After securing the Tefillin Shel Yad (the arm Tefillin) onto the bicep, one wraps the strap around the forearm in a particular pattern. This wrapping is not merely aesthetic—it is deeply rooted in Halacha, custom, and Kabbalistic meaning. How many coils are required? In which direction should one wrap? And what happens if one is in a rush or interrupted? What Is the Source for Wrapping the Strap Around the Arm? The Torah says, "Ukeshartam le'ot al yadecha"—"You shall bind them as a sign on your arm." The word "ukeshartam" implies binding, not just placing. Therefore, it is not enough to put the Bayit of the Tefillin Shel Yad on the bicep—one must also wrap the strap around the forearm to fulfill the Misva of binding. This is part of the Tefillin ritual itself, and not an optional step. How Many Times Must the Strap Be Wrapped? According to Sephardic custom, the strap is wrapped eight times around the forearm—between the Bayit on the bicep and the wrist. These eight coils correspond to spiritual and symbolic concepts, including the eight days leading to Berit Milah and the transcendence beyond nature. This number is rooted in the Kabbalistic teachings of the Arizal, and accepted as standard practice by Maran, the Ben Ish Hai, and Hacham Ovadia Yosef. Ashkenazim, however, often wrap the strap seven times, based on different understandings of the required act of "binding." Both customs are valid, and each person should follow their community's tradition. Is the Wrapping a Requirement or Just a Custom? The act of wrapping is a requirement, based on the Torah's word "Ukeshartam." However, the specific number of wraps (e.g., seven or eight) is a matter of custom and not me'akev—it does not invalidate the Misva if one wraps fewer or more times. That said, one should not treat this lightly. The number eight (for Sephardim) or seven (for Ashkenazim) carries deep significance, and by following the traditional count, one aligns with the spiritual energy intended by our sages. If someone accidentally wrapped fewer or more times, or if one of the coils slipped, the Misva is still valid. But it is best to adjust it as soon as possible and aim to wrap correctly the next time. Which Direction Should the Strap Be Wrapped? For Sephardim, the strap is wrapped inward, meaning that the coils go from the outer edge of the arm toward the body, forming a clockwise spiral when looking down the arm. This direction is based on the writings of the Ben Ish Hai, Arizal, and is codified in Yalkut Yosef. It symbolizes drawing the sanctity of the Tefillin inward, binding it to the soul. Some Ashkenazic authorities permit wrapping outward (counter-clockwise), and many Chassidic groups follow that custom. Each person should continue with their family or communal minhag. What Happens If One Wrapped in the Wrong Direction? The direction of the wrapping is not essential to the validity of the Misva. If a person wrapped in the wrong direction—out of habit, error, or imitation—the Tefillin are still kosher, and the blessing does not need to be repeated. However, one should try to correct the practice moving forward, especially if one has been educated or reminded of the proper custom for their community. Is There a Problem with Gaps or Overlaps in the Coils? Ideally, the wraps should be evenly spaced, firm but not tight, and placed one under the other in descending order. Overlapping or very loose coils are discouraged but do not invalidate the Misva. If one is rushed, or if the strap is very long or short, one may wrap looser or more tightly as needed. The main thing is to ensure that the strap forms clear, distinct coils down the forearm. Can the Strap Be Wrapped Over Clothing or a Watch? No. The strap must be wrapped directly on the skin of the forearm. Wrapping over a sleeve, wristwatch, or bandage creates a Hatssitsa (barrier), which may invalidate the Misva. Before wrapping, one should remove any watch or bracelet and ensure the skin is clean. If a person has a wound or bandage and cannot wrap fully, they should wrap to the extent possible on uncovered skin. When Is the Wrapping Performed in the Tefillin Sequence? After placing the Tefillin Shel Yad on the bicep and tightening it, the person recites the Beracha of "Le'hani'ah Tefillin." Then, without interruption, the strap is wrapped around the forearm. The wrapping around the fingers and hand comes after the Tefillin Shel Rosh is placed and secured. This later wrapping is more symbolic and poetic, reflecting verses of commitment to Hashem. But the forearm wrapping is part of the main Misva, and must be done immediately after the Beracha, without speaking or delay. Summary - Wrapping the strap around the forearm is part of the Torah commandment to "bind" Tefillin. - Sephardim wrap eight times; Ashkenazim often wrap seven. - The specific number and direction are not me'akev, but follow strong custom. - Sephardim wrap inward (clockwise), toward the body. - Coils should be neat and on bare skin, not over clothing or watches. - The wrapping must follow the Beracha, without delay or interruption.

