State increases renewables projection, finalizes all-electric law Two months after declaring its intention to build a nuclear plant to provide at least 1 gigawatt of power, the New York Power Authority (NYPA) has another ambitious initiative. The draft of the agency's updated strategic plan calls for wind, solar and battery storage projects to provide 7 gigawatts - enough to power between 5 million and 7 million homes - built by the NYPA or private developers. The plan is online at bit.ly/NYPA2025 and the authority will hold virtual public hearings on Aug. 19 and Aug. 20. See nypa.gov/public-hearings to register. Although none of the proposed projects are in Dutchess or Putnam counties, the number of renewable energy projects is more than double that in the NYPA's strategic plan released just eight months ago. NYPA credits the boom to funding from the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act, which included subsidies and incentives for renewable energy projects. "The last few years have seen a massive growth, not only in the wind and solar that we're adding to our system, but our ability to manufacture and train so that we have a workforce and a system that is ready to meet growing demand," said Amanda Levin, director of policy analysis for the Natural Resources Defense Council. In March, NYPA announced that it would be taking ownership of a solar energy project outside of Glens Falls. A month later, NYPA and the City of Albany announced a plan to develop a solar project on a capped landfill. That project will also be the first to participate in an NYPA program in which power is sold to low- and moderate-income families at reduced rates. But federal actions are threatening to delay the state renewables boom. The budget signed into law by President Donald Trump on July 4 ended the Inflation Reduction Act's incentives for renewables, except for batteries. A series of executive orders imposed additional restrictions on renewables, including penalties for importing materials from China, a leading manufacturer of renewable energy equipment. This month, the Department of the Interior announced plans to subject wind and solar projects, including some already approved, to "further review." Due to the federal changes, Christopher Hutson, the NYPA's senior vice president of development, warned at a July 29 board meeting of the possibility that not all of NYPA's renewable projects will come to fruition, although some "may progress on their own." The IRA's tax credits for renewables won't end immediately; wind and solar projects that begin construction by July 2026 or begin service by Dec. 31, 2027, can still claim them. Hutson said the state could begin construction of some projects ahead of schedule to meet those deadlines. "Every developer in the country right now is seeking to rapidly procure equipment," he said. "It will be critical to move fast." The NYPA announcement wasn't the only big step New York took last week toward its long-term climate goals. The 2023 All-Electric Buildings Act cleared a hurdle when the State Fire Prevention and Building Code Council approved required changes. The law will take effect at the end of the year, making New York the first state to require that all new buildings be powered with electricity instead of oil and gas. Existing buildings are not required to switch, even if renovated, and certain buildings, such as restaurants and crematoriums, are exempt. The law also only applies to buildings up to seven stories high. (Taller buildings have until 2028.) In 2023, Beacon passed a law banning fossil fuels in new construction projects, before the state law. About a third of New York state's greenhouse gas emissions come from buildings, according to a December report issued by the New York Department of Environmental Conservation. James Hartford, co-owner of River Architects in Cold Spring, doesn't expect the law to change much for his business. As the founder of the New York chapter of the Passive House Alliance, ...

An episode from Ranchero Drive Baptist Church, a Bible believing, Bible preaching church in Kerrville, Texas.What Ranchero Drive Baptist Church (RDBC) Believes: The ScripturesWe believe the scriptures are verbally inspired of God making them the supreme and final authority for our faith and practice, and are preserved in the KJV Authorized Version. GodWe believe in one God existing in three persons (The Holy Trinity): God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. Existing without beginning and without end. JesusWe believe in the Deity of Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His death on the cross to pay in full the debt for our sins, His resurrection, and His coming return. The Holy SpiritWe believe the Holy Spirit is the third person of the Trinity, one with the Father and the Son, the indweller of every believer to enlighten and seal each believer until the day of redemption of the body.ManWe believe that God created man in His image in a state of innocence, but through temptation, man transgressed and became dead in trespasses and sins. As a result, all men inherited a corrupt nature, are born in sin and are under condemnation. Security of the BelieverWe believe that those who, by faith, receive Jesus Christ as their personal Savior are born again of the Holy Spirit, are the children of God, are heirs and joint-heirs with Jesus Christ, are kept by the power of God and can know they are eternally saved forever! Last ThingsWe believe in the imminent, pre-tribulation, pre-millennial return of Christ. The Lord shall return for His church and rapture out the church at any given moment. The world will then enter into a seven-year period of tribulation that will end with the battle of Armageddon and the Second Advent of Jesus Christ. He will come as “King of Kings” and “Lord of lords”, and establish His kingdom that will last for 1,000 years. The Lord will then judge the living and the dead at the Great White Throne Judgement (which is different from the judgement Seat of Christ where the Lord judges the Church). After this, all the lost, Satan, death and hell are cast into the Lake of Fire, while the Lord and His saints enter into “Eternal Bliss”.

