Today with Michael Barbarita: You already know the feeling. You glance at the checkbook, you see a number that looks okay, and you decide that's good enough. You don't open QuickBooks. You don't look at your gross profit percent. Some part of you is afraid that if you actually looked, you might not like what you'd find. Michael Barbarita has spent thirty years inside businesses just like yours, first as an owner himself, growing a retail company called Ski Town USA from two and a half million dollars to eight million in under five years, and now as a fractional CFO through his company, Next Step CFO, working mostly with owners in the trades. He told LuAnn something simple that changes how you think about your numbers for good: the time to look is when it's cloudy, not when it's raining. Michael doesn't ask his clients to become accountants. He gives them five numbers, what he calls the vital five, and a rhythm for checking them. Sales, gross profit, gross profit percent, and net profit get pulled from your weekly P&L, and for most owners, that report is already sitting in your accounting software waiting to be opened. Cash is the one exception. That number gets checked every single day, because cash is what can sink you fastest, and it's the one number you can't afford to only glance at once a week. LuAnn connects Michael's framework directly to something she and her husband Vin have pushed Exciting Windows members toward for years, a fifty five to sixty percent gross profit margin. Once you're actually watching your gross profit percent every week, you have a real answer to whether you're anywhere close to that target, instead of a guess. The conversation goes further into why so many business owners let their accounts receivable slide, and Michael's five components of what he calls a compelling offer, the framework he uses with clients to get them out of competing on price. LuAnn ties it back to something she's said for years, that you have to sell the transformation your work creates, not the blind, the shade, or the drape itself. If pricing and margin are the piece that's nagging at you after this one, go back and listen to WTFP #199, Solo Margins Matter, for the fuller case on what discounting below a healthy margin actually costs your business.

US President Donald Trump's Board of Peace and his 20-point Gaza peace plan are off to a rocky start. Israeli-Hamas differences over the sequencing of the group's decommissioning of arms and Israel's withdrawal from Gaza are the tip of the iceberg, with Israel yet to endorse Mr. Trump's announcement that they had agreed to a phased implementation of his plan. The differences mask the seemingly unbridgeable gap between Israel and the Palestinians over the end goal of Gaza's transition after almost three years of war between Israel, traumatised by Hamas's brutal October 7, 2023, attack, and a Strip and Palestinian polity shattered by Israel's devastating and ruthless response.

A second-gen family office investor says ego is the single biggest destroyer of wealth — it makes you miss small details, over-rely on past success, and walk into deals you should have walked away from. An audience member introduces private placement life insurance — a custom IRS-compliant policy structure that lets your family office hold alternative assets in a tax-deferred environment.

For review:1. Saudi Arabia is gearing up for a major offensive against the Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen, by sea and possibly including a ground operation, The Guardian reported Thursday. 2.  The United States and Israel are planning what would be one of the harshest bombing campaigns to date against energy infrastructure in Iran, multiple sources told CBS News, with strikes possible throughout the weekend. 3.  The Israeli military blew up a Hezbollah tunnel system beneath the Beaufort Ridge in southern Lebanon, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz announced late Thursday night in a joint statement. They said the Israel Defense Forces used 700 tons of explosives to demolish the subterranean facility.  4. US President Donald Trump announced Thursday that his Board of Peace had reached an agreement on the “complete disarmament of Hamas and all other armed groups in Gaza.” 5. USMC F-35B crasheded today  in California, according to the service. The pilot ejected and is in stable condition at a local medical facility, the service said in a statement. The pilot is being treated and evaluated for non-life-threatening injuries, the statement added. No additional details were immediately available. 

Hamas says it's agreed to a plan put forward by President Trump's Board of Peace to completely disarm in Gaza. The BBC understands that the proposal provides for the inventory and storage of Hamas's remaining heavy weapons under Palestinian oversight. There's been no comment yet from Israel, but Mr Trump said they would eventually withdraw from Gaza.

What would you think if you arrived at a trailhead and saw runners strapping full-size ironing boards to their backs? That's exactly how Don and Scott discovered Iron X, a 13-mile extreme ironing race through the trails of Auburn, California. Race creator Ben Mitchell and participant Brian Goldman explain the surprisingly real world of extreme ironing, the rules of carrying an ironing board through the wilderness, and the seven checkpoints where competitors must stop and iron their shirts in places ranging from the American River to an abandoned car. But beneath the absurdity is something that feels increasingly important in trail running: grassroots events built around community, creativity, and simply having a good time. The conversation also explores the challenges facing small race directors, the value of low-key “fat ass” events, and Brian's work helping financially struggling runners participate in the sport. It's a reminder that some of the best trail running experiences may have nothing to do with qualifying points, lotteries, or prestigious finish lines, and everything to do with showing up, finding your people, and not taking yourself too seriously.

