Gloria Gaynor
00:00 - Gloria Gaynor
00:16 - 1 - Biography of Gloria Gaynor:
There are many reasons why Gloria Gaynor is synonymous with "I Will Survive." The 1978 single topped Billboard's disco and pop charts, went platinum, and won Best Disco Recording the only year the Grammys recognized the subgenre. A belter if there ever was one, it set the standard by which all subsequent perseverance anthems have been measured. Its eternal appeal has been recognized by the Grammy Hall of Fame and the National Recording Registry. The inextricable links, however, obscure the depth and range of Gaynor's career. A soul singer through and through, Gaynor wasn't an overnight success. When she went supernova, her debut recording was 13 years old, and she had hits including a 1974 version of "Never Can Say Goodbye" that topped Billboard's first club chart and crossed into the Top Ten of the pop chart. Although she has recorded infrequently since the early '80s, her number one club hits span almost 30 years, through the early-2000s singles "Just Keeping Thinking About You" and "I Never Knew." She releases new material occasionally, including the 2019 gospel LP Testimony, and remains an active performer.
01:31 - 2 - Life:
Gloria Fowles grew up in a Newark, New Jersey household attuned to a wide range of music. During childhood, she had a desire to become a singer to herself, and eventually followed her father as a performer. In her mid-teens in 1965, she debuted as Gloria Gaynor with "She'll Be Sorry," a low-profile single produced and released by Johnny Nash (who had suggested the name change). Gaynor was a seasoned performer at nightclubs and other small venues by the time she was signed by Clive Davis to Columbia, the label that released her second single, 1973's "Honeybee," a sweet and sweeping proto-disco number arranged by Norman Harris and produced by Paul Leka. Following Columbia's dismissal of Davis, Gaynor was scooped up by MGM, which re-released "Honeybee" (as "Honey Bee") and steered it into Billboard's R&B chart in April 1974. Gaynor soon followed up with "Never Can Say Goodbye," popularized by the Jackson 5 for Motown. The driving cover gained traction in clubs. That October, it appeared at the top of Billboard's first Disco Action chart, and in a survey of New York City club DJs conducted by Tom Moulton, who noted in the accompanying column that the number one entry had been the hottest club record since mid-September. "Never Can Say Goodbye" entered the pop chart in November and peaked at number nine the following January, around the release of the like-titled album. Side one of Never Can Say Goodbye consisted of "Honey Bee," the title track, and a remake of another Motown hit, the Four Tops' "Reach Out, I'll Be There," mixed continuously for dancefloors by the inventive (and uncredited) Moulton. The suite almost topped Disco Action, and "Reach Out, I'll Be There" peaked on the pop chart at number 60.
03:20 - 3 - The first single:
Dust had yet to settle on Never Can Say Goodbye -- a number 25 hit on the Billboard 200, about to be nominated for a Grammy in the R&B field, and on its way to platinum status in the U.K. -- when MGM eagerly released Gaynor's second album. Experience Gloria Gaynor was cranked out during the third quarter of 1975. Like the breakthrough LP that preceded it by only eight months, Experience contained a nonstop side-one sequence courtesy of Moulton, and a ballad-heavy side two with some material written by Gaynor. This set reached number 64 on the Billboard 200 and number 32 on the R&B chart, while its first side crowned the disco chart. Still moving quickly, Gaynor made a lateral shift to Polydor. The singer had continued commercial success, primarily in the club sector, with I've Got You, Glorious, and Gloria Gaynor's Park Avenue Sound, released from 1976 through 1978. A cover of the Righteous Brothers' "Substitute," the first single from a second 1978 album, Love Tracks, didn't fare as well, but DJs found much to like in the B-side and album cut "I Will Survive." The theatrical dancefloor epic, written and produced by Dino Fekaris and Freddie Perren, truly took off once it was converted to an A-side. It debuted on the pop chart in December 1978, topped it early the following year, and was awarded a Grammy for Best Disco Recording. Love Tracks consequently became the biggest full-length of the singer's career -- number four pop and R&B, a platinum-certified million seller in the U.S., and an international smash to boot.
05:01 - 4 - Adaptation to electronic sound:
As the disco era continued to play out and fizzle in the early '80s, Gaynor released three additional Polydor albums: 1979's I Have a Right, 1980's Stories, and 1981's I Kinda Like Me. The second of these was her seventh and final LP to register on the Billboard 200, peaking at 178. Three LPs for as many labels followed throughout the rest of the decade. Gaynor best adapted to the increasingly electronic sound of dance music with her 1983 version of "I Am What I Am" (from La Cage aux Folles), a number three hit on the club chart. During this period, she also re-recorded "I Will Survive," revising the lyrics to reflect her born-again Christianity. Her studio sessions then became limited, typically balancing R&B and electronic dance music with elements of gospel. In 2000, she published I Will Survive: The Book, a memoir that revealed how much she has needed the message of her most popular recording throughout her life, and shortly thereafter topped the club chart two more times with "Just Keep Thinking About You" and "I Never Knew." The enduring cultural relevance of "I Will Survive" was recognized in 2012 when it was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame. Synchronized with a like-titled album, Gaynor's second book, We Will Survive, followed the next year. Its audio version was up for a Grammy in the Best Spoken World Album category. "I Will Survive" entered the Library of Congress' National Recording Registry three years later. Busy as a performer all along, Gaynor resumed studio work later in the decade, and in 2019 released the full-fledged gospel album Testimony.

New rare jellyfish species filmed
00:00 - New rare jellyfish species filmed
00:11 - 1 - New species of jellyfish:
Scuba diver Dorian Borcherds was mesmerized by the giant translucent mass of jellyfish bobbing beside him and decided to film this mysterious marine animal, ABC News reported. He spotted the jellyfish off the coast of Papua New Guinea that had marine biologists ecstatic after seeing the big blob of beauty.
The jellyfish could be the rare Chirodectes maculatus, first spotted in 1997 by a team of scientists on the Great Barrier Reef off the coast of Far North Queensland. On the other hand, some experts believe it could be a new species of jellyfish.
00:48 - 2 - Rare Jellyfish Could Be the C. maculatus:
Mr. Borcherds, the owner of a Kavieng-based scuba dive company, was diving with a customer last December when he spotted the strange blob and shared it on social media, describing its cool markings. He noted that it was bigger than a soccer ball. Still unsure what he spotted, he called on his daughter from South Africa for help and sent her the video.
His daughter uploaded the video to The Jellyfish App, a mobile application set up by Australian Marine Stringer Advisory Services jellyfish expert Dr. Lisa-ann Gershwin. Upon seeing the footage of the giant jellyfish, Gershwin was reportedly unable to contain her excitement and initially identified it as the mysterious jellyfish C. maculatus found 25 years ago on the Great Barrier Reef.
01:37 - 3 - Intrigued:
Dr. Gershwin said she was completely gobsmacked when she received the photos and was intrigued by the jellyfish. The C. maculatus was so rare that it has never been spotted again after its first sighting. A team of Australian scientists first described the species in 2007 from the preserved specimen caught in 1997.
Dr. Gershwin has even published a paper about the classification of the jellyfish species to officially move it to the genus Chirodectes, which was accepted by the scientific community.
Despite being ecstatic that it could be the rare C. maculatus, Dr. Gershwin studied it frame by frame to confirm what species the beautiful blob that Borcherds filmed. According to ABC News, she worked closely with researchers from the Queensland Museum in Brisbane where the specimen of C. maculatus was stored.
02:30 - 4 - conclusion:
Like the footage of the jellyfish found in Papua New Guinea, she also examined the specimen of the rare jellyfish frame by frame to compare the two. She concluded that the two jellyfish were different and that Mr. Borcherds might have discovered a new species.
She immediately called her colleague to confirm; he too believed it was a brand new species and was excited about the discovery. Dr. Gershwin is yet to submit her findings in a paper to be peer-reviewed, noting that it will not be technically discovered until the species is formally given a name and classified.
The marine biologist is meticulous in identifying the new jellyfish as she was involved in re-classifying the C. maculatus, adding pressure to be right in classifying the new species. Also, there is still the mystery of where could the jellyfish found 25 years ago in the Great Barrier Reef might have come from.

Richard berry
00:00 - Richard berry
Richard Berry, Jr. (April 11, 1935 – January 23, 1997) was an American singer, songwriter and musician, who performed with many Los Angeles doo-wop and close harmony groups in the 1950s, including The Flairs and The Robins.
He is best known as the composer and original performer of the rock standard "Louie Louie". The song became a hit for The Kingsmen and others, and it is one of the most recorded songs of all time; however, Berry received little financial benefit for writing it until the 1980s, having signed away his rights to the song in 1959. In the same year, he wrote and released "Have Love, Will Travel", which has been recorded by many other artists.
01:00 - 1 - Early life:
Berry was born in Extension, south of Monroe, Louisiana, and moved with his family to Los Angeles as a baby. As a child, he suffered a hip injury and had to walk on crutches until he was six. His first instrument was the ukulele, which he learned when attending a summer camp for crippled children.
Berry attended Jefferson High School in Los Angeles, and with many other pupils practiced singing vocal harmonies in the corridors.
01:29 - 2 - Musical career
He began singing and playing in local doo-wop groups, recording with a number of them including The Penguins, The Cadets and the Chimes, the Crowns, the Five Hearts, the Hunters, the Rams, the Whips, and the Dreamers, an otherwise all-female quartet from Fremont High. He then joined The Flairs (who also recorded as the Debonaires and the Flamingoes) in 1953.
01:55 - 3 - With the Flairs:
The Flairs' 1953 record "She Wants to Rock" on Modern Records featured Berry's bass vocals, and was an early production by Leiber and Stoller. A few months later, when the producers needed a bass voice for The Robins' "Riot In Cell Block #9" on Spark Records, they recruited Berry to provide the menacing lead vocal on the song – uncredited because he was contracted to Modern. The Robins later split. Three members remained with the Robins and two went to New York with Leiber & Stoller to form the Coasters. The Robins continued to record (with two new members) in California for other labels, including Whippet, Lavender, Arvee, and others.
Berry's voice was used at Modern, again uncredited, as the counterpoint to Etta James on her first record and big hit "The Wallflower (Dance with Me, Henry)" and several of its less successful follow-ups. Berry also recorded with several other groups on the Modern and Flair labels, including Arthur Lee Maye and the Crowns, and the Dreamers (who later became The Blossoms). By the end of 1954, Berry left the Flairs to form his own group, the Pharaohs, as well as continued to work with other groups as a singer and songwriter.
03:11 - 4 - "Louie Louie":
One of the groups Berry played with after leaving the Flairs was Rick Rillera and the Rhythm Rockers, a Latin and R&B group. In 1955, Berry was inspired to write "Louie Louie", a calypso-style song, based on the Rhythm Rockers' version of René Touzet's "El Loco Cha Cha", as well as influenced by Chuck Berry's "Havana Moon". Berry also stated he had Frank Sinatra's "One for My Baby" in mind when writing the lyrics. One night waiting backstage at the Harmony Club Ballroom, Berry took the rhythm of "El Loco Cha Cha" and began to add lyrics, writing them on toilet paper.
Richard Berry and the Pharaohs recorded and released the song as the B-side to his cover of "You Are My Sunshine" on Flip Records in 1957. It became a minor regional hit, selling 130,000 copies. It was re-released as an A-side, and when the group toured the Pacific Northwest, several local R&B bands began to adopt the song and established its popularity. "Louie Louie" finally became a major hit when The Kingsmen's raucous version – with little trace of its calypso-like origins other than in its lyrics – became a national and international hit in 1963.[6] Paul Revere & the Raiders also recorded the tune in the same studio the week after the Kingsmen, but their version was not a hit. The nearly unintelligible (and innocuous) lyrics were widely misinterpreted as obscene, and the song was banned by radio stations and even investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
The song has been recorded over 1,000 times. However, Berry received little financial reward for its success for many years, having sold the copyright for $750 in 1959 to pay for his wedding. Berry said in 1993 "Everybody sold their songs in those days. I never was bitter with the record companies. They provided a vehicle for five young black dudes to make a record."
Berry continued to write and record into the early 1960s, including "Have Love, Will Travel" (which later became a local hit for The Sonics), but with little commercial success, and also continued as a performer. Other songs included "Crazy Lover", recorded by the Rollins Band and "Oh! Oh! Get Out of the Car", covered by The Treniers.

