Nature versus Nurture (Encyclopedia of Science and Religion)
Nature and culture are classical opposites, or complements. By nature we are "born that way"; by nurture we learn to become civilized.
In one sense, "nature" refers to everything generated or produced. Etymologically, the Latin natura is the source from which all springs forth. For metaphysical naturalists, perhaps also for methodological scientists, nature is all that there is, without contrast class. Nothing non-natural or supernatural exists. Humans evolved within nature and break no natural laws. Another view holds that a straightforward contrast class for nature is culture, which nurtures humans into an inherited linguistic and symbolic system, a worldview, by which they communicate, perpetuate, and develop knowledge. This cultural genius makes possible the deliberate and cumulative, and therefore the extensive, rebuilding of nature. Humans reshape their environments, rather than being themselves morphologically and genetically reshaped to fit their changing environments. Humans come into the world by nature unfinished and become what they become by nurture.
Cultural education
Etymologically, "culture" is related to "cultivate," while "nurture" is related to "nurse" and "nourish," with overtones of rearing and training. Religious persons find their traditions vital in such nurture, and absent from nature. "Train up a child in the way in which he should go" (Prov. 22:6).
Such cultural education requires second-order intentionality. First-order intentionality is intent to change the behavior of another actor, and this is widespread in the animal world. Second-order intentionality is intent to change the mind (and usually also the behavior) of another animal; this seems absent among animals (or almost so). Although animals are variously socialized, they are not in this sense nurtured. Without some concept of teaching, of ideas moving from mind to mind, from parent to child, from teacher to pupil, a cumulative transmissible culture is impossible. Though language comes naturally to humans, what is learned has been culturally transmitted, using a specific language; the content learned during childhood education is that of an acquired, nongenetic culture.
Religious persons detect a supernature immanent in or transcendent to nature, perhaps even more in human culture. They find that neither nature nor culture is self-explanatory; both point to deeper forces, to a divine presence.
In contemporary biological and human sciences (anthropology, psychology, sociology), as well as in philosophy, there is much effort to naturalize culture, with equal amounts of resistance to such reduction (if that is what it is). Sociobiologists hold that genetic constraints are the principal determinants of culture; only those people and cultures survive that can place genes in the next generation. Evolutionary psychologists discover that humans have an "adapted mind," a modular mind with multiple survival subroutines more or less instinctiven contrast to the highly rational tabula rasa (empty, pliable mind) once favored by humanist philosophers. Philosophical pragmatists may agree that the mind is mostly a survival tool, even in its cultural education.
Culture remains a major determinant, nevertheless. Information in nature travels intergenerationally on genes; information in culture travels neurally as persons are educated into transmissible cultures. The determinants of animal and plant behavior are never anthropological, political, economic, technological, scientific, philosophical, ethical, or religious. Animal imprinting and limited transmitting of acquired information notwithstanding, humans gain a deliberated modification of nature that separates humans in their cultures from nature, increasingly so in high-technology cultures. Since decoding the human genome, completed in 2001, people stand at the threshold of rebuilding even their own genetic nature.
Nature-culture dualism
Humans have a dual inheritance system, nature and nurture. The intellectual and social heritage of past generations, lived out in the present, reformed and transmitted to the next generation, is regularly decisive. Cultures, especially modern ones, change rapidly in a few decades; the human genome hardly changes in thousands of years. Slow-paced genes are difficult to couple with fast-paced cultures.
A relatively pliable, educable mind is as great an adaptive advantage as is a mind with instinctive routines. The mind is so complex that the number of neurons and their possible connections (with resulting myriads of cultural options) far exceeds the number of genes coding the neural system; so it is impossible for the genes to specify all these connections. Human genes have generated an organism whose behavior results from an education beyond direct genetic control. As more knowledge is loaded into the tradition (fire building, agriculture, writing, weaponry, industrial processes, ethical codes, electronic technology, legal history) the genome selected will be one maximally instructible by the increasingly knowledgeable tradition. This will require a flexible intellect, able to accommodate continual learning speedily, adopting behaviors that are functional in whatever cultures humans find themselves. This is consistent with the unusually long period of child rearing in nuclear families with unusually large-brained babies, found in human evolutionary history and uncharacteristic of any other species.
