In yesterday's Hallmarked Man Notes: The Christmas Charm Bracelet Decoded, Tod Jameson and the Ectopic Pregnancy, and Venetian Blinds, Ed Shardlow explained three sub-texts within Strike 8 that, though invisible on first and second reading, pop up during structural analysis and in light of other Rowling-Galbraith notes.* The Christmas gift charm bracelet that Strike gives to Robin, for example, appears to be a ring and a key to Hallmarked Man, a meaning that occurred to Ed in light of Rowling's own bracelet gift to fandom last year as a key to Sleep Tight, Evangeline;* John Granger's posts about Strike 8's cryptonyms similarly encouraged Ed to think about the meaning of ‘Todd Jameson' and how the “egg-shaped” man had several names and seemed to be stuck on the Tube; and* Ed's efforts to finish his charting of each Part of Hallmarked Man brought up the theme of Robin's blindness and mental struggles in Part Three's chapter correspondences.In conversation with Nick and John explore these ideas as well as the potential importance of A. H. Murdoch, a historical figure that Rowling-Galbraith invented whole-cloth, the meaning of his name (‘Alexander Hughson'), and the passages from his book, Secrets of the Craft, which of course are also Rowling-written.Below are relevant links to the subjects the trio discuss and copies of the ten questions John and Nick asked Ed.

H. Murdoch's Secrets of the Craft Excerpt in Hallmarked Man:[Strike skim read the entry under Degree Thirty Two.]The Sublime Prince of the Royal Secret becomes with the degree's endowment none other than a Christian Knight, the spiritual and legitimate successor of the Knights Templar…When she elevates and illuminates, a pure and chaste woman is as silver, or the moon. The […] Freemason is sure never to mistake base lead for the nobler metal, else he may find himself forever entombed in the dungeons of lust and lasciviousness. (ch 53, pp 400-401)The parenthetic ellipsis is in text, presumably there because “Murdoch's book hadn't been properly formatted, but scanned into digital form, so that the occasional word was illegible.” The Ten Questions1. We have a special guest today, Ed Shardlow, the author of a commissioned post that went up this week, one we begged him to write up. It's a weird post erven for a site that embraces the exotic, weird in the sense that it's actually three posts rolled into one. What's up with that, Ed?2. So the three topics are:* The charms on the Christmas gift bracelet Strike gives to Robin;* The meaning of Todd Jameson's name; and* Robin's sight and memory issues, ‘Venetian Blinds'Is there a thread running through these ideas?3. Tell us your charm bracelet idea and the meaning you think each charm has --4. And it's a ring, right? What a hoot. --5. I loved the charm bracelet piece, not only because you read it as a ring and showed that the charms together and separately act as something of a cipher for the book, but because you linked it with Rowling's Strike 9 charm bracelet. Do you think per Shanker's advice that Rowling-Galbraith is giving us jewelry as a gift, one that acts as a key to the work in Hallmarked and before Evangeline, because she wants to make up with us for the hardship readers are having with the book?6. True confession, though I was laughing out loud and delighted with your breaking the Todd Jameson cryptonym, I was also pretty disappointed; that name was number 1 on my not-yet-written third cryptonym post. What consoles me is that I doubt I would have picked up on what you saw, which is mind-blowing. Tell us how you figured it out as well as what you found --7. Now this is a new variant of Rowling-Galbraith inserting a text within the text. This ectopic sub-story isn't a written text, a fairy tale, an epigraph, a song playing in the background, an illustration based on a mad detective's Tarot card throws, or the story the bad guy is selling that we have to unwind and re-write; we've seen those books-inside-the-book before. This is Rowling concealing a narrative inside the narrative with really only the name to act as the cipher for the coded message. Hence her talking up the importance of names in this book (e.g. Jolanda -- violets)?8. You make a fascinating connection with Harry Potter, the Boy Who Lived, and Todd Jameson, the Son Who Killed His Mother (?). Do you think she finally wrote in a Chosen One echo in the Strike series via Jameson?9. I want to leave the board here because I know you have to run -- thank you for joining us on such short notice! -- and talk about something you've been sharing on the Moderator's Back Channels, namely, A. H. Murdock. His Secrets of the Craft is another text within a text, right? Have you thought about his name or why Rowling gave his book that title?10. When will you be done with The Ickabog project?

