Live Episode: Is the Bible Still Relevant?
In this inaugural live recording of the podcast, Ante and Oliver delve into the enduring cultural and spiritual significance of the Bible before a predominantly college-aged audience. Throughout the event, including the additional pre- and post-event debriefs, they highlight the intriguing aspect of the Bible\u27s appeal to a range of secular audiences. They explore possible reasons for this phenomenon and corroborate it with autobiographical anecdotes. The conversation then transitions to viewing the Bible as a cultural artifact, pondering its metaphorical representation as a cathedral, and considering the symbolism inherent in that image. They discuss how the Bible, by depicting the flaws of its figures, stands as a unique document in the annals of human culture. The episode concludes with some thoughts on how the Bible can gain greater personal significance in our lives

Egg Cannibalism in Glaucous-Winged Gulls
Climate change results in a broad range of changes in animals including physiological responses, predator-prey relations, and feeding tactics. In this chapter we explore the impact of changes in sea surface temperature on egg cannibalism, a feeding tactic used by gulls. We use logistic regression and information-theoretic methods of model selection in the assessment of this tactic. This chapter provides background for empirical and theoretical analyses highlighted in the much of the remainder of the book. The original publication of this research appeared in The Condor: Ornithological Applications in 2014, by senior authors James Hayward, Lynelle Weldon, and Shandelle Henson, and student authors Libby Megna, Brianna Payne, and Andre Moncrieff [37]
Predicting Flightless Cormorant Behavior
This chapter is based on work carried out in the Galápagos Islands, Ecuador in 2011. James Hayward and Susana Velastegui Chávez, with two graduate students, Libby Megna and Brianna Payne, collected the data. Shandelle Henson carried out the data analysis, which involved Poisson regression, logistic regression, and multi-model inference based on the Akaike information criterion (AIC). Results from the study were initially published in The Wilson Journal of Ornithology in 2013 [18]. We present this work as an example of how regression models can be used to explain the aggregate behavior of marine organisms
