In this special edition, we're joined by Jon Gedling, Director of Estates for the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, to discuss the challenges and responsibilities involved in caring for First World War cemeteries in Belgium and France. We explore the history behind making these cemeteries permanent after the Great War, how maintenance practices have evolved, and the background to the so-called “black spot” issue. Jon explains what recent investigations have revealed, how the CWGC is addressing the problem, what the future might hold, and how visitors to the Western Front battlefields can support the Commission's work.If you want to report an issue in a cemetery you have visited you can contact the CWGC.Sign up for the free podcast newsletter here: Old Front Line Bulletin.You can order Old Front Line Merch via The Old Front Line Shop.Got a question about this episode or any others?

What if the most powerful climate solution isn't in some distant technology — but growing right above your head?In this episode of the Lean to the Left Podcast, host Bob Gatty sits down with Joshua Harrison, co-founder and chief strategy officer of Leaf Island, to explore how green roofs and nature-based design can radically reshape the way we live in cities.With more than 80% of Americans living in urban areas, rising heat, pollution, and climate vulnerability are intensifying. But Harrison explains how integrating nature into our built environment — from rooftops to walls — can cool cities, absorb carbon, reduce energy costs, and create healthier spaces for everyone.
River Action works to make greener cities by providing events and spaces for exercise, improving people's mental health, helping children as they develop, and reducing exposure to pollution and extreme heat

Before he departed from Calstega Bay, the man named Onyx, Commodore of the Valte Empire and member of the mysterious group known as the Luminaries, gave the crew of the Little Snail some words of advice: Take a boat east, to Spillaway Peaks, and find an ally there under the Shining Star. Thus do Veile, Elena, Nicky, and Jonathan head towards the shoreline, towards new adventures—and for one of them, old haunts. You may not know Spillaway Peaks. Indeed, places like that are too easily overlooked. Many would tell you a history of Tidaline, Perpetua's Western Continent, focused only on its greatest kingdom, its most powerful church, and the invading armada that scourges its shores. And while Grand Sonnerie, the Holy Protectorate, and the Valte Empire have tried as hard as they can to control the chronicling of time, take it from this old historian: The smallest gust can usher in a hurricane. So learn these names: Belowave. Geseis. Nezt. Invernal. Salann. Burgton. Stitchscore. Spillaway Peaks. Cities hidden under the waves or behind the hills. Places which turned away warships with simple ribbons, or confounded pillagers with puzzles. One village of games, one village of spies, one village where soldiers refused to be soldiers anymore. Call them parochial or call them provincial if you must, but understand this. Perpetua is not the territory of territory alone. It is not a battlefield made by battalions. It is a world where heroes move history, and where heroes have homes. Some such heroes, if they are lucky, may even get to return to them one day. This week on Perpetua: This week on Pepetua: Across the Bay Pt. 1 Perpetua Guide [In Progress v.05] NPCs & Monsters [PNMS] Hydrazoa [NMHDZ] Typical Traits: floating, glowing, silent, transparent Stats: DEX 8, INS 8, MIG 10, WLP 6 Attacks: Acid Touch, Stinging Tentacles Special Abilities: Flying In-Game Description: Every slithering tentacle of these bizarre, floating jellyfish monsters is filled with a powerful neurotoxin. As far as I can tell, the only way to encounter these guys is by generating an ambush on the shoreline or in the sea. And something is really FISHY about these jellyfish, too. They have original art, but it's almost like they're ripped directly from a different game in terms of their moves and stats and even their description! Maybe they're a holdover from the original Fabula Ultima game engine? Starter Tip: Even though they do bolt damage with those tentacles, they're also weak to bolt! They might sting you, but sting 'em right back. Living Seaweed [NMLSW] Typical Traits: aggressive, cursed, quick, tangly Stats: DEX 10, INS 8, MIG 8, WLP 6 Attacks: Corrupting Grasp, Dark Sting Special Abilities: Plant In-Game Description: A tangle of ravenous kelp. I don't really get this thing. It's like some seaweed that wants to choke you? Why. It doesn't have teeth. It doesn't have a mouth. It doesn't have a stomach. Seaweeds don't need to kill to survive. So why is this one trying to munch on the party!Starter Tip: Don't even bother to give them dazed, enraged, or shaken. They're immune!

