It's week 1 of Final Fantasy's legality in our formats — and these cards are popping up in way more places than we thought. This week we talk about the surprising places Sephiroth is soldiering, how Cloud (or Raubahn) is reviving Hammertime, and just how much we all wanted a 1cmc 2/3 reverse Jackal Pup with deathtouch... with a back side. Stan shares his conspiracies. Dave changes his mind while enjoying a shake, and Devon shows up 20 minutes late (which we all understand). • Cloud • Sephiroth • & Others with Excellent Hair Become a citizen of The Dive Down Nation!: http://www.patreon.com/thedivedown Show the world that you're a proud citizen of The Dive Down Nation with some merch from the store: https://www.thedivedown.com/store Upgrade your gameplay and your gameday with Heavy Play accessories.

Mike's love-affair for all things Apple began in his Junior High's Library playing Lemonade Stand on a pair of brand new Apple ][+ computers. His penchant for Apple gear continued to be nurtured by the public school system when, in High School, he was hired as a lab supervisor to help run the Apple ][e lab for his fellow students and their Print Shop needs. Then, further still, in college he often opted to help a friend with her Computer Graphics coursework instead of focusing on his own studies, but only because it helped get him closer to the Mac-lab.

An affinity group is a small group of people who come together to prepare for and take direct action. They make decisions together, and support each other during and after action. Sometimes these groups are formed just for one action, but often they are ongoing groups that organise and take part in actions over a number of years.Affinity groups are often organised along the principles of non-hierarchy and autonomy. This means that decisions are made directly within the group by all its members, and responsibility and power is shared so that everyone has an equal voice.Affinity group guide: https://www.seedsforchange.org.uk/affinitygroupsWhat can I do?

In this episode of The Rainmaking Podcast, host Scott Love speaks with Dave Sanderson—speaker, author, and survivor of the “Miracle on the Hudson”—about how professionals can create powerful business relationships through what he calls the “real AI”: authentic interactions. Drawing from his experience in sales and crisis leadership, Dave introduces his five-step “Access to Influence” model: Access, Connection, Relationship, Influence, and Affinity. He shares how building meaningful, trust-based relationships—especially through in-person interactions—leads to long-term business success and client loyalty. Dave emphasizes that while artificial intelligence is gaining traction, authentic human connection remains the most effective tool for rainmakers. He explains how to navigate gatekeepers, identify internal champions, and develop influence that drives results—even in high-stakes sales environments. This episode offers a powerful framework for professionals who want to deepen their impact and grow through purposeful, relationship-driven strategies.

As President of his firm, Dave Sanderson Speaks International LLC, he has built a career as a motivational speaker, mentor, and author. Recently named by Inc.com as one of the top 100 Leadership Speakers, Dave speaks to audiences around the globe about the harrowing experience that shaped his future. At a time when people are longing for connection and community, they are also seeking a way to create an extraordinary life truly. So many don't have a mentor or their own personal “board of directors, so today, Dave works with people of all ages to help them decide what their personal “life” brand will look like going forward. From his own life-changing experience, Dave is now convinced that everyone has their own defining moment but that most don't know how to take that first step to find the opportunities that exist out of their own uncertainty.

In this 3-part series I am going to be sharing the major systemic barriers to women progressing in their careers: today we are talking about The Bias Barrier.Bias can be unconscious (and conscious) and is a key factor underpinning the slowness of progress in seeing more women rise to positions of leadership and power.In this episode, I'm talking about three key factors:1. Affinity bias - the reason why many male leaders hire more men with similar experiences and backgrounds as them2. Loyalty bias - the assumption that women will remain loyal to their organisations, even if they are continuously overlooked for promotion3. Common assumptions made about women's needs and career aspirations, that are often wrongSomething I said today:"Bias occurs throughout the entire lifecycle of a women's career: from recruitment, professional development opportunities to promotion, mentoring advice and compensation discussions - at every career transaction, qualified women can be side-lined."

I absolutely LOVE coaching and seeing my fabulous clients exceed their own expectations. Over the last decade+ I have helped women realise their potential at companies including Woolworths, ANZ, J.P. Morgan, PwC, Coca-Cola Amatil, Ministry of Defence, Frontier Sensing and Abbvie Medical Research through my Roadmap to Senior Leadership 1:1 coaching program. I live for those phone calls from clients, jumping up and down, telling me they've got that promotion, negotiated a seismic pay rise or have moved into a role completely aligned with their mission, values and strengths. 

This is a short status report and catch up session. A courtroom story questioning an officer's conduct. It's all about domestic infiltration of groups around Trump. The pressure is intense. A good critical choice is needed in the NSC to oversee the international office. There's a very large elephant in the room. American manufacturing capacity is dead, and it will be a struggle to revive it. Tariffs are adding pressure to quickly expand. Volume 4 will be all about China. Small business always suffers first. Recent civil unrest is a dry run for much bigger events. Target groups have been infiltrated. The historic first 100 days of DOGE. Listener process required: Document all your legal actions taken since 2020. The total list may go to SCOTUS. If the courts are not for the people, they will fail. Now more than ever, we must listen very closely to our President.

