This and all episodes at: https://aiandyou.net/ . Studying human intelligence is a matter of neuroscience, and creating software is a matter of computing, so creating artificial intelligence would be at the intersection of those fields, called computational neuroscience, and I have with me one of the founders of that field. Tomaso Poggio is the Eugene McDermott professor in the Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences at MIT and the Director of the Center for Brains, Minds, and Machines. He is a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and a founding fellow of the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence. His home page says that he “develops models of brain function that illuminate human intelligence and builds intelligent machines that can mimic human performance.” Wow. His new book, Brains, Minds, Machines, The Mystery of Human Intelligence, the Enigmas of the Artificial, comes out this summer. Tomaso defines computational neuroscience, and then we talk about computation in the human brain, how large language models landed for him, holography, limitations of LLMs, and backpropagation equivalents in the human brain. All this plus our usual look at today's AI headlines! Transcript and URLs referenced at HumanCusp Blog.        

Jessica Fuentes speaks with Cameron Schoepp, professor and Graduate Studio Art Coordinator at Texas Christian University in Fort Worth, about his experience as a grad student, TCU's MFA program, and advice for artists considering an MFA. “For me, one of the most important things in a graduate program is defending the time in the studio. That time in the studio is so important; you must allow the student time to work. It's easy to fill every moment of their day, and you have to guard against that.” See related readings here: https://glasstire.com/2026/05/31/art-dirt-talking-about-mfa-programs-with-cameron-schoepp/ Thanks to this week's podcast sponsor, CASETA, the Center for the Advancement and Study of Early Texas Art, which is presenting its annual Symposium and Texas Art Fair from Friday, June 19, through Sunday, June 21, at the Witte Museum in San Antonio.

In this episode of ACM ByteCast, Rashmi Mohan hosts 2025 ACM Fellow Cynthia Rudin, the Gilbert, Louis, and Edward Lehrman Distinguished Professor of Computer Science, Electrical and Computer Engineering, Statistical Science, Mathematics, and Biostatistics and Bioinformatics at Duke University, where she leads the Interpretable Machine Learning Lab. Her lab, which seeks to design predictive ML models that people can understand, focuses on areas including healthcare, criminal justice, and energy reliability. Among her honors, she has received the Squirrel Award for Artificial Intelligence from the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AAAI), as well as the IJCAI John McCarthy Award. Rudin was recently named an ACM Fellow for contributions to and leadership in interpretable machine learning and societal applications. In the interview, Cynthia clarifies the crucial distinction between "interpretable" and “explainable" AI and makes the argument that true interpretability is foundational to trustworthy, ethical AI. She shares her extensive field experience collaborating with Con Edison engineers on power grid maintenance, neurologists on medical diagnostics, and the Cambridge Police Department on crime series detection, countering the widespread industry myth that AI performance must be sacrificed for transparency. She describes an innovative paradigm her lab developed to solve the "interaction bottleneck" between data scientists and domain experts, leveraging "Rashomon sets" to generate millions of equally accurate models simultaneously, using human-computer interaction (HCI) tools to create visual, encyclopedia-like interfaces.

How do we know what a homeopathic remedy actually does?That question takes Denise and Alastair into one of the things that truly sets homeopathy apart: provings.In this episode, they talk about how remedy knowledge is gathered, why Hahnemann insisted that it come through experience — not “mere intellectual exertion” — and why the paper trail behind our materia medica matters. They also look at what happens when that trail gets muddy: incomplete provings, speculative remedy pictures, intellectual shortcuts, and remedies being used or sold without clear proving information.The conversation moves from Causticum and Hahnemann's own proving symptoms to Langhammer, Scholten's periodic table work, nosodes, isopathy, and the modern temptation to simplify what was never meant to be simplistic.If you've ever wondered where remedy pictures come from — or how to think more critically about what's in the materia medica — this episode is for you.Strange, Rare & Peculiar is a weekly podcast with Denise Straiges and Alastair Gray of the Institute for the Advancement of Homeopathy and the Academy of Homeopathy Education.This season, we're focusing on truth — what it means to Aude Sapere (“dare to know”) in homeopathy today. From Hahnemann's original insights to the realities of modern practice, research, and education, Denise and Alastair bring over 50 years of experience to conversations that challenge assumptions and invite curiosity.

On May 15, Alberta and Ottawa announced updates to their MOU on carbon markets and energy policy, aimed at advancing a greenfield oil pipeline proposal to Asian markets by July 1, with possible construction readiness after September 2027. The agreement lowers industrial carbon compliance costs and introduces a TIER price floor (called a minimum transfer price), although industry groups still argue that costs remain too high. The new framework also introduces additional complexity and uncertainty around carbon markets. While the deal marks progress toward a West Coast oil export pipeline, key uncertainties remain regarding commitments to the Oil Sands Alliance Pathways CCS project, opposition in British Columbia, and the future of the Clean Electricity Regulations (CER). On May 14, the federal government also announced a national electricity strategy. The strategy includes plans for regional electricity planning, along with proposed measures such as extending the Clean Electricity ITC to certain intra-provincial transmission projects and a plan to consult on added flexibility to the CER. To help Peter and Jackie unpack this wave of policy announcements and their implications for carbon markets and investment, they are joined by Rachel Walsh, Director and Head of Carbon Strategy and Partnerships at BMO Capital Markets. Content referenced in this podcast: Government of Canada, Powering Canada Strong: A National Strategy for an Electrified Canadian Economy (May 14, 2026) Prime Minister's Office, Canada and Alberta strike agreement to diversify our exports, reduce emissions, and build a stronger economy (May 15, 2026) Prime Minister's Office, Implementation Agreement for the Canada-Alberta MOU of November 27, 2026 (May 15, 2026) Alberta Government, Release on the updates to the Canada-Alberta MOU Agreement (May 15, 2026) Studio.Energy, Carbon Competitiveness and Canada's Oil Industry (April 21, 2026) Please review our disclaimer at: https://www.arcenergyinstitute.com/disclaimer/ Check us out on social media: X (Twitter): @arcenergyinstLinkedIn: @ARC Energy Research Institute Subscribe to ARC Energy Ideas PodcastApple PodcastsAmazon MusicSpotify

