Preaching for the Solemnity of the Assumption, Daniel Harrison offers a reflection on what is possible if we keep saying 'yes' to God: "We look in the world today and we see…What do we see? We could dwell in the uncertainty and confusion and pain and strife and the negative. Or we can take our ‘yeses' to what God is calling us to do and go into the marketplace of the world ... and be that good news."Danielle Harrison currently serves as Director of the St. Charles Lwanga Center, an apostle of the Archdiocese of St. Louis. She is also a member of the preaching team at King's House at Our Lady of Snows Center in Belleville, Illinois and is the President of Mission, Faith, Equity Consulting.

In search for better, life-giving, community where all to be whole. Episode 12 arrives, the final episode in the serial series ‘Farewell Evangelicalism‘, designed to name malformed pillars that shape evangelical/conservative Christian thought and beliefs in hopes folks in the fold will leave, and those already on the way out have the tools to find their liberation.

Martin Lew and Joe Lynch discuss beyond the tracks: the next frontier of American rail. Martin is CEO at Commtrex, a tech-enabled rail logistics provider with a team of experienced rail professionals, an extensive network of partners, and a best-in-class technology platform that simplifies the movement of freight and creates a competitive advantage.  About Martin Lew Martin Lew is the Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Commtrex, the largest tech-enabled logistics platform in North America (US, Canada, and Mexico) for shippers to directly connect with railroads, transloaders, storage facilities, lessors, rail service providers, warehouses, and industry data. Under Lew's leadership, Commtrex has been named to the Freightwaves FreightTech 100 and has established partnerships with all seven class 1 railroads. Prior to Commtrex, Mr. Lew was the Head of Global Sales and Origination for Mabanaft Coal Trading, Vice President and Head of Origination for J.P.Morgan's Coal and Environmental Markets Group, Associate for the North American Coal and Emissions Trading Desk at Bear Stearns, and CEO of Equate Systems. Mr. Lew holds a Juris Doctorate from Boston College Law School, and a Bachelor of Arts Degree with majors in Communications and Political Science from the University of Southern California. About Commtrex Commtrex simplifies the movement of freight by rail with a tech-enabled platform that connects a network of reputable railroads, transloaders, lessors, and other rail service providers across the US, Canada, and Mexico. Commtrex's data-driven approach provides the rail and transload industry with visibility and connectivity that significantly accelerates the amount of time it takes for shippers to procure the services needed to manage their freight by rail. With a community of 4,000+ active members, including over 1,900 shippers, and partnerships with all six Class I Railroads, Commtrex stands at the forefront of the industry. Discover more at www.commtrex.com. Key Takeaways: Beyond the Tracks: The Next Frontier of American Rail Rail freight industry is exploring innovations like longer trains, digitization, cleaner energy, and inland terminals to enhance efficiency and sustainability. Rail transportation is suitable for high-volume freight over long distances, typically 500-600 miles or more, with a minimum volume equivalent to four to eight truckloads. Railroads move freight in two primary components: intermodal (containers on flatcars) and carload/merchandise commodities. Rail transportation enables efficient, low-carbon freight movement, reducing emissions by 75% compared to trucking. Trucking goods by rail instead of road has sustainability advantages and helps address the shortage of long-haul truck drivers. Commtrex is a platform connecting rail shippers with service providers across the US, Canada, and Mexico, providing visibility and facilitating communication. Short-line railroads transport freight from Class 1 railroads to the final destination, often using transloading facilities for last-mile delivery. The freight visibility platform Commtrex assists shippers in locating facilities and services required for rail transportation. Rail freight provides cost savings, sustainability benefits, and supply chain diversification/flexibility for shippers moving commodities or bulk goods. Commtrex connect shippers, logistics providers, railroads, facilitating rail freight growth to support nearshoring and environmental goals.

In “U.S. Maritime Modernization: Policy Driven Changes in Ocean Shipping”, Joe Lynch and Lauren M. Beagen, the Founder of Squall Strategies and The Maritime Professor, discuss how recent U.S. policies, like OSRA 2022 and strategic efforts to move supply chains from China, are significantly reshaping the ocean shipping industry.

Key Takeaways: U.S. Maritime Modernization: Policy Driven Changes in Ocean Shipping In “U.S. Maritime Modernization: Policy Driven Changes in Ocean Shipping”, Joe Lynch and Lauren M. Beagen, the Founder of Squall Strategies and The Maritime Professor, discuss the following:  OSRA 2022: Better Rules for Shippers: The Ocean Shipping Reform Act of 2022 gave the Federal Maritime Commission (FMC) more power to stop unfair charges from ocean carriers, especially for detention and demurrage. It's all about protecting shippers and making things fairer. "Decoupling" from China? It's Complicated: The idea of moving away from China for manufacturing isn't a simple "breakup." It's more about smart diversification, spreading out where we get things to lower risks, rather than cutting ties completely. Bringing Production Closer to Home: There's a big push to move manufacturing back to the US or to friendly countries nearby. This means building new factories, finding workers, and using government help to create stronger, more local supply chains. Maritime Law: The Unsung Hero: Don't underestimate maritime law! The rules for shipping by sea are super important for how goods move around the world. They keep things fair and stable in global trade. FMC's Growing Role in Today's Market: The FMC isn't just about old rules anymore. It's actively watching and reacting to supply chain problems, making sure US interests are protected and competition stays fair in ocean shipping. Diversify, Don't Just Ditch: Instead of pulling out of existing supply chains entirely, companies are focusing on diversifying. This means finding multiple places to source from, making supply networks more resilient against unexpected issues.

