Last episode, we walked through the intense landing at Tinian and how Marines clawed their way inland. Once they secured crucial positions, they wasted no time driving south, dismantling Japanese defenses one step at a time. Today, we'll conclude our Tinian series by exploring the campaign's dramatic final stages. We'll cover fierce clashes along rugged cliffs, relentless enemy resistance, and logistical adaptations in the face of severe weather. We'll examine critical innovations in artillery coordination, amphibious logistics, and the first use of napalm in combat. Ultimately, the strategic capture of Tinian transformed the island into a pivotal airbase for the devastating B-29 campaign against Japan, including the missions to Hiroshima and Nagasaki. ************* Visit HistoryoftheMarineCorps.com to subscribe to our newsletter, explore episode notes and images, and see our references.

Have you ever wondered what hidden gems still lie waiting in Reiki's past? This week on the Reiki Lifestyle podcast, we're diving into discoveries that bring fresh light, and new excitement, to our understanding of Reiki's origins. We're thrilled to explore Reiki and the Benevolent Art of Healing by Tomita Kaiji, a historic text recently edited by Dr. Justin Stein. This remarkable work offers rare insights into how early Tomita Kaiji saw healing as an art woven with kindness and compassion. His story shares his life experience with healing others with Reiki energy. Even more intriguing, we'll talk about an incredible find by researcher Min Wang: the Usui Sensei CV and Resume uncovered in Taiwan. This document reveals new details about Mikao Usui's life and career that many of us have never seen before. It's a glimpse into the personal story of Reiki's founder that could reshape how we understand our practice today. Our guest, Dr. Justin Stein, brings unmatched expertise and enthusiasm to this conversation. Justin earned his PhD from the University of Toronto in the Study of Religion and is a leading scholar of Japanese spiritual and religious traditions. He serves as Chair of the Asian Studies Program at Kwantlen Polytechnic University in British Columbia. His book, Alternate Currents: Reiki's Circulation in the Twentieth-Century North Pacific, now published by University of Hawaii Press, explores how Reiki evolved through transnational exchanges between Japan and the United States from the 1920s to the 1970s. His work has appeared in respected journals such as Japanese Religions and Asian Medicine, and he co-edited The Routledge Handbook of Religion, Medicine, and Health. Justin's depth of knowledge, paired with his genuine love for Reiki history, made this episode such a joy to record—and we can't wait for you to hear it. Whether you're an experienced Reiki practitioner or simply curious about where this beautiful practice began, you'll come away inspired and fascinated by these new chapters in Reiki's unfolding story.

Episode 609 of The Knife Junkie Podcast features an inspiring conversation with Lance Strahl of Ironwood Outfitters, a Virginia-based maker who creates functional knives that seamlessly blend adventure and tactical aesthetics.Host Bob DeMarco discovered Strahl's work at Blade Show 2025 through a recommendation from Matt Chase of Hogtooth Knives, leading to this deep exploration of a maker's 16-year journey from Boy Scout camp knives to professional craftsmanship.Strahl's story begins with childhood fascination and a chance encounter at an Alaskan knife shop, evolving through years of self-taught learning using books like Wayne Goddard's "The $50 Knife Shop" rather than YouTube tutorials. His function-first philosophy ensures every piece - from Japanese-wrapped tactical knives to mammoth ivory hunters to fusion-style chef's knives - is built to be used, not displayed."Every piece I make, I expect to be used. I don't remake wall hangers," he explains.The conversation covers Strahl's evolution from backyard forging with bricks, charcoal, and a hairdryer to modern stock removal in his basement workshop, his diverse material choices that range from traditional curly maple to modern synthetics, and his knife-making classes that introduce newcomers to the craft. His design process combines digital modeling with hands-on prototyping, always prioritizing ergonomics and functionality over pure aesthetics.Strahl's recent Blade Show debut not only validated his place in the knife community but opened doors to new friendships and learning opportunities. His willingness to experiment with everything from aqua fortis wood finishing techniques dating to the 1700s to modern stainless steels like Nitro V demonstrates a maker who respects tradition while embracing innovation. Whether discussing his tactical fighters, outdoor utilities, or culinary creations, Strahl's commitment to functional artistry shines through every piece he creates.Listen to the full episode at https://www.theknifejunkie.com/609 and explore Lance Strahl's work at https://ironwoodoutfitters.com or follow him on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/ironwood_outfitters.Be sure to support The Knife Junkie and get in on the perks of being a patron, including early access to the podcast and exclusive bonus content.

