WhoDeb Hatley, Owner of Hatley Pointe, North CarolinaRecorded onJuly 30, 2025About Hatley PointeClick here for a mountain stats overviewOwned by: Deb and David Hatley since 2023 - purchased from Orville English, who had owned and operated the resort since 1992Located in: Mars Hill, North CarolinaYear founded: 1969 (as Wolf Laurel or Wolf Ridge; both names used over the decades)Pass affiliations: Indy Pass, Indy+ Pass – 2 days, no blackoutsClosest neighboring ski areas: Cataloochee (1:25), Sugar Mountain (1:26)Base elevation: 4,000 feetSummit elevation: 4,700 feetVertical drop: 700 feetSkiable acres: 54Average annual snowfall: 65 inchesTrail count: 21 (4 beginner, 11 intermediate, 6 advanced)Lift count: 4 active (1 fixed-grip quad, 1 ropetow, 2 carpets); 2 inactive, both on the upper mountain (1 fixed-grip quad, 1 double)Why I interviewed herOur world has not one map, but many. Nature drew its own with waterways and mountain ranges and ecosystems and tectonic plates. We drew our maps on top of these, to track our roads and borders and political districts and pipelines and railroad tracks.Our maps are functional, simplistic. They insist on fictions. Like the 1,260-mile-long imaginary straight line that supposedly splices the United States from Canada between Washington State and Minnesota. This frontier is real so long as we say so, but if humanity disappeared tomorrow, so would that line.Nature's maps are more resilient. This is where water flows because this is where water flows. If we all go away, the water keeps flowing. This flow, in turn, impacts the shape and function of the entire world.One of nature's most interesting maps is its mountain map. For most of human existence, mountains mattered much more to us than they do now. Meaning: we had to respect these giant rocks because they stood convincingly in our way. It took European settlers centuries to navigate en masse over the Appalachians, which is not even a severe mountain range, by global mountain-range standards. But paved roads and tunnels and gas stations every five miles have muted these mountains' drama. You can now drive from the Atlantic Ocean to the Midwest in half a day.So spoiled by infrastructure, we easily forget how dramatically mountains command huge parts of our world. In America, we know this about our country: the North is cold and the South is warm. And we define these regions using battle maps from a 19th Century war that neatly bisected the nation. Another imaginary line. We travel south for beaches and north to ski and it is like this everywhere, a gentle progression, a continent-length slide that warms as you descend from Alaska to Panama.But mountains disrupt this logic. Because where the land goes up, the air grows cooler. And there are mountains all over. And so we have skiing not just in expected places such as Vermont and Maine and Michigan and Washington, but in completely irrational ones like Arizona and New Mexico and Southern California. And North Carolina.North Carolina. That's the one that surprised me. When I started skiing, I mean. Riding hokey-poke chairlifts up 1990s Midwest hills that wouldn't qualify as rideable surf breaks, I peered out at the world to figure out where else people skied and what that skiing was like. And I was astonished by how many places had organized skiing with cut trails and chairlifts and lift tickets, and by how many of them were way down the Michigan-to-Florida slide-line in places where I thought that winter never came: West Virginia and Virginia and Maryland. And North Carolina.Yes there are ski areas in more improbable states. But Cloudmont, situated in, of all places, Alabama, spins its ropetow for a few days every other year or so. North Carolina, home to six ski areas spinning a combined 35 chairlifts, allows for no such ambiguity: this is a ski state. And these half-dozen ski centers are not marginal operations: Sugar Mountain and Cataloochee opened for the season last week, and they sometimes open in October. Sugar spins a six-pack and two detach quads on a 1,200-foot vertical drop.This geographic quirk is a product of our wonderful Appalachian Mountain chain, which reaches its highest points not in New England but in North Carolina, where Mount Mitchell peaks at 6,684 feet, 396 feet higher than the summit of New Hampshire's Mount Washington. This is not an anomaly: North Carolina is home to six summits taller than Mount Washington, and 12 of the 20-highest in the Appalachians, a range that stretches from Alabama to Newfoundland. And it's not just the summits that are taller in North Carolina. The highest ski area base elevation in New England is Saddleback, which measures 2,147 feet at the bottom of the South Branch quad (the mountain more typically uses the 2,460-foot measurement at the bottom of the Rangeley quad). Either way, it's more than 1,000 feet below the lowest base-area elevation in North Carolina:Unfortunately, mountains and elevation don't automatically equal snow. And the Southern Appalachians are not exactly the Kootenays. It snows some, sometimes, but not so much, so often, that skiing can get by on nature's contributions alone - at least not in any commercially reliable form. It's no coincidence that North Carolina didn't develop any organized ski centers until the 1960s, when snowmaking machines became efficient and common enough for mass deployment. But it's plenty cold up at 4,000 feet, and there's no shortage of water. Snowguns proved to be skiing's last essential ingredient.Well, there was one final ingredient to the recipe of southern skiing: roads. Back to man's maps. Specifically, America's interstate system, which steamrolled the countryside throughout the 1960s and passes just a few miles to Hatley Pointe's west. Without these superhighways, western North Carolina would still be a high-peaked wilderness unknown and inaccessible to most of us.It's kind of amazing when you consider all the maps together: a severe mountain region drawn into the borders of a stable and prosperous nation that builds physical infrastructure easing the movement of people with disposable income to otherwise inaccessible places that have been modified for novel uses by tapping a large and innovative industrial plant