C'est une des plus belles images de la cérémonie d'ouverture des Jeux Olympiques de Paris 2024 : un cheval métallique galopant dans la nuit, sur la Seine, avec une cavalière mystérieuse. Où se trouve désormais ce cheval ? Qui l'a conçu et avec quelles technologies? Le Muam, le musée des Arts et métiers a offert une conférence gratuite à l'occasion des jeudi du Cnam (le Conservatoire des Arts et Métiers). Pietro et moi étions à cette conférence jeudi dernier, à Paris, dans le 3e arrondissement. Nous avons pu écouter Karine Alexandrian, la responsable de la collection technique du musée, Aurélien Meyer le fondateur de l'Atelier Blam (l'entreprise qui a conçu le cheval) et Théo Bechtold l'un des ingénieurs concepteurs du cheval. Il y a beaucoup de conférences à Paris. N'hésitez pas à relever le défi en vous inscrivant lors de votre prochaine visite. Curiosité, culture et nouvelles obsessions sont les thèmes du podcast, destiné aux apprenants de français, mais aussi des Lettres parisiennes qui complètent l'expérience du podcast.

Today I am happy to speak with Ananya Roy and Veronika Zablotsky about their co-edited volume, Beyond Sanctuary: The Humanism of a World in Motion, which was based on a Sawyer Seminar they convened at UCLA. The essays collected in this book are international in scope and interdisciplinary in nature. What links them is a commitment to show that the idea of sanctuary all too often forgets its radical histories and possibilities, and lapses into a liberal humanism that not only does not solve the problems of refugees, migrants, and exiles, but even form obstacles to real and just solutions. Importantly, the many of the essays put the idea of “humanism” into question. Most impressively, we find case histories of ordinary people building sanctuary spaces organically well outside, and even in defiance of, liberal sanctuary structures and practices. The book is accompanied by digital materials on the Sanctuary Spaces website which are designed for classroom use and self-study: https://challengeinequality.luskin.ucla.edu/sanctuary-spaces/ Ananya Roy is Professor of Urban Planning, Social Welfare, and Geography and the Meyer and Renee Luskin Chair in Inequality and Democracy at the University of California, Los Angeles. She is the founding Faculty Director of the UCLA Luskin Institute on Inequality and Democracy at UCLA, which advances research and scholarship concerned with displacement and dispossession in Los Angeles and elsewhere in the world. Working with social movements, the Institute seeks to build power and abolish structures of inequality, within and beyond the university. A scholar of global racial capitalism, Ananya's research has focused on urban transformations and land grabs, global circuits of financialization, postcolonial development and projects of poverty management, and most recently the problem and promise of sanctuary. In comradeship with unhoused communities, her current research is concerned with racial banishment and counter-geographies of refusal and rebellion in Los Angeles.Veronika Zablotsky is a political theorist with an interest in interconnected histories of migration and empire; feminist and postcolonial studies; transnational social movements; Armenian diaspora studies; and postsocialism in the SWANA region. She teaches in the Department of Philosophy at Freie Universität Berlin and held visiting professorships in politics and gender studies at universities in Germany. Previously she served as Andrew W. Mellon Postdoctoral Fellow in the Sawyer Seminar “Sanctuary Spaces: Reworlding Humanism” at the UCLA Luskin Institute on Inequality and Democracy. She holds a PhD in feminist studies, politics, critical race and ethnic studies, and history of consciousness from the University of California, Santa Cruz. Among her co-edited publications are the anthologies Decolonize the City! (Unrast, 2017) and Transforming Solidarities (Adocs, 2025). At the University of Pennsylvania she co-founded the Critical Armenian Studies Collective. She also organizes with the scholar activist collective Abolition Beyond Borders (www.abolitionismus.org).

