 Dr. Naphtali Hoff trains school leaders and teachers to perform at their best without running themselves into the ground. A former educator and school leader himself, Dr. Hoff now coaches and trains school leaders on management, productivity, and delegation across the country. He's the author of three books, and his newest, Becoming the Delegating School Boss, is the one most relevant here — it helps school leaders clear their plates and empower their teams. Dr. Naphtali Hoff joins the Ruckuscast to break down why so many principals resist letting go, and what it actually takes to build a team you can trust. Every principal has felt it: the sense that if they left the building for a day, something would fall apart. That's not a compliment — it's a delegation problem, and it's quietly running good leaders into the ground. This episode breaks down why school leaders won't let go, and the exact framework for handing off real work without losing control of it.

PART 1 of 2: Apparently the moon, Area 51, and Antarctica have all been attacked in the last week by the admittedly made up - by Corey Goode - Dark Fleet. Just prior to the assaults, however, an intergalactic peace treaty was supposedly signed just like all the other fake treaties dating back to president Eisenhower. From his granddaughter Laura confirming this a few years ago to George Kavassilas and also the Metatronic Healers Academy saying the same this year. In other news, the Internet and AI have warped people's brains so severely that videos of the crucifixion of Jesus, the serpent in the metaphoric garden, and even vampires and giants building the pyramids of Egypt, are being shared like a computer virus on social media. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

The Act declared the Communist Party of the United States an instrument of a conspiracy to overthrow the government. It stripped it of “all rights, privileges, and immunities” available to legal organizations, and made knowing membership in the party potentially criminal.Perhaps more remarkable is how little resistance any of this encountered. This was the height of the McCarthy era, when the political cost of appearing insufficiently hostile to communism was enormous. The bill passed the Senate 79-0 and the House 265-2. Those margins tell you something important about the moment: liberals and conservatives alike had strong incentives to demonstrate their anti-communist bona fides, and almost no one had much incentive to be the person standing up for the constitutional rights of communists. Eisenhower signed the bill, and, at least on paper, an American political party ceased to have any legal existence.The significance of August 24, 1954 is mostly as a lesson in what happens to civil liberties when they are placed under enough political pressure—and in the messier ways our constitutional system often corrects itself. The Communist Control Act was constitutionally dubious from the start; punishing someone for just belonging to a political organization runs directly into the freedoms of speech and association. But the law was rarely enforced, courts largely avoided confronting its most sweeping provisions head-on, and it gradually withered into a stricture approaching a dead letter, though it technically remains on the books. Later Supreme Court decisions made considerably clearer that the government can't punish mere association or abstract advocacy, as opposed to incitement to imminent lawless action.That makes this a fitting anniversary for a day when we also have a story about protesters sentenced for their political activity. The point captured in today's opening quote from Justice Brandeis is easy to endorse when the speaker and the cause are popular. The real test of the freedom to think and speak as you will comes when neither is.A federal judge has struck down one of the administration's broader immigration policies, vacating a State Department decision that suspended immigrant visa processing for applicants from 75 countries.The policy, announced in January, halted immigrant visa processing for nationals of 75 countries—including Afghanistan, Iran, Russia, and Somalia—on the theory that applicants from those countries were likely to require public assistance. U.S. District Judge Jeannette Vargas in Manhattan called the policy “patently unlawful,” but the interesting part of the decision is less the rhetoric than the relatively straightforward statutory problem she identified: Secretary of State Marco Rubio did not have the power Congress gave someone else.Federal immigration law expressly limits the Secretary of State's authority over how consular officers process immigrant visas. The administration therefore could not use the Secretary's general authority to accomplish something Congress had specifically placed beyond his reach. It is a theme we have seen repeatedly this summer: not some enormous constitutional confrontation over presidential power, but the considerably more mundane question of whether the executive branch can point to a statute that actually authorizes what it is doing.Vargas's order also does more than stop the policy going forward. She vacated visa denials based solely on the suspended-processing policy, meaning applicants who were turned away under it can have their applications reconsidered. The lawsuit was brought by immigrant-rights organizations, visa applicants, and U.S. citizens seeking visas for family members.The broader point is that immigration and foreign affairs may be areas in which the executive branch enjoys substantial discretion, but discretion is not the same thing as unlimited authority. The government still needs to identify where Congress gave it the power it claims to possess. Here, the court concluded Congress had done essentially the opposite.US judge strikes down policy suspending immigrant visa processing for 75 nations | ReutersWashington Post · Al JazeeraSeven pro-Palestinian protesters who shut down the Golden Gate Bridge in 2024 have now been sentenced, and the result is a useful little illustration of how the law handles civil disobedience.The seven were among 26 protesters who drove onto the bridge in April 2024, stopped their vehicles, and chained themselves together to protest the war in Gaza, blocking traffic for hours. They were convicted in July of misdemeanor false imprisonment, obstruction of a thoroughfare, and unlawful assembly. On Friday, they were sentenced to 30 days in jail—with an option that could cut that time in half—along with six months of probation and roughly $1,000 in fines and restitution.The First Amendment line here is not especially mysterious. Protest is protected; physically preventing other people from leaving is not. That is the significance of the false-imprisonment charge: motorists were stuck on a bridge with nowhere else to go. You can stand alongside the road holding a sign. You do not acquire a First Amendment right to chain the road shut merely because your reason for doing it is political.But the sentence is interesting in the other direction. The defendants potentially faced years in prison and received 30 days, while prosecutors dropped the most serious felony conspiracy charge after the jury deadlocked on it. That gap illustrates just how much calibration occurs after we decide that conduct is criminal. Prosecutors and judges can recognize both that the protesters deliberately interfered with the rights of hundreds of other people and that they did so as part of nonviolent political expression rather than for personal gain or predatory purposes.That is more or less how a legal system metabolizes civil disobedience: the political motivation does not erase the underlying offense, but neither must the law pretend that motivation is irrelevant when deciding how severely to punish it. On the anniversary of the Communist Control Act, it is an especially useful reminder that the legal treatment of dissent rarely comes down to a simple choice between “protected” and “illegal.” Much of the real work happens in between.Pro-Palestinian protesters sentenced over blocking Golden Gate Bridge traffic | ReutersKQED · Mission LocalAnd finally, TikTok and parent company ByteDance have agreed to pay $400 million to settle the Justice Department's lawsuit accusing the platform of violating federal children's privacy law—an enormous number for a case built around a statute passed before TikTok, or really modern social media, existed.The Justice Department filed the lawsuit in 2024 on behalf of the Federal Trade Commission, alleging that TikTok allowed millions of children under 13 to create accounts without their parents' knowledge or consent and then made it unnecessarily difficult for parents to have those accounts deleted. The statute at issue is COPPA, the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998, which generally requires online services covered by the law to obtain verifiable parental consent before collecting personal information from children under 13.There is an especially interesting wrinkle in how the $400 million settlement is structured. TikTok will pay $300 million now and another $100 million once a court vacates an earlier consent decree entered against Musical.ly, TikTok's predecessor. That matters because this is not the first time the platform has encountered the government over children's privacy. Musical.ly had already been penalized over COPPA violations, and the government's latest case alleged that the problems continued afterward.TikTok is settling without admitting wrongdoing and says it has made substantial changes to its age controls and parental-oversight systems. But whatever one thinks of the underlying allegations, $400 million is a fairly substantial reminder that COPPA is not merely a disclosure statute sitting around from the early Internet.And this case fits into the larger fight over children and social media from a somewhat different direction than the addiction and product-design litigation we have been following. Those cases ask what platforms may design for children and what harms those designs may cause. COPPA asks the considerably less glamorous but foundational question that comes before all of that: who gets to collect information about children in the first place, and on what terms? Four hundred million dollars suggests the government still thinks the answer matters quite a bit.US Justice Department, TikTok settle $400 million children's privacy suit | ReutersAxios · Justice Department This is a public episode.

