In China, top leaders are pushing the adoption of Artificial Intelligence. Companies there are using AI at a scale that far outpaces that of the US. That means some Chinese workers are being displaced from their jobs. Now, Chinese courts are stepping in. And in some cases, courts are ruling that worker displacement is unlawful.

8.7.2026 #RolandMartinUnfiltered:Trump White House Targets Lisa Cook Again. 23,000 Jobs Lost. Black Unemployment Gap Persists The White House is renewing its efforts to remove Lisa Cook from the Federal Reserve's Board of Governors. The job market numbers for July have been released, showing a loss of 23,000 jobs, which could indicate a slowdown ahead. Black unemployment rates continue to reflect a persistent gap compared to other racial groups. Economist Morgan Harper will join us to break down the numbers. A newly released report highlights the lack of high-quality math education for Black children. We'll speak with the author of "Calculated Barriers: Examining the History Behind Math Inequities Facing Black Students" to discuss how historical policies and structural practices hinder math literacy, college access, and opportunities in tech fields. Tennessee voters have made their voices heard. We'll break down the candidates who will be on the ballot in November. And in sad news, entertainment journalist Flo Anthony and "Ms. Dupree" from The Tom Joyner Morning Show have passed away.

Commodity-Equity Gap Persists Through July: What It Means for H2 2026

Recording date: 6th August 2026Olive Resource Capital posted a modest decline in July, with its portfolio down just over 1% for the month. Management characterizes the result as effectively flat, given the heightened volatility that defined the period and the fund's favorable performance relative to its internal peer benchmark.Oil and copper led commodity markets higher during July. Oil rebounded on renewed tensions around the Strait of Hormuz, while copper climbed to fresh yearly highs as Chinese warehouse inventories drew down faster than anticipated and production disruptions hit major Chilean mines. Together, these factors created a constructive supply-demand backdrop that management expects to persist in the near term.Precious metals staged a late-month recovery, supported by a US dollar reversal tied to the Federal Open Market Committee's July meeting. Despite gains in gold and silver, precious metals equities broadly lagged, with some declining even as underlying metal prices rose. This divergence between commodity prices and related stocks has been a recurring theme through the first half of 2026.Olive Resource Capital used the month's volatility strategically. Management deployed capital during risk-off periods and leveraged thinner summer liquidity to add positions in energy, uranium, copper, and gold. Notable additions included new buying in CANEX Metals following its consolidation with Gold Basin Resources, and continued accumulation in Prospector Metals, which has moved into the fund's top ten holdings.Looking ahead, management is watching for early drill results from Prospector Metals in early September as a key near-term catalyst. The fund is also positioning for a seasonal pickup in news flow and financing activity through the autumn, consistent with its historical pattern of using the July-August window for accumulation ahead of stronger market conditions in the fall.The Strait of Hormuz situation remains the dominant macro driver, though management notes the market appears to be growing less sensitive to individual headlines as investors conclude the current level of aggression is unsustainable for all parties involved.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Christina Hello, everyone, I'm Christina Darnell, the managing editor of MinistryWatch. Welcome to the MinistryWatch podcast. In today's extra episode, I talk with Warren Smith about some news items that are slightly (even significantly) outside of our normal charity and philanthropy “beat.” So, Warren, what's up first?  Warren William Bennett famously said, “The plural of anecdotes is not data.” Journalists who write about religion often forget that reality. Christina The latest example came from Carson Daly of the Today Show. He wants us to believe that young people are packing Catholic Churches, and they are leading a Catholic resurgence in this country. But you're not buying it. Warren I'm not. The data tell a different story. I turned to the 2023–24 Pew Research Center Religious Landscape Study, based on nearly 37,000 randomly selected American adults, for a reality check. Among its findings: About 19 percent of U.S. adults identify as Catholic, unchanged since 2014 — but well below historical levels. Even more telling: 43 percent of Americans raised Catholic no longer identify as Catholic. Only 1.5 percent of American adults have become Catholic after being raised in another religion or with no religion. Catholics have experienced the largest net losses of any major Christian tradition through religious switching. Christina What about young people? That seemed to be the focus of the Carson Daly piece. Warren It was, but even among young people, the data don't support that conclusion. Among Americans ages 18–24, 12 percent have left Catholicism, while only 1 percent have converted into it. Pew concluded there is “no clear evidence” of a nationwide religious revival among young adults. Christina Why has this revival narrative been so persistent. We've been seeing it in the Protestant church as well. Warren Journalists want to find unusual stories. The slow secularization of religion over the past 50 years is not unusual. It's been told, and journalists are looking for a new story. As the old saying, “Dog bites man” is not a story. “Man bites dog” is a story. As for the Catholic resurgence story? Well, to torture the metaphor: “That dog won't hunt.” Carson Daly might be able to find a parish whose young adult Mass grows from 50 to 400 people, but that does not make up for the thousands of parishes experiencing gradual (and sometimes significant) decline. Christina Years ago, David Letterman had a routine that he called “Stupid Pet Tricks.” The first story we did, plus the next one, might qualify this episode of the podcast for its own “Stupid Media Tricks” segment. Warren You're right. This week saw another significant media story that caused me to wonder. In this case, veteran National Public Radio Supreme Court reporter Nina Totenberg wrote a story that Justice Samuel Alito had retired. Christina And, to be clear, Justice Alito has not retired. Warren That's right. But the story that he had retired made it through NPR's editing process and onto the website before someone discovered the