This week the U.S. Air Force celebrated its birthday, marking 75 years since it gained its hard-won independence from the U.S. Army. This independence remains not only about who is in command of who, but perhaps more importantly it is also about identity and culture. What lessons can the newest branch of the military, the U.S. Space Force, take from the Air Force experience to launch itself into an independent trajectory? To get the answers, Laura Winter is joined by Michael Hankins, Curator for U.S. Air Force, Navy, and Marine Corps post-World War II Aviation, Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum; Brian Laslie, Command Historian and Associate Professor Department of History, United States Air Force Academy; and M.V. “Coyote” Smith, Associate Professor, Strategic Space Studies, Department of Space Power, United States Air Force Air Command and Staff College.

In this week's #Forum2000online Chat, Vladimir Rouvinski, Director of the Laboratory of Politics and International Relations (PoInt) and Associate Professor (Department of Political Studies) at Icesi University in Cali, Colombia, joined Martin Ehl, a journalist and Chief Analyst at Hospodářské noviny (ihned.cz), to talk about the Russia-China relationship in the current context. Who makes the rules? Is there a natural alliance between Russia and China against the United States? What is China watching with special attention in the Ukraine?. In the interview, Mr. Rouvinski says that Russia will become much closer to China because there are only few other options left, but "It depends on China. China will be the actor that will be defining the rules of the game, the rules of coexistence between China and Russia. Not Russia". Mr. Rouvinski explains the complexity of the relations between both powers and also offers a brief analysis of their influence in Latin America and in the world. According to Vladimir Rouvinski, you will learn that: Russia will become much closer to China because there are only few other options left, but China will be defining the rules of the game, the rules of coexistence between China and Russia, not Russia.  China does not want to rush and make any mistakes that may place into question China's relation with the West. China is taking advantage of Russia's weaker position, especially in the field of energy. Many experts believe that there is a natural alliance between Russia and China against the United States, but there are some factors that fuel certain fears and rivalries between the two powers. China is watching very carefully the performance of Russian weaponry in the Ukrainian theater. Beijing is very interested in how Russian weapons, especially the new ones, perform in a real war. There are many sectors of the economy where China can help Russia to overcome the Western pressure of the sanctions without being hit back by the US sanctions. There is a worrying alliance between Russia and China against the global liberal order and democracy. Both authoritarian regimes are seen as alternative models to liberal democracy. The interview was recorded on March 30, 2022, and moderated by Martin Ehl, a journalist and Chief Analyst at Hospodářské noviny (ihned.cz).

Today I am stoked to have a returning guest, Dr. Catherine Lebel. We get down to science today. But don't worry, I help make this accessible.  We are talking about a recent FASD research paper she wrote and a current study she is working on.Catherine Lebel, PhD is a Principal Investigator,  and Associate Professor | Department of Radiology | University of Calgary"My research uses magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to study brain development in children and adolescents. Using a variety of MRI techniques, I study how brain structure and function change with age, or in response to treatments and interventions. I am specifically interested in how brain maturation and brain plasticity are related to cognition and behaviour, and how these relationships may be different in children with developmental disorders. The aim of my research is to better understand brain changes, with the ultimate goal of providing earlier identification and more effective treatments for children with developmental disorders."While this research is valuable, and while the information is interesting, it doesn't necessarily mean it will change practice by itself. But it can be a building block and I felt that people would be interested in finding out what is going on in the research field.And that is why I wanted to bring this information to you.Research Paper:White matter alterations in young children with prenatal alcohol exposure Research Study:Brain Development in Children and Youth with Prenatal Alcohol Exposure (PAE)Support the show (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/FASDSUCCESS)

