Yeah….I find the ignorance to be both ironic and weird. 

Like, in another thread they tried to claim “Americans” excessively use spices to cover up sub par ingredients. 

I’m not familiar with a stereotype of Americans “overly” spicing food. It seemed borderline racially charged, the way they were speaking about it. 

Their hatred for mixing of people and culture is glaringly obvious and I find it hilarious when people claim it’s not racist. Sure it’s not. LOL. 

I’ll say a hot take. It’s just my opinion. 

The European hatred of Americans is largely rooted in elitism and borderline racism, and it’s largely fueled by the fact that America is a highly visible, relatively successful in a lot of ways, multicultural nation and they get visibly upset by that.

Like, “how dare the inferior impure culture accomplish anything” type of thing.Watertown is preparing its defense in case of an attack from the Emerald Ash Borer. That’s the beetle known to destroy ash trees throughout the country.
It’s been spotted in neighboring areas like Oswego and St. Lawrence counties. Some municipalities in St. Lawrence County have already cut down older ash trees as a way to prevent the Emerald Ash Borer from causing noticeable damage.
Meanwhile, the Watertown Daily Times reports Watertown officials are developing a program to better deal with the beetle. There are reportedly 320 ash trees in the city, many of which are considered to be in good shape and will likely be protected. The beetle could be in Watertown within the next decade as it continues to invade areas nationwide.

ALBANY, N.Y. (WWTI) - New York has been awarded a $40.2 million federal grant to coordinate and strengthen the State's early childhood system, Governor Cuomo announced on Friday.

ALBANY, N.Y. (WWTI) - Governor Cuomo made his position clear regarding the Trump administration's demand to turn over the DMV database for ICE and Customs and Border Protection.
"In response to the acting ICE director's statements, I want to again make my position clear: I have said from Day 1 we will never allow the DMV database to be used for immigration purposes. The Trump administration has been increasing their threats to hold New Yorkers hostage to their demand to turn over the DMV database for ICE and Customs and Border Protection to use to aid their deportation of innocent law abiding undocumented families," Cuomo said.
Research shows that mentoring can help ensure the academic and professional success of students and protégés. Mentorship is especially crucial now as employers recognize the need to engage and retain millennials. Every year, IIDA pairs thousands of students and mentors for a day of job shadowing through the annual IIDA Student Mentoring Program. Networking opportunities and career insights are expected, but bridging the gap between generations has become an added and significant benefit of the program. After last year’s Student Mentoring Program, we caught up with three students to get their take on how the program impacted them and what lessons they’ll be taking as they embark on their professional design careers.
Mentoring Motivated Me to Build My Professional Network
Student: Krista Neerdaels, interior architecture student, University of Wisconsin-Madison
Mentor: Jamie Carley, Flad Architects, Madison, Wisconsin
There were three of us who attended the mentoring day together. [Our mentor Jamie] spent time showing us the types of projects she was working on, walked us through the programs they use, and gave us insight on what a typical day is like for her. We then went out for lunch, and afterwards she set up a few meetings with people who work in different departments at Flad. Later, we discussed specifics on how to move into the professional world—advice on resumes, interview etiquette, and portfolios.
An important aspect about Flad that I appreciated was that the designers, architects, and engineers all work in the same space, so all departments are involved when a project begins. I believe it is very important to have integration of design and architecture as soon as possible for the benefit of the final product. The mentorship experience also motivated me to continue building my professional network to gain even more confidence about my future. It was an inspiring day that encouraged me to find a company that is the perfect fit for me.
Mentoring Intensified My Passion for Design
Student: Heba Toulan Pennington, interior design student, Houston Community College
Mentor: Catrina Wyrick, Abel Design Group, Houston, Texas
I signed up for the [Student Mentoring Program] to gather a full understanding of how interior design/architecture functions on a daily basis. My mentor and I spent time discussing what a typical work day is. Then, we went to a construction site to see how the contractor works with the architect. My favorite part of the day was the session where we covered building codes in elevations and plans.
The program intensified my passion for design. I came away inspired and intrigued by the process of designing.
Mentoring Solidified My Career Path as a Designer
Student: Jonathan Butler-Knutson, interior design student, University of Minnesota
Mentor: Maren Idso, NELSON Upper Midwest, Minneapolis, Minnesota
My favorite part of the [Student Mentoring Program] was being able to see what it is like to visit a site and let the space help inform design solutions. After receiving a quick overview of her project work, Maren and I, along with her coworker Matt, walked to Gaviidae, a five-story geometric art deco style structure that is part of the Minneapolis downtown skyways system. Upon arrival, we noted that there was very little foot traffic on the first floor. The second floor, bustling with traffic, drew its occupants from the skyway system to the retail and restaurants that are present in the space. There was a complete
