Oysters' Role in Living ShorelinesOysters can serve as an important environmental solution to shoreline restoration. Oyster reefs can provide habitat for hundreds of marine species, improve water quality (as an adult oyster can filter up to fifty gallons of water a day), and protect against erosion and storm surges. Oysters also help stabilize sediments and wave energy, which reduces coastal erosion and the impacts of sea-level rise. As filter feeders, oysters help remove excess nutrients from the water and maintain healthy water quality. This ecosystem service is especially important with urban and agricultural run-off entering waterways, as oysters filter excess nitrogen, which can help prevent harmful algal blooms. Oyster restoration is important for conservation as well, as within the past two hundred years nearly 85% of global oyster reefs have been lost from over harvesting, wetland loss, human development, pollution, and other anthropogenic factors. Oyster reefs also serve as natural flood control and sea-level rise solutions, and compared to man-made solutions like seawalls and levees, oyster reefs are more cost-effective and less disruptive to the environment. Oyster reef restoration is now being used for coastlines throughout the US, including New York, Moss Landing, and Newport Beach.Orange County Coastkeeper's ApproachOrange County Coastkeeper has led the shoreline restoration in Newport Beach since 2017, re-introducing both native Olympia oysters and native eelgrass. To build a habitats where Oysters could settle in Upper Newport Bay, Coastkeeper and its volunteers hand-sewed over 500 bags, using coconut coir, to transport 40,000 pounds of Pacific oyster shells. Many of the oyster shells were donated by local restaurants. Coconut coir is a natural fiber, allowing Orange County Coastkeeper to avoid introducing any plastics during the restoration process. Since the initial restoration, CoastKeeper has been monitoring the restored oyster beds yearly and found signs of healthier and more sustainable coastline. The Orange County Coastkeeper has also worked to restore eelgrass in the Upper Newport Bay. Eelgrass is a shallow coastal seagrass and foundational species, as it provides habitat and food for many juvenile fish, lobsters, and shellfish. Eelgrass has been targeted for restoration because it provides many critical ecosystem services from oxygen production and nutrient cycling, to providing “carbon service” as it absorbs carbon which helps fight ocean acidification. In 2012, Orange County Coastkeeper worked in collaboration with the Department of Fish and Wildlife staff at the Back Bay Science Center to plant 0.3 acres of eelgrass. The goals of their restoration were to increase the diversity or abundance of native species, establish a sustainable eelgrass habitat and restore the economic value of the recreational and commercial fishery in the Bay. The Coastkeeper's efforts have been successful: Upper Newport Bay now has over one acre of eelgrass habitat. Claire Arre is the Orange County Coastkeeper's Marine Restoration Director. In her role, she manages the shoreline restoration program and works to restore the health of Orange County waters. Arre graduated from California State University, Long Beach with a Bachelor of Science in Marine Biology and received her Master of Science degree in BIology from California State Polytechnic University, Pomona. In her free time, Claire volunteers at Cabrillo Marine Aquarium as a Whale Watch naturalist.

