Calle Halvarsson gör som Charlotte Kalla gjorde och lämnar det svenska skidlandslaget. Det gör även den norska längdåkaren Astrid Öyre Slind och syskonen Niskanen från Finland. Varför väljer åkarna att lämna landslagen? Kan inte landslagen ge de det de behöver? Och är det så att även Frida Karlsson kommer att välja samma spår? Med: Anna Rydén Programledare: Demir Lilja
Tässä jaksossa syvennytään monen kuulijan toiveaiheeseen eli addiktioihin, riippuvuuksiin ja tunne-elämään hyvinvoinnissa ja elintapojen muuttamisessa.Käydään läpi mm. mitä on addiktio, mikä sen erottaa siitä, että haluaa jotain tosi paljon? Minkälaisia addiktioita ihmisillä voi olla liittyen hyvinvointiin ja elintapamuutoksen tekemiseen? Miksi teemme asioista joskus monimutkaisempia kuin niiden tarvitsee olla?Mitä tarkoittaa, että pakkomielteisen ihmisen elämää ohjaa kuin jokin toinen persoona? Miten voi tunnistaa omat addiktiot? Miten addiktiosta toivutaan? Jääkö ihminen mielummin "tuttuun helvettiin kuin lähtee kohti tuntematonta taivasta"? Mitä ovat oikeutuksen ja uhriutumisen tunnelukko?Näitä ja muita teeman kysymyksiä pohditaan yhdessä psykoterapeutti Kristiina Niskasen kanssa.LinkitOptimal Performance- Hyvinvointiluennot ja verkkovalmennukset: https://www.optimalperformance.fi- Kuntosali ja valmennuskeskus, Helsinki: https://www.opcenter.fiKristiina Niskanen- IG: https://www.instagram.com/riippumattaterapia/- Kotisivu: riippumatta.fi- Sähköposti: kristiina.niskanen@riippumatta.fi- Addiktiopesula: https://open.spotify.com/show/1QdTXzz1J0gW9tHc9ImPcR?si=6d9424f53e0d4fef

The core conflict in our politics right now is over institutions. Democrats defend them, while Republicans distrust them, and seek, in some cases, to eliminate them.This is really bad. It's bad for institutions when Republicans are elected, because of the damage they might inflict. And it's bad for institutions when Democrats are elected, because when you're so committed to protecting something, it's hard to be clear-eyed or honest about all the ways it's failing. And when Democrats won't admit to the problems that so many Americans can see and feel, that creates a huge opening for the right. So, what are Democrats missing?Steven Teles is a political scientist and director of the Center for Economy and Society at Johns Hopkins, and a senior fellow at the Niskanen Center. Jennifer Pahlka is the founder of Code for America and the author of one of my favorite books on why government doesn't deliver, “Recoding America: Why Government is Failing in the Digital Age and How We Can Do Better.” She's also a senior fellow at Niskanen.In this conversation, we discuss how and why the country has become polarized over institutions; the ways this was supercharged during the pandemic; the reasons government agencies are so focused on process, often at the expense of outcomes; how a second Trump administration will probably distract from some much needed institutional reforms; and more.This episode contains strong language.Recommendations:“Voice and Inequality: The Transformation of American Civic Democracy” by Theda Skocpol“Infrastructure Costs” by Leah Brooks and Zachary D.

