Kinsella on Liberty Podcast: Episode 479. Libertarian Nicholas Sinard asked me to field some questions about the referenced issues, so we did so. (Recorded Dec. 10, 2025.) https://youtu.be/DlbDlmuUPW0 Regarding our discussion of my previous comments about the definition of rights, and what rights are justified. As a definitional matter, a legal right is a legally enforceable claim to the exclusive use of a resource. As to what rights libertarians think are justified, I have discussed the idea that the only rights that are legitimate or just are those that the assertion of which cannot be coherently criticized. The reason is rooted in the logic of argumentation ethics and my estoppel defense of rights, e.g. society may justly punish those who have initiated force, in a manner proportionate to their initiation of force and to the consequences thereof, because they cannot coherently object to such punishment") Stephan Kinsella, "A Libertarian Theory of Punishment and Rights," in Legal Foundations of a Free Society (Houston, Texas: Papinian Press, 2023). See also chapters 6. Dialogical Arguments for Libertarian Rights, 7. Defending Argumentation Ethics: Reply to Murphy & Callahan, and 22. The Undeniable Morality of Capitalism, et pass.; and other writing such as KOL451 | Debating the Nature of Rights on The Rational Egoist (Michael Liebowitz) (from the transcript): [12:25–19:47] I think when people say that I have a right to X what they're really saying is if "I were to use force to defend my claim to this space" I can't be coherently criticized. In other words, my proposed use of force to defend this space, is just, is justified. Which is why it ties into what laws are justified. Because a law is just a social recognition, by your society—your local neighbors, the legal system—that they recognize your claim, and they're willing to endorse or support your use of force to defend yourself. So ultimately when we say there's a right, what we're saying is that if the legal system uses force to defend your claimed right, that use of force itself is justified. So this is a complicated way of saying what libertarians often say,  something like: it's either ballots or bullets. It always comes down to physical force in the end. So when you have a law, what you're saying is that the legal principle that we're that proposing—like defending my house, or my body from rape or murder—we're saying that if you were to use force to defend yourself, or if the legal system would do so in your name, then that would not be unjustified. And I think that's ultimately the claim. So what you're saying is ... the reason I call it a metanorm (( Rights as Metanorms; Rights and Morals as Intersecting Sets Not as Subset of Morals. )) is because ... Well, I distinguish between morality, and the justice of the legal system. So for example—and I think maybe Rand might agree with me on this, I'm not sure (( See, e.g, these tweets by Objectivist Michael Liebowitz, admitting that in some cases it might not only be moral to violate a right but immoral not to: 1, 2 ("Suppose a guy is driving with his son, and someone shoots up his car, badly wounding the son and taking out the tires. There is no one around, and he needs to get his son to a hospital. He sees an unattended parked car and steals it, getting his son the help he needs. That would be both virtuous and a crime."), 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 ("The person who wouldn't steal a dollar to prevent his children from being tortured is the person who should face harsh moral judgment."), 8.  ))—but a simplistic view of morality, which most libertarians might have—and I don't mean to be critical by saying simplistic, because it's an attempt to distinguish between...  so most people would say that "you shouldn't do drugs" and therefore they're not opposed to a law outlawing drugs, because to their simplistic linear mind, if it's immoral, it should be made illegal. But if you have a kind of a more nuanced view of things, you understand that, well just because something is immoral, doesn't mean it should be illegal. That's the libertarian view—its like, okay, doing drugs, being a  drug addict might be immoral, it might be harmful to your life, but you're not violating someone's rights. So the government [the state] is not justified in outlawing it. So that's like a second level. So when you explain that to your normy person, then you might say, well that's because morality, or that's because rights violations are a subset of morality. So that's kind of a first approximation about how you explain to people why everything that's not that's immoral should not be illegal. It's because a rights violation should be illegal, but that's only a subset of immorality. But when you put it that way, the assumption is that every rights violation is immoral although not everything that's immoral is a rights violation