So, the big question, what really defines beauty? Can it be already something that exists within the landscape? Or something seen from the human eye? In this episode we compare the meanings of the French pittoresque and the Italian pittoresco, Lake George and Nathaniel Willis's description of the meaning of picturesque, and how landscape artists influenced the way humans perceive art. During this discussion we discovered the imagination and philosophy in which art has shaped our ideas of natural beauty. Tune in on our podcast in discussing as we uncover the different influential factors in the way we experience beauty in the world!
In this episode, we explore the idea of the Picturesque through the case study of Lake George and the writings of Nathaniel Willis. Our discussion examines whether beauty exists within nature itself or is created through the imagination and interpretation of the viewer. We also explore the influence of landscape artists, the meaning of the terms pittoresque and pittoresco, and the role of culture in shaping aesthetic experiences. Join us as we debate how people define beauty and why certain landscapes continue to inspire artists, writers, and travelers.Positive And Inspiring by codemusic
The main subject of today's discussion is the legacy of both Nathaniel Willis and Lake George, a very popular landscape for both writers and painters in the 19th century. Also, we shall define the “picturesque” and its influence on the perception of nature and landscape painting in America, France and Italy. We will discover how literary people, painters and tourists created a kind of symbolical place with artistic and cultural values. We will also discuss the debates of the period concerning the beauty and picturesque scenery of the region. Join our conversation where we explain one of the most legendary landscapes in history, and all the facts that follows its influence.
In this episode, Sebastian and Angie investigate the reasons behind Nathaniel Parker Willis's descriptions of Lake George. Utilizing the concepts of picturesque theory, the works of landscape artists from America, France, and Italy, and philosophical ideas regarding objective and subjective beauty, the two discuss whether the beauty of nature belongs to the landscape itself or if its in the eye of the observer. Throughout this episode, listeners learn how different influences like writers, paintings, prints, tourism, culture, and the consideration of the natural world all influence human perception of scenery. Overall, the episode concludes that their is both objectivity and subjectivity in the appreciation of beauty.
Thistle Resources Inc. CEO Patrick Cruikshank joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the start of the company's 2026 antimony trenching program at its flagship Brunswick Antimony Project in New Brunswick's renowned Bathurst Mining Camp. The trenching campaign is focused on exposing the granite-sediment contact, the geological boundary that hosts the project's antimony mineralization. Excavation has been completed at the initial trench by Doucet Excavation, with work targeting both the main mineralized zone and the key structural contact to better define the extent of the mineralized system. Cruickshank said 10 samples have already been collected from Trench Area #1, representing several styles of antimony mineralization, including disseminated mineralization, massive blebs, and quartz vein-hosted material. Previous work also identified extensive silicification and quartz veining associated with the mineralized zones. Once trench mapping and channel sampling are complete, the structural information will help determine the orientation of the mineralized contact and guide the placement of future drill holes, improving the efficiency of the upcoming exploration program. While the Brunswick Project shares geological similarities with the nearby Lake George antimony deposit, management believes it stands apart because of its precious metals potential. Previous certified assays returned values of up to 2.32 g/t gold and 1,300 g/t silver, highlighting the project's multi-metal opportunity alongside antimony. #proactiveinvestors #thistleressources #tsxv #trcg #MiningIssuer #Antimony #CriticalMinerals #Gold #Silver #BathurstMiningCamp #MineralExploration #MiningNews #NewBrunswickMining #ResourceDevelopment

This is a special joint episode with the Pitch, Putt & Puff Podcast, bringing both crews together for a weekend full of golf, laughs, and great stories. Florida Mike made his second trip to Troy, NY, and spent the weekend teeing it up with the Pitch, Putt & Puff Crew, playing three rounds at Frear Park. We break down the golf, the laughs, the highlights, and share some clips from our Sunday round. Of course, no trip to Troy is complete without talking food. Mike missed out on the legendary DeFazio's Pizza, but he did get to experience another local favorite, the seasonal sensation Kay's Pizza. The big question is... which one do you think would've been his favorite? We also talk about everything else Mike squeezed into his Upstate New York visit, including trips to Lake George and the Catskills, while looking back on another unforgettable golf weekend. Now the pressure is officially on! After Mike made the trip north again, it's time for RGB and Anthony to head south this winter for some Florida golf. The countdown starts now!

For nearly two and a half centuries, they were forgotten beneath the soil near Lake George, New York. No marked graves stood above them. No descendants visited to leave flowers. No stone carried their names. The men who fought for the American cause during the Revolutionary War disappeared from history as the years passed and the nation they helped create grew around them. Now, 250 years later, America has finally brought them home...

Si te paras en el lugar correcto, puede escucharse como si la onda de sonido pasara por un megáfono gigante.

