Hello there. This is Jimmy Powers coming your way with another story from The Tumult and the Shouting. Hi there. This is Jimmy Powers transcribed with another highlight from the colorful life of the late and great Granny Rice's best-selling autobiography, The Tumult and the Shouting. Today, Granny tells us of his own viewpoint of the controversial home run that Babe Ruth smashed in the 1932 World Series. So, with a salute to the every young spirit of Granny, I turn the page and, in first person, take up his narrative. An argument developed in 1932 and it's been popping up intermittently ever since. It came to life again recently, just as it will for many years to come. Because it involved Babe Ruth and a World Series episode, it will probably never subside. The argument developed over the question of Babe Ruth's calling his home run against Charlie Root in the third game of the Yankee Chicago World Series. That was the year that the Yankees swept the Cubs in four straight. I figure I have a fair right to vote on this incident. I was there and saw what happened on the field. I also got first-hand information from Babe and Lou Gehrig while we played bridge on the return trip home. In the first inning with Coombs and Joe Sewell on base, Babe sailed his first home run into the bleachers. He hit Root's earnest pitching with that same easy playful swing that he had been using a few minutes before against the soft, casual service of guinea pig throwers. The ball would have fallen into the street beyond the bleachers under ordinary conditions, but dropped among the patrons in the temporary seats. As Babe trotted those bases past the Cubs dugout, he let loose some of his copyrighted remarks that never land in the family newspaper, then blew them a salute known as the Bronx Cheer. Just remember that Babe was 38 years old when the 1932 series came round. As an outfielder, he was pretty close to being past tense. All season he had been breaking this news to himself as well as the fans. Billy Jurges, the Cubs manager, hit a short fly to Babe out there in left field. He mauled it about trying for a shoestring catch, and Jurges chugged into second base. Well, that's when my old pal Babe Ruth looked like a fat man after finishing a three-legged race at an Elks picnic. It was old Babe then. In the press box, we watched as out on the field, Babe Ruth turned to Earl Coombs in center and gestured wildly, Hey, he was saying, my dogs ain't what they used to be. Don't hit him out to me. Hit him at that youngster over there. Of course, the crowd tore down the place hooting at Babe and bellering at him in contempt. Somebody in the crowd tossed a lemon which hit him on the leg. Some players, more artistically inclined, would have gone after the culprit. Some in their dignity would have ignored it. But the Babe topped the jest. With graphic gestures, old man Ruth simply called on these bleachers for fair play. If they had to toss dead fruit at him, well, please don't pitch it as tired old pins. Would they please hit him on the head instead? Well along comes this big fifth inning. The score was four to four. Joey Sewell first up was thrown out short to first. Up came Babe, swinging a full set of lumber, then tossing away the other two bats. Guy Bush, a fine cub's pitcher, was on the top step of the dugout, giving a vibrant imitation of a hog collar. Ruth laughed and gestured at Bush as if to say, wait, mug, I'm going to park one out of the lot. Ruth threw a strike past Babe and he held up his index finger to Bush. It was like waving a scarlet rug at a bull. Bush went wild. Another call strike and Bush was raving and blathering like a wild man as he heaped invective on Babe. Babe held up two fingers this time.  Then, with a warning gesture of his hand to Bush, he sent him the signal for all of Wrigley Field to see. Now he said, this is the big one, look. And that pitch went riding in the longest home run ever hit in the park. The rest is simply recorded history. The Anxiv course swept the series in four straight. Whether he meant to call a home run or not, he certainly thought he had called it just as it happened. He told the story of the player who had said to him, suppose you had struck out instead of hitting a home run. I never thought of that. The Babe said, I was only thinking about a home run. A fairly short distance from Chicago, the train came to a stop in a small city. But there were at least 5,000 people present demanding a look at the Babe. Gary and I slipped out and stood with the mob as the Babe appeared. This was a historic sight. The roar that went up when he appeared was louder than any I've ever heard. Raising his right hand aloft, he made his address. The crowd didn't want to hear any speech. It wanted to cheer. But between loud roars and applause, it listened. I remember that in his speech, the Babe denounced the Cubs and said he had called and hit the home run to avenge Mark Koenig.  So he had bowled them over. And that was one speech I'll never forget. Now this is Jimmy Powers once again. And here today is baseball's commissioner, Ford Frick, who learned his baseball as a player at DePaul University, a very fine university in Indiana. He wrote his baseball as a writer on various papers, including 12 years with the old New York Journal American. Today, with a human understanding hand, Ford Christopher Frick rules baseball as its commissioner. Ford, it's nice having you here to pull out a few of your own memories about Granny Rice, the Babe, and particularly that shot that Babe landed in Wrigley Field, Center Field Stands. Jimmy on the subject of Granny Rice, Babe Ruth, I feel I'm sort of prepared to speak, and certainly I'm interested. I don't know of any two fellows who, through the 20s and the 30s, contributed more to the pleasure of the people who were more genuinely representative of sports as we knew it or who had bigger hearts than those two chaps. Where did you meet Granny for the first time, commissioner? That's a very interesting story, Jim. When I first came to New York, I was up in the Yankee offices, then we were over on West 42nd Street along the Siegfield Theater, and I hadn't been in the office more than 10 minutes, and Granny