What Is Going on in El Salvador?
"Going on in El Salvador El Salvador's out of country we talk about a lot, unfortunately, the only reason we usually talk about El Salvador is the criminals that are coming from El Salvador that are coming into our country, but El Salvador is deciding to take things into their own hands. El Salvador borders the north Pacific Ocean. It is obviously in Central America, borders Honduras and Guatemala. And it's a small country, all things being equal, but it's also a very violent country. In fact, unfortunately, El Salvador, most Americans, if they were to think of El Salvador, they would think of El Salvador as being a violent, a viciously violent gang infested country. But I think this is worthy of noting of how El Salvador has decided to take things into their own hands and be leaders. So the new president of El Salvador, in fact, I don't know if he's new. I just think he's good. I don't know how long he's been in office. We'll find out in a second. President bukele has decided to embark on an ambitious new project. As soon as I saw this news story, I thought of a very specific Hollywood reference, of course I thought of Harvey dent in The Dark Knight where you just arrest like 2000 gangbangers at once. He's been president since 2019. So apparently he's been working on this for some time. Let's go to cut 60 Jesse watters who reports on El Salvador's new president moving gang members to do to a new mass mega prison. And is the country safer? Not only is it safer, but crime in El Salvador has dropped so dramatically there has not been a murder in the whole country in a week. What a concept

There were 5 passengers on the flight, but there has been no word about what happened to them. The rebels, there are some tribes over there that are, what are the 8 people? What is it called? I don't think you still happens, but they were one of the last places in the world where you could still find headhunters, and they used to shrink the heads. Oh boy. Anyway, maybe that's what happened to the passengers. I don't know. The rebels have been demanding that flights to paro cease, and say they won't release this pilot from New Zealand until the gain independence from Indonesia. Okay. The group claimed the responsibility in a Facebook post on Tuesday. TPN PB has admitted the responsibility for the burning of the plane and taking hostage of ASUS air pilot, who was a citizen of New Zealand, and we keep our promise and our politically responsible, it said in the statement. Indonesia has control the region since 1969 and the rebels have been fighting it ever since. Indonesia considers the TPN BP to be a terrorist organization. New Zealand isn't commenting. I think he's still there. He's still there, huh? Liz? Okay. Oh, that's not good. Well, I've no doubt they'll negotiate their way out of this, but it's the remote plants of happy New Guinea are pretty inhospitable, and I don't suppose they're anywhere close to what we would term civilized. So I expect this poor chap having a bit of a rough time of it while they try and work out what they're going to do with them and if they're going to use him to get their aims. I don't think the indonesians are going to give up any grip on the country just because of this event, but it certainly has hit the news. So the Papua New Guinean rebels are in a back on front page headlines. Exactly. I don't know about you, but something about this picture is it looks, I don't know. It looks familiar to me. I think, oh, that's it. Okay. If you're listening to the audio only podcast, you have to watch the videos. To see the picture I threw up there. And threw up is probably a great word for it. Okay. Moving on to this next one from paddle your own canoe. A small fire inside New York JFK's terminal one led to big consequences with a 16 hour flight to nowhere when an air New Zealand flight from Auckland was forced to return to the aurora New Zealand. Yeah, a place in New Zealand, after the New Zealand. Oh, that's their Maori name. Oh, that's their indigenous peoples name? Or New Zealand? Oh, okay. Well, why did they do that to me? They could have just said New Zealand. I believe that means white, a long white cloud. That's right. Liz says you are correct, sir. Anyway, so a 16 hour flight to nowhere where when an air New Zealand flight from Auckland was forced to return to New Zealand after it had already made it halfway across the north Pacific Ocean en route to New York. The fire broke out in the early hours of Thursday morning at JFK. It was quickly and safely extinguished, but not before it