Whimsie includes a baby bear.
The grizzly bear (Ursus arctos ssp.), less commonly known as the silvertip bear, is a large subspecies of brown bear inhabiting North America.
Most adult female grizzlies weigh 290–400 lb, while adult males weigh on average 400–790 lb.
A grizzly bear's front claws measure about 2-4 inches in length.
In North America, grizzly bears previously ranged from Alaska down to Mexico and as far east as the western shores of Hudson Bay; the species is now found in Alaska, south through much of western Canada, and into portions of the northwestern United States (including Idaho, Montana, Washington, and Wyoming), extending as far south as Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks.
Only about 1,500 grizzlies are left in the lower 48 states of the US. Of these, about 800 live in Montana. About 600 more live in Wyoming, in the Yellowstone-Teton area. There are an estimated 70–100 grizzly bears living in northern and eastern Idaho.
The grizzly bear is, by nature, a long-living animal. The average lifespan for a male is estimated at 22 years, with that of a female being slightly longer at 26. Females live longer than males due to their less dangerous life; avoiding the seasonal breeding fights in which males engage.
Grizzly bears hibernate for 5–7 months each year except where the climate is warm, as the California grizzly did not hibernate. During this time, female grizzly bears give birth to their offspring, who then consume milk from their mother and gain strength for the remainder of the hibernation period. To prepare for hibernation, grizzlies must prepare a den, and consume an immense amount of food as they do not eat during hibernation.

Maturity and caution win out over energy and verve in the survival battle for new small businesses, according to a survey by Warwick University Business School.
The study also discovered that fewer than one in five small businesses survive their first six years.
The survey, compiled by David Storey and Robert Cressey of the Centre for Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises in association with National Westminster Bank, found that businesses started by 50- to 55-year-olds were more than twice as likely to survive as those begun by people in their early twenties.
And a profile of individuals who start their own businesses showed that they tend to be male and in their early thirties, starting in business sectors in which they have had prior experience.
But there are differences between company founders in 1991 compared with those in 1988; the 1990's founders are more likely to be older and have managerial experience, although they are less likely to have worked in the same sector.
The survey looked at National Westminster's business clients who started businesses in 1988. The small business survival rate of less than 20 per cent is considerably worse than indications given by the Government's figures.

Firehouse Theater Company
Firehouse Theater Company is a non-profit theatrical organization.
Flyin' West
By Pearl Cleage
A Co-production of Firehouse and 5280 Artist Coop
Directed by donnie l. betts
April 9 - May 7, 2022
Following the end of the Civil War, many former slaves, anxious to leave the South and the increasing disappointments and dangers of Reconstruction, took advantage of The Homestead Act and went west to build new lives for themselves and their families. Many of these homesteaders were black women who overcame tremendous odds to work their own land and make a place for themselves in an often harsh and forbidding environment. Facing problems ranging from the inevitability of long, cold winters, to the possibility of domestic violence, to the continuing spectra of racial conflict, the women of FLYIN' WEST include Miss Leah, the old woman whose memories of slavery and its aftermath comprise a living oral history; Sophie Washington, whose determination to protect her land and those she loves puts to rest forever the requirement that western archetypes be white and male; Fannie Mae Dove, the gentle sister, trying to civilize the frontier with fine china and roses, who finds herself falling in love with their soft-spoken neighbor, Wil Parish; and Minnie Dove Charles, the headstrong baby sister whose mulatto husband, Frank, introduces a danger into the household that tests their sisterhood in unexpected ways.

Q: Enumerate TypeScript string literals Is there any way to loop over the values of a TypeScript string literal?
type category = "foo" | "bar" | "baz" | "xyzzy"

for (c in category) {
    // ... do something with each category
}

I currently have something like this:
let cat: category = ...

switch (cat) {
    case "foo":
    default:
        process("foo")
        break

    case "bar":
        process("bar")
        break

    case "baz":
        process("baz")
        break

    case "xyzzy":
        process("xyzzy")
        break
}

but I would rather use something like
let others: category = []
for (c in category) {      // Iterate over possible category values
    if (c !== "foo") others.push(c)
}

if (others.indexOf(cat) >= 0) {
    process(cat)
} else {
    process("foo")
}

A: This is the type declaration.
type category = "foo" | "bar" | "baz" | "xyzzy"

TypeScript transpiles to JavaScript that has no types.
Type in the TypeScript is just an information for transpiler about possible certain values (in this case). And type declaration is not compiled into any real runtime JavaScript object.
Thus you can not iterate through it, but you can use it in switch construction.

