It's the Friday News Roundup. Today we're digging into Mayor Cherelle Parker's budget proposal – including her plans to eliminate free rides for low-income Philadelphians, build thousands of housing units, and cut a tax on businesses. We also wonder why the Portal art installation keeps getting vandalized and where it should be moved to keep it safer. And we talk about two Philebrities – Will Smith, the entertainer who got a street named after him, and Skinny Joe Merlino, the former mob boss opening a cheesesteak spot.  Our Friday news roundups are powered by great local journalism:  NIH terminates three Penn research grants, citing incompatibility with ‘agency priorities' Jameson says Penn researchers received ‘stop work orders' after $175 million federal funding freeze Pa. food banks are facing millions in federal funding cuts as they fear increased need 'Skinny Joey' Merlino to open cheesesteak shop in South Philadelphia 'A reckless dismantling': EPA employees and supporters march in Philly to protest cuts Mayor Parker wants to defund a program that provides free transit passes for low-income people Federal cuts, staffing struggles, homeless services: Philly City Council probes Mayor Parker's $6.7B budget proposal Where should the Portal go?

Nicolás Fernández, Publisher Manager de Evolution Group, nos presenta hoy la herramienta Merlino. Sobre este software, el invitado nos cuenta que “el objetivo de Merlino es crear una herramienta generativa de IA de vídeo”. Desde Evolution Group nos explican que “la herramienta lo que hace es coger el enlace de una noticia y en pocos minutos lo convierte en contenido multiplataforma y con un amplío abanico de customización de los mismos”. Para el éxito de este tipo de herramientas ha sido clave, nos dice, que “Google le haya querido dar mucha importancia al vídeo en los motores de búsqueda”. Esto tiene un problema: “muchas de las redacciones no tienen el tiempo suficiente para producir contenidos para satisfacer las necesidades de la industria”. Para solucionar esto, ha llegado Merlino.

If you scratch the surface of compulsive sexual behavior, you'll find intimacy avoidance. In this powerful episode, Susskind and Merlino look through the lens of attachment as they discuss the challenges and opportunities related to truly receiving love in recovery. With a focus on avoidant and anxious attachment styles they discuss the often-misunderstood term love addiction as well as the possibility of utilizing obsessive thinking to reveal deeper parts of self. By establishing emotionally reliable relationships and receiving love, the ruptures of the past will heal over time. Music credit: Neil Freebern Freebernmusic.com

Joey Merlino, known as "Skinny Joey," rose to power as the flamboyant boss of the Philadelphia Mafia, embracing the spotlight unlike traditional mobsters who operated in the shadows. Born into a mafia family, Merlino navigated his way through violent mob wars in the 1990s, ultimately claiming control of the Philadelphia crime family. His charisma and public persona made him a media darling, but it also drew intense scrutiny from law enforcement. Despite multiple trials and prison sentences for racketeering and extortion, Merlino continued to thrive, even opening a restaurant in Florida upon his release. While he claims to be retired, suspicions linger about his continued involvement in organized crime, cementing his enigmatic legacy as a modern-day mob figure who has consistently defied the odds.(commercial at 9:44)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

The Philadelphia Mafia, or Philly Mob, has a violent and complex history marked by power struggles, brutal leadership changes, and its enduring presence in organized crime. It began with Salvatore Sabella in the early 1900s, flourished under the diplomatic rule of Angelo "The Gentle Don" Bruno, and descended into chaos and bloodshed during Nicodemo "Little Nicky" Scarfo's reign in the 1980s. After Scarfo's downfall, a violent mob war ensued between John Stanfa and Joey "Skinny Joey" Merlino, with Merlino emerging victorious and modernizing the family's operations. Though its influence has waned, the Philly Mob continues to operate quietly today, adapting to a lower-profile approach while maintaining a foothold in illegal activities like gambling and loansharking. Despite federal scrutiny and internal strife, the family has managed to survive and remains a significant part of America's organized crime legacy.(commercial at 8:03)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

This month, Mark talks with F. Joseph Merlino about the work he has done using grants from the National Science Foundation to reform math and science education. They talk about his work in Egypt overhauling their whole education system, working with the decision-makers to identify their biggest challenges and then how they can design school around preparing students to solve those big problems. They talk in particular about the success of the government-funded STEM schools and the role that modelers played in training the educators. They talk about formative assessment, and how it is not only for the benefit of the teacher, but also the New Era-New Urgency: the Case for Repurposing Education. They talk about the purpose for education or for teaching the particular things we teach, and the "shadows" that every teacher or reform person must confront even before walking into a school. Guests F. Joseph Merlino F. Joseph Merlino's academic background is in chemical engineering and cognitive developmental psychology. He is the president of the 21st Century Partnership for STEM Education (17 years). He has been a PI and project director of numerous large-scale NSF, IES, and USAID projects, including a Targeted Math Science Partnership involving 45 school districts and 13 colleges and universities. For the past 12 years, he has been directing a STEM project for the Egyptian Ministry of Education establishing 21 New STEM high schools and new STEM teacher prep programs in 5 Egyptian universities. He has employed many modelers as consultants on these projects. He is co-author of a new book entitled NEW ERA-NEW URGENCY: The Case for Repurposing Education by Lexington Books (2024) Highlights [4:47] F Joseph Merlino "Actually, this idea that physics instruction and science instruction could be different, goes back to the 1880s." [17:01] F Joseph Merlino "we had to use the assessments as a foot in the door as a way to open the door to then introduce a different pedagogical approach." [24:06] F Joseph Merlino "the idea of the formative assessment that we talk about is that if you're cooking something, for example, if you're cooking, a dish, a stew, for example, you sample it along the way, and then you add ingredients as you need in order to suit it to the taste."

Host Cyrus Webb welcomes F. Joseph Merlino and Deborah Pomeroy to Conversations LIVE to discuss their new book NEW ERA, NEW URGENCY. 

Well, they blew up the Chicken Man in Philly last night. And they blew up his house too. And the racket boys, they really did have a fight...a brutal one that lasted decades and saw Skinny Joey Merlino come out on top. He's not just America's next top crime podcaster and patreon star, he's also the one-time boss of the Philadelphia mafia and (allegedly!) still the don of Philly, if you believe the feds. Merlino, though, is no joke. Surviving by the skin of his teeth and dodging multiple assassinations in the 80's and 90's, he went from the son of shunned one-time underboss Chuckie Merlino to the top position when him and his crew of young gunners took on all comers.

Today's Topics: 1) Gospel - John 8:51-59 - Jesus said to the Jews: "Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever keeps My word will never see death." So the Jews said to Him, "Now we are sure that You are possessed. Abraham died, as did the prophets, yet You say, 'Whoever keeps My word will never taste death.' Are You greater than our father Abraham, who died? Or the prophets, who died? Who do You make Yourself out to be?" Jesus answered, "If I glorify Myself, My glory is worth nothing; but it is My Father Who glorifies me, of Whom you say, 'He is our God.' You do not know Him, but I know Him. And if I should say that I do not know Him, I would be like you a liar. But I do know Him and I keep His word. Abraham your father rejoiced to see My day; he saw it and was glad." So the Jews said to Him, "You are not yet fifty years old and You have seen Abraham?" Jesus said to them, "Amen, amen, I say to you, before Abraham came to be, I AM." So they picked up stones to throw at Him; but Jesus hid and went out of the temple area.
