De laatste tijd merkte Jonas steeds vaker op dat het christendom terug populairder wordt. De afgelopen decennia trokken jonge spirituele zoekers vooral richting het Oosten maar het tij lijkt te keren. Het christendom is niet langer iets wat je afzweert. Het wordt terug iets waar je je in verdiept.Zo valt het op dat een grote hoeveelheid influencers zich de afgelopen drie jaar plots tot het christendom (be)keerden en daar honderduit over praten in hun YouTube video's en podcasts. Ayan Hirsi Ali, Candace Owens, Russell Brand, George Sanko, Elizabeth Oldfield, Paul Kingsnorth,… het zijn maar enkele namen van figuren met een groot gevolg die hun liefde voor Jezus en de Bijbel publiekelijk uit de doeken doen.Over dit alles ging Jonas dan ook verder in gesprek met theoloog en Bijbelkenner Alain Verheij. In de vorige aflevering focusten ze specifiek op Jordan Peterson. Ze bespraken wat Petersons invloed is op het publieke debat en ze analyseerden zijn jongste boek waarin hij een poging onderneemt om zijn achterban van een bijbeluitleg te voorzien. Maar Peterson is dus zeker niet de enige YouTube goeroe die steeds meer aandacht heeft voor zo'n thema's. Interessant genoeg tref je het zelfs aan onder atheïsten. Een YouTuber als Alex O'Connor is daarvan een goed voorbeeld. O'Connor is een vertegenwoordiger van hedendaags populair atheïsme, maar in tegenstelling tot de vorige generatie (zoals Dawkins, Hitchens, Harris, Dennet), doet hij diepgravende interviews met theologen en exegeten in een poging om een beter begrip te krijgen van het christendom en de Bijbel. Daarenboven is het niet louter een internetfenomeen. Ook offline herleeft de interesse in het christendom. Aan de eettafel tijdens familiefeesten hoorde Jonas enkele jongere neven vertellen over de christelijke influencers die ze volgen. En in gesprekken met vrienden kwamen de laatste maanden erg vaak verhalen aan bod over kennissen die zich terug openstellen voor de christelijke traditie.Genoeg redenen dus om even stil te staan bij de vraag of er op dit moment werkelijk sprake is van een revival van het christendom. En als dat inderdaad zo is, welke maatschappelijke dynamieken zorgen daar dan voor? Hoe moeten we ons tot die dynamieken verhouden? Kunnen we voorkomen dat de Bijbel louter op sloganeske manieren geïnterpreteerd wordt? En zijn het vooral rechtse stemmen die opgang maken of is er ook sprake van heropleving van het christendom aan de linkerkant?-------Voor meer over het werk van Alain, kan je terecht op zijn website: alainverheij.nl-------'Groetjes uit Shambhala' is een productie van Volzin.
Join The Bad Girl, The Playa, and our new co-host Tiffany Star, as we complete the POS Peterson Trilogy and examine the controversial case of renowned author Michael Peterson. Michael Iver Peterson (born October 23, 1943) is an American novelist who was convicted in 2003 of murdering his second wife, Kathleen Peterson, on December 9, 2001. After eight years, Peterson was granted a new trial after the judge ruled a critical prosecution witness gave misleading testimony. In 2017, Peterson submitted an Alford plea to the reduced charge of manslaughter. He was sentenced to time already served and freed. Elizabeth Ratliff, a friend of the Petersons, who died in Germany in 1985, had also been found dead at the foot of her staircase with injuries to the head. Her death had been investigated by both the German police and U.S. military police. An autopsy at the time of her death concluded Ratliff died from an intra-cerebral hemorrhage secondary to the blood coagulation disorder Von Willebrand's disease, based on blood in her cerebrospinal fluid and reports that she had been suffering severe, persistent headaches in the weeks leading up to her death. The coroner determined that the hemorrhage resulted in immediate death, followed by Ratliff falling down the stairs after collapsing. The Petersons had dinner with Ratliff and her daughters, and Peterson had stayed and helped Ratliff put the children to bed before going home. The children's nanny, Barbara, discovered the body when she arrived the next morning. Peterson was the last known person to see her alive. Did Peterson get off too easy? T.I.F.O.!

InnledningDybdepsykologi, et felt innen psykologien som ble grunnlagt på begynnelsen av 1900-tallet av blant andre Sigmund Freud og Carl Gustav Jung, fokuserer på å utforske det ubevisste sinnet for å forstå menneskets atferd og psykiske lidelser. Dybdepsykologien undersøker hvordan ubevisste prosesser påvirker bevisste tanker, følelser og atferd, og den benytter seg av teknikker som drømmetydning, frie assosiasjoner, og fantasier for å avdekke det ubevisste innholdet. Jeg skal nok en gang vende meg til menneskets ubevisste sjelsliv forstått via arketyper og mytologiske fortellinger. Jeg skal også inkludere en nesten mytisk person i dagnes refleksjonsrunde, nemlig den kontroversielle psykologen Jordan B. Peterson.Jordan Peterson, en kanadisk klinisk psykolog og professor, har ikke direkte tilknytning til grunnleggerne av dybdepsykologien, men hans arbeid viser tydelig innflytelse fra denne tradisjonen, spesielt fra Carl Jung. Petersons bok, "12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos", presenterer en rekke livsprinsipper som kombinerer psykologiske, filosofiske, og antropologiske innsikter for å hjelpe individer å navigere i livets kompleksitet. Jeg håper du blir med på reisen og kanskje ser din egen vei i ett litt klarere lys i løpet av den neste timen. Velkommen skal du være!AvslutningPetersons tilnærming i "12 Rules for Life" reflekterer dybdepsykologiens fokus på individets indre liv og viktigheten av å konfrontere og integrere det ubevisste. Blant annet trekker han veksler på Jungs konsept om arketyper og skyggen for å forklare hvordan konfrontasjon med våre mørkere sider kan føre til personlig vekst og forståelse.Her er en kort gjennomgang av noen av Petersons regler, sett gjennom linsen til dybdepsykologi: Stå oppreist med skuldrene tilbake - Kan tolkes som et råd om å møte verden med selvtillit og ansvar, anerkjennelse av eget verd, og en vilje til å ta på seg livets byrder, et tema som resonnerer med dybdepsykologiens fokus på individuasjon og personlig utvikling. Behandle deg selv som noen du er ansvarlig for å hjelpe - Reflekterer ideen om selvomsorg og viktigheten av å anerkjenne og møte egne behov og sårbarheter, noe dybdepsykologien ser på som essensielt for å oppnå et balansert og integrert selv. Vær venner med mennesker som vil deg vel - Understreker betydningen av relasjoner og sosialt fellesskap, som også er viktige elementer i dybdepsykologisk terapi, hvor det å utforske og forbedre mellommenneskelige dynamikker kan føre til dypere selvforståelse og helbredelse. Sammenlign deg selv med den du var i går, ikke med noen andre er i dag - Dette rådet handler om personlig vekst og selvforbedring over tid, i tråd med dybdepsykologiens mål om individuasjon, eller prosessen med å bli et helt og unikt individ.Petersons verk, med dets vektlegging av individets indre reise, utforskning av det ubevisste, og anvendelsen av mytologiske og arketyperike fortellinger for å formidle livets læresetninger, resonnerer med dybdepsykologiens grunnleggende prinsipper. Selv om han ikke alltid direkte refererer til dybdepsykologi, er påvirkningen tydelig i hans forsøk på å veilede mennesker gjennom kaoset i det moderne liv ved å tilby et rammeverk forstått gjennom psykologisk og eksistensiell introspeksjon.

