This week, we're examining a premier paper by a Haute Grade Academy graduate on the 29th degree and its exploration of the Masonic tenet of tolerance. What implications does this have in today's world? Additionally, we'll examine a fantastic piece that addresses the problem many of us have faced — what to do with all this Masonic merchandise?

The Lower Chesapeake Bay Fishing Report is your best resource for the Virginia Beach Fishing Report, Ocean View Fishing Report, Norfolk Fishing Report, Lynnhaven Inlet Fishing Report, and everywhere in between.For the anglers looking for an Eastern Shore Fishing Report, Hampton Fishing Report, Buckroe Beach Fishing Report, or York River Fishing Report, look no further. Every week we bring you a report for those anglers interested in a Cape Charles Fishing Report and a Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel Fishing Report and for every location in the Lower Chesapeake Bay. For our guys looking for the Virginia Fishing Report, we've got you covered.First this week, we catch up with Captain Robbie Bryan with Reel Release Sportfishing. Robbie shares an excellent flounder report, noting some of the best action he's seen in years with consistent fish in the 20–22 inch range and trophies pushing 30 inches. He also talks opening day cobia, tough sight-fishing conditions, and how salinity changes pushed fish deeper. Robbie dives into conservation tips, why patience is key when setting the hook on flounder, and how anglers can help sustain the cobia fishery by being selective in harvest. Next, we hear from Captain Colt North with Litigator Sportfishing. Colt kicks things off with a fun recap from North Carolina, where he and his crew enjoyed red-hot yellowfin tuna action, boating fish up to 70 pounds on ballyhoo/sea witch rigs. Back in the Bay, he reports strong flounder fishing with limits coming off bucktail/Gulp rigs around wrecks and pilings, along with the arrival of spadefish and sheepshead. He also gives an update on cobia, which are present but not quite fired up yet due to fluctuating temps. Colt highlights his summer Litigator Kids Camps, offering ages 8–16 the chance to learn hands-on techniques across cobia, drum, reef, and inshore fishing. Sponsors:Long Bay Pointe Bait and Tackle Shoreline PlasticsGreat Days OutdoorsKillerDockHilton's Realtime-NavigatorAFTCOSalts Gone Fish Bites Sea TowBlack BuffaloStayput Anchor

As our regular podcast listeners know, we ordinarily release a new regular podcast show once each week on Thursday. On a very few occasions, we have released a special extra podcast show during the same week. We have only done that when a development occurs which we feel is of extraordinary importance and time sensitive. On September 22, the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit issued its unanimous opinion in Conti v. Citizens Bank, N.A. in which it held, in the context of a motion to dismiss a putative class action alleging that the Bank failed to pay interest on mortgage escrow accounts in violation of a Rhode Island statute which requires the payment of interest on mortgage escrow accounts, that the National Bank Act does not preempt the Rhode Island statute. The Bank had argued that the National Bank Act preempts the Rhode Island statute and that, as such, it was not required to pay any interest on mortgage escrow accounts. The District Court had also held that such Rhode Island statute was preempted. See our recently published blog about The First Circuit Opinion in Conti.  While the Conti case involves the narrow question described above, the implications of the opinion are sweeping in nature and will require national banks to comply with a vast litany of state consumer protection laws throughout the country which may no longer be preempted by the National Bank Act. Since 2004, the OCC has had a regulation which expressly purports to preempt state statutes, like the Rhode Island statute, which requires the payment of interest on mortgage escrow accounts That same regulation purports to preempt most categories of other state consumer protection laws. Most national banks have been reasonably relying on the OCC preemption regulations and have not complied with most state consumer protection laws. The Conti opinion implicitly concludes that the OCC preemption regulations are invalid.   During our podcast show, we explain the history of the Conti case and the holding and reasoning of the First Circuit. We also discuss the Cantero opinion in the Supreme Court which led to the First Circuit opinion and similar cases in the Second and Ninth Circuits dealing with the same preemption issues. Most importantly, we will explain how we are helping national banks comply with state laws that are probably not preempted by the National Bank Act. Alan Kaplinsky, the founder and practice leader of the Consumer Financial Services Group, hosted the webinar. He was joined by Joseph Schuster and Ron Vaske, partners in the Group who focus their practices in part on National Bank Act Preemption.