"As I was browsing the Cities and Memory sound library, I had an LFO patch quietly looping in the background. When the field recording Lonely Beach surfaced, it fell into place with the glitchy texture I was shaping, just like the sound of ropes creaking on a sailing boat at night! "From that accidental pairing, the track began to write itself. I took those two elements and let them drift together, along with scattered sounds of the twinkly stars, eventually becoming this warm, sleepy piece."

"Cities across the globe have experienced urban blight, where districts that have seen a significant downturn in fortunes are abandoned, residential and business properties left vacant. Responding to this change in fortunes is becoming an industry in itself."What Causes Urban Blight -And What Can Be Done About it" ~ February 2023 blog.bluebeam.comMy Guest This Week Has Success in helping Real Estate Properties & Communities RevitalizeBlighted is a powerful narrative about the decades-long decay and remarkable two-year reinvention of Summerdale, an aging apartment community located in one of Atlanta's grittiest corridors. From burnt-out, mold-infested buildings to traumatized classrooms, Blighted unfolds in the voices of ruthless drug dealers, phantom tenants, fearless landlords, the working poor, educators, and visionary local leaders.After purchasing the property from an absentee overseas owner, Marjy Stagmeier and her partners methodically tackled the crisis festering inside the gated 244-unit apartment property. Two years of relentless work later, Stagmeier reveals how the team that she led built community from chaos. Through on-the-ground, in-the-moment interviews with a wide range of stakeholders, Stagmeier demonstrates how marginalized housing perpetuates intergenerational poverty and the collapse of nearby public schools while showing the multifaceted challenges of improving dire living conditions.Blighted offers a unique insider perspective of the political, human, and economic challenges of delivering equitable housing in a market fueled by inflationary prices, insatiable demand, and competing and often dubious agendas. Summerdale's success is a bright model of how affordable housing, education, healthcare, and social capital can interconnect to build vibrant, sustainable communities―affordable housing communities, nearby schools, and the community at large. From there, kids, families, working people, and neighborhoods can thrive.© 2025 Building Abundant Success!!2025 All Rights ReservedJoin Me on ~ iHeart Radio @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASSpot Me on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/yxuy23baAmazon Music ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBASAudacy: https://tinyurl.com/BASAud

UnHerd's Freddie Sayers talks with writer and philosopher Matthew Crawford about the creeping tyranny of the "Smart City"—a vision of the future where urban life is optimised by data, and human unpredictability is treated as a "bug" to be fixed. But what is the spiritual cost of a "frictionless" existence? As tech giants begin to govern like nation-states and cars become subscription services that can be throttled from afar, Crawford asks the question: are we building paradise, or a "glorious, collisionless" prison? From the defiance of skateboarders to the ULEZ "Blade Runners" destroying cameras in London, they discuss the fight to reclaim the "unruly felicities" of a life truly worth living. Hosted on Acast.

This week on Better Buildings for Humans, host Joe Menchefski connects with Georg Molzer, Austrian tech visionary and creator of Shadowmap—a groundbreaking platform that's redefining our relationship with sunlight. From early engineering dreams to burnout recovery and a brilliant balcony epiphany, Georg shares how a dark Viennese winter inspired him to illuminate how we understand solar exposure in cities, homes, and beyond. In this episode, Georg and Joe explore how Shadowmap's intuitive 4D visualization tool is empowering architects, real estate developers, and everyday users to design healthier, more sun-filled environments. They dig into the rising global awareness of sunlight's impact on health and productivity, and how data-rich simulations can prevent costly design mistakes. Whether you're an architect, planner, or sunlight enthusiast, this conversation will make you think differently about how—and where—we build.More About Georg MolzerAt the age of 16, while still attending high school, Georg Molzer had his first job as a programmer and designer for a Viennese health startup. Four years later, while studying visual computing at TU Wien, he founded his first consulting company. In 2015, he became co-founder and CTO of kiweno, an Austrian health tech startup, where he gained important entrepreneurial experience and went through the typical (and perhaps also less typical) founder's journey.His subsequent burnout and his love of the sun led him to follow his heart and work on an idea he had had six years earlier during a dark Viennese winter: an app that reconnects people with the sun: Shadowmap. Georg is convinced that the sensible use of solar energy – and the power of the sun in general – would solve many global problems in no time: better architecture, more livable living space, healthier and happier lives, higher, sustainable energy yields. Putting humanity first. His passion for the topic has turned Shadowmap into a globally leading product within a few years, which is used by hundreds of thousand people worldwide every month and is now also integrated into large real estate portals, reaching more humans than ever before.Contact:https://www.linkedin.com/in/molzer https://www.x.com/georgmolzer https://www.linkedin.com/company/shadowmap/https://www.instagram.com/shadowmap_org https://www.x.com/shadowmap_org Where To Find Us:https://bbfhpod.advancedglazings.com/www.advancedglazings.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/better-buildings-for-humans-podcastwww.linkedin.com/in/advanced-glazings-ltd-848b4625https://twitter.com/bbfhpodhttps://twitter.com/Solera_Daylighthttps://www.instagram.com/bbfhpod/https://www.instagram.com/advancedglazingsltdhttps://www.facebook.com/AdvancedGlazingsltd

