Are You Ready to P(Art)y at FAIRCON18?
Earlier this week, I was in Pittsburgh for a final walk-through and beginning to put the final touches on the 2018 FAIR Conference at Carnegie Mellon University. FAIRCON18, taking place on October 16-17, is going to be a fantastic event providing attendees the chance to learn about all things FAIR, while engaging with other top minds in the field.
You can check out our full FAIRCON18 Agenda that includes over a dozen sessions with speakers and panelists from Bank of America, Walmart, Fidelity, Highmark, TIAA, and many more.
I am also very excited for our Welcome Event this year at the end of Day 1, October 16.
With help from our sponsor Evolver Inc., the event will be hosted at The Andy Warhol Museum.
Warhol was a revolutionary in the art world – he pushed the boundaries of conventional thinking, just as FAIR practitioners are challenging the status quo in risk management! We have rented out the museum to give you access to Warhol's iconic work and get in some awesome photo opportunities (that's me on the couch).
Enjoy the art, listen to some fantastic live music, and continue to mingle with fellow Institute members and FAIR experts!
August is your last month to get Discount Pricing -- so reserve your spot today for the leading-edge event of the year for risk professionals.


In the spring of the that wonderful year, I was in Beirut. The gardens were full of Nisan flowers and the earth was carpeted with green grass, and like a secret of earth revealed to Heaven. The orange trees and apple trees, looking like houris or brides sent by nature to inspire poets and excite the imagination, were wearing white garments of perfumed blossoms.
Spring is beautiful everywhere, but it is most beautiful in Lebanon. It is a spirit that roams round the earth but hovers over Lebanon, conversing with kings and prophets, singing with the rives the songs of Solomon, and repeating with the Holy Cedars of Lebanon the memory of ancient glory. Beirut, free from the mud of winter and the dust of summer, is like a bride in the spring, or like a mermaid sitting by the side of a brook drying her smooth skin in the rays of the sun.
Much affected by his words, I was attracted to him like a bird whose instinct leads him to his nest before the coming of the tempest. As we sat down, he told us about his friendship with my father, recalling the time which they spent together. An old man likes to return in memory to the days of his youth like a stranger who longs to go back to his own country. He delights to tell stories of the past like a poet who takes pleasure in reciting his best poem. He lives spiritually in the past because the present passes swiftly, and the future seems to him an approach to the oblivion of the grave. An hour full of old memories passed like the shadows of the trees over the grass. When Farris Effandi started to leave, he put his left hand on my shoulder and shook my right hand, saying, " I have not seen your father for twenty years. I hope you will l take his place in frequent visits to my house." I promised gratefully to do my duty toward a dear friend of my father.
As he uttered these words, I noticed that his face clouded. Then he continued, "Farris Effandi is a good old man with a noble heart, but he lacks will power. People lead him like a blind man. His daughter obeys him in spite of her pride and intelligence, and this is the secret which lurks in the life of father and daughter. This secret was discovered by an evil man who is a bishop and whose wickedness hides in the shadow of his Gospel. He makes the people believe that he is kind and noble. He is the head of religion in this land of the religions. The people obey and worship him. he leads them like a flock of lambs to the slaughter house. This bishop has a nephew who is full of hatefulness and corruption. The day will come sooner or later when he will place his nephew on his right and Farris Effandi's daughter on this left, and, holding with his evil hand the wreath of matrimony over their heads, will tie a pure virgin to a filthy degenerate, placing the heart of the day in the bosom of the night.
As I left the house I told my friend that I was going to visit Farris Effandi in a few days for the purpose of fulfilling my promise and for the sake of the friendship which had joined him and my father. He stared at me for a moment, and I noticed a change in his expression as if my few simple words had revealed to him a new idea. Then he looked straight through my eyes in a strange manner, a look of love, mercy, and fear– the look of a prophet who foresees what no one else can divine. Then his lips trembled a little, but he said nothing when I started towards the door. That strange look followed me, the meaning of which I could not understand until I grew up in the world of experience, where hearts understand each other intuitively and where spirits are mature with knowledge.


MOGADISHU (Caasimada Online)—Somalia has held a ministerial meeting of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) contact group in the capital of Mogadishu.
Somali PM Hassan Ali Khaire has officially opened the OIC summit to focus on the ways and means to promote durable peace and institutional stability in Somalia.
He says the OIC meeting in Somalia is a symbol of country's return to the community of nations as a proactive actor, seeking solutions to global challenges.
"We have all ingredients for success, what we lack is a champion to change the narratives…. our brothers in the OIC can take the lead here, and challenge the world to begin to engage with the New Somalia under new terms", Khaire said.
The OIC's Twitter feed said the OIC and its Member States intensified their assistance to the authorities of Somalia to strengthen institutions and to combat the menace of the Al-Shabaab.
"We have condemned the terrorist acts perpetrated by Al-Shabaab in Somalia".
The OIC has urged the Islamist groups fighting the Weak-Western backed government to abandon their violence and join the peace process to contribute to national reconciliation in Somalia.
Somalia as a founding State of the OIC has always occupied a high place on the OIC agenda and the OIC continues to actively contribute at various levels for achieving peace and stability in the war-ravaged nation.