One of today's stories was a request sent in by a listener who was curious to know what happened to their childhood babysitter. The second case is making local headlines for offering a local council chair to a murderer. So let's get into 2026 with the same damn stories, the same damn outrage and the same damn themes. Teenage girls, disposed of like trash, their killers usually facing the smallest of consequences.

American Institute of CPAs - Personal Financial Planning (PFP)
Busy season does not have to define a CPA's entire year. In this episode of the AICPA Personal Financial Planning Podcast, Cary Sinnett sits down with Deb Meyer, CPA and founder of WorthyNest, to discuss her path from tax compliance to integrated financial planning. Deb shares why she merged her CPA firm and RIA, how advisory services changed her client relationships, and what CPAs should realistically expect when adding financial planning to their practice. The conversation covers leadership, delegation, client trust, pricing evolution, and the personal motivations behind making the shift. This episode is a must-listen for CPAs exploring advisory services and looking to create more sustainable, value-driven practices. Podcast episode takeaways: Advisory integration improves both efficiency and client experience. Bringing tax, accounting, and financial planning under one roof reduces friction, streamlines workflows, and allows CPAs to serve clients more holistically rather than in disconnected silos. Client transitions require patience and proactive engagement. Clients rarely move from tax compliance to full financial planning overnight. Trust is built over time, especially when CPAs shift from transactional work to year-round planning conversations. The move into planning is as personal as it is technical. Successful expansion into advisory services requires clarity around motivation, willingness to delegate, and acceptance that financial planning redistributes work throughout the year rather than reducing it outright.

Welcome to ALIVE, our Sunday Gospel preparation series with Fr. Meyer. ALIVE follows the Sunday Gospel each week and is designed to help you slow down, reflect, and truly encounter Christ through Scripture. Each reflection is paired with discussion questions to help spark meaningful conversation and prayer. This week's Gospel (Matthew 3:13–17) brings us to the Baptism of the Lord, where the Father proclaims: “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased.” In this reflection, Fr. Meyer invites us to reflect on the beauty of the Trinity — Father, Son, and Holy Spirit — and to hear those same words spoken over us through our own baptism. You are not defined by your worst moments or your struggles. You are God's beloved son. You are God's beloved daughter. We encourage you to journey through ALIVE with at least one other person — a spouse, friend, neighbor, or small group — and to walk together in faith each week.

On this episode of America At Night with McGraw, NewsNation White House Correspondent Kellie Meyer joins the show to break down her frontline reporting from Washington and the campaign trail. Meyer discusses pressing the Trump administration on its Venezuela strategy, including direct questions about military threats and the long-term “end game.” She also shares insights from Trump rallies in battleground states, voter concerns over the economy and rising prices, immigration enforcement at the southern border, and Trump's 2026 agenda outlined in his address to the nation—all while explaining her approach to asking tough, accountability-driven questions. The conversation then turns to the January 6 anniversary with Nick Searcy, actor and producer of the documentary “The War on Truth.” Searcy discusses the film's central claims, media narratives surrounding January 6, and why he believes the public has not been given the full picture of what happened before and after that day. Finally, author Amanda Vaill brings a historical lens to the program, discussing her book “Pride and Pleasure: The Schuyler Sisters in the Age of Revolution.” Vaill explores the real lives of the Schuyler sisters, their influence during the Revolutionary era, and how Hamilton sparked renewed interest in overlooked women who helped shape American history.

