It's no secret that substance abuse among lawyers is more common than we admit. Scott Spradley spent nearly four decades grappling with alcohol addiction, a struggle that cost him dearly, including the end of his marriage. In this episode of Great Practice, Great Life, Scott shares his journey from denial to self-awareness and finally embracing change after realizing that moderation was not the answer. His story is a personal triumph and a beacon of hope for many in the legal profession who face similar challenges. We explore how societal expectations can often camouflage addiction and the critical need to develop healthier coping strategies. Scott recounts the pivotal moments that led to his recovery, including an honest confrontation with an addiction therapist and the decision to enter an inpatient treatment facility. Scott opens up about the difficult but necessary transition to sobriety, emphasizing the resilience and determination required to maintain it. His candid insights into the first year of recovery, supported by daily AA meetings and new passions like photography, provide practical guidance for anyone looking to reclaim their life from the grips of addiction. Scott's journey highlights the importance of personal resolve, the power of community, and unexpected support. The episode underscores a touching gesture from a professional rival, Peter Hill, who managed Scott's practice during his rehab without expecting anything in return. This act of compassion exemplifies the camaraderie and support within the legal community, proving that empathy can foster profound change even in competitive fields. Scott's dedication to helping others find their path to self-awareness and sobriety exemplifies the enduring impact of kindness and community support.

Peter Hill has been working as a resource manager with a specialty in stream restoration for over two decades, first for Washington DC and then as a consultant for Great Lakes Watershed Opportunities. Currently, he is Senior Policy Advisor for Green Infrastructure at the Environmental Policy Innovation Center in Milwaukee, WI. His many years of experience in managing major, multi-agency stream and river restoration projects which necessarily needed to include building partnerships to support such multi-faceted ecological restoration efforts. Many of these resource management projects have been located in underserved areas. With River Profiles: The People Restoring Our Waterways (Columbia UP, 2024), Pete reaches out to both the layperson, as well as the practicing professional. His goal is to build a more comprehensive understanding regarding restoration best practices that can be tapped to meet a community's desire for a healthy and sustainable riparian environment. But Pete's perspective and professional practice goes beyond just understanding different restoration approaches. He is also quite cognizant about the need to build community understanding and support for their local rivers and streams, both in rural and urban settings. To this latter point, he does feel strongly that stream and river restoration can be tied directly to a community's environmental justice efforts. Michael Simpson has been actively working, researching and teaching in the watershed management and wetlands fields for 40 years. He is a licensed wetlands scientist where he has conducted numerous delineations, wetland assessments, employing a variety of assessment approaches and data collection procedures, as well as designing wetlands for treatment of non-point source run-off, agricultural liquid wastes and municipal generated waste water. Currently, his primary research for both US EPA and NOAA has focused upon impact to natural systems and built infrastructure in riparian corridors and estuaries, from changes in land-use on the watershed combined with increases in storm intensity and frequency due to projected climate change.

Today I talked to Peter Hill about his new book Prophet of Reason: Science, Religion and the Origins of the Modern Middle East (Oneworld Academic, 2024). In 1813, high in the Lebanese mountains, a thirteen-year-old boy watches a solar eclipse. Will it foretell a war, a plague, the death of a prince? Mikha'il Mishaqa's lifelong search for truth starts here. Soon he's reading Newtonian science and the radical ideas of Voltaire and Volney: he loses his religion, turning away from the Catholic Church. Thirty years later, as civil war rages in Syria, he finds a new faith – Evangelical Protestantism. His obstinate polemics scandalise his community. Then, in 1860, Mishaqa barely escapes death in the most notorious event in Damascus: a massacre of several thousand Christians. We are presented with a paradox: rational secularism and violent religious sectarianism grew up together. By tracing Mishaqa's life through this tumultuous era, when empires jostled for control, Peter Hill answers the question: What did people in the Middle East actually believe? It's a world where one man could be a Jew, an Orthodox Christian and a Sunni Muslim in turn, and a German missionary might walk naked in the streets of Valletta. Peter Hill is a historian of the modern Middle East, specialising in the Arab world in the long nineteenth century. His research focusses on political thought and practice, the politics of religion, and translation and intercultural exchanges. He also has a strong interest in comparative and global history. Before joining Northumbria University in 2019, Peter was Junior Research Fellow at Christ Church, University of Oxford. He has taught and designed modules in the history of the Middle East and global history, and the history of capitalism. In 2023 he was the winner of a Philip Leverhulme Prize in History. Peter's first book, Utopia and Civilisation in the Arab Nahda, was published by Cambridge University Press in 2020. He has published several articles on translation, political thought and popular politics in the Middle East, in journals such as Past & Present, the Journal of Arabic Literature, and Journal of Global History.

Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a combination of hyperactivity, impulsiveness and inattention which significantly impacts those living with the condition. The medical approach to the ADHD pattern of behaviour has been very successful in childhood but the results have been somewhat less impressive in adulthood. This has led to a reappraisal of both causes and treatment in both age groups.Should the conventional, neurotypical world accommodate people with ADHD as different, rather than disabled?This lecture was recorded by Peter Hill on 11th March 2024 at Barnard's Inn Hall, LondonThe transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website:https://www.gresham.ac.uk/watch-now/adhdGresham College has offered free public lectures for over 400 years, thanks to the generosity of our supporters.

A lot of men who are facing the prospect of prostate removal due to cancer have no idea that incontinence is an almost inevitable result of the procedure. For most men, leaking resolves itself in a few months to a year, but for some men, it can persist. Sexual dysfunction is another common side effect that many men need to navigate post-surgery. Today we're talking with Dr. Peter Hill, a chiropractor in Weston, Massachusetts, who's experienced this firsthand. He shares his story of recovery from prostate cancer surgery and how he learned to manage the leaking, sexual issues and emotional challenges that he faced. It's a remarkably open, honest and enlightening discuss that all men should listen to. For more information about Confitex reusable incontinence underwear, click here.

The centre of government does not function as well as it needs to. Successive prime ministers have complained of ‘rubber levers' and reflected that the nature of the government machine can make it difficult to deliver their priorities. The last three premierships have not been helped, and sometimes have been hindered, by the failings of No.10, the Cabinet Office and Treasury. The civil service is not working as well as it should and Brexit and Covid in particular exposed deep problems with the whole of the government machine. But what exactly are these problems? Why have they not been solved? And what could be done to radically improve how the centre works? To launch a major new programme of work, we brought together an expert panel to discuss the current state of the centre and suggest how it could be reformed and improved. Our panellists were: Lord Robin Butler, Cabinet Secretary 1988-98 Baroness Simone Finn, Downing Street deputy chief of staff 2021–22 Peter Hill, former principal private secretary to the prime minister (2017-19) and CEO of COP 26 The event was chaired by Dr Hannah White, Director of the Institute for Government and Sir Anthony Seldon, author, political commentator and historian.

