For many of us, a formal education about sexuality begins during puberty and only really gets going during adolescence. But in reality, exploration of our bodies and relationships can begin long before that — as early as our first years of life. So how can we set kids up to feel empowered, safe and free from shame when they are older? A sexuality educator shares advice for parents and caregivers on navigating some of the common challenges that come up as kids are learning about their bodies and relationships. Plus, a writer breaks down her childhood to determine where shame and desire became intertwined.Meet the guests:- Nadine Thornhill has a doctorate from the Institute for Advanced Study of Human Sexuality and is one of the hosts of the web series “Every Body Curious”- Tyler Wetherall is the author of "Amphibian"Review the podcast on your preferred platformFollow Embodied on Instagram Leave a message for Embodied

Forgiveness is a unique concept in Judaism and Christianity, yet Jews and Christians approach forgiveness differently. Both offer profound teachings on mercy, repentance, and reconciliation—rooted in Torah, the Prophets, the Gospels, and centuries of interpretation. How do Jewish concepts like teshuvah and divine pardon relate to Christian ideas of grace and atonement? How do we approach forgiveness from our respective traditions on an individual basis, and in relation to God? Where do the traditions converge, and where do they diverge in theology and in practice? As we enter the High Holiday season, a cornerstone of which is about forgiveness, whether you bring personal insight, scholarly interest, or quiet curiosity, please a thoughtful conversation exploring Jewish and Christian perspectives on forgiveness.

Richard Lim, historian at Prager U. and host of the This American President podcast joins the guys to discuss his recent book on George Washington's legacy, Refusing a Crown. Breaking through mainstream secularist assumptions, Lim argues that Washington's greatness is best understood in the context of his Christian faith. Meanwhile, the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE) has challenged the Trump Administration's attempt to deport Mahmoud Khalil and Rümeysa Özturk for anti-American speech. FIRE argues the constitution protects resident aliens, and even that immigrant speech cannot be scrutinized in the vetting process.

This week on The Audit Podcast, Rania Bijlani, Founder & CEO of RB Advisory & Consultancy, joins the show to discuss how internal audit leaders can prepare for the future of the profession, embrace AI without losing human judgment, and build stronger partnerships across the organization. Rania explains why auditors need to move beyond simply using AI tools and start thinking about how they can audit AI, govern its use, and become part of the strategic conversation around AI. She breaks down the three biggest risks she sees for auditors: failing to learn AI, using it only superficially, and becoming overly reliant on it. She also explains why discernment and judgment will become even more important as AI takes on more of the work. Rania also shares her approach to helping internal audit teams become AI-ready, emphasizing that training alone isn't enough. Teams need a strategy, an actionable plan, and implementation support to turn what they learn into meaningful change. The conversation then shifts to one of Rania's biggest areas of expertise: building trust, influence, and real partnerships within the organization. She breaks down the foundation of trust, why credibility and shared purpose matter, and how auditors can move beyond policing the business to becoming true partners. Finally, Rania shares the biggest lesson she's learned from hosting her own podcast, Impact Legacy with Rania: across industries and leadership roles, it is the human skills — authenticity, self-belief, strategic thinking, emotional intelligence, and relationship-building — that truly make leaders stand out.

