detergent are also sold under the name "Dreft" in some countries, including the Netherlands and Belgium. In Canada, the laundry detergent is sold under the brand name Ivory Snow.
Synthetic detergents represented an improvement in laundry washing because these synthetic materials are less susceptible to hard water. The commercial availability of fatty alcohols opened the way for the production of the related organosulfate derivatives. In Germany, BASF started selling FeWA, followed by Dreft in the following year.
By 1947, Dreft dishwashing detergent was released. Since the 1940s, hypoallergenic formulations of Dreft ("Dreft Stage 1" and "Dreft Stage 2") have been advertised as an ideal laundry detergent for washing baby linens. The slogan for Dreft is "For a Clean You Can Trust". It is generally marketed to mothers of newborns.
Dryer ball

A dryer ball is a spherical laundry device for tumbling clothes dryers used as an alternative to fabric softener, reducing static electricity or softening clothing, or to accelerate the drying process.
Dryer balls are typically manufactured out of felted wool (the original material used for manufacture), rubber, or plastic. Wool variants are typically smooth, while rubber or plastic variants typically include spiked protrusions and may be shaped differently than a sphere. Rubber and plastic balls are more durable than woolen ones, which need periodic replacement depending on frequency of use.
Dryer balls are said to act as a moving buffer, preventing wet laundry from coalescing in the dryer, allowing increased air flow. A study has shown dryer balls mix into the fabric load as it is lifted by the dryer drum, but experience higher speeds than fabrics and decelerate rapidly when tumbling. The material and design of the ball varies its properties: wool balls are said to absorb moisture, accelerating drying. Conventional fabric softener often gives a fragrance via aroma compound to clothing. While typically unscented by default, wool dryer balls can be used to perfume laundry via application of essential oils to the balls before use.
The efficacy of plastic dryer balls was disputed by Popular Mechanics who, in 2009, published experiment results in which staff were unable to find any beneficial effects.
Dryer balls are touted to be environmentally friendly for varying reasons versus conventional fabric softeners. Conventional softeners primarily function chemically, employing quaternary ammonium cation or stearic acid, which is either suspended in liquid or applied to polyester in the case of dryer sheets. Dryer balls function mechanically and are reusable, compared to dryer sheets which are typically one-use products. Wool dryer balls are typically biodegradable, however can sometimes be chemically altered or bleached, reducing eco-friendliness. The increased drying speeds claimed by using dryer balls helps reduce energy use.
Dryer balls are sometimes touted as hypoallergenic or better for those with sensitive skin as they typically do not apply artificial softening agents or fragrances to clothing.
Dishwasher detergent

Dishwasher detergent is a detergent made for washing dishes in a dishwasher. Dishwasher detergent is different from dishwashing liquid made to wash dishes by hand.
When using a dishwasher, the user must select a special detergent for its use. All detergents are designed for use after the user scrapes leftover food from the dishes before washing. To function, the user places dishes in the dishwasher in such fashion that the surface of all dishes is open to the flow of water.
Most dishwasher detergents are incompatible for use with silver, brass, cast iron, bronze, aluminum, pewter, and goldleaf. They can also harm disposable plastic, anything wood, knives with hollow handles, and fine glassware.They can lead to these materials to be bleached or oxidized.
There are specific examples of chemical reactions we use in our everyday lives. For example, a dishwasher detergent uses sodium hypochlorite (simple bleach) and sodium carbonate (washing soda) in a chemical reaction to clean the dishes. Dishes washed in cold water are less clean than dishes washed in hot water.
Different kinds of dishwashing detergent contain different combinations of ingredients. Common ingredients include:
Dishwashing detergent may also contain:
Dishwasher detergents are generally strongly alkaline (basic).
Inexpensive powders may contain sand. Such detergents may harm the dishes and the dishwasher. Powdered detergents are more likely to cause fading on china patterns.
Besides older style detergents for dishwashers, biodegradable detergents also exist for dishwashers. These detergents may be more environmentally friendly than conventional detergents.
Hand-washing dish detergent (washing up liquid) creates a large foam of bubbles which will leak from the dishwasher.
Rinse aid (sometimes called rinse agent) contains surfactants and uses Marangoni stress to prevent droplet formation, so that water drains from the surfaces in thin sheets, rather than forming droplets.
Rinse aid prevents "spotting" on glassware (caused by droplets of water drying and leaving behind dissolved limescale minerals), and improves drying performance as there is less water remaining to be dried, and a thinner sheet of water has a much larger surface area than a droplet of the same volume.

