Graduation season is once more upon us. The long school year has come to a close, and now, in caps and gowns, the nation's graduates gather to receive their various certifications, diplomas, and degrees, and listen to wisdom from a speaker.  However, many college graduations are not the same tranquil affairs they used to be. FIRE, the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression, reports that attempts by students to disinvite commencement speakers over political beliefs have increased sharply over the last decade or so. To name one example, students at Morehouse School of Medicine are attempting to block the commencement speech of alumnus Congressman Rich McCormick, over his stances against DEI, abortion, and transgender surgeries among other views. Some schools, such as New York University, have switched to recorded remarks by students in lieu of an in-person speaker.  At this point, the level of intolerance and intellectual coddling taking place at American universities is not a new story. It's bad, but is there a way back? This week, the Heritage Foundation is releasing a new book: Higher Education in America: It's Worse than you Think. I sat down with Jonathan Butcher, Acting Director of Heritage's Center for Education Policy and one of the book's authors, to ask whether he believes there is hope for the American university.  --- Email us with thoughts, questions, or suggestions: HeritageExplains@heritage.org  ---Jonathan Butcher on X: https://x.com/JM_Butcher?lang=enHigher Education in America: It's Worse Than You Think: https://a.co/d/0aMuIWzN

Go Love Together -  looks at the three “Greats” in the New Testament - The Great Commandment , the Great Commission, and the Great Collaboration. We are all familiar with the Great Commission and the challenge to “Go.” There has been much taught on the Great Commandment and the need to go with “Love.” But it is the last part of Jesus' mission – which was Jesus' final prayer – that we have forgotten. It's the Great Collaboration – that we are to go in love Together!

Born on June 3, 1982 in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, Davey Jones brings the rich musical heritage of the Deep South to every stage he steps on. A true multi-instrumentalist, Jones is best known for his searing guitar playing but also masters drums, piano, bass, organ, and more — often performing and recording nearly every instrument on his releases himself. Drawing from Southern Rock, traditional Blues, Gospel, and Country, he has forged a distinct and powerful sound that pays homage to the greats while remaining unmistakably his own.With more than 30 years of writing and performing, Jones has built a reputation for high-energy, soulful shows that connect deeply with audiences. From his early days playing in Southern churches and gospel groups to rocking county and blues stages across the region, his journey has led him to share bills and stages throughout the United States. His dynamic live performances and genuine connection with fans have become his signature — a philosophy best captured in his own words: “It's simply not enough to put on a good show, you've got to involve the audience and make them feel like the show is dedicated to them. Because, at the end of the day, this show is for them.”Jones' talent has been recognized with accolades including “Most Talented Musician” for the state of Louisiana in 2000. His playing draws favorable comparisons to blues and rock icons such as Tab Benoit, Buddy Guy, Stevie Ray Vaughan, and Chuck Berry. His music has received airplay on “Blues Legends” radio and major blues playlists, further cementing his place among today's most compelling blues and roots artists.Whether headlining clubs, festivals, or theaters, Davey Jones delivers the kind of authentic, roof-raising performances that remind fans why they fell in love with the blues.https://daveyjonesmusic.com

When our elders pass away, too often their recipes die with them. In recent years, this reality really began sinking in for actor and restaurateur Billy Dec. So Dec, the son of a white father and Filipina mother, decided to travel to the Philippines to find his last living maternal elders and learn his ancestral recipes. He brought along a film crew, and the result is the new PBS documentary Food Roots.We met up with Dec at Sunda Tampa, the Southeast Asian restaurant he owns in Tampa's Midtown district. In this conversation, he discusses what his journey taught him about himself, his struggle to fit in as a “Waisian” kid growing up in Chicago and the rising popularity of Filipino cuisine.

