I always keep a copy in my pocket, and I share it with people who are curious about our standards. It has been updated and refreshed to better cope with the challenges and temptations of our day. The new version of For the Strength of Youth is available online in 50 different languages and will also be available in print. It will be a significant help for making choices in your life. Please embrace it as your own and share it with your friends. This new version of For the Strength of Youth is subtitled A Guide for Making Choices. To be very clear, the best guide you can possibly have for making choices is Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the strength of youth. So the purpose of For the Strength of Youth is to point you to Him. It teaches you eternal truths of His restored gospel—truths about who you are, who He is, and what you can accomplish with His strength. It teaches you how to make righteous choices based on those eternal truths.13 It's also important to know what For the Strength of Youth does not do. It doesn't make decisions for you. It doesn't give you a “yes” or “no” about every choice you might ever face. For the Strength of Youth focuses on the foundation for your choices. It focuses on values, principles, and doctrine instead of every specific behavior. The Lord, through His prophets, has always been guiding us in that direction. He is pleading with us to “increase [our] spiritual capacity to receive revelation.”14 He is inviting us to “hear Him.”15 He is calling us to follow Him in higher and holier ways.16 And we are learning in a similar way every week in Come, Follow Me.   ACU Endorsed Charities -------------------------------------------------------- Pre-Born!

We are proud to have fed millions of people and provided more than 15.7 billion dollars in aid. Our faith inspires us to be an organization built on compassion, and motivated by love. Our mission is to bring relief to the poorest of the poor in the countries where we serve. We strive to reflect God's unconditional love. It's a sacrificial love that embraces all people regardless of race or religion. We believe that we can show His love by serving the “least of these” on this earth as Christ challenged us to do in Matthew 25. We pray that by God's grace, and with your support, we can continue to bring relief to the suffering and hope to the hopeless.   Way Maker – 90's Hair Metal Version (AI Worship) A.I.

