Prairie High School in the Battle Ground School District is headed to a statewide tournament this weekend. But it's not for a traditional sport like soccer, baseball or football — it's for esports. Esports, like many other sports, have players compete as individuals or in a team in a video game against others. Prairie High School took home first prize in a statewide championship last fall in “Overwatch 2,” a team-based hero shooter game. On Sunday, one of the teams will head to Lynnwood to compete again for another statewide title.  Simeon Redberg is a science teacher at the school and the coach of the team. Cody Sigler is a senior and team captain who was recently awarded an esports scholarship to attend Winthrop University in the fall. They both join us to share more on the world of esports at the high school level.

In this episode of Genetics in Your World, GSA Early Career Scientist Multimedia Subcommittee member Allie Hutchings interviews Dr. Evan Dewey of Winthrop University about the functions of Blm helicase N-terminal IDR. Read Dr. Dewey's paper titled, “Functions of the Bloom syndrome helicase N-terminal intrinsically disordered region,” published in the March 2025 issue of GENETICS: https://doi.org/10.1093/genetics/iyaf005. Music: Loopster Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com). Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License, http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/ Podcast Notes:Bloom syndrome helicase (Blm) has important roles in maintaining genome stability. About half the protein is predicted to be intrinsically disordered (IDR), and its functions are poorly understood. The authors of this study identified regions that are locally conserved in closely related Drosophila species, then deleted these and assayed various functions. They find that each region is required for a subset of Blm functions. The authors' modeling suggests these regions adopt structure in complex with Top2alpha and the results provide novel insights into Blm IDR functions. Dr. Evan Dewey would like to acknowledge the following colleagues: Colleen C. Bereda, Dr. Jeff Sekelsky, Dr. Christopher A Johnston, Denise Soroka, Dr. Mitch McVey, Carolyn Turcotte, Dr. Nila Pazhayam, Mohamed A. Nasr, Priscila Santa Rosa, Susan McMahan, Dr. Robert J. Duronio, Dr. Gregory Matera, Dr. Dan McKay, and Dr. Richard Cripps.Thank you to the GSA Early Career Scientist Multimedia Subcommittee, in particular the production team who worked on this episode: Allie Hutchings, Interviewer; Sarah Shahba and Laetitia Chauve, Researchers.

What can Tolkien's epic fantasy trilogy, with its themes of alliances and rivalries between individuals from different races, teach us about society and politics in our own time? Let's find out.

Hi friends, I'm Scott and this is What a Weird Week, a lighthearted look at the odd/ interesting/ weird stories in the news. To subscribe to the podcast or for social media and more links, you can get everything at www.shownotes.page. These are the shownotes for Season 6, Ep 1 first published on Friday Jan 3 2025. Our "Worst Stories of 2024" episode! January... From Study Finds: "Magic mushrooms traced back to asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs" ... - icymi, magic mushrooms are called that because they look like tiny magicians wearing top hats... just kidding. Magic mushrooms are psychoactive and please consult ten physicians, 40 spiritual advisers and 9 lawyers before going any further on this journey. Especially foraging for them, because that can be extremely dangerous if you get it wrong!The article is about how researchers have learned that the dinosaurs didn't have magic mushrooms but around the time the dinos went extinct, magic mushrooms showed up on planet earth... 65 million years ago, the same time that an asteroid hit earth and started the beginning of the end for dinosaurs... which was new information for researchers. https://studyfinds.org/magic-mushrooms-asteroid/ February... From NBC 9 News...  Two high school kids in Colorado have received scholarships to play Division One Cornhole for Winthrop University... The athletes are very jacked about it quoted as saying "It's groundbreaking... It's making history!" ... Congratulations to Jaxson and Gavin. At some point professional Cornhole became a thing? and now also opportunities for young athletes to get an education on that Cornhole scholarship... btw Winthrop University is in South Carolina, United States of America. They are the first Division 1 school to offer Cornhole scholarships... Here's another quote... This is from Jaxson talking to media about receiving that Cornhole scholarship... "It's super awesome to make history." I can't argue with that. How fantastic is this? There's a whole new college sport being thrown into the mix... Well, it's not new but new to Division 1 schools... btw, if they don't have Cornhole where you are, it's that lawn game where you throw a beanbag and try to get that bean bag in a hole... The most basic way to describe it. It's a game that at one time I bet people who played horseshoes would make fun of... that part is just speculation.   https://www.9news.com/article/sports/local-sports/colorado-cornhole-scholarship/73-ba279aed-6721-4a17-8610-1f6c3fd583df March... The moon was back in the news this week. Russia has announced that they hope to team up with China and build a nuclear power plant on the moon. There's been a lot of moon action from different countries and different agencies... Many of them haven't gone well. Just recently one famously flipped over on its side... It's a little unnerving when you think they're going to be rocketing radioactive stuff to the lunar surface ... You don't want that nuclear power plant to be a failed mission... I just want to float this out here that before we dabble in what has potential to be catastrophic nuclear disaster... wouldn't it be nice, as a proof of concept, If we could put a donut shop on the moon first? Prove to me that you can remotely build a doughnut shop that nothing has gone wrong with, and then I'll be convinced/ I'll trust you with the nuclear thing. I'll trust you with nuclear reactors if first you give me donuts I guess is what I'm saying.https://www.forbes.com/sites/tylerroush/2024/03/05/russia-china-planning-for-joint-nuclear-power-plant-on-the-moon-by-2035/?sh=5ecdec160e1c and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_lunar_probes April...

