"mountain ridge" Discussed on Stuff You Should Know

"Okay, so the reason why this phenomenon is so isolated and also so reliable, it starts about after dusk and again, it lasts for about 9 hours. Is because of the geography of Lake maracaibo and where it is. Apparently it's right about at the mouth of the Caribbean. The Caribbean is very nearby. So there's a big steady supply of warm water that keeps the Lake warm. Okay? Right. That's part one. Yeah, and as we talked about in our wind episode, wind is created when warm air rises and cooler air flows in to kind of fill its spot and even things out. But one of the other consequences of warm air rising, especially warm air in the tropics that's impregnated with humid Caribbean air, yeah, human Caribbean air. As it floats up, it starts to come in contact with colder air that often contains colder ice particles. And when that warm water vapor and those cold ice particles collide, they actually generate static electricity, and it's on a minuscule minuscule level for each of these collisions, but if there's enough of them. And in this area, there's plenty. All of that stuff can create lightning, and it can create it in aces. That's right. And in the case of Lake maracaibo, what's going on is you have these sort of surrounded on three sides by these mountain ridges. So what that leaves is a really narrow little pathway to the gulf of Venezuela, where that Caribbean seawater is just constantly bringing in warm water through that little channel. And then you've got also you've got you're in the tropics there. So you've got the sun that's also pulling moisture from the Lake. And then you've got these winds. And I think they found there's this researcher. Munoz is very nice. Right? Yeah. And angel did a bunch of research on this basically trying to predict a coming up with a model to predict conditions that might lead to occurrence of lightning and not just here, but period. And then applying it here to see what the deal was. Yeah, because they used to suggest that it was uranium deposits or maybe methane deposits beneath the Lake that were somehow electrostatically charging the air above it. But I guess they've never found uranium or methane deposits to support that. And it's not even clear whether that could happen. So angel munoz said, I think I've got this figured out. He managed to trace and track the wind that's generated every night. And it's so reliable, it has its own name. He calls it the merica basin nocturnal low level jet. It needs to work on the name a little bit. Sure. It needs to be an acronym. Yeah, I was going to say it's not even the NBN. Yeah, not a foul in there. So because of the geography and the topography that wind comes in every night and it's funneled through that little narrow mouth that you were talking about. But as it pushes along inward landward, it eventually runs into those mountains that ring the Lake itself, right? And when that happens, it goes up and it's pushing all of that warm air right up into that colder air. And this wind, this jet picks up about the same time every day around dusk. So there's your wind right there, and then you've got the hot water, or the hot warm air that's full of water being pushed up into the colder air. Yeah, and it's kind of interesting. So you have this air that's sort of has a title motion going as well. So this error is flowing in and then receding again. And just the fact that it's happening at about the same time every day because of the way that everything just happened be laid out and sit in just the right way. To make this happen at the same time every day, well not every day, but what is it 200 to 300 days a year? 300 days a year. And there was a period in 2010 where it went 6 weeks without it, and that was a huge deal because it doesn't usually do that and they figured out those because of El Nino bringing very dry wind in. Yeah, and to be clear, these are storms. It's not like you just sit back and watch the light show and it's just like this warm summer heat lightning or something. Like oftentimes it's a company by really strong surface winds and I don't know what it's like to live there. I think about what about a quarter of the population of Venezuela lives sort of nearby? Yeah. It's a lot of people. Yeah, I mean, every single day, I guess they just count on these big, big storms coming in. Yeah, so they've got the lightning show, the catatumbo lightning 300 nights a year and the stormy about a 160 nights a year. That is a ton. So what's happening when it's not stormy, but you're getting the light. Oh, so I saw on the Atlas obscura video that sometimes it can be like a hundred kilometers in the sky. You can get that light show, but quiet. All right. So that's pretty cool too, huh? Yeah, those are the money nights to be there, I guess. For sure. Yeah, and I saw one other thing that I not only saw this here. It didn't realize it, but I had some bottom mine hof stuff going on because there's this website called futility closet that is just an amazing website. So I saw, I saw this fact in this article. And then last night, I was on futility closet, and I saw the same fact. So it has to, that means it's worth sharing, don't you think? Yeah, let's hear it. Venezuela supposedly, it was named by Amerigo Vespucci. Who named it Venezuela because when he got to the Lake maracaibo region, he saw people living in huts on stilts and it reminded him of people living in houses on stilts in Venice. So Venice apparently means little or Venezuela apparently means little Venice. That's amazing. I thought so too. I think it's so cool. What else you got? I got nothing else. Well, I'm glad we explained it. I love ones that are like, this is amazing, and here's exactly how it works. So thank you very much angel munoz. Thanks, that was obscure. NASA, science ABC, explorer web, and futility closet. I love it. Short stuff is out, everybody. Stuff you should know is a production of iHeartRadio.

