The Context of White Supremacy hosts the weekly Compensatory Call-In 12/27/25. We encourage non-white listeners to dial in with their codified concepts, new terms, observations, research findings, workplace problems or triumphs, and/or suggestions on how best to Replace White Supremacy With Justice ASAP. This weekly broadcast examines current events from across the globe to learn what's happening in all areas of people activity. We cultivate Counter-Racist Media Literacy by scrutinizing journalists' word choices and using logic to deconstruct what is reported as "news." We'll use these sessions to hone our use of terms as tools to reveal truth, neutralize Racists/White people. #ANTIBLACKNESS Headed into the final weekend of 2025, President Donald J. Trump launched an attack on the area of the world known as Nigeria. Pres. Trump chose December 25th as the appropriate day to announce coordinated violence against the "ISIS Terrorist Scum" who've alleged hounded Christians (White people?) for years. Nigeria is one area of the world Gus has encouraged non-white people to study because of their enormous population of black people - which is exponentially increasing. We'll also review a recently released reports that suggests teenagers who consume even a small amount of cannabis experience decreased academic performance. This contradicts what many C.O.W.S.'s listeners insisted when they disputed Dr. Frances Cress Welsing, medical doctor, for discouraging cannabis consumption. #EndStageWhiteSupremacy #NoTHCForTeens # INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#
The Context of White Supremacy (C.O.W.S.) Radio Program hosts the weekly summit on Neutralizing Workplace Racism 12/25/25 Once again, RacistMan & RacistWoman do not take holidays, and neither does Gus T. Hopefully, most Victims of Racism are not required to work the plantation for White Jesus's birthday. After avoiding or briefly attending tacky holiday functions, we'll get back to the business of Producing Justice. Gus was especially intrigued by the case of Janique Sanders, a black female who was terminated from her position at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. She alleges that she was fired in response to her recorded answer to a query about "DEI" at the school. Sanders reportedly told a member of "Accuracy in Media" that the university has reconfigured their "DEI" policy to comply with Pres. Trump's new mandates. The school allegedly investigated this exchange and terminated Sanders' employment. Gus is curious to know if her response violated policy and procedure and if there is a school-mandated position on how employees should respond to questions about the school's DEI position. #NoHolidaysForRacists INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#
For decades, leadership meant position: titles, layers, authority flowing downward. That model survived generations of management theory—but AI is dismantling it faster than most organizations realize. As automation absorbs middle management functions and teams flatten, leadership no longer comes from the org chart. It emerges from trust, psychological safety, and the ability to guide without control.Cedric and I explore how leadership is shifting from ladder to lattice, why younger generations demand clarity without micromanagement, and how learning, unlearning, and relearning have become survival skills—not growth perks. We dig into why performance without empathy burns people out, why transparency matters more than trust alone, and how leaders who can regulate themselves create teams that move faster, experiment more, and fail forward without fear.The takeaway isn't that leadership disappears—it evolves. From command-and-control to influence-without-authority. From perfection to iteration. From managing people to creating environments where people lead themselves.No nostalgia. No AI panic. Just a grounded roadmap for leaders navigating the post-AI reality.TL;DR* Hierarchy is eroding: AI collapses management layers—leadership becomes informal and horizontal.* Position ≠ influence: Future leaders are followed by choice, not title.* Ladder → lattice: Careers move sideways before up; growth isn't linear anymore.* Empathy scales performance: Psychological safety drives speed, creativity, and retention.* Learn–unlearn–relearn: AI shortens the cycle; leaders must evolve faster than systems.* Clarity creates confidence: Context + expectations beat control every time.* Transparency > trust: Explaining the why builds deeper alignment than directives.* Failure is data: Teams grow when mistakes don't equal punishment.Memorable lines* “Leadership doesn't disappear when hierarchy fades—it becomes visible.”* “AI removes managers, not the need for leadership.”* “Clarity builds confidence; confusion builds fear.”* “Trust tells people what—transparency tells them why.”* “You can't automate empathy—but you can scale it through culture.”GuestCedric B. Howard — Founder & CEO of Howard Executive Consulting; former higher-education administrator; leadership educator specializing in empathy, strategy, and organizational resilience.