The International Democracy Union (IDU; known as the International Democrat Union until September 2023) is an international alliance of centre-right to right-wing political parties. Headquartered in Munich, Germany, the IDU consists of 84 full and associate members from 65 countries. It is chaired by Stephen Harper, former prime minister of Canada. It has three affiliated international organizations (International Young Democrat Union, International Women's Democracy Union and SME Global ) and six affiliated regional organizations (Union of Latin American Parties, Asia Pacific Democrat Union, Caribbean Democrat Union, Democrat Union of Africa, European People's Party and European Conservatives and Reformists Party).
The IDU allows "centre-right" conservative political parties around the world to establish contacts and discuss different views on public policy and related matters. Their stated goal is the promotion of "democracy and [of] centre-right policies around the globe". The IDU has some overlap of member parties with the Centrist Democrat International (CDI), but the CDI is more centrist, Christian democrat and communitarian than the IDU.
The group was founded in 1983 as the umbrella organisation for the European Democrat Union (EDU), Caribbean Democrat Union (CDU), and the Asia Pacific Democrat Union (APDU). Created at the instigation of the Konrad Adenauer Foundation and U.S. Vice President George H. W. Bush, the organisation was founded at a joint meeting of the EDU and APDU in London, United Kingdom.
The IDU was founded in London on 24 June 1983. According to Richard V. Allen, to be admitted as a member, a party must qualify as a "mainstream conservative" party influenced by classical liberalism.
The founding declaration was signed by 19 persons:
Since 1997, all Chairmen have been part of the Anglosphere (United Kingdom, Australia,New Zealand and Canada).
Jalyukt Shivar Abhiyan

The Maharashtra government in India has launched a water conservation scheme named Jalyukt Shivar Abhiyan to make Maharashtra a drought-free state by 2019. The programme aims to make 5000 villages free of water scarcity every year.
The key aim of Jalyukta Shivar Abhiyan is to establish belief in a farmer that "every drop of rainwater is owned by me and it should percolate in my land".
The flagship programme launched by Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, Jalyukta Shivar Abhiyan aims to bring water empowerment to 25,000 drought-affected villages in Maharashtra within next five years. The programme Jalyukt Shivar was initiated by Pankaja Munde. With the passing time, the scheme has been going strong with villages building infrastructure and making the programme one of the largest Government initiatives in terms of public participation.
The Water Conservation Department of Maharashtra government conducted a logo competition on the Maharashtra MyGov Portal with an objective to widen its scope of public participation in flagship program.
Mr Kishor Gaikwad received an award in Mumbai for best design by Hon. Chief Minister of Maharashtra Devendra Fadnavis on 4 January 2018.
List of North Korean propaganda slogans

