For eight years running, Finland has been rated the happiest country in the world by a peculiar United Nations-backed project called the World Happiness Report, started in 2012. Soon after Finland shot to the top of the list, its government set up a “happiness tourism” initiative, which now offers itineraries highlighting the cultural elements that ostensibly contribute to its status: foraging, fresh air, trees, lakes, sustainably produced meals and, perhaps above all else, saunas.Instead of adhering to one of these optimal itineraries or visiting Finland at the rosiest time of year (any time except the dead of winter), Molly Young arrived with few plans at all during one of the bleakest months. Would the happiest country on earth still be so mirthful at its gloomiest? Unlock full access to New York Times podcasts and explore everything from politics to pop culture.

In the early morning hours of March 24, 2012, Molly Young drove to her ex-boyfriend's apartment after receiving numerous calls and texts asking for help. The next morning, she was found in his room, on the floor next to his bed, with a gunshot wound to her head. Her death has initially ruled a suicide, but was amended to “undetermined”. The evidence is murky and circumstantial, but seems to heavily lean toward Molly having taken her own life, but is that the case? SOURCESJustice For Molly, Facebook Pagehttps://www.legacy.com/us/obituaries/thesouthern/name/molly-young-obituary?id=25592779https://casetext.com/case/young-v-minton-1https://www.isba.org/ibj/2016/09/lawpulse/mollyslawgivessomewrongfuldeathclaihttps://media.crimewatchdaily.com/2017/11/07/mollyyoung-death-investigation-illinois-states-attorney-appellate-prosecutor.pdfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/autumn-s-oddities--5307439/support.

Molly Young was found dead by her boyfriend in his apartment in March 2012. Officially, after a jury and coroner's inquest, her cause of death has still been ruled as “undetermined”, and there has never been enough evidence to bring any charges. But Molly's father Larry is sure that she met with foul play and is hopeful that one day, somebody will be charged. The Illinois State Police Department are continuing to investigate any new leads or evidence that presents itself, but the case remains without a final solution to this day.

What if we started with gratitude? With love? In this episode Ayana is joined by longtime mentor Molly Young Brown in a discussion that tends to what it means to be human in times of polycrisis and unraveling.Grounding the conversation in practice of group processing, activism, and relationality, Molly speaks to the reality of our time. We simply can't go on like this, and it is dizzying to pretend anything else. This truth is illuminating, but does not need to be wholly devastating. At the peak of crises, how might we turn towards a world that imagines things differently, a world that is not driven only by profit, a world where we might center love? Molly encourages listeners to turn to deep time – our connection to our ancestors and to all who come in the future – and to root into a relationship with humanity and the earth that recognizes our interconnectedness. Molly Brown, M.A., M.Div. lives in Mt Shasta, CA with her husband Jim. In her work as a writer, educator, workshop facilitator, and life coach, she draws on the Work That Reconnects, ecopsychology, psychosynthesis, and systems thinking, and specializes in working with activists. She co-authored with Joanna Macy both editions of Coming Back to Life (1998, 2014) , edits the online journal, Deep Times: A Journal of the Work That Reconnects, and co-directs the Spiral Journey Facilitator Development Program.