In Stories of Struggle: The Clash over Civil Rights in South Carolina (U South Carolina Press, 2020), longtime journalist Claudia Smith Brinson details the lynchings, beatings, bombings, cross burnings, death threats, arson, and venomous hatred that black South Carolinians endured―as well as the astonishing courage, devotion, dignity, and compassion of those who risked their lives for equality. Through extensive research and interviews with more than one hundred fifty civil rights activists, many of whom had never shared their stories with anyone, Brinson chronicles twenty pivotal years of petitioning, preaching, picketing, boycotting, marching, and holding sit-ins. Participants' use of nonviolent direct action altered the landscape of civil rights in South Carolina and reverberated throughout the South. These firsthand accounts include those of the unsung petitioners who risked their lives by supporting Summerton's Briggs v. Elliot, a lawsuit that led to the historic Brown v. Board of Education decision; the thousands of students who were arrested and jailed in 1960 for protests in Rock Hill, Orangeburg, Denmark, Columbia, and Sumter; and the black female employees and leaders who defied a governor and his armed troops during the 1969 hospital strike in Charleston. Brinson also highlights contributions made by remarkable but lesser-known activists, including James M. Hinton Sr., president of the South Carolina Conference of Branches of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People; Thomas W. Gaither, Congress of Racial Equality field secretary and scout for the Freedom Rides; Charles F. McDew, a South Carolina State College student and co-founder of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee; and Mary Moultrie, grassroots leader of the 1969 hospital workers' strike. These intimate stories of courage and conviction, both heartbreaking and inspiring, shine a light on the progress achieved by nonviolent civil rights activists while also revealing white South Carolinians' often violent resistance to change. Although significant racial disparities remain, the sacrifices of these brave men and women produced real progress―and hope for the future.

     Slam the Gavel welcomes back Amanda Story who was last on Season 4, Episode 142, and Crystal Salazar Season 5, Episode 174.        Today we discussed the major human rights issue in the United States — the fact that America still does not have a fully independent National Human Rights Institution (NHRI) aligned with the UN Paris Principles, despite international efforts dating back to the 1990s.       In 2023, the NHRI for USA campaign publicly pushed for the creation of one, and in 2025 the Institute for Advancement of Justice & Human Rights (IAJ) launched as an independent organization working toward human rights investigations, accountability, and advocacy surrounding issues such as family court abuses, CPS misconduct, disability rights, and systemic due process concerns.       We talked about both the broader national implications and Crystal's personal experience — including her Texas CPS case, international human rights findings connected to her situation, and her current asylum journey to the UK — as part of a larger conversation about why independent human rights oversight in the U.S. matters.https://nhriforusa.org/abouthttps://www.iaj.institute/To Reach Amanda Story and Crystal Salazar: iajvolunteer2501@gmail.comTik tok @crystal.salazar04Texas Tribune Link: https://www.texastribune.org/2024/10/11/texas-foster-care-janis-jack-fifth-circuit/Supportshow(https://www.buymeacoffee.com/maryannpetri)Maryann Petri: dismantlingfamilycourtcorruption.comhttps://www.tiktok.com/@maryannpetriFacebook:  https://youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcast?si=INW9XaTyprKsaDklhttps://substack.com/@maryannpetri?r=kd7n6&utm_medium=iosInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/guitarpeace/Pinterest: Slam The Gavel Podcast/@guitarpeaceLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maryann-petri-62a46b1ab/  Twitter https://x.com/PetriMaryannEzlegalsuit.com   https://ko-fi.com/maryannpetrihttps://www.zazzle.com/store/slam_the_gavel/aboout*DISCLAIMER* The use of this information is at the viewer/user's own risk.