Within North Korea, propaganda contains several slogans which are considered an important aspect. Slogans depict how citizens are expected to behave, think and dress. North Korean propaganda slogans are very similar to propaganda by socialist countries, such as Maoist China, as they emphasise the strength of the military, the creation of a utopian society, and devotion to the state and the Supreme Leader.
Despite hostile relations between North and South Korea, as well as being regarded as a secluded nation, slogans and posters have been made in support of Korean reunification, while others were made to promote the April Spring Friendship Art Festival. The last in-person performance was held in 2018 amidst bilateral tensions, and was subsequently delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, Kim Jong Un formally abandoned efforts to reunify Korea in 2024.
Many slogans encourage the timely production of crops, such as vegetables, mushrooms, and other staple foods. These messages became more prevalent following the 1996 famine that killed an estimated 3 million people. Slogans frequently contain calls to action designed to bolster patriotic feelings or encourage citizens to further the country's economy. Likewise, slogans supporting the sustainability and creation of renewable and non-renewable resources, such as electricity, coal and water, also exist. Slogans have also been written to remind citizens of tasks and plans set up by the government, such as the "20 × 10 Policy", which aims to build "modernized" factories in 20 cities and counties per year over the course of 10 years. Posters have also been created to promote the April Spring Friendship Art Festival, the largest international competition in North Korea.
Capitalist countries, such as South Korea and the United States, are portrayed in a negative light, often depicted being killed or humiliated by North Korean soldiers. In propaganda slogans, Americans are often referred to as "imperialists". Posters have occasionally been made in support of Korean reunification, especially after the Inter-Korean summits, but in 2024, North Korea formally abandoned efforts to peacefully reunify Korea. A fundamental ideology in the country, single-hearted unity (Korean: 일심단결; lit. One heart, one mind, also referred to as "single-minded unity") is the practise of uniting to pursue a common goal. In the case of North Korea, Kim Jong Un has stated that the population's thinking and morals are "united closely around the leader".
For a slogan to be eligible for this list, it must meet these criteria first:

Navy shower

A Navy shower (also known as a "combat shower", "military shower", "sea shower", "staggered shower", or "G.I. bath") is a method of showering that allows for significant conservation of water and energy by turning off the flow of water in the middle portion of the shower while lathering. The total running time of this kind of shower can last less than two minutes – using an initial thirty seconds or so to get wet, followed by shutting off the water, using soap and shampoo and lathering, then rinsing for a minute or less.
Navy showers originated on naval ships, where supplies of fresh water were often scarce. Using this method, crew members were able to stay clean, while conserving their limited water supply. The concept has also been adopted by some other people who wish to conserve water and the energy needed to heat the water, for both environmental and economic reasons. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, water heating is typically the second-largest energy expense in homes (after space heating).
Maritime cruisers often take navy showers when they are not in a port with easy access to fresh water. A ten-minute shower takes as much as 230 liters (60 U.S. gal) of water, while a navy shower usually takes as little as 11 liters (3 U.S. gal); one person can save up to 56,000 liters (15,000 U.S. gal) per year.
In United States Navy parlance, the term "Hollywood shower" contrasts with a Navy shower, referring to a long shower with very high water usage.
Monumento a la Hispanidad (Madrid)

El monumento a la Hispanidad se encuentra en la ciudad española de Madrid, frente al Museo de América en la Ciudad Universitaria. Inaugurado el 5 de junio de 1971 con la presencia del entonces príncipe Don Juan Carlos de Borbón, fue creado por Agustín de la Herrán Matorras, escultor español que también realizó, entre otras obras, la Virgen del Panecillo en Quito.​ Puede considerarse parte de un plan del régimen franquista para la construcción de monumentos conmemorativos en la capital española relacionados con Hispanoamérica que trataba de complementar con contenido simbólico el programa de cooperación iberoamericana de la dictadura.​
La escultura representa un tronco viejo de encina que lleva en su parte alta tres figuras formando un conjunto: un guerrero español montado en su caballo que ayuda a levantarse a una mujer indígena, representando la unión de las culturas española e hispanoamericana.​​​ En la parte trasera de la escultura, aparece una inscripción alusiva a la inauguración del monumento.​

