While Arizona’s most populated areas have closely managed groundwater for decades, 80% of the state has no laws protecting how much is taken from the ground. In places like Cochise County, unregulated large-scale irrigation by corporate farms is already causing a crisis as household wells run dry.
“People really need to understand groundwater is a finite resource,” said Kathleen Ferris, a researcher and former policymaker who spent 45 years developing groundwater legislation in Arizona. “If you keep depleting it, it will not be there when you need it. Once it’s gone, it’s gone.”
The Colorado River is Arizona’s largest renewable water source, providing 36% of its supply each year. Most of this — 70% — is used for agriculture. For centuries, farmers in the Southwest have used river water to irrigate crops. But hotter temperatures, less predictable snowpack, and lower soil moisture are depleting the Colorado at an alarming rate. From 2000 to 2019, its flow was 18% less than the previous century’s average, and studies show its decline could reach 35% to 50% by the end of this century.

Research showed that a booster dose enhanced the antibody response to the vaccine in certain immunocompromised people. That would make for a fourth shot at least six months after completing the third mRNA vaccine dose. At this time, the CDC does not have a recommendation about the fourth shot. People should talk to their doctors to determine if it is necessary, the CDC says. People who are immunocompromised who got the single-dose Johnson & Johnson shot should get a booster at least two months after their initial vaccine. People who choose a Moderna vaccine as a booster, even if they received a different vaccine as the first dose, should get the half-dose sized shot that was authorized as a booster for Moderna’s vaccine, the CDC said.

Parkway Center City Middle College, the first-of-its-kind in the state, is a program that offers many first-generation college-bound students the opportunity to earn an associate degree in liberal arts from the Community College of Philadelphia (CCP), while also earning their high school diploma.
Donald “Guy” Generals, president of CCP, praised the partnership.
“This is a national model to show that level of resource support for education and for higher education, post-secondary education and a way to further advance this idea that education needs to go beyond the 12th grade,” he said.
Students at the school can end up graduating high school and go right into their junior year of college, if they choose to pursue a higher education.
Generals said the program, which started in the 2017-2018 school year, has been one of CCP’s flagship programs.

Researchers have successfully created and tested a form of artificial vision. After receiving a brain implant, Bernardeta Gómez, 57, was able to identify simple letters, lines and shapes – and even managed to play a simplified version of the game Pac-Man.
Gómez lost his sight 16 years ago due to an injury to the optic nerve called toxic optic neuropathy. In unprecedented use of technology, the team of researchers implemented an arrangement of 96 microelectrodes, 4 mm by 4 mm, in the visual cortex of the former biology teacher, to make her see.
During the experiments, Gómez wore special glasses, equipped with a camera. The visual data collected by the glasses were encoded and sent to the electrodes. They directly stimulated the volunteer’s brain, which transformed electrical signals into images.

There have been many conflicts and arrests of Wet’suwet’en people by militarized Royal Canadian Mounted Police for years. There are heightened tensions now as construction of the Coastal GasLink pipeline has reached the point of drilling under the sacred headwaters of the Wedzin Kwa river.
Yesterday Chief Dsta’hyl and Kolin Sutherland-Wilson were arrested and removed from the Wet’suwet’en land. At the end of this are information and videos about Kolin and his brother Denzel Sutherland-Wilson and their work to protect the Wet’suwet’en territories.

Vivaldi translation: ”Look see: the most important and beautiful thing in the world is this: that people are not always the same, they have not yet been finished – but that they are always changing. They tune or tune. Greater truth. That’s what life taught me.”
Guimarães Rosa.
” Mire veja: o mais importante e bonito, do mundo, é isto: que as pessoas não estão sempre iguais, ainda não foram terminadas – mas que elas vão sempre mudando. Afinam ou desafinam. Verdade maior. É o que a vida me ensinou.”
Guimarães Rosa.

Engraçado, nós estamos vivendo uma era onde as pessoas tem mais liberdade, onde podem pensar, questionar a realidade, promover uma série de questões e tudo mais. Todavia, tenho a impressão de que, mesmo com essa forma de encher o peito e lutar pelo o que elas dizem ser melhor para elas e para o momento atual da história, eu tenho a impressão de que nunca vivemos de forma tão alienada. Como eu disse, apesar dessa liberdade de pensar e expressar o resultado de nossos pensamentos ( diferente do passado) A gente vê uma galera que comunica o que deseja através de memes: vida pessoal, política, o happy hour com os amigos no final de tarde. O que há? Nunca se viveu ou poderia dizer assim ” nunca tivemos tantas facilidades como hoje. A tecnologia é uma delas! Como reclamar do passado se mesmo em meio a facilidade que temos hoje…

Vivaldi translation: “Human pain moves me. I believe that looking at this detail is a matter of humanitarian principle. In fact, this is a detail that has always touched me. So, on the day that it has no effect, it is certainly because I will no longer be here.”
Marii Freire Pereira
“A dor humana me comove. Acredito que olhar para esse detalhe é uma questão de princípio humanitário. Aliás, esse é um detalhe que sempre me tocou. Portanto, no dia em que isso não gerar nenhum efeito, certamente, é porque já não estarei mais aqui.”