Seven members of Tenterfield's Walker family put up their hand to serve in WWI. Of those, four brothers saw active service and their sister Alice (wife of Banjo Paterson) served with the Red Cross in France. One of the boys, however, was never to return. Several descendents of the Walker family – the name so synonymous with Tenterfield – gathered at Tenterfield Cemetery on Sunday, September 9 to mark the centenary of the fall of Douglas Walker on the fields of France. A special plaque in Douglas's honour was unveiled on the grave of his father, William Henry Walker of Tenterfield Station fame. His mother Georgina had received a special award for her sacrifice in having so many sons enlist, but that number may have included a son-in-law, none other than Banjo Patterson. The influence of William and his brother James went far beyond the boundaries of Tenterfield Station, and their push to make Tenterfield the capital of the soon-to-be-federated country held some sway and merit. Coming from Scotland they found the mild climate somewhat familiar, and the town was well-placed midway between the family's huge banking interests and pastoral holdings from Townsville to Melbourne. WH's great-grandson Scott Walker said William and his brother James had plenty of connections in politics and government. James was a president of the Bank of NSW, a senator in the Legislative Assembly and was responsible for drafting the Australian Constitution. Their older cousin Thomas Walker, who started the Bank of NSW and financed Tenterfield Station, also provided the money to construct the former Maternity Wing at Tenterfield Hospital. In 1845 as the member for Port Melbourne, he petitioned his friend Queen Victoria for the separation of the district of Port Phillip from the remainder of NSW, requesting permission to name the new state Victoria in her honour. The Walkers were cousins of the Bowes Lyon family back in Britain. When two of Douglas's brothers were wounded in WWI they were repatriated to Glamis Castle, the home of their great-grandmother, which had been turned into a convalescent hospital. It was here that they received a visit from their cousin, Elizabeth Bowes Lyon, who later went on to marry King George VI and become Queen. Sadly Douglas was killed in action. He was born in Tenterfield, going on to work as a telegraphist for the Eastern Extension Telegraph Company and joined the Singapore Volunteers during an overseas posting in 2014. He arrived in Darwin in 1915 to take up a supervisory position with the company, but later resigned that position in order to enlist (to the dismay of the authorities who preferred telegraphists to remain at their posts). He was assigned to 14 Machine Gun Regiment, 6 Reinforcements, later transferring to 23rd Machine Gun Company, promoted to the rank of corporal on July 10, 1918. In early September the company was going up the Inferno trench, to the left of Mont St. Quentin, to rescue a British contingent in trouble. "Three weakened and tired Australian divisions took on five fresh German divisions over the three days, seven Victoria Crosses handed out," it was reported in the Cable and Wireless monthly journal The Zodiac. Douglas was killed just three hours before his unit was relieved, never to go into action again. He died at Bouchavasnes on September 3, 1918 when the Germans dropped a shell into the trench, killing him and four others. The Red Cross reports one of his brothers was not far away but didn't arrive in time to say his goodbyes. "Blessed with the sweetest of dispositions and the capacity for making friends and keeping them, Mr Walker will be missed by a wide circle of friends," the Northern Territory Times and Gazette reported later that month. He was 34. He lies in Peronne Road Cemetery in Mericourt, France and his name appears on the Darwin Cenotaph memorial. A hundred years later, family members gathered to also commemorate him in his hometown, placing a plaque on his father's grave. The obituary of Douglas Walker, published in The Zodiac in December 1918… OLD DON It came as a severe blow to his old pals of the Extension, when the melancholy news was passed round that, on 3rd September 1918, Douglas Walker – known to all in the service as "Old Don" – had been killed in action. It was the present writer's good fortune to have been with him at several Extension Stations, and he was undoubtedly one of the finest characters that ever came out of La Perouse or graced a Cable Station. Handsome, brown as a berry, hard as nails, with an air of elasticity about him that fascinated, he was splendid. Excelling at rugger, tennis, cricket, he was perhaps at his best on horseback, and he rode as he lived, straight as a die, scoffing at danger. He came from good Scottish stock which, when planted in the generous clime of our Southern Queensland border, could not but produce the best. The ideal Australian, setting a standard, which his pale would fain have reached. A spice of mischief, always near the surface, of his quiet nature, made us love him.

Man hit, killed by SUV on I-70 near Glenwood Springs
Copyright The E.W. Scripps Company
GLENWOOD SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) -- Authorities have released the name of a man who was hit and killed by an SUV on Interstate 70 west of Glenwood Springs.
The Post Independent reports 68-year-old Donald Salisbury, of Streator, Illinois, was trying to alert westbound drivers Thursday night that the vehicle he was in had hit an elk and was disabled. Salisbury's vehicle was blocking the left lane around a curve when he was hit.
Josh Lewis, a spokesman for the Colorado State Patrol, says investigators do not believe the driver who hit Salisbury was at fault.
The coroner's office did not release any addition information about the other people in either vehicle.

The Mysterious Stranger, And Other Stories
Novel | English | 27/09/14
It was in 1590—winter. Austria was far away from the world, and asleep; it was still the Middle Ages in Austria, and promised to remain so forever. Some even set it away back centuries upon centuries and said that by the mental and spiritual clock it was still the Age of Belief in Austria. But they meant it as a compliment, not a slur, and it was so taken, and we were all proud of it. I remember it well, although I was only a boy; and I remember, too, the pleasure it gave me.
Yes, Austria was far from the world, and asleep, and our village was in the middle of that sleep, being in the middle of Austria. It drowsed in peace in the deep privacy of a hilly and woodsy solitude where news from the world hardly ever came to disturb its dreams, and was infinitely content. At its front flowed the tranquil river, its surface painted with cloud-forms and the reflections of drifting arks and stone-boats; behind it rose the woody steeps to the base of the lofty precipice; from the top of the precipice frowned a vast castle, its long stretch of towers and bastions mailed in vines; beyond the river, a league to the left, was a tumbled expanse of forest-clothed hills cloven by winding gorges where the sun never penetrated; and to the right a precipice overlooked the river, and between it and the hills just spoken of lay a far-reaching plain dotted with little homesteads nested among orchards and shade trees.
The whole region for leagues around was the hereditary property of a prince, whose servants kept the castle always in perfect condition for occupancy, but neither he nor his family came there oftener than once in five years. When they came it was as if the lord of the world had arrived, and had brought all the glories of its kingdoms along; and when they went they left a calm behind which was like the deep sleep which follows an orgy.