that has reduced the miraculous – flight, electricity, the internet - to the commonplace. And it's within the context of all these maps that a couple who knows nothing about skiing can purchase an established but declining ski resort and remake it as an upscale modern family ski center in the space of 18 months.What we talked aboutHurricane Helene fallout; “it took every second until we opened up to make it there,” even with a year idle; the “really tough” decision not to open for the 2023-24 ski season; “we did not realize what we were getting ourselves into”; buying a ski area when you've never worked at a ski area and have only skied a few times; who almost bought Wolf Ridge and why Orville picked the Hatleys instead; the importance of service; fixing up a broken-down ski resort that “felt very old”; updating without losing the approachable family essence; why it was “absolutely necessary” to change the ski area's name; “when you pulled in, the first thing that you were introduced to … were broken-down machines and school buses”; Bible verses and bare trails and busted-up everything; “we could have spent two years just doing cleanup of junk and old things everywhere”; Hatley Pointe then and now; why Hatley removed the double chair; a detachable six-pack at Hatley?; chairlifts as marketing and branding tools; why the Breakaway terrain closed and when it could return and in what form; what a rebuilt summit lodge could look like; Hatley Pointe's new trails; potential expansion; a day-ski area, a resort, or both?; lift-served mountain bike park incoming; night-skiing expansion; “I was shocked” at the level of après that Hatley drew, and expanding that for the years ahead; North Carolina skiing is all about the altitude; re-opening The Bowl trail; going to online-only sales; and lessons learned from 2024-25 that will build a better Hatley for 2025-26.What I got wrongWhen we recorded this conversation, the ski area hadn't yet finalized the name of the new green trail coming off of Eagle – it is Pat's Way (see trailmap above).I asked if Hatley intended to install night-skiing, not realizing that they had run night-ski operations all last winter.Why now was a good time for this interviewPardon my optimism, but I'm feeling good about American lift-served skiing right now. Each of the past five winters has been among the top 10 best seasons for skier visits, U.S. ski areas have already built nearly as many lifts in the 2020s (246) as they did through all of the 2010s (288), and multimountain passes have streamlined the flow of the most frequent and passionate skiers between mountains, providing far more flexibility at far less cost than would have been imaginable even a decade ago.All great. But here's the best stat: after declining throughout the 1980s and ‘90s, the number of active U.S. ski areas stabilized around the turn of the century, and has actually increased for five consecutive winters:Those are National Ski Areas Association numbers, which differ slightly from mine. I count 492 active ski hills for 2023-24 and 500 for last winter, and I project 510 potentially active ski areas for the 2025-26 campaign. But no matter: the number of active ski operations appears to be increasing.But the raw numbers matter less than the manner in which this uptick is happening. In short: a new generation of owners is resuscitating lost or dying ski areas. Many have little to no ski industry experience. Driven by nostalgia, a sense of community duty, plain business opportunity, or some combination of those things, they are orchestrating massive ski area modernization projects, funded via their own wealth – typically earned via other enterprises – or by rallying a donor base.Examples abound. When I launched The Storm in 2019, Saddleback, Maine; Norway Mountain, Michigan; Woodward Park City; Thrill Hills, North Dakota; Deer Mountain, South Dakota; Paul Bunyan, Wisconsin; Quarry Road, Maine; Steeplechase, Minnesota; and Snowland, Utah were all lost ski areas. All are now open again, and only one – Woodward – was the project of an established ski area operator (Powdr). Cuchara, Colorado and Nutt Hill, Wisconsin are on the verge of re-opening following decades-long lift closures. Bousquet, Massachusetts; Holiday Mountain, New York; Kissing Bridge, New York; and Black Mountain, New Hampshire were disintegrating in slow-motion before energetic new owners showed up with wrecking balls and Home Depot frequent-shopper accounts. New owners also re-energized the temporarily dormant Sandia Peak, New Mexico and Tenney, New Hampshire.One of my favorite revitalization stories has been in North Carolina, where tired, fire-ravaged, investment-starved, homey-but-rickety Wolf Ridge was falling down and falling apart. The ski area's season ended in February four times between 2018 and 2023. Snowmaking lagged. After an inferno ate the summit lodge in 2014, no one bothered rebuilding it. Marooned between the rapidly modernizing North Carolina ski trio of Sugar Mountain, Cataloochee, and Beech, Wolf Ridge appeared to be rapidly fading into irrelevance.Then the Hatleys came along. Covid-curious first-time skiers who knew little about skiing or ski culture, they saw opportunity where the rest of us saw a reason to keep driving. Fixing up a ski area turned out to be harder than they'd anticipated, and they whiffed on opening for the 2023-24 winter. Such misses sometimes signal that the new owners are pulling their ripcords as they launch out of the back of the plane, but the Hatleys kept working. They gut-renovated the lodge, modernized the snowmaking plant, tore down an SLI double chair that had witnessed the signing of the Declaration of Independence. And last winter, they re-opened the best version of the ski area now known as Hatley Pointe that locals had seen in decades.A great winter – one of the best in recent North Carolina history – helped. But what I admire about the Hatleys – and this new generation of owners in general – is their optimism in a cultural moment that has deemed optimism corny and naïve. Everything is supposed to be terrible all the time, don't you know that? They didn't know, and that orientation toward the good, tempered by humility and patience, reversed the