D-Day Operations 6 mins - "...if you've seen the film Saving Private Ryan, you'll know that for the men in the first waves, particularly on the American sector called Omaha Beach, it felt nothing like success. It was a terrifying maelstrom of chaos and death. All the careful planning, specially designed vehicles, and months of training couldn't save the thousands of men who lost their lives that morning. Planes dropped 13,000 bombs before the landing: they completely missed their targets; intense naval bombardment still failed to destroy German emplacements. The result was, Omaha Beach became a horrific killing zone, with the wounded left to drown in the rising tide….

DACA Program Discussion 29 mins - It’s been 17 years since Sens. Orrin G. Hatch (R-Utah) and Richard J. Durbin (D-Ill.) introduced the Dream Act, proposed legislation that would provide legal protections to undocumented immigrants who were brought to theUnited States as children. Since then, the Dream Act has had countless ups and downs.PresidentsGeorge W. Bush and Barack Obama tried, and failed, to shepherd a bill through Congress that would give legal status to so-called dreamers. The latest salvo in the Dream Act debate came last month, when Democrats forced a three-day government shutdown to pressure Republicanson a long-term solution for dreamers. That power play eventually brought a few days of debate in the Senate, butby the end of this week, none of several dreamer-related billshad gainedenough traction to get past the chamber….On this episode of Can He Do That, we ask the question: Can President Donald Trump force Congress tosettle on a long-term bill for dreamers?

We talk to The Post's immigration reporter Maria Sacchetti, who tells the story of the genesis of the Dream Act in the early 2000s. We hear from Jen Olson, who helped Sen. Lindsey O. Graham (R-S.C.) try to pass a bill to help dreamers in 2007. And Post congressional reporter Ed O’Keefe offers insight on why — despite the congressional gridlock — Trump may yet stand in a strong position to come up with long-term legislation that has eluded dreamers for nearly two decades. Ultimately, I don't think he wants to be the president held responsible for deporting hundreds of thousands if not millions of people who are clearly contributing to society, O’Keefe said.

Dakota Access Pipeline 57 mins - At the Sacred Stone Camp, near the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation In North Dakota, thousands of people from more than 200 Native American tribes have joined the protest against a pipeline that would carry crude oil from the Dakotas through Iowa to Illinois. And more demonstrations have emerged across the country this week. They say the project would damage drinking water and sacred ground. The Texas company behind the pipeline says it poses no risk, and a judge ruled last week that the stakeholders went beyond their legal obligations to get approval for it. Meanwhile, an order from the Obama administration has halted construction of the pipeline around certain waterways near the reservation. The controversy has sparked a renewed conversation over how energy projects are approved—and who is involved in the process. What’s next for the Dakota Access Pipeline and how infrastructure decisions are made in the U.S. (5 guests) At the link you can listen, but not download; however, a copy is included in the blog archive.

Dakota Access Pipeline 5 mins - For weeks, members of the Standing Rock Sioux have gathered in Cannonball, North Dakota standing against what's known as the Dakota Access pipeline. The 1,172-mile pipeline is a $3.7 billion dollar project that would carry about 470,000 barrels of crude oil a day from North Dakota to Illinois. Its route would take the pipeline under the Missouri River, just upstream from the Standing Rock reservation, and Sioux tribal members say this would threaten their drinking water and sacred sites. Hundreds of other tribes in the US and Canada have pledged support for the Sioux nation, and thousands of activists have traveled to North Dakota to stand with them. It's considered one of the largest Native American movements in recent history, and president of the Native American Journalists Association Jason Begay finds it quite remarkable. ...The project has been overseen by the US Army Corps of Engineers. Last Friday, a federal judge ruled against the Sioux nation's attempt to stop the work — but immediately after that ruling, the US government ordered construction on the pipeline to halt temporarily. The Army will not authorize constructing the Dakota Access pipeline on Corps land bordering or under Lake Oahe until it can determine whether it will need to reconsider any of its previous decisions regarding the Lake Oahe site under the National Environmental Policy Act or other federal laws, the order said. Therefore, construction of the pipeline on Army Corps land bordering or under Lake Oahe will not go forward at this time....For the first month or so of the movement people relied entirely on Facebook updates to see what’s been going on, Begay said, and only recently has the case gotten mainstream media attention. Supporters who can’t make it to North Dakota have been using the hashtag #NoDAPL to show their opposition to the project… At the link right-click the down-pointing arrow and select Save Link As from the pop-up menu.

