The Lions are roaring… and Owen Farrell is never boring4 tours of duty.. and the Wallabies are in the crosshairsThe decider countdown is on.. Who's gonna be happy..In Origin 2 the Blues were crappy.. Will they handle the comeback of big Papi.In an age of constant media scrutiny and attention this week our heroes delve into the real reason why Super Gaffa Billy Slater did an Uncle Wayne and recalled an Origin stalwart to bolster the stocks for game 3. Is it disloyalty? Have they departed from the "pick and stick" culture that no one from north of tweed has ever expressed publicly? Or have they just picked a bloke in form in a position that is lacking? The truth is out there and our very own Mulder and Scully get to the bottom of it. We exclusively reveal that prior to his Origin selection Gem Shibasaki was in fact only on a train and trial deal at Red Hill. His selection now giving Dave Donaghy and the Broncos accountants hives with no doubt a hefty rep footy bonus coming his way.And on the world stage we reveal that nepotistic Flanno is vindicated by another coach biasly picking his son. British and Irish Lions coach, League Legend Any Farrell has sent an SOS to his son Owen to join the tour down under. Owen is England's highest ever point scorer, former Captain and this is his fourth Lions tour. This kind of equal alignment with the Dragons situation allows Flanno to flip us all teh bird right?......right???? Dear God if life gives you those kinds of Lemons you just gotta Grapple......
The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 in favor of Montgomery County parents who sued for the right to remove their children from elementary school lessons featuring LGBTQ+ books, overturning the district's policy that had eliminated those opt-out provisions. The landmark decision divided the progressive Maryland suburb and raised concerns about broader implications for curriculum decisions in public schools nationwide.
Next year, transgender teens in Kansas will no longer be able to access puberty blockers and hormone treatments for gender-affirming care. One family in Wichita is worried about navigating the changes. Plus, aircraft manufacturing is a big part of the Kansas economy, but new tariffs by the Trump administration have some companies scrambling.
Our guest on this week's episode is Mark Baxa, president & CEO of The Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals, also known as CSCMP. Earlier this week the supply chain industry lost an icon. Fred Smith was the founder of FedEx – a company that has literally revolutionized the delivery business. Our guest discusses how Fred Smith's vision and business savvy has left lasting impacts on the supply chain industry. Autonomous vehicles continue to see wider adoption while fostering more debates on their safety. Most uses are for robotaxis, with some limited applications for hauling freight. However, this week we saw a rally by Teamsters Union members who lobbied legislators in Massachusetts to pass a state law to require human drivers inside these vehicles. That was a reaction to plans by Waymo — the self-driving car company that is a unit of Google's parent company Alphabet — to start deploying its cars in Massachusetts. Senior Editor Victoria Kickham was in Salt Lake City this week at the SMC3 Connections conference. That's a trucking and supply chain event that takes place each year and draws a crowd of about 500. The conference covered a range of issues, but she says two things really stood out - tariffs/trade and AI. She dives into these two topics in her report.Supply Chain Xchange also offers a podcast series called Supply Chain in the Fast Lane.

The Maroons live to fight another dayCant wait to hear what Woodsy has to say Fort the rest of the Rugby League media, Crow is on the menu And where the hell was Spencer Leniu?Plenty to Grapple with as our heroes digest a significant Queenslands bounceback on a sodden and miserable Optus Stadium, honouring the ‘born for it' nature of freshly minted skipper Cameron Munster. The West ignites in a near sell out, perhaps providing an easily spinnable statistic pertaining to its people being far more than fair weather footy fans.On the field, a far more palatable performance is unpacked, the stars celebrated, the villains reprimanded. In the coaches box are the personal sleights that defined the buildup, and the broader media role in perpetuating stories that inspire players to put themselves on media bans. These are also unpacked, alongside the one stat every journo in the country will lean on throughout the buildup.Because QLD have never won a series after losing game 1 at Lang Park. Just wait for it.And from one showpiece to the next.. the British and Irish Lions will roll out a semblance of a squad for its first few hitouts ahead of the Wallabies tour. Meantime the LA Lakers are up for sale if you have a spare $10 billion USD to throw about, not bad for a club Gerry Buss spent less than $80 mil on back in the late 70's.10 billion good reasons to like, share and subscribe to this completely biased and utterly unbalanced piece of auditory media. Life's a maroon tinged grapple. Dig that shit.

We sometimes forget that no Gentiles (i.e., non-Jewish folks) were present to receive the pouring out of the Holy Spirit during the first Pentecost. To be sure, eventually there would be Gentile followers of the Way of Jesus, and those Gentiles would be baptized with the fire of the Holy Spirit. The story of the Gentile Pentecost teaches us that, despite our perceptions of ourselves, we are not qualified to determine who is and isn't welcome at God's table. This Sunday, we are celebrating Youth Sunday in The Loft. The Grapple youth will participate in worship by leading prayer, reading scripture, and playing with the handbells. We are also excited that three of our graduating high school seniors, Oz, Lauren, and Will, will offer their reflections on the role that Westwood UMC has played in their lives. We hope that you can join us as we celebrate our amazing youth and youth leadership. www.TheLoftLA.org

