How much should you pay a mower, landscape laborer, applicator or crew leader? Pajak breaks down why job titles alone don't determine wages and explains how skill, responsibility, productivity, independence and your local labor market should influence compensation. Most importantly, he discusses why paying higher wages only works when your pricing and production can support them.

fWotD Episode 3426: Early Netherlandish painting Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Monday, 21 September 2026, is Early Netherlandish painting.Early Netherlandish painting is the body of work by artists active in the Burgundian and Habsburg Netherlands during the 15th- and 16th-century Northern Renaissance period, once known as the Flemish Primitives. It flourished especially in the cities of Bruges, Ghent, Mechelen, Leuven, Tournai and Brussels, all in present-day Belgium. The period begins approximately with Robert Campin and Jan van Eyck in the 1420s and lasts at least until the death of Gerard David in 1523, although many scholars extend it to the beginning of the Dutch Revolt in 1566 or 1568 – Max J. Friedländer's acclaimed surveys run through Pieter Bruegel the Elder. Early Netherlandish painting coincides with the Early and High Italian Renaissance, but the early period (until about 1500) is seen as an independent artistic evolution, separate from the Renaissance humanism that characterised developments in Italy. Beginning in the 1490s, as increasing numbers of Netherlandish and other Northern painters traveled to Italy, Renaissance ideals and painting styles were incorporated into northern painting. As a result, Early Netherlandish painters are often categorised as belonging to both the Northern Renaissance and the Late or International Gothic.The major Netherlandish painters include Campin, van Eyck, Rogier van der Weyden, Dieric Bouts, Petrus Christus, Hans Memling, Hugo van der Goes and Hieronymus Bosch. These artists made significant advances in natural representation and illusionism, and their work typically features complex iconography. Their subjects are usually religious scenes or small portraits, with narrative painting or mythological subjects being relatively rare. Landscape is often richly described but relegated as a background detail before the early 16th century. The painted works are generally in oils on panel, either as single panels or more complex portable or fixed altarpieces in the form of diptychs, triptychs or polyptychs. The period is also noted for its sculpture, tapestries, illuminated manuscripts, stained glass and carved retables.The first generations of artists were active during the height of Burgundian influence in Europe, when the Low Countries became the political and economic centre of Northern Europe, noted for its crafts and luxury goods. Assisted by the workshop system, panels and a variety of crafts were sold to foreign princes or merchants through private engagement or market stalls. A majority of the works were destroyed during waves of iconoclasm in the 16th and 17th centuries; today only a few thousand examples survive.Early northern art in general was not well regarded from the early 17th to the mid-19th century, and the painters and their works were not well documented until the mid-19th century. Art historians spent almost another century determining attributions, studying iconography, and establishing bare outlines of even the major artists' lives; attribution of some of the most significant works is still debated. Scholarship of Early Netherlandish painting was one of the main activities of 19th- and 20th-century art history, and a major focus of two of the most important art historians of the 20th century: Max J. Friedländer (From Van Eyck to Breugel and Early Netherlandish Painting) and Erwin Panofsky (Early Netherlandish Painting only covering artists up to Hieronymus Bosch who died in 1516).This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:41 UTC on Monday, 21 September 2026.For the full current version of the article, see Early Netherlandish painting on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm generative Amy.

As we hurtle into the Sixth Age of Extinctions, we face the cataclysmic loss of half the world's biological diversity. 80% of the remaining biodiversity is on Indigenous lands. Ethnobotanist and Indigenous rights advocate Mark Plotkin of the Amazon Conservation Team tells us how scientists are helping protect the people who will protect the land, and the age-old wisdom that's imperative for our future.
Andy explains that he and his wife have run and grown their landscaping business for 12 years without borrowing money, influenced by Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace University, and are now fully debt-free personally and in business. Andy discusses how he accounts for his own labor by splitting his salary between overhead and job costs and clocking in when working on-site, while most estimating, design, and project management stays in overhead; he also describes hiring a full-time designer/site layout specialist to build detailed, buildable plan sets, GPS layouts, and SOPs. He addresses whether to keep maintenance work and gives detailed work-life balance advice, including quitting Saturdays, setting clear boundaries for evening client meetings, and prioritizing family despite constant business stress.

