Diuris fragrantissima, commonly called the fragrant doubletail or Sunshine diuris, is a species of orchid which is endemic to a small area to the west of Melbourne. It has two linear leaves at its base and up to twelve white flowers with mauve or pale purple markings with unusually long lateral sepals. Only about thirty plants survive in grassland near Sunshine.

Description
Diuris fragrantissima is a tuberous, perennial herb with two linear leaves  long,  wide and folded lengthwise. Up to twelve white flowers with mauve or pale purple markings,  wide are borne on a flowering stem  tall. The dorsal sepal is erect, egg-shaped,  long and  wide. The lateral sepals are narrow lance-shaped,  long, about  wide, turned downwards at an angle and almost parallel to each other. The petals are erect or turned backwards with an elliptic or egg-shaped blade  long and  wide on a green stalk  long. The labellum is  long and has three lobes. The centre lobe is fan-shaped or heart-shaped,  long,  wide with a raised ridge along its midline and wrinkled edges. The side lobes are erect, irregularly shaped,  long and about  wide. There are two ridge-like calli  long near the base of the mid-line of the base of the labellum. Flowering occurs in October and November.

Taxonomy and naming
The fragrant doubletail was first formally described in 1964 by Alick Dockrill from an unpublished description by Herman Rupp and given the name Diuris punctata var. albo-violacea. The description was published in The Victorian Naturalist. In 1989 David Jones and Mark Clements changed the name to D. fragrantissima noting that it differs from D. punctata in "having a dwarf habit, the stiff, erect habit of the flowers that are white with purple markings, and its strong fragrance". The specific epithet (fragrantissima) is the superlative form of the Latin word fragrans meaning "smelling agreeably".

Distribution and habitat
At the time of European settlement, D. fragrantissima was plentiful in the grasslands to the west of Melbourne, but as early as 1934, W.H. Nicholls noted that it had become scarce. The population continued to decline until only one plant survived in the wild in 1992. About thirty wild plants of Diuris fragrantissima survive in grassland near Sunshine and others have been introduced to a small reserve near Altona. The populations at both Sunshine and Altona are under great stress due to the encroachment of industrial and residential development. Ecological processes such as the loss of natural pollinators also threaten this species. About 200 individuals survive in cultivation, mostly at Melbourne Zoo and the Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria.

Conservation
Diuris fragrantissima is classified as "endangered" under the Australian government Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 and the Victorian government Flora and Fauna Guarantee Act 1988. The main threats to the species are weed invasion, predation, especially by the introduced house mouse (Mus musculus), altered fire regimes and human interference.

NASA to announce name for Mars 2020 rover in March
Source: Xinhua| 2020-01-15 10:22:31|Editor: zyl
LOS ANGELES, Jan. 14 (Xinhua) -- NASA will announce the name for its next Mars rover in March, according to a latest release of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL).
NASA initiated the "Name the Rover" essay contest and received more than 28,000 submissions from students from kindergarten to 12th grade, 155 of whom were selected as semifinalists, according to the JPL.
The next phases of judging will reduce the competition to nine finalists, and the public will have an opportunity to vote for their favorite name online in late January.
The essay contest winner will be invited to see the spacecraft launch in July from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in the state of Florida.
The currently unnamed rover is a robotic scientist weighing more than 1,000 kg. It will search for signs of past microbial life, characterize the planet's climate and geology, collect samples for future return to Earth and pave the way for human exploration of the planet, according to the JPL.
"This rover is the first leg of a round-trip mission to Mars that will advance understanding in key science fields like astrobiology," said Lori Glaze, director of NASA's Planetary Science Division.
"This contest is a cool way to engage the next generation and encourage careers in all STEM fields. The chosen name will help define this rover's unique personality among our fleet of Martian spacecraft," Glaze said.