Christmas Eve Stakes and a Narrow Path The Detroit Lions fly to Minneapolis with a slim, real path. Win at the Vikings on Christmas. Win at the Bears in Chicago. Hope the Packers lose out. That is the math. It is not pretty, but it exists. The other motivator is pride. Going from the best record in the NFC last year to the basement in the NFC North will not sit well with Dan Campbell or his locker room. The Lions are favored. They should play like a team with playoff vitality. Context matters in December in the NFL. Detroit needs urgency and clean execution. The margin is small. The opponent is wounded, not harmless. Vikings Quarterback Shuffle: Max Brosmer Time Minnesota ruled out JJ McCarthy on Tuesday afternoon. A hairline fracture in his hand ends his season. In comes Max Brosmer. He is an undrafted rookie with one start and mop-up reps. He has an arm and workable accuracy. He lost to the Seahawks, which happens to many. He is not Aaron Rodgers or Matthew Stafford. He is not even a fully healthy Jordan Love. That is a reprieve for a Detroit defense that has seen a run of top quarterbacks. The Vikings are battered elsewhere. Christian Darrisaw, their left tackle, is out. They have shut players down after elimination, similar to how the Lions just shut down Kirby Joseph. The depth chart is thin, but the skill talent around Brosmer still gives structure. Detroit must turn those absences into pressure and turnovers. A Defense That Hasn't Allowed a Passing TD in Six Games Here is the problem for the Lions offense. The Vikings have not allowed a passing touchdown in six straight games. That is the first time a team has done it since the 1989 Browns. This is a legit unit. They blitzed the Lions to great effect in the first meeting. They hammered the A gap. They made life hard for Jared Goff. Detroit's passing game has been inconsistent. Goff has been pretty good, but the interior pass protection must be better. Answers versus the A-gap pressure are non-negotiable. Quick decisions. Firm guards and center. Defined hot routes. Detroit Lions Podcast coverage this week centers on interior protection, blitz answers, and a battered Vikings offense. If the Lions cannot block inside, points will be scarce again. What It Means in Minneapolis and Beyond This sets up a grind. Expect Detroit to lean on pass rush against a backup left tackle and an inexperienced quarterback. Expect Minnesota to heat up Goff and test Detroit's A-gap integrity. Field position matters. So do red zone calls when passing touchdowns are hard to find. Win, and the Lions keep the playoff thread intact and roll into Chicago with purpose. Lose, and last place looms. The formula is simple. Protect the pocket inside. Tackle after the catch. Finish drives with touchdowns. It is Christmas in the NFL. Style points can wait. The Lions need a road win to keep the season alive. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7n9Z9vYgPU #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #a-gappressure #interiorpassprotection #jaredgoff #maxbrosmer #jjmccarthy #christiandarrisaw #backuplefttackle #undraftedrookie #sixstraightgames #passingtouchdown Learn more about your ad choices.

The Context of White Supremacy welcomes Cody McDevitt. A White Man and award winning journalist, McDevitt is a Pennsylvania resident and the founder of the Rosedale Oral History Project. Last week, Gus T. spoke with Dr. Emily Leib last week, and she told us that her White grandparents are Beaver County residents. Gus checked immediately, and, of course, Beaver County is a Racially Restricted Region of western Pennsylvania - which Dr. Leib seemed to already know. Upon further investigation, Gus found out that Racists purged a group of black people from this region in 1933. A tad south, Racists in Johnstown also kicked out their population of dark people a decade earlier. McDevitt penned Banished from Johnstown: Racist Backlash in Pennsylvania. This book reveals much about the System of White Supremacy and what it means to be classified as White. Interestingly, so called Mexicans were also told to “beat it” along with the niggras. However, there was intervention on their behalf that was not extended to black people. Pay particular attention to Mr. McDevitt's response to Gus's definition of Racism and his constant references to other non-white people's books and views on Racism. This includes Isabel Wilkerson's abomination Caste (#2ndWorstBookEver). #BlackGetBack #RaciallyRestrictedRegions INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#
Send us a textOn this "take two" episode (after a technical mishap lost the first recording), Scott and Mike welcome back Jeff Cutter, founder of WIITT Selling (What Is Important To Them). Jeff breaks down the fundamental flaw in most sales processes: the obsession with our decks, our products, and our preparation, while completely ignoring the customer's narrative.Jeff shares how this mindset shift started early—selling his neighbors not on a mowed lawn, but on the freedom to ride their bikes on the weekend. The trio discusses why sales reps often get stuck at the "context level" (activities, features, specs) and fail to reach the "emotional level" where decisions are actually made.Key Takeaways:Define WIITT: It stands for What Is Important To Them. If you don't know the specific problem and the emotion attached to it, you are just guessing.The "Context" Trap: Most CRMs are filled with "activities" (sent email, had meeting), but lack intelligence on the actual problem. You need to move from "What are you doing?" to "How does this problem make you feel?"Co-Author the Story: Don't hijack the conversation with your own pitch. Use mirroring and emotional labeling to stay in the customer's story until you uncover the root cause.The Jeep Theory: Citing Clotaire Rapaille, Jeff explains that customers often lie (unintentionally) about what they want (e.g., safety), when they truly buy based on a deeper emotional code (e.g., freedom/open road).Guest Resources: Check out Jeff's free guide, "Stop Guessing, Take Control of Your CRM Intelligence" at wiittselling.com.Support the showScott SchlofmanMike Williams - Cell 801-635-7773 #sales #podcast #customerfirst #relationships #success #pipeline #funnel #sales success #selling #salescoach