Along with Pennsylvania, Kentucky, and Massachusetts, Virginia describes itself as a commonwealth. In reality, a commonwealth is no different from a state. But in the English of colonial times, “commonwealth” denoted something along the lines of “a state for the common good,” and had a more revolutionary connotation. The state was for the people, not […]

What happens when you've spent decades being the most reliable person in the room — and you finally stop to ask: reliable for whom?   In this warm, wide-ranging episode of Leaderspace, host Cathleen O'Sullivan is joined by Linda Misegadis — senior government strategist at UKG, global DEI ambassador, certified payroll professional, and host of the Her Resources Podcast. Linda built her career the way many high-achievers do: nose down, hard work, always available, always solving. She led one of the most complex technology change projects in Denver's public sector history and then walked into the VP of Sales of the company whose software she'd just implemented and told him, clearly and directly, that she didn't think they understood the public sector space at all. He offered her a job.   Linda and Cathleen explore what it costs to tie your identity to being the one everyone counts on, how introversion becomes a leadership superpower once you stop letting others use it as a label that limits you, and why the most important question in any career transition isn't what's next — it's who am I actually? They talk about the trap of availability culture, what burnout really looks like when you've built your reward system around being indispensable, and the slow, nonlinear work of separating your professional identity from your sense of self.   They also go deep on what it means to lead through complexity without consensus paralysis, how COVID quietly pushed Linda from observer to connector, and the particular challenge women still face in corporate life in 2026 — not just in being heard, but in being seen for the right things. This is a conversation about the courage it takes to stop performing reliability and start building something that actually belongs to you.   If you've ever been the go-to person, the Swiss Army knife, the one who always raises their hand — this one is for you. Cathleen's question for this episode: what is it costing you to keep staying quiet about something you've already noticed?   Episode Timeline:   00:00:00 Welcome and Introduction 00:02:38 Introducing Linda Misegadis 00:07:04 Heritage, Roots, and Identity 00:11:09 What Has Shaped Your Identity? 00:15:10 The Trap of Being the Reliable One 00:19:09 Who Is Linda Now? 00:21:39 AI, Layoffs, and the Human Side of Work 00:31:36 How COVID Made Linda a Connector 00:34:17 Introversion as a Leadership Strength 00:40:29 Leading Without a Title 00:44:00 The Audacious Move That Changed Everything 00:48:00 The Risk of Always Being the Problem Solver 00:53:46 The Reward Behind Constant Availability 01:00:52 How the Reward Has Shifted 01:04:14 Approaching Complex Problems 01:11:24 Women's Voices in Corporate Life — Still Not There Yet 01:13:36 One Piece of Advice for Women Entering Leadership Key Takeaways:   The Reliable One Is a Role, Not an Identity: Building your sense of self around being available to everyone is a reward system, not a foundation. Recognising what that role is costing you — in energy, in clarity, in career direction — is the first step to changing it. Introversion Is a Skill Gap, Not a Personality Sentence: Linda didn't network because she'd never been taught how, not because she was incapable. Once she separated the label from the limitation, she built a podcast, a community, and a career chapter on her own terms. Observation Is Underrated Leadership Data: Stepping back and watching — really watching — builds pattern recognition that others miss. The quietest person in the room often sees the most. Someone Has to Make the Call: Consensus has its place, but leadership means being willing to own a decision, not manage a committee. The people around you are counting on someone to choose. The New Reward Has to Be Real: When you stop being the one who solves everything, the satisfaction has to come from somewhere else. For Linda, it became the pride of watching her team step up. The reward needs to be replaced — not just removed. About Linda Misegadis:   Linda Misegadis is a Senior Government Strategist at UKG and Global Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging Ambassador, based in Colorado. She is a Certified Payroll Professional (CPP), Certified Public Manager (CPM), IPMA-CP, and Prosci Certified Change Manager who has spent her career helping organisations navigate complexity — and bring people with them through it. She previously served as Director of Citywide Payroll Operations and Administration for the City and County of Denver, where she led a workforce management deployment across 13,000 employees. Her defining career pivot came when she walked into the VP of Sales of the company whose software she had just implemented, told him plainly that she didn't think they understood the public sector space, and left with a job offer. She is also the co-host of the Her Resources Podcast.

