This Day in Iowa Weather History In 1911, unseasonably cold air brought rain mixed with snow across northwestern Iowa. Most snow melted on contact, but some locations reported accumulations: 1 inch at Denison, 1.5 inches at Alta and Lamars, 2 inches at Algona, Mason City, New Hampton, Onawa, and Rockwell City, 2.5 inches at Rock Rapids, and 4 inches at Elma in Howard County. 7-Day Weather Forecast Showers and thunderstorms are possible today, but the weekend will bring pleasant, San Diego-like weather: sunny skies and highs in the 70s. A quieter weather pattern is expected to settle in. Climate Outlook 8–14 Days (May 8–14): Strong likelihood of above-normal temperatures. The eastern half of Iowa leans slightly below normal for precipitation, while the western half is near normal-overall, a little dry and definitely warm. 3–4 Weeks (May 10–23): The outlook leans warm with equal chances for precipitation. Precipitation remains difficult to forecast due to the spring transition. May Monthly Outlook: Most of Iowa is likely to be warmer than normal. Precipitation is split: the northeast leans slightly drier, while the southwest has equal chances for above, below, or normal precipitation. Recent Weather Impacts On Monday, Iowa experienced very windy conditions (gusts up to 70 mph in Ames) but no tornadoes. The severe weather event was well forecasted in terms of risk areas, but many Iowans did not experience significant storms, leading to a perception of overhype. The lack of severe storms in Iowa was attributed to a strong atmospheric cap, cloud cover, dust, and wind alignment that prevented updrafts, despite all other ingredients for severe weather being present. Specialty Crop Impacts Winter Rye: Beginning to flower across Iowa. Growers can terminate rye reliably by mowing and tilling at anthesis (pollen shed). One grower plans to mow and bale rye for weed-free straw mulch. Overwintered Flowers: Iceland poppies are starting to open; dianthus are looking good. More flower updates are expected next week, ahead of Mother's Day. Greenhouse Tomatoes: Ripe tomatoes are being harvested in greenhouses in Grinnell and likely at some auction houses. Garlic & Aster Yellows: Growers are on watch for aster yellows phytoplasma, which devastated garlic crops last year, especially in northeast Iowa and neighboring states. Recent lab tests found rotted garlic cloves infected with pythium and rhizoctonia, not aster yellows. The likely cause was winterkill due to low snow cover, not disease. Spring-planted garlic had much higher survival. Management Advice: Rogue out yellow, weak garlic plants now to prevent potential spread of aster yellows by leafhoppers. Mulch and snow cover help protect overwintered garlic. Soil Testing: New online and spreadsheet tools are available for interpreting soil test results and generating fertilizer recommendations. MASC Payments: A new round of Market Assistance for Specialty Crops (MASC) payments has been announced. Growers should check with their FSA office for eligibility.

One of Perry’s mentors say that the primary way we’re changed from inside out on our journey of faith is through daily repentance. Perry’s been wrestling with that in light of other scriptures that say otherwise and he bounces it off Jeremy. Bible questions answered by Jeremy in today’s episode! Dr. Jeremy Grinnell earned his PhD in Systematic Theology from Calvin Seminary in Grand Rapids, MI, and taught at a West Michigan seminary for 15 years. Hank asks, “God commands us to rest on the Sabbath. The Sabbath is literally Saturday. Am I disobeying God by resting on Sunday??” Dave asks, “Is baptism required for salvation?” Stephanie asks, “The Apostle’s Creed says ‘Jesus descended into hell.’ Did he really go to hell or was it the horror of the cross, of his separation from God that was considered hell?” Jim asks, “Jesus always made glorifying His Father the priority. At His death He says ‘Now glorify the Son.’ So, should we now be praying the Lord’s Prayer by saying, ‘Hallowed be your Names,’ since Jesus is now glorified with the Father?” And Scotts asks, “At our Maundy Thursday sermon this year, the pastor said ‘Jesus and his disciples likely did not eat lamb at His last supper, but just the bread and wine and bitter herbs.’ I’ve never heard that before. What are your thoughts Dr. J?”Donate to Moody Radio: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/morningshow/wgnbSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Even before the fall, evil was in the garden. Then evil became full blown after the fall. But even before all this, God had written the story’s ending—“All the sad things will come untrue.” So we need not despair because when the time is right we’ll catch up to the end God has already written! Dr. Jeremy Grinnell earned his Ph.D. in Systematic Theology from Calvin Seminary in Grand Rapids, MI, and taught theology at a West Michigan seminary for nearly 15 years. He joins us again to answer bible questions! Jeff asks the first question: “If God created Adam and Eve, and the creation was good, why was an evil serpent allowed in the garden to tempt them.” Which leads to Jeremy’s quote, “The ending is written, we just have to catch up to it!” Then, “Why was Jesus turning water in to wine his first miracle.” Next, “Hebrews 12 says that God disciplines his children. Jesus took our punishment, so why does he still discipline us??” Next, “How do I overcome my resentment. I feel like I’m a prisoner to it!“ Then Dave shares, “I've been in a deep valley of depression and anxiety. Is it wrong to take medicine for depression or anxiety? Is taking medicine evidence that I’m not trusting God enough?” Also, Ronda asks, “What, if anything, does the Bible say about suicide.” And last Lucy asks, “When Paul wrote about the resurrection was he aware of John’s revelation?” And “If Jesus is equal with the Father why does Paul write that one day Jesus will be subject to the Father?” These are incredible questions, from incredible listeners, with incredible answers.

