The end of the nineteenth century saw massive developments and innovations in photography at a time when the forces of Western modernity—industrialization, racialization, and capitalism—were quickly reshaping the world. The Unintended: Photography, Property, and the Aesthetics of Racial Capitalism (NYU Press, 2023) slows down the moment in which the technology of photography seemed to speed itself—and so the history of racial capitalism—up. It follows the substantial shifts in the markets, mediums, and forms of photography during a legally murky period at the end of the nineteenth century. Monica Huerta traces the subtle and paradoxical ways legal thinking through photographic lenses reinscribed a particular aesthetics of whiteness in the very conceptions of property ownership. The book pulls together an archive that encompasses the histories of performance and portraiture alongside the legal, pursuing the logics by which property rights involving photographs are affirmed (or denied) in precedent-setting court cases and legal texts. Emphasizing the making of “expression” into property to focus our attention on the failures of control that cameras do not invent, but rather put new emphasis on, this book argues that designations of control's absence are central to the practice and idea of property-making. The Unintended proposes that tracking and analyzing the sensed horizons of intention, control, autonomy, will, and volition offers another way into understanding how white supremacy functions. Ultimately, its unique historical reading practice offers a historically-specific vantage on the everyday workings of racial capitalism and the inheritances of white supremacy that structure so much of our lives.

In an era dominated by technological advancements and automated processes, it's easy for businesses to fall into the trap of relying solely on technology and templates to attract customers and secure appointments. However, the human factor remains an indispensable element in the business world. Building genuine connections, understanding individual needs, and fostering relationships are aspects that cannot be replaced by algorithms or templates. In this article, we will explore the significance of the human touch in business and why a personal approach is essential for sustained success. Understanding Individual Needs: One of the key aspects where technology often falls short is in understanding the nuanced and unique needs of individuals. While algorithms can analyze data and provide generalized solutions, they may struggle to grasp the intricacies of human preferences, emotions, and motivations. This is where human interaction becomes invaluable. Taking the time to engage with customers on a personal level allows businesses to tailor their offerings to specific needs. A customized approach not only enhances customer satisfaction but also establishes a sense of trust and loyalty. By listening actively and responding empathetically, businesses can demonstrate their commitment to meeting the unique requirements of each customer. Building Genuine Relationships: Relationships form the backbone of any successful business. While technology can facilitate communication, it is the human touch that fosters genuine connections. Face-to-face interactions, personalized communication, and a sincere interest in the well-being of customers contribute to building lasting relationships. Clients are more likely to stay loyal to a business that values them as individuals rather than treating them as mere data points. A friendly conversation, a handwritten note, or a personalized follow-up call can leave a lasting impression, creating a positive association with the brand. Trust and Credibility: Trust is a currency that holds immense value in the business world. While technology can enhance efficiency, it is the human factor that instills trust and credibility. Customers are more likely to trust a business when they can associate a human face with it. Personalized interactions provide an opportunity for businesses to showcase their values, integrity, and commitment to customer satisfaction. Trust is not built through automated emails or generic templates; it is nurtured through transparent communication, reliability, and a genuine concern for the customer's well-being. Adaptability and Problem-Solving: The business landscape is dynamic, and challenges are inevitable. While technology can streamline processes, the ability to adapt and solve complex problems often requires a human touch. Human intuition, creativity, and the capacity to think outside the box are qualities that set businesses apart in a competitive environment. When faced with unique challenges, businesses that prioritize the human factor can approach problem-solving with flexibility and ingenuity. Employees who are empowered to make decisions based on their understanding of individual situations can provide solutions that go beyond the limitations of automated sytems. While technology undoubtedly plays a crucial role in modern business operations, it is essential not to underestimate the importance of the human factor. Genuine connections, personalized interactions, and a commitment to understanding individual needs contribute to building trust, credibility, and lasting relationships. In a world where automation is on the rise, businesses that prioritize the human touch will not only gain customers but also create a lasting impact in the hearts and minds of their clientele. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wayne-weathersby/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wayne-weathersby/support