In this episode, Dr. Anna and Dr. Beth engage the inspiring educators behind Lyons Township High School's BIPOC Educators Supporting Teaching (BEST) Affinity Group. In episode 127, we talked with the administrative team that created conditions for collaboration in their school community. Now we will hear how those intentions are brought to life. Dr. Jennifer Rowe, Mimi Yong, Teriauna Bland, and Michael Archbold share their personal experiences building a supportive community for educators of color. Listen as they discuss the importance of authentic spaces, professional development opportunities, and the powerful metaphor of "taking off armor" in affinity spaces. This episode offers valuable insights into creating sustainable support systems that benefit both educators and students alike. #TeacherSupport #DiversityInEducation #AffinityGroups #EducatorRetention #BIPOC #EquityInEducation #ProfessionalDevelopment #TeacherCommunity #AuthenticLeadership #NewTeacherTalk

This lecture runs through the 'Rules of Affinity.' Briefly, they are: C1 formulations are based upon direct statements of Scripture (e.g., salvation is by grace through faith). C2 formulations equate to indirect statements which lead inevitably to a firm conclusion (e.g., Father, Son, & Spirit are God yet God is one). C3's = inferences to the best explanation, which can differ depending on how much relevant detail is included. ALL THEOLOGY SHOULD BE DONE WITH C1's to C3's. [1 hour 40 minutes]

I'm reading Ted Gioia's "Immersive Humanities Course," 52 weeks of World Classics. We start with Plato! The Last Days of Socrates and excerpts from The Republic. I'm a beginner at reading the classics, but I've decided to just "crack the book" and get started. Here are a few of my key take-aways from Plato:Human nature just doesn't change. Socrates talks about how to influence a crowd (by misrepresenting ideas), and he gives a pretty funny explanation of misanthropy that I didn't expect. (You hate people because you expect them to be perfect and they aren't. Grow up, get real, and understand that the vast majority are neither purely good or purely evil, but somewhere in the middle.)The distinction between an Idea (maybe think of it as a quality, like Beauty) and the thing that has the beauty (like a beautiful vase, for example) is important. The object can point to the Truth of the quality but never perfectly. It is critical to be very clear on what is the Idea and what is the object exemplifying that Idea. That sounds very obvious when I write it but in the real world it is easy to skip over.These books covered things I had heard of, like the Theory of Ideas, the Argument from Affinity, and the Theory of Recollection. I won't go into them here, but I have kept notes to trace them for myself. There was a surprising amount of reflection on the nature of the soul. Now, of course, I'm wondering exactly when did the Greeks divide man into body and soul, and what exactly did “soul” mean for them? I know they didn't necessarily think of it like I think of my soul as a Christian.Book I of The Republic is all about “doing right,” a phrase for a Greek word that is also translated “justice” but incorporates a much bigger and more moral sense than mere legal justice. There is a lot to think about for people who are considering leadership, especially political leadership. Finally, the Cave Allegory. I thought it was basically about not seeing things clearly, but learning to see them as they really are. In fact it is much, much more than that. In particular, Socrates talks about learning to see in the bright light, and then trying to come back to those inside the cave, trying to explain the truth. And there's a line that I'll misquote, but the point is, “Are you blind because you have always been in the dark, or are you blind because you were dazzled by brightness?” What a question.This is a year-long challenge! Join me next week for Greek Poetry and The Odyssey.CONNECTTo read more of my writing, visit my Substack - https://www.cheryldrury.substack.com.Follow me on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/cldrury/ LISTENSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/5GpySInw1e8IqNQvXow7Lv?si=9ebd5508daa245bdApple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/crack-the-book/id1749793321 Captivate - https://crackthebook.captivate.fm

On today's program, The Fellowship's C.J. Burroughs shares a “Heroes of the Holocaust” story about a Russian princess arrested for helping Jewish prisoners in Nazi camps.

