Store Participation DOES NOT VARY Branding NOT withstandingHear me out? I have an anecdote that tells of the angry lady that taught me breaking patterns and minimal warmth alters the future. Working a counter at a C-Store in between managing Gas + convenience store locations, going home to a an unrelenting verbally abusive wife who had an endless list of demands to match her impossible to satisfy even more endless grievances , while running a side hustle on Ebay before the phrase side hustle, or the post 9-11 things were things, and using any remaining energy between all that and 2-3 hours of sleep, showering and eating something while NOT simultaneously working with the free hand. 200 cups of coffee sold daily at my primary location was a count that made bosses unhappy and less than 10,000 Gallons of gas pumped in 24 hours was something that could cause me to be demoted or unemployed if either happened at the wrong time of year.

In May 1973, Assata Olugbala Shakur was involved in a shootout on the New Jersey Turnpike in which she was accused of killing New Jersey State Trooper Werner Foerster and assaulting Trooper James Harper. This resulted in her indictment of first-degree murder of Foerster and seven other felonies related to the shootout. A member of the Black Panther Party, she became a prime target of the Federal Bureau of Investigations Counterintelligence Program. When she joined the Black Liberation Army and went into hiding, between 1973 and 1977, she was placed on the FBIs Most Wanted List for three bank robberies, the kidnapping and murder of two drug dealers, and the attempted murder of two New Jersey police officers. In March 1977 Assata Shakur was convicted of murdering state trooper Werner Forrester and was imprisoned. Two years later she broke out of the maximum-security wing of Clinton Correctional Facility in New Jersey, pistol in hand, as she and three cohorts sped out of the prison grounds. In 1984 she was granted political asylum in Cuba where she has lived ever since. On May 2, 2013, the FBI added her to the Most Wanted Terrorist List, the first woman to be listed. "Assata Shakur: A 20th Century Escaped Slave" is the story of Assata Shakur, before she became a fugitive and since.https://amzn.to/3VZGd6fBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

pWotD Episode 3069: Assata Shakur Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 280,211 views on Friday, 26 September 2025 our article of the day is Assata Shakur.Assata Olugbala Shakur ( ə-SAH-tə shə-KOOR; born JoAnne Deborah Byron; July 16, 1947 – September 25, 2025), also known as Joanne Chesimard, was an American political activist who was a member of the Black Liberation Army (BLA). In 1977, she was convicted in the murder of state trooper Werner Foerster during a shootout on the New Jersey Turnpike in 1973. She escaped from prison in 1979 and was wanted by the FBI, with a $1 million FBI reward for information leading to her capture, and an additional $1 million reward offered by the New Jersey attorney general.Born in Flushing, Queens, Shakur grew up in New York City and Wilmington, North Carolina. After she ran away from home several times, her aunt, who would later act as one of her lawyers, took her in. Shakur became involved in political activism at Borough of Manhattan Community College and City College of New York. After graduation she began using the name Assata Shakur and briefly joined the Black Panther Party, before joining the BLA.Between 1971 and 1973, she was charged with several crimes and was the subject of a multi-state manhunt. In May 1973, Shakur was arrested after being wounded in a shootout on the New Jersey Turnpike. Also involved in the shootout were officers Werner Foerster and James Harper, and BLA members Sundiata Acoli and Zayd Malik Shakur. Harper was wounded, and Zayd Shakur and Foerster were killed. Between 1973 and 1977, Shakur was charged with murder, attempted murder, armed robbery, and kidnapping in relation to the shootout and six other incidents. She was acquitted on three of the charges and three were dismissed. In 1977, she was convicted of the murder of State Trooper Foerster and of seven other felonies related to the 1973 shootout. Her defense argued that medical evidence exonerated her, i.e., her right arm was shot and paralyzed while her hands were raised, and she would have been unable to fire a weapon.While serving a life sentence for murder in New Jersey's Clinton Correctional Facility for Women, Shakur escaped in 1979, with assistance from the BLA and the May 19 Communist Organization. In 1984, she was granted political asylum in Cuba, where she remained for the rest of her life despite U. S. government efforts to have her extradited. In 2013, she was added to the FBI Most Wanted Terrorists list, as Joanne Deborah Chesimard, and was the first woman on the list.Shakur died on September 25th, 2025 at the age of 78 due to "health problems and advanced age" according to the Cuban Foreign Ministry.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:26 UTC on Saturday, 27 September 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Assata Shakur on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Ayanda.

