Welcome to Hacking Your ADHD. I'm your host, William Curb, and I have ADHD. On this podcast, I dig into the tools, tactics, and best practices to help you work with your ADHD brain. Today, I'm joined by Skye Waterson for our Research Recap series. In this series, we take a look at a single research paper and dive into what the paper says, how it was conducted, and try and find any practical takeaways. In this episode, we're going to be discussing a paper called "Psychological Implications of Exclusion in Individuals with ADHD Symptomatology." That's a hard word there. This study asked a deceptively simple question: when people with ADHD symptoms are socially excluded, do their bodies respond differently than those without ADHD? And so basically, what we're talking about today is RSD, or Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria, which is something that a lot of people have really started to resonate with, but there isn't a ton of research on yet. And I think this is a great place for us to kind of dive in on that research. So let's get into it.

A 10-year-old autistic boy who brought a replica butterfly knife into school has had his permanent exclusion quashed by the High Court. The object was passed to another pupil during a playground altercation but caused no significant injury. The judge questioned whether the school's decision was proportionate and emphasised that permanent exclusion should be used only as a last resort. Was permanent exclusion justified in this case and what does “last resort” really mean? How should autism, SEND or unmet needs affect the consequences for serious behaviour? Should the response depend on the nature of the object, the child's intentions or the potential risk? When inclusion conflicts with the safety and education of other pupils, whose rights should take priority? The Points of View panel debates whether the ruling provides essential protection for vulnerable children or risks school leaders being second-guessed when making difficult safeguarding decisions. Are mainstream schools properly equipped to support children with complex needs and could making permanent exclusion harder lead to more suspensions, managed moves or informal exclusions instead? On the panel: Tom Rogers, Rae Whitehouse, JP and guest Andrew Old. 

Global SEO Multi Problem Solving Site Optimization Master Suite, Legal Cookies, Other Scripts Tags Special Exclusion Boxhttps://siteoptimization.osazuwaakonedo.news #MuPlugins #SiteSpeed, #SEO #WordPress #Cookies #TCF #IABOSAZUWAAKONEDO LIMITED today September 1, 2026, announced a major architectural update to its flagship dynamic site optimization suite, delivering an advanced synchronization framework that enforces an absolute post-load cushion to guarantee webpage layout stability across all production networks. The rollout introduces a dedicated, line-by-line Special Exclusion interface inside the administrator dashboard portal, allowing users to seamlessly whitelist specific keywords, script tokens, or plugin URL paths that require immediate execution. This update represents a critical shift from earlier system baselines, where certain external script assets—specifically legacy consent and cookie compliance frameworks—were strictly isolated. System evaluations had previously flagged those standard frameworks for severe performance drops, artificial render-blocking, and restrictive loading protocols that actively throttled the deployment of creative, fast-loading modern websites. To give network administrators total operational autonomy without compromising speed, the newly deployed pre-filtering gate allows essential compliance tools to bypass standard optimization delays. The exact microsecond a whitelisted element touches the document tree, it is validated in-memory, resolving compatibility issues where consent banners previously froze or failed to render. This ensures that whitelisted tools execute with native, un-delayed speed, while maintaining the suite's signature lightweight efficiency and ensuring local user device storage footprint growth remains at exactly zero bytes. #OsazuwaAkonedoBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/osazuwaakonedo--4980924/support.If you love how we break down the noise and deliver unfiltered news, we need your strength to stay completely independent.

