BILL HALEY and HIS COMETS
00:00 - BILL HALEY and HIS COMETS
00:05 - 1 - Start:
In a second floor apartment in a blue-collar section of Detroit, Michigan, William John Clifton Haley was born to William and Maude Haley in 1925. This boy, who would be known later as Bill Haley, was the second child in the Haley family. Bill had an older sister, Margaret, who was two years old at his birth. The Haley's were a working class family with William Haley Sr., a Kentucky native, working as a mechanic, and Maude Haley working for 25 cents an hour giving piano lessons.
Despite the Haley's humble means, both of Bill's parents were musically talented. His mother was an immigrant from Lancashire, England, where she had studied classical piano and often played the organ in church. His father, who was part Cherokee Indian, had quit school as a child in order to earn money for his family, and did not know how to read music but could pick out tunes on a guitar by ear. Most of the music that William Sr. chose to listen to was Country and young Bill soon became interested in this style as well. Bill had seemingly inherited his father's talent for playing music by ear.
At the age of 13, Bill Haley's dream was to become a singing cowboy. In 1938, the boy received his first real guitar as a Christmas gift and his father taught him how to play. With guitar lessons from his father and singing lessons from his mother, Bill Haley was beginning a lifetime in music.
01:32 - 2 - The end of school:
In 1940, Bill left school after the eighth grade to take a job at the Bethel Springs Water Bottling Company. He was paid 35 cents an hour to fill five-gallon glass bottles with water from the spring. Following his employment at Bethel Springs, he worked for a time in at Baldwin Locomotive Works in Eddystone, Pennsylvania, near where his family had relocated.
01:58 - 3 - The band:
Bill Haley would have his go at being a singing cowboy in 1943, when he formed his first band. He wore a white cowboy hat along with a red suit and cowboy boots. His band was named the "Down Homers." For a period of about three years, Haley traveled with the band before returning home in 1946. By the time he was twenty-one, Bill had decided to abandon the idea of becoming a singing cowboy.
02:26 - 4 - Band name:
In 1947, he became a disc jockey the radio station, WPWA. During the same time period, Haley got together with three other musicians to form a band called the "Four Aces of Western Swing". The band combined several musical styles in their work including hillbilly, Dixieland and Western Swing. Because Bill had connections through his work with the radio station, the band easily obtained bookings. Briefly, Bill tried out changing his name to Jack Haley and created another band called "Jack Haley and his All Western Sextette."
Haley's next band was to be called Bill Haley and His Saddlemen, which he formed with Johnny Grande and Billy Williamson. Of the three, John Grande was the only one who could read music and so he became the recorder and arranger of their material. The Keystone label produced the band's first records in 1950. The style of the band at the time was Western Swing and some of their songs included "Ten Gallon Stetson and Susan Van Dusan", "Deal Me a Hand" and "I'm Not To Blame".
In 1952, Bill Haley wrote a song called "Rock A Beatin' Bogie", in which he used the soon to become well-known phrase "rock and roll" when playing around with the lyrics. His words and his style later had a tremendous influence of many younger stars including Elvis Presley, Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry, Fats Domino and Jerry Lee Lewis.
Finally, Bill Haley and His Saddlemen did away with their cowboy attire and decided that they needed a new name. Although there are competing theories as to how they acquired the new name, it appears that either the Program Director at WPWA , or another associate, suggested that the name Haley's Comets would be a good choice. Either way, Bill Haley and His Comets were born. The year was 1952 and this was the last time that the band changed its name and its image. And while leaving their cowboy hats behind, they also made the tough decision to abandon Country music to take on the rock and roll style, which was emerging from Rhythm and Blues.
In 1954, Bill Haley signed a contract for four records per year that Decca agreed to mail out to 2000 disc jockeys across the country. To begin this deal, Haley composed a new arrangement for "Rock Around the Clock", which the band had been performing for the last year. The song was recorded in Studio A at Decca, which was actually an auditorium-like hall that sported high-ceilings and walnut paneling that created a reverberation chamber.
05:00 - 5 - first success:
"Rock Around the Clock" became Bill's first hit and the first massive Rock and Roll hit and would go on to sell over 25 million copies. Bill Haley soon became a leader of what some have called the Rock and Roll revolution, a change in musical tastes that has lasted to this day. Extremely popular with young people, Haley actually was a very strange teen sensation, already balding and looking middle-aged when his career took off in 1955.
Bill Haley and his Comets continued to record with Decca until 1964, releasing a number of songs, including a very popular cover of Joe Turner's "Shake, Rattle and Roll", as well as such hits as "Move It On Over", "Lean Jean" and "Dim, Dim the Lights". During Bill Haley's career, he had 9 albums in the Top 40, as well as a large number of singles.
05:52 - 6 - Death:
Bill Haley died in his sleep while at home in Harlingen, Texas, in 1981.

#2 - second part, Ratanabá: 'lost city in the Amazon' makes no sense
00:00 - #2 - second part, Ratanabá: 'lost city in the Amazon' makes no sense
00:07 - 1 - What may be behind the interest in the topic:
Neves, who has no profile on social media, confesses that he had never heard of Ratanabá until the second week of June 2022.
“When they started asking me about it, I even went to research and consult other colleagues who study Amazonian archeology, but no one knew about this story”, he says.
Although there are profiles on social networks and even books published about this “lost civilization” in recent years, the topic has only gained popular interest and has become a widely discussed subject in recent days.
In Neves’ assessment, the phenomenon can be explained by a series of factors.
“It seems to me a mixture of the naivety of people, who want to believe in this type of thing, with economic interests in exploring the Amazon”, speculates the specialist, who remembers other similar legends, such as the city of Eldorado, a target of explorers throughout the centuries for supposedly being made of gold.
“And we cannot ignore racism in this context either. When you say that there were ‘advanced’ civilizations 300 million years ago, you are taking from the ancestral peoples, who are the ancestors of today’s indigenous peoples, the authorship of all those constructions”, adds.
“It’s something similar to what we see in the book ‘Were the Gods Astronauts?’, by Erich von Däniken. There, it sounds easier to explain that the pyramids of Egypt were built by extraterrestrial beings than to give credit to African peoples”, he compares.
“And all this denotes a deep racism with all non-European populations, such as indigenous peoples and Africans, as if they were not capable”, he interprets.
Finally, the archaeologist opines that the fact that legends of the type are gaining steam just now serves as a kind of test balloon.
“They act as a smokescreen at a time when we have two people missing and divert attention from the real problem of violence in the Amazon”, he adds.
02:04 - 2 - stones in the way:
“In general, the Amazon has few rocks. So, the main raw material used in the constructions of the past was earth and wood”, he contextualizes.
“To understand these periods, we need a multidisciplinary team, capable of working with objects that were left behind and withstood time, such as ceramics, organic remains, soil samples, pieces of food, seeds and bones”, he exemplifies.
To illustrate this difficulty, Neves cites as an example an article published a few weeks ago in the scientific journal nature by experts from British and German universities.
The research revealed the details of two large archaeological sites measuring 147 and 315 hectares (an area equivalent to 205 and 441 football fields, respectively), including the existence of pyramids, in the Bolivian Amazon.
“These earth structures have been known for 60 years, but it was very difficult to define whether they were natural or were built by humans,” says the archaeologist.
“It was only possible to get this answer now, because we have a technology called Lidar capable of doing this type of analysis.”
03:17 - 3 - The future depends on the past:
But, after all, given the scientific evidence available at the moment, what do scientists know about the history of the people who inhabited this region?
“We know that the Amazon was densely occupied in the past and that the people who lived there left very visible marks of the way of life they had, with geometric ditches and linear roads”, summarizes Neves.
“And we have data that show us very securely a direct relationship between the individuals who made these constructions in the past and the indigenous peoples of today.”
“It is not, therefore, a question of a lost civilization, which disappeared millions of years ago”, assures the researcher.
According to the Scientific Panel for the Amazon, a publication coordinated by the United Nations (UN) that has a chapter on the peoples who lived in the region before the arrival of Europeans, there is evidence that this tropical forest has been occupied by indigenous people for 12 years. a thousand years.
“During this long history, indigenous societies developed technologies that were highly adapted to local conditions and optimized for the expansion of the food production system,” writes the group of experts who signed the document, led by Neves.
“Amazon archeology shows how deep the indigenous history is in the region, characterized by cultural and agro-biological diversity. It is one of the few independent centers of plant domestication on the planet and one of the first centers of ceramics production in the New World” , follows the text.
“All these technologies can inspire new forms of urbanism, waste management and integrated land use systems”, conclude the authors.
For Neves, this set of evidence allows seeing the Amazon as a “biocultural heritage”, with an interaction between human action and nature over millennia.
“Therefore, to protect the Amazon, we need to strengthen local populations, such as indigenous peoples, riverside dwellers, quilombolas and caboclos, because they play a very important role in the construction and maintenance of this biocultural heritage”, concludes the archaeologist.

Google monitors Earth's surface in near real-time
00:00 - Google monitors Earth's surface in near real-time
00:05 - 1 - Monitoring:
Google's latest mapping tool takes the power of Google Maps and brings in near real-time data of the world's water, vegetation, snow and human-made development.
00:17 - 2 - Smart way:
Called Dynamic World, the tool can help with understanding the impacts of environmental disturbances, from floods, wildfires, deforestation and urban development, the company said in a blog post Thursday.
"The global land squeeze pressures us to find smarter, efficient, and more sustainable ways to use land," said Craig Hanson, vice president of foods, forests, water and the ocean at the World Resources Institute, in the blog post. "If the world is to produce what is needed from land, protect the nature that remains and restore some of what has been lost, we need trusted, near real-time monitoring of every hectare of the planet."
00:58 - 3 - Google:
Declined to comment on this story of course his life is being monitored 24/7
Current land cover maps can take time to produce and may only be updated monthly or annually, according to Google. Using AI and imagery captured by the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellite, it can analyze 5,000 images a day showcasing data as recent as two days old. It can also pull data as far back as June 2015. Google says Dynamic World can help researchers create unique and specific maps, such as analyzing crop harvests between particular dates.
The project was made in conjunction with the World Resources Institute and is powered by Google Earth Engine and AI platform. It provides global data at a 10-meter resolution. This means that not only can Dynamic World show concrete in a built-up city, but small parks nestled between buildings. Google says this type of near real-time data can give scientists and policymakers a better understanding of changes in climate and land to "make more accurate predictions and effective plans to protect our planet in the future.