Management Rights in very general terms refer to a type of business. A management rights business exists when a body corporate, created under legislation, contracts with a third party (the management rights business owner) to manage and care take the common property of the body corporate and to carry out the function of letting agent on the property. The basis of each contract is not standardized throughout the industry and each property will have its own quirks – it is impossible to cover all the scenarios here.
The contracts - or management rights - with the body corporate is essentially an asset which can be bought and sold.
For more information on why you should buy management rights, click here.
The management rights business is independent from the administration of the body corporate and is usually run in a 'hands on' capacity by the owner of the business or by employees of the owner.
The owner of the management rights (the manager) is required to perform common property caretaking duties usually outlined in a schedule to the agreement with the body corporate and is required to be available to assist members of the body corporate and its committee. For this an agreed remuneration is paid. In Australia the remuneration can be quite substantial; in New Zealand it can be nominal. The owner of the management rights can make a great success of the letting component and create a thriving business.
Therefore in essence, the main venture of a management rights business is the operation of a service accommodation business similar to owning a freehold going concern motel or a lease of a motel, motor lodge or hotel. In these scenarios the units or apartments will be let for traveller's accommodation, but in some properties the type of letting may be better suited for long term residential tenancies of six months or longer, or purpose built accommodation such as student accommodation connected to a university campus.
The significant difference between management rights and operating a motel lease is that under management rights, the manager does not pay a rental to the motel owner. Instead the manager is paid a salary from the Body Corporate to maintain the common property. Any repairs and maintenance are paid for by the body corporate not the manager.
In terms of letting, all the rental income received is shared between the manager and the owner of the unit in accordance with an agreement between them. It is the owner of the unit who pays rates, utilities and body corporate levies directly. While costs associated with the letting such as cleaning charges, marketing fees, management commissions are accounted for in a monthly statement to the owner.
Usually in addition to purchasing the management rights i.e. the caretaking and letting contracts, the owner of the management rights will also purchase a pre-defined apartment within the complex to live in. Generally the apartment is the one closest to or attached to the reception or office. The office may or may not be owned as part of the business. If it does not form part of the management rights title then it should be granted as exclusive use to the manager or an occupation authority granted to the manager.
In New Zealand some buildings do not require that the owner of the management rights own an apartment within the complex. Sometimes an investor may own the apartment in which the manager resides and the body corporate reimburses the manager the cost of the lease. These properties are not as popular however as funding is harder to achieve due to the lack of freehold title.
The body corporate itself is a legal entity made up of the individual owners of the units in the complex. In all cases the units or apartments have their own freehold title. The body corporate must comply with the legal requirements set out in the relevant legislation such as the Unit Titles Act 1972 in New Zealand.
The day to day administration of the body corporate is performed by a nominated committee, the manager (owner of the management rights) and usually a professional body corporate manager or secretary is contracted to carry out the financial, secretarial and administrative functions of the body corporate.
A set of by-laws are drawn up and adopted at the first general meeting of the Body Corporate and all owners and guests are bound by these rules.
The owners in the body corporate pay a levy set at the annual general meeting which pays the building operating costs including the manager's remuneration. They are also levied for a sinking fund which is used for long term repairs and replacements of a capital nature based around a 10 year forecast plan.
Body corporate legislation is heavily regulated in Australia. While the some-what archaic legislation in New Zealand is currently under review.
The security of the manager's tenure does vary. For example the caretaking and letting agreements for the Holiday Module in Queensland are 25 years and the Standard Module is set at 10 years. The length for both modules in New South Wales is a maximum of 10 years. New Zealand has no regulated length but they generally range from 19 to 30 years.
The letting agreement between the owner of a unit and the manager to manage the letting of their apartment is governed by legislation in Australia and can be terminated by giving 90 days notice in writing. There is no requirement for the owner to use the letting services of the manager, so the manger must prove they are the best person for the job. Letting agent appointments in New Zealand are not regulated, but the Lancaster Group understands the importance of this agreement and use the same Australian format in New Zealand.
Management rights have traditionally been an excellent business in both countries and have shown good capital gains and steady income. They are generally sold using a multiplier of the net income plus the manager's apartment.

Inherent to property rights is the right of an owner to use her land to capture water to use. If a lake or stream is on her property, she can draw water out of it. She also can drill into the earth and draw water from underground. But doing so can affect the water available to other landowners.
If a stream runs through some land and the owner diverts the water to irrigate her land, people who own land downstream may not be able to draw as much or any water from the stream. If a landowner drills a well and draws out lots of water for an industrial operation, neighboring properties may not be able to draw water from their own wells.
Water moves, whether it's on the surface or underground. It may be present on a person's land for a time, but then it may move on to someone else's land. So a landowner doesn't have a right to use all the water that touches her land. Different states have different rules concerning how much water a landowner can take from a water body or from underground.
In most states, owners of land that touches a lake or stream have a property right to use that water. Such land is generally called riparian land, although land touching a lake may instead be called littoral. So the property rights that owners of such land have in the water may be called riparian rights.
In Western states, however, ownership of water isn't necessarily connected to ownership of land that the water is drawn from. Instead, ownership of water comes from making beneficial use of the water before others do. These laws about water ownership are referred to as prior appropriation laws.
The traditional common law rule, originating in England, is called the natural flow rule. The natural flow rule says that all owners of riparian land have a property right in the flow of the water. No riparian owner can alter the natural flow of the water, because doing so would interfere with downstream riparian owners' rights in the water.
Of course, any use of the water at all would interfere with the natural flow of the stream. But the natural flow rule allows riparian owners to use water as long as it doesn't substantially or materially diminish the amount of water or impair the quality of the water.
A riparian owner can draw water for domestic purposes such as drinking, cooking, and cleaning as well as to water domestic animals. If any other use substantially or materially impairs the quantity or quality of water, however, the landowner is liable to the downstream owners. And the riparian owner can't draw water out to be used on nonriparian land.
This rule severely limits the amount of water that can be used for agricultural or industrial purposes, which is why courts gradually modified this rule to allow more extensive uses of water. Nowadays, most states follow a different rule altogether: the reasonable use rule.
The relative value of the parties' competing water uses: Courts consider both the importance of the uses to the individual owners as well as their social and economic importance to the community. Domestic uses are generally considered the most important uses, so domestic uses on riparian land don't unreasonably interfere with nondomestic uses. In some states, irrigation is considered the next most important use.
The extent of the injury to the parties' competing water uses if they lose: This consideration may include how efficiently the parties are using water and the costs of getting needed water from other sources.
*Whether the water is being used to benefit riparian land: Water may be diverted to benefit nonriparian land, but uses to benefit riparian land are generally favored and more likely to be reasonable.
The Western states have prior appropriation statutes that govern rights to water. Prior appropriation statutes differ, but the basic rule is that anyone, whether a riparian owner or not, can obtain a property right to keep using a certain volume of water by first applying that amount of water to a beneficial use. Essentially, any productive use of water is a beneficial use.
When a person appropriates water in this way, she applies to a state agency that administers the water rights system. The agency gives her a permit that entitles her to keep drawing that volume of water.
If there isn't enough water for all the permit holders, an earlier permit usually prevails over a later permit. However, most statutes identify preferred water uses and allow the holder of a later permit for a preferred use to take her specified volume of water, but she has to compensate the earlier permit holder.
The prior appropriation system entirely takes the place of riparian ownership in the most arid Western states. But in the coastal states and the states from North Dakota to Texas, the system is combined with the reasonable use rule.
Some of those states hold that riparian use prevails in a conflict with nonriparian appropriation rights; some hold that appropriation rights prevail over riparian uses; and some hold that the earlier use prevails.

