When George Jones talks about his mission to make Washington, DC an anti-racist city he is sometimes met with discomfort and even denial. But when he talks about the tremendous disparities in wealth and income that separate white communities in the NW portion of the city from Black families in the SE the very same business, academic and foundation leaders agree that the data is unimpeachable and the systems that perpetuate it must be upended. As CEO of Bread for the City, the highly impactful nonprofit he leads, he manages the complex organizational infrastructure needed to provide for a continuum of human needs, from food and clothing to medical attention and legal support. Bread for the City also builds community power, positioning those with lived experience in advocating for policy solutions before the City Council and Mayor. George points out how a pervasively negative narrative about Black youth in poor DC neighborhoods strips us of empathy and disconnects us from the facts. While crime is real, the perpetrators are in fact a small and known cohort. Joining this anti-racism journey is an opportunity we cannot afford to lose.

Kim Peri is a Golden Retriever lover with a passion for philanthropy and paying it forward. Dr. Mike Lappin is a veterinarian with Goldens and determination to better the health of his breed. How did they meet? Because of Indy the Golden, and an Eagles concert. Listen in to hear what it is like to be involved in the Golden Retriever Lifetime Study as a dog lover and as a veterinarian, as well as some of the things that we have learned so far. The study is ongoing – originally it was going to end when 500 of the enrolled Goldens had been diagnosed with cancer, but it has now been extended to follow all of the enrolled Goldens for their entire lives. Unfortunately, Indy is one of the Golden Heroes who died of cancer. But the blood work and surveys that he and the other Goldens have contributed are giving researchers lots of information to identify environmental and genetic risk factors for cancer.

Sean L. Dipple South Carolina, USA I was born in 1971 in Columbus Ohio and lived in Central Ohio until I was 12 years old. My father worked in the office equipment industry and quickly worked up through the ranks. When I was halfway thru middle school he was promoted and moved the family to the Chicago area and we lived in the NW part of Chicago until I was 18. I was always a slender child and was never overweight. I didn't play organized sports but was very active with snow skiing, water skiing and neighborhood sports like football and Ice Hockey on neighborhood ponds in the winter. Eating was never a priority for me and I remember my mom was always forcing me to come in for each meal. I graduated High School in 1989 and weighed 170 lbs. (I am 5'11”). Food and eating out became a priority only when I got married and my focus and priorities changed. I got married when I was 18 to a girl, I met in High School who thought she couldn't have children. A month after we got married, she got pregnant (yes, the math works out) and my whole life changed. I worked any job I could to provide for her and my child. Food and alcohol quickly became the only thing that relaxed and soothed the stresses that you can imaging were very quickly a daily part of my life. Even though I was consuming a lot of food and sometimes alcohol I only gained 10 or 15 lbs. because I was a commercial electrician and worked very physically hard. I also made $9.00 an hour so going out to eat or eating a lot just wasn't an option. We really struggled financially. It wasn't until 1994 that I got a job in outside sales that I really started to gain weight. The physical labor was no longer a part of my daily life and most of my time was driving in the car sitting on my butt. Fast and cheap food was the daily menu. I quickly got over 200 lbs. and haven't been under that weight since I was 25 years old. Currently I am 51. Since then, I have been in sales management which still involves a lot of sitting. My weight has fluctuated from 272 down to 245. I once got down to 207 but I always seem to self-sabotage myself and return to that self-soothing food, alcohol and the dreaded sugar! I had a very dysfunctional childhood with a father that was very verbally abusive as well as sometimes physically. Once during my childhood my father was overweight and got into running and taking care of himself. He lost a lot of weight and became very arrogant and condescending of anyone that was overweight. I think this is why once I start losing weight that I quickly do whatever I can to gain it all back. Diets and exercise are always a short-term fix to a long-term problem. IF has started to change all of that and I have been able to lose close to 20 lbs. since Jan of last year. Inconsistency is what has prevented me from taking this journey to the next level and that's why I reached out. I am ready to see this thru from a diet to a full-time lifestyle and tackle the demons that sabotage my progress. I am hopeful that “The Fasting Highway” family can benefit from my story as I am sure it is more common than we realize. The Fasting Highway news.

