They claim that DNA engineering made the mouse learn faster and remember longer. If we can improve learning and memory in mice, can we do the same for humans? Should we use genetics to make ourselves, our kids, and even our parents smarter? TUE - 9/21: Nuclear-Free Pacific Rim: For more than forty years, the Pacific Rim has been the most popular spot in the world for industrialized nations to test their atmospheric and underground nuclear weapons. The indigenous peoples of the region feel they are getting close to the beginning of the end for nuclear testing and nuclear weapons in general. We take you live to a nuclear-free conference on the Polynesian Island of Tahiti. WED - 9/22: Self-Determination in the South Pacific: Control over the island communities of the South Pacific have been essentially divided up between four countries; Britain, France, Germany and the United States, all of whom impose their own form of imperialistic rule. Will the chains ever be broken? Join us as we continue our coverage from Tahiti. THU - 9/23: What's Better, Being Single or Married?: Since talking about relationships always seems to be a hot topic on the show, we resurrect the issue once again. This time, we ask whether the bachelor life or the wedded life is better. Is everyone looking for the rapture and bliss that matrimony has to offer? Or are they happy staying single? FRI - 9/24: Hepatitis Did you know that hundreds of thousands of Americans are infected with hepatitis each year? Did you know some strains of hepatitis can be contracted by just touching a doorknob up to a week after the infected person contaminates it? If you would like to learn more about this disease with possible fatal consequences, tune in to the next "Wellness Edition" of Native America Calling as Sharon McConnell and her guests discuss Hepatitis. MON - 9/27: The Condition of Native American Studies: Many Native studies programs at campuses and universities are under attack. Funding is being threatened and Native educators find themselves defending and justifying their existence. Will they survive? TUE - 9/28: TBA WED - 9/29: Losing the Drug War: America has poured billions of dollars into what some say is a losing war on drugs. Should we continue to throw money at a drug program that has gone up in smoke? What are the alternatives? Guests include New Mexico Governor Gary Johnson. THU - 9/30: Book-of-the-Month: "A Peoples Ecology": Tewa author and University of New Mexico professor Greg Cajete of Santa Clara Pueblo explores sustainable living from a Native perspective through a collection of well-written modern essays. --------------------------------------- Eric Martin American Indian Radio On Satellite Director of Distribution [EMAIL PROTECTED] 402.472.3287 "Rock n' Roll is based on revolutions going way past 33 1/3." -- John Trudell, Baby Boom Che Reprinted under the Fair Use http://www4.law.cornell.edu/uscode/17/107.html doctrine of international copyright law. &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& Tsonkwadiyonrat (We are ONE Spirit) Unenh onhwa' Awayaton http://www.tdi.net/ishgooda/ UPDATES: CAMP JUSTICE http://shell.webbernet.net/~ishgooda/oglala/ &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