Transcript The Lord doesn't love, the Lord IS love. So what love does is that it has to bring into being what is other than itself. In order for love to exist, there has to be two. But the Lord can't bring into being a being that is Divine like Himself, because that would be loving Himself. So what the Lord brings into being is what is other than Himself. Now if you define Divinity, Divinity is to have life in oneself. That's what Divinity is. To be the source of life itself. To not be Divine, is to be a receiver of life. So everything that is created is not the Lord, it is a receiver of the Lord's life. Now in order to have a reciprocal relationship, that life has to be received by the creature, or what is created, in a way whereby it feels it to be its own. So the feeling has to be there that I am a self. But the understanding is that that feeling is a product of the Lord's in flowing life. It's not something sourced in myself, although by all appearances it does. Then you have the conditions for reciprocity, which is what love is. It's communion and connection. So that's the only way the Divine Being as love, can have love manifest as if there is another being that for all intents of purposes operates as if it is Divine but knows that it's not. And the more that you know that you don't have life in yourself, then the more infilling there is from the Divine and the more fully you feel alive. So there's kind of a paradox that sits in there. Now from our perspective, where we believe we have life in ourselves, it all looks like - My goodness, if I have to give this up then I am nothing! And so you spiral into - What is it all about? Well what the Word says is that every human being that comes into being has come into being through a need within the Grand Man to fulfill a use in the whole of the community, a unique use that only that being can fulfill. And so that's what's behind human beings being born, is that they're being born for heaven to infill these uses in this community of heaven. So an example is like when you are in a use that you love, you give no thought to yourself. Like your sense of self just doesn't exist in that time stands still, or time doesn't exist either. You're fully in the joy of what you're doing and it's not self referencing. Well that's angelic consciousness, and angels do not self reference but they're more fully alive and feel the life in the joy and the purpose and the meaning of being itself because they don't have that belief in oneself getting in the way and obscuring the Lord's life. So the Lord's desire is to give all that He is to another. That's what love does, and love can't do anything else but that, because the Lord is the fullness of all we can imagine from a perspective of happiness and joy and meaning and purpose. The more we can receive of Him, the greater our sense of meaning, happiness, joy and purpose is. So the other aspect to it is that what we can say is that that life is nothing like how we experience life at this particular point in our development. So we struggle to see what joy and happiness is without self referencing whereas it's actually true joy, true peace. True love is when the self is no longer something that's looking to take for itself what it wants or what it believes will make it happy because humility, happiness, joy, all of these things arise when the self is put off. That's what we become and that's what heaven is. So all there is, is as of self. There is no self other than the Lord. The Lord is the only Self. So just by extension, there can only be as of self and all sense of me being a self falls into the realm of falsity. So we are receivers of the Lord's life. We don't have life in our self and by definition only that which has life in itself is a self. So the Lord is the only self. The struggle we have is around trying to live out of an as of self as opposed to out of my-self. Well,

After months of student loan chaos, there's clarity: If you're already borrowing, you'll probably be okay, though keep an eye out for some plan changes. But for anyone planning to borrow after July 2026, the picture gets a lot murkier. Higher payments, tighter loan limits, and longer repayment terms could reshape graduate and professional education in ways we haven't seen before. Learn why most current borrowers can breathe a little easier, what changes are coming for Parent PLUS and grad school loans, and why future students may need to rethink their strategies altogether. We also explore how schools themselves might have to adapt, and what this could mean for high-cost programs in dentistry, medicine, pharmacy, and law. Key moments: (5:19) Active students can continue borrowing until 2026 and for three more years beyond (09:20) Parent PLUS loans borrowed after July 2026 won't qualify for any affordable IDR plan (13:27) Universities may see faculty cuts tied to falling enrollment once borrowing limits change (17:19) Borrowing limit changes likely won't be revisited until mid-2027 at the earliest (23:13) There's nothing to worry about right away — no loan rule changes take effect before July 2026 Resource mentioned: The Price You Pay for College by Ron Lieber Like the show?

