Brock and Salk discuss the Mariners sweep of the Astros and how different the offense looks when their best players are hitting. They then react to a fantasy football list that says the Seahawks have gotten worse. Moreso than any other team in the NFL. They debate if there is any truth to that or not. In Blue 88, Brock takes a look at who is an ideal fit for the Seahawks in the draft, why this draft is so hard on established programs like the Seahawks, and who the next Seahawks owner should be.

The stunning fleet of Goz Dawson's are a fixture on our roads and stand out in their varying green and white livery. Bruce got the chance to sit with a very humbled Goz at his home recently and discovered a man who has a passion for the industry, love of trucks and gratitude toward his life choices that have led to his success. Moreso, his pride on the popularity of his Dolly's Dream combination has had an everlasting impact on his conscience that drives him to give back to the community that has supported him. What a great man, enjoy this like we did.

One day your child is their “healthy normal” self, and the next day they're radically changed, displaying neuropsychiatric symptoms that can scare and bewilder the child, their families and carers/teachers. The heartbreaking thing is it can take months if not years, to find a doctor who can identify and start treating the cause of this sudden change.Enter Dr Nancy O'Hara. We look at PANS/PANDAS and the genetic, environmental and incidence-based reasons something sudden like this can happen to a child and most importantly, how we can do 2 things. Firstly, mitigate risk by being more literate in causal factors and knowing how to proactively support children's health and resilience. Secondly, know how to spot the changes in kids - some subtle and some severe, so that you can start treating and healing the child soon and avoid being bounced around to a few doctors and practitioners before they get the support and treatment they need.We cover:What PANS/PANDAS can present asWhere it comes from biologically and environmentallyMacro foods that are important for this group and whyHow can we be proactive when an infection hits or tick bite happensand moreSo.

In the USA right now, every day brings another attack on transgender identities, lives, and existence. We were eager to check in with Dina Nina Martinez--public servant, activist, comedian, queer minster, and so much more--to understand the current crisis from her point of view. Moreso, we wanted to know where she is turning for hope, community, and spiritual nourishment. The lives and safety of people we love are on the line, just to be kicked around as a political football by those who exploit them to spread fear and gain votes. The time to stand up for our trans family is now.Dina Nina serves as the 15th District Alder in Madison, WI (and is the first trans woman ever elected to office there.) She is also a performer, minister, speaker, and so much more. You can find out more about Dina Nina's creative, ministerial, and political work at her website dinanina.com.

Rhonda Smith-Banchero, the mother of Orlando Magic star Paolo Banchero, had some interesting social media reactions/posts that were necessary and did a solid job of laying out all of the frustrations that exist currently with the franchise. Except that unhappiness should be directed at President of Basketball Operations Jeff Weltman. Moreso than Head Coach Jamahl Mosley or any individual player on the roster.

When you think of World War 2, France is usually not one of the first countries you think about. That's partly because they spent a good majority of the war under occupation. Moreso the newly formed Vichy Government agreed to an armistice with the Germans putting them under occupation. There was one man who didn't surrender. That man became Free France, Charles De Gaulle. The veteran of World Wars 1 and 2 called upon himself to lead a country under occupation. De Gaulle was known for having a very high opinion of himself and his country. When no one else stepped up for France, De Gaulle stood up for France. During World War 1, World War 2, reconstruction of Europe, a potential French Civil War, and a student revolt, Charles stepped up. No matter how big of a pain De Gaulle was to the rest of the Allied leadership, he was crucial to the fight against the Germans. His love for France knew no bounds. Whether on the field of battle or the battle within the government. Join us as we get Historically High on Charles De GaulleSupport the show

It's not so much that Ollie has a problem with it. Moreso that he wants to protect the youth from the harsh realities that come with being an MLA in the North. And Mr. Speaker has a problem with that.
Healthcare is constantly highlighted as the industry that will benefit the most from AI. The prospective opportunities are endless: Improve access to services, improve quality of service, patient outcomes, and medical research. An analysis predicts that the healthcare could save up to $360B a year by implementing AI.That's we invited an expert to discuss what other industries can learn from healthcare's massive AI opportunity. Spencer Dorn, the Vice Chair and Professor of Medicine at the University of North Carolina. He is a contributor to Forbes and one of LinkedIn's Top Voices speaking on Healthcare + Innovation.Listen on Spotify | Listen on Apple PodcastsKey takeaways from the episode:* AI has been impacting healthcare for years, especially to create Electronic Health Records (EHS) as a way of centralizing information* AI is being explored today as assistants to medical professionals (e.g. Virtual/digital scribes) and across a variety of diagnosis scenarios (video)* But the rollouts have been plagued by consistent issues related to adoption and poor comprehension of the actual problems* To get EHS implemented EHS it needed an Obama-era law and incentive plan* Many of the initiatives aiming to speed up access to healthcare and diagnosis are undermining the relationships across the journey of being a patient * Technology is rarely the solution because the problem is typically bureaucracy, culture, lack of incentives, and externalitiesLessons for you:* Beware complexity: Most of AI products being sold by major corps and consultancies are ones solving micro-problems and not designed to tackle complex problems* Worry about adoption: It doesn't matter how brilliant your solution is, getting buy-in and adoption within enterprises will be the most pressing challenge* Think of problems as systems: JTBD and user stories have a tendency of over-simplifying problems and underrepresenting the range of factors, dependancies, and implications of a problem on the system as a whole* Ethnography is key: If you want to make a positive change to a problem space you need to leverage deep qualitative research techniques, like ethnography, to document and assess what matters and why* Monitor for unintended consequences: Even after dedicating lots of time to research and planning, we must be monitoring for unintended consequences that may create more work or more anxiety for those stakeholders within the system.Thanks for reading Design of AI: News & resources for product teams! This post is public so feel free to share it.Challenges building truly human-centred AI products and solutionsAI thought leaders love to push this message of getting to the future quickly. It creates this narrative that we're all falling behind.But let's slow down and recognize that there are countless of questions to be addressed before throwing everything out in favour or the shiny new system. This paper from Microsoft explored the many questions that users are posing about using AI agents. And these are very important questions that every team should be able to answer clearly to their users before deploying any solution.This poll from Google's former Chief Decision Scientist highlights that the technical part of implementing AI is no longer the biggest barrier, understanding humans is. If the organizations polled —ones who have successfully implemented AI— are struggling to identify good opportunities and to convince people to use it, then imagine what struggles an everyday org will have.And also worth considering that AI adoption is still much lower than we'd expect given all the hype. The implementation of aI —especially across large orgs— may takes a decade or more because we're fundamentally asking teams to change the way they work. Moreso, those in regulated industries need the permission to change how they operate before they can even consider implementing AI products.In the background many workers are using AI without their employers' knowledge, leading to an endless range of potential risks.Thanks for reading Design of AI: News & resources for product teams! This post is public so feel free to share it.Mindset shifts to help implement AI In the podcast Spencer kept highlighting that we need to go into problem spaces with humility and without the expectation that problems are easy to solve. Other guests have suggests other types of mindset shifts:* Jess Holbrook stated we need to be specific when talk about AI: Too many projects are built off of expectations, not specifications of what AI should do and how* Kristie J. Fisher believes we need to measure time well spent using AI: The best solution to adoption problems is making sure that the AI product delivers value AND time well spent* Josh Clark advocated for embracing the weirdness of AI: The imperfectness of AI outputs should be viewed as a creative and innovative feature to help you explore new directions* Phillip Maggs challenges us to imagine new possibilities with AI: This is your time to spread your capabilities into areas you always wished were possible * Alexandra Holness expects that designers need to be less emotional precious with AI: This is a time of uncertainty and what worked before may not work in the future, so especially designers will need to go into problem spaces with additional humblenessMetalab is probably the premier design shop in North America. They've designed many of the most popular AI products in market today. Sara Vienna, their VP Design published a great manifesto about mindset shifts that's worth a read. And she'll be a guest on the podcast soon!And for those wanting more of a blueprint: Tertiary Education Quality and Standards Agency of Australia put together a guide that has lots of helpful detail into some of these.

