This week… "The big picture framework helps us to organize ourselves inside of the details, but the details - the Mercury and Gemini of it all - direct our possibility. This is about our attention and our awareness; how we grow, or the meaning that we're making and what we do with our experiences, really needs us to pay attention to the details."This week-ahead reading for Dec 1-7, 2025 is an excerpt from this week's⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Somatic Space class⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ with Renee Sills.

Send us a textIn this deep and wide-ranging conversation, we sit with Erphaan Alves — artist, songwriter, performer, and one of the most influential voices shaping modern soca. From his earliest days as a child performer in Chaguanas, to writing for giants like Machel Montano and Kes, to creating anthems like Bumper Like Rain, Overdue, No Abla, Background, and Spirit, Erphaan charts the full story of his journey in a way he has never shared before.We explore his upbringing, the impact of his parents' sacrifices, his father's pivotal role in his career, and how early interactions with icons like Bunji Garlin, Scrunter, Blaxx, Shal Marshall, Peter C. Lewis, Tambu Herbert, and others shaped his path. EA also breaks down the inside stories behind his biggest records: how Bumper Like Rain sat for years before release, how Overdue was born during a difficult period, and how No Habla became a year-round anthem and a symbol of his “no seasons” philosophy.He explains what the industry used to be, what it is now, and why soca must move beyond its Carnival dependency. We talk childhood competitions, the pressures of Junior Monarch, writing over 40 songs in a year, navigating disappointment, creating timeless grooves, and building a loyal fan base outside the season.Erphaan also shares bold insights on identity, influence, spirituality, artistry, musical education, and the evolution of Trinidad and Tobago culture — with powerful reflections on legacy, discipline, humility, inspiration, and staying true to himself.Topics Include:– Growing up around Calypso & Soca legends– The influence of Bunji Garlin, Shadow, Kitchener & Scrunter– EA's father's role, sacrifices, and guidance– The story of EA's early start, competitions & mentorship– How writing hit songs opened industry doors– In Your Eyes, Bumper Like Rain, Overdue, No Abla, Spirit, Background– The creative process: melodies, inspiration, destiny & discipline– Why “No Seasons” is vital for soca's future– Building Team EA and his own cultural ecosystem– Navigating fame, pressure, expectations & evolution– EA's views on purpose, influence, authenticity & growth– Behind-the-scenes stories with Machel, Kes, Shal, Blacks & more– Calypso vs Soca, legacy, education & Caribbean identity– The deeper meaning behind Mas Go Play and EA's storytellingThis episode is a masterclass in artistry, discipline, culture, and the journey of a modern Caribbean creative.Click the link in my bio for the full episode.#coriesheppardpodcast #ErphaanAlves #soca #trinidadandtobago #caribbeanculture #podcast

The morning after Airbase's sale closed, Aneal Vallurupalli woke up to a very different org chart. Before the deal, roughly a third to almost half of the company reported to him, including onboarding, professional services, account management, customer success, and financial services revenue, he tells us. The day after, those teams rolled into the acquirer and “I have my EA reporting to me. And that was it,” he tells us. It left him thinking, “wait a minute… I'm not making any decisions anymore,” he tells us.That jolt became a pivot point. Rather than chase another title, he went looking for roles where finance could architect the whole engine—customer journey included. It's the same instinct that once led him to peel back Airbase's retention problem: starting with GRR by segment, then listening to Gong calls and mapping every step from contract signature to renewal, he tells us. Retention, he concluded, is almost never a single-issue story.Today, four weeks into his CFO role at Drata, it already feels like “the third quarter operating” there, he tells us. He talks about “ruthless prioritization” as a muscle first trained in high-level tennis and investment banking, where time, not money, was the real constraint.Now he wants finance to be the company's best “so what” team—not just reporting variances, but offering an informed view on what to do next. Even with AI, he is wary of “tool proliferation” and scattered agents, arguing that every business must choose deliberately what sits centrally on its data and what remains at the edge.