All shareholders deserve the same access to the same information. [ . . .] and for us to not respond to ISS is not good governance. In the 8K filing, for my departure, it would not be accurate to say I have no disagreements with the board. Unfortunately I have been continually disappointed with the level of governance process.

What would happen if you woke up tomorrow fundamentally believing in your worthiness, regardless of your accomplishments? This question lies at the heart of our conversation with transformational leadership coach Toya Gavin, whose journey from burnt-out prosecutor to authentic coach reveals profound lessons about reclaiming our true selves.Toya shares the vulnerable moment when she publicly admitted her burnout and depression to thousands of fellow attorneys, expecting little response. Instead, she received an outpour from others suffering silently with similar struggles. This act of courage not only launched her coaching practice but demonstrated the transformative power of vulnerability.At the core of Toya's philosophy is "Woke Up Worthy", the revolutionary idea that our worth isn't tied to achievements or others' approval. This perspective offers liberation especially for women and people of color who often feel they must be perfect and never falter. As Toya explains, "We're expected to be these perfect things where nothing goes wrong and we never make mistakes...but for women and people of color, we don't get the room to try and see what we can create."Guest Bio:Toya Gavin is an attorney, coach, and founder of Woke Up Worthy. At Woke Up Worthy, Toya helps women of color stop chasing degrees so they can start going after the life they want. Toya is an ICF-certified coach and holds a Juris Doctorate from the George Washington University Law School and a Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering from Rutgers University.

Mere days aways from Election Day 2024, Parvez and Omar are rejoined by Civil Rights Attorney and Activist Zahra Billoo to discuss the Muslim vote and the 2024 Presidential Election. Are Muslims simply approaching who to vote for with the "lesser of two evils" calculus? Is there a long game and what are the short term consequences of playing the long game? All this and more for the show's special Election 2024 episode!     About Zahra Billoo Zahra Billoo serves as the Executive Director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, San Francisco Bay Area (CAIR-SFBA) office, the oldest CAIR chapter office. Since joining in 2009, Zahra has led the organization through a period of six-fold growth. Today, she manages one of the largest CAIR offices in the country with a team of civil rights and social justice advocates dedicated to the empowerment of American Muslims through legal services, legislative advocacy, and community organizing. Under Zahra's leadership, CAIR-SFBA has filed lawsuits against the United States Department of Justice, Abercrombie & Fitch, and Southwest Airlines, representing American Muslims facing discriminatory treatment. CAIR-SFBA has also significantly expanded its capabilities to provide know-your-rights sessions on a nearly weekly basis to mosques and community members in the San Francisco Bay Area, while also providing direct legal representation to Bay Area residents facing numerous civil rights violations, including FBI interviews, employment discrimination, airport harassment, school bullying, and hate crimes. Zahra's advocacy has included media appearances in local and national media, including MSNBC, NPR, the San Francisco Chronicle, and even FOX News. Among her awards, she received the 2017 Human Rights Award from the Society of American Law Teachers and the 2018 Community Builder Award from People Acting in Community Together (PACT).

On Today's Episode – Mark starts us out with a quick intro of today's guest.  We then answer a listener's question – this guy is talking to his neighbor and was asking BFT about how to better communicate to this neighbor.  We talk about how the media is so left wing, the numbers are not even close.  We look back and reconsider election fraud in 2020, and how cases of votes were brought in at 3 in the morning. We hop over to Stefan's article and move into talking all things DEI.  Tune in for all the fun https://nationalcenter.org/ @stefanpadfield FEP Director Stefan Padfield says, "There hasn't been a more significant ‘brand' for centralizing power in the managerial elite since the New York Times praised Joseph Stalin's five-year plans.” See here what Padfield is referring to: https://dcjournal.com/woke-inc-and-esg/ Stefan Padfield is the Director of the National Center's Free Enterprise Project (FEP), which is the original and premier opponent of the woke takeover of American corporate life. FEP files shareholder resolutions, engages corporate CEOs and board members, submits public comments, engages state and federal leaders, crafts legislation, files lawsuits and directs media campaigns to push corporations to respect their fiduciary obligations and to stay out of political and social engineering. Prior to joining FEP, Stefan spent over 15 years teaching law at the University of Akron School of Law, publishing over 15 law review articles and a book chapter. He co-authored a two-volume mini-treatise on the history of economic thought and contributed to the Business Law Prof Blog.

