It got me thinking that I really want to start something with my Legacy Fiber Artz minis from previous year advents. Maybe a Granny Stripe blanket? Or perhaps another Recollections crochet blanket. I made one in the summer of 2022 (check out my Ravelry Project Page). It uses fingering weight yarn held triple and treble crochets. You work each row right to left and cut each time. between each set of clusters you use a main color. Debating using Fibernymph 10g minis from last year's advent for those rows (notes say it used- about 8g per row but that's held triple which might just be too annoying). I'm debating making a smaller blanket that will live on the backseat of my car, draped over. Mostly for the pop of color with my gray interior but I bet the kids would use it when they're back there. I'd also like to make a crocheted granny square tank top for the summer so I could potentially use some of my minis for that. Do you have any ideas for me?   From the Armchair   The Wandering Purl YouTube channel- I have a Gilmore Girls sock sized bag from Bethany and I know lots of you are fans of her, but I didn't realize she had a channel!  Enjoying her content, check it out. White Lotus- Season 3: it was a slow burn of a season with some seriously cringy content but I loved how the finale came together.   Note: Some links are listed as Amazon Affiliate Links.

Katy Jeter talks with Hanover Hospital & Clinics' Aubrie Schaefer about an upcoming health fair that is taking place on Saturday, April 5th.

It's hard to believe we've reached the middle of the season. (Be sure to check out IL's Midseason All-Americans.) Who would have guessed that last week's three Big Ten road underdogs would end up in first place in the Big Ten? That Maryland and Hopkins would lose at home to .500 ball clubs? The thing that makes sports so great is that anything can happen, and that is why they play the games. It sets up another exciting weekend of action, and D-Fly & Dixie are here to get you ready.  This year, Inside Lacrosse is proud to partner with the NCAA to offer you, our loyal listeners, $5 off all single-day ticket options (men and women) by using the code ILPOD at checkout. So head to NCAA.com/LaxTickets and enter ILPOD at checkout to purchase your tickets. You know you're going to go to Championship Weekend, so why not get $5 off and help us show the NCAA how awesome our listeners are by purchasing your tickets today. This week's guest is Dartmouth senior standout, attackman Colin McGill. McGill and the Big Green have been turning heads this season and it's time to give them their flowers. Ahead of the big game vs. Princeton, the guys talk about Dartmouth's terrific 7-1 start, the culture change in Hanover, getting a validating win at Penn, Malvern Prep lacrosse, moving up the Big Green all-time scoring list, who makes the best rack of lamb in New Hampshire and much, much more. WEEKEND PREVIEW Five Top 20 matchups to highlight this week's schedule, and the start times are noon, noon, noon, noon and 1 p.m. So don't plan any yard work during that noon to 3 p.m. window on Saturday. SATURDAY No. 5 North Carolina (7-1) at No. 9 Army (7-1), noon, ESPN+ A big game, slightly soured by Army's loss last week. Army is in dire need of a quality win. No. 4 Princeton (5-2, 1-1 Ivy) at No. 18 Dartmouth (7-1, 1-0), noon, ESPN+ Princeton has won nine straight in this series, including a 15-5 win last season in the Garden State.  No. 11 Duke (8-2) at No. 7 Notre Dame (4-2), noon, ESPNU Coming off a bye week, the Fighting Irish welcome Duke to Arlotta Stadium. Duke is looking to bounce back from its head-scratching loss to Denver. ND has won six straight in the series with ND beating Duke twice in each of the last three years. No. 6 Penn State (6-2, 0-1 B1G) at No. 2 Maryland (7-1, 0-1), noon, Big Ten Network The Border War between two teams that just do not like each other. Historically, Maryland has dominated this rivalry. No. 14 Johns Hopkins (6-3, 0-1 B1G) at No. 19 Michigan (5-4, 1-0), 1 p.m. Hopkins has had a lot of success against Michigan, winning 11-of-13 matchups all time against Michigan, but the Wolverines got a leg up last year 10-7 in the B1G Tournament. JHU won the regular season matchup, 15-11. In this week's garden-themed Give & Go, the guys talk about spring landscaping, flowers, the unwanted wrath of the home owners' association and more.

3-11-25 Tonight we're hanging out with Jason Elder, a home mead maker from Kansas City. His name shows up regularly on the comp results, and I can confirm he makes some pretty ‘ok' mead. Jason has been homebrewing in Kansas City since 2010 and started making Mead and Cider in 2016. He wanted to broaden his brewing experience and found that his love for making mead was higher than for making beer. He's won awards at several competitions such as NHC and Mazer Cup. He's considered the "Honey person" for Kansas City as since he has over 2000lbs of honey in storage and about 110 different varieties. He loves talking and drinking anything mead and enjoys mentoring people that are new to mead and are interested in making it for themselves. Jason is a BJCP Judge in Beer, Mead and Cider and is also a proctor for Cider exams. Jason was President of the Kansas City Bier Meisters for 2 years as well as an officer on their board for 2 years before that. He has also been the First Round site organizer in Kansas City for the past 5 years as well as part of the Mazer Cup staff for the past 2 years. He believes that he brings a unique perspective from his experience and knowledge along with a flair from the Plains! Join us to chat with Jason and talk mead!