The joint initiative risks opening up Canada, Mexico and the United States even MORESO to the World Health Organization's demands as the calls for a global health ID continue to perpetuate in the face of further pandemic hoaxes including Bird Flu and Monkeypox. As more people are falsely diagnosed with "Bird Flu," so-called "experts" are weighing in, saying that Bird Flu and the regular flu may morph together to create a super bug. The issue with that is, the flu is largely a mythical illness as it is. More and more people are asking questions after "Covid" due to millions of people being falsely diagnosed with fraudulent PCR tests. Those that had heart attacks, cancer, pneumonia or other ailments were classified as "Covid-19." Now, as people look closer at the regular flu which pharma has used for decades to push flu shots, it's clear at 97.5% of all cases were not the flu at all, but bodily ailments due to the terrain a person puts their body through. That's in the margin of error by the way, meaning that we can pretty much just say 100% of the cases were not the flu. People for decades have gotten food poisoning, inflammation of organs and poisoning from vaccines and pharmaceuticals and it was passed off as "the flu." This is why so many people report only ever getting the flu after getting a flu vaccine. They've been leading us towards a global technocracy for a century, forcing us to be enslaved or die from ailments. They use the typical fear humans face when death appears close to control the masses. Now, the USDA is approving DNA vaccines to be put into food found at your local market. Tens of millions or more have died from the Covid vaccines. Tens of millions will die early from mysterious illnesses, heart problems, stroke and cancer after being injected in the coming years. This all leads to the global health passports and eventually a CBDC connected to digital IDs with carbon and social credit scores determining your food rations as they poison and devastate the supply chain. The World Economic Forum has openly said in 2022 that "Covid" was just a test for compliance to bring in 15 Minute Cities and technocratic, digital control over the masses. The Great Reset.

Kelp is one of the most sustainable plants in the world. Not only do kelp forests thrive without the use of pesticides and fertilizers, they also support carbon sequestration, promote biodiversity, buffer ocean acidification, and improve water quality. Snacks from the Sea supports these incredible ecosystems by creating nutrient-dense, kelp-based snacks that are harvested sustainably to ensure a vibrant ecosystem while supporting a lifestyle of health and happiness. Inspired by a nourishing dish made by her Korean mother, Snacks from the Sea founder Jennifer wanted to provide people in America with the incredible health benefits of kelp in a convenient, delicious, crunchy snack. Moreso than traditional seaweed, kelp is a nutrient powerhouse that contains healthy vitamins and minerals, such as vitamins A and K1, folate, magnesium, iron, and iodine and a powerful antioxidant, fucoidan, which has been shown to have anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, anti-viral and immunoregulatory properties. Snacks from the Sea's signature product, Kelpie Chips, delivers the nourishing power of kelp in a line of all-natural kelp chips available in three delicious flavors: Zesty Pizza, Chipotle, and Salt & Pepper. Apart from supporting vibrant human health, Snacks from the Sea also benefits marine ecosystems. Snacks from the Sea works directly with Korean farmers to harvest kelp from large, sustainable underwater forests. Their kelp farmers are part of an eco-friendly cooperative that was one of the first kelp producers to receive an ASC-MSC seaweed certification. This certification means their operations have demonstrated proven success at minimizing environmental impact, and that employees and the community are being cared for. ASC-MSC-certified operations are monitored based on five criteria: sustainable wild populations, environmental impacts, effective management, social responsibility, and community relations and interactions. “In Korea, kelp has been used as a remedy for thousands of years,” said Snacks from the Sea founder Jennifer Murphy. “In creating Snacks from the Sea, I wanted to share the amazing benefits of this nutrient powerhouse with people across the United States. In doing so, we are also supporting marine ecosystems that sequester carbon. Our kelp-based products are a win for snackers and a win for the planet.” From sea to snack, Snacks from the Sea's kelp-based products are sustainably sourced directly from the sea, then lightly fried with delicious natural seasonings to create the perfect crunchy kelp to eat with a favorite dip, crumbled for a salad or soup topper, or carried in a backpack for clean energy on the trail. Snacks from the Sea can be purchased on Amazon. About Snacks from the Sea Snacks from the Sea is a line of nutrient-dense, kelp-based snacks. Snacks from the Sea signature kelp chips are made from sustainably harvested kelp and lightly fried with delicious natural seasonings. Rich in minerals, vitamins, and antioxidant activity, Snacks from the Sea Kelpie Chips are perfect with a favorite dip, crumbled for a salad or soup topper, or carried in a backpack for clean energy on the trail.

