Podcasts about intervening

Diese Podcastfolge behandelt einen Aspekt der Verfahrenspraxis des Internationalen Gerichtshofs, der in jüngerer Zeit verstärkt diskutiert wird: die Interventionen von Drittstaaten. Grundsätzlich stehen Staaten zwei Wege der Intervention offen: entweder auf Grundlage von Artikel 62 oder von Artikel 63 des Statuts des IGH. Während Art. 62 des IGH-Statuts Staaten den Beitritt zu einem Verfahren aufgrund eines möglichen „rechtlichen Interesses“ ermöglicht, „das durch die Entscheidung der Sache berührt werden könnte“, regelt Art. 63 des IGH-Statuts die Voraussetzungen einer Intervention bei der Auslegung von Verträgen. Wir analysieren die prozessualen Anforderungen, die an Interventionsgesuche gestellt werden und anhand welcher Kriterien deren Zulässigkeit bestimmt wird. Anschließend gehen wir der Frage nach, welche konkreten Möglichkeiten sich Staaten eröffnen, sofern ihre Intervention als zulässig erachtet wird. Interventionen von Drittstaaten führen in der Praxis durchaus zu Kontroversen, wie sowohl abgeschlossene als auch laufende Verfahren zeigen. Grundsätzlich stellt sich die Frage, ob die Intervention als verfahrensrechtliches Instrument einen „Mehrwert“ bietet oder vielmehr einen „ungerechtfertigten Verfahrenseingriff“ darstellt, der die bilaterale Streitbeilegung zwischen den Hauptparteien behindert. Vor dem Hintergrund der zuletzt beobachteten „Welle von Interventionen“ stellt sich zudem die Frage, ob diese Entwicklung eventuell zu einer weiteren Politisierung der Verfahren beiträgt.Um sich diesen Diskussionen vertieft zu widmen, hat der Völkerrechtspodcast Jane Hofbauer eingeladen, die den Hörer*innen das Instrument der Intervention näherbringt. Ergänzend beleuchtet Isabel Lischewski im Grundlagenteil die historische Entwicklung der Intervention. Wir sind gespannt auf eure Rückmeldungen!

In this episode, Chuck Todd reacts to the Seahawks winning the Super Bowl, then examines the political shockwaves rippling through Washington after Donald Trump’s controversial and widely condemned post about the Obamas, placing it within the broader context of Trump’s long history of racial controversies and growing unease inside his own coalition. As criticism emerges from Republican lawmakers, conservative legal voices, and even Olympic athletes, Todd explores signs that Trump’s influence may be weakening—fueled by internal party fractures, controversial foreign policy moves, and a leadership circle increasingly insulating him from reality. With a surge of congressional retirements, warning signs from special elections, and historical trends favoring the opposition party, the conversation turns to whether Republicans are heading toward a major electoral setback—and whether worsening controversies, including ongoing fallout from Epstein-related revelations, could further reshape the political landscape before November. Then, former White House Chief of Staff & Mayor of Chicago, Rahm Emanuel joins the Chuck ToddCast for a wide-ranging conversation on the forces shaping America’s political and economic future. He discusses why the 2028 election will be about what’s ahead—not what’s behind—and argues that understanding AI, energy, and the changing nature of work is now essential for anyone seeking leadership. Emanuel makes the case that education and vocational training remain the clearest pathway to the middle class, warns about declining reading proficiency, and examines what schools must do to prepare students for a rapidly evolving world. He also explores how both parties lost their way on education, why fundamentals matter, and what voters are really demanding from the system. The discussion then turns sharply to politics, power, and the health of American institutions. Emanuel weighs in on Trump-era controversies, Congress’s weakened role, and concerns about election integrity and the post-election environment. He outlines how Democrats can rebuild a winning coalition by welcoming independents and former Republicans, focusing on economic fairness, and preparing for a potential 2026 wave election. The episode closes with a global lens—covering U.S.–Israel dynamics, political polarization, wealth inequality, and whether national service could help reunite a fractured country—framing a central question: if the midterms fail to reset the trajectory, what comes next for American democracy? Finally, Chuck comments on the fallout from the mass layoffs at the Washington Post, hops in the ToddCast Time Machine to revisit the history of the Iranian revolution and answers listeners’ questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment.