</deadlock>

A simple and classic example of a deadlock. Now, from the excellent and detailed answer to my previous question by Paul White (here), I think I have a better understanding (stressing I think!) what is going on.
Firstly this is a very simple delete statement on the model.AttributeValue table using a table-valued parameter to delete multiple rows at once.
So, we have a page-level lock on the table (or more precisely the clustered index on the table). The first process IX has an an exclusive lock on the table and also wants a U lock. The other, deadlocked process, already has a U lock but wants an IX lock. The U lock is needed because rows now need to be read from the table, and since my database is using read-committed snapshot isolation (RCSI) level, this is what the database engine does.
Now, here is the execution plan:

Questions:

*

*Is the U lock needed because the delete statement first needs to find (read) the rows from the AttributeValue table, and join with the TVP (the first nested loop)?

*Why are the IX and U locks not taken in order? I.e. why does one process acquire a U lock first and then an IX and the other process the other way around? I would expect the U lock to be needed first, then the IX lock when deleting from the clustered index.

*This is a page level lock, many rows could fall under that page. I am still not sure as to how to prevent the deadlock here. Paul in his answer above mentioned that rows in each set are processed in strictly the same order (sorted the same way, and processed in the same sequence by the execution plan). I'm a bit unsure as to how this needs to be enforced. Or if it applies here.

*Are some deadlocks just unavoidable? Is this where something like a TABLOCK needs to be employed? I realise this hint naturally results in an performance hit. Under what (general) circumstances can I ascertain that I need a TABLOCK hint? Also, when is the TABLOCK released? At the end of the statement or the transaction?

*Are TVP partly to blame here? The fact that we're using TVP means the optimizer cannot know how many rows to delete (could be 1, could be 100). A more simpler delete statement could just use row-level locks?

One of the issues we have with our system is long-running transactions. Some of our transactions are quite large and due to the nature of the system (and to keep data integrity) we need to run a few sp's within a transaction to ensure this. The delete statement above is an example of a transaction with a lot of calls to other sp's to restructure the data during the delete.