THANK YOU PATRONS OF THE PODCAST! Lads, lasses, and leprechauns of good taste—have I told you lately that you're absolutely legendary? You are the heartbeat of this podcast, the reason I spend my days swimming in Celtic tunes instead of, I dunno, training for a competitive Guinness - drinking contest (which I'd obviously win). And it's all thanks to you. Your support isn't just appreciated—it's the very thing that keeps this show from running on sheer luck and leftover whiskey fumes. You fund our genius sound engineer (who makes me sound like I actually know what I'm doing), the wizardly graphic designer, the tirelessly dedicated Celtic Music Magazine editor, and the promotional magic that spreads this music farther than a wandering Irish storyteller. Your generosity buys the music you love and gives me the time to carefully craft each episode—rather than just chucking in a tin whistle solo and hoping for the best. And as a patron, you're not just supporting the show—you're practically knighted by the Celtic music gods themselves. You get exclusive, ad - free, music - only episodes before anyone else (because you're fancy like that). You help shape the Celtic Top 20 with your votes. You unlock free music downloads, sheet music, and your very own private feed to listen your way—whether through Patreon or your favorite podcast app. All this for just $3 a month. That's right—less than the cost of one fancy coffee (or roughly 0.003% the cost of a pint in Dublin on St. Patrick's Day). And yet, that tiny sum keeps the music alive, keeps the community thriving, and keeps you at the very heart of it all. So join us today! Let's keep this music going forever—or at least until we all get distracted by a parade and a questionable amount of irish whiskey.

Transcript:Hello! This is Pastor Don of the Christ Redeemer Church of Hanover, NH. Welcome to a special edition of The Kingdom Perspective. I want to invite you to join us in a very strategic missions' opportunity that's happening right here in the heart of the Upper Valley through the ministry of Christ Redeemer. From the beginning, Christ Redeemer has sought to be a church for others. We want everyone, all our friends and neighbors and people from every nation, to experience the grace and glory of Christ! God has blessed this pursuit, not only growing a church of nearly 400-persons in Hanover but also sending out over 1,000 people touched by the gospel to every corner of the globe. Likewise, Christ Redeemer has sought to be a church for other churches. In our 25-year history we have trained and sent over 40 ministry interns and dozens of preachers. We've planted two churches, even helping other churches purchase their own buildings! Also, we've resourced multiple other churches, helping several stay alive during the pandemic with coaching and pulpit supply. And we've done all this without a building of our own! Doing church out of box for over 1,200 Sundays! We've wandered from place to place, meeting both indoors and outdoors.  But now, Christ Redeemer has a strategic opportunity. After a long hard legal struggle, we are now the first new church approved for a building in this Ivy League town in over 60 years! Would you help us make this dream a reality? Would you help us establish a “permanent presence” that will not only strengthening our roots, but also extend the reach of the gospel? We need partners like you to give and spread the news of this opportunity far and wide. Please visit christredeemerchurch.org/flourish or go to our website. Thanks! And God bless! “Now the Lord said to Abram, ‘Go from your country and your kindred and your father's house to the land that I will show you. And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you and make your name great, so that you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and him who dishonors you I will curse, and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.'”~Genesis 12:1-3 (ESV) “Now the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had directed them. And when they saw him they worshiped him, but some doubted. And Jesus came and said to them, ‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.'”~Matthew 28:16-20 (ESV) “So when they had come together, they asked him, ‘Lord, will you at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?' He said to them, ‘It is not for you to know times or seasons that the Father has fixed by his own authority. But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.'”~Acts 1:6-8 (ESV)

Transcript:Hello! This is Pastor Don of the Christ Redeemer Church of Hanover, NH. Welcome to a special edition of The Kingdom Perspective. Christ Redeemer has a strategic opportunity before us. We are now the first new church approved for a building in this Ivy League town in over 60 years! This has not come without challenge and difficulty. For over 20 years we sifted through dozens of properties trying to find something suitable for our growing congregation. Every time, we were constrained by something, legal or otherwise. Then God surprised us by giving us a spacious 9-acre parcel of land, strategically located right between the Ivy League institutions of Dartmouth College and Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center. Sadly though, our attempt for zoning approval on this property led us into a seven-year legal struggle, but this culminated in a landmark victory at the New Hampshire Supreme Court. The court unanimously affirmed our right to build, giving us the green light to establish a permanent presence for Christ! Now, our pressing need is for construction funds. The seven-year legal delay was, not only expensive, but also burdened us with increased building costs. Therefore, we are seeking partners to help us actualize this dream. Would you join us by supporting this effort and spreading the word about his historic opportunity? Our story is one of God's faithfulness and perseverance, and our future holds untold potential for global influence. Please visit christredeemerchurch.org/flourish. Thanks! And God bless! “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.  “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.  “Blessed are you when others revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.  “You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled under people's feet.  “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.”~Matthew 5:9-16 (ESV)

