While wild animals—from horses roaming the free range to seals, sea lions, and walruses—are a beloved part of American culture and identity, the federal agencies that protect these animals must also kill them. To prevent overpopulation and intrusion onto other wildlife, these agencies must conduct “removals,” i.e. coordinated and deliberate killings of animals. This responsibility that creates an inherent tension between preserving ecological collectives and protecting the well-being of individual animals underlies Professor Natalie Jacewicz's piece, "Crafting a New Conservationism." On today's episode, Professor Jacewicz—an Assistant Professor of Law at the University of San Diego School of Law—joins us to unpack agency decision making in the field of environmental law and conservationism. Through insights gleaned from analyzing over one hundred National Environmental Policy Act reviews, Professor Jacewicz proposes a new conservationism, suggesting changes to conservation-based removals that agencies could adopt to further maximize the well-being of animals. This piece was published in Volume 113 in August 2025. Guest: Natalie Jacewicz (Assistant Professor of Law at the University of San Diego School of Law) Host, Script, Transcript: Juliette Draper (Volume 114 Podcast Editor) Production: Jonah Smith (Volume 115 Senior Technology Editor); Petra Hilton (Volume 115 Technology Editor) Soundtrack: Composed and Performed by Carter Jansen (Volume 110 Technology Editor) Introductory Quote: Judge Thelton E.

Ever scroll past a post that nails your exact pain point and think, "How did they get inside my head?" If it doesn't happen every day, we need to fix that. I used to watch teams craft generic ads that spoke to everyone and resonated with no one. Then I discovered diagnosing: a simple shift to self-identifying language that makes your prospects conclude, "Yep, that's me." Today on the podcast, I'm unpacking diagnosing how to use specificity to build relevance, trust, and demand before you even pitch. Listen in and discover: • What diagnosing (a.k.a. self-identifying language) is and why it beats general messaging • The doctor analogy: why hyper-specific descriptions trigger instant trust and eagerness • The three types of trust you need and how diagnosing checks multiple boxes • Real-world examples: five-sign ads that convert and webinar intros that hook • How to zero in on unwanted situations that make people self-diagnose Ready to stop being "just another voice" and start speaking directly to your ideal customer? Tune in and learn how to diagnose your audience in your next email, ad, or webinar. Did you enjoy this episode? I'd love it if you'd share it on Instagram and tag me @iambrandonlucero!

Discover the history, artistry, and cultural significance of neon as we discuss its evolution from a symbol of class and modernity to its outlaw status and eventual resurgence as a cherished part of Americana and new expressions of glowing art.

As Co-Founder and Director of Actual Size Los Angeles, Siegel championed contemporary art and audience engagement for over a decade. In addition, she worked in museum education and administration at multiple art, music, and culture institutions in Los Angeles. Michael Flechtner [https://www.flektro.com/index] is a neon artist based in Los Angeles, employing his mastery of three-dimensional sculpture, employment of visual puns, and his mentorship of future generations of neon benders. Born in Tiffin, Ohio, Flechtner had an early interest in colored light and electronics while a Bachelors of Fine Art student at Columbus College of Art and Design and during his Masters of Fine Art studies at Wichita State University. In 1991 Flechtner presented his first solo exhibition at MONA. The exhibition was titled Ecce Signum, Latin for “Behold the Sign.” The title was emblematic of the artist's play with a medium often associated with signage as well as his interest in symbols. Now, thirty-four years later, the title for his follow-up exhibition translates as “Behold the Craftsman.” The title serves as a testament to the simultaneous humility and staggering skill neon craftspeople cultivate in order to create their works. Flechtner's best-known public work in Los Angeles is the Neon Aquarium at Olympic and Sawtelle completed in 1998. In 1999 he became a J. Paul Getty Trust Fund Fellow. He was commissioned by the US Postal Service in 2011 to design a stamp for the Forever series: the Celebrate! Stamp. The original work of art is held in the Smithsonian National Postal Museum.