When Lenny Nebretski began his career with the New Jersey State Police in 1993, detectives tracked organized crime connections with yarn on corkboards and case files thick as phone books. Today, as a leader in law enforcement technology, he's helping transform policing with solutions that turn hours of investigation into seconds of analysis.This fascinating conversation tracks the evolution of police work through Lenny's unique perspective – from his early days as a road trooper patrolling the "city on wheels" of the New Jersey Turnpike, to specialized work in organized crime intelligence, to building real-time crime centers that give officers critical information before they arrive on scene.Lenny shares gripping stories from his investigations into loan shark operations tied to the Gambino crime family, offering a rare glimpse into the methodical detective work required before the digital age. The transition to his current role in the private sector highlights how former officers are bringing their field experience to technology development, creating tools specifically designed for the unique challenges of modern policing.The discussion explores how Real-Time Crime Centers and a Peregrine integrated data platform are serving as force multipliers for departments struggling with recruitment and retention, allowing them to accomplish more with fewer resources. Particularly compelling is the examination of how these technologies must balance powerful capabilities with robust privacy protections and civil liberties safeguards.Whether you're in law enforcement, interested in criminal justice technology, or simply fascinated by the intersection of policing and innovation, this episode offers valuable insights into how modern tools are helping officers serve their communities more effectively while maintaining the human connections that remain at the core of good policing.#police #lawenforcement #cops #policemonitor #policeoversight #policeoversightmonitor #bridgethegap #bethechange Join our Discord!! https://discord.gg/BdjeTEAc

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1060: Steve Greenfield sounds the alarm on rising repair and insurance costs, Tesla loses its charger deal on the New Jersey Turnpike, and Meta doubles down on AI-generated advertising—even as trust from brands wavers.Show Notes with links:Collision repair costs are skyrocketing and insurance premiums are following suit. At ASOTU CON, Steve Greenfield broke down the challenges facing OEMs and dealers as vehicles become more complex, harder to repair, and more expensive to insure, saying “this has me more worried than anything else right now.”Tesla is pulling its chargers from the New Jersey Turnpike after the state awarded an exclusive deal to another provider. The decision led Elon Musk to cry foul, but the change seems more about contracts and control than conspiracy.Tesla built 64 Superchargers across 8 Turnpike stations under a 2020 agreement.NJ Turnpike Authority chose not to renew, awarding exclusivity to Applegreen.Tesla calls the move disappointing but says it has 116 alternative stalls ready nearby.Elon Musk called the decision “corruption” despite providing no supporting evidence.Applegreen will now supply EV charging at all 21 Turnpike service areas.Meta is leaning hard into artificial intelligence, announcing plans to let brands generate entire ad campaigns with AI by the end of next year. While the potential for automation is high, many advertisers are questioning the transparency and reliability of Meta's growing ad-tech empire.Meta will allow brands to create full ad campaigns from a single product image.Meta's AI will personalize ads in real time based on user location and environment—e.g., showing a sneaker on a city street for urban users and on a hiking trail for rural ones.This dynamic rendering aims to increase relevance and engagement, particularly for smaller advertisers with limited creative budgets.Advertising made up 97% of Meta's revenue in 2024, with much of it being reinvested back into AI.Ad executives remain skeptical, with one saying, “No clients will trust what they spit out.”Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Someone recently asked Bishop Caggiano: “How can I become a faithful witness?” As he reflected on this in the car on the New Jersey Turnpike, Bishop realized there's no simple answer. The recipe is like minestrone soup – it has many ingredients! So on today's Let Me Be Frank, using the many feast days that kick off the month of October as a guide, is Bishop Caggiano's minestrone soup of faithfully witnessing to the faith. Buon appetito!