long decline of a ski area that had in many ways ceased to resonate with the world it existed in.The Hatleys have lots left to do: restore the Breakaway terrain, build a new summit lodge, knot a super-lift to the frontside. And their Appalachian salvage job, while impressive, is not a very repeatable blueprint – you need considerable wealth to take a season off while deploying massive amounts of capital to rebuild the ski area. The Hatley model is one among many for a generation charged with modernizing increasingly antiquated ski areas before they fall over dead. Sometimes, as in the examples itemized above, they succeed. But sometimes they don't. Comebacks at Cockaigne and Hickory, both in New York, fizzled. Sleeping Giant, Wyoming and Ski Blandford, Massachusetts both shuttered after valiant rescue attempts. All four of these remain salvageable, but last week, Four Seasons, New York closed permanently after 63 years.That will happen. We won't be able to save every distressed ski area, and the potential supply of new or revivable ski centers, barring massive cultural and regulatory shifts, will remain limited. But the protectionist tendencies limiting new ski area development are, in a trick of human psychology, the same ones that will drive the revitalization of others – the only thing Americans resist more than building something new is taking away something old. Which in our country means anything that was already here when we showed up. A closed or closing ski area riles the collective angst, throws a snowy bat signal toward the night sky, a beacon and a dare, a cry and a plea: who wants to be a hero?Podcast NotesOn Hurricane HeleneHelene smashed inland North Carolina last fall, just as Hatley was attempting to re-open after its idle year. Here's what made the storm so bad:On Hatley's socialsFollow:On what I look for at a ski resortOn the Ski Big Bear podcastIn the spirit of the article above, one of the top 10 Storm Skiing Podcast guest quotes ever came from Ski Big Bear, Pennsylvania General Manager Lori Phillips: “You treat everyone like they paid a million dollars to be there doing what they're doing”On ski area name changesI wrote a piece on Hatley's name change back in 2023:Ski area name changes are more common than I'd thought. I've been slowly documenting past name changes as I encounter them, so this is just a partial list, but here are 93 active U.S. ski areas that once went under a different name. If you know of others, please email me.On Hatley at the point of purchase and nowGigantic collections of garbage have always fascinated me. That's essentially what Wolf Ridge was at the point of sale:It's a different place now:On the distribution of six-packs across the nationSix-pack chairlifts are rare and expensive enough that they're still special, but common enough that we're no longer amazed by them. Mostly - it depends on where we find such a machine. Just 112 of America's 3,202 ski lifts (3.5 percent) are six-packs, and most of these (75) are in the West (60 – more than half the nation's total, are in Colorado, Utah, or California). The Midwest is home to a half-dozen six-packs, all at Boyne or Midwest Family Ski Resorts operations, and the East has 31 sixers, 17 of which are in New England, and 12 of which are in Vermont. If Hatley installed a sixer, it would be just the second such chairlift in North Carolina, and the fifth in the Southeast, joining the two at Wintergreen, Virginia and the one at Timberline, West Virginia.On the Breakaway fireWolf Ridge's upper-mountain lodge burned down in March 2014. Yowza:On proposed expansions Wolf Ridge's circa 2007 trailmap teases a potential expansion below the now-closed Breakaway terrain:Taking our time machine back to the late ‘80s, Wolf Ridge had envisioned an even more ambitious expansion:The Storm explores the world of lift-served skiing year-round.

Am 19.11.1805 wird Ferdinand de Lesseps geboren. Der Bau des Suezkanals macht den französischen Diplomaten zum Nationalhelden. Am Panamakanal scheitert er. Von Christoph Vormweg.
Le mot “pseudocide” intrigue : on dirait un terme issu d'un roman policier. Pourtant, il désigne un phénomène bien réel, parfois tragique, parfois déroutant. Le pseudocide, c'est tout simplement l'acte de simuler sa propre mort. Une disparition organisée, volontaire, parfois extrêmement sophistiquée, dont l'objectif est toujours le même : faire croire au monde que l'on n'existe plus.Le pseudocide se distingue de la disparition volontaire ou de la cavale classique par un élément clé : il implique une mise en scène. La personne laisse derrière elle des indices destinés à convaincre les proches, les enquêteurs ou la presse qu'elle est décédée. Accident de voiture truqué, vêtements abandonnés en bord de mer, bateau retrouvé vide, fausse agression… les scénarios varient, mais suivent une logique commune : créer suffisamment de vraisemblance pour que personne ne soupçonne une fuite.Mais pourquoi simuler sa mort ? Les motivations sont multiples. Certains cherchent à échapper à des dettes, à la justice, ou à une situation personnelle devenue insupportable. D'autres veulent fuir une pression médiatique ou familiale. Il existe même des cas où le pseudocide est commis par désespoir, comme une manière radicale de rompre avec une vie jugée ingérable.L'histoire regorge d'exemples étonnants. L'un des plus célèbres est celui de John Darwin, un Britannique qui, en 2002, simule sa mort en canoë pour échapper à ses dettes. Pendant cinq ans, il vit dans une chambre secrète au domicile conjugal, avant que l'affaire n'éclate lorsque lui et sa femme apparaissent naïvement sur une photo prise… au Panama. D'autres cas restent mystérieux, comme celui de certaines célébrités supposément “disparues” mais que l'on croit apercevoir des années plus tard.Le pseudocide est rarement couronné de succès durable. Simuler sa mort entraîne presque toujours des conséquences juridiques lourdes : fraude à l'assurance, falsification de documents, obstruction à la justice. Et surtout, un pseudocide s'effondre souvent à cause de détails anodins : un retrait bancaire, un message envoyé, une photo publiée, une simple erreur humaine qui dévoile la supercherie.Sur le plan psychologique, disparaître ainsi demande une préparation mentale extrême : renoncer à ses proches, couper toute communication, vivre sous une nouvelle identité, accepter la solitude et le stress constant de l'anonymat. Beaucoup de “revenants” témoignent d'un profond malaise, comme si l'acte de fuir sa vie l'avait rendue encore plus lourde à porter.En somme, le pseudocide est un acte de rupture totale, spectaculaire et souvent tragique. Une disparition qui, derrière son apparente audace, révèle surtout une immense détresse ou un désespoir prêt à tout pour recommencer à zéro. Hébergé par Acast.