ITC 69 – The Exoplanet Gold Rush What happens when humanity stares into infinity and thinks it sees treasure? In this episode of In The Crease, we follow the fever and the hangover of abundance:Spain's silver fleets and the hollowing of an empireCalifornia and Klondike boomtowns that burned out overnightAliens?And finally, the asteroids themselves — rocks worth trillions, or worth nothing at all.From quintillion-dollar headlines to the cold math of markets, from ghost towns to orbital stock exchanges, ITC 69 asks the question no one wants to face: what happens when scarcity — the skeleton of money — finally breaks? Infinity is coming. The only question left is whether it remakes us, or ruins us.

Andrea Mella"Nostra Signora della frontiera"Bottega Errante Edizioniwww.bottegaerranteedizioni.itC'è in questa scrittura tutta l'umidità della terra e delle forre, il ghiaccio della neve e il dolore di chi è costretto a lunghi viaggi senza sapere dove approdare. Una storia di frontiera che diventa storia di riscatto, di riscoperta della propria umanità. Giulia CaminitoA est, lungo il confine orientale, si snoda la vita di Loris Degrassi, un passeur, un contrabbandiere di uomini che fa passare i migranti dall'altra parte. Loris è solo un manovale al soldo di trafficanti molto più potenti, ma pagano bene, e tanto gli basta. Lui fa quello che sa fare: batte piste secondarie, cosa che ha fatto per molti anni quando, col suo camioncino, consegnava bibite a bar e ristoranti della zona. Il suo destino si incrocia prima con quello di Branka, una donna che sconvolge la sua vita, e poi con quello di Adnan, un profugo siriano che ha intrapreso un viaggio attraverso la rotta balcanica per approdare in Europa, assieme al figlio Nadir. È da questi incroci che si aprirà una faglia nella coscienza di Loris, che, come se avesse fiutato l'aria che anticipa la discesa di una slavina, proverà a invertire la rotta che la sorte sembrava aver irrimediabilmente tracciato. "Una storia di frontiera che diventa storia di riscatto, di riscoperta della propria umanità" Andrea Mella, friulano di nascita, classe 1977, vive circondato dai campi nella provincia di Treviso, dove prova a recepire l'eco e le storie minute dei territori di confine. Nel 2014 pubblica Marittimo blues (Ediciclo), un reportage narrativo sulle genti di mare dell'alto Adriatico. Nel 2018 esce per le Edizioni del Foglio Clandestino la sua prima raccolta poetica, Il misantropo dei Sargassi. Suoi lavori, in prosa o poesia, sono apparsi tra l'altro sulle riviste “Risme”, “Il Foglio Clandestino”, “Digressioni” e sul blog di poesia della Rai.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

"80 to 90% of income for all artists, even Arijit Singh and Shreya Ghoshal, comes from live events only. YouTube pays barely 1-2 paise per stream today." This shocking revelation from Gaurav Dagaonkar exposes the broken economics of the music industry. While millions stream their favorite songs, artists make almost nothing from digital plays - a problem that led him to build Hoopr, India's leading music licensing platform. Gaurav Dagaonkar is the Co-founder and CEO of Hoopr, India's leading music licensing platform serving over 200,000 creators and 125+ enterprise clients including Myntra, ITC, and Marico. An IIM Ahmedabad MBA who rejected corporate placements to pursue music, Gaurav spent over a decade as a successful Bollywood music director working on films like Joker, Heartless, and Lanka. His YouTube channel Songfest has garnered half a million followers. After experiencing the industry's broken economics firsthand, he built Hoopr, which has raised multiple funding rounds and revolutionized how creators access licensed music. Host Akshay Datt explores how domain expertise combined with business acumen created this remarkable entrepreneurial success story. Key Insights from the Conversation:

This Day in Legal History: Organic Act Establishes the National Park ServiceOn August 25, 1916, President Woodrow Wilson signed the Organic Act, formally establishing the National Park Service (NPS) as a federal bureau within the Department of the Interior. This act marked a foundational moment in U.S. environmental and administrative law, as it created a centralized agency responsible for protecting and managing the country's growing number of national parks and monuments. Prior to this, national parks were overseen in a disjointed manner by various federal departments, often with limited resources or clear guidance. The Organic Act provided legal authority for the NPS to “conserve the scenery and the natural and historic objects and the wildlife therein,” while ensuring they remained “unimpaired for the enjoyment of future generations.”This statutory language introduced a lasting legal standard—the dual mandate of conservation and public enjoyment—that has guided U.S. park policy ever since. The law empowered the federal government to enforce regulations, manage visitor access, and develop infrastructure while preserving natural and cultural resources. Over time, this act laid the groundwork for the modern administrative state's role in environmental regulation. It also reflected an early recognition that public land could and should serve both ecological and civic functions.The NPS Organic Act helped inspire future legislation, including the Wilderness Act of 1964 and the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969. It also fueled legal debates around resource extraction, tribal land claims, and federalism. With the stroke of Wilson's pen, the United States committed itself to a legal philosophy of stewardship, enshrining the idea that public lands are a shared national trust. This day in legal history commemorates the birth of a legal and cultural institution that continues to shape American land use and environmental governance.Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom advised Intel Corp. in securing an $8.9 billion government investment deal, which includes granting the U.S. a 10% equity stake in the chipmaker. The agreement, announced by President Trump, comes months after Skadden and eight other major law firms pledged nearly $1 billion in free legal services in coordination with the White House. These services support causes such as veterans' advocacy, fighting antisemitism, and promoting justice system fairness. The firms reportedly entered the arrangement, in part, to avoid being targeted by executive orders that had been used against competitors.Skadden's role reflects its ongoing alignment with the administration's industrial and legal policy efforts, particularly as Intel seeks revitalization. The Federal Circuit also recently ruled that the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) wrongly dismissed one of Intel's patent invalidity arguments against a competitor, bolstering Intel's broader legal position. Separately, Kirkland & Ellis, another participating firm, has been involved in U.S. trade negotiations with Japan and Korea, facilitated by Trump adviser Boris Epshteyn. The president has indicated he may rely further on these firms for legal matters related to tariffs, coal, and defense of law enforcement. Skadden's leadership emphasized internally that the firm retains full autonomy in client and case decisions.Skadden Steers Intel in Deal With Trump to Boost ChipmakerKilmar Abrego, a 30-year-old migrant whose wrongful deportation to El Salvador had made national headlines, was detained again by U.S. immigration authorities in Baltimore just days after being released from criminal custody in Tennessee. His 2019 asylum protections had barred deportation to El Salvador due to threats from gangs, but he was nonetheless removed in March in what officials later admitted was an “administrative error.” After months in a harsh Salvadoran prison, he was brought back to the U.S. in June to face criminal charges for transporting undocumented migrants, to which he has pleaded not guilty.Upon checking in with ICE in Baltimore, Abrego was arrested again and is now facing possible deportation—this time to Uganda, a country with no connection to him. U.S. officials have reportedly offered Costa Rica as a destination if he agrees to a guilty plea, but without that, Uganda remains the likely alternative, a move his legal team argues is unconstitutional and coercive. His lawyer described the tactic as the government using “Costa Rica as a carrot and Uganda as a stick.”Abrego has filed a federal lawsuit to prevent deportation without judicial review and is currently protected by a Maryland court order requiring 72-hour notice before any removal to a third country. His legal team is also seeking to dismiss the federal charges, alleging selective and retaliatory prosecution tied to his earlier challenge of the unlawful deportation. A Tennessee federal judge previously found him neither a flight risk nor a public threat, supporting his release. The case continues to spotlight the legal complexities and rights violations emerging under the Trump administration's immigration policies.Wrongly deported migrant Abrego again detained by US immigration officials | ReutersA U.S. federal judge has blocked President Donald Trump's administration from withholding federal funds from over 30 sanctuary cities and counties, including Los Angeles, Boston, Chicago, and Baltimore. The ruling, issued by U.S. District Judge William Orrick, expands a previous injunction from April that protected 16 jurisdictions. These cities had challenged two executive orders signed by Trump earlier in the year, arguing they unlawfully threatened to strip funding unless local authorities cooperated with federal immigration enforcement.Sanctuary jurisdictions typically limit how much local police assist with federal civil immigration arrests. Judge Orrick ruled that the executive orders posed an unconstitutional, coercive threat by conditioning federal funding on compliance with federal immigration preferences. His new order extends protections to additional cities that recently joined the lawsuit. He emphasized that any further actions or executive orders pursuing the same goal are likewise blocked under his injunction.The Trump administration had already appealed the earlier ruling, and the White House has not commented on the latest expansion. Separately, California Governor Gavin Newsom is suing over Trump's deployment of the National Guard to Los Angeles following protests related to federal immigration enforcement.Judge blocks Trump from withholding funds from Los Angeles, other sanctuary cities | ReutersA recent legal dispute between Apple and medical device maker Masimo is testing the boundaries of U.S. Customs and Border Protection's (CBP) authority in enforcing patent-related import bans. The case began when CBP seized five Apple Watches in Chicago due to an International Trade Commission (ITC) exclusion order, issued after Masimo successfully argued that Apple's blood-oxygen sensor infringed its patents. However, CBP later approved Apple's software workaround—which shifts blood-oxygen processing to a paired iPhone—without notifying Masimo, prompting the company to sue.Masimo argues CBP overstepped its enforcement role by effectively ruling on a patent dispute without an adversarial process, thereby undermining the ITC's authority. The lawsuit claims the workaround still infringes under the "doctrine of equivalents," which treats minor design changes as infringing if they achieve substantially the same result. Legal experts note that CBP is not equipped to handle complex questions of indirect or contributory infringement, which could occur when a product only violates a patent when used in combination with another device.The case raises due process concerns, especially as CBP's later ruling was issued ex parte—without Masimo's input—despite an earlier inter partes process. Legal observers see this as part of a larger structural flaw in how CBP and the ITC coordinate enforcement of exclusion orders. The ITC has acknowledged the lawsuit and may intervene, signaling that the dispute could influence broader agency practices. If successful, Masimo could seek enforcement penalties from the ITC, potentially up to $100,000 per day. This litigation follows a rare legal path similar to a 2013 Microsoft case against CBP that ended in settlement.Apple Watch Import Ban Work-Around Suit Tests Customs' IP Role This is a public episode.

