Lori & I did an early morning walk around the trails at Turkey Creek this morning. The elevated boardwalk is having some repairs done, so we circled back and walked to the canoe rafting area and back. We did see a manatee eating some leaves and grasses. I gotta tell you though, I'm a bit on the nervous side to go anywhere where the water's edge is as low as the walking path…the gator thing and the signs all around about the gators... those areas make me nervous. Never have heard of an incident, but I don't want to be the first one!

*This episode was originally released on 4/26/23 on Patreon. It was on February 9, 1960, when a milkman stopped and laid on his horn in the middle of a bridge over Turkey Creek, near Morrison, Colorado. Some asshole was blocking the road with his station wagon. But after several honks, the milkman decided to get out and check on the driver. But wait, there was no driver! WTF! - the station wagon was empty, with the engine running, and the radio playing. The milkman, had a bad feeling about this…it just didn't smell right, ya know so he reported it to the police, who quickly figured out the owner of the car was none other than, Heir to, what would eventually become the 4th largest Brewing company in the US, ADOLPH COORS, III !!!

It seems like TV production gets all the attention in Knoxville, while the impact of the movie industry too often goes unnoticed. Sure, the Scruffy City isn't a top destination for actors, stunt doubles or directors of film. But when it comes to showing a movie, Knoxville-based Regal Cinemas has you covered – in a wide variety of ways. While part of this episode examines the future of the movie theater industry as a whole, Ryan and Brenna look at how Knoxville could be impacted by the struggles of Cineworld, Regal's parent company planning to file for bankruptcy.

A little before 8 on the morning of Feb. 9, Coors got into his International Travelall station wagon and started out on the 12-mile trip from his ranch in Morrison to the brewery in Golden, Colo. Three hours later, a milkman found the green-and-white car, with its motor running, abandoned on a rickety wooden bridge over Turkey Creek, two miles north of Coors' home.

Charles Burton and Associates consults to governments, educational institutions and businesses to support their programs in China. @cburton001 .. .. .. * On February 9, 1960, a milkman discovered an abandoned station wagon blocking the middle of the bridge over Turkey Creek near Morrison, Colorado. The milkman reported it to the local police, who determined the car belonged to Adolph Coors, III, who now appeared to be missing. The next day, the FBI's Denver Division, as a result of the federal kidnapping statue, joined the case to provide assistance to the state and local investigators. Coors' wife Mary received a typewritten ransom note and contacted the kidnapper, but she never heard back. The FBI Laboratory took a look at the evidence, including the note, while state and local law enforcement began pursuing a lead—a canary-yellow Mercury that had been seen in the area. The driver, Walter Osborne, had disappeared, but not before obtaining a gun, handcuffs, a typewriter, and an insurance policy—whose beneficiary was Joseph Corbett. As it turns out, Corbett's son, Joseph Corbett, Jr., had previously been convicted of murder but had escaped from prison in California. The FBI obtained a fugitive warrant for Corbett, Jr. and placed him on the Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list. In September 1960, some hikers came across pants bearing Coors' initials, which led investigators to Coors' remains. The case remained of significant interest to the public and the media, and ultimately, magazine readers in Canada broke the case wide open when they reported a man who resembled Corbett, Jr. to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and the FBI. The next day, the manager of a rooming house in Winnipeg reported a man who looked like Corbett, Jr. had stayed at her flophouse and was driving a fire-engine red Pontiac. This new information led a Vancouver Police officer to report a similar vehicle to the authorities, and with the assistance of the FBI Toronto Legal Attaché office, law enforcement approached the hotel room where Corbett, Jr. was staying, and he surrendered. Corbett, Jr. was tried in Colorado on the murder charge and was convicted and sentenced to life in prison. This month's FBI #ArtifactoftheMonth is the Coors kidnapping ransom note, which was analyzed by the FBI Lab and is believed to have been typed on Corbett, Jr.'s typewriter, which was taken from the automobile that law enforcement had recovered shortly after Coors' disappearance.

