America's seizure of a Venezuelan oil tanker fits with the stated goals in its new national-security strategy: untrammelled hemispheric dominance. How much of the document is polemic and how much will become policy? The long-run costs of the work-from-home revolution are becoming apparent in many American cities.

Despite twenty-first-century fears of nuclear conflagrations with North Korea, Russia, and Iran, the Cuban Missile Crisis is the closest the United States has come to nuclear war. That history has largely been a bilateral narrative of the US-USSR struggle for postwar domination, with Cuba as the central staging ground--a standard account that obscures the shock waves that reverberated throughout Latin America. The Fate of the Americas: The Cuban Missile Crisis and the Hemispheric Cold War (UNC Press, 2025), as the first hemispheric examination of the Cuban Missile Crisis, shows how leaders and ordinary citizens throughout the region experienced it, revealing that, had the missiles been activated, millions of people across Latin America would have been at grave risk. Traversing the region from the Southern Cone to Central America, Renata Keller describes the deadly riots that shook Bolivia when news of the Cuban Missile Crisis broke, the naval quarantine that members of Argentina's armed forces formed around Cuba, the pro-Castro demonstrations organized by Nicaraguan students, and much more. Drawing on a vast array of archival sources from around the hemisphere and world, The Fate of the Americas demonstrates that even at the brink of destruction, Latin Americans played active roles in global politics and inter-American relations.

Episode 4930: Visions Of Hemispheric Defense And What That Means With Venezuela

Episode 4850: History Of The US Navy; Tragedy Of Hemispheric Defense

The National Security Hour with Brandon Weichert – Trump redefines America's role with a bold hemispheric defense strategy. From Alberta's energy wealth to Greenland's Arctic frontier, he seeks to secure resources, borders, and influence while countering China and Russia.

The National Security Hour with Brandon Weichert – Trump redefines America's role with a bold hemispheric defense strategy. From Alberta's energy wealth to Greenland's Arctic frontier, he seeks to secure resources, borders, and influence while countering China and Russia. By reviving the Monroe Doctrine and focusing inward, Trump builds a fortress America designed to consolidate strength, protect the Western Hemisphere, and...

This is Fatima Seck and today's discussion is with Dr. Danielle Roper, an assistant professor in the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures at the University of Chicago from Kingston, Jamaica. She is also the curator of the digital exhibit: Visualizing/Performing Blackness in the Afterlives of Slavery: A Caribbean Archive.  She is from Kingston, Jamaica. In this conversation, we discuss her latest monograph Hemispheric Blackface: Impersonation and Nationalist Fictions in the Americas. Dr. Roper examines blackface performance and its relationship to twentieth- and twenty-first-century nationalist fictions of mestizaje, creole nationalism, and other versions of postracialism in the Americas.

On this Friday edition the host opens with a candid apology and dives into a wide-ranging hour that connects geopolitics, domestic scandal and culture-war flashpoints. The episode leads with the controversial sinking of a Venezuelan drug-cartel boat — framed as an anti-terror move — and explores the host's case that the strike is part of a larger Trump strategy for hemispheric control, regime change in Venezuela, energy dominance, and a transition away from the fiat dollar toward digital currency. China's growing influence in South America and the timing of global summits are discussed as context for U.S. action. Listeners get the show's recurring “Word on Word” game comparing two scripture passages (Exodus 33:15 vs. Matthew 28:18–20), with the Gospel passage taking the day. The program then plays a series of curated clips and commentary: James Comer on alleged White House autopen/pardon abuses with Maria Bartiromo, John Solomon previewing bombshell National Archives documents, and a CNN segment revisiting Uranium One and influence questions. The episode covers a cluster of medical- and pharma-related stories: RFK Jr.'s widely shared hearing moments, Trump's public positioning on Big Pharma and drug-price rebates, Bill Gates' presence and mRNA vaccine discussions, and archival clips of Anthony Fauci on early AIDS epidemiology. The host ties these threads into broader claims about elite influence, alleged cover-ups, and the role of powerful institutions in shaping policy. Additional segments include a provocative investigative excerpt about preserved fetal remains, a three-minute Q-adjacent clip connecting Trump soundbites, a stinging rant from a Canadian content creator about crime and policing (played for context, noted for its explicit language), and a humorous Tim Dillon clip from Joe Rogan to close. The show also touches on Elon Musk's Grok/A.I. commentary and Peter Thiel/Palantir discussion. Key takeaways: the host argues the Venezuela action signals a larger hemispheric play, raises legal and political alarms about autopen use in the White House, highlights ongoing battles over Big Pharma and vaccine policy, and critiques mainstream media framing. The episode features recorded clips from James Comer, Maria Bartiromo, John Solomon, RFK Jr., Bill Gates, Anthony Fauci, Tim Dillon and others, and ends with a personal update about the host's family and community prayer information.