right. And my personal view that I've I've come to adopt over the years is that's that's actually slightly incorrect. In other words it it's incorrect to say that everything that's a rights violation is necessarily immoral. And the reason is because I view rights as a metanorm. This is the view as a human being, living in society, who wants to have a moral view of matters and the way human Society should operate, what law would I favor as a justified law? So I would say that we should have a law that says you can't steal from people. But what that means is that it's justified if the legal system uses force to stop crime, or to stop theft. It's justified. Which which means that if someone is caught being a thief or a rapist or a murderer and they're punished or dealt with in a certain way, that response by the legal system, or by the victim using the legal system as its proxy—you can't criticize that itself an immoral action; it's justified. So to my mind the ultimate purpose of law, and to think about this, is to think about what's justified. But it doesn't mean it doesn't mean that every rights violation is necessarily immoral. And again, it's because when you classify the legal system's response to a crime as justified, what you're saying is, it doesn't violate the aggressor's rights if force is used against him. But it doesn't necessarily imply that what he did was immoral. So this is why my view is that we have to view rights violations not as a proper subset of immorality, but as its own set which is mostly overlapping with immorality. So I would say that 99% of all rights violations are actually immoral, just like I would say that it's immoral to be a dishonest person in general but I don't think that it's logically necessarily true. And the reason is because the purpose of morality is to guide man's conduct in his everyday affairs, but the purpose of political ethics is to tell us which legal system is justified. So that morm is aimed at determining which laws are just; it's not aimed at telling us how we should act on a day-to-day basis. So given a legal system,  which I think is a just legal system—let's say we have a legal system where which outlaws murder and theft and extortion and rape and robbery and all this kind of stuff—that doesn't necessarily mean that I am always immoral if I choose to violate someone's rights in that system. It probably is in most cases,  but I'm not sure it's logically the same thing. [Then the example of someone in the woods breaking into a cabin to save their baby's life.] Shownotes (Grok) Show Notes: Stephan Kinsella & Nicholas Sinard on Co-Ownership, Property Rights, and Related Issues (Full conversation – Parts 1 & 2 combined) Opening Summary and Defense of Co-Ownership (0:00–4:41) Kinsella summarizes his long-standing view: co-ownership of scarce resources is unproblematic and historically unquestioned. Property rights exist to avoid interpersonal conflict over rivalrous (scarce) resources; contracts can split the “bundle of rights” in ways that still prevent conflict. Examples: state-owned property is actually co-owned by taxpayers/victims; homesteading-by-proxy creates temporary co-ownership; wills can be structured to achieve the same result even if death technically ends the testator's existence. Hoppe, Easements, and Collective Homesteading (4:41–8:22) Sinard: critics are taking Hoppe too literally when he says “only one owner per resource.” Hoppe himself recognizes easements, servitudes, and even collective homesteading (e.g., a commonly used village path). Practical co-ownership (spouses, roommates, joint heirs) already works via contracts and arbitration/divorce/sale when conflict arises. Meta-Norms and the Duty to Avoid Conflict (8:22–9:53) Even when no perfect rule exists, parties still have a background duty to seek peaceful dispute resolution rather than immediate violence. Property rights are not self-enforcing; they presuppose arbitration. Compossibility and the Essentialist Project (9:53–13:18) Sinard is working on an “essentialist” test: a proposed property-rights rule is only justifiable if it is logically compossible (no built-in conflicts). Kinsella links this to Hoppe's and Hülsmann's emphasis on compossible rights. Do Critics Really Oppose the Substance or Just the Word? (11:43–17:50) Kinsella suspects the dispute is merely semantic: critics accept contractual arrangements that achieve the same result as co-ownership but refuse the label. Sinard thinks critics mistakenly believe Kinsella derives property rights from contract (rather than contract from prior property rights). Tangent on contractarianism, mutual recognition, and argumentation ethics: mutual respect for rights is a proto-agreement, but contracts remain downstream of property. Consent, Revocability, and the Guest/Tenant Distinction (31:42–36:04) Bare consent (dinner guest, kissing) is revocable at will.

