Can we predict evolutionary outcomes if we know starting conditions? Do the products of evolution in nature differ from those studied in well-controlled lab experiments? On this episode, we talk to Katie Peichel, head of the Division of Evolutionary Ecology at the University of Bern, Switzerland, and Andrew Hendry, professor in the Department of Biology at McGill University, Canada. Katie and Andrew are part of a massive research team working on the evolution of threespine sticklebacks as they are reintroduced into lakes in Alaska. Sticklebacks have been a favorite species for evolutionary biologists since almost the origins of modern evolutionary theory. Traits like spine size and lateral plate armor evolve rapidly when populations colonize new habitats, leading populations to barely resemble one another. Unlike traditional evolutionary experiments, which try to infer what occurred in the past, the Alaska project is tracking in unparalleled detail changes in the phenotypes and genotypes of fish that went into each lake population. We talk to Katie and Andrew about the origins of this incredible project, the pros and cons of different approaches to studying evolution, and the need for long-term experimental studies of evolution in the wild. This is the first of a series of episodes we will be doing on the Alaskan research project, so stay tuned! Cover art: Keating Shahmehri

Homer-based author Tom Kizzia is most well-known for his best-selling 2013 book Pilgrim's Wilderness, which was chosen by the New York Times as the best true crime book set in Alaska. Kizzia moved to Homer in the mid-70s where he took over the Homer News. In the early 80s, he was hired by the Anchorage Daily News and while working for that paper he wrote a series of stories under the title, "North Country Journal.” That project required Kizzia to travel to small Alaskan villages off the road system and report back. In 1991 he expanded some of those stories into his first book, The Wake of the Unseen Object: Travels through Alaska's Native Landscapes. In 2021 the book celebrated its 30th anniversary and was reprinted by the University of Alaska Press. We are discussing that book today. Tom will be back later this year to discuss Pilgrim's Wilderness and his most recent book Cold Mountain Path, for which he was named 2022 Historian of the Year by the Alaska Historical Society. This interview was recorded via Zoom.

But with God's help , we executed a successful trip and in this episode we give you the full in-depth recap of the hunt. Enjoy!

Governor Mike Dunleavy slams President Biden over his recent action to cancel oil and gas leases in an Alaskan federal wildlife refuge that were awarded to the state. The Alaskan Governor says that Biden “is knowingly and willingly is breaking the law, because this bill was passed by Congress in 2017, that required acres to be sold as part of the the Tax Act, they know it's illegal, they know they can't just willingly violate the congressional action, a law. They're just hoping to send a chill down the spine of investors, they're hoping to scare folks off. But I think more importantly, [the Biden administration] are really virtue signaling to their NGO's, that want a make-believe world in which I guess we power ourselves on love, but long story short, they know it's wrong.”The Governor says “there will be action, a court action, certainly from us, and some of the shareholders, the lease holders themselves. But in the end, all this is doing is it's going to end up taxing Americans.”See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
The Biden administration has scrapped oil leases in Alaska's Arctic National Wildlife Refuge on the basis of "legal deficiencies". The leases awarded by the Trump administration had been widely criticised by environmental groups. However, the White House's move comes after it approved an oil drilling project in another Alaskan reserve a few months ago.

