Dave is joined once again by part-time co-host and WSL commentator Mitch Salazar to break down all the drama, triumph, and heartbreak from Stop No. 7 of the 2025 Championship Tour—the Western Australia Margaret River Pro. With Jordy Smith and Gabriela Bryan each securing their second wins of the season, both now sit atop the rankings and inch closer to their first World Titles. Dave and Mitch go deep on the event's biggest winners and most surprising losers—from Lakey Peterson's clutch performance to save her season, to the top 5 men faltering at a crucial stretch of the calendar, to a sobering mid-season cut for Channel Islands' stacked roster. The duo also takes stock of the updated Vissla CT Shaper Rankings, highlighting which board builders are leading the charge and which brands are left regrouping post-Margarets. They answer burning fan questions (Is power surfing the key to a world title?) and give updates on the wildly competitive Lineup Fantasy League. Follow Mitch here.

Bei dieser Folge geht's uns wieder ordentlich an die Nerven, denn die geniale Erfindung von Margaret E. Knight steht kurz davor, von einem dreisten Betrüger geklaut zu werden, der behauptet, er hätte sie entwickelt. Margaret hat in Kleinstarbeit eine Maschine entwickeln, die Papiertüten mit einem stabilen Boden herstellt, hat Pläne gezeichnet und die Maschine als Modell nachgebaut. Alles scheint glatt zu laufen, bis sie ihre Erfindung vor Gericht verteidigen muss. Der Prozess bleibt spannend bis zum Schluss und es sieht nicht danach aus, als würde die Wahrheit, sondern eher das Patriarchat siegen...Hier könnt ihr Margarets erste Zeichnungen der Papiertüten-Maschine ansehen. Willkommen beim einzig wahren True Science-Podcast! Hier geht's um die Lebensgeschichten von Menschen, die mit Wissenschaft unsere Welt verändert haben. Wir fragen uns: Was hat sie bewegt, was haben sie erlebt, und wie kam es zu diesem einen Geistesblitz?! Dabei ist eins sicher: In der Wissenschaft gibt's jede Menge Gossip und den hört ihr hier. “Behind Science” gibt's jeden Samstag - am Science-Samstag.

Este sábado en Fin de Semana Australia en Español nos ponemos la nariz de payaso y hablamos de ayuda a la comunidad a través de una sonrisa. Ese es el propósito de Angélica Ramírez, una psicóloga colombiana que ha fundado ‘Path of Margarets', en Perth, una organización que propone levantar el espíritu de pacientes y comunidades, a través del ‘Clown Social' o Payaso Social. Y, como cada sábado, tenemos los segmentos de deportes y las noticias positivas de la semana.

Shakespeare's Margaret takes center stage Whitney White's trajectory from MFA to CAA happened fast. After earning a Master of Fine Arts from Brown University in 2015, she is now represented by Creative Artists Agency, a talent juggernaut in the entertainment world. Her degree is in acting, but directing earned her a Tony Award nomination in April for Jaja's African Hair Braiding. Now, her play By the Queen is in rotation at the Hudson Valley Shakespeare Festival through Aug. 31, under the direction of Shana Cooper. By the Queen, subtitled "A Survivor's Tale," contains plenty of the Bard's lines and scenes, which White uses to craft a sophisticated psychological study of Queen Margaret of Anjou, captured on the same battlefield as Joan of Arc. She is also one of the only characters to appear in multiple Shakespeare plays. "Shakespeare isn't the Bible," says White, so it's adaptable and applicable to today. To punctuate the point, she immediately pierces the fourth wall as the main character struts toward the audience and says, "Hi there. Oh, don't be shocked. I can see you and I know that you see me." Margaret, for whom Shakespeare coined the term "she-wolf of France," gets airtime in four of his so-called history plays: Henry VI, in three parts, and Richard III, which White's script calls "one of the most epic - badass - stories ever written." This queen is also Shakespeare's only female character to age chronologically. The script presents just about all of Margaret's mentions, utterances and scenes from the original plays, shifting gears from old prose to modern English and back without hitting any speed bumps. White divides her life into three roles: Margaret 1 (Malika Samuel), age 16 to her "dirty thirties," according to the character description; Margaret 2 (Sarin Monae West), who makes dire decisions and suffers terrible consequences; and Margaret 3 (Nance Williamson), the only character in Richard III to confront the immoral king. The play is framed as Margaret 3's flashback during her final exile in France, where she enjoys wine and mulls her fourth and final act. She and the other Margarets are onstage together almost the entire time as they interact, question motives and revel in her/their ability to survive this tragical history tour through the War of the Roses in the 1400s. White denotes the presence of "a lot of men. Too many men" in the four plays and dismisses their injurious affairs with comic effect: "blah blah blah politics, blah blah blah land, blah blah blah power." During battle scenes, the principals and minimalist ensemble (Bobby Moreno, Luis Quintero, Travis Raeburn, Stephen Michael Spencer) scream "waaarrrr!" and engage in madcap play-fighting antics as light and sound play along. The script probes more than it preaches. Samuel's note-perfect Margaret 1 almost hijacks the show based on her performance, not necessarily the lines. The character debuts as naive comic relief and ultimately evolves into a moral compass as Margaret 2 murders rivals, becomes a widow, watches her son get killed and is served her lover's severed head on a platter, "medium rare." Yet the play never condescends into an anti-male screed and calls Shakespeare the "greatest writer who ever lived," even as White subjects his words to inquiry, marshaling line after misogynistic line hurled at Margaret to examine his perspective onstage in real time. This approach could easily devolve into dull academic deconstruction, but White handles these sections with nimble effect. Employing a hilarious herald (Jacob Ming-Trent) to condense the action and serve as a "purist," she zeroes in on the pivotal characters and distills the four plays so well that minimal prior knowledge is required to follow along. As Margaret 3, Williamson conveys the older queen with confidence as she inexplicably returns from banishment in France to confront Richard III. Otherwise, Williamson as narrator is the bemused, resigned, "resplendent elder" called for in ...

THE NINE BILLION NAMES OF GOD (and RENDEZVOUS WITH RAMA) by Arthur C. Clarke / ARE YOU THERE, GOD? IT'S ME, MARGARET. by Judy Blume Fellow "pleasures to have in class," join us this week for Toby's rollercoaster of a review plus a short journey through Bailey's puberty. First, Toby surprises us all with a review of the film ARMAGEDDON...oh wait, we mean the sci-fi classic RENDEZVOUS WITH RAMA by Arthur C. Clarke! Then, Bailey tries to relate to an eleven-year-old when she finally reads the seminal coming of age novel ARE YOU THERE GOD? IT'S ME, MARGARET. We have time to share our non-book-buying shame, to give ourselves report card comments, and to play a game identifying all the Daisys...oh wait, we mean Margarets!