Collect wind energy by Giant Kites
00:00 - Collect wind energy by Giant Kites
00:12 - 1 - Consistent speed:
At ground level, wind does not blow at a consistent speed, but at a height of 1 000 metres or more winds blow at a speed of 10-12 metres per second almost everywhere, all of the time.
‘In principle all electricity generation could come from high-altitude wind,’ said Professor Moritz Diehl, who leads the European Research Council-funded HIGHWIND project. ‘I believe that high-altitude wind power has good potential in Europe.’
00:41 - 2 - Wind farm:
At present, one of best options is to use kites – the strong winds pull the kites, which are attached to the ground by long, strong, high-resistance cables. Each kite has two lines which are fed in and out with winches and are attached to alternators to produce electricity.
Prof. Diehl and his team are developing computer simulations and mathematical models to determine which kite technologies would work best – soft wings, rigid wings, or fixed kite wings with wind turbines on them.
Further insight into the potential of kite technology is also coming from the engineering research and development organisation Sequoia Automation of Turin in Italy, which is testing a prototype kite generator under its KiteGen brand. This generator could produce the same amount of energy as a wind farm with four turbines.
The technology, which includes a more than 100 metres squared wing and a computerised control system, was developed specifically to help power ships as part of the EU-funded KitVes project, which finished in 2013. The researchers are now building on this knowledge to develop kites that can generate energy from a fixed point on land.
01:53 - 3 - Electricity of the kites reduce costs:
The control system uses sensors on the kite's wings which continually take measurements so that the computers can chart the best course through the sky to take advantage of prevailing winds. These sensors are so far off the ground that they needed their own small wind generators to be designed to power them.
The engineers at Sequoia Automation believe that they could have a commercial product ready in the next few years, and that kites could become an important source of cheap energy. The challenge will be to identify enough sites where the kites can fly without affecting aircraft, although there are already no-fly routes, such as over nuclear power stations.
‘We expect the electricity generation costs of the kites to reduce to EUR 10 per megawatt hour,’ said Marcello Corongiu, the coordinator of KITVES. ‘Even if they are only used for 600 hours a year they will still be cheaper than other renewable energy sources.’

The Clovers
00:00 - The Clovers
00:20 - 1 - The Clovers Biography:
The Clovers occupy an exalted place in the history of R&B, if not in the minds of many listeners, other than hard-core devotees of the music's history -- the Drifters tend to eclipse them, by virtue of their longer history and the string of hits that the later incarnation of that group had during the 1960s. The truth is that the Clovers not only started earlier than any other act on Atlantic, but they also scored more hits in their six years there than any other R&B act in the label's history.
00:50 - 2 - The origins of the group:
Like those of so many R&B vocal outfits, goes back to the members' middle teenage years. Tenor/baritone Harold "Hal" Lucas, tenor Billy Shelton, and bass Robert Woods were students at Armstrong High School in Washington, D.C., during the mid-'40s when they formed a trio led by Lucas, who also came up with the name the Clovers. A fourth member, John "Buddy" Bailey, another tenor, joined up and eventually became their lead singer, while Lucas started singing baritone. Their early sound was influenced by the likes of such professional outfits of the era as the Orioles and the Ravens.
The history of R&B isn't easily contained within the boundaries of the post-World War II era, when it began gathering popularity. The Clovers took shape over the next few years, as Woods departed to be replaced by Matthew McQuater, and Shelton was succeeded by Harold Winley, and a fifth member, in the guise of guitarist Bill Harris, joined in 1949. During these years, their repertory was largely drawn from the records and set lists of the Orioles and the Ravens, but as the 1950s dawned, the group had begun to embrace a harder, edgier brand of R&B, with less restraint in their embellishments. They were discovered while playing a club in Washington by Baltimore-based entrepreneur Lou Krefetz, who got them onto a small label called Rainbow Records, where they made their debut with "Yes Sir, That's My Baby." It was Ahmet Ertegun, the founder of the then new label, who interceded and, after getting the group onto his label, started feeding them rougher, more rhythm-oriented material, including the first song Ertegun ever wrote, "Don't You Know I Love You" -- according to Nick Tosches, that single was also the first record by an R&B quartet to incorporate a saxophone solo (by Frank Culley) into its structure; the record became a number one R&B hit during the summer of 1951 and heralded a new era in popular music, serving as the template for a decade of R&B hits. Indeed, there are those who identify that record as the very first identifiable rock & roll single.
02:59 - 3 -success:
The group was put in the hands of producer/songwriter Jesse Stone (aka Charles Calhoun), who, with Ertegun, directed them further into this new territory that they suddenly found themselves trailblazing. In April of 1952, "One Mint Julep" became a number two single, and they followed that up in July with "Ting-a-Ling," which also got to number two. The Clovers' fortunes continued until Bailey was drafted during the summer of 1952, and the group didn't see any significant success again until the summer of 1953 when "Good Lovin'" charted at number two with Charlie White, late of Billy Ward's group the Dominoes. They charted again at number three in the spring of 1954 with "Lovey Dovey," and then Billy Mitchell came in as lead singer for "Your Cash Ain't Nothin' but Trash." That single was only a relatively modest hit during the summer of 1954, but it was useful on a whole different level, getting the group a berth in the pioneering rock & roll/R&B short feature Rock 'n' Roll Revue. Beginning in 1955, with Bailey's discharge from the army, he and Mitchell served as joint lead singers in the group.
The Clovers switched to a ballad style in 1955 with the release of "Blue Velvet," which was a modest success at number 14 on the R&B listings. Their next single, "Devil or Angel," the latter an "over-the-transom" submission by an amateur songwriter named Blanche Carter, got to number three, but that marked the end of their run of hits on Atlantic. Ironically, it was those last two singles -- which were really the least representative of their sound of any of their hits -- became their best known singles, getting the widest airplay, though their version of "Devil or Angel" was later eclipsed by Bobby Vee's recording. Following its release, as the rock & roll boom solidified around white performers, guitar-based acts, and novelty tunes, the Clovers experienced a downturn in their fortunes. They ceased charting singles and after two more years of attempts at reviving their sales, Atlantic released the bluesy sleeper classic "Down in the Alley" (1957), one of the raunchiest songs of its period ever aimed at a mainstream audience, which even had the temerity to project its lustful observations slowly.
Rather than retreat, the act, with the encouragement of their manager, Lou Krefetz, grew bolder. He organized a new label, Poplar Records, and had the Clovers record an entire LP, an extraordinary opportunity for a group that wasn't riding high on the charts at the time -- even the Drifters had never recorded an actual LP at the time, their albums being compilations of previously recorded singles. The group scored with the LP and its accompanying single, "Pennies From Heaven," and it looked as though they might pull out of their ongoing commercial slump. Fate then took a hand as Krefetz was offered the opportunity to become the head of sales for United Artists Records, a newly organized label that had the money of one of the top studios in Hollywood behind them. The manager accepted the offer and was able to fold the Clovers, along with their recordings for Poplar, into the larger company. Krefetz next linked the group up with Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, the result being the biggest pop hit in the group's history, in the form of "Love Potion No. 9," sung by Billy Mitchell, and peaked at number 23 (which, oddly enough, was the same slot it occupied on the R&B charts).
06:27 - 4 - group broke up:
Alas, this was to be the group's last success. They never found another producer as effective as Leiber and Stoller, much less Ertegun or Stone, and even when they returned to work with Stone, they were unable to find a way back to the charts; even re-recording their old hits, such as "One Mint Julep," failed to attract any listeners. By 1961, the group had parted company with United Artists, and soon they were grasping at straws commercially, spiraling down in a series of contracts with ever smaller and weaker labels, losing Matthew McQuater in the process. The group splintered, with Billy Mitchell and Harold Lucas reorganizing the lineup with a pair of members from another group, the Bachelors, James "Toy" Walton and Robert Russell. They made a brief return to Atlantic in 1961 without any resulting rebound in sales, and after that, the group's situation became complicated by the existence of rival incarnations -- along with Mitchell's outfit was a group called (at times) "the Fabulous Clovers," led by Bailey. Roosevelt "Tippie" Hubbard succeeded Mitchell, leading a quartet called "Tippie and the Clovers," who cut sides for Leiber and Stoller's Tiger label, among them "Bossa Nova Baby," a number that was even an embarrassment to Elvis Presley when he did it.
By the dawn of the rock & roll revival at the turn of the 1960s into the 1970s, the Clovers' situation had become at least as complicated as that of the Drifters, with multiple groups claiming the name in various performing venues and recording situations. None of it really mattered by then, as the recordings had assumed a life of their own, separate from any performances by survivors or pretenders. The group was honored by the Rhythm-and-Blues Foundation in 1988 with a Pioneer Award, given to surviving members Bailey, McQuater, Lucas, and Winley, and thanks to the CD boom, their classic Atlantic sides have been more readily available since the 1990s than they've been at any time since the mid-'50s, Rhino Records keeping two different hits compilations in print while Collectables Records has reissued their two Atlantic LPs on a single CD.

Jessie Hill
00:00 - Jessie Hill
00:11 - 1 - Jessie Hill Biography:
Best remembered for the classic "Ooh Poo Pah Doo," New Orleans R&B legend Jessie Hill was born in the Crescent City's Ninth Ward district on December 9, 1932. Raised alongside the likes of Eddie Bo, Oliver Morgan, and Prince La La, it was almost inevitable that he would pursue a career in music, and by his teens he was playing drums in bands fronted by Kid Arnestine and Freddie Domino. In 1951 Hill formed his own group, the House Rockers, with guitarist Little Eddie Lang and siblings Melvin and David Lastie on trumpet and saxophone. The group played local country & western bars for about a year, touring the northern U.S. in support of a drag troupe led by Bobby Marchan before splitting. Upon returning to New Orleans, Hill played drums behind Professor Longhair. No recordings of their collaboration exist, but according to observers, he was the most sympathetic and complementary percussionist Longhair ever enjoyed. He then served with Huey "Piano" Smith & the Clowns before forming a new version of the House Rockers in 1958. In addition to David Lastie, this lineup included guitarist Alvin "Shine" Robinson, bassist Richard Payne, and a drummer, John Boudreaux, which enabled Hill to focus solely on frontman duties.
01:31 - 2 - First credit:
The origins of "Ooh Poo Pah Doo" reportedly lie with a local pianist known only as Big Four. A drunk who played the club Shy Guy's Place for booze and tips, he once performed the song with the House Rockers in attendance, and Hill scribbled the lyrics and melody on a paper sack, later fleshing it all out with an intro cribbed from Dave Bartholomew. Its dubious evolution notwithstanding, "Ooh Poo Pah Doo" remains one of the classics of New Orleans R&B. A nonsensical yet rollicking call-and-response workout that perfectly captures the energy of French Quarter life, it was honed to a fine edge on-stage before Hill cut a demo that he shopped to local labels, among them Joe Ruffino's Ric and Ron imprints. Ruffino passed, but recommended Hill pitch Joe Banashak's Minit, which agreed to book session time at Cosimo Matassa's Cosimo's Studio. The resulting date would prove the first production credit notched by the great Allen Toussaint, and upon its early 1960 release, "Ooh Poo Pah Doo" first emerged as a favorite at Mardi Gras. Eventually, the single broke nationally, selling 800,000 copies on its way to cracking the Billboard R&B Top Five and the pop Top 30. Hill took the House Rockers on a national tour that culminated with an appearance at New York City's legendary Apollo Theater, but his accounting practices so angered the other members of the band that it dissolved prior to a performance in Washington, D.C.
02:57 - 3 - Success:
After returning to New Orleans, Hill re-entered the studio to cut "Whip It on Me," which briefly entered the Billboard Hot 100 before disappearing from sight. The follow-up, "Scoop Scoobie Doobie," was a massive local hit but failed to catch on nationally. Subsequent Minit efforts including "I Got Mine" and "Oogsey Moo" made little impact, and after a last stab to recapture his initial success with "I Can't Get Enough of That Ooh Poo Pah Doo," Hill left the label in 1962. In an effort to reignite his career he moved to California. There he befriended fellow bayou expatriates Harold Battiste, Dave Dixon, and Mac Rebennack (the future Dr. John), who convinced him to temporarily sideline his performing career in favor of songwriting. In the years to follow everyone from Ike & Tina Turner to Sonny & Cher recorded Hill's songs, and he even wrote with Willie Nelson. In 1972, he signed to the Blue Thumb label to cut a solo LP, Naturally, an ambitious but deeply flawed effort that sold scant few copies. Despite his success on the West Coast, Hill nevertheless suffered financial difficulties exacerbated by his growing drinking problem. After a disagreement with Battiste he quit his staff songwriting gig, and while serving a stint in Los Angeles County Jail for an accumulation of traffic warrants, his car, which contained all of his songwriting material, was stolen.
Hill ultimately returned to New Orleans in 1977, but after coming home he found little in the way of either live dates or songwriting work, and for a time he drove his own taxi, a black Cadillac dubbed "The Poo Cab." As his drinking and narcotics use escalated, however, he racked up a series of DWI infractions, and in short order lost his license altogether. His occasional live appearances were typically train wrecks, hastily assembled affairs performed with pickup bands, and for a time Hill was homeless. Several benefit gigs were held in his honor, but did little to revive his personal or professional fortunes. Hill finally succumbed to heart and kidney failure on September 17, 1996, and his body was laid to rest under a plywood grave marker in New Orleans' Holt Cemetery.

