Anheuser-Busch is paying six Idaho farmers to grow organic barley for its Michelob Ultra Pure Gold organic beer.
The beer launched in 2018, and the St. Louis-based company wants to expand it, but first it needs to ensure that there will be an adequate supply of organic grain, said Azania Andrews, vice president of marketing. The company’s Contract for Change program gives farmers the incentive to transition fields to organic barley, she said.
Idaho actually leads the nation in growing barley, at 34.6%, with Montana and North Dakota second and third, said Laura Wilder, administrator for the Boise-based Idaho Barley Commission. While Montana has more barley acreage, Idaho has higher yields because Montana barley is usually dry-farmed and Idaho barley is typically irrigated, meaning that Idaho produces more barley in total, she said.
Idaho has approximately 4,000 farmers who grow about 530,000 acres of barley, producing 53,530,000 bushels, Wilder said, citing a 2018 U.S. Department of Agriculture report. Of that, about 85 farmers are certified to grow organically and about 50 of them did, producing about 14,544 acres of organic barley, in 2016 figures, she said.
In addition, Idaho has three large malt plants – two in Idaho Falls owned by Anheuser-Busch, and one in Pocatello, Great Western Malting, Wilder said. About 75% of Idaho’s barley crop goes to malted barley, which is used to make beer – more than 12 million barrels, almost 380 million gallons, or 4 billion 12-ounce bottles of beer, she said. About half of Idaho’s barley goes to Anheuser-Busch, she said.
The six Idaho farmers are the first ones in the program, which will eventually produce 600 acres a year in Idaho organic barley. This is a drop in the beer barrel for Idaho’s barley crop, Wilder admitted.
“It’s a start and gives new opportunities to growers,” she said. “Anything to add value to a crop and new opportunities is positive.”
Organic barley grower certification takes three years and a lot of documentation to prove that pesticides and herbicides weren’t used on the crop in that period. Anheuser-Busch is promising to buy the transitional barley grown during that three-year period, as well as the organic barley at a premium after the certification process is complete, Andrews said. She did not say what the premium would be.
Anheuser-Busch’s team of 15 agronomists will help the six Idaho farmers transition to organic barley, Andrews said. That team also identified Idaho farmers with whom the company already had a relationship to gauge their interest in transitioning to organic barley. Some of the six have grown organically before, while others have not, she said.
“We started down the path of regenerative farming several years ago,” said Dan Lakey of Lakey Farms LLC in Soda Springs, which has been growing barley since its founding in 1945. “We haven’t yet started growing organic, but we feel that we need to grow the type of food that consumers demand, not what we feel they should consume. There’s an increase in demand for organic, locally grown, nutritionally dense food. Contract for Change gives us the opportunity to take that a step further with organic malt barley, and fits right in line with our aspirations and goals for the farm.”
Michelob Ultra Pure Gold is the only organic product made by a major brewer, though some craft breweries make organic beer, Andrews said. The brand ranks sixth in growth, with sales up 220% over the previous year, she said.
Organic beer also requires that other ingredients, such as hops, are organic, but Anheuser-Busch is not creating a similar program for hops at this time, Andrews said.
“As we learn and evolve, we may move to other ingredients in the beer,” she said.
Idaho was the second-largest producer of hops in the U.S. after Washington in 2018. Oregon came in third.

Was your last evening all about watching cricket on the TV screen? Indeed, an awesome game by the KL Rahul-led Indian cricket team as the country defeated Zimbabwe by 13 runs at the third ODI, completing a 3-0 series sweep.
After the victory, it marked the time for celebration. Shikhar Dhawan took to Instagram to hint on the enjoyment and happy mood after the win. In the social media reel, the Indian cricket team members were seen dancing to the hit song 'Kala Chashma' from the movie 'Baar Baar Dekho'.
It's been six years since the beat released and the became a party-favourite song. A few days ago, Excel Entertainment, the makers of 'Baar Baar Dekho' took to social media and shared the video of Hollywood singer Demi Lovato and the host of 'The Late Night Show' Jimmy Fallon dancing to 'Kala Chashma'.
'Baar Baar Dekho' is a 2016 release and the film has amassed love and adoration from the audience for its spectacular playlist which includes songs like ‘Kho Gye Hum Kahan’, ‘Sau Aasman’, ‘Dariya’, and ‘Kala Chashma’ among others. The film starred Sidharth Malhotra and Katrina Kaif in the lead roles.
Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani's production house Excel Entertainment is gearing up for the most awaited film 'Jee Le Zaraa'.

IN A WELCOME announcement, the administration has now said it will address the high-priority civil rights issue of enforcing the 15-year-old law against discrimination in housing sales and rentals. Under that law, complaints are subject to conciliation by the Department of Housing and Urban Development. But if conciliation fails, private individuals must bring their own lawsuits in court to enforce their rights. The Justice Department can sue only violators who engage in a widespread pattern or practice of discrimination.
It has been clear for some time that this enforcement mechanism is ineffective. Congress has in the past considered but not enacted remedial legislation. Last month, Sen. Charles Mathias and 37 cosponsors introduced a bill with the backing of the Leadership Conference on Civil Rights. Now HUD Secretary Pierce has released details of a forthcoming administration bill.
Both proposals provide a new enforcement mechanism for individuals whose rights have been violated. Both would continue to refer cases to state agencies where appropriate. Both look to conciliation as a first step. Under either bill, a plaintiff could apply for a temporary restraining order to prevent the sale or rental of the housing in question during adjudication of the claim. Sen. Mathias proposes civil penalties of up to $10,000 on a first offense; the administration bill allows a $50,000 penalty in such circumstances.
The major difference between the two bills is the method of enforcement. The Mathias bill authorizes administrative law judges to receive complaints and issue orders. Their decisions would be reviewable first by a new Fair Housing Review Commission and eventually by federal courts of appeals. Civil rights groups believe that this kind of specialized administrative enforcement is faster than court suits. The administration disagrees: the bill Secretary Pierce describes would have the Justice Department bring suit in federal court on behalf of individuals when the HUD secretary so recommends. The essential element, though, is in both bills: the burden of enforcement is on the government rather than on the individual victim.
Administration action on fair housing is not only appropriate and right, it is politically smart. No less so is a recent announcement by Assistant Attorney General William Bradford Reynolds that he will tour Mississippi with black leaders to investigate possible violations of the Voting Rights Act. Steps like these counter the widely held belief that this administration has been at best indifferent to civil rights concerns that affect not only minorities but the general perception of American society as just and fair.