On Tuesday Jan. 12, B.C. will be making its submission to the National Energy Board (NEB) on the proposed Kinder Morgan Trans Mountain project and we expect her to reject the pipeline and tankers project.
She's done it before: in May 2013, Christy Clark rejected the proposed Enbridge Northern Gateway pipeline. This helped pave the way for Prime Minister Trudeau to kill the project once and for all with a tanker ban on the north coast.
Premier Clark has five conditions that must be met before the Province would approve the project. Enbridge does not and can not meet those conditions, and neither can the proposed Kinder Morgan pipeline.
Condition 1: Successful completion of the environmental review process.
The NEB process for this project has been widely criticized as flawed and biased in favour of the proponent. Among other failings, the NEB review process has curtailed public participation, denied participants adequate and timely funding, allowed Kinder Morgan to submit incomplete information and ignore information requests, disallowed the consideration of upstream and downstream impacts, disallowed the consideration of climate and failed to ensure Kinder Morgan's environmental and risk assessment conformed to best practices. You can read our detailed report on this utterly flawed process here.
Condition 2: World-leading marine oil spill response, prevention and recovery systems for B.C.'s coastline and ocean to manage and mitigate the risks and costs of heavy oil pipelines and shipments.
Condition 3: World-leading practices for land oil spill prevention, response and recovery systems to manage and mitigate the risks and costs of heavy oil pipelines.
A recent study commissioned by the B.C. government showed that effective spill response is impossible much of the time on the B.C. coast. Even under the best and most accessible of conditions, 10 to 15 per cent clean-up is the industry standard, leaving the rest of the oil behind in the marine ecosystem, poisoning coastal and marine life and the communities that depend upon it. No amount of safety precautions can justify the extreme risk of increasing tanker traffic on B.C.'s coast. The state of land spill response is little better.
Condition 4: Legal requirements regarding Aboriginal and treaty rights are addressed, and First Nations are provided with the opportunities, information and resources necessary to participate in and benefit from a heavy-oil project.
Along the proposed pipeline path, many First Nations peoples have vocally opposed this proposal, including twelve nations who signed an open letter challenging the NEB process. The Tsleil-Waututh Nation went to court in October 2015 to challenge the NEB consultation process, calling it unconstitutional and highlighting rights, title and consultation concerns.
Condition 5: British Columbia receives a fair share of the fiscal and economic benefits of a proposed heavy oil project that reflects the level, degree and nature of the risk borne by the province, the environment and taxpayers.
An oil spill could cost $1.23 billion, that does not include costs associated with health, property, non-tourism businesses, spill response, clean-up, and litigation, nor does it look beyond the lower mainland.
Regardless of the financial cost of oil spill clean-up efforts, it is British Columbians who will live with the consequences. There is no social license for this project. First Nations, Municipalities, unions, scientists, business owners and members of the general public have all stood up against this project.
And there is one more condition, not mentioned in the Premier's five, that must be considered, especially after the Paris climate talks committed Canada to keeping global warming to 1.5ºC: that is climate.
As part of the environmental assessment process, every energy project must be put to a climate test. It's a simple question: does it make the climate worse? If it does, we don't build it. Simple as that.
The Kinder Morgan pipeline simply cannot pass a climate test. The project would completely undermine our capacity to achieve emissions reduction targets to fulfill international obligations.
Now is the time for the provincial government to demonstrate meaningful climate leadership by clearly opposing Kinder Morgan's proposal. In its final submission to the NEB, our provincial government must remember who it works for and what is best for this province. It must say No!
May 31, 2013 B.C. government news release.

Green Party's Larrick to enter Senate race
OMAHA, Neb.—Steve Larrick will bicycle across the state in the spring to tell Nebraskans why they should elect him to the U.S. Senate.
Larrick, co-chairman of the Nebraska Green Party, said he'll enter the race Sunday to replace Republican Chuck Hagel, who isn't seeking re-election.
And this time Larrick, who has run for office as a Green Party candidate before, won't have to spend time gathering signatures to get on the ballot.
The Green Party is recognized as an official party for the 2008 election because, for the first time, last year its candidate for statewide office got more than 5 percent of the vote when Doug Paterson ran for secretary of state.
The party has to garner at least 5 percent of the vote in a statewide election next year to maintain that distinction.
Larrick said the party has candidates ready to run for other offices but wouldn't give details.
Larrick, 55, is an elected member of the Lower Platte South Natural Resource District board. He was a Green Party candidate for the 1st District House seat in 2004, and ran for state auditor last year, losing to Republican Mike Foley.
The situation in Iraq is a big reason Larrick decided to run for the Senate.
"As long as the United States is there as an occupier, there will be violence and death continuing to fester," said Larrick, adding that he would vote to bring troops home.
Larrick said he also would vote for legislation to give illegal immigrants a pathway to citizenship through education or other routes, as was suggested in a measure that failed in the Senate earlier this year.
Larrick is married to Janine Copple and has an 18-year-old son.
Also running for the Senate seat are three Republicans: Schuyler businessman Pat Flynn, state Attorney General Jon Bruning and Mike Johanns, former U.S. agriculture secretary and Nebraska governor.
No Democrat has entered the race yet.

There are many festivals along 9th Street that exhibit the true essence of the market. The parking lot entrance should be on Washington Avenue so these festivals can continue. 9th Street is also a narrow street not well equipped to deal with a concentrated influx of more cars. Washington Avenue is better able to handle the capacity. It's common sense.
Plus the proposed number of units is too large for this location and there is not enough parking the number of units! The congestion is going to be horrific.