WHAT DO 11 U.S. PRESIDENTS, the DALAI LAMA and WHOOPI HAVE in COMMON? by Patrick O'Donnell https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CVG1G21C Patrickinfocus.com He photographed 11 U.S. presidents. But this California photojournalist’s 60-year career was about more than just the leaders of the free world. It was also about the evolution of modern journalism and one photographer’s quest to capture iconic images along the way. Patrick O’Donnell’s journey began in high school, when he caught the photojournalism bug from a master teacher. By college, he was taking pictures for his student newspaper, then working full-time for local papers while still in school. Early assignments included Richard Nixon’s failed California governor bid and Eisenhower’s 1964 Rose Bowl appearance. So began O’Donnell’s front-row view of history. His warm, personal stories take you behind the lens and scenes of inside access chatting confidentially with George H.W. Bush at an event and capturing images of Nixon's resignation day at El Toro marine base. Much more than presidents alone, this memoir follows O’Donnell through adventures covering sports, local events, fairs and entertainers like Kevin Costner and Tony Bennett. We ride along to meet everyone from Dr. “Bee Man” Norm Gary to Groucho Marx feeding grapes to Alice Cooper. The Dalai Lama, Margaret Thatcher and Jerry Brown sprinkle the narrative too. Part journalism passion project, part who's who of 55+ years behind closed doors, this richly illustrated book memorializes an era when newspapers still ruled – before cell phones and digital film crowded out the dark room. Personal, humorous stories make this insider’s chronicle a must-read photo memoir for any news junkie and photography buff.

A stevedore on the San Francisco docks in the 1940s, who eventually taught at the University of California at Berkeley, Eric Hoffer wrote philosophical treatises in his spare time while living in the railroad yards. The True Believer: Thoughts on the Nature of Mass Movements—the first and most famous of his books—was made into a bestseller when President Eisenhower cited it during one of the earliest television press conferences. Called a “brilliant and original inquiry” and “a genuine contribution to our social thought” by Arthur Schlesinger, Jr., this landmark in the field of social psychology is completely relevant and essential for understanding the world today. It delivers a visionary, highly provocative look into the mind of the fanatic and a penetrating study of how an individual becomes one. When it was first published in 1951. the New Yorker wrote, “Its theme is political fanaticism, with which it deals severely and brilliantly.” The Wall Street Journal agreed, calling The True Believer the famous bestseller with “concise insight into what drives the mind of the fanatic and the dynamics of a mass movement” by the legendary San Francisco longshoreman.

More than 200 years after his fall at Waterloo, Napoleon continues to shape the modern world. His influence extends far beyond the battlefields of Europe, leaving a legacy that can still be seen in today's military organizations, legal systems, governments, and leadership doctrines.In this episode, special guest Robert C. Greenway will explore how Napoleon revolutionized warfare through the corps system, rapid maneuver warfare, mass conscription, and centralized command structures. Many of the organizational principles adopted by modern armies can trace their origins directly to the Napoleonic era.We also examine Napoleon's impact on government and civil administration. The Napoleonic Code became one of the most influential legal frameworks in history, shaping laws across Europe, Latin America, and beyond. His reforms in education, banking, merit-based promotion, and state bureaucracy helped create the foundations of the modern nation-state.From West Point to military academies around the world, Napoleon's campaigns remain essential studies in strategy, logistics, leadership, and operational art. Generals from U. S. Grant and von Moltke to Dwight D. Eisenhower have studied his methods to better understand the principles of war.Join us as we examine how a single individual transformed warfare, government, and leadership—and why Napoleon's influence remains visible in the armed forces and institutions of the 21st century.Topics Covered:Napoleon's military innovationsThe Corps System and operational warfareMass conscription and citizen armiesThe Napoleonic CodeMeritocracy and military promotionModern military doctrineLeadership lessons from NapoleonState bureaucracy and government reformThe rise of the modern nation-stateCoalition warfareX/Twitter: @andnapoleon#Napoleon #NapoleonBonaparte #MilitaryHistory #Leadership #Strategy #NapoleonicWars #HistoryPodcast #FrenchHistory #Warfare #GreatGenerals

Send us Fan MailThe One Virtue That Makes All the Others WorkDid you catch The Odyssey in theaters? I went with my daughter and my honey a couple weeks ago, and Christopher Nolan's version got me thinking about one scene in particular — Odysseus, tied to the mast of his own ship, choosing to hear the Sirens' song without letting it destroy him. That single choice is one of the oldest stories we have about self-control, and it's where I want to take you this week: temperance. Not the Prohibition-era, no-fun version — the real one, one of the four cardinal virtues, sitting right alongside courage, justice, and wisdom.This episode is the Siren Song of Your Cravings (And How to Outsmart It)In this episode I speak to where temperance actually comes from (hint: it's Latin for "the right amount, not too much, not too little"), why discretion and discipline live inside it, and how building my own "mast" — the pantry I don't stock, the friend I text before the hard moment, the lunch I pack before I even leave the house — beats white-knuckle willpower every time. I bring the Maesters, in Homer, the Stoics, Ryan Holiday, and Jud Brewer to make my case. In this episode of Sirens, Cravings, and the Art of Saying No Quote of the Week"Temperance puts wood on the fire, meal in the barrel, flour in the tub, money in the purse, credit in the country, contentment in the house, clothes on the back, and vigor in the body." — Benjamin FranklinCitations·       Homer, The Odyssey (epic poem, source for the Sirens/mast story I talk about)·       The Odyssey (2026 film), directed by Christopher Nolan, starring Matt Damon, Anne Hathaway, Zendaya, Tom Holland·       Cicero, on translating the Greek sōphrosynē into Latin temperantia·       C.S.

UFOs, UAPs, Non-Human Contact & Zero-Point Energy: Dr. Steven Greer on Government Disclosure, Consciousness and the Truth About Extraterrestrial Intelligence Get ready to have your entire understanding of reality challenged. This episode reveals the science behind non-human intelligence contact, the physics of consciousness, and why the biggest secret in human history could rewrite everything you know about energy, medicine, and human potential. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. Steven Greer, a retired emergency physician and founder of the Center for the Study of Extraterrestrial Intelligence. For over 35 years, Dr. Greer has briefed CIA directors, Pentagon officials, and members of Congress on UFO disclosure, built an archive of more than 750 whistleblower testimonies, and pioneered the CE5 Contact protocol used to initiate peaceful contact with non-human craft. His firsthand experiences, government-level access, and decades of documented research make him one of the most credible voices in the disclosure movement. Dr. Greer and Dave dive into the science of consciousness as a nonlocal field, the zero-point energy technology he believes has been suppressed for 70 years, and how mastering this "hacking" of physics could eliminate scarcity, extend human longevity, and unlock forms of neuroplasticity and human performance most people have never considered. They explore near-death experiences, precognitive dreams, remote viewing, and the idea that a small percentage of people practicing deep meditative states can shift collective consciousness at scale. The conversation also touches on how corruption, fear, and disinformation have kept transformative technology out of public hands, and what it would take for humanity to responsibly manage a disclosure that changes everything. This is essential listening for anyone into biohacking, human performance, consciousness exploration, longevity, functional medicine, and understanding how the mind and unseen fields of energy shape human potential. You'll Learn: Why Dr. Greer believes the U.S. government has had access to anti-gravity and zero-point energy technology since the 1950s How consciousness functions as a nonlocal field and what that means for human potential and neuroplasticity The real story behind the Roswell crash and its connection to nuclear weapons testing How meditation and altered states may unlock remote viewing and precognitive ability Why Dr. Greer believes only 1% of a population practicing coherent consciousness can shift outcomes for the other 99% What it would take to responsibly disclose suppressed energy technology without global economic collapse How fear-based narratives and disinformation campaigns have shaped public perception of non-human contact Thank you to our sponsors! - Qualia | Go to qualialife.com/ASPREY for 50% off, and use code ASPREY for an additional 15% off. - ZenBud | Dave's Nervous System Biohack.