Luca Gianotti"Arriva dove non puoi"La traversata di Creta a piediEdiciclo Editorewww.ediciclo.itC'è tutta Creta, attraversata da Est a Ovest lungo un sentiero di una straripante bellezza, di indicibile suggestione. Ci sono montagne che sembrano toccare il cielo e squarci di azzurro giù in basso. Ci sono chiese e monasteri di un altro cristianesimo, fatto di liturgie e vicende che non sono le nostre, ma con le nostre intimamente intrecciate. C'è l'Oriente e c'è l'Occidente, in mezzo al Mediterraneo. C'è l'odore della salsedine che si mescola ai molteplici odori della macchia mediterranea. Ci sono i paesi e i villaggi dove la gente sa ancora trattare il viandante come un ospite e accoglierlo con generosità. Ci sono gli incontri di un camminatore che come sa abitare con agio la sua solitudine così sa aprirsi, ricevere, restituire. Un viaggio profondo, a passo rigorosamente lento, che si fa sfida interiore.Luca Gianotti, e nato nel 1961 a Modena, laurea in filosofia, guida di trekking da una ventina d'anni, tra i fondatori della Compagnia dei Cammini, in passato fondatore dell'associazione La Boscaglia e suo presidente per più di un decennio. È stato scialpinista con all'attivo alcune spedizioni alpinistiche importanti tra le quali la traversata del Vatnajokull (Islanda), il più grande ghiacciaio del mondo, e la salita al Khan Tengri (7010 m) in Thien Shan (confine Kazakistan/Kirghizistan). Tra le sue imprese anche la traversata del deserto del Sahara algerino in mountain bike. Camminatore in tante parti del mondo, dalla Patagonia alla Thailandia, dall'Albania a Capoverde, da Socotra (Yemen) alla Norvegia, anche se ha sempre privilegiato i cammini mediterranei, Grecia, Turchia, Italia del Sud e isole. In Italia ha creato alcuni trekking tra cui il Sentiero Spallanzani nell'Appennino reggiano, di cui ha pubblicato la guida. Accompagna gruppi in Sardegna, Creta, Capo Verde, Majella, Pollino, Murge, Corsica, Gargano, Samos. Si dedica all'approfondimento dei temi del camminare come terapia, e tiene corsi di camminate meditative. Il suo progetto su questo argomento è il Cammino Profondo, o Deep Walking. Gestisce un agriturismo in Abruzzo, dove organizza trekking con gli asini, il primo in Italia con la formula francese del trekking in autonomia, senza guida. Ultimo suo progetto realizzato è il CamminaCreta, la traversata di quest'isola per 500 km, per valorizzare un sentiero che può diventare cammino europeo.