damaged power systems that left the entire terminal without power. Terminal one serves around 20 foreign airlines, and while some carriers. They would never fire in one of the domestic terminals. All the American Airlines now are some of the following Blake's mister conspiracy theory. Terminal one serves around 20 foreign airlines while and while some carriers were able to divert aircraft into other terminals, others were told there was simply no spare capacity, and that they wouldn't be allowed to land at JFK on Thursday. Air New Zealand found itself marked as one of the airlines that wouldn't be allowed to land at JFK, but not before its ultra long haul NZ two Auckland to New York flight had already taken off. In fact, by the point that the pilots of the Boeing 7 87 Dreamliner finally learned that power at terminal one wouldn't be restored in time for their arrival, they had already been in the air for more than 8 hours. At this point, that's about ten times longer than my average flight. At this point, the pilots reportedly made a suggestion to at least get the passengers to the United States. I agree. Massachusetts from the flight deck that were obtained by aviation insider ex John NYC on Twitter show how the pilots asked to divert to Houston were passengers could get onward domestic flights or wait in the hotels before continuing on to JFK. When the suggestion was rebuffed, the pilots even suggested a quick pit stop in crew change and some other U.S. city before carrying on to New York. This idea was also declined by the airline. Instead, the aircraft was forced to make a 180° turn and had straight back to Auckland, where the passengers and crew landed 16 hours after taking off from the very same city. A spokesperson for the airline, however, defended its decision to return to Auckland saying in a statement that diverting to another U.S. port would have meant the aircraft would remain on the ground for several days, impacting a number of other scheduled services and customers. I'm not sure

"But as the carbon dioxide gets absorbed into the water, the water is less and less able to absorb more carbon dioxide. So one of the things that we are concerned about is that the ability of the oceans to continue absorbing both carbon dioxide and heat will decrease as time goes on. And that's something that we're watching very closely in measuring. All right, let me have a couple few other follow-up questions on this research. You know, noted in the abstract and the article, of course, is that you note that certain and we know warming does not occur evenly across the earth, say, for example, the poles are warming at a much faster rate than elsewhere on the planet. But you know four basins, north Pacific North Atlantic Mediterranean, southern oceans, recorded their highest sea since the 1950s. So could you say a bit more about an even the effect of uneven warming? Yeah, absolutely. So you're exactly right. Some parts of the planet are warming faster than others. And that extends over the oceans. And you labeled four ocean basins or ocean regions that are warming more rapidly than others. And that has, well, there's a number of physical reasons for that. First of all, the atmosphere is flowing. We have air motion, so air carries heat around the planet, but also the oceans are flowing. And they carry their heat with them as well. And the two interact. So as the atmosphere changes direction, it actually pushes the ocean around. So we don't expect the oceans to warm uniformly. And they're not warming uniformly. And that actually has consequences for society, especially human health. So I mean, at the end of the day, his study was academic in one sense. We wanted to measure the oceans so that we would know what's happening to the Planet Earth. But it's also practical in another sense because a warming ocean has such strong effects on human health and society and economics. And the unevenness of the warming is one of the things that dictates how impactful the warm oceans will be. I'll just give you an example. If ocean waters warm over areas where hurricanes form, that's going to make hurricanes more strong. If oceans warm over areas where precipitation begins, that's going to make the precipitation stronger. So it's not just that the oceans are warming. It also we're keeping track of how it's warming the geographic distribution and what the distribution will be of the impacts on society. Right, you anticipated my next question of one of my next and this is the phrase you use in the article. The continued amplification of global hydrological cycle.