Dr Michelle Arrow, Associate Professor Department of Modern History, Politics and International Relations Macquarie University, joins Michael with a dire warning that Australian treasures are on the brink of destruction.   When the DVD format was introduced, the VCR quickly became obsolete which made all of those VHS tapes, which were lovingly compiled, become unplayable virtually overnight.   ‘This is the dilemma that faces the National Archives of Australia. It is stuck, metaphorically, in the VHS era, and without an urgent injection of funds, it will be trapped there’, writes Dr Arrow.   ‘It has a vast collection of historical records: not just documents and files, but tape recordings, films, and television programs. And much of it is on the brink of destruction.’   ‘If rapid action is not taken to convert all the archives’ audio visual material to secure, digital formats, in 2025, it will topple off what archivists call the “digital cliff”. A combination of deterioration and outmoded technology will conspire to destroy it.’ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Your Environment could be more important than Your DNA to Your Health Ted Smith PhD., is an associate professor of environmental medicine and deputy director of the Envirome Institute at the University of Louisville School of Medicine. Smith is also the director of the Envirome Institute's Center for Healthy Air, Water and Soil. Theodore R. Smith, Ph.D. Associate Professor Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology The human envirome is made up of all the environmental conditions that affect us. Both genetic and environmental factors contribute to a person's wellbeing and disease risk. Until now, the environmental effects on health has not been studied. There is no framework to understand our environment as a whole (the envirome) or the interactions between the natural, social, and personal domains. To understand how the environment increases or decreases risk for developing heart disease we must understand the impact the envirome and its specific domains have on health.Read the entire manuscript here. The envirome is made up of everything around us. Natural Environment: everything that is not man-made like the weather, mountains and rivers, and plants and animals. Social Environment: how we organize ourselves into a society and build cities. Personal Environment: the lives we to build for ourselves, where we live, what we eat, and whether we chose to exercise or smoke. The Envirome is made up of three inter-related types of environment – the natural, social, and personal domains of the external environment. Our characteristics come from interactions between our genes and our environments- both our envirome now and past enviromes that shaped our ancestors. The envirome shapes everything about a person, from their mental and physical development to disease risk and life span. Natural Environment The Natural environment includes cycles of night and day, rhythms of the seasons, altitude, latitude, and variations in exposure to sunshine and greenspaces profoundly affect human health and well-being. Social Environment The influence of the natural environment features is deeply transformed by urbanization through the social environment. The social environment includes the built environment, agricultural and industrial activities and pollution as well as culture, economic activities, and social networks. Through exposure to traffic, pollution, and occupational hazards, urbanization limits human health and creates disease risk. Moreover, large social networks cause disease inequities and health disparities by influencing access to healthcare, social cohesion, and socioeconomic status.  Personal Environment Within the social environment, individuals create personal environments through individual lifestyle choices that improve their status or provide protection from threatening natural and social influences. Every personal environment is different, characterized by income, education, and lifestyle choices relating to nutrition, physical activity, sleep, and the use of recreational drugs, alcohol, and tobacco.  Why it Matters The interactions between genetic and environmental factors enable human development and contribute to a person's wellbeing and disease risk. But, until now, how the environmental effects health has received little attention. Evaluation of environmental determinants of disease is limited by the lack of comprehensive omics approaches for integrating multiple environmental exposures. Hence, to understand the effects of the environment as a whole (envirome), it is important to delineate specific domains of the environment and to decipher the relationships between these domains, and how they individually and collectively affect human health. We are guided by a hierarchical model of the structure of the human envirome; defined by 3 consecutively nested domains, consisting of natural, social, and personal environments. Extensive evidence suggests that features of the natural environment such as sunlight, altitude, diurnal rhythms, vegetation, and biodiversity affect cardiovascular health. However, the effects of the natural environment are moderated by the social environment comprised of built environments, agricultural and industrial activities, pollutants and contaminants, as well as culture, economic activities, and social networks that affect health by influencing access to healthcare, social cohesion, and socioeconomic status. From resources available within society, individuals create personal environments, characterized by private income, wealth and education, and populated by behavioral and lifestyle choices relating to nutrition, physical activity, sleep, the use of recreational drugs, and smoking. An understanding of the interactions between different domains of the envirome and their integrated effects on cardiovascular health could lead to the development of new prevention strategies and deeper insights into etiologic processes that contribute to cardiovascular disease risk and susceptibility. Background and Context A conducive environment is essential for human health and well-being. It enables and orchestrates human development and it exerts a profound influence on human fitness and disease risk. But the human environment is complex; it includes not only the physical elements of geography and ecology, but also large social networks fashioned by unique combinations of history and culture. These components of the environment conform to a discernable structure that links discrete elements of the environment together. These features and the structure of environmental elements exert their influence on humans via their many interactive domains. Of these, nature is the most primordial domain of the human environment. Ecological features such as the cycles of night and day, the rhythms of the seasons, the gradations in altitude and latitude, and the variations in exposure to sunshine and greenspaces profoundly affect human health and well-being. In advanced human societies, the influence of these natural features is deeply transformed by urbanization. With its attendant exposures to traffic, pollution, and occupational hazards, urbanization limits human health and imposes disease risk. Moreover, by imparting variable socioeconomic status and by creating large social networks, these societies generate disease inequities and health disparities. Within these social networks; however, humans create unique personal environments populated by individual lifestyle choices to shield themselves from adverse social and natural influences or to enhance their positive impact. Hence, to understand, assess, and ameliorate the effects of the environment on health, it is critical not only to evaluate the impact of natural, social and personal domains of the environment, but to assess how these domains interact with each other and how they individually and collectively bear upon human health. Such integrative effects of the environment have not been evaluated before. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

More information >>> The Tune Farm is 260 acres with hay land, woodland and a beaver created wetland. Flint creek winds around and behind the farm flowing north to the Tennessee river -- which provides our area’s drinking water. They are bottomland. They flood. Historically, farmers and landowners destroy beaver dams on the creek because they flood working lands, keeping low land under water much of the year instead of just seasonally. The first farm decision they made was to give the beavers carte blanche and wait to see what happened. >>> Email us show ideas or interview requests to info@sustainable1000.com, Tweet us at @vannShane, IM on GTalk @ vannShane or call-in your questions or comments to (347)996-3601.
