In this episode of Science of Reading: The Podcast, Susan Lambert is joined by Jane Ashby, professor in the Reading Science doctoral program at Mount St. Joseph University. They define the concept of “settled science” as a jumping-off point before digging into phonology and the argument for not always basing your teaching practice on the newest research. Dr. Ashby touches on the impact of phonology on comprehension, the Matthew Effect, and why the term “instant words” is more accurate than “sight words.” You'll walk away from this episode with two practical exercises Dr. Ashby recommends for teaching students to transfer oral segmenting and blending to reading and writing tasks.Show notesConnect with Jane Ashby: Mt.

Full Show Notes Here   All About Dr. Stollar: Former Vice President for Professional Learning at Acadience Learning Inc. Part-time assistant professor in the online Reading Science Program at Mount St. Joseph University. Founding member of a national alliance for supporting reading science in higher education. Support educators to learn about and implement the science of reading. Consults and helps other teacher programs to align programs to reading research. Has an online membership community called The Reading Science Academy where she supports educators to learn about the science of reading and implement it in their various educational roles. What does MTSS stand for? MTSS: …stands for Multi-Tiered Systems of Support.   …is first and foremost a framework for putting into place things that we know about reading research.   …uses data to make decisions that allow schools to eliminate barriers to student reading success.  For example, we know that reading problems can be prevented for the vast majority of students primarily through the way we teach reading for the first time in the classroom.  Research also tells us there are effective ways to intervene for the students who have difficulty with reading.  …is all about making decisions as a team at a variety of levels within schools (district, school, grade) that will allow the educational system to get all students reading.  Everyone can become a reader, but they're not going to do so with the same type or amount of instruction.   …is made up of three tiers: Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3.  These are tiers of instruction and intervention. …is set up to be a continuum of instructional supports that are available to every student from day one of kindergarten.  It's the school's job to get the system of supports in place.  Each school will have its own way of doing this - think of these tiers as customized to the needs of the school community, its students, and its resources.   …and the science of reading aren't separate - they're joined together.  They are not separate initiatives.  Let's think about MTSS as the delivery system for what's in the reading research. ..is a model where each and every student is considered (from accelerated to struggling).  Check Out Dr. Stollar: Website: https://www.readingscienceacademy.com/ https://www.readingscienceacademy.com/#section-1591199462991 Check out her MTSS course, plus her Reading Science Academy membership!: Instagram: readingscienceacademy YouTube: @readingscienceacademy Email:  stephaniestollar@gmail.com

In this episode, I interview Tim Lawson from Mount St. Joseph University. Tim and I discuss the value of experiential learning and cooperative education in career exploration and professional development, and Tim shares how his department has developed strong connections with alumni who serve as mentors for students and advisors to the department. Tim and I play “What Degree Does This Job Require?” and talk about the role alumni profiles and panels play in broadening students' perspectives of what someone can do with an undergraduate degree in psychology earned from their department.