Randy Crosson is the Executive Director of Freedoms Advocate, a registered charity that funds constitutional and human rights litigation across Canada to defend faith, family, and fundamental freedoms. Tim Haggstrom is a Canadian lawyer who currently serves as the National Director of the Runnymede Society, a non-partisan organization focused on promoting classical liberal principles in law and policy. In 2022, as a final-year law student, Haggstrom faced university sanctions for an open letter encouraging dialogue on race, racism, and affirmative action policies (e.g., extra exam time accommodations), which some peers labeled as "hate speech" and "harassment." The University of Saskatchewan deemed it non-academic misconduct, requiring a public apology and statement of regret. Supported by Freedoms Advocate, he sued in 2025, seeking to quash the ruling and challenge university policies for lacking procedural fairness and infringing Charter rights.To watch the Full Cornerstone Forum: https://open.substack.com/pub/shaunnewmanpodcastGet your voice heard: Text Shaun 587-217-8500Silver Gold Bull Links:Website: https://silvergoldbull.ca/Email: SNP@silvergoldbull.comText Grahame: (587) 441-9100Bow Valley Credit UnionBitcoin: www.bowvalleycu.com/en/personal/investing-wealth/bitcoin-gatewayEmail: welcome@BowValleycu.com Use the code “SNP” on all ordersProphet River Links:Website: store.prophetriver.com/Email: SNP@prophetriver.comExpat Money SummitWebsite: ExpatMoneySummit.com

One week after the iconic Neil de Beer was laid to rest, BizNews Founder Alec Hogg joins Chris Steyn on the aptly named NdB Sunday Show to announce that Neil's dream of a Liberty Conference will come true on 9 March 2026. The conference that Neil and Alec had already been planning will coincide with the big BNC Eight Conference. On the agenda will be talks and brainstorming on economic liberty, freedom of expression, the rule of law, and sovereignty versus overreach by the State. This will culminate in a group of people being charged to produce the Neil De Beer Freedom Charter. “…we are…going to be guided by Neil's spirit. And I do believe that he was spot on. This was probably the most passionate thing in his life… freedom, the freedom of South Africa and the freedom that so many people had sacrificed so much for, which is now under threat,”says Hogg.

Governor Beshear says we need to think about the political atmosphere in America today after fatal shooting of conservative activist Charlie, the Kentucky Supreme Court hears arguments that will help them decide the fate of charter schools in the state, and farmers and scientists from around the world attending 5th International Pawpaw conference at Kentucky State University. 

At the end of each week, Mike Hosking takes you through the big-ticket items and lets you know what he makes of it all. The cathedral: 7/10 If I wasn't from Christchurch, I doubt I'd be gripped, but that thing is in such desperate need of being sorted so a new plan is most welcome. The by-election: 3/10 A bust on every level, but mostly for the lack of interest in basic democracy. Charter schools: 7/10 The first public, publicly declared school having a look at the option. The idea might have come of age. Compulsory KiwiSaver: 6/10 Between Peters and several new reports, it's building a head of steam as an idea. The ideas time might have come. Takuta Ferris: 1/10 Idiot. The Warriors: 8/10 Webster was right yesterday: it is a new season now. We are 6th and 6th is good, 6th is alive, and 6th is a ticket to the big dance. Let's dance!

