The U.S. Forest Service is struggling to cope with an increase in wildfires, as cuts under the Trump administration hit home.

80 years ago, Smokey the Bear was mostly talking about campfire safety. Now? Things are a little different.Forest fires have always been a normal part of our landscape – and a tool used by human civilizations for millennia.But as climate change makes our landscapes hotter and drier, wildfires are getting bigger and more destructive. Fire consumed 8.9 million acres across the U.S. last year. The LA County fires this January are the costliest so far, with some estimates putting the total close to $250 billion in damages.We discuss how we can better adapt to living with massive fires and how we should think about fighting – and preventing – them.Want to support 1A?

Evangelos Marinakis is still making headlines as Nottingham Forest released a statement on social media about the seriousness of Taiwo Awoniyi's injury suffered at the weekend. But does it provide a suitable reason for him storming the pitch after the 2-2 draw with Leicester? Elsewhere, Everton are allowing Goodison Park to keep hosting football. The club have confirmed their women's team is set to play their games at the iconic ground, but is the news as good as it seems? And finally, Manchester United have revealed that they won't host a trophy parade if they win the Europa League.

Penn State is behind its peers when it comes to commercializing its research. Voters will soon head to the polls in the first round of elections for local offices. Primary elections for judges, mayors, school directors and some election workers are on May 20. Secretary of State Al Schmidt says turnout is traditionally low for local elections even though they offer more tangible impact for voters. Pennsylvania’s neighboring states, New Jersey and Delaware are among 17 states [along with the District of Columbia] that are suing the Trump administration over wind energy. Firefighters battled two forest fires for two weeks recently in Cumberland County's Michaux State Forest. Providing more details and context is Mike Kern, the state's Forest Fire Protection Chief, within the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources' Bureau of Forestry.

AROUND 6 A.M. on the morning of Sept. 9, 1942, Forest Service lookout Howard Gardner heard the sound of an approaching airplane. Peering out into the South Coast pre-dawn gloaming light, Gardner made out a small seaplane, heading toward him, flying low, circling. Showtime! This was what Gardner was here for, bundled up in the little Forest Service firewatch lookout shack atop Mt. Emily. Nine months into the Second World War, Gardner's duties had expanded a bit from what they had been a year before. Now he was looking not only for smoke from forest fires, but for enemy airplanes. And right then, that's exactly what he was looking at. (Brookings, Curry County; 1940s) (For text and pictures, see https://offbeatoregon.com/2402a-0907b.glovebox-bomb-031.634.html)

Pennsylvania’s Republican senators, joined by five Democrats, are trying to ban transgender athletes from participating in school or collegiate sports. The Senate - after 90 minutes of heated debate - voted to pass the bill despite indications it will not be picked up in the House. Pennsylvania House Democrats are planting the seed for a recreational marijuana program. The adult-use bill passed out of committee by a narrow 14 to 12 vote. A story on the gunfire which broke out at a Donald Trump rally in western Pennsylvania last summer is the recipient of journalism's top award. Two hospital systems that serve central Pa. have indicated they will no longer offer gender-affirming care to children and teens after President Donald Trump signed an executive order in January. Penn State Health and UPMC said they will comply with the executive order that said any health systems that provide gender-affirming care for children under 19 years old would lose federal funding. In response to the February shooting at York's UPMC Memorial Hospital, the state House of Representatives has passed a bill intended to curb workplace violence in healthcare facilities. Two weeks after they began, a pair of wildfires in Michaux State Forest are considered fully extinguished. Some encouraging news for a 20-year-old who fell from the top of a 21-foot-high wall onto the warning track at PNC Park during a Pittsburgh Pirates game last week: Lavan Markwood has taken his first steps since the accident.

The recent fires in Southern California are being estimated as the most costly natural disaster ever - at $250 billion so far. One group says they were caused and worsened by Climate Change. Another says Directed Energy Weapons. Disagree with either, or ask for proof, and condemnation is often the response. Other times evidence is produced: a blue VW bus and trash cans, or a fire chart of increasing wildfires and burned acres. In both cases, however, context is not provided. For every blue trash can left standing, hundreds more were burned. For every increase in fires or acres burned there was also a previous decrease that allowed for a perceived increase - such data is also selective, cutting out anything prior to 1983. Whatever the cause there is no debating that the mass majority of “unnatural” fires in general, but specifically in California, are caused by humans, as CNN reported: “About 95% of fires in California are caused by humans, whether through an intentional act of arson, a downed power line, or a backyard barbecue party or fireworks celebration gone awry, Cal Fire officials said.” In cases of arson, California law enforcement have arrested multiple people for starting recent additional fires, including a woman who said “she enjoyed causing chaos and destruction.”-FREE ARCHIVE (w. ads)SUBSCRIPTION ARCHIVEX / TWITTER FACEBOOKMAIN WEBSITECashApp: $rdgable EMAIL: rdgable@yahoo.com / TSTRadio@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tst-radio--5328407/support.

If a fire is in a forest and nobody is there to see it then does it burn? The recent fires in Southern California are being estimated as the most costly natural disaster ever - at $250 billion so far. One group says they were caused and worsened by Climate Change. Another says Directed Energy Weapons. Disagree with either, or ask for proof, and condemnation is often the response. Other times evidence is produced: a blue VW bus and trash cans, or a fire chart of increasing wildfires and burned acres. In both cases, however, context is not provided. For every blue trash can left standing, hundreds more were burned. For every increase in fires or acres burned there was also a previous decrease that allowed for a perceived increase - such data is also selective, cutting out anything prior to 1983. Whatever the cause there is no debating that the mass majority of “unnatural” fires in general, but specifically in California, are caused by humans, as CNN reported: “About 95% of fires in California are caused by humans, whether through an intentional act of arson, a downed power line, or a backyard barbecue party or fireworks celebration gone awry, Cal Fire officials said.” In cases of arson, California law enforcement have arrested multiple people for starting recent additional fires, including a woman who said “she enjoyed causing chaos and destruction.”-FREE ARCHIVE (w. ads)SUBSCRIPTION ARCHIVEX / TWITTER FACEBOOKWEBSITEPAYPALCashApp: $rdgable EMAIL: rdgable@yahoo.com / TSTRadio@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tst-radio--5328407/support.

I briefly discuss the nonsensical process of the cabinet hearings, but how a trained eye and a knowledgeable person can read between the lines and see through the lies on all sides.  I discuss the document Forest Fire as a Military Weapon and its current application; I discuss a few education stories in the news and play a testimony of what it's like being awake.