What does it look like when a school actually meets a PDA child where they are, without behavior charts, compliance goals, or pressure to perform? In this episode I speak with three remarkable people: Melissa Petro, a cultural journalist and mother of an eight-year-old PDA son who fought for years to secure him a free and appropriate education; Chela Crane, Executive Director of Otto Specht School in New York, where Melissa's son Oscar is now thriving; and Suchi Swift, a Waldorf teacher at Otto Specht who works directly with Oscar.Together we cover Oscar's journey from expulsion at preschool and eight months of homeschooling through burnout, to the slow, non-linear process of rebuilding trust and regulation at a school that does not measure success through compliance. We also talk about what public school teachers can take from this model, what one family went through in fighting for private school placement, and what it actually looks like when a PDA child gets back into their thinking brain consistently and begins to lead their own learning.Key TakeawaysExpelled at Preschool, Eight Months of Homeschool, and What Burnout Looked Like | 00:03:45 Melissa's son Oscar was expelled from preschool after behavior charts, smiley face stickers, and compliance-based interventions produced aggression and shutdown rather than regulation. By the time he left school, his toileting had regressed, he had stopped eating, he had become aggressive with his sister, and he was nonverbal in the moments he most needed to communicate. Eight months of homeschooling followed, during which Melissa was simultaneously fighting the school district and caregiving for her son as his sole accommodation. One thing I want parents to hear in this story is what I see consistently across the families I work with: the behaviors that get a child expelled are the nervous system in survival mode, not the child.The Legal Fight for FAPE and Why It Is So Opaque | 00:08:51 To secure reimbursement for a private placement, a family must prove in court that the district failed to design an appropriate IEP, failed to find a public program that meets it, and then find a private program that does. Parents who succeed are often compelled to sign NDAs, which keeps the process invisible to other families who need it most. Melissa describes being accused of educational neglect for not following a behavioral prescription she knew in her gut did not fit her son. The fight for a free and appropriate public education, which every child is legally entitled to in the United States, is one of the most traumatizing experiences I hear about from families navigating this system.What the Otto Specht School Does Differently: Rhythm, Observation, and No Compliance Goal | 00:18:23 Suchi describes shifting her morning attendance routine from a desk task to a chalkboard drawing, which Oscar began arriving early to complete, drawing detailed tiger lilies to mark his presence. Chela names the single biggest difference in their model: success is never measured as compliance. Regulation and engagement come first, always, and academic skill development can only follow once those foundations are present. There are no behavior charts, no incentive systems, and no pressure on teachers to cover content regardless of where a child's nervous system is on a given day.How Oscar Got There: Trust, Time, and Self-Directed Exposure | 00:39:57 For the first year and a half, Melissa was not sure it was working. Oscar still had school refusal every day. The school allowed him to bring his snake and his kitten as transitional objects. But over time he want from leaving the room during music class to sitting on the side and drawing, then joining in, and then performing a solo in the school play. He could not ride a bike, and Melissa dropped the idea entirely at home, but then when he was ready Suchi taught him at school. He is now a musical theater kid who loves bike riding! What I see in that arc is what I try to help parents understand: self-directed, intrinsically motivated exposure at the pace the nervous system is ready for produces genuine skill and genuine joy. It cannot be rushed.What Teachers and Administrators Can Take From This, Even in Public Schools | 00:52:41 Suchi offers two practical starting points for any teacher: make attendance creative rather than procedural, and get to know every child's pet by name. Chela names the reframe that changes everything in any setting: behavior is information, not defiance. When we stop trying to change the behavior and start asking what the behavior is telling us, the nervous system underneath becomes visible and workable. Both teachers acknowledge that public school constraints are real and not the fault of individual teachers. But even within those constraints, one small shift toward curiosity and away from compliance as the primary metric can change the experience of a PDA child in that classroom.Relevant ResourcesOtto Specht School Website — The school featured in this episode, offering a Waldorf-based, neuro-affirming educational program for children who learn differently in New York.

Trey and Brandon break down a New Jersey ruling that's putting the D&O "capacity exclusion" back in the spotlight — what happens when a board member accused of wrongdoing sits on multiple boards, and why insurers can deny coverage if the alleged conduct ties back to a different company. They also cover a reinsurance 101 for producers: what reinsurance actually is, the difference between treaty and facultative coverage, who the major players are (Munich Re, Swiss Re, Lloyd's, the Bermuda market), and why retail brokers should care about reinsurance pricing even though they never touch that market directly......Resources & Links:

Have you ever dreamed that everyone else belonged—but you were left outside the circle? In this episode, Gloria Lybecker and Gail Donohue explore dreams of inclusion and exclusion and what they may reveal about belonging wounds, family patterns, caretaking, and the parts of us that are ready to come home. Gloria shares a personal dream involving a family gathering, responsibilities that had to be handled correctly, and women leaving on a trip without her. Beneath the dream is a deeper question: Am I valued for who I am—or only when I am helpful, useful, or caring for everyone else? Together, Gloria and Gail explore: the outsider and exiled-one archetypes caretaking as a survival strategy false belonging versus true belonging family roles we inherit or learn to perform how dreams reveal emotions the conscious mind may not yet recognize turning toward the younger part that still wonders, "What did I do wrong?" choosing belonging without abandoning yourself They also offer a gentle way to work with exclusion dreams by noticing the feeling, the role you played, and the part of you that may need care. A dream may begin in an old wound, but when met with compassion, it can reveal a path back to life.