Episode 128: Food insecurity and obesity. Nausheen defines food insecurity, presents some statistics about obesity, and how food insecurity is linked to obesity. She ends her presentation with possible solutions to this problem.Written by Nausheen Hussain, OMS3, Western University of Health Sciences, College of Osteopathic Medicine of the Pacific. Editing by Hector Arreaza, MD.Welcome: You are listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast, your weekly dose of knowledge brought to you by the Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program from Bakersfield, California, a UCLA-affiliated program sponsored by Clinica Sierra Vista, Let Us Be Your Healthcare Home. This podcast was created for educational purposes only. Visit your primary care provider for additional medical advice.Arreaza: Hello, my name is Hector Arreaza. I am a family physician, currently practicing and teaching in the Central Valley of California. Today we will talk about an important and growing problem: Food insecurity and its relationship to obesity. I would like to introduce my guest today, Nasheen Hussain.Arreaza: Can you tell me what defines food insecurity? Nausheen: As defined by the U. S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), food insecurity is the limited availability of nutritionally adequate food or the limited access to this food. So, I want you to imagine you are living in a community where the closest grocery store is not within walking distance, you have no reliable access to transportation, and you are surrounded by liquor stores, McDonald's, and Burger King. Now you can see the two parts of that definition: the grocery store with healthy food exists, but it is too far, and you can't get to it. Whereas within walking distance is nonnutritious food. I want to challenge our audience to pay attention to these two concepts in the communities around them.Arreaza: I have noticed a concentration of fast-food places lining certain streets. Now that we understand the concept, do we know if there is a way to quantify or measure food insecurity? Nausheen: Yes, Dr. Arreaza. So, the term “food swamp” actually describes what you just stated. To answer your question, yes. Food insecurity is actually measured by the USDA by a 6-18 item questionnaire - asking questions such as: Were you worried if food would run out before you got money to buy more? It is conducted as an annual supplement to the Current Population Survey. Arreaza: The Current Population Survey (CPS) is the primary source of labor force statistics for the population of the United States. It is sponsored jointly by the U.S. Census Bureau (bee-uro) and the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). The CPS is conducted monthly. Nausheen: The 2021 questionnaire identified 12.5% of households in the U. S. as being food insecure. However, this may underestimate the true number of individuals who may be suffering from food insecurity. Arreaza: Screening for food insecurity is not been routinely done in many clinics. Food Insecurity: Preventive Services. An Update for This Topic is In Progress. LAST UPDATED: Jul 24, 2022. So now, let's talk about the connection of this to obesity. What factors in general increase the likelihood of obesity?Nausheen: Sure! Obesity is classified based on a person's body mass index or BMI, which is your weight in kilograms (or pounds) divided by the square of height in meters (or feet). A BMI of 30 or greater is considered to be in the obesity category. Obesity is affected by several factors, such as a person's genetics, level of activity, and a high-calorie diet consisting of low-nutrition food.Arreaza: How does food insecurity play into this? Nausheen: Think back to the example we discussed earlier. If a person is experiencing food insecurity due to a lack of access, they will use what is around them (fast food, 24-hour mart without fresh foods) so they can put food on the table. If it is due to financial inaccessibility, they will choose to, say, go to Jack in the Box for their $5.00 deals. Both of these lead to a diet filled with non-nutritious food. This shouldn't come as a surprise: most people that experience food insecurity are likely to be living in low-income communities. The generalization here is that these communities tend to have fewer parks, and if they are present, there tends to be a lot of litter and a cloud of unsafe space hovering over it. Arreaza: I see what you mean.Nausheen: These people will probably be less likely to go out for walks and take their kids out…leading to a sedentary lifestyle. The last association I see is that of mental health. People who are struggling to find food are likely to have stress due to their circumstances and there is a relationship that has been found between depression and the increased likelihood of developing obesity. As a recap, there are three effects of food insecurity that contribute to obesity: lack of adequate nutrition, lack of physical activity, and poor mental health. Arreaza: So, there are several factors of food insecurity that seem to be making individuals more likely to develop obesity. Why does it matter? Nausheen: Well obesity is the gateway to several other diseases such as diabetes and hypertension, which are known to the medical profession as "silent killer diseases." In short, what we typically refer to as "that person is larger built" can have major adverse effects on health and can substantially reduce a person's longevity and quality of life. If we can understand and reduce risks of developing obesity, we can prevent the onset of the disease and/or prevent the progression to more severe outcomes. To bring this more into perspective, the CDC found that from 2017-2020, 1 in 5 children had obesity and about 2 in 5 adults had obesity, with an overall prevalence of 41.9% in the U.S. Arreaza: Let's talk about possible solutions.Nausheen: I think the best solution to this issue has to be two parts. 1. Increased access to healthy foods. 2. Nutrition education on how foods you put into your body impact your health both now and long term. I work with urban farmers in Pomona, CA as part of a grassroots effort to increase access to nutritious foods. Arreaza: Tell me more about it.Nausheen: The system consists of several small-scale community farms that produce chemical-free, pesticide-free, fresh vegetables and fruits that are sold to the community members at a low price or a “pay what you can, take what you need” basis. I believe replicating this system in other communities is effective because 1. It is important for the people to know and trust where their food is coming from, and 2. People can volunteer to help the community farms thrive which not only allows for the sustainability of efforts but gives them a reason to be outside and be active which helps combat obesity! Arreaza: I believe nutrition education is a key element to combat obesity, but the battle is unfair. I see there needs to be a better effort from our government to control such things as the false advertisement of so-called “healthy foods” and “miracle supplements” that promise the cure of obesity. I feel like there needs to be more control of these vendors and pay for false science. Nausheen: Nutrition education itself is also important so that people understand what nutrients their bodies need, what foods can give it to them, how to cook those foods, and lastly how it all affects their health. This should start from elementary school with short lessons embedded into the school curriculum. Arreaza: Thank you for sharing that. This brings our episode to a close. If you are or if you know someone who is struggling with food insecurity, find some resources in your community such as food banks, Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC), and other resources. Nausheen: Find community gardens where you live._______________Conclusion: Now we conclude episode number 128 “Food insecurity and obesity.” Nausheen explained that a lack of access to fresh and healthy foods is linked to increased risk of obesity. Dr. Arreaza called for improved controls for scammers and pseudoscientists that frequently commit fraud to patients who are struggling with obesity.This week we thank Hector Arreaza and Nausheen Hussain.