In the realm of women's health, the significance of environmental factors affecting fertility and overall well-being has come to the forefront. Susana Puelles, a seasoned healthcare provider with over 25 years of experience, explores holistic approaches to address women's challenges, particularly regarding glyphosate exposure, aging, and infertility. Glyphosate, a key component in many herbicides, has infiltrated our environment, permeating our food and water sources. Susana Puelles emphasizes the multigenerational impact of this pervasive chemical, known for its herbicidal properties, potentially disrupting hormonal balance and leading to issues such as fibroids, cysts, endometriosis, and fertility challenges. The Western Approach and Birth Control Susana critiques the conventional Western medical model's response to women's health issues, involving prescribing birth control and hormone replacement therapies. This approach often provides temporary relief but fails to address the root causes, underscoring the need for a paradigm shift in women's healthcare. She elucidates the misconception around regular periods induced by birth control, emphasizing that what many perceive as a menstrual cycle is, in fact, breakthrough bleeding caused by hormonal withdrawal. Susana explains the broader impact of birth control, depicting it not only as a synthetic hormone but also as a steroid with potential long-term consequences. The Crucial Role of Functional Medicine and Holistic Approaches Functional medicine emerges as a beacon of hope in Susana's narrative. She underscores the significance of testing for glyphosate levels, metals, and other toxins, shedding light on the unseen disruptions in the body's detox pathways. Unlike its Western counterpart, functional medicine aims to uncover the factors clogging the system, paving the way for a more comprehensive healing approach. Exposures and Detoxification Susana simplifies the complex landscape of chemical exposures, focusing on three primary culprits: fluoride, aluminum, and glyphosate. She encourages individuals to regain control over their environments by eliminating these toxins from everyday products. Emphasizing the impact of these exposures on the gut, she stresses the need to prioritize gut health as a precursor to effective detoxification. Healing the Gut and Yoni Sync Healing the gut takes precedence in Susana's approach, which she likens to the epicenter of hormone production and overall well-being. By identifying and rectifying exposure issues, healing the gut becomes a foundational step in the journey toward hormonal balance and fertility. Yoni Sync, Susana's holistic herb company, embodies her commitment to merging traditional herbal wisdom with modern health needs. Developed through years of experience, Yoni Sync offers solutions for hormone imbalances, fibroids, and overall women's health. Susana stresses the importance of time in the healing process. While some individuals witness transformative changes in as little as three to four months, the average timeline hovers around six months to a year. She urges individuals to grant themselves the grace of time, challenging societal impatience that often accompanies fertility struggles. Beyond Quick Fixes and High-Risk Pregnancies Susana provides a nuanced perspective on In Vitro Fertilization (IVF), acknowledging its role as a valid option for many couples. However, she cautions against perceiving it as a quick fix, emphasizing the need for a holistic approach that extends beyond the immediacy of fertility treatments. The integration of natural methods, such as acupuncture and herbal support, can enhance the effectiveness of IVF while addressing underlying issues. As IVF becomes more prevalent, so do high-risk pregnancies. Susana sheds light on potential complications arising from assisted reproductive technologies, including pre-eclampsia, gestational diabetes, and cholestasis. Integrative support from healthcare professionals, including acupuncturists and herbalists, can play a crucial role in mitigating these risks. The Continuation of Care in the Postpartum Phase The journey doesn't conclude with childbirth. Susana emphasizes the importance of postpartum care, especially for women who have undergone high-risk pregnancies or fertility treatments. A holistic team, including acupuncturists, can provide ongoing support, addressing hormonal imbalances and aiding in the recovery process. In this podcast, you'll discover:  Glyphosate's hidden impact on women's health and fertility. A critical look at conventional Western healthcare approaches. The rise of holistic functional medicine. Tips for identifying and detoxifying environmental toxins. The importance of holistic care for hormonal balance and fertility. EPISODE RESOURCES: Yonisync.com Instagram

The spiritual gift of prophecy is not to be confused with the call or office of a prophet. Just because someone has the gift of prophecy does not mean they are called to become God's mouthpiece. They are not the same thing. In this episode of the Vertical Relationship Show, Melia explains that the gift of prophecy is a gift from the Holy Spirit that all believers can tap into, while the calling of a prophet is an official position recognized by God.