Rice came in. Well, of course, I recognized him and knew him and was properly overcome and feeling very humble, and I never had anyone treat me better than Granny. He came over and introduced himself as if he was someone that nobody had ever heard of, made me feel that I really belonged to New York, took me out, bought me a sandwich and a cup of coffee, and told me more about riding sports in 15 minutes than any man I ever knew. He wrote about 67 million words. Now, we know what a deadline is, but we never had to meet anything like that. We did you. No, and the wonderful thing about it, Jimmy, is that in all those years and all those words, Granny had one great idea, and that was to build up rather than tear down the man who performed sports, and I think for very good reason. I think he always felt that those fellows were heroes to children, and that he didn't want to be the man who uncovered their feet of clay. And of course, he's verse, well, I've always been partial to verse and poetry. I have a feeling that Granny is going to rate us near the top of our modern American sports points. He was big in so many ways, just as the Babe was big. Commissioner, you heard Granny's testimony concerning that World Series home run that Babe Ruth called, or a lot of people thought he called, in the 32 series against the Cubs. Now, what was your impression or version of that? Well, that's one of the things that Granny and I have always argued about, Jimmy. I was out there at that World Series, as you were, of course, and at that time I was very close to Babe. I was writing his copy for him, traveling with him, with the Yankees, and I have never been convinced in my mind that the Babe did call that shot. Now, I'll tell you why. I know afterward it looked like it. He made a gesture. He held up one finger when there was one, and then he held up two fingers and sort of put his arm like that, but up the day he died, I tried two or three times to pin Babe down, and he said, well, you know what you read in the newspaper, but he never once told me that he called the shot, and I don't think it was important. Certainly it was the grand gesture, whether he did or not, and certainly there was no home run that was more dramatic or that lifted the crowd to its feet so much as that one, whether or not he called it his immaterial. Did you ever play golf with Granny Rice for it? I know you were a pretty good golfer. Oh yes, I played golf with Granny. Many times, as a matter of fact, Granny, at the time of his death, had an old putter in mind that he'd swiped out of my bag. I could never use it, but we were playing one time down in Florida.  Thank you very much, and put it in his bag, as far as I know, he still had it when he died. What impression do you think Granny will leave on the sport, the writers, and most of all, the fans? Well, I think that's entirely obvious right now, even though Granny's been gone only a short time, he has already become a tradition, and I think the reason was that the man was so... Well, first of all, he had a great flair for writing, but he was so inherently fair and so inherently decent, and so much inclined to give a break to the fellow who was having trouble. Well, I think that's a fair and a pretty intimate picture of Grantlyn Rice, and folks, that's it for today. Commissioner Ford Frick, it's been great fun reminiscing with you about Granny Rice and Babe Ruth, too irreplaceable, certainly, and thanks a lot for dropping in. Now, this is Jimmy Power's transcribe saying, so long until next time.


Took a picture of John Kennedy over on the south lawn and he had his photography and I said why'd you bring that he said oh Sidy said I'm sure you won't have film in your camera Well, mr. President what I wanted to do was as you well know just briefly Get your thoughts on the day your memories of it You know like the films and that let's start out chronologically because my hunch is that as a boy World War I was very much in your it was even in mine My father was over there and France the idea of Americans fighting in France must have been something that you dealt with as a kid. Well, I was it as a matter of fact in first grade at the time but the the fever the fervor and the Of course, if you remember it met war the great propaganda about atrocities in Belgium and so forth which were really strange and Foreign to us and so they made it tremendous impact on everyone but Yes, I grew up and I can remember as a small child aware of all of this having nightmares that They would be marching down the street. You know, I had no conception of how they would get there or anything but and Waking up thinking where would I hide if this were true and American GIs I assume in that story were Quite the heroes in your yes as a matter of fact. I remember a Troop train coming through we lived in Galesburg at the time And a troop train coming through and my mother took my brother and made down there, too as everyone went down to on the train stopped and to You know show their support for the soldiers and all the windows and the cars were open and the soldiers all waving out and I Remember my mother lifted me up and I had a penny And I handed it to a soldier for good luck And I've often wondered Who he was and if he had good luck. Yeah, that's wonderful. What then where were you at D-Day? June 6th, 1944 G. Did a then I was at my desk in the first motion picture unit of the Army Air Force Culver City We were directly that post was directly under Air Corps intelligence and we were responsible for all of the Air Corps teams Photography teams we trained them put them together and sent them all over the world every Air group did you know it was coming? Did you know the day? Yes, except that did not know that exact moment because if you remember The There was a 36 hour break in the weather on the channel Yes, and when Eisenhower got word of that He gambled and said go because other than that they didn't know how long they might have to wait And of course the longer you waited the more The enemy could be prepared and know of your preparations So we were generally aware just as we'd known that There had been an original plan much earlier I mean a year earlier and Was evidently decided Against that there was There was not agreement among the allies as we understood it, but we were in addition to all those combat camera crews then we handled all the film and the the documentaries and training film and everything else and I was I was the Executive officer of the of the base.  