This Day in Legal History: January 6 InsurrectionOn January 6, 2021, a significant and unprecedented legal and constitutional crisis unfolded in the United States. As a joint session of Congress convened to certify the Electoral College results of the 2020 presidential election, a mob of supporters of then-President Donald Trump stormed the U.S. Capitol. The attack followed weeks of false claims about election fraud and a rally earlier that day in which Trump urged his supporters to “fight like hell.” The violent breach forced lawmakers to evacuate, delayed the certification of Joe Biden's victory, and resulted in deaths, injuries, and extensive property damage.Legally, the event triggered a cascade of consequences. Hundreds of participants were arrested and charged with offenses ranging from unlawful entry and assaulting federal officers to seditious conspiracy. High-profile members of far-right groups like the Oath Keepers and Proud Boys were prosecuted, with some leaders convicted of seditious conspiracy, a Civil War-era charge rarely used in modern times. The attack also led to Trump's second impeachment, the first time in U.S. history a president was impeached twice. He was charged with incitement of insurrection, although the Senate ultimately acquitted him.In the broader legal aftermath, January 6 prompted legislative and judicial scrutiny of the Electoral Count Act of 1887, with Congress passing reforms in 2022 to clarify the vice president's limited role in certifying election results. The attack also raised questions about the limits of First Amendment protections when political speech turns into violent action, and about the potential disqualification from office under Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, which prohibits insurrectionists from holding public office.Barry Pollack, the U.S. attorney best known for securing WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange's release deal, is now representing Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro in a high-profile U.S. narcotics case. Maduro, who was captured in a U.S. military operation along with his wife, pleaded not guilty this week in a Manhattan federal court to charges of leading a cocaine trafficking conspiracy involving guerrilla groups and drug cartels. Pollack plans to challenge the legality of Maduro's capture—calling it a “military abduction”—and is also expected to raise arguments about foreign leader immunity.These arguments face steep legal obstacles. The U.S. no longer recognizes Maduro as Venezuela's legitimate president, having rejected the results of his 2018 re-election. Furthermore, U.S. courts have historically been reluctant to dismiss cases based on how a defendant was brought to U.S. soil. Still, Pollack's involvement signals a serious defense strategy grounded in international legal questions and executive immunity claims.Pollack's experience with politically charged and internationally sensitive cases is extensive. He recently helped negotiate Assange's release from a British prison through a plea deal that allowed the WikiLeaks founder to avoid U.S. imprisonment and return to Australia. His track record also includes work on behalf of a former CIA officer and an acquitted Enron executive.Assange's lawyer Barry Pollack to fight Maduro's US narcotics charges | ReutersWith a new Republican majority appointed by President Donald Trump, the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) is expected to shift sharply away from pro-union policies that defined its recent Democratic era. After nearly a year of paralysis caused by Trump's unprecedented firing of Democrat Gwynne Wilcox—leaving the board without the quorum needed to issue decisions—the Senate confirmed two Republican nominees in December 2025, restoring its ability to act and giving conservatives control of the five-member board for the first time since 2021.Key Biden-era decisions are now vulnerable to rollback. These include expanded union rights such as representation without secret-ballot elections, bans on mandatory anti-union employer meetings, and broader remedies for fired workers. Critics say these moves strayed from precedent; federal courts are reviewing them, but outcomes will vary by jurisdiction unless the Supreme Court weighs in.Union election rules are also likely to change. Under Biden, the NLRB accelerated the election process and made it harder for decertification efforts to proceed—moves unions supported to counter employer delays. Republicans are expected to reverse these rules, potentially making it easier to dissolve existing unions.The board's political independence is also under scrutiny. A court recently upheld Trump's removal of Wilcox, challenging legal protections meant to shield NLRB members from dismissal without cause. If the Supreme Court supports similar arguments in upcoming cases, the NLRB's structural independence could be weakened, raising concerns about politicization and fairness in labor adjudications.Meanwhile, lawsuits by major companies like Amazon and SpaceX are targeting the board's role as both prosecutor and judge in its own cases, claiming constitutional violations. If courts side with these challengers, it could force Congress to restructure the agency—perhaps by limiting its powers or shifting cases to federal courts.NLRB poised for major policy shifts in 2026 with new Trump-appointed majority | ReutersWisconsin Judge Hannah Dugan resigned following her conviction for obstructing the arrest of a migrant in her courtroom, a case that became entangled in broader national tensions over immigration enforcement. Dugan, elected to the Milwaukee County Circuit Court in 2016, was found guilty in December 2025 of helping Eduardo Flores-Ruiz, a Mexican national facing domestic violence charges, evade U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents who were present at the courthouse. She had denied wrongdoing, claiming she followed a courthouse policy requiring staff to notify supervisors of ICE's presence.Her conviction drew sharp criticism from Republican lawmakers, with some calling for impeachment, especially as the Trump administration intensifies efforts to crack down on local interference with federal immigration policy. Dugan had been suspended from her judicial duties during the legal proceedings. Prosecutors framed the case as a warning that public officials are not above the law, highlighting the Justice Department's willingness to pursue charges against judges who obstruct federal enforcement actions.Before serving as a judge, Dugan led a local Catholic Charities chapter that provided refugee resettlement services. Her background and the nature of the charges underscored the ongoing conflict between local protections for immigrants and federal efforts to expand deportations.Wisconsin judge resigns after being convicted of obstructing migrant arrest | ReutersMy column this week is on a novel cruise tax. Hawaii's attempt to expand its transient accommodations tax to include cruise ship passengers hit a temporary roadblock when the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals issued a New Year's Eve stay, pausing enforcement of the new “green fee.” The law, which took effect January 1, aims to place cruise cabins on equal tax footing with hotels by imposing an 11% tax on the portion of a cruise fare linked to overnight stays while docked in Hawaiian ports. Hawaii argues this is a general, nondiscriminatory tax on short-term lodging rather than a fee tied to the ship itself. To bolster its legal case, the state is framing cruise cabins as equivalent to hotel rooms, and emphasizing that the tax is based on services consumed on land, not the ship's movement or port access.The cruise industry, however, contends the tax violates the Constitution's Tonnage Clause, which prohibits states from levying duties on ships for merely entering or staying in port. They've also invoked the Rivers and Harbors Appropriation Act of 1884, which restricts port-related charges not linked to specific services. But Hawaii's defense is that the tax is not about access or vessel status—it is a consumption tax on guests staying overnight, regardless of whether the bed is on land or in a moored ship. The policy avoids targeting ships and instead captures revenue from tourism, aligning maritime and land-based lodging under a consistent legal framework.The Department of Justice has joined the cruise industry's challenge, suggesting the issue's seriousness. If litigation continues, the U.S. Supreme Court may ultimately decide whether this tax model is constitutionally sound. Still, Hawaii's approach—drafting a neutral, consumption-based tax rather than a maritime-specific charge—may serve as a blueprint for other coastal states looking to tap into cruise tourism revenue without triggering constitutional violations.