I Become A Dad!by Sénor Longo. Listen to the  ► Podcast at Connected.I drove south until I was able to get onto I-78, following that through Jersey City to the New Jersey Turnpike. We moved along at a steady pace and fairly quickly due no small degree to the E-Z Pass I'd kept after moving from New York to North Carolina. We didn't have to stop to get a ticket or to pay at the southern terminus of the Turnpike, nor did we have to stop in the long lines at either the Delaware Memorial Bridge or at one of the toll booths on I-95 in Delaware.Our first stop was about two hours after leaving, around 11:20, at the last rest stop on the Turnpike. I needed to put Lady out for a walk and Jenny and I needed a bathroom break, too. By now we had our routine down pat. Jenny walked into the restroom while I took Lady onto the lawn. I had already poured water into her bowl on the sidewalk when Jenny reappeared with unwanted attention from a guy who looked to be in his late thirties. Twice I saw Jenny try to walk away from him and twice he grabbed her arm to stop her. Bad move; Lady also saw him. I let go of her leash and she was bounding down the walkway less than a second later.Lady stopped when she reached Jenny, but even 100 feet away I could see her anger at his touching her mistress. The hair on the back of her neck was up and I could see other travelers back away cautiously. Jenny calmly took Lady's leash and it was clear to all that Lady was only a second away from taking down Jenny's admirer. She was in attack mode; rear legs bent and ready to spring, fangs bared; a low guttural growl coming from her throat. Only her rigid discipline and training saved that man's life. I could see Jenny explaining that to the man as she turned away, leading Lady back to me.“Thanks, darling; he was making a real ass of himself. He stopped me on my way in and ignored my telling him that I was a very happily married woman. I couldn't believe that he was still there when I walked out of the ladies' room. What on earth did he possibly think; that I'd jump into a car with a total stranger for a quickie? Eew! Thank you, too, Lady,” she said as she ruffled Lady's ears.I left to use the facilities, and on the way some guy told me that I had a dangerous dog. “Yes and no,” I replied. “She's a danger to anyone who tries to hurt either my wife or me, but she's extremely well trained. That man was a fool, but he was in no real danger unless he put his hand on my wife again. Neither my dog nor I would have accepted that a third time.” I turned away to enter the building. We stopped for gas before continuing. Gas prices in New Jersey are relatively low and there's always an attendant to man the pump and wash your windshield. Jersey was the only place I knew of where that was the norm. We stopped again around one that afternoon for a quick lunch and again around four before stopping for the night around 6:30. For the first time since getting Lady I had trouble with the motel's registration. The clerk absolutely refused to allow us to register with Lady. “Have you ever heard of the ADA; the Americans with Disabilities Act,” I asked. “That's why you have ramps and bathrooms that are handicapped accessible. Part of the federal law covers service dogs like Lady or dogs for the blind. You'd better check with your manager or owner. I'd hate to have to sue you for being turned away.”He did phone the owner and from the little I heard he wasn't too happy about what he was told. He tried repeatedly to argue his point, but apparently got nowhere.Eventually, he hung up the phone and reluctantly told us, “I've been advised to apologize and offer the room on the house.” Instead, Jenny and I said, “No thanks,” turned away and walked out. We stayed instead at a Best Western just down the road. Not a word was said about our service dog.This trip would normally take about ten hours. With Lady, I figured about twelve because of all the extra stops we had to make. That was why Jenny and I had driven almost eight hours that first day. We wanted to get home by noon so we could hit the supermarket. Other than the occasional can and a jar of peanut butter, there was nothing much in the house to eat.That's almost exactly what happened. We turned into the driveway at 11:43, remembering just in time to press the remote for the gate. I doubted that either of us was as happy as Lady. She ran around the back yard and in and out of the garage aimlessly until Jenny and I had removed everything from the SUV. I had to admit that the BMW was a good investment. It rode well and got great gas mileage, even if it needed premium fuel. Jenny told me that both her car and mine were twin-turbocharged, whatever the hell that means. I know a lot about computers, but almost nothing about cars.We shopped most of the afternoon, spending hundreds to fill our refrigerator and pantry. Once we were done Jenny insisted we go to the range. I threw the clubs into my trunk and Lady climbed into the rear seat. The first time we'd taken her she raced out onto the range the instant I hit, thinking apparently that this was a game; some kind of fetch. Today she simply sat by our clubs watching and protecting us from the occasional vicious squirrel.That night after grilling a thick steak that we ate with a salad I retreated to my study. There was something I needed to check on. I had a program that, when opened, showed a screen of text; not words or sentences, but line after line of random letters and symbols. When a certain password is entered the text dissolves leaving a series of email addresses and their corresponding passwords. Why go through all of this, you ask? Because as I mentioned earlier I've had some shady clients; clients on the wrong side of the law; and I can't afford to be caught communicating with them. Once you go online you should always assume that everything you do is public and subject to scrutiny from the government or anyone else who might be interested.Sitting at my keyboard I accessed my home page on the internet. From there I typed in the URL for the University of Chicago and from there a university in New Zealand. Most universities have decent security, but anyone like me can get through it without too much difficulty. Should anyone inquire it would appear as though someone in the University of Chicago library had hacked into the University of Auckland. From there it was safe to access the email I'd used to contact the motorcycle gang.There was a message and several photos I thought Jenny would find interesting. I had no idea how they had managed to get a camera inside a state prison and I wasn't about to ask, but here in all his glory was a severely beaten former sheriff from Waterloo, Iowa. I was laughing so hard as I called Jenny that I could barely get her name out.She came in wondering what was going on so I explained then I showed the photos of her stepfather with his two black eyes, bandage on his forehead, and his arm in a cast, bandages wrapped tightly around his torso; a sure sign of bruised or broken ribs. She took one look and joined me in laughter. “This was you, wasn't it? Some friends or contacts you have?”“I cannot tell a lie, but I do plead the fifth; a person does not have to testify if his answer might incriminate him.”She leaned down to kiss me then whispered, “Thanks.” Then she kissed me again. I scrolled down the screen to read the text again; “What a complete fucktard this asshole is. He thinks he is still a hot shit, trying to boss everyone around. He has pissed off all the prisoners who have met him and more than half the guards. He'll be lucky to live out his sentence. Doubt he will. Thanks for the upgrade. It's working great. A friend” After deleting the message I went to join my beautiful wife on the deck.Jenny and I spent the next three weeks having fun; going to Bird Island on the southern end of Sunset Beach in the boat with Lady, or playing golf, or going to the beach. The only other thing we did was prepare for our visitors. There were no direct flights to either Myrtle Beach or to Wilmington, North Carolina, roughly fifty miles north of us so I phoned Executive Jet to make the arrangements once I had checked with Toni for dates and times. I insisted that the attendant be a woman to make the girls more comfortable. Take-off was scheduled for 9:00 Saturday morning so Toni and Charlie had their daughters at the Newark Airport General Aviation terminal at 8:20, giving them plenty of time to meet the captain and crew and double-check the arrangements before departure. Two hours later they were safely in Myrtle Beach, riding in Jenny's SUV with Lady seated between them and they were talking nonstop. I grinned toward Jenny, but she was into the conversation as much as the girls.They ran into the house and up the stairs to the bonus room closely followed by Lady. She jumped and capered, playfully nipping at their feet, as they put their clothes into the dresser and closet. I couldn't help but laugh. This was going to be some visit!I grilled hot dogs for lunch and then we took them to Bird Island in the boat. We liked Bird Island for several reasons. First, we could take Lady, even in the summer. She loved the beach and often scampered in the waves with us. Dogs were restricted from the town beach between Memorial Day and Labor Day. Also, Bird Island was on the Little River Inlet so we had a choice of the waves in the ocean or the calm water where we and others parked our boats. Bird Island had ceased to be an actual island decades ago when the narrow inlet between it and Sunset Beach had silted in. Still, it was more than a mile from the nearest road so it was virtually deserted even on the busiest weekend. The only practical way to get here was by boat. We'd brought the Blasi's here on their first visit and they loved