It is time for a seasonal update at the intersection of Marketing, Data, Privacy and Technology. As usual, this Newsroom is divided into five blocks: ePrivacy & regulatory updates; MarTech & AdTech; AI, Competition and Digital Markets; PETs and Zero-Party Data; and Future of Media. TL;DL: The use of SDKs for data collection/sharing has been a common factor in various fines and lawsuits on both sides of the pond. The EDPB sparked an important debate on personal data-powered AI in the EU. Texas and California went after Allstate and Honda respectively. La Liga (ES), Netflix (NL), Meta (IR), and others received fines. The FTC put an end to personal data sales by General Motors. The My Health My Data Act (WA) was put to the test. AI “reasoning” models exploded, and then AI Agents followed. Garante (IT) blocked DeepSeek and a class action in Germany could have a major impact across the EU.

I'm currently spending a lot of time supporting my 5.5 month old in learning how to sleep in his crib, and what I've noticed is sleep seems to be something that moms lack, and oftentimes first time or seasoned entrepreneurs lack as well. This thought is exactly what I want to talk about in today's episode – the overlaps between parenting and empathpreneurship. So many of my skill sets and the lessons I've learned over the past decade as an entrepreneur, have helped me being the older first time mama that I am. However, I recognize that there's so much to learn and work through and it can be incredibly overwhelming, but it's not something you ever have to do alone. So, listen in to hear the most common overlaps and struggles along with some practical tips to help you manage both effectively, and hopefully get a little bit more sleep in the process!   Topics: How learning to be adaptable and lean into self-trust has saved Catherine the past few months and allowed to lead with her heart and listen to her intuition  Focusing on managing yourself and your energy levels rather than trying to master “time management” and how Catherine has learned this from motherhood and especially podcasting Developing and innovating your own rulebook as a parent instead of trying to follow someone else's to find more joy and creativity in parenthood  Becoming a team player as an entrepreneur and a parent while learning to be vulnerable, ask for support, and improve openhearted communication     Episode Resources: Ground Yourself in 2025: Choosing a Word of the Year   Connect with Catherine: Apply to join the free Unbounded community, a vibrant group of empathpreneurs who are passionate about supporting each other on our entrepreneurial journeys.  Website LinkedIn Instagram YouTube Sign up to receive my biweekly digest on empathic entrepreneurship and hear from voices committed to spreading this message, sent straight to your inbox since 2016, here.    Work with Catherine: Interested in working 1:1 with a certified coach on Catherine's team, or joining her in one of her premium mastermind programs?

