Lesley Groff was Jeffrey Epstein's longest-serving and most senior assistant, working for him from 2001 until his 2019 arrest, and the newly examined records place her closer to his daily life than almost anyone else in the Epstein files. Her name reportedly appears more than any other name in the released material, because she handled the machinery of Epstein's world: calendars, travel, calls, appointments, visitors, gifts, household details, meals, flights, logistics, and the constant scheduling of massages. Groff has always maintained through her lawyers that she did not know Epstein was committing crimes, and she has never been criminally charged. But the record creates the obvious and uncomfortable question: how could someone so embedded in Epstein's routines, movements, communications, and appointments remain unaware of what was happening around him for nearly two decades? The documents show her as an intensely loyal functionary inside Epstein's operation, someone who could move from arranging absurd household preferences to coordinating meetings with powerful men, while also helping facilitate the flow of young women, guests, and associates through his homes and social orbit.The larger significance is that Groff's role sits in the gray zone between legal culpability, claimed ignorance, and moral responsibility. She was not Ghislaine Maxwell, and the public record does not show that prosecutors ever charged her as an accomplice, but she was also not a distant employee who occasionally answered a phone. She was the person Epstein relied on to make the system work, and that system included the very rhythms that survivors later described as central to his abuse: massages, travel, private meetings, assistants, young women, and a network of people whose access had to be managed. Congressional investigators have since sought to interview her because they believe she may have information that could help explain what the government missed or failed to act on. Groff's defense is that she did not know; the enduring problem is that the Epstein files make clear she was close enough to the center of the operation that the question of what she saw, what she understood, and what she chose not to ask remains impossible to avoid.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:‘Seriously the best boss ever': inside the world of Jeffrey Epstein's assistant | Jeffrey Epstein | The Guardian

Cranberries have been a staple of Indigenous culture in North America for hundreds of years – and not just as food. Soon, European settlers also found the benefits of the berry, which would eventually become the state fruit of Massachusetts. These days, cranberries hold a special place on our Thanksgiving tables, but also in everyday baked goods, granolas and, of course, as a delicious, tart juice. In honor of our ongoing celebration of America's 250th anniversary, we're boiling down the long history of cranberries in the United States.
Since its original creation in the 1970s, GPS has evolved from a technology primarily used by the military to a foundation for modern society. After the removal of selective availability for civilians in 2000, GPS's value has significantly expanded. In the past two decades, nearly every critical infrastructure sector–telecommunications, transportation, energy, agriculture, emergency services, and financial services–relies on GPS constellations to ensure that timing and location accuracy are precise. Though many do not see its utility in day-to-day efforts, GPS has become entrenched in modern networks and services. Key sources: Removal of selective availability.

Your Next Best Step: Helping Small Business owners build a plan for a brighter future
What if the overwhelm you are feeling as a founder is not coming from how much you have to do, but from how misaligned your business has become underneath the surface? In this deeply insightful episode of *The C-Suite Mentor podcast*, Theresa Cantley weaves a compelling personal narrative, recalling a pivotal conversation with her late business partner, Vanessa. This interaction, born out of Theresa's frustration with the challenges faced by Main Street businesses, crystallizes the profound 'why' behind her life's work. Theresa explores how many founder-led enterprises are inadvertently hindered by attempting to apply conventional corporate growth strategies—an 'old playbook'—that fails to honor their unique cultural DNA and community impact. Theresa delves into the critical distinction between the corporate approach to business scaling and the inherent strengths of Main Street. She challenges the notion that these businesses are somehow 'small' or 'left behind,' instead asserting their vital role as the backbone of communities, essential for economic development and human connection. She emphasizes that the current landscape, rife with digital complexities, actually amplifies the need for the authentic relationships and local presence that Main Street businesses provide. This episode serves as a powerful call for founders to recognize their inherent value and to re-evaluate their approach to growth. Theresa articulates that the path forward for Main Street businesses lies not in mimicking larger entities, but in building from the inside out, aligning their unique culture, values, and leadership vision to create sustainable growth and enduring legacy. It's an empowering message for any founder feeling disconnected or overwhelmed, inviting them to step into their role as visionary leaders who can redefine the future of business. Things to Listen For: • The profound 'why' behind supporting Main Street businesses • The emotional weight and frustration many founders silently carry • The critical shift from 'what you're doing' to 'why you're doing it' • Why Main Street businesses are rising, not disappearing • The misconception that Main Street businesses are inherently 'small' • How corporate playbooks often fail founder-led enterprises • The unique role of Main Street in healing society and rebuilding communities • Why human connection is more valuable than ever in business • How a founder's personality shapes their business culture • The pipeline problem: founders remaining 'in the middle of everything' • The identity shift required for founders to scale effectively • Building from the inside out as the foundation for true growth READY TO UNCOVER THE BLIND SPOT HURTING YOUR SMALL BUSINESS?