In this second episode of Series Seven, host Andrew Martin meets professional genealogist, author, lecturer, Fellow, and former Principal Family History Specialist of the National Archives - Dave Annal. Dave tells Andrew how he got hooked on researching his family, how he ended up working for the National Archives, his thoughts and hopes on where he sees the genealogy industry going next, and his love of Wills.THE LIFE STORY - MARGARET HOWLAND  Dave has chosen to tell the life story of his paternal Grandmother, Margaret Howland, who was born in Edinburgh in 1906 to an unmarried mother also named Margaret Howland.Whilst both Margarets were known to be hoarders, it seems that they both continued this behaviour when it came to the identity of Dave's Great Grandfather. However, one day, whilst on a walk to a cemetery, Margaret, then in her 80's, decided to reveal her father's identity... and the time she had shared with him.THE BRICK WALL - THOMAS FLYNN It's a research brick wall with Irish roots that is baffling Dave. Whilst Thomas Flynn and his wife Catherine have been found in Edinburgh, Scotland in 1851 and 1861, Dave is unable to find out about them before and after this date. Dave descends from one of the couple's sons, and he has that documented, but Thomas and Catherine - along with their marriage, births, baptism, and deaths, all remain a mystery.If you think that you can help Dave with a research idea or clue, then you can contact him at his Lifelines Research website, via his @lifelines_dave Twitter account, or via the email address he gives during the episode. Alternatively, you can send us a message and we'll pass it straight on to him.In the meantime, Dave is curious of Andrew's offer of help, but is he really ready for what's in store?...- - -Episode Credits: Andrew Martin - Host and ProducerDave Annal - GuestSend us a Text Message.Thank you for listening!

Wir haben mehr als Fachkräftemangel, nämlich Arbeitermangel. Und das ist gut für Arbeitnehmende, weil es ihnen erstmals seit Jahrzehnten neue Chancen bietet. Das ist die zentrale These im neuen Buch der Demografie-Expertin Margaret Heckel. Wir sprechen darüber, wieso ein Vertriebsleiter Wurtstverkäufer wird oder ein 91jähriger zum Unternehmensgründer, über weitere Beispiele für berufliche Veränderungen im fortgeschrittenen Alter, über die großen Trends, die das ermöglichen und die kleineren, die gerade anlaufen sowie über Margarets ganz eigene Vorstellung von Arbeit und Alter. Antworten gibt es u.a. auf die Fragen: - Warum wechseln Menschen jenseits der 50 noch den Job? - Welche Voraussetzungen muss der-/diejenige mitbringen? - in welchen Branchen gibt es die größten Chancen?

Just days before Margaret formally announced she was to leave her role as CMO at Siegel & Gale she joined That's What I Call Marketing live from New York and gave a Masterclass in Simplicity. Margaret been acclaimed as the unofficial ambassador of Ireland, been honored by many Irish organizations, including Douglas Hyde's Foundation, Irish Voice Women of Influence, and Top 100 Irish Americans in Business in the United States. When it comes to marketing she is equally honored, noted as a LinkedIn Top Voice in Marketing, The Drum B2B Marketer of the Year, is a Marketing Society fellow, has been published in Harvard Business Review, Fast Company, Forbes, and more. We chat through so much, Margarets Irish upbringing and her career journey, we talk about the importance of curiosity (she brings it up not me!), and continual learning. Margaret elaborates on the ethos of simplicity in branding, characterised by the intersection of clarity and surprise. We discuss the significance of brands delivering on their promises and the challenges of ensuring consistent, user-friendly experiences across multiple touchpoints. The conversation also dives into the evolving perceptions of Gen Z towards branding and social media, as well as the shifting roles and aspirations of marketing leaders. We also manage to get into Margarets passion for Irish fashion through here Wearing Irish initiative and indeed today she is wearing Irish from designer Helen McAlinden, we talk poetry, art and her advocacy for celebrating Irish creative talent on a global scale In this enlightening chat04:37 Margaret's Early Interest in Ads and Marketing20:13 The Importance of Simplicity in Branding24:28 Challenges and Barriers to Achieving Simplicity28:56 The Role of a Chief Marketing Officer31:26 The Expansive View of Branding37:56 The Impact of AI on Customer Experience54:51 The Influence of Brands on Culture56:36 Challenges for Marketing Leaders in 2024Get in touch about sponsorship and partnerships at thatswhaticallmarketing@gmail.com Instagram www.instagram.com/thatswhaticallmarketing/ X twitter twitter.com/thats_marketing .Youtube: www.youtube.com/@thatswhaticallmarketing You can listen to all old episodes www.thatswhaticallmarketing.com Hosted on Acast.

With Parliament about to break for the summer, exchanges between MPs in the House have gotten tense. But is it just June — when the hours run long and the frustrations high — or has decorum in the chamber taken a nasty slide? This week on “It's Political,” we survey MPs about the tone in the chamber and what it is leading to outside the House, and we sit down with three insiders, former Liberal MP for Northumberland—Peterborough South Kim Rudd, former NDP national director Karl Bélanger, and former spokesman for Pierre Poilievre, Anthony Koch, to unpack the strategies behind the aggressive, personal, and often vitriolic attacks.   Finally, we'll look forward to Monday's byelection and survey the current political landscape with Abacus Data CEO David Coletto.

Do you know what federal riding you live in? Do you know what riding you'll be in for the next federal election? Every ten years, the boundaries are reviewed to take into account changes in population. It's a way to make sure all MP's represent around 85,000 Canadians, give or take 25%. This week, the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Procedures and House Affairs (PROC) heard objections to proposed changes to three Nova Scotia Ridings. They heard from Halifax West MP Lena Dian, Sydney Victoria's Jamie Battiste and Central Nova's Sean Fraser. And a group calling themselves the Concerned Citizens of St. Margaret's Bay are speaking out. Doug Stout says they're upset with a plan to draw a boundary line down the middle of their community to accommodate the population growth in Halifax. And they are upset with a process that didn't seem to give them a say in a proposal that originally wasn't even on the table.

The crew gears up for the Season 5 finale in grand fashion as they go live, for a two part series. They first meet with a legendary host / curator, a comedian, a rapper, and a ref even. Part 1 of 2 Everyman Show · "Margarets" – Ep. 164 Sea. 5

