On this episode of Anchored, Jeremy is joined by Michael Bileca, founder of True North, a network of classical charter schools in Florida. They discuss his time working for the Florida state legislature, including some of the education reform policies he enacted. They explore how his work in state politics convinced him to go beyond policy and start a school. They conclude by diving into the story of introducing the CLT to Florida and sharing statistics on its growth over the past few years.

Editorial: O avanço da “pejotização”

Flávio Augusto revela por que o sistema educacional brasileiro o enganou aos 13 anos, a fila de aposentadoria que mudou sua vida para sempre, como construiu um império de $500 milhões vendendo educação, e por que "estabilidade não existe" é a verdade que ninguém quer ouvir.Flávio Augusto saiu da periferia do Rio de Janeiro e fundou a Wise Up, a maior rede de escolas de inglês do Brasil, chegando a 400 unidades e 7.000 funcionários. Vendeu o negócio por US$ 500 milhões e hoje vive nos Estados Unidos, onde compartilha suas lições de empreendedorismo e liberdade com milhões de seguidores nas redes sociais.Ele explica:◼️ O dia aos 13 anos que descobriu estar sendo enganado pelo sistema educacional◼️ Por que olhou para a fila da aposentadoria e jurou nunca entrar ali◼️ Como o sistema se fantasia de amigo mas te escraviza (educação, CLT, previdência)◼️ A verdade sobre o FGTS que ninguém te conta◼️ Por que construiu tudo no Excel antes de executar e chegou aos $500 milhões◼️ O dilema que você vai enfrentar: liberdade ou segurança - não dá para ter as duasSiga Jota Jota Podcast:◼️ Se inscreva no canal - https://youtube.com/@joeljota◼️ Siga no Instagram - https://instagram.com/jotajotapodcast◼️ Siga no TikTok - https://tiktok.com/@jotajotapodcastPatrocinadores:Cheirin Bão - https://bit.ly/cheirinbao-jj#FlavioAugusto #Empreendedorismo #Sistema #Liberdade

O modelo brasileiro de encargos sobre o trabalho, herdado da CLT de 1943, virou um dos principais entraves à formalização do emprego. O custo total de um trabalhador registrado — somando 13º, férias, FGTS, INSS e adicionais — é alto. Para o empresário, isso significa adiar contratações e limitar a expansão. Para o trabalhador, a alternativa de virar PJ aparece como forma de ganhar mais e ter autonomia, mesmo com menos proteção social. No programa Não vou passar raiva sozinha desta semana, a colunista do Estadão Maria Carolina Gontijo, a Duquesa de Tax, afirma que, quando contratar formalmente custa caro e a produtividade é baixa, a economia naturalmente busca saídas laterais. O problema é que esse movimento corrói a base de arrecadação da Previdência e da Saúde, forçando o governo a tapar buracos com remendos e exceções setoriais que tornam o sistema ainda mais desigual e complexo.

Tired of hearing that mass timber is “promising” but not practical? We dig into what actually moves the needle: turning raw products into clean, repeatable systems that installers love and owners can price with confidence. No fluff—just the playbook that took projects from pause to go, even as tariffs and supply shocks rattled budgets.We start with the shift from panels to platforms: shaft wall systems that swap in for CMU without fuss, union training and mock‑ups that build real‑world confidence, and a timber bay approach designed for warehouses and data centres. Then we unpack a standout case study—the Amazon final‑mile warehouse in Indiana—where early alignment around a mass‑timber‑forward hybrid, local forests, and a tight grid delivered speed, beauty, and over 40 sustainability strategies. When teams coordinate around the module, cost and schedule stop fighting each other.Data centre interiors get a rethink too. A patent‑pending CLT base for electrical equipment skids replaces thick steel plates, shortens lead times, and can generate significant sustainability wins. Pair that with the rise of modular, edge data centres and you've got a new standard for fit‑out speed and embodied carbon reduction. Along the way, we make the case for hybrid construction as the default future: concrete where it belongs, steel where it performs, and timber where it excels. Use a practical “purity” lens and real invoice volumes to find the tipping points for cost and carbon, region by region.This conversation champions regional species and honest specs—span tables over wish lists, performance criteria over perfection. Knots are not defects; they're the story of the forest. And that story extends to circularity: repeatable grids that enable disassembly, second‑life panels, and cross‑market reuse, all supported by a healthy whole‑tree economy that includes sawmills, bioenergy, and paper.

