Baptism is such a beautiful visual of the Resurrection. It reminds us that we can bury our past, bury our failures, and bury our shame. Just as Christ rose to a New Life, so can we! We not only come up out of the water with clean bodies, we come up with a clean slate upon which we can write a New Story. The Resurrection means that no matter how “dead” we may have been, we can live New Lives!
Devoncast's search for the most interesting stories around the county takes it to Exeter, Plymouth, Torbay and Totnes among other places this week, as well as taking a dive into the uncharted waters of artificial intelligence. The team steps into the fire-ravaged ruins of Exeter's Royal Clarence Hotel to hear how a huge redevelopment scheme has started this week, and hears how Plymouth's landmark Civic Centre could be in line for an uplift. A veteran politician discusses how the new shape of Devon could be hammered out in the coming months, and a baton relay with a life-saving message is heading to the county later this year. There's an expert view on artificial intelligence, and a tempting cheese course to complete the feast. It's all in the latest edition of Devoncast, from Radio Exe and the Local Democracy Reporting Service.
Each year, Utah welcomes new refugees escaping violence, danger, and hardships in countries around the world. But starting new lives in new communities has its own unique challenges for families. That's why local volunteers with the nonprofit WARD foundation are working to provide them necessities like food, diapers, bikes, household goods, clothing, and commuity support. In this week's edition of Utah Weekly Forum, FM100.3 Host Rebecca Cressman is joined by Jessica White and Marty Bodell, board members of the WARD Foundation, who explain their mission and how others can get involved.

Episode 159 - Navigating Fatherhood, Supporting Your Adult Children in Their New LivesAs fathers of adult children who have moved out and started their own families, it's important to understand how to navigate this new phase of parenting. Here's a summary of key points for dads:Respect Boundaries and IndependenceRecognize that your adult children are starting their own family unit with their own decisions and traditions.Avoid showing up uninvited or expecting to have the same level of involvement as before.Allow them to make their own choices about where to live, work, and how to celebrate holidays.Offer Support Without OversteppingMake yourself available for advice and support, but only when invited.Respect their parenting choices and household rules, even if they differ from yours.Be open to learning about their new family dynamics and priorities.Maintain CommunicationKeep in touch regularly, but don't expect daily updates.Show interest in their lives without being intrusive.Use active listening skills and open-ended questions to foster meaningful conversations.Adapt Your RoleTransition from an authority figure to more of a mentor or friend.Focus on building an adult-to-adult relationship with your children.Be prepared to step back and let them handle their own challenges.Self-Care and Personal GrowthDevelop your own interests and relationships outside of your role as a parent.Seek support from other fathers going through similar transitions.Consider joining support groups or counseling if you're struggling with the change.Grandparenting (if applicable)Respect the parenting decisions of your adult children regarding their own kids.Offer to help with grandchildren, but always within the boundaries set by their parents.Focus on building positive relationships with grandchildren without undermining their parents' authority.Remember, this transition can be challenging for fathers, who may feel a loss of purpose or struggle with their changing role. It's normal to experience a range of emotions during this time. The key is to maintain a loving, supportive presence in your adult children's lives while respecting their independence and new family dynamics.___https://dadspace.camusic provided by Blue Dot SessionsSong: The Big Ten https://app.sessions.blue/browse/track/258270
In 2014, Pastor Nannie Jefferies saw a need in Spartanburg that no other organization was filling. After visiting with and ministering to incarcerated relatives of her parishioners, Pastor Jefferies was struck by the lack of assistance and hope those women had once they were released. Many of the women were often left with no alternative but to return to the same environments that had led them down the path to incarceration in the first place, putting them at much higher risk of recidivism. Recognizing the need to offer a better solution, Pastor Jefferies founded , which has been working to provide that solution for recently incarcerated women in Spartanburg ever since. Today on the podcast, we're talking with Pastor Jefferies about the work Angels Charge does and the impact that work has on the women served and the larger community they call home.