"And for the Cambodian run donut shops, these were relationships that were essential to cultivate, but also natural because when you're new to a country or an area, it's about building connections and expanding the people you know. In Southern California, cambodians still own many donut shops. What's fascinating is that many of the kids who grew up in and around donuts have gone on to do something different, but there are a good number who followed up what their parents started to take up the family business. The world is different now though, so hard work, family labor, and connections sometimes aren't enough. Traditional donuts don't always cut it anymore. Specialty donuts, social media presence as well as smart branding and marketing are so much more essential, cutting into the bottom line, of course. If you like donuts though, try your neighborhood small donut store. They might be part of the Cambodian donut community, especially if they're in California or Houston. But it's also just great to support small businesses and donuts. As always, we'd like to follow up our main story with short recurring segments. This is a segment called obscure Asian comic book characters where we feature agent Pacific comic book characters that many have forgotten or don't know about. Today's character is pearl penguin, AKA wave. A Marvel Comics character. Be warned, there will be some story spoilers as we talk about her history and background. Pearl pongan grew up near the beach on mactan island, which is in Cebu Philippines. At an early age, pearl had an affinity for water, she was a strong swimmer, and she had Olympic potential. Pearl started working for a fast food chain and it was there that she was approached by a representative of Allan tech, a company that wanted to use pearl swimming skills for experiments. She agreed, but had no idea that they were actually a nefarious organization. While there, Allan tech was raided by the group of heroes known as the triumph division. By the way, the triumph division is a group of the Philippines finest heroes. While the triumph division was fighting Allen tech personnel, pearl was drenched in water that had been exposed to energies of unknown origin. She was given the ability to control water, but she was inexperienced, and eventually tribe division defeated her and told her the truth about Allen tech. She was horrified. The heroes took her in and taught her how to control her newfound powers, and she became known as wave. Her first big hero gig was during the attack of malekith the accursed. Wave sensed something was wrong in the water and she went into the north Pacific, which was technically outside of her jurisdiction. She fought a Shanghai operative known as arrow, who had sensed a disturbance in the wind. Soon, though they figured out they were actually on the same side and had been tricked by the fire giants and their queen cinder. Cinder had leered them away from their homelands, but before wave could get an answer about who the fire giants were, the goddess Tutu Pelé killed the Giants. Waves powers are hydrokinesis, which is the ability to control any body of water and are best attack is known as the water blast, which works by gathering however much water she needs into her palms and throwing the water.

Welcome to brain stuff, a production of iHeartRadio. Hey brain stuff, Lauren vogelbaum here. Sea otters are basically the party animals of the sea. They're intelligent, rambunctious, chatty, curious, gregarious, and they're unequivocally objectively on the definitive short list of cutest adult animal. Whoever's keeping track of that inventory these days. Their babies are also in the running for cutest baby animal, which is saying something as the competition is much stiffer in that division. And aside from their sparkling personalities and fluffy, grinning faces, sea otters are also the glue that keeps their ecosystem together. Sea otters are in the weasel family, native to the north Pacific Ocean, from California, north along the Pacific coasts and islands of Alaska, and down the eastern edge of the kamchatka Peninsula of Russia. Since they spend most of their lives, bobbing around in Chile waters, using rocks and things to break shellfish open on their bellies, and they don't have a bunch of blubber to keep them warm like seals and walruses do. Sea otters possess the densest fur in the animal kingdom. While you and I probably have fewer than a 100,000 hairs on our entire heads, that many hairs can be found on a single square inch that's 6 and a half square centimeters of a sea otter's body. But what keeps them cozy can be a liability in some cases. For the article this episode is based on, it has to work spoke with Terry M Williams, a professor in the department of ecology and evolutionary biology at the University of California Santa Cruz. She said, the problem with the sea otter's unique firm is that it can't get dirty, so they spend a lot of time grooming it to keep it clean. The Exxon Valdez oil spill of 1989 killed more than a thousand sea otters in Prince William's sound, because their fur was contaminated with oil. Our team spent months cleaning them. The bottom line, though, is oil and otters don't mix. Aside from the fact that sea otter fur needs to be kept clean and fluffy or else it stops insulating them and they freeze to death, humans have unfortunately noticed how luxurious their coats are. Between the 