Four Lenape Middle School students hope participating in the NASA TechRise challenge will open doors in the STEM field, writes Emily Neil for the WHYY.

The team was one of sixty nationwide who won an opportunity to participate. The competition is designed for sixth- through 12th-grade students.

The Central Bucks School District students’ team worked with Jennifer Conver, a gifted support teacher at Lenape Middle School, and NASA mentors to make a rocket-powered lander that will be tested by NASA scientists on a surface that mimics the moon.

Mia Sasser, Kayleigh Razon, Emma Lofts, and Aanika Oka, all 15-year-olds, have been working together since January constructing what they refer to as the SOBIE (surface object identification) experiment.

Challenges such as this one are especially important for girls who are interested in STEM and science, explained Razon.

“I feel like we need to build the foundation for where girls feel welcomed and the STEM community,” she said.

“That’s what I really hope this project shows is to open more opportunities to little girls who are more curious about what areas they want to do when they grow older.”

    At Baghdad’s request: UN mission in Iraq to end after two decades

    The UN Security Council has unanimously decided to end the UN’s political mission in Iraq by the end of 2025, following a request from Iraqi Prime Minister Mohamed Shia al-Sudani. The decision reflects Iraq’s desire to assert its sovereignty, with support from major global powers acknowledging the country’s readiness to manage its political future independently.

    At the request of Baghdad, the UN Security Council unanimously decided Friday that the United Nations political mission in Iraq will leave the country at the end of 2025 after more than 20 years.

    The Iraqi government welcomed the decision, saying it reflected progress and stability in the country since the United Nations Assistance Mission for Iraq (UNAMI) was established in 2003 after the US-led invasion and fall of Saddam Hussein.

    But analysts say the mission has struggled to make an impact in areas such as impunity, and that its exit is part of a trend for host nations to reject UN missions.

    The UNSC resolution adopted on Friday extended the mission’s mandate until December 31, 2025 “after which UNAMI will cease all work and operations.”

    The mission has about 700 staff, with tasks including advising the government on political dialogue and reconciliation, as well as helping with elections and security sector reform.

    An Iraqi government spokesman said the UNSC decision marked “the completion of the political building process initiated in 2003 after the fall of the dictatorial regime.”

    Earlier this month, in a letter to Security Council, Iraqi Prime Minister Mohamed Shia al-Sudani said UNAMI had overcome “great and varied challenges” and that “the grounds for having a political mission in Iraq” no longer exist.

    During the mission’s previous renewal in May 2023, the Council asked the secretary-general to launch a review, which was overseen by German diplomat Volker Perthes.

    In a report issued in March, Perthes signaled that the…

    Stitt compact proposal addresses public-safety challenges

    To address the growing problem of unregistered tribal tags creating roadside danger for law enforcement, and to ensure all Oklahoma drivers pay tolls on state turnpikes, Gov. Kevin Stitt has submitted a model compact to all tribes that issue tribal license plates.

    Under the compact, the State of Oklahoma would manufacture all tribal tags and therefore also have records of associated registration information. Tribal governments would face no associated cost from production and registration but would nonetheless receive a significant share of tag revenue to use as they wish.

    “As you are likely aware, the State of Oklahoma has recently entered new, long-term motor vehicle registration and license tag compacts with the Chickasaw and Choctaw Nations,” Stitt wrote in a letter sent to numerous tribal government leaders. “Those compacts reflect a carefully considered agreement that provides mutual benefit to the State and the respective Tribal Nations. The purpose of this letter is to further convey my desire to enter long-term motor vehicle registration and license tag compacts with all of Oklahoma’s tribal partners. To that end, my office has prepared the attached model compact, which reflects the same terms as those agreed to by the Chickasaw and Choctaw Nations.”

    Under Stitt’s proposal, members of any compacting tribe would pay the same amount for a tribal tag that non-Indians pay for traditional state-issued car tags. Much of that money supports road maintenance in Oklahoma.

    But compacting tribes would receive a significant share of the funds generated by the sale of their tribe’s tags, and the compacts state that compacting tribes may use those funds at the tribe’s “exclusive discretion,” and tribal governments may even use that revenue to provide rebates to tribal citizens to offset the cost of purchasing a tribal tag.

    The agreement would also make it easier for many tribal citizens to obtain tribal…

    Key Takeaways:

    • Sadr Renews The Call To Close The U.S. Embassy; IHEC Proposes New Date For The Kurdistan Region’s Legislative Elections – On May 28, Muqtada al-Sadr called for the expulsion of the U.S. ambassador and the closure of Washington’s embassy “without bloodshed.” Sadr made his call in response to continued U.S. support for Israel, which he accused of committing war crimes and acts of terrorism against civilians in Gaza. Sadr followed up with a televised speech on May 29, in which he attacked the U.S. over what he called double standards and enabling Israeli genocide against Palestinians. Notably, Sadr’s speech displayed the new banner of his rebranded political movement, the National Shia Trend (al-Tayyar al-Watani al-Shee’ie). On May 29, Iraq’s Independent High Electoral Commission (IHEC) sent a letter to the president of the KRG in which it proposed September 5 as the new date for holding the long-delayed legislative elections in the region. The KRG has yet to make a public response to the proposal. In other developments, on May 26, Iraqi PM Mohammed al-Sudani discussed with the UN Secretary General, Antonio Guterres, his government’s request to end the work of the UN Assistance Mission to Iraq (UNAMI), and the timeline for reducing staff levels at the mission. On May 30, KRG PM Masrour Barzani held a series of meetings with Iraqi leaders, starting with National Security Adviser Qasim al-Araji and PM Sudani. Barzani said his goal was to focus on mutual priorities and common interests in counter-terrorism, dealing with climate change, and cooperation in building stronger business ties and developing Iraq’s banking sector, and not get stuck on “the decade-old disputes.” more…

    New Park, Welakamike Creekside Park​, Created In Collegeville

    COLLEGEVILLE, PA — A Montgomery County municipality, federal, state, and county leaders, a local college, and a nonprofit have all teamed up to create a new park for the community along Perkiomen Creek.

    The new Welakamike Creekside Park in Collegeville is located just off of First Avenue, above Central Perkiomen Park and just below Perkiomen Bridge and Ridge Pike. It runs along the creek from Main Street roughly to the end of the Collegeville Shopping Center on Route 29.

    It was in part created thanks to FEMA grants which allowed Collegeville to purchase 20 homes which had been damaged or destroyed by Hurricane Ida. The name “Welakamike” means “pretty place” or “good land” in the Lenape language, a heritage which the park creators aimed to honor.

    “The park celebrates the Delaware Tribe (of the Lenape) as the original, indigenous inhabitants of the Collegeville area,” Collegeville borough council president Catherine Kernen told Patch.

    After purchasing the roughly block-long swath of damaged homes and land, Collegeville worked with the the Perkiomen Watershed Conservancy to reseed the area and restore the boat launch.

    While the final bits of construction on the park are still being hammered out, there is a 15-space parking lot and a trail connection along the creek that was built by the Lower Providence Regional Sewer Authority.

    A special grand opening celebration will be held on Saturday at noon, featuring guest speakers like Montgomery County Commissioner Jamila Winder, State Rep. Joe Webster, State Sen. Tracy Pennycuick, and Delaware Tribe of Indians Cultural Education Director Jeremy Johnson.

    In addition to the borough, the Delaware Tribe, and Perkiomen Watershed, Kernen said that Ursinus College, the PA Fish and Boat Commission, Schuylkill Highlands Conservation Landscape Initiative, Duck Inn Owner Mark Marino, Perkiomen Valley School District, and Collegeville Fire Company all assisted in helping…
