Je zit niet per se slecht, maar ook niet goed en juist dat vreet aan je. In deze aflevering deelt Thomas waarom blijven waar alles vertrouwd is vaak precies is wat je klein houdt, en waarom afstand nemen soms de enige manier is om weer helder te zien.Socials: YouTube:Youtube.com/@thomasvdleck/videosInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thomasvdleck/

Andrew Hypes has spent the last two years travelling all over the world: Paris, London Romania, Vegas, Poland and California, to name a few. After growing up in Waynesboro, Virginia, population 23K, it's a little surreal: working in Dr. Dre's studio, flying on private planes, standing in front of the Eiffel Tower – the real one, not the one at Kings Dominion – all stemming from his role as the official DJ for Justin Timberlake's recently wrapped “The Forget Tomorrow World Tour.”

Woodstock is gearing up for its first-ever two-day Hometown Holidays celebration, and excitement is in the air. In this episode of The Valley Today, host Janet Michael talks with Jen Dufner, the town's marketing and events coordinator, to discuss the expanded festivities, the challenges of organizing such an event, and the unique experiences awaiting residents and visitors alike. Expanding the Holiday Magic For the first time, Hometown Holidays will span both Saturday and Sunday, offering more opportunities for families and friends to enjoy the festivities. Jen explains that the decision to extend the event was driven by the packed December calendar and the desire to give everyone a chance to participate. "There's always so much going on during the holidays," she notes. "Having that extra day means people don't have to choose between events—they can do it all." Vendors, Young Entrepreneurs, and Local Flavor This year, the event boasts 17 vendors, up from 13 last year, and introduces a heated tent to keep attendees cozy. Notably, the young entrepreneurs' market, organized in partnership with the local chamber, will take place on Saturday only. Jen encourages everyone to carve out time to support these creative youngsters, who bring fresh ideas and products to the community. Additionally, a few vendors will only be present on one of the two days, adding a sense of urgency and variety to the shopping experience. Navigating Logistics and Weather Organizing a two-day outdoor event is no small feat. Jen and Janet discuss the logistical hurdles, from coordinating vendor schedules to preparing for unpredictable weather. The team has planned for every scenario, including a heated tent next to Woodstock Brewhouse and clear signage to guide visitors. Updates and maps will be posted on the Woodstock Enhancement Facebook page, ensuring everyone stays informed. Santa, Swing, and Sweet Treats No holiday celebration would be complete without Santa Claus, and Woodstock's event is no exception. Santa will be available for photos and wish lists both days, with slightly different hours each day. On Saturday, attendees can also enjoy a special performance by the Yesterday Swing Orchestra, an 18-piece ensemble bringing classic Christmas carols to life inside the brewhouse. The festivities don't stop there. The beloved cookie crawl returns, featuring 15 participating businesses and bakeries. For $25, ticket holders can collect a cookie from each location—no baking required. Jen and Janet share laughs over their own baking mishaps, agreeing that "you can't taste ugly" when it comes to homemade treats. Celebrating Local Businesses and Community Spirit Throughout the conversation, both women highlight the vibrant mix of shops and eateries lining Main Street and Court Street. From bookstores and art galleries to cafes and ice cream parlors, Woodstock's downtown offers something for everyone. The event also shines a spotlight on local artists and entrepreneurs who may not have storefronts, giving them a platform to share their talents. A Weekend to Remember As the conversation wraps up, Jen expresses her excitement for the expanded event and the magic it brings to downtown Woodstock. With a growing roster of vendors, special performances, and a strong sense of community, Hometown Holidays promises to be a memorable weekend for all.

professorjrod@gmail.comRemember the thrill of logging on, the greeting of “You've got mail,” and the sense that a whole new world lived behind a phone line? We go back to the moment when America Online turned the internet from a niche hobby into a daily ritual—then trace how that same empire struggled to adapt when broadband, search, and mobile changed the rules overnight.We start with Quantum Link, the Commodore-era service that quietly sketched the social web before the web existed: avatars, chat rooms, message boards, and downloadable content. That people-first insight shaped AOL's rise. With a friendly interface, big buttons, keywords, and the most aggressive distribution strategy in tech history—those omnipresent CDs—AOL onboarded a generation. Chat rooms ignited communities and culture; AIM taught presence, status, and direct messaging; AOL News, Sports, Music, Games, and Hometown made dial-up feel like a full digital city. Behind the scenes, the company wrestled with an unprecedented scaling problem—millions of concurrent dial-up calls and a nationwide modem network—leading to the infamous busy-signal crisis that defined an era.Then the tides turned. Always-on broadband undercut AOL's dial-up economics, the AOL–Time Warner merger collided with culture shock and the dot-com crash, and search engines—especially Google—rewired how people discovered information. AIM's early dominance faded as messaging moved to mobile with encryption, identity, and cross-device sync. We lay out the timeline, the missteps, and the strategic blind spots, but also the innovations that still shape today's internet: social graphs from buddy lists, status updates from away messages, curated portals evolving into modern feeds, and growth driven by simple design and relentless distribution.If you want the real story of how the web became social—and a clear look at what happens when a platform shift meets a company built for the previous wave—this journey through AOL's rise, reign, and reckoning is for you.

Have you ever noticed, that the more familiar you become with something, the easier it becomes to ignore it, undervalue it, or even misuse it? It's not that the thing lost its power. It's that you stopped seeing its value. Do we do that with Jesus? Listen to Pastor Jay as he kicks off this new series, "Christmas in my Hometown" by digging into Mark 6:1-6 and how Jesus was perceived in His hometown.
