Podcasts about director's award

(NSFW) In this year's Craft Beer Awards season, Ed and Chris delve deep into the 2023 GABF results, celebrating the victories of Arizona's breweries. They shine a spotlight on the major categories and the skilled brewers who have risen to the top. However, as they navigate through the list, they can't help but notice the absence of certain beer styles. Chris laments the missing Sour Stout, while they share a light-hearted moment over the niche market of gluten-free beer. Despite the quirks, the focus remains on the local scene, with an exciting recap of the 2023 AZ Craft Beer Awards. Pedal Haus takes center stage as Brewery of the Year, and Ayla Kapahi from Broderlands Brewing receives the esteemed Directors Award for her outstanding contributions to the Las Hermanas Project. Amid all the accolades and laughter, Ed and Chris also take a moment to reflect on the private awards event's evolution, showcasing how it has grown and transformed since the previous year. It's a testament to the ever-changing landscape of craft beer, made all the more enjoyable by your continuous support.

My internet went out right in the middle of my interview with Bruce Coffin (horrors!) AND it happened right when I admitted that I have never read a Stephen King novel because I'm afraid of his books and all things creepy. Dang. Having already committed a mortal sin with my admission, I shall say 500 Hail Mary's and we'll meet again in a days. Bless me Father..... TO BE CONTINUED ABOUT BRUCE: Bruce Robert Coffin is the bestselling author of the Detective Byron mystery series and former detective sergeant with more than twenty-seven years in law enforcement. At the time of his retirement, from the Portland, Maine police department, he supervised all homicide and violent crime investigations for Maine's largest city. Following the terror attacks of September 11th, Bruce spent four years working counter-terrorism with the FBI, earning the Director's Award, the highest honor a non-agent can receive. Winner of Killer Nashville's Silver Falchion Award for Best Procedural, Bruce's most recent novel, Beyond the Truth, was also a finalist for the Agatha Award for Best Contemporary Novel, and a finalist for the Maine Literary Award for Best Crime Fiction Novel. ABOUT WITHIN IN SIGHT: Amid the dog days of summer, Detective Sergeant John Byron is called to the scene of a horrific crime: a young woman’s body, dismembered and left in an abandoned Portland lumber yard. The killing shares striking similarities with a spate of murders committed in Boston by a serial killer known only as the Horseman. As Byron’s team investigates the case, they quickly push up against powerful forces in town. But Byron will stop at nothing to find the truth, not when there is a killer on the loose and everyone is a suspect. Has the Horseman expanded his killing field? Is this the work of an ingenious copycat—or is nothing what it seems? One thing is certain: Byron must uncover the truth before the killer strikes again. @copyrighted.

Ron Chaney, great-grandson of Lon Chaney, presented Oberst with the first Lon Chaney Award For Outstanding Achievement In Independent Horror Films in 2014.Oberst's staged theatrical reading "Ray Bradbury's Pillar Of Fire" won an Ernest Kearney Platinum Award for its Los Angeles debut, and was named Best Solo Show Of Hollywood Fringe and Best LA Solo Show in the 2015 Best Of LA Theater Roundup at Bitter-Lemons.com. In 2017 "Ray Bradbury's Pillar Of Fire" won a United Solo Theatre Festival Award for its Off-Broadway debut on Theatre Row in New York City.The premiere of the horror-themed episode of CBS-TV's "Criminal Minds" which introduced Oberst's deformed killer character (also guest-starring Adrienne Barbeau and Tobin Bell) was the evening's most-watched TV program.

