This conversation with Parul Jagdish (EP275), Thomas Schindler (LI) and Lars Lægreid (LI) is about the Oslo Project. The moonshot project for resourcing and liberating new imaginations for our world. Similar to the Manhattan project, compiling thousands of individuals across the world in the 40's, the Oslo projects aims to direct $400 bn towards regenerative futures. We spoke of dematerialisation, of what it means to have had luck, to integrate to move forward - combining science with other ways of knowing. We spoke of scale, lore, education. How curious it is that our hopes and dreams are so similar at the moment across political divides and walks of life. The invitation is for you to get involved. Longer term or in the series of gatherings that will be happening fall 2025/spring 2026. Come along.

Bordelais Correctional Facility Opens New Compost House to Boost Sustainability and Food Security

In this special episode of American Thought Leaders, I visited the Food Independence Summit, an annual event dedicated to homesteading, sustainable living, and reclaiming food autonomy, in Walnut Creek, Ohio. The 2025 summit, with a theme of “Seed to Spoon,” took place in mid-June earlier this year in the heart of Ohio's Amish country.Homesteaders, farmers, gardeners, educators, and healthy food advocates spent two days together participating in hands-on workshops, listening to keynote presentations, and networking with like-minded people.For many Americans, the COVID-19 pandemic exposed the fragility of supply chains, including the food supply chain. The summit's focus was on learning how to grow, preserve, and prepare homegrown food.While at the summit, I spoke with organizer John Miller to learn about the philosophy behind this growing homesteading and self-sufficiency movement. I also spoke with renowned farmer Joel Salatin about what new trends he's seeing.I even got some hands-on practice pressure-canning beef tacos with the help of Sarah Thrush, a canning expert and social media influencer.“There's a lot of reasons people can, but one of them is so they can decide what goes in the jar, like if you have health concerns, or if you want to know what your food is sourced from, or you just like your chili recipe and you want it in bulk,” Thrush said. “It's like the ultimate meal prep.”I also spoke to physician Julian Douwes, who flew to Ohio all the way from Germany. Dr. Douwes is the director at Clinicum St. Georg in Bad Aibling, Germany, where they developed the first known cure for Lyme disease. Many people in the Ohio Amish community suffer from Lyme disease. Miller himself was cured from an awful case of the disease through this therapy, called whole-body hyperthermia.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

Jake Zwaagstra is the CEO of TriCelta Development and a veteran builder of complex hospitality projects from the Las Vegas Strip to tribal mega-developments. He's worked both GC-side and owner-side, translating vision into budgets, drawings into buildings, and chaos into opening days. Susan and Jake talk about function over flair and momentum over mayhem. What You'll Learn About: • The owner's-eye view that changes everything about building • Lessons hotel development can steal from nuclear projects • The real difference between a project manager and a development manager • What developers actually do day to day on hotel builds • Smart ways to stay ahead of supply-chain chaos • Why front-desk mockups save years of operator frustration • The three-part formula for better design decisions • How model rooms power everything from IT to marketing • Why tech-forward hotels still need human touch • How to rescue a luxury project from $1,100-per-foot wallpaper Our Top Three Takeaways 1. Development Management Is More Than Construction Jake distinguishes development management from project management—it's about guiding the project from concept to completion, not just managing timelines and contractors. His team's role is to translate an owner's vision into an operationally sound, financially viable, and buildable reality. They stay several steps ahead of potential roadblocks—whether that's tariffs, supply chain issues, or union disputes—to keep the project moving and protect the owner's investment. 2. Function and Long-Term Operations Trump Aesthetics Jake's philosophy is clear: never "value engineer" something that affects the operator's ability to run the property. Early decisions—like front desk ergonomics, model room mockups, and material choices—should be made with the day-two operator in mind. He prioritizes function over form, lead time over looks, and performance over preference to ensure hotels are built to operate smoothly and sustainably long after the ribbon-cutting. 3. Communication and Accountability Are the Secret Weapons Lessons from outside hospitality, such as his experience building a nuclear enrichment facility, reinforced Jake's belief in over-communication and structured accountability. His "Plan of the Day" approach—daily 15-minute check-ins to clarify goals and track follow-through—keeps massive projects aligned and moving. That same mindset applies to hospitality development: clear expectations, daily progress, and follow-up ensure no one loses sight of the big picture, even on complex, multi-year builds.

AP correspondent Ed Donahue reports on the fate of pumpkins after Halloween.