August 6, 2026On August 6, 1965, President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Voting Rights Act, In 1865, Americans ratified the Thirteenth Amendment to the Constitution, outlawing enslavement except as punishment for crimes, In subsequent years, with the ratification of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments, citizenship was guaranteed to anyone born or naturalized in the US (except certain Indigenous Americans) and the right to vote was extended to Black men, These amendments gave Congress the power to enforce them, In response, white opponents hindered the ability of Black men to vote, Opposition did not gain traction until after WWII, when judges used the due process clause and the equal protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to argue that states could not deprive any American of equality, Under pressure from President Dwight D Eisenhower, Congress passed civil rights acts in 1957 and 1960, and in 1964 Congress passed the Civil Rights Act of 1964 which strengthened voting rights, In 1965, the Voting Rights Act became law, It was reauthorized repeatedly by large margins, but in 2013, the Supreme Court struck down the provision of the law requiring that states with a history of discrimination get approval before changing voting laws, The assault on the Voting Rights Act continued in 2026, after the decision in Louisiana v Callais, The gap between white and Black voter turnout in the 2024 election was the highest since at least 2008.Watch today's recording here: https://www.youtube.com/live/g9TUa1Rwd6U?si=T8_KKcHQZElhpnZ-Get full, free access to Letters from an American here: https://heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/subscribeYou can also find me:Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/hcrichardson.bsky.socialInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/heathercoxrichardson/?hl=enFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/heathercoxrichardson/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@heathercoxrichardson Get full access to Letters from an American at heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/subscribe

Richard Nixon was the 37th president of the United States, serving from 1969 until his resignation in 1974. A member of the Republican Party, he is historically significant as the first and only U.S. president to resign from office, a decision prompted by the fallout from the infamous Watergate scandal. Before his presidency, he served as a U.S. Representative and Senator from California, and as the 36th vice president under Dwight D. Eisenhower.

Wednesday was a day off in Henderson, so Gully opens with what actually came out of Tuesday's practice. Masses and McCoy are both pushing for CB2, and if a Day 3 rookie wins that job in eleven practices, that says something about this draft class. Tonka Hemingway has a slim lead at nose tackle with Adam Butler and Benito Jones right behind him. Kwity Paye had a lot to say about him. Then there's DJ Glaze. A lot of you have been asking why nobody's talking about him. He's taken the majority of right tackle reps and he's got 31 straight starts, but listen to how Rick Dennison talks about him: working hard, made some progress, things to get better at. That's process language, not a vote of confidence. Charles Grant and Trey Zuhn III are right there. Then it's your turn. Anders in Oakland calls in with the best framing of Klint Kubiak anyone's given yet, running him through Teddy Roosevelt, Eisenhower and Washington, and makes the case that the buck actually stops with this staff. Raider Eddie in Denver wants to know if Glaze is too slow-footed for tackle and belongs at guard, whether Grant is really being groomed to back up Kolton Miller, and where Trey Zuhn fits. Plus Angry Rick 68 on X gets into Mike Florio and how PFT covers this franchise. Be part of the show. Call the line at 702-900-7869 or send a video to mail@silverandblacktoday.com.

¿Es posible que existan miles de millones de dólares perdidos en presupuestos negros destinados a proyectos que escapan a cualquier control democrático? Hoy analizamos las tesis de Catherine Austin Fitts sobre la existencia de una élite separada y el desarrollo de tecnología exótica. Exploramos la realidad de las bases subterráneas y la posible influencia de una inteligencia artificial en la arquitectura de un orden global que trasciende fronteras. •Más allá de la conspiración, desgranamos cómo el complejo militar-industrial y los intereses financieros convergen en una estructura de poder que opera en paralelo a los gobiernos. Un viaje al fondo de los mecanismos de control que definen nuestra era, desde el legado de Eisenhower hasta la gestión de los flujos de información en el siglo XXI.

How did George Washington overcome virtually every material disadvantage to defeat the British during the Revolutionary War? How did Ulysses S. Grant turn the tides of the Civil War in the Union's favor in the crucial year of 1864? How did Dwight Eisenhower manage the overwhelming personal burden of leading the Allied invasion of Europe? The answers to these questions share remarkable continuities, and together they offer a picture into the requirements of successful supreme command at war—and offer lessons that will shape the outcomes of America's future wars. To explore them, John Amble is joined on this episode by retired Lieutenant Colonel Matt Cavanaugh, author of the book Who Wins Wars: Lessons in Leadership, Power, and Supreme Command from Washington, Grant, and Eisenhower.

Havva Sevay: AI vs. Real People—Helping Teams Avoid Information Overload Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes.   "It's still a tool. It can make mistakes, it can hallucinate. People don't really question it—and that's the danger." - Havva Sevay   This week's coaching conversation tackles a challenge Havva—and many Scrum Masters—are living right now: AI vs. real people. For some, AI is a useful tool; for others, it's a magic oracle that solves everything and makes people replaceable. Havva sees the real risk in teams that accept AI's confident answers without double-checking, and in leaders who use AI to generate massive documents and dump them on teams as finished decisions. Vasco pushes the conversation into the practical: when a flood of AI-generated information, requirements, and tool changes lands on a busy team, how do you help them cope? Havva's answer is to step back and ask the human questions first—what is the epic? what does the stakeholder actually want? what do we really need right now? Then she pulls out a deliberately low-tech move: forget AI for one second. Her team uses the Eisenhower matrix manually to separate what's important now from what can wait. AI is a great tool—but the filtering of what matters is still human work.   Self-reflection Question: When AI floods your team with information and options, what is your practice for helping them separate what matters now from the noise?   [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

