Podcasts about Vinca

Brčál je starý název pro barvínek (latinsky Vinca) a dostatečně vypovídá o barvě listů. Barvínek je jednou rostlinou z čeledi toješťovité, které jsme zvyklí vídat v tropech a subtropech, ale barvínek menší (Vinca minor)je regulérně původním evropským druhem. A nebyli by to lidé, aby se nechopili přírodní formy a nezačali šlechtit.

When the spring erupts in tones of yellow, lemon, gold, and that weird orangey-mustard that you're not sure you love, it's time to bring on the blue. Leslie Harris and Marianne Willburn have suggestions for how to achieve that in your garden, and dip briefly into the controversy surrounding the [almost] universally loved daffodil. From blue bells in the woods to blue spells when you're pulling out Vinca minor by the fistful, they'll touch on some of gardeners' favorites, and get sucked down a rabbit hole or two on their way.For full show notes, links and laughs, subscribe at The Garden Mixer's Substack.

Oggi iniziamo parlando insieme a Graziano Bullegas di Italia Nostra Sardegna della valutazione di incidenza ambientale presentata solo ora, dopo anni di esercitazioni andate avanti a Teulada senza salvaguardia, dall'esercito per quanto riguarda le esercitazioni militari nel poligono. Vedremo un po' cosa e perché succede, e parliamo poi di sanità, della riforma sanitaria e delle critiche che ne accompagnano la discussione. Ci soffermiamo anche sul tema delle terre rare, dato che la miniera di Silius avrebbe delle "potenzialità" in materia, e chiudiamo poi la parte di cronaca con l'approvazione della normativa specifica per la salvaguardia e valorizzazione delle specie vegetali autoctone Nella seconda parte della rassegna vi raccontiamo invece gli articoli della settimana su Sardegna che cambia, e poi in chiusura gli eventi in arrivo per il weekend.

We talk with Diane Blazek, the executive director of All-America Selections (AAS), exploring the newly announced 2025 winners of top-performing garden plant varieties. Each year,  AAS winners undergo rigorous trials, evaluated by expert judges, to ensure they will thrive in diverse U.S. and Canadian climates. Diane highlights standout varieties like the high-yielding tomato variety, “Tonatico”, the sweet and crunchy “Pick-N-Pop” pepper, and the visually striking “Murasaki Fioretto” cauliflower. We also cover herbs and flowers, including the resistant “Piedmont” basil and the vibrant Zinnia, “Zydeco Fire”. This episode is rich with advice for both novice and experienced gardeners seeking the latest quality varieties for their gardens.Previous episodes, show notes, links, product information, and transcripts at the home site for Garden Basics with Farmer Fred, GardenBasics.net.

La farmacología tiene una larga historia que se remonta a la antigüedad, cuando se utilizaban plantas y hierbas con fines curativos de forma empírica. Con el tiempo, esta disciplina fue evolucionando a través de diversas etapas: la mágica, la religiosa y la científica. No fue sino hasta tiempos relativamente recientes que la farmacología se estableció como una rama separada e independiente de la medicina. El concepto de principio activo es fundamental en farmacología. Se conoce como principio activo a aquella sustancia contenida en un medicamento que es responsable de su acción farmacológica. El uso de principios activos provenientes de plantas se remonta a la prehistoria. Con el avance de la química y otras ciencias, se logró aislar moléculas específicas de plantas medicinales e identificar su estructura química. Un claro ejemplo son los alcaloides vincristina y vinblastina, obtenidos de la planta Vinca y ampliamente utilizados como agentes antineoplásicos. Otro concepto clave es el de dosis, que se refiere a la cantidad precisa de principio activo que contiene una forma farmacéutica o medicamento. La dosis se expresa en unidades de masa o volumen. Cuando se administra una cantidad excesiva de medicamento, superior a la dosis máxima tolerada, se produce una sobredosis. Las sobredosis pueden tener consecuencias graves e incluso letales. Estrechamente relacionado con la dosis está el concepto de ventana terapéutica. Se conoce como ventana o margen terapéutico al rango de dosis efectiva de un fármaco en el cual se obtienen los efectos terapéuticos buscados sin provocar toxicidad. Por encima de este margen se halla la dosis tóxica (DT50) y por debajo la dosis ineficaz. El índice terapéutico o margen de seguridad compara numéricamente ambos límites. Cuando más amplio sea este margen, mayor seguridad tendrá el medicamento. Los principios activos por sí solos rara vez se administran directamente a los pacientes. Es necesario formularlos en lo que se conoce como formas farmacéuticas. Las formas farmacéuticas son preparaciones que contienen el fármaco mezclado con otras sustancias denominadas excipientes, las cuales le dan una presentación adecuada para su dosificación y administración. Algunos ejemplos de formas farmacéuticas son las tabletas, cápsulas, jarabes, cremas, inyectables, etc. Otros conceptos importantes son la biodisponibilidad y la bioequivalencia. La biodisponibilidad se refiere a la velocidad y extensión de absorción de un principio activo. Indica que fracción del fármaco alcanza su sitio de acción tras ser administrado por determinada vía. Dos medicamentos son bioequivalentes si contienen el mismo fármaco, en igual dosis y forma farmacéutica, y demuestran una biodisponibilidad comparable, de modo que sus efectos terapéuticos son esencialmente los mismos. En el mercado farmacéutico coexisten dos categorías principales de medicamentos: los innovadores o de patente y los genéricos. Los innovadores son desarrollados mediante investigación por los laboratorios farmacéuticos, los cuales obtienen la patente que les confiere exclusividad de fabricación y venta por determinado período. Transcurrido éste, otros laboratorios pueden fabricar versiones genéricas con ese mismo principio activo. Los medicamentos genéricos deben demostrar bioequivalencia con el innovador para ser autorizados e intercambiables con éste.

The Vinca culture of Serbia is one of the first human civilisations. Possibly the first to smelt copper, one of the earliest uses of a symbolic proto-script and a hyper industrious producer of advanced ceramics including the earliest anthropomorphic life size clay busts. Yet few know of the wonders of this ancient culture. In this episode, I spoke to the historian Ben Elliott who travelled to Serbia to make a film called Quest for Vinca which aims to increase awareness of these fascinating Neolithic people.

durée : 00:46:08 - Les Nuits de France Culture - par : Albane Penaranda - L'émission "Un livre des voix" proposait en 1970 une lecture à plusieurs voix du roman initiatique de Colette "Le Blé en herbe". Il met en scène deux adolescents, Vinca et Philippe, qui découvrent l'amour charnel. Ce sujet fit scandale en 1923, année de parution du roman.

Abstract: Parkinsons disease (PD) is an incurable neurodegenerative disorder caused by the selective loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta. Current therapies are only symptomatic, and are not able to stop or delay its progression. In order to search new and more effective therapies, our group carried out a high-throughput screening assay, identifying several candidate compounds able to suppress motor defects in DJ-1{beta} mutant flies (a Drosophila model of familial PD) and to reduce oxidative stress (OS)-induced lethality in DJ-1-deficient SH-SY5Y human cells. One of them was vincamine (VIN), a natural alkaloid obtained from the leaves of Vinca minor. Our results showed that VIN is able to suppress PD-related phenotypes in both Drosophila and human cell PD models. Specifically, VIN reduced OS levels in PD model flies. Besides, VIN diminished OS-induced lethality by decreasing apoptosis, increased mitochondrial viability and reduced OS levels in DJ-1-deficient human cells. In addition, we have demonstrated that VIN is able to exert its beneficial role, at least partially, by the inhibition of voltage-gated Na+ channels. Therefore, we propose that these channels might be a promising target in the search for new compounds to treat PD, and that VIN constitutes a potential therapeutic treatment for the disease.

Giacomo Agostini, pilota motociclistico italiano, è tornato su Radio Number One per parlare della vittoria di Francesco BagnaiaOggi mercoledì 9 novembre, ai microfoni dei Degiornalist con Fabiana Paolini e Claudio Chiari, è tornato ospite Giacomo Agostini, pilota motociclistico italiano e vincitore di ben 15 campionati mondiali. Agostini ci ha parlato della recente vittoria di Francesco Bagnaia, detto Pecco, con la Ducati al mondiale della MotoGP, vittoria storica in quanto erano anni che un motociclista italiano non vinceva il massimo titolo a bordo di una moto italiana. Il grande pilota italiano ha poi spiegato come si possa mantenere un clima sereno e di amicizia fuori dalla pista e il suo personale pensiero sui migliori piloti del momento.LE VITTORIE - Nella lunga storia di vittorie di Agostini non sempre è stato facile sostenere la pressione, «vincere un campionato del mondo è difficile, ma vincere il secondo lo è ancora di più. Il pubblico non ti permette più di sbagliare perchè da te pretende sempre la vittoria».

"Le Classico" de Sébastien Ministru : "Le Blé en herbe" de Colette. "Son ami plongea brusquement, saisit un pied de Vinca et la tira sous la vague. Ils burent ensemble, reparurent crachant, soufflant, et riant comme s'ils oubliaient, elle ses quinze ans tourmentés d'amour pour son compagnon d'enfance, lui ses seize ans dominateurs, son dédain de joli garçon et son exigence de propriétaire précoce." Tous les étés, Philippe et Vinca se retrouvent en Bretagne dans une maison qui abrite leurs jeux et leur insouciante complicité. Mais l'enfance disparaît, laissant place à l'adolescence et aux sentiments troubles et nouveaux qui appartiennent à cet âge. La souffrance, la trahison et une mystérieuse dame en blanc viennent rompre la fidélité de Phil et troubler l'âme limpide de Vinca. Publié en 1923, Le blé en herbe s'imposa par son audace et son anticonformisme. Le scandale n'est plus de mise aujourd'hui, mais parmi l'oeuvre de Colette, l'histoire de Phil et Vinca reste le roman le plus subtil et le plus juste sur la fin de l'enfance.