In today's edition of The Update Journal… we begin with a level of anger that even the producers are a little nervous about. The Mets have lost 11 straight games, and I'd like to personally apologize to my blood pressure, my television, and Gary, Keith, and Ron for what they're about to endure. This isn't just a losing streak—it's an emotional hostage situation.Meanwhile, in a rare moment of peace and stability in New York media, Mr. G has returned to our screens… and suddenly, balance has been restored to the universe. The sun shines a little brighter, the forecasts feel trustworthy again, and for a brief moment, we all remember what happiness looks like at 10pm.And because it's 4/20, we wrap things up with a “legal-ish” celebration—because nothing says responsible broadcasting like carefully choosing your words while the producers hover over the dump button. It's festive, it's questionable, and it's probably the most relaxed we'll be all episode… which, given the Mets, is not saying much.In the headlines on #TheUpdate this Monday, one person was killed and three others including a young teen wounded in a wild New Jersey shootout that left victims sprawled in the street near a 13-year-old girl's weekend birthday party.Multiple people were injured when a bus full of students and chaperones from multiple Bronx high schools crashed near Lake George, according to authorities and reports.

We ask each other philosophical questions as to what really is art when it comes to “natural beauty”. In this episode, our group discusses the way we view art and what can potentially “count” as art.

The battlefields were not the only places that threatened death during World War I. As conflict raged on and supply lines tightened, the allied powers of France, Britain, and Italy faced a fundamental problem: keeping their soldier and civilian populations safe from starvation. Wheat at War: Allied Economic Cooperation in the Great War (Oxford UP, 2025) describes how, faced with this immense challenge, the Allies devised a multilateral institution--the Wheat Executive--to do what no state could do alone. Rosella Cappella Zielinski and Paul Poast examine the difficult considerations made by the allied powers when ceding authority to an international body that would make decisions for them. Beyond successfully managing wheat shipping and distribution, they argue, the Wheat Executive proved to have significant influence in the evolving landscape of interstate cooperation. As a case study, the Wheat Executive improves our understanding of international institutional design, the importance of commodities during wartime, economic coordination amongst wartime coalition members, and the legacies of international cooperation during the First World War. As one of the first great experiments in supranationalism, the Allies' management of wheat while at war provides lessons about the emergence of international organizations and their contours. Jobie Turner is a military historian who studies logistics in warfare. His most recent work is Feeding Victory: Innovative Logistics from Lake George to Khe Sanh, 1755-1968 which discuss the impact of technology on transportation across three centuries of warfare.

The battlefields were not the only places that threatened death during World War I. As conflict raged on and supply lines tightened, the allied powers of France, Britain, and Italy faced a fundamental problem: keeping their soldier and civilian populations safe from starvation. Wheat at War: Allied Economic Cooperation in the Great War (Oxford UP, 2025) describes how, faced with this immense challenge, the Allies devised a multilateral institution--the Wheat Executive--to do what no state could do alone. Rosella Cappella Zielinski and Paul Poast examine the difficult considerations made by the allied powers when ceding authority to an international body that would make decisions for them. Beyond successfully managing wheat shipping and distribution, they argue, the Wheat Executive proved to have significant influence in the evolving landscape of interstate cooperation.

THE YOU LAKE GEORGE....2025 Cast Music
The moment a guest opens your door, you're no longer just a real estate investor, you're running a hospitality business. In this episode, I'm sitting down with my friend Katie to talk about something a lot of hosts say they care about, but don't always know how to execute: true hospitality. Katie spent years in global PR and communications for brands like W Hotels, Ritz-Carlton, Le Méridien, and more, and now owns and operates three short-term rentals while co-hosting a fourth. She's lived on both sides of the industry, and she has a very grounded perspective on what it really means to move from "real estate investor" to "host." We talk about the moment you open your doors and how, from that point on, you are running a hospitality business, not just holding an asset. Katie shares a hotel study that found the first ten minutes of a guest's arrival sets the tone for their entire stay, and we unpack what that looks like inside an STR: clear directions, lights that actually come on, intentional amenities, and those small, thoughtful touches that make guests feel seen instead of nickel-and-dimed. We also get into bachelorette groups, kids and pets, and why welcoming every member of the family changes how people experience your space and how they talk about it later. Katie walks us through her own portfolio in Lake George, Saratoga Springs, and the Finger Lakes, and how staying in a destination as a guest shaped what she looked for as an owner. We talk about design gaps, experience gaps, and why she's now exploring boutique motels and hotels with the same heart for hospitality she brings to her STRs. If you've ever felt the tension between automation, profit, and genuinely caring for the people in your homes, this conversation will feel like a reset and a reminder of why this work matters.