Molly Young was a beautiful 21 year old with her entire life ahead of her. Until one fateful day in March 2012 when everything changed for Molly and her family. A phone call to the Carbondale Illinois 911 dispatch indicated that Molly had taken her own life via overdose. When EMT's arrive however, they recognize right away this is no overdose considering Molly had an obvious gunshot wound to the left side of her head. The details of this case will shock and horrify you, and hopefully inspire you to a call to action like it did for us.  Molly Marie Young – unique, compassionate, and talented. | Citizens Against Homicide Illinois Attorney General - Contact Us Molly Young Memorial Foundation - Justice, Non Profit (justiceformolly.org) Interviews and emails with Larry Young- Molly's father.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for January 20, 2023 is: vulpine • VUL-pine • adjective Vulpine is a formal word that means “of, relating to, or similar to a fox.” It is also used figuratively to mean “shrewd or crafty.” // The makeup artist did an incredible job creating realistic vulpine features to complement my fox costume. See the entry > Examples: “I was reading in peace when a shocking noise came through the window: the sound of a person shrieking in distress. ... A spurt of hasty Googling revealed that I was hearing ‘vixen screeches'—the mating calls of local red foxes. ... Breeding season in Massachusetts, where I'm currently located, is approaching its conclusion. Silence will soon return. But a part of me will miss the adrenaline spikes caused by these haunting vulpine screams.” — Molly Young, The New York Times, 26 Feb. 2022 Did you know? In Walden (1854), Henry David Thoreau described foxes crying out as they hunted through the winter forest, and he wrote, “Sometimes one came near to my window, attracted by my light, barked a vulpine curse at me, and then retreated.” Thoreau's was far from the first use of vulpine to describe our sly friends; English writers have been applying that adjective to the foxlike as well as the shrewd and crafty since at least the 15th century, and the Latin parent of our term, vulpinus (from the Latin word vulpes, meaning “fox”), was around long before that. Incidentally, the scientific name of the red fox, one of two possible North American fox species to have cussed out Thoreau, is Vulpes vulpes.

In March of 2012, Kathy Young was shocked when she awoke at 5 AM and her 21-year-old daughter Molly was nowhere to be found. Only 5 hours later, Molly's family would discover that Molly had driven to her ex-boyfriend's house in the middle of the night and taken her own life. However, it quickly became apparent that something wasn't adding up. Molly's ex-boyfriend claimed to have slept through the gunshot, although it occurred only inches from him. The gun belonged to Molly's ex-boyfriend and was found underneath her body. And her ex-boyfriend's DNA was found under her fingernails. Was Molly's death really self-inflicted?

Dan Fesperman's 13th thriller, “Winter Work,” is set just after the fall of the Berlin Wall. The Stasi, East Germany's brutal Cold War intelligence service, was busy destroying evidence. The C.I.A. was just as busy trying to learn the enemy organization's secrets.“The C.I.A., initially, had people calling ex-Stasi agents,” Fesperman says on this week's podcast. “They got a hold of a directory with home phone numbers of some of these Stasi foreign intelligence people. And they started cold-calling them — like salesmen, like these irritating calls we get at home, except for the Stasi it was the C.I.A. calling. ‘Hey, would you like to share your secrets with us? We can pay you.' They were getting mostly hang-ups, a lot of angry lectures. And when that quickly didn't work out, they then began visiting them door to door, which didn't work a whole lot better.”Isaac Fitzgerald visits the podcast to talk about his new memoir, “Dirtbag, Massachusetts,” which recalls his troubled childhood and his eventual coming to terms with those responsible for it.“I was able to give my parents a little more grace in this book,” Fitzgerald says. “And part of that was recognizing that my story didn't start with my birth; my story starts with the things that happened to them.”Also on this week's episode, Elizabeth Harris has news from the publishing world; and Dwight Garner and Molly Young talk about books they've recently reviewed. John Williams is the host.Here are the books discussed in this week's “What We're Reading”:“Memoirs” by Robert Lowell“Yoga” by Emmanuel CarrèreWe would love to hear your thoughts about this episode, and about the Book Review's podcast in general.