This week on The Veg Grower Podcast, Richard enjoys a productive weekend of gardening, with mild autumn weather, a few fireworks for the dog to contend with, and plenty of composting, tidying, and planning for the colder months ahead. In the Kitchen Garden After a lovely weekend of good gardening weather, Richard shares how it's left him smiling — the kind of days that remind us why we love being outside this time of year. With the dog and chickens safely tucked away during the firework noise, the focus has been on tidying up the beds and adding more compost to improve the soil before winter sets in. Most of the compost used is home-made — the result of months of careful recycling and turning — but for anyone needing to top up, Richard recommends PSA100 compost bought in bulk as a cost-effective alternative. The same approach has been used in the Vegepod area, where the beds have been cleared and prepped ready for the next round of sowing. It's all part of setting the garden up so it's ready to burst into life again next spring. Supporters Club Segment As always, Richard pauses to thank his Supporters Club members for helping keep the podcast running.Members receive extra behind-the-scenes podcasts and a monthly seed pack to sow, along with exclusive growing tips and access to a friendly online community. You can join the Supporters Club for just £5 a month at theveggrowerpodcast.co.uk. Down on the Allotment Over on the allotment, Richard has now lifted the last of the potatoes for the year — a satisfying job that marks the end of another growing season. The leftover straw mulch from the potato beds has been repurposed to cover the rhubarb and other perennial vegetables, helping protect them from the winter cold and frost. It's a small but effective way to reuse materials and make sure the soil — and plants — stay healthy through the winter months. Chef Scott's Recipe of the Week Chef Scott makes his return this week with a recipe for Quince Jam, perfect for making use of those seasonal fruits. His recipe is simple, fragrant, and a lovely way to preserve autumn flavours for the months ahead. You'll find the full recipe over on the website. In the Podding Shed Back in the shed, Richard turns his attention to a timely topic — heating the greenhouse. The first step, he says, is always insulation. Bubble wrap or fleece can help trap warmth and protect plants from frost. He also uses a water butt full of water as a thermal battery, storing warmth during the day and releasing it at night. In the past, he even experimented with a compost heap for heating, inspired by the Victorians' pineapple houses — though this proved less effective in practice. When it comes to heating options, paraffin heaters can work well but bring concerns about safety and ventilation. For reliability and peace of mind, Richard now leans towards an electric greenhouse heater fitted with a thermostat to keep conditions steady without wasting energy.

Whether buying or making your own, how do you tell if compost is any good? We go deep on this question with Jason Gearheart of Integrated Elements Compost in Columbus, Indiana in this week's podcast interview. Jason honed his compost-making skills as a student of Dr. Elaine Ingham's Soil Food Web School, and now he makes a variety of products including vermicompost, biologically active compost, compost tea and more.Biologically active compost goes beyond macronutrient analysis to make sure compost has enough of the beneficial microbes to build the soil life that is so beneficial to plants. In this interview we talk about what classes of microbes we are looking for, how to identify them and how to encourage the right ones during the composting process. We also discuss the merits of different compost feedstocks, composting temperature and turning intervals, and how to know when compost is done in this exploration of one of the most important soil amendments!Connect With Guest:Website: iecompost.com Podcast Sponsors: Huge thanks to our podcast sponsors as they make this podcast FREE to everyone with their generous support: Nifty Hoops builds complete gothic high tunnels that are easy to install and built to last.

