Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for September 4, 2026 is: apiary • AY-pee-air-ee • noun Apiary refers to a place where bees are kept, and especially a collection of hives or colonies of bees kept for their honey. // One of the best parts of having a beekeeper for a sister-in-law is getting fresh jars of local honey from the family apiary. See the entry > Examples: “The 70-year-old retiree from South Philadelphia ordinarily would avoid bees out of fear, but this spring she suited up for a study on therapeutic beekeeping at the Half Mad Honey apiary in the Navy Yard. Led by Temple University occupational therapy student Meghan Robertson, the project tested if beekeeping could improve mental health and well-being in older adults.” — Kayla Yup, The Philadelphia Inquirer, 28 June 2026 Did you know? For those who enjoy honey and the fascinating creatures that make it, apiaries are the bee's knees. The word apiary—which comes ultimately from the Latin word apis, meaning “bee”—can refer to any place where bees are kept, but is used especially for a collection of hives or colonies of bees kept for their honey. Honeybee colonies are highly complex clusters of individuals that function virtually as single organisms (as by a hive mind). Queen bees, capable of laying more than a thousand eggs per day, develop from larvae that are fed solely on royal jelly. Drones are stingless male bees whose one job (they do not gather nectar or pollen) is to mate with the queen. Drones are vastly outnumbered by tens of thousands of female worker bees who do everything else—from foraging and feeding (royal jelly is produced from their pharyngeal glands) to cleaning and defense. In other words, they run the hive.

A sequence to speak to heart, head and soul, exploring through songs and readings the great classical music of our religious heritage. Led by Revd Dr Sam Wells Directed by Jennifer Sterling Performed by St Martin's Voices The cloths of heaven – Esther Bersweden (W.B. Yeats) Hymn: King of glory, King of peace (Gwalchmai) The Tyger – René Clausen (William Blake) I would live in your love – Nils Greenhow (Sara Teasdale) Love bade me welcome – Judith Weir (George Herbert) Here, home – Lucy Walker (Andrew Motion) Hymn: Lead, kindly light (Alberta) Sure on this shining night – Morton Lauridsen (James Agee)

Michael Martin and I discuss how commercial directors can stand out by developing a distinct point of view, taking creative risks, and making work that reflects their voice. Michael shares the story behind his handmade Starbucks director's cut, while both directors explore pitching, career setbacks, ego, humility, and the value of enjoying the creative process. Together, they offer practical perspective for filmmakers navigating competition, building new creative lanes, and staying committed to the journey.

VJ Day (Victory over Japan Day) marks the surrender of Imperial Japan and the end of World War II. It is observed on August 14/15 or September 2, 1945. August 14, 1945: President Harry S. Truman announced Japan's surrender to the United States, sparking massive public celebrations. August 15, 1945: The date the news reached the UK, Canada, and other Allied nations, which officially commemorate the event on this day. September 2, 1945: The formal signing of the surrender documents took place aboard the USS Missouri in Tokyo Bay, marking the official end of the war. Brought a final close to six years of global conflict following the surrender of Germany three months prior. Led to widespread joy, relief, and large street gatherings in major cities like New York, London, and Toronto. E531.

Hey, Heal Squad! One of our favorites is back…The Beauty Shaman Shelly Marshall! And trust me you'll want to send this episode to every friend who feels like they've tried everything for their skin and nothing's really working! Today we get into why your wrinkles might have way less to do with collagen than you think, why one muscle in your neck could be the real reason behind your jowls, your forehead lines, and even the puffiness under your eyes, and why the lymphatic drainage technique you've probably seen online might actually be pushing everything in the wrong direction. Shelly breaks down what's really happening when your skin starts to look "stuck" to your face, why facial massage does not cause wrinkles (it's actually the opposite), and how a few minutes of stretching your neck and moving your ears can bring swelling down fast. We also talk about red light therapy, why she thinks it's game-changing for the lips, and what she looks for in a real facial versus one that's just surface-level. This is one of those conversations that makes you rethink everything you thought you knew about aging. Hope you enjoy it, and don't forget Shelly's will be with us IN-PERSON at our Heal Retreat in October (tickets are below!) and she's got a discount code for us too on all of her signature tools (code is below too!). Enjoy!  HEALERS & HEAL LINERS Your wrinkles aren't a collagen problem, they're a fascia problem: Shelly's says that the beauty industry chases collagen with creams and injections while the actual cause… tight, restricted fascia from muscular tension… goes untouched. Your neck is the reason your whole face is aging: Almost nobody thinks about their neck when they think about their face. Shelly ties jowling, forehead lines, and even under-eye puffiness back to tension in one muscle… the sternocleidomastoid aka SCM… which means the fix isn't another serum, it's releasing that one area. Lips can get fuller from a red light, not filler: Maria has the receipts! Shelly's explanation is LED triggers a nervous system reset that relaxes the muscles pulling down on the mouth, and because lips are a mucous membrane, they respond to that relaxation and to collagen stimulation faster than regular skin does.  Join us at our Canyon Ranch 2026 Retreat: https://www.canyonranch.com/lenox/retreats/heal-retreat-maria-menounos HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: https://stylecrew.macys.com/@mariamenounos Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/host Medjet: medjet.com GUEST RESOURCES: Shelly Marshall Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/beautyshamans/?hl=en Shelly Marshall Website:  http://www.beautyshamans.com Shelly's Skin Within Studio Offer: ⁠https://www.skinwithinstudio.com/healsquad⁠ Use code HEALSQUAD15 for 15% off Beauty Shamans products and signature facial tools.