mistake. And, of course, if it makes it to one website, the algorithms soon have it everywhere. Christina About an hour after publication, NPR retracted the story, issued a correction, and apologized. But the damage had been done. Warren To be fair, the damage was not severe – except, perhaps, to the credibility of NPR. But it does provide a lesson in how modern media work. Charlie Warzel, writing for The Atlantic, does a fascinating post-mortem on the episode, saying the error highlights several habits of modern journalism that are pathological. Among them: “That a breakneck news cycle is forcing even the best reporters and editors to move too fast, that modern beat reporting itself has become too consumed with being first to report stories.” Warzel's story is a smart look at how the journalistic sausage is made. I recommend it. You can find a link in today's show notes. Christina Our next story is also a media story, of sorts. Warren I had not thought of it that way, but I think you're right. Our friend Joseph Slife forwarded me a story that Michigan's Cornerstone University was offering a degree that could be completed “100%” on a smartphone. Christina Warren, did you check the date on that story. Are you sure it's not an April Fools Day prank? Warren I did check, because that was my first thought. Alas, it is not. According to The College Fix, “Cornerstone University, located in Grand Rapids, is offering an associate degree and bachelor's degree in strategic business management along with a master's in organizational leadership through its new program. Students pay a fixed rate of $2,400 per four-month term or $3,750 for graduate level work. The intended audience is working adults.” Christina That's pretty cheap, and – as a working adult – I couldn't imagine trying to get to a nearby college a couple of nights a week for classes. Warren I get that. 100  percent. I am not a Luddite. I use my iPhone for a lot of things – including learning. YouTube videos have helped me learn new licks on the guitar, have helped me repair my toilet, and have helped me gain new insights into the human condition. Christina But learning via iPhone is a different experience than face-to-face, in classroom learning. Warren That's exactly right. Especially from a wise and well-qualified teacher, in a community with other learners who are grappling with the same ideas — both in class, but also around the dinner table in the dining hall. Christina So what you're saying is that virtual learning is not worthless. It is just different. Warren I do not oppose colleges offering programs virtually, but to offer accredited degrees that carry all the prestige and credentialing power of an in-person degree…well…that is just bearing false witness. Christina Let's conclude today with news that the Texas State Board of Education passed a new required reading list that includes Bible passages. Warren On Friday, June 26, the Republican-controlled board voted 9-5-1 to approve a first-of-its-kind list that will affect more than 5 million public school students. Required readings for younger students include illustrated Old Testament stories such as Noah's Ark and David and Goliath. By upper elementary school, students read New Testament passages about Jesus' teachings and parables. Middle school and high school lessons pair scriptural themes with classic literature. Christina Most Christian groups are praising this decision. But you say…not so fast. Warren I will have to say that net-net I am glad they are reading the Bible in the classroom. You simply cannot understand most of Western literature – from Dante to Shakespeare to Faulkner to Eliot – without some biblical literacy. And I know that there are a lot of great public school teachers who will handle these texts with care and respect. Christina I sense a big fat…however…coming on. Warren Ha. So I'll say it.  However… I do wonder what will happen when you put scripture into the hands of militantly secularized teachers, and you give them a platform to air their grievances. They may be forced to read the bible, but what if the teacher spends the rest of the class presenting arguments for its unreliability? Christina So are you opposed to reading the Bible in classrooms? Warren Absolutely not. I'm very much in favor of it, but I do wonder how it's going to be taught. I would recommend that parents in Texas remain vigilant. Time will tell whether this was a positive innovation for the classroom, or one full of unintended consequences. Until then, though, I know that “God's word will not return void.” So, I trust that the positive impact of scripture reading will be greater than any efforts to undermine it.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, we explore a simple but powerful idea: when we resist uncomfortable feelings, they tend to grow stronger, not weaker.This pattern shows up everywhere: for example anxiety on a plane, dental fear, body image, ageing, and cravings.Key threads we unpack:Resistance breeds shame. When we don't admit we're struggling — because we feel we shouldn't be — that gap between who we are and who we think we should be becomes a breeding ground for shame.Naming a fear diffuses it. How advocating for ourselves and how being seen rather than being dismissed or "fixed" can make all the difference.Eating disorder recovery parallels. How treating a difficult part of yourself as an enemy that needs defeating can backfire — versus understanding it as a protective part trying to help.Body image and the "messy middle." You don't have to love your body to accept it. Holding two truths at once — "I feel uncomfortable with this" and "I'm not going back to the diet train" — is 'healthier' than forced positivity.Cravings work the same way. Resisting a food craving by having a substitute often just prolongs the craving — sometimes having the thing you actually want is the kinder, more effective option.Permission to not be the "fun, positive" person all the time. Whether it's dreading a hot holiday, not wanting a birthday party, or feeling slower on a run than you were years ago — we both land on the idea that accepting discomfort (rather than fighting it or forcing yourself into positivity) is what actually creates ease.The takeaway: acceptance doesn't mean loving everything about how you feel or look — it means making room for the truth of where you are, without judgment, so the feeling doesn't have to fight so hard to be heard.We'd love to hear your thoughts on this - is there something you resist, that just doesn't get easier or go away? Is there something in your life where acceptance would bring about ease and peace? Support the showPlease reach out if you would like some support with your relationship to food OR movement.