"mountain ridge" Discussed on Your Daily Prayer

"A prayer for each new morning. By Tiffany turbot, read by Liam Martin. Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love. For I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go. For to you, I entrust my life. So I'm one 43 8. There's some mornings such as today, when I wake while it's still dark outside. I grab a cup of coffee and sit in a chair in front of an eastern facing window. Far up in the vast black sky, I can see the planet Venus. And several other surrounding constellations. I'm in awe once again of the intricacies of creation. I marvel at the placement of each planet and star in the galaxy. I'm humbled. When I remember what it says in psalm one 47 four about the stars. He determines the number of stars and calls them each by name. As I watched the sun, slowly rise over the mountain and stars begin to fade away from the light. I pray for this new day. I pray for the opportunities that will cross my path today. I pray for each family member. And I will be doing life with today. I pray for those in my family who live far away. I pray for our country and our leaders. I pray for those I know who are hurting. As I sit here in the early morning quiet, I'm reminded of several truths. There's never been a morning. Whether I see it or not, that the stars haven't always seemed to fade away. There's never been a morning that the sun has not risen in the eastern sky. Since the God of creation has never failed the earth in this. Then I don't have to wonder or worry if tomorrow morning the sun will once again rise. It will, because God determined it to do so. In each new day, it is an opportunity, for our faith to grow. If you woke up today, then it's because this very day, God has a plan a purpose for you being alive. He loves you with an unfailing love. Every single day. And even though life sometimes has a way of overwhelming us with its difficulties, in each new day can seem so hard. Look up to the heavens and be reminded that God is always at work in every part of your life. You can be trusted with your life, your dreams, and your heart. If you look to him for guidance for each new day, relationship and situation, he will help you. Just because it may be a cloudy or a stormy day and I can't see the stars in the night sky or the sun rising above the mountain ridge, it doesn't mean they aren't there. The sun and stars continue because God determined it to be so. So just because life is hard today and tomorrow and even the day after that it does not mean that God is not at work in your life or that he's stopped loving you. He says this to you in malachi three 6 for eye the lord do not change. You can be confident in his unfailing, never ending love for you. Just look up to the sky and be reminded. Those stars and planets and that sunrise or sunset are continual reminders that his love for you is unfailing. He has determined the planet's paths and they will not crash. He can show you the way to go. Each and every day of your life. He can most certainly be trusted with your life. His love for you is unfailing. Let's pray. Dear lord, each and every morning, as I begin to wake, I pray that the first thought of each new day would be of you and if you're unfailing love for me. I pray that you would give me wisdom for every single situation I'll be facing today. Show me what I should do and where I should go. I trust my life.

"Who played with you at my wedding he You've made one bogey on that day and he made par on that hole and he was just like grin. Yeah yeah not. A great golfer had beat. Pga tour player you want. He texted me is like everyone. I beat that guy on a whole now. Last two notes i had from the from shriner's roy sabatini went out in twenty eight today. Final round sixty four and Sad news Max sam burns and other top ten this week on your officially bumped from the number one position in the fedex cup so i don't know if you comment on that sorry bobby hunting on onto the cj. Saw your rory coming tweet. Today was a recognize. Some of your better work. I think what's an ideal fall schedule for the pga tour in your mind. Max and you can view this through your own lens or through the tour as a whole lens. What what do you think is ideal. I this idea that workshop idea not super well thought out. But i think that if you made the fall like a actual false series and it had its own little fedex cut bonus now obviously much smaller difference but it does not count to like twenty twenty twos. Fedex cut race. I think that would be something that should be explored in my opinion like a sprint. Like a sprint cup. Almost the fall percents because no big note. None of the top guys wanna play right now. I promise you i like. I've talked to him. I think i know a few of them are only gonna play one event this fall. Some of them are gonna play this fall and it's like i think it's still good to have tournaments now. People need to play. There's getting it's getting harder and harder for the rookies to get out here and get into events. So i think there should still be events but i just think that that would be a way to kind of help the like grand scheme of the fedex cup like the big one and then maybe i like you said a sprint. That that makes this equally as maybe equals exciting. By exciting in its own way But in an events that Aren't mandating like the dustin johnsons of the world that come out and play. I do want to thank you for listening to the podcast. Max i can tell you our listeners. A thank you for listener abroad idea break up. I told monaghan so. I don't know i don't know how i suggested to him so i did to the bmw cool. We're back to northern trust so we discuss ready. Wanna take us around to the lpga this week. All my gosh. I would love to guys. I was very excited for the founders cup presented by cognizant Was this weekend new new date on the calendar this year And i think it's gonna be a one time shift in the calendar date. They're going back to may next year And also a new course this your mountain ridge country club in new jersey fabulous top one hundred donald us course and jinyan co just kinda thing. I mean to to put it Simply i guess she world world class it was her tenth. Lpga victory Kind of never a doubt once once we hit the weekend she zing complete control finished eighteen under. I heard there were rumors that some mountain ridge members were quite unhappy with their opening round Sixty three you know. They didn't wanna see the course playing that easy But but just hats off to her. So i have some. I have some good jin-young costa for you guys if you'll allow me laos okay First cheese on a mega heater okay. Currently ranked number two in the in the rolex. Women's rankings behind nelli korda This was her second force. Her third win in six starts With her final round What she should today sixty eight was her fourteenth straight round in the sixties which ties the lpga record That ana caserne sorenstam had also holds. Max question for you. Do you know what your longest streak is for rounds in the sixties on the pga tour. I know it's not that many. I'm gonna go with like four. Maybe i don't know i. I wish i would've looked that up. It's not even close to that. So yeah gin cove you'll remember back in twenty nineteen she went. She broke tigers overall golf record of most consecutive holes without a bogey. His record was one hundred ten straight holes. She went to work teen straight holes without a bogey She's twenty six years old tenth lbj to her win She has twenty one worldwide win. So this is where it gets. Good though all right so inter. lbj career. She became a member twenty eighteen. She's played sixty seven. She said sixty seven starts. Do we know how many miscut she's had. I have the agenda. So i can't answer i've seen solving to puka top ends in in sixty seven so i it's just i think honestly nellie was one of the bigger. Lpga stores of this year and we're good reason breaking through in a major capturing her first major championship. I think some of the rookies that have come along patty tank. You kosovo i. It's it's one of the things. I think myself included you. Kind of forget how good young co is and i think this week we end and whole was a good example. Like when she's on it's like she's i think she's the best in the Does have a weakness But yeah it's it was a fantastic venue. A lot of the players thought it. It really felt like a an elevated event which is cool The founders cup honors the thirteen original. Lpga founders A coupla thing which is really fun. And i hope it goes back to mountain ridge. I think that would be an awesome annual venue. Max i compared it almost like eddie riv- rolls around each year on the men's side just because of just an awesome venue. That's that's felt this week with the with. The lpga founders cup being a mountain ridge so to to be determined there. I tried to ask around. But i don't think anybody knows for sure where the event will take place next year cheating. She's got that thing where she's she has no What he watch her like on sunday. It's almost it's almost boring because she doesn't do anything wrong so you know like oh she might with this one over the right. You just like all right well. We can all go to bed like she's going to win. There's there's no like phil mickelson about it right where it's like. Just catastrophe always lurking in the shadows catastrophe very seen. We got a little lewis. Hamilton max verstappen raised at the top here as we go towards the towards the end of the year. Here on the lpga..

