On this week's EcoNews Report, Assemblymember Chris Rogers joins the program to discuss this year's legislative session. Asm. Rogers has emerged as an enviro legislative darling, with bills like year's AB 263, which established minimum instream flow protections for the Shasta and Scott Rivers. Asm. Rogers joins the show to preview three new and exciting bills: AB 1984 would redefine corporate powers under state law to remove corporation's ability to spend money on elections. (Asm. Rogers recommends this article to learn more.)AB 1699 would remove operational hurdles to prescribed fire and address liability issues with the goal of expanding "good fire."AB 2494 would reimagine state-owned demonstration forests, changing their management goals from "maximum sustained production" of timber to managing for climate, clean water, wildlife, and more.Support the show

"Great minds think alike? It's completely wrong. It's not that great minds think alike; it's that different minds are great." — David OppenheimerIt's diversity week. Yesterday, Brian Soucek argued in favor of what he calls the "opinionated university" to protect free speech. Today David Oppenheimer, law professor at UC Berkeley, on The Diversity Principle: The Story of a Transformative Idea. Oppenheimer reminds us that diversity isn't a modern invention. It traces back to Wilhelm von Humboldt's University of Berlin in 1810, which admitted Catholics and Jews to what would otherwise have been an entirely Protestant institution. And to John Stuart Mill, whose On Liberty—written with his wife Harriet Taylor Mill—might be renamed On Liberty and Diversity.Oppenheimer's case for diversity is partly moral, partly utilitarian. Diverse boards result in more profitable corporations, he says. Diverse science labs make more significant discoveries. Diverse classrooms generate better ideas. The phrase "great minds think alike" is, he says, the product of a poor mind. Different minds are great. That's where the greatness comes from.Oppenheimer takes seriously Clarence Thomas's critique of diversity. Thomas argues that racial diversity assumes Black people all think alike, which is its own form of liberal racism. But Oppenheimer responds by citing Thomas's "brilliant" dissent in Virginia v. Black, where he argued that cross burning isn't political speech but terrorism. That insight, Oppenheimer says, came from Thomas's lived experience as a Black man. The other justices, all white, couldn't see it.The unsung hero in Oppenheimer's history of diversity is Pauli Murray. Born 1910 into the segregated South, Murray coined the term "Jane Crow," influenced Thurgood Marshall's arguments in Brown v. Board, saved the sex discrimination clause in the Civil Rights Act, hired Ruth Bader Ginsburg at the ACLU against the judgment of the men who thought her "meek," and ended her life as an Episcopal priest. Now recognized by the church as a saint, Oppenheimer cites Murray as not just a great theorist of diversity, but also as a paragon of a diverse life. Maybe every week should be diversity week. Five Takeaways●      Different Minds Are Great: The phrase "great minds think alike" is, Oppenheimer says, the product of a poor mind. Different minds are great. That's where their greatness comes from.●      Diversity Traces Back to 1810: Diversity isn't a modern invention. It traces back to Humboldt's University of Berlin in 1810, which admitted Catholics and Jews. Mill's On Liberty might be renamed On Liberty and Diversity.●      Clarence Thomas's Critique Is Serious: Thomas argues that racial diversity assumes Black people all think alike—its own form of liberal racism. But Oppenheimer responds by citing Thomas's own "brilliant" dissent in Virginia v. Black, which came from his lived experience as a Black man.●      Pauli Murray Is the Model of a Great Mind: Murray coined the term "Jane Crow," influenced Thurgood Marshall's arguments in Brown v. Board, saved the sex discrimination clause in the Civil Rights Act, and hired Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Oppenheimer cites her as a paragon of a diverse life.●      Mill Warned Against Majoritarianism: On Liberty is instructive today. When everyone agrees, listen harder to those who disagree. The majority is not only often ill-informed but often wrong. About the GuestDavid Oppenheimer is a Clinical Professor of Law at UC Berkeley School of Law. He is the author of The Diversity Principle: The Story of a Transformative Idea and co-director of a center on comparative equality law. He attended Harvard Law School and spent his final year at Berkeley.ReferencesPeople mentioned:●      John Stuart Mill wrote On Liberty with his wife Harriet Taylor Mill. Oppenheimer argues the book might be renamed On Liberty and Diversity.●      Wilhelm von Humboldt founded the University of Berlin in 1810 on principles of diversity, admitting Catholics and Jews to a Protestant institution.●      Pauli Murray coined "Jane Crow," influenced Thurgood Marshall, saved sex discrimination in the Civil Rights Act, hired RBG, and became an Episcopal saint.●      Charles William Eliot was President of Harvard who brought diversity principles to American higher education, encouraging the "clash of ideas" among undergraduates.●      Clarence Thomas offers a critique of diversity that Oppenheimer takes seriously but ultimately rejects, using Thomas's own dissent in Virginia v. Black.About Keen On AmericaNobody asks more awkward questions than the Anglo-American writer and filmmaker Andrew Keen.

