In a recent episode of The Valley Today, host Janet Michael welcomes Elise Stine Dolinar, the driving force behind Bright Futures Frederick/Winchester. Their conversation, happening against the backdrop of the annual "Camping for Hunger" week, delves into the heart of a community initiative that goes far beyond simply filling backpacks with food. Bright Futures, as Elise passionately explains, is dedicated to ensuring that every student—regardless of circumstance—has access to the essentials they need to succeed in school and in life. The Weekend Food Pack Program: Logistics and Love At the core of Bright Futures' efforts is the weekend food pack program. Each week, volunteers assemble over a thousand bags of shelf-stable, allergy-conscious food items. These bags are discreetly placed in students' backpacks, ensuring that children who might otherwise go hungry have enough to eat until school resumes. Elise describes the logistical ballet required to coordinate donations, manage inventory, and accommodate special dietary needs. The program's success hinges on the generosity of local donors and the tireless work of school staff and volunteers. Beyond Hunger: Clothing, Hygiene, and Dignity However, Bright Futures' mission doesn't stop at food. Elise and her team respond to a wide range of student needs, from winter coats and shoes to hygiene products and even sleeping bags for homeless youth. The organization works closely with school counselors, who act as the eyes and ears on the ground, identifying students in need and maintaining their privacy. This system ensures that help is delivered quickly and discreetly, preserving the dignity of every child. Community Collaboration: Volunteers and Donors Step Up Transitioning from logistics to community impact, Janet and Elise highlight the crucial role of volunteers and donors. Whether it's a church group packing food bags, individuals donating new coats or clearing out store shelves during sales, the community's involvement is the lifeblood of Bright Futures. Elise shares stories of last-minute shopping trips for shoes and the creative ways the team stretches every dollar, often leveraging partnerships with organizations like the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank to maximize the impact of cash donations. Facing Challenges: Holidays, Snow Days, and the Unexpected The conversation also addresses the unique challenges posed by school breaks and unexpected closures. Elise explains how Bright Futures prepares special food boxes for holidays and adapts quickly when snow days disrupt their carefully planned schedules. Flexibility and foresight are essential, as is the unwavering commitment to never turn away a child in need. Empowering Students and Staff As the conversation wraps up, Elise emphasizes the importance of empowering both students and school staff. In-school food pantries allow older students to access food independently, while donations help relieve the financial burden on teachers and counselors who often dip into their own pockets to help students. The organization's work, Elise notes, is only possible thanks to the "angels in the schools" and the broader community that believes in supporting every child. A Call to Action Ultimately, this conversation shines a light on the power of community action. Bright Futures stands as a testament to what can be achieved when people come together with compassion, creativity, and a shared vision. As Janet and Elise urge, whether through donations, volunteering, or simply spreading the word, everyone has a role to play in ensuring that no child is left behind.

Quand le narcotrafic façonne une société entière, comment vit-on au quotidien dans l'un des quartiers les plus exposés d'Amérique du Sud ?Cet épisode d'Autochtone vous propose une plongée sans filtre en Colombie, au cœur de Medellín et de la Comuna 13, où la violence a longtemps dicté les règles et où chaque habitant-e vit avec les conséquences directes du trafic mondial de drogue.À travers le témoignage de Stiven, guide, habitant et témoin du changement, on découvre les frontières invisibles, la peur des représailles, l'obligation de composer avec les gangs. Ici, impossible d'ignorer les enjeux : la Colombie reste le premier producteur mondial de cocaïne. Ce phénomène pèse sur les familles, organise la vie des quartiers et façonne un destin collectif – depuis les années 70, la guerre civile, les cartels, l'abandon de certaines régions par l'État, et le rôle des groupes armés.Les conséquences du narcotrafic se lisent dans les chiffres : millions de déplacés internes, multiplication des acteurs violents, règles imposées par la terreur… et, pour celleux qui restent, l'espoir que quelques solutions émergent. Si, dans certains endroits, le tourisme a offert une échappatoire – à l'image de la Comuna 13 transformée par l'art urbain et la créativité des jeunes – il ne résout rien à l'échelle d'un pays encore profondément marqué par la violence et la loi du marché noir.Cet épisode explore la complexité de la situation : pourquoi la coca est-elle toujours cultivée ? Comment vivent celles et ceux, comme Stiven, qui refusent de quitter leur quartier ? Quel prix la population paie-t-elle pour un trafic qui répond à une demande internationale ?Il faut rappeler que la Colombie est un pays dangereux avant tout pour celles et ceux qui y vivent au quotidien : les habitants paient le prix fort, alors que les touristes, bien que concernés par les enjeux, sont rarement la cible de cette violence structurelle.Autochtone vous invite à poser un regard éclairé sur une réalité souvent caricaturée, et à saisir ce que signifie, pour les habitants de Colombie, vivre, résister et, parfois, transformer leur destin à travers l'art, la solidarité – et, peut-être, un tourisme conscient.Logo : Romain Didier Crédit musique : Arecife by espacio negativoAwamamba, AMbeefMinima Instrumental Huntley Suspenseful Ticking Instrumental - Mathild Empereur Hébergé par Ausha.