There's a kind of care that looks loving on the surface,  yet somehow leaves both the receiver and giver more tense than before.   This episode delves into this often unexplored territory.  It's called ‘the discipline of not intervening'.  Of course I'm not talking about neglectfulness, but I am talking about healthy restraint.  And what becomes possible when silence and space are allowed to make room for the natural order of things to emerge.  If you've ever noticed yourself holding everything together,  or sensed the quiet cost of always stepping in,  this episode may be for you. ********************************************Join the waitlist for BECOMING

This is a safeguarding episode, not a comfort episode. Children are not collateral damage for adult frustration. They are not background noise. They are not “tiny adults” who should just get over it. And they are not content. This episode pulls apart the most dangerous lie we repeat: “Kids are resilient.” There's a difference between building strength and forcing a child to survive adult-made chaos, yelling, hitting, humiliation, neglect, manipulation, and constant instability. It also calls out the wider system: under-resourced schools, stripped youth services, safeguarding treated like paperwork, and a culture that frames children as problems to manage instead of humans to protect.If you're raising kids, employing parents, building communities, or shaping policy, this is the line: protect children in advance, not after damage is done.8 things to consider:Children are not collateral damage for co-parent conflictKids are not background noise to adult lives“Resilience” vs forced survival: stop confusing the twoDiscipline and consistency matter more than moneyWhy yelling/hitting is adult weakness dressed as parentingSystem failure: safeguarding isn't paperwork, it's vigilanceChildren as content: the moral line is collapsingThe downstream cost: harmed kids become what other kids must navigate Hosted on Acast.

🧭 REBEL Rundown 📝 Introduction Welcome to the Rebel Core Content Blog, where we delve into crucial knowledge for emergency medicine. Today, we share insightful tips from PEM specialist Dr. Elise Perelman, shedding light on respiratory challenges in infants, toddlers, and young children during the viral season. Understanding that most cases involve typical viruses, we aim to equip you with diagnostic pearls to identify more serious pathologies. Click here for Direct Download of the Podcast. 🔍 Recognizing Respiratory Patterns Pearl #1: Look at Your PatientBegin exams from the doorway. Observing patterns such as accessory muscle usage can reveal a patient’s respiratory effort. Specify whether the work of breathing occurs during inspiration, expiration, or both. Inspiratory work indicates difficulty getting air in, while expiratory work suggests trouble pushing air out. Silent tachypnea may point to other issues, like acidemia or pneumothorax. 🩺 Localizing Sounds for Accurate Diagnosis Pearl #2: Localize the SoundBreathing noises signal varied respiratory issues. Stridor, often heard on inspiration, results from obstructions above the thoracic inlet. Conversely, wheezing, generally linked to exhalation, indicates obstructions in the lower airways. Watch for signs like ‘silent chest’—a dangerous, severe obstruction, and distinguish grunting as a bodily mechanism to prevent alveolar collapse. Correctly identifying the sound assists in determining the appropriate intervention. 💉 Tailoring Treatment for Effective Results Once a sound is localized, treatments vary. We explore Soder from nasal congestion, typically needing supportive care and suctioning. Stridor from conditions like croup is eased with interventions to reduce airway swelling, such as steroids or inhaled epinephrine. Conversely, wheezing in infants is often due to bronchiolitis—not bronchospasms—and over-treatment is to be avoided. Supportive measures including suction, hydration, and oxygen are preferred unless improvement warrants bronchodilators. 🌬️ Intervening with Severe Asthma In severe cases of asthma or bronchiolitis, where standard at-home treatments fail, immediate adjunct therapies like intramuscular epinephrine become essential. Administering this quickly can alleviate obstruction when inhalants aren’t effective due to low air movement. 🦓 Navigating the Zebras of Respiratory Cases When recognizing Zebras—uncommon cases overshadowed by routine diagnoses—remain vigilant for histories or presentations that don’t conform. Conditions like pneumonia, bacterial tracheitis, and even myocarditis may mimic more common issues. 📌 Conclusion As attending physicians, our role extends beyond conventional treatment—it’s about discerning the atypical from the typical. Dr. Perelman urges continual reassessment, emphasizing reliance on observational skills as much as technological aid. Keeping keen on respiratory nuances ensures we catch those outlier cases, paving the way for adept medical care despite the overwhelming prevalence of viral infections.Stay tuned for more pearls and insights in our future posts, as Dr. Perelman shares further strategies for effective pediatric emergency care.