My uplifting story of the week involves charter schools. Charter schools are the little idea that could. Or maybe they are the big game-changing idea that could. We heard this week of the first public school wanting to explore the charter route. It's in Northland and it's being driven by the realisation that what they currently do doesn't work for their kids. And that is the genesis of the charter school thinking. Remember, charter schools go back to a previous Government, before Labour took to them in 2017. So this isn't new. But the basic premise was one size does not fit all and a lot of kids may well benefit from different styles and approaches to learning. I have been a fan from day one. Not because charter schools are magic bullets, but rather the simple premise that what we have demonstrably doesn't work for everyone. You can't hide from the facts and the truth and our pass rates, our success rates, are shocking. The unions simply bleat for more resource. Even if it is a partial answer, it isn't close to being the whole answer and their myopic view that there can only be one way is a very large part of the overall handbrake that has prevented real change and advancement. The Northland school, I thought, gave excellent insight. They have good people, they work hard, but they are simply not getting the cut through, so they need to try something different. They didn't used to be “for” charter schools, but just their ability to accept change needs to be admired and encouraged. Chris Hipkins as Education Minister in 2017 killed them. Not because they weren't working, but because he is beholden to the unions and there was no way they were ever going to get a chance to prove them wrong. So what we have seen this time round is no shortage of demand for schools. In fact, more schools are demanding it than there is money allocated. We see the first public school, or at least the first public school prepared to admit they want to look at change, which leads surely to a growing sense charter schools might at last have their time. Some may well turn out to be brilliant, lives may well get changed and the recognition of a decent idea may well be widely accepted. It seems the momentum is on.

Bryan Furze is buzzing with insights. In this episode of Retail Retold, Chris Ressa and Bryan, Senior Vice President at Charter Realty, talk about his bold move from landlord to broker after 25 years in retail real estate. Brian shares how his career has taken him from leading portfolios at major landlords to now building Charter's Northern New England business, giving him a unique perspective on both sides of the deal. Together, Chris and Brian break down why retail real estate isn't oversupplied but rather “under demolished,” how construction costs are reshaping small-shop leasing, and why secondary markets like New Hampshire and Maine are becoming hotbeds of growth. Brian also tells the story of a high-stakes Boston acquisition that tested his team but ultimately transformed a neighborhood. Plus, the conversation touches on sustainability, pollinator-friendly practices, and the personal side of balancing career, family, and passion projects.