This is Stephen Schmidt from the Gazette digital news desk and I'm here with your update for Friday, January 6.We'll get a bit of a break from snow on Friday. According to the National Weather Service there will be a high near 31 degrees in the Cedar Rapids area with partly sunny skies. On Friday night it will be partly cloudy, with a low of around 18 degrees.The weather should be similar for the next few days, with the temperature rising again.Owners of a Marengo workshop that exploded last month, injuring half its workforce and leaving an environmental mess, now may face thousands of dollars in fines on top of cleanup costs.The Iowa Department of Natural Resources referred C6-Zero to the Attorney General's Office for legal action this week after the company said it could not meet deadlines for cleaning up the site.The DNR ordered C6-Zero to complete an environmental site assessment plan by Dec. 31, but that date passed without a filing. EcoSource, LLC, a Des Moines-area environmental consulting firm, submitted a plan on C6-Zero's behalf Jan. 3, DNR Spokeswoman Tammie Krausman said.The Gazette asked the DNR for a copy of the plan, but the agency did not immediately respond.The DNR has the authority to pursue administrative penalties of up to $10,000, but the Attorney General can seek higher penalties. Iowa law allows for fines of $5,000 a day for water quality violations, $5,000 a day for solid waste violations and $10,000 a day for air quality violations.Human remains that were found in the Cedar River last week have been identified as Erik Spaw, a Cedar Rapids employee who went missing last summer, according to a news release from the Cedar Rapids Police Department.Spaw, 54, was reported missing on May 7. He'd been working the night before at the Northwest Water Treatment Plant at 7807 Ellis Rd. NW, and was reported missing by his co-workers, who noticed he never returned to the J Avenue Water Treatment Plant, where his personal car was parked.Spaw's city-owned pickup truck was found submerged in the Cedar River just upriver from the Edgewood Road bridge with no one inside. His mother, Karen Spaw, told The Gazette at the time that he had diabetes and he'd been having trouble regulating his insulin intake, so she believed he may have passed out from low-blood sugar and driven into the river.Cedar Rapids search crews spent several days on the river looking for Spaw, and periodically returned throughout the summer to continue searching.Residents in the Solon Community School District have indicated strong support for a $

This week we will be talking about the early actions that occurred along the Matinikau river. Now, as opposed to the land battles we have discussed before, Tenaru and Edson's Ridge which each only happened one time, the Matinikau actions occurred several times from September through November 1942. Today, we will be focusing on the September and October actions. Following the battle at Edson's Ridge, what remained of the Japanese force under General Kawaguchi, pulled back through the jungle and attempted to regroup, as well as refit, on the western side of the Matinikau river. Marine general Archer Vandegrift was aware that the Japanese had done this very thing and planned to eliminate whatever was left of the force that had slammed against the ridge on two consecutive nights in September. Vandegrift was determined to mop up what was left of the Japanese so as to deny them the opportunity to consolidate their forces and resume their offensive. Vandegrift chose his freshest troops for this action, the recently arrived 1st Battalion of the 7th Marines under a Lieutenant Colonel whose name was and still is synonymous with the Corps. Lewis B Chesty Puller. Talking Points: The 7th Marines Arrive:On September 18, the Marines on Guadalcanal finally received some much needed reinforcements, to the tune of 4157 men of the 7th Marine RegimentFresh from garrison duty in Samoa, these Marines were both fresh and eager to go.Their arrival allowed Vandegrift to finally establish a full defensive perimeter around the Lunga Point areaLearning from the lessons earlier in the campaign, the 7th Marines were disgorged on the beach early in the morning, and by 1800 that same day the cargo ships, now properly loaded, spit out a further 137 trucks4323 barrels of fuel60% of the tentage and equipment needed by the 7thThe remainder would be unloaded in short order Lewis B “Chesty” Puller 44 years old at this timeJoined the Marines in 1918By 42 he had served 24 years in the CorpsA veteran of Haiti, Nicaragua, better known as the banana wars, Puller had loads of combat experience before he ever got to the CanalDescribed as the prototypical Marine officer, Puller had a chin like “bulldozer blade”, a barrel chest and seemingly always had a pipe stuck in his teeth. Highly decorated for service in Haiti and Nicaragua and grounded in the fundamentals of infantry combat and what it took to both be an infantryman, and how to survive as an infantryman, his men absolutely adored him. Mission:Puller was to advance astride Mount Austen, cross the river and examine the area between