In the latest episode on the "She's Making an Impact" podcast, we explore the significant impact that words have on personal breakthroughs and success. This is a deep dive into how the power of words, both spoken and internalized, can shape our journey in life and business. Inspired by Bill Johnson's book "When Heaven Invades Earth," we're looking at the concept that words are more than just sounds or letters; they hold the power to shape destinies and influence outcomes in life.    We're examining 4 topics in this episode: Complaining: Highlighting insights from Bill Johnson, the segment discusses how complaining can lead to unbelief and demonstrates a lack of trust in divine goodness. It emphasizes the importance of seeing complaints as opportunities for deepening faith and enhancing trust in the divine plan. Judging: This part of the episode stresses the spiritual practice of responding to pain caused by others with blessings and prayers, rather than judgment. It includes personal anecdotes and relevant scripture (Luke 6:37) to underscore the importance of compassion over judgment. Cursing: Addressing the impact of negative words, whether self-directed or from others, the discussion encourages breaking free from these harmful narratives. Emphasizing the transformative power of positive and affirming language, the focus is on overcoming the curses and negative labels that one might carry. The Power of God's Word: Citing Proverbs 18:21, this section underlines the life-altering power of divine words. It advocates for regularly speaking these words over one's life, especially during periods of uncertainty and while waiting for divine promises to materialize.   0:00 - The book that inspired this episode 2:47 - How complaining leads to unbelief 5:00 - Transforming judgment into compassion 6:33 - Breaking free from curse words spoken over yourself or that others have spoken over you 7:54 - Understanding and harnessing the power of God's Word 11:33 - Practical tips for positive speech and implementing change in your daily life     Ready for more?

This week, we cover the highlights of the recent Knowledge Management and Innovation for Legal Conference with our guests, Patrick DiDomenico, founder of Inspire KM Consulting and the organizer of the conference; Tanisha Little, Director of Knowledge Management at Simpson Thatcher; and Sara Miro, Director of Knowledge at Sullivan Cromwell. In a time of Generative AI Hype, the basic ideas behind Knowledge Management have never been more relevant. As much as we believe in the future of a technology that can build upon our current knowledge, how we structure and manage that knowledge will determine just how far we can go. Knowledge management has never been more important than it is today. The episode begins with an exploration of the organizational complexities behind the inaugural conference. Patrick DiDomenico shares his experiences in orchestrating the event, noting the extensive, months-long commitment it entailed, yet expressing satisfaction with the innovative elements introduced, such as breakout sessions. We then shift focus to the specific sessions led by our guests. Tanisha Little and Jennifer Mendez conducted a "KM 101" session, effectively orienting newcomers to the field. Additionally, an engaging KM Attorney Roundtable, facilitated by Sara Miro and Patrick Dundas, explored issues such as change management and the implications of generative AI. Our discussion also covers the most impactful sessions from the conference. Key highlights include Andrea Alliston's keynote on leadership amidst disruption, Jeff Rovner's presentation on succession planning, and Mark Smolik's perspective on aligning law firms with client needs. The consensus underscores the conference's comprehensive value for professionals across all levels of KM expertise. A significant aspect of the conference was the notable influx of newcomers to the KM field. Emphasizing the importance of foundational knowledge, Patrick DiDomenico notes that such conferences often attract a substantial proportion of first-time attendees. The provision of introductory content is pivotal for equipping these professionals for more advanced discussions in future gatherings. For our Crystal Ball Question, there is a unanimous agreement on the transformative potential of generative AI, foreseeing an increase in KM specialization, refined use cases, and enhanced emphasis on data curation. Nevertheless, mastering foundational KM practices, such as change management, is deemed essential for fully capitalizing on these technological advancements. The episode concludes with an optimistic outlook on the continuous growth and evolution in the field of KM. ⁠⁠⁠⁠Contact Us:  Twitter: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@gebauerm⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@glambert⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Threads: @glambertpod or @gebauerm66Email: geekinreviewpodcast@gmail.comMusic: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Jerry David DeCicca⁠⁠⁠⁠