The Gospel Advances through Hard Situations

Ralph speaks to Dr. Marina Nord of the V-Dem Institute about this year's V-Dem Democracy Report and how the Trump Administration is dismantling democracy in the US. Then, Ralph welcomes Dr. Ralph Estes to discuss corporations' shady accounting practices.Dr. Marina Nord is a postdoctoral research fellow at the V-Dem Institute. She is co-author of V-Dem's Democracy Report 2026: “Unraveling The Democratic Era?”.Only six countries during the 21st century have registered larger one-year drops on the aggregate Liberal Democracy Index [than the United States] —and all of them are coups. If you look at the last almost 250 years (so for which we have data going back to 1789), there were only thirty-five instances of more rapid dismantling of democracy—almost all of them were either military coups or international interventions.Dr. Marina NordWe do not measure [Trump's] words. We measure how institutions function de facto. And what is a lot more important for us is not only what he says, but how other institutions (checks and balances) function to constrain him. And one of the things that we see, for example, is that Congress is not constraining him in any way. And this is very, very serious, because if you have a President who violates the law, who violates the Constitution, you should have the judiciary who stand up, the Supreme Court who should stand up to protect the Constitution. You should have the Congress who is not allowed to [abdicate power to the executive]. And this is something that is very, very concerning, a lot more concerning than what Trump is saying. What I find a lot more concerning is that there are no checks and balances to constrain him.Dr. Marina NordWhen looking at the data, we also looked at the countries who managed to stop autocrats similar to Trump. And we tried to analyze which factors contributed to stopping democratic backsliding and turning it around. So research shows that, of course, there is no single recipe, but there are several combinations of factors that may help. One of them is: use whatever institutional safeguards that you still have in the United States…The second thing that we know that still works quite well is robust societal action. And by that we mean not only demonstrations similar to the No Kings protests, but sustained protests, mass pro-democracy protests…And then, of course, one of the things that still should be a possibility to turn things around is the midterm elections.Dr. Marina NordDr. Ralph Estes is Emeritus professor of business and accounting at American University in Washington, D.C., co-founder and vice president of The Center for Advancement of Public Policy, and Emeritus Trustee at the Institute for Policy Studies. He is the author of several books, including Tyranny of the Bottom Line: Why Corporations Make Good People Do Bad Things and Fight the Corpocracy, Take Back Democracy: A Mad As Hell Guide for the 99%.The public has no way of fairly evaluating a corporation except through the press, what it sees in corporate press releases and their claims about being, for example, environmentally responsible and very favorable to customers. And there are no measures on that. Corporation doesn't give us any. Corporation produces a set of financial statements. You won't know how relevant those financial statements are to you and me. They're not relevant at all… In terms of social performance, there's nothing in the corporate reports, the formal reports, that is reliable. Again, you're stuck with what the corporation claims or what the politicians who are lobbying for contributions will admit corporations do… But this is a problem. If the corporation doesn't report it, if the citizens don't know about it, the politicians can try to do something, but they have to start from scratch.Dr. Ralph EstesNews 5/15/26* We begin this week with a bombshell story from Latin America. This week, El País broke what they are calling “Hondurasgate,” an expose centering on leaked audio recordings of conversations between President Donald Trump, Argentinian President Javier Milei and former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández – who was convicted and sentenced to 45 years in prison on drug trafficking charges in the U.S. but pardoned by Trump last year. In these leaked recordings, the three current and former heads of state discuss the creation of a “channel of spreading fake news with the intention of misinforming and destabilizing” Leftist governments in the region, including those of Gustavo Petro in Colombia and Claudia Sheinbaum in Mexico. According to this report, the leaks reveal the involvement of another world leader – Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu – in the decision to pardon Hernández. El País writes the leaks prove the pardoning of Hernández was “not a gesture of clemency, but the down payment of a broader agreement.” Expect more damning information to come out as more recordings are unearthed, even if so far the American media has largely blacked out this stunning story.* At the same time the Trump administration is seeking to subtly undermine governments like Mexico's, they are executing considerably less subtle covert operations there as well. On March 28th, an explosion blew up the car of alleged narco Francisco Beltran just outside Mexico City. CNN now reports that, while “Mexican authorities have maintained extreme secrecy around the explosion,” multiple sources confirm that this was “a targeted assassination,” carried out by the CIA. Not only that, this operation is reportedly just one of several assassinations carried out by the CIA against rank-and-file cartel members on foreign soil which began last year. Troublingly, CNN notes these operations could be illegal under Mexican law, which prohibits foreign agents from participating in law enforcement operations without the express permission of the federal government. Omar Garcia Harfuch, Mexico's Secretary of Security released a statement indicating that the Mexican government has not granted any such permission, writing “The Government of Mexico categorically rejects any version that seeks to normalize, justify, or suggest the existence of lethal, covert, or unilateral operations by foreign agencies on national territory.”* One ironic aspect of the joint right-wing destabilization effort and CIA covert operations campaign both currently underway in Mexico is the fact that the Sheinbaum government has affected a stunning reduction in murders throughout the country. According to Mexico Solidarity Media, the daily average of intentional homicides has been reduced by 40% between the beginning of the Sheinbaum administration in October 2024 and April 30, 2026, with that last month hitting the lowest level in over a decade – comparable in fact to the United States. We can only hope that Sheinbaum is able to stay the course and continue to drive down the murder rate while simultaneously avoiding the destabilization campaigns being waged against her government.