Weighted backpack, karate video recorded, 75 HARD Day 31

Marcus Gurule (better known as "G") took the common army backpack material, Cordura, and used it to craft baseball gloves for Emery Glove Company. G is an Army veteran who served the United States for two decades. It had to be destiny that he was able to join up with Emery right at the time that they were working with the military-inspired Cordura material to improve their baseball glove offerings and differentiate themselves in the market!Our Beyond the Glove conversation took us back to G's roots in California and New Mexico where his mother taught him to sew and where he observed his father taking care of the local baseball league's worn-down equipment. Fast forward many years and multiple tours of duty in the Global War on Terrorism, he was urged to take up a hobby as his career in the Army was winding down. The hobby he chose drew inspiration from the examples demonstrated by both his parents: using his sewing skill to help repair damaged baseball gloves. He spent a few years behind a sewing machine fixing baseball gloves late at night while he was completing his military career during the days. Those late nights allowed him to build his own personal glove repair brand (known as Guts and Glory Trade). And once his time in the Army was officially complete, he had a full body of (glove)work to display and was able to market himself as a dynamic designer to glove brands. After plenty of grind, Emery decided to bring him on board in 2022 and the company has flourished since G joined the team.You'll be inspired when you hear the story of G's journey through the military, to running his own glove repair brand and finally to crafting gloves for a rapidly-rising glove company!

In 1980, a 20-year-old Graham Broyd turned a prestigious six-week scholarship to Washington, D.C. into the adventure of a lifetime. He traded his ticket for a flight to Los Angeles with a dream of surfing in Malibu and a wild plan to hitchhike across the country. In this episode, Graham shares the incredible story of his journey, a tale he revisited in 2024 to see how the country and he had changed. This is the ultimate story of hitchhiking across America then and now. What happens when you have just $600 to survive for six weeks, relying on your wits and the kindness—or danger—of strangers?This sprawling conversation, a must-listen for fans of incredible travel stories, is like a living "Backpack, Jacket, Surfboard" book review. Author Graham Broyd sits down with Blaine DeSantis to recount his unbelievable journey. We hear tales of extreme budget survival, like his method for turning a single Big Mac into a three-course meal, a story that comically landed his book in the "cooking humor" category on Amazon. Graham shares the unwritten rules and etiquette of the road, offering a fascinating look into the lost art of hitchhiking. This Graham Broyd travel memoir comes to life as he discusses his disastrous first attempt at surfing in Malibu, how he acquired an eight-foot surfboard as a travel companion, and the frightening night he spent alone in the desolate expanse of Death Valley.The episode explores the stark difference between America in 1980 vs 2024, contrasting the past with the present through Graham's retraced journey. He shares thrilling and sometimes chilling stories from hitchhiking America, from navigating an unwelcome advance near the Grand Canyon to the bizarre experience of ending up in Tijuana, Mexico on a trip to Malibu—a mystery he still hasn't solved. We learn how a single smart jacket gave him access to the high-rolling casinos of 1980s Las Vegas and how a chance encounter in a youth hostel led to a stunning interview with Senator Howard Baker about the Panama Canal Treaty. This detailed look at hitchhiking across America then and now culminates in a tale of unexpected benevolence on the gritty subways of New York City, proving that adventure and humanity can be found where you least expect them.About Our Guest:Graham Broyd is the author of the travel memoir "Backpack, Jacket, Surfboard." In 1980, at the age of 20, he embarked on an impromptu hitchhiking trip across the United States, a journey that profoundly shaped his life. Over 40 years later, he retraced his steps to recapture 24 photos from his original trip, discovering not only how much America had changed, but how much he had as well.Timestamps:(00:00) A Scholarship Becomes an Epic Adventure(02:12) From D.C.

What's in your backpack? What are you carrying around with you from yesterday? Life is full of adventure, lessons, memories, and stress. As we go and do stuff and interact with others, we have a tendency to take bits of those moments and carry them with us. Those bits can add up to weigh us down. When we focus on God, He will tell us what we need to carry and what to drop. We get to start each day with an empty backpack. We can choose to not carry the past with us.Have a listen, and let us know what you think.Have the best week! Enjoy the journey!