it as much as we did.Lady raced back and forth when I pulled her Frisbee from the beach bag. The many holes from her teeth showed clearly how much she enjoyed playing with it. I reminded Andrea and Allison about the heat and Lady's need to rest and drink then sent them off to the ocean side which was completely deserted while Jenny and I set up our umbrella and beach chairs.Jenny was five months into her pregnancy so her baby bump was obvious. She'd bought a new swimsuit, telling me how much she hated seeing women's bare abdomens when obviously pregnant. “Some things should be private, don't you think?”I'd never given the idea much thought, but I could understand her reasoning. Some things should be private.The girls and Lady returned after about a half hour. They hadn't been in the ocean; not yet; because our rule was not to swim unless one of the adults was present. I'd red and heard of many idiotic things done by people at the beach. One of my roommates at Harvard had worked as a lifeguard at a state park near my home. I cringed at the stories he'd told me; how parents endangered their own children through things they'd never consider doing at home.We sat under the umbrella enjoying a Coke from the cooler and some fresh sliced veggies with a cup of ranch dressing. We dug in, eating and laughing until we'd had our fill. We went for a swim, staying fairly close to the shore. There was a lot of boat traffic farther out in the channel, some of it involving fairly big ships, so there was danger in swimming out too far. We all jumped into the water at the same time; all of us, except Lady. Dogs can swim, but they tire quickly. The dog paddle is a very inefficient stroke, using a lot of energy to go nowhere. Jenny had red of several dogs drowning at one of the local beaches. I always forced Lady to “stay” under the umbrella. Yes, dogs can get sunburned, too. We picked up our mess around four for the twenty minute trip home. I had the boat on the hydraulic lift, washing it carefully while Jenny and the girls carried the umbrella, chairs, and beach bag up to the house. I followed a few minutes later, carrying the cooler. We were ready to go out for dinner by 5:15, driving into Calabash for pizza.We were back about ninety minutes later and I fed Lady, noticing how quiet things were in the living room. “Everything okay in here,” I asked.“Jenny, could we ask you something? It's kind of personal.”“Okay, Andrea; go ahead.”“Mom told us that you ran away from home.”“That's right; did she tell you why?” Andrea shook her head “no.” “You're so lucky to have wonderful loving parents. You should thank God for them every day. I had a wonderful father, but he died in an industrial accident when I was ten. My mother remarried almost two years later. She wasn't married even a month when my stepfather; the county sheriff; made his first nighttime trip to my bedroom. I screamed the entire time he raped me, but my mother ignored me. I screamed every time he did it; two to three times a week; for the next five years. I hated that man; I still do. I hated him so much that I ran away when I had the chance. Anything was better than having to lie under his fat sweaty body almost every other day. I knew that I'd have to have sex with some of the men who picked me up, but most of them were nice decent people who just wanted to help me.“I had sex with lots of other men, but I've only made love with Doug. Do you understand the difference?”“I think so,” Allison said. “Dumb animals can have sex, but they don't make love.”“That's true,” Jenny told them. “For me; I would lie down and allow men to use my body, but I was somewhere else. I never had an orgasm and I didn't want one. With Doug I'm always an active participant because I love him. I want it to be good for him just as he wants it to be good for me. Are you guys ready for Monday at the doctor?”“Oh yeah, Jenny; we're looking forward to it,” Andrea replied eagerly. Jenny had realized that she had an appointment for a sonogram scheduled for the week they would visit. She presented three options to Toni: cancel the appointment; take them, but leave them in the waiting room; or take them in to experience the test with us. I wasn't surprised when Charlie and Toni said they'd accept whatever we wanted to do, but thought that seeing a real sonogram would be an excellent and interesting learning experience for their daughters. Jenny and I agreed. Monday would be the day; a big day for all of us.Sunday morning Jenny and I drove them to church and then to brunch at a nice restaurant in Myrtle Beach. We spent the afternoon at Farmstead hitting balls and practicing our putting. Andrea did quite well, especially considering that they didn't have their own clubs and hadn't practiced since their last visit. Allison, however, smoked the ball. “Gee Allison,” her sister commented, “watching you makes me wonder if Daddy is really your father.” Allison howled in laughter then she went to the putting green and smoked everything under eight feet. Jenny and I must have given her a dozen high fives and even more knuckle bumps.Everyone seemed more than a bit nervous at breakfast the following morning. We were in my car before any of us had even spoken. It was Allison who broke the ice. “I bet you're hoping for a boy, Doug.”After laughing, Jenny replied for me. “You'd lose that bet, Allison. Doug wants a girl.”“That's right,” I joined in. “Girls tend to stay close to their families even after getting married although Jenny is an obvious exception. Boys don't generally have much choice because their wives have made it for them, just like almost every other decision.”Jenny laughed and the girls joined her. Then Jenny ended the conversation with, “And don't you forget it!”“Yes, boss!” Jenny giggled then leaned across the console to kiss my cheek. Thirtyminutes later we were in Dr. Cullen's office, sitting nervously until we were called then I thought the nurse would have a cow. I guess she'd never had such a crowd follow her into the exam room.Jenny was handed a gown and pointed toward the restroom. “You've got to be kidding,” she told the nurse. “Why would I want to hide a body like this?” She took off her top and bra and pulled the gown over her arms. I tied a bow behind her neck, but left the other undone as Jenny removed her shorts and lay on the exam table.She was there about fifteen minutes when Dr. Cullen entered with a smile. “I heard this was going to be a theatrical production.” I introduced Andrea and Allison and Dr. Cullen told them where they should stand in order to get the best view. She rubbed some gel on Jenny's abdomen and asked what we were hoping for.“Doug wants a girl,” Allison blurted.“How much do you girls know about sonograms?”“We went online to Google when our mom told us about being here for Jenny's test,” Andrea replied.“Yeah, we must have red six or seven articles about it,” Allison added.“And I bet we looked at four or five videos,” Andrea added. I just laughed; Jenny smiled. We loved their enthusiasm.“Well then, can you tell me what we should look for to determine the sex?”Allison giggled, but Andrea came straight out and answered, “A penis, but sometimes the umbilical cord gets in the way or is confused for a penis.” Dr. Cullen joined Jenny and me in laughing, but did ask if the girls were looking for work. “I'm hiring; I'd bet you know more than most of my staff.”Then Dr. Cullen got down to business. She applied the sensor to Jenny's skin, rubbing it into the gel, and all of us paid the closest attention. We could see the baby's body and head. The umbilical was obvious, but we never did see a penis. “Well, girls, what's the sex?”“It's a girl,” they shouted together.“Another correct diagnosis; are you sure you've never done this before?” We shared a laugh then Dr. Cullen checked Jenny's lungs and heartbeat, reviewed her diet and exercise regimens and told us things couldn't be better. We were out the door five minutes later, laughing and hugging each other before I treated to lunch.We encouraged the girls to call home every day and they did, usually around 5:15 so their dad would be home from work. Every day after they'd spoken Charlie would ask to speak with me and he'd ask how his daughters were behaving. Every day I'd give him the same answer; the way I'd want my daughters to behave. Today's conversation was more elated yelling and screaming than anything else. Andrea began with, ”IT'S A GIRL, MOM! A GIRL!! WE SAW HER INSIDE JENNY. IT WAS INCREDIBLE.” Then Allison added that I had wanted a girl and the yelling started anew.Once they had calmed down Charlie took the phone for his daily question. “Excited,” I replied, “and a bit noisy today, but that's to be expected. It's been an exciting day.” I ended the call and drove everyone down to Myrtle Beach to Captain George's, an excellent seafood buffet where the food was almost as good as in a high end sit-down restaurant.We spent the rest of their visit either at the beach or on the golf course or shopping for baby clothes and accessories. We were actually sorry to see them leave on Sunday; the day before Labor Day. We went shopping in earnest for furniture that week. One of the things we decided was that we wanted to buy a quality set that would last through her entire childhood. We decided on a dresser and crib with a matching twin headboard and desk (can't plan too far ahead if you're a nerd) in a washed blonde maple finish. We'd put the headboard and desk away for now in an air-conditioned storage facility about two miles away until it was needed.The rest of Jenny's pregnancy was uneventful, but she pouted something awful when Dr. Cullen told her to stop penetrative sex in her seventh month. “Don't worry, Jen; I can still take care of you with my mouth and fingers.”My Jenny kissed me then led me to