We hope everyone had a Merry Christmas last week, and looks ahead with hope for improved conditions for the new year. To get in right frame of mind, what better than to drop back into this special edition around Christmastime 2022, when we drop in on quite an experience for Overdrive Executive Editor Alex Lockie out at the Danbury, Connecticut, stop on the Wreaths Across America convoy tour from Maine down to Arlington National Cemetery for the big central wreath-laying event. As with this year's Wreaths event, it was but one among thousands around the country at veterans' cemeteries designed to pay respect to those who've served the nation. Lockie there in 2022 met Hampton Roads Moving and Storage owner-operator Steven Meyer and his 1998 Freightliner FLD, pulling a custom wrapped Kentucky trailer of his own design and dedicated to honoring distinct individuals. Together, through Meyer's narration their histories chart a story of achievement, of sacrifice, and ultimately of elemental things about human nature. For both men in the moment, the story delivers a measure of hope for the future of humanity. Read Lockie's 2022 reporting from the event via this link: https://www.overdriveonline.com/channel-19/article/15304350/what-wreaths-across-america-means-to-trucking-and-all-of-us
Send us a textIf you're listening in real time, Merry Christmas, my dear friends.I'm sending you so much love, safety, and calm this season. This week, I introduce you to a Maester who has profoundly shaped how I think about attention, discipline, peace, and the body: Cal Newport. This is not fluffy productivity advice.This is about unfinished tasks, hidden stress, and how scattered attention quietly drains our energy—and often shows up as urges we don't fully understand.In this episode, I explore why attention isn't just a productivity issue—it's a wellness issue. We talk about deep work, the modern attention crisis, digital minimalism, and what it means to build a life rooted in presence instead of reaction. If you've ever ended the day feeling busy but behind,If your mind feels fragmented,If you crave calm, clarity, and follow-through—This episode is for you. Because where your attention lives… your life follows.

If you've taught or attended a high school course in the last decade, you've probably watched a Crash Course video. Their dozens of playlists on topics from Biology and Environmental Science to Economics and World History hold hundreds of videos and have collected over 2 billion views. Maybe even just hearing the title conjured John Green's urgent cadence and the characteristic cartoon aesthetic in your mind, or the show's outro, if you couldn't hit the pause button fast enough, where John thanks the producer, the graphics team, and mentions, “The show is written by my high school history teacher, Raoul Meyer…”Today, Mister Meyer not only continues to teach, but earlier this year reached out to me about a new film project he's working on with his brother Luke, scheduled for 2026 release, tentatively titled THE TEACHERS PROJECT. It's described as “a compelling, character-driven journey into the lives of American educators as they navigate the intensifying culture war that has enveloped the nation's schools since 2020. As political battles over sanctioned ideas, books, and lesson plans range from national headlines to local school boards, the film reveals the devastating consequences of this chaos and conflict for teachers, students, communities, and the future of American education.”And Raoul joins me to talk about Crash Course, the state of history teaching and the often untold stories of teachers wrestling with all of it.@mistermeyer on BlueSky

It lacks the quaint-town Colonialism and Revolutionary pride of the self-satisfied East, the cowboy wildness and adobe earthiness of the West, the defiant resentment of the Lost Glory South. Our seventh-grade Michigan History class stapled together the state's timeline mostly as a series of French explorers passing through on their way to somewhere more interesting. They were followed by a wave of industrial loggers who mowed the primeval forests into pancakes. Then the factories showed up. And so the state's legacy was framed not as one of political or cultural or military primacy, but of brand, the place that stamped out Chevys and Fords by the tens of millions.To understand the Midwest, then, we must look for what's permanent. The land itself won't do. It's mostly soil, mostly flat. Great for farming, bad for vistas. Dirt doesn't speak to the soul like rock, like mountains. What