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, Bryan takes listeners across Venezuela, Colombia, Mexico, and Chile to reveal a regional battle between the Left and the Right. He then connects these global trends to the rise of Democratic Socialism in the United States and explains what a socialist future for America would look like in the words of the Democratic Socialists of America themselves. Trump Weighs Strikes in Venezuela and Colombia: The USS Gerald Ford carrier strike group has arrived off the Venezuelan coast with fifteen thousand U.S. troops in the region. Trump says he will not rule out military action or even ground forces against the Maduro regime, which the State Department has formally labeled a terrorist organization. Maduro has offered Trump access to Venezuela's massive oil reserves in exchange for staying in power, and the White House is openly considering all options. In Colombia, Marxist president Gustavo Petro continues to defend his past with the M-19 terror group. Trump signaled he is willing to hit Colombian drug labs if necessary, saying he would be "proud" to destroy them. Mexico Erupts Over Cartel Violence: Mexico City saw a weekend of violent protests that left one hundred officers injured. Outrage grew after the assassination of a popular mayor in Michoacan by a cartel-recruited teen. Protesters blasted President Claudia Sheinbaum's approach of "Hugs, Not Bullets," arguing it has empowered cartels and left communities defenseless. Younger Mexicans filled the streets, furious that their country remains trapped between socialist leadership and cartel domination. Chile Rejects the Far Left: Seventy percent of Chilean voters backed conservative candidates in the first round of the presidential election. Jose Kast, a conservative Catholic with nine children, will face Communist Party member Jeanne Jara in the December runoff. Voters say crime, cartels, and mass illegal migration have pushed the nation to the breaking point. Kast has vowed to secure the border with walls and landmines, expand prisons, and cut leftist funding that has fueled unrest and economic decline. The Bigger Picture: A Hemisphere in Revolt: Across Latin America, leftist governments are collapsing under crime, corruption, and failed socialist policies. Voters in Bolivia, Argentina, Ecuador, Panama, and El Salvador have already swung to the Right. Europe is shifting too. Yet the United States is moving in the opposite direction. Cities like New York and Seattle are embracing radical Democratic Socialists who draw inspiration from Latin American Marxists. What a Socialist America Would Look Like: Bryan walks through the Democratic Socialists of America's own strategy document from 2012. The group calls for abolishing private business, seizing the means of production, replacing entrepreneurs with government bureaucrats, and using the Democratic Party as a host to move the country toward Marxism. DSA leaders admit there is no blueprint for how their system would work and acknowledge the violent history of Marxist regimes. Their model depends on free housing, free jobs, free education, and government assigned careers funded by an undefined source. Bryan warns that the movement is already advancing inside the Democratic Party with leaders like AOC and Zohran Mamdani openly following the playbook.

What if the biggest barrier to healing… is the belief that you're broken? So many of us are doing everything right — eating better, moving more, trying to fix our health — but deep down, we're carrying a quiet belief that we're not enough. That our body is the problem. That healing has to come through restriction, guilt, or perfection. But what if real change begins not with feeling shame — but love? In this week's episode, we sit down with Ocean Robbins, CEO of the Food Revolution Network, for a deep, honest conversation about what it means to root health in compassion — not shame. Ocean is the son of John Robbins, who famously walked away from the Baskin-Robbins empire to write Diet for a New America. Ocean has forged his own path — helping millions transform their relationship with food and health to experience what truly matters to us in life. In this episode we explore: Why so many people feel like they're failing at health How Ocean's upbringing shaped his values and mission The tension between grief, perfectionism, and purpose What it means to choose love — again and again This conversation was one of our most soulful and resonant yet — and I'm so glad to have Po back for it. You're definitely in for a treat. So whether you've felt stuck, not enough, and are looking for a gentler path forward — this episode is for you. Until next time… Live well and RAK ON, – Dr. Rak
What happens when science, law, and love for the Ocean come together? Callie Veelenturf, marine conservation biologist and National Geographic Explorer, has walked the nesting beaches with sea turtles and worked hand in hand with coastal communities, turning relationship into real protection. Michelle Bender, an international leader in Ocean Rights, is helping reshape law itself—pioneering policies that recognize the Ocean and her beings not as resources, but as relatives with rights of their own.In this conversation, Callie and Michelle share how their paths of biology and law weave into a movement for change: sea turtles and people thriving side by side, orcas and other beings gaining legal recognition, and humanity stepping into its role as caretaker of the living Sea. Be inspired by two voices showing that transformation is not only possible—it is already underway.Callie Veelenturf is a marine conservation biologist, National Geographic