It's Thursday, March 6th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Nicaragua violated religious freedom 222 times last year Christian Solidarity Worldwide released a report Monday on the continued deterioration of religious freedom in Nicaragua.  The report documented 222 cases of religious freedom violations in the Central American country last year. Authorities have prohibited churches from holding public religious processions. Pastors must report to designated police officers and submit their weekly plans. Christian Solidarity Worldwide noted, “Preaching about unity or justice or praying for imprisoned religious leaders or even the general situation in the country, for example, can be considered as criticism of the government and treated as a crime.” Nicaragua is ranked 30th on the Open Doors' World Watch List of nations where it is most difficult to be a Christian.  South Korea's birthrate up South Korea's birthrate rose last year for the first time in nearly a decade. The country witnessed 238,300 births in 2024, up 3.6% from 2023. South Korea's fertility rate was 0.75 children per woman last year, up from 0.72 in 2023. It was 1.24 in 2015. South Korea is known for having one of the worst fertility rates in the world. The government has introduced pro-marriage policies in response.  UK Christian groups organize  Nat'l Day of Prayer Against Assisted Suicide Religious organizations in the United Kingdom are organizing a National Day of Prayer Against Assisted Suicide on March 25. The Christian Institute is leading the initiative in partnership with Affinity, CARE, the Christian Medical Fellowship, and the Evangelical Alliance.  The U.K. parliament is currently considering a bill to legalize the killing of terminally ill adults who want to end their lives.  Ciarán Kelly, the Director of The Christian Institute, said, “Now is a key moment to pray for the failure of efforts to legalize assisted suicide for ill and vulnerable people.” 40 Days for Life kicks off in 660 cities worldwide Pro-lifers around the world joined in the 40 Days for Life prayer campaign starting yesterday. People are praying for an end to the murder of unborn babies in 660 cities. The abortion mill in one of those cities is already expected to shut down. The Bloomington Police Department informed 40 Days for Life that the Planned Parenthood locations in Bloomington and Decatur, Illinois are closing for good. Colossians 4:2 says, “Continue earnestly in prayer, being vigilant in it with thanksgiving.” Trump opposes transgenderism in speech On Tuesday night, President Donald Trump delivered an address to both chambers of Congress. His speech lasted over an hour and 40 minutes, a record for presidential addresses to Congress. Trump celebrated his first 43 days back in office. He criticized transgenderism and illegal immigration while promoting government cuts and tariffs.  Trump called on Congress to ban so-called sex-change surgeries on children. TRUMP: “Shortly after taking office, I signed an executive order banning public schools from indoctrinating our children with transgender ideology. (applause) I also signed an order to cut off all taxpayer funding to any institution that engages in the sexual mutilation of our youth. (applause) “And now I want Congress to pass a bill permanently banning and criminalizing sex changes on children and forever ending the lie that any child is trapped in the wrong body. (applause) This is a big lie. And our message to every child in America is that you are perfect, exactly the way God made you.” (applause) According to a CBS News survey, a massive 76% of those watching said they approved of Trump's first second-term speech to Congress, reports One America News. Supreme Court votes against Trump's freeze of $2B to USAID The U.S. Supreme Court sided with a lower court against the Trump administration yesterday in a case involving USAID payments. The lower court ordered the administration to unfreeze $2 billion in foreign payments. The Supreme Court ruled 5-4. Justice Samuel Alito led the dissent, writing, “Does a single district-court judge who likely lacks jurisdiction have the unchecked power to compel the Government of the United States to pay out (and probably lose forever) 2 billion taxpayer dollars? The answer to that question should be an emphatic ‘No,' but a majority of this Court apparently thinks otherwise. I am stunned.” Australian man with the golden arm dies at 88 And finally, a beloved Australian blood donor died recently at the age of 88. James Harrison was known as the “Man with the Golden Arm.” His blood contained the rare antibody called anti-D. The antibody is used in a medication for pregnant women whose blood might attack the unborn baby. Harrison donated blood and plasma 1,173 times between 1954 and 2018. He's credited with saving the lives of 2.4 million babies! Stephen Cornelissen with the Australian Red Cross Blood Service said, “James was a remarkable, stoically kind and generous person who was committed to a lifetime of giving and he captured the hearts of many people around the world.” In Acts 20:35, the Apostle Paul said, “And remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.' ” Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, March 6th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Subscribe by Amazon Music or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

Barry continues to think through how to get back to civil discourse, using Robert Frost's poem, The Gift Outright, to remind us of what we have in common. Simplifying our differences to one or the other side of a political divide does very little for either side and does no justice to our beautiful, complicated […]

As we continue to play with Modern's latest round of unbans, something has become apparent. Mox Opal is a heck of a card.

Trust starts around today's truth table feast, and also within our hearts. No apologies are required for today's show. Let's begin with a revisit back to the year 2020 and the Greek job. Concentrate on the CCP money being moved. Georgia is driven towards the MINSK agreement. Ultra Tech is where the real future is. No matter the make of the election machine, the software was the same. The worst attacks came from the right wing. Let's review ShadowGate once more. Millie Weaver was an information conduit, and the setup meant to silence her. Enter Patrick Bergy. Here's some big names. The jury selection uses of AI are frightening. The right uses Israeli IP's for major operations. Ali Alexander and the planned color revolution that failed. Follow the money, but the data too. The internet existed in the 40's? The right wing narrative operations are the worst. DNA harvesting parties were a thing when there was no journalists to describe them. Doing wrong to others always ends up bad. It's time to buckle up, because there is more chaos on the way.