Historic preservation is a field dedicated to safeguarding our cultural heritage, but the stability of jobs within this sector often hinges on government involvement. According to author Jeremy Wells, nearly three-quarters of all jobs in historic preservation are fundamentally designed to meet the needs of local, state, and federal government. This statistic underscores the dependence of the industry on government funding and initiatives and the need for preservation education to reflect this fact in the structure of their programs. "Managing the Magic of Old Places: Crafting Public Policies for People-Centered Historic Preservation," the subject of this episode, covers this topic and ways the preservation field can be more responsive to the communities they serve.Show Notes:Further Reading: “Reclaiming Time and Space”, a thesis by Kenyatta McCleanUses of Heritage by Laurajayne Smith Contemporary Theory of Conservation by Salvadore Munoz VinasPeople Centered Methodologies of Heritage Preservation: Exploring Emotional Attachments to Historic Urban Places by Rebecca MadginReimagining Heritage Interpretation: Enchanting the Past-Future by Russel StaifOur Unprotected Heritage: Whitewashing the Destruction of Our Cultural and Natural Environment by Thomas F.

Palestinian architect and artist Dima Srouji explores the systematic displacement of Palestinian material culture and the liberation lab working to bring it home. For over a century, archaeology in Palestine has been weaponized, used as a tool for land grabs and the erasure of contemporary identity. From ancient glass vessels held in Western museums to human remains stored in university basements, the physical history of Palestine has been excavated, categorized, and displaced. Dima discusses her work in restitching these archives through art and collaboration. By working with multi-generational artisans like the Twam family, who still possess the ancient know-how of glassblowing, she creates ghost objects that challenge the colonial narrative of a dead past.   00:00 Introduction 01:32 Architectural Education & the Spiritual Connection to the Land 07:30 The Liberation Lab 09:47 Ghost Objects: Restitching Material Heritage Through Palestinian Glass 12:28 The History of Colonial Archaeological Excavations 15:44 Challenging Museum Narratives 18:03 The Twam Family Workshop: Four Generations of Glassblowing in Jaba 21:28 Ancient History of Levantine Glass Fabrication 25:50 The Weaponization of Archaeology 29:47 Sebastia vs. the City of David 32:32 Saving Sebastia: Experimental Film as an Exercise in Creative Diplomacy 36:01 Reclaiming the Displaced Material Culture of Gaza 39:34 Excavated Human Remains 42:36 Rituals of Return 44:01 The Restorative Power of Broken Glass 48:43 Rememberment: A Form of Restitution 50:24 The Archive of the Palestine Exploration Fund 56:00 Future Projects and the Cosmic Mediterranean   Dima is an architect, artist, and researcher interested in the ground, objects, displacement, restitution, forgeries, and living archives. Dima leads the MA City Design studio focused on archaeological sites in Palestine as sites of urban struggle. Her practice explores the power of the ground, its strata, and its artefacts in revealing silenced narratives and embedded intergenerational memories. Dima holds an M.Arch from the Yale School of Architecture and a B. Arch (Hons) from Kingston School of Art. She founded Hollow Forms, a glass blowing project with the Twam family in Jaba', Palestine in 2016. She will be Jameel Fellow at the Victoria & Albert Museum in 2022.   Connect with Dima Srouji

Go Love Together looks at the three “Greats” in the New Testament - The Great Commandment , the Great Commission, and the Great Collaboration. We are all familiar with the Great Commission and the challenge to “Go.” There has been much taught on the Great Commandment and the need to go with “Love.” But it is the last part of Jesus' mission – which was Jesus' final prayer – that we have forgotten. It's the Great Collaboration – that we are to go in love Together! Check out week two of Go Love Together