Today's episode of POSTSCRIPT explores and examines director Greta Gerwig's film, Barbie. This Warner Brothers' movie has been in theaters for under a month but has crossed the $1 billion dollar mark during that time, breaking all kinds of box office records and making Gerwig the first solo female director to enter this rarified realm. Barbie is now Warner Brothers' most successful film, surpassing Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight, which had held that position at Warner Brothers. Barbie has hit a kind of cultural and cinematic sweet spot—with a marketing campaign around the movie establishing pink as the new black, bringing in Barbie-connected products across almost all consumer platforms, from Barbie-themed furniture to holiday home rentals, from lunchboxes and tee-shirts to new Mattel Barbies reflecting characters in the film. Barbie has also received positive reviews in the United States and globally, with audience members attending the film in pink clothing and accessories, often accompanied by friends and family members. Thus, Barbie is more than a summer tent-pole release, though it certainly has fulfilled that particular role. Barbie is more of an event—driving theater attendance, conversations, and in-person community experiences. In this episode, I am joined by four scholars and experts to discuss “all things Barbie” as we examine the narrative of the film itself, the questions of gender and feminism, patriarchy, and sexuality. We also dive into the marketing campaign, the tensions between capitalism, neoliberalism, postfeminism, and an original intellectual property based on a consumer product. Dr. Linda Beail (Point Loma Nazarene University), Dr. Shuchi Kapila (Grinnell College), Dr. Danielle Hanley (Clark University), and Dr. Susan Liebell (St. Joseph University and co-host of the New Books in Political Science podcast) take up all these dimensions of this brightly colored film as we explore our thinking about this movie event that has landed in the post-Covid landscape of 2023. We all found the experience of seeing Barbie, in a movie theater, to be one filled with joy and fun, for ourselves, and among those in the theater with us. Join in our conversation about Barbie, since this is both a delightful cinematic experience and a film with something to say to its audience and the world around us. Lilly J. Goren is a professor of political science at Carroll University in Waukesha, WI. She is co-host of the New Books in Political Science channel at the New Books Network. She is co-editor of The Politics of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (University Press of Kansas, 2022), as well as co-editor of the award winning book, Women and the White House: Gender, Popular Culture, and Presidential Politics (University Press of Kentucky, 2012). She can be reached @gorenlj.bsky.social Learn more about your ad choices.

We also dive into the marketing campaign, the tensions between capitalism, neoliberalism, postfeminism, and an original intellectual property based on a consumer product. Dr. Linda Beail (Point Loma Nazarene University), Dr. Shuchi Kapila (Grinnell College), Dr. Danielle Hanley (Clark University), and Dr. Susan Liebell (St. Joseph University and co-host of the New Books in Political Science podcast) take up all these dimensions of this brightly colored film as we explore our thinking about this movie event that has landed in the post-Covid landscape of 2023. We all found the experience of seeing Barbie, in a movie theater, to be one filled with joy and fun, for ourselves, and among those in the theater with us. Join in our conversation about Barbie, since this is both a delightful cinematic experience and a film with something to say to its audience and the world around us. Lilly J.

Show Notes: https://wetflyswing.com/486   Presented by: Yellowstone Teton Territory, Togens Fly Shop, Angler's Coffee, Smitty's Sponsors: https://wetflyswing.com/sponsors     Lily Renzetti is here to tell you the entire Renzetti fly tying vise story and how they've been setting the standard for the past 50 years. We learn how it all began with an idea to make fly tying easier. We also look at some of their current ambassadors as well as some of the big names who are utilizing Renzetti across the country. We also learn why the traveler vise has been such a major changer throughout the year and continues to be a go-to vise. We also learn what's next for Renzetti. Renzetti Fly Tying Vise Show Notes with Lily Renzetti 2:56 - Lily gives us a fascinating summary of how Renzetti was built. Her husband, Andy Renzetti, was working as a machinist at that time at a local shop in Romansville PA. With the help of his brother, they were able to design the Presentation 3000 which was the very first vise that was introduced by Renzetti and retailed by Orvis. 5:51 - In 1988, they introduced the Traveler series and Presentation 4000. 9:27 - It has been 50 years since they introduced the Presentation 3000. For her, it has been a beautiful journey not only building a business but also building relationships with their customers and other people in the industry. 14:37 - Before Renzetti, Andy was using the Thompson A vise back then. The HMH vises were also available at that time. 15:23 - The true rotary concept was introduced by Renzetti. 17:17 - Lily tells us the current patents they have. They have also been designing and manufacturing rod-building equipment since the early '80s. 21:09 - I ask her what are the biggest difference she sees in the fly-tying market over the years since they started. 25:30 - She gives her opinion on other companies making vises that are similar to theirs. 28:40 - Currently, they have about 25 ambassadors which consist of legends such as Bob Popovics and Bob Clouser. Kelly Galloup is also one of them. He had him in the podcast in episodes 052 and 167. 32:15 - They find the best people to be their ambassadors regardless of their race and sexual orientation. 34:26 - Lily tells us about her journey to the US. She was born and raised in Venezuela and came to the US for college. She went to St. Joseph University in Philadelphia and took up a major in business and a minor in industrial relations. He got involved in the business with Andy in 1987. 40:06 - She is thankful to their team for consistently making everything happen and producing products that are up to the standards they set from the very beginning. 42:00 - Just this year, they introduced the Renzetti Tool Bar, Renzetti Tool Bar Station, and the Green Master Series Vise with extended crank arm, hinged stem, and streamer base. The last one won a prize at the ICAST as one of the best in the category. 46:58 - We talk about the purpose of the Bobbin Cradle. 54:05 - In buying your first vise, she recommends starting with their Traveler first. It holds the hook securely and offers true rotary features. They also have accessories that they designed for the Traveler which makes it versatile. 59:40 - She recommends subscribing to their YouTube channel @Renzetti to learn about their products and the true rotary concept. 1:01:07 - I ask her about retirement and their plans for the company. Andy has already retired, but he still goes to the office and trains their staff on the operations. 1:04:50 - She shares Andy's favorite quote which goes "There is a better way. Find it." and the inspiring story of how he persevered despite being underprivileged and having a learning disability growing up. 1:09:04 - She explains the qualities they look for in brand ambassadors. 1:11:53 - She brought the Casting for Recovery to Florida. They have also been supporting the Tunnel to Towers Foundation (T2T). They give to T2T for every vise they sell. Show Notes: https://wetflyswing.com/486