China's cyberspace and health regulators have announced heightened supervision of online health science content as more medical professionals turn to social media to share educational materials — a trend that has also spurred profit-driven abuse and misinformation risks.随着越来越多的医疗专业人员转向社交媒体分享教育材料,中国的网络空间和卫生监管机构宣布加强对在线健康科学内容的监管,这一趋势也引发了利润驱动的滥用和错误信息风险。Efforts will focus on verifying the medical credentials of content creators, requiring source attribution and banning advertisements for medical or healthcare products, according to a notice jointly released on Friday by the Cyberspace Administration of China, the National Health Commission, the State Administration for Market Regulation and the National Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine.根据中国国家互联网信息办公室、国家卫生健康委员会、国家市场监督管理总局和国家中医药管理局周五联合发布的通知,将重点核实内容创作者的医疗资质,要求来源归属,并禁止医疗或保健产品的广告。The notice highlighted how measures aim to "promote the production and dissemination of scientifically accurate health knowledge while curbing the spread of false and misleading information".通知强调了这些措施旨在“促进科学准确的健康知识的生产和传播,同时遏制虚假和误导性信息的传播”。Under the new rules, internet platforms must verify medical licenses or employment certificates of content creators, who are required to be affiliated with medical institutions, schools or pharmaceutical research institutes.根据新规定,互联网平台必须验证内容创作者的医疗执照或就业证明,内容创作者必须隶属于医疗机构、学校或制药研究机构。Existing social media accounts must verify their credentials within two months of notification, while newly registered accounts will be barred from posting health-related content until certified.现有的社交媒体帐户必须在收到通知后两个月内验证其凭据,而新注册的帐户在获得认证之前将被禁止发布与健康相关的内容。Creators are also required to cite sources related to health education content and disclose whether AI-generated material or dramatizations of historical medical cases are included.创作者还需要引用与健康教育内容相关的来源,并披露是否包括人工智能生成的材料或历史医学病例的戏剧化。Platforms must inform influencers that they are responsible for ensuring the scientific accuracy and authenticity of their content.平台必须告知影响者,他们有责任确保其内容的科学准确性和真实性。In addition, all forms of advertisements — including contact information or purchase links — for medical services, pharmaceuticals, medical devices or health foods will be prohibited.此外,将禁止一切形式的医疗服务、药品、医疗器械或保健食品广告,包括联系信息或购买链接。The notice also calls for a crackdown on misconduct such as illegal online consultations, sexually suggestive content disguised as health education, fabricated narratives promoting products and the impersonation of licensed physicians.该通知还呼吁打击不当行为,如非法在线咨询、伪装成健康教育的性暗示内容、虚假宣传产品和冒充执业医生。Local authorities have been instructed to guide platforms in improving oversight and to direct hospitals to monitor the conduct of medical workers while online, with penalties for violations. Market regulators will investigate illegal advertising activities.地方当局已接到指示,指导平台加强监督,并指示医院监督医务人员在网上的行为,对违规行为进行处罚。市场监管机构将调查非法广告活动。At a recent news conference, Hu Qiangqiang, a spokesman for the National Health Commission, said common violations by doctors who are also influencers include directing followers to offline services, offering illegal online consultations, selling products via livestreams and prescribing overpriced medications.在最近的一次新闻发布会上,国家卫生健康委员会发言人胡强强表示,医生作为影响者的常见违规行为包括引导追随者使用线下服务、提供非法在线咨询、通过直播销售产品以及开出高价药物。"Patients must first undergo offline diagnosis and receive a clear medical assessment before pursuing follow-ups through qualified online hospitals," Hu said, urging the public to remain cautious.胡说:“患者必须首先接受线下诊断,并接受明确的医疗评估,然后才能通过合格的在线医院进行随访。”他敦促公众保持谨慎。Among China's 1.07 billion internet audio and video users, 92 percent have viewed health education content on short-video platforms, and 63 percent consume it regularly, according to a report analyzing 150,000 health science videos posted by 14,700 social media accounts between 2023 and 2024.根据一份分析2023年至2024年间14700个社交媒体账户发布的15万个健康科学视频的报告,在中国10.7亿互联网音频和视频用户中,92%的人在短视频平台上观看过健康教育内容,63%的人经常消费。Produced by researchers from Fudan University and Tianjin Normal University, the report found that surgery is the most frequently featured medical specialty online. Respiratory diseases — particularly lung nodules and lung cancer — as well as thyroid and breast nodules, tend to draw high traffic.复旦大学和天津师范大学的研究人员发布的这份报告发现,手术是网上最常见的医学专业。呼吸系统疾病,尤其是肺结节和肺癌,以及甲状腺和乳腺结节,往往会吸引大量交通。While some doctors have employed entertaining approaches to engage audiences, the report warns of rising homogeneity and content that stokes fear about certain diseases. It also highlights growing concerns about AI-generated medical content, citing risks to patient privacy and public trust.虽然一些医生采用了有趣的方法来吸引观众,但报告警告说,同质化和内容的增加会引发人们对某些疾病的恐惧。它还强调了人们对人工智能生成的医疗内容日益增长的担忧,理由是患者隐私和公众信任面临风险。Wang Fan, a professor at the Fudan Development Institute and a co-author of the report, said online health science communication has reached a stage where regulatory intervention is needed to curb malpractice and ensure sustainable development.复旦大学发展研究院教授、该报告的合著者王帆表示,网络健康科学传播已经到了需要监管干预的阶段,以遏制医疗事故,确保可持续发展。licensed physiciansn.执业医师/ˈlaɪsənst fɪˈzɪʃənz/malpracticen.玩忽职守;渎职/ˌmælˈpræktɪs/
This episode of Financial Clarity for Doctors delves into some updates to charitable giving under the new One Big Beautiful Bill as well as some other items in the bill that may affect listeners. Hosts Corey Janoff and Rachelle Vanderzanden walk through some highlights. Keep in mind that federal policy evolves as the executive branch and Congress evolve. This is the tax structure for now, but not forever. Changes under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act include: Non-itemizers may deduct charitable gifts of up to $1,000 per person, $2,000 per couple. Itemized deductions will be limited to gifts exceeding 0.5% of Adjusted Gross Income (AGI). Grouping gifts into a single tax year may still be beneficial for many people. Tax brackets, higher standard deductions, and high estate tax exemptions have been made “permanent”. Student loans from the federal government will be limited for new borrowers. Student loan payment plans will be limited to two options for new borrowers: a standard repayment plan and the income-driven RAP plan. The new RAP plan will be 10% of AGI (not discretionary income). Existing borrowers may need to switch payment plans if they are on SAVE or PAYE before July 2028, but still have more options than new borrowers. Most tax credits geared toward energy efficiency are being phased out. Introduction of “Trump” accounts with a $1,000 federal government deposit for kids born from 2025 to 2028.