1937 Josephine 2022
Josephine Spagna
Josephine "Jo" Spagna, 85, died peacefully at Corrigan Place with family at her side on August 18, 2022 after enduring dementia for 15 years. Jo was born on August 13, 1937 in Potenza, Italy to Giovanni and Antoinetta Spera. At 10 years old, Jo traveled with family on the S.S. Marine Shark from Italy to Ellis Island in New York. She lived in Jamaica, Queens and attended St. Pius V Catholic School and John Adams High School. In 1958, she met Robert "Bob" Spagna at a CYO dance and he proposed three weeks later. They were married on May 30, 1959, lived in Bayside and then Corona, Queens, and had two daughters. Jo worked at Irving Trust at One Wall St. and later, at a medical lab. In 1980, she and her family moved to Port Richey, FL. Jo was a longtime parishioner at St. James Catholic Church and worked as a paraprofessional in Pasco County schools, most recently at Northwest Elementary School in Hudson. Back then, she spent many of her summer days with her grandkids, picking oranges and figs in the back yard, teaching them a "word of the day," cooking (often Italian food), and making them wait until 3 p.m. to watch TV (which they now understand and appreciate). After she retired in 2000, she enjoyed several years of travel and leisure. Throughout her life, she loved music, singing, dancing, laughing, family gatherings, her sisters, her Italian heritage, and working with children in Pasco's schools. Jo was jovial, a joy to be around, to laugh with, and to eat with — she made the best braciole, pasta fagioli, and struffoli. She is beloved by her family, friends, neighbors, and former colleagues and will be deeply missed. She is survived by her husband of 63 years, Bob Spagna; daughters Linda Spenceley (Steve) and Laura Cook (Royce Brown); grandchildren Michael Spenceley (Danna) and Arleen Spenceley; siblings Concetta Toscano (Louie - predeceased) and Mary DiNoto (Frank); sister-in-law Anna Spera; and other loving family members. She was predeceased by her brothers, Michael Spera and Vincent Spera. Please consider making a donation in Jo's memory. Jo was a past member of LIADO (Le Italo-Americane di Oggi) and both of her grandkids are past LIADO scholarship recipients. Donate to the LIADO scholarship fund via PayPal at @liado1993 or make checks payable to LIADO, write "scholarship fund/in memory of Josephine Spagna" on the memo line, and send to LIADO, c/o Sue Alestra, P.O.

I want to make sweet potato pancakes/latkes for breakfast this weekend on a camping trip (quasi camping - we'll be in a rustic cabin). Is there a way to store pre-shredded sweet potato that will keep it from getting gross and weirdly oxidized?
I have not tried this with sweet potatoes, but I know that with white potatoes (especially, russet), if you submerge the shredded potatoes in a bowl of ice cold water they will keep nicely for several hours. In fact potato starch will accumulate in the bottom of the bowl, and can be added in place of or in addition to the flour the recipe calls for.
You must drain them well, and I often put them in a clean tea towel to wring any water out before continuing with the recipe.
what the best way to make chips from sweet potatos.

Misisipijska kultura (angleško Mississippian Culture) ali kultura tempeljskih gomil (od 8. n. št. do 15. stoletja n. št. oziroma na jugu do začetka 18. stoletja) je zadnja in najbolj razvita izmed kroga kultur Graditeljev gomil. Oblikovala se je med srednjim tokom Mississippija in področjem zahodno od Apalačev, torej iz južnejših področij dezintegrirane Hopewellske kulture, nanjo pa so imele povečan vpliv tudi kulturne prvine iz srednjeameriške civilizacije. Na višku se je raztezala od Mississippija proti vzhodu do Apalačev oziroma Floride ter od Velikih jezer do Mehiškega zaliva in je bila polietnična. Njeni začetki še niso zadovoljivo pojasnjeni. Med tem, ko je bilo za njene predhodnice iz kroga Graditeljev gomil značilno, da je lov ostajal najpomembnejša gospodarska dejavnost, je v kulturi Misisipijcev prevladalo poljedelstvo, zato se je lahko povečal obseg javnih del in obrtnih dejavnosti in lahko so se razvila tudi prava mesta. Glavne poteze je dobila med 8. in 10. stoletjem, vrhunec pa je dosegla med 11. in 12. stoletjem. V zadnji fazi, ki se je začela najkasneje konec 13. stoletja, je zašla v pospešeno propadanje. Njen propad še ni zadovoljivo pojasnjen. Ostanke Misisipijske kulture med Natchezi so na jugu še videli prvi španski in francoski prišleki.

Gospodarstvo in družbena ureditev

V primerjavi s predhodno Hopewellsko kulturo se je gospodarstvo poenotilo, tako da so povsod gojili enake pridelke. Lova nikoli niso povsem opustili , vendar je bila Misisipijska kultura že v 10. stoletju zlasti družba preprostega motičnega poljedelstva, ki je temeljilo na okopavanju s kremenastimi motikami. Intenzivno so pridelovali »tri sestre«- buče, koruzo in fižol- predvsem so pod vplivi iz Mehiškega zaliva uvedli pridelavo hitro rastoče vrste koruze. Pridelava teh poljščin je omogočila demografsko rast, pospešitev razvoja trgovine in obrti, nastanek mest in velikih arhitekturnih podvigov. Obrtniki so izdelovali leseno in kamnito orodje, koralde, okraske, kovinske izdelke iz bakra in zlata in obdelovali živalske kože. Razširila se je trgovina na večje razdalje, kjer so med seboj menjavali obrtne izdelke. Tako se je razvil skupen simbolni sistem .

Misisipijska kultura politično ni bila poenotena, še vedno je bila to rodovno-plemenska družba, omrežje velikih poglavarstev, ki so imela matrilinearno  teokratsko  družbeno ureditev z dednim moškim vladarjem. Z razvojem gospodarstva se je razslojenost okrepila, obstajali so aristokrati, trgovci, obrtniki in običajni ljudje. Tudi v kulturnih prežitkih med plemeni, ki so izšla iz Misisipijske kulture, je razvidna razslojenost in matrilinearnost, na primer med nekaterimi plemeni Sujev, nekaterimi Muskoki in med Natchezi.

Kulturni in tehnološki dosežki

Misisipijci so gradili velike vasi in celo mesta. Njihove hiše so bile krite s slamnato streho, večja središča so bila ograjena s palisadami. Predhodne kulture gozdnega obdobja so gradile predvsem grobne gomile in v na severozahodu Misisipijske kulture je vzporedno do 1300 n.š. še naprej obstajala tudi preprosta Kultura gomilnih upodobitev, ki se je tod v glavnem prekrivala z Misisipijsko. Glavna značilnost Misisipijske kulture pa je nastanek tempeljskih gomil, zaradi česar jo imenujemo tudi Kultura tempeljskih gomil. Misisipijske gomile so pogosto imele obliko piramide, imele so zravnane ploščadi, na katerih so gradili templje in bivališča elite. Velike gomile s ploščadmi oziroma terasami so bile razporejene okrog osrednjih trgov.