"But that was not her forte. Walk that many miles. No she just. God blesses you just want to be part of the hike. Does she wanted to hike. The first one hundred miles in the last one hundred miles and it turned out to be the first fifty miles in the last fifty miles but my wife is you know i i would say she's athletic but she's not long distance hiker so she just wanted to be part of what. We called harms hype. That was the name of the hike. Now where exactly where i was going. So you decide to do her hike as a fundraiser for the alzheimer's association you wanna tell us how you manage manage to raise. Your goal was ten thousand dollars. You almost got there just over seven thousand good money yes forgot. Basically this was a grass roots movement. I had some local publicity. Unfortunately i couldn't go on or any national publicity events were promotion. I try my darnedest. That's the way things work out. But you know. I felt because i met some people on the trail on after the my hike that had done raises for Various i would say charities And diseases and they said they said paulie pretty good. They said you did real good. They said you were averaging like free dollars a mile like three. I think it broke down like three dollars and fifty five percents said. You should be proud of that fact. And i have to say that the fact that i was hiking for the alzheimer's association i had little cards at hand into people. It roy opened the door for me. A lot of people's lives in a lot of people stories on the trail so yeah it was a good thing all way around. It kept me motivated. You know in times of Despair when you're a mostly mentally physically drained exhausted because the trail becomes at first it's physical After a you're halfway through it it becomes a mental battle Every ev- all the miles. The the same after a while until you get to the white mountains and then you know you're in the mount because they say once you reach new england you done eighty percent of the trail but only twenty percent of work and i said well i thought maybe it's ninety percent of the trail only ten percent of the work because of one once you hit the white mountains do you get the macintosh. Was it was very difficult. Strenuous hard hiking but The rewards of being up on the mountain ridge lines or you know went ahead and vision from the store that was my himalayas. Mount washington was my mount everest and it was. It was a joy to hike in the white house. it didn't sound like it or read like a joy. It sounded extremely terrifying and difficult there.

At as a section biker take three months one section. Come back the next summer like three one. But you know since. I was hike and for the alzheimer's. And i got hurt in two thousand nine.