A temple dedicated to Alexander the Great at the Mesopotamian site of Girsu has us asking questions. Was this the meta-crossover event of the century or just some guys in an office making some plaques for a foreign chump passing through? Our contestants disagree but give a special shoutout to Molly Pitcher, heroine of the New Jersey Turnpike!

Confidence Hack #77: The true stories of those who survived 9/11 due to schedule interruptions. I'm sure we all have, but try to remember a time recently when you got so frustrated over the slightest mishap in your schedule. Let me introduce you to the ‘unknown near-miss experiences.' September 11th, 2001, is a day that will live in infamy in United States history. Everyone who was alive can remember precisely where they were on that day. A woman was late because her alarm clock didn't go off on time.  Another man survived because it was his turn to bring donuts to the office.  Someone else was delayed due to being stuck in a long traffic jam on the New Jersey Turnpike.  One person's car simply wouldn't start.  That morning, a man wore a brand new pair of shoes, got a blister, and had to stop at a pharmacy for a plaster. Those are all true stories of people who unknowingly avoided death. I doubt they look at the minor annoyances of their days the same way most people do. They know they are on borrowed time. And that's the thing: we are all on borrowed time. Today's confidence boost comes from taking a minute to think about the truth—there have been many situations where we could have very easily expired, but we didn't. And that alone can give us a new sense of joy and perspective.  Gain confidence knowing that God is protecting you even from the things you don't know and even when they might seem like burdens at the moment. Burdens can be blessings in disguise. Hey! If you love this show, share it with family and friends! It's the best way to help get this info into the hands of people who want to grow and become the most CONFIDENT LEADERS they can be! And please throw us a 5-star review!

