The podcast is back, and Geoff is flying solo for the first time in 6 years. Thanks Vinod for everything you brought to the podcast. Geoff takes a look back at his 2024 round-the-world trip and other Canadian aviation experiences. Geoff checked the Island Hopper off his bucket list, travelling from Honolulu to Guam via the Marshall Islands and Micronesia. He forced a long layover in Honolulu to allow a visit to the city before heading out on the Island Hopper. The Island Hopper planes are old with some of the oldest Inflight Entertainment Systems Geoff has seen in years. Majuro airport and The Marshall Islands are in the middle of the Pacific on various atolls. This particular routing took Geoff via Kwajalein (no pictures at this stop!), Pohnpei and Chuuk (you can get passport stamps in Micronesia even if you are in transit) before landing in Guam. Geoff is a much bigger fan of the south side of Guam than the north side. Geoff took one of the last flights with United from Guam to Fukuoka. If you're flying to FUK, take the time to enjoy the observation deck. He then headed to Osaka via Hiroshima with the Shinkansen. Flight boarding in Japan is super efficient, and Geoff tried it first domestically from Osaka-Itami to Tokyo-Haneda. After spending time in Tokyo, Geoff flew onward to Copenhagen via Singapore. There is a wonderful 7-11 after security airside at Haneda that sells all sorts of Japanese treats. The Jewel in Singapore is lovely but is super busy on a summer Saturday night. A beach layover in Copenhagen is possible with a quick metro journey. Geoff enjoyed his first ever fifth freedom flight from Frankfurt to New York JFK on Singapore Airlines. If you're liking this episode experience, you may also enjoy Experience 2. "International Megahubs and Flight Ticketing." It's available wherever you listen to your podcasts. Geoff had some interesting domestic experiences in the second half of 2024. A widebody flight on a route not normally served by that plane, and subsequent upgrades. And then there was a massive storm system and hailstorm chaos in Calgary. Geoff also visited Canada's easternmost international airport in St. John's. And to build his knowledge, Geoff is now a successful student with distinction for IATA's training course on passenger fares and ticketing.