La Corte de Apelaciones de Antofagasta confirmó el tercer rechazo del proyecto minero portuario Dominga, establecido en enero de 2025 por parte del Comité de Ministros, al decidir anular de oficio lo resuelto por el Primer Tribunal Ambiental en un procedimiento de cumplimiento incidental, considerando que su aplicación resultaba improcedente. Para Roxana Núñez, abogada y encargada de Incidencia en Greenpeace, se trata de un contundente fallo de la Corte de Apelaciones: “El fallo de la Corte es claro y lapidario para Dominga, un proyecto nefasto, obsoleto, ilegal y corrupto, que no puede seguir avanzando por medio de presiones judiciales ni saltarse la ley. Valoramos que en esta oportunidad la justicia haya prevalecido y reconociera que sigue vigente su rechazo”, aseguró la abogada. Aún así, Núñez advirtió que “no nos extrañaría que Andes Iron, la compañía tras Dominga, no cese en sus intentos por torcer la justiciay seguir apelando judicialmente como ha hecho durante la última década”. La abogada además se refirió al escenario político y judicial del país, y lo importante que es respetar la normativa y las resoluciones de la justicia en este preciso momento: “En elúltimo año hemos sido testigos de la enorme corrupción desplegada sobre nuestro país, que ha manchado la reputación de empresas, la justicia y la política nacional; por eso, es de esperar que las autoridades -tanto salientes comoentrantes- reconozcan este fallo, acaten lo señalado por la justicia y no diseñen soluciones a medida para mantener la corrupción, ilegalidad y daño ambiental irreparable que este proyecto conlleva”, puntualizó la abogada, quien complementó que también es necesario que sigan avanzando las investigaciones penales en materia de corrupción y tráfico de influencias en la materia.“Desde Greenpeace, como parte de la Alianza de Humboldt, vamos a continuar trabajando inclaudicablemente paramantener protegido este lugar de biodiversidad única, junto a las miles de personas que se han opuesto al desarrollo de este proyecto industrial en la zona. Hoy, una vez más, queda demostrado que el trabajo de las comunidades pesamás que los cientos de millones gastados por una empresa en esta fallida estrategia legal”, finalizó.