Op zondagavond tien januari 1999, vandaag 25 jaar geleden, zag Amerika voor het eerst een grote man met een dikke sigaar van New York via tolweg The New Jersey Turnpike naar zijn huis in New Jersey rijden. De camera niet op hem gericht, maar op wat hij vanuit zijn raam ziet: van industrie, pakhuizen, verloederde winkels tot de meer groene suburbs en uiteindelijk zijn eigen riante villa. Pas daar ziet de kijker maffiabaas Tony Soprano helemaal in beeld. Zo'n intro, dat op zichzelf al een heel verhaal vertelt, was compleet nieuw in die tijd. En ook op veel andere manieren zou deze serie een revolutie in televisieland betekenen. The Sopranos bestaat een kwarteeuw en in deze podcast vertelt journalist Anke Meijer hoe de schrijvers en acteurs het genre van de tv-serie tot een kunstvorm maakten en hoe ze grote invloed hebben gehad op grote series die daarna kwamen. Anke Meijer schrijft over tv-series en maakt er ook de podcast Skip Intro over, en benadruk ze, intro's skippen doet ze bijna nooit - en zeker niet in het geval van The Sopranos. Reageren?

Raoul Peck became known for his filmmaking and fight for racial justice with the released of his Academy Award-nominated film I Am Not Your Negro which attempts to complete James Baldwin's unfinished book about the assassinations of Malcolm X, Martin Luther King, and Medgar Evers. It was followed by another documentary series, Exterminate All the Brutes. In his latest film, Silver Dollar Road, Peck completes his trilogy about the economic injustice Black people face worldwide.Silver Dollar Road closes the circle with a look at a modern-day family's fight to keep the land they purchased soon after the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation. Notes From America Executive Producer, André Robert Lee sits down with Raoul to discuss how he came across the story in his latest film, and why he feels compelled to make these movies today.  Plus, we hear how Assata Shakur Became one of America's most wanted in 1973 when state troopers on the New Jersey Turnpike pulled over her and two members of the Black Liberation Army. Tragically, guns were fired, people were killed, and in the aftermath, a political standoff between Shakur and state law enforcement began. Tell us what you think.

 Discover why is it better to copy something that's been working rather than being original Learn the advantages of having a swipe file and how can use it to write a star-seller copy Understand why looking for copywriters in-house isn't always the best solution to your bad sales Resources/Links: Want to learn more about how to write copy that drives sales? Click here: bly.com Summary Do you want to learn how to write a copy that actually sells without the stress? Writing copy isn't supposed to be difficult if you have the right people and techniques for the job. An effective copy can be modeled from something that is already working, rather than original. Robert Bly is a freelance copywriter and author of 100 books. Grab a pen and take down notes as Robert talks about what differs from a copy that's just good from one that works and actually sells. He also shares how you can write your own A-level copy that guarantees engagement and sales! Check out these episode highlights: 02:21 - Robert's ideal client: My ideal client is twofold. Number one, I only work with clients that are direct response or direct marketers that could be online. It could be multi-channel. 03:41 - The problem he helps solve: The standard answer would be getting more sales, more clicks, or conversions. But the problem that clients really have is they tell me I can't get a copy anywhere that's right. 04:55 - The symptoms of the problem: The two symptoms. One is the obvious-- bad numbers.