Commodores Biography
00:00 - Commodores Biography
00:08 - 1 - Biography:
Renowned for the R&B hits "Just to Be Close to You," "Easy," and "Brickhouse," to name but a few, Commodores were one of the top bands during their long tenure at Motown. The group is credited with seven number one songs and a host of other Top Ten hits on the Billboard charts, and their vast catalog includes more than 50 albums.
00:30 - 2 - Start:
The members of Commodores, all of whom attended Tuskegee Institute in Alabama, came together as a result of two groups disbanding: the Mystics and the Jays. Initially formed to simply play music as a pastime and to meet girls, the lineup consisted of William King (trumpet), Thomas McClary (guitar), Ronald LaPread (bass), Walter "Clyde" Orange (drums), Lionel Richie (saxophone), and Milan Williams (keyboards). The members nearly went stir-crazy trying to pick a name for the group, but with no success. As a last resort, Orange gave King a dictionary and told him to pick a name -- that name was the Commodores. With Clyde Orange the only learned musician in the group, Commodores began spreading their music throughout their base, which included Tuskegee, Montgomery, and Birmingham, AL.
01:23 - 3 - success:
After success securing dates in their own backyard, the band ventured to New York City for a gig at Smalls Paradise. Told, in so many words by the club owner, that their sound was not happening, the self-contained band was nevertheless called back to the club to fill in for a last-minute cancellation. That night the Tuskegee alumni performed before a standing-room-only crowd -- most of which were friends and family of the band. Unaware of the planned crowd, the owner booked the band for two more weeks.
01:54 - 4 - Opening tour:
Commodores' long association with Motown began as a result of a tour opening for the Jackson 5. That opportunity occurred in 1971, when the group auditioned in New York City for an unknown yet high-profile gig. Two weeks later, they made their first appearance in the prized support slot, and didn't give it up for more than two years. Their excellent shows naturally led to a deal with Motown, and they debuted with the up-tempo instrumental dance cut "Machine Gun." Written by Milan Williams, its Top Ten outing gave the group immediate attention. It was followed by the Top 20 single "I Feel Sanctified," which led to their third single -- and first number one record -- in "Slippery When Wet." Inside of 17 weeks, the septet was rocking the airwaves with their brand of Southern funk, spiced with an animated vocal delivery courtesy of Lionel Richie and Clyde Orange.
In September of 1976, they released "Just to Be Close to You," their second number one single and a number seven pop hit. The Top Ten hit "Fancy Dancer" followed, and then came "Easy." Different from their other tunes, "Easy" was very serene and not nearly as soulful or funky as the band's other tunes. Nonetheless, it claimed the number one spot on the charts, and it paved the way for the style of ballads the group became known for. One exception to the ballad-heavy approach was "Brickhouse," the song that soon became the group's anthem. The arrangement and candid vocal lead by Clyde Orange was complemented by the evenly saturated percussive and rhythmic attack, and it cracked the Top Ten at number four. Two consecutive number one singles would follow: the dance cut "Too Hot ta Trot" and the placid number "Three Times a Lady." And then there was "Still," the last number one for the group with Richie as a member. In 1981, Richie recorded "Endless Love" with Diana Ross. The song peaked at number one for seven and nine weeks, respectively, on the Billboard R&B and pop charts. Its success was a prelude to what Richie enjoyed upon his 1982 exit from the group.
04:04 - 5 - Absence:
In the absence of Richie, the group promptly courted tenor J.D. Nicholas (formerly of Heatwave) and ended up recording their biggest hit. Penned by Clyde Orange, "Nightshift" paid tribute to the late soul singers Marvin Gaye and Jackie Wilson. For four consecutive weeks it topped the charts, and it also won the group their only Grammy.
Commodores finally left Motown in 1985. Consequently, the group signed with Polydor the same year and had another swing at the Top Ten with "Goin' to the Bank." During the '90s, the band was reduced to a core of three: Orange, King, and Nicholas. The threesome were nearly as active as they'd ever been, performing around the world and managing their own label, Commodore Records.

#1 - first part, Ratanabá: 'lost city in the Amazon' doesn't make sense
00:00 -#1 - first part, Ratanabá: 'lost city in the Amazon' doesn't make sense
00:10 - 1 - latest news:
In recent days, the alleged discovery of Ratanabá, a secret civilization in the heart of the Amazon, has spread with great speed through social networks.
00:21 - 2 - It will be a Delirium:
Some conspiracy theories went further and said the discovery would help explain “the true interest of dozens of powerful men in the Amazon” and even the disappearance of English journalist Dom Phillips and Brazilian indigenist Bruno Pereira.
This information, however, does not make any sense. “All this is a delusion”, evaluates archaeologist Eduardo Goés Neves, professor at the Center for Amerindian Studies at the University of São Paulo (USP) and coordinator of the Laboratory of Archeology of the Tropics at the Museum of Archeology and Ethnology at the same institution.
00:59 - 3 - Just rumors:
For over 30 years, the specialist has been part of a network of researchers working to reveal the past of the Amazon and the peoples who lived (and still live) there.
In his opinion, the emergence of stories such as that of Ratanabá, which has no basis in recent scientific publications, does a “disservice to archaeology”.
“For over 20 years, archaeologists working in the region have argued that there were cities in the Amazon, but this was seen as crazy,” he says.
“Over time, the perspective has changed and the academic community has begun to accept that, yes, there is evidence of large-scale sites, roads and landfills built a long time ago”, continues the expert, who reinforces that these findings do not have nothing to do with ancient civilizations or hidden treasures.
“Now, all our efforts can almost go back to square one with the story of Ratanabá and the propagation of information in the most bizarre ways possible”, he adds.
Next, check out why the main arguments used to talk about the “lost city in the Amazon” don’t make sense — and what scientific evidence reveals about human occupation in the world’s largest rainforest.
02:10 - 4 - An account that doesn’t close:
The first detail that draws attention in the posts about Ratanabá are the dates used. In some texts, it is written that civilization would have existed there 350, 450 or even 600 million years ago.
“This doesn’t make any sense from the point of view of the geological and biological history of our planet”, replies Neves.
“To give you an idea, not even dinosaurs existed 350 million years ago. Our oldest ancestors lived about 6 million years ago. But our species itself, the Homo sapiens sapiensappeared 350 thousand years ago in Africa”, he estimates.
That is: there is a miscalculation of at least 349 million years in this history.
“If someone said that cities existed in the Amazon 3,500 years ago, I would even think that this was a question to try to understand better and research. Now, a civilization 350 million years ago? There is no possibility of that”, points out the archaeologist.
03:18 - 5 - Metropolises of the past, small towns of today:
The second completely wrong information about Ratanabá has to do with the supposed size of the city. Some posts say that it would be bigger than Greater São Paulo.
Again, this is at odds with the scientific evidence. “We still don’t have an exact estimate of how many people lived in these Amazonian cities, but they certainly weren’t the size of São Paulo at all,” says Neves.
“To give you an idea, in the 16th century, the most populous cities in the world were probably Istanbul, in Turkey, and Tenochtitlán, in Mexico. And they had 50,000, at most 200,000 inhabitants”, calculates the USP professor.
Currently, Greater São Paulo is home to about 22 million inhabitants.
Neves calculates that, before the arrival of Europeans in the Americas, there were about 10 million indigenous people in the entire Amazon. “And that number dropped a lot from the 17th century onwards due to wars and epidemics”, he teaches.
04:23 - 6 - Straight lines in the middle of the jungle:
The third argument that gives muscle to the rumors about Ratanabá has to do with tunnels found in the Amazon region or with aerial images, which show straight lines and perfect squares, visible between the treetops.
These tunnels, social media posts argue, would serve as a secret passageway and connect different parts of South America.
Straight lines, in turn, do not exist in nature and would be the result of human work, guarantee the rumors.
Neves explains that there really are tunnels in the Amazon. “The images released probably come from the region of Forte Príncipe da Beira, in Rondônia, which was a Portuguese colonial post.”
“These constructions are related to the border disputes between Spain and Portugal in the vicinity of the Guaporé River throughout the 18th century”, he adds.
But what about straight lines? From the few images available, Neves believes they are from a region close to the border between the states of Mato Grosso, Pará and Amazonas.
“These formations have been known for a long time and they really look like perpendicular lines, which is an unusual thing,” he says.
“The main suspicions are that it is a natural formation of limestone or some type of rock that follows this pattern”, says the archaeologist.
“It is unlikely that it was created by humans. But, if it really was made by local people, these constructions must not be more than 2,500 years old”, he adds.
to be continued....

Whitney Houston
00:00 - Whitney Houston
00:04 - 1 - Who was Whitney Houston:
Whitney Houston released her debut album at age 22 and scored three No. 1 singles. Whitney (1987) delivered four more No. 1s and earned Houston a Grammy, with later albums including I'm Your Baby Tonight (1990) and My Love Is Your Love (1998) as well as soundtracks to The Bodyguard (1992) and Waiting to Exhale (1995). With her marriage to singer Bobby Brown in 1992 and ensuing drug use, Houston's career got off track. She eventually made a comeback with 2009's I Look to You and also co-starred in the musical film Sparkle. Houston died from accidental drowning in a hotel on February 11, 2012.
00:52 - 2 - First years:
Born on August 9, 1963, in Newark, New Jersey, Houston almost seemed destined from birth to become a singer. Her mother and cousin were both legendary figures in American gospel, soul and pop music. Cissy Houston was the choir minister at New Hope Baptist Church, and it was there that a young Houston got her start. Even as a child, Houston was able to wow audiences; she later told Diane Sawyer that a rapturous response from the congregation at New Hope had a powerful effect upon her: "I think I knew then that [my singing ability] was an infectious thing that God had given me."
By the time she turned 15, Houston was performing often with her mother and trying to get a record deal of her own. Around the same time, she was discovered by a photographer who was awed by her natural beauty. She soon became an extremely sought-after teen model, one of the first African American women to appear on the cover of Seventeen magazine. But music remained her true love.
01:54 - 3 - How it was discovered:
When she was 19, Houston was discovered in a nightclub by Arista Records' Clive Davis, who signed her immediately and took the helm of her career as she navigated from gospel to pop stardom. In 1983, Houston made her debut on national television, appearing on The Merv Griffin Show to sing "Home" from the musical The Wiz. She and Davis spent the next two years working on her debut album, finding the best producers and songwriters available to showcase her amazing vocal talent.
02:26 - 4 - Success:
In 1985, the artist released her debut album, Whitney Houston, and almost immediately became a smash pop sensation. Over the next year, her hit singles "Saving All My Love for You" and "How Will I Know" helped the album reach the top of the charts, where it stayed for 14 non-consecutive weeks. Houston won a Grammy in 1986 for "Saving All My Love for You"; the award was presented to the singer by her cousin Dionne Warwick.
Houston followed the monumental success of her first album with a second release, Whitney, in 1987. That record, too, went platinum many times over and won a Grammy for the single "I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me)," with a successful world tour following. During this time, the singer also appeared at a concert for Nelson Mandela's birthday and founded the Whitney Houston Foundation for Children, a nonprofit organization that funds projects to help needy children over the world.
By 1992, Houston was on top of the world, but her life was about to get very complicated very quickly. That year she married the R&B singer Bobby Brown, formerly of New Edition, after a three-year engagement. At first, the marriage was passionate and loving, but things turned sour as the decade progressed. Both Brown and Houston battled substance abuse and increasingly erratic behavior, with Houston later alluding to emotional abuse from Brown and domestic violence.
03:55 - 5 - Difficult private life:
In spite of these growing personal troubles, Houston continued to progress in her career, crossing over successfully into acting in 1992 by starring opposite Kevin Costner in the wildly popular movie The Bodyguard. With this project, she set a trend for her films to follow: For each movie she also released hit singles, creating sensational record sales for the soundtracks. Her smash single from The Bodyguard, a cover of Dolly Parton's "I Will Always Love You" from 1974, proved to be Houston's biggest hit ever, spending a record-breaking 14 weeks atop the U.S. charts. The soundtrack album went on to win Houston three Grammys, including Album of the Year and Record of the Year. Later in the 1990s, Houston also starred in Waiting to Exhale and The Preacher's Wife, both accompanied by hit soundtracks as well.
In 1998, Houston released My Love Is Your Love, her first non-soundtrack studio album in many years, and it earned her another Grammy for the single "It's Not Right But It's Okay," The album was not as successful as her previous full-length releases, though her collaboration with Mariah Carey in the animated film The Prince of Egypt produced a hit single, "When You Believe," which won an Academy AwardIn the late 1990s and early 2000s, Houston's increasingly rocky marriage, struggles with drugs and health problems threatened to derail her career. Several concert cancellations and a notorious TV interview with Sawyer in 2002, in which Houston appeared far too thin and in poor health, led many to speculate that she was on the verge of a breakdown.
In 2004, when production began on the TV reality series Being Bobby Brown, Houston received substantial airtime. The show aired during the worst years of the couple's crumbling marriage; drug use, lifestyle excess and bad behavior were all caught on tape and Houston's reputation sunk to new lows. Houston tried to ignore the controversy, charging ahead with her music by releasing Just Whitney… to combat her detractors, but it did not match the success of her earlier works. In spite of her troubled relationship, Houston was still celebrated as a singer, being named the most-awarded female artist of all time by Guinness World Records in 2006.
Over the next few years, Houston attempted to repair her marriage and to break her drug habit, but after several relapses, Cissy had to step in. As Houston explained to Oprah Winfrey in 2009: "[My mother] walks in with the sheriff and she says: 'I have a court injunction here. You do it my way or we're not going to do this at all. You're going to go on TV, and you're going to retire. And say you're going to give this up because it's not worth it.'" Houston took a break from her career, divorced Brown in 2007 and won sole custody of Bobbi Kristina.
After almost a decade of struggling with her personal life, Houston seemed to be pulling herself together. She released a new album, I Look To You, in 2009. "The songs themselves will speak to you and you'll understand where I am and some of the changes I've gone through for the better," Houston told Entertainment Tonight. The recording received a warm welcome from music fans, making it to the top of album charts. Her live shows, however, garnered mixed reviews, with some complaining about the quality of her voice.
07:21 - 6 - Death:
In early 2012, Houston was rumored to be experiencing financial trouble, but she denied this claim. Indeed, the artist seemed poised for a career upswing: Houston worked on the musical film Sparkle with Jordin Sparks, a remake of the 1976 movie about an all-girl musical group similar to The Supremes, and also reportedly had been approached to join the singing competition series The X Factor as a judge. Unfortunately, Houston did not live long enough to see the latest comeback reach fruition.
Houston died at the age of 48 on February 11, 2012, in Los Angeles at a Beverly Hilton hotel where a Grammy party was being held by Davis. Houston had been seen out in the days before her death, including at one of the pre-Grammy parties. According to a report released by the Los Angeles County coroner's office on March 22, 2012, the official cause of her death was an accidental drowning. The effects of heart disease and cocaine found in her system were contributing factors as well.