Elisabeth Egan, an editor at the Book Review, curates our Group Text column — a monthly choice of a book that she feels is particularly well suited to book clubs and their discussions. On this week's podcast, she talks about her latest pick: “Jackie & Me,” by Louis Bayard, which imagines the friendship between Jacqueline Bouvier and Lem Billings, a close friend of the Kennedys.“This is rooted in reality,” Egan says, “but Bayard runs with it and imagines conversations between Lem and Jackie, and just shows this, on one hand, fabulous life of parties and museums and fun they had together, but also sets up this ticking clock where you come to understand what Jackie really has at stake, and has to lose by committing to this life with the Kennedys.”Matthew Schneier visits the podcast to discuss Paula Byrne's new biography, “The Adventures of Miss Barbara Pym.” Pym, a British writer, began publishing novels in the 1950s.“She published six novels in pretty quick succession, and they're great,” Schneier says of the first decade or so of her career. “Very clever, very witty, she was often compared to Jane Austen — which was a writer that she loved and appreciated, but also a kind of very easy comparison, whereas Pym's ironies can be a little bit darker than some of Austen's. And there's a sense in her work that she is spotlighting characters who are not the Emma Woodhouses, who are beautiful and rich and effervescent. They're what she ended up calling ‘excellent women,' which is the title of I think her best starter novel. These women who are well brought up and very proper, a little bit pious, but can also be a little dowdy, a little dreary, a little bit easier to overlook.”Also on this week's episode, Alexandra Alter talks about the filmmaker Werner Herzog and his first novel, “The Twilight World”; and Jennifer Szalai and Molly Young talk about books they've recently reviewed. John Williams is the host.Here are the books discussed by The Times's critics this week:“The Facemaker” by Lindsey Fitzharris“Meet Me by the Fountain” by Alexandra Lange

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for June 10, 2022 is: lout • LOUT • noun A lout is a person who is both awkward and brutish. // To get away from the obnoxious louts they'd been seated near, Jared and Fiona asked the waiter if they could be moved to another table. See the entry > Examples: “This is a page-turner about a tough woman and her con-artist lout of a partner, and I will eat my laptop if it doesn't get optioned for TV or film the minute it hits bookshelves.” – Molly Young, Vulture, 8 Jan. 2021 Did you know? Lout belongs to a large group of words that we use to indicate a particular sort of offensive and insensitive person, that group also including such terms as boor, oaf, jerk, and churl. We've used lout in this way since the mid-1500s. As early as the 800s, however, lout functioned as a verb with the meaning "to bow in respect." No one is quite sure how—or even if—the verb sense developed into a noun meaning "a brutish person." The noun could have been coined independently, but if its source was the verb, perhaps the awkward posture of one bowing down led over the centuries to the idea that the bowing person was base and awkward as well.

Jennifer Egan's new novel, “The Candy House,” is a follow-up to her Pulitzer Prize-winning “A Visit From the Goon Squad.” A few characters appear in both books, but the novels are also united by Egan's structural approach — an inventive one that, in “Goon Squad,” included a chapter written as a PowerPoint presentation, and in “The Candy House,” a chapter written as a long series of terse directives to a spy.On this week's podcast, Egan talks about the new book, and about why she enjoys experimenting with form.“To my mind, the novel was invented to be a hungry, greedy form that could pull into itself all other kinds of discourse,” Egan says. “So in the earliest novels: graphic images, letters, legal documents. As a fiction writer, one of the fun things about working with the novel is that anything is up for grabs. If I can bend it to fiction, I will, and I'm looking around me for those opportunities all the time. It's not easy to do it, because the danger is that you just look like you're using gimmickry. And what I find is that the only time any kind of radical structural form works is if I can find a story that can only be told that way. It involves a lot of waiting, and a lot of trial and error.”Also on this week's episode, Alexandra Alter discusses the work of the Russian novelist Vladimir Sorokin; and Alexandra Jacobs and Molly Young talk about books they've recently reviewed. John Williams is the host.Here are the books discussed by The Times's critics this week:“The Palace Papers” by Tina Brown“Liarmouth” by John WatersWe would love to hear your thoughts about this episode, and about the Book Review's podcast in general.