Episode: 00334 Released on August 31, 2026 Description: Amy O'Neill didn't set out to become a law enforcement analyst. After earning a geography degree, a temporary opportunity with Humberside Police introduced her to intelligence analysis and launched a career spanning tactical analysis, major investigations, leadership, and the UK's National Crime Agency. In this episode, Amy discusses how geography and mapping shaped her analytical approach, including her Analyst Badge Story involving a prolific burglary group and an investigation that resulted in significant prison sentences. She also reflects candidly on a difficult transition into leadership, what she learned from the experience, and why failure ultimately helped make her a stronger leader. Amy also shares the story behind the revitalized IALEIA UK Chapter, its rapid growth, and an ambitious goal of hosting an international symposium by 2030. Her advice? Say yes to opportunities even when they're uncomfortable but learn when to say no to the “can you just…” requests.

What if the most sustainable craft supply is the one you already own?Toban Nichols is the director of education and development at Remainders Creative Reuse, a nonprofit that gives donated fabric, yarn, paper, tools and all kinds of unexpected materials a second life. After 15 years teaching visual arts and photography, including to underserved young people, Toban has seen firsthand how access to creative materials can shape who gets to see themselves as a creative.In this episode, Toban and Lexy get into the surprising ways crafting can fuel overconsumption, from resin and glue-heavy trends to buying supplies for projects that never actually happen. Toban shares some of the wildest things that have landed at Remainders, including a Rolex, a grand piano, a jar of teeth and a very unexpected truck accessory. They also talk about the difference between sustainable reuse and hoarding, why Toban eventually stopped bringing materials home without a current project in mind, and how Remainders is making creativity more affordable and accessible.

In this episode of the John Kitchens Coach Podcast Experience, John sits down with returning guest Fred Butts, co-founder of Arch & Pillar Group in New Hampshire's Seacoast region, to unpack how he and his business partner (and spouse) Elaine are breaking into a luxury real estate market that's been dominated for decades by legacy brokerages like Sotheby's, Christie's, and Compass. Fred walks through why he built a brand instead of leaning on his own name, how he prices for a market that rewards exclusivity over volume, and the specific, patient work of getting into the rooms (private clubs, nonprofit boards, chamber events) where high-net-worth relationships actually get built. It's a clear look at what it takes to reposition an established business around brand instead of personality, and what it means to play the long game in a legacy market.Key Topics Covered* What a “legacy market” is and how it differs from a fast-moving, transient luxury market* Why Fred and Elaine built the Arch & Pillar brand instead of marketing under their own names* Balancing personal brand (the face of the business) with company brand (the business itself)* Reading a legacy market's real pain points — family logistics, time, exclusivity, and dream-driven decisions* Crafting the offer: pairing “the chocolate” clients want with “the broccoli” they actually need* Why Fred refuses to discount, and how pricing should reflect the level of service delivered* Getting into the room: private clubs, The Music Hall, chamber of commerce, and nonprofit galas as relationship-building ground* Playing the long game with patience — staying calm above the water while paddling hard underneath* Managing client emotion and ego at higher price points* Why brand, not the agent's name, is the lasting moat in any market“People don't pay the country's best lawyers for the time that they're in the courtroom. They pay them for the thousands of other hours that they've spent in the courtroom before that event.” — Fred ButtsConnect With Us Ready to scale your real estate business with more freedom?

