Grogue
|
Grogue, also known as grogu or grogo (derived from English "grog"), is a strong Cape Verdean alcoholic beverage made from sugarcane. Nearly all the sugarcane is used in the production of grogue. The cane is processed in a press known as a "trapiche".
It is the basis for a Cape Verdean cocktail known as "ponche" (derived from the English word "punch"), made with lime and molasses, like the "poncha" of the island of Madeira.
Grogue and sugarcane production is mostly in Santo Antão and Santiago.
Grogue is used as a base for medicine. Herbs such as common rue, rosemary, or anise are added. There is also a grogue preparation made with percebes (goose neck barnacles).
It is made in a traditional way and because of this there are a lot of different versions on the market. The government of Cabo Verde is busy with a European company to introduce grogue on the European markets. This will be a fully controlled grogue of the best quality by the name 'Grogue Official'.
In some tourist locations, caipirinhas are made with grogue.

Alex G
|
Alexander Giannascoli (born February 3, 1993), better known by his stage names Alex G or, formerly, (Sandy) Alex G, is an American musician and singer-songwriter. He started his career releasing albums himself on Bandcamp and started getting fans with his label debut, "DSU" (2014), released on Orchid Tapes and a lot of people liked it. He later signed with Lucky Number, who rereleased his earlier releases, "Rules" and "Trick" (2012). In 2015, he joined Domino Recording Company and released his sixth studio album, "Beach Music". He followed it in 2017 with "Rocket", which even more people liked. Giannascoli's eighth studio album, "House of Sugar", was released in 2019, and his ninth, "God Save the Animals", in 2022.
Early life and career.
Giannascoli was born in 1993 in Havertown, Pennsylvania. His father's family is from Abruzzo, a region in Southern Italy. At age 11, he learned how to play the guitar that his brother gave him and started recording music. While attending Haverford High School, Giannascoli made two albums that he shared with friends. He tested different styles while making collaborative music, which included his brother, singer/songwriter/producer David Allen Scoli, and himself called The Scoli Xtreme, the "goth techno" he made with his sister in their band MOTHER, as well as the projects involving his high school band The Skin Cells, described as "pop rock that accidentally ended up being punk". The Skin Cells band where most unreleased music from Alex was released (such as "Tie me down", "Nintendo 64", and more). In 2011, Giannascoli enrolled at Temple University, where he studied English in hopes of becoming a teacher, but eventually left to pursue a musical career.
After self-releasing a bunch of albums, EPs, and singles on Bandcamp from 2010 to 2012, Giannascoli's popularity spread through word of mouth, blogs, and testimonials by other musicians. "The Fader" called Giannascoli "the internet's secret best songwriter." This led to Orchid Tapes signing Giannascoli, as well as the release of his label debut "DSU" (2014), which critics raved about. Following the release of the album, Giannascoli went on tour in North America and Europe. In November, "DSU" was released by Lucky Number in Europe on all formats with two new bonus tracks. The label later also reissued his two preceding releases, 2012's "Rules" and "Trick".
In 2015, Giannascoli signed with Domino Recording Company and released that label's debut "Beach Music" on October 9. The following year, Giannascoli worked with Frank Ocean on his albums "Endless" and "Blonde", providing guitar and writing music for several songs.
On March 2, 2017, Giannascoli announced that his second album with Domino, titled "Rocket", would be released on May 19 and shared the first two singles, "Bobby" and "Witch". On April 4, Giannascoli announced the change of his stage name from Alex G to (Sandy) Alex G, with no further explanation, and shared another single from the album, "Proud". The music publication "Spin" attributed the name change to a legal conflict with singer and YouTuber Alex Blue, who was operating at the time under the trademarked name "Alex G". On choosing the name 'Sandy', Giannascoli said it "was the first thing [he] put on Bandcamp" and that he had "just used that ‘Sandy’ as a sort of [social media] tag" since then. On May 4, he released two more singles, "Brick" and "Sportstar", before the release of the album. "Rocket" received good reviews and appeared on multiple publications' year-end lists of the best albums of 2017.
Giannascoli's eighth studio album, "House of Sugar", was released on September 13, 2019. The album received positive reviews and placed 17th on Pitchfork's year-end best albums list. In June 2020, he dropped "(Sandy)" from his stage name, returning to going by Alex G.
Giannascoli scored the film "We're All Going to the World's Fair", released on April 8, 2022. Giannascoli also scored Jane Schoenbrun's next film "I Saw the TV Glow", which is being released by A24 in 2024.
Giannascoli's ninth studio album, "God Save the Animals" was released on September 23, 2022.
In January 2024, Giannascoli announced his signing with RCA Records and an upcoming tour supporting the band Foo Fighters.
Musical style.
Giannascoli's music is often said to be indie rock with a lo-fi aesthetic because he records all of his music by himself in his home. He is compared a lot to singer-songwriter Elliott Smith, who's an idol of his. Other comparisons include Built to Spill and The Martinis. "The Philadelphia Inquirer" praised him as "a particularly gifted melody writer" whose "fuzzy, sometimes distorted songs, which hark back to slightly askew 1990s bands such as Pavement, can't hide his skill as a pop craftsman and a constructor of elliptical narratives that call for repeated listening." He stated that his creative process is usually working alone in his room with his guitar and adding other instruments later. When asked about working in a professional recording studio, he replied "I feel like I'm eventually going to have to do that, but I just don't want to. Because I don't know how to work all that stuff, and I don't want anyone else to have control. I just want to follow my own ideas, and I'm uncomfortable doing it any other way." Despite being formerly hesitant to record his music in professional studios, Giannascoli's "God Save the Animals" was studio-recorded with help from Jacob Portrait during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Palm wine
|
Palm wine, is an alcoholic drink made from the sap of palm trees such as the palmyra, date palms, and coconut palms. It is common in various parts of Africa, the Caribbean, South America, South Asia, Southeast Asia, and Micronesia.
Palm wine production by smallholders and individual farmers may help conservation. Palm trees may become a source of regular household income. This may be worth more than the value of timber sold.
Tapping.
The sap is extracted and collected by a tapper. The sap is usually collected from the cut flower of the palm tree. A container is fastened to the flower stump to collect the sap. The white liquid that initially collects tends to be very sweet. It is not alcoholic before it is fermented. Another method is the felling of the entire tree. When this is done a fire is sometimes lit at the cut end to help the collection of sap.
Palm sap starts fermenting immediately after it is collected. This is due to natural yeasts in the air (often helped by yeast left in the collecting container). Within two hours, fermentation produces an aromatic wine of up to 4% alcohol content, mildly intoxicating and sweet. The wine may be allowed to ferment longer, up to a day, for a stronger, more sour, and acidic taste, which some people prefer. Longer fermentation produces vinegar instead of stronger wine.
Distilled.
Palm wine may be distilled to create a stronger drink, which goes by different names depending on the region (e.g., "arrack", "palm feni (liquor)", "", "village gin", "charayam", and "country whiskey").
In Nigeria, this is commonly called palm wine. In southwestern Nigeria and some parts of Cameroon, it is also known as "Emu" or "Matango". In both Congos, it is called "nsámbá". In parts of southern Ghana, distilled palm wine is called "akpeteshi" or "burukutu". In Togo and Benin, it is called "sodabe. I"n Tunisia it is called "lagmi". In coastal parts of Kenya, it is known as "mnazi". In India, it is called "toddy". In Ivory Coast, it is called "koutoukou".
In the Philippines, the most common distilled palm liquor is "lambanog" which is made from aged "tubâ". It has very high alcohol by volume, at 40 to 45% abv (80 to 90 proof).