Mastodon and its extinction
00:00 - Mastodon and its extinction
00:05 - 1 - What were they:
Mastodons are relatives of elephants belonging to the genus Mammut that inhabited North and Central America before they went extinct about 10,000 to 11,000 years ago. Typical adults stood between 8 and 10 feet (2.5-3 m) tall at the shoulder and weighed around 8,000 to 12,000 pounds (3,600-5,400 kg). The largest specimen found was 10.7 feet (3.3 m) tall and weighed 24,000 pounds (11,000 kg). They lived in herds, mainly feeding on leaves and branches, a lot like modern elephants.
Although some evidence suggests climate change may have contributed to their extinction, it is generally believed that human hunting by Paleo-Indians was the main factor in their disappearance.
Around 13,200 years ago, a roving male mastodon died in a bloody mating-season battle with a rival in what today is northeast Indiana, nearly 100 miles (160 km) from his home territory, according to the first study to document the annual migration of an individual animal from an extinct species.
The 8-ton (7,200 kg) adult, known as the Buesching mastodon, was killed when an opponent punctured the right side of his skull with a tusk tip, a mortal wound that was revealed to researchers when the animal’s remains were recovered from a peat farm near Fort Wayne in 1998.
01:35 - 2 - Evidence:
Northeast Indiana was likely a preferred summer mating ground for this solitary rambler, who made the trek annually during the last three years of his life, venturing north from his cold-season home, according to a paper published today (June 13, 2022) in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
The study also shows that the Buesching bull may have spent time exploring central and southern Michigan, which seems fitting for a creature whose full-size fiberglass-cast skeleton is on display at the University of Michigan Museum of Natural History in Ann Arbor.
02:10 - 3 - Your travels:
“The result that is unique to this study is that for the first time, we’ve been able to document the annual overland migration of an individual from an extinct species,” said University of Cincinnati paleoecologist Joshua Miller, the study’s first author.
“Using new modeling techniques and a powerful geochemical toolkit, we’ve been able to show that large male mastodons like Buesching migrated every year to the mating grounds.”
02:37 - 4 - The excavations
U-M paleontologist and study co-leader Daniel Fisher participated in the Buesching mastodon excavation 24 years ago. He later used a bandsaw to cut a thin, lengthwise slab from the center of the animal’s banana-shaped, 9.5-foot right tusk, which is longer and more completely preserved than the left.
That slab was used for the new isotopic and life-history analyses, which enabled scientists to reconstruct changing patterns of landscape use during two key periods: adolescence and the final years of adulthood. The Buesching mastodon died in a battle over access to mates at age 34, according to the researchers.
“You’ve got a whole life spread out before you in that tusk,” said Fisher, who has studied mastodons and mammoths for more than 40 years and helped excavate several dozen of the extinct elephant relatives.
“The growth and development of the animal, as well as its history of changing land use and changing behavior—all of that history is captured and recorded in the structure and composition of the tusk,” said Fisher, a professor of earth and environmental sciences, a professor of ecology and evolutionary biology, and a curator at the U-M Museum of Paleontology.
03:51 - 5 - Areas covered:
The team’s analyses revealed that the Buesching mastodon’s original home range was likely in central Indiana. Like modern-day elephants, the young male stayed close to home until he separated from the female-led herd as an adolescent.
As a lone adult, Buesching traveled farther and more frequently, often covering nearly 20 miles per month, according to the researchers. Also, his landscape use varied with the seasons, including a dramatic northward expansion into a summer-only region that included parts of northeastern Indiana—the presumed mating grounds.
Under harsh Pleistocene climates, migration and other forms of seasonally patterned landscape use were likely critical for the reproductive success of mastodons and other large mammals. However, little is known about how their geographic ranges and mobility fluctuated seasonally or changed with sexual maturity, according to the new study.
But techniques to analyze the ratios of various forms, or isotopes, of the elements strontium and oxygen in ancient tusks are helping scientists unlock some of those secrets.

The Four Tops
00:00 - Biography
The Four Tops
00:06 - 1 - Start:
The Four Tops' story is one of togetherness and success. These Motown legends teamed up in high school, spent over four decades together without a personnel change, and in between became a top-tier act on a label with no shortage of talent, ranking with the Temptations and the Supremes as its most consistent hitmakers. Where many other R&B vocal groups spotlighted a tenor, the Four Tops were fronted by deep-voiced Levi Stubbs -- who had all the grit of a gospel-trained soul belter -- yet the Tops' creamy harmonies, filled out by Duke Fakir, Obie Benson, and Lawrence Payton, were smooth enough for Motown's pop-soul productions. From 1964-1967, the group recorded some of the greatest and most popular Holland-Dozier-Holland compositions, including "Reach Out, I'll Be There," "I Can't Help Myself (Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch)," "Standing in the Shadows of Love," "Bernadette," and "Baby I Need Your Loving." When Motown moved to Los Angeles in the early '70s, the Tops remained in Detroit and enjoyed a renaissance with the ABC-Dunhill imprint, highlighted in 1973 by "Ain't No Woman (Like the One I've Got)," among several additional Top Ten R&B hits. Through the '80s, they continued to perform and tour, scored the occasional comeback hit, and were briefly reunited with Motown. Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees in 1990, the group released their last studio recording in 1995, remained intact until Payton's death two years later, and continued through the deaths of Benson and Stubbs the following decade. Fakir continues to lead the Four Tops as a beloved live act.
The Four Tops began life in 1953 (some accounts say 1954), when all of the members were attending Detroit-area high schools. Levi Stubbs and Abdul "Duke" Fakir went to Pershing, and met Northern students Renaldo "Obie" Benson and Lawrence Payton at a friend's birthday party, where the quartet members first sang together. Sensing an immediate chemistry, they began rehearsing together and dubbed themselves the Four Aims. Payton's cousin Roquel Davis, a budding songwriter who sometimes sang with the group during its early days, helped them get an audition with Chess Records in 1956. Although Chess was more interested in Davis, who went on to become Berry Gordy's songwriting partner, they also signed the Four Aims, who became the Four Tops to avoid confusion with the Ames Brothers. The Four Tops' lone Chess single, "Kiss Me Baby," was followed by similarly brief stints at Red Top and Riverside. They signed with Columbia in 1960 and were steered in a more upscale supper-club direction, singing jazz and pop standards, and during this period toured with Billy Eckstine.
02:52 - 2 - success:
In 1963, the Four Tops signed with longtime friend Berry Gordy's new label, specifically the jazz-oriented Workshop subsidiary. They completed a debut LP, to be called Breaking Through, but Gordy scrapped it and switched their style back to R&B, placing them on Motown with the Holland-Dozier-Holland songwriting team. After a full decade in existence, the Four Tops finally notched their first hit in 1964 with "Baby I Need Your Loving," which just missed the pop Top Ten. Early 1965 brought the follow-up ballad hit "Ask the Lonely," and from then on there was no stopping them. "I Can't Help Myself (Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch)" went all the way to number one that spring, and the follow-up "It's the Same Old Song" reached the Top Five. The hits continued into 1966, with "Something About You" "Shake Me, Wake Me (When It's Over)," and "Loving You Is Sweeter Than Ever" all coming in succession. The fall of 1966 brought the group's masterpiece in the form of the virtual soul symphony "Reach Out, I'll Be There"; not only did it become their second number one pop hit, it also wound up ranking as the creative peak of the group's career and one of Motown's finest singles ever. During this period, the Tops also earned a reputation as one of Motown's best live acts, having previously honed their performances for years before hitting the big time.
The Four Tops kicked off 1967 with the dramatic Top Ten smash "Standing in the Shadows of Love," which was followed by the Top Five "Bernadette." "7-Rooms of Gloom" and "You Keep Running Away" reached the Top 20, but toward the end of the year, Holland-Dozier-Holland left Motown over a financial dispute. The Tops' next two hits, 1968's "Walk Away Renee" and "If I Were a Carpenter," were both covers of well-known recent songs (by the Left Banke and Tim Hardin, respectively) and made the Top 20. They enjoyed a resurgence in 1970 under producer Frank Wilson, who helmed a hit cover of the Tommy Edwards pop standard "It's All in the Game" and a ballad co-written by Smokey Robinson, "Still Water (Love)." The Tops also recorded with the post-Diana Ross Supremes, scoring a duet hit with a cover of "River Deep, Mountain High" in 1971.
05:11 - 3 - change of seal:
When Motown moved its headquarters to Los Angeles in 1972, the Four Tops parted ways with the company, choosing to remain in their hometown of Detroit. They signed with ABC-Dunhill and were teamed with producers/songwriters Dennis Lambert and Brian Potter, who did their best to re-create the group's trademark Motown sound. The immediate result was "Keeper of the Castle," the Four Tops' first Top Ten hit in several years. They followed it in early 1973 with "Ain't No Woman (Like the One I've Got)," a gold-selling smash that proved to be their final Top Five pop hit. That year they also recorded the theme song to the film Shaft in Africa, "Are You Man Enough." Several more R&B chart hits followed over the next few years, with the last being 1976's "Catfish"; after a final ABC album in 1978, the Tops resurfaced on Casablanca in 1981. The first single for their new label, "When She Was My Girl," went all the way to number one on the R&B chart, just missing the pop Top Ten.
06:17 - 4 - musical direction confusion:
The Four Tops rejoined Motown in 1983, the year of the company's 25th anniversary, and toured extensively with the Temptations. They also recorded a couple albums of new material, and wound up leaving Motown amid confusion over musical direction. Meanwhile, Stubbs provided the voice for Audrey the man-eating plant in the film version of Little Shop of Horrors. The Four Tops next caught on with Arista, where in 1988 they scored their last Top 40 pop hit, the aptly titled "Indestructible." The Four Tops were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1990. Following the 1995 release of their final studio album -- a Christmas recording -- they've stuck to performing and touring. In 1997, Lawrence Payton passed away due to liver cancer, ending the astonishing longevity of the original lineup. Theo Peoples, who had recently spent six years with the Temptations, was eventually added to the lineup.
Early the next decade, a stroke sidelined Stubbs and prompted the addition of Ronnie McNeir, who had been group's musical director. Benson died of lung cancer in 2005 and was replaced by Lawrence Payton, Jr. Stubbs, whose last performance was at the Four Tops' 50th anniversary concert the previous year, died in his sleep in 2008. Three years later, Peoples left the group, enabling the entry of Harold "Spike" Bonhart. All the while, and into the 2020s, Fakir has continued to lead the Four Tops on-stage