Transcript:Da: Under den glødende sommersol havde Soren en drøm.En: Under the blazing summer sun, Soren had a dream.Da: Han ville skabe det bedste skoleprojekt, som nogen nogensinde havde set.En: He wanted to create the best school project anyone had ever seen.Da: Hans mål var stort: en prisvindende videnskabelig opfindelse.En: His goal was ambitious: an award-winning scientific invention.Da: Men hvor kunne han finde inspiration?En: But where could he find inspiration?Da: Den hemmelige laboratorie under den gamle videnskabsbygning lokkede med sit mysterium og uopdagede potentiale.En: The secret laboratory beneath the old science building beckoned with its mystery and undiscovered potential.Da: Soren, med sine stjerner i øjnene, stod overfor Katrine i skolegården.En: Soren, with stars in his eyes, stood before Katrine in the schoolyard.Da: Hun lyttede skeptisk, mens han forklarede sin plan.En: She listened skeptically as he explained his plan.Da: "Vi skal ind i laboratoriet," insisterede han.En: "We need to go into the laboratory," he insisted.Da: "Vi kan finde noget dernede, som ingen andre har."En: "We can find something down there that no one else has."Da: Katrine rynkede panden.En: Katrine furrowed her brow.Da: Hun var klog og forsigtig.En: She was smart and cautious.Da: "Det er risikabelt," sagde hun.En: "It's risky," she said.Da: "Hvis vi bliver opdaget, kan vi få problemer."En: "If we get caught, we could get into trouble."Da: Men hendes nysgerrighed blev vakt af Sorens entusiasme, og til sidst gav hun efter.En: But her curiosity was piqued by Soren's enthusiasm, and eventually, she relented.Da: "Okay," sagde hun med et suk.En: "Okay," she said with a sigh.Da: "Men vi gør det på én betingelse: Vi er forsigtige."En: "But we'll do it on one condition: We have to be careful."Da: Natten faldt på, og de sneg sig ind gennem en skjult dør bag biblioteket.En: Night fell, and they snuck in through a hidden door behind the library.Da: Trinene var smalle og mørke, og da de kom ned i laboratoriet, blev de mødt af en verden af underlige apparater og teknologisk mumlen.En: The stairs were narrow and dark, and when they reached the laboratory, they were met with a world of strange equipment and technological murmurs.Da: Lysene var dæmpede, og skygger dansede overalt omkring dem.En: The lights were dimmed, and shadows danced all around them.Da: Der var noget næsten magisk ved stedet.En: There was something almost magical about the place.Da: Soren kunne ikke skjule sin begejstring.En: Soren couldn't hide his excitement.Da: "Se på alt dette!"En: "Look at all this!"Da: udbrød han og peged på en maskine, der glimtede i hjørnet.En: he exclaimed, pointing at a machine that gleamed in the corner.Da: Katrine lod sig lidt smitte af hans glæde og begyndte at udforske hylderne.En: Katrine was slightly infected by his joy and began exploring the shelves.Da: Men mens Soren rørte ved knapperne, skete det.En: But as Soren touched the buttons, it happened.Da: En høj summen, et blink af lys, og pludselig gik maskinen i gang.En: A loud humming, a flash of light, and suddenly the machine started up.Da: Skærme blinkede, og luften blev elektrisk.En: Screens flickered, and the air became electric.Da: Katrine råbte: "Soren, hvad gjorde du?"En: Katrine shouted: "Soren, what did you do?"Da: De skyndte sig rundt, prøvende at finde en måde at slukke maskinen på.En: They rushed around, trying to find a way to turn off the machine.Da: Deres hjerter larmede i brystet.En: Their hearts pounded in their chests.Da: Med svedige hænder trykkede Katrine modstanderen og pludselig blev der stille.En: With sweaty hands, Katrine pressed the opponent, and suddenly it was silent.Da: De tog en dyb indånding og så på hinanden.En: They took a deep breath and looked at each other.Da: "Vi må komme ud herfra," sagde Katrine.En: "We have to get out of here," Katrine said.Da: De hastede op ad trappen, begejstrede, men lettede.En: They hurried up the stairs, excited but relieved.Da: Udenfor, i nattens ro, indså Soren, at Katrine havde haft ret.En: Outside, in the calm of the night, Soren realized that Katrine had been right.Da: "Jeg burde have været mere forsigtig," indrømmede han.En: "I should have been more careful," he admitted.Da: "Men tak for at tage med mig."En: "But thank you for coming with me."Da: Katrine smilede, nu lidt mere selvsikker.En: Katrine smiled, now a bit more confident.Da: "Vi gjorde det sammen."En: "We did it together."Da: De gik hjem, fulde af idéer til deres projekt.En: They walked home, full of ideas for their project.Da: De vidste, at deres opdagelser fra den særlige aften ville bringe dem langt – både som et stærkt team og i deres viden om, hvad der er muligt.En: They knew that their discoveries from that special night would take them far—both as a strong team and in their knowledge of what is possible.Da: Nu var de klar til at forvandle deres oplevelser til noget formidabelt til skolen.En: Now they were ready to transform their experiences into something formidable for school.