Isotakeru-no-kami
|
, also called Itakeru-no-mikoto, is a god (kami) in Japanese mythology. He is the son of Susanoo. He is the god of forests and trees. People worship him at Itakiso Shrine and at Takase Shrine
He is only called Isotakeru in the book Nihon Shoki. In the book Kojiki, he is called Oyabiko.
Myths.
The Nihon Shoki says that Susanoo and Isotakeru were sent away from the land of Takamagahara. They went to the land of Silla. They did not like it there and said it was not a good land. They went by boat to Izumo. Susanoo gave his son tree seeds from Takamagahara and told him to plant the seeds all over Japan.
Isotakeru and his sisters, , planted the seeds. They planted trees across Japan. The country became covered in forests. In the end they came to Kii Province, which was called the “country of trees.”
Another story says something different. In this story, Susanoo was jealous of the rich land of Han. He pulled out many hairs from his body. Each hair became a kind of tree. His children, Isotakeru, Oyatsuhime, and Tsumatsuhime, then spread the seeds across Japan. At last, they settled in Kii.
Different types of trees come from hair in different parts of his body. For example hair from his beard became cryptomeria and hair from his eybrows became camphors.
Later in the Kojiki, during the story of the Hare of Inaba, Isotakeru helped Onamuchi when his eighty brothers tried to attack him.
Shrines.
Itakiso Shrine was first built on the land of today’s Hinokuma Shrine. During the time of Emperor Suinin, it was moved to a place called “Anomori.” In the year 713, it was moved again to its place today.