Order Gently Tended and join the Bible study now!I had the opportunity to hear Dr. Kelly Kapic speak at a conference I was attending a couple of weeks ago. He is a professor of theological studies at Covenant College, where we were staying, and the session was titled "Have I Done Enough?" Led me down a thought bunny trail, because isn't that the question we are all asking ourselves during back-to-school season? Did we read enough hours? Did we soak in enough moments? Did I play with them enough? Have I purchased enough school supplies? I've found the weight of carrying all that is crushing and leads to self-loathing and depression rather than worship. What happens as parents when we try to be and do too much? Is being limited a sin? How do we respond internally when someone reminds us again to "savor all the moments" What about the things Christ commanded us to do? What do we do when we realize we can't be fully invested in caring for orphans, feeding all the widows, stewarding the discipleship of our kids, and going into all the world to preach and disciple? How do we wrestle with the feelings of incompetence that come when we see another parent doing something we wish we could do or wish we were good at? You can find the link to Kelly Kapic's book "⁠⁠You're Only Human" and his website.You can find Elizabeth writing helpful hints ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠on the blog⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Helping you love Jesus and disciple your kids ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠on Instagram ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Or get access to the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Additional study resources here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Original Music written and recorded by Jonathan Camenisch*affiliate links are used when appropriate.

3 Takeaways from my conversation with Deniz Kent, CEO of Prolific Machines: 1. Moonshot thinking starts with a real problem. Deniz saw conflict over resources and asked: what if cells could make everything we need? That question built a company. 2. The best technology has the lowest cost AND highest quality. When those two things align — adoption follows. Every time. 3. Assemble people smarter than you. Deniz conceived the idea. Then got out of the way and hired scientists better than himself.

In the late 1960's, a group of London teenagers emerged from the blues-rock underground to form Free, a band that would prioritize emotional weight and groove over flashy speed. Led by the soulful, hyper-masculine vocals of an 18-year-old Paul Rodgers, Free created a sound that felt massive yet remarkably sparse. This episode deconstructs the song "Mr. Big" from their 1970 breakthrough album, Fire and Water, highlighting the interplay between Paul Kossoff's legendary guitar vibrato and the melodic counter-melodies of bassist Andy Fraser.

After his wife began to notice changes in her hair too, they started to look for options.He went to visit a hair loss clinic, where they introduced him to low level light therapy. The treatments proved to be very time consuming, expensive and difficult to fit sessions into day-to-day life. They liked the idea of laser and the scientific evidence behind it, and decided to create their own laser device, a convenient, good looking baseball cap design which has 272 diodes. Laser can penetrate through the layers of the scalp, right to the hair follicle and stimulate growth, prolonging the length of the hair follicle growth cycle. Connect with Livdor:InstagramLaser Hair Growth Cap | At Home LLLT Therapy | FDA Cleared | LIVDOR Save £50 off LIVDOR laser cap with code HAIRTHERAPYUK Hair & Scalp Salon Specialist course Support the showConnect with Hair therapy:FacebookInstagramTwitterClubhouse- @Hair.TherapyHair Therapy WebsiteDonate towards the podcast Start your own podcastHair & Scalp Salon Specialist Course ~ Book now to become an expert! Laser Hair Growth Cap | At Home LLLT Therapy | FDA Cleared | LIVDOR Save £50 off LIVDOR laser cap with code HAIRTHERAPYUK

This week, we start with Lucid's recall of more than 27,000 Air sedans over a low-voltage exterior lighting issue and the software update that addresses the potential fire risk, along with a broader look at how often “park outside” warnings involve gas-powered vehicles. Hyundai is moving further into extended-range EVs, with plans that include the Santa Fe and Genesis models offering more than 600 miles of combined electric and gas range. We also look at Schneider Electric's approach to home EV charging, which uses dynamic load management as a possible alternative to an expensive electrical panel upgrade. Tesla news includes the end of its in-house vehicle wrap program, the discontinuation of Solar Roof, FSD v14 Lite development for Australia and New Zealand, and a Model 3 range improvement in Europe that comes from new wheels and tires. Tesla Semi is headed toward Europe while the new Nevada factory prepares for an upcoming event, and Cybertruck prices are going up another $5,000. We wrap up with possible additions to Tesla Theater's streaming options and a recall affecting nearly 3 million Teslas in China over emergency door-release concerns.

In this episode, I'm diving into some of the debates and personal preferences that seem to come up over and over again in the overlanding world. Does your truck need to stay clean, or is being covered in dirt part of the experience? Should all your gear have a permanent home on your rig, or is a modular setup better? And are you someone who plans and pre-stages everything ahead of a trip, or are you throwing gear in the truck at the last minute?I'll share where I land on each of these, but more importantly, talk about why I don't think there's necessarily a “right” way to do any of it.And finally, I'm tackling one of my favorite debates: overlanding vs. car camping. Does the label really matter? In my opinion, if you're getting out, exploring, camping, and having adventures with your vehicle, call it whatever you want.Let me know where you fall on these debates in the comments—I'm curious how differently everyone approaches overlanding!A huge thanks to my partners:Nitto (my Terra Grappler G3 tires are great for midwestern winters, wet weather, and all terrain use):  https://bit.ly/41EJhbQZ1 Off Road (pretty much the spot for all things Nissan):  https://www.z1offroad.comAll Dogs Offroad (amazing Nissan specific suspension options which I run on my truck):  https://www.alldogsoffroad.comICECO Fridges (the best fridges for the money, hands down-Use code ALLTHINGSOVERLANDING for 12% off your order):  https://icecofreezer.com/ALLTHINGSOVERLANDINGMoon Fab Awning (super flexible, non-permanently mounted awnings for all kinds of applications.