Cop Down, Shot on Drug Arrest by a Sniper, The True Story. A planned drug arrest in Mississippi suddenly erupted into a deadly ambush. Gunfire rained down from a sniper positioned on a hill. One police officer was struck three times and barely survived. An armed drug dealer was also shot. For Merle Temple and his fellow narcotics officers, it became a brutal reminder of the risk and danger they faced during America's first war on drugs. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin. It was the late 1970s, a time before the bulletproof vest became standard equipment in police work. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Temple, a former captain with the Mississippi Bureau of Narcotics, shares his remarkable story on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast. His experiences later inspired multiple novels filled with crime, corruption, faith, betrayal, and survival. The Podcast is available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, iHeartradio and most major podcast platforms. #LawEnforcementTalk #Free #Podcast #Radio A Drug Arrest Turned Into a Sniper Ambush Temple and his team were preparing for a buy-bust operation targeting suspected drug dealers. They knew the arrest would be dangerous, but they had no idea that the suspects had allegedly positioned a sniper above them. Just before leaving for the operation, Temple experienced an overwhelming feeling that he needed to turn around. “God scared me to death,” Temple said. “He commanded me to go back and get the bulletproof vests.” Temple initially resisted the warning. Body armor was not commonly worn by police officers in 1976, and his unit had only two vests available. Still, he returned and retrieved them. That decision may have saved lives. “They let it get away from them,” Temple recalled about the attempted arrest. “The drug dealers had a sniper with a rifle up on a hill, and he rained fire down on us. It was a terrible day.” The scene exploded into chaos. A police officer was shot three times and came close to death. A suspect was also struck by gunfire. The heavy protective vests Temple had gone back to retrieve suddenly became critically important. Cop Down, Shot on Drug Arrest by a Sniper, The True Story. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, is available on Apple, Spotify, YouTube, and other major podcast platforms. The interview is also featured across Facebook and Instagram. It was a real-life Cop Down, Shot on Drug Arrest by a Sniper story, one that revealed the extraordinary dangers faced by early narcotics officers. Before Bulletproof Vests Became Standard Police Equipment Modern officers routinely recognize the importance of body armor, but police equipment was much different during the 1970s. Temple's unit had only two protective vests, and wearing one was far from commonplace. Narcotics agents frequently worked alone, without the tactical teams, communications technology, surveillance equipment, and immediate backup available to many officers today. “In those days, the unit was small,” Temple said. “There really wasn't any backup, you were on your own.” That isolation increased the risk of every undercover meeting, drug purchase, vehicle stop, and arrest. Agents could find themselves surrounded by armed suspects miles away from help. Temple repeatedly faced that reality during his career. From FBI Fingerprint Technician to Undercover Drug Agent Before entering narcotics enforcement, Temple worked as a fingerprint technician for the FBI. He later served as a deputy sheriff and became one of Mississippi's earliest designated narcotics officers. Temple attended Ole Miss and finished school around the time President Richard Nixon was launching the national “war on drugs.” He joined the newly formed Mississippi Bureau of Narcotics and spent much of his career working undercover. “It was exciting,” he said. “I didn't know what I was getting into.” Temple eventually became an area commander and captain with the agency. His assignments placed him inside a violent criminal world where exposure could mean kidnapping, torture, or death. A 1989 profile in The Augusta Chronicle reported that Temple had been held hostage by two suspects while working undercover. It also described his survival of a sniper ambush carried out by cocaine dealers. Cop Down, Shot on Drug Arrest by a Sniper, The True Story. The episode is available across major platforms including their website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, with highlights shared across their Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn profiles. His life often seemed more unbelievable than anything an author could invent. A Gun to His Head and a Shotgun Against His Stomach One of Temple's most terrifying undercover encounters occurred near Tylertown, Mississippi. While posing as part of the drug world, he allowed two suspected dealers to get into his vehicle. They directed him into a remote area and eventually took him to a small shack built on stilts. There, his cover, and his life, were placed in immediate danger. One man reportedly pressed a pistol against Temple's head. The other held a shotgun against his stomach. “Images of my life really did flash past my mind,” Temple said. He knew he could be killed at any moment. There was no nearby team waiting to rescue him and no guarantee that anyone would find him if he disappeared. Temple later acknowledged that youth sometimes made him feel invulnerable. He took chances and made mistakes that, by his own admission, he should not have survived. Drug Dealers Allegedly Planned Where to Bury Him The threats against Temple did not end with undercover operations. According to Temple, drug dealers once discussed where they would bury his body after hired killers were supposed to murder him. His career exposed him to criminals who were willing to do far more than threaten an officer to protect their operations. Cop Down, Shot on Drug Arrest by a Sniper, The True Story. The Podcast is available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, iHeartradio and most major podcast platforms. Yet Temple continued his work. “Work was a crusade in those days,” he said. That crusade eventually collided with another powerful force: politics. Temple said corrupt political figures attempted to weaken the narcotics agency and install their own person inside the organization. The controversy was leaked to the Clarion-Ledger and became headline news. He also claimed that witness tampering occurred and that political figures were searching for a way to frame him. “It was politics that caused me to leave,” Temple said. “There were some corrupt politicians who wanted to clip our wings.” When Truth Became the Foundation for Fiction After leaving law enforcement, Temple transformed his experiences into the Michael Parker book series. Although the novels are presented as fiction, they draw heavily from Temple's career as a deputy sheriff, undercover agent, narcotics captain, corporate manager, political campaign chairman, and Christian ministry founder. Merle Temple is the author of: Deputy: Once Upon a Time in Mississippi Blood on the Ground A Ghostly Shade of Pale A Rented World The Redeemed: A Leap of Faith Resurrection: Home Before Dark The stories explore violent crime, political corruption, moral conflict, redemption, and the intersection of government, business, and organized criminal activity. Some of Temple's real experiences were reportedly so shocking that a district attorney told him audiences would consider them too unbelievable for a movie. Temple's response was simple: they actually happened. Cop Down, Shot on Drug Arrest by a Sniper, The True Story. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast continues bringing listeners real conversations from the front lines of crime, policing, trauma, survival, and healing. His life gives new meaning to the expression, “Truth is stranger than fiction.” “A Ghostly Shade of Pale” and the Michael Parker Series Among Temple's most recognized works is the book A Ghostly Shade of Pale. According to Temple's biography, it became the all-time bestselling novel at the Barnes & Noble store in Tupelo, Mississippi. His books have been used in middle school, high school, and college classrooms. They have also reached readers in church libraries, shelters, and prisons across numerous states. Temple signed books for members of the casts of Criminal Minds and Major Crimes in Hollywood. His work was also optioned for a proposed television series based on his extraordinary life. His story extends far beyond undercover police work. Temple founded a highly successful Christian ministry inside the Federal Bureau of Prisons. He served as Mississippi's state criminal justice chairman for Ronald Reagan and later became Georgia chairman of the Reagan Legacy Project. The Officer, Author, and Survivor Behind the Story Merle Temple's journey is filled with moments that sound as though they were created for a crime thriller: undercover drug buys, hostage situations, assassination plots, sniper fire, political corruption, and unexpected acts of faith. But behind those stories was a real officer confronting real danger. The sniper ambush remains one of the most powerful chapters of his life. His last-minute decision to retrieve two bulletproof vests demonstrated how one choice can separate survival from tragedy. Cop Down, Shot on Drug Arrest by a Sniper, The True Story. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium, Blogspot and Linkedin. The officer struck three times survived, but the attack exposed the enormous risk Temple and his team faced while confronting armed drug organizations with limited manpower and equipment. Temple's experiences eventually gave him the material, and the mission, to become an author.