Dylan Jones once described the Eighties as being shaped by ‘a new type of bohemianism, one empowered by a certainty and an optimism that was only fleeting back in the sixties.' *Moreso, K.Tel records importantly reminded us that home taping was killing music. So, it's November 1981, and this young music fan is feverishly taking ownership of two cassettes in his local Woolworths. One blue, one red. One bought, one free. Together this maiden compilation purchase - from the aforementioned compilation giant K.Tel, Charthits ‘81 - as kicked off by the ever so eighties drum crash from Dave Stewart and Barbara Gaskin – was the start of a lifelong love for variously compiled pop. One that would lead to, well, NOW. Forty years later and the superlative team at NOW HQ delivered their Yearbook for 1981. 85 of the biggest, brightest and best hits (thank you Mr. Mulligan for that very nice tagline). A year that started tragically with the death of John Lennon, and ended with Susanne and Joanne from the Human League with spray foam in their mouths amidst highly flammable Christmas trees in BBC Television Centre.And inbetween, a dazzling twelve months where the decade began to take shape and form an identity that remains with us today. Pop, soul, disco, funk, rock, reggae and metal. All present and correct. But, as Thursday nights on BBC1 would testify through those iconic theme tunes of Tomorrow's World and the newly christened TOTP Yellow Pearl in July, electronica was elbowing its way through the queue at the Blitz club to make a defining mark on the sights and sounds of 1981.With the able assistance of guests Chi and Ian from ElectricityClub.co.uk, this episode revisits the NOW Yearbook 1981 (and it's stellar accompanying extra volume!). An iconic line up of music and memories awaits including Duran, Duran, Ultravox, Soft Cell, Kim Wilde, The Human League and ABBA. We explore how the year saw some seventies survivors glam up and mobilise for this new decade with assistance from the new video pioneers such as Russell Mulcahy and David Mallet. We also consider how retro never sounded so good, what made a good (and bad) medley hit, how tribal factions and cultural identity shaped our school days (and the streets across the UK), how news and popular culture were living under the ever present threat of global destruction and how pop saved us all once again.Grab some blank tapes, switch off one of the three channels on your TV and join us as we head back to a glorious year in pop, 1981.Ridicule is, as you know, nothing to be scared of. * Sweet Dreams: The Story of the New Romantics: Dylan Jones (2020) Hosted on Acast.

Tonight I am joined by my friend Bobby Demars of Blind Barrels. Blind Barrels shines a light on craft distillers by releasing completely blind samples from small distilleries to consumers in order that they can really analyze the samples without the influence of the brand, this is followed up by education and the revelation of the brand. Bobby and I dive into his experiences, some spirituality, conspiracy theories and more. The conversation closely mirrors the type of conversations I find myself engaged in in the distilling industry post events or barrel picks and I think you will enjoy it too. Thank you as always for your support. We have lined up some high caliber guests for the coming season. I certainly don't see trying to make a career of podcasting and Im not even attempting to monetize my work here, but I would like to see it become successful. My definition of success with this show is the number of listeners who would really appreciate this content as much as I do, so if you can do me a favor and like, subscribe, and leave a comment on the episodes I would really appreciate it.

I'd always been a 1:1 coaching girl and never baulked at investing in coaching, purely because I know—I do better with it. I move faster, I know I always want the shortcut and in a world where everything is either time or money—if you know me—you know that my time is PRECIOUS—so I'll invest money to save time. Moreso though—I actually get major anxiety when I'm operating (regardless of whether it's a good season or bad) in a silo. I need that deeper interaction and I also want to be strategizing, riffing and getting feedback from someone more advanced than me. And because I was never scared of investing, I always wanted the best and to me that always meant looking to work with coaches in a 1:1 capacity—which is always what I did. That is, until at the end of 2021 my coach suggested this and YOU GUYS—it was an absolute game changer, and I've never looked back. Tune into today's episode for all the details—and if you're not registered for this event next week—you're missing out because this masterclass
"She woke up for 15 minutes during her nap...WHY? How can I make her sleep?" "He played for 20 minutes with his trucks after bedtime, how can I make him sleep instead?" These are total normal questions I get from clients, and here is what I tell them, and I want you to know: You can't. You cannot control your child's eyelids closing and falling asleep. Moreso, I don't want you to, and I don't care at all if either of the above scenarios occur. These are totally normal things!In today's episode, I want to help you release the urge to try and make your baby or toddler the perfect sleeper. No one is. Instead? My goal through the process for any client (and anyone listening to this!) is that your child is given the gift of knowing how to put themselves to sleep (and back to sleep when they wake!) and you, as the parent, have the gift of being able to release. Release the urge to feel that you should or even can control their exact sleep stats (leave me alone, Nanit!) and instead have the confidence that you A) are offering your child sleep at times that are appropriate B) trusting your child has the skills and will do with that time what they want and C) you have the tools to know when to make a change or seek help if something changes that is really abnormal.