Have you ever considered what it truly means to fear the Lord? Through the dramatic story of Elijah's showdown with the prophets of Baal, you will learn about the profound difference between worshiping the true God and the false gods that demand everything yet give nothing in return. You can expect to explore the concept of "holy indifference," where faithfulness to God transcends fear, leading you from terror to wisdom and ultimately to love. This journey invites you to reflect on what truly masters your heart and how the fear of the Lord can guide you to a deeper, more authentic relationship with Him.

Former Florida police investigator James Byrd-Williams, Sr. recounts the story of his son's murder in 2020. 44-year-old Michael Williams was an African-American man living in the mostly White college town of Grinnell, Iowa, to be near his ex-wife and kids. Occurring just weeks after the George Floyd incident, Michael Williams' body was found strangled and burned in a ditch outside of town. Three people were later convicted.J.B. expresses his frustration with the thoroughness of the investigation and the fact that officials and the NAACP—eager to avoid any media attention of the type recently seen in Minneapolis—denied it was a hate crime, and avoided the word 'lynching' in describing the homicide. UK newspaper The Guardian asked, “When is a lynching a lynching?”   Heroes Behind HeadlinesExecutive Producer Ralph PezzulloProduced & Engineered by Mike DawsonMusic provided by ExtremeMusic.com

The North American Model of Wildlife Conservation is a cornerstone of wildlife management and conservation efforts in the United States and Canada. This model has played a critical role in the conservation and sustainable management of wildlife populations, shaping conservation policies and practices not only in North America but also influencing global conservation strategies. This essay explores the history of the North American Model, its self-sufficient funding mechanisms, key founders, its influence on other countries, and modern applications. Historical Background The origins of the North American Model of Wildlife Conservation can be traced back to the late 19th and early 20th centuries, a period when unregulated hunting, habitat destruction, and market hunting had severely depleted wildlife populations. Prominent conservationists recognized the urgent need for a structured approach to wildlife conservation. Theodore Roosevelt, a former U.S. president and passionate outdoorsman, played a pivotal role in the conservation movement, establishing national parks and wildlife refuges. George Bird Grinnell, an influential naturalist and editor, co-founded the Boone and Crockett Club with Roosevelt in 1887, advocating for the protection of wildlife and their habitats. Aldo Leopold, often regarded as the father of wildlife ecology, furthered the cause with his seminal work "A Sand County Almanac," emphasizing the ethical responsibility humans have toward the natural world. The conservation movement gained momentum with the establishment of the Boone and Crockett Club, which was instrumental in advocating for wildlife protection laws and the creation of protected areas. The passage of the Lacey Act in 1900, which prohibited the interstate transport of illegally taken wildlife, marked a significant legislative milestone in conservation history. Self-Sufficient Funding Mechanisms One of the unique aspects of the North American Model is its self-sufficient funding mechanisms, primarily through the "user-pays, public-benefits" approach. This system ensures that those who utilize wildlife resources contribute directly to their conservation. The model's funding mechanisms are largely derived from hunting and fishing licenses, permits, and excise taxes on hunting, fishing, and boating equipment. The Pittman-Robertson Wildlife Restoration Act of 1937 and the Dingell-Johnson Sport Fish Restoration Act of 1950 are pivotal in this funding strategy. These acts impose excise taxes on firearms, ammunition, fishing tackle, and related equipment, with the collected funds being allocated to state wildlife agencies for conservation efforts. This financial framework has generated billions of dollars for wildlife conservation, habitat restoration, and research, creating a sustainable source of funding that has enabled continuous and effective wildlife management. Key Founders The success of the North American Model can be attributed to the collaborative efforts of key founders and various stakeholders, including government agencies, non-profit organizations, and the public. The dedication of early conservationists like Theodore Roosevelt, George Bird Grinnell, and Aldo Leopold laid the foundation for modern wildlife conservation. Roosevelt's establishment of national parks and refuges, Grinnell's advocacy through the Boone and Crockett Club, and Leopold's pioneering ecological research and writings all contributed to the development and implementation of the model. These visionaries recognized the intrinsic value of wildlife and natural habitats and worked tirelessly to ensure their protection for future generations. Government agencies such as the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and state wildlife agencies, alongside their Canadian counterparts, have played crucial roles in implementing conservation programs, enforcing regulations, and managing wildlife habitats. Non-profit organizations, including the Boone and Crockett Club, the Wildlife Management Institute, Ducks Unlimited, and the National Wildlife Federation, have been instrumental in advocacy, education, and funding for conservation projects. Hunters and anglers, as primary funders of conservation through license fees and