Episode Summary:  In the coming months, secularists and progressives will be seeking to undermine the celebration of America's spiritual and biblical roots. For us and our families to respond winsomely and persuasively, we must know the facts and not just react with Christian spin, that we are a Christian nation. This episode seeks to equip us to think truthfully, i.e. with historic accuracy and the perspective of God's Word as we examine the complex issue: Is America a Christian nation?  For Further Prayerful Thought. Why might a black Christian who loves America find it difficult to hear a brother in Christ argue that America was founded as a Christian nation?What did you find most helpful about the religious beliefs of the five men who wrote the Declaration of Independence?If America was not founded by Christians as a Christian nation, why does it matter that we are rooted in a belief in God, recognition that human rights derive from God, and dependence upon him?How would you respond to a progressive friend who says that Christians who want to stop abortion are guilty of violating the constitutional principle of “the separation of church and state.”For the printed version of this message click here.For a summary of topics addressed by podcast series, click here.For FREE downloadable studies on men's issues click here.To make an online contribution to enable others to hear about the podcast: (Click link and scroll down to bottom left) 

Fluent Fiction - Danish: Heirlooms and Dreams: A Family's Journey to Unity Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/da/episode/2026-05-24-22-34-01-da Story Transcript:Da: Forårsduften fyldte luften på den gamle landejendom, hvor grønne marker strakte sig så langt øjet kunne se.En: The scent of spring filled the air on the old country estate, where green fields stretched as far as the eye could see.Da: Solen kastede bløde skygger på den gule lade, hvor Københavner-kartofler snart ville spirer frem.En: The sun cast soft shadows on the yellow barn, where Københavner-potatoes would soon sprout.Da: Det var her, Kasper, Freja og Mikkel mødtes for at tage stilling til deres afdøde bedstemors skæbne og beslutte gårdens fremtid.En: It was here that Kasper, Freja, and Mikkel met to determine their deceased grandmother's fate and decide the farm's future.Da: Kasper så ud over markerne med et ansvarsfuldt blik.En: Kasper looked out over the fields with a responsible gaze.Da: Han drømte om at genoplive farmen og beholde den i familien.En: He dreamed of reviving the farm and keeping it in the family.Da: "Vi kan gøre gården til noget særligt igen," sagde han ivrigt til sine søskende.En: "We can make the farm something special again," he eagerly said to his siblings.Da: Freja smilede trist, mens hun tog en slurk af sin kaffekop.En: Freja smiled sadly while she took a sip of her coffee cup.Da: "Jeg vil bare finde noget, der virkelig minder mig om mormor," sagde hun.En: "I just want to find something that truly reminds me of grandma," she said.Da: "Hun betød så meget."En: "She meant so much."Da: Mikkel skubbede til en bunke af gamle bøger i hjørnet af stuen.En: Mikkel pushed at a pile of old books in the corner of the living room.Da: "Vi kunne sælge stedet og rejse.En: "We could sell the place and travel.Da: Tænk på mulighederne, vi kunne få," sagde han med et glimt i øjet.En: Think of the opportunities we could have," he said with a glint in his eye.Da: Diskussionen bølgede frem og tilbage gennem formiddagen.En: The discussion flowed back and forth throughout the morning.Da: Kasper præsenterede sine planer for at renovere stuehuset og bygge en ny lade.En: Kasper presented his plans to renovate the farmhouse and build a new barn.Da: Freja gravede gennem rejsekufferter og kasser, på jagt efter minder, mens Mikkel beregnede de økonomiske gevinster ved at sælge.En: Freja dug through travel trunks and boxes, searching for memories, while Mikkel calculated the financial gains from selling.Da: Det blev til en ægte konflikt, da forskellighederne mellem dem blev mere og mere tydelige.En: It turned into a real conflict as their differences became more and more apparent.Da: Stemmerne steg, og skænderiet blev ophedet.En: Voices rose, and the argument heated up.Da: "Du tænker kun på penge, Mikkel!"En: "You only care about money, Mikkel!"Da: råbte Kasper frustreret.En: Kasper shouted in frustration.Da: Den spændte atmosfære blev brudt, da Freja åbnede en gammel kiste, der gemte sig i farmens skab.En: The tense atmosphere was broken when Freja opened an old chest hidden in the farm's closet.Da: Indeni fandt hun et brev samt omhyggeligt rullet samling af glycinestokke.En: Inside, she found a letter and a carefully rolled collection of wisteria stalks.Da: Brevet var skrevet af deres mormor, og det talte om hendes drømme for gården.En: The letter was written by their grandmother, and it spoke of her dreams for the farm.Da: Hun ønskede, at den skulle være et sted for familien at finde ro og sammenhold.En: She wished it to be a place for the family to find peace and unity.Da: Læsningen af brevet bragte stilhed.En: Reading the letter brought silence.Da: Hver af dem indså, at de havde fokus på deres egne interesser uden at tænke på helheden.En: Each of them realized they had been focusing on their own interests without considering the whole.Da: "Måske kan vi finde en måde at ære mormors ønsker og samtidig tænke på vores fremtid," foreslog Freja blidt.En: "Perhaps we can find a way to honor grandma's wishes and still think about our future," suggested Freja gently.Da: De tre søskende blev enige om en plan, der gav dem alle noget af det, de ønskede.En: The three siblings agreed on a plan that gave each of them something they wanted.Da: Gården ville blive renoveret, som Kasper drømte om, nogle jordstykker ville blive solgt, og en minderute til ære for deres mormor blev tilføjet.En: The farm would be renovated as Kasper dreamed, some parcels of land would be sold, and a memorial route in honor of their grandmother would be added.Da: På den måde sikrede de, at mormors ånd levede videre, og deres egne behov blev mødt.En: In this way, they ensured that grandma's spirit lived on and their own needs were met.Da: Med forståelse og respekt besluttede de at fortsætte sammen, med hver deres drømme i hjertet, mens forårets varme kærtegnede jorden udenfor som et tegn på nye begyndelser.En: With understanding and respect, they decided to move forward together, each with their dreams in their hearts, while the warmth of spring caressed the earth outside as a sign of new beginnings.

