The Rev. Jacob Davis continues his class on the Psalms with an overview of the different types of psalms and some of the literary devices they employ.

The Rev. Jacob Davis preaches a sermon on Hebrews 12, in which God disciplines those he loves. We can finish the race set before us because Christ has already been victorious over sin and death.

In this first class of his study of the Psalms, the Rev. Jacob Davis discusses several reasons for studying this book: it's the largest book of the Bible, it's the Old Testament book most often quoted in the New Testament, and more. 

To get ready for climate change, Montpelier is deconstructing a historic home on the property of the city's founding settler, Jacob Davis.

The Rev. Jacob Davis preaches a sermon on Hebrews 11, in which Old Testament saints are commended for their faith, and Luke 12, in which Jesus tells his disciples to be ready for action. The Good News is that Jesus is the savior, for anyone who puts their faith in him, no matter when in history.

The Rev. Jacob Davis preaches a sermon on Luke 10, in which Jesus tells the famous parable of the Good Samaritan. Though it does spur us on to love our neighbor, this story is fundamentally about Christ, who gives himself for us broken sinners.

The Rev. Jacob Davis preaches a sermon on Luke 10, in which Jesus sends 72 disciples into the world to do ministry. As we minister, we can resist our adversary Satan because of Christ's choosing and equipping us.

Send us a textIt is early summer of 1754 and a young George Washington leads a group of Virginia soldiers through the woods of western Pennsylvania. What he doesn't know, is that after an encounter with French forces in late June, he will end up in a much more significant engagement just a few short weeks later… However this will not be just a simple clash between colonial forces deep in the frontier of North America, but rather the subsequent Battle of Fort Necessity will become the catalyst to an all out war… one that would eventually spread across the globe! Join us and historical interpreter Jacob Davis as we explore the incident at Jumonville Glen and the Battle of Fort Necessity… prelude to the French and Indian War!

This Day in Legal History: Blue Jeans PatentedOn May 20, 1873, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office granted Patent No. 139,121 to Jacob Davis and Levi Strauss for an innovation that would revolutionize American workwear and fashion: the use of copper rivets to reinforce the stress points on men's work pants. Davis, a tailor from Reno, Nevada, originally developed the concept after customers complained about the durability of their trousers. He lacked the funds to file for a patent on his own, so he partnered with Strauss, a San Francisco dry goods merchant who had been supplying him with fabric. The riveted pants were constructed from denim—a sturdy cotton twill that Strauss already sold—which was tough enough for laborers, miners, and cowboys during the American Westward Expansion.The legal protection granted by the patent secured exclusive rights for Strauss and Davis to produce the reinforced trousers, giving them a significant advantage in the market. This protection enabled Levi Strauss & Co. to expand rapidly and establish itself as a dominant force in durable clothing for manual laborers. The patent also illustrates how intellectual property law can incentivize practical innovation by providing a framework for commercial exclusivity.While the original patent expired in 1890, the riveted jean had by then become an entrenched part of American identity. The evolution of the product—from utilitarian workwear to a global fashion staple—highlights how a simple legal instrument can underpin lasting commercial success. The legal recognition of their invention helped formalize what would become a uniquely American contribution to the world's wardrobe. Strauss and Davis's patent remains one of the most iconic examples of how intellectual property law intersects with design, utility, and culture.As federal AI regulation lags, state attorneys general (AGs) are stepping into the void by using existing laws—such as consumer protection, privacy, and anti-discrimination statutes—to govern the use of generative AI technologies. Although only California, Colorado, and Utah have passed AI-specific legislation, AGs across other states are issuing formal guidance and taking enforcement actions to address AI misuse. Key concerns include the use of personal data, deepfakes, fraudulent representations, and algorithmic bias in sectors like hiring, healthcare, and lending.California AG Rob Bonta has warned that AI tools causing misleading or discriminatory outcomes may violate state law, especially in sensitive fields like health and employment. Massachusetts AG Joy Campbell cautioned that misrepresenting AI capabilities or using AI-generated content to deceive consumers could breach the state's Consumer Protection Act. Oregon's guidance focuses on transparency, privacy, and anti-discrimination concerns, requiring consent for data use and allowing opt-outs from significant AI-based decisions. New Jersey's AG launched a Civil Rights and Technology Initiative targeting algorithmic bias, noting that even third-party tools can trigger liability under anti-discrimination laws. Texas AG Ken Paxton reached a settlement with an AI health tech firm over potentially misleading marketing, marking the first known AG enforcement action under consumer protection law involving generative AI.A Reuters column by Ashley Taylor of Clayton Friedman and Gene Fishel of Troutman Pepper Locke LLP emphasizes that companies cannot assume regulatory immunity simply because AI tools are new or complex. Liability can arise from disparate impacts alone, even absent intent to discriminate. Firms must carefully audit their AI systems, clarify marketing claims, and ensure fair and secure implementation across jurisdictions. Given the fragmented legal landscape, businesses should involve legal and technical leadership early in AI deployment to reduce risk exposure.State AGs fill the regulatory voidThe long-running feud between Donald Trump and New York Attorney General Letitia James has escalated sharply with a federal investigation now targeting James herself. Trump, having returned to the White House, now has the Justice Department behind him, while James continues to lead Democratic opposition through lawsuits challenging his policies. Both known for their combative styles, the two have clashed over ideology, politics, and Trump's business practices.The new front in their battle involves allegations that James committed mortgage fraud, based on documents where she allegedly misrepresented her primary residence and misstated details about her Brooklyn property. The Justice Department, acting on a referral from a federal housing agency, is investigating the claims through its offices in Virginia and New York. James's lawyer denies wrongdoing, saying the filings were accurate in context and reflect long-standing property use.James has framed the investigation as retaliation for her successful legal actions against Trump, including a high-profile civil fraud suit that resulted in a $450 million judgment against him for inflating asset values. Trump and his allies have attempted to link James's alleged conduct to the very behavior she prosecuted, suggesting hypocrisy.Despite the legal risks, the public feud may benefit both figures politically. James faces re-election in 2026, and her confrontation with Trump plays well with Democratic voters. For Trump, casting James as a corrupt adversary energizes his base. Their mutual antagonism has become a defining feature of New York's political and legal landscape.Donald Trump and Letitia James Raise Stakes in Bitter Feud - WSJThis week in my column for Bloomberg, I argue that House Republicans' push to repeal major clean energy tax credits from the Inflation Reduction Act is a short-sighted move that prioritizes fiscal optics over long-term national interest. While they claim to be reducing the deficit, the repeal would do little to constrain the $3.7 trillion cost of extending Trump-era tax cuts that largely benefit the wealthy. The energy credits being cut were not handouts but performance-based incentives—rewards for building, hiring, and deploying clean tech—that sparked a manufacturing and jobs boom, particularly in red states like Georgia and Tennessee.Eliminating these credits would introduce severe policy instability, undermining both current and planned investments. Companies made long-term siting and hiring decisions based on stable tax incentives; reversing them now would not only threaten those investments but signal to global capital markets that the U.S. is an unreliable industrial partner. I emphasize that the structure of the law—tying incentives to emissions reductions—was one of its best features, offering predictability that's now at risk.This volatility would be a gift to America's competitors. The EU and China are doubling down on green industrial policy, while the U.S. risks stalling momentum just as it began catching up. Trust in federal policy durability isn't easily regained once lost. The repeal wouldn't just cost jobs or projects—it would damage the credibility of American industrial policy in a global race where we're already behind. This is a public episode.

