Sponsored by The Great Observatory Of Rathess, we know you'll come and visit, we've seen it in the stars Our Lunar Circle makes their way to Rathess, the First City, where they are welcomed as saviours by the Dragon Kings. The gods have abandoned them despite their many human sacrifices. Rathess will fall tonight, the stars have deemed it so. But the question remains - will it be filled with corpses of the once great lizard race, or will the heroes be able to save them from the upcoming doom? The smell of fall and windchimes fills the air…

“Israel built an ‘AI factory' for war. It unleashed it in Gaza,” laments the Washington Post. “Hospitals Are Reporting More Insurance Denials. Is AI Driving Them?,” reports Newsweek. “AI Raising the Rent? San Francisco Could Be the First City to Ban the Practice,” announces San Francisco's KQED. Within the last few years, and particularly the last few months, we've heard this refrain: AI is the reason for an abuse committed by a corporation, military, or other powerful entity. All of a sudden, the argument goes, the adoption of “faulty” or “overly simplified” AI caused a breakdown of normal operations: spikes in health insurance claims denials, the skyrocketing of consumer prices, the deaths of tens of thousands of civilians. If not for AI, it follows, these industries and militaries, in all likelihood, would implement fairer policies and better killing protocols. We'll admit: the narrative seems compelling at first glance. There are major dangers in incorporating AI into corporate and military procedures. But in these cases, the AI isn't the culprit; the people making the decisions are. UnitedHealthcare would deny claims regardless of the tools at its disposal. Landlords would raise rents with or without automated software. The IDF would kill civilians no matter what technology was, or wasn't, available to do so. So why do we keep hearing that AI is the problem? What's the point of this frame and why is it becoming so common as a responsibility-avoidance framing? On today's episode, we'll dissect the genre of “investigative” reporting on the dangers of AI, examining how it serves as a limited hangout, offering controlled criticism while ultimately shifting responsibility toward faceless technologies and away from powerful people. Later on the show, we'll be speaking with Steven Renderos, Executive Director of MediaJustice, a national racial justice organization that advances the media and technology rights of people of color. He is the creator and co-host, with the great Brandi Collins-Dexter, Bring Receipts, a politics and pop culture podcast and is executive producer of Revolutionary Spirits, a 4-part audio series on the life and martyrdom of Mexican revolutionary leader Francisco Madero.

In as early as 5000 BC the vast and spectacular city of Uruk - replete with towering walls, glistening temples and complex irrigation systems - lay sprawled across the face of Southern Mesopotamia. Not only is Uruk the oldest city in the world, but it is arguably one of the most consequential, having facilitated one of the great turning points of human civilisation. Here, in this mysterious metropolis lay the origins of urbanisation, making Uruk the predecessor and antecedent of every modern city today. It was the cradle of formidable trading networks, sophisticated craftsmanship, agricultural prosperity, the earliest examples of writing, and even home to the very first person in human history to be named. Yet, by 700 AD this once great wonder of the ancient world had been abandoned, leaving nothing behind but haunting ruins and two burning questions: firstly, how did this marvel of urbanisation come to exist, and secondly, what led to its ruin? Was it colonisation, climate change, or conquest…? Join Tom and Dominic as they discuss Uruk, the first city in the whole of world history and the mother of modern urbanisation, revealing the remarkable tale of its discovery, its mysterious origins, and equally enigmatic decline. _______ Twitter: @TheRestHistory @holland_tom @dcsandbrook Producer: Theo Young-Smith Assistant Producer: Tabby Syrett Executive Producers: Jack Davenport + Tony Pastor Learn more about your ad choices.

