A resident of Memphis is referred to as a Memphian, and the Memphis region is known, particularly to media outlets, as Memphis and the Mid-South. 

Occupying a substantial bluff rising from the Mississippi River, the site of Memphis has been a natural location for human settlement by varying cultures over thousands of years. The area was known to be settled in the first millennium AD. by people of the Mississippian Culture, who had a network of communities throughout the Mississippi River Valley and its tributaries and built earthwork ceremonial and burial mounds. The historic Chickasaw Indian tribe, believed to be their descendants, later occupied the site. French explorers led by René-Robert Cavelier, Sieur de La Salle and Spanish explorer Hernando de Soto encountered the Chickasaw tribe in that area, in the 16th century.

question: Hannah and her friend Mary were bored. They sat around the house and tried to think about what to do. They petted the cat. They drew pictures in Hannah's notebook. They snuck into Hannah's mother's closet to try on her shoes, but Hannah's mother caught them. She said, "You girls need something to do. Let's take a walk to the park!" Hannah and Mary looked at each other, and then jumped up and down happily. "The park sounds great!" said Hannah. "Let's go!" cried Mary. So Hannah's mother packed up a snack of apples and cookies, and they all set off to walk to the park. They walked down the sidewalk, looking at all the interesting things along the way. Mary spotted a squirrel. Hannah saw a yellow bird. Hannah's mother pointed out the pretty yellow flowers growing in front of Mr. Smith's house. When they got to the park, Hannah's mother spread out a picnic blanket and the snack. Hannah and Mary ran around chasing butterflies for a little time, and then sat down to eat their snacks.

question: (CNN) -- Scotland's first minister Alex Salmond has warned American billionaire Donald Trump against interfering in government matters ahead of his controversial golf course opening 

The Trump International Golf Links, which the tycoon hopes will become the world's best course, is due to open in Aberdeenshire on July 10, but plans for an adjoining hotel have been shelved due to a row over the development of a nearby offshore wind farm. 

Trump claims he was misled by Salmond over the American's $1 billion project and has threatened to sue the Scottish government if the wind farm development is not abandoned. 

But Salmond, who has welcomed the golf course's construction, told Trump not to interfere in Scotland's energy policy. 

Who will golf's run of new major winners 

"Donald Trump is building a fantastic golf course in Scotland that I very much support and I've been a great supporter of it," Salmond told CNN at the TED Global conference in the Scottish capital of Edinburgh. 

"Unfortunately, recently, he has tried to tell the Scottish Government how to run our energy policy. 

"So, I suppose the message I have to say is, yes to great golf courses, we have the greatest golf courses in the world in Scotland and one more won't do any harm, but let the democratically elected government of Scotland decide its own energy policy." 

In April, Trump appeared in the Scottish parliament to express his opposition to the North Sea wind farm. 

Salmond has questioned the strategy of Trump, who will open his new course with a ceremony including local golf stars such as Colin Montgomerie and Paul Lawrie, to potentially pursue legal action against the Scottish government.