In this episode of the Guns Podcast U.S., host Brent Wheat and special guest Roy Huntington dive deep into the critical decision-making process of self-defense. Taking a cue from the classic Kenny Rogers song, they discuss knowing "when to hold 'em and when to fold 'em" regarding lethal force. The conversation challenges the "keyboard commando" mentality, emphasizing that carrying a firearm does not obligate you to be a hero in every situation. Drawing from decades of combined law enforcement experience, Brent and Roy explore the "Scared Bunny Defense" and why evading a threat is often the superior tactical choice over engaging. They analyze real-world scenarios—from domestic disputes in parking lots to potential active shooter situations—to illustrate the legal and physical risks of inserting yourself into third-party conflicts. The episode also covers Jeff Cooper's Color Codes of Awareness and the stark difference between shooting paper targets and handling the adrenaline of a real-life confrontation. KEY TAKEAWAYS - The "Scared Bunny Defense"—retreating or avoiding conflict entirely—is often the most tactical and legally sound option for concealed carriers. - Carrying a gun requires leaving your ego at home; engaging in a conflict just to save face can lead to prison or death. - Possessing a firearm does not equal having the training to use it effectively; without stress inoculation, shooters often revert to zero skills. - Utilize Jeff Cooper's Color Codes (White, Yellow, Orange, Red) to maintain situational awareness and avoid being caught unprepared. - Intervening in third-party situations (like domestic disputes or robberies) exposes you to massive liability and physical danger often outweighing the benefits. - Distraction techniques, such as throwing a fake money clip or verbally de-escalating, can be effective alternatives to drawing a weapon. -- Have a topic idea or a guest you'd like to see in a future episode?

This conversation delves into the complexities of homicide law, focusing on the definitions, mental states, and causation involved in criminal liability. It explores the historical context of malice aforethought, the nuances of causation, and the distinctions between murder and voluntary manslaughter, including mitigating factors like provocation and imperfect self-defense. The discussion emphasizes the importance of understanding these concepts for law students preparing for exams and practical applications in legal scenarios.In the intricate world of criminal law, understanding the nuances of homicide is crucial for law students and practitioners alike. This post explores the depths of homicide, from its basic definitions to the complex legal doctrines that govern its prosecution.The Foundation of Homicide: Homicide, at its core, is defined as the unlawful killing of a human being by another. However, the legal landscape is far from simple. The concept of "malice aforethought" serves as a cornerstone, historically required for a murder conviction. This term, while ancient, remains pivotal in categorizing the mental states that constitute murder.Degrees of Murder: Modern statutes have evolved to categorize murder into degrees, primarily based on the level of culpability. First-degree murder often involves premeditation, while second-degree murder may not. Understanding these distinctions is vital for legal analysis and application.Defenses and Mitigations: The law recognizes certain defenses that can mitigate a murder charge to manslaughter. These include "adequate provocation" and "imperfect self-defense." The former considers whether a reasonable person would have been provoked to lose self-control, while the latter acknowledges a genuine, albeit unreasonable, belief in the need for self-defense.Causation and Legal Responsibility: Causation in homicide cases is a complex interplay of factual and legal assessments. The "but-for" test establishes a basic link, while legal causation involves a moral evaluation of the defendant's actions. The law also considers intervening acts, such as medical negligence or victim responses, which can break the chain of causation.Conclusion: Navigating the legal intricacies of homicide requires a deep understanding of both subjective mental states and objective legal standards. As you prepare for exams or practice, remember that the law often balances scientific tracing of events with moral judgments about responsibility.Subscribe Now: Stay informed and deepen your legal knowledge by subscribing for more insights into criminal law and beyond.TakeawaysUnderstanding homicide requires grasping the definitions and historical context.Malice aforethought is a technical term that encompasses various mental states.Causation links a defendant's mental state to the outcome of their actions.Factual causation uses the but-for test to establish a connection.Legal causation assesses moral responsibility and foreseeability of outcomes.Voluntary manslaughter can result from adequate provocation or imperfect self-defense.The reasonable person standard is crucial in assessing provocation.The thin skull rule holds defendants liable for the full extent of harm caused.Intervening acts can break the chain of causation under certain conditions.The law balances objective standards with subjective human emotions.homicide, causation, malice aforethought, mens rea, actus reus, criminal law, law student, legal standards, voluntary manslaughter, provocation

This conversation delves into the complexities of causation in criminal law, exploring both factual and proximate causation, the impact of intervening causes, and advanced considerations such as the Model Penal Code. The discussion emphasizes the importance of foreseeability and fairness in assigning legal responsibility, while also providing practical strategies for analyzing causation in exam scenarios.TakeawaysCausation is fundamental to criminal law and essential for legal professionals.Factual causation is established through the 'but for' test, but is not sufficient alone for liability.Proximate causation considers whether the result is fair to impose liability, focusing on foreseeability.Intervening causes can break the chain of causation, especially if they are unforeseeable or independent.The eggshell skull rule holds defendants liable for the full extent of harm caused, even if the victim had pre-existing vulnerabilities.The Model Penal Code provides a structured approach to causation, linking it to the mental state required for crimes.Courts often adapt causation principles based on policy goals and the context of the case.Causation analysis requires a systematic approach, asking critical questions about factual and proximate causes.Understanding the interplay between causation and legal responsibility is key for aspiring legal professionals.Causation is a dynamic area of law that evolves with societal changes and technological advancements.causation, criminal law, factual causation, proximate causation, intervening causes, Model Penal Code, legal responsibility, foreseeability, criminal liability, legal analysis