This season is all about tackling the hard stuff, and there is no harder pill to swallow than being told by a student that you don't know how to teach reading—especially when you realize they're right! After this happened to Jamey Peavler, Co-Director in the Reading Science Graduate Program at Mount St. Joseph University, she leaned in and took the opportunity to completely rethink her approach to literacy instruction. Now, her research focuses on maximizing small-group instruction. In this episode, she'll share her findings and her advice, as well as some best practices for small-group instruction and balancing small- and whole-group work.Show notes:Book: Explicit Instruction: Effective and Efficient Teaching by Anita L.

HallQuotes:“We have this mindset of that small-group differentiated golden standard, but there's a certain amount of instruction, again, [that] all kids need and there isn't a lot of difference between those things.” —Jamey Peavler“There's a certain amount of proactive, preventative foundation-building work that should be done for all kids. We can do that more efficiently in a whole-group setting and then reserve that small-group setting for what truly needs to be differentiated, because not everything has to be differentiated.” —Jamey Peavler“If we can set aside the idea of introducing a new program, and instead focus our core instruction on how that language and how those routines could actually be intensified in that small-group setting, we're going to minimize that cognitive overload.” —Jamey Peavler“What we know about overlearning is when you get that fluency down and that generalization down, you are more likely to accurately reach adaptation sooner. So it's not causing harm for the kids who have already learned that skill.” —Jamey Peavler“When you mess up, it's okay. Just mess up again tomorrow in a different way.” —Jamey Peavler

One of the most interesting Jesuit universities in the world is Saint Joseph University in Beirut, Lebanon. Founded in 1875, Saint Joseph is the only Jesuit university in the Arab World. On its incredibly impressive list of alumni are seven presidents of Lebanon. The former Superior General of the Jesuits, Fr. Peter Hans Kolvenbach, earned his doctorate there and then joined the faculty. Saint Joseph has a medical and a law school and five total campuses in all in the capital city. In the middle of a religiously diverse country, it brings together 12,000 students from all backgrounds, including large communities of both Christian and Muslim students. As they carry out their essential mission, Saint Joseph is facing unimaginable challenges due to multiple intertwined crises plaguing the country of Lebanon right now. On August 4, 2020, a historically powerful explosion at the Port of Beirut killed over 200 people and left about 300,000 homeless. All five of Saint Joseph's campuses were damaged by the blast. This instability worsened an already-dire economic crisis. A few weeks ago, host Mike Jordan Laskey talked to the university's president, Fr. Salim Daccache, SJ, about the university and how it's responding to today's challenges. Fr. Daccache has led Saint Joseph's since 2012 and earned his undergraduate degree there in 1973. A scholar and an experienced administrator, Fr. Daccache has such a clear passion for the school and is dedicated to doing whatever he can to support students, faculty and staff. Against this backdrop, the university is asking for donations in support of scholarships. Our listeners in the United States can make tax-deductible donations via a PayPal link on our website, which you can find at Jesuits.org/Lebanon.