Early Triumphs and HeroismWhen Abebe Bikila returned to Ethiopia after winning the men's marathon at the 1960 Rome Olympics, he was celebrated as a hero. Not only did Bikila break the world record, but he also became a symbol of the new African dawn. His victory captured the imagination of people across Africa and the world, marking a departure from the era when only politicians were seen as pan-African heroes.A Unique LegacyBikila, a shepherd from northern Ethiopia, shattered expectations by becoming a world-renowned athlete. In the 1950s and early 1960s, Africa lacked cultural, musical, or sporting heroes of Bikila's stature. His success was a significant milestone, as he was unknown not just as an athlete, but also as an Ethiopian and an African on the global stage.The Rome MarathonIn the 1960 Rome Olympics, Bikila ran barefoot, a decision born out of necessity and practicality. Initially, the Ethiopian athletes trained in shoes to avoid the embarrassment of appearing too poor to afford them. However, shoes caused blisters, prompting Bikila to revert to running barefoot. His victory, particularly on the cobbled streets of Rome, was a testament to his resilience and unique preparation.Historic Victory in TokyoBikila's heroism was solidified four years later at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics, where he defended his gold medal and broke the world marathon record once again. Despite undergoing an appendectomy just weeks before the games, Bikila's determination saw him run in Puma shoes this time, marking another historic victory.Celebrations and HonorsUpon his return to Ethiopia after the Tokyo Olympics, Bikila was honored with parades and gifts, including a Volkswagen Beetle and a house. His achievements elevated him to a status of national and continental pride, symbolizing Africa's arrival on the world stage of distance running.Nurturing TalentBikila's journey was significantly influenced by Onni Niskanen, a Swedish coach who recognized his potential in 1956. Niskanen, who arrived in Ethiopia post-World War II, was instrumental in training Ethiopian athletes and preparing them for international competitions. Their close relationship was pivotal in Bikila's rise to fame.The 1976 Montreal Olympics BoycottThe 1976 Montreal Olympics were marked by a significant boycott led by African nations in protest against New Zealand's rugby tour of apartheid South Africa. This boycott had far-reaching consequences, preventing many African athletes, including Tanzania's Filbert Bayi and Uganda's John Akii-Bua, from competing.Filbert Bayi's Missed OpportunityFilbert Bayi, who had set a world record in the 1500 meters at the 1974 Commonwealth Games, was among those affected by the boycott. His anticipated rematch with New Zealand's John Walker at the Montreal Olympics never happened, depriving the world of what could have been another historic race.Zimbabwe Women's Hockey TriumphAmid the boycott, the Zimbabwe women's hockey team seized a unique opportunity at the 1980 Moscow Olympics. With many top teams absent, Zimbabwe's amateur players, who had only recently gained independence, won the gold medal. Their unexpected victory remains a remarkable story of seizing the moment and making historyDonate to The Luke Alfred Show on Patreon.Get my book: Vuvuzela Dawn: 25 Sporting Stories that Shaped a New Nation.Get full written episodes of the show a day early on Substack.Check out The Luke Alfred Show on YouTube and Facebook.

Dans cet épisode 136 du Trio Économique, nous débutons avec une réflexion sur la manière de procédé à une libéralisation : thérapie de choc contre la libéralisation douce et. Nos hôtes discutent de l'impact des réformes libérales depuis les années 1970, en utilisant des exemples tels que Javier Milei en Argentine et la Grèce. On explore ensuite le paradoxe des privatisations réussies et Frank évoque le désastre de la gestion de la privatisation du Mont Orford. Vincent parle de ce qui ne faut pas faire lors d'une libéralisation comme dans le cas des aéroports canadien ou encore et de l'alcool en Alberta. Ian dévoile sa stratégie machiavélique de réforme s'il prend le pouvoir ! Dans la partie BONUS PATREON, Vincent se demande qui s'est évanouie entre Anne-Marie Dussault et Claire Lamarche... suivie d'une exploration de la nature des entrevues et de leurs différences avec les débats ou les procès. Vincent fait une découverte étonnante avec Hawk Tuah, et on s'interroge sur une théorie du complot formulée par Noam Chomsky. L'épisode se termine sur un débat entre Vincent et Ian sur l'extrême droite : Vincent est persuadé que le RN est un parti dangereux. Ian n'est pas d'accord. Frank n'a pas le temps de placer 2 mots.