The Epstein estate tried to shut down the lawsuit Ghislaine Maxwell filed against it by arguing that her claims were legally baseless and strategically opportunistic. Maxwell had sued the estate seeking reimbursement for legal fees and protection she claimed Epstein had promised her, but the executors countered that no such binding agreement existed. They portrayed her demand for indemnification as both speculative and self-serving, especially given her criminal conviction and the mountain of evidence tying her to Epstein's trafficking operation. In their view, Maxwell was attempting to shift responsibility for her own conduct onto a dead man's estate that already faced enormous financial pressure from survivor settlements and ongoing litigation.To reinforce their position, the estate argued that Maxwell's lawsuit was essentially an effort to rewrite history—attempting to cast herself as someone entitled to Epstein's financial shield despite her central role in enabling his crimes. They emphasized that the estate had no obligation to fund her defense, especially when her actions were outside the scope of any legitimate employment or partnership and were, instead, criminal in nature. The executors also noted that satisfying Maxwell's claims would siphon money away from compensation intended for survivors, contradicting the estate's publicly stated commitments. Ultimately, their motion to dismiss framed Maxwell's lawsuit as a legally flimsy maneuver designed to grab resources she was never owed and to distance herself from the consequences of her own conduct.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

In this episode of Context, we explore the historical, philosophical, and ethical implications of artificial intelligence, drawing on examples from world history, literature, and modern AI research. We examine pivotal moments in the history of technology—from Ming China's abandonment of oceanic exploration 600 years ago to the Cold War's embrace of nuclear power 60 years ago—to frame the long-term liabilities of technological progress. This episode culminates in a simple but haunting idea: the greatest risk of artificial intelligence may not be the violent destruction of humanity, but its painless euthanasia. Not a civilization wiped out by its inventions, but one that trades the ordeal of being human for the ease of being entertained into extinction. History's rule is progress. But progress for its own sake has never been humanity's purpose. Purpose has to be chosen by every generation. If AI can make everything infinitely easy, it may also make everything infinitely meaningless. This episode asks whether we are willing to keep choosing struggle, curiosity, and wonder—or whether we're prepared to outsource meaning itself, and quietly accept The Great Silence that follows.

Episode 155 – Back in Charge: Rice Anchors Arsenal's Away-Day ResponseArsenal return to winning ways with a controlled, professional 1–0 victory at Everton — a result that mattered as much for how it was done as the points themselves.Declan Rice sets the tone with a commanding midfield performance as Arsenal quieten Goodison Park, manage pressure moments, and reassert their standards away from home. We break down the structure, the control, and why the scoreline flattered Everton more than it reflected the performance.We discuss Ødegaard's role, Arsenal's chance creation and wastefulness, the penalty decisions, and whether this felt like a genuine reset after recent noise. There's also analysis on Rice's influence, Calafiori's impact, and why this was a quietly important win.In part two, we whip around the grounds, dive into another busy VAR weekend, address the Arteta contract noise, and look ahead to the Carabao Cup clash with Crystal Palace — including rotation, priorities, and what Arteta might do next.Control restored.

In this episode of The Defiant Podcast, Uniswap founder Hayden Adams joins us right as the UNIfication (Unification) proposal has moved to a final governance vote—a sweeping plan from Uniswap Labs + the Uniswap Foundation that would activate protocol fees, introduce a programmatic UNI burn, and realign how value accrues across the Uniswap ecosystem. We go deep on what's actually inside the proposal (and what isn't), why this moment feels like the end of one DeFi era and the start of another, and how years of “regulation by enforcement” shaped Uniswap's product decisions—down to Hayden's firsthand experience with debanking, legal pressure, and the chilling effect on builders. What we coverWhy UNIfication is being pitched as a once-in-a-cycle reset for UniswapThe real mechanics of the fee switch(es) (plural) and how the “token jar” burn design worksThe perceived tension between UNI token holders vs. equity/VC value capture and whether this vote changes thatWhy Uniswap wants to shift from “best frontend” to protocol-first infrastructure (APIs, ecosystem engineering, aggregator hooks)How Unichain fits into the broader strategy—and what “near-free trading” could mean in practiceGovernance backlash: is Uniswap becoming more centralized or more decentralized?Context: the vote is live! Hayden shared that the UNIfication proposal is now in the final governance vote stage.Subscribe for more founder-level conversations at the intersection of DeFi, regulation, and market structure.