Proximate cause is a fundamental and often complex concept in tort law that determines the extent to which a defendant can be held legally responsible for harm caused. While "cause-in-fact" (or "actual cause") establishes a factual link—"but for" the defendant's action, the injury would not have occurred—proximate cause acts as a legal and policy filter, limiting liability to consequences that are sufficiently related to the defendant's conduct (AllLaw; Reddit; Torts Lecture Twenty-One; Number Analytics). As the Latin proverb states, "Injure non remota causa sed proxima spectatur" – in law, only the immediate (proximate) cause should be considered, not the remote cause (IIPSeries).TakeawaysProximate cause is essential for understanding legal responsibility in torts.The distinction between actual and proximate cause is foundational in tort law.Foreseeability is a key component in determining proximate cause.Intervening causes can complicate liability but do not always absolve the original defendant.Superseding causes break the chain of liability, absolving the original defendant.The eggshell plaintiff rule holds defendants liable for the full extent of injuries, regardless of the plaintiff's pre-existing conditions.Judicial approaches to proximate cause vary, influencing case outcomes.Proximate cause applies across negligence, strict liability, and intentional torts.Policy considerations in proximate cause aim to balance fairness and limit liability.Understanding these principles is crucial for success in tort exams and legal practice.

Have you ever caught yourself picking at your skin, biting your nails, or pulling out a hair—then wondered why you can't seem to stop? You're not alone.   In this eye-opening episode of The OCD Whisperer Podcast, host Kristina Orlova sits down with Juliet Gustafson , a Michigan-based OCD therapist and professor, to explore the often-misunderstood world of Body-Focused Repetitive Behaviors (BFRBs)—like hair pulling (trichotillomania), skin picking, and nail biting. Far from mere "bad habits," these behaviors are complex disorders tied to emotions, sensory triggers, and even biology. Juliette breaks down the five key drivers behind BFRBs: sensory satisfaction, cognitive patterns, emotional states, motor habits, and environmental cues.   You'll learn how to distinguish between occasional grooming and compulsive behaviors, discover practical strategies for intervention (like replacement movements and awareness tools), and explore compassionate approaches to self-management. The episode also highlights vital resources, including the TLC Foundation, HabitAware's smart bracelets, and supportive communities like BFRB Changemakers.   Whether you're struggling with BFRBs or supporting someone who is, this conversation offers hope, clarity, and actionable steps to reclaim control—plus a reminder: healing is possible.   The 3 things you'll learn in  today's episode: Why BFRBs are more than habits—they're coping mechanisms. How to identify your personal triggers and replace harmful behaviors. Where to find support, tools, and expert-backed solutions. In This Episode [00:00] Introduction  [00:45] Juliette's academic and professional background [01:12] Defining body-focused repetitive behaviors (BFRBs) [02:22] Recognizing BFRBs and their impact [03:28] Identifying and understanding BFRBs in yourself [04:19] Managing and exploring BFRBs [05:29] Functions and triggers of BFRBs [09:04] Replacing and modifying BFRB habits [10:58] Awareness and control in BFRBs [12:54] Intervening and self-compassion [13:44] Tools and resources for BFRBs [15:20] Additional BFRB resources and communities [17:27] Encouragement and self-kindness [18:28] The Fidget Podcast and more resources [18:28] OCD representation in media [19:23] Closing and podcast outro Our Guest Juliet Gustafson  is a licensed OCD therapist based in Michigan, a part-time professor at Wayne State University's School of Social Work, and co-host of the Intrusive Plots podcast, which explores OCD representation in film and TV.