Effective altruism is a philosophical and social movement that uses empirical data to maximize the impact of charitable efforts. Those who champion EA praise its methodological framework for maximizing the effectiveness of donations, thus ensuring equal consideration for all individuals. Those who challenge EA argue that its emphasis on measurable outcomes may overlook important yet hard-to-quantify causes, potentially restricting the scope of what's considered beneficial. Now we debate: Does the Effective Altruism Movement Get Giving Right?    Arguing Yes: Peter Singer, Author of “The Most Good You Can Do”; Philosopher and Emeritus Professor of Bioethics at the University Center for Human Values at Princeton University   Arguing No: Alice Crary, Co-Editor of “The Good it Promises, The Harm it Does: Critical Essays on Effective Altruism”; University Distinguished Professor of Philosophy at The New School for Social Research  Emmy award-winning journalist John Donvan moderates    Visit our Substack to watch more insightful debates and subscribe to our newsletter.   Learn more about your ad choices.

Today is Lā Kūʻokoʻa, the Hawaiian Kingdom's Independence Day! On this day in 1843, the Kingdom of Hawaiʻi was officially recognized as a sovereign nation by Great Britain and France in the Anglo-Franco Proclamation. In this special episode, we speak with ʻĪmaikalani Winchester to hear the history behind Lā Kūʻokoʻa. ʻĪmai is a lead organizer for the annual celebration of Lā Hoʻihoʻi Ea at Thomas Square. These two national holidays are linked, both commemorating landmark moments of the Kingdom's history in the same year 1843. So in this episode, in commemoration of today's holiday, ʻĪmai is guiding us through this watershed moment of Hawaiian history. Tags: Hawaiʻi, Hawai'i, Hawaii