excise taxes, have also been pivotal in supporting and promoting sustainable wildlife management practices. Influence on Other Countries The principles and practices of the North American Model have had a significant impact on wildlife conservation efforts worldwide. Countries in Africa, Europe, and Asia have looked to this model as a blueprint for developing their own conservation strategies. The emphasis on sustainable use, science-based management, and the involvement of local communities has resonated globally. Learn more Here: https://youtu.be/yEmr1zGwi3g  For instance, the community-based natural resource management (CBNRM) programs in southern Africa draw heavily from the North American Model. These programs empower local communities to manage and benefit from wildlife resources, promoting conservation through sustainable use and local stewardship. By adopting the user-pays approach and involving local stakeholders, these programs have successfully balanced conservation goals with the economic needs of communities. Modern Applications In contemporary times, the North American Model continues to evolve to address emerging conservation challenges. Climate change, habitat fragmentation, and biodiversity loss require adaptive management strategies and innovative solutions. Urban wildlife management has become increasingly important as urban areas expand, necessitating programs focused on coexisting with urban wildlife, reducing human-wildlife conflicts, and preserving urban green spaces. Modern technology, including GPS tracking, remote sensing, and data analytics, enhances wildlife monitoring, research, and management, providing valuable insights into wildlife behavior, habitat use, and population dynamics. Conclusion The North American Model of Wildlife Conservation stands as a testament to the power of collaborative, science-based, and sustainably funded conservation efforts. Its historical roots, innovative funding mechanisms, and the dedication of key founders and stakeholders have not only preserved North America's rich wildlife heritage but also served as an inspiration for global conservation initiatives. As we face new environmental challenges, the principles of the North American Model continue to guide and inform effective and adaptive wildlife conservation strategies.  

Just when you thought you were out, The Daily Poem pulls you back in–to poems about movies. Today's charming and earnest poem imitates the medium it describes (film) by swapping memorable images and sensations for linear propositions. Happy reading.Amy Clampitt was born and raised in New Providence, Iowa. She studied first at Grinnell College in Grinnell, Iowa, and later at Columbia University and the New School for Social Research in New York City. Throughout the 1940s and 1950s, Clampitt held various jobs at publishers and organizations such as Oxford University Press and the Audubon Society. In the 1960s, she turned her attention to poetry. In 1974 she published a small volume of poetry titled Multitudes, Multitudes; thereafter her work appeared frequently in the New Yorker. Upon the publication of her book of poems The Kingfisher in 1983, she became one of the most highly regarded poets in America. Her other collections include A Silence Opens (1994), Westward (1990), What the Light Was Like (1985), and Archaic Figure (1987). Clampitt received fellowships from the Guggenheim Foundation, the MacArthur Foundation, and the Academy of American Poets. A member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters, Clampitt taught at the College of William and Mary, Amherst College, and Smith College.Joseph Parisi, a Chicago Tribune Book World reviewer, called the poet's sudden success after the publication of The Kingfisher “one of the most stunning debuts in recent memory.” Parisi continued, “throughout this bountiful book, her wit, sensibility and stylish wordplay seldom disappoint.” In one of the first articles to appear after The Kingfisher's debut, New York Review of Books critic Helen Vendler wrote that “Amy Clampitt writes a beautiful, taxing poetry. In it, thinking uncoils and coils again, embodying its perpetua argument with itself.” Georgia Review contributor Peter Stitt also felt that “The Kingfisher is … in many ways an almost dazzling performance.” In the Observer, Peter Porter described Clampitt as “a virtuoso of the here and the palpable.” Porter ranked her with the likes of Emily Dickinson and Elizabeth Bishop.Critics praised the allusive richness and syntactical sophistication of Clampitt's verse. Her poetry is characterized by a “baroque profusion, the romance of the adjective, labyrinthine syntax, a festival lexicon,” said New York Times Book Review contributor Alfred Corn in an article about Clampitt's second important collection, What the Light Was Like (1985). Indeed, the poet's use of vocabulary and syntax is elaborate. “When you read Amy Clampitt,” suggests Richard Tillinghast in the New York Times Book Review, “have a dictionary or two at your elbow.” The poet has, Tillinghast continues, a “virtuoso command of vocabulary, [a] gift for playing the English language like a musical instrument and [a] startling and delightful ability to create metaphor.” Her ability as a poet quickly gained Clampitt recognition as “the most refreshing new American poet to appear in many years,” according to one Times Literary Supplement reviewer.Clampitt's work is also characterized by erudite allusions, for which she provides detailed footnotes. Times Literary Supplement critic Lachlan Mackinnon compared her “finical accuracy of description and the provision of copious notes at the end of a volume,” to a similar tendency in the work of Marianne Moore. “She is as ‘literary' and