* In Colombia, another state targeted in the Hondurasgate plot, Ivan Cepeda continues to consolidate progressive forces in that country ahead of the presidential election, aiming for a first round victory. This week, Luis Gilberto Murillo, a center-left presidential candidate, dropped out and endorsed Cepeda. While Murillo never rose very high in the polls, he has held high positions in the Colombian government – including Minister of Environment and governor of the department of Choco as well as Colombia's ambassador to the United States and later foreign minister under Gustavo Petro.Colombia One notes that this is the second such withdrawal in recent weeks, with Senator Clara López doing the same, indicating a serious intention among the progressive forces in Colombia to stave off a second round of the presidential election, which could see the right-wing consolidate against Cepeda in a way they have thus far been unable to do ahead of the first round.* Meanwhile, El Salvador's Nayib Bukele, a standard bearer for the Latin American Right and a close ally of President Trump, is mired in a new scandal involving his dealings with the MS-13 gang and his ensuing attempts to silence the press. According to PBS, last month the Salvadoran outlet El Faro, in conjunction with PBS FRONTLINE released a documentary titled The Deal: Trump, Bukele & the Gangs of El Salvador, which “uncovered evidence that Bukele's administration had offered privileges to gang leaders in prison in exchange for a reduction in homicides and voter support in territories the gangs controlled.” Now, in retaliation for publishing this story, Bukele has reportedly “frozen the personal assets of two of [El Faro's] shareholders,” including editor-in-chief Carlos Dada who said in a press conference that “These are not fiscal measures…They are political measures trying to silence us.” This article notes that the facts presented in The Deal are particularly damning to Bukele, because of his public claims that he “would never negotiate with gangs” because it would grant them legitimacy. Just as it is ironic that the Trump administration is seeking to destabilize the Mexican government while it dramatically reduces murders, so too is it ironic that it is seeking to bolster the Bukele regime even as it carries out secretive deals with the very gangs the U.S. claims to be fighting.* In a wholly different part of the world, the centrist Labour Party government of Keir Starmer in the UK is teetering on the brink of collapse. Starmer's popularity has been declining precipitously ever since he entered office, but the crisis of confidence from within his own party accelerated after the disastrous results of the May 7th local elections. Now, according to CNN, over 100 members of his party in Parliament are calling for him to resign, but the only way to trigger a leadership challenge is for at least 81 Labour MPs to coalesce around a single challenger – and as yet, none have crossed that threshold. Starmer himself has refused to stand down, challenging any other claimants to come forward. Health Secretary Wes Streeting has come the closest to openly challenging Starmer, even resigning his post in the government but stopping short of formally announcing a leadership challenge, the BBC reports. For now, Starmer continues to cling to power but each day could be his last at No. 10.* Turning to American foreign policy news, this week the Senate voted down yet another War Powers Resolution on Iran – the seventh such attempt since the war began in late February. What is notable about this resolution is that it won the support of the most GOP Senators yet – Rand Paul of Kentucky, Susan Collins of Maine and Lisa Murkowski of Alaska – yet still failed by a margin of 50-49 because Democratic Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania crossed party lines to vote against the resolution. This from CBS. Even with Fetterman's disloyalty, this vote is significant for the number of Republicans who broke ranks, perhaps indicating a growing unease with the war and particularly its impact on the price of consumer goods, beginning with gasoline and cascading from there.* In more congressional news, Southern states are scrambling to act in the wake of the Callais decision. In South Carolina and Mississippi, state officials have rejected attempts to call special sessions to redraw congressional maps before this year's midterms. But, NPR reports Alabama is moving towards a new map that, like Louisiana, will likely include just one single largely Black, Democratic-leaning congressional district. However, even though some of these states are holding off on redrawing these districts today, it does not mean those districts will be safe tomorrow. And in Tennessee, where the legislature is moving ahead with a plan to do away with the state's majority Black 9th congressional district in a special session – resulting in a revolt by Democrats in the legislature – the Republicans are retaliating by stripping all Democrats from their standing committee seats for “creating disorder,” per StateAffairs.com. Expect this process to get more contentious, and plain uglier, as it grinds ahead.* Next, a story in Fortune highlights the cost of data center construction. According to this story, the nearly 50,000 permanent residents of the California ski resort town of Lake Tahoe – which regularly attracts 25 to 28 million visitors annually – will soon be disconnected from their traditional power source, NV Energy. NV supplies the power to Liberty Utilities, which services the area directly, and NV has informed Liberty that it will stop providing power after May 2027. That power will instead be redirected to data centers, leaving Liberty Utilities less than a year to find another power source. This story notes that “Northern Nevada has become one of the fastest-growing data-center corridors in the country,” with Google, Apple, and Microsoft all having built or planning to build facilities in the area. Gallingly, just last fall NV Energy's director of business development said the company was “eager to serve the new industrial load” but that it would not “impact [their] existing customer base.” This is a troubling preview of what may come as data center expansion continues unchecked.* Finally, in a story that proves once again that corporate greed knows no limits, the Lever is out with a new report on a class-action lawsuit by consumers against “private equity-backed bowling giant Bowlero.” According to the Lever, the suit accuses Bowlero of executing a “‘multi-year anticompetitive scheme to consolidate bowling centers,' which has led to skyrocketing bowling prices, deteriorating lanes, and ‘the veritable destruction of the decades-old pastime of bowling in America.'” The numbers back up this narrative. Bowlero, which had just six locations in 2012, has exploded to 350 today. The company is said to control roughly 35 percent of U.S. bowling revenue – and 95% of all lanes in some markets – as well as acquiring the Professional Bowling Association itself. As with any monopoly, once it had cornered the market Bowlero proceeded to jack up prices, even using AI to do so algorithmically. In a sense, this is a story we have all heard too many times to be surprised, but we can still be shocked by the base greed of corporate executives, even in something as seemingly anodyne as the bowling industry.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