After last month's announcement that the Atlanta Braves will soon become their own publicly traded company, team officials were quick to say little will change, baseball-wise. “From our perspective, from a Braves' team perspective, it's business as usual,” President and CEO Derek Schiller told investors at a November 17 meeting. Braves Chairman Terry McGuirk echoed that sentiment in a letter to workers for the Braves and the Battery Atlanta. But business-wise, the Braves' financial separation from owner Liberty Media could have significant implications down the road. The Braves are currently traded as a “tracking stock” — a subset of Liberty Media that's still tied to the firm's overall performance, but represents one of its subsidiaries. Pending approval by shareholders and Major League Baseball, the Braves will become a fully separate entity within the next six to eight months, executives have said. Fans and financiers alike will then be able to purchase a stake in the team. Liberty CEO Greg Maffei has said repeatedly the impetus for the spinoff comes from a desire to showcase the Braves' value independent of Liberty as a whole. The stock will represent not only the team and its assets, but the Battery Atlanta and the Braves Development Company, the latter of which manages the team's real estate holdings. The announcement itself came two weeks after Breach Inlet Capital, a South Carolina-based investment firm that counts itself among the Braves' top 25 shareholders, called for a spinoff of the stock. In an open letter to Liberty's board, the firm argued the Braves' tracking stock was trading at about 60% less than its true value. The letter pointed to the Braves' continued success, and argued the team is relatively undervalued compared to other major sports franchises. Breach Inlet Capital founder Chris Colvin speculated the Braves' undervaluation was due to Liberty's “confusing and convoluted structure,” referring to Liberty's ownership of Formula 1 racing, Sirius XM, and other media empires. In other words, the Braves' true value isn't apparent because it's tied up in Liberty's many and varied financial holdings. Mount Paran Christian School announced that Peter Hill is the new Head of Middle School, beginning in the 2023-2024 academic year. Hill comes to MPCS from Catholic Memorial School in Boston, Massachusetts, where he is a member of the Academic Leadership Team, a history teacher and varsity head soccer coach. With vast independent school experience, he has taught a variety of history courses, including AP Comparative Politics, where his students over the years have earned an astounding 94% pass rate. He has served as the International Student Coordinator, developed and implemented the faculty peer mentoring program, and advised and mentored faculty to better enable bilingual students using translanguaging pedagogy. Prior to Hill's time at Catholic Memorial, he taught at Marianapolis Preparatory School in Connecticut and St. Paul's School in New Hampshire. He holds a bachelor's degree in history from Dartmouth College and a master's degree in curriculum and instruction from Boston College. For Kim McCoy, head of the Cobb District Attorney's victim and witness office, the long road toward the county getting its own family advocacy center began 25 years ago. Way back in 1997, she and Jason Saliba, now Deputy Chief Assistant District Attorney, toured San Diego's own center for victims and thought, “We've got to have this in Cobb County.” The center isn't quite open for business — District Attorney Flynn Broady said he expects it to open in March or April of 2023. But when it does, the location on Fairground Street will be a hub for victims and survivors of abuse to get help and resources under a single roof. The center was partially funded with a $400,000 grant from the state, and will be the first of its kind to open in Georgia. When family advocacy centers are implemented in communities, there's a corresponding reduction in domestic violence homicides, a reduction in childhood trauma, and with that, better outcomes for families. As part of that mission, the DA's office is partnering with several of Cobb's well-established nonprofits such as LiveSAFE Resources, the Center for Family Resources, and SafePath Children's Advocacy Center. Along with staff from the county and its public safety and prosecutorial partners, those nonprofits and community groups will have representatives on-site as well. Broady told the MDJ his office is working on setting up a 501(c)(3) nonprofit so that community members and businesses can support the center going forward. Walton's Jeremy Hecklinski wasted little time turning a breakout junior season into finding a place to play his college football. The 6-foot-1, 175-pound quarterback committed to Wake Forest on Wednesday, making his announcement on social media. Hecklinski is coming off a season in which he threw 3,520 yards, 37 touchdowns and 12 interceptions, while also running for five scores. Hecklinski played his best in arguably the biggest game of the season, in which he led Walton to an upset of Buford in the second round of the Class AAAAAAA state playoffs. In that game, he threw for 315 yards and two touchdowns in beating the Wolves — a consensus top-10 team nationally — on their home field. Hecklinski chose Wake Forest over offers from Central Florida, Georgia Southern and Eastern Kentucky. His recruiting was just starting to heat up, as it had been reported that Georgia, Georgia Tech, Cincinnati, Duke and Florida State had become interested. Hecklinski was expected to announce his commitment next spring, but he told SI.com that everything just felt right this week. The City Council Wednesday night unanimously approved allocating the the majority of the city's remaining federal COVID-19 relief funds for a pair of new parks. Marietta received roughly $11 million from the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), and had already allocated portions of it for a new public safety training center, replacing a water tower, affordable housing, wellness initiatives for public safety employees, repairs to a fire station and the Cobb Veterans Memorial. The city has broad discretion over the use of the ARPA funds. Wednesday's vote puts $1 million of the remaining funds toward capping a 57-acre landfill on Merritt Road, behind Lockheed Elementary, to build a new city park. Another $2 million will be offered to Cobb County for 20 acres of park land at Anderson and Burnt Hickory roads, west of Kennesaw Mountain. In October, Marietta Mayor Steve “Thunder” Tumlin recommended the city consider purchasing the land off Burnt Hickory Road from the county, which includes Schmidt Pond, a catch-and-release fishing site. Marietta would then turn the land into a city park. At the council's committee meetings on November 29, Tumlin again brought up the prospect that a future attempt to incorporate a city of Lost Mountain in west Cobb could mean Cobb would be forced to sell the Anderson Road land at a far cheaper price. Under state law, county parkland can be purchased by new cities at $100 per acre. The proposal for a city of Lost Mountain was rejected by voters in May, along with proposals for cities of East Cobb and Vinings. Tumlin said in November the county could be motivated to sell the land to Marietta “because cityhood might raise its beautiful head again.” Should the county reject Marietta's offer, the $2 million would return to the city's COVID relief fund. It may have been a cloudy day, but that didn't dampen the spirits at the 9th Annual Thanksgiving Classic hosted by the Marietta Country Club. After a Chick-fil-A breakfast, the golfers were cheered on with pompoms and great enthusiasm from the YELLS ( which stands for Youth Empowerment thru Learning, Leading and Serving) Inc. kids at the shotgun start. The day-long event saw a record number of 144 golfers participating. Each year the tournament committee selects a recipient from the Cobb County area. To be eligible, the non-profit must benefit and impact children's lives. This year the selected beneficiary was YELLS. Previous recipients include such worthy organizations as the Center for Children and Young Adults, Marietta Police Athletic League, KSU CARE, Marietta Student Life Center, Devereux Center, Wellstar Cancer Center and Hospice Angel Fund. Over the past, nine years the event raised over $850,000. The goal for next year is to surpass $1 million in donations. With the generosity of the players and sponsors, the Marietta Country Club was able to make a huge impact on YELLS Inc. with the presentation of a $150,000 check. YELLS empowers youth to rise as active, healthy and productive servant-leaders within their communities. YELLS is a 501(c)3 non-profit youth development organization based in the Franklin Gateway community of Marietta. #CobbCounty #Georgia #LocalNews - - - - - The Marietta Daily Journal Podcast is local news for Marietta, Kennesaw, Smyrna, and all of Cobb County.