Ya estamos en el mes de marzo. El tiempo pasa volando, ¿verdad? Ya hace casi dos años que llegamos a Luxemburgo. Parece mentira. Y hablando de mentiras, lo que no parece real es la noticia que vamos a escuchar hoy. Pero puedo asegurarte que ha pasado de verdad. Es muy curiosa. Y antes de ir con ella quiero situarte un poco en el contexto general de la seguridad en España. Porque la noticia va de eso, de seguridad. En primer lugar, imagino que querrás saber si España es un país seguro en términos de delincuencia, o sea, de robos, agresiones, asesinatos y ese tipo de cosas. Pues bien, según los datos más recientes, la criminalidad en España ha bajado casi un 1% respecto al año anterior. A nivel internacional, España aparece de forma habitual entre los países con niveles de criminalidad bajos. También en los rankings europeos, las ciudades españolas suelen ocupar posiciones favorables en comparación con otras de Francia, Italia o el Reino Unido, que suelen presentar índices más altos de delitos y sensación de inseguridad. ¿Significa eso que no existe delincuencia? No, por supuesto. Como ocurre en casi todos los países, los delitos se concentran sobre todo en las grandes ciudades y en los lugares con mucho turismo. Por ejemplo, en ciudades como Barcelona o Madrid, los pequeños robos siguen siendo frecuentes, especialmente en zonas muy visitadas. Además, hay un fenómeno creciente en los últimos años: la cibercriminalidad, los delitos en internet, que ya representan alrededor del 20 % de los delitos totales en España. Aun así, las cifras muestran que España conserva una estabilidad notable: desde 2010, la tasa de criminalidad apenas ha cambiado, y se sitúa alrededor de 50 delitos por cada 1.000 habitantes, un nivel relativamente bajo y comparable a los países europeos más seguros. En resumen, podemos decir que España es, en general, un país seguro, con niveles bajos de delincuencia violenta, mucha presencia policial y un sentimiento de seguridad elevado en la mayoría de las regiones. Los principales problemas siguen siendo los robos y ciertos delitos urbanos vinculados al turismo, pero las tendencias globales no muestran un aumento preocupante. Con este contexto ya explicado, vamos ahora a una historia que demuestra que, a veces, hasta los delitos más pequeños pueden acabar resolviéndose… gracias a la suerte. No quiero darte más detalles. Prefiero que escuches la noticia y luego la analizamos con calma. Pertenece a Radio Nacional de España. “Noticia curiosa, la mala suerte de un ladrón en Avilés. Le han detenido al intentar cobrar los décimos de lotería que había robado en una casa. Más datos desde Oviedo, Teresa Coto. El caso de la lotería premiada. Es el nombre que la Policía Nacional puso a la investigación para dar con el ladrón del robo perpetrado en Avilés el pasado 15 de diciembre, en el que se sustrajeron joyas, relojes y también varios décimos del sorteo de la lotería de Navidad. Uno resultó premiado con 120 euros. El sospechoso envió a otra persona a cobrar el décimo y así es como los agentes dieron con él. Ignacio Alonso de la Torre, portavoz de la Policía Nacional en Asturias. Lo que no esperaba es que el azar se pusiera de parte de los dueños de la casa. El día 22, uno de esos décimos ganó un premio y la policía, que ya estaba sobre la pista, empezó a vigilar de cerca las administraciones de lotería. Al final, el décimo premiado, que debía ser su gran botín, se convirtió en la prueba definitiva para que la Policía Nacional le pusiera las esposas. Por eso recuerdan los agentes la importancia de que las víctimas de robos denuncien detalladamente los objetos sustraídos.” ¿Qué te ha parecido? El ladrón no era muy inteligente, ¿verdad? O a lo mejor pensaba que la policía era tonta. Bueno, el caso es que le atraparon por querer cobrar el billete de lotería que había robado. Pero vamos con las palabras y expresiones más importantes. Décimo de lotería: Es la décima parte de un billete oficial de lotería, especialmente en el Sorteo de Navidad en España. Mi compañero de trabajo y yo compramos un décimo a medias todos los años. Encontré un décimo antiguo en un cajón, pero ya estaba caducado. Perpetrar: Cometer un delito o una acción ilegal, normalmente con cierta planificación. La policía detuvo a dos personas que habían perpetrado varios fraudes bancarios. El robo fue perpetrado de madrugada, cuando no había nadie en la tienda. Sustraer: Robar algo, especialmente de forma discreta o aprovechando un descuido. Es un verbo formal. Le sustrajeron la cartera en el metro sin que se diera cuenta. El vigilante descubrió que un cliente intentaba sustraer varios productos. Joyas: Objetos de valor hechos con metales preciosos o piedras preciosas, como collares, anillos o pulseras. Mi abuela me dejó algunas joyas antiguas como recuerdo. En el museo había una vitrina llena de joyas de distintas épocas. Azar: Fuerza o causa que hace que las cosas sucedan sin control o sin planificación; suerte. Ganamos el concurso por puro azar, no porque lo esperáramos. El orden de los participantes se decidió al azar. Estar sobre la pista: Tener indicios o información que ayudan a resolver un caso o descubrir algo. Los científicos están sobre la pista de una nueva especie de insecto. Creo que estoy sobre la pista del problema del ordenador: puede ser la batería. Administración de lotería: Establecimiento oficial donde se venden y se cobran billetes y décimos de lotería. Siempre compro mis números en la misma administración del barrio. La administración estaba llena porque acababan de repartir un premio. Botín: Conjunto de objetos robados durante un delito. Los ladrones huyeron con un botín de varios teléfonos móviles. El botín de la banda incluía dinero y aparatos electrónicos. Esposas: Instrumento metálico que se coloca en las muñecas para inmovilizar a una persona detenida. El sospechoso fue trasladado esposado a la comisaría. El policía sacó las esposas en cuanto el hombre se resistió a la detención. “Noticia curiosa, la mala suerte de un ladrón en Avilés.