Welcome to the first Fintech Recap of 2025. As always, I'm joined by Jason Mikula, publisher of Fintech Business Weekly and author of the shiny new book Banking as a Service (which I'm loving, by the way), as we catch up post-holiday to dive into the fintech buzz. First pit stop: BaaS Island and the CBW Bank saga. This small player with a big history—partnering with pioneers Moven and Ripple—just got slapped with a major $20M penalty from the FDIC. But CBW is fighting back, challenging the FDIC in court. As fintech blurs the line between community banks and fintech giants, can a community bank charter truly handle nationwide payments and high-stakes BaaS?  Next up, get ready for the IPO tidal wave in 2025. It's shaping up to be a big one for fintech, and Chime is at the forefront, gearing up for its big debut. While there's chatter about their customer count—anywhere from 7M to 38M—one thing's undeniable: Chime boasts a solid customer base with impressive direct deposit adoption. Things are about to get interesting. Moving on, Walmart and Branch are in hot water with the CFPB for allegedly opening accounts for Walmart Spark drivers without consent, forcing them to use Branch or risk termination. This raises huge questions about employers embedding financial services in their workers' lives. Not to mention, the urgent need for tighter oversight on employer-sponsored fintech in 2025. Plus, we rant about Vivek Ramaswamy's unhinged tweet blaming the 90s pop culture—like Boy Meets World and Friends reruns—for America's software engineer shortage. Yep, seriously.  It's  Whiplash reruns or nothing for the "Department of Government Efficiency.” Here's looking at you, 2025. 00:04:19 - Return to BaaS Island 00:23:59 - IPO Watch: Chime 00:40:59 - Walmart x Branch 00:56:35 - Can't Let It Go Sign up for Alex's Fintech Takes newsletter for the latest insightful analysis on fintech trends, along with a heaping pile of pop culture references and copious footnotes.

Robby hosts whitetail hunter Beau Martonik of the East Meets West podcast.  In this episode, they dive deep into the intersection of hunting big mule deer and big whitetails.  Although two different species living in different habitats, these guys have discovered there is an overlap in behavior of the big bucks of both species.  Overlaps like an affinity for heavy cover, similar home ranges (at certain times of the year), and the ability to evade most hunters.  They also discuss the differences in the pursuit of the best bucks of each species. Beau Martonik talks about how he uses trail cameras as one tool for finding big bucks, but not the only tool, and Robby agrees.  They talk about specific tactics for the specific times of the fall like pre-rut, post rut, late season and nuances in between. Whitetail hunters, especially those hunting the big woods of the Eastern US, have a lot in common with mountain mule deer hunters of the West.  Listen in and enjoy the discussion with Beau Martonik and Robby.

