In honor of MLK Day, I wanted to talk about healing the country's divisions, since he was so instrumental in healing our racial divisions. It seems we are divided among new lines.
Racial Lines: It seems like this is mostly in our past, but still part we must address. The racial divides seem to be more real, I think, because of tendencies of certain races to belong to certain political parties or religions. Because we organize ourselves to people who think like us and attend the same church, we seem to have some racial pockets.
Elites and Average: This isn't that some people are actually elite, but the coasts talk about the middle of the country as if the people there are bumpkins. Meanwhile, average people in the Midwest and West look at the coasts as stuck up. I think this is a very big divider in our country, and a place where most of the issues we have stem from.
Political: Republicans and Democrats are at each other's throats…. like usual. However, it seems as though the rhetoric is elevated. Again, this seems to be happening due to disparities in political alignment between regions. It's easier to hate the other party when you don't know many, or any, people who you disagree with.

La contea di Holmes ( in inglese Holmes County ) è una contea dello Stato dell'Ohio, negli Stati Uniti. La popolazione al censimento del 2000 era di 38 943 abitanti. Il capoluogo di contea è Millersburg.

La contea fu formata nel 1824 da parte delle contee di Coshocton, Tuscarawas e Wayne e organizzata l'anno seguente. Prese il nome da Andrew Holmes, un ufficiale ucciso nella guerra del 1812.

La contea di Holmes, che è circa l'80% di Amish, ospita la seconda più grande comunità di Amish (dopo la Contea di Lancaster, Pennsylvania) del mondo, ciò attira molti visitatori.

Storia
La contea di Holmes fu formata il 20 gennaio 1824 da parti delle contee di Coshocton, Tuscarawas e Wayne.
Prese il nome da Andrew Holmes, un ufficiale della Guerra del 1812.
Nel 1863, durante la Guerra Civile, si verificarono numerosi piccoli scontri con la coscrizione, principalmente nelle aree di lingua tedesca. La contea di Holmes all'epoca era una roccaforte democratica, dominata dai coloni olandesi della Pennsylvania, insieme a molti immigranti tedeschi.
Con il passaggio della legge sulla coscrizione nel marzo 1863, i politici della contea di Holmes denunziarono il Congresso e il presidente Lincoln come dispotici, affermando che il servizio militare forzato era poco diverso dalla schiavitù.
La coscrizione era stata comune nelle loro ex-patrie tedesche ed era uno dei motivi per cui si erano trasferiti in America.
Le proteste violente esplosero a giugno, e continuarono fino a quando l'Esercito dell'Unione non marciò nella contea e dichiarò la legge marziale.

/ WPPh Awards Days: Interviews
During the 2011 World Press Photo Awards Days, held in Amsterdam on 6 and 7 May 2011, CPN took the chance to conduct filmed interviews with six out of the many Canon photographers who won awards in the 2011 World Press Photo Contest to find out about how they felt about their photographs winning in the prestigious international contest.
Please click on the film window above to watch a film of six of the winning Canon photographers explaining how they feel about their work winning in the 2011 World Press Photo Contest.
The winning photographers who took time out to talk to CPN were Australian photographer Adam Pretty (Getty Images), who took 1st place in the Sports Stories category; Irish photographer Andrew McConnell (Panos Pictures), who came first in two categories – Portraits Stories and Arts and Entertainment Singles; US photographer Benjamin Lowy (Reportage by Getty Images), who won the Nature Stories category; Italian photographer Marco Di Lauro (Reportage by Getty Images), who won Contemporary Singles; Irish photographer Seamus Murphy (VII Photo), who came second in the People in the News Singles category; and Danish photographer Mads Nissen (Berlingske), who came third in the Daily Life Stories category of the World Press Photo Contest.
Adam Pretty's sports portfolio from 2010 secured his prize, whilst Andrew McConnell's two prizes came courtesy of a series of images called 'The last Colony', that depicted the lives of the people of Western Sahara, and a single image of Josephine Mpongo practising the cello in Kinshasa, DR Congo. Benjamin Lowy covered the story of the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico with a series of close-up shots of 'Oil on Water', whilst Marco Di Lauro's single image of meat and offal for sale for sale in Gadabedji, Niger reflected the food crisis in that country. Seamus Murphy's well observed portrait of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange won him his award, whilst Mads Nissen gained his prize for a series of shots, entitled 'In the Name of Victoria', that told the story of how a Danish businesswoman tried to help a young Nepalese child suffering from hydrocephalus ('water on the brain').