Home Church QuestionsRead Mark 1:14-28“The Kingdom of God is at hand.” (1:15)1. The “Kingdom of God” was at hand because the King was present. What does this truth mean for you today and tomorrow?“Immediately they left their nets and followed Him.” (1:17)2. When did you get serious about your walk with Christ? Tell the story of when you decided to accept Jesus as your Savior. Was there a different time when you decided to follow Him as His disciple?“…astonished at His teaching”; “…amazed…the demons obeyed.” (1:22,27)3. Do you find yourself more captivated and intrigued by the powerful teaching of Jesus or the powerful works of Jesus?4. What is the difference between “being amazed” and actually “following”? “Immediately the news about Him spread everywhere.” (1:28)5. Why did the news spread? What lesson can we learn from this? What steps can I take to make it real?“Be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.” (James 1:22)6. What did you learn about God in this passage? How does this affect you?7. How are you encouraged or challenged by this passage?8. How will you respond to God this week? Missions FocusUPG FOCUS: The Kalu in BangladeshThe Kalu are a Muslim people group in Bangladesh with a long history in farming and traditional oil production. They follow Sunni Islam, and many rely on folk spiritual practices for guidance and protection. Although Scripture and gospel resources are available in their language, there are no known believers there.

The world’s top tennis players will spend many hours under the lights over the next two weeks. And thanks to some changes made a couple of years ago, almost all of the light will shine down on them – not into the sky. The U.S. Open is played on 17 tournament courts and five practice courts in Queens, New York. Many of the sessions take place at night. But conventional outdoor lighting directs a lot of light into the sky, producing light pollution. To reduce the glow, the venue replaced its lighting in 2024. The new L-E-D fixtures are shaped and shielded so that almost all of their light shines down onto the courts. The change was certified as “dark-sky friendly” by DarkSky International, a group that’s been encouraging better outdoor lightning for 25 years. Cities, parks, and other places get certified by changing their lighting, and enacting policies designed to keep night skies dark. In all, the group has certified more than 270 sites around the world. And since 2019, it’s certified more than 40 sports venues, most of them in the U.S. – from Texarkana to Waukesha, Wisconsin, and from Seattle to Panama City, Florida. Light pollution does more than just ruin the view of the night sky. It can interfere with the migration of birds, sea turtles, and other animals. It wastes energy and money. And it can hurt people’s health. So reducing light pollution is a winning strategy. Script by Damond Benningfield

RI1FJ – Franz Jozef Land - The RI1FJL DXpedition team in Franz Josef Land reports a very weak internet connection, causing log uploads to be slow, fragmented, and unreliable on the first attempt. The team has settled into a work routine but is tired. Propagation has been unstable, with strong signals often fading quickly. Weather has been mostly favorable, though windy, with temperatures around freezing. All of the team are doing well and they will continue to operate for another 8-9 days. 5W – Samoa - SP5AEQ, Jacek, will begin operating as 5W0AF on September 21 from a location near Apia. The operation will cover the 10–40 meter bands using SSB only, with a possible attempt on 80 meters during the final days of his three-week stay. QSL requests should be sent via SP7DQR, and logs will be available online with uploads planned at least once per day. OQRS will also be available, with bureau and LoTW free; LoTW uploads are expected a few weeks after the trip concludes. C5 – The Gambia - C5R, Lui, says he is starting to pack his bags “slowly, slowly,” for Africa. He leaves Milan, Italy for Banjul, The Gambia, via Casablanca, Morocco, arriving in Banjul October 1, for a stay until November 4. He says F5RAV and M0NPT will join him for the CQWW SSB weekend and they plan all bands CW, SSB, FT4, FT8 and satellite, during their days there. They will also be busy doing some humanitarian work leftover from Lui's last visit, at the Wilcos School.S9 - Sao Tome and Principe- S9R, an expedition, is October 17-31, from Tamarindos. Planned is HF, various modes. The antennas are a spiderbeam, hexbeam, 40M vertical, 80-10 EFHW and 6M 5-element Yagi. Digital modes will be FT8 MSHV, multi-slot. The modes are CW, SSB, RTTY and FT8, 160-6M including 60. They will also get on the QO-100 satellite. Operation will be “split at all times.” 6W – Senegal - 6W/I2YSB and 6W/IK2HKT, with operators IV3FSG, I2PJA, IK2AQZ, I2YSB, I1FQH, IK2HKT, I1HJT and IK2CKR will be in October-November with five stations. The antennas that they plan to use are a 6M 5-element yagi, six-band hexbeams, a 30M loop, and verticals for 160, 80, 40, 60 and 30, plus a DHDL receive antenna. From Mid-October to early November: JD1BQP, Ogasawara - JD1BQP by JP1IHD, Koutarou Watanabe, will be on Chichijim October 17-November 2. He will use an end-fed half-wave wire antenna that covers 160-10M, a six-band hexbeam for 20-6M, plus a seven-element Yagi for 6M. CE0Z - Juan Fernandez Islands - CE3VTZ and XQ7IR, Moises and Felipe, are going there for 10 days or so in October. They plan 160-10M FT8, CW and SSB. It will be Alexander Selkirk Island, IOTA SA-101. They will be running on generators. VK9/X – Christmas Island - VK9XY will be a November 16–December 4, 2026 DXpedition to Christmas Island that gives young amateur radio operators real-world leadership and operating experience. Led by N4ML, Max Freedman, eight young hams from the United States, Lithuania, Japan, and Malawi will plan, build, and operate the expedition themselves, with veteran DXpeditioners W6IZT, Gregg, and W0GJ, Glenn, serving only as advisors. In partnership with YOTA and supported by a Northern California DX Foundation equipment grant, VK9XY will also allow 30–40 additional young operators worldwide to gain remote DXpedition experience through NexGenRiB2 stations. Donations help cover every team member's travel and operating expenses so cost does not keep talented young operators from participating, and donors receive a personalized Certificate of Appreciation at vk9xy2026.com. If you have questions or need information, just drop me a note at thedxmentor@gmail.com Until next week, this is Bill, AJ8B saying 73 and thanks to my XYL Karen for her love and support. I Hope to hear you in the pileups! Have a great DX week!