A: With typescript 2.1 and keyof type, it's possible to do it the other way round - you can define an object with necessary keys, and get union type of all the keys using keyof:
let categoryKeys = {foo: '', bar: '', baz: '', xyzzy: ''}; // values do not matter

type category = keyof typeof categoryKeys;

let x: category = 'foo'; // ok
let z: category = 'z'; //  error TS2322: Type '"z"' is not assignable
                       // to type '"foo" | "bar" | "baz" | "xyzzy"'.

console.log(Object.keys(categoryKeys)); // prints [ 'foo', 'bar', 'baz', 'xyzzy' ]

This is an eagerly sought after medal and we have a long waiting list of collectors who are putting together superb tributes for sailors and marines of the past. We offer the best prices paid.
We also have the privilege of buying in a very good South Atlantic Medal group to a Royal Marines Warrant officer who had a long career in the Marines. He had served in Aden and Northern Ireland before the Falklands Conflict.
Other purchases include a superb family lot of medals. These include the Victorian Burma clasp Service Medal and other medals to members of the same family. This lot was greatly enhanced by the addition of enamelled badges and shooting medals for The Queen's Regiment, The Royal West Surreys.

This medal is accompanied by his 1897 Queen Victoria Jubilee Medal and the Edward VII Coronation Medal.

Bureaucracy delays pricy burials in Syria's Aleppo
A cemetery in Aleppo - April 2019 (Sputnik)
تعقيدات وغلاء.. قبور حلب لمن يملك الثمن
Aleppo-Saber al-Halabi
After his mother passed away, Amer figured out that he cannot afford to bury her in a cemetery relatively close to his place of residence. Burials in Aleppo have become more complicated and increasingly expensive.
Amer told Enab Baladi that after his mother died from a stroke, he suffered due to bureaucracy predominating government departments while trying to obtain a medical certificate stating the cause of death to initiate burial procedures.
After he obtained the documents required for the burial process, he faced another obstacle, a costly one. Amer pointed out that an unused grave costs around 400,000 Syrian pounds (124 USD) while an old one is over 140,000 SYP (44 USD).
"I refused to bury my mother in a hole filled with human bones. Instead, I chose to bury her in our village's cemetery," Amer, in his thirties, said.
To his misfortune, the cost of burying his mother in a new grave in his village, Tell Hasel, in the southeastern countryside of Aleppo, is equal to the cost of a used grave in the city of Aleppo.
Honoring the dead has to wait
Burials are only authorized when there is a medical report or death certificate approved and stamped by Aleppo's Doctors Syndicate. Aleppo bereaved clients have to deal with complex procedures at the concerned department, which often causes burial delays.
Burials in the city of Aleppo require carrying out a lot of procedures. A family member or another adult relative of a dead person should first go to the mukhtar of the neighborhood and the supervising doctor, to correctly determine the cause and date of death.
The deceased's family or relatives cannot carry out burial procedures unless they obtain all the required documents. But, the burial department is now suffering "from great pressure due to the large number of deaths related to COVID-19 infection," an employee in the department told Enab Baladi.
Coronavirus imposes new measures
Scores of graves are dug daily in approved cemeteries inside and outside the city of Aleppo. In the New Islamic Cemetery, between 50 and 70 graves are dug every day.
More than 20 of these graves are dedicated to those who died of coronavirus infections. Their bodies are tightly wrapped; their family or relatives are not allowed to approach them, Mahmoud, a gravedigger, told Enab Baladi.
The dead COVID-19 patients are buried "in designated plots within the cemetery." The price of a single grave was not more than 200,000 SYP before coronavirus hit Syria (116 USD according to the exchange rate of the SYP against the US dollar at that time). Graves' prices in the local currency increase in line with an increase in the COVID-19 death toll.
Prices of graves vary between the city and the countryside of Aleppo. Graves in the city of Aleppo cost at least 50,000 SYP (15 USD) while graves in the countryside cost around 20,000 SYP in March 2020.
The number of people who have been infected with coronavirus throughout Syria, since March 2020, has amounted to 24,000, according to the data recorded by the Syrian regime's Ministry of Health.
About 3.5000 coronavirus cases were recorded in Aleppo. Only 200 deaths were reported, while Aleppo residents say that the numbers are much higher.

