He’s dark, handsome, and a little over two feet tall. NHPR’s Kerry Grens went along on a hunt for illegal fish and filed this report. listen: No audio currently available. Order on CD (pdf).
Sociology of Terrorism / Women's Stage StoriesBy Shay Zeller on Wednesday, March 1, 2006.The words "terrorist" and "terrorism" have become ubiquitous to our daily news diet, and its hard to remember sometimes that it hasn't always been this way. The frequency of terrorist activity has been on the rise lately, but the face of terrorism is also changing. The who and the why are different now than just a few decades ago. And the very definition of terrorism can change, depending on perspective. We'll talk about the evolution and sociology of terrorism with Professor Mike Smith of St. Anselm College. The essence of women -- their motivations, their disguises, and their status is the foundation of a New Hampshire Theater Project production in Portsmouth. We'll talk with director Genevieve Aichele who brought the unusual concept to the stage, and with actor Lisa Richardson who brings several accents and characters to life.

A Legal History of Roe v. WadeBy Laura Knoy on Wednesday, March 1, 2006.The 1973 Supreme Court ruling made abortion legal in the U.S. but the decision was criticized from the get-go as being on shaky constitutional grounds.

Wade came to be, how it’s held up, and how it might fare in the face of future challenges. Laura's guests are Neil Siegel, Assistant Professor of Law and Political Science at Duke Law School and Mathew Staver, President of the Liberty Counsel. listen: No audio currently available.
