Objective #10 is done. While most of the requirements look vague on paper (like most seminar classes do, to be honest), Dr. Clark's bio has a wonderful list of topics he's led seminars on -- including flamenco and tango.

The D.C. area's no-flying-needed way to see a space launch
Tuesday night treated me to the first space launch I’d seen in person–meaning close enough to hear it–since 2018. And unlike the previous three launches that I have been privileged to experience from that close, this one did not require a flight to Florida.
Instead, only a three-hour drive lay between my house and Virginia Space’s Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport, hosted at NASA’s Wallops Flight…

Pokémon Compass takes place in the Nexvie (NEX-vee) region. The name comes from the words Next, Nexus, Neck (as in neck of the woods), Vie (as in to vie for something), Betwixt, and XVI, the Roman numeral for sixteen. The region is based off of the mid-Atlantic United States. There are two reasons why I chose this place for a new region. First is that I live in the mid-Atlantic, and therefore feel qualified to talk about it. The second is that it will likely never be an actual region; NYC metro area (what Unova is based on) is mostly in the mid-Atlantic, meaning the rest of the area will never get an actual region. Since NYC is already covered, Nexvie is based off of Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, South Jersey, Washington DC, Upstate New York and Long Island. The region is divided into sixteen subregions (hence the name) which will be named and explained later.

Oscar and I have been out on a walk for less than 10 minutes and he got a tick on him already. He had brushed against a couple scrubby bushes, so that's probably where he got it.
I bring this up because it's the end of February and we live in the Mid Atlantic of the US. We've had a fairly cold winter, but it hasn't been cold enough if the ticks are already out and about.
If you have pets and normally don't use flea/tick prevention during the winter because of your usual climate, please reconsider using one all year (we do already thankfully, and his short hair makes spotting them easier). As temperatures rise, regions where insects die during the winter will see ever shortening seasons without harmful pests.

The Ancient and Medieval American Mississippian culture 500-1500 AD
Going down a deep dive of the Mississippian mound culture of precolumbian United States.
I knew some stuff about the topic, pretty basic and precursory information, but now I think I'm gonna do some more in depth research. It's just fascinating to learn how throughout the Mississippi river region and deep south there were large cities that rivaled medieval cities in Europe with populations in the tens of thousands. Cahokia Illinois for example.
And they made all kinds of really cool artifacts
They had trade routes all over North America. For example copper from the Great Lakes region, shells from the Atlantic and Gulf Coast, and Obsidian from Mexico. In addition their own goods have been found exported to archaeological sites all over North America.
Then around the 14th century the Little Ice Age started, which was basically a sudden drop in global temperatures lasting until the mid 19th century, which resulted in crop failures and famine worldwide. In addition large populations were already stretching the food resources and agriculture of the area. This resulted in the decline of urban culture among the Mississippians. At the time in Eurasia the same was happening, which helped bring about the Black Death. So there were hard times all around. The 14th century was a bad time to be alive almost everywhere. Final collapse occurred in the 16th century when smallpox swept through the Americas after European contact.
Unfortunately for us they had no system of writing, at least none that can be found. So we will probably never know their story and history as well as say the ancient Romans. All that we know is pieced together through archaeological findings and oral history of their modern descendants.
Anyway I'm gonna find some good audiobooks to listen to on the subject while I do my weightlifting.
