Jennifer Sey spent over 20 years at iconic clothing brand Levi's, rising from Chief Marketing Officer to Brand President. But when she fought against school closures during the COVID-19 pandemic, she says the CEO told her “there's just not a path for you here.” She resigned and was reportedly offered a $1 million exit package – presumably to buy her silence with an NDA – but turned it down so she could continue fighting for children's education. Now, three years later, the New York Times has confirmed Jennifer Sey's fears: the “startling evidence on learning loss is in” and pandemic school closures were a disaster for American children. “More than 3 years too late, the New York Times has now given permission to acknowledge what was obvious from the beginning,” writes Jennifer Sey. “But if you dared to say so in 2020, or 2021, or even 2022, you were smeared with all sorts of career-ending ad hominem attacks.” Jennifer Sey is an author, filmmaker, business executive and retired artistic gymnast. Sey began working at Levi Strauss & Co. in 1999, rising to Chief Marketing Officer and then Global Brand President. In January 2022, she was asked to resign because of her public opposition to the extended closure of San Francisco's public schools. Previously, Jennifer Sey was the 1986 USA Gymnastics National Champion, and a 7-time member of the U.S. Women's National Team.

Most Americans (and many Canadians!) tend to view the political climate in Canada as hopeless, being run indirectly by LGBT activists, leftist public officials, neo-Marxist advisors, and most of it aided and abetted by a very liberal media establishment. Even if this hyperbole were true, there are some people with conservative principles willing to step into the breach and run for office. My guest this week is one of them. Tanya Granic Allen is a wife, mother, professional communicator, parental rights advocate—and a practicing Catholic. In 2018, despite rising popularity among Ontario voters, she was removed (illegally?) by Premier Doug Ford as a candidate for the Progressive Conservative Party leadership. That's a longer side-bar story, but in this interview, she talks about “social conservative” values and how they shape voters' decisions as much as economic or other factors. Her presidency of PAFE (Parents As First Educators) put pro-family, anti-sex education concerns in the public's mind, which is a rare set of priorities in a Canadian politician. (Even privately pro-life ones are generally chicken to talk about it.) But this unabashedly pro-life Catholic leader is a sign of great hope for a country under the spell of rabid secularism for too long. In this episode you will learn The explicitly Christian roots of Canada, as seen in Coats of Arms, and the founding documents of the country How Quebec is a sign of what happens when faith is taken for granted, and then widely rejected in favor of worship of the state, er province Why parents' rights have now taken a front-and-center place in the public debate over the future Why the Church calls Catholics to enter public service as elected officers How you can recognize politics as a dirty game, yet not adopt its corrupt assumptions and traditions Why Tanya Granic Allen sees signs of great hope for the future of Canada, with Muslims, Christians, and unbelievers holding to the same basic ideals for an open and democratic Canada Resources mentioned in this episode “I've been slandered. It's time to set the facts straight” article in The National Post by Tanya Granic Allen Under Mary's Mantle: Our Lady's Love for Canada by Father Emile-Marie Brière Sit Down TV debate featuring Tanya Granic Allen (what happened to Doug Ford's head?) and other Progressive Conservative Party candidates

A top World Health Organization public health official is adding nuance to the agency's call for more transparency from China, which is coping with a crippling COVID-19 outbreak since it ended its zero-COVID policy last month. Maria Van Kerkhove, Ph.D., WHO Technical Lead for COVID-19 Response, tells “Conversations on Health Care” that “We really need better understanding on the burden and the hospitalizations and we need more information on the sequences…they have detected known sub-variances…but we need those sequences to be shared publicly. We want China to work with us to really determine within those sublineages…is there anything else within those sequences that's different. And we need a global community to look at that. And work directly with us to do a full risk assessment. “Right now they're going through a massive wave of Omicron. This virus, as transmissible as it is, is passing through the population. They are sharing information. It's just not enough. It's just not as detailed as we'd like.” Van Kerkhove joins hosts Mark Masselli and Margaret Flinter to share her insights.