Michael Jordan legend
00:00 - Michael Jordan legend
00:10 - 1 - Michael Jordan Biography:
Michael Jeffrey Jordan was born in Brooklyn, New York on February 17, 1963. He was the fourth of five children born to James and Deloris. James Jordan was a mechanic and Deloris Jordan was a bank teller. Soon after Michael's birth, James and Deloris felt that the streets of Brooklyn were unsafe to raise a family, so they moved the family to Wilmington, North Carolina.
As a youngster, Michael immediately became interested in sports. However, it was baseball not basketball that was his first love. He would play catch in the yard with his father, who loved baseball. He soon started to play basketball to try and follow in the footsteps of his older brother, Larry, whom he idolized growing up.
00:59 - 2 - Test for time:
At Laney High School, as a sophomore, he decided to try out for the varsity team but was cut because he was raw and undersized. The following summer, he grew four inches and practiced tirelessly. The hard work paid off as he averaged 25 points per game in his last two years and was selected to the McDonald's All-American Team as a senior.
Following high school, he earned a basketball scholarship from North Carolina University where he would play under legendary coach Dean Smith. In his first year, he was named ACC Freshman of the Year. He would help lead the Tarheels to the 1982 NCAA Championship, making the game-winning shot.
After winning the Naismith College Player of the Year award in 1984, Jordan decided to leave North Carolina to enter the NBA draft. Although he decided to leave college early, he would later return to the university in 1986 to complete his degree in geography.
In the 1984 NBA draft, he was selected with the third overall pick by the Chicago Bulls. As a rookie for the Bulls, he made an immediate impact, averaging an amazing 28.2 points a game, including six games where he scored 40+ points. He was selected to the NBA All-Star Game and named Rookie of the Year. This would just be the beginning of a career filled with awards and accolades. In the upcoming years, he would go on to win five regular season MVP awards, six NBA championships, six NBA finals MVP awards, three All-Star game MVP awards, and a defensive player of the year award.
02:39 - 3 - Tragedy:
In 1993, tragedy struck Jordan's seemingly perfect life. On July 23, 1993, his father, James, was murdered off Interstate 95 in North Carolina. Two locals had robbed him, shot him in the chest and threw his body in a swamp.
03:00 - 4 - Announcement of retirement:
Three months later on October 6, 1993, following a run of three consecutive NBA championships, Jordan announced his retirement from basketball citing that "he no longer had the desire to play." Now "retired" at age 33, it was uncertain what Jordan would do next. Would he take a year off out of the public eye to grieve and then come back to the Bulls? Would he go out and look for a white collar job in the field of geography, his college major? Or would he take up a completely different hobby like golf?
In early 1994, Jordan decided to take up a new hobby alright. However, it wasn't golf. It was baseball. Despite not playing baseball since high school some 13 years ago, he signed a minor league contract with the Chicago White Sox in 1994. He played one unspectacular season for the Double-A Birmingham Barons.
On March 18, 1995, Jordan, a man of few words since his retirement, sent two important words to media sources everywhere: "I'm Back". He celebrated his return to the NBA by doing what he always did best: winning. Although the Bulls would lose in the playoffs to the Orlando Magic, it was obvious that Jordan was still the same superstar player. He would go on to lead the Bulls to three more consecutive NBA championships and etch his place in the history as the "NBA's greatest player of all-time".
On January 13, 1999, Jordan re-announced his retirement, saying that "he was 99.9 percent sure that he would never play again". Soon after, Jordan became part owner of the Washington Wizards.
Near the start of the 2001-02 season, there were hints that Jordan may try another comeback to the NBA. On September 25, 2001, Jordan confirmed those rumors, announcing that he would once again return to the NBA as a member of the Wizards. His two seasons in Washington were mediocre at best. His statistics were solid and he showed some flashes of his old self but he could not lead the Wizards to the playoffs and missed several games due to injury. He retired for good following the 2002-03 season and was subsequently dismissed as president of the Washington Wizards.
In June 2006, he became part owner of the Charlotte Bobcats. Later that year, he filed for divorce from Juanita, his wife of 17 years. They have three children together.

wynona carr
00:00 - wynona carr
00:03 - 1 - Wynona Carr Biography:
Though largely unrecognized during her own lifetime, singer and composer Sister Wynona Carr was among the truly pioneering artists of gospel's golden era; while her music -- sophisticated and sensual, distinguished by lyrics of rare metaphorical depth and a progressive sound drawing heavily on jazz and blues -- was simply too radical for contemporary listeners, in hindsight she stands as one of the great innovators of her day. Born in Cleveland, OH, on August 23, 1924, Carr began learning piano at the age of eight; at 13, she entered the Cleveland Music College to study voice, harmony, and arranging, and a short time later began performing in Baptist churches across the region. In 1944, she relocated to Detroit to direct a local choir, and in the months to follow also formed her own group, the Carr Singers, to tour the Midwest and the South.
01:00 - 2 - First recording:
While touring with the Wilson Jubilee Singers, an offshoot of Cleveland's renowned Wings Over Jordan Choir, Carr caught the attention of the Pilgrim Travelers' J.W. Alexander, who was so impressed by her talents that he funded her first demo recording and sent it to Specialty Records founder Art Rupe. The label quickly snapped her up, and in early 1949 Carr traveled to Los Angeles to record her first session, backed by a jump combo helmed by ace session pianist Austin McCoy. Her debut 78, pairing the swinging "Each Day" with the torch-like ballad "Lord Jesus," served as an immediate indication of her versatility; produced in the vein of Sister Rosetta Tharpe's recordings of the era, Rupe sought to further emphasize the comparisons between the two vocalists by appending "Sister" to Carr's name, a ploy which reportedly made her bristle.
01:53 - 3 - Influence of jazz:
Carr's next studio date followed in Philadelphia later in 1949; a revolutionary session, it yielded "I'm a Pilgrim Traveler," a reworking of the blues standard "St. James Infirmary," as well as "I Heard the News (Jesus Is Coming Again)," which updated the 1948 Roy Brown and Wynonie Harris hit "Good Rockin' Tonight." Other material, like the Carr original "Our Father," suggested a strong jazz influence; however, while all of the tracks recorded during the session promised to push the singer into new stylistic directions, Rupe apparently felt the songs were all too daring, and none of them were released. Carr's next return to the studio, in 1950, was far more traditional, and included a new rendition of "Our Father," recorded as a duet with Brother Joe May; it too went unreleased, although the song was later covered as a May solo side as well as in a version by the Five Blind Boys of Mississippi.
Despite all of the frustration and setbacks, Carr forged on; she toured relentlessly, but did not go back into the studio until mid-1952. With "The Ball Game," a vividly metaphorical tale of a showdown between Jesus and Satan, she finally scored a major gospel hit, yet her career continued to flounder; another two years passed prior to her next Specialty session, recorded in Detroit (where she was serving as choir director at the New Bethel Baptist Church under Rev. C.L. Franklin). Although she recorded rarely, Carr nevertheless remained a highly prolific songwriter, composing poetic, topical material often inspired by headlines of the day; she cut dozens of demos for Specialty, and ironically enough earned more money from sales of her sheet music than from her actual recordings.
03:39 - 4 - Singing career:
After successfully touring white nightclubs in 1954 with Sister Rosetta Tharpe and Marie Knight, Carr finally broke her ties with gospel to pursue a career singing R&B; in 1957, she scored with the hit ballad "Should I Ever Love Again," but again fate was against her; at the same time the record was rising on the chart, she was stricken with tuberculosis, and spent the next two years on the sidelines, convalescing at her parents' home. A number of booking agencies sought Carr out, but she was simply too ill to perform; her career never recovered from the loss of momentum, and after leaving Specialty in 1959 she briefly signed to Reprise before spending the remainder of the 1960s performing on the Cleveland supper-club circuit. As the 1970s dawned, Carr went into seclusion; her health continued to decline, and she died on May 12, 1976.

Creatures in the volcanic vent
00:00 - Creatures in the volcanic vent
00:04 - 1 - most inhospitable life points:
Remarkable images of life from one of the most inhospitable spots in
the ocean have been captured by scientists.
Researchers have been surveying volcanic underwater vents - sometimes called black smokers - in the South West Indian Ridge in the Indian Ocean.
The UK team found an array of creatures living in the super-heated
00:28 - 2 - Cracks in the bottom:
waters, including yeti crabs, scaly-foot snails and sea cucumbers.
They believe some of the species may be new to science.
Hydrothermal vents were first discovered in 1977. These fissures in
the ocean floor spew out fiercely hot, mineral-rich water, yet somehow,
diverse ecosystems are able to thrive in these hostile conditions.
The team, from the University of Southampton, was particularly interested in the vents on the South West Indian Ridge because this range is linked to the Mid Atlantic Ridge and the Central Indian Ridge, where vent life has been well documented.
This area is also unusual because it is an "ultra-slow spreading" ridge,
02:15 - 3 - Species:
which means it is less volcanically active than other ridges, with fewer vents that are further apart.
Dr Jon Copley, chief scientist of the Indian Ocean vents project, said:
"This place is a real crossroads in terms of the vent species around the world."
Using a remote-operated, underwater robot called Kiel 6000, from the Leibniz Institute of Marine Sciences (IFM Geomar), in Germany, the team was able to train their cameras on the vents.
In the hottest habitat around the black smokers, they found snails and shrimp, as well as mussels, sea cucumbers and crabs. They then compared these with the animals found at vents on the neighbouring ridges.
Dr Copley said: "I was expecting there to be some similarities to what we know from the Atlantic, and some similarities to what we know from the Indian Ocean vents, and that was true, but we also found types of animals here which are not known from either of those neighbouring areas, and that was a big surprise.
02:59 - 4 - Vents:
"One was a type of yeti crab. There are two currently described species of yeti crab known from the Pacific, and it isn't like those, but it is the same type of animal, with long, hairy arms. "Also some sea cucumbers - not known from the Atlantic or Central Indian vents, but known from the Pacific."
He added: "We've got links to lots of different parts of the world here, which is very exciting."
The team was also surprised at the diversity of life they found during this expedition, which was funded by the Natural Environment Research Council (Nerc).
Dr Copley said: "In a lot of other vent fields I've been to, in this hot zone where you get the animals there is often just one type of animal living there: in the deep Mid Atlantic Ridge, it's the shrimp. But here, we have seen three to four all in the same zone."
The findings should help researchers to learn more about how life moves from vent to vent: vents are short lived, and without the ability to hop from one system to the next, life there would go extinct.
"That is why vents are a great place to understand how species disperse and evolve in the deep oceans, because they are like little islands," Dr Copley added.
Despite these findings, the researchers are worried about the future of this underwater terrain.
China has been granted an exploratory licence by the International Seabed Authority to explore the potential of mining the vents in this area for their rich minerals.
Dr Copley said: "This vent field is the size of a few football pitches, and it seems possible that it is the only known range of some of these species.
"It would be very premature to start disrupting it before we really know the true extent of what lives in it."