It's Fighting Back With an Army of Immunity LawsMore than a decade after investigations found that Exxon Mobil had known about the dangers of global warming since the 1970s but publicly downplayed the threat, lawsuits against oil companies have proliferated. There are nearly 40 of these cases pending across the countryIn the meantime, the industry has been mobilizing a counterattack against the lawsuits with the help of the Trump administration and Republican politicians.Republicans are trying to pass laws to grant oil majors immunity to these kinds of lawsuits, with success in several states so far.Utah, Iowa, Tennessee, Oklahoma, and Louisiana have recently signed laws shielding fossil fuel companies from lawsuits related to greenhouse gas emissionsOil executives have also gotten help from the federal government, following an executive order from President Donald Trump last year directing the attorney general to prioritize blocking climate lawsuits by states.This May, the Justice Department responded to Minnesota's climate lawsuit against Big Oil with a lawsuit of its own, just as the state's case was moving into the discovery phase. It said Minnesota was undermining “American energy dominance” and attempting to regulate greenhouse gases, which should fall under the purview of federal law—echoing the oil industry's well-known argument.Elon Musk Is Quietly Turning to This Fossil Fuel to Power His AI AmbitionsSam Altman Announces That the Singularity Has Arrived: a hypothetical future point in time when technological growth becomes autonomous, uncontrollable, and irreversible, fundamentally transforming human civilization“We are now, like, in the singularity ...

President Trump says the Board of Peace deal will result in the "complete disarmament" of Hamas in Gaza. Hamas says the handover of its heavy weapons depends on Israel ending "all forms of aggression" and withdrawing from Gaza. Israel says of Hamas: "We have to verify what they are doing, not what they are saying." Could this agreement lead to a lasting peace?

Donald Trump presenteert via zijn Board of Peace een akkoord waarbij Hamas en andere gewapende Palestijnse groeperingen in Gaza instemmen met een gefaseerde ontwapening. In ruil daarvoor zouden Israëlische troepen stap voor stap uit de Gazastrook vertrekken en een internationale stabilisatiemacht samen met een nieuwe Palestijnse politiemacht de veiligheid gaan waarborgen. Maar van een definitief akkoord is allerminst sprake: Israël heeft het akkoord niet ondertekend en reageert volgens media vooralsnog sceptisch. In Spanje escaleert de situatie rond de exclave Ceuta, waar mogelijk 20.000 migranten na een zwemtocht proberen de EU te bereiken. De lokale overheid vraagt om de noodtoestand, minstens 18 mensen komen om het leven en de regionale regering spreekt van een nationale veiligheidscrisis. Intussen dreigt premier Pedro Sánchez de grens met Marokko te sluiten, terwijl Italië het Schengenverdrag met Spanje deels wil opschorten. Op de financiële markten zetten Apple en Amazon uiteenlopende lijnen neer in hun nieuwste kwartaalcijfers. Apple verwacht door een tekort aan geavanceerde chips een lagere groei dan gehoopt en compenseert hogere kosten met prijsverhogingen en goedkopere modellen, terwijl Amazon juist fors investeert in nieuwe datacenters nu de clouddivisie AWS met 37% groeit en beleggers het expansieverhaal overtuigend vinden.

Why is the Oversight Board studying systems from OpenAI and Anthropic in the first place?