And the rams this leads timeliness comes in my mind. A little league world series. I can't wait to talk about this. Because there's certain events or competitions with children in this country that i've always thought were very bizarre and to the point of mostly it's the parents. I was myself with a softball complete lunatic. So here's a lot of events. Though in this country. I think damage children for life. I'm going to read you something. Let's start with a little league world series. It's going on right now. We hear about this weird kid in south dakota. Who's he's given up like one hit seven thousand innings of eastern south dakota state. I know his name's gavin. We're a state close to your heart. I know you're big south dakota guy. Yeah one hit in eight games hundred. Fourteen hundred use strike. So i'm going to read you. Something a friend of mine and yours wrote about the little league world series and they wanna get your comments on it here. We got blame. You blame me. Blame the rest of the rest of us for laurie. Fine twelve year olds whose greatest achievement by might be winning a genetic lottery and hitting puberty early for showering them with adulation watching in sufficient numbers at espn paid sixty million dollars for eight years on tv for the little league world series for clicking on newspapers turning into radio interviews attending pep rallies before tournaments for treating it less like literally world series than the real one all you sports are off the rails to certain degree would travel teams in academy programs. One hundred dollars out private lessons for kids. Do we really need to know who has the state's best under nine girls soccer team the little league world series is merely the extreme mixes apple pie americana and summer kind style with our two greatest obsessions kids and egos as remarked. Ziegler the san diego union giving your response in that. He is always said this about the literally word. Says he's not blame the kids but he thinks we we glorify them to where like i said this kid. This kid from south dakota. I hope he goes on. He's a major league pitcher us. But you know what there's like avenue where this is all is the highest is gonna get. Maybe that's fine with a lot of people. He's fine with you but the expectations now him are going to be saw -rageous that if he doesn't do anything. Rest like agra bum. You failed what happened you. Where do you put this lily world series. You watch it you care about it and when you listen to ziegler's words do you agree with any well first of all. I think we talked about this before but the little league world series is a a sensitive subject for me Just get past your own depression about making williamsport. We were a game away. You were the. We were agitating saying this. You know katie's going to do great things. Look at your sports. Read what happened. Yeah you league world series. But i wasn't the genetic lotto kit. I was the scratcher and clark getting my fighting my way to the top. How about the baseball hammered to death. That you head was too big to that too. Shy the giant have to. oh like. where's the helmets. I gotta go find those only what. How do we had on the whole on his right. Sure that sucked no. Listen i i get all of his points. I mean i guess i would disagree from the standpoint of You know some of these kids. It's the best thing they're going to ever accomplish into that. I would say yeah. That's right so why not celebrate the fact that they actually accomplished one thing in their life. Because when they're you know when some of these kids are you know forty three and they're you know working working the night shift at the bank or whatever they're going to do. I don't know nobody's going to be celebrating them. So if you have a plan your life or your exceptional at something why not celebrate it in. Why not appreciate it. I mean. I think there's part of it now. The the extent of all the money that they make off them on espn and all that like yeah it's commercialized and it's ugly and nasty just like everything else and i think there is a level of the parents being completely out of control and maybe you wish you fix that of like. Maybe the parents can't go or something. I dunno keep them out of it. How great would that be the kiosk in golden where you know. I thought mountain ridge. They're very nice. People had a cup balloons on that team. Do but austin gave was an incredible manager and he got it. He understood what it was about. I made good friends with that team. I still follow a lot. Those kids austin critics wanting to unlv. It was a great experience for them. But i don't know if it's a great experience for everyone of them. Let's let me ask you monet. Davis monet davis was the girl great athlete when she was at the little league world series. She wanted to play basketball at uconn. know what mony davis ended up doing. I think she played a sport in in in Maybe softball in in college. This was baseball. But there's another example of. I don't know people are saying this. I hope they're not like oh boy. What happened to monet day. She was this and this net. And i don't know people said that i would feel really bad. Had they done that though as she kinda gone through that stage of the leeward series. The non with her life or like daniel mata who was seventeen. It's like he was like okay was thirty five smoking crazy. I was in san diego when that nut. That kid was on that team. We were covering that guy was. He was having a horse smokes in the managers of the dugout. That was like forty bolivia. Somebody who pete twelve just like we're referring to the little league world series. we have. We definitely played against teams. Where i was like okay. You can't dropped her kids off at the babysitter and then come play against.