In this one, I talk to Katie Ringsmuth. She's the Alaska State Historian, the Deputy State Historic Preservation Officer and the creator of the NN Cannery History Project, a seven-year effort to preserve and interpret the stories of the people who powered one of Alaska's most historic salmon canneries. For Katie, this story is personal. She grew up around the NN Cannery in South Naknek, where her dad worked for decades, eventually becoming the last superintendent of the Alaska Packers' Association. He started in 1964 as a young college graduate in Kodiak, doing whatever odd jobs needed doing — from sorting crab to running the entire operation at the NN Cannery. Under his leadership, the cannery shifted away from the rigid, old-school model of command-and-control superintendents — “Tony Soprano–style,” as Katie puts it — and toward something more humane. He created housing for families, hired women and built a workplace that people returned to year after year. The NN Cannery History Project is more than just about the processing plant, it's about preserving its historical importance and honoring its workers. The cannery itself was a cultural crossroads with a workforce that included Alaska Native peoples, Scandinavians, Italians, Japanese, Chinese, and Filipino laborers. Canned food revolutionized how people ate. It made it possible to preserve and transport perishable foods across vast distances, reshaping global diets and economies — and the NN Cannery was a key player in that transformation. Originally built as a saltery in 1897, the NN Cannery went on to produce more canned salmon than any other cannery in the state. Katie's work on the NN Cannery History Project ultimately led to the site being listed on the National Register of Historic Places, a recognition that underscores its national significance. Throughout the project, Katie explores how Alaska fits into the global history of canned food and how preservation — both of fish and of stories — can change the way we understand place, labor and legacy.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 7-10-2025: Dr. Dawn responds to an email about lion's mane mushroom blood thinning properties. Lion's mane contains hericenones that inhibit platelet aggregation but promote nerve cell growth. People on blood thinners like Eliquis or those with bleeding disorders should stop these supplements before surgery. She recommends lion's mane for cognitive preservation effects despite bleeding risks, emphasizing the need to balance benefits versus risks. An emailer asks about Fatty15 (C15:0 pentadecanoic acid) supplements marketed for longevity. Dr. Dawn finds promising research, however, most studies are in animals with limited human data. She warns against over-supplementation and recommends food-first approaches, suggesting cheaper alternatives like berberine may provide similar benefits. A visiting guest asks about continuing L-arginine after blood pressure normalized. Dr. Dawn recommends continuing L-arginine as it helps produce nitric oxide and prevents age-related arterial stiffening. She explains how blood vessel elasticity decreases with age, creating feed-forward cycles leading to permanent hypertension. The guest also asks about iodine safety - Dr. Dawn confirms 1mg daily is safe, noting Japanese populations consume up to 4mg daily without problems. Another visiting guest inquires about memory-boosting supplements (nootropics). Dr. Dawn identifies nicotine and caffeine as effective options, mentioning she uses nicotine patches for test-taking focus. She discusses lion's mane as effective for cognitive enhancement and coffee blends combining both ingredients. A caller asks about tirzepatide (Mounjaro) for weight loss at age 73, concerned about muscle loss. Dr. Dawn emphasizes the importance of branched-chain amino acids and 20-30 grams of protein before exercise for older adults to build muscle protein. She explains younger people can build muscle while fasting, but older adults need circulating protein during exercise to activate muscle-building DNA. She recommends alternating upper and lower body workouts and checking testosterone levels. Another caller asks about rapid resting pulse rate (80-100 bpm) at age 74. Dr. Dawn suggests checking blood pressure, as low blood pressure can cause compensatory heart rate increases. She explains age-related changes in blood vessel reflexes that can cause blood pooling in legs and orthostatic changes. The caller also complains about pharmaceutical advertising, prompting Dr. Dawn to criticize direct-to-consumer drug marketing for creating artificial needs through emotional manipulation. Dr. Dawn warns against P-Tau217 blood testing for Alzheimer's screening, calling it inadequate for general population screening. The test has poor predictive value below level 10, creating many false positives in low-risk populations. She criticizes associated drugs like donanemab (Kisunla) for severe side effects including brain swelling and hemorrhage. Instead, she recommends lifestyle interventions: exercise, stress control, adequate sleep, reduced alcohol and sugar intake for memory concerns. She criticizes FDA approval of a new blood test for colon cancer screening with 83% sensitivity for detecting existing cancers but poor sensitivity for precancerous polyps. Dr. Dawn criticizes this as inadequate screening since it detects cancer after "the horse has left the barn" rather than preventing it. In closing remarks with her impromptu guests, Dr. Dawn addresses a question about intermittent fasting and exercise timing. She explains that exercising while fasting provides cardiovascular benefits but won't build muscle mass in older adults. She recommends bioimpedance analysis testing to track lean body mass annually in seniors and emphasizes the importance of progressive resistance training to prevent age-related muscle loss.