The Miami Dolphins' 53-man roster is set — at least for now — and Kim Bokamper and Joe Rose are taking their first hard look at the team Miami will bring into the regular season.With the opener against the Raiders approaching, Bo & Joe break down a dramatically reshaped roster loaded with young players who are about to experience NFL football at an entirely different level. From three rookie receivers expected to contribute immediately to an inexperienced secondary and major questions about where the Dolphins' pass rush will come from, there is plenty Miami still needs to figure out.But the biggest question may be Malik Willis.For the first time, Willis enters a season as the guy. Bo & Joe discuss what they need to see from Miami's quarterback, whether the Dolphins have surrounded him with enough weapons to properly evaluate him, and why determining whether Willis can become the franchise quarterback could be more important than Miami's final win-loss record this season.Plus, Bo & Joe discuss the Dolphins' tight ends, the importance of getting this young roster meaningful experience, and somehow turn a visit to Jason Taylor's Foundation offices into a chance for one viewer to win a ping-pong table from JT's old celebrity tournament. Yes, seriously.The preseason evaluations are over.

In this episode of Occupied Thoughts, FMEP Fellow Peter Beinart speaks with researcher Ben Lorber about the "bad-faith disinfo[rmation] attacks" against Hasan Piker and others, which cast critiques of Israel as antisemitism. Peter and Ben look at the competition between the Left and the Right to explain Israel's behavior and define anti-Israel politics, with the Left offering a structural critique of Israel, naming imperialism and ethnonationalism, versus the Right's focus on what they identify as essentialist faults with Jewish character and identity. Ben and Peter also discuss how bad-faith accusations of antisemitism make it difficult to hold productive conversations about antisemitism, Israeli policy, and other political issues, how to think about "calling someone out" vs. "calling them in" over political disagreements; and how to think about political strategies for both short-term and long-term goals.  Ben Lorber is a writer, researcher and movement strategist. He works as Senior Research Analyst at Political Research Associates, a think tank that works to understand and counter authoritarian movements, where he focuses on antisemitism and white Christian nationalism. He is co-author of Safety Through Solidarity: A Radical Guide to Fighting Antisemitism (Melville House, 2024). Peter Beinart is a Non-Resident Fellow at the Foundation for Middle East Peace. He is also a Professor of Journalism and Political Science at the City University of New York, a Contributing opinion writer at the New York Times, an Editor-at-Large at Jewish Currents, and an MSNOW Political Commentator. His newest book (published 2025) is Being Jewish After the Destruction of Gaza: A Reckoning. He publishes regularly on https://peterbeinart.substack.com/. Original music by Jalal Yaquob