humans built doesn't tell us a much better story. Everything in the Midwest feels too new to conceal ghosts. The largest cities rose late, were destroyed in turn by fires and freeways, eventually recharged with arenas and glass-walled buildings that fail to echo or honor the past. Nothing lasts: the Detroit Pistons built the Palace of Auburn Hills in 1988 and developers demolished it 32 years later; the Detroit Lions (and, for a time, the Pistons) played at the Pontiac Silverdome, a titanic, 82,600-spectator stadium that opened in 1976 and came down in 2013 (37 years old). History seemed to bypass the region, corralling the major wars to the east and shooing the natural disasters to the west and south. Even shipwrecks lose their doubloons-and-antique-cannons romance in the Midwest: the Great Lakes most famous downed vessel, the SS Edmund Fitzgerald, sank into Lake Superior in 1975. Her cargo was 26,535 tons of taconite ore pellets. A sad story, but not exactly the sinking of the Titanic.Our Midwest ancestors did leave us one legacy that no one has yet demolished: names. Place names are perhaps the best cultural relics of the various peoples who occupied this land since the glaciers retreated 12,000-ish years ago. Thousands of Midwest cities, towns, and counties carry Native American names. “Michigan” is derived from the Algonquin “Mishigamaw,” meaning “big lake”; “Minnesota” from the Sioux word meaning “cloudy water.” The legacies of French explorers and missionaries live on in “Detroit” (French for “strait”), “Marquette” (17th century French missionary Jacques Marquette), and “Eau Claire” (“clear water”).But one global immigration funnel dominated what became the modern Midwest: 50 percent of Wisconsin's population descends from German, Nordic, or Scandinavian countries, who arrived in waves from the Colonial era through the early 1900s. The surnames are everywhere: Schmitz and Meyer and Webber and Schultz and Olson and Hanson. But these Old-Worlders came a bit late to name the cities and towns. So they named what they built instead. And they built a lot of ski areas. Ten of Wisconsin's 34 ski areas carry names evocative of Europe's cold regions, Scandinavia and the Alps:I wonder what it must have been like, in 18-something-or-other, to leave a place where the Alps stood high on the horizon, where your family had lived in the same stone house for centuries, and sail for God knows how many weeks or months across an ocean, and slow roll overland by oxen cart or whatever they moved about in back then, and at the end of this great journey find yourself in… Wisconsin? They would have likely been unprepared for the landscape aesthetic. Tourism is a modern invention. “The elite of ancient Egypt spent their fortunes building pyramids and having their corpses mummified, but none of them thought of going shopping in Babylon or taking a skiing holiday in Phoenicia [partly in present-day Lebanon, which is home to as many as seven ski areas],” Yuval Noah Harari writes in Sapiens his 2015 “brief history of humankind.” Imagine old Friedrich, who had never left Bavaria, reconstituting his world in the hillocks and flats of the Midwest.Nothing against Wisconsin, but fast-forward 200 years, when the robots can give us a side-by-side of the upper Midwest and the European Alps, and it's pretty clear why one is a global tourist destination and the other is known mostly as a place that makes a lot of cheese. And well you can imagine why Friedrich might want to summon a little bit of the old country to the texture of his life in the form of a ski area name. That these two worlds - the glorious Alps and humble Wisconsin skiing - overlap, even in a handful of place names, suggests a yearning for a life abandoned, a natural act of pining by a species that was not built to move their life across timezones.This is not a perfect analysis. Most – perhaps none – of these ski areas was founded by actual immigrants, but by their descendants. The Germanic languages spoken by these immigrant waves did not survive assimilation. But these little cultural tokens did. The aura of ancestral place endured when even language fell away. These little ski areas honor that.And by injecting grandiosity into the everyday, they do something else. In coloring some of the world's most compact ski centers with the aura of some of its most iconic, their founders left us a message: these ski areas, humble as they are, matter. They fuse us to the past and they fuse us to the majesty of the up-high, prove to us that skiing is worth doing anywhere that it can be