Also in Washington state, Steven Goldstine was sentenced to 5 years in greater confinement for detonating a pipe bomb near a black couple's vehicle on New Year's Eve 2024. A father-son duo are accused of a mass shooting attack at Australia's Bondi Beach, leaving 15 people people deceased. Initial reports attribute the attack to the so-called Islamic State. Here in the US, a group of terrorists was arrested for plotting a New Year's Eve bombing attack to announce their "anti-capitalist," "anti-government" beliefs. Affiliates of this group were arrested in California and Louisiana. And Bay Area residents continue to mourn the passing of the beloved albino reptile, Claude. To honor the deceased mutant, San Francisco residents plan to name a street after Claude. Gus can imagine having a toilet or trash can named for him. #EndStageWhiteSupremacy #INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the weekly summit on Neutralizing Workplace Racism 12/18/25 The New York Times printed a column discussing the trauma of being at an office holiday party. Liquor consumption was the main culprit - and unruly White behavior. The NYT recommended no more than 2 drinks at the office party - alongside a bevy of constructive reasons for limited alcohol intake amongst co-workers. Gus T. recommends remaining sober for the entire event. It is massively important to be 100% when in the company of your colleagues. Interestingly, 'Bay Area Mom' reported that her colleagues consumed cannabis on the rooftop during their holiday office shindig. Apparently, children were present for this event. Additionally, Gus was stunned to read Milwaukee's WISN to find that a black male bus driver was falsely accused of operating a school bus while intoxicated. Joel Sills, a privileged black father of 3, was, ordered from the bus, publicly humiliated, and forced to take a breathalyzer - which he passed. #BeaverCounty INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#
How to Write Catchy Titles, Descriptions, and High-Impact Headlines for your websites, email marketing, social media marketing, Pinterest SEO, and more with Favour Obasi-Ike | Sign up for exclusive SEO insights.Episode Summary:In this comprehensive episode + guide on crafting effective digital headlines, titles, and descriptions to boost online engagement. The speaker emphasizes that metadata acts as the essential context for content, serving as the primary factor that drives click-through rates across platforms like Google, YouTube, and LinkedIn. Strategic advice includes maintaining a title length of approximately 55 to 65 characters to avoid text truncation while maximizing visual impact. I also recommend using odd numbers, brackets, and power words to leverage psychological triggers that improve visibility and user trust. Finally, the discussion frames intentional copywriting as a vital tool for business owners to transform passive web traffic into active conversions and long-term brand authority.In high-level digital strategy, titles, descriptions, and headlines are not merely decorative—they serve as the essential "key frames" of metadata. This content architecture bridges the gap between raw information and audience discovery by providing the necessary context (Author, Host, Duration, and Intent) that search algorithms require to categorize an asset. By transforming raw content into searchable, high-value assets, a strategist ensures that the brand is prioritized within the user's search journey.Favour emphasizes that structured delivery and architectural integrity correlate directly to business results. If a title fails to establish immediate relevance, the conversion path is broken before it begins. Success in the current landscape requires a commitment to iterative improvement—ensuring the "next version" of a title or metadata set is systematically optimized based on data rather than intuition. This log details the tactical framework used by Favour, currently ranked #2 (We Don't PLAY!) on the FeedSpot Top 100 Marketing Podcasts (trailing only Gary Vaynerchuk), to drive visibility across SEO, PPC, and email ecosystems.Deep Dive: The Quantitative Science of Click-Through Rates (CTR)To maximize ROI, content creators must move beyond "gut feeling" and toward research-backed optimization. Using industry benchmarks from Orbit Media and Moz, we can calibrate headlines to meet the psychological triggers that drive user action.-------------------------------------------------------------------------Next Steps for Digital Marketing + SEO Services:>> Need SEO Services?