Welcome to the daily304 – your window into Wonderful, Almost Heaven, West Virginia. Today is Wednesday, Sept. 6 TEASER (also use for daily recorded teaser for 10am social) West Virginia state park restaurants get a big boost from the Vagabond Chef ... a summer activity at Seneca Rocks has visitors looking down instead of up ... and Form Energy's $760 million battery plant looks to revitalize the Northern Panhandle ... on today's Daily304. #1 – From WV EXPLORER – Restaurants at state parks across West Virginia will begin sourcing local ingredients and refreshing their menus with native flair, thanks to the enlistment of a groundbreaking chef known for his exploration of native cuisine. Known widely as the “Vagabond Chef” and frequently seen on a motorcycle as he travels the state in search of native-food experiences, Matt Welsch has been enlisted to re-imagine the menus at West Virginia parks. Welsch's passion for culinary artistry and commitment to West Virginia's rich flavors have made him a prominent figure in the industry. Born and raised in Marshall County, he developed wanderlust early, leading him to travel globally. In 2014, he returned to his native West Virginia to found the Vagabond Kitchen, his Wheeling-based restaurant. “Chef Matt's unparalleled talent and engaging personality align perfectly with our vision to elevate the dining experiences in our state parks," Deputy-Chief of Parks Paul Redford.said. “I believe his contributions will undoubtedly add an extra sparkle to our restaurants.” Read more: https://wvexplorer.com/2023/08/30/west-virginia-state-park-restaurants-matt-welsch-vagabond-chef/ #2 – From GAZETTE-MAIL – With blade-like Tuscarora sandstone cliffs jutting 900 feet into the Pendleton County sky, the Monongahela National Forest's Seneca Rocks has long prompted visitors to look up while spending time at the iconic West Virginia landmark. But this summer, the U.S. Forest Service has given visitors a good reason to look down — and become fully immersed in the experience. Seneca Rocks Discovery Center has been hosting free snorkeling sessions in the North Fork of the Potomac River's South Branch, which flows past the base of the site's namesake. The program is designed to help participants get a more in-depth understanding of the importance of clean water and healthy streams as they get close-up views of fish, crawfish, and other forms of aquatic life. Mary Ann Nash and her sister Janet Donnelly said they wanted to try it out after having been snorkeling on their Alaskan cruise. “We saw more fish here and we loved seeing how the rock formation looked underwater,” Nash said.

“He who sees all beings in his Self and his Self in all beings, he never suffers; because when he sees all creatures within his true Self, then jealousy, grief and hatred vanish.” Welcome back to another episode of Made You Think! In this episode, we're covering The Upanishads, a collection of ancient Indian texts which explore the philosophical and spiritual teachings of Hinduism. These texts delve into the nature of reality and the self while emphasizing the importance of meditation, self-realization, and the pursuit of knowledge to achieve enlightenment. We cover a wide range of topics including: Consciousness and the interconnectedness of all beings Parallels between The Upanishads and the philosophies of Plato How cities differ in their homelessness approach Rationalism vs. intuition Our thoughts on the Twitter/X rebrand And much more. Please enjoy, and make sure to follow Nat, Neil, and Adil on Twitter and share your thoughts on the episode.

[5:30] We dive into discussion about consciousness, souls, and whether everyone is a part of the same entity. The book suggests that there is a right path to follow, but doesn't necessarily give concrete details about what is good vs. bad. [8:58] There are several upcoming sci-fi movies coming out based on books that we're fans of. Which ones are you most excited to see? [11:12] Old texts are like a game of telephone: While the message may only change slightly each time its told, it can add up to a large percent over a period of time. We also talk about Plato's early texts and how they poke at the ideas of Christianity, even before Christ. [16:04] Soma is a ritual drink referenced in many ancient Hindu texts as well as in The Upanishads, thought to possibly contain mushrooms or other psychedelic properties. [18:15] Calling an infinite being by a finite name. In Islam, there are 99 names for God so to capture all properties of God. [20:09] We talk about some of the main parallels between the book and the philosophies of Plato as well as the longevity of large ancient empires (ex: Persian Empire). How did news spread among such a wide area without the communication tools we have today? [26:02] The contrast of ancient artifacts you can find in European cities vs. US cities. Plus, a little tangent on the birthplace of Teddy Roosevelt! [27:47] How cities differ in their homelessness approach. [34:26] What is Georgism and how would it look if it were applied in the US? [36:32] ChatGPT's gives it's interpretation of Made You Think. We also reflect on books similar to The Upanishads that we have done in previous episodes. [40:48] Rationalism vs. intuition. We pose the question of whether the ideas from this book were independently developed or whether they sprout from other teachings. It may simply depend on what lens you're looking at it from. [45:18] Society's move to secularism and what may have repulsed people away from religion. [49:02] The world is full of mystery. Even someone with a rationalist approach would have to take a step back and recognize there are some things we just don't know. [51:32] Our opinions on the Twitter/X rebrand and how the algorithm can change based on who you're following. The impact of replies in amplifying your tweet. [57:27] What are the first tweets we see when we open the Twitter app? [1:01:31] The progression of spacecrafts and the advancement of automation systems. India's recent achievement of landing on the moon. [1:06:23] We conclude the episode with a talk on cod, Alaskan salmon, and the chicken farming industry. [1:11:55] That's it for this episode!

