Newport is the first city on the Oregon Coast to adopt a new estuary management plan in more than 40 years. The city jointly manages the Yaquina Bay Estuary with Lincoln County and the city of Toledo. The three entities use the plan to determine what kind of development can happen in what parts of the estuary.  The updated version requires developers to perform climate vulnerability assessments for all projects in the estuary. It also includes a commitment from Newport city leaders to revisit the plan and update it periodically as the estuary faces new climate impacts, such as rising sea levels and warming ocean temperatures.  Annie Merrill is the estuaries and ocean manager for the Oregon Shores Conservation Coalition. She joins us to talk more about estuaries and the risks they face in a changing climate.

Coimisiún na Meán has published the finalised Online Safety Code. The Code sets binding rules applying to video-sharing platforms who have their EU headquarters in Ireland. The general obligations contained in the Code will apply from next month and platforms will have an implementation period for certain detailed provisions, which require IT build, to come into compliance. Coimisiún na Meán will take a supervisory approach to enforcing the Code, ensuring that platforms implement appropriate systems to comply with the provisions of the Code The Code introduces obligations on video-sharing platforms to protect people, especially children, from harmful video and associated content, including: Prohibiting the uploading or sharing of harmful content on their services including cyberbullying, promoting self-harm or suicide and promoting eating or feeding disorders as well as incitement to hatred or violence, terrorism, child sex abuse material, racism and xenophobia. Using age assurance to prevent children from encountering pornography or gratuitous violence online and having age verification measures in place as appropriate. Providing parental controls for content which may impair the physical, mental, or moral development of children under 16. These platforms will also have to ensure that they have ways for people to report content that breaks the rules, and act on those reports in line with their Terms and Conditions. The development of the Code was informed by an initial call for inputs in summer 2023, followed by a full public consultation from December 2023 to February 2024, which received nearly 1400 responses. Coimisiún na Meán's Youth Advisory Committee was also consulted on the development of the Code. The Code was then notified to the European Commission under the Technical Regulations Information System (TRIS) Directive process to ensure alignment with the EU Digital Services Act. The Code is part of Coimisiún na Meán's overall Online Safety Framework. This Framework makes digital services accountable for how they protect users from harm online. The updated Code, combined with the other parts of the Online Safety Framework, will deliver on the objectives of the Online Safety and Media Regulation Act, leading to safer online experiences for people across Ireland. The overall Online Safety Framework gives Coimisiún na Meán the tools to address the root causes of harm online, including the availability of illegal content, the harmful impacts of recommender systems, and inadequate protections for children on social media services. The Online Safety Commissioner, Niamh Hodnett, said: "The adoption of the Online Safety Code brings an end to the era of social media self-regulation. The Code sets binding rules for video-sharing platforms to follow in order to reduce the harm they can cause to users. We will work to make sure that people know their rights when they go online and we will hold the platforms to account and take action when platforms don't live up to their obligations." Executive Chairperson of Coimisiún na Meán, Jeremy Godfrey said: "With the adoption of the Online Safety Code, all the elements of our Online Safety Framework are now in place. Our focus now is on fully implementing the Framework and driving positive changes in peoples' lives online. Our message to people is clear: if you come across something you think is illegal or against a platform's own rules for what they allow, you should report it directly to the platform. Our Contact Centre is available to provide advice and guidance to people if they need help." Minister for Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media, Catherine Martin TD commented: "I welcome Coimisiún na Meán's adoption of its first Online Safety Code. Building upon the foundation set out in the Online Safety and Media Regulation Act 2022, this code is a major step forward in online safety. It introduces real accountability for online video sharing platforms and requires them to...

