You know that feeling you get when you have a real, meaningful interaction with someone? It might be with a friend or a complete stranger, maybe a few minutes or even a few seconds, but you walk away with your heart a little lighter than it was before. This type of connection, according to Andi Davison, LVT, CAPP, APPC, positive change agent at Flourish Veterinary Consulting, isn't just nice—it's essential.   Andi breaks down the evidence behind positive psychology's PERMA model, which includes relationships as one of pillars that contribute to helping us flourish. In her role working alongside Josh Vaisman, MAPPCP (PgD), at Flourish Veterinary Consulting, Andi helps practices, groups, and individuals learn to create better connections. Join us as Andi explains how her lifelong involvement with horses has helped her understand the ingredients of true connection: vulnerability, authenticity, trust, kindness, and belonging/mattering.  Mentioned in this episode:   Reach Andi at andi@flourish.vet Flourish Veterinary Consulting Martin Seligman and the UPenn Positive Psychology Center Lead to Thrive: The Science of Crafting a Positive Veterinary Culture by Josh Vaisman, MAPPCP (PgD) (AAHA, 2023) Central Line is generously supported by CareCredit.   Wish you could watch these conversations?

Pret Latviju vērstās dezinformācijas apjomi janvārī bija samērā augsti – propagandas lērumu gada pirmajā mēnesī palīdzēja nodrošināt tostarp Kremļa rupora raidsabiedrības RT iesaistīšanās, kas orientēta starptautiskai auditorijai un parasti uz Latviju īpaši nekoncentrējas. Par dezinformācijas analīzes rezultātiem “Atmaskots.lv” podkāstā žurnālistam Ansim Īvānam stāsta Austrumeiropas politikas pētījumu centra (APPC) asociētā pētniece Kristīne Skujiņa-Trokša.

Mākslīgais intelekts kļūst arvien nozīmīgāks palīgs, taču tehnoloģijas aizvien nespēj pilnībā aizstāt cilvēku, ja runa ir par informācijas izvērtēšanu un analīzi. Ko mākslīgas intelekts nozīmē dezinformācijā un tās apkarošanā, šajā “Atmaskots.lv” epizodē pārrunā žurnālists Ansis Īvāns un Austrumeiropas politikas pētījumu centra (APPC) pētnieks Mārcis Balodis.

Decembrī bija vērojams pret Latviju vērstu dezinformatīvu vēstījumu īpatsvara pieaugums kopējā pētnieku analizētajā materiālā, kas galvenokārt skaidrojams ar Valsts drošības dienesta (VDD) vēršanos pret prokremliskajiem medijiem “Baltnews” un “Sputnik”. Par pagājušā mēneša tendencēm dezinformācijas laukā ar Austrumeiropas politikas pētījumu centra (APPC) asociēto pētnieci Kristīni Skujiņu-Trokšu sarunājas “Delfi” žurnālists Ansis Īvāns.   https://www.delfi.lv/atmaskots/raganu-medibas-baltiesu-gaume-vai-latvija-tiesam-vaja-krievu-zurnalistus.d?id=52765205

last march G & Richard watched "classic" 80's TV show Manimal an Animal Detective a decade before the transphobic pet detective who has the added bonus of morphing into the animals themselves. Anyway, somewhere between mocking and tribute the MINUTE podcasts out there they decided to watch one minute at a time. sometimes these episodes are 5 minutes sometimes they are closer to 20. this is a collection of the first 22 minutes over 6 hours.  Could we have edited?  Of course but then it wouldn't have been what we do here at APPC. G also meant to update the awful music. But hasn't. So there's that. new Manimal minutes will be released soon. (maybe March again? it really depends. but this will get you up t date) -Housekeeping- RATE! REVIEW!

“Sliktas ziņas” jeb “Bad News” ir tīmekļa spēle, kas ļauj iejusties dezinformatora ādā un tādā veidā labi izprast, kā notiek apzināta nepatiesas informācijas izplatīšana interneta vidē. Par spēli un tās pielāgošanu Latvijas publikai portāla “Delfi” žurnālistam Ansim Īvānam “Atmaskots.lv” podkāsta epizodē stāsta Austrumeiropas politikas pētījumu centra (APPC) asociētā pētniece Kristīne Skujiņa-Trokša.

"We actually sold over $400,000 in commercial repaints just in the last six or eight months by using the APPC Digital Team. And it's really done a lot. Like, we usually get about three to five more leads a week now. We wanted a service that didn't cost an arm and a leg and still get good results. And Brandon Lewis has already helped us so much in scaling our company already that we ... why wouldn't we do it? We didn't think we could go wrong using the APPC digital team. I would say if you're not interested in scaling your business to the next level, then this is not for you.