"mountain ridge" Discussed on The Takeaway

"As vice president of the friends of blair mountain and as a history professor at southern west virginia community and technical college professor katie. Thank you for having me. Melissa for those who are unfamiliar with the the battle of blair mountain. Can you tell us a more about what initiated it. The straw that broke the camel's back as they say came from the murder of sid hatfield. An ed chambers to local law enforcement officers in mingo county who had stood up for the miners and opposed evictions of the minors from company houses. So after a hatfield and chambers were murdered. You had some very significant things that were happening in mingo county. Which was this kind of beachhead for the unionization efforts in southern west virginia after world war one miners were living in tent colonies. Their families Families were starving. The state troopers came in tact the tent. Colony stole all the food and would not allow the us to send in more food and supplies and then they rounded up all the coal miners and put them in pens. Then when the one law enforcement officer who had stood up for the miners was murdered on august. The first nineteen twenty one. Five thousand miners congregated on charleston. Where my great grandfather. Frank keaney told the miners at the only way you can get your rights as with a high powered rifle then told them to go home and await the call to march inbetween. Mingo county and charleston. Were they left. That was logan county which was another notoriously anti union county and they had to try to break the defenses that were placed along blair mountain ridge lines that stretch for about twelve miles. The battle went for five days and was on on a twelve mile front but the monitors were never table to break through. Don shaven defenses a little bit more about your great grandfather. frank keaney. My grandfather grew up on cabin creek west. Virginia that's the home of famous Nba basketball player jerry west but before then it was just coal country and my family lost their land. Coal industry which many families did during that time. The biggest inhibitor to economic development and appalachia's absentee landownership. They lost their land. He started working as a trap boy in the minds just the age of ten. He made his way only to the sixth grade school but he self educated and during the paint creek cabin creek car strike of nineteen twelve nineteen thirteen. He became a leader in that strike. A strike the turn very very violent and which somewhere between fifty one hundred people were killed during that strike and but he led the miners to victory and after that he was elected to president of the union in west virginia and president of the west virginia state federation of labor. He was an ardent socialist and Rather militant and not afraid to use direct action. i think as we're speeding towards labor day which you know for so many feels like well. You know it's it's kind of the last moment of holiday someplace. Schools are marking the beginning there. But i'm not sure that we sort of retail enough In the broadest sense this history of what labor movement's really were. I mean i think it's still jaw-dropping for so many of us that it was this level of violence. These were not peaceful demonstrations in that sense no not at all the and the fact that it was an inner racial and ethnic mix of miners around twenty percent of the miners were marching. Were african americans About another thirty percent were recent immigrants that come over and this was something that really scared. The powers that be one cooperator said testifying after the battle. He said You cannot imagine. The terrorism that prevailed anywhere one could look one could see a collared man with a rifle. Those are his words. They controlled five hundred square miles of territory. Us army was brought in the us. Air service was brought in but this idea of poor whites blacks and immigrants working together when we know that those groups often pitted against one another. Today's political arena. That scared the powers that be. And that's just an blair took place only around ninety days after tulsa so all of that's fresh on the minds of the people that are taking up arms isn't this also part of the beginning of the language redneck. Right when you think of the word redneck. Of course most people think of this stereotype and there are different. Origins of the word redneck but coal miners and labor of pro union. People began wearing red bandannas in west virginia and so coal miners were called rednecks. And that meant your union man. If you say the word redneck in nineteen twenty one. It did not mean anything close to what it means. Today it meant you were union. Man that were black rednecks. There were immigrant rednecks. It was a symbol of their union. Pride and miners would continue to wear red bandannas. Third black lung association sixties and. When teachers went on strike in west. Virginia they wore red bandannas just years. It has become a symbol of labor solidarity and unionism but they but because the miners didn't win the battle of their mountain. They didn't control the story. And so companies and the the media were able to say the violence was not a product of this industrial autocracy but rather the violence. Was this backward ignorant moonshine drinking culture. It allowed people to be dismissive of individuals in the culture here in the region and why there was so much violence to begin with. I want to go to this point that you made about absentee land owners. Can you say a few more words about that because that sounds like it's an analysis about economic conditions right now not just one hundred years ago right. The economic conditions really haven't changed that much one hundred years. What they did is co companies tried to come. In and railroad company's steel companies came into the region after they found out the wealth of coal. That was here in the eighteen eighties. And of course many people already living on the land in order to get to the land companies came up with something called the broad form deed which enabled them to buy mineral rights and so they could buy the land underneath and so the land was stolen by these out of state corporations that means several things number one locals don't control the land and they don't control their own economic destiny and it also means that the wealth that has generated west virginia doesn't stay here and so you know there's billions and billions of dollars that have been made every year from coal but none of it stays in west virginia were very very small percentage which is one of the reasons that the places mired in poverty and the problem with that is is the industry able to control school curriculum and media around here and tell people that the only reason that you even have an economy is because of coal as opposed to being the only reason you don't have any wealth is because of coal so they're able to flip the script because they've been able to control the narrative since the battle of blair mountain save more about that control of the narrative as as a historian as a writer who is Uncovering this In telling this story which is both a a family story community story but also our national story. What were you taught in school. Nothing i was not taught at all about the mind wars and so i learned from my family. They co industry created something called the american constitutional association right after world war one and they used that control school curriculum in the state of west virginia to deliberately take the mind wars and all labor struggles out of textbooks for example the large industrial disaster in. Us history took place in west. Virginia hawks disaster in which nearly eight hundred people were killed. Most of them african americans and were they were dumped in unmarked graves. This was in the thirties. Nobody knows about that outside of west virginia. Because it's just been deliberately taken out of the textbooks and if you understand that this is a history that's been erased you begin to understand the world view in the mentality of the people have here. I call it the mind to guard system yet. The mind guard system. This police state that the coal companies used in early part of the twentieth century. Now i said they have the mind guard system in which they're able to control news school curriculum and information that people get really shaped their world. Views as you're talking about this. I'm thinking about the current debate raging around critical race theory and i'm thinking I wonder if we've actually more dangerous to a system of inequity to teach critical race theory or at least as it's presented in these partisan battles or to actually teach it there was an interracial coalition of working class people who rose up and saw their their combined interest right. America's labor history and more specifically the battle of blair mountain challenge the very tenants in the very ideals tied with the american dream. Where the concept of the united states. Is it anti-american to challenge. The capitalist system is at unpatriotic to take up arms against your company so many ways this conflict that's Started out being waged in the coalfields and is now waged. Classrooms is many ways a conflict over the very ideals of what america is and should be and we need to insert race and labor and gender and those things into the classroom so that students are more equipped to better understand what's going on And understand why things are the way they are if that part of why. You are a founding member of the west virginia mine wars museum yes For several reasons we created the mind worst museum in two thousand fifteen and this was a number of activists and scholars and some union coal miners and locals and mate one west virginia who joined together and we wanted to create a grassroots people's history museum to rectify the fact that this is a story that's left out of the classroom if the institutions aren't going to tell the story then we're going to tell the story itself. The industry wanted to destroy this history so much. They tried to actually destroy the blair mountain battlefield with mountaintop removal coal mining. And the mine. Moore's museum came from a number of activist and scholars including myself that led an effort to stop the industry from destroying the battlefield. We were successful in that effort. And that's a lot of what my book is about and about that mentality. That is in the coalfield because this this history is simply not apart of the consciousness. If someone were to visit museum what would they say. You would see a number of different things. I have for example Poetry book that my great grandfather had while he lived in a tent and a tent colony nineteen twelve or nineteen thirteen. You see bullets fired on the blair mountain battlefield like scrip. The companies used to pay the miners. They weren't paid in american money. There's a particular piece of script that i just love. That just really symbolizes everything. And that's it's a piece of scripted. Says good for one loaf of bread and if you're a individual and you got paid with that they're not only dictating. You can't spend america's money but they're dictating to you what you can buy so when you see that and you begin to be able to put your hands on and touch the actual items of oppression. Then you can begin to see why these miners were so militant and why they became so violent. It's not this backward feuding moonshine drinking culture but rather people that had just been pushed too far. You all are planning a big celebration for labor day. Yes the mine. Wars museum is formed a coalition with other groups. Called blair one hundred. You can check out the website player. One hundred dot com and there's four days worth of events. The united mine workers is going to be reenacting. The entire armed march all fifty miles that we can there. Somewhere neighborhood of thirty events Much of that was going to be available online for people who can't travel or not want to do to the delta variant but It's going to be a lot of events we've already had a couple of online events. Be good blair. One hundred dot com and check that out can also go to the mind worse museums youtube page and see some videos. We have about as well as video that tells people what's going on with Blair mountain battlefield today. Just one last question for you. So it's been a hundred years. I did hear you say a bit earlier in our conversation. That very little has changed about the economic circumstances of folks who are living in these communities what might be possible in the next hundred years What are some of the steps that need to be happening now so that a hundred years from now there's not a historian saying well and it still about the same right is. There is a reason for hope. Yes there is a. I call it in my book. Identity reclamation whenever the coal companies blast a mountain that they do what's called reclamation afterwards in which you're supposed to kind of put the mountain back together which is a big joke. You can't really fully redo your identity if it's been scarred and manipulated for generations but what you can do is try to pick up the pieces and begin to take control of your narrative. That's one of the things that the mind worst museum is doing and in doing so we believe that we are empowering younger generations to take control of their own destiny when we started our little museum six years ago the little town of may one there was nothing in the town and all the stores were boarded up. All the buildings were abandoned now. Five new businesses have opened up in the town. This little tiny place is beginning to thrive again because heritage tourism so there are ways in which we can begin to seek alternative economies here but it begins i think with education it begins with the new generations coming up that is not have their ideology forced upon them or dictated to them by the coal industry. Or what they see in local Corporate controlled media. Charles keeney author of the road to blair mountain. Thank you so much for joining the takeaway. Most.