Em uma carta recente, a Ártica provoca: por que não saímos do lugar?Ivan aponta problemas profundos que vão além da política. Ele explica como a "cultura do ganho fácil" e a mentalidade de que "CDF é otário" são os verdadeiros freios da nossa educação e produtividade. Discutimos também como programas de benefícios, como o Bolsa Família, criam uma "armadilha populista" que desincentiva o trabalho formal (CLT) e gera falta de mão de obra na indústria.Além disso, o gestor detalha como o complexo sistema tributário brasileiro incentiva mais o lobby do que a eficiência. Segundo ele, no Brasil, "vale mais a pena fazer lobby do que fazer a melhor cadeira do mundo".Mas, então, como um investidor de longo prazo navega nesse cenário de "mediocridade estável"? Ivan Barboza revela sua estratégia para lucrar com a volatilidade gerada por esses ruídos. Ele explica por que ignora o "Tarcísio Trade" e foca em comprar boas empresas quando todos estão pessimistas – como agora, momento em que a alocação do investidor local na bolsa está nas mínimas de 25 anos.Para fechar, o gestor abre a carteira da Ártica e detalha três teses de investimento:-Suzano (SUZB3): Por que ele está comprando a "Arábia Saudita da celulose" enquanto o preço da commodity está em baixa.-Track & Field (TFCO4): A "marca de luxo" do exercício que criou um nicho protegido e cresce de forma consistente.-Charmcare (Japão): A surpreendente tese internacional para investir no envelhecimento da população japonesa.Você concorda com o Ivan? O maior problema do Brasil é a nossa cultura de "querer levar vantagem" ou são as regras do jogo (impostos, política) que nos travam? Deixe sua opinião nos comentários!

In this episode of the Fire Science Show we invite dr. Antonela Čolić from the OFR Consultants, to break down the performance of adhesives used in CLT in fire, what differences between the glues are observable at the microscale  and how they show up in real structure fires.We compare common polyurethane adhesives: one that softens near 200–220 C and one that resists softening, crosslinks, and ultimately chars. Through thermogravimetric and calorimetric testing, we map pivotal transitions like glass transition and softening. Then we scale up. With small shear-lap coupons and meter-long cantilevers under controlled heat flux, we see how mechanical load amplifies normal strains at the bond line—especially in cross-laminated elements where grain orientation concentrates stress. The result is a clear picture of when heat-induced delamination begins, how it differs from char fall-off, and why heat flux often dominates the story.Moisture emerges as a powerful, often overlooked driver. Using neutron imaging, we visualize vapor moving toward and across the bond line, slowing as it crosses the interface. That temporary moisture retention can make an adhesive appear to “fail at a lower temperature,” not from chemistry alone but from local pore pressure and hydration dynamics. We translate these findings into actionable guidance: specify adhesives that char rather than soften, control lamella thickness, consider parallel lamellas to preserve capacity after a ply loss, and model realistic heat flux and shear demands instead of relying on a single critical temperature.If you design or review mass timber, this conversation gives you the tools to ask better questions: Which adhesive? What heat flux history? How much shear at the bond line? And how will moisture in use and during fire shift the thresholds you're counting on? Interested in further reading?

Amid the rise of sustainable architecture, mass timber has become a powerful symbol of progress — a material that marries renewable design with modern efficiency. Yet, in the damp climate of Vancouver, BC, sustainability meets its match: moisture. Managing humidity levels in large-scale wood construction isn't just a matter of comfort; it's about protecting structural integrity, schedule, and long-term performance. For the University of the Fraser Valley's new student housing project, these challenges were amplified by the region's relentless rainfall and the building's unique E-shaped design, which trapped moisture in stubborn corners.Enter Polygon — and more specifically, Sean Smith, the company's Vancouver Branch Manager. Tasked by Clark Builders to safeguard the project, Smith and his team engineered a fully integrated moisture control system that turned real-time data into action. Over 50 sensors were installed across the site to monitor both ambient conditions and the internal moisture levels of the CLT (cross-laminated timber) floors. These sensors communicated directly with an intelligent network of desiccant dehumidifiers and heaters, automatically adjusting output to maintain optimal conditions.The result? A system that not only protected materials but also optimized energy use and streamlined workflow. Manual moisture checks were replaced by live dashboards, and project teams gained confidence backed by data, not guesswork. What could have been weeks of weather-induced delays turned into a masterclass in proactive environmental control.To understand how smart systems and strategic thinking kept this mass timber project on track — and why automation may be the future of construction moisture management — we turn to Sean Smith, Branch Manager at Polygon, who helped lead the charge on the University of the Fraser Valley's student housing project.

