Il Uvalde school shooting è una delle stragi scolastiche più tragiche della storia recente degli Stati Uniti.Il 24 maggio 2022, un ragazzo di 18 anni, Salvador Ramos, entra armato nella Robb Elementary School, nella città di Uvalde.Prima dell'attacco, Ramos spara alla propria nonna nella loro casa e poi si dirige verso la scuola elementare. Poco dopo mezzogiorno entra nell'edificio e apre il fuoco in due classi di quarta elementare. Nell'attacco vengono uccisi 19 bambini e 2 insegnanti, mentre numerose altre persone rimangono ferite. La situazione dura oltre un'ora: l'assalitore resta barricato nelle aule mentre diversi agenti sono nel corridoio della scuola. Solo dopo circa 77 minuti un'unità tattica della Border Patrol fa irruzione nell'aula e uccide il responsabile. L'intervento delle forze dell'ordine viene duramente criticato. Diverse indagini successive stabiliscono che la risposta della polizia è stata lenta e disorganizzata, e che l'evento non è stato trattato immediatamente come una situazione di active shooter. La tragedia provoca uno shock nazionale negli Stati Uniti, riaprendo il dibattito su armi da fuoco, sicurezza nelle scuole e procedure di intervento della polizia. Poco tempo dopo, il Congresso approva il Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, la riforma federale sulle armi più significativa degli ultimi decenni. Il massacro di Uvalde rimane una ferita profonda per la comunità locale e per tutto il paese, ricordato come uno dei peggiori attacchi armati mai avvenuti in una scuola elementare americana.

What does it look like when a firm stops just talking about diversity and starts building a tangible pathway for the next generation of architects?In this episode of Practice Disrupted, Evelyn Lee is joined by Leah Alissa Bayer, founding principal of Architects Fora, and Gabriella Vaz de Freitas, the firm's Technology Lead and a former recipient of the "FORAship." Leah shares how her fully remote, women-owned firm moved beyond industry-wide conversations about the "pipeline problem" to create a structured, year-long scholarship and internship program. Gabriella, who moved from São Paulo to California, provides a firsthand account of how the program's financial support and intentional mentorship allowed her to transition from a student to a leader in AI-enabled design and firm technology.The conversation explores the mechanics of the FORAship, an immersive experience designed specifically for underrepresented students. Unlike traditional internships, this program integrates students into business management conversations and specialty research, ensuring they have a seat at the table from day one. Leah discusses the strategic advantage of investing in international students and entry-level talent, while Gabriella explains how she leveraged her role to spearhead the firm's adoption of generative design tools and new visualization workflows."Our profession is only as strong as those that are coming into it after us. And it's our job to make the space and support system for that to happen." - Leah Alissa BayerBeyond the logistics of the scholarship, the episode delves into the benefits of a fully remote practice for mentorship and firm culture. Leah shares her "five-year goal" of creating a cohort of small firms to rotate internships, making the process more manageable for employers and more impactful for students. For those navigating the transition to practice, especially international students requiring visa sponsorship, Gabriella's journey offers a roadmap for finding firms whose missions truly align with their personal and professional values.Guests:Leah Alissa Bayer, AIA, NOMA, NCARB is a founding principal of Architects Fora, a fully remote, women-owned firm focused almost exclusively on affordable and restorative housing design. A former local AIA component president, she is dedicated to creating better work environments where diverse populations can succeed.Gabriella Vaz de Freitas is the Technology Lead at Architects Fora and a former Fora Ship recipient. Originally from São Paulo, Brazil, she graduated from Cal Poly and now specializes in AI-enabled design processes, graphic communication, and the implementation of generative tools.This episode is especially for you if:✅ You are tired of "token gestures" and want to see how a small firm can build a legitimate program around equity and belonging.✅ You want to understand the logistics of running a combined scholarship and paid internship program.✅ You are an international student seeking advice on finding firms that support non-U.S. citizen applicants and visa sponsorship.✅ You are curious about how to manage and mentor entry-level staff effectively in a fully remote environment.✅ You want to hear how a new graduate can lead technology research and AI implementation within a firm.What have you done to take action lately?