done, ensure that the ability to move like that and to feel the things that movement makes you feel are not exclusive realms fenced into the clouds, somewhere beyond means and imagination.Which brings us to Grand Geneva, a ski area name that evokes the great Swiss gateway city to the Alps. Too bad reality rarely matches up with the easiest narrative. The resort draws its name from the nearby town of Lake Geneva, which a 19th-century surveyor named not after the Swiss city, but after Geneva, New York, a city (that is apparently named after Geneva, Switzerland), on the shores of Seneca Lake, the largest of the state's 11 finger lakes. Regardless, the lofty name was the fifth choice for a ski area originally called “Indian Knob.” That lasted three years, until the ski area shuttered and re-opened as the venerable Playboy Ski Area in 1968. More regrettable names followed – Americana Resort from 1982 to '93, Hotdog Mountain from 1992 to '94 – before going with the most obvious and least-questionable name, though its official moniker, “The Mountaintop at Grand Geneva” is one of the more awkward names in American skiing.None of which explains the principal question of this sector: why I interviewed Mr. Brown. Well, I skied a bunch of Milwaukee bumps on my drive up to Bohemia from Chicago last year, this was one of them, and I thought it was a cute little place. I also wondered how, with its small-even-for-Wisconsin vertical drop and antique lift collection, the place had endured in a state littered with abandoned ski areas. Consider it another entry into my ongoing investigation into why the ski areas that you would not always expect to make it are often the ones that do.What we talked aboutFighting the backyard effect – “our customer base – they don't really know” that the ski areas are making snow; a Chicago-Milwaukee-Madison bullseye; competing against the Vail-owned mountain to the south and the high-speed-laced ski area to the north; a golf resort with a ski area tacked on; “you don't need a big hill to have a great park”; brutal Midwest winters and the escape of skiing; I attempt to talk about golf again and we're probably done with that for a while; Boyne Resorts as a “top golf destination”; why Grand Geneva moved its terrain park; whether the backside park could re-open; “we've got some major snowmaking in the works”; potential lift upgrades; no bars on the lifts; the ever-tradeoff between terrain parks and beginner terrain; the ski area's history as a Playboy Club and how the ski hill survived into the modern era; how the resort moves skiers to the hill with hundreds of rooms and none of them on the trails; thoughts on Indy Pass; and Lake Geneva lake life.What I got wrongWe recorded this conversation prior to Sunburst's joining Indy Pass, so I didn't mention the resort when discussing Wisconsin ski areas on the product.Podcast NotesOn the worst season in the history of the MidwestI just covered this in the article that accompanied the podcast on Treetops, Michigan, but I'll summarize it this way: the 2023-24 ski season almost broke the Midwest. Fortunately, last winter was better, and this year is off to a banging start.On steep terrain beneath lift AI just thought this was a really unexpected and cool angle for such a little hill. On the Playboy ClubFrom SKI magazine, December 1969:It is always interesting when giants merge. Last winter Playboy magazine (5.5 million readers) and the Playboy Club (19 swinging nightclubs from Hawaii to New York to Jamaica, with 100,000 card-carrying members) in effect joined the sport of skiing, which is also a large, but less formal, structure of 3.5 million lift-ticket-carrying members. The resulting conglomerate was the Lake Geneva Playboy Club-Hotel, Playboy's ski resort on the rolling plains of Wisconsin.The Playboy Club people must have borrowed the idea of their costumed Bunny Waitress from the snow bunny of skiing fame, and since Playboy and skiing both manifestly devote themselves to the pleasures of the body, some sort of merger was inevitable. Out of this union, obviously, issued the Ultimate Ski Bunny – one able to ski as well as sport the scanty Bunny costume to lustrous perfection.That's a bit different from how the resort positions its ski facilities today:Enjoy southern Wisconsin's gem - our skiing and snow resort in the countryside of Lake Geneva, with the best ski hills in Wisconsin. The Mountain Top at Grand Geneva Resort & Spa boasts 20 downhill ski runs and terrain designed for all ages, groups and abilities, making us one of the best ski resorts in Wisconsin.