Romantiken lever i några av våra mest älskade barn- och ungdomsböcker. Eva-Lotta Hultén berättar om Maria Gripes filosofiska influenser. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna.”Allt levande hörer samman.” Orden formuleras på 1700-talet av Linnélärjungen Andreas Wiik, i ett brev till hans hemligt trolovade, Emelie. Deras korrespondens hittas på Selanderska gården i småländska Ringaryd långt senare av tre ungdomar. Av breven framgår att det ska finnas en antik egyptisk staty gömd någonstans på orten.Det finns ingen Linnélärjunge vid namn Andreas Wiik. Och ingen småländsk ort som heter Ringaryd. Men både mannen och platsen lever i Maria Gripes ”Tordyveln flyger i skymningen”.Tillsammans med ”Agnes Cecilia” är det den av hennes berättelser där de mystiska inslagen är starkast. Samhörighet över både tid och rum manifesterar sig och byggnader kan bära minnen och förmedla budskap. Särskilt i ”Tordyveln flyger i skymningen” bistår växter och djur i kommunikationen. Skalbaggar och krukväxter leder protagonisterna till viktiga ledtrådar på gåtans lösning – var finns statyn som Andreas Wiik hemförde från Egypten?Redan tidigare i sitt författarskap, också i sina mer realistiska berättelser, skildrade Maria Gripe en kommunikation med naturen, genom flera av sina karaktärer. Hugo, i ”Hugo och Josefin”, är en trygg skogsvarelse som kommer till människornas värld med ett budskap: skollärarinnan får veta att hon har hållits för lite i skogen och för mycket i skolan och att det är därför hon bekymrar sig så mycket. När Hugos för misshandel fängelsedömda far ­kommer på tal säger Hugo lugnt att ”Skogen ska en inte överge. Då går dä illa.”Också Loella i Pappa Pellerins dotter, är ett sagoväsen som hör ihop med naturen.Gripes biograf Ying Toijer Nilsson beskriver det så här: ”Den spåntäckta stugan är nästan osynlig, insnärjd i slingerväxter och med gräs på taket. Vädrets makter står på hennes sida, blixten laddar ur sig framför barnavårdsnämndens representanter, stigen är villsam och oländig, yrväder hindrar moderns bekanta som kommer för att hämta barnen.”I Gripes värld samspelar vi med naturen och talar med och genom den.Maria Gripe växte upp i Örebro men trivdes inte i stadens flickskola och när det var dags för vidare utbildning fick det bli Enskilda gymnasiet i Stockholm. Hon bodde inackorderad, och i rummet hon hyrde fanns filosofen Friedrich von Schellings samlade verk. Det är hans naturfilosofi som hon klär i Andreas Wiiks ord, och ger gestalt i Tordyveln flyger i skymningen.Schelling var verksam kring sekelskiftet 1800 och framåt och ingick i den intellektuella kretsen i staden Jena. Han räknas till de tyska idealisterna och romantikerna, vars idéer ofta ses som en motreaktion på upplysningen och den vetenskapliga revolutionen. Med den franske 1600-talsfilosofen René Descartes hade uppdelningen mellan den tänkande och den utsträckta substansen fått en strikt formulering. Ande och materia var åtskilda. Men den föreställningen medförde ett antal problem som Schelling noterade. Hur kan ett medvetande uppstå hos materia och hur kan ett levande jag påverka och påverkas av en död omgivning? ”Mellan sinnet och naturen finns en hemlig förbindelse”, menade Schelling. Men han gick längre än så.Mot den mekanistiska värld som upplysningen målat fram, där människor, djur och växter var att betrakta närmast som maskiner, ställde Schelling ett enhetligt världsallt – den ”allsjäl” som Maria Gripe låter Andreas Wiik skriva om i sina brev till Emelie. Schelling drar slutsatsen att allt levande därför kan kommunicera med, och genom allt annat som lever. En idé som han i sin tur kan ha hämtat inspiration till från de indiska vishetstexterna Upanishaderna. Där beskrivs en panteistisk värld där allt har en gemensam ande, brahman. Gud och naturen är ett.Allting, förklarade Schelling, i den andan, ”var förbundet med vartannat och utgjorde en enda universell organism” – från grodor till träd, stenar, insekter, floder och människor. Ande är osynlig natur, medan naturen är synlig ande – en central tes för romantikerna. I stället för total åtskillnad mellan jaget och naturen – dess motsats.Efter sin studentexamen läste Maria Gripe filosofi och religionshistoria vid Stockholms högskola och romantiken intresserade henne särskilt. Också Schiller, Novalis och Fichte går att spåra i hennes böcker. Liksom Atterbom och Schopenhauer. Gripe var beläst och ville få sina unga läsare att reflektera. Vilket breven till henne visar att hon också lyckades med. ”Den där Schopenhauer verkar bra. Var får man tag på hans böcker?”, skrev en ung läsare.I ”Tordyveln flyger i skymningen” låter hon huvudpersonerna Jonas, Annika och David – 13, 15 och 16 år gamla – samtala om de stora idéerna i Andreas Wiik brev. Brev som han hade bett Emelie att förvalta, och som hon gömt under en golvtilja. I ett meddelande till dem som hittar gömman ber hon att de ska lägga tillbaka Andreas skrifter igen, om deras tid är lika oförnuftig och oaktsam om livet som hennes egen. Är tiden mogen nu, funderar David, Jonas och Annika. Kanske är ingen tid redo för sådana tankar? Men kanske kan alla tider öppna sig för dem?Schelling var en oerhört populär föreläsare vid universitetet i Jena men hans idéer har gått stick i stäv med modernitetens förhärskande naturvetenskap och har kritiserats och förlöjligats, från hans egen tid fram till våra dagar. Samtidigt har han inspirerat tänkare över alla spektra. En av dem var Alexander von Humboldt. När Humboldt dog 1859 var han sin tids mest berömde vetenskapsman, med banbrytande forskning inom en hel rad naturvetenskapliga discipliner, och uppfinnare av några nya, som oceanografi och klimatologi. Hans levnadstecknare Andrea Wulf kallar honom för ”naturvetenskapernas Shakespeare.” Humboldt beskrev, i vännen Schellings anda, jorden som en organism som pulserade av liv, ett sammanhängande helt där allting är förbundet med vartannat i ett nät av organiskt liv. Det leder tankarna till James Lovelocks så kallade Gaiahypotes – att hela jorden fungerar som ett levande, sammanhängande system. Idag har denna tanke ett växande stöd inom naturvetenskapen. Samtidigt visar kvantfysiken på märkliga samband på partikelnivå över stora avstånd – och ny forskning på psykedelika, som ger starka upplevelser av att höra ihop med världsalltet, visar att detta har en positiv effekt vid depressioner.Schellings idéer om en förbunden värld tycks i vår tid komma till oss från olika håll. Hans tankar ser också ut att kunna bli ett viktigt verktyg för att finna nödvändiga nya förhållningssätt till, och förståelse av vår omvärld, i klimatkrisens tid. Allt levande hörer samman. Är vi mogna för att ta till oss den tanken? Är vi tillräckligt lyhörda för att följa de spår som tordyveln lägger ut?Eva-Lotta Hulténjournalist och författare