This week, host Tim Boyum returns to the studio after a recent road trip, sitting down with the region's top pollsters to talk about the election as early voting begins and campaigns begin their final push.  Tom Jensen, from Public Policy Polling, and Dr. Scott Huffmon, from Winthrop University, are on hand with the latest trends in the presidential race, explaining why they're spending so much of their time in the Tar Heel state. Both pollsters believe this will be an election where it will take a few days to find out who America's next president will be because of either the thin margins, or the lawsuits because of the thin margins from either candidate. There's also a conversation about Mark Robinson's numbers following the recent controversy surrounding his campaign, though both agree the governor's race will end up being lopsided based on recent data. The two also crunch some numbers on some of North Carolina's top races.

Get ready for an extraordinary celestial event coming your way! On Monday, April 8, 2024, North America will be graced with a total solar eclipse, turning day into night across a wide swath of the United States. AND what makes this Total Eclipse so incredibly noteworthy, because the next isn't slated to happen for another 2 decades, 20 years. Whether you're in Southern California, Washington State, or the mountains of North Carolina, get set for a partial eclipse at the very least. For the ultimate experience, position yourself beneath the path of totality, stretching from Northern Mexico through Texas, up to Maine, and beyond into Canada. According to astronomer Tyler Nordgren, a total eclipse is nothing short of otherworldly. As the moon completely obscures the sun, expect the sky to darken, colors to shift, and the brightest stars to emerge. Nordgren recommends choosing a location you genuinely want to explore. Whether you're clouded out or not, being in a captivating setting enhances the experience. Just remember to pack your protective eyewear to safeguard your eyes during this awe-inspiring event. As April 8 approaches, consider your ideal spot to witness nature's breathtaking display. Whether you're drawn to the rugged landscapes of Texas, the serene beauty of Maine, or the majestic badlands of North Dakota, the path of totality offers an array of captivating destinations. Prepare for a day like no other—a day when the heavens align, and the universe unfolds its mysteries before your eyes. Mark your calendars, secure your viewing spot, and get ready to witness the total eclipse of 2024 in all its celestial glory. Don't miss out on this extraordinary event. Plan your eclipse adventure today and prepare to be spellbound by the wonders of the universe. Just don't forget your protective eyewear. Be prepared as the Total Solar Eclipse, meaning complete darkness, is speculated to only last 3:30 minutes.   TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE VIEWING TIME Texas - Partial Eclipse begins at 12:23 pm CDT. The Total Solar Eclipse begins at 1:40 pm CDT and ends at 1:44 pm CDT. Partial Eclipse ending by 3:02 pm CDT.   New York - Partial Eclipse begins at 02:04pm EDT.