For the second week in a row, I'm reusing the same production file that was used on WTJU. If I was awake and alert, it would maybe take 15 minutes to record new audio. However, this June 27 feels like the kind of day where such a direct task would take about two hours. I'm ready to get ready for the next set of stories.If you are a new reader, I got my professional start at WVTF Public Radio in Roanoke, Virginia, as an intern. I was in my final year at Virginia Tech and I wanted to keep going with journalism. At some point not too long after, I made a deliberate choice to focus at the local level. Every edition of this newsletter was a podcast for the first 650 editions or so. That changes in the spring of 2024 when I agreed to do a version of the podcast for WTJU.

Some nonsensical thoughts at the end of CCE-1079A Technically this one is W26-23 and not CCE-1079A because I did not produce a separate version. That's twice in a row. I would prefer to do an original version as well, but I must admit I appreciate the illusion of a break. I assure any reader who made it to this part that I do not spend all of my hours working on this newsletter. I take a lot of breaks throughout the day, though almost none of that time is spent doing yardwork. Now that my eldest cat is no longer with us, the house is slowly being reclaimed from all of the spots damaged by incontinence.On this Saturday, what will I do? I do not know the answer though I am going to try to get the March 2026 property transactions out of the way. I'm very slow on those now and as a result I can't put them behind a paywall. Or at least, it wouldn't feel right.I do work seven days a week because I enjoy the research that goes into this newsletter. I see stories everywhere and the challenge is continuing to create an engine that allows me to produce as many as possible. It is my hope to find others willing to put in the work. There are almost two weeks until the 6 year anniversary of the newsletter. I am soul-searching a bit at the moment to determine the future. Should I try to see more of the world while I am still relatively young? What would it be like to live somewhere else? Yet, even thinking that thought triggers alarm as I really do want to continue trying to describe the minutiae of this community as it stumbles its way into the future. I'm so looking forward to hitting send and allowing myself to go into free association for the rest of the day. One of the ways I sharpen my research skills when they'll dulled by morning fog is to go to cvillepedia and make some edits at random. I do not own the website but I have been associated with it since its public unveiling in 2009. The Jefferson Madison Regional Library is now the owner, but they do not program it. Who will program it in the future?Who will tell the stories of our community?I don't have a way to look into the future except for continuing to do my part to document what I can. I hope to inspire others to do so and hopeful that in the future I'll be better able to articulate what it is I'm doing. This is a public episode.

The ongoing conflict in the Middle East continues to drive the economic narrative, keeping energy costs painfully high for consumers and complicating the outlook for inflation and interest rates heading into peak leasing season.For renters, the impact at the pump has been significant. The national gas average has surged past $4.50/gal according to AAA, up more than a dollar over the past two months, and that kind of sustained increase acts as a quiet drain on the discretionary budgets renters depend on to absorb higher monthly housing costs. Until energy prices meaningfully retreat, operators should expect that pressure to weigh on rent growth even as occupancy holds relatively steady.