Moon dust to make bricks to build moon habitats
00:00 - Moon dust to make bricks to build moon habitats
00:08 - 1 - Future outposts:
ESA researchers are looking at lunar dust as a raw material for making bricks to build habitats for future manned outposts on the Moon. Using "simulants" that mimic the properties of actual Moon dust, the goal is to determine if the gray, fine, rough-edged dust that covers the lunar surface is suitable for making habitats, roads, launch pads and other installations.
If the spacefaring nations manage to one day send astronauts back to Moon, the general consensus is that, if the explorers are going to do more than pay brief visits, they're going to have to build proper outposts to provide work and living spaces that protect the crews from deadly cosmic radiation.
00:50 - 2 - Feasibility study:
But with the present cost of getting to the Moon making a bottle of water cost as much as a 1928 Krug Champagne going for US$20,000, shipping building materials from Earth would be prohibitively expensive. To overcome this bottleneck, engineers are looking at Moon dust as a local substitute that can be burned, crushed, or compressed into solid blocks.
01:14 - 3 - Scientists:
According to ESA, the Earth and Moon share a very similar geological history, with Moon dust being the result of micrometeorite impacts and cosmic radiation on the lunar lava flows. Since the area around Cologne, Germany produced similar lava flows about 45 million years ago, scientists at the European Astronaut Centre (EAC) examined samples of the German volcanic powder and found that it made a good base material to create a simulated lunar dust called EAC-1.
The tricky bit is that producing the dust requires more than just grinding it up to the right grade. Lunar dust is also very sharp edged to the point of being a potential health hazard and it's so dry that it carries an electrostatic charge due to the constant radiation bombardment.
The concern is that this charge might alter the properties of the dust and its suitability as a building material. So far, attempting to recreate properties of the lunar dust under radiation has activated the particles, but has destroyed other properties.
"This gives us one more reason to go back to the Moon," says Erin Tranfield, a member of ESA's lunar dust topical team. "We need pristine samples from the surface exposed to the radiation environment."

The Trammps
00:00 - The Trammps
00:03 - 1 - Excluded:
I'm not sure why the Trammps have been ignored for so long by the American record industry. Perhaps the rights were too expensive or difficult to secure. Or they were simply forgotten during repeated turnovers at record companies staffed by younger executives born in later decades than the 1970s. At any rate, as a disco fan and collector since 1973, I was overjoyed to hear this music again with superb mastering. [Photo above of the Trammps]
00:34 - 2 - Why Trammps:
The Trammps were much more than their 1976 tourist-trap dance hit, Disco Inferno (1976). The Philadelphia group had its roots in the 1960s as the Volcanos and then the Moods. The story behind their name has several versions. In one, evening rehearsals on neighborhood streets in Philadelphia led passers-by to chide them as tramps. A second "m" was added and they became the Trammps. But founder and drummer Earl Young told Waring, the box's liner notes writer, that he wanted a silly name—like Bummie and the Bums—record buyers would remember. Tramps worked, but he added the extra "m" to class up the name. Either way, the group's first album, Tammps, was released in early 1975 on Golden Fleece, a boutique label distributed by the songwriting and producing team Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff.
The album made it onto on both Billboard's R&B and pop charts, largely because of the underground album dance hit, Where Do We Go From Here, released in 1974. Young, a Philadelphia session drummer in the early 1970s, recorded the group at Philadelphia's famed Sigma Sound, where the city's leading studio musicians and producers were emerging. Many were members of MFSB, Sigma's sizable and talented studio band. At Sigma, producer-arranger-songwriter Ronnie Baker and guitarist-arranger-songwriter Norman Harris joined Young on Trammps recording sessions and songwriting. Baker-Harris-Young would go on to write major soul and disco hits and had played on several significant pre-Philadelphia International albums, including the Spinners' Spinners (1973) and early '70s albums by Blue Magic. When I interviewed Young for my "Anatomy of a Song" column for the WSJ on the Spinners' I'll Be Around (1972), we talked about the start of the Philly dance beat he created on the Spinners' hit.
02:33 - 3 - success:
As soul dance music picked up in the early 1970s with the emergence of discos, FM radio and supermarket-sized record stores, the Trammps had increased success. Their second 1975 album, The Legendary Zing Album, on Buddah charted, but it was their next album, Where the Happy People Go in 1976 that became a club classic and put the group on the map. All of the album's songs were popular at discos, including Soul Searchin' Time, the title track, Can We Come Together, Disco Party, Ninety-Nine and a Half, Hooked for Life and Love Is a Funky Thing.
The Atlantic album reached #13 on Billboard's R&B album chart and #50 on the Billboard 200. The single of That's Where the Happy People Go topped out at #12 on the Hot Soul Singles chart, #27 on the Billboard Hot 100, and No. 1 on the Hot Dance Club Play chart, and Disco Party peaked at #1 on Billboard's Hot Dance Club Play chart. I wore out two copies of the album at college in Boston, where disco emerged early on one FM station for several hours on Sunday nights.
03:43 - 4 - A popularity:
The Trammps' next album, Disco Inferno (1976), was so popular at discos that the title track landed in the film Saturday Night Fever and on the album soundtrack. The followup, The Trammps III (1977), also was a significant seller. By the late 1970s, the band's success started to flag as the disco phenomenon took on a European electronic sheen, grew repetitive and waned. [Photo above of the Trammps, courtesy of Wikipedia]
The Trammps' sound was unique and driven by muscular dance rhythms by Earl Young, spectacular arrangements by Ronnie Baker and Norm Harris, and by the big emotional vocal delivery of Jimmy Ellis. His expressive lead singing style was akin to the Four Tops' Levi Stubbs.
Burn Baby Burn: The Trammps Albums 1975-1980 is welcome news for anyone who loved early disco and is interested in the emergence of the Philadelphia sound. Hopefully someone at Robinsongs will turn to the Archie Bell catalog next. Do the Choo Choo!

Viking sword pieces found
00:00 - Viking sword pieces found
00:05 - 1 - Discovery:
Pieces of an ornamental Viking sword have been reunited after 1,200 years apart.
In 2021, a small piece of the sword was discovered by metal detectorists at Stavanger on Norway’s west coast.
In a recent survey at the site, detectorists unearthed the remainder of the word that has intricate carvings of gold and silver details and a cross-guard shaped like an animal.
00:30 - 2 - Most beautiful:
Although the blade is yet to be discovered, archaeologists have determined that the sword was a Peterson Type D-sword, one of the richest ornamented and heaviest sword types from the Viking age.
Copies of this sword type have been found in both Eastern and Western Europe, with only 20 examples having previously been discovered in Norway. It is suggested that the Stavanger sword would have belonged to someone who wanted to demonstrate their high social status.
00:58 - 3 - Shape of the sword:
Zanette Glørstad from the Arkeologisk Museum said: “The sword includes artistic elements of an animal style from the Late Iron Age, as well as geometric figures of silver with so-called niello technique (a metal mixture added as black stripes in the silver). The lower helmet is decorated in the same way as the grip, and at each end the helmet is shaped like an animal head. The decoration may indicate that the sword was originally made in the Frankish Empire or England, the closest parallel we know is a sword from the Isle of Eigg in Scotland which was found in a tomb from the 9th century AD.”
Glørstad added: “The complicated decoration and the special hilt design makes this a completely unique discovery, which will be of great interest to specialists from other parts of Europe. We are now very much looking forward to seeing the sword completely preserved and will then contact researchers abroad to bring more clarity to the sword’s origins and parallels.”

Shipwrecks lost in the ocean are changing life under the sea
00:00 - Shipwrecks lost in the ocean are changing life under the sea
00:08 - 1 - Quantity:
There are estimated to be around three million shipwrecks sitting on sea beds around the world, many of them made from wood – and these submerged wooden islands are proving a vibrant breeding ground for deep sea microbes, a new study reveals.
00:23 - 2 - Impact caused:
Scientists say these human-made structures are having an important impact on the delicate ecosystems down at the bottom of the oceans, to an extent that hasn't really been appreciated before.
Deep sea microbes living on submerged shipwrecks are positioned at the bottom of the underwater food chain, so changes to them could have a knock-on effect on other marine life – and, ultimately, everything living on the land as well.
"Microbial communities are important to be aware of and understand because they provide early and clear evidence of how human activities change life in the ocean," says molecular microbial ecologist Leila Hamdan from the University of Southern Mississippi.
Hamdan and fellow researchers picked two 19th century shipwreck sites in the Gulf Mexico for their study. They placed pine and oak blocks around the sites, from right next to the shipwrecks to up to 200 meters (656 feet) away, and left the wood there for four months.
The wooden blocks were then recovered and measured for bacteria, archaea, and fungi. Microbial diversity varied depending on proximity to the wreck sites, peaking around 125 meters (410 feet) away. The type of wood made a difference as well, with oak more favorable to microbial biodiversity than pine
01:43 - 3 - Microbial richness:
Natural hard habitats – trees that have fallen into rivers and the oceans – are already well known for influencing the biodiversity of the water they tumble into. What this study shows is that shipwrecks abandoned by humans affect microbial life under the sea too.
"These biofilms are ultimately what enable hard habitats to transform into islands of biodiversity," says Hamdan.
Overall, across the two sites, the presence of the shipwrecks increased microbial richness in the surrounding water, and altered the composition and dispersal patterns of the biofilms holding microbes, the researchers found.
As expected, additional factors influencing microbial life were water depth and the closeness to other nutrient sources, such as the Mississippi River delta.
While further research is needed to investigate the phenomenon at a broader range of sites, these initial findings are enough to show that shipwrecks are an important consideration in underwater biodiversity.
The team behind this latest study suggests that other human-made structures, such as oil rigs, could be having a similar impact on deep sea microbiomes, and again further research is justified in attempting to find out specifics.
"While we are aware human impacts on the seabed are increasing through the multiple economic uses, scientific discovery is not keeping pace with how this shapes the biology and chemistry of natural under sea landscapes," says Hamdan.
"We hope this work will begin a dialogue that leads to research on how built habitats are already changing the deep sea."