Interpretive Summary: Downy mildew is a primary constraint to production of various cucurbit crops. In this article, we present a review of the current knowledge of the epidemiology and biology of the disease and its casual pathogen. The importance of long-distance dispersal to epidemic development is highlighted, along with implications for detection, disease prediction, and management. An important aspect of responding to this downy mildew and others is research capacity and coordination of stakeholders, researchers, and extension personnel. Concepts and approaches developed in this pathosystem can guide future efforts when responding to incursions of new or re-emerging downy mildew pathogens.
Technical Abstract: The resurgence of cucurbit downy mildew has dramatically influenced production of cucurbits and disease management systems at multiple scales. Long-distance dispersal is a fundamental aspect of epidemic development that influences the timing and extent of disease outbreaks. Dispersal potential of the pathogen appears to be limited primarily by sporangia production in source fields, sporangia survival during transport, and availability of susceptible hosts. Uncertainty remains regarding the role of locally produced inoculum in disease outbreaks, but evidence suggests multiple sources of primary inoculum could be important. Understanding pathogen diversity and population differentiation is a critical aspect of disease management and an active research area. Underpinning advances in our understanding of pathogen biology and disease management has been the research capacity and coordination of stakeholders, researchers, and extension personnel. Concepts and approaches developed in this pathosystem can guide future efforts when responding to incursions of new or re-emerging downy mildew pathogens.

Today, he's back with "20 Missed Calls," a song he says is about focusing on doing what he has to in order to stay consistent. He links up with producer Crystal Caines—who worked on A$AP Ferg's Trap Lord album, among other projects—for a slow-burner about only picking up the hotline bling when it's about money.
While he's prepping a project to drop at the top of 2016, expect a few more loosies before then. For now, stream "20 Missed Calls" below:

Sony Ericsson inks Q1 profit, says some Japan effects
STOCKHOLM, April 19
STOCKHOLM, April 19 (Reuters) - Mobile phone maker Sony Ericsson posted a surprise first-quarter profit on Tuesday, despite supply chain disruption due to the Japan earthquake, and said higher margins had offset lower sales.
Sony Ericsson, owned by Ericsson (ERICb.ST) and Sony Corp. (6758.T), posted pretax profit of 15 million euros ($21.31 million) on sales of 1.1 billion.
Analysts in a Reuters poll had a mean forecast for a pretax loss of 24 million euros and sales of 1.3 billion.
Sony Ericsson had warned at the end of last year that a lack of new smartphones would make the start of the year tough.

A Palestinian father of 6 is in critical condition after over 100 days of hunger strike. Forty-nine-year old Maher Al-Akhras is protesting against Israel’s use of administrative detention, and demands to be set free.
Please take a few minutes of your time to send this email (or a version of it) to our incoming Foreign Minister Nanaia Mahua at email@example.com
Free Maher Al-Akhras & end Israeli administrative detention
Kia ora Minister Mahuta,
Congratulations on your new role as Foreign Minister, it is exciting that Aotearoa will be represented on the international stage by a strong, wahine Minister.
I appreciate that one of the heavier responsibilities of your Ministerial role is to draw attention to human rights abuses and hold foreign states accountable for their failure to adhere to the principles of international law. It is with this in mind that I want to draw your attention to the plight of Palestinian father of 6, Maher al-Akhras, who is in imminent danger of death having spent over 100 days on hunger strike in protest against Israel’s use of administrative detention against him.
As I am sure you are aware, administrative detention is a barbaric procedure that runs against all principles of international law. It allows Israel to hold prisoners on “secret” information without charging them or allowing them access to a fair trial. And the detention can be extended indefinitely. Introduced into the former state of Palestine by the British colonial power, administrative detention has become a key tool of the Israeli military occupation and is used to extend and defend its settler colonial project in Palestine.
According to the Palestinian prisoners rights organization Addameer, Israel currently holds over 4,400 Palestinian political prisoners, 350 administrative detainees, and 155 child prisoners. It is well documented that Israel uses torture and ill-treatment regularly against Palestinian detainees, including children. Over 73% of children experience physical violence after arrest, and 96% are interrogated without a family member or lawyer present. (See Defense for Children International – Palestine)
The Palestinian Human Rights Organizations Council (PHROC) said that Maher al-Akhras is “facing a serious and imminent threat to his life at Kaplan Medical Center… Maher has been experiencing frequent seizures, acute headaches, significant weakness in his vision and hearing, in addition to severe pain all over his body, especially his chest area.” Despite this, Israel continues to keep Maher detained under armed guard.
Michael Lynk, the UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the occupied Palestinian territory, has called for the immediate release of Maher al-Akhras, and an end to Israel’s illegal practice of administrative detention. Lynk stated:
“Administrative detention is an anathema in any democratic society that follows the rule of law. When the democratic state arrests and detains someone, it is required to charge the person, present its evidence in an open trial, allow for a full defence and try to persuade an impartial judiciary of its allegations beyond a reasonable doubt.
Administrative detention, in contrast, allows a state to arrest and detain a person without charges, without a trial, without knowing the evidence against her or him, and without a fair judicial review. It is a penal system that is ripe for abuse and maltreatment.”
Without access to legal counsel or due process it is not surprising that many Palestinian prisoners in administrative detention choose to protest with measures of last resort like the hunger strike. Clearly, Maher does not want to die. His actions are intended to draw attention to his plight and to call on the international community to act to end Israel’s barbaric treatment of Palestinian prisoners, and the unlawful use of administrative detention. The end of this month, the 29th of November, marks UN Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People. Please show your solidarity with the Palestinian people and make the following one of your first actions as Foreign Minister:
– Call on Israel to immediately release Maher al-Akhras.
– Call on Israel to end its practice of administrative detention and ensure Palestinians are guaranteed their right to a fair trial.
– Make all New Zealand trade deals with Israel conditional on respecting human rights and international law, including the treatment of prisoners.

The Minister of Natural Resources and Environmental Conservation, U Ti Reh, said they were patrolling to see if anyone is working in hazardous areas as some landslides are likely to occur at the Mawchi mining area.
“We are setting up the signs and posters saying ‘This is a danger zone; it can be dangerous’, and providing awareness workshop. Besides, in Mawchi, our group joins with the multigroup, and we are patrolling once in a day and once in a night time in order to prevent from the mining and working in those restricted areas,” said U Ti Reh, the Minister of Natural Resources and Environmental Conservation.
Landslides have been frequented in recent years, with some deaths. During the rainy season, most people stopped digging for lead, but some continued to work for a living. Many are moving to safer areas due to the risk of landslides in the rainy season.
“On the KB 1 zone, there are about 17 houses relocated to the village. No.2 area is also relocated to the village. They said it was raining heavily so that they are worrying about a landslide,” said Daw Magret Sein, a villager of Yu Kaw Kho (Hillside-13) Village.
Minister of Natural Resources and Environmental Conservation, U Ti Reh, said the area are currently being rehabilitated.
“Concerned with the question how to prevent the landslides is that we have to build a retaining wall where the landslides probably occur. We will improve the flow of water. The danger zone will be fenced after the danger zones are identified. That is how we prevent landslides,” U Ti Reh said.
In the Kayah State Annual Report 2019 related to their project implementation, progress, and public’s social welfare and development, it mentioned that the Kayah State Department of Mines is approved with the permission of the Union to produce the tin-tungsten (wolfram), and shed light ores in Kayah State with (13) mining zones plus (4) mining zones approved from the State Mining Zone Auditing Group.
During the four-year period – from 2016-17 fiscal year to 2019-20 fiscal year, it was permitted to implement the mining; (8) blocks (less than 50 acres) of mini project and one block of micro project on lead and tungsten mining.See TranslationSeen by everyoneLikeComment