Last week, the government announced that they would not be making changes to the way we calculate our emissions targets according to the advice of the Climate Change Commission. One change that was rejected was the inclusion of international shipping and aviation emissions; the flying and shipping that is so key to New Zealand's economy, through tourism and elsewhere, is excluded from our emissions targets, despite being a significant chunk of our emissions. This means, however, that in the face of our Paris Agreement commitments, the Government has opted to keep working with an incomplete picture of our economies emissions. Monday Wire Producer Alex spoke to Professor of Philosophy at the University of Otago, Lisa Ellis, about these emissions, and what this rejection means for how we present ourselves and neighbours and a member of the international community.

After 27 years, Melvyn Bragg has decided to step down from the In Our Time presenter's chair. With over a thousand episodes to choose from, he has selected just six that capture the huge range and depth of the subjects he and his experts have tackled. In this fifth of his choices, we hear Melvyn Bragg and his guests discuss a key figure from quantum mechanics. Their topic is the life and ideas of Wolfgang Pauli (1900-1958), whose Exclusion Principle is one of the key ideas in quantum mechanics. A brilliant physicist, at 21 Pauli wrote a review of Einstein's theory of general relativity and that review is still a standard work of reference today. The Pauli Exclusion Principle proposes that no two electrons in an atom can be at the same time in the same state or configuration, and it helps explain a wide range of phenomena such as the electron shell structure of atoms. Pauli went on to postulate the existence of the neutrino, which was confirmed in his lifetime. Following further development of his exclusion principle, Pauli was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1945 for his 'decisive contribution through his discovery of a new law of Nature'. He also had a long correspondence with Jung, and a reputation for accidentally breaking experimental equipment which was dubbed The Pauli Effect. With Frank Close Fellow Emeritus at Exeter College, University of Oxford Michela Massimi Professor of Philosophy of Science at the University of Edinburgh and Graham Farmelo Bye-Fellow of Churchill College, University of Cambridge Producer: Simon Tillotson Spanning history, religion, culture, science and philosophy, In Our Time from BBC Radio 4 is essential listening for the intellectually curious.

Seven-Lecture Series on Property Law Series Roadmaphttps://drive.google.com/file/d/1ceyxXw7KilPSTUMFf_Y8r6ktEzM_gm1Q/view?usp=sharingThis conversation delves into the complexities of property law, specifically focusing on the landlord-tenant relationship and leasehold estates. It covers essential topics such as the types of leasehold estates, landlord duties, tenant rights, the Fair Housing Act, and landlord tort liability. The discussion emphasizes the importance of understanding these concepts for legal exams and real-world applications, highlighting the evolving nature of housing law and the need for fairness and security in tenant protections.Key Points SummaryI. Leasehold Estates & Property StatusFour Leasehold Types: Landlord/Tenant Law recognizes:Term of Years: Fixed period, ends automatically.Periodic Tenancy: Successive terms, renews until notice (e.g., 30-60 days).Tenancy at Will: Both parties desire, no specific term, modern law often requires notice.Tenancy at Sufferance (Holdover): Tenant remains wrongfully; landlord can evict or bind to new lease.Lease vs. License: A lease grants possessory interest; a license is revocable permission to use, not possess.Property Characterization: A lease is both a property conveyance and a contract. Tenant has present possession; landlord retains future possession.II. Landlord Duties & Tenant RemediesDuty to Deliver Possession: Landlords must deliver actual physical possession (modern English Rule, especially for residential leases).Implied Covenant of Quiet Enjoyment (ICQE): Protects tenant from landlord's substantial interference; breach leads to actual or constructive eviction.Implied Warranty of Habitability (IWH): (Residential only) Landlord must maintain habitable property, free of health/safety threats. Non-waivable.IWH Remedies: Tenant can refuse/abate rent or "repair and deduct" without vacating.III. Constructive & Self-Help EvictionConstructive Eviction (CE): Landlord's breach substantially interferes, forcing tenant to leave. Requires:Substantial Interference (landlord's fault).Notice and Cure (landlord fails to fix).Goodbye (tenant vacates reasonably quickly).Prohibition of Self-Help: Modern law almost universally bans landlord self-help eviction, requiring judicial proceedings for public peace.Exclusion of Non-Tenants: Self-help is often allowed against non-tenants (e.g., licensees), denying them due process.Advocacy for Uniform Protection: Argument exists to extend self-help prohibition to all residential occupants for housing security and dignity.IV. Transfer & Mitigation of DamagesDuty to Mitigate: Modern trend (contract law) requires landlords to make reasonable efforts to relet premises if a tenant breaches, reducing tenant's liability.Assignment vs. Sublease:Assignment: Transfers entire lease term. Assignee is directly liable to landlord; original tenant remains secondarily liable.Sublease: Transfers part of the term. Sublessee has no direct relationship with landlord; original tenant remains fully liable.Understanding the distinction between leasehold estates and licenses is crucial.There are four main types of leasehold estates: term of years, periodic tenancy, tenancy at will, and tenancy at sufferance.Landlords have specific duties, including delivering possession and ensuring habitability.Constructive eviction allows tenants to leave without penalty if their enjoyment of the property is substantially interfered with.The implied warranty of habitability ensures that residential properties meet basic living standards.Landlords must mitigate damages when a tenant abandons the property.The Fair Housing Act prohibits discrimination based on protected classes.Landlords can be liable for injuries on the property under certain conditions.Negligence per se can establish landlord liability if safety statutes are violated.The legal status of tenants versus licensees significantly impacts eviction protections.