A well-respected figure around the game, Wheeler has been recognized by his peers as the top recruiting coordinator in the Atlantic 10 in a survey conducted by D1Baseball.com. The Hawks have appeared in two Atlantic 10 postseasons during his time in the Crimson and Gray, winning 20 games or more in each of his full seasons at SJU. While working with the Hawk hitters, Wheeler has helped guide a number of players to success, including 2017 MLB fifth-round draft pick Deon Stafford, Jr., who set a single-season program record with 18 home runs on the way to Atlantic 10 Player of the Year honors in 2016, and current Hawk backstop Andrew Cossetti, whose 16 home runs in 2021 rank second on the all-time single-season list. Before coming to Hawk Hill, Wheeler spent the previous three seasons as the head coach at Temple. Prior to his stint with the Owls, he spent five years as an assistant in the Atlantic 10 with the University of Richmond. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/baseballbluebook/support

The CNN Town Hall in Cincinnati, Ohio, with President Biden was such a bust that at least half of the seats in the Mount St. Joseph University auditorium were empty, and the show's cable broadcast ratings came in dead last! Considering Biden is supposed to have won a huge, record majority of American votes just 8 months ago, and considering Trump still has huge crowds outside his rallies unable to get inside, this is a major blow to the Biden Administration's image of being supported by the American people. National Review editor Jack Butler is quoted as saying it was a "hideous spectacle unbecoming of a self-governing republic”, and he added “if CNN had any shame…, the network would never air one of these idiotic events again.” And local Cincinnati news outlets are reported to have not been able to find out who was responsible for hosting this event at the school in the first place.It is shameful the Biden Family does not have the same love and devotion to Joe Biden that Nancy Reagan had for Ronald Reagan in his declining years. The real problem is Americans and the entire world know Biden is not “in charge” at the White House. The problem is which UNELECTED person really is?The European Handball Federation (EHF) Disciplinary Committee absolutely requires bikini bottoms be worn by their womens' beach handball team players, and our @American Mamas, Teri Netterville and Denise Arthur, are asking “who made that rule up?” Apparently, really tight fitting Short-Shorts just are not an acceptable substitute! Thus, the Norwegian Beach Handball Team was fined the Euro equivalent of $1,768 because they choose to not wear bikini bottoms, but more modest, yet still tight fitting, short-shorts instead. Interestingly, the men's beach handball team players wear — shorts!Why are married couples living in blue states able to draw as much as $100,000.00 in combined Federal and State funds for NOT WORKING when there are so many HELP WANTED SIGNS in almost every business window in almost every community in that state? Apparently, Joe Biden and his Administration really does not understand the concept of “supply and demand”. Of course, if you have never had any job other than a government job, you have no experience with that fundamental economic business concept! Employers simply cannot pay more in wages than their companies can make in income.All Republicans in the US Senate voted against a procedural issue involving the $1.2 Trillion Infrastructure Bill, and that caused Chuck Schumer to also vote against it (only so he could bring it back up later). Americans are generally supportive of rebuilding roads, bridges, ports, dams, water & sewer utility pipelines, water treatment plants, the electric grid, and airports. The problem with the bill is all the extra stuff, such as Democrat “pet projects” and other “socialist agenda” items. Furthermore, every dollar in this bill will have to be borrowed — generally from our enemies, such as China, and then paid back by several decades from now future generations. George Foreman, boxing Gold Medal winner gold medal at the 1968 Mexico City Olympics, believes you cannot love America only sometimes or when it is “politically correct”. He is quoted as having said, “I have always loved America. And once you fall in love just like falling in love with your wife, no one can say anything about her.” He further explained, “The next night she is still my wife. And I'm going to stay. That's why you make that thing ‘until death do we part.' That's why nothing has ever shook my faith and love in the country and when you love a country, nothing can bother you. If you are halfway in love you are going to have a lot of trouble.”