Adrien Dénouette et Thibaut Sève pour le docu "Brad Pitt : La revanche d'un blond", à voir le 16 octobre à 23h05 sur Arte. Au cours de ses trente ans de carrière, Brad Pitt n'a eu de cesse de briser son image archétypale de sex-symbol. Retour sur la trajectoire inattendue d'un acteur cinéphile et engagé, parvenu à s'émanciper des carcans du glamour. C'est un gamin élevé à Springfield, Missouri, au sein d'une famille conservatrice, qui grandit au contact d'une nature préservée. Tombé amoureux du cinéma à l'adolescence, il se rêve en Robert Redford. Un jour, sans prévenir personne, l'audacieux quitte son paisible cocon pour tracer sa route vers Hollywood et y tenter sa chance. L'aventure débute à la télévision. Mais alors qu'il s'y sent vite à l'étroit, son apparition dans une publicité pour une célèbre marque de jeans dévoile toute la puissance de son sex-appeal... Aux yeux du grand public, Brad Pitt est né comme un archétype : un ange blond tombé du ciel, sous l'apparence de l'auto-stoppeur qui tape dans l'œil de Geena Davis dans Thelma et Louise. Bien que son talent crève l'écran (en plus de sa plastique, Ridley Scott sait mettre en valeur son désarmant naturel), il devient vite un homme objet. D'autant qu'Et au milieu coule une rivière, Entretien avec un vampire ou Légendes d'automne l'érigent en sex-symbol absolu des années 1990. Le comédien le déplore, assailli par les cris d'admiratrices en folie sur le plateau du célèbre talk-show d'Oprah Winfrey. De Seven à Inglourious Basterds en passant par Fight Club ou Le stratège, il va cependant réussir à substituer une autre image à ce cliché : celle d'un acteur à la présence intense abîmant volontiers sa jolie gueule et doué pour l'autodérision, qui met son statut de star au service de rôles audacieux... Adrien Dénouette et Thibaut Sève, déjà auteurs de l'excellent Jim Carrey L'Amérique démasquée, retracent le parcours aussi brillant qu'intègre d'un sex-symbol devenu un acteur phare de son époque. "Inspiré de faits réels" de Franck Istasse : "La Prophétie des ombres", un film réalisé par Mark Pellington avec Richard Geere, sorti en 2002 et qui s'inspire fidèlement du livre de John Keel. Film qui se passe à Point Pleasant (USA) au début des années 70 où de nombreux témoins voient apparaître "The Mothman", l'homme-papillon...

"Credo che gli italiani abbiano il diritto di scegliere come hanno fatto i tedeschi e come fanno tutti gli altri. Ciascuno pensi alle proprie contraddizioni, alle proprie alleanze di governo. Se gli italiani decideranno così non sarà il cancelliere Scholz a cambiare i giudizi", dice il leader di Italia Viva dopo le dichiarazioni dei socialdemocratici tedeschi.xb5/ads/gsl

This episode we talk to Film Finance professional and Entertainment Attorney Vinca Jarrett.  She tells us a bout falling into the film finance world after being an environmental lawyer, all of the things filmmakers do wrong when budgeting their films and everything you ever wanted to know about modern marketing in the Indie film world.

After a scintillating fox update (if you follow me on Instagram, you know that's a thing) I choose the Silver and Gold, or Ajania pacifica as the Plant of the Week. Sister Sue and I delve deep into how to plant bulbs, and maybe what bulbs to plant, and I deal with questions on Vinca minor, moving peonies and what to do in the garden this week. Shout out to the Home Grown National Park-- $20 for 20 million acres. It's not a great real estate deal, but it's a great cause.

Toscana e pane sciocco sono quasi sinonimi per i foresti, sempre pronti a chiederci perché mai siamo gli unici in Italia a non usare sale per fare il pane. Come molti altri stereotipi legati alla nostra regione, anche questo è fondamentalmente sbagliato. Certo, il pane più diffuso sulle nostre tavole è quello "sciapo", con la crosta spessa e ben cotta, ma i territori della Toscana nascondono moltissimi tipi di pane che non hanno niente a che vedere con il classico "panaccio". Seguiteci in un rapido giro culinario e scoprite con noi dieci tipi di pane "eretico", dal pane garfagnino alla panina aretina, dal semelle fiorentino al pane di Montegemoli. Dentro ci potete trovare dalle patate alle castagne, dallo zafferano al rosmarino e, tranne alcuni rari casi, parecchio sale. Alcune di queste specialità sono riuscite a farsi strada nel resto della penisola e rendendo popolari i borghi d'origine. Voi come la pensate? Siete affezionati al nostro buon vecchio panaccio o siete aperti a provare alcune di queste specialità locali? Conoscete una ricetta di pane delle vostre parti che meriterebbe maggiore considerazione?

L'invité du jour est une personne que j'ai eu la chance de rencontrer très récemment, par l'intermédiaire de mon ancienne professeur de master 2, Vinca. Passionné de tourisme depuis ses études, puis au fur et mesure du questionnement et de l'application d'un tourisme plus positif, plus respectueux de l'environnement, François a décidé de mettre son expertise de dirigeant d'hôtel, de voyageur du monde, au service d'un rapport plus naturel au monde qui nous entoure. Fondateur du podcast (X)perientiel, pour un tourisme plus durable, et du coaching Big Waves, pour trouver (ou retrouver) sa raison d'être, François Huet enclenche les vagues du changement pour le tourisme de demain. Dans cet épisode, nous questionnons donc le sens du terme « touriste », nous parlons de l'hyperpuissance que croit posséder l'homme qui veut changer le climat et de notre appropriation de la terre... Bon, pour finalement revenir sur une touche plus positive et calme, ton dont tu profiteras d'ailleurs durant toute la discussion, avec l'essentiel : le moment présent, celui qui nous aidera à retrouver l'équilibre perdu… Belle écoute !

Scritto e raccontato da Diego Alverà, tratto dal libro “Oltre. Storie di eroi e antieroi dello sport” (Ultra Sport). Jaques Anquetil fu uno dei più forti ciclisti della storia. Vinse cinque Tour de France, fu il primo a conquistare tutte e tre le maggiori competizioni (Tour, Giro e Vuelta), iniziò nel 1953 a soli 19 anni. Più tattico che spettacolare, in quel suo ciclismo faticoso e spietato, in quel suo modo radicale ed estremo di prendere la vita, Jacquot non metteva mai malizia. Perché quello era il modo che aveva scelto per combattere le convenzioni e sconfiggere la stupida prevedibilità. E pazienza se poi il pubblico non gradiva, se qualcuno era sempre pronto a criticarlo. Perché per lui quello era il prezzo: o tutto o niente.

In what is sure to be a classic set of recordings, Vicki Noble joins Sean Marlon Newcombe and Dawn "Sam" Alden to discuss the matriarchal roots of Western Civilization. "Old Europe" is the term given to a set of advanced cultures that lasted for thousands of years west of the Black Sea. The topic so controversial, mainstream scholarship often refuses to address it. Vicki's knowledge and detail of this history (or "herstory") is not to be missed.

What was the culture like of the Old Europe matriarchies? Exquisite artwork and beautiful textiles, these were advanced civilizations-- belying the old tropes of "primitive" matriarchies. Yes, it is possible to have peace and advancement. We've had it before, but forgotten it. These civilizations provide a model of hope for what our culture can become again.

What is the true relationship between the development of agriculture and the development of matriarchy? Often, the development of agriculture is seen as the "end of eden" for human existence-- but is this the case? Join us as we discuss how matriarchy and agriculture went hand-in-hand and how these same cultures also developed touching ancestor rituals around the preservation of skulls.

Scholars often throw roses at the feet of the Indo-European conquerors known as "Yamnaya." Even questioning their brutality is considered deceitful and offensive by some. Still these men destroyed the beautiful matriarchies of Old Europe and did so unsparingly: crushing the men and abducting the women. Was this invasion the beginning of war or are the Yamnaya unfairly blamed for behavior that was already common and normal? Join us as we explore the end of matriarchy and the conquest of the patriarchs.

Omelia della XIX domenica del Tempo Ordinario A1Re 19,9-13; Rm 9,1-5; Mt 14,22-33Quante onde e quanti venti tentato a volte di affondarmi nel mare della vita... spesso sembrano così alte e forti da non lasciarti scampo. Allora la paura prende il sopravvento. E se imparassi ad attraversarle invece che a scavalcarle?

