What steps have you taken to create change? ![]() Wilmer Valderrama at the West Hollywood EDITION Photo by Adam Morganstern There's just people dying because they don't have their basic needs. Whether you are Republican or Democrat or independent, you have the right to liberty, to believe, to preach - but when it comes to humans, there’s not a flag. And whatever your thoughts are about what's happening, what I saw was a humanitarian crisis. Then I went to Tijuana and saw the caravans. They have an understanding of their mutual contributions. I wish it was happening in all of America. These border towns have integrated culturally. I walked into a bar in Brownsville, Texas, and there were three Mexican guys and two white guys laughing and drinking tequila together. I wanted to research this and what I found is a different story - there are some beautiful things happening. You hear all these stories about crime and danger in the border towns, and so much of it is just perception based on what position or laws you want to support. You’ve made a point of spending time at the border. You’re having a conversation at dinner, and someone puts a plate in front of you, but there’s an ecosystem of workers you don’t see that cleaned that plate and prepared what goes on it. People get attacked for taking these jobs, that we’ve been trained to look the other way from, like they’re being done magically. Without insurance, they get hurt, they get thrown out and new people are brought in. It’s one of the most dangerous jobs in America, and one of the most disposable ones too. I did a film called Fast Food Nation with Richard Linkletter, where I play an undocumented worker that crosses the border and takes a job at a slaughterhouse. ![]() When did appreciation for your culture turn to activism? I feel like Latin people, through all that stress, instead of complaining, we ‘turn the music up a little louder.’ And that’s why I feel at the worst moments, when I could have fallen apart, I had the sound of my culture to kick me back in gear. It wasn’t Captain Crunch, it was just Crunch, and the guy on the box didn’t have a captain’s hat. We went to the 99 cent stores to to do the groceries-(laughing) so it wasn’t Coca Cola, it was just Cola. When we first got here we were always two months late in rent.

![]() If you choose an option, such as calendar in my example, you’ll see an icon for App Store. To initiate a project in Apple Photos, you go to File, pull down to Create and there you’ll see choices for Book, Calendar, Card, Wall Decor, Prints, Slideshow and Other. ![]() You may never make a calendar yourself, but if my experience is anything like how it works for books or cards or other services, you might just want to give Mimeo Photos a try. I tested both of them and found that Mimeo Photos was more to my liking but it’s worth taking a look at Motif as well. Motif is another good option for creating calendars and other projects. I should mention that Mimeo Photos isn’t the only option available. The old Apple interface was so aggravating, I was looking forward with optimism to the new Mimeo Photos interface. In theory with Mimeo Photos we’ll get the same quality of products but with a new interface. Turns out Mimeo Photos is the company that Apple used for all of its print services in the past. I’m going to focus this article on the extension called Mimeo Photos from. Apple has a support article that describes how these new extensions are supposed to work from within Apple Photos. They created a plugin architecture for Apple Photos so that third-party companies could fill the gap. Apple Ends Photos Projectsįast forward to this year in September when Apple announced that they were dropping their own tools for making projects like calendars, books, cards and more. I was severely disappointed on that front if anything they went from mediocre to horribly frustrating.īart also makes calendars with Apple Photos, so he and I used to get together every year to bemoan how awful the process was. When Apple introduced Photos as the replacement for iPhoto, I was optimistic that the layout features would be vastly improved. The Project section of iPhoto where I originally created my calendars had layout tools that I would put just above mediocre. I switched back to Apple and never tested any other services. While I adore Shutterfly for my annual photo Christmas card, their calendar was definitely not up to the caliber of Apple’s printing services. Nearly every year I’ve used Apple’s services to print my calendars, wavering only once by trying out Shutterfly. I can tell they really like it because once or twice I’ve tried to opt people out to save money only to get huge protests and be forced to add them back in. These monthly collages make us all very happy. Every year for the last 25 or 30 years, I’ve created a photo calendar for my family. ![]() The Cherokee domain once extended far beyond the distant mountains, but the white man, with broken treaties and fruitless promises, brought trouble to the Indians and caused their banishment to an Oklahoma reservation. The Cherokee who gained the ability to live in North Carolina were considered to be an independent band from the Cherokee Nation living in Oklahoma.Ī United States Department of Interior sign, entitled "Qualla Indian Reservation", reads: The Cherokee organized and formed a corporation in 1870 to be able to purchase and hold additional lands. Thomas purchased lands around the Oconaluftee River for the tribe, the total area adding up to around 50,000 acres this land is still a large part of what makes up the Boundary today. He is the only European American to have served as chief in their history. The Cherokee valued and respected Thomas he had studied law and was adopted into the tribe and named as successor by its hereditary chief. He had a knowledge of their traditions and language, and was close friends with some members of the tribe. William Holland Thomas had lived and worked among the Cherokee people for a good portion of his life. The land is a fragment of the extensive historical homeland of the Cherokee in the region, and was considered part of the Cherokee Nation during the nineteenth century, prior to certain treaties and Indian Removal in the 1830s. The Qualla Boundary is a land trust supervised by the United States Bureau of Indian Affairs. These pieces were embodied in a map published as the Map of the Qualla Indian reserve. Temple under the auspices of the United States Land Office. The Qualla Boundary was first surveyed in 1876 by M. This was when the main struggle for land at what became the Qualla Boundary began. Some of the Cherokee were able to evade the initial removal and hide in the Great Smoky Mountains, some were free to stay on their lands due to earlier treaties, but the majority of the Cherokee people were removed from the land. Federal Government relocated approximately 11,000 Cherokee from their homeland in North Carolina, in what is known as the Trail of Tears. ![]() They were relocated to Indian Territory west of the Mississippi River, in what is the present-day state of Oklahoma.ĭuring the winter of 1838 and early the spring of 1839, the U.S. The Cherokee were forcibly removed in the late 1830s from much of this area, especially the Black Belt in Georgia and Alabama, under federal authority as authorized by Congress in the 1830 Indian Removal Act. Qualla Arts and Crafts Center in Cherokee, North Carolina Individuals can buy, own, and sell the land, provided they are enrolled members of the Tribe of the Eastern Band of the Cherokee Indians. The tribe purchased this land in the 1870s, and it was subsequently placed under federal protective trust it is not a reservation created by the government. Smaller, discontiguous parcels also lie in Graham and Cherokee counties, near the communities of Snowbird and Murphy respectively. Currently, the largest contiguous portion of the Qualla lies in Haywood, Swain, and Jackson counties and is centered on the community of Cherokee, which serves as the tribal capital of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians. The area is part of the large historic Cherokee territory in the Southeast, which extended into eastern Tennessee, western South Carolina, northern Georgia and Alabama. The Qualla Boundary or The Qualla is territory held as a land trust by the United States government for the federally recognized Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians, who reside in western North Carolina.