As theatre actors, we’ve more than likely been part of one of those productions where the rehearsal process is a disaster, but then magically comes together on opening night. No movie portrays this better than John Cassavetes’ film, Opening Night. Gena Rowlands is other-wordly great. It’s brutal to watch at times, but worth it for her performance alone.
While not ideal conditions, what is it that enables these productions to come together? Is it that chaos can become fuel? Or is it simply that by virtue of setting a date, you’re on the hook? Just like taking a test, it’s happening on the day. Pass or fail, disaster or triumph, you’re still going up. Knowing this and employing Parkinson’s Law, everyone pulls it together at the last minute.
But the only way magic can ever occur…is when you actually set a date in the first place.

DURING TODAY’S WORKSHOP…
One ought, every day at least, to hear a little song, read a good poem, see a fine picture, and if it were possible, to speak a few reasonable words.
— Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
We discussed the difference between reading poetry and hearing it. We started our preparation for the Poetry Slam.
Date/Time/Place for Poetry Slam: _____________________________________
My role in the Slam: ________________________________________________REFLECTION QUESTION:
You can write a poem and keep it to yourself, and you will know exactly what it means to you. Once you share it with someone else, however, you lose control over its meaning as the audience will have its own interpretation. What does that feel like?EXPLORE THE TOPICS FURTHER WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS…
· Make sure your family knows what is expected of you in your role in the Poetry Slam. If you will need transportation or other help, ask family members and friends for support. Do not forget to invite them to the Poetry Slam.
· If you have never been to a Poetry Slam, ask your family and friends if they have and, if so, what it was like. Better yet, locate a poetry slam or poetry reading in your town or city and invite family, friends, and other workshop participants to attend it with you. If you cannot locate a reading nearby, check your local TV listings or rent a DVD, such as the Poetry Hall of Fame Collection, from Netflix or a video store.

Vancouver Port bans scrubber wash water discharge
On 1 March 2022, the Vancouver Fraser Port Authority’s new restrictions on the discharge of scrubber wash water at the Port of Vancouver went into effect.
Under the new guidelines formally outlined in the port information guide, ships at berth or at anchor within the Port of Vancouver are prohibited from discharging scrubber wash water.
To meet these new requirements, ships must either hold their scrubber wash water on board, switch to low-sulphur fuel, or connect to shore power, which is available at the Canada Place, Deltaport, and Centerm terminals.
Scrubber wash water is the byproduct of ship exhaust gas cleaning systems, which are commonly known as “scrubbers.” Scrubbers are used to remove sulphur and other contaminants from ships’ fuel exhaust to comply with the International Maritime Organization’s 2020 regulation limiting sulphur content in marine fuel.
When scrubber wash water is released into the marine environment, it can have toxic impacts on marine life due to the presence of pollutants such as metals, hydrocarbons, and sulphurous and nitrous acids, which can accumulate in the food web and negatively impact the health of marine ecosystems.
In 2019, the port authority commissioned a third-party study to assess the impacts of scrubber wash water on local ecosystems within the Port of Vancouver. This study found that the discharge of scrubber wash water could result in levels of certain contaminants that exceed thresholds set for the protection of aquatic life. As a result, in 2021, the port authority advised industry, Indigenous groups and other stakeholders of its intention to implement restrictions on the discharge of scrubber wash water.
In addition to restricting the discharge of scrubber wash water while ships are at berth or at anchor, the port authority plans to implement two additional phases of restrictions on scrubbers at the Port of Vancouver.
The second phase of restrictions will prohibit the discharge of scrubber wash water in all waters within the port authority’s jurisdiction, while the third phase will fully prohibit the use of scrubber systems within the Port of Vancouver.
Last year, the Port of Vancouver, together with other Northwest ports including British Columbia, Tacoma and Seattle, has committed to phasing out emissions from seaport-related activities by 2050.
In a collaboration among the four ports, the Northwest Ports Clean Air Strategy seeks to meet this target through changes in equipment, fuels, and infrastructure.

Police: Kroger customer threatened woman at gunpoint
Police arrested a woman early Tuesday evening at a South Nashville Kroger after she was accused of threatening an employee there at gunpoint.
Amy Jaudon was at the Western Union counter in the Nashboro Village Kroger on Murfreesboro Pike when a fight broke out with a clerk, according to an arrest warrant charging Jaudon with aggravated assault.
Jaudon, 43, is accused of using a racial slur and slapping the victim, according to the warrant. After staffers separated the pair, Jaudon was accused of threatening to kill the clerk.
In the parking lot, Jaudon pulled a gun and “waved it around” while threatening the clerk, who was also outside, according to the warrant.
Jaudon was arrested and booked into jail on a $15,000 bond.

After waiting many, many months for a hearing, most claimants are disappointed to hear that it can take several months after the hearing to received their benefits.
In Florida, most judges take between 1-3 months to issue their written decision. If it is a favorable decision, the case is then sent to the payment processing center, where it can take another 1-3 months for benefits to be issued. Sometimes, Social Security will begin issuing monthly benefits but is not able to release the back payments for several more months while they investigate if the claimant received any Supplemental Security Income benefits. If you have a claim for Supplemental Security Income benefits, you will have to call or go to your local Social Security office for an appointment before your benefits can be released.
While there are no rules requiring that Social Security release your benefit within a certain amount of time, if you have not received your benefits 60 days after your hearing, you should call your local Social Security office or your disability lawyer for assistance.