18th and 19th centuries, the European fur trade decimated sea otter populations throughout their range. By the early 1900s, about 50 California sea otters, the subspecies living along the southern coast of California remained in the wild. But thanks to the international fur seal treaty of 1911, the marine mammal protection act and the endangered species act of the 1970s, California sea otters were able to make a partial comeback about 3000 live on the California coast today. Williams said in California, sea otters have reached carrying capacity in Monterey bay. In other words, there is just enough food for the sea otters currently living there. But for the population to grow, it would need to move to a new area. However, white sharks are believed to be keeping the otters from moving. In Alaska, killer whales have taken out large numbers, and 90% of the population of sea otters, along the aleutian islands. The picture is happier in the cordova area, where sea otters seem to be booming. Thanks to that nosedive in sea otter populations. It's easy to see that these fuzzy marine goofballs are actually extremely important to the ecology of the north Pacific seashore. A for starters, their populations help make for healthy kelp forests. The dense underwater jungles of tall algal strands that make coastal marine ecosystems in the north Pacific what they are. Sea otters service every part of these kelp forests, and because they have to eat a quarter to a third of their body weight daily, and spend between ten and 12 hours each day finding food, individuals within a population naturally sort themselves into specialized eating groups, or dietary guilds, the preferences for which are passed from mother to pump. Which gild and otter occupies has to do with the depth at which it likes to find food. Some otters dive deep and end up nabbing things like sea urchins and dungeness crabs off the sea floor, while others find their favorite foods at mid range depths of about 40 feet, that's 12 meters, a collecting small shellfish and worms. A third group prefers to forage around in shallow waters for snails. In this way, a population of sea otters can really work the kelp forest at every level, helping it to stay healthy and resilient in the way that only a top predator can. Or one way scientists have helped sea otters make a comeback in California, is by pairing orphaned otter babies with captive surrogate moms that can't be released into the wild. For the past 30 years, the Monterey bay aquarium has been pairing stranded babies with adult female otters in the aquarium's sea otter program, and the experiment has been wildly successful. It turns out female sea otters are more than happy to raise a baby that's not their own. Since it started in 1984, more than 700 adults and pups have moved through the sea otter program. How stuff works also spoke with Kyle van Hudson, a chief scientist at the Monterey bay aquarium. He said, in her latest study, we showed that surrogate reared otters and their offspring account for over half the population growth in some areas. We're just starting to see the extensive and positive impacts associated with a growing and healthy otter population. Today, many of our state's ecologically degraded estuaries could benefit from sea otter's return. So while we knew this was a great program and a feel good story, now we know it's also great science. There may come a time when you see more sea otters frolicking in the waves off the coast of California. But don't get too close. Williams said sea otters have been nicknamed chainsaws and a burlap bag. They have enormously powerful jaws, a perfect for cracking the shells of clams and easily breaking fingers. So as.

That begins south of the bricks mountain range in continues down the keanae peninsula. They were a highly nomadic travelling in small groups to fish hunt and trap.

"Zero zero here at smart oil and gas Our oil and gas history segment for this week reads like an Ian Fleming James Bond novel very interesting The years 1974 it's the height of the Cold War America versus Soviets a very tense time Our story takes place in the middle of the Pacific Ocean and a top secret covert mission launched by the CIA to recover a Soviet sub that had sunk in the Pacific with nuclear warheads on it with secret code books and all kinds of secrets that the U.S. would love to see Soviets couldn't find the sub we found it and the name of the mission to recover the sub was project azorian Its connection to oil and gas comes from none other than Howard Hughes from Houston Texas The CIA got Hughes to be the frontman for a deep sea exploration for oil and gas using the huge glomar explorer was actually a submarine recovery mission Project is orient This is an incredible story My dad's old boss Howard to use You know what He was a real technical guy so he probably loved us but he just he lent his name to this project to help the government cover up that they were going after Soviet submarine K one 29 that sank in the Pacific Ocean The Soviets somehow lost a submarine is a diesel submarine that had three nuclear warheads on it And so with the Americans when it is all the code books and to get their actual nukes too They wanted to make a study how they built a nuke So the trick or the charade that the CIA and ultimately Howard Hughes had to pull off was to make an oil and gas exploration project looked legit on the surface but in reality