Today we're digging into a topic you might not have considered before: the importance of clean financial data. We talk about numbers constantly—how to focus on them, why they matter, and what you should be looking at. But we haven't truly discussed why having clean information is the absolute backbone of successful decision-making in a product-based business. The Danger of Dirty Data I recently spoke with two clients who were using a financial analysis tool to guide their buying. The tool kept telling them to buy more, buy more. They followed the data, thinking they were being efficient, only to end up buried in inventory that didn't move. That wasn't a supply chain problem or a marketing problem—it was a data problem. Dirty data is dangerous because it doesn't come with a warning label; it looks like fact, but it's actually fiction dressed as finance. What Does Dirty Data Look Like? If you want to avoid making wrong decisions confidently, watch out for these five common red flags: Miscategorized Transactions: Expenses floating in no man's land or assigned to the wrong revenue streams. COGS vs. OPEX Confusion: When your inventory purchases are blurred with operating expenses, you can't see your true margin. Timing Errors: Recognizing revenue when cash hits rather than when it's earned (Cash vs. Accrual). Inventory Valuation Gaps: Your books say you have 800 units, but your warehouse only has 500. Un-netted Discounts: Refunds and chargebacks that aren't properly subtracted from your top-line revenue. The Three Cs of Clean Data To run a genius inventory system, your data must be: Consistent: Applying the same rules and categories every single month. Connected: Your POS, bank account, and accounting software should all tell the same story. Current: Books should be reconciled and in your hands by the 15th–20th of every month—not just at tax time! 8 Key Data Points You Need to Track I want you to look at your dashboard and ask: “Do I actually have this number, and can I trust it?” Gross Margin by SKU: Not just overall, but by category and brand. Inventory Valuation: Real-time wholesale and retail value. 12–13 Week Cash Flow: A forward-looking projection of your bank balance. Net Revenue: Gross sales minus returns, fees, and discounts. Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC): What it actually costs to get a buyer through the door. Inventory Turn: How fast your product is moving by department. All-in Cost Per Unit: The landed cost including shipping and handling. Contribution Margin: Revenue minus all variable costs to see what truly goes toward profit. Your 3-Step Data Audit Don't just listen—take action today with these three simple steps: Step 1: Pull your P&L and go line-by-line. Ensure every expense is correctly categorized. Step 2: Confirm your bookkeeper is reconciling accounts monthly and delivering reports on time. Step 3: Check your POS. Ensure every SKU has an accurate cost associated with it. Final Thought: Stop treating your books like a tax document and start treating them like a GPS. Clean data leads to better decisions, which leads to stronger margins, which leads to cash.