Explorer, a Scientist with the United Nations Harmony with Nature Programme, and Founder of The Leatherback Project and National Geographic Society's program For Nature, who inspires high-impact conservation measures through collaborative scientific research initiatives. Callie has a special focus on marine turtles, ocean ecosystems and the Rights of Nature. As Founder of The Leatherback Project, she has trained over two thousand Panamanian Army and Navy soldiers in the recognition of illegal sea turtle products; identified new to science sea turtle nesting and foraging sites; and spearheaded groundbreaking conservation proposals and laws in Panama including a new National Wildlife Refuge; Law 287 recognizing the Rights of Nature; and Article 29 of Law 371 that recognizes sea turtles as legal entities with specific rights. She leads the Operations for three field research programs that document coastal development threats, justify new protection measures, and combat fisheries bycatch in the Pearl Islands Archipelago, Darien Gap, and project Iluminar el Mar from 2022-2025 in Ecuador. Most recently, she has received the 2024 Future For Nature Award, 2024 Schmidt Ocean Institute Visionary Award, and 2024 New Explorer of The Year Award from The Explorers Club and been named a 2022 United Nations Development Programme Ocean Innovator and 2020 National Geographic Early Career Leader.Michelle Bender is the creator and leading expert in the movement towards "Ocean Rights," the application of Rights of Nature in the ocean policy seascape. She has provided her expertise to Rights of Nature laws and policies worldwide, including in the United States (Rhode Island and Washington), Panama (national law, sea turtle conservation law and marine reserve), the Philippines (national law), Aruba (constitutional amendment), the Moananui Sanctuary Agreement to recognise whales as legal persons, and within international law and institutions (IUCN Motion 056 (2025)). She serves on the Advisory Board for the Global Alliance for the Rights of Nature, is a member of the IUCN's World Commission on Environmental Law, an expert of the UN Harmony with Nature initiative and Steering Committee Member for the UN Ocean Decade Coordination Office on Connecting People and the Ocean.

Music industry veteran Eddie Gilreath pulls up to the Corner Booth at Skip Paige's Little Bar to trace an extraordinary journey from Philadelphia's sound to global stages. With hosts Patrick Evans and Randy Florence, he recalls faking his first bass gig at 14, serving in Panama during tense Cold War days, then rising through Motown and Warner Bros. to help break artists like the Spinners and George Benson. Eddie shares inside stories about working with icons including Frank Sinatra, Ray Charles, Smokey Robinson, Michael Jackson, Bonnie Raitt, Curtis Mayfield, and more—plus why some of the most memorable moments happened offstage. He talks about smashing industry barriers as a pioneering Black executive, his “Black Music Is Green” initiative, and how streaming has rewritten the rules for new artists. It's a masterclass in music, marketing, and humanity from a man who quietly shaped the soundtrack of our lives. From basement rehearsals to boardrooms, Eddie's story is funny, candid, and deeply inspiring.Takeaways:How a missing bass player at a Philly cabaret accidentally launched Eddie's music career at 14.Serving in Panama during a volatile Cold War era and keeping music alive even in a combat zone.Moving from musician to executive, rising through Motown and Warner Bros. during the heyday of soul and pop.The strategy behind breaking acts like the Spinners and George Benson, including the massive success of Breezin'.Becoming the first African American national sales director and vice president at Warner, and refusing to be pigeonholed into “just” Black music.Intimate, often funny stories about working with legends: Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr., Smokey Robinson, Curtis Mayfield, Ray Charles, Michael Jackson, Cher, George Clinton, and more.Creating the “Black Music Is Green” initiative and using hard data and retail relationships to open doors for more Black professionals in the business.Reflections on Broadway cast albums, the streaming-era music economy, and why Eddie hopes his legacy is simply that he “did the right things.”#BigConversationsLittleBarPodcast #PatrickEvans #RandyFlorence #SkipsLittleBar #MutualBroadcastingSystem #CoachellaValleyResidents #SkipPaige #McCallumTheatre #EddieGilreath #MotownRecords #WarnerBrothersRecords #MusicIndustryLegends #GeorgeBenson #RayCharles #CurtisMayfield #MichaelJackson #RecordBusinessHistory #BlackMusicIsGreen #PhiladelphiaSound #PanamaVeteran
Panama City, Panama - 29th October to 1st November - Team Ireland has achieved an outstanding result at the 2025 FIRST Global Challenge, placing 8th in the world, the highest ever finish for Ireland. The event, held this year in Panama City, brought together the brightest young minds in robotics, engineering, and innovation to tackle real-world problems through technology and teamwork. The FIRST Global Challenge is an international robotics competition that aims to inspire science and technology leadership and innovation among youth worldwide. Each year, FIRST Global invites every country to send a team to design and build a robot to compete. Teams collaborate to complete challenges in a game designed around solving some of the world's biggest issues. This year's theme focuses on biodiversity loss and the ways we can work to prevent it. The competition aims to inspire global cooperation and understanding among young people as they use their skills and creativity to tackle real-world problems. FIRST Global Challenge Robotics Competition 2025 Representing Ireland, the team demonstrated exceptional creativity, technical skill, and collaboration throughout the competition. The 8th place finish, Ireland's highest ever ranking, was accompanied by 2 further awards, The Video storytelling award, and The Social Media award. This high finish allowed them to advance onto the play-off stage of the competition, where only teams of the highest quality compete. For each match, teams were grouped into alliances