“Talking about sexual assault can be conceptualized as a political act….. “
Sarah Ullman, Ph.D.
Broken Pieces is written by Rachel Thompson, author and activist. She is creator and founder of the Twitter blog memes #MondayBlogs, #SexAbuseChat and #BookMarketingChat. A sexual abuse survivor herself, she is an advocate for others. She has given a voice to sexual abuse survivors who have been traditionally silenced. And those who have a voice are empowered. Hers is a positive story as she slowly builds a loving life for herself with her own husband and family.
Her story is not only her story. It’s many women’s and many men’s stories. It’s about America’s blatant and pervasive rape culture. A rape culture is a pathological social environment where rape is pervasive and even condoned, rapists are excused, and where women are held responsible for being raped, due to societal attitudes about gender and sexuality (Ullman, 2010). Literally decades of research show that 15% to 30% of women have experienced attempted or completed sexual assault and over half of all first rapes occur before the age of 18 (Russel & Bolen, 2000; Tjaden & Thoennes, 2000; as cited in Ullman, 2010).
Ms. Thompson experienced her first rape at the age of 12, when, as she says, Barbies and Raggedy Ann pajamas were supposed to be her first concern. And her life story as a young American woman reflects the real issue of how American society accepts violence against women.
Ms. Thompson is truly an artist as well as an activist. Broken Pieces is a beautiful, lyrical work of art which isn’t written in a typical format of linear prose. Rather, it’s a collection of poetic essays and poems that describes Ms. Thompson’s emotional life in a right brain, experiential manner.
It’s also a portrait of the truth of the ubiquity of sexual assault, the constant objectification of women, the social politics of sex and power and the complexity of experiencing a normal sexual drive in this atmosphere.
Ms. Thompson’s story is a complex portrait of the coming of age of a young girl as she matures into an adult woman. Unfolding across many years, it’s her slow movement towards self-love and developing the ability to love another and create a family of her own. The narrative detail of her early sexual assault is a small part of the book, but we feel this permeate the entire book throughout her experience of men, love, sex and becoming a parent.
Through sensual prose, Ms. Thompson expresses a deep womanly sexuality within her adult romantic relationships. Thus, sexuality is shown to be an important aspect of being a woman. And yet, her stories are illustrative of how her sexuality is entangled by her experience of sexual coercion.
She experienced sexual assault as an innocent 12 year old. The sexual assault included death threats with a gun. Fortunately, people in the community became aware and her parents and the police supported her and responded appropriately. Legal justice and psychological counseling were obtained.
I have no words to quantify and describe the deep shame and self-blame that result from such an experience, the pain of the act and the pain of the lives damaged by this violent crime. The pain seeps through her work.
After the early sexual assault, Ms. Thompson writes of her other experiences as a woman living in our rape culture. In college she experienced violent attempted date rape. This took place before the term “date rape” was developed, so there was no way for her to make sense of the experience: it was not yet identified. More feelings of guilt and confusion arose. She was stalked. More fear and shame engendered. An intimate boyfriend tied her up and raped her viciously. She left him immediately after that.
The story of her life is illustrative of the pervasiveness of rape culture in our society, where we condone and even wink at gender and power manifesting in coercive behavior. In fact, it is forgiven and often admired.
Don’t believe me and the decades of research on which I base my opinions? Look at who is the President of the United States of America. How difficult for many to feel safe in this violent atmosphere.
Ms. Thompson’s work is beautiful, positive, meaningful and speaks to the emotional life.
Rooms is her piece that I loved that captured the bittersweet memories of love ….some of it is below..
Women have rooms inside of us men cannot fathom. It’s where we store the depths of the hurt we’ve been dealt. Where we store the deep love we never want to lose…. ….We fold our stories inside ourselves. We unwrap them when nobody is looking….. ….We carry former lovers, long lost, inside our limbs. We feel their caresses, remember exactly how their tongues entwined with ours as our bodies melted, their eye on ours as they entered us; even our cells remember the exquisite burn. A woman never forgets, though she may learn to love another … (Loc 156 of 1375, Thompson)

The Stone Bridge
Zovich is a village in Municipality of Novaci, located at 680 meters above sea level, 49km away from the city of Bitola. The village revives during the summer months when returnees and tourists visit the village, but also during the holiday “Mitrovden” (November 8 – St. Dimitrij, St. Demetrius), the day when the village celebrates its patron saint. The “Stone Bridge” near the village or also known as the “Movie Bridge” is one of the most beautiful architectural creations in all of Mariovo. It is made of carved stone and prone stone blocks. It has an arc shape, adapted to the configuration of the terrain. In the lower part adjacent to the river on the side of the village, a watermill was built, which until recently was used by the local population. The watermill is also built of carved stone and covered with stone slabs as all traditional houses in the region of Mariovo.
Alšar, an ancient mine located in the region of Mariovo, is said to contain minerals that are found nowhere else on the planet. The rarest of them all—the lorandite, a crystal of thallium. The lorandite is thought to have the potential to unravel the so-called "neutrino puzzle". By serving as a geochemical detector of the neuron, the lorandite could validate or disprove the theory of the standard solar system. In simple terms—it would let us understand the work of the Sun. The Ottomans, who ruled the peninsula until the beginning of the 20th century, called it Majdan (the word for "mine" in Turkish). This was also the name given to the nearest village. They explored for gold. But they were not the first ones at the mine. According to some, the mine has existed for over 5,000 years. The mine has been closed for decades.
Monastery of Saint Nikola
The Monastery of St. Nikola is located in the beautiful wilderness of the Mariovo region, near the village of Manastir, and is one of the oldest monasteries in the Republic of Macedonia. According to an inscription located on the southern and northern walls of the central nave, the church was built in 1005 by Alexius, the cousin of the Byzantine emperor Alexius Comnenus. The Abbot Akakie, who before his monastic vows was called Joanikis in 1266 raises the present church, on the foundation of the small already ruined church in 1095. The entire church is fresco painted, and definitely is among the highlights of the Byzantine and medieval architectural and artistic legacy of Macedonia and the Balkans.
The village of Vitolishte is the biggest village in the region of Mariovo. It is located on Mt. Kozjak, on the right coast of Crna river (an area known as Old Mariovo). Visitors of the village enjoy the rustic ambient, beautifully preserved traditional architecture, as well as the dairy products such as the famous "bieno sirenje" (special type of salty cow cheese produced in the area).
Bonche is a village in the Prilep part of Mariovo. In September 2007 archaeological excavations revealed a tomb of what is believed to be the burial site of a Macedonian king dating 4th century BC. The finds in the area also revealed that on the high mountain plateau Visoka in the 4th century BC was formed a small, but solid and representative early ancient palace, assumed to be the seat of the Kingdom of Macedonia IV (one of the four administrative units - meridas - of the ancient Macedonian kingdom after it was finally conquered by the Romans in 168 BC). The coins that were concurrently discovered belong to the Macedonian kings. The photo here shows the entrance of the burial site.