Tuesday's show was unhinged from the start. Rats the size of small dogs have taken over the Westfield Bondi Junction food court and there are apparently between 500 million and one billion of them in Greater Sydney at any time. Nikki Osborne stopped by in a full greyhound dress to chat about her new roast show Bush Deep launching today on YouTube and the Nova Player. Jermaine casually revealed he has an extra bone in his body and we had follow up questions. Americans cannot say the word crayon and we went down that rabbit hole. Benedict Cumberbatch got into a fight with a cyclist which is very on brand. Today's Glossys covered the roast of Kevin Hart. Aussies called in to expose their most bludgy jobs and it got competitive. And Anthony from The Wiggles came in with his daughter Lucia to play Sing, which was an absolutely lovely moment.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Host Holly Wayment brings us Houston spine surgeon Rex Marco who, after a terrible cycling accident , faced life-changing paralysis to recovery through mindfulness, the RAIN method, and radical acceptance. He describes what happened to him and how in one moment everything can change. His work now explores how compassion, mindfulness, and vulnerability can reshape how we live, lead, and heal. In 2019, Dr. Marco sustained a C3–4 fracture-dislocation in a cycling accident, resulting in C2 quadriplegia.

Why now Sean? I had Covid vibes when I read Sean Sweeney's thinking about the CRL. It was Covid vibes because during that period I cannot tell you how many people I know and regularly dealt with, whether it was people in the media or people from business, who said one thing about the Government and their handling of lockdowns and the economy in private, and something completely different in public. So Sean, having left the CRL to head to Ireland, has now left Ireland but has stopped by long enough to tell us we don't scope our price major projects that well. Who knew? The CRL, at well over $5 billion, is a gargantuan waste of money. Yes, it will improve things and on paper it makes sense because it joins up some rail lines so you can go around and around. But like most things in life, convenience, improvement, or efficiency comes at a cost. What's a terrific idea at $50 is a waste at $200. And for something that started out about $2 billion and will come in at about $6 billion, the CRL has reached the stage where no one really wants to accept responsibility any more for the price and delays, because it got embarrassing a long time ago and tipped over into "well let's just make the most of it and hope it works". It won't of course. Not to the extent they dreamed, because what they dream of is New York and London, and we have never been that and never will be. Anyway, part of where Sean is right is ideology blinds common sense. Too many people want a say and before you know it, everything is a combination of delayed and expensive. Yes, the fast-track RMA reform will help. Less legal action will help. Fewer opportunities for review will help. And God forbid, cross party support would help. But what would also help is some backbone – people who say what they believe, whether it gets them attention, or into trouble, or not. There are too many pussies in places of influence. Too many spineless, scaredy cats who want the job, or the title, or the reputation, or the pay-packet, and just grin and bear it, or defend it, or lie about it, and babble nonsensical rubbish instead of being honest. As much as I appreciate Sean telling it like it is, and he's right and possibly someone in charge might take notice, what I would appreciate more was the same commentary before he filed the resignation letter and scarpered.

Building Repeatables in Claude: Skills, CLI vs MCP and Token Discipline | Go With The Flow Claude Skills, CLI vs MCP and Token Discipline with Ritu Java | Seller Sessions SEO Description Ritu Java and Danny McMillan on building agentic skills, choosing CLI over MCP, plan mode discipline and the short window to ship before token costs reset. Episode Summary Week 4 of the month, Go With The Flow, and Ritu Java is back from her travels. The world has shipped fast since the last episode: Codex 5.5, Claude 4.7, an Amazon Ads MCP and a fresh round of panic over the rumoured removal of Claude Code from the $20 plan (it was a 2% AB test, not a rollout). Ritu and Danny use the noise to make a sharper point: this is the moment to stop chasing models and start building repeatable systems on the platform you have already chosen. Ritu walks through the three eras of PPC Ninja's automation