CLUBLAND STORIES May: Wrong Balls, Intervening Event for a Deliberate Stop, Moving a Loose Impediment in a Bunker, Dropping a Ball with No Intention for it to be in Play - THE GRQ PODCAST EP137Blakey is back, by himself this time, hopefully the audio is a lot better. There are some fun ClubLand stories this time, and of course the GRQOTW's and we serve up an easy question for Golf.Ai.GRQOTW 136 Blakey and Stuart are playing each other in a match at Wombat Hills. As Stuart is preparing to make his 2nd stroke in the general area on the 3rd hole, his ball moves backwards slightly. Before Stuart can remove his club, the ball comes to rest against the club, which stops it moving. Blakey is standing close by watching and both players agree that neither Stuart or any outside influence caused the ball to move. Just to be sure of what to do next, Blakey calls in a referee. What is the ruling?Answer: The movement of the ball was caused by natural forces, so no penalty. The stopping of the ball was accidental, so no penalty.The player is to remove their club, and if the ball moves in that case, there is no penalty and the ball needs to be replaced.GRQOTW 137GRQ137 - David hits his tee shot to the right of the fairway and it comes to rest inside a wombat hole that is on the side of a cliff face. The ball is not visible from the ground, but it was known to have gone into the hole, and the hole is very visible from the ground and it is easy to see that it is a wombat hole. David can't walk up the cliff face to get to the ball nor the hole, so he says to Andrew that he will take free relief, and use the nearest spot to the hole that he can reach as his reference point and drop a ball within a club-length of that spot. Andrew is not sure about that, and doesn't even think David could actually play a shot at the ball, as he can't climb the cliff face. Andrew calls in a referee, and that is you, what is your ruling?GOLFRULES QUESTIONS MERCHANDISEGet yourself a Roo&Coo polo: https://golfrulesquestions.myspreadshop.com/DO YOU HAVE A RULES OF GOLF QUESTION:Email - golfrules.questions@gmail.comWANT A QUICK GOLF RULES REFERENCEHead to Instagram: @GOLF.AI_OR JOIN THE FACEBOOK COMMUNITYLISTEN TO THE GRQ PODCAST ON APPLE OR SPOTIFYClick here: https://anchor.fm/golfrules-questionsSUBSCRIBE to GOLFRULES QUESTIONS https://bit.ly/2I8KrVH for all your golf rules#golfrules #GOLF.AI #blakey

Ever feel like your kids are growing up in totally different households—even though they share the same last name and dinner table? Your oldest follows all the rules, your middle child avoids conflict like it's their full-time job, and your youngest? Total chaos with a side of charm. In this episode, Dr. Cam sits down with Dr. Kelly Jameson, a therapist, speaker, and expert on birth order psychology and sibling dynamics, to decode what's really going on behind your kids' clashing personalities—and what to do when fairness feels impossible. If you've ever second-guessed how you parent each child (spoiler: you're not imagining it), this episode is packed with eye-opening truths and practical solutions.   WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE How birth order shapes your teen's personality and behavior Why sibling rivalry is normal—and how to handle it without picking sides What “fair” parenting really looks like (and why it's not the same for every child) How to parent your firstborn, middle, and youngest without losing your mind 5 KEY TAKEAWAYS FOR PARENTS OF TEENS Birth order isn't just theory—it deeply influences how each child behaves, connects, and competes Sibling rivalry often stems from a fight for limited parental attention—not bad behavior Fairness in parenting means meeting each child where they are developmentally, not treating them identically Older siblings shouldn't be forced to parent younger ones—it breeds resentment, not responsibility Creating rituals, one-on-one time, and shared experiences helps reduce tension and build sibling bonds

They discuss optimal aging in place, the role of occupational therapy in helping older adults live independently, and the innovative projects and technologies being developed to support this mission. Pam shares insights on the significance of home environments, the balance between safety and independence, and the need for early planning in aging. About PamPamela Toto, PhD, OTR/L, BCG, FAOTA. FGSA is an occupational therapist, a Professor at the University of Pittsburgh and the Director of the Healthy Home Laboratory – a community laboratory that brings the best science into home settings to maximize independence, health, and safety. Board Certified in Gerontology and a Fellow of the American Occupational Therapy Association and the Gerontological Society of America, Dr. Toto's interests focus on implementing effective strategies in everyday settings to promote aging in place. She is currently the Primary Investigator for a Technical Studies grant funded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Studies determining how best to integrate smart technologies into existing community-based home modification programs. Key TakeawaysThe Healthy Home Lab focuses on interprofessional collaboration to support aging adults. Professionals include nurses, social workers, engineers, occupational and physical therapists, physicians, and physician assistants.Aging in place is about more than just living in a house; it's about participating in meaningful activities and being part of a community.Home retrofitting is best achieved through small, manageable changes rather than major renovations. Intervening early in the aging process can prevent larger issues and is often more cost-effective.Lighting improvements are one of the simplest and most effective changes for aging in place.Risk management is essential; older adults should have the right to make choices about their living environment.Occupational therapists are trained to help people across the lifespan with activities of daily living and help people maximize their bodies and minds.

Clare Gardaí are reportedly growing increasingly frustrated due to people recording videos of criminal incidents instead of intervening in or reporting them. Ennis Superintendent John Ryan and Shannon Inspector Morgan O'Donoghue held a private briefing with the county town's elected representatives this week where a number of topics relating to local criminality were discussed. The meeting heard that between 2023 and 2024, incidents of shop theft in Ennis dropped by 85, while minor assault fell by 20 and anti-social behaviour warnings saw a decline of six. Mayor of Ennis Fianna Fáil Councillor Clare Colleran-Molloy says the Superintendent's feelings about social media being certain individuals' first port of call were palpable.