Gradnja gomil je presegla razsežnosti iz prejšnjih kultur, osrednja piramidna terasasta gomila Monk's Mound v Cahokiji , ki je sicer v višino dosegala le 30 metrov, je imela npr. večji tloris kakor Keopsova piramida v Egiptu. Tipičen vzorec mest in središč je bil obstoj velikih gomil in trga v središču naselja, ki so ga obkrožala manjša naselja z gomilami, okrog pa so obstajala naselja brez gomil. Velika središča so že imela več kot tisoč prebivalcev, najbolj poseljena med njimi je bila Cahokia, ostala večja oziroma pomembnejša naselja so razkrila arheološka najdišča Moundswille, Etowah in Spiro.

Poleg razvoja arhitekture, je Misispijska kultura napredovala v lončarjenju in keramični tehnologiji, izboljšala se je oborožitev, saj sta lok in puščica izpodrivala uporabo kopja . Obstoj osrednjih trgov s piramidalnimi gomilami, obstoj svetišč in bivalnih zgradb za elito, obredno žrtvovanje ljudi, keramični slog, umetniški slog upodabljanja jokajočih in krilatih oči, križev, človeških lobanj, vse to kaže na povezave s srednjeameriškimi vplivi, čeprav te povezave sicer niso zelo močne . Do teh vplivov bi morda lahko prišlo zaradi stika srednjeameriških trgovcev na daljavo z gozdnatim področjem vzhodnega predela Severne Amerike, vendar ni jasno kaj naj bi ti trgovci iskali tako daleč na severovzhodu .

Religija

Misisipijsko družbo so vodili teokrati, ki so hkrati nastopali kot posvetni in kot verski voditelji. Kult prednikov, povezan z gradnjo gomil, se je še ohranil, razvili so se tudi pravi templji. Pod vplivi iz Srednje Amerike so v obredju uporabljali podobe kač, lobanj, orlovskih bojevnikov in opravljali obrede, v katerih so žrtvovali in mučili ujetnike. Tudi od zakonca ter nekaterih ožjih družinskih članov umrlega vladarja so pričakovali prostovoljen pristanek na smrt z žrtvovanjem. Svečeniki v Cahokiji so obrede vodili iz vrha piramid.

Verjetno iz juga se je v Cahokijo razširil tako imenovani »Južni kult«, ki je bil povezan s čaščenjem sonca  in ta kult je bil zelo močan v središčih, ki so danes znana z imeni arheoloških najdišč kot npr. Spiro, Moundwille in Etowah. S tem kultom so povezane upodobitve sonca, križev, rok z očmi, jokajoče oči, človeške lobanje in dolge kosti in okraševanje pip za kajenje tobaka z živalskimi podobami . V »Južnem kultu« je veliko vlogo igral razkošni pogreb umrlih, posebej pa je poudaril vojaška junaštva. »Južni kult« je bil močan do 14. stoletja, kasneje se je v 15. stoletju ponovno okrepil. Ostanki »Južnega kulta« so preživeli npr. med Natchezi, ki so svojega vladarja imenovali »Veliko Sonce«, njegovo ženo pa »Bela žena«, pa tudi med nekaterimi Siouxi. V Misisipijski kulturi se pojavlja tudi obredna maska 'Dolgonosega božanstva', ki so jo nasledile podobne maske pri nekaterih plemenih Sioux.

Zaton

Okrog leta 1300 je kultura hitro prišla v razkroj. Približno v tem času propade Cahokia, prenehali so uporabljati slog Kulture gomilnih upodobitev. V 14. stoletju je začasno zatonil »Južni kult«. Zaradi dezintegracije po letu 1500 o ostankih te kulture lahko govorimo le pogojno, v povezavi s ponovno oživljenim »Južnim kultom«. V osrednjem delu propadajoče Misisipijske kulture se je razširil velik izpraznjen prostor. Njen zaton še ni zadovoljivo pojasnjen . V zgodnjih fazah propadanja epidemije, ki so jih po 1500 razširili beli priseljenci, niso obstajale. Nič ne kaže na vojaške poraze, čeprav je možno, da so se Misisipijci znašli v številnih vojnah. Možen odgovor na propadanje Misisipijske kulture je prenaseljenost v povezavi z izčrpavanjem zemlje, saj preprosto motično poljedelstvo ni poznalo oranja, ne gnojenja in ne požigalništva; Misisipijska kultura je bila življenjsko odvisna od kvalitete zemlje in od rečnih nanosov blata, s tem pa tudi od muhavega podnebja .

Lokalno oživljanje te kulture predstavlja ponovna okrepitev »Južnega kulta« v 15. stoletju, ki je bila povezana predvsem z Natchezi na jugu. Natchezi so ohranili bistvene prvine Misisipijcev: teokratsko vladavino, matrilinearnost, Južni kult in žrtvovanja ljudi, zato jih kljub močnim vplivom iz Mehiškega zaliva lahko vidimo kot zadnje nosilce Misisipijske kulture. V letih 1539-1542 se je z njimi srečal španski pustolovec Hernando de Soto, a je od njih odšel razočaran, ker tam ni našel zlata. Natcheze so zdesetkale bolezni in spopadi z belci. Konec 17. stoletja so si jih podvrgli Francozi, ki so jih zaradi upornosti leta 1731 skoraj uničili. Ostanki Natchezov so se asimilirali v okoliška plemena Muskokov (Creeki) in Cherokeejev .

Etnične podobe Misisipijske kulture

Ob propadanju Misisipijske kulture so na plano vzniknile številne lokalne kulture, v katerih je bilo včasih čutiti hopewellski pridih, in v katerih med drugim prepoznamo neposredne prednike Kadoancev na zahodu in Muskokov na jugovzhodu, med tem, ko je lokalna Misisipijska kultura Natchezov celo preživela do začetka 18.stoletja . Z Misisipijsko kulturo se bili povezani Siouxi , morda pa so tod bivali tudi predniki Cherokeejev in dela Irokezov. Algonkini morda niso bili del Misisipijske kulture in bi se na njeno območje lahko doselili šele po njenem propadu , čeprav nekateri njihove prisotnosti ne izključujejo. V opustela področja so se pričela naseljevati plemena s severa, ki so bila predvsem algonkinska nomadska in trgovska plemena. Okrog leta 1500 Algonkine že najdemo globoko na območju nekdanje Misisipijske kulture, jezikovna družina Sioux pa je bila razbita na področje zahodno od Mississippija in na območje Apalačev. Vse do osrednjih predelov so segale naselitve Muskokov, ob južnem Mississippiju pa so bivali Natchezi.