For our first trip climbing outdoors on our own we decided to go back to Brown Slabs at Shepherds Crag in the Lake District. We also decided to go back on August bank holiday weekend! Would this turn out to be a huge mistake, or would we survive!
So finally, our fourth campsite of the evening was Rosthwaite campsite. We fully expected this to be packed as well but it turned out to be virtually empty. Strange! (but it didn't last, by Saturday night it was packed). So we settled down for the night, hoping for nice weather for the saturday.
Saturday came and the weather looked ok so off we set bright and early. And yet again we managed to beat the rush. First to the car park and first to the crag by 9.30am.
Typical. Luckily we stuck it out, sat around under the trees and discussed belay stances and anchor technics for nearly an hour as the rain came and went. Then finally about 10:30 it finally cleared up and we decided to just go for it! And glad we did, because aside from a bit of wind and a few more spots of rain in the afternoon we had a lovely day. As for what routes we did I have no idea. We started in the middle and tried to do Brown Slabs Arete but chickened out and went right instead of left, ending up doing something more like Brown Slabs Face. Then we tried to do the normal Brown Slabs route as a single pitch, but ended up under the fissure, rather than on it (or the alternative out to the left) which made it a lot harder. Then finally we tried something up the left (Brown Slabs Direct I believe) which was brilliant although my stance was a little high and didn't leave Caroline far to lead on the second pitch.
So our first day out on our own and we remembered everything – this climbing outdoors stuff really is fun!
The following day it rained – lots – so we came home.

21 February 2019 / SF News / Jay Barmann
Coast Guard Officer Found With Kill List That Included Kamala Harris and Nancy Pelosi
A lieutenant in the U.S. Coast Guard who was arrested on gun and drug charges last week was found to have an arsenal in his home and a hit list that included multiple Democratic figures including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Sen. Kamala Harris.
Lt. Christopher Paul Hasson, 49, is appearing in federal court today, as ABC 7 reports, and is now facing charges of domestic terrorism.
A court filing by prosecutors on Tuesday requests that Hasson be held until trial because he poses a potential threat and intended "to murder innocent civilians on a scale rarely seen in this country."
The filing also pointed to a letter found on Hasson's computer, drafted in 2017, in which he allegedly wrote, "I am dreaming of a way to kill almost every last person on the earth. I think a plague would be most successful but how do I acquire the needed / Spanish flu, botulism, anthrax not sure yet but will find something."
As the New York Times reports, Hasson is a self-described white nationalist, and he also drafted a hit list of prominent individuals he deemed "traitors." These included Democratic presidential hopefuls Harris, Corey Booker, and Elizabeth Warren (whom he listed as "Poca Warren"), as well as Pelosi, House Representatives Ilhan Omar, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Maxine Waters, and Senator Richard Blumenthal (whom he listed as "Sen blumen jew").
The list also included media figures like CNN's Van Jones, Don Lemon, and Chris Cuomo.
Hasson wrote in that letter to friends that he intended to start a race war, and added, "Much blood will have to be spilled to get whitey off the couch."
The letter was composed not long after the deadly incidents in Charlottesville, Virginia, and Hasson further said he hoped to establish a "white homeland" in the Pacific northwest through the use of "focused violence."
Authorities found 15 guns and over 1,000 rounds of ammunition at Hasson's Maryland home, as well as a stash of illegal narcotics and steroids that prosecutors say he was collecting in order to aid in the execution of his violent plans.
Among his many internet searches over the last two years, Hasson searched "civil war if Trump impeached."
As the Washington Post reports, Hasson has been employed at U.S. Coast Guard headquarters in Washington since 2016, and previously served in the Marine Corps and the Army National Guard.
Court filings suggest that Hasson had been studying the 1,500-page manifesto written by right-wing Norwegian terrorist Anders Behring Breivik, who murdered 77 people in Norway in 2011. According to the Post, Hasson's recent actions "echoed Breivik's attack preparations."
It remains unclear what prompted federal authorities to arrest Hasson on Friday and search his home.

Southern New England Telecommunications Corporation (SNET) started operations in 1986 as the holding company for The Southern New England Telephone Company. Prior to 1986, The Southern New England Telephone Company had been a minority holding of AT&T until February 1986, when AT&T withdrew its 23% holding. SNET then became its own company, operating a telecommunications sales division, Sonecor Systems Division, which began operations on January 1, 1983, and sold equipment in competition with AT&T before the Bell System divestiture. SNET also operated SNET America, which sold long-distance services to Southern New England Telephone customers within Connecticut.

Under threats of a hostile takeover, Southern New England Telephone underwent a restructuring in 1986, creating Southern New England Telecommunications as the holding company of SNET and its related businesses.

Southern New England Telecommunications was acquired by SBC Communications in 1998.

SNET Corporation was merged into AT&T Teleholdings, formerly Ameritech, in 2006 and ceased to exist.

Sale of former assets
On December 17, 2013, AT&T announced plans to sell the former subsidiaries of SNET, The Southern New England Telephone Company and long-distance subsidiary SNET America, to Frontier Communications for $2 billion. The transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2014.

Over on 12 Months in View we are starting a new month of challenges beginning with an introductory page for July.
The flower of the month is the dandelion and last year I seemed to take a lot of photos of dandelions so for this page I decided to collage them together using Publisher and then to put a quote on the top before printing it out.
The problem with using something like Publisher rather than Photoshop is that you can't 'tear' and layer so it all looks a bit rectangular. However I like how the yellow pops out of the green and grey.
I love dandelions (as you can tell from the scavenger hunt badge).