How pop killed his king
00:00 - How pop killed his king
Michael Jackson
00:06 - 1 - Death:
As with any world tragedy, most people remember where they were, what they were doing and who they were with on June 25, 2009 — the day Michael Jackson, the King of Pop, died.
University of California at Los Angeles hospital officials pronounced Jackson dead at 2:26 p.m. local time. Jackson had been rushed to the hospital when he went into what appeared to be cardiac arrest at his home in Holmby Hills.
00:33 - 2 - circumstances of death:
The immense grief the public felt after losing the beloved music icon was soon mixed with confusion, doubt and anger as the circumstances surrounding Jackson's death began to arouse suspicion: Just a couple months later, an LA coroner ruled his cause of death was "acute propofol intoxication"; the coroner deemed it a homicide.
Most of these misgivings were directed toward Jackson's personal doctor, cardiologist Conrad Murray, who ultimately served two years of a four-year sentence for negligence that contributed to his death, according to CNN.
When the case went to trial in 2011, Conrad was found guilty of involuntary manslaughter for delivering what proved to be a lethal dose of an anesthetic Jackson had requested as a sleep aid.
01:20 - 3 - Jackson's talent:
On the seventh anniversary of his death, it's an understatement to say fans continue to feel the impact of the loss and remember the indelible touch Jackson left on music.
Jackson entered the public eye in 1964 at age 6, when he joined what would become the Jackson 5 (but was at the time called the Jackson Brothers). In the '70s and '80s, Jackson saw unparalleled success in his solo career, securing his legacy with hits like "Thriller," "Billie Jean," "Black or White," "Dirty Diana" and "The Way You Make Me Feel."
These tracks showcased Jackson's talent as a singer, performer and tastemaker. Jackson popularized the moonwalk, among other dance moves, which spread through the dance world as well as the music world. And the "Thriller" line dance remains a DJ favorite for rousing guests to get on the dance floor at sweet 16s and weddings.
Jackson's artistry and influence, though, was most palpable in his quieter moments, with songs like 1988's "Man in the Mirror," a gospel-like track that echoes Gandhi's vast call to "be the change you wish to see in the world." Even much later in his career, his talent still resonated on tracks like 2004's "We Are the World," in which Jackson sang of his hopes for the world to "stand together as one."
In these moments, Jackson paved the way for a slew of artists who mimic him, are influenced by him or came to love music because of him. But in some ways, Jackson's death marked the end of something irrecoverable.
On June 26, 2009, the day after the singer's death, writer Hua Hsu summed up Jackson simply-but-eloquently in the Atlantic: "Jackson was one of the last figures of our time who could, in his very presence, describe the possibilities of pop."
03:06 - 4 - Jackson's memories:
"Jackson was one of the last figures of our time who could, in his very presence, describe the possibilities of pop."
Memories of Jackson, however, will always be tinged with a certain darkness.
Jackson was acquitted in 2005 on charges of child molestation and giving intoxicants to a minor. Among the allegations were claims that he had shared a bed with a preteen boy over 460 days during a two-year period, that he had pleaded with actress June Chandler to let him sleep with her son and that he had child pornography in his Neverland Ranch.
Speculation over whether Jackson had committed these offenses circulated anew this week when authorities released evidence that had been used in the trial: footage from a 2003 raid the Santa Barbara County District Attorney's Office and Sheriff's Department had conducted at the ranch.
The video reveals rooms filled with children's toys and games, photos of child actors like Macaulay Culkin and child pornography.
Shocked fans, who perhaps had wanted to leave the dubious parts of Jackson's history untouched, expressed their mixed feelings on social media, with some pointing to the futility of rehashing the controversy and others staunchly maintaining his innocence, including his family and the executors of his estate.
"Michael remains just as innocent of these smears in death as he was in life even though he isn't here to defend himself," a statement released by Jackson's estate Tuesday reads. "Enough is enough."
04:36 - 5 - Tribute:
It's likely the American public will always have to live in this space of discomfort, some perhaps acknowledging Jackson's guilt, others choosing to ignore his wrongdoings in favor of dogged idolatry and most accepting Jackson as a problematic but adored figure.
As Hsu wrote in his tribute to the late singer, the story we tell of the King of Pop continues to be one that says more about us than it does about Jackson himself.
His distance made him an enigma: he was post-racial before anyone knew it; he was a vain, tragic hero; he suffered for our adoration," wrote Hsu. "Or so we like to tell ourselves."

Dale Hawkins
00:00 - Dale Hawkins
00:04 - 1 - Short on recognition:
Dale Hawkins may be short on the recognition that blesses other 50s rock 'n'rollers but that's a blessing of a kind. He's still a legend with records that are sought after and, for the most part, well worth seeking out. Although Susie-Q is the song by which he is best remembered today there was more to Dale Hawkins - a whole lot more - and that's what this essential collection of first division Louisiana rockabilly is all about.
Delmar Allen Hawkins was born on August 22, 1936 in Goldmine, Louisiana, a tiny pin-prick on the atlas some thirty miles from Ferriday. His mother, Estelle, taught in the tiny farming community's only school while his father, Delmar Sr, played a variety of instruments in local hillbilly bands. There was one sibling, Jerry (sixteen months younger), whose three singles on Ebb have long intrigued rockabilly collectors though they made little impression at the time. Cousin Ronnie Hawkins (Dale's dad and Ronnie's dad were brothers) grew up to the North in Arkansas but he and Dale shared a common musical heritage and an uncommon talent for making some of the most infectious rock 'n' roll records of all.
Hawkins's parents separated when he was three and his father died in an accidental fire. Dale was shunted around a succession of share-cropping relatives in Mangham, just South of Shreveport, and Bossier City where he attended high school.
Black music embraced Hawkins from all sides. He stood outside the local black church where the congregation screamed and rolled in the aisles. He was exposed to country blues in the cotton fields where he toiled alongside black field hands after school. Battered instruments emerged during breaks and Hawkins joined in on a guitar he'd obtained by selling newspapers. The experience left an indelible imprint on all that was to come. At 16, he enlisted in the Navy where he remained for a year and a half. After the Navy he returned to Shreveport where he abandoned a college course for a career in music.
Records by Lonnie Johnson, Howlin' Wolf and Guitar Slim filled the jukeboxes and Hawkins, who took a job as a counter clerk in Stan Lewis's Shreveport record store, helped to sell them becoming an expert on the R&B hits of the day. At night, he sang the blues in clubs along the Bossier City strip across the Red River from Shreveport. This three-mile stretch was crammed with bars and honky-tonks like the Hi-Lo, The Sho-Bar, The Boom Boom Room, The Nite Owl, The Skyway and The It'll Do Club. Servicemen from nearby Barksdale Air Force base regarded the Strip as the focal point of entertainment. It was the hot spot for local bands and the stuff of greasy high school dreams.
02:47 - 2 - Hawkins' first bands:
Hawkins's early bands included young musicians whose experience already embraced work on The Louisiana Hayride. This live country music show, networked from Shreveport's radio KWKH since 1948, was now emerging as an unofficial nursery for aspiring rockabillies. James Burton, born in Minden, Louisiana in 1939, played lead guitar in a fluid, apparently effortless style which evolved from hearing the C&W stars he accompanied on the Hayride and blues guitarists, Gatemouth Brown and others, which Hawkins made him listen to. Burton was so young he needed a police permit each time he played in a club. Fred Carter, another Hayride guitarist, also figured in some of Hawkins's earliest Shreveport line-ups. He went on to play with Ronnie Hawkins and Conway Twitty, eventually settling in Nashville where he joined the A-team, the city's finest session cadre. The inner circle contained bass players like Frank Homer Kirkland who accomplished greater things with Bob Luman and Ricky Nelson, Tommy Mandina, an Italian-American pal of Stan Lewis's, and James 'Sonny' Trammell, an older man who ordinarily played steel on the Hayride and greatly influenced James Burton. Drummers included Anthony J Tuminello and Nick Roppolo who, like Burton, was too young to hold a social security number. There were times, Hawkins told Cub Koda, when the band would ride to gigs on bicycles.
In 1956 Hawkins paid Bob Sullivan, KWKH's engineer, $25 for some post-midnight studio time when the station went off the air for a couple of hours. Hawkins's friend, Bobby Charles, had got on Chess with See You Later Alligator and Hawkins hoped to follow suit with a demo tape of See You Soon Baboon. One story suggests that the demo was aired by KWKH deejay Charles 'Chuck' Dunaway (later and more famously on Milwaukee's WRIT) prompting an exceptional response from listeners.
Things happened in a flurry which becomes more uncertain with the re-telling but it all boiled down to a management deal with Stan Lewis who pitched the tape to Chess, the mighty Chicago blues label whose owner, Leonard Chess, was a frequent visitor to Stan The Man's Record Shop, the main Louisiana distributor of Chess Records. Hawkins's first single, released in June 1956 on the Checker subsidiary, coupled See You Soon Baboon and Four Letter Word, both products of the KWKH studio on which John 'Sonny' Jones's guitar licks are overwhelmed by an unknown saxophonist. The Jones brothers, Alton and John, played the same clubs and bars as Hawkins and Al co-wrote Swing Daddy Swing for Dale's brother, Jerry. Dale helped Al Jones get a deal with Poplar Records where Jones recorded the near-hit Mad Mad World; the song appeared as Wild Wild World on Dale's 'Oh! Suzy Q' album but Dale believes he was the first to cut it (Jones's record was reviewed in 'Billboard' on December 2, 1957).
05:51 - 3 - Black communities:
Dancers were Doin' The Susie-Q - steps which evolved from the Lindy Hop and virtually synonymous Jitterbug - at least as far back as the mid-30s when the song, written by J Fred Coots and Benny Davis, featured in The Cotton Club Revue of 1936. Harlem's Savoy Ballroom was at the forefront of these trends in black choreography but the dance probably came up from Southern jukejoints along with blacks who sought economic security in the North. Either way, its popularity crossed barriers which divided white middle-class suburbs from rural black communities. Lil Armstrong cut Doin' The Susie-Q but so did white bandleader Joe Haymes and blonde bombshell Ina Ray Hutton who shimmied in front of her all-femme orchestra in a transparent chiffon trouser-suit. Calypso artist, Raphael de Leon (aka 'The Lion') recorded Susi Qu in Trinidad in 1940. Billy Briggs's western swing band cut a song called Susie Q for the Time label out of Dalhart, Texas in 1950. Black blues variants had already formed a long queue: Lil Johnson's Grandpa Said 'Let's Susie-Q. Harlem Susie Kue by Victoria Spivey, Stop Truckin' And Susi-Q from Tampa Red and, on Bluebird in 1938, Susie-Q by Sonny Boy Williamson.

Whales sound the best sonar
00:00 - Whales sound the best sonar
00:04 - 1 - Search:
The echoes of fin whale songs can penetrate sediment and volcanic rock on the ocean floor, according to new research.
Why it matters: Fin whale songs could be used to map the Earth's crust when conventional — and in some cases, controversial — methods like firing seismic air guns from ships may not be available.
“It’s never going to replace air guns,” study co-author Va´clav Kuna of the Institute of Geophysics in Prague told the NYT.
00:34 - 2 - Low frequency:
Fin whales are loud — their low-frequency calls can generate more than 185 decibels underwater, on par with a large ship.
Researchers typically use the endangered whales' low-frequency vocalizations to study the distribution of the species (Balaenoptera physalus) in the oceans.
What they did: Kuna and John Nábelek of Oregon State University analyzed six whale songs, each with 212–593 calls that were 30–40 seconds apart.
The calls were picked up by a network of seismometers on the ocean floor that monitor for earthquakes off the coast of Oregon. (The researchers suggest machine learning algorithms could be used to locate and analyze calls.)
Part of the energy in the whales' calls is "transmitted in the ground as a seismic wave.
01:25 - 3 - Seismic wave:
The seismic wave travels through the oceanic crust, where it is reflected and refracted by layers within the crust," the researchers write today in the journal Science.
They were able to use those signals to map the thickness of sediment and rock on the ocean floor.
Yes, but: It has its limits — for example, the method worked best in relatively flat regions and the resolution of seismic images constructed from the whales' low-frequency signals was lower than the conventional air gun method.
The broader-frequency calls of sperm whales may produce higher-resolution imaging, the researchers suggest.
The big picture: "Our study demonstrates that animal vocalizations are useful not only for studying the animals themselves but also for investigating the environment that they inhabit," the researchers write.

