From accounts with relatives from Kipnuk, the village is a total loss. One of my Elder relatives says it's wiped out. Those rectangular dots in the distance? Houses floating away

Tip for any journalist dropping in. Head over from the south going north. This Willamette River view is off a very nice new pedestrian path less than a quarter mile behind the ICE facility

lots of traffic crowd control sequences with this same conclusion. gates open for patrol to march crowd away to clear entrance, cars leave/enter, guard returns inside. Rinse/repeat.

A fun assignment to see to publish for Indigenous Peoples’ Day

At the premiere of the new short film, Following Enchantment's Line, Jock Soto, the Diné and Puerto Rican ballet dancer, could be seen gliding underneath vast blue New Mexico skies - the only time the audience saw him dance. Afterward, as the lights went up in Santa Fe's Lensic Performing Arts Center, lightning cracked the summer monsoon clouds. Hard rain echoed inside the theater, as Soto led a live rehearsal with dancers from Ballet Taos accompanied by classical music from his friend Laura Ortman.
The evening exemplified Soto's desire to share the rhythm and grace he cultivated during 24 years with the New York City Ballet.
"I started hoop dancing with my mother," Soto said.
"And I continued hoop dancing until I discovered ballet. And ballet was just my life. That's all I wanted to do. My mother and father found the only local ballet school in Phoenix, Arizona, which was hours from my house. So my dad would drive there every day, and I got a full scholarship because I was the only guy in the class."
