  • The PUC and Hu Honua: the End of the Saga (Energy 808: The Cutting Edge)

    Another Stake to the Heart of the Zombie.  The hosts for this show are Marco Mangelsdorf and Jay Fidell.  The guest is Henry Curtis.  


    On June 24 the Hawaii Public Utilities Commission ruled, again and perhaps for the final time, that the Power Purchase Agreement between Hu Honua and HELCO is not in the public interest.  Now the drama moves, again, to the courts.  Is this really the beginning of the end for this zombie of a power plant on the northeastern coast of the Big Island that has refused to go quietly into the night?

    Our discussion today is about getting longer life out of a Roofing system.  As much as possible, we all would like to have anything last longer to stretch out dollars that equates to our Maintenance Fees paid by owners.   Shingle and asphalt roofs last between 20 to 30 years with proper care and area of the islands.  Let's look at a Roofing system that can be applied to flat or slightly sloped roofs and has a longer life and the added benefit of energy savings.  GAF EverGuard TPO systems is our Talk Today.

  • What is Critical Theory, Part 2 (Thinking Things Through)

    Thinking Critically in Critical Times.  The host for this show is Michael Sukhov.  The guest is Michael J. Thompson.  


    We continue our discussion of Critical Theory with Michael J. Thompson, Professor of Political Science at William Paterson University. We revisit the main dimensions of this kind of thinking, and discuss examples of how it can be applied in the "real world."  We discuss what the term "radical" means in this context, and contrast this use of the term with its common, everyday usage.  We look more closely at the concept of "democracy" as it is commonly used in the media and public discourse, and contrast this usage with what the concept actually represents as it was envisioned in its "ideal" form by other philosophical traditions.  We discuss the contemporary usage of the terms "extremism" and "extremist" in American political discourse.  We close by revisiting the relationship of theory and practice as a key component of what it means to DO Critical Theory in today's troubled world.