of 3 V 3 with alliances changing for every match. It was a test of technology and problem solving, communication across language barriers, and the ability to form new strategies each time. Although all countries started with the same kit, each resulting robot was unique - every country's robot had its own strengths and weaknesses and this required students to collaborate continuously and adapt their strategy as they were allied with country after country - in order to optimise their success in every match. "We're incredibly proud of Team Ireland's success on the world stage," said mentor Pawel Zielinski. "This achievement reflects the team's dedication, creativity, and collaboration over the past few months. It showcases the remarkable talent of young people in Ireland and offers great optimism for the future and what they can achieve." The competition not only highlighted Ireland's growing talent in robotics and engineering but also emphasized the importance of international collaboration and STEM education for solving future challenges. More info about FIRST Global and the World Robotics Competition: FIRST Global is a US charity founded by inventor and innovator Dean Kamen and it strives to convince the various national governments and organizations of the world to embrace STEM education, invest in FIRST programs, and support their young adults. The aim is to nurture cross-cultural communication and cooperation among high-school students around the world through STEM. In doing so students are empowered to collectively tackle the world's most pressing challenges and come up with solutions that improve quality of life for all. The FIRST Global Challenge is the mechanism for doing so. By bringing future STEM leaders together in an engaging and collaborative competition that drives home the importance, excitement, and applicability of STEM education, FIRST Global is using robots and technology challenges to build young adults that have the self-confidence, skill sets, imagination, courage, and vision to do important things. This year's theme challenged FIRST Global teams of students from around the world to collaboratively innovate to maximize biodiversity and protect the incredible variety of life that sustains us all. From rainforests to coral reefs, the health of us and our planet depends on it!

Thousands of people have been marching through the streets of Belem to demand stronger action on tackling global warming, as the UN climate summit continues in the Brazilian city. Indigenous communities, youth groups, and climate activists from across the world were among those joining the rally to mark COP 30's half-way point. We speak to Panama's special representative on climate change Juan Carlos Monterrey Gomez. Also in the programme: President Trump has hit out at Georgia congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene who had been one of his closest allies; why Iceland's former Prime Minister is worried her native language is under threat; and as Pope Leo holds an audience with some of Hollywood's biggest stars, we speak to a nun who is also a film critic.

Today's poem is Panama by Sarah Green. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, Maggie writes… “There's a distinct disenchantment when the spell of the relationship has broken, and the magic's gone. You're not seeing the world through love's rosy lens anymore. You wonder about what you might have overlooked, or misinterpreted, or just got wrong. I mean, I've been there. Most of us have been there more than once. It can take a lot of time and a lot of work, and maybe some therapy, to get to a place of acceptance, let alone contentment, after an important relationship ends. It can take even longer to get to a place of gratitude: to be able to parse how or why it ended from what it WAS. To be able to separate the END of the story from the story as a whole. To be grateful for what the relationship gave you and taught you.” Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today. Every donation makes a difference: https://tinyurl.com/rjm4synp

This episode traces the Marine Corps' transformation from the late 1800s into the modern force recognized today. It begins with the creation of Parris Island and the evolution of Marine training, from tents and marshland to a world-class recruit depot tested by war, tragedy, and reform. The story moves through Panama, where Marines became America's instrument of order, and into the age of steel ships and global ambition. It follows their battles in Cuba, the Philippines, and across Central America during the Banana Wars, where the Corps learned the lessons of small wars, air-ground coordination, and constabulary duty. Figures like Charles Heywood, John A. Lejeune, and Smedley Butler emerge as the architects of a professional, expeditionary force. By the time the last Marines left Nicaragua in 1933, the Corps had been reshaped, no longer a naval guard but a global instrument of American power, forged in hardship and defined by purpose.

We had a great time catching up with retired Army Major Stacy Lively, a former high school classmate whose 27-year military career took him all over the world — from Panama to Iraq and Afghanistan. Stacy enlisted in the Army in 1987 and went on to serve in both Operation Desert Storm and Operation Iraqi Freedom, completing five combat tours totaling 54 months. His journey took him from basic training at Fort Jackson to the 82nd Airborne Division at Fort Bragg, and later to the 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) as a commissioned Infantry Officer. We talk about what service really means, the transition from military to civilian life, lessons from leadership under fire, and of course — a few laughs and memories along the way. It's a genuine, down-to-earth conversation with someone who's lived a life of commitment, courage, and perspective. A podcast centered around our soldiers, veterans, and the civilians they protect! Through conversations, questions, and stories - we will address topics like healthcare, lessons learned, relationships, combat, the transition out of the military, and more! Our veterans take an oath - we say a pledge - what does that mean and why are they important?!