Black love now competes inside an economy that can turn recognition into reward and public response into psychological evidence. For Black people, that competition enters through a historical field already charged by misrecognition, exclusion, racial projection, economic restriction, contested beauty, extracted cultural production, and repeated demands for exceptional performance. Digital platforms did not create the human hunger for recognition. They gave that hunger a visible score and a business model. Under those conditions, attention may deliver more immediate emotional voltage than intimacy. Desire can feel more convincing than devotion. Status can quiet doubt for a moment. Public approval can make private love feel strangely insufficient. The governing thesis asks whether unconditional love can retain psychological authority when a person learns to experience visibility as evidence of value. Once another person must continually confirm worth, relationship can shift from encounter toward regulation. A partner no longer carries only a human presence. The partner may also carry an assignment. Keep me significant in my own eyes. Black love therefore confronts a recognition problem that reaches through history, economics, technology, culture, and personal psychology. The decisive question asks whether Black life can cultivate forms of worth powerful enough to let love matter even when nobody watches.

A bipartisan bill gaining momentum in Congress could double the capital gains tax exclusion for homeowners who sell their primary residence. The proposal would raise the exclusion from $250,000 to $500,000 for single filers and from $500,000 to $1 million for married couples filing jointly, with future increases tied to inflation.   Supporters say the change could also help unlock housing inventory by removing a potential tax barrier for longtime homeowners who are reluctant to sell. Kathy Fettke explains what's in the More Homes on the Market Act, why the National Association of Realtors is backing it, and what the proposal could mean for homeowners, housing supply, and real estate investors.   Learn more about investing in Real Estate at RealWealth.com.   Source: https://www.realtor.com/news/real-estate-news/capital-gains-tax-exclusion-more-homes-on-the-market-act/

Fewer EPA headlines can feel like a green light, but environmental liability does not disappear when oversight fades. We sit down with CRC environmental specialists Harrison Scheider and Dustin Helmenstein to unpack the biggest misconception we hear from insureds and even seasoned agents: “less regulation means less environmental risk.” The laws that create liability largely remain, and the pollution exclusion in GL and property policies can turn an everyday incident into a painful coverage surprise.We dig into what makes environmental claims so tricky, and along the way, we connect the dots for common insured profiles including contractors, manufacturers, real estate owners, habitational and hotel risks, healthcare, and municipalities, plus what faster permitting and accelerated construction can change on the ground.To keep it practical, we share four questions retail agents can use right now to uncover exposures early, create better renewal conversations, and avoid relying on limited GL endorsements that are not true affirmative pollution coverage. If you want a clearer, more confident way to talk environmental insurance, pollution liability, and coverage gaps with clients, hit play and take notes.  Visit REDYIndex.com for critical pricing analysis and a snapshot of the marketplace.Do you want to take your career to the next level?

Two pen testers have spent thousands of hours inside client networks, and the most common failure they see isn't a missing security product — it's an EDR nobody ever tuned.In this episode, Spencer and Tyler open up the CrowdStrike Falcon console and walk through the specific settings that decide whether your team catches an attack or never sees it. They start with the story that kicked the whole thing off: Tyler running a pen test where every AMSI bypass gets blocked and detections fire left and right, while Spencer runs nearly identical tooling against the same product at another client and the SOC sees nothing all week. Same CrowdStrike. Same version. Different checkboxes.From there it's a tactical walkthrough of Endpoint Security → Prevention Policies and the settings worth your attention: Enhanced Exploitation Visibility, which unlocks command-line and PowerShell telemetry that Microsoft disables by default; Enhanced DLL Load Visibility for side-loading attacks; WSL2 Visibility, which closes a sandbox threat actors have been using to run Kali tooling under the radar; memory scanning for in-memory C# tradecraft; Office malicious macro removal; file system containment for ransomware over SMB; vulnerable driver protection, the direct mitigation for BYOVD attacks and EDR killers; and cloud-based anomalous process execution for living-off-the-land binaries.They also cover custom IOA rule groups for blocking unauthorized RMM tools, centralized firewall policy management, device policies for USB control, and a warning on exclusions — especially wildcard paths, which Tyler calls a threat actor's best dream.The takeaway is simple: you're paying real money for EDR, and default configurations aren't giving you what you paid for. Open your console, work through the settings, test them against an IT pilot group, and enable what fits your environment.TOPICS COVERED- Why EDR vendors ship deficient defaults on purpose- Enhanced Exploitation Visibility and the telemetry gap in PowerShell attacks- DLL side-loading, WSL2 abuse, and vulnerable driver attacks- Memory scanning and in-memory tooling detection- Blocking RMM tools with custom IOA rule groups- Exclusion hygiene and the wildcard path problem- Device policies, USB blocking, and insider threatSentinel One and Defender for Endpoint are next — let us know what else you want covered.Blog: https://offsec.blogWork with us on an internal pen test: https://securit360.comBlog: https://offsec.blog/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@cyberthreatpovTwitter: https://x.com/cyberthreatpovFollow Spencer on social ⬇Spencer's Links: https://spenceralessi.comWork with Us: https://securit360.com | Find vulnerabilities that matter, learn about how we do internal pentesting here.