Do you remember that moment? That I'm trying to remember Did you listen to the radio then what what did you know? I'm quite sure that we got it Officially and probably before it was public and But I actually cannot bring to mind that That exact detail, but it was no surprise to us because as I say we we knew and that it was in the offing and we had the crews there and everything did you did it dominate your Life then for the next few hours. Oh, yes. Yes, this And as the reports would come in and as I say when the film began to arrive then after D-Day because we had access to all the film from Not only the Air Force branch, but other branches and we put together Staff reports for the general staff Like putting a newsreel together And tell me about that as well You'd watch that film go into the projection room and watch that film that was going to be edited and You'd see so many shots that people have seen since on television of the troops coming off the landing barges and heading for the beach and up the beach and I Would watch as closely as I could because knowing that this was real and they were under fire And it just used to tear you in two because you Out there and all those men you'd see the individuals that were hit go down and I Had one interesting story later after the war out of that young man from my hometown was a naval officer and He was on a ship that was picking up the wounded when they would be ferrying the wounded back out in the landing barges to the These boats offshore and he was on the bridge and down below on the deck They were pulling them aboard and he through the glasses was watching a German pillbox an artillery pillbox on the beach or up on the the bluffs and He saw them he could he could even see the range find the man with a range finder you know setting getting the range and the shot came over and landed just short of their ship and Then he watched and the second shot came and was a little long Well, that's artillery Practice you then split the difference and he knew that the third shot and he could see the man up there in the range He knew the third shot was going to be it and he said he just had an irresistible desire to put the glasses down and tell the men down on deck never mind and While he was watching and feeling that I'm thinking that the pillbox Disappeared our cruisers behind them offshore shelling got a direct hit and the third shot never came Did you have any relatives or any other special friends involved? Well friends, but yeah No, no relatives. He have you been back there at all. Have you gone to Norm? I've seen the beach since the war. No and Nancy has I will I Some years ago when I was there and went across France landed at Calais Not too far from all of this, but Nancy visited when we were over there for the summit The ex I went down with her on that very moving. I know it's going to be and I've had letters from A letter from a young girl whose father didn't die there Came home But she told me so eloquently in the letter how it was the most Significant moment in her father's life and so all the time from a child up She remembers the stories that he would tell including his own feelings about that day and he died a few years ago of cancer and She and her family just feel that They must go there Now and see that place that meant so much to you Is there any particular one of the beaches or spots that you are interested in that that you want to see especially? No, there are so many great and heroic stories about all of them that I don't suppose you can see them all but You know Omaha Beach, of course was the the one that seemed to Linger most in everyone's mind But then the other spots the one where the Rangers climbed those sheer lefts under fire Yeah Something what did you have any feelings at that time about Franklin Roosevelt as the man that ordered this You know when you were in when you heard of the D-Day and the whole operation the president's role in it Well, you at that time I was a New Deal Democrat and I Thought that he was a great war leader when we were once we were in there and So I I had no criticism of any kind I see what's your sense now sitting here in the office Looking back. I think you said the other day at Arlington or someplace that we that this sort of thing won't happen again hopefully But as a president that would have to order that kind of an immense Assault by armed forces. Do you have any other thoughts? from this perspective well, yes and yet the how Inevitable it seemed to become that we had no choice But to become involved and then of course the Japanese Took care of that with the Pearl Harbor attack But at the same time I remember this about him and all fairness when Hitler first was rattling the saber and Doing the things and there was the great controversy Should we take him seriously or not? 1938 I believe it was that Roosevelt made a speech in Chicago and in that speech he called for What we would call the free world to Quarantine Nazi Germany to close its borders to any kind of contact even to a phone call To simply seal them off until they would agree to join the the other nations in disarming and Stopping and settling the disputes without conflict and He was so assailed for that speech So criticized for it that you now you look back and see isn't this some of the same thing that we talk about today and that we've not as much so with regard to any possible threat, but You say had we done that There wouldn't have been a world war two So many places along that route that had we others taken action and by the same terms their tone he He was Begging his own Congress. It was his so it wasn't partisan. He was begging for more of a build-up and when you stop to think that was only days before the Pearl Harbor that Congress Retained the draft and I think it was by only one vote that they were trying to even cancel the draft. I know that some of our