Renewable Energy Stock Picks -- and More, covers investments in renewable energy, Canadian sustainable companies, water investments, women's empowerment, plus… By Ron Robins, MBA Transcript & Links, Episode 134, July 12, 2024 Hello, Ron Robins here. So, welcome to this podcast episode 134 titled “Renewable Energy Stock Picks -- and More.” It's presented by Investing for the Soul. Investingforthesoul.com is your site for vital global ethical and sustainable investing mentoring, news, commentary, information, and resources. Now, remember that you can find a full transcript, and links to content – including stock symbols and bonus material – on this episode's podcast page located at investingforthesoul.com/podcasts. Also, a reminder. I do not evaluate any of the stocks or funds mentioned in these podcasts, nor do I receive any compensation from anyone covered in these podcasts. Furthermore, I will reveal to you any personal investments I have in the investments mentioned herein. Additionally, quotes about individual companies are brief. Please go to this podcast's webpage for links to the actual articles for more company and stock information. Also, some companies might be covered more than once and there are also 3 article links below that time didn't allow for me to cover here. ------------------------------------------------------------- These 50 Canadian corporations are betting big on green Now nearly all the articles covered in this episode relate to renewable energy investments – except this one. Though it's about Canadian companies, many of them will be of interest to ethical investors globally. Hence, I'm beginning with it and it's titled These 50 Canadian corporations are betting big on green. The editorial is by Rick Spence and appears on corporateknights.com. “Now in its 23rd year, the Best 50 helps track how Canadian businesses are meeting the low-carbon and green-transition challenge – as well as where they're getting stuck in the process… The companies that made the Best 50 are mostly corporations with more than $1 billion in annual revenues, as well as Crown corporations, large co-ops and members of the S&P/TSX Renewable Energy and Clean Technology Index. What sets them apart is their commitment to doing business differently – they're companies that derive significant revenue from greener products and services, invest in increasingly sustainable projects, and prioritize equity in their operations. Crucially, the companies' average sustainable investment (as a percentage of total investment) hit 58.9% this year, up 9% over last year's 49.7% – that's compared to just 8.4% for the average large Canadian corporation.” End quotes. Among the top public companies on the list are Brookfield Renewable Partners LP (NYSE:BEP), Wheaton Precious Metals Corp. (WPM), Cascades Inc. (CAS.TO), and BCE Inc. (BCE.TO). ------------------------------------------------------------- 1) Renewable Energy Stock Picks -- and More So, back to the renewable energy sector with this first article titled 3 Best Renewable Energy Stocks to Buy in July 2024, According to Analysts. It's by Sheryl Sheth and seen on nasdaq.com. Here are some of her comments. “1 Fluence Energy (NASDAQ:FLNC) is engaged in empowering the global clean energy transition by providing energy storage solutions. The company also offers cloud-based software solutions for renewables and energy storage. Importantly, Fluence Energy has the backing of two industry-leading companies, Siemens (DE:SIE) and AES Corp. (NYSE:AES)… On TipRanks, Fluence Energy stock has a Strong Buy consensus rating based on 12 Buys and three Hold recommendations. The average Fluence Energy price target of $30.21 implies an impressive 83.9% upside potential from current levels. Meanwhile, Fluence Energy shares have plunged 31.1% so far in 2024. 2. ReNew Energy Global (NASDAQ:RNW) India-based ReNew Energy Global is one of the largest renewable companies in the world, with a clean energy portfolio of roughly 15.6GW (gigawatts) on a gross basis as of May 31. The company provides innovative and sustainable decarbonization solutions for corporates. Plus, it engages in the production of wind, solar, and hydropower and manufactures solar PV (photovoltaic) cells… With six unanimous Buy ratings, ReNew Energy Global stock commands a Strong Buy consensus rating on TipRanks. The average ReNew Energy Global price target of $8.82 implies 45.1% upside potential from current levels. Year-to-date, ReNew Energy Global shares have lost 19.5%. 3. Clearway Energy, Inc. (NYSE:CWEN) claims to own one of the largest renewable energy portfolios in the U.S. The company has approximately 6,200 net MW (megawatts) of installed wind, solar, and battery energy storage systems. Plus, it owns another 2,500 net MW of environmentally-sound, highly efficient natural gas generation facilities. The company believes in rewarding shareholders with generous dividend payments… With six Buys and one Hold rating, Clearway Energy stock has a Strong Buy consensus rating on TipRanks. The average Clearway Energy Class C price target of $31 implies 27.6% upside potential from current levels. Clearway Energy shares have declined 8.4% so far in 2024.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- 2) Renewable Energy Stock Picks – and More Also, related to renewable energy is this article titled 3 ESG Funds to Buy As Sustainable Investing Gathers Steam. It's by Zacks Equity Research and found at au.sports.yahoo.com. Here are some comments on their picks from the Zack's analysts. “All of these funds carry a Zacks Mutual Fund Rank #2 (Buy). In addition, the minimum initial investment for these funds is within $5,000. We expect these funds to outperform their peers in the future… Unlike most of the fund-rating systems, the Zacks Mutual Fund Rank is not just focused on past performance but also on the likely future success of the fund. 1. Fidelity Select Environment and Alternative Energy Portfolio (FSLEX) The fund invests… in securities of companies mostly engaged in activities related to alternative and renewable energy, energy efficiency, pollution control, water infrastructure, waste and recycling technologies or other environmental support services. The non-diversified fund invests in U.S. and non-U.S. issuers alike… Fidelity Select Environment and Alternative Energy Portfolio has an annual expense ratio of 0.85%, which is below the category average of 1.09%. It has returned 4.9% over the past five years. 2. Parnassus Core Equity Fund - Investor Shares (PRBLX) aims for capital growth and current income through its investments… (It)… invests in large-capitalization companies in the United States that have long-term competitive advantages and relevancy, quality management teams and positive performance in the ESG criteria… Parnassus Core Equity Fund - Investor Shares has an annual expense ratio of 0.86%, which is below the category average of 0.93%. It has returned 9.1% over the past five years. 3. TIAA-CREF Core Impact Bond Fund Retail Class (TSBRX) The fund invests (most of) … its assets in bonds. TIAA-CREF Core Impact Bond Fund Retail Class gives particular consideration to environmental, social and governance criteria… TIAA-CREF Core Impact Bond Fund Retail Class has an annual expense ratio of 0.65%, which is below the category average of 0.80%. It has returned 3.2% over the past five years.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- 3) Renewable Energy Stock Picks -- and More And here is my next renewable energy article. It's titled The 3 Smartest Renewable Energy Stocks to Buy With $500 Right Now and is by Rich Duprey and found on investorplace.com. Now some brief quotes from Mr. Duprey on each of his picks. 1. NextEra Energy (NYSE:NEE) is the first renewable energy stock that investors should consider buying. It is the world's largest generator of renewable energy from the wind and sun and a top-tier stock in battery storage. At the end of 2023, NextEra had approximately 72 gigawatts (GW) of total capacity in its portfolio. Of that amount, half or 36 GW came from renewables, some 70% more than its nearest competitor with wind power represented as two-thirds of the total renewable capacity… NextEra Energy will be one of the top renewable energy stocks to buy that leads the way. 2. Brookfield Renewable Partners (NYSE:BEP) is the leading provider of hydropower in the country. It operates as one of the world's largest publicly traded platforms for renewable power and decarbonization solutions. Yet where 85% of Brookfield's portfolio was once hydropower generation, today it stands at about 50% as the company grew through mergers and acquisitions… Although it primarily has projects in North America and Latin America, more recently as the Neoen acquisition shows, it is expanding more towards Europe and Asia. Brookfield Renewable Partners is a renewable energy stock to buy because of its hydro sector dominance that cannot be easily, or readily, replicated. 3. First Solar (NASDAQ:FSLR) is the world's leading manufacturer of thin-film solar panel technology and a pure-play in the solar panel space. It focuses on the U.S. and Indian markets where the greatest booking potential lays, particularly in the domestic utility-scale market… First Solar has built a solid financial foundation and a strong balance sheet to weather future storms. Its thin-film cadmium telluride technology is distinctive in the industry that benefits from its simple manufacturing process. First Solar should also benefit from the Biden administration's protectionist trade policies. It recently imposed high-import barriers on cheaper Chinese panels.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- 4) Renewable Energy Stock Picks -- and More This last article takes us away from renewable energy. It's titled 6 impact investing firms and funds that are top picks from U.S. News. The article's authors are staff at equities.com. Now some brief quotes from the article. “Impact investing firms 1. Eaton Vance Corp. (EV) When this investment management firm bought Calvert Investment Management in 2016, it acquired a company that's been involved in responsible investing for years. It launched an ESG bond portfolio in 1987 and a non-U.S. ESG portfolio in 1992. In 1995, it debuted Calvert Impact Capital. Now, Calvert Impact offers notes targeting community investment, carbon reduction and a more inclusive banking system. It also offers several small business recovery funds. 2. Impax Asset Management Group PLC. (IPXAF) This is another firm that grew its impact investing offerings through an acquisition. In 2017, it announced that it would buy Pax World Management. Impax has worked with the World Bank to structure an impact bond to finance 300,000 water purifiers for schools and other institutions in Vietnam… 3. Trillium Asset Management. This ESG-focused fund provider offers impact investing strategies targeting sustainable agriculture, low-income housing, job creation and retention, Native American community development, financial services that help people avoid predatory payday lenders, environmental sustainability, development of domestic and international communities and child care. It typically directs investments to nonprofit loan funds or development banks and credit unions targeting historically underserved sections of society. Impact investing funds 1. First Trust Nasdaq Clean Edge Green Energy Index Fund (QCLN) This alternative energy fund tracks an index of securities issued by companies involved in advanced materials, energy intelligence, renewable electricity generation and renewable fuels, and energy storage and conversion. The $702 million fund has an expense ratio of 0.59%, or $59 per year for every $10,000 invested. It also paid a 30-day SEC yield of 1.2% as of the end of May. (It)… is up more than 60% over the past five years, though the last few years have been rough going for the fund. 2. Invesco Water Resources ETF (PHO) This ETF tracks an index of companies involved in the conservation and purification of water for homes, businesses and industries. Most of its holdings focused on resource security and basic needs, with a smaller percentage allocated to climate action. The $2.1 billion fund has an expense ratio of 0.6% and is up more than 80% over the past five years. 3. YWCA Women's Empowerment ETF (WOMN) This fund hits on a theme that is big in the impact investing community: women's empowerment. (It)… tracks an index of companies that ‘have strong policies and practices in support of women's empowerment and gender equality,' the fund's website says. Impact Shares donates all the net advisory profits from (the fund) to the YWCA. The $56 million ETF has an expense ratio of 0.75% and is up more than 74% over the past five years, beating its category average.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Honorable Mentions that time didn't allow me to cover here 1.