In 1963, Shawn was placed for adoption because his white mother's family didn't want a biracial grandson. As an infant, he passed for white, so he was adopted by a racist, rural Indiana family who didn't realize that he was Black. Ashamed of his ethnicity, his mom concocted lies to hide his race from everyone, including Shawn. This lack of racial identity caused depressing confusion and conflict with his education, relationships, and career, but his mom insisted that he was not to search for his birth family until after she died. Around age 40, Shawn and his wife decided that they were well-suited to adopt other biracial babies. Through the adoption process, Shawn discovered clues that helped him locate and reunite with his biological family. Although Shawn's author name for his book "Born Without A Race" is Dr Michael Bauer, he wishes to be addressed as Shawn during this interview for personal reasons.   LINKS: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B088QRC91Q Connect With Melissa: -Email Melissa here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠mindyourownkarma@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ -Click here for the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Mind Your Own Karma Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠-Click here for ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Somatic Mindful Guided Imagery⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ -Find Mind Your Own Karma on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ -Find Mind Your Own Karma on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ -Find Mind Your Own Karma on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ -Click here for a ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠comprehensive list of adoptee/adoptee trauma-informed practitioners. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Dial 988 for the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline. ________ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠WANT TO BE A GUEST? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (click to email mindyourownkarma@gmail.com) Mind Your Own Karma – The Adoption Chronicles Podcast educates listeners on the realities of adoption through the stories of adoptees, birth parents, and adoptive parents.

War Room United Nations Adopts ‘Pact for the Future' New World Order Plan to ‘Transform Global Governance

The Summit of the Future has opened at the United Nations headquarters in New York, with the adoption of the Pact for the Future.

The annual Congressional Hackathon is Thursday, and ahead of it, FedScoop is reporting that two of the five top recommendations from last year's event have been implemented and others are on their way to being realized. Steve Dwyer, senior director for innovation at the House Office of the Chief Administrative Officer, told FedScoop that the two completed and now implemented projects are an internal unified House calendar that was launched in July and an internal social media tracking tool that was announced in recent weeks by the CAO to compare lawmakers' social media statistics. A bipartisan House bill aimed at improving customer service interactions with government technology breezed through a key Senate panel Wednesday, putting it one step closer to becoming law. The Government Service Delivery Improvement Act passed the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee by an 11-0 tally, setting it up for a vote before the full chamber. The bill, first introduced by Reps. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., Byron Donalds, R-Fla., Barry Loudermilk, R-Ga., and William Timmons, R-S.C. in the House last October, passed that chamber in May. The legislation tasks agency heads with designating a senior official to oversee service delivery improvements and charges the Office of Management and Budget with choosing a senior official to coordinate governmentwide efforts on the issue.

We also discuss new corruption allegations against the group in a recently filed lawsuit from a former employee, as well as the group's first big election ad buy of the cycle. Finally, we recap the limited role guns played in the Presidential debate between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump and new evidence of a modest bump in support for stricter gun laws in the aftermath of the Georgia shooting.