If you've considered attending a cruise that relates to your business-you won't want to miss this episode. Learn the ways you can and can't write off a cruise as a business expense. Facebook Group for Tax ProfessionalsFacebook Group for Real Estate Investors [00:00:00] [00:00:00] Welcome to Real Estate is Taxing, where we talk about all things real estate tax, and break down complex concepts into understandable, entertaining tax topics. My name is Natalie Kolodij, I'm your host, and I am so excited that you've decided to join me.[00:00:23] Hello. Hello everyone. And welcome to this week's episode. The past several months, I have attended multiple conferences, tax conferences, real estate conferences, all across the country. Various venues. And it got me thinking about one of my favorite travel business topic. Overlaps. Which is when you can and when you can not. Deduct travel on a cruise ship. [00:00:53] There's a lot of blogs and articles out there, but they're all fairly vague or they give very [00:01:00] generalized steps and don't really talk about the feasibility of it. Or actual examples of it. I spent some time today searching for some court cases related to this topic. And there really aren't any specific to cruise ship travel as its own deduction. [00:01:19] I couldn't find it as a focus point of a case. I did find some court cases that were semi-related we'll chat about one of those at the end. But outside of that, there's not a ton of guidance because it's pretty cut and dry. [00:01:34] [00:01:34] The code section for this hasn't changed since 1982. So there haven't been any big updates or anything that really needed to be contested in recent years. So let's get into it. There are two different ways you can potentially write off a cruise as a business expense. Both of these are covered in code section [00:02:00] 2 74 M and they are split between addressing conventions on cruise ships. And then a secondary category known as luxury water travel. So starting off with conventions on cruise ships. This is something that I hear about pretty often. I think anyone in the tax industry and real estate in a lot of industries, There are multiple cruises per year related to most industries that you can choose to attend. [00:02:33] It will be in most cases, a seven day cruise. They will buy a room block the same way they would for a conference at a hotel or a resort. And then everything takes place on the cruise. There are however many hours of education. There are, different conference related events and networking. [00:02:51] They're renting out general speaking areas. And attendees pay for the room. And the cruise fare, it's all typically rolled [00:03:00] into one price. So these are marketed pretty frequently. And I have most often seen these marketed as a deductible business expense. But the truth of it is very rarely. Is a conference or an educational event on a cruise ship. Going to just easily be deductible. So let's start off with the first. Addressing of this. [00:03:29] So let's look at how the code words, this. In the case of any individual who attends a convention, seminar, or other meeting, which is held on any cruise ship. No deduction shall be allowed under section 1 62 for expenses allocable to such meeting. Unless the taxpayer meets the requirements of paragraph five. And establishes that the meeting is directly related to the active [00:04:00] conduct of his or her trade or business. So code section 1 62. Is the part of the tax code that explains ordinary and necessary business expenses. As a starting point, attending a convention seminar, et cetera, on a cruise ship. Is only a business deduction. If it directly relates to the taxpayers ongoing trader business, that makes sense. Next part. Again, it is directly related to the active conduct of his or her trader business. And that, and then it goes on to list two requirements. Requirement number one, the cruise ship is a vessel that is registered in the United States. And requirement number two. All ports of call of that cruise ship are located in the United States or in possession of the United States. [00:04:53] So when we just start off with looking at these two initial requirements, I will [00:05:00] let you guess how many cruise ships you think fit the bill? If we are looking at large commercial cruise lines. there's a thousand, 2000 people on board, maybe more. It normally is a week long, goes out to a few islands, go somewhere else. But we're not talking about like a river cruise or one of those little boats that'll fit like a hundred to 300 people, But one of those large commercial cruise ships, where there is a buffet and like a kid's club and water slides and all of that. One we're looking at that level of cruise ship. There is one. Singular ship that meets the requirement. Norwegian cruise lines, pride of America based in Hawaii is us registered. And it is the only large commercial cruise lines, cruise ship. That is us registered. Most cruise ships are registered to other countries for a variety of reasons. So just right off the bat, most cruise [00:06:00] ships are not going to meet this requirement. The vast majority of cruises and cruise ships do not check the boxes. To be able to write off a convention or seminar that is held on a cruise ship. If it did, let's say that. Your industry is hosting a cruise that goes to Hawaii on that pride of America cruise ship. So it is us registered and it is only going to the United States. [00:06:28] then there is a $2,000 expense limit. For the total cost of that cruise with that seminar or convention. Total expense CAPTA, $2,000. In addition to that, if you happen to find a cruise that ticks all of the boxes and does qualify. To write off as a convention or an event that is held on a cruise ship. There's a whole bunch of reporting requirements that are required as [00:07:00] well. for the tax year where you're claiming that deduction. You also need to include. A written statement. Signed by the individual attending the meeting. [00:07:10] That includes information about the trip, the total days that excludes the transport to, and from the cruise ship. The number of hours each day of the trip where you devoted to only business activities. You need to include a program or schedule for all of the business activities or meetings. And any other information that might be required by the secretary. [00:07:36] Additionally, you also need to include. A written statement signed by an officer of the organization or group sponsoring the meeting or the conference. And that has to include. A schedule of the business activities for each day, the number of hours, which you attended those business activity. And any other [00:08:00] information as might be required by the secretary. so for the amount that we are fed and marketed cruises that are a tax deduction and attending these seminars on a cruise that are going to be a write off, they're likely not going to be. And in the rare event, they are. They're a huge pain in the ass to include everything you need to on your tax return to claim that deduction. So that's not a very likely option. [00:08:27] It's not my favorite option. But that's what we have for the availability of writing off a convention or a seminar that is specifically held on a cruise ship.[00:08:39] The next option that I think is the far better choice. Is looking at your crews under the definition of luxury...