Welcome to The Zenergy Podcast! Today, Karan speaks with Lynn Heller, Founder and CEO of Climate Access Fund. Climate Access Fund's mission is “to reduce the energy burden of Maryland's financially vulnerable households through access to discounted clean energy via community solar.” With that in mind, Lynn and Karan discuss what drew her to launch CAF and why she felt she wanted to deploy social impact capital into this space. They chat about the process of launching a company, how community solar has evolved over the years, and ways in which community solar can benefit lower income and underserved communities. This interview was recorded prior to the passing of the ‘Big Beautiful Bill,' however, Lynn expresses her thoughts on the impact of the ITC being eliminated if it were to be so and how it could affect developments on the ground. Finally, Lynn breaks down what gives her optimism for the future and what advice she'd give her young, graduate self. Thank you for checking out the podcast.

Climate Access Fund's mission is “to reduce the energy burden of Maryland's financially vulnerable households through access to discounted clean energy via community solar.” With that in mind, Lynn and Karan discuss what drew her to launch CAF and why she felt she wanted to deploy social impact capital into this space. They chat about the process of launching a company, how community solar has evolved over the years, and ways in which community solar can benefit lower income and underserved communities. This interview was recorded prior to the passing of the ‘Big Beautiful Bill,' however, Lynn expresses her thoughts on the impact of the ITC being eliminated if it were to be so and how it could affect developments on the ground. Finally, Lynn breaks down what gives her optimism for the future and what advice she'd give her young, graduate self. Thank you for checking out the podcast.

India's packaged-food bigwigs ignored spices for a long time. Not anymore.Since 2020, everyone from ITC to Tata Consumer Products, from Dabur to Wipro, has been scrambling to cement their place in this essential corner of the Indian kitchen. They've pounced on spice brands, sometimes paying top dollar for them, all while their investors cheered them on. In fact, the stocks of Tata Consumer and ITC have both outperformed the S&P BSE FMCG index over the last five years.Turns out, this was all the vindication that Norwegian conglomerate Orkla needed to go publicBut this isn't just another public listing. It's the opening salvo in what industry insiders are calling the “great spice wars”. And here's where it gets even spicier: though the category offers some of the highest margins in FMCG products—with pure spices commanding 30–35% gross margins and blended spices going up to 60%—they come with their own unique challenges.Tune in.