  Reinventing the Supply Chain with AI from Rail-to-Road w/ Kevin Damoa of GlidTech - AZ TRT S07 EP11 (293) 7-26-2026       What We Learned This Week The Biggest Supply Chain Problem Isn't Transportation—It's Handling Freight often changes hands multiple times before reaching its destination. Every transfer increases cost, delays, and complexity. America Already Has the Infrastructure Rather than building new rail systems, Glid Tech's strategy is to better utilize the thousands of miles of existing railroad infrastructure that are currently underused. AI Is Becoming a Logistics Manager Ezra 16 doesn't simply route vehicles—it evaluates weather, traffic, rail availability, and fleet positioning simultaneously to determine the most efficient route. Military Innovation Often Creates Commercial Opportunity The company's technology originated from solving dangerous military logistics problems before expanding into commercial transportation, continuing a long history of defense-driven innovation. The Future of Transportation Is Integration Instead of choosing between trucks or trains, the future may involve seamless transitions between both, allowing each mode to be used where it performs best.     Guest: Kevin Damoa LKIN: HERE   Website: https://www.glidtech.us/   Founder and CEO Glīd Technologies Kevin A. Damoa builds the systems that move what matters. Over two decades, he has carried mobility from the factory floor to the launch pad and onto the battlefield, advancing the hard logistics of rockets, aircraft, electric vehicles, and now autonomous road-to-rail freight. As Founder and CEO of Glīd Technologies, he is building the dual-mode autonomous infrastructure that connects the nation's roads and rails into a single logistics network. His operating discipline was forged in military service. Damoa enlisted in the US Army at seventeen, served two years in South Korea, and completed two combat tours in Iraq with the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment, where he ran railhead logistics in a theater of war. He continued his service in the Air National Guard as a Logistics Officer and firefighter supporting California's Modular Airborne Fire Fighting System mission, retiring in 2018 after twelve years of concurrent service. Damoa joined SpaceX in 2012 as Flight Module Logistics Manager, where he built the logistics systems and programs behind a maturing launch operation and designed and deployed the transport apparatus that carried rockets from production to the launch site. Following a tour at Northrop Grumman as an Integration Program Manager on the F-35 program, he moved into senior operating leadership across a generation of clean-mobility companies, holding executive roles at Romeo Power, Xos Trucks, Canoo, and Serial 1, a Harley-Davidson brand. In each, he owned the unglamorous work that decides whether a product reaches the market: industrialization, supply chain, manufacturing deployment, and launch. In 2022, Damoa founded Glīd Technologies to solve a problem the freight system has carried for a century, the broken handoff between road and rail. Glīd designs and builds US-made autonomous dual-mode vehicles and the AI logistics orchestration software that directs them, serving commercial freight and national defense. The company is built on a granted dual-mode road-to-rail patent, is a certified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business, and won the 2025 TechCrunch Disrupt Startup Battlefield. Damoa holds an MS in Mechanical Engineering from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University and an MBA in Project Management from Keller Graduate School of Management. He leads Glīd as both its CEO and its Architect, a reflection of his conviction that the people who set a company's direction should understand, in detail, how the thing is built.   Notes:   Summary Technical logistics and supply chain challenges were discussed along with prototype development and potential military applications. Supply Chain Efficiency Challenges Excessive handling requirements create significant dwell time in global shipping. Current infrastructure heavily relies on road transport due to rail inaccessibility, resulting in massive maintenance costs. Startup Prototypes and Technology The startup developed 4 prototypes featuring human-operated and autonomous vehicles alongside AI orchestration software. This technology utilizes existing rail and road infrastructure to enable seamless transport transitions. Military and Market Outlook Applying rail logistics to defense sectors aims to improve safety for military personnel by reducing reliance on road convoys. Future strategy balances defense and commercial growth across various sectors.     Segment 1 ·         Definition of Supply Chain Challenges: Kevin Damoa identified that the core problem in the current supply chain is the inefficiency of moving goods due to excessive handling requirements. Noted that 72% of commercial freight is stuck on roads because rail is viewed as inaccessible, while the military faces similar issues, utilizing only 20% of their 44,000 miles of rail infrastructure. ·         Company Status and Prototypes: Kevin Damoa confirmed that Glidech is a startup that raised a pre-seed round the previous year and currently has 14 full-time employees. The company has developed four prototypes: two human-operated vehicles named "Glider M" that function on road and rail, and two autonomous vehicles named "Raiden". They also have an AI orchestration software tool called "Ezra 16," which provides transportation management, fleet tracking, and autonomous coordination. ·         Supply Chain Inefficiencies and "Touches": Kevin Damoa detailed the complexity of global shipping, describing how goods undergo numerous transfers between boats, "hustler" trucks, cranes, and trains. They explained that this leads to significant "detention time" or "dwell time," where goods sit idle for weeks, often resulting in increased costs and the need for expensive expedited shipping. ·         Comparison of Road and Rail Infrastructure: Kevin Damoa highlighted that while trucks are more accessible, they contribute to congestion, pollution, and high road maintenance costs, citing that $105 billion is spent annually in the United States repairing roads damaged by 80,000-pound trucks. Conversely, they argued that rail infrastructure is simpler and cheaper to maintain using small crews, yet rail remains unattractive due to the difficulties in getting freight onto the system.     Segment 2 ·         GlidTech Solution and Ezra 16 Capabilities: Kevin Damoa described Glidec as a hardware and software company that leverages existing infrastructure rather than creating new fixed systems. The "Ezra 16" software creates a digital twin environment that incorporates weather, road congestion, and rail allocation to determine the most efficient, safe, and cost-effective transport mode for goods. The goal is to facilitate seamless transitions between road and rail, avoiding the necessity of staying exclusively on one mode for the entire journey. ·         Origin of GliTech Technology: Kevin Damoa traced the origin of their technology to their personal military experience, specifically a process called "rail heading" while preparing for deployment in Iraq. They described the process as dangerous, slow, and cumbersome, requiring multiple pieces of heavy machinery and many people; Glidec was created to consolidate these steps into a single vehicle and one maneuver. ·         Technical Operation of Vehicles: Kevin Damoa explained the mechanics of the Glider M and Raiden vehicles, which feature specialized rail gear, 360-degree cameras, and sensors that use "positive recognition" to identify datums on the track. Once identified, the rail gear deploys, the steering wheel locks, and the vehicle operates on the rail; upon exit, the system triggers a release notification to return to road operation. ·         Safety and Integration with Rail Systems: Kevin Damoa noted that their technology patches into existing "positive train control" systems used by railroads. This allows their vehicles to receive time-slot allocations and operate dynamically, such as exiting the track to allow a train to pass before returning to the route. ·         Utilization of Infrastructure: Kevin Damoa emphasized that their approach leverages "the best of both worlds" by using road networks to navigate traffic and rail networks for faster transit in less developed or woodsy areas. This strategy utilizes existing, underused tracks rather than requiring the construction of new infrastructure. ·         Professional Background of Kevin Damoa: Kevin Damoa detailed their professional history, starting with military service in the Army and the Air Force National Guard, where they participated in firefighting operations. Their corporate background includes managing transportation and recovery operations for the first 17 SpaceX Falcon 9 vehicles, working as an engineer and program manager on the F-35 fighter jet program at Northrop Grumman, and holding roles in e-mobility at Romeo Power, Canoe, XOS Trucks, and Harley-Davidson's Serial 1.   Segment 3 ·         Historical and Defense Context: Historical overview, noting that President Eisenhower used the Defense Act in the 1950s to develop the US highway system based on models like the German Autobahn. Kevin Damoa discussed how the Department of Defense currently relies heavily on road convoys despite owning 44,000 miles of rail, and noted that they aim to make this existing rail infrastructure more accessible to the military. ·         Military Safety and Operational Applications: Kevin Damoa highlighted that enabling rail transport could save soldiers' lives, citing that one out of ten logisticians in the military are casualties during combat supply operations. They further explained that their autonomous Raiden vehicles can operate in austere, desert, or underdeveloped locations, moving containerized supplies, weapons, or drone-manufacturing equipment without risking personnel. ·         Future Market Outlook: Looking ahead, Kevin Damoa projected a balanced growth strategy between commercial and defense sectors, noting interest from municipalities, states, countries, and industrial parks. Framed the future of the company around bridging the gap in the logistical workforce and providing a new transport mode, which they branded with the slogan, "Don't ship it, glide it".     Segment 4 Clips from: Efficiency in the Supply Chain by a New Container Invention w/ Trevor Pan of BidBird AZ TRT S04 EP41 (204) 10-15-2023   Things We Learned This Week Malcolm McLean was the inventor of the shipping Container, and a key person in trade & globalization BidBird invented a container skin, a smooth panel for the side to reduce wind resistance & improve fuel efficiency Patent process and Patent Cooperation Treaty to register an invention in foreign countries Building a Prototype and doing a road test with a Truck plus a Container on a race track     Show Link: HERE **Preview clip of Trevor Pan   Malcolm McLean and the History of the Container This leads to a new level of capitalism, modern globalization & wider trade Malcolm Mclean is the inventor of one of the most major inventions in history that affects people daily. He is also not known by many people despite the impact he has had.  McLean owned a trucking company and he used to ship goods via boat. He'd be waiting on the docks with cotton in the 1940s in early 1950s for hours.  Ships would be docked for a month, as men were loading crates by hand. The same system was being done with global trade and sea trade for thousands of years. Mclean got tired of this, and trying to figure out a solution to the problem like any entrepreneur. Find a need and fill it.  January 1956 - he debuted the box ship. McLean got a $22 million loan & bought 2 World War II tankers and converted them. In April 1956 the first one sailed from New Jersey to Houston. This cut cost from 5.86 per  to $.16, a 95% drop or 36 fold savings.  Oct.1957 - the first real containership Gateway city launched. Trip went from New York to Florida to Texas and then on later to Puerto Rico. Per McLean, 'the ship makes money when at sea'.  In 1963, container ports had been created, by 1966 in Europe, 1967 Vietnam had container service, and 1969 Hong Kong and more Southeast Asia.  McLean got a patent which is shared, called – standardization, and the standardize size container for shipping.  He created a company, called Sealand Industries - which was then bought by RJ Reynolds. Eventually they were mergers and oil companies that bought out the line and today it's owned by MAERSK.  Goods are shipped today for pennies on the dollar, all because of McLean's invention. He changed global trade, shipping, oil exploration, and more. It's a multi trillion dollar invention. It also created port cities like Oakland. Every day it affects all sorts of goods and trades finance, big companies like Walmart and Apple.  Not sure if we would have globalization if not for Mclean. At least not as fast.