Misisipijska kultura sama vsaj večinoma ni bila povezana z Algonkini in Irokezi. Kulturni prežitki so se ohranili pri Muskokih-Creekih, Natchezih in pri nekaterih sioujskih plemenih, npr. Mandanih. Osrednjo kulturo Mississippija, katere središče je bila Cahokia, so najverjetneje razvila nekatera plemena Siouxev. Na to kaže več pomembnih pokazateljev: kot prvo je pred časom migracij večji del Muskokov živel v porečju Missisipija, o čemer priča njihovo besedišče- nasprotno pa Siouxi, katerih izročilo razkriva, da so nekoč živeli vzhodno od Mississippija, takega besedišča nimajo, kot drugo ima piktograf iz Misisipijske kulture sioujski karakter , kot tretje v nekaterih sioujskih plemenih kot so Dhegiha, Oneota, Osage, Winnebago, Hidatsa in Iowa nastopajo družbeni elementi, ki izvirajo neposredno iz Misisipijske kulture.

Lucas Moura fired a hat-trick as Tottenham continue to enjoy the comforts of their new home with a 4-0 Premier League win over Huddersfield that strengthens their top-four hopes.
Any fears they might have had about struggling to settle in at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium have been convincingly quashed after making it three wins from three there, with Moura earning himself a place in history with the first treble in the 62,062-seater arena.
Victor Wanyama put Spurs on the road to an easy afternoon as they have now scored seven goals and conceded none back on their own patch.
The lunchtime win sends Spurs back up to third and with three of their remaining six league games at their new stadium, Mauricio Pochettino's men will be confident of coming out on top of a thrilling four-way battle for Champions League qualification.
The routine nature of the win will also have been comforting to Pochettino, who was without the injured Harry Kane and Dele Alli and left man of the moment Son Heung-min on the bench ahead of the Champions League quarter-final second leg at Manchester City on Wednesday.
For Huddersfield, who saw Juninho Bacuna's free-kick tipped onto the crossbar, this was their 19th defeat in 21 matches as they count down the matches until their Premier League journey ends.
Even in the absence of Kane, Alli and Son, it was an exercise of attack versus defence from the off as Spurs were camped in Huddersfield's half, but with 10 men behind the ball the visitors were initially difficult to break down.
However, two goals in the space of three minutes eased any frustration and put Spurs in control.
Wanyama's first goal since February 2018 broke the deadlock in the 24th minute as Fernando Llorente allowed Ben Davies' pass to run into the path of the Kenyan midfielder, who rounded goalkeeper Ben Hamer and slotted home.
Moura swiftly made it 2-0 when he fired a low shot into the bottom corner after being played through by the impressive Moussa Sissoko.
Jon Stankovic had a chance to get Huddersfield back in it when he stabbed wide from a corner in a rare attack, but the traffic remained largely one way and Llorente passed up two good chances to extend the lead, the second a glancing header which went just wide.
The Spaniard, a beneficiary of Kane's injury, came even closer to finding the net early in the second half as he superbly controlled Juan Foyth's ball into the box and saw his instinctive volley rattle the crossbar.
Spurs had a string of chances to boost their goal difference but Moura drilled at Hamer, Llorente flashed another header wide and then also saw an effort blocked.
With Spurs beginning to get sloppy, Huddersfield posed more of a threat than they had done at any point and Steve Mounie drifted a header just wide before Hugo Lloris tipped Bacuna's curling free-kick onto the woodwork.
The hosts remained a constant threat, though, and after Christian Eriksen saw his deflected effort strike the post after a quick breakaway, Moura killed the game in the 87th minute when he slid home Eriksen's cross.
And he completed his treble in injury time, with a brilliant finish after being played through by substitute Son.

Loving an Alien by Angela Nicoară is a unique and timely exploration of what otherness means in an increasingly globalised world – and how love can take root and flourish in the rough terrain of an intercultural relationship.
Always returning to its central theme of the tension between love and alienation, and how simply being with a foreigner tends to change people profoundly, the book surveys a diverse range of nationalities, cultures, and personalities. It also finds time to dip its toe into the fields of history and anthropology, and even indulge in a whistle-stop tour of world cuisine. As one might expect, the result's a vibrant, motley tapestry that offers something for everyone: at once light-hearted and incisive.
The diverse range of geographic and cultural landscapes is also to Nicoară's great credit: she successfully illustrates that love is something that flows in all directions from the North, South, East, and West, with scant regard for the arbitrary limits we impose on ourselves. From the Congo to Indonesia, Cuba to Japan, Russia to Brazil, nearly every corner of the globe is represented, demonstrating the idiosyncrasies and the universality of love in one fell swoop.
However, the decision to tell Loving an Alien's stories only from the woman's side is a debatable one. Though the author's reasoning isn't immediately obvious, the book fortunately doesn't suffer much, thanks to the enormous diversity on display in other respects. Yet there's no denying this is a heavily gendered – not to say hetero-centric – broaching of the subject. It's an intriguing thought how the male version of the relationships recounted here might differ, or how the issue of homosexuality might amplify the cross-cultural questions.
The story of Diane and Ștefan from Burundi and Romania is one such episode crying out for the man's point of view. Meeting him as she did by chance in a Bujumbura market place, Diane made Ștefan wait two weeks before calling him to arrange another meeting: "I was not in a hurry," she coolly explains. While tantalising the reader with the raw emotion and tense excitement of germinating love, it also leaves us frustrated by a story half-told. What was running through Ștefan's mind as he waited for that call? Was he hopelessly infatuated? Did he worry himself sick day after day that she might never phone? Or had he forgotten all about her? Was it really "love at first sight" as Diane claims, or was Ștefan simply trying his luck? We'd love to know, but unfortunately we'll never find out.
That said, to dwell on the shortcomings of Loving an Alien is probably unfair, given the scope and depth it does go into. With a number of themes lurking just beneath the surface, this is an enjoyable and thought-provoking read that can be dipped in and out of at will. Those in international relationships will be able, of course, to form a special bond with this book – but it's an unapologetic celebration of love in all its complicated glory that will appeal on some level to any reader: even those who've not yet taken the plunge themselves into that tempestuous sea.
Angela Nicoară's Loving an Alien (2016) is available from Amazon Kindle, priced at £0.99. It is available on Monday 4 July, for one day, as a free download.
SUB-EDITOR Born and raised in Cambridge, Oliver studied International History & Politics at the University of Leeds before gaining his MA in Military History at King's College London where he conducted research into the development of guerilla warfare, and is now a member of the South Atlantic Council which promotes constructive, strategic dialogue between all parties involved in the Falklands/Malvinas sovereignty dispute. He has a personal interest in the Czech Republic, especially it's 20th century history, it's beer, it's Medieval castles, it's broader culture, and it's literature; Milan Kundera in particular.

