How would the Rochester region have developed differently without the Erie Canal? This year marks the canal's bicentennial, and a number of events are planned. Modern life has changed the canal from economic engine to a multi-use resource. Enthusiasts say more New Yorkers should use it.

Ferrara, professor of English at SUNY Oneonta and author of "The Raging Erie: Life and Labor Along the Erie Canal" Christine L. Ridarsky, historian for Rochester and Monroe County  Patrick Russell-Walsh, executive director of Corn Hill Waterfront and Navigation Foundation Nate Harrington, senior in the Magazine, News, and Digital Journalism program at Syracuse University and project coordinator for "Unlocking New York"

After 15+ years on the road, Seattle's Minus the Bear said goodbye in 2018... but not for long. Marking two decades since the release of their second album, Menos El Oso -- heralded by both critics and fans alike -- the five-piece are back this year to play the album in full across the country. A sprawling, math-rock masterclass, Menos takes listeners on a globetrotting trail through Spain, Ireland, Los Angeles and more, while vocalist/guitarist Jake Snider inhabits characters seeking escape, be it from fever dreams, crime scenes or soul-crushing day jobs. Today, Jake is joined by guitarist David Knudson, as the pair breakdown Menos track-by-track. Along with host Jim Hanke, they dive into the meanings behind some of the band's most impactful songs twenty years later, and how the genre-bending experimentation of Danger Mouse and DJ Shadow influenced the LP. Catch Minus the Bear at this year's Best Friends Forever Fest in Las Vegas, or on tour cost-to-coast, this fall. Visit minusthebear.com for tickets, social media and more.

Marking the start of the fourth season of the Victory Over Communism podcast, this episode explores the role of American Marxism in promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion policies. DEI programs are now being dismantled under the Trump administration. And Marxist radicals are fighting back in a bid to continue using DEI as a tool for fomenting a communist revolution against the American system. The counterproposal section explains why a Judeo-Christian based alternative to Marxism is the key to finding real solutions to the problems communism will never solve. The news portion looks at a recent Director of National Intelligence report exposing the hidden wealth and corruption of senior Chinese Communist Party leaders, including supreme leader Xi Jinping who has amassed a fortune of $1 billion through his relatives. The interview portion is with China expert Steven Mosher, author of the book "The Devil and Communist China." Must listening!

But there has been a major political backlash against green politics both home and abroad despite a global environmental crisis that only continues to worsen.

In this week's episode of Double Edged Sword, '25 Down, 25 to Go,' Father Genard leads us to the midpoint of the Great Fast with a stirring call to deepen our faith. Marking 25 days of Lent completed and 25 to go, he reflects on a childhood memory to urge believers not to turn back, but to press forward in devotion to our Lord Jesus Christ. This episode explores the true heart of fasting—beyond abstaining from food, it's about privileging our mouths with prayer, our ears with God's truth, and our lives with repentance and praise. As the Church offers the Mid-Lent Eucharistic service to cheer us onward, Father Genard challenges us to examine our fast: Have we committed wholeheartedly to Christ? If not, there's grace for the next 25 days. Join us to refocus on the Savior's Passion and Resurrection, finding strength in scripture, worship, and the promise of eternal life through Him who is holy, mighty, and merciful.

Glorious Bodies: Trans Theology and Renaissance Literature (U Chicago Press, 2024) offers a prehistory of transness that recovers early modern theological resources for trans lifeworlds.  In this striking contribution to trans history, Colby Gordon challenges the prevailing assumption that trans life is a byproduct of recent medical innovation by locating a cultural imaginary of transition in the religious writing of the English Renaissance. Marking a major intervention in early modern gender studies, Glorious Bodies insists that transition happened, both socially and surgically, hundreds of years before the nineteenth-century advent of sexology.  Pairing literary texts by Shakespeare, Webster, Donne, and Milton with a broad range of primary sources, Gordon examines the religious tropes available to early modern subjects for imagining how gender could change. From George Herbert's invaginated Jesus and Milton's gestational Adam to the ungendered “glorious body” of the resurrection, early modern theology offers a rich conceptual reservoir of trans imagery. In uncovering early modern trans theology, Glorious Bodies mounts a critique of the broad consensus that secularism is a necessary precondition for trans life, while also combating contemporary transphobia and the right-wing Christian culture war seeking to criminalize transition. Developing a rehabilitative acco unt of theology's value for positing trans lifeworlds, this book leverages premodern religion to imagine a postsecular transness in the present.