On this episode of the NHRA Insider Podcast, Cruz Pedregon and Leah Pruett join host Brian Lohnes to talk about strong late-season 2022 performances and the hopeful prospects for 2023 with renewed vigor and established teams. Cruz Pedregon took a leap at the end of 2022, swapping to a six-disc clutch program and bringing on Lee Beard to assist John Collins, his crew chief. This resulted in the most dominating win of his long career at the NHRA Finals in Pomona. Pedregon talks about being at the Chili Bowl with his midget race cars, his outlook for 2023, what the prospects are for the Raiders signing Tom Brady, and his testing plans for the winter. Leah Pruett's team was barely assembled before the 2022 season. They matured and won Denver and then had a strong car for the last stretch of the season. The win lights didn't come on, but the performance was certainly ramped up. Leah talks about the late Ken Block, transitioning to the role of driver and not a "do-all" person on a team, and how their stable crew will help them succeed in 2023. That and more on this episode of the NHRA Insider!

Claremont is rich in many resources, not the least of which are the smart, active and involved residents. One of the most prominent is Evaggelos Vallianatos, Ph.D , an ecopolitical theorist and environmental strategist, historian and outspoken activist in the fight against global warming. He describes this struggle as a matter of life-and-death for us all. In the first of what is planned to be a series of forthright and pointed interviews, Dr. Vallianatos posits that Claremont could, should - must - be a leader in this fight, and how Claremont could lead by example. Claremont's leadership in this regard - if the city leaders, businesses and residents so choose to accept the challenge - would benefit Claremont environmentally, financially, and by increasing the value of living in the city, all while making valuable and effective local contributions against global warming. One may not be able to change the world, but the measures to change things locally are well within reach.Dr. Vallianatos' Contact Information:evaggelosg@gmail.comhttp://vallianatos.blogspot.comhttps://www.counterpunch.org/author/evaggelos-vallianatos/https://muckrack.com/evaggelosvallianatosSelected Highlights of Dr. Vallianatos' Biography:Experience: Capitol Hill, 1976-78: International politics of food and agricultureUS Environmental Protection Agency, 1979-2004: environmental regulation, human and ecological risks of pesticides and industrialized agriculture, benefits of organic farming alternatives to industrialized farming, climate changeTeachingDr. Vallianatos has taught at several universities, including Pitzer College and California Polytechnic University, Pomona.Books by Dr. Vallianatos (Amazon Links)This Land is Their Land: How Corporate Farms Threaten the WorldThe Antikythera Mechanism: The Story Behind the Genius of the Greek Computer and its Demise Poison Spring: The Secret History of Pollution and the EPA Fear in the Countryside: The Control of Agriculture in the Poor Countries by Non-Peasant Elites.

Presented by Yoshimura Racing Brandon Hartranft's world was turned upside down a few short weeks ago by a freak crash at the Supercross track that left him with a long list of injuries, including several fractures in his back, broken ribs, a collapsed lung, a severe concussion, a dislocated hip, and a broken scapula. The HEP Suzuki racer was in the early laps of a training moto at the team's private testing facility in Northern California when his engine locked up and send him into the ground. Hartranft underwent a lengthy surgery to repair the damage to his body and was eventually transported by private jet to the Casa Colina rehab facility in Pomona, California. While Hartranft's prognosis is very promising, he has a long road to recovery ahead of him. He and his new wife plan to return to his home state of New Jersey once he is released from the rehabilitation facility, and whether or not he returns to racing someday remains to be seen. "For now, I am just so thankful that I have a second chance at life," he told us. We caught up with Brandon on the phone for this installment of the Yoshimura Midweek Podcast, and were amazed at how upbeat and positive he is...he even had the energy to tell us some funny golf stories! Road to Recovery has established a fund to help Hartranft, and we encourage you to contribute if you are in a position to.

Tom Woods 100 One of the goals of this program is to get at least 100 people within the Tom Woods orbit on the podcast. “Tom's orbit” is loosely defined, but in our case, Adam is #11. Less than ninety to go! #TomWoods100 Who is in the Tom Woods world? I have a website that will go live soon with discussions I've had with Tom Woods School of Life members.