Donna Summer
00:00 - Donna Summer
Singer-songwriter Donna Summer, known as the "Queen of Disco," was born on December 31, 1948, in Boston, Massachusetts. She died on May 17, 2012 at age 63, after a years-long battle with cancer.
00:21 - 2 - Early Life:
Donna Summer was born Donna Adrian Gaines on December 31, 1948, in Boston, Massachusetts. Her father, Andrew Gaines, was a butcher and her mother, Mary Gaines, was a schoolteacher. From nearly the moment she learned how to talk, Donna sang ceaselessly. "From the time she was little, that's all she really did," her mother recalled. "She literally lived to sing ... She used to go through the house singing, singing. She sang for breakfast and for lunch and for supper."
Summer's debut performance came one Sunday when she was 10 years old, when a singer scheduled to perform at her church did not show up. The priest, who knew from her parents Summer's fondness for singing, invited her to perform instead—expecting, at the least, an amusing spectacle. But to everyone's surprise, the voice that bellowed out of Donna Summer's tiny body that Sunday morning was overwhelmingly powerful and beautiful.
"You couldn't see her if you were beyond the third row," her father remembered. "But you could hear her." Summer recalled, "I started crying, everybody else started crying. It was quite an amazing moment in my life & and at some point after I heard my voice come out I felt like God said to me, 'Donna, you're going to be very, very famous.' And I just knew from that day on I was going to be famous."
01:52 - 3 - Starred:
Summer attended Jeremiah E. Burke High School in Boston, where she starred in the school musicals and was very popular. She was also something of a troublemaker as a teenager, sneaking out to parties to circumvent her parents' strictly enforced curfew. In 1967, at the age of 18, only weeks before her high school graduation, Summer auditioned for and was cast in a production of Hair: The American Tribal Love-Rock Musical scheduled to run in Munich, Germany. Overcoming her father's initial objections, she accepted the part and flew to Germany with her parents' reluctant approval. Summer learned to speak fluent German within a few months, and after Hair finished its run, she decided to remain in Munich, where she appeared in several other musicals and worked in a recording studio singing backup vocals and recording demo tapes.
In 1974, still in Munich, Summer recorded her first solo album, Lady of the Night, which scored a major European hit with the single "The Hostage" but failed to crack the American market.
In 1975, Summer co-wrote and recorded a demo version of a seductive disco track called "Love to Love You Baby," initially intending it for another artist. Producers liked Summer's demo version so much that they decided to make it her song instead. The final version released in the United States, an unprecedented 17 minutes long, featured Summer's tantalizingly soft vocals and sensual moaning—sounds so suggestive, in fact, that many radio stations initially refused to play the song. Nevertheless, the path-breaking disco track became an overnight sensation, skyrocketing to No. 2 on the U.S. singles chart and serving as the titular track of her second album. Building on the success of "Love to Love You Baby," Summer released two albums in 1976: A Love Trilogy and Four Seasons of Love, both of which were enormous successes. In 1977, Summer released two more hit albums, I Remember Yesterday and Once Upon a Time, and in 1978 her single "Last Dance" from the soundtrack of Thank God It's Friday won the Academy Award for Best Original Song.
04:11 - 4 - 1 solo album:
Summer's 1978 live album, entitled Live and More, became her first to reach No. 1 on the Billboard album charts and likewise featured her first No. 1 single in "MacArthur Park." A year later, she achieved the biggest commercial success of her career with the album Bad Girls, which instantly spawned two No. 1 singles, "Bad Girls" and "Hot Stuff," making Summer the first female artist to score three No. 1 songs in a single calendar year. As the 1970s gave way to the 1980s, Summer briefly abandoned disco to release two R&B albums: The Wanderer (1980) and Donna Summer (1982). Returning to dance music in 1983, she scored her biggest hit of the decade with "She Works Hard for the Money." The title track, based on Summer's feelings upon encountering a sleeping bathroom attendant at a restaurant, has become something of a feminist anthem.
By the late 1980s, Summer's popularity began to wane and she achieved only one more Top 10 hit during the decade, 1989's "This Time I Know It's For Real" off the album Another Place in Time.
Summer released only two albums during the 1990s, Mistaken Identity (1991) and Christmas Songs (1994), neither of which made much of an impact. During these years, the multi-talented Summer also branched out into painting, holding several exhibitions per year and enjoying both critical acclaim and commercial success. She also became embroiled in controversy during the early 1990s, when New York magazine reported that Summer had made homophobic remarks and called the AIDS epidemic punishment for the sins of homosexuals. Summer vociferously denied making any such comments and sued the magazine for libel. The case was settled out of court. Summer released her first album in 14 years, Crayons, in 2008 to positive reviews and decent sales.
Summer married singer-songwriter Bruce Sudano in 1980, and they had two children.
06:26 - 5 - Death
Summer died on May 17, 2012 at age 63, after a years-long battle with cancer.
Known as the "Queen of Disco," Summer will be remembered as perhaps the greatest singer in disco history. But she was so much more: a vocalist of incredible range and power whose voice was equally at home in German-language show tunes, racy disco dance tracks and powerful gospel ballads.
Not long before her death, Summer said that her foremost life aspiration was not related her singing. "What I aspire to in my life, truly, is to be loving," she said. "And I don't always achieve that, but that's my aspiration."

Treasure discovered in Saqqara
00:00 - Treasure discovered in Saqqara
00:05 - 1 - Discovery:
Egypt never ceases to amaze people with its rich and wonderful ancient history. Now, the country has announced on May 31st, a new discovery of a trove of ancient artifacts dating back 2,500 years. According to the country’s antiquities authorities, those historic relics were recently discovered at the famed necropolis of Saqqara near Cairo. They are still in good condition. Some of them remained colorful. This archaeological mission has been working in this area since 2018 and has so far made several discoveries, including collections of artifacts, coffins, and human and animal mummies from ancient Egypt.
The artifacts were showcased at a makeshift exhibit at the feet of the Step Pyramid of Djoser, 15 miles southwest of the Egyptian capital. Constructed at Saqqara about 4,700 years ago, the Step Pyramid of Djoser was the first pyramid the Egyptians built.
01:04 - 2 - Group Interview:
Mostafa Waziri, head of the Supreme Council of Antiquities, said in a press conference that the find unearthed a collection of 250 wooden painted coffins and the biggest ever bronze cachette containing a collection of 150 bronze statues of ancient Egyptian deities such as Anubis, Osiris, Nefertem and Hathor. Archaeologists have also found 40 wooden coffins with mummies sealed inside and bronze vessels used in rituals of Isis, the goddess of fertility in ancient Egyptian mythology, all from the Late Period, about 500 B.C. A headless bronze statue of Imhotep, the chief architect of Pharaoh Djoser who ruled ancient Egypt between 2630 B.C. and 2611 B.C was also displayed.

He was born in Sabine Pass, Texas, the oldest son of Jiles Perry, Sr. and Elise (Stalsby) Richardson. His father was an oil field worker and driller. He had two younger brothers, Cecil and James. Within a short time the family moved to Beaumont, Texas. He graduated from Beaumont High School in 1947 and was a member of the ‘Royal Purple’ football team, wearing number 85 as a defensive lineman.
Richardson later studied law at Lamar College, and was a member of the band and chorus. During this time he worked part time at KTRM Radio. On April 18, 1952, Richardson married Adrianne Joy Fryou from Montegut, Louisiana, and by 1955 he had joined the United States Army, where he spent two years as a radar instructor at Fort Bliss. Upon his discharge, he began working at KTRM Radio, where he held down the ‘Dishwashers’ Serenade’ shift from 11am to 12.30pm, Monday through Friday.
01:10 - 2 - Start:
One of the sponsors wanted Richardson for a new time slot and suggested a gimmick for the show. Richardson noticed all the college kids doing a dance called The Bop, so he decided to become known as ‘The Big Bopper’. He kicked off a new radio show from 3-6pm and soon The Big Bopper became the station's program director. In May of 1957, Jape Richardson broke the record for continuous on-the-air broadcasting by eight minutes. He went a total of five days, two hours and eight minutes, playing 1,821 records and taking showers during five-minute newscasts. During the marathon, he lost 35 pounds (16 kg). KTRM paid Richardson $746.50 for his overtime and he quickly hit the sack for 20 hours.
02:01 - 3 - Launch:
Around this time, Richardson – who played guitar – started writing more songs. George Jones later recorded Richardson’s ‘White Lightning’, which became his first #1 country hit in 1959 (#73 on the pop charts). Richardson also wrote ‘Running Bear’ for his friend from Port Arthur, Texas, Johnny Preston. Inspiration for the song came from Richardson’s childhood memory of the Sabine River, where he heard stories about Indian tribes. Jape sang background on ‘Running Bear’ but it wasn't released until September 1959, after his death. Within several months it went to #1.
The man who launched Richardson as a recording artist was Harold ‘Pappy’ Dailey from Houston. Dailey was promotion director for Mercury and Starday Records and signed Richardson to Mercury. Richardson’s first single ‘Beggar To A King’ had a country flavor, but failed to gain any chart action. He soon cut ‘Chantilly Lace’ as ‘The Big Bopper’ for Pappy Dailey’s D label. Mercury bought the recording and released it during the summer of 1958. It reached 16 on the pop charts and spent 22 weeks on the national Top 40.
03:15 - 4 - success:
With the success of ‘Chantilly Lace’, Richardson took some time off from KTRM Radio and joined Buddy Holly and the Crickets, Ritchie Valens, and Dion & the Belmonts for a ‘Winter Dance Party’ tour. On February 2, 1959, Buddy Holly chartered a Beechcraft Bonanza to take him and his new Crickets band (Tommy Allsup and Waylon Jennings) to Fargo, North Dakota. Richardson came down with the flu and didn’t feel comfortable on the bus, so Waylon gave his plane seat to him. Valens had never flown on a small plane and requested Allsup’s seat. They flipped a coin and Valens called heads and won the toss.
In the early morning of February 3, following a February 2 performance at the Surf Ballroom in Clear Lake, Iowa, the small four-passenger Beechcraft Bonanza took off into a blinding snow storm and crashed into Albert Juhl’s cornfield several miles after takeoff at 1.05am. The crash killed Holly, Valens, Richardson and pilot Roger Peterson. This event would become known as “The Day the Music Died”.
At the time of his death, Richardson, 28, left behind his wife Adrianne Joy, four-year-old Debra Joy, and a baby son who was born after his death, Jay P. Richardson. Richardson had been building a recording studio in his home in Beaumont, Texas, before that last tour and was also planning to invest in the ownership of a radio station. In addition, he had written 20 new songs with plans to record by himself and with other artists. Richardson was a well-loved figure who was known to care deeply about his family.
04:54 - 5 - death:
In 1988, Ken Paquette, a Wisconsin fan of the ’50s era, erected a stainless steel monument depicting a steel guitar and a set of three records bearing the names of each of the three performers. It is located on private farmland, about one quarter mile west of the intersection of 315th Street and Gull Avenue, approximately eight miles north of Clear Lake. He also created a similar stainless steel monument to the three musicians near the Riverside Ballroom in Green Bay, Wisconsin. That memorial was unveiled on July 17, 2003.
The Big Bopper is fondly remembered not only for his distinctive singing and songwriting, but also as a humorist who combined the best elements of country, R&B and rock 'n' roll.