In June 2022, Prince Andrew was conspicuously absent from the public procession of the Order of the Garter Day ceremony at St George's Chapel, Windsor Castle, despite being a member of the order. It was revealed that this omission was due to a so-called “family decision” — reportedly influenced by Prince Charles and Prince William — aimed at avoiding potential public backlash given Andrew's reputation at the time. His name still appeared in one version of the printed Order of Service but was omitted from the version distributed to the public.This exclusion drew criticism as a clear sign of his fall from favour within the royal family and the institution. While he did attend the private lunch and investiture portions of the ceremony, his absence from the public procession suggested a deliberate effort to sideline him in high-profile royal events, symbolising both the damage to his standing and the monarchy's need to preserve its public image amidst territorial scandal.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Throughout the centuries and into the present day, the Gospel of John has indelibly shaped Christian theology and thinkers in significant ways, but major new questions are being raised about the genesis of that gospel, its relationship to other Christian writings and influences, and especially the masked identity of its author. In The Gospel of John: A New History (Oxford University Press, 2025), Hugo Méndez presents a provocative new thesis that the Fourth Gospel was produced under false authorial pretenses, in a period after the distribution of the preceding Synoptic Gospels, to propound not just a high Logos-Christology amenable to trends in prevailing Jewish and Greco-Roman philosophy from the first century CE, but also its author's stark new vision of salvation in which believers could participate in Christ's exaltation and deification in the present. To plot out his new history and as a reintroduction to the New Testament's Johannine literature, Dr. Méndez joined the New Books Network recently to discuss John's relationship to the historical Jesus and other early Christian writings, the “invented” identity of the Fourth Gospel's “beloved disciple,” the gospel's later attribution to John of Zebedee in the church fathers, and the “afterlives” of the “beloved disciple” as a letter and treatise writer in canonical and extracanonical Christian texts.

Throughout the centuries and into the present day, the Gospel of John has indelibly shaped Christian theology and thinkers in significant ways, but major new questions are being raised about the genesis of that gospel, its relationship to other Christian writings and influences, and especially the masked identity of its author. In The Gospel of John: A New History (Oxford University Press, 2025), Hugo Méndez presents a provocative new thesis that the Fourth Gospel was produced under false authorial pretenses, in a period after the distribution of the preceding Synoptic Gospels, to propound not just a high Logos-Christology amenable to trends in prevailing Jewish and Greco-Roman philosophy from the first century CE, but also its author's stark new vision of salvation in which believers could participate in Christ's exaltation and deification in the present. To plot out his new history and as a reintroduction to the New Testament's Johannine literature, Dr. Méndez joined the New Books Network recently to discuss John's relationship to the historical Jesus and other early Christian writings, the “invented” identity of the Fourth Gospel's “beloved disciple,” the gospel's later attribution to John of Zebedee in the church fathers, and the “afterlives” of the “beloved disciple” as a letter and treatise writer in canonical and extracanonical Christian texts.

