  • But Why: a Podcast for Curious Kids the Kratts Take on Wild Animal
    But Why: A Podcast for Curious Kids The Kratts Take On Wild Animal Adventures April 21, 2017 [00:00:20] [Jane Lindholm] This is But Why, a podcast for curious kids, from Vermont Public Radio. I'm Jane Lindholm. Today we're going to bring you a special episode in-between our regularly scheduled shows. When I'm not working on But Why, I have a regular job making a radio show for VPR. [00:00:39] [Jane Lindholm]. It's called Vermont Edition, and on that show I interview all kinds of people who have connections to Vermont and New England. We talk about politics, breaking news, arts, culture, sports and anything else you can think of. The other day, I got to talk with two brothers who I thought you might enjoy hearing from. Chris and Martin Kratt are better known together as the Kratts. They have spent the last 20 years making educational TV shows for kids that introduce you to all kinds of animals around the world. The show you might see these days is called Wild Kratts and it's a PBS kids show. They've also done shows called Zoboomafoo, Kratts’ Creatures and Be the Creature. Martin and Chris spent a lot of their summer time as boys in a place in Vermont called the Northeast Kingdom. It's a very rural and still kind of wild part of the state up near the Canadian border. So we're going to play you my interview with them in this special episode; and they answered a lot of questions from kids who called in.

  • Biography Armed with Some of the Greatest Songs Ever Written, The
    Biography Armed with some of the greatest songs ever written, The Miracles are still after 40 years, attracting enthusiastic audiences around the world. Motown’s first of many famous groups such as The Temptations, The Four Tops, The Supremes, The Commodores, and The Jackson Five, and of course The Miracles the very first group to sign to Motown records, continue to keep the Motown sound alive by performing songs, such as: “Shop Around”, “I Second That Emotion”, “Tears Of A Clown”, “Love Machine”, “You’ve Really Got A Hold On Me”, “The Tracks Of My Tears”, “Ooh Baby Baby” and many more. Their performances at the Nassau Coliseum, the Inaugural Gala in Washington, D.C. and the 4th of July celebration at Duke University with over 60,000 fans in attendance, was simply unbelievable. In 1956, Bobby Rogers, Smokey Robinson, Claudette Robinson, Ronnie White and Pete Moore, childhood friends became The Miracles, and embarked on a career that would surpass their wildest dreams. Berry Gordy Motown’s founder recorded and released “Shop Around” a number one smash on all the charts, establishing The Miracles and giving Motown their first gold seller, this was the beginning of the record company and the group success for many years to come. The Miracles and Motown Records became known throughout the entire world. Over the course of the years, The Miracles continued to record chart-topping hits, including “Ooo Baby Baby”, “Going To A Go-Go”, “More Love”, “Mickey’s Monkey” and “Tears Of A Clown”. The Miracles established themselves as one of the best groups of all times.

  • Applying Traditional Theories of International Relations
    INTERNATIONAL SECURITY AND THE SPACE DOMAIN: APPLYING TRADITIONAL THEORIES OF INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS TO THE ASTROPOLITICAL ENVIRONMENT by ALLEN ERIC ROTTER KARL R. DEROUEN, COMMITTEE CHAIR DERRICK V. FRAZIER, COMMITTEE CO-CHAIR EVERETT C. DOLMAN WENDY WHITMAN COBB STEPHEN BORRELLI DANIEL J. LEVINE HOLGER ALBRECHT A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Political Science in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2020 Copyright Allen Eric Rotter 2020 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Traditional theories of International Relations have long been used to describe the politics of space. The space security debate itself reflects the inter-paradigm debate of the 1970s and 1980s in which neorealist and neoliberal institutionalist scholars argued over the constitutive character of the anarchic international system. This disagreement is projected onto the space environment and thus contending theoretical assumptions are used to justify opposing propositions concerning the securitization of the domain. Neorealists assume that militarization is an effective method of securitization while neoliberals assume that subscription to international institutions is a more effective method. The extant literature on space security appeals to or extends from military doctrine and political psychology to make prospective space behaviors intelligible. In this dissertation, I apply the theoretical assumptions that undergird traditional schools of thought to the space security environment and operationalize them in a manner conducive to quantitative statistical analysis. I propose that the security status of space can be operationalized by the frequency of non-military payloads placed in orbit every year. This represents the perceived precarity of the domain among civilian and commercial industrial leaders.