Episode Overview This episode dives deep into the evolving solar landscape—covering key state-level policy battles, rising resistance to distributed solar, the latest federal tax package in Congress, and the long term trends in the solar industry. Fox Swim, Senior Solar Industry Researcher at Aurora Solar, shares expertise on policy, utility rates, and resiliency-minded markets.   Key Themes & Highlights Aurora Solar & Fox's Expertise Aurora provides industry-leading solar design and sales software globally.   State-Level Anti-Solar Trends Utilities favor centralized generation, clashing with distributed energy advocates.   California's AB 942 aims to end grandfathered NEM/NEM 2 contracts when homes are sold, pushing owners into less favorable NEM 3 tariffs—effectively breaking existing contracts.   Resiliency & Distributed Generation Extreme weather, aging grid infrastructure, and power instability are driving demand for solar + storage. Distributed generation is seen as a smarter, faster, and more resilient solution than central utility models. Virtual battery programs in states like Connecticut are emerging as positive examples.   Federal Tax Bill & IRA Disruptions The recent House tax bill introduces critical threats:   Elimination of IRA incentives (including ITC, storage, and battery credits). “Fiat” sourcing restrictions targeting Chinese-manufactured solar components, potentially nullifying battery and panel subsidies. Fox warns of an unplanned “solar winter” where many small players may fold, though core demand won't vanish. Emphasis is shifting toward resilience and independence—not just ROI.   2025 Aurora Solar Snapshot Insights (Backed by Aurora's data on ~12.5 million projects, surveys of 1,000+ homeowners, 1,000 professionals, and 500+ businesses) Resilience over ROI: 76% of homeowners view solar as a good investment (up from 43% in 2023)  Financing shifts: Third‑party ownership (leases/PPAs) are growing; battery demand surges with 78% installers seeing increased interest  Bipartisan appeal: Solar cuts across party lines—Republicans, Democrats, and Independents all value solar and IRA  Trust challenges: Installer mistrust doubled—44% of homeowners find trustworthy companies hard to identify  Motivations revealed: Top drivers: bill savings, energy independence, environmental impact (>50% cite environment as a top-3 reason)    Tactical Takeaways for Mavericks Strengthen Trust – Improve transparency and contract clarity; be proactive about ethical sales practices. Refocus Messaging – Highlight solar + storage for resilience and independence—especially in disaster-prone regions. Engage Politically – Contact local/state reps, especially around bills like North Carolina's ITC reinstatement. Diversify Revenue – Build resilience offerings or pivots like community solar and virtual battery programs. Advocacy & Data – Join efforts with industry groups (SEIA, ACORE), and use Aurora's regional data in policymaker discussions.   Quotes from the Interview “76% of homeowners now say solar is a smart investment—it used to be 43%!”   “Installer trust has tanked: 44% of homeowners find it hard to pick a dependable provider.”   “Solar isn't just about ROI anymore—it's energy independence and resilience.”   Benoy Thanjan Benoy Thanjan is the Founder and CEO of Reneu Energy and he is also an advisor for several solar startup companies.  He has extensive project origination, development, and financial experience in the renewable energy industry and in the environmental commodities market.   This includes initial site evaluation, permitting, financing, sourcing equipment, and negotiating the long-term energy and environmental commodities off-take agreements.

