I believe I help give the people a nudge so they can fix themselves, because everyone has the ability to sort themselves out, to fix themselves. And sometimes you just need to give them a nudge. Phil Steward Because, you know, you can release one area of the body a lot better when you've taken all primal restrictions that are attached to it away. Otherwise, you can just waste a load of time trying to release an area that's being held tight by everywhere else. Phil Steward You know, you can use simple analogies like I use the suspension bridge analogy for the Skeleton. Skeleton suspension bridge. Where a chiropractor and osteopath to try and crack the deck of the bridge, which is your skeleton back into place.

In this second episode of our two-part series on forest carbon, we explore ways to enhance carbon storage and sequestration through silviculture. Whether it is through our choice of silvicultural system, how and when we employ intermediate treatments, or our tree retention practices, we will discuss how we can impact forest carbon and a host of other stand objectives. Join us for this fascinating conversation with Todd Ontl and Luke Nave from the Northern Institute of Applied Climate Science!To learn more, earn CEUs/CFEs, or to interact with the SilviCast team visit: https://www3.uwsp.edu/cnr-ap/WFC/Pages/WFC/Research-and-Development/TheCarbonCycleWontLeaveMeAlone.aspx
Continuing our conversations on climate change and forests
When it comes to climate change, we all have questions. As foresters some of our most fundamental climate change questions deal with how trees will respond. What species are projected to do well or not so well? What species will find new habitat where I work? How do I make informed management decisions in the face of change? On this episode of SilviCast, we dig into one tool that helps with these and other questions, The Climate Change Tree Atlas. Our guests this episode, Louis Iverson, USDA-FS Northern Research Station (retired), and Stephen Handler, USDA-FS Northern Research Station, Northern Institute of Applied Climate Science (NIACS), walk through The Climate Change Tree Atlas and discuss how we can use it to make better management decisions.Learn more about this episode and SilviCast at: https://www.uwsp.edu/cnr-ap/WFC/Pages/WFC/Research-and-Development/ClimateChangeHelpDesk.aspx

Peter Jennings is joined by Bruce Wolpe, Senior Fellow from the United States Studies Centre, to discuss President Biden's achievements so far, in areas such as the response to the pandemic and climate policy, and the domestic and foreign policy challenges the administration needs to manage. Recently, Taiwan has been receiving increased international attention, in part because of its successful pandemic response but also due to Cross-Strait tensions. ASPI Research Intern, Elena Yi-Ching Ho speaks to Wen-Ti Sung, Lecturer in the Taiwan Studies Program at the Australian National University about Cross-Strait relations, the potential for military conflict and whether the status quo is still sustainable.

Official Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) numbers released yesterday suggest a small decline in Darwin’s population during 2017-2018. Charles Darwin University’s Northern Institute demographer Dr Andrew Taylor said the numbers were not unexpected and were part of a longer-term population slow-down for the Territory. “The regional growth figures show a small overall decline in growth for the Greater Darwin area. In general, the ABS figures suggest net losses occurred in established suburbs while newer or greenfield areas like southern Palmerston see continued growth,” Dr Taylor said. Dr Taylor said the Territory’s long-term struggle with growth reflected increasing difficulties governments and businesses in Northern Australia faced in attracting and retaining workers and residents, with a population decline evident for the north as a whole for some years.

One of her major roles is to serve as the Adaptive Silviculture for Climate Change (ASCC) Coordinator, where she focuses on disseminating ASCC (www.adaptivesilviculture.org) project findings and translating them into outreach and training opportunities with land managers and scientists working to manage forests for climate change adaptation. Courtney also collaborates with the Northern Institute of Applied Climate Science (NIACS) (https://www.facebook.com/theNIACS/) on climate science communication and adaptation initiatives, and works to connect partners to NIACS programs, resources, and training opportunities. Prior to working for the Forest and Rangeland Stewardship Department, Courtney was the Wildfire Mitigation Education Coordinator for the Colorado State Forest Service (CSFS) (https://www.facebook.com/CSUForestRangelandStewards/) where she developed and implemented outreach, education, and public awareness campaigns related to forest health, fire adapted communities, and wildfire mitigation for a diverse range of audiences.

Courtney has a BS in Natural Resource Recreation and Tourism with a concentration in Environmental Communication, and minors in Conservation Biology and Music Performance, also from CSU. As an environmental communication major, Courtney learned about the importance of science communication and how important it is to be able to tell your story about your research and science to diverse audiences. The world of social media provides a whole suite of tools that can be utilized to help tell this story. When she is not working, Courtney loves playing violin in a local volunteer orchestra and traveling the world to experience new places.

The 92nd Joint Session of the Aristotelian Society and the Mind Association was held at the University of Oxford from 6 to 8 July 2018. The Joint Session is a three-day conference in philosophy that is held annually during the summer by the Aristotelian Society and the Mind Association. It has taken place at nearly every major university across the United Kingdom and in Ireland. Since 1910, the Joint Session has grown to become the largest gathering of philosophers in the country, attracting prestigious UK and international speakers working in a broad range of philosophical areas. Inaugurated by the incoming President of the Mind Association, the Joint Session includes symposia, open and postgraduate sessions, and a range of satellite conferences. This podcast is a recording of the fourth symposium at the Joint Session - "What Brains-in-Vats Can Know" - which featured Ofra Magidor (Oxford) and Aidan McGlynn (Edinburgh). Ofra Magidor is Waynflete Professor of Metaphysical Philosophy at the University of Oxford. She completed a BSc in Mathematics, Philosophy, and Computer Science at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and a BPhil and DPhil in Philosophy at the University of Oxford. Prior to her current appointment she was Associate Professor and Tutorial Fellow at Balliol College and the University of Oxford, and a Junior Research Fellow at Queen’s College, Oxford. Her research focuses on Metaphysics, Epistemology, Philosophy of Language, and Philosophical Logic. Aidan McGlynn is a lecturer in Philosophy at the University of Edinburgh, having previously worked at the Northern Institute of Philosophy at the University of Aberdeen, and having studied at the University of St Andrews and the University of Texas at Austin. He recently completed a series of papers and a monograph on knowledge first approaches to epistemology and the philosophies of language and mind. Since then, he has been working on evidence, first-person thought and self-knowledge, epistemic entitlement, pornography, epistemic injustice, silencing, and objectification.
We need philosophers and the rigor they bring to the discussions that inform our daily lives. It's critical–particularly in our current political climate–for all of us to consider what we mean by the words we use and the concepts we refer to. So what about love? What does that mean, really? To ask that question properly (but never entirely answer it), we turn to Dr. Carrie Jenkins, Professor of Philosophy at the University of British Columbia, and a Professor at the Northern Institute of Philosophy, University of Aberdeen. Dr. Jenkins just released a book called: What Love Is And What It Could Be. It’s a delightful read, and I highly suggest you pick it up.

Dr Herbie Newell discusses the development of cancer treatments and the role that partnerships between academia and the pharmaceutical industry have to play in this process. Dr Newell explains how the appropriate use of biomarkers could decrease the time taken to bring a new treatment to market, outlines the drug targets that he expects to be important in future cancer treatment and considers the role that the MDM-p53 signalling pathway could play in the development of epigenetic drug targets.