The project adds nothing to the market. First floor tenant spaces are already available in the market and some have been unoccupied for years. Do you think a sprinkler system and new storefront glazing will attract new tenants? What COULD contribute to the market is office space. DiBruno makes lunch sandwiches, George's just reopened; the market NEEDS a day life. Decades ago it may have been common for wives to go shopping during the day while their husbands are at work. Since those days supermarkets have extended their hours to account for evening shoppers. The Italian market has not changed. Therefore people must be there during the day. If workspace is created, developers get money from commercial tenants and the market thrives. If the developer builds more homes the tenant spaces will sit vacant, some for months or longer. It's probably too late to comment on the hideous design, but it's ugly. And the underground parking must come from Washington because 9th Street will be closer more often for celebrations like the Italian Market festival happening next month. It would be irresponsible to plan a curb cut in an area known for street closures. It would be irresponsible to set a precedent for curb cuts in an area known for street closures. It would alter in a negative way the character of the Market if a curb cut was installed.

Spa Creek Could Actually Get Better
In 1650 or thereabouts, a small band of Puritans sailed up Spa Creek and put down roots to create the town we call Annapolis. Then, as now, the Creek was deep, protected and a modest but safe port. In the 18th century, ocean-crossing ships called in Acton's Cove. The Creek was first called Todd's Creek, then Carroll's Creek and later, Spa.
In those early days, the shorelines were deeply wooded. Today, they are lined with million-dollar houses, docks, boatyards and marinas. None of this improves today's water quality, but it is better than the old days when the streets and sewers of the historic district ran straight into the Creek.
Now Spa Creek, that lovely, historic heart of Annapolis, is about to get a major makeover.
Three, multi-million-dollar projects on its shorelines are in the permit stage and about to get underway. Together, they have the potential to change the look and feel of Annapolis's central soul by 2018 or so.
If done right, these three developments could actually reduce the pollution that currently washes into the Creek and improve the quality of its murky water. That's right: improve it. It is not often that you can say that about development, or any human activity, for that matter.
But for that to happen, the three projects have to be engineered conscientiously, not just meeting existing environmental regulations, but exceeding them, setting an example of what can be achieved when responsible people make the right decisions with an eye towards the future.
"We are very hopeful that Spa Creek is going to improve," said Amy Clements, the president of the Spa Creek Conservancy, a citizens' group, that works to upgrade the watershed. She said she was optimistic after meeting recently with officers from the Annapolis Yacht Club, which is behind two of the three upcoming projects, including a new informal clubhouse and pool on the Eastport side of the Spa Creek Bridge.
"Our goal is zero discharge," said Rod Jabin, the recent past commodore of AYC. "We want to reach 100 per cent containment of storm water runoff from the Eastport site. Now it is up to the engineers and architects to tell us that that is possible."
Spa is deceptively beautiful, especially on a soft, sunny evening like last Tuesday, when dozens of boats cruised gently up and down the Creek, stand-up paddle-boarders frolicked and the Dragon Boats stroked to their own drummers. People fish and swim in the Creek, although I am not sure I would recommend it. Spa is tidal, but far from pristine..
The Spa Creek Conservancy is trying to clean up the headwaters with the help of a $2.8 million grant and has already made progress in clearing trash from Hawkins Cove.
The three upcoming redevelopment projects could have an even bigger impact. They are all downstream within a few hundreds yards of each other: the Annapolis Yacht Club's three-story clubhouse on the west end of the Spa Creek bridge that was devastated by a fire last December; the new informal clubhouse and pool on the southeast side of the bridge, and a junior sailing center and offices on the northeast side; and the South Annapolis Yacht Centre, on the site of the former Sarles and Petrini boatyards, which describes itself as a "waterfront destination" with housing, a marina and marine services.
All three projects are deep into the permit process, which, like everything else in Annapolis, is painstaking and slow. But Bret Anderson, the builder who is developing the South Annapolis Yacht Centre, argues that the Eastport sites will inevitably be cleaner than what is there now just by meeting the current requirement that 50 per cent of the storm water and other runoff from impervious surfaces be trapped and treated.
The Sarles and Petrini yards were among the oldest on the creek, built 100 and 75 years ago respectively, when there were no regulations about containing runoff. "They were probably the biggest contributors to pollution in the Creek," Anderson said. "We are going to make a big difference environmentally."
Anderson's plans include rain gardens, planted buffers, green roofs and pervious pavers — all designed to trap runoff. In the nearly four years since he bought the steep, 4.5-acre site from Sarles and Petrini heirs, Anderson has hauled away 19 derelict boats, 17 hazardous containments and 46 tractor trailers full of accumulated rubbish.
The Annapolis Yacht Club plans to rebuild the original clubhouse as it was. But on the Eastport sites, they are committed to introducing innovative runoff controls. Exactly how much runoff they can contain remains to be seen.
None of this will return Spa Creek to the crystal clarity that greeted the Puritans, but, if done right, it will help improve the water quality in a treasured resource.