In this thought-provoking episode, Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Greg Grandin joins us to discuss his groundbreaking book, “America, América: The Origins of Hemispheric and Global Hegemony,” which challenges traditional narratives of U.S. history by centering Latin America's pivotal role. We discuss: Why does U.S. history begin with the Mayflower—and not the Spanish conquest? How did Latin America pioneer social rights (healthcare, education) decades before the U.S. or Europe? The dark legacy of U.S. intervention: From Cold War coups to the rise of Trumpist politics in Latin America today. Myth-busting the frontier, the Catholic Church's dual legacy, and the untold stories of Indigenous resistance.   We also debate FDR's New Deal, the failures of neoliberalism, and why Latin America's leftist "Pink Tide" (Chávez, Lula, Morales) faced backlash—leading to today's right-wing surge (Bolsonaro, Milei, Bukele). This is a must-listen for history buffs, political junkies, and anyone questioning the standard U.S. origin story!

President-elect Donald Trump held an electrifying press conference Tuesday. In its course, he described the vital importance of Canada, Greenland and the Panama Canal to the national and economic security of the United States. While it remains to be seen what Mr. Trump will do once in office, just by talking about those interests he has set the stage for long-overdue corrective action on the rampant violation of America's historic Monroe Doctrine, aimed at keeping hostile powers like China, Russia and Iran out of our hemisphere. His remarks have also given further reason for such foreign enemies, among others, to try to prevent Donald Trump's return to power. We must deny them a possible free-shot on him – and virtually the entirety of our national leadership – by forgoing the inauguration planned for outdoors on the West Front of the Capitol on January 20 th. This is Frank Gaffney.

Curiosity plays a crucial role in personal and professional development. Self-described curiosity sherpa Tom Morgan (@tomowenmorgan) is the author of the substack "What's Important?" and joins the Futures Edge to explore the idea that curiosity is an attractor and that following one's curiosity can lead to a more fulfilling life. Podcast hosts (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@jimiuorio⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠) and Bob Iaccino (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@Bob_Iaccino⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠) discuss their own experiences with curiosity and how it has shaped their interests and careers. They also discuss the balance between left-brain and right-brain thinking and the importance of openness and discernment. The conversation includes a discussion on wisdom, knowledge, and intuition, exploring the importance of intuition and experience in decision-making, the need for hemispheric balance, and the value of service and connection. They dive into the concept of complexity, the integration of differentiated parts, and the role of metaphors in understanding and communicating ideas. They also touch on the pitfalls of self-sacrifice and the importance of finding meaningful work that aligns with one's strengths and interests. The key takeaways include the need to attribute intelligence to external sources, the importance of accurate metaphors in understanding reality, and the value of pattern recognition and intuition in investing and decision-making. Takeaways -Curiosity is an attractor and following one's curiosity can lead to a more fulfilling life. -There is a balance between left-brain and right-brain thinking, and both are important for personal and professional development. -Openness and discernment are key in exploring new interests and ideas. -Wisdom is not necessarily tied to age, but is developed through experience and intuition. Intuition and experience are crucial in decision-making, and the depth of one's database of knowledge and experience is essential in assessing the value of intuition. -Hemispheric balance, with a focus on integrating the left and right hemispheres of the brain, is important for optimal decision-making and overall well-being. -Finding meaningful work that aligns with one's strengths and interests is crucial for happiness and fulfillment. -Accurate metaphors and the ability to attribute intelligence to external sources are valuable in understanding and communicating complex ideas. -Pattern recognition and intuition play a significant role in investing and decision-making, and the ability to accurately interpret signals and triggers is essential.