En este episodio veremos cómo el tamaño de las hojas de nuestras plantas las podemos analizar como texturas. Empecemos entonces con una aproximación. ¿Qué es la textura? Cuando hablamos de ella, y en particular de las plantas, hacemos referencia por un lado al aspecto visual en su apariencia rugosa o suave de acuerdo con el efecto que se genera con la incidencia de la luz. Y por otro, al táctil, aunque tal vez lo pasemos más desapercibido en líneas generales. Podemos definir entonces tres tipos de texturas: fina, media y gruesa. Cada una tiene un uso y unas características distintivas. Textura fina Como podrás imaginarte aquí encontraremos las plantas con hojas pequeñas y con muchas ramitas pequeñas. A la vista resultan relajantes, y a la vez dan la sensación de lejanía cuando se colocan en un último plano. Dicho esto, ti tienes un jardín pequeño o una terraza, al colocarlas de fondo darán la sensación de profundidad y de mayor amplitud. Los arbustos con estas características son los que empleamos para el arte topiario. Plantas con textura fina: brezos (Erica australis, E.gracilis y otras variedades), cufia o érica (Cuphea hyssopifolia), dichondra (Dichondra repens), tomillo (Thymus vulgaris), boj (Buxus sempervirens) y más. Textura gruesa Hojas grandes y gruesas son las que conforman este tipo de texturas. Son plantas que normalmente las usaremos como elementos aislados o en pequeños grupos, pero con un gran impacto visual. Generan visualmente una sensación de reducción del espacio por lo que no debemos abusar de su empleo. Tampoco es recomendable cuando los jardines son pequeños, salvo que juguemos con las plantas de textura fina como te comentaba antes. Las plantas con textura gruesa, aquellas que poseen hojas grandes, son características de los ambientes tropicales. Por ejemplo: Costilla de Adán (Monstera deliciosa), gomero (Ficus elástica), oreja de elefante (Alocasia odora) y banano (Musa × paradisiaca) entre otras. Textura media Aquellas plantas con hojas de tamaño promedio como las del azarero se emplean normalmente como elementos de transición entre los otros tipos para evitar un salto brusco entre el grupo de plantas de hojas muy finas y las de hojas grandes. Plantas con textura media: olea texana (Ligustrun japonicum), vinca (Vinca major), azarero (Pittosporum tobira) y más. Pero antes de terminar te cuento sobre otras sensaciones que las formas de las hojas generan. • Si poseen pelitos (pubescentes) como la oreja de liebre (Stachys lanata), nos invitan a acariciarlas. • Si tienen forma de plumas como las de algunos helechos y acacias también nos dan ganas de tocarlas. • Si son puntiagudas o transformadas en espinas, nos pueden resultar agresivas y harán sentir cierto rechazo. • Las hojas con pecíolo largo, que cuelgan del tallo, nos generan sensaciones de movimiento cuando una brisa las mueve. También pueden ser relajantes e incluso parecernos refrescantes. Por ejemplo, el abedul (Betula pendula) y la Ginkgo biloba. ¿Te animas ahora a descubrir las sensaciones que te despiertan tus plantas? Como siempre, no te olvides de pasar por mi web y llevarte algunos de los PDF que tengo para vos sobre paisajismo sustentable, flores comestibles. Sólo te pido un correo para enviarte el enlace y tu nombre. Más adelante te enviaré más información relacionada con las plantas y los jardines. Muchas gracias

Ecco il “secondo tempo” di un tema che ci avete a gran voce richiesto: lo sport! Da quelli insoliti, alle novità e altri grandi classici per questo nuovo appuntamento con la fatica, il gioco di squadra e la voglia di vincere.Come sempre una classifica di 10 posizioni e 3 rubriche speciali. L'articolo Vinca il migliore – Seconda parte proviene da RadioAnimati.

In episode 96 UNP founder and curator Grant Scott is in his shed considering photography's need to be at the centre of the creative arts, setting up collaborative collectives, and the positive creative aspects of difficulty! Plus this week photographer Vinca Peterson takes on the challenge of supplying Grant with an audio file no longer than 5 minutes in length in which she answer's the question ‘What Does Photography Mean to You?' Vinca Petersen got her first camera at the age of seven or eight. In 1990, age 17 she moved to London, telling her parents she was going to art school. Instead, she moved into a squat, and got involved in alternative politics as well as the rave/free party scene, occasionally working as a model in fashion spreads and music videos. Vinca met the photographer Corinne Day, who became a mentor of sorts, occasionally giving her cameras, film, and confidence to continue taking her pictures. She adopted a nomadic lifestyle travelling Europe, living in trucks until her son was born in 2005. Throughout, this time she took photographs, eventually collecting them into a book, No System published by Steidl in 1999 and reissued in 2019, when it was included in one of the first ever displays of photo books at Tate Modern, London. In 2010, Petersen created Future Youth Project, working with children in Thanet, Kent and in the Ukraine, where provision for children with learning difficulties has been limited. Her alter ego ArtNurse, popped up at the 2010 Paris Photo festival, Arles Photo and Brighton Photo Fringe dispensing gold glitter and administering vodka shots by syringe as well as dancing with strangers and selling postcards to raise funds for FYP. Before FYP, she persuaded the designer and founder of  the fashion brand Maharishi, Hardy Blechman, to design and donate a monumental inflatable that she took to orphanages and schools through Europe, Morocco, Western Sahara, Mauritania, Senegal, Gambia, Mali, Burkina Faso, Ghana, Romania and Ukraine. Recent photo books include Future Fantasy examining her earliest years during the second summer of love, and Deuce and a Quarter, created during a road trip across the American South made with three girlfriends. Vinca has participated in multiple group exhibitions and solo exhibitions of images and this year her work will be exhibited at the Martin Parr Foundation, Bristol. Petersen has never worked to commission. https://vincapetersen.com If you have enjoyed this podcast why not check out our A Photographic Life Podcast Plus. Created as a learning resource that places the power of learning into the hands of the learner.

Arne is back! - Arne Bro er tilbage på Filmskolen som leder af dokumentar-linjen. Han blev ellers sendt hjem med piber og trommer og blev dermed et af omdrejningspunkterne i konflikten mellem rektor Vinca Wiedemann og skolens elever. Men først blev Vinca fyret som rektor, og nu er Arne Bro altså tilbage på Filmskolen. Vi besøger skolen og mærker stemningen. Noter om angst - 23,8% af yngre kvinder lider af angst. En af dem er i studiet hos os i dag. Og det er hun blandt andet fordi hun er ved at komme ud på den anden side. Og har lavet en bog om det - en bog til alle de andre yngre kvinder, der bliver ramt af angsten og har brug for nogle gode kneb til at lære hjernen at styre sig. Vilde Peter Adolphsen - han er vildskab. Han er Punk. Han er manden der gav os Rynkekneppesygen... Og så er han også en af de yngste forfattere blandt de dygtige og vigtige af slagsen der har fået tildelt Statens Kunstfonds hædersydelse. Og i dag er han også gæst hos os. Værter: Tore Leifer og Jesper Dein.

"Kreativitet er ikke et talent - det overraskede mig meget at læse videnskabelig forskning om dét - det er noget der sker, mens man gør det. Så det kan trænes".

Kiosk torna oggi per una nuova puntata in cui spazieremo dall'Est della Germania alla Bosnia, seguendo un filo, spesso assai doloroso: quello della memoria. E a proposito di memoria, daremo voce anche a una memoria storica fondamentale per il nostro Paese. Radio Radicale, grazie a un'intervista che abbiamo fatto al suo vice caporedattore, Roberto Spagnoli. Dedichiamo, idealmente, questa puntata ai colleghi di questa radio, minacciata da un governo miope e ottuso che la vuole chiudere.Siamo a appena otto chilometri da uno dei luoghi simbolo della cultura tedesca, Weimar, dimora di Goethe e nome associato alla Repubblica di Weimar, che fra le due guerre ha permesso una grande stagione artistica e culturale. Qui oltre 50.000 persone, fra 1937 e 1943, persero la vita. Buchenwald, questo nome terribile, risuona anche nelle coscienze di noi italiani. Non solo lo spagnolo Jorge Semprún vi è stato prigioniero, infatti, ma, fra le tante nazionalità presenti, anche moltissimi italiani, in larga parte prigionieri politici. Come ci racconta lo stesso Semprún, questo lager ha un'altra particolarità: fu riutilizzato dopo la fine della guerra, quando divenne parte del territorio della DDR, per i prigionieri politici del regime comunista, ed è dunque un simbolo vivente, non solo della Shoah, ma anche dell'orrore dei totalitarismi del Novecento. Per conoscere meglio Buchenwald, la sua storia ma anche la realtà attuale di questo luogo della memoria, abbiamo intervistato Francesco Ferrari, ricercatore e docente all'Università di Jena, Coordinatore della scuola di dottorato Religion Conflict Reconciliation, autore di studi importanti sull'opera di Martin Buber.Le vicende attuali di Radio Radicale, a rischio di chiusura a causa dei tagli voluti dall'attuale governo, non hanno bisogno di presentazione per un pubblico attento e informato come il nostro. Più importante, almeno per noi, è invece sottolineare l'importanza di questa emittente, e del suo sterminato archivio, che è una storia vivente del nostro Paese, ma non solo. Anche di quella parte di mondo che cerchiamo di raccontarvi qui a Kiosk. Quella di Roberto Spagnoli, vice caporedattore di Radio Radicale e autore, fra gli altri, di un programma storico di questa emittente: Passaggio a Sud Est. Un programma di grande qualità, che vi invitiamo a seguire. Abbiamo dato voce a Spagnoli per sottolineare quanto sia importante il lavoro che hanno fatto e, soprattutto, che è giusto che continuino a fare ancora per molti, moltissimi anni.Siamo nel 1992, a Sarajevo. Rispondendo all'appello di una figura fra le più importanti nella storia del pacifismo italiano, il vescovo di Molfetta Tonino Bello, circa 500 persone, rischiando la propria vita, partirono dall'Italia per dare un segno di pace e di supporto agli assediati di Sarajevo. Fra loro, anche Alex Langer. È la marcia dei 500, un evento di importanza capitale nella storia e nella coscienza civile del nostro Paese. Ma non vogliamo parlarvi solo di questo. Il 29 maggio di 26 anni fa, aveva luogo la strage di Gornij Vakuf, una pagina di storia troppo spesso dimenticata. Nel 1993 cinque volontari italiani di Brescia e Cremona - Guido Puletti, Sergio Lana, Fabio Moreni, Agostino Zanotti e Christian Penocchio - partirono con un convoglio umanitario destinato alla popolazione della cittadina di Zavidovići, nella Bosnia centrale, con la quale erano in contatto fin dall'inizio del conflitto. Tre di loro perderanno la vita. Testimone diretto della marcia di Sarajevo, e superstite dell'eccidio, abbiamo intervistato una figura straordinaria della cooperazione italiana: Agostino Zanotti, fondatore e direttore dell'Ambasciata della Democrazia Locale Zavidovici.PLAYLIST• Wolf Biermann - Lied vom roten Stein der Weisen | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fLt_DFo_4bM• Stormy Six - Nuvole a Vinca | https://open.spotify.com/album/1QMZjrzHc9T2CVtatQ1Nnf• Biblili, canto tradizionale albanese | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OnnQXIk-Ic4• CSI - Cupe vampe | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hgnUCkU7cYE