Dakota Pipeline Protest 14 mins - On Sunday, the Army Corps of Engineers refused to issue a permit for the Dakota Access Pipeline.

Dakota Pipeline Protest 47 mins - "The Governor of North Dakota has ordered the Standing Rock Sioux tribe and other Native American Dakota Access Pipeline protestors to evacuate from the federal land where many have been camped out since last summer. The protestors face blizzard conditions but have, so far, refused to move. At issue is a nearly completed 1,100 mile pipeline designed to carry oil from northwestern North Dakota to Illinois. It’s slated to tunnel under a lake less than a mile from the Standing Rock Sioux reservation which, protestors contend, poses a threat to their water supply. An update on the protest and its political implications. (5 guests) At the link you can listen, but not download; however, a copy is included in the blog archive.

Dakota Pipeline Protest 5 mins - It started last April with two people from the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation in North Dakota praying in a teepee for others to come and help fight an oil pipeline they believed would threaten their land and water. And come they did — climate activists, social justice groups, Black Lives Matter, Native people from around the world and just down the road. Today the flags of nearly 300 tribes fly over a protest camp called Seven Council Fires, the epicenter of the growing fight over the Dakota Access oil pipeline. …Their collective target is a nearly $4 billion pipeline that would carry oil from North Dakota’s Bakken fields to Illinois, with a capacity to transport as much as 570,000 barrels of oil a day. All that oil could have a big impact on the climate — it would increase emissions by the equivalent of 29.5 new coal-fired power plants, said Kandi Mossett of the Indigenous Environmental Network — but for Native people here the fight is mainly about protecting sacred sites and the water of the Missouri River….You have a blockade across a state highway, Cass County Sheriff Paul Laney told protesters gathered at the site along State Highway 1806 on Oct. 26. You’ve occupied private land. You’re forcing our hand.… More than 50 protesters were treated for injuries and the arrested had numbers written on their arms. Most were held in Bismarck for hours, barefoot, in chain-link cages resembling dog kennels. … Meanwhile, construction on the pipeline continues. Drone footage taken by opponents this week shows it has nearly reached the Missouri River. And backers say there’s no reason to hold it up….They got a break recently when the US Army Corps of Engineers put a hold on the key Missouri River crossing next to the reservation.

Dalai Lama 72 mins - Though he holds no official worldly rank, the Dalai Lama is widely seen as one of the most insightful leaders of the modern era.

Dam Maintenance 4 mins - "New Hampshire’s deteriorating roads and bridges - and how to invest in them - are major questions for lawmakers this year. But whatever the funding, one critical piece of the state’s infrastructure – private dams – likely won’t see a penny. New Hampshire’s dams received a C- in this year’s infrastructure report card. That’s par for the course - most of the state’s infrastructure got the same rating, or worse. But most of the state’s infrastructure is taken care of by the state. Most dams are on their own. Like the old dam at Moeckel Pond in Windham. When we get over to the spillway here, Young gestures to the cement structure spanning a small brook, you’ll be able to actually see the rocks through the concrete, where it’s thin and chipped.

Dam Removals 30 mins - Large hydro-electric dams continue to be planned and built in Africa, Asia and South America. In Western Europe and the US they're tearing them down. Peter Gibbs wants to know why. These wonders of engineering are a symbol of our ability to harness nature to produce renewable energy. The trouble is that many dams radically alter the natural life of rivers and harm their ecosystems. The majority of rivers in Europe and the US have dams on them, many of which are aging and no longer serve any useful purpose. Gradually the conversation is changing and communities are realising that dams don't have to be forever. Now there's a growing movement to remove the worst offenders and restore rivers to their natural state. France is currently embarking on the biggest dam removal in Europe. Two large hydro-electric dams will soon be demolished on the River Sélune in Normandy. Here a choice had to be made between energy production and biodiversity. Peter Gibbs meets the different groups involved in the project to find out how they are planning for the removals. Will the opening up of wild salmon migration routes and improvements in water quality make up for the loss of low-carbon energy?