We're wrapping up Season 4 and our AI, Workplace and Culture series with a look back at our biggest takeaways from each guest. This is a quick, practical roundup of what stuck with us, what we've already put into action, and why this conversation isn't going anywhere.What We CoverMartha Shaughnessy, Founder & CEO of The Key PR – Communication has to be at the table early, especially during change. AI is both an opportunity for tremendous good and a source of real risk. Diverse lived experience is what helps organizations navigate that well.Andrea Jordan, Founder & CEO of Empathium – You can't remove humans from the loop and expect it to work. AI also has underexplored potential to help us develop emotional intelligence, especially in high-stakes fields like healthcare and education.Jordache Johnson, Never Tech Behind – You don't learn AI from one course. Small experiments build skills over time. His ADAPT framework is a practical starting point for integrating AI with intention, not just access.Nikki Silvestri, Founder & CEO of Soil and Shadow – Environmental impact isn't an all-or-nothing conversation. Systems thinking means holding the full picture. And if your organization doesn't have an AI policy, people are already doing whatever they're doing.Key Takeaway Whether you're bullish or bearish, not engaging is not a neutral position.

Maine's lobster industry is changing. You may have heard about lobster populations moving to northern waters or about fishery regulations that make lobstermen question the future of the lobster industry as the cost of doing business in the working waterfront increases. For lobstermen Krista Tripp and Emma Fernald, those uncertainties have led them to diversify the species harvest, grow, and sell, seeking out and growing alternative species like elvers, oysters, and scallops. Emma and Krista are strengthening their livelihood in the working waterfront by diversifying their work, building businesses in both wild harvest and aquaculture fisheries and exploring the potential of new species and seafood products. Through programs like Fishing Plus, Island Institute is supporting new entrepreneurial ventures on the working waterfront.

Rob Williams calls the market “a little complacent” despite yesterday's volatility, arguing that the U.S./Iran war was anticipated and already partially baked in. He thinks investors need “duration” in fixed income right now and is cautious around equities as the rotation trade continues. He also sees “more in the tank” for international equities.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Gary Lee, Chief Administrative Officer of Diverse Erie, as we discuss the annual report from Erie County's Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Commission.
Cresce l'allarme tra le imprese energivore per il forte aumento del prezzo del gas. In pochi giorni il Psv è salito da 33 a 55 euro al MWh, mentre i future sul Ttf di aprile hanno già raggiunto i 58 euro. Per settori come la ceramica questo significa un possibile extracosto annuale stimato in circa 180 milioni di euro, anche perché solo una parte limitata dei contratti di fornitura è stata bloccata a prezzi precedenti. La preoccupazione riguarda anche l'effetto a catena sul prezzo dell'elettricità e sulla competitività delle industrie italiane ed europee. Diverse associazioni industriali chiedono interventi a livello europeo, dalla revisione del sistema Ets alla definizione di politiche energetiche più stabili e accordi di fornitura di lungo periodo. Nel frattempo il governo ha annunciato un confronto con il sistema produttivo per valutare possibili misure di sostegno nel quadro della conversione del decreto Bollette. Ne parliamo con Sara Deganello, Il Sole 24 OreRincari energetici, come (indirettamente) colpiscono l'agroalimentareL'aumento delle tensioni in Medio Oriente e dei prezzi dell'energia rischia di avere effetti anche sul settore agroalimentare, soprattutto attraverso canali indiretti. Una delle principali preoccupazioni riguarda i fertilizzanti: una quota significativa della produzione mondiale passa dallo stretto di Hormuz, mentre un'altra parte rilevante proviene da Russia e Bielorussia. Eventuali interruzioni nelle forniture potrebbero far aumentare i costi agricoli e, di conseguenza, i prezzi lungo tutta la filiera alimentare. A incidere sono anche i rincari energetici che si trasferiscono sui trasporti, sulla trasformazione industriale e sui materiali di imballaggio. Tuttavia, rispetto alla fase iniziale della guerra in Ucraina, i mercati agricoli partono oggi da una situazione più stabile, con scorte più elevate e una domanda più debole, fattori che potrebbero attenuare eventuali shock sui prezzi. Resta comunque il rischio di volatilità legato all'incertezza geopolitica e alle aspettative degli operatori. Interviene Filippo Roda, Senior Analyst di AretèLavoro, Istat: tasso di disoccupazione a gennaio cala al 5,1%, nuovo minimoA gennaio 2026 il mercato del lavoro registra un miglioramento: gli occupati salgono a oltre 24 milioni e il tasso di disoccupazione scende al 5,1%, il livello più basso dall'inizio delle serie storiche nel 2004. La crescita dell'occupazione riguarda dipendenti permanenti, lavoratori a termine e autonomi, mentre diminuisce il numero delle persone in cerca di lavoro. Anche il tasso di disoccupazione giovanile cala, scendendo al 18,9%. Nonostante questi segnali positivi, resta aperto il nodo dei salari: nel quarto trimestre del 2025 i redditi da lavoro dipendente sono aumentati solo dello 0,5% e le retribuzioni reali nel settore privato restano ancora inferiori del 6,5% rispetto ai livelli del 2020, segno che il recupero del potere d'acquisto è ancora incompleto. Il commento è di Francesco Seghezzi, presidente Fondazione ADAPTOpenAI mette la retromarcia sull'alleanza con il PentagonoOpenAI ha annunciato una revisione dell'accordo siglato con il Pentagono per l'utilizzo dei suoi modelli di intelligenza artificiale all'interno delle reti classificate del Dipartimento della Difesa. L'intesa, pensata per supportare attività come analisi tattiche, logistica e decision making militare, ha però suscitato forti critiche e reazioni negative tra gli utenti, con un aumento significativo delle disinstallazioni dell'app ChatGPT negli Stati Uniti. Il caso è esploso anche in seguito alla scelta della società rivale Anthropic di interrompere la propria collaborazione con il Pentagono, rivendicando limiti più stringenti sull'uso militare dell'IA. Di fronte alla polemica, il CEO Sam Altman ha definito l'operazione iniziale "opportunistica e raffazzonata" e ha annunciato modifiche all'accordo, tra cui il divieto di utilizzo per sorveglianza domestica intenzionale dei cittadini statunitensi e nuove restrizioni sull'accesso da parte di alcune agenzie governative. Il commento è di Biagio Simonetta, Il Sole 24 Ore