The following log segments the Masterclass into thematic chapters, providing the "So What?" factor for each strategic shift.Chapters:Chapter 1: The Metadata Framework [00:00 - 10:00] Context vs. Content. This segment establishes that metadata is the "context" (attributes like host and duration) that allows users to value an asset before engaging. Without these key frames, even high-quality content remains invisible to search engines and the "Exact Searcher Intent."Chapter 2: The Utility of Catchy Copy [10:00 - 18:00] Visibility Across the Funnel. Effective copy acts as the primary catalyst for Click-Through Rates (CTR) across SEO, LinkedIn, and Email. The speaker frames catchy titles as functional tools that pre-condition the audience for engagement and conversion.Chapter 3: The Physics of the Pixel [18:00 - 25:00] Typography Weight. Moving beyond character counts, this chapter introduces the 600-pixel display limit. Strategists must account for the "weight" of individual characters (e.g., a capital "W" vs. a lowercase "l") to prevent truncation and maintain a professional aesthetic on the SERP (Search Engine Results Page).Chapter 4: The Psychology of Numbers [25:00 - 35:00] Time-Value Perception. This section evaluates how numbers (specifically odd numbers) impact user psychology. The "So What?" factor is the "minute-per-item" rule: users subconsciously equate the number of items in a title to the minutes they must invest (e.g., 10 ways = 10 minutes), directly influencing the decision to click.Chapter 5: Platform Evolution [35:00 - 45:00] Ecosystem Logic. The speaker analyzes Instagram's transition to "TV-style" content and LinkedIn's rigid SEO URL logic. The key takeaway is the importance of "Exact Title Match" to meet user intent while navigating platform-specific constraints like DM automation and hashtag limits.Chapter 6: The Podcasting Marathon [45:00 - End] The Milestone Logic. Highlighting the "eighth-episode hurdle" where 500,000 creators quit annually, the speaker discusses his 600-episode milestone and the necessity of IAB Tech Lab compliance. Long-term distribution success is a result of persistence and technical "due diligence."High-Value Quotes"Metadata... that's just another way of saying how do we get context out of this content. Those are attributes... that's the context to the content." - Favour Obasi-ike"A capital W has more weight than a small w.

Money, Happiness, and the Race You're Actually Running as a Clinic Owner Episode Overview In this episode, Danny shares his favorite book of the year — The Art of Spending Money by Morgan Housel — and why it hit so hard as a cash-based business owner. He breaks down how money, attention, and expectations shape your happiness, why comparison quietly wrecks clinic owners, and how to use your business as a vehicle for the life you actually want instead of letting it become your whole identity. Key Topics Covered Why money mindset is such a big problem in the PT profession Why Danny recommends Morgan Housel's books to clinic owners "May I Have Your Attention Please?" – how attention drives happiness The danger of comparing your clinic to someone else's revenue Context you never see behind other people's success "The Happiest People I Know" – business as vehicle vs. business as life Trading time for money vs. protecting what matters most Lifestyle creep and constantly moving the goalposts Defining the race you're running and saying no on purpose Why "no thank you" money is real wealth Book Recommendation: The Art of Spending Money Danny highlights The Art of Spending Money by Morgan Housel as his favorite book of the year and a perfect follow-up to Housel's earlier book, The Psychology of Money. While the title sounds like a pure finance book, Danny and his wife both felt it's really about: How you make decisions around money How those decisions impact your happiness and contentment How self-awareness around money affects your quality of life For clinic owners, it's especially relevant because you're: Charging for your own services Paying staff and managing payroll Using money as a tool for growth, security, and freedom Attention, Comparison, and Feeling Miserable Danny breaks down a section from the book called "May I Have Your Attention Please?", which focuses on how your attention influences your happiness. Example: Your clinic is doing ~$500k a year. You're profitable, love your niche, and like your team and culture. Then you meet another owner doing $2M a year. If you put all your attention on that comparison, you go from proud to deflated in seconds: "I'm behind." "I must be doing something wrong." But you have no idea: What advantages they had going in (investors, family help, safety nets) What trade-offs they made (health, marriage, time with kids) Whether they'd actually trade lives with you If they're at $2M but wrecked their health and relationships, while you're at $500k with strong health and a solid home life, who's really winning? It depends on your values. The point: if you want to stay miserable, keep comparing yourself to everyone else. Business as Vehicle vs. Business as Your Whole Life Danny then shifts to another section: "The Happiest People I Know." The big idea: Your business should be the vehicle that supports the life you want. Most owners accidentally let the business become their life. He gives a simple comparison: Owner A: Works 60 hours/week, makes $300k. Owner B: Works 30 hours/week, makes $200k. Neither is right or wrong. It depends on your season of life and what you value more: extra money or extra time. Questions to ask: Do I want the extra $100k badly enough to trade 30 more hours a week? What am I saying "no" to when I say "yes" to more growth? Is this growth actually changing my life in a meaningful way? Lifestyle Creep and Moving the Goalposts Danny explains how success usually comes with two hidden traps: Lifestyle creep: As you earn more, your spending grows to match. Constantly moving the goalposts: Every time you hit one target, you immediately raise the bar. Result: you feel like you always have to keep saying yes to more growth, more risk, and more time in the business just to sustain a lifestyle you drifted into. Instead, he challenges clinic owners to: Define a clear income and lifestyle goal on purpose. Live below that level even as income grows. Build "no thank you" money – enough margin to say no to opportunities that don't fit. Run Your Own Race Danny uses a running analogy he often shares with PT Biz clients: If you're running a 10K and someone else is running a marathon, your paces and training look different. You can't compare your numbers and expect them to match. In business: Some owners just want one great clinic that they keep for decades. Others want a multi-location platform they eventually sell. Neither is better. But if you don't know which race you're running, you'll: Say yes to things that pull you away from what matters most. End up living a life you never intentionally chose. Big Takeaways Money is a tool, not a scoreboard. Your attention determines how happy or miserable you feel about your progress. Success without alignment can feel like a trap. Define your race, your goals, and your trade-offs on purpose. Real wealth is the ability to say "no" and still be fine.