Candice Simmons is no stranger to showing up in a big way for historically excluded communities. In this episode of "I HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY”, hosts Samí Haiman-Marrero and Chris Majocha engage in a profound dialogue with Candice, who is a seasoned expert in the financial industry and a dedicated advocate for community empowerment. They dive deep into the themes of commitment to purpose, the power of advocacy, and the importance of investing in under-resourced communities. About 7 years ago, Samí was working on jumpstarting a special project in a working-class community where 59% of the families lived under the poverty level. It's when she met Candice for the first time. Only ten minutes into her presentation, Candice committed to helping. Why so quickly? She knew this neighborhood well – it was where she lived when she arrived in Central Florida with her family. Candice shares her inspiring journey, from her robust background in banking to her transformative role in non-profit development and racial equity advancement. "Leadership is not just a title; it's an inherent quality everyone possesses, capable of initiating change," she shares. Candice's commitment to purpose illustrates the significant impact of leadership that prioritizes people and community over personal gains, stressing that it's critical to help create strong ecosystems that are self-sustaining. She also explains that when investing in under-resourced communities, it's important to understand that it takes time to see results and exercise grace. From her viewpoint, true dedication involves a deep commitment to the communities you serve, emphasizing long-term engagement over short-term gains. Moreso, Candice goes on to underscore that leaders must consider community benefit as the primary measure of success, moving away from self-centered metrics. "We must remove ourselves from the center. We can't approach our work with ego; we must focus on what the community needs," she states. Some key takeaways from this powerful conversation: The health of a community depends on the strength of its supporting ecosystem, promoting independence and sustainable growth. Understanding your core motivations and how they drive your actions and impacts. Everyone has the potential to effect change and lead within their own capacities. We should prioritize the well-being and advancement of communities over personal achievements. Leaders who commit to purpose need to find time to celebrate even the small wins and to rest to recharge. Tune in to gain invaluable insights into how leadership, commitment, and community focus can create lasting change and foster a culture where everyone thrives. #Urbander #UdoU #IHAVESOMETHINGTOSAY #podcast #mindset
This week we had the pleasure of interviewing Rory Rackham, Lead Game Designer for GGG! He's had an impact on so many (maybe all?) aspects of Path of Exile and has been a major voice in the development of the game since PoE itself was in diapers; a true cornerstone of the company. In episode 237 we talked about the life of Rory, what led him to GGG, how the ride has been, where it's going, and snack bars! We had such a good time getting to know him, that we were surprised when the questions came to an end! Thanks, Rory for giving us your time! We had an awesome time getting to know you.