Mount Austen and KokumbonaClearly just an exploratory mission 900 men under Puller moved out on September 23On the afternoon of the next day, the lead elements of Puller's force ran into a Japanese bivouac area on the NW slope of Mount AustenIn the ensuing fight, the Marines drove the Japanese off just before dark, but took significant casualties7 KIA 25 WIA The next day 2/5 was sent to reinforce Puller and allow his wounded to be brought to the rear At the same time, the Japanese had established a defensive area around the position known as “One Log Bridge” along the riverThe Japanese 12th Company, at the bridge, and Puller's units hit each repeatedly with neither side gaining, or losing, any ground Because of the defense at one log bridge, Puller continued downstream, headed towards the mouth of the river and attempted a crossing.He was met with fierce Japanese defensive fire and mortars that handily checked the Marine advance and forced them to hold on the friendly side of the river Vandegrift sent the 1st Raiders to join Puller and at this point, Edson took commandEdson and Puller devised a plan to have C Company of Puller's Battalion move up the east side of the river, cross one log bridge and attack Matinikau village from the south2/5 would hold the line near the mouth of the river to deny any attempt by the Japanese to flank Puller's group Attack:At first light on the 27th, the Raiders moved up to cross the one log bridgeAs they did so, they came under intense fire from well entrenched Japanese on the east bank of the riverThis was completely unexpected as far as the Marines were concernedWell placed Japanese mortar fire began to take effect on the RaidersKenneth Bailey, leading the attack is killed here After Bailey is killed, LCOL Griffith, who had been wounded in the fight, tried to slip 2 companies around the entrenched Japanese in order to flank them, but they too were pinned down by heavy Japanese fire Back at the mouth of the river, the Japanese 9th Company continuously hurled back 2/5's attacks across the river Pt Cruz: In an attempt to cut the Japanese off, Companies A, B and D of 1/7 landed near Point Cruz and began to push inland.It must be noted that the this action would not have occurred had it been known by Vandegrift that Puller's and the Raider's attack had not succeeded as yet.Garbled radio transmissions from Griffith did not make it clear that the action was successful Almost immediately, the Marines came under heavy fire as COL Oka deployed several units to attack the recently landed MarinesMortar rounds killed Major Rogers, and wounded another Company commander, leaving Captain Charles Kelly to assume command of the operationWithin a short amount of time, the Japanese had moved behind the marines (coast side) and cut them off from any route of escapeRealizing their predicament, Kelly ordered to radio for help…but no radios had been brought to the area by the Marines.Using t-shirts, the Marines spelled out HELP on the ground, a signal that was seen by an SBD pilot from VMSB231 named Dale Leslie.Leslie relayed the Marines' desperate message which was picked up by PullerMeanwhile, Edson's attack was still underway when he too received the message of distress from Kelly.Edson halted his attack despite Puller's heated argument that halting the attack would allow the Japanese to send more men to attack and eventually annihilate Kelly. Fearing for his men, Puller hauled ass back to Kukum where he boarded the destroyer USS Monssen Gathering landing craft, Puller, Monssen, and a flock of 10 landing craft headed towards Point Cruz in the area the Marines had initially landedOnce arriving, the landing craft were greeted by furious fire from the Japanese who had by this time, pushed the Marines back, cut them off and were preparing to mount an assault to destroy themPuller was able to establish comms with Kelly ashore by use of semaphore and directed him to make his way to the coast NOWAs the Marines attempted to fight their way out, the destroyer Monssen provided direct artillery support with every available weapon aboard ship for 30 minutes and helped blast a path for the withdrawing MarinesBy 1630, those who could, had made it to the beach as the landing craft were heading to rescue themRealizing the Marines were trying to escape, the Japanese poured fire into them and tried to reestablish the encirclement Douglas MunroMunro ordered his Higgins landing craft towards the shore as he and the other boats in his formation came under intense fire.Manning a Lewis machine gun, Munro returned fire at the Japanese and ordered for his boat to move closer to the beach so as to shield the Marines that were attempting to embark on the other landing craft.As his boat moved into position, Munro noticed a grounded landing craft, again moving his boat to shield the Marines attempting to free the craft, Munro purposely exposed himself and his boat to withering enemy fire. Holding station for several minutes, Munro poured fire back at the Japanese and eventually directed his boat to withdraw after the previously grounded landing craft had been freed and loaded with