Geronimo. Cochise. Starea taurului. Nor roșu. Cal nebun. Șef Iosif. Dintre marii șefi și războinici nativi americani, care reprezentau vitejie, leadership, forță și îndemânare militară, șeful Iosif era cunoscut pentru inima sa.

La 5 octombrie 1877, discursul său, în timp ce se predea generalului Howard, l-a imortalizat în istoria americană pentru totdeauna: 

"M-am săturat să mă lupt. Șefii noștri sunt uciși. Uitarea sticlei este moartă. Toohoolhoolzote este mort. Bătrânii sunt morți. Tinerii sunt cei care spun, 'da' sau 'Nu.' Cel care i-a condus pe tinerii [Olikut] este mort. Este frig și nu avem pături. Copiii mici îngheață până la moarte. Oamenii mei, unii dintre ei, au fugit pe dealuri și nu au pături, nici mâncare. Nimeni nu știe unde se află & # x2014; poate înghețat până la moarte. Vreau să am timp să îmi caut copiii, și să văd câți dintre ei pot găsi. Poate îi voi găsi printre morți. Ascultă-mă, șefii mei! Sunt obosit. Inima mea este bolnavă și tristă. De unde stă soarele acum nu voi mai lupta pentru totdeauna ”.

Șeful Iosif nu a ajuns niciodată să se întoarcă în patrie, așa cum i s-a promis. Totuși, în ciuda faptului că tribul său a murit de boală și la mâinile omului alb, nu a renunțat niciodată să fie conștiința poporului său. Nu a renunțat niciodată la speranța că într-o bună zi, americanii autohtoni vor obține libertatea și egalitatea. 

În 1904, șeful Iosif a murit, potrivit medicului său, de o inimă frântă.

    Unity and BrightBuilt factory-built homes share an important feature: They are airtight, part of what makes them 60% more efficient than a standard home. GO Logic says its homes are even more efficient, requiring very little energy to keep cool or warm. <a href=https://kra34g.cc>kraken ссылка</a> “Everybody wants to be able to build a house that’s going to take less to heat and cool,” said Unity director Mark Hertzler. Home efficiency has other indirect benefits. The insulation and airtightness – aided by heat pumps and air exchangers – helps manage the movement of heat, air and moisture, which keeps fresh air circulating and mold growth at bay, according to Hertzler. https://kra34g.cc kraken Buntel, a spring allergy sufferer, said his Somerville home’s air exchange has made a noticeable difference in the amount of pollen in the house. And customers have remarked on how quiet their homes are, due to their insulation. “I’m from New England, so I’ve always lived in drafty, uncomfortable, older houses,” Buntel said. “This is really amazing to me, how consistent it is throughout the year.” Some panelized home customers are choosing to build not just to reduce their carbon footprint, but because of the looming threat of a warming planet, and the stronger storms it brings. Burton DeWilde, a Unity homeowner based in Vermont, wanted to build a home that could withstand increasing climate impacts like severe flooding. “I think of myself as a preemptive climate refugee, which is maybe a loaded term, but I wasn’t willing to wait around for disaster to strike,” he told CNN. Sustainability is one of Unity’s founding principles, and the company builds houses with the goal of being all-electric. “We’re trying to eliminate fossil fuels and the need for fossil fuels,” Hertzler said. Goodson may drill oil by day, but the only fossil fuel he uses at home is diesel to power the house battery if the sun doesn’t shine for days. Goodson estimated he burned just 30 gallons of diesel last winter – hundreds of gallons less than Maine homeowners who burn oil to stay warm. “We have no power bill, no fuel bill, all the things that you would have in an on-grid house,” he said. “We pay for internet, and we pay property taxes, and that’s it.”

