Janet Walkoe & Margaret Walton, Exploring the Seeds of Algebraic Reasoning ROUNDING UP: SEASON 4 | EPISODE 8 Algebraic reasoning is defined as the ability to use symbols, variables, and mathematical operations to represent and solve problems. This type of reasoning is crucial for a range of disciplines. In this episode, we're talking with Janet Walkoe and Margaret Walton about the seeds of algebraic reasoning found in our students' lived experiences and the ways we can draw on them to support student learning. BIOGRAPHIES Margaret Walton joined Towson University's Department of Mathematics in 2024. She teaches mathematics methods courses to undergraduate preservice teachers and courses about teacher professional development to education graduate students. Her research interests include teacher educator learning and professional development, teacher learning and professional development, and facilitator and teacher noticing. Janet Walkoe is an associate professor in the College of Education at the University of Maryland. Janet's research interests include teacher noticing and teacher responsiveness in the mathematics classroom. She is interested in how teachers attend to and make sense of student thinking and other student resources, including but not limited to student dispositions and students' ways of communicating mathematics. RESOURCES "Seeds of Algebraic Thinking: a Knowledge in Pieces Perspective on the Development of Algebraic Thinking" "Seeds of Algebraic Thinking: Towards a Research Agenda" NOTICE Lab "Leveraging Early Algebraic Experiences" TRANSCRIPT Mike Wallus: Hello, Janet and Margaret, thank you so much for joining us. I'm really excited to talk with you both about the seeds of algebraic thinking. Janet Walkoe: Thanks for having us. We're excited to be here. Margaret Walton: Yeah, thanks so much. Mike: So for listeners, without prayer knowledge, I'm wondering how you would describe the seeds of algebraic thinking. Janet: OK. For a little context, more than a decade ago, my good friend and colleague, [Mariana] Levin—she's at Western Michigan University—she and I used to talk about all of the algebraic thinking we saw our children doing when they were toddlers—this is maybe 10 or more years ago—in their play, and just watching them act in the world. And we started keeping a list of these things we saw. And it grew and grew, and finally we decided to write about this in our 2020 FLM article ["Seeds of Algebraic Thinking: Towards a Research Agenda" in For the Learning of Mathematics] that introduced the seeds of algebraic thinking idea. Since they were still toddlers, they weren't actually expressing full algebraic conceptions, but they were displaying bits of algebraic thinking that we called "seeds." And so this idea, these small conceptual resources, grows out of the knowledge and pieces perspective on learning that came out of Berkeley in the nineties, led by Andy diSessa. And generally that's the perspective that knowledge is made up of small cognitive bits rather than larger concepts. So if we're thinking of addition, rather than thinking of it as leveled, maybe at the first level there's knowing how to count and add two groups of numbers. And then maybe at another level we add two negative numbers, and then at another level we could add positives and negatives. So that might be a stage-based way of thinking about it. And instead, if we think about this in terms of little bits of resources that students bring, the idea of combining bunches of things—the idea of like entities or nonlike entities, opposites, positives and negatives, the idea of opposites canceling—all those kinds of things and other such resources to think about addition. It's that perspective that we're going with. And it's not like we master one level and move on to the next. It's more that these pieces are here, available to us. We come to a situation with these resources and call upon them and connect them as it comes up in the context. Mike: I think that feels really intuitive, particularly for anyone who's taught young children. That really brings me back to the days when I was teaching kindergartners and first graders. I want to ask you about something else. You all mentioned several things like this notion of "do, undo" or "closing in" or the idea of "in-betweenness" while we were preparing for this interview. And I'm wondering if you could describe what these things mean in some detail for our audience, and then maybe connect them back with this notion of the seeds of algebraic thinking. Margaret: Yeah, sure. So we would say that these are different seeds of algebraic thinking that kids might activate as they learn math and then also learn more formal algebra. So the first seed, the doing and undoing that you mentioned, is really completing some sort of action or process and then reversing it. So an example might be when a toddler stacks blocks or cups. I have lots of nieces and nephews or friends' kids who I've seen do this often—all the time, really—when they'll maybe make towers of blocks, stack them up one by one and then sort of unstack them, right? So later this experience might apply to learning about functions, for example, as students plug in values as inputs, that's kind of the doing part, but also solve functions at certain outputs to find the input. So that's kind of one example there. And then you also talked about closing in and in-betweenness, which might both be related to intervals. So closing in is a seed where it's sort of related to getting closer and closer to a desired value. And then in formal algebra, and maybe math leading up to formal algebra, the seed might be activated when students work with inequalities maybe, or maybe ordering fractions. And then the last seed that you mentioned there, in-betweenness, is the idea of being between two things. For example, kids might have experiences with the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears, and the porridge being too hot, too cold, or just right. So that "just right" is