underneath make it a very different mission and that was to raise a Soviet sub with nukes and secret codes and all the stuff they wanted to get As it turns out the project was not a total success but at the end of the day we ended up with some pretty valuable information And the reason they were able to pull off this huge charade was the fact that they were using one of the biggest ships of the day for offshore exploration and that's the huge glomar explorer Very amazing Yeah and so they built it and they put a drilling ring on it and they have all the drill pipe on there It was all fake And then on the bottom they hit what they call a moon bay which is something that we use in oil and gas anyway They made it so that of course in the shipyards I kept a secret they made it so that a submarine if they picked up a submarine they can bring it in So they designed this drillship to lower a high pressurized submarine that had claws on it and they're going to lower it down to the sub Grab the submarine with these claws using drill pipe So it made it look like they're drilling a well And lower the drill pipe down but you couldn't see the submarine So it looks like a drill bit coming through the Ric floor and then they attach the submarine to and they drop this thing down And then they grab the Soviet submarine Now what they had to do they had to use a drillship Then in the north Pacific which is very rough seas didn't move more than a couple of feet They had all of these computerized positioning thrusters This thing even in rough seas would sit idle in the sea It wouldn't move It's going to go down 15,000 feet Grab the sub It's got nuclear warheads on it I don't think I'd want to be on this ship myself Sure enough They brought the whole 136 feet which is the front two thirds of submarine All the way up to the ship and as they were putting it in the moon bay a hundred feet of it broke off and went back down But they kept a hundred feet and a bunch of codebooks apparently Two nuclear warheads all this stuff and it was top secret It didn't come out until 20 years later What the Americans had done You know Howard Hughes had to love the fact that he was involved in this And they were speculation There were other missions in addition to this Hughes was involved in because he was such an important contractor for U.S. government projects Has a bunch of military contracts So you know it wouldn't be unusual for them to be doing something with the government anyway So they were trying to make it so they didn't draw any attention on what they were doing Sure Nothing went in there got a bunch of stuff from the Soviet stuff They got 5 Soviet seamen and they gave them a burial at sea with honors and that sort of thing It sent a tape later on like 20 years later to the so they also recovered the bell from the ship and sent it as a gift of goodwill much later It had they done it right away That was also the semen or a radioactive So they buried them in like lead caskets What great history lesson Mark and we must thank the American oil and gas historical society fantastic website and a resource for a lot of our history segments here on the program Smart oil and gas on the air for a couple more minutes We still have time to send you the oil and gas investor guide if you give us a call So we can project for you how much less you're going to pay for this year's taxes

We're finding you know different types of fish that are i think Congregating in those areas that are are are cooler and Some of the scientists that are involved in fisheries management and trying to understand the decline Of all of these species are starting to look at that type of a factor in In trying to answer where have all the fish con so there's a myriad of of dynamics involved in that very question. Thank you ben of rex before august. Show ends you offered a few comments about climate change a company's perspective her I i definitely can't speak for governor himself but you know i guess personally it's it's you know we see it up north. We've seen the the ice conditions change and the weather's changed You know we've obviously you know you can see the. The glaciers are receding but that's been happening since the ice ages Stopped right So you know the the the part that we're trying to figure out is like who's we speeding that process up And then it's it's in who's to who's to blame that also like with the going back to utah everything else. You got You got other fisheries from our firm our neighboring People along the lines on the other side of the lines That are we heard that our our fishing right outside of their so. We're we're trying to to take any. And every or anything that we get information that we get and and look at it and dissect it and then have these meetings with the governor himself and the cheapest ask is like that. it's important to them. And and like i said jeeva staff is finished when he was little and so and and i have have as well how did as well. So we all we all understand. Well thank you and that is obviously way more of this conversation. But i'm grateful for the time we had today. That's all the time we have for our show. And i wanna thank our guests.

I think i think it is always possible to mirror certain behaviors however it is not probable It is it is possible. I don't want you want to keep an open mind and that loud anything but at the same time. It's not probable. This is a peer reviewed.