Williams explains Contrast's runtime instrumentation approach, recounts OWASP's early days, the creation of WebGoat and the OWASP Top 10, and notes that many common vulnerabilities persist despite years of maturity models. They debate open source versus commercial security scrutiny, the likely high cost and scalability limits of advanced AI vulnerability discovery, and why finding more bugs matters only if remediation improves too. Williams argues for AI-powered "software factories" with feedback loops, assurance evidence, and runtime monitoring, and flags the EU Product Liability Directive treating software as a product with no-fault liability for security defects, including those from embedded open source. 00:00 AppSec Stuck in Ruts 00:42 Show Intro and Sponsor 01:40 What Contrast Security Does 02:35 OWASP Origins and WebGoat 04:33 Why the Top 10 Persists 06:28 Mythos Model Overview 08:05 Open Source Scrutiny Myth 11:31 Cost and Adoption Barriers 15:04 Finding vs Fixing Bugs 15:55 AI Code Quality Reality 17:46 AI Powered Software Factory 23:11 Building with AI in Practice 25:18 AppSec Metrics and New Approaches 26:42 Staying Optimistic as a CISO 28:00 EU Product Liability Shift 32:13 Bug Bounties in an AI World 34:06 Wrap Up and Outro

Video: https://youtu.be/dUfl7hoxTQIThis episode breaks down why change feels so hard and why we often quit, avoid, or fall back into the same habits even when we know better. Building on the internal calculator framework, it shows how the brain is constantly weighing reward, cost, uncertainty, and control to decide whether to persist or disengage. Anxiety isn't just emotional—it's a signal that cost and uncertainty are rising, pushing the system toward avoidance. You'll see how dopamine, norepinephrine, and deeper biological processes shape effort, quitting, and habit formation, and why your brain defaults to what is familiar and energy-efficient. Most importantly, this episode gives you a new lens to understand your own behavior—and how to interrupt the cycle when your brain is pushing you to quit.White Board Series: Autism & Motivation: The Brain's Internal Calculators https://youtu.be/uKa3wzpRoxQ White Board Series: Autism & Motivation: Why the Brain Repeats, Avoids, Persists, or Quits https://youtu.be/5lsQIJUPgQ4 White Board Series: Why the Brain Hates Change & Chooses Habits https://youtu.be/nTs2m8SGqXcDaylight Computer Company, use "autism" for $50 off at https://buy.daylightcomputer.com/autism and Daylight Kids (!!!) https://kids.daylightcomputer.com/autism ‪Chroma Light Devices, use "autism" for 10% discount at https://getchroma.co/?ref=autism0:06 Internal calculator recap: prediction, state, value, control; Prediction error 2:53 vmPFC as the “scoreboard” (value integration system) 4:27 Value = reward − cost; the equation of behavior 5:27 “Metabolic bank accountant"6:05 Anxiety, dopamine & norepinephrine7:03 Core question: persist vs quit 8:59 Applying the model to real life 10:00 Effort vs outcome; when persistence continues 11:00 When cost rises; slowing down & quitting signals begin 12:36 “running light” vs “running heavy” 15:59 Practical tools: vision control & breathing 17:03 Quitting is mental: astrocytes & “futility signals” 18:04 Overriding the system: pushing past false limits 19:06 How vision & breath “hack” the internal calculator 19:57 Research link: persistence vs quitting (zebrafish model) 20:58 Core message: beliefs, value & behavior control your life 21:26 Behavior pattern loop: try- fail- quit- repeat 21:52 Key takeaway: shorten the gap between quitting & re-engaging 22:20 Final truth: you quit before your body actually fails X: https://x.com/rps47586 YT: https://www.youtube.com/@FromTheSpectrum email: info.fromthespectrum@gmail.com

If your week feels full but not fitting, you can learn more at mikevardy.com/yourclockwiseweek.Procrastination is often framed as avoidance of what we don't want to do. But in this conversation, it becomes clear that it shows up just as often in the things we do want to do—the work that matters most.That's what made this discussion with Jon Acuff so compelling. Jon's latest book, Procrastination Proof, doesn't treat procrastination as a flaw to fix but as a pattern to understand—and ultimately, to work with rather than against.Six Discussion PointsProcrastination isn't a laziness issue—it's a pattern driven by time, task, fear, history, and ego Permission can unlock progress more effectively than pressure or disciplineSmaller actions reduce friction and make consistency sustainable rather than forcedReview is the most overlooked multiplier—it reveals truth, direction, and better decisionsPlanning is where optimism meets realism—and most people get stuck between the twoAlignment between “night you” and “morning you” turns intention into action without resistanceThree Connection PointsGet Procrastination ProofJon's previous appearance on APCJoin the community to gain access to The Procrastination Course (and more)What stood out most in this conversation is that procrastination isn't something you defeat once—it's something you learn to navigate. When you shift from forcing action to understanding patterns, the work changes. And more importantly, your relationship with the work changes. That's where real progress begins.If this episode resonated, I'm exploring ideas like these more deeply in my upcoming book, Productiveness.