House prefabrication using flat pack panels delivers multiple environmental and cost benefits and is the way of the future. In today's episode, we dive into our next sustainable design theme, prefabrication, and we'll explore house design and construction using cross laminated timber. Architect Jae Warrander, director of Makers, shares the story behind his Akaroa Bach: a prefabricated holiday home situated in a mild temperate climate on the east coast of New Zealand's South Island. Makers, located in Wellington, New Zealand, is a collaboration between Makers of Architecture and Makers Fabrication. Today we'll explore what CLT is, the process, benefits and costs of using CLT for prefabricated panel construction, and the ideal scenarios for utilising CLT.

KEY POINTS SUMMARY1. Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) is an engineered wood panel product created by gluing layers of timber together with the grain alternating at 90 degrees for added strength. CLT panels are cut into entire wall, floor and roof sections with precise computer accuracy. 2. CLT buildings must be meticulously designed and this includes all openings and holes cut for doors and windows, services, fittings and even power points. Everything must be accurately located in the computer shop drawings because making changes on site is very challenging. 3. The CLT serves as both the internal wall lining and the structural shell. Externally, it needs thermal insulation, a weather and air tightness building wrap and cladding for weatherproofing. Internally, makers utilise prefabricated stud frame walls in conjunction with CLT to accommodate access to services, particularly in bathrooms. 4. Once prefabricated, the CLT panels are transported to the site and assembled to create the entire building form. The construction timeline is streamlined because site foundations, retaining walls and service connections can occur simultaneously with the off site CLT prefabrication. 5. Prefabrication using CLT offers several advantages: It replaces studs, bracing and other structural components. It eliminates the need for trims such as skirtings, cornices and architraves. It's made from locally sourced New Zealand pine. It reduces construction time on site. It enables building on remote or difficult to...

On this episode of Anchored, Jeremy is joined by Sarah Novlan, Chief Academic Officer at Hill Country Christian School. They announce CLT Enduring Courses as a new alternative to AP curriculum, launching in the 2026–27 academic year. The two examine how the AP classes often contradict a classical curriculum in both rigor and content. They also explore why classical schools are eager for changes in the college prep–course landscape, and the telos that sets CLT apart. 

No episódio desta semana, analisamos a nova edição do Panorama do Mercado de Produto 2025 da PM3.

In this episode of State of Choice, host Ed Tarnowski talks with Michael Torres, Director of Legislative Strategy at the Classic Learning Test (CLT), about how CLT is challenging the SAT and ACT by offering a liberal arts-based testing. Torres shares the story of CLT's founding, its rapid growth—especially after Florida's adoption of the test—and ongoing efforts to expand into other states despite pushback. The conversation also explores the impact of standardized testing monopolies on education policy and curriculum, the importance of competition in testing, and CLT's new initiative to create an alternative to Advanced Placement (AP) courses and exams.