Convicted killer Scott Peterson appeared before a San Mateo County judge via Zoom as his legal team, led by the Los Angeles Innocence Project, sought approval for DNA testing on key evidence they argue could lead to a new trial. Peterson, convicted of killing his pregnant wife Laci Peterson and their unborn son Connor in 2002, has consistently maintained his innocence. Paula Mitchell, director of the LA Innocence Project, is urging Judge Elizabeth Hill to authorize the testing of several items, including a blood-stained mattress found in a burned-out van near the Modesto airport. Mitchell emphasized that Modesto police failed to investigate whether the van fire was connected to Laci Peterson's case. Authorities, however, have dismissed any link between the blaze and the murder. The defense also seeks to test evidence recovered near the bodies of Laci and Connor, whose remains surfaced along the Richmond shoreline in 2003, as well as items tied to a burglary across the street from the Petersons' Modesto home. Peterson's legal team insists that all requested evidence is available, well-preserved, and maintains an unbroken chain of custody suitable for DNA testing. “This case has always been about getting to the truth, and DNA testing can provide answers that weren't available during the original trial,” Mitchell stated. Prosecutors oppose the motion, arguing that existing evidence already proved Peterson's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. They point to the jury's 2004 conviction, which resulted in Peterson being sentenced to life in prison without parole. The trial, relocated from Modesto to San Mateo County due to extensive pretrial publicity, included testimony that Peterson took Laci's body aboard his boat and dumped it in San Francisco Bay on Christmas Eve 2002. Peterson, who has attended recent hearings from Mule Creek State Prison via Zoom, maintains that he was fishing in the bay on the day of Laci's disappearance. His defense team asserts that DNA testing could uncover evidence implicating other suspects or provide critical context about items near the crime scene. The case, which gripped national attention from the moment Laci disappeared, continues to polarize public opinion. During the initial investigation, Peterson gave interviews, including a now-famous sit-down with Court TV anchor Ted Rowlands, to plead his innocence. Despite his efforts, mounting evidence led to his arrest and subsequent conviction. Mitchell and the LA Innocence Project remain hopeful that Judge Hill will grant their motion, emphasizing the importance of utilizing modern forensic techniques to ensure justice. “We're asking for the chance to use tools that weren't available two decades ago. This isn't about revisiting old arguments; it's about finding the truth through science,” Mitchell said. The hearing represents a pivotal moment for Peterson, whose life sentence leaves him few remaining avenues for appeal. As the courtroom battle continues, the legacy of the high-profile case remains a stark reminder of its profound impact on the justice system and public consciousness. #ScottPeterson #InnocenceProject #DNATesting #LaciPeterson #TrueCrime #JusticeForLaci #CrimeNews Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Scott Peterson, convicted in 2004 of murdering his pregnant wife Laci Peterson and their unborn son Conner, made a virtual court appearance in his ongoing efforts to overturn his convictions. Peterson joined the San Mateo County Superior Court hearing remotely from Mule Creek State Prison, where he is serving a life sentence without parole. The Los Angeles Innocence Project, which began representing Peterson earlier this year, has filed three motions aimed at exoneration. On Tuesday, the court addressed the first motion: a request to seal proceedings to protect potential witnesses' identities. Judge Anne-Christine Massullo dismissed the motion, clearing the way for future public scrutiny of the case. Peterson's legal team argues that key evidence from the original investigation was either mishandled or overlooked. "There are significant questions about the evidence used to convict Mr. Peterson," said a spokesperson for the Los Angeles Innocence Project. The next motion hearing, scheduled for May, will focus on post-conviction DNA testing of evidence connected to a burned van. The van, located near the Petersons' Modesto home around the time of Laci's disappearance in December 2002, contained a blood-stained mattress. A former fire investigator claims the circumstances surrounding this evidence were not thoroughly investigated. In July, the court will hear the third motion, which seeks post-trial discovery. This includes details about a burglary that occurred across the street from the Peterson home at the time of Laci's disappearance, a missing watch belonging to Laci, and documentation from witness interviews. Peterson's case was transferred to San Mateo County for the original trial due to extensive pre-trial publicity in Stanislaus County. In 2004, Peterson was convicted after the remains of Laci and Conner washed ashore in the San Francisco Bay months after being reported missing. The trial revealed troubling details, including Peterson's affair with Fresno massage therapist Amber Frey. Frey testified that Peterson had told her he was a widower, even as his wife was still missing. The California Supreme Court overturned Peterson's death sentence in 2020, ruling that potential jurors were wrongly dismissed for their views on the death penalty. However, his convictions for murder were upheld. In 2021, Peterson was resentenced to life in prison without parole. A 2022 motion for a new trial, based on allegations of juror misconduct, was denied. As Peterson's legal battle continues, questions about the evidence and investigation remain central to his defense. The upcoming hearings could significantly impact the case's trajectory, as Peterson's team seeks to challenge the narrative that led to his convictions nearly two decades ago. #ScottPeterson #LaciPeterson #TrueCrime #InnocenceProject #LegalBattles #JusticeSystem #CourtUpdate Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Er inspiriert und polarisiert: doch woran glaubt Jordan Peterson eigentlich? Johannes hat sich sein neues Buch „We who wrestle with God“ angesehen und kommt zu einem klaren Fazit: es ist kompliziert.
Franču rakstnieka un publicista Nikolā Ozano (Nicolas Auzanneau) nesen latviski iznākušās grāmatas „Biblihigiense jeb Kādas grāmatas noslēpums” galvenā varone ir 1941. gadā izdotā „Latviski – franciska vārdnīca”, kas bijis viņa darba rīks, tulkojot Ēriku Ādamsonu, Rūdolfu Blaumani, arī Jāni Joņevu un Osvaldu Zebri. Rakstnieks uzņemas izmeklēt vārdnīcas tapšanas un izdošanas apstākļus. Kas tajā laikā notika Latvijā? Kad deva atļauju iespiešanai? Kas bija vārdnīcas autori? Uzziņu literatūra pārtop aizraujošā detektīvā. Nikolā Ozano ir dzimis un audzis Francijā, taču lieliski runā latviski, nereti saukts par latviešu literatūras vēstnieku franču valodā lasošajiem. “Biblihigianse jeb kādas grāmatas stāsts” ir Ozano debija rakstniecībā, Francijā šī grāmata iznāca 2015. gadā, taču tās vēstījums skar mūsu zemi un Latvijas vēsturi. Tagad šo stāstu var izlasīt arī latviski. Grāmatas atvēršanas svētkos tās ievadu priekšā latviski lasīja grāmatas tulkotājs Jānis Joņevs, savukārt oriģinālvalodā – autors pats. Kas tad ir šī “kāda grāmata”, kuras stāsts lasāms “Biblihigianse” lappusēs? Tātad – šī grāmata ir 1941. gadā iznākusi „Latviski – franciska vārdnīca”, tulkotāja galvenais darba rīks. Un šis ir brīdis, kad grāmata ir teju nolietota, un Nikolā Ozano ir nolēmis uz to paraudzīties citām acīm. Beidzot izlasīt vārdnīcas ievadu, mēģināt uzminēt redaktora vēstījumu, izsecināt kaut ko par vārdnīcas radītāju savstarpējo hierarhiju. Veidojas aizraujošas sižeta līnijas, taču tas lielais vēstījums ir par nesatricināmu un kaismīgu ticību grāmatai kā vērtībai, kas turpinās arī stāstā par “Biblihigiense” latviešu izdevuma tapšanu. Izdevniecības „Aminori” projektu vadītāja Inita Saulīte Zandere stāsta kā veidojušās viņas attiecības ar Ozano tekstu. Burtiski nupat Nikolā Ozano tulkojumā Francijā iznācis arī Jāņa Joņeva romāns “Tīģeris”. Savukārt Jānis Joņevs “Biblihigianse” tulkošanas procesā, grāmatā aizsāktajā ar vārdnīcu saistīto ļaužu likteņu izmeklēšanā, tikpat kaismīgi iesaistīja Latvijas literatūrzinātniekus un valodas entuziastus. Grāmatas atvēršanas svētkos varēja pārliecināties par, visdrīzāk uz iepriekšējām sarunām balstītu saprašanos, kas valda starp abiem autoriem. Taču ir vēl kas vairāk. Nikolā Ozano “Biblihigianse jeb kādas grāmatas stāsts” gadījumā mēs runājam par latviešu literatūrā neparastu romānu, proti, literāru darbu, kas balstīts uz reāliem notikumiem, precīziem faktiem. Taču arī Jāņa Joņeva “Decembris” balstījās 1990. gadu preses publikācijās, grāmata “Pazudis” – sludinājumos par pazudušu mājdzīvnieku meklēšanu. Šāda veida literatūrai latviešu valodā patiešām nav apzīmējuma. “Romāns” šķiet nevietā. Bet tas arī nav “pētījums”. Tas nav īsti arī dokumentāls stāsts, jo autors stāstā mērķtiecīgi ir iejaucies, rindojot faktus sev vēlamā cēloņsakarībā, saliekot emocionālus akcentus. Raidījuma viesi vairās konkrētāk pieskarties grāmatā aprakstītajiem notikumiem, lai lasītājam neatklātu stāsta intrigu. Taču šo un to tomēr drīkstam atklāt. “Tabu vārdnīcas”, kā Nikolā Ozano nodēvē šo 1941. gada izdevumu, redaktors ir pazīstamais valodnieks Ernests Blesse. Trīs gadus pēc vārdnīcas iznākšanas, 1944. gadā, bija viens no tiem, kas parakstīja Latvijas Centrālās padomes memorandu, kurā 188 latviešu inteliģences pārstāvji Latvijas nācijas vārdā deklarēja nepieciešamību atjaunot 1922. gada Satversmē balstītu Latvijas Republikas faktisko suverenitāti. 1944. gadā! Ernests Blesse Latvijā vairs nevar palikt, viņš dodas uz Vāciju, kļūst par profesoru Germersheimas universitātē. Taču Latvijā viņa ieguldījums tiek noklusēts, un tādejādi šīs zināšanas ir zudušas. Kas līdzīgs notiek arī šobrīd, politisku apsvērumu dēļ tiek izravēta krievu valoda un autori, bet līdz ar viņiem atmestas arī ar ideoloģiju nesaistītas zināšanas. Taču šai vārdnīcai ir vēl divas līdzautores: J. Baltgalve un Š. Gollanska. Arī viņas ir nepareizas izcelsmes, taču viņu devums tiek noklusēts un vēlāk ir neatšifrējams vēl kāda iemesla dēļ. Sarunā Nikolā Ozano ik pa brīžam atsaucas uz “Biblihigiansa” “pirmo daļu” – ar to tiek domāts 2015. gada izdevums franču valodā. Reizē ar grāmatas latviešu izdevumu, otrais, papildinātais izdevums iznāk arī franču valodā. Tas papildināts ar nodaļu “Enoptromantija” –zīlēšana ar spoguli, un šai nodaļā autors tēžu veidā izklāsta notikumus un atklājumus pēc grāmatas pirmizdevuma iznākšanas. Vēl kāds īpašs notikums, kas saistās ar šo “Biblihigianse jeb kādas grāmatas stāsts” izdevumu. Pēc Marikas Rozenbergas sekodegunam ierosmes, šai grāmatai zīmola Nortean parfimērs Artūrs Petersons radījis īpašas smaržas “Liblium”, smaržas un arī pati grāmata nopērkama „Aminori” galerijā Rīgā. Parfimēram dotais uzdevums bija atveidot vecas grāmatas smaržu. Bet kā īsti beidzās grāmatas “Biblihigianse jeb Kādas grāmatas stāsts” ievadā pieteiktā interiga? Grāmata izdzīvoja. Grāmatas atvēršanas svētkos tā gluži kā muzeja eksponāts bija aplūkojama stikla vitrīnā, līdzās smaržām “Liblium”. Grāmatā aprakstīts, kā Nikolā Ozano Francijā devies pie grāmatu sējēja, meistars nogriezis viņam gabaliņu īpaša auduma, devis pāris padomus, un ieteicis izjukušo sējumu iesiet paša rokām.
It seems as if every lawyer on planet earth has weighed in on Bryan Kohberger and depending on their background, their commentary has been all over the place. If you let the former FBI agents and prosecutors tell it, they would have you believe that this is going to be a slam dunk for the prosecution. However, on the flipside of that, we hear from defense lawyesr about how each one of these pieces of evidence can have holes punched in it. The question is...who is right?Let's dive in and take a look!(commercial at 10:08)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Lara Yeretsian Tries to 'Poke Holes' in Bryan Kohberger Case (lawandcrime.com)