Aries Season Tarot Forecast March 20th - April 18th, 2025 In this episode we dive deep into Aries season, running from March 20th - April 18th, 2025. This season is a major transition point for the entire year! Fresh starts and new beginnings are here. The Sun moves into Aries on March 20th, 2025. Marking the Spring Equinox in the Northern Hemisphere. Globally recognized as the astrological new year! Universal Energies, Different Seasons Both Northern and Southern Hemispheres experience the same zodiacal energies simultaneously. Farewell Pisces, Hello Aries: Shifting Energies Transition from the compassionate, creative, intuitive energy of Pisces. Aries season ushers in: bravery, ambition, independence, creativity, impulsivity, impatience, quick temper, and headstrong mood swings. Time for Action: From Planning to Doing Aries season is the time to act on plans made during fall and winter. "Go time!" - Plant, do, shift, change, or start! The completion point of 2024 is officially here. March 20th, 2025, marks the true beginning of the new year. The Tangible Shift: Dreams into Action The host's personal favorite transition - the tangible feeling of change. Wake up and things feel different - a call to action on dreams. Simple concept: take dreams and put them into action. Encouragement to take small or large steps forward towards goals. Small steps accumulate over time. The marathon analogy: focus on crossing the finish line, not necessarily being first. Pace yourself. What You Need to Know: The Current Cycle The Nodes of Fate: Pisces/Virgo Axis Continues Influence continues through July 2026. Focus on balancing feelings with astute processing. Discerning between feelings and facts. Navigating new and unusual energies. Importance of a relationship with spirituality. Working to release perfectionism or feelings of futility. Emphasis on tiny and mighty day-to-day actions supported by spiritual practices. Significant Shifts in This Cycle March 27th: Venus Retrograde Enters Pisces Venus passed her halfway point in retrograde. Emergence as the morning star after her "powerwash" from the sun. Evaluate what no longer serves wants, wishes, desires, pleasures, and finances. Potential for insights and answers on how to shift forward. March 29th: New Moon Partial Solar Eclipse in Aries Energetic lightswitch flickering on and off. Offering a truly new fresh start in the astrological house it occupies in your natal chart. This house has undergone a full eclipse season refresh, release, and restart (nodes in Aries/Libra July 2023 - Jan 2025). Exciting and seemingly softer than past eclipses due to prior release work. This eclipse feels like saying yes to an opportunity before feeling fully ready, with the Universe indicating readiness for growth. A "good growth" eclipse versus a painful one. March 29th: Mercury Retrograde Enters Pisces Mercury continues its retrograde journey, moving back into Pisces. Potential feeling of stagnation or moving backward when forward momentum is desired. Feels like revisiting old lessons or losing something again. Backtrack into Pisces may evoke feelings from the distant past. Not just about exes resurfacing, but a final cleanup of "ghosts of Christmases past." March 30th: Neptune Enters Aries - HUGE NEWS! Neptune spends approximately 14 years in a single zodiac sign (168-year cycle). Last time in Aries: 1861-1873. An energy signature no one alive has experienced. High vibration; Neptune as the higher octave of Venus, governing dreams, intuition, spirituality, and delusions. Capacity for cleansing, clearing, and offering massive dream and manifestation potential. Can also bring chaos and destruction for reimagining and rebuilding. Uncertainty about how this new 14-year signature will play out. Old ways are definitely up for destruction. Question: What new dream will we create? Personal impact: Focus on the house Aries occupies in your natal chart for bold new dreams. Emphasis on fresh, strong, new, and spiritually grounded dreams. Abundance flowing from imagination and magic. Call to honor ocean goddesses (and Aphrodite) if it resonates. April 7th: Mercury Stations Direct Relief from communication, schedule, and financial snags. This marks the third pass over the same ground in the last four weeks. Two-week post-shadow period as Mercury regains speed. The third pass offers the final lesson or blessing from recent events. Encouragement to stay present and grounded. Pause and take breaths before responding. Direct station in Pisces: deep feels, tears, release, and healing are prominent. April 12th: Full Moon in Libra Gratitude to the goddesses, eclipse season is over until September! A regular full moon for revealing and releasing (in that order). All clear for spellcasting! Libra focus: balance, people-pleasing, and surface beauty. Community call-out (with a nod to Kali Ma) for individual scales of Justice. April 12th: Venus Direct - WHEEE! Blessed be, Aphrodite is reborn! Stations direct in Pisces, bringing a dreamy quality. Tenderness, emotions, and tears likely herald the healing that has occurred. Tears of growth, gratitude, and honoring the inner child/teen and current soul self. This deep cleanse cycle returns "YOU" to yourself at a heart-centric level. Clarity on what is needed for more joy and abundance. April 16th: Mercury Moves into Aries (Again) The narrative continues, but with forward progress this time. Shift in communication to self-centric intentions stated clearly (possibly bluntly). Universe urging clear communication in leadership roles for self-empowerment and modeling equitable behavior. April 18th: Mars Moves into Leo - Exciting! Boost in physical energy. Inspiration and a fire are reignited. The "fill up" that has been missing. Mars (action, drive) finally in a fire sign (Leo) wired for being out front and adored. Potential for significant progress if small actions have been taken during Sun in Aries. Burning off "slow sads" - a welcome energy shift. The Nutshell Story of This Cycle Key takeaway: Take action. Follow excitement and listen to "no." Decisions won't be clear-cut; balance facts with intuition. Venus recharged, Mercury cleansed, Neptune in a new phase, Mars finally moving comfortably. Listen to your body - it holds the energetic score. Everything is changing for the ultimate best. Embrace evolution and change. "Grab the wheel" and direct the new energies. The path won't be linear, but progress will be made. Stirrings that 2025 is a "mash up of all the best parts of our life thus far" - a wild, liberating, blessed, and manifesting "zine." Supportive Practices for This Cycle Meditate Hydrate Move your body Aim for self-advocacy Aim for equity Anchor in your spirituality Pisces Season Recap & Aries Season Intentions Pisces season offered massive somatic healing potential and deep release. Aries season (Sun in Aries) marks a new beginning: rebirth of leadership, hope, potential, and the fire to ignite something wonderful. Cycle directive: Continue to remain present and focus on your vessel. Aries as the Athlete & Warrior: Prioritizing Your Vessel Aries embodies the athlete and warrior. Cannot stand for, protect, or create effectively without an optimally functioning vessel. Learning from athletes: value of repair, recovery, nutrition, and hydration. This cycle is a collective call to prioritize vessel care. Not about perfectionism, but celebration and respect for the soul's home. Caring for the body is loving and supports desired creations and actions. It's Spring! Emerge from the Underworld Emergence from the darkness may feel overwhelming initially ("too bright and too big"). It's okay to go slow ("throw on some shades"). Cannot stay in the "cave" forever. Take the step out. Evaluation phase is over. Feel the wild unknown where anything is possible Aries Basics: Mantra, Place in Zodiac, Element Aries' mantra: "I am." First sign of the zodiac. Cardinal fire sign. "I Can Do This! Let's Start Something." Aries' inherent drive to initiate. Excellent at starting things - "OFF AND RUNNING." Carries strong manifestation energy due to its "young," "new," and often "naive" energy. Prone to beginner's luck. Aries as the Warrior Wired for battle and a valuable ally. Relentless and fresh energy with "sassy salty vibes." Thrives on feedback and pressure - needs resistance. The analogy of two rams butting heads (establishing dominance, training, communication, play). Balanced vs. Imbalanced Aries In Balance: Fights to protect loved ones and the vulnerable; evolves into a benevolent leader (connection to The Emperor tarot); passionate, driven, enthusiastic, and inspiring. In Imbalance: Egocentric, puts self first; argues to win everything (even trivial matters); immature; stirs things up for the sake of it; needs feedback/pressure (workouts as a constructive outlet). Movement for Aries: Burning Off the Heat Aries energy is hot, fast, and furious and needs movement to release heat. Caution against excessive cardio, which can overheat the system. Analogy to a Jack Russell Terrier: smart, energetic, needs engagement and novelty. Think "neuro festive brains" needing stimulation and interest for focused engagement. Requires both movement and cerebral activity. Hydration and Cooling Foods for Aries Season Hydration is crucial Recommendation: half your body weight in ounces of water daily with a teaspoon of pink salt for electrolyte absorption. Importance of cooling foods: green and mint (all forms). Aries Rules the Head, Eyes, and Adrenals: Wellness Practices Connection to headache/migraine issues. Mention of Unicorn Wellness Studio member practices: headstand preps/headstands (7th chakra connection, fresh perspective), crab series/rabbit pose (playful, grounding, cooling, circulation). In Aries Season, Stop and Ask: What am I thinking but not saying? What messaging is trying to get through? What am I subconsciously blocking or pretending not to know? Wellness Bullet Points for Aries Season: Begin or prioritize a movement pattern (unicornwellnessstudio.com). PRIORITIZE hydration. Meditate (5 min frequency reset or 8 min chakra balance). Set a bedtime (7-10 hours, address FOMO). Put time limits on gaming and social media (reduces energetic "heat"). Make time to play outside in fresh air. Share thoughts and feelings with trusted humans. Increase green intake (juice, meals, mint). Lighten scents (peppermint EO, lemon/wild orange incense Additional Resources: Activate 30 - days Guest Access on UnicornWellnessStudio.com Offering 30-min classical Pilates workouts in alignment to the astrological season and lunar cycles and Tandy's 41-day food reset at this link here in preparation of the astrological new year.