This Day in Legal History: Dutch Low Countries Independence from SpainOn July 26, 1581, the Dutch Low Countries signed the Plakkaat van Verlatinghe, also known as the Act of Abjuration, formally declaring their independence from Spanish rule. This monumental document marked the culmination of a prolonged struggle against the oppressive policies of the Spanish Habsburgs, particularly under King Philip II. The Act of Abjuration justified the Dutch rebellion by asserting that a ruler who does not protect his subjects and instead oppresses them loses his legitimacy. The declaration was a pivotal moment in the Eighty Years' War (1568–1648), which ultimately led to the establishment of the Dutch Republic.The Act of Abjuration is often compared to the later Declaration of Independence of the United States, as both documents articulate the right of a people to overthrow an unjust ruler. The Dutch provinces, driven by the desire for religious freedom, economic independence, and political autonomy, took a bold step in severing ties with one of the most powerful empires of the time. The Plakkaat van Verlatinghe underscored the principle that sovereignty resides with the people, a concept that would influence political thought in Europe and beyond.By declaring their independence, the Dutch not only sought to free themselves from tyranny but also set a precedent for future nations seeking self-determination. The Act of Abjuration remains a significant milestone in the history of democracy and the fight for human rights. It symbolizes the enduring struggle for freedom and justice, themes that continue to resonate in contemporary political discourse.The California Supreme Court has upheld Proposition 22, allowing Uber, Lyft, and other gig economy companies to classify drivers as independent contractors. This unanimous decision supports the 2020 voter-approved law, preventing a significant shift in labor costs and maintaining the companies' current business models. Had the ruling gone against Prop 22, these companies would have faced increased costs and operational challenges in California, one of their largest markets.Following the ruling, shares of Uber, Lyft, DoorDash, and Instacart surged, though the gains later moderated. Justice Goodwin H. Liu stated that California's constitution does not prevent voters from passing initiatives affecting workers' compensation. He emphasized that this ruling does not bar future legislative decisions to extend workers' compensation benefits to independent contractors.Gig companies hailed the decision, emphasizing that it reflects the will of millions of Californians. However, labor advocates criticized the ruling, arguing it unfairly burdens gig workers by denying them essential protections like minimum wage, sick leave, and overtime pay. Advocates, including the plaintiff Hector Castellanos, renewed calls for unionization to combat these perceived inequities.The ruling is seen as a victory for gig economy companies but signals ongoing legal and legislative battles. States like Massachusetts, New York, Washington, and Minnesota have tackled gig worker classifications with varying strategies, indicating the complexity and ongoing nature of this issue.California Gig Workers to Remain Contractors, Prop 22 Upheld (2)Justice Elena Kagan has proposed that Chief Justice John Roberts appoint a panel of experienced and respected judges to enforce the US Supreme Court's newly adopted code of conduct. Speaking at a judicial conference in Sacramento, Kagan expressed trust in Roberts to establish such a committee. This suggestion comes amid controversy over reports of lavish gifts received by Justice Clarence Thomas, highlighting the need for an enforcement mechanism to accompany the recently adopted code of conduct.Kagan acknowledged the challenges in determining who should enforce ethics rules for the justices but emphasized the necessity of finding a solution. During her discussion at the US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit's annual judicial conference, she also criticized the practice of justices writing multiple opinions in a single case. She argued that this complicates the work of lower courts and prevents the Supreme Court from providing clear guidance.Kagan specifically mentioned the court's fractured decision in United States v. Rahimi, where seven justices wrote separate opinions despite only one dissent. This case, which upheld a federal gun law related to domestic violence, illustrated divisions among the justices on interpreting firearm restrictions. Kagan's comments follow a term marked by several controversial Supreme Court decisions, including limiting federal regulatory power and providing immunity to former President Donald Trump for certain official acts.Elena Kagan Endorses High Court Ethics Enforcement Mechanism (1)Apple Inc. has agreed to adopt a set of voluntary artificial intelligence (AI) safeguards established by President Joe Biden's administration. These safeguards aim to guide the development of AI technology and encourage companies to protect consumers. Apple joins other tech giants like OpenAI Inc., Amazon.com Inc., Alphabet Inc., Meta Platforms Inc., and Microsoft Corp. in committing to test their AI systems for discriminatory tendencies, security flaws, and national security risks. The companies also pledge to share test results transparently with governments, civil society, and academia, and report any vulnerabilities.This commitment coincides with Apple's plan to integrate OpenAI's chatbot, ChatGPT, into its iPhone voice-command assistant. However, Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla Inc., has threatened to ban Apple devices from his companies if OpenAI's software