Military men when they could talk to their counterparts in Japan Asked them why Pearl Harbor And the Japanese said why not I said we didn't think you'd fight You were having your great Louisiana maneuvers the biggest war games. I think we've ever had And he said some of your soldiers were carrying wooden guns and you used cardboard tanks to simulate armoured war Armoured warfare. What's your feeling any any sense of this now as again as president the difficulty In this office of ordering men and particularly like D-Day so many in such a tough fight so far away. Oh this must be The most heartbreaking thing that anyone could ever have to do We know the story about Ike visiting the paratroopers the night before and that he was crying when After that when they climbed aboard the planes and flew out but I've often wondered sometimes if The deaths that we've had among so many in high command positions in the military And so many of them Seem to be heart Problems and you wonder if that couldn't be from the stress and then afterward to live with the thought of Maybe second-guessing and wondering Had you done all you could do to To minimize casualties. I don't know but I've wondered that sometimes How does this compare do you think D-Day in terms of our nation's history? Rank with our military efforts and just the big events in our national life. Oh, I think it is a There's no question about the magnitude of of that That war and that operation. I don't know of any other war that quite reached the Dimensions no war reached the dimensions of that one that truly was a world war and we were fighting on across both oceans and That operation It was necessary it had to be done. Have you seen the movie the longest day? Yes Ryan movie of some time ago. Yeah Oh Which was fairly graphic I think oh, yes kind of it any Lastly any going to do anything special other than the ceremony over there? No Just it's at several places. They've at least we are getting to the various spots No, I'm looking forward to it all on it. I Know I'll probably have trouble getting through it. I see again one of those very emotional time I found myself getting unable to speak at the recent ceremony for the unknown soldier You you know You see the veterans today, and I think of our young people. I once said to Bob Hope that he has all that film from all those Trips that he made and I said Bob, did you ever think about Putting all of that together just so that kids today could see kids of Yesteryear they you know, no one ever thinks their parents are young and So you see today the the veterans and so forth and it's impossible for young people particularly to visualize them as young people and I Always remember what George Marshall said about them Someone asked him if we had any secret weapon And he said yes the best damn kids in the world Great on that note. Mr. President. Thank you. I'll see you there


What is a green job? The green job doesn't have to be working just simply in the environment, but it does actually have to be about creating the economy, which is not about consuming energy, but which is about using our talent and our expertise.  Well, that's just nonsense actually. What is this? This is some sort of monopoly over an idea. It's not something that the greens take a patent over. This is nonsense. Do the greens and labour have beef? Have what beef? Are you kind of grumpy with one another? No, no, not at all.


Good evening. I'm Herman Hansen, and something like this was bound to happen sooner or later. Iran de Lerar is taking the night off. I will be filling in, or at least attempting to.  The United States launched airstrikes in Syria on Thursday, targeting facilities near the Iraqi border used by Iranian-backed militia groups. The Pentagon said the strikes were a retaliation for a rocket attack in Iraq earlier this month that killed one civilian contractor and wounded a U.S. service member and other coalition troops. The airstrike was the first military action undertaken by the Biden administration, which in its first weeks has emphasized its intent to put more focus on the challenges posed by China, even as Middle East threats persist. Biden's decision to attack in Syria did not appear to signal an intention to widen U.S. military involvement in the region, but rather to demonstrate a will to defend U.S. troops in Iraq. I'm confident in the target that we went after. We know what we hit, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin told reporters flying with him from California to Washington. Speaking shortly after the airstrikes he added, we're confident that the target was being used by the same Shia militants that conducted the strikes, referring to a February 15 rocket attack in northern Iraq that killed one civilian contractor and wounded a U.S. service member and other coalition personnel. Austin said he recommended the action to Biden. We said a number of times that we will respond on our timeline, Austin said. We wanted to be sure of the connectivity and we wanted to be sure that we had the right targets. Earlier, Pentagon spokesman John Kirby said the U.S. action was a proportionate military response taken together with diplomatic measures, including consultation with coalition partners. The operation sends an unambiguous message. President Biden will act to protect American and coalition personnel, Kirby said. At the same time, we have acted in a deliberate manner that aims to de-escalate the overall situation in eastern Syria and Iraq. Kirby said the U.S. airstrikes destroyed multiple facilities at a border control point used by a number of Iranian-backed militant groups, including Khatib Hezbollah and Khatib Said al-Shwanda. The U.S. has blamed Khatib Hezbollah for numerous attacks targeting U.S. personnel and interests in Iraq in the past. Further details were not immediately available. Mary Ellen O'Connell, a professor at Notre Dame Law School, criticized the U.S. attack as a violation of international law. The United Nations Charter makes absolutely clear that the use of military force on the territory of a foreign sovereign state is lawful only in response to an armed attack on the defending state for which the target state is