On this episode of the Innocence Redeemed podcast, I will be talking about the upcoming eclipse, what God is trying to show His people and the unbelieving alike. America is approaching a Nineveh moment; Will she repent? Moreso, will God's people repent? I will also be talking about false prophets and what many of them are trying to say in this late hour and the ways many are being led into confusion and deception in this late hour. I will be talking about what the Lord says about false prophets and discussing how to identify them and the divining spirit and the danger of having itching ears, as well as the consequences to the false prophets/teachers and the danger in falling for these deceptions. https://www.innocenceredeemed.blog/2024/03/25/new-podcast-false-prophets-the-eclipse-vs-the-real-deal/
Dear listeners, I have yet another very important tale for you today, and one of absolute truth! This is above and beyond the tale that I laid upon your mind in the podcast Camping Under The Stars, Vol. 5 (Sanctuary), which was a mere 2 weeks of living off of the land and surviving on hot dogs, bananas, and peanut butter. Dear listeners, this tale stretches across 3 years. 3 long YEARS!! It is not one that was pleasant, but it had a(n eventual) happy ending. How does that tie into today's episode?? Well, let me tell you....... In a time not long ago, during a weird and upside-down world of toilet paper shortages and no haircuts lived a content little dude whom we will call Poemhobbit. He lived in his happy village with his happy family and created musings of aural jewels for people all over the world which he delivered like an Easter egg. Well, for some odd reason, Poemhobbit and his family felt that they should travel to a land unknown, so he sold his tiny cottage quickly and with a prosperous outcome. Poemhobbit was so happy! But, before he and his family would decide on the perfect place, they would live in a less-than-desirable village that was infested by a sub-societal mob of unhappy zombies that smelled of burning skunk cigarettes. 'It is okay', thought Poemhobbit, 'it will not last for more than 3 months. I will take this negative experience and thrive, nonetheless. These 3 months will go by quickly and we will have departed before any misery sets in!' And so it was..... However, those 3 months turned into 6 months. Then, into a year. And, yet another year. And another year after that. And anot........wait, how many years is that?!? So, Poemhobbit was stuck in this prison-like dystopian cubicle for 3 years. And, the misery did set in. In fact, it festered like a cancer. The family was unhappy, hope had abandoned them, their dreams turned into dusty cobwebs, and escaping was something that was never even talked about without malice and regret. Poemhobbit was miserable, and his joy for the arts became a chore and a cumbersome endeavor. It was difficult for Poemhobbit to weave sounds and spread joy when it had escaped him. But, Poemhobbit never gave up. He didn't always allow his family to know of his struggles, and instead fought to shine positive light on the negative situation. He fueled them with his (fake) optimism and assurance. Moreso, Poemhobbit had to really convince himself that his misery was perception, and that his ambitions would pull him out of the quicksand. He had to be the beacon of light, the sunbeam to those that depended upon him, and somehow find the strength to burn through the shadows and dust. 'Stay strong', Poemhobbit told himself, 'and let those that follow you tread upon a path of optimism and diligence.' Well, as fate would have it, persistence finally did win. Poemhobbit held out and never stopped raining hope and optimism upon his family. They were eventually able to escape the inferno of stinky skunk cigarettes burned by sketchy circus clowns. This journey in time was very debilitating physically, emotionally, and spiritually. If Poemhobbit gave up hope (which nearly happened many, many times), then he would have let down his family. In the end, Poemhobbit found a nice cottage in a small village where he had laid his wishes. Fortune smiled down upon his family, and the fire inside him rekindled once again. The struggle for comfort had finally subsided. Sometimes, to succeed you need the positive person around you to inspire you and light up your ambitions. Sometimes that person needs to be you. While the modern world wants us to let out everything and seek comfort from our hardships, your boy Poemhob........... I mean Tonepoet, believes that controlling this like a water spigot and knowing when, how much, and to who you water your hardships to is an exercise of optimal self-control. Seek a co-pilot that can give you guidance when you need it, so that you can ignite the light inside those that rely on you for assurance during tough times.

As long-promised for our 52nd episode! -- What's a "Crisis"? What's a "multiverse"? What's a "52"? These words get thrown around a lot in DC Comics, as well as in off-page discussions of their lore, continuity, and publishing history. In this episode we'll attempt to give a basic Crisis 101 overview for the total newcomer, discussing the 1985 continuity-streamlining event "Crisis on Infinite Earths", and its 2005-06 sequels "Infinite Crisis" and "52"! Mike LOVES these stories, but -- unlike most things covered on The Very Fine Comic Book Podcast -- these are not recommended as "casual reading"!

I couldn't do the same thing and recap another historic home loss solo. So I invited my old college roommates (we ran the block 2011-2015) to come on and share some thoughts on just what is going with the Hoosiers, where does Indiana go, and just to ultimately console one another on what has become a season to quickly forget. Then it's onto the Indiana news, including a bit more bummer there as Indiana loses out on Derick Queen. Then it's to the conference news, including Olivier Nkamhoua electing for season ending surgery. Then it's a Hoosier History Hit.

A funny quote goes like this, “The tax code is like a foreign language, nobody understands it, and it's always changing.” Paying taxes is a legal obligation of every citizen as it ensures that the government has the necessary funds to provide essential services and maintain public infrastructure. However, it can seem overwhelming, especially for those who are not familiar with financial matters or the nitty gritty of tax laws. Hence, we must seek guidance and education to not perceive it as a burden but as an opportunity to strategically manage our finances and minimize our tax liabilities. Therefore, the more you talk to experts in fields where you are having difficulty, the more you know. Moreso, in financial matters, we must be wise and proactive in staying informed about changes in tax regulations. Remember, exploring available tax-saving strategies and seeking professional advice can lead to maximizing potential savings and reducing the stress associated with tax season.