is integrated at the operating system level, citing security concerns. Musk has his own AI startup, xAI, which has developed a chatbot named Grok.AI technology has become mainstream, but its use in areas like law enforcement, hiring, and housing has faced criticism for fostering discrimination. President Biden has emphasized the benefits of AI while also warning of its potential dangers, advocating for responsible industry practices. Although the White House guidelines are comprehensive, they are not enforceable, relying on companies to adhere to the standards voluntarily.In response to the challenges of regulating AI, Biden signed an executive order last year requiring powerful AI systems to undergo testing to be eligible for federal government purchase. He is set to receive an update on the implementation of this directive. Meanwhile, a bipartisan group of lawmakers in Congress has expressed interest in regulating AI, but legislation has not yet been prioritized.Apple to Adopt Voluntary AI Safeguards Established by BidenManhattan prosecutors argued that Donald Trump's conviction should stand despite a Supreme Court ruling that presidents cannot face criminal charges for official acts. In a recent court filing, prosecutors emphasized that the charges against Trump involved personal conduct, specifically the hush money payment to Stormy Daniels, and were unrelated to his presidential duties. Trump was convicted on 34 felony counts for falsifying business records to cover up the payment made by his lawyer, Michael Cohen, before the 2016 election. Trump denies the encounter and plans to appeal the verdict. Legal experts believe the request to overturn the conviction is unlikely to succeed as the conduct predates Trump's presidency. Trump's defense claimed the prosecution improperly used evidence of his official acts during the trial, including Twitter posts and testimonies from White House aides, but prosecutors argued these were related to personal matters. The judge, Juan Merchan, postponed sentencing to September 18 to allow Trump's lawyers to present their case. If the conviction is upheld, sentencing will proceed, and Trump can then appeal to a higher court.Trump hush money prosecutors say conviction should stand despite immunity ruling | ReutersThis week's closing theme is by Ludwig van Beethoven, a composer of some note.Ludwig van Beethoven, one of the most revered composers in the history of Western music, was born in 1770 in Bonn, Germany. His innovative compositions bridged the Classical and Romantic eras, leaving an indelible mark on music that continues to inspire and move audiences worldwide. Despite becoming profoundly deaf in his later years, Beethoven's prolific output includes symphonies, concertos, string quartets, and piano sonatas, showcasing his genius and resilience.One of his most remarkable works is the Piano Sonata No. 32 in C minor, Op. 111, completed on July 28, 1822. This sonata is the last of Beethoven's 32 piano sonatas, representing the culmination of his explorations in the genre. The piece is notable for its profound depth, structural innovation, and emotional intensity, characteristics that reflect Beethoven's mature style.The sonata consists of two contrasting movements. The first movement, "Maestoso - Allegro Con Brio Ed Appassionato," opens with a dramatic, solemn introduction that sets the stage for the ensuing allegro. This section is marked by its passionate energy, dynamic contrasts, and intricate rhythms, driving forward with a relentless, almost fateful momentum. The movement's thematic material is both complex and expressive, embodying Beethoven's masterful ability to fuse technical brilliance with deep emotional expression.The "Maestoso - Allegro Con Brio Ed Appassionato" serves as a testament to Beethoven's ingenuity and his capacity to convey profound human experiences through music. It challenges the performer with its technical demands while offering listeners a rich, emotional journey. The sonata's significance lies not only in its technical mastery but also in its philosophical depth, inviting interpretations that delve into the realms of struggle, resolution, and transcendence.As we close our week of shows we invite you to immerse yourself in the powerful and evocative sounds of Beethoven's Piano Sonata No. 32 in C minor, Op. 111.

The national conversation on tips hit overdrive this week as former president Trump's new cause - eliminating taxes on tipped income - has found its way into the Republican party platform at the upcoming convention. We'll discuss what that means to the industry, as well as talk about the big win in Ohio and significant developments in Massachusetts. And the Supreme Court continues to alter the regulatory environment with regard to how we run our businesses. The latest decision revoking the Chevron doctrine could be the most important one of all. We'll do a deep dive into that. We'll talk about those issues and wrap it up with the legislative scorecard.

Julie and Matt had their friend Doug the bird caller back to review how God calls people into His family. They talked to Ryan, who helps kids get adopted into safe families as a court-appointed advocate. God gives adopted children new hearts to love and obey Him as part of His eternal family, the church. Anyone can be adopted by admitting they are a sinner, believing Jesus died for their sins, and saying Jesus is their Lord. Helpful Definitions: ADOPTION — When someone is given a place in a family even though they weren't born into that family. THE CHURCH — All the people who know, love, trust, and obey Jesus all over the world!  Scripture Reference: Joshua 6:22-23 5-Second Fly Through Review: Who is the family of God?