Our Fall sermon sermon series "The Good Life in Babylon" will walk through the idea of "the City" in the Biblical imagination. These nine teachings will take us from Genesis to Revelation and offer us plenty to chew on as we seek to live faithfully in these strange times. "The First City" tells the story of Cain, who murders his brother and is banished from his homeland. It is an epic myth that lays at the foundation of the Biblical story, and one that offers us a powerful pattern through which we can understand the City in it's many manifestations. We hope you'll listen along to all nine sermons, and find yourself inspired to live a good life in your own place.
"It's just so close to my house, how can you not feel that sort of pain?" This morning, continued coverage of Ketchikan's weekend landslide, as residents of Alaska's First City express their shock and grief over Sunday's natural disaster.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
This weekend takes us ABOVE the mitten, as we travel across the Mighty Mac and head to one of our favorite places in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, Sault Ste Marie."Where Michigan history was born" is an apt tagline for this city that resides along the St. Mary's River, as it was founded way back in 1668 by one of Michigan's favorite explorers, Fr. Jacques Marquette. Today, the "Soo" is best known for their famous locks, which transport some of the biggest freighters in all the land between Lake Superior and Lake Huron.Our good friend Linda Hoath from the Sault Ste Marie Visitor's Bureau kicks off the show, and as one of our regular guests, you know we'll have a great time. Linda shares a little about what makes this community so special, she is a life-long resident, and a true advocate for all that this area has to offer. Linda also gives us an update on the incredibly large construction project that is underway, as they transform two of the older, smaller locks into one gigantic one that can handle larger boats. It's quite an engineering marvel.To get a great view of this project, we recommend a trip to the top, 210 feet up in the air, at the Tower of History. We stopped by for the very first time and while we were very impressed by that panoramic view, we were even more impressed with the curator, Paul Sabourin. Sometimes you get very lucky and walk into an interview and strike absolute gold, which is exactly what happened when we met Paul. A passionate storyteller, this man regaled us with stories in three languages: English, French and Ojibway. Now that I'm thinking about it, he might have also told a joke in German at one point. Head to the Tower to learn more about the Native Americans in this area and the settlers that came later, meet Mr. Paul himself and check out that absolutely incredible view.In order to see the locks in action, you just have to do a boat tour, and our friends at the Original Soo Locks Boat Tours are some of the best. Celebrating 90 years of being on the water, the Original Tours are open every day of the summer. Shiela Marchand joins us, she is currently the business manager for the company, but she started off at the ticket counter when she was in college. Best part of her job is giving tours, she loves that they do live narration on each and every tour, so you can ask all the important questions you have about the locks. The Original Soo tour is a must do when in da Soo.Finally, we catch up with our good friends Ken and Wilda Hopper, who own the uber-popular Bird's Eye Outfitters.If an adventure is what you are looking for in the Soo, Bird's Eye is where you want to go. They can help you plan a mountain bike trip, a fantastic hike, a paddling adventure, or even a trip in a kayak right through the locks. These guys, and girls, are absolute experts, so they'll make sure you have not just the right gear and equipment, but also that you'll have a great time. This is also THE spot for coffee and a bit of nosh in the morning, or for a beer and a sandwich at lunch. Always bustling, Bird's Eye is one of our favorite spots to stop in the Soo.Affiliates:*8 a.m. Saturdays on WBRN - 1460 AM and 107.7 FM in Big Rapids*8 a.m. Saturdays on Kalamazoo Talk Radio 1360 WKMI*8 a.m. Saturdays on WILS-1320 AM in Lansing* 9 a.m. Saturdays on 92.1 Grand Haven's Favorite, WGHN-FM*10 a.m. Saturdays 95.3 WBCK-FM in Battle Creek*10 a.m. Saturdays on News/Talk/Sports 94.9 WSJM in Benton Harbor*4 p.m. Saturdays on WIOS "The Bay's Best!" - 1480 AM & 106.9 FM in Tawas / East Tawas*7 a.m. Sundays on the following Black Diamond Broadcasting stations:-WCFX - CFX Today's Hits (95.3) in Mt.

Learn a little about out me.
Near the beginning of the story of the Bible, a man named Cain becomes jealous of his brother, who is getting God's favor. He is warned to keep his anger in check, but he caves and murders his brother. As a result, Cain is sent into the wilderness. And there, he builds the first city in the story of the Bible. What is the story of cities in the Bible? The Bible opens in a garden and ends with a garden in a city. What's that all about? We will explore the stories of several great cities in the Bible and learn what they teach us about God and His plan for humanity.

Join Shaner and Bob as they discuss Poverty Point in northeastern Louisiana. Many archaeologists and scientists consider it as North America's First City. It lies 15 miles west of the Mississippi River. At 1500 BCE, everywhere else in North America had small villages of about 100 residents, however, Poverty Point had between 4000 and 5000 residents. This was unprecedented at time. To check out maps of the site, Maps and Images of Poverty Point (shakinshaner.com)

We have two guests today: Tameryn Campbell, President and CEO at The Overlook. Our second guest is Lynne Corner, Deputy Director at the UK National Innovation Centre for Ageing (NICA). We learn about the concept of NICA's Cities of Longevity, primarily that the communities actively support all ages, healthier lifestyles for all, as well as the programs, experiences, and public policy that fosters aging well. NICA has implemented these cities in seven countries and the Overlook is the 1st in the U.S. The Overlook was selected as the City of Longevity site because of its rich, 100-year history providing a continuum of care and services for Massachusetts residents and their families. This is a very worthwhile, educational conversation that can serve as a springboard for other communities seeking this designation. Mini Bios Professor Lynne Corner is Deputy Director at the UK National Innovation Centre for Ageing (NICA) and Director of VOICE. VOICE is an international community established to harness the immense experience, skills and insights of the public, of all ages and backgrounds, especially including older people.