Ganz klar, wenn man zum ersten Mal in die USA reist, wird man höchstwahrscheinlich nicht gerade Arkansas und Alabama besuchen. Wegen der wechselvollen oft dunklen Geschichte der Südstaaten gibt es in den Südosten des Landes viel zu entdecken – Orte, die an die Bürgerrechtsbewegung erinnern ebenso wie lebendige Musikgeschichte, Artenvielfalt in State Parks und schnuckelige kleine Downtowns.„La petite roche“- kleiner Felsen- so nannte der französische Entdecker de la Harpe eine Gesteinsformation, als er Anfang des 18. Jahrhunderts den heutigen Arkansas River landeinwärts entlangschipperte. Die Hauptstadt des heutigen Bundesstaats Arkansas heißt „Little Rock“. Eine Stadt mit rund 200 000 Einwohnern, die sich über viele Quadratkilometer verteilt, aus einem Patchwork unterschiedlicher Neighbourhoods besteht und mit viel Interessantem aufwartet. Nahe des State Capitols von Arkansas erinnert eine eindrucksvolle Skulptur an die „Little Rock Nine“.Das waren die ersten afroamerikanischen Schülerinnen und Schüler, die nach der offiziellen Aufhebung der Rassentrennung in Arkansas eine High School besuchten. 1957 war das - der Gouverneur von Arkansas versuchte, ihnen den Besuch der High School zu verwehren, ein weißer Mob demonstrierte vor der Schule. Und Präsident Eisenhower setzte schließlich Bundestruppen ein, um die Schüler zum Unterricht zu eskortieren. Heute wird die High School samt Gelände vom National Park Service betreut, es gibt Führungen und unterschiedlichste Veranstaltungen.Überhaupt, Little Rock bietet eine ziemlich vielfältige Museumslandschaft. Von den dichten Wäldern und mittelgebirgsähnlichen Regionen in Arkansas zum Süden von Alabama. Das Tensaw River Delta bei Mobile wird auch der „Amazonas Nordamerikas“ genannt. Hier, wo sich Salz- und Süßwasser mischen, ist eine enorme Artenvielfalt zu finden - allein rund 300 Vogelarten sind hier gesichtet worden, dazu zahlreiche Amphibien, Alligatoren und kleine Säugetiere.Mobile selbst gehört zu den ältesten Städten der USA und ist besonders stolz auf seinen „Mardi Gras“, den ältesten Nordamerikas. Doch Mobile steht auch für ein dunkles Kapitel der amerikanischen Geschichte - im Viertel Africatown erzählt ein kleines Museum seit einigen Jahren die Geschichte der „Clotilda“. Das Schiff schmuggelte 1860 – Jahrzehnte nach dem Verbot des transatlantischen Sklavenhandels - 110 aus Westafrika verschleppte Menschen nach Alabama. Ihre Nachfahren leben heute teilweise noch in Africatown. Und wollen mit dem Museum aber auch mit regelmäßigen Veranstaltungen dafür sorgen, dass ihre Geschichte nicht in Vergessenheit gerät.Crosspromotion: ARD-Podcast: "Amerika, wir müssen reden" https://www.ndr.de/nachrichten/info/amerika-wir-muessen-reden,podcast5882.htmlModeration: Philipp AbreschAutor:in: Sabine LoeprickRedaktion: Philipp Abresch, Angelika PenzMitarbeit: Patricia Batlle Produktion: Wolfgang Seesko, Konrad Winkler

In this episode, we explore the powerful meaning behind America's motto, "In God We Trust," and President Dwight D. Eisenhower's conviction that the United States should stand distinctly apart from atheistic communist nations. But trusting God is far more than a national slogan or a passing thought. The Bible calls believers to be a holy people, separated unto God and noticeably different from a world marred by sin.Join us as we examine the biblical truth that salvation comes by God's grace through faith, and how genuine saving faith brings the gift of new divine life. We will discuss how God's Word produces faith, the importance of the King James Bible's command to be filled with the Spirit of God, and what it means to live a life marked by holy conduct, godly speech, and faithful service. Discover how a Spirit-filled walk reflects a vibrant faith in Christ and demonstrates a life set apart for God's glory.The Voice in the Wilderness does not endorse any link or other material found at buzzsprout.More at https://www.thevoiceinthewilderness.org/