Discuții aprinse în Parlamentul de la Chișinău pe marginea incidentului cu survolarea ilegală a spațiului aerian al Republicii Moldova de către șase drone rusești. Cele mai multe discuții au vizat drona de tip Gerbera, care a aterizat aproape intactă pe acoperișul unei case din nordul țării, fără să provoace pagube. Veronica Gherbovețchi a discutat cu mai mulți parlamentari de la Chișinău. Temele ediției: - Pentru a doua oară în 2025, Președinția a retras cetățenia unor persoane active în Grupul Operativ al Trupelor Ruse (GOTR) din regiunea transnistreană. După un prim caz în iulie — când cinci bărbați au rămas fără cetățenie pentru că s-au înrolat voluntar în structuri militare ruse dislocate ilegal — alte cinci persoane pierd acum cetățenia Moldovei, după ce autoritățile au constatat că aceasta a fost obținută prin încălcarea procedurilor legale. Liliana Barbăroșie are detalii. - Informația despre descoperirea unui arsenal militar într-un camion la vama dintre Republica Moldova și România este folosită deja la Moscova. Purtătoarea de cuvât a minsterului Rus de externe acuză Republica Moldova de trafic de arme. Ce spune Maria Zaharova, aflați de la Vitalie Cojocari, jurnalist Euronews România, în ”Cronica lui Vitalie”  - Invitata specială a emisiunii de azi este jurnalista și scriitoarea Paula Eruzanu. Ea este autoarea unei cărți recent apărute la Editura Cartier din Chișinău sub titlul, „Aicea-i și raiul, și iadul”. Cartea surprinde un veac de istorie trăită și povestită de o întreagă galerie de personaje care au traversat istoria recentă a acestui ținut – de la Basarabia parte a Rusiei Țariste la Basarabia românească, de la Uniunea Sovietică la Republica Moldova, de la al doilea război mondial la Afganistan și războiul din Ucraina. Este o colecție de mărturii care, puse una lângă alta, ca un puzzle, alcătuiesc o istorie a locului. Un interviu realizat de Ovidiu Nahoi. - Poziția României în cazul planului de pace pentru Ucraina este de a continua negocierile pentru a ajunge la o pace durabilă. Trebuie să fie luate în calcul și interesele de securitate ale Republicii Moldova, spune ministra de Externe Oana Țoiu. - Estonia va deschide anul viitor o ambasadă la Chișinău. - Parlamentul a adoptat în lectură finală denunțarea acordului care permitea funcționarea în Republica Moldova a centrelor culturale rusești. - Agenția Franceză pentru Dezvoltare (AFD) continuă să susțină Chișinăul în reformele și în agenda de integrare europeană Știrile zilei: Poziția României în cazul planului de pace pentru Ucraina este una clară de a continua negocierile pentru a ajunge la o pace durabilă în timp, a declarat ministra de Externe a României, Oana Țoiu, subliniind că trebuie să fie luate în calcul și interesele de securitate ale Republicii Moldova. „Poziția României, așa cum a fost foarte clar exprimată și de președintele Nicușor Dan, este una clară de a continua negocierile pentru a ajunge la o pace care să fie și durabilă în timp. Trebuie să fim atenți și la interesele de securitate ale Republicii Moldova, pentru că acest punct pentru România este extrem de important și stabilitatea regiunii noastre depinde de asta”, a afirmat Oana Țoiu, în Parlament, transmite Agerpres. *** Estonia va deschide o ambasadă în Republica Moldova anul viitor. „Moldova se află deja pe calea aderării la Uniunea Europeană, dar putem face și mai mult pentru a o sprijini”, a afirmat ministrul de externe al Estoniei, Margus Tsahkna, citat de un comunicat de presă al Externelor de la Chișinău. „O veste foarte bună pentru țara noastră!”, a declarat ministrul de externe Mihai Popșoi. „Estonia este un partener important al Republicii Moldova, oferind sprijin în diverse domenii, în special integrarea europeană, e-guvernare, securitate cibernetică și educație”. *** Parlamentul a adoptat în lectură finală denunțarea acordului care permitea funcționarea în Republica Moldova a centrelor culturale rusești. Astfel, Centrul Rus de Știință și Cultură din Chișinău ar putea fi închis în vara anului 2026, scrie TV8. Ministrul de Externe Mihai Popșoi a declarat că următoarea etapă este semnarea decretului de către președinta Maia Sandu, după care autoritățile ruse vor fi informate că acordul nu va fi prelungit. Înțelegerea expiră în vară, iar legislația prevede notificarea cu 6 luni înainte, întrucât acordul nu poate fi denunțat unilateral. Centrul Cultural Rus este administrat direct de Ambasada Federației Ruse la Chișinău și beneficiază de finanțare din partea Agenției Ruse Rossotrudnicestvo, care este subordonată direct președinției ruse. Această agenție a fost inclusă în sancțiuni internaționale și a fost desemnată de Uniunea Europeană drept „principala entitate de stat responsabilă de promovarea puterii soft a Kremlinului și a influenței sale hibride, inclusiv prin susținerea conceptului denumit „Russkiy Mir”, „Lumea rusă”. *** Parlamentul a aprobat rectificarea bugetului de stat pentru anul curent, principalele modificări vizează redistribuirea banilor pentru acoperirea necesităților salariale ale angajaților din sectorul bugetar, alocarea fondurilor pentru compensarea facturilor la energie electrică pentru populație, precum și alte măsuri sociale, se arată într-un comunicat. Conform Bugetului rectificat, deficitul bugetar constituie 5,2 % din PIB. *** Agenția Franceză pentru Dezvoltare (AFD) va continua să susțină Republica Moldova în reformele necesare cetățenilor și agendei de integrare europeană, au dat asigurări directorul regional al Agenției, Mathieu Vasseur, și ambasadoarea Franței în Republica Moldova, Dominique Waag, în cadrul unei întrevederi pe care au avut-o cu prim-ministrul Alexandru Munteanu. Agenția Franceză pentru Dezvoltare (AFD) oferă Republicii Moldova sprijin în domeniul energetic - proiectul INSPIREE, care este o inițiativă pentru dezvoltarea infrastructurii publice sustenabile prin renovări pentru eficiență energetică, presupune renovarea energetică a 30 de clădiri publice, dintre care 16 instituții de învățământ superior și 14 spitale raionale. De rezultatele proiectului vor beneficia circa 200 de mii de cetățeni, iar economiile estimate vor fi de 2 milioane de euro anual. Un alt proiect, în valoare de 25 milioane de euro, ține de creșterea utilizării energiei verzi în Republica Moldova, eficiența energetică și protecția consumatorilor. De asemenea, Agenția va finanța proiecte de reabilitare a sistemelor de irigații în valoare de peste 44 milioane de euro. Oficialii s-au mai referit la susținerea acordată de AFD în sectorul de aprovizionare cu apă și canalizare, împădurire, protecție socială, inovare și antreprenoriat. Alte priorități țin de reformarea justiției, consolidarea statului de drept și atragerea investițiilor franceze în economia națională. Un oficiu al Agenției Franceze pentru Dezvoltare a fost deschis la Chișinău în februarie 2022. Grupul AFD a devenit principalul partener financiar al Guvernului moldovean și al Comisiei Europene pentru pilonul de investiții al Planului de Creștere, de 1,9 miliarde de euro, oferit Republicii Moldova de UE. *** Consiliul Concurenței a amendat firma olandeză care operează aplicația rusească de taxi Yandex Go cu aproape 800 de mii de lei moldovenești, echivalentul a 40 mii euro, pentru refuzul de a oferi autorităților informații despre felul în care este folosită aplicația de taxi. „Solicitările de informații reprezintă un instrument esențial pentru colectarea probelor necesare în investigațiile privind posibile încălcări ale legislației concurențiale. Consiliul Concurenței are dreptul de a solicita întreprinderilor furnizarea promptă și completă a documentelor sau informațiilor relevante, indiferent de formatul acestora”, se arată în comunicatul de presă. De-a lungul timpului au existat multe suspiciuni legate de faptul că Yandex Taxi ar transmite datele utilizatorilor din Republica Moldova în Federația Rusă.