Por eso recuerdan los agentes la importancia de que las víctimas de robos denuncien detalladamente los objetos sustraídos.” Recuerda, un objeto sustraído es un objeto robado. Y ahora te cuento la noticia cambiando el mayor número de palabras posibles. Se trata de una historia sorprendente que ha ocurrido en Avilés, en el norte de España. Es un caso que mezcla mala fortuna, un robo doméstico y un ladrón que no estuvo muy fino a la hora de planear su huida. Según la información policial, a mediados de diciembre un individuo entró en una vivienda y se llevó diversos objetos de valor: alhajas, relojes y también varios billetes del sorteo de Navidad, lo que en España conocemos como décimos. Hasta aquí, nada fuera de lo habitual en un robo. Pero la cosa se complicó para él cuando uno de esos billetes resultó ser agraciado con un pequeño premio. El ladrón, intentando no levantar sospechas, decidió que otra persona fuera en su lugar a reclamar el dinero. Lo que no sabía es que los agentes ya seguían el rastro del caso y tenían controlados los puntos donde se pueden cobrar los premios, es decir, las administraciones de lotería. Así que en cuanto esa persona se presentó allí para canjear el décimo, la policía consiguió identificarla y, a partir de ahí, llegar sin dificultad hasta el presunto autor del robo. Al final, lo que él pensaba que sería su mayor ganancia, terminó siendo la prueba clave que permitió a los investigadores detenerlo y ponerle los grilletes. Por eso, la Policía recuerda siempre la importancia de denunciar con detalle todos los objetos robados, incluidos documentos, tickets o billetes que, como en este caso, pueden convertirse en la pieza fundamental para resolver la investigación. La verdad es que cada vez es más difícil cometer un delito y que la policía no encuentre al responsable. El ADN, los teléfonos móviles y otras muchas cosas facilitan el trabajo de los agentes por suerte para todas las personas decentes. Venga, escuchamos la noticia por última vez. “Noticia curiosa, la mala suerte de un ladrón en Avilés. Le han detenido al intentar cobrar los décimos de lotería que había robado en una casa.

Por eso recuerdan los agentes la importancia de que las víctimas de robos denuncien detalladamente los objetos sustraídos.” Antes de terminar, me gustaría contarte cuáles son, según los datos internacionales más recientes, los países que hoy se consideran los más inseguros del mundo. Encabezan la lista Venezuela, Papúa Nueva Guinea y Haití, todos con índices cercanos o superiores a 80 puntos, lo que se considera una criminalidad muy alta. Estas cifras reflejan problemas profundos como inestabilidad política, economías muy frágiles, presencia de bandas armadas y dificultad para mantener sistemas policiales eficaces. Otras fuentes internacionales confirman que países como Afganistán, Sudáfrica, Honduras, Trinidad y Tobago, Siria, Jamaica y Perú también aparecen entre los más peligrosos debido a los altos niveles de violencia, conflictos armados o crimen organizado. Y como tenemos a una suscriptora que vive en Trinidad y Tobago, a lo mejor puede dejarnos un comentario para saber si es verdad lo que dicen las estadísticas. En resumen, aunque cada país tiene su propia realidad, los más inseguros suelen compartir algunos elementos en común: conflicto armado, crisis políticas prolongadas, desigualdad extrema, redes criminales muy activas y poca capacidad del Estado para garantizar la seguridad. Y dicho esto, contrasta mucho con el caso de España, de la que hablábamos al principio: un país donde la criminalidad se mantiene en niveles bajos y relativamente estables, y donde la mayoría de delitos no son violentos. Ahora, para terminar, repasamos las palabras y expresiones que hemos aprendido hoy. Décimo de lotería: Es la décima parte de un billete oficial de lotería, especialmente en el Sorteo de Navidad en España. Perpetrar: Cometer un delito o una acción ilegal, normalmente con cierta planificación. Sustraer: Robar algo, especialmente de forma discreta o aprovechando un descuido.

The Dutch special municipality of Bonaire in the Caribbean is already experiencing dangerous heat and could see a fifth of its land disappear under rising seas by 2100. But the Netherlands is discriminating against these overseas citizens by failing to adequately reduce global warming emissions and develop adaptation plans to help them cope, according to a January 2026 Dutch court decision.   Also, poet and author Jason Allen-Paisant left his native Jamaica to gain a graduate school education and prize-winning poetry career in England and France. He now looks back with wonder at the green of Jamaica where generations of his ancestors fed and healed his family. He shares this history in his book The Possibility of Tenderness: A Jamaican Memoir of Plants and Dreams.   And urine is packed with nutrients such as phosphorus and nitrogen, which can be pollutants when they enter the environment unchecked. But these can also be turned into vital fertilizer to nourish our crops, and 2025 MacArthur Fellow William Tarpeh, an Assistant Professor of Chemical Engineering at Stanford University, is developing methods for “refining” wastewater.