On a recent afternoon, a group of mechanics gathered at a lowrider show. This isn't Los Angeles – a city where lowrider culture has deep roots – it's more than a 1,000 miles away in Mexico City. For decades, Mexican immigrants have headed north and shaped the culture of California's cities. But now, a growing number of their children and grandchildren are leaving California and moving to Mexico. Reporter Levi Bridges met up with some of them in Mexico City to learn why they made the move. Plus, in the Central Valley, you often see signs from the California Farm Water Coalition that say “Food grows where water flows." The system of canals and reservoirs that feeds farmland there is one of the biggest in the world. But irrigation canals are also places where people dump unwanted objects, like toilets, furniture or shopping carts. It's Big Valley Divers job to clean and maintain the canals and the dams that feeds farmland, For her series California Foodways, Lisa Morehouse spent a day in Colusa County with Big Valley Divers to learn all about the unusual job that keeps the water flowing.

Today on Scope Conditions: college dorms shed light on where group culture comes from and how it molds us.At Harry Potter's alma mater, each new student is assigned to a House that aligns with their true character. The mystical Sorting Hat takes the courageous ones and sorts them into House Gryffindor, while the studious know-it-alls go to Ravenclaw. The Sorting Hat may be fiction, but it's actually a lot like life. Much of the social world works this way: whether by assignment or by self-selection, people often end up in social environments that already fit with their pre-existing beliefs and traits.For social scientists, what's often called homophily – this tendency for like to attract like – can make it difficult to study the impact of social context itself. Do people tend to believe and act like those around them because they're influenced by their surroundings, or because they're drawn to places that already fit their pre-existing characteristics?Our guest today, Dr. Joan Ricart-Huguet, found a real-world social setting that helps him untangle these possibilities. At East Africa's oldest institution of higher education, Makerere University in Uganda, incoming students have for decades been allocated to their residence halls by lottery, rather than by personality type. For Joan, Makerere's randomly assigned dorms have been the perfect laboratory for studying how the cultural characteristics of a social organization arise, endure, and shape people's beliefs and habits over time. Joan is an assistant professor of political science at Loyola University Maryland, and we talk with him about a pair of recent articles he wrote on cultural emergence, persistence, and transmission. Joan tells us about the months of in-depth interviews and immersive fieldwork he conducted on the Makerere campus as well as the natural experiment afforded by random residential assignment that allowed him to test alternative theories of cultural differentiation, reproduction, and impact.For example, Joan tells us the stories of how distinct hall cultures emerged historically at Makerere – how Livingston Hall came to be known as the residence of respectful gentlemen while Lumumba Hall earned a reputation for rowdy activism. And we learn about the short- and long-term causal effects of these distinct hall cultures on the young adults assigned by chance to live within them.Works cited in this episode:Geertz, C. 1973.

What's being done to save the state's industrial history? In today's episode, Producer Mary Donohue talks to Renee Tribert, Preservation Services Coordinator for adaptive reuse and redevelopment for industrial buildings at Preservation Connecticut. Podcast audio engineer Patrick O'Sullivan and Donohue share some of their favorite places to go around the state where you can see old mills and factories that are being used for fun new uses and we hear from Ilona Somogyi, co-founder of Ball & Socket Arts in Cheshire, Connecticut about an old mill with a Cinderella story that will open this summer. Connecticut was at the forefront of the Industrial Revolution in the United States. Small brooks and rivers were dammed to create waterpower that turned machinery and the state's textile, precision manufacturing and metal casting industries were born. Thousands of products were produced and the state attracted investors, inventors and immigrants to work in the factories. But as industry moved out in the last half of the 20th century, these cathedrals of industry become vacant and abandoned across the state.