OPSEU applauds Bloodwatch.org for campaign to block paid-donor blood clinics
OTTAWA, March 8, 2016 /CNW/ - The president of the Ontario Public Service Employees Union has thrown his support behind Bloodwatch.org, a lobby group fighting to ban for-profit paid-donor blood clinics in every province.
"If there is one lesson Canadians learned from the Krever inquiry on tainted blood scandal from the 1990s, it's that blood must not be bought and sold – it is a public resource," Warren (Smokey) Thomas said. "Bloodwatch.org deserves the support of all Canadians who believe in a not-for-profit, public blood collection system."
The group, made up of tainted blood survivors and allies, is calling on Health Canada to withdraw its permit for a private paid-donor blood clinic in Saskatoon. The group also wants Ottawa to pass legislation to outlaw such clinics across Canada.
Members of Bloodwatch.org lobbied Senators and MPs on Parliament Hill Monday.
Sean Allen, chair of the OPSEU division that represents more than 3,000 workers at Canadian Blood Services (CBS), said Health Canada is acting recklessly by opening up the blood supply system to profit-seekers.
"The current system in place meets 100 per cent of Canada's plasma needs," said Allen. "Four per cent of Canadians regularly donate their blood; why does the federal government want to create a two-tier collection system when the demand doesn't exist?
"I fear where this is heading," he said. "Private, for-profit clinics could jeopardize the safety of the blood system by repeating the tragedy of the 1980s when thousands lost their lives through blood contaminated with HIV and Hepatitis C."

As follows from the analysis of law that governs the activity of commercial undertakings, the audit committee is not the only controlling body that could be established by a company with limited liability; the law allows creating other controlling bodies alongside the audit committee.

