Clever Confidential is Clever's offshoot series, where we dig into the darker side of design - the shadowy, sometimes sordid tales hiding under a glossy topcoat of respectable legacy.On the afternoon of August 14th, 1915, fire ripped through Taliesin, the Spring Green, Wisconsin home of the world's most famous architect, Frank Lloyd Wright. When the smoke cleared seven people would be dead, murdered with an axe at the hands of Julian Carlton, a servant of Wright's. But why? The motive remains a mystery to this day. But there are so many other questions. Why does seemingly everyone know Frank Lloyd Wright but strangely, very few seem to know this much darker side of his story? In this episode we'll investigate all of that as well as the great state of Wisconsin, Wright's never-ending battle with societal norms, and the interplay between critics and creative professionals.Images, links and more about Frank Lloyd Wright and the Murders at Taliesin!Special thanks to our sponsor, Porkbun!

Supermassive black holes exist at the center of most galaxies, and modern telescopes continue to observe them at surprisingly early times in the Universe's evolution. It's difficult to understand how these black holes were able to grow so big so rapidly. But with the discovery of a low-mass supermassive black hole feasting on material at an extreme rate, seen just 1.5 billion years after the Big Bang, astronomers now have valuable new insights into the mechanisms of rapidly growing black holes in the early Universe. In this podcast, Hyewon Suh and Julia Scharwächter discuss the discovery of LID-568, a black hole that is feeding at 40 times the theoretical limit.   Bios: Rob Sparks is in the Communications, Education and Engagement group at NSF's NOIRLab in Tucson, Arizona.   Hyewon Suh's research mainly focuses on the multi-wavelength studies of Active Galactic Nuclei and their host galaxies to understand the growth of black holes in the context of galaxy evolution. While the deep, large-area extragalactic surveys have greatly enriched our knowledge of the early universe, there are several missing pieces in the understanding of the formation and the growth of supermassive black holes. She is interested in the most energetic and obscured phase of accreting black holes to explore the formation of the first accreting black holes, and to provide the crucial observational constraints on a hidden phase in the early universe.   Julia Scharwächter's main research area is the (co-)evolution of galaxies and their supermassive black holes. She is interested in studying the role of AGN feedback and the nature of black hole mass-host galaxy scaling relations. Her observational projects mostly aim at spatially resolved studies of galaxy nuclei in the nearby Universe. She uses 3D spectroscopy in the optical, near-infrared, and at millimeter wavelengths to probe the stellar and gas component in galaxies, with a special focus on gas-kinematic black hole mass measurements and gas excitation/kinematics around AGN. She is also interested in galaxy dynamics and galaxy merger simulations using N-body/SPH codes.   Links: NOIRLab Press Release: https://noirlab.edu/public/news/noirlab2427/ NOIRLab social media channels can be found at https://www.facebook.com/NOIRLabAstro https://twitter.com/NOIRLabAstro https://www.instagram.com/noirlabastro/ https://www.youtube.com/noirlabastro   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!

*Sex Not Gender: Listen in as host Doug McBurney welcomes Nicole McBurney on to help us understand how linguists determine that words have a common ancestor, (and how Sal Cordova proved that proteins don't), and how "sex" became "gender" and what's wrong with all that. The Gay 90's: We'll examine etymology and biology and how back in the 1990s the western world saw a full court press to normalize perversion and corrupt the language. Losing the Culture War: In 2009 Bob Enyart interviewed one of the devil's more productive culture warriors; unrepentant sodomite Wayne Besen. You'll hear how few allegedly "christian" leaders have stood, (and how long they've been laying down) against the tide of sexual immorality that brought in the trannies and the child molesters. From Eden to Revelation: Look in on the history of feminism, paganism, divination & witchcraft, and hear how the more and more corrupt the world becomes, the more and more words are used to paper it over.

We've got two new options for NASA's Mars Sample Return Mission, an explanation for why Mars can get planet-wide dust storms, stealing secrets from Conan the Bacterium, and we could see a really bright comet next week.

From April 27, 2021. The biggest mass extinction event on Earth occurred at the end of the Permian period, resulting in the extinction of 95% of marine life and 80% of terrestrial life. Now, scientists have found that the terrestrial portion of the event lasted nearly ten times as long as the ocean version. Plus, a spaghettified star, the search for Moon Trees, all about Mars, and new works on dark matter and dark energy.   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!

David Sereda has studied Meditation, Yoga, Vegetarian diet, world religions, ancient history, Physics, Math, Astronomy, Alternative Zero Point Energies for over 40 years. He took physics in school to the college level and continued his studies ever since. In 1990, David began working with MIT physicist Dr. Bogdan Maglich and teamed up with him to promote and fund Maglich's non-radioactive fusion power technology. David Studied fusion power for over 10 years. Then Maglich appointed David as Director of the Los Angeles Based "Tesla Foundation" under which David became a Tesla Technology expert and spoke in the united States Congress with Maglich and Company on Fusion Power. Next, Maglich appointed David as President of HiEnergy Microdevices, a new company (US Defense Contractor) using novel technology to detect buried landmines and to find hidden explosives and other contraband. In the year 2006, David Sereda developed a technology not unlike a small nuclear fusion chamber to fuse frequency programs into crystals, and found that these frequencies could be stored in a crystal lattice if the secret to opening the lattice and closing it could be found. He found it worked and the thousands of people who wore the pendants treated with the etchnology could feel the vibrations and confirmed this on human energy field aura camera testing! This session was recorded on 5-21-23 David's website: https://www.davidsereda.co/ I have a couple of the Flower of life necklaces and the Lightstream Wand: The Great Pyramid Music scale video: He has a 3 year 25 week each year toning mediation course which I highly recommend called Quantum Regenesis.

Jupiter's Trojan asteroids lead and follow the giant planet around the Sun occupying stable locations where Jupiter and the Sun's gravity balance each other. Humans have discovered only a tiny fraction of the million of them larger than one kilometer or about 3,300 feet in diameter that are suspected to exist. Upon NASA's selection of the Lucy mission, Dr. Harold Levison of the Southwest Research Institute in Boulder, Colorado commented “Because the Trojans are remnants of the primordial material that formed the outer planets, they hold vital clues to deciphering the history of the solar system. Lucy, like the human fossil for which it is named, will revolutionize the understanding of our origins.”