Fighters To Watch At 2018 IBJJF No Gi Worlds: Lightweight
By Fanatics Authors, December 11, 2018
With IBJJF No-Gi Worlds in one week, let's take a second and look at some of the most high profile competitors who will be trying to become a no-gi champion.
Marcio Andre
Marcio Andre is a former world champion at this event, and has medaled at every major tournament on the IBJJF circuit. After a bronze medal in the gi this year at worlds (after taking eventual champ Jamil Hill-Taylor to a razor-close decision), and a European championship, the Nova Uniao rep could be the class of the field. He beat Grippo in the European finals, and has victories over Paulo Miyao, Renato Canuto, Rubens Charles, and Davi Ramos to his credit.
Gianni Grippo
Gianni is coming into this tournament with a lot of momentum, after putting together a lot of tough wins to capture first place at the Kasai 4 tournament. He beat Tanquinho Mendes, Paulo Miyao, Kim Terra, and Ethan Crelinsten, and that was all in the same night! Gianni has always had a great guard, but a recent focus on top game and wrestling has been paying big results.

Dustin Akbari
After a recent strong showing at the ADCC East Coast trials, Akbari is one of the favorites in this tournament for the podium. Strong wrestling, a heavy top game, and an active guard let him punch his ticket to next year's ADCC, and Akbari has never had more momentum and fire than he has now. Can he keep it going?
Jeremiah Vance
Even if you don't think he'll win the bracket (and he has a ton of skill to do just that), every Vance fight is worth watching for action alone. Every fight seems to bring another highlight for the 10th Planet fighter. Can he get to his wicked rubber guard? If so, he's got a big advantage over everyone.
Gordon and his strength and conditioning coach Nathalia Santoro are here to show you how to reach new heights and feel fitter than ever before
PJ Barch
Another 10th Planet standout, Barch actually breaks their traditional mold by adding in a strong wrestling pedigree. Even though he has usually been found in EBI-style submission only matches, Barch has had a very active and successful year. With the 10th Planet team looking to break through and put athletes on the podium, can Barch's wrestling make him their first world champion?
Johnny Tama is coming into this tournament with history in mind, looking to become the first adult black belt champion from Ecuador. He hasn't captured a world title yet for himself, but his resume of wins includes Michael Liera, Joao Miyao, Dante Leon, and Dustin Akbari, so he's been winning at this level consistently.
One of the top Japanese BJJ talents of his generation, this Marco Barbosa black belt is ending his most busy year yet at black belt with a strong showing. Iwasaki usually wants to get on top and start pressuring through the guard, and he's ridden this strategy to a lot of success. In just 2018, he's beaten Gilbert Burns, Renato Canuto, and Edwin Najmi!
A 2-time runner up at No-Gi Worlds, Freitas wants to make a run deep into the bracket and put himself over the hump to first place. In 2014, he won the No-Gi Pan American Championships, and has also won American Nationals and medaled in the gi at Pan Ams.

Sara Miranda Maxson Cobb (née Sara Miranda Maxson; also known as Sara M. Maxson-Cobb; September 30, 1858 – January 24, 1917) was a 19th-century American art teacher, artist, and writer from the U.S. state of New York. She served as director of the Art School of the Maine Wesleyan Seminary and Female College at Kents Hill, Maine, and taught drawing at Colorado State University.

Early years and education
Sara Miranda Maxson was born in Geneva, New York, September 30, 1858. She was the daughter of Dr. Edwin R. and Lucy Lanphear Maxson. She traces her lineage on her father's side to the Maxtons, of Maxton-on-the-Tweed, in Scotland. Her father's family came to America in 1701, after having been settled in England for generations. Her father, Edwin Robinson Maxson, A.M., M.D., LL.D., a graduate of Jefferson Medical College, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, had been a lecturer on medical subjects in the colleges of Philadelphia and Geneva. His Practice of Medicine and Hospitals: British, French and American were well-known books. Her mother, Lucy Potter Lamphere, was of French-English ancestry.