One of our more popular Alfacast guests, Reinette Senum, returns for another inspiring and entertaining interview. Whether braving the trans-Alaskan wilderness or the hostile political landscape as a California gubernatorial candidate Reinette never shies from a challenge. Today's roundtable will tackle a diversity of topics relative to the Global Coup, and 5th generational warfare tactics designed to grind humanity into submission. We'll dissect the why behind the systemic poisoning of both our internal and internal ecology, and how the human Spirit is the most powerful antedote. Why do even the most populist politicians give the most critical issues we face the widest berth? Reinette will bring us up-to-date with her proactive efforts behind GenSeven, Save Our Skies and organizations that are taking legal action against the most egregious geo-engineering perpetrators in the US. "I am running for Governor as an independent, common-sense candidate focused on core values and ethics, but in order to turn California around we are going to need an unprecedented effort by all of us working together. "Based upon the Nations of the Iroquois Confederacy that originally inspired our United States Constitution, we will use the Seven Generation principle as the primary guiding force of this campaign because all decisions made today should serve the next seven generations." ~ Reinette Senum We're back livestreaming to our regular YT channel this Thursday August 10 at 10 AM, while awaiting our final strike/ban so please support our efforts toward Freedom & Self-Determination by subscribing, joining in on the chat and giving us a like!