Racism does not always follow the patterns of aggressive behaviour, or outright attempts to violate the human rights and equality of racialized people. A study of the experiences of first- and second-generation Haitian and Jamaican Canadians sheds light on a form of racial exclusion sociologist Dr. Karine Coen-Sanchez calls polite racism. She joins us on our podcast today.

Join us and be inspired in this replay episode from Women Acquiring Assets featuring Buffanny Hunter, whose mission is grounded in the belief that community organizations must be responsive to the evolving and real needs of those they serve. Rejecting generic or one-size-fits-all solutions, she champions a model of leadership built upon deep listening and partnership with local communities. Buffanny's work at the Junior League of Los Angeles has centered on supporting foster youth and transition-age foster youth, recognizing the array of intersectional challenges they encounter and ensuring aid is relevant, direct, and impactful. Her leadership style is demonstrated through collaborations with organizations such as Happy Trails, Friends of LA, United Friends of the Children, and Alliance for Children's Rights. Through these partnerships, Buffanny advances programs focused on college readiness, financial literacy, and mental health, while also ensuring emergency needs—like assistance for rent or food—are met. Her approach proves that impactful leadership stems from meeting people where they are, listening first, and adapting services to the unique circumstances of those in need. To honor Buffanny Hunter's mission, take action in your own community by embracing inclusive leadership, active listening, and adaptive support for those in need. Seek out opportunities to partner with local organizations, advocate for vulnerable and underserved populations, and ensure your efforts are grounded in genuine understanding and collaboration. By following Buffanny's example, you can play a direct role in building resilient, equitable communities and making meaningful, lasting change for those who need it most.

Theologian Miroslav Volf reflects on solitude, loneliness, and how being alone can reveal our humanity, selfhood, and relationship with God.This episode is part 1 of a 5-part series, SOLO, which explores the theological, moral, and psychological dimensions of loneliness, solitude, and being alone.“Solitude brings one back in touch with who one is—it's how we stabilize ourselves so we know how to be ourselves with others.”Macie Bridge welcomes Miroslav for a conversation on solitude and being oneself—probing the difference between loneliness and aloneness, and the essential role of solitude in a flourishing Christian life. Reflecting on Genesis, the Incarnation, and the sensory life of faith, Volf considers how we can both embrace solitude and attend to the loneliness of others.He shares personal reflections on his mother's daily prayer practice and how solitude grounded her in divine presence. Volf describes how solitude restores the self before God and others: “Nobody can be me instead of me.” It is possible, he suggests, that we can we rediscover the presence of God in every relationship—solitary or shared.Helpful Links and ResourcesThe Cost of Ambition: How Striving to Be Better Than Others Makes Us WorseFyodor Dostoevsky, Crime and PunishmentRainer Maria Rilke, Book of Hours (Buch der Stunden)Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Creation and FallEpisode Highlights“Nobody can be me instead of me. And since I must be me, to be me well, I need times with myself.”“It's not good, in almost a metaphysical sense, for us to be alone. We aren't ourselves when we are simply alone.”“Solitude brings one back in touch with who one is—it's how we stabilize ourselves so we know how to be ourselves with others.”“Our relationship to God is mediated by our relationships to others. To honor another is to honor God.”“When we attend to the loneliness of others, in some ways we tend to our own loneliness.”Solitude, Loneliness, and FlourishingThe difference between solitude (constructive aloneness) and loneliness (diminishment of self).COVID-19 as an amplifier of solitude and loneliness.Volf's experience of being alone at Yale—productive solitude without loneliness.Loneliness as “the absence of an affirming glance.”Aloneness as essential for self-reflection and renewal before others.Humanity, Creation, and RelationshipAdam's solitude in Genesis as an incomplete creation—“It is not good for man to be alone.”Human beings as fundamentally social and political.A newborn cannot flourish without touch and gaze—relational presence is constitutive of personhood.Solitude and communion exist in dynamic tension; both must be rightly measured.Jesus's Solitude and Human ResponsibilityJesus withdrawing to pray as a model of sacred solitude.Solitude allows one to “return to oneself,” guarding against being lost in the crowd.The danger of losing selfhood in relationships, “becoming echoes of the crowd.”God, Limits, and OthersEvery other person as a God-given limit—“To honor another is to honor God.”Violating others as transgressing divine boundaries.True spirituality as respecting the space, limit, and presence of the other.Touch, Senses, and the ChurchThe sensory dimension of faith—seeing, touching, being seen.Mary's anointing of Jesus as embodied gospel.Rilke's “ripe seeing”: vision as invitation and affirmation.The church as a site of embodied presence—touch, seeing, listening as acts of communion.The Fear of Violation and the Gift of RespectLoneliness often born from fear of being violated rather than from lack of company.Loving another includes honoring their limit and respecting their freedom.Practical Reflections on LonelinessQuestions Volf asks himself: “Do I dare to be alone? How do I draw strength when I feel lonely?”The paradox of social connection in a digital age—teenagers side by side, “completely disconnected.”Love as sheer presence—“By sheer being, having a loving attitude, I relieve another's loneliness.”The Spiritual Discipline of SolitudeVolf's mother's daily hour of morning prayer—learning to hear God's voice like Samuel.Solitude as the ground for transformation: narrating oneself before God.“Nobody can die in my place… nobody can live my life in my place.”Solitude as preparation for love and life in community.About Miroslav VolfMiroslav Volf is the Henry B.