And it's like zero or it's very low! 05:58 - Clients' common mistakes before consulting Robert: Here's what I think a lot of clients quite naturally, and I think it's fine, will inhouse. They have staff or employees who will write their own copy. 07:18 - Robert's Valuable Free Action (VFA): If they want to write better copy and do it themselves, or have someone on their staff do it, that copywriter should keep what we used to call in the good old days, I don't know if you use this today, a "swipe file". 08:58 - Robert's Valuable Free Resource (VFR): Want to learn more on how to write a copy that drives sales?

I'm Tom Poland beaming out to you from the Sunshine Coast in Australia. I'm joined today by Robert Bly, a.k.a. Bob. Welcome, sir! A good day from Down Under. Where are you hanging out? Robert Bly 00:22 I am hanging out, as I always do, in New Jersey, on the east coast of the USA. Tom Poland 00:27 New Jersey Turnpike, they've been John Malkovich. Right? Robert Bly 00:30 That is one of our major roads. The Turnpike, and the parkway, Tom Poland 00:35 Not a fun place to get dropped out onto the sidewalk, probably, but anywho! So how do you- I mean, in New Jersey, you're really close to New York, right? Robert Bly 00:42 Very close to New York. And if there was no traffic, it could literally be a 15-minute drive. But, these days, there's always traffic. Tom Poland 00:51 So is New York like a big brother to New Jersey? Is that sort of chip-on-the-shoulder thing between the two that sometimes there's a sibling rivalry? Robert Bly 00:59 Yeah,

Introducing the Band:Your hosts Scot Bertram (@ScotBertram) and Jeff Blehar (@EsotericCD) are joined by guest Rory Cooper. He's a partner at Purple Strategies, a corporate reputation and advocacy agency in Alexandria, Va., a former George W. Bush and Eric Cantor aide, and a longtime Republican strategist. He's on Twitter at @rorycooper.Rory's Music Pick: Simon & GarfunkelIf you enjoyed Political Beats' episode on the solo career of Paul Simon with Rory Cooper from a year and half ago, then kick right back after the Labor Day weekend and start feelin' groovy while listening the epic George Lucas/Peter Jackson prequel extravaganza that is our discussion of Simon & Garfunkel! Yes, Rory has returned to discuss a pop duo formerly known as “Tom & Jerry,” whose music dominated both American and U.K. airwaves in the late Sixties. With three #1 hits, nine more top 20 singles, two #1 albums, and their names attached to one of the decade's most beloved films, we think it likely that you're already somewhat familiar with Simon & Garfunkel. But this, like our Paul Simon episode, is the rare episode in which neither of your two esteemed hosts were actually deeply familiar with the albums (as opposed to the radio hits). How could this have happened? All is explained while we are rejoined by Rory Cooper, a guy who knows all the stories and loves Paul Simon's music so much he named his kid after one of these songs. In this episode, we explore the origins of Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel as schooldays choirboy friends in Queens, their brief “teen idol” phase as Tom & Jerry, and their -- rather awkward -- rebirth in the early Sixties as folkies on a Greenwich Village scene that resolutely disdained them for purported inauthenticity. Simon & Garfunkel's 1964 debut album flopped so badly that Simon went to England and Garfunkel simply went back to school, until a Columbia producer desperate for a hit overdubbed electric backing onto a forgotten song from that debut called “The Sound of Silence.”And the rest is history. Simon & Garfunkel's career resumed in a haste as “Sound of Silence” hit the top of the charts in January 1966, and what followed was a series of increasingly assured acoustic folk/pop/rock hits that culminated by the late Sixties in immortal and gnomic songs like “Mrs. Robinson,” “America,” and “The Boxer.” From being a pale imitator of Bob Dylan's “intelligent folk” music, Simon & Garfunkel had evolved into a different, singular sound, anchored around Garfunkel's peerlessly pitch-perfect high tenor voice and Simon's insistently rhythmic sense of guitar-work and arrangement.Although the pairing did not -- and could not, for many reasons -- last long, it ended in a supreme achievement: Bridge Over Troubled Water (1970), a record whose commercial dominance and omnipresence in its day has been exceeded only by its subsequent critical reputation. And that was it; Garfunkel left for an acting career, and Simon for a solo one. (A brief reunion in the early Eighties went nowhere.) And that was for the best: They will forever be remembered for going out on the highest possible note. What happened next has already been discussed, but for now, enjoy the groovy Sixties and Paul Simon's orthogonal, acutely self-conscious place within them as we count the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike, all gone to look for America. 

In this Boles.tv live stream highlight, David Boles shares the details of a road scam that some families are running to get free gas and a "donation" from you to ensure their better life on a distant road. Here's how to identify the scam, and then avoid the scam!