Hello, everyone! Thanks for joining me for episode 601 of The Perceptive Photographer. Before we jump into this week's show notes, I want to take a moment to say thanks to every one who reached out with kind messages and emails during our milestone of 600 episode and to all of those of you who are listening all these years. Your support is awesome and really makes me appreciate the wonderful community around this podcast. This week’s topic is again a smash up of a few random thoughts. The first is that recently I came across an insightful essay (they all are) by Guy Tall, where he discussed the time we dedicate to viewing others' work verse the amount of time we wished people spent looking at our work. It really stuck with me and gave me pause about how our much of our attention we want on our work and how much we actually give to other photographers' images. I reached out to several photographers I know, asking them to compare the time they want others to spend looking at their work with how much time they actually invest in appreciating others' art. As usual, Guy was spot on. As I thought about it more and more, I don’t think many of us take the time to immerse ourselves in the depth of others' work. If we did, we might learn more, connect more and might even foster a little more rapid growth and inspiration in our own work. I guess what I have been thinking is that if you’re looking to make better work, spend more time looking at other’s work. Writers read, movie people watch movies, photographers should look at photographs. Once that thought ran through it picked up on a piece of wisdom my grandmother, mom and dad and other famous people often shared: “You can tell a lot about someone by the company they keep.” It got me thinking about who we spend time with photographically, and if we are I surrounding ourselves with photographers whose, conversations and critique inspires us or does it do the opposite? When I felt I wasn't around the right influences and it showed in my work. Not always easy to fix and give up those “friends”, but it might be something we have to do for our own growth. Finally that led me back to a good old topic of am I doing what I should be doing or what I am meant to do. The time spent on looking at work, the company we keep and what we should do can be good or it can be bad. If we find ourselves in a community that doesn't help us with our goals, we can wonder off true path. Staying focused on what we are meant to do and not what we should do isn’t always easy but the right support goes a long way in helping. Quick note if you are in the Seattle area and you're looking for an fun experience the weekend of November 6th – 8th (2027) I invite you to join my workshop called “Landscape as Language” at the Photographic Center Northwest in Seattle! We'll dive into how our landscape photographs are intertwined with our identities and the ways we connect to the environment around us. This master class promises to be a fantastic inquiry of how we communicate through our art, and I would love for you to be a part of it! Thank you once again for tuning in and for being such a vital part of this journey. I can't wait to jump into the mix with you all again in episode 602 next week.

Photography is supposed to be fun. But somewhere along the way, as we get better at it, acquire more gear, learn more techniques, and start expecting more from every photograph, some of that original excitement can fade.In this episode, Court explores how to bring some of that playfulness, curiosity, experimentation, and excitement back into photography. This isn't really an episode about taking technically better photographs. In fact, that's sort of the point. It's about enjoying the process, trying things without worrying whether they'll work, and occasionally giving yourself permission to make some genuinely bad photos along the way.From simplifying your camera kit and creating photo assignments to breaking your own habits, printing photographs, shooting with friends, and sometimes leaving the camera at home altogether, Court shares practical ways to reset your photographic brain and rediscover some of the excitement that probably got you hooked on photography in the first place.In This EpisodeSimplify your gear. Try heading out with one camera and one lens. Removing choices forces you to work a little harder creatively and spend less time managing equipment.Give yourself a very specific photo assignment. Photograph only shadows, reflections, textures, one color, things in motion, or subjects less than a foot off the ground.Limit yourself to one focal length. Even with a zoom lens, pick something like 35mm and don't touch the zoom ring.Pretend you're shooting film. Give yourself exactly 24 photographs, or tell a complete photo story using only five images.Make photographs you never intend to share. Take Instagram, portfolios, competitions, and other people's opinions completely out of the equation.Break your normal photographic habits. Photograph wildlife wide, landscapes with a telephoto, moving subjects at slow shutter speeds, or scenes at apertures you'd normally avoid.Learn one small new technique. Try focus stacking, panoramas, intentional camera movement, exposure bracketing, astrophotography, macro, or black-and-white photography.Try a completely different genre. Wildlife photographers can photograph architecture. Landscape photographers can try street photography. Travel photographers can spend an hour chasing insects and wildflowers.Stop waiting for perfect conditions. Instead of asking whether the light or weather is "good," ask what kind of photography those conditions make possible.Spend more time with fewer subjects. Pick one tree, flower, bird, landscape, or street corner and photograph it for 15 or 20 minutes. The interesting photographs often start after you've exhausted the obvious ones.Observe wildlife instead of simply collecting photographs of it. Once you've "got the shot," keep watching. Behavior, light, composition, and interactions can change quickly.Print your photographs. Even a simple 4x6, 5x7, or small collection of prints can completely change your relationship with an image.Photograph with other people. Seeing what catches another photographer's eye can reveal compositions and ideas you would have walked right past.Occasionally leave the camera at home. Experience a hike, sunset, wildlife sighting, or beautiful place without constantly evaluating it as a photograph.Remember why you started. Photography becomes a lot more interesting when you start asking "What if?" again.Mentioned in the EpisodeCourt Whelan on YouTubeSearch "Court Whelan Photography" on YouTube for photography tutorials, editing videos, techniques, and photo-travel content.https://www.youtube.com/@courtwhelanFoxPrintSmall Polaroid-style photo prints and other easy ways to turn digital photographs into something physical.https://www.foxprint.com/collections/square-printsCourt's WebsitesCheck out my photo portfolio here: shop.courtwhelan.comSign up for my photo and conservation blog at www.courtwhelan.comFollow me on YouTube (@courtwhelan) for more photography tipsView my camera kit and recommended camera gearSponsors and Promo Codes:MPB.com - Buy, Sell, or Trade Camera GearArtStorefronts.com - Mention this podcast for free photo website designBayPhoto.com - 25% off your first order (code: TWP25) ArtHelper.com - a photo community to learn, share and be inspiredArthelper.Ai - Smart tools to promo and showcase your art.LensRentals.com - WildPhoto15 for 15% off

