Josiane da Silva Tito (born August 8, 1979, in Rio de Janeiro) is a Brazilian sprinter and middle-distance runner.

Career
She set a personal best time of 2:01.28 for the 800 metres at the 2007 Pan American Games, coincidentally in her home city. Tito also competed as part of the women's national sprint team for the 4 × 400 m relay at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens.

At the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, Tito competed for the second time in women's 4 × 400 m relay, along with her teammates Lucimar Teodoro, Maria Laura Almirão, and Emmily Pinheiro. She ran on the second leg of the second heat, with an individual-split time of 52.60 seconds. Tito and her team finished the relay in sixth place for a total time of 3:30.10, failing to advance into the final.

Few days before the 2009 IAAF World Championships in Berlin, Tito was among the five Brazilian athletes who failed the competition drug test for a banned substance recombinant EPO. She served a two-year suspension by IAAF, making her ineligible to compete for other international events, including the world and national championships.

Venture Café is a nonprofit organization that hosts community events and programs that support early-stage entrepreneurs.

As of May 2020, there are 11 independently managed Venture Cafés, located in Boston, St. Louis, Missouri; Miami; Winston-Salem, North Carolina; Providence, Rhode Island; Tokyo, Japan; Rotterdam, The Netherlands; Warsaw, Poland; Bilbao, Spain; and Sydney, Australia. As of 2019, there were plans to open Venture Cafés in some 40 more cities.

The flagship event of Venture Café is the Thursday Gathering, a weekly meeting for new and experienced entrepreneurs to exchange ideas and support. The event usually includes several free educational sessions to teach entrepreneurs to how to start and run a business. Participants can also hold informal discussions of creative and speculative ideas and look for collaborators, co-founders, mentors, or investors.

History 

The Venture Café was conceived as a restaurant in the Cambridge Innovation Center in Boston, Massachusetts. The idea failed to attract investment, so the founders changed it to a gathering space for the entrepreneurial community, based on the book Venture Café by Teresa Esser. Venture Café Kendall launched in 2009.

In 2014, Venture Café expanded to the Cortex Innovation Community in St. Louis, Missouri, to bring together the emerging startup community. The success of the St. Louis location prompted the launch of Venture Cafés in other cities and ultimately the creation of Venture Café Global Institute, a public benefit corporation based in St. Louis and Boston.

In 2018, as part of St. Louis Cortex District's new 4220 Duncan building anchored by Microsoft, Venture Cafe launched Innovation Hall in St. Louis based upon Boston's District Hall.  

In 2018, St. Louis launched EdHub to support and bring together innovators to increase youth access to education. EdHub STL is inspired by the Forward Through Ferguson report, which calls for an innovation education hub to address the region's most entrenched educational issues.

Venture Café Foundation in Boston runs the Roxbury Innovation Center. Like EdHub, it brings together innovators in education including students, parents, administration, and teachers to help solve inequities in education and introduce youth to entrepreneurship and STEAM activities.

In September 2021, Venture Café St. Louis cancelled its events and made no public statements.

On September 13, 2021, Venture Café St. Louis board chair Whitney Masching released a statement stating, "Seven years later, it is time to close this chapter. Effective immediately, the VCSTL programming you know is on pause — but this isn’t the end."

Mpiji River (Mto Mpiji in Swahili) is located in the north east of Pwani Region and western Dar es Salaam Region of Tanzania. It begins in Masaki ward in Kisarawe District and eventually drains into Zanzibar Channel at the border of Mbweni ward of Kinondoni MC of Dar es Salaam and Kerege ward of Bagamoyo District of Pwani Region.

Threats
In Dar es Salaam, the rivers and streams that empty into the Indian Ocean are becoming more and more filthy, according to a news report from 2021. The Mpiji and Msimbazi rivers, as well as the Mzinga and Kizinga streams, have all been contaminated by human and industrial waste. People who live nearby have destroyed natural water alignment and converted nearby streams and rivers into trash dumps. Rivers in Dar es Salaam are poorly protected, and human activity is disrupting their natural alignments.

The geoglyphs of Chug-Chug are a series of ancient geoglyphs located in the Atacama Desert in northern Chile,  northeast of María Elena. The area includes 23 archaeological sites, preserving nearly 500 geoglyphs distributed along old caravan routes between the oasis of Calama and Quillagua, the base of an extinct pre-Hispanic town.

The oldest of the geoglyphs date back to 1000 BC, while most originated between 900 and 1550 AD, supposedly by the Atacama and Tarapacá tribes that inhabited the surrounding areas. Similar to the Nazca Lines, the geoglyphs of Chug-Chug include human figures, zoomorphic designs of animals such as birds and llamas and geometric figures like circles and rhombuses. The latter were probably used as signs for llama herders and traders to guide the caravans across the several trails.

The site and its geoglyphs prove the existence of communication between the lagoon areas and the Pacific Coast, showcasing a variety of representation of men on rafts and harpooning fishes.