L'ottimismo a volte illude, la speranza non delude, mai

I recently came across Vinca’s photography (No System) and was instantly connected to a time, and a scene, that I was almost part of. Our conversation cements the fact that Vinca is as genuine as her photographs, her experiences are real, and her photographs of not just the rave scene, but life itself, are as personal as any other photographer or artist I’ve ever seen. ‘We’re not free, the way society is set up now. So my way of feeling free is to make fun, to play. It’s like jesting. I think that’s been taken away from images of people, and images of women especially. I don’t often see images of women looking comfortable and happy, in a non-extreme way. I want my pictures to be edgy and interesting, but people don’t have that much fun any more. So joy, and fun. That’s what’s important.’ - Vinca PerersenVinca tells us about the beginnings of the Rave scene in the UK, the Criminal Justice Bill that put a stop to it, and travelling with sound systems in Europe, among many other things. The Martin Parr Foundation has acquired a copy of No System, including dummy book, originally published by Steidl, and she has been featured in Tate Modern, I-D, Hero and Aperture to name but a few. 2020 sees a large exhibition in Sunderland (which I’m pretty excited about) and a reissue of No System is imminent. We hope that you enjoy this conversation as much as we did.This weeks history of photography was non-existent, but we were going to look at, Christina Broom.Christina was a Scottish photographer, and credited as "the UK's first female press photographerChristina was appointed official photographer to the Household Division from 1904 to 1939 and had a darkroom in the Chelsea Barracks; she also took many photographs of local scenes, including those at the Palace, as well as The Boat Race and Suffragette marches.Collections of her photographs are held at the Museum of London, the National Portrait Gallery, the Imperial War Museum, London, the National Museum of Scotland, Edinburgh.......Full show notes - https://www.outerfocuspodcast.comSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/outerfocuspodcast)

Tre Pianoforti per l’Aquila nasce sulla scia emozionale de “Il jazz italiano per L’Aquila”. Seguendo quella scia di note, i pianisti Mirko Signorile, Giovanni Guidi e Claudio Filippini, hanno fortemente voluto unire le loro mani per creare il progetto Tre Pianoforti per l’Aquila che nello specifico, propone di realizzare uno spettacolo dal vivo, in cui i tre musicisti, compongono musiche originali e improvvisate: sei mani, tre pianoforti e un cuore all’unisono per donare alla città dell’Aquila un pianoforte.L’obiettivo di raccogliere fondi per l’acquisto di un pianoforte è stato raggiunto grazie al numeroso pubblico presente durante il tour dedicato, partito dalla città pugliese di Alberobello agli inizi di dicembre 2015 per poi proseguire verso festival e manifestazioni d’importanza nazionale quali Pianocity Milano, Umbria Jazz, Fano Jazz Festival, Naturalmente Pianoforte - e grazie a una grandiosa campagna di fundraising insieme a Associazione I-Jazz e MIDJ - Musicisti Italiani di Jazz che ha raccolto in pochi giorni l’intera cifra da destinare all’acquisto del pianoforte. L’entusiasmo per l’iniziativa e la voglia di sostenere il progetto da parte di moltissimi donatori, ha permesso di proporre una nuova raccolta fondi da destinare a progetti musicali legati al pianoforte e alla promozione musicale. Tre Pianoforti per l’Aquila inaugurerà “Il jazz italiano per L’Aquila” 2016, aprendo la tre giorni di musica dedicata alla città abruzzese dal 4 al 6 settembre in quell’unione di musica e intenti finalizzata alla rinascita culturale della città. Seguendo quella scia di note in fermento, i tre pianisti a breve realizzeranno un CD che raccoglierà musiche e suoni del tour e permetterà attraverso i proventi raccolti, di finanziare progetti dedicati al mondo musica.Il motto di Tre Pianoforti per l’Aquila è “Suoniamo perché non vinca il silenzio”.Li potete trovare su Facebook https://www.facebook.com/unpianoforteperlaquila, Twitter @pianoperlaquila, Instagram https://www.instagram.com/unpianoforteperlaquila/ mail unpianoforteperlaquila@gmail.com

Ciao amiche ed amici di Italiano Naturale, vi è già capitato di sentire questa espressione in qualche programma sportivo, in televisione, al cinema o tra amici ? Ascoltando questo podcast potrete capire meglio il suo significato!  

Przed cywilizacją sumeryjską i minojską w południowo-wschodniej Europie rozkwitała zapomniana kultura Vinča - z rozwiniętym rolnictwem, osadnictwem, a nawet własną formą pisma. Niektórzy archeolodzy sugerowali, mając na uwadze pewne zbieżności z Sumerami, że założyli ją przybysze z Mezopotamii. Tyle, że kultura "Starej Europy" - jak nazwała ją znana archeolog, Marija Gimbutas - była dużo starsza od tych, które uznaje się za "kolebkę cywilizacji". Co więcej, lud Vinča nie zniknął...