President Joe Biden makes his first presidential visit to Cincinnati on Wednesday. He'll speak at a CNN town hall at Mount St. Joseph University. The president is expected to cover the COVID-19 pandemic and the economy. This is his third trip to Ohio as president and many will be watching to see if infrastructure will come up in his talk as our region deals with the failing Brent Spence Bridge.

Good morning and welcome to Montrose Fresh, from The Montrose Daily Press. It's Wednesday July 21st and we're here to bring you a closer look at our top stories, events and more that matter to us here in Western Colorado.    Today - Last week, Marisa Felix-Campbell, of Housing Resources of Western Colorado, learned that a client's rent would increase by 50%.  It paints a picture of the rental and housing landscape for Montrose and other areas on the Western Slope…. pretty much all of Region 10.   Today's episode is brought to you by Elevate Internet. Whether it's for your home or your business they offer the best speeds at the best price. Right now, if you refer a friend you can get $25 off! Give them a call for more information at 844-386-8744 or visit them at elevateinternet.com.   Now, our feature story.   Last week, Marisa Felix-Campbell, of Housing Resources of Western Colorado, learned that a client's rent would increase by 50%.   That's when the client started looking for other places to live.    They eventually secured a showing, but it didn't matter much. There were already 25 applications for that rental, and the price was out of reach.   So they opted to look at another, but it was much the same.   What the local nonprofit providing housing services and serving western Colorado saw with that client is just one example.   It paints a picture of the rental and housing landscape for Montrose and other areas on the Western Slope…. pretty much all of Region 10.   Demand for assistance is prominent. 50% are for people in need of affordable housing. And out-of-state employees looking to make a potential move make up 25% of the calls. People with disabilities round out the rest.   Felix-Campbell said the organization is witnessing an average of $900 for a one-bedroom apartment, with two-bedroom apartments setting around $1,100.    Others clients have reported to HRWC that they're tired of renting, and want to own a home.    But for some, it's too expensive, and for others that do own a home, they're requesting mortgage assistance.    Felix-Campbell stressed that assistance is available.    Housing Resources has its community block services grant, as well as other funding streams, like donations, to assist the public.   As far as a more permanent solution - there's hope that the Montrose Housing Action Plan can create opportunities for safe, stable and attainable housing.    Also, the Montrose community was recently accepted into Built For Zero, a national initiative to measurably end homelessness.    By participating in the initiative, local agencies working in unison can use real-time data and analyze and target interventions.   For now, for those seeking assistance, Felix-Campbell suggests continuing to ask questions.   The Housing Resources can refer a client to another agency that may be able to assist with a certain request or need.   Her advice? Don't rule yourself out before you've even tried.   To learn more about this story visit our full story at montrosepress.com   ​​And now, a story from our online community forum — NABUR.    Music has always been Katy Kristoffersen's friend and confidante.   Since the age of two when she picked up her first instrument, she's traveled along her musical journey.   Her newest endeavor sits in Montrose as the new Valley Symphony Association chorus director.   Kristoffersen graduated with a double degree in music and psychology, initially attending Mount St. Joseph University to pursue a career as a therapist.    But she quickly “woke up” to what her work would be in the world.    The newly-minted graduate set out in a new direction, gaining experience by teaching in schools despite not having a teaching degree. .   Kristoffersen sees herself as a “joyful forklift,” someone who lifts up others as a team builder and a support for her students and fellow musicians.    Her career may have deviated from her original plans, but the end result leaves the director feeling aligned with herself and her vision in life.   Part of that vision is creating a fusion between her musical and psychology background so she can facilitate an environment where her students feel safe enough to be themselves.   And through the challenges of the past year's pandemic, Kristoffersen hopes people recognize the importance of the arts as a fundamental part of “being human.”   That's all for today, thank you for listening!