What if the secret to building influence isn't adding more people—but becoming more selective?In this powerful conversation, Marquett Burton and his guest explore one of the most overlooked principles in business, leadership, and personal development: value is created through scarcity, standards, and exclusivity—not universal acceptance.From marketing psychology and organizational leadership to relationships and personal identity, this discussion breaks down why the world's strongest brands, communities, and leaders understand that everything valuable has a standard for entry.In this episode:* Why exclusivity creates value* The psychology behind scarcity and demand* How successful organizations build prestige* Why leaders should stop chasing everyone* Business lessons from fundraising and marketing* Playing from a position of strength instead of need* The mindset required to build high-value communities* Why standards attract higher-quality people* Leadership, discipline, and identity* How your self-image determines your successWhether you're building a business, leading a team, growing a movement, or improving yourself, this conversation challenges conventional thinking and offers a different perspective on creating lasting value.Do you believe great organizations should have higher standards for membership, or should everyone be included?

For many retirees, their home isn't just a place of comfort, it's one of the largest assets on their balance sheet. However, beyond the emotional value and the years of accumulated equity, there's an often-overlooked reality: selling your primary residence can bring an unexpected tax bill. If you're contemplating a sale or want to ensure you're planning wisely, understanding the IRS's primary residence capital gains exclusion is essential. On the show this week, I break down what this exclusion means, who qualifies, how to maximize its benefits, and the critical planning steps to avoid a nasty tax surprise.   You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in... [00:00] Understanding capital gains exclusion [03:52] Capital gains exclusion requirements [07:40] Reducing taxes on home sale [11:31] Calculating capital gains tax [14:57] Impact of capital gains on IRMAA   The Primary Residence Capital Gains Exclusion Thanks to the IRS, many homeowners can exclude a substantial portion of the capital gains realized from the sale of their primary residence. Single tax filers can exclude up to $250,000 of gains while married couples filing jointly enjoy up to a $500,000 exclusion. In practical terms, this means if your gain from selling your home stays within these thresholds, you may owe no federal tax on that profit.   Who Qualifies for the Exclusion?  Before assuming you'll benefit from this significant tax break, it's important to meet all IRS requirements:   1. The Ownership and Use Test: You must have lived in the home as your primary residence for at least two of the five years preceding the sale. These years don't need to be consecutive, but they must total at least 24 months within the five-year window.   2. Exclusion Frequency: You cannot have claimed the exclusion on another home sale within the past two years.   3. Acquisition History: The property generally cannot have been acquired through a 1031 like-kind exchange in the previous five years.   Special Rule for Widows and Widowers: If you've recently lost your spouse, you may still qualify for the full $500,000 exclusion if you sell within 24 months of your spouse's passing, don't remarry during this period, and have satisfied the other ownership and use requirements.   Why More Homeowners Now Face Capital Gains Taxes Home values have seen record appreciation over the last three decades, but the exclusion thresholds haven't changed since 1997. A homeowner who bought in their 20s or 30s might now find that decades of appreciation have pushed them well beyond the exclusion limits—and into taxable territory. If your gains surpass the exclusion, any additional gains are taxed either as short-term (if you've owned the home for a year or less) or, more commonly for longtime owners, as long-term capital gains (taxed at 0%, 15%, or 20% depending on your income).   Maximize Your Savings: Track and Increase Your Cost Basis One of the most effective strategies to reduce your taxable gain is to properly track and boost your home's cost basis. Your cost basis starts with your original purchase price and is increased by certain acquisition costs (settlement fees, title insurance, legal fees, etc.). Most importantly, capital improvements—such as room additions, roof replacement, major kitchen or bath remodels, or HVAC system upgrades—can be added. Routine maintenance and minor repairs generally don't increase your basis, so keeping thorough records of major projects and associated costs is crucial. Medicare Premiums and Tax Strategy Selling your home and realizing a large capital gain may bump you into a higher Medicare premium bracket, known as IRMAA, which can affect your Part B and Part D premiums a couple of years after the sale. This makes it essential to coordinate a home sale with your overall income strategy and consult both a financial advisor and CPA before listing your home.