in-between. So these seats might relate to inequalities and the idea that solutions of math problems might be a range of values and not just one. Mike: So part of what's so exciting about this conversation is that the seeds of algebraic thinking really can emerge from children's lived experience, meaning kids are coming with informal prior knowledge that we can access. And I'm wondering if you can describe some examples of children's play, or even everyday tasks, that cultivate these seeds of algebraic thinking. Janet: That's great. So when I think back to the early days when we were thinking about these ideas, one example stands out in my head. I was going to the grocery store with my daughter who was about three at the time, and she just did not like the grocery store at all. And when we were in the car, I told her, "Oh, don't worry, we're just going in for a short bit of time, just a second." And she sat in the back and said, "Oh, like the capital letter A." I remember being blown away thinking about all that came together for her to think about that image, just the relationship between time and distance, the amount of time highlighting the instantaneous nature of the time we'd actually be in the store, all kinds of things. And I think in terms of play examples, there were so many. When she was little, she was gifted a play doctor kit. So it was a plastic kit that had a stethoscope and a blood pressure monitor, all these old-school tools. And she would play doctor with her stuffed animals. And she knew that any one of her stuffed animals could be the patient, but it probably wouldn't be a cup. So she had this idea that these could be candidates for patients, and it was this—but only certain things. We refer to this concept as "replacement," and it's this idea that you can replace whatever this blank box is with any number of things, but maybe those things are limited and maybe that idea comes into play when thinking about variables in formal algebra. Margaret: A couple of other examples just from the seeds that you asked about in the previous question. One might be if you're talking about closing in, games like when kids play things like "you're getting warmer" or "you're getting colder" when they're trying to find a hidden object or you're closing in when tuning an instrument, maybe like a guitar or a violin. And then for in-betweeness, we talked about Goldilocks, but it could be something as simple as, "I'm sitting in between my two parents" or measuring different heights and there's someone who's very tall and someone who's very short, but then there are a bunch of people who also fall in between. So those are some other examples. Mike: You're making me wonder about some of these ideas, these concepts, these habits of mind that these seeds grow into during children's elementary learning experiences. Can we talk about that a bit? Janet: Sure. Thank you for that question. So we think of seeds as a little more general. So rather than a particular seed growing into something or being destined for something, it's more that a seed becomes activated more in a particular context and connections with other seeds get strengthened. So for example, the idea of like or nonlike terms with the positive and negative numbers. Like or nonlike or opposites can come up in so many different contexts. And that's one seed that gets evoked when thinking potentially when thinking about addition. So rather than a seed being planted and growing into things, it's more like there are these seeds, these resources that children collect as they act on the world and experience things. And in particular contexts, certain seeds are evoked and then connected. And then in other contexts, as the context becomes more familiar, maybe they're evoked more often and connected more strongly. And then that becomes something that's connected with that context. And that's how we see children learning as they become more expert in a particular context or situation. Mike: So in some ways it feels almost more like a neural network of sorts. Like the more that these connections are activated, the stronger the connection becomes. Is that a better analogy than this notion of seeds growing? It's more so that there are connections that are made and deepened, for lack of a better way of saying it? Janet: Mm-hmm. And pruned in certain circumstances. We actually struggled a bit with the name because we thought seeds might evoke this, "Here's a seed, it's this particular seed, it grows into this particular concept." But then we really struggled with other neurons of algebraic thinking. So we tossed around some other potential ideas in it to kind of evoke that image a little better. But yes, that's exactly how I would think about it. Mike: I mean, just to digress a little bit, I think it's an interesting question for you all as you're trying to describe this relationship, because in some respects it does resemble seeds—meaning that the beginnings of this set of ideas are coming out of lived experiences that children have early in their lives. And then those things are connected and deepened—or, as you said, pruned. So it kind of has features of this notion of a seed, but it also has features of a network that is interconnected, which I suspect is probably why it's fairly hard to name that. Janet: Mm-hmm. And it does have—so if you look at, for example, the replacement seed, my daughter playing doctor with her stuffed animals, the replacement seed there. But you can imagine that that seed, it's domain agnostic, so it can come out in grammar. For instance, the ad-libs, a noun goes here, and so it can be any different noun. It's the same idea, different context. And you can see the thread among contexts, even though it's not meaning the same thing or not used in the same way necessarily. Mike: It strikes me that understanding the seeds of algebraic thinking is really a powerful tool for educators. They could, for example, use it as a lens when they're planning instruction or interpreting student reasoning. Can