Critics complain that nature-culture dualism is an undesirable Cartesian legacy (perhaps also a Christian or Greek one). The "versus" in the title of this entry frames the connections wrongly. Nature is the milieu of culture, and supposing our cultures to be in exodus from nature is at the root of our environmental crisis. Culture remains tethered to the biosystem, and the options within built environments, however expanded, provide no release from nature. An ecology always lies in the background of culture; no nurture is adequate that forgets these connections.
Perhaps cultural nurturing reinforces natural genetic dispositions for some practices (such as incest avoidance), but not for others (learning nuclear physics). Whether adults have enzymes for digesting fresh milk will determine their pastoral practices. But the differences between the Druids of ancient Britain and the Maoists in modern China are nongenetic and to be sought in the radically differentiating historical courses peculiar to these culturesven though Druids and Chinese have a biological nature largely held in common and despite differences in skin color or in blood groups.
Humans are only part of the world in biological, evolutionary, and ecological sensesheir nature; but Homo sapiens is the only part of the world free to orient itself with a view of the whole, to seek wisdom about who they are and where they are, and to develop their lives on Earth by means of culture. Such cumulative, ongoing nurture determines outcomes in the uniquely historical behavior of humans, making the critical difference, while human universals, biological, psychological, or social, which are a legacy of nature, have limited explanatory power.

"Thank goodness somebody is finally getting tough on Big Bird," Obama added. "It's about time. We didn't know that Big Bird was driving the federal deficit."
During Wednesday's 90-minute debate, neither presidential candidate scored dramatic blows that will make future highlight reels, and neither veered from campaign themes and policies to date. Moderator Jim Lehrer of PBS had trouble keeping the duo within time limits for responses, especially Obama, who ended up speaking four minutes longer than Romney.
Romney criticized Obama's record and depicted the president's vision as one of big government, while the Democratic incumbent defended his achievements and challenged his rival's prescriptions as unworkable.
But Romney came off as the more energized candidate overall by repeatedly attacking Obama on red-meat issues for Republicans such as health care reform and higher taxes, while the president began with lengthy explanations and only later focused more on what his opponent was saying.
The former governor's strongest moments came in criticizing Obama's record, saying the nation's high unemployment and sluggish economic recovery showed the president's policies haven't worked.
"There's no question in my mind if the president is re-elected, you'll continue to see a middle-class squeeze," Romney said, adding that another term for Obama also will mean the 2010 Affordable Care Act, known as Obamacare, "will be fully installed."
At another point, he noted how $90 billion spent on programs and policies to develop alternative energy sources could have been devoted to hiring teachers or other needs that would bring down unemployment.
Obama argued his policies were working to bring America back from the financial and economic crisis he inherited, and that Romney refused to divulge specifics about his proposed tax plans and replacements for the health care law and Wall Street reform that the Republican has pledged to repeal.
In one of his strongest lines of the night, Obama said Romney lacked the important leadership quality of being able to say "no" when necessary.
"I've got to tell you, Governor Romney, when it comes to his own party during the course of this campaign, has not displayed that willingness to say no to some of the more extreme parts of his party," Obama said in reference to his challenger's swing to the right during the primaries to appeal to the GOP's conservative base.
Romney rejected Obama's characterization of his tax plan, insisting it won't add to the deficit, and criticized the president's call to allow tax rates on income over $250,000 for families and $200,000 for individuals to return to higher 1990s rates as a job-snuffing tax hike on small business.
Romney repeatedly went after Obama on the health care reform bill, criticizing the president for focusing so strongly on a measure that passed with no Republican support instead of devoting more attention to creating jobs.
"I just don't know how the president could have come into office, facing 23 million people out of work, rising unemployment, an economic crisis at the -- at the kitchen table, and spend his energy and passion for two years fighting for Obamacare instead of fighting for jobs for the American people," Romney said.
"The right answer is not to have the federal government take over health care," Romney added, quickly noting his plan would include popular provisions of Obamacare such as allowing children up to age 26 stay on family plans and preventing insurers from denying coverage for pre-existing conditions.
With polls narrowing less than five weeks before Election Day, Obama and Romney launched a new phase in a bitter race dominated so far by negative advertising as both camps try to frame the election to their advantage.
Whether it matters is itself a topic of debate. According to an analysis by Gallup, televised debates have affected the outcome of only two elections in the past half century -- Nixon-Kennedy in 1960 and Bush-Gore in 2000.

