Kerbside collection has been underway for the past few weeks, but the Brisbane City Council has confirmed it will be suspended until further notice. Civic Cabinet Chair of City Standards, Councillor Sarah Hutton, told Gary Hardgrave on 4BC Drive, "There are a number of suburbs that it is suspended for, so that's Hawthorne, Hemet, Lota, Wynnum, and Lytton, so that's for this week." "And also next week Belmont, Chandler, Gumdale, Manly, Ransom, and Wynnum West." "If you are in those suburbs and you do have items out on the curb, if you can actually bring them in, it would be enormously helpful." "But with this tropical cyclone off the coast, we really need to make sure that safety is the priority," Councillor Hutton continued. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

My guest this week is Dr. Charles Hoffe, a man who has been—for the past 3 years—the victim of misguided and malicious charges by the BC College of Physicians and Surgeons, the BC Interior Health Authority and the BC Ministry of Health. Despite his exemplary record as a family doctor and ER doctor, he has been denied hospital privileges and threatened for speaking out about the dangers of the experimental mRNA vaccines. Earlier in February of this year, the College dropped the misconduct charges against him because of the mountain of evidence provided by 8 expert witnesses. Dr. Hoffe gives glory to God for answered prayers but warns our viewers and listeners that the assaults on free speech and medical integrity continue, especially with BC's HPOA (Health Professions and Occupations Act), formerly Bill 36, which puts every medical professional under the thumb of government.To learn more Dr. Hoffe's work and challenges and to contribute to his legal defence costs, visit: https://drhoffe.ca

Choosing an asset allocation is a crucial investment decision, as it determines expected returns and risk exposure. During this episode, we uncover what this means, exploring topics such as why risk may not always be the best assessment method. We unpack the three factors that John Grable's risk profiling framework considers: behavioural loss tolerance, the ability to take risk (which assesses the financial capacity to withstand losses without affecting lifestyle), and the need to take risk. Many investors sabotage their returns by selling after losses and buying after gains, and we discuss the reasons behind this. We also explore why stocks tend to become less risky over long horizons, while bonds can be vulnerable to inflation and interest rate changes, before explaining why investors should focus on compensated risks. In the aftershow, we address listener comments on absolute returns, XEQT, why we have made certain sponsorship decisions, and more. To gain a deeper understanding of risk and avoid common pitfalls that can undermine your returns, tune in today!   Key Points From This Episode:   (0:05:10) The critical importance of choosing an asset allocation and understanding risk.  (0:08:35) How behavioural loss tolerance impacts asset allocation.    (0:18:42) Psychological theory on risk tolerance and willingness to engage in financial behavior.  (0:30:48) Assessing your need to take risks.  (0:39:24) Why market volatility is not where the true risks lie. (0:47:42) Private credit, other portfolio alternatives, and GICs.  (0:53:03) The aftershow: demystifying the AMA controversy. (1:00:20) Absolute returns, XEQT, and sponsorship on the Rational Reminder. (1:12:05) An update on Ben's health and what he has learned from this experience.    Links From Today's Episode: Meet with PWL Capital: https://calendly.com/d/3vm-t2j-h3p Rational Reminder on iTunes — https://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-rational-reminder-podcast/id1426530582.

This week, This Matters is publishing episodes of the Toronto Star's new podcast Small Things Big Climate. The way we talk about climate change needs to, well, change. Everything is either invisible, like emissions, or incomprehensible, like megatonnes, or inconceivable, like reductions of national emissions 25 years in the future. The cause of climate change is simple: it's fire. To end global warming, we need to stop burning things. Guests: Tim Stezik of Toronto Fire Services, Lytton fire survivor and author Meghan Fandrich and Pulitzer Prize finalist and author of Fire Weather, John Valliant.