If you spend enough time in Washington D.C., you come to realize that activists of left and right, for all their mutual enmities, unanimously agree on the need for radical and even destructive change. They agree that gradualism is boring, compromise is betrayal, and that the finest thing in life is, as the notable political philosopher Conan the Barbarian once observed, to crush your enemies and drive them before you. But as Greg Berman and Aubrey Fox argue in their terrific 2023 book Gradual: The Case for Incremental Change in a Radical Age, bold and sweeping policy proposals rarely come to pass and usually fail when they do. What does succeed is unsatisfactory but pragmatic compromise and gradual, sustained change. As the authors put it, “Over time, incremental reforms can add up to something truly transformative.”Berman and Fox came to this view over the course of decades of work in criminal justice reform, principally in New York City. They witnessed first-hand how homicides fell by 82% between 1990 and 2009, while the rate of car thefts plummeted by 93% -- not because of heroic leadership or sweeping reforms but because of incremental and often small-scale changes that, over time, made New York into one of the safest big cities in America. They identify a similar dynamic at work in the evolution of the Social Security program, which when it was created during the 1930s lacked the popular appeal of contemporary proposals for radical reform but developed in ways that would make it the country's most popular government program. The cautious and small-scale initial approach of Social Security's architects allowed them to learn from their mistakes and correct them. And the method of funding the program through a payroll tax meant that it paid little in the first years of its existence but gained long-term sustainability since workers came to see it as a benefit they had earned through lifetime contributions, not big-government welfare.In this podcast discussion, Berman and Fox talk about how radical change is sometimes necessary — as with the abolition of slavery — but that modest changes are likelier to succeed in the long run in a country as polarized and partisan as our own. They talk about why the “Secret Congress” makes our national legislature more successful than most observers usually realize, why implementation matters as much or more than policy conception, and why supporting gradual but sustained change is not at all (as radicals frequently claim) mere acceptance of the status quo.

Anselm of Canterbury is one of the most celebrated medieval thinkers. He is especially famous for the questions he asked and answered. Join our hosts, Lucy, Sophia, and Grace, as they bring their own questions to Dr. Samu Niskanen, professor of Medieval History at the University of Helsinki, Finland, and learn more about this fascinating person—his struggles with a king and his loving and gentle personality. (And learn what Hei Hei means in Finnish.) We are grateful to Reformation Heritage Books for providing two copies of Simonetta Carr's book on Anselm of Canterbury for a giveaway for our listeners. Congratulations to Kate R. from Bronx, NY, Maria S. from Greer, SC, and Stephanie S. from Monrovia, CA, our giveaway winners! Show Notes: How do you say “Why the God-man?” in Finnish? Miksi Jumala mies Dr. Niskanen said that J.R.R. Tolkien's well known trilogy, The Lord of the Rings, inspired his interest in medieval history!

Vieraan kanssa mietimme mm. minkälaisia sairauksia ihmisillä voi olla, jotka eivät parane tai ainakin kestää pitkään, että parantuu ja mitä tehdä silloin? Miten tällaiset sairaudet ja kehon epätasapainotilat vaikuttavat ravinto-, liikunta- ja palautumistottumuksiin? Miltä tuntuu, kun sairastuu vakavasti ja miten se vaikuttaa arkeen ja elämään, työssäkäymiseen, läheisiin, jne? Mistä voi saada tukea tällaisessa tilanteessa? Miten pääsee kohti hyvää elämää sen jälkeen kun sairastuu ja ei voi tehdä kaikkea sitä hienoa mitä on aikaisemmin tehnyt, miten elää hyvää elämää? Miten positiivinen psykologia ja itsemyötätunto voi auttaa? Mistä löytää motivaatiota pitää itsestä huolta ja tehdä fiksuja asioita hyvinvoinnissa? Miten pitkäaikaissairautta sairastavaa ihmistä tulisi kohdata, miten sitä tilannetta voisi ymmärtää niin, että voisi olla avuksi hyvinvoinnissa? Näitä ja muita teeman kysymyksiä pohditaan jaksossa lääkäri Veera Niskasen kanssa.

Lapset, rollaattorit, sähköpotkulaudat, ratikat, toiset koirat, hattupäiset ihmiset, pölynimuri, hevoset... Kun puhutaan koiranpennun sosiaalistamisesta, suorittamisen lista on usein loputon ja priorisoinnin vaikeuden luoma epätoivo saattaa iskeä ennen kuin ihana pentuarki edes kunnolla on ehtinyt alkaakaan. Eläintenkouluttaja (at) Petra Saarmanin oma belgianpaimenkoira malinoisin pentu Lyyli totuttelee parhaillaan elämään Helsingin keskustan vilskeessä, ja tässä jaksossa pääsemmekin Petran kanssa syventymään siihen, miltä pennun onnistunut sosiaalistaminen oikeasti näyttää. Mitkä ovat sosiaalistamisprosessin suurimmat kompastuskivet? Lähteet: Salonen, Mikkola, Niskanen, Hakanen, Sulkama, Puurunen & Lohi, 2023.