In this episode we talk with Dr. Gene Kritsky, who has authored or edited 10 books and over 250 papers on subjects as diverse as entomology, Egyptology, evolution, history of science, dinosaur biology, insect poetry and insect mythology. The Tears of Re: Beekeeping in Ancient Egypt is one of his Egyptology stories in a book, and Periodical Cicadas: The Brood X Edition was released this spring, just before Brood X began singing their mating songs (at up to 90 decibels at their peak) in the Eastern US this spring. He is the Dean, and a Professor in the department of Behavioral and Natural Sciences in Mount St. Joseph University in Cincinnati, Ohio. In this incredible interview, he weaves all of these things together and ties them all into his love of bees and beekeeping. We start with a discussion of the Brood X cicadas this spring, and his new book about them, but wander in and through the history of developing the timing of all of the Broods of cicadas that exist, how are they related, and do they harm bees in anyway. Long ago he read Eva Crane's book on the history of hives, and that started his exploration of, and a book about, In Search of the Perfect Hive. As a Fulbright Scholar, he traveled to Egypt to teach entomology, and there he really got involved in their beekeeping styles, government's role and organization. He relates stories on Egypt's history of bees and beekeeping, hive styles, and yes, there has been honey found in Pyramids that is thousands of years old that is still edible. His definition of “beekeeping” is the intentional prevision of an artificial container in which bees can produce. Have you ever thought you would use the words “Insects” and “Mythology” in the same sentence? Gene does. He knows museums and can direct you to the sections that cover all of these subjects. Dr. Gene Kritsky is one of the most interesting stories we've told. Come along for the ride.

Love is in the air this spring in the eastern United States, where billions of cicadas will soon appear in the biggest emergence event since 2004.The insects are part of a group called Brood X — also known as the Great Eastern Brood — which is expected in a geographical range stretching from Tennessee to New York.These cicadas have been subterranean for 17 years, tunneling and feeding beneath the soil. When they are back above ground, finding a mate will be, understandably, a top priority. The loud, buzzing drone cicadas make is actually a mating song emitted by male insects, flexing a drumlike organ called a tymbal."It's all boys calling girls," said entomologist Eric Day of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University extension. "First you get a few here and there, then what happens is they start chorusing — there's so many of them that the cicada calls all combine in this huge chorus."While cicadas can be a nuisance for some orchardists and farmers, witnessing them is also an awe-inspiring experience, Day said."This is a real treat. This is an unusual biological phenomenon. Periodical cicadas only occur in the eastern United States; they don't occur anywhere else in the world," he said. "It's just going to be an amazingly big, big show."When and where will the cicadas emerge this year?That show doesn't kick off until the ground warms up. Cicadas, which are not harmful to humans or animals, begin to emerge when the soil reaches 64 degrees Fahrenheit, Day said.A few individuals will probably come out in mid-to-late April, Day said, stragglers that the entomologist nicknames "lonesome Bobs," who call and call to no avail. The true, large-scale emergence might happen in the first or second week of May, depending on location.Scientists differ about the precise range of Brood X cicadas, but entomologist Gene Kritsky, dean of behavioral and natural sciences at Mount St. Joseph University in Cincinnati — and the unofficial dean of Brood X cicadas — expects to see them in 14 states plus the District of Columbia.Brood X — the "X" is the Roman numeral for 10 — is the largest group of 17-year cicadas, said Kritsky, author of the new book "Periodical Cicadas: The Brood X Edition." (Other periodical cicada groups emerge on a 13-year cycle.)Scientists don't know the precise reasons behind the cicada schedules, or why both kinds of periodical cicadas have prime-numbered life spans. Emerging en masse, though, helps the bugs survive predation and mate successfully, as birds and small mammals only can pick off so many cicadas at once.When it comes to such reproduction strategies, this year's cicadas have a lot in common with other broods. What sets Brood X apart from other cicada emergences, however, is proximity to large metropolitan areas."About 35 million Americans will have the opportunity to interact with Brood X," Kritsky said, noting that they will likely be spotted in Philadelphia; Washington, DC; Baltimore; Cincinnati; and Indianapolis. In the past, Brood X cicadas have even emerged in New York City's Central Park.Early signs of cicadas include finger-size holes in the ground near the base of trees. You might also spot a chimneylike tunnel poking out of the soil.Subscribe to CNN's Wonder Theory newsletter: Explore the universe with weekly news on fascinating discoveries, scientific advancements and more.When the insects do appear, they make an impressive amount of noise. Once, Kritsky said, he recorded a cicada chorus while sitting in a cemetery below the flight path for Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport in Hebron, Kentucky.The insects clocked in at 96 decibels, drowning out the sound of passenger jets passing directly overhead. The chorus won't last long, however. Cicadas usually die just four to six weeks after emergence.Will cicadas harm your garden?When cicadas emerge, gardeners may see the insects crawling over plants, but it's nothing to worry about, said Paula Shrewsbury, an a...