Transcript:Hello! This is Pastor Don of the Christ Redeemer Church of Hanover, NH. Welcome to a special edition of The Kingdom Perspective. May I invite you to participate in one of the most strategic mission opportunities I know of? That opportunity is happening right here in Hanover. When my wife and I moved here 25 years ago we came here for two reasons. The first was the greatness of the need. New England was one of the most unchurched parts of the country, with less than 2% having any substantive connection to a gospel preaching church. Hanover was surely even lower than that. Missiologists classify such a place as an “unreached people group”. Second, we came here because we knew the strategic nature of this Ivy League community. People come here from all over the world to study and work, and then they go back to all over the world! So, we came here out of the love for the people of this place, as well as confidence that the gospel of Jesus Christ had the power to transform lives, not only in the Upper Valley but even to the ends of the earth. And that's exactly what God has done. In the past 25 years, God has not only grown a church of nearly 400 people, but he has also sent out over a 1,000 that have been touched by that gospel to every corner of the globe. Christ Redeemer Church now has an historic opportunity to establish a permanent presence for the gospel in this strategic place. After a long and difficult legal struggle, we are now the first new church approved by Hanover for a building in over 60 years! We are looking for partners to join in this effort. Would you please consider networking with us to get the word out, and would you consider a gift to make this dream a reality? Please visit our website at christredeemerchurch.org/flourish. Thanks! And God bless! “Now when Jesus came into the district of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, ‘Who do people say that the Son of Man is?' And they said, ‘Some say John the Baptist, others say Elijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets.' He said to them, ‘But who do you say that I am?' Simon Peter replied, ‘You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.' And Jesus answered him, ‘Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven. And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.' Then he strictly charged the disciples to tell no one that he was the Christ.”~Matthew 16:13-20 (ESV)

Colonel Winton ‘Dip' Spiller comes to the podcast via a connection with Paul's dad Larry (Episode 9). Colonel Winton Spiller was born in Hanover, Virginia and grew up in the Richmond area, mostly on a farm in Henrico County. They talked about how he got his nickname Dip, what his schedule was like growing up on a farm and him remembering when they first got a television. Dip graduated high school and went to Virginia Tech and was in the Corps of Cadets. They discussed his likes and dislikes about being in the Corps at VaTech and how he became active duty United States Army after he graduated in 1960. Dip and Paul spoke about his thirty year career in the U.S. Army which included two tours of duty in Vietnam during the war. They discussed his progression through the ranks, his times in Vietnam as well as some of his state side assignments. They finished by talking about his four sons and his grandchildren.

Fritz Haarmann, the infamous "Butcher of Hanover," was one of Germany's most prolific serial killers, luring young men and boys to their deaths between 1918 and 1924. His gruesome method of murder—biting through his victims' throats—earned him the nickname "The Vampire of Hanover," while rumors swirled that he sold human meat on the black market. Protected for years by his status as a police informant, Haarmann was finally exposed after human bones flooded the Leine River, leading to his arrest, trial, and execution, but his crimes left a lasting stain on German history, particularly for the gay community, which faced intensified persecution in the years that followed.

Research (Dr. Elliot Stephens) has shown that there are three factors that affect attrition on the mission field: interpersonal skills, ministry competency and spiritual formation. Agencies can train for skills, but it's these softer skills that are often neglected at higher levels of Christian education. Ed Scheuerman built his program at Lancaster Bible College largely in response to this research. Listen in as Ted Esler, Matthew Ellison, and Ed Scheuerman discuss trends in higher Christian education as it relates to missions and mentoring the current generation of students. After getting his BA in Philosophy (with an emphasis in Religious Studies) from West Chester University (PA), Ed completed one year of formal Bible training, taking 42 hours of Bible and Missions classes at Tennessee Temple University in 1985. In 1986, he completed his MA in TESL from WCU. In December 2007, he completed his Doctorate of Missiology degree from Biola University. He was ordained by Calvary Bible Church in Hanover, PA. Ed and his wife Carol served with PIONEERS, International, in Southeast Asia for 23 years. They served in China for nearly seven years (starting in 1987), teaching and ministering at a university. Their work was primarily with their students, discipling those who came to faith. They were then based in Hong Kong for four years (1994-1998) as a support link to the in-China team. In 1997, Ed was asked to assume the role of Area Leader for South Asia / Mainland Southeast Asia (shepherding the teams from Vietnam to India). The family relocated to Chiang Mai, Thailand. The Area Leader role was primarily a pastoral role, shepherding church planting teams. While there, Ed also became involved in various member care ministries. In May 2010, Ed was recruited by Lancaster Bible College to be the Coordinator of the Intercultural Studies major. His book, Knowing God to Make Him Known: Living out the Attributes of God Cross-Culturally” was published in 2021 and is used by churches and missions agencies to help train potential missionaries. His passion is to help students find and follow God's call for their lives in the cause for world missions. The Mission Matters Podcast is a place to talk about the importance of our Mission as Christians. The Mission Matters is a partnership of Missio Nexus and Sixteen:Fifteen, who have a shared passion to mobilize God's people to be a part of His mission.