Aaron Renn talks with technology and media writer James Poulos about Human Forever — and why the real digital disaster is not a future AI apocalypse, but a transformation that has already happened.Poulos argues that the print-and-television age ran on imagination (“if you can dream it, you can do it”). Computational technology flipped that. Machine memory now dominates: infinite archives, permanent records, surveillance, and a culture of searching and scrolling instead of dreaming. That shift, he says, is why so much of American life feels like fallout — and why older, memory-based forms of life, including traditional Christianity, are suddenly making sense again.They discuss Marshall McLuhan's “flip,” the return of the medieval, literacy's collapse, accelerationism and transhumanism, why Christianity and America are the two things Poulos thinks can still stand, father-to-son rites of passage, practical politics around data centers, and why he published the book on the Bitcoin blockchain.James Poulos is the author of Human Forever and the forthcoming Golden Age Problems. He is editorial director of Frontier at Blaze Media and a non-resident senior fellow at the Foundation for American Innovation.CHAPTERS:(0:00 Introduction)(1:20 The digital catastrophe already happened)(9:07 From imagination to memory)(12:08 Why the digital age retrieves the medieval)(15:24 Ancient liturgy and the search for spiritual authority)(24:18 Accelerationism, cyborgs, and running from responsibility)(32:31 What if AI outdoes every human faculty?)(41:39 Why Christianity and America still stand)(47:39 How to remain human: space, politics, and attainable goals)(54:38 Father-to-son rites of passage)(58:28 Why the book is on the Bitcoin blockchain)JAMES POULOS LINKS:

Age verification is reshaping how people access the internet. An ever-growing patchwork of laws can now require government IDs, facial age estimation, or behavioral inference before you can enter digital spaces. Discord, app stores, social media platforms, and AI chatbots are all being pulled into these requirements. Almost always, these measures are enacted under the banner of protecting children. However, beneath that goal lies a set of hard questions about privacy, anonymity, security, and the line between what a private platform may choose to do and what a government may compel. John Coleman is a legislative counsel at the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression, or FIRE, where he focuses on artificial intelligence and free speech policy. In this episode, John joins Kevin Ball to discuss the different methods of age verification and their privacy implications, the long constitutional history of anonymous speech, how recent court decisions are reshaping what governments can require, the data breach and surveillance risks these mandates create, and what engineers and companies should keep in mind when they are asked to build these systems.Sponsorship inquiries:sponsor@softwareengineeringdaily.com The post The Death of Online Anonymity appeared first on Software Engineering Daily.

What can cold-case investigations teach us about human nature, identity, purpose, and truth? Michael Easley sits down with J. Warner Wallace, former cold-case homicide detective and Christian apologist, to discuss what years of investigating murder have taught him about humanity—and how those observations point back to Scripture. Wallace explains why people are fascinated by true crime, the three root motivations behind crime, and why proximity matters when investigating a murder. The conversation then moves into a much deeper question: Who are we when our careers, accomplishments, relationships, or abilities change? Wallace argues that identity is one of humanity's greatest struggles and that Christians need an identity that does not shift.

Why Leading with Honesty, Lying, and Anxiety Are All Connected Leading with honesty starts with the courage to stand in truth, even when it is uncomfortable. The Hidden Roots of Dishonesty: Where Lying Begins Most people learn to lie very early in life — not out of malice, but out of self-preservation. People-Pleasing as a Form of Dishonesty People-pleasing is one of the most common — and most overlooked — forms of dishonesty. The Shame Cycle That Feeds More Lying Each dishonest act produces internal shame, which, ironically, drives further dishonesty. Anxiety, the Nervous System, and the Need to Lie Lying and anxiety are deeply intertwined. How Living in Fight-or-Flight Fuels Dishonesty Chronic stress keeps us in fight-or-flight mode, where survival instincts override values. Your Body Already Knows the Truth The body registers dishonesty as friction — a tightness in the gut or chest. Standing in Truth: The Practical Path Forward Standing in truth is a practice, not a one-time decision. Step One — Notice What Your Body Is Telling You Before you can change a pattern, you must be able to see it. Step Two — Use the Holy Pause The pause is one of the most powerful tools in any transformation journey. Step Three — Say It and Stand in It Speaking the truth is only half the work. Release the Outcome Leading with honesty does not guarantee that everyone will respond well. How Standing in Truth Transforms Relationships Whether at work or at home, relationships built on half-truths are fragile. Honesty in Marriage and Family Edie Kay shared a deeply personal story about discovering her husband had been emotionally and physically unfaithful. Leading with Honesty in the Workplace Leaders who model vulnerability create psychologically safe teams. The Difference Between Radical Honesty and Harmful Truth Standing in truth does not mean saying everything you think without a filter. Identity, Faith, and the Freedom to Be Yourself At its deepest level, chronic dishonesty is an identity crisis. Self-Knowledge as the Foundation of Truth-Telling You cannot stand in your truth if you do not know what that truth is. The Internal Freedom That Comes from Alignment When what you say matches who you are, something profound shifts internally.