3 de mayo | San Juan, ArgentinaEl mejor momento. Bienvenido a La Wikly.Leer esta newsletter te llevará 6 minutos y 48 segundos.🇲🇽 Crisis de feminicidiosPor Anita PereyraLo importante: México asiste a una escalada de violencia contra las mujeres del país con 229 presuntos feminicidios registrados en los primeros tres meses del año.La cifra oficial de feminicidios no ha dejado de crecer desde 2015. Ese año fueron 412 presuntos casos. Para 2021, esa cifra se había duplicado con creces con hasta 977 casos registrados por las autoridades nacionales.Estas cifras responden a delitos específicamente tipificados como feminicidios. La cifra total de muertes de mujeres en México por presuntos homicidios es de 1,745 en el primer trimestre de 2022.⚠️ Aviso: he decidido adherir al término “feminicidio”, propuesto por la antropóloga mexicana Marcela Lagarde, en lugar de femicidio para hacer referencia al homicidio intencional de una mujer a manos de un hombre motivado por razones de machismo o misoginia. Explícamelo: en 2020, México ocupaba el segundo lugar de América Latina en cantidad de feminicidios, según las cifras más recientes disponibles del Observatorio de Igualdad de Género de América Latina y el Caribe.Los grupos feministas llevan años denunciando la vulneración de derechos de la que son víctimas las mujeres del país, reflejada en las cifras tanto de feminicidios como de violencia de género.En materia de violencia sexual, por ejemplo, de enero a diciembre de 2021 se denunciaron 69,514 delitos sexuales entre los que se encuentran violaciones sexuales, abuso, acoso y hostigamiento sexual a mujeres y niñas. Solo en enero de este año ya se habían denunciado 4,775 delitos de violencia sexual contra mujeres en el país. Y apenas en el primer trimestre del año se registraron más de 74,000 llamadas de emergencia vinculadas a incidentes de violencia de género.Aunque muchos defensores de los derechos de las mujeres esperaban avances después de que el progresista Andrés Manuel López Obrador fuera elegido presidente en 2018, la situación no ha mejorado desde entonces.De hecho, AMLO se ha enfrentado en repetidas ocasiones contra el movimiento feminista, llegando a sugerir incluso que tales activistas eran herramientas de sus rivales políticos conservadores.Contexto: aunque se trata de una problemática que lleva años asolando a la población femenina de México, las cifras han suscitado un renovado interés en la prensa nacional e internacional debido a un caso reciente: el presunto feminicidio de Debanhi Escobar.Debanhi, una estudiante mexicana de 18 años, desapareció en las afueras de Monterrey, capital del estado de Nuevo León, a comienzos de abril. Dos semanas después, su cuerpo fue hallado en el tanque de agua de un motel.Decenas de manifestantes se reunieron frente al motel la semana pasada para la última de una serie de manifestaciones que exigen justicia para Debanhi, cuya desaparición y aparente asesinato reavivaron el trauma social de una devastadora ola de feminicidios en la ciudad fronteriza de Ciudad Juárez hace dos décadas.“Lo que le sucedió a Debanhi sucede en miles de otros casos en todo el país a diario. (...) 11 mujeres son asesinadas en este país todos los días. Tenemos por lo menos 20,000 mujeres desaparecidas en México. Y las fallas del Estado en la búsqueda de estas mujeres y la investigación de lo que les ha sucedido se han mantenido sin cambios durante casi 30 años”, dijo Edith Olivares Ferreto, directora ejecutiva de Amnistía Internacional en México.¿Y ahora? La situación, aunque crítica, no parece tener lugar en las prioridades del gobierno de AMLO. El presidente suscitó una oleada de indignación cuando, tras el hallazgo del cuerpo de Debanhi, afirmó que no había motivos para preocuparse especialmente porque es algo que “sucede en todas partes”.“Este es uno de los gobiernos que más ha criticado el movimiento feminista en las últimas décadas”, dijo también Olivares Ferreto. “Lo único que queremos es que el Estado haga su trabajo”.Más información en Observatorio Ciudadano Nacional del Feminicidio.🤰 Aborto: peligro inminenteLo importante: la cabecera POLITICO se hizo este lunes con un borrador de la decisión mayoritaria que habría tomado el Tribunal Supremo estadounidense para acabar con Roe v. Wade, el precedente que protege el derecho al aborto en Estados Unidos desde los años 70.El borrador no implica que la decisión sea definitiva ni tampoco que los jueces que la apoyan ya tengan claro su voto final, pero es una ventana a la posible conclusión de uno de los grandes debates de Estados Unidos en las últimas décadas.Contexto: Roe v. Wade es una decisión de 1973 que, junto a otra a primeros de los 90, han definido el acceso al aborto en Estados Unidos desde hace décadas. Un rechazo total de Roe v. Wade implicaría la posibilidad de que se restrinja el aborto en multitud de estados conservadores.Ahora mismo, el derecho al aborto en Estados Unidos suele estar garantizado hasta la semana 22 ó 24, pero varios estados han aprobado recientemente leyes para limitar ese acceso hasta la semana seis, como Texas.Explícamelo: los jueces del Supremo debaten sobre numerosos casos a lo largo del invierno y la primavera, tiempo en el que también se hacen públicas sus decisiones finales.Dentro de ese tiempo de debate, los borradores son habituales. De hecho, que unos jueces se sumen a una u otra opinión en borrador no significa necesariamente que vayan a mantener ese apoyo hasta la decisión final.¿Y ahora? Cabe esperar una decisión final del Supremo en los próximos dos meses. Algunos periodistas creen que esta filtración es un intento interno de presionar a los jueces para que vean las repercusiones negativas de imagen que tendrían deshacerse de Roe v. Wade.Más información en POLITICO.👗 Vuelve The GalaLo importante: el Museo Metropolitano de Nueva York volvió a engalanarse para celebrar la Met Gala con invitados como Blake Lively, las Kardashian o Rosalía y un tema muy neoyorquino: ‘En Estados Unidos: una antología de la moda’.A los invitados se les pidió que intentaran lucir modelos de Estados Unidos a finales del siglo XIX, pero con un toque moderno. Evidentemente, muchos han hecho lo que les ha salido del pito.Contexto: la gala del MET está organizada por Anna Wintour, editora jefe de Vogue, y se celebra de forma anual cada primer lunes de mayo. Es una cita que congrega a las mayores estrellas del mundo.La alfombra roja sirve como presentación de looks que van acordes a una temática concreta que cambia cada año y que cuenta con su propia exhibición dentro del museo.¿Y el salseo? La Met Gala también destaca por su retahíla de anécdotas rosas. Este año, la mayor la han protagonizado Pete Davidson y Kim Kardashian, que fueron juntos pese a que no son pocas las veces que ella ha ido con Kanye West en el pasado.En otras anécdotas: Adrien Brody asistió de la mano de Georgina Chapman, ex de Harvey Weinstein.El top5 de Emilio: Blake Lively (siempre es la mejor, salvo cuando está Zendaya), Dakota Johnson (de los minimalistas, el mejor), Sebastian Stan (el más arriesgado), Cara Delevingne (la steampunk que necesitábamos) y Kourtney Kardashian & Travis Baker (la pareja más ambiciosa).Mención especial para Bad Bunny y Renate Reinsve.El top5 de Anita: Blake Lively (siempre es la mejor, sin excepciones), Genesis Suero (full princess, amamos), Taylor Hill (fantasía de vestido), Madeleine Petsch (me reconcilié con el amarillo gracias a este look) y Shawn Mendes (💍).Mención especial para Vanessa Nadal y Lin-Manuel Miranda.Puedes ver todos los looks en Vogue.👾 En el DiscordUn retazo de Maricopa LandMuchos maricopers estuvieron comentando los looks de la Met Gala en el canal Moda y Trends. Blake Lively ganó la contienda, a juzgar por la cantidad de menciones a su vestido, aunque esta imagen de Doja Cat compartida por @MargaretS también encantó:En otro orden de cosas, este martes vuelve Emilio con sus streams sobre política internacional sin centrarse tanto en la actualidad de la guerra de Ucrania. Espera titulares sobre la OTAN, China y Malí.Y sobre mí, todavía me dura el entusiasmo por la ópera del sábado. Fue un espectáculo preciosísimo, y no sabés lo mucho que extrañaba ir al teatro.

