Joseph Fournier presents “part two” on how Pacific Walker circulation controls Earth's largest greenhouse effect: cloud longwave radiative forcing. He explains cloud radiative forcing terminology, cites literature claiming cloud greenhouse warming dwarfs CO2 forcing, and shows satellite-era links between trade winds, cloud shifts during ENSO, outgoing longwave radiation, and global/tropical temperature anomalies. He contrasts absorbed solar radiation, OLR, and Earth energy imbalance, arguing global averages can be dominated by regional Pacific dynamics. He reviews multidecadal “dimming/brightening” sunshine trends in Europe, Japan and the U.S., discusses aerosols vs natural drivers, and briefly addresses future uncertainty, AMO/IPO impacts, and solar/cosmic-ray hypotheses. 00:00 Welcome Back: Joseph Fournier & Why This Is “Part Two”02:15 Cloud Basics 101: Shortwave vs Longwave, Net Cloud Radiative Forcing05:51 Albedo Matters: How Small Cloud Changes Rival CO₂ Forcing08:40 Evidence in the Literature: Trendberth and Early Satellite Cloud Forcing Maps14:28 Clouds vs CO₂ Since 2000: Step-Change in Cloudiness and OLR16:56 Geography Over Global Averages: The Western Pacific Warm Pool Hotspot20:12 Warm Pool Size, SST, and Real-World Impacts (Winters, ENSO Timescales)22:48 Walker Circulation Explained: Where Deep Convection Sits in La Niña vs El Niño25:34 Warm Pool “Thermal Capacitor”: Thermocline Slosh, Water Volume, and Cloud Shift30:32 Sea Level Pile-Up and the Gravity-Driven Discharge During El Niño32:36 Radiation Signatures of ENSO: DLW/OLR Links to Niño Indices36:13 Cloud Forcing Ratios & Decadal Patterns: What El Niño Does to Warm Pool Clouds40:34 Global Signals: OLR vs Global Air Temperature and the ENSO Lead–Lag45:14 Trade Winds as the Control Knob: Linking Pacific Easterlies to Global OLR47:44 Tropical temps, OLR & trade winds: Walker circulation link48:42 Clouds as the “other knob”: absorbed shortwave (ASR) vs temperature50:29 2023 El Niño cloud changes: low-cloud cover & shifting albedo53:49 ASR vs OLR since 2000: the hiatus ends and the energy budget shifts55:44 Earth Energy Imbalance (EEI) vs GAT: why the correlation breaks57:58 Seasonal cycle first: EEI swings, hemispheres, clouds & land–ocean contrast01:00:10 Wrap-up: two greenhouse effects & a call for academics to test it01:02:54 Sunshine hours & AMO: UK/Europe brightening over the 20th century01:07:26 Aerosols vs clouds: modern satellite trends and the “brightening” debate01:11:53 Global dimming/brightening goes global: Japan/China records & Pacific teleconnections01:12:56 Natural vs human drivers: when aerosols don't explain surface radiation01:18:13 Forecasting the next decade: sun, AMO/IPO, cooling claims & big uncertainties01:26:17 Closing remarks: slides, Substack, and the climate–energy–geopolitics linkMore information about Joseph Fournier: https://co2coalition.org/teammember/joseph-fournier/His 2024 presentation: https://youtu.be/P2hVW0R67CYJoseph's Substack: https://josephfournier.substack.com/X: https://x.com/JosephF55175005=========Slides, summaries, references, and transcripts of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summariesMy Linktree: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1

Buying a business is hard. Holding and growing it for decades is even harder. Today, Gat Caperton shares how he acquired a struggling West Virginia furniture maker at age 29 and spent nearly three decades building Gat Creek into a resilient, American-made manufacturer. He discusses applying lean manufacturing, investing heavily in technology, and surviving the “China Shock” by differentiating on quality and values. Gat also reflects on tariffs, sustainability, and how domestic manufacturing supports rural communities, jobs, and long-term economic resilience.

Dit is een nieuwe aflevering uit de podcastreeks over werken in het onderwijs, gemaakt op uitnodiging van het Nationaal Kennisinstituut Onderwijs (voorheen het NRO).  Dit is de tweede aflevering van het thema bestuurlijk vermogen in het onderwijs. In deze aflevering ontmoet ik Marlies Honingh en Edith van Montfort. We gaan in gesprek over het onderzoeksrapport ‘Aard en doorwerking van sturingsrelaties: de sleutel tot toekomstgericht onderwijs'. Het onderzoek beschrijft hoe complex de relatie is tussen bestuur, schoolleiding en onderwijskwaliteit, en waarom het belangrijk is om bestuurlijke logica's en pedagogische uitgangspunten met elkaar te verbinden. We spreken over:

