Was Venice's iconic Winged Lion statue made in China?

Isotope analysis indicates this symbol of Venetian statehood was made from a modified Tang Dynasty tomb guardian, a reminder of the impressive connectedness of the medieval world.

Venetian sailors looting Constantinople in 1204 "Look, one day you'll thank us for making you part of the impressive connectedness of the medieval world..."

The inter-connectedness of all things in the modern world. This though is the realistic conversation the UK needs to have but probably won't on current trajectory (to be fair the EU is also struggling with the question on a bigger level with regard to China).

MCAS results steady; district leaders say writing and middle‑school connectedness gaps need focused work
District presenters told the committee that overall MCAS proficiency held steady (grades 3–8 ELA about 65%; math about 69%; grade 10 ELA 75%, math 77%) but writing is the lowest‑scoring domain and middle‑school Black students reported lower connectedness; the administration emphasized MTSS and common assessments to close gaps.

I really like how character creation works in this game. It's collaborative and creative, and it enforces connectedness. It's helped us craft a party where we all have little secrets from each other, and revealing them in asides has been its own little questline for each of us to follow.

A fall full of events!

We love seeing so many schools and school communities organizing events to encourage health, well-being, and school belonging and connectedness.

I think this is connected to @stephenkb.bsky.social's "aging democracy" point in that the demographic shift and increased connectedness of modern life a) means parents are up close with their children into the children's 30s and 40s and b) therefore increases a sense of parental ownership

Spot on. Europe has to adapt to a new world economy, in which inter-connectedness and the rise of China, coupled with the declining importance of the single market, create new fundamentals.

Instead we see panic and paranoia.
Yes, Europe faces a massive "China shock" -- since 2022 -- which requires temporary protection. But underlying this is a deeper problem: China's long-term technology catch-up, compounded by its size. This cannot be addressed with protection. It requires a deep industrial transformation in Europe.

You’d be 100% correct. Books are the easiest way to introduce someone to a lived experience and perspective other than their own. They plant the seed for empathy, compassion, and connectedness. This is one of the primary reasons they are so adamant about banning books.

Lots of talent, not a lot of connectedness on either side of the floor just yet

11/13 📗 School connectedness results were inconclusive. The parenting association may reflect evocative rGE (e.g., PGS-linked behaviors evoking less supportive parenting). The peer association may partly reflect family-level factors (e.g., socioeconomic or parental traits).

6/13 📘 Delinquent-peer affiliation stood out: it partially mediated PGS effects in every trajectory contrast. Mediation by supportive parenting and school connectedness was also observed.

In summary, genetic associations may partly operate via psychosocial environments.

Being outside has such a unifying effect on me. It’s like being inside cuts me off from the connectedness of everything. Being outside, the strings that tie everything together start to become evident again. It’s like breathing in unison with the earth.

Self-perceived social position and support were found to lower the impact of racial discrimination on depressive symptoms and so may be important targets of intervention. In contrast, school connectedness and neighborhood collective efficacy did not have strong associations.

In Add Health, we used substance-use and antisocial-behavior trajectories (ages 13–41) identified by Sasia et al. (2025). Parenting, delinquent peers, and school and neighborhood connectedness were tested as moderators and mediators of an externalizing PGS.