Getting a college degree can substantially increase your lifetime earnings, but even better is getting someone else to pay for it.I'm talking about scholarships, of course. Every year, public and private institutions dole out about $8 billion in scholarships. Are you getting any of it? I'll talk about how you can.The Rising Cost of CollegeNo question about it: college is expensive. The College Board reports that in 2024, in-state students at public four-year schools are spending an average of $11,260 on tuition and fees for just one year, excluding room and board. Students at private, four-year colleges are spending over $41,500 on tuition and fees alone. With these expenses, it's not surprising that the average student owes close to $30,000 when leaving school. But you don't have to be the average student.Scholarships: Your Key to AffordabilityMany organizations are willing to help you pay for college through scholarships…if you meet their qualifications. Our own Rob West's wife Julie had her own “application assembly line” going, and she was able to land $170,000 in scholarship money. Of course, that took a lot of work…but look at it this way: you can either put in the time and effort now applying for scholarships, or you can borrow and work very hard later to pay back the money. We hope that you'd rather do the work now, so let's dive into some great resources for scholarship money.Top Scholarship ResourcesFastweb: They host more than 1.5 million scholarships totaling nearly $3.5 billion. To get started, create a profile at FastWeb.com. A search feature helps match you to scholarships that meet your individual needs and keeps track of where you've applied.College Board: Known for testing materials like the SATs, the College Board also helps you pay for college. On their site, you can apply for scholarships and internships. They have leads to about 2,200 programs offering nearly $6 billion in college aid every year.Niche.com: This site helps you find not only money but also colleges that cater to your specific major and interests.Scholarships.com: They have a massive database with over 3.5 million scholarship and grant opportunities totaling almost $20 billion. Browse by category or set up a profile to find scholarships specific to your interests.Appily (formerly Cappex): They offer leads on $11 billion in scholarship opportunities and have a tool to help you calculate the odds of getting into a school of your choice before you apply.Chegg: Best known as an online textbook store, Chegg also has great articles about finding and applying for scholarships and grants. Knowing the difference between scholarships and grants could help you land one.Specialized ScholarshipsMany of these scholarship opportunities are merit-based, meaning the higher your grades, the better your chances of landing one. But if you're more athletically inclined, Unigo lets you search for athletic scholarships and a wide variety of funding opportunities offered by specific schools and companies.Peterson's: Known as a clearinghouse for information about colleges and universities, they also host about $10 billion in scholarship opportunities.CareerOneStop: Sponsored by the Labor Department, this site allows you to search more than 8,000 scholarships, fellowships, and grants—money you won't have to pay back.Final TipsOne final idea: check with the financial aid office at the schools you apply to. Sometimes, they have scholarship money available too. We've covered a lot of scholarship sites, and you probably won't use all of them, but try at least a couple. Look for ones that are easy to work with or best match your needs. Many of them will have other features you might find handy.Good luck in your scholarship search!On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:We'd like to start something where we can put some money into an online bank to earn some interest. What would you suggest? My online savings account was compromised, and unauthorized wire transfers were made from it. I'm concerned about how to protect myself, as I didn't receive alerts about the transfers. Do you have any recommendations for securing online accounts and preventing fraud?I'm trying to help my mom, who is 81 years old, invest her money correctly. After selling some rental properties, she has about $500,000 in cash and another $500,000 in IRAs and other accounts. What questions should I ask when interviewing potential financial advisors to manage her money in a way that aligns with her values and needs as an 81-year-old widow?Resources Mentioned:1Password | LastPassBankrate.com | DepositAccounts.comRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