Salmos 81:16“Los sustentaría Dios con lo mejor del trigo, y con miel de la peña los saciaría”.¿Dado el tamaño del cerebro, podría una abeja de miel reconocer un rostro humano? ¿Y si una abeja podría reconocer rostros humanos específicos, como podría un evolucionista explicar este tipo de habilidad?Los investigadores que estudian la abeja y la visión humana señalan que no habría ninguna presión evolucionista para que las abejas aprendan a reconocer personas específicas. La predicción científica sería por lo tanto que las abejas no reconocerían los rostros humanos. Para probar esta predicción los investigadores colocaron retratos de rostros humanos sobre los alimentadores de abejas. El mismo rostro humano siempre se encontraba sobre el alimentador que dispensaba una solución dulce. Una variedad de otros rostros fueron colocadas sobre dispensadores que dispensaban, digamos, quinina, una solución con sabor amargo. Las abejas rápidamente aprendieron a asociar un rostro humano en particular con la solución dulce. Inclusive cuando los investigadores mezclaron los alimentadores, las abejas rápidamente regresaban al alimentador con el rostro familiar. Luego removieron los alimentadores y dejaron sólo los retratos para que encuentren las abejas. Ochenta por ciento de las abejar todavía se enfocaron en el rostro que había estado en el alimentador de azúcar. La evolución esperaría resultados al azar, de ser así, los retratos de los rostros no tendrían ningún efecto.Sin embargo, se puede esperar de nuestro poderoso Creador que dio a estas abejas cualquier habilidad que Él quisiera. En este caso, aparentemente Él vio un buen propósito de otorgar a las abejas esta habilidad inesperada.Oración: Padre, Te agradezco por todos los buenos regalos que Tú nos das a través de Tu creación. Especialmente te agradezco por Tu salvación. Amén.Ref: Science News, S. Milius, “Face Time.” To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1235/29?v=20251111