When it comes to a child's backpack, 10% to 15% of body weight is the maximum safe range, according to the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP). For example, a backpack that weighs 6.6 to 10 lbs. (3 to 4.5 kg) is recommended for a child weighing 66 pounds (30 kilograms) 5% to 10% of body weight is recommended for smaller children, those who have longer walks or commute, or if pain is already present Weigh, don't guess — use a bathroom scale to check. If the pack exceeds the range, remove items or split the load The way a backpack fits is just as important as its weight. Always use two straps, keep the pack high and snug, and place heavier items close to the spine Watch for warning signs that a backpack is too heavy, including leaning forward, red strap marks, tingling or numbness, or frequent complaints of back, neck, or shoulder pain

In some places, the nearest safe operating room can be hours or even days away. We find out about a portable operating theatre called SurgiBox that fits in a backpack and inflates in minutes, creating a sterile space for operations almost anywhere. We meet the inventor, see it put to the test, and speak to a surgeon who has used it to save lives far from a hospital. We also hear from Field Ready, whose engineers in Syria are using 3D printing to bring broken hospital equipment back to life, and we hear about Sudan's Emergency Response Rooms — grassroots command centres where volunteers coordinate life-saving help and vital information in the midst of war.Presenter: Myra Anubi Producer: Craig Langran Editor: Jon Bithrey Sound mix: Gareth Jones(Image: A 'patient' demonstrates the equipment in the Surgibox, BBC)

The More Sibyl Podcast Presents: 학교 부모 현실| Raising Kids, Navigating Schools: What Parents Really Face | Episode 28 (2025)It's back-to-school season, and while many families are packing lunches and buying supplies, some of us — especially in immigrant or multicultural homes — carry invisible loads. We're advocating for kids who don't “fit the mold,” navigating behavioral concerns, or trying to decode school systems never designed with us in mind.That's why we hosted “More Than a Backpack,” a live panel born out of my own rough start to kindergarten with my daughter. What followed was a raw, honest, and deeply needed conversation with parents and professionals who know this weight firsthand.Ms. Farah, worship pastor, creative leader, and mom of six, shared wisdom from home and ministry. Her reminder: the system is too overwhelmed to parent our kids and knowing their individual needs is our sacred work.Dr. Ihyembe, developmental-behavioral pediatrician, explained why some appointments can't be squeezed into 15 minutes and how parents must see themselves as advocates, not outsiders. She drew a clear line between what pills can and can't do and when to seek professional help.Mr. Afolabiyi, husband and dad of three, spoke with candor about the quiet weight fathers carry, urging couples to stay united and keep children's needs first.Ms. Millicent, nurse practitioner, content creator, and mom of four, brought humor and honesty. She reminded us that “real” parenting isn't about being perfect, and that grace and connection matter just as much as grades.Ms. Shola Adewumi, mom of two and nursing student, shared her journey raising a son labeled “too emotional.” Guided by faith, she learned to trust her instincts and advocate for him in ways that mattered.In my own reflections, I compared navigating U.S. schools with Nigeria's system and saw how adaptation isn't optional; it's essential. Across all stories ran the same thread: parents filling gaps with lessons, encouragement, and relentless advocacy, because our children are more than grades or labels.

We are both traveling soon, so the question is: which gaming devices are we taking with us? Jason has played several games including Star Wars Outlaws Demo, Hollow Knight, and Clair Obscur, kind of.

In this episode, host Zach Urness talks with outdoors intern Rose Shimberg about backpacking the 40-mile trail around Mount Hood: the Timberline Trail. In late August, Shimberg spent three nights backpacking the loop, journeying through terrain including waterfalls, high alpine landscapes, lush forests and deep canyons. She reports on how to navigate the trail's notorious stream crossings and the status of the "blowdown section" that was closed for years by downed trees. Shimberg also talks about where to find cell service, find an amazing breakfast and spots on the trail to not miss.

✅ Why your emotional health is the greatest gift to your kids ✅ How to parent non-reactively when hormones and emotions run high ✅ The "backpack" you're handing your children (and how to lighten it) ✅ Simple calendar strategies that reveal what you truly value Full Show Notes Fall 2025 DadAwesome Accelerator SUMMARY Parenting doesn't have to be about survival mode. In this episode, Glenn Packiam shares how intentional rhythms and a focus on resilience can transform your family life. From learning to be non-reactive when hormones hit to using your calendar as a tool for what you truly value, Glenn offers practical wisdom for dads navigating everything from toddlers to young adults getting married. Plus, discover why the healthiest gift you can give your kids might be your own emotional well-being. Key Takeaways: You're going to hand your kids a "backpack" whether you like it or not—the goal is to make it as light as possible by dealing with your own emotional health first. Non-reactive parenting starts with slowing your breath and asking "what else is going on here?" instead of jumping to conclusions. Resilience isn't about avoiding hard emotions—it's about how quickly you recover and what you learn from difficult seasons. Your calendar reveals your true values; intentional rhythms like family dinners and Sabbath don't happen by accident. One of the greatest gifts you can give your children is your own repentance when you mess up. GUEST: Glenn Packiam is the author of The Intentional Year and several other books focused on spiritual formation and resilience. He's a pastor, speaker, and father of four children ranging from teenagers to young adults. Glenn lives in Southern California with his wife Holly, and his oldest daughter recently got engaged. He's passionate about helping parents move from survival mode to intentional, rhythmic family life that builds resilience in both parents and children.