allusive as Eliot and Pound, as filled with grubby realia as William Carlos Williams, as ornamented as Wallace Stevens and as descriptive as Marianne Moore,” observed Corn. Washington Post reviewer Joel Conarroe added Walt Whitman and Hart Crane to this list of comparable poets: “Like Whitman, she is attracted to proliferating lists as well as to ‘the old thought of likenesses,'” wrote Conarroe. “And as in Crane her compressed images create multiple resonances of sound and sense.”What the Light Was Like centers around images of light and darkness. This book is “more chastely restrained than The Kingfisher,” according to Times Literary Supplement contributor Neil Corcoran. Conarroe believed that the poet's “own imagery throughout [the book] is sensuous (even lush) and specific—in short, Keatsian.” Corn similarly commented that “there are stirring moments in each poem, and an authentic sense of Keats' psychology.” He opined, however, that “her sequence [‘Voyages: A Homage to John Keats‘] isn't effective throughout, the reason no doubt being that her high-lyric mode” does not suit narrative as well as a plainer style would.Clampitt's Archaic Figure (1987) maintains her “idiosyncratic style,” as William Logan called it in the Chicago Tribune. New York Times Book Review contributor Mark Rudman noted the poet's “spontaneity and humor; she is quick to react, hasty, impulsive, responsive to place—and to space.” In the London Sunday Times, David Profumo further praised Archaic Figure. Taking the example of the poem “Hippocrene,” the critic asserted that this work “demonstrates her new powers of economy, the sureness of her rhythmic touch and the sheer readability of her magnificent narrative skills.” “Amy Clampitt,” concluded Logan, “has become one of our poetry's necessary imaginations.”Clampitt died in Lenox, Massachusetts in 1994.

When starting a business, there are several key things to consider, like marketing strategies and financial planning. In the early stages, it's crucial to reach a wide audience to make your business known. What are some effective ways to make an impact and connect with potential clients? Join us in this episode with Nicole Grinnel, an entrepreneur, CEO, and podcast host. We discussed the benefits of guesting on podcasts, especially for early-stage businesses for growth and connection, as well as having an entrepreneurial mindset and remote work flexibility, such as virtual assistants.  Tune in to gain valuable insights! --- Listen to the podcast here: Podcasting as a Business Growth Strategy with Nicole Grinnell Welcome to Action's Antidotes, your antidote to the mindset that keeps you settling for less. I've advocated quite a bit on this podcast about kind of embracing a new way of thinking and I think one of the things that we've often thought about in the past is that when someone is doing something similar to what you're doing, you see them as a competitor, as someone that's kind of possibly occupying your space. But there's a saying that the market's only saturated when you're trying to be someone else and it's not necessarily saturated with you. So, I'm always here to support other people on the same journey, and the journey I'm talking about today is showcasing the stories of people who start their businesses or showcasing the stories of people who follow their passions very much here. So, my guest today, Nicole Grinnell, is the host of Mic'd Up, another podcast, as well as a two-time business founder. ---   Nicole, welcome to the program.   Thanks so much for having me, Stephen. I'm excited to be here.    Well, thank you so much for popping on. And let's first start by talking about Mic'd Up. Now, your podcast has been around for quite some time, even longer than this one.   Yeah. So we have, obviously, like our actual show, and then we really serve as a booking agency to get other people on podcasts, which is a way that we've actually grown multiple businesses and supported a lot of businesses in that effort and so we really want to do much like the purpose of your show is show other ways that businesses can grow through different avenues and what other people have done and that's what Mic'd Up plans to do.    Nice. And so I guess the first question I have for you about that is, if someone is starting a business or trying to get any of their initiatives noticed, and I want to be all inclusive, not every initiative is a business but want to get something noticed, how should someone be thinking about podcasts? I hear people have advocating, say, start your own podcast or try to be on other podcasts. What's the best way for someone to think through a strategy as far as building their business that involves the podcasting medium?   So, it's funny because I always say there's a time and place for either of those. It really depends on the stage you're at in business. So, when you are just starting out and you're really trying to build your name, build pipelines, build relationships, that's a great time to be in a guesting space because, really, what happens is the show is all about you. So, I compare it to having someone over for dinner. What's easier, being the guest or being the host? When you're the guest, it's all about you, they're doing all the prep, the legwork, they're promoting it, they're all of this, that's really what guesting can be. When you're in the hosting space, that's a great time for when you are a seasoned entrepreneur, a seasoned professional, business is running, you've got some great pipelines and now you're kind of at that stage that you want to give back and you want to be able to naturally connect. That's a great time to be a host. So it really depends on that scale that you're in and what that looks like for you.  