Big moves in mass timber are landing across sport, offices, research labs, and civic spaces—and the ripple effects are hard to ignore. We kick off with Fukushima United FC's proposed 5,000‑seat timber stadium, a circular design that aims to reduce waste, maximise reuse, and stand as a sign of recovery for a community shaped by the 2011 disaster. From modular elements to reversible connections, the vision doubles as a blueprint for how mid‑scale venues can evolve over decades without locking in carbon or demolition costs.Then we head to Sweden, where the Fire Torrent office tower climbs to 51.5 metres without a concrete core. Glulam frames, CLT slabs, and integrated solar show how a fabric‑first approach can deliver stability, performance, and character. We unpack what this means for lateral systems, fire safety, and whole‑life carbon, and why pure timber towers expand the design space beyond familiar hybrids. If you're tracking tall timber, this one belongs on your watchlist.The research front brings a potential game‑changer: Swiss teams demonstrate that timber walls with windows can resist over 100 kN of horizontal load, challenging a long‑held assumption that often forced overdesign. Better data on openings unlocks smarter layouts, more daylight, and lower embodied carbon, while paving the way for code updates. We connect those findings to real projects, including Northstowe's Unity Centre—now topped out with an exposed CLT frame, a sawtooth roof, and a flexible program of hall, café, civic offices, and co‑working. Finally, we spotlight Scotland's BEST innovation campus relaunch and its Mass Timber Centre for Excellence inside the national retrofit hub, where industry, academia, and policymakers will accelerate testing, training, and circular construction.If low‑carbon building, circular design, and code‑level evidence matter to you, this update delivers the signals you need.

What happens when faith and bigotry collide? A Texas preacher made headlines after telling white Christian parents they need to give their kids "the talk” about the supposed dangers of Black people. This week on Thank God I'm Atheist: Trump's “patriotic education” plan turns the nation's 250th birthday into Christian nationalist indoctrination. Kash Patel sends Charlie Kirk to Valhalla (yes, really). The Taliban bans books by women and cuts more subjects from universities. A Colorado pastor's crypto scam crashes and burns. A Texas pastor goes full racist with his so-called “talk.” U.S. military academies start accepting the Christian nationalist CLT exam. And for the big topic: Frank and Dan debate the promise (and horror) of human immortality—would we even want to live forever?

Neste episódio do Vivendo e Empreendendo, vamos falar sobre um momento que muitos profissionais já pensaram em viver: trocar a segurança de um emprego CLT pela construção de um negócio próprio. Como é esse processo? Quais são os desafios, os aprendizados e os caminhos que podem tornar essa transição uma experiência transformadora? Para essa conversa, recebemos duas convidadas que decidiram dar esse passo e hoje têm trajetórias inspiradoras. Recebemos a Júlia Barros, que formou-se em jornalismo há três anos, trabalhou em um grande veículo de comunicação do Estado e decidiu sair para criar a Jú Barros Company. Hoje, é social media e ajuda empresas a construírem seus perfis e a contarem suas histórias no mundo digital. Também conosco, temos a Angélica Silvino, que é relações públicas, atuou por muitos anos em comunicação corporativa e decidiu empreender criando a Signá Branding, empresa que ajuda mulheres a transformarem e fortalecerem suas marcas pessoais.

Headlines are easy; proof is better. This week we track real progress you can use: a global seminar that brings steel, concrete, and timber into one hybrid toolkit; a UK system that simplifies glulam frames, CLT floors, and cassette façades; and a practical moisture guide that turns a common risk into a clear plan. We dig into why hybrids are winning on cost, speed, and carbon—and how design teams can standardise details to deliver predictable results on live sites.We also spotlight hands-on learning. The Think Wood and SUNY construction management workshop in Syracuse offers 2.5 days of practical skills—erection sequencing, vibration criteria, fire and acoustic planning, logistics, and shop drawing review—so students and professionals can move from curiosity to capability. Then we head to Arkansas, where the Anthony Timberlands Center anchors research and making under one roof: wood and metal shops, 3D printing, and an external yard designed for prototyping joints, testing moisture strategies, and validating spans. It's a living lab that links regional forestry to high‑performance design and transparent carbon accounting.Finally, we celebrate a civic milestone: Ireland's first privately developed net‑zero public building, a mass timber crèche and community centre at Altador Gardens. It's proof that responsible sourcing, fabric‑first envelopes, and smart systems can bring down embodied and operational carbon in everyday buildings—not just flagships. Along the way, we share links, resources, and ways to participate, from the international seminar in Italy to open guides and our LinkedIn updates.