Signs of Life - Personal Experiences - hosted by Dr. Betty Kovacs, Janet Mayer and Kimberly Saavedra Cracking the Code of Connection: Signs, Synchronicities, and Love Beyond Loss Everyone Has A Story To Share. We Invite You To Share YOURS! Many Of Us Have Personal Experiences That Defy Mainstream Thinking. Join Us As We Explore The Types Of Experiences That People Have, What They Mean, And How We Can Integrate Them Into Our Daily Lives. Summary Technology, Timing, and a Mother's Continuing Bond The episode opens by inviting listeners to share direct personal experiences that they interpret as evidence of continuing connection with deceased loved ones. Caller Georgia describes the death of her son and says she has experienced many signs from him over the years. Her most striking story involves repeated device notifications telling her she was a few minutes away from what the phone identified as her son's home, even though his old phone service and accounts were no longer active. She says the notifications appeared on multiple devices and recurred on the 22nd of successive months, which she connected with the date of his death. Georgia also describes an LED candle that appeared to illuminate while switched off and that seemed to activate around a time she associated with August 22. The co-hosts respond by emphasizing attentiveness and by framing Georgia's experiences as meaningful to her without suggesting that grief itself disappears. A Pomeranian, a Stairway, and a Shared Experience Caller Teresa recounts losing her husband of 37 years to COVID and bringing his ashes home after the cremation process. The morning after the urn returned to the house, her daughter's Pomeranian behaved in a way that Teresa and her daughter found extraordinary. The dog stood at the bottom of the staircase, barking, bouncing, and staring toward a landing while refusing to respond to either woman. Teresa explains that the dog had shared a playful daily routine with her husband before his death, including stealing his socks while he dressed. When Teresa's daughter watched the dog and quietly suggested “Dad,” Teresa says they both understood the moment in the same way. She later explains that having her daughter witness the event kept her from dismissing it and opened her to asking for and noticing additional signs. Parking Spots, Synchronicity, and Hope Within Grief Teresa continues with a pattern of repeatedly finding unusually convenient front-row parking spaces while running errands. She initially laughed about the pattern and began telling family members about it. Later she watched a movie in which a deceased brother appeared to a living character and referred to being responsible for years of favorable parking spots, creating a synchronicity that stunned her because it mirrored her own recent experiences. Teresa stresses that these experiences do not remove the sadness of losing her husband. Instead, she says they provide hope and a sense that the relationship is not entirely gone, even though it is no longer physical. The co-hosts use her story to discuss how personal meaning can emerge through patterns that another observer might interpret differently. Paying Attention Without Living in Constant Vigilance Janet expands on a phrase she calls a “short window” for noticing experiences associated with loved ones. She does not mean people should spend every moment searching for signs, but rather that ordinary life can make subtle moments easy to miss. According to Janet, a person may be reading, meditating, watching television, or going about routine tasks when something suddenly captures attention. She encourages listeners to pause and notice what the experience means to them while also continuing to live their normal lives. Janet later describes several household objects that appeared to move unexpectedly while she was recovering from a foot and leg injury, including a massage ball, a water-bottle lid, and a massage gun. She interpreted the cluster of events as a practical reminder to hydrate, care for her body, and follow through with physical therapy. Dreams, Belief, and the Limits People Accept Betty shares a dream involving tiny pebbles that are first dismissed and then transformed, through an artist's attention, into enormous sacred standing stones. She uses the dream to describe what she sees as a tension between a culturally conditioned tendency to dismiss unusual experiences and a more receptive, imaginative way of perceiving them. She later recounts a profound vision in Peru in which she experiences herself approaching a sacred mountain, only to realize that she does not need to enter it because, in the vision, she already embodies the mountain and its wisdom. A loving voice then tells her that saying she cannot create a world has itself created a world in which she cannot create. Betty interprets the experience as a lesson about how beliefs can shape the boundaries of what people allow themselves to experience. She connects that idea with a vision her husband had after their son's death in which their son's voice said that even the horizon was not the limit. Recording Experiences and Remaining Open to Meaning Near the end, Janet recalls falling forward on a staircase years earlier and suddenly finding herself seated safely back on the top step, an event she personally interpreted as intervention from spirit. She recommends that listeners write down and date meaningful experiences because patterns may become easier to recognize over time. Betty adds a story from a friend who believed she and her son had inexplicably avoided being struck by a truck that ran a stop sign. Throughout the episode, the co-hosts repeatedly emphasize that one person's experience may not convince another person and that listeners should not assume everyone will interpret unusual events identically. They describe storytelling itself as valuable because hearing how others process grief, coincidence, synchronicity, and spiritual experience can broaden the range of possibilities people are willing to consider. The program closes with a prayer for all beings to be fulfilled, awakened, liberated, free, and at peace, followed by thanks to Georgia and Teresa for sharing their experiences.

Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) is proud to offer adaptive equipment at several state parks to help more people and their families enjoy the outdoors. In this episode of the podcast, Digital Media Specialist Forrest Czarnecki returns as a guest host to bring listeners into the field to learn more about how CPW strives to offer recreational and sporting opportunities for children and adults of all ability levels.For the Blevins family, visiting Ridgway State Park wasn't just any old summer vacation. For the family of five from South Carolina, visiting the park was going to be a once-in-a-lifetime trip facilitated by Make-A-Wish chapters in Colorado and South Carolina. As soon as CPW learned of this visit, state park staff developed a plan to make it an unforgettable experience for the Blevins family.Fred, Rebecca, Miller and Bo Blevins were incredibly gracious in allowing us to tag along and document the experience for Bo, their 12-year-old son living with a CASK gene mutation.Led by Ridgway State Park Park Naturalist Shelby Martinez, Bo and his family enjoyed an action-packed two days at the park. After starting with a big hike, with Bo riding a Trackchair, the first day ended with an afternoon of fishing at one of the park's two smaller stocked ponds below the reservoir. We even helped Bo's sister, Miller, land her first few rainbow trout.Day 2 took the family on a morning paddleboard adventure around the marina and swim beach. Loaded onto an oversized wheel-chair compatible paddleboard, Fred expertly paddled the entire family and Shelby around Mears Bay. All the while, Bo lit up and danced as he felt the breeze blow through his hair and the gentle rocking of the paddleboard.The family's trip ended with a tour of the reservoir on a state park ranger's boat. While the family enjoyed the last bit of their vacation at the park, we caught up with Park Manager John Freeborn, who knows firsthand about the healing power of nature following his lengthy recovery from a major car accident. We also chat more with Martinez and learn about her personal connection to working with families with special needs.Through it all, we learn how Colorado is at the forefront of providing adaptive equipment to help individuals and families in need of assistance, both at our state parks and beyond. This is an episode you won't want to miss.For more information on how CPW provides options to state park visitors with disabilities, check out the CPW website.

The Atlanta Braves are feeling the effects of an offensive downturn which is putting their hold on first place in the National League East in serious jeopardy with the Philadelphia Phillies surging. Grant McAuley discusses some of the troubling trends and the struggling players who could help the Atlanta lineup turn things around, none bigger than Ronald Acuña Jr. and Drake Baldwin. While the bats are in need of a jumpstart, the Braves pitching staff has been putting in work. Led by Chris Sale, the rotation is delivering, but the team hasn't been able to take full advantage. Plus, you'll hear from two more members of the 1991 Worst-To-First Braves team.

Jesus gave the disciples a word before the storm began: "Let us go over to the other side." When the wind became violent and Jesus appeared silent, fear convinced them that God no longer cared. In this message from Fearless LA, discover why the storm does not cancel what God spoke, how worry can reinterpret the evidence, and why the word must be planted deeply in your heart. God has not abandoned you in the middle. There is still a word in your boat. If this message speaks to you, share it with someone walking through a storm and tell us in the comments what you are believing God for. Fearless Church is a Los Angeles-based church built on one belief — that perfect love drives out fear. Led by Pastors Jeremy and Christy Johnson, we exist to help people live freely, find purpose, and experience the life-changing love of Jesus Christ.

Illinois football is only 10 days away from opening the 2026 season against UAB, and there are some major changes coming to the gameday experience at Gies Memorial Stadium. Illinois Athletics is implementing a new lot-specific traffic-routing system beginning approximately 3½ hours before kickoff. Fans will have designated routes based on their parking lots, with the goal of reducing congestion and getting fans into the stadium more efficiently. We also take a look at the new additions inside Gies Memorial Stadium, including the massive new video board, upgraded audio system, stadium-wide Wi-Fi, new LED lighting, enhanced concessions and new in-game hosts. The 17,000-plus-square-foot video board will be unveiled when Illinois hosts UAB on September 3. The Illini soccer team remains unbeaten after playing UIC to a 0-0 draw Sunday night at Demirjian Park. Illinois is now 1-0-2 on the season after also drawing No. 19 Georgia and defeating Cincinnati. The defense has been excellent, but the question becomes whether the Illini can generate enough offense as the schedule gets tougher. Then it's time to ask the question Bears fans are probably debating after Saturday night's 27-9 loss to Cincinnati: should anyone actually be panicking? The Bears' first-team offense struggled, Caleb Williams went just 2-for-5, the team committed 11 penalties for 81 yards, and Chicago failed to score a touchdown. That's certainly not what fans wanted to see—but it's still the preseason, and there are legitimate reasons to pump the brakes before declaring the season doomed. Finally, we unveil another Random Illini Football Player of the Day, digging into an Illini name that deserves a little more attention as the countdown to the 2026 season continues.

