We're in the midst of another election season, and yet again American democracy hangs in the balance, with a leading Presidential candidate who has threatened to suspend parts of the Constitution. How did the foundations of our political system become so shaky? Jelani Cobb, the dean of the journalism school at Columbia University; Evan Osnos, a Washington correspondent for The New Yorker; and the best-selling author and historian Jill Lepore joined The New Yorker's Michael Luo for a discussion of that very existential question during the most recent New Yorker Festival. From Cobb's perspective, “it's not that complicated,” he notes, “If we went all the way back to the fundamental dichotomy of the people who founded this country and the way they subsidized their mission of liberty with the lives of slaves. So we've always been engaged in that dialectic.” Lepore argues that people on both sides of the political divide choose to embrace an account of the past that accords with their politics, something she considers “incredibly dangerous.” Osnos, who witnessed the upheaval of January 6th firsthand, thinks the deeper problem is disengagement from the country and the political system. “I was struck by how many of [the rioters] told me it was their first trip to Washington,” Osnos says. “They came to Washington to sack the Capitol.”CORRECTION: Jelani Cobb notes that Queens was at one time the second-whitest borough of New York City, and is the most diverse county in the United States. Measures of diversity vary; in some recent data, Queens ranks third among counties

The first step is to make the broth, usually, a ramen broth has pork bones, but this one was made using beef bones I bought at a local farm. I used a variety of marrow bones and tossed them into a deep pot, with 4-5 garlic cloves smashed, a piece of ginger, a few stalks of celery, and half an onion, then covered it with about a gallon of cold water, and brought to a simmer, skimmed off the foam, then let it cook way for 4-5 hours. In the meantime, I sauteed green onion and garlic in beef tallow for a few minutes, then added a pound of grass-fed and finished ground beef and cooked that 10 minutes. Later I strained the broth into the aromatics/beef mixture followed by a package of lo mein-style wheat noodles. I cooked the noodles until they were al dente which took 4-5 minutes. It was served in a bowl with plenty of broth, topped with green onion and cilantro. Was a wonderful meal that we all enjoyed, and relatively easy to make and inexpensive. HOMESTEAD TSUNAMI: Worm farming, also known as vermicomposting, offers a myriad of benefits when it comes to producing high-quality castings and worm tea. Firstly, worm castings, the nutrient-rich waste produced by worms, are a phenomenal natural fertilizer. They are packed with beneficial microorganisms, enzymes, and nutrients that enhance soil structure, increase water-holding capacity, and improve overall soil health. The castings provide essential nutrients to plants, promoting robust growth and enhancing crop yields. On the other hand, worm tea, which is obtained by steeping worm castings in water, serves as a potent liquid fertilizer. When applied to plants, worm tea permeates the soil, infusing it with vital nutrients and boosting plant vigor. Furthermore, both worm castings and worm tea act as natural pest repellents, discouraging harmful insects, diseases, and harmful bacteria from invading plants. In essence, worm farming not only allows for sustainable waste management but also provides an organic and effective means of optimizing soil fertility and plant health. I certainly plan to employ worms to help my gardens, trees, and bushes grow fast and productive. ECONOMIC NEWS: Gold hits an all-time high, over $,130 per ounce.

Threads From The National Tapestry: Stories From The American Civil War
About this episode: By 1864, a desperate Confederacy realized it must resort to desperate measures. Measures not only confined to land battles and trying to break the Union blockade, but the procuring and use of commerce raiders which would scour the oceans to wreak havoc on the North's vast merchant marine. Anything to create economic hardship. Anything to doom Abraham Lincoln's chances for reelection. This is the story of one such raider. This is the story of the CSS Shenandoah. ----more---- Some Characters Mentioned In This Episode: James Dunwoody Bulloch Thomas Dudley Lord John Russell James Iredell Waddell William Conway Whittle For Further Reading: Sea of Gray: The Around-the-World Odyssey of the Confederate Raider Shenandoah by Tom Chaffin Subscribe to the Threads from the National Tapestry YouTube Channel here Thank you to our sponsor, The Badge Maker - proudly carrying affordable Civil War Corps Badges and other hand-made historical reproductions for reenactors, living history interpreters, and lovers of history.