dattrax: Welcome my Fellow Brothers & Sisters to where house music resides. Hope all is well in your corner of the world.Have you had one of those rare days where 6-7 things go wrong and you're on your knees praying because you're so broken? I had one of those days last December. From 10am till past midnight. EVERYTHING went wrong. One after another. LMAO.If I described that day, then no one would believe it. Plus, I'd sound like I'm whining, which is not what I want to do. I only visit the past to gather insights, NOT to wallow in my negativity. We're NOT victims.We all go through negative stuff. Probably not as bad as other people, even though we don't want to compare. (Comparison is the basis of discouragement because we compare our valleys to someone's hilltops).All we can control is our reaction to the circumstances as they occur.As bad as any day, it'll have to end soon. Hold on to that.House music heals and restores. This is a 2nd attempt for this batch of beautiful vocal house tracks that I wanted to include in this mix of healing, and it's one of my most personal mixes.We don't value beauty and art without going through the dark times.I hope and pray that you get on top of your circumstances. That you forge ahead with a smile on your face and a great attitude.After wading through a valley, a hill is bound to come up on the horizon.One battle in our mind at a time.These are my Chinese fortune cookies for today.Much love and respect.Thank you for listening to this mix. I appreciate you. You could have chosen to spend your time anywhere else you'd like. Thank you. All the best to you.PS » I want to thank many great friends who have been available to listen or help in my life (especially these last 7 years of my divorce) when they didn't have to do anything. I appreciate you and I hope that I can repay your kindness one day.Thankful and Grateful (I googled the difference).dattrax---------------IMAGE CREDIT: My dear friend, Sunanda and her two wonderful children.

Wir springen in dieser Folge ins Jahr 1938, und sprechen über die vier Schwestern Sigmund Freunds. Nachdem Freud nach England geflüchtet ist, bleiben die betagten Schwestern in Wien zurück. Abgesichert, zumindest hoffen so Sigmund und sein Bruder Alexander, durch einen beträchtlichen Geldbetrag, den sie ihnen zurückgelassen haben. Doch sie unterschätzen damit die Radikalisierung und die Perfidie des NS-Regimes. Vielen Dank an Johanna Frei und Daniela Finzi vom Freud Museum in Wien für das Gespräch und die Quellen für diese Folge.

En un año disminuye 37% el homicidio doloso CDMX instala centro de recolección de cempasúchil Panamá decomisa 12 mil kilos de cocaína en el Pacifico
Dernière ligne droite au Chili avant le premier tour de la présidentielle qui aura lieu ce dimanche. Selon les sondages, se trouve en tête de cette élection polarisée, la candidate du bloc de gauche, Jeannette Jara, suivie de trois candidats de droite et d'extrême droite. Aucun des huit candidats en lice ne remporterait le scrutin dès dimanche ; il y aurait, donc, un second tour en décembre. À quelques jours du vote, chacun jette ses dernières forces dans la bataille. Hier soir, (10 novembre 2025) avait lieu le dernier débat à la télévision. Naïla Derroisné, notre correspondante à Santiago, l'a suivi. La « carcel del encuentro », prison de haute sécurité en Équateur En Équateur, une nouvelle prison de haute sécurité est entrée en service hier, dans la province de Santa Elena, dans l'ouest du pays. Trois cents prisonniers, parmi les plus dangereux que compte le pays, y sont désormais détenus. Il n'y a pas eu d'inauguration officielle de la « carcel del encuentro », souligne le site Primicias. Le gouvernement a décidé d'accélérer le mouvement suite aux affrontements qui ont lieu dimanche dans la prison de Machala, dans le sud-ouest du pays. Affrontements qui ont fait 31 morts et qui ont éclaté en réaction justement aux futurs transferts dans cette nouvelle prison, explique El Universo. Cette prison qui est gérée et surveillée par la police et l'armée, pas par l'administration pénitentiaire, comme le souligne El Mercurio, est une copie du Cecot, l'établissement pénitentiaire de haute sécurité, construit au Salvador et critiqué en raison de violations des droits humains, explique Primicias. La « carcel del encuentro » compte 800 places. Elle est protégée par six miradors de 9,50 m de haut, un mur de 9 mètres, et des brouilleurs d'internet et de téléphone, y compris satellitaire. C'est simple, les détenus n'auront aucun contact avec l'extérieur. Aucun contact entre eux non plus. La prison dispose d'un système de vidéosurveillance qui surveille en permanence, avec l'intelligence artificielle, le comportement des prisonniers, précise le journal Metro. À Cuba, le procès de l'ex-ministre de l'Économie commence aujourd'hui C'est à travers un bref communiqué de la Cour suprême lu pendant le journal de Canal Caribe hier midi que l'information a été dévoilée. Une annonce, la veille de l'ouverture du procès, alors qu'Alejandro Gil, ministre de l'Économie et de la planification de 2018 à 2024, accusé notamment d'espionnage et de corruption, est le plus haut fonctionnaire jamais traduit en justice à Cuba au cours de ces dernières décennies, s'étonne 14ymedio. Sa famille n'était pas au courant et ne sait pas si elle pourra assister à l'audience, ajoute le site qui s'est entretenu avec sa sœur. Contrairement à ce qu'avaient demandé les proches d'Alejandro Gil, le procès aura lieu à huis clos, souligne 14ymedio. La Cour suprême n'a pas spécifié combien de temps il durerait, ni si l'ancien ministre sera jugé pour l'ensemble des faits qui lui sont reprochés. Pas plus de précisions sur les preuves dont elle dispose, insiste