Mariovo is the mountainous region in southern Macedonia known for its natural beauties and uniquely wonderful white traditional costumes. The Mariovo area is somewhat large, but since there has been no urban development in these spaces over the past century, this region contains no actual urban settlements and towns, but only rustic villages, that represent one of the most distinctive ethnic clarity and common identity of the Orthodox Slavic population in Macedonia. Mariovo is situated at the average elevation of 1050 meters, between the mountains Selechka (highest peak – Visoka 1471 m) on the west, Nidze Mt (highest peak – Kajmakchalan 2520 m) and Kozhuf (highest peak – Zelenbeg 2171 m) on the south, Kozjak (highest peak – Baltova Chuka 1822 m) in the east and Dren (mountain) (highest peak – Studenica 1663 m) in the north. Those majestic mountains of Mariovo area divide the Vardar part of Macedonia and the Aegean part of Macedonia. The largest village in Mariovo is Vitolište, situated in Prilep’s municipality.
Mariovo suffered heavy population decrease during the years of the First World War, as the front lines of the Macedonian front were in this region, so the heavy fighting which took place in the area caused massive migration of the local population to Prilep and other areas of Macedonia. Another big migration took place during the 1960s and 1970s, in the years of rapid industrialization of Macedonia, when the newly opened factories in the cities required workers, and this triggered another mass migration, which devastated the economy of the entire region. Today Mariovo has less than 500 permanent residents which live on a huge territory of 1390 sq km.

The state Senate today reached an uneasy agreement on the starting point for Congressional redistricting debate. The Senate Judiciary plan, instead of the House plan, reached a 19-19, and Lt. Gov. Ken Ard broke the tie to make it the working template.
The Senate began taking up amendments to the plan below.
The plan is contentious because it splits Spartanburg County and puts the new 7th Congressional District in the Pee Dee.

Bishops decry killings in Igboland, seek amnesty for IPOB, others
CSOs reject call for emergency in Anambra
Representatives of Igbo Archbishops and Bishops on Peace and Conflict Resolution (RIABPCR) have lamented the killings and destruction in Igboland, appealing to the Federal Government to grant amnesty to the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and other separatist groups in Nigeria.
In a statement released in Enugu at the weekend, the Christian leaders stressed that de-criminalisation and de-proscription of the groups would lead them to embrace democratic and non-violent means of negotiation and dialogue on the future of the country.
The church leaders said they would have loved to engage IPOB and other separatist groups to urge them to eschew violent activities, but not “as long as any of them is proscribed as a terrorist group.”
According to them, the engagement would win the “hearts of all and lead to a better rapport between the political leaders and the people in the future,” as a high-handed approach can only bring graveyard peace.
The statement entitled ‘Restore trust, confidence and calm in southeast Nigeria’ was signed by Catholic Archbishop of Owerri, Anthony Obinna; Methodist Archbishop of Umuahia, Chibuzo Opoko; Past Principal Clerk, Presbyterian Church Nigeria, Uma Onwuka; Archbishop of Enugu Province, Emmanuel Chukwuma; Catholic Archbishop of Onitsha, Valeria Okeke; Bishop Obi Onubuogu of Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN) and Chairman, Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), South East zone, Dr. Abraham Nwali.
MEANWHILE, a group of civil society organisations and observers to the November 6, Anambra governorship election, numbering about 40, have urged President Muhammadu Buhari to ignore the recent comment by the Attorney-General and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, for state of emergency in Anambra State, due to political crisis.
In a statement at the weekend, Chris Azor, on behalf of the CSOs, expressed disgust by the comment. According to the CSOs, there should be no admittance to anything that would disrupt the poll.
He said: “We found it very disturbing and shocking, the statement credited to Malami (SAN) of contemplation to impose state of emergency on Anambra, due to the deteriorating security situation in the area. We are aware that the section that provides for state of emergency in the 1999 Constitution is 305, which empowers the President to issue the declaration by way of official gazette. However, two-third majority of the National Assembly members must ratify the executive proclamation within two days, if the legislators are in session, or 10 days if they are not.”
They reminded Malami that emergency is not being contemplated for states like Kaduna, Borno, Zamfara and others where insecurity assumed a more serious dimension.
“In Kaduna, for instance, people are being killed and maimed in large numbers daily, yet no such drastic measure has ever been contemplated by the Federal Government.
“Even if we admit the precarious state of insecurity in Anambra in recent times, it’s an obvious indictment on the Federal Government, as it has a fundamental constitutional mandate to ensure security and welfare of citizens.”
The CSOs implored the Buhari-led Federal Government to take up its responsibility by ensuring security before, during and after the governorship election in Anambra.

“These significant strategic investments coupled with partnerships enable Canatu to accelerate product development, further develop the mass production automatization, fasten market expansion, and expand to new strategic product areas,” said Juha Kokkonen, CEO of Canatu Oy.
A new strategic investor, Japanese DENSO Corporation, a leading global automotive supplier, invested €6 million to Canatu Oy. DENSO believes Canatu’s 3D technologies offer product and business opportunities in the future’s mobility technology.
The other new strategic investor, Ascend Capital Partners, is a China and Europe focused venture capital firm. They are helping to further Canatu’s expansion into the fast-moving Chinese automotive markets with their investment of €4 million.
Faurecia, one of the world’s largest automotive suppliers, is convinced of the potential of Canatu’s formable touch sensors, which enable design freedom for the cockpit of the future. Faurecia added an additional investment of €2 million.
“Ascend’s strong connections in the automotive industry in Europe and China will help Canatu develop partnerships to expand globally,” said Jörg Buchholz, partner, Ascend Capital Partners.

A Century of Evolution in Architecture and Urbanism in the Arabian Peninsula
This packed event was attended by urban designers from around the world. The lecture by Professor Ashraf Salama (University of Strathclyde) formed part of a series of international events, which started with Evolution of a City: Aleppo, given by Husam Al Waer and will be followed by Evolution of the City: Isfahan by Farnaz Arefian.
Ashraf illustrated the extremely complex and well-researched evolution of the region in its pre-oil, oil exploitation and post-oil periods with many masterplans and examples of new urban quarters and iconic buildings in this fast-developing area. These were accompanied by chronological data on key events, political and social, and how they influenced the changes that took place in urban development, design strategies and architectural styles - influencing and being influenced by a changing society and lifestyles.
His talk was in three parts: the first addressed the contextual issues of how geo-cultural politics may have instigated a contemporary discourse on architecture and the urban environment. The second explored evolutionary processes, both physical and socio-cultural, against the backdrop of oil discovery, oil exploitation and current post-oil strategies, based on key incidents over the past 100 years and how they had shaped architecture and urbanism. In Ashraf’s view, the demise of the Ottoman Empire and the role of British colonies and protectorates changed the desert culture and tribal traditions during the oil period. Independence led to a revival of pan-Arabism, linked by language, culture and religion throughout the Middle East and North Africa, expanding into Turkey, Iran and even Israel. He illustrated how these shifts took specific forms under nationalism and created their own mix of modern architecture, responding to global conditions. He explained in particular, how in this process the Arabic house built around inner courtyards had shifted courtyards outwards, and how compounds for extended families were turned into Western-style denser urban living areas, including tower blocks.
He showed the influence of Western masterplanning on changes at the city level and in large-scale regeneration projects. It was sometimes difficult to follow the rapid succession of slides, especially for those not familiar with this part of the world and it may have been preferable not to include a discussant, Professor Attilio Petruccioli (Sapienza University in Rome), who talked about his own experiences at length.
There was still time for a very animated discussion with many questions of clarification and reflections on the possibly disturbing interaction between Arabic culture and Western design practice. Some asked how these modern cities, which had also left a legacy of increased social and spatial segregation, would be able to survive and accommodate a more sustainable way of life in the future.