The authorities may have finally learned of the man on the moor's identity, yet, as they say, this only raised many more questions than his real name answered.  As police questioned his family, his neighbors, service providers, and even an ex-girlfriend, a picture of a pretty peculiar man emerged.  "Neil Dovestone" went by the name David Lytton.  However, even his legal name was perhaps a privacy screen to hide his emotions and past behind, as his given name was David Keith Lautenberg.  Described as a kind and conscientious man, Lytton also led a very ascetic and minimalist lifestyle, adding to the mystery of his mindset.  Those who knew him in England, even his partner at the time, Maureen Toogood, had no idea he had quietly moved to Pakistan after abruptly cutting off contact to live there for several years.  Even with more pieces to the puzzle now in place, there's still no clue as to what led him to where he chose to end everything and why.  Was it solely his doing, or was someone else involved?  What seems likely is that his body was staged postmortem so it would be found in a more peaceful pose.  Although you may think this story is "Case Closed," the official status from the UK courts is that it's still an "Open Conclusion."  Join us once again for Part 2 as we learn more about a man whose life was as much of an enigma as his death.

This episode features Shauna Rosenblum who joined Ridge Vineyards in 2022 as their Lytton Springs Winemaker. She oversees all winemaking at the Lytton Springs facility in Healdsburg, CA, and she brings a lifetime of winemaking experience with her to Ridge. Her father, Kent Rosenblum, of Rosenblum Cellars, introduced his winemaking passion to Shauna at an early age. Kent taught her to read brix on a refractometer at the age of three, she started working on the bottling line at the age of twelve, and by the age of sixteen, she attended blending sessions with the winemaking team. Always enamored with fine art, Shauna received a scholarship to California College of Arts and Crafts, then pursued her Master's Degree at San Francisco Art Institute. During her ceramics studies, she took chemistry classes where she noticed that the process for creating glaze compositions was the exact same process as blending wine. This led her to the epiphany that winemaking was art. She completed the UC Davis Master's Wine Executive Program and in 2008, Rosenblum joined Rock Wall Wine Company as Winemaker. Her lifelong wine training coupled with her philosophy of winemaking as fine art led her to seek out treasured old-vine field blend sites and esoteric varieties like tannat, teroldego and ciliegiolo. She directed a portfolio of over fifty grape contracts around California and oversaw all aspects of production on every lot of wine from crush to bottling. During her 14-year tenure at Rock Wall Wine Company, she rose to the rank of President and Chairperson of the Board of Directors. We talk about what it's been like to like to step into her role as part of the Ridge legacy since 2022, and we open a very special bottle on air together that she sent to Atlanta that hadn't been released yet representing her first vintage in this lead role. You can visit www.ridgewine.com to leard more about Ridge and Shauna's work, and you can follow @ridgevineyards on Instagram.

On June 30, 2021, a fast-moving wildfire burned most of Lytton, British Columbia to the ground. Two people were killed and 90 per cent of the village went up in flames. Three years later, most of Lytton is still empty and construction hasn't begun on most of the structures that were destroyed. Playwright and actor Kevin Loring and Toronto Star crime reporter Peter Edwards hope that will soon change. The two were born and raised in the village. They join David Common to discuss their new book Lytton: Climate Change, Colonialism and Life Before the Fire, and explore why Lytton has played such a huge role in the fight against climate change. 

A little over three years ago, a roaring, rapidly spreading wildfire burned through Lytton, a B.C. town of around 200 residents. It essentially burned to the ground. And even though at least $239 million dollars have been promised or poured into the recovery – rebuilding has been slow, and people are frustrated.CBC Vancouver reporter Yvette Brend just returned from Lytton. She tells us about the town's delayed recovery, and how it might be a cautionary tale of climate disaster recovery.For transcripts of this series, please visit: https://www.cbc.ca/radio/frontburner/transcripts

The result is her first collection of poetry, “Burning Sage: Poems from the Lytton Fire.” She joins Tom to talk about it and read a poem from the collection.

Guest host David Common speaks with Washington Post White House bureau chief Toluse "Tolu" Olorunnipa, Wall Street Journal senior political correspondent Molly Ball and former CBC Washington correspondent Keith Boag about the stakes at play following the first U.S. presidential debate, playwright Kevin Loring and journalist Peter Edwards reflect on the legacy of the Lytton, B.C. wildfire three years on, NPR science reporter Michaeleen Doucleff talks about what ancient cultures can teach us about raising kids, and former NBA star Rex Chapman explores his journey through addiction.Discover more at https://www.cbc.ca/sunday

Ever heard of a “backyard ultra?” It's actually a real thing. It's not a forever-long session of chores in the lawn, but an actual event format. It's kind of like a “last one standing” race, where competitors must consecutively run the distance of 4.167 miles (6.706 kilometers) in less than one hour. There's no predetermined distance or time in a backyard ultra, so rest and fueling are also a big part of the game. On this episode of The Running Around Charlotte Podcast, presented by Novant Health Orthopedics and Sports Medicine, we've got the scoop on just such an event in the works here in the Charlotte area. John Lytton is in the studio with DC and guest host Lindsey McGee to explain how it works, and why former NFL star DeAngelo Williams is part of this whole thing!