Study suggests that most of our evolutionary trees could be wrong
00:00 - Study suggests that most of our evolutionary trees could be wrong
00:07 - 1 - The study:
New research led by scientists at the Milner Centre for Evolution at the University of Bath suggests that determining evolutionary trees of organisms by comparing anatomy rather than gene sequences is misleading. The study, published in Communications Biology, shows that we often need to overturn centuries of scholarly work that classified living things according to how they look.
Since Darwin and his contemporaries in the 19th Century, biologists have been trying to reconstruct the "family trees" of animals by carefully examining differences in their anatomy and structure (morphology).
However, with the development of rapid genetic sequencing techniques, biologists are now able to use genetic (molecular) data to help piece together evolutionary relationships for species very quickly and cheaply, often proving that organisms we once thought were closely related actually belong in completely different branches of the tree.
01:02 - 2 - Mapping:
For the first time, scientists at Bath compared evolutionary trees based on morphology with those based on molecular data, and mapped them according to geographical location.
They found that the animals grouped together by molecular trees lived more closely together geographically than the animals grouped using the morphological trees.
Matthew Wills, Professor of Evolutionary Paleobiology at the Milner Centre for Evolution at the University of Bath, says that "it turns out that we've got lots of our evolutionary trees wrong.
"For over a hundred years, we've been classifying organisms according to how they look and are put together anatomically, but molecular data often tells us a rather different story."
"Our study proves statistically that if you build an evolutionary tree of animals based on their molecular data, it often fits much better with their geographical distribution."
"Where things live—their biogeography—is an important source of evolutionary evidence that was familiar to Darwin and his contemporaries."
"For example, tiny elephant shrews, aardvarks, elephants, golden moles and swimming manatees have all come from the same big branch of mammal evolution—despite the fact that they look completely different from one another (and live in very different ways)."
"Molecular trees have put them all together in a group called Afrotheria, so-called because they all come from the African continent, so the group matches the biogeography."
02:27 - 3 - Discovery:
The study found that convergent evolution—when a characteristic evolves separately in two genetically unrelated groups of organisms—is much more common than biologists previously thought.
Professor Wills says that "we already have lots of famous examples of convergent evolution, such as flight evolving separately in birds, bats and insects, or complex camera eyes evolving separately in squid and humans."
"But now with molecular data, we can see that convergent evolution happens all the time—things we thought were closely related often turn out to be far apart on the tree of life."
"People who make a living as lookalikes aren't usually related to the celebrity they're impersonating, and individuals within a family don't always look similar—it's the same with evolutionary trees too."
"It proves that evolution just keeps on re-inventing things, coming up with a similar solution each time the problem is encountered in a different branch of the evolutionary tree."
"It means that convergent evolution has been fooling us—even the cleverest evolutionary biologists and anatomists—for over 100 years."
Dr. Jack Oyston, Research Associate and first author of the paper, says that "the idea that biogeography can reflect evolutionary history was a large part of what prompted Darwin to develop his theory of evolution through natural selection, so it's pretty surprising that it hadn't really been considered directly as a way of testing the accuracy of evolutionary trees in this way before now."
03:54 - 4 - Evidence:
"What's most exciting is that we find strong statistical proof of molecular trees fitting better not just in groups like Afrotheria, but across the tree of life in birds, reptiles, insects and plants too."
"It being such a widespread pattern makes it much more potentially useful as a general test of different evolutionary trees, but it also shows just how pervasive convergent evolution has been when it comes to misleading us."

Neil Sedaka
00:00 - Neil Sedaka
00:04 - 1 - Biography:
Singer, songwriter, and pianist Neil Sedaka enjoyed two distinct periods of commercial success in two slightly different styles of pop music: first, as a teen pop star in the late '50s and early '60s, then as a singer of more mature pop/rock in the '70s. In both phases, Sedaka, a classically trained pianist, composed the music for his hits (lyrics were often provided by Howard Greenfield), which he sang in a boyish tenor. And throughout, even when his own recordings weren't placing high on the charts, he served as a songwriter for other artists, resulting in a string of hits year in and year out, whether recorded by him or someone else. For himself, he wrote eight U.S. Top Ten pop hits, including the chart-toppers "Breaking Up Is Hard to Do," "Laughter in the Rain," and "Bad Blood." The most successful cover of one of his compositions was Captain & Tennille's recording of "Love Will Keep Us Together," another number one. And over the years his songs were recorded by hundreds of pop, rock, country, R&B, and jazz performers, including ABBA, the Carpenters, Cher, Patsy Cline, Rosemary Clooney, Sheryl Crow, Bobby Darin, Neil Diamond, Gloria Estefan, Tom Jones, Carole King, Peggy Lee, Johnny Mathis, the Monkees, Wilson Pickett, and Elvis Presley.
01;30 - 2 - Life:
Sedaka was a promising pianist as a youngster, and was once selected by Arthur Rubinstein to play on New York City's classical radio station; he also studied at New York's prestigious Juilliard school. At the same time, he set down roots in rock & roll and doo wop by singing in an early version of the Tokens. After he had his first songwriting success in 1958 with Connie Francis' "Stupid Cupid," he got a deal with RCA as a solo artist. Sedaka's own hits were well-crafted, but were probably the most innocuous hits to come out of the early Brill Building crowd. His rather thin, high vocals were boosted by multi-tracking, which was still a novel technique at the time.
02:15 - 3 - Success:
The big hits stopped rolling in for Sedaka a good year or so before the Beatles became popular in America. He concentrated more on the songwriting end of the business for the next decade, continuing to write with Greenfield and scoring occasional successes. He made an unexpectedly successful comeback in England in the early '70s, where three of his albums were co-produced by Graham Gouldman of 10cc. By the mid-'70s he was recording for Elton John's Rocket label, and got a number one hit with the ballad "Laughter in the Rain" in 1974. That and "Love Will Keep Us Together," which he and Greenfield wrote for Captain & Tennille, did much to get MOR pop off the ground. Sedaka got another number one hit, "Bad Blood," in 1975, with Elton John helping out on background vocals. A slow remake of "Breaking Up Is Hard to Do" made the Top Ten the following year, and although he would never enter the Top 40 after 1980, he was assured of a successful career as a perennial on the MOR circuit.
Clearly, Sedaka's days as a multi-platinum recording act were over by the mid-'80s, but he had amassed a sufficient backlog of hits that he could perform successfully for decades in theaters and hotel casinos in the U.S. and internationally. That's what he did, meanwhile issuing occasional new recordings and re-recordings of his old songs. The death of Howard Greenfield from AIDS in 1986 prompted the release of the double-album My Friend, containing the duo's best-known work. In 1991, Polydor's Timeless: The Very Best of Neil Sedaka became a Top Ten hit in the U.K. Varèse Sarabande's 1995 collection Tuneweaver found Sedaka revisiting many of his old hits, and the same year saw the release of Classically Sedaka on Vision, an album on which he adapted classical themes into songs with new lyrics that he wrote himself. Tales of Love and Other Passions, featuring a jazz trio, appeared in 1997. In 1999, a TV-advertised collection, The Very Best of Neil Sedaka, charted in the U.K.
04:27 - 4 - great success:
Sedaka's first major release of the 2000s was Brighton Beach Memories: Neil Sedaka Sings Yiddish, released on Sameach in 2003, and the same year Sedaka self-released an album of new songs to which he had written both music and lyrics, The Show Goes On. Early 2010 brought another set of new songs, The Music of My Life, which was packaged with a disc of his greatest hits. As the decade rolled on, Sedaka remained a fixture in the U.K., calling the country his home and, appropriately, most of his albums were released primarily in Britain. This included reissues as well as The Real Neil, which comprised new songs with re-recordings of old tunes.

Illegally mined gold in the Amazon rainforest
00:00 - Illegally mined gold in the Amazon rainforest
00:07 - 1 - Origin:
The AP previously reported in this series that the scale of prospecting for gold on Indigenous lands has exploded in recent years and involves carving illegal landing strips in the forest for unauthorized airplanes to ferry in heavy equipment, fuel, and backhoes to tear at the earth in search of the precious metal. Weak government oversight enabled by President Jair Bolsonaro, the son of a prospector himself, has only exacerbated the problem of illegal gold mining in protected areas. Critics also fault an international certification program used by manufacturers to show they aren't using minerals that come from conflict zones, saying it is an exercise in greenwashing.
“There is no real traceability as long as the industry relies on self-regulation,” said Mark Pieth, a professor of criminal law at the University of Basel in Switzerland and author of a 2018 book called “Gold Laundering.” “People know where the gold comes from, but they don't bother to go very far back into the supply chain because they know they will come into contact with all kinds of criminal activity.”
Much like brown and black tributaries that feed the Amazon River, gold illegally mined in the rainforest mixes into the supply chain and melds with clean gold to become almost indistinguishable.
Nuggets are spirited out of the jungle in prospectors' dusty pockets to the nearest city where they are sold to financial brokers. All that's required to transform the raw ore into a tradable asset regulated by the central bank is a handwritten document attesting to the specific point in the rainforest where the gold was extracted. The fewer questions asked, the better.
At many of those brokers' Amazon outposts - the financial system's front door - the gold becomes the property of Dirceu Frederico Sobrinho.
For four decades, Dirceu has embodied the up-by-your-bootstraps myth of the Brazilian garimpeiro, or prospector. The son of a vegetable grocer who sold his produce near an infamous open-pit mine so packed with prospectors - among them Bolsonaro's father - they looked like swarming ants, he caught the gold bug in the mid-1980s.
Today, from a high rise on Sao Paulo's busiest avenue, he is a major player in Brazil's gold rush, with 173 prospecting areas either registered to his name or with pending requests, according to Brazil's mining regulator's registry. In the same building is the headquarters of the nation's gold association, Anoro, which he leads. Dirceu - universally known by his first name - until last year, was also a partner in Marsam.
But even with gold jewelry dangling from his fingers and wrist, Dirceu still proudly boasts his everyman garimpeiro roots.
“You don't motivate someone to go into the forest if they're not chasing after a dream,” he said in a rare interview from his corner office studded with a giant jade eagle. “Whoever deals in gold has that: They dream, they believe, they like it.”
At the center of Dirceu's empire is F.D'Gold, Brazil's largest buyer of gold from prospecting sites, with purchases last year totaling more than 2 billion reais ($361 million) from 252 wildcat sites, according to data from the mining regulator. Only two international firms that run industrial-sized gold mines paid more in royalties in 2021, a sign of how once artisanal prospecting has become big business in Brazil - at least for some.
In August, federal prosecutors filed a civil suit against F.D'Gold and two other brokers seeking the immediate suspension of all activities and payment of 10 billion reais ($1.8 billion) in social and environmental damages.
The complaint alleges the companies failed to take actions that would have prevented the illegal extraction of a combined 4.3 metric tons from protected areas and Indigenous territories, where mining is not allowed. Dirceu said his company complies with all laws and has implemented extra controls, but he acknowledged that determining the exact origin of the gold it obtains is “impossible” at present.
04:16 - 2 - Illegal Extraction:
The ongoing suit is the result of a study published last July by the Federal University of Minas Gerais that found that as much as 28% of Brazil's gold produced in 2019 and 2020 was potentially mined illegally. To reach that conclusion, researchers combed through 17,400 government-registered transactions by F.D'Gold and other buyers to pinpoint the location where the gold was purportedly mined. In many cases, the given location wasn't an authorized site or, when cross-checked with satellite images, showed none of the hallmark signs of mining activity - deforestation, stagnant ponds of waste - meaning the gold originated elsewhere.
Whatever its origin, all the raw ore purchased by F.D'Gold ends up at Marsam.
F.D'Gold accounts for more than one-third of the gold Marsam processes, according to Andre Nunes, an external consultant for Marsam.
After almost two years as a partner in the Sao Paulo-based refiner, Dirceu stepped down last year and his daughter, Sarah Almeida Westphal, assumed management responsibilities. It was part of an effort to put different family members in charge of their own businesses, which function as separate legal entities, said Nunes, who previously worked for F.D'Gold.
“As much as it's the same family, it's important that each monkey has its own branch,” he said.
But Westphal could be seen working on a computer at F.D'Gold's office on the day the AP interviewed Dirceu.
More than 300 publicly traded companies list Marsam as a refiner in responsible mining disclosures they are required to file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The refiner has been virtually the only supplier to Brazil's mint over the past decade, according to data provided to the AP through a freedom of information request.
Enabling such robust sales around the world is a seal of approval from the Responsible Minerals Initiative, or RMI.
06:17 - 3 - Attempt certification:
The certification program, run by a Virginia-based coalition of manufacturers, emerged with the passage a decade ago of legislation in the U.S. requiring companies to disclose their use of conflict minerals fueling civil war in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Later, its standards were supplemented by tougher guidelines developed by the Paris-based Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development or OECD
Marsam is one of just two refiners in Brazil certified as compliant with RMI's standards for responsible sourcing of gold, having successfully completed two independent audits. The last one was performed in 2018 by UL Responsible Sourcing, an Illinois-based consultancy.
Marsam hasn't been accused by prosecutors of any wrongdoing and insists that it only refines gold, not sell it, on behalf of third-party exporters and domestic vendors.
The company in 2016 introduced a supply chain policy, which it has updated over the years, requiring it to seek out information from suppliers whenever they are publicly linked to illicit activities. They are also expected to analyze a mandatory declaration of origin form submitted by each client. No such risks were identified in the most recent RMI report and the Marsam was moved to a lower risk category requiring an audit once every three years.
Critics say one problem is that the OECD's guidelines RMI measures companies against pay scant attention to environmental crimes or the rights of Indigenous communities. Instead, they are geared toward risks stemming from civil wars and criminal networks. In Latin America, only Mexico, Colombia and Venezuela - where drug cartels or guerrilla insurgencies are active - are classified as conflict-affected and high-risk areas deserving greater scrutiny for sourcing practices.