Bible Reading: Matthew 5:14-16; Philippians 2:14-15"Mom's calling," Selah said as she and her sister played with neighbor kids in the common area of their apartment complex. "It must be time for dinner already," said Alice. The girls told their friends goodbye and hurried to their apartment."Guess what!" said Mom as they talked about their day. "I got a job offer."Dad grinned. "Let me guess--someone asked you to babysit their kids."Mom laughed. "You're right. Melissa, in apartment three, asked if I'd like to watch Anya and Jaxton when she goes back to work on Mondays and Fridays."Selah looked surprised. "Dad, how did you know that was what someone wanted Mom to do?""Well, it's not the first time it's happened," said Dad. "The Petersons wanted Mom to take care of their son one weekend when they had to be away, remember? And a few weeks ago, the librarian at your school asked Mom to babysit for a couple of days."Alice looked puzzled. "That's so weird. It's not like Mom put flyers around town saying she'd babysit. Why do people keep asking her?""Well," said Mom, "they know I'm a stay-at-home mom, so maybe they figure I'd like to earn a little money. And I think another reason they ask me is because of you guys.""Us?" said Selah. "I don't get it."Mom smiled. "I think they look at you and say to themselves, 'Those are nice kids! I could trust my children to be in that home. I'll see if their mother would like to work for me.'"Alice grinned. "We're just such angels," she joked.Dad laughed. "Not quite. I've seen your halos slip off and hit the floor quite a few times. You're not angels, but you are lights. The Bible says Christians are supposed to be lights in a dark world, and I've seen both of you shine the light of Jesus to others in how you treat them. Because we know Jesus, we are God's children and have His love in our hearts. When we let His love shine through our words and actions, people will notice that we're different and hopefully be pointed to Him.""So thanks, girls, for being lights to our neighbors," said Mom. "Let's pray that our lives will make them want to know Jesus!"-Lore WolifHow About You?Do your actions cause people to notice that you're different--different from the world in general? You may not be an angel, but if you've trusted Jesus as your Savior, you have the light of His love in your life and can point others to Him through your words, your actions, and your attitude. What can you do to be a light in your school and neighborhood?Today's Key Verse:Let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven. (NIV) (Matthew 5:16)Today's Key Thought:Be a light for Jesus

Intro of what this episode is about…So, there's this trend in the influencer and guru world of trying to make God cool again. You've got your Petersons, your Hubermans, your Rogans, all preaching their own brand of spirituality, self-improvement, and self-optimization. And I've noticed this trend where they've moved more towards this acceptance of God or more open to a Jesus like figure. Not a problem on face value. I'm not here today to critique the flaws of religion. It's over done or at least we will save it for a different day. I want to examine why this happens and just the general understanding of these, what I want to call, Podcast Daddy.Look at it this way, we're all players in the grand theatre of life, acting out our parts in a drama as ancient as the myths of Greece. We can cast ourselves into three roles, I think, in some sense, obviously this is a bit oversimplified as I'm still trying to formulate my wording for this but: those striving to be Prometheus, stealing fire from the gods to bring wisdom to mankind and gods being the structures we live under, the structures that influence our desire without us really know it; those wanting to play Apollo, the priestly conduit between heaven and earth, and the Gods, being your interpreter of ‘the good'; and then there are those who are content being the chorus, echoing whatever tune the priestly Apollo plays.Basically, you have your wise guys, you have your priest, and you have the people who generally follow the priest or start becoming a wise guy. I might turn this into a more in depth essay but the episode includes some of my initial thoughts. Let me know what you think…Stay curious. This is a public episode.

Scott Peterson, convicted of first-degree murder in 2004 for the deaths of his pregnant wife, Laci Peterson, and their unborn son, has been granted a status hearing by a California judge, following the involvement of the Los Angeles Innocence Project (LAIP) in his case. Peterson's case, which garnered national attention, is set for a hearing on Mar. 12, where he is expected to appear via Zoom, while LAIP representatives will be present in person before Judge Elizabeth Hill. Now 51 years old, Peterson has served over two decades in prison after initially being sentenced to death, later commuted to life without parole. The involvement of the LA Innocence Project signals a significant development. The organization, known for taking on cases with potential DNA evidence to prove innocence, believes that Peterson's state and federal constitutional rights were violated. During a recent appearance on Court TV's “Opening Statements with Julie Grant,” criminal defense attorney Kaysia Earley highlighted the importance of the LAIP's involvement, stating, “Ultimately, his constitutional rights were violated so if there was any exculpatory evidence that can exonerate him that they see, then it's worth going after; and in this case, that exculpatory evidence is DNA evidence.” The LAIP seeks to conduct DNA testing on specific items related to the case, including a hammer believed to have been present at a burglary scene across the street from the Petersons' home around the time of Laci's disappearance. Additionally, they aim to test a blood-stained mattress found in a burned-out van in the Petersons' neighborhood on Christmas Day 2002. According to court filings from the LAIP, new evidence supports Peterson's claim of innocence and raises questions about who abducted and killed Laci and Conner Peterson. The documents assert violations of Peterson's constitutional rights and claim of actual innocence backed by newly discovered evidence. While a new trial may be ordered if Peterson's due process is found to be violated, it remains an uphill battle. Despite public scrutiny over Peterson's behavior, including infidelity, the focus lies on the potential new evidence and constitutional violations. Cameras will be permitted in the courtroom for what could be a pivotal moment in the ongoing legal saga surrounding Scott Peterson's conviction. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

The name Scott Peterson has resurfaced in the headlines, stirring up a case that has long been considered closed. The LA Innocence Project has taken up Peterson's cause, citing new potential evidence that could suggest his innocence in the murder of his wife, Lacey Peterson. This development begs the question: Could this be a breakthrough in a case many thought was resolved, or is it merely a distraction from the truth? Tony Brueski, host of "Hidden Killers," sought answers from Bob Motta, defense attorney and host of the podcast Defense Diaries. Motta, with his expertise in legal defense, weighed in on the potential impact of the LA Innocence Project's involvement. "Anytime you get like any of the innocence projects... they're not going to jump into a case if they feel it's completely fruitless," Motta stated, acknowledging the seriousness with which these organizations approach such cases. The discussion centered around a burnt-out van found a mile away from the Peterson home, containing what appears to be blood, and discovered a day after Lacey Peterson's disappearance. This van, previously unconnected to the case, now becomes a focal point of the LA Innocence Project's investigation. Motta expressed initial skepticism but also acknowledged the potential significance of this finding: "I was more... I thought it may have had a better chance of succeeding when I thought that it was related to the van that the burglars that Lacey is supposedly to have happened upon while she was walking the dog." The conversation also touched on the public perception of Scott Peterson, shaped by his infidelity and the media's portrayal. Motta pointed out the danger of conflating personal character flaws with criminal guilt: "Him being a bad husband, a terrible husband... does not necessarily make him a murderer." This distinction is crucial in re-examining the case, where public opinion may have been swayed by Peterson's character rather than hard evidence. Motta also delved into the legal intricacies of introducing new evidence through a post-conviction relief act petition. "It's got to be legitimate, you know, and it's got to be compelling," he explained, emphasizing the high bar for such evidence to be considered by the court. The question remains whether the van and its contents can meet these criteria. The case's complexity is further highlighted by the challenges of proving that this new evidence was truly undiscovered during the original trial. "If it was there and existed, and [Mark Geragos] just missed it, it's not newly discovered," Motta clarified, underlining the importance of this evidence being genuinely new to have any legal impact. Brueski and Motta's discussion shed light on the fine line between proving innocence and creating reasonable doubt. The presence of blood in the van, if connected to the Petersons, could open up new avenues for the defense. However, Motta remained cautious, suggesting that even if the blood is linked to the case, it does not automatically exonerate Scott Peterson. In conclusion, the involvement of the LA Innocence Project in the Scott Peterson case has reignited interest and debate around a case that many thought was firmly resolved. While the prospect of new evidence is tantalizing, its actual impact remains uncertain. As the legal process unfolds, one critical question persists: Will this new evidence unearthed by the LA Innocence Project lead to a dramatic reversal in Scott Peterson's fate, or will it simply reaffirm the verdict that has defined this case for over two decades?

The question remains whether the van and its contents can meet these criteria. The case's complexity is further highlighted by the challenges of proving that this new evidence was truly undiscovered during the original trial. "If it was there and existed, and [Mark Geragos] just missed it, it's not newly discovered," Motta clarified, underlining the importance of this evidence being genuinely new to have any legal impact. Brueski and Motta's discussion shed light on the fine line between proving innocence and creating reasonable doubt. The presence of blood in the van, if connected to the Petersons, could open up new avenues for the defense. However, Motta remained cautious, suggesting that even if the blood is linked to the case, it does not automatically exonerate Scott Peterson. In conclusion, the involvement of the LA Innocence Project in the Scott Peterson case has reignited interest and debate around a case that many thought was firmly resolved. While the prospect of new evidence is tantalizing, its actual impact remains uncertain. As the legal process unfolds, one critical question persists: Will this new evidence unearthed by the LA Innocence Project lead to a dramatic reversal in Scott Peterson's fate, or will it simply reaffirm the verdict that has defined this case for over two decades?