BINGHAMTON, NY – In celebration of its 50th anniversary, the Center for Medieval and Renaissance Studies (CEMERS) at Binghamton University will present "Medieval Night" at 6 p.m. Friday, Dec. 2, at the University Downtown Center, 67 Washington St., Binghamton. This event, in collaboration with First Friday, is free and open to the public. Refreshments will be served.
Medieval Night will feature the chart-topping, world music group Piccola Banda Ikona from Italy. This group performs medieval music on traditional instruments in many languages, including Italian, Spanish, Latin, Arabic, Persian, and Sabir (a lingua franca once used by sailors, pirates, fisherman, merchants and ship owners in Mediterranean ports).
Binghamton University students and faculty will recite medieval poetry and perform medieval music and drama. Students who have been studying medieval manuscripts and the history of the book will give presentations. These presentations will conclude with a public "transcribe-athon," which will give the audience an opportunity to do what medievalists do—and write themselves into the ongoing story of an authentic 15th-century book.
Student/faculty presentations will begin at 6 p.m. and Piccola Banda Ikona will take the stage around 7:30 p.m.

Vue '20 Is a Fulbright Finalist
Trina Vue '20, Mendota Heights, is a Fulbright U.S. Student Program finalist.
An English major, Vue was chosen to spend a year in Thailand.
Vue ends her undergraduate career with a prestigious national award.
Trina Vue '20, Mendota Heights, is a Fulbright U.S. Student Program finalist. Her success speaks to the power and value of a University of Minnesota Morris education on the global stage.
Vue earned an English Teaching Assistant (ETA) award, which places students in classrooms abroad to provide assistance to local English teachers. Fulbright Students also represent the United States as cultural ambassadors during their time overseas.
An English major, Vue was chosen to spend a year in Thailand as an English Teaching Assistant. There she would have the opportunity to teach children not only about English as a language, but also about the nuances of and diversity within American culture.
"Growing up, I listened to my parents tell stories about their time as refugees in Thailand," says Vue. "It always seemed like such a faraway place, even though they called it home, which is why this Fulbright experience means so much to me: because it will provide me with the opportunity to retrace my family's roots and learn about a culture that I have always admired."
UMN Morris on a Global Stage
Five Morris students submitted Fulbright applications this year, supported by advising from faculty and staff through the Academic Center for Enrichment, and all were semifinalists. Vue is one of two finalists.
"As one of the country's top public liberal arts colleges, UMN Morris provides talented students access to life-changing educational opportunities," said Chancellor Michelle Behr. "Our exceptional students are prepared to live as engaged global citizens, and we are excited for their upcoming Fulbright experiences."

The United States of America is the third largest country in the world, and the largest English-speaking nation. It is located in North America, and it bordered by Canada to the North, the Atlantic Ocean to the East, Mexico to the South, and the Pacific Ocean to the West. It has two additional states not connected to the main continent (referred to as the continental United Satates); Hawaii, a chain of islands in the Pacific Ocean, and Alaska, a large state connected to Northwestern Canada. The United States also has 14 dependent islands in the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans; the don't have the rights and priveledges as US states, but are still considered US territories.
The United States is the fourth most populous country on the planet. The majority of Americans live along the four edges: the East Coast, the West Coast, the Eastern Canadian border, and the Mexican border. The rest of the population is spread out throughout the South and East, with the central-North regions be less populated. The people in Hawaii live mostly on one island, Oahu. The majority of Alaskans live along the Southern coast of the state, especially in the city of Anchorage.
The economy of the country is very diverse, and was once the most powerful economy in the world. Although it is now number two, whenever the United States has economic issues, it affects a large portion of the world. The US has the largest technological economy, and as such the services industry makes up the majority of the country's economy. Farming (animals, food crops, cotton), forestry, mining, manifacturing, oil and gas, and exports make up the rest of the economic power of the US.
The United States has a long history of native populations, dating back thousands of years. It is thought that a few decades before Europeans discovered the US, a widespread plague spread throughout the native populations of the land and wiped out a huge portion of them. When European settlers did come to discover the land, they unfortunately began to a long history of opression and assimilation, which has led to a number of issues with people of native descent today, most notably economic issues.
The United States' states were owned by a number of European nations, most notably France and Great Britain, with some states being owned by Mexico. The United States became independant from Great Britain on July 4th, 1776, when it was formed with 13 states. Over time, it kept gaining states from the other nations, sometimes through war (as with Mexican-owned Texas), and other times simply by purchasing the land (as with buying Alaska from Russia). The US now consists of 50 states.
The flag, referred to as Old Glory, has 50 white stars for each of its 50 states, and the 13 red and white stripes represent the 13 original colonies that made up the nation. The blue stands for loyalty, justice, truth, and friendship. Red stands for courage, zeal, and fervency (intensity). White stands for purity and rectitude (morality) of conduct.
The "United States" refers to the fact that 13 colonies united to form a new country, and referred to themselves as states from that point on. "America" refers to an Italian explorer, Amerigo Vespucci, from the 15th century.