He mentions the famous 2003 WSOP main event won by a “nobody,” Chris Moneymaker, a 27-year-old accountant. Yes, his real name. Moneymaker won a seat in the main event by winning a “satellite” online tournament. The poker craze took off for a while after Moneymaker's victory, known as the “Moneymaker effect.” Battle Born Podcast The Official Podcast of the Libertarian Party of Nevada Other Podcast mentioned: Part of the Problem w/ Dave Smith and Robbie “The Fire” Bernstein Reno “takeover” With Mises Caucus Takeover of Libertarian Party… (vdare.com) Libertarian Party Mises Caucus Potential Libertarian Party presidential candidates mentioned: Spike Cohen Dave Smith Former LP candidate mentioned: Jacob Hornberger Ron Paul presidential campaigns We talk a little about the 2008 and 2012 presidential campaigns of Dr. Ron Paul. I did not mention the essay I contributed to a book called Voices of Revolution: Americans speak out for Ron Paul. The ebook now appears to be free at lulu.com. This book was put together for the 2012 campaign. There was a call to action on the Tom Woods Show for a writing contest of some sort, so I fashioned an essay and it ended up leading off the entire book (after the introductory essay by the editor). I encourage people to download it. My essay starts on page 17. Nevada Ranked Choice voting fiasco “NOTA” – None of the Above — could it be on the way out? A good discussion on the Battle Born Podcast (with Adam) https://vimeo.com/776379960 1996 US Senate election in Massachusetts The odious Bill Weld (R) ran against the evil John Forbes Kerry (D). The California 12 district election from 1948 O'Leary mentioned that Richard Milhous Nixon garnered the nomination from both the Republican Party (of which he was a member and sitting congressman) and the Democratic Party. It is unclear if this is true—we took a cursory revisionist historical glance at the evidence. What is true is that the Democrats did not run a candidate against Nixon. Nixon was quite popular within the district—eastern Los Angeles area including Pasadena, Pomona, and Whittier—even with Democrats. The future president won 87.8% of the vote in 1948 compared to the 12.2% won by the Progressive Party candidate, Una W. Rice. Fair to say that most Democrats voted for Nixon. Ironically, the 12th congressional district is no longer a GOP stronghold. It is no longer in Southern California, either. Now it exists within the tony Democratic refuge of San Francisco. The district is also the bastion of one “Cruella Demented,” known to her constituents and those throughout the nation as (former?) Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi. Occasionally my hero, Dennis Miller, has been known to rant and once noted that Pelosi, looks like “a Muppet washed on hot.” I cannot disagree.