you talk about this, Margaret and Janet? Margaret: Yeah, sure, definitely. So we've seen that teachers who take a seeds lens can be really curious about where student ideas come from. So, for example, when a student talks about a math solution, maybe instead of judging whether the answer is right or wrong, a teacher might actually be more curious about how the student came to that idea. In some of our work, we've seen teachers who have a seeds perspective can look for pieces of a student answer that are productive instead of taking an entire answer as right or wrong. So we think that seeds can really help educators intentionally look for student assets and off of them. And for us, that's students' informal and lived experiences. Janet: And kind of going along with that, one of the things we really emphasize in our methods courses, and is emphasized in teacher education in general, is this idea of excavating for student ideas and looking at what's good about what the student says and reframing what a student says, not as a misconception, but reframing it as what's positive about this idea. And we think that having this mindset will help teachers do that. Just knowing that these are things students bring to the situation, these potentially productive resources they have. Is it productive in this case? Maybe. If it's not, what could make it more productive? So having teachers look for these kinds of things we found as helpful in classrooms. Mike: I'm going to ask a question right now that I think is perhaps a little bit challenging, but I suspect it might be what people who are listening are wondering, which is: Are there any generalizable instructional moves that might support formal or informal algebraic thinking that you'd like to see elementary teachers integrate into their classroom practice? Margaret: Yeah, I mean, I think, honestly, it's: Listen carefully to kids' ideas with an open mind. So as you listen to what kids are saying, really thinking about why they're saying what they're saying, maybe where that thinking comes from and how you can leverage it in productive ways. Mike: So I want to go back to the analogy of seeds. And I also want to think about this knowing what you said earlier about the fact that some of the analogy about seeds coming early in a child's life or emerging from their lived experiences, that's an important part of thinking about it. But there's also this notion that time and experiences allow some connections to be made and to grow or to be pruned. What I'm thinking about is the gardener. The challenge in education is that the gardener who is working with students in the form of the teacher and they do some cultivation, they might not necessarily be able to kind of see the horizon, see where some of this is going, see what's happening. So if we have a gardener who's cultivating or drawing on some of the seeds of algebraic thinking in their early childhood students and their elementary students, what do you think the impact of trying to draw on the seeds or make those connections can be for children and students in the long run? Janet: I think [there are] a couple of important points there. And first, one is early on in a child's life. Because experiences breed seeds or because seeds come out of experiences, the more experiences children can have, the better. So for example, if you're in early grades, and you can read a book to a child, they can listen to it, but what else can they do? They could maybe play with toys and act it out. If there's an activity in the book, they could pretend or really do the activity. Maybe it's baking something or maybe it's playing a game. And I think this is advocated in literature on play and early childhood experiences, including Montessori experiences. But the more and varied experiences children can have, the more seeds they'll gain in different experiences. And one thing a teacher can do early on and throughout is look at connections. Look at, "Oh, we did this thing here. Where might it come out here?" If a teacher can identify an important seed, for instance, they can work to strengthen it in different contexts as well. So giving children experiences and then looking for ways to strengthen key ideas through experiences. Mike: One of the challenges of hosting a podcast is that we've got about 20 to 25 minutes to discuss some really big ideas and some powerful practices. And this is one of those times where I really feel that. And I'm wondering, if we have listeners who wanted to continue learning about the ways that they can cultivate the seeds of algebraic thinking, are there particular resources or bodies of research that you would recommend? Janet: So from our particular lab we have a website, and it's notice-lab.com, and that's continuing to be built out. The project is funded by NSF [the National Science Foundation], and we're continuing to add resources. We have links to articles. We have links to ways teachers and parents can use seeds. We have links to professional development for teachers. And those will keep getting built out over time. Margaret, do you want to talk about the article? Margaret: Sure, yeah. Janet and I actually just had an article recently come out in Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching from NCTM [National Council of Teachers of Mathematics]. And it's [in] Issue 5, and it's called "Leveraging Early Algebraic Experiences." So that's definitely another place to check out. And Janet, anything else you want to mention? Janet: I think the website has a lot of resources as well. Mike: So I've read the article and I would encourage anyone to take a look at it. We'll add a link to the article and also a link to the website in the show notes for people who are listening who want to check those things out. I think this is probably a great place to stop. But I want to thank you both so much for joining us. Janet and Margaret, it's really been a pleasure talking with both of you. Janet: Thank you so much, Mike. It's been a pleasure. Margaret: You too.