It's Thursday, July 30th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Iranian Muslim authorities shut down oldest Protestant church Iranian officials recently shut down the oldest Protestant church in the country. Christians have held worship services at St. Peter's Evangelical Church in Tehran for 150 years. Authorities have now seized the property and banned church gatherings there. They also ordered 28 families living on the church compound to leave. Iran has been seizing Protestant church properties for years. Mansour Khajehpour previously served as an elder at St. Peter's Church. He told Christianity Today that the church in Iran grows despite persecution. He said, “This is the dynamic reality of the church. The church will not die. The church will grow, and we are a part of that church.” In Matthew 16:18, Jesus said, “On this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it.” United States launched strikes on Iran last night Speaking of Iran, the United States began launching strikes on Iran at 8 p.m. Wednesday, July 29th, according to the U.S. Central Command. The U.S. attacks were “a powerful response to [Tuesday's] attempted Iranian attacks on U.S. forces based in the Middle East.” The attacks by Iran on U.S. forces did not get past U.S. defenses. And The Western Journal reports that foreign governments are taking part in the fighting now, where they hadn't before. For the first time, the Saudi Arabian military joined with the U.S. in striking Iranian-backed militias in Iraq, reports the Associated Press. Retired Navy Vice Adm. Robert Harward, a retired SEAL and former deputy CENTCOM commander, said, “You see the Lebanese government making an agreement with Israel to undermine and try to get rid of Hezbollah.” He added, “You're seeing the pressure build on Iran on all fronts.” Ukrainian refugees have planted 160 churches across Europe Millions of Ukrainians have fled their homes since Russia invaded the country in 2022. Despite this, these refugees have planted churches across Europe.  European Christian Mission International reports displaced Ukrainians have started 160 churches in Europe in the last four years.   A report from the organization stated, “Increasingly, Ukrainian believers are refusing to see themselves only as refugees. Instead, many are embracing a different calling - missionaries sent by God into the nations of Europe.” Canadian labor board ruled in favor of COVID-shot rejecter LifeSiteNews reports that a Canadian labor board ruled in favor of a Christian man who objected to the COVID-shot mandate. The Canadian Revenue Agency suspended Steven Porter without pay after denying his religious exemption. The agency must now pay $5,000 in damages to Porter.  He wrote in his exemption request, “Christ is my supreme King and Lord and I am subject to His final authority alone in all matters of life, faith and conscience.” In Acts 5:29, the apostles said, “We ought to obey God rather than men.” Senator questions CDC's billion-dollar COVID-shot contract to Pfizer The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention awarded $1.24 billion in COVID-shot contracts to Pfizer last month. Republican Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin questioned this decision in a letter to Secretary of Health & Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr.  Johnson wrote, “The CDC's reported awarding of approximately $1.24 billion in new contracts to Pfizer for a vaccine linked to serious adverse events—including potentially the deaths of children—suggests [that the] CDC continues to fail to take its vaccine safety responsibilities seriously.” Pro-lifer Paul Vaughn got settlement over wrongful arrest Praise God! A pro-life, Christian father reached a $1 million settlement with the U.S. Department of Justice. The case involved his wrongful arrest under the Biden administration, reports Highlight Truth Ministries. Federal agents raided the Tennessee home of Paul Vaughn in 2022 and arrested him for his pro-life activism.  My family and I had the honor of meeting Paul Vaughn several years ago. He's an amazing Christian patriot. Steve Crampton, Senior Counsel at the Thomas More Society, said, “This settlement is not just about one family. It is a warning and a precedent. The weaponization of federal law enforcement against pro-lifers, against people of faith, against those who dare to stand for the unborn—that era is over.” Treasury has saved $99 million from going to dead recipients The U.S. Department of the Treasury implemented a new payment verification process.  The safeguard has already kept about $99 million from being sent to deceased individuals.  Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said, “Treasury has delivered on a key promise of President Trump's mandate to stop improper payments and fraud before money leaves the Treasury, and strengthen the integrity of the federal payment system.” 70th anniversary of America's “In God We Trust” motto Today is the 70th anniversary of when “In God We Trust” became America's motto. President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed the law on July 30, 1956. The resolution also required the motto to appear on all U.S. currency.   Democratic Representative Charles Bennett of Florida introduced the resolution. He said, “Nothing can be more certain than that our country was founded in a spiritual atmosphere and with a firm trust in God. ... In these days when imperialistic and materialistic communism seeks to attack and destroy freedom, we should continually look for ways to strengthen the foundations of our freedom.” Texan mother shares that her kids have contributed Here at The Worldview in 5 Minutes newscast, Leticia in Blum Texas wrote, “Adam, we are so thankful for your radio newscast. It is a great encouragement to us! We listen to it on the road or when we're at home. It is great to hear stories that I know wouldn't normally make it into traditional newscasts. “The Worldview is concise and informative! Thankful for the work you are doing!  Our four children -- Fletcher (15), Halen (12), Beck (10), and Murphy (7) -- contributed some of their money to our donation.” McVeda kids' mother in Montana contemplates why sponsor this newscast And Melissa McVeda, the mother of the four kids under the age of 11 in Great Falls, Montana who have raised hundreds of dollars for The Worldview selling chocolate chip cookies, iced tea and hand crocheted puppets on their dairy farm, weighed in with her thoughts. She wrote, “Adam, there are so many ministries that I would like to donate to: earnest missionaries and people hurting from natural disasters, among others. In light of those needs, it has been difficult for me to reconcile giving to The Worldview. And I imagine I'm not alone in that. “Because of my kids' fundraiser, which naturally has come to involve the entire family, I've spent time considering if The Worldview is worth the effort and funds we're putting into it. This is the primary answer I have seen:  “I would not KNOW about many of the other needs if it weren't for The Worldview in 5 Minutes! Your newscast is a connection point -- a bridge, if you will - between Christians and people in need around the world.  “Because of this ‘bridge,' I heard about the dear brother in Uganda who lost both of his hands to his Muslim family's persecution. And God stirred me to pray for his faith not to be shaken! Because of The Worldview, I heard about the steadfast pro-life sister in Britain who recently was killed. I rejoiced to hear how God used her faithfulness and I was stirred to consider if she has family who are grieving.  “The Worldview IS an important ministry. It is connecting those who have a supply to those who have needs as 2 Corinthians 8:13-15 articulates. It is also building the Body of Christ as brothers and sisters across the world hear about each other and pray for and encourage each other as a result.  “I remember when I first heard about The Worldview in 5 Minutes back in 2018. Kevin Swanson was sharing how he had personally invested $30,000/year of his own money to fund it when it started in 2015.  He had recently reached out to this man, Adam McManus, a talk show host down in San Antonio Texas, to see if Adam would voice the newscast. Kevin, obviously, had a vision for how God would use The Worldview. “One final note. Yesterday, when my kids and I heard you cite some of the large donations coming in, where people were giving one-time donations of $500 and $1,000, I realized that those donors were not just donating for the benefit that they, themselves, receive from The Worldview. They were also donating so that someone else could have the same benefits.  I praise God for the work He's doing through this newscast.” 11 Worldview listeners gave $1,775.96 And finally, by Wednesday night at 8:00pm Central, 11 Worldview listeners stepped up to the plate and invested their treasure to fund the 6-member team behind The Worldview for another year. Our thanks to Augustine in Auburn, California and Ben in Eureka, California – both of whom gave $20 as well as Carri in Oro Valley, Arizona who gave $25, and Bethany in Austin, Texas who gave $50. We're grateful to God for an anonymous donor in Oxford, New York and David in Houston, Texas – both of whom gave $100, and the McVeda Kids in Great Falls, Montana who gave another $160.96! We appreciate Steven in Ulster Park, New York and James in Lancaster, South Carolina – both of whom gave $200 as well as Leticia and her kids Fletcher, Halen, Beck, and Murphy in Blum, Texas who also gave $200. And we were touched by the generosity of Karl in Grand Rapids, Michigan who gave $700. Those 11 gifts add up to $1,775.96. Ready for our new grand total? Drum roll please. (drum roll sound effect) $ 81,119.96 (sound effect of people cheering) We need to raise $42,380.04 by midnight on Friday, July 31! That means in order to hit our final goal of $123,500 by tomorrow night, Friday, July 31st, God needs to prompt folks to give a seemingly impossible amount of $42,380.04 in order for the 6-member Worldview newscast team to be fully funded for another year. I see the finish line from here.  But, without God's help, we are not going to get across it! We still have matches open for the next 4 people who give a one-time gift of $500 because our friend in Naples, Florida will match your gift with another $2,000 of his own money. If those four donations come in, that would leave the difference of $38,380.  Listen. Could you be one of 38 people – just 38 -- to give a one-time gift of $1,000? Or, if that's not doable right now, would you consider a monthly pledge of $83.33? No gift is too big or too small.  We have received a $5 gift and a $2,400 gift.  If everyone does something, we can get there with the Lord's help. Just ask Him. “Lord, how has this newscast made a difference in my life?”  What is that worth to you?  We had a college student sacrificially give $500.  We've had Africans in Eswatini, who have very little funds, invest $10/month. And we've had kids raise hundreds of dollars through creative fundraisers selling cookies and hardboiled eggs and lemonade. Just go to TheWorldview.com, click on Give, select the dollar amount, and make sure to click on the “recurring” button if that's your wish.  This newscast team champions the truth and uses the Bible as our plumbline.  Don't forget: The Worldview in 5 Minutes is commercial free. We have no sponsors. Nor do we have a pay wall.  Anyone who wants to access this newscast can get it for free. So, all we have is you! What is God prompting you to do right now?

Live call in 800.930.2819 - Today we celebrate 2 important events: 1) International Day of Friendship: Proclaimed by the UN General Assembly in 2011 to promote peace and bridges between communities. 2) On this day in 1956, Pres. Dwight D. Eisenhower signed legislation making “In God We Trust” the official motto of the United States. The following year the phrase began appearing on $1 bills, and it was later added to larger denominations. The new motto replaced the country's long-standing unofficial one, “E pluribus unum” (Latin: “Out of many, one”), which was featured on the Great Seal of the United States, created in 1782. Read on to discover why the decision was controversial.

