John Graham graduated from college with no real training, no direction, and no one to help him. As a result, he went through eight career detours, moving from state to state, feeling helpless, alone, and not knowing what to do or where to go much of the time.   It was not until he and his wife committed to helping others who were struggling more they were and founded Good Samaritan Home that he found his place and a sense of purpose.     John Graham had gone from homelessness, a series of career restarts over the years, to a business owner and a published author. He was a door-to-door salesman, children's home counselor, substitute schoolteacher, truck driver, fireman, building contractor, minister, and journalist. At 75, he published his debut novel called Running As Fast As I Can, which had been rejected nearly 200 times. John is familiar with second, third, and fourth chances that many of us need to reach our goals. It is in developing what he calls calloused hands and a tender heart, along the journey.     Click HERE to buy book     For Fans of WHERE THE CRAWDADS SING, A LITTLE LIFE, and FORREST GUMP "... often profound historical novel. Our verdict: GET IT!" - KIRKUS REVIEWS Growing up in the mill slums of Pittsburgh, Daniel Robinson was a punching bag for his drunken father, ignored by his mentally ill mother, and trapped in the grip of poverty. He's finally freed from the torture of that home, only to crash land in another hell when he's abused by the pastor who takes him in. Daniel escapes once again, spending the next decade wandering homeless throughout the country during the turbulent 1960s. On his journey, he gets caught up in the hippie drug invasion in San Francisco, racial violence in Cleveland and Detroit, and especially a deadly anti-war protest at Kent State. Daniel finally finds love with someone who was running from her own demons. Together, they get a second chance at happiness and the family they both want. Because of his experience on the street, Daniel is offered a job helping men coming from prison. When asked to find housing for Charles Vickers, a black man who spent twenty years in prison for a rape that Daniel is convinced he never committed, he and his wife open their own home to him. This enrages the community, especially when a local girl disappears. Violence erupts—with Daniel as the focus of their rage. Should he stay and fight for Charles—and put his family at risk, or run away again? RUNNING AS FAST AS I CAN is an unforgettable, multi-award-winning story about overcoming childhood abuse and the generational trauma of poverty to find love, forgiveness, and redemption. Daniel's story, with its harrowing social themes conveyed through an intense personal odyssey, vividly portrays a traumatic period in our history, while grappling with intense emotional and social issues we still face today.   CONNECT WITH JOHN HERE Website Good Samaritan Home Website Personal Amazon Substack Instagram Facebook

Send us a textIf you've ever had a student say, “I'm just not a math person”, you know how powerful that belief can be. Math identity—how students see themselves in relation to math—can either open the door to learning or slam it shut. In this episode of Math Chat Podcast, we explore how to shift those fixed beliefs by reframing what math is and who it's for.The Word Problem Workshop (WPW) framework is designed to help all learners engage in problem-solving at their own pace. You'll learn how the “Grapple” step invites productive struggle, the “Share” step encourages diverse strategies, and the “Reflect” step solidifies understanding. This structure turns mistakes into learning moments and makes math a place where every student can shine.

Roll on, roll on, the footy is rolling into a new phase of wild interpretationKevs gone from the outhouse to the hopping heart of the nationFrizelle gives Des the ultimate lack of endorsementSo constable hasler might look for a gig back where it all started… in law enforcementThis week our heroes grapple with the questions that are tugging on your shirt and curl us during those lonely week nights trying to drift off to slumber. Questions like “ was Des really a police officer?” “ What school did the fella who photographed Jack Ruby assassinating Lee Hervey Oswald go to?” and “how many pages would constitute a 3 game coaching contract?”Once our two warriors for justice are done mopping up the answers of those singeing queries, in their spare time no less, they will draw a line in the sand…… by trying to locate the lines already drawn in the sand by the NRL Rules Crackdown Committee (committee  may or may not exist).  To avoid these multiple lines the sand being washed away by the tide or turned into  phallic shapes they have founded a review board. Largely (but not entirely) incorruptible, and based on honour, code and duty. The KLIEN AND MISCONDUCT COMMISSION . The KMC will review the reviews of rules reviews. Reviewing and interpreting interpretations and recommending recommendations….. all in the sport of growing the game. Grow our audience, tell your friends.Life's a Grapple … and then the KMC is on your case. Cue Law and Order sound effect 

Recently, I read an article about how our attitude depends on what we eat and when we eat, as it has major impact on our performance and moods. We have heard often, "you are what you eat," according to Dr. Jack Grapple, a well known nutrition and fitness expert, he tells us how to have a better attitude. He states that we need to remember what your mother said about breakfast. Don't skip it. Grapple says no ifs, ands, and buts... eat breakfast. Breakfast is most important. He tells us why it is so important. "After a good night's sleep, your body is nearly devoid of glucose or blood sugar you need to replenish when you eat a proper breakfast, your cognitive abilities, your energy and your attitude are better. Cereals and grains are good, and even a little fat is okay." He tells us that eating for attitude and energy is a day long project. The rule, according to Grapple, is simple: eat four or five small meals, not three big meals - a hearty breakfast, lunch and dinner is old thinking. To keep your metabolism up, your blood sugar from dropping and yourself energized, you need to eat a small breakfast, a healthy mid morning snack, a small dinner and a healthy snack. He even suggests certain foods for certain times of the day. For energy in the afternoon, for example, many people opt for a light lunch, like a salad. This is one of the worst things you can do, because when you eat carbohydrates, your body releases an amino acid called tritopan. "That amino acid," he says, "triggers a hormone that has a relaxing effect, not good if you have a busy afternoon planned, select a chicken sandwich on rye bread and skip the mayonnaise." He says the protein causes the release of amino acid tyrosine, another big word with the simple meaning energy. And what about that late night snack? Carbohydrates make you feel calm if you have to eat late eat carbohydrates, he concludesl. Did you expect another Warm Thoughts column on attitudes? Thanks to Dr Jack grapple, a very well known nutrition and fitness expert, on the subject. I'd love to discuss this a little more with him. Yes, you guessed it, just over a cup of tea. Warm thoughts: The remarkable thing is, we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for the day. We cannot change the past. We cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and this is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me, and 90% how I react to it. And so it is with you. We are in charge of our attitudes.

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......

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.  It is co-produced with the Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals.

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

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.

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.

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.
