In the dream, I was queued with my friends waiting to be seated at a formal dinner that was being hosted by a royal person of ambiguous status. Our group was soon seated at a very elegant table set with exquisite china and silver flatware. I was assigned a place beside Gary, a friend’s son.
A uniformed servant placed the first course at everyone’s places at the table. There was some type of mousse that was presented in a crystal comport and adorned with spicy sprinkles. While I tried to decide which part of the mousse to dig into first, Gary had already devoured half of his portion. He then noticed that I had not yet begun to eat. Gary told me to just dig in anywhere and enjoy the fruity goodness. The moment my fork touched the mousse, I awakened from the dream with a wide smile on my…
The Grand Canyon is amazing. Vivaldi translation of introduction: Observing the abyss of the Grand Canyon for the first time, naturalist Donald Carlos Pitty said that he was aware of the presence of God’s will in this place, and the writer J. B. Priestley described the meandering of the Colorado River between huge rock walls as the “Terrible Court of Nature.” Both of these observations – used by lay people to explain the majesty of the Grand Canyon – date back to the end of the 19th century, when America was just discovering its natural beauty. Until then, the expanses of the Wild West were preferred as a territory to be conquered and whose natural resources to be depleted. Whites have known about the Grand Canyon for centuries, since 1540 when it was discovered by Spanish Captain Garcia Lopez de Cardenas, when he was sent north by the Viceroy of Mexico to find Chibola, one of the seven legendary golden cities. But with such an ambitious order, he could only be disappointed when he arrived in the Grand Canyon.
Posmatrajući prvi put bezdan Velikog Kanjona prirodnjak Donald Karlos Piti, rekao je da je svjestan prisustva božje volje na ovom mjestu, a pisac Dž. B. Pristli opisao je vijuganje rijeke Kolorado između ogromnih stjenovitih zidova kao “Strašni sud prirode”. Oba ova zapažanja – kojim pribjegavaju svjetovnjaci kako bi objasnili veličanstvenost Velikog Kanjona – vode porijeklo s kraja XIX vijeka, kada je Amerika tek otkrivala prirodnu ljepotu. Dotad su prostranstva Divljeg zapada radije posmatrana kao teritorija koju treba osvojiti i čija prirodna bogatstva treba iscrpiti. Bijelci su za Veliki kanjon znali vijekovima, još od 1540. godine kada ga je otkrio španski kapetan Garsija Lopez de Kardenas, koga je na sjever poslao vicekralj Meksika da pronađe Čibolu, jedan od sedam legendarnih zlatnih gradova. Ali, s tako ambicioznim nalogom, on je mogao samo da se razočara pri dolasku u Veliki kanjon.

Vivaldi translation of introduction: A month of violent attacks by miners against Yanomami communities without protection from the Brazilian state! – «If the prospectors dig everywhere, the rivers of the forest will be full of mud, engine oil and garbage. They wash their gold dust in the streams, mixing it with mercury – dirty and dangerous … »

Um conflito eclodiu em 27 de abril, quando um grupo de Yanomami interceptou garimpeiros ilegais que subiam o Rio Uraricoera em uma lancha carregada com combustível para seus aviões, helicópteros e escavadeiras industriais que eles usam para arrancar árvores e mover o solo. Os Yanomami apreenderam 990 litros de combustível. Em seguida, outro grupo de garimpeiros em direção a Boa Vista disparou contra os Yanomami na tentativa de intimidar a comunidade indígena que há anos tenta impedir que garimpeiros ilegais subam rios em seu território.
No dia 30 de abril, os Yanomami contataram autoridades governamentais para alertá-los sobre episódios de violência na região de Palimiú. A região é formada por 1.129 Yanomami em 15 aldeias.
Nenhuma ação efetiva foi tomada pelas forças de segurança do estado.

Adulting is about knowing how you learn most effectively, but also about understanding systems, similes, and relationships of change between varying quantities. Like the price of a main staple, like rice, over time in hours, days, or weeks…
1.) What do you think is one possible scenario where rice can (or has…) cause riots?
2.) Why might it be important that citizens in a republic understand these possible scenarios?
3.) Write a book, story, blog post or tweet that uses those thoughts, and then, please tell us about it! If you write a book, once it is published please consider donating a copy to your local public library.
Smješten u neposrednoj blizini Svete zemlje, Kipar je neizbježno bio među prvim zemljama koje su primile hrišćanstvo te je postao utočište progonjenih hrišćana i bezbjedno sklonište za umjetničko blago kojem su prijetili ikonoborci. Sveti Pavle je 45. godine putovao po ostrvu sa svetim Varnavom, preobraćenim Jevrejinom porijeklom s Kipra, koga su apostoli primili da zauzme Judino mjesto. Za vrijeme putovanja Pavle je osnovao crkvu posvećenu Herakliju, svecu koji ga je svojevremeno odveo čak do planina u oblasti Trodos. Predio s gustom kedrovom i borovom šumom i strminama prženim suncem, neočekivano se otvara pred očima onih koji stignu u blizinu obale. U tom kraju, na pola puta između Nikozije i Limasola, na visini koja dostiže i 2.000 metara, širenje hrišćanstva ostavilo je važne tragove. U Uneskovu listu svjetske baštine uključeno je deset vizantijskih crkava u Trodosu – Stavros tu Agijasmati, Panagija tu Araka, Timiju Stavru a Pelendri, Agios Nikolas tis Stegis…
Did you know there is something called the Silver Economy? I love this expression. I hear it is booming in the United States, and why shouldn’t it boom in Jamaica and across the Caribbean? I know on this island we have an aging population – and apparently this also applies to the Latin American/Caribbean region in general. Here’s a great article explaining the potential of the Silver Economy from earlier this year.
Now the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) has launched its challenge – perfectly timed, as countries in the region struggle to emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic (some of us more successfully than others), and as we consider the support for vulnerable (and growing) populations.
There is funding out there for innovative projects that benefit our elders. Please take advantage of this, and share with anyone who might be interested! The deadline is July 31, 2021, so get your…