Brachycephalus Guide
The Brachyzephalus represents a deformation of the skull, which is brought about by the premature ossification of the coronal suture. The head appears round due to its shortness and width. Since the brain is restricted in its growth by this deformation of the skull, the brachycephalus must be treated surgically at an early stage.
What is Brachycephalus?
According to psyknowhow, the term brachycephalus comes from the Greek and means "round-headed" or "short-headed". The term brachycephaly can also be used synonymously for this term. The cause is uneven skull growth due to premature closure of the coronary suture.
Several head shapes are distinguished within the normal population. These are long skulls (dolichocephalus), middle skulls (mesocephalus) and short skulls (brachycephalus). If these skull shapes are extremely pronounced, there is a pathological disorder of skull growth. In anthropology, the shape of the skull plays a major role in determining ancestry.
The Karolyi measuring method has established itself. This measurement, also known as the skull index or cranial index, determines the ratio of the greatest head width to the greatest head length. The resulting length-width index ranges from 70/75 for a long skull to 80/85 for a short skull. If this index range is left, pathological skull deformations are present.
Brachycephalus is caused by the premature ossification of the coronary suture. The peripheral suture, also called coronary suture, is a connective tissue-like suture between the front part of the skull (os frontale) and the two rear parts of the skullcap (ossa parietalia). Usually the ossification of the sutures begins in the second year of life and usually ends between the sixth and eighth year of life.
However, if the coronary suture closes prematurely, the skull will stop growing in length. As a compensation, the skull then increases in height, which leads to the formation of a so-called tower skull (turricephalus). Premature suture closure is also known as craniostenosis.
Brachycephalus is just one form of craniostenosis. In many cases, the causes of craniostenoses are not known. They can occur, among other things, in the context of genetic diseases such as Apert syndrome or Crouzon's disease. Often they appear in isolation as the only symptom.
In these cases, intrauterine developmental disorders probably play a role. Even with disorders of the bone metabolism, premature suture closure and thus craniostenosis can occur. It was also found that smoking during pregnancy can lead to undesirable developments.
Symptoms, ailments & signs
The symptoms depend on the severity of the brachycephalus. The earlier the coronary suture ossifies, the stronger the corresponding deformations. Intracranial pressure is critical to the development of the brain. The growth of the brain against the skull that is too small is called intracranial pressure.
As a rule, the growth of the skull adapts to the growth of the brain. This is made possible by the unsealed connective tissue-like seams in the top of the skull. The suture expands, stimulating the growth of the skull. However, if a suture closes too early, brain development can suffer. Brachycephalus is also often associated with impaired vision.
Brachycephalus is diagnosed by measuring the skull index. If this is over 85, it can be assumed to be pathologically short-headed. In addition, imaging methods such as X-rays and CT examinations are used. With a CT, the skull can be displayed in three dimensions.
This proves to be helpful in planning therapy. The diagnostics also include examinations for possible brain damage. For this purpose, an EEG is recorded, among other things. In addition, eye exams and examinations for possible neurological failures must also take place.
When should you go to the doctor?
In most cases, these symptoms are diagnosed relatively early or immediately after the child is born. Early treatment and diagnosis of this disease has a very positive effect on its course and can completely limit various complaints and complications. As a rule, a doctor must then be consulted if the patient's skull bones become ossified or deformed. In most cases, these are easily visible or palpable.
Slow development of the child can also indicate brain problems, so this complaint should also be investigated. As a rule, a general practitioner or a pediatrician can be consulted. The further diagnosis, however, is made through an X-ray. The therapy requires surgical interventions, so this treatment is usually carried out in a hospital. With an early operation, later complications and consequences can be avoided. For this reason, regular examinations by a doctor are very important, especially with children.
Treatment & Therapy
Brachycephalus can only be completely corrected with early surgery. Incidentally, this also applies to all other craniosis. The affected sections of the skull are remodeled. To plan the operation, a model can be created beforehand from the CT data.
During the operation, the bony skull must first be opened. This procedure is called a craniotomy. In the case of brachycephalus, this operation is also associated with a craniectomy. In this process, parts of the roof of the skull are neurosurgically removed in order to reconstruct them and then reimplant them.
Resorbable plastic plates or screws are usually used to reconstruct the shape of the skull. Since these materials are resorbed, no further interventions are necessary later. The procedure should be performed between seven and twelve months of age. At this age, the results of the operation are usually so good that the shape of the skull can even be completely adjusted.
In the case of those affected, the deviating skull shapes are no longer noticeable later. This early treatment can also prevent brain damage. Subsequent corrections to an already hardened skull deformation cannot reverse brain damage that has already occurred. The adaptation of the skull shape is then no longer so successful.
Outlook & forecast
The prognosis for brachycephalus is good with the use of medical treatment. The deformation of the head is corrected in a surgical procedure. If there are no other illnesses, the patient is discharged as cured after the subsequent healing process has ended.
The operation is extensive and takes several hours with trained and experienced doctors. In addition, it is associated with the usual risks and side effects of an operation under general anesthesia. If the child is in good health and has a stable immune system according to its age, it can take part in everyday life again within a few weeks after the operation. A rest should still take place over several months.
Without medical care, the prognosis is very poor. In severe cases, the patient may die. The head is so deformed that the brain has too little space inside the head within the natural growth and development process. Blood vessels constrict, headache occurs, and pressure in the head is increased.
If no immediate action is taken, the blood will stagnate. As the disease progresses, blood vessels burst and the patient experiences a stroke. In addition to lifelong impairments, there is a risk of premature death of the patient without immediate intensive medical care.
Since the causes of brachycephalus and all craniostenoses are usually not known, there are no strategies for its prevention. The deformations often occur in the context of genetic diseases. In the case of familial accumulation, the risk for the offspring can possibly be estimated in the context of a human genetic examination.
Intrauterine developmental disorders can also be triggered by environmental toxins and drugs. It is known that smoking during pregnancy can lead to these disorders. Therefore, you should not smoke or drink alcohol during pregnancy.

Brachycephalus manifests itself in infants, so that the patients themselves play a subordinate role in self-help. Rather, it is the parents of the sick child who, with their care and their decisions, have a significant influence on the course of the disease and the later quality of life of the patient.
The most necessary operation on the skull is to be performed as early as possible, and it is a difficult procedure. If possible, the parents accompany the sick child during the stay in the hospital. Adequate medication is necessary to relieve pain.
Even after the operation, regular follow-up examinations are necessary over a long period of time. The parents are usually exposed to considerable emotional stress due to the child's brachycephalus and sometimes develop depression or other mental illnesses. That is why it makes sense to have custodians treated by a psychotherapist in order to ensure that the patient is looked after.
If the operation to correct the brachycephalus is not carried out or is carried out too late, some patients experience disturbances in the development of the brain. In addition, visual disturbances are possible, which in turn must be treated accordingly. At an advanced age, patients regularly visit ophthalmologists and opticians and use appropriate visual aids.