Her commitment to personalized education led her to co-found a commonwealth school, develop curriculum, and co-author the book The Learning Zone. She has spoken at major homeschool conventions and serves as director of operations at the Leadership Education Mentoring Institute (LEMI). Heidi also founded The Genius Paradigm and Realizing Genius.FacebookInstagramYouTubeShow Notes: Discovering the Genius in Every Child: A Leadership Education Approach to Mentoring Youth Through HomeschoolingMeet Heidi ChristiansenHey, everyone! I'm Kerry Beck, with homeschool coffee break where we help you stop the overwhelm so you can actually take a coffee break. Today we are talking about a topic that I know y'all have heard me talk about a lot - leadership education. Heidi Christiansen from LEMI is here, and we're going to dive right into it.Heidi has 5 boys who are all grown now. Her youngest one graduated last year, and she homeschooled them for 23 years. Before kids, she actually taught at the university and at the community college level.She knew she wanted to teach, but never thought she would teach kids because she did not have a good experience in public school. When she went to enroll her oldest, she just couldn't do it. At that point she had toddler twins and a newborn, so she put him into a private school. But with that many kids already, there was no way she could continue.The Turning Point: When Traditional Methods Don't WorkKerry: So when our twins were ready for kindergarten, we jumped into homeschooling, and even though I had such a horrible time in the public school system, I found myself falling into that track and those habits. I was - I wanted my kids to love learning, but because I was, you know, especially with my experience in education I still was following, falling into those bad habits.Heidi: My 4th son, I like to say he's not my problem child, but he's the child that made me a better mother, and because of that he just fought me on the traditional education, and I knew that I was the one that had to change. You can't ask your kids to change in that way. They're kids.So I started doing research. That's when I found leadership education and I just loved it. One of the things they talked about in a foundational book, the Thomas Jefferson Education, by Oliver Demille, is how everyone is a genius. I just love that idea.What Leadership Education Really MeansKerry: When we're talking about leadership education, tell us what that is, and what that would really mean for a family, and how it's more than just a curriculum or a checklist.Heidi: It definitely is not a curriculum or a checklist. One of the important things I feel it's just so important for people to understand is that idea of what leadership is, because too often - I know my oldest son, he was about 12-13 years old when we started in leadership education, and I was all excited about it. I was trying to share it with him and he just started crying and saying, "Mommy, I don't want to be President."Leadership education is not about titles or positions. True leadership emerges when someone learns to navigate challenges thoughtfully, see patterns in human behavior and systems and guide others towards positive change. It's about developing the capacity to make a meaningful difference whether in your family, community or the broader world.Kerry: So good. I really appreciate you reminding people that not everyone's gonna grow up to be President of the United States or CEO, or even on the church elder board or something. But just like you said, moms are leaders and dads are leaders. I would say, 99% of the kids of the moms listening to this are going to grow up and be a mom and a dad. And they need to know how to lead well.Shifting from Teacher to Mentor MindsetKerry: If we're talking about leadership education, how would someone shift their thinking in the way that they would homeschool, or in the way that they would parent, because, like we said, it's not a curriculum. It's not a checklist. How do they shift, and what kinds of things might they start doing?Heidi: One of the biggest shifts is how we see - what our goals are, because too often I know as a credential teacher, and one of the reasons I stopped working for the Charter schools is that as a teacher we are looking at checking off those boxes and all of those standards. As a mentor, which is something that we look at differently, a mentor looks at the child, the student and sees where they are, where they need to go, and then helps them get there.We're looking at where do they need to go? And for every single child that will be different, for every single person it's slightly different. Yes, they need to read. Yes, they need to be able to do math. But some kids need to do statistics and calculus and all of that, and some kids don't. And that's okay.Instead of looking at okay, what does my 5th grader need to know, it's more of where do I want my child to be when they are 40. What do we want them to be doing when they're 40? We want them to be living their genius, sharing their genius with the world. We want them to be reading books and discussing them. We want them to be writing effectively and persuasively and challenging ideas.Real-Life Examples of Mentoring YouthHeidi: My youngest son is much younger. There's like 7 and a half year difference, and I was just tearing my hair out. How am I going to get him to read? My 4 older sons loved fantasy and science fiction, and my 5th son, I'm like, "Okay, why isn't he fitting into the mold?" This is after so many years of doing this, but I still - it was so easy to try and just force him into that box that his older brothers had built.He read a little bit later, but once I figured out what he liked to read, oh my gosh! He took off. We were driving to our homeschool community, and I would listen to books in the car. He started out with his earphones on listening to his own stuff. Then it's like, "Okay, take one off. What is she saying?" Then it's like no earphones, and then stopping the thing. "It's Mom, let's talk about this."That's how I figured out what he liked to read. He loves psychology, economics. It's just amazing what he will read, but it had to be individualized for him.Kerry: You know that sounds like my son - he's our youngest, and he knew how to read but he wasn't interested in it. As long as it had water in it, like Robinson Crusoe or Swiss Family Robinson, I don't know why he would be interested. He's 32 now, and he loves to read. Give your kids grace and patience. Give them time, and give yourself grace and patience, because sometimes it takes some time to figure out for each child what is best for them.Practical Mentoring in ActionHeidi: For my youngest son, once he got to that hard age of 17 where it's like, "Oh no, I'm going to be an adult, and I don't quite know how to do it" - as a mentor, I could see that one of his things that he was very concerned about is how would he literally survive on his own.One of the things I did actually made my life a win-win. I gave him a couple hundred dollars and said, "Okay, you're in charge of 3 dinners a week for the month. Here's $200. I keep the basics stocked. If you need anything else, you need to use that $200. Anything left over is yours."He got really creative. It was not only a way of him figuring out how to use what we had, it was a way for him to put some money in his pocket, but he also had to learn to go out and budget and figure out recipes. My husband and I have never eaten better. He feels so much better because he knows he can go and live on his own when the time is right.One Simple Step to Get StartedKerry: So let's say we have a mom here, and she's hearing this, and she's excited but she's also overwhelmed. What's like one simple step that she could take to just begin leadership education in her home?Heidi: The best thing I would say is the first step would be understanding that you are an example to your kids. In order to help you connect your students' heart and mind and purpose, showing them you doing that is the best thing to do. So they need to see you reading. They need to see you writing, or at least hear about it.I would highly recommend starting like a journaling routine for yourself. Every week I will write down my gains - everything that has happened, all of the positive things that have happened for the week. Too often, as homeschool moms, we have these elaborate plans that we're going to do, and then something better comes along. Then you look at your list of goals for the last week, and it's like, "Oh, I didn't do anything." That's the gap you're looking at.Instead, look at the gains. What have your kids learned? Sometimes for me, when my kids were little, at night I would think, "What went well? What worked? What did they learn?" Sometimes it was just "Well, that mommy can say she's sorry, and it's okay. Grownups can apologize." That's an important thing to learn.Being that example for your kids is just so important. Be that adult that you want them to be.Kerry: That's so good. And it covers so many areas of our whole life. You need to start with you. You don't need to go, "Oh, here's leadership education. I'm gonna make my kids do all of this" because you've got to change. It's got to be internal for you before you can share it. You may spend several months just working on you and becoming maybe a better reader, or a better writer, or have better character in your life.The Genius ParadigmHeidi: I would love to encourage people to take the time. Stop and see the genius in your kids. I call it a genius paradigm. It's not just your kids. It's your spouse, your friends, the people you work with. Having that genius paradigm just really can change the world, because you can see how one person - it might not be the right spot for somebody to do something, but they are a genius at something else, and you can give them grace.That's what leadership education is all about - seeing that amazing qualities in everybody, and having the grace to let them shine in their own path.Ready to start mentoring youth in your homeschool with a leadership education approach?Connect with Heidi and learn more about Leadership Education Mentoring Institute:Website: LEMI-u.com (includes a free online course)Email: Heidi@LEMIHomeschool.comFacebook and YouTube channels availableWant more homeschool encouragement and practical tips?