The Context of White Supremacy welcomes Emily Lieb. Classified as a White Woman, Lieb is a historian “of U.S. cities, schools, and segregation” and a Brown University graduate. There's currently a manhunt in search of the shooter from this weekend's attack at the ivy league school, we'll be sure to ask her thoughts on the most recent school shooting. Lieb was featured at Seattle's Elliott Bay Book Store earlier this autumn, where she discussed her brand new book Road To Nowhere: How A Highway Map Wrecked Baltimore. This text details how Whites in Baltimore deliberately brutalized black homeowners in the Rosemont region of the city. Black buyers were routinely overcharged for the minuscule housing reserved for black people. Much of Lieb's work strongly enforces that White people are not ignorant about the System of White Supremacy. There are even a few passages where Whites reveal they lie by pretending to be ignorant about Racism.

The Epstein estate tried to shut down the lawsuit Ghislaine Maxwell filed against it by arguing that her claims were legally baseless and strategically opportunistic. Maxwell had sued the estate seeking reimbursement for legal fees and protection she claimed Epstein had promised her, but the executors countered that no such binding agreement existed. They portrayed her demand for indemnification as both speculative and self-serving, especially given her criminal conviction and the mountain of evidence tying her to Epstein's trafficking operation. In their view, Maxwell was attempting to shift responsibility for her own conduct onto a dead man's estate that already faced enormous financial pressure from survivor settlements and ongoing litigation.To reinforce their position, the estate argued that Maxwell's lawsuit was essentially an effort to rewrite history—attempting to cast herself as someone entitled to Epstein's financial shield despite her central role in enabling his crimes. They emphasized that the estate had no obligation to fund her defense, especially when her actions were outside the scope of any legitimate employment or partnership and were, instead, criminal in nature. The executors also noted that satisfying Maxwell's claims would siphon money away from compensation intended for survivors, contradicting the estate's publicly stated commitments. Ultimately, their motion to dismiss framed Maxwell's lawsuit as a legally flimsy maneuver designed to grab resources she was never owed and to distance herself from the consequences of her own conduct.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Are you looking to save time, make money, and start winning with less risk? Then head to https://www.ovtlyr.com.The market feels wild right now. Red candles everywhere, headlines screaming “crash,” and everyone suddenly acting like they can predict the future. This video cuts through all of that noise and breaks down what actually happens during market crashes, using real historical data instead of fear, hype, or internet bravado.Instead of guessing, this walkthrough looks at every major market crash going all the way back to 1929 and shows something most investors completely miss. Nearly every crash follows the same structural setup. The problem is not that people do not have information. The problem is they react emotionally instead of following a repeatable process.You will see exactly how the 10 EMA, 20 EMA, and 50 MA behave before major selloffs like 1929, 1987, 2000, 2008, and 2020. The charts do not lie. When price and trend line up the wrong way, risk explodes. When they stabilize, opportunity shows up.This is not a “buy the dip and pray” conversation. In fact, blind dip buying is one of the fastest ways investors destroy their own wealth. Timing matters. Structure matters. Context matters. Crashes are not random events. They are patterns that repeat with different outcomes.Halfway through the video, the conversation shifts from pure chart analysis to something more important. How to protect yourself from people selling dreams instead of results. There is a big difference between trading and marketing, and this video makes that line very clear.Here is what you will take away from this breakdown:✅ Why nearly every major crash starts with the same trend setup✅ How the 10, 20, and 50 moving averages act as early warning signals✅ Why the same signal can appear multiple times without causing a crash✅ How emotional dip buying quietly wipes out long-term returns✅ What separates real risk management from internet noiseThe most important lesson is simple. Crashes are not flaws in the market. They are part of the system. Once you understand that, fear turns into preparation. Preparation turns into confidence. Confidence turns into better decisions.This video also explains why studying crashes from decades ago still matters today. Even recent events like the 2020 pandemic crash and the 2025 tariff-driven selloff followed the same structural behavior. Different headlines. Same mechanics.If your goal is to stop reacting, stop guessing, and start understanding what the market is actually doing, this breakdown will change how you look at price forever. No predictions. No hype. Just patterns, probabilities, and disciplined thinking.Watch closely, study the examples, and take notes. The next major move will not feel random once you know what to look for.Gain instant access to the AI-powered tools and behavioral insights top traders use to spot big moves before the crowd.