Hemispheric foreign policy has waxed and waned since the Mexican War, and the Cold War presented both extraordinary promises and dangerous threats to U.S.-Latin American cooperation.  In Hemispheric Alliances: Liberal Democrats and Cold War Latin America (UNC Press, 2022), Andrew J. Kirkendall examines the strengths and weaknesses of new models for U.S.-Latin American relations created by liberal Democrats who came to the fore during the Kennedy Administration and retained significant influence until the Reagan era. Rather than exerting ironfisted power in Latin America, liberal Democrats urged Washington to be a moral rather than a militaristic leader in hemispheric affairs. Decolonization, President Eisenhower's missteps in Latin America, and the Cuban Revolution all played key roles in the Kennedy administration's Alliance for Progress, which liberal Democrats hailed as a new cornerstone for U.S.-Latin American foreign policy. During the Vietnam War era, liberal Democrats began to incorporate human rights more centrally into their agendas, using Latin America as the primary arena for these policies. During the long period of military dictatorship in much of Latin America and the Caribbean, liberal Democrats would see their policies dissolved by the Nixon, Reagan, and Bush administrations who favored militant containment of both communism and absolutism.

Max Pound was an outstanding young athlete and full of life until 2020 when  his mother Carol, who in her professional life was involved with early oncology drug development, noticed some concerning health signs and took Max to get them checked out. Shortly after that Max was diagnosed with Diffuse Hemispheric Glioma, a very rare form of Pediatric Brain Cancer at the age of 10. Through much of 2021 Max was feeling well enough to return to his athletic endeavors and to school when possible, but at the end of 2021 Max had a relapse, struggled through 2022 , and passed away on January 11th of 2023.Carol will talk about her beloved son and the Max Pound Foundation which her family started to honor Max's memory in 2023.

Abstract: The processing of stationary sounds relies on both local features and compact representations. As local information is compressed into summary statistics, abstract representations emerge. Whether the brain is endowed with distinct neural architectures overseeing such computations is unknown. In this magnetoencephalography (MEG) study, we employed a validated protocol to localize cortical correlates of local and summary representations, exposing participants to triplets of synthetic sound textures systematically varying for either local details or summary statistics. Sounds also varied for their sound duration, specifically short (40ms) or long (478ms). Results revealed clear distinct activation patterns for local features and summary statistics changes. Such activations diverged in magnitude, spatiotemporal distribution, and hemispheric lateralization. For short sounds, a change in local features, compared to summary statistics, predominantly activated the right hemisphere. Conversely, for long sounds, a change in summary statistics elicited higher activation than a change in local features in both hemispheres. Specifically, while the right auditory cortex was responding more to changes in local features or summary statistics depending on sound duration (short or long, respectively), the left frontal lobe was selectively engaged in processing a change in summary statistics at a long sound duration. These findings provide insights into the neural mechanisms underlying the computation of local and summary acoustic information and highlight the involvement of distinct cortical pathways and hemispheric lateralization in auditory processing at different temporal resolutions.