The Torah in Parashat Bo (12:40) states that Beneh Yisrael spent a total of 430 years in Egypt. Already Rashi notes the seeming contradiction between this verse and G-d's prophecy to Abraham Abinu that his descendants would endure a 400-year period of exile and oppression (Bereshit 15:13). Why did G-d predict a period of 400 years, if Beneh Yisrael were going to spend 430 years in exile? Rashi explains that the number depends on the starting point. The period from the birth of Yishak until the Exodus was 400 years, but Abraham received this prophecy thirty years prior to Yishak's birth, for a total of 430 years. The Shela Ha'kadosh (Rav Yeshaya Horowitz, d. 1630) offered a different answer, boldly asserting that G-d added thirty years to the period of exile. G-d informed Abraham that his descendants would live as foreigners for 400 years – but as a result of Mechirat Yosef, the sale of Yosef as a slave by his brothers, thirty years were added. The Shela explains that Yosef was brought out of the dungeon in Egypt and appointed the country's vizier at the age of thirty (Bereshit 41:46). In a sense, then, his first thirty years were stolen from him because of his brothers' cruelty. Therefore, it was decreed that Beneh Yisrael would endure an additional thirty years of oppression. The Shela's theory sheds light on the Gemara's comments in Masechet Sanhedrin (92) regarding the mistake made by the tribe of Efrayim. The Gemara says about the people of Efrayim, "Manu Le'ketz Ve'ta'u" – they miscalculated the end of the Egyptian exile. When they erroneously thought that the time for redemption had arrived, they left Egypt. But when they reached the Philistine region of Gat, they were attacked by the Philistines, and many were killed, while some managed to escape back to Egypt. The Gemara says that the remains of those people from Efrayim were the "dry bones" that were miraculously brought back to life in Yehezkel's famous prophecy. On the basis of the Shela's analysis, we can understand more clearly why the tribe of Efrayim made this mistake. If, indeed, an extra thirty years were added on account of the sin of Mechirat Yosef, then it stands to reason that the tribe of Efrayim – who descended from Yosef – assumed that they did not need to wait the additional thirty years. Since this period was a punishment for the crime committed against Yosef, they figured, it did not affect them, the descendants of Yosef. They therefore left Egypt thirty years early, at the end of the period of exile that was initially decreed. The question then becomes, why were the people of Efrayim wrong? Why were they killed for leaving Egypt early? The answer emerges from a passage in the Zohar regarding another consequence of Mechirat Yosef. Each year, on Tisha B'Ab, we recite a special Kinna (dirge) about the "Asara Harugeh Malchut" – the ten great Rabbis who were brutally murdered by the Romans. The Zohar teaches that these great Rabbis were Gilgulim (reincarnations) of the brothers, and they were killed to atone for the sin of Mechirat Yosef. Now in truth, only nine of the twelve brothers participated in Mechirat Yosef: Yosef, of course, was the victim; Binyamin, the youngest, was home and not involved; and Reuben was not present when the other brothers decided to sell Yosef, and in fact tried to rescue him. Why, then, were ten Rabbis killed to atone for the sin committed by only nine brothers? The answer is that Yosef himself bore a degree of guilt. While his brothers of course acted wrongly by selling him as a slave, he was partially responsible for their hostility. He reported to Yaakob about their alleged wrongdoing, and provoked them, arousing their hatred. Therefore, he, too, was accountable. This, then, was the tribe of Efrayim's mistake. The additional thirty years were decreed also for them, the descendants of Yosef, because he was partially responsible for what happened. Their decision to leave Egypt was thus a mistake, as they, too, were required to spend an additional thirty years in Egypt.

If technology is ruining the art of conversation, maybe it can save it, too. Anna Gat--poet, screenwriter, playwright, and founder of Interintellect--talks with EconTalk's Russ Roberts on how she's reviving the French salon in the digital age. They discuss why authority, moderation, and clear formats make conversation freer, not more constrained. They also explore why one of the greatest of modern plays--Tom Stoppard's Arcadia--is so resonant not only as a live theatrical performance, but also when read aloud, both alone and in a group. They conclude the episode by connecting Arcadia's themes to Gat's mission at Interintellect: Namely, preserving the value of thinking together across generations, disciplines, and worldviews.

Having remembered a family tragedy, Cadence presses the Liars for answers; Mirren reveals a crush gone awry, Johnny recalls an unwanted visitor and Gat recounts their relationship's painful turn; Cadence suspects that one Liar is hiding something.

In Week 3 of Songs For the Road, guest speaker Jason Workman leads us through Psalm 122—a song of gladness and longing for the gathered people of God. As pilgrims ascending to Jerusalem, God's people were reminded that worship isn't just about a place; it's about being built together into a spiritual home. From the earthly Jerusalem to the new Jerusalem, and from the temple built with stones to the temple of God's Spirit within us, we are invited to seek peace, unity, and the good of God's household. This message calls us to love the real church more than our ideal of it, and to look forward to the day when God makes all things new.For more information about Integrity Church, visit our website, http://liveintegritychurch.org Connect with us on social media throughout the week to stay up to date on events and things happening at Integrity!

Kencan Dengan Tuhan - Selasa, 17 Juni 2025Bacaan: "Tetapi Engkau, TUHAN, adalah perisai yang melindungi aku, Engkaulah kemuliaanku dan yang mengangkat kepalaku. Dengan nyaring aku berseru kepada TUHAN, dan Ia menjawab aku dari gunung-Nya yang kudus." (Mazmur 3:4-5)Renungan: Daud adalah orang yang sering masuk dalam situasi-situasi yang membahayakan jiwanya. Situasi dengan risiko besar, yakni nyawanya dipertaruhkan. Oleh karena itu, Daud sadar perlunya tangan Tuhan sebagai pegangan ketika berada dalam lembah yang kelam. Jadi tidak heran jika banyak mazmur atau nyanyian yang dia gubah sebagai ungkapan hatinya ketika berada dalam bahaya maut. Tercatat ada 73 mazmur yang ditulis oleh Raja Daud dan 13 di antaranya adalah mazmur yang berhubungan dengan peristiwa-peristiwa di dalam sejarah kehidupan Daud. Misalnya, ketika Daud harus melarikan diri dari Absalom, maka dia menggubah Mazmur 3. Ketika Daud pura-pura tidak waras di hadapan Abimelekh, sehingga dia diusir dan lari, dia menggubah Mazmur 34. Ketika orang Filistin menangkap Daud di Gat, maka Daud menggubah Mazmur 56. Ketika terjadi peristiwa di mana Saul menyuruh orang mengawasi rumah Daud untuk membunuhnya, maka dia menggubah Mazmur 59. Mungkin keadaan kita saat ini tidak seekstrem seperti situasi yang dijelaskan di atas, tetapi bukankah setiap hari kita menghadapi risiko atau konsekuensi? Setiap keputusan atau tindakan yang kita ambil selalu ada konsekuensi atau risiko yang mengikutinya. Untuk itu perlunya kita memohon kepada Tuhan untuk menjaga dan memberi hikmat sehingga semua yang kita putuskan adalah yang terbaik dan tidak bertentangan dengan kehendak-Nya. Situasi yang berhahaya tidak perlu ditakuti, tetapi perlu dihadapi dengan hikmat dan iman yang kuat kepada Tuhan. Tangan-Nya yang kuat akan menopang kita. Tuhan Yesus memberkati. Doa:Tuhan Yesus, ketika aku berada di dalam lembah kekelaman, tolong aku untuk tetap menegakkan kepalaku karena aku percaya kepada kuasa-Mu. Amin. (Dod).