This week on The Veg Grower Podcast, I've been busy both at home in the kitchen garden and down on the allotment. Autumn is certainly upon us, and that means it's time to tidy, store, and prepare for the months ahead. Kitchen Garden Update At home, my main focus has been on checking over our stored fruit and vegetables. I always try to do this regularly – especially the ones that aren't in the freezer. Apples and pears are kept in crates in the garage where it's cool, dark, and dry, with just enough space between each fruit for airflow. It's important to remove any showing signs of rot before it spreads to the rest. The same goes for the onions in sacks and root vegetables stored in damp sand. It's a simple but vital job to keep our homegrown produce lasting right through winter. The chickens have now fully integrated into one flock, all sleeping together in the same coop, which is great to see. They're not quite laying yet, but they're certainly settled in. I've also been preparing for the colder weather by moving tender plants such as my peach, lemon, and potted grapevine into the greenhouse. The fleece is on standby in case of frost. My grapevine in the ground, though, has been incredibly productive this year, producing a mountain of dessert grapes – small but delicious. Alongside that, we're still harvesting spinach, mustards, beetroot, and cabbage, while the pumpkins and winter squash are now safely stored after a good year. Allotment Update Down on the allotment, I've been continuing the long-running task of tidying from the bottom of the plot upwards, a little at a time each visit. This week, the big project has been building a new compost bin. Using reclaimed corrugated iron from an old shed, I've bolted together panels with wooden posts to create a strong, practical bin about 1.5 metres long by 1 metre wide. It joins my existing bins, including one made from old fridge doors – not the prettiest, but it does the job! I've already begun filling the new bin with grass clippings and trimmings, and it's satisfying to see the allotment looking tidier and more productive again. Another key job this week was planting out overwintering onions, both from sets and from seed. The sets go about 5 cm deep before being backfilled and watered. They'll provide an early crop next year. It's one of those repetitive tasks that feels endless at the time but pays off later. We've also still got a few tomatoes hanging on, though blight has begun to appear on the larger varieties, so those plants have been cleared and composted. The smaller tomatoes are still ripening slowly, and we're continuing to harvest apples, pears, chillies, peppers, and late carrots. Kitchen Garden Recipe – Autumn Ratatouille This week's Recipe of the Week is my Autumn Ratatouille – a great way to use up the last of the summer harvest. It's a simple mix of onion, garlic, aubergine, courgette, peppers, and tomatoes, all gently cooked down with olive oil and herbs into a rich, warming dish. It's perfect with pasta, as a side to a roast, or even spooned onto toast with a poached egg. You'll find the full recipe on our website. In the Potting Shed Back in the shed, I've been sorting through my seed collection – a job I do every autumn. My seeds are stored in labelled boxes inside an old fridge to keep them cool, dry, and safe from mice. This week I've been checking expiry dates, removing old packets, and making a list of what I already have before I start looking through seed catalogues. It saves money and prevents duplication. Out-of-date seeds often still germinate but at a lower rate, so I donate them to local gardening charities or use them to feed the birds. If you fancy a bit of homework this week – go through your own seed collection, see what's missing, and start planning what you'd like to grow next year. It's a great way to get ahead before spring arrives.

Hey Jason,First, thank you. Your reply to America = Afghanistan was what debate used to be — informed, generous, and disarmingly human. You didn't just argue; you elevated. You said America isn't a graveyard of movements but a battleground that keeps evolving. That progress doesn't die, it sediments — layering itself into law, language, and culture. And you're right, at least partly.My essay argued that Afghanistan defeats empires not through power, but patience. It takes their money, their systems, their slogans — and outlasts them. I claimed that America does something similar with its own movements. Civil Rights, Feminism, Occupy, BLM, DEI, Climate — each storms the gates, shakes the country, gets absorbed, and eventually fades. Not through defeat, but through digestion. The system applauds, funds, and merchandises reform until it becomes part of the furniture.You called that cynicism; I call it pattern recognition.Still, I love your counterpoint — that movements compost rather than die. They decay into the civic soil and nourish what comes next. Civil rights fed feminism; feminism fed queer rights; queer rights now feed trans visibility. Progress is recursive, not reversible. It doesn't stay won, but it doesn't vanish either.Here's where I worry: compost requires gardeners. America builds landfills. Instead of letting old ideas nourish the next generation, we entomb them in marketing and bureaucracy. Feminism becomes “empowerment branding.” BLM becomes a slogan on corporate banners. Pride becomes a sponsored hashtag. We embalm activism in self-congratulation.You argue that inertia — democracy's slowness — is what saves us from tyranny. True. But inertia also preserves inequality. It cushions privilege and slows redistribution. Our institutions were designed for equilibrium, not revolution. They absorb idealism by offering symbolic wins in place of structural change.Your best line was that “we are the system.” That's the painful truth. Afghanistan's invaders leave; ours get elected. Every reformer lives inside the structure they're trying to change. We can't overthrow what we are. We fight inequality on devices made by exploited labor, on platforms profiting from outrage. Our dissent gets monetized before it matures.So maybe America isn't a graveyard or a garden — maybe it's a mausoleum with Wi-Fi. Everything that ever lived here is still visible: Civil Rights, Pride, Occupy, #MeToo — preserved, tagged, and softly lit. Nothing truly dies, but nothing truly breathes either.And yet — your optimism matters. You remind me that cynicism without hope is just moral laziness. You still believe in the slow miracle of reform, the patience of democracy, the compost of culture. Without people like you, the rest of us would drown in irony.Maybe the truth is somewhere between your garden and my graveyard — in the dirt itself, where old ideals decompose just enough to feed new ones.If Afghanistan survives by outlasting empires, America survives by arguing itself into coherence.And that argument — between faith and fatigue — might be the only proof that we're still alive.With respect and affection,Chris