le site indépendant qui rappelle que ce manque de transparence dans les affaires judiciaires, c'est la norme à Cuba. À La Havane, un hommage à Celia Cruz, la reine de la salsa Cette soirée, qui devait avoir lieu initialement le 19 octobre pour le centenaire de la naissance de la chanteuse, mais qui a été interdite par le régime, s'est finalement déroulée dimanche soir. C'était « spectaculaire », selon Reinaldo Escobar, le journaliste de 14ymedio, qui y était et semble avoir été emporté comme tout le public. « On a dansé, on a applaudi, on en a profité », écrit-il. Celia Cruz « symbolise la part la plus optimiste, sensuelle et festive de l'âme cubaine, tellement maltraitée par des décennies de sévérité feinte et de discours publics qui exaltent la rancœur et la haine de l'autre », poursuit le journaliste. Pour certains des participants, cette soirée était exceptionnelle parce que c'était la première fois qu'ils écoutaient des chansons de Celia Cruz hors de chez eux. Cette soirée avait un petit goût de « rébellion, de quelque chose que l'on fait même si les chiens de la censure aboient tout près, vraiment tout près », poursuit 14ymedio. Et quant aux répercussions, aux conséquences pour les organisateurs de cette soirée, on va reprendre les mots d'une femme qui a dansé toute la nuit : « On verra bien demain ». Haïti : reprise des connexions entre Miami et Les Cayes Comme chaque mardi, Anne Cantener est en ligne avec Gotson Pierre, directeur de l'agence haïtienne Alterpresse. Avec lui, elle évoque la reprise des vols internationaux aux Cayes, dans le sud d'Haïti, la situation à Tabarre où un « calme relatif » règne après une opération policière, et les promesses d'aide financière et logistique du Qatar. De retour, le président du Conseil, président de transition, s'est entretenu avec la presse haïtienne hier. Selon lui, le Qatar va débourser 44 millions de dollars pour soutenir la Force de lutte contre les gangs, la santé, le logement, l'entrepreneuriat et l'organisation d'élections en 2026. Dans un article à la Une de son site, Alterpresse se penche d'ailleurs sur ce futur scrutin tant attendu. Les forêts du Panama Alors que la COP 30 commence difficilement et sans grandes ambitions au Brésil, notre dossier du jour nous emmène dans les forêts du Panama. Elles représentent plus de la moitié du territoire et sont presque toutes protégées. Il existe, par exemple, un label sur la gestion durable des forêts délivré par l'ONG Forest Stewardship Council. Elle vient de tenir une assemblée générale et notre correspondant Grégoire Pourtier y était. Le journal de la 1ère Le patron de l'Office national anti-stupéfiants est en Martinique.
Hacer click aquí para enviar sus comentarios a este cuento.Juan David Betancur Fernandezelnarradororal@gmail.comHabía una vez en un mundo entre lo que hoy es conocido como el tapon del darien entre Colombia y panama una civilización que vivía en armonía con la selva, los ríos y el mar. Esta sivilizacion eran los indios Cuna. Para ellos todo estaba conectado por un delicado equilibrio que los dioses les habían fabricado. ya que estos habían tejido las relaciones entre los seres humanos con hilos invisibles. Para proteger ese equilibrio, enviaron a una criatura especial: el Anfibio Sagrado, una rana que dorada y que era considerada como un animal magico, con ojos que brillaban como esmeraldas bajo la luna. Este ser no era solo guardián de la naturaleza, sino también mensajero entre los mundos. Podía hablar con los árboles, entender el canto de los pájaros y sumergirse en las aguas profundas para conversar con los espíritus del océano. Su presencia aseguraba que las lluvias llegaran a tiempo, que los peces abundaran y que la tierra diera frutos generosos. Además era el mensajero entre los mundo espirituales y el físico. Su veneracion era la clave para obtener prosperidad, fertilidad y buena fortuna. Pero con el paso de los años, los humanos comenzaron a olvidar. Dejaron de hacer las ofrendas, ignoraron los cantos sagrados y cazaron y pescaron más de lo necesario. Los ríos se enturbiaron, los animales huyeron y la selva comenzó a marchitarse. El Anfibio Sagrado, consiente de que los hombres habían olvidado su importancia y herido por la indiferencia, se retiró a lo más profundo de la tierra, donde ni los sabios podían alcanzarlo.Poco tiempo después se noto el impcato de su ausencia. Al no estará este guardián el mundo comenzó a cambiar y esto trajo sequías, enfermedades y hambre. Los ancianos, desesperados, reunieron a los sabios y chamanes para realizar el Gran Ritual del Recuerdo. Durante siete noches, cantaron, danzaron y ofrecieron objetos sagrados: plumas de guacamayo, semillas de cacao, y agua pura de los manantiales. En la última noche, bajo una luna llena, el Anfibio emergió de una laguna envuelta en niebla.Con voz profunda, dijo: "He escuchado su llamado. Pero el equilibrio no se restaura con palabras, sino con actos. Respeten la tierra como a su madre, escuchen a los animales como a sus hermanos, y recuerden que todo lo que toman debe ser devuelto."Desde entonces, los Cuna celebran cada año el Ritual del Anfibio, donde niños y ancianos se reúnen para contar esta historia, cantar los cantos antiguos y renovar su compromiso con la naturaleza. Porque saben que mientras el Anfibio Sagrado los observe desde las aguas, el mundo seguirá girando en armonía. Por esta razón el pueblo cuna tiene una profunda conexión espiritual con la naturaleza que los rodea y se preocupan por conservar sus tradiciones. Desde el año 2010 Panama erigio a la rana dorada como su símbolo nacional y su se ha declarado una especie en via de extinción lo que para los indios cuna habitantes del valle de anton están dedicado a su protección.