Have you ever told yourself "I'm not creative enough" to solve a business challenge? In this episode, Melissa guides female leaders and mom founders through a powerful meditation practice designed to break free from limiting beliefs about creativity. Through a combination of mindfulness techniques and guided reflection, you'll: Learn how to identify and challenge creativity-limiting beliefs Experience a body scan meditation for releasing tension Practice reframing negative thoughts about your creative abilities Discover how to access your natural problem-solving capabilities Transform your relationship with creativity and innovation The episode includes a practical meditation exercise you can use whenever you face a business challenge requiring creative solutions. Melissa shares personal stories, including her experience in business school and conversations with her son about creativity, to illustrate how we can expand our definition of what it means to be creative. Connect with Melissa: melissa.llarena [at] gmail.com About your host Melissa Llarena of the Mom Founder Imagination Hub podcast I'm a meditation practitioner and #1 Amazon bestselling author who has spent years peering into the minds of marketers and executives, both as one of them and as their trusted guide. My articles in ForbesWomen have reached over 4 million readers, but what really lights me up is the deep work I do with people who, like me, have spent years shape-shifting to succeed. My own journey through the corporate world – 10 years at powerhouses like Ogilvy (working on IBM) and P&G (yes, even Charmin!) – taught me firsthand about wearing different hats across 14+ business functions. For the past 13 years, I've had the privilege of coaching over 200 marketing and advertising executives worldwide, having raw, honest conversations about what it really costs us to morph ourselves every single day. When I'm hosting the Mom Founder Imagination Hub podcast, I get to dive deep with remarkable leaders like Beth Comstock and GaryVee, exploring how to tap into our most overlooked superpower: imagination. My psychology degree from NYU, Dartmouth MBA, and Transformational Coaching certification gave me the foundation, but it was the pandemic that showed me – and my clients – that we needed something more. In 2021, when ambition felt impossible and imagination seemed out of reach, I realized we were all exhausted from trying to power through. That's when I took a leap – pausing my coaching practice to write a book filled with soul-searching questions, while earning my meditation certification from the Jack Kornfield organization. Now, I blend all these pieces – my corporate insider experience, thousands of honest conversations, and meditation wisdom – into workshops, sessions, and immersions that truly connect. Using imaginative meditation, mindfulness practices that even the most restless executives love, and revealing journaling exercises, I help people find their way back to themselves. Because here's what I know: when we stop losing ourselves every time life or business throws us a curveball, we can finally use our energy for what really matters – creating the impact we're meant to make. TRANSCRIPT   Hello there. This is Melissa, your host behind the mom founder imagination hub podcast. This unedited episode is really geared towards any mom or female leader who has a business challenge that they must overcome with greater creativity. Someone who is seeking to find the inner innovator that. Maybe she once had once felt, but has been struggling to bring back to the forefront. My intention is for you to feel empowered. My intention is for you to feel creative enough to solve whatever you're facing. Business challenge you wish to solve this very week. Now you may not know this, but over the last 13 years, I have coached female leaders who have shared their deepest, darkest, innermost secrets, such as why they actually leave different organizations or bosses or teams, or the things that they wish they could have done. Done. Had they been given the ability to speak up or the ability to step up, you name it, I've heard it. And with these ideas in mind, I wanted to just bring forth this one limiting belief that I heard consistently in my line of work, career coaching, female leaders, primarily in the advertising and marketing function. And it was this,  this idea that I'm not creative, or I don't see myself as a creative person. The idea that whatever it is to be a creative is something that is impossible to achieve, to be, if I wasn't originally hired. on literally the creative team, oftentimes from an agency perspective. And so I want to help guide you through a meditation, also a little bit of a journaling exercise so that you can reestablish your relationship with this idea that you are creative, you get to be creative, and it is through your creativity that you can actually solve some problems. So let's go into this idea of thinking that you're really good at something. For me, I remember being in business school. It could have been maybe like the first week where I was in a group of, I think it was like four of us and we had an opportunity to review one another's resumes and I remember at this time. time before I became a career coach before I was, you know, also designated by the career development office at Tuck business school as a career coach of sorts. I knew that I was really good. Good at helping people promote their skills, their relationships, their abilities, their desires. And so I really stepped up. I remember being on a picnic table in Hanover. It was a sunny summer day, which is pretty unusual because it starts snowing. I think like the end of September in New Hampshire, but it was a beautiful sunny day and we were looking at one another's resumes and I just felt really good. I spoke. up. I had very strong opinions pertaining to ways that my peers should articulate their wins, their experiences. And to kind of quote Sheryl Sandberg, I was like totally leaning in to that experience. So that was something that I was clearly. Good at, and I felt like I could speak up then of course, for you, like there has to be maybe even in recent memory where there's something that you're really fricking  good at. And you may have had your own inner source of confidence to speak up, raise your hand, share your area of expertise. And it is in that spirit with that. Energy that I would love, love, love during this episode to remind you that you get to feel that way about your creativity and your sense of innovativeness. And you get to feel as much as a contributor to a creative challenge as anyone else on your team or in your surroundings. So I'll give you a chance to kind of, you know, really think through that moment when you felt super, super confident, and I will give you an opportunity to do so in a very mindful way, but I just want to caveat this. Right now, I am going to overtly ask you to become aware of a situation where you felt so confident. And as much as I would like to be almost like Jiminy Cricket in your back pocket and remind you how you do have these moments,  in regular life, this is challenging. And oftentimes, We forget. And so I would invite you even from like a career perspective. This is just like a pro tip here, but even from a career perspective, as tactically as your resume, make sure that you have at least one of a story or a moment that you just love to freaking tell related to something that you believe you're really good at and why might that be important because God knows You are nervous during a job interview. So I would encourage you, or even like a pitch, if you own a business. So I would encourage you to have that quote unquote Easter egg, at least one of them on your resume. So now let's just take a moment to reflect. So take an opportunity  to sit comfortably.  You might be on the floor.  You might be on a chair.  You might even lie down.  I encourage you to just take a chance to breathe in  and breathe out  and just be present  to think of one of those moments  when you were doing something because you knew  that you were really, really good at it.  I'll give you a moment to think this through  and keep breathing in.  Now, if you're new to meditating or considering this idea of taking a mindful pause and just focusing on the breath,  that was just a minute.  Now there's no competition. We're not going for some sort of endurance here, but I just want to share with you the short period of time  that it took for you to reflect mindfully.  about one of those moments when you did something that you felt you were good at.  And I say that because you can always return to a good memory  throughout the day  as you encounter moments that are a little harder to wrap your mind around.  Okay. So hold that moment in your pocket. Not so much like Jiminy Cricket, but please do hold that moment in your pocket  because  That moment symbolizes that there are so many things that you just don't bring to the top of your mind that serve as reminders of the skills and qualities that you bring to the table. And sometimes it's just hard to constantly recall those upon command. But as I showed you right now, you were able to do so just by returning. To your breath  now  as it relates to something that you may not feel as much confidence in  these thoughts are Really? What what we call fear based or fear driven  beliefs  and The insight here is  that they're not always true just because you think it  Just because you repeat it, just because other people think it and repeat it about you,  it doesn't necessarily mean that it's true  all the time in every instance.  Now,  constructive criticism is a wonderful thing. People say it's a gift, but I gotta be honest, I rather other things.  But net net,  the point I want to make here is that,  You can actually take a fear based or fear driven belief.  and reframe it or change it in a way that pulls you towards a desired goal.  And therein lies the practice of mindfulness in the simple awareness, almost like you're a Third person looking at a scene where you're giving yourself a little distance between the belief, the thought or emotion. And you're also opening up the opportunity for you to respond, instead of just knee jerk react, right?  And so let's play with this idea.  Let's imagine that in third grade, you had some sort of drawing that in your mind, you thought was some amazing Picasso, but in your teacher's mind, she just thought it was just not cool. I don't even have a bad thing. I want to say about a third graders drawing, but let's just imagine she didn't put it up on the hallways. So didn't get like the,  the attention that you would have hoped.  In her opinion, your art was not so wonderful. In your opinion, in that moment, you thought it was really beautiful.  And isn't it interesting? Because it is you who carries that thought. in your mind for a long time thereafter that moment.  And so, because you have your teacher's criticism or you have your own thoughts about how creative that drawing was,  that would have informed your idea of what it was to be creative. That would have informed your thinking around whether you were creative. And this could be something that has happened decades ago, but it's something that maybe you've heard.  on repeat in your mind from that single instance, right? And so I want to just offer you the opportunity. If you have a creative challenge upfront that you want to solve this week, I just want to invite you to give yourself the best fricking chance you could possibly give yourself and not count yourself out. Just because some third grade teacher said, Your artwork sucked. When it comes to creativity, I want to share with you this story. I was having lunch or some meal with one of my kids and my son was like, Creative? I'm not creative. When I think of creativity, I just think of paint brushes. And so I had that conversation with him and I said, Wait a minute.  You are so inquisitive, your questions are creative, like being curious and asking questions and piecing together different words, ending that statement with a question mark and having different responses and reaction to what you say is a freaking creative thing. And I say freaking because we don't use those words in my house. Point of the matter is this.  