In this episode of FBI Retired Case File Review, retired agents Jim Sweeney and Rich Macko review the March 16, 1994, Broad Street shootout where Rich Macko and another agent were shot and seriously injured, and a drug gang member killed after a violent confrontation that occurred while the agents were attempting a car stop. The surviving gang members had to be tried twice for the attempted assassination of federal officers. FBI Director Louie Freeh visited the agents directly after the shootout and, for their actions, later awarded them the FBI’s highest award for bravery the “Medal of Valor.” At the time, Jim was the supervisor and Rich a member of  the Philadelphia Division’s  Violent Traffickers Project, a task force of federal, state and local law enforcement agencies established in 1988 to investigate violent drug dealers and drug-related murders. Also known as Squad 2, the federally funded unit was responsible for the dismantling of more than 50 gangs that had been selling drugs in the Philadelphia area.   Henry James Sweeney “Jim” served in the FBI for more than 39 years, six as a support employee and 33 as an agent. During his agent time, Philadelphia was his first and only office of assignment. He was the supervisor of Squad 2 for twenty-one years. Jim established the squad in 1986 when the FBI was first given the federal mandate to investigate drugs along with the DEA. Upon retiring from the FBI Jim was employed as a special agent with US Treasury Office of Inspector General traveling the country working Stimulus Funding frauds. Currently,  is working as an investigator for the City of Philadelphia, Office of the Inspector General. Richard Macko served in the FBI for 34 years, three as a support employee and 31 as an agent. For most of his career he conducted long term Criminal Gang  and Organized Crime investigations in the Philadelphia Division.. Late in his career, he accepted a special assignment to Boston where he was part of the team who investigated and prosecuted a corrupt retired Boston FBI Supervisor convicted of crimes related to his long-term association with South Boston Organized Crime Boss “Whitey” Bulger. Macko was awarded the “Directors Award for Investigative Excellence” by FBI Director Mueller for his efforts in the case. Before retiring, Macko was deployed to Iraq by the FBI to assist in the investigation of genocide and crimes against humanity under the  Iraqi Criminal Law. Currently, he as a Senior Law Enforcement Advisor in Afghanistan for the 101st Airborne and 25th Infantry Divisions of the U.S. Army and went “outside the wire” on more than 50 missions in direct support of our troops.   Join my Reader Team to get the FBI Reading Resource - Books about the FBI, written by FBI agents, the 20 clichés about the FBI Reality Checklist, and keep up to date on the FBI in books, TV, and movies via my monthly email.

They discuss how immigration laws did not change under Obama. However, the way they were interpreted did change, specifically asylum laws. They continue to discuss that it is not only Mexican immigrants that are smuggled over the border, plus the large amount of money spent on smuggling. Victor adds that farmers on the border are forced to allow smugglers to use their land. He also clears up the question of why people who are kidnapped do not run away from smugglers that hold them captive and how the smugglers treat them.

Well, without the help of God—and perhaps even some new perspectives that could come from the changing of the guard in Washington, D.C.—parenting children in 2017 America could be tougher than ever. Do we, the supposed “deplorable” parents, actually have a chance of raising kids that can help make America great again? Our guest today, Todd Starnes has been at Fox News Radio for more than a decade. His daily commentary is heard on hundreds of radio stations, and his syndicated column is read by millions. He is a frequent contributor on Fox News Channel programs. Mr. Starnes has covered some of the biggest stories of the past decade, from presidential campaigns to the culture wars, and has authored four books, including The Deplorables' Guide to Making America Great Again. He was the recipient of an Associated Press Mark Twain Award for Storytelling and has received many other awards, including the National Religious Broadcaster's Board of Directors Award in 2014. Todd Starnes is a frequent speaker at churches, Christian conferences, and Christian universities and has delivered messages at the Ronald Reagan Ranch and the Billy Graham Training Center. Is Parenting in 2017 About to Get Better As always, our hope shouldn't be in the one reining in Washington, D.C. Our hope should be in the one reining in the New Jerusalem—that of course being our Lord Jesus Christ. However, I really think this new administration could possibly be an example to everyone—certainly parents—that there is more to being a wise, compassionate, noble and loving human being than simply being politically correct and flattering all the time. These qualities are so often self-serving and just flat disingenuous, and deep down most people know it. The Bible says we shouldn't be easily offended. With the right motives, I think that telling it like it is can be the most compassionate thing you can do for someone. Jesus, Peter, Paul and certainly John the Baptist all did it. They didn't always use soft language when they did it either. As much as we see the flaw of sinful humanity in this new president—as much as his words and leadership style seems to offend the lemmings and snowflakes created by postmodern thought and political correctness—let's keep in mind that God only has a pool of flawed human beings to work with, and some are flawed in different ways than others. The Prophet Isaiah confessed to being a man of unclean lips, yet God still used him in a mighty way. The Apostle Peter cursed and swore while denying his Lord and Savior! God even used guys like King Cyrus and others like him to cultivate the ground of revival for His people. So, maybe He could use a guy like Donald Trump. I think this new administration—if they play their cards right—could help parents realize that higher expectations might actually lead to higher results; that reward should actually be attached to achievement; that trophies go to winners and people of character; that there's a price to be paid for mediocrity; and that we can find hope in the character produced by persevering through the struggles that life is sure to bring our way. If this new administration can model the good and the wisdom of what Scripture has plainly taught previous generations of Americans, then hopefully parents will be freed-up to bag some of this nonsensical political correctness and exercise the freedom to raise their kids in a way that's a little more congruent with a biblical worldview. At least, that's my hope. So, my prayer is that this new administration will—in some way, shape, or form—help provide a climate where parents can feel as though they actually do have a "License to Parent" as God ordained it. Right now a lot of parents, even Christian parents, don't know whether to spit or wind their watches, because of all the political correctness that has metastasized—particularly over the last eight years.
