    In this episode, we take an in-depth look at the Community Leadership Program (CLP) organized by the Top of Virginia Regional Chamber. This program is a testament to the power of community engagement and leadership development. Hosted by Janet Michael, this segment of the Valley Today brings to light the experiences of the current CLP class, soon to be graduates, and the invaluable lessons they've learned along the way. Janet is joined by Sabra Veach, the Director of Programs and Services at the Chamber, and Kearie Sites, the operations manager at Cardinal Technology Solutions and a member of the current CLP class. The conversation kicks off with Janet introducing Sabra and Kearie, noting Sabra's vital role in coordinating programs like the Community Leadership Program, and Kearie's enthusiastic participation in the program. Kearie jokes about her unofficial title as the CLP spokesperson due to her persistent curiosity and active involvement. Sabra explains that the CLP is designed to immerse participants in various community sectors, from local government to healthcare, education, and beyond. Each month, participants dive deep into a particular topic, engaging with top leaders like school superintendents, police chiefs, and CEOs. These sessions are not just lectures but interactive discussions that encourage participants to ask questions and gain firsthand insights into the community's operations. Kearie reflects on the transformative experience the program has provided. One particularly impactful session for her was the 'Simulated Society' day, a thought-provoking exercise that left a lasting impression. She keeps a keepsake from that day—a yellow bandana—wrapped around her car's gear shift as a reminder of the lessons learned. The program's structure, one Friday a month, allows participants to balance their professional responsibilities while fully engaging with the community. Sabra emphasizes the commitment required, noting that missing more than two sessions disqualifies a participant from graduating. The CLP isn't just about professional growth; it's also about personal development and fostering a sense of community. Kearie shares how the program helped her, a newcomer to the area, feel more connected and involved. She now sees familiar faces at networking events and has formed lasting relationships with her classmates. Janet and Kearie highlight how the program opens doors to knowledge and networking opportunities that participants might not have otherwise. From understanding local agriculture's economic importance to experiencing the weight of a firefighter's gear, the program offers a comprehensive view of the community. Sabra calls on alumni like Kearie to help promote the CLP to prospective participants. Applications for the next class open in June, with the program set to begin in September. Interested individuals can learn more and apply through the Top of Virginia Regional Chamber's website: https://www.regionalchamber.biz/leadership-academy/community-leadership-program/  Whether you're new to Winchester or a lifelong resident, the Community Leadership Program provides an unparalleled opportunity to become a more informed, engaged, and effective community leader.

The $36.5 million project will expand a 2.4-mile stretch from two to four lanes, add a multi-use sidepath, and improve intersections with Reduced Conflict U-Turns. Originally proposed in 1991, the project faced decades of delays due to funding and environmental concerns.

Local leaders praised GDOT’s support for this vital improvement. STORY 5: Army Corps Closes Recreational Areas Ahead of Memorial Day A federal staffing shortage has led to the closure of 31 recreational areas across Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi, including 20 sites at Lake Lanier, just before Memorial Day weekend. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers announced the closures, sparking political blame. Georgia Rep. Rich McCormick criticized the decision, while Senators Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff blamed cuts initiated under former President Trump. The closures stem from budget reductions tied to the Department of Government Efficiency, established by Trump and Elon Musk. Impacted areas include Lake Lanier, Allatoona Lake, and parts of the Apalachicola-Chattahoochee-Flint River system.

    In this episode, Dr. Samuel B. Lee, MD shares an extraordinary solo transmission following his life-changing pilgrimage to Egypt—a journey that activated deep cellular memory, spiritual resurrection, and ancient Atlantean wisdom. From secret Stargates beneath the Great Pyramid to the reawakening of Earth's crystalline grid, Dr. Lee unpacks the metaphysical technologies, multi-dimensional cities, and divine downloads he received across temples, tombs, and sarcophagi.Dr. Lee reveals how sacred Egyptian sites, once encoded by the original celestial human tribes, still hold potent 12D resurrection frequencies waiting to be unlocked. He explores the forgotten connection between Atlantis and Egypt, how our DNA was intentionally blank-slated by false creator gods, and why now—at this global inflection point—we must reclaim our multi-dimensional sovereignty.This powerful episode dives deep into gridwork, Stargate mechanics, the physics of ascension, the wounded inner child, and Source devotion—culminating in a breathtaking solo experience inside the King's Chamber that healed his final layer of the father wound and reignited pure childlike innocence.Sacred Truths & Lessons from This Episode:• You are a living Stargate—remember your codes.• The Great Pyramid is more than a tomb—it's a portal.• Your DNA holds the key to liberation from reincarnation.• Inner child healing is essential for higher ascension.• Resurrection is a frequency—"you must be reborn."• Gridwork is the highest service to Earth right now.