The Context of White Supremacy welcomes Camilo Eugenio Lund-Montaño live from Puerto Rico. Gus intends to find out right quick of Lund-Montaño is classified as a White person. White reading Evelyn Williams' Inadmissible Evidence in the Katherine Massey Book Club, Gus was struck by her commentary on the influx of White lawyers during the so called Civil Rights Movement. Williams was suspicious of their presence and wondered if their primary objective was to bolster their White reputations by representing “militant” negroes or if they were in some way connected to the widespread COINTELPRO campaigns of subversion to undermine attempts to Produce Justice. This led Gus to find Lund-Montaño's report: Out of Order: Radical Lawyers and Social Movements in the Cold War. This work examines the history of mostly White lawyers involvements with numerous non-white people and campaigns during the 1900s. It highlights how the National Lawyer's Guild, the American Bar Association, and the field of law in general was - and remains - overwhelmingly White and insufficiently concerned with countering Racism or aiding non-white attorneys and judges. It's noteworthy that NLG switched their focus to issues of sexism/White Women in the middle of the so called Civil Rights Movement. Nigh on 2026, White females are the growing majority of law school students, while black dudes represent one of the tiniest groups allowed to practice law. #RevJimJones #DrMarcusFoster INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#
In this episode we answer emails from JT, Phil, and Glenn. We revel in the updates to the TestFolio tools, weigh how tilting toward small cap value can lift safe withdrawal rates but also reduces overall diversification, return to KBWP and how property and casualty insurance companies can provide value-tilted diversification, and discuss the tracking results reported on the About page at the website.Links:Testfolio 5% Withdrawal Backtest Comparison: testfol.io/?s=74fuq6N5WWdTestfolio Comparison of SCV, LCG, LCV and SCG: testfol.io/?s=4eqimbZveGXWeird Portfolio: Weird Portfolio – Portfolio ChartsTestfolio KWBP and BRK-B Analysis: testfol.io/analysis?s=l34pkinSxdeFund Seeder Tracker Site: FundSeeder - Empowering Top Traders with Capital and InsightsBreathless Unedited AI-Bot Summary:Ready to push past rules of thumb and actually pressure-test a retirement portfolio? We dig into how far a DIY investor can tilt toward small cap value to raise a safe withdrawal rate, what history really shows across 30- and 50-year windows, and why correlation—not bravado—decides whether you can keep spending through ugly markets. Using new Testfolio features with 100-year factor data, we compare the Golden Ratio and Golden Butterfly against more value-heavy mixes and pinpoint where the extra “cowbell” helps and where it just adds stress.We also open a less-traveled door inside equities: property and casualty insurers. Whether you own them through KBWP or direct index the top names, this sleeve has delivered rare intra-equity diversification, often keeping pace with broad markets while zigging in years like 2022. We share the practical trade-offs—expense ratios vs. tracking error, simplicity vs. tax loss harvesting—and explain when the ETF is the smarter, lower-hassle choice. If you already own Berkshire Hathaway for your value core, you'll hear why insurers can complement or substitute without bloating overlap.Context matters, so we pull back the curtain on our publicly tracked taxable account and why it can look extreme in a bad year and strong in a good one. The whole-portfolio view is far steadier, closer to a risk parity blend of stocks, long treasuries, and diversifiers like gold and managed futures. The takeaway: if you want a withdrawal rate you can live with, build for multiple regimes—blend small cap value and large cap growth, keep long bonds for deflation shocks, and add real diversifiers that cut correlation when you need it most.