Why do most surfers look miserably, grumpy and generally unhappy in the water?
I have noticed this for a long time but it struck home when at my local, Llangennith, there was an early 30s, average-good surfer sat at the line-up. His face set in stone and when I paddled out again, he took a good wave in front of me; a fun ride with a bit of weaving, nothing special but what struck me was that he looked expressionless the whole time. He caught the wave, rode it and kicked out without a single flicker of enjoyment crossing his face.
He is not alone, most surfers in the UK look positively angry when they surf. When most human beings exchange a glance they either nod, smile or otherwise acknowledge each others presence. In the UK there is meagrely a stony stare from most.
Why are surfers/ Brits so miserable?

- Put a baking sheet in the oven at 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Put the flour, salt and baking powder into a food processor, then whizz in the butter until it disappears. Pulse in the sugar, tip into a large bowl, then make a well in the middle.
- Warm the yogurt, milk and vanilla together in the microwave for 1 min or in a pan; it should be hot and may well go a bit lumpy-looking. Tip into the bowl and quickly work into the flour mix using a cutlery knife. As soon as it's all in, stop.
- Tip the dough onto a floured surface, then, with floured hands, fold the dough over a few times – just enough to create a smoothish dough. Press out to about 4cm/1½in thick, dip a 7cm cutter into more flour, then stamp out 4 rounds, flouring the cutter each time. Squash the remainder lightly together, then repeat until the dough is used up. Brush tops with egg wash, scatter flour over the hot sheet, then lift the scones on. Bake for 12 mins until risen and golden. Best eaten just-warm, or on the day.
Recipe from Good Food magazine, September 2009
Comments, questions and tips
Thought this recipe was great, I made the scones without any sugar and tripled the ingredients to make a batch of 12 and enough for more tomorrow. Surprised how quick and easy it was. I also used extra yogurt rather than the milk as described as I had a large tub that needed using up. Served them to hungry family straight from the oven with plum jam and they were a big hit!
Thank you for the recipe. I've just tried it out and the scones have turned out fabulously, nothing like the usual bullets! I didn't have any yoghourt so I substituted it with creme fraiche and since I have a sweet tooth I added some currants as well. The result is light, fluffy and simply delicious.
I never rate/review recipes but thought this deserved a special mention. Made these as part of a mothers day afternoon tea. They took no time/effort at all to make and were beautifully soft with a perfect crunchy outside. I used raisins as i had run out of sultanas and they were lovely. Other recipes I have tried turned out hard/dry. This recipe is perfect. Top marks.
oh my god. these are the best scones i have ever tasted, i made 13 yesterday but they didn't last very long {everyone wanted one} so i doubled up on everything today so we now 30 smaller scones to hand out to the rest of the family. i added a sprinkle of golden sugar once i had egg washed them..............nice addition.

Lakhdar Brahimi, the U.N. and Arab League point man who has been shuttling among capitals in an attempt to broker a halt to the war in Syria, said Thursday he is pinning his hopes on the formation of a transitional government in Damascus that would hold power until an election.
A June 30 communique issued in Switzerland by world powers would provide a template for Syrian-led political change and an end to the carnage in an Arab land torn daily by fighting, misery and chaos, Brahimi told reporters in Damascus.
"The situation in Syria now presents a grave danger; not just to the Syrian people, but also to the neighboring countries and the world," he told reporters Thursday in the Syrian capital. "Time is in no one's favor."
The so-called Geneva plan united countries that had been at odds on how to handle the crisis. Russia and China joined France, Britain, the United States and Turkey in agreeing on the plan. Arab League nations also signed on to it.
"The Geneva conference held in June this year includes elements that are sufficient for a plan to end the crisis in the next few coming months," he said. "It was clear in Geneva and it is now clearer that the change required is not cosmetic. Syria and the Syrian people need, want and look forward to real change."
World powers have been seeking a solution to the 21 months of conflict in Syria. There's widespread support for President Bashar al-Assad leaving power in any change of government.
Brahimi foresees a transitional government with "full executive powers" that would govern during "the transitional period, which will end with elections."
"The transitional period should not be allowed to lead to the collapse of the state and its institutions. On the contrary, everyone should cooperate -- the Syrians and those who assist them -- to preserve these institutions and to rebuild and strengthen them," he said.