On today's episode of Empowered in Health, I interview Dana Grinnell. I have been so excited to partner with her more and share her knowledge with all of you. Dana is a 40-something mother of 3 who lives & loves recreating in the mountains. She worked in healthcare for 17 years where she witnessed the rampant chronic illness in our country and became very passionate about uncovering the root causes and avoiding them to keep myself and my family safe. Turns out toxins are everywhere!!!! And can wreak havoc on our health if we aren't careful. Speaking of careful, Dana was incredibly diligent for over a decade and a half when she had an unfortunate (or fortunate depending on how you look at it) laundry detergent incident that prompted her to start her business, Free Living Co. She was returning from a routine trip to Costco when her laundry detergent leaked in the back of the car and turned a radioactive purple color. It dawned on her that it was a chemical reaction that caused that and sure enough the detergent was highly toxic. Here's the link where you can read more about the story on The Cooldown: https://www.thecooldown.com/green-home/spilled-laundry-detergent-car-trunk-color-change/ Dana shares that it's almost impossible to keep up with all the ingredients that cause harm, reading the labels is time intensive, and you simply can't trust natural or "healthy" stores or brand's marketing claims. Because of this - she decided to build a business to solve this problem and make homes healthier without the hassle. Tune in to today's episode to hear more of Dana's incredible perspective, key tips and simple, manageable steps you can take to start cleaning up the products in your home, for your health.

And today we are going to do a topic talk episode and the episode is why social never learned to drive so social, why didn't you ever learn to drive?00:00:19XochitlJack, this is actually a really interesting thing that I've been thinking about a lot lately because I still haven't learned to drive. Answer those who are not familiar with American culture, getting their license was a main staple of American culture up until.00:00:34JackMHM.00:00:35XochitlAround my generation.00:00:39XochitlRight, so people who are like denzi, millennial cuspers or genzi or very, very young millennials, like still in their 20s can all kind of relate to this. There's a shift. There was a shift in the culture and everyone.00:00:57XochitlIt was so much less common to get your license.00:01:01XochitlVersus it used to be that everyone got their license as soon as they could, because that kind of meant freedom. And I Jack, you can speak more to that than I can.00:01:09JackYeah, like your 16th birthday is a huge landmark in a young man's. Ohh. And and and and for young women too. In in, in my generation I'm 47 now. When I turned 16, I was like the next day I was at the the Department of Motor Vehicles.00:01:30JackTaking my my drivers test, you know to get my license because.00:01:35JackI wanted to borrow my dad's car and go places with my friends and it was like a whole world just opened up.00:01:44JackFor me.00:01:46JackAnd yeah.00:01:46XochitlYeah, crazy. Go ahead. Go ahead, Jack.00:01:48JackYeah, that's it basically. I mean, you're, you're you, you, you, you, you know, you can only walk so far, ride a bike so far.00:01:57JackAnd also it's embarrassing. It was kind of, we'll say, cringy to ride a bike after 16 in in America, which nowadays every people love their.00:02:06발표자Right.00:02:10JackYou know, so that's that's that's changed too. But yeah, when you turned 16 in America, when you turn 16 in America, you are old enough to drive, which is crazy to me because we can't drink till you're 21 and you can join the military when you're 18. But.00:02:30JackIt's it's very strange.00:02:31XochitlIf that I like to think.00:02:32JackYeah, you can go fight and die in a war, but you can't have a a beer, you know, it's.00:02:38XochitlYou can even drive.00:02:39XochitlAt 14, in some states like Iowa.00:02:41JackYeah, there's, I guess some are really young. I mean, my daughter's 15. So she's old enough to get her learner's permit, which means she could drive if I'm in the car with her.00:02:53XochitlRight, which is busy.00:02:53JackUh.00:02:54JackBut she lives near Miami in the South of Florida. I would never let her drive in a million years down there. It's a it's a hot mess down there. It's crazy.00:03:01발표자Thanks.00:03:05XochitlYeah. Dallas. Yeah, I I think the reason the main reasons I didn't get my license was a couple things. One, I had to stay at home, Mom.00:03:16XochitlWhich meant she could kind of give me rides to school most.00:03:20XochitlOr from school most days and I took the bus. Other than that, I think I mostly I took the bus to school so they do. You do? Consider it lame, I guess after a certain age to take the bus to school, but I really.00:03:33XochitlDidn't.00:03:33XochitlCare about that. So I would just think, yeah.00:03:37JackYeah.00:03:38JackThat, that, that separates you from the the fact that you don't. You didn't care is really cool. Actually, I find that that cool. You're like what? I don't care what people think about me. Like, whatever. You know, it's a mature attitude.00:03:50XochitlYeah, I lived there.00:03:54XochitlYeah. So, so that was one thing. So I would just take the bus. And two, we only had one car, so the whole family. So my dad would ride his bike to work, and most days cause his job wasn't too far. And he liked riding his bike to.00:04:11XochitlStay in shape.00:04:12XochitlAnd my mom had the car kind of at home, so whatever.00:04:15XochitlLike in case you need to come pick us up in an emergency or we got sick or whatever. So she was a stay at home Mom. So most of the time until I hit my senior year of.00:04:24XochitlThe school. And so when I hit my senior year of high