In September, the super moon will be accompanied by a partial eclipse. While a supermoon is easy to spot from wherever you are, the eclipse will be visible from much of the Americas, Europe, and Africa. A confluence of three popular lunar events will make for an exciting night of stargazing on the night of Tuesday, Sept. 17, into the early hours of Wednesday, Sept. 18. A partial lunar eclipse will coincide with the first super moon of the year, causing part of the moon to temporarily go dark as it passes through Earth's shadow.    Super Moon — October 17 The second and closest supermoon of 2024 will occur in October. During a supermoon, the moon can appear up to 14% larger and 30% brighter than when it is the farthest. There's no need for specialized equipment to view the moon, but a clear night sky and an unobstructed view will help. NEWS ILLEGAL EAGLE FEATHER TRAFFICKING UNVEILED           FLATHEAD INDIAN RESERVATION, Mont. (KFYR) - Prosecutors say a Washington state man intends to plead guilty to helping kill some 3,600 birds, including eagles, and illegally selling their feathers. A judge issued an arrest warrant for a second suspect who failed to appear in court last month.  Such feathers are highly prized among many Native American tribes for use in sacred ceremonies and during pow-wows. The defendants are accused of selling eagle parts on a black market that has been a long-running problem for U.S. wildlife officials. Illegal shootings are a leading cause of golden eagle deaths, according to a recent government study. Immature golden eagle feathers are especially valued among tribes, and a tail set from one of the birds can sell for several hundred dollars, according to details disclosed during a separate trafficking case in South Dakota last year in which a Montana man was sentenced to three years in prison.     Prosecutors say Travis Branson and others killed the birds during a years-long “killing spree” on the Flathead Indian Reservation in Montana and elsewhere.   SPY CAMS IN VACATION RENTALS According to the Daily Mail, 10% of vacation rentals come equipped with concealed surveillance cameras. These cameras are frequently camouflaged as ordinary items like chargers, smoke alarms, and TV soundbars. Travel experts recommend inspecting for absent screws, additional openings, and reflections that may indicate camera lenses. Rental platforms such as Airbnb enforce stringent regulations prohibiting hidden camera use.   BOMB WASHES UP ON BEACH According to NBC, an old military bomb was recently found washed up on shore in California. A bomb squad was called in, confirming the explosive was inactive and then safely removed it from the beach.   MESSAGE IN A BOTTLE: SOUTH CAROLINA TO FRANCE Who has thrown a message in a bottle, tossed it to the sea or ocean wondering if it'll ever be found? A South Carolina fisherman dropped a bottle in the ocean three years ago. The bottle contained a letter and ribbons. The fisherman was shocked that it made its way to France. Have you ever found a message in a bottle? Host Rebecca Wanner aka BEC once did while fishing along the Knife River in North Dakota. The bottle was an old glass pop bottle, and the message was a typewriter typed letter and dated 20 years old.   CORNHOLE PLAYERS EARN COLLEGE SCHOLARSHIPS According to Deadspin, High schoolers are securing scholarships to play cornhole at the college level. Recently, two high school seniors signed letters of intent to join Winthrop University in North Carolina as cornhole players. These scholarships will cover half of their tuition costs. Both athletes are highly regarded, earning five-star ratings, and they represent the first students to commit to a college for cornhole.   As always here at The Bend Show, we encourage all ages to take up lifelong sports and activities. Cornhole is another great example, just as fishing, clay target shooting and archery, of an activity we can do all our lives and encourages us to do so while socializing with other people. Put down the phone and take up an activity this year!   FIELD REPORTS & COMMENTS Call or Text your questions, or comments to 305-900-BEND or 305-900-2363 Or email BendRadioShow@gmail.com FOLLOW Facebook/Instagram: @thebendshow https://www.facebook.com/thebendshow SUBSCRIBE to The Bend YouTube Channel.