Marines. As Munro's craft withdrew he was struck by a Japanese bullet at the base of his skull.Rushing back to Lunga point, his best friend Raymond Evans cradled Munro in his arms. Munro regained consciousness, looked at Evans and asked, “Did they get off?” Evans replied in the affirmative, and Munro died.Munro was the first, and so far, the only Coast Guardsman to receive the MOHThe ill-fated Marine action resulted in 70 KIA and a further 100 WIA October 6-9 actionsOn October 3 LTGEN Maruyama was landed along with fresh troops. His mission was to set up artillery positions on the opposite side of the Matinkiau with which to shell Marine positions in preparation for the late October offensive that was on the horizonOver the next few days, the Japanese proceeded to do just that as well as set up further defensive postions along the banks of the river. Vandegrift, again aware that the Japanese were preparing positions as well as preparing for an offensive Daily Marine patrols ran into Japanese and confirmed both the arrival of fresh troops and the preparations for offensive As a result of this knowledge, Vandegrift once again planned an offensive against the Matinikau positions to eliminate the threat before it came to himHis plan was to strike and seize the area near Kokumbona to deny Japanese access to the trails that lead to the upper portion of the Lunga area.The 5th Marines, minus 1/5 would advance along the coast and force a crossing of the river.The Whaling Group, as well as the 7th Marines, would cross the river further south at one log bridge.Once across the Whaling Group and the 7th would attack down the ridges and hopefully trap a large number of Japanese in the process. The fighting:October 7 the attack kicked off, with 3/5 reaching the river and running into fierce resistance3/5 used 75mm artillery pieces mounted in half-tracks to pour direct fire into the Japanese positions. Slowly, the Japanese gave ground.By nightfall, the Marines held the mouth of the river and the Whaling Group and the 7th had crossed the river easily at one log bridge The following afternoon, H Company 5th Marines under Captain Rigaud mistakenly entered a valley between two Japanese units The enemy holding the high ground poured fire into H Company. Marines started to panic, and began to run. Rigaud stood up in the middle of the fight, challenged his men, shamed them, cajoled them and made them retake their positions and eventually withdrew in order.Fighting died down on the 7th and the assault waited until the following day to complete the encirclementOn the 8th, Vandegrift received intel that the Japanese were preparing an all out offensive to recapture the island. As a result, he cancelled the operation for the next day and ordered his units to return to the American perimeter to prepare a defense following this day's actions. The Whaling Group and 2/7 reached the beach as Puller's group topped a ridgeline to find an entire Japanese battalion in the ravine below him.Puller called in artillery and mortars and watched as the artillery did its work, calling them machines for extermination.The Japanese tried to escape by climbing up the ravine side and were taken under direct machine gun and rifle fire from Puller's men.Only after Puller's men had expended all of their mortar ammunition did he order cease fire, moving out to rejoin Whaling and Hanneken ahead of him.This concluded the second battle around the Matinikau which resulted in:65 KIA and 125 WIAThe Japanese lost around 700 men in the three day engagement Effects on the campaign:Because of the loss of the Matinikau, the Japanese were forced to eventually march their men through the jungle (again) before the major assault around Henderson Field in late October . This march, like Kawaguchi's the month before, exhausted the attackers to the point where their efficiency in the attack that came was severely diminished.

For additional notes and resources check out Douglas' website.IntroductionThere are oracles against nations in most of the prophetic books of the Bible.In 1:3 to 2:5 there are 7 doom oracles.Yahweh is lord over the gentile nations, so why should we think Israel will be judged less strictly?The seven oracles of doomDamascus (1:3-5) is the chief city of Syria (Aram)It may be the world's oldest continuously inhabited city.Gilead, east of the Jordan and bordering Syria, included Reuben, Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh.“I destroyed 592 towns of the 16 districts of the country of Damascus, rendering them like hills over which the flood had passed.” – Tiglath-Pileser III, AnnalsSyria will go into exile (the divine punishment of last resort against the covenant people in the law of Moses)Gaza (1:6-8), one of the 5 cities of Philistia (Gath is often omitted in oracles against the Philistines).Exodus 21:16 forbids kidnapping, and by implication the slave trade.Hear the slavery podcast for more discussion.Again, there will be no escape for the nation that has defied the righteous standards of Yahweh.Tyre (1:9-10)100 miles NW of Jerusalem, modern LebanonAgain, condemnation of the slave tradeEdom (1:11-12)Ammon, Moab, and Edom are the lands east of Canaan, partly in (modern) Jordan, partly in Israel.Obadiah (plus Jeremiah, et al) contains oracles against Edom.The sin was a lack of brotherly love. Instead, bitterness, vengeance, lack of forgiveness.Ammon (1:13-15)Barbaric cruelty: pregnant women were ripped open to ensure that male offspring would not rise up to avenge their enemies.Tiglath-Pileser I was praised by his chroniclers in the 11th C. BC for the ruthless murder of pregnant women and the children in their wombs.Menahem (2 Kings 15:16), ruling a few years after the time of Amos, did the same thing.Again, there will be no escape from the impending judgment.Moab (2:1-3)Burned bones to lime amounts to desecration of the dead, a serious transgression in ancient times.At Kerioth (v.2) was a shrine to Chemosh.Judah (2:4-5), the southern part of the divided kingdomShe survived longer (till 586 BC, when the Babylonians sacked Jerusalem).She was only relatively more righteous than the northern kingdom of Israel, which fell in 722 BC at the hand of the Assyrians.Including Judah proves that Amos wasn't prejudiced.Seven nations have been singled out. But Amos isn't done yet. We come to the climax in 2:6-16, which is the substance of our third lesson in the series.ConclusionThe Lord is sovereign over all the world, over all nations. If the nations are held responsible for their actions, how much more the people of God! Yet instead of viewing themselves as belonging exclusively to God, Israel viewed God as belonging exclusively to them.Advanced:The 7 target nations were all at one time under the control of David.Three acts… four (x, x+1) is a common literary device in the wisdom literature. (See Proverbs 6:16-19, 30:18-19,21-23,29-31; Sirach 26:5-6.) This implies each nation has done more than enough to deserve punishment.House of Hazael (v.4) probably refers to Hazael (c.843-796) and Ben-Hadad III (c.796-770), who caused much trouble for Jehoram, Jehu, and Jehoahaz.Gath is usually ignored in oracles against the Philistines. Sargon of Assyria destroyed Gath in 711 BC.Re: v.11, brother may mean treaty-partner, as in 1 Samuel 20:29, 1 Kings 9:13.Kerioth may be singled out because it contained a shrine for Chemosh, as recorded in the Mesha inscription. (Click here to learn about this inscription.)

This is a cool episode, because Grant Canary has found a way to make money by cooling the planet—with trees! In episode 98 with Maddie Hall, we learned about how her startup, Living Carbon, is bioengineering trees to grow faster so we can reforest the planet faster. And in this 101st episode, we'll hear about a different approach to reforestation. Every year, millions of acres of forests in the US burn down, and the number of acres burning is increasing annually. We know that trees not only provide critical wildlife habitat, but they're an important part of keeping carbon out of the atmosphere, yet literally billions of trees burn up in wildfires each year. Regardless of how fast those trees grow, just imagine how much time it would take to hand plant enough seeds to replace billions of burned trees. Enter Drone Seed. Founded in 2016, the company's raised well over $30 million from venture investors so far to essentially automate the reforestation process. Rather than planting seeds by hand or even randomly from the air, the 100-person startup's drones survey the burned land, plan the mission, and then strategically drop pucks filled with seeds and the nutrients they'll need to grow in the areas they're most likely going to take root. The company is already selling carbon offsets to companies like Shopify, proving that sometimes it can be more profitable to grow a forest than to cut one down. Discussed in this episode Grant recommends The Lean Startup, The Hard Thing About Hard Things, and Multipliers Shopify's Planet app Mark Rober video TechCrunch story and CNBC story about Drone Seed More about Grant Canary Grant Canary is Founder and Chief Executive Officer of DroneSeed, which reforests after wildfire using heavy lift drone swarms. It was founded to make reforestation scalable and mitigate the worst effects of climate change. It recently acquired subsidiary Silvaseed which has been expanded to be the largest private seed bank on the west coast. The company is now a one-stop-shop for reforestation providing seed, seedlings, aerial seeding, and financing via carbon credits. Grant has focused his entire career on sustainability—working at Vestas wind energy in China, the US and Denmark, and for the US Green Building Council in its infancy. He has had one prior acquisition. He founded Biosystems Co., in Bogotá, Colombia that utilized food waste to feed insect larvae for use as industrial fish feed— alleviating overfishing pressure and utilizing food waste. He worked with the acquirer to scale that company to a 60k sq ft insect protein factory which is going strong today. Grant is a pacific NW native growing up in Oregon playing chess, then poker, then improv. By virtue of DroneSeed he is a Techstars Seattle Alumni ('16), Mulago Foundation Fellow, and Grist list of 50 Fixers.