The holidays naturally inspire generosity. As Christians, we feel a heightened awareness of need—empty tables, struggling families, and financial hardship made more visible by the contrast of celebration all around us. And that impulse to give is good.But God calls us to something deeper.True, Christ-centered generosity goes beyond a one-time act of charity. It invites us to walk alongside people in ways that restore dignity, build hope, and reflect God's heart for renewal—not just during Christmas, but throughout the year.To explore what that kind of generosity looks like in practice, we sat down with Lisa Sheltra, Director of Community Engagement at Salt & Light, a ministry committed to helping without hurting by empowering individuals rather than creating dependency.A Biblical Vision for Deeper GenerosityScripture sets the tone for how we approach generosity. “Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others” (Philippians 2:4). That verse reminds us that generosity is inherently relational. It's not just about meeting needs—it's about entering into someone's life with humility and care.Lisa explained that while giving material help is often necessary, biblical generosity must flow from our relationship with Christ. God's model for giving isn't transactional. It's restorative.She pointed to John 3:16 as the ultimate framework for generosity. When God gave, He didn't offer something temporary or superficial—He gave His Son to address our deepest brokenness and bring true flourishing. If our generosity reflects God's heart, it should aim not only to relieve immediate pain but to support long-term restoration, reconciliation, and community.Many churches and families feel pressure in December to focus heavily on relief efforts—food drives, toy collections, clothing donations. These are good and often necessary responses, especially in moments of crisis.But Lisa cautioned that relief, by its nature, creates a giver-receiver imbalance. When relief becomes the default instead of the exception, it can unintentionally harm both sides of the relationship. It can reduce people to passive recipients and rob them of agency, dignity, and participation.Relief is best understood as a tourniquet—it stops the bleeding in an emergency. But most ongoing struggles, including those we notice during the holidays, are not emergencies. They are development needs, requiring long-term walking together, not repeated short-term fixes.Relief vs. Development: Understanding the DifferenceSalt & Light works closely with principles championed by the Chalmers Center, which emphasizes the importance of distinguishing between relief and development.Relief addresses urgent, immediate crises.Development focuses on long-term growth, dignity, and restored relationships.During the holidays, what looks like an emergency is often a symptom of a deeper, ongoing struggle. Repeated relief may feel satisfying to the giver, but it rarely moves families toward lasting stability or community.Development, on the other hand, invites people to use their own gifts, make their own choices, and participate fully in solutions. It treats individuals not as problems to fix, but as image-bearers with capacity and value.At Salt & Light, empowerment isn't seasonal—it's woven into everyday ministry. Participants invest in the program year-round and are treated not as charity cases, but as customers and guests with agency.Rather than handing out preselected gifts, families can choose items for their loved ones. That choice matters deeply. Lisa shared that many participants have said, “This is the first Christmas in years I've been able to buy gifts for my family myself.”That shift—from receiving charity to exercising choice—restores dignity in powerful ways.A Better Path for ChurchesFor churches wanting to steward holiday generosity wisely, Lisa offered several practical insights:Partner with ministries already practicing development. You don't need to reinvent the wheel.Encourage relational volunteering, not just donation drives.Support year-round ministries, not just seasonal projects.Use the holidays as an on-ramp, connecting people's enthusiasm for giving to sustainable, ongoing involvement.The goal isn't to do more—it's to do good in ways that last.What This Looks Like for IndividualsMany believers want to help but fear causing harm. The answer isn't to stop giving—it's to give differently.Lisa encouraged individuals to approach generosity with humility and a willingness to learn. We don't need perfect solutions. We need presence, patience, listening ears, and respect for dignity.She reminded us that kingdom impact isn't measured by numbers alone. While it may feel impressive to count meals served or gifts distributed, God's metrics are relational. Sometimes faithfulness looks like doing for one what we wish we could do for everyone.When asked to leave listeners with one guiding principle beyond the Christmas season, Lisa said it simply and beautifully:“See others as image-bearers of God—people with gifts, agency, and dignity. Come alongside them, not as fixers, but as fellow participants in God's work of renewal.”When we give in ways that honor dignity and foster genuine connection, we don't just meet needs—we participate in God's redemptive work.To learn more about Salt & Light and their dignity-centered approach to helping others, visit SaltandLightMinistry.org.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I owned my land before I got married, and my husband isn't on the deed.