Nancy Smith is the Conservation Director for The Nature Conservancy's Colorado River Program, and Austin Rempel is the Riparian Restoration Program Manager at The Nature Conservancy. Both Nancy and Austin are working on the front lines of some of the West's most innovative water and habitat conservation projects– projects that benefit everything from groundwater supplies to wildlife habitat, climate resiliency to ecosystem health. - If you've listened to many of these TNC-focused episodes, then you'll know that TNC works extensively throughout the Colorado River Basin on a wide range of conservation issues that affect people, wildlife, and landscapes. In this episode, we're going to zoom in on one very specific, very simple, and very effective process that has the potential to have massive positive impacts on ecosystem health throughout the West. - The process is called “low-tech process-based restoration,” which is the practice of adding simple, low-cost structures made of natural materials like rocks, wood, and posts to simulate natural processes like beaver dams in streams and wetlands, kick-starting natural cycles of recovery. These structures require minimal permitting, can be built quickly by hand without heavy equipment, use locally sourced materials, and can be installed by local workers who do not need extensive training. The end result creates surprisingly effective outcomes that can be scaled quickly across vast stretches of the West. - We recorded this conversation the day after Colorado River Day, which was a fitting time to highlight such an important project and process. We started out by discussing how this project came to be, which involved a significant amount of funding from the Inflation Reduction Act. We discuss how rivers have historically looked in the West versus how they look now, as well as the ecological complexities of riverscapes and riparian corridors.  We then dig into the details of “low-tech process-based restoration”-- timelines, challenges, opportunities, partnerships, and measuring success. We also talk about beavers, shifting cultural norms around conservation, overlaps between forest and riparian restoration, favorite books, and much more. - As you'll hear, Nancy and Austin provide such an excellent overview of several varieties of low-tech process-based restoration. But for those of you who want to dig deeper into details of the various processes and case studies, they've provided me with extensive additional resources that you can access in the episode notes. I'd also encourage you to check out the short film embedded on the episode's webpage, which will give you a visual overview of the process and its results. - A big thanks to Nancy and Austin for the fun conversation, and thank you for listening. --- Nancy Smith Austin Rempel Riparian Restoration short film Full episode notes and links: https://mountainandprairie.com/nancy-austin/ --- This episode is brought to you in partnership with the Colorado chapter of The Nature Conservancy and TNC chapters throughout the Western United States.

The sermon for the Fourth Sunday of Easter based on John 16:16-22

On this week's episode we're joined by Iskandar, known widely on the internet as Alawite Anon, the same fellow who's anonymous post on 4chan went viral a few weeks ago and found itself as the topic of discussion for our episode dubiously labeled “Interview with a Gnostic Muslim.” As fate would have it, he tracked us down and instead of punching us in the nose (which was probably warranted) he offered himself as a subject of interview about his ancient faith and the occult tenants contained therein. In the free section of the show we ask Iskandar about the origins of his people and faith, the esoteric aspects of his practice, the initiatory ordeals and structure of the inner order, its little known connection to the Knights Templar, the rejection of holiness, what occult materials they study and if women may participate or not. While this covers quite a mountain of interesting information, we go quite a bit deeper in the extended episode as we talk about the magickal mother letters AMS, advanced astral travel, the anatomy of the human soul, the origin of the demiurge, if gods can die, the highest principle, how to deal with demons, the Tree of Life, the archons or Sultans of this reality, the earth gates where they reside as guardians, the adversary or shadow entity, LUCIFER and finally, what cosmically horrific thing happens when we die.