"But i know i heard something at the ground after i saw it fly in the sky. I wish i could find what hit the thicket that it fell into would be almost impossible. I know we will continue to seek into the unknown. The brown mountain lights. I hope to get a new video recorders soon. Catches lights digitally and said through the hi eight tapes like i'm using now for evidence if not been too bad mel and you should try and make the trip one night. Maybe you'll find that fascinating too and you have it. The brown mountain lights were being around hundreds of years. Old still caused discussion and debate. What are these mysterious into these that so many claim to see a brown mountain. You probably never know that is crazy. Oh god there's just so many like okay so everyone talk about your first trip to brown mountain and now that's going to be my name for my ass like yeah like rooming the brown mountain. Oh god okay. That is brown mountain ridge. The so one actually set in chat brown mountain like imo. Uti in like mountain someone that was really appropriate. So well done so. Now we're onto believer skeptic. Absolutely all right cool. So for skeptic. I admit that. I think that there are Definitely scientific explanations for all of this. I did talk about some of this in our fee fillet episode. But then i also found some one article just randomly through something out. That actually made a lot of sense. So i'm going to say that too but i Scientists believed that the light is produced by type of bio luminescent fungus or algae in some places especially in marshy areas. Just like fireflies anglerfish. These plants could undergo a unique chemical process to produce light. So that's one explanation. Still other side those The maldives that like part of the ocean. That's all bioluminescence. Exactly like you know these creatures evolve to be able to survive and that's part of their evolution in so that could of course explain why you're seeing these balls of light on other scientists and this is something that chris had mentioned that they say that a mixture of gases Not from thai food is responsible for the lights. And there's a whole description here about methane and carbon dioxide and stuff but it's really nerdy and boring so i'm just gonna say that chemicals combine and some of them were combustible so they can produce this burning ball of light hovering above marsh. But here's the thing..