Tuesdays and Fridays are special days for a small group of students from Lac qui Parle Valley Schools near Milan. That's when the Milan Kids Club is in session at the former Milan Public School building.Rosalia Iowanes and Justleen Ponun, two teens employed by the program, have set up the volleyball net in the gym. Some students play barefoot. The sport is immensely popular in the Micronesian community.Justleen explained the volleyball connection.“Most of us would say it's our favorite sport because some of us grew up playing volleyball and yeah, volleyball is also like a favorite sport back in Micronesia,” she said. Justleen's family moved from Micronesia to Milan. However, Justleen was born in Willmar, 43 miles east of town.Her family is not alone. From Micronesia to MilanFamilies have been relocating from the Federated States of Micronesia in the Pacific Ocean to this southwest Minnesota town for more than 20 years. The small but steady stream of Micronesians arriving in this rural town, founded in the 19th Century by Norwegian immigrants, is a big change, explained program director Ann Thompson.The Micronesian community has boosted Milan's once declining population and brought a new energy to town, she added. Their presence has boosted the economy and infused youth into an aging populace. Charthttps://public.flourish.studio/visualisation/18102929/?utm_source=embed&utm_campaign=visualisation/18102929“Milan went from the oldest community in Chippewa County, oldest average age … a little bit of diversity, but not much to being the youngest community, growing population and really diverse,” Thompson said. “It's a big change.”Thompson said longtime residents have realized over time there are benefits to having an immigrant community in Milan: More kids in schools and more kids to clothe and feed.According to data from the 2020 U.S. Census, Micronesians made up 57 percent of Milan's population of 428. The town's numbers peaked in the 1940 census with 624 residents and trended downward until it hit its lowest number, 326, in 2000.Datahttps://public.flourish.studio/visualisation/18102809/?utm_source=embed&utm_campaign=visualisation/18102809Between 2000 and 2020, Milan's population grew by 31 percent, according to census data. Micronesia is a region of about 2,000 islands in the Pacific Ocean. The region also includes the island nation of the Federated States of Micronesia, which is nearly 7,000 miles away from Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport. Chuuk is one of the country's four states. Romanum is an island in Chuuk. And almost every person of Micronesian descent living in Milan, is from Romanum.How did Micronesians know about Milan, whose motto is “Norwegian Capital U.S.A.”? The connection begins with former Milan area resident, Erik Thompson, who served in the Peace Corps in Chuuk.  Thompson continued his Micronesian friendships after he left service. One of them visited Thompson in Milan. Thompson's friend later decided to settle in Milan with his family. Milan is roughly the same size as their island, Romanum, Erik Thompson told MPR News in 2010.“He thought he wouldn't be overwhelmed by the size of the place, and that I could speak his language so I could help him make a transition,” Thompson said of one of his friends from Romanum. “But he said he also wanted to bring his family over so kids could get a good education.”Afterward, others from Romanum moved to Milan as well.An agreement between Micronesia and the U.S. allows for citizens from both countries to work and travel freely between the two nations. Community cohesion can be noisyAnn Thompson says there were challenges for residents and newcomers.For example, Micronesians play music in the town park which might be too loud for some residents. They, in turn, may decline to directly ask for the music to be lowered, Thompson said, because of what she calls ‘Minnesota passive aggressiveness.'“There's angst,” Thompson said.Erika Raymond, the co-owner of E and J Micronesian Mart on Main street, says the park is packed every day with Micronesians.She says community members like to meet up at the park to play volleyball or basketball and they bring speakers to play music.“Some people just want peace and quiet but we're there every day making noises, but that's just how we are,” Raymond said. “We're a community that loves to hang around everyday. We're just very family-oriented. Not all of us are related. But if you're from somewhere and you come in and look, you'd think we're all related.”‘That's what I love about Milan'In 2007, Ann Thompson said a group of concerned citizens formed a nonprofit called the Greater Milan Initiative. The nonprofit paid $1 to the Lac qui Parle Valley School District for the former K-12 school which had been closed since 1990.The initiative manages the building and offers programs such as the kids club and a 4-H club. The WIC Clinic and other social service providers come by regularly to serve residents. The school district provides the funding for the kids club, Thompson said.  “They see this as a kind of an extra support group for the kids, kind of reinforcing what they're learning at school,” she said. “They have choices. They can play in the gym, or they can do art. We've been doing a lot of art exploration. We're working on this movie. That was their idea.”Nelisa Raymond is from Romanum. She's married and has a daughter in high school. She also works for the Appleton Milan Elementary School. Raymond remembers the day she arrived at the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport.“I came in April. And it's still cold over here. But there's no snow on the ground. So I open the door from the airport. It's like, whoa, it's cold and it's sunny,” Raymond said. “So I went back inside and I was like, ‘Oh my goodness.'”Erika Raymond said she is torn about returning to Romanum. She wants to return, but she has four children, ages 8 to 15, to think about.“As I'm getting older and older, I prefer back home. But then I have my kids so that's why we're here. I want them to get a good education,” she said. Raymond hopes they finish college and secure good jobs.Still, there's something about Milan.“It's a peaceful town. It's not crowded. And you feel safe with your kids roaming around town, and we feel safe,” Raymond said. “Yeah, that's what I love about Milan.”Correction (May 29, 2024): An earlier version of this story incorrectly stated who paid Lac qui Parle Valley School District for the school building. The story has been updated.