I am thrilled to introduce many of you to a wonderful scholar and new friend. Pete and I met this past summer in SoCal at the TheoPsych seminar put on by my friends in the STAR office at Fuller Seminary. (STAR=Science, Theology and Religion). Whenever someone comes on the podcast from a more conservative part of the church I am always honored, because I get lots of rejection emails - even from people who listen! Any way, most of our conversation is about his work as a psychological scientist where he is respected apart from a particular religious identity. I hope you enjoy the conversation and if you run into Pete tell him thank you for joining. Peter C. Hill, Ph.D., is Professor of Psychology at Rosemead School of Psychology at Biola University. Before coming to Rosemead in 2002, he served for 17 years as Professor of Psychology at Grove City College in Pennsylvania. In 2006 he was honored with a faculty appointment at the University of Cambridge as a Visiting Research Fellow at the Center for Advanced Religious and Theological Studies of the Faculty of Divinity. Hill is an active researcher in social psychology and the psychology of religion where he has authored approximately 100 articles in peer-reviewed journals and book chapters. In the conversation we discuss: Why the harder the science the greater % of scientists who believe in God? What are the psychological sciences? How is it an empirical science? The origin story of psychology and the current move towards positive psychology How do you define religion? The search for the sacred? Virtue and character formation What do psychologist think of theologians? Are humans naturally religious? How humans 'think' and make judgements What's going on when we argue and act a fool about religion and politics? Where polarization comes from the nature of religious trauma and paths to healing religious identity in adolescence advice on passing on the beautiful elements of your faith This Episode is Sponsored By: THE GHOST RANCH Renowned for its natural beauty spanning 21,000 acres, Ghost Ranch is located in the high desert of northern New Mexico, 70 miles north of Santa Fe.