Says well you can get this recipe and so many more ideas on new york times cooking visit. Nypd cooking dot com get inspired one of the wildlife conservation. Society's indonesian key field workers who goes by moss. Yoke had brought me here. He had spent months riding on the back of motorbikes and showing up in small villages he told them about the societies plans that they wanted to find a way to help them as farmers and maybe helped saved the forest to some people sent him away. Wouldn't even listen to the first word but here in this remote mountain ridge in a village called eugene ramblin. He had found a curious and welcoming group of farmers. I wanted to know how any of this could have ever happened in the first place. Why grow coffee here. So maas yoke led me to one of the oldest men in an giang rimba n- and asked him to explain it all to me from the beginning as with anyone involved in the illegal coffee trade in sumatra he is identified here only by an initial. 'em invited me into his home. We sat down on the floor with a pack of tech's an ashtray and two cups of coffee. He told me a long story. He said the first people who had come to this place long before it would even be named eugene ramblin had come in the nineteen fifties it was a group of no more than a dozen people they tried to clear a little land and plant some crops to feed themselves but elephants still lived in this place every time their crops came in an elephant would come stomping through the field eating whatever he wanted so those i people at mostly given up 'em arrived in nineteen sixty six. He cleared two acres that year. He said cutting down the rainforest by hand was hard work chopping and digging all day long in the heat. He laughed and twisted his hands in the air as he could still remember ringing the sweat from his shirt so many years ago by this time the elephants had become scarce in this place and so his crops were successful. He planted cabbage and eggplants some rice and peppers. He picked fruit from trees. It was a bountiful place. He said so. He thought he'd plant something that could make him a little bit of money. In this way m took responsibility for everything that happened afterward. He was the one who brought coffee to this place. He said he brought the plants up the same steep cliff. I'd climbed to get here. Only he didn't ride on dirt bike every single coffee-plant he brought here came on his own back. He said he carried six thousand plants all by himself. He smiled when he said this not unlike a grandfather who delights in telling children tall tales. M.'s coffee plants grew well and earned him as he hoped a little bit of money. Then many people came and more people planted coffee until it was not just one hamlet here but a string of hamlets throughout the forest all populated by coffee farmers looking for a little land m said that this was a good place that people were kind to one another that the ethnic differences that can sometimes cause conflict in indonesia. Were set aside here that they were proud to have a diversity of people living in peace. The only part of the story that m. was upset to tell was a day in the nineteen eighties when the national park was formed. The men who drew the border of bukit barisan selatan. 'em said had drawn the park's boundary between his house and his farm. He repeated this detail several times setting down his pack of critics in one place and his ashtray in another and drawing with his finger. Line between the two. He felt it was wrong to split up his land. That way and at any trouble that came to this place had been because of the way the line was drawn. Later that night i was woken up to hear another story. I was sleeping on the floor in one of the objects houses when apparently my conversation with 'em had been discussed. Are one of your dicks needed to tell me that m. Got the story wrong. he said it wasn't 'em who i brought coffee here but ours father. It was a as convincing as m.'s. With a few new details there had been a wealthy ivory trader in leila that ours father worked for. Our father was out scouting in the woods. When he found this beautiful plateau. The ivory traitor are said. Was the reason the elephants had disappeared from this place. Which made coffee planting possible during my time in eugene ramblin. I began to learn that the conflicting details of stories. I was hearing the willful omissions and contradictory histories could tell me as much about this place as the verifiable facts often. When i asked where a man's farm was he would tell me over there and point somewhere vague and distant knowing there was no benefit to me knowing exactly where his farm was. Some of the people who lived here had farms that were legal and outside the park. The confusion created by this fact gave cover to the people who were farming illegally the clearest omission in all of these stories is something 'em specifically didn't talk to me about. He said he came to this remote and difficult place in nineteen sixty six. He said other people started coming here then too but he didn't say anything about what had been happening that year beginning in nineteen sixty five. A program of mass killing spread throughout indonesia communist organizers and sympathizers as well as many others caught up in the conflict were systematically hunted down and killed by the thousands a story from time magazine in nineteen sixty five described the scene. The killings have been on such a scale that the disposal of the corpses has created a serious sanitation problem in east java and northern sumatra. Where the humid air bears the reek of decaying flesh travelers from those areas. Tell of small rivers and streams that have been literally clogged with bodies modern estimates say approximately. One million people were killed in those years. It is not so hard to imagine that nineteen sixty six was a year when many people in sumatra would have wanted to disappear into a forest.

I think no apology necessary. Utah High School teacher has apologized. For offering to reward students who had received a covert 19 vaccine. Kelly Don Kelly did Han, the choir director of Mountain Ridge High School in Harriman. Posted an apology after some parents expressed anger over his actions on Social media quote. In my zeal to reward students were getting vaccinated. Crossed an important wine, Dawn wrote. I am so sorry. If I offended anyone who has strong feelings about the vaccination, all students will be grated solely on their participation. And efforts in my class so up So it's okay for Some parents to have strong feelings about the vaccination, but it's not okay. It's not okay for Mr Donde have strong feelings about the vaccination because his strong feelings are He wants people vaccinated well in this choir director. That's one of the scariest places to be is singing in the choir when you're not vaccinated, right. Han admitted that he had told students that if they received a vaccination, they would not need to make up points. For the classes that they had missed. Thank you for your patience is I fixed a few points I've given and walked back my initial statement. I apologize, Mr Johnson. Mr. Don. No apology is necessary. No. Boner candidate number one Just the fact that he felt he had to apologize and the angry parents His boner candidate number two. We don't know what critical race theory is. We don't know if it exists in Utah schools rather than finding out where against it because we got a lot of emails about it. That's exactly what it is. And that's what Robert Jerky wrote about the whole situation. Democrats staged a walkout of the Utah House floor on Mass Wednesday afternoon in protest of a resolution brought by House Republicans on the teaching of critical race theory in Utah. Schools and over gun rights. By the way, radio from hell. We are the only morning show, which has offered Theo conduct workshops and classes in critical race theory will will do that the Legislature be damned well know about it Come to us. We're gonna have Darlene McDonald on the show tomorrow, and she's certainly going to explain it to everybody. But we're willing to admit we don't understand what it is either. I've never taken a college level course on it, Have you No, but I understand what it is, but so so they Legislature didn't care. They just got a lot of People contacting them saying, Don't we can't have this book, but the reason that they're reaching out to the Legislature's They've been told by right wing groups and Fox News and Sean Hannity and Facebook that this is a thing. It's not a thing. So boner candidate number Two is we don't know what critical race theory is. We don't know if it exists in Utah schools were rather than finding out.