火鸡是美洲特产,在欧洲人到美洲之前就已经被印地安人驯化。火鸡的英文是“Turkey(土耳其)”,因为欧洲人觉得它身黑头红(黑色羽毛的火鸡),很像土耳其服装。烤火鸡变成美国人重要的节日大菜已经有三百多年历史了。不过,据说当年来到美国的欧洲移民本来是想在过节时烤鹅来吃的,只可惜北美大陆上鹅的数量不多,很难找到,而火鸡却漫山遍野到处都是,于是就把烤鹅改成烤火鸡了。这种风俗延续了下来,圣诞节和感恩节大餐都要吃烤火鸡。火鸡体形大、生长迅速、抗病性强、瘦肉率高,被誉为“造肉机器”。火鸡肉不仅肉质细嫩、清淡,而且蛋白质含量丰富,胆固醇低、脂肪少,富含多种氨基酸,特别是蛋氨酸和赖氨酸都高于其它肉禽,维生素E和B族维生素也含量丰富,具有提高人体免疫力和抗衰老等神奇功效。重点词汇:chow down 吃饭;大快朵颐gobble vi. 贪食;咯咯叫1. About 46 million turkeys are cooked for Thanksgiving each year. 每年感恩节大约要吃4600万只火鸡。 不是每个人都在感恩节吃火鸡。根据国家火鸡联合会的统计,只有88%的美国人吃火鸡。3.

Brad Van Loenen builds Turkey Creek Mandolins in his workshop high above Denver in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. His unique designs are becoming synonymous with Colorado acoustic music. You can find information about his mandolins at tcmandolin.com.
TOPICThe Story of Turkey Creek: Self-Determination and Resilient Communities IN THIS EPISODE[01:46] Derrick Evans is introduced. [01:55] Derrick shares his background, which led to the Turkey Creek Community Initiatives. [14:46] Derrick reflects on what it felt like when he first moved to Boston and what kept him there. [22:31] Derrick talks about the impact of Hurricane Katrina and Hurricane Rita on Gulfport and on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. [31:59] Is the Gulf Coast Fund what Derrick meant by resilient communities? [32:48] Derrick discusses his definition of climate change. [36:03] Derrick agrees that people in Gulf Coast communities saw the climate changing. [37:34] Derrick describes the documentary film “Come Hell or High Water” and mentions the impact it’s had on Turkey Creek. [43:43] Derrick tells about the things that communities can do to make themselves better prepared to withstand or recover from climate impacts. [46:35] If environmental-protection responsibility gets pushed back to the states, what will that mean in terms of work with Gulf Coast communities around resilience and Mississippi DEQ? Are there good working relationships there? [49:08] Derrick adds his closing thoughts. [56:06] Derrick provides one change that would lead to more resilient, more sustainable, and more equitable communities. [56:31] Derrick states the action that listeners can take to help build a more resilient, equitable, and sustainable future. [56:43] Derrick shares what resilient Gulf Coast communities look like 30 years from now. GUEST/ORGANIZATION Derrick Christopher Evans is the director of Turkey Creek Community Initiatives and a managing advisor to the Gulf Coast Fund for Community Renewal and Ecological Health. Since 2001 he has worked to help protect and revitalize his coastal Mississippi community and sister communities throughout the region. Prior to that he taught civil rights history at Boston College and social studies in the Boston Public Schools. TAKEAWAY QUOTES“My community went from being entirely undeveloped—swamplands—to being sort of a pastoral, forested, agricultural type of thing where people were subsistence farmers and fishermen to a community that was the site of multiple coastal timber-industry employments and facilities.” “This is what, pretty much, TCCI’s m.o. has always been was to recognize the very long list of community ailments and challenges, turn those into an equally long, if not longer, list of possible prescriptions or remedies, including things that we had never thought of before, like coastal ecological restoration, which now is bearing fruit nearly twenty years later; historic preservation; even looking at a historic longstanding, uncleaned, EPA-toxic cleanup site and saying, you know what, that’s a historic site as well as a headache. Let’s use some creative visioning to frame this in such a way that it makes our circle bigger. When you have that list of possible solutions, it attracts from within the community and from without the community potential contributors to the problems that need to be solved.” “I had a teacher once—the greatest teacher I ever had—who told me that is was no accident that the overwhelming majority of the most impactful ‘spokespeople’ for the race—the black race—historically, like, Frederick Douglass, Dr. DuBois, even Louis Farrakhan, and so forth and so on, had spent formative time and years in and around Boston, Massachusetts.” “I remember when Hurricane Katrina hit, and my first thought was that this event is either going to…finish off Turkey Creek and its sister communities or open a door for their survival and transformation, particularly as the most not only impacted but instructive places on what not to do again.” “We’re not resigned to injustice, we’re not resigned to the structuring of privilege and access and inequitable ways; but we will not be resigned at all to inefficacy on our own parts.” RESOURCEShttp://bridgethegulfproject.org/...

Currently, he is on the faculty at San Jose State University, where he has taught since 1998. Lange continues to write and perform for stage and film, and lives in Oakland, California.