PSA just announced massive extensions to their turnaround times, sparking fears that the grading giant might be forced to shut down its value tiers—a move that historically preceded a major card market decline in 2021. Today, we break down PSA's staggering $200 million expansion plan and ask the ultimate question: If PSA halts submissions again, will the entire sports card market crash?Alongside the PSA grading crisis, we are tackling the most polarizing topics in the hobby right now. We discuss a controversial new card show policy that completely bans the sale of retail sealed wax to combat flippers, analyze Victor Wembanyama's explosive market surge after taking Game 1 from the Thunder, and debate whether "eye appeal" grading designations actually add financial value to modern 1/1 sports cards.In this episode, we cover:The PSA Grading Crisis: Why PSA drastically shifted Value Bulk turnaround times to 140–160 business days and increased submission minimums to 50 cards. We analyze whether Collectors' massive $200 million investment (adding 800,000 sq ft. and 1,000 new jobs) will be enough to prevent a total service pause.Banning Retail Flippers: Maryland's Feel Good Gaming Show recently banned vendors and attendees from buying and selling current retail sealed wax. We debate if this is a brilliant move to save the show experience, or if it misses the mark entirely—and whether sports card shows should adopt it.Wemby's Market Explosion: Victor Wembanyama's card market is up 85% year-over-year with nearly 1,000 sales a day. Following massive $500K+ sales for his National Treasures Logoman 1/1 and Revolution Green Kaboom 1/1, we discuss if he is officially overtaking Shohei Ohtani as the face of the modern hobby.The Modern "Eye Appeal" Debate: Does an MBA Gold eye-appeal sticker actually matter on a 1/1 modern card? We break down the $838,750 Heritage auction sale of the 2013 Bowman Chrome Aaron Judge Superfractor and discuss if the hobby is thinking about eye appeal all wrong.Dive into the data and join the conversation in the comments section with your take on PSA's new turnaround times and Wembanyama's historic market run.First time customers use promo code: SCI at ArenaClub.comShop CardsHQ Inventory Online ►: https://bit.ly/cardshqTrack card prices & your collection with Market Movers ►: https://bit.ly/marketmoversappJoin CardsHQ Breaks on Whatnot ►: https://bit.ly/cardshqbreaksJoin CardsHQ Shop on Whatnot ►: https://bit.ly/cardshqshopJoin CardsHQ Blitz on Whatnot ►: https://bit.ly/cardshqblitzJoin CardsHQ Hoops on Whatnot ►: https://bit.ly/cardshqhoopsJoin CardsHQ Poke on Whatnot ►: https://bit.ly/cardshqpokeDiscounted PSA/SGC Card Grading ►: https://bit.ly/gradingserviceDownload our Apps!SCI App (Apple) ►: https://apple.co/3riGbb5SCI App (Google) ►: https://bit.ly/SCIAPPGooglePlayFollow Us:SCI Instagram ►: https://bit.ly/SCIIGSCI Twitter ►: https://bit.ly/scitweetsSCI Facebook ►: https://bit.ly/FBSCIPageGeoff's IG ►: https://bit.ly/itsgeoffwilsonGeoff's YouTube ►: https://bit.ly/ytgeoffCard Crew YouTube ►: https://bit.ly/cardcrewMarket Movers YouTube ►: https://bit.ly/marketmoversyt