17 Year Cicada Safari - Dr. Gene Kritsky The Not Old Better Show, Science & Technology Interview Series Welcome to The Not Old Better Show.  I'm Paul Vogelzang and this episode is brought to you by Feals and is part of our Science Makes Us Safer series.   Our guest today is Dr. Gene Kritsky, and we're talking about the 17-year periodical cicadas.  Dr. Gene Kritsky is the dean of Behavioral and Natural Sciences and is a professor in the Department of Biology at Mount St. Joseph University. Additionally, Dr. Gene Kritsky is an entomologist who has authored or edited 10 books and over 250 papers on subjects as diverse as entomology, egyptology, evolution, history of science, dinosaur biology, insect poetry, and insect mythology. Dr. Kritsky's most recent book, The Periodical Cicadas: The Brood X Edition was published in 2021.  And, now, Dr. Kritsky and his Mount St. Joseph IT team have introduced a fantastic new app to track the cicada for citizen science research, called ‘Cicada Safari.' At this very instant, in backyards and forests across the eastern U.S., one of nature's greatest spectacles is underway. Every seventeen years, millions of cicadas rise from the soil of the eastern United States to fly, mate, and fill the air with their noisy song. Although it may lack the epic majesty of the wildebeest migration in the Serengeti or the serene beauty of cherry blossom season in Japan, this event is no less awe-inspiring. I'm talking about the emergence of the Brood X cicadas.  Be aware as you're mowing your lawn, outside on a hike, listening to the trees rustle, and please use the Cicada Safari app to help with the tracking and mapping of these amazing insects! We'll talk about the Brood X cicada, the new ‘Cicada Safari' app, cicada sounds, which you can hear now in the background, and all things cicada with Dr. Gene Kritsky. Please join me in welcoming to The Not Old Better Show via internet phone, Dr. Gene Kritsky. My thanks to Dr. Gene Kritsky for his generous time, work, and energy today.  My thanks to Feals for sponsoring today's show.  Please support our sponsors.  My thanks, as well, to you, my wonderful Not Old Better Show audience.  Please join me next time, be safe, be healthy…I hope you're listening today as you're waiting in line for your vaccine, and remember, let's talk about Better.  The Not Old Better Show.  Thanks, everybody.