stack. Apps Script bulk file generators three years ago, Netlify hosted UI apps last year, and now agentic skills that her team chats with in plain English to produce upload ready Amazon bulk files. The same shift applies to data: BigQuery accessed through the Google Cloud CLI rather than through MCP, because CLI is leaner on tokens and works better when the job is heavy on data rather than tool surface. Danny mirrors the move with his event-ops CLI for WordPress, WooCommerce, Stripe and FooEvents reconciliation, and his four tier ExtractFlow cascade (HTTP, headless, stealth, agentic) that bypasses the limits of any single browser tool. The second half is a discipline talk. Plan mode every time. Push back on the first plan because Claude over engineers by default. 30% of your time on workflow scaffolding so the other 70% can be real building. The 21 day Claude rule: when a shiny new tool fires the dopamine, wait 21 days before refactoring around it. Left brain tasks (counting, SQL, deterministic logic) belong in scripts. Right brain tasks (judgment, creativity, hypotheses) belong in the model. Mix them inside a single skill. Skills are micro pieces of your workflow, not magic, and Claude can write them for you from an existing SOP. Key Topics The three eras of PPC Ninja automation: Apps Script, Netlify UI apps, agentic skills CLI vs MCP: when to choose each and why CLI is more token efficient for data heavy work Token economics, the rumoured $20 plan change and why it was a 2% AB test The short window before subsidised tokens get repriced Plan mode discipline and the "push back on plan one" rule Danny's 30 / 70 framework: workflow scaffolding vs building The 21 day Claude rule for resisting tool churn Left brain vs right brain task design inside a single skill The PPC Ninja "5 Whys" skill: deterministic SQL plus non deterministic hypotheses Claude.md, Gemini.md, Skills.yaml and the emerging Agents.md standard Skills for beginners: let Claude write them from your SOP Skill cascading: research, article, LinkedIn post, tweets, slide deck in one chain Timestamps [00:01] Welcome back, Week 4 Go With The Flow, Ritu returns from travels [00:17] Codex 5.5, Claude 4.7 and the "no one is writing code anymore" reality [02:01] Ritu on the three eras of PPC Ninja automation [02:42] Era 1: Apps Script bulk file generators in Google Sheets [03:46] Era 2: Netlify hosted UI apps with input fields [04:48] Era 3: Agentic skills, the bulk file skill trained on Amazon templates [06:22] Cloud talking to BigQuery through the Google Cloud CLI [07:00] Danny: what is a CLI and why it matters for token use [08:00] Amazon Advertising MCP vs CLI based access to the same data [09:33] WordPress horrible to drive via MCP, easy via CLI [10:00] Danny's event-ops CLI: tickets, food tickets, WooCommerce, Stripe reconciliation [12:13] ExtractFlow four tier cascade: soft, medium, stealth, agentic [13:46] Why CLI for the heavy stuff, MCP for the soft touch [14:13] AWS CLI: chat to Claude, push HTML blog posts live in two minutes [15:33] The overwhelm problem and the 5,000costbehindthe5,000costbehindthe100 plan [17:35] The $20 plan rumour: it was a 2% AB test, not a rollout [19:38] Build repeatables, not one offs [20:38] Danny: pick a platform and stop chasing benchmarks [21:16] The 21 day Claude rule for new tools [22:16] Plan mode every time, push back on plan one, get the second plan [23:02] Why am I building it, who is it for, what am I building [23:30] The 30 / 70 split: workflow scaffolding vs real building [25:13] Why long six to fourteen hour Claude runs are usually inefficiency [27:12] Compounding 1% a day across a year [27:47] "I build the things that build things" [28:00] Architecture vs apps: filling the gaps between A and B [29:06] Left brain vs right brain task design [30:01] Why throwing 80/20 at a sales drop diagnosis fails [31:33] The PPC Ninja 5 Whys skill: deterministic plus non deterministic in one flow [34:32] Claude.md, Gemini.md, skills.yaml and the agents.md standard [40:53] Beginners: let Claude write the skill from your SOP, use the interview pattern [42:39] Skill cascading: URL to research to article to LinkedIn post to tweets to slides [44:42] Mixing deterministic and non deterministic inside a single skill [45:39] Wrap up, signal to noise, who is it for Key Takeaways Pick a platform and stop chasing models. A new model ships every week. Time spent benchmarking is time not building. Double down on Claude (or whichever you chose), use the 21 day rule, and let the ecosystem catch up to the shiny thing in your feed. CLI for heavy work, MCP for soft touch. MCP loads tools and