Digital Yuan Transactions Overtakes Visa during Beijing Winter Olympics
Home » Digital Yuan Transactions Overtakes Visa during Beijing Winter Olympics
At the opening ceremony of the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, the number of transactions using the digital yuan greatly exceeded Visa, according to a Wall Street Journal reported on Wednesday.
At the time of the Beijing Winter Olympics, the Olympic Village, athletes and tourists can use cash, Visa cards or digital yuan for transactions.
Many businesses that support digital renminbi are outside the isolation circle, and there are also many self-service machines on-site at the Winter Olympics that allow people to exchange fiat currency for digital renminbi, thereby reducing human-to-human contact and effectively controlling the spread of COVID-19.
Beijing 2022 Olympic Organizing Committee says that:
"Replacing cash with digital yuan for payment can effectively reduce direct contact between people and the risk of the spread of Covid-19."
Although in China, dominant mobile payment platforms, Alipay and WeChat Pay, have become widely accepted payment methods by the public.
Relevant personnel indicated that the digital yuan or DCEP may be catastrophic for dominant mobile payment platforms, the "stickiness" of those platforms and their wide-ranging lifestyle offerings as the reason they might endure despite the advantages of a government-backed digital currency.
But due to the exclusive agreement with visas at the Winter Olympics, the Olympic Village, athletes and tourists can only use cash, Visa cards or digital yuan for transactions.
The usage of the digital yuan raised scepticism to the U.S., Senator Pat Toomey, a senior member of the U.S. Senate Banking Committee, requested the U.S. administration to closely examine the Chinese digital yuan's rollout during Beijing Winter Olympics.
As reported by blockchain.News on January 19, China's CBDC is growing at a fast pace as data released official from the PBOC financial markets department revealed the new legal tender has inked a total of 87.57 billion yuan ($13.68 billion) in transactions since public trials began.

VÉRITÉ | Echo
There's something to be said about an artist who can rack up over 300,000 plays of a debut single in just over 2 months. There's even more to be said when it's followed up with such a ferocious second effort. Not one to rest on her laurels though, Vérité looks set to make it a hat-trick as the New York resident returns with her third instalment, Echo. Toning things down a little from her latest track here we see another side to the rising star as a shift in production styles sees choppy percussion mix with the track's tribal basslines and swoonful vocals. Speaking of the release she goes on to say "Echo is a moment that summarizes the sentiment of the EP. It was an idea Elliot and I passed back and forth for a while. One day, we took the initial song, which was more of a flat, traditional pop song arrangement and literally chopped it up and removed all the instrumentation. We built it up from that place which left the vocal raw and exposed for the sentiment to shine through."
Echo EP Tracklist: 1. Strange Enough 2. Weekend 3. Echo 4. Heartbeat
You can pick up the 'Echo' EP from October 20th.

BOSTON — While Jacoby Ellsbury didn't receive the Johnny Damon treatment, the New York Yankees outfielder wasn't exactly greeted by too many cheers, either.
Ellsbury received mostly boos Tuesday before his first at-bat at Fenway Park as a member of the Yankees. The former Red Sox outfielder said before Tuesday's game he was unsure what type of crowd response he'd receive, but we now have an answer and it isn't all that flattering.
Ellsbury, who was drafted by the Red Sox in 2005, spent parts of seven seasons with Boston before signing a seven-year, $153 million contract with the Yankees over the offseason. The 30-year-old expressed great admiration for his former organization before Tuesday's game, but clearly, Red Sox fans aren't too thrilled about him jumping ship to join Boston's biggest rival.
The boo-to-cheer ratio before Ellsbury's first at-bat was roughly 75-to-25, if we're going to try to quantify things. The veteran did receive some love, however, when a video tribute was played on the Fenway Park big screen before the second inning.
Check out the reaction to Ellsbury's first Fenway at-bat with the Yankees in the video below. Your browser does not support iframes.