For most of our ten thousand years on the planet, the vast majority of humanity endured lives of dire poverty and extreme material deprivation. Most people spent most of their time worrying about securing the bare minimum of food and shelter. The Industrial Revolution began to change that dynamic. Still, the British economist and philosopher John Stuart Mill was correct to question in the early 1870s whether “all the mechanical inventions yet made have lightened the day's toil of any human being.” Soon after, however, the emergence of globalization, the industrial research laboratory, and the modern corporation made possible a rapid upward trajectory in human flourishing and an end to near-universal agrarian poverty. Another British economist, John Maynard Keynes, foresaw in 1930 that the continued progress of science and compound interest could mean that human beings, liberated from pressing economic cares, might find their real challenge to be how to occupy their leisure time and “live wisely and agreeably and well.” But the explosion of productivity and prosperity over the 140 years that followed the takeoff point in 1870 did not see humanity zooming toward Utopia; at best, we slouched fitfully in that direction. Brad DeLong, an economics professor at the University of California at Berkeley, has written a much-anticipated history of what he calls “the long twentieth century” from 1870 to 2010, entitled Slouching Towards Utopia: An Economic History of the Twentieth Century. In it, he explains how we achieved economic breakthroughs that once would have been considered miraculous — and yet fell short of what that breakthrough promised. And DeLong also explains why he believes that the era of remarkable prosperity, for all its problems and inequities, has now ended. In this podcast discussion, Niskanen's Brink Lindsey and Geoff Kabaservice talk with DeLong about why the material abundance that resulted from the great acceleration after 1870 was unevenly distributed between nations and within them, why developmental social democracy failed its sustainability test, and how the long twentieth century was in a sense a contest between the ideas of the towering thinkers Friedrich Hayek and Karl Polanyi. The discussion also covers differing perspectives on “the neoliberal turn,” speculations about how to benefit from the best aspects of neoliberalism and social democracy while avoiding their pitfalls, and a hypothesis as to why capitalism is like the brooms in “The Sorcerer's Apprentice.”

Millä keinoilla Suomeen saadaan lisää työperäistä maahanmuuttoa? Haastattelussa ovat työ- ja elinkeinoministeriön johtavat asiantuntijat Mira Sinkkonen, jonka erikoisalaa on kotoutuminen ja Katri Niskanen, joka on erikoistunut kansainväliseen osaamiseen ja työvoimaan. Suomessa on perustettu Sanna Marinin hallituksen aikana uusi viranomainen, jonka tavoitteena on edistää työperäistä maahanmuuttoa. Käytännössä TEM:n alaiset viranomaiset pyrkivät parantamaan Suomen näkyvyyttä ja houkuttelevuutta, sujuvoittamaan lupamenettelyä ja edistämään kotoutumista. Erityisesti Intiasta, Brasiliasta, Turkista ja Vietnamista houkutellaan ihmisiä töihin Suomeen. Niskanen toivoo, että ministeriö voi jatkaa tätä työtä, jolla edistetään työperäistä maahanmuuttoa. Poliittisesti tilanne on hankala. Hallitusneuvotteluja käyvistä puolueista kokoomus, RKP ja kristillisdemokraatit haluavat edistää työperäistä maahanmuuttoa. Perussuomalaiset ovat suhtautuneet kriittisesti matalapalkka-aloille tuleviin EU:n ulkopuolelta tulevaan työvoimaan. Niskanen arvioi, että siivousalalla, palvelualoilla ja sote-alalla voisi olla vaikeuksia löytää työntekijöitä, jos työperäisen maahanmuuton kriteeriksi tulisi tuloraja. Sinkkosen mukaan kotoutumispalveluihin kannattaa seuraavankin hallituksen panostaa, koska ne voivat tulla taloudellisestikin kannattaviksi. Kotoutumisella voidaan ennaltaehkäistä kuluja, joita muuten voisi tulla maahan muuttaneelle myöhemmässä vaiheessa esimerkiksi soten ja lastensuojelun palveluista. Mitä toimia nyt tarvitaan, jotta työperäinen maahanmuuttoa saataisiin riittävästi? Toimittajana on Linda Pelkonen.
Suurin osa alle kolmekymppisistä kokee, ettei kaikkien ääni kuulu suomalaisessa yhteiskunnassa. Tämä kävi ilmi Nuorten hyvä elämä -tutkimuksen ryhmähaastatteluissa. Me ollaan jääty väliin, vähän semmoinen unohdettu sukupolvi, kertoo nimimerkki Annika. Hän on yksi Nuorten hyvä elämä -tutkimuksen ryhmäkeskusteluihin osallistuneista. Ryhmähaastatteluihin osallistui 110 nuorta eripuolelta Suomea. Ryhmähaastatteluita järjestettiin Helsingissä, Oulussa ja Vaasassa. Nuoret aikuiset kertovat, etteivät yhteiskunnan palvelut vastaa heidän tarpeisiinsa sillä tavalla, että hyvän elämän edellytykset täyttyisivät, kertoo Nuorten hyvä elämä -tutkimuksessa mukana ollut E2 Tutkimuksen asiantuntija Vilma Niskanen toimittaja Satu Kivelän haastattelussa.