Communities that endure rarely happen by accident. They are shaped by intentional design and a deep understanding of place. Lew Oliver, founder and principal of Lew Oliver, Inc., joins Host Carol Morgan on the Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio podcast to share his perspective on traditional neighborhood development and the long-term value of thoughtful planning. What does “timeless” really mean in today's housing market? For Oliver, timeless design is not rooted in architectural trends or short-term market appeal. Instead, it is a disciplined approach that places the town — not the individual building — at the center of every decision. A truly timeless place accommodates a wide range of people, lifestyles and life stages while maintaining coherence and character over generations. Oliver often looks to older, storied cities around the world for inspiration. Oliver said, “The things that made these iconic towns were that the buildings were absolutely stunning and well designed and executed, and they shaped the entire community in ways that just single houses could never do.” That philosophy extends beyond massing and layout to the finer points of design. Oliver emphasizes the importance of architectural detailing that feels generous and intentional, with buildings that contribute to the public realm rather than retreat from it. In well-designed towns, staircases, porches and facades extend into streets and plazas, reinforcing a sense of shared space and civic life. Materials also play a critical role in achieving longevity. Local materials are often preferred because they weather gracefully over time, gaining character rather than appearing dated as styles change. Timeless places resist easy categorization because they are grounded in enduring principles rather than fleeting tastes. What is traditional neighborhood development? At the heart of Oliver's work is traditional neighborhood development (TND), a planning approach that prioritizes people, relationships and daily experience over traffic counts and lot yield. “Traditional neighborhood development means that the placement and the detailing of the buildings support creating great places and great streets that prioritize the pedestrian over the car.” That shift in priority has cascading effects on how communities are planned and built. Elements such as rear-loaded alleys, narrower streets, front-facing porches and carefully proportioned setbacks serve as essential tools for creating social streetscapes, allowing homes and buildings to engage the sidewalk directly. In contrast, auto-centric environments often place buildings behind parking lots and wide roadways, making meaningful interaction nearly impossible. In those settings, scale is dictated by speed and vehicle movement rather than human perception, frequently resulting in isolation despite physical proximity. Walkable streets and well-defined public spaces naturally encourage casual encounters — neighbors meeting on a porch, residents stopping to talk on a sidewalk or people lingering in shared green spaces. Oliver describes these everyday interactions as foundational to building trust, belonging and community resilience. Tune into the full episode for deeper insight into timeless placemaking, traditional neighborhood development and why human-scale design continues to resonate.

What if every symptom you've been chasing with pills and supplements is actually a frequency imbalance your body has been begging you to tune back into? Josh Trent welcomes Linda Bamber, Founder of WAVwatch, to the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 787, to explore how we've been misled by a medical system that ignores energy, why every organ and emotion vibrates at a specific frequency, how trauma lives in the body until the right healing frequencies unlock it, and why ancient frequency technology may outperform supplements, drugs, and even traditional diagnostics. Get $100 Off WAVwatch WAVwatch uses sound therapy with acoustical frequencies that run through your body. This method for improving your immune system has been used for centuries and is extremely safe and scientifically researched. Every object has a natural frequency at which it vibrates most easily, its resonant frequency. Nikola Tesla referred to this as the "Mortal Oscillation Rate," recognizing that when an external force matches this frequency, powerful effects can occur. Our bodies, from individual cells to entire organs, have natural frequencies. When exposed to matching external frequencies, resonance can occur, influencing cellular behavior and physiological processes. WAVwatch utilizes this principle by delivering precise frequencies that resonate with specific biological systems, helping to restore natural rhythms and promote balance.