Today we're uncovering another favourite episode from The Travel Diaries archive, now that we have over 100 episodes to pick from, as we build up to our big season finale with Joanna Lumley next week. It was so hard to choose, but when I reflected on the episodes that sparked the most wanderlust in me, from the most seasoned travellers, I thought it had to be Ben Fogle. Ben's episode was recorded back in the Covid days, during season three, when no one really knew what was going on with the future of travel, and his tales of epic physical feats, wilderness living , going to the most remote parts of the planet, really inspired me at the time.Ben is an award-winning broadcaster and one of the UK's most prolific adventurers. He has rowed across the Atlantic Ocean, swam from Alcatraz to San Francisco, run the Marathon Des Sables (a 6 day ultra marathon across the Sahara Desert), raced across the Antarctica to the South Pole and most recently climbed Mount Everest. He's written nine best-selling books - many about travel - and has the enviable title of the United Nations Patron of the Wilderness. And speaking of the Wilderness, he has travelled to every corner of the globe while filming his long-running hit TV series, New Lives in the Wild, a notion that feels particularly relevant right now during lockdown. Get ready to be transported to Guatemala, the top of Mt Everest, Ethiopia, the Canadian Wilderness and…Ayia Napa.Destination Recap:Taransay, Outer Hebrides, ScotlandLake Chemong, Ontario, CanadaBritish Columbia, CanadaAlgonquin Park, Ontario, CanadaLatin America Quito, EcuadorAntigua, GuatemalaBolivia Pitcairn Island, South PacificPleistocene Park, SiberiaThe Atlantic OceanMt Everest, Nepal Cornwall, EnglandEthiopiaLalibela, EthiopiaAyia Napa, Mallorca, SpainHaitiThe Great Wall of China, ChinaThe North PoleThe South PoleThank you so much for listening today.

Ukrainians say they're escaping to New Zealand on a special humanitarian visa, only to find themselves locked out of jobs and housing, and turned away from MSD offices. Last week a Ukrainian support group pleaded with the Immigration Minister to expand the financial, language and health support for arrivals, claiming the lack of support had driven some of them back to their war-torn homeland. Katie Todd has the story.
Since Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February, millions have fled the war-torn country. Many now call neighboring countries their home; still others crossed the Atlantic to the US. And about 125 sought safe haven in Hawaii, building a new life in paradise as they wait to return home.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

After a childhood and youth spent rigorously training for professional careers in ballet, Roland Spier and Jaya Puglise each suffered career-ending injuries. With their hopes for careers in dance at an end, both were faced with finding new purpose and identities. They each attended Columbia University in New York. Both in their 20's, Roland and Jaya work as management consultants now but are giving back to dance and dancers through Second Act, which Jaya describes as ”a network to connect current and former dancers of all backgrounds to streamline the difficult transition and creates a support system for personal and professional growth.” Says Roland, “Second Act was born from my experience struggling to find a path after hanging up my dance shoes due to injury. I want to create a resource for dancers experiencing a similar transition to find support, both personal and professional. I am passionate about this opportunity to bring dancers together, while giving back to the arts.”Topics Include:The close identity young dancers develop to the profession, because they start so young, often at threeor four, and then spend time at the dance studio rather than in after school activities.The strong bonds young dancers form with their classmates as they work towards performances andreaching milestones in the craft, which are hard to reproduce outside of the dance world.Feeling gratitude for the skills gained through the years of study and practice, but sadness too for thedance career that didn't happen.Empathizing with young Olympic athletes and the pressure they feel to perform and what happenswhen they can't “deliver".The difficult transition out of the dance world to finding new interests and pursuits.Founding the nonprofit mentoring group Second Act, bring together mentors with younger dancerstransitioning to other careers.Adjusting to enjoying ballet as audience members.Their advice to others: Don't box yourself in, there is a lot that's open to you.Resources:Instagram: @secondactnycRoland Spier is originally from Washington D.C and trained at the Washington School of Ballet, dancing alongside the company in many of their productions.

I had a super fun 20 minute conversation with Cassie Lee and Jessica McKay, The IINSPIRATION, the current IMPACT Wrestling Knockouts Tag Team Champions. We touched on several topics, including their new lives post WWE (fka Billie Kay & Peyton Royce) , transition into IMPACT Wrestling, winning Knockouts Tag Team Titles at Bound For Glory, the way they brand themselves, career goals and then towards the end we play a fun game of HOW WELL DO THEY REALLY KNOW EACH OTHER?
