⚠️PLEASE SHARE: Remember these important safety tips if you plan to use a generator due to power outages caused by #Milton

⚠️Operation: DO NOT operate portable generators DURING a storm. Portable generators should be used outdoors only. Running an uncovered generator in the rain poses a threat of electrocution.

⚠️ Approved Containers: Store fuel only in approved containers. Safety first!

⚠️ No-Fuel While On: Never refuel your generator while it's running. Turn it off and let it cool down before adding fuel.

⚠️Cord Control: Use appropriate cords to connect appliances. Make sure they're rated for generator use and in good condition.

⚠️ Keep Crews Safe: When crews are working nearby, turn off your generator. The electrical load on the power lines can be hazardous for crews making repairs.

Please help us SHARE these life-saving tips to ensure we're staying safe and helping our communities weather the storm. #StormSafe #Milton

[Archaeo - Histories @archeohistories]

Lacrosse, America's oldest team sport, dates to 1100 CE, when it was played by Haudenosaunee or Iroquois people, in what now is New York and areas in Canada bordering the state. The early versions of lacrosse matches played by Native American nations included 100 to 1,000 men or more using wooden sticks, sometimes with net baskets or pockets attached and small, deer hide-wrapped balls. Deer sinew formed nets. Borderless fields could span miles, and games could last days.

“Lacrosse was an integral part of Native Americans’ culture,” says Joe Finn, archivist at the National Lacrosse Hall of Fame and Museum. “It was played to prepare them for war, and it was also a social event where tribes would get together for trade and sport. It was sometimes used to settle disputes."

Native American oral traditions cite the first lacrosse game played between birds and mammals. Some Native Americans believe the sport was a gift from the Creator to be used for enjoyment and as medicine. Onondaga Nation member Neal Powless, a former professional player for the Iroquois Nationals lacrosse team and a three-time collegiate All-American, says the sport is part of Haudenosaunee creation story.

Powless points to one “rematriation” origin version in which a young woman and a chief, living in the Sky World, or a multiverse space, must marry to save their universe from destruction. But her attention is drawn to a lacrosse player who later dives through a hole torn in the multiverse to save her, and they mate before she lands on Earth.

"Lacrosse is part of that story of our creation, of our identity, of who we are," Powless says. "So, when we play the game, we always say that there’s a simultaneous game going on in Sky World and our ancestors are playing with us."

In 1600s in Quebec, French missionaries first witnessed Native Americans playing the game, according to Finn. "It was given the name ‘lacrosse’ because the missionaries thought that the sticks resembled the bishop’s cross carried during religious ceremonies," he says.

Early Native Americans played the game barefoot, with no equipment and a loose set of rules. European settlers established more stringent rules for the sport. Lacrosse evolved in Canada, where it was named the national sport in 1859. In 1867, George Beers, a Montreal dentist, wrote the sport’s first rulebook. "He once took a team of white and First Nation lacrosse players to England and played before Queen Victoria," Finn says.

"The game ... very pretty to watch,” the queen wrote in in her diary following the match between Iroquois and Canadians, according to the National Lacrosse Museum and Hall of Fame. “It is played with a ball and there is much running."

Ceremonial medicine games are still played in Haudenosaunee communities to heal the sick, according to Powless. The Onodaga play an annual spring game with male participants of all ages. “Players will show up with no pads, no equipment, just your wood stick,” he says, adding that teams are determined by clan, house or age. “And the ages are whoever can walk. You’re going to have 7-year-old kids running around with 80-year-old men on the same field.”

Each community has its own rules and variations, he adds, and games often are played without a timekeeper, penalties or referees. “Lacrosse isn’t just a game, it’s a medicine, it heals,” Powless says. “You hear it time and time again how the spirit of the sport itself has healed people because they believe that it’s medicine that speaks to the spirit and the soul."

With data center electricity consumption predicted to triple from 2.5% of the US total in 2022 to 7.5% by 2030, the demand for sustainable and customizable solutions has never been clearer.

In a recent @business interview, @AndresGluski, President and CEO at #AES, talked about the growing demand: "We're seeing a great expansion of demand for renewable energy to data centers…and in many cases we are shaping that energy for what the data center needs – around the clock renewables."