Send us a textIn this Rugby Coach Weekly podcast, Dan Cottrell sits down with Darren Rea, John Peel, and Gareth Lewis to explore how inclusive SEND rugby has grown from a few Sunday sessions into a powerful community movement known as KatieFest.Together, they share how simple, values-led coaching has created safe, joyful, and challenging rugby environments for players with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities, while also bringing parents, carers, coaches, and clubs closer together. The conversation goes beyond drills and sessions to unpack confidence, belonging, routine, and why rugby is uniquely placed to adapt without losing its essence.From mash-ups with mainstream teams to national recognition and the ripple effect spreading across clubs and counties, this is a story about coaching with empathy, ambition, and belief. It is not about doing something “special,” but about making inclusion normal, visible, and lasting, and showing how rugby can genuinely be a sport for all.https://www.facebook.com/groups/1477604696958236/https://checkout.justgiving.com/c/3830429

Innovation doesn't suffer from a lack of talent — it suffers from a lack of access.In Part 1 of this powerful two-part conversation, Dr. Alisa sits down with Race to Innovation co-authors Dr. John Bamforth and Dr. Roy Zwahlen to unpack what they call America's innovation deficit — and why unlocking overlooked potential is not just a moral imperative, but an economic one.This episode dives deep into the hidden history of Black entrepreneurship, the mindset shifts required to recognize undervalued opportunities, and the underestimated role of enclaves — communities, networks, and institutions that quietly fuel innovation when mainstream systems fall short.You'll hear how innovation has always existed in marginalized communities, why it has often gone unseen, and what leaders, investors, and entrepreneurs must do differently if they want to build sustainable, scalable impact.This is not theory. This is strategy. And it sets the foundation for the ownership, legacy, and acceleration conversation coming in Part 2.Learn more about Race to Innovation: Unleashing the Power of Entrepreneurship for Everyone and connect with co-authors Dr. John Bamforth and Dr. Roy Zwahlen.Explore the book, the research, and the ideas behind inclusive entrepreneurship and innovation:

What does a year of growth really look like when you step away from the highlight reel and tell the truth? As we reach the end of 2025, we wanted to pause and pull back the curtain on what this year has genuinely been like for us behind the scenes. This episode is an honest, reflective conversation about the reality of running a values led coaching business through a year of challenge, change, and deep learning. We talk openly about the tension between what people often see from the outside and what it has actually felt like to be inside the business. This year has asked a lot of us. There have been moments of momentum and celebration alongside periods of complexity, uncertainty, and sustained effort that few people ever witness. We reflect on how a trip to Dubai at the start of the year became a catalyst for significant shifts in our thinking. Stepping into a different environment gave us the space to see long standing business bottlenecks with fresh eyes. What had felt heavy and immovable suddenly became solvable. That experience reshaped how we approached systems, automation, and the role technology plays in supporting rather than draining a coaching business. We share what it took to bring our Neurodivergent Inclusive Coaching programme to life, both in its full facilitated form and later through the Essentials offering. These programmes hold enormous meaning for us, not only because of their impact on coaches and clients, but because of the care, collaboration, and emotional labour involved in creating them well. This year reminded us why programme creation is so demanding and why integrity in delivery matters deeply to us. Much of 2025 has been about strengthening the foundations of the business. We talk about the unglamorous but essential work of refining processes, documenting systems, onboarding team members, and rebuilding parts of the business from the ground up to support scale. This included changing payment systems, migrating our website from co.uk to com, securing trademarks, and rethinking how we structure qualifications and CPD. Alongside all of this, there has been personal growth. We reflect on stepping back into facilitation, reconnecting with learners, and the fulfilment that comes from being closer to the heart of the work. We also share how this year has prompted bigger questions about brand identity, marketing, and how we want to be known as a global coaching organisation. This episode is an invitation to reflect on your own year with honesty and compassion. Whether you are running a coaching business, leading in an organisation, or navigating change, we hope our reflections offer reassurance, perspective, and a reminder that progress is often quieter and messier than it appears.   Timestamps: 00:00 Welcome and why we reflect at the end of each year 01:24 Why 2025 felt challenging as well as successful 01:54 The Dubai trip that changed how we saw our business 02:53 Gaining fresh perspective on systems and processes 05:17 Launching our Neurodivergent Inclusive Coaching programme 06:42 Creating accessible pathways through Essentials 08:04 Rebuilding systems and standard operating procedures 09:52 Moving from co.uk to com and what it represented 11:48 Returning to facilitation and reconnecting with learners 14:32 Securing trademarks and protecting the brand 15:29 Refreshing our ILM Level 3 coaching qualification 16:55 Corporate partnerships and ripple effects of coaching 18:22 Scaling responsibly and supporting hundreds of learners 21:29 Looking ahead to 2026 with clarity and optimism   Key Lessons Learned: Stepping away from the day to day can unlock solutions that feel impossible when you stay too close Strong systems are not restrictive, they create freedom and sustainability Inclusive programme design requires time, care, and collaboration Scaling a coaching business often means rebuilding rather than adding on Reconnecting with clients and learners keeps the heart of the work alive Brand decisions are as emotional as they are strategic Continuous improvement is demanding but deeply worthwhile   Links and Resources: www.igcompany.com/ilmcall www.mycoachingcourse.com    Keywords: coaching business growth, behind the scenes coaching, neurodivergent inclusive coaching, coaching qualifications UK, coaching CPD programmes, emotional coaching practice, coaching business systems, coach training programmes, coaching leadership development, The Coaching Crowd podcast,

Sermon from December 28, 2025 by Barb Huitema.

Send us a textWhat if accessibility came first and everything else got better because of it? That's the idea we rally around as Sara Bradford, aka SJ Childs—AuDHD Advocate and creator of Stream-Able Live and the SJ Childs Global Network—lays out a clear, urgent case for building inclusion into the foundation of our products, events, and stories. With one in four people in the United States living with a disability today and more than two billion projected globally by 2050, the numbers alone demand a redesign of how we create and share experiences.We unpack what an access-first world looks like in practice. From live captions that are accurate and customizable to typography choices that improve readability, from seamless screen reader support to predictable navigation patterns, every choice is a lever that opens the door wider. Sara explains how Stream-Able Live hardwires these levers into the platform so creators don't need permission or add-ons to be included. The result is not just better accessibility; it's better usability for everyone and a healthier creative ecosystem where disabled creators can lead and shape culture.Beyond the interface, we talk about accessibility as culture, policy, and strategy. Inclusion first means planning events with access in mind, budgeting for interpretation, writing alt text as standard, and treating transcripts as part of the content, not a footnote. It also means acknowledging the business upside: when we leave people out, we leave innovation on the table. Inclusive design expands audiences, reduces support costs, strengthens brand trust, and surfaces new ideas that only appear when more people can fully participate.If you're ready to move from compliance to creativity, from retrofits to inclusive defaults, this conversation is your nudge.

Massimo Felice Nisticò"All Inclusive"Rubbettino Editorewww.store.rubbettinoeditore.itNel bagliore sospeso della Baia de Ramla, Matteo Massifeni, giovane scrittore in cerca di verità, accetta un lavoro stagionale in un resort che promette il sogno perfetto: All Inclusive. Ma dietro l'apparenza di un paradiso artificiale si apre un labirinto di inganni e specchi. Nella comunità di personaggi che lo circondano ‒ l'editore, il direttore, l'antropologo, la donna dagli occhi di tempesta ‒ ogni incontro diventa un frammento di rivelazione, una ferita da cui filtra la luce. Tra ironia e disincanto, All Inclusive è il racconto di una discesa nella verità, dove l'uomo scopre che la realtà è solo una trama di percezioni e che l'unica forma di libertà possibile è la consapevolezza di sé.Massimo Felice NisticòChirurgo ospedaliero ha pubblicato la raccolta di racconti Un'altra stagione (Iride 2010, Premio Cesare Pavese) e per Rubbettino i romanzi Carne (2012, finalista Premio Carver), Sono finite le stelle cadenti (2014) e Nameless (2023).Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.it/