In Gender, Embodiment, and the History of the Scholarly Persona. Incarnations and Contestations (Palgrave Macmillan, 2021), Professors Kirsti Niskanen and Michael J. Barany present a rich collection of essays on the historical construction and reinvention of scholarly personae. The book carries this investigation by focusing on three contextual conditions that play a decisive role in the fashioning of such personae: international travels, embodiment, and gender. The book also pays great attention to the role of incomes and funding opportunities in the evolution of scholarly personae in disciplines as varied as mathematics, philosophy, experimental psychology, pedagogy, history, and medicine. Niskanen and Barany “see the history of scholarly personae as occupying a vital space in cultural theories of science and scholarship”. This statement should be understood in at least two ways. Firstly, the study of scholarly personae delves into the dynamic interactions between personalities, institutions, professional ethos, social norms, international exchanges, and explains how these interactions generate ways of conducting and presenting one's life. Secondly, uncovering such histories of scholarly personae eventually leads to a better understanding of contextual forces that prevent or encourage the emergence of greater diversity and equity within academia today. At the intersection of a wide range of scholarly disciplines and geographical contexts, Gender, Embodiment, and the History of the Scholarly Persona represent a major contribution to the historical study of scientific personae since Lorraine Daston and H. Otto Sibum's special issue, “Scientific Personae and Their Histories”, published in 2003. Victor Monnin, Ph.D. is an historian of science specialized in the history of Earth sciences.

Subscribe now Give a gift subscription Share Caleb Watney is the co-president of The Institute for Progress (along with Alec Stapp), which exists to foster innovation and technological advancement through public policy levers. Founded in January of 2021, The Institute for Progress declares itself a “think tank for accelerating scientific, technological, and industrial progress.” Razib's first major question is why such a think tank even needs to exist. Isn't there a huge complex of research universities in the US? Caleb outlines many problems with academic science in the US, with 40-45% of primary investigators' (lab heads') time being spent on writing grant applications to fund their labs. The preferences of the funding institutions and the size of the grants, determine the course and scope of research. With this in mind, rather than targeting interesting questions, many academics target questions that are fundable. As for why he needed to found a new think tank as opposed to expanding out of an established one like Niskanen or Brookings, Caleb argues that fresh institutions are often necessary for innovation, and it was important to start something without legacy baggage so they could talk to both Republicans and Democrats. The Institute for Progress is an attempt by public policy entrepreneurs like Caleb to break out of Washington D.C.'s paralyzed and polarized two-party dynamic. The Institute for Progress also has a broad scope, targeting topics as diverse as security, space, and life science. Razib and Caleb talk about the miracle of mRNA vaccines in tackling COVID-19 (a sharp contrast with the health establishment's numerous failures in confronting the pandemic), and the incredible possibilities for future vaccine development, from rapid targeted development to general-purpose vaccines. They also tackle how and why SpaceX happened, and what it means for spaceflight in the 21st century and beyond. Then they address the differences between the effective altruism movement and the progress studies movement, and the relationship between them. Whatever differences exist, both movements channel the spirit of Steven Pinker's Enlightenment Now. They conclude the conversation talking about China, its promise and peril, and US immigration policy. Caleb argues that the challenge of China is fundamentally different from that of the Soviet Union. While the Soviet Union had roughly the US's population, China is a far larger nation-state in terms of raw numbers, so it presents a much more formidable economic opponent. The US's advantage over the Soviet Union was its capitalist framework, but it does not have this edge over a nominally Communist China. One of the ways Caleb argues we can forestall being superseded by China is to allow for more immigration, specifically high-skill immigration. A major project of The Institute for Progress is to help fix our broken immigration system, and so rebuild America's stock of human capital in the coming rivalry with China.
We've got our latest episode straight out of China to break down Iivo Niskanen's dominating win in the Olympic 15 k individual start. We talk about some of the drama on the Norwegian team, cover the American and Canadian results and bring on special guest Vahur Teppan, a retired Estonian athlete who coached members of China's national team for the past four years.