John Opdycke — founder and president of Open Primaries, one of the leading organizations pushing to end closed partisan primaries — joins the Chuck Toddcast to make the case that the exclusion of independent voters is one of the great overlooked scandals of American democracy. Opdycke walks through the byzantine patchwork of voter and party registration rules that vary wildly by state, explains why so many independents sit out partisan primaries entirely, and argues that after 30 years of closed primaries the cumulative effect has been a system where the parties function as both the umpires and the players — a structure that simply doesn't work. He makes the bipartisan argument that tax dollars shouldn't fund the private nominating contests of what are essentially private organizations, and is pointedly critical of Democrats for actively fighting open primary initiatives.He notes that policies with 80% public support routinely fail to pass because voters don't actually have a meaningful say. The conversation turns tactical and forward-looking, with Opdycke offering a sober assessment of the broader reform landscape and its persistent failures. He argues the ranked-choice voting movement has made serious tactical errors, that the party in power always fights ranked choice voting, and that the modern reform and independent movement suffers from a fundamental lack of a compelling public face — as well as from philanthropic funders who attach outcome expectations that distort the work. Opdycke is candid that third parties fare poorly in nearly every electoral system, that Ross Perot's Reform Party is now essentially a shell, and that the American people still don't trust the reform movement — but he sees real opportunity in specific fights, particularly mobilizing Florida's independents to change the law and pursuing top-two systems that would genuinely open the door to competition. He notes the striking statistic that 10,000 people per week are changing their voter registration, laments the general lack of curiosity (and polling) about who swing voters actually are, and argues there's meaningful left-right overlap among libertarians that reformers could tap. They explore whether the redistricting wars could create a backlash against the two-party system, why there are only about 25 competitive House districts left, and why several states are now actually moving back toward closed primaries. They close with a clear-eyed take on 2028: the reform movement needs a credible presidential candidate, and with 2028 shaping up to be a wild and unpredictable year, the opening for that kind of disruption may be wider than it's been in decades.

Chuck Todd opens with the news that Trump is planning a primetime address to push election denialism, and uses it as a lens to examine how thoroughly fealty to the 2020 fraud lie has become the price of admission in Trump's Washington. He argues Todd Blanche should have no place in the Department of Justice, that he failed his test under questioning from John Cornyn, and that the weaponization fund could become the red line that finally moves Collins, Tillis, and Cornyn — because an inability to confirm Blanche would be a clear sign of Trump's weakening grip on the GOP. He points to the surreal spectacle of Jay Clayton refusing to answer Jon Ossoff's simple question of who won the 2020 election, looking like a ridiculous sycophant in the process, and to Trump endorsing MyPillow's Mike Lindell — the single biggest election conspiracy theorist in the country, a man who's lost every court case and been forced to pay $5 million over his false claims. He reminds listeners that it was Trump's own appointees who ran election security in 2020, that every major election denier from Giuliani on down has been forced to retract in court, and that Georgia's full hand recount matched the machines exactly — the only real constant in Trumpworld is that any outcome Trump dislikes gets branded fraud. He then turns to the mounting deaths during ICE encounters, arguing the violence isn't an anomaly but an entirely predictable consequence of an agency whose culture has been deliberately reshaped: DHS recruited candidates with violent psychological profiles using white nationalist slogans, imposed quotas that put officers under enormous stress, and pushed them into vehicle stops that former officials admit ICE has no experience conducting. In two fatal shootings the men killed weren't even the targets, witnesses have disputed the DHS account, there's no body cam footage, and Chuck argues DHS has zero credibility, even as Trump clearly wants the theater and the violent confrontations. On Iran, Chuck is blunt that having less leverage than before the war started is simply what losing a war looks like: the administration badly underestimated Iran's willingness to close the Strait of Hormuz, Iran deliberately decentralized its regime to survive decapitation strikes, and after three failed military strategies in five months, Trump has spent the entire war negotiating against himself — meaning the best America can now hope for is a managed stalemate, because Iran can't beat the U.S. military, it just has to wait out an increasingly impatient Trump. He closes on a lighter note with the House passing a bill to make daylight saving time permanent, offering the contrarian reminder that the public always wants permanent DST until they actually get it — kids forced to go to school in pitch darkness, and the simple reality that what's good for you in the evening is bad for someone else in the morning.

Send us Fan MailYou can feel it before you can explain it: you show up, you speak, and it's like the decision was made before you walked in. Now zoom that feeling out from a meeting to an entire neighborhood and you start to see what civic alienation and political powerlessness do to real human lives. I wanted a quiet, solo conversation about what happens to a community when large groups of people stop believing their voice matters, and what kindness looks like when the stakes are high.We dig into what social science says about civic exclusion and community health. When people experience learned helplessness in civic life, the ripple effects can be brutal: trust in neighbors drops, volunteerism declines, and mental health suffers. I talk through research on social capital and why participation is not just a “politics” issue, but a community stability issue. I also lean on ideas from Robert Putnam and Robert Sampson to make sense of what strengthens communities, especially the concept of collective efficacy, that shared belief that we can act together and make things better.Then we ground it in stories: the Mothers of East Los Angeles organizing with dignity and persistence, civil rights era organizing in Lowndes County built on mutual care, and modern examples like mutual aid networks, community land trusts, and participatory budgeting. Finally, I share practical ways to respond with courage: listen to understand, show up in local rooms, learn your community's history, connect across difference, and remember that kindness is not neutral when someone is being excluded.If this lands with you, subscribe, share it with someone who feels unheard, and leave a review so more people can find these conversations.This podcast is a proud member of the Mayday Media Network — your go-to hub for podcast creators.