"I haven't had a teacher since the fourth grade!"We talk with Kate Liemandt, known as Austin Scholar online, a high school student in Austin, Texas, who stands out for her exceptional academic performance, consistently scoring in the 99th percentile in nationwide tests despite not having a traditional teacher since fourth grade. Her secret? Online learning through adaptive educational apps vastly differs from the often ineffective "Zoom-school." Austin attends Alpha, an innovative school where students learn at their own pace using educational software, allowing them to grasp academic concepts twice as fast and consistently score in the 90th percentile.Austin's concern about the state of education in the U.S. is highlighted by the startling results of the nationwide Measures of Academic Progress (MAP) Test: 50th percent of high school graduates have similar language skills as 98th percentile second graders and similar math skills as top-performing fourth graders. This alarming trend underscores the urgent need for a systemic change in the educational system, a change Austin is determined to be a part of.You can read her newsletter HERE.
Empowered Relationship Podcast: Your Relationship Resource And Guide
The holiday season traditionally beckons gatherings with loved ones, friends, and family, often involving travel to reunite with those we haven't seen in a while. While these occasions can be overwhelmingly positive, the nuances of family and relationship dynamics often introduce challenges. In this episode, we delve into the common tendencies of complaining, comparing, and criticizing, which can disrupt the joyous spirit of gatherings. We delve into insightful strategies to pivot away from these unproductive habits, offering practical solutions for a more positive and enriching experience. By exploring the three P's—pride, pleasure, and purpose—listeners are guided on a journey toward fostering deeper connections during festive occasions, enhancing the quality of interactions with loved ones, and ultimately cultivating a path to greater happiness. Check out the transcript of this episode on Dr. Jessica Higgin's website. In this episode 5:29 The impact of holiday gatherings on our mental tendencies. 9:18 Negative thought patterns and their impact on relationships. 15:52 Applying Gottman's 5:1 ratio to strengthen connections in every relationship. 23:34 The impact of negative behaviors on relationships. 32:09 Cultivating happiness through connection and purpose. Unpacking the Three C's First, let's clarify the three C's to avoid. 1. Comparing We often find ourselves anticipating comparisons, preparing to evaluate and rank ourselves, and engaging in a subtle one-up/one-down competition. Measures of Success: Career Achievements (promotions) Health and Fitness (body weight) Financial Status Attractiveness and Beauty (aging, wrinkles, clothing, hair) Knowledge (current events, politics) Social Engagements (events attended, people met) Fun (recreational activities, trips, etc.) All these aspects contribute to an individual's sense of meaning, purpose, and pride. However, when the intention is to impress or compete to feel superior, it can lead to putting oneself above others, inadvertently diminishing their value. Antidote: Practice expressing appreciation and gratitude for oneself, aiming for a list of 10 appreciations as a countermeasure. 2. Complaining Expressing challenges is a natural way to seek attention and understanding, often as an attempt to bond with others who can relate to hardships. However, dwelling on difficulties, akin to sharing war stories, provides limited satisfaction in connecting. Antidote: Counteracting complaints involves identifying at least 10 positive aspects overlooked in the situation, fostering a more optimistic perspective. 3. Criticizing Judging someone's behavior, especially in family or friendship dynamics, can stem from underlying longings, needs, or vulnerabilities, with limited potential for change compared to romantic relationships. Antidote: If change seems unlikely, self-support involves addressing personal needs and longings through alternative means or advocating for oneself, including setting boundaries. Additionally, acknowledging 10 positive qualities or attributes the person brings to your life can help shift the focus away from criticism. The Negative Effects of the 3 C's Diminished Self-Esteem: Engaging in constant comparison and criticism can lead to feelings of inadequacy, lower self-worth, and diminished self-esteem. Strained Relationships: Continuous criticism and complaining can put strain on relationships, eroding trust, creating tension, and reducing the overall sense of safety and satisfaction. Dissatisfaction in Interactions: The repetitive nature of the 3 C's can leave interactions feeling less meaningful and satisfying, contributing to a sense of dissatisfaction. Avoidance and Disconnection: Over time, the cumulative effect of the 3 C's may lead to avoidance of certain individuals or a decrease in engagement, negatively impacting the connection in relationships. Missed Opportunities for Growth: Focusing on the negative aspects may lead to missed opportunities for personal and relational growth, hindering the exploration of positive and enriching experiences. Draining Interactions: Engaging in the 3 C's can be emotionally draining, both for oneself and others, as the emphasis on negativity outweighs the potential for positive and uplifting interactions. Empowerment and Blame Cycle: The cycle of blame, competition, and one-upmanship perpetuated by the 3 C's can create a disempowered mindset, hindering the celebration of others and fostering deeper connections. Lack of Meaning and Significance: Constant comparison and criticism may lead to a focus on surface-level attributes, overshadowing the potential for deeper connections and the meaningful aspects of relationships. The 3 P's of Happiness Now that we've explored the challenges posed by the three C's, let's shift our focus to the transformative power of the three P's. The concept of the three P's — Pride, Purpose, and Pleasure — draws inspiration from Blue Zone research, examining communities globally recognized for longevity and well-being. Here are actionable strategies aligned with the three P's to foster a balanced and fulfilling life: 1. Pride: Build Community Bonds: Connect with your community, nurturing positive relationships for a heightened sense of belonging and pride. Embrace Traditions: Celebrate cultural or community traditions to strengthen your connection to heritage and foster pride. Achieve Personal Goals: Pursue goals aligned with your values, cultivating a sense of pride and satisfaction. Share Your Successes: Acknowledge and share your accomplishments, reinforcing a positive sense of pride. 2. Purpose: Discover Your Ikigai: Explore your 'ikigai,' finding purpose at the intersection of passion, skill, societal need, and earning potential. Volunteer and Give Back: Contribute to causes aligned with your values, experiencing purpose through meaningful engagement. Set Long-Term Goals: Establish enduring goals reflecting your passions and values for a sense of purpose. Reflect on Core Values: Regularly align actions with core values, providing direction and purpose in life. 3. Pleasure: Prioritize Social Bonds: Cultivate meaningful relationships with friends and family, crucial for overall happiness. Opt for Balanced Nutrition: Enjoy a varied, nutritious diet in moderation for physical and mental well-being. Incorporate Physical Activity: Integrate joyful exercises like walking or dancing into daily routines. Practice Mindfulness: Dedicate time to mindfulness practices, enhancing the enjoyment of the present moment. Embrace Nature: Spend time outdoors, connecting with nature for increased pleasure and well-being. Cultivate Hobbies: Engage in passion-driven activities, such as art or gardening, for a more pleasurable life. By integrating these strategies, you can elevate your overall well-being, embracing the principles of Pride, Purpose, and Pleasure observed in Blue Zone communities.