In this Somewhere in the Skies classic, we revisit one of ufology's most enduring mysteries: the alleged meetings between President Dwight D. Eisenhower and extraterrestrials. In light of today's whistleblowers, congressional hearings, and growing discussions surrounding non-human intelligence, Ryan welcomes author Paul Blake Smith back to examine the evidence behind this extraordinary claim. Together, they explore the alleged 1954 meeting at Edwards Air Force Base, secret communications, nuclear warnings, government cover-ups, and why this controversial story continues to resonate more than 70 years later.

C'est en effet ce jour-là que le président Dwight Eisenhower signe un document d'apparence banal, le National Aeronautics and Space Act et une institution, la National Aeronautics and Space Administration, de son acronyme NASA. Quatre lettres qui vont changer le destin de l'humanité. La création de la NASA, ce n'est pas une décision scientifique, c'est d'abord une réponse politique, presque militaire. Moins d'un an plus tôt, en octobre 1957, le monde découvrait stupéfait Spoutnik 1, le tout premier satellite lancé par l'Union soviétique. L'Amérique est sonnée, l'espace, jusque-là terrain qui faisait rêver, devient un champ de batailles idéologiques. Il faut réagir, réagir vite, organiser, centraliser, inventer. Et c'est là que naît la NASA, une agence civile, mais à vocation stratégique, entièrement tournée vers l'exploration spatiale. Elle récupère des chercheurs, des bases et des projets. Et en quelques mois, elle passe de la simple orbite à la Lune comme objectif. Derrière ces quatre lettres, c'est toute une épopée qui se dessine. Les fusées Saturn V, les missions Apollo, les navettes, les télescopes, les rovers sur Mars, les images de la Terre vues de l'espace et toujours ce fil tendu entre science et rêve. Le 29 juillet 1958, les Etats-Unis ont décidé de lever les yeux vers le ciel et d'y mettre les moyens. Avec une ambition simple, presque naïve mais toujours intacte, aller là où personne n'est encore allé. A demain dans TIME SHOT pour une nouvelle Minute Histoire. Hébergé par Audiomeans.

Robin Williams plays one of the five presidents in a story about a White House Butler making an impact on how each President handles and reacts to the civil rights movement. Williams, as President Dwight Eisenhower, is one of the first faces we see through the protagonist starting his journey at the West Wing.

America's First Alien Contact Wasn't Roswell!Six years before Roswell, something came down over Cape Girardeau, Missouri — and the government made sure you never heard about it. This week we sit down with author and researcher Paul Blake Smith to dig into his book The UFO Bombshell Before Roswell: Missouri's 1941 Crash and Cover-Up.Paul walks us through the wreckage, the witnesses, and the powerful names tied to the cover-up — FDR, a young Senator Harry Truman, and even whispers of Einstein. We get into what allegedly happened to the recovered craft and its occupants, why the Freemason connections in the case run so deep, and how MO41 may have quietly set the stage for the country's reaction to Roswell six years later.Paul is the author of eight books, including the bestsellers President Eisenhower's Close Encounters and The Nixon-Gleason Alien Encounter. This is a deep one — bring your tinfoil hat.

With Gatlab ditching the show yet again—presumably to fight his high blood pressure, bees, or the surveillance state—the resident degenerates are joined by Whiskey Trail, a self-proclaimed centerfire slave who hasn't shot a .22 since the Eisenhower administration. The gang dives headfirst into the Rimfire Rundown, drooling over over-priced 10/22 builds, custom Taiwanese bullpups, and Dan's newest prized possession: a Henry survival rifle that looks like a plastic shotgun stock and functions like a glorified Skittles holder. AR Drew brags about his factory Tippmann FRT setup with an integrally suppressed upper, while Dusky recaps his mediocre steel match performance and details his borderline obsessive 17-round .22 LR chrono tests for "science." Over on the Centerfire Detour, Dan manages to turn his Beretta 92X into a single-shot paperweight thanks to a suppressor setup that refuses to cycle, Dusky somehow hits a steel target at 100 yards with a subcompact .380 before completely failing on camera, and Whiskey Trail prepares his body for a Texas hog hunt while defending appendix-carrying a full-sized 1911.

Nick Lloyd surveys the diverse personalities of the French high command, beginning with Joseph Joffre, whose "earthiness" and calm "gravitas" were essential in absorbing the shock of the 1914 German invasion. While Joffre provided stability, the war also saw the meteoric rise and subsequent failure of Robert Nivelle, an artillery officer whose overconfidence in a "magic touch" led to the disastrous Nivelle Offensive in 1917. Following Nivelle, Philippe Pétainemerged as a "savior of France," noted for his deep connection to his troops and his refusal to sacrifice them in impossible situations. Finally, the narrative introduces Ferdinand Foch, the "Eisenhower of the first war," who possessed the energetic spirit and diplomatic skill to coordinate the multinational forces of the British, Americans, and French toward final victory in 1918. These leaders highlight the internal French struggle to reassert political primacy over military dictatorships while enduring outsized sacrifices on their own soil. (4)1914