U.S. school kids lost two decades of reading and math progress, largely because of COVID-induced remote classes, according to the National Center for Education Statistics. Around 80% of high schoolers get fewer than eight hours of sleep per night, and research shows they need more to maintain good mental health. A new California law mandating later school start times might help. Critics review the latest film releases: “Honk For Jesus. Save Your Soul,” “Burial,” “The Invitation,” and “Gigi & Nate.” At the U.S. Open, Serena Williams, who's on the brink of retirement, beat the odds against rising star Anett Kontaveit, who's ranked No. 2 in the world.

As the Senate prepares to leave town for a two-week break, a bipartisan deal for $10 billion in new COVID money is on hold thanks to a fight over immigration. The BIden administration announced plans to lift a Trump-era restriction called Title 42. It allowed the U.S. to block migrants from entering the country before they have the chance to make an asylum claim. Republicans and some conservative Democrats want to see the rule reinstated.And new sanctions have been implemented against Russia by the U.S. and its allies after the discovery of mass graves following the withdrawal of Russian troops near Kyiv. But the most significant source of Russian money, fossil fuel sales to Europe, continues more or less unscathed — raising the question of what, if anything, would lead fuel purchases to be halted.This episode: White House correspondent Tamara Keith, congressional correspondent Susan Davis, national political correspondent Mara Liasson, and internation correspondent Jackie Northam.Connect:Email the show at nprpolitics@npr.orgJoin the NPR Politics Podcast Facebook Group.Subscribe to the NPR Politics Newsletter.Find and support your local public radio station.

Would you like to help Scientists Fight COVID-19 with your Smartphones and Computers, from the Comfort of Your Home? Well, volunteers are joining IBM's World Community Grid, a free,volunteer-driven resource to help scientists; the program crowdsources the unused power of volunteers' computers to perform virtual experiments.Ms. Juan Hindo is the Corporate Social Responsibility Manager, for IBMThe coronavirus pandemic has reminded us all about the power and importance of helping each other. For many people, there seems to be little that they can do to help scientists find medical treatments for coronavirus, or they might be unsure how to get involved in the fight against COVID-19.Well, that's just changed. Volunteers are now banding together to help scientists seek drug candidates that might help treat COVID-19. The World Community Grid is a project hosted by IBM, where anyone with internet access can now help scientists from the comfort of their own home–no medical degree, time, or money, required.How does the World Community Grid work? World Community Grid is a free, volunteer-driven resource that crowdsources the surplus power of volunteers' otherwise idle computers, using it to perform virtual experiments. Volunteers download a free and safe app that automatically performs virtual scientific experiments on their computers. When volunteers' devices are otherwise idle, the app crunches numbers for scientists, who are eager for every bit of processing power to run their simulations. Volunteers anywhere in the world can participate by downloading the app onto their desktop, laptop, or Android smartphone. It uses the IBM cloud to automatically distribute and collect the computational assignments on volunteers' computers.The more citizens who volunteer to download the app, the more computer simulations performed, and the more compounds that can be screened in less time. To date, through the WorldCommunity Grid, more than 770,000 people and 450 organizations have contributed the equivalent of nearly two-million years of computing power to support 30 research projects, including studies on cancer, Ebola, Zika, influenza, muscular dystrophy, malaria, and AIDS, as well as projects for developing better water filtration systems and solar energy collection.Results from World Community Grid projects are shared with the world, and so far more than 50 peer-reviewed scientific articles have been published. Scientists at Japan's Chiba Cancer Center Research Institute and Chiba University used the World Community Grid to identify seven promising drug candidates to treat neuroblastoma, one of the most common and dangerous forms of childhood cancer.The World Community Grid projection coronavirus, called"Open Pandemics-COVID19,” was devised by Scripps Research, the largest private, non-profit biomedical research organization in the United States. The project can pivot to screen compounds for future pandemics.For more information please visit: WorldCommunityGrid.org
