One more match at TQL, and the FC Cincinnati regular season is officially in the books. It may depend on who you ask, but the Noonan-Albright Era appears to be the gold standard, achieving heights that were not expected on Day 1. It's easy to call a finish in the Top 3 a success. On the other hand, how did this season look from the outside? For such promising transfer markets in the winter and summer, did FC Cincinnati fall short of the mark? David Gass joins Geoff and Coach Gough for a special double-wide Jersey Swap to close out the regular season. We ask the founder and host of Soccerwise about the launch of his new endeavor this year and his perception of FC Cincinnati from a distance. What are his thoughts on the roster and staff as they power into the postseason? What is holding the Orange & Blue back from another trophy in the case? Most of all, who from FCC does he feel would fit his theorem and have a terrific year in 2026? Tune in and trade threads with us! #MLS #FCCincinnati #soccer Become a Patron!

Here, Peter Hotez and Michael Mann name names...It's not too late to do something; it's time to get things done. Read on” (Bill Nye, science educator) From pandemics to the climate crisis, humanity faces tougher challenges than ever. Whether it's the health of our people or the health of our planet, we know we are on an unsustainable path. But our efforts to effectively tackle these existential crises are now hampered by a common threat: politically and ideologically motivated opposition to science. Michael E. Mann and Peter J. Hotez are two of the most respected and well-known scientists in the world and have spent the last twenty years on the front lines of the battle to convey accurate, reliable, and trustworthy information about science in the face of determined and nihilistic opposition. In this powerful manifesto, they reveal the five main forces threatening science: plutocrats, pros, petrostates, phonies, and the press. It is a call to arms and a road map for dismantling the forces of anti-science. Armed with the information in this book, we can be empowered to promote scientific truths, shine light on channels of dark money, dismantle the corporations poisoning the planet, and ultimately avert disaster. Peter J. Hotez, MD, PhD, is the founding dean of The National School of Tropical Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas, as well as director of the Texas Children's Hospital Center for Vaccine Development.

While in Paris for the FIA Forum, Walt Lukken sat down with Klaus Löber, Chair of the CCP Supervisory Committee at the European Securities Markets Authority (ESMA) to discuss market trends, regulatory simplification, EMIR 3.0 and the importance of working with other international regulators.
Trolling Trump and rejecting him with a pointed message of what a peacemaker really looks like is not beneath the Nobel Peace Prize Committee, as they release the emotional phone call made to the true winner, Maria Corina Machado, the exiled opposition leader of the “election-denying” Jan 6-like coup in Venezuela. Michael Popok brings the receipts with the poignant phone call from the Committee to Ms. Machado, and in that call Popok sees the reason that Trump will NEVER will the prize, as he moves closer to indicted international war criminal than a peace prize recipient.

Members of the committee that determine the winners of the Nobel Peace Prize are reportedly having a good laugh at Donald Trump's expense. Trump has whined for years about how much he wants to win the award, both publicly and privately, and he's still eaten up by the fact that President Obama received the award many years ago. But the Committee is not impressed by anything that Trump has done, and in fact they are rather repulsed by his outlandish claims of accomplishment and his actions at home in America. White House officials were forced to admit this week that Donald Trump made a MASSIVE mistake by sending out his Truth Social post to Pam Bondi last month where he demanded that she go after his political enemies. The White House confirmed that this post was actually supposed to be a private message to Bondi, but the damage is already done. That public post is going to be used in every single trial that comes about from Bondi's actions from now until she leaves office, and it's going to get a lot, if not all, of the prosecutions thrown out. Lauren Boebert has officially launched her campaign for reelection, and she did it in the most Boebert way possible: By sending out a campaign email asking "Are Aliens real?" While there are plenty of people that want answers to that question as well as what the government knows about the issue, it is hardly a kitchen table issue for the vast majority of American families. Boebert is trying to distract people from the fact that Republicans are complete failures at governing.According to the members of the House who are trying to force a vote on the release of the Epstein files, the Republican coalition that is standing in the way is falling apart, and they are about to revolt against Donald Trump. This information came from Democrat Eric Swalwell and Republican Thomas Massie, and it shows that Republicans are feeling heat for not allowing the files to go public. This whole mess could come to an end soon, as Mike Johnson cannot continue to hold things up forever. Attorney General Pam Bondi was hauled in front of a Senate committee hearing this week, and she bombed harder than anyone could have predicted. It was so bad that even Republican senators were bashing her. But the humiliation didn't end when the hearing ended because a photographer was able to capture her handwritten notes that she brought into the meeting, and they were the most pathetic talking points possible. She even had to write down her insults in advance so she wouldn't forget them!

In this week's episode, we'll be talking about the Flatwoods Monster of West Virginia. In 1952, he made his appearance on Fisher's farm after crashing or landing his craft on a nearby hillside. Witnessed by many, the 10 foot tall creature hovered over the ground and emitted a purplish haze that made them sick. One man saw the craft leave, the morning after the incident. The Air Force and the Committee for Skeptical Inquiry said the witnesses saw an owl and were exposed to mustard gas. We think it was real.