Welcome back to Trail Correspondents! This is Episode 11 which is all about the mental game required to attempt a thru-hike. Denial is not just a river in Africa and it's the stories we tell ourselves that frame our experience as heavenly or hellish. Now some relevant quotes: Henry Ford, “Whether you think you can or can't, you're right.” Sapiens author, Yuval Noah Harari, "Homo sapiens is a storytelling animal that thinks in stories rather than in numbers or graphs, and believes that the universe itself works like a story, replete with heroes and villains, conflicts and resolutions, climaxes and happy endings. When we look for the meaning of life, we want a story that will explain what reality is all about and what my particular role is in the cosmic drama. This role makes me a part of something bigger than myself, and gives meaning to all my experiences and choices.” And one more from our very own Zach Badger Davis on the topic, "What we call “reality” is really just an interpretation of events based on prior life experiences. So if reality is a byproduct of our perceptions, it's our job to rewire how we perceive tough times. We need to look at the glass as half full.” - from Appalachian Trails A thru hike is hard and not just in the ways that are obvious. Success requires a unity of the body, the spirit and THE MIND. Today we focus-in on the vital role that 3-pound mass of worn-weight between our ears plays in managing one of the most arduous tasks a person can assign themself. Let's get into it. In today's episode we hear from: Abbey Turnbull Harking from the South Coast of the UK, Abbey, aged 26, is swapping the rolling hills of the South Downs for the mountains of the Pacific Crest. A thru-hike of the JMT last year confirmed what she thought to be true – hiking from Mexico to Canada was her destiny for 2023. Loves good food and wine, Taylor Swift, American hospitality, and mountain vistas. Hates steep downhill slopes, her own unfortunate susceptibility to altitude sickness, and oatmeal. Abbigale (Abby) Evans Abby Evans (she/they) has a hankering to shave their head and hike the AT and now they will get to do both! They will be fulfilling their vagabond-dirtbag-poet dreams and aspire to one day become a creative writing professor. They'll be listening to seventies folk music and reflecting on their life as they wander through all the states they grew up in: they were born in Maryland, grew up in New Jersey and went to college at Virginia Tech. Abby is excited for this Bildungsroman and hopes to celebrate their 23rd birthday (August 24) near Maine. Iris Hartshorn A queer Alaskan, Iris, aka Panther, strives to build adventure into their life. The last years have been filled with world travel, skiing, packrafting, hiking, backpacking, vanlife, and epic trips across Alaska. This year's highlight is to walk from Mexico to Canada. Or, at least, just to keep walking somewhere. David Firari David “Good Soup” is excited to be sharing their northbound Appalachian Trail with you! This is their first ever backpacking trip and they hope all the reading and shakedown hikes they did pay off. In addition to being a novice backpacker, Good Soup is also managing a schedule of recurring medical treatments back home in Wisconsin in order to make this trip happen. Derek Witteman Derek is a 37 years young Northern California native, presently thriving in San Antonio, Texas. In no particular order he is a physician, veteran, hiker, nerd, and jokester. In his free time he enjoys taking selfies with wildlife, and thinking of spirit animals the represent his current mood. Eddie Arriola Eddie is a travel PTA, physical therapist assistant, who's been dreaming of the PCT for four years. In his spare time he enjoys photography, karaoke, and has other eclectic hobbies. He's originally from southern Arizona, Tucson, and is excited to get back to his primary partner and dogs after the trail. Elke Pabst Elke comes from Germany and wants to thruhike the AT with her dog Tilli. It is her first stay in the USA und doesn t hiking before. She has 3 nearly grown up sons and a husband who take care of everything while she is hiking with her 9 year old dog Tilli. Jake Landgraf Jake is currently on the AT attempting his first thru-hike. A proud Wisconsin resident, he enjoys beer, the outdoors, and the Green Bay Packers. On trail, Jake is known as “Radioface” and is obsessed with cosmic brownies. Follow Jake on his own, daily podcast at whereisjakeat.com. Mary Garcia Mary is a boring woman who likes to make various things, especially her hiking gear. She also has problems completing a thru hike. She did half the PCT in 2017 and a month on the CDT in 2022. Summer Midyett Summer has had an adventurous spirit since she was young, having spent her most of her childhood traveling around the world with her family. She's been dreaming of hiking the Pacific Crest Trail since 2020, when she moved to Oregon and fell in love with the mountains of the PNW. While it's certainly shaping up to be an interesting year for the PCT, she's excited to see whatever the trail has in store.

Let's talk about a comeback. Mark Landvik went from filming with the most prestigious film companies and riding some of the most dangerous terrain known to man to experiencing some of the deepest lows possible. Walking away from what was arguably the biggest snowboarding project in history was no easy choice and after listening to his reasons why; it all makes sense. Growing up with the scariest Alaskan peaks in his backyard, Mark Landvik became friends with fear. With a heart of gold and some of the funniest skits in snowboarding history, this multi-faceted and complex individual left an impact only some can dream of. We were left inspired and had a greater understanding of the haman condition after hearing his story and we hope the same for you. Join us as we sit down and dive into one of the most heartfelt comeback stories we've ever heard on this week's episode of the Bomb Hole!
Click here to sign up for a free webinar on Thursday, September 7th at Noon Eastern called, "Three Strategic Steps to Land Your Dream Job Before the Year Ends."Ever been on an Alaskan cruise? I have, and amidst the breathtaking glaciers and captivating wildlife, one thing stood out - entitlement. Do you know that narcissistic trait that makes people think the world owes them? We'll be taking a hard look at that, recognizing its presence in ourselves and others. My personal experience with an entitlement-induced situation on the cruise will leave you stunned!But let's not stop there! Entitlement isn't just a vacation issue, it's an everyday struggle in our workplaces too. Ever felt you deserved more - a promotion, a salary hike, flexible work arrangements? We're confronting this entitlement mentality and how it shapes our professional lives. You'll learn about how company policies and procedures can influence employee entitlement and why an open talk with your supervisor may just be the solution for a better work-life balance. Trust me, this is a conversation you won't want to miss!Support the showThank you for listening to The Mid-Career GPS Podcast. Please leave a rating and review on Apple Podcasts here.