Tune in for a deep dive into human potential and the future of healing. About Dr. Anoop: Dr. Kumar grew up in a family steeped in the philosophy of Advaita (non-duality). He enjoyed exploring the intersections of consciousness, academics, and practical life. After a near-death-like experience in medical school, he began to integrate a deeper understanding of consciousness with existing medical knowledge, elucidating the science of consciousness as a common knowledge base for all healing systems.  Dr. Kumar is Board-Certified in Emergency Medicine and holds a Master's degree in Management with a focus in Health Leadership. He is the author of numerous articles on mind-body perspectives as well as of two books, Michelangelo's Medicine and Is This a Dream?

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit chadcrouch.substack.comNothing like a trip to the ocean to start a new year! I feel so fortunate to live just over an hour away from one of the most beautiful coastlines on this planet.This recording was made at Yoakam Point, near Coos Bay Oregon, about 4 hours down the coast. It's a uniquely beautiful sounding surf here, I have to say.And you might think to yourself, all beaches sound nice, Chad. And well, it would be hard-hearted of me to try to argue with you on that point. They all do sound nice, but some just sound more nice. The tuning here must have something to do with the rocks that reach into the ocean lake a giant hand, as if playing the surf like so many harp strings. The scarp ridges reflect the sound waves of the tumbling surf like a giant instrument, but not in a way that sounds like mush. The contours are clean and the details are sharp. If you listen closely you'll hear the distant moan of a fog horn on the low end (though I did soften it considerably with a low scoop EQ) and the peals of Pigeon Guillemot on the high end of this soundscape. Now if you're like me, you might wonder, why is it called “Yoakam Point”? And, if you're like me, not finding an answer at the ready makes this one of life's little mysteries that needs to be solved. I expected it to be named for some ship captain or crew mate. If not that, then certainly a white man, probably a pioneer or politician, or both. So, wading through numerous Google results for modern country singer Dwight Yoakam, I finally chanced upon a couple fascinating stories tracing the Yoakam surname in Coos County. And, to my surprise these stories enobled no man, but spoke to the perseverance of two generations of Yoakam women. How refreshing!Tragedy of the Burning TreeIn 1855 newly arrived settlers Eliza and John Yoakam lost five daughters to a tree aflame falling on their home, as detailed in this 1906 obituary:In 1855 they moved to a homestead about six miles from Empire City on [what] is now known as the Cammon wagon road.It was here that the awful tragedy of Mrs. Yoakam's life occurred—one that would only be possible in pioneer days, when a large, burning tree fell with terrific force upon their little cabin, shattering it and instantly killing five of their children, one a babe in its mother's arms. The accident happened in the evening, when the children were nearly all asleep, and when later the anguished parents searched amid the ruins of their little ones, they found four of them dead where they had slept. Two little boys, Jasper and George, aged 7 and 5 years, still missing, were found in their little trundle bed alive and fast asleep. The branches of the tree had fallen in such a manner as to shield their little bed, and the commotion had not even awakened them. The scene of the accident is known as Yoakam's Hill, and stately firs, spreading cedars the graceful rhododendron now grow in wild luxuriance where these hapless children lie in their dreamless sleep.The homestead was abandoned, as the poor mother could find no happiness there, and after a few sad months in Empire City and Eastport, they moved to the Coquiller River, where they remained until 1867, when they bought the William Jackson farm on South Coos River, and literally hewed for themselves