In this episode, Krisy Thomas, Senior Educator with The CWP Society, is joined by Rima Shaw, Certified Wedding Planner and Certified Educator, for a conversation that goes straight at one of the most uncomfortable moments in our industry — that jolt of panic when a couple asks you to lead a culturally rich, multi-day celebration you don't fully understand.Together, they unpack what true preparation really looks like: before the inquiry call, before the proposal, and long before the wedding day. They dig into the difference between curiosity and genuine cultural fluency, why "figuring it out as you go" ultimately fails the couples who trusted you, and how a planner's integrity shows up not just in the answers they give — but in the questions they know to ask, and the ones they're wise enough not to.The conversation covers the framework behind culturally rooted celebrations: how rituals carry sacred meaning, why the order of events is never arbitrary, and how family dynamics shape decisions that extend far beyond logistics. Rima brings real-world perspective on what planners miss when they're underprepared, what those moments feel like from the family's point of view, and how a trained team can recognize a skipped ritual and course-correct gracefully alongside the officiant.They also take on the biggest misconception in multicultural planning: no two weddings — even within the same faith — are the same. Assumptions quietly erode trust. Informed, respectful discovery builds it.This episode is as tactical as it is principled. You'll hear how to prepare beyond a Google search by building relationships with officiants and culture-immersed vendors, what questions belong in your client questionnaire, how to approach rehearsal protocols, and when the most professional answer is, "I'm not the right fit for this — yet." And they get candid about the real business case for deep specialization, particularly for complex South Asian celebrations, and why continuous education is the backbone of both stronger service and stronger pricing.Saying yes to a culturally significant wedding is a promise to lead with knowledge and respect — not an opportunity to learn on your clients.If this episode resonates, subscribe, share it with a planner who needs to hear it, and leave a review telling us the standard you hold when you say yes.

As Australia begins its royal commission into antisemitism and social cohesion, new research by the Pew Centre shows we're one of the most religiously diverse countries in the world. There's no longer a majority religion, meaning many faiths have found a place. It's a finding that might surprise those who expected that much bigger countries, such as the United States or India, might claim the title.

Volgens Stolte wordt deze onterecht toegedicht aan de beslissing van het Amerikaanse Hooggerechtshof om de importheffingen van de Amerikaanse president Donald Trump ongeldig te verklaren. De koers sukkelt sinds de scherpe daling van begin februari door op het huidige niveau, Stolte waarschuwt dat dit niet automatisch betekent dat de bodem van de bearmarket al bereikt is.

February is the month of love- what is real love- real hesed- sacrificial love? How did Adam love Eve?Today is not our usual crew, but a discussion with guest Russell Grigsby about a book that radically changed his mindset about loving his wife well.In this episode of Just the Guys, Dan sits down with entrepreneur and executive coach Russell Grigsby to talk about late-in-life autism diagnosis, trauma, pride, and the hard work of rebuilding a marriage. Russell shares how childhood wounds, avoidant attachment, and unrecognized autism shaped his relationships — and how confronting shame, embracing humility, and rethinking biblical leadership transformed his life at home. Through books, prayer, coaching, and intentional growth, he learned to stop trying to fix his spouse and instead take responsibility for his own healing. The result is a marriage marked by safety, connection, and hope. This conversation is an honest look at what happens when a man chooses humility over defensiveness and growth over comfort.Books Mentioned:Mending the Soul Groups found at: MendingthesoulFind a GroupAdam loves EveEscaping Enemy ModeBrene Brown's books on Shame and Vulnerability About Russell:Russell is passionate about encouraging others to fulfill their destiny.