Denmark recently appointed a new government and thus also a new Minister for Development, Mr. Christian Friis Bach. During his first week in office he launched a new approach to Danish development support. A step which caused a fierce debate among Danish politicians, NGOs and development professionals.
Zitto Kabwe, one of the leading opposition politicians in Tanzania says yes to a development support with less demands from Denmark. But on the condition that parlamentarians and independent, local organizations (NGOs) get a share of the money.
With 727 millions DKK in assistance from Denmark Tanzania last year received the majority of the Danish development assistance. The country's maybe next Minister of Finance, Zitto Kabwe, from the opposition party Chadema (Party for Democracy and Development) welcomes Denmark's new Minister for Development, Christian Friis Bach's, approach in regard of allowing developing countries to decide what the total 16 billion DKK, which Denmark annually gives in foreign aid, should be used for.
"It's a good idea to give developing countries control of donor money. But it must be combined with strengthening both parliament and independent, local organizations" states Zitto Kabwe, designated as "Shadow Finance Minister," and who may have the important post as Minister of Finance, if the opposition wins the next election.
Zitto Kabwe suggests that using a fifth of support from the rich countries to strengthen parliaments and local NGOs, while the developíng countries' own governments will be responsible themselves for distributing the remaining 80 per cent.
"We have to assure that Danish tax payers' money is not wasted. In this way one can guarantee that there will greater transparency and control of money – while we get a greater accountability – because if the government is allowed to distribute money itself it will thus feel a much greater sense of ownership for the entire development," says the Tanzanian politician.
According to Zitto Kabwe about 30 percent of public donor funds disappear in Tanzania and are not accounted for. And in a country, which annually receives 8 -10 billions DKK in foreign aid from different countries, it really is a lot of money.
"By giving ourselves the responsibility the waste will be much smaller, and we will get more out of money," he assesses.
Zitto Kabwe also believes in the idea of a greater level to support local citizens' rights which Christian Friis Bach also announced – it corresponds well with giving a higher degree of responsibility for foreign aid to developing countries themselves.
In contrast to the Danish Minister for Development the only 35-year-old Zitto Kabwe does not believe that it necessarily will lead to more demonstrations and provide more turmoil to strengthen local residents and organizations.
"On the one hand, the Minister expresses the wish that he will increase block grants to developing countries and then leave it up to the countries themselves to decide what the money is for. On the other hand, he says he will be a "minister for rights" and promote civil rights. Thus it may not be such a good idea to give money to governments'', says Jacob Ellemann- Jensen.
"In the Danish Liberal Party we would also like to give developing countries greater participation in order to avoid paternalism. But I find it difficult seeing how the announcement from Christian Friis Bach works.

Celles is een plaats in de provincie Namen, in het Waalse landsgedeelte van België. Het is een deelgemeente van de gemeente Houyet. Het dorp is opgenomen in de lijst van de mooiste plaatsjes in Wallonië (Les Plus Beaux Villages de Wallonie).

Geschiedenis
De omgeving van Celles was al vroeg bewoond. Er zijn sporen teruggevonden van menselijke aanwezigheid in het Neolithicum en de Romeinse tijd. Rond het midden van de 7de eeuw vestigde de (later heilig verklaarde) monnik Hadelinus er zich als kluizenaar. Van zijn kluis (in het latijn: "cella") is de plaatsnaam "Celles" afgeleid. Doordat volgelingen zich bij hem voegden, groeide de kluis uit tot een kloostertje, dat later omgevormd werd tot een kapittel van kanunniken. Dat kapittel liet in de 11de eeuw een kerk optrekken die aan de heilige Hadelinus toegewijd was. Deze kerk, die tot op vandaag bewaard bleef en nu parochiekerk is, is een mooi voorbeeld van de Romaanse bouwkunst in de Maasstreek en een van de belangrijke monumenten van Wallonië. Van het einde van de 12de tot het einde van de 18de eeuw behoorde Celles toe aan de adellijke familie Beaufort, die in de 13de eeuw even buiten het dorp het monumentale en thans nog bewaarde kasteel van Vêves bouwde. In de Franse tijd (eind 18de eeuw) werd Celles een zelfstandige gemeente. In 1977 maakten de gemeentefusies een einde aan die zelfstandigheid en werd de plek een deelgemeente van Houyet. Tijdens de Slag om de Ardennen in december 1944 was Celles het verste punt tot waar de Duitse Tweede Pantserdivisie doorstootte; een tank bij het belangrijkste kruispunt van het dorp herinnert hieraan.