In this KE Report Company Introduction, I speak with Bob Archer, President and CEO of Pinnacle Silver and Gold (TSX.V: PINN | OTC: PSGCF | Frankfurt: P9J), as the company shifts its primary focus to Mexico with the El Potrero Project, following a strategic option agreement signed in February 2025. Key Highlights from the Interview Strategic Shift to Mexico and Restarting Production Pinnacle Silver and Gold transitioned from its Canadian-focused past to pursue high-grade, near-term production opportunities in Mexico. The flagship El Potrero Project, located in the Topia district of Durango, is a past-producing asset, comprising multiple high-grade underground gold-silver mines. The company is using a cash-flow-first model - similar to Bob's prior success at Great Panther - aiming for production before establishing a large resource. Early Sampling Results Surface and underground channel sampling from the central “Pino Cuata” zone delivered grades as high as 85 g/t gold and 520 g/t silver (individual sample) Production-First Strategy and Flexible Option Deal Structured to earn 50% upon entering production, with the path to 90% and potentially 100% ownership. Targeting small-scale, high-margin production (~100 TPD), reducing permitting complexity and capital needs. Existing mill infrastructure and underground access greatly accelerate timelines and reduce costs. Well-Rounded Team with Strong Local Ties CEO Bob Archer brings 45+ years of experience, including founding Great Panther and multiple mine restarts in Mexico. Key technical advisors include metallurgical engineer David Salari, global geologist Colin Jones, and a Mexican technical team with local experience and community engagement. Strong Start to 2025 and Fully Subscribed Financing Recently closed a $1.3M financing, enabling mapping, LIDAR surveys, and potentially underground drilling as early as September. Pinnacle is also evaluating additional acquisition opportunities to replicate the Great Panther playbook. Red Lake Projects Remain in the Portfolio Two 100%-owned assets in Ontario (including the historic Argosy Mine) are on the back burner but remain part of the long-term growth pipeline. Please email me with any follow up questions you have for Bob - Fleck@kereport.com.

