Check out: www.manitobah.com. and they have an artisans market as well. All Native craftsmen and designers. Finally, our local powwow raffles off Pendleton blankets every year.

Doom thinking is unproductive, I know, but it is hard not to feel a type of existential dread when faced with the latest climate science research. The ongoing research on the AMOC (Atlantic Meridian Ocean Current), for example, provides more and more terrifying results.

Political scientists: I really feel that we need to be fully aware of this research and we need to integrate it more seriously in our own research programmes!

Have you heard of the 1954 Hague Convention? It creates a world-wide general system of cultural property protection in armed conflict. Less well known are the systems of "Special Protection" (1954 Convention) and "Enhanced Protection" (1999 Second Protocol) intended to protect designated exceptional sites.