What drives your day? Your calendar or your to-do list? Or perhaps your boss? The answer to that question will determine whether you are or will be productive each day.  Links: Email Me | Twitter | Facebook | Website | Linkedin   Learn more about the Time Sector System here Get Your Copy Of Your Time, Your Way: Time Well Managed, Life Well Lived Plan Your Week With Me: The Weekly Planning Matrix. The Working With… Weekly Newsletter Carl Pullein Learning Centre Carl's YouTube Channel Carl Pullein Coaching Programmes Subscribe to my Substack  The Working With… Podcast Previous episodes page   Script |426 Hello, and welcome to episode 426 of the Your Time, Your Way Podcast. A podcast to answer all your questions about productivity, time management, self-development, and goal planning. My name is Carl Pullein, and I am your host of this show.  If you were to look at the paper planners of the 1980s and 1990s, you would instantly see they were all built around your calendar. Some of the more sophisticated planners had a to-do list and a place to keep notes. Most were just a vertical list of times and the day's date with a small area at the bottom for notes.  And there was a reason for that. People working in the 20th century understood that no matter what you wanted to do each day, it would require time.  Dropping your kids off at school likely involved a twenty-minute detour on your regular commute. Restocking your paper-clip box would require you to walk to the stationery cupboard to fill it, another ten minutes, and then there was all the travelling around to meet people. (No Teams or Zoom in those days). Needs drove how we managed our time, and your diary was the only tool that could prevent you from overloading yourself. You could see in an instant whether you could sit down and type out the report or proposal. Because, given that there were no smartphones or tablets, and laptops were prohibitively expensive, you also had to be in the right place in order to do much of your work. I fondly remember the days when I left work at the end of the day, and there was no way a client, colleague or boss could contact me until I arrived for work the next day. My work Email was only on my work desktop, and that was in the office.  Now, somewhere along the timeline, those barriers have been broken down. Your work can, and does, follow you home.  I recently saw a before-and-after picture of people sitting around a resort swimming pool in the 1990s and one in the 2020s.  In the 1990s, people were sitting around the pool talking or reading a book. In the 2020s, people were staring at their phones. No talking, no books. Just eyes glued to a screen.  It's quite sad really to see. It's also why your clients, colleagues and bosses are on holiday with you.  If you're carrying your work life on your phone, then there's no escape at all. It would require a superhuman effort to avoid occasionally looking at your emails and messages. I know some people can do it; most cannot.  Today's episode is about how to put your calendar back to where it belongs: being your primary productivity and time management tool.  So, to get us started, let me hand you over to the recently returned Mystery Podcast Voice for this week's question.  This week's question comes from Judy. Judy asks, Hi Carl, I've heard you say many times that your calendar should be your primary productivity tool. I really struggle with that because I have so many tasks to do, and so I find myself beginning and ending my day in my task manager. Do you have any suggestions on how to make my calendar my primary focus? Hi Judy, thank you for your question. There is a problem with task managers today, and that is their sophistication.  Before we went digital, if you used a to-do list, you needed to handwrite it each day. While this may not have been very convenient, it forced you to only write out the tasks that needed to be done.  Remembering to watch a TV show or read a newspaper article would rarely, if ever, be written on a to-do list unless it was something you genuinely wanted to do.  Even then, when I think back, I knew that The A Team would be on a Saturday at 6:00 pm, and that Ally McBeal was on a Sunday night at 9:00 pm. And I was always at home at those times, and if I wasn't, because there were no streaming services, I wasn't going to see the show then unless I set the video recorder, and to do that you needed a doctorate in Theoretical Physics. Today's digital To-do lists are fantastic. You can add tags and labels, set start and due dates, make tasks recurring, and create multiple lists.  All great features.  And if your to-do list can do all that, what's the point of using a calendar? You can put events and date reminders into your task manager and have one single place to see everything you have to do.  Doing things this way immediately poses a problem, though. You remove the time constraints a calendar gives you.  With a calendar, you can see your day as a whole. You get your 24 hours, and if you tried to over-schedule yourself, you would instantly see it with multiple appointments at the same time. You can then act and reschedule things or cancel a meeting or two. With a task manager, you cannot see that. All you get is a list of things to do. And if you're not curating that list each day, the list just gets longer and longer.  Then you find important must-do tasks get lost among low-value, would-like-to-do-someday tasks. This then requires a lot of time to sort and organise.  But rather more damaging is what this does to your sense of control. Maintaining all this in your task manager creates a sense of overwhelm, and the increase in decision-making required leaves you feeling exhausted at the end of the day.  When you use your calendar as your primary productivity tool, you only need to decide what type of work you will do at any given time in the day.  For example, imagine it's the tax reporting season, and you need to get all your finances in order. Not a small task, and something you likely need four or five hours to complete.  If you were to have a task in your task manager that says “do taxes”, that'll be a task you will keep rescheduling. It's not a pleasant task to do, and you know it will take you four or five hours to do.  However, if you managed this on your calendar, you could schedule a couple of hours on Saturday morning one weekend and a further two hours the following weekend. Now you know you have the time protected. All you have to do is turn up and do the work.  Not turning up and doing it is an entirely different problem. That's not respecting your calendar, which is never a good habit to have.  One other thing you will notice about scheduling this kind of work on your calendar is you see it there well before the time, and that helps you to mentally prepare for the task.  Perhaps you decide to get all the paperwork ready on the Friday evening so you are ready to go first thing Saturday.  On a task list, a task like this will likely be buried away somewhere, and you only see it when you do your daily planning that day.  I've always found historical figures' to-do lists fascinating. People like President Eisenhower, Leonardo Da Vinci, Johnny Cash, John Lennon, Maya Angelou and Margaret Thatcher's to-do lists never contained any dates.  Now, people like President Eisenhower and Margaret Thatcher had diary secretaries. These were people who managed their calendars and informed them at the start and end of each day what their schedule was for that day.  This is something I've found Siri and Alexa superb at. I can walk into my office in the morning and ask what my appointments for the day are. I can also ask them to block out time tomorrow or Friday for doing a specific piece of work.  With AI coming on board, that feature can only get better. If I say to Siri, “schedule a deep work session on Friday morning at 9:30”, Siri will inform me that the cleaner will be coming at 9:30 am, and I can decide to keep the focus session or change it to a time I will not be interrupted.  Each week I write a script for this podcast. I usually do this on a Thursday morning after my meetings. Today, my last meeting was cancelled, so I was able to get to writing earlier.  I haven't needed to look at my to-do list once yet, and it's already 11:00 am. My day began at 8:00 am with a one-hour meeting. It finished at 9:30 am. Originally, my plan was to finish my meetings at 10:15 and begin writing at 10:30 am. As it happened, because of the cancellation, I was able to begin writing at 9:45.  I don't need to change my calendar; I knew that once my meetings were finished, my next task was to write. So I did.  So where should a task list fit into your overall system?  Task managers are great at collecting stuff you have to do. Far better than calendars, as a calendar will demand a date at the very least. Task managers don't need a date. You just add a task to the inbox, and there it will sit until you decide to do something with it.  If you follow the Time Sector System, you process your task manager every 24 to 48 hours, and when you do so, you decide when you will do the task. It will either be this week, next week, later this month or next month.  On your calendar, you protect time for the different categories of work you do. For instance, if you write proposals, then you would have time protected on your calendar for writing proposals. You will likely also have time set aside for dealing with your communications (emails and messages, etc.), and admin.  Then at the appointed time, you use the tags or labels in your task manager to pull up the tasks that match that category of work.  That's an oversimplification of the system. If you want to learn more about the Time Sector System, I recommend checking out the course I have for it. I will put the details in the show notes.  This ensures you are not over-scheduling yourself or attempting to do more than you can do. It also teaches you to say no. You can see whether or not you have the time and space to do the work being asked of you. If you consistently follow this method, backlogs no longer grow, and you stay reasonably on top of your work, although being on top of your work at all times is rarely achievable.  The biggest, more positive change you could make to your productivity system is to put your calendar back in its proper place. Namely, make your calendar your primary productivity tool and use your task manager as a support tool that tells you what to do when you sit down to work.  I should add that for some of you this change will be uncomfortable. If you've allowed your calendar to fill up with meetings, leaving you no time to do the work you are meant to do, sticking your head in the sand and ignoring it won't make the problem go away.  This is when you may have to have a conversation with your boss. More than five hours of meetings a day, and you're not going to be able to do much work beyond responding to messages. When you take into account toilet breaks, making coffee, and your lunchtime, there's not going to be much time left for anything else.  I hope that has helped, Judy.

Republican Opposition: The Intellectual Force of Robert Taft and the Rise of McCarthy GUEST: Nick BunkerSenator Robert Taft, known as "Mr. Conservative," was a dominant intellectual force in the Republican Party, preparing for a potential 1952 presidential run. Moving away from pre-war isolationism, Taft became a staunch "Asia first" advocate, pushing for the defense of Taiwan with the U.S. Navy. This stance created a sharp divide with Dean Acheson, who feared being branded an "imperialist power." While Taft provided the intellectual foundation for Republican policy, Joe McCarthy emerged as the "wild side" of this movement. Driven by pure ambition, McCarthy hijacked the Republican agenda by shifting the focus from domestic "socialism" to communist subversion within the State Department. Meanwhile, Dwight D. Eisenhower, then president of Columbia University, watched from the sidelines with despair. He worried about the "chaos and confusion" in Washington, the demoralization of the military due to budget cuts, and the lack of a clear strategy for Asia. (3)

Oil may dominate the headlines about the Middle East, but the real power often flows through water. Three narrow passages - the Suez Canal, the Strait of Hormuz, and Bab el-Mandeb – shape how the world moves. In times of crisis, they've become chokepoints, disrupting global trade, rattling markets, and shifting the balance of power way beyond the region. In this episode, three stories from these waterways… how they've helped define the modern Middle East and, as we've seen recently with Hormuz, the economic currents that affect us all.Guests:Alex Von Tunzelmann, author of Blood and Sand: Suez, Hungary, and Eisenhower's Campaign for PeaceHarold Lee Wise, author of Inside the Danger Zone: The U.S. Military in the Persian Gulf, 1987-1988Farea Al-Muslimi, Yemen and Gulf researcher at Chatham House in LondonSupport shows like Throughline with NPR+.