Thomas Fisher's new book, “The Emergency,” details his life as an emergency physician at the University of Chicago Medical Center, where he's worked for 20 years. It provides an up-close look at a hospital during the pandemic, and also zooms out to address the systemic issues that afflict American health care.“This book was conceptualized prior to Covid,” Fisher says on this week's podcast. “But Covid laid bare so much of what I intended to discuss from the beginning. So in some ways it was weirdly fortuitous. It gave the opportunity to discuss many of the details in much more vivid relief because we had this pandemic laying out all the things that have been a problem for so long.”The critic and essayist Maud Newton's first book, “Ancestor Trouble,” details her investigations into her family's fascinating and sometimes discomfiting history, and reflects on our culture's increased obsession with genealogy.“Allowing ourselves to really imagine our ancestors, in all of their fullness — the difficult and bad things that they did, and of course the wonderful things that they did — can just be a really transformative experience,” Newton says. “I've come to find that the line between imagination and spirituality has become a lot more porous over the course of writing this book.”Also on this week's episode, Dwight Garner and Molly Young talk about books they've recently reviewed. John Williams is the host.We would love to hear your thoughts about this episode, and about the Book Review's podcast in general. You can send them to books@nytimes.com.

Jennifer Haigh's new novel, “Mercy Street” — which Richard Russo calls “extraordinary” in his review — is about a woman named Claudia who works at a women's clinic in Boston. It's also about the protesters outside. On this week's podcast, Haigh says the novel was inspired in part by her own time working on a clinic's hotline.“Obviously I am strongly pro-choice or I wouldn't have been volunteering at this clinic,” Haigh says. “But until this experience, I knew very little about what abortion actually means in a person's life. And I think that's true for many people who have strong convictions about abortions. Most people don't know very much about it. It's ironic when you consider, this is such a common experience, right? We know that about one in four American women will at some point have an abortion. And yet there's such a climate of secrecy around this procedure that most of them don't feel free to talk about it honestly. And many never tell anyone that they've done this. The result being that the average person knows very, very little about this experience.”Megan Walsh visits the podcast to talk about her new book, “The Subplot: What China Is Reading and Why It Matters.”And why does it matter? “We tend to think about China in quite binary terms these days, as friend or foe,” Walsh says. “If we do properly pay attention to what people are genuinely trying to process and think about in China — which is peculiar, diverse, strange, innovative, some of it's terrible, some of it's amazing — I feel like we get an alternative way of understanding the complexities at the heart of a country which we are defining ourselves against, and we have an opportunity to also understand without seeing it as a sort of monolith.”Also on this week's episode, Elizabeth Harris has news from the publishing world, and Jennifer Szalai and Molly Young talk about books they've recently reviewed.

What is “disgust”? Molly Young, a journalist with The New York Times, considers the evolutionary and social uses of this “universal aspect of life” to identify the impact of disgust in its physical, psychological and linguistic manifestations.Young explains the different forms of disgust, analyzing how the reactions they elicit play out in the body and mind, and why it is in many ways cultural. She explains how disgust shapes our behavior, technology, relationships and even political leanings. It's behind everyday purity rites; the reason we use toilet paper, wash our hands and hold cutlery; it has shadowed the rules that have governed emotion in every culture throughout time.Charles Darwin, the scholar William Ian Miller, the research psychologist Paul Rozin and the philosopher Aurel Kolnai, among the many others who felt compelled, Young explained, to investigate this most primal emotion.This story was written by Molly Young and recorded by Audm.