Welcome back to the Devon Kershaw Show. This week we have an under-the-weather Rachel Perkins, filling in for Nat Herz, to breakdown the first two stages of the Tour de Ski in Lenzerheide, Switzerland. From winter storm conditions for the 10/15k classic that contrasted a clear and fast opening freestyle sprint, there was plenty to note in these first two stages. We also discuss translating top results in qualification to advancing into the semifinals and finals, Diggins and Kern's power that earned the Americans 1st and 4th in the sprint, and Finnish mastery of rub skis leading to Niskanen sibling dominance in Stage 2. Have a question you want answered? Send them to Devon at devon@fasterskier.com and to Nat at nat@fasterskier.com. We'll be back in a few days after the next two stages of the Tour de Ski, a 10/15k mass start skate and classic sprint, in Oberstdorf, Germany. Thanks for listening.
Has America lost its mojo? In this episode of the Vital Center podcast, we speak with the Niskanen Center's vice president Brink Lindsey about how the American government no longer seems capable of accomplishing significant, important undertakings — and how that failure is endangering liberal democracy both at home and abroad. Brink describes his personal journey as a "recovering libertarian," from a vice president at the Cato Institute to an advocate for robust social insurance and strong, capable government as a necessary complement to free-market capitalism. In particular, he offers an in-depth explanation of the thinking behind his recent manifesto for Niskanen's new State Capacity Project. He describes how suspicion of centralized state power — shared, ironically, by both the political left and right — led to a degradation in the American government's ability to carry out ambitious undertakings and even to fulfill its basic responsibilities toward its citizens. The result was what he calls "the often-hapless Leviathan we behold today: an American state whose vaulting ambitions are all too frequently mocked by its faltering follow-through." The failure of government institutions during the Covid-19 pandemic was a paradigmatic example of the consequences of declining state capacity. This failure, combined with other recent crises such as the 2007-08 financial crisis, is shaking public trust in liberal democracies around the globe. In this interview, Brink lays out a way to strengthen liberal democracy by bolstering state capacity and laying down the intellectual preconditions for constructive problem-solving. Whether this approach can succeed politically in overcoming the forces of populist reaction and what he calls "civilizational rot" remains to be seen.

Today Andrew speaks with Vienna-based Finnish/Russian violinist Irma Niskanen, founding member of the Interessensgemeinschaft Freie Musikschaffende (Austrian Association of Freelance Musicians), about how the lockdown in Austria is affecting freelance musicians, the support structures in place to help those in need, as well as the aftermath of the Köck/Haider affair this past August.