The Los Angeles Innocence Project has initiated an investigation into the 2004 murder conviction of Scott Peterson, citing fresh evidence that supports his claims of innocence in the deaths of his wife, Laci Peterson, and their unborn son, Conner. Scott Peterson's conviction in 2004 for first-degree murder in Laci's death and second-degree murder in Conner's sent shockwaves across the nation. Despite his death penalty sentence being overturned in 2020, his conviction has remained a contentious issue, drawing attention from legal experts and the public alike. The case began in December 2002 when Laci Peterson mysteriously vanished while eight months pregnant. Months later, the bodies of Laci and Conner washed ashore in the San Francisco Bay, their advanced state of decomposition complicating the determination of the exact cause of death. Early suspicions pointed towards Scott Peterson, exacerbated by his extramarital affair with Amber Frey. In 2004, Scott endured a five-month-long trial where prosecutors alleged that he murdered his family to collect a hefty life insurance payout. His conviction was partially rooted in his behavior after Laci's disappearance and his recorded conversations with Amber Frey, which portrayed him as dishonest and manipulative. Since his conviction, Scott Peterson has resided in San Quentin State Prison, adapting to the challenges of incarceration. His charismatic demeanor earned him the moniker "Scottie-Too-Hottie" among supporters and admirers. The legal battles surrounding Scott Peterson's case have been protracted and intense. In a significant development in 2020, the California Supreme Court overturned his death penalty sentence due to flaws in the trial process. While his conviction remained intact, this marked a turning point in the ongoing pursuit of a new trial. In the year 2024, the Los Angeles Innocence Project has undertaken Scott Peterson's case. New evidence has emerged, including updated witness statements that suggest a potential link between Laci's murder and a December 2002 burglary near the Petersons' residence. The organization also intends to perform fresh DNA testing on a blood-stained mattress discovered in proximity to the crime scene. Scott Peterson steadfastly maintains his innocence, and the involvement of the Los Angeles Innocence Project has injected optimism among those who believe he may have been wrongfully convicted. His attorney, Pat Harris, conveyed enthusiasm for the organization's efforts to establish Scott's innocence. The complex legal saga of Scott Peterson endures, as the pursuit of justice continues, driven by the hope that new evidence may shed light on the truth surrounding the tragic deaths of Laci and Conner Peterson.

Let's get into it: COLORADO NEWSLINE: Democratic Colorado Gov. Jared Polis signs four gun control bills into lawGOVERNMENTBY: SARA WILSON - APRIL 28, 2023 11:54 AMThe Governor, surrounded by gun-control advocates at a bill signing ceremony said, “Coloradans deserve to be safe in our communities, in our schools, our grocery stores, nightclubs and everywhere in between,” The new laws raise the minimum age to buy a gun to 21, impose a three-day waiting period for gun purchases, expand the state's Extreme Risk Protection Order law and make it easier for gun violence survivors to sue the gun industry.Under Senate Bill 23-170, district attorneys, educators, mental health professionals and other medical providers will be able to petition a judge to confiscate guns from a potentially dangerous person. Previously, only law enforcement and family members had that power under the state's Extreme Risk Protection Order law, also known as the red flag law, which was created in 2019.The expansion aims to increase utilization of the process and extend the petition authority to people who interact with an at-risk person regularly. It is a recognition that some law enforcement officials have been reluctant to use the red flag law when potentially appropriate due to concerns over the Second Amendment.Senate Bill 23-169 raises the age to purchase any gun to 21 years old. Previously, the age restriction was 18 to buy a long gun and 21 to buy a handgun. There are exceptions for members of law enforcement and the military.House Bill 23-1219 imposes a three-day waiting period for people to get a gun after they pay for it. Bill sponsors said that the delayed access to firearms will provide a cooling-off period for people in crisis who might harm themselves or others.Cities will be able to establish longer waiting periods if they choose. If the purchaser's background check takes longer than three days — which it rarely does — they would still need to wait until the background check clears to get their gun.Finally, Senate Bill 23-168 removes a state protection for gun and ammunition dealers and manufactures against lawsuits. Previously, plaintiffs had to pay the legal fees for defendants in dismissed cases involving gun sellers. That is no longer the case.The law makes the gun industry susceptible to lawsuits under the Colorado Consumer Protection Act.bill sponsor Sen. Sonya Jaquez Lewis, a Longmont Democrat, said, “We finally, after 23 years of waiting, can open up Colorado courtrooms to gun violence victims and survivors seeking justice,” Less than an hour after the bill signing, Rocky Mountain Gun Owners leader Taylor Rhodes announced on Twitter that the group had already filed lawsuits challenging the minimum age requirement and waiting period laws. He said they are seeking plaintiffs who could establish standing against the other two new laws.Lawmakers are also considering a bill that would outlaw unserialized firearms, also known as ghost guns. Another firearm bill that would have banned semi-automatic weapons in the state died in its first committee hearing last week.The Legislature adjourns on May 8.COLORADO NEWSLINE: Colorado lawmakers stand with Zooey ZephyrDemocratic state Rep. Brianna Titone of Arvada led over 75 Colorado elected officials - including two Republicans - in sending a letter to Montana lawmakers condemning the removal of Rep. Zooey Zephyr and calling for her to be allowed back in the Montana House chamber.In the letter, Rep. Titone said the removal was an attempt to erase trans people amid growing violence against them and an increase in anti-trans laws being passed in state legislatures.Titone said “As elected officials, it is our responsibility to act with integrity and defend our democracy, and we are deeply concerned with erosion of democratic norms we see proliferating in statehouses across the country. Regardless of your personal stance on these issues, she is still a colleague and a duly elected and sworn representative of the people of Montana. Her voice is no less important than yours.”The letter was joined by two Republican lawmakers, state Reps. Ron Weinberg of Loveland and Rick Taggart of Grand Junction.On Tuesday, Montana House Republicans posted a notice announcing they would take up disciplinary measures against Zephyr, Montana's first openly transgender representative, after she said that legislators who voted for a bill that bans gender-affirming care for minors would have blood on their hands, in reference to suicide rates among trans youth. The Montana House voted along party lines Wednesday to bar Zephyr from entering the House floor or gallery for the remainder of the legislative session, only allowing her to participate in votes via Zoom.Rep. Titone made history in 2018 when she was elected the first openly transgender state legislator in Colorado. As chair of the Colorado Legislative LGBTQ caucus, she's worked alongside members of the House and Senate to expand and protect LGBTQ rights in the state.In the letter, Titone applauded Zephyr for her efforts in the Montana Legislature, saying that she has “placed a spotlight of truth on the very real damage anti-trans legislation could have on Montanans who are already struggling with discrimination and growing fear of physical harm.”The Montana state legislative session ends on May 10, and Zephyr is unlikely to be reinstated before the end of the session.

