Each day has its own significance, but Good Friday is very important.D: Right! That's when the procession of the Epitaphios takes place, isn't it?E: Exactly! On Good Friday evening, we follow the Epitaphios through the streets, holding candles.D: And what about Holy Saturday?E: On Holy Saturday, just before midnight, everyone goes to church for the Resurrection. When the priest says “Christ is Risen,” we light our candles with the Holy Light, the bells ring, and in many places there are fireworks too.D: And then you crack the red eggs, right?E: Yes! Cracking the eggs is one of the most fun traditions. And of course, afterwards we eat magiritsa!D: Magiritsa… that's the soup you eat after the Resurrection, right?E: Exactly! It's a traditional soup made with various kinds of meat and greens. Some people love it, others not so much!D: And on Easter Sunday everyone eats lamb on the spit!E: Yes! We gather with family and friends, roast lamb and kokoretsi, and dance traditional dances.D: That sounds wonderful! Do you also have traditional Easter sweets?E: Of course! Tsourekia and koulourakia are the most well-known.D: What's tsoureki?E: It's a sweet and fluffy bread with aromatic spices like mahlepi and mastiha.D: I definitely have to try that! But usually, people celebrate Easter in the villages, right?E: Right, many people leave the cities and go to their villages to celebrate with relatives. The atmosphere there is even more traditional and festive!D: How lovely! I'd really like to celebrate Easter in a Greek village too.E: We can celebrate together! This year, in fact, Orthodox and Catholic Easter fall on the same day. So we can go to my village together. What do you say?D: Do you think I can still make it?E: Absolutely!

How can we bring wisdom to those with power and power to those with wisdom?  If we were to step into elder hood and bring the best of ourselves to the table, could we create governance structures that would help to heal our cultural divides, create equity and guide is wisely through the coming crisis? Jenny Grettve believes we can and has set up a global council to make this happen.  Jenny is a good friend of the podcast. She joined us in episode #228 to talk about designing and building a school along Doughnut economic lines and then again in episode #249 to talk about the evolution of a Mothering Economy based on the values of compassion and care for future generations.  Jenny is an author, philosopher, systems thinker and designer, author of several books, most recently the Mothering Economy that we talked about the last time we met. Then, she was leading WhenWhen, a new feminist design agency that creates system demonstrators to test ideas generated by global researchers working with the climate crisis and sustainable life.  She was still working there last November when Donald Trump managed to take the US Presidency again. Amidst all the shock and horror of that moment, I saw a post Jenny put up on LinkedIn, proposing the creation of a Global Council of Women as a way to bring forward the values that our world needs at this moment of total transformation.  I signed up on the spot and then asked Jenny to come and talk to us about it, so that the idea might spread in the Accidental Gods spheres.  And then as I was doing the reading for this episode, I found that Jenny had started the year in a new post - that she is now Head of Transformation at a European Council funded organisation called EIT - that's European Innovation and Technology - Culture and Creativity.  Which means Jenny is now taking the wisdom of creativity right into the heart of the bureaucracy that sustains the super organism, at least in the EU.  So here we are, considering the nature of wisdom and elder hood, how we might overcome the gender divides that so assail us in service to life - and how to bring creative ideas deep into the heart of machine.  Please know that the Council is not only for women - the first meeting is exploring whole, healthy masculinity and how it can be prioritised in this world. Which feels like such an integral part of our thinking now.  So please do join - the link is below.  Women Council https://www.womencouncil.world/Jenny Grettve https://www.jennygrettve.com/EIT Culture and Creativity https://eit-culture-creativity.eu/Jenny on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/jennygrettve/EIT Culture and Creativity on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/company/eit-culture-creativity/Jenny in Episode 228 https://accidentalgods.life/evolving-education-building-a-doughnut-school-with-jenny-grettve-of-whenwhen/Jenny in Episode 249 https://accidentalgods.life/finding-the-courage-to-care-ways-to-build-a-mothering-economy-with-author-jenny-grettve/