  A Place Called Gethsemane The Passion Week account of Jesus happens during the annual feast of Passover for the Jews.  This is one of three times that every Jew was required to travel to Jerusalem to celebrate the feast.  Jesus being a devout Jew went to the city as well not only for the feast but to complete His awesome mission. Not every Jew in the world could possibly come but it is estimated that 1 to 1.5 million people would be in the city during Passover.  The picture below from the Temple Institute in Israel shows the 1000's entering the city at Passover.  Since Jerusalem was a city of perhaps an estimated population 35,000 to 80,000 depending on the archaeologist, it is clear that the city could not handle such a dramatic increase in population.  Every extra room was rented and those not finding rooms camped out on the hills nearby or they sought lodging in nearby towns like Bethlehem or Bethany.  Many of those who camped out in the hills around Jerusalem would more than likely camp on the beautiful slopes of the surrounding hills like Mount of Olives east of Jerusalem. (Vander Laan 177)       After Jesus and His apostles had completed the Passover Seder meal they went to the Mount of Olives to a place called Gethsemane at the Mount of Olives in an olive grove.  The account can be found in Matt 26:36, Mark 14:32, Luke 22:39 and John 18:1.  The word Gethsemane is the English transliteration of a Greek word which was based on two Hebrew words.  (Picture below from Permaculture Research Institute, is a good idea of what the side of the Mt. of Olives would have looked like in Jesus' day). The first was GAT.  The Hebrew word stands for a press.  The second word is SHEMIN which means oil – like olive oil.  The plural in Hebrew is Sheminim.  Thus, Gat Sheminim means a press for oils and referred to in most cases an olive press.  (Vander Laan 178) Today in Israel one can visit Tel Maresha in the Negev.  At this tel archaeologists found the remains of a perfectly intact olive press.  Olive presses were built in caves close to an olive grove.  The cave itself would have “windows” cut into the walls and an air shaft in the roof.  These “windows” and the airshaft were used to control the airflow and temperature since processing olives required a certain temperature range.  The olives themselves were processed by first smashing them with a millstone to break open the skins.   The smashed olives were then put into special porous bags and crushed under the weight of huge weighted down cypress logs in the main press room.  The olive oil would run down into a basin which had a drain directly into a collection jar below the pile of bags of crushed olive pulp.  The jar of oil would be sealed when filled and made ready to be taken to market.  (Vander Laan 178)  The picture below is of the Gat Sheminim at Tel Maresha Israel courtesy of Israel Travel Inc. Where is this exact location of where Jesus prayed and is there a connection to the Gat Sheminim and the word Gethsemane?  As far as location is concerned, “Christian tradition has always placed Gethsemane on the lower slopes of the Mount of Olives – though today the Roman Catholic and Russian Orthodox churches hallow different sites.”  (Reader's Digest 186)  Recently, however, archaeologists working at the base of the Mount of Olives made a very interesting discovery.  “A cave nearby was recently identified as containing an ancient olive press.  Early 6th century tradition supports this cave as being Jesus' Gethsemane.” (Vander Laan 179)   Moreover, no archaeological evidence nor evidence from ancient descriptions of the city of Jerusalem and its surroundings as ever found a place called the Garden of Gethsemane.  This name is a modern label attached to an area that tourists would come to experience what the place called Gethsemane in the Bible was like.  “The designation ‘Gethsemane' does not occur outside the gospels.  Even Luke 22:39 omits the name, using the more general description, ‘the Mount of Olives.'”(Flusser 251) What we know for a fact is that the Mount of Olives had an olive grove and near olive groves one will find a Gat Sheminim or an olive press.   One might conjecture the following based upon the fact that in the Jewish culture God taught His people difficult theological truths with the use of pictures – as in the case of the word tekton and 1 Peter 2:4-6.  Jesus went to the Mount of Olives and entered the gat sheminim, or the olive press, to find a secluded place to pray.  He would prefer the seclusion of the press since there were many possible pilgrims camping out on the slopes of the hill for Passover and the press would be located in a quiet cave.  Perhaps Jesus knew the owner and was able to gain private access to the olive press.  Again, all of this is conjecture but it is based on the archaeological evidence that is factual.   In the gat sheminim, or in a location very close, we know that Jesus prayed and was in deep stress and anguish.  In the account found in Luke 22:44 Jesus' sweat was like drops of  blood.  What is intriguing about this picture is a verse found in Isaiah 53:5.  This verse for us Christians says He was crushed for our inequities.  When one makes the connection between the discovery of the olive press and how it was used and these verses it would seem that God is showing us how Jesus was crushed – like an olive crushed by the weight of a huge cypress log with heavy weights attached.  It would seem that God Himself is making use of the archaeological discoveries to open up the world of the Bible to us so that its meaning is enhanced.  Do we know for a fact that Jesus was in the olive press or the Gat Sheminim?  No we do not.  But, these discoveries perhaps are given to us to intensify our understanding of His word and the picture of the gat sheminim can simply be used to help us understand the scope of Jesus' stress and anxiety that horrible night.