Julia Coronado, president and founder of MacroPolicy Perspectives, says relief and uncertainty were in the air at last week’s Jackson Hole Economic Symposium. While signs point to positive progress when it comes to inflation and resilience, economists are still cautious. Plus, an oversupply of salmon in Alaskan fisheries has been bad for business.

Countries Seek To Return To The MoonOn Wednesday, the Indian space agency ISRO celebrated as its Chandrayaan-3 craft successfully made a soft landing at the lunar south pole. This is the first mission to explore the region around the moon's southern pole, and a major success for ISRO. The mission plans to use a robotic rover to conduct a series of experiments over the course of about 2 weeks, largely centered around the availability of water and oxygen-containing materials.Less than a week earlier, a Russian craft, Luna-25, crashed onto the moon. It would have been Russia's first moon landing in 47 years. The cause of the crash is not yet known. Maggie Koerth, science journalist and editorial lead for CarbonPlan, joins guest host Flora Lichtman to talk about the two lunar missions and whether the flurry of activity signals a new space race.They'll also discuss other stories from the week in science, including a new analysis of the Y chromosome, work on the camouflage skin of the hogfish, and a setback in a mission to clear up space junk. What's The Human Cost Of Alaska's Mineral Boom?A dusting of snow clings to the highway as Barbara Schuhmann drives around a hairpin curve near her home in Fairbanks, Alaska. She slows for a patch of ice, explaining that the steep turn is just one of many concerns she has about a looming project that could radically transform Alaskan mining as the state begins looking beyond oil.Roughly 250 miles to the southeast, plans are developing to dig an open-pit gold mine called Manh Choh, or “big lake” in Upper Tanana Athabascan. Kinross Alaska, the majority owner and operator, will haul the rock on the Alaska Highway and other roads to a processing mill just north of Fairbanks. The route follows the Tanana River across Alaska's interior, where spruce-covered foothills knuckle below the stark peaks of the Alaska Range. Snowmelt feeds the creeks that form a mosaic of muskeg in nearby Tetlin National Wildlife Refuge, a migration corridor for hundreds of bird species.To read the full article, visit sciencefriday.com. Salmon Flourish After Mine Damage Restored In AlaskaOn Friday, July 28, there were hundreds of juvenile salmon clustered in a pool, in clear water surrounded by a bank of fresh woody debris. Not 100 yards away, a spinning drum processed sediment to extract gold.This land is managed by a mining company, but it's also the site of a major stream restoration project. Thousands of salmon are returning to this stream in Hope, more than 100 years after aggressive gold mining affected the path of the river. The project to restore Resurrection Creek has brought together a coalition of stakeholders, including the present-day mining company that occupies the site.The restoration of Resurrection Creek began in the early 2000s. The goal was to correct habitat damage caused by historic mining.More than 100 years ago, heavy mining activity in the gold rush town affected the stream pattern, turning it from a meandering creek to a straight ditch. Jim Roberts is vice president of Hope Mining Company, and he said hydraulic mining in the early 1900s fundamentally changed the waterway.To read the full article, visit sciencefriday.com. All About Sea OttersLast month, a rowdy sea otter was stealing surfboards off the coast of Santa Cruz California, biting chunks out of surfboards, and even catching a few waves. It's rare for a sea otter to get so close to humans in the wild. Authorities are trying to capture the otter, named 841, for her safety and that of the surfers. But, a month later, she remains at large. Guest host Flora Lichtman talks with Jessica Fujii, sea otter program manager at the Monterey Bay Aquarium to get the 411 about Otter 841, and talk all things sea otter—including their sophisticated use of tools, carrying food in their armpits, and busting myths about hand holding.