Influential scholar W.E.B Du Bois lived through many significant periods for Black Civil Rights in America, from being born just 5 years after the Emancipation Proclamation, documenting Reconstruction, and the Civil Rights Movement of the 20th century. He was also a New Yorker, living for 10 years in Brooklyn Heights before moving to Ghana, where he died the day before the March on Washington at the age of 95. A new two-hour documentary, 'W.E.B. Du Bois: Rebel With A Cause,' tells the full life story Du Bois, as part of PBS's American Masters series. Director Rita Coburn discusses her work on the film, premiering on May 19 at 9pm.

Stay connected with us at americangroundradio.com, on Facebook, and Instagram. You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for May 14, 2026. We open with a statement from the NAACP Charlotte Mecklenburg branch that we believe represents peak racial politics in modern America — declaring it is, quote, seriously disturbing for white folks to be lobbying to be the interim mayor of Charlotte because the outgoing mayor is a black woman. We play it straight. We ask the question nobody wants to ask out loud — if a major civic organization had said it was disturbing for black candidates to seek a position because the outgoing officeholder was white, what would happen? We both know the answer. We also point out the obvious irony of an organization called the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People lecturing anyone else about racist language. And we make the foundational argument — the moment politics stops asking who is best for the job and starts asking what color of skin should hold this seat, you are no longer operating inside the framework of equal citizenship. You are inside racial factionalism. And that is incompatible with the Declaration of Independence. In our Top 3 Things You Need to Know, Louisiana Senator John Kennedy pushed through a rule change on a voice vote that will withhold senators' salaries the next time there is a government shutdown — a measure he first proposed during the last Democrat-caused DHS shutdown and couldn't get passed. It goes into effect after this fall's elections. Then Georgia Governor Brian Kemp called a special session to redraw the state's congressional districts — potentially adding two Republican seats — though the new maps won't take effect until 2028. And two sitting members of Congress have been missing from Washington for over a month with no explanation — Democrat Frederica Wilson of South Florida, whose staff has been recycling old photos on social media as if they were recent, and Republican Thomas Kean Jr. of New Jersey, who finally responded to Speaker Johnson's outreach by saying he was experiencing health difficulties. Our American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson tackle a deeply personal question — when was the last time you felt euphoric? Kimberly shares the moment she was driving home from the grocery store with all her kids home and was hit by sudden joy — followed immediately by the crushing realization it was the first time she had felt that way since her mother died. Teri talks about her son getting a full ride to SMU Law School and her daughter announcing a pregnancy. And Stephen admits he can't remember the last time he felt euphoric — and explains why that's actually okay. We dig into the Supreme Court's ruling allowing mail-order chemical abortions to continue while legal challenges proceed — and make the medical case that no responsible physician should be prescribing mifepristone without seeing the patient in person. We explain the ectopic pregnancy danger in detail — how telemedicine cannot diagnose it, how the abortion pill will not resolve it, how it can cause organ rupture and sepsis, and how a young woman alone in her apartment experiencing severe complications cannot solve those problems with a Zoom call. In our Digging Deep segment, we follow two parallel fraud stories that together tell the same national story. In Minnesota, House Republicans released a report showing the Walz administration was aware of massive Medicaid fraud as early as 2019 and not only failed to act but created a culture that allowed the fraud to explode. In Florida, the founder of Health Splash was convicted for a $1 billion Medicare fraud conspiracy involving medically unnecessary orthotic braces. And in both Minnesota and California, Dr. Oz cut off 800 providers suspected of fraud — and fewer than 20 of them called to contest it. That means at least 780 were outright fraudsters. We also cover the Trump administration withholding $1.3 billion in Medicaid payments to California for failing to address the problem. We also cover the Department of Justice's Civil Rights Division investigation into Yale Medical School — where black and Hispanic applicants allegedly received significantly better odds of admission than white and Asian applicants with identical academic credentials. We make the case that medicine should be the most merit-driven profession on earth, and that public suspicion about whether doctors are chosen for competence or for racial checkboxes harms everyone — including the patients they treat. For our Bright Spot, independent journalist Alex Berenson — formerly of the New York Times, banned from Twitter in 2021 at the direct pressure of the Biden administration for saying the mRNA vaccine doesn't stop infection or transmission — has won his First Amendment lawsuit and received a formal written admission from the United States government that it did in fact violate his constitutional rights by coercing social media companies to suppress his speech. He also received $150,000. We note that Pfizer executives were directly involved in pressuring the administration to silence him. And we share that AGR itself was shadow-banned and nearly removed from YouTube for saying the same things Berenson was banned for saying. And we close with Dawn Kraft who enrolled in medical school after her husband Carl survived a brain hemorrhage and they both started working on their bucket lists. This spring, Dawn graduated from St. James School of Medicine at the age of 72, becoming the oldest graduate in the school's history. She took out no loans.

In this episode of Baltic Ways, Dr. Indra Ekmanis speaks with Professors Violeta Davoliūtė and Ene Kõresaar about their contributions to a special issue of Slovak Ethnology. Co-edited by Davoliūtė, the issue focuses on slow memory. Kõresaar, together with colleague Kristi Jõesalu (who contributed to this episode outside of the recording), brought comparative research on slow conflict in Baltic history museums and the representation of Russophone minorities to the issue. The discussion also explores the academic value of slowing down in research and how this contrasts with the broader pressures to publish quick results.Image: Wikipedia | NacionalinismuziejusBaltic Ways is a podcast from the Association for the Advancement of Baltic Studies, produced in partnership with the Baltic Initiative at the Foreign Policy Research Institute.

Our semester-long hiatus is over! We've missed you, friends, and we wanted to check in this spring. We've both been busy with many things—both in our work here in the Education department at Dordt University, and in other things we also get to do. In this episode, Abby shares about her adventures in school leadership, and Dave shares about his adventures traveling all over the place. We talk about things we are continuing to learn even as we teach, the fun things we got to do this year, and a fair bit about the role of AI in education today (which is one of Dave's favorite topics to talk about lately!) We hope that this episode is also an encouragement to you, dear listeners, as we draw toward the end of this academic year. And don't worry; we plan to get back on a more regular recording schedule in the fall! In this episode, Dave mentioned a professional development opportunity he is leading through the Center for the Advancement of Christian Education. “Teach Like a Human” is a year-long professional development plan that schools can use to be better prepared for the joys and concerns of teaching, learning, and leading in the age of AI.

Recent data suggests that more than half of nonprofit professionals are considering leaving their jobs — and those numbers climb even higher for frontline fundraisers. In today's episode, Sadé Dozan from Borealis Philanthropy joins Russ Phaneuf to discuss the "invisible labor" that might be burning you out faster than your actual workload. Tune in to learn how your lived experience can be a powerful asset instead of "baggage," ways to set internal boundaries to protect your emotional capacity when the work feels deeply personal, and why leadership needs to support a fundraiser's whole identity to finally break the cycle of employee turnover.

