is round up so this hour, but coming away now. perfect timing, considering it is with prox christmas document treat, takes a look at a group of russian. old belief is what to tom and keep that believe i'm traditions that live in alaska the time learn in layman's or sometimes i'll say, learning nikolai, which lehman i am right now in anchorage where i live anchorage, alaska, and just happy to share a little bit of about my here in 1798, you've seen rush through julia who was a russian ship builder. married a and a looted woman, alaskan native woman from a fog, the heck,

which is near code here. and they had 4 children. one of the daughters stayed in alaska and married to dougherty plus the cuff, they moved from kodiak and $1847.00 to be part of the establishment family for the village of nel check a small community in alaska that still exists and that it was set up initially, as a retirement community for those who had served in the russian american colony and served their time probably about 20 years. and they were looking for a place where they can raise their families and have cattle in a catch fish. and what is interesting, my father is born in 1917. his 1st language is dominant language and the language that still you could tell was since the language stevens, late in life, after he had spoken english for all those years,

his 1st language and done that language was russian. the . do you remember any major little points which your mom goal during the russians could go to bed? so it just says no effect a when you are 60 now off for cents, which is a boy yet. but to ask that you're going to have some so knows what it does by the time it is uh, filled out the rest of it for the email. so you have a 100 years old. i don't know how i got there, but i do see those the form now little intel is they do now, is it something they can i put in?

so i like everybody knew each other in the building, everybody's full price and i learned russian language the way before i. i didn't speak english until i went to 1st grade. and when we spoke russian on the church, we used to have and they were handled on each other. and when the teachers heard that we were speaking english and they would wash a mile from it. so it does have to and i thought i remember having my last sunday over 4 that's and that's what they did. so i always have a change the school question. i would never, as mentioned anyone at that time and it was until years later that i became proud that i was think of the russian language. my name is uh,

greg. uh, greg. i got a gaudy my origin doctors name. i'm a born and raised here and you know, trick this graveyard has many and many of them, you know, some people from way back when a lot of our families, lot of even to the russian area and in your marriage is always just want to mention some of my family is very unfortunate is family comes and goes, but uh yeah i had cross is built the older style orthodox cross. my brother eric there is larry a scroll cause is actually a brother of mine to skulk of. that's a name from the original russian men that settled here. that was my original family . i meant to ask you, but i my real name is the scope of we're very proud of our ancestry. we don't uh read or deny or is history. we don't, and i are russian blood. i'm a leader of native corporation and the tribe. and so i have indian blood in me. i

know that i got from both sides and for very proud of our heart of the edge in our history. very rich history grew up knowing river russian, we have russian in her blood. well, there are some typical things because when we joe, we laughed until stories advisory laugh. and we like to tell the stories and trips and tricksters. and so we do have some of that and i'm sure it as pressed down from from the russian age on down to today. special ed or say you are the most. i'm so much of horsed, a good deal to explain it to those who didn't understand both languages that you're the boss on the dogs that i want that as you know, there's a, a door to door salesman who is going around the village here in the notes deck and he goes up to one of the houses and knock some of the door. and the housewife comes

out with a broom. it says step wise to but and he says, oh, still pi apple pie any kind of fire? she goes stupid, stupid. and my father told me when you leave him is here to see was almost 93 when he died, but probably is high eighties. he was talking about one of his cousins from then it'll take one of his best friends when he was growing up and is a young man who went on to become very successful in business and sold his business later in life and, and was obviously what we would call him a multi 1000000 and it was as well. and my father was a hard working fisherman of his life and as well, you know, he, he was able to support his family do well. if he didn't have the same type of financial wealth to him. but he told me this, he said,

may be rich. but he says, i'm rich to i'm richard, family. and. and that really has an impact on media and. and so, you know, he left his life for some left behind some resources, but the reality was what he left behind. this is what you saw today. we see generationally young children that are making a difference in our world and the, and my, my father and mother really were rich like richard found the just my grand kids go to the grandchildren garden. he was my rock and my brother isaac's rock and my cousin,

naomi's rock. a brother ju, those rocks. grandma and grandpa wrote our names on these rocks. so as far as i know, my grandpa and lauren and built this cabin red one. and then my grandpa and grandma this was their cabin, is the cabin knock, knock anybody hold the vanya of that? yeah, that's my bubble sca and yeah, just uh, the address goes. gotcha. so, uh, is this mr. kevin is kind of like our data. we have we, it's our summer getaways to get out of the city. so we normally now live in