New Video: Philly's Great Time Releases a Slickly Produced Banger
With the release of their self-produced, full-length debut, 2018's Great Album, Philadelphia-based indie trio Great Time — vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Jill Ryan, Zack Hartmann (bass, synths) and Donnie Spackman (drums, synths) exploded into the local and national scenes: The album caught the attention of WXPN's Bruce Warren with several album tracks receiving regular rotation. The album also received attention from NPR, Earmilk and Paste Magazine.
The band also quickly developed a reputation as a must-see live act, playing prominent local venues like World Cafe Live, TLA and Underground Arts before being asked to join nationally touring act Caroline Rose on her East Coast and Midwest tour dates. The Philadelphia-based trio began last year by being the house band for Winnfred Coombe's The Violet Hour, which featured Saturday Night Live cast members Alex Moffat and Melissa Villaseñor and guests Kristin Chenoweth and Gina Gershon. And just before the pandemic, the members of Great Time were set to open for Lawrence.
Much like countless bands and artists across the globe, the pandemic threw a monkey wrench into their touring plans; however, the Philadelphia trio have managed to remain busy writing, recording and self-producing new material, including the Sounds Like ________EP series. "The idea behind this Sounds Like series of EPs is simple: We want to make what we want to make. We're inspired by tons of different styles and sounds, and we feel most genuine when we're creating music without any limitations or boundaries," Great Time's Jill Ryan explains in press notes. "The title is a response to the critiques we received on our first album. Critics have suggested that we should pick a lane or a genre, and Sounds Like is our way of defying that while staying true to ourselves."
Released yesterday, the second EP of the series, Sounds Like ______ [Vol. 2] further establishes Great Time's genre-defying sound and approach with the EP's material sonically focusing on the electro pop element of their overall sound. Thematically, the EP touches upon the frustrations of being a musician/artist, self-doubt, anxiety, obsessive thoughts — and the urge to keep creating despite all of that.
Sounds Like ______ [Vol. 2]'s latest single, "80z Slo Jam" is a sleek and slickly produced song centered around jagged synth arpeggios, tweeter and woofer rattling beats, chiming keys and Ryan's sultry delivery paired with an infectious, club friendly hook. The song's title strikes me as being rather ironic: First it ain't exactly a slow jam. And secondly, the track sonically — to my ears, at least — is a mix of Nu Shooz-era synth pop and Lenses-era Soft Metals. Regardless of all of that, the track a finely crafted banger that captures day job frustration and ennui, longing and desire for more than working for the weekend.
The recently released video is a slick fever dream that follows the members of Great Time as bored and dissatisfied office drones with big dreams of escaping the rat race and making it.
With shows and tours actually being things again, the band will kick off at regional fall tour on September 18 with a set at WXPN's Xponential Fest before a run of shows in their hometown, NYC, Boston and Vermont. More on that to come, I hope! Additionally, Great Time's Jill Ryan will sit in on saxophone for Japanese Breakfast's sold out, five night run at Union Transfer, which started yesterday and ends on August 11. She'll also join Cassandra Jenkins and St. Vincent for several October dates including Pitchfork Festival and St. Vincent's highly-anticipated October 12 stop at Radio City Music Hall.