Janet Jackson praises Lizzo for helping women
00:00 - Janet Jackson praises Lizzo for helping women
00:08 - 1 - Interview:
For decades, Janet Jackson has been the pinnacle for aesthetics and beauty in the music industry. Throughout the years, the legendary pop star has been vocal about some of the challenges she’s faced when it comes to beauty standards in Hollywood. These days, the timeless beauty is feeling more confident than ever, and sharing some of the wisdom she’s gained along the way.
In a recent interview with Allure, Miss Jackson opened up about the challenges women face when it comes to beauty in the media and how much that has changed over the years. She also reflected on the obsessive expectation for women to be as thin as possible, telling the mag:
“But now, women are coming into their own and taking charge of their identity. They’re defining their own beauty standards.”
00:55 - 2 - The praise:
Janet specifically praised Lizzo for helping women get “comfortable in their skin, in their size, in being full-figured.” The “Control” singer added:
“And I love that, as opposed to back in the day. You had to always be thin and always look a certain way. And now it’s all accepted, and it is all beautiful and I absolutely love that.”
01:20 - 3 - Trust:
Lizzo has made it a safe place for women of all ages, shapes and sizes to feel beautiful just by being their true selves. When speaking with Dove for the brand’s “Self-Esteem Project”, the “Truth Hurts” singer shared:
“I’m going to continue to live in this body and survive in this body and be happy and actually enjoy life, I need to find a way to like myself. I was body negative for a long time. It’s not a political statement. It’s just my body. When you see it, keep it pushing. Keep that same energy that you keep with all the other bodies you see. That’s what body normative really means to me”

he biological difference, between psychopaths and normal people
00:00 - The biological difference, between psychopaths and normal people
00:07 - 1 - New study:
Neuroscientists using MRI scans discovered that psychopathic people have a 10% larger striatum, a cluster of neurons in the subcortical basal ganglia of the forebrain, than regular people. This represents a clear biological distinction between psychopaths and non-psychopathic people.
Neuroscientists from Nanyang Technological University (NTU Singapore), the University of Pennsylvania, and California State University have discovered a biological distinction between psychopaths and non-psychopaths. Using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans, scientists discovered that the striatum, an area of the forebrain, was 10% bigger in psychopathic people compared to a control group of individuals with low or no psychopathic traits.
00:57 - 2 - Compromised parties:
Psychopaths, or those with psychopathic qualities, are people who have an egotistical and antisocial disposition. This is often characterized by a lack of guilt for their actions, a lack of empathy for others, and, in some cases, criminal tendencies.
The striatum, which is part of the forebrain, the subcortical region of the brain that encompasses the whole cerebrum, coordinates numerous elements of cognition, including motor and action planning, decision-making, motivation, reinforcement, and reward perception.
Previous research has shown that psychopaths have overactive striatum, but the influence of its size on behavior has yet to be confirmed. The new research demonstrates a significant biological difference between people who exhibit psychopathic tendencies and those who do not. While not all people with psychopathic qualities end up violating the law, and not all criminals satisfy the criteria for psychopathy, there is a strong association. There is also significant evidence that psychopathy is associated with more aggressive behavior.
02:05 - 3 - Antisocial behavior:
The understanding of the role of biology in antisocial and criminal behavior may help improve existing theories of behavior, as well as inform policy and treatment options. To conduct their study, the neuroscientists scanned the brains of 120 participants in the United States and interviewed them using the Psychopathy Checklist-Revised, a psychological assessment tool to determine the presence of psychopathic traits in individuals.
Assistant Professor Olivia Choy, from NTU’s School of Social Sciences, a neurocriminologist who co-authored the study, said “Our study’s results help advance our knowledge about what underlies antisocial behavior such as psychopathy. We find that in addition to social environmental influences, it is important to consider that there can be differences in biology, in this case, the size of brain structures, between antisocial and non-antisocial individuals.”
Professor Adrian Raine from the Departments of Criminology, Psychiatry, and Psychology at the University of Pennsylvania, who co-authored the study, stated “Because biological traits, such as the size of one’s striatum, can be inherited to a child from a parent, these findings give added support to neurodevelopmental perspectives of psychopathy – that the brains of these offenders do not develop normally throughout childhood and adolescence.”
Professor Robert Schug from the School of Criminology, Criminal Justice, and Emergency Management at California State University, Long Beach, who co-authored the study, added “The use of the Psychopathy Checklist-Revised in a community sample remains a novel scientific approach: Helping us understand psychopathic traits in individuals who are not in jails and prisons, but rather in those who walk among us each day.”
Highlighting the significance of the work done by the joint research team, Associate Professor Andrea Glenn from the Department of Psychology of The University of Alabama, who is not involved in the research, stated “By replicating and extending prior work, this study increases our confidence that psychopathy is associated with structural differences in the striatum, a brain region that is important in a variety of processes important for cognitive and social functioning. Future studies will be needed to understand the factors that may contribute to these structural differences.”
04:24 - 4 - Bigger striatum, larger appetite for stimulation:
Through analyses of the MRI scans and results from the interviews to screen for psychopathy, the researchers linked having larger striatum to an increased need for stimulation, through thrills and excitement, and a higher likelihood of impulsive behaviors.
The striatum is part of the basal ganglia, which is made up of clusters of neurons deep in the center of the brain. The basal ganglia receive signals from the cerebral cortex, which controls cognition, social behavior, and discerning which sensory information warrants attention.
In the past two decades, however, the understanding of the striatum has expanded, yielding hints that the region is linked to difficulties in social behavior. Previous studies have not addressed whether striatal enlargement is observed in adult females with psychopathic traits.
The neuroscientists say that within their study of 120 individuals, they examined 12 females and observed, for the first time, that psychopathy was linked to enlarged striatum in females, just as in males. In human development, the striatum typically becomes smaller as a child matures, suggesting that psychopathy could be related to differences in how the brain develops.
Asst Prof Choy suggested “A better understanding of the striatum’s development is still needed. Many factors are likely involved in why one individual is more likely to have psychopathic traits than another individual. Psychopathy can be linked to a structural abnormality in the brain that may be developmental in nature. At the same time, it is important to acknowledge that the environment can also have effects on the structure of the striatum.”
Prof Raine added “We have always known that psychopaths go to extreme lengths to seek out rewards, including criminal activities that involve property, sex, and drugs. We are now finding out a neurobiological underpinning of this impulsive and stimulating behavior in the form of enlargement to the striatum, a key brain area involved in rewards.
The scientists hope to carry out further research to find out the causes of the enlargement of the striatum in individuals with psychopathic traits.

Eddie Cochran
00:00 - Eddie Cochran
00:04 - 1 - Origin:
Raised in Minnesota, Cochran moved with his family to California in the early 1950s. After learning to play blues guitar, he teamed up with fellow guitarist Hank Cochran (no relation), with whom he began recording in 1955 as the Cochran Brothers. The duet split up the next year, and Cochran began a song-writing career with Jerry Capeheart. He received an important break when he was asked to perform his song “Twenty Flight Rock” in the movie The Girl Can’t Help It, starring Jayne Mansfield. Soon after, Liberty Records signed him to a recording contract.
Cochran's first hit was “Sittin’ in the Balcony," reaching number 18 on the pop charts in 1957. The following year, his iconic anthem celebrating teenage boredom, “Summertime Blues,” made the Top 10 and became a rock and roll classic. Two additional hits, “C’mon Everybody” and “Somethin’ Else," established Cochran as a star, particularly in England.
Cochran was 21 when he died on April 17, 1960, in an auto accident en route to the London airport. Many of his songs were released posthumously, and "Summertime Blues" later made the record charts in cover versions by The Who and Blue Cheer, as well as being featured in the soundtracks of numerous films. In 1987, Cochran was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
01:32 - 2 - Early years
Cochran was raised in Albert Lea, Minnesota, as Ray Edward Cochran. He took music lessons in school but quit the school band to play drums. He also eschewed piano lessons and took up the guitar, playing the country music he heard on the radio. In the early 50s, Cochran's family moved to Bell Gardens, California. As his guitar playing improved, he formed a band with two friends from his junior high school.
During a show featuring many performers at an American Legion hall, Eddie met Hank Cochran (later a noted country-music songwriter). Although they were not related, they began performing together and recorded as the "Cochran Brothers." Eddie also worked as a session musician and began writing songs, making a demo record with Jerry Capehart, his future manager.
02:24 - 3 - Solo success
In 1956, Cochran was invited to appear in the musical-comedy film The Girl Can't Help It starring Jayne Mansfield and featuring performances of early rock and roll stars Gene Vincent and Little Richard, who sang the title sang. Cochran performed his song "Twenty Flight Rock," about the frustration of a young man in love with a girl who lives on the twentieth floor of a building with a broken elevator. In 1957, Cochran had a role in his second film, Untamed Youth and also had his first hit, "Sittin' in the Balcony," written by John D. Loudermilk.
Cochran followed this with what would become his most famous song, "Summertime Blues" co-written with Jerry Capehart. Released on Liberty Records, it charted number eight on August 25, 1958, after receiving massive air play throughout the summer. A light-hearted expression of teenage boredom, the concluding line of the song's final verse was a classic expression of naive political alienation: "I called my congressman and he said, quote: 'I'd like to help you son, but you're too young to vote.'" The song would play an important influence on the rock music of the late 50s, both lyrically and musically, and has since been widely covered and used in numerous movie soundtracks.
A highly talented guitarist, Cochran was an energetic stage performer as well as an early expert at studio overdubbing, whereby he was able to play and sing all the parts on several of his songs. Continually touring, Cochran was backed by the Kelly Four, including bassist Connie Smith, who was later replaced by Dave Schrieber; drummer Gene Ridgio; and a series of pianists and saxophonists. When playing with Hank Cochran, Eddie played a Gibson electric-acoustic guitar with a single florentine cutaway. Later, he moved to a 1956 Gretsch 6120 Chet Atkins Western model, which Eddie had modified, replacing the neck position De Armond Dynasonic pickup with a black covered Gibson P-90 pickup. He also used acoustic guitars.
Cochran's brief career included only a few more hits, such as "C'mon Everybody," "Somethin' Else," "My Way," "Weekend," "Nervous Breakdown," and his posthumous UK number-one hit "Three Steps to Heaven."
04:43 - 4 - Death
On Saturday, April 16, 1960, at about 11:50 p.m., while on tour in the United Kingdom, 21-year-old Cochran died in a traffic accident traveling through Chippenham, Wiltshire, England on the A4. Their taxi crashed into a lamppost on Rowden Hill, killing Cochran. A plaque now commemorates the event at the site. No other car was involved.
Cochran was taken to St. Martin's Hospital, Bath, but died at 4:10 p.m. the following day. Also injured in the crash were fellow rock performer Gene Vincent and Cochran’s fiancée, Sharon Sheeley, co-writer of “Somethin’ Else” and composer of Rick Nelson’s 1958 number-one hit, “Poor Little Fool.” The taxi driver, George Martin, was convicted of dangerous driving, fined £50, disqualified from driving for 15 years, and sent to prison for six months.