At last night's Boston School Committee meeting, members dove immediately into another discussion about the Exam School Admissions Policy Recommendation, foregoing the usual Superintendent's Report. In response to committee requests from the last meeting, the district presented new simulations that gave equal weight (as opposed to 70% grades and 30% MPA score) to both GPA and MAP assessment scores. The district found that there was minimal change in the overall makeup of students admitted to exam schools. Secondary Schools Policy Update: The Committee then moved through grant approvals and then heard a report on secondary school policies, including graduation and vocational admissions criteria. The Committee discussed adding weighted lotteries for all vocational programs, spurring questions about the complexities of admissions for families. District leaders outlined new competency determination requirements to align with updated state (DESE) standards for the Class of 2026 and beyond, with adjustments for multilingual learners, students with disabilities, and those with exceptional circumstances. Embedded in the district's presentation was also a recommendation for a watered-down MassCore with a “D-” signaling mastery in certain courses. This raised concerns about expectations and abiding by the previous Committee votes to use MassCore as the graduation standard. Additionally, the district failed to present data for the Class of 2025, prompting Member Brandon Cardet-Hernandez to question how many students are currently on track to meet graduation standards. He noted that in the presentation disseminated by the district only 41% of the Class of 2026 appears to be on pace to complete MassCore, and therefore graduate. Summer Learning Initiatives: Next, the Superintendent presented on Summer Learning 2025, reporting participation from 14,600 students, up 600 from the previous year. The district highlighted stronger collaboration across departments and improved multilingual family communications. However, outcomes from these summer programs were nonexistent. Member Cardet-Hernandez questioned whether the district is truly committed to evaluating outcomes. He pressed for evidence that these expensive programs are actually closing achievement gaps. Member Skerritt echoed that same concern, asking for longitudinal tracking of student outcomes, noting that with today's data tools, the district should be able to easily compare participants' attendance, growth, and testing results to prior years. MCAS and Accountability Results: The final report of the night centered on 2025 State Assessment and Accountability Results. Superintendent Skipper cited “encouraging progress” in literacy for grades 3–8 and said Boston outperformed other large districts statewide. But a closer look revealed troubling trends. Member Cardet-Hernandez questioned the effects of “social promotion,” advancing students who haven't met grade-level standards, and how this impacts high school achievement. Member Skerritt then asked what proficiency targets the district is actually aiming for, suggesting BPS set clear districtwide goals through 2030. As the below chart indicates, MCAS scores remain below pre-pandemic levels across all grades: Despite these declines, the district framed the results as “encouraging,” a characterization that is difficult to reconcile with the data. What's Next: The meeting was emblematic of the district's current crossroads: a push for optimism and narrative control amid academic stagnation. The next meeting will be held on October 29th.

Give to help Chris continue to make Truce Bob Jones University v. United States (1983) was a landmark U.S. Supreme Court case that addressed whether the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) could deny tax-exempt status to private religious schools that practiced racially discriminatory policies. Bob Jones University, a fundamentalist Christian institution, prohibited interracial dating and marriage among its students based on its religious beliefs. In 1970, the IRS revised its policy to deny tax-exempt status to private schools with racially discriminatory admissions policies, prompting Bob Jones University to file suit after losing its exemption. The university argued that the IRS's actions violated its First Amendment rights to free exercise of religion. The central question for the Court was whether the government's interest in eradicating racial discrimination in education outweighed the burden on religious freedom imposed by the denial of tax-exempt status. The case thus pitted two core constitutional principles against each other: religious liberty and the government's interest in promoting equality. In an 8–1 decision, the Supreme Court upheld the IRS's position. Chief Justice Warren Burger, writing for the majority, stated that tax-exempt status is a form of government subsidy and that organizations seeking this benefit must serve a public interest. The Court held that eliminating racial discrimination in education was a "fundamental, overriding interest" that justified the burden on the university's religious practices. It emphasized that the government is not required to subsidize discriminatory behavior, even when it is religiously motivated. The ruling had significant implications. It clarified that tax-exempt status is conditional upon compliance with fundamental public policy, including civil rights laws. The decision reinforced the principle that religious freedom, while protected, does not allow institutions to violate core public values when receiving government benefits. This case remains a key precedent in balancing religious liberty with broader societal interests in equality and nondiscrimination. Sources: The Story of Bob Jones University v.

A breakthrough discovery in the 1970s was the determination of alpha-fetoprotein levels in the serum of pregnant women to detect fetuses with neural tube defects. In the case of high AFP values in maternal serum, amniocentesis was performed to determine the levels of AFP and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in the amniotic fluid to confirm the diagnosis. Currently, the ACOG states that high-quality, second-trimester fetal anatomy ultrasonography is an appropriate screening test for NTDs where routinely performed for fetal anatomic survey at 18 to 22 weeks. If optimal images of the fetal spine, intracranial anatomy, or anterior abdominal wall are not obtained (eg, fetal position or maternal obesity), MSAFP should be performed to improve detection of NTDs (ACOG Practice Bulletin No. 187: Neural Tube Defects. Committee on Practice Bulletins Obstet Gynecol. 2017). Some clinicians (as we do in our practice) order both fetal anatomy ultrasound and msAFP concurrently. What are the implications when the msAFP is elevated with a normal fetal anatomical survey? Where is this msAFP coming from? Listen in for details.1.

Governor Kasich explains why integrating mental health into primary care could be a game-changer for kids and adults alike.

And then when they tell you you can't have it anymore and you got to go find another one. I think it's a lot easier to just say, I'll just try to make my way through this, even when it's really difficult. And that was another one we keep working on.” ~Former Ohio Governor, John Kasich Our guest, John Kasich, is a national leader who has spent a lifetime bringing people together to solve big problems and leaving the world around them just a little bit better than they found it.

He went on to cut a record $5 billion in taxes, cut wasteful spending, reduce red tape and build Ohio's rainy-day fund to more than $2 billion. Gov. Kasich ran for President in 2016. He was the last candidate to leave the GOP primary and finished third in the total delegate count. His message focused on unifying Americans rather than dividing them, championing the great potential of our citizens to make positive impacts in their own communities, a strong national defense and the importance of our international alliances. Today, he runs the Kasich Company strategic consulting firm and serves as a television commentator for NBC and MSNBC. He is also a fellow at the Bipartisan Policy Center, the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget and the Meadows Mental Health Policy Health Institute.