In this Episode, we'll be discussing 3 major and recent fire evacuation disasters. The 2021 Lytton wildfire, the 2023 Yellowknife fires, and the 2023 Nova Scotia Wildfires. What similarities and differences exist between these 3 unique incidents, and what can we learn from them as Emergency Managers. To this end we will be speaking with Professor Steve Gwynne who is the research technical lead for GHD movement strategies, and an expert in people movement during disaster. His discussion covers some of his findings from a recent report on these wildfires, as well as some great plain language preparedness advice for EP Week 2024.

On this episode of The Construction Record Podcast, digital media editor Warren Frey speaks with British Columbia Institute of Technology instructor Justin Perry about a new holistic approach to wildfire management. Perry recently spoke at TedX Abbotsford with a talk titled “Holistic Wildfire Management: Seeing Fire Through Multiple Lenses” (embedded below) which elaborated on ways in which we can change our perspective from a traditional approach of fighting every fire individually to shaping, cultivating and adapting the landscape to a new set of conditions as climate change creates stronger and more deadly wildfires across Canada every summer and fall. He also explained how traditional Indigenous wildfire management methods can and have been adopted to combat fires and speaks to several resources both for studying previous catastrophic fire events such as the Lytton and Fort McMurray wildfires, and resource hubs for both individuals and businesses to increase fire resilience. You can listen to our recent two-part series looking at geopolitical upheaval, labour shortages and the economic outlook for construction with ConstructConnect chief economist Alex Carrick and senior economist Michael Guckes here and here and all our episodes are available at the Daily Commercial News and Journal of Commerce websites, on Libsyn and at  Apple Podcasts, Spotify and Amazon Music's podcast section.

What does the Bible (and the Apostle Paul in particular) teach us about the role of women in ministry leadership? To help us find answers to that critical question, I invited my friend Ryan Lytton to offer his expertise. Ryan is a minister, scholar, and theologian, specializing in Biblical Interpretation during the Patristic Period (100-800 AD). He is a professor at Life Pacific University holding a B.A. in Biblical Studies, an M.A. in Christian Thought, and is currently pursuing a PhD.

When a wildfire ripped through Lytton, B.C. in June of 2021, the town burnt almost entirely to the ground. Meghan Fandrich lost her small business — the Klowa Art Café – to the fire, and turned to writing poetry for the first time in her life to help her cope with the loss. The result is her first collection of poetry, ‘Burning Sage: Poems from the Lytton Fire'.

Gi is joined by Louisa Lytton, a talented actress known for her roles in hit British TV shows like "EastEnders" and "The Bill." Louisa's world took a turn when she stepped into the journey of pregnancy and motherhood, all while keeping up with her bustling acting career. Juggling these roles wasn't without its challenges, and the pressure of her job only added to the mix. Amidst all this, Louisa's story is one of joy and resilience. In this episode, she opens up about her time on "EastEnders," revealing heartwarming stories of support from her co-stars and talking honestly about the guilt and internal struggle faced by many mums-to-be caught between their careers and exciting changes ahead.

There are still many people who are determined to deny the dangers of the climate emergency with refusal to face facts or even by supporting censorship. There are lots of stories at the moment about the climate, principally about soaring sea temperatures, but also about the legacy of wildfires in Canada and the effect of temperature on solar panels. Are we counting the cost of the climate crisis correctly? A paper in Nature Sustainability suggests that we are counting the money cost and ignoring the human cost. How will we achieve a transition to net zero? Is Just Stop Oil the answer, or will it make things worse? And finally how good are you at thinking on your feet, when faced with tricky climate questions? There's a new online club to help you with that. First, though, we'll look at some political policy issues.