“I'm not living the life I thought I would—but I *am* living. I'm no longer just existing. It's hard. It's painful. But it's real. This is my reality.”Nothing in my life feels "normal." There's no roadmap. Just the cards I've been dealt—and I'm learning to play them, even when the deck feels stacked against me.I've faced adversity that's shaped me into the person I am today. One moment that really stands out is being dismissed by a doctor when I raised concerns about breast cancer. That experience taught me a powerful lesson: "your gut is gold". You have to trust it—even when others won't listen.Key TakeawaysListen to your gut — It's there for a reason. Don't silence it to keep others comfortable.Take note of who shows up— When the sh*t hits the fan, you learn who's truly in your cornerBe your own advocate — Doctors are not gods. You know your body better than anyone."You do you” in health battles — There is no one-size-fits-all. Do what you need to survive, heal, or just make it through the day.Existing vs. Living — There's a world of difference. I've learned that choosing to "live"—even if it's messy or painful—is worth everything.allaboutyoupodcast@yahoo.comhttps://www.youtube.com/@allaboutyoupodcast2505
In our theological survey of Genesis, we are examining the doctrine of man. In Genesis one, we learn that we exist by the will of God, and for the will of God. We live because God willed us to live. This is where we find purpose and meaning in life. Existing by the will of God, and for the will of God, has application to our lives. It helps make sense of the suffering and despair we experience. It teaches us that our days are in his hands. It helps us think properly about ourselves, our natural strengths and weaknesses, and God's creation of us as male or female.

ADD COACHING TO WHAT YOU'RE ALREADY DOING - You don't have to become someone new to become a coach. In this episode, we'll talk about how to add coaching to your existing work as a writer, speaker, ministry leader, or therapist. When you blend what you already offer with a coaching mindset, you create space for deeper transformation and sustainable impact.

And subscribe to Rosemary Barnes' YouTube channel here. Have a question we can answer on the show? Email us! A major wind turbine supplier in Pensacola, Florida is scaling back expansion plans. Jupiter Bach, a Denmark-based company, is pausing hiring after passage of President Trump's energy bill. The company makes nacelle covers and other components for wind turbines. Plant manager Sean Guidry says the company had planned to grow its local workforce from two hundred forty to more than three hundred twenty employees next year. Now he says they see a more flat year. The policy shift comes after President Trump signed the One Big Beautiful Bill into law earlier this month. The legislation significantly shortens the eligibility window for wind and solar tax credits. Projects must now break ground by twenty twenty-six and enter service by twenty twenty-seven to receive full tax benefits. Previously, those credits were locked in through twenty thirty-two. Guidry says his company had planned an additional one point two million dollars of investments in their Pensacola plant this year. Now those investments are in question. The company supplies components directly to GE Vernova, whose nearby plant assembles complete nacelles for wind energy projects across the country. Guidry urges policymakers to view wind energy as key to U.S. manufacturing and energy independence. He warns that without reliable federal support, the United States could lose ground to China in fast-growing industries that depend on abundant, low-cost electricity. New York State has put the brakes on a major offshore wind project. The New York State Public Service Commission terminated its offshore wind transmission planning process. The commission cited stalled federal permitting as the reason. This halts plans to deliver up to eight gigawatts of offshore wind power into New York City by twenty thirty-three. Commission Chair Rory M. Christian says the uncertainty coming out of Washington forced the state to act. He says quote, "This is not the end. We'll move forward once the federal government resumes permitting." The commission cited recent federal actions halting new offshore wind leasing and permitting. Officials say those actions make short-term project execution unfeasible. Existing projects like South Fork Wind, Empire Wind and Sunrise Wind are unaffected and continue to move forward. The commission says it will apply lessons from this process to future planning. It's focusing on affordability, reliability and risk reduction. British oil giant BP is getting out of the wind business in America. The company announced Friday it's selling its entire U.S. onshore wind operation to LS Power. The sale includes wind farms spread across seven states with a combined capacity of one point seven gigawatts. BP did not disclose the sale price. But previous estimates valued the wind business at as much as two billion dollars. The sale is part of BP's twenty billion dollar divestment program announced in February. The company is streamlining its business and pivoting back toward fossil fuels to boost returns to shareholders. William Lin, BP's executive vice-president for gas and low-carbon energy, says green energy still has a role to play in the company's portfolio. But he says BP is no longer the best owner to take the wind business forward. The move comes as BP seeks to refocus on its core oil ...