Hello listeners! This time I welcome back a returning guest, Jeremy Harte. Jeremy is an author and folklorist whose writing and research is inspired by landscape and stories of encounters with other worlds. His latest book is Treasures on Earth: Buried Wealth in Landscape and Legend. In it Jeremy examines the history and folklore in Britain of hidden treasure – stories not just of gold and silver, but of ghosts, curses and forbidden knowledge. In the interview I talk with Jeremy about the ideas behind the book and the interesting relationship between the folklore and storytelling of buried wealth and the written accounts of such discoveries. We also discuss the relationship magic and paranormal phenomenon have with the search for and finding of hidden valuables, and the social factors that have influenced the use of occult techniques in such endeavours. You can find out more about Jeremy's new book at https://reaktionbooks.co.uk/work/treasures-on-earth.

President Dallin H. Oaks, President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, has taught that the doctrine of the Church centers on the family. But marriages and birthrates are declining in places around the world — and so is dating. The National Dating Landscape Survey, published earlier this year, looked at the opportunities and challenges of dating across the United States. Researchers found that young adults want serious relationships but are experiencing a dating recession, with only about 1 in 3 young adults actively dating. Jason S. Carroll, the Family Initiative director at the Wheatley Institute at Brigham Young University and a marriage preparation teacher for 20 years, joins Church News reporter Mary Richards to talk about the patterns found in this research and what the positive outliers can teach about creating a better dating and marriage culture. The Church News Podcast is a weekly podcast that invites listeners to make a journey of connection with members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints across the globe. Hosts Jon Ryan Jensen, editor of the Church News, and Church News reporter Mary Richards share unique views of the stories, events, and people who form this international faith. With each episode, listeners are asked to embark on a journey to learn from one another and ponder, “What do I know now?” because of the experience. Produced by Rex Warner and Ellie Lewis.
Xanthe Appleyard and I are BACK ON THE MIC breaking down August's biggest cultural headlines and zeitgeist moments...PLUS, we share 2 huge announcements up top!
The year 2018 brought about several impactful events to Philmont and the Philmont landscape. One of those events was the Ute Park Fire that devastated the middle part of the Ranch, ultimately causing a closure of the 2018 summer program. Another one of those events occurred on August 18, 2018 with the retirement of tenured Philmont employees Ben and Marilyn Vargas. Ben's retirement in 2018 was the last of three well known, tenured Livestock Department employees for Philmont. Bob Ricklefs retired in April 2016, Rod Taylor retired on September 30, 2017, and Ben in August 2018. Chuck Enloe was elevated to Foreman later to replace Ben's leadership in the Livestock Department.Many Wranglers attended Ben and Marilyn's retirement in August 2018. Immediately following their retirement reception at Camping HQ, the idea of a Wrangler reunion was born. The initial three Wrangler alumni to start the planning of the proposed Reunion was Dr. John Alexander, Rusty Lowe, and Brandon Manning. Thomas Bush and Sarah Warren soon joined the newly formed Reunion team. Gene Zwillenberg committed later in the planning process to help on the Reunion premise.Two locations were mainly discussed on August 19, 2018 between John, Rusty, and Brandon for a Reunion. The first was Red River, NM, at their Convention Center. Rusty then presented the idea of the AQHA complex in Amarillo, TX. John called AQHA the following Monday, August 20, booked the Reunion on October 6, 2018, at the AQHA venue, and the expedited event planning process began. 48 days later, the Wrangler Reunion Amarillo 2018 was held in the AQHA Museum, Amarillo, TX. Per Bob Ricklefs, “The whole event was above and beyond great.” Per Ben Vargas, “I don't have the words to say how much I appreciate the time and effort you guys put in to make the reunion and party such a huge success.”The Wrangler Reunion Amarillo 2018 Team: John & Misty Alexander, Rusty Lowe & Renee Harvey, Brandon & Betty Manning, Thomas & Lauren Bush, Sarah & Eric Warren, and Gene & Lisa Zwillenberg.Special credits for the following:Digital Editing: Kerry West, Rosewood Studios, Tyler, TX (many hours on this project!)Sound: Bryan White, Amarillo, TXLive Video of Rod Taylor, La Veta, Colorado: Deb LathropVideo/Audio of 4 Honoree Interviews: Dominic Baima, Philmont Scout RanchPermission for Philmont Brands, Landscape for Interviews: Kevin Dowling, GM (retired) of Philmont Scout RanchPrograms for Reunion: Pat Freden, Tyler, TX (1984 Philmont Camper)Photography: Alysia Wilson, Tyler, TXMusic Performance: Tish Hinojosa (www.mundotish.com)Musicians with Tish: Chip Dolan and Troy WellsCell Phone Conversations (with mountain reception): John Alexander with Lee “Bear” Hadaway, Rod Taylor, and Tish HinojosaCopyrighted by: Cielo Azul Entertainment, Bullard, TX.Support the show