In their letters, the groups cited an increase in extremist and conspiratorial rhetoric espoused by Arizona public officials, specifically, publicly elected sheriffs. “We are deeply concerned by the possibility that this amended rule will open the door for Arizona peace officers to receive training from adherents of the ‘constitutional sheriffs' movement and other actors who urge local law enforcement to assume authorities beyond those allowed by law,” wrote Mary McCord, the executive director of Georgetown University Law Center's ICAP, a nonpartisan institute focused on constitutional rights and protecting democratic processes.McCord warned that such taxpayer-funded trainings “would place residents at risk of improper activity by county peace officers” and pose a particular threat to brown and Black communities, “who are at the greatest risk of harm from abuses by law enforcement.”The letters cited previous reporting about so-called “constitutional sheriff” groups, which include the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association. The group is part of a national movement built on the idea that a local sheriff's power supersedes that of higher government entities including the U.S. president and the U.S. Supreme Court, and that sheriffs have a duty to nullify laws they interpret as unconstitutional.The civil rights and advocacy organizations highlighted numerous connections between the CSPOA and a variety of hate groups, with the NAACP denouncing some CSPOA members as “prominent antisemites, QAnon conspiracists, white nationalists and neo-confederates.”Sarah Kader, community manager for ADL Arizona, a state-level branch of a national organization that combats hate groups in the U.S., wrote “If the revised rule goes into effect, we fear that domestic extremists, based on their previous actions, will rush to take advantage of the opportunity,” Rachel Goldwasser, a senior research analyst for the Southern Poverty Law Center, warned that the rule change could be used as a blueprint for creating workarounds allowing extremist organizations to train law enforcement in other states.Neither the governor, Democrat Katie Hobbs nor the attorney general, Democrat Kris Mayes, directly addressed concerns about neo-confederates and other domestic extremists running law enforcement trainings.ADL confirmed it did not receive a response from Gov. Hobbs' office until after the rule change took effect, though a spokesperson indicated the group had “every reason to believe that the Governor's office understands the concerns we have raised in our letters and is taking them seriously.” In their letters, ADL, SPLC and the NAACP all expressed concerns that more than half of Arizona sheriffs are at least partially aligned with the constitutional sheriff movement—connections AZCIR highlighted in its 2022 reporting.Rachel Goldwasser of SPLC said “Arizona has a large extremist presence in the Legislature, sheriffs' offices and among the public, unfortunately. They'll exploit any opportunity for these extremists to spread their ideology.”Three of the four letters also issued a warning about Pinal County Sheriff Mark Lamb, who has known ties to CSPOA and is the frontman for Protect America Now, another so-called “constitutional sheriff” organization.Lamb, who announced a bid for the U.S. Senate in April, has developed a national presence by appearing on a slew of fringe right-wing news networks and podcasts, including those espousing QAnon conspiracies. Lamb did not respond to a request for comment.Sarah Kader of ADL said “In recent years, extreme ideologies have been mainstreamed and normalized at an alarming pace. This is due in large part to the growing number of elected officials and other high-profile individuals who traffic in conspiracies and hate.”This article first appeared on Arizona Center for Investigative Reporting and is republished here under a Creative Commons license.DENVER WESTWORD: How Hard Can it Bee? ZzzzzzBee Here Now: Capella Ranch Has a Honey of an IdeaCATIE CHESHIRE APRIL 25, 2023 6:53AMIn countries like Germany and Slovenia, inhaling the aerosol created by bees in an apiary, or collection of beehives, is an authorized treatment for respiratory diseases. But in the United States, there are only three places that offer the experience: one in Georgia, one in Michigan, and Capella Ranch in Lafayette Colorado, which just opened for its second season.Carolyn Peterson, who owns the ranch with her family said “I'm going to be out here all summer, talking to people and enjoying them and hearing their stories. They're going to come stressed out, and then they're going to leave relaxed.”Capella Ranch currently has sheep, Nigerian dwarf goats, Nubian goats, ducks, chickens, a few turkeys and, of course, bees, the first of which arrived in 2018. To create their bee therapy Shangri-la, the Petersons started by building two cedar huts shaped like irregular pentagons. The cedar contributes to the aroma in the huts, although its durability in the Colorado weather is its chief asset here. The slanted roof of the hut concentrates the aerosol so people can breathe it in while they're lying flat. “Everyone comes out with a different experience,” Carolyn says. “They get in there. They lie down. They take in the whole thing, and then they just sort of concentrate on the humming of the bees.”When bees make honey, there's a lot of water in it at first, so the insects work to reduce the moisture content by flapping their wings. As it evaporates, the moisture is carried into the air to form an aerosol that people find therapeutic.The bees also create an electromagnetic field with their vibration, which is at a frequency that's calming to the human parasympathetic nervous system - a network of nerves that helps relax the body. Some people can feel the field, but most notice the smell first. Underneath the scent of cedar, there is the aromatic tang of the bees at work. Almost like the smell of a newborn baby, but with an extra oomph.“That is all the pollen, nectars, amino acids and essential oils that the bees are bringing in to make the honey,” Carolyn says. “It's just kind of an odd smell, and it's supposed to be very good to breathe in.”In Slovenia, the bee experience has been used to calm firefighters after hard jobs, children who have behavioral problems at school, and parents of those children, who might need some relaxation as well. The Petersons note that they aren't medical professionals, so they don't consider their huts medicinal.“If it happens to help, great,” Carolyn says. “It's relaxing. It's thirty minutes of nobody bugging you.”One person who says the bee huts have helped is Marsha Ruggeri, who lives in Lafayette. She went to Capella Ranch four times during its inaugural season.She first came with a friend who'd bought a deal on Groupon. After struggling with heightened asthma symptoms the past two years — which she attributes to wildfires and air pollution — Ruggeri was excited to learn of a potential way to alleviate her symptoms.And, it worked!“I'm not saying it was a panacea,” she says. “It felt like I was actually doing something that wasn't an inhaler or medication and I was regaining some control over how my body was reacting to all this shit in the air.”On Ruggeri's third visit, she experienced the electromagnetic field produced by the bees.“I was laying on my side, and then all of a sudden, I could feel it,” she says. “It really deserves more than one treatment. It's kind of like people who go for acupuncture, and they're like, ‘Well, it didn't do anything for me.' You really need to try it more than once.”Along with the eight hives in the huts, there are six to eight more near a special pond on the ranch where the bees drink. Last summer, over a hundred people came to Capella Ranch to check out the bees; a TikTok Charlie made announcing that the huts were open has gained about 20,000 views.One of those visitors, a reiki and yoga teacher from Fort Collins named Yarmey, found Capella Ranch on Instagram. “I'm really interested in energy and grounding and our connection to nature,” she says. Reiki is a practice of directing energy to help facilitate healing.After her first visit, Yarmey came back a second time, when she says she was really able to share a meditative space with the bees, reveling in their presence in a way that humans rarely get to do with other species.“When else in your life do you get to share space with a million other beings who all are very clear about their purpose and their path and what they need to be doing? Everything felt a little slower, more grounded.”The huts are now open for a second season; anyone is welcome except those allergic to bee or wasp stings. A thirty-minute session is $35; an hour runs $60. CONCERT PICK OF THE WEEKDENVER POST: Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit, with Angel Olsen - this Thursday and Friday night at Red Rocks.By JOHN WENZEL | jwenzel@denverpost.com | The Denver PostApril 28, 2023 at 6:00 a.m.Jason Isbell's voice can be a strapping, mournful thing, muscular and dripping with vulnerability as he chronicles his life in song. And on this day, it's still waking up.“This time of year I drink my black coffee cold so I can get it down quicker,” the 44-year-old singer-songwriter said over the phone from his Nashville porch on Monday. “I've spent so many years working late at night that it makes it hard for me to get on with normal life. It's tough, you know? But I think it's tough no matter how you do it.”Isbell's family and acclaimed music career test his resolve while giving him motivation to stay sober and productive. He has won a quartet of Grammy Awards since 2018 — about a decade after getting kicked out of his former alt-country band, Drive-By Truckers, for drinking and drugs In the HBO Max documentary “Music Box: Jason Isbell — Running with Our Eyes Closed,” which was released on April 7, we're afforded a close-up on his life as he records the album “Reunions” with his band, the 400 Unit. His intimate musical and romantic partnership with wife Amanda Shires (who is an acclaimed solo artist herself), his love of his daughter Mercy Rose, his past divorce, and the shock of the pandemic are all there in vivid cross-section.“If you're a recording artist or entertainer with any kind of success, you don't want to spend too much time looking back,” said Isbell, who was born in Green Hill, Ala., to a 17-year-old mother. “It's a self-centered way of living. But one thing I was surprised by watching the (documentary) is that I'd forgotten how hard those old days were, growing up where I did and having addiction issues. It was nice to see but painful to watch, that all of this was real and really happened to me, even if it's long in the rearview.”Isbell will headline Red Rocks Amphitheatre May 3 and 4 with the 400 Unit, on tour for their new album “Weathervanes,” to be released June 9. The lead single “Death Wish” has already been covered by Jack White and featured on “American Idol.” Isbell's melodies channel Americana, folk, country, and rock and roll. His lyrics are cutting, urgent, and full of visceral metaphors. On “Death Wish,” he sings:“I wanted action, she wanted answers / Sunrise with the dealers and the dancers / It takes a whole lot of medicine to feel like a little kid.”Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit With Angel Olsen, Two shows, May 3 and 4, at Red Rocks Amphitheatre.