Tim Pine of the Environment Health and Safety office at UCB and Tyler Grinberg, UCB student and creek restoration coordinator, discuss efforts to restore Strawberry Creek on the UC property. The creek restoration is a volunteer effort.TranscriptSpeaker 1: [inaudible].Speaker 2: Welcome to spectrum the science [00:00:30] and technology show on k a l x Berkeley, a biweekly 30 minute program with a local events calendar, news and interviews featuring bay area scientists and technologists. My name is Brad Swift. Today's interview is with Tim Pine and Tyler Grinberg. They join us to talk about the efforts to restore strawberry creek at UC Berkeley. Tim Pine is a staff member of the environment health [00:01:00] and safety office at UC Berkeley. Tyler Grinberg is a UC Berkeley student and creek restoration coordinator and teacher of a Strawberry Creek decal class. The creek restoration is predominantly a volunteer effort by students, community members, staff and faculty. This interview is prerecorded and edited. First of all, Speaker 3: welcome to US spectrum. Thanks for coming and go ahead, introduce yourselves. [00:01:30] Thanks for it for having me here. My name is Tim Pine. I am a, uh, officially a staff member here at cow and uh, I'm in the office of Environment, health and safety. I like to tell people that we put the e and e, h n s and that's the environmental protection group of which I am one of five for the university. And within that, that group, I'm officially the surface water quality coordinator for the campus. So simplification to be, I'm the creek guy. Speaker 4: Uh, I'm Tyler Grinberg. [00:02:00] I'm a fourth year here at Cau, although I'm not quite graduating yet to next semester I'm studying environmental education and ecology. I'm also an education minor, so I'm getting my teaching credential at the same time as my bachelor's and first Aubrey Creek. I'm a restoration coordinator and a decal coordinator. So I kind of manage our, our class on the creek and restoration efforts. Great. And Tyler, can you explain Strawberry Creek to us? So for me, strawberry creeks [00:02:30] all around us on campus, if we're on Sproul plaza, it's in some pipes that are leading to the creek. Anything we do on the campus eventually leads the Strawberry Creek. So I think the creek is all around us. But where you see the creek is up in Strawberry Canyon, uh, if you go hiking up in the fire trail, you hear it running beneath you. If you're of the botanical garden, uh, you can see it and hear it as well.Speaker 4: And then on campus specifically, we see it in several locations, you know, by the dialect scientists building in some ecological study areas on campus. And then eventually [00:03:00] if you want to go be really adventurous off campus, you can go down to university and Bonar Street and see Starboard Creek Park and there's some fun things to observe down there. And then if you really want to be adventurous, you'll go all the way down towards the bay at the end of university avenue and you see come out of a very large pipe in somewhat of an estuary. And it's a pretty big watershed too, right? That feeds it all. Not just the campus but up in the hills and exactly. I mean that's why I like to say it's all around us because anything we do [00:03:30] along campus will eventually find its way to somewhere in strawberry creek. So I only can think of it just as the water you see flowing, but also all the interactions are happening around the creek as well Speaker 3: in terms of describing strawberry creek and the campus. You know, the very reason that UC Berkeley is here is because when the founding fathers of this university were looking around for a likely spot, having a water supply was a very, very important, but maybe the most important a requirement [00:04:00] for the location by the late sixties and early seventies. Water quality. It was just a bismal. I mean there was, you know, not just, um, you know, pollution coming off streets, things like that. But there were still operational discharges, there were still these legacy sewer pipes, it, and no one really knew where they went after they left the basement, you know, of dough library that were still actually, um, coming out into the creek. And it was about that time that some very critical pieces of legislation passed federally. And [00:04:30] then we're in in turn implemented at the state level. Speaker 3: And that was the clean water act. You know, it was very, very big deal in terms of forcing, um, not just Berkeley, but all urban areas to start looking at, you know, what have we done to these watercourses? They were, um, a series of pretty dramatic discharges to the creek where it started to get the notice of local agencies, you know, the regional water quality control board, which was, you know, relatively new at that time. At the same time. [00:05:00] That was about when we had that very vibrant, you know, kind of the first modern ecology movement. And, uh, the camps community said, look, we can't let this continue. So it was a combination of regulation and also citizens desire to start doing something about this creek, you know, which definitely in need of some work. Uh, you know, I like to give a lot of credit to a fellow by the name of Bob Charbonneau, who actually still works for the UC. He works in the office of the president and he, uh, came to cau as a Grad student in the late eighties. [00:05:30] He decided to make it part of his graduate studies to put together this management plan. So, uh, the Strawberry Creek Management Plan new, which was officially adopted in 1987 is still our guiding document for my department's management and restoration of the creek. And it's really a wonderful document. It's actually been, um, copied or used as a template for other watersheds across the United States and I suspect in other countries. That's been Speaker 4: a really fabulous document to keep looking [00:06:00] back at Speaker 5: [inaudible]. You're listening to spectrum on KALX Berkeley. We're talking with Tim pine and Tyler Greenberg, but the strawberry creek restoration. Speaker 4: What's entailed with your restoration plan, so to speak? Well, what I really do is focus on the area around the creek [00:06:30] or their parents zone and look to restore a natural biodiversity to the area that's been lost through urbanization and invasive plant introduction. And really my, my mission, my plan is education. And I know Tim hears this a lot, but I, I feel that we can do all we want with limited resources. We have to make alterations, but unless we inform future generations of how important the creek is and how we can manage it, it's just good to go back in Arizona. Revert to this, [00:07:00] uh, never the terrible state that it has been in for the past 50, 60, a hundred years. And so unless you really take this current students, make them interested in the creek, take faculty a different colleges and make them invested in the creek or not really gonna see any major differences. Speaker 4: Um, but what I'm doing actually hands on right now is taking students out, uh, to be creaking community members as well and physically removing invasive plants and introducing native ones to the nursery program we have on campus serious story about diversity [00:07:30] of plants, which will then introduce more wildlife to the area. And how do you characterize or measure where you are in that process? The goal is what and where do you think you are in that process? Uh, as far as water quality is concerned, I think that we're getting towards the end of where we want to be. From my point of view, there's still a few things I'm concerned about and that's a lot of discharges to the creek. Um, especially of political water [00:08:00] that has chlorine in it, which can imagine from an ecological standpoint kind of kills a lower trophic level of organisms that we're actually trying to preserve in the water. Speaker 4: So funny thing, clean water going into the creek is actually detrimental to the entire system. So even this morning working on the creek, I saw a lot of discharges heading into the water. And then as far as invasive plants is concerned, I feel like we're really making headway. But I'd really like to get a lot of different people on campus, on board with what we're doing. And I feel like we only [00:08:30] tapping to a very small segment of the campus community. And so if I had to put a percent on it, I'd say we're at 50, 60% of where I want to be. Um, I really want to take on a lot of the campus. And right now we're confined to three ecological study areas on the campus to do our work and the immense invasive plants are moving or you know, very small ground cover species as opposed to revamping the entire system. Speaker 4: And I know it's not really possible right now, but I feel if we get a lot of people on board we can really do more work than [00:09:00] simply remove ivy. And do you have a, an ongoing relationship with the landscaping group that tries to keep the campus tidy in a sense? You know, and and is responsible for a lot of the flora that's around it? Most definitely. Um, Jim Warner is the head landscape architect for that campus and we're constantly in meetings with him and talking to him about what we're doing, what he um, I mean sometimes we just agree on things but it's definitely an active communication going on between us and we've had very good feedback on what [00:09:30] we've been doing from him and he's been very helpful in our restoration efforts. Of course, there are some areas on campus that we aren't doing our work because they are landscaped. Speaker 4: We are on a UC campus, but we understand that. And so we're just working wherever he can. And he's been very helpful. And I would add that the a campus grounds maintenance group, um, which is part of, of our physical planet campus services there have been really essential and it just a fabulous partner for what we've been doing. You know, they manage the grounds manager, they're in close, who's [00:10:00] very active in the sustainability community here on campus. He, uh, managed to scrounge up our very first lot of tools way back 10 years ago to kind of get us started, provided us with a gloves hand of his own stock to give to the volunteers. They coordinated with us just about every single uh, event we have. They bring us on green waste bin so that all of the vegetation that we remove goes into a composting system. Speaker 4: So I, I would consider the grounds group here to be a very essential partner of ours. And [00:10:30] it's really been exciting to, and I think for them to, they've told me that they've been very excited to see the kind of the transformation that's occurred in some of these areas. What sort of data are you trying to gather, uh, from the creek and analyze this? That's a great question. Um, you know, I think as we're starting to do restoration, we're starting to go more into actually applying a science to these areas and really doing some research. Um, and before a restoration began, there wasn't that [00:11:00] much we can do in these areas. I mean, they're called ecological study areas for a reason and I think more and more people are using them now. So Stephanie Carlson, who's a fish biologist and he called us on campus, is now doing electro fishing in the creek itself to see what types of fish are out there. Speaker 4: And she's found, uh, at least three variety of fish and some crawdads. Um, she studying flows as well, the seasonal fluxes and extreme velocity and habitat complexity. So she's doing some work there. I'm doing more work on [00:11:30] the flora around the creek for a current project to see, uh, which varieties of trees are growing next to the water. That's just a, you know, in addition to kind of the normal metrics we take, we do take regular water quality samples for things like coliform bacteria. We actually have three web enabled hydro stations on the campus, on the creeks, the south, the north fork and the Speaker 3: main stem down there by Oxford. That measure consists, you know, constantly things like temperature, [00:12:00] um, flow turbidity and conductivity. That's been incredibly helpful in seeing when there's been, um, you know, illegal discharges to the creek as well as, uh, a valuable engineering tool to see how the creek behaves during storms. So yeah, there's actually a lot of data that's coming out now and I know as Tyler mentioned, that as we kind of improve access and safety in these areas where you need a lot more data coming back. A lot of students do their senior projects from the college of natural [00:12:30] resources and even integrated biology, um, using the creek as kind of the basis for their, their, their research project. It's been fabulous to see the data coming out of these. Quite a compendium where we're developing now. Speaker 5: [inaudible] you're listening to spectrum on KALX Berkeley [00:13:00] talking with Tim Klein and Tyler Greenberg, but the strawberry creek restoration [inaudible]. Speaker 4: So of the invasive species that you're dealing with, is there a broad [00:13:30] spectrum of plants and bugs and things? What would they be? Invasive plants usually don't find a broad spectrum, which is the problem. You have a monoculture, generally one species of plant, which doesn't function well in a natural ecosystem where you want a wide diversity and species written it richness of plants and so on campus. I feel our two biggest problems for groundcover species are Ivey of