Curiosities about the Coffee
00:00 - Curiosities about the Coffee
00:04 - 1 - Take a cup:
There are people who cannot start their day without having a cup of freshly brewed coffee.
They love coffee so much that they sometimes call themselves “coffee junkies”. And we understand that very well. However, drinking your daily cups of coffee is not necessarily a bad habit. On the contrary, it proved to be healthy, scientists say. Your daily breakfast provides more than just an energy boost. It is also shown to protect us against type 2 diabetes and liver disease, as well as reducing the risks of heart failure.
In addition to the effect on our health, here are some of the most interesting facts about coffee.
00:45 - 2 - Coffee is culture:
Going back in time, we saw that coffee is not just a drink. It is a means of social interaction, and has been for a long time. In the old days, people gathered to have a coffee and exchange information. In North America and many Western European countries, Starbucks and other large chains have dominated the market because they are offering customers a complete coffee experience. Coffee and friends, coffee and work, coffee and snacks, coffee to go! There is the mix
Irish whiskey called “Irish Coffee”. In Italy, the invention of espresso coffee and the espresso machine made it the favorite drink of Italians all day long. In Greece, there is “kafenio”, an old-fashioned cafe for old men, where they drink Greek coffee and exchange political ideas or play cards and a board game called “tavli”.
This makes us very curious to know more interesting facts about coffee as a commodity, as a beverage and as part of everyday culture. It already produces coffee before it was even a state. (Recently, though, farms in California have started growing coffee bushes!)
Coffee was discovered by a goat herder
Coffee is said to have been discovered by a goat herder in Ethiopia in the 1500s. He saw his goats eating coffee cherries. Then he noticed a change in her behavior; they won a big
amount of energy and did not sleep at night. The pastor shared his findings with local monks.
After they made their own drink out of coffee beans, they realized they could stay up all night and pray. The news spread to other Ethiopian monks and soon after reached
the entire civilized world.
02:31 - 3 - Curiosities:
Coffee banned in Mecca Coffee was banned in Mecca in 1511, shortly after its first appearance in Ethiopia.
It was believed to encourage radical thinking and idleness.
Add cream, keep your coffee hot
Coffee stays 20% hotter when you add cream.
Coffee is a fruit
Coffee beans grow on a bush. They are actually the core of a berry, which makes them a fruit.
Coffee is a fruit, the most interesting fact about coffee.
The most expensive coffee is made from cat poop “Kopi Luwak” is the most expensive coffee in the world. It comes from Indonesia and is made from digested grains from
Asian civet. In other words, it comes from cat poop. For sale for €350 or more per kilo!
03:22 - 4 - interesting:
So many interesting facts about coffee and its rich history. The love for all things coffee related has brought companies large and small into the world of coffee production and marketing, making it a very modern product as well. Technology and improvements in the coffee trading industry are two of the main factors that help many of these companies compete in the volatile environment of the coffee trade.
Coffee culture is constantly changing as coffee drinkers look for new ways to enjoy it.
of your favorite drink. Production, marketing and distribution methods have evolved to meet these new needs, but there are still many more improvements to be made. Therefore, more coffee research and development will need to be an ongoing activity.

Sakurajima volcano in Japan erupts
00:00 - Sakurajima volcano in Japan erupts
00:05 - 1 - TOKYO
Japan's weather agency maintained the highest alert level Monday after an explosive eruption the previous day at Sakurajima in Kagoshima Prefecture, southwestern Japan, although there were no reports of injuries.
The Japan Meteorological Agency said late Sunday that it was not currently expecting a large eruption similar to one at the same volcano in 1914 that caused many deaths.
The agency called on residents to be on high alert after a large rock flew around 2.5 kilometers from a crater, while warning pyroclastic flows could occur within a 2-km radius of two craters.
Evacuation orders were issued for 51 people in 33 households within a 3-km radius of the Minamidake and Showa craters, with 30 residents from 20 households sheltering at an evacuation center as of 10 a.m. Monday.
Following the previous day's explosive eruption at around 8:05 p.m., the agency raised the alert for the volcano from level 3 to 5 on its 5-point scale, warning people to evacuate. It was the first time that a level 5 alert was issued for the volcano.
01:14 - 2 - Highest alert:
It is just the second time the highest alert level has been applied to a volcano in Japan following a 2015 eruption on Kuchinoerabu Island in Kagoshima Prefecture.
The agency has observed minor crustal movements indicating expansion of the volcano since July 18, it said Sunday. There were four eruptions at the Minamidake crater from Saturday to Sunday afternoon, with plumes rising up to 1,200 meters.
01:43 - 3 - The rocks:
During Sunday's explosive eruption, rocks were believed to have flown mainly in an east and southeast direction from the Minamidake crater.
A smaller eruption also occurred at about 6:30 a.m. Monday, with plumes rising 2,200 meters, the agency said.
While Japan's schools are currently on summer vacation, kindergartens, daycares and after-school children's clubs in the area have been canceled. Club activities provided at elementary and junior high schools are also suspended, with teachers being urged not to go to work.
The prefectural government and police are monitoring the situation from the air via helicopters.
Tense residents expressed fear late Sunday, with many surprised by the scale of the eruption. Mami Aoyama, who works at a hotel on Sakurajima, said she rushed to catch a ferry back to her home in an urban area of the prefectural capital of Kagoshima.
"The manager told me to 'just go home' so I quickly got on a boat home. I have no idea what happens tomorrow or after that," she said, calling it a "terrifying new experience."
One 76-year-old resident outside the evacuation zone said Monday she started packing clothes in a panic after learning of the eruption on TV. Normally she would hear the ground rumble, she said, but this time she "couldn't hear anything."
Yudai Yonekura, 35, spent a night at an evacuation center with relatives after seeing the windows at work shake from the eruption on Sunday night. "If we are forced to keep staying here, we'll need to think about getting a hotel," Yonekura said.
Sakurajima is one of the most active volcanoes in Japan. The large eruption in 1914 emitted enough lava to close the strait between the Sakurajima volcanic island in Kagoshima Bay and the Osumi Peninsula on Kyushu, the country's southwestern main island.

HUELYN DUVALL
00:00 - HUELYN DUVALL
00:02 - 1 - First guitar:
When Huelyn Duvall was born to Bill and Ila Duvall in 1939, he was welcomed with a sister Doris (7 years old) and a brother Bob (3 years old). Then to be followed four years later by another sister Ruthie, two years after Ruthie, Carolyn was born. His Father was a school teacher, his mother was a housewife. He got his first guitar when he was 14, most of the influences were the local radio which was country music. Huelyn"s Father was the superintendent of the school in Huckabay, where he graduated in 1957. The school only had about 300 students total. It was in nearby Stephenville (population was about 10,000, known for Dairy Cattle Milk Production), that Huelyn got involved with recording.
00:52 - 2 - Start:
In 1955-56 he started hearing alot of rock and roll artists such as Carl Perkins, Elvis Presley, Buddy Knox, Buddy Holly and several others. In 1956 while still in high school Huelyn met Lonnie Thompson (a lead guitarist) he was in college. They both liked the new music and started playing together. At a local radio station they would record enough songs on the weekend to have one played each day the following week. Next weekend start the process all over again. One day the owner of a dairy that Lonnie worked at (milking cows) said that we would sound better if we had a slap bass. Lonnie found Ralph Clark at another college close by and we began to work together.
Lonnie had a Les Paul custom guitar and Ralph Clark a blonde bull bass. Huelyn's dad bought him a Gibson J50 guitar (after his Harmony guitar had "Got Squashed under one of the new styled power seats"). James Mathison a drummer joined the group shortly after and Johnny Thompson (Lonnie's twin brother) played rhythm guitar and backup vocals with Lonnie. Between February and September 1957 the group did approximately 50 local shows from high schools to colleges to radio stations to theaters to sock hops to everything in between. They became regulars at the Majestic Theater in Ft. Worth at the Cowtown Hoedown and at the Big D Jamboree in Dallas. They weren't allowed to play rock and roll at the Cowtown Hoedown until one night with a packed house, Huelyn told the band that they were going to rock the house and see what happened. Several encores later, rock and roll was there to stay. The Group had even taken a country name (Huelyn Duvall and the Troublesome Three) to please management.
02:38 - 3 - Material for a recording session:
In the summer of 1957 Lonnie introduced Huelyn to Danny Wolfe who was a musician, singer and songwriter. They quickly started to put material together for a recording session as Danny had got Huelyn a contract with Challenge records, a Gene Autry company that had just gotten started. The first recording session was at the Owen Bradley Studio in Nashville on September 27, 1957, they recorded "Teen Queen", "Comin' Or Goin'", "Boom Boom Baby" and Pucker Paint. Grady Martin played lead guitar, Floyd Cramer on Piano, "Buddy" Harmon on drums and The Jordanaires. Huelyn was very disappointed that his band was not going to be used on the session. They had played so much together and all of them had become very good friends, but Huelyn had no control over that. They wanted to use studio musicians. (The Troublesome Three never played professionally again though they remain good friends to this day.) January 27, 1958 Huelyn did his second session for Challenge at Goldstar Studios in Hollywood. He recorded "Fools Hall Of Fame", "Friday Night On A Dollar Bill", "Hum-m-m-dinger" and "You Knock Me Out". This is where he met Dave Burgess. Huelyn did dates in Los Angeles and San Diego at the same time in Auditoriums.He also had a session set to cut a couple of instrumentals with some local musicians from the area. They had no lead guitar player and he was asked to sit in on the session. However, he declined because he couldn't play lead guitar. The main cut was called "Train To Nowhere" and needing a B side they hurriedly put together a cut called "Tequila". Huelyn provided some oooh's and aah's on "Train To Nowhere" and yelled Tequila! at the end of the instrumental. As Huelyn said "It turned out to be the closest I ever got to a hit record".
04:32 - 4 - building your own studio:
Danny Wolfe built his own recording studio in 1958. They recorded the two remaining records on Starfire "ACROSS THE AISLE" and "ITS NO WONDER". Also on Twinkle records "BEAUTIFUL DREAMER and "TEAR STAINED LETTERS". The studio musicians included a local songwriter and guitar player named Jimmy Green and Tooter Boatman's group The Chapperals. Danny wrote a lot of songs and Huelyn recorded most of them at one time or another. Huelyn kept thinking that Joe Johnson at Challenge and Danny Wolfe were going to set him up some tours and shows as they had promised. They were both managers at 10 percent each per contract. They kept saying that the next release would be a hit. In 1959 he went to Tarleton State College in Stephenville where Lonnie also went to school. At that time without a hit record and no management support, there was no way of make a living in music and supporting a band. Between 1959 and 1960 Huelyn played Friday and Saturday nights at a place called ANDY'S in Strawn about 25 miles from Stephenville. They were called Huelyn Duvall and THE ARROWS. The posters on the wall read "DANCE To The Sharp Music Of The ARROWS". Tooter Boatman's Group played there during the week and on Sunday. Things were looking up personally. Huelyn met Sandy at her job in Ft worth, the same placed his brother worked. "I went to see him one day and fell in love with a beautiful young secretary." Huelyn remembers. He found out later that she had been at one of his concerts at her high school and she knew of him.

Heat wave around the world
00:00 - Heat wave around the world
00:04 - 1 - Extraordinary heat:
Millions of Americans are once again in the grips of dangerous heat. Hot air blanketed Europe last weekend, causing parts of France and Spain to feel the way it usually does in July or August. High temperatures scorched northern and central China even as heavy rains caused flooding in the country’s south. Some places in India began experiencing extraordinary heat in March, though the start of the monsoon rains has brought some relief.
It’s too soon to say whether climate change is directly to blame for causing severe heat waves in these four powerhouse economies — which also happen to be the top emitters of heat-trapping gases — at roughly the same time, just days into summer.
While global warming is making extreme heat more common worldwide, deeper analysis is required to tell scientists whether specific weather events were made more likely or more intense because of human-induced warming. (A team of researchers who studied this spring’s devastating heat in India found that climate change had made it 30 times as likely to occur.)
01:08 - 2 - related reasons:
Even so, concurrent heat waves seem to be hitting certain groups of far-flung places with growing frequency of late, for reasons related to the jet stream and other rivers of air that influence weather systems worldwide.
Studies have shown that parts of North America, Europe and Asia are linked this way. Scientists are still trying to determine how these patterns might change as the planet warms further, but for now it means simultaneous heat extremes will probably continue affecting these places where so much of the world’s economic activity is concentrated.
“To have a heat wave, we need the heat, and we need the atmospheric circulation pattern that allows the heat to accumulate,” said Daniel E. Horton, a climate scientist at Northwestern University. With global warming, he said, “we’re definitely getting more heat.” But climate change may also be affecting the way this heat is distributed around the world by globe-circling air currents, he said.