Brahimi said violence must stop and "strong observation" by a peacekeeping mission would be key.
"When we reach a stage of speaking about peacekeeping forces, it means that there is an agreement, and thankfully, the parties have agreed that they need these forces," he said.
"No one will bring forces into Syria from a country that is not approved by either of the Syrian parties."
A key question from Geneva is whether al-Assad could be part of a transitional government.
According to the communique, the transitional government "could include members of the present government and the opposition and other groups and shall be formed on the basis of mutual consent."
But Thursday, a spokesman for the opposition Syrian National Coalition, Walid al Bunni, told reporters in Istanbul, "The Syrian opposition will never accept any initiative to solve the crisis in Syria if it doesn't involve Assad stepping down."
Over the last few weeks, Brahimi has held discussions with Syrian, Russian and U.S. officials, and is expected to visit Moscow on Saturday. Russia's role in forging peace is key because Moscow has confounded Western and Arab nations by blocking tough action in the U.N. Security Council against Syria, its longtime ally.
On Thursday, talks in Moscow between Russian officials and a Syrian delegation led by Deputy Foreign Minister Faisal Muqdad at the Foreign Ministry ended with neither Muqdad nor the ministry commenting.
Russia has had good relations with the Assad regime, but it has grown angry with the warfare and wants to resolve a conflict that has left more than 40,000 people dead.
"In our talks with Brahimi and with our American colleagues, we are trying to feel a way out of this situation on the basis of our common plan of action that was agreed on in Geneva in June," Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Alexander Lukashevich said, according to state-run RIA Novosti.
"We plan to discuss a range of issues linked to a political and diplomatic settlement in Syria, including Brahimi's efforts aimed at halting the violence and the start of a comprehensive national dialogue."
Lukashevich said he was not ruling out engaging with the Syrian National Coalition, the opposition movement recognized by nations opposed to the Assad government.
"But when and at what level, that's an entirely different matter," he said, according to RIA Novosti.
Brahimi told reporters that the plight of displaced people reflects the misery that exists throughout Syria. Since the civil war began last year, more than 540,000 refugees have spilled into nearby countries such as Jordan, Turkey, Iraq, Lebanon and Egypt.
"When we say there are [4] million internally displaced, what does it mean? It means that there are children and women who have nowhere to sleep, nothing to eat and are roaming the streets. We should thank their Syrian brethren who, in many cases, share their bread with them. These 4 million people are in need for bread and medicine," he said.
"You must have seen on TV boys breaking their desks in school to bring some wood for their families for heat. This is the meaning of what is happening in Syria."
With host countries strained and winter settling in on refugee camps, the crisis is expected to worsen.

Oh - one last note... the Diode and Transistors which use the case as a heatsink require that thermal coupling paste to work correctly (and the shims so they don't short out)... a cheap and available alternative which Radio shack should have is ceramic polysynthetic thermal compound, commonly known as "Arctic Silver". Be sure to re-apply some if you damage it. I use this same stuff on the Infineon controllers and have never had an issue with it.
Hope this helps!

I had a poke around with the multimeter while powered up and found 12v off the back of a zener diode and much to my suprise found that when under load and supplying alot of current the voltage actually increased, so I ended up with a variable speed fan that increased with current draw. BONUS!
Cool graphs Mike. Why does it cut out at ~ 38, 47 and 54 minute ? Is it going into hiccup mode or did a lead come off or something ?
does the fan have NEON?

Remove it and the current shoots back up and the arcing stopped. The packs I was charging are also brand new, but as I said they happily charged silently at the full current output from the power supply so in my case atleast its not the packs causing the buzzing (and probably less likely in your case too, unless one cell is madly sucking current or something ? )
Oh and yeah I have the earth connected - well, the earth connector to the AC power lead earth. I haven't physically run a lead from that earth terminal to the side of the case. to the I have a CFL light over my work bench that buzzes quite loud sometimes, but a sharp whack fixes it.