Glorious Bodies: Trans Theology and Renaissance Literature (U Chicago Press, 2024) offers a prehistory of transness that recovers early modern theological resources for trans lifeworlds.  In this striking contribution to trans history, Colby Gordon challenges the prevailing assumption that trans life is a byproduct of recent medical innovation by locating a cultural imaginary of transition in the religious writing of the English Renaissance. Marking a major intervention in early modern gender studies, Glorious Bodies insists that transition happened, both socially and surgically, hundreds of years before the nineteenth-century advent of sexology.  Pairing literary texts by Shakespeare, Webster, Donne, and Milton with a broad range of primary sources, Gordon examines the religious tropes available to early modern subjects for imagining how gender could change.

Samara Weaving's firmly cemented herself as a genre icon. Thanks to The Babysitter, Ready or Not and then some, she's become one of the most trusted and exciting artists in horror. When her name popped up on yet another genre movie roster, it instantly became a highly anticipated production, and Weaving made due on that hype. Her latest, Borderline, is an outrageous and twisted delight.Marking the feature writing and directing debut of her husband, Jimmy Warden, Borderline stars Weaving as Sofia, an extremely popular 90s pop star with a dangerously obsessive fan, Paul Duerson, played to over-the-top perfection by Ray Nicholson. While Sofia often has her loyal bodyguard (Eric Dane) at her back, one night, Paul slips through the cracks, determined to carry out his grand delusion, marrying Sofia.Borderline is wonderfully bonkers in many respects, but it's also an effective edge-of-your-seat thrill because Weaving successfully crafts an anchor character who can play with the extreme while feeling just grounded enough to convey she's fighting for something real. It's a reminder that, yes, Weaving is an absolute ace in the horror genre, but she's also got the endless range to deftly handle a horror genre mash-up - and any other type of film she wants to tackle, for that matter.With Borderline now available to watch in theaters and on digital, Weaving joined me for a Collider Ladies Night interview to revisit her film professor father's early influence, to look back on her very first trip to LA and what it was like finding her place in Hollywood, and to discuss how she pushed herself in new ways in Borderline.

LinkedIn has officially opened its new campus at 4 Wilton Park, consolidating its Dublin operations into a modern, sustainable hub. This brings together LinkedIn's teams under one roof across 4 and 5 Wilton Park, with a combined footprint of 290,000 sq ft, making Dublin home to LinkedIn's largest office outside of the United States. The new campus is designed to support LinkedIn's evolving ways of working and foster collaboration among its 2,000+ employees in Ireland, who represent 60% of LinkedIn's EMEA workforce and over 70 nationalities. Speaking at the opening ceremony, An Taoiseach Micheál Martin TD said: "I'm delighted to open LinkedIn's new office at 4 Wilton Park. This expanded EMEA HQ - LinkedIn's largest office outside the US - is a strong endorsement of Ireland as a destination for global investment. "Over the past 15 years, LinkedIn Ireland has grown significantly, now employing over 2,000 people. This is a testament to Ireland's talented workforce and tech expertise." Building on this, LinkedIn CEO Ryan Roslansky added: "When we decided to put our EMEA headquarters in Dublin back in 2010, we started with three employees, and now we're more than 2,000 strong. "None of this would be possible without the support of the Irish government and the wider community. We're excited to continue shaping a brighter future of work together." Sustainability is at the core of the campus, which has been designed to operate at net-zero carbon, and is in the process of achieving LEED Platinum and WELL Platinum certifications, among the highest global standards for environmental performance and employee wellbeing.