For twenty years, Christian Wiman has lived with a rare, incurable cancer. In the fall of 2022, during a stretch when the illness was especially bad, he wrote to his friend and Yale colleague Miroslav Volf: “I don't know what faith means anymore. I'm a 56-year-old with a pile of books behind me and an experimental bone marrow transplant ahead of me, and I don't know what faith means.” That letter became the seed of an extended correspondence between the poet and the theologian, now published as Glimmerings: Letters on Faith between a Poet and a Theologian. In this special collaboration with Arc Magazine, editor Mark Oppenheimer sits down with Volf and Wiman to unpack the letters that grew out of their long friendship and years of walking together through New Haven. They discuss what it means to love God, why doubt and absence might be constitutive elements of faith and presence rather than its opposite, and how a terminal diagnosis changed what each of them was willing to say and how freely they said it. They also trace the thinkers who shaped their thinking along the way, from Simone Weil's account of attention to Etty Hillesum's wartime writing, to Abraham Joshua Heschel's theology of the prophets, and they wrestle openly with where their understandings of Jesus Christ converge and diverge. Along the way, Wiman reflects on writing from a hospital room at Massachusetts General, on discovering that his fear was never death itself but the fear of dying without God, and on why grief, not fear, is what remains even after that fear falls away. Episode Highlights I don't know what faith means anymore. I'm a 56-year-old with a pile of books behind me and an experimental bone marrow transplant ahead of me, and I don't know what faith means. I sometimes find it hard to think what it means to love God. I don't know how to love God. Faith is what matters. Belief seems to me a matter of the institution and ascending to creeds and things like that. I think most of my theological thinking is existentially motivated. It's motivated by the kind of inner logic of the trust in which I'm involved. Most of the books that I wrote, I've written for myself. I'm one of those writers who doesn't have an audience. There is grace in my life if I can just keep my eyes open enough to see it. His mistake in some ways lets him see that the world is right, that there's a rightness to the world. What becomes clear is one's longing for God. Everything is stripped away and very little else seems to matter. What I want most in my life is the presence of God. And I fear dying without that. Just being alone at the moment of death. I was worried that he won't have God in that situation of need because attention might be lacking. About Miroslav Volf and Christian Wiman Miroslav Volf is the Henry B. Wright Professor of Theology at Yale Divinity School and founding director of the Yale Center for Faith & Culture. He is the author of Exclusion and Embrace, the NYT bestseller Life Worth Living (with Ryan McAnnally-Linz and Matt Croasmun), The Cost of Ambition, and more than twenty other books. Christian Wiman is the Clement-Muehl Professor of Communication Arts at Yale Divinity School. He has written and edited numerous volumes of poetry. He has lived with a rare blood cancer, Waldenström macroglobulinemia, for more than twenty years, an experience he wrote about in his memoirs My Bright Abyss and Zero at the Bone.

Imagine a menu where every cocktail has a zero-proof twin, every allergy is anticipated, and nothing—even the juice from a can of chickpeas—goes to waste. This episode is all about pushing past the 'Shirley Temple standard' and building truly inclusive and sustainable food & beverage experiences, one thoughtful pivot at a time." From batch-prepping for reduced waste to designing mocktails that rival their spirited siblings, Tracy along with Evan Askey and Colby Poulin of Vast in Oklahoma City explore what it takes to create menus that welcome everyone—regardless of food preference, restriction, or choice to skip the alcohol. They reveal how their programs eliminate outcasts at the table, use innovative bar techniques like super juicing and aquafaba powders, and maximize local sourcing, all while cutting costs and keeping flavor and experience front and center. Take away concrete tips for allergen management, sustainability in large-scale dining, and building bar programs that let everyone—kids, non-drinkers, food allergy guests—join in the celebration.

