On my way home from the farmers market this morning, I stop at the shell gas station to get gas.

"On my way home from the farmers market this morning, I stop at the shell gas station to get gas.

The gas station had no gas. Seriously, they were out of regular gas! Proceed 2 miles down the road to another gas station and I ran out of gas (I know what you're thinking.. She should have gotten gas sooner but I didn't so I'll proceed with the story). Myla is screaming and it's insanely hot out. I called a tow company to bring gas and they couldn't be there for an hour, so I called and asked for a police officer to let me sit in their car in the air conditioning while I waited. Larison, an officer for Kalamazoo Public Safety, arrived and we were able to cool off in her car. She told me to call and cancel the tow. She called a fellow officer and asked her to bring their gas can. I wish I would have gotten her name. After putting gas in my car, she followed me to the gas station to make sure I got there okay. Thank you ladies for helping this frazzled momma out today!
While I was in the car with Larison, we got to talking, and I asked her if she wanted to hold Myla. I have never seen her smile so big and talk so much! I got to thinking about all that has been going on with police officers. They aren't just police officers, they are normal people just like us! These men and women only want to do good, they have hearts too. Don't let the very few who aren't, be the image you portray for all of them. This is what police officers do.

BEGINNING OF FORMAL EDUCATION IN SENYA BERAKU.

BEGINNING OF FORMAL EDUCATION IN SENYA BERAKU. The spirit of every society is its religion (what it believes in in terms of values and morals); the soul is in its education (what it learns and teaches) and the body is in its economy ( what it produces and distributes). The Senya Beraku community, like every African society, didn't receive its education system from the Europeans as we were deceived to believe. For the people of Senya, even writing, was already in existence before Europeans arrived, except that they used "biriw" (charcoal) to write on surfaces such as clay walls and the bare ground, giving birth to the adage, "Ɔni sɛnyi igowo" (Preserve it on walls), when sending warning to somebody, especially disobedient children. As a result the ancient writings  with such characters survive the test of time. But thank God the characters and the concept behind the building of the characters were successfully passed on to present generation. And I am privileged ...

Archaeologists have long suspected that some of the "heads" on Easter Island had a buried body.

Image
Archaeologists have long suspected that some of the "heads" on Easter Island had a buried body. At the same time, the "giant heads," several meters high, were thought to be an exception. In fact, if these heads had an underlying body, they would have had to be real stone giants, at least 20 meters tall, to meet the proportions. Recent excavations have shown that the "giant heads" on Easter Island are actually buried "stone giants" whose heads emerged from the earth.. How did statues weighing several tons end up almost 20 meters deep? If they did it on purpose, how did they manage to do it without breaking them? Easter Island is little more than a small island. Where did they get the manpower to bury dozens and dozens of "stone giants" in the middle of the Ocean? Unanswered questions. ... The Egyptians were able to do similar things, but they had the manpower of an empire at their disposal. What labor force did the islanders of tiny Eas...

They called it a 'death march' because of the way they died.

"They called it a 'death march' because of the way they died. If you stopped on the road, you were killed. If you had a malaria attack, they killed you. If you had to stop to defecate, they killed you. If you just couldn't take another step, they killed you." After nearly 80,000 American and Filipino soldiers surrendered to the Japanese following the excruciating three-month Battle of Bataan, there were even greater horrors in store for them. The prisoners were forced to march more than 60 miles through the tropical heat of the Philippines with almost no water and just one bowl of rice for the entire week. And those who survived the marching were treated to worse brutality by their captors. The luckier victims were shot to death, while others were disemboweled, emasculated, decapitated, or even crucified. In the end, as many as 18,000 prisoners were dead within the span of just ten days.

Breaking out of Black and White Having the ability to quickly react to any given scenario with a yay or nay response can be quite useful in every day life.

Breaking out of Black and White Having the ability to quickly react to any given scenario with a yay or nay response can be quite useful in every day life. Things such as "Should I start crossing the street exactly now?" Or "should I touch this glowing object?" I wouldn't tell anyone to think otherwise- but when it comes down to things we all know should be thought out in proper, most people do tend to still fall into knee-jerk reactions. This isn't anything new for us as humans. The foundations of many ancient esoteric practices are at least in part designed to combat these sorts of reactions. Practices such as Taoism, Buddhism, Hermetics, and even Christianity. Eastern practices tend to lean farther towards speaking directly about dispelling the thought patterns that give rise to these types of reactions. But any spiritual path that includes "Unity" or "Onenes" involves dispelling what is most commonly known as "duality". The ...

Isoko Kingdom Isoko people are an ethnolinguistic group who inhabit the Isoko region of Delta State and Bayelsa State, Nigeria. They are people of southern Nigeria, near the northwestern Niger delta. Isoko ancestors migrated from Benin Kingdom in about 1600 AD at the same time as the ancestors of Aboh. The ancestors in the first group were Erowa (the senior) Uzere, and Okpe. Isoko oral history told that the second group led by ancestors of Iyede left Benin about 1650- 1700 AD during the reign of Oba Ozolua, the Oba of Benin. After, a short while the ancestors of Ughelli, Ogor and Agbarha- Otor (3 brothers) in Ughelli North Local Government area followed the trail of Iyede ancestors and settled in their present sites. Between 1600-1700 AD there were many migrations from Benin kingdom to many parts of the present Edo and Delta States as a result of incessant internecine wars. There were further migrations by some of the first and second groups and in some cases their children moved from ...

𝗔 𝗚𝗘𝗡𝗜𝗨𝗦 𝗕𝗬 𝗕𝗜𝗥𝗧𝗛

𝗔 𝗚𝗘𝗡𝗜𝗨𝗦 𝗕𝗬 𝗕𝗜𝗥𝗧𝗛 The most learned woman of the 17th century was undoubtedly Anna van Schurman, a polymath who spent her life arguing that women should receive an education as long as it did not interfere with their domestic duties. Other scholars called her the 'Star of Utrecht', the 'Dutch Minerva', the 'Tenth Muse', 'a miracle of the gentler sex', the 'Incomparable Virgin', the 'Oracle of Utrecht' and the 'Jewel of Learned Women', all of which sounds pretty outstanding for a time when the vast majority of women were thought to be intellectually inferior to men.  But then she was different, a prodigy whose brain could not be contained. A Dutch Calvinist, she was born in Cologne in 1607. Her family was wealthy, pious, educated, well-connected and modern, as her father broke the conventions of the time by teaching her along with his sons. He may have had no choice, for Anna was so curious and clever that she could re...

He entrusted his 16-year-old daughter with the responsibility

Image
In the late colonial era, fathers typically supported their daughters by helping them find suitable husbands, providing dowries, and sometimes arranging for their education to help them manage large households. However, Eliza Pinckney’s father took a different approach. He entrusted his 16-year-old daughter with the responsibility of managing his struggling rice plantations in South Carolina while he returned to the West Indies. Her dowry consisted of access to her father’s business connections, a collection of seeds sent from #Antigua, and a group of enslaved people whose labor was crucial to her business's success. These assets proved to be a fortuitous combination for a young woman like Pinckney, whose favorite subject at her British finishing school had been botany, rather than the more traditional French or needlework. Embracing her interest in botany, Pinckney conducted experiments with various crops, including alfalfa, ginger, hemp, and flax. Her most significant achievemen...