Durante o programa da Escola do Amor Responde, Carolina pediu ajuda para deixar de ser ciumenta. Ela comentou que encontrou um vídeo do Casal Blindado, no qual se falava sobre ciúmes. Disse também que está fazendo terapia (não a Terapia do Amor) e realizando estudos relacionados ao assunto para não acabar com o relacionamento. Ela está há cerca de três anos com o parceiro, e eles já estão noivos.Carolina é insegura e muito ciumenta, e isso tem atrapalhado bastante a relação. Ela considera isso como uma doença e afirma não ver apoio por parte do parceiro. Inclusive, o noivo a critica, pois considera normais as atitudes que ele tem, como manter amizades femininas, o que a incomoda. Ela perguntou se deve continuar em um relacionamento movido pelo amor ou pelas dúvidas. Carolina disse que não consegue tomar uma decisão sozinha.O que faltaAinda hoje, Clarisse perguntou o que fazer para o relacionamento ser duradouro, pois sempre se sente usada. Em todos os namoros que tem, ela é deixada ou trocada.

Neste programa, o aluno Gustavo disse que o relacionamento entrou em colapso há cerca de um ano. Durante esse tempo, eles terminaram e voltaram três vezes. Inclusive, ele chegou a tentar outros relacionamentos, mas, segundo ele, nunca deixou de amar a mãe de sua filha. Ele pontuou outras questões; inclusive, disse que a traiu duas vezes, e isso lhe gerou muito sofrimento. Houve também ocasiões em que eles voltaram, mas a companheira continuava na “gandaia”.Com a intenção de definir a situação do casal e acabar com as brigas, Gustavo pegou um par de alianças e pediu a mão dela em casamento perante os sogros. Ela diz que o ama, mas não quer olhar nos olhos dele. O aluno está angustiado, está construindo uma casa pensando nos dois, e perguntou se desiste ou luta por esse amor.Muito ciumentaNa sequência, Kelly está casada há pouco tempo e é muito ciumenta.

No programa de hoje, Renato Cardoso compartilhou com os alunos que uma das habilidades básicas do amor inteligente é a comunicação eficaz. Na oportunidade, o professor compartilhou um trecho de uma palestra recente da Terapia do Amor, no Templo de Salomão, em São Paulo, em que ele e a esposa, Cristiane Cardoso, explicaram o que isso quer dizer. Confira na íntegra pelo UNIVER Vídeo.Convite especialParticipe, nesta quinta-feira (25), da Terapia do Amor, no Templo de Salomão (SP), excepcionalmente às 18h, com o Partir do Pão. Essa será a última semana do propósito de cortar as raízes negativas.Gastou tudoAinda neste programa, Alex compartilhou que, no serviço em que trabalha, teve acesso ao “mercado financeiro” — em outras palavras, à tentativa de ganhar dinheiro com investimentos — e que isso sempre foi um sonho de criança, mas esse sonho foi se desmoronando cada vez mais, a ponto de afetar a renda familiar, o dinheiro do aluguel e do leite da filha, o que está acabando com o relacionamento dele.Contudo, Alex disse que não está conseguindo se desvencilhar desse problema. A esposa já conversou com ele, mas nada resolve. Inclusive, ele pegou empréstimos no nome dela, com outras pessoas, sem que ela soubesse. Ele perguntou aos professores o que fazer nessa situação. Ademais, Alex comentou que está afastado da igreja.Bem-vindos à Escola do Amor Responde, confrontando os mitos e a desinformação nos relacionamentos.