A court ruling affirming tribal authority over hunting and fishing rights on reservation lands has renewed conversations about sovereignty, citizenship, and belonging; It has also raised concerns among Freedmen descendants who remain excluded from certain tribal rights and benefits, including hunting and fishing privileges in some nations. Focus: Black Oklahoma correspondent Deon Osborne explores what justice looks like for descendants of formerly enslaved people who were once part of tribal communities.A recent protest organized by Tulsa's chapter of Food Not Bombs, or FNB, has renewed debate about free speech and public demonstration. What began as a public action focused on the issue of hunger ended with multiple arrests and citations issued to participants. What happened that day, and what does it reveal about the relationship between local government, law enforcement, and grassroots activism? FBO's Aristotle Orsini has the story.What does it mean to live in a place that was never meant to feel like home? Across the country, extended stay hotels have become a last resort for individuals and families navigating housing instability. Behind those doors are stories often overlooked: of stress, isolation, resilience, and the quiet toll that instability takes on mental health. For those living on the margins, where access to care is limited and community can feel out of reach, how do people cope—and what support truly exists? Here's Nick Alexandrov with more. This segment is taken from a one hour podcast which is part of a larger quarterly effort from Oklahoma media addressing mental health. Find the rest of the quarterly and more stories and coverage from Tulsa Flyer, The Oklahoma Eagle, KOSU, La Semana, and The Frontier at https://tulsaflyer.org/snapshot/mental-health/.Each year Tulsa pauses to remember one of the darkest chapters in U.S. history—the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre. Today, that memory rests largely in the voice of one woman: Mother Lessie Benningfield Randle, the last known living survivor. Mother Randle has become a powerful advocate–testifying before the House Judiciary Committee on May 19, 2021, sharing her experiences, and calling attention to the lasting impact of the massacre more than a century after it occurred. Her testimony serves as both a personal account and a national challenge to remember, reckon with, and pursue justice.Music can entertain, inspire, and spark change—and few artists embody that power more than Rocky Dawuni. Born in Ghana and celebrated around the world, Dawuni blends Afro-roots music, reggae, and global influences to create songs that promote unity, social justice, and cultural understanding. During a recent stop at New York University, or NYU, Acra, FBO's Zaakirah Muhammad profiles the artist, activist, and United Nations ambassador behind the music, exploring how his sound bridges continents and how his message continues to resonate with audiences across the globe.Sometimes love looks less like grand gestures and more like a long drive down the highway. When her son needed to move between Texas and Tulsa, one mother didn't hesitate—even though the car making the journey was far from road ready. Equiped with determination, patience, and a mother's unwavering commitment, Sondra Slade took on the challenge to help her son reach his next chapter.Focus: Black Oklahoma is produced in partnership with KOSU Radio & Tri-City Collective.

In this episode, we revisit the 2015 LDS Church policy that restricted children from baptism and confirmation if they had a parent in a same-sex relationship. Church leaders later described the policy as revelation and doctrinally consistent, but it was quietly reversed just a few years later.We walk through key public statements and interviews from senior LDS leadership, including Russell M. Nelson, Dallin H. Oaks, Todd Christofferson, and Sheri Dew, placing their explanations in sequence to examine how the policy was framed publicly over time.The video then contrasts those explanations with the policy's later withdrawal, raising questions about institutional messaging, hindsight framing, and how doctrinal justification is constructed in real time.This is a structured, documentary-style breakdown of the language used, the timeline of statements, and how the narrative around the policy evolved.Based on: https://tinyurl.com/2sey66k7Please consider making a donation by joining our Patreon https://www.patreon.com/MormonNewsRoundup Email: kolob@mormonnewsroundup.org Website: https://mormonnewsroundup.org/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mormonnewsroundup Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mormon_news_roundup/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100093511869924 X: https://twitter.com/NewsMormon New episodes LIVE every Sunday and Monday nights at 9:30PM ESTPlease like and subscribe and hit the notifications bell.

And she was an investigative reporter for ProPublica.Nicole has a degree in mass communications from Winston Salem State, a masters from Syracuse, and is currently studying for a doctorate at Clark-Atlanta University.Nicole talked about her book writing journey and why she wrote it. She explained how she linked past to present with the story of her great grandfather's becoming a doctor and his work as one, in conjunction with an explanation about the shortage of Black doctors in America. She provided tips for those interviewing people "in the fourth quarter of their lives" and explained how a cold e-mail to Kamala Harris' father led to a gold mine of information.We also talked about an article Nicole wrote for ProPublica about a school administrator from Maryland who took a new job in Georgia and was promptly chased out of town by overzealous anti-Critical Race Theory parents.If you were a fan of the Longform podcast, I think you'll like the approach we took in this episode.Link to Nicole's bookhttps://www.harpercollins.com/products/the-price-of-exclusion-nicole-carrNicole's ProPublica storyhttps://www.propublica.org/article/georgia-dei-crt-schools-parentsNicole on the importance of the Black Presshttps://theemancipator.org/2024/11/09/topics/movements/the-black-press-democratized-america/Nicole's salute: Ida B.

