On today’s “Closer Look with Rose Scott,” we catch up with NPR Congressional Reporter and WABE alum Sam Gringlas. He’s currently following Democratic Incumbent Jon Ossoff and his effort to reclaim his U.S. Senate seat this November. Polling data currently has Ossoff leading his Republican opponent, Mike Collins, but there are still several miles on the campaign trail until the midterm election. Gringlas shares his firsthand look at how voters are reacting during Senator Ossoff’s campaign stops. Atlanta is widely known as the city in a forest, but that forest is depleting. Of the city’s more than 84,000 acres, almost 40,000 acres are covered by its tree canopy. However, that latest assessment by Georgia Tech shows Atlanta has lost a quarter of an acre of trees every day between 2008 and 2023. The city had a goal of reaching 50% canopy coverage, but Atlanta moved further away from that goal in the latest assessment, now dropping to 45.7% tree coverage. Officials from Trees Atlanta and Georgia Tech provide more details on the data, and what’s leading to the disappearing canopy. With the concern of mainstream AI systems disseminating misinformation, a new artificial intelligence platform is promising to provide accurate information. AiSHA pulls its information from Black History, culture, and trusted journalism sources to avoid biases.

His film tells the story of McGuinness Boulevard in Greenpoint, Brooklyn - one of New York's most dangerous streets, expanded under city planner Robert Moses in the 1950s into a highway-like, four-lane route cutting straight through a residential neighborhood. Over 70 years, an estimated 200 people died there. The turning point came in 2021 with the death of elementary school teacher Matthew Jensen, struck by a car on his own birthday - the spark for a three-year community movement that Ben followed with his camera. He shot almost the entire film alone, with gear that fits on a bike. He told me: "I wanted to test whether it's really possible to make a documentary without using a car at all." https://player.vimeo.com/video/1115240983? Kurze Werbung in eigener Sache: Vom 26. bis 29. September nehme ich wieder eine kleine Gruppe mit auf eine Learn&Travel-Delegation, diesmal nach Graubünden.

We talked about the political dysfunction behind the street redesign - Ben draws parallels to Robert Caro's book "The Power Broker" about Moses and says: " Corruption is almost a defining feature of politics in New York." He described to me how opponents of the redesign worked with false claims, for instance that narrower lanes would block emergency vehicles, and we put that in historical context: the transformative era of transportation planner Janette Sadik-Khan under Mayor Bloomberg, followed by years of purely reactive "band-aid politics" - up to today, where Ben sees new hope in New York's mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani. Again and again we came back to the core of his conviction: "Cars are anti-urban. They make public space unpleasant and destroy social interaction - they isolate you instead of bringing you together with others." And: only about 20 percent of residents along McGuinness Boulevard even own a car - reserving the street for them, he says, is "not a democratic solution." Despite all the accounts of political dysfunction, I ended the conversation feeling hopeful. Ben's central message, the one that stuck with me: if you can actually make a difference on a small, local problem, do exactly that "find something where you can actually make a real difference." His film "Changing Lanes" is currently available via Amazon and Canopy in the US, with European distribution in preparation. If you like this episode: Spread it and charge me a coffee
Summary To make way for double 30-foot, steel border walls in Lochiel, Arizona, federal contractors have clearcut a grove of three 200-year-old Fremont cottonwood trees that reached their boughs across the U.S.-Mexico border in a sign of connectivity, friendship, and anchoring the headwaters of the Santa Cruz River. On the heels of this destruction, grassroots […] Read full article: Episode 180: Activists Take to the Canopy to Defend Centuries-old Cottonwood, Cats, and Connectivity

Randy Crabtree sits down with Luke Frye, who's gone from hand-stamping journal entries as a small-town government accountant to scaling Bench to thousands of customers, running his own firm through a messy business divorce, and now advising practices at Canopy. Their conversation on Episode 280 of The Unique CPA keeps circling back to a single, uncomfortable question: What actually makes a firm valuable, as opposed to just busy? Luke argues that key man risk, not revenue, is the real threat to most practices, and that hourly billing quietly rewards inefficiency while punishing the AI tools meant to help. He pushes clients to charge what they're worth instead of discounting out of fear, and to build systems, like a real CRM, that let a firm run without its owner chained to it. Randy's own transition out of the company he built nineteen years ago and into advisory adds real-world weight to the discussion. It's a candid look at pricing, succession, and the mindset shifts firm owners tend to avoid until it's too late. Get the full show notes and more resources at TheUniqueCPA.com