How do you rebuild a life after the justice system takes 16 years from you for a crime you did not commit? Wrongful convictions represent one of the most devastating failures of the criminal justice system. An estimated 1% to 6% of incarcerated Americans are innocent, translating to roughly 20,000 to over 100,000 wrongfully convicted individuals currently serving time in U.S. prisons. According to data compiled by organizations like the Innocence Project and the National Registry of Exonerations, over 3,300 people have been exonerated since 1989, collectively losing more than 27,000 years behind bars. Jeffrey Deskovic knows that reality firsthand. At just 17 years old, Jeffrey was wrongfully convicted of the rape and murder of his high school classmate, Angela Correa. He spent 16 years in prison, losing much of his youth and early adulthood, before DNA evidence finally established his innocence and led to his exoneration. The DNA evidence identified Steven Cunningham as the actual perpetrator. While Jeffrey was incarcerated, Cunningham remained free and later committed another murder—an agonizing reminder that wrongful convictions can create additional victims when the real perpetrator escapes accountability. Jeffrey could have allowed those 16 stolen years to define the rest of his life. Instead, he transformed his experience into a mission. Since his exoneration, he has dedicated himself to preventing wrongful convictions, advocating for criminal justice reform, educating legal and law-enforcement professionals, and fighting to free innocent people still behind bars. He has delivered more than 100 presentations, authored more than 200 articles, participated in hundreds of media interviews, testified before lawmakers, and contributed to conversations surrounding wrongful-conviction reform and the death penalty. He also invested $1.5 million of his own compensation to establish The Deskovic Foundation, an organization dedicated to exonerating the wrongfully convicted and pursuing reforms designed to prevent future miscarriages of justice. Through its work, the Foundation has helped innocent people regain something that can never truly be replaced: their freedom. Jeffrey's pursuit of justice eventually took him somewhere particularly meaningful—the legal profession itself. After earning a B.A. in Behavioral Science and a master's degree from John Jay College of Criminal Justice, he earned his law degree from the Elizabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University, twice making the Dean's List. Today, he is a licensed attorney in New York, giving him another powerful avenue to fight directly for people who maintain their innocence. This week on Let's Have This Conversation, Jeffrey Deskovic joins me for a deeply meaningful conversation about wrongful conviction, redemption, equality, accountability, and what genuine criminal justice reform requires. We explore what happens when the institutions entrusted with delivering justice get it catastrophically wrong, the human consequences of prosecutorial and investigative failures, the reforms necessary to reduce wrongful convictions, and how Jeffrey turned unimaginable injustice into a lifelong commitment to securing justice for others. His story ultimately challenges all of us to consider a fundamental question: If justice is supposed to protect the innocent and hold the guilty accountable, what responsibility do we have to confront the system when it fails to do either?       For more information: https://www.deskovicfoundation.org/ Follow: @TheJeffreyDeskovicFoundation Watch: https://www.primevideo.com/detail/0T652A1QC6N6Y3K8WSIX2VQW2I Learn more about your ad choices.

Jack Johnson joins Sterling Spencer and Cousin Ryan on the Pinch My Salt Podcast for a hilarious, wide-ranging conversation about surfing, music, Hawaii, Kelly Slater, Tom Curren, John John Florence, Willie Nelson, Ben Harper, G. Love, Rob Machado, songwriting, touring, fame and the stories behind some of Jack Johnson's biggest songs. Jack Johnson talks about the real story behind “Banana Pancakes,” “Bubble Toes” and “Rodeo Clowns,” his early music career, opening for Ben Harper, growing up surfing in Hawaii, the North Shore surf scene, and how Kelly Slater helped turn “Rodeo Clowns” into the name of a surfing maneuver. Jack also breaks down Kelly Slater vs. Tom Curren, explains why he believes John John Florence may be the best surfer in the world, and talks Nathan Fletcher, Christian Fletcher, Rob Machado, Pipeline, Sunset Beach, big-wave surfing and the surfers who influenced him. Plus, Jack plays music live in the Pinch My Salt studio and tells the incredible story of playing poker with Willie Nelson. This is Jack Johnson like you probably haven't heard him before. Jack gets into the story of meeting Willie Nelson at a benefit concert in Maui, getting invited back to Willie's house to play poker, and the song that came out of the experience. He talks about forgetting lyrics and hitting wrong chords on stage, why those mistakes can actually make live music better, and how he learned to deal with the pressure of performing in front of huge crowds. Jack also opens up about fame, imposter syndrome, mental health, staying grounded in Hawaii, and why too much attention can start to feel unhealthy. He explains how Ben Harper and G. Love inspired him before he ever knew them personally, and what it was like going from being a fan to opening shows for Ben Harper. We also get into the surprising story behind Jack Johnson's Curious George soundtrack, working on the film with Hans Zimmer, and why making music for an animated kids movie felt like such a strange move within surf culture at the time. Then it gets DEEP into surfing. Kelly Slater vs. Tom Curren. John John Florence. Dane Reynolds. Nathan Fletcher. Christian Fletcher. Rob Machado. Pipeline. Sunset. Margaret River. Surf style vs. progression. What makes someone truly “core.” And Jack's perspective as someone who grew up completely immersed in the North Shore surf world before becoming one of the biggest musicians in the world. Jack also talks about his wife Kim, writing love songs, balancing marriage and success, raising a family, touring, his Surf Film Music project, September Sessions, and the work he and Kim do through the Kōkua Hawaiʻi Foundation and its environmental education programs in Hawaii. And somehow we also try to launch Jack Johnson's new phrases “That's What the Babies Eat” and “Rumpelstiltskin It” into surf culture. This one went places.