Efforts to improve metabolic health through dietary interventions often come with trade-offs. Some approaches that reduce obesity or extend lifespan in laboratory models can also negatively affect other tissues, including bone. One example is sulfur amino acid restriction (SAAR), a diet low in methionine and lacking cysteine that has repeatedly shown strong anti-obesity effects in animal studies. However, despite these promising metabolic benefits, SAAR has also been associated with reduced bone mineral density, weaker bones, and increased marrow fat accumulation. This has led researchers to ask whether the metabolic benefits of SAAR can be separated from its harmful skeletal effects. A new research paper was published in Volume 18 of Aging-US, titled “D, L-Buthionine-(S, R)-sulfoximine recapitulates the anti-obesity effects of sulfur amino acid restriction without the associated deleterious effects on bone in male mice.” The researchers investigated whether those metabolic benefits could be achieved without the same harmful effects on bone. The study was led by first author Naidu B. Ommi and corresponding author Sailendra N. Nichenametla from the Orentreich Foundation for the Advancement of Science Inc., in collaboration with Dwight A. L. Mattocks from the same institution and Mark C. Horowitz from the Yale University School of Medicine.

In Episode 117 of Strange, Rare, and Peculiar, Denise Straiges and Alastair Gray answer listener questions about what happens when homeopathic principles meet real-life complexity.They take on polypharmacy in emergency situations, veterinary homeopathy with traumatized rescue dogs, and the harder question many people quietly carry: What if I've tried homeopathy—and nothing changed?Get your Organon out for this one. Denise and Alastair discuss Aphorisms 148 and 260, exploring what Hahnemann had to say about the labor of true homeopathic practice, obstacles to cure, and why homeopathy asks for more than shortcuts.In this episode:When, if ever, more than one remedy makes senseHomeopathy for animals in acute stressWhy “nothing happened” may not always mean nothing happenedObstacles to cure and case managementHahnemann, roasted pigeons, and the work homeopathy requiresStrange, Rare & Peculiar is a weekly podcast with Denise Straiges and Alastair Gray of the Institute for the Advancement of Homeopathy and the Academy of Homeopathy Education.This season, we're focusing on truth — what it means to Aude Sapere (“dare to know”) in homeopathy today.

UNC Charlotte is rewriting what modern university advancement can look like—fast, collaborative, and deeply rooted in place. In this episode of Talking Tactics with Safaniya Stevenson, Beth Krigler and Penny Hawkins unpack how the “For the Love of Charlotte” campaign helped fuel a record-breaking surge in giving, including an extraordinary rise in non-alumni engagement and a fundraising trajectory that's set to hit its $500M goal years ahead of schedule. From building a culture of “getting to yes” to breaking down silos across athletics, academics, and alumni relations, this conversation reveals how intentional alignment, shared language, and community-driven strategy can transform fundraising from transactional efforts into sustained momentum. Guest Names:  Beth Crigler, Vice Chancellor or University Advancemnt, University of North Carolina Charlotte  Penny Hawkins, Deputy Athletic Director, Chief Enterprise Philanthropy Officer, University of North Carolina Charlotte Guest Socials:  Penny: https://www.linkedin.com/in/penny-hawkins-cfre-68ab893/ Beth: https://www.linkedin.com/in/beth-crigler-cfre-139889114/ Guest Bios:  Penny Hawkins is Deputy Athletic Director and Chief Philanthropy Officer at UNC Charlotte, where she leads philanthropic strategy for Charlotte Athletics while also serving as Associate Vice Chancellor for Development.

In 2022, she was appointed Associate Vice Chancellor for Development, where she has helped shape and execute some of the institution's most ambitious fundraising efforts. Her leadership has been instrumental in advancing the For the Love of Charlotte campaign, a $500 million initiative that has already secured $400 million in commitments and continues to build momentum toward its goal. Hawkins has played a key role in UNC Charlotte's record-setting philanthropic achievements, including contributing to the University's first-ever $100 million fundraising year in FY25 and helping secure transformative gifts such as a $23 million commitment from the Mebane Foundation in support of literacy education. During Niner Nation Gives 2026, she helped lead Charlotte Athletics to a historic performance, more than doubling its previous record with $2.2 million raised through 1,852 gifts.

A Certified Fundraising Executive and graduate of UNC Chapel Hill, she is also an active leader within the Association of Fundraising Professionals. Across her career, Hawkins has been recognized for building strong donor relationships, aligning philanthropic strategy with institutional vision, and helping organizations translate momentum into long-term impact—particularly in support of student success and community advancement. Beth Derrick Crigler is vice chancellor for advancement at UNC Charlotte, where she leads the University's philanthropic strategy, alumni engagement, advancement operations, external relations, university events, and communications. She was appointed to the role following a national search, having previously served in the position in an interim capacity since July 2022. Since joining UNC Charlotte in 2018 as associate vice chancellor of development, Crigler has played a central role in advancing the University's fundraising momentum, including helping to complete the $200 million Exponential Campaign, which ultimately closed at more than $218 million. Under her leadership, the University has continued to exceed annual fundraising goals and recently achieved record-setting success with its most successful Niner Nation Gives campaign to date, alongside securing transformative support such as a historic gift from the Mebane Foundation for literacy education and raising more than $60 million toward strategic priorities. A 20-year veteran of the development profession, Crigler has raised more than $130 million for Charlotte-area charitable organizations and more than $1 billion for nonprofits across North Carolina. Prior to UNC Charlotte, she served as senior director of principal and leadership gifts for the Novant Health Foundation and has held leadership roles with organizations including Charlotte Latin School, the U.S. National Whitewater Center, Sharon Towers, and the Cabarrus County Boys & Girls Club. A Certified Fundraising Executive and graduate of the University of South Carolina, Crigler is also active in the broader Charlotte community, serving on the Board of Directors of Charlotte Mecklenburg Housing Partnership and Camp Debbie Lou, a family camp she helped found for children with cancer. - - - -Connect With Our Host:Safaniya Stevensonhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/safaniyastevenson/ About The Enrollify Podcast Network:Talking Tactics is a part of the Enrollify Podcast Network.