It was a reframe, right? So maybe, maybe it's true. Maybe my son is not creative from a arts and craft perspective.  But if you look at creativity and you open up your ability to interpret what it could mean, what it could look like, sound like, et cetera,  therein lies the ability to reframe  a consistent, persistent thought that you just imagined to be completely factual in every instance. So again, this is so normal, especially when it's a thought where you have been criticized, or it's like a warning, you know, like, don't go down hallway because you'll slip on a banana peel. I don't know. I made that up, right? And then you just think that all your life, there's always a banana peel down that hallway. Like these are just things that are open and available opportunities for you to question, open up in your mind's eye and reconsider if it is not serving you for the task at hand. And so that's why I wanted to just kind of open up this thought experiment, right? So here we go. Let's just imagine you were told you're not creative in the past. Let's just imagine really deep dive that this is something that's been persistent, like you've heard it from everyone around you, that you are not creative, you're not innovative, but here you are this week, maybe you have your own business and you need to solve a challenge creatively, because thinking linearly has not worked in the past. I think I have like a, I don't even know, maybe like 572 examples of that. I'll give you an example.  So let's just imagine you want to open up your lead flow. And what does that mean? That means that you want more people on the phone with you so that you can have these sales conversations. Linear thinking might be, okay, I'm going to start with, you know, ad spend. Whereas creative thinking might be, wait a minute, who else might have this audience? How can I collaborate with them such that they win, we win. Right. And so again, It's really about  almost like placing doubt in something that you feel is a no longer working for you because you have to solve this challenge as a business owner, or be something that you want to kind of like  disentangle. So that you can actually find out what the truth is of your reality. Like, are you creative? But maybe the situation has not been right for your flavor of creativity. Okay. So let's not get too far here because I see myself re imagining the whole episode, but I want to be sure that I take you to the meditation. So here we go. I want you to really think through.  today about how you could increase your awareness of your beliefs around being creative, innovative, a problem solver, so that you can mindfully see them for what they are, which is malleable, In the moment. So again, a strongly held belief that you may have had is one that might not hold truth in every scenario. It might no longer be serving you in today's episode, right? So for me, this idea of math, math is something that, you know, I could say, Oh, I've sucked that math. Do I have proof? I don't. Absolutely.  But might I also have proof that tells me a different story? And the answer to that is yes. Isn't that interesting? The only way for me to have, you know excelled in a mathematical school. Or mathematical pursuit, for example, back to business school on the topic of capital markets. The only way I was able to actually knock it out of the ballpark, this exam that I recall kind of  acing and feeling really confident and good about was because I was able to just almost for for that set of hours just totally mute the fact that one time I wasn't so good at math and this time I was able to be that person who always rises to a challenge, right? And so again, it's about just placing a little bit of doubt in this strongly held belief, because there might be a situation or a moment where  that belief is just totally, totally false. Now you can't bullshit yourself, like, I mean, I guess you could try, but I'm pretty sure you'll figure it out soon enough. But what you can do is at least get an inch or two closer to To a belief that takes you where you want to go. So let's go now and do a little bit of a meditation. And this meditation is going to be different than just, you know, sitting down with our thoughts and focusing on our breath, because what I have noticed is that. A lot of people assume that meditating means we have no thoughts. We're emptying everything that's in our mind and we're doing a bit of a mental cleanse. While that might be true because we have a ton going on in our minds, it's also an opportunity to just simply be that witness To the thoughts that are already in our head, but we might just not notice because we've got a lot of things going on. So that's what this is going to be. So I will guide you through a set of questions. We will go through one thought that you might have or believe is true pertaining to whether you're creative or innovative, and then we'll see where you come out on the other end. You ready for it?  Okie dokie. So let's do this.  Close your eyes,  assuming you're not driving,  and I want you to  just find a comfortable way to either be sitting,  standing, or lying down.  This is the interesting bit.  If your belief is that you need to sit for meditation, or that there's even a right way to meditate,  I'm literally going to show you that that is just a belief that might be right for you, but it doesn't always have to be the case.  All right.  So just  find a way for you to be comfortable  and we'll do a little bit of a body scan.  So imagine from the top of your head,  a sense of calmness pouring down your scalp.  And you're just breathing naturally.  Now imagine  your breath  clearing out any tension you may feel  from your forehead  down to your cheeks. Make sure your left cheek feels relaxed  and your right cheek.  Continue  allowing your breath pass through your neck  and feel the ease.  as best you can.  Continue along your upper back,  the breath going down,  just adding ease wherever it passes.  Down to your mid back,  then to your lower,  breathe out.  Notice your arms,  breathe through your left arm,  breathe in,  breathe through  your right arm. Again, Releasing any, any tension  as thoughts will find their way in and out. Just know that is totally.  normal.  Just breathe in,  then  sink into your seat further  and sink deeper.  I'm going to give you a couple of minutes  as you're relaxed as possible  with this ease  to answer this one question.  What thoughts pop up when you think about yourself as a creative being or innovative thinker?  Consider  One of those thoughts,  perhaps the one thought that feels the most defining  or the one thought that  might have been secretly holding you back through the years,  have that one  thought pertaining to creativity or innovation.  And whether you're capable of being creative or innovative in light of a challenge, hold that one thought, keep that one thought  in mind.  Now, silently to yourself, I invite you to ask yourself  a set of questions  all pertaining to that one  thought, that one limiting belief pertaining to whether you are creative or innovative.  The first question  said in two ways,  is it really true?  Might it be real, but not really, really true. Thank you.  as it relates to that one limiting belief pertaining to creativity.  I want to ask you, what is it like to live with this belief?  What has it been like to live with this belief?  In light of this limiting belief, I want to invite you to just notice how it feels in your body.  Notice  how your body and heart might be suffering with this belief inside  might help to think of an instance of when this belief got in your way  from a relaxed position. And then ask yourself silently,  what does the  vulnerable place inside of you  need right now in relation to how you feel? this belief feels,  how it's held you back.  And now as we're closing  this mindfulness practice,  who would you be without this belief? Who would you be  without this thought?  Who would you be this week without this belief or thought?  Would you be that person who assembles the team to solve the creative challenge?  Would you be able to solve this creative challenge On your own,  would you  be the perfect person,  maybe even the only person who can solve this challenge because  you're creative in just the right  way.  As we close this meditation, I just want to invite you to, to really soften your original belief.  Whatever that limiting belief  was,  place a little doubt in it  or swap it completely for one that  That you can hold. So again, it's not about BSing yourself,  but maybe it's  less declarative, less  fact sounding,  less  debilitating.  Maybe it's  just about opening up  who you get to be, like your identity and who you are.  I am  someone who's possible creativity. I am a problem solver. I can figure this out.  And just giving yourself some space so that you can play with an open heart so that when you approach the challenge this week,  there's no need to run away.  Instead,  you're able to explore with what actually is available to you. You're able to.  Try your hand at something you may have never  thought you could do, but maybe you realize that you're really freaking good at.  And so I invite you, if you have a piece of paper or journal, not that you needed to at this very moment, but if you do  just scribble some ideas. scribble some ideas of how you intend to approach this week's business challenge more creatively.  I know you can do it. And when it comes to mindfulness and when it comes to meditating, there's so many ways to approach it.  And I really think that  There's so many tools that do not require anyone other than yourself. And there's also so many different ways of using the tool of meditation and mindfulness. And this has been one that I have seen work really well when it comes to coaching clients in terms of their limiting beliefs. It's this idea that. By being that third party  awareness level of these thoughts and beliefs that we have passing through our minds,  it gives us an opportunity to start poking holes in some of these thoughts and beliefs that  are no longer serving us or holding us back or have us feeling like we're totally stuck. And so this week I invite you to be more.  intentional about whether or not everything that passes through your head is a fact and completely the law in terms of who you are.  And I invite you to be mindful and more open to the fact that  Your beliefs, your thoughts really influence your behaviors. So if you could imagine playing this out, if you get to a place where you believe that there are instances where you have been creative  and you look at this week's challenge with that fresh perspective and hope, then you're actually able to, and willing to, and will  behave in a different, a new way.  Versus  retreating, right? And not even raising your hand to solve that creative challenge because  you're just not creative.  So I hope this was helpful to you. I hope this serves you. I hope that it gives you an opportunity to just think about mindfulness and using the tool of meditation in a new way. It is not just about sitting down, feeling zen, and, you know, having all the negative Thoughts of the day wash out of your head. It can absolutely give you that extra sense of reality and a greater, more sophisticated level of presence so that you can be very intentional about how you use the thoughts, beliefs, and ideas that have crossed your mind or people  tell you. Because again,  A thought, a belief is not necessarily some sort of hard and steadfast  fact. It can actually be  malleable for the moment.  Have a wonderful day. If you got value out of this, I would absolutely love to hear from you. To hear from you right now. I'm super excited about email because I am on a social media break. I think I've been on one for weeks now. So go ahead and email me and put my email in the show notes. It's melissa. larinaatgmail.  com. And let me know if you got value out of this conversation. I would love to hear from you. And if there's a,  challenge or situation where you could use the presence or the ease or the thoughtfulness that introducing meditation in your life can provide, let me know. I'm happy to work with you as well. Thank you so much. 