Every Life Matters episode makes itself applicable to the immediacy of the news and the times, but simultaneously, Mr. Johnston explains the times in their context. He underscores the evergreen and important principles that are needed in these times. This episode is the penultimate episode leading up to November elections, 2022. Brian underscores the many misunderstandings that pro-life individuals have come to, and how those misunderstandings, once clarified and then acted on, could have a dramatic impact on the nation. But this happens only through having a dramatic impact on one's immediate community, their county, and their state. This is done through the lawmakers which they elect, and which represent each of those jurisdictions. The recent Dobbs v. Jackson Supreme Court decision, which nullified the Roe v. Wade decision, explicitly stated this principle. The authority to make abortion laws lies with each American citizen, and is done through their elected representatives. All of these down-ballot jurisdictions are representative of the federal representative form of government which we have inherited in the United States. On the national level, that representative government is manifest through the two houses of Congress. Most reportage of the moment rightly focuses in this election on the critical decisions in balance within the United States House of Representatives and the United States Senate. These are essential political battles. But without understanding the principles employed there, and how these representatives are hired at each election, the lack of clarity in civics has brought great harm to the pro-life movement. Many efforts made by earnest pro-life individuals don't actually accomplish a change in the laws. Activity is not the same as accomplishment. This specific episode equips Christians of all backgrounds and denominations and even non-Christians in the pro-life movement, with an understanding of appropriate civic actions. These election activities are not arbitrary. They lead to legal accomplishment by lawmakers on behalf of the vulnerable innocent child and of all vulnerable innocent human lives. Brian quotes from Dr. Dobson's, “Family Talk” program of a previous week. In it, Dr. Dobson bemoans the fact that in presidential elections, 25 million Evangelicals don't even register to vote nationwide. But it gets worse. In every general election, 65 million Evangelical voters will admit they will vote but they will not vote down the ballot and will leave blank whole sections of their ballot in what is known as down ballot races. The 65 million American Evangelicals are disproportionately very, very pro-life. Amazingly, the power of their vote is disproportionately more powerful in down ballot races. This power is because in a state wide race - for example California - typically 4 to 8,000,000 ballots can be cast (sometimes more!) The difference of say 50 votes from one particular church in Pomona, California is mathematically a drop in a very, very large ocean. But as you descend down the ballot, (just as the properties of a nitrogen gas bubble expand the further down you descend), the value in properties of that ballot expand exponentially. California has 52 congressional districts - your vote is 52 times more impactful for your Congressional candidate than it is for a state-wide candidate. But continue down into the depths of civics. As you go down to the very local level, those 50 votes are exponentially huge in the city of Pomona and further down in the separately segregated geographic portion of Pomona that's known as a school district. But go further. Go down to District 5 of the school district board. That church in Pomona is in that district. Those 50 votes are now absolutely dispositive. They will help determine the disposition of that election and many school board candidates are elected by much, much smaller margins than 50 votes That same ballot being cast by you has exponentially more power in speaking to your representatives as the Dobbs vs. Jackson decision directed. Your voice is exponentially more powerful in your Congressional district and down to your very local community than it is state wide. So this is the reason in federal and state elections that it is critically important to work with a comprehensive pro-life team in civics. National Right to Life is the team of diverse pro-lifer's. National Right Life PAC and its state affiliate pacs, allow your vote to have a great power on the state and federal level. Your efforts with your local pro-life chapter has incredible power - expansive nitrogen bubble expansion - at the great depths of your local school board. Your same vote has devastating impact in the fight to keep abortion advocates out of your local schools (I, of course, speak metaphorically and urge you to consider these things deeply and as you ascend make sure you decompress, taking this knowledge with you. When you reach the surface please be natural about it. Go out and vote and vote with your local pro-life community.) California Prolife and many of the affiliates of National Right to Life Committee provide an important voter information tool. Historically, these were paper voter guides. But with the advancement in technology and the vast numbers of local candidates, the new vote.californiaprolife.org allows any citizen in the state of California to download their mailing address where they receive their ballot and every pro-life candidate and issue on their local precinct ballot is presented. When pro-lifers vote pro-life, down the entire ballot, they change their communities, they change their counties, they change their members of Congress, they change their states. Again, this tool is available at the California Prolife website www.californiaprolife.org, at the specific url Vote.californiaprolife.org, and national information directing you to each and every state affiliate is available at nrlc.org.

2 years ago, Michele Hottel joined me to give advice to homeowners so that they could learn from the mistakes of others. As I reflected on the past three years in the week of my podiversary, I listened again to this episode and wanted to revisit it. We talked about renovating while pregnant, building too much space, rising construction costs and more.

We had the pleasure of interviewing Taylor Acorn over Zoom video.Nashville based singer/songwriter, Taylor Acorn, is gearing up for her FIRST EVER tour supporting Real Friends. The tour will be visiting over 25 cities across North America including stops in Toronto,ON, Philadelphia, PA, New York, NY, Pomona, CA and more before wrapping on Tuesday, November 1st in Minneapolis, MN at The Garage.In August, Taylor shared her latest single, “Psycho,” an empowering pop rock anthem about taking your power back from a partner that has been gaslighting you and turning into the “bad guy” they think you are.Growing up in the early 90's & 2000's pop punk/ pop rock scene, for Taylor Acorn it was never a phase. Hailing from the small North Central Pennsylvania town of Wellsboro, Taylor had always dreamed of a career in music and in 2014, dropped out of Kutztown University to pursue just that, setting her sights for Nashville in 2017.She first left her mark in the country music world with her 2017 single “Put It In a Song” followed up by an EP she wrote solely on her own, which now garners nearly 50 Million streams, releasing several singles to follow. However, she never felt at home creating country music and in the midst of the 2020 pandemic went back to her pop punk roots with her cover of “Jamie All Over” on TikTok, sparking the attention of many elder emo fans as well as Mayday Parade themselves.Since then, she has gained the attention of many emo/pop punk bands with her newly rendered versions of their songs. Covers aren't the only thing that's been grasping the attention of fans though. With her infectiously relatable releases of “Do That Again”, “In My Head” and “Shapeshifting”, Taylor is now leaving her own footprint in the pop punk community giving her fans a place to feel safe and to feel heard, by tackling tough subjects such as mental health by sharing her own personal struggles. She wants to give her listeners a space where they can feel free and vulnerable, a place where healing is accepted no matter who you are or where you've come from.We want to hear from you!