Want to talk about what you're hearing in this episode with Josh and Drew and others that share your experience?https://disordered.fm/community----In this episode, Josh and Drew break down the "Stress Jug"—a metaphor designed to explain why anxiety and panic often seem to appear out of nowhere. The guys discuss how accumulated stress, both positive and negative, can cause your "threat response" to overflow, leading to sensitization and the search for a threat where none exists.The Mechanics of Overflow: How the amygdala misinterprets a full "stress jug" as immediate danger, triggering unexpected fear and physical symptoms.The Role of Meaning-Making: Why your brain creates narratives (like health anxiety or fear of "going crazy") to explain internal discomfort.Beyond "Emptying the Jug": Why recovery isn't about avoiding stress or keeping the jug empty, but learning to tolerate the overflow when life gets heavy."Meta-Stress": Understanding the additional weight of being stressed about being stressed, and how that contributes to the cycle of disordered anxiety.The "Gunk" at the Bottom: Addressing long-term factors like grief, self-esteem, or unprocessed emotions that occupy space in your jug.We're also sharing "Did It Anyway" stories from the community, including a listener's trip to Jamaica despite anxiety and a first-time solo drive after years of avoidance. These stories highlight the importance of taking action even when you don't yet believe you are safe.---The Disordered Guide to Health Anxiety is now available. If you're struggling with health anxiety, this book is for you.---Struggling with worry and rumination that you feel you can't stop or control? Check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Worry and Rumination Explained⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, a two hour pre-recorded workshop produced by Josh and Drew.

From there, the hosts dissect Airbnb's widening blast radius: airport transfers, grocery delivery tests, revived experiences, a bigger hotel push, and (again) a non-points loyalty experiment. Ben argues the ambition is coherent but execution has historically lagged—so the question is what Airbnb actually nails in the next 6–12 months. Then the episode turns to the bigger tectonic shift: agentic AI and whether it breaks the OTA model. Scott calls it noise until it works; Ben and Edwin push that consumers will prefer conversational planning to endless deal-scrolling, pressuring commissions and “propping up mediocrity” less and less. Spice of the Week closes on the coming job title nobody's staffed for yet: the people who manage fleets of agents—and the businesses that still win because humans show up.   This Week in Hospitality is presented to you by Journey.

Our mission is to give operators the same powerful rewards engine, data intelligence, and guest insights that major chains rely on — without asking them to give up the individuality, soul, or story that makes their property extraordinary.

Spiritual Renewal Week:Andrea Scott(Staley Guest)  Dr. Andrea Scott is a Christian educator, leader, and speaker whose work explores the formation of conscience at the intersection of faith, culture, and everyday life. Raised in Kingston, Jamaica, she grew up with a deep awareness of how education shapes not only individuals, but the communities and institutions they go on to serve. For more than three decades, Dr. Scott has worked in Christian higher education, business, and global leadership, helping students and institutions discern how vocation, integrity, and faithfulness take shape in complex cultural systems. A former Fulbright Scholar, she has served in senior leadership roles at Christian universities across the United States, most recently as Provost at George Fox University. Dr. Scott calls communities to renewed attentiveness to God's forming work—inviting students, faculty, and staff to reflect on calling, courage, and the slow, faithful shaping of lives oriented toward love of God and neighbor. Her visit is funded by an endowment from the Thomas F. Staley Foundation.

