Milos Kirek
Milos Kirek (born Miloš Kučírek; 25 April 1946 – 9 February 1993) was a Czech actor. He was known for playing the Boss of the villainous gang in 1974 BAFTA-awarding winning children's drama Soldier and Me, based on David Line's 1966 novel Run for Your Life.

Run for Your Life (Line novel)
Children's literature portal

Run For Your Life (known in the US as Soldier and Me) is a children's adventure novel by Lionel Davidson writing as David Line, first published in 1966. An English boy, Woolcott, and his friend Szolda (whom he calls Soldier) are on the run because Szolda has overheard two men plotting a murder. Filmed as a TV series in 1974 using the US title Soldier and Me starring Gerry Sundquist as Woolcott and Richard Willis as Szolda. 9 30 minute episodes made by Granada Television.
Zero-curtain effect
The zero-curtain effect occurs in cold (particularly periglacial) environments where the phase transition of water to ice is slowed due to latent heat release. The effect is notably found in arctic and alpine permafrost sediments, and occurs where the air temperature falls below 0°C (the freezing point of water) followed by a rapid drop in soil temperature.

Because of this effect, the lowering of temperature in moist, cold ground does not happen at a uniform rate. The loss of heat through conduction is reduced when water freezes, and latent heat is released. This heat of fusion is continually released until all the subsurface water has frozen, at which point temperatures can continue to fall.

Therefore, for as long as water is available to the system (for example, through cryosuction/capillary action) the temperature of the sediment will remain at a constant temperature.

Periglaciation
Periglaciation (adjective: "periglacial", referring to places at the edges of glacial areas) describes geomorphic processes that result from seasonal thawing and freezing, very often in areas of permafrost. The meltwater may refreeze in ice wedges and other structures. "Periglacial" originally suggested an environment located on the margin of past glaciers. However, freeze and thaw cycles influence landscapes also outside areas of past glaciation. Therefore, periglacial environments are anywhere when freezing and thawing modify the landscape in a significant manner.

Valiente Peak
Valiente Peak (65°27′S 63°43′W﻿ / ﻿65.450°S 63.717°W﻿ / -65.450; -63.717) is a peak (2,165 m) on Kyiv Peninsula on the west coast of Graham Land, standing close north of the mouth of Lever Glacier where the latter enters Beascochea Bay. It was discovered by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1908–10, under Charcot and named by him "Sommet Saens Valiente," probably for Captain J.P. Saenz Valiente of Argentina. It was remapped by the British Graham Land Expedition (BGLE) under Rymill during surveys in Beascochea Bay in August 1935 and a journey to Trooz Glacier in January 1936. The name was shortened by the United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) in 1959.

Baneklubberne Tournaments
The Baneklubberne Tournaments were two Danish football tournaments held in the autumn of 1911, in Copenhagen. One round-robin style league tournament, and one knockout-based cup tournament were played.

Football clubs in Copenhagen would usually participate in the league and cup tournaments organized by the Copenhagen Football Association, but in 1911 a dispute between the clubs that owned their own fields, and those that did not, meant that only those not owning their own field participated in the regular tournaments. These clubs were known as Fælledklubberne (Danish for the green clubs). The field owning clubs, known as Baneklubberne (Danish for the field clubs) created their own tournaments.
Sheepwashing
Sheepwashing is an 1817 landscape painting by the British artist David Wilkie. It depicts a rural scene of shepherds washing sheep near a watermill. Wilkie was an admirer of Dutch landscapes of the seventeenth century by Jacob van Ruisdael and Meindert Hobbema and the painting is reminiscent of their styles. It has been described as the only "pure landscape" that Wilkie ever exhibited.

The painting was displayed at the British Institution's annual exhibition in 1817. It was inspired by sketches he had made during an 1815 visit to Wiltshire. The scene shows the village of Fisherton de la Mere on the River Wylye near Salisbury. Today the painting is in the collection of the Scottish National Gallery, having been acquired in 1911. A watercolour study for the work is in the collection of the Royal Academy in London.

Shepherd
A shepherd is a person who tends, herds, feeds, or guards flocks of sheep. Shepherding is one of the world's oldest occupations; it exists in many parts of the globe, and it is an important part of pastoralist animal husbandry.

Because the occupation is so widespread, many religions and cultures have symbolic or metaphorical references to shepherds. For example, Jesus called himself the Good Shepherd, and ancient Greek mythologies highlighted shepherds such as Endymion and Daphnis. This symbolism and shepherds as characters are at the center of pastoral literature and art.

Paper
Paper is a thin sheet of matted cellulose fibers. Largely derived from lignocellulose, paper is created from a pulp dissolved into a slurry that is drained and dried into sheets. Different types of paper are defined by constituent fiber, paper pulp, sizing, coating, paper size, paper density and grammage.

The papermaking process developed in East Asia at least as early as 105 CE by the Han court eunuch Cai Lun, although archaeological evidence exists of 2nd century BCE paper-like material in China. Before the industrialization of paper production, the most common paper was rag paper, made from discarded natural fiber textiles collected by ragpickers. The 1843 invention of wood pulp, coupled with the Second Industrial Revolution, made pulpwood paper the dominant variety to this day.

Battle of Hawija
The Battle of Hawija was an offensive launched in September 2017 by the Iraqi Army, in order to recapture the town of Hawija and the surrounding areas from the Islamic State (IS).

The offensive was concurrent with the 2017 Central Syria campaign by the Syrian Army to capture IS territory towards Deir ez-Zor, as well as with the Raqqa campaign (2016–17) conducted by the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) against IS's de facto capital city and stronghold in Syria.
KHAD

Domestic security
Domestic security is the act of keeping peace within the borders of a sovereign state or other self-governing territories, generally by upholding the national law and defending against internal security threats. This task and role differs from border security. Responsibility for internal security may range from police to paramilitary forces, and in exceptional circumstances, the military itself.
Law of New Zealand
The law of New Zealand uses the English common law system, inherited from being a part of the British Empire.

There are several sources of law, the primary ones being acts enacted by the New Zealand Parliament and case law made by decisions of the courts of New Zealand. At a more fundamental level, the law of New Zealand is based on three related principles: parliamentary sovereignty; the rule of law; and the separation of powers.

Separation of powers
The separation of powers principle functionally differentiates several types of state power (usually legislation, adjudication, and execution) and requires these operations of government to be conceptually and institutionally distinct and clearly articulated, thereby maintaining the integrity of each branch. To put this model into practice, government is divided into structurally independent branches to perform various functions (most often a legislature, a judiciary and an administration, sometimes known as the trias politica). When each function is allocated strictly to one branch, a government is described as having a high degree of separation; whereas, when one person or branch plays a significant part in the exercise of more than one function, this represents a fusion of powers. When one branch holds unlimited state power and delegates its powers to other organs as it sees fit, as is the case in communist states, that is called unified power.