responsible, she said. None of those elements is met in the serious strike. Biden administration officials condemned the February 15th rocket attack near the city of Irbil in Iraq's semi-autonomous Kurdish-run region, but as recently as this week officials indicated they had not determined for certain who carried it out. Officials have noted that in the past Iranian-backed Shiite militia groups have been responsible for numerous rocket attacks that targeted U.S. personnel or facilities in Iraq. Kirby had said Tuesday that Iraq is in charge of investigating the February 15th attack. Right now we're not able to give you a certain attribution as to who was behind these attacks, what groups, and I'm not going to get into the tactical details of every bit of weapon we used here, Kirby said. Let's let the investigations complete and conclude, and then when we have more to say, we will. A little-known Shiite militant group calling itself Saraya-U-Aula al-Da'am, Arabic for Guardians of Blood Brigade, claimed responsibility for the February 15th attack. A week later, a rocket attack in Baghdad's green zone appeared to target the U.S. embassy compound, but no one was hurt. Iran this week said it has no links to the Guardians of Blood Brigade. The frequency of attacks by Shiite militia groups against U.S. targets in Iraq diminished late last year ahead of President Joe Biden's inauguration, though now Iran is pressing America to return to Tehran's 2015 nuclear deal. The U.S., under the previous Trump administration, blamed Iran-backed groups for carrying out the attacks. Tensions soared after a Washington-directed drone strike that killed top Iranian general Qassam Soleimani and powerful Iraqi militia leader Abu Mahdi al-Mahandas late last year. Trump had said the death of a U.S. contractor would be a red line and provoke U.S. escalation in Iraq. The December 2019 killing of a U.S. civilian contractor in a rocket attack in Kirkuk sparked a tit for tat fight on Iraqi soil that brought the country to the brink of a proxy war. U.S. forces have been significantly reduced in Iraq to 2,500 personnel and no longer partake in combat missions with Iraqi forces in ongoing operations against the Islamic State Group. The Democratic-led House passed a bill Thursday that would enshrine LGBTQ protections in the nation's labor and civil rights laws, a top priority of President Joe Biden, though the legislation faces an uphill battle in the Senate. The bill passed by a vote of 224 to 206, with three Republicans joining Democrats in voting yes. The Equality Act amends existing civil rights law to explicitly include sexual orientation and gender identification as protected characteristics. The protections would extend to employment, housing, loan applications, education, public accommodations, and other areas. Supporters say the law before the House on Thursday is long overdue and would ensure that every person is treated equally under the law. The LGBT community has waited long enough, said Representative David Cicilline, Democrat of Rhode Island, who is gay, and the bill's lead sponsor. The time has come to extend the blessings of liberty and equality to all Americans regardless of who they are and who they love. Republicans broadly opposed the legislation. They echoed concerns from religious groups and social conservatives who worry the bill would force people to take actions that contradict their religious beliefs. They warned that faith-based adoption agencies seeking to place children with a married mother and father could be forced to close, or that private schools would have to hire staff whose conduct violates tenants of the school's faith. This is unprecedented. It's dangerous. It's an attack on our first freedom. The first freedom listed in the Bill of Rights, religious liberty, said Representative Mike Johnson, Republican of Louisiana. The House passed the Equality Act in the last Congress with unanimous Democratic support and the backing of eight Republicans. But Donald Trump's White House opposed the measure and it was not considered in the Senate where 60 votes will be needed to overcome procedural hurdles. Democrats are trying to revive it now that they have control of Congress and the White House, but passage still appears unlikely in the evenly divided Senate. This time, Republican representatives Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania and John Katko and Tom Reed of New York sided with Democrats in voting for the bill. The Supreme Court provided the LGBTQ community with a resounding victory last year in a six-to-three ruling that said the Civil Rights Act of 1964 applied to LGBTQ workers when it comes to barring discrimination on the basis of sex. Civil rights groups have encouraged Congress to follow up that decision and ensure that anti-bias protections addressing such areas as housing, public accommodations and public services are applied in all 50 states. Biden made clear his support for the Equality Act in the lead up to last year's election saying it would be one of his first priorities.  It's been personal since my baby sister came out to me almost 40 years ago, Scanlon said. For many people all across this country and across this house, that is when the fight hits home. Leaders at the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops wrote lawmakers this week to say they had grave concerns about the bill. Among the concerns they raised is that the bill would expand the government's definition of public places, forcing church halls and equivalent facilities to host functions that violate their beliefs, which could lead to closing their doors to the broader community. Republicans cited an array of consequences they said could occur if the bill passed into law, from eliminating the existing ban on the use of government funds for abortion, to allowing transgender people into women's shelters, and transgender youth into girls' sports. Democrats likened the effort to past civil rights battles in the nation's history. Siciline challenged Republicans. I hope you will bear in mind how your vote will be remembered years from now. Some of the nation's largest corporations are part of a coalition in support of the legislation, including