What does it actually mean to live by the Spirit — and not by the flesh?Alicia Wilson's life has been marked by moments she cannot explain apart from God. From growing up in poverty in Jamaica to becoming captain of the Jamaican National Team, Alicia believed God was guiding her long before she understood why. But it wasn't until a series of profound encounters — including a powerful experience with the Holy Spirit, a vision that brought Scripture to life, and a battle with cancer that reshaped how she understood identity, fear, and even death — that she began to understand what it means to live as spirit, not defined by temporary or carnal things.In this conversation, Alicia shares what she believes God showed her about being united with Him, learning to hear His voice, and living from a place of spiritual freedom rather than fear. Her story isn't about chasing experiences — it's about discovering what Scripture means when it says that God is Spirit, and how life changes when a person begins to live from that reality.------------------------✟ Donate to A Stronger Faith here ⇨ https://www.astrongerfaith.org/give--------------------------✟ Recommend a guest for us here ⇨ https://www.astrongerfaith.org/contact--------------------------✟ CONNECT WITH US! ⇨ Website: https://www.astrongerfaith.org/ ⇨ YouTube: https://bit.ly/asfmyoutube ⇨ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/astrongerfaith/ ⇨ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@astrongerfaith ⇨ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/astrongerfaith------------------------✟ If you need prayer or deliverance, or if you would like to join us as a prayer partner, please visit our prayer resources page at https://www.astrongerfaith.org/prayer.✟ If you are looking for a good faith-building book, visit our recommended books page at https://www.astrongerfaith.org/books.

Hear the second edition of a new segment titled “40 Indiana guitar pioneers that every Hoosier should know.” Over the next year, we'll be sharing the music and history of Indiana guitarists who made notable contributions to music. Some of these musicians are world-famous; some you may not have heard of. This is not a ranked list, and it won't be presented in any particular order. On this edition, learn about the Gary, Indiana guitarist Donald Kinsey, who played with artists including Bob Marley, Albert King and Peter Tosh. Donald Kinsey was born May 12, 1953, in Gary. He was one of three sons of Lester “Big Daddy” Kinsey, a respected Chicago blues guitarist, singer, and harmonica player who migrated from Mississippi to Gary in the mid-20th century. Music was part of Donald's life from an early age. He began playing guitar at five years old, learning chords from his father and performing in church and at local gigs. By his early teens, he had earned the nickname “B.B. King Jr.” In 1972, Donald's professional career took a major leap when he was recruited to play with Albert King, one of the most influential blues guitarists of all time. Kinsey toured extensively with King, appearing at major festivals including Wattstax and the Montreux Jazz Festival. He also recorded several albums with King, including I Wanna Get Funky and Blues at Sunrise. This was a formative period that helped Kinsey refine his technique and stage presence while reaching audiences beyond the Midwest club circuit. In the mid-1970s, Kinsey left the Albert King band to join the psychedelic rock group White Lightnin'. The band's self-titled debut album was released by Island Records in 1975. Kinsey's connection to Island Records would prove significant. The label was co-founded in Jamaica by Chris Blackwell in 1959, and Blackwell introduced Kinsey to a rising young star on the label: Bob Marley. Kinsey's career soon took an unexpected turn toward reggae. From 1975 to 1976 he toured with Bob Marley and the Wailers, appearing on Marley's classic 1976 album Rastaman Vibration and numerous live recordings. Kinsey also worked extensively with Peter Tosh, contributing to several landmark albums including Legalize It, Equal Rights, Bush Doctor, and Mama Africa. He also recorded with Burning Spear, playing guitar on the albums Dry & Heavy and Marcus' Children. Kinsey was with Marley during one of the most harrowing moments in reggae history—the attempted assassination of Marley in Kingston in December 1976, when gunmen opened fire at Marley's home. After Marley's death in 1981, Kinsey recorded a tribute titled “Song for Bob.” In 1984, Kinsey reunited with his brothers Ralph and Kenneth and their father Lester to form The Kinsey Report, a band blending electric blues, rock, and roots music. The group recorded a series of albums beginning with Edge of the City in 1987 and became known for its powerful live performances, earning critical acclaim on the blues circuit and touring across the United States and internationally. Kinsey remained active into the 2020s, performing with both the Kinsey Report and the Wailers band. Donald Kinsey died February 6, 2024, in Merrillville at age 70, just weeks after the death of his older brother Ralph.