PARANORMAL ENCOUNTERS: Be Careful What You Wish For.  This episode will run on the Para-X Radio Network (www.paraxradionetwork.com) on Thursday, September 25, 2025 from 11:00 PM-12:00 Midnight (EST). Educational. Entertaining. Intriguing.Keith J. Clark is an avid experimenter and community leader in the field of Instrumental Transcommunication, a form of communication with non-physical people using electronics.  As part of the generation that became familiar with EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomena) due to the movie White Noise in 2005, Keith began experimenting – first with sound, and then pictures. He began experiencing strange voices and sounds on his experiment radio – and this continued for years in pursuit of what is known as “Direct Radio Voice.” It was live streamed to the world back in 2008 – and is still live streamed, 24 hours a day. In 2007 he discovered that people in Spirit could send their pictures by Using ONLY SOUND. This is a very rare form of ITC, is largely unknown, and hasn't quite caught on yet.  In 2016, things began to take an even stranger turn. Voices were still heard when there was no radio or voice in the experiment!  These development streams have not previously been released to the public, but they are pointing to a much greater discovery…a clear link between OUR Energy and the experiments we participate in, as well as the potential for the development of mediumship using machines!  Keith is the creator of ITCBridge and iDigitalMedium websites, devoted to furthering knowledge of life after death and communication with spirit.

Welcome to Paranormal Spectrum, where we illuminate the enigmatic corners of the supernatural world. I'm your host, Barnaby Jones, and today we have a very special guest joining us:Five-time author Ron Yacovetti is living in his home state of New Jersey. However, he began investigating the paranormal during his 14 years as a resident of Los Angeles, California. This geographic diversity gave him the opportunity to investigate some of the most notable haunts on both coasts.He has a unique background as a stand-up comedian (aka satirist), a writer, and Paranormal Investigator. Ron's background with satire, along with this empirical experience, has shaped his philosophical view of the absurd and paranormal. He applies a keen sense of awareness when hypocrisy and a lack of continuity of thought which can oftentimes pervade the paranormal landscape. He is truly the cynic's, cynic.And while Ron enjoys all aspects of investigating the unknown, his affinity and area ofSpecificity in the afterlife research was almost instantly discovered in the area known as ITC: Instrumental Trans-Communication. Despite ITC having been an acronym synonymous with the Spirit Boxes or Ghost Boxes for years, in 2019 Ron resurrected the European methodology of ITC known as DRV: DIRECT RADIO VOICE. Prior to this taking place, no one in ITC was doing anything outside of the sweeping ghost box modality. Period. So, through the removal of any radio this methodology has evolved into “TDSe: The Digital Séance Experience” - producing anomalous vocals out of pure white noise.Over years of research into audio phenomena, Ron believes we need focus on more than the anomalous voices themselves, and instead, spend more time on the study of consciousness, as well as Philosophy. The anomalous voices alone are not enough to advance us in the battle for support regarding vocal high strangeness. ITC practitioners have been serving up fantastic voice phenomena recordings for decades and yet we are still arguing for the validity of these voices in 2025! Gone are the days where we can afford to say that these voices are beyond what science can address, whilst we immediately lean on science to validate them. Ron sees the path forward as one which alters how we present our findings as well as how they will be received by others.Building upon a foundation or metaphysics of Analytic Idealism, the concept of reality or nature as being fundamentally mental, we then allow for what we experience and deem supernatural to be quite natural without our continuing conflicts with science. Voices alone have not elevated the acceptance of ITC work and to continue to solely rely on them IS the very definition of insanity.Ron's Websitehttps://www.gonyacparanormal.com/Ron's Books on Amazonhttps://www.amazon.com/stores/Ron-Yacovetti/author/B0B489ZQTV?ref=sr_ntt_srch_lnk_1&isDramIntegrated=true&shoppingPortalEnabled=true&ccs_id=70f000db-7370-45f9-ad6f-fd9d43bfd3f9Click that play button, and let's unravel the mysteries of the UNTOLD!