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, Bryan takes listeners across Venezuela, Colombia, Mexico, and Chile to reveal a regional battle between the Left and the Right. He then connects these global trends to the rise of Democratic Socialism in the United States and explains what a socialist future for America would look like in the words of the Democratic Socialists of America themselves. Trump Weighs Strikes in Venezuela and Colombia: The USS Gerald Ford carrier strike group has arrived off the Venezuelan coast with fifteen thousand U.S. troops in the region. Trump says he will not rule out military action or even ground forces against the Maduro regime, which the State Department has formally labeled a terrorist organization. Maduro has offered Trump access to Venezuela's massive oil reserves in exchange for staying in power, and the White House is openly considering all options. In Colombia, Marxist president Gustavo Petro continues to defend his past with the M-19 terror group. Trump signaled he is willing to hit Colombian drug labs if necessary, saying he would be "proud" to destroy them. Mexico Erupts Over Cartel Violence: Mexico City saw a weekend of violent protests that left one hundred officers injured. Outrage grew after the assassination of a popular mayor in Michoacan by a cartel-recruited teen. Protesters blasted President Claudia Sheinbaum's approach of "Hugs, Not Bullets," arguing it has empowered cartels and left communities defenseless. Younger Mexicans filled the streets, furious that their country remains trapped between socialist leadership and cartel domination. Chile Rejects the Far Left: Seventy percent of Chilean voters backed conservative candidates in the first round of the presidential election. Jose Kast, a conservative Catholic with nine children, will face Communist Party member Jeanne Jara in the December runoff. Voters say crime, cartels, and mass illegal migration have pushed the nation to the breaking point. Kast has vowed to secure the border with walls and landmines, expand prisons, and cut leftist funding that has fueled unrest and economic decline. The Bigger Picture: A Hemisphere in Revolt: Across Latin America, leftist governments are collapsing under crime, corruption, and failed socialist policies. Voters in Bolivia, Argentina, Ecuador, Panama, and El Salvador have already swung to the Right. Europe is shifting too. Yet the United States is moving in the opposite direction. Cities like New York and Seattle are embracing radical Democratic Socialists who draw inspiration from Latin American Marxists. What a Socialist America Would Look Like: Bryan walks through the Democratic Socialists of America's own strategy document from 2012. The group calls for abolishing private business, seizing the means of production, replacing entrepreneurs with government bureaucrats, and using the Democratic Party as a host to move the country toward Marxism. DSA leaders admit there is no blueprint for how their system would work and acknowledge the violent history of Marxist regimes. Their model depends on free housing, free jobs, free education, and government assigned careers funded by an undefined source. Bryan warns that the movement is already advancing inside the Democratic Party with leaders like AOC and Zohran Mamdani openly following the playbook.

Send us a textWe're kicking off Season 4 of the Medical Money Matters Podcast, and we're celebrating something big. Over 10,000 downloads. Listeners tuning in from nearly 1,000 cities across the country—and even internationally. And we're entering our fourth year of episodes. Honestly, that number still stuns me a little. When we launched this podcast, our goal was simple: to help physicians and practice leaders navigate the business of medicine without losing sight of why they went into medicine in the first place.We wanted to demystify the money side. To have honest, clear conversations about things like revenue cycle, financial strategy, payer policies, and practice independence. We believed then—and we still do now—that when doctors understand the financial side of their practice, they're better equipped to lead, grow, and stay independent.And we're just getting started.Please Follow or Subscribe to get new episodes delivered to you as soon as they drop!