LEDS and the rise of Non-State Actors: Where, who and what
Climate action by cities, regions, companies and NGOs has reinvigorated the debate on global climate governance in the run up to the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP21) in Paris. Collaborative initiatives such as the C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group and the ‘We Mean Business‘ coalition engage an impressive number of actors committing to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions (GHG). Their actions could represent significant, enhanced and scaled-up efforts to bring untapped mitigation potential to fruition, should they succeed in achieving these commitments. The United Nations Environmental Program (UNEP) estimates the potential of mitigation from sub-national action to nearly 3 Gt of CO2 equivalent – just 0.7 Gt less than total EU’s emissions in 2014. This shows that non-state actors (NSAs) could help close the ambition gap between the national pledges and the decarbonization pathway, which leaves us with a reasonable chance to stop warming at 2 degrees Celsius.
In this webinar, Dr. Phillip Pattberg, a professor of Transnational Environmental Governance and Policy at the Institute for Environmental Studies at the VU University Amsterdam and Dr. Oscar Widerberg, a researcher also with the Institute for Environmental Studies, VU University Amsterdam, take a closer look at the commitments made by sub-national NSAs of cities, regions and companies.
First, they present the results from their research on a large dataset collected on city-networks. Is the increase in initiatives really a global phenomenon or is it more concentrated to pockets of developed country regions? Who are the key actors and where are the overlaps between networks? Why are some cities extremely active whereas others are not? The commitments of cities and regions are examined in detail to understand what they actually sign up to undertake.
Second, they take a closer look at the private sector: companies and their networks. Why and how are companies engaging in global climate governance? Who and where who are they? The companies are also analyzed in terms of GHG emissions to see whether there is enough potential for the initiatives to make a difference.
Third, they discuss what the emergence of non-state actors means for the overall climate regime. What are the challenges and opportunities for harnessing and integrating the great potentials? Should cities, companies and other sub-national NSAs be more formally integrated in the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC)? And what options do we have moving towards Paris and beyond?

There have always been a number of challenges in regard to the delivery of and sustainability of the practice of detached youthwork, and i thought it would be good to share some of these here, but also begin a conversation about some current and what might be future challenges.
Detached youthwork by its own strength is hugely unpredictable, it is difficult to say for certainty what is going to happen, when and where and with whom. Not unlike a drop in session or club, every night is different, every young person interacted with has had different experiences in the preceding time. Yet, possibly, the variables for detached are that much greater – at least in a club setting a young persons attendance is more likely in the rain – not less ( of greater significance a factor in the last two years of our british climate- http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-26049927) , so not knowing or being able to prepare for a session can be a challenge, and being ready for the unexpected is also part of the planning.
As a consequence detached youthwork, which starts from a position of meeting young people in their chosen spaces in their community, at their chosen time has a challenge to know when to be in the right places, what to do there and how to be appropriate.
Yet, the unpredictability of contact time means that often the relationship between the young person, or group of young people and the detached worker/team is more difficult to quantify, if anything it is de-constructed to being a series of spontaneous conversations, often in the context of the whole group, and in a public space. Is this any different to club work? well it kind of is, given that the sharing of tasks, games, activities, and the process of decision making, or the politic of the club can be a method of developing purposeful relationships. Outside on the streets, there could be 3 or 4 fleeting chats, or a number of acknowledgements, or ‘playing the rules of the game’ for a while ( See Goetchius and Tash 1967:93-111),in which the young people are assessing intentions, trust, acceptance, testing boundaries, exploring authenticity of the workers, and this takes time, as does immersing yourself in their culture to understand their values, behaviours, attitudes and beliefs. I wonder what space there is for this to happen in a club/centre environment or is all assumed? until things ‘kick off’? However, i digress, and so the relationship is the cumulation of conversations, of actions and behaviour, of testing the water – and yet how in detached youthwork can we coherently articulate that that is a relationship that is developing, or the identify the strength of it – even at an chronologically early stage? – especially if there isnt the possibility of shared activity over a xbox game or pool?
Evaluating change and effect is one of the more notoriously difficult challenges in detached youthwork, though not too dissimilar to centre based work. If the nature of the contact is categorised by a series of actions then it may be able to say whether the relationship has reached certain points, but relationships aren’t linear, and often a time of trauma in a relationship occurs after the point when a young person might have dared to trust. You may have a really detailed conversation with a young person one week, but then only see them with their friends, in groups for a number of subsequent sessions, and so things to you might stall – but for them, they are wanting you to be trusted with that personal information, and not talk about it- right now in front of their friends- but if you do the right thing with this information now, what about next time?
Again, there might not be the quick moment in the kitchen or back room of the hall to have that ‘how did things go?’ moment, when on the streets. But does that invalidate the significance of the relationships, no not at all. If anything, because the young person has confided in you, at a time that is their own, in their ‘territory’ then it carries even more significance, given the effort, and ‘game playing’ that might have been needed to lead up to such a scenario- some of that random banter, where you have felt no where in control has in fact oiled the wheels of the developing relationship- from their perspective. The challenge is how to validate this with others, with our management, our trustees, and often our funders.
Theres the challenge; supportive, purposeful relationships, if the desired outcome of detached youthwork, will take time. Meeting young people where they are at, will mean playing the rules of the game for a while, gaining trust and acceptance, and realising that there may be unpredictable significant moments, as well as many evenings of just random banter, or acknowledgements, or no one. Sometimes it is enough to just ‘be there’. Sometimes in the relationships that start cagey or with offence are the ones that last the longest, as you have stuck in when others have judged and left. And then theres the challenge of identifying how your progress is going with a ‘group’ but also what the relationships is like between you and (all) the individuals within such a group.
Over the next few weeks i am going to have a look at a few other challenges in detached youthwork, if there is something that you would like to have a discussion on, then please send me a comment. A few things that are planned are : social media and the planned activity of young people, measuring change, and dealing with conflict. Contact me if you would like to begin a discussion on a new topic…

Read stories of local needy children during this holiday season.
The nation is going broke because of the drastic revenue reductions instituted by former President Bush. When those tax cuts were put into effect, the economy was thriving. Republican leadership since then led us the wrong way, into a quagmire of debt from a costly foreign mercenary mission to protect multinational corporate oil interests followed by a bailout of supposedly "too big to fail" superrich bankers and brokers. These misadventures are why our economy is a mess.
People need to pay their bills. Stop corporate welfare and costly tax loophole entitlements for the wealthy.