The self-designation of the people living on the River Amur is Nivh and on Sakhalin Island it is N'ivhgn-N'igvn, which means 'man'. In older literature they are known as Gilyak, the name given them by their neighbours, the Manchus (Gilyami-Gileke). Various Nivkh tribes have also named themselves according to the area they are settled in, for example Chombing -- 'the people on the River Chom' and Mybing -- 'the people on the River My'. Since the 1930s, when the Soviet national policy took to calling ethnic groups by their self-designations, the name Nivkh has been officially adopted in Russian.
The earliest historical data concerning the Nivkhs dates back to a 12th century Chinese chronicle. The people called Tszi-lya-mi on the Lower Amur mentioned in the chronicle are evidently Nivkhs. In the 17th century, the Nivkhs are referred to in the reports written by the Russian Cossacks (Vasily Poyarkov 1643--46, Yerofey Khabarov, etc).
Habitat. The Nivkhs live in the Far East, on the Lower Amur, on the coast of the Ohkotsk Sea on the river's estuary, and on Sakhalin Island (Yh-mif in the Nivkh language). In the administrative sense, they belong to the Khabarovsk district of the Russian Federation (the districts of Takhatin and Lower Amur), and Sakhalin region (the districts of Rybinov, Kirov, Alexandrov and Shirokopad). In the past, their habitation was more extensive. The Nivkh population is not compact and they mostly live side by side with the Russians or the Negidal people.
A monsoon climate prevails on the lowlands of the Lower Amur. There is abundant snow in winter but the summers are warm and humid. The average temperature in July is 12 to 16 °C and in January -- 15 to 25 °C.
The population of the Nivkhs appears to have remained relatively stable. Omitted from the data is the fact that in 1926, 111 Nivkhs lived on the Japanese part of Sakhalin Island, so at that time the true total number of Nivkhs was 4,187. Although the number of the Nivkhs has not diminished, the decrease in the number of native speakers is an ominous sign.
Anthropologically the Nivkhs belong to the Sakhalin-Amur subgroup of the Mongoloid racial type. They are of short stature (men approx. 160 cm). They have a broad flat face, a snub nose and thick lips. Unlike other Mongoloid peoples, they have a relatively dark skin, and dark eyes and hair. They have remarkably dense beards, a supposed influence of the Ainu.
The Nivkh language belongs to the Paleo-Asian languages as a separate unit, unconnected to any other group or subgroup. It is connected to the Chukchi-Kamchatkan and Altai languages by typological similarities and, in the opinion of several academics, also to North American Indian languages. The neighbours of the Nivkhs speak widely different Manchu languages (Ulchi, Orochi, Nanai). Three different dialects can be distinguished within the Nivkh language: a) Amur, b) East Sakhalin and c) North Sakhalin.
The Amur and the East Sakhalin dialects contain notable differences in phonetics, grammar and vocabulary. They have even been presumed to be two different languages. The North Sakhalin dialect is placed somewhere in between the other two. The dialects, in their turn, can be subdivided into local vernaculars.
In the areas of life central to the Nivkhs' existence (nature, the sea, weather, fishing, hunting) the language is remarkably rich in its native stock of words. There are only a few loans from the Manchu-Tungus or Paleo-Asian languages. However, vocabulary connected with newer occupations (e.g. agriculture, cattle-breeding, horticulture), is pervaded with loans from the Russian language.
History. The Nivkhs are considered to be the descendants of the oldest neolithic population of the Lower Amur and Sakhalin Island. They retained their independence from the states of China and Manchu, but, at the same time, retained fruitful trade and cultural relations. Through living within the theoretical sphere of influence of China, 17th and 18th century Russian expeditions did not result in the annexation of the Amur region to Russia. The authority of the Russian Emperor only came to encompass the Nivkhs after the 1858 Aikhun and 1860 Peking treaties, when the entire Amur and Ussur regions fell to the Russians. The Nivkhs have always interacted and traded with all their neighbouring peoples. An important Chinese and Manchu influence (e.g. in architecture, clothing, food) is manifest in Nivkh folk culture and, to a lesser degree, some Ainu and Japanese influence (mainly on Sakhalin Island). In the 20th century, the influence of Russian culture has considerably increased.
The Soviet regime brought substantial changes to the Nivkh way of life. The first major reshaping occurred with the introduction of forced mass collectivization (the first kolkhoz, Chir-unvd, 'New Life', was founded in 1930). The system of winter and summer settlements, developed to maximise the benefits of local resources, was abandoned. By a deliberate manipulation of the system of wages and salaries, the Nivkhs were forced to leave the sea and become lumbermen or agricultural labourers. In 1960 in the Noglik district, for example, there were 130 Nivkh fishermen, in 1978 there were only 27, and in 1988, only 10. Nivkh fishermen believed that hurting the earth (i.e. ploughing) was a sin, and therefore they sought to resist collectivization and resettlement. When by 1938, the "kulaks and enemies of the people" had been eliminated, the kolkhoz consisted of 50 households. Next began the forcible uniting of the small settlements into larger units. This took place during the 1950s and 1960s. The purely Nivkh settlements of Piltun, Chaivo and Vensk etc. were "closed". In the 1960s and 1970s, the atmosphere was particularly oppressive on Sakhalin. A slogan, "Sakhalin is ancient Russian soil!", had initially been employed as anti-Japanese rhetoric but its ideology was also an affront to the native population of Sakhalin, since they, also, were not Russian. Nowadays, the Nivkhs live in villages and towns of mixed population, in Russian-type dwelling-houses, they wear ready-made clothes, eat food bought at shops, and communicate in Russian. Only a handful of principally anthropological factors have so far averted their total assimilation.
Ethnic culture. Of all Nivkh traditions the most enduring are fishing and hunting. The importance of fish is best illustrated by the name once given to the Nivkhs of fish-eaters. For the coastal-dwelling Nivkhs, an additional occupation was the hunting of sea animals, especially seals. Dog breeding (for draught animals and for food) was also widespread. Traditional clothing and food, and also women's handicrafts, have to some extent been preserved. Changes in the structure of settlements have had a detrimental impact on traditional architecture.
Writing. In the 1880s, a Nivkh-Nanai primer was compiled by a missionary, Protodyakonov, but its use was limited. The activity of local primary schools was of a short duration (from 1895 to 1905). Under the Soviet regime, a Nivkh alphabet based on the Latin alphabet (1931) and a written language based on the Amur dialect were created. Utilizing these, a primer, Cuz-dif (New Word), a few primary school textbooks and 11 issues of a newspaper Nivhgn Mykyr Klaj-dif (The Nivkh Truth) were published. In 1953, the transition to the Russian alphabet was completed and a new primer published. At that point, unfortunately, the Nivkh written language was dissolved. The spoken language remained in the educational sphere a little longer, used in nursery classes, but soon it was banished from there on the pretext that, all children could speak Russian anyway and consequently there was no need for schooling in their mother tongue. With the abolition of native language schools, an ethnic mix of schoolchildren became additional justification for using Russian in schooling. The trend toward bilingualism begun in the 1930s, soon gained momentum: by 1959 the figure was 23 %. Russian is now by far the predominant language, and the Nivkhs are on their way from bilingualism back to monolingualism but this time with the Russian language. In the 1980s Ch. Taksami and M. Pukhta compiled a primer in the Amur dialect, V. Sangi published a primer and a reader in the East Sakhalin dialect.
Research. The study of the Nivkhs began in the 1890s, with L. Sternberg on Sakhalin. In 1900 he published part of his collected linguistic examples and later, in 1908, the main part The Study of Gilyak Language and Folklore. More detailed research has been made recently on the founding and development of the literary language, and collection and study in the field of linguistic material. In 1934, E. Kreinovich published his first survey of the Nivkh language. In the 60s V. Panfilov compiled an academic grammar book (1 -- 1962, 2 -- 1965). A Russian-Nivkh dictionary, compiled by V. Savelyeva and Ch. Taksami, was published in 1965 and a Nivkh-Russian dictionary in 1970. No information is available about monographs on dialects or folklore.