La rumeur enfle depuis plusieurs jours : les groupes armés de la coalition Vivre Ensemble se prépareraient à fondre sur Pétion-Ville, banlieue cossue de Port-au-Prince qui abrite le siège du gouvernement, les ambassades et les organisations internationales. C'est un jour-clé, parce qu'en Haïti, cette date du 7 février renvoie à la chute de la dictature des Duvalier en 1986, poussés dehors par une insurrection populaire. Les gangs chercheraient à surfer sur ce symbole de l'histoire haïtienne et le Conseil présidentiel de transition à placer la capitale en état d'alerte maximale pour les trois prochains jours.Les Haïtiens entrevoient malgré tout une lueur d'espoir, car l'administration Trump a levé les doutes et affirmé qu'elle soutiendrait bel et bien la Mission multinationale d'appui à la sécurité (MMAS). Au terme d'une importante visite hier (6 février 2025) en République dominicaine, le nouveau patron de la diplomatie américaine, Marco Rubio, a promis que les États-Unis ne quitteraient pas le navire : « La solution pour Haïti est aux mains d'Haïti, de son peuple, de ses élites. Mais nous allons les aider. Nous allons participer parce que nous ne pouvons pas ignorer les problèmes actuels. Le futur du pays doit être aux mains des Haïtiens. Malheureusement, aujourd'hui une grande partie du territoire est contrôlée par des gangs armés. Il faut faire face à ce danger. Le premier objectif est donc de pacifier cette situation. Et la seule option, c'est la mission qui existe. Nous allons continuer à la soutenir. Mais le cadre de cette mission doit être élargi pour pouvoir éliminer ces gangs. »En substance, c'est aussi le discours de Luis Abinader à la sortie de son tête-à-tête à Saint-Domingue avec Marco Rubio. On connaît la rhétorique au vitriol du président dominicain au sujet d'Haïti et les tensions politiques et migratoires entre les deux pays. Abinader estime depuis toujours que la crise sécuritaire haïtienne menace les Dominicains, et il s'est plaint hier que trop de gouvernements étrangers restent spectateurs du carnage : « Il n'y a pas de temps à perdre. La situation d'Haïti est une menace pour la sécurité de toute la région, et pour les États-Unis. Chaque jour, le pays est confronté à la barbarie. Haïti se noie. Et pendant ce temps-là, une partie de la communauté internationale observe la gravité de la situation depuis le rivage. Nous savons tous les deux que nos pays ne peuvent pas fuir la responsabilité de faire face à cette situation avec une grande détermination. Dans le cas d'Haïti, la participation des États-Unis est essentielle et irremplaçable ».Coïncidence : pendant qu'Abinader et Rubio échangeaient à Saint-Domingue, la MMAS accueillait à Port-au-Prince un nouveau contingent de policiers kenyans. 144 agents sont arrivés hier, dont 24 femmes, les premières policières kenyanes à être déployées en Haïti. La MMAS compte désormais environ un millier de membres. Elle récupère aussi trois hélicoptères militaires en provenance du Salvador, qui ont été livrés hier et qui vont servir à l'évacuation des blessés. Le Fort Saint-Joseph, incarnation d'un patrimoine haïtien en déshérence Notre consœur du média d'investigation en ligne Ayibopost, Lucnise Duquereste, signe un article consacré au Fort Saint-Joseph, qui surplombe la baie du Cap Haïtien, un symbole de la lutte et de la résistance face aux colons français. L'édifice, construit par la France entre 1748 et 1774, « a été repris par les esclaves pendant la période révolutionnaire […] avant de tomber définitivement sous le contrôle de l'armée indigène en 1803, après la bataille de Vertières », rappelle-t-elle.Ce bâtiment, pourtant classé au Patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO depuis 20 ans, se dégrade faute d'entretien et les travaux de restauration entamés en 2022 ont été interrompus par manque de moyens. L'Institut de Sauvegarde du Patrimoine National (ISPAN) ne peut intervenir, déplore son directeur général, Patrick Durandisse, qui souligne les contraintes financières et les obstacles logistiques liés à l'insécurité croissante. « Nous comptons aujourd'hui 176 sites et fortifications historiques en danger, voire en péril », alerte le responsable.Si aucune mesure n'est prise pour assurer la sauvegarde de parc national historique, comprenant la Citadelle Laferrière, le Palais Sans-Souci et le Palais des Ramiers, il risque le déclassement de la liste des patrimoines de l'humanité de l'UNESCO. Le canal de Panama mis en péril par la sécheresse et le changement climatiqueLe canal, qui permet de relier les océans Atlantique et Pacifique sans avoir à contourner le continent par le Sud, représente la première source de revenus du Panama. Il repose sur un système de grandes écluses qui nécessitent d'énormes quantités d'eau douce. Chaque transit consomme environ 200 millions de litres d'eau, en grande partie rejetés dans la mer. Pour l'alimenter, deux réservoirs artificiels : le lac Gatún et le lac Alajuela, qui se nourrissent des précipitations et assurent non seulement le fonctionnement des écluses, mais aussi l'approvisionnement en eau potable des riverains.En 2023, le phénomène météorologique El Niño a provoqué une sécheresse historique et sévère des bassins versants, ces zones qui collectent les eaux pluviales de ruissellement et qui garantissent l'approvisionnement en eau du canal. Le niveau d'eau s'établissait à 1,80 mètre sous la normale, causant ainsi un ralentissement du commerce maritime international et des embouteillages de cargos.Ces dérèglements se multiplient sous l'effet du réchauffement climatique. Résultat, l'Autorité du canal plafonne le nombre de navires autorisés à traverser, ce qui représente une grosse perte en matière de chiffre d'affaires et entraîne d'importantes conséquences environnementales.Pour y remédier, le gouvernement panaméen envisage des solutions de court terme : obliger les compagnies à effectuer des réservations pour toute traversée, mettre en place une surveillance accrue des fuites d'eau, ou encore la technique du cross-filing, qui consiste à réutiliser l'eau d'une chambre à l'autre par un système de remplissage croisé, sauvant l'équivalent de la consommation de six transits journaliers (sur une trentaine en moyenne.À long terme, on parle aussi du projet de barrage Rio Indio, estimé à près d'1,6 milliard de dollars, 840 mètres de long et 80,5 mètres de haut. Il s'agit d'endiguer la rivière Indio toute proche et de relier ce nouveau réservoir au lac Gatún qui alimente le canal en eau, grâce à un tunnel de 8 kilomètre à creuser dans la montagne.Le président panaméen y semble favorable, mais la population locale rechigne et les experts sont dubitatifs, car ce projet implique des sacrifices. Les vallées fluviales d'El Zaino et de La Arenosa, riches en biodiversité et habitées par des communautés agricoles, seraient submergées. Près de 2 260 personnes devraient être relogées, et 2 000 autres seraient partiellement affectées. Le gouvernement a promis un budget de 400 millions de dollars pour indemniser les familles et les relocaliser, mais la méfiance est palpable.Une chose est sûre, la dégradation environnementale des bassins versants du Canal du Panama entraîne un ralentissement de l'activité économique déjà fragile du pays – une tendance mondiale, qui rappelle la permanence de l'enjeu de l'eau.Dossier signé Chloé Balta, à réécouter dans son intégralité dans l'édition du jour. Russell Vought, une nomination polémique validée par le Sénat américainIl vient d'être confirmé à la tête d'une agence stratégique : le Bureau américain du budget. Les Démocrates ont tout fait pour saboter le processus, mais ils n'avaient pas les voix. Par 53 votes contre 47, cet idéologue conservateur revient dans le fauteuil qu'il occupait pendant le premier mandat Trump. Pourquoi tant de haine ? Parce que Russell Vought, c'est un partisan de terre brûlée, co-auteur du « Projet 2025 », un catalogue de mesures ultra-libérales et réactionnaires censé servir de référence au Parti républicain. Le New York Times rappelle l'un de ses discours à propos des fonctionnaires fédéraux, en 2023. « Nous voulons, disait-il, traumatiser les bureaucrates. Ce que nous voulons, lorsqu'ils se lèvent le matin, c'est qu'ils n'aient pas envie d'aller travailler parce qu'ils sentent qu'ils sont devenus des pestiférés ». Avec Russell Vought, on s'attend à un énorme plan d'économies, dont la revue Forbes liste les priorités : tailler dans les programmes d'éducation civique, réduire le périmètre du ministère du logement, dépouiller l'assurance-maladie pour les plus démunis et s'en prendre à l'Agence de protection de l'environnement. C'est aussi un défenseur acharné de la fonction présidentielle, qui doit, selon lui, pouvoir passer outre certaines lois votées par le Congrès américain. L'actualité des Outre-mer avec nos confrères de la 1èreRodrigue Petitot, le leader du RPPRAC (Rassemblement pour la protection des peuples et des ressources afro-caribéens) dénonce une nouvelle fois les accords signés en octobre 2024 et réclame un nouveau protocole contre la vie chère en Martinique.