The Autopsy of the Queensland Corpse will be conducted by Johnny and special guest host Shane Muspratt It's the day after the night before. Our heroes, fresh from an evening that began with confident anticipation and ended with deep, dark depression, have the unenviable task of picking over the bones of another lost Origin.Searching for answers, pouring over replacements, speculating on futures ........but what will they uncover?Perhaps a fiendish plot, an inside job. The long game has been played by an infiltrator who has sabotaged Queensland's junior rep infrastructure.What once was a robust breeding ground of toughness and talent and is now a participation ribbon.This began 10 years or more ago and is only bearing fruit for the insidious infiltrator who dispensed with junior reps, and now our depth is being genuinely challenged for the first time in history ( except for 1995...hey, what happened that year again?) Has Chez played his last game in Maroon?Is tough Tom ready for the task?Can Munster reclaim some magic?Is Cobbo cancelled?Are we looking at another masacre on the western front?all questions asked with very little in the way of actionable answers.It's an all North Queensland Hosting panel this week.... and zero bias evident.On days life this Life is definitely a Grapple... you just gotta dig it

As one of our heroes takes a sabbatical his seat is filled by a special Guest Host.Regaling tales of Paris, Osaka, Suncorp Stadium and nights on the jars with Alf, Luttsy places his feet in the sizable shoes left by Joely.The Origin teams have the rule run over them and surprisingly the consensus of all in the room is QLD victory.Media training for the wayward Broncos shapes as a secondary source of income for our Grapplers with advice on life flowing freely.The PNG experiment is Grappled with and as is customary a physics discussion on the time it takes to move through the earth from any two points on the surface. In lieu of Neil deGrasse-Tyson you'll just have to take out word on the outcome. All this and much much more buffoonery.When life gives you lemons, you have our permission to Grapple.
If your home flooded during hurricane season last year, you may still be recovering from the damage. A lot of neighborhoods flooded as a series of storms impacted the Tampa Bay region- Hurricane Debby, then Helene and soon after that- Milton. And it wasn't just places on the coast.

An overcast Queensland Autumn Tuesday evening , on the roof of a Leagues on Fulcher Road Red Hill, a solitary man cuts a forlorn figure as pulls the cover off a large spot light pointed into the Brisbane sky and grits his teeth as he flips the switch….. he sighs as sparks shoot from the steampunk switch….. a moment of silence and anticipation…almost gives way to concern that the spot light has failed…… after all its been nine months… then with a wurr and a shudder the brilliant beam sets the South East sky alight….. a silhouette that excites every Broncos fan and tells every other fan…we really don't give a shit… The Ezra Sign… and just like his Gotham City counterpart…. Ezra will answer the call.And the heroes will Grapple with it….

As Mendocino County begins the often challenging process of planning next year's budget, a projected $17 million deficit is casting a long shadow. he combination of stagnant revenue and increasing salaries and benefits for county employees is a key driver of the deficit. This combination of stagnant revenues and rising personnel costs is a key driver of the deficit. Adding to the pressure, Pierce noted the discontinuation of several federal public health grants and rural schools funding, further impacting the county's bottom line.

President Donald Trump has vowed to put new tariffs on a variety of goods from other countries. Those are set to go into effect this week, including a 25 percent tariff on imported cars and car parts that's set to begin Thursday. Industry experts say the higher costs will flow to consumers as higher prices for new goods, auto repairs and insurance.Julia Dreier, the deputy commissioner for the Minnesota Department of Commerce, joined Minnesota Now to share how the state is preparing for tariff impacts.
In the Palisades fire, we saw just how critical home fire insurance has become, and how it is the insurer of last resort for a growing number of Californians, as the big insurance companies stop writing new policies and refuse to renew existing ones. The problem is, some of those insured, when they suffer a loss, find out that FAIR does not necessarily cover what they thought it does, and that's led to a growing number of lawsuits against the plan. There was a large class action filed last summer by an Oakland attorney who specializes in these cases, on behalf of thousands of wildfire victims from around the state. Now that same lawyer is representing a couple from the Chico area who are also suing, because they say their home is uninhabitable, ruined by toxic smoke and fumes even though it survived the Park Fire and did not burn down. FAIR says the home is fine and refuses to cover the damage. For more, KCBS Radio news anchor Steve Scott spoke with KCBS political reporter Doug Sovern.
The Department of Justice announced Thursday it will investigate “illegal DEI” in admissions at UCLA, Berkeley, Stanford and UC Irvine.

Labour heavyweight John Prescott's funeral took place yesterday with former Prime Ministers Tony Blair and Gordon Brown leading the tributes. What is Prescott's legacy? And does the current Labour Party have politicians that emulate his appeal? Lucy Dunn speaks to James Heale and former Blair adviser John McTernan about how Prescott was the glue that held Labour together during the Blair-Brown years. Also on the podcast, they discuss the borders and migration bill which Labour published this week. The bill sees the government adopt many measures that they voted against when in opposition. Does this show that Labour have what it takes to tackle immigration? Meanwhile the Conservatives still haven't come to terms with their own legacy on migration, as shown by shadow Foreign Secretary Priti Patel's comments to Talk TV... Produced by Patrick Gibbons.

It's been about three months since Hurricane Helene pummeled the mountains of North Carolina, but its effects are still being felt well beyond the storm's path.