Post-Vasectomy Male Organ Care – Suggestions for At-home Relief
Performing proper pennis care after surgery
could help men to avoid complications and feel better fast. Some tips for
post-op relief are described right here.
is Vital
the past, a vasectomy involved a significant amount of cutting and also a large
amount of bleeding, and some men even had stitches to contend with. Modern
techniques are less invasive, and some men believe that these new
procedures allow them to skip a long recuperation period. While it' s true that
current surgical procedures result in a smaller amount of blood loss, men who
go through a vasectomy still must be respectful of the trauma that' ersus taken
place down below.
for 1 to 2 days is typically recommended, and much of the rest should take
location as a man lies flat in the back. Men who walk or even sit as they recover
encourage blood to follow the laws associated with gravity, flowing down to the surgery
site. Deep pain and intense bruising can quickly follow. Relaxing on the back,
on the other hand, allows for even blood distribution through the entire body.
Fewer bruises may develop, and the pain may also be less intense.
Icing is Key
can help to reduce inflammation levels and keep clots from forming, so guys are
often encouraged to make use of ice packs on their laps as they heal. The cold shock of
ice can be heaven meant for damaged tissues, but a fabric or some other buffer should
always be in place between the sensitive pennis and the ice pack. Men who
haven' t quite recovered from the anesthesia of surgery and who plop an ice pack
directly on their skin could be rewarded with a nasty case associated with frostbite as a
incentive for their oversight. Even if the ice contact doesn' t hurt, a buffer
should always be used.
Lifting can be Forbidden
lifting tasks require guys to tighten their abdominal muscles and strain the
tissues within their groins. Normally, this doesn' t pose a problem, but after a
vasectomy, tissues are sewing together and scars are forming. The skin is
just fragile, and placing a significant amount of stress on that healing
cells could mean breaking open stitching or otherwise causing complications. As
a result, all heavy lifting must be avoided for at least a week after the
vasectomy is finish.
Are Rare, But Possible
most cases, a vasectomy progresses smoothly and men recover with no
complications at all. There are some men, however , who do have difficulty after
surgery and who need care to be able to heal. These men might experience warning
signs, including:
- A fever
- Bleeding
- Pus rising from the incision
- Pain
- Swelling
of these signs should be taken seriously, and men should call their providers
for help. The sooner the issue is caught, the easier it might be to address.

EDMONTON - Michael Hannan says standing on a steel platform cantilevered in mid-air from a rocky cliff high above Jasper National Park's Sunwapta Valley is even more awe-inspiring than he imagined.
"It's really beyond our expectations," said the president of Brewster Travel Canada. "When you get out there, it's really quiet because you're below the grade of the highway and it's surprising how quiet it is, but then you hear the massive rush of the waterfall down there. It's stunningly beautiful and you really couldn't see that before."
Construction on Brewster's Glacier Skywalk, a glass-floored steel observation deck extending 30 metres over the valley on the Icefields Parkway, will be completed this week or next.
All that remains to be done is the installation of six interpretive stations along the 400-metre path leading to the observation deck in the spring.
It took two seasons of construction by Edmonton-based PCL and 200 metric tonnes of steel to finish the project. The design by Calgary's Sturgess Architecture won an award at the World Architecture Festival in Barcelona in 2011.
"I would say it's our most unusual build and not just because of where it was, but because of what was being built," said Marc Chiasson, senior construction manager for PCL's civil department in Calgary. "It's a-one-of-a kind project. The design of it, I don't think we'll ever see something similar, at least in my lifetime."
The biggest challenge was engineering the Skywalk to bear its load and withstand the oscillation from heavy alpine winds, he said.
Hannan would not disclose the Skywalk's cost, but said the project met its budget and schedule, which was revised after some re-engineering for the foundation was required last year when drillers came across some fragmented rock.
Visitors will still have to wait until May 1 for the Skywalk to open for its inaugural season. Tickets will cost $25 for admission to the platform, but walking the trail is free.
The project was opposed by some environmentalists and Jasper residents concerned about the ecological impact and the privatization of a public national park site.
"It adds nothing to the true visitor experience," said Sean Nichols, conservation specialist with the Alberta Wilderness Association. "You can see the glaciers and the wildlife perfectly well without those sorts of intrusive development that really degrades the habitat and causes significant disturbance to the animals that live there."
The project passed a federal environmental assessment in 2012 and Hannan says the finished Skywalk proves its proponents right.
"From an overall footprint standpoint, it's like putting a bridge on a highway," Hannan said. "Unless you can tell me where the oil is spewing and the greenhouse gases are being created."