There are few areas of the practice that I think are quite as “client-facing” as Family Law.This is not to say that clients take a back-seat when it comes to other kinds of legal matters, but it should come as no surprise to anyone - regardless of legal acumen - that when you're dealing with people's money AND family, communication can make or break a case. My guest this week knows this better than most.Larry Praeger is board certified as a Family Law Specialist, and has been a practicing attorney for nearly four and a half decades. His Dallas based practice focuses on family law, with a specialty in mediation, and professional licensing issues. For the past 30 years Larry has gained extensive experience in all aspects of Family Law, as well as preparing and defending mental health professionals in family law matters and helping them prepare for the litigation process. Having started his career as Assistant County Attorney in Bell Texas, he has been an author, speaker, and as of last year, Larry has added Professor to the growing list of titles.We discuss his tips for effective client communication, how the legal landscape has changed, and the many nuances of Family Law.

Send us a textWe're all out here chasing leads and trying to crack the visibility code... But what if the biggest opportunity in your business is already on your books?This episode was sparked by a DM I got asking: “How do I market to my existing clients?” And honestly… what a bloody great question.Because the clients you've already got? They're the ones most likely to buy again, refer you, and sing your praises. (If you're doing it right, that is.)In this episode, I unpack why focusing on your current clients can be one of the most powerful (and underused) strategies in your marketing toolkit.Whether it's onboarding, offboarding or all those moments in between — there's gold in your client journey if you know where to look.Key Topics Covered:Why marketing to existing clients matters more than you thinkHow to map out your client journey and identify key touch pointsOnboarding strategies that build trust and loyaltyOffboarding tactics that lead to referrals and repeat businessHow to create memorable experiences with your unique brand touchWays to automate nurturing post-project or post-purchaseUsing testimonials, case studies and feedback as marketing toolsOne Key Takeaway: It's easier (and cheaper) to keep a client than win a new one. Map the client experience, find the gaps, and make marketing part of every stage of the journey.DOWNLOAD MY CONTENT PLANNER - https://becchappell.com.au/content-planner/Instagram @bec_chappellLinkedIn – Bec Chappell If you're ready to work together, I'm ready to work with you and your team.How to work with me:1.

Single Sign On (SSO) and Multi Factor Authentication (MFA) is critical to secure operations for companies of all sizes. Why is the foundation of cybersecurity still locked behind enterprise licensing? Single Sign-On (SSO) and Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) are essential—not optional—for protecting modern businesses. But today, these critical tools are overpriced, overcomplicated, and reserved for companies that can afford to overpay and have full-time security teams. That's broken. Cubeless is tearing down the barriers. With Cubeless Verify, we're delivering SSO and MFA that anyone can use—no IT army required. No hidden fees. No contracts. No catch. Just enterprise-grade security made simple, and free forever. The gatekeepers had their turn. Now it's yours. Go to https://securityweekly.com/cubelessidv to start using Cubeless Identity today. As AI agents move beyond experiments to becoming critical internal and market-facing enterprise products, secure, scalable identity infrastructure becomes essential to achieve market-readiness. A lack of identity standards tailored specifically for AI agents, is creating a roadblock for developers. Existing infrastructure was not designed with autonomous agents in mind. How will identity standards need to evolve in order to meet the needs of an agent driven ecosystem? https://frontegg.com/product/frontegg-ai This segment is sponsored by Frontegg.