Japan's looking around by this point in the war and saying to itself Well, this is going pretty well. This is going very well. Why don't we expand a little bit and go after the island That's essentially halfway through Japan, halfway from Japan in Hawaii, called Midway Go after the I told me what you know the battle. So they send a fleet towards midway. I'm not going to go into that today. That doesn't matter, but there was another part of it. They thought. What? We have this gigantic action it mid way we're going to try to expand our circle a little bit. As a distraction from midway and maybe to gain a foothold in the North Pacific. Why don't we take a couple of islands in Alaska? There are two islands We're going to talk about today at two and kiss ca.

And with that kind of an intensity and with the record breaking fire season, we had This year last year left many of those communities very vulnerable. That amount of rain. Yeah, that amount of rain. I guess it's from this thing called the Atmospheric River. Is that normal to receive so much rain in such a short period of time? Well. The term atmospheric robbery often is called the Pineapple Express sort of explains where the precipitation or the rainfall comes from. And these kinds of events have two components. Jetstream dips the south and drags along a very cool, moist Storm out of the North Pacific that in trains Plume of moisture which develops in the tropics. Are the sub tropics. On think of this plume as a river in the sky. They're about 300 Miles wide, and they carry on awful lot of moisture because the errors warm Story contain Mars Mar Mar Stir, So it's these plumes which get in trained in the storms. They carry almost 10 times the amount of water that flows out of the Mississippi River. And as these Clones. Hit the coast or collide with the coast. They're laden with all this tropical moisture. They're lifted by the coastal mountains. And they unload copious amounts of rainfall. Now in Central California. They had very heavy rainfall, but the storm sort of lost steam as it turned the corner at point conception. So here in the L A basin. We only got 123 inches out of the storm. Most places only got an inch and a half to two inches. So we have the tail end of it Now here in a way, yes, were it should go through the remainder of the day, but it's pooping out on us now. OK, but these are not unusual. They provide Californians with about 50%. Of winter rainfall. And, uh, you know, uh, let me remind everybody that we're in an extreme drought situation. In the last few weeks. This is the first Significant rainfall we've had in more than nine months. And so we need this friend. We will take it as long as it doesn't cause a lot of devastation.

Polynesian Explorers
"Thompson has been in examining oral histories the records of Captain Cook and the accomplishments of the Polynesian voyaging society. All to investigate what it can tell us about how we view the world. Today she pieces together the navigation puzzle of sailors and settlers in her book. See People Christina. Welcome thanks for having me. So when when we think of Polynesia talk about how big it is and what it has in common culturally so Polynesia is the area that is inside of this triangle we'll formed by Hawaii in the North New Zealand in the southwest and Easter Island in the southeast. It's an area of about ten million square miles and it smack in the middle of the Pacific Ocean and it happens that all the people who live on the islands in this area which is the island's that people have heard of like Tahiti or saw more or maybe the mark cases they all share a common cultural heritage. They all speak related languages and they have a similar genetic. Ming up no Christina. You say ten million square miles and originally they were not populated by human beings at all so somehow people had to get there and there was no communication. People didn't right. They didn't have metal tools. They didn't have navigational devices that I can imagine. Can you just kind of paint a picture to the best that we can. We're were there caravans of canoes just going out into the unknown C or how did these islands become populated originally well. I think one thing we don't know is how many canoes necessarily sailed together but basically the idea is that you know some thousands of years ago over in what sometimes people call the island nursery Sirri of Southeast Asia in the islands around the Philippines and Indonesia and stuff people developed an outrigger. which is this thing that sticks out from the side of the canoe to keep it balanced to keep it from from tipping over and with the development of the outrigger people started to be able to make some longer distance? Voyages and the canoes the Polynesian sailed in were like Catamaran's they had to halls else and they were stable and they could carry a load of people and animals and so they started making longer and longer voyages. There's some again some thousands of years ago from this western side of the Pacific out further and further and further into the mid Pacific. But it must have been hit or miss because they didn't have maps. They didn't have radar. They didn't know where the islands were if they were islands. Do you think they were just kind of going toward the sunset and hoping to hit land now the sunrise is actually but they obviously looking for islands and the islands are what they call inter visible. You can see one from. I'm the other in the Western Pacific. A lot of them are. There's a big leap when they get past that point and they start to sail out to islands that you can't see so