I went to Japan to mark 12 years sober, not just to celebrate not drinking, but to embrace the freedom sobriety has given me. From flying across the country on bullet trains, trying skiing for the first time, and fully embracing 7-Eleven's elite food, this trip was all about new experiences. Sobriety has taken away the fear, and now anything feels possible. Grateful everyday.

Purim Unveiling the Hidden Wisdom of Purim: A Feast of Fools for Modern Times   As we approach the joyous holiday of Purim, it's time to look beyond the costumes and revelry to uncover the profound lessons this ancient celebration holds for our modern world. In this eye-opening episode of Madlik, we explore the surprising connections between Purim and other global festivals of excess, revealing how these celebrations can transform our perspective on joy, tragedy, and the human experience.   The Universal Language of Celebration   Did you know that Purim shares striking similarities with Mardi Gras, Carnival, and even the Indian festival of Holi? These seemingly disparate celebrations all occur around the same time of year and share common themes: • Marking the end of winter and the arrival of spring • Indulging in excess food and drink • Wearing elaborate costumes and masks • Temporarily upending social norms and hierarchies This universal impulse to celebrate and "let loose" speaks to a fundamental human need. As Harvey Cox, the esteemed Harvard theologian, argues in his seminal work "Feast of Fools," these festivals serve a crucial purpose in our lives: "Festivity is the way we cool history without fleeing from it." In other words, celebrations like Purim allow us to step back from the intensity of our daily struggles and gain a fresh perspective. They remind us that while we are part of history, we are not solely defined by it.   Rethinking Celebration in Times of Tragedy   You might be wondering: How can we justify such exuberant celebration when there's so much pain and suffering in the world? Isn't it insensitive or even irresponsible? Here's where Cox's insights offer a powerful reframe: > "Those cultures that are closer to real tragedy, brutality, chaos, failure and death, as well as triumphant compassion, are the ones whose celebrations are deeper." Counterintuitively, it's often the communities most familiar with hardship that have the richest traditions of celebration. This isn't about ignoring pain, but rather about cultivating resilience and maintaining hope in the face of adversity. For those of us grappling with how to celebrate Purim in the wake of recent tragedies, this perspective offers a path forward. Our celebrations can be an act of defiance against despair, a way of affirming life and human connection even in dark times. The Wisdom of "Vinahapechu": Embracing Contradiction One of the central themes of Purim is "vinahapechu" – the idea of things being turned upside down. We're instructed to drink until we can't distinguish between the villain Haman and the hero Mordechai. While this might seem like mere frivolity, there's profound wisdom in this practice. Cox argues that true festivity involves "juxtaposition" – the ability to hold contradictory ideas without trying to resolve them. This mirrors the Talmudic approach of embracing multiple perspectives without forcing a single conclusion. In our polarized world, where people often retreat into echo chambers of like-minded opinions, Purim's lesson of "vinahapechu" is more relevant than ever. It challenges us to: • Question our assumptions • See beyond black-and-white thinking • Find common ground with those who hold different views   Practical Ways to Embrace the Spirit of Purim   So how can we apply these insights to make our Purim celebrations more meaningful this year? 1. Reflect on resilience: As you celebrate, take a moment to acknowledge the challenges you've overcome. Let your joy be an affirmation of your strength. 2. Reach across divides: Use the holiday as an opportunity to connect with someone you might not normally interact with. The costume tradition can be a great icebreaker! 3. Embrace playfulness: Allow yourself to be silly and let go of self-importance. This "recess from history-making" can actually make you more effective when you return to serious matters. 4. Practice perspective-taking: Try to see things from a different angle, just as the "vinahapechu" tradition encourages. This can lead to creative problem-solving in other areas of life. 5. Cultivate gratitude: In the midst of celebration, take time to appreciate the good in your life and in the world around you. What We've Learned: A Call for Balance As we navigate the complexities of our modern world, the ancient wisdom of Purim offers a powerful reminder: we need both seriousness and celebration, both engagement and respite. In the words of Harvey Cox: "There is an unnecessary gap in today's world between the world changers and the life celebrators. There is no reason why those who celebrate life cannot also be committed to fundamental social change, and world changers need not be joyless and ascetic." This Purim, I challenge you to embrace both roles. Allow yourself to fully experience the joy and revelry of the holiday, knowing that this celebration can actually fuel your ability to create positive change in the world.   As you don your costume and raise your glass, remember that you're participating in a timeless tradition that connects us across cultures and generations. In doing so, you're not just celebrating a historical event – you're affirming the resilience of the human spirit and our capacity for joy, even in the face of adversity. So go forth and celebrate with intention. May your Purim be filled with laughter, connection, and the transformative power of embracing life in all its beautiful contradictions.   Sefaria Source Sheet: https://www.sefaria.org/sheets/631323 Transcript on episode web page: https://madlik.com/2025/03/12/feast-of-fools/