Después de escapar de la ciudad filistea de Gat, David se escondió en la cueva de Adulam (1 Sam 22:1-2), donde escribió el Salmo 57. David huía y se escondía de sus enemigos. Desde esta cueva, David se refiere a Dios como su refugio (57:1). Se hace referencia a Dios 21 veces por su nombre o pronombre en los 11 versículos del Salmo. Esta mentalidad centrada en Dios cambia el tono del salmista de la incertidumbre a la alabanza firme. Hay un cambio de tono y tema entre las dos estrofas que ha dejado perplejos a algunos eruditos que buscan un tema unificado en el Salmo. Pasando de la súplica individual (vv. 1-4) a una invocación de que Dios manifestaría su gloria a toda la tierra (vv. 9-11), algunos han propuesto que el Salmo es una recopilación de dos composiciones separadas. Pero juntas, las dos secciones presentan los detalles de la necesidad individual en el contexto del asunto sustancial más amplio de la gloria de Dios. Cuando estamos experimentando una prueba, podemos "perder el bosque por los árboles", enfocándonos en la liberación de nuestras circunstancias, sin perder de vista cómo nuestra prueba contribuye al gran objetivo de la historia: que Dios sea conocido y honrado. David quiere que Dios sea exaltado sobre toda la tierra, en la forma en que confía y alaba a Dios en sus pruebas. El Salmo 57 nos muestra que nuestras oraciones por la liberación de la angustia sirven a un fin mayor que simplemente un cambio de circunstancias o sentimientos, pero nuestro sufrimiento es, en última instancia, para la gloria de Dios.