they're probably exploring hiring and looking for them they really were amazing navigators. They weren't sailing blinds. They understood how to go to one place and sail back from that place after. Remember where that place was and things like that. They must have been exploring but we don't really know how they found islands like the end of Hawaii. Which is the islands of Hawaii are very isolated in the North Pacific? How did they find them who knows because we have no written history people? Just build a raft. That was kind of like one of those early outriggers Imagining how they might have done it and just without knowing if they did it prove that they could have done it like those. Expeditions seemed to be part of science right right so the the earliest one was was to Harles kon-tiki raft which he he allowed to drift basically from the coast of South America and ended up in the middle of the Pacific on the tomatoes. And that was an kind of an early experiment in this vain but then in the nineteen seventies in Hawaii some people got together and decided to try and build a true replica vessel so a copy of what they imagined. An ancient Polynesian voyaging canoe would been like and they decided to try and sale it from Hawaii to Tahiti and back again and that was the beginning of what what is really kind of an experimental voyaging movement in Hawaii. And what was that expedition called. The ship was called Hokule'a it Okla has made an around the world voyage now but that was in two thousand sixteen I guess but between Nineteen Seventy in two thousand sixteen they have made voyages absolutely everywhere. They sailed to to Easter to New Zealand. All around the Pacific to the point is to prove that it could be done yet to show the voyaging capacity of the Polynesians basically to show that non instrumental. Navigation vacation is really a thing and that people can go very long distances using it. You know that it's a real technique. You said they sailed it. Is it drifting with the wind and the tides is it with a sale or is it paddling they have a sale. They have a steering paddle but they sail. What were the very first contact with European society like in the Polynesian World? Some of them were violent. Some of them were not. We don't have any idea what the markes ins thought of men Donya when he arrived Zeppelin we know record of it and what I mean. There's the record of the Spanish but we don't really know for sure what archaisms thought There was a little bit of that I think. In some cases there it was all in some cases there was fear in some cases. There was something that you might call. Greed greed Westerners. No on the part of the I mean I. I think that a lot of islanders actually looked at these ships once they realized kind of what was going on and who these people were they actually wanted the ships. There are definitely stories of ambushes. Did they have some kind of A religious context again in the case of the conquistadors from Spain I mean in their religion I understand. It was on this certain year. A man on a horse you know was going to come and on that certain year the man on the horse with the beard came just like their scripture said and they disfigured this must be divided and they laid down their weapons and was there any kind of dimension of that local cultural religion with the arrival of the first Europeans pins or was it the opposite The story of Cook's arrival in Hawaii is kind of like that story that he arrived during a festival in he seemed to be the embodiment of the deity. Who was being celebrated in the Festival because switches to happen that he arrived at that time? I think that that added to the confusion of cooks experience. AGREEANCE cook was killed in Hawaii. That was where he died. And it was not long after this encounter during this festival period and I think it added to sort of chaos and confusion that he had Iraq during that a period. This is travel with. Rick Steves talking with Christina Thompson. Her book is see people the Puzzle of Polynesia and we're talking about early explorers of the Pacific both before the Europeans arrived and after so captain cook arrived and they thought. Oh It's a festival in here comes God and then things went sour and they killed killed them. Tell us a little more about that. So what happened. Is that Cook. He went up north to Alaska and then or the Northwest Pacific and then he came down and when he came down he was looking for a place to rest his crew and he sort of hit the island of Maui and then he went east so he sailed all the way around the big island before he found a place to come to rest his crew and that meant that he was sailing in his ship all the way slowly because against the wind all the way around the big island for quite a while and so when he arrived the legend of Lono the God that he sort of seemed to be representing was that Leno passed around the island in the same. I'm way he was represented as carrying a staff with White Tapa cloth on it which is sort of like the the ship to mass in their sales so just a lot of things lined up kind of strangely initially and then what happened was he. They went through all this festival these festivals and celebrations and then Cook sailed away and that should have been the end of it he should have just sailed away that would be fine but his mast broke just offshore and he had to return and when he returned he wasn't supposed to return according to the legends. He wasn't supposed to come back until the next year. So people were confused by that and then there was an altercation. He died in the clash not long after he returned.

