This article is going to be a little different from many of my previous articles. As some of you have come to know, I am a member of the Federation of Aboriginal Nations of the Americas (FANA). Normally I write about what FANA has been doing or announcing ambassadorial roles or appointments of people to the different positions within the Federation.
Today I wish to share with you what one of the SandHill Band of Lenape and Cherokee Indians tribal members has been involved with for years.
Some of you are familiar with the appointment of Mazatzin (Maz) Casas Acosta as FANA’s ambassador to Mexico, Central, and South America, and AttaChé for Outreach and the Repatriation of Antiquities and Artifacts. Once again, some of you may be familiar with the Ambassador’s background. He is recognized as one of the leading authorities working with the Aztec Calendar, which you can find on his website: www.azteknology.com/clock. (Please click the 1st link below if you need to refresh your memory or are first timers to my articles.)
One of his goals has been to achieve global recognition of the Aztec Calendar, because as he puts it “this is not only a Mexican thing, neither an Aztec, of the Mayab or Indian thing…rather it is a Human Experience towards Personal Transcendence with Global Consequences”. After decades of study and travel, he had reached the conclusion that the Aztec calendar is the culmination of thousands of years of careful and respectful observation of nature and the cosmos by thousands of peoples across thousands of miles of our western hemisphere. He has developed his teachings to show that it can still be used today, as was intended.
Some of you may remember my article about FANA and the Garifuna Nation signing a cooperative agreement…

After a busy day Friday with four non-public state championships, we turn our focus to the public state finals. Stay tuned all day long as we bring you highlights from both the boys’ and girls’ Group 2 and Group 4 state championships!
After a wild few days headlined by controversies on the court and decisions made in courtrooms, the Panthers dominated on the big stage to win their 13th overall state championship. Camden (30-2) led Arts (24-9) wire to wire and controlled the game from the get-go. Emmanuel Joe-Samuel led all scorers with a game-high 23 points. This game came just a few days after the controversial ending to the Group 2 state semifinal – Manasquan defeated Camden on a last second buzzer-beating shot but the basket was overturned, thus awarding the Panthers the win and a trip to the final.
JSZ’s Jay Cook has the highlights:
The Warriors are back on top in Group 2 for the second time in three seasons after a dominant effort in the state final against the Dodgers. Bucknell commit Hope Masonius poured in a game-high 18 points to lead the Warriors to its ninth state championship in program history. UPenn commit Katie Collins went for six points, nine rebounds, and six blocks for Manasquan (26-5). Charlotte Tuhy finished with a team-high nine points for Madison (24-7).
JSZ’s James Mooney has the highlights and reaction:
Jersey Sports Zone’s coverage of Manasquan is made possible by Ramapo College.
Elizabeth defeated Lenape 57-41 for their second Group 4 State Championship since 2022. A quiet first half would see The Minutemen leading 19-11 at the break, but a wild third quarter would see Lenape go on…
Brooklyn hiking label Outlandish has partnered with Utah-based sporting gear brand Pingora to create the Hudson Valley Lucid 13 Pack: a hiking bag that serves to celebrate the Lenape Nation’s legacy as the first inhabitants and caretakers of the Lenapehoking.
The bag, equipped with an ergonomic harness, durable Nylon 210D ripstop and adjustable straps, features petroglyphs that were drawn by the Lenape on the ridge of the Delaware River, roughly 3,000 to 5,000 years ago. The carving is the largest Lenape petroglyph to be discovered, with illustrations of lizards, dragonflies, deer, bears, a man with a bow a crescent moon and a shaman.
“We’ve been here this whole time. We’re still here,” Que
Powell, a member of the Ramapo Lenape Nation who became a thoughtful collaborator on the project, said in a statement. “We’re mountain people, and sometimes known as an Afro Indigenous tribe, amongst other things.” The tribe is a subcategory of the Lenape, whose land previously sprawled from Albany, New York to the Raritan River North, New Jersey. Today, the Lenape encompass a seven-mile radius in the foothills of the Ramapos Mountains, on the border of New York and New Jersey.
“Respect for nature is the biggest element–how we watch nature as a way to be better ourselves,” Powell, who models the bag on a hike in the campaign, added. “For example, learning to flow like a river. Don’t try to go upstream. Go where it goes and make the best of where you land.”
Outlandish added, “The hope is that the product will play a small role in helping New Yorkers carry Lenape art, storytelling and heritage forward as we explore landscapes they originally cared for.”
The Hudson Valley Lucid 13 Pack will be available to purchase online via Outlandish in the coming days. All…
The streetwork being done on one of Topeka’s steepest hills is aimed at replacing failed concrete, not reducing its slope.
“Road closed” signs currently block motorists from using Baker’s Hill, located on S.E. 21st Street just east of S.E. Wittenberg Road.
Bettis Asphalt & Construction of Topeka is working under contract with the city to replace 275 feet of failed concrete on S.E. 21st, beginning about 140 feet east of Wittenberg, said Taylor Bugg, interim co-communications director for Topeka’s city government.
“We expect work to be complete by early April,” she said.
This photo was taken about two months ago looking eastward up Baker’s Hill, just east of S.E. 21st and Wittenberg Road.
S.E. 21st is the boundary between the city of Topeka and unincorporated Shawnee County in the area involved.
Members of the Topeka and Shawnee County News & Police Scanner Facebook group in December identified Baker’s Hill as one place drivers should avoid in particular when streets get slick. They shared that information in response to a query from The Capital-Journal.
Some know it as “Bigger’s Hill,” one group member said.

In his book, Michael Weilbacher offers nature lovers 25 field trips to parks, preserves and natural areas, all neatly organized by season.
Mike Weilbacher, a Merion Station resident, and author, has dedicated his life to finding creative ways to teach people about nature, writes the staff of Main Line Today.
Wild Philly is available on Amazon. Check the price. (As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.)
And now all his experience has culminated in his first book, Wild Philly: Explore the Amazing Nature in and Around Philadelphia.
Weilbacher is the executive director of the Schuylkill Center for Environmental Education in Roxborough and is known as the “All-Natural Science Guy” on WXPN-FM’s Kid’s Corner.
In his book, he offers nature lovers 25 field trips to parks, preserves, and natural areas, all neatly organized by season. He even added illustrated maps.
To provide the most in-depth and enriching information, Weilbacher created an eight-member “Naturalist Advisory Team” to advise his research process.
He explained that the extra insight added rich layers to the book.
He said, “The chapter on the Lenape, for example, was based on new scholarship that shows that they actively managed the land. They were burning parts of the landscape to keep certain plants, like nut trees, around…”
The book also has a chapter on how people can become citizen scientists simply by using their cell phones to contribute data to ongoing scientific studies.