both English and Algerian of varieties as well as Vinca, which is Perry Winkle. [00:14:00] Um, but I feel like those are two main ground cover plants. And then up in the canyon there's a lot of blackberry, but those are the plants who are primarily concerned with. They're moving on campus and they're actually fairly easy to remove. And once we explained to our students why we want to move these plants in, we really give them the reasons behind why we do it. They're actually very, um, encouraged to get out of be with the plants. I've seen my students not during class actually out there with their friends. We're moving plants on their own. Do you get to have any input [00:14:30] at all into the planning of the campus related to creek side changes or you know, building that might be happening are pending? Yeah, they do. They consult. That's a, a very, a fairly recent thing where Speaker 3: my group does see a proposed projects at the early stages. If we do comment on the, not the, um, the conceptual plan, but also we get copies of the design plans as they're going through their stage to final design. And [00:15:00] those plans are reviewed by each member of my team for various impacts to water quality. A very good case in point, we'd be say a building, well there's a proposed replacement for Eshelman coming up and we've been in very, very early abroad in on the design part to deal with any runoff from the rooftop, from the landscaped area and this is going to be a project and when it finally is done, that's going to [00:15:30] capture an infiltrate as much storm water run off as possible. And depending on what time of year it could be as high as a hundred percent capture and re infiltration and groundwater. Speaker 3: Those considerations were never even anywhere on the radar as as little as 10 years ago. So that's just a perfect example of, you know how having the ability to comment on these days. Seeing projects early on has really helped out Morgan stadium to Morgan stadiums that really another really great example is [00:16:00] now I'm that water collecting in the stadium is going to go through a pretreatment system and an infiltration system to both trap pollutants and to try to put as much of that water back down on the groundwater table as possible. So it's been a really a neat thing to see. Those kinds of, some of those kinds of comments be incorporated into the design. Speaker 4: And you mentioned a nursery as well. It's part of the, the whole process. Describe the nursery activity that you're doing. Yeah, and I really feel it's our third partner restoration [00:16:30] after um, assessing water quality, removing invasive plants, we finally have to reintroduce native plants. We can't just leave these areas bear. And so through a grant with the Green Initiative Fund TJF where students get a few dollars every semester voluntarily into this pool. We got a grant to build a native play nursery on campus and took about a year to build. It was finally done. We had our grand opening last Wednesday, so we had a good ceremony there. But we have one of our nursery coordinators or a restoration coordinator who also does nursery your work. David Pawn, [00:17:00] he's a third year here at cal studying environmental science and he propagates native plants right in the nursery on campus. And then once we grow this plant, students can then do the final step of restoration where they put these plants into the ground and monitor the area. Speaker 4: Where is the nursery, the nurseries in the welding courtyards. So by Jean Nini and Wellman Hall and the college onto our resources. In terms of what volunteers can do, are there things, you know, if somebody wants to be involved [00:17:30] but doesn't want to go dig up Ivy, can they help? Uh, definitely. And we, we understand students have different levels of involvement, you know, of what they actually want to actually want to do. And I think everyone should be getting their hands dirty. That's just my opinion. But we have people work in our nursery. We don't really have our volunteers do other outreach work, although I guess it's something we can think about starting to do. Speaker 3: I, you know, that's a great question because, um, you know, one of the criticisms [00:18:00] that I've been very kind of cognizant of is that we could do more in terms of the outreach part of this thing. You know, given that resources are going to be so critical to our continued, you know, health and functioning as a group. You know, I'll admit that we, we tend to put more time on the ground as Tyler mentioned because I think that's our focus. But we would love it if people who have an interest in marketing and outreach people in publication though. Absolutely. We would welcome any skillset. I'm sure we can apply it to um, [00:18:30] the restoration program and were born very inserted in hearing any ideas that people have. Is there any point that you guys wanted to make? Speaker 4: Do either of you, one of the points I wanted to make, I'm not sure if I made it earlier, is that how important it is for us to take stewardship of our local environment. In my environmental science classes, I've actually learned a bit about how native Americans were stewards of their environments. That's really why California looks the way it does now. All these, what we call the native plants is because native Americans [00:19:00] tend to those plants and create a series of events that allowed those plants to be successful. And so when a student comes here as a freshman, I think that's just as important to learn about how to use telomeres as it is to learn about the native plants we have on campus. I know it sounds really corny, but after they work with us, they look at the creek a different way because when you work on the water, when you work in the right parents zone, something does change in you. You have a sense of ownership of the environment. That's what we need and so I think [00:19:30] as a campus we need to ensure at least after I'm gone and even while I'm here, that all students become stewards of Strawberry Creek and the local watershed. Thank you both for coming today and talking with us. Thank you very much. Speaker 3: Which was my pleasure. I could talk about the creek all day long. Speaker 1: [inaudible] [inaudible] Speaker 6: [00:20:00] to contact or volunteer for the Strawberry Creek Restoration. Visit their website, Strawberry creek.berkeley.edu as always, you can contact spectrum if you want this contact information. Speaker 1: [inaudible]Speaker 6: [00:20:30] a regular feature of spectrum is to mention a few of the science and technology events happening locally over the next few weeks. The June Science at Cau lecture will given at 11:00 AM Speaker 2: on June 18th in the genetics and plant biology building room 100 the June 18th talk will be given by Terry Johnson and is entitled synthetic biology [00:21:00] beating the cell at its own game. Bioengineering lecturer Terry Johnson received the Spring 2011 outstanding instructor award from the Bio Engineering Honor Society. He was also awarded the 2011 outstanding faculty of the Year award and named an eminent engineer by the Tau Beta Pi Engineering Honor Society. Join the center for Biological Diversity and the Ecology Center for a presentation on [00:21:30] the clean air act and how it may be our best hope against climate change. The title of the presentation is the clean air act and global warming, how it works, why we need it and what we can do to support it. This presentation is free. The presentation will be Wednesday, June 22nd 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM at the Ecology Center, which is at 25 30 San Pablo Avenue in Berkeley, Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute [00:22:00] or Ambari is holding an open house on Saturday, June 25th this event is free. Speaker 2: The Ambari open house features science and technology exhibits deep sea videos, research presentations, robotic submarines, children's activities, ocean career information, and much more Ambari staff scientists and engineers will share their excitement about the institutes work. Visitors can view a remotely operated vehicle [00:22:30] and some of their autonomous underwater vehicles and Baris research vessels will also be on view at the dock with related displays. Visitors can also find out about the Monterey Bay aquarium's Seafood Watch program and a new marine environmental organization. The center for Ocean Solutions. The Open House is Saturday, June 25th from noon until 5:00 PM the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute is located at [00:23:00] 7,700 sand Holt road, moss landing, California. Their website is ambari.org the link to the open house is found under news briefs. Now some stories in the news. The journal Science has given its May science prize for online resources and education or spore award to the periodic table of videos. Speaker 2: Science editorial fellow Melissa McCartney says the videos are an entertaining [00:23:30] mix of experiments and anecdotes and are aimed at anyone with a curiosity for chemistry. No prior knowledge on the part of the viewer as needed. The chemistry themed videos are produced by University of Nottingham Professor Martin Poliakoff, journalist Heron Chemist Pete licence, Steve Ladelle and Debbie ks and lab technician Neil Barnes. The periodic table of videos was conceived in 2008 after heron tape Poliakoff as part of another series [00:24:00] of videos called the test tube project. They decided to collaborate on the periodic table of elements and within about five weeks the videos for all 118 elements had been uploaded to youtube. The periodic table of videos continues to grow with videos about chemistry topics beyond the elements such as segments that play off the news. The site now hosts more than 300 videos. The videos can be viewed on youtube search for periodic table of videos. Speaker 2: [00:24:30] They may also be viewed@thewebsiteperiodicvideos.com which is helpful at schools where youtube is blocked. The American Association for the Advancement of Science website reports that an American research team has succeeded in high tech grand survey of ancient Egyptian settlements, tombs and pyramids by analyzing high resolution satellite imagery covering all of Egypt. Researchers have reportedly discovered up to 17 lost pyramids, nearly 3000 ancient [00:25:00] settlements and 1000 tunes. The effort was led by archeologists, Sarah Parcak of the University of Alabama Birmingham Parcak began her study 11 years ago searching for traces of ancient village walls buried under Egypt's fields and desert sands obtaining images from both NASA and quickbird satellites. She combined an analyze data from the visible imagery as well as from the infrared and thermal parts of the light spectrum. [00:25:30] Through trial and error, she discovered that the most informative images were taken during the relatively wet weeks of late winter. During this period, buried mud brick walls absorbed more moisture than usual producing a subtle chemical signature in the overlying soil that showed up in high resolution infrared satellite images to further test. Speaker 2: Some of the most recent satellite finds. Park enlisted the help of a French archeological team already digging at the 3000 year old site [00:26:00] known as Tannis Park Act says they found an almost 100% correlation between what we see on the imagery and what we see on the ground. In the wake of the fines, the Egyptian government reached an agreement to work with Park and others, American researchers to develop a nationwide satellite imagery project to monitor archaeological sites from space and protect them from looting and illegal house construction and other encroachments park says of the agreement. We are going to be teaching [00:26:30] young Egyptians how to look at the satellite data and analyze it so they can keep an eye on the sites. She and her colleagues plan to raise funds privately to support the effort. This item from the UC Berkeley News Center website written by Robert Sanders, a new initiative for citizen scientists and the crowdsourcing of ecosystem observation has been launched named the global amphibian blitz. Speaker 2: Any adventurer, hiker or backyard naturalist where the camera can help scientists survey [00:27:00] and hopefully save the world's amphibians. Thanks to a new social networking site that links citizen scientists with researchers tracking the decline of Amphibians around the globe. The global amphibian blitz is a new partnership between the University of California Berkeley's Amphibia web and six other amphibian groups. The new website is provided by I naturalist.org a bay area social network for naturalists. The website allows amateur naturalists from [00:27:30] around the world to submit their amphibian photographs along with dates and gps locations. The project is curated by a team of scientists who will identify and filter the submissions in search of rare species or out of range occurrences of interest to scientific and conservation communities in an effort to protect the data from commercial collectors and others who would exploit the information. The exact whereabouts are rare and endangered amphibians are obscured to all but the scientific community. [00:28:00] The website can be reached by going to eye naturalist.org/projects and click on the global amphibian blitz. That's I naturalist.org there is also a youtube video explaining the project to find it.