Base acres are the foundation of Farm Bill commodity payments, but in Nebraska they don't always line up with what farmers are planting today. In this episode, economists with the University of Nebraska–Lincoln's Center for Agricultural Profitability break down how base acres were created, why gaps have emerged between base acres and planting decisions, and what that means for producers and landowners across the state.Jessica Groskopf, Cory Walters, and Anastasia Meyer discuss how incentives shaped past base acre decisions, how risk and payments vary across Nebraska, and what producers should be thinking about as new base acres may become available beginning with the 2026 crop year. The conversation also looks at how base acres fit within a broader risk management strategy that includes crop insurance, farm programs, and marketing decisions.Read more at https://cap.unl.edu/news/base-acres-explained-how-they-compare-planting-nebraska-farms/

The Space Show Presents BRYCE MEYER, Tuesday, Dec. 9, 2025Quick SummaryWe initially focused on our Space Show program featuring Bryce Meyer discussing his upcoming book on space agriculture, which explores technologies and principles for growing food in space environments. The discussion covered various challenges of space farming, including plant adaptation, soil biomes, and the need for further research on growing crops to maturity in microgravity conditions. The conversation concluded with an examination of agricultural techniques for space colonization, including the use of bioreactors, mushrooms, and various animals for food production, while emphasizing the importance of certifying existing technology and addressing biological questions related to plants in different gravity regimes.Detailed SummaryDavid hosted a Space Show program featuring Bryce Meyer, who discussed his new book “Designing Farms in Space” scheduled for release on January 2nd by Springer Publishing. The book aims to provide a comprehensive guide on technologies and principles for space agriculture, covering topics from biochemistry to farm system calculations. David announced upcoming programs for the month, including guests Manuel Cuba, Isaac Arthur, and Michael Lissner, and reminded listeners of their annual fundraising campaign. Former NASA Administrator Dr. Mike Griffin with be with us Tuesday evening, Dec. 23.Bryce and David discussed the challenges and unknowns of growing plants in space, emphasizing the need to adapt Earth technologies while accounting for microgravity, different gravitational forces, and radiation. Bryce highlighted the lack of data on growing crops to maturity in space and the need for experiments to understand plant responses in these environments. They also touched on the potential impact of the space environment on plants, including chemical emissions from the structure and unknown factors like the moon's magnetic field. David humorously asked about plant consciousness, but Bryce focused on the practical challenges and the importance of further research.Marshall and Bryce discussed the adaptability of plants and the importance of a living soil biome for crop productivity. Bryce explained that while plants are highly adaptive, certain crop strains are specifically optimized for certain conditions. They explored the concept of transforming simulated lunar soil into a living soil biome, with Bryce mentioning research by Adam Williams on using red worms and manure to achieve this. Bryce also described the spectrum of growing methods from aeroponics to soil-based systems, highlighting the benefits of a full soil biome for plant resilience and nutrient availability.Bryce discussed the development of space farming and agriculture, noting that while significant progress has been made, such as China's 360-day closed-loop system with a crew of eight, there are still challenges. He suggested that dietary diversity and the inclusion of animals in the system could improve outcomes, as monotony and inadequate nutrition could lead to weight loss and decreased productivity. John Jossy and David explored the possibility of cultured meat in space, with Bryce warning about the risks of contamination in bioreactors, while suggesting tofu and other resilient crops as viable alternatives.Bryce continued discussing various animals and plants suitable for space agriculture, including chickens, goats, mealworms, and plants for pharmaceuticals. He explained the challenges of shipping animals, particularly mammals, due to their sensitivity during long space journeys. Bryce also highlighted the existing market for vertical farming technologies, which could be adapted for space agriculture, and mentioned the need to test these technologies in different gravity conditions.Our guest talked with us about the evolutionary model for Space Farms and emphasized the importance of adapting agricultural solutions to different settlement types. He noted that while China is ahead in some areas, the U.S. has made significant advancements in bioreactor technology. Bryce outlined a sequence for growing food on Mars, starting with salad greens, followed by high-value crops like peanuts and soybeans, and eventually tree crops like citrus. He also suggested