Portsmouth is worse than Fanny could've imagined, and in these chapters, she tries to find a friend among her family. Mary sends a gossipy letter to Fanny, and Fanny kind of likes it. Fanny buys a knife for her little sister AND joins a library! Topics discussed include regency era dentistry, Fanny's llama mama, Mrs. Price's resemblance to her sisters, the social status of the Ward sisters, Spicy Susan, the Saturday half-holiday, the comparison of Portsmouth to celibacy, Mary poking the bear, Baron Wildenhaim's courtship of Julia, what qualities in a person are innate, and luxurious and daring wealth.Patron Study Questions come from Avi, Kate, Ghenet, and Linnea. Topics discussed include how Fanny's sisters could've benefitted if she'd come home earlier, Mrs. Price as a tragic figure, and Fanny's lack of a female friendship, where Fanny truly belongs, whether Portsmouth is an enticement or warning about marrying Henry, and Maria as a warning.Becca's Study Questions: Topics discussed include the picture Jane Austen is painting of the lower classes and how Susan complicates that picture, what role Susan plays in the narrative, whether Fanny really misses Mansfield, why Maria is unhappy, and predictions about our former main characters. Funniest Quote(s):“As to the little irritations, sometimes introduced by Aunt Norris, they were short, they were trifling, they were a drop of water to the ocean, compared with the ceaseless tumult of her present abode.”“I hope she will recollect it and be satisfied, as well she may, with moving the queen on a palace, though the king may appear best in the background.”Questions moving forward: How close will Fanny and Susan get?

The debut of the new Netflix series based on the 'Little House on the Prairie' series by Laura Ingalls Wilder has drawn some interest to the Laura Ingalls Wilder Home & Museum in Mansfield, Mo. Curater Tana Melton says Wilder eventually spent a majority of her life in Missouri, in Mansfield. Melton says Wilder originally wrote her stories geared for adults, but they didn't sell well, she then rewrote them as a series of children's books. She says the home is fulled with history, including Pa's fiddle, which was made famous in the books and on the tv series starring Michael Landon. (Photo by Andrew H. Walker/Getty Images)

Everyone wants to stand out at work. Berry Mansfield figured out that the secret isn't being the loudest or the smartest — it's being the easiest. As President of Mitsubishi Logisnext Americas, Berry has built an entire career on one principle: be easy to work with. In this episode, he traces how that idea carried him from accounting all the way to the president's chair, and why the simplest principles are usually the most powerful ones.

Two Rice alums are shaking up the renewable energy world with Tierra Climate, an AI-powered energy storage platform that's quietly reshaping how the power grid works.Co-founded by Jacob Mansfield (BA '16) and Emma Konet (PMBA '24), Tierra Climate is driven by a shared belief that the transition to clean power needs to happen faster. Both have been passionate about the energy space since early in their careers, and when they saw an opportunity to use AI and software to accelerate the deployment of storage on the grid, they committed fully, leaving stable careers behind to build something that could make a real impact on climate change.They join host Brian Jackson '21 to trace their unlikely path from Citibank trading desks to startup life. They open up about the underlying anxiety of early-stage founding but why entrepreneurship is still worth it, how large-scale batteries are being underutilized on the grid, and the ways the Rice network keeps showing up.Episode Guide:00:00 Introductions & Origin Stories06:29 Founding Tierra Climate11:39 Customers & the Energy Storage Market16:36 The Startup Journey23:11 Taking the Leap & Building with AI29:29 The Rice Network & Industry Trends35:33  What's Next & the Texas PilotThe Owl Have You Know Podcast is a production of Rice Business and is produced by University FM.Episode Quotes:Magic happens when you commit20:13: [Jacob Mansfield] I had a professor in business school that said that magic happens when you commit. There's some sort of like lucky space of serendipity that you invite, and you talk to people, and you clearly come from the space and you understand their pain points, and yet you've kind of left all of that world to try to solve the problem. I think that's pretty compelling for folks. I think it's committing at inception, but it's like a continual process of commitment throughout the entire journey.On finding the courage to go all in18:48: [Emma Konet] I think going into that program, I'm not sure I ever would've quit my job and foregone health insurance and taken the big risk, because I was scared. I mean, I was genuinely like, "Oh, like, that feels really risky. I'm not sure my risk tolerance is there." But through the process of my MBA, I think because Rice is so focused on entrepreneurship, that's kind of in the veins of the MBA program throughout. I basically got convinced that it wasn't as big of a risk as I thought, and I think throughout that program, it just made me realize, you know what? Just do it. Like, it was kind of the "just do it, just take the leap" mentality that pushed me over the edge, and I'm very glad that I went full-time on this. On building something that matters16:11: [Jacob Mansfield] Emma and I used to joke early on this concept of existential dread, which I'm sure founders can relate to. You know, when you work in a big organization, it may get some little nervousness around, like bonus day or when you hear, there's going to be some reorg. But generally speaking, I wasn't concerned, going in day in and day out, that Citibank would be in existence. It was one of the largest companies in the world. And so I think the difference is when you start a company, you do have, like, those butterflies in your stomach or that kind of like, okay, like, I want to make sure that what I'm building is going to amount to something and be meaningful.Show Links: Tierra Climate“Clean Energy's Missing Link” | Rice MagazineTranscriptGuest Profile:Jacob Mansfield | LinkedInEmma Konet | LinkedIn

This week on The Literary Life, we continue our Summer of the Short Story replay series. On today's episode, Cindy and Angelina discussed Katherine Mansfield's short story "The Garden Party." They start with how Cindy found this story and the connections she was making to Little Women. Angelina gives a brief biographical sketch of Katherine Mansfield and highlights how Mansfield's own illness and death give us insight into how she deals with death in this story. Angelina walks us through how she looks at the use of figurative language and images, such as the Garden of Eden. They also touch on "The Garden Party" having the same structure of moving toward a moment of epiphany that we saw in "Araby."  Cindy brings up the disconnect between the world of the women at home and the working people outside the home, as well as between the classes in this story. They talk about the importance of Laura's new hat as a symbol of one type of person she can become. Another image that Angelina and Cindy take a look at is the descent from the garden into darkness. They discuss the parallels from the beginning of the story and the end of the story, as well as Laura's movement from innocence to experience, from blindness to sight.
