You are Durango. Time is $730.00. That means it's time for pulse of the planet yeah yeah hey. See yeah we're all queued up ready to go. You know where musicians and dancers dressed in feathers and brightly colored rags make their way down the street from house to house they're observing a friend netiquette ritual that blends elements of the West African Caribbean in English tradition I'm Jim Metzner and this is the pulse of the planet in the celebration known as John canoe revelers danced to the sound of a square drum called of box slaves probably brought it to North Carolina from Jamaica around the year 7070 Historian Simon Spaulding says that like the drum many aspects of this festival can be traced back through time however the origin of the word Junkanoo itself remains a mystery there are literally dozens of possible terror of Asians and several African languages that have to do with Festival celebrations it was also suggested that there was someone named John if you knew where John Kuhn or who was a slave trader on the coast of Africa that's who was named for because in some versions John King he was a person you know the cases it's the description for the whole celebration of it's easy to hear the Afro Caribbean influence of John can in music but other important elements of the celebration like the prominent figure of a rag man hearken back to English custom John canoe is often held in the Caribbean and I'm told in Guyana as well on Boxing Day which is a very traditional English holiday the day after Christmas on Boxing Day in many parts of England a man doubts in the streets wearing ragman clothes like this trousers and jackets or shirts that have the strips of cloth and often carrying wooden swords in John canoe in Jamaica and here in North Carolina you have the exact same kinds of clothing with any also have the rag man often carrying a wooden stick we'll hear more about Junkanoo in future programs pulse of the planet is presented by the National Science Foundation I'm Jim that's near there.

It's it's time now for momentum stay tuned after that for our little announcement about people we know right. Welcome to momentum transportation and sustainability information brought to you by k.t. You are in the city of Durango I'm Amber Blake interim city manager. Oh wait what's that sound why it's Santa Claus Of course it's that time of year again when an incredible feat of physics happens all over the globe for one night only. I'm obviously referring to the transportation logistics of Santa. Now stay with me while us mere mortals deal with passenger vehicles public buses bikes and skis the big man in the red suit has to deal with flying reindeer and about 321000 tons of presents all while dodging planes and wildlife. It's estimated that Santa Claus visits 31 percent of u.s. Households and that doesn't even include the rest of the globe calculating all these people in and figuring that he has 31 hours to work thanks to time zones in the rotation of the year he has to visit $822.00 households per 2nd that means he's travelling at 650 miles a 2nd and that's about $3000.00 times the speed of sound it's remarkable when you think about it so how can you help well keep an eye out on Christmas Eve and be sure that you stay out of his way if you slow him down you could be affecting the delivery of 100000000 gifts and you don't want to cut into Santa as cookie eating time he only has fractions of a 2nd as it is if you don't believe this is possible and. For more information on Durango's transportation and sustainability programs log on to Durango gov dot org or contact me at 375. 4949 This has been momentum a look at transportation and sustainability information brought to you by Katie you are in the city of tourists. As. Well that's an interesting take on the magic of Christmas. Explained Yeah it's Christmas or Santa Claus explained you know you know now right now I get it well they say he stops the clock right yeah to go it's not like he actually has to be in 600 pounds in a 2nd.