    Kenneth (Ken) Bryant Hodges, III was elected to the Court of Appeals by the citizens of Georgia in 2018, winning every county in the state with wide bipartisan support in a contested election for a rare open seat on the Court. Judge Hodges took office on Jan. 1, 2019, and was elected again state-wide in 2024. With deep experience in diverse practice areas, Judge Hodges has served as a prosecutor, defended criminal cases, and been on both sides of a dispute in civil matters. He has been a court appointed receiver and a mediator. Judge Hodges is applying this experience on the bench to uphold the rule of law and ensure justice for all. Judge Hodges was born and raised in Albany, GA. He graduated from Episcopal High School in Alexandria, VA, and earned his B.A. from Emory University in Political Science and Sociology with a minor in English in 1988. While at the University of Georgia Law School, he participated in a clinical program with a public defender and was sworn in under the Third Year Student Practice Act to try cases. He earned his J.D. from UGA Law in 1991 and set out to become a litigator. After working with a litigation firm in Atlanta, he returned to Albany as an Assistant District Attorney. Judge Hodges was elected District Attorney of the Dougherty Judicial Circuit in 1996 at the age of 30. Within the first two years, he cleared out a backlog of eight death penalty cases and took them to trial. He formed trial teams which effectively ended unnecessary delays in moving cases forward, and focused on laws and programs to better protect children in the county. This included a child prosecution unit, a child advocacy center, a truancy program to target unauthorized school absences, and he also established a sexual assault unit. In his second term, he was named District Attorney of the Year for the State of Georgia.  During his 12 years as District Attorney, Ken was committed to managing an efficient office, which operated under budget every year. He was elected President of the DA's Association and also served as Chairman of the Prosecuting Attorney's Council; he was appointed by Governor Roy Barnes as Chairman of the Legal Loan Forgiveness Task Force and as a member of the Certainty in Sentencing Commission. In 2008, he returned to private practice, working in transactional law and then litigation. In 2015, Ken started his own law firm, Ken Hodges Law, based in Albany and Atlanta with a focus on commercial litigation. Judge Hodges was elected President of the State Bar of Georgia (2018-2019), the first judge to lead the organization in its history. He currently serves on the State Bar's Office of General Counsel Oversight Committee, is Chairman of the Advisory Board for Truist-Albany, and is Vice-Chairman of the Albany-Dougherty Airport Commission. Ken also serves on the Board of Advisors of University of Georgia's State Botanical Garden and the Board of Directors of the Southwest Georgia Legal Self-Help Center, a non-profit that works to improve access to justice for low-income people in the region. Judge Hodges has been widely recognized for his legal and civic accomplishments during his more than 27 years as a practicing attorney, including as the recipient of the State Bar's Commitment to Equality Award, the Justice Benham Award for CommunityService, and The Eagle Award from the Criminal Justice Coordinating Council for his work on behalf of crime victims.

There is a growing community of Hispanic homebuyers in Fairfield County who are ready to buy, ready to build wealth through real estate, and often underserved by the industry. In this episode of the CT Real Estate Edge Podcast, Rob Weinberg sits down with Jennifer Morales, a bilingual real estate agent with Century 21 AllPoints Realty in Stamford, to talk about what it actually looks like to serve the Spanish-speaking community with the level of care and clarity every buyer deserves.

She holds a BBA cum laude from Western Connecticut State University, has a background in financial analysis and small business ownership, and serves on the Finance Committee of INTEMPO's Board of Directors, a nonprofit deeply rooted in the Latino community of Fairfield County. She understands the financial questions, the cultural nuances, and the real barriers that Hispanic buyers and sellers face in today's market, and she is doing something about it one transaction at a time. If you are a Spanish-speaking buyer or seller in Stamford, Norwalk, or the surrounding area, or if you simply want to understand this important and growing segment of the Connecticut real estate market, this episode is for you.

Chaz and AJ had a lot of thoughts about the Fauci deposition, and his repeated use of the fifth amendment. (0:00) Helping or hurting? In Dumb Ass News, Chaz and AJ had audio of the aftermath of a truck accident in a parking lot. The man who came by to "help," did nothing to assist.

(16:12)  Just in time for Shark Week, the first hammerhead shark was tagged off the coast of Rhode Island by the Atlantic Shark Insitute. Jon Dodd was on with Chaz and AJ to talk about the historic moment, and offered to let them and the Tribe name the shark. (32:35)  When cliff-jumping goes wrong, everyone knows it immediately. Chaz and AJ had audio of a California kid incorrectly estimating the distance, and smashing his backside into the cliff face. (45:35) Photo courtesy: Atlantic Shark Institute

We continue our survey of the Roberts Court's oeuvre of constitutional cases, with particular emphasis on the series of cases that concerned making rules for voting and for voting districts.  These cases make particular use of “intratextualism” - a term coined by Professor Amar that provides tools - and traps - for textual analysis of the Constitution.  And as it turns out, it is also valuable on some of the most important themes and cases in the history of the nation, including Brown v. Board and its companion case, Bolling v. Sharpe.  A listener's question takes us down this road, which intersects with our own prior path in fascinating ways.  These and more cases are explored as only Professor Amar can.  CLE credit is available for lawyers and judges from podcast.njsba.com.