Welcome to Day 2895 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2895 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 139:7-12 Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2895 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day two thousand eight hundred ninety-five of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. The title for today's Wisdom-Trek is: Shivering in the Omnipresence – No Hiding Places in Cosmic Geography In our previous expedition along this ancient, sacred trail, we stepped into the breathtaking opening movement of Psalm One Hundred Thirty-Nine, verses one through six. We explored the terrifying, yet deeply comforting reality of God's absolute omniscience. We learned that the Creator has meticulously mined the deepest shafts of our hearts, intimately tracking our sitting down, and our standing up. We marveled at how He has hemmed us in, constructing a protective, supernatural perimeter around our vulnerabilities, and resting His hand of covenant blessing firmly upon our heads. We experienced a beautiful sense of spiritual vertigo, realizing that the infinite intelligence of our King completely surpasses our human comprehension. Today, my friends, we take our next deliberate, awe-inspiring steps up the mountain pass. We are continuing our exploration of this magnificent psalm, focusing our attention on Psalm One Hundred Thirty-Nine, verses seven through twelve, in the New Living Translation. If the first six verses established that God knows everything about us, this next stanza reveals why that is a cosmic necessity. We are moving from the infinite depth of the divine mind, to the infinite width of the divine presence. David is going to take us on a rapid, macro-cosmic tour across the vertical and horizontal axes of reality, demonstrating that there is absolutely no hiding place in all of cosmic geography. Let us step onto the trail, and discover the beautiful impossibility of escaping the Sovereign King. The first segment is: The Vertical Axis: Piercing the Realms of Heaven and Sheol Let us listen to the opening lines of this cosmic pursuit, as recorded in verse seven and verse eight. I can never escape from your Spirit! I can never get away from your presence! If I go up to heaven, you are there; if I go down to the grave, you are there. In these grouped, contiguous thoughts, David confronts a reality that completely upends the ancient world's understanding of space and spiritual authority. He cries out, “I can never escape from your Spirit! I can never get away from your presence!” To fully grasp the radical, polemical nature of verse seven and verse eight, we must view them through the brilliant lens of the Ancient Israelite divine-council worldview. In the ancient Near East, the surrounding pagan nations operated under a strict system of cosmic geography. They believed that the spiritual realm was deeply fragmented, carved up into competitive, localized jurisdictions controlled by different, territorial elohim—the rebel sons of God who were assigned to the nations after the Tower of Babel. If you were in Egypt, you were under the eye of Ra and Osiris; if you crossed over into Canaan, you were in the domain of Baal and Asherah. Furthermore, these gods were vertically limited. Baal was the lord of the high skies, but he had no power in the underworld. Mot was the terrifying king of the grave, ruling the domain of death where the living gods could not interfere. The pagan world assumed that if you traveled far enough, or if you descended into the darkness of death, you could successfully escape the gaze of a specific national deity. But David stands as a theological revolutionary, and he completely demolishes this fragmented, pagan worldview. He looks at the vertical axis of the cosmos and declares, “If I go up to heaven, you are there; if I go down to the grave, you are there.” Think about the absolute totality of this claim. “Heaven”—the Shamayim—represented the supreme, radiant assembly room of the divine council, the very zenith of cosmic light and order. If David climbs to the highest spiritual heights, Yahweh is effortlessly enthroned there, presiding over the loyal heavenly host. But then David flips the map completely, looking into the pitch-black abyss of the “grave”—or Sheol, the underworld. In pagan thought, Sheol was a garbage dump of forgotten souls, a territory completely isolated from the gods of life. Yet David declares that if he makes his bed in the deep recesses of the underworld, he will open his eyes and find Yahweh standing right there next to him! There is no independent dark zone, and no demonic underworld, that can construct a legal barrier to lock the Creator out. Yahweh's jurisdiction is absolute, unmediated, and completely seamless from the highest celestial throne, to the deepest subterranean tomb. The rebel principalities of death have no private closets where they can hide from the King of Glory. The second segment is: The Horizontal Axis: Overruling the Farthest Horizons Having mapped the vertical dimensions of reality, the psalmist turns his attention to the horizontal limits of the earth, combining his logical thoughts in verse nine and verse ten. If I ride the wings of the morning, if I dwell by the farthest oceans, even there your hand will guide me, and your strength will support me. David paints a breathtaking, cinematic visual of rapid, long-distance transit across the globe: “If I ride the wings of the morning, if I dwell by the farthest oceans, even there your hand will guide me, and your strength will support me.” In the poetic vocabulary of ancient Israel, the “wings of the morning” referred to the first, blinding rays of the dawning sun, leaping up over the eastern horizon at the speed of light. Conversely, the “farthest oceans” referred to the western horizon, the deep, unpredictable, and highly dangerous waters of the Mediterranean Sea and whatever lay beyond. David is mapping out an extreme, east-to-west trajectory. He is saying, “What if I could capture a sunbeam in the east, fly across the entire planet in a fraction of a second, and drop myself down into the most remote, uncharted wilderness of the western sea?” In the ancient mind, traveling to the farthest oceans meant crossing the boundary lines into disinherited pagan lands, crossing into territories heavily fortified by the rebel spirits of the nations. It was the ultimate frontier of chaos. In Canaanite mythology, the deep sea was the personal playground of Yamm, the god of primordial chaos and liquid destruction. A traveler who ventured into the far oceans expected to find themselves completely abandoned, left to the cruel whims of foreign elements and hostile deities. But notice the beautiful, protective reality that intercepts David in verse ten: “even there your hand will guide me, and your strength will support me.” The phrase “even there” is a thunderous declaration of cosmic ownership. There are no blank spots on Yahweh's map. There are no international waters where His sovereignty doesn't apply. You can travel to the most distant, unchurched, and spiritually dark coordinate on the globe, and you will not find an empty space. Instead, you will find that the personal, loving hand of your Creator has already beaten you there! He doesn't just watch you from a celestial distance; His hand is actively present to guide your steps, and His raw, warrior strength is right beside you to support your weariness. The rebel principalities have no exclusive legal zones where they can isolate a child of God from the perimeter defense of the Almighty. The horizontal limits of the earth are merely a carpet unrolled beneath the feet of the King. The third segment is: The Spiritual Shroud: Dismantling the Canopy of Darkness The narrative moves from the physical limitations of space, to the psychological and spiritual attempt to find a hiding place under the shroud of darkness. The psalmist groups these contiguous thoughts in verse eleven and verse twelve. I could ask the darkness to hide me and the light around me to become night— but even in darkness I cannot hide from you. To you the night shines as bright as day. Darkness and light are the same to you. David explores a deeply human, and highly desperate temptation: “I could ask the darkness to hide me and the light around me to become night—but even in darkness I cannot hide from you. To you the night shines as bright as day. Darkness and light are the same to you.”...