In this episode with Amanda Han and Matthew MacFarland, we will guide you in a step-by-step process to optimize your tax strategy and maximize your savings. Our conversation touches on the difference between filing and planning taxes, the importance of proactive tax planning, and a deeper understanding of what bonus depreciation law is. Furthermore, we explore effective tactics for leveraging both short-term and long-term real estate investments to their fullest potential within the tax framework. Tune in as we unlock the secrets to strategic tax planning and financial freedom. "Most people are just hoping and praying they don't get a big surprise tax bill.

The neo-Babylonian empire established itself as the dominant world empire from 586 – 539 BCE. There has been a lot of history left out of our Bible studies that gives us important information as to the political, biblical and religious changes that happened as a result of the Babylonian captivity. Moreso, not understanding these changes that happened during the physical captivity in Babylon has damaged our understanding of the spiritual Babylonian captivity that many are living in today, and that few will heed the warning to “come out of.” I know that this is hard for many to wrap their minds around, which is why I have felt led to take my time and unpack this as thoroughly as I possibly can. It is really important to understand how this captivity affected the Yahudim (Jews) in all of these ways because the Babylonian captivity was a watershed moment for not only Judaism, but Christianity as well. And when I say watershed, I mean that this is THE TURNING POINT in which things were never the same after this moment/event in time. This captivity changed everything for the Hebrew people, and it has influenced the Christian faith today, yet most don't realize it. This is why I have mentioned before that part of my “plowing season” comes with the intention of pulling the metaphorical weeds from their roots. This is what Yahuah has shown me in what it means to “labor for the harvest.” The weeds have to be pulled before anything can be planted, or else my labor will be in vain. The other thing that is important to remember is that as we will discuss in upcoming episodes, when the 70-year prophesied captivity ended for the Yahudim, the majority of people did not return to rebuild the Temple. They did not want to leave Babylon. They had adapted to being held captive. It's very interesting how the spiritual climate in Babylon is similar to the climate in the hearts of Believers today. We don't want to see Babylon for what it is because we're comfortable where we're at. We don't want to leave; we don't want to come out of it. Many people are unable to recognize the real spiritual war for our souls because they've adjusted to living in it. However, I believe as we learn and discern the roots of how we got to where we're at today, many more will realize what has happened and what it means to be in the spiritual captivity of Babylon today, and once they do, they will quite literally flee from it. This was certainly the case for me, and I haven't looked back since. I stand in faith and prayer, believing that as we continue to unravel history, it will fill some serious gaps of the lack of understanding and knowledge in the body of Messiah.The goal is always reconciliation.

This episode is a unique look into the mind of one of our service's senior leaders days before a major hearing. Moreso than a typical CSPAN briefing of soundbites, the lister will be able to hear, in detail, plans to improve quality of life and lethality of Marines. The 20th Sergeant Major of the Marine Corps (SMMC), Carlos Ruiz, discusses the initiatives he plans to champion during his tenure as the SMMC and how Quality of Life improvement ultimately makes the Marine Corps a more lethal organization and force for the American public. One of the most transformational questions asked of SgtMaj Ruiz is the state of the barracks. SMMC Ruiz discusses how the Marine Corps, at the most senior levels, are taking positive and tangible action to alleviate this most common and consequential of issues. SMMC Ruiz details the renovation plans and how the ability to move Marines may not be the ideal solution. SMMC Ruiz also details how the ability to press the ‘I believe' button is important and helps the whole process. One of the key adjacent tangents around the barracks issue is the use of Social Media as both a positive and a negative in allowing leaders to see what is behind typical ‘painting the rocks' inspections and true issues in the barracks. The barracks issue leads into larger priorities the SMMC is working on, specifically those issues tied to recruiting and retaining a quality force. The use of quality of life means the individual Marine needs to be looked at as a person and not merely as a number to fill a billet. Understanding that individual Marines have individual goals, lives, and, more importantly, options means the Marine Corps has to compete with a burgeoning American economy and the private sector. This key issue girds a lot of the arguments currently being aligned under Quality of Life 2030 initiatives. The great tacticians will understand how best to use all of their supporting fires. In the battle to increase the Quality of Life 2030 for Marines, SMMC Ruiz understands and leans into using non-traditional and non-Marine Corps aligned organizations, such as PB Abbatte. Similarly, the increased and prominent use of Social Media allows the SMMC an unvarnished look into the Force and also allows Marines to see others providing skills perhaps unavailable in their own units. 1st Battalion 8th Marine Regiment is brought up as an example of a unit using Social Media for positive outcomes and showing how other units in the Marine Corps have used this new paradigm to their advantage. Quality of Life extends to Marines' careers and how they are brought along in their journey to become a future Sergeant Major of the Marine Corps. Understanding the Marine Corps' mission ultimately comes first does not mean Marines do not rate to have an honest conversation and transparency in how the Marine Corps plans to use them. Balancing the new generation of empowered, knowledge and opportunity-wise, Marines with the realities of the service is another priority SMMC wants to improve on while in his seat. While this episode does touch on leadership issues (taking care of subordinates, being a good sensor, and understanding how to accomplish the mission), it is more impactful for understanding the thought process and careful deliberation and contemplation senior/executive level leaders undergo to make their best arguments on behalf of their services and ultimately those who make the majority of those services strength, the enlisted.

Imagine waking up one day and realizing that your entire life's savings were at risk due to reckless financial decisions made by major global institutions. In this captivating episode, we dissect the tumultuous events that led to the 2008 financial crisis, analyzing the reckless subprime lending, and the colossal investment banks who bet against their own junk product. We shine a light on the few who foresaw this storm coming and went against the grain to bet against the housing market. Ever wondered if the new financial reforms after the 2008 crisis really made a difference? We'll take you through the significant reforms, including the Dodd-Frank Act in the US and the Banking Act of 2009 in the UK. We ask tough questions about their effectiveness and highlight the importance of a collaborative, global effort to ensure their efficacy. Moreso, we emphasize the critical role of financial literacy in safeguarding our finances. And what about financial education? It's a taboo subject for many, but it's an area we should all be focusing on. We delve into the lack of financial literacy, the difficulty in discussing salaries and financial resources, and the power of negotiation for better contracts and promotions. We also examine the role of speculation in decisions like remortgages and investments, stressing the need to be aware of the risks involved. Let's not forget the lessons we learned - or failed to learn - from the 2008 financial crisis. Tune in for an insightful discussion.