Can you give me a hint we could do with magnets, well, compass points north thanks to the pull of the earth's geomagnetic field. But what does that have to do with fish quite a lot? In fact, it turns out that sockeye salmon are also sensitive to the earth's magnetic pool. Scientists have discovered evidence showing that salmon use a nifty trick called geomagnetic imprinting to find their way home to their birth. Rivers geomagnetic imprinting how so salmon can detect the precise geomagnetic feel of rivers location, and memorize it to help them return later. How did the scientists figure that out on allies migration? Data for guys, salmon, born and British Cologne. Via's Fraser river, this fish, leave the river to spend their adult life in the north Pacific Ocean two years later, they returned to spawn. Here's the thing though. They either have to swim around the north or the south end of Vancouver island to get back. The number of salmon using the northern route as steadily increased over the last century. And the scientists figured out that the IRS shifting geomagnetic fields were involved. Let me guess the magnetic field at the mouth of the Fraser river used to line up with the southern route. But these days it coincides with the northern passage instead, you've got it. And that is why Simon is like a compass and uses yours magnetic field appointed self in the right direction and find its way home. This moment of science comes from Indiana University on the web as a moment science dot org. I'm Don glass, and I'm Yale Cassandra.
Climate Cast
Did climate change bankrupt an electric company?
"A warming north Pacific Ocean. So Michael has somebody who talks to a lot of climate scientists and follows. The news and the science and the solutions with climate change and has seen these extreme weather upticks in the past several years. I look at this. And you know, I'm thinking, okay, here we go. And I'm wondering as you look at this. What will you be watching for in the next few years? Well, I think the problem is only going to get worse. Right. And so we need to start really trying to get ahead of it. And think about how we can enjoy the enormous human progress we made in the twentieth century, right? In terms of how we live our lives, and the the in a way that is consistent with the changing physical risks that climate change is going to create for all of us, you know, in different ways, depending on where we live, but for all of us, and in California, you know, there's a there's a very interesting conversation starting to. Happen about how we operate the electric grid in these risky areas. Right. One assumption that many people have is at the electricity is almost always on. But in California in these risky places. People are becoming more open to the idea that the power is going to get turned off when the wind is blowing. And as a consequence of people are more interested in, you know, getting access maybe assistance with getting access to distributed energy, essentially, the backup power. So that they don't care when the greatest turned off. And that that that sort of chain changing how we? How we operate our physical infrastructure to take account up and how we construct our fiscal infrastructure to take account of the changing risks. It's going to be a really important part of how we avoid some of these worst impacts. But that's also going to be expensive. Right. It's it's gonna be. It's not free to have backup power, particularly in California. We all wanna have batteries and solar power. You know, no one wants to buy diesel generator. And and then might be illegal depending on where you are in California because of our real severe problems with air quality. So it's it's a it's I I think rethinking kind of our footprint on the earth, and how we interact with natural systems is going to be a really important part of sort of stepping out of the way stepping off the tracks. As the freight train is coming at us. And that's a conversation that starting in California and with respect to wildfire. Are in a very different way than for example. The conversation around sea level rise has happened. So far in California. Where are you see lots of local governments having, you know, climate adaptation conversations about sea level rise, even as they are permiting, lots of homes at sea level on the beach. And you know, there's not there's not action in words don't match up yet for C level. But for fire, I think that we're likely to see much more much, greater consistency. Just because people can't afford it anymore. Governments can't afford it. You know, even the state of California can't afford to to sustain these losses year on year. Well, and when a seventeen billion dollar corporation is brought to its knees by wildfires and climate change that will certainly get your attention to Michael Juarez, senior research scholar at Stanford woods institute for the environment. Great talk today. Thanks for sharing your insight on climate cast. It's my pleasure. Thanks for having me on.