In this first instalment of our two-part special from the C40 World Mayors Summit, Cities 1.5 takes you inside the flagship gathering of the world's most ambitious urban climate leaders. We hear directly from mayors as they unveil this year's Offer of Action – a unified commitment that raises the stakes for urban climate leadership and pointedly challenges national governments to match their ambition with action of their own, all on the eve of COP30. We also speak with leading climate experts and C40 partners to explore why cities remain the most effective engines for rapid, equitable decarbonization, and what they must do next to keep the goal of limiting global heating to 1.5°C alive. And crucially, funders share why they've chosen to invest in C40's global network, highlighting the proven impact of coordinated city action and the urgency of scaling it.Photo credit: ©Bernardo Jardim PhotographyFeatured:Sir Sadiq Khan, C40 Co-Chair and Mayor of LondonNick Reece, Lord Mayor of MelbourneGiuseppe “Beppe” Sala, Mayor of MilanYousef Al-Shawarbeh, Mayor of AmmanKeith Wilson, Mayor of PortlandDr. Nkosindiphile Xhakaza, Executive Mayor of EkurhuleniEduardo Pimentel, Mayor of CuritibaCaterina Sarfatti, Managing Director of Inclusion and Global Leadership at C40Haris Doukas, Mayor of AthensEirik Lae Solberg, Governing Mayor of OsloSøren Staugaard Nielsen, Managing Director of the Ramboll FoundationJo Jewell, Director of Social Responsibility Partnerships at Novo NordiskHon.

In the latest episode of On The Line, Matt Gurney welcomes two very different guests for two very different conversations — and both of them are well worth your time.This episode of The Line Podcast is brought to you by Forestry For The Future. Canada's housing crisis demands bold, scalable solutions. Build Canada Homes is an opportunity to leverage Canadian wood in modern construction. Wood-based methods like mass timber and modular construction can significantly reduce build times, waste, and carbon emissions, while supporting local economies. Expanding building codes, streamlining approvals, and prioritizing domestic wood in federal projects could double demand and foster job creation in rural and northern communities.Despite trade challenges and market volatility, a partnership between industry and government is vital to stabilize the sector, enhance competitiveness, and deliver innovative, sustainably sourced Canadian wood products for homes across Canada and abroad. With capacity growing across provinces, stable demand and predictable financing are key to unlocking the sector's potential.We need to Build Canada Homes with Canadian wood. To learn more, visit ForestryForTheFuture.ca.The episode opens with a wide-ranging chat with Dan Seljak, who joins Matt to unpack an issue that somehow turned into a strangely complicated political fight in Toronto. The whole thing should have been simple: should the city allow small retail outlets inside residential neighbourhoods? Most of us grew up with corner stores, coffee shops, and little walk-in places woven into the communities around us. But Toronto's own governance rules have made these kinds of businesses nearly impossible to open, and the city has been steadily losing the ones it still has. What followed was an unexpectedly intense battle to protect those remaining shops and to make space for new ones. Dan talks about how he found himself pulled into the fight, what it revealed about the way cities make decisions, and why something so basic became so hard. He and Matt dig into a bigger question, too: how did urban governance in Canada become so tangled that even the simple things are impossible to achieve? This isn't a left-right issue — there's a surprising amount of agreement across political lines — and yet nothing gets done. How did we box ourselves into this, and how do we get out?You can read more from Dan, and keep up with his work, at Another Glass Box.After Dan, John Wright joins the show. John is a long-time friend of The Line and has been involved in a campaign to raise public awareness about a once-celebrated Canadian military hero who has almost disappeared from our national memory. He and Matt pick up the thread from last week's discussion about Remembrance Day on The Line Podcast, exploring why these stories fade and why they matter. John also shares a quick update on his own professional world — and it's worth sticking around for. For more information about John's new venture, go here.