We tell the story of the single greatest business ever created: Google search. From its origins as a Stanford research project called BackRub, Google became the front door to the internet. Today it's an essential service for over half the world, and one that generates more profit than ANY other US company — more than Apple, Microsoft, or Berkshire Hathaway.But it wasn't always so obvious. When Larry and Sergey began working on BackRub in 1996, search was a backwater industry in silicon valley. Existing search companies were eking out a living as vendors to the then-dominant “portals” like AOL and Yahoo. Google's come-from-behind success was the result of three massive step-function leaps forward in algorithms, infrastructure and business model… some invented by Google and some borrowed (and perfected!) by them.Today, things are not so obvious once again for Google. Despite earning more profits than all of its big tech peers, its stock trades at significantly lower multiples — a $1 trillion or more discount to Apple, Microsoft and Nvidia. Investors are concerned that AI will render Google's beautiful business model obsolete, even though Google also basically invented modern AI and continues to lead on many dimensions. This episode begins a multi-part series where we dive into the full history that led us to this point. Tune in and enjoy!Sponsors:Many thanks to our fantastic Summer ‘25 Season partners:J.P.

Existing home sales ticked up slightly in May — but not enough to turn around what's been the slowest May in 16 years. In this episode, Kathy Fettke breaks down the latest data from the National Association of Realtors and explores why more listings aren't translating into more sales. With mortgage rates still hovering near 7% and home prices hitting new highs, affordability remains a key obstacle for today's buyers. Kathy also shares insights from top economists at NAR and Realtor.com, examines the shifting regional trends, and explains what rising inventory could mean for investors in the second half of the year.

The Learning Leader Show with Ryan Hawk Go to www.LearningLeader.com for full show notes This is brought to you by Insight Global. If you need to hire 1 person, hire a team of people, or transform your business through Talent or Technical Services, Insight Global's team of 30,000 people around the world have the hustle and grit to deliver. www.InsightGlobal.com/LearningLeader Larry Connor is an entrepreneur, non-profit activist investor, and adventurist. In business, he is best known for founding The Connor Group, a real estate investment firm, and growing it from $0 to $5 billion in assets. Outside of work, Larry lives an adventurous life. Within a 12 month period Larry did something that had never been done before. He completed 3 dives to the deepest part of the ocean (the Mariana Trench) AND traveled to the International Space Station as an astronaut. In addition to that, Larry is a private pilot and was part of a Le Mans racing team that has won championships. “At The Connor Group, we don't have, and never will have, a mission statement. We have culture. When you have the latter, the former is not necessary.” The culture is built on 5 core values, on which we don't compromise: Do the right thing People count Live the Circle of Success Think long-term, not short-term Relentless pursuit of excellence “We exist, quite simply, to be the best.” “We don't hire for experience. We don't hire for knowledge. We don't care where you went to school. We hire for personality traits. Especially in leadership roles. You have to have the big 6. You have to have all 6. They are: 1. Be able to motivate and inspire others. 2. Self-accountability and ability to hold others accountable in an honest, direct manner. 3. Organizational multi-tasking. The speed of the game is fast. 4. Cultural fit. 5. Grit. Doing the thing that others say are impossible. 6. Work orientation. If you want to come in at 8:30, take a 90-minute lunch, and leave at 4:30, The Connor Group is not for you. “People never outperform their own self-image. So aim high!” “Mediocre people don't like high achievers and high achievers don't like mediocre people.” “By definition, if you want to be exceptional, you have to be different. If you're like everybody else, you're going to end up like everybody else.” In 2008, Larry said, “We simply decided we weren't going to participate in the global recession.” 3 P's - People, Plan, Process People's performances are measured through daily, weekly, and monthly IAMs (Individual Accountability Meetings). Clear expectations and clear management. When I asked him about becoming a billionaire, Larry immediately jumped to the impact he's having on others. “There are far more important standards than money. How well have you treated your associates? Have you made them better people? How much have you done to help other people? Have you made a difference?” All of that is available to all of us regardless of us being a billionaire or not. The company headquarters are next door to a hangar that houses a working model of the “Wright B Flyer” - The Wright Brothers' first production airplane.