Tautu pašnoteikšanās tiesības Starptautiskajā politikā tautu pašnoteikšanās tiesību princips aktualizējās Pirmā pasaule kara noslēgumā. Amerikas Savienoto Valstu prezidents Vudro Vilsons, 1918. gada 8. janvārī uzrunādams ASV kongresmeņus, nāca klajā ar saviem „14 punktiem” – scenāriju pēc iespējas līdzsvarotai un taisnīgai kara izbeigšanai. Viens no principiem, kas iedīglī ietverts Vilsona „Punktos”, bet turpmākajā miera procesā un Tautu Savienības veidošanā guva arvien plašāku attīstību, ir nāciju pašnoteikšanās tiesību respektēšana. Tā iedzīvināšana nesaraujami saistīta ar trīs lielo Eiropas austrumdaļas impēriju – Krievijas, Austroungārijas un Osmaņu impērijas – sabrukumu un jaunu nacionālu valstu veidošanās procesu šais teritorijās. Eiropā laiks pēc Pirmā pasaules kara bija nāciju pašnoteikšanās tiesību „zelta laikmets”, kad iedzīvotāju etniskā piederība bija noteicošais pamats valstu tapšanai un robežu novilkšanai. Savukārt pēc Otrā pasaules kara šis process turpinājās ar Eiropas valstu kādreizējo koloniālo valdījumu suverenizāciju. Tajā pat laikā notika arī pretēja rakstura procesi, kas pamatā saistījās ar 20. gs. totalitāro režīmu – boļševistiskās Padomju Savienības, nacistiskās Vācijas, fašistiskās Itālijas – impēriju atjaunošanas projektiem, brutāli ignorējot nāciju pašnoteikšanās tiesības vai ar tām manipulējot. Starptautiskās politikas prakse pagājušajos simt gados ir pierādījusi, ka nāciju pašnoteikšanās tiesību princips ir fundamentāli svarīgs, ciktāl nacionālā piederība lielāko tiesu ir neatņemama indivīda identitātes daļa. Tomēr šai gadsimtā arī atklājies, cik sarežģīta mēdz būt šī procesa īstenošana starptautiskās politikas praksē. Sarunā piedalās: APPC izpilddirektors Andis Kudors, LĀI pētniece Elizabete Vizgunova un publicists Otto Ozols. ASV muitas tarifi Marta sākumā Baltais nams paziņoja par plāniem piemērot ievedmuitu tēraudam un alumīnijam. Toreiz prezidents Tramps uzsvēra, ka daudzus gadus no ārvalstīm tiek ievestas un pārdotas preces par dempinga cenu. Tas graujot vietējo uzņēmumu konkurētspēju un samazina darba vietu skaitu. Līdz šim panāktas principālas vienošanās ar Argentīnu, Austrāliju un Brazīliju, bet ar Dienvidkoreju tāda jau provizoriski noslēgta. Proti, Dienvidkoreja tiks atbrīvota no tarifiem uz nenoteiktu laiku apmaiņām pret tērauda eksporta samazināšanu uz ASV par aptuveni 30%. Savukārt, vēl mēnesi Eiropas Savienībai, Meksikai un Kanādai nepiemēros paaugstinātos tarifus...Eiropas Komisija norādījusi, ka šāds solis (un vispār šie tarifi) nav atbalstāmi, jo palielina neskaidrību tirgū. Situāciju komentē SEB bankas ekonomists Dainis Gašpuitis. Finansējums Krievijas bruņotajiem spēkiem Pirmo reizi kopš ekonomiskās krīzes 1998.gadā, Krievija ir samazinājusi finansējumu bruņotajiem spēkiem. Kopš Putina nākšanas pie varas, militārie izdevumi Krievijā pakāpeniski pieauga un pagājušajā gadā tie bija 4.3% no IKP,  bet Kremļa plāns paredz tos piecu gadu laikā samazināt līdz 3% atzīmei. Optimistiskākajā scenārijā to varētu sasniegt iesaldējot militārajai jomai paredzēto summu un samazinājumu panākt ar ekonomisko izaugsmi. Taču izaugsmi Krievijai tuvākajos gados sola gausu un IKP diez vai pieaugs vairāk nekā par 2% gadā. Daudz reālāka ir iespēja, ka to panāks ar drastisku budžeta samazinājumu.To vērtē Krievijas Latviešu Kongresa (KLK) priekšsēde Lauma Vlasova.

Everyone is talking about it and investing in it, from startups to enterprises and everything in between. But is it secure? What are the costs and benefits of using it?

I'll cover the risks and rewards of using Docker and similar technologies such as AppC as well as discuss the larger implications of using orchestration systems like Mesos or Kubernetes.