The writer and editor Robert Gottlieb does double duty on this week's podcast. He talks about the life and career of Sinclair Lewis, on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of “Babbitt,” Lewis's best-selling novel about the narrow-mindedness and conformity of middle-class America in the first half of the 20th century. But first, he talks about his own new book, “Garbo,” a biography of the movie star Greta Garbo, whose impact on the culture was matched by the sense of mystery that surrounded her.“I understood the power of the impact, but I didn't really understand — because I hadn't been seeing her movies, I was too young — I didn't really understand what she was on the screen and how she got to the screen in the first place. So as usual, it was curiosity that led me to write about her,” Gottlieb says. “No one had ever seemed like her before, and no one has ever seemed like her since. So to trace what those qualities were became the subject of the book.Carl Bernstein visits the podcast to discuss his new memoir, “Chasing History.” The book is about a time before Bernstein and Bob Woodward became household names for their Watergate reporting. Subtitled “A Kid in the Newsroom,” Bernstein's memoir focuses on the years 1960 to 1965, when he worked at The Evening Star in Washington, then the chief rival of The Washington Post. He was first hired as a copyboy when he was only 16.“I was spending a lot of time at the pool hall,” Bernstein says of his life before he got the job. “I was getting terrible grades in school. I was working Saturdays at a low-rent department store in a bad part of town.” At the newspaper, he saw a clearer future. “The greatest reporters of their time, many of them were in this newsroom. And I saw what they were doing, and I studied what they were doing and I knew that's what I wanted to do.”Also on this week's episode, Elizabeth Harris has news from the publishing world; and Jennifer Szalai and Molly Young talk about the books they've recently reviewed.

In this episode, Natalia, Neil, and Niki discuss the historical significance of the January 6, 2021 assault on the U.S. Capitol. Support Past Present on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/pastpresentpodcast Here are some links and references mentioned during this week's show:  As we approach the one-year anniversary of the Capitol riots, pundits have reflected on how much of a turning point it was.

The actor and author Alan Cumming was happily surprised that his best-selling first memoir, “Not My Father's Son,” inspired many readers who had suffered their own childhood traumas. But he was disappointed, he says on this week's podcast, when people characterized him as having “triumphed” or “overcome” his adversity. “I haven't, I haven't, I absolutely haven't,” he says. And he stresses that point in his new memoir, “Baggage.”“We all have baggage, we all have trauma, we all have something,” he says. “But the worst thing to do is to pretend it hasn't happened. to deny it or to think that you're over it. And that's what I felt was in danger of happening with the way that my first book was reacted to. So in this I'm trying to say: You never get over it, it's with you all the time.” He adds: “You have to be very vigilant about your trauma. If you deny it, it will come back and bite you in the bum.”Allen C. Guelzo visits the podcast to discuss “Robert E. Lee: A Life,” his new biography of the Confederate leader.“Since it had been at least 25 years since another serious biography of Lee had been published — this was by Emory Thomas, in 1995 — it seemed to me that the time was right to begin a re-evaluation of Lee, and especially to ask questions about Lee from someone like myself coming from what was, quite frankly, a Northern perspective,” Guelzo says. “After all, all the books I've written up to this point have been about Abraham Lincoln and the Union cause in the war, and I thought it might be productive to look at Robert E. Lee through the other end of the telescope.”Also on this week's episode, Alexandra Alter has news from the publishing world; and Alexandra Jacobs and Molly Young talk about books they've recently reviewed. Pamela Paul is the host.Here are the books discussed by the Times's critics this week:“Our Country Friends” by Gary Shteyngart“Solid Ivory” by James Ivory

Jonathan Franzen's new novel, “Crossroads,” has generated a lot of discussion, as his work tends to do. The novelist and critic Thomas Mallon, who reviewed “Crossroads” for us, is on the podcast this week to talk about the book and to place it in the context of Franzen's entire career.“He is fundamentally a social novelist, and his basic unit of society is the family,” Mallon says. “Always families are important in Franzen, and we move outward from the family into the business, into the town, into whatever the larger units are. His novels are likely to remain as indicators of what the world was like at the time he was writing. This new novel is a little bit different in that he's going back 50 years. The Nixon era is now, definitely, historical novel material.”Joshua Ferris visits the podcast to talk about his new novel, “A Calling for Charlie Barnes.”“It's basically about a guy who has floundered all his life until the moment that he gets pancreatic cancer,” Ferris says. “His diagnosis is a little back and forth, he's not really being honest with too many people in his life about what's going on. But eventually this rather thundering and life-changing disease happens to him. He's got to deal with it, he's got to get an operation and go through chemo and all the rest of it. And he changes his life. That's sort of the plot of the book, I suppose. But it's narrated by a tricky fellow who is related to him and determines the narrative as much as Charlie himself.”Also on this week's episode, Tina Jordan looks back at Book Review history as it celebrates its 125th anniversary; Alexandra Alter has news from the publishing world; and our new book critics, Molly Young and Alexandra Jacobs, introduce themselves and talk about their approaches to literary criticism. Pamela Paul is the host.We would love to hear your thoughts about this episode, and about the Book Review's podcast in general. You can send them to books@nytimes.com.