As we celebrate five years of the Healing Medicine podcast, this episode is a reflection on what has truly sustained us—intention, alignment, and choosing with awareness.  Together, we explore how consistency rooted in love, not obligation, leads to energy, creativity, and sustainability. We share personal stories about letting go, taking pauses, and returning to what feels alive.  This conversation is also a joyful announcement: our Connect in Nature Retreat is returning July 30–August 2, 2026. It's a decision made not out of expectation, but because we missed it, and because we chose it again. Whether you're feeling weary from "pushing through" or simply curious about a gentler way to stay committed, this episode offers a new lens and a powerful invitation to rechoose, realign, and return to yourself.     Pearls of Wisdom: Sustainability isn't about willpower, it's about choosing with presence and letting alignment lead. Feelings of resistance or resentment are gentle cues to pause, reevaluate, and possibly release. Healing happens when we release the pressure to perform and give ourselves permission to rest and evolve. Fun, ease, and joy aren't frivolous, they are wise signals of what's truly aligned. Spaciousness, non-judgment, and collaboration support the longevity of meaningful work.     Reflection Questions: Where in your life are you being consistent by force, rather than by choice? What would it feel like to choose instead of push? Which commitments feel alive and which might be asking for a pause, a shift, or a graduation? Where could more lightness or joy gently be welcomed in?   Why Connect in Nature is a Different Kind of Retreat Connect in Nature is unlike any other retreat I offer. It is the only opportunity to work in person with both Dr. Ni-Cheng Liang and Dr. Jessie Mahoney. It's intentionally designed for healers, physicians, and wellness professionals who crave a reset rooted in nature, mindfulness, and joy. Held at the Green Gulch Zen Center just north of San Francisco, you'll be surrounded by eucalyptus groves, redwoods, gardens, and the quiet beauty of the California coast. Here's what makes it special: Nature as co-teacher: Forest bathing, beach meditation, and fog hikes support nervous system healing. Freedom to choose: All practices are optional and guided with non-judgment—you participate in what serves you. Spaciousness: Core retreat hours are 10:30–3:30, with optional morning offerings and space for rest, reflection, or local exploration. Inclusive and welcoming: Open to all genders and professions—bring a partner, a colleague, a friend, or come solo. Choose your own lodging at local inns, allowing for private rest and personal integration. This retreat isn't about pushing yourself. It's about letting nature and mindfulness gently bring you home. Join us July 30–August 2, 2026 at Green Gulch Zen Center.   And yes—it's over my birthday weekend, and there's no better way to celebrate than in community, in nature, and in joy. Retreat details + registration: www.jessiemahoneymd.com/retreats     Our Birthday Wish is to Help More Healers Find This Work As part of celebrating five years of the Healing Medicine podcast, we'd love to ask for your help in spreading this healing ripple even further: If this podcast has supported you...

DateDecember 21, 2025SynopsisIn this sermon, we dismantle the myth that joy is a prize to be earned or a mindset to be curated. Digging into the Christmas story—from the animals who bear witness to the cosmic claim of John's sarx—we discover that God has already pitched a tent in the fragile, biological stuff of creation. Joy isn't a reward for overcoming; it's an ever-present sign of God's presence, which holds us through everything and is simply waiting for our attention.ReferencesScripture: John 1:1–5, 14O Magnum MysteriumAbout The Local ChurchFor more information about The Local Church, visit our website.

Sim, queridos e queridas ouvintes e assistintes: não poderíamos encerrar o ano sem voltar a falar dela… a IA. No episódio de hoje, Carlos Merigo, Cris Dias, Ana Freitas e Alexandre Maron tentam responder duas perguntas que estão atormentando CEOs, devs, criativos, investidores, ou qualquer interessado em tecnologia (e talvez os interessados no pós-apocalipse também): Quem tá ganhando a guerra da inteligência artificial – Google Gemini, Claude, ChatGPT, ou algum outro player que nem nasceu ainda? E isso tudo é uma revolução tipo internet… ou uma bolha linda e brilhante prestes a estourar na nossa cara? Porque ao mesmo tempo em que a IA tá escrevendo seu e-mail, organizando suas fotos, resumindo reunião e sugerindo resposta passivo-agressiva no WhatsApp… tem gente falando que a conta dessa brincadeira pode vir na casa dos trilhões de dólares. 14:00 - Pauta 01:41:63 - QEAB -- APOIO CERTO – HISTÓRIAS REAIS DE QUEM FAZ ACONTECER Uma série do Itaú Empresas em parceria com o Braincast e o g1.