The European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT) is pleased to announce the achievement of training 100,000 direct learners and trainers through the European Battery Alliance Academy, implemented by EIT InnoEnergy. Launched in 2022 as one of the models ahead of Europe's Net-Zero Industry Academies following a mandate from the European Commission, the Academy addresses the needs of a rapidly evolving industry and its workforce. Battery Academy Milestone: 100,000 Learners The European Institute of Innovation & Technology (EIT), as part of Horizon Europe, is the only EU innovation instrument dedicated to integrating education and skills with research and business. By building long-term partnerships called, EIT Knowledge and Innovation Communities (KICs) between business, education, and research, the EIT has been able to amass a large portfolio of industry-focused skilling programmes and academies that have trained over 880,000 learners. EIT Battery Academy The European Battery Alliance Academy provides tailored training services to equip new talent entering the evolving battery sector and enhance the technical expertise of experienced professionals, developed in collaboration with industry experts at the European Battery Alliance. Technical courses developed for engineers and technicians such as Battery Management Systems and Battery Technician were the most subscribed courses, with 27,000 learners completing the latter. Foundational courses such as the Battery Fundamentals and Battery Storage Basics were also in high demand reflecting the growing interest from the workforce to gain the foundational skills needed to work in the sector. The Academy courses, taken online or through in-person training in 10 languages, have had a pan-European impact with 27,500 learners trained in Germany, 21,000 in France, 11,000 in Spain, and 8,000 in Poland and Romania respectively. Stefan Dobrev, Chairman of the EIT Governing Board, added, 'The EIT continues to address the skills gap in Europe, orchestrating its large ecosystem and expertise to offer upskilling services to thousands of workers, innovators, students and entrepreneurs. By integrating education and skilling programmes into the innovation landscape, the EIT stands out; ensuring that Europe's talent pool remains competitive and ready to power the technologies of tomorrow for a more sustainable future." Oana Penu, Director of the EIT InnoEnergy Skills Institute said, "Equipping Europe's workforce with the right skills is a necessity for Europe's competitiveness in strategic sectors. Reaching the milestone of 100,000 trained learners is a testament to the power of targeted, industry-focused training initiatives. However, there is still a long way to go to equip the workforce with all the skills needed for the green transition. The European Battery Academy has set a new standard for collaboration between industry and academia." The Academy has established a blueprint for future Net-Zero Academies, laying the foundations for the European Solar Academy, which was launched in 2024 and further academies to be launched under the Net Zeros Industries Act. Following the successful completion of training 100,000 learners, the European Battery Alliance Academy and its partners will expand its upskilling services to sourcing, hiring, onboarding, and retention in a holistic approach to meet industry needs beyond reskilling.

The European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT) has successfully launched 16 innovation hubs across Central, Eastern and Southern Europe dedicated to tackling Europe's regional innovation divide. The new hubs, known as EIT Community Hubs are an integral part of the EIT Regional Innovation Scheme and have been launched in the following countries: Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czechia, Estonia, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Malta, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Slovenia, Türkiye, Ukraine, and Spain and Portugal covering their respective EU's Outermost Regions. The new EIT Community Hubs will serve as a central gateway to Europe's largest innovation ecosystem, supporting local innovators and entrepreneurs to scale their innovations and launch new products to the market. EIT Community Hubs represent all EIT Knowledge and Innovation Communities (KICs) under one roof, boosting cooperation among local businesses, education authorities, and research organisations, enhancing the region's competitiveness and contributing to Europe's economic growth and competitiveness. Stefan Dobrev, Chairman of the EIT Governing Board, said, 'The EIT Regional Innovation Scheme has grown in the past ten years to be one of the most successful innovation instruments connecting and collaborating, between researchers, entrepreneurs and companies in the widening countries." "RIS-eligible countries currently account for 60% of the EIT's total participation, well above the Horizon Europe average of 40% - and many RIS-supported ventures have realised their potential and found breakthrough commercial success. This year we celebrate ten years of impact, ten years of helping grow companies and launching innovations to the market," said Dobrev. By connecting regional actors, innovators, and partners to Europe's largest innovation ecosystem, the EIT RIS enhances innovation capacity in low-performing regions and fosters synergies between new networks and local or regional smart specialisation strategies. A Decade of Impact 2024 marks ten years of impact for the EIT Regional Innovation Scheme - a dedicated programme offering tailor-made support and widened regional outreach to 'moderate' and 'emerging' innovator countries as designated by the European Innovation Scoreboard. Today, the EIT, under Horizon Europe is strongly addressing Europe's innovation divide, having invested over a billion euros into building innovation ecosystems across Europe. Over 700 innovation projects have been supported by the EIT Reginal Innovation Scheme, helping to launch over 500 products and services to the market, and supporting over 3,360 start-ups and scale-up including creating over 250 new start-ups. The EIT Regional Innovation Scheme's mid-term evaluation results were recently published, documenting the programme's effectiveness in strengthening the capacity of innovation enablers and actors, such as business accelerators, incubators, start-ups, scale-ups, SMEs, and educational and research institutions. The study also notes that results achieved by the EIT RIS often exceed expectations and highlight the interconnected approach of the EIT Model and the EIT's local presence as critical to its effectiveness. critical to its effectiveness. In addition to the sixteen established EIT Community Hubs, further innovation hubs will be launched in the following countries: Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Serbia, and France, representing the EU's Outermost Regions by the end of 2025.