In this episode of the Shift AI Podcast, Steve Mantle, Founder and CEO of Innov8.ag, Raj Khosla, Dean of the College of Agricultural, Human, and Natural Resources at Washington State University, and John Cox, soil scientist and fresh produce industry operator, join host Boaz Ashkenazy for a wide-ranging panel conversation on how AI and emerging technology are transforming agriculture from the ground up.Steve, Raj, and John each bring a distinct lens to the conversation — startup founder, academic dean, and hands-on operator — and together they paint a vivid picture of where precision agriculture has been and where it is going. The discussion opens with the human side of farming: the generational knowledge, seasonal intuition, and field-level pattern recognition that has defined agriculture for centuries.The panel also covers infrastructure realities, edge computing, rural connectivity gaps, ERP systems that still require on-premise servers, and the economic pressures pushing farmers to demand AI that delivers margin today, not in five years. The conversation closes with each guest sharing their two-word vision for the future of AI in agriculture: physical AI, bright and better, and hopeful foresight.This episode is essential listening for anyone who wants to understand how AI is moving beyond the office and into the fields, orchards, and packing houses that feed the world.

Produced by KSQD 90.7, 89.5 & 89.7FMThe American Dream at its best is an ethical ideal and a moral compass. If respected and sustained, it can guide the United States through Trump 2.0. Anchored in the US Constitution, Saving the American Dream features meditations for dark times. Meditations are intentional acts of focused attention. They seek insight—a clear and deep understanding—about critical issues.What, for example, is most important for the United States today? Are we Americans doing the best we can? How may inquiry about the American Dream advance the reflection and action needed now to support and defend the Constitution of the United States?Saving the American Dream is a journey that goes where such questionslead. Its fundamental premise is that individuals moved to communal action by warned awareness and committed resistance are indispensable to meet challenges that grow by the day. Guidance from reliable American writers—philosophers, historians, novelists, poets, essayists, religious thinkers—maps the way.”Interview Guest: John Roth, is the Edward J.

From heat-related illness and overcrowded emergency departments to infectious disease risks such as measles, influenza, COVID-19, novel influenza viruses, and endemic threats like Lassa fever, the conversation explores why preparedness for mass gatherings extends far beyond a single disease focus.Dr. Evans emphasizes the importance of situational awareness tools, including CDC resources and Boston University's Beacon platform, while reminding listeners that screening alone is never perfect. The episode highlights the continued importance of core infection prevention practices such as source control, masking when appropriate, hand hygiene, and obtaining detailed travel and exposure histories. Together, Jill Morgan and Dr. Laura Evans reinforce the principle of “identify, isolate, and inform,” discuss the value of understanding local and regional escalation pathways, and examine how World Cup planning can strengthen everyday healthcare preparedness nationwide.Questions or comments for NETEC?

Most workplaces don't quite know what to do with faith. It often gets simplified, avoided, or treated as something too divisive to bring into professional life. Elaine Ecklund studies what happens when people try to leave that part of themselves outside the workplace, and what is lost when they do. Her research shows that faith is rarely just about religion. It becomes a window into bigger tensions around ethics, identity, belonging, and the struggle to feel fully present at work. In this episode, Dart and Elaine discuss how faith shapes the experience of work, why workplaces often misunderstand religion, and what designing for people of faith can teach us about designing work for everyone.Elaine Ecklund is a sociologist at Rice University and director of the Boniuk Institute for the Study and Advancement of Religious Tolerance. She studies religion, work, science, and how people make meaning in everyday life.In this episode, Dart and Elaine discuss:- Why workplaces avoid conversations about faith- What happens when belief stays hidden- Faith as part of bringing one's whole self- How people decide what is ethical at work- The difference between personal and systems morality- Why some people see work as a calling- The risks of feeling called to work- How minority identity shapes belonging- Why discrimination depends on workplace context- How churches shape ideas about work- How religion and science overlap- And other topics…Elaine Howard Ecklund is the Herbert S. Autrey Chair in Social Sciences and professor of sociology at Rice University. She is also the founding director of the Boniuk Institute for the Study and Advancement of Religious Tolerance. Her research explores how people's deepest beliefs shape work, science, leadership, and civic life. She is the author of several books, including Religion in a Changing Workplace, Working for Better: A New Approach to Faith at Work, and Why Science and Faith Need Each Other: Eight Shared Values That Move Us Beyond Fear.Resources Mentioned:Elaine's Books;Working for Better: A New Approach to Faith at Work: https://www.amazon.com/Working-Better-Approach-Faith-Work/dp/1514011263 Religion in a Changing Workplace: https://www.amazon.com/Religion-Workplace-Scheitle/dp/0197675018 Why Science and Faith Need Each Other: Eight Shared Values That Move Us Beyond Fear: https://www.amazon.com/Science-Faith-Need-Each-Other/dp/1587434369 Connect with Elaine:Official website: https://www.elainehowardecklund.com/Rice University profile: https://profiles.rice.edu/faculty/elaine-howard-ecklundLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/elaine-howard-ecklund/ Work with Dart:Dart is the CEO and co-founder of the work design firm 11fold.