What if Gen Z could become one of the most influential generations for the gospel? Abby Ralph of 1630 shares why she sees tremendous spiritual potential in young adults and how Christians can help turn that passion into lifelong discipleship and leadership. You'll hear why Scripture, community, mentorship, civic engagement, and courageous faith matter in a culture filled with competing voices. Abby also shares encouraging stories from 1630 gatherings and young adults discovering that God can use them right where they are. This episode will inspire you to stop sitting on the sidelines and start investing in the next generation.About the GuestAbby Ralph serves as the Young Adult Director for 1630, the young-adult initiative of Christians Engaged, focused on equipping ages 16–30 in discipleship, leadership, biblical worldview, and civic engagement. Abby earned degrees in Political Science and History from the University of Arkansas and previously worked for the Oklahoma House of Representatives. Her passion is helping the next generation follow Jesus, understand their calling, and become leaders who influence their communities for the Kingdom of God.Reasons to ListenDisciple Gen Z — Discover practical ways parents, pastors, mentors, and everyday Christians can build authentic relationships with young adults instead of assuming discipleship requires a complicated program.Stand on Truth — Learn why Scripture, biblical literacy, Christian community, and discernment are essential for navigating social media, AI, cultural pressure, and competing worldviews.Turn Faith Into Action — Abby challenges believers to move beyond passive Christianity and recognize that God can use ordinary acts of courage, leadership, mentorship, and civic involvement for Kingdom impact.Big TakeawaysReturn to Scripture — The loudest voice in your life shouldn't be an algorithm. Regularly read Scripture so you can recognize biblical truth and evaluate the messages competing for your attention.Discipleship Can Be Simple — Mentoring someone doesn't always require a curriculum. Invite a younger believer to coffee, dinner, a game night, or simply into your everyday life and allow genuine relationships to create opportunities for spiritual growth.Choose Community — Digital connection cannot completely replace Christian fellowship. Intentionally build relationships with believers who will encourage you, challenge you, pray with you, and keep pointing you toward Christ.Courage Needs Christ — Boldness alone isn't enough. Christian courage should be directed by the Lord so believers know not only what truth to speak, but when and how to speak it with both conviction and grace.Get Off the Sidelines — Apathy convinces us that one person cannot make a difference. Instead, prayerfully identify the sphere God has given you—your family, church, workplace, school, community, or government—and faithfully begin serving there.Missional ChallengesInvite Someone In — Identify one younger Christian you can intentionally encourage this week. Invite them to coffee, a meal, or an activity and focus first on listening, building relationship, and learning where they need encouragement.Turn Down the Noise — Set aside intentional time this week to replace social-media consumption with Scripture.

In this episode, Stephan Talty, NY Times bestselling author, discusses his newest book “The American School of Spies: The Archaeologists Who Fought the Nazis and Saved the Treasures of Ancient Greece”. The book shares how the OSS used a group of unlikely spies in Greece during World War II to fight the Nazis and protect their homeland. Led by Rodney Young, the “Greek Desk” used their knowledge and connections to hide valuable artifacts and trick the Nazis with fake ones. When these efforts were no longer enough, Greek American soldiers joined the fight against the Nazis. Overall, the book shows how intelligence, courage, and teamwork helped protect both Greece and its history. Interview date Thursday, 28 May 2026. Interviewer Paul Hollingsworth PhD, former Senior CIA Officer and Analyst, President, AFIO and Co-Host James Hughes, President Emeritus, AFIO.

Ep 290 macOS Tahoe 26.7 is Full of References to Unreleased Apple Products Steve Troughton-Smith: It seems pretty clear to me, being able to test iPadOS beside macOS, that even with macOS 27 the Liquid Glass UI is never going to look as good as it does on a HDR OLED display. It looks several times glossier and more crisp when I switch my desktop monitor over to HDR (which I never use), and even better still on the iPad's OLED. This feels like a generational shift as big as the Retina Display, and I think most people are oblivious to it — since no Mac currently comes with a HDR OLED screen.

On today's show we discuss Ara's new family room TV and Audio setup and what his plans are for the future. We also read your emails and look at the week's news. News: Marantz Introduces The CINEMA Series 2 Receivers Dolby Vision 2 HDR Is Officially Arriving On Certain Hisense TVs Nearly A Third Of U.S. Homes Get TV Only Via Streaming Peacock hikes prices for fourth straight year, this time by $3 Other: Theatrium - A home Assistant or HomeKit Dashboard for your AppleTV Parts List for Ara's New Home Family Room: Mantel Mount MM815 Motorized Drop Down & Swivel TV Mount - $700 The MM815 is a remote-controlled drop-and-swivel TV mount. Press one button to lower the TV to eye level and rotate it as needed. It comes with an RF remote, is silent, and has two memory presets. Sony BRAVIA 7 II PRO True RGB 4K HDR Google TV with Gemini (Model Number K75XR70PRO)-  $2300 The Sony BRAVIA 7 II PRO is Sony's 2026 mid-range True RGB Mini-LED TV (65 inches and up) with independently driven red, green, and blue backlight LEDs, XR processing, and about 2,000 nits of peak brightness for stronger color volume and contrast than a typical white Mini-LED. It is 4K at 120 Hz, supports Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, and has HDMI 2.1 gaming features (VRR, ALLM, 4K/120). Google TV includes Gemini for voice search and recommendations, plus AirPlay 2. The Pro bundle adds a three-year replacement warranty, a backlit rechargeable remote, extra Sony Pictures Core credits, and an enhanced Voice Zoom 3 dialogue mode; picture hardware is the same as the standard 7 II. From RTINGS: Pros: Great black levels with minimal haloing. Bright details in HDR stand out incredibly well. Fantastic SDR brightness helps it overcome glare during the day. Fantastic upscaling and great low-quality content smoothing. Colors are incredibly bright and vivid. Cons: Dark scenes are hard to see during the day. Sonos Arc Ultra - $1099 The Sonos Arc Ultra supports Dolby Atmos that has a 9.1.4 driver layout and Sound Motion woofer to produce wide, height-enhanced surround and stronger bass from a single bar. It connects to a TV with one HDMI eARC cable, supports Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, AirPlay 2, and the rest of the Sonos ecosystem (including optional Sub and rear speakers), and can be controlled with the TV remote, Sonos app, touch controls, Sonos Voice Control, or Alexa. Trueplay tunes the sound to the room, and AI speech enhancement is meant to keep dialogue clear. It is a long, low-profile bar (about 46 inches wide) sold in black or white. Sonos Sub 4 - $899 The Sonos Sub 4 is a wireless subwoofer for Sonos S2 systems, pairing with current soundbars and speakers to add bass down to about 25 Hz. Two inward-facing 5-by-8-inch woofers and dual Class-D amps use a force-canceling layout so the cabinet stays relatively still and the bass stays clean. It has the same slot-style shape as earlier Subs, in black or white matte, and can stand upright or lie on its side. Updates over the Sub 3 include Wi-Fi 6, a faster processor, more memory, lower idle power, and a slightly lighter cabinet; setup is through the Sonos app, with optional Ethernet. Two Sub 4s can be used with the Arc Ultra. Master Bedroom: Sony BRAVIA 3 II 4K HDR LED Google TV (Model Number K55XR30M2) - $798 - The Sony BRAVIA 3 II is Sony's 2026 entry-level 4K LED set, sold from 43 to 100 inches. It uses a direct-lit LED panel, a 120 Hz refresh rate, and the XR processor for color, motion, and upscaling. HDR covers Dolby Vision, HDR10, and HLG. All four HDMI ports are 2.1, with 4K/120, VRR, and ALLM. It runs Google TV with Gemini, AirPlay 2, and Chromecast, plus built-in speakers that pass Dolby Atmos and DTS:X to a soundbar. The picture is good in bright rooms; but as you would expect, the contrast and HDR are limited compared with higher BRAVIA models. If you are going to use this for anything more than casual viewing or you are really critical of picture quality you may want to look elsewhere. But for those on a budget or used in a secondary room, it's a solid TV.