In this special episode, Nancey revisits a conversation from season one of the show, where she sat down with feminist art scholar, filmmaker, and community organizer, Lizette London. In that episode, Lizette talked about how romance, sexuality and film have influenced both her waking life as well as her dreams. Nancey, who at that time was questioning her own sexual identity, opens up about her journey and how that conversation helped break down the rigid walls surrounding her identity. **NOTE: The show is taking a break next week, but be ready for a new episode on Wednesday, December 31!**Follow Lavandula on IG: @lalchouse Follow the Show on IG: @dreamingincolorpodFollow Nancey on IG @nanceybprice and TikTok @nanceybpriceVisit Nancey's Website: www.nanceybprice.comMusic by Omar Faruque from Pixabay
The Epstein estate tried to shut down the lawsuit Ghislaine Maxwell filed against it by arguing that her claims were legally baseless and strategically opportunistic. Maxwell had sued the estate seeking reimbursement for legal fees and protection she claimed Epstein had promised her, but the executors countered that no such binding agreement existed. They portrayed her demand for indemnification as both speculative and self-serving, especially given her criminal conviction and the mountain of evidence tying her to Epstein's trafficking operation. In their view, Maxwell was attempting to shift responsibility for her own conduct onto a dead man's estate that already faced enormous financial pressure from survivor settlements and ongoing litigation.To reinforce their position, the estate argued that Maxwell's lawsuit was essentially an effort to rewrite history—attempting to cast herself as someone entitled to Epstein's financial shield despite her central role in enabling his crimes. They emphasized that the estate had no obligation to fund her defense, especially when her actions were outside the scope of any legitimate employment or partnership and were, instead, criminal in nature. The executors also noted that satisfying Maxwell's claims would siphon money away from compensation intended for survivors, contradicting the estate's publicly stated commitments. Ultimately, their motion to dismiss framed Maxwell's lawsuit as a legally flimsy maneuver designed to grab resources she was never owed and to distance herself from the consequences of her own conduct.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

We discuss Shonen Jump manga Jumbor Barutronica. MAL Description: It was 3002, and the human civilization had crumbled and rebuilt itself again and again over the thousand years, despite the destruction and challenge brought by the harsh nature. In this era of constant war against nature and havoc, construction teams were the star of the economy system, the conquering force as well as a weapon themselves, because heavy robots were used in construction works to speed up efficiency. Jumbor was the leader of a famous construction team of a little country with a cute princess. One day, as their group was about to start the reconstruction work of a tunnel which was destroyed by an earthquake, a much more powerful construction team arrived and claimed the land in no time, killing Jumbor who tried to protect his teammates against the cruel opponents... Jumbor woke up in 3007, finding himself revived in his own clone body (memory transplanted) which has a physical age of 5 years old, and in addition to that, his body was partly mechanized. His robot arms are linked up to and directly controlled by his brain's signals. He was told that the country had gone and the princess and the king disappeared, and he discovered that his mechanized body is very powerful. He was also told he was 'last of the series.

Notes Matthew 1:18-25 Isaiah 7:10-16 Romans 1:1-7 Summary In this episode of the Pulpit Fiction Podcast, hosts Robb and Eric discuss the readings for the fourth Sunday of Advent, focusing on Matthew 1:18-25, Isaiah 7:10-16, and Romans 1:1-7. They explore the significance of Joseph's role in the birth of Jesus, the prophetic message of Isaiah regarding Emmanuel, and the implications of Paul's letter to the Romans. The conversation emphasizes themes of faith, the importance of trusting in God, and the call to action for believers during the Advent season. Takeaways The birth of Jesus is a significant event in the Gospel of Matthew, focusing on Joseph's role. Joseph's righteousness is highlighted as he chooses compassion over the law. Isaiah's prophecy about Emmanuel emphasizes God's presence with us. Advent is a time of waiting and preparation, calling for active faith. The third way of trusting in God amidst challenges is crucial. The names of Jesus carry deep meaning and significance. Paul's letter to the Romans connects the promise of God to all people. The role of adoptive fathers is an important theme in the narrative. Faith in God calls us to action and advocacy for justice. The conversation encourages a deeper understanding of scripture and its application.

Aftermath and the Atomic Context — James M. Scott — LeMay expresses relief upon receiving operational reports confirming the firebombing raid's success with surprisingly low American aircrew casualties relative to predictions. Scottdocuments that the single raid systematically destroys nearly 16 square miles of Tokyo and kills over 100,000 civilians, a death toll exceeding the firebombing destruction of Dresden or Hamburg in European theaters. Scott explains that following this catastrophic success, LeMay systematically implements a comprehensive campaign systematically incinerating Japan's major cities, eventually exhausting prime targets and proceeding to secondary and tertiary urban centers before the atomic bomb is even tested and deployed. Scott notes that LeMay privately believes that the atomic bomb ultimately overshadows and obscures the conventional bombing campaign's pivotal military contribution to systematically destroying Japan's industrial capability and civilian capacity to sustain military resistance.
