Mahiya Mahi is an independent candidate for Rajshahi-1 (Godagari-Tanore). The actress is participating in this election for the first time. Its symbol is a truck. He himself is a constituent of Dhaka’s Uttara. But since he is a candidate this time, he is deprived of the right to vote.

Mahia told the media, “I am a constituent of Uttara in Dhaka. Voting is usually held there. But this time I can’t go because there are elections.” Since he is a candidate, he should stay in the district. So you won’t be voting in your area this time.

Milly Zantow
Milly Zantow changed recycling in Wisconsin and the world. When she learned about a problem facing her Sauk County community — a landfill closing much earlier than it should — she took action by focusing on recycling. At that time, no one was recycling plastics, but through her ingenuity, Zantow found a way and developed the idea for the numbering system to identify plastics for recycling.
Electa Quinney
Electa Quinney was Wisconsin’s first-known public school teacher and a notable mentor in the Mohican community. Because of the impactful time in which she lived, Quinney’s story shines a light on the broader story of the Stockbridge-Munsee Mohicans who used non-Native and traditional Native education to preserve their ways of life.

Carrie Frost was a fly fishing entrepreneur who paved the way for other female business owners in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Even though women could not vote and in many cases could not own property, Frost created a successful manufacturing company, and she gave more than 150 Stevens Point women a chance to earn their wages at a time when they were not often able to do so.

The mystery surrounding the Lost Colony, Roanoke and Sir Walter Raleigh’s early explorers is one that’s fascinated generations of North Carolinians.
Next week, archaeologists will dig in the Elizabethan Gardens with hopes of finding new evidence of the lost “Algonquian village of Roanoke” — which was home to Sir Walter Raleigh’s explorers in 1584.
Last summer, the First Colony Foundation team uncovered tantalizing clues in the ongoing mystery. They dug up shards of Algonquian pottery dating back to the 1500s, as well as a ring of copper wire they believe could have been an earring that once adorned a warrior from an indigenous tribe.
“Finding domestic pottery – the type used for cooking – in close proximity to an apparent piece of Native American jewelry, strongly confirms that we are digging in the midst of a settlement,” says Eric Klingelhofer, the First Colony Foundation’s Vice President for Research.
And Roanoke is the only known village at that site.
A copper ring could mean a village once stood in the Elizabethan Gardens
Historians say copper had an almost spiritual significance for the indigenous tribes.
“They prized the metal the way the English valued gold and silver. For example, tribal chiefs would honor brave warriors with trinkets made of beaten copper, indicating the value native peoples placed on it,” said a release from the First Colony Foundation.
The ring, in particular, supports the idea they may have found remnants of Roanoke.

MANTEO, N.C., Feb. 28, 2024 – Archaeologists with First Colony Foundation will begin a new dig at Roanoke Island’s Elizabethan Gardens next week, looking for more evidence of the Algonquian village of Roanoac that hosted Sir Walter Raleigh’s explorers in 1584. The weeklong dig, starting Monday, March 4, is the first of two excavations the foundation has slated, with another set for Fort Raleigh later in the spring.
The upcoming Elizabethan Gardens dig builds on tantalizing finds uncovered last summer, when the First Colony Foundation team uncovered sherds of Algonquian pottery dating to that time – an interesting find, by itself — but the most intriguing discovery was a ring of copper wire. About the size of a quarter, the loop could have been an earring that once adorned a Native American warrior.
“Finding domestic pottery – the type used for cooking – in close proximity to an apparent piece of Native American jewelry, strongly confirms that we are digging in the midst of a settlement,” says Eric Klingelhofer, the First Colony Foundation’s Vice President for Research. “And Roanoac is the only known village at that site.”
The ring, in particular, supports that view. Made of drawn copper, the wire was almost certainly brought to America by English explorers as part of their trade goods. Local natives did not have the technology to produce such rounded strands. And neither the French nor the Spanish ventured as far north as Roanoke Island to trade.
For Native Americans, copper had an almost spiritual significance. They prized the metal the way the English valued gold and silver. For example, tribal chiefs would honor brave warriors with trinkets…