In this episode of The EA Campus Podcast, Nicky sits down with Kimberly Spencer, founder of Crown Yourself and CEO of Communication Queens, for an honest conversation about what founders really need from their Executive Assistants. Kimberly shares her journey from Pilates instructor to screenwriter to entrepreneur, and how hiring her first EA completely changed the way she built and led her business.You'll hear Kimberly talk about learning to delegate, understanding your zone of genius, hiring for values rather than skills, and why radical ownership matters on both sides of the EA.founder partnership. She also shares how podcast guesting became a major part of her business strategy and references her book Make Every Podcast Want You.If you work with a visionary executive or support a founder who moves quickly, this conversation will give you practical insight into their mindset and how you can support them more effectively.

Cross-posted from Good Structures. For impact-minded donors, it's natural to focus on doing the most cost-effective thing. Suppose you're genuinely neutral on what you do, as long as it maximizes the good. If you're donating money, you want to look for the most cost-effective opportunity (on the margin) and donate to it. But many organizations and individuals who care about cost-effectiveness try to influence the giving of others. This includes: Research organizations that try to influence the allocation or use of charitable funds. Donor advisors who work with donors to find promising opportunities. People arguing to community members on venues like the EA Forum. Charity recommenders like GiveWell and Animal Charity Evaluators. These are endeavors where you're specifically trying to influence the giving of others. And when you influence the giving of others, you don't get full credit for their decisions! You should only get credit for how much better the thing you convinced them to do is compared to what they would otherwise do. This is something that many people in EA and related communities take for granted and find obvious in the abstract. But I think the implications of this aren't always fully digested by the [...] ---Outline:(03:34) Impact is largely a function of what the donor would have done otherwise.(04:36) Is improving the use of effective or ineffective charitable dollars easier?(06:14) How do people respond to these lower impact interventions?(08:14) What are the implications of paying a lot more attention to funding counterfactuals?(10:21) Objections to this argument. --- First published: November 12th, 2025 Source: https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/YrMFHJm7mbswJd7Me/the-overall-cost-effectiveness-of-an-intervention-often --- Narrated by TYPE III AUDIO.

This week… "Where have you been feeling confused? Where have you been telling yourself that you're confused? What's that confusion actually about? Underneath that confusion, are you actually clear? Do you actually have a strong feeling, maybe a bodily or an emotional or intuitive feeling that you don't want to accept? ...It's time to look at that confusion."This week-ahead reading for Nov 24-30, 2025 is an excerpt from this week's⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Somatic Space class⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ with Renee Sills.