Tim Dillahunt is the head of personal lines underwriting at the Hanover Insurance group.  He is diverse insurance professional with an Underwriting, Marketing and Sales leadership background. Over 25 years of experience at some of the country's leading P&C Companies. Highlights from the Show When a pipe leaks, a hose breaks or some other preventable source of water damage to your home leads to a claim, you can rebuild, but you can never fully recover because of the likely loss of things like family photos and other personally valuable items. And while your insurer can cover the cost of fixing the damage, the emotional toll of being out of your home and dealing with the situation and uncertainty around it is also not something you can recover. That's why Tim talks not just about the clear financial savings of using water leak detection and shutoff sensors, but also the innumerable personal savings that come with it. Stopping claims by identifying water leaks proactively saves money for everyone. It can reduce the size of claims, reducing costs for insurers and helping insureds keep their rates from increasing. It keeps businesses open because they don't need to close their facilities due to water damage or construction. And it reduces the overall cost to insure a pool of risks, helping keep rates lower for everyone. Tim talks about the many ways people and businesses can save from the use of simple water leak detection devices and help control one of the few forms of property claims we cannot easily control, unlike things like wind, flood, hail and wildfire. What kinds of tools can you use to reduce your risk of having a homeowners claim because of a leak or burst pipe? Tim shares ideas from the most basic – a simple sensor that clips onto a pipe and can spot whether you have a slow leak or more catastrophic failure. You may be aware of a burst pipe without the sensor, but slow leaks often happen behind walls and in other hidden places you only notice once they've really spread, and may have lead to mold and other issues that are harder to contend with. And you could have avoided the whole thing with a simple solution. What happens with a pipe bursts in a home or business? What about a museum. Tim shares their first hand experience when a museum that had leak detection sensors installed was able to act immediately when a pipe burst, shutting off the water and mopping up what got out before it ruined any of their extremely valuable artwork and other items. And while there may be a monetary value to the lost items, many may be irreplaceable – like family photos or heirlooms if the same thing happened in your home. Water leak detection sensors can be simple and low-cost. A typical home may need $100 in sensors and $100 in monitoring services for those sensors. But what about the cost of a pipe or washing machine water hose leaking in your home? The Hanover sees that these claims average $7,000-10,000 or more, and could have all been avoided. Why does Tim say, “Water sensors are the new smoke alarms”? About 40% of non-weather loss costs are caused by water. It is the single biggest cause of loss than any other non-weather cause. And yet less than 17% of homes have any type of water sensor, while 80%+ have smoke alarms despite those homes being 6-7x more likely to have a water loss than a fire. Because of all of this, Tim is on a mission to educate people to change that 17% and stop people from suffering these losses. Tim wants everyone to look at the educational resources they've made available on their site at https://www.hanover.com/individuals/customer-resources/proactive-protection-against-water-damage This episode is brought to you by The Future of Insurance thought leadership series, available globally from Amazon in print, Kindle and Audible audiobook.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the intense political activity at the turn of the 18th Century, when many politicians in London went to great lengths to find a Protestant successor to the throne of Great Britain and Ireland and others went to equal lengths to oppose them. Queen Anne had no surviving children and, following the old rules, there were at least 50 Catholic candidates ahead of any Protestant ones and among those by far the most obvious candidate was James, the only son of James II. Yet with the passing of the Act of Settlement in 1701 ahead of Anne's own succession, focus turned to Europe and to Princess Sophia, an Electress of the Holy Roman Empire in Hanover who, as a granddaughter of James I, thus became next in line to be crowned at Westminster Abbey. It was not clear that Hanover would want this role, given its own ambitions and the risks, in Europe, of siding with Protestants, and soon George I was minded to break the rules of succession so that he would be the last Hanoverian monarch as well as the first.WithAndreas Gestrich Professor Emeritus at Trier University and Former Director of the German Historical Institute in LondonElaine Chalus Professor of British History at the University of LiverpoolAnd Mark Knights Professor of History at the University of WarwickProducer: Simon TillotsonReading list:J.M.