a home out of the wilderness. In this home probably the happiest years of Mrs. Yoakam s life were spent; other children came to her almost empty arms, and listening to their happy laughter, her old sorrow gradually faded away. For many years “Yoakam's” was synonymous with good cheer and hospitality.Mrs. Yoakam was a woman of rare type, well fitted by nature for the struggles and adventures of pioneer life. Mr. Yoakam died in 1876, and for many years his widow successfully managed the farm, failing health finally compelling her to leave it. She was the mother of twelve children, five of whom survive her. (Coquille Herald)One of her children, George Yoakam, died in 1901, gored by a neighbor's wayward bull, leaving his wife Sarah, three daughters and a son. Taking a page from her mother-in-law, Sarah successfully managed the family farm in the wake of the tragedy.Sarah Yoakam Forges AheadThat a woman can conduct a dairy farm most successfully is nicely proved in the case of Mrs. Sarah Yoakam of Coos county, near Marshfield, Ore., whose husband, a prominent rancher, was killed by a vicious bull some thirteen years ago. In the years Intervening since she and her two daughters have conducted and developed the dairy business in which her husband was engaged. For a good share of the time they have done all the work on the farm, including the care of the dairy herd and the securing of the farm crops. (Union Star)Indeed Sarah not only succeeded on her farm, but went on to become a leader in the trade.Sarah Yoakam, who ran her husband's Coos County dairy upon his death seven years earlier, was voted the first female vice-president of the Oregon State Dairyman's Association. The next year she became the superintendent of the Dairy Department of the Oregon State Fair. (cooshistory.org)Now, how exactly this headland came to be known as Yoakam Point is not crystal clear. The acreage was one of 19 locations purchased by the state in 1968. The state wayside simply carried over the accepted name. Oregon Geographic Names suggests the name was in use for “many decades” prior to 1952, attributed to the pioneer family:For many decades this name has been applied to a small promontory about a mile west of Coos Head just south of the entrance to Coos Bay. It commemorates a family well known in the history of the county. (Oregon Geographic Names, 1952)Mussel ReefI think it's important to include the settler prehistory here. Before the name Yoakam Point gained acceptance among the settlers of the area, it seems like “Mussel Reef” was in play. The area was inhabited by the Coos people from time immemorial. This particular shoreline was an abundant intertidal zone rich with mollusks and crustaceans used for both food and regalia. Sites of archeological importance are documented here. A half mile west of Yoakam Point, sits Chiefs Island, on which stands the defunct Cape Arago Lighthouse. The island was repatriated to the Confederated Tribes of Coos, Lower Umpqua and Siuslaw in 2013. That site contains a very large, deep midden, indicating an extended presence on the island. It is closed to the public.Coos Bay was a distinctly rich cultural area prior to Euro-American settlement. it brought together five tribes speaking as many different languages (or dialects) within short distance each other: Miluk (Coos), Hanis (Coos), Quuiich (Lower Umpqua) Nasomah dialect (Lower Coquille) and Athabaskan (Upper Coquille).Noting the abundant natural resources and prospects for establishing a port, early settlers converged on the peninsula in the center of the bay, incorporating the town of Empire City next to a Miluk village, about 10 miles inland from Yoakam Point. Empire City is today the Empire neighborhood of the city of Coos Bay. Within just a few years of the first settlers arriving, the tribes were forcibly removed and eventually relocated to the Siletz Agency of the Coast Reservation. Like most treaties in the west, promises were broken when the US congress systematically failed to ratify them. Thanks for reading and listening. I'm grateful for your interest.