No episódio, a professora Ana Frazão entrevista Gustavo Henrique Moraes, Pesquisador do Instituto Nacional de Estudos e Pesquisas Educacionais Anísio Teixeira (INEP/MEC), Doutor em Educação pela UnB e Pós-Doutor em Educação pela Universidade de Stanford. Na conversa, o professor Gustavo explica as razões pelas quais o acesso à educação não gera necessariamente mobilidade social ou pelo menos a mobilidade que seria esperada. Nesse sentido, é abordado estudo em conjunto com Guilherme Lichand, Maria Eduarda Perpétuo e Priscila Soares, nos quais os autores quantificaram uma espantosa diferença mesmo entre os que concluem a faculdade: os 90% mais pobres ganham apenas metade do que ganham os 10% mais ricos. O professor Gustavo procura explicar os resultados, fazendo conexões com o recente livro de Michael França e Fillipi Nascimento (“A loteria do nascimento”), no qual abordam que os filhos dos mais pobres podem terminar a universidade mas não alcançam os filhos dos ricos.Na segunda parte da conversa, o professor Gustavo mostra a importância da Educação Profissional e Técnica para criar maior desenvolvimento econômico e mobilidade social, explicando o atual cenário da EPT no Brasil em termos de qualidade e impacto proporcional na formação dos jovens. Dentre os tópicos abordados estão o peso da questão cultural em um país como o Brasil, que ainda cultua o diploma e divide as profissões entre as de rico e a de pobre, os desafios da EPT na atual geração, em que ser “CLT” virou xingamento e a ansiedade – em todos os campos da vida, mas sobretudo no profissional – se tornou uma marca. Apesar das dificuldades, o professor Gustavo conclui que a EPT, se bem executada, é uma forma de alterar nosso contrato social, embora isso exija uma longa agenda.

Want a clear view of where mass timber is winning right now? We walk through five fresh stories that tie speed, carbon, and human-centred design into one practical playbook—then cap it with a new moisture management guide that raises the quality bar for everyone building with wood.We start with Heathrow's Eastern Business Park, where logistics pressures demand fast delivery and minimal disruption. Prefabricated roof panels arrive with solar arrays integrated, steel frames are pre-assembled and reassembled on site, and cross-laminated timber sections drop into place with precision. It's a case study in how digital planning and factory-first workflows translate into fewer site hours and better energy performance from day one.From there, we head to Oregon's La Plaza Esperanza, a mass timber community hub designed by ZGF that offsets roughly 80% of its energy use with solar. The exposed structure, sloped roof, and light-filled rooms support a bilingual preschool, youth programmes, and a flexible hall for celebrations—proof that CLT can carry beauty, comfort, and equity in the same envelope. We also spotlight Matt's Place 2.0 in Spokane, an ALS-friendly smart home that pairs CLT and modular construction with voice-activated controls for doors, lighting, and security, protecting dignity as mobility declines. Then it's over to Gdańsk, where the Fahrenheit student housing complex uses CLT for sustainable, adaptable dorms that balance privacy, daylight, and social spaces—an honest answer to modern student needs.Threading through every segment is the importance of water tightness and durability.

In 2015, Jeremy Tate embarked on a mission to provide alternative standardized tests rooted in tradition. It all began when Jeremy questioned how American education had come to be so utilitarian, realizing that transcendent, moral, and ethical ideas had been gutted from the classroom. He came to the conclusion that high-stakes testing was partially to blame, driving secondary school curriculum. David Coleman, CEO of the College Board, has stated publicly that “teachers will teach towards the test. There is no force on this earth strong enough to prevent that.” If teaching to the test is an inescapable reality, then shouldn't those tests engage students with the thinkers and writings that have most meaningfully shaped history and culture?  Historically, the goal of education has been understood as developing both intellect and character in students. Its purpose was to help students become better human beings. Standardized tests should reflect that same goal. They should leave students feeling inspired and enriched while equipping them to pursue their goals. That's why our tests feature beautiful and meaningful content in addition to assessing timeless academic skills. By offering a new standard for assessments, CLT aims to be a catalyst for renewal in education nationwide.

On this episode of Anchored, Soren is joined by Jeff Brown, Headmaster of Hunter Classical Christian School in Richmond, Virginia. They discuss Jeff's journey to discovering classical education, and Hunter Classical's commitment to cultivating character before transcripts. They examine the CLT as a valuable standard for what an ideal student should aspire to learn and an exemplary school should aspire to teach. They conclude by talking about the future of Hunter Classical, including their first class of ninth graders starting this fall. 