Sea levels are rising ever faster in the face of climate change, and by the year 2100 many historic properties could be underwater.  Recent Heritage Conservation graduate Alex Clark wrote her thesis on the Adamson House in Malibu, built in 1929 and famed for its Malibu Potteries tile. In her thesis, Heritage at the Water's Edge. Adaptive Release at the Adamson House, Alex outlines the site's layered history and current use as a museum. Alex tells producer Willa Seidenberg how coastal erosion, storms, king tides, and projected sea-level rise could place the house and parts of the coastal highway underwater in a few short decades. She evaluates past and proposed mitigations and advocates for “adaptive release,” or actively managing the inevitable decay or loss of a historic site. See episode page for photos, resources, and transcript.Connect with us on Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn!

Character creation in most games is where heroes are born. In Blades in the Dark, character creation is where we accidentally founded a sewer cult dedicated to a giant vampire bat god, befriended ghosts, picked fights with spirit traffickers, and collectively agreed that getting high on our own alchemical supply was a perfectly reasonable life choice. This was not a descent into darkness. This was an enthusiastic sprint. Show Notes Part 2 of our Blades in the Dark How to Play series was supposed to be about character creation. It technically was. We built characters, chose backgrounds, picked special abilities, and put together our crew. We just happened to do it while derailing through Texas town names, cult theology, ghost smuggling economics, and whether a sewer hideout was the most cult appropriate headquarters possible. It was. Obviously. We dug into how character creation works in Blades in the Dark and immediately found one of the system's strengths. Building a character is fast, but every choice matters. Heritage, background, actions, rivals, friends, vices, and special abilities all tie directly back into the fiction. Instead of feeling like disconnected mechanics, everything pushes the story forward. Tyler leaned hard into the supernatural with a Whisper tied to ghosts and spirit trafficking, while Ash built an alchemical menace who absolutely should not be trusted around poisons, drugs, or open flames. Together they somehow arrived at the most natural conclusion imaginable and founded a strange sewer cult devoted to Camazotz, complete with ghost contacts, cultists, and a plan that will almost certainly end badly for everyone involved. What stood out most was how collaborative crew creation feels. The hideout, reputation, deity, allies, rivals, and upgrades all turned into worldbuilding on the fly. By the end we were not just holding character sheets. We had a weird little organization with history, enemies, goals, and enough red flags to concern every authority in Doskvol. Which means we are probably doing it right. Key Takeaways Character creation in Blades in the Dark is quick but tightly connected to the game world Heritage and background choices help define roleplay hooks and advancement opportunities Action ratings shape both character strengths and resistance mechanics Special abilities immediately establish each character's role and style Friends, rivals, and vices create built in story hooks from session one Tyler created a ghost focused Whisper with spirit themed connections and supernatural abilities Ash built an alchemical Leech centered around crafting, toxins, and chaos Crew creation adds shared worldbuilding through hideouts, reputation, contacts, and upgrades The group chose a Cult crew operating from a sewer hideout beneath the city Camazotz became the cult's chosen deity because apparently subtlety was never an option The episode accidentally became a masterclass in collaborative storytelling through character creation The cult may be strange, but at least everyone agreed the sewer lair was perfect Welcome to the RPGBOT Podcast.