Charlie Gracie
00:00 - Charlie Gracie
00:02 - 1 - Biography of Charlie Gracie:
With his emphatic, hiccuping vocal style, strong and elemental guitar work, and engaging personality, Charlie Gracie was one of the first truly international rock & roll stars, rising to fame in the United States as well as Great Britain. Embracing a style that mixed pop, rockabilly, and R&B, Gracie was also Philadelphia's first rock & roll star, the first successful artist on that city's famed Cameo Records, as well as an early regular on American Bandstand. Gracie was still in high school when he began performing at local talent shows, parties, and social events, and he released his first single in 1953. He was a seasoned performer when he recorded "Butterfly" in 1957, which became a number one hit in America and the U.K. Months later, he scored another major hit with "Fabulous," and became only the second American rock & roller to do a British tour. While Gracie would continue to record through the '60s, digging deeper into his R&B influences, he would never have another major hit in America, but he continued to perform regularly in the United States as well as England, Europe, and the Netherlands. Gracie was cited as a major influence by George Harrison, Graham Nash, Van Morrison, and Paul McCartney. Beginning in 2001, Gracie began recording again with the album I'm All Right, and in 2011, he teamed with studio legend Al Kooper to cut the LP For the Love of Charlie.
01:33 - 2 - life:
Born May 14, 1936 (the same day as Bobby Darin), with his surname originally spelled "Graci", Charlie Gracie grew up in South Philadelphia, listening to country music and big-band jazz. At age ten, he obtained his first guitar, and by 15 he was a prodigy, performing regularly and winning contests on the simulcast radio and television show of early jazz great Paul Whiteman. Signed first to Cadillac Records, Gracie's first single, "Boogie-Woogie Blues," recorded in 1951, was not a hit, nor were a couple of follow-ups for other labels. In 1956, he was signed to the fledgling Cameo label. Gracie's first recording for the label consisted of two songs written by the label's co-owners, Bernie Lowe and Kal Mann, "Butterfly" and "Ninety-Nine Ways." With repeated appearances on American Bandstand, as well as The Ed Sullivan Show and other TV programs of the day, Gracie's popularity soared, and by April 1957, "Butterfly" had reached number one in the States. ("Butterfly" also became a chart-topper for crooner Andy Williams the same year.) Gracie's style was not as raucous as fellow early rockers such as Gene Vincent or Eddie Cochran, but he made up for any loss of grit with an undeniable professionalism and easy likability. likability guitar style has been described as a mix of rockabilly, jump blues, swing, and country boogie, while his vocals incorporate pop, blues, R&B, and rock & roll influences.
03:09 - 3 - successes:
Another Mann-Lowe composition, "Fabulous," followed "Butterfly" in the spring of 1957, reaching number 16 in the U.S. and number eight in the U.K. Gracie subsequently toured the U.K. -- only the second American rock & roll act to tour there, following Bill Haley & the Comets -- headlining at the Hippodrome Theater. He scored only one further hit in America, "I Love You So Much It Hurts," written by country singer Floyd Tillman, which only reached number 71 (although it reached number 14 in the U.K.). His biggest hit in England was yet to come, "Wanderin' Eyes," which reached number six there, and he logged his final U.K. hit with 1957's "Cool Baby." Gracie continued to record for Cameo into 1958, when he had a falling out with Lowe; Gracie would later file suit against Cameo for unpaid royalties. Dick Clark, who had a business relationship with Cameo, didn't book him on American Bandstand after that, and Gracie faded from the charts.
He recorded for several other labels into the '60s, including Coral and Roulette, and he continued to perform regularly both near Philadelphia, in the U.K., and in Europe, where the rockabilly revival kept his popularity high for decades. In 2001, Gracie struck up a friendship with Quentin Jones, a guitarist and rockabilly enthusiast who ran the independent Lanark Record label. Jones and Gracie began working together, with Jones anchoring the band when Gracie played a string of dates opening for Van Morrison, as well as producing his 2001 studio effort I'm All Right. In 2006, after many years out of print, Gracie's Cameo Records material was finally released on the CD compilation The Best of Charlie Gracie 1956-1958, and the following year, a documentary film chronicling his life story, Fabulous, was aired on PBS stations. In 2011, Gracie and Jones teamed with legendary producer and sideman Al Kooper to cut a new album. For the Love of Charlie included guest appearances from longtime fans Graham Nash, Peter Noone (of Herman's Hermits), Jimmy Vivino (from Conan O'Brien's band), and Dennis Diken (of the Smithereens).

Rattlesnakes use a variation of the venom in your fangs
00:00 - Rattlesnakes use a variation of the venom in your fangs
00:06 - 1 - evolution of nature:
In the evolutionary arms race between rattlesnakes and their prey, rodents, birds and other reptiles developed resistance to the snakes’ deadly venom in order to survive. But new research led by the University of Colorado Boulder and the University of Texas at Arlington sheds light on how snakes manage to hold the upper hand: They maintain a broad and diverse toolkit of genes that encode snake venom. , allowing them to adapt as local prey. Terms change.
Findings, published today nature ecology and evolution, Help explain how rattlesnakes have evolved resistance to their venom over millions of years with prey species. This research reverses a decades-long idea of ??what factors shape venom gene development and venom variation, and sheds new light on why it is so challenging to develop effective antivenom treatments for snakebites.
“We found that the more diverse venom performance in these rattlesnakes, the more genetic tools in the toolkit, may suggest their venom composition alone,” said Drew Schild, lead author of the paper and postdoctoral fellow in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at CU Boulder.
Snake venom, an evolutionary adaptation, is composed of various enzymes and toxins that enable snakes to capture their prey. For decades, biologists have thought that co-evolution between predator and prey would cause snake venom to become highly specialized: the venom evolving to effectively kill specific prey and untapped venom genes impede genetic diversity. is disappearing. Known in evolutionary biology as “directional selection,” this process is like a knife’s edge—while the weapon becomes more lethal, it loses itself a bit in the process.
01:52 - 2 - Evolutionary process:
The new study proposes that instead, “equilibrium selection” is the mechanism at play, an evolutionary process where multiple versions of a gene – in this case, the gene that encodes the venom protein – are retained rather than eliminated. This may be the key to how snakes keep themselves from going down evolutionary dead ends.
“The existence of these resistance mechanisms in prey led us to wonder: If selection pressure is put back on snakes, it makes sense to have an evolutionarily more expanded venom arsenal,” Schild said.
Since rattlesnakes prey on a wide variety of animals, including rats, voles, birds and lizards, over time selection can not only maintain, but actively select for greater venom gene diversity, something that previously No research has been shown.
“Our findings help to explain decades of conflicting theory and evidence for extreme variation observed in snake venoms. It turns out that the arms race between snakes and prey favors a constant re-shuffle of venom types. Which are favored, said co-author Todd Castow, a professor of biology at the University of Texas at Arlington, “leading to the retention of many toxin forms over time, some of which are ancient.”
Population Level Insights
03:10 - 3 - popular study:
During their work as a graduate student and postdoctoral researcher at the University of Texas at Arlington in 2019, Shields and her colleagues discovered where venom genes reside in the rattlesnake genome, which was mostly a mystery until that point. Now knowing the genetic structure of the venom as a trait (published in) genome research), he realized that scientists could investigate what evolutionary mechanisms were acting on toxin genes.
Snake venom is a popular study topic, with genes being a promising model for understanding the origins of novelty. But previous studies in this area have not explored how selection has shaped this trait within closely related populations, so the researchers focused on select populations of rattlesnakes in Colorado, Montana, California and Idaho.
After locating the locations where these snakes live, Shields and her co-authors traveled to a series of sites over several years in the late spring and early summer from 2017 to 2020, where they found the species living in the western United States. Collected 68 rattlesnakes belonging to two different species. To sample their blood, venom and take physical measurements.
They sequenced and analyzed genomes from these rattlesnake species, examining genetic variation in the regions of the genome housing the venom genes. They found striking genetic diversity and strong evidence for natural selection to maintain multiple variants of different toxin genes, adding to the growing body of evidence that balancing selection is more widespread in nature than previously thought.
Based on the new study, Shields suspects that directional selection may have driven the origin of venom, a balance shift in more recent times towards balancing selection in favor of diverse venom repertoires. .
This may be one reason why snakebites are extremely difficult to treat.
“These evolutionary mechanisms add to the complexity that you’re opposed to when you evolve antivenom as venom composition within the same species, but can be completely different in different geographic regions,” Shields said.
Schild said understanding how diverse the genomes of venomous snakes really are — from rattlesnakes to cobras and coral snakes — could inform advances in anti-venom therapeutics and save lives around the world.

Abandoned cobalt mine rediscovered with ‘time capsule’ of artefacts
00:00 - Abandoned cobalt mine rediscovered with ‘time capsule’ of artefacts
00:07 - 1 - Rediscovery:
An abandoned Cobalt mine from the early 19th century has been rediscovered at Alderley Edge in Cheshire, England, containing a ‘time capsule’ of artefacts left behind by the workers.
Ed Coghlan of the Derbyshire Caving Club said: “To find a mine in pristine condition, together with such personal objects and inscriptions, is rare. It is a compelling window into the past and to the last day when the mine workers stopped their activities.”
Mining in Alderley Edge dates to the prehistoric period, with large scale cobalt extraction occurring during the early 19th century because of the Napoleonic Wars.
00:46 - 2 - Cobalt extraction:
Cobalt was used for the blue colouring in pottery and glass, as well as a blue pigment in many famous paintings, but with the UK market returning to imports for the raw material, the Alderley Edge mine was subsequently abandoned in 1810.
The National Trust took ownership of the mine which has been leased to the Derbyshire Caving Club since the 1970s. For the past 50 years, the club has been searching for previously unexplored areas, discovering the abandoned cobalt mine in 2021.
01:18 - 3 - Time capsule:
Since then, a detailed study has been undertaken, revealing a ‘time capsule’ of leather shoes, clay pipes, a metal button from a jacket, along with mining machinery and inscriptions written in candle soot.
The inscriptions show the initials “WS” – with the date of the 20th August 1810. Other basic initials and numbers have also been found in ‘cribs’ or rest areas, as if the miners had been learning and practicing their writing.
01:48 - 4 - Fingerprints:
Also uncovered was a clay bowl buried in a wall, a practice that may have been followed by superstitious miners as an offering of thanks for a good vein of mineral. Other discoveries include clearly defined fingerprints in clay used to hold candles, and the imprint of corduroy from a worker’s clothing where he leaned against a wall.

00:00 - jimmy mccracklin
00:03 - 1 - Popular singer:
Blues singer Jimmy McCracklin
Jimmy McCracklin, a popular blues singer and pianist whose career spanned more than six decades and whose songs were recorded by such performers as Otis Redding, Joe Tex, Elvin Bishop and Jerry Garcia, died Dec. 20 at a nursing facility in San Pablo, Calif. He was 91.
He had diabetes and hypertension. His death was first reported by the San Francisco Chronicle.
An entry in Encyclopedia of the Blues, published by the University of Arkansas Press, calls Mr. McCracklin “one of the great composers in blues history, with his depth of feeling, his sense of phrasing and his conciseness.”
Mr. McCracklin had a rare ability among blues singers to adapt to changing musical tastes. While his earliest records from 1945 were sung to a lone piano accompaniment, his later records encompassed jump blues, rock-and-roll and soul music.
01:04 - 2 - Series of hits:
His most popular record, “The Walk” (1958), a jaunty dance record propelled by guitarist Lafayette Thomas’s syncopated guitar hook, reached No. 7 on the Billboard pop charts.
The song garnered Mr. McCracklin an appearance on American Bandstand and charted again in 1980 in an almost note-for-note remake by the Inmates, a British band.
Through the 1960s, Mr. McCracklin had a string of self-composed rhythm-and-blues hits that bridged the gap between blues and the newer Southern soul style. The songs included “Just Got To Know” (1962), “Every Night, Every Day” (1965), “My Answer” (1966) and “Think” (1965), which was later recorded by Garcia, of Grateful Dead fame.
Mr. McCracklin also was remembered for a song that he co-wrote but didn’t originally record, Lowell Fulson’s “Tramp” (1967), a standard among soul performers. It was covered that same year by Redding and Carla Thomas, who did it as a duet, and by Joe Tex, who retitled it “Papa Was, Too.” The song proved to have a long shelf-life: In 1987, the duo Salt-N-Pepa redid it in a hip-hop style.
02:21 - 3 - Elder of the blues:
The half-spoken song, at times almost a proto-rap, was a humorous expression of pride for rural African Americans, many of whom had recently relocated to the city.
In later decades, Mr. McCracklin became a mainstay of blues festivals and was regarded as something of a blues elder. The Los Angeles-based roots rock band the Blasters took their name from Mr. McCracklin’s backup unit, the Blues Blasters.
James David Walker was born on Aug. 13, 1921, in Helena, Ark., and took the surname McCracklin from his stepfather. When he was 9, his family moved to St. Louis, where he met Walter Davis, a popular blues singer and pianist of the 1930s who taught the youngster the basics of blues piano.
Mr. McCracklin joined the Navy after graduating from high school. Near the end of World War II, he attempted a boxing career in Southern California but was permenently sidelined by a dislocated shoulder incurred in a car accident. He made his first records in Los Angeles in 1945 and then moved to Richmond, Calif., near Oakland, in 1947.
His wife, Beulah McCracklin, died in 2008. Survivors include a daughter; five stepchildren; and two grandchildren.
03:42 - 4 - The real life:
In a 2003 interview with writer Lee Hildebrand in Living Blues, Mr. McCracklin reflected on his approach as a blues writer and the lessons learned from Walter Davis.
“He [Davis] said, ‘What I write, I put the truth in there because I want to tell you about what happened to me could happen to you or what happened to you could happen to me,’?” Mr. McCracklin said.?
“This is the way I put my lyrics together,” he added. “It’s real life.”