Your house might be quietly stressing you out, and it has nothing to do with the mess on the counter.That's what my guest, Dr. Rachel Melvald, and I dig into on this week's episode, and honestly, it kind of wrecked me in the best way. Rachel is the founder of Psychitecture, where she blends neuroscience, psychology, and design to help people understand why their homes make them feel calm, chaotic, or somewhere in between. We're not talking Pinterest boards here. We're talking about the actual signals your nervous system is picking up from your walls, your lighting, and even your throw pillows.I've been in my body-and-hormones lane for a while now, so this one stretched me in a direction I wasn't expecting. Your home isn't just where you live. It's constantly talking to your nervous system, whether you're paying attention or not.Here's a taste of what we get into:The one lighting mistake almost every American home makes, and why it's quietly wrecking your sleep and your moodWhat "prospect and refuge" means and why your brain needs both privacy and connection built into your spaceThe surprising link between your home and your relationship, and why remodels reveal way more than paint color preferencesHow color actually shifts your nervous system state, and the easy way to use it without repainting a single wallWhy open floor plans might be working against you more than you thinkThe single cheapest fix Rachel recommends starting with, no remodel requiredIf your house has ever felt like it's somehow adding to your stress instead of relieving it, you're not imagining that. Rachel explained that our brains are constantly scanning our environment for cues of safety or threat, the same primal system that's been running since we were cave dwellers. Your nervous system doesn't know the difference between a real threat and a room that just feels off. It reacts the same way either way.We talked about how something as simple as swapping harsh overhead LED lighting for a lamp can shift your whole evening. I actually did this in my own home recently and noticed the difference almost immediately. Less jarring, more settled, like my body finally got the memo that it was time to wind down. Rachel breaks down exactly why that happens and what it's doing to your circadian rhythm behind the scenes.We also went deep on something I hadn't thought much about before, which is how our homes shape our relationships. Rachel used to be a couples therapist before she moved into this work, and she shared how something as ordinary as a remodel or a move can bring every unresolved wound in a relationship right to the surface. One person wants everything put away, the other wants it out where they can see it, and suddenly you're not really arguing about a shelf anymore. If you've ever had a weirdly heated conversation about furniture placement with your partner, this part is going to hit close to home.And if you're a mom, the piece on kids' rooms is worth the listen on its own. Rachel talks about how a child's space should shift as they grow and move through different developmental stages, and how giving them some say in their own room can support their sense of identity and independence in ways most of us never consider.What I loved most is that Rachel keeps bringing it back to something simple. A dimmer switch. One lamp. A little more intention about where you sit and what you're looking at. Small, doable shifts that speak directly to your nervous system, no gutted kitchen or hired designer required.Next time you walk into your house, pay attention to what your shoulders do. Do they drop, or do they creep up toward your ears? Your body already has an opinion about your space, it's just been talking to you in a language you were never taught to read.