Takehazuchi
|
is a Japanese kami of weaving.
Names and identity.
Takehazuchi is also called . Legends do not agree on their gender.
Many sources say they are a fifth-generation descendant of Takamimusubi. Some say it goes through the god Sukunabikona.
Some analysis argues that Takehazuchi is a name used to refer to either Ame no Wakahiko or his wife shitateruhime-no-mikoto and this explains the ambiguity in gender.
Myths.
In the tale of the rock cave of heaven, Takehazuchi hung bright streamers on the sacred Masakaki tree to help lure Amaterasu out.
During the Tenson kōrin (descent of the heavenly grandson) a star god, Amatsu-Mikaboshi, refused to submit. The Nihon Shoki has two passages about his defeat:
All versions agree that Amatsu-Mikaboshi’s fall cleared the way for the heavenly descent.
Because the name begins with take (“brave”), some writers see Takehazuchi as a war deity. Others say the goddess “wove” the unruly stars into order, calming them.
Connection with weaving and the Shitori clan.
The , who were ancient weavers, believed Takehazuchi was their ancestor.
Their home shrine is Shitori Shrine, where Takehazuchi and Shitateru-hime are both worshipped as weaving deities.
Shrine legend says Shitateru-hime sailed from izumo, lived on the mountain behind the shrine, and after death was buried in a kofun within the shrine grounds.
Shrines.
Takehazuchi is mainly honoured at: Shitori Shrine, , and .

Electric spark
|
An Electric spark is a sudden burst of electricity that takes place when a very strong electric field makes a path through something that usually doesn't conduct electricity, like air or gases. This can happen when there's a buildup of electric charge in one place and it suddenly discharges. Michael Faraday, a famous scientist, was one of the first to study how electric sparks form.
When the electric field becomes strong enough, it overcomes the normal resistance of the material and creates a channel through which the electricity can flow. This channel becomes ionized, which means the atoms in the material lose or gain electrons, making it able to conduct electricity.
The strength of the electric field needed to create a spark depends on the material involved. For air, which is commonly where electric spark takes place, the breakdown strength is about 30,000 volts per centimeter at sea level. In other words, when the electric field reaches this level, it's strong enough to make a spark jump through the air.
Electric sparks are often seen in situations like lightning during storms or when static electricity builds up and discharges, such as when you touch a metal object after shuffling your feet on a carpet. They can also happen in machinery, electronics, and in scientific experiments.
Uses and Dangers.
These sparks can be dangerous because they can cause fires or explosions if they happen near flammable materials or in environments with gases that can ignite. However, they are also useful in many applications, such as in spark plugs for igniting fuel in engines, in welding, and in certain types of sensors and detectors.

Munakata clan
|
The is a Japanese clan that looks after Munakata Taisha. The clan was known for being skilled at sailing.
They are said to have the same origin as the Izumo clan, but they serve the daughters of Susanoo instead of Susanoo himself.
Members of the clan are buried in the .
The clan had strong ties with the Imperial family. They sometimes married into the imperial family and kept trade with mainland Asia even after Japan stopped official missions to China. They also controlled sea trade and rights.
Today, only priests live on Okinoshima, a sacred island with a large stone altar. From 1954 to 1972, archaeologists studied the island and found signs of old religious ceremonies and objects from the 4th to 9th centuries. These finds helped people understand early Shinto worship.
Over 100,000 objects have been found on Okinoshima. Some came from China, Korea, and Iran. Many are now National Treasures or Important Cultural Properties. People are not allowed to talk about what happens on Okinoshima or take anything from it.
If the clan began as Kuni no miyatsuko and later became priests at Munakata Taisha, they share a similar past with the of Aso Shrine, the of Atsuta Shrine, the Izumo clan of Izumo-taisha, the of , and the Yamato clan of Ōyamato Shrine.

Nintendo Space World

Nintendo Space World was a yearly trade show hosted by Nintendo. It was also known by its former names Shoshinkai and Famicom Space World. It ran from 1989 until 2001. There was not a convention in 1998 because Nintendo wasn't able to show enough new games for the 64DD.
Nintendo would use these events to show new games that they were working on, as well as new consoles and other news. Some things that were announced at these conventions were never released, like the Super Mario 128 project.
The last convention was held from August 24–26, 2001. During the convention, the upcoming GameCube was shown alongside the recently released Game Boy Advance. A clip from "" was also shown. The "Wind Waker" clip recieved backlash from people who didn't like the cel-shaded art style the game was in.