That the 20th century shapes our present and will influence our future is common point of debate in India. Clearly, politics and economics, culture and society clearly were deeply influenced, if not fundamentally shaped, by choices made at key points of time. Yet this applies equally, so with even greater long-term consequences, to the environment in its widest sense. In a more focussed way, this is how human actions, via technological choices or the ways land or water are governed, influence the non-human entities we share spaces with. Rather than view ecology and society as two distinct entities, the overlaps and interfaces can shed fresh light on where we stand today. knowing how we got to where we stand matters. India's recent environmental pasts have bearing not only on this country, but Asia and the world at large. In this episode of BIC Talks,  Professor of History and Environmental Studies, Ashoka University Prof. Mahesh Rangarajan delivers the first annual Vijay Thrivuvady memorial lecture that took place at the big premises in early January 2024. Vijay Thiruvady was a naturalist, environmental historian and a true blue Bangalore who will be terribly missed by all who knew him and all who have walked Lal Bagh with him.

When it comes to plastics, we're in a real bind. We have yet to develop and scale attractive alternatives to the petroleum-based plastic products we all use every day, and the plastics industry drives well over a billion tons of greenhouse gasses, that's roughly 4% of total global emissions and plastic-related emissions are on track to double by 2060. Meanwhile, a small fraction – we're talking less than 10% – of plastics are recycled. Creating a circular economy for plastics is vital to eliminating the flow of plastic waste into our environment and to reducing the emissions generated from creating new plastic products. Today's conversation focuses on an ambitious effort to catalyze and fund the systems change needed to get us there. Circulate Capital is working to unlock a billion dollars to invest in circular solutions, and its partner Circulate Initiative offers research and insights to track this space and help recruit more private and public investment in this space. We're joined by Ellen Martin, Circulate Capital's Chief Impact Officer, and Umesh Madhavan, Research Director for Circulate Initiative. We talk about the history and state of the plastics crisis, their current efforts, and the investment opportunities they see. Circulate has impressive momentum in building coalitions of different kinds of investors – from governments to Fortune 100 companies. This blended finance approach is surely a key to mobilizing the commitment we need, and I was grateful to learn so much about it through this conversation. Here we go.

Auditory sensitivity can occur on a spectrum, where hyperacuity may be on the more severe end of the spectrum, and a dislike of loud noises can be on the less severe side of the spectrum. Auditory sensitivity can also be associated with sensory differences with autism, and it can stand alone- it can just be that you have really sensitive ears.

Our biology certainly influences our health and behavior, but the environment can also have a significant impact on our health and well-being. Thanks to the fascinating field of epigenetics, we now understand that factors like our nutrition, movement habits, stress levels, and feelings of emotional connection can affect the way our genes are expressed. So today host Rachel dips her toes into the world of science to discuss epigenetics, mental health, and yoga with guest Valerie Knopik. Valerie has a PhD in Psychology and postdoctoral training in Psychiatric and Genetic Epidemiology. Active in mental health research, Valerie has a deep interest in how our internal biology and our external environment (including yoga, mindfulness, and meditation) can interact to positively change our mental health landscape. In this episode, Valerie helps us understand how our genes alone don't determine our physical or mental health, what kind of environmental factors affect our epigenome, and how various yoga practices can make us more resilient to the environmental stressors we inevitably face.

This episode is a conversation with the wonderful Qigong teacher, Mimi Kuo-Deemer. We discuss this beautiful mindful movement and energy practice from China, and how it invites us to harmonize with the elements of the natural world. You'll hear Mimi's fascinating description of Qigong's history, including her insights from analyzing the Chinese characters for Qi (energy) and Gong (work/skill). We also talk about her experiences living in the US and in China, and how she got started with Yoga and Qigong when she needed embodiment practices to remedy her burnout and health challenges. We cover: Overlaps and differences between Yoga and Qigong How the emphasis on roundness and spherical movements within Qigong can be a great complement to Yoga How embodiment practices support meditation Why the body is more like a garden than a machine   Lastly, I asked Mimi about working with the emotional energy of anger, given the intensity of current events. You'll hear how Chinese Medicine defines "good anger" and what trees can teach us about growing through this natural (if challenging) emotion.