Whether it's the district's Humboldt Promise program, the new Cubs Community Care Center, limiting cell phone use in schools, or improvements from a $17.5 million bond issue voters passed in 2022, Humboldt schools are rapidly retooling to meet students' needs and prepare them for a changing world. At the heart of it is Superintendent Dr. Amber Wheeler, now in her fifth year at the district. The changes, insists Wheeler, are because of an unrelenting focus on “doing what's right for kids.” In this week's episode of “Registered,” we speak with Wheeler about how the district is transforming to meet the moment.

"I don't think I had a choice—this is just how my river runs."In this episode of Real Things Living, host Brigitte Cutshall talks with Yousef Benhamida, the systems-driven entrepreneur behind the national brand Humboldt's Secret. Yousef shares his journey from childhood "hustles" to bootstrapping a national empire. He explains why he values a "clean house" and organized systems over raw hustle, and how a relentless refusal to lose drives his success.3 Takeaways:(1) Focus on Not Losing: Yusuf views his habits as a way to avoid the pain of loss rather than following a formal "discipline".(2) Scale through Systems: To grow, you must eliminate chaos by organizing every file and warehouse process so the business can "fly".(3) Be Ready for the "Draft": Success comes from years of preparation so you are positioned to perform when the big opportunity arrives.Connect with Yusuf Benhamida - https://yousefbenhamida.com/Humboldt's Secret Supplies - https://humboldtssecretsupplies.com/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/yousefbenhamida/LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/yousefbenhamida/