In November gunmen seized more than 300 pupils and a dozen teachers from a Catholic school in northern Nigeria. While authorities have rescued around 100 children, many remain missing. Kidnapping has become a recurring reality in many parts of the country, and in late 2025 President Bola Tinubu declared the crisis a national security emergency. He pledged to boost security in remote areas, but rights groups say the true scale of abductions is hidden by widespread underreporting. The sheer number of kidnappings has also drawn international attention. The United States President has spoken of sending troops to assist, and France's President Emmanuel Macron has offered broader help to tackle insecurity.This week on The Inquiry, we're asking: How can Nigeria stop its kidnap crisis?Contributors Dr Kachi Madreke, politics and international relations scholar, University of Aberdeen, UKDr Jumo Ayandele, clinical assistant professor at New York University's Center for Global Affairs, USJames Barnett, non-resident research fellow at the Centre on Armed GroupsDengiyefa Angalapu, research analyst at the Centre for Democracy and Development in Abuja, NigeriaPresenter: Tanya Beckett Producer: Matt Toulson Researcher: Evie Yabsley Editor: Tom Bigwood Technical Producer: James Bradshaw Production Management Assistant: Liam Morrey(Photo: Nigeria demonstration about student kidnapping.

Feminist foreign policy is a policy framework that challenges traditional understandings of foreign policy. It prioritizes peace, gender equality, human rights, and environmental integrity. Jill Montilla, Development and Communications Associate with the Feminist Foreign Policy Collaborative and Spogmay Ahmed, Senior Policy Advisor with the Feminist Foreign Policy Collaborative, sit down to talk with us about why a framework that disrupts colonial, racist, patriarchal, and male-dominated power structures is critical.Upwards of 15 global governments have formally committed to utilizing a feminist foreign policy, and many more have engaged with the topic in multilateral settings. A recent, re-occurring report from the Feminist Foreign Policy Collaboration, which analyses over 20 countries' commitment to feminist foreign policy, found that these policies have survived more elections than they have lost, that several countries have expanded their commitments, and that several countries have increased multilateral, bilateral, and regional activity. Many governments have taken up sexual and reproductive health and rights, in particular, as a priority. Some countries have stepped back from their commitments, though, amongst a troubled landscape for funding.

What happens when faithful Christians disagree—and refuse to caricature one another?In this episode of Lead Time, Tim Ahlman and Jack Kalleberg sit down with Pastor David Bukes for an honest, brotherly conversation about some of the most sensitive and debated issues in the Lutheran Church—without turning it into a fight.This is not a debate episode.It's a listening episode.Together, they explore:- Where disagreement is genuinely adiaphora—and where it isn't- How “liturgical pietism” and “it's just contextual” can both miss the mark- Why drawing lines too tightly or too loosely can damage unity- The pastoral tension between hospitality and faithfulness, especially around the Lord's Supper- What faithful disagreement actually looks like when everyone shares the same confession- Rather than trying to “win,” this conversation models something increasingly rare: theological conviction held with humility, charity, and love for the Church.If you've ever felt skeptical of church conversations that seem polarized, dismissive, or reactionary—this episode is for you.If you care about unity without compromise—this episode is for you.If you believe the Church is strengthened by honest dialogue rooted in Christ—this episode is for you!Our hope is not that you leave with every question answered, but that you leave encouraged to wrestle together, grounded in the gospel, for the sake of Christ's Church.Join the LCMS Current!(weekly newsletter covering relevant LCMS topics!): https://www.uniteleadership.org/thelcmscurrentThe Best Pizza Franchise OpportunityAnthony & Luca's Pizza Kitchen is the hottest new Cheesesteak & NY Pizza Franchise.Support the showJoin the Lead Time Newsletter!