Not Anymore, Thanks to Trump's Tariff Tornado"- "From Basement Deals to Boardroom Brawls: Trump Cleans Biden's Mess with China"- "Party's Over, China: The Trump Administration is Back and Checking IDs"- "Biden's Chinese Fire Drill vs. Trump's America-First Playbook"Article: Party's Over, China: Trump is Back Let's face it: the last four years with Biden were the geopolitical equivalent of teenagers throwing a kegger while the parents were out of town. China helped itself to the liquor cabinet (read: our trade balance), wrecked the furniture (global stability), and left behind a suspicious stain we'll be scrubbing out for decades (fentanyl crisis, anyone?). Now Trump is back, broom in one hand and a tariff schedule in the other. And if you think Beijing is nervous, you'd be right.China's Four-Year Field Day The Biden administration gave “compromised” a new definition. With The Big Guy allegedly benefitting from overseas kickbacks, China enjoyed the kind of unchecked influence in U.S. policy that lobbyists only dream about. Trade surplus? Check. Ballooning fentanyl exports? Double check. Pardons for shady Chinese nationals? Why not, right? This wasn't leadership—it was a Groupon for corruption. Biden's presidency left Americans wondering: Was Xi Jinping running the White House via Zoom? (content: Include Biden's pardons for Chinese nationals, alleged ties through Hunter Biden's dealings, and how these actions emboldened China's aggressive stance globally.)Trump's Tariff Tornado: Turning the Tables Enter Donald Trump, the human storm warning for countries trying to outsmart America. Remember his first term? Trump slapped tariffs like Oprah giving out cars: “You get a tariff! You get a tariff!” Suddenly, Beijing had to play nice or face a 60% import tax that would make Walmart executives cry. He's already vowed a 10% tariff on Chinese goods and plans to strip China of its “Most Favored Nation” status. This isn't just tough talk—it's the equivalent of flipping the Monopoly board and saying, “We're playing my rules now.”    [X] SB – Trump on the Golden Age                   Exciting and successful period of reform and renewal. Intervening problems. China vThe Fentanyl Fight: Biden's Blind Spot, Trump's Target Under Biden, the fentanyl crisis ballooned. China's role in flooding American streets with deadly drugs? Barely a slap on the wrist. Trump, however, treats this as an act of war. His proposed tariffs are aimed directly at fentanyl precursors, and you can bet there's more coming. Because for Trump, “friendship” with Xi doesn't mean letting it slide. It means, “Fix this, or I'll fix it for you.”Trump and Xi: A Complex Dance Trump's relationship with Xi Jinping is like a WWE match—respectful handshakes one moment, body slams the next. While Biden treated Xi like an infallible overlord, Trump knows the value of calculated diplomacy. “Let 1,000 flowers bloom,” Trump joked, echoing an old Chinese saying. But make no mistake—if Trump is letting flowers bloom, he's already figured out how to sell them back to China at a premium.Cleaning Up Biden's Mess If Biden's foreign policy was a reality show, it'd be Keeping Up with the Corruptions. Trump's return is the reboot America desperately needed. Where Biden let China call the shots, Trump is the guy who picks up the phone and says, “New phone, who dis?” Trump's tough stance on trade, fentanyl, and global competition signals a new era—one where America isn't just playing defense; it's running the game.The Bottom Line Under Biden, China played the role of an uninvited houseguest who overstayed their welcome and stole the silverware on the way out. Trump's back, and he's not just kicking them out—he's billing them for damages. Because in Trump's America, the party's over for freeloaders, and the grown-ups are firmly back in charge.Closing CTA: “If you want more of this kind of leadership, buckle up. Trump's America-First policies are ready to remind Beijing—and the world—that the U.S. is open for business, but only on our terms.”What do you think of the tone? Would you like it even punchier?       The grown-ups are back running things, and just in time. I feel like the last 4 years with Biden is one of those teen movie scenes where the kids throw a party when the parents are gone from the home. Look at all that President Trump will have to clean up.   https://www.reuters.com/world/china-trump-talk-up-prospects-us-china-collaboration-2024-12-17/ BEIJING, Dec 17 (Reuters) - China's top diplomat said on Tuesday he hoped the incoming Trump administration would "make the right choice" and work with Beijing, hours after Donald Trump told reporters the COVID-19 pandemic had strained his relationship with "friend" Xi Jinping. "We hope the new U.S. administration will make the right choice and work with China in a mutually-beneficial manner to remove disruptions and overcome obstacles," Foreign Minister Wang Yi told a forum in Beijing, according to a statement from his ministry. "We had a very good relationship until COVID," Trump told reporters gathered at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida on Monday when asked whether Xi would attend his inauguration. "COVID didn't end the relationship, but it was a bridge too far for me." (…) Trump has indicated he plans to pick up where he left off with Beijing, and has vowed to impose an additional 10% tariff on Chinese goods to push China to do more to stop fentanyl flows into the U.S. He also previously pledged to end China's most-favoured-nation trading status and slap tariffs on Chinese imports in excess of 60% - much higher than those imposed during his first term. In response, China is seeking to amass bargaining chips to kick off talks with a new U.S. administration on contentious aspects of bilateral ties, including trade and investment, and science and technology, analysts say.     https://thehill.com/people/peter-navarro/ President-elect Trump's previous and incoming White House trade adviser, said it's best to let Trump “do his thing” in building relationships with the Chinese and other foreign actors so he can obtain the best deals for America. In an interview on NewsNation's “The Hill,” Navarro, a well-known China critic, was asked about Trump's comments at https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5042416-trump-mar-a-lago-press-conference-takeaways/ that “China and the United States can together solve all of the problems of the world.” Navarro — who was Trump's trade adviser in his first administration and will https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5021849-peter-navarro-senior-counselor-trade/ for trade and manufacturing in Trump's second — said he was with Trump when he met with Chinese President https://thehill.com/people/xi-jinping/on numerous occasions, and he is confident in the president-elect's ability to navigate relationships. “They have a relationship which can be productive dealing with things like Ukraine and Gaza and oil and all of that,” Navarro said about Trump and Xi. “So what we do is we trust https://thehill.com/people/donald-trump/in developing relationships with Xi, with Putin, with whoever is out there, [Recep Tayyip] Erdoğan in Turkey — people the left doesn't like because of their obvious authoritarian methods — yet for the good of this country, we have to let the boss do his thing in order to get the best deals for America,” Navarro said. “Let's see what happens.” Last week, https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/5036797-trump-inauguration-xi-jinping/to attend his inauguration in January. Navarro shot back when asked whether he was softening his position on China. “No, not at all,” Navarro said. “OK, we had that kind of relationship. Let 1,000 flowers bloom, as the Chinese might say, but we slapped them hard with tariffs, and we were the toughest presidency on China ever.”        Paul Stone is first and foremost a patriot, and Paul thank you for believing my show and my audience.