Supreme Court Pipeline Fight Could Disrupt The Appalachian Trail

Supreme Court Pipeline Fight Could Disrupt The Appalachian Trail

"We're going to spend the next few minutes talking about Supreme Court case and the group that feels caught between the two sides. If it's ever built the Atlantic coast pipeline would run six hundred miles and carry natural gas from West Virginia North Carolina and Virginia. Between Start Finish is a big physical barrier the Blue Ridge mountains and what has become a potential legal barrier the Appalachian trail environmental groups who oppose the pipeline have challenged the legality of a forest service permanent allowing the pipeline to cross the trail. The people who manage the trails say that challenge took them by surprise and they warn the ruling in favor of those environmental groups could up in the trails complicated management structure. Npr's Becky Sullivan explains Do you want to uh. Let's go this way earlier. This month I came out to the spot on the trail where the Atlantic coast pipeline may one day cross. It's about an hour west of Charlottesville right up on a mountain ridge. The George Washington National Forest. The trail is just a dirt footpath winding through trees. That are all bear because it's February from up here you can see out into the valley to the north. I met Andrew Downes a senior regional director for the Appalachian Trail Conservancy. That's the private organization that oversees the day to day management of the trail the coordinates efforts between federal and state agencies and the boots on the groundwork of regional groups and volunteers. So the the orange you think that orange flags are marking this. It's it's about in the right area and I've been out here probably a dozen times as we're walking along the trail. Andrew Downes wants to make one thing clear the Appalachian Trail. Conservancy is not opposed to this pipeline. They don't support it but they also don't oppose that's not to say that there aren't direct impacts from Atlanta 'cause pipeline to the show there are our analysis led us to the conclusion that the scope and range of those impacts did rise to the level requiring opposition for one the pipeline would cross under the trail about seven hundred feet underground it would enter and exit on private land off the national forest. You would see a clear pathway around the pipeline off in the distance and if we were standing in True Wilderness Andrew. Johns says that might be caused for but standing on the trail here. It's not exactly wilderness. We're looking at. The view is already dotted with what he calls impacts houses roads fields all sorts of things cutting through the trees below all the visual impacts that we see for the you know this kind of wilderness experience. The best way to do that is for all those things not to exist in this natural enforced in landscape. But the reality is you know. We're here. The Blue Ridge Parkway here people's homes are here and this is part of the society we live in the Appalachian trail. Conservancy runs on this kind of pragmatism. It's part of the deal when you're coordinating multiple federal and state agencies with the effort of thirty plus regional clubs and thousands of volunteers. The conservancy has been doing this work for almost a century so well before the Appalachian trail was brought under federal management as part of the national trails system in the nineteen sixties. But they were not part of this litigation what happens is is people want to stop a pipeline oftentimes for good reasons and they. WanNa use every tool available To do that. The question before the court centers around who is allowed to grant a permit for pipeline like this on federal land because the pipeline would cross the trail in a national forest the four service granted permits the pipeline company. The Forest Service doesn't have the authority to grant a permit across the National Park and though the trail is managed day today by the Appalachian Trail. Conservancy it is technically a part of the National Park. System Noah Sachs is a professor of environmental law at the University of Richmond. He's been watching this case so if in fact the Appalachian trail is part of the national park system then the Forest Service had no authority to authorize this tunneling underneath it for the Atlantic coast pipeline. That's the argument and environmental group. Used to challenge the Forest Service permit the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals agreed and they revoked the permit. The pipeline company has appealed. So that's really the crux of the issue. That's before the Supreme Court on Monday. The issue of on the ground authority over the Appalachian trail has never been questioned in this way before. Trail officials say this worries them because of the way they manage the trail because it causes so many different kinds of lands federal state parks forest even some privately owned land. The Appalachian trail conservancy has relied on decades of precedent policies and understanding. In order to do its work. It's not that it would all come crashing down tomorrow. But Supreme Court ruling could potentially trigger along bureaucratic process if reexamining and reestablishing many of the policies and procedures that have effectively been in place for more than fifty years and that process could disrupt the trails everyday management needs until her retirement last December Rita. Hennessy was the administrator of the national trail system. That's the office within the park. Service that oversees these types of national trails. The Fourth Circuit's ruling in two thousand eighteen caught her by surprise the fact that it was identifying the Appalachian trail corridor as part of the National Park Service. That's what was most surprising that that's not how we have managed the national trails system for fifty years. And is he told me. She immediately worried about the domino effects when I asked how a Supreme Court decision to uphold might affect the administration of the Appalachian Trail and is he reeled off a series of policies that could be thrown into doubt issues of environmental compliance land-management acquiring lands trail maintenance volunteer use. You get the idea. She'll be watching the arguments Monday with some nervousness because any decision by the Supreme Court could change things for the trail you know having worked with national trails for my whole thirty year career and beyond that it it. It's something that's out there that that is just looming and were not sure how it's going to be decided. The trail conservancy says they are already seen complications. From the case they say the four service recently asked them to put on pause every trail maintenance project they had plans that would take place on national forest land. This summer the forest service declined to comment because of the ongoing litigation. The Southern Environmental Law Center is the Environmental Group leading the litigation in response to trail. Officials concerns attorney. Dj Gherkins says the question before the court is so narrow that it will not affect trail management. No one should worry that the outcome of this case is going to affect the cooperative management that has been part of the Appalachian trails success and should be going forward no matter how the court rules. It's not the end of the road for the Atlantic coast pipeline or for the environmental groups who oppose it. The pipeline company is lobbying Congress for a special permit and Gherkins. Group has won several other challenges to the pipeline. That will still pose obstacles regardless of how this case turns out for the trail. This is the big one Andrew Downes with the Appalachian Trail Conservancy. There are a lot of organizations who are focused on protecting the environment Litigating broad focused environmental issues and I applaud those folks but there's only one organization the whole world that's dedicated solely to the Appalachian trail and we have to make sure that our decision process reflects that that level of Focus. Because if it's not us that speak for the trail and only the trail in no one else will oral arguments for the case. Take place Monday. The court is expected to rule this summer becky Sullivan NPR