For many of us, the rhythmic chatter of annual cicadas is a natural part of every summer. But then… every once in a while… the trees explode in a deafening chorus of periodical cicadas. Periodical cicadas will spend over a decade as nymphs underground before emerging and maturing into adults. The adults only live a few weeks, but what an impression they make while they are here! In this episode of the Backyard Ecology podcast, we talk with Dr. Gene Kritsky. Gene is the Dean of the School of Behavioral and Natural Sciences at Mount St, Joseph University in Cincinnati. He is also the author of the book Periodical Cicadas: The Brood X Edition. During our conversation, Gene talked about the different species of 17-year periodical cicadas, as well as, the difference between broods and species. We also talked about the interesting life history of periodical cicadas and the important roles they play in the local ecosystems when they emerge. In addition, Gene provided tips for anyone who might be a little concerned about any negative impacts that periodical cicadas might have on their trees. One of the most exciting things Gene shared with us is his research on documenting and mapping the different broods. The idea that whole broods could be missed for centuries or that we have new broods appearing as portions of known broods shift their emergence patterns is fascinating to me. I also love the fact that he has given all of us the opportunity to help document and map the different broods through his Cicada Safari app. Using the Cicada Safari app, we can help Gene and other researchers gain a better understanding of the distribution of the different broods. With today's tools and technology, we have the opportunity to easily help create much more detailed and comprehensive maps of the broods than scientists have ever been able to do before. But to it will take all of us working together and documenting what is happening in our own yards and communities. I think that's exciting and hope we can help grant Gene's wish to completely overwhelm him with data. I also appreciate all of the fun and educational resources that are included in the Cicada Safari app and on the Cicada Safari website. Whether you want to learn how to identify the different species, just have some fun making origami cicadas, learn how to dive into the historic records to try and identify overlooked broods in your area, or are looking for potential science fair project ideas, the Cicada Safari website has you covered. Links to the Cicada Safari website, Gene's book, and other periodical cicada resources he recommended can be found below. When we recorded this in 2021, Brood X was the periodical cicada emergence that we were looking forward to. However, at least one brood of periodical cicadas emerges somewhere in the country every year. So, no matter when you listen to this episode, it is likely that there will be an emergence somewhere in the U.S. that needs to be documented and mapped.

There are millions of sensors throughout our entire nervous system that can communicate about pain.Nociceptors are the principle mechanoreceptor responsible for detecting tissue damage and are located throughout the body.These receptors deliver messages through nerves to the brain. Receptors can be specialized. They respond to the following . . .* Mechanical forces - pinch or pressure* Temperature changes - hot and cold* Chemical changes - allergens (outside) or (inside) chemicals released by cells, or carried in body fluids like lactic acid.* The life of a receptor is short, they only live for a few days and then they are replaced by fresh receptor. So, your current level of sensitivity is not fixed!What are the different types of pain?There are two types of common pain that are acute and chronic.* Acute pain is short-lived. This pain immediately follows an injury and involves tissue damage. It improves within a few weeks to six months. During this time it's good to stay active.* Chronic pain, in comparison, lasts longer than six months. It's a result of an underlying injury and tissue damage is not the main issue. Chronic pain is more difficult to treat.* There is a third type of pain that belongs in its own category, it's called neuropathic. You may also hear people call this nerve pain. This pain occurs after an injury where there is no tissue damage at all.When most people think about pain, they think about nerves. Can you explain what nerves are and why stress can make pain worse?* Nerves are cords. They are about 50% ligament and about 50% neurons.* As in most persistent pain, stress can make it worse. Nerves, especially damaged ones, can become sensitive to the chemicals you produce when you are stressed.* This can be a bit of a vicious cycle. The brain concludes that you are under threat by virtue of this 'unexplained' pain, which makes you produce stress chemicals, which activate the chemical sensors, which fire danger messages, which tell the brain you are under threat, and so on.What are some behaviors we can do to counteract the process that can cause pain?* Help to buffer the immune system.* To have an influence on the quality of one's life* To be in control of your life and your treatment options* To have family and medical support* To have strong belief systems* To have and use a sense of humor* Exercise appropriately* Movement is VERY helpful to dissipate the chemicals that accumulate in the system when you have pain.* While these behaviors buffer the immune system, they are also known factors which can improve a pain state.* Understandably, you start to avoid some activities and movements, which reduces your fitness and strength.* Understand your pain so that you don't fear it.About 400 years ago French philosopher Rene Descartes (Decart) described the separation between the mind and body split.