Have you been wondering when the best time is to finally start your subscription box? This week I’m joined by Molly Young, founder of the Blue Lotus Intentions box to talk about how she followed her heart and launched as soon as it was possible.   When working up to launching your box, you need to have the essentials down. You can’t launch without having an idea, curated items for your box, and most of all, subscribers to send your box to. But after that, when is the right time to launch? You might be asking how many subscribers you should hold out for, or if launching on a holiday would have the most impact.   From a One-Time idea to a Full Subscription   Molly had an idea for a box, but at first envisioned it as a one-time thing. It wasn’t until she signed up for my $10 Coaching Week that she was able to see that not only was a subscription box a better fit for her idea, but that it was possible at all. It turned out that $10 commitment was just the boost that she needed. She started reaching out to suppliers and ordering in bulk, ready to boost her own estimates for how many boxes she would start out with.   By the end of Coaching Week, she had her first orders on the way, built her website and already had a waitlist of members to send boxes to. For her first launch, she decided on a one-time shipment to get her box out before Christmas and when all was said and done, she sent out 50 boxes with a further 18 subscribed for a January box as well! As we speak, going into March she’s been steadily increasing her numbers to 40 subscribers for her Blue Lotus Intentions box.   Molly story shows that there’s more than one way to start your subscription box. Once she had the basics taken care of, she shipped it out and started prepping for the next one. She had the confidence to get started once she was ready, and the willingness to build on that first launch to start her business.   “I think these things that are in our hearts, sometimes fear gets in the way of that. Just jump in and go for it, before your mind realizes this may or may not be possible, the wheels are already in motion.” – Molly   If you have an idea you feel passionate about, the perfect time to get started is right now. Take that idea and run with it, and just keep telling yourself it’s go time!   You can connect with Molly and Blue Lotus Holistic Wellness at: https://www.bluelotusholisticwellness.com/ and also on Instagram and Facebook at: https://www.instagram.com/bluelotusholisticwellness/ https://www.facebook.com/BlueLotusHolisticWellnessLLC   Wondering if the subscription box is right for you? Join my $10 Coaching Week from March 21st through March 26th. I'm going to show you how to develop your idea into a plan.

This week, Cam and Bird cover the tragic, unexplained 2012 death of Molly Young, a woman from Carbondale, Illinois found shot to death in the home of her on-and-off again boyfriend, Richard "Ritchie" Minton. Police promptly ruled out foul play; however, Molly's death presented far too many questions than answers, with many believing that Minton knows a lot more than he is letting on. In the first of two parts, we examine the timeline leading up to Molly Young's untimely death and Ritchie Minton's possible capability.

Molly was just 22 years young when she was found dead on her ex-boyfriends (Richie Minton) bedroom floor in Carbondale, Illinois. To this day no one is behind bars and there has been no justice for Molly or her family. Was this a huge cover up? Was it a simple mistake? Whos to blame?    Resources:     https://www.endocrineweb.com/conditions/thyroid-cancer/thyroid-cancer https://www.thehotline.org/resources/when-your-partner-threatens-suicide/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vn4-wHZoaD4 Crime Watch Daily https://mitchellhoffmanwolf.com Justice For Molly- Facebook   Follow us on instagram: Crime Sidekick Podcast Follow us on Facebook: Crime Sidekick