Tysdag 3. desember skal den nye abortlova opp til avstemning i Stortinget. Menneskeverd har satt i gong ei underskriftskampanje mot utviding av abortgrensa frå 12 til 18 veker. Underskriftskampanjen har på under ei veke fått over 38 400 underskrifter. -Det er fleire eksempel i historia på at underskriftskampanjer har hatt ei stor betydning for kva beslutning ein landar på, så dette er ei muligheit for befolkninga til å gje ei direkte melding til politikarane utanom val. Det vi opplever er at mange reagerer på at desse endringane skjer utan at det er opplyst om kor radikale desse endringane er, ved å utvide abortgrensa til veke 18 då fosteret er nær levedyktig, fortel Morten Dahle Stærk, generalsekretær i Menneskeverd. Eit foster sitt hjarte startar å slå når det er tre veker gamalt, og alle organ er ferdig utvikla når det er sju veker. Etter 12 veker utviklar og modnast organa meir og meir, og einaste grunnen til at eit foster ikkje reddast før veke 18 er at lungene ikkje er ferdig utvikla. I den nye lova er det fleire underpunkt som skal stemmast over, blant anna forsterka rett til veiledning både i forkant og etterkant av abort. Det skal også stemmast over at det å kunne reservere seg som helsevesen for gjennomføring av abort skal lovfestast. -Vi meinar at det er fleire gode forbedringar med det nye lovforslaget, men at dei kan forbedrast utan å utvide abortgrensa til veke 18, seier Dahle Stærk. Underskriftskampanjen til Menneskeverd på nettsida abortgrensen.no er tilgjengeleg for underskrifter til iallfall 27. november, og så kjem det an på når Menneskeverd får eit møte for overlevering av underskriftene til Helsekomiteen.

Failed the Civil FE Exam once? Twice? Five times? Well, "don't waste a failure." That's a mantra Ryan Turley adopted to pass this thing on his 5th attempt!

The power industry has long been lamenting its aging workforce. While turnover has been happening for years, there remains a large percentage of power professionals on the verge of retirement. Furthermore, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts faster than average job growth for engineering occupations. That means experienced workers with the skills needed by the power industry are in high demand and can be choosy when looking for new opportunities. They can also demand higher compensation to make a change. Meanwhile, relative youngsters coming out of college and trade schools, while often having the fundamental knowledge to do power jobs, don't usually have the experience needed to add immediate value to an organization. The situation is forcing companies to implement workforce development strategies. Mechanical Dynamics & Analysis (MD&A) is a company that offers a full-service alternative to original equipment manufacturer services, parts, and repairs for steam, gas, and industrial turbines and generators. Like other power industry companies, MD&A has found it challenging to recruit experienced engineers. “When we started out back in the early 80s, we started out as a company who tended to hire engineers who were very experienced. And back around 2009, we started to realize that those people were becoming a little harder to find,” Charles Monestere, general manager for Technical Services with MD&A, said as a guest on The POWER Podcast. “So, we started hiring a few engineers a year—some years one person, some years two or three people, maybe even a little bit more—and we developed an in-house program where we would bring in generally recent graduates, within a year or two or three out of school, and put them through some classroom training, but then a structured on-the-job training where we would have weekly meetings reviewing the activities on the job sites,” he explained. “And we'd put the young engineers with very experienced project managers and technical directors that are at the sites—the field engineers who have been doing this for many years.” Called the Engineers in Training (EIT) program, the instruction tasked learners with becoming proficient at and gaining knowledge on many different technical aspects of the job. “A good part of the work is on the job sites; however, there is some structured classroom training, which is integrated into it,” Monestere said. In recent years, finding experienced people has become even more difficult, leading MD&A to increase its hiring into the EIT program. “We're actually targeting about 10 people a year now,” said Monestere. “We're just hiring in five more this summer, and then, probably another five or so at the end of the year. So, that's the direction we're heading.” Colin Baker, one of MD&A's newest field engineers, participated in the program and found it very worthwhile. “Working with all these really great and really smart engineers, you get all of their experience firsthand, and you learn what's right and what's wrong,” he said. “Also, with all these classes that you're put through, you use all of that knowledge and you learn where to apply it when you're actually out in the field.” Meanwhile, Baker said the program also offered him an opportunity to network within the industry and in the company. Baker said he now has multiple experts he can contact when he runs into problems. “Especially with MD&A, you can always reach out to anyone for help. Everyone is pretty much readily available for any kind of questions or something of that matter,” he said. “I'm still very new in the industry and I'm not going to know everything. I know people who do know most things, so it's good to get these kinds of resources.”

Mike sits down with Matt Davis and Casey Hester to talk about a unique and collaborative opportunity the civil group has been doing for a longstanding healthcare client. Late last year, Casey fielded a question asking if SSR had the capability to perform a parking lot assessment. Not positive of our capabilities, he responded with a confident YES and immediately called Andrew Johnson, Principal for our Civil group.