Its a Margaret River theme on today's episode! Namu talks Red Bull Foam Wreckers, a new one day event coming to the Margies Riverdog in December with Chris "Binnsy" Binns. It is all about fun in the sun with an emphasis on good times! Binnsy also gives us the skinny on the "Facing Monsters" book launch held at Shelter. Vasse photog Andrew Semark did the stills for Kerby Brown's groundbreaking doco and the accompanying book is nothing short of breathtaking. The launch was in support of Lifeline with much needed funds raised to support the amazing work they do in the mental health space. Elsewhere, Adzy jumps between commentary obligations and podcast duties at the 39th Margaret River Classic. He manages to wrangle interviews with Up and comers Mia McCarthy, Remy and Otis North, as well as Margies Legends Andrew Sheridan, Jed Mattinson and Hamish Gibson. It's another ripper of an epsisode, so crack a Cheeky Monkey, sip on a Forrester or enjoy a non alcoholic bevvy and jump in!

Do you ever start doing something different because there's a possibility you're being watched? I know I have. Recently I was thinking about an event early on in my conscious parenting journey. I was at a restaurant with my family and I saw an acquaintance (let's call her Margaret). I impulsively began to play with Lily's hair. Why did I do it? Was it to show off how connected I was to my daughter? And why did I care so much about the opinion of this woman who barely knew me? It's interesting to note the ways in which our behavior can change based on who's around to see it. Now, the road toward becoming a conscious parent is a long road! Following in this path requires that we all become acutely aware of our behaviors and the motivating factors behind them, and sometimes the Margarets in our lives, both real and imagined, can help with this. Early on in my conscious parenting journey, I developed a sort of life hack where I pretended I was on a reality TV series with cameras all over pointed at me. Is it weird? Maybe a little. But it also helped me pay attention to my behaviors, specifically in parenting. I constantly ask myself: what are my motivations for doing whatever I'm doing? This is not to say that you should be overly concerned with what other people think about your parenting style or your relationship with your children. In fact, as a general rule, you shouldn't care! (See episodes 96 and 97 for more on this topic.) HOWEVER, the reality TV technique can jumpstart your mental focus, forcing you to get curious about your own behaviors and their motivations and be aware of what you must modify within yourself to become a better parent. As you develop confidence in your ability to be the mentor, the rational mind, and all the other things children need from adults, you can go from the reality TV mindset of “parent like everyone is watching” to “parent like no-one is watching.” You've got this!