Let's get into it: COLORADO NEWSLINE: Democratic Colorado Gov. Jared Polis signs four gun control bills into lawGOVERNMENTBY: SARA WILSON - APRIL 28, 2023 11:54 AMThe Governor, surrounded by gun-control advocates at a bill signing ceremony said, “Coloradans deserve to be safe in our communities, in our schools, our grocery stores, nightclubs and everywhere in between,” The new laws raise the minimum age to buy a gun to 21, impose a three-day waiting period for gun purchases, expand the state's Extreme Risk Protection Order law and make it easier for gun violence survivors to sue the gun industry.Under Senate Bill 23-170, district attorneys, educators, mental health professionals and other medical providers will be able to petition a judge to confiscate guns from a potentially dangerous person. Previously, only law enforcement and family members had that power under the state's Extreme Risk Protection Order law, also known as the red flag law, which was created in 2019.The expansion aims to increase utilization of the process and extend the petition authority to people who interact with an at-risk person regularly. It is a recognition that some law enforcement officials have been reluctant to use the red flag law when potentially appropriate due to concerns over the Second Amendment.Senate Bill 23-169 raises the age to purchase any gun to 21 years old. Previously, the age restriction was 18 to buy a long gun and 21 to buy a handgun. There are exceptions for members of law enforcement and the military.House Bill 23-1219 imposes a three-day waiting period for people to get a gun after they pay for it. Bill sponsors said that the delayed access to firearms will provide a cooling-off period for people in crisis who might harm themselves or others.Cities will be able to establish longer waiting periods if they choose. If the purchaser's background check takes longer than three days — which it rarely does — they would still need to wait until the background check clears to get their gun.Finally, Senate Bill 23-168 removes a state protection for gun and ammunition dealers and manufactures against lawsuits. Previously, plaintiffs had to pay the legal fees for defendants in dismissed cases involving gun sellers. That is no longer the case.The law makes the gun industry susceptible to lawsuits under the Colorado Consumer Protection Act.bill sponsor Sen. Sonya Jaquez Lewis, a Longmont Democrat, said, “We finally, after 23 years of waiting, can open up Colorado courtrooms to gun violence victims and survivors seeking justice,” Less than an hour after the bill signing, Rocky Mountain Gun Owners leader Taylor Rhodes announced on Twitter that the group had already filed lawsuits challenging the minimum age requirement and waiting period laws. He said they are seeking plaintiffs who could establish standing against the other two new laws.Lawmakers are also considering a bill that would outlaw unserialized firearms, also known as ghost guns. Another firearm bill that would have banned semi-automatic weapons in the state died in its first committee hearing last week.The Legislature adjourns on May 8.COLORADO NEWSLINE: Colorado lawmakers stand with Zooey ZephyrDemocratic state Rep. Brianna Titone of Arvada led over 75 Colorado elected officials - including two Republicans - in sending a letter to Montana lawmakers condemning the removal of Rep. Zooey Zephyr and calling for her to be allowed back in the Montana House chamber.In the letter, Rep. Titone said the removal was an attempt to erase trans people amid growing violence against them and an increase in anti-trans laws being passed in state legislatures.Titone said “As elected officials, it is our responsibility to act with integrity and defend our democracy, and we are deeply concerned with erosion of democratic norms we see proliferating in statehouses across the country. Regardless of your personal stance on these issues, she is still a colleague and a duly elected and sworn representative of the people of Montana. Her voice is no less important than yours.”The letter was joined by two Republican lawmakers, state Reps. Ron Weinberg of Loveland and Rick Taggart of Grand Junction.On Tuesday, Montana House Republicans posted a notice announcing they would take up disciplinary measures against Zephyr, Montana's first openly transgender representative, after she said that legislators who voted for a bill that bans gender-affirming care for minors would have blood on their hands, in reference to suicide rates among trans youth. The Montana House voted along party lines Wednesday to bar Zephyr from entering the House floor or gallery for the remainder of the legislative session, only allowing her to participate in votes via Zoom.Rep. Titone made history in 2018 when she was elected the first openly transgender state legislator in Colorado. As chair of the Colorado Legislative LGBTQ caucus, she's worked alongside members of the House and Senate to expand and protect LGBTQ rights in the state.In the letter, Titone applauded Zephyr for her efforts in the Montana Legislature, saying that she has “placed a spotlight of truth on the very real damage anti-trans legislation could have on Montanans who are already struggling with discrimination and growing fear of physical harm.”The Montana state legislative session ends on May 10, and Zephyr is unlikely to be reinstated before the end of the session.

Brianna Titone, here are the elected officials from Colorado who signed Titone's letter to the Members of the Montana House of Representatives:Statewide officials:Colorado Secretary of State Jena GriswoldColorado State Treasurer Dave YoungColorado state senators and representatives:House Speaker Julie McCluskieSenate President Steve FenbergHouse Majority Leader Monica DuranSenate Majority Leader Dominick MorenoRep.