In this compelling episode of The Health and Wellness Coach Journal Podcast, Dr. Jessica Singh is joined by Tiffany Jana—widely known as Doc Jana (they/them)—to unpack Subtle Acts of Exclusion (SAEs) and why understanding them is essential for every coach and leader seeking to foster belonging and psychological safety. Doc Jana brings a holistic and transformative lens to this work as a best-selling social justice author, international keynote speaker, and founder of the world's first diversity-focused Certified B Corporation. They are a certified Sound Healing Practitioner, yoga, reiki, and meditation teacher, International Coaching Community (ICC) Certified Professional Coach, death doula, artist, and energy worker. Doc Jana has been featured in numerous publications and media including Fast Company, NY Times, and Forbes for their work on diversity, equity, empowerment, and inclusion. Together, Dr. Singh and Doc explore insights from Doc Jana's book, Subtle Acts of Exclusion: How to Understand, Identify, and Stop Microaggressions, co-authored with Dr. Michael Baran. The book offers a comprehensive framework for recognizing, reframing, and addressing microaggressions—often unconscious behaviors that can marginalize individuals and undermine psychological safety. Doc also discusses attributional ambiguity and internalized marginalization, offering strategies to turn negative self-talk and societal messages into affirmations of worthiness. They share how cultivating self-awareness and cultural humility enables coaches and leaders to create safer, more inclusive environments. This conversation is both deeply human and profoundly actionable. Doc Jana reminds us that inclusion begins within and that every coach and leader can foster belonging through presence, accountability, and compassion—one conversation at a time.