Kencan Dengan Tuhan - Senin, 13 Januari 2025 Bacaan: "Sengsaraku Engkaulah yang menghitung-hitung. air mataku Kautaruh ke dalam kirbat-Mu. Bukankah semuanya telah Kaudaftarkan?" (Mazmur 56:9) Renungan: Beratnya beban hidup dapat membuat seseorang bersedih dan menangis. Dalam kondisi demikian, diperlukan seseorang untuk mendampingi, bahkan menghapus air mata. Peluang ini ditangkap oleh sebuah perusahaan di Jepang. Mereka menyediakan jasa penyeka air mata, khusus bagi para wanita. Ketika seseorang bersedih, ia dapat menghubungi seorang penyeka air mata untuk mendampinginya. Usaha ini bernama Ikemeso, yang berarti "Si Cowok Cakep", karena para penyeka air mata itu adalah pria-pria rupawan. Untuk mendapatkan layanan ini, Anda harus membayar 65 dollar Amerika atau sekitar 900 ribu rupiah. Untuk menghindari Raja Saul yang ingin membunuhnya, Daud melarikan diri ke kota Gat. Namun orang Filistin menangkapnya lalu menghadapkannya kepada raja mereka. Saking takutnya, Daud berpura-pura gila dan berlagak amnesia, sehingga mereka pun melepaskannya. Rasa takut Daud ini diungkapkannya dalam Mazmur 56. Daud mengadu kepada Allah tentang bagaimana musuh-musuhnya membuatnya sengsara dan menginginkan kematiannya. Dalam ketakutan itu, Daud tetap percaya kepada Tuhan. la berserah kepada Tuhan dan mengharapkan pembelaan-Nya. la mengungkapkan segala kesedihan dan sengsaranya kepada Tuhan. Daud tahu bahwa Tuhan memperhatikannya, bahkan menghitung berapa banyak air matanya telah tertumpah. Walau tidak hadir secara fisik, tetapi ia merasakan Allah menyeka air matanya dan menghiburnya. Apakah saat ini kita sedang mengalami beban berat sehingga kita tidak dapat berdoa dan hanya air mata yang keluar ketika kita datang di hadapan Tuhan? Tetaplah andalkan Dia, karena hanya Dialah sandaran sejati dalam kesengsaraan kita. Tuhan Yesus memberkati. Doa: Tuhan Yesus, Engkaulah andalanku dalam setiap pergumulan hidupku. Jangan biarkan aku goyah, tapi tetaplah ada untukku. Amin. (Dod).