What is it Like to be Led by You? Summary:  Do you know what it’s like to be led by you? Good intentions do not always translate into positive leadership impact. Ciarán Casey joins The Leadership Habit Podcast to explore why leadership is relational, how leaders can become more aware of the experience they create, and the six elements that help leaders get back “in tune.” Most leaders have good intentions. They want their teams to feel trusted, supported, empowered, and valued.  But good intentions do not always create a good experience. You might give someone more autonomy because you trust them, only for them to walk away feeling abandoned. You might step in to help because you want to make their job easier, while they interpret your help as a sign that you do not trust them. You might send an email late at night simply to clear your inbox, while your team assumes they are expected to be available after hours. That gap between what a leader intends and what others actually experience is at the heart of this episode of The Leadership Habit Podcast. Host Jenn DeWall sits down with leadership practitioner, coach, and author Ciarán Casey to explore why leadership impact matters more than good intentions and how leaders can become more conscious of what it is actually like to be led by them. Meet Ciarán Casey, Leadership Coach and Author Ciarán Casey is a leadership practitioner and coach with more than three decades of senior leadership experience across sectors and international environments. His work focuses on organizational transformation, culture, high-performing teams, and complex human dynamics. More recently, Ciarán has focused on leadership development, working with individuals, leadership teams, senior civil servants, and executive teams to strengthen trust and collaboration. His book, Leadership in Tune, grew out of a question he kept encountering throughout his career: Why do some highly capable, intelligent, confident leaders struggle to connect with the people around them, while others seem to create environments where people naturally flourish? For Ciarán, part of the answer lies in the difference between leadership intent and leadership impact. Your Intentions Are Only Half the Story Leaders rarely set out to frustrate, disengage, or demotivate their teams. The problem is that employees cannot experience a leader's intentions. They experience their behaviors and interactions. As Ciarán explains: “The intention isn’t the problem. What we need to focus on is the experience.” That distinction can be uncomfortable, especially when we know our intentions were good. But it also gives leaders a more useful way to evaluate their effectiveness. Instead of asking, “What was I trying to do?” effective leaders can ask, “How might that have been experienced?” That shift matters because leadership behaviors carry more weight than we may realize. Ciarán points out that leaders are constantly being observed. A delayed response can be interpreted as a lack of interest. Silence can make people wonder if something is wrong. A rushed conversation can leave someone feeling like their time or contribution does not matter. As he puts it, a leader's impact is amplified. Becoming more aware of that leadership impact is not about overanalyzing every interaction. It is about recognizing that the meaning we intend to communicate and the meaning someone receives are not always the same. Leadership Does Not Happen in Isolation One of the central ideas in Ciarán's work is that leadership is relational. We often think of leadership as something an individual possesses. We describe someone as confident, charismatic, decisive, or a strong communicator and conclude that those characteristics make them a good leader. Ciarán challenges that idea. He argues that leadership emerges in the space between people. A leader can offer direction, guidance, or support, but leadership only takes shape when another person is willing to engage with and follow that direction. “Leadership is a relational practice that doesn’t reside within an individual, but emerges between people.” That changes the way we think about leadership development. Instead of focusing exclusively on the leader’s characteristics, we can pay more attention to the quality of their interactions. Are people willing to speak openly? Do they feel trusted? Do they feel heard? Does the leader create the conditions for people to contribute? Those everyday interactions are where leadership impact becomes real. The Six Strings of Leadership In Leadership in Tune, Ciarán introduces his Conscious Relational Impact Model, built around six elements of leadership. As a guitarist, he compares these elements to the guitar’s six strings. A guitar does not need every string to be completely wrong to sound off. One string that is out of tune can change the sound of the entire instrument. Leadership can work the same way. The six strings are organized across three stages: The Connected Self: Authenticity and Emotional Intelligence Effective leadership starts with understanding yourself. That means knowing your values and how they influence your behavior while also having the emotional intelligence to understand and regulate the impact you have on others. Authenticity without emotional intelligence can become an excuse to behave however you feel in the moment. Emotional intelligence without authenticity can feel performative. Leaders need both. The Bridge: Presence and Trust From there, leaders have to create the conditions for connection. Ciarán describes presence and trust as the two spans of a bridge between people. Trust determines whether it feels safe to cross. Presence determines what it feels like to cross. One of the simplest ways leaders can strengthen that bridge is by giving people their undivided attention. Phones, emails, meetings, and competing priorities make genuine presence difficult. But when a leader is distracted during a conversation, that distraction can communicate something they never intended: You are not important enough for my full attention. Shared Impact: Co-Creation and Influence Once leaders have built that connection, they can create shared impact through co-creation and influence. Ciarán describes co-creation as one of the most underused leadership skills. Leaders do not need to have every idea, solve every problem, or provide every answer themselves. Instead, they can involve capable people in designing solutions, processes, products, and outcomes. Influence also changes depending on the situation. Sometimes leaders need to be direct. Other times, they can draw ideas and creativity from the people around them. The key is that shared impact becomes much easier when trust and connection already exist. Which Leadership String Is Out of Tune? The goal of Ciarán's model is not leadership perfection. It is awareness. A leader may be authentic and emotionally intelligent but struggle to be fully present. Another may care deeply about their team but fail to build trust. Someone else may build strong relationships but rarely give others enough opportunity to co-create solutions. When something is not landing the way you intended, Ciarán's six strings offer a framework for asking why. “We’re not going for perfection here. We’re just going for improvement.” That can start with small moments of reflection. Think about a recent conversation that did not go as planned. A piece of feedback someone did not respond to well. Or, a meeting where the energy suddenly changed. Maybe a team member who has started pulling back. Rather than immediately focusing on what is wrong with the other person, consider the interaction itself. What might they have experienced? Which leadership string may have been out of tune? What could you adjust the next time? What Is It Like to Be Led by You? Toward the end of the conversation, Ciarán offers a question that captures the central idea of the episode: “What’s it like to be on the receiving end of me?” It is a very different question from “Am I a good leader?” Being a strong leader is an evaluation we can make about ourselves. Understanding how people feel and what it is like to be led by us requires considering someone else's experience. That is where leadership impacts lives. You will not always get it right. Your intentions and someone else's experience will not always align. But becoming curious about that gap can help you build stronger relationships, strengthen trust, and create an environment where people are more willing to contribute their best over the long term.

The Vibe: Utilitarian homemade aesthetic with blocky printed polymer grips and frame, exposed metal DIY barrel/bolt, and reference photos showing side-by-side comparison to a Bryco 22; raw FOSSCAD open-source vibe with technical STL and drill-key files.