Történetünk a Zorg nevű rabszolgahajó fedélzetén játszódik. A hajó Afrika partjaitól indult el Jamaica irányába; a gyomrában több száz, szerencsétlen sorsú rabszolga zsúfolódott össze. Már hosszú ideje úton voltak, amikor egy váratlan fordulat miatt a hajó vezetői kegyetlen döntést hoztak: megszabadulnak a rabszolgák egy részétől. Több mint száz embert a vízbe vetettek… A hajó tulajdonosa csak az anyagi kárt látta meg a tragédiában, és kártérítést követelt a biztosítójától. Az ügy a bíróságon kötött ki, és végül túlmutatott önmagán: az egész brit rabszolga-kereskedelemre kihatott.  Források: Siddharth Kara: The Zorg című könyve Lévai Csaba: Förtelmes kereskedelem című könyve Interjú Siddharth Kara: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pr3hzesLjiM&t=68s .

I always keep a copy in my pocket, and I share it with people who are curious about our standards. It has been updated and refreshed to better cope with the challenges and temptations of our day. The new version of For the Strength of Youth is available online in 50 different languages and will also be available in print. It will be a significant help for making choices in your life. Please embrace it as your own and share it with your friends. This new version of For the Strength of Youth is subtitled A Guide for Making Choices. To be very clear, the best guide you can possibly have for making choices is Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the strength of youth. So the purpose of For the Strength of Youth is to point you to Him. It teaches you eternal truths of His restored gospel—truths about who you are, who He is, and what you can accomplish with His strength. It teaches you how to make righteous choices based on those eternal truths.13 It's also important to know what For the Strength of Youth does not do. It doesn't make decisions for you. It doesn't give you a “yes” or “no” about every choice you might ever face. For the Strength of Youth focuses on the foundation for your choices. It focuses on values, principles, and doctrine instead of every specific behavior. The Lord, through His prophets, has always been guiding us in that direction. He is pleading with us to “increase [our] spiritual capacity to receive revelation.”14 He is inviting us to “hear Him.”15 He is calling us to follow Him in higher and holier ways.16 And we are learning in a similar way every week in Come, Follow Me.     ACU Endorsed Charities -------------------------------------------------------- Pre-Born!

The Clash were once described by their manager as a news organization first, and entertainers second. They were, as their record label put it, “the only band that matters.” They were on the front lines at the dawn of punk rock, but were adventurous enough to quickly branch out into reggae, dub, and hip-hop. They were arrested on suspicion of terrorism in London. Chased out of Jamaica by local drug lords armed to the teeth. Caused a near riot in Times Square when their week-long takeover of a disco was shut down by the city after night one. For Joe Strummer, one of the Clash's two songwriters and the group's political avatar, all this insanity came with the territory when you were disrupting the status quo. But the weight of it all, the importance of the only band that mattered, became too much to bear, and at the height of the band's commercial success…their frontman went missing.

PLUS: How'd an innocuous Social Circle warehouse somehow improve in value by $100 million in just two years for DHS to have paid that much more for it? Prior to his visit to Rome, GA, today, Donald Trump thought it fitting to take swipes at Atlanta over his perception of the city's crime woes (his Mar A Lago hometown with a higher crime rate per capita, mind you ...) but the day actually isn't about him; not here. Instead, Ron discussed someone who didn't shirk military duty; someone who actively sought it out despite not even being an American citizen.The deportation of Godfrey Wade, a U.S. Army veteran and longtime Georgia resident sent to Jamaica after missing a court date he says he was never notified about, was the focus of much of today's show, with his attorney Tony Kozycki at Kozycki Law joining Ron. Hear why Wade missed his court date (not his fault) but also hear how this military veteran / permanent resident was blithely vilified by one DHS official - Tricia McLaughlin - who's now resigning. She similarly smeared Renee Good and Alex Pretti, too, though, so a skunk never loses her stripes. Good riddance.Oh, and it's curious - is it not - in this "DOGE-y" era, that DHS spent $128.5 million on a warehouse previously purchased for $29 million just two-ish years ago. Hard to imagine there were upgrades and/or increases in value that come to a tidy $100 million profit for the LLC that snapped it up back in December of 2021.