Courage is Contagious: Voices Uniting Against Human Trafficking Synopsis: Teresa Velardi sits down with author Andi Buerger and contributing authors Lisa Babbage, Chris Meek, and Eric Caron to discuss the powerful new book, Voices Against Trafficking: Courage is Contagious – Uniting Voices and Nations in the War Against Human Slavery. At a time when true heroes can seem scarce, Voices Against Trafficking brings together extraordinary accounts from ordinary people who refused to look away in the face of injustice. These first-hand narratives spotlight individuals who saw something, said something, and took action—changing the course of lives forever. The stories remind us that the courage of a single person can create ripples of hope that reach across communities and even nations. Andi Buerger, a survivor of brutal child sex trafficking, shares her journey from victim to internationally recognized advocate who has rescued hundreds of at-risk teens through her nonprofit work. Lisa Babbage brings her expertise as an educator, nonprofit leader, and survivor of abuse, working to restore dignity to women and children. Chris Meek, co-founder of SoldierStrong, combines lessons on leadership, resilience, and humanitarian service from decades of working with U.S. veterans and global causes. Eric Caron, a decorated former U.S. Special Agent, offers a law enforcement and national security perspective on dismantling trafficking networks and rescuing victims. Together, they discuss the harsh realities of human trafficking, the systemic challenges in combating it, and the urgent need to unite voices from all walks of life in this fight. This compelling conversation will challenge listeners to confront the uncomfortable truth about modern-day slavery—and inspire them to believe that courage truly is contagious. Guests Andi Burger: Andi Buerger, JD is an international speaker, author, and advocate for victims of human trafficking & exploitation.  Andi herself was a victim of child sex trafficking and unspeakable abuses by family members for 17 years.She founded Beulah's Place, which provided temporary shelter services to at-risk unsheltered teens for 14 years.  300+ youth were successfully rescued and assisted earning national recognition. Andi later founded Voices Against Trafficking(VAT) to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves — the voiceless victims of human trafficking and exploitation. VAT advocates for the protection of every human's rights regardless of race, gender, culture, or socio-economic status.  Voices Against Trafficking-The Strength of Many Voices Speaking As One, gives a portion of proceeds from each sale to survivors of child abuse and trafficking, as does Andi's first book,  A Fragile Thread of Hope - One Survivor's Quest to Rescue. Andi launched Voices Of Courage magazine in 2023.  It is distributed internationally and accepted into the U.S. Library of Congress. It honors everyday heroes who selflessly fight to protect human rights. These champions come from all walks of life to change communities and the world for the better. A television series by the same title debuts in 2025.