Margaret “Peggy” Dennis Carnahan is retired from the U.S. Air Force and currently a Captain for NetJets. Peggy is a member of the 1980 U.S. Air Force Academy Class, the first to graduate women! She rose to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel, serving as an Air Force Instructor Pilot and Squadron Commander. Her awards include Air Training Command Master Instructor (1985) and Outstanding Young Women of America (1987). Peggy’s impressive bio is included at the end of this article.  Being the first in anything is rarely easy. Each career path comes with its own set of challenges and the Air Force is no exception. Today Peggy is considered a trailblazer for women military aviators, but it almost didn’t come to be. Very early on in her career she began to realize obstacles she would need to overcome if she was going to have any success at all. We’re sharing Peggy’s story with our readers as a testament to what can be achieved if one is willing to break barriers, from within and without.  Peggy, the sixth of seven children, grew up on a farm approximately 60 miles south of Chicago in a small town whose population was less than 3,000. Peggy was named after her grandmother Margaret, who passed away a few months before she was born. Her small town wasn’t big enough to have two “Margarets”, so she was given the nickname “Peggy”. Her father, an engineer and farmer, and her mother, a schoolteacher, set expectations for all of their children to attend college. Peggy’s brother who is five years older went to the Air Force Academy, and her sister, two years older than her, got a full Army ROTC scholarship to Arizona State.  As Peggy was exploring her options, she spoke with the local insurance agent, who was her dad’s high-school friend. He was a Colonel in the Air Force Reserve and a local Liaison Officer. Peggy vividly remembers stopping by to see him on a Friday to pick up a letter of recommendation for an ROTC scholarship. He asked her to look at the Air Force Academy as on option, as President Ford had recently signed a law abolishing the all male tradition in military service academies. The only catch was that she needed to give him an answer by Monday! She was 17 years old, and as one might expect from the forward thinking of a 17 year old, she decided that it would be a good idea. Why not! Besides, she had the thought that mountains are prettier than cornfields! And, one of her male high-school classmates was going to attend as well. She would have an ally, though in reality she rarely saw him.  Peggy struggled throughout her four years at the Air Force Academy, close to quitting several times. Eventually she realized she didn’t think beyond her decision to attend. Where were her four years going to take her? The Academy was challenging because of her mindset and lack of clarity. It took Peggy two years before she developed a mindset of “I want what this will give me; I want to be part of this group; I want these people to be my peers; I want to be one of them”. Today when she speaks with young people who are considering going into the Academy, she encourages them to consider what it will give them, and what their other options don’t, and to be sure that they want it!  When Peggy entered the Academy, she knew she was there because the initiative of having women was mandated by Congress, but hadn’t spent much time thinking about what she wanted from her time spent there – what her future would look like. Flying was not an option when she entered; there were no female pilots at the time. The Air Force was just starting to test that possibility. Looking back, Peggy realized that she was presented with an opportunity, and to fully benefit from this, she had to be willing to want what they had to offer and to get through it!  The whole emphasis in the Academy is teamwork. The basic training premise is to make the individual go away and build cadets back up as a member of a team where they are all the same. Competing against each other is a great way to fail. You can’t get through there by yourself. You do it as a team. You do it as a military unit. You have to take care of your roommate, you have to take care of people in your squadron, and you work together as a team. Because if you try to make it as an individual, you’re not going to make it.  Peggy was in awe with the other women. Coming from a fairly sheltered small town, she didn’t even have girl’s sports in high school until her sophomore or junior year and then they had no uniforms. The girls had to buy their own t-shirts and use masking tape to make numbers to create their own uniforms. Coming from that kind of environment, she met other women who were playing soccer since they were six years old. Peggy was astounded with the other women’s backgrounds and talents. She was surrounded by superstars and found it eye-opening and humbling!  Peggy’s roommate in her upper class years was Gwen Knuckles, the daughter of an Air Force Master Sergeant. She had traveled the world and lived overseas, a very different upbringing from Peggy. But that was not the only difference in the two women. While Peggy continued to struggle, Gwen was excelling and enjoying her time in the Academy. Gwen was bound and determined she was going to medical school. Her focus and positive outlook had a huge influence and impact on Peggy’s own focus and looking ahead to the future, in terms of where she was going and what she was going to do. In Peggy’s words, “She was a lifesaver for me.” In retrospect, Peggy realized that Gwen wanted to be there, did not complain, knew why she was there and where the Academy was going to get her, was clear on what she wanted to do, and more than anything, had a positive attitude. From that point forward, Peggy began looking at the positive side of things, and gravitated towards people with positive energy.  Gwen would go on to medical school and serve as a doctor in the Air Force. Peggy went into the Air Force flight school and began the next phase of her career – pilot training. At the time, there was a pilot shortage and women could officially go to pilot training, it was no longer a test program. There were only 26 women who were pilot qualified in her class, and they were still pretty much considered an oddity! Another factor in Peggy’s decision to go to pilot training was that her older brother did his pilot training five years earlier, and she wanted to show him that she could do it! Once in pilot training, Peggy’s mindset was one of determination and she knew what she had to do. She knew it would require a lot of work, concentration, and studying. And she was determined that if she didn’t make it, it wasn’t going to be for lack of effort on her part! She was not going to fail because she didn’t work hard enough. Positive mindset and focus! Peggy became the dedicated disciplined student she could have been previously, asking herself, “What can I really do?” She made sure she had set study time, sleep time, etc., making sure she did her part to ensure a successful outcome. And, in her words, “It turned out that I was actually kind of good at it and that I enjoyed it!” Peggy realized that the Air Force airplane recognizes talent. It doesn’t care who you are; it just cares about the skills of the pilot that has the controls.  Peggy excelled in pilot training and stayed on as an instructor. The program has changed quite a bit since then with technology and new aircraft. Then, it was a two-phase program where she flew T-37 for about six months and then flew the T-38 twin-engine tandem seat supersonic jet, which is still in use for pilot training.  One of the reasons Peggy wanted to remain as an instructor was because she felt strongly that the military would open up combat aircraft to women. And in 1993 Congress repealed the Combat Exclusion Law, but it took another year for the Air Force to allow women into combat cockpits. By that time, Peggy was considered too close to her retirement for the Air Force to consider her a candidate. Up until that point, the Air Force had severely restricted opportunities for women to have orientation flights in fighter aircraft. Peggy noted that this restriction significantly hampered her ability to counsel future pilots on career choices. When a four-star General visited her base and stated that he wanted more fighter pilots, Peggy asked, “If you want me to convince people to become fighter pilots, why am I not allowed to learn what that entails?” Right then and there, the General turned to the Colonel and said “Make it happen!”  Additionally, when women started looking for other ways to move their careers, Eileen Collins, the first woman to command a space shuttle, was the only female T-38 instructor on Peggy’s base, and Peggy was there!  Greatest Obstacles Peggy’s positive attitude has served her well, through a great career in aviation. One of the biggest obstacles she had to overcome was her own mindset. When she began, she didn’t think she was capable of some things, didn’t think she was good enough, didn’t think she had the potential, and would sell herself short. Additionally, she was raised thinking her options were to become a schoolteacher, nurse, or secretary. Peggy really shifted her trajectory with pilot training, where she decided she was going to put in her full effort and be as good as she could be. She knew she would either make it or not, and that it was up to her. She eliminated the thought that had crossed her mind many times – the thought that she is a woman and shouldn’t be there. Peggy shifted that by telling herself that she had every right to be there; every right to be like the others who were there. If she was not good enough it was not going to be because of her gender. Today, when Peggy looks back she realizes the societal changes and how opportunities have progressed for women. The mindset of women had also changed in how they view themselves, and women still have a ways to go. It takes several generations.  Peggy’s insights and perceptual filter shifts inspire and empower those following in her footsteps. She has trained many cadets and has helped them with their mindset – they are worthy and can be a great contributor to the Air Force, even if they are not the best graduate in their Academy class. She did it, and they can do it too! Peggy would not change a thing from her past experiences. They have all contributed to where she is today, and she is happy where she is.  Peggy’s guiding philosophy: “Stay optimistic; then your eyes stay open to opportunities. You’ll see the positive in the opportunities, and it’s up to you to act on it. You’re the one responsible.” “People can see and feel a positive attitude.” She shared the following from Colin Powell leadership lessons: “Optimism is a force multiplier.”  Peggy overcame obstacles and shifted her mindset to a positive one, and as a result, became a pilot trainer pioneer to pave the path for other women to have an opportunity to fly military aircraft for their country and is considered a “warrior” for women and their advancement. Additionally, because of her positive attitude, she has had incredible opportunities to witness some important events in history, such as the awarding of the Congressional Gold Medal to the Women Airforce Service Pilots (WASP), her mentors. In the course of her military and commercial flying careers, she has had the opportunity to brush shoulders with aviation legends such as General Chuck Yeager, as well as notable persons in the worlds of politics and entertainment.

The Wigtown (or Solway) MartyrsAt Wigtown, (Dumfries and Galloway) two courageous women, Margaret Wilson and Margaret McLaghlin, were executed by drowning in the Solway Firth, for the crime of worshipping Christ, in accordance with His Word, without interference from the state. Presbyterian Covenanters, they worshipped God in the fields and hills, singing Psalms and listening to faithful preaching. But that broke the law, which required people to attend the services of the Curates and Priests and Bishops of the Episcopalian Orders. Along with many other faithful Christians the two Margarets paid the supreme price, rather than deny their Lord.Listen to the podcast, for an inspiring story of faith under persecution.Psalm content with permission of Connor Quigley, www.ThePsalmsSung.org TO READ THE TRANSCRIPT - CLICK THIS LINK.