Fabian Patin, a Lafayette architect whose name has become synonymous with the preservation and beautification of Rotary Point, a peaceful sanctuary on the Bayou Vermilion, joins Discover Lafayette to discuss his decades-long dedication to Lafayette's waterways and the enduring spirit of civic service that drives the Rotary Club of Lafayette. He has been a loyal member of the club for decades. Origins of Rotary Point and the Bayou Vermilion Revival Rotary Point came to life in the 1980s through a partnership among the Rotary Clubs of Lafayette, the Lafayette Chamber of Commerce, and the creation of Bayou Vermilion District. At the time, Lafayette was in the throes of the oil bust, and the once-vibrant bayou had fallen into neglect and pollution. Patin recalled how his colleague, attorney, Bob Cole, then Lafayette Chamber president, looked beyond the downturn: “Rather than worrying about it, Bob said, let's do some things to improve it. We've got a bayou; it's not the best one now, but it can be.” Cole's optimism led to the creation of a master plan for the Vermilion River. Half the funding came from private citizens and companies, the other half from the City of Lafayette. That plan inspired state legislation to create the Bayou Vermilion District, a nine-member commission—of which Fabian was an original commissioner—charged with implementing restoration and access projects. To secure federal funding under the Dingell-Johnson Act, Lafayette needed a 20 percent local match. Fabian and local leaders convinced the Parish Council to contribute the unused 400-foot right-of-way from West Bayou Parkway to the Vermilion as the local match. The federal funds, championed by then U.S. Senator John Breaux, completed the financing. Fabian recalled, "If you give us the right to use that land for our 20 percent match, that can be our 20 percent—and it worked.” How Rotary Point Got Its Name Initially conceived as a simple boat launch, the site evolved when Fabian—active in both the Bayou Vermilion District and Rotary—saw an opportunity: “If I can go to our Rotary Clubs and say, look, if we call it Rotary Point, I think I can get our clubs to pay for the overlook.” That promise birthed Rotary Point, with local Rotary Clubs funding the overlook while the Bayou Vermilion District handled access improvements. It became one of the first public boat launches on the Vermilion and a shared symbol of civic collaboration. Stewardship and Beautification Through the years, the Bayou Vermilion District has continued major maintenance—most notably replacing the aging wooden bulkhead with steel reinforcements—while the Rotary Club of Lafayette maintains and beautifies the grounds. Fabian, now 81 years of age, can still be found there almost every day: mowing, planting, spreading mulch, or supervising upgrades. The site now features benches, picnic tables, irrigation, flowering azaleas, and majestic live oaks—many planted to honor international Rotary presidents. Fabian explained how community partnerships brought the space to life: Azalea Trail volunteers donated 35 azaleas. Trees Acadiana, led by Sarah Schoeffler, provided and planted dozens of plants and live oaks. Compost from Lafayette Parish enriched the soil, coordinated by Rotarian Stan Messenger, who negotiated increased deliveries of mulch and soil for the park. Dr. Jim Rees established a Peace Pole inscribed in eight languages reading “May peace prevail on Earth.” Centennial Monument and the Sugar Mill Gears In 2020, to commemorate the Rotary Club of Lafayette's 100th anniversary, Fabian spearheaded the construction of a striking centennial monument. The centerpiece: enormous gears salvaged from historic sugar mills, a visual echo of Rotary's gear-wheel emblem. “We poured concrete on site.

Today, the dominant culture has a difficult time accepting these stories and yet we continue to tell them.We continue to need them. In this episode, I share the Celtic story  "The Adventure of Bran" and reflect on what stories like this might offer.“And there seems never to have been an uncivilized tribe, a race, or nation of civilized men who have not had some form of belief in an unseen world, peopled by unseen beings. In religions, mythologies, and the Fairy-Faith, too, we behold the attempts which have been made by different peoples in different ages to explain in terms of human experience this unseen world, its inhabitants, its laws, and man's relation to it."  --- W.Y.

Najwa Womack, founder of SiStained8 in Washington, D.C., traces her path from early nature moments to teaching compost as the art of growing soil. She defines composting in plain language, explains essentials like source-separated organics and feedstock, and tackles common myths about smell and time. Najwa connects kitchen scraps to city-scale solutions—cutting landfill methane, strengthening local soil and food, and reducing flood risk. She shares simple ways to begin at home, in schools, and with community drop-offs, outlines a vision for more three-bin and tumbler sites, and reflects on her work as a U.S. Composting Council Advocate of Compost, where national policy meets neighborhood impact.