anchorage and you know, who is living here is it, it's rather exhilarating and it's, it's fun. we spend more time together as family here, and we have 5 grandchildren staying with us for several weeks. then we have 3 more coming in tomorrow. is there actually coughing there? good trip, some time. well, that's yes, yes, vanya here is, you know, i had one before with an old barrel stove, little old one. and then i built this big, fancy new one, but we love gardeners, monitors or distribution for russia. they come over for russian, hoping that there was a tradition, everyone in the village. they had no running water, they had testing every day. every week they took vanya and once or twice

a week certain days. and so they looked bonner's and my mom and my uncle, and my mike in the village. they always had vanya things seen. and in here i insulated in those made old fashioned way, should where you see how it cuts this corner, kind of rush in design and there. but inside here in the hospital where you're coming off here, only some homes for high. so it just gets for cancer. to disease which flush on these rocks, this little stove, you stroke it up or there's like mad it does good, but it was good for the bones and it keeps me young. as the most expensive bunch of new nozik is the best. uh there is no one got bon, you're likely the

use of you to choose? yes, it is an active choice individual, very up to the app. i'm a father, arch priest, thomas, teaching of andrew. and this is the transfiguration of our lord jesus christ or selection. sarah sarasota, actually we have people from all over the world, our all over the united states and canada. just just small over whenever your opinions here that come through here all the time. and this church is the, the most photographed the church on the road system in alaska where you know, this was built in the late 1897, the 1st choosing 19 o. 120, the largest things. wow. yeah, hold great,

very high. okay. thank of the go on to take a lot to go show you where you're going, but here it is because it's pretty narrow there. you're just kind of pulling up the whole steps. this is all hand built stuff. pretty cool. this is all log construction and it was all hand made and they're getting dry rod from the inside out. and, and of course the roof needs replacing and that needs redone and, and the probably end up having to have fire suppression, a few other things to preserve the icons and everything else in there. but it's a big project, probably anywhere from half a 1000000 to a $1000000.00. probably just, even though it's a little sample, it's very hard to raise the kind of funds you have. you've got to have big donors. and one thing that we found is, is you know, at some point they were opposed to making it commercial and tourism. and so we were cause it was inactive parish and especially some of the older generation didn't want to make it even historic. they wanted to, you know, preserve it and not,

not take donation. so much like that. but, but now we've changed, you know, we'd like to share our face and share it with others and, and, and bring people in to be able to see it. and they loved to give good, good hearts. sure. for people and there's a lot of people leave, you know, even every penny counts and have a few dollars or 5 or 10, maybe a 20 a good lord willing in a few years that will be like no. and it will stay that way for the next 100 years plus. so and hopefully the parents will grow with brochures and members as we go forward. and people learn more about the orthodox space. the, the,

the russian states never as tight as one of the most sense community. best of all sun set up the same assistance to progress be the one else calls question about this, even though we will then in the european union,

the kremlin mission, the state on the russians cruising and split the ortiz phone, even our video agency, roughly all the band on youtube tv services. what question did you say from stephen twist, which is the interest in this because we're as st. jude. i know you weren't that explanation hearing was selling laska. we are in the south central portion of the stage of the building that we're in right now. it was built about 20142014 was our 1st service over the course of a company years. they built the church here, the

made the teammate is i grew up with friends in a very traditional and they call confessional, this ran family kind of parish. i was lutheran pastor for almost about 10 years and i accepted a position that i lived in parish currently or so. and 2002, we moved here and i well i guess arrogantly, i thought, well, i'm going to go to alaska and make them louis ring. and well blamed came to alaska . i believe it was saying herman of alaska that pointed as far as the orthodox church, we came in contact with the church. we met the people, we attend services and there was absolutely no question in my mind. or in our mind

we as a family, we encourage that orthodox who was our home and our whole life was preparing us to come into the orthodox church. and i did, did the development payable payable. and i last core municipal. and i personally that the payment of knowledge and religion, religion generally in right as if there's federal and i've kept the same kind of for us to intention if they want to go to a point of performing us know if i sound good, if, if and if we have to, if i'm going to want to know how much that explains the shop, this is this part of the placement. this progressively doesn't have which, which is part of the problem. good fungus control. so anything in it isn't changing on account longer for them,

which is totally fine. let me look. i don't see any when he gave me a guy from people around town on friday. and so this time yes, him even by safe penny for seniors manufacturing this pack up with them. definitely get as much molly, when trying to get to my rights and good as not that much. i'm doing. okay. i've come here this like a moving item. what keisha von investing left out for us to come from. oh, it's again was paying this bill as well. let me show you what's circulating a good one of our community and then when it came to zip all the time by changing the kids, i'm frustrated. me see any problems with this. can you pull it up? i think that's a try. me. yeah, we'll try it. to me ok crossing instead of your sense of what's going on with them and believing that the more thing if i have to take advantage of interest because i