#STSNation, Welcome to another episode of Surviving The Survivor, the podcast that brings you the #BestGuests in all of True Crime… Last week, a chaotic day unfolded in court as multiple technical issues delayed the latest hearing in the case of Sarah Boone, who is accused of zipping her boyfriend into a suitcase and leaving him to die. Boone remained silent in the courtroom while the judge attempted to address trial case management issues with the state and her new attorney, James Owens. However, Owens encountered several difficulties with the video call, leading to a confusing exchange. "Judge?" Owens repeatedly asked, prompting the judge, Kraynick, to respond, "Yes sir, we can hear you." Boone's trial is set to begin on October 7. #BestGuests: The law office of Jessica Mishali, P.A. in Boca Raton Florida, representing client all over south Florida started my own practice after about a decade of representing the indigent, and took over a family practice from former state representative Stephen J Press in 2018. I've successfully handled many high profile cases, most recently Marcia Thompson, a not guilty verdict last month on a first degree murder case. I've been commenting on court TV regularly ever since. I handle all criminal and Family law cases but My niche is where family law and criminal Law meet: domestic violence, self defense, injunctions, etc. (grew up in Miami, FIU, Touro law in NY) Mark NeJame received both his Bachelor's Degree and his Juris Doctorate from the University of Florida. He graduated from UF's, College of Law, in 1980. He is based primarily in Central Florida with his main office in Orlando. His firm has other satellite offices in Central Florida. He has routinely handled both state and federal cases and clients throughout Florida, having practiced in numerous counties throughout the state as well as in all of Florida's federal district courts; the Middle, Northern, and Southern U.S. Districts. In addition to Florida, he has represented clients and handled cases in many other states and districts throughout the United States and the Caribbean including Georgia, Texas, Massachusetts, California, New York, Virgin Islands, New Jersey, Michigan, North Carolina, and Virginia. As a state attorney for 15 years, Ryan managed criminal matters that included everything from high-profile murders to heart-wrenching child abuse and sex trafficking cases. This day-in and day-out experience of handling a wide variety of complex cases required him to be a quick study and exposed him to a vast network of attorneys, judges, and experts offering technical and detailed testimony. Intensive on-the-job training left Ryan with the ability to effectively navigate the complexities of the court system, while boldly representing his litigation clients on the grounds of what is fair, just, right, and good. He is admitted to the Florida Bar and the Supreme Court of Ohio. Ryan holds a B.A. Degree from the University of Central Florida (UCF). After UCF, he attended Nova Southeastern University – Shepard Broad Law Center, earning his J.D degree. He was also active in the Nova Law Review and served as the Honor Court Chief Prosecutor.  Support the show:Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/SurvivingTheSurvivorYouTube: Surviving The Survivor: #BestGuests in True Crime - YouTubeJoel's Book: Https://www.amazon.com/shop/surviving...Website: https://survivingthesurvivor.comAll Things STS: https://linktr.ee/stspodcast #SarahBoone #SuitcaseMurder #SelfDefense #Orlando #TrueCrime #TrueCrimeCommunity #JorgeTorres #JamesOwens #Boyfriend #criminaljustice #crimestory #murdermystery #murdermystery2 #justice #courtroomdrama #legal #crime #criminal #truecrimepodcast #criminal #newsupdate #trial #juryselection

On Today's Episode – Mark starts us out talking a bit about Marxism, and its history.  He then goes in to talk about Kamala Harris's father who is a self-proclaimed Marxist.  There is a real danger with having someone in power in this country who is a full-fledged Marxist. We are introduced to our guest Kathleen Wells, who tells us a little about her past, and what she's done.  Kathleen goes into talking about how the left has lied constantly to Black America.  We delve into how the Lefts insane immigration policy is affecting the Black Community more than the rest. We cover a load of topics, and Wow, what a great guest, tune in for an exciting show.   https://www.protectblackworkers.org/  @kathleenTNTR   Kathleen Wells, a native of Los Angeles, is the ex-host of the talk radio program “The Naked Truth Report.” Since 2011, she has hosted the program – currently heard on AM870 “The Answer” (WRLA-Los Angeles). She earned a Juris Doctorate from the University of California, Berkeley, School of Law (formerly Boalt Hall), and a Bachelor of Arts degree in political science from the University of California, Los Angeles. When Kathleen began her talk radio career, she considered herself a left-leaning progressive. She had previously written for partisan publications such as The Huffington Post, AlterNet, Truthout and Counterpunch. Today, she is a conservative and remains a proud supporter of former President Donald Trump. She has come to believe that the policies advocated by liberals on issues including immigration, welfare, trade and education are destroying black America. She is perplexed that black politicians, preachers and educators don't grasp these most basic and fundamental truths.