skills into context and burns tokens. CLI uses programs already on your machine. For data heavy jobs (BigQuery, AWS, WordPress at scale), CLI wins. For light cross app workflows, MCP is fine. Build repeatables, not one offs. Subsidised tokens will not last. The 100planreportedlycostsAnthropic100planreportedlycostsAnthropic5,000 to serve. Spend the window building scaffolding that compounds, not 14 hour vibe coding runs. Plan mode every time, then push back. Claude over engineers by default. Generate the plan, then say "you have over engineered this, although I want it elegant, go back and review." Plan two is the one you start from. 30% on workflow, 70% on building. Each new dependency, MCP, skill or repo you add to your workflow compounds across every future project. Stop building only the apps. Build the things that build the apps. Left brain in scripts, right brain in the model. Counting, SQL, deterministic logic belongs in Python the moment you can offload it. Save the model for hypotheses, judgment and creativity. The PPC Ninja 5 Whys skill mixes both inside one flow. Skills are micro pieces, not magic. Take an SOP, ask Claude to interview you with decision panels, and let it write the skill. Then cascade skills together: URL to research to long form article to LinkedIn post to tweets to slide deck. Notable Quotes "Instead of doing one offs, it is time to build repeatables. The more people can learn that skill now, the better it will be, because a year from now you may not have access to the same tokens." Ritu Java "If you see something and it looks sexy and it has sex and sizzle and your dopamine is screaming to go after it, wait 21 days. Either Claude will have it, or someone will have a repo, and you can combine it." Danny McMillan "Always use plan mode. Never accept plan number one. Tell Claude: you have over engineered this, although I want it elegant, go back and review. Then start from plan two." Danny McMillan "I build the things that build things. I build the scaffolding the team needs so they can build on top of it." Danny McMillan "Spend 30% of your time on your workflow and 70% building. The 30% compounds across every project." Danny McMillan "If we just hand six months of ad, organic, ranking and SQP data to Claude with no structure, it is going to mess up. It will give you an 80/20 you are not satisfied with, because it is not equipped to handle that volume without scaffolding." Ritu Java "WordPress is horrible to work with through MCP. It falls over all the time. CLI can be amazing for certain things."

In this episode of the Engineering Influence Podcast, ACEC's Thomas Grogan sits down with Dan Palo of Barr Engineering to unpack one of the most important—and often overlooked—topics shaping our future: critical minerals. What exactly makes a mineral “critical”? Why are materials like lithium, rare earth elements, copper, and uranium suddenly at the center of conversations around energy, infrastructure, and national security? Dan breaks it all down—exploring how these essential resources power everything from batteries and electrification to data centers and advanced technologies. The conversation also dives into the growing urgency around supply chain resilience and how the U.S. is responding through research investments, public–private partnerships, and renewed efforts to boost domestic production. But it's not without challenges. From complex permitting processes to workforce development gaps and the need for better recycling and reuse (circularity), the path forward requires coordination, innovation, and long-term thinking. The episode wraps with a grounded, practical message: building durable, bipartisan support for domestic critical mineral development starts with better public understanding. Education, transparency, and collaboration will be key to securing the resources that underpin modern life. Tune in for a thoughtful, forward-looking conversation on the materials powering our world—and what it will take to ensure a stable, sustainable supply for generations to come.

On this episode of Area Code: Batavia, I'm talking to Bonnie Baumgartner and Jessica Jecmen from Water Street Studios, Batavia's community art center.Batavia has a reputation as being the "artsy" sibling of Geneva and St. Charles, a direct result of people taking active interest in giving artistic work and artistic communities a home. The reality is, without Water Street Studios, and the people who gave their money and time to make it possible, Batavia would be a lot less creative, and honestly? A lot more boring.But what happens when that art is weird or jarring?