There are markers along the road in every harpist's development, signposts that indicate you're making progress. These are like those highway signs that tell you how many miles you are from the next town or city, like “New York City - 90 miles.” No matter how long it's taken you to get to that point and regardless of the traffic jam ahead of you on the New Jersey Turnpike, New York City is now only 90 miles away.  Graduating from three-note chords to four-note chords is one of those markers I talk about often. Another one is fluent hands together playing. Fluent may not be the best word to describe my meaning. It's more a comfort level, the point at which hands together playing is not any more difficult for you than playing hands separately. Many harpists develop fluency playing hands separately and then are frustrated when that fluency doesn't translate to their hands together playing. What they don't realize is that the processing of information that is required for hands separately playing is very different from what is required for hands together playing. It's a harp version of the saying “What got you here won't get you there.” My students have all heard me talk about this before - and often. It's painful to me to see harpists struggle with music learning and slow progress simply because they never were shown a better way. In this episode I will detail how to put hands together in a way which is faster, easier and will yield massive results, not just in the long-term but almost immediately. And while there are a lot of angles we could touch on today, I want to focus on three things you could do today to improve - or develop, if you feel like you're starting from scratch - your hands together skills. I also will tell you about two things you are likely doing now which you must stop immediately, today. So get out your notebook or your practice journal and your favorite pen and be ready to take notes. Or just listen now and come back to this episode later to be sure you capture all the info you need. You're going to want it all, trust me.

A deadly encounter fifty years ago between the New Jersey State Police and a group of Black activists turned Assata Shakur into a cultural icon – and an enduring political villain.  In May 1973, activist Assata Shakur and two members of the Black Liberation Army were pulled over by state troopers on the New Jersey Turnpike. Tragically, guns were fired, people were killed, and in the aftermath, a political standoff between Shakur and state law enforcement began.  On the fiftieth anniversary marking the incident, WNYC reporters Nancy Solomon and Tracie Hunte share their reporting with host Kai Wright. They explore the many unanswered questions it raises and what this moment means in the history of Black self-defense movements. Companion listening for this episode:  The Week That Changed America's Cities (4/13/2023) On the 55th anniversary of Martin Luther King Jr.'s assassination, one journalist examines the 1968 Holy Week which he calls one of the most consequential weeks in U.S. history. “Notes from America” airs live on Sunday evenings at 6pm ET.

The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe the famous 2001 potentially UFO lights in the sky above New Jersey in the USA. Or were they birds with flashlights? Mr Moonwalker may be one of only two people in the world wise enough to come up with that theory. This, or these, things in the sky, have a lot to answer for because their fifteen minutes of fame may have interrupted other planned events… Federal Aviation Administration data may held to help some light on this one. Whilst probing these most unusual lights with similarities to the Phoenix Lights, we also ponder… Was the sighting of this event inspiration for a certain Mario Kart 64 course? Is getting pooped on by a bird really lucky? Really? Is it really?

The Freelancer is back and has a list of mass casualty events on his docket but not to assassinate someone as his typical MO.  Why is he on the rampage and how does it tie into Wujing.  Plus if you are in New Jersey, say hi to Red on the turnkpike?!?! Support the Show! Be sure to #FillTheFedora on Patreon. Case Profile for The Freelancer Part 2 Three weeks ago men from Wu-Wu's (yes that is what we are calling him forever now in honor of the late Robert Vesco) from Wujing's team met with a team of Mercs that helped out Marvin last season in his war with Red.  They won't join forces with Wu-Wu unless they have proof that Reddington has betrayed them and is working for the FBI.  So Wu-Wu calls upon The Freelancer to stage some high profile catastrophes in order to draw out Red and the Taskforce. A photographer that snapped a photo 6 years ago of Red, Dembe, and Rojellio is back and taking pictures of the task force arriving on the scene of Freelancer's handiwork, in order to get the proof Wu-Wu needs.    Meanwhile Ressler is one year sober and about to become a sponsor for a fellow in the same line of work he is. Red is traveling the New Jersey Turnpike picking up snacks for Agnes who apparently likes a boy at school.  Cooper never saw himself as a family man but is really becoming attached to Agnes, and Herbie pays a visit to the Post Office.   Be sure to answer our profiling question of the week: Is the guy Ressler is helping a plant? Visit our feedback page to leave a response or call +1 (304) 837-2278.  Music For The Freelancer Part 2 During the cold open this week as The Freelancer goes to work on the engine room of the ferry we hear “Time is Off” a collaboration by Flash Sendeic and Neoni. While the ladies are tending to the Egyptian cotton sheets as Red arrives at Rojellios place we hear “Rondo Alla Three” by David Stienberg. Finally as Ressler and Dembe question the 9th floor after the building fire we hear “Smile With Your Teeth” by the New Mystics.  You can hear these songs via the official Blacklist playlist on Spotify or the same playlist recreated by us on Apple Music.  The Freelancer Part 2 in Pictures Here are a just a few of our favorite scenes from this week.