growing strawberries and melons, as well as using aquaponics to cultivate shrimp for protein. The Wisdom Team discussed the potential of using crickets for protein, but Bryce suggested focusing on shrimp instead due to the “ick factor” that could deter settlers.The group discussed the challenges of growing food for children in space, focusing on nutritional needs and the impact of gravity on plant growth. Bryce explained that children require a more diverse amino acid profile and different fat content than adults, suggesting the need for animal or yeast-developed crops. They also touched on the importance of controlling environmental factors like light and CO2 levels for optimal plant growth. The conversation concluded with a discussion on the potential use of LED lights and the need for different growing strategies depending on the location, such as using lava tubes on the Moon or natural sunlight on Mars.Bryce mentioned different agricultural regimes for rotating habitats and the importance of energy calculations in determining the type of lighting used. He explained the processing steps needed to convert raw crops into edible foods, including the use of storage tanks and various storage mechanisms like vacuum packing. Our guest highlighted the role of spices in space agriculture and the challenges of growing certain spices like cinnamon. David inquired about the viability of Mars One's agricultural plan, and Bryce suggested that AI and augmented reality could be used to assist with maintenance and troubleshooting in space habitats without the need for excessive volunteers and labor.The Mars One topic led to a discussion about the labor requirements for farming, noting that while some tasks could be robotically assisted, people would likely be eager to participate in gardening activities. He shared personal anecdotes about his grandmother's farm management and suggested that future farms would need designated farm bosses to oversee operations. Marshall inquired about the maximum population density for efficient space farming, to which Bryce responded that current Earth-based farming supports 8 people per acre, while vertical farming could potentially accommodate 20 people per hectare. The conversation concluded with a discussion about the benefits of mushrooms in farming, particularly their ability to break down lignin in plant waste and their role in managing CO2 and oxygen cycles in closed-loop systems.Bryce continued by talking about agricultural techniques for space colonization, including the use of bioreactors, mushrooms, and various animals for food production. He explained the progression of animal farming in space, starting with birds and rabbits before moving to larger mammals like cows. Bryce also covered the potential use of genetically modified bacteria and lab-grown meat as backup food sources. The discussion touched on the practicality of these methods in space habitats like O'Neill colonies and long-duration space vehicles, considering factors such as radiation, contamination risks, and the efficiency of current agricultural technologies compared to those in the 1970s and 1980s.The challenges and benefits of rotating habitats for plant growth in space, emphasizing that they might be better than growing in lower gravity environments was one of our later topics. Phil inquired about the feasibility of a large-scale, long-duration experiment like Biosphere 2, to which Bryce responded that similar experiments have already been conducted by China and that a larger, more diverse structure like Biosphere 2 would be beneficial. The team touched on the potential ethical concerns surrounding the manipulation of life in space, including animal rights and dietary restrictions based on religious beliefs. Bryce suggested that vegetarian or vegan diets might be more feasible in the early stages of space settlement, as it could take several years to establish a self-sustaining food supply on Mars.Bryce concluded by talking about the need for further studies on space agriculture, emphasizing the importance of certifying existing technology in space and addressing biological questions related to plants in different gravity regimes. He highlighted the potential for large-scale plant testing in rotating settlements or on the moon within the next five to six years, as China is already planning to send plants to the moon. Bryce expressed hope that SpaceX and other experts would collaborate on these efforts, noting that the technology needed is already available. The discussion concluded with a reflection on ethical considerations in food production and consumption.Special thanks to our sponsors:Northrup Grumman, American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Helix Space in Luxembourg, Celestis Memorial Spaceflights, Astrox Corporation, Dr. Haym Benaroya of Rutgers University, The Space Settlement Progress Blog by John Jossy, The Atlantis Project, and Artless EntertainmentOur Toll Free Line for Live Broadcasts: 1-866-687-7223 (Not in service at this time)For real time program participation, email Dr. Space at: drspace@thespaceshow.com for instructions and access.The Space Show is a non-profit 501C3 through its parent, One Giant Leap Foundation, Inc.