Are you secretly wondering if you're the bottleneck in your business? If you're hovering around the $250K-$500K mark and feeling overwhelmed, here's some good news: it's not you. You just don't have the infrastructure yet.   One of the most misunderstood - yet most catalytic - hires that creates that infrastructure is an executive assistant. This week, Eleanor is joined by time management expert and host of the It's About Time podcast, Anna Dearmon Kornick. Anna runs a successful business with just one full-time employee (herself!) while managing programs, clients, and her family, just to name a few. How? Through the strategic use of her executive assistant.   Listen in this week as Anna breaks down why your EA is not an administrative nice-to-have but part of the core infrastructure of scale. You'll learn Anna's system for working with her assistant, and the key tools and documentation that allows her business to run smoothly whether she's speaking, coaching, or spending time with family.    Download The Founder's Playbook now to learn exactly how the Executive Assistant role transforms from a time protector at $300k in revenue to a strategic Chief of Staff at $30 million.

In this episode, Molly reveals how to scale from assistant to asset by transforming your Executive Assistant into a true strategic partner through smarter delegation and intentional development. She outlines how structured KPIs, weekly strategy check-ins, and vision-casting exercises evolve your assistant from task support to firm leader—protecting your time, amplifying your impact, and sustaining long-term growth. Key Takeaways: Implement ongoing, intentional training that shifts your EA's focus from task execution to owning measurable outcomes. Hold weekly check-ins that go beyond to-do lists—fostering open dialogue, alignment, and shared accountability toward firm-wide goals. Assess your EA's full potential and strategically delegate higher-level responsibilities that free up executive bandwidth and drive firm growth. Position your EA as a true firm leader through continuous learning, strategic vision exercises, and empowerment-based mentorship. Protect your hiring investment by supporting ongoing education, integration, and leadership opportunities that ensure lasting success and scalability. Quote for the Show: "Anyone can hire help, but you didn't just hire help, you hired someone to take ownership to get your business in your life and their bones in their blood to protect your energy." - Molly McGrath   Links: Join our December Masterclass: https://thelawfirmleader.com/ Website: https://hiringandempowering.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/hiringandempowering Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hiringandempowering LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/hiring&empoweringsolutions/ The Law Firm Admin Bootcamp + Academy™ : https://www.lawfirmadminbootcamp.com/ Get Fix My Boss Book: https://amzn.to/3PCeEhk   Ways to Tune In: Amazon Music - https://www.amazon.com/Hiring-and-Empowering-Solutions/dp/B08JJSLJ7N Apple Podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/hiring-and-empowering-solutions/id1460184599 Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/3oIfsDDnEDDkcumTCygHDH Stitcher - https://www.stitcher.com/show/hiring-and-empowering-solutions YouTube - https://youtu.be/p39WTA279ug 

In this episode of the Latinx Business Podcast, host Randy Gomez delves into the new tax provision from the OBBBA Act, which exempts federal income tax on overtime pay starting in 2025. Randy explains how this temporary provision, lasting until 2028, allows individuals to claim significant deductions on their tax returns, potentially reducing their taxable income. He highlights the importance of understanding the nuances of this act, such as the continued obligation to pay Medicare and Social Security taxes. Randy also offers insights into how this change can benefit those who rely heavily on overtime for their annual income#OvertimeTax #OBBBAAct #FederalIncomeTax #TaxDeductions #TaxConsultation #Medicare #SocialSecurity #TaxReturn #TaxCredits #TaxPlanningRandy's Social MediaInstagram: @randygmz.mbaFacebook: Randy Gomez Mba EALinkedIn: Randy Gòmez, MBA, EA