Religión en Ecuador

En cuanto a la religión en Ecuador, la mayoría de la población ecuatoriana profesa la fe católica.​
Existen varias minorías religiosas, que abarcan desde denominaciones protestantes hasta el budismo, el islam y el judaísmo, entre otras.​​
El catolicismo es la religión más profesada por los ecuatorianos.​ La Iglesia Católica posee un lugar importante en los distintos aspectos de la sociedad ecuatoriana. La Constitución de 1869 designó al catolicismo como la religión oficial del país.
El actual Primado de Ecuador es el Arzobispo de Quito, Monseñor Alfredo Espinoza Mateus.​
Aunque los protestantes representan a una minoría de la población, estos han mostrado un leve aumento en los últimos años. La mayoría de ellos se denominan pentecostales. El 13% de los creyentes son protestantes, según un estudio realizado por el diario ecuatoriano El Comercio en 2014.​
Hay dos comunidades judías en Ecuador: la Comunidad Judía del Ecuador, con sede en Quito; y la Comunidad de Culto Israelita, con sede en Guayaquil. El número de judíos en el país ha disminuido considerablemente, debido principalmente al abandono de la fe por parte de los jóvenes o a la emigración de estos. Sin embargo, se cree que existen aproximadamente 600 miembros.​
La Comunidad Islámica del Ecuador es de denominación sunita, y tiene aproximadamente 60 miembros en Ecuador. Dirige la Mezquita Assalam en Quito. El Centro Islámico Al Hijra está ubicado en Guayaquil.​
El budismo fue traído originalmente a Ecuador por inmigrantes de China y Japón. Un gran número de estos inmigrantes y sus descendientes han conservado su religión nativa. En 1995, los misioneros taiwaneses comenzaron a construir el Templo Misión Budista en Guayaquil, uno de los templos budistas más grandes de Sudamérica.​
En Ecuador está garantizada la separación Iglesia-Estado.​
Cultura capulí

La cultura capulí (también llamada cultura nariño) es una cultura arqueológica ubicada hacia el siglo VII en el altiplano andino en la frontera entre Colombia y Ecuador, en los actuales departamento de Nariño y la provincia de Carchi, respectivamente. Esta cultura que enterró a sus caciques en tumbas con profundidades de 30 o 50 metros, mantuvo relaciones comerciales con los pobladores de la cuenca amazónica y el litoral del Pacífico. Trabajaron el oro fino por martillado, con técnicas semejantes a las culturas vecinas.
Simultáneamente, la región fue ocupada por otro grupo, los piartal, cuyos objetos de cerámica, madera, textiles y piezas de orfebrería, sorprenden por el refinamiento de su diseño y por su técnica única en el panorama orfebre regional.
Los descendientes de la cultura capulí, conocidos como tuza (pastor y quillacingas, sintieron la tardía influencia del Imperio incaico, y aún habitaban la zona en la época de la conquista española.
Pichincha Province

Pichincha (Spanish pronunciation: [piˈtʃintʃa]) is a province of Ecuador located in the northern Sierra region; its capital and largest city is Quito. It is bordered by Imbabura and Esmeraldas to the north, Cotopaxi and Santo Domingo de los Tsáchilas to the south, Napo and Sucumbíos to the east, and Esmeraldas and Santo Domingo de los Tsáchilas to the west.

The province is home to many rose plantations, which make up the bulk of Ecuador's floriculture industry.
Ethnic groups as of the Ecuadorian census of 2010:
The province is divided into eight cantons.
The Veiled Virgin

The Veiled Virgin is a Carrara marble statue carved in Rome by Italian sculptor Giovanni Strazza (1818–1875) depicting the bust of a veiled Virgin Mary. The exact date of the statue's completion is unknown, but it was probably in the early 1850s. The veil gives the appearance of being translucent, but is carved of marble. The technique is similar to Giuseppe Sanmartino's 1753 statue Veiled Christ in the Cappella Sansevero in Naples.
The statue was transported to Newfoundland in 1856, as recorded on December 4 in the diary of Bishop John Thomas Mullock: "Received safely from Rome, a beautiful statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary in marble, by Strazza. The face is veiled, and the figure and features are all seen. It is a perfect gem of art". It was then kept at the Bishop's Palace next to the Catholic Cathedral in St. John's until 1862, when Bishop Mullock presented it to Mother Mary Magdalene O'Shaughnessy, the Superior of the Presentation Convent. The bust has since remained under the care of Presentation Sisters, in Cathedral Square, St. John's.
In the context of the Risorgimento, the Veiled Virgin was intended to symbolize Italy.
Marble busts of veiled women were a popular theme among Strazza's contemporaries, the most important of whom were Pietro Rossi and Raffaelle Monti.
Virgin of Almudena

