Podcast appearances and mentions of David Pearson

It's February of 1980, and Dale Earnhardt is hungry to return to victory lane. The Osterlund-2 car hasn't brought home a win since David Pearson filled in for Dale at the Southern 500 the previous year. Plus, with a new contract and sponsorship comes expectations, so needless to say, he's eager to hold up his end of the bargain. Thankfully, he won't have to wait long, as he overcomes adversity at Atlanta for his first speedway win and follows it up with a repeat at Bristol. He quickly goes from a potential flash-in-the-pan, one-time winner to etching his name into the NASCAR history books.But racing is a humbling sport, and his jubilation won't last long. More engine problems and a lack of speed would relegate him back to the middle of the pack, and that pressure to perform would build up again. Unfortunately, this time, the pressure pushes Dale to make a blunderous mistake on the opening lap of the spring Martinsville event, and he has a run-in with a fella you never want to cross: King Richard Petty.

This week, we're going to share stories of run-ins that Richard Petty and David Pearson had with OTHER drivers, including Ned Jarrett, Bobby Allison and Tim Richmond.

Another year, another scrapbook. Dale Earnhardt Jr. is back on his quest to learn the origins of his father's legendary NASCAR career, and in this season of Becoming Earnhardt, he is unpacking the 1980 season. With the help of some family scrapbooks and his personal collection of racing artifacts, Dale Jr. is seeking to gain a deeper understanding of who Dale Earnhardt was before his seven championships and numerous wins.In the first episode of this season, we set the scene of 1980, both in the world of motorsports and the world at large. The star of our story, Dale Earnhardt, is fresh off winning the NASCAR Cup Rookie of the Year in 1979, ready to take on the mainstays of stock car racing with his Osterlund Racing crew. His path to stardom goes through the legends of the day, such as Richard Petty, Cale Yarborough, and David Pearson, but with veteran crew chief Jake Elder atop the pit box, Dale is feeling confident in his chances. The goal is a season championship ring, but before he can get there, he will have to weather the storms of competition, attrition, and personality.This episode of Becoming Earnhardt is brought to you by Bass Pro Shops.

In this podcast special we speak with two energy experts Rhys Stanwix and David Pearson. The cost of energy has dominated our own far-from-expert musings for the last few weeks. So we thought it might be an idea to pull in some expertise for a special about district heating, locational pricing, why we are stuck with such high prices, poor grid connections ,the march of the pylons across much of north eastern Scotland. Do we need the better connectivity or is this just horsing Scottish renewable energy south? We tackle all these questions, and more, in an in depth and highly informative special. ★ Support this podcast ★

This week in the first of what will be three installments, Sandy Jones remembers Jimmy "Smut" Means, the LONG road home from Pocono, his stint with D.K. Ulrich, and going to school at Junior Johnson University, where he was the new kid in Ingle Hollow … and treated like it.   We then tackle the April 3, 1980 edition of Grand National Scene.   Dale Earnhardt wins his second race in a row, early in his sophomore season. The win comes at Bristol, where he'd scored the FIRST victory of his Winston Cup career the year before.   Donnie Allison parts ways with Hoss Ellington, and there's speculation on who might go into the seat.

Helping students to understand what they read is one of the most central academic aims of school. No matter what subject you're teaching, students' reading comprehension likely plays a big role in their success in your classroom.Back in 1992, Dr. P. David Pearson and others identified six strategies that proficient readers consistently use as they read: using schema, inferring, questioning, determining importance, visualizing, and synthesizing. Explicitly teaching these strategies can improve students' comprehension. The question is, how can these strategies be taught in a way that students can easily connect with?Today, we'll hear from teacher and education consultant Tanny McGregor. In this excerpt from her book Comprehension Connections, Tanny focuses on one of the slipperiest strategies: inferring.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