In order to spur growth in Brazil’s economy, the Central Bank has slashed interest rates yet again. The bank’s monetary policy committee, known as the Copom, voted unanimously to cut the so-called Selic rate to 8.75%, says Fernando Exman for Reuters. Now the country will wait and see how the economy will react to the cuts.
Stephanie Hanson for Council on Foreign Relations reports that analysts agree that the country has the potential to produce many agricultural exports, as no other country has as many untapped resources and vast open land. Other positives seen:
- Sound economic management has reduced inflation and attracted foreign investment
- A stable currency, the Brazilian real
- Its population of 200 million is becoming a strong consumer market
- There’s tight regulation on banks
- Brazil’s banks are working to solidify the economy to make it less sensitive to market fluctuations, both globally and locally
- iShares MSCI Brazil Index (EWZ): up 63.9% year-to-date

Lankering: What about proper diet?
Are we allowed to ask questions? Do we still have the right to free speech? Can we have civil discourse to address different points of views?
The Pitkin County Board of Health is advertising that “Being Sick Sucks.” Their recommendations include wearing masks and getting the jabs. Do these improve your health?
Where are the health recommendations like not eating processed foods, optimize Vitamin D, exercise, detox, and cutting out sugar?
Dr. Tom Lankering
Editor’s note: Numerous assertions of facts in this letter have been debunked as false or misleading, and do not appear here. The preponderance of medical research shows mask wearing and vaccines do improve health as it relates to COVID-19.

GIVE ME THE SAME THING… ONLY DIFFERENT!
Studying screenwriting as a way to improve my novel has been amazingly helpful. After all, a movie is just a story put on film. Lots of films are adapted from books; why not go the other direction and allow film structure to inform the novel?
Blake Snyder’s point in chapter two of Save the Cat is that you have to put a fresh spin on an old idea. It won’t be cliché, if you know what tradition you are writing in. Your goal is to give it a twist to make it new. “The point is to be well-versed in the language, rhythm, and goals of the genre…. learn its rules and find what’s essential.”
Know your genre. WHAT IS IT… MOST LIKE?
Snyder categorizes movies into ten different genres, but they aren’t the “standard genre types, such as Romantic Comedy, Epic, or Biography — because those names don’t really tell me anything about what the story is.”
He focuses instead on story structure, or core story types. And he argues pretty convincingly that every movie out there falls into one of these ten categories. Maybe every novel doesn’t, because novels can do things like interior monologues, descriptions of setting, and commentary, that films rarely (if ever) indulge in. But studying stories is always time well spent.
Here are the ten genres. Does your story fit into one of them? If so, could your project benefit from watching some related movies? Pop some popcorn and pick out a few!
•Monster in the House
The “house” is any confined space. Characters are trapped, feel smothered, with no escape. Sin is committed. The monster is revealed, kills the sinners, spares the heroes. Lots of “run and hide” sequences.
Jaws, Scream, Alien.
The quest myth, where the hero goes in search of one thing and finds another, usually himself. Road movies, heist movies fit into this category, where the scenes are somewhat episodic because the theme is less linear and more concerned with internal growth.
The Wizard of Oz, Star Wars, Jason and the Argonauts, Ocean’s Eleven.
•Out of the Bottle
The wish fulfillment genre. It can feature a magical genie, or not. The point is the main guy we like gets his wish and the story covers what happens next. In the end a moral ties a nice neat bow around the package.
Bruce Almighty, Flubber.
The reverse of this category is the comeuppance tale, in which a guy we don’t like all that much gets what’s coming to him, proves he has some redeeming qualities, and eventually triumphs. There must be a Save the Cat scene early on, or else you risk losing your audience at the outset.
Groundhog Day, Freaky Friday.
•Dude with a Problem
“An ordinary guy finds himself in extraordinary circumstances.” The story starts off with an ordinary day in the life of the regular Joe which quickly turns catastrophic as the problem is revealed. You’ll need really bad villains, insurmountable problems, and an ingenious way for our supposedly ordinary guy to outsmart the enemies and save the day.
Die Hard, Titanic, Schindler’s List.
•Rites of Passage
Coming of age, midlife crises, dealing with the death of a loved one— these are all rites of passage. “In a good Rites of Passage tale, everybody’s in on ‘the joke’ except the person going through it,” and the story charts “the hero’s grudging acceptance of the forces of nature that he cannot control or comprehend, and the victory comes with the hero’s ability to ultimately smile.”
Ordinary People, Pretty in Pink, Lost in Translation.
Buddy stories can be about two guys, two girls, two fish, a boy and his dog, lovers. The story often starts with the two hating each other, but during their adventure together find they need each other, which they also hate. The All Is Lost moment is when we think they are calling it quits, but in the end they realize they’re better together. Love wins.
“The buddy movie was invented by a screenwriter who realized that his hero had no one to react to. There was just this big, empty space where interior monologue and description is found in fiction.”
Dumb and Dumber, Notting Hill, Rain Man.
Detective stories, social dramas, dark heart kinds of tales that ask not just who did this, but why did it happen? The story explores something so evil we could not imagine it being possible, then turns the question back on ourselves: what am I capable of?
Snyder reckons Chinatown is the best example of the whydunit Hollywood has to offer. “It’s one of those movies that you can see a thousand times and drive deeper into smaller and smaller rooms of the Nautilus shell with each viewing.” I haven’t seen it, but it sounds worthwhile.
Citizen Kane, Rear Window, Fargo, Minority Report.
•The Fool Triumphant
An underestimated underdog proves to be wiser than the establishment and more capable than he at first appears. With determination and a bit of luck, he saves the day, wins the girl, and becomes an unlikely hero.
Forrest Gump, Legally Blonde, Aladdin.
These stories draw attention to groups, families, institutions like the military. Often the hero is a newcomer with whom the audience can identify, and there is a secondary character who is more experienced and helps the virgin newbie (and us) learn the ropes.
The group is often portrayed as crazy in some way, yet people are loyal to the group and willing to sacrifice themselves to a certain extent. There’s a survival element, and “each has a breakout character whose role is to expose the group goal as a fraud.”
One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, The Godfather, Top Gun, Office Space.
Exactly the opposite of Dude With a Problem: extraordinary person faces the ordinary world. We can never totally identify with the superhero, but we can all identify with being misunderstood. The writer often makes the superhero sympathetic and relatable by stressing the flip side of being a genius/superhuman/god. They have problems, too.
X-Men, A Beautiful Mind, Gulliver’s Travels, The Matrix.
As I finished writing this post, I found a PDF on Blake Snyder’s website called Save The Cat Goes to the Movies! At a Glance that lists hundreds of movies by category. Not only that, each category is broken down into five sub-genres, so you can really narrow down what type of story you’re writing and find similar movies to watch.