Au début du XIXᵉ siècle, un homme parcourt l'Amérique du Sud avec une curiosité insatiable. Il s'appelle Alexander von Humboldt. Naturaliste, géographe, botaniste, mais aussi passionné de langues, Humboldt ne se contente pas d'observer les paysages : il écoute les peuples, leurs récits, leurs mots, leurs manières de nommer le monde.Lors d'un séjour dans la région de l'Orénoque, il fait une rencontre pour le moins étrange. Un marchand lui propose d'acheter un perroquet. Mais pas n'importe lequel. L'oiseau ne se contente pas d'imiter quelques sons familiers : il répète des mots entiers, dans une langue que presque personne ne comprend plus.Humboldt apprend alors l'histoire tragique de ce perroquet. Il appartenait autrefois au peuple Maypure, une tribu amérindienne aujourd'hui disparue. Les Maypure ont été décimés lors de conflits avec une tribu rivale, les Caribs, qui ont pris possession de leurs terres. L'oiseau, capturé après le massacre, a survécu aux humains qui l'avaient élevé.Peu à peu, Humboldt réalise l'ampleur de ce qu'il a sous les yeux. Le perroquet ne répète pas des sons isolés : il restitue des mots authentiques de la langue maypure. Autrement dit, cet animal pourrait être le dernier “locuteur” de cette langue.Humboldt, conscient de l'urgence, entreprend alors un travail minutieux. Il écoute attentivement les vocalisations de l'oiseau, note les sons, tente d'enregistrer les phonèmes, les intonations, les répétitions. Il ne peut évidemment pas reconstruire toute la langue, ni en comprendre la grammaire complète, mais il parvient à consigner plusieurs dizaines de mots.Ces fragments deviennent précieux. Car sans eux, la langue maypure aurait disparu sans laisser la moindre trace.Le perroquet de Humboldt n'a pas “sauvé” la langue maypure au sens strict. Mais il en a préservé des éclats, comme des fossiles sonores, permettant aux linguistes modernes d'affirmer qu'elle a existé, et d'en étudier quelques caractéristiques.Dans ce cas précis, le dernier témoin d'une culture humaine n'était ni un livre, ni un monument… mais un perroquet.

Send us a textEight years ago, the entire country mourned alongside the tight-knit community of Humboldt, Saskatchewan.A bus carrying the local junior hockey team — the Humboldt Broncos — collided with a transport truck on April 6, 2018, killing 16 people and injuring 13 others.Last week, Netflix released a teaser about a new fictional series that sounds eerily familiar: a team in a working-class town where hockey is everything — until a bus crash kills a group of young players and their coach.The show's concept doesn't sit well with a lot of people, including some who lost loved ones in the Humboldt crash. One of the family members speaking out is Scott Thomas, whose 18-year-old son, Evan, was among the players who died.Thomas is our guest on tonight's episode of Village Media's Closer Look podcast.Hosted by Village Media's Michael Friscolanti and Scott Sexsmith, and produced by Derek Turner, Closer Look is a new daily podcast that goes way beyond the headlines with insightful, in-depth conversations featuring our reporters and editors, leading experts, key stakeholders and big newsmakers.Fresh episodes drop every Monday to Friday at 7 p.m. right in your local news feed — and on the show's dedicated website: closerlookpodcast.ca.

Callee Kaufman is a health and wellness coach at Humboldt Fitness. Her approach to health is very different from what you'd expect from a personal trainer. In fact, she urges her clients to rethink everything they'd ever heard about health, exercise, their bodies, nutrition and more. In this week's episode of “Registered,” Tim Stauffer speaks with Kaufman about her approach to wellness, her problems with societal pressures on body image, and why she no longer makes New Year's resolutions.

On this week's EcoNews Report, we are doing something a little different: climate action theatre. Environmentalists drone about the climate crisis a lot, laden with statistics, science, and doom-and-gloom stories, hoping that with just a little more information, people will straighten up and take this issue seriously.  What is too often missing is the engagement of our imaginations,  essential both to take in the magnitude of the changes happening to our planet and to envision futures where we live within its means. On this week's show, Humboldt friends and neighbors perform mini-plays written as part of Climate Change Action Theatre, an international event created to stimulate our climate imaginations.  Many thanks to climate advocate Wendy Ring for bringing these plays to life!Support the show