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit chadcrouch.substack.comWapato Park is pretty great, partially because it's easily overlooked and therefore never crowded. Its full name is Wapato Access Greenway State Park. It's a sleeper park, the kind you stumble on if you like studying maps. The small gravel parking lot trailhead is on a dead end road, and easy to miss. Interestingly, it's the only trailhead on Sauvie Island that you don't have to pay $10 ($30/yr) to park at. In the winter the trail can be quite muddy, in the late spring and summer it can get buggy, and if you're really unlucky, your car can get busted into. Still, it's worth a visit.On a mild February day earlier this year I strolled around its shores, and down to the dock on the river. This soundscape records the wildlife and ambience of winter. You'll hear Common Raven, spirited and unusual vocalizations from Stellar's Jays, a Pileated Woodpecker, Ruby-crowned and Golden-crowned Kinglets, and all kinds of water birds. Sometimes you even see Tundra Swans in small numbers here.Reminiscences of Louis Labonte (1900) recalls life on Scappoose Creek near Sauvie's Island, as a teenage boy, from about 1833 to 1836. Labonte [Jr.] was the son of Astor expedition member Louis Labonte [Sr.] and his native wife, daughter of Clatsop Chief Coboway.Game on the ponds of the island was very abundant, consisting of deer, bear, and panthers and wildcats; and beaver were still plentiful; but the waterfowl of the most magnificent kind, at their season of passage, and, indeed much of the year, almost forbade the hunter to sleep.Indeed, the lake was so covered by the flock as almost to conceal the water.So we can forgive Capt. William Clark for his 1805 journal remark referring to the swans, geese and cranes: “they were emensely numerous and their noise horrid.” Here we have another recollection of wildlife din riotous enough to make sleeping difficult.And, here I am thinking about this place prior to Euro-American settlement again, prior to industrialization and the inescapable anthropogenic noise coming from the commercial aircraft corridor above, the highway to the west, and the motorboats in the channel.Now, you might be thinking to yourself, boy Chad sure brings up indigenous people a lot, for being a field recording and music guy. It's true. I think it's because I get so tuned into natural soundscape, that I'm curious to imagine all the details of what life was like two hundred-plus years ago. When I'm editing my field recordings with splices and EQ filters and cut & paste techniques to approximate a pre-industrial quietude, I can't help but think people used to be much more in tune with wildlife and weather. In the vicinity of Wapato Park, human history goes deeper than is often discussed. According to amateur archeologist Emory Strong, there are three archeological points of interest nearby:MU 6. Cath-la-nah-qui-ah. six houses and 400 inhabitants.  Nathaniel Wyeth built Fort William near this town but the residents had all died in the pestilence by then. Dr. Mclaughlin had all the houses burned.  Excavations reveal everything covered with a film of cedar charcoal.MU 7. The site of Wyeth's Fort WilliamMU 8. One of the prehistoric sites that appears to be very old. There are no game or fish bones, and the midden has a different character from the more recent sites. (Stone Age on the Columbia River, 1958)[“MU” here is just an archeological prefix indicating Multnomah County. The modern trinomial standard now includes a code for Oregon as a prefix: 35 MU 6 and so on.] Each is an interesting story. Let's discuss. (35 MU 6) Cath-la-nah-qui-ah (or Gat-la-na-koa-iq), was a Multnomah tribe village on Multnomah Channel. The size estimate of 400 inhabitants belongs to Lewis and Clark. This would have been about half the size of the main Multnomah village on the other side of the island, in that time period. This is what that milieu looked like on the day I visited.This is what the plank houses looked like 200 years ago. They varied in size from 15' x 30' all the way up to 30' x 400':This is what the inside of a plankhouse looked like:Today, if not obliterated by erosion, or dike building, one would only expect to see slight depression in the soil on the site where one of these plankhouses stood. In the early 1800's there were hundreds of them on the lower Columbia. The pestilence of the 1830's is now widely regarded to have been a malaria epidemic. Sauvie Island tribes—perhaps owing to the marshy landscape— were particularly devastated. The Indians believed it had been introduced by an American ship involved in the salmon trade, the Owyhee, commanded by John Dominis. They may have been right, as the ship had visited malarial ports before sailing to the Columbia. The impact of fever and ague on Native people in Oregon was earthshaking. In the 1820s, they had been by far the majority population in the region; by the early 1840s, they were in the minority. (Disease Epidemics among Indians, 1770s-1850s)Dr. McLoughlin was the Chief Factor of Fort Vancouver, upriver about 10 miles. This was the center of operations and trade for the entire Pacific Northwest, on behalf of French-Canadian Hudson's Bay Co (HBC). In addition to the to the Cath-la-nah-qui-ah village, HBC men also burned the larger Multnomah village (35 MU 2, 800 inhabitants, originally much larger) on the east side of the island, presumably in an effort to curb the epidemic.In an 1895 article for The Oregonian, pioneer John Minto reminisced about the “old Multnomah nation” and its appearance fifty years before, in 1845. We landed and camped for the night at the site of the last Multnomah village, but at which that time there were no Indians nor sign of recent Indian life. There was however an extensive city of the dead, a cemetery laid out in streets as wide as the plat of Riverview Cemetery at Portland. The dead were deposited on structures of wide split cedar boards three or more inches thick, set upright; sometimes three tiers of horizontal boards one above the other, mortised into and secured by twisted inner bark of cedar. On these the dead were laid wrapped in cedar bark. He included this remark about what he heard:It was rare that a traveller should pass a village at night without hearing at the same time the women wailing for the dead and the monotonous beat of a tom-tom. Now, I know that maybe this all seems like a tangent. But, these are testimonials both to the look and sound of that time that I think is not just interesting, but worth sharing, particularly on public lands where these events happened. And for my part, why not include them with narratives about my soundscape recordings also bearing witness to the land?Just 8 years after Minto's observations of the Multnomah village site, in 1853, Simon Morgan Reeder settled the donation land claim (originally belonging to one N. D. Miller) on which once stood the largest village of the island. Today the main road on the east side of the island, Reeder Road, bears his name. Now let us turn to (35 MU 7) Fort William, the abandoned effort to set up a trading post on Sauvie Island by Nathaniel J. Wyeth, rivaling HBC, on behalf of American investors in 1834. Two roadside monuments have been erected nearby. Let's be clear: these are monuments to a failed business venture. Upon arrival, Wyeth saw opportunity in the Natives' misfortune, writing in his journals "providence has made room for me and with doing them [Natives] more injury than I should if I had made room for myself viz Killing them off."[3]Wyeth had many setbacks in his attempt to establish Fort William. In 1835 one of his men was killed at the hands of another. Reading a correspondence from his investors, one might surmise Wyatt was a poor communicator, if not lacking the temperament of a leader.Finally there is (35 MU 8) “a prehistoric site that appears to be very old. There are no game or fish bones…” Here we are to understand the bones decomposed in the intervening time span. These weren't the original vegans of the Portland basin. My best attempts to research this further yielded nothing. Were these the ancestors of the Multnomahs, the Chinookan peoples? The landscape holds a lot of mysteries. I think about them when I listen to it. Thank you for reading and listening. I hope you enjoy Wapato Park Soundwalk.

1 Ein Lied von David, nach der Melodie: »Die Taube verstummt in der Fremde«. Es stammt aus der Zeit, als die Philister ihn in Gat festgenommen hatten. 2 Gott, hab Erbarmen mit mir, denn man will mich zur Strecke bringen! Die Feinde bedrängen mich den ganzen Tag. 3 Unaufhörlich greifen sie mich an, viele bekämpfen mich in ihrem Hochmut. 4 Doch gerade […]