Kinda and Ydre municipalities, in close cooperation with The Swedish Peter Cassel Society and The Andrew Peterson Society, invite you to participate in the American Festival 2019. As early as 1845 the first group of emigrants left Kinda and Ydre for North America. This was the beginning of an extensive emigration from this part of Sweden.
They would be followed by a large number of people who left the country in an attempt to change their lives for the better. They left the security of their homes for a reality of which they knew very little.
The American Festival is about the dreams, courage and willpower of human beings. It is an event that connects the history of our municipalities but has grown to a week filled to the brim with entertainment and activities for all ages.
Yesteryear and today meet through theater, musik, cruises, lectures, guided tours, exhibitions, activities for children, outdoor cinema and lots more. The American Festival has been arranged in 2009, 2011, 2013 and 2015, 2017. Now we are looking forward to 2019.
We wish you hearty welcome!

Home / Blog / Rants / Easter Sale?
yeah, i know, we've said we'd never have sales…..
But here's the thing, when that decision was made, NOBODY in the fire community was advertising. In a world where competitors (and not just a small handful anymore) ALL advertise, it's really tough to keep the numbers up. And when the landlord comes a knockin, it's time for change.
First thing, we tried putting stuff on Amazon. That wasn't the best. Our Econo poi sell pretty well, but to match the Amazon fees we have to jack the prices up quite a bit. Now, this Easter sale is all about Facebook advertising. Bearclaw has the fewest "likes" of all the pages I manage, so I thought it was time to put a little love into it. i'd explore how post boosting worked by letting a post run it's course, then "boost" it with $20 and seeing the difference. then I ran into someone who used to run FB advertising help. He said that more likes meant more reach with a boost, so I ran a "like and share" campaign for a free prototype. That plus a couple people sending a lot of invites nearly doubled our likes. Now, it could be a coincidence, but after the first boost, and after the share campaign, we got a noticeable surge in business. go figure. So, we'll take a salary cut to keep the lights on. Beats working a "real" job.
why easter? Simple, I walked into store a couple years ago in Sept-fuggin-tember, and they had XMAS DECORATIONS. Not even Halloween! I decided there and then that I would step on that fat elf's holiday from then on. So, starting the day after thanksgiving, we hold our easter sale.
Next post: 3 part staves.