Summary of today's show: Scot Landry, Susan Abbott, and Gregory Tracy discussed the news headlines of the week, including the final proposal of the Archdiocesan Pastoral Planning Commission to Cardinal Seán; CatholicTV's new show “Aging Gracefully”; The lack of realization among Catholics that assisted suicide is on the ballot in November; How Marian devotion got downplayed at Vatican II; and the dedication of a Liberty Flagpole at one parish. Listen to the show: Today's host(s): Scot Landry and Susan Abbott Today's guest(s): Gregory Tracy, managing editor of the Pilot, the newspaper of the Archdiocese of Boston Links from today's show: Some of the stories discussed on this show will be available on The Pilot's and The Anchor's websites on Friday morning. Please check those sites for the latest links. Today's topics: Pastoral Planning proposal; Aging Gracefully; Assisted suicide; Mary at Vatican II; Liberty Flagpole 1st segment: Scot Landry and Susan Abbott talked about busy everyone at the Pastoral Center is with the end of summer. Susan noted that the start of religious education programs on Catechetical Sunday this Sunday is keeping her office busy. Susan said today at Mass she heard St. John Chrysostom's phrase “invincible patience” and that's been on her mind all day. Scot asked Gregory Tracy about the front page story in the Pilot which is about the final proposal to Cardinal Sean from the Archdiocesan Pastoral Planning Commission. Scot said it was delivered to Cardinal Sean a couple of weeks ago. Scot said the Cardinal is now reviewing it and consulting with other bodies before making a final decision. So far, he's met with the Presbyteral Council, which unanimously recommended he accept the proposal. Last week, Scot said the Cardinal's cabinet also unanimously recommended it as well. The final decision is expected in mid to late December. Susan said she was pleased to see in the article in the Pilot that all along that this was emphasized as a proposal. Many people thought this was a rubber stamp process and a done deal. Scot said part of that is because this is the third or fourth attempt by a group to come up with a recommendation. But for this process the participation of everyone was taken. Susan said some of the original elements of this proposal were modified after feedback from the consultations throughout the archdiocese. Scot noted that the consultation over the last 10 months included 40 archdiocesan meetings with 5,000 people as well as 200 independent parish meetings representing 20,000 people. They received more than 8,000 single-spaced pages of feedback. They consulted 16 times with the Presbyteral council and the Commission itself met 31 times. Fr. Paul Soper, the interim pastoral planning director, said this is an historic consultation. Greg concurred that he'd never seen or heard of such an extensive consultation with as much give and take and feedback. He added that it is clear that changes were made based on the feedback, including the biggest item concerning how pastors for the proposed collaboratives would be chosen as well as phasing in the changes versus making a massive change in a short time. He noted that there will be an initial voluntary first phase. Scot said the proposal is available for anyone to read on the link above. He said it's a thorough document and anyone who cares about the Church should read it. He noted that it is also written very clearly. Susan said that damage is done when people argue based on what they've heard, rather than reading the primary sources first. She encouraged everyone to read it with an open mind. Greg agreed and said he's heard people talking and sharing information that was incorrect and he attempted to correct them. He said that's one of the reasons why they wrote a story that was so long. Scot said tomorrow's show will be dedicated to looking at the proposal in depth. He provided a summary. The first part of the document is focused on strengthening parishes and the second is on strengthening parishes for the work of the New Evangelization. He listed some of the highlights, including the 288 parishes of the Archdiocese will be grouped in approximately 135 Parish Collaboratives, usually consisting of two or three parishes. They will be phased in over a period of five years. The collaboratives will be assigned one single Pastor. Scot noted that most pastors have said this is where the archdiocese needs to go, but they need training on how to accomplish the goals of the pastoral plan. Each collaborative will be asked to come up with a local pastoral plan within 12 months of implementation of the collaborative. The recommendation also includes pastoral training for priests and lay pastoral staff by the Office of the Episcopal Vicar for the New Evangelization, the Catholic Leadership Institute, and the Office of Pastoral Planning. There are also separate recommendations from the Religious Education Task Force and the Committee to Study Lay Formation Programs which the APPC recommends be implemented in their entirety. Greg said this is a monumental undertaking. The focus of the discussions he's heard so far has focused on administration and organization, but the training is really worth noting. He was taken aback by the massive undertaking of all the training that they plan. If it all comes to fruition, we will have one of the best formed dioceses in the US. He thinks a lot of the controversies we see, it comes from confusion about what the Catholic faith is, and this training plan helps deal with that lack of understanding. Scot said Cardinal Sean is serious that this plan is about the New Evangelization and giving significant training so we can be effective at evangelization. Susan said certification of catechists comes through the Archdiocese and her office, and this planning process has given them the impetus to get everything properly set up and improve how they standardize and certify everyone. 2nd segment: Scot said “Aging Gracefully” is a new series on CatholicTV, and the host is Fr. Michael Sheehan, SJ,the provincial of the local Jesuit province who also happens to be a medical doctor. Greg said while the show never says they're motivated by the assisted suicide debate, they do say that this is a moment to talk about the elderly and how they can live their life well. Greg said it deals with the many aspects of living a full life. There are five episodes that talk about spirituality, how to talk to your physician, thinking about and preparing for death, and more. Scot said it's all very practical. The elderly need to be able to advocate for themselves with their doctors. Susan said Fr. Sheehan is amazing and heard him speak at a presentation at the Pastoral Center and saw him on Fr. Chris Hickey's TV show “Going My Way.” Also in the Pilot this week is a story about St. Augustine Parish in Andover dedicated a Liberty Flagpole in honor of September 11. They dedicated the pole a day earlier so that those they invited would also be able to attend 9/11 celebrations. It was prompted by a parishioner asking why there wasn't a flagpole in the sanctuary. Greg said there are no regulations concerning the practice, but it began during World War II. Later on the US Bishops recommended that symbols apart from the worship of Christ should be outside the sanctuary. Fr. Peter Gori, the pastor, explained all this in his bulletin, and then said tongue-in-cheek that if anyone wanted to dedicate a flagpole to the church, he would welcome it. One parishioner immediately donated the flagpole and another couple donated the flags. Fr. Gori said it honors every citizen who has strived to be both a good American and a good Catholic. The flagpole was dedicated to the men and women of St. Augustine Parish who served in the U.S. Armed Forces throughout the years. “My greatest passion has always been to serve God and my country,” [Claude] Gallant [the donor of the flags] said. In The Anchor this week was a story about the efforts to oppose Question 2 on the ballot in November about the legalization of assisted suicide. There was discussion that an issue like this should be debated in public in the Legislature so that the voters can be informed and heard before a vote. A ballot question avoids all that and many of the people the Anchor talked to were shocked to learn that this is on the ballot. Scot said if people like the listeners of TGCL or who go to church on a regular basis or read The Pilot and The Anchor don't take up the baton and engage others on Question Two, then we face an uphill battle to oppose it. Greg said those of us who work in the Church and especially in the media, we can think we're overdoing coverage of this issue, but he knows that you have to keep hammering it home because you never know which article someone will pick up and get informed. Scot said it's important to know that arguments put forward by the broad-based coalition opposing the ballot initiative are not faith-based arguments, of which there are plenty. There are also arguments that are very practical and can be apprehended by anyone, whatever their faith background. Susan noted that there will be a series of workshops taking place throughout the Archdiocese that start next week. The list of workshops is . Scot said yesterday's show was a great discussion with Dr. Ken Stevens, an oncologist from Oregon where assisted suicide has been the law for more than a decade. He said DR. Stevens brought up a great point that a state can't on the one hand say assisted suicide is okay, while also saying that other kinds of suicide is bad. Scot said tonight, Cardinal Seán will be on EWTN's The World Over with Raymond Arroyo at 8pm. It can be heard on WQOM or on TV. Also, on October 3 at 8pm, Cardinal Sean will be hosting a live virtual town hall on CatholicTV, simulcast on WQOM, at 8pm. Starting that evening, Cardinal Seán is asking all Catholic families to pray a daily rosary to defeat this ballot question. The Cardinal has recorded special episodes of the Rosary to air on CatholicTV for this purpose. This will air five or six times per day until November 6. 3rd segment: This week's benefactor card raffle winner is Joseph Montuori from Newton Upper Falls, MA He wins A CD from the Envoy Institute: “An Antidote to Atheism” by Msgr.