In this chilling Bigfoot encounter, a Yurok Tribe member shares eight years of terrifying Sasquatch activity on a remote property in California's Lost Coast and Humboldt County region. What began as strange noises quickly escalated into rock throwing, tree knocks, massive woven structures, red glowing eyes, and blood-curdling screams just feet from her home.Living alone in a secluded valley with only one road in and out, she describes being followed through the woods, surrounded at night, and experiencing intense moments where something large paced outside her cabin, shook trees, and vocalized in rage. She recounts encounters involving nest-like structures, stick formations, thrown objects, foul odors, and coordinated tapping signals, suggesting multiple Sasquatch operating together.This firsthand account also explores Native American perspectives, long-term Bigfoot habitation, and the psychological toll of prolonged exposure to unexplained entities. From a mysterious lemur sighting to missing wildlife, strange activity inside the home, and feelings of being watched, this episode raises unsettling questions about what truly lives in the forests of Northern California.If you're interested in Bigfoot sightings, Sasquatch encounters, cryptid investigations, Native American Bigfoot lore, or true paranormal experiences, this episode will stay with you long after it ends. Sasquatch Summerfest 2026 is July 10th through the 11th. It's going to be fantastic and this year, I'll be a speaker!!!

Nspecta of CSI Humboldt and Bodhi join Matthew Riot of Riot Seeds to Present, Review and Discuss "The Cannabible" by Jason King, Book 2 (the red one). Part 2. Educational, historical, & public interest used with permission by the author.

The temperate rainforests of the Pacific Northwest, stretching from Alaska all the way down to the redwoods of California, are some of the most productive and biodiverse forests on the planet. In terms of total carbon sequestration and storage, nothing beats them—particularly the towering coast redwoods. In this climate crisis, the best thing we can do is to grow these forests older, safely storing carbon away. But there is a concerted effort by the timber industry to offer a different "solution:" cutting down trees to store carbon in wood products. Environmental journalist Paul Koberstein, author of the book Canopy of Titans, joins the program to discuss the magnificence of the temperate rainforests of North America and his reporting on greenwashing of timber operations in the name of the climate.Support the show

The long-awaited Humboldt Regional Climate Action Plan—a multi-jurisdictional strategy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions—is finally up for approval before the Board of Supervisors. (We say finally because the document, which sets emissions reduction targets for 2030, has been in the works since 2018. Seven years of work for a document with a shelf life of four years.) On this week's show, guests Colin Fiske of the Coalition for Responsible Transportation Priorities (CRTP) and Matt Simmons, Climate Attorney at EPIC, join the show to discuss the merits and demerits of the Climate Action Plan.Interested in more?

This week on the Econews Report, we're joined by Marc Hoshovsky and Bob Schneider, two of the authors of the new book Exploring the Berryessa Snow Mountain National Monument, which will be published early next year by Backcountry Press.Never heard of the Berryessa Snow Mountain National Monument? It's an incredibly strange stretch of land, with absolutely unique geologic and botanical features, that stretches down from Lake County to Napa County. The land is part of a subduction zone that was thrown up from the deep ocean to the mountains, and as such it's made mostly of minerals and rock types that you're not likely to find many other places.On top of that, the region has a rich and unique history that encompassed some 31 different Native American groups … and terrible acts of genocide at the hands of European settlers.Check out this conversation, then check out the book, and you'll almost certainly want to check out the Berryessa/Snow Mountain area on your next hiking trip.LINKS:Exploring the Berryessa Snow Mountain National Monument at Backcountry Press.The monument's Wikipedia page.The monument's page at the Bureau of Land Management.Support the show