Joe Justin started repairing boots, then making his own. His wife Annie developed a self-measuring kit for mail orders. John Stetson mass produced hats, “Boss of the Plains” was a favorite. Immigrant Levi Strauss imported clothing, he joined with Jacob Davis to use copper rivets to reinforce their pants, which became the “501.” Early trousers were made of wool or canvas. Frontier dress with fringes was a part of western design. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Les jeans, aujourd'hui omniprésents dans le monde entier, doivent leur couleur bleue emblématique à des raisons historiques, pratiques et économiques. L'origine de cette teinte remonte au XIXe siècle, lorsqu'un tissu robuste, appelé « denim », a été teinté avec de l'indigo, un colorant naturel aux propriétés uniques. 1. L'origine de la teinte bleue : l'indigo La teinture bleue des jeans provient traditionnellement de l'indigo, un colorant végétal extrait de plantes telles que Indigofera tinctoria. Utilisé depuis l'Antiquité en Inde, en Égypte et en Chine, l'indigo était prisé pour sa capacité à fixer la couleur sur les fibres textiles tout en offrant une résistance au lavage et à l'usure. Lorsque Levi Strauss et Jacob Davis ont popularisé le jean en tant que vêtement de travail pour les mineurs et ouvriers dans les années 1870, ils ont choisi l'indigo pour teindre le denim, car cette couleur permettait de masquer les taches et la saleté accumulées au fil du temps. 2. Un choix pratique pour les ouvriers Le bleu indigo offrait plusieurs avantages pratiques pour les travailleurs de l'époque. Contrairement aux autres colorants qui pénètrent profondément dans les fibres, l'indigo se fixe en surface, permettant au tissu de s'éclaircir progressivement avec le temps et les lavages. Cela donnait aux jeans un aspect usé et patiné, apprécié à la fois pour son esthétique et pour sa capacité à rendre les vêtements plus confortables avec le temps. De plus, la teinte bleue absorbait moins la chaleur que les couleurs sombres comme le noir, ce qui était un avantage pour les travailleurs exposés au soleil pendant de longues heures. 3. L'évolution industrielle et la démocratisation Avec la révolution industrielle, la production de l'indigo synthétique a été développée par le chimiste allemand Adolf von Baeyer à la fin du XIXe siècle. Cela a permis de réduire considérablement les coûts de fabrication et de rendre la teinte bleue accessible à grande échelle. Le bleu est alors devenu la couleur standard du jean, associé à la robustesse et à l'image du travailleur. Dans les années 1950, le jean bleu est passé du vêtement de travail à un symbole de mode et de rébellion, notamment grâce à des icônes comme James Dean et Marilyn Monroe, ancrant définitivement cette couleur dans la culture populaire. Aujourd'hui, bien que le denim soit décliné en de nombreuses couleurs, le bleu reste dominant en raison de son héritage historique et de sa polyvalence esthétique. Hébergé par Acast.

PANTS! They were essential to Western Expansion in the 1800s... but damn if they didn't suffer frequent "blow outs" to the pockets and crotch! That's embarrassing! Luckily, a tailor named Jacob Davis took up the challenge to reinforce denim and found a partner in a certain famed jean magnate, way before he was even a jeans gent! Fast forward to today and we're all pretty much always wearing jeans because we love the look and that sweet sweet indigo weave. This episode, we discuss the FIRST LEVI'S JEANS! We also get buggy in the MouthGarf Report and silly in I SEE WHAT YOU DID THERE! Sources:https://www.levi.com/US/en_US/blog/article/lvc-first-blue-jeanhttps://www.levistrauss.com/levis-history/https://www.firstversions.com/2015/03/levi-strauss-co-blue-jeans.htmlhttps://www.beyondretro.com/blogs/news/the-history-of-levis-jeansPlease give us a 5 star rating on Apple Podcasts! Want to ask us a question?