Velkommen til Connecticut, USA! I denne tredje del af sæson 6 (afsnit 232 af hele min rejse) kan du tage med på et spændende Couchsurfing eventyr gennem Connecticut i New England. Men lad os starte, hvor vi sluttede i den seneste episode i den mindste stat i USA, Rhode Island – og hvor jeg tjekker ind i min Airbnb i Rhode Island. ANKOMMER TIL PROVICENCE, RHODE ISLAND Da jeg banker på døren ved min Airbnb, bliver jeg mødt af min skønne værtsfamilie med en lille, men meget energisk og højrøstet hund. Det tog mig et døgns tid før den lille hund varmede op og blev gode venner med den danske vagabond, der havde invaderet dens hjem. Men det lykkedes. Det meste af den første dag i Providence brugte jeg bag computerskærmen og måtte vågne midt om natten for at instruere skuespillere i et studie i København. De havde kun tid om formiddagen, hvor det var nat for mig. (#nomade-liv). På vej videre kørte jeg gennem downtown Providence, mens jeg lyttede videre til Crime Town – en true-crime podcast om byen. NEWPORT, RHODE ISLAND Herefter besluttede jeg mig for at benytte et forslag, jeg havde set på nettet under ”ting at se i Rhode Island” og kørte sydpå til den berømte Cliff Walk i New Port. Et smukt område på en ø med en dejlig udsigt, små stier og enorme huse. Det var skønt at gå en tur på klipperne og dufte havet. NEXT STOP: CONNECTICUT Senere samme dag ankom jeg til Connecticut – den tredje af de seks stater, som jeg ville besøge på denne roadtrip. Jeg havde bestemt mig for at bruge en anden form for indkvartering denne gang. Jeg ville bruge Couchsurfing. CONNECTICOUCH: ET COUCHSURFING COUCHCRASH Lad mig fortælle dig lidt om Couchsurfing konceptet inden jeg møder mine nye venner her. Couchsurfing.com er en gratis platform, hvor rejsende og værter kan finde hinanden og aftale et sted at overnatte. Det hedder Couchsurfing – altså Sofa-surfing, men du sover typisk ikke på en sofa. Jeg har gjort det overalt i verden, og jeg har altid fået mit eget værelse. Man opretter en profil og får gratis adgang til værter overalt i verden, som åbner deres hjem for en vildt fremmed. Platformen blev startet i 2004 og i dag er der mere end 15 millioner brugere. Du kan søge værter i mere end 200.000 byer overalt i verden, og kan sende en besked til dem, og høfligt spørge om de vil åbne deres hjem for dig. Der er ingen penge, der skifter hænder, men du bør ikke betragte det som et gratis hotel. Det er forventet, at du bruger tid med din vært og lærer dem at kende. Det er jo derfor de åbner deres hjem. Ja, det er rart at spare penge, men det bør ikke være hovedårsagen til at bruge Couchsurfing. Det er også normalt at give dem en lille gave. Det kan være en flaske vin, du kan invitere dem ud at spise eller måske tage noget ikonisk med fra din hjemby. Men det kan også være, at du bare synger en sang eller fortæller en historie. MØDER JASON En mand går ind på en bar og møder Jason og hans partner, Lee… Jeg ved at det lyder som starten på en dårlig vittighed, men det er, hvad der skete. Der var meget støj på baren og ikke ideelt til at optage en podcast, så vi gik ud bagved, hvor de har et udendørsområde med nogle borde og iskolde øl – og her mødte vi mange af de andre, der var kommet til CouchCrash, denne weekend. Jason er hovedmanden bag denne weekends arrangement. De kalder det ConnectiCOUCH, og afholder det hvert andet år i denne lille stat mellem Boston og New York. ”Dette er anden gang, vi laver det, efter den store succes, vi havde med den første for to år siden”, fortæller Jason. ”Vi forsøger at få folk fra hele verden til at komme hertil, og vise dem, hvor fantastisk Connecticut er”. Ikke alene er dette mit første CouchCrash, det er også mit første besøg i Connecticut. Og jeg er ikke den eneste – der kommer ikke mange turister her selvom det ligger meget tæt på både New York og Boston. ”Selvom Connecticut er en meget lille stat, er der en masse interessant at opleve, og der sker faktisk en masse her. Der er masser af historie og smuk natur. Og Connecticut er et sted, som var først med mange ting. Den første hamburger blev lavet her… og den første telefonbox i USA var her” Når Jason ikke er vært for vagabonder arbejder han som manager i et af statens store kasinoer. COUCHCRASH Couchsurfing værterne i området arrangerer dette CouchCrash: En flerdags event, hvor medlemmerne viser deres stat for hinanden og folk udefra. Vi kommer til at lære en masse om området og oplever byerne på en helt ny måde. Det er en helt speciel oplevelse, som jeg nu skulle prøve at opleve for første gang. ”Det er en fantastisk måde at samle Couchsurfing-værter og gæster fra hele landet kommer her til Connecticut og nyder, hvad staten byder på. Vi havde vores første ConnectiCOUCH i 2016 og blev enige om at afholde en hvert andet år. Vi tilstræber at tilbyde noget for enhver smag: udendørs aktiviteter, historiske udflugter, fester, ”river tubing”, besøg på museer og meget andet”. CONNECTICOUCH OG COVID-19 Denne episode er naturligvis optaget inden Corona-pandemien. Jason har netop fortalt mig, at de havde planlagt at lave endnu en ConnectiCOUCH i 2020, men den blev desværre aflyst. Nu er det planen at afholde den i august 2021, men kun tiden vil vise, om det også er for tidligt. Du kan finde Couchsurfing events over hele verden på Global Couchsurfing Event Calendar. COUCHCRASH OG FÅ NYE VENNER Et CouchCrash handler om at opleve noget i et område, men mest af alt handler det om at møde gamle venner og få nogle nye. ”Det er en fantastisk måde at møde mange forskellige mennesker. Specielt når mange kommer langvejs fra for at opleve Couchsurfing stemningen i Connecticut. Mottoet for Couchsurfing er: ”Mød venner du ikke har mødt endnu”, hvilket meget godt forklarer, hvad det hele handler om. Jeg har fået venner for livet takket være Couchsurfing. Det er helt utroligt at få specielle venskaber på denne måde”. Og det samme gælder for mig selv. Jeg har mødt mennesker rundt omkring i verden på denne måde, som jeg stadig er venner med. Inden jeg blev nomade, og stadig havde et hjem, var jeg selv Couchsurfing vært. Her havde jeg f.eks. en tysk mand og en colombisk kvinde til at bo hos mig. Tyskeren var på en cykeltur fra Sydtyskland til Nordnorge (og tilbage). En fantastisk mand med nogle vilde historier. Og kvinden boede i København, hvor hun underviste på et universitet. Hun ville gerne se lidt mere af Danmark og jeg viste hende rundt i Aarhus og tog hende med til byfest i Randers. Bagefter lærte hun mig at danse salsa i min stue. Jeg har også været på en Couchsurfing tur med mine børn. Vi