Nightmare has two worlds. In the red-tinted "real world," players fight snakes and spiders while navigating standard platform challenges. The players here have a "sleep meter" that depletes with every hit taken. If the player's sleep meter drops to empty, the game transitions into the blue-tinted "dream world," where enemies take on the appearance of skeletons and ghosts. An invisible timer also starts, counting down until Freddy appears and forces the player into a brief boss battle. The sleep meter becomes a standard life gauge in the dream world, and deducts a life from the player if drained.Support NEStalgia directly by becoming a member of our Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/Nestalgia Members at the $5 and above level get access to our brand new show NEStalgia Bytes.

We're getting multicultural on this episode as we do a deep dive on the different ways Sonic has been portrayed between Japan and the West. We all know how Sega of America started making changes right from the jump, with their Robotniks and their Mobiuses and their Hardly, Nebraskas...OK, maybe not so much that last one. But the 30+ years that followed have seen a strange back-and-forth of each side borrowing from one another and slowly reintegrating Sonic into one cohesive vision...unless you're an annoying person on social media, in which case the two portrayals couldn't be further from one another, even to this day. Are Japanese and western Sonic really so separate? Did any of the changes end up being to the franchise's benefit in the long run? Or are they forever destined to be two different worlds? Not like the "two worlds" thing that briefly described the setting, but like, as in...you know what, just listen to the episode, you'll get what we mean.

GOOD TROUBLE—Troublemakers is a magazine about society's misfits. At least from the Japanese point of view. A bilingual, English/Japanese magazine, Troublemakers came about as a way to showcase people who were different, who stayed true to themselves, or about the long road those people had taken to self-acceptance.The founders, editor Yuto Miyamoto and art director Manami Inoue, were inspired by a notion that Japanese culture perhaps did not value those who strayed too far from the herd.The magazine has been a success not just in Japan but globally, and perhaps mirrors a trend we see in streaming, for example, of a general public acceptance of universal stories from different places—gengo nanté kinishee ni. Think, especially, of the success of Japanese television and movies like Shogun or Tokyo Vice or Godzilla Minus One. Of Japanese Pop and anime and food. It's an endless list.But Troublemakers is more than just a cultural document. It is proof of something shared, a commonality of human experience that exists everywhere. Speaking to Yuto and Manami, you sense a desire—and an invitation—to connect. With everyone. And that's, ultimately, what Troublemakers tries to do.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press. A production of Magazeum LLC ©2021–2025

Brad Conger thinks consumers will bear the brunt of tariff costs and expects discretionary spending power to get hit in the coming months. He hopes that the U.S. “won't punish the good guys,” like Japanese automakers or foreign drugmakers like Novo Nordisk (NVO). He also notes that China has the “willingness and ability” to support its economy if tariffs hit harder than anticipated. Brad runs through some stock picks and the areas he likes in the bond market.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Dr. Shinyong Kwon joins this week's episode to discuss how neighborhood associations — known today as inminban in the DPRK — have been used as tools of governance, social indoctrination and moral authority. She explains how these associations originated from East Asian communal traditions but were reshaped under Japanese colonial rule to serve wartime mobilization and state control and traces how both Koreas retained and adapted the system post-liberation. Dr. Shinyoung Kwon holds a PhD in history from the University of Chicago and did postdoctoral research at the University of Cambridge. She now lives in the United States. Her book Moral Authoritarianism: Neighborhood Associations in the Three Koreas, 1931–1972 was published in November 2023.
