When crisis strikes, where do you instinctively turn for help and hope?#BattleDrillDaily #CrisisSupport #Emmanuel #FaithIn today's Battle Drill Daily Devotional, we explore a powerful reminder through the 2024 Hastings water crisis, where 35,000 people discovered that help was often closer than they thought. When a burst water main left residents without running water for six days, something beautiful emerged - neighbours who'd never spoken became lifelines, and community support activated with remarkable efficiency.Drawing from Acts 17:27, we discover that God's closeness doesn't always look like dramatic intervention. Sometimes it's the neighbour bringing bottled water, the friend texting at exactly the right moment, or the stranger offering practical help. We often mistakenly assume God's nearness should be measurable by our feelings, yet his presence transcends our ability to sense it.This episode reveals how crisis can become an opportunity for deeper spiritual awareness, stripping away superficial concerns to reveal what truly matters. Through practical insights and biblical wisdom, we explore how God draws near through the compassionate actions of people who become his hands and feet in our situations - just as Jesus ministered through physical, tangible presence during his earthly ministry.Scripture: "His purpose was for the nations to seek after God and perhaps feel their way toward him and find him - though he is not far from any one of us" (Acts 17:27 NLT).Call to Action: Don't just look up for God's presence - look around. Pay attention today to how God might be drawing near through people, and consider how you might be his nearness to someone else.You can read this week's devotionals by downloading them from here - https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/qx9k7x1cca5lsdw5dho3n/250727.pdf?rlkey=ciqkuc6nhgr2butxdocmii8ie&dl=0Visit battledrilldevotional.com for more devotionals.

To start our new instalment of episodes about the most consequential political trials in history David explores the trial of the eighteenth century: the impeachment of Warren Hastings that ran in the British parliament from 1788-95. Hastings had been Governor-General of Bengal, controlling much of India for Britain and for the East India Company and making himself and many others rich in the process. So why did his former allies turn on him? Why did his trial last for seven years? Why did it end up as a festival of hypocrisy and madness? And why would its closest twenty-first century parallel be the impeachment of Elon Musk? Out now on PPF+: Part 2 of David's conversation with Alexander Douglas in which they talk about how Silicon Valley took a philosophical concept of identity and turned it into a commodity to be marketed. Plus, how should we think about ‘impostor syndrome'?

Un chasse-mouches en queue de lion devenu l'un des symboles les plus marquants du pouvoir de Kamuzu Banda. Médecin formé en Occident, le père de l'indépendance du Malawi cultivait pourtant l'image d'un chef profondément enraciné dans les traditions locales. Un nationaliste culturel assumé, qui n'apparaissait jamais sans cet accessoire singulier - à la fois outil cérémoniel, signe d'autorité et instrument de mise en scène politique.  Il le brandissait partout. Lors des cérémonies officielles, des rassemblements politiques, ou même à sa descente d'avion… Le fouet à queue de lion ne quittait jamais Hastings Kamuzu Banda. À l'image de son costume trois-pièces à l'anglaise ou de son chapeau homburg, porté à la manière d'un Winston Churchill, cet accessoire faisait partie intégrante de sa silhouette présidentielle. Le chercheur Chikondi Chidzanja de l'université de Stellenbosch s'en souvient : « Lorsqu'il se rendait au palais, il était dans une voiture décapotable et agitait son fouet à queue de lion. Pour nous, enfants des écoles, c'était un moment d'excitation. On répétait : “Aujourd'hui, on va voir Kamuzu Banda !” » Mais ce n'était pas un geste improvisé, souligne l'historien John Lwanda : « La main droite partait vers la gauche, puis vers le haut, puis vers la droite… Ce n'était pas un geste lancé au hasard, comme tu ferais lors d'un match de foot ». Le fouet servait aussi à projeter l'image d'un libérateur, explique Chrispin Mphande, enseignant à l'université de Mzuzu : « On l'appelait le Lion du Malawi. Certains allaient jusqu'à le voir comme un Messie, surtout après sa nomination à vie dans les années 1970. Le fouet symbolisait ce pouvoir : celui de l'homme qui a vaincu le colon et libéré le pays ». À lire aussiOù en est le Malawi 60 ans après son indépendance? Un symbole de pouvoir, mais aussi d'identité. Formé aux États-Unis et au Royaume-Uni, Kamuzu Banda voulait paraître comme un dirigeant enraciné dans les traditions africaines. Chikondi Chidzanja : « Kamuzu, il avait étudié en Occident, mais pour ne pas être perçu comme un étranger, il devait aussi incarner l'Africain. Alors le fouet est devenu le symbole de cet ancrage culturel ». Dès 1962, l'objet apparaît dans ses mains. Il lui aurait été offert par un autre père de l'indépendance, le Kényan Jomo Kenyatta. Mais sous le régime à parti unique de Kamuzu Banda, nul n'était autorisé à le porter, sauf lui. John Lwanda : « On ne pouvait pas se promener avec un fouet en disant qu'on était guérisseur. On se faisait arrêter ». Aujourd'hui encore, l'objet fascine. Il en aurait existé plusieurs : en poils de buffle, de lion ou de cheval... Mais la dernière version est bien connue, affirme l'historien John Lwanda : « Le dernier fouet était une vraie queue de lion, avec un manche en ivoire ». Cette version a été confiée à l'université de médecine qu'il a fondée, la Kamuzu University of Health Sciences. Elle est encore utilisée lors des remises de diplômes. Un enseignant la passe au-dessus des têtes des jeunes médecins, comme pour balayer l'ignorance, et consacrer leur entrée dans le savoir. Une manière de prolonger, dans le rituel universitaire, la portée symbolique d'un objet devenu emblème du pouvoir.