Damian Lewis 35 mins - Kirsty Young's castaway this week is the actor, Damian Lewis. As part of the wave of British talent that's crashed onto America's shores in recent years his impact has made a deep impression on the creative landscape. His role as Sergeant Brodie in Homeland saw him win both an Emmy and Golden Globe and along with Band of Brothers, The Forsyte Saga and a long list of other credits, he now ranks as one of our most well recognised and highly regarded performers. Things didn't always look so peachy: aged 11, and in the school production of Princess Ida, he forgot the entire third act and stood mute in front of a packed auditorium. Tellingly, rather than scuttling into the wings with shame he soldiered on and by 16 he knew performing was, more than anything, what he wanted to do. He says, I am a person who is ambitious. I'm ambitious to get the very best from every moment and even if that's just taking my children to the zoo ... I want it to be the best it can be.

Dark Energy 49 mins - Dr. Michael Turner makes a big bang in the world of theoretical cosmology. Translation: He’s an expert on the universe—what it’s made of, what’s in its future, and how it came to be. Turner is the Rauner Distinguished Service Professor and Director of the Kavli Institute for Cosmological Physics at the University of Chicago. From 2003 until 2006, was Assistant Director for Mathematical and Physical Sciences for the National Science Foundation. He is the recipient of numerous awards and prizes, and he is a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS). Turner is most well-known for having coined the phrase dark energy in 1998, which he calls very, very mysterious stuff. Thought to comprise 70 percent of the universe, dark energy is responsible for both the expansion of the universe and the increasing speed at which that expansion is occurring.

Dark Matter 31 mins - "In 1933, Swiss astronomer Fritz Zwicky published a paper inferring the existence of what he called dunkle Materie, or dark matter. It was decades before this theory was taken seriously by the scientific community, but today the idea that the universe is filled with vast quantities of mysterious stuff that we can’t see and have never detected directly is considered mainstream science. But how has the world of science progressed in recent times? And does dark matter represent anything more than a proxy for our misinterpretation of the laws of gravity? To help reveal what we do know about dark matter, Hannah Devin is joined in the studio by University College London astrophysicist Dr Andrew Pontzen. We also hear from Dr Peter Capak of the Nasa/JPL Spitzer Science Center at the California Institute of Technology, who is part of a consortium hoping to probe the nature of dark matter by mapping 30 billion galaxies in 2019. And finally, from Dr Sarah Malik of Imperial College London, who is a part of a team at the Large Hadron Collider hoping to detect the undetectable.

Dark Matter 40 mins - Melvyn Bragg and his guests discuss dark matter, the mysterious and invisible substance which is believed to make up most of the Universe. In 1932 the Dutch astronomer Jan Oort noticed that the speed at which galaxies moved was at odds with the amount of material they appeared to contain. He hypothesized that much of this 'missing' matter was simply invisible to telescopes. Today astronomers and particle physicists are still fascinated by the search for dark matter and the question of what it is.

Data Dilemma 12 mins - At last month’s London Book Fair special presentation on The Data Dilemma, Sybil Wong, Ph.D., Head of Marketing and Communications for Sparrho, called attention to the irrelevance crisis facing researchers in the lab and on campus. 208,000 new articles are published every month, though a typical researcher only reads about 22 articles per month – just over 0.0001% of new publications, said Wong. In such a dark ocean of information, discoveries important to the researcher’s own work are easily overlooked. Machine curation, including text mining, may address the problem, though only up to a point. What a machine finds must be relevant or the human reader will dismiss it. Sparrho tackles the irrelevance crisis with an innovative personal recommendation platform for scientific content and opportunities. Machines can more easily make stringent decisions on large volumes of entries and help find ‘unexpected’ results from sources that humans may be biased against or not know about, such as smaller journals, she explained.

We see this same tension in debates over privacy protection for data placed on line by consumers.