What If All of the Volcanoes on Earth Erupted at Once?
00:00 - What If All of the Volcanoes on Earth Erupted at Once?
00:05 - 1 - Eruption at the same time:
What if one day you turned on the news channel to learn that every active volcano on Earth is erupting. If all the volcanoes on Earth erupted at once, would our planet survive all the ash, molten lava, and scorching gasses? How far up into the atmosphere would the ash go? Would there be anyone left to report the news?
Not all volcanoes would pose a danger. Extinct volcanoes – those that haven’t erupted in the last 10,000 years – just don’t have any magma left to erupt again.
However, at any given time, there are 10 to 20 volcanoes erupting somewhere on Earth. In total, there are 1,500 active volcanoes on land, and an unknown number of them underwater. 20 of those on land are known as super volcanoes. The largest one is Yellowstone – you could place the entire city of Tokyo in its crater. What if all of them erupted all at once? What would this apocalypse look like exactly?
If all active volcanoes on Earth went off at the same time, there would be a lot of explosions.
01:13 - 2 - Gigantic cloud:
Explosive eruptions would churn out wall of rocks, ash and gas, wiping out the nearby areas. You wouldn’t be able to outdrive that giant hot cloud – rocks as hot as 1,000°C (1,830°F) would be traveling faster than as 700 kph (450 mph).
But not all volcanoes would erupt that powerfully. Instead of violently expelling magma, some volcanoes would steadily eject it on the ground. That’s called an effusive eruption. If your local volcano erupted that way, consider yourself lucky.But not for too long.
Other eruptions would be sending plumes of ash into the air. They would travel for thousands of kilometers, and cover the Earth with the thick blanket of ash.
Ashy clouds would block the sunlight – plunging the whole planet into complete darkness. Without sunlight, there’s no chance of photosynthesis. All the plants would die, including all the crops that feed us and the animals. Even if the crops could somehow survive without the sun, they’d be wiped out by acidic rains.
Because volcanic ash is actually tiny rock particles, it would be very heavy. If enough ash were to fall on your roof, your home would collapse.
02:33 - 3 - Low visibility:
You’re not escaping this in an airplane.The hot clouds of ash would melt car and plane engines. All flights would be cancelled anyway, because of the low visibility. Deep ocean volcanoes made the water acidic. In such environment, sea life would suffer huge losses. The entire food chain would be devastated.
Because no sun rays would reach the Earth’s surface, the planet would significantly cool down, to the point that we might end up in a new Ice Age. In the long-term though, the global temperatures would change again – this time getting much hotter. With all carbon dioxide released during the eruptions, we’d see a tremendous greenhouse effect, that would heat up the planet again.
Now, if you survived the volcanic explosions and didn’t die from breathing in the ash, the safest place for you might be on a ship in the middle of the ocean. Or in an underground bunker. Just make sure you have enough food supplies and warm clothes to keep you alive in this post-apocalyptic world.
Before coming out, you’ll need to wait until the atmosphere clears up, that’s going to take a very, very long time.
03:43 - 4 - The result:
And you wouldn’t be seeing the Earth you once knew. Prolonged volcanic eruptions spewing from the planet’s mantle would dump this partly-molten layer on the surface, causing a mass imbalance. As a result, our planet might tip over – just like Mars did about 3.5 billion years ago. Paris might end up on the North Pole.
Of course, as always, such a scenario is very unlikely to happen. At least there is no evidence of all volcanoes erupting at once in the 4-billion-year history of Earth. But is it better to be prepared for everything?

The Rivingtons
00:00 - The Rivingtons
00:03 - 1 - The Rivingtons Biography:
Most people in the early 2000s are surprised to find out about the Rivingtons -- that's primarily because people mostly discover their existence when they hear one of the group's three hits, "Papa-Oom-Mow-Mow," "Mama-Oom-Mow-Mow (The Bird)," and "The Bird's the Word," which are much, much better known in their composite re-recording by the Trashmen (as "Surfin' Bird"). And when they hear the Rivingtons' version, they're inevitably surprised by the fine singing and superb R&B phrasing, miles away from the Trashmen's punk stylings. Their version of the song was just as nonsensical, but it had amazing class and panache, and it's more than that -- it's part of a story of superb singing, bird dances and surfin' birds, great dances and even better times, before the world of the 1960s got all dark and serious and too dangerous for good clean fun.
00:54 - 2 - Beginning:
The Rivingtons were a West Coast vocal group whose lineup featured Al Frazier, Carl White, John "Sonny" Harris, and Turner "Rocky" Wilson Jr. That lineup went through myriad reshapings to get there, along with renamings -- they weren't even the Rivingtons to start with. It all started with Al Frazier, in high school in Los Angeles at the end of the 1940s, who sang baritone and formed his own group, the Mello-Moods, whose ranks included future Platters member Paul Robi. They had aspirations to record, but never got that lucky -- Frazier went into the army and served in Korea, which didn't interrupt his desire for a music career. When he got out he formed a new outfit, a mixed male/female quartet called Emanons (which was "No Names" backwards). They were good enough to wrangle a TV appearance locally in 1952, but that was as far as they ascended. Then, in 1953, Frazier crossed paths with lead singer Thurston Harris, bass singer Matthew Nelson, baritone Leon Hughes, and tenor Willie Ray Rockwell, at an amateur night run by the legendary deejay Hunter Hancock -- they had a group but no moves, and Frazier had some moves to suggest, and suddenly they were a quintet, then went back to being a quartet when Hughes left the lineup. The four-man outfit, called the Lamplighters, were signed to Federal Records, part of Syd Nathan's King Records, and began making their name all over the West Coast during the run -- up to the middle of the 1950s.
02:23 - 3 -Stop:
They were doing well, young men loving their work and getting lots of it, and then, while on the East Coast, Thurston Harris suddenly got homesick for Indianapolis and decided to leave the act. The group was on hiatus and might have stayed that way if Willie Ray Rockwell hadn't pointed Frazier to a pair of singers, tenor John "Sonny" Harris and lead Carl White, with Nelson returning to establish the lineup that would carry them for the next few years. The only problem was that the record company felt it was ill-advised to release a new Lamplighters single with a new lead singer, so instead of picking up where the latter group had left off, they were renamed the Tenderfoots and forced to rebuild their reputation and audience. They got four records out on Federal without any significant sales or airplay, and their bookings were similarly slim. They tried to bring Thurston Harris back into the lineup but that didn't last. And they spent time appearing on other artists' records -- including a credit as "the Jacks" behind Paul Anka on "Blau-Wile-Deveest-Fontaine," and were signed to the Jamie label as the Sharps by producer Lester Sill (of future Phil Spector fame) in 1956. They bounced around some more, to Aladdin Records, where they even ended up singing behind Thurston Harris, on records including "Little Bitty Pretty One." Their next stop was Tag Records and then to Combo Records, with "Look What You've Done to Me," which was later picked up by Dot Records for national distribution. Then it was back to Jamie, where they cut more sides of their own and sang behind Duane Eddy, among others (they were the Rebels in that incarnation). Finally, at the very end of the 1950s, Matthew Nelson left the fold and was replaced on bass by Turner "Rocky" Wilson Jr., and that lineup sang behind artists including bandleader/actor/trumpeter Ray Anthony (of Mamie Van Doren fame). There was also a stint as the Four After Fives and another as the Crenshaws, working with producer Kim Fowley on "Hello School Teacher," and backing Roy Milton, and cutting sides for Warner Bros..
04:25 - 4 - The great success:
Their break came one day when they were fooling around in the studio and Rocky Wilson suddenly came up with the "papa-oom-mow-mow" vocal line, done basso, and everyone loved it. The resulting LP was startlingly compelling record that Fowley steered, along with the group, to a pair of producers, Jack Levy and Adam Ross. They came up with a $1200 advance for the song and against an eventual contract with group, and the name the Rivingtons (derived from the two having once lived on Rivington Street on New York's Lower East Side). They offered the recording to Capitol, who turned it down as a little too far-out (that from a label that recorded Yma Sumac and released the single "Tsukiaki"). Instead, it went to Capitol's younger rival, Liberty Records, who bought it but then sat on it for six months trying to figure out how to sell a song called "Papa-Oom-Mow-Mow."
The group and their managers had no doubt how to sell it -- play it, sing it, get it heard. Which is exactly what they did, at a performing showcase for deejays in Los Angeles. The deejays loved what they heard, and asked for a record to promote, and the managers duly provided them with "Papa-Oom-Mow-Mow." It spread across the Los Angeles airwaves, and out from there to California, and suddenly there was no decision to be made about marketing the song -- it sold itself, and all Liberty had to do was ship them, the song did the rest. One of the reasons for its appeal was that yes, it was a nonsense song, but the members sang it with such spirit and élan, that it wasn't a "guilty pleasure" or an embarrassing novelty record -- it was silly, but it was also viscerally exciting like the very best R&B dance records, and sung that way. Like an amazing number of other "novelty" singles -- "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer", "Short Shorts," and "Papa-Oom-Mow-Mow's distant successor, "Na Na Hey Hey (Kiss Him Goodbye)," it was cut initially as a joke, an after-thought, at the end of a session, and worked its way into the vernacular infectiously.
06:26 - 5 - End of the group:
An album followed, entitled Doin' the Bird, in late 1962, that the group wasn't too happy about, and a follow-up single, "Mama-Oom-Mow-Mow," but not before "Kickapoo Joy Juice" interrupted their momentum. They followed with up with "The Bird's the Word," which capitalized on the first two records on that theme, and then "The Shaky Bird." They rode the crest of a wave for a year, into the second half of 1963. By that time, a Minneapolis-based surf band called the Trashmen co-opted the boom started by the Rivingtons, combining their first and third Liberty singles into a composite work entitled "Surfin' Bird," pushing the beat into warp nine and rocketing them to the Top Ten and linking the Rivingtons forever to the tail-end of the surf music craze and also, to an extent, displacing the originals -- by the time the Ramones began playing it a decade or so later, it was already a standard piece of punk band repertory. The Rivingtons kept making good records but never found a replacement for the "bird" craze around which to wrap their work. "Cherry" was a straight R&B ballad, and "Weejee Walk," which closed out their Liberty career, was an attempt at another dance piece. The group bounced around some more, between Reprise Records and Adam Ross's own label, and Columbia Records, before forming their own label, Quan, in 1967. They were Carlos & the Rivingtons at one point, and in 1973, amid the oldies craze, they did an updated version of "Papa-Oom-Mow-Mow." Carl White, who passed away at the end of the decade, was succeeded by Andrew Butler, and as of the early 1990s, a version of the Rivingtons was still performing. In 1991, EMI Records, which had acquired the Liberty library, issued Liberty Years, a 23-song compilation of the group's Liberty sides. It's glorious, a magnificent collection of stunning vocals, and as priceless and essential a body of music as the best work of Bo Diddley, Johnny Otis, or any other foundation rockers you care to name.