Apple Inc., AT&T, Chevron, and 3M Co., just to name a few of the hundreds of companies that have endorsed it. After the vote advocacy groups weighed in, with the human rights campaign describing the vote as bringing us closer to ensuring that every person is treated equally under the law. Meanwhile, the conservative alliance defending freedom called on the Senate to reject this dangerous bill for the good of all Americans. The number of monarch butterflies that showed up at their winter resting grounds in Central Mexico decreased by about 26 percent this year, and four times as many trees were lost to illegal logging, drought, and other causes, making 2020 a bad year for the butterflies. The Government Commission for Natural Protected Areas said the butterfly's population covered only 2.1 hectares in 2020 compared to the 2.8 hectares the previous year, and about one-third of the 6.05 hectares detected in 2018. Because the monarchs cluster so densely in pine infertories, it is easier to count them by area rather than by individuals. Gloria Tvera, the Regional Director of Mexico's Commission for National Protected Areas, blamed the drop on extreme climate conditions, the loss of milkweed habitat in the United States and Canada on which the butterflies depend, and deforestation in the butterflies' wintering grounds in Mexico. Illegal logging in the monarch's wintering grounds rose to almost 13.4 hectares, a huge increase from the .43 hectare lost to logging last year. Jorge Ricards of the WWF Environmental Group acknowledged that the lost trees were a blow, but said the logging is very localized in three or four of the mountain communities that make up the butterfly reserve. In addition, windstorms, drought, and the felling of trees that had fallen victim to pine beetles or disease caused the loss of another 6.9 hectares in the reserve, bringing the forest loss in 2020 to 20.65 hectares. That compares to an overall loss of about 5 hectares from all causes the previous year. Tvera said the drought was affecting the butterflies themselves, as well as the pine infertories where they clumped together for warmth. The severe drought we are experiencing is having effect, Tvera said. All the forests in the reserve are under water stress. The forests are dry. The butterflies are looking for water on the lower slopes near the houses, she noted. Tvera also expressed concern about the severe winter storms in Texas, which the butterflies will have to cross and feed and lay their eggs on their way back to their northern summer homes in coming months. This is a cost for worry, Tvera said, referring to whether the monarchs will find enough food and habitat after the winter freeze. It was also a bad year for the mountain farming communities that depend for part of their income on tourists who visit the reserves. Because of the coronavirus pandemic, visits fell from around 490,000 last year to just 80,000 in the 2020-2021 season. Environmentalist and writer Homero Ardeas, who grew up around the reserve, said the decline in butterflies and rise in logging was not surprising given the reduction in Mexican government funding for protected natural areas and environmental work. While the reserves were close to tourism during practically the whole winter season, the way was open for loggers with no control, Ardeas said. The question is, can the monarch migration survive this environmental negligence? The U.S. Group Center for Food Safety called for the monarchs to be granted endangered species protection, noting that the minimum population threshold needed to be out of the danger zone of extinction is six hectares. It was unclear whether the drop in tourism income contributed to the increased logging. Ricard said there has long been pressure on the area's forests from people who want to open land for planting crops. Felipe Martinez-Mesa, director of the Butterfly Reserve, said there have been attempts to plant orchards of avocados, hugely profitable for farmers in the area. In the buffer zones around the reserve, the high mountain peaks where the butterflies' clumpen trees are probably a bit above the altitude where avocado trees like to grow, Martinez-Mesa said. But the buffer zones provide protection and support for the higher areas, and he said more must be done to combat the change in land use. Frequently, illegal logging is carried out by outsiders or organized gangs and not by the farm communities that technically own the land. The butterflies hit a low of just 0.67 hectares in 2013-2014. Loss of habitat, especially the milkweed where the monarchs lay their eggs, pesticide and herbicide use, as well as climate change all pose threats to the species migrations. While there was plenty of bad news for the butterflies, very few showed up to some historic wintering sites like Sierra Chincua. There was the welcome news that a new wintering site was discovered nearby, in the mountaintop near the Lagunas de Simpuala Protected Area near Mexico City. Tavares said the wintering site had always been there, but was so difficult to reach that it wasn't discovered until earlier this month. Well, the abs are at it again. How about them Broncos? And now for sports. Days after marking a solemn milestone in the pandemic, President Joe Biden is celebrating the pace of his efforts to end it. On Thursday, Biden marked the administration of the 50 millionth dose of COVID-19 vaccine since his swearing in. The moment came days after the nation reached the devastating milestone of 500,000 coronavirus deaths and ahead of a meeting with the nation's governors on plans to speed the distribution even further. The more people get vaccinated, the faster we're going to beat this pandemic, Biden said at the White House ceremony, noting that his administration is on course to exceed his promise to deliver 100 million shots in his first 100 days in office. We're halfway there, 50 million shots in 37 days, Biden said. That's weeks ahead of schedule. All told, more than 45 million Americans have been administered at least one dose of the approved vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna since they received approval from the Food and Drug Administration in December, with