CULTIVATING SAINTS, SAGES, AND STATESMEN THROUGH THE GREAT TRADITION OF CHRISTENDOMIn our first episode since Easter Sunday, and in light of the extraordinary number of new Catholic converts this year, we cover the amazing (and very familiar sounding!) conversion account of the first early American Puritan Pastor to the Catholic Faith. His name was John Thayer. He was known to Benjamin Franklin, and even challenged John Adams on Luther and Calvin. He converted in 1783, the same year the United States won its independence from Great Britain, and later became a priest dedicated to evangelizing his beloved America.Christ is King! Christ is Risen!

Grow G1 In Joshua 9:14, the Israelites “sampled their provisions but did not inquire of the LORD.” Why do you think they skipped seeking God at this moment, especially after everything they had just experienced with Him? G2 The Gibeonites' deception seemed convincing. What are some modern situations where circumstances or appearances might lead us to make decisions without seeking God? G3 The Israelites had just heard the blessings and curses from Deuteronomy 28:1–2 at Mount Ebal and Mount Gerizim. What does their failure to inquire of God reveal about the gap between knowing God's word and actually living it? G4 The leaders kept their oath to the Gibeonites even after discovering the deception (Joshua 9:18–20; Numbers 30:2). What does this teach us about integrity and keeping our word? G5 The sermon asked several reflective questions: Do you believe God loves you, knows what is best for you, and cares about your decisions? Which of these is hardest for you to believe in practice, and why? G6 The sermon described taking time to quiet your heart, ask God a question, and listen in prayer. What practices help you seek God's guidance when facing decisions? Show S1 Think about a decision or situation in your life right now. What would it look like this week to intentionally “inquire of the LORD” (Joshua 9:14) before moving forward? A PRACTICE OF LISTENING PRAYER (INQUIRING OF THE LORD) Step 1: Enter his gates with Thanksgiving Ask: Holy Spirit, show me something I can be grateful to you for in my life. Listen. Write down what you sense the Spirit saying: _______________________________________________________ Step 2: Write down a specific guidance question for God. Example 1: What should I do about situation X? Example 2: Should I choose A or B? Example 3: What do you think of when you think of me? Listen. Write down what you sense he is saying. You can turn over and practice this on the other side of the sheet. You sheet might look like this: Me: God what should I do about X? God: _____________ Me: _____________ God: _____________ When you feel the conversation is done close in a moment of quiet or spoken gratitude or by reading out loud Thomas Merton's prayer. Thomas Merton's Prayer “My Lord God, I have no idea where I am going. I do not see the road ahead of me. I cannot know for certain where it will end. Nor do I really know myself, and the fact that I think that I am following your will does not mean that I am actually doing so. But I believe that the desire to please you does in fact please you. And I hope I have that desire in all that I am doing. I hope that I will never do anything apart from that desire. And I know that if I do this you will lead me by the right road, though I may know nothing about it. Therefore will I trust you always, though I may seem to be lost and in the shadow of death. I will not fear, for you are ever with me, and you will never leave me to face my perils alone.” We will be practicing this on Tues 9:30-11am - Cornerstone. Wed 7-8:30pm – Manse

Brian wonders about how amphibians mate again and the guys are concerned. Richard has had some guitar revelations and we pay our respects to the late KISS guitarist Ace Frehley.