  • From Label to Practice: the Process of Creating New Nordic Cuisine
    Journal of Culinary Science & Technology,11:36–55,2013 Copyright © Taylor & Francis Group, LLC ISSN: 1542-8052 print/1542-8044 online DOI: 10.1080/15428052.2013.754296 From Label to Practice: The Process of Creating New Nordic Cuisine HALDOR BYRKJEFLOT,1 JESPER STRANDGAARD PEDERSEN,2 and SILVIYA SVEJENOVA2 1University of Oslo, Oslo, Norway 2Copenhagen Business School, Copenhagen, Denmark This article examines the process of creation of new Nordic cui- sine (NNC) as a culinary innovation, focusing on the main stages, actors, and mechanisms that shaped the new label and its prac- tices and facilitated its diffusion in the region and internationally. Fast-paced diffusion was possible because NNC was conceived as an identity movement, triggered by active involvement of entrepreneurial leaders from the culinary profession, high-profile political supporters, legitimating scientists, disseminating media, and interpreting audiences. It was facilitated by three mechanisms: First, the use of an “empty” label, without a previous meaning in food, yet with positive connotations in other domains, allowed establishing a positive abstract notion open to interpretations and different practices. Second, the invitation for participation and financial support for innovative initiatives allowed for more actors and institutions to develop practices associated with the NNC label. Third, organized dissemination allowed the excitement and engagement with the new label to spread quickly. KEYWORDS New Nordic Cuisine, culinary innovation, diffusion, identity movement Received 28 March 2012; accepted 11 June 2012. We would like to thank our informants Eivind Hålien, Peter Kreiner, Claus Meyer, Ólafur Örn Ólafsson, Harald Osa, Einar Risvik, Finn Børre Stokholm, Mette Vinther Talberg, Fannar Vernharðsson, and Andreas Viestad for sharing their insights about New Nordic Cuisine.

    PRESS CONTACTS: Laura Farmer, 410.783.8024 [email protected] Alyssa Porambo, 410.783.8044 [email protected] Jack Everly Leads the Magic of Motown, May 30-June 2 Program features male vocal quartet, Spectrum, and female vocal quartet, Radiance, performing hits by the Temptations, The Supremes, the Four Tops and more Baltimore, Md. (April 25, 2013) – The Baltimore Symphony Orchestra’s Principal Pops Conductor Jack Everly leads male vocalist group Spectrum and female vocalist group Radiance in Motown’s most memorable hits on Thursday, May 30 at 8 p.m. at the Music Center at Strathmore, and Friday, May 31, Saturday, June 1 at 8 p.m. and Sunday, June 2 at 3 p.m. at the Joseph Meyerhoff Symphony Hall. The program will feature legendary songs from the Temptations, The Supremes, the Four Tops, Aretha Franklin and more. Please see below for complete program details. In 1959, Berry Gordy borrowed $800 to establish Motown Records, the label that would quickly go on to produce more than 180 No. 1 hit songs and sign some of the best-selling artists of all time including the Jackson 5 and Stevie Wonder. The record company’s huge success is credited to its unique “Motown Sound,” a funky blend of horns, tambourines, hand clapping and the interplay of gospel music’s call-and- response patterns with jazz music’s improvisational be-bop style. The “Motown Sound” changed American music forever. Jack Everly, conductor Jack Everly is the Principal Pops Conductor of the Baltimore and Indianapolis Symphony Orchestras, Naples Philharmonic Orchestra and National Arts Centre Orchestra (Ottawa), and the Music Director of the National Memorial Day Concert and A Capitol Fourth on PBS.