Una joya sonora para este domingo. Oye en Spotify, o en tu plataforma favorita de podcast, esta conversación en Explora de la artista Beatriz GONZÁLEZ con la investigadora NATALIA GUTIÉRREZ. Descubre los aportes de Humboldt y Caldas a la biogeografía de las plantas, la historia de su ambiciosa obra Cosmos que pretendía compilar todos los conocimientos de su época y una aproximación desde el arte. En esta charla, la gran pintora e historiadora Beatriz González Aranda repasará la estética humboldtiana del paisaje, con un análisis de Humboldt y el paisaje colombiano del siglo XIX, los apuntes del viajero, las versiones elaboradas luego por destacados pintores y grabadores, la presencia de lo pintoresco y del paisaje heroico que Humboldt consideró importantes, más allá de la observación científica. Veremos la influencia de Humboldt entre los pintores, algunos de los cuales recibieron instrucciones directas de él o ilustraron importantes crónicas científicas para los periódicos. No te pierdas esta narración privilegiada en la que González reconstruye la red de artistas que convirtieron las observaciones de Humboldt en imágenes: desde Joseph Anton Koch y sus paisajes “heroicos”, poblados por hombres de “pocas necesidades y nobles principios”, hasta los viajeros pintores que siguieron instrucciones para representar el paso del Quindío, el Salto del Tequendama o los precipicios andinos. Invitadas: Beatriz González, pintora, historiadora y crítica de arte, de amplio reconocimiento nacional e internacional. Su obra constituye un capítulo fundamental de la historia del arte en América. Obras como los “Columbarios” del Cementerio Central, en Bogotá, subrayan su visión comprometida con la tragedia de un país en guerra. Estudió artes e hizo un curso de grabado en la Academia Van Beeldende Kunsten de Rotterdam. Como historiadora publicó los libros: Ramón Torres Méndez, entre lo pintoresco y la picaresca (1985) y Las artes plásticas en el siglo XIX, en la Gran Enciclopedia de Colombia (1993), entre otros. Natalia Gutiérrez, investigadora, maestra en Teoría e Historia de la Arquitectura y el Arte y doctora en Arte y Arquitectura.

This week on the EcoNews Report we're excited to share that the comment period for Eel River dam removal has finally opened! Tune in to hear co-hosts Tom Wheeler of EPIC and Alicia Bales of the Redwood Chapter of the Sierra Club talk with Alicia Hamann of Friends of the Eel River about this important moment. The Wild and Scenic Eel River offers an unparalleled opportunity to restore native fish populations. With vast, high-quality habitat protected in wild landscapes and fish that retain their wild genetics, dam removal will reconnect hundreds of miles of prime spawning and rearing habitat, restore natural sediment flow, reduce methylmercury buildup, and improve downstream water quality. Taking down the Eel River dams is the single most important step toward recovering the river's once-abundant salmon, steelhead, and lamprey runs. Supported by Tribes, fishers, recreationists, and conservation groups, the Free the Eel movement invites everyone to help heal a century of harm and restore this iconic river.Learn more and find information about upcoming comment workshops and instructions for submitting comments at eelriver.org.Support the show

 In part one of a three-part mini-series on the theme of "university", we go on a whirlwind tour of the history of universities, from medieval student guilds in Bologna to the modern day.  The University of Bologna nears its thousand-year anniversary. Why universities emerged: stability, trade, rediscovered texts, Church needs. Student guilds hired teachers; papal charters granted privileges, recognition. Medieval curriculum and university specialisations in law, theology, medicine. Renaissance humanism broadened studies beyond law and theology. Scientific Revolution made universities producers of new knowledge. Humboldt model united teaching and research in modern universities. Post-war expansion massified higher education around the world. Today: many universities, 250 million students; degrees often required. UK participation reaches 50%; rising costs and student debt.

The true story of the Donner Party—cannibalism and survival in the Sierra Nevada. In winter 1846–1847, nearly 90 pioneers were snowbound at Truckee/Donner Lake after betting on the Hastings Cutoff and losing critical weeks in the Wasatch Mountains and Great Salt Lake Desert. What followed—starvation, the Forlorn Hope snowshoe escape, and cannibalism—became America's most infamous saga of westward migration.This documentary-style episode of Terrifying & True traces the route from Springfield, Illinois to the blizzards that sealed the pass by Nov 4, 1846, the collapse of order on the Humboldt, and the desperate rescue missions that fought 30-foot drifts, Starved Camp, and the scandal that haunted Lewis Keseberg for life.Inside this episodeThe “shortcut” that killed. Lansford Hastings pushes an untested route; weeks are lost in the Wasatch and on the salt flats.Pass closed, hope fading. Wagons reach Truckee Lake (Oct 31, 1846); an eight-day storm buries the Sierra Nevada by Nov 4.“Hungry times.” Cabins sink under snow; families boil rawhide and tallow as game vanishes and deaths mount.The Forlorn Hope. On Dec 16, fifteen leave on crude snowshoes; starvation, whiteout, and an unthinkable choice decide who lives.Rescues through hell. Relief parties attack the pass; John Stark drags children from Starved Camp two at a time.Aftermath & stigma. Keseberg, rumors, lawsuits—and the lasting warning from Virginia Reed: “Never take no cut-offs and hurry along as fast as you can.”A clear, date-driven reconstruction of choices, storms, and survival. We're telling that story tonight.