More than 95,000 people filed sex-abuse claims against the Boy Scouts of America before a key deadline passed last week in its Chapter 11 bankruptcy case. It's an astonishing figure that, according to victims' attorneys, exceeds the number of claims ever filed against the Catholic Church.The avalanche of sex abuse filings that forced the youth organization into bankruptcy has its origins in a Portland abuse case from a decade ago. A multi-million dollar jury award made it clear the Boy Scouts could face massive liability. And after the case, The Oregonian and other news organizations fought for, and won, the release of the Boy Scout's secret files on known abusers.We're revisiting a conversation from February with Molly Young, an editor for The Oregonian and OregonLive who reported on the bankruptcy, as well as Charlie Hinkle, a longtime First Amendment attorney who argued the case for the news organization.

Attention is one of the most precious things we have. How do we make sure that we're paying attention to the things we really want? Better yet, how do we make sure the things we pay attention to are actually conducive to our happiness and well-being? Companies like Google aren't doing us any favors in figuring this out. Take the time to decide why you want something. Don't let others make the decision for you.   Essay on advertising and happiness by Thomas Wells - https://www.philosophersbeard.org/2014/08/if-youre-so-rich-why-arent-you-happier.html   Article on "corporate speak" by Molly Young https://www.vulture.com/2020/02/spread-of-corporate-speak.html   Email me at podofideas@gmail.com

Corporate speak. Garbage language. Double talk. Acronyms. We are fed up with language that lacks clarity and is intended to obfuscate. We were instantly happy when we saw an article in Vulture by Molly Young that got us thinking: among all the detestable aspects of this double talk, is it possible there’s an upside, too?In this episode of Weekly Grooves, we explore some of the psychological benefits and attenuations caused by what is often referred to as Garbage Language. In just a few short minutes, we run through some of our most irritating examples of this unnecessary jargon.Just so you know…consider these:“Can you parallel path this?” ...Do you want me to work on two things at the same time or deliver an alternative?“It’s a blue ocean project…” ...Are you trying to let me know that this has vast opportunity to grow or that we’re starting from scratch?“We should be able to deliver this for single digits…” ...Why not just say that we expect to come in under $10 million?“We’ll need to do a deep dive on that…” ...Are you indicating we need more analysis?“We’ll need more bandwidth to get that done…” ...What are you asking for? Do you want more or different people with the same or different skill sets to help get this done?“We need to get aligned on this before we move forward…” ...Are you indicating that every person on the team must agree 100% with the recommendations or just most of us before we get started?“What’s your takeaway from this?” ...Are you asking what I’m learning from our discussion or are there specific items that require action that you want me to follow up on?© 2020 Weekly Grooves Links“Why Do Corporations Speak The Way They Do?” by Molly Young in Vulture: https://www.vulture.com/2020/02/spread-of-corporate-speak.htmlWeWork Filing with SEC: https://www.businessinsider.com/wework-reportedly-draws-scrutiny-from-sec-2019-11Cristina Biccieri, PhD: https://philosophy.sas.upenn.edu/people/cristina-bicchieriLila Gleitman, PhD: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lila_R._Gleitman

March 24, 2012. Carbondale, Illinois. After 3am, Molly Young, 21, was contacted by her ex-boyfriend, Richie Minton, because he needed help. Apparently, he was very drunk. She went to his apartment to help him, but just hours later she was dead. At 9am, Richie's roommate, Wesley Romack, called 911. During the call, Richie took over and told dispatch that Molly had overdosed. He would call again a little later to say that he found his gun and that Molly had actually been shot. While an investigation into Molly's death should have cleared up the question of whether she took her own life or was murdered, this case proved to be somewhat complicated. There was evidence that Molly was severely depressed at times. But Richie was a 911 dispatcher for the Carbondale police department and his father, mother, and aunt also worked for the police. Did he get special treatment and benefit of the doubt due to his law enforcement connections?
