Send us a textMany times, Fairfax criminal defense lawyer Jon Katz  has quoted this great passage from the Kung Fu television pilot with David Carradine (1972): “Perceive the way of nature and no force of man can harm you. Do not meet a wave head on: avoid it. You do not have to stop force: it is easier to redirect it. Learn more ways to preserve rather than destroy. Avoid rather than check. Check rather than hurt. Hurt rather than maim. Maim rather than kill. For all life is precious nor can any be replaced.” This is an ideal way to master courtroom battle and to handle any conflict. When I learned that Kung Fu's creators Ed Spielman and Howard Friedlander are still alive, I started looking for them to invite them onto my Beat the Prosecution podcast. Hitting deadends in finding their email addresses, I revisited Kung Fu chronicler Herbie J Pilato, who blew me away in accepting my interview invitation within hours. The Kung Fu stand-alone pilot (Kung Fu: The Way of the Tiger, the Sign of the Dragon) blew away the nearly-nine year old me in multiple ways through multiple layers. Here I was learning both the concept and way to pursue a path other than brute force, whether through studying, verbal combat, sports or physical fighting. That is not to say that I was a quick learner, but that the path was now visible and open to me. By now, it all comes together. The wu wei of acting in harmony with the universe's natural flow. The path of zero, with no chasing while fully engaging with the opponent. The cleaning with self identity through Ho'oponopono. Finding internal peace no matter what is happening around me and beyond. Kung Fu's initial creator Ed Spielman did not spearhead this story from an armchair, but instead studied Mandarin at Brooklyn College, and conducted research for instance in New York's Chinatown while also being influenced by Akira Kurosawa's Seven Samurai,  Herbie says" "The show's writers gathered information from Confucius, Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching, Zen Buddhism, and the Old and New Testaments of the Bible, all of which share a similar theme: Gentleness, peace and compassion are of the utmost importance if one is to have a spiritually-sound and happy existence." Herbie sent me his great recent extensive Retro Fan Magazine article "Kung Fu and the Eternal Spring of 'Grasshopper'- A Look Back at TV's Classic Eastern Western."This podcast with Fairfax, Virginia criminal / DUI lawyer Jon Katz is playable on all devices at podcast.BeatTheProsecution.com.

Swainson's Hawks make an incredible journey every year, migrating 12,000 miles round-trip from North America's prairies to Argentina's pampas. What makes them truly unique is their diet. Most hawks hunt rodents and reptiles, but Swainson's Hawks switch to insects, feasting on grasshoppers and locusts in South America. In the 1990s, this diet nearly led to disaster when pesticides in Argentina killed over 20,000 hawks in two years. But a successful international conservation effort saved them.More info and transcript at BirdNote.org.Want more BirdNote? Subscribe to our weekly newsletter.

What if your business banking clients could ask a question, in plain English, and get an instant, intelligent answer? No spreadsheets. No manual reports. Just the client, their data, and AI working together. It sounds like science fiction, but it's happening right now. Grasshopper Bank has become the first U.S. bank to enable customers to connect their business banking data directly to Anthropic's Claude AI assistant, and the implications are staggering. We're joined on the Banking Transformed podcast by two visionaries who made it happen: Chris Tremont, Chief Digital Officer, and Pete Chapman, CTO of Grasshopper Bank. They'll reveal how they built a secure bridge between banking and artificial intelligence, why they raced to be first, and what this means for every banking organization in America. This is the conversation where the future of banking gets written. The companies that understand this shift will thrive. Those who don't will be left behind.

Many communities face an uneven food landscape: plenty of cheap junk food, but few places to buy fresh, healthy food. This pattern—often called “food apartheid”—doesn't happen by accident; it grows from redlining, unfair rules, and corporate control. The impacts are steep: higher rates of type 2 diabetes, kidney failure, and learning problems in Black, Latino, and Indigenous communities, along with unsafe conditions for farmworkers. These harms have a long history, and government subsidies and convincing marketing keep ultraprocessed foods on top. However, we take practical steps to make change including investing in regenerative and community farms, protecting and fairly paying farmworkers, and enforcing civil-rights laws so public dollars support real food, healthy soil, and communities that thrive. In this episode, Leah Penniman, Dr. Rupa Marya, Raj Patel, Karen Washington, and I discuss why food injustices exist and how we can create regenerative food systems to serve everyone. Leah Penniman is a Black Kreyol educator, farmer/peyizan, author, and food justice activist from Soul Fire Farm in Grafton, NY. She co-founded Soul Fire Farm in 2010 with the mission to end racism in the food system and reclaim our ancestral connection to land. As co-Executive Director, Leah is part of a team that facilitates powerful food sovereignty programs - including farmer training for Black & Brown people, a subsidized farm food distribution program for communities living under food apartheid, and domestic and international organizing toward equity in the food system. Leah has been farming since 1996, holds an MA in Education and a BA in Environmental Science from Clark University, and is a Manye (Queen Mother) in Vodun.  Dr. Rupa Marya is a physician, activist, mother, and composer. She is an Associate Professor of Medicine at the University of California, San Francisco where she practices and teaches Internal Medicine. Her research examines the health impacts of social systems, from agriculture to policing. She is a co-founder of the Do No Harm Coalition, a collective of health workers committed to addressing disease through structural change. At the invitation of Lakota health leaders, she is currently helping to set up the Mni Wiconi Health Clinic and Farm at Standing Rock in order to decolonize medicine and food.  Raj Patel is a Research Professor at the University of Texas at Austin's Lyndon B Johnson School of Public Affairs, a professor in the University's department of nutrition, and a Research Associate at Rhodes University, South Africa. He is the author of Stuffed and Starved, the New York Times bestselling The Value of Nothing, co-author of A History of the World in Seven Cheap Things. A James Beard Leadership Award winner, he is the co-director of the award-winning documentary about climate change and the food system, The Ants & The Grasshopper.  Karen is a farmer, activist, and food advocate. She is the Co-owner and Farmer at Rise & Root Farm in Chester, New York. In 2010, Karen Co-Founded Black Urban Growers (BUGS), an organization supporting growers in both urban and rural settings. In 2012, Ebony magazine voted her one of the 100 most influential African Americans in the country, and in 2014 Karen was the recipient of the James Beard Leadership Award. Karen serves on the boards of the New York Botanical Gardens, SoulFire Farm, the Mary Mitchell Center, Why Hunger, and Farm School NYC. This episode is brought to you by BIOptimizers.