In this Federalist Society America 250 series, experts analyze modern legal and policy debates through the lens of the Founding generation. The Founders gave us the tools to answer many contemporary questions; join us as we explore those answers.American lawyers have long been defined by a commitment to represent even the most unpopular clients—a tradition that traces back to the Founding. When John Adams defended the British soldiers after the Boston Massacre, he did so in the face of intense public hostility, underscoring a simple but enduring principle: the right to counsel does not turn on public approval. This webinar revisits that moment to examine the lawyer’s role in an adversarial system—not as an endorsement of a client’s conduct, but as a safeguard of the legal system itself.That principle has been under strain in recent decades. Lawyers representing controversial clients or causes have faced increasing public backlash and, in some cases, professional consequences. Similar pressures surfaced during the Red Scare, when attorneys representing alleged subversives were themselves subject to suspicion. As criticism shifts from clients to the lawyers who represent them, the question becomes harder to ignore: what happens to the legal system when representation itself is treated as suspect? Join our panel as they discuss what the Founding-era commitment to principled representation means for lawyers today.Featuring:William Creeley, Legal Director, The Foundation for Individual Rights in EducationErin E.

Send Rachel a text message.Feeling burned out by healing, self-improvement, or spiritual growth? You may be trying too hard.In this episode of Self Talk, Rachel Astarte explores inner work burnout and the exhaustion that can arise when personal growth becomes another project to manage, master, or perfect. Sometimes the underdeveloped ego that once resisted our growth simply turns healing into another form of striving.Rachel offers a gentler path through the Foundation of Self, exploring why lasting transformation is ultimately experiential rather than intellectual and how awareness, nonjudgment, and gentleness can help us release unnecessary effort. Drawing on the self-inquiry of Sri Ramana Maharshi, listeners are invited to ask, “Who is having this thought?” and shift attention from the mind's activity to Awareness itself.This episode also introduces Rachel's “Magic Therapy Question”—How do I want to feel in this situation?—as a practical tool for recognizing misalignment and reconnecting with the wisdom of the Highest Self.If your inner work feels overwhelming, exhausting, or heavy, this conversation offers a simple reminder: You do not have to earn what you already are. Rest, listen inward, and remember that you are a unique expression of Pure Consciousness—an eternal Self living a fully human life.Listen to discover how to stop striving to become awakened and begin living awake.EPISODE TIMELINE0:00 – Opening Quote & Theme SetupJean Klein on “living stillness” and undoing conditioning; introduction to the episode and the Living Your Foundation of Self series.0:55 – Defining Inner Work BurnoutDescription of burnout as exhaustion from long-term inner work practices and the hidden expectation of “being further along” by now.2:05 – You Are Already Whole (Pure Consciousness)Re-centering on the core teaching: you are already whole, pure consciousness; inner work is about removing what you are not, not becoming “better.”3:05 – What Is Inner Work, Really?Revisit of the foundational definition: inner work as turning inward with awareness, curiosity, non-judgment, and gentleness rather than a self-improvement project.4:00 – The Mind as Tool vs. ObstacleThe mind's need for repetition and effort–reward loops; why this clashes with the non-linear, mysterious nature of genuine inner work.5:00 – How the Ego Co-opts Inner WorkThe underdeveloped ego's fear of obliteration; turning inner work into a “project” with goals and milestones, setting you up for burnout.6:07 – Expectation, Measurement, and FailureThe ego's “measuring stick”: Have I done enough? Found the right teacher? Become ‘better' yet? Why this project must fail from the ego's perspective.7:10 – The Real Source of ExhaustionClarifying that what drains you is not introspection itself, but striving to become a better, future self instead of accepting who you are now.8:05 – Stop Trying: From Mind-Work to Soul-ExperienceInvitation to pause effort, step out of “doing inner work,” and shift from intellectual understanding to direct, experiential being.8:55 – Self-Inquiry Practice (Ramana Maharshi)Guided explanation of asking “Who is having this thought?” and “Who am I?” to move attention from thoughts to pure awareness or “neutral space.”9:55 – The Magic Therapy QuestionIntroduction of “How do I want to feel in this situation?” with real-life examples (partner, boss, parents) and reclaiming emotional choice.10:45 – Meeting Your Inner Guru (Sadguru)Framing the highest Self / inner Guru as innate wisdom that sees beyond fear and conditioning; how all this work returns you to your foundation of Self.11:29 – Returning to the Three PillarsClear recap of the three pillars: awareness, non-judgment, gentleness—and how to use them when you feel burned out or “off track.”12:10 – Applying the Tools in the MomentCombining self-inquiry with the magic question (“How do I want to feel right now?”) to rest in neutrality and non-identification with thoughts.13:00 – You Are Already That PersonReleasing the fantasy of a more spiritual future self; recognizing you are already the healed, spiritual being you're trying to become.13:40 – Final Reminder: Ambassador of SourceClosing reflection: you are a unique iteration of pure consciousness here to experience human life in all its complexity, beauty, difficulty, and wonder; gentle sign-off.Got a question about your self?