    In a recent episode of The Valley Today, host Janet Michael welcomed Gina Hilliard, President of the Luray/Page Chamber of Commerce, and special guest Crystel Smith, founder and CEO of Crystal Clear Business Strategies. As they gathered virtually on a particularly rainy Tuesday, the conversation flowed seamlessly, touching on key insights for business owners and unveiling exciting new initiatives. "When you're knee-deep in the middle of all this rain, what you want is crystal clear skies," Janet quipped, setting the stage for an enlightening discussion on business clarity. Crystel's venture, aptly named Crystel Clear Business Strategies, specializes in providing detailed, actionable business plans that go beyond standard consulting. Crystel emphasized the missing "how-to" in traditional business advice, making her unique approach invaluable. Crystel shared her journey from commercial lending to establishing her consultancy, revealing anecdotes from her interactions with small business owners driven by passion but lacking direction. She cited inspiring stories of resilience, like the business owner who sustained their non-profitable venture for nine years out of sheer dedication. Her approach involves understanding clients' personal and professional goals and crafting bespoke strategies to meet them. The session also showcased the educational aspect of her services. "It's not just about giving them the steps; it's about teaching them why those steps matter," Crystel explained. This focus on education ensures that business owners are equipped to think like entrepreneurs, fostering long-term growth and sustainability. Janet and Crystel delved into the importance of accountability and how having a business coach can significantly enhance performance. Crystel highlighted the power of clear, step-by-step plans and the role of an accountability partner in helping business owners stay on track and achieve their visions. Looking ahead, Crystel announced the launch of an innovative C-Suite program designed for high-level executives. This program aims to create a confidential, collaborative space where executives can solve complex business challenges together. The dual-level cohort model caters to companies up to $5 million in revenue and those exceeding $10 million, ensuring tailored support for different business stages. The discussion wrapped with a preview of Crystal's upcoming Lunch and Learn session hosted by the Luray/Page Chamber on June 26th, which promises to be an eye-opener for business owners. She will discuss seven key performance indicators crucial for driving profitability and share free resources, including guides and books.

Click here to try it out!Welcome back to Bad Dads Film Review, where this week we slither into our Top 5 Snakes in movies and TV, and shed our skins with two slinky features: the gritty 2023 Hong Kong action flick The Pig, the Snake and the Pigeon, and a far more family-friendly offering in Patchwork Pals.Top 5 Snakes in Film & TVKaa – The Jungle Book (1967/2016) Hypnotic eyes, silky voice, and a penchant for wrapping himself around unsuspecting jungle creatures—Kaa is the ultimate slithering villain. Whether voiced by Sterling Holloway or Scarlett Johansson, he leaves a lasting impression.Nagini – Harry Potter series Voldemort's devoted reptilian sidekick and eventual Horcrux, Nagini is both a terrifying presence and a tragic figure with a deeper backstory revealed in Fantastic Beasts.Snake Plissken – Escape from New York (1981) OK, not a literal snake—but Kurt Russell's eye-patched anti-hero is too iconic to leave off. He's venomous in attitude if not species.The Basilisk – Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002) A giant snake living in Hogwarts' plumbing system? Sure. Just don't look it in the eyes.Sir Hiss – Disney's Robin Hood (1973) This snooty, sycophantic serpent floats around in a basket and gets on everyone's nerves—just the sort of snake you love to hiss at.Main Feature: The Pig, the Snake and the Pigeon (2023)Directed by Wong Ching-po, this brutal neo-noir action thriller tells the story of Mok, a terminally ill gangster who finds out he has only days to live. With nothing left to lose, he sets out on a violent spree to go out in a blaze of infamy. But as his legend grows, so does the bounty on his head—and he becomes prey for a series of contract killers with styles as flamboyant as they are deadly.With its hyper-stylized violence, morally bankrupt characters, and pitch-black humour, this one is not for the faint of heart. It's a fever dream of bloodshed, masculinity, and fatalism, with moments that almost border on the surreal. The action choreography is tight, the visuals are stylish, and the tone walks a fine line between grindhouse and art film. There are snakes here—not just the metaphorical kind—and they're not easy to charm.Kids TV: Patchwork PalsIn need of something to balance out the darkness? Enter Patchwork Pals, the gentle animated show aimed at preschoolers. Each short episode centres on a different soft toy animal who has a problem—and must find a creative, cooperative solution. The snake in Patchwork Pals is a colourful, friendly creature who isn't scary at all—just a bit stuck and in need of help from their pals.Wholesome, sweet, and ideal for very young viewers, it's the kind of thing that soothes minds and teaches emotional intelligence, problem-solving, and kindness.Whether you're charmed or chilled, this week's show is full of bite.