The latest episode of Physics World Stories takes you inside CUWiP+, the Conference for Undergraduate Women and Non-Binary Physicists, and the role the annual event plays in shaping early experiences of studying physics. The episode features June McCombie from the University of Nottingham, who discusses what happens at CUWiP+ events and why they are so important for improving the retention of women and non-binary students in STEM. She reflects on how the conferences create space for students to explore career paths, build confidence and see themselves as part of the physics community. Reflections and tips from CUWiP+ 2025 University of Birmingham students Tanshpreet Kaur and Harriett McCormick share their experiences of attending the 2025 CUWiP+ event at the University of Warwick and explain why they are excited for the next event, set for Birmingham, 19–22 March 2026. They describe standout moments from 2025, including being starstruck at meeting Dame Jocelyn Bell Burnell, who discovered radio pulsars in 1967. The episode provides practical advice to get the most out of the event. Organizers design the programme to cater for all personalities – whether you thrive in lively, social situations, or prefer time to step back and reflect. Either way, CUWiP+ offers opportunities to be inspired and to make meaningful connections. Hosted by Andrew Glester, the episode highlights how shared experiences and supportive networks can balance the often-solitary nature of studying physics, especially when you feel excluded from the majority group.

Durante este programa, os professores Renato e Cristiane Cardoso desmistificaram mais um mito muito comum: amor à primeira vista. Na ocasião, eles abordaram amplamente o assunto com os alunos. Inclusive, compartilharam um estudo da Universidade de Chicago que comprova que isso, de fato, não existe, mas sim a atração no primeiro momento. Eles também falaram sobre os riscos de acreditar em amor à primeira vista. Ademais, o casal contou como foi o primeiro encontro deles.Não o respeitaEm seguida, o aluno Paulo disse que a namorada não o respeita, mesmo dando tudo a ela, principalmente, atenção e carinho. Contudo, ela só o maltrata e o xinga. Quando eles saem, ela gosta de usar roupas curtas e, com isso, chama a atenção dos outros homens. Ele não sabe o que fazer e pediu ajuda dos professores.Bem-vindos à Escola do Amor Responde, confrontando os mitos e a desinformação nos relacionamentos.

In this episode, hosts Chris and Mecca interview Dr. Cindi SturtzSreetharan about language decoding, why inclusive language matters for better science, the importance of clearly defining the terms we use, and how ethnographic methods help contextualize research. Dr. SturtzSreetharan is a President's Professor at the School of Human Evolution & Social Change at Arizona State University. She has a bachelor's degree in international relations from Willamette University, a master's in Asian studies from the University of Oregon, and a doctorate in Anthropology from the University of California at Davis. Her research interests center on a language-in-interaction approach to the construction of identities, including masculinity. Much of her earlier work focused on how Japanese men use language as a resource for creating, maintaining, or refuting a masculine identity. She has also worked on language use in reality TV shows, serial dramas, and film, focusing specifically on language and fatherhood. For the past decade, Dr. SturtzSreetharan has turned her attention to the intersection of language, the body, and medicine. Her current work is an investigation of metabolic syndrome in Japan, a so-called lifestyle condition that affects more men than women. She is particularly interested in the way that everyday, mundane language interactions contribute to the production of felt shame and stigma around body size, shape, and care. ------------------------------ Find the papers discussed in this episode: SturtzSreetharan, C.L & Shibamoto-Smith, J.

DateDecember 14, 2025SynopsisIn this sermon, we venture into the dark fields alongside the shepherds, discovering that the first announcement of the Incarnation was entrusted to those on the margins. We explore how the angelic proclamation disrupts our fear, revealing a joy that is not a scarce commodity for the pious, but a generous, cosmic invitation for all humanity. This is a story about a God who breaks through the silence to offer a love that is unapologetically inclusive and meant to be shared.Scripture: Luke 2:8–18About The Local ChurchFor more information about The Local Church, visit our website.