Allied health professionals are a group of healthcare providers whose role and expertise complement the work of physicians. They include specialists such as physical and occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, nutritionists, and many more. They are just as important as your Movement Disorders Specialists and Neurologists and play a vital role in creating a comprehensive, well-rounded Parkinson's care team that attends to your individual needs and addresses your overall well-being. Many people are familiar with physical and speech therapists, but fewer recognize the valuable benefits of working with an occupational therapist (OT). An OT helps identify the activities that you enjoy and ensures strategies are in place so you can continue doing what matters most. They work with you to adapt your environment, tap into your strengths, and create realistic strategies so you can keep living life on your terms. In this episode, Karyssa Silva, MS, OTR/L, CLT, an occupational therapist at Aldersbridge Physical Therapy & Wellness Outpatient Center in Rhode Island, shares how she helps people with Parkinson's with daily tasks and activities that bring them joy. She works closely with people with PD and their loved ones to address physical and mental challenges, empowering them to stay engaged in the activities they value the most. During the episode, Karyssa mentions that people sometimes walk away from their OT appointment and wonder if they missed something important. Here's a worksheet to help organize your thoughts and make the most of your time during appointments. Follow and rate us on your favorite podcast platform to be notified when there's a new episode!

What happens when the tests no longer reflect the education? In this episode, Davies Owens sits down with Sarah Novlan, Chief Academic Officer at Hill Country Christian School and a doctoral candidate studying the Harkness Seminar model, to explore why the once-revered AP program is falling short in today's classical Christian schools. Together, they unpack the misalignment between AP coursework and the mission of classical education, the challenges of teaching to a test, and the dumbing down of rigor and content, especially in the humanities. Sarah shares her own journey from AP instructor to advocate for better assessments and introduces CLT's new Enduring Courses, an emerging alternative that honors intellectual virtue, great books, and oral expression. If you've ever wondered whether AP or dual credit is still the right path - or what better options may be on the horizon - this conversation is a must.

Se você ainda bate ponto com carteira assinada, parabéns — já faz parte de uma minoria. Segundo o IBGE, em 2024 eram 39 milhões de brasileiros na informalidade, 36 milhões com carteira e outros 14 milhões de MEIs. A balança virou. Isso é o apocalipse da CLT ou só a cara de um mercado mais ágil, que troca estabilidade por autonomia? Tem quem chame de “uberização” e veja um desmonte de direitos. Tem quem celebre como adaptação a um mundo líquido, de ciclos curtos e tecnologia on-demand. O fato é que as regras que responderam aos desafios do século XX — fruto de lutas centenárias — talvez não caibam inteiras nesse admirável mundo novo. Plataformas digitais concentram poder, algoritmos redesenham tarefas e a mesa de negociação entre capital e trabalho ficou inclinada. Hoje queremos refletir sobre essas mudanças sem cair na simplificação “progresso econômico versus retrocesso social”. Vamos fazer um balanço dos cinco anos de flexibilização, destrinchar números de emprego, renda e informalidade e perguntar: quem ganhou e quem perdeu? Quais direitos fazem mesmo diferença no dia a dia? Dá para combinar liberdade contratual com segurança de renda? Para essa conversa trouxemos especialistas que fogem do Fla-Flu ideológico. Gente que lê microdados, que estuda padrões internacionais e enxerga o impacto da IA na ponta. Participam com a gente: Leonardo Melo Lins: Analista do Cetic.br e doutor em Sociologia pela USP, pesquisa uso de TICs, inovação e aprendizado organizacional. André Luiz Pereira Mancha: Professor de Economia da USP, doutor pelo INSPER, atua em temas como crime, desenvolvimento e meio ambiente. Então respira fundo — porque entender o futuro do trabalho é entender o futuro de quase tudo: dignidade, identidade, tempo livre, riqueza e desigualdade. Vem com a gente construir pontes nesse debate que, goste ou não, atravessa a vida de todo mundo. ----- NexGard Spectra® é o único antiparasitário oral que protege contra quatro parasitas em um único tablete mensal.
