From the different tribes that span the state to the scores of settlers from every corner of the map that put down roots in the state's red clay, Oklahomans have some colorful heritage. But some are celebrating that heritage a little more than others. Two mechanics in Tulsa are actively celebrating their Scottish background--at least until the heatwave breaks.

On this week's ONR, schools across the country are growing more diverse, and it's causing unique problems for some Oklahoma educators. Clean energy abounds in the Sooner state, or it's trying to. Lawmakers and leaders continue to push for compressed natural gas vehicles, and while Oklahoma is eighth in the country for wind energy production, the loss of a tax credit could leave a booming industry blowing in the wind. Out of the ashes of the state's recent wildfires, communities come together to help students left homeless from the flames, and one program is helping rural residents better fireproof vulnerable houses. Plus, a trip to Tulsa's historic Greenwood District, an exploration of a tribe's history, and a look at the high-flying women of the Museum of the 99's on this ONR.

Her story played out in national headlines: kidnapped in 2002, gone for nine long months, counted as lost by many, and then rescued after authorities were told about her kidnappers' whereabouts. What's not so well known is the aftermath of Elizabeth Smart's kidnapping. She has taken her experience and turned it into a tool for advocacy, working to prevent crimes against children. Recently, Smart spoke at the Girl Scouts of Eastern Oklahoma's inaugural Women of Character speaker series about her harrowing experience, and how she turned her tragedy into triumph.