Age verification is reshaping how people access the internet. An ever-growing patchwork of laws can now require government IDs, facial age estimation, or behavioral inference before you can enter digital spaces. Discord, app stores, social media platforms, and AI chatbots are all being pulled into these requirements. Almost always, these measures are enacted under the banner of protecting children. However, beneath that goal lies a set of hard questions about privacy, anonymity, security, and the line between what a private platform may choose to do and what a government may compel. John Coleman is a legislative counsel at the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression, or FIRE, where he focuses on artificial intelligence and free speech policy. In this episode, John joins Kevin Ball to discuss the different methods of age verification and their privacy implications, the long constitutional history of anonymous speech, how recent court decisions are reshaping what governments can require, the data breach and surveillance risks these mandates create, and what engineers and companies should keep in mind when they are asked to build these systems.Sponsorship inquiries:sponsor@softwareengineeringdaily.com The post The Death of Online Anonymity appeared first on Software Engineering Daily.

Welcome to Card Foundation Podcast Episode 289.

There is no shortage of discussion about the role of AI in the energy transition. Yet while many talk about the future of intelligent grids, only a handful of industry leaders are delivering solutions at scale.  One of them is Alberto Méndez Rebollo—an executive, investor, and entrepreneur dedicated to accelerating the energy transition. Throughout his career, Alberto has held senior leadership positions at Siemens Gamesa, Vattenfall, XCharge, and other organizations, overseeing multi-million-euro initiatives across renewable energy, power grids, and electric mobility.  Today, as Co-Founder and CEO of Plexigrid, he is leading the development of next-generation technology designed to prepare electricity networks for a rapidly changing energy landscape. Plexigrid, a deep-tech company headquartered in Sweden and Spain, develops intelligent software that helps utilities optimize and digitize electricity distribution networks. At the core of its platform is a real-time digital twin of the distribution grid, enabling operators to monitor capacity, detect anomalies, and make better operational decisions.  The company's AI-powered technology automatically coordinates energy consumption and manages flexible assets such as EV chargers, shifting demand away from peak periods. This allows utilities to alleviate congestion, increase grid resilience, and unlock additional network capacity—without the need for costly and time-consuming infrastructure upgrades.  The market response has been remarkable. Operating on a software-as-a-service (SaaS) model, Plexigrid has expanded its commercial pipeline from €8 million to more than €150 million in just four years, consistently winning competitive tenders against some of the industry's most established players.   Its growing client base includes leading utilities and energy innovators, with notable partnerships such as EDP and Piclo focused on advancing real-time grid orchestration. The company has also raised approximately €15 million across multiple funding rounds, providing a strong foundation for continued growth and innovation.  Beyond the technology, however, this is a story about transformation at warp speed. It is about how critical infrastructure can evolve—not only technically, but culturally—to embrace new technologies and operating models. As electricity networks become increasingly decentralized, digital, and dynamic, organizations like Plexigrid are demonstrating how AI can move from a promising concept to a practical tool that helps utilities adapt, modernize, and thrive in the energy transition.  “Today's show is supported by the BMW Foundation Herbert Quandt. The BMW Foundation unites leaders across sectors to develop solutions that foster an innovative economy and a future-proof society. A key focus is "Energy Transition & Climate Change," where the Foundation drives "International collaboration to accelerate the energy transition." With rising energy demands from AI and data centres, new partnerships, effective collaboration, and the exchange of science-based solutions and strategies are essential.”