Mark Wahlberg Thinks Michael Bay Will End Up Directing 'Transformers 5'
By Ethan Anderton/June 15, 2015 6:00 am EST
For better or worse, the Transformers franchise is always mentioned in the same breath as director Michael Bay. The blockbuster filmmaker turned the toy line into a box office sensation full of his signature explosions, non-stop action, hot actors and actresses and senseless storytelling.
As of August of 2014, though, it sounded like Bay was going to pass the franchise on to a new filmmaker after Transformers: Age of Extinction arrived. But that may no longer be the case. Find out more after the jump.
Towards the end of last summer, it was reported that Bay was thinking about passing the next installment of the Transformers series onto a new director. Bay said he was interested in something new, saying, "There's kind of a new chapter, a new direction in movies I want to make. I have a lot of stories to tell. And it's about flexing new muscles."
But new franchise star Mark Wahlberg believes that Bay will actually end up behind the camera again. When asked if he thought Bay would come back for Transformers 5, Wahlberg told Collider, "Yes." But at the same time, he had no updates on the sequel either, "Akiva [Goldsman] and those guys are starting to write and break stories, and stuff like that. But [Michael] Bay is in Malta shooting Benghazi, and I'm in New Orleans shooting Deepwater. We'll get together when he gets back."
That's far from a sure thing, but we know there are big plans in store for the Transformers franchise as an army of writers has been hired over the past couple weeks (including some female writers). Paramount hopes to build a whole Transformers big screen universe, one that might allow for spin-offs for characters like Bumblebee.
Last we heard, Hasbro was expecting Paramount Pictures to have Transformers 5 in theaters by 2017, and currently that would likely fit into both Whalberg and Bay's schedules. Either way, we know Wahlberg will be back for the sequel, and Bay will at least executive produce. Producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura previously was apprehensive about replacing Bay, though he knew it would happen at some point, and told us:
"I guess if you had to think about who would be the next one, my guess is it would be somebody who probably was a kid who watched the show as a kid because then they'll have a fundamental understanding of the D.N.A. in a way. And are able to bring that thing that you have when you've grown up with it. It sinks into you in a different way."
Honestly, getting a new director on board this franchise would be the only way to get me excited about this franchise again. It needs a new approach and a director who actually cares about a coherent story to go along with action spectacle. But we'll just have to wait and see how all this Transformers development plays out.
Do you want Michael Bay directing Transformers 5? Who else should direct a Transformers movie?

SEC Football Weekend Preview: Week 6 - Response Saturday
Whether it was a monumental win or a devastating loss, several SEC teams have the opportunity to provide a meaningful result in response to last weekend's games.
By davislwilliams Oct 9, 2015, 3:00pm EDT
Share All sharing options for: SEC Football Weekend Preview: Week 6 - Response Saturday
No. 7 LSU (4-0) vs. South Carolina (2-3)
Watch: 3:30 p.m. ET, ESPN
Line: LSU (-18.5)
It won't be the first time a game's location has been changed due to a natural disaster. It won't be the first time it has involved LSU either. In 2005, LSU moved its home opener against Arizona State to Tempe after Hurricane Katrina. The Gamecocks will now be forced to move their highly anticipated match-up with the Tigers to Baton Rouge. LSU's Death Valley presents a daunting challenge for anyone. The Tigers have won 38 of their last 41 homes games there. The Gamecocks have lost 11 of their last 12 there, the last coming in 2012, and have suffered some kind of awful week in Columbia thanks to the floods. Leonard Fournette leads the nation with 864 yards rushing (8.7 per attempt) and 11 touchdowns. He is just 170 yards away from his rushing total last season. He has run for 200+ yards for three consecutive games, an SEC record, so he'll likely pass his total on Saturday against a Gamecock defense that allows 170 yards per game on average. With all that's going on around them, South Carolina is hoping to avoid its worst start in conference play since they finished the SEC slate winless in 1999. Starting quarterback Lorenzo Nunez has been sidelined with a shoulder injury but is expected to play some Saturday. If somehow, someway, the Gamecocks defense can force LSU to pass, that'll be the way to beat them. The Tigers have the lamest passing attack in the conference, averaging just 95.5 yards per game. QB Brandon Harris was 4-of-14 last weekend against Eastern Michigan. Prediction: LSU 28, South Carolina 10
No. 14 Ole Miss (4-1) vs. New Mexico State (0-4)
Watch: 12:00 p.m. ET, SEC Network
Line: Ole Miss (-43.5)
Ole Miss isn't as beat up with injuries as Michigan State but a lot has changed for the Rebels in the last two weeks. Starting safety Tony Conner is out for at least a few weeks with a torn ligament in his knee and starting linebacker C.J. Johnson had surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his knee, forcing him to miss up to six weeks. Star left tackle Laremy Tunsil has not played a game due to an ongoing NCAA investigation. The Rebs are sorting things out along the offensive line, at linebacker and in the secondary now. That won't matter this weekend however. Before Ole Miss went to Gainesville, they boasted arguably the best offense in college football. They'll get back on that same track as they face a New Mexico State team that is allowing 45.8 points per game, third most in the country. Prediction: Ole Miss 56, New Mexico State 13
Tennessee (2-3) vs. No. 19 Georgia (4-1)
Watch: 3:30 p.m. ET, CBS
Line: Georgia (-3)
Georgia will need a strong response after their dismantling at the hands of Alabama. On the road in Knoxville, against a reeling Tennessee team, sets up nicely. Before the season, many thought this game may decide the SEC East. The Vols, however, have blown two-touchdown leads in three of their last four games. They rebounded well last year after starting 3-5, winning four of their last five but the losses this year have been such heart-breakers after high expectations. Georgia has won the last five meetings between the two programs but the last two games were by a field goal margin. After the beat down, will Greyson Lambert's confidence be shot? He was pulled from the game against the Tide for Brice Ramsey and he didn't play well either. A solid Georgia response will coincide with Lambert picking himself back up. Prediction: Georgia 21, Tennessee 17
Mississippi State (3-2) vs. Troy (1-3)
Watch: 4:00 p.m. ET, SEC Network
Line: Mississippi State (-30.5)
The Bulldogs sort of made it interesting at College Station but Texas A&M always seemed to be pretty in control of the game. Dak Prescott has had another great year as MSU's signal caller. He hasn't thrown an interception in his last 176 attempts and their ground game only seems to work if he's running the ball. Mississippi State shouldn't have too much trouble on the ground Saturday as Troy's defense allows 4.2 yards per rush. Troy's offense has only scored 42 points combined against three FBS teams so the Bulldogs shouldn't have their hands full on that end either. MSU linebacker Richie Brown is an emerging player, he's had 11 or more tackles in four of his five games. Prediction: Mississippi State 30, Troy 10
No. 8 Alabama (4-1) vs. Arkansas (2-3)
Line: Alabama (-16.5)
Alabama returns home after a huge win against Georgia. Will they come down off that high to easily handle Arkansas? The Razorbacks were leading after three quarters last season before Alabama took a 14-13 lead in the fourth quarter to finish them off. This isn't the same Arkansas team as last year but their offense looked close to that mold last weekend. Alex Collins and Rawleigh Williams combined for 254 yards on the ground in Knoxville. Alabama has won the last eight games in the series and looks to make it nine Saturday night. Prediction: Alabama 28, Arkansas 13
Missouri (4-1) vs. No. 11 Florida (5-0)
Line: Florida (-5)
After Ole Miss beat Alabama, the Rebels struggled with Vanderbilt at home. After Florida's big win over Mississippi, could we seem the same kind of let down this week at Missouri? The Tigers will once again start true freshman Drew Lock. He started in place of suspended starter Maty Mauk last weekend and finished 21-of-28 for 136 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions. The Gator defense is much, much better than South Carolina's unit so Lock will be tested against one of the country's better back-fours on Saturday night. The Missouri offense found a ground game against USC, rushing for a season-high 163 yards. They'll need a similar performance to balance Lock's second start. Will Grier will need to continue his phenomenal play and steady the Gators as they hit the road. Prediction: Missouri 14, Florida 13