No better way to be back in the studio than with comedy legend Judd Apatow. Mark and Sam go deep on the road, European gigs, bombing at the clubs, and why some crowds just refuse to laugh. Judd talks Larry Sanders, Sandler stories, Rodney Dangerfield in a bathrobe, writing on The Critic, the legacy of Norm Macdonald, and what comedy still gets right. Plus, behind-the-scenes of classics like Anchorman, Bridesmaids, Pineapple Express, and what it actually takes to make a real, modern comedy movie.

The Interfaith Movement for Immigrant Justice began more than 20 years ago as an extension of the Portland Immigrant Rights Coalition. Its shorthand is IMIrJ (pronounced “emerge”) with the r standing for refugee. IMIrJ has become an independent nonprofit, drawing “faith communities and people of conscience” into the effort to protect the civil rights and well-being of immigrant families. Members and volunteers provide accompaniment for immigrants to appointments with Immigration and Customs Enforcement, financial support and other resources to immigrants. We talk with IMIrJ organizer and Methodist pastor Keren Rodriguez and IMIrJ board member Bob Brown, who is a long time member of Havurah Shalom, about how their work is going now as the Trump administration pursues mass deportation.
Shawn Taikratoke, CEO and co founder of Mozee, joins the show to unpack one of the biggest questions in mobility today. How close are we to real autonomous transportation and what will actually move the needle in our cities. Shawn breaks down why the future is not a single robotaxi dream, but a more human centered shift in public transit that solves the first and last mile in a smarter way. If you care about how people move, how cities evolve, or how autonomy will reshape everyday life, this one is worth your time.Key Takeaways• The biggest transportation barriers are not technical. They come from how cities were built and how people actually move in short distances.• Robo taxis will play a role, but public transit needs a more flexible and human centered model before adoption changes.• Many Americans still have no access to reliable transit, which creates ripple effects in work, health, and community access.• Real adoption will come when mobility becomes easier and cheaper than using your own car.• Cities want smarter transit, but they need partners that help them bridge gaps without major infrastructure costs.Timestamped Highlights00:44 What Mozee was built to solve and why they avoided the pure robotaxi route03:26 Why autonomy still scares most people and how public perception is shaping rollout06:57 How regional culture and city layout shape transportation adoption10:24 The vision for a mesh network of shared autonomous shuttles16:24 How smarter first mile and last mile service can shift car dependence21:52 What it takes to move from a handful of vehicles to true scale27:54 Why Shawn moved from the robotaxi hype to solving public transit gaps insteadA standout thought“Progress is rarely a straight line. The products that last are the ones that stay human centered.”Pro Tips from the Conversation• Transit solutions that work do not start with tech. They start with how people move in the real world.• Scale only matters when it meaningfully makes someone's day easier.• If you want to understand mobility problems, talk to city officials. They know exactly where the gaps are.Call to ActionIf this episode pushed your thinking about mobility and smart cities, follow the show and share it with someone who is curious about the future of how we move.

In this episode of the 10Adventures podcast, we are joined by Chris Finch, author of Wild Cities, about the critical role nature plays in modern urban life — and how cities around the world are finding simple, innovative ways to reconnect people with the outdoors. Chris explains key concepts from the book, including biophilia, the human need for nature, and homo urbanus, the rapid shift to city living that has reshaped our daily experience over the last century. Together, they explore inspiring examples from cities across the globe: Japan's research on nature and stress, Nairobi's challenges with “biophobia,” Singapore's groundbreaking green buildings, Medellín's wildlife corridors, Barcelona's superblocks and BC Buses, and more. This conversation shows how nature isn't a luxury — it's a necessity that improves health, happiness, safety, and even biodiversity. And importantly, many of the most effective solutions are low-cost, scalable, and already transforming cities today.

PREVIEW. Russia Attacks Ukraine's Energy Nodes: Expecting a Hard Winter. John Hardie discusses Russia's attacks on Ukrainian energy nodes, meaning large cities like Kyiv may only have about 12 hours of electricity daily. This lack of power will put extreme pressure on Ukrainian civilian life during the winter. Moscow hopes freezing the population will break Ukrainian will and add leverage to their negotiating position, though this tactic has not worked in the past two winters. 1940 UKRAINE