Alfio Caruso"Incursori del re"La vera storia della X Mas.Neri Pozza Editorewww.neriopozza.itC'è un prima e c'è un dopo, nella storia della X flottiglia Mas della Regia Marina Italiana, e lo spartiacque è l'8 settembre 1943, quando il comandante Junio Valerio Borghese raduna i suoi incursori e annuncia di volersi schierare al fianco della Repubblica sociale e dei nazisti. Lo seguiranno in pochi, macchiando però per sempre quella che era stata fino ad allora una gloriosa storia militare, una storia di lealtà e coraggio, di patriottismo, disciplina ed eroismo. Prima di tutto questo, a cavalcioni dei celebri «maiali», e a differenza di tanti ammiragli, che nonostante le corazzate di cui disponevano non sfidarono mai gli inglesi in battaglia, gli uomini della X Mas assaltarono per tre anni le due principali roccheforti nemiche nel Mediterraneo, Gibilterra e Alessandria, e s'immolarono a Malta proprio per supplire alle deficienze della Marina. Le piccole storie private di ciascuno di loro svelano che ne avrebbero fatto volentieri a meno. Lontani da ogni ideologia (i fascisti erano una minuscola minoranza), intrisi di sincero patriottismo risorgimentale, si batterono in una guerra che sapevano già di perdere. Trentun medaglie d'oro raccontano il loro comportamento meglio di tante parole. Paradossalmente furono gli inglesi i cantori delle imprese della X flottiglia Mas. Lionel Crabb, leggendario agente dell'MI6, numero uno dei sub britannici e responsabile della squadra anti-incursori di Gibilterra, onorava i caduti italiani lanciando in mare corone di fiori, e dopo l'armistizio dell'8 settembre '43, andò a cercare i vecchi nemici per arruolarli nella guerra contro i nazifascisti. Da de la Penne a Straulino, da Birindelli a Forza, l'ultimo comandante della X, in tanti accorsero all'appello della nuova Italia, e stavolta a saltare per aria furono i navigli tedeschi a Genova, a La Spezia, a Imperia. Il modo migliore di ripristinare il prestigio di un reparto infangato da Borghese e dai suoi marò.Alfio Caruso (Catania, 1950), giornalista e scrittore, dopo quattro romanzi si è dedicato alla storia italiana del Ventesimo secolo. Ne ha narrato l'escalation mafiosa (Da Cosa nasce Cosa, Perché non possiamo non dirci mafiosi, Io che da morto vi parlo, Milano ordina: uccidete Borsellino), l'abbondanza di misteri (Il lungo intrigo) e i piú importanti episodi della Seconda guerra mondiale (Arrivano i nostri, In cerca di una Patria, Noi moriamo a Stalingrado).

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! When Austin Maynard rolled into tiny Bryan, Ohio, in 2018, he didn't just unpack boxes—he unpacked an entire network of hauntings. Within months, the Underground Paranormal Network was born: seven historic buildings linked by shadowed hallways, forgotten secrets, and the beeping cadence of EMF meters. But Austin isn't content to chase goosebumps; he's revitalizing Main Street while he's at it, turning abandoned landmarks into overnight labs where history and high-tech collide. Armed with custom ghost boxes, hacked radios, and more ITC gadgets than a late-night infomercial, he calls himself an experimentalist—because “researcher” sounds too safe. Tonight, we follow Austin from creaking opera houses to once-shuttered jails, hear the voices he's pulled from the static, and learn how a town's forgotten past just might save its future.

The opportunity zones (OZ) incentive remains a versatile tool in the workshop of community development, housing production and renewable energy generation. In this week's episode of the Tax Credit Tuesday podcast, host Michael Novogradac, CPA, and guest Brent Parker, CPA, discuss the intersection of the OZ incentive with other tax incentives, including renewable energy tax credits (RETCs) such as the investment tax credit (ITC) and production tax credit (PTC), low-income housing tax credits (LIHTCs), new markets tax credits (NMTCs) and historic tax credits (HTCs). Parker and Novogradac discuss some of the benefits and challenges of combining OZs with these other financial tools, including discussing various types of transaction structures. The two talk about the possibilities for the incentive before the Dec. 31, 2026, expiration to realize capital gains, which may see an extension after its inclusion in the U.S. House of Representatives Ways and Means Committee's reconciliation budget proposal this week.