Even today, Vardy Valley is remote, according to Charlotte historian Heather Andolina. Situated in Hancock County, in northeastern Tennessee, the narrow valley can only be reached via a series of hairpin switchbacks on State Highway 63. Andolina, the senior museum assistant at Wells Fargo History Museum in uptown Charlotte who holds a masters degree in History from Winthrop University, has made the trek to this isolated sliver of Appalachia because it's the ancestral homeland of the Melungeons, a group of mixed-race mountain folk who for much of their existence have borne the brunt of racism and discrimination.
The title of the documentary that Andolina and her brothers Jacob and Andrew Gillen are currently producing about Melungeons, Infamous Characters, Notorious Villains, reflects this shameful history.
"My brother was thinking that would look great on a T-shirt." Andolina remembers. "I said, 'Andy, that's the title of our documentary!'"
One focus of the documentary is the Melungeons' origins, which remain shrouded in mystery and speculation. Depending on the story, Melungeons, who are also found in parts of southeastern Kentucky, western Virginia and western North Carolina, are descended from the survivors of the lost colony of Roanoke, Angolan slaves brought to Jamestown in 1619, or members of an ill-fated Spanish expedition to find an overland route to Mexico.
Some even claim Melungeons are one of the lost tribes of Israel, Andolina says, but few take that particular theory seriously. Clearly, the story of these once-obscure people is a boon to a history buff like Andolina, but her quest for knowledge is also fueled by personal reasons. Andolina believes that her family is descended from these once criminalized and reviled people who are now experiencing a rebirth and rediscovery.
"It all started when we learned my grandmother had a rare blood disease," Andolina says. Maxine Partin was diagnosed with polycythemia vera, in which the body makes too many red blood cells, causing clots to form easily. The family was concerned the disease was hereditary. It turned out it isn't, but curiosity led Andolina and many of her relatives to take a DNA test. The results were surprising for a family that had long considered itself mostly white.
"My grandmother had light mocha skin color, and she was always told that there was Native American blood in our family tree," Andolina says. "She had a teacher tell her that she was ugly because of the color of her skin made her look dirty."
Andolina's family's DNA tests turned up the expected Native American ancestry — and much more. Evidence of African, Middle Eastern and Southeast Asian, as well as European ancestry turned up. It was then that Andolina recalled hearing her mother and her cousin discussing a group of mixed-race mountain folk. It was the first time she heard the word Melungeon.
It turns out there are certain surnames associated with Melungeons, and one of those names, Gibson, was the last name of Andolina's great-great-grandfather Jesse. After tracing her ancestors to neighboring Claiborne County in Tennessee in the 1830s, Andolina can place her family in Vardy Valley in Hancock County by the early 1850s.
"In the early 1800s two gentlemen by the name of Vardemon Collins and Shepard Gibson established a settlement for Melungeon people in that valley, " Andolina says. "The Vardy Valley is named after Vardemon."
In that remote corner of Appalachia, the Melungeons may have escaped some of the discrimination they encountered elsewhere, but the living was still hard.
"Because of their mixed ethnicity Melungeons were not allowed to attend the white schools," Andolina says. Happily, a Presbyterian group came to the valley, Andolina says, where they built a church in 1897 and a school for the children of Vardy in 1902. The school closed in the 1970s and collapsed in the early 2000s. Andolina and her brothers shot footage of the school's ruins for their documentary, and they also filmed interviews with elderly Melungeons who attended the school before it closed. Two of them, Troy Williams and DruAnna Williams Overbay, have fond memories of the institution, which they say provided them with opportunities, Andolina says.
In addition to shooting in Vardy Valley and nearby Newman's Ridge, Tennessee, the compact documentary crew has shot in Morganton, at Big Stone Gap, Virginia and in Beaufort, South Carolina. Big Stone Gap is where the Melungeon Heritage Association holds its annual conference, Andolina says.
The MHA is an organization that brings together people who are either interested in the Melungeon story or are of Melungeon descent. Morganton is key in determining the origins of the Melungeon people, Andolina says, because it's the location of the Berry archeological site. To understand the importance of the Berry site, it's necessary to turn to another one of the crew's shooting locations: Beaufort.
In 1565, after establishing Saint Augustine on Florida's Atlantic coast, Spanish admiral and explorer Pedro Menéndez de Avilés journeyed to what is now Paris Island, South Carolina (near Beaufort) where he established a settlement called Santa Elena, Andolina says. De Avilés ordered conquistador Juan Pardo to find an inland route to Mexico.
"We interviewed Dr. David Moore, the lead archeologist at the Berry site, for the documentary," Andolina says, adding that one of the most likely Melungeon origin theories posits that Pardo's men interbred with Native Americans in and around Joara. The theory explains some of the ancestry found in the DNA of Melungeons, but Andolina stresses that to understand the background of any mixed-race people, we need to realize that Western Europe has never been the all-white society we've often been led to believe. Throughout their history, Melungeons often referred to themselves as Portuguese, Andolina says, to avoid the stigma of having African-American ancestry in their bloodline. They may have been more accurate than previously thought.
Many European explorers and settlers came from diverse bloodlines, Andolina says. The Moorish invasion of Spain, Portugal, Italy and France in the eighth century introduced African ancestry to European bloodlines. Starting with the Crusades of the 11th century, Turks and Arabs brought Middle Eastern and near-eastern DNA to the genetic melting pot. In their journeys beginning in the 15th century, Portuguese and Spanish explorers encountered and intermixed with people from Africa, India and Southeast Asia. As a result, many western "white" Europeans were mixed race long before they set foot on North American soil. Once they were in the new world, the Europeans' family trees were crossed with African and Native American ones.
If Infamous Characters, Notorious Villains can be cast as a detective story to discover the roots of Melungeons, Andolina points out, it may be a mystery with multiple solutions.
Given the scope of the Melungeons' story, Andolina and her brothers are currently crowd-funding to give their documentary a bigger look and a broader palette. Their Kickstarter campaign has a base goal along with four stretch goals, ranging from $10,000 for basic post-production to $100,000 for an expanded crew, audio and image sweetening, and a representative to lock down distribution deals. As production continues, they have presented their work-in-progress to the Mecklenburg Genealogical Society on June 11, where it was enthusiastically received. A similar presentation is planned for the Cabarrus Genealogy Society in October. With President Trump in office and the white supremacist movement on the rise, the subject matter of Infamous Characters, Notorious Villains has never been more relevant, Andolina maintains.
"Race is really an invention," she says. "The idea that America is white America is just not true. We've been mixed from the get-go, a mosaic of cultures." Andolina points out that America's past is entwined with diversity and its future will be even more diverse.
"If you look at human history," she says, "you see that it's a story about migration."