overnattede hos nogle skønne mennesker i Rotterdam, Nederlandene, Gent i Belgien, and Normandiet, Frankrig. Helt fantastiske lokale oplevelser, som vi sikkert ikke ville have fået, hvis vi havde boet på hoteller. MARK TWAIN HOUSE & MUSEUM Den næste morgen mødte jeg ConnectiCOUCH’erne på en plads i byen Hartford. Med 125.000 mennesker er Hartford den næststørste by i Connecticut efter den lidt større Bridgeport. Skuespilleren Katharine Hepburn er herfra og i 17 år boede en anden kendt person her: hans navn var Samuel Langhorne Clemens, men vi kender ham nok bedre som Mark Twain. Huset, som Mark Twain boede i med sin familie, er nu et museum: the Mark Twain House & Museum. Og det var den tur, jeg valgte at hoppe med på. Og det varmede mit danske hjerte at opdage, at der var en LEGO-figur med manden lige indenfor. Sam Clemens aka Mark Twain blev født I 1835 og han døde i 1910. I 1874, da han var sidst i 30’erne, fik han dette hus bygget og han skrev nogle af sine mest berømte historier her: The Adventures of Tom Sawyer og opfølgeren, the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Han er kendt som ”faderen af amerikansk litteratur” og ”den største humorist, USA har produceret”. Jeg var med på turen gennem huset og museet og lærte en masse interessant om denne forfatter og hans arbejde. Ifølge guiden, kostede huset omkring 250.000 kr. at bygge, hvilket vil svare til godt 6 millioner kr. i nutidens penge. Hvis man medregner designermøblerne i huset, er det hele vurderet til næsten 19 millioner danske kroner. På det tidspunkt var Mark Twain stadig en ukendt forfatter, så det var hans hustrus arv, der betalte for huset. Det er ret stort – på mere end 1000 m2, og har 25 værelser på tre etager. Arkitektonisk er det et meget specielt hus, så uanset om du er interesseret i Mark Twain eller arkitektur, er det klart et besøg værd. Hvis du vil besøge det (efter pandemien – det er lukket lige nu her i marts 2021), så er det en god idé at lave en reservation i god tid. Det er en populær attraktion, og du risikerer, at der ikke er plads, hvis du venter til sidste øjeblik. FACTS OM HARTFORD De første engelske bosættere ankom her til i 1635, og i starten kaldte de deres by for Newtown, men det blev omdøbt et par år senere til Hartford. Så med næste 400 år er Hartford en af de ældste byer i USA. Når den er sådan en gammel by, har de været først med mange ting. De har det ældste offentlige kunstmuseum, the Wadsworth Atheneum og den ældste nulevende avis, The Hartford Courant. Hartford har kælenavnet ”verdens forsikringshovedstad”, fordi mange forsikringsselskaber har deres hovedsæde her. Og forsikring er stadig regionens største industri. Det er her i byen, serien Judging Ami finder sted. Den var i luften fra 1999-2005. Den var dog ikke filmet her. MØD MARGARETE WEBSTER Efter en tur rundt i Hartford med en af de lokale, Margarete, satte vi os ind i hendes bil – en kæmpestor Chevy Silverado. Jeg spurgte hende, hvorfor i alverden, hun har sådan en stor bil. ”Jeg var på et tidspunkt i gang med at renovere mit hus, og havde brug for en stor bil til at kunne transportere materialer fra byggemarkedet. Da mine børn flyttede hjemmefra, besluttede jeg mig for at tage på en 8-års tur rundt i USA. Og så var det godt at have en stor bil med plads til telt og kajak på taget. Senere købte jeg en autocamper og min Chevy var for stor til at trække efter den. Derfor solgte jeg den og købte en mindre Jeep. Og da den ikke kunne mere bestemte jeg mig for at få en ny Chevy Silverado.” Når folk spørger mig, hvor lang tid jeg vil fortsætte med at være nomade, siger jeg: ”Indtil en af mine unger gør mig til morfar”. De er begge kun midt i 20’erne og siger, at der kommer til at gå mange år. Amanda studerer design på Den Danske Designskole i Kolding og Clara læser til Antropolog på Aarhus Universitet. Faktisk har hun lige skrevet sin Batchelor om Digitale Nomader (#FarErStolt).  Margarets historie er ret lignende. Hun er bare lidt foran mig… “Da jeg blev bedstemor, forelskede jeg mig samtidig i en mand. Jeg havde altid lovet mig selv, at jeg ville slå mig ned igen på det tidspunkt. Selvom jeg nyder mit liv, savner jeg stadig mit liv på landevejen”. Vi er på vej mod Manchester lige udenfor Hartford, hvor Margarete bor. Men hun voksede op i Hartford, så hun burde nok kunne finde vej. Men mens hun er i gang med at fortælle mig sin livshistorie, kører hun forkert. LÆS MARGARETES BOG OG BLOG Du burde kigge forbi Margarets blog og overveje, at købe hendes bog om livet på landevejen. Den hedder Lessons from the Road, USA by Margarete Webster. Her er lidt af hvad der star på bagsiden: “Lessons from the Road, USA shares the travel adventures of a funny, single, 50-something-year-old woman, traveling across the U.S. in a pickup truck.”  Og så står der videre: ”Webster is navigationally challenged…” Eftersom vi lige er kørt forkert, kan jeg bare sige ”No shit, Sherlock”. Du kan bastille Margarets bog på Amazon – klik her. Hendes blog hedder lftrus.com (forkortelse af “Lessons from the Road, US”). Som bogen er den også spækket med gode rejsetips. ”Connecticut er på papiret den rigeste stat i landet, men det afspejler ikke helt virkeligheden. Det er fordi Connecticut er forsikringshovedstaden i USA – og de er en slags “usynlige banker” som slæber en masse penge til staten. Og derfor giver det et lidt skævt billede i statistikkerne”. Det var alt, vi havde plads til i denne episode. I den næste kan du blandt andet høre Margarete fortælle en sjov historie om hvordan ”The Yankees” kom til at hedde ”The Yankees”. Mit navn er Palle Bo, og jeg skal videre. Vi ses.     TALE BESKED FRA EN LYTTER Phil fra Yorkshire I England har klikket på banneret, hvor der står ”Sig Noget” og sendt mig en skøn talebesked: ”Hej Pablo. Det er Phil Chatterton. Jeg er i solbeskinnede Yorkshire og vil bare sige tak for din podcast. Du har fået mig igennem lockdown her i Storbritannien. Det er fantastisk at rejse med dig, mens jeg gør rent i huset, fodre hunden, bager brød – og samtidig rejser til forskellige lande med dig. Det har været en lang hård lockdown, og vi er ikke ude af den endnu. Men det der rigtigt har fået mig igennem den, er at lytte til dig. Lytte om de steder, du har været og på de mennesker, du taler med. Det giver mig håb og lys forenden af tunnelen. Ha’ det godt”. Mange tak, Phil…! Skønt at du ville tage dig tid til at sige hej. Og jeg skal nok lade være med at drille dig med, at du kom til at kalde mig Pablo. Tro mig, jeg er blevet kaldt værre. Du kan også gøre som Phil har gjort.