Gene Vicente
00:00 - Gene Vicente
00:04 - 1 - Biography:
Gene Vincent only had one really big hit, "Be-Bop-a-Lula," which epitomized rockabilly at its prime in 1956 with its sharp guitar breaks, spare snare drums, fluttering echo, and Vincent's breathless, sexy vocals. Yet his place as one of the great early rock & roll singers is secure, backed up by a wealth of fine smaller hits and non-hits that rate among the best rockabilly of all time. The leather-clad, limping, greasy-haired singer was also one of rock's original bad boys, lionized by romanticists of past and present generations attracted to his primitive, sometimes savage style and indomitable spirit.
00:45 - 2 - Serious accident:
Vincent was bucking the odds by entering professional music in the first place. As a 20-year-old in the Navy, he suffered a severe motorcycle accident that almost resulted in the amputation of his leg, and left him with a permanent limp and considerable chronic pain for the rest of his life. After the accident he began to concentrate on building a musical career, playing with country bands around the Norfolk, Virginia area. Demos cut at a local radio station, fronting a band assembled around Gene by his management, landed Gene Vincent & the Blue Caps a contract with Capitol, which hoped they'd found competition for Elvis Presley.
01:25 - 3 - Accelerated rhythm:
Indeed it had, as by this time Vincent had plunged into all-out rockabilly, capable of both fast-paced exuberance and whispery, almost sensitive ballads. The Blue Caps were one of the greatest rock bands of the '50s, anchored at first by the stunning silvery, faster-than-light guitar leads of Cliff Gallup. The slap-back echo of "Be-Bop-a-Lula," combined with Gene's swooping vocals, led many to mistake the singer for Elvis when the record first hit the airwaves in mid-1956 on its way to the Top Ten. The Elvis comparison wasn't entirely fair; Vincent had a gentler, less melodramatic style, capable of both whipping up a storm or winding down to a hush.
Brilliant follow-ups like "Race With the Devil," "Bluejean Bop," and "B-I-Bickey, Bi, Bo-Bo-Go" failed to click in nearly as big a way, although these too are emblematic of rockabilly at its most exuberant and powerful. By the end of 1956, the Blue Caps were beginning to undergo the first of constant personnel changes that would continue throughout the '50s, the most crucial loss being the departure of Gallup. The 35 or so tracks he cut with the band -- many of which showed up only on albums or B-sides -- were unquestionably Vincent's greatest work, as his subsequent recordings would never again capture their pristine clarity and uninhibited spontaneity.
Vincent had his second and final Top 20 hit in 1957 with "Lotta Lovin'," which reflected his increasingly tamer approach to production and vocals, the wildness and live atmosphere toned down in favor of poppier material, more subdued guitars, and conventional-sounding backup singers. He recorded often for Capitol throughout the rest of the '50s, and it's unfair to dismiss those sides out of hand; they were respectable, occasionally exciting rockabilly, only a marked disappointment in comparison with his earliest work. His act was captured for posterity in one of the best scenes of one of the first Hollywood films to feature rock & roll stars, The Girl Can't Help It.
03:28 - 4 - Decay:
Live, Vincent continued to rock the house with reckless intensity and showmanship, and he became particularly popular overseas. A 1960 tour of Britain, though, brought tragedy when his friend Eddie Cochran, who shared the bill on Vincent's U.K. shows, died in a car accident that he was also involved in, though Vincent survived. By the early '60s, his recordings had become much more sporadic and lower in quality, and his chief audience was in Europe, particularly in England (where he lived for a while) and France.
His Capitol contract expired in 1963, and he spent the rest of his life recording for several other labels, none of which got him close to that comeback hit. Vincent never stopped trying to resurrect his career, appearing at a 1969 Toronto rock festival on the same bill as John Lennon. Two years later, he died at the age of 36 from a ruptured stomach ulcer, one of rock's first mythic figures.

Smallest remote-controlled walking robot ever
00:00 - Smallest remote-controlled walking robot ever
00:06 - 1 - Smallest walking robot:
The small robotic crab can walk, bend, twist, turn and jump
The smallest-ever remote-controlled walking robot has been created by Northwestern University engineers, and it takes the shape of a tiny, cute peekytoe crab.
The tiny crabs, which are about half a millimeter wide, can bend, twist, crawl, walk, turn, and even leap. Additionally, the scientists created millimeter-sized robots that resemble inchworms, crickets, and beetles. The study is experimental at this time, but the researchers think their technique might move the field closer to developing tiny robots that can carry out useful tasks in small, cramped areas.
The study was recently published in the journal Science Robotics. The same team also unveiled a winged microprocessor in September of last year; it was the tiniest flying object ever created by humans (published on the cover of Nature).
“Robotics is an exciting field of research, and the development of microscale robots is a fun topic for academic exploration,” said John A. Rogers, who led the experimental work. “You might imagine micro-robots as agents to repair or assemble small structures or machines in industry or as surgical assistants to clear clogged arteries, to stop internal bleeding or to eliminate cancerous tumors — all in minimally invasive procedures.”
01:31 - 2 - Technology:
“Our technology enables a variety of controlled motion modalities and can walk with an average speed of half its body length per second,” added Yonggang Huang, who led the theoretical work. “This is very challenging to achieve at such small scales for terrestrial robots.”
Rogers, a pioneer in the field of bioelectronics, is the director of the Querrey Simpson Institute for Bioelectronics (QSIB) and the Louis Simpson and Kimberly Querrey Professor of Materials Science and Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, and Neurological Surgery at Northwestern University. Huang serves as a key member of QSIB and is the Jan and Marcia Achenbach Professor of Mechanical Engineering and Civil and Environmental Engineering at McCormick.
The crab, which is smaller than a flea, is not propelled by sophisticated machinery, hydraulics, or electricity. Instead, the elastic resilience of its body is where its power rests. The researchers employed a shape-memory alloy material to build the robot, which transforms to its “remembered” shape when heated. In this case, the scientists heated the robot quickly at several targeted spots all over its body using a scanned laser beam. Upon cooling, a thin layer of glass will elastically restore the distorted shape of the corresponding component of the structure.
As the robot changes from one phase to another — deformed to remembered shape and back again — it creates locomotion. Not only does the laser remotely control the robot to activate it, the laser scanning direction also determines the robot’s walking direction. Scanning from left to right, for example, causes the robot to move from right to left.
03:16 - 3 - Development:
“Because these structures are so tiny, the rate of cooling is very fast,” Rogers explained. “In fact, reducing the sizes of these robots allows them to run faster.”
To manufacture such a tiny critter, Rogers and Huang turned to a technique they introduced eight years ago — a pop-up assembly method inspired by a child’s pop-up book.
First, the team fabricated precursors to the walking crab structures in flat, planar geometries. Then, they bonded these precursors onto a slightly stretched rubber substrate. When the stretched substrate is relaxed, a controlled buckling process occurs that causes the crab to “pop up” into precisely defined three-dimensional forms.
With this manufacturing method, the Northwestern team could develop robots of various shapes and sizes. So why a peekytoe crab? We can thank Rogers’ and Huang’s students for that.
“With these assembly techniques and materials concepts, we can build walking robots with almost any size or 3D shapes,” Rogers said. “But the students felt inspired and amused by the sideways crawling motions of tiny crabs. It was a creative whim.”

RATANABÁ : world center was centered in Peru, Colombia, Brazil and Bolivia, evidence indicates
00:00 - RATANABÁ : world center was centered in Peru, Colombia, Brazil and Bolivia, evidence indicates
00:10 - 1 - Evidence:
Researchers have long assumed that the Amazon River basin, which includes the modern-day countries of Peru, Colombia, Brazil and Bolivia, did not become densely populated until the arrival of Spanish colonists in the late 15th century. This assumption was based on the simple fact that the lands around the basin experience severe flooding during the rainy seasons, making permanent settlement almost impossible without the aid of advanced technology.
One of the few skeptics was Heiko Prümers, an archaeologist with a focus on Latin America who teaches at the University of Bonn. Over 20 years ago, he set out with his colleague Carla Jaimes Betancourt — then a student studying in La Paz — to investigate two mounds located near the village of Casarabe in northern Bolivia. The mounds, a university press release recalls, “turned out to be eroded pyramid stumps and platform buildings.” In other words: evidence of settlement.
Subsequent studies confirmed Prümers’ suspicion. Bioarchaeological analysis showed that these buildings were not unoccupied ceremonial sites. Instead, they were used year-round by a community that farmed, fished, and hunted for food. These agriculturalists, named the Casarabe culture, could be found throughout northern Bolivia during the Late Holocene epoch. Their home turf was the Llanos de Mojos, a tropical savannah that spans more than 4,500 square km.
01:40 - 2 - Lidar doesn’t lie:
Over the years, we have learned a lot about the Casarabe culture. We know they engaged in agriculture as well as aquaculture, and used water-control systems to protect themselves from the Amazon basin. We also know that their society had a surprisingly complex sociopolitical organization, with trade flowing back and forth between economic bases. They not only made mounds, but also dug canals, ditches, and causeways.
This information was gathered from dozens of archaeological sites, many of which were separated by more than 1,000 kilometers. When studying an ancient civilization as dispersed as the Casarabe culture, it can be difficult to visualize how individual settlements are related to each other in three-dimensional space — and that’s especially true for a landscape as untamed and inaccessible as the Amazon river basin.
Lacking the logistical resources necessary to traverse the Llanos de Mojos on foot, Prümers and Betancourt decided they would try to create a map of the Casarabe culture using light detection and ranging technology. This technology, better known as lidar, previously helped archaeologists get a clearer picture of Olmec and Mayan urban planning in Mesoamerica. Prümers’ team surveyed an area of 204 square km, concentrating on major excavation sites.
03:02 - 3 - Cotoca and Landíva: urban centers:
The lidar scans mapped out a total of 26 Casarabe settlements, 15 of which were already known to exist. The researchers then organized the settlements into five distinct categories, based on the dimensions of their architecture, the scale of water management infrastructure, and the number of causeways leading to and from the sites, among other factors.
Two settlements were considerably larger than the others and likely acted as both cultural and economic centers. Named Cotoca and Landíva, they span more than 100 hectares and are surrounded by moats and ramparts. “At the Cotoca site,” Prümers’ research paper reports, “the inner defensive structures are only preserved in some sections, which may suggest that when the site grew, ramparts were adapted accordingly.”
Both Cotoca and Landíva were constructed around large complexes of civic and ceremonial architecture. Lidar scans revealed that these complexes were built to face north-northwest. This, according to the paper, probably reflects an as of yet unknown cosmological view that might also be present in the uniform orientation of the Casarabe culture’s burial mounds. Certainly, this practice would be consistent with other pre-Columbian civilizations, including the Mayans and Olmecs.
04:23 - 4 - Mapping the Amazon wetlands:
Settlements in the second category were significantly smaller in size, with areas ranging between 21 and 41 hectares. These so-called secondary sites also feature civic-ceremonial architecture built upon base platforms. Settlements belonging to the third and fourth categories are smaller still, spanning 2.5 and 0.34 hectares, respectively. The fifth category is a hypothetical one, containing settlements without mounded architecture that could not be detected by lidar.
As expected, lidar revealed a lot about Casarabe urban planning. Most settlements seem to have been built within 10 km of each other. The eastern region of the Llanos de Mojos is significantly denser than the other regions, with the average distance between settlements dropping to between roughly 1.8 and 4.0 km. Most settlements were organized in clusters of 100-500 square km and connected via causeways and canals.
Unsurprisingly, the highest number of waterworks are found around Cotoca and Landíva. From Cotoca, specifically, canals radiate “in all of the cardinal connections, connecting with lower-tier sites, the Ibare River to the south, and lakes to the east.” One of these canals, which leads to Laguna San José, is more than 7 km in length. This impressive feat of engineering underscores the importance of Cotoca, which served as the center of an area of 500 square km.
05:59 - 5 - A fresh perspective:
More than 20 years following their initial investigations, Prümers and Betancourt have challenged everything the academic community thought it knew about pre-Columbian life in the Amazon river basin. “At the regional level,” their study, published in May, concludes, “the lidar data combined with previous archaeological-reconnaissance and remote-sensing data show that the Casarabe culture has a highly integrated, continuous and dense settlement system.”
The Casarabe culture occupies a special place in the history of archaeological excavations in Latin America. While major pre-Columbian settlements like Cotoca and Landíva are not unique, the same cannot be said for the many smaller settlements the lidar scans brought into view. According to Prümers and Betancourt’s study, these places represent “the first known case [of low-density urbanization] for the entire tropical lowlands of South America.”
The largest Amazon settlements also compare favorably to other ancient cities found in South America. That is to say, they are of a much larger scale than the settlements built along the Andes mountains as well as southern Amazonia in general. Indeed, the architecture found in both Cotoca and Landíva may well have required the greatest amount of skilled labor of any construction from the same time period in the entire continent.