PlayStation has had an interesting year, where its smaller output in terms of first-party releases has not hurt it at all in terms of console sales. The gaming giant has made several future-facing announcements, one of which includes the existence of PlayStation 6 not that far down the line. Sean and Marc look into PlayStation's year from its games to its other media endeavors and what things look like heading into the looming 2026. An interesting take from Strauss Zelnick that we are headed to a PC future may mean that Xbox is right? But will it be the leader on that end? As two different anecdotal reports state that the recently announced Steam Machine may not be as price-friendly as many were hoping it would be. Could it be compounded by this ongoing memory shortage? Also, Xbox had its Partner Preview event, which included an interesting list of games. Not to mention, its weird announcement of Xbox Crocs that came out today as well. Marc has spent some time with Once Upon a Katamari, Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is down sales-wise, while Battlefield 6 and Arc Raiders are booming in its stead. All of this and more on this edition of Video Games 2 the MAX!

Big news from Open Philanthropy Coefficient Giving today: Today, Open Philanthropy is becoming Coefficient Giving. Our mission remains the same, but our new name marks our next chapter as we double down on our longstanding goal of helping more funders increase their impact. We believe philanthropy can be a far more vital force for progress than it is today; too often, great opportunities to help others go unfunded. As Coefficient Giving, our aim is to make it as easy as possible for donors to find and fund them. (For more on how we chose our new name, what's changing, and what's staying the same in this next chapter, see here.) The linked essay, from Coefficient CEO Alexander Berger, shares more about the change, our approach to giving, and why we're focused on growing our work with funders outside of Good Ventures. I also wanted to highlight some details that might be of particular interest to a Forum audience. If you have other questions, leave a comment and I'll do my best to respond! Any changes to your relationship with EA? Nope. While we do lots of work outside traditional EA cause areas, we still see EA as a community [...] --- First published: November 18th, 2025 Source: https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/vkvtu6xbvfkHPhJkC/open-philanthropy-is-now-coefficient-giving --- Narrated by TYPE III AUDIO.

Last year, Sony launched it's service-based third-person shooter Concord, and it bombed worse than virtually any PlayStation-developed title in history. In fact, it was received so poorly that Sony disappeared it off the market in a matter of two weeks, gave everyone their money back, and snuffed the entire project out of existence while closing the studio that made it. Fast-forward more than a year, though, and Concord has kinda-sorta returned. Tech-savvy enthusiasts have revived the game on private servers, but Sony has already caught wind of it all and are working to nip it in the bud. Do we really need Concord to return? Why does Sony care if it does? And why do smart people work so diligently on things they don't own or have control over? Plus: Black Friday will be exceptionally nice for those looking for PlayStation hardware, accessories, and games, Sony dominates The Game Awards nominations with 19, Bungie prods its playerbase for ideas on how to improve Destiny 2, EA's F1 series is taking a year hiatus, possibly indicating the future of EA Sports, Peacock renews Twisted Metal for a third season, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! Do we keep the physical boxes for our gaming hardware? Would Sony ever revive The Legend of Dragoon? How does one navigate gaming's ragebait culture?

Is this game a prequel, is this a reboot?  Both of those are questions I asked myself as we started this game.  After a Great first game in this series, EA decided to reboot this franchise with a younger version of the main character.  They make her younger in this dystopian world.  Something about this game off... it try's to keep what made one special but adds a open world to this game that's all about running around rooftops.  Come hear what we thought about Mirrors Edge Catalyst.  Starring Mike Albertin, and Dominic.  Dominic's Podcast - https://www.youtube.com/@dissonantwaves7752 A Gamer Looks at 40 - https://agamerlooksat40.com/ Phoebe's Twitch - https://www.twitch.tv/theletsplayprincess Phoebe's Podcast - https://nerdsabroadcast.podbean.com/ Zac's Podcast - https://linktr.ee/absolutelythebest Helena - https://linktr.ee/helhathfury Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/GamesMyMomFound Follow us on Facebook.