In der 310. Ausgabe der «Dritten Halbzeit» geht es um die sonderbaren Young Boys. Nach zuletzt zwei Siegen folgte am Wochenende ein deutliches 0:5 beim FC Lausanne-Sport, bei dem das Team mal wieder Rätsel aufgab. Was läuft falsch bei den Bernern oder würde ein Wechsel auf der Trainerposition die Probleme lösen? Oder muss man sogar noch weiter oben ansetzen, damit das Team sein Potenzial dauerhaft abrufen kann?Deutlich positiver sieht es bei den Grasshoppers aus, die das Zürcher Derby gegen den FCZ mit 3:0 gewinnen. Mit einem jungen Team, einer solidarischen Leistung und einer klar erkennbaren Handschrift des neuen Trainers. Also im Grunde all das, was der FC Zürich auch gern wäre, von dem der Club unter Sportchef Milos Malenovic aber aktuell mal wieder weit entfernt scheint.Die Themen:00:00 Intro01:22 Wir lagen falsch!07:33 YB geht 0:5 unter21:49 Lausanne macht Spass25:52 GC hat einen Plan41:21 Otele, Hitz & Shaqiri in Topform50:03 Winterthur im freien Fall56:49 Thun überzeugt weiter01:04:03 Der Heim-Fluch des FCL In der Dritten Halbzeit wird über den Schweizer Fussball diskutiert.

This week, in Grasshopper Junction, Arizona, a man tries to have a morning coffee, with his friends, who run the town's only restaurant, but discovers a bloody mess of a scene, with their brutally murdered bodies. At the same time, a pair of brothers, on the run from the law in Alabama, lead police on a chase, through the desert, throwing weapons out the window, as they flee. When they're caught, the items in their car tell an awful, and bloodthirsty story!!   Along the way, we find out that some towns entire populations can be wiped out, in a single act, that if you decide to stay overnight, in Kingman, Arizona, you're probably up to no good, and that after you murder some people, you might want to at least wipe their brain matter off your shirt, before going out in public!!   New episodes, every Wednesday & Friday nights!!

In this episode, Jakob shares his journey from working in logistics and warehouse automation to founding Grasshopper Air Mobility in 2023, driven by a vision for sustainable, autonomous aerial mobility. Initially inspired by flying cars for commuters, he and his team pivoted to cargo operations after recognizing the steep certification costs and barriers facing passenger eVTOLs. Jakob reflects on key industry lessons and the company's strategy to leverage off-the-shelf, certified components rather than developing everything in-house. The company is firmly committed to sustainability, with a focus on electric and hybrid-hydrogen propulsion and ultra-quiet ducted fan technology. Looking ahead, Grasshopper is targeting certification between 2030–2031, with scaled prototypes beginning as early as 2026. Jakob also discusses the challenges of regulation, infrastructure integration, funding, and the importance of public acceptance for advanced air mobility to succeed globally.

You'll be surprised to know. Ants and Trilliums - there is a relationship there. Wasps and timber steps = stings for Matt. Jack tells the same 13 stories over and over.  This comes right in the middle of a conversation about almond pollination. What is creating seasonal allergies at this time of the year?  The trio play "Imagine If You Will" and become bees.  3 of 1500 brothers and sisters. Speaking of bees, they dominate the second half of the first part of the show.  You'll come away with some knowledge..."Sweet swelling..."Bee food: zinnia, perennial geranium, sedum, coneflower, daisies, lavender, bee balm and golden rod are all some of the last meals for the bees before winter. Nanoscale ridges...WHAT!?Moths get their time in the spotlight.  They are wonderful pollinators and do not get enough credit. How do they see at night? Emily McFarland and her spider features.Pollination by lawn machine and pollination by GMC are giggled about. Building a bee hive features on Tips For Success From The Growing Season. Nuc's and what they are start the conversation off. Albert Einstein and his theories cap the show off. Tune in.