The Yurok people are a fishing people. Since time immemorial, the Klamath River provided for the Yurok, with salmon, eels, eulachon, and other food. Colonization fundamentally upset the balance that existed. The Yurok faced genocide, and those that survived were confined to a small portion of their territory. The Klamath, once a mighty salmon stronghold, was choked by fish-killing dams. But the Yurok persisted. In her new book, The Water Remembers: My Indigenous Family's Fight to Save a River and a Way of Life, Amy Bowers Cordalis details the long struggle by her family and people to resist, restore and renew tribal sovereignty and the Klamath River. Come see Amy and get a copy of her new book signed at CalPoly Humboldt on Thursday, November 13th from 4:30-7:30pm at the Behavioral & Social Sciences building, room 162, as part of their Decolonizing Sustainability Speaker Series.Support the show

This Farm4Profit episode features Matt and Kelly Griggs, owners of Griggs Farms LLC in Humboldt, Tennessee — a fifth-generation family operation growing corn, soybeans, wheat, and cotton on 2,000 acres. What began in 1882 with cotton has evolved into a nationally recognized regenerative farm rooted in conservation and faith.Listeners will hear how:Matt began experimenting with cover crops back in 2011 — long before it was common — and turned those early trials into measurable success: improving soil structure, reducing runoff, and boosting water infiltration by over 1,200%.Kelly, originally from Chicago with a background in hospitality, left her corporate career to become an essential partner on the farm. She now runs equipment, manages operations, and advocates for farm wives across the country.The couple faced immense challenges — including Matt's traumatic combine accident in 2020 and Kelly's battles with cancer and autoimmune illness — and used their platform to openly share their faith, perseverance, and community support through it all.The conversation dives deep into regenerative agriculture, family legacy, and living your faith out loud, including:How they use multi-species cover crops like cereal rye, clover, radish, and buckwheat to build resilience.The importance of balancing modern technology (Case IH & John Deere) with stewardship principles.What it means to lead publicly as a family through pain, healing, and gratitude.The Griggs' work has earned national recognition, including the 2020 Mid-South High Cotton Award and features on the History Channel's “The American Farm.”You'll also hear about their community outreach — from lighting up a tractor and grain cart with Christmas lights to connecting with other farm families through events like Farmers Off the Farm Cruise (2025).The show closes with a lighthearted “Would You Rather” segment, reminding listeners that even the most accomplished farmers still love a good laugh between long harvest days.

Who will pass on the legacies, cultivation methods, and unique eye for genetics possessed by the Emerald Triangle legends we all grew up admiring? Today's guest is the answer to that question, along with how classic cuts are being properly preserved, showcased, and bred in new ways to excite modern smokers. Blackleaf is joined in the FSOTD studio by the protege of giants, Leo Stone of Aficionado Seeds to divulge spicy unheard stories about his experience going AWOL from Army Intelligence to pursue the plant, being mentored by OG Mike, how he got involved with Mike and Eddy Lepp's dispo in San Diego, how Leo got the real Lemon Diesel and Purple Urkle, when Cherry Pie Kush cuts were selling for $500k a pop, Kevin Jodrey's impact after setting up HPRC in Arcata, when Leo got his hands on his first 160 acres in Mendo, and so much more.If you've ever wondered what it's like to grow up in a military family, and still have an unquenchable thirst to be involved with the plant, this episode is for you. Leo will detail growing up on base in Japan and how hard it was to get a bag of weed, as well as when he made his decision to go into Army Intelligence, and the moment he got busted for having weed at his residence on base, going AWOL, and eventually getting put on by OG Mike in SD, solidifying his lifer-status in the budding industry.For any cigar smokers out there, Leo will go into deep detail on his former affinity for premium stogies that used to charm him into many important rooms and get him seats at life-changing tables during his military years. This same deep understanding and appreciation of cigars was one of the driving factors in creating Aficionado Seeds, tailor-made for connoisseur