Earlier this week, nearly five dozen people appeared in a courthouse outside Atlanta, Georgia to answer criminal racketeering charges brought against them by the state. The charges are related to protests against a planned paramilitary police and fire services training facility nicknamed Cop City. Georgia prosecutors have called the demonstrators “militant anarchists.” But many of those charged say they were simply attending a rally or a concert in support of the Stop Cop City movement. The protesters, their lawyers and their supporter say the government is using heavy-handed tactics to silence the movement -- and worry about the type of precedent this might set for our right to protest. Kamau Franklin, one of the leaders of the Stop Cop City movement and a lawyer himself, and Zohra Ahmed, a professor of law at the University of Georgia, join Vinita to talk about the situation, and why so many people are watching it.

Along with early defibrillation, high quality CPR with minimal interruptions is one of the two factors that has been shown to improve cardiac arrest outcomes. How do we know if high quality, effective CPR is being performed? Objective measures of high-quality CPR include: Compression rate; Compression depth & recoil; ETCO2; and Chest Compression Fraction (CCF). The role of the CPR coach position on the code team.The advantages and use of real-time feedback devices to monitor the rate, depth, and chest recoil of CPR compressions. The use of end tidal waveform capnography. A no-tech way to monitor effective CPR if no compression feedback device or ETCO2 capnography isn't available.Connect with me:Website: https://passacls.com@PassACLS on Twitter@Pass-ACLS-Podcast on LinkedInGive back & support the show:via PayPal Good luck with your ACLS class!10 Halloween Poisoning Prevention Tips from Ohio Pharmacist, Kim Newlove of The Pharmacists Voice Podcast.
In this episode, we speak to Christian Baden, Christian Pipal, and Mariken van der Velden about their 2022 journal paper in Communications Methods and Measures, titled, “Three Gaps in Computational Text Analysis Methods for Social Sciences: A Research Agenda”. They co-authored this paper with Martijn Schoonvelde, and the authors span several disciplines, from communication to political science. We discuss the challenges and joys of writing for a cross-disciplinary audience, how their frustrations with the validity of computational methods are shared across fields with different methodological conventions, and how this paper laid the groundwork for a larger project on European political text analysis.

Acknowledging a problem is the first step. The second is developing a strategy to defeat the problem. The last, and most important is having the will to see it through. Our current crop of installed mouthpieces that pass for "leaders" are just simply weak clucking hens that always choose to do the bare minimum and appear as though they are tackling our problems rather than do it for real. Doing it for real requires that will and courage to make timely, firm decisions. They don't have it, so it doesn't get done, and we suffer for it. Stop supporting weak people that can't even play act like they're looking out for you, and instead invest that time and energy into yourself.
In all the work that I do within the arena of metabolic healthcare and education, I always stress the importance of a comprehensive approach.

Even if you only eat twinkies.” - Dr. Alo“One of the biggest things I see with patients is they have diet culture trauma that has been there for a very long time, that's very difficult to overcome. They're afraid of food and haven't been given the tools to deal with that properly. So mindset when it comes to food is absolutely the number one step.” - Dr. Alo“We have unbelievable tools now that work, like Ozempic, and even at the lowest, microscopic doses, they're amazing. I think there's a lot we're still learning about these medications, and I'm not saying it's a cheat code or it's magic, but it is a tool we can use.” - Dr. AloAudio Stamps03:06 - Dr. Alo introduces himself and shares some of his achievements and current involvements11:06 - Dr. Alo shares the weight loss milestones that he looks for for noticeable improvement in quality of life12:20 - Dr. Alo shares his biggest preventative health tips for longevity in cardiovascular health20:33 - Dr. Alo explains the preventative health benefits of GLP 1s26:08 - Dr. Alo discusses exercise and shares his process for goal-setting within this arena for those who deal with obesityAll of the information on this podcast is for general informational purposes only.