school, she got a a job outside the home and then she would sometimes drive to work. But other times she would walk. So our family was really big on, like, environmental footprint, which for our listeners who don't know, it's like your.00:04:44XochitlImpact on the environment and being like.00:04:47XochitlEcologically friendly and all that stuff. So like my parents were kind of hippies in that sense.00:04:51XochitlBefore it was.00:04:52XochitlCool and and because of that, that was another reason that.00:04:52발표자Hello.00:05:03XochitlThat I didn't put that much focus on driving, I think.00:05:06JackYeah, yeah, yeah. You kind of. You know, if if it's really important to your if your dad's, like, mechanically inclined and, you know, into cars, you you might be more.00:05:19JackUM.00:05:21JackDetermined to to want to drive, you know.00:05:25XochitlWell, actually, my dad was.00:05:27XochitlReally mechanically inclined, like he had this old car before he got married to my mom and he would spend all his time fixing up on it and he had like all these expensive tools, but he would just also kind of a like a hippie or an original hipster.00:05:39XochitlThey cared a lot about, like his impact on the environment. Yeah, I would. That was probably the big driver behind one of the big.00:05:46XochitlDrivers.00:05:47JackThat's really cool.00:05:47XochitlAnd then.00:05:49XochitlYeah, I went away to college when I was. I just turned 18. When I went to College in Grinnell, IA. And it's a really small campus. And you live on campus, like all four years. So I didn't need to drive anywhere at all because we would just be in town and.00:06:03JackRight.00:06:09XochitlUh people don't know sometimes, but College in the US, you can live in the dorms, which means that your classes are like a block away, and then the dining hall is also right there. If you live on campus, you have to have, like, a dining plan. So you eat all your meals in the dining hall. They're prepared for you, and you just go in there and serve like.00:06:16JackRight.00:06:28XochitlDo for yourselves. So I didn't need to go grocery shopping. There was like nothing I really needed to do.00:06:36JackYeah. Then you kind of miss that window where you know, you go through drivers Ed in high school, you get ready for the test. You take the drivers test, you take the written test, you take the high test, and if you miss that window, it gets really awkward there. When you're in your early 20s and you just never learned.00:06:36XochitlI yeah.00:06:56JackHow to it's kind of like never learning to swim. It's kind of like people that miss that window when they don't learn when they're a kid.00:06:59XochitlThen.00:07:03JackAnd tend to kind of avoid water when they're they're older, they're just like it's too late for me to.00:07:10JackTo learn this, so I guess I'm just not going to do this activity.00:07:16XochitlYeah, cause I just got more and more like less and less important for me to have to drive. I like moved to Mexico for a little bit. I didn't need to drive at all because you could walk everywhere or take public transport everywhere. And then I moved.00:07:28JackYeah.00:07:30XochitlI finished college, so I took a gap year. I finished college and I was again I was in Grinnell again, so I didn't have to go anywhere. Then out the gate from college, I worked at a law firm and my apartment was across the street. This was a coincidence. I ended up renting an apartment across the street from where I worked. So there's a 2 minute walk and there's a grocery store like.00:07:47JackOhh, that's awesome so lucky.00:07:51XochitlAnother two minutes from me, so I also didn't have to learn.00:07:54XochitlThen.00:07:55XochitlAnd then I moved to Korea.00:07:58XochitlAnd I use public transport to go everywhere.00:08:01JackYeah, you don't need a car in Korea. You that has a wonderful public transport.00:08:05XochitlYeah. And then I moved back to Mexico and again, public transport is great and cheap, so I didn't need to drive and now I I'm in the US and I'm like, oh, it would be great if I could drive because it's such a pain to walk everywhere. But I.00:08:21JackYeah, you live in the suburbs, man. You have to walk 5 miles to the grocery store. You know, the nearest Walmart or.00:08:28JackSomething.00:08:28XochitlYeah. So it's kind of like, so I missed the window. But again, I think another thing that's interesting for my generation is like we don't really need to know how to drive that much because there's so many ride sharing apps now like Uber.00:08:41XochitlAnd.00:08:41XochitlLyft and things like that. So it sort of changed things. And the city that I live in, our public transport.00:08:42JackYep.00:08:49XochitlSystem is 3 actually.00:08:51XochitlIn Iowa City, so you can take the bus 3 anywhere, which kind of discourages you from having to drive.00:09:00JackYeah. And if you don't mind, you know, taking extra time on your trip. It's it's it's OK. Like my generation. We're so and it's if I can't get in my car and get there in 5 minutes, it's it's. I'm I'm. I'm whining. I'm frowning. You know, I'm like, oh, woe is me, you know, kind of attitude.00:09:06XochitlYeah.00:09:20JackBut it's just because I'm so used to the convenience of just hopping in my car and just getting where I want to go immediately and.00:09:21XochitlThanks.00:09:29XochitlSo I think one thing that another thing that's really interesting about all of this, Jack.00:09:32XochitlIs like that.00:09:34XochitlI wanted to ask you, since you do drive is.00:09:39XochitlI have all these reasons that make sense, but underneath all of that is that I also didn't ever want to drive because I was. I had really bad anxiety about driving.00:09:51JackHmm.00:09:52XochitlAnd I was scared, too scared to learn how to drive for years. And I'm not the only one. A lot of people in my generation view it this way