Today on Jewish Studies Unscrolled, we explore Nathan Hanover's 17th-century work, The Abyss of Despair, or, in the original Hebrew, Yeven Metsulah. The text documents the Chmelnitski Revolt of 1648, a catastrophic uprising that devastated Jewish communities in Eastern Europe. We're joined by Adam Teller, historian and author of Rescue the Surviving Souls: The Jewish Refugee Crisis of the Seventeenth Century, to examine how Jews across Europe and the Middle East organized a remarkable rescue network to ransom hostages, despite the era's limited communication tools. Drawing parallels to modern events, Adam Teller sheds new light on this often-overlooked chapter of history, showing how The Abyss of Despair holds untapped insights into Jewish resilience and global solidarity.

The LORD proclaims that mighty Assyria is the rod of anger in His hands. However, while the LORD does His work of bringing wrath against His own people through Assyria, Assyria becomes proud, as if they are the rulers of the world. The LORD laughs at Assyria's haughtiness and promises that they too will be brought low for their wicked idolatry. Even with the destruction the LORD brings against His people through Assyria, He promises that He will preserve a remnant of Israel. Therefore, Israel need not fear Assyria, for the LORD will chop them down.  Rev. Zelwyn Heide, pastor at St. Peter Lutheran Church in Hanover, ND and Zion Lutheran Church in New Salem, ND, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Isaiah 10:5-34.  "The Fifth Evangelist” is a series on Sharper Iron that goes through Isaiah 1-39. The prophet proclaims to the people of his day and throughout history that the Holy One of Israel alone is exalted. Those who put their trust in the strength of man will be brought low, but those who trust in the LORD will see that He is their Immanuel. Jesus is God with us who reigns over the kingdom of God forever and ever! Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God's Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen. Submit comments or questions to: listener@kfuo.org