Although I hate the fact that we celebrate certain cultures only during certain months, I acknowledge that so much of the country sees diverse Americans as adjuncts, and with no group is that as profound as with Pacific Islanders. Admittedly, it is the group of Americans that I know least about, so I'm excited to learn, and to share my new knowledge with you. As I talk with educator Kecia McDonald, I realize how little I know about our nation's 50th state. Let's start with the most famous word, Aloha. So much more than a salutation, the Aloha Spirit brings each person to the self and is the foundation for projecting positive feelings to others. Starting with the word Aloha, one can immediately see that what most Mainlanders know about Hawaii has been reduced to eliminate a depth, beauty and almost hallowedness that seems to flow throughout the island--if you're looking closely enough. My next big line of inquiry--as a person of color--has been, "who are all the brown people?" So much diversity! Resisting the urge to run up to people asking, "what are you" (CRINGE), I could luckily rely on my friend Kecia to learn more about our nation's #1 most diverse county. What fun it was learning names of cultural groups I have never encountered. Polynesian peoples from Enewetak, Bikini, Rongelap, Kwajalein, Majuro, Yap, Chuuk, Pohnpei, and Kosrae enrich the culture of the Hawaiian islands. For me, learning these new words, a few new (for me) cultural hallmarks and traditions, as well as geography and migration stories has been an incredible way to spend time and further anchor my work.

Diplomātiskās pusdienas
Mikronēzija: maza valsts ar unikālu kultūras indentitāti un bez savas armijas

Diplomātiskās pusdienas

Dodamies uz Okeāniju. Raidījumā Diplomātiskās pusdienas aplūkojam Mikronēziju jeb kā valsti oficiāli dēvē Mikronēzijas Federatīvās Valstis. To veido četri štati — Yap, Chuuk, Pohnpei un Kosrae, kas atrodas Klusā okeāna rietumu daļā. Štatus kopā veido aptuveni 607 salas, taču Mikronēzija tāpat ir viena no pasaulē mazākajām valstīm. Tās sauszemes platība ir mazāka par Luksemburgu, taču kā reģions tā aptver vairāk nekā 2900 kvadrātkilometrus, vienlaicīgi šķērso piecas laika zonas. Interesanta ir arī šīs valsts vēsture. Proti, valsts 1886. gadā kļuva par Spānijas koloniju, bet vēlāk tā tika pārdota Vācijai. 1914. gadā Japāna pārņēma salas savā kontrolē un okupēja tās līdz 1944. gadam, kad tās sagrāba amerikāņu spēki. Otrā pasaules kara laikā šīs salas bija viens no centrālajiem kaujas laukiem. 1944. gadā operācija "Hailstone" bija masīvs ASV jūras spēku gaisa un virszemes uzbrukums Mikronēzijā, kas tika veikts kā daļa no amerikāņu ofensīvas pret Japānu. Bet, runājot par mūsdienām, Mikronēzija ir viena no tikai 22 valstīm, kurai nav savas armijas, tā vietā ASV kā kādreizējā ASV pārvaldītā teritorija sniedz palīdzību un ir atbildīgas par Mikronēzijas aizsardzību. Neskatoties uz nelielo izmēru, Mikronēzija ir mājvieta visdažādākajām etniskajām grupām un valodām. Faktiski visā reģionā runā vairāk nekā 30 dažādās valodās, tostarp čuku, japiešu, kosreju un pohnpeian. Šī daudzveidība ir palīdzējusi veidot unikālo Mikronēzijas kultūras identitāti, ko raksturo dziļa saikne ar dabisko vidi un spēcīga kopienas sajūta. Mikronēzijas Federatīvās Valstis ir pazīstamas ar savām skaistajām pludmalēm, dzidrajiem ūdeņiem un unikālo kultūru. Tomēr viena no tās mazāk zināmajām, bet nozīmīga iezīme ir tā, ka tai ir 14. lielākā ekskluzīvā ekonomiskā zona pasaulē. Ekskluzīva ekonomiskā zona ir jūras zona, kas stiepjas no valsts krasta līnijas. Un šajā zonā valstij ir īpašas tiesības un jurisdikcija attiecībā uz jūras resursu izpēti un izmantošanu, tostarp zveju, naftas un gāzes izpēti un citām saimnieciskām darbībām. Mikronēzijas gadījumā ekskluzīvās zonas platība ir aptuveni 2,9 miljoni kvadrātkilometru, kas ir lielāka nekā valsts kopējā sauszemes platība. Šī plašā jūras zona ir bagāta ar jūras resursiem, tostarp zivju, naftas un gāzes rezervēm, kā arī minerāliem. Valsts valdība ir ieviesusi politiku, lai nodrošinātu šo resursu ilgtspējīgu izmantošanu un pārvaldību, līdzsvarojot ekonomisko attīstību ar saglabāšanas pasākumiem. Turklāt valsts ekskluzīvā ekonomiskā zona atrodas stratēģiskā vietā Klusā okeāna rietumu daļā, padarot valsti par nozīmīgu spēlētāju reģionālajā politikā un ekonomikā. Valsts ir izveidojusi partnerattiecības ar kaimiņvalstīm un starptautiskām organizācijām, lai piesaistītu savus resursus un veicinātu reģionālo stabilitāti un sadarbību. Par to, kādēļ tiek veidotas ekskluzīvās ekonomiskās zonas un kā valstis tās var izveidot, detalizētāk stāsta Gundars Bērziņš, Biznesa, vadības un ekonomikas dekāns, profesors un vadošais pētnieks Latvijas Universitātē, kā arī Latvijas Zinātņu akadēmijas korespondētājloceklis. Vienlaicīgi Mikronēzijas ekonomika ir neliela, un tās pamatā galvenokārt ir naturālā lauksaimniecība un zvejniecība. Valstī ir ierobežoti dabas resursi un trūkst nozīmīgas rūpniecības attīstības. Valdība ir lielākais darba devējs valstī, un lielākā daļa iedzīvotāju strādā valsts sektorā. Privāto sektoru galvenokārt veido mazie uzņēmumi, piemēram, mazumtirdzniecības veikali, restorāni un ar tūrismu saistītas darbības. IKP uz vienu iedzīvotāju pēc pirktspējas paritātes ir aptuveni 10 reizes mazāks kā Latvijas un ir nedaudz virs 3 tūkstošiem liels. Viena no nozīmīgajām problēmām, ar ko saskaras Mikronēzija ir tās attālums un izolācija. Valsts atrodas Klusā okeāna rietumu daļā, tālu no galvenajiem tirgiem un transporta mezgliem. Šī izolācija apgrūtina preču importu un produktu eksportu, kas var radīt augstas pirmās nepieciešamības preču izmaksas. Vēl viens nozīmīgs izaicinājums ir valsts lielā atkarība no ārējās palīdzības un palīdzības. Mikronēzija ir jaunattīstības valsts un saņem ievērojamu finansiālu atbalstu no starptautiskām organizācijām, piemēram, Apvienoto Nāciju Organizācijas un Pasaules Bankas, un donorvalstīm, piemēram ASV un Ķīnas. Lai gan šī palīdzība ir bijusi ļoti svarīga valsts attīstībai, tā arī rada atkarību no ārējās palīdzības.