more than 20 million receiving both required doses. As part of the ceremony, four frontline workers, a pair of emergency medical technicians, a school counselor, and a grocery store worker received vaccine doses on live television, part of the White House's efforts to build confidence in the vaccination program. Biden predicts that by late spring there will be enough vaccine to administer to anyone that wants it, but that hesitance of the vaccine will limit the number of people who want it. We'll have the vaccine waiting, Biden said, predicting that point could come within 60 to 90 days. He promised a massive campaign to educate people about the safety and efficacy of the vaccines in hopes of stimulating demand as the nation aims to vaccinate about 80% of adults to reach herd immunity and end the pandemic. Biden said he planned to tour U.S. military run mass vaccination site in Houston on Friday, one of several ways his administration is aiming to speed injections, particularly once supply increases. Biden noted that the promise of a third vaccine receiving approval as soon as this weekend as Johnson and Johnson's single dose candidate undergoes review by the FDA. We have a plan to roll it out as quickly as Johnson and Johnson can make it, Biden said. Meeting with governors, Biden appealed for their help in passing his $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan, which provides funding to expand vaccination and testing as well as economic relief for people struggling during the pandemic. The economic toll of this pandemic continues to tear through the country as brutally as the virus itself, Biden said. Biden also warned that variants could continue to spread, leading to more cases and hospitalizations. He appealed to Americans to keep up with social distancing measures and wear face coverings. This is not the time to relax, he said. And today I'm very excited to announce the rollout of our new cooking feature segment, which we are calling the Cooking Segment. Today our very special culinary celebrity from nowhere in particular is the highly acclaimed Chef Goop. Please welcome Chef Goop. Everybody, Chef Goop. Hello, I am Chef Goop. I am from absolutely nowhere. Chef Goop, welcome to the show. Thank you, it is your honor to have me. And what will you be making for us today? Today I will be making my signature dish. And what is that? It's Goop. It's Goop. I'm Chef Goop. I'm making the Goop.  It's a possibility. So, what goes on making of your Goop, Chef Goop? A depressed ingredient is the milk from the lactating, spermy whale. Whales milk. Fascinating. That's not exactly readily available. How do you, why? Well, of course, you must yourself obtain. One must venture forth into the endless majesty of the open sea. And one must address the animal in the language of the whale, which I myself have taught to myself. And one must say, which these are mean. Hello, Mrs. Whale, who is the currently lactating. May I please have the honor to be the squeezing of the ginormous whale, Boob. And then if you should be the purist of heart she, the reply of, Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. Which they meaning yes, o'est thou, of purist culinary intent, thou mayest suckle upon my ginormous whale, Boob. The point at which one must make the haste to the latching on, remind you, the nibble of the whale is quite large, the size of a man. So, very difficult to latch on, but once done, it's who we easily, the mother lord, so much milk shall come forth. I see, and what is the flavor profile of whale's milk? Well, of course, in the open sea, it is impossible to isolate from the brine, so in fact, it does ensure the taste like cheese, salty cheese. Okay, so let's go ahead and have you prepare the food? Yes, and now for the preparation of the whale's milka kupa. Are we cooking? Cooking a kook, kook, kook, kook, kook, kook, so much a kook. Kook biddi kook, biddi kook, a kook biddi kook, biddi kook, biddi kook, biddy kook, biddi kook, biddy kook, biddy kook, biddy kook, biddy kook, biddy kook, biddy kook, biddy kook, biddy kook, biddy kook! It is a prepared! And now, Mr. Hansen, you may come back, and you may taste.  It's like, It's like if you made a milkshake out of rancid milk, and then poured salt in it, and then put it in a blender with rotten fish and drank it, and then you threw up, it's like that's what your mouth would taste like. Oh yes, that is the general profile. It's a required taste.  See that door?   Oh yes, yes, of course I leave, but first I curse you in the language of the whale. I tell you, and what does that mean? It means, please, the Mrs. Electrifying Whale, may I please do a squeezing danger enormous whale? Boom. It's all I know. I'm so sorry, ladies and gentlemen, that will never, ever happen again. And now let's get back to the news. Good evening. I'm Herman Hansen, and nothing bad will ever happen again. You know what's weird is I actually kind of find myself sort of craving this stuff. Hasbro created Confusion Thursday when it announced that it would drop the Mr. from the brand's name in order to be more inclusive and so all could feel welcome in the potato head world. It also said it would sell a new play set this fall without the Mr. and Mrs. designations that will let kids create their own type of potato families, including two moms or two dads. But in a tweet later that afternoon, Hasbro clarified that the Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head characters will still live on and be sold in stores, but under the Potato Head brand. In a picture posted on Twitter, the Mr. and Mrs. names are less prominently displayed at the bottom of the box instead of the top. While it was announced today that the Potato Head brand name and logo are dropping the Mr., I am proud to confirm that Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head aren't going anywhere and will remain Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head, the company tweeted. This is hard news. The tweet came after news of the brand's name change exploded on Twitter with people asking if Barbie will change her name next. I think Hasbro needs to drop the bro and just be Has, another person tweeted. Hasbro appears