A major story in American history took place in the Klamath Basin, and it will be acknowledged more prominently in the future. The only question is HOW prominently. The Tule Lake area was home to internment camps during the second world war, keeping Japanese-Americans away from their homes and out of the general population. The Tule Lake Unit of the World War II Valor in the Pacific National Monument is developing a management plan for how to better tell the story of what happened there. Public

Joyce Roché was heading for the top in the corporate world. She broke barriers and glass ceilings on her way to executive suite, but one person doubted her: Joyce herself. She describes feeling "imposter syndrome" in her book The Empress Has No Clothes .

Most scientists believe climate change is caused by humans. But there are still plenty of holdouts in society. Maybe they just need to hear the facts a different way. How about through rap? Done already... Baba Brinkman is a Canadian rap artist who has even put Chaucer's Canterbury Tales in rap form. He takes on climate change in "The Rap Guide to Climate Chaos."

Climate change concerns the planet at large, but requires action at many levels. The City of Ashland is one of many local communities that opted to develop a Climate and Energy Action Plan . It is in draft form, has received a large amount of public input, and is moving toward a final document.

"What's that word?" If there were ever a person to ask that of, it's John Simpson. He spent half a lifetime as the senior editor of the final word in words, the Oxford English Dictionary (OED). In his book The Word Detective , he shares stories of how words come into the language, change in use, and even depart. John Simpson joins us, no doubt using many interesting words.

The Rogue River is a very different stream from just a decade ago. The removal of Savage Rapids, Gold Hill, and Gold Ray Dams from the river means it now flows freely from North of Shady Cove, all the way to the Pacific. But the Rogue River Watershed Council says there's still work to do, removing small dams and other fish obstacles from tributaries to the Rogue. Newly-awarded grants will boost that work.

Maybe you get confused by those news stories about fish swimming back into their native rivers from the ocean. Put aside how they find their way... how do we, as humans, keep track of which species belongs where? How do species differ from stream to stream? These are among the questions to be answered by an Aquatic Environmental DNA Atlas for the Western United States now in the works. Dan Isaak of the Forest Service is one of the people helping to compile the atlas.

If the name Winston Groom does not ring a bell, maybe you'll recognize the name of one of his books: Forrest Gump. It's one of more than a dozen books Groom has written, but certainly the one he's best known for. El Paso , the new novel, is set in a very different place and time... along the Mexican border in the early 20th century. Cattle, railroads, and Pancho Villa himself all figure prominently in the book.

Dorothea Lange shot some of the most memorable photographs in 20th-century America. But they were still photographs. Now Lange is the subject of a documentary film called "Grab a Hunk of Lightning," a story in moving pictures about her work in still pictures. It's a labor of love, directed by Dyanna Taylor, who is Lange's granddaughter.

Compared to some other animals, humans have it rough. When we lose a body part, it does not grow back. We've dreamed of regeneration for as long as we could dream. There IS a glimmer of hope, and it comes from a worm . See, the worm that has most in common with people CAN grow back severed parts. Our Creature Feature takes up the topic with Dr. Billie Swalla at the University of Washington.