Welcome to Season 5, Episode 41! Today's guest is award-winning author Beth Lew-Williams. She's a Professor of History and the Director of the Program in Asian American Studies at Princeton University. She's best known for her work on migration, violence, and ethnic studies. She's also a 2025 winner of the Dan David Prize that honors innovative research on the human past. It's the largest history prize in the world, and only nine people were awarded it in 2025! Her latest book is John Doe Chinaman: A Forgotten History of Chinese Life under American Racial Law is published by Harvard University Press and was released on September 16 of this year (so it's available now)! We love the angle she takes by examining the laws, policies, and various regulations created by Federal, State, and Local leaders that impacted the Chinese in America. She uncovered thousands of laws and policies across the nation that targeted Chinese migrants. She also tells the stories of the Chinese Americans who refused to accept a conditional place in U.S. life. Lew-Williams previous book was The Chinese Must Go: Violence, Exclusion, and the Making of the Alien in America published in 2018 (also by Harvard University Press). In it, she maps the tangled relationships between local racial violence, federal immigration policy, and U.S. imperial ambitions in Asia. The Chinese Must Go won the Ray Allen Billington Prize and the Ellis W. Halley Prize from the Organization of American Historians. John Doe Chinaman isn't just for academia. It's for all those who are interested in reading about a part of America that hasn't been talked about as much. So it's great for all!

In this candid and insightful conversation, host Andy Storch welcomes back Mita Mallick to explore what effective leaders can learn from the worst bosses they've encountered.

Connect with Andy here: Website | LinkedInConnect with Mita: LinkedIn: Mita MallickTop 5 Key Notes:1.Bad Bosses Aren't Born, They're MadeMita emphasizes that most bad bosses don't set out to be that way—often they're shaped by their own experiences, circumstances, or lack of self-awareness. Many toxic behaviors are responses to external or personal stress, not innate malice.2.Recognizing Archetypes of Bad LeadershipMita's book introduces 13 archetypes of bad bosses, including Medusa (the bully), the Chopper (micromanager), the Napper (disengaged boss), and Tony Soprano (talent hoarder). These archetypes help us recognize and address negative behaviors in leadership.3.Impact of Exclusion and Toxic WorkplacesDrawing from her personal journey, Mita highlights the profound impact that exclusion and toxic bosses can have on employee wellbeing, engagement, and confidence. Her own experiences with bullies followed her from childhood schoolyards into the workplace, fueling her passion for building inclusive cultures.4.Advice for Employees Facing Toxic LeadershipMita suggests practical steps for employees: document toxic behavior, develop an exit strategy (even if it's internal), network discreetly, and focus on activities outside work that rebuild confidence. She stresses that individuals alone cannot fix toxic workplaces or change others' behavior—they have to prioritize their own well-being.5.Role of HR and Talent Professionals in Addressing ToxicityThe conversation offers guidance for HR and talent leaders: document issues, influence decision-makers with facts, and recognize when to recommend coaching—or, when necessary, help leaders move on. Using curiosity, vulnerability, and honest feedback can guide leaders toward positive change, but some situations may require more decisive...

Michael and Jeff explore the themes of spiritual formation, the dynamics of bounded and centered sets in the gospel, and the importance of community in transformation. They reflect on personal experiences, the role of scripture, and the metrics of growth in church health, emphasizing the need for a centered approach to spiritual growth that invites transformation rather than imposing rigid expectations.

This week we look at how Jesus called Israel to repentance, and how his approach differed from that of the Pharisees. 

The Elephant in the Universe: 100-year search for dark matter Author: Govert Schilling Challenging Dogma: MOND and the Exclusion of MACHO Headline: Alternative Gravity, MOND, Contests Dark Matter Theory as MACHOs are Ruled Out Amidst the elusive search for dark matter, alternative theories have emerged. Mordehai Milgrom and his colleagues developed Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND), proposing that our understanding of gravity is flawed at galactic scales, thereby explaining rotational curves without needing dark matter. While some like Jeremiah Ostriker dismiss it, others such as Stacy McGaugh acknowledge its surprising success in fitting observational data. Gravitational lensing, as demonstrated by the Bullet Cluster, offers strong evidence for dark matter by showing separate distributions of mass and gas during galaxy collisions, challenging MOND. Meanwhile, another dark matter candidate, Massive Compact Halo Objects (MACHOs)—very massive, compact objects in galactic halos—was extensively searched for in the 1990s using gravitational microlensing. Despite significant effort, these searches yielded no detections, effectively ruling out MACHOs as the primary form of dark matter. 1958