If you appreciate this work, consider supporting it - https://www.patreon.com/seekgodtogether Today we will read Revelation 20:13-15. These verses say, “Then the sea gave up its dead, and Death and Hades gave up their dead; all were judged according to their works. Death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire. And anyone not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire.” If we're going to take passages that indicate blinding beauty and the redemption of all things seriously, then we must also be willing to take difficult and painful passages seriously. Is there anything scarier than a lake of fire? Moreso, is there anything scarier than a God Who would throw anyone there? But just like with anything scary, it's best to look it square in the eye and see it for what it is. To begin, where does this passage live? It's in Revelation - literally “Apocalypse” or “Revealing.” Ultimately scripture is apocalyptic and revelatory. Hence “revelation.” The words are dripping in symbolism, poetry, and deep meaning. Sometimes scripture interprets it for us. Most often it doesn't. And spoiler alert, absolutely no one understands it. Some pretend to, some think they do, but there is no one qualified to dispense the mysteries of God save God Himself, and He seems content to leave us guessing. Just look at the passage. The sea, whatever that is, gives up its dead. Likewise, Death and Hades (what are they?) give up their dead. And not only are their dead (or some of them) transferred to the lake of fire, but Death and Hades themselves are thrown into the lake of fire. Do you understand this? I don't. Nor does anyone. Also, what criteria is used to determine if someone is thrown into the lake of fire? Their works. Works are the judging criteria. For the protestant this seems to fly in the face of being saved “By faith alone” and not by works. This simply adds more weight to the fact that we really don't know. But there are takeaways from this passage that we should consider carefully. First, and most sobering, scripture is not afraid to scare us. Whatever the ultimate reality is behind this lake of fire, it's bad. It is a bad thing to stiff-arm God. It is literally death to not be found in the book of life. God's judgement has real teeth. And you do not want to be on the receiving end of it. Second, anyone in the “book of life” was not thrown into the fire. God is life. Jesus has life in Himself. Life comes from God. And that is why, even in the context of the most sobering of passages and existential threats like the lake of fire, we worship - we pursue God. Because it is only in Him that there is life. Third, and finally, a bit of conjecture. If God Himself is a consuming fire, and if the final judgement is a lake of fire, and if God will ultimately be all in all so that there is no where or no thing that isn't brought into right standing under Him, then is it a stretch to say that the lake of fire is God Himself? And is it such a stretch to say that exposure to a glorious God without life would be a consuming death of sorts? Could it be that the lake fire is simply a way of encountering God without the life of Jesus and the Holy Spirit, God Himself enlivening you, enabling You to experience His white hot energy? If so, and why not, then the greatest human pursuit is to pursue God. And once again we are back to this moment of seeking Him for the one thing He gives freely for the asking - life. And it is the burden of every human soul to ask it for themselves. “God, giver of life, give me Your life. Allow me to experience You in a glorious and life-giving way both now and forever.”

Scott Schara says he has only been awake for a year, he's done a lot of a newly awake man including a landmark lawsuit that may take apart the deadly and evil Covid hospital protocols. His awakening was a harsh one. He took his beloved daughter, Grace, who was 19-years-old to a hospital because, Scott said, “he bought into the propaganda.” Soon, Grace was dead. Scott has meticulously detailed what, in my opinion, is a case of murder or negligent homicide. According to the lawsuit he has successfully filed--a victory itself given the rigging of the system you will hear Scott reveal--the hospital very quickly decided to put Grace on the exact three drugs administered to dying people in the last days of hospice. You will also hear Scott describe what records seem to indicate are gross, cold, brutal lies like telling Scott and his wife they should get ready for Grace to start eating on her own and walking around . . . on the very same day a doctor signed a Do Not Resuscitate Order without informing the family. When Grace died, her parents were forced to watch on Facetime. One would expect Scott to be an angry and bitter man. Instead, he's resolute, focused, driven and brilliant. Moreso, he sits firmly in the land of God, the Holy Spirit driving this righteous battle and with his heart hurting but full as he knows God will reunite he and Grace with Jesus after Scott finishes the race marked out for him, the race to end these horrific abuses.What does God say? Genesis 50:2020 You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives.1 Samuel 17:47All those gathered here will know that it is not by sword or spear that the Lord saves; for the battle is the Lord's, and He will give all of you into our hands.Esther 4:1414 For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your father's family will perish.

February is here and it's Black History Month! This year, we're doing things a little differently on the Be Well, Sis podcast. We want to honor our ancestors in a unique way - by taking care of ourselves. We'll be exploring how we can use these qualities to create a life that's more fulfilling and meaningful, not just for ourselves, but for those around us as well. Be sure to tune in every Tuesday for new and insightful episodes featuring brilliant women invested in our collective healing and growth. Guest Feature: Kelley Bonner, Expert Company Culture Strategist, Award Winning Podcaster, and Founder of Burn Bright Consulting, transforms workplaces by reducing burnout and bias, resulting in increased innovation and inclusion. She provides a framework for leaders to understand the deeper organizational issues that lead to symptoms of burnout and how to solve them at their core. Having served on the Gender Policy Committee for the White House as well as the International Women's Economic Security Council, Kelley impacts culture and policy across the globe. She was also hand-picked by the Biden Administration to assist in the development of a national framework for workplace safety and harassment. Kelley has worked with several federal and international organizations to create safer environments and strategies for violence prevention, including the U.S. Military, the Library of Congress, National Academy of Sciences, The United Nations, and NATO. In our conversation, we delve into self-compassion, her philosophy of ‘to heal and to help”, giving yourself space to explore your identity and passion, and what it means to embrace a life of ease.