The walk will be accessed via the tourist company's nearby Icefield Centre. Public parking at the site will be closed, but the company will ferry visitors to a free viewpoint or a paid interpretive walk. Brewster hopes the attraction will double visitors to the site, which was formerly a 500-metre roadside pullout on the highway at Tangle Ridge and a popular spot for sightseers.

Your stress level could be measured on the Richter Scale. It's the week before Christmas, so there are a zillion people at the airport. Your flight has been delayed. The kids are crying. Your husband is yelling. Starving, you find the nearest food vendor and order a $12 basket of chicken fingers with fries.
Been there? Done that? Eating healthy on the road has long been a struggle for holiday travelers. It's one of the many reasons people tend to gain a couple extra pounds between Thanksgiving and New Year's.
The good news is that consumers are demanding more nutritious options when they fly -- and the industry is responding, says Renate DeGeorge, director of culinary services for HMSHost, which operates dining facilities at more than 100 airports worldwide.
In recent years HMSHost has made several changes to their menus, including adding a variety of new salads, offering hummus plates as an appetizer and providing whole-grain bread for sandwiches.
"Most places now offer a variety of healthy options no matter where you stop, so that every traveler can find something they are looking for," DeGeorge wrote in an email.
Here are five ways you can make sure you eat right while flying this holiday season:
Have a plan
You know your departure time, arrival time and the time you'll -- hopefully -- have during a layover. Use that schedule to plan full meals throughout the day.
"A meal in general is typically the same calories as many snacks," says Charles Platkin, founder and editor of DietDetective.com. But if you eat a real meal, "you're actually going to get decent nutrition... and you're going to feel a higher level of being satiated."
For example, if you leave early in the morning, plan to eat breakfast at home. If you'll be on the plane during lunch, decide what you'll eat in the air before you get to the airport. If dinner will be late because your plane lands after 8 p.m., make sure to eat a bigger protein- and fiber-filled lunch to tide you over.
When mapping out your meals, remember to prepare for the possibility that your timing and/or location could be thrown off by a delayed flight or missed connection. Which leads us to our next hint...
Know your airport
Every year the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine reviews the food served at the busiest airports in the United States. In 2012, the group found that on average 76% of airport restaurants sell at least one low-fat, high-fiber, cholesterol-free vegetarian entrée.
In other words, the excuse "there's nothing healthy to eat at the airport" is no longer valid (sorry).
Airport restaurants in Newark, New Jersey; Las Vegas; or Detroit are most likely to offer a healthy option, according to the PCRM report, while Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport and Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport landed at the bottom of the group's ranking for the third year in a row. So if you're passing through D.C. or Atlanta, stock up on some healthy fare beforehand.
Know your airline
Platkin publishes an annual food investigation survey that ranks the snacks and onboard food-service offerings from most major airlines.
"When you're a passenger on an airplane, you don't really have much choice," he says. "You're a captive audience and that creates a higher standard that airlines need to have."
Virgin America and Air Canada each earned four stars on Platkin's site for offering plenty of healthy options and providing calorie information for consumers. Platkin recommends Virgin's snack boxes -- like the protein meal with hummus -- and Air Canada's Roasted Chicken Wrap with salsa. You can check out his recommendations for other airlines here.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla.-- Local military families are on alert after the USS Gettysburg deployment was delayed due to budget cuts.
Lori Shrader was planning her roommate's going-away party. He was due to deploy Friday on the USS Gettysburg. Shrader's roommate and the other sailors on the Gettysburg at Naval Station Mayport found out Wednesday that budget cuts are keeping the ship docked.
So instead of a happy sendoff, sailors have no idea when they'll even ship out. Shrader says her roommate wasn't given many details.
"He said I'm not sure. I was just told today the deployment scheduled in two days is now cut," said Shrader.
Navy leaders made the decision because they're facing a budget uncertainty. If Congress can't pass a budget, the Pentagon will absorb $46 billion in spending reductions.
Top U.S. leaders say these cuts damage the economy and degrade the military's ability to respond to a crisis. That's what worries Shrader. While she's happy there will still be customers she's worried we're more vulnerable.
"We're scared cause they're staying not shipping out to protect us. They're the Navy," said Shrader.
Action News has also learned helicopters from the HSM-74 helicopter squadron were also stalled.