He completed a ThM under Paul Hiebert at TEDS before going on to doctoral work in cultural anthropology at Heidelberg University.The episode begins with Manuel sharing the fascinating trajectory his life has taken, beginning with his birth in Germany, through to his family's missions work in Micronesia (especially the island of Chuuk), and followed by stretches of time in Illinois, Germany, and Japan. Manuel brings his cultural expertise and curiosity to his work, and in the episode, he emphasizes the importance of a careful and detailed understanding of human communities, both in their beauty and in the difficult things one encounters therein. Such a practice enriches seminaries and churches, for it is a way to become “all things to all people,” maintains Manuel, and doing so demonstrates love and self-giving to those communities. Manuel himself has exhibited this nuanced anthropological work in his studies on human trafficking in small island communities, and concludes with some recommendations for how Christians can be agents of good in such spaces.Along the way, listeners will discover…Why Manuel thinks his wife is more German than he isSome of the challenges of being a cultural anthropologist, especially since people, unlike books, do not stay in one placeHow theologians, pastors, and ministers can learn from the study of cultureTo learn more about Dr. Manuel Rauchholz, visit his faculty page, read one of his publications in journals like the Asia Pacific Journal of Anthropology, watch his recent interview on abuse and the church with the Koinonia network, or better yet, come study with him at TEDS!

