This week on The RockDown Show with Dustin Tatro:Roger G, manager of the Sound for the Crown tour that's been around Texas in the past few years, has upon popular request created a festival of the same name. It's taking place in Poteet, just south of San Antonio, next weekend. Roger is on this week for one segment telling about the festival and how it relates to the once again growing Christian Rock scene, especially in the Lone Star State.
We have a special New Music Feature from Relent with their new song "Think You Got It," with Gaston on to briefly tell about it. Be advised that "Last Days" is currently charting in the top ten, this is just to let folks hear something new. There's a lot of new stuff from a lot of bands coming, as well. |
In Big Picture Science: Creature Discomforts
Our animal prejudices corrected.
Okay you animals, line up: stoned sloths, playful pandas, baleful bovines, and vile vultures. We’ve got you guys pegged, thanks to central casting.
Or do we? Our often simplistic view of animals ignores their remarkable adaptive abilities. Stumbly sloths are in fact remarkably agile and a vulture’s tricks for thermoregulation can’t be found in an outdoors store.
Our ignorance about some animals can even lead to their suffering and to seemingly intractable problems. The South American nutria was brought to Louisiana to supply the fur market. But the species got loose and tens of millions of these rodents are destroying the environment. It literally has a bounty on its tail.
Hear about research that corrects a menagerie of misunderstandings about our fellow furry, feathered, and scaly animals, and how getting over ourselves to know them better can have practical benefits. Will you still recoil from termites if you learn that they are relevant to the future of robots, global warming, and smart design?