James Phalan of the Mariological Society told the academic conference that a misreading of Vatican II led to a collapse in Marian devotion. He said people interpreted some of the debates on where to include devotion to Mary in the documents as being a downgrading of devotion. He also said that was connected to a collapse in devotion to the Holy Spirit. He described it as overly rational. At the same time, Pope Benedict XVI during an audience remembered that debate over where to include a document on Mary. There wassome talk about having a separate document, but they ultimately decided to include it as part of Lumen Gentium. The Pope recalled the vote of Oct. 23, 1963, in which it was decided to include a chapter on Mary in Lumen Gentium. In this chapter, he said, “the figure of Mary – reinterpreted and reproposed in the context of the Word of God, the texts of the patristic and liturgical traditions, as well as a broad theological and spiritual reflection – appears in all of its beauty and singularity, well inserted in the fundamental mysteries of the Christian faith.” The Holy Father said there were good reasons to make this part of the Constitution on the Church (Lumen Gentium). He then reflected on how popular piety is nourished by biblical and patristic references. “The singular figure of the Mother of God must be developed and studied from diverse and complimentary perspectives: while the ‘via veritas' (way of truth) is always valid, we must not forsake the ‘via pulchritudinis' (way of beauty) and the ‘via amoris' (way of love) to discover and contemplate still more profoundly Mary's crystalline and solid faith, her love for God, her indestructible hope.”