In this episode, our group dives into the questions of whether Lake George's beauty belongs to the landscape itself or to the way viewers frame it in their minds. We connect Nathaniel Parker Willis' vivid 19th century description of the lake to the idea of the picturesque and how artists and writers "compose" nature. Drawing on landscape art, aesthetic theory, and our own reactions, we debate whether beauty is discovered in the environment or created through imagination. Join us as we unpack how framing, culture, and perspective shape what we see as beautiful in both nature and art. Music Clear Horizon by LR Beats
This episode, we talked about Nathanial Willis and his experience with Lake George. We went into depth speaking about beauty and how people interpret it. We dived into subjects such as objective vs. subjective and much more. We talked about how cultural differences and experiences impact our perception of beauty. We learned tons of new insight and how beauty is more complex than what we believed it to be.

A Stranger Saved a Retired NYPD Officer's Life on Christmas Eve, A Special Episode Worth Hearing. This is more than a headline. It is a true story of survival, loss, depression, and an unexpected moment of human connection that changed everything. Look for The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Dean Simpson is a retired police officer from the New York City Police Department. Years before this Christmas Eve, he was shot in the line of duty during a violent, life-and-death encounter. He survived the attack, but the shooting left him permanently disabled. What followed was a slow, painful unraveling that many first responders know too well.

Pain remained. Alcohol filled the silence. By December of 2001, Dean's life had narrowed to drinking, isolation, and attending one police funeral after another. Just three months earlier, the Twin Towers had fallen. While his fellow officers ran toward the chaos on September 11, Dean woke up late, hungover, and drowning in guilt. He still put on his uniform and reported to Ground Zero, working at “The Pile” for weeks, until he realized he wasn't helping anymore.

Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . Then came Christmas Eve. That morning, Dean put his father's revolver in one pocket and his father's worn Bible in the other. He boarded a train at Penn Station with a one-way ticket upstate. He had already decided that once he reached his destination, his life would end. He chose a secluded place so no one would have to clean up the mess, a thought that haunted him even then. While the train rolled north through snow-covered landscapes, a stranger sat down next to him. Her name was Erin. She was a chatty grandmother with a red scarf and a warm smile, exactly the kind of person Dean did not want to talk to. She spoke about the beauty of the city, the holidays, life, and love. Dean sat in silence, angry at her optimism, angry at everything. When she finally asked what he loved about New York City, his response was cold and sharp. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and other podcast platforms. “I love being left alone.” Instead of snapping back or moving seats, Erin stayed. When Dean apologized, she accepted. Slowly, gently, she drew him into conversation. She shared her own story, her late husband, her children, her grandchildren. And for the first time in a long while, Dean talked about his life. About being shot. About losing his father. About feeling useless and invisible. A Stranger Saved a Retired NYPD Officer's Life on Christmas Eve, A Special Episode When the train reached Albany, Erin handed him a small pink note. “I don't know where you're headed,” she told him, “but when you get there, read this.” They hugged, and she was gone. Dean continued on to Black Mountain, climbing toward Lake George with ice-capped water below. At the summit, he opened his father's Bible. A scrap of paper fell out, marking a verse: Corinthians 10:13. To a cop, that number meant something else entirely, police code for officer needs assistance. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. Then he read Erin's note: “Dean, life is a gift meant to be shared. Don't ever give up hope. Merry Christmas. Erin.” In that moment, something lifted. The weight inside him eased. Dean emptied the revolver and threw it into the abyss. Then he turned around and walked back down the mountain. A Stranger Saved a Retired NYPD Officer's Life on Christmas Eve.

Depending on where you live, if you've ever driven a snowy mountain road or parked your car after a winter storm, you've probably seen that familiar crust of salt left behind. It's easy to think of road salt as just another part of winter, and a simple fix for icy conditions. But that same salt, once it washes off our roads, has a far-reaching impact on the water we drink and the lakes or streams that we love.Across the Northeast and beyond, road salt has become a threat to freshwater ecosystems. It seeps into wells and disrupts aquatic life. In New York State, scientists are warning that the overuse of salt could be creating “thousands of mini-Flints,” a public health crisis unfolding one winter at a time.Today, we're joined by Dr. Brendan Wiltse, Executive Director of the Lake George Association, the nation's first lake conservation organization, founded in 1885. The LGA has been leading efforts to protect Lake George, known as the “Queen of American Lakes,” through science and community collaboration. Dr. Wiltse's decades of research in aquatic ecology and his leadership at the LGA shed light on how salt pollution, climate change, and infrastructure are interconnected, and what we can all do to protect our clean water.Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/outdoor.minimalist.book/Website: https://www.theoutdoorminimalist.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@theoutdoorminimalistBuy Me a Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/outdoorminimalistListener Survey: https://forms.gle/jd8UCN2LL3AQst976------------------Lake George Association Website: https://lakegeorgeassociation.org/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lakegeorgeassociation/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LakeGeorgeAssociationYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/LakeGeorgeAssoc