Just days before the ARWS European Championship Montane Adventure Race, race director Lars Bukkehave sits down with TDZ to explain the 48-hour course that he built. Showcasing the beauty and challenge of Denmark, the race runs 19 stages including a sea cliff where you can still see the black clay layer left by the asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs, underwater checkpoints, a Cold War nuclear bunker turned checkpoint, a vertical orienteering stage that sends racers climbing into the trees, and a maze set in a public park so spectators can watch.Lars also gets into what holds it all together: 70+ volunteers, and the bonfires, stick bread, and shared meals that turn 50 teams from 17 countries into a reunion before the gun even goes off. His 22-year career as an adventure racer, race director, and championship-winning teammate has led to this moment, and he looks forward to sharing it with the world.Shownotes:Race Social Media - https://www.facebook.com/MontaneAdventureRaceAtlas Explorers Expeditions - https://www.atlas-explorers.com/

Rob Has a Podcast | Survivor / Big Brother / Amazing Race - RHAP
Talking with T-Bird: Sue Hawk Watch this podcast on YouTube! The time has come for the return of “Talking with T-Bird.” Each episode, Rob Cesternino (@robcesternino) and Survivor: Africa‘s Teresa “T-Bird” Cooper (@tbirdcooper) will catch up with a former Survivor player and talk about anything and take listener questions. Just when you think you know Survivor 50, the legends themselves return to shake things up. Host Rob Cesternino teams up with T-Bird Cooper for a memorable “Talking with T-Bird” deep dive, retracing the roots of Survivor history and connecting it with the unpredictable energy of the current season. This episode stands out as T-Bird finally tracks down the elusive Sue Hawk, whose raw, unfiltered perspective on Survivor Borneo still sets the standard for honest gameplay and legendary jury speeches. Survivor 50 is back in the spotlight as Rob and T-Bird relive Sue's iconic story, all while comparing early Survivor's “wild west” style to the fast-paced idol hunts, immunity twists, and softer conditions of the modern game. Sue doesn't hold back, critiquing how much easier conditions seem now—from 26-day seasons to the abundance of clothes and comforts—and reflecting on the real threats and alliances that shaped Borneo. She breaks down the truth behind those first alliances, the sting of betrayal, and why every move on Survivor comes with lasting consequences, both in the game and back in the real world. Key discussion points include: – Sue's behind-the-scenes journey from “off the grid” legend to Survivor All-Star, and how she finally agreed to talk after years of letters and texts with T-Bird – Insights into Survivor Borneo's original alliances and Sue's “snake and rat” speech that rocked reality TV – Raw comparisons between old-school survival—sand fleas, rain, boredom, and bush medicine—versus Survivor 50's so-called “softball” era – How modern twists (idols, shortened seasons) impact the intensity and credibility of winning – Reflections on loyalty, trust, and what it really means to survive—on the island and beyond As Rob and T-Bird revisit Sue's legacy, they question whether today's players could endure old-school hardships or if strategic complexity now outweighs environmental grit. Can emotional honesty still change the game, or has the new era made it all about flash and fleeting power?