Steve Blough of Infios talks about 2026 peak season - the state of the market, from challenges to rates; the capacity crunch; & the role of AI and new tech. IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS: [02.33] Steve's career background, his key areas of focus in supply chain, and the challenges he currently hears from shippers and carriers. "Capacity is tight, rates are high, and shippers are taking a hard look at how they're moving freight." [06.41] The state of the market in 2026 and why capacity is a big challenge. "Capacity has contracted so much faster than anyone thought it would… So, when you look at the market, it's a demand story not a supply story." [08.41] What rates look like now, and where Steve expects them to go through the remainder of 2026. "Spot rates are climbing and as they climb… some of the carriers guaranteed capacity has evaporated." [13.49] 2026 peak season and why it's arriving earlier than usual, from tariff fear to changes on the Panama Canal. [16.47] How current challenges and technologies are changing the way shippers operate, communicate, and seek out partners. "That communication backbone, and the need to get data back and forth quickly, has become critical." [18.37] Why the capacity crunch is a network problem, not a rate problem, and an example of an Infios client leveraging the capacity in their network to move more goods at lower rates. "Everyone can win by looking broadly." [21.09] Why good data and communication between systems are critical. "As systems and solutions have got more modern, APIs have made those communications much easier.. So one of the things that excites me most about AI is the ability to improve data." [23.04] What network-level decision-making actually looks like in practice, compared to the lane-by-lane process most teams are still running. "It's not just looking at something and going: "I should put that in a truck." It's: "Should I do intermodal, truckload, parcel, zone-skipping… With all the different modes, what's the right thing to look at with the freight I have now?" [25.43] Consolidation, and the capacity hiding inside a shipper's own network that most companies aren't using. [28.42] Whether tighter capacity creates more business risk. [30.36] What AI can actually do for a shipper during peak season, and technology's role looking ahead. [34.28] How much autonomy we should give AI as organizations look to manage effective automation, risk, cost and people. [35.36] An overview of Infios, and what it means to deliver Intelligent Supply Chain Execution. [38.06] What shippers should focus on between now and the holiday peak.