John Batchelor is the host of the Friends of History Debating Society. He broadcasts from New England, where he is currently entering autumn, contrasting with Jeremy Zakis's springtime in New South Wales. He refers to Jeremy Zakisas his "good mate." Batchelor often guides the conversation with Jeremy Zakis, asking about: The climate in Sydney, inquiring about expected rain, El Niño, and the predictability of the weather. He describes the unpredictable climate as "the beginning of a science fiction thriller." Batchelor notes that discussing springtime with Jeremy is "far more interesting" than preparing his own garden for winter's colder days. He also discusses python sightings, specifically mentioning a photograph of two pythons battling on a library roof on the Sunshine Coast, questioning if such an event is ordinary for an urban area. He emphasizes that he is in New England, in the "northern temperate zone," while Jeremy Zakis is in the "southern temperate zone."
Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Support our mission to teach every verse of the Bible on video over the next 23 years. Read more about it here: PROJECT23 Our text today is Judges 1:1-2: "After the death of Joshua, the people of Israel inquired of the Lord, 'Who shall go up first for us against the Canaanites, to fight against them?' The Lord said, 'Judah shall go up; behold, I have given the land into his hand.'" — Judges 1:1-2 The book opens in a moment of loss. Joshua is gone. The strong leader. The voice of God's direction. The man who filled Moses' sandals and led battles with divine clarity. Now? Silence. No commander. No plan. Just questions. But the people do something right—they ask God. And he answers. "Judah shall go up; behold, I have given the land into his hand." Notice that God doesn't give them a detailed strategy. He just tells them who goes first. And that was enough. Judah. The tribe whose name means praise. The tribe from which kings would come. And eventually—Jesus. Notice God's tense in the statement: "I have given." Not will give. He speaks with certainty. It's the assumptive sale! That's the language of divine sovereignty. Faith isn't based on circumstance—it's based on God's character. But here's the rub: Inquiring is easy. Hearing is easy. Obeying is hard. You've probably asked God for direction lately. Maybe about your job, your marriage, your next move. You've prayed, and maybe you've even sensed what God's telling you. But have you moved? God isn't asking for your full understanding. He's asking for your next step. Obedience doesn't require a detailed map—just faith in the One giving the directions. Take one small step forward today, even if it's just that—small. With God, the land and the territory have already been given. ASK THIS: Where do I feel unsure about my next step? Have I truly asked God, or just tried to figure it out on my own? What's something God has already spoken that I'm hesitating to obey? What would faith look like in motion today? DO THIS: Take one obedient step today in the direction God has already spoken. PRAY THIS: Father, thank you for leading even when I feel uncertain. Help me trust your voice and act on what you've already said. Amen PLAY THIS: "Same God."

Inquiring minds want to know: where is Napolean's penis these days? We will give you a hint: it's not with the rest of his body, but it's a cautionary tale for today's despots that we think should be more widely known. To be clear, the whereabouts of Napolean's penis is not discussed in Anne Macdonald's No Idle Hands: The Social History of American Knitting, but many other fascinating historical tidbits are. We are now up to the Civil War, and guess what both sides, Union and Confederate, need the most? Yup, you guessed it: SOCKS. "'Send socks!' pleaded Civil War soldiers, and when their heartrending stories of bleeding, frostbitten and blistered feet reached 'the womenfolk,' there followed an unprecedented fever of sock-knitting 'for the boys'" (p. 97). The dearth of socks even inspired Albert M. Hubbard to compose "The Knitting Song: Dedicated to the Patriotic Ladies of the North," "a zesty tribute that quickly became a great favorite with choral groups at fairs and parlor sing-alongs and accounted for even further acceleration of knitting" (p. 102). While the North had more resources and infrastructure thanks to the unfortunately named "United States Sanitary Commission," the women of South showed their devotion and ingenuity in other ways. Scarlet O'Hara's famous upcycling of the drawing room curtains into a dress had its roots in real events, and later made for great comedy on the Carol Burnett Show. And how can we not admire Lucy Nickolson Lindsay of Missouri for delivering vials of quinine and morphine hidden in the coiled locks of her hair and 22 pairs of socks tucked in the hems of her skirts to the frontline? Women on both sides sent notes to the troops in the socks and garments they made to inspire hope for better days:Brave Sentry, on your lonely beatMay these blue stockings warm your feetAnd when from wars and camps you partMay some fair knitter warm your heart."Quoted in Anne L. Macdonald, No Idle Hands: The Social History of American Knitting, p. 105.These are the tales from American history that warm our hearts! And if you want something tasty to warm your palate, may we suggest our recipe for roasted balsamic onions? A treat in salads or sandwiches--tune in and try it!