Kutoka kakao ghafi huko Bundibugyo, magharibi mwa Uganda hadi Kampala mji mkuu wa kibiashara wa taifa hilo la Afrika Mashariki ndiko kunapatikana kiwanda cha kutengeneza chokoleti cha Equator kinachomilikiwa na Barbara Gonget na mume wake Gustav. Awali wazo la biashara hii lilionekana kutokuwa na mashiko. Ingawa hivyo baada ya ITC, ambacho ni Kituo cha Kimataifa ha Biashara kilicho chini ya Shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Biashara na Maendeleo, UNCTAD pamoja na wadau wao kuweka usaidizi wao, hali imebadilika na sasa biashara inavuka sio tu mipaka bali mabara. Wawili hao Kwa kuchanganya mbinu za hali ya juu, zinazojali jamii, na ufundi wa kitaalamu, wanabadili taswira ya uzalishaji wa chokoleti nchini humo.Je wamefanya nini? Assumpta Massoi anafafanua zaidi kwenye makala hii iliyofanikishwa na ITC.

The U.S. grid is facing its biggest stress test since WWII. The answer? Batteries.Joan White, Director of Storage & Interconnection Policy at SEIA, joins Nico on the PowerUp Live stage at RE+ Northeast to unpack the audacious 700 GWh storage deployment target laid out in SEIA's latest white paper. That's a 50% increase over the “business as usual” trajectory—and Joan believes it's not just possible, but necessary.As AI data centers, EV adoption, and manufacturing supercharge national energy demand, the grid must evolve. Energy storage isn't a luxury anymore—it's a requirement. Joan walks us through the policy levers, market dynamics, and cost curves shaping this once-in-a-generation energy transformation.

Tom welcomes back Simon Hunt, an expert on global economics, China, and the copper industry. Hunt discusses the escalating tensions between the U.S. and Iran, driven by Trump's tariff policies and geopolitical ambitions. He explains that these tensions could lead to regional conflicts, with significant implications for global markets and supply chains. Hunt also explores the broader shift in global power dynamics, highlighting how nations like China, Russia, and Iran are strengthening ties through organizations like BRICS. He warns that U.S.-China trade disputes, including high tariffs on Chinese goods, are causing severe disruptions to global supply chains and manufacturing sectors. These disruptions are expected to lead to a global economic slowdown or recession. The conversation delves into the potential impact of these developments on financial markets, particularly the value of the dollar, which Hunt suggests may undergo significant changes as countries seek alternative currencies tied to gold. He also discusses copper's role as an economic barometer, predicting price volatility and eventual increases due to supply chain disruptions and long-term demand shifts. Hunt concludes by emphasizing the uncertainty and chaos that dominate the current geopolitical landscape, urging caution for businesses and investors as they navigate this complex environment. The episode ends with a note on the importance of staying informed about global developments to understand their far-reaching implications.

In 1961, he came back to London and joined Anglo American Corporation of South Africa as a PA to one of the Board Directors, followed by being part of a small sales and marketing team for copper. From there, he helped start up a new copper development organization, CIDEC, financed by copper producers, which he then joined, focusing on conducting end-use studies of copper in Europe. He then went into the City to gain financial experience and founded Brook Hunt in 1975. He was instrumental in setting up the company's cost studies and end-use analyses. Simon appeared as material witness and consultant in two ITC anti-dumping cases in 1978 and 1984, winning both at the commission level. He has spent 2-4 months every year in China since 1993, and until a few years ago would be visiting some 80 wire and cable and brass mill factories across the country every year. He now restricts these factory visits to a smaller number, all of which he has known for many years. Simon also spends many weeks each year traveling around Asia. The focus of the company's services is on the global economy, including the changing geopolitical and financial structures, China's economy and its copper sector, and then the global copper industry as each part is interconnected. Simon is the author of the "Frontline China Report Service," which is marketed by the TIS Group. The Service provides regular reports on China's economy, politics, and financial outlook. Simon established this company in January 1996.