like.00:10:00XochitlYou're in a metal contraption that goes crazy speeds on on the road with a bunch of other people and the same type of machine. It's just like a recipe for disaster. It's insane that it's so easy to get your license and drive and everything.00:10:16XochitlAnd the reason that I think we all think this.00:10:18XochitlWay I was thinking a lot about it.00:10:20XochitlAnd there were these. There were these public service announcements they would play in, in middle schools and elementary schools and high schools for us. So my generation and they have like, don't text while you drive or don't do this while they drive. And they were just public safety announcements to stop.00:10:40XochitlTeenagers from doing reckless things while driving because you can drive before the age of 18 so they would play these in middle schools and high schools. The problem was it would depict these really horrible car crashes and people dying and like I'm pretty sure that traumatized. I think that may have traumatized.00:10:52JackYes. Yeah.00:10:59XochitlMy generation.00:11:01JackI think you.00:11:02JackThey showed us those videos to you in drivers Ed and uh, you know, to to make us understand the the seriousness of what we were.00:11:11JackWhat we were doing and how you're basically you're, you're driving a giant bullet around.00:11:17JackAnd if you hit someone you it will destroy your life. I mean you you could.00:11:24JackYou could take a life very easily in a car and uh, I mean, you drive long enough. I've I had a a terrible accident, totaled my car on the freeway. I I I I wasn't injured very badly, but I could have been killed very, very easily and.00:11:43XochitlI'll sorry to ask you that random like.00:11:45JackYeah, this this happened. Uh, maybe six or seven years ago on the Korean freeway. And if you know the Korean freeway, it's people are driving, you know, a hundred 100 and.00:11:48발표자Oh.00:11:59Jack2200 and 3000 and 40 kilometers an hour and and I went.00:12:06JackSideways across the traffic, 6 lanes of traffic backwards. It wasn't my fault. I was hit by a truck and then I did a 360 and and smashed into the into a wall. Luckily it was backwards, so it wasn't the front of my car that hit the.00:12:26JackRetaining wall, it was the back of my car, but then the fact that I didn't get hit by other people who were flying you.00:12:33JackYou know who are coming at that same time, it was just a. It was just a I was so lucky. I just. Just.00:12:41XochitlI'm a miracle, yeah.00:12:42JackIt was a miracle that I didn't get hurt or killed in that in that accident.00:12:48XochitlWas effective too.00:12:50JackWhat's that?00:12:52XochitlDid the truck driver also survive this?00:12:54JackThe truck driver didn't even know that he hit me. I think he luckily pulled over and they found paint on the side of his truck that matched my paint. So he what happened was there was a truck that was, that was filled with too many things in it and the.00:13:09JackAnd blew it into my lane and he clipped my my front end or I'm sorry, my back end and caused me to start 360 and spinning around and and lose control of my car and go across 6 lanes of of freeway traffic.00:13:30JackAt 6:30 in the morning in Korea, which is right before rush hour, and it was, it was a miracle. It was an absolute miracle that.00:13:39XochitlThis is, uh, one of the reasons that I don't even want to drive.00:13:44JackYeah.00:13:45XochitlWell, I wanna ask you is is.00:13:49발표자How?00:13:49XochitlDo you get back in your car every day after something like that happened?00:13:54JackYeah, I mean, it was. Well, that car I never did get back in that car that they told that one off to the junkyard. No, but.00:13:58XochitlRight, right, right.00:14:04JackThat's a good question. You know, I I guess I just.00:14:08JackI think what I did was like compartmentalized the the situation. I kind of put that like situation in a box and pushed it far back in my brain somewhere where it was hit.00:14:20JackIn a way.00:14:21JackAnd I knew that if I didn't get back in the car and start driving again, I may never drive. So I just forced myself to.00:14:31JackUh to to drive again and I was just extra extra careful for a long time. I did. And now I drive like a granny. You know, I used to be more aggressive, you know, and really impatient and get really angry. And then I now I really try to be Zen in my car and just be like, OK, someone wants to cut me off, let them go.00:14:51JackJust you know.00:14:53JackJust don't be aggressive when you drive, be a defensive driver, not not an offensive driver. You have to be defensive looking, always looking around. What do you see? Is there like a kid playing with the ball on the side of the road? Alright, let's keep that in my mind because if that ball rolls in front of my car, that kid might.00:15:12JackChase that ball.00:15:13JackAnd you know, I mean you have to be you. You have to really be scanning your environment and really present. And that's why I've got become a much worse driver as I've gotten older is I tend to get tunnel vision. I start to kind of.00:15:28JackMy mind starts to wander and I'm just kind of on autopilot and especially when you drive to work the same way every day, you know, and you can get. Here's a good word for our listeners complacent. It's where you get lazy and you stop being vigilant and you stop being.00:15:49JackFocused and looking out for everything. And so you know, if I. If you told me, you know, Jack, you never have to drive again. But you can always have a ride somewhere.00:16:00JackI would take that deal in a second because I hate driving now. I've been driving for 30 years. I'm, I'm done. You know, like I'm, I. I'm it's not interesting to me anymore, but I I do need a car because I need to get to work.00:16:20JackAnd taking the bus is takes me an hour longer to get there than it would if I