In the past few years, FAMU has been in the worst state it has ever been. But on July 2, hope arrived on the highest of seven hills.
James H. Ammons took the reigns as the University’s 10th president and was given the task of restoring financial stability and improving communication efforts between administrators and faculty.
Since his arrival, his main goal for his administration is to achieve compliance before the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, the regional accrediting association, returns in October to address the “internal control issues.”
According to an interview with the St. Petersburg Times, Ammons plans to focus on three key areas: cash and missing property; board governance, revising and reviewing policies; and procedures.
As students here at “The Hill” we are 100 percent behind President Ammons, and the decisions that he will make toward the betterment of the colleges and schools here at FAMU.
But we will also hold the President and his administration accountable to the promises he has made publicly to the FAMU community. If the Ammons administration promises net checks and paychecks on a certain date, we will expect to receive those net checks and pay checks on that date.
We understand that the entire situation will not be changed overnight. But after seeing the confidence that our current President carries and the spirit of the Rattler that he possesses, many students are hopeful that the future of FAMU will indeed be brighter.
In Ammon’s written address to the staff members at FAMU he said, “In the vernacular, we say, ‘handle your business.”
As the voice of FAMU, The Famuan says to you President Ammons, “handle your business.”

Bryce Leatherwood has made a grand entrance into the world of country music. The 22-year-old was crowned the new winner of The Voice season 22. The morning after his epic win, Bryce told HollywoodLife EXCLUSIVELY that he’s “on cloud nine. I’m so stoked and so happy to be the season 22 winner of The Voice. I couldn’t be happier.”
Season 22 came down to Bryce, Bodie, and Morgan Myles. When his name was called during the final moments of the finale, Bryce “couldn’t believe it” at first. “It was like a movie scene. It was like a dream. For me, it shows me that with hard work, you can do anything in life, and with a leap of faith like I took when I auditioned for the show, you can be surprised what can become of it, the fruits of your labor,” he said. “I’m just thrilled to be the winner and to be representing what an incredible cast this has all been since the beginning. There are so many people that I now hold the torch for and represent as the winner, so I gotta keep working for them and keep their legacy going on by being the best artist I can for everybody.”
Bryce being crowned the new winner marked Blake Shelton’s ninth win as a coach. Blake has praised Bryce all throughout the season and has been vocal about Bryce’s bright future in country music. Just one day after The Voice finale, Bryce is already thinking about what’s next.
“I’m just trying to figure out where I land as far as once this record deal kicks in, and where’s the most logical place for me to be and the most time-effective place for me to be because I want to jump on this record deal and start hammering out some songs and start releasing great songs and give the people what they want to hear. People want to hear Bryce Leatherwood, obviously, and I want to give the people what they want,” Bryce told HollywoodLife.
The Georgia native is even leaning towards heading to Nashville, the epicenter of country music. “I’ve been there several times, and I have a lot of great buddies up there and a lot of great friends who are incredible writers and incredible people. So my goal is to probably go to Nashville and spend some time writing, spend some time working the scene up there just trying to connect and get in with some incredible writers and other artists who have influenced me as well.”
The 22-year-old revealed that he wants to release new music before the end of 2023. “Hopefully, before quarter two of next year have something out for America to listen to and for America to fall in love with,” he noted. The singer noted that he is “constantly trying to write, constantly trying to formulate songs, and just come up with cool ideas. That’s the beautiful part of music. You can do it anywhere. It’s free and it’s my passion. I love writing, but I’m looking forward to co-writing with some more incredible writers and making really, really high-class songs and not just songs that are developed out of pure speed but songs that come out of good timing and good writing.”
Bryce became the first-ever Instant Save artist to win The Voice. This achievement has proven to Bryce that you should never stop fighting for your dreams. “It shows that if you’ve got some fight left in you, you’d be surprised what you can come back and do. For me, I just say always keep fighting, always keep believing yourself. I do believe I have a strong belief in myself, and I was able to push through that moment with a smile on my face. I was having a good time because you never know when the last time you could be on that stage is going to be up until, of course, last night. You always wanted to go in there as if it was your last performance,” he told HollywoodLife.
After months of competing, Bryce is looking forward to some downtime before kicking off the next chapter of his music career. “I’ll probably stay on the couch, hold my dog, and maybe go up to my mountain house and go wet a line and go fishing and take it easy,” Bryce revealed about his immediate plans now that the season is over. “Make a fire, smoke a cigar, relax, drink a good whiskey, work on some music. Call Blake. See how he’s doing. Fun stuff like that.”

Marie Joseph François (Francis) Garnier was born on July 25, 1839 at Saint-Étienne, Loire.
He entered the French Navy and, after voyaging in Brazilian waters and the Pacific, he obtained a post on the staff of Admiral Léonard Victor Charner who, from February 1860 to November 1861, was campaigning in Cochinchine.
After some time spent in France, Garnier returned to the East and, in 1862, he was appointed inspector of native affairs in Cochinchine and entrusted with the administration of Cholon, a suburb of Saigon.
It was at his suggestion that the Marquis de Chasseloup-Laubat determined to send a mission to explore the valley of the Mekong River but, as Garnier was not considered old enough to be put in command, the chief authority was entrusted to Captain de Lagrée.
In the course of the expedition – to quote the words of Sir Roderick Murchison addressed to Garnier when, in 1870, he was presented with the Patron’s Medal of the Royal Geographical Society of London – “from Kratie in Cambodia to Shanghai 5392 miles were traversed, and of these, 3625 miles, chiefly of country unknown to European geography, were surveyed with care, and the positions fixed by astronomical observations, nearly the whole of the observations being taken by Garnier himself”.
Volunteering to lead a detachment to Ta-li, the capital of Sultan Suleiman – the sovereign of the Muslim rebels in Yunnan – Garnier successfully carried out the more-than-adventurous enterprise.
When shortly afterward Lagrée died, Garnier naturally assumed the command of the expedition, and he conducted it in safety to the Yangtze River, and thus to the Chinese coast.