Emphasizing that discipleship is a continuous, 24/7 calling for every Christian, Jim stresses that it transcends specific locations or occupations. He underscores the importance of making disciples of Jesus, rather than of a church, brand, or subculture, defining discipleship as the ongoing pursuit of following and teaching others to follow Jesus, focusing on love for God and others. The talk concludes with a challenge to reflect on the transformative impact of being a disciple-maker on one's life and Christian experience.  He encourages believers to share the message of Jesus, emphasizing that the Church belongs to Him, and its foundation is unshakable. Concluding with a call to ongoing discipleship and the spreading of Jesus' message, Jim prompts the congregation to consider their willingness to be disciples and participate in the mission.

In this episode of the First Day Podcast, host Bill Stanczykiewicz, Ed.D. is joined by Dr. Dwight Burlingame, Professor Emeritus of Philanthropic Studies and Glenn Family Chair in Philanthropy at Indiana University Lilly Family School of Philanthropy. Dr. Burlingame, recognized as a pioneer in this field, co-authored Chapter 39 of "Achieving Excellence in Fundraising," which covers the nuances and strategies of business sector fundraising. This episode provided a comprehensive overview, illuminating the historical context, theoretical frameworks, and practical applications of corporate giving to nonprofit organizations. Historically, corporate giving has evolved significantly, influenced by various models that Dr. Burlingame and his peers have identified through extensive research since 1996. Four primary models were highlighted: corporate responsibility, ethical and altruistic, political, and stakeholder. The corporate responsibility model underscores a company's societal obligations, linking its community contributions to its core mission of profitability. The ethical and altruistic model debates the true nature of altruism in corporate giving, focusing on community well-being. The political model explores corporate giving as a means to gain political advantage, either internally within the company or externally. Lastly, the stakeholder model, which has gained popularity over the last three decades, emphasizes the importance of considering all stakeholders of a company, including customers, vendors, and employees, and how these relationships intertwine with the company's overall business strategy. The discussion also ventured into the practical realm, addressing how nonprofits can effectively approach and engage with the business sector for fundraising. Emphasizing the alignment of nonprofit missions with corporate philanthropic values, the podcast underlined the importance of developing a strategic fundraising plan that caters specifically to the business sector. This involves understanding the historical and current philanthropic activities of companies and identifying common points of contact, such as shared vendors or board members. The episode concluded with the notion that understanding and aligning with the various philanthropic motivations of businesses can greatly enhance the effectiveness of fundraising efforts in the nonprofit sector.

On a recent Thursday, former U.S. President Donald Trump shared a poignant campaign video through his various social media channels. Emphasizing the significant importance that the impending election holds for the foundational ideals of the nation, he said, 'The forthcoming election is of enormous consequence. The options unfolding next November bear immense weight: difficult circumstances, impoverishment, and vulnerability under the incumbent President, or tranquility, wealth, and resilience under the previous administration.' Mr. Trump, the nation's 45th President, pointed out, 'A scant three years prior, our nation's financial prospects flourished, the world was relatively stable, and the state of our nation was robust. It is notable that yearly income levels rose by roughly $6,000 during my presidency, while they experienced a similar decline under the current administration, which I believe is amongst the least effective in the country's history.' He went on to illustrate financial markers signifying a robust financial health during his time in office, saying 'Under my watch, a historic low was achieved as the 30-year mortgage rate touched 2.65%.