DEVOCIÓN MATUTINA VESPERTINA“SALMOS”Narrado por: Joyce VejarDesde: Arizona, USAUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist Church29 DE JULIO SALMO 57:6-11 «Firme está, oh Dios, mi corazón; firme está mi corazón. Voy a cantarte salmos» (SAL. 57:7).  En los versículos 1-5 vemos que David está confirmando las dificultades que estaba experimentando, pero debido a que Dios era su refugio, estaba confiado en que el Dios Altísimo respondería y reprocharía a sus enemigos; entonces él exaltaría al Dios que reina sobre todo con la esperanza de que Su gloria será vista sobre toda la tierra. En el versículo 6, David comienza a describir lo que sus enemigos están haciendo, sin embargo, cuando comienza a observar cómo Dios estaba obrando a su favor, su corazón se fortalece. Él había dicho que Dios reprocharía al que lo pisoteara, y ahora es testigo de cómo lo estaba haciendo, ya que sus enemigos cayeron en la misma fosa que habían cavado para destruir a David. La fidelidad de Dios produce firmeza y constancia en David. Dios siempre está obrando, sin embargo, a menos que lo busquemos, no lo vemos. David sabía que Dios había perdonado su pecado y, en vez de rogar por la misericordia de Dios, comienza a cantarle alabanzas. Su corazón está firme porque ha entendido que «las misericordias del Señor jamás terminan, pues nunca fallan sus bondades; son nuevas cada mañana; ¡grande es tu fidelidad!» (Lam. 3:22-23, LBLA). No son letras que él ha oído o canciones que ha cantado, sino lo que él ha vivido. A pesar de su infidelidad, ¡Dios era fiel (2 Tim. 2:13)! Su corazón está firme porque Dios ha demostrado Su amor, bondad y gracia, por tanto, la confianza y el amor que David tiene por su Dios ha aumentado.  Aunque él no demostró la gloria de Dios a los filisteos en Gat, trayendo vergüenza a sí mismo y deshonra a su Dios, él se ha arrepentido y ahora su deseo es traerle la gloria cantando los salmos desde la mañanita hasta la noche. Él quiere despertar la aurora alabando a Dios y traer Su gloria no solamente a Gat, sino a todas las naciones. Ahora que sus pecados han sido perdonados, él quiere demostrar Su misericordia y verdad a todos. Ahora él puede cantar «Los cielos cuentan la gloria de Dios, el firmamento proclama la obra de sus manos» (Sal. 19:1).  David ha probado y ha visto que Dios es bueno y él se sentía bienaventurado porque Dios había sido su refugio (Sal. 34:8). «Dios es nuestro amparo y nuestra fortaleza, nuestra ayuda segura en momentos de angustia» (Sal. 46:1), por tanto, podemos quedarnos quietos porque Dios será exaltado sobre las naciones (Sal. 46:19). Entonces David repite de nuevo: «Exaltado seas sobre los cielos, oh, Dios; sobre toda la tierra sea tu gloria» (v. 11, LBLA).  Ser rescatado de tus enemigos es bueno, pero no se compara con la presencia del Señor en tu vida. Esta presencia es lo que movió a David a cantar y exaltar a nuestro Señor y lo mismo sucede con nosotros. Cuando hemos probado, cuando hemos saboreado Su bondad y Su misericordia, queremos exaltar Su nombre a todas las naciones y para siempre. 

Todos sabemos que el fin del mundo es algo que eventualmente llegaría. Aunque apostábamos a que este suceso llegaría por medio de una guerra nuclear, o por cualquier barbaridad que los judíos se tiraran, nunca pensamos que sería por una simple avería a causa de un update de los sistemas de Microsoft. En cuanto a Puerto Rico, todas las agencias gubernamentales le andan tirando la mala a Microsoft para salvarse de cualquier crítica. En noticias más agradables venimos con la noticia del apicultor cuya cabeza se convirtió en el hogar de miles de abejas, guerras de mangú entre abogadas dominicanas, Gatúbelas Ecuatorianas, zapatos deportivos feos y candidatos del PPD que andan solos en la vida. Eso y mucho más en este gran episodio de viernes. No te ofendas por lo que aquí hablamos y si te ofendes…¡Bájale 2!

S5-E11, Ever found yourself chuckling at a wedding proposal gone hilariously awry or swapping tales of sticky brewery floors with fellow ale aficionados? Well, you're in for a treat! My mates and I kick back with a couple of choice Irish brews — Solomon's Brewing Company's Irish Gold Ale and Rising River's My Red Heads Ale — and let the laughs flow as freely as the beer. From taste-testing these hoppy delights to sharing a serendipitous moment of generosity with a fellow beer lover, this episode is as much about the joy of good company as it is about the complexities of a fine pint.Now, picture a birthday party that's so stealthily planned, the birthday girl herself nearly misses the signs — that's the kind of shindig we're talking about here. Gat's big day was a surprise of epic proportions, with root beer soup gags, DJ-worthy tunes, and speeches that hit every emotional note. And if pet-owner pandemonium strikes a chord, you'll sympathize with my pre-work doggy debacle. Imagine trying to leave for work only to find a mess that proves life's little surprises aren't always pleasant.Wrapping up, we switch gears from party tales to platefuls, sharing how our culinary adventures with air fryers and instant pots have been game-changers. But let's not forget the brews — our palates dissect the nuances of an Irish red ale that leaves us thoroughly impressed. We also entertain some wildly random topics, from the cost of daily showers to the anatomy of gorillas, proving once again that life is as rich and varied as the beers we love to sip. So come along, grab your favorite mug, and join in on a chat that's as enlightening as it is entertaining. Cheers!Support the showwww.anotherreasontodrink.com

This episode isn't for artists who want to dabble and keep art as a hobby. I so respect your desire to enter and exit the studio whenever you feel like it, but this isn't for you. This isn't even for artists who want to set up a side hustle of selling art here and there to make some extra cash. Again, I respect the fact that you want or need to do that, but what I share here isn't for you. This is for anyone who is serious about building and living the life of an artist. This episode is also for you if other artists ask for your advice about how they can do what you have done. (All you have to do is send them here.) I cover: Why devotion to the work has to come above everything else in your artist life. When you can call yourself an artist. Why you shouldn't be devoted to 1 medium. The first 6 practical business steps: Decide on your professional name. Decide on your business structure. Register your business. Get a tax ID number. Gat a sales tax license. Separate your business and personal finances.