Exclusion of evidence and habeas corpus? Who needs us? It's a Dallin Oaks episode and we go over two law review articles (pub. 1966 & 70) he wrote focusing on the rights of criminals. How we handle evidence consistent with the constitution is a complicated issue and Hoaks has a hot take. Plus, he thinks habeas corpus has gotten a bit out of hand with how many death row convicts it was helping. Then we dive through 2 more chapters from Pure in Heart about Spirituality and Worship. The hot takes here are akin to moldy soup in the back of the fridge. We round out with happy civil engineering news from California!   Show Notes:  Studying the Exclusionary Rule in Search and Seizure https://chicagounbound.uchicago.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=3650&context=uclrev Search and Seizure laws and SCOTUS rulings https://www.uscourts.gov/about-federal-courts/educational-resources/about-educational-outreach/activity-resources/what-does-fourth-amendment-mean https://www.justia.com/criminal/procedure/search-and-seizure-rules/ https://constitution.congress.gov/browse/essay/amdt4-7-1/ALDE_00000805/ Legal History in the High Court–Habeas Corpus (1966) https://repository.law.umich.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=5483&context=mlr Bushel's Case https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bushel%27s_Case   Sword of Laman: Pure In Heart, by Dallin H.

Hangovers, Speech Exclusion, Ben Hutchens, and CFB Hall of Fame - Monday Hour 2

In 1680 and 1681, Shaftesbury led an increasingly shrill and effective campaign, asppeling to popular opinion to force Charles into calling a new parliament. There he could be forced to learn about the power of the exlusionist movement which could be brought to bear. But Charles would learn a different lesson, and at Oxford in 1681, would start his own campaign. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

3/16: Richard Epstein explores legal challenges regarding redistricting following Louisiana v. Kales. He details the evolution of the Voting Rights Act from addressing racial exclusion to modern debates over partisan gerrymandering. Epstein argues that while technology aids gerrymandering, it increases electoral risks in "wave" elections.1900 MEXICO CITY

Heading as we are into the 1680s on the timeline of the History of the Americans, it will be useful for all of us to know a few basic things about English politics in the 1680s, including especially the “exclusion crisis” of 1679-1681 and the Glorious Revolution of 1688. Both had a big impact on our own history. Along the way we learn more about John Locke, how the acquittal of William Penn transformed the law in England and ultimately the United States, the actual conspiracy between the English King Charles II and Louis XIV of France, the origin of the words “Tory” and “Whig” at the moment that the English invented political parties, the role of infant mortality in the politics of a monarchy, and the awful, but hilarious, “Popish Plot” conspiracy theory that shaped English politics in 1679-81.

Pre-order ⁠⁠The Mental Strength Playbook⁠⁠ before April 28th and get exclusive bonuses delivered instantly — including a mental strength audit and the book's introduction. Have you ever wondered why an unanswered text can send you into a spiral? Or why you keep having the same fight with your partner over and over again? It might be your attachment style. And the good news is, you can actually rewire your brain to feel more secure in your relationships. My guest today is Dr. Amir Levine, psychiatrist, molecular neuroscientist, and the bestselling author of Attached. He's back with a brand new book called Secure, where he shares how the small, everyday moments of connection can change your brain on a molecular level. Some of the things we discuss in this episode are: Why you can be securely attached to one person in your life and anxiously attached to another — and what that reveals about you. The "cyberball effect" and the surprising reason your brain reacts to being left off a group text the same way it reacts to physical pain. The shocking experiment that proved exclusion hurts even when the people excluding you aren't good people. The 5 pillars of a secure connection — and the simple acronym (CARP) you can use to evaluate every relationship in your life. Why even a nod from a stranger in an elevator matters more to your brain than you think. The "CARP intervention" — what to do when someone in your life isn't showing up for you. Why you don't need years of therapy or a massive breakthrough to become more secure. The fascinating science of why some people are wired for closeness and others aren't — and what a microscopic worm can teach us about it. How to "reshuffle your social media" (the people in your life, not the apps) to create a secure bubble around yourself. The reason recalling childhood memories in a secure environment can actually edit those memories — and heal them. If you've ever felt like you're too needy, too distant, or just bad at relationships, this conversation will change how you think about connection — and give you the tools to start feeling more secure today.

Paul Halpern recounts how as the Big Bang theory gained acceptance, Gamow sought recognition for his 1940s predictions regarding cosmic radiation before his death in 1968. Conversely, Hoyle faced a controversial Nobel Prize exclusion for his work on stellar elements, leading him toward increasingly eccentric theories — championing "panspermia," suggesting life and diseases arrived via comets, while challenging Darwinian evolution. Halperncharacterizes both protagonists as "seat of the pants" thinkers who prioritized spontaneous intuition over slow, archival scientific development. (4)NOVEMBER 1957