Today, we delve into the Garden Basics archive for three segments about the importance of building your soil in the fall. We talk with America's Favorite Retired College Horticulture professor, Debbie Flower, and Sacramento's Organic Advocate, Steve Zien. We explore the vital role of nitrogen in gardening. We address a listener's concern about low nitrogen levels in soil, discussing the challenges of measurement as well as alternative testing methods. We emphasize the significance of organic amendments, such as compost and cover cropping, particularly with crops like fava beans, to enhance nitrogen levels and overall soil health. Our conversation also covers the detrimental effects of high-salt synthetic fertilizers. And, we talk about sustainable gardening practices that promote nutrient cycling and plant growth.Previous episodes, show notes, links, product information, and transcripts at the home site for Garden Basics with Farmer Fred, GardenBasics.net.

I'm in Palm Springs spending a few days with my dear friend Alison. This reminded me how much joy comes from the people we share life with. We met decades ago at NYU and bonded over what we jokingly called “compost,” a random mix from the dining hall salad bar that became our little tradition. This weekend we brought it back, laughed about those old days, and realized how something so simple still makes us smile. Being with Alison also reminded me how much relationships grow when we show up for each other. Sometimes that looks like cooking, sometimes it's running errands, and sometimes it's just sitting together while talking through what's next in life. None of it has to be perfect. It's just about being present and leaning into each other's strengths. On this week's Wise Walk, I'm inviting you to think about the people who make your to-dos feel lighter and your memories a little sweeter, and how you can bring more of that into your days right now. As you think about the week to come, who are the people you want to be surrounded by? How can you take the things on your to-do list and make them more fun by sharing them with someone that makes your heart happy? Is there someone from your past you can reconnect with by recreating a silly but memorable moment you shared together? What inside jokes, traditions, or meet-cute memories can you bring back to life because they still spark joy? How can you share those memories with friends or family so they understand where your bonds began? Who do you want to reach out to and thank for showing up in your life in such a meaningful way? Is there someone you want to catch up with over errands or simple moments so you can co-create the day together? What everyday tasks would feel more delightful if you shared them with someone you care about? Who in your life can be a great sounding board because their strengths complement yours? How can you ask for help in a way that feels vulnerable but also opens new possibilities? Who is the person you co-create with in such a vibrant way that even the mundane feels fluid and fun? How can you carve out time to nourish each other in ways that support both your present and your future? Give yourself permission to get creative, embrace the relationships that feel aligned right now, and have fun being present while sharing your gifts with others. I'd love to hear what you took away from today's episode, so feel free to reach out and share your feedback. Please tune in next Thursday for another Wise Walk. In this episode: [01:01] I'm in Palm Springs visiting my dear friend Alison. I'm realizing that much of life isn't what we do, but who we do it with. [02:01] We've known each other since NYU, and we met at the Weinstein Dining Hall. [02:55] I share the origin of our "compost" salad bar, which was whatever we could find that would be healthy and fresh in the dining hall.  [03:59] We went shopping and created "compost". Reliving this memory from the past brought us joy. [05:05] Do you have an absolute sweet memory from your past that you would like to create, because it brings you joy? [06:22] I've also bonded over dancing with another friend. [07:27] Thank you for prioritizing relationships, because nothing can grow without effort, time, and understanding. [08:46] The other big takeaway from this weekend with Alison was the idea of being present. We are connected and get caught up when it matters. [10:07] I love that when you're in a relationship that's been around for a while, you can be present no matter what you're doing. [11:57]  Another thing that surfaced is how Alison and I were talking about acknowledging each other's strengths. We share in ways that we can nourish each other. [13:30] We also did some planning about where I'm going and what my financial possibilities may be. She helped me create a spreadsheet and scenario plan. [14:24] Knowing what's possible will help me plan better. [16:27] When we ask for help and tap into each other's strengths and gifts, we can be thoughtful and productive. [18:41] You can also do this with yourself.

Send Catherine a text Message"We are all taking everything that we've learned from the past, and we're reformulating what we want to do with that and how we want to live. And so, one of the ideas that's embedded in that, for me, is that when you're in this period of history, like we are now, with AI and with the digitization of everything and with the resurgence of a fascist movement, everything is up for grabs. You know, anything can happen, and that's the whole point really, that we have agency in this moment to affect what direction things are going to go in, as bricoleurs." --- Rags RosenbergA special interview episode with poet and performing songwriter Rags Rosenberg. Rags writes what he calls mythopoetic folk rock in the tradition of songwriter poets he admires: Leonard Cohen, Bob, Dylan, and Tom Waits. His latest album Song of the Bricoleur speaks about myth and our ongoing myth-making. We talk about artistic identity and guiding images, the role of the artist in dark times, and "making it up as we go."In times of profound cultural change, we're all bricoleurs. Support the showEmail Catherine at drcsvehla@mythicmojo.comPost a positive review on apple podcasts!