In 1864, the family removed to Adams, New York, where Cobb spent much of her childhood. Her earliest education was received from her parents. When very young, she started writing for amateur papers. At the age of eight, happening to read an article on drawing, she tried her pencil at reproducing the simple cuts given in it for copying, with a success so surprising to herself that she then and there resolved to become an artist. Thereafter, she received training in drawing.  In 1872, Cobb entered the Hungerford Collegiate Institute at Adams, where she studied for two years. The family removed to Syracuse. New York, in 1874, where, for five years, she studied in the public schools of that city, graduating at the Syracuse High School in 1879. For the next four years she was in the Liberal Art College of Syracuse University, where she graduated with the degree of Ph. B., in 1883. She then took up the painting course in the Fine Art College of the university, graduating with the degree of Bachelor of painting in 1886. In 1890. Syracuse Universitv granted her the degree of PhD, on examination in Art History.  She was a member of the Alpha chapter of the college society, Alpha Phi.

Career
Through the late Chancellor C. N. Sims of the university, she obtained the position of director of the Art School of the Maine Wesleyan Seminary and Female College at Kents Hill, Maine, a position she held from 1886 to 1890. During that time, in 1888, she was one of a large party to visit the United Kingdom and France.

In 1890, she was married to Professor Herbert Edgar Cobb, a member of the faculty at the Maine Wesleyan Seminary and a graduate of the Wesleyan University at Middletown, Connecticut. In the same year, her husband was called to a position on the faculty of the Colorado State University. At this university Mrs. Cobb was a teacher of drawing from 1890 to 1892. In the latter year, she and her husband removed to Chicago, Illinois, where her husband was employed for a time in the Extension Department of the University of Chicago, afterwards receiving a position on the faculty of the Lewis Institute, where he headed the Mathematical Department. In 1906 and 1907, her husband had leave of absence from the Lewis Institute, to pursue higher mathematical studies at the University of Berlin. Maxson-Cobb accompanied her husband on this trip, and taking art lectures at the University of Berlin.

Personal life
Cobb was engaged in philanthropic work and the study of social science since 1892. A strong literary taste and sympathy for active philanthropic and Christian enterprise led her into many additional types of work. Her numerous poems, stories told in verse, translations from the German, travel correspondence, and articles on art subjects were included in prominent publications. Cobb was a believer in united action, and in the many societies to which she belonged, missionary, temperance, art, literary and scientific, she was recognized as a superior organizer and leader. Geology, microscopy and photography claimed a share of her attention, and she had an interesting collection of specimens of her own finding, slides of her own mounting and photographs of her own taking. She delighted in music and had a cultivated contralto voice.

Cobb died January 24, 1917, from apoplexy at the Frances Willard Hospital in Chicago, Illinois, after a very brief illness, and was buried in Union Cemetery, Adams Center, New York.