Wir springen in dieser Folge ins Jahr 1438. Die norditalienische Stadt Brescia wird von Streitkräften Mailands belagert, und der einzige Ausweg: Entsatzung durch Venedig, dem sich Brescia in den 1420er Jahren unterworfen hat. Das Problem: der einzig sinnvolle Weg für Venedig das zu tun führt über den Gardasee, der allerdings im Süden, genau dort, wo venezianische Schiffe Zugang hätten, von Mailand kontrolliert wird. Also wird beschlossen, einen anderen Weg zu gehen: über die Berge! Wir sprechen über diesen Plan, über Venedig als Landmacht und vor allem über die mächtigen Söldnerführer jener Zeit, die Condottieri. // Erwähnte Folgen - GAG389: Spieglein, Spieglein an der Wand – https://gadg.fm/389 - GAG429: Der Eimerkrieg – https://gadg.fm/429 - GAG467: Das Leben der Lucrezia Borgia – https://gadg.fm/467 - GAG67: Palladio, der erfolgreichste Architekt aller Zeiten – https://gadg.fm/67 - GAG447: Christina, Hans und Heinrich oder Wie ein Gemälde entsteht – https://gadg.fm/447 - GAG342: Das Stockholmer Blutbad – https://gadg.fm/342 // Literatur - La battaglia di Desenzano del 1439 e la Val Lagarina (Galeas per montes), ‚Quaderni del Borgoantico‘, 17, 2016, pp. 59-61“. - Andenna, Giancarlo.

The tiny town of Dixville Notch, New Hampshire is located just 20 miles south of the Canadian boarder. Home to an idyllic hotel known for its skiing and golfing, the town itself had a population of four. At the time of the 2020 census.  But if you happen to be one of those residents, your election day experience is a bit different from most. At the stroke of midnight, you enter the polling place, set up in one of the rooms of hotel. New Hampshire law states that polls can close if all registered voter have cast ballots. And so, a few minutes later, once all have voted, the polls close. This tradition of Midnight Voting, in place since the 1960s, makes Dixville Notch the first polling place to report results in the New Hampshire primary.  Midnight voting first came into existence to accommodate the schedule of railway workers, who were often unavailable to vote during normal hours. It's an example of local officials ensuring that the vote is both fair and accessible for voters. Election Integrity is a high priority here at Heritage, and we have been very excited to welcome Election integrity expert Don Palmer to the team. I sat down with Don to talk about his thoughts leading into 2026, 2028, and beyond.  ---Email us with thoughts, questions, or suggestions: HeritageExplains@heritage.org  --- Follow Don Palmer on X: https://x.com/VotingGuy

At Truist's annual meeting, the company faced a shareholder proposal from the Heritage Foundation via its Free Enterprise Initiative over brand politicization. Stefan Padfield presented for Heritage, urging the company to choose political neutrality in key areas, including charitable policies. "While our nation has come to realize that nice-sounding phrases like “diversity, equity, and inclusion” apparently routinely mean discrimination in practice, Truist has unfortunately been associated with such initiatives. Truist scores 100 on the HRC’s CEI. And while the green energy transition has arguably been exposed as a utopian endeavor that leaves Americans poorer and vulnerable to foreign adversaries, Truist apparently maintains commitments furthering that agenda."