You can also see it on YouTube.Devin: What is your superpower?Todd: I careWhat if a favorite drink could change the world? That's the ingenious idea behind Chef Todd Manley's Mutiny Island Vodka. By using breadfruit—a tropical superfood—as its primary ingredient, Mutiny Island Vodka addresses two pressing global challenges: poverty and climate change.Todd, a chef turned entrepreneur, explained how breadfruit transforms lives in tropical regions. “One breadfruit tree will feed a family of four for life,” he noted, emphasizing its nutritional and economic potential. In regions plagued by food insecurity and poverty, breadfruit provides not only sustenance but also economic opportunities. Farmers can grow breadfruit to feed their families, sell it locally, or export products like breadfruit flour. Mutiny Island Vodka incentivizes the planting of these trees, creating a sustainable cycle of economic growth and environmental restoration.Breadfruit's environmental benefits are equally impressive. Todd highlighted, “Breadfruit trees sequester hundreds of tons of carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere and they're long living.” Unlike annual crops like wheat or corn that require replanting, breadfruit trees thrive for decades, continuously bearing fruit while pulling carbon dioxide from the air.Mutiny Island Vodka, the world's first vodka made from breadfruit, is more than just a spirit—it's a movement. The company's partnerships with organizations like the Trees That Feed Foundation amplify its impact. For every bottle sold or investment made, a breadfruit tree is planted in a region that needs it most. This initiative not only addresses food security but also serves as a scalable climate solution.Todd and his team are currently raising funds through a regulation crowdfunding campaign on Start Engine. This capital will help expand production and distribution, bringing Mutiny Island Vodka to more people and creating even greater impact. Todd shared his ambitious vision: “We are set on becoming a household name...better cocktails, better planet.”Todd's innovative approach and commitment to making a difference demonstrate how business can be a force for good. Mutiny Island Vodka isn't just a drink—it's a tangible example of how ingenuity and purpose can tackle global challenges. Those interested in supporting this mission can explore the opportunity to invest and join the effort to fight poverty and save the planet, one sip at a time.tl;dr:Mutiny Island Vodka uses breadfruit to fight poverty and climate change while producing award-winning spirits.Breadfruit trees provide food security, economic opportunities, and carbon sequestration in tropical regions.Mutiny Island Vodka is raising funds via regulation crowdfunding to expand production and impact.Todd's superpower, caring, drives his work and fosters a network of trust and collaboration.During the pandemic, Mutiny produced hand sanitizer for frontline workers, showcasing care and ingenuity.How to Develop Caring As a SuperpowerTodd's superpower is his genuine care for others. He explained, “I think my number one superpower is I care.” This deep empathy fuels his work and draws like-minded people into his orbit, fostering a network of trust and collaboration. Todd elaborated, “When you find someone else that has that same superpower, you tend to really latch on to them...having that is just incredible.”Illustrative Story:During the pandemic, Todd noticed that the Virgin Islands had no hand sanitizer for hospitals, police, or frontline workers. Leveraging Mutiny Island Vodka's resources, his team began producing sanitizer using breadfruit-derived alcohol. This act of care not only met the community's critical needs but also helped sustain the business during a challenging time.Tips for Developing the Superpower:Practice listening actively by using “two ears and one mouth” to understand others better.Reframe negative thoughts or words into positive, solution-oriented language.Cultivate empathy by considering what others might be experiencing.Surround yourself with like-minded, caring individuals to foster collaboration and trust.By following Todd's example and advice, you can make caring a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileChef Todd Manley (he/him):CEO, Mutiny Island VodkaAbout Mutiny Island Vodka: Our company was founded to produce the World's first, Island Vodka, hand crafted with breadfruit, Mutiny Island Vodka. The business has grown to encompass a production distillery, restaurant, tourist attraction, event venue, and of course Mutiny Island Vodka as a brand on its own. Mutiny Island Vodka is being featured on the shelves and menus of some notable partners such as:  The Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino, Applebee's Franchisees, American Airlines Lounges, Virgin Voyages, and more.