The Virgin of Almudena (Virgen de la Almudena) is a medieval statue of the Virgin Mary, mother of Jesus Christ. The Virgin Mary is regarded as a patroness of Madrid, Spain, under this title.
The Cathedral of Madrid is dedicated to the Virgin under this title, and the feast day, 9 November, is a major holiday in Madrid. There are replicas that are used in processions, as well as more recent versions of the statue at various places.
The original statue has been lost to history though. The present one dates to the 16th. Art historians attribute the statue now in the cathedral to the Netherlandish sculptor, Diego Copín de Holanda, who worked in Spain, around 1500. Its name derives from the Arabic term Al-Mudayna (المدينة), "the citadel."
Before the victory parade celebrating their performance in the 21-22 Champions League, Real Madrid presented the Champions League trophy before the statue in the cathedral.
There are various legends regarding the icon. The legend has it that the statue was brought from the Holy Land in the year 38 by James (Santiago), the apostle and brother of John, and like all relics, was deemed holy and considered to have supernatural properties.
One story is that in 712, prior to the capture of the town by advancing Muslim forces, the inhabitants of the town sealed the image of the Virgin inside the walls surrounding the town for its own protection.In the 11th century, when Madrid was reconquered by King Alfonso VI of Castile, the Christian soldiers endeavored to find the statue. After days of prayer, the spot on the wall hiding the icon crumbled, revealing the statue.
Another legend is that as Christian soldiers approached the town, they had a vision of Mary imploring them to allow her to lead them into the city. Again, the miraculous crumbling of the wall occurred, with the icon showing an entry route through the walls.
Juche Tower

The Juche Tower (more formally, the Tower of the Juche Idea), completed in 1982, is a monument in Pyongyang, the capital of North Korea, and is named after the ideology of Juche introduced by the country's first leader, Kim Il Sung.
The Juche Tower is situated on the east bank of the River Taedong, directly opposite Kim Il Sung Square on the west bank. It was built to commemorate Kim Il Sung's 70th birthday. Although his son and successor Kim Jong Il is officially credited as its designer, interviews with North Korean former officials contradict this assertion.
The architectural style of the Tower is inspired by stone pagodas of premodern Korea. The 170-metre (560 ft) structure is a four-sided tapering 150-metre (490 ft) spire – the tallest in granite – containing 25,550 blocks (365 × 70: one for each day of Kim Il Sung's life, excluding supplementary days for leap years), dressed in white stone with seventy dividers and capped with a 20-metre (66 ft)-high 45-ton illuminated metal torch.
The torch on top of the tower is always lit. It is possible to ascend the tower by elevator and there are wide views over Pyongyang from the viewing platform just below the torch.
At its base, there are reception rooms where videos explaining the tower's ideological importance are sometimes shown. The Juche Tower is the second tallest monumental column in the world after the San Jacinto Monument in Texas, United States, which is 2.9 metres (9.5 ft) taller.
Associated with the tower is a 30-metre-high (98 ft) statue consisting of three idealised figures each holding a tool – a hammer (the worker); a sickle (the peasant); and a writing brush (the "working intellectual") – in a classic Stalinist-style reminiscent of the Soviet statue Worker and Kolkhoz Woman. The three tools form the emblem of the ruling Workers' Party of Korea. There are also six smaller groups of figures, each 10 metres (33 ft) high, that symbolize other aspects of Juche ideology.
A wall carrying 82 friendship plaques from foreign supporters and Juche study groups forms part of the Tower.