On Ash Wednesday we begin our forty-day journey toward Easter with a day of fasting and repentance. Marking our foreheads with dust, we acknowledge that we die and return to the earth. At the same time, the dust traces the life-giving cross indelibly marked on our foreheads at baptism. While we journey through Lent to return to God, we have already been reconciled to God through Lent to return to God through Christ. We humbly pray for God to make our hearts clean while we rejoice that “now is the day of salvation.” Returning to our baptismal call, we more intentionally bear the fruits of mercy and justice in the world. Scripture Reading: Matthew 6:1-6,16-21

Win?". The series takes a deep dive into the infamous double murder trial of O.J. Simpson; a case that was captured by Court TV cameras and helped ignite the nation's ongoing obsession with true crime. Court TV will debut new episodes of "Trial & Error: Why Did O.J. Win?" on Sunday nights at 8 p.m. ET/PT starting Feb. 16th Utilizing Court TV's extensive library, "Trial & Error: Why Did O.J. Win?" will explore what went right for the defense, what went wrong for the prosecution and the perfect storm of legal strategies and surprises that led to one of the most controversial verdicts in history.

Lee Bailey and Alan Dershowitz, LAPD Detective Mark Fuhrman, LA County and Simpson case Prosecutor Bill Hodgman, Lon Cryer (juror #6), victim Nicole Brown Simpson's sister Tanya Brown and the father and sister of victim Ron Goldman, Fred Goldman and Kim Goldman. "Trial & Error: Why Did O.J. Win?" is hosted by Michael Ayala, an attorney, Court TV anchor and Emmy-award winning true crime journalist. Court TV's Ted Rowlands serves as executive producer. Both Ayala and Rowlands covered the O.J. trial as reporters."Thirty years have gone by, and the O.J. Simpson trial - which Court TV documented as it unfolded - is still one of the nation's most consequential cultural touchstones," said Ethan Nelson, head of Court TV. "Through first-person interviews with people directly involved with the case, this series takes a provocative look into how the feverishly anticipated and deeply divisive jury verdict came to pass." Check out the trailer: Https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wd14RTe433I  "Trial & Error: Why Did O.J.

Simpson get away with murder? The double murder trial of Simpson - the college football phenom (Heisman Trophy recipient in 1968) who went on to become an NFL Hall of Famer and popular movie and television personality - riveted the nation during its nearly 10 full months in 1995. In addition to numerous dramatic courtroom moments, the trial was most notable for its strong racial overtones, its impact on the judiciary system and how it spurred Americans across the nation to openly discuss the issues surrounding domestic violence for the first time. The in-depth look at the O.J. trial 30 years later will complement a number of major cases that Court TV is closely covering in real-time, including the upcoming Arizona murder trial of "Cult Mom" Lori Vallow who is representing herself in court, the retrial of Karen Read in the killing of her boyfriend, and the trial of Bryan Kohberger, who stands accused of murdering four University of Idaho college students. MICHAEL AYALA BIO Michael Ayala, an attorney and EMMY®-Award winner, has returned to Court TV.