Living cells in a robot skeleton
00:00 - Living cells in a robot skeleton
00:06 - 1 - Discovery:
Scientists have discovered a new tissue engineering concept. The science of growing human cells to use in medical treatments is still very young. But scientists have been working hard to come up with new ways to do it effectively. A new method discovered by engineers could improve the quality of tissue engineering by growing it on moving robotic skeletons.
But what makes growing human cells on a moving skeleton so important? Typically, these kinds of cells are grown in very static environments, like these brain cells grown in a petri dish. As such, the cells aren’t particularly designed to flex and move like natural cells. In the past, researchers have grown cells on hinges. But those cells only flex and stretch in one direction.
00:57 - 2 - Fantastic advance:
By growing them on a full robotic skeleton, the cells could be designed to flex and stretch like naturally grown human cells. This could allow medical treatment in wider situations, especially if the cells are needed for areas that require flexing or stretching. Of course, this new tissue engineering concept still has a way a go before it reaches past “proof of concept.”
Still, it’s a fantastic push forward for the research and one that I can’t help but applaud. The researchers published a paper in Communications Engineering that documents their findings. They decided to go with a robotic skeleton because growing cells in an actual person can bring a slew of difficulties to the table.
01:43 - 3 - Growing cells on a robotic skeleton
To test the new tissue engineering concept, the researchers built a robotic shoulder joint that could accurately approximate our own movements. From here, they made a bioreactor and fitted it into the shoulder. The reactor included strings of biodegradable filaments that stretched between two anchor points.
They then seeded the filaments with human cells and flooded a chamber built around the filaments with nutrient-rich liquid. This helped encourage growth in the cells. Over the course of two weeks, the cells grew alongside a daily workout routine. This routine included 30 minutes of the skeleton moving the cells around to help stretch and flex them.
Throughout the experiment, the researchers noted several differences and changes in the cells. Especially when compared to cells grown in a static environment. However, they aren’t quite sure whether the changes caused by the new tissue engineering concept are actually good. Instead, one of the researchers told The Verge that the changes were ambiguous for use in medical applications.
02:52 - 4 - The certainty:
Ultimately, growing human cells on a robotic skeleton is possible. However, the researchers still need to determine if the changes caused by the skeleton are actually worth the time. Finding new tissue engineering concepts is a noble goal for sure. But, if the concept doesn’t prove worthwhile, researchers will no doubt look for other concepts to help grow human cells better.

Brian Poole and the Tremeloes
00:00 - Brian Poole and the Tremeloes
00:06 - 1 - biography:
It's difficult for anyone who has heard them not to like -- or even love -- the Tremeloes. They were one of the more prodigiously talented British pop/rock bands of the 1960s, and they threw that talent into the making of amazingly catchy and well-crafted singles that lit up the charts and radio on both sides of the Atlantic for four years running, from 1966 through 1970.
Yet, the Tremeloes are also one of the least-known and least-respected of 1960s English bands. The precise reason for the lack of respect is difficult to pin down, except perhaps that their timing was out, as far as making the most of their success. They generally didn't write their own material, and they cut their best singles long after the British Invasion (and the mystique surrounding the bands that were part of it) had ended. And, yet, ironically, the Tremeloes are also one of the longest surviving English rock & roll bands, playing regularly more than 40 years after the group's founding.
01:08 - 2 - Start:
The band first got together in 1958, when the original members were all in their teens. They were closer in years and background to early British beat bands like the Shadows than to the British Invasion bands with which they subsequently became associated. The original lineup of Brian Poole (vocals, guitar), Alan Blakley (drums), Alan Howard (sax), and Graham Scott (guitar) had Buddy Holly's Crickets as their inspiration. This version of the band didn't stay together long, however, and Blakley quickly switched to guitar (which Poole relinquished) after Dave Munden joined on the drums. Munden proved not only to be a very talented percussionist but also a good singer. This gave the group a third vocalist, which would prove essential to their success further on in their history. Alan Howard also switched to bass soon after Munden joined.
02:05 - 3 - Recognition:
The band -- then known as "the Tremilos" thanks to a misspelling -- built up a following at local dances and clubs, and then broke into the U.S. air-base circuit, where the length of the sets that they were forced to play required them to learn a massive number of new songs. By 1961, they had turned professional. The group's lineup changed again around that time when Graham Scott left and was replaced by Rick West (born Rick Westwood), who had previously played with Tony Rivers & the Castaways.
02:39 - 4 - Success:
West's arrival was key to the group's long-term success, providing the band with a top-flight (indeed, classically trained) guitarist. They also got a professional manager in the guise of Peter Walsh, who already represented such acts as the Brook Brothers (England's answer to the Everly Brothers) and the vocal group the Kestrels. The band's first break happened soon after when they were spotted by Jimmy Grant, the producer of the BBC's Saturday Club music showcase, who got them an audition for the BBC. This led to the group becoming regulars on radio, and, in turn, resulted in an audition for Decca Records on New Year's Day, 1962. At the time, Decca was looking for a new rock & roll act, and the Tremeloes were up against a relatively obscure Liverpool quartet called the Beatles. Decca executives Dick Rowe and Mike Smith were in charge of the auditions, with Rowe reportedly leaving the choice up to Smith. The latter chose the Tremeloes, reportedly based on the fact that they were based in London and, thus, would be more accessible than the Beatles.
The signing had a range of consequences for the band and its future. At the time, it was routine for groups to have a featured member, Cliff Richard & the Shadows being the prime example; thus, the label insisted that the band be signed as Brian Poole & the Tremeloes.
The band accepted this as one price of pursuing success, and Poole became the perceived star of the band. They cut a series of records backing other artists -- including the Vernons Girls ("The Locomotion") and DJ Jimmy Savile, on the latter's version of "Ahab the Arab," as well as some failed singles of their own -- got into the lineup of artists in the juke-box comedy film Just for Fun, and generally missed even modest chart action by the length of their fingertips; their singles of "Twist Little Sister" and "Keep on Dancing" failed to find audiences, despite some valiant efforts at promotion. Success seemed to become less likely as 1963 wore on and a new wave of English rock & roll acts, spearheaded, ironically enough, by the Beatles, began dominating the radio and the charts.
Rather than wilting in this new environment, Brian Poole & the Tremeloes rose to the challenge. They changed their look and pumped up the rhythm-guitar parts in their songs, and began looking at R&B, rather than white rock & roll, as a source of material and inspiration.
The result was their version of "Twist and Shout," which managed to rise to number four on the English charts, despite running up head-to-head with the Beatles' recording, issued on an EP that summer. Their next record, a cover of the Contours' hit "Do You Love Me," was a classic of the era, an honest, authentic-sounding screamer of a single that hit number one in England once the Beatles' "She Loves You" vacated the spot, and managed to eclipse a rival version by the Dave Clark Five. In its wake, Brian Poole & the Tremeloes managed a series of respectable, even occasionally inspired hits over the next two years, including a U.K. Top Ten cover of Roy Orbison's "Candy Man" and a convincingly raucous rendition of the Strangeloves' Bo Diddley-beat-driven anthem "I Want Candy."
They appeared on film, most notably a pair of performance clips in the feature film Go Go, Big Beat, and a featured spot in A Touch of Blarney, and made the rounds of the television-music showcases, charting moderately well until the end of 1965. The band ran into hard times just about then, owing to issues of music and style.
Possibly it was a result of the fact that they'd never really been part of the British Invasion, but the Tremeloes had never seen fit to update their image, which had been something of a pose to start with. They still dressed in matching suits on stage, and performed the same brand of stomping covers of American R&B and rock & roll. It was no longer possible to expect those to chart, however. Their competition wasn't the Dave Clark Five or Gerry & the Pacemakers, but the likes of much heavier and musically higher-powered bands such as the Yardbirds and the Kinks, not to mention the rapidly evolving Beatles and Rolling Stones; all of whom seemed to up the musical ante, in terms of what sounds and instruments they brought to the table, with each new release. Additionally, Poole had emerged as the star of the group and developed a star mentality, and became convinced that his future lay in a career as a pop-oriented vocalist, in the manner of such up-and-coming figures as Tom Jones. The chart failure of their cover of the Olympics' "Good Lovin'" brought a halt to the success the quintet had been enjoying, and started Poole looking out for his own interests and future.
07:26 - 5 - Active:
Beyond that point, the group seemed to lose its rudder. They tried sounding heavy ("Right Wheel, Left Hammer, Sham") and country ("Hello Buddy"), spoofing glam rock with "Blue Suede Tie," and even changed their name (the Trems). By the mid-'70s, the Tremeloes were playing in cabaret, a strategy similar to that of the Searchers and a few other surviving '60s bands. They never stopped working, or were without work, however; Dave Munden was there on drums and Rick West stayed on guitar, and the group cut music for DJM, Pye, and Polydor intermittently, before briefly returning to CBS in the early '80s.
In the late '90s, Munden and West were still there, with keyboardist/singer/engineer Joe Gillingham and bassist/guitarist/singer Davey Freyer, playing regular gigs in England and Europe. The group's Decca sides with Poole (who since re-emerged as a singer, sometimes billed on CDs as "Brian Poole OF the Tremeloes") have been reissued on CD by Decca Records, but are rather difficult to find; by contrast, Rhino, Sequel, and Repertoire Records each has out a collection of the Tremeloes' post-1965 hits. The band keeps an active website up and bids fair, at this rate, to be busy for their golden anniversary in rock & roll before the end of the first decade of the 21st century.

Lost Cities in the Amazon Found
00:00 -Lost Cities in the Amazon Found
00:03 - 1 - The Researcher:
Have you ever heard of Percy Harrison Fawcett?
He was a British geographer, artillery officer, cartographer, archaeologist, and explorer who dedicated his life to exploring South America and finding a lost city in the Amazon.
Fawcett disappeared in 1925, along with his eldest son, Jack, and one of Jack's friends, Raleigh during an expedition to find "Z".
He spent years to find 'Z', his name for an ancient lost city that he and others believed existed in the jungles of Brazil.
While it never came to be known if Fawcett ever found what he was looking for, scientists have recently discovered pyramids and canals beneath the forests of the Bolivian Amazon. With the help of LiDAR technology, archaeologists were able to see through a canopy to reveal hundreds of unknown structures and settlements from the Casarabe culture of 500-1400 AD.
The new laser-mapping technology was used to penetrate a dense Bolivian rainforest, according to a journal published .
01:08 - 2 - Discovery:
Thanks to the new tech, the archaeologists have made the landmark discovery of pyramids, canals, and town-like civilisations in the area.
"Pyramids and canals built by an ancient civilisation have been discovered beneath the forests of the Bolivian Amazon. LiDAR technology allowed archaeologists to see through the canopy to reveal hundreds of previously unknown structures and settlements from the Casarabe culture of 500-1400 AD. In this film archaeologist Heiko Prümers describes his work in a region long thought to be unable to support complex ancient societies."
The discovery of the ancient structures proves that Amazonians lived together in township-like structures even before the invaders set foot on their land.
For the expedition to be successful, scientists from Germany and the UK searched six regions of Bolivia using a helicopter equipped with light detection.
"This is the first of what I hope will be a huge series of studies that will blow the lid off of preconceptions about what pre-Hispanic polities looked like in the Amazon in terms of their complexity, size and density," said Colorado State University archaeologist Chris Fisher.