RETCON: ‘Retroactive Continuity' — generally used in science fiction and fantasy to re-write historical lore to make it conform to modern interpretations. That's what the BBC is doing to their new series on The Norman Conquest: William I of Normandy's successful invasion of the British Isles and the defeat of the Anglo-Saxon King Harold at the Battle of Hastings.

In the Land of Grey and Pink es el tercer álbum de la banda inglesa de rock progresivo Caravan, lanzado en abril de 1971 por Deram Records. Fue producido por David Hitchcock y fue el último álbum que contó con la formación original de Richard Coughlan, Pye Hastings, Richard Sinclair y Dave Sinclair hasta Back to Front de 1982. El álbum fue compuesto y grabado a finales de 1970 y principios de 1971, e incluyó más material de Richard Sinclair. Hastings, quien había sido el compositor principal de los dos lanzamientos anteriores, solo contribuyó con un tema. Instrumentalmente, la música está dominada por los solos de teclado de David Sinclair, y la segunda cara está ocupada por una suite de 22 minutos, "Nine Feet Underground". La portada presenta una pintura con influencia de Tolkien.

My daughter, Jamelah, joined me to talk about an issue she has been having with Hastings College regarding their required $6,000 meal plan for freshmen and sophomores. She met with college staff to discuss her concerns as she will be living in a campus apartment next year that has a kitchenette, so she feels that she will not need the meal plan.She only used about $1,000 of the meal plan this year proving that it isn't necessary for her. That doesn't matter to the campus because of, "Policy" and "That's the way it has always been." How that is satisfactory is something we can't wrap our heads around. This appears to be a situation where the school is trying to stash extra cash as there are other classmates that feel the same way and experienced the same thing. Why not roll the money over? They don't even have the ability to treat someone else to lunch with the money they have on their books. That's crazy!We wanted to share this story to help educate others that may be considering higher education and don't know how things may work. Hastings College:Phone: 800-532-7642Address: 710 N.

For today's episode in the history of bad ideas David talks to cultural historian Tom Wright about charisma, a term that often feels essential for understanding modern politics but which ends up obscuring far more than it explains. How did an old idea from Christian theology get used to explain the hold that political leaders have over crowds? Why is it so important not to confuse charm with charisma? What has made a word from early twentieth-century social science ubiquitous on twenty-first-century dating sites? And if Trump hasn't got charisma, then what has he got?

This week, i do an archaelogical dig into 160 years of baseball history in Minnesota. In many ways, Minnesota was an early leader in team sports being played before large crowds, when the Dakota and Ojibwe tribes would play native lacrosse games, as far back as the 1600's, long before European settlers arrived. As for baseball, their timeline stretches back to 1857, when citizens from the town of Nininger, establish the first baseball team in state history. Soon after the conclusion of the American Civil War, various teams begin to sprout up in the Land Of 10,000 Lakes, most notably in Minneapolis-St. Paul, as well as many outlier towns like Red Wing, Fairbault, Minnehaha, St. Croix and Hastings, riding the wave of the young sport's growth and popularity. 160 years later, the region's baseball history continues to be written by the Minnesota Twins, who bring the Major League brand to the state in 1961, after Calvin Griffith and the Washington Senators relocate to the Twin-Cities. I also present the history and construction of their current Home ballpark. Target Field, which stands as a testament to the Twins vision of providing a cathedral, that is not only on the cutting edge of baseball stadium aesthetics and functionality, but also for sustainable practices. Demonstrating a commitment to enviromental responsibility, and providing an inspiration to the Twins fans, to be champions for the very planet that sustains us all. #NinningerNine #NorthStarBaseBallClub #IgnatiusDonnelly #CaptainRolinOllin #VermillionClubOfHastings #MinneapolisNine #RedWingCrescentClub #SaxonNine #OlympicNine #BanJohnson #CharlesComiskey #LexingtonPark #AthleticPark #NicolletPark #MetropolitanStadium #HubertHumphreyMetroDome #TargetField #RodCarew #HarmonKillebrew #MudcatGrant #TonyOliva #LymonBostick #KentHrbek #KirbyPucket #JoeMauer #MikeKelly

How do you build a high-performance culture without turning your company into the Hunger Games? Reed Hastings, co-founder and former CEO of Netflix, shares lessons from a career spent rewriting the rules—from severance as a management tool to “big-hearted champions who pick up the trash.” In this episode, he reveals how Netflix scaled trust, made bold bets before the data was in, and kept its edge by treating employees like adults—not assets. You'll hear how Hastings evaluates talent beyond the interview, the reason he avoids performance improvement plans, and what most leaders misunderstand about judgment, feedback, and innovation.  You'll also hear why he placed a $100 million bet on House of Cards with no pilot, how Drive to Survive changed an entire sport, and why Squid Game caught even Netflix by surprise.  Now focused on a new chapter—owning a ski mountain, reshaping education through AI tutors, and supporting charter schools—Hastings is still doing what he does best: building systems that scale culture, not just product.  If you care about performance without politics—or culture without the clichés—this is a blueprint from one of the clearest thinkers in modern business.  Approximate timestamps: Subject to variation due to dynamically inserted ads: (3:09) Powder Mountain, Skiing Industry, & Buying a Mountain (6:36) Setting Culture in an Organization (9:21) Hiring Process and Evaluating Candidates (14:24) Netflix's 2009 Slide Deck Release (16:26) Talent Density and Performance Culture (17:59) Loyalty and Team Building (19:56) Severance Packages (22:17) Process Vs.