True Crime Tuesday presents Murderous Minds Of Germany: Serial Killers of Deutschland with Author, Alan R. Warren! Volume 1 of the International Serial Killers Encyclopedia series focuses on the most notorious serial killers from Germany. It contains many cases where the twisted minds and deeds of those who stalked the streets of Germany left a trail of fear and destruction in their wake. From the infamous Fritz Haarmann, a.k.a. the “Butcher of Hanover,” who preyed upon young boys with chilling brutality, to Peter Kürten, a.k.a. the “Vampire of Dusseldorf,” whose thirst for blood knew no bounds. Each chapter reveals the brutal tales of individuals consumed by their darkest desires and a compelling blend of true crime and psychological intrigue. Murderous Minds Germany offers a chilling glimpse into the darkest recesses of the human psyche, reminding us that evil can lurk just beneath the surface, even in the most civilized society. On Today's TCT, we talk to Alan Warren about the Vampire of Dusseldorf, The Werewolf of Bedburg, Karl Denke, Joachim Kroll, and other famous German serial killers, and we also ask Alan the question "did the world of Modern psychology come from the beginnings of German serial killers?"    Get your copy of "Murderous Minds Of Germany" here:   https://bit.ly/3ArJhAZ Check out Alan on the House of Mystery Radio show:  https://www.alanrwarren.com/house-of-mystery-radioshows PLUS: ALL-NEW DUMB CRIMES/STUPID CRIMINALS W/JESSICA FREEBURG!