For the last few months, Navajo Nation leaders have been butting heads over who is its official controller – the person responsible for handling the tribe's finances. Navajo Nation President Buu Nygren tried firing that top official. As KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio reports, that dispute is now over. Sean McCabe has been reaffirmed as the sole lawful controller through a legally binding stipulation between him and President Nygren, which also orders Controller McCabe to receive backpay and have his attorney fees covered. Nygren recently apologized for sending profanity-laced texts leaked by McCabe to council delegates. “I used language that I shouldn't have. In moments of great stress we don't always act as our best selves. This was one such occasion for me.” The October exchange preceded his sudden termination. Screenshots show Nygren pressured McCabe to unlock his government-issued purchase card, but McCabe told him there's no budget. Nygren reiterates that his agreement with McCabe isn't a “compelled admission” of any “unlawful action” or “wrongdoing.” Quinhagak resident Patrick Jones deploys a buoy in the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta region in early summer 2025. (Photo: Sean Gleason) A program that helps boaters in Indigenous coastal communities use buoys to track weather conditions wrapped up another season this fall. Advocates of the Backyard Buoys program say it increased safety for fishermen in Western Alaska – and helped hunters in Alaska's Arctic land whales. The Alaska Desk’s Alena Naiden from our flagship station KNBA has more. Several years ago, seven boaters went missing in the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta region and were never found. The loss motivated residents to find ways to better understand their changing waterways. Nalaquq is an organization that integrates Indigenous knowledge into research in the region. The company joined a nationwide initiative, called the Backyard Buoy project, and deployed three buoys in the area for the first time this year. Lynn Marie Church is Nalaquq's chief executive officer. “We wanted to understand what was going on in our ocean … in our waterways, especially with the changes in the environment that we've seen over the past 10 years.” Backyard Buoys project helps Indigenous coastal communities in Alaska, as well as the Pacific Northwest and Pacific Islands, support maritime activities. Buoys track wave height, temperature, and barometric pressure in real time. Residents can see that information in an app and decide whether it is safe to travel. Church says that using the Backyard Buoys app has been easy. “When you look at where the locations are, it's not by latitude and longitude, it's by place names. That's how we learn in rural Alaska.” Sean Gleason is the head of Research and Development at Nalaquq. “We picked locations where people travel for subsistence or daily travel.” The goal was also to spread out those buoys so communities in different parts of the region can use the data. “There's no one community. Everyone's related.” In Alaska's Arctic, the project has been ramping up as well. The Alaska Eskimo Whaling Commission facilitated the installment of buoys in six communities this year. Martin Edwardsen is the commission's coordinator for the project and is also a whaling co-captain. “I was looking at the app and seeing that the waves weren't too big in the general area where we were headed. So we went out that way and we successfully harvested a whale and brought it back to our community to feed.” The whaling commission is now looking for translators to allow users of the Backyard Buoys app see information in their Native language.

Allen covers a federal judge striking down the US wind energy moratorium, calling it arbitrary and capricious. Plus Maryland opens offshore wind bids for 8.5 gigawatts, Great British Energy announces a £1 billion supply chain investment, and Nordex lands its largest US turbine deal in 25 years with Alliant Energy in Iowa. Sign up now for Uptime Tech News, our weekly email update on all things wind technology. This episode is sponsored by Weather Guard Lightning Tech. Learn more about Weather Guard’s StrikeTape Wind Turbine LPS retrofit. Follow the show on Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Linkedin and visit Weather Guard on the web. And subscribe to Rosemary Barnes’ YouTube channel here. Have a question we can answer on the show? Email us! You know… they said wind power was finished. On day one of the new administration, an executive order landed on desks across Washington. Stop the turbines. Halt the permits. Shut it down. Seventeen states watched their clean energy investments… billions of dollars… suddenly frozen. The order called it a pause. Critics called it a burial. But here is what happened next. Federal Judge Patti Saris of Massachusetts looked at that order. She called it arbitrary. She called it capricious. And on December ninth… she threw it out. Wind energy… is back. The very next day after that federal judge struck down the wind moratorium… Maryland issued a new invitation for offshore wind bids. The state wants eight-point-five gigawatts of offshore wind by twenty thirty-one. Deadline for proposals… January sixteenth. You see… wind power now provides ten percent of America’s electricity. It is the United States’ largest source of renewable energy. Now… three thousand miles across the Atlantic… something else was stirring. In Britain, a state-owned company called Great British Energy unveiled a one billion pound plan. That is more than one-point-two billion dollars. Three hundred million pounds available right now… for turbine blades, transmission cables, and converter stations. The goal… not just to install clean energy… but to build it. On British soil. With British workers. CEO Dan McGrail put it simply. We are investing in British industry. Now… back here at home… in the cornfields of Iowa. The Nordex Group just announced the largest turbine deal in its twenty-five-year American history. Up to one hundred ninety wind turbines. Manufactured in West Branch, Iowa. That facility reopened just this past July. The customer… Alliant Energy. The capacity… more than one thousand megawatts. Enough electricity to power hundreds of thousands of homes. CEO Lisa Barton said they chose a local provider on purpose. “This decision promotes substantial economic development throughout our service area.” Development continues in the US for onshore and offshore wind — although it will take more time offshore wind to grow. But pay attention to what is happening in the UK with GB Energy as offshore and onshore wind production is being built within its borders. Having attended the UK Offshore Wind Supply Chain Spotlight 2025 event in Edinburgh last week, there is massive capability in the UK. And the rest of the world should learn from their efforts. That’s the wind energy news for the 15th of December 2025. Join us tomorrow for the Uptime Wind Energy Podcast.