He holds a BA in economics and political science from Syracuse University, an MBA in financial management from Pace University in New York City, and an MPA from the Maxwell School at Syracuse University. He is a doctoral candidate in organizational change and leadership at the University of Southern California. Meek serves as adjunct professor at the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs at Syracuse University, where he teaches graduate and undergraduate courses on nonprofit management and board governance. He shares his experiences and discusses resiliency, empowerment, and leadership through adversity on his weekly podcast, “Next Steps Forward with Chris Meek,” via the VoiceAmerica network's Empowerment Channel. Next Steps Forward is his first book.  Lisa Babbage: For the past decade, Lisa Babbage has been involved with a variety of causes all aimed at restoring women and children through education & needs-based support, and workforce development.

Since working through her personal trauma, Lisa went on to receive a doctorate in Public Policy and Nonprofit Leadership and is recently received her second Masters, this time in STEM Education. After twenty years of educating Georgia's children as a K-12 educator and TEACH Gwinnett Supervisor, and over ten years in the mission field of Atlanta, Lisa says her work has only just begun.

The Charter kicks off the season as Ruthie Polinsky and Clay Harbor break down Week 1 for the Chicago Bears. They start with Thursday night's opener before diving into the Bears-Vikings matchup: how Chicago's offensive line holds up against a disruptive front, why cadence can be a weapon against disguised looks, and what the defense must do to slow down Minnesota's run game and a first-time starter at quarterback. They also hit on a few key injury concerns and share why manageable downs will decide the night.

Join us this week for an exploration into the philosophy of Masonry and how it aligned with ancient and modern labor unions! The connection is undeniable. We have a new message from Henry C. Clausen, reading from 1979, about emphasizing the good in the world and the power it has over the negative. Then, we delve into the sad story of Brother Oliver Jones, who froze to death in 1909.

On July 14, 2023, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops' (USCCB) Secretariat of Child and Youth Protection released the 2022 Annual Report – Findings and Recommendations on the Implementation of the Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People. This is the twentieth such report since 2002 when the U.S. bishops established and adopted the Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People, a comprehensive framework of procedures to address allegations of sexual abuse of minors by Catholic clergy and establish protocols to protect children and young people. The international World Youth Day celebration takes place every 2-3 years, typically in the summer months and on a major scale. The next one of these will take place soon, from Tuesday to Sunday, August 1 to 6, 2023, in Lisbon, Portugal with millions of people and the Holy Father. The U.S. Bishops invite all young people across the United States to be a part of this global event - in person, digitally, or stateside.

Matt Alexander, a former teacher in Ontario, Canada, was employed by the Renfrew County District School Board (RCDSB) for over 20 years, teaching grades 7 and 8. In 2023, he was suspended and later terminated, allegedly for not supporting or celebrating LGBTQ+ initiatives, despite having no public social media presence and an unblemished disciplinary record. His troubles began after his son, Josh Alexander, publicly opposed his school's policy on transgender students using girls' washrooms. Matt, a devout Christian, pastor, and army reserve veteran, faced financial devastation, including the loss of his family home and pension, forcing him to retrain for a new career. He and his wife, Nicole Alexander, also a teacher who faced similar consequences, have filed a human rights complaint against the RCDSB for religious discrimination and a labor complaint against their union for failing to defend their Charter-protected freedoms.To watch the Full Cornerstone Forum: https://open.substack.com/pub/shaunnewmanpodcastGet your voice heard: Text Shaun 587-217-8500Silver Gold Bull Links:Website: https://silvergoldbull.ca/Email: SNP@silvergoldbull.comText Grahame: (587) 441-9100Bow Valley Credit UnionBitcoin: www.bowvalleycu.com/en/personal/investing-wealth/bitcoin-gatewayEmail: welcome@BowValleycu.com Use the code “SNP” on all ordersProphet River Links:Website: store.prophetriver.com/Email: SNP@prophetriver.comExpat Money SummitWebsite: ExpatMoneySummit.com