![]() ![]() While others such as Block.One, have made SEC settlements that amounted to a slap on the wrist, Ripple can’t really afford to settle. That’s because it has left the decision up to the courts and the judge considered that as asking rather than answering the question of whether XRP is a security.īecause the action failed on this point, the need to protect cash balances falls away. Judge Morgan Zurn ruled that the current SEC enforcement action lacks the finality implied by the word ‘determined’. The ruling hinged on the contract wording, which required it to be ‘determined’ that XRP is a security (full wording below). Ripple’s position is that – based on the contract’s wording – XRP is not a security. ![]() Tetragon is concerned that Ripple could use free cash to buy XRP and wants to make sure the free cash is available to pay them back. On Friday, Ripple announced a victory that denied Tetragon a preliminary injunction.Ī clause in the investment agreement gives the option to Tetragon to clawback the investment if XRP is deemed a security going forward. Meanwhile, apart from the SEC litigation, Ripple is also battling with Tetragon, the lead investor in Ripple’s $200 million Series A, which is asking for its money back. We still believe in the promise of digital assets and blockchain technology to change the status quo in global payments for the benefit of billions of consumers around the world.” Ripple’s shareholder battle “We are both committed to revisiting our relationship in the future. “Together, we processed billions of dollars through RippleNet and On-Demand Liquidity (ODL),” said Ripple in a statement. The Moneygram lawsuit alleges that the company should have been aware that if XRP was found to be a security it would impact Moneygram’s bottom line because it would lose the market development fees. Ripple and Moneygram did a deal in 2019 in which Ripple agreed to make $50 million of XRP available to Moneygram in exchange for an equity interest. Last week Moneygram itself was the subject of a class-action lawsuit relating to its use of XRP. The underlying messaging solution RippleNet, that several banks use does not use XRP. ODL uses XRP for transfers enabling foreign currency transactions and cross-border payments. This follows the SEC’s December lawsuit against Ripple alleging XRP is a security. A couple of weeks ago, the money transfer company said it stopped using Ripple’s On Demand Liquidity (ODL) solution for the four currencies where it was active. That’s because it has left the decision up to the courts and the judge considered that as asking rather than answering the question of whether XRP is a security.īecause the action failed on this point, the need to protect cash balances falls away.Yesterday Ripple announced its “current” partnership with Moneygram was ending by mutual agreement. ![]() The ruling hinged on the contract wording, which required it to be ‘determined’ that XRP is a security.

The presence of an alula has been confirmed in several now- extinct ancient relatives of modern birds, including Eoalulavis hoyasi (an enantiornithine from the mid- Cretaceous, 115 mya) and the earlier Protopteryx fengningensis. The Alulae are particularly notable in peregrine falcons. ![]() In falcons, the alula is more prominent, and provides a degree of control when the wing is cupped or tucked in a dive/stoop. Ideas (we're only half joking) for the second born: Aviva, Aziza, Otto. During stretching of the wing down toward the ground, the alula is abducted from the wing and can be clearly viewed. Alula, the palindromic name of the first double star to be identified as physically related to its twin, would make the perfect name for a first-born twin. The tip of the alula forms a tiny vortex, acting similar to a vortex generator, that forces the airflow over the wing to better bind to it. This functions in the same way as the slats on the wing of an aircraft, allowing the wing to achieve a higher than normal angle of attack – and thus lift – without resulting in a stall. ![]() When flying at slow speeds or landing, the bird moves its alula slightly upwards and forward, which creates a small slot on the wing's leading edge. In most situations, the alula is held flush against the wing however, it can be manipulated. » BMR Calculator (Your daily calorie requirement)Ĭopyright © IndiaChildNames.Adult bald eagle landing, showing the alula in action Alula is primarily considered for baby Girl Names names.

Some of it, though, may be too close to the bone even for Anderson. Paak has the rare ability to take the most macabre incident and recount it whimsically without being weighed down by its gravity. He’s been homeless, carless and broke.Īnd yet, in his music, Anderson. Paak got married twice at a relatively young age. His mom, dad and stepdad all did long prison sentences. His mom, adopted from a Korean orphanage, is a survivor, a go-getter, a giver and a product of her own insecurities about relationships and what it takes to sustain them. His dad, who died in 2011, wasn’t only an identical twin but a dreamer, a striver, a prankster and an addict.

Some days, Ronald just didn’t want to go to work. At home, he worked on car motors with his dad. He had school, which included being a member of the gymnastics squad. But Ronald didn’t like to commit to a regular schedule. The job was a lifeline in a poor Black community. Ronald would stock shelves, sweep and mop floors and load customers’ cars.