Hard work alone is not a strategy. I can put in a lot of effort, feel tired, and still end up in the same place, like running on a treadmill. Effort feels productive, but that doesn't mean I'm actually moving forward. What matters is direction, leverage, and having a clear goal. I only become effective when I measure my work against a specific outcome, not just how hard I worked. In this episode, I explain why hard work without structure just leads to fatigue, not real results. Show Notes: [05:21]#1 Effort without positioning repeats. [08:31]#2 Hard work without control benefits whomever owns the structure. [14:28]#3 Advancement requires leverage, not volume. [18:44] Recap Next Steps: --- Execution is not a talent. It is a measurable standard. If your results don't match your ability, you are not lacking information—you are lacking execution reliability. The Execution Reliability Index (ERI) identifies exactly where your discipline breaks, where your standards drop, and where your results are leaking. This is not theory. This is a system.

In this episode, Dr. Hemal Patel explores how cellular energetics and membrane biology play a central role in health, resilience, and disease. He explains that the cell membrane is not just a barrier, but a dynamic and intelligent system that organizes signaling, regulates energy, and may even influence aging.Dr. Patel shares insights into:How mitochondria and membranes work together to control energy productionThe role of circadian rhythms and cellular “oscillations” in maintaining healthWhy aging and chronic disease may begin with membrane breakdownHow communication across the body may be driven through the blood as a signaling systemA major focus of the conversation is MeScreen, a novel test designed to assess mitochondrial function using a simple blood sample. By exposing lab-grown cells to a person's plasma, MeScreen evaluates how their internal biochemical environment influences energy production, oxidative stress, and mitochondrial resilience.The episode highlights a key shift in thinking:Health isn't just about individual organs or genes, but about how systems communicate, adapt, and maintain energy balance over time.Neuroveda Health patients receive $250 off when ordering through the clinic.

Feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or mentally exhausted? Psalm 143:7–8 reminds us that we can be honest with God about our mental health, trusting Him to meet us in our struggles and guide us toward peace and healing. David’s prayer is raw and unfiltered—he doesn’t hide his pain, and neither should we. God isn’t asking for polished prayers; He invites us to come as we are, even when our thoughts feel heavy and our spirits feel weak. Being honest with God is not a sign of weak faith—it’s actually evidence of trust. When we stop trying to hide or “fix” ourselves before approaching Him, we open the door for real connection and healing. God already knows what we’re carrying, and He cares deeply about every part of us—including our mental and emotional well-being. As we bring our struggles to Him, He often provides support through His Word, His presence, and even through people and resources He places in our lives. Highlights God welcomes honesty about mental health struggles You don’t need to “clean up” your emotions before praying Vulnerability with God strengthens your relationship with Him Struggling mentally is not a sign of weak faith God’s love interrupts cycles of fear and negative thinking Healing may include guidance through people and practical support God is present with you, even in your lowest moments Do you want to listen ad-free?

Do not hide your face from me or I will be like those who go down to the pit. Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I entrust my life.” - Psalm 143:7-8, NIV At George Mason University’s Center for the Advancement of Well-Being, I work on university-wide well-being initiatives – including programs designed to break down the stigma of struggling with mental health. We believe that talking openly about mental health struggles can help all people strengthen their well-being. In Psalm 143:7-8, King David is completely honest about how much he’s struggling with his mental health. He prays about it without holding back, and he tells God that he trusts him to help. If you’re also struggling with your mental health, you might feel like you have to try to fix your mood before you can talk to God. You might think you need to present a polished prayer to God that makes it seem like you’re not really suffering much. But the Psalms can help you develop a deeper relationship with God by showing you how to communicate honestly with him. Many of the Psalms describe the reality of people suffering in this fallen world. In Psalm 143:7-8, David shows that it’s okay to not be okay. David starts his prayer with a desperate plea: “Answer me quickly, Lord; my spirit fails.” If you feel like your spirit is failing today, you’re in good company. Many people feel that way sometimes when going through challenging circumstances. Admitting that your mental health is struggling isn’t a sign of weak faith; it’s actually a sign of healthy faith, because it shows that you trust God enough to be honest with him and reach out for help. God already knows what you’re going through, and he’s strong enough to help you with whatever it is – burnout, anxiety, depression, or any other mental health concern. When you’re honest with God about the “pit” you feel you’re falling into, you can stop wasting energy trying to hide. Whether you’re overwhelmed by your responsibilities, worried about a problem you don’t know how to solve, or feeling lonely because of a broken relationship, God wants to help you. You can come to God just as you are. God wants the real you, not the “Instagram-worthy” version of you. Remember that God is the one who designed your mind and your emotions. Your loving Creator can help you with whatever you’re going through. As he struggles, David reaches for a lifeline by praying: “Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love.” When you’re struggling mentally, your thoughts can run on a loop of worries and self-criticism. You need a different word – a word of God’s unfailing love. When you seek God’s love, you’re placing your mental health in the hands of the Great Physician. Just pray honestly, from your heart, about your mental health struggles. Then listen for God’s guidance to make the best decisions about caring for your mental health. God may lead you to a counselor, a doctor, a support group, or supportive friends. Just as David prayed for God to “show me the way I should go”, God will show you the way you should go to get the help you need. So, if you’re struggling with a mental health challenge, remember that you can trust God to love you no matter what and to help you with whatever you need. God is not hiding his face from you; he’s right there with you, waiting for you to reach out and take his hand. Intersecting Faith & Life: As you consider why it’s important to be honest with God about your mental health, reflect on these questions: When you feel your spirit failing, is your first instinct to hide from God or to pray to God, as David did? What are some of the words of unfailing love (God’s promises in the Bible) that you can hold onto when your mental health feels shaky? How can being honest with God about your mental health struggles strengthen your relationship with him? Who are the people in your life that God might be using to show you the way to the mental health care you need? What’s one way you can entrust your soul to God today and let him lead you toward better mental health?