Tim Pine of the Environment Health and Safety office at UCB and Tyler Grinberg, UCB student and creek restoration coordinator, discuss efforts to restore Strawberry Creek on the UC property. The creek restoration is a volunteer effort.TranscriptSpeaker 1: [inaudible].Speaker 2: Welcome to spectrum the science [00:00:30] and technology show on k a l x Berkeley, a biweekly 30 minute program with a local events calendar, news and interviews featuring bay area scientists and technologists. My name is Brad Swift. Today's interview is with Tim Pine and Tyler Grinberg. They join us to talk about the efforts to restore strawberry creek at UC Berkeley. Tim Pine is a staff member of the environment health [00:01:00] and safety office at UC Berkeley. Tyler Grinberg is a UC Berkeley student and creek restoration coordinator and teacher of a Strawberry Creek decal class. The creek restoration is predominantly a volunteer effort by students, community members, staff and faculty. This interview is prerecorded and edited. First of all, Speaker 3: welcome to US spectrum. Thanks for coming and go ahead, introduce yourselves. [00:01:30] Thanks for it for having me here. My name is Tim Pine. I am a, uh, officially a staff member here at cow and uh, I'm in the office of Environment, health and safety. I like to tell people that we put the e and e, h n s and that's the environmental protection group of which I am one of five for the university. And within that, that group, I'm officially the surface water quality coordinator for the campus. So simplification to be, I'm the creek guy. Speaker 4: Uh, I'm Tyler Grinberg. [00:02:00] I'm a fourth year here at Cau, although I'm not quite graduating yet to next semester I'm studying environmental education and ecology. I'm also an education minor, so I'm getting my teaching credential at the same time as my bachelor's and first Aubrey Creek. I'm a restoration coordinator and a decal coordinator. So I kind of manage our, our class on the creek and restoration efforts. Great. And Tyler, can you explain Strawberry Creek to us? So for me, strawberry creeks [00:02:30] all around us on campus, if we're on Sproul plaza, it's in some pipes that are leading to the creek. Anything we do on the campus eventually leads the Strawberry Creek. So I think the creek is all around us. But where you see the creek is up in Strawberry Canyon, uh, if you go hiking up in the fire trail, you hear it running beneath you. If you're of the botanical garden, uh, you can see it and hear it as well.Speaker 4: And then on campus specifically, we see it in several locations, you know, by the dialect scientists building in some ecological study areas on campus. And then eventually [00:03:00] if you want to go be really adventurous off campus, you can go down to university and Bonar Street and see Starboard Creek Park and there's some fun things to observe down there. And then if you really want to be adventurous, you'll go all the way down towards the bay at the end of university avenue and you see come out of a very large pipe in somewhat of an estuary. And it's a pretty big watershed too, right? That feeds it all. Not just the campus but up in the hills and exactly. I mean that's why I like to say it's all around us because anything we do [00:03:30] along campus will eventually find its way to somewhere in strawberry creek. So I only can think of it just as the water you see flowing, but also all the interactions are happening around the creek as well Speaker 3: in terms of describing strawberry creek and the campus. You know, the very reason that UC Berkeley is here is because when the founding fathers of this university were looking around for a likely spot, having a water supply was a very, very important, but maybe the most important a requirement [00:04:00] for the location by the late sixties and early seventies. Water quality. It was just a bismal. I mean there was, you know, not just, um, you know, pollution coming off streets, things like that. But there were still operational discharges, there were still these legacy sewer pipes, it, and no one really knew where they went after they left the basement, you know, of dough library that were still actually, um, coming out into the creek. And it was about that time that some very critical pieces of legislation passed federally. And [00:04:30] then we're in in turn implemented at the state level. Speaker 3: And that was the clean water act. You know, it was very, very big deal in terms of forcing, um, not just Berkeley, but all urban areas to start looking at, you know, what have we done to these watercourses? They were, um, a series of pretty dramatic discharges to the creek where it started to get the notice of local agencies, you know, the regional water quality control board, which was, you know, relatively new at that time. At the same time. [00:05:00] That was about when we had that very vibrant, you know, kind of the first modern ecology movement. And, uh, the camps community said, look, we can't let this continue. So it was a combination of regulation and also citizens desire to start doing something about this creek, you know, which definitely in need of some work. Uh, you know, I like to give a lot of credit to a fellow by the name of Bob Charbonneau, who actually still works for the UC. He works in the office of the president and he, uh, came to cau as a Grad student in the late eighties. [00:05:30] He decided to make it part of his graduate studies to put together this management plan. So, uh, the Strawberry Creek Management Plan new, which was officially adopted in 1987 is still our guiding document for my department's management and restoration of the creek. And it's really a wonderful document. It's actually been, um, copied or used as a template for other watersheds across the United States and I suspect in other countries. That's been Speaker 4: a really fabulous document to keep looking [00:06:00] back at Speaker 5: [inaudible]. You're listening to spectrum on KALX Berkeley. We're talking with Tim pine and Tyler Greenberg, but the strawberry creek restoration. Speaker 4: What's entailed with your restoration plan, so to speak? Well, what I really do is focus on the area around the creek [00:06:30] or their parents zone and look to restore a natural biodiversity to the area that's been lost through urbanization and invasive plant introduction. And really my, my mission, my plan is education. And I know Tim hears this a lot, but I, I feel that we can do all we want with limited resources. We have to make alterations, but unless we inform future generations of how important the creek is and how we can manage it, it's just good to go back in Arizona. Revert to this, [00:07:00] uh, never the terrible state that it has been in for the past 50, 60, a hundred years. And so unless you really take this current students, make them interested in the creek, take faculty a different colleges and make them invested in the creek or not really gonna see any major differences. Speaker 4: Um, but what I'm doing actually hands on right now is taking students out, uh, to be creaking community members as well and physically removing invasive plants and introducing native ones to the nursery program we have on campus serious story about diversity [00:07:30] of plants, which will then introduce more wildlife to the area. And how do you characterize or measure where you are in that process? The goal is what and where do you think you are in that process? Uh, as far as water quality is concerned, I think that we're getting towards the end of where we want to be. From my point of view, there's still a few things I'm concerned about and that's a lot of discharges to the creek. Um, especially of political water [00:08:00] that has chlorine in it, which can imagine from an ecological standpoint kind of kills a lower trophic level of organisms that we're actually trying to preserve in the water. Speaker 4: So funny thing, clean water going into the creek is actually detrimental to the entire system. So even this morning working on the creek, I saw a lot of discharges heading into the water. And then as far as invasive plants is concerned, I feel like we're really making headway. But I'd really like to get a lot of different people on campus, on board with what we're doing. And I feel like we only [00:08:30] tapping to a very small segment of the campus community. And so if I had to put a percent on it, I'd say we're at 50, 60% of where I want to be. Um, I really want to take on a lot of the campus. And right now we're confined to three ecological study areas on the campus to do our work and the immense invasive plants are moving or you know, very small ground cover species as opposed to revamping the entire system. Speaker 4: And I know it's not really possible right now, but I feel if we get a lot of people on board we can really do more work than [00:09:00] simply remove ivy. And do you have a, an ongoing relationship with the landscaping group that tries to keep the campus tidy in a sense? You know, and and is responsible for a lot of the flora that's around it? Most definitely. Um, Jim Warner is the head landscape architect for that campus and we're constantly in meetings with him and talking to him about what we're doing, what he um, I mean sometimes we just agree on things but it's definitely an active communication going on between us and we've had very good feedback on what [00:09:30] we've been doing from him and he's been very helpful in our restoration efforts. Of course, there are some areas on campus that we aren't doing our work because they are landscaped. Speaker 4: We are on a UC campus, but we understand that. And so we're just working wherever he can. And he's been very helpful. And I would add that the a campus grounds maintenance group, um, which is part of, of our physical planet campus services there have been really essential and it just a fabulous partner for what we've been doing. You know, they manage the grounds manager, they're in close, who's [00:10:00] very active in the sustainability community here on campus. He, uh, managed to scrounge up our very first lot of tools way back 10 years ago to kind of get us started, provided us with a gloves hand of his own stock to give to the volunteers. They coordinated with us just about every single uh, event we have. They bring us on green waste bin so that all of the vegetation that we remove goes into a composting system. Speaker 4: So I, I would consider the grounds group here to be a very essential partner of ours. And [00:10:30] it's really been exciting to, and I think for them to, they've told me that they've been very excited to see the kind of the transformation that's occurred in some of these areas. What sort of data are you trying to gather, uh, from the creek and analyze this? That's a great question. Um, you know, I think as we're starting to do restoration, we're starting to go more into actually applying a science to these areas and really doing some research. Um, and before a restoration began, there wasn't that [00:11:00] much we can do in these areas. I mean, they're called ecological study areas for a reason and I think more and more people are using them now. So Stephanie Carlson, who's a fish biologist and he called us on campus, is now doing electro fishing in the creek itself to see what types of fish are out there. Speaker 4: And she's found, uh, at least three variety of fish and some crawdads. Um, she studying flows as well, the seasonal fluxes and extreme velocity and habitat complexity. So she's doing some work there. I'm doing more work on [00:11:30] the flora around the creek for a current project to see, uh, which varieties of trees are growing next to the water. That's just a, you know, in addition to kind of the normal metrics we take, we do take regular water quality samples for things like coliform bacteria. We actually have three web enabled hydro stations on the campus, on the creeks, the south, the north fork and the Speaker 3: main stem down there by Oxford. That measure consists, you know, constantly things like temperature, [00:12:00] um, flow turbidity and conductivity. That's been incredibly helpful in seeing when there's been, um, you know, illegal discharges to the creek as well as, uh, a valuable engineering tool to see how the creek behaves during storms. So yeah, there's actually a lot of data that's coming out now and I know as Tyler mentioned, that as we kind of improve access and safety in these areas where you need a lot more data coming back. A lot of students do their senior projects from the college of natural [00:12:30] resources and even integrated biology, um, using the creek as kind of the basis for their, their, their research project. It's been fabulous to see the data coming out of these. Quite a compendium where we're developing now. Speaker 5: [inaudible] you're listening to spectrum on KALX Berkeley [00:13:00] talking with Tim Klein and Tyler Greenberg, but the strawberry creek restoration [inaudible]. Speaker 4: So of the invasive species that you're dealing with, is there a broad [00:13:30] spectrum of plants and bugs and things? What would they be? Invasive plants usually don't find a broad spectrum, which is the problem. You have a monoculture, generally one species of plant, which doesn't function well in a natural ecosystem where you want a wide diversity and species written it richness of plants and so on campus. I feel our two biggest problems for groundcover species are Ivey of