Great Barrington — Alliance for a Viable Future (AVF) and the Mahaiwe Performing Arts Center will present the second annual “Honoring Native America” event on Friday, October 6, to kick off Indigenous Peoples’ Day weekend in the Berkshires. Friday’s program consists of flute music performed by R. Carlos Nakai; stories from Mohican storyteller Shawn Stevens; and a talk by lawyer and peacemaker Cheryl Fairbanks, Esq. Executive Director of Alliance for a Viable Future Lev Natan will deliver opening remarks. The Mahaiwe describes the event as going “beyond performance into the interactive realm of ceremony and collective prayer.”

Born in 1946, R. Carlos Nakai is a Navajo and Ute flutist. He initially played brass instruments but switched to the Native American cedar flute due to an injury. Self-taught, Nakai released “Changes” in 1983 and signed with Canyon Records, producing over 37 discs for that label. His music blends traditional Native American melodies with original compositions. Nakai has collaborated with such musicians as composer Philip Glass, flutist Paul Horn, guitarist/luthier William Eaton, composer James DeMars, two-time-Grammy-winning producer Billy Williams, and a very long list of others. Nakai has received 11 Grammy nominations.

Although an ordained minister of the Universal Church of Light, Shawn Stevens does not answer to “shaman” or “medicine man.” Instead, he calls himself a helper. He is also a drummer, dancer, singer, flutist, historian, and especially a storyteller. Shawn is a member of the Stockbridge-Munsee Band of Mohicans, but his…

LOUDONVILLE — I finished a race on Sept. 9, and, for a brief moment, experienced the elation of being in the lead. Happiness, however, is fleeting — especially when your legs and body cannot physically keep up. 

I can see how being in the lead of a race is motivating, though. The urge to maintain the lead is strong. But urgency cannot be the only force at work. Preparation through training is what sets apart the podium finishers with the mere finishers.

Anyway. 

It was the Mohican Triathlon, organized by Ryan O’Dell’s Ohio Mountain Bike Championship series. It’s a reintroduction of sorts to the early days when triathlons were popular around here. Back when Shannon Kurek put on races at Pleasant Hill Lake and people doing the swimming portion had to be rescued. Oh, the good ole days. Back when race directors didn’t have to worry about their snowflake participants filing lawsuits or — worse! — leaving a bad review. 

The Mohican Triathlon, with its kayaking, mountain biking and running, shouldn’t be called a triathlon. That’s at least coming from a friend, who, albeit, didn’t know the first-ever recorded triathlon in Paris involved canoes. (And, really, the name is adequate.)

It is, I concede, an odd event. At least around here. Elsewhere, a quick Google search revealed, these types of events are common. There’s the Lost Loon Triathlon in Tennessee, Morgan’s Little Miami Triathlon, the Chippewa Triathlon in Minnesota, the West Penn Trail Triathlon … the list goes on. 

But the event’s strangeness, and, thus, appeal, isn’t its novelty. It’s the distances. Six miles of kayaking; 5.6 miles of mountain biking; 6.6 miles of trail running. As a mountain biker, my initial thought was “hm. Interesting. The least amount of miles is during the cycling portion of the race.” 

Nearly all other triathlons feature…

News of Luckin’s new baijiu-infused coffee beverage spread around the world like wildfire last week, and it did not take long until the inevitable happened; a driver caught over the influence claiming the drink was responsible. But it happened in our very own Nanjing.

Luckin Coffee launched its new drink on 4 September, through a cooperation with Kweichow Moutai in which the baijiu producer hopes to bring in a new, younger generation of drinkers.

And drivers, it would perhaps seem, as Nanjing Daily reported this morning, 14 September.

It was at approximately 23:00 on 8 September when Nanjing Traffic Police inspected a car registered to the city of Dongguan in Guangdong Province. That was at the Heye Shan Service Area on the G4221 Shanghai–Wuhan Expressway as it makes its way through Nanjing’s Lishui District.

The driver, surnamed Xu, was found to have a blood-alcohol content of 21mg/100ml, sufficient to reach the standard for driving under the influence.

Yet, Xu coloured the issue by saying he had been drinking Luckin’s new baijiu coffee and that it was responsible for his high blood-alcohol content.

Later however, Xu admitted that he had also drank two glasses of draft beer in Changshu of Suzhou City at around 14:00 that day. He explained that he had heard from his friends he would nevertheless be safe to drive in in 4 hours, so he waited until the evening to drive back.

In the end, Xu will face a fine of ¥1,000 for driving a non-commercial motor vehicle after drinking alcohol, his driver’s license will be deducted 12 points and he shall be suspended from driving for 6 months.

The Luckin latte’s alcohol content is in fact less than 0.5 percent. Our inebriated driver would have had to drink so much of the stuff to be over the driving limit that he would…