"Great minds think alike? It's completely wrong. It's not that great minds think alike; it's that different minds are great." — David OppenheimerIt's diversity week. Yesterday, Brian Soucek argued in favor of what he calls the "opinionated university" to protect free speech. Today David Oppenheimer, law professor at UC Berkeley, on The Diversity Principle: The Story of a Transformative Idea. Oppenheimer reminds us that diversity isn't a modern invention. It traces back to Wilhelm von Humboldt's University of Berlin in 1810, which admitted Catholics and Jews to what would otherwise have been an entirely Protestant institution. And to John Stuart Mill, whose On Liberty—written with his wife Harriet Taylor Mill—might be renamed On Liberty and Diversity.Oppenheimer's case for diversity is partly moral, partly utilitarian. Diverse boards result in more profitable corporations, he says. Diverse science labs make more significant discoveries. Diverse classrooms generate better ideas. The phrase "great minds think alike" is, he says, the product of a poor mind. Different minds are great. That's where the greatness comes from.Oppenheimer takes seriously Clarence Thomas's critique of diversity. Thomas argues that racial diversity assumes Black people all think alike, which is its own form of liberal racism. But Oppenheimer responds by citing Thomas's "brilliant" dissent in Virginia v. Black, where he argued that cross burning isn't political speech but terrorism. That insight, Oppenheimer says, came from Thomas's lived experience as a Black man. The other justices, all white, couldn't see it.The unsung hero in Oppenheimer's history of diversity is Pauli Murray. Born 1910 into the segregated South, Murray coined the term "Jane Crow," influenced Thurgood Marshall's arguments in Brown v. Board, saved the sex discrimination clause in the Civil Rights Act, hired Ruth Bader Ginsburg at the ACLU against the judgment of the men who thought her "meek," and ended her life as an Episcopal priest. Now recognized by the church as a saint, Oppenheimer cites Murray as not just a great theorist of diversity, but also as a paragon of a diverse life. Maybe every week should be diversity week. Five Takeaways● Different Minds Are Great: The phrase "great minds think alike" is, Oppenheimer says, the product of a poor mind. Different minds are great. That's where their greatness comes from.● Diversity Traces Back to 1810: Diversity isn't a modern invention. It traces back to Humboldt's University of Berlin in 1810, which admitted Catholics and Jews. Mill's On Liberty might be renamed On Liberty and Diversity.● Clarence Thomas's Critique Is Serious: Thomas argues that racial diversity assumes Black people all think alike—its own form of liberal racism. But Oppenheimer responds by citing Thomas's own "brilliant" dissent in Virginia v. Black, which came from his lived experience as a Black man.● Pauli Murray Is the Model of a Great Mind: Murray coined the term "Jane Crow," influenced Thurgood Marshall's arguments in Brown v. Board, saved the sex discrimination clause in the Civil Rights Act, and hired Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Oppenheimer cites her as a paragon of a diverse life.● Mill Warned Against Majoritarianism: On Liberty is instructive today. When everyone agrees, listen harder to those who disagree. The majority is not only often ill-informed but often wrong. About the GuestDavid Oppenheimer is a Clinical Professor of Law at UC Berkeley School of Law. He is the author of The Diversity Principle: The Story of a Transformative Idea and co-director of a center on comparative equality law. He attended Harvard Law School and spent his final year at Berkeley.ReferencesPeople mentioned:● John Stuart Mill wrote On Liberty with his wife Harriet Taylor Mill. Oppenheimer argues the book might be renamed On Liberty and Diversity.● Wilhelm von Humboldt founded the University of Berlin in 1810 on principles of diversity, admitting Catholics and Jews to a Protestant institution.● Pauli Murray coined "Jane Crow," influenced Thurgood Marshall, saved sex discrimination in the Civil Rights Act, hired RBG, and became an Episcopal saint.● Charles William Eliot was President of Harvard who brought diversity principles to American higher education, encouraging the "clash of ideas" among undergraduates.● Clarence Thomas offers a critique of diversity that Oppenheimer takes seriously but ultimately rejects, using Thomas's own dissent in Virginia v.