Episode 263 of the Transition Drill podcast explores military career transition and rebuilding your identity after service for veterans and first responders navigating the move into civilian life. You'll hear retired Navy Senior Chief Timothy Henderson on leaving behind nearly three decades in uniform, and what it takes to turn military experience into a meaningful next chapter.Tim grew up in Chicago's Cabrini-Green projects surrounded by gangs, drugs, and limited examples of what life could become. After losing both parents young, becoming a father as a teenager, getting into trouble, and nearly losing his direction, a judge pushed him toward a military recruiter. He joined the Navy in 1997.What began as one enlistment became a 27-year career. Tim went from an undesignated sailor to Gunner's Mate, serving aboard ships, in San Diego and Japan, with Naval Special Warfare, in training commands, and ultimately in senior leadership. Along the way, mentors changed how he viewed education, leadership, professional development, and preparing for the day the uniform came off.Tim didn't wait until retirement to think about what came next. He built relationships, developed his network, and lined up civilian work before leaving service. Still, employment didn't eliminate the challenge of separating Tim Henderson from Senior Chief Henderson.Today, he's a civilian department head at Navy Munitions Command while pursuing public speaking, mentoring, process-improvement consulting, and plans for a future business focused on ethical AI. His story shows why transition isn't simply finding another job. It's figuring out who you're becoming next.CONNECT WITH THE PODCAST:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/paulpantani/WEBSITE: https://www.transitiondrillpodcast.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paulpantani/SIGN-UP FOR THE NEWSLETTER:https://transitiondrillpodcast.com/home#aboutQUESTIONS OR COMMENTS:paul@transitiondrillpodcast.comCHAPTERS0:00:00 — Intro: The Decision That Changed Everything0:00:46 — Growing Up in Cabrini-Green0:08:05 — Trouble, Loss, and Losing Direction0:10:51 — Fatherhood at Seventeen0:13:08 — A Judge Offers Another Path0:20:30 — Joining the Navy in 19970:28:44 — Reenlisting Before 9/110:30:43 — Finding His Calling as a Gunner's Mate0:35:13 — Going Home Changed His Perspective0:42:30 — Trouble in the Navy and a Second Chance0:44:34 — Stop Living for Other People0:47:24 — The Leaders Who Gave Him a Clean Slate0:50:31 — Earning His Way to SEAL Team One0:57:31 — Responsibility Changed the Sailor0:59:30 — Finally Making Navy Chief1:00:21 — Why He Stayed Beyond 20 Years1:04:52 — Education as Personal Growth1:11:32 — Preparing for Life After the Navy1:15:16 — When the Uniform Is No Longer You1:18:12 — Building the Next Mission1:23:36 — Your Transition Is Your Own1:26:27 — Outro: The Next Chapter BeginsSPONSORS:GRND Collective: Premium, veteran-owned sportswear built for those who show up, outwork the excuses, and give 100%.

When standard care relies on decades-old treatments, taking action becomes a necessity. Host Brian Cleary has an intimate conversation with Jen and Josh McConnell—local real estate professionals and founders of The McConnell Foundation—as they open up about the personal story behind their foundation. When their son Bodhi was diagnosed with neuroblastoma at just five months old, their family's experience transformed into a passionate mission to fund pediatric cancer research. Tune in to hear about their journey, their impact, and how you can support their upcoming 5th Annual Shining Stars Gala on September 19th at Wild Dunes Resort. Jen and Josh shed light on a stark reality: only 4% of national cancer research funding goes toward children's cancer, leaving many young patients to rely on adult treatments developed back in the 1950s. Today, Bodhi is a thriving fourth-grader, and the McConnells are channeling their energy into supporting Dr. Jacqueline Kraveka's research lab at the MUSC Shawn Jenkins Children's Hospital. Take Action & Support the Cause: Support pediatric cancer research and grab tickets for the September 19th Shining Stars Gala at Wild Dunes Resort by visiting The McConnell Foundation.

If you were building a house, you'd want to build it on a solid foundation. So why are new teachers expected to build their teaching careers on a rocky foundation?Part of new teachers building a solid foundation requires them to be provided with mentorship and in-class support. It's why I wrote my book, From College to Classroom. And it's why I'm launching my course, Built to Last: Classroom Foundations for Teachers. Building a solid foundation doesn't come from learning as you go, although you could try that. It comes from investing in your knowledge and learning from those who have done this before. RESOURCES MENTIONED:Get the book!Built to Last: Classroom Foundations for Teachers [Course Waitlist]MORE FROM ADVA:Follow Adva on Instagram @coachforteachersFollow Adva on LinkedIn

Sometimes what drives our decisions isn't necessarily what has our best interests in mind. Old survival mechanisms can be running the show, steering us into unfavorable outcomes without us even realizing it. Better outcomes require learning what exactly is driving our behaviors at the deepest level.

Jesus closes the Sermon on the Mount with an image of two houses. Both encounter rain, floods, and wind, but only one remains standing. In Matthew 7.24–27, Jesus reminds us that hearing his words is only the beginning. Faith becomes a foundation when those words are put into practice. Foundation in the Storm considers what it means to build a life capable of enduring when the storms inevitably come. This sermon concludes Hear These Words, a four-week series exploring what the words of Jesus ask of us today. Sermon by: Rev. Dr. Noel Schoonmaker