Lynne has a particular interest in horizon scanning for innovation, in lifelong learning and cross generational exchange, and the use of artificial intelligence and data. NCIA and VOICE work with businesses from all sectors to help develop their strategies for capitalizing on the immense commercial opportunities for growth from global population ageing. She is also a Trustee of the Lewy Body Dementia Society. Tameryn Campbell brings more than 25 years of experience and a proven track record of success in the senior living and aging services industry. Since 2014, Ms. Campbell has worked in a strategic and consultative role, as the President & CEO of Masonic Health System of Massachusetts.

Is crime creating our food deserts or is it a deeper challenge of community disinvestment? Either way, Mayor Brandon Johnson seems ready to tackle these issues head-on. Brace yourself for a thought-provoking episode where we take a hard look at Chicago's struggle with food deserts and how it's affecting historically underserved communities. We critically assess Mayor Johnson's bold initiative to establish a municipally owned grocery store and explore whether it can truly address the pervasive issues of food equity and accessibility. As we delve into the economic implications, prepare to be challenged as we push the boundaries of the conventional thinking on community investment.Our conversation takes a deep dive into the harrowing effects of community disinvestment and explores innovative solutions to these pressing issues. We discuss the Economic Security Project's mission to build economic power for all Americans and how this partnership with the mayor's office could prove instrumental in repairing past harms and promoting food equity. A daring venture indeed, but what about the sustainability of this taxpayer-funded project amidst ongoing theft and crime? We don't shy away from asking the hard-hitting questions. So, get ready to engage with the complexities of Chicago's food desert crisis and the potential solutions at hand.Support the show

For thousands of years and hundreds of generations, the Ohlone people have lived on the land that is now known as the East Bay. They were forcibly removed from their land with the arrival of Europeans beginning in the 18th Century. To begin to address the historic harms of the city's founding, Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf and tribal Chairperson Corrina Gould started a conversation in 2018 that has grown into a partnership between the City of Oakland and the Sogorea Te' Land Trust. With final city council approval in November, the trust will be given the rights to a section of Joaquin Miller park known as Sequoia Point, and Oakland will become the first city in California to use municipal property as reparations for land stolen from Native American territories. On this Indigenous Peoples day, we'll talk to Corrina Gould and Mayor Schaaf about what this means for the Native community in the Bay and how it can serve as precedent for other cities.

A thorough investigation of how Jane Jacobs's ideas about the life and economy of great cities grew from her home city, Scranton Jane Jacobs's First City vividly reveals how this influential thinker and writer's classic works germinated in the once vibrant, mid-size city of Scranton, Pennsylvania, where Jane spent her initial eighteen years. In the 1920s and 1930s, Scranton was a place of enormous diversity and opportunity. Small businesses of all kinds abounded and flourished, quality public education was available to and supported by all, and even recent immigrants could save enough to buy a house. Opposing political parties joined forces to tackle problems, and citizens worked together for the public good. Through interviews with contemporary Scrantonians and research of historic newspapers, city directories, and vital records, author Glenna Lang has uncovered Scranton as young Jane experienced it and shows us the lasting impact of her growing up in this thriving and accessible environment. Readers can follow the development of Jane's acute observational abilities from childhood through her passion in early adulthood to understand and write about what she saw. Reflecting Jane's belief in trusting one's own direct observation above all, this volume has been richly illustrated with historic and modern color images that help bring alive a lost Scranton. The book demonstrates why, at the end of Jacobs's life, her thoughts and conversations increasingly returned to Scranton and the potential for cohesion and inclusiveness in all cities. Author Glenna Lang's previous work about Jane Jacobs—Genius of Common Sense: The Story of Jane Jacobs and “The Death and Life of Great American Cities”—aimed to inspire young adults but appealed to all ages in the general public and at universities. It was chosen as a 2009 Notable Book by both the New York Times and Smithsonian Magazine. As an illustrator, she produced four classic poems as picture books for children with David R. Godine, Publisher. Lang wrote and illustrated Looking Out for Sarah, about a day in the life of a seeing-eye dog, which won the American Library Association's Schneider Family Award. Although she grew up mainly in New York City, she has lived for many years in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and teaches at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, now part of Tufts University. She has loved spending time in Scranton with her husband, Alexander von Hoffman, and their dog, Easy.