Talking with T-Bird: Sue Hawk Watch this podcast on YouTube! The time has come for the return of “Talking with T-Bird.” Each episode, Rob Cesternino (@robcesternino) and Survivor: Africa‘s Teresa “T-Bird” Cooper (@tbirdcooper) will catch up with a former Survivor player and talk about anything and take listener questions. Just when you think you know Survivor 50, the legends themselves return to shake things up. Host Rob Cesternino teams up with T-Bird Cooper for a memorable “Talking with T-Bird” deep dive, retracing the roots of Survivor history and connecting it with the unpredictable energy of the current season. This episode stands out as T-Bird finally tracks down the elusive Sue Hawk, whose raw, unfiltered perspective on Survivor Borneo still sets the standard for honest gameplay and legendary jury speeches. Survivor 50 is back in the spotlight as Rob and T-Bird relive Sue's iconic story, all while comparing early Survivor's “wild west” style to the fast-paced idol hunts, immunity twists, and softer conditions of the modern game. Sue doesn't hold back, critiquing how much easier conditions seem now—from 26-day seasons to the abundance of clothes and comforts—and reflecting on the real threats and alliances that shaped Borneo. She breaks down the truth behind those first alliances, the sting of betrayal, and why every move on Survivor comes with lasting consequences, both in the game and back in the real world. Key discussion points include: – Sue's behind-the-scenes journey from “off the grid” legend to Survivor All-Star, and how she finally agreed to talk after years of letters and texts with T-Bird – Insights into Survivor Borneo's original alliances and Sue's “snake and rat” speech that rocked reality TV – Raw comparisons between old-school survival—sand fleas, rain, boredom, and bush medicine—versus Survivor 50's so-called “softball” era – How modern twists (idols, shortened seasons) impact the intensity and credibility of winning – Reflections on loyalty, trust, and what it really means to survive—on the island and beyond As Rob and T-Bird revisit Sue's legacy, they question whether today's players could endure old-school hardships or if strategic complexity now outweighs environmental grit. Can emotional honesty still change the game, or has the new era made it all about flash and fleeting power? Dive into this episode for Survivor storytelling that bridges generations, reveals hard truths, and keeps your torch burning for what's coming next. Listen now to see Survivor 50 through the eyes of legends—and decide for yourself if the game will ever be the same.

Nostalgia Comebacks: Things We Loved Then Are Back Again! From adult LEGO sets that are great for the mind and body, the return of '90s and early 2000s styles to the return of Analog Hobbies: crocheting, needlepoint to building model toys. Join radio hosts Rebecca Wanner aka ‘BEC' and Jeff ‘Tigger' Erhardt (Tigger & BEC) with the latest in Outdoors & Western Lifestyle News! Nostalgia has a funny way of coming back around. From building LEGO sets at the kitchen table to choosing a favorite haircut from a magazine, many of the things we remember from childhood and young adulthood are finding new life today. Some are returning simply because they're fun, while others offer surprising benefits in a world dominated by screens and digital distractions. LEGO for Adults: Building Our Way Back to Childhood LEGO isn't just for kids anymore. Adult LEGO sets have become a popular pastime for people looking for creativity, relaxation, and a satisfying break from everyday routines. Why LEGO Is Good for More Than Nostalgia Beyond the childhood memories, working with small LEGO pieces requires hand-eye coordination, concentration, and fine motor skills. For older adults, hands-on activities that encourage dexterity can be an enjoyable way to keep the fingers moving as we age. My (Rebecca Wanner aka BEC) personal experience for wellness, was putting together many Lego Botanical flower bouquets. The Legos kept my fingers moving, allowed for deep concentration, and the ability to relieve stress. Goodbye, Columbia House: Remembering the Era of Mail-Order CDs Columbia House, the storied mail-order club that offered 12 CDs for a penny and transformed the way Americans listened to music, announced it will be shutting down after 71 years. The company has announced that as of Sep. 16, it will no longer accept new orders. Grandma and Analog Hobbies Are Having a Moment Traditional hands-on crafts like crocheting, knitting, needlepoint, and scrapbooking are dominating free time as a therapeutic screen antidote. Crafting stores are making it even simpler too and fun by offering kits for youth and novice to make their own crochet animals, fun needlework that can be framed or embroidery that could be applied to accessories. Hands on building sets such as model trucks to other fun projects are also popping up. Check your local hardware stores and lumber yards for these kits that are geared to encourage working with hands, following instructions and learning the reward of building something oneself!