Abstract: Evidence suggests that subcortical structures play a role in high-level cognitive functions such as the allocation of spatial attention. While there is abundant evidence in humans for posterior alpha band oscillations being modulated by spatial attention, little is known about how subcortical regions contribute to these oscillatory modulations, particularly under varying conditions of cognitive challenge. In this study, we combined MEG and structural MRI data to investigate the role of subcortical structures in controlling the allocation of attentional resources by employing a cued spatial attention paradigm with varying levels of perceptual load. We asked whether hemispheric lateralization of volumetric measures of the thalamus and basal ganglia predicted the hemispheric modulation of alpha-band power. Lateral asymmetry of the globus pallidus, caudate nucleus, and thalamus predicted attention-related modulations of posterior alpha oscillations. When the perceptual load was applied to the target and the distractor was salient caudate nucleus asymmetry predicted alpha-band modulations. Globus Pallidus was predictive of alpha-band modulations when either the target had a high load, or the distractor was salient, but not both. Finally, the asymmetry of the thalamus predicted alpha band modulation when neither component of the task was perceptually demanding. In addition to delivering new insight into the subcortical circuity controlling alpha oscillations with spatial attention, our finding might also have clinical applications. We provide a framework that could be followed for detecting how structural changes associated with neurological disorders in subcortical regions can be reflected in the modulation of oscillatory brain activity.

Welcome to this special podcast episode on Higher Density Living. In today's episode, we will be exploring the concept of sacred strength and how it can help us navigate difficult times in our lives. We all face challenges in our lives, whether it's the loss of a loved one, a job loss, a health crisis, or any other unexpected event that can turn our world upside down. We are so caught up in the material and physical delusions. During these times, it's easy to feel overwhelmed and powerless. However, there is a source of strength that can help us through these tough times. Alexander and Jason tackle their own experiences and novelties in such concepts.   The term "spiritual power" can mean different things to different people, but at its core, it refers to the inner strength and resilience that comes from connecting with something greater than ourselves. It can be found in various spiritual practices, such as meditation, prayer, or yoga, and it can provide us with the courage, hope, and resilience we need to face life's challenges. This is colloquially discussed through the motifs of understanding, vibrations, equality, and leadership. These will be discussed in this episode.    Sacred strength is also a practice of mindfulness. This aspect is introduced by Alexander through his understanding of the Vibrato, or the hemispheric balance, a complex combination of biological, neurological, and even psychological domains of a functional mind under wave patterns and vibratory frequencies. By staying present at the moment and cultivating a non-judgmental awareness of our thoughts and feelings, we can learn to respond to life's challenges with greater clarity and compassion. Hemispheric balance puts your body to sleep. This way it keeps the mind engaged in mental activities. Such examples can be seen in dreaming or meditation.    The power of survival also strives for a man to push his boundaries, wit, and grit beyond any material mindset. You still must go and make the choices. Strive for your achievement. We are all students of Creation. We need to have a deeper understanding of the universe to gain strength in wisdom.    Ultimately, the message of "Sacred Strength" is that we all have a source of inner strength that can help us navigate life's challenges, whether it be personal, romantic, or professional. This episode teaches us the full brevity of meditation as a lifestyle, not a mere spiritual practice or self-help exercise, to fully realize the commitment we are dealing with our consciousness and free will. By connecting with our spiritual power, we can find the courage, resilience, and wisdom we need to overcome adversity and live our best lives.   As always, Higher Density Living reserves no dogma because only the truth prevails in the universe. History is judged by enlightened communities, and the Higher Density Living podcast is committed to the same cause. You are the center of the universe. Let us join Alexander and Jason as they discuss Spiritual Power. www.higherdensityliving.com

Spanning nearly 63 million square miles from California to China, the Pacific Ocean is by the far the largest of the world's ocean basins. The Pacific contains more than half of the free water on the planet and is the deepest ocean on Earth. Climate change impacts are being felt around the globe, but what do we do about it. Much of the ocean is still waiting to be explored, but human activities like industrial fishing, deep-sea mining, and fossil-fuel burning are already changing it in significant ways. Scripps Institution of Oceanography professor Brice Semmens moderators a discussion with NOAA Administrator, Richard Spinrad and State Department Deputy Assistant Secretary of Ocean, Fisheries and Polar Affairs, Maxine Burkett on the State of the Pacific Ocean and how the hemisphere can work together to combat the growing effects of climate change.