Rachel Scott, the founder of Diotima and the Creative Director of Proenza Schouler, put on two major shows in five days at New York Fashion Week. Her debut at Proenza Schouler was among the most anticipated shows of the week, with fellow designers like Maria Cornejo and Raul Lopez of Luar supporting from the front row.“There was a lot of my soul that I poured out in one week,” Scott told Nicole Phelps. “I'd say it's the hardest thing I've ever done.”At her Diotima show on Sunday, Scott collaborated with the estate of Wilfredo Lam, the late Cuban artist and current subject of a Museum of Modern Art retrospective. Scott has long admired Lam, and she found inspiration not only in the aesthetic beauty of his canvases but also the strong anti-imperialist statements in his work.Scott felt compelled to make her own political statement this season, given the many crises here in the U.S. and the world. “ICE out, number one,” she said. “We need to really think about what borders are. It's a statement against the repressive forces of colonialism and imperialism.”She also shared stories from her childhood growing up in Jamaica, her early fashion memories and career trajectory, and her favorite memories from her internship at Vogue.

What do infection prevention in dialysis clinics and hurricane response in the Caribbean have in common? More than you might think. This episode explores how culture, leadership, and coordination shape health outcomes, whether in a treatment chair or a disaster zone. First, Shalini Nair, a Senior Analyst of Infection Disease at ASTHO, breaks down the growing concern around dialysis-related infections and what the CDC's Making Dialysis Safer for Patients Coalition is doing to address it. She shares frontline-informed strategies that health departments and facilities can use right now: building a “see it, say it” culture of safety, using short, role-specific training and real-time coaching, and ensuring visible leadership support that reinforces infection prevention as everyone's responsibility.  Then, the focus shifts to disaster response with Maggie Nilz, Senior Analyst of preparedness at ASTHO and Team Rubicon, a veteran-led humanitarian organization. Nilz reflects on her decade of deployments, from chainsaw operations in U.S. disaster zones to coordinating international health response in Jamaica after a devastating hurricane. She explains how public health leadership, interagency coordination, and pre-disaster data systems are critical when hospitals are damaged, infrastructure is down, and communities still need everyday healthcare.

For this episode we're joined — all the way from Laurel Canyon — by the husband-and-wife tag team that is Jeff Walker and Kim Gottlieb(-Walker). Married for 53 years, Jeff and Kim have worked in diverse capacities in the music business and talk about their experiences over those five-plus decades. We start with the couple's work together on monthly freesheet Music World, focusing on their 1973 encounters with Tom Waits and Gram Parsons (plus a 15-year-old Cameron Crowe tagging along). After audio clips of both Waits and Parsons, we hear a 1987 clip of Gram's great singing partner Emmylou Harris talking to Adam Sweeting about... Gram Parsons. Interweaving tales of Jeff's life as a publicity director and Kim's career as a photographer, we hear about Island Records, Jamaica and the couple's close relationship with Bob Marley, concluding with Jeff's account of being with Bob after the chief Wailer was shot by gunmen in 1976. After Jasper offers his thoughts on Bad Bunny's ICE-breaking half-time show at the Super Bowl, Kim channels her late '60s protesting self and eloquently summarises her feelings about staying sane in Trump's dystopian America. Finally, Mark quotes from newly-added library interviews with Captain Beefheart (1979) and David Thomas (1985), while Jasper hails Joe Muggs' 2021 piece about Joel Culpepper.

Dorothy Roberts' father was a white anthropologist who studied interracial marriages and her mother was a Black woman from Jamaica. She always assumed her parents' relationship inspired her father's scholarly focus, but that changed after he died, and she found boxes of interviews he conducted with interracial couples, dating back to the 1930s, decades before he met her mother. Robert's memoir is ‘The Mixed Marriage Project.'We also hear from historian Heather McGhee. Her book, ‘The Sum of Us,' examines a question at the heart of American life: Why do so many Americans believe that progress for one group means loss for another?Also, David Bianculli talks about some TV shows he's been catching up on. Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Almost a decade after her father's death, legal scholar Dorothy Roberts had to confront the 25 boxes of his research collecting dust in her office. Roberts' parents, a white anthropologist and a Black woman from Jamaica, spent years doing research on interracial marriage and intimacy in Chicago. Her new memoir, ‘The Mixed Marriage Project,' draws from their records. She says the project permeated every corner of her upbringing, and now, as a scholar herself, she's reflecting on her life and racial identity with a new lens.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