What can we learn from our landscape? How can Geomythography help us understand our cultural heritage? What is Geomythography? Geomythography is the interpretation of prehistoric and later societies at specific locales through a combination of oral tradition, place-names, landscape analysis and archaeology. The process is a means of finding new perspectives and interpretations to further the understanding of early and extant cultures, the continuities between them and investigating oral traditions that initially arose in pre-Christian myth, much of it concerning a Mother Goddess. In Scotland's Geomythography (Luath Press, 2025), Stuart McHardy unveils the intricate ties between Scotland's landscapes and the rich tapestry of its pre-Christian and later traditions. Geomythography is a vital lens through which to understand the enduring relationship between the land and its people. The book invites readers to discover how communities have thrived within the land of Scotland, fostering a deep-rooted cultural connection. McHardy argues that respect for our ancestors and the knowledge they imparted shape not only individual identity but also communal responsibility towards future generations. This book is an essential read for history enthusiasts, those interested in myth and folklore and anyone interested in finding out more about Scotland's Geomythography. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Welcome to the NeurologyLive® Mind Moments® podcast. Tune in to hear leaders in neurology sound off on topics that impact your clinical practice.In this Mind Moments episode, Aaron Zelikovich, MD, a neuromuscular physician at Lenox Hill Hospital, part of Northwell Health, joins the podcast to discuss the emerging conversation around dual therapy in spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). As disease-modifying treatments continue to reshape survival and long-term outcomes, Zelikovich examines whether combining SMN-targeted approaches could provide additional benefit, while emphasizing that evidence supporting dual therapy remains limited and significant barriers to studying it persist. The conversation explores clinician and patient interest in combination treatment, insurance and access challenges, and what current evidence suggests about adding therapy after gene replacement, particularly in children who are not meeting expected motor milestones. Zelikovich also discusses the need for better biomarkers to guide treatment decisions, the changing natural history of adult SMA, and why stronger real-world data and prospective research will be critical to determining whether dual therapy ultimately has a place in SMA care.

We are ‘Keeping it Green’ with Bob Bertog, president of Bertog Landscape Co. in Wheeling and a certified landscape professional with the National Association of Landscape Professionals, joins John Williams to answer all of your lawn and garden questions. Bob says lawns are doing great with recent rains, but make sure to keep an eye out for […]
Mitchell Roberts was sitting in a Domino's parking lot, broke and wondering how he'd make his truck payment. A few years later, his lawn and landscape company did $160,000 in a single month. But the number Mitchell cares about now isn't revenue. It's how long the business can run without him.Mitchell started mowing lawns when he was nine and kept the business alive while working on power lines. When his only mowing employee quit in 2021, he had to decide whether to keep one foot in each world or bet on No Mow Worries Lawn Care & Landscape.Today, the company is doing seven figures with multiple crews—but Mitchell's biggest lessons aren't about buying more equipment or chasing more work.He breaks down the systems that helped him get off the jobsite, why he's become more careful about hiring, and his simple “peanut butter and jelly” method for teaching SOPs so employees actually understand what “done right” looks like.Takeaways:✅ Make SOPs simple enough to use — Mitchell trains his crew using a “peanut butter and jelly” approach: break the job down step by step, physically walk through it, and make sure everyone understands the same standard.✅ Hire for what you can't easily teach — Landscaping experience isn't always Mitchell's first priority. He looks for people who can handle chaos, solve problems, work hard, and take ownership instead of making excuses.✅ Your problems grow with the company — The problem can quickly change from “How do I find enough work?” to “How do we possibly get all this work done?” Growth doesn't eliminate problems. It requires better systems to handle them.✅ Develop people outside the jobsite — During 90-day reviews, Mitchell asks employees about personal goals like buying a house, then helps them figure out actual steps to get there.✅ Freedom is becoming the real test — Mitchell's next milestone isn't just another revenue number. He wants to take a two-week vacation without constantly calling back, checking on jobs, or putting out fires.Why It Matters:If you're trying to grow a lawn care, landscaping, excavation, or other service business, Mitchell shows why adding revenue and crews only works when you're also building the people and systems that can eventually replace you in the day-to-day.Links:➡️ Connect with Mitchell on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/mitchell.roberts.9699/➡️ Visit No Mow Worries website: https://nomowworrieslawn.com/➡️ Get Ryan's book “Outta The Weeds” on Amazon: https://a.co/d/0bDS7Bap➡️ Shop Attachments — Skid Steer Nation: https://skidsteernation.com/➡️ Create estimates, track jobs, and stay organized with Tulboxx: https://www.tulboxx.com/➡️ Grow your business — Throttled Up Marketing: https://www.throttledupmarketing.com