both English and Algerian of varieties as well as Vinca, which is Perry Winkle. [00:14:00] Um, but I feel like those are two main ground cover plants. And then up in the canyon there's a lot of blackberry, but those are the plants who are primarily concerned with. They're moving on campus and they're actually fairly easy to remove. And once we explained to our students why we want to move these plants in, we really give them the reasons behind why we do it. They're actually very, um, encouraged to get out of be with the plants. I've seen my students not during class actually out there with their friends. We're moving plants on their own. Do you get to have any input [00:14:30] at all into the planning of the campus related to creek side changes or you know, building that might be happening are pending? Yeah, they do. They consult. That's a, a very, a fairly recent thing where Speaker 3: my group does see a proposed projects at the early stages. If we do comment on the, not the, um, the conceptual plan, but also we get copies of the design plans as they're going through their stage to final design. And [00:15:00] those plans are reviewed by each member of my team for various impacts to water quality. A very good case in point, we'd be say a building, well there's a proposed replacement for Eshelman coming up and we've been in very, very early abroad in on the design part to deal with any runoff from the rooftop, from the landscaped area and this is going to be a project and when it finally is done, that's going to [00:15:30] capture an infiltrate as much storm water run off as possible. And depending on what time of year it could be as high as a hundred percent capture and re infiltration and groundwater. Speaker 3: Those considerations were never even anywhere on the radar as as little as 10 years ago. So that's just a perfect example of, you know how having the ability to comment on these days. Seeing projects early on has really helped out Morgan stadium to Morgan stadiums that really another really great example is [00:16:00] now I'm that water collecting in the stadium is going to go through a pretreatment system and an infiltration system to both trap pollutants and to try to put as much of that water back down on the groundwater table as possible. So it's been a really a neat thing to see. Those kinds of, some of those kinds of comments be incorporated into the design. Speaker 4: And you mentioned a nursery as well. It's part of the, the whole process. Describe the nursery activity that you're doing. Yeah, and I really feel it's our third partner restoration [00:16:30] after um, assessing water quality, removing invasive plants, we finally have to reintroduce native plants. We can't just leave these areas bear. And so through a grant with the Green Initiative Fund TJF where students get a few dollars every semester voluntarily into this pool. We got a grant to build a native play nursery on campus and took about a year to build. It was finally done. We had our grand opening last Wednesday, so we had a good ceremony there. But we have one of our nursery coordinators or a restoration coordinator who also does nursery your work. David Pawn, [00:17:00] he's a third year here at cal studying environmental science and he propagates native plants right in the nursery on campus. And then once we grow this plant, students can then do the final step of restoration where they put these plants into the ground and monitor the area. Speaker 4: Where is the nursery, the nurseries in the welding courtyards. So by Jean Nini and Wellman Hall and the college onto our resources. In terms of what volunteers can do, are there things, you know, if somebody wants to be involved [00:17:30] but doesn't want to go dig up Ivy, can they help? Uh, definitely. And we, we understand students have different levels of involvement, you know, of what they actually want to actually want to do. And I think everyone should be getting their hands dirty. That's just my opinion. But we have people work in our nursery. We don't really have our volunteers do other outreach work, although I guess it's something we can think about starting to do. Speaker 3: I, you know, that's a great question because, um, you know, one of the criticisms [00:18:00] that I've been very kind of cognizant of is that we could do more in terms of the outreach part of this thing. You know, given that resources are going to be so critical to our continued, you know, health and functioning as a group. You know, I'll admit that we, we tend to put more time on the ground as Tyler mentioned because I think that's our focus. But we would love it if people who have an interest in marketing and outreach people in publication though. Absolutely. We would welcome any skillset. I'm sure we can apply it to um, [00:18:30] the restoration program and were born very inserted in hearing any ideas that people have. Is there any point that you guys wanted to make? Speaker 4: Do either of you, one of the points I wanted to make, I'm not sure if I made it earlier, is that how important it is for us to take stewardship of our local environment. In my environmental science classes, I've actually learned a bit about how native Americans were stewards of their environments. That's really why California looks the way it does now. All these, what we call the native plants is because native Americans [00:19:00] tend to those plants and create a series of events that allowed those plants to be successful. And so when a student comes here as a freshman, I think that's just as important to learn about how to use telomeres as it is to learn about the native plants we have on campus. I know it sounds really corny, but after they work with us, they look at the creek a different way because when you work on the water, when you work in the right parents zone, something does change in you. You have a sense of ownership of the environment. That's what we need and so I think [00:19:30] as a campus we need to ensure at least after I'm gone and even while I'm here, that all students become stewards of Strawberry Creek and the local watershed. Thank you both for coming today and talking with us. Thank you very much. Speaker 3: Which was my pleasure. I could talk about the creek all day long. Speaker 1: [inaudible] [inaudible] Speaker 6: [00:20:00] to contact or volunteer for the Strawberry Creek Restoration. Visit their website, Strawberry creek.berkeley.edu as always, you can contact spectrum if you want this contact information. Speaker 1: [inaudible]Speaker 6: [00:20:30] a regular feature of spectrum is to mention a few of the science and technology events happening locally over the next few weeks. The June Science at Cau lecture will given at 11:00 AM Speaker 2: on June 18th in the genetics and plant biology building room 100 the June 18th talk will be given by Terry Johnson and is entitled synthetic biology [00:21:00] beating the cell at its own game. Bioengineering lecturer Terry Johnson received the Spring 2011 outstanding instructor award from the Bio Engineering Honor Society. He was also awarded the 2011 outstanding faculty of the Year award and named an eminent engineer by the Tau Beta Pi Engineering Honor Society. Join the center for Biological Diversity and the Ecology Center for a presentation on [00:21:30] the clean air act and how it may be our best hope against climate change. The title of the presentation is the clean air act and global warming, how it works, why we need it and what we can do to support it. This presentation is free. The presentation will be Wednesday, June 22nd 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM at the Ecology Center, which is at 25 30 San Pablo Avenue in Berkeley, Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute [00:22:00] or Ambari is holding an open house on Saturday, June 25th this event is free. Speaker 2: The Ambari open house features science and technology exhibits deep sea videos, research presentations, robotic submarines, children's activities, ocean career information, and much more Ambari staff scientists and engineers will share their excitement about the institutes work. Visitors can view a remotely operated vehicle [00:22:30] and some of their autonomous underwater vehicles and Baris research vessels will also be on view at the dock with related displays. Visitors can also find out about the Monterey Bay aquarium's Seafood Watch program and a new marine environmental organization. The center for Ocean Solutions. The Open House is Saturday, June 25th from noon until 5:00 PM the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute is located at [00:23:00] 7,700 sand Holt road, moss landing, California. Their website is ambari.org the link to the open house is found under news briefs. Now some stories in the news. The journal Science has given its May science prize for online resources and education or spore award to the periodic table of videos. Speaker 2: Science editorial fellow Melissa McCartney says the videos are an entertaining [00:23:30] mix of experiments and anecdotes and are aimed at anyone with a curiosity for chemistry. No prior knowledge on the part of the viewer as needed. The chemistry themed videos are produced by University of Nottingham Professor Martin Poliakoff, journalist Heron Chemist Pete licence, Steve Ladelle and Debbie ks and lab technician Neil Barnes. The periodic table of videos was conceived in 2008 after heron tape Poliakoff as part of another series [00:24:00] of videos called the test tube project. They decided to collaborate on the periodic table of elements and within about five weeks the videos for all 118 elements had been uploaded to youtube. The periodic table of videos continues to grow with videos about chemistry topics beyond the elements such as segments that play off the news. The site now hosts more than 300 videos. The videos can be viewed on youtube search for periodic table of videos. Speaker 2: [00:24:30] They may also be viewed@thewebsiteperiodicvideos.com which is helpful at schools where youtube is blocked. The American Association for the Advancement of Science website reports that an American research team has succeeded in high tech grand survey of ancient Egyptian settlements, tombs and pyramids by analyzing high resolution satellite imagery covering all of Egypt. Researchers have reportedly discovered up to 17 lost pyramids, nearly 3000 ancient [00:25:00] settlements and 1000 tunes. The effort was led by archeologists, Sarah Parcak of the University of Alabama Birmingham Parcak began her study 11 years ago searching for traces of ancient village walls buried under Egypt's fields and desert sands obtaining images from both NASA and quickbird satellites. She combined an analyze data from the visible imagery as well as from the infrared and thermal parts of the light spectrum. [00:25:30] Through trial and error, she discovered that the most informative images were taken during the relatively wet weeks of late winter. During this period, buried mud brick walls absorbed more moisture than usual producing a subtle chemical signature in the overlying soil that showed up in high resolution infrared satellite images to further test. Speaker 2: Some of the most recent satellite finds. Park enlisted the help of a French archeological team already digging at the 3000 year old site [00:26:00] known as Tannis Park Act says they found an almost 100% correlation between what we see on the imagery and what we see on the ground. In the wake of the fines, the Egyptian government reached an agreement to work with Park and others, American researchers to develop a nationwide satellite imagery project to monitor archaeological sites from space and protect them from looting and illegal house construction and other encroachments park says of the agreement. We are going to be teaching [00:26:30] young Egyptians how to look at the satellite data and analyze it so they can keep an eye on the sites. She and her colleagues plan to raise funds privately to support the effort. This item from the UC Berkeley News Center website written by Robert Sanders, a new initiative for citizen scientists and the crowdsourcing of ecosystem observation has been launched named the global amphibian blitz. Speaker 2: Any adventurer, hiker or backyard naturalist where the camera can help scientists survey [00:27:00] and hopefully save the world's amphibians. Thanks to a new social networking site that links citizen scientists with researchers tracking the decline of Amphibians around the globe. The global amphibian blitz is a new partnership between the University of California Berkeley's Amphibia web and six other amphibian groups. The new website is provided by I naturalist.org a bay area social network for naturalists. The website allows amateur naturalists from [00:27:30] around the world to submit their amphibian photographs along with dates and gps locations. The project is curated by a team of scientists who will identify and filter the submissions in search of rare species or out of range occurrences of interest to scientific and conservation communities in an effort to protect the data from commercial collectors and others who would exploit the information. The exact whereabouts are rare and endangered amphibians are obscured to all but the scientific community. [00:28:00] The website can be reached by going to eye naturalist.org/projects and click on the global amphibian blitz. That's I naturalist.org there is also a youtube video explaining the project to find it.