just drive my car. So I I do appreciate the convenience of it, but I.00:16:32JackI don't like driving and I do worry about other drivers who are being stupid or what if I don't pay attention at one moment and something happens? Or what if something just happens accidentally? Those things really do freak me out, and so I don't know. Hopefully the future.00:16:53JackIt's like automated driving, where no one's really in control.00:16:59JackAccept.00:17:00JackSome computer system AI system that's just kind of moving your car where you want it, where where it should go at a nice safe speed connected to all the other cars and and and, you know, get rid of this the human element because human beings are very unpredictable and there are some that drive.00:17:21JackLike psychos, you know, maniacs and others that Dr. responsibly and sometimes you just can't avoid an accident. And yeah, you have to. Really. I mean, that's why we have insurance.00:17:35JackBut God forbid I, you know, hurt somebody or killed somebody. I don't know how I would live with that.00:17:44XochitlI know I. That's the things that really kill me about the idea of UM.00:17:51XochitlOf driving. It's like I I really can't get past that. I think I I think because we're so close to fully automated vehicles, I may never drive. I may never drive. I may wait until we get there because I'm OK with walking places.00:18:00JackYeah.00:18:10XochitlGetting Uber or taking public transport. But but I do kind of crave the freedom other people get when they drive, like it would be nice if I had a car and I could just hop in a car and drive six hours. Any place you know, like like a day trip.00:18:25JackYeah, it's really convenient. I I love the convenience of having a car. I I would be lying if I if I said, you know, getting groceries. You know, you could just put them in there. You don't have to carry the groceries half a mile back to your house.00:18:40JackBut you know, New Yorkers, they there's they don't need cars, you know, they can get around people who live in Seoul can get around. People live in Mexico, can get around. I think you're going to be just fine without a car.00:18:55JackAnd.00:18:57JackYeah.00:18:58XochitlYeah. Well, listeners, let us know. Are you scared of driving like me or do you drive like Jack does and.00:19:07XochitlWhat is the driving culture like in your country? Do you feel like it's safe and and have you learned to drive at an age appropriate time or not? Let us know in the comments at 8zenglishpodcast.com.

Source: FBI.gov On August 23, 1992, Tammy J. Zywicki departed Evanston, Illinois, for college in Grinnell, Iowa, where she was expected to arrive that evening. Later that day, Zywicki's car was found by an Illinois State Trooper and ticketed as being abandoned. On August 24, 1992, the vehicle was towed by the Illinois State Police. On that same evening, Zywicki's mother contacted the Illinois State Police and advised them that her daughter had not arrived at college. On September 1, 1992, Zywicki's body was located along Interstate Highway 44 (I-44) in rural Lawrence County, Missouri, which is located between Springfield and Joplin, Missouri. She had been stabbed to death. Zywicki was reportedly last seen with her car (shown above) at mile marker 83 on I-80 in Central Illinois between 3:10 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. on August 23, 1992. It was also reported that a tractor/trailer was seen near Zywicki's vehicle during this period. The driver of the tractor/trailer is described as a white male between 35 and 40 years of age, over six feet tall, with dark, bushy hair. Some of the victim's personal property is known to be missing, including a Cannon 35mm camera and a musical wristwatch. The watch is Lorus brand, with a green umbrella on its face and a green band. The watch plays the tune "Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head."

Discover the captivating story of George Bird Grinnell, a pioneering force in American conservation, in this enthralling podcast episode. Born amidst the industrial expansion of the 19th century, Grinnell's life journey intertwined deeply with the burgeoning conservation movement in the United States. From the establishment of the Audubon Society to his crucial role in forming national parks and wildlife conservation policies, his story is one of profound dedication and lasting impact. Grinnell's story unfolds in an era of rapid industrialization, yet it's his profound connection with nature that defines his legacy, particularly his instrumental role in shaping The North American Model of Wildlife Conservation. Witness Grinnell's transformation from a curious child in Audubon Park to a prominent Yale-educated conservationist. His adventures in the American West not only exposed him to the raw beauty of the wilderness but also to the harsh realities of environmental exploitation and the plight of Native Americans. These experiences forged his resolve to protect the natural world. Delve into Grinnell's influential tenure as the editor of Field and Stream magazine, where his writings championed ethical hunting practices and wildlife preservation, laying the groundwork for The North American Model of Wildlife Conservation. This revolutionary concept, advocating for sustainable use and democratic management of wildlife resources, remains a cornerstone of conservation efforts today. Explore Grinnell's pivotal roles in the formation of the National Audubon Society and the Boone and Crockett Club, co-founded with Theodore Roosevelt. His tireless campaign to save the bison from extinction and his advocacy for the rights of Native Americans highlight his deep understanding of ecological and cultural conservation. Grinnell's crowning achievement, the establishment of Glacier National Park, stands as a testament to his visionary leadership.