In this episode, we discuss artistic practices focused on public spaces together with artists Chloë Bass and Mark Niskanen. What can collaboration mean in an artistic process? How has the pandemic affected the artists' practices? How can institutions better support artists making work for vast audiences outside museum walls? The episode features audio documentation of the piece Ghost Light (2020) by artists Mark Niskanen and Jani-Matti Salo, and cultural anthropologist Inkeri Aula. The episode is accompanied by an essay on public art and abolition by Chloë Bass, which can be accessed on the FCINY's website. Chloë Bass is a multiform conceptual artist working in performance, situation, conversation, publication, and installation. Mark Niskanen is a multidisciplinary artist working with lens-based media, sound, music, and installations. Primarily working in collaboration with Jani-Matti Salo, the artist duo Niskanen & Salo creates installations that weave together everyday phenomena and technologies. Withstanding is hosted by Elina Suoyrjö, FCINY's Director of Programs. Visuals by TSTO / Jonatan Eriksson. Theme & editing by Retail Space, a Brooklyn-based composing duo. https://fciny.org/projects/withstanding
The different species of Galapagos finches, with their specially evolved beaks that allow them to eat specific foods, helped Charles Darwin understand that organisms can evolve over time to better survive in their environment. Now, nearly 200 years later and thousands of miles away, biologists are learning some surprising lessons about evolution from northern Norwegian populations of the humble house sparrow (Passer domesticus).Darwin's finches evolved on the exotic, volcanic Galapagos Islands. NTNU's house sparrows are dispersed over a group of 18 islands in Helgeland, in an archipelago that straddles the Arctic Circle.Every summer since 1993, when NTNU Professor Bernt-Erik Sæther initiated the House Sparrow Project, a group of biologists has travelled to the islands collect data on the sparrows. They capture baby birds, measure different parts of their bodies, take a tiny blood sample, and then put a unique combination of coloured rings on their legs that help researchers identify the birds throughout their lifetime.Those decades of research have given researchers information that can be helpful in managing threatened and endangered species. They have also done some experiments where they made evolution happen in real time — and then watched what happened when they let nature run its course.And then there was the series of experiments where they learned more than you might want to know about sparrow dating preferences, and about rogue sparrow fathers who court exhausted sparrow mothers — and then fathered children with the cute little she-bird next door. Our guests for today's show were Henrik Jensen, Thor Harald Ringsby and Stefanie Muff. You can find a transcript of the show here.

What motivated the rioters to buy plane tickets and storm the Captol? Was it a pre-meditated, organized coup or something more spur-of-the-moment? And what's the future of the Republican Party, given that so many base voters still support Trump? The Week's Damon Linker joins Niskanen's Geoffrey Kabaservice to discuss the intellectual, psychological, political, and socio-cultural forces behind the January 6 riots, and if/how moderates can play a role in bringing the U.S. back to normalcy.
In pre-draft news we were NOT expecting, Matt Niskanen has decided to retire from hockey! We wish him well, but that creates a gap on our blue line and some interesting cap implications. We discuss our internal options at defense, as well as possible free agent targets for the slot, including Alex Pietrangelo, Torey Krug, Tyson Barrie, Kevin Shattenkirk and more. The Flyers took immediate steps and re-signed Justin Braun at 1.8 AAV and we rate that contract as well. Then we turn our attention to tonight's NHL Draft. Who do we think the Flyers will pick at 23? Who do we want them to pick? What are our other predictions for the draft?SHOW NOTES: Follow us on Twitter @LockedOnFlyersFlyers Fun Thing - Flyers draft Sean CouturierSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Coach and Cole continue their 2018 Pigskin Preview series as Chase Summerfield represents the Superior Spartans on the Culver's Flavor of the Day Hotline. We ask Chase, how he is able to make plays all over the field from the defensive end position, talk about last season, goals for this season, and Chase tells us which schools are interested in him at the collegiate level. Chase goes through the Coach and Cole Fast 5, where he tells us who his favorite football coach ever is.We talk about Green Bay Packers and Minnesota Vikings training camp getting underway to lead off the show. Coach brings up old cartoons and Coach and Cole debate which cartoons are the best (find our poll on social media)In the Twin Ports Sports segment we chat about Hermantown Hawks football, Matt Niskanen and the Stanley Cup and more. To close out the show we introduce our new Shout Out segment.
In this episode, we've got 34-year-old Andy Newell for you. He's a longtime staple of the U.S. Ski Team and another proud Vermonter. A few weeks ago we released our interview with climate-justice activist and Vermont resident Bill McKibben. After the interview, we received a few comments that spoke to the perceived large carbon footprint of World Cup skiing and possible changes that might be implemented to curb that environmental impact. With that in mind, we called up Andy Newell, who himself is a climate activist to address some of the questions. We spoke to Newell on Jan. 4 while he was in Seefeld, Austria, prepping for last weekend's World Cups. American Andy Newell (l) follows Norway's Johannes Høsflot Klæbo (r) and Finland's Iivo Niskanen (c) during their classic-sprint quarterfinal at the World Cup on Jan. 20 in Planica, Slovenia. Klæbo went on to win that heat, ahead of Niskanen in second and Newell in fourth. (Photo: Fischer/NordicFocus) Newell will soon be in PyeongChang, South Korea, for his fourth Olympics. After traveling the globe for 14 years as a member of the U.S. Ski Team, Newell has had time to think about energy use and change on the World Cup.