I've taken the title of the sermon from Jonathan Edwards, who in 1738, he wrote, There's an admirable conjunction of diverse excellencies in Jesus Christ. It's quite a mouthful. In Jesus, there is a coming together, a conjunction of excellent qualities we admire that are different and wonderful. An admirable conjunction of diverse excellencies. We look to the reading of God's word if you join with me in prayer. Our gracious God, we do not live by bread alone, but
Summary The general impression that many people have is that prior to European settlement the whole eastern U.S. was one giant old growth forest. But that wasn't the case. Using an interdisciplinary approach, researchers over the last several decades have discovered that the eastern U.S. was instead interspersed with a surprising number of diverse ecosystems – only one of which was old growth forest. 3 things you'll learn from this episode: What researchers now think the eastern U.S. looked like 400 years or more ago. Why we have so many trees now and why it's so easy to believe that everything was once forest. Why all of this matters and what we should do about it.

We all have those destinations we think we know.And then we get there and they completely win us over. In this episode, I'm sharing a handful of places that surprised me in the very best way. These are spots around Europe that went beyond my expectations and left a bigger impression than I ever imagined.I'm talking about everything from the wild, rugged beauty of Ireland's west coast to the storybook charm of York in England.And yes, even Paris made this list because sometimes the most iconic places still manage to surprise you.There are mountain regions that stole my heart, quieter corners that felt more magical than expected, and a few destinations that simply stayed with me long after I left.This is a personal look at expectations vs. reality — and how some of the best travel moments happen when a place catches you off guard. It's also a reminder to leave a little room for the unexpected when you're planning your own European adventure.So now I'm curious… what are the places that surprised you in the best possible way?Send me a note at Lynne@WanderYourWay.comIn this episode:2:15: Intro7:06: Ireland: County Donegal & West Cork11:19: Paris, France14:27: South Tyrol, Italy17:20: Slovenia20:24: Isle of Mull, Scotland23:51: York, England27:02: Krün, Germany30:25: Peak District, England33:31: Normandy, France36:49: St Andrews, Scotland41:42: Recap42:20: Wrapping it upImportant links:County Dongel • IrelandWest Cork • IrelandRainbow Weather: Exploring Beautiful West Cork Ireland with Kat KochThe Best Things To Do in Paris in 4 DaysMy Joyful Love Affair with the Beautiful and Diverse South Tyrol ItalySlovenia • An OverviewIsle of Mull • ScotlandYork • EnglandBlack Forest & Bavaria • GermanyDiscovering the Diverse and Beautiful Peak District EnglandExploring Beautiful Normandy, France: Going Beyond the D-Day BeachesExploring St Andrews • Scotland with Bo FraserWander Your WayWander Your Way AdventuresWander Your Way ResourcesOofos ★ Support this podcast ★

Using Software, AI To Reduce CO2 & Increase Resilience – Lydia Walpole & Chris Bradshaw of Bentley Systems "For example, if we have a concrete pile, we can change the parameters and use AI to suggest actually a more optimal design with regards to how much concrete is going to be used. So we quite often, as engineers, we are risk averse. So sometimes you can over design to make sure consequences in construction and infrastructure are real. We do need to be precise, but we can use AI to ensure that we have a reduced amount of carbon and concrete in that pile, but still meeting the outcomes that we set out to achieve." Lydia Walpole on Electric Ladies Podcast Infrastructure like roads and bridges, as well as buildings today need to be built with strong climate resilience, as well as reduced carbon footprint. Innovative software systems are leveraging AI to increase performance. How? Listen to Lydia Walpole, Senior Director of Global Performance and Chris Bradshaw, Chief Sustainability Officer both of Bentley Systems in this fascinating conversation with Electric Ladies Podcast host Joan Michelson. It was recorded live at the Bentley Systems "Year in Infrastructure" 2025 conference. You'll hear about: ● How Bentley Systems' digital twin technology is reducing risk, waste and CO2 and improving performance. ● How sustainability and climate resilience shift the approach to infrastructure builds from "reactive to predictive," as Chris said, as extreme weather increases. ● How their technologies are transforming infrastructure builds across the globe. ● Plus, career advice, such as: "I often hear about imposter syndrome, and I know it's easy to say, but I've worked in a male dominated environment my whole career, and I've never felt like I shouldn't be here. And it is easy to say, don't feel that, but you deserve to be where you are. You've worked hard and recognize that. …Secondly, be curious and remain curious, and make sure you are continuing to learn and educate yourself every day….Keep abreast of new technologies." Lydia Walpole on Electric Ladies Podcast And Chris Bradshaw added: "My biggest piece of advice would be to be bold. Don't be shy. Diverse groups make better decisions, always…. You are bringing a different point of view." Read Joan's Forbes article on whether A.I. makes our infrastructure safer or not here, and her Joan's other Forbes articles here.