He has largely been self-employed his entire life, loving the challenge of taking ideas out of thin air and turning them into tangible, profitable realizations. He is a graduate and former graduate school student of Virginia Commonwealth University.Since making the USVI his home, he has opened 5 successful businesses in a short four years, continually reinvesting in Christiansted and the USVI effectively helping pull up the town by reinvigorating interest in Christiansted during an economically gloomy period of time. In 2015, the community honored him through the Chamber of Commerce awarding him "Business Man of the Year.” The same year he received the U.S. Congressional Award for contributions to community and betterment of society for his achievements and helping the community of St. Croix. His commitment to better the global community through his work with breadfruit and the breadfruit community resulted in being honored at the Global Breadfruit Summit in Hawaii in both 2018 and 2022 for contributions to the community and innovation. Mutiny Island Vodka also received an endorsement from a charity, Trees That Feed Foundation for using breadfruit as a substrate incentivizing the planting of breadfruit trees.When he has free time, he can be found with his wife from Dominica, playing guitar, scuba diving, or on a beach!

To understand President Trump's position on Canada, you have to go back to the 2016 election and President Trump's position on the NAFTA renegotiation.  If you did not follow the subsequent USMCA process, this might be the ah-ha moment you need to understand Trump's strategy. During the 2016 election President Trump repeatedly said he wanted to renegotiate NAFTA, the North American Free Trade Agreement.  Both Canada and Mexico were reluctant to open the trade agreement to revision, but ultimately President Trump had the authority and support from an election victory to do exactly that. In order to understand the issue, you must remember President Trump, Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross and U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer each agreed the NAFTA agreement was fraught with problems and was best addressed by scrapping it and creating two seperate bilateral trade agreements. One between the USA and Mexico, and one between the USA and Canada. In the decades that preceded the 2017 push to redo the trade pact, Canada had restructured their economy to: (1) align with progressive climate change; and (2) take advantage of the NAFTA loophole.  The Canadian government did not want to reengage in a new trade agreement. Canada has deindustrialized much of their manufacturing base to support the ‘environmental' aspirations of their progressive politicians.  Instead, Canada became an importer of component goods where companies then assembled those imports into finished products to enter the U.S. market without tariffs.  Working with Chinese manufacturing companies, Canada exploited the NAFTA loophole. Justin Trudeau was strongly against renegotiating NAFTA, and stated he and Chrystia Freeland would not support reopening the trade agreement.  President Trump didn't care about the position of Canada and was going forward.  Trudeau said he would not support it.  Trump focused on the first bilateral trade agreement with Mexico. When the U.S. and Mexico had agreed to terms of the new trade deal and 80% of the agreement was finished, representatives from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce informed Trudeau that his position was weak and if the U.S. and Mexico inked their deal, Canada would be shut out. The key points to remember are: (1) Trump, Ross and Lighthizer would prefer two separate bilateral trade agreements because the U.S. import/export dynamic was entirely different between Mexico and Canada.

    In the late 1970s, Vietnam was one of the poorest countries in the world. Its economy had been destroyed by war with the USA, a trade embargo, and the communist government's restriction of private enterprise. So, at the Vietnam Communist Party's 6th National Congress in December 1986, radical economic reforms were introduced, known as Doi Moi, meaning ‘renovation'. The reforms transformed the country from a centrally planned economy to a market-oriented one, unleashing huge economic growth and improving living standards. Ben Henderson speaks to Phạm Chi Lan, an economist who worked at Vietnam's Chamber of Commerce and Industry through the period of reform.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.