Email us at podcast@pursueGOD.org.Donate Now --Failure is one of life's great interrupters. Sometimes it comes after a long season of struggle. Other times—like David—it crashes into our story right after success. David spent decades waiting on God's promise, surviving betrayal, wilderness years, and impossible odds. Then at last, the shepherd-warrior became king. He won battles. He grew influence. He stacked victories. But success often tests us in ways adversity cannot. When comfort sets in, cracks in our character begin to widen. That's exactly what happened to David.Second Samuel 11 tells the story: David stayed home when kings went to war, saw Bathsheba, pursued her, abused his authority, and arranged Uriah's death. It's a tragic chain of compromise. Then God sent Nathan the prophet, who confronted him with a parable—and with the piercing words: “You are the man!” (2 Samuel 12:7 NLT). Psalm 51 is David's prayer after being exposed. It's a window into godly sorrow, honest repentance, and the surprising hope that failure doesn't have to be final.1. Failure Can Become a Doorway, Not a Dead EndMany people live as if their worst moment now defines them forever. David felt the weight of his sin deeply:Psalm 51:3–4 (NLT) — “For I recognize my rebellion… Against you, and you alone, have I sinned.”David makes no excuses. He names his sin before God. This is the difference between worldly sorrow and godly sorrow.2 Corinthians 7:10 (NLT) says godly sorrow “leads us away from sin and results in salvation,” while worldly sorrow only regrets getting caught. Godly sorrow grieves how sin breaks God's heart, not just His rules. And when we repent for breaking God's heart, He changes our heart—not just our behavior.If you've been letting failure define your future, Psalm 51 offers hope: repentance is a doorway God invites you to walk through, not a wall meant to stop you.2. Humility Is the Hinge That Swings the Door OpenDavid doesn't shift blame to Bathsheba, stress, or schedule. He looks inward:Psalm 51:5–6 (NLT) — “You desire honesty… teaching me wisdom.”Humility is what makes repentance possible. As F.B. Meyer once wrote, the gifts on God's “lower shelves” go to the lowly. Humility is the willingness to be taught, corrected, and changed. Exposure is painful, but it is also grace—because God reveals what He intends to heal.David's prayer echoes another powerful invitation:Psalm 139:23–24 (NLT) — “Search me, O God…”That is the prayer of a teachable heart.3. Repentance Is More Than Stopping Bad BehaviorToo many people think repentance begins with outward change. But Psalm 51 shows that repentance is first an inside work—something...
The collapse of a major hospital system set off one of the most complex healthcare emergencies Massachusetts has ever faced. In this episode, Dr. Gregg Meyer, Incident Manager for the Massachusetts Department of Public Health, discusses how the state responded to the unprecedented Steward Health Care crisis and worked to protect patients, communities, and hospital staff. He explains how years of debt, real estate deals, and private equity extraction destabilized the system and pushed it into bankruptcy. He shares what it took to manage a months-long VUCA public health emergency, including on-site monitoring, emergency closures, and the transfer of six hospitals to new nonprofit operators. He also reflects on the human and financial toll the crisis left behind, as well as why stronger oversight and policy reform are urgently needed.

The Real Reason Our Culture Is Falling Apart. Stephen Meyer Explains. ACU Sunday Series. Watch this video at- https://youtu.be/al8F1aTY2uY?si=bLweNNnGmJ6hno1B Stephen Meyer 89.9K subscribers 448,356 views Aug 1, 2025 Today's video is a reflection on the 40th anniversary of Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn's chilling speech, "Men Have Forgotten God." There are many sobering parallels between the collapse of spiritual life in Soviet Russia and today's cultural crisis in America like how the rise of materialism, scientific atheism and nihilistic worldviews are contributing to a decline in faith especially among Gen Z. If you've ever wondered why belief in God seems to be fading, and what can be done about it, this is a conversation you can't afford to miss. ====================================================== Are you interested in the origins of life and the universe?