Q: What are the qualities a good English teacher? It's my first time using this site. I have a question that's been on my mind for awhile.
What do you think are some qualities of a good English teacher?
Context:
Currently I'm still pursuing my education at university. Over a period of time, I realized that I quite enjoy the process of teaching. My original goal was to teach philosophy or something related to my degree (Business Analytics) but my country doesn't really have any avenues for me to teach these subjects. My English skills have been pretty alright and I've managed to score good grades for English papers before coming to university (I know that good grades don't mean that you will be a good teacher).
I'm actually staying in Singapore and English is actually a primary language for most of us. However our language capabilities are nowhere near countries such as the US or UK. Currently I'm in the process of getting into my country's teaching course so that I can be a licensed teacher and teach in a secondary school (students will be between 12-16 years old).
Although I'm sure that I will be happy if I choose this route as my career I'm afraid that I may be letting my students down by not being that good of an English teacher.
Any advice would be great!
PS: Sorry if this isn't the right page to ask this question. I'm not too sure where else I can find a community like this. Also I've actually asked this question in the English Language & Usage exchange but I've been told I might have better luck here instead!

İkizdere is a town in Rize Province in the Black Sea region of Turkey. It is the seat of İkizdere District. Its population is 1,875 (2021).

Etymology
Formerly known as Dipotamos and Kuray-ı Sab, İkizdere means "twin streams" in both the Pontic Greek and Turkish languages, and indeed the Çamlık and Cimil rivers meet here to form the İkizdere.

Demographics
There are four ethnic groups in the district: Greeks, Turks, Laz and Hemshin. The non-Turkic natives converted to Islam during the Ottoman period and during the population exchange between Greece and Turkey, the natives stayed in the area.

Geography
This is hilly countryside inland from the Black Sea, forest-covered steep mountainside separated by narrow valleys, with areas of high pasture. The İkizdere is formed from streams running out of the Rize Mountains and continues down to the Black Sea, it is dammed for hydro-electric power and for irrigation. There is snow on the high peaks and much glacial formation. The climate is typical of the Black Sea region i.e. it frequently rains. There is broad-leaf forest at lower elevations and pine higher up.

İkizdere is an agricultural district, growing tea on the hillsides and potatoes in the valley, and now some kiwi fruit are being planted also. Cattle and sheep are grazed on the hillsides, going up to the high pastures (yayla) in summer. Beekeeping is another important source of income, particularly in the village of Anzer. And this very attractive countryside is now attracting tourists, on trekking holidays. However, on the whole İkizdere is not a wealthy region and the younger generations migrate to Turkey's larger cities in search of jobs.

The town of İkizdere is on the river bank,  from the city of Rize on the road to Erzurum.

History
See Rize Province for a history of this area, once part of the Byzantine Empire and later the Empire of Trebizond, during which periods there was a monastery there in İkizdere.

In 67 BCE, Pompey the Great led a Roman military campaign against the Heptakometes today's ikizderelian Ancestors in what is presently known as İkizdere in Turkey's Rize province. According to the Roman historians who were traveling with the army, the Heptakometes were barbarians living in the İkizdere valley. They were familiar with the effects of Mad Honey, they set out honey pots for the invading army to find. Most of the Roman soldiers consumed the honey and became intoxicated, then they were suddenly attacked and killed by the Heptakometes. Over 1800 Roman soldiers were killed during the attack. Mad Honey was the world's first known biological weapon to be used in battle by Heptakomets.

İkizdere was occupied by Russia for two years during the First World War.

NEXT REGULAR BOARD HEARING – FEBRUARY 22, 2018.


The role of local governments has been evolving with increasing responsibilities and capacity gaps remain and need to be addressed. Local governments in South-East Europe (SEE) are particularly challenged by the status of decentralization, mismatch of revenue and expenditure management, absence of infrastructure investments, weak local institutions, weak mechanisms of social accountability, increased need to combat corruption, frequent shifts in political structures, and low speed of institutional reforms.
While global in scope, the Program is targeted at the Western Balkan countries, including Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Kosovo, Macedonia, Montenegro and Serbia.
UPP Phase I (2011-2014) was shaped by the demand of municipalities and local government associations and was focused on key dimensions of local government, including municipal finance, urban planning and land management, urban governance/anti-corruption, and social accountability. Through the sustained effort of providing practical tools that met actual needs, UPP I has achieved a strong take-up by municipalities in each of the four program areas.
(iii) use of practical hands-on diagnostic tools and participatory processes.
II. Capacity building activities focusing on four key dimensions of interest to local governments, including: (i) municipal finance, (ii) urban planning and land management, (iii) urban governance/ anti-corruption, and (iv) social accountability.
III. Support to the Network of Associations of Local Authorities of South-East Europe (NALAS) to become a regional knowledge and e-Learning hub in order to ensure the flow of knowledge and sustained learning impact beyond the UPP.
The aim of the Second Phase of the Program is to scale up the use of LG diagnostic tools and to anchor them as part of the municipal practice; expand citizen engagement and integrity building agenda and support urban resilience in SEE cities; foster involvement of different departments (finance, planning, technical) and civil society to integrate the different tools and approaches at local level; foster central-local government dialogue for improved policy making; support local governments in the implementation of the Action Plans developed in UPP I; and leverage partnership for greater impact and reach.