On the latest episode of Cinematic Underdogs, we're diving into It's In The Game: Madden NFL. This four-part documentary traces the unlikely collaboration between Trip Hawkins, a brilliant computer programmer, and the larger-than-life coach John Madden: an odd pairing that somehow ignited one of the most influential sports gaming franchises ever made. The series isn't a traditional cradle-to-today history lesson; instead, it moves between two timelines. One chronicles Madden NFL's early breakthroughs, creative battles, and the franchise-defining push for realism. The other drops us inside EA's modern studio as the developers hustle to shape Madden 25, revealing just how massive and intricate that yearly operation has become.What emerges is a doc that starts modestly but grows steadily more engaging, blending nostalgia, industry insight, and a surprisingly heartfelt tribute to Madden himself. It doesn't shy away from the franchise's bumps or the criticism surrounding its current era, yet it still manages to capture why the game has mattered to so many players for so long. Whether you've logged thousands of virtual snaps or only know the series by reputation, this doc (and hopefully our discussion) offers a compelling look at how Madden became more than a game, rising to the status of a cultural fixture.

Señor, Dios mío, de día te pido auxilio, de noche grito en tu presencia.Señor, Dios mío, de día te pido auxilio,de noche grito en tu presencia;+ llegue hasta ti mi súplica,inclina tu oído a mi clamor.Porque mi alma está colmada de desdichas,y mi vida está al borde del abismo;ya me cuentan con los que bajan a la fosa,soy como un inválido.Tengo mi cama entre los muertos,como los caídos que yacen en el sepulcro,de los cuales ya no guardas memoria,porque fueron arrancados de tu mano.Me has colocado en lo hondo de la fosa,en las tinieblas del fondo;tu cólera pesa sobre mí,me echas encima todas tus olas.Has alejado de mí a mis conocidos,me has hecho repugnante para ellos:encerrado, no puedo salir,y los ojos se me nublan de pesar.Todo el día te estoy invocando,tendiendo las manos hacia ti.¿Harás tú maravillas por los muertos?¿Se alzarán las sombras para darte gracias?¿Se anuncia en el sepulcro tu misericordia,o tu fidelidad en el reino de la muerte?¿Se conocen tus maravillas en la tiniebla,o tu justicia en el país del olvido?Pero yo te pido auxilio,por la mañana irá a tu encuentro mi súplica.¿Por qué, Señor, me rechazasy me escondes tu rostro?Desde niño fui desgraciado y enfermo,me doblo bajo el peso de tus terrores,pasó sobre mí tu incendio,tus espantos me han consumido:me rodean como las aguas todo el día,me envuelven todos a una;alejaste de mí amigos y compañeros:mi compañía son las tinieblas.LECTURA BREVETú estás en medio de nosotros, Señor, tu nombre ha sido invocado sobre nosotros: no nos abandones, Señor Dios nuestro.RESPONSORIO BREVEV.

When it comes to money, most of us were taught to work hard, focus on saving, and not take any financial risks. In this episode of Ambition 2.0, Rachel Rodgers (self-made millionaire, founder of Hello Seven, and author of We Should All Be Millionaires and Future Millionaire) is here to replace that belief with something way more powerful. Rachel and Amanda get into why wealth is built on risk, not by simply “working harder”, how women are socialized to budget instead of build wealth, and the exact mindset and practical moves that helped Rachel go from living in a low-income household as a child to running an eight-figure business.

This week… "Your bodily knowing and intuition are loud right now. Listen to them. Take the risk to listen to them and to do the thing, or say the thing, or embody the thing that you feel you're being asked for. The honesty and the giving voice - Uranus in Taurus - is what begins the manifestation."This week-ahead reading for Nov 17-23, 2025 is an excerpt from this week's⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Somatic Space class⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ with Renee Sills.

Xbox's big bet for bringing PCs to the living room has officially been undercut. This week, Valve announced three (!) different pieces of hardware. First, there is the Steam Machine, which serves as the strongest competitor to consoles. While still very much a PC, the Steam Machine packs a lot of punch for a small device and could be a force if priced well. Second, a brand new VR headset in the Steam Frame. Despite Meta having massive first-party support, Valve has decided to challenge a space that many of us thought was finished growing. Third, and finally, is a Steam Controller. It's horrendous looking and makes the Duke look ergonomic. How does Valve's aggressive hardware plans disrupt Xbox and does any lingering appeal for the PC in the living room by Xbox remain? The Dukes unite and dive straight in.