Top 10 Reasons to Take a Mexico Vacation
There's no better time to start planning your 2012 winter vacation than during these warm summer months. However, with so many dreamy tropical places available and the publicity surrounding the drug violence in northern Mexico, vacation planning has become a little more complicated.
Many travel destinations in Mexico are still safe, among them the Yucatan Peninsula in the far western section of the country. Mexico is full of history, cultural attractions and natural wonders that are too good to miss. Consider these top 10 reasons for taking a Mexico vacation:
1.) Cheap Vacation
There has never been a better time in history to vacation in Mexico, and despite negative media coverage, you will not be risking your safety. As a result of the worldwide economic crisis, vacation packages in Mexico are at an all-time low, but value is at an all-time high. Affordable rates are now available at luxury resorts and beach hotels throughout Mexico.
2.) Beautiful Beaches
Mexico beaches draw travelers from near and far for their incomparable beauty. From the Pacific Ocean to the Caribbean Sea, Mexican oceans are among the most popular places for tanning, swimming, and practicing water sports because of the waves and warmth. Some of the most exquisite beaches in Mexico are the Caribbean beaches along the Riviera Maya and Cancun coast.
3.) Snorkeling & Diving
The oceans that surround the coasts of Mexico contain fascinating tropical fish and marine life, including endangered sea turtles and coral reefs, making them ideal for snorkeling and scuba diving. Part of the world's second largest reef − the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef System − lies in the Caribbean Sea near Cancun, Cozumel, Isla Mujeres, and Playa del Carmen. Nearby Punta Nizuc National Marine Park contains an underwater museum which acts as an artificial coral reef which was created in order to promote natural reef conservation.
4.) Archaeological Sites & Ruins
Mexico has a long and diverse cultural heritage dating back to Pre-Columbian Mesoamerica with the Olmec, Toltec, Aztec, and Mayan civilizations. Over time, many of their ancient cities have been discovered and preserved as now accessible archaeological sites. The Yucatan Peninsula features many incredible Mayan ruins, temples, and pyramids in Tulum, Coba, and Chichen Itza, among others.
5.) Nature Parks
Natural wonders ranging from mountains and woods to cenotes and rainforests exist in Mexico, but many are diminishing from human development and pollution, making conservation essential. Mexico's nature preserves and conservation programs are not only inspirational but also practical and include Tres Rios Nature Park, the Sian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve, and mangrove reforestation and sea turtle rescue programs.
6.) Cuisine & Cocktails
For delicious cuisine, Mexico is the place to go. Authentic Mexican food combines a creative blend of flavors, from sweet-spicy to sour-savory, such as Mole Poblano which contains chocolate and chile. The Yucatan Peninsula's Yucatecan cuisine is a unique mix of European, Middle Eastern, Caribbean, Cuban, and Mayan styles. Mexico's numerous types of tequilas are also a tasty treat.
7.) Family Vacation Fun
In a country that officially honors its youth on Children's Day (El Día Del Niño), April 30th, there are many fun things to do. Most Mexican resorts offer supervised kids' programs with daily activities for children and families, including beach and water sports. Mexico's many geological and cultural attractions, such as Xcaret eco park, Xel-Ha, and Xplor adventure park provide tons of family fun.
8.) Shops & Markets
Variety is the spice of life, and Mexico has both variety and spice. Brimming with diversity from Indian origins, Spanish colonization, and foreign migration, its rich cultural heritage is reflected in traditional Mexican art and Mexican pottery, such as the renowned Talavera. Most cities also contain trendy shopping malls, upscale international boutiques, and authentic jewelry stores.
9.) Mexican Architecture
Mexico's cultural legacy is reflected in its historic architecture, from ancient Aztec and Mayan temples and pyramids to Spanish colonial cities. Spanish rule influenced a uniquely Mexican style of haciendas, cathedrals, and monuments, found primarily in Merida (Yucatan), Chiapas, Queretaro, Guanajuato, and Oaxaca. Cultural museums and performances can be found throughout Mexico.
10.) The People
The Mexican people are nearly always identified as one of the top reasons why travelers enjoy a Mexico vacation − and for good reason. After centuries of oppression, these resilient people are among the friendliest, most appreciative, helpful, and hospitable in the world. If Disneyland is considered "the happiest place on earth," then Mexico is definitely "the friendliest place on earth."

The people, the food, the beaches, the great historical sites. Mexico is a great destination for families! Good luck to anyone planning such an incredible trip!

I will certainly agree with all the reasons but especially with the people. I'm from New Orleans and we are supposed to be the friendliest but the people I met in Cozumel last year were the best ever.

David & Jackie: Thank you for taking the time to comment on this article. It's always refreshing to hear others' opinions & experiences! I agree: Mexico has so much to offer travelers, and the people are the icing on the cake. =)


Enceladus (visible in the lower-left corner of the image) is but a speck before enormous Saturn, but even a small moon can generate big waves of excitement throughout the scientific community. Enceladus, only 313 miles (504 kilometers) across, spurts vapor jets from its south pole.
The presence of these jets from Enceladus has been the subject of intense study since they were discovered by Cassini. Their presence may point to a sub-surface water reservoir.
This view looks toward the unilluminated side of the rings from about 2 degrees below the ringplane. The image was taken with the Cassini spacecraft wide-angle camera on Oct. 20, 2014 using a spectral filter which preferentially admits wavelengths of near-infrared light centered at 752 nanometers.
The view was obtained at a distance of approximately 589,000 miles (948,000 kilometers) from Saturn and at a Sun-Saturn-spacecraft, or phase, angle of 26 degrees. Image scale is 35 miles (57 kilometers) per pixel.