Making decisions about diversifying your business and launching and running a cooking camp for kids with Jess Smith from Inquiring Chef. ----- Welcome to episode 514 of The Food Blogger Pro Podcast! For part two of our Diversifying Income Series, Bjork interviews Jess Smith from Inquiring Chef. Diversifying Income Series: Cooking Classes Jess Smith launched her blog, Inquiring Chefs, in 2010 and has slowly but steadily transformed it into a thriving multi-six-figure business. In recent years, she's expanded her income streams by publishing her debut cookbook, Start with a Vegetable, and launching Inquiring Chef Academy, which offers popular in-person cooking summer camps for kids in Kansas City. In this episode, Bjork and Jess dive into the origins of Inquiring Chef Academy, exploring why and how Jess decided to add an in-person experience to her brand. Jess's summer camps are a massive hit (with the 2025 sessions selling out in just a few hours), and they've reignited her passion for food blogging. Even if in-person cooking classes aren't your thing, this episode will provide fresh insights on diversifying your income and your creative outlets — you won't want to miss it! Three episode takeaways: How to make decisions about diversifying your business — Jess's current income distribution looks like this: 71% from ad revenue, 13% from cooking camps, 10% from her cookbook, and 6% from brand partnerships. However, when she first considered launching her cooking camps, it wasn't driven by money but by creativity. In this discussion, Bjork and Jess talk about the importance of finding balance in your business to prevent burnout and ensure long-term success, and how to make decisions that reflect those values. The logistics of running your own cooking classes — Jess dives into the tools she uses to manage her cooking camps, including the software for registration, how she developed the curriculum, how she promotes the camps, how she built a team to support the operations, and why she isn't interested in scaling her camps (yet). This episode has all the details you need if you're considering launching something similar! How to launch cooking classes — Jess announced her summer camps in January 2024 and has sold out two consecutive summers of camps. She reveals how she pushed past her hesitations and shares the behind-the-scenes process of getting her cooking camps off the ground (spoiler: it was the toughest business challenge she's faced yet)!

Jim and Rich start of this episode with some listener feed back. Seems The guys missed the fact that American Rossi Moor has signed to ride in the Junior GP Moto2 class this year (link below). Next Jim and Rich tackle the news starting off with Pirelli becoming the sole tire supplier for the entire MotoGP paddock in 2027. They discuss the Ogura disqualification and chat about the X rant that people are becoming bored with the sprint races. Lastly they cover all the action from Argentina. Piqueras opened his winning bank account with a somewhat controversial win in Moto3. What does the rule really say about touching the green paint on the last lap? Inquiring minds want to know. British pride was on full display in Moto2 as Jake Dixon took a commanding win and moved into second in the championship chase. Lastly MotoGp and what can you say about Marc's incredible start to the season. The result may have been the same as last race when Marc battled his brother for the win, but how we got there this time is completely different. The guys also wonder when Marc will actually loose a race.

Consciousness is made of attention and intention. Attention helps you see more clearly, like when you shine a flashlight in a dark room. That flashlight is also healing. Wherever you focus with acceptance, you heal, including in yourself and others. Intention transforms the energy of attention into information. Inquiring into your own attention and intention enables you to get to know who you are. You are not your thoughts. You are not what you do for work. Our personalities are a fiction. We get attached to this story, but we can get behind our egos to understand our real needs and wants. Our life becomes more joyful and fulfilling when we remember who we really are. In addition, this clarity helps us become more flexible, effective and impactful as leaders. Meditation is self-focused attention with empathy.

The LORD strengthens Isaiah for the task at hand. The prophet must not be filled with the false fear of the people, but Isaiah should instead fear the LORD and honor Him as the Holy One. He will be a sanctuary for Isaiah even as He is a rock of stumbling for those who do not believe. Strengthened by the LORD's Word, Isaiah commands that His teaching be sealed up as the faithful wait for the LORD to act. Inquiring of the dead will bring no light, but only distress and darkness. Only in the LORD will the light of the promised Savior be seen. Rev. Sean Kilgo, pastor at Redeemer Lutheran Church in Lawrence, KS, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Isaiah 8:11-22. "The Fifth Evangelist” is a series on Sharper Iron that goes through Isaiah 1-39. The prophet proclaims to the people of his day and throughout history that the Holy One of Israel alone is exalted. Those who put their trust in the strength of man will be brought low, but those who trust in the LORD will see that He is their Immanuel. Jesus is God with us who reigns over the kingdom of God forever and ever! Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God's Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen. Submit comments or questions to: listener@kfuo.org