professorjrod@gmail.comIn this episode of Technology Tap: CompTIA Study Guide, we explore the fascinating evolution of technology from the launch of Sputnik in 1957 to the ubiquitous smartphones of today. Discover how early innovations like ARPANET laid the groundwork for the internet, shaping the landscape of technology education and IT skills development. Whether you're part of a study group preparing for your CompTIA exam or seeking expert IT certification tips, this episode provides valuable insights into the origins of the digital world and how it influences modern tech exam prep. Join us as we connect the dots between history and today's technology challenges to help you succeed in your IT certification journey.We start with Licklider's prophetic vision and the leap from circuit switching to packet switching that made failure-tolerant networks possible. Email gives the net its first social heartbeat. TCP/IP stitches islands into one internet. Tim Berners-Lee's simple stack—HTML, HTTP, URLs—opens the door for everyone. The home dial-up era arrives, and the browser becomes the interface of daily curiosity. Mosaic and Netscape ignite innovation; Microsoft's bundling forces a reckoning; Mozilla and later Chrome reshape standards and speed for the modern era.The dot‑com bubble teaches hard lessons, but Google's PageRank reframes the problem: organize the world's information with relevance, not clutter. Broadband and Wi‑Fi make the net always on, enabling streaming, online gaming, and richer apps. Napster breaks open music, litigation clamps down, and then paid streaming wins on convenience. Social networks shift the center of gravity from pages to people; YouTube turns everyone into a publisher and archivist. E‑commerce perfects logistics, and smartphones put it all in your hand. The cloud becomes the engine behind Netflix, Uber, TikTok, and the systems that silently scale our daily tools.We confront the dark side, too: ransomware, botnets, data breaches, and insecure IoT devices that expand the attack surface. Algorithms now shape what we see and believe, while fiber backbones and 5G push speed and density to new highs. AI becomes the thinking layer of the internet, interpreting, recommending, and generating content at scale. A rising push for decentralization—blockchains, IPFS, self-sovereign identity—seeks to return control to users and reduce dependence on gatekeepers. Where does it all go from here? From ambient computing to satellite constellations and new interfaces, the net may soon fade into the background—omnipresent and invisible.If you enjoyed this deep dive, follow the show, share it with a friend who loves tech history, and leave a quick review so more curious listeners can find us.

Rich people are not like us–they have more money. And mega-rich people? They not only have more money, but they hide it “offshore,” to avoid detection by the tax man, law enforcement, creditors, divorce lawyers, and, sometimes, their fellow citizens whose collective coffers they've plundered.In this conversation, Greg Olear speaks with the economic sociology professor Brooke Harrington, author of Offshore: Stealth Wealth and the New Colonialism, about the murky world of offshore finance, its implications for global inequality, the challenges of studying the ultra-rich, the culture of competitive depravity among the wealthy, and the dangers of their influence on both democracy and capitalism. They also discuss the looming AI bubble, the true purpose of AI, Jeffrey Epstein, and why studying the humanities is so vital.Brooke Harrington is Professor of Economic Sociology at Dartmouth College. Since 2007, she has examined inequality from the top end of the socio-economic spectrum—a research program inaugurated by her training for two years to become a certified offshore wealth manager. Her previous book—Capital without Borders —won the “Outstanding Book” award from the Inequality, Poverty and Mobility section of the American Sociological Association. She advises the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, EU Parliament, and the tax agencies of countries across Europe, North America and Asia-Pacific. Her latest book, Offshore: Stealth Wealth and the New Colonialism, was named a “Best Book” of 2024 by the Financial Times.Follow Brooke:https://bsky.app/profile/ebharrington.bsky.socialVisit her website:https://brookeharrington.com/Buy the book:https://brookeharrington.com/books/offshore-book/Please subscribe to PREVAIL on Substack.