New plan issued to help smaller firms raise funds
Ouyang Shijia
Updated: Dec 31,2021 07:14 China Daily
China announced a new plan to promote the sharing and application of credit information in a bid to boost financing of the vast group of micro, small and medium-sized enterprises.
The new plan, released on Dec 29 by the General Office of the State Council, will give full play to credit information's role in increasing financing of MSMEs, which will help promote the establishment of a long-term mechanism to make financing for MSMEs easier and affordable, officials said.
Zhao Chenxin, secretary-general of the National Development and Reform Commission, said the plan is part of the government's efforts to support market entities and deal with downward pressure on the economy.
"Guided by the objective of supporting banks and other financial institutions to better serve the MSMEs, the plan will help collect various types of corporate credit information … make financing for MSMEs easier and affordable, relieve their burdens and boost their development," Zhao said during the release on Dec 29 in Beijing.
The new plan requires strengthening the sharing and integration of credit information related to taxes, social insurance premiums and real estate, deepening development and utilization of credit information and protecting the legitimate rights and interests of information providers.
More efforts will also be made to improve the credit evaluation index system for MSMEs and establish an information security management system.
Chen Hongwan, director of the Department of Fiscal and Financial Affairs of the NDRC, highlighted the need to improve sharing and application of credit information to help market entities in financing, with a focus on key fields such as production and corporate operations.
"Targeting woes affecting MSMEs' financing, the new plan will help solve problems such as lack of effective mortgages and the information asymmetry between banks and enterprises," Chen said. "It will help alleviate difficulties for MSMEs, ensure them better access to loans and mitigate the risks of nonperforming loans for financial institutions."
The NDRC data showed China has launched a national credit service platform to facilitate SME financing, covering more than 2,000 financial institutions and over 13.8 million enterprises in 103 places.
Zhao from the NDRC called for more efforts from local governments to support the development of MSMEs, saying local governments will play a key role in boosting lending to them.
Local governments should make a big push to build a local financing and credit service platform, strengthen the collection and sharing of credit information and increase policy support for financing of MSMEs, the plan said.
Looking ahead, the country will make more efforts to maintain the growth of loans for micro and small business, said Mao Hongjun, an official from the Department of Financial Inclusion of the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission.
More efforts will also be made to encourage banks to step up lending to micro and small businesses in key fields including independent and controllable industrial and supply chains, technological innovation, green development and foreign trade, and provide targeted financial services for MSMEs that specialize in niche sectors.
Yang Haiping, a researcher at the securities and futures research institute of Central University of Finance and Economics, spoke highly of recent government measures to support MSME development, saying the government should also focus on creating a better business environment, increasing policy support and boosting innovation-driven development.
When it comes to offering MSMEs financial services, the key focus will be boosting technology-driven innovation in financial services and building an incubation and support mechanism for MSMEs, said Yang, who is also general manager of the strategic research department of the Bank of Inner Mongolia.

You'll Never Guess When They're Releasing the New Todd Haynes Movie
AWAAAAAAAAAAARDS SEEEEEEEEAAAAAASON!
Yes, Amazon Studios and Roadside Attractions have announced the most predictable release date imaginable for Wonderstruck, the latest from Todd "Quite Possibly Our Finest Working Filmmaker" Haynes: right in that sweet spot where Best Picture winners keep landing. Variety reports that Haynes's Carol follow-up will hit theaters in limited release on October 20, and will go wide in mid-November. Hey, just for funsies, when did the last five Academy Award winners for Best Picture slide into limited release?
Moonlight: October 21
Spotlight: November 6
Birdman: October 17
12 Years a Slave: October 18
Argo: October 12
(There's this weird accepted wisdom among distributors and studios that you put out your serious Oscar contenders as close to the end of the year as possible, since Academy voters have the collective memory of a fruit fly, but the last Best Picture winner to hit theaters in December was Million Dollar Baby, in 20-frickin-04.)
It's not like this one wasn't already among our most anticipated movies of the year: it is, again, a new Todd Haynes movie, based on a book by Brian Selznick (whose work also inspired Hugo, Scorsese's most unexpectedly delightful picture in recent memory). It's also his fourth collaboration with Julianne Moore.
Wonderstruck will premiere later this month at the Cannes Film Festival, so you know what that means: this year, awards season starts in May! (Jumps out of fifth-floor window.) And who knows, maybe this year, his masterpiece won't get screwed.