This weeks guest is a woman who thought her career had all been mapped out after studying for years to become a successful a lawyer. Margaret Shenken shares how she left the world of law behind and finally followed her heart in to the world of fitness. She now helps women over 40 find joy in exercise and is helping women become happier for it. Margarets' Ted Talk "What if I don't know what my passion is?' was a huge success and I highly recommend you watch it. https://youtu.be/GBzEEP2Ti7M With previous careers in law and lecturing, Margaret discovered how difficult it is to accommodate exercise into everyday life. After her 3rd child, Margaret left corporate and started creating fun, cleverly constructed workouts that also delivered results, without being impossible and gruelling. By transforming exercise from a daily chore to a daily high, she has helped thousands of women become fitter, leaner and happier. First, through Fuse-Fit, fitness class franchise and now through the female FITNESS hub membership, enabling you to get fit from home. I love Margarets attitude to the world of fitness and it makes such refreshing change to hear her talking about how we need to bring the joy back in to our exercise, so if that means setting up a disco in your kitchen then just it and do it often! As Margaret says she is using exercise as a happiness and confidence pill.Subjects covered- Building a successful career in law Societies expectations Leaving the world of law behind What if you don't know what your purpose is?

Anne Glenconner tillhör de mindre kända, men nog så färgstarka, kretsarna kring det brittiska hovet. Under trettio år var hon hovdam till Prinsessan Margret, en så kallad lady-in-waiting. Förra året publicerade Anne Glenconner en sorts självbiografi med titeln Lady in waiting my extraordinary life in the shadow of the crown. Det blev en kioskvältare, en internationell bästsäljare, och inte bara för att den handlar om det brittiska hovet och ger nya inblickar i prinsessan Margarets liv, utan för att Anne Glenconner själv visar sig ha levt ett, milt uttryckt, händelserikt liv som hon generöst delar med sig av. Boken förde plötsligt Anne Glenconner ut ur skuggan och in i rampljuset, där hon verkar trivas som fisken i vattnet. Hon liksom lyser av glädje när hon gästar olika talkshows, där hon blivit en eftertraktad gäst genom sitt rättframma och roliga sätt att berätta de mest häpnadsväckande historier på, alla sanna. I veckans program berättar vi om den karibiska ön Mustique som Anne Glenconners man Colin Tennant köpte 1958. Ön skulle med tiden bli känd som exklusivt tillhåll för kungligheter och celebriteter, som prinsessan Margaret, Mick Jagger och David Bowie. Vi träffar Cecilia Andrén som är ansvarig för smycken på auktionshuset Bukowskis för att prata om den världsberömda och radikala juveldesignern Andrew Grima som under 1960 talet fick uppdraget som brittisk hovjuvelerare. Vi berättar också om den svenska, men i Storbritannien födda, kronprinsessan Margareta som trots ett kort liv gjorde stort intryck i Sverige. Carl Otto Werkelid är medförfattare till boken Hon kallades Daisy och berättar mer om henne. Veckans gäst är författaren och journalisten Susanna Popova.

Margaret Kamara is the co-Founder of District Chop Bar, a West Africa fusion concept based in Washington DC. Developed from Margarets love of food and her culture and buoyed from advice from a personal life coach, she started her business over two years ago with a focus on pop-ups, local festivals and catering events in DC, Maryland and Virginia or the DMV. District Chop Bar takes West African food and other fusion favorites and brings them to a wider DMV audience, hungry for a unique culinary experience.Margaret has been a leader in the local community founding Young African Professionals,, which has been supporting the over 10,000 diasporans in the area attain professional growth through workshops, conferences and events. Margaret became intimately connected to the area's culinary opportunities as well as the programs and organizations available in the District of Columbia to support entrepreneurs.Margaret discussed the decision making process of going into food experience versus a sit down venue or food truck, conscious of the failure rates and meagre margins associated with restaurants. She finally settled on operating from a commercial kitchen which has been a key factor in being able to not only scale but also currently pivoting to provide curb-side pick up and delivering food to customers within the area. Margaret also talks about how taking District Chop Bar from year 2 to year 5 and beyond is not only a labor of love but a family affair, requiring engaging her extended family in food operations and delivery.Margarets business funding philosophy for District Chop Bar is focused on grants tailored to support entrepreneurs working in the local community, whether that's supporting economic vitality in DCs Ward 7 or 8 or addressing food deserts and the lack of healthy options. She stressed the need to research and network and pointed out Chambers of Commerce or business cultivation workshops as key hubs for funding information and opportunities. Focusing on grants rather than loans at this time allows Margaret to ensure true understanding of tax liabilities as an LLC and a clean credit line should loans be necessary as the company grows.Margaret discussed learning from the success and insights from DMV staple Swahili Village and how they exemplify the best balance of presentation and customer service and discussed unveiling the District Chop Bar African Fusion Lunch Box - allowing a weekly sign up for a lunch portion size of delicious food available for busy families all currently at home due to the pandemic.

Kees Morsink and Margaret Van Helvoort have traveled the world as United Nations aid workers in Africa where they were fermenting everything from yogurt to mango and even doing some distilling. Cider isn’t new to these two enterprising Canadians. Kees had his first spontaneous ferment forty years ago when he put a gallon of cider in his school locker and the cider began to ferment. Now-a-days they split their time traveling to India, Nepal, and Thailand making jewelry. This lifestlye provides them the ability to manage their own time which really helps with the seasonal demands of cider making. Four years ago they began the process of starting up a commercial cider making operation at their home. The Tasting Room open in May 2018. I visited with my Canadian host Ryan Monkman of Fieldbird Cider in June of 2018. We sat down in the Kees and Margarets living room and then moved to the Tasting Room next door. From May 31st to December 31st you can visit the Tasting Room on Saturday and Sundays from 11-6pm. There is a window that allows viewing into the cidery. We tasted the full compliment of Kings Mill Ciders, which are all available via their online store.

Margaret Starbird and her profound body of work is like a beacon of light, not only letting us know that there is another side to the stories we have been told for centuries, but provides us with all of the clues so that we might see for ourselves and make our own conclusions. Having spent years of extensive research she gives us the tools enabling us to see what has been hidden in plain sight. She, like you and I, stand upon the shoulders of our foremothers and sisters, without whom none of what we create would have been created. She, like you and I form part of the ever expanding circle of Source. IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL HEAR MARGARET SHARE FROM HER TREASURE TROVE OF WISDOM AND KNOWLEDGE AS WE TALK ABOUT: How Margaret first became interested in the search for the Holy Grail and reclaiming the “Sacred Feminine” in Christianity. What lies at the basis of the belief that Yeshua and Mary Magdalene may have been married and had a child. Where the title “the Magdalene” came from. How the ancient cults of “Sacred Marriage” is related to the story of Mary Magdalene and Yeshua. What happened to Mary Magdalene after the Crucifixion. Why this truth the “Sacred Union” at the heart of Christianity was lost. How the information about the Sacred Marriage in Christianity managed to survive. What Leonardo Da Vinci's painting “The Last Supper” have to do with the suppressed tradition about Mary Magdalene as the “Lost Bride”. How the very first heresy was the denial of the Bride. Why Margaret believes that the Passion of the Christ does not begin at Gethsemane or the Last Supper but at the beginning of the week with the anointing of Yeshua's body. How synchronicities played an important part of Margarets path. How Mary Magdalene & Yeshua are the archetypes for the union of flesh and divinity – as are you. – and much, much more…

The study claims that low saturated fat in take can shorten ones life by 13%, yet a diet high in fat cuts ones life by 23%. How confusing! The solution? The authors suggest a happy medium..yet strongly urge to not have a high fat intake. Listen in to hear the NTP perspective! Secondly, a new article talks about how preservatives can make us gain weight. Preservatives can interfere with our endocrine system and cause weight gain. But what about natural preservatives?

When Margaret Bashford, a wealthy friend of Adelle's dies, Adelle has Margaret's memories implanted in Echo to try to solve her own murder. Posing as Julia, a pen-pal of Margarets, Echo/Margaret tries to solve the case during what she sees as her "second chance". Boyd, now the new security director of Dollhouse, imprints Victor to help Echo out as a racehorse owner which may hold the key to the mysterious. Meanwhile, Topher signs Sierra out for an intensive "benchmark" imprint, which turns out to be that of a fellow gamer nerd and friend. Elsewhere, Ballard obtains Mellie/November's fingerprints and sneaks into the FBI headquarters to run them to ascertain her true identity.