    The bow of a US Navy cruiser damaged in a World War II battle in the Pacific has shone new light on one of the most remarkable stories in the service’s history. More than 80 years ago the crew of the USS New Orleans having been hit by a Japanese torpedo and losing scores of sailors performed hasty repairs with coconut logs before a 1800-mile voyage across the Pacific in reverse. The front of the ship or the bow had sunk to the sea floor. But over the weekend the Nautilus Live expedition from the Ocean Exploration Trust located it in 675 meters 2214 feet of water in Iron Bottom Sound in the Solomon Islands. Кракен тор Using remotely operated underwater vehicles scientists and historians observed “details in the ship’s structure painting and anchor to positively identify the wreckage as New Orleans” the expedition’s website said. On November 30 1942 New Orleans was struck on its portside bow during the Battle of Tassafaronga off Guadalcanal island according to an official Navy report of the incident. https://kra34g.cc kraken вход The torpedo’s explosion ignited ammunition in the New Orleans’ forward ammunition magazine severing the first 20 of the 588-foot warship and killing more than 180 of its 900 crew members records state. The crew worked to close off bulkheads to prevent flooding in the rest of the ship and it limped into the harbor on the island of Tulagi where sailors went into the jungle to get repair supplies. “Camouflaging their ship from air attack the crew jury-rigged a bow of coconut logs” a US Navy account states. With that makeshift bow the ship steamed – in reverse – some 1800 miles across the Pacific to Australia for sturdier repairs according to an account from the National World War II Museum in Louisiana. Retired US Navy Capt. Carl Schuster described to CNN the remarkable skill involved in sailing a warship backwards for that extended distance. “‘Difficult’ does not adequately describe the challenge” Schuster said. While a ship’s bow is designed to cut through waves the stern is not meaning wave action lifts and drops the stern with each trough he said. When the stern rises rudders lose bite in the water making steering more difficult Schuster said. And losing the front portion of the ship changes the ship’s center of maneuverability or its “pivot point” he said. “That affects how the ship responds to sea and wind effects and changes the ship’s response to rudder and propellor actions” he said. The New Orleans’ officers would have had to learn – on the go – a whole new set of actions and commands to keep it stable and moving in the right direction he said. The ingenuity and adaptiveness that saved the New Orleans at the Battle of Tassafaronga enabled it to be a force later in the war.

    That insight is part of the value of having kids play with dolls that have disabilities said Dr. Sian Jones co-founder of the Toy Box Diversity Lab at Queen Margaret University in Edinburgh Scotland. kraken тор Jones and her colleague Dr. Clare Uytman study how playing with dolls and toys with a range of physical challenges can reduce systemic inequality for disabled people. https://kra34tt.cc kra at It’s based on a theory of mirrors and windows by Rudine Sims Bishop a professor emerita of education at Ohio State University. Bishop realized that having diverse characters in books was good for all kids: It helps children from minority groups see themselves mirrored in the lives of book characters and it gives kids a window into the lives of others helping them build empathy. Jones says that when kids play with dolls that have mobility challenges for example it helps them identify and understand the struggles of people with disabilities whom they meet in real life. “Barbie in a wheelchair cannot use the doll’s house in their kindergarten classroom so they have to build a ramp in order for her to be able to access the door to their doll’s house for example” said Jones who lives with cerebral palsy. When she started her work incorporating disabled dolls into school curricula Jones said there were few available for purchase. She mostly had to make them herself. Now she can buy them from big companies like Lego and Mattel “which is wonderful.” Mazreku says the work to design the doll was well worth it. She recently got to bring one home to give to her 3-year-old daughter. “I brought Barbie home to her and gave her a chance to interact with her and see her things” Mazreku said. “And she looked at me and she said ‘She looks like Mommy.’ And that was so special for me.” Her daughter doesn’t have type 1 diabetes she said. “But she sees me every day living with it representing and understanding and showing the world and wearing my devices confidently and for her to see Barbie doing that was really special.”

    Extreme heat is a killer. A recent heat wave shows how much more deadly it’s becoming tripskan Extreme heat is a killer and its impact is becoming far far deadlier as the human-caused climate crisis supercharges temperatures according to a new study which estimates global warming tripled the number of deaths in the recent European heat wave. For more than a week temperatures in many parts of Europe spiked above 100 degrees Fahrenheit. Tourist attractions closed wildfires ripped through several countries and people struggled to cope on a continent where air conditioning is rare. https://tripscan.xyz трипскан The outcome was deadly. Thousands of people are estimated to have lost their lives according to a first-of-its-kind rapid analysis study published Wednesday. A team of researchers led by Imperial College London and the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine looked at 10 days of extreme heat between June 23 and July 2 across 12 European cities including London Paris Athens Madrid and Rome. They used historical weather data to calculate how intense the heat would have been if humans had not burned fossil fuels and warmed the world by 1.3 degrees Celsius. They found climate change made Europe’s heat wave 1 to 4 degrees Celsius 1.8 to 7.2 Fahrenheit hotter. The scientists then used research on the relationship between heat and daily deaths to estimate how many people lost their lives. They found approximately 2300 people died during ten days of heat across the 12 cities around 1500 more than would have died in a world without climate change. In other words global heating was responsible for 65 of the total death toll. “The results show how relatively small increases in the hottest temperatures can trigger huge surges in death” the study authors wrote. Heat has a particularly pernicious impact on people with underlying health conditions such as heart disease diabetes and respiratory problems. People over 65 years old were most affected accounting for 88 of the excess deaths according to the analysis. But heat can be deadly for anyone. Nearly 200 of the estimated deaths across the 12 cities were among those aged 20 to 65. Climate change was responsible for the vast majority of heat deaths in some cities. In Madrid it accounted for about 90 of estimated heat wave deaths the analysis found.