I spoke to my friend Lahaina, a storyteller and writer from the islands of Chuuk in the Federated States of Micronesia. Lahaina is a friend of Chellette Mina ( Episode 254). She proudly acknowledges her roots reviving from Tunnuk, the village of the notorious Chuukese musicians, and Uman Fonuweisomw, island of the legendary Chuukese warriors. Lahaina is currently expanding her ventures in storytelling through various projects, one of which is a cookbook of indigenous and traditional Micronesian recipes that come with blurbs of stories told to her from her elders. Other avenues where she tells stories are her travel blog and her Instagram. In our conversation Lahaina shares her experiences with the value of cultural preservation and her experiences with cultural adversity and growing up as a Chuukese woman. Lahaina speaks, reads and writes Chuukese - her native language, in which she also serves as a professional global interpreter and translator. Through her translation work, Lahaina helps her community breaks down barriers in the healthcare and justice systems, and emphasize her community member’s voices. She has been in the language field for almost 10 years. Her goal is to eventually be able to start an afterschool program that teaches the diaspora of Micronesians their culture and native language. Lahaina also pioneered the Chuukese Women Ambassadors, a group consisting of Chuukese women, with the main goal to build an avenue for Chuukese and Micronesian women to tell their stories. They successfully collected and presented a photovoice project and a birth story collection of Chuukese women to the Nation Historical Society. Through the organization of this project, The Chuukese Women Ambassadors were initiators of the revival of community gardening in the diaspora of Micronesian communities. Lahaina is a storyteller and a writer. She is currently writing a cookbook of collective Micronesian indigenous recipes to help promote healthy eating in her community through a decolonized diet. She also has a blog that tells her stories and experiences as she navigates her way, as a small island person in the big world. When her circumstances allows, Lahaina enjoys traveling to learn about other indigenous communities and culture. Above all, she is looking forward to connecting and working together with other individuals at the 3rd Indigenous Global Workshop in Sarayaku’s Territory. Learn more on Dreams Not Memes.

As our summer hiatus continues, it's awesome to be able to bring you with the support of XDEEP, another great episode from the Speaking Sidemount Patreon vault. This time I catch up with PJ Prinsloo. PJ is a technical diving instructor trainer and the Director, Technical Diving for RAID South Africa. As you'll hear, he is passionate about the benefits of sidemount and has a wealth of knowledge from the perspective of a sidemount diver, instructor, instructor trainer, and in his role at RAID. Last year PJ was inducted into the prestigious Explorers Club and in this episode, we go deep into his involvement in the stunning exploration of the Phoenician Wreck in Xlendi Bay off the island of Gozo, Malta. As you know, I spent two amazing seasons at Gozo Technical Diving and this is definitely a place very close to my heart. The exploration dives were at depths over 110m with 3-4 hour dive runtimes which took an immense amount of planning and attention to detail to execute safely. We also discuss sidemount diving and continue our voyage into the state of sidemount diving and instruction. We talk about what it takes to be a great sidemount instructor, the economic argument for focussing on smaller class sizes and more attention to course quality, PJ's thoughts on optimising your sidemount setup, sliding d-rings. We continue discussing sidemount CCR and how he sees this through the students that come on his courses. We finish reminiscing about our trips to Chuuk and the wrecks of Truk Lagoon.

"Her drunk friends would molest me almost every weekend," she says. "I started liking the feeling. I began masturbating constantly." When her mother discovered this she beat Jennene publicly with a 2x4. Her grandmother intervened just in time to prevent further damage, but Jennene still has symptoms. "At age 15 I was raped at a high school friend's house party," she says. "I had been a virgin until then. I felt like it was my fault." She never told anyone. At age 16 Jennene's mother introduced her to a 36 year old neighbor. "She kicked me out of the house at age 17 to live with this older man whom I had fallen in love with. I had my daughter 2 days before my 19th birthday." She drank her way into her 30s. "I was a cutter and I cut every time I was down." At 33 she tried to kill herself. She attended therapy and was diagnosed Bipolar and as suffering from PTSD. "Then I discovered digital art by accident," she shares."This is where I began to find my healing." Jennene has books on createspace.com and amazon.com.