don't think there's even if there's any interest later. so let's make sure that it's okay. and then if i can, like, i mean you get to deal with the service because it's because of the kicker fishing . and that's how side more instruction help us with which day hi, i presume to stay in town. i thought you meant all the said i what do you, i'm a little this way. so you know, i live in new york here. i made a winston point to which to all this same stuff the and then i just as why didn't come out and then you shut back on the golf with. so the sonya so the popular

that the width i'm a product from google. i don't see what other variables that question as like a name, and you just fill out the best card cuz i was only using, it's expensive with them as a right to that because really and so then the other method of the thoughts otherwise pretty more fam. i said, was that it tonight then? and i noticed it was a said yes myself going to lay such kindly by face which case present had no answer and about both that on the space i left, he had really bad feel about it. what i like about that can just of labor based in lubbock, and i'm param, scholarships, go really fast. now that that's good. i don't think what's going on. give me a buzz card. that's good. there's still space. private funding. there's no equipment, you know, that's different towards you know,

i put you on our quick here and there. so i only gladly drive it with us $2.50 of them. i did that. but the systems that i didn't know i didn't come with the engine to take it. i'm done. i give them that i'm time to so you don't know is there somebody if i don't know where to go? if somebody dropped jokes. okay. maybe searching in filling in the same video and sco sandboxing thing here, and it says name, then you can tie, it, pushes me as wondering if that all of the printer. so typically let's go can get into the site to look to get a feel for that stuff in the vehicle. yet, the, the,

in the earliest years of the russian america calling that the charge was to go and produce economic value primarily through for and so the, the russians, the higher the l. a huge than the low take people and, and engaged these people in getting for like from the sea otters and perhaps seals, c, lions and, and others like that because they recognize that back in, in moscow where the, the, the more elite people lived that there was a market for prefers, and that was important. so russians when they come from or us that they for us to beats with them and they were trade for beats. the very early lesson for traders could bring these beats over many beats,

so many beats. and they could make a lot of money trading beats for, for like i'm also said the native hunter wanted to get a gun to see if they wanted to trade for a gun. they would spend the gun on the rifle for a so call they'd have to match the height of the rifle with 1st. that was the trait. that's how they traded in those space. but today, in acreage, we have a winter carnival called anchorage for rendezvous. and, and we celebrate some of our traditions and one of the traditions is, is this for the tramping of, for the selling of it? there's actually a marketplace right here during, for ronda, who are we call it for? randi, we're firs are sold and so it's,

it's kind of part of our tradition is still in the fun part. and we have a winter carnival that is the largest winter carnival in north america. the . this is our brand of the winter fund, and we're out to center celebrating the last the winter, even though we'll have winter here for probably another 6 weeks. but we're celebrating the last part of winter and the hint of spring with blue sky and goods sun and the there's have been going on for i think this is the idiot here of the address for under quite connection with

the anchorage for rendezvous or at least some kind of special connection. last year i was selected to serve in the position of what's called lowered trapper. and so i was chosen probably because i had served in elected office in alaska. i served in our legislature but also is the lieutenant governor of alaska. and i've been engaged in quite a number of, of boards and come measures and other community service activities right here in anchorage dispos acreage for rendezvous. since i was child the biggest event and, and just still the biggest event today are the dog sled races. and were able to enjoy them. and once the once in a while, we would come to anchorage from the military. but more often i would listen to the

dog sled races on the radio and we'd hear about the today. we came out with 5 of our 8 grandchildren for the day of the night. i need wow, this is what's called a sprint. that means they're running as fast the whole way. the what's really interesting is sometimes the dogs are a, they're not group and dogs. you know, they, they're training out in the country if they're not used to be around people. so

they come to downtown acreage. there's all kinds of smells and things. and the dog is going to and they come in here and they hear people sharing. and they said it's, it's so difficult for them. so was it good measures? going to want to somehow get his dogs around people too. and so they're not social security is the, the,

in the 1870s, the colonial expansion of the british empire in the nile valley in greece, debris, it is decided to get complete control over sudan. however, the deeply religious people of that country did not want to obey 4 laws. the unceremonious intervention of british officials led to people's discontent. it spokesman was that the logins mohammed off thought the frog blamed himself the mahdi. the design began to gather an army against the invaders. by $1884.00, most of the sudanese cities were in the hands of the month. great britain decided to intervene directly. but the troops of ahmad gave the invaders a drubbing. in 1885. the rebels, the capital car to the feet of britain was totaled only by the very end of the 19th century. after the death of ahmad, the british were able to regain their control of sudan. unable to defeat the living