Scaling New Heights Podcast: Cutting Edge Training For Small Business Advisors
On this episode of the Woodard Report podcast, Joe speaks with Jessica McKellar about her journey from studying computer science at MIT and building successful software startups to founding Pilot, a bookkeeping and accounting technology company. Jessica shares how Pilot evolved from solving the financial back-office challenges faced by entrepreneurs into a platform and explains how automation, AI, and value-based pricing are reshaping the economics of accounting firms. She also introduces Meridian, Pilot's new platform that enables autonomous bookkeeping, month-end close processes, and AI-assisted accounting workflows designed to help firms scale while improving both client and employee experiences. About Jessica McKellar Jessica McKellar is the co-founder and CEO of Pilot. She started the company with a simple conviction: small business owners shouldn't have to be their own bookkeeper, accountant, and financial advisor all at once. Today, Pilot serves more than 3,500 businesses, from neighborhood restaurants and retail shops to growing service businesses, helping owners get books off their plates so they can focus on what actually grows their company. Before Pilot, Jessica founded two other companies that were acquired by Oracle and Dropbox. She holds 3 degrees from MIT. Jessica also teaches programming at San Quentin State Prison and advocates for hiring formerly incarcerated people. She believes that excluding talented workers based on their records doesn't make business sense, and that second chances belong in the workplace too.

By the end of this episode, you'll be able to confidently name Bordeaux's key grape varieties and explain what each brings to a blend, describe the major appellations on both the Left Bank and Right Bank, understand how climate, vintage variation, and soil type influence wine style, and walk through the winemaking decisions -from vineyard to bottle - that define great Bordeaux. Whether you're revising for an exam or just want to sound impressively knowledgeable at your next dinner party, this one's for you.

Together they discuss the six critical criteria for responsible paper-based packaging, the innovation and collaboration needed to scale solutions, and why there's no silver bullet.

Eighteen months ago, the renovation of the railway station in Serbia's second biggest city, Novi Sad, led to a tragic accident. A substantial concrete canopy, which ran across the front of the station building, suddenly collapsed, killing sixteen people. The disaster sparked mass protests. Marchers demanded justice for the dead and injured. As the protests spread, to the capital, Belgrade, and to towns and cities across the country, the demands evolved. Protesters accused the government of corruption and of covering up the truth about what happened. The government accused the protesters of being foreign agents, supported and organised by malign outside forces. Now, after more than a year, the mass protests have finally subsided. Jill McGivering is in Serbia to find out what's happened to that explosion of anti-government anger.This episode of The Documentary comes to you from Assignment, investigations and journeys into the heart of global events.

1. Joseph Ellis, *The Cause: The American Revolution and Its Discontents, 1773 to 1783*. The term "the cause" was a verbal canopy used by colonists to unite diverse interest groups, ranging from New England radicals to Virginia slaveholders, against Britishpolicy. Originally called the "common cause," it represented the shared willingness of the colonies to support Massachusetts following the Coercive Acts. The movement evolved from a defense of rights into a revolutionary agenda for independence. Colonists argued the British constitution protected them from taxation without consent, viewing the end of "benign neglect" as a tyrannical plotto enslave them. Ultimately, "the cause" articulated the belief that government cannot strip citizens of rights without their permission. (1)15TH CENTURY MAP