to want to have it both ways, expand the brand while not killing off its most iconic characters, which appeared in the Toy Story films. They are looking to broaden the franchise, said Robert Pasikoff, founder of marketing consultancy brand Keys. You take the focus of what is essentially one character and now allow it to be a platform for many characters. Kimberly Boyd, a senior vice president at Hasbro, said the intention of the brand name change was to be more inclusive and have the characters still live within the Potato Head universe. It created a lot of excitement, she said about the reaction. GLAAD, an LGBTQ advocacy group, applauded the more inclusive potato play set. Hasbro was helping kids to simply see toys as toys, which encourages them to be their authentic selves outside of the pressures of traditional gender norms, said Rich Ferraro, GLAAD's chief communications officer in a statement. Many toy makers have been updating their classic brands in recent years, hoping to relate to today's kids and reflect more modern families. IT'S A POTATO, said Ali Mersowitzky, editor-in-chief at a toy review site, The Toy Insider, about the new play set. But kids like to see themselves in the toys they are playing with. Barbie, for example, has tried to shed its blonde image, and now comes in multiple skin tones and body shapes. The Thomas the Tank Engine toy line added more girl characters, and American girl is now selling a boy doll. Mr. Potato had first hit the toy scene in 1952, when it didn't even come with a plastic potato. Kids had to supply their own vegetable to poke eyes, a nose, or a mustache into. I had that one when I was a kid. Anyway, Hasbro, which also makes Monopoly and My Little Pony, bought the brand and eventually added the plastic spud. And that's all we have time for today. For Puppet News, I'm Hector Herman. Good night.


Builders working in Moscow are recruited for war through threats. United Kingdom Defense Intelligence suggests that Moscow has begun to require building companies to provide volunteers to participate in the war against Ukraine, threatening to terminate contracts. Moscow city authorities are likely to threaten building firms with termination of contracts if they do not fulfill quotas and do not find volunteers among employees to participate in the war against Ukraine, according to the Intelligence Report. One company was allegedly ordered to find 30 volunteers by the end of August. Such measures are likely to primarily affect representatives of national minorities from poorer regions of Russia, since there are many among those who work in the building industry in the capital. UK Defense Intelligence believes that these measures are most likely being carried out with the tacit consent of the mayor of Moscow who had previously tried to minimize the impact of the war on wealthier Moscowites but at the same time demonstrate support for the war. A previous review noted that Russia's average losses during the months of a full-scale war against Ukraine has been estimated at about 400 soldiers per day.


In this short video, I'm going to demonstrate how to create a data set in Desmos and then how to create a polynomial regression for that data set. So this should be helpful when students are creating their math and music representation and then creating a function to represent that. So this is the data set that corresponds to these two measures of music and the math and music lesson. So I'd like to create a data set for these points and then I'm going to try to create a polynomial function that will represent this data and then we'll define that polynomial function on a subset of the real line on the interval from 0 to 7. So the first thing I want to do is go to Desmos and then click on the plus symbol up here add item and choose table and here x1 and y1 are going to represent my data set. So I'm going to type in all the x coordinates for my data set and I'm going to type in all the y coordinates for my data set and you can see over here that Desmos has created that graph of those data points. So I'm going to go here to the second slot. I'm going to type in a couple of commands, a command that will ask Desmos to create a polynomial regression for these data points. So as you can tell up here that Desmos has called these x1 and y1, I'm going to use y and then I'm going to type the number one and it automatically makes it a subscript. And then I'm going to type the tilde, which is the symbol, to ask for the regression. So this is where I might decide I want a third degree polynomial and so I need the coefficients of the third degree term, the second degree term, etc. And I'm going to use the lower case letters a, b, c, and d. So I'm going to type a x1 raised to the third power plus bx1 raised to the second power plus cx1 plus d. And Desmos has created this polynomial with these coefficients to approximate this data set. So the next thing I want to do is I want to define a function, call it f of x, and it will be the third degree polynomial with these coefficients. So it will be a x to the third plus bx to the second plus cx plus d. And then I want to define a new function g of x, which is f of x, but only defined on the interval from 0 to 7. So I'm going to define g of x is equal to f of x. And the way you limit the domain of the function is to use curly braces. I'm going to type in 0 is less than or equal to x is less than or equal to 7. Close the curly brace. And you can see that this blue function is my function f of x with a domain limited. I can turn off the f of x and the regression model, the original regression model, and you can see that this is just that function defined on the interval from 0 to 7. So if you wanted to create a polynomial regression that's of higher degree, say x to the fifth, you could do the same thing in this particular command up here. You would type in y1 tilde and then you'd use some other, you need some more letters in here, but you could say ax to the fifth plus bx to the fourth plus the x squared, etc. And then Desmos would create that model. And then the rest of this is similar in terms of how you would define a new function and then limit the domain of that function.