In their letters, the groups cited an increase in extremist and conspiratorial rhetoric espoused by Arizona public officials, specifically, publicly elected sheriffs. “We are deeply concerned by the possibility that this amended rule will open the door for Arizona peace officers to receive training from adherents of the ‘constitutional sheriffs' movement and other actors who urge local law enforcement to assume authorities beyond those allowed by law,” wrote Mary McCord, the executive director of Georgetown University Law Center's ICAP, a nonpartisan institute focused on constitutional rights and protecting democratic processes.McCord warned that such taxpayer-funded trainings “would place residents at risk of improper activity by county peace officers” and pose a particular threat to brown and Black communities, “who are at the greatest risk of harm from abuses by law enforcement.”The letters cited previous reporting about so-called “constitutional sheriff” groups, which include the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association. The group is part of a national movement built on the idea that a local sheriff's power supersedes that of higher government entities including the U.S. president and the U.S. Supreme Court, and that sheriffs have a duty to nullify laws they interpret as unconstitutional.The civil rights and advocacy organizations highlighted numerous connections between the CSPOA and a variety of hate groups, with the NAACP denouncing some CSPOA members as “prominent antisemites, QAnon conspiracists, white nationalists and neo-confederates.”Sarah Kader, community manager for ADL Arizona, a state-level branch of a national organization that combats hate groups in the U.S., wrote “If the revised rule goes into effect, we fear that domestic extremists, based on their previous actions, will rush to take advantage of the opportunity,” Rachel Goldwasser, a senior research analyst for the Southern Poverty Law Center, warned that the rule change could be used as a blueprint for creating workarounds allowing extremist organizations to train law enforcement in other states.Neither the governor, Democrat Katie Hobbs nor the attorney general, Democrat Kris Mayes, directly addressed concerns about neo-confederates and other domestic extremists running law enforcement trainings.ADL confirmed it did not receive a response from Gov. Hobbs' office until after the rule change took effect, though a spokesperson indicated the group had “every reason to believe that the Governor's office understands the concerns we have raised in our letters and is taking them seriously.” In their letters, ADL, SPLC and the NAACP all expressed concerns that more than half of Arizona sheriffs are at least partially aligned with the constitutional sheriff movement—connections AZCIR highlighted in its 2022 reporting.Rachel Goldwasser of SPLC said “Arizona has a large extremist presence in the Legislature, sheriffs' offices and among the public, unfortunately. They'll exploit any opportunity for these extremists to spread their ideology.”Three of the four letters also issued a warning about Pinal County Sheriff Mark Lamb, who has known ties to CSPOA and is the frontman for Protect America Now, another so-called “constitutional sheriff” organization.Lamb, who announced a bid for the U.S. Senate in April, has developed a national presence by appearing on a slew of fringe right-wing news networks and podcasts, including those espousing QAnon conspiracies. Lamb did not respond to a request for comment.Sarah Kader of ADL said “In recent years, extreme ideologies have been mainstreamed and normalized at an alarming pace. This is due in large part to the growing number of elected officials and other high-profile individuals who traffic in conspiracies and hate.”This article first appeared on Arizona Center for Investigative Reporting and is republished here under a Creative Commons license.DENVER WESTWORD: How Hard Can it Bee? ZzzzzzBee Here Now: Capella Ranch Has a Honey of an IdeaCATIE CHESHIRE APRIL 25, 2023 6:53AMIn countries like Germany and Slovenia, inhaling the aerosol created by bees in an apiary, or collection of beehives, is an authorized treatment for respiratory diseases. But in the United States, there are only three places that offer the experience: one in Georgia, one in Michigan, and Capella Ranch in Lafayette Colorado, which just opened for its second season.Carolyn Peterson, who owns the ranch with her family said “I'm going to be out here all summer, talking to people and enjoying them and hearing their stories. They're going to come stressed out, and then they're going to leave relaxed.”Capella Ranch currently has sheep, Nigerian dwarf goats, Nubian goats, ducks, chickens, a few turkeys and, of course, bees, the first of which arrived in 2018. To create their bee therapy Shangri-la, the Petersons started by building two cedar huts shaped like irregular pentagons. The cedar contributes to the aroma in the huts, although its durability in the Colorado weather is its chief asset here. The slanted roof of the hut concentrates the aerosol so people can breathe it in while they're lying flat. “Everyone comes out with a different experience,” Carolyn says. “They get in there. They lie down. They take in the whole thing, and then they just sort of concentrate on the humming of the bees.”When bees make honey, there's a lot of water in it at first, so the insects work to reduce the moisture content by flapping their wings. As it evaporates, the moisture is carried into the air to form an aerosol that people find therapeutic.The bees also create an electromagnetic field with their vibration, which is at a frequency that's calming to the human parasympathetic nervous system - a network of nerves that helps relax the body. Some people can feel the field, but most notice the smell first. Underneath the scent of cedar, there is the aromatic tang of the bees at work. Almost like the smell of a newborn baby, but with an extra oomph.“That is all the pollen, nectars, amino acids and essential oils that the bees are bringing in to make the honey,” Carolyn says. “It's just kind of an odd smell, and it's supposed to be very good to breathe in.”In Slovenia, the bee experience has been used to calm firefighters after hard jobs, children who have behavioral problems at school, and parents of those children, who might need some relaxation as well. The Petersons note that they aren't medical professionals, so they don't consider their huts medicinal.“If it happens to help, great,” Carolyn says. “It's relaxing. It's thirty minutes of nobody bugging you.”One person who says the bee huts have helped is Marsha Ruggeri, who lives in Lafayette. She went to Capella Ranch four times during its inaugural season.She first came with a friend who'd bought a deal on Groupon. After struggling with heightened asthma symptoms the past two years — which she attributes to wildfires and air pollution — Ruggeri was excited to learn of a potential way to alleviate her symptoms.And, it worked!“I'm not saying it was a panacea,” she says. “It felt like I was actually doing something that wasn't an inhaler or medication and I was regaining some control over how my body was reacting to all this shit in the air.”On Ruggeri's third visit, she experienced the electromagnetic field produced by the bees.“I was laying on my side, and then all of a sudden, I could feel it,” she says. “It really deserves more than one treatment. It's kind of like people who go for acupuncture, and they're like, ‘Well, it didn't do anything for me.' You really need to try it more than once.”Along with the eight hives in the huts, there are six to eight more near a special pond on the ranch where the bees drink. Last summer, over a hundred people came to Capella Ranch to check out the bees; a TikTok Charlie made announcing that the huts were open has gained about 20,000 views.One of those visitors, a reiki and yoga teacher from Fort Collins named Yarmey, found Capella Ranch on Instagram. “I'm really interested in energy and grounding and our connection to nature,” she says. Reiki is a practice of directing energy to help facilitate healing.After her first visit, Yarmey came back a second time, when she says she was really able to share a meditative space with the bees, reveling in their presence in a way that humans rarely get to do with other species.“When else in your life do you get to share space with a million other beings who all are very clear about their purpose and their path and what they need to be doing? Everything felt a little slower, more grounded.”The huts are now open for a second season; anyone is welcome except those allergic to bee or wasp stings. A thirty-minute session is $35; an hour runs $60. CONCERT PICK OF THE WEEKDENVER POST: Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit, with Angel Olsen - this Thursday and Friday night at Red Rocks.By JOHN WENZEL | jwenzel@denverpost.com | The Denver PostApril 28, 2023 at 6:00 a.m.Jason Isbell's voice can be a strapping, mournful thing, muscular and dripping with vulnerability as he chronicles his life in song.

In this episode, we take a bit of a detour from current trends and examine a talk by the philosopher Daniel Dennett on evolution. Dennett rose to public prominence as one of the so-called four horsemen of the New Athiest movement but he always seemed slightly out of place with that cohort. Dennett's is most certainly a guru in the sense that he offers big picture 'what does it all mean' lectures linking together consciousness, intelligence, the emergence of complexity and evolution. But is there some substance there? Or does his appeal hinge on on intuitively-satisfying cosmic woo offered by less reputable figures.On a positive note, he seemed to be more interested in academic and philosophical debates than the latest culture war outrage. As such he doesn't share that much with our usual targets... and that's ok! Sometimes it is good to look at figures who fall closer to the standard public intellectual or academic motif than that of the secular guru. At the very least it helps to calibrate our gurometer! So join us for a slightly indulgent episode on a figure that we both broadly enjoy despite the inevitable nit-picking. An extended introduction section will also reveal our first DTG conspiracy hypothesis, the mating habits of orcs and dragons, and what Nazi AIs have in common with Robocop. And stick around at the end to hear about the future of education from the Petersons!LinksDennett's talk on Information, Evolution, and Intelligent Design at the Royal InstituteBusiness Insider article on that historical figure AI chatbotMikhaila Peterson: Q&A to end the Year Episode. 174Thread from Lex's Subreddit removed by Moderators
Jonathan Pageau and Gregg Hurwitz sit down with Dr. Jordan B Peterson to discuss a few of his recent controversial tweets covering topics of transgenderism, the body positivity movement, and the election of supreme court justice, Ketanji Brown Jackson. In this they seek to explore and debate how Petersons role in society, and thus how he represents himself to the public, can spark or shut down the conversation.Hurwitz is an American novelist, screenwriter, and comic book writer. He is known for authoring the “Orphan X” series, along with a wide range of films such as “The Book of Henry” (2017) and “The Rise of Jordan Peterson” (2019). Pageau is a liturgical artist and professional icon carver, known for his work featured in museums across the world.

On his last speaking tour, he visited thirty plus number of countries speaking on the twelve rules and continues to foster relationships and connections with thinkers, speakers, and fans from around the globe.Shownotes:[00:00] Jordan Petersons is interviewed in this episode by Mikhail Avdeev, a member of his foreign translations team. The interview focuses on the impact of Petersons work beyond the western world on the international community as a whole. They begin the discussion by talking about the forming of the international translation teams.[02:00] The healing effect of Jordan's lectures on people's personal life. The outcry for new material from jordans catalog of books, lectures, and podcasts has been overwhelming. [05:20] Peterson comments on another personal favorite author of his Mircea Eliade and his history of Religious Ideas. It's an anthropological and sociological assessment of religion but it's also deeply psychological.[06:40] How do Russian views respond to Jordan's affinity for Alexander Solzhenitsyn? Mikail details the feelings of the Russian people by their portrayal after the fall of communism.[10:00] How we deal with the guilt of the things our ancestors or society has done is a very difficult question because as humans we are very historical creatures. The best thing for us is to try to understand what happened and therefore try not to do it again in the future because all of us are living with this to some degree.[13:30] examining the trope that all white people are racist or white supremacist and this stems from the existential guilt of history.[20:00] Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris, and Daniel Dennett seem to equate that religious belief is a set of propositions about the material world, in a way a direct competitor to scientific theory, and that's just not fully accurate. There is something outside of strictly rationality in the human experience.[34:20] Fragmentation of the value structure necessarily leads to an increased level of constant anxiety in all experience[36:30] What parts of modern society are contributing to the integrity of consciousness, and what things are degrading that. A hatred for real success and striving for personal gain will tear us apart if it continues unchecked.[43:30] There is no doubt that economic exploitation occurs and that some wealth is gained in an unethical manner, but that is not the rule.[45:45] - Asking about the importance of beauty in all of our personal experiences as well as our collective experience as humans.[51:00] interesting to consider the differences in Fyodor Dostoevsky and Friedrich Nietzsche closeness to the ideal of beauty[56:30] The complexity of the language of Beyond Order:12 More Rules for Life. What is Jordan's process for increasing the precision of his speech and writing? [1:03:30] The divinity of the true word and the way this has been translated through Jordan's book Beyond Order. Peterson's philosophy behind good writing and text structure of a truly complete work.[1:13:40] Mikhaila Peterson has had to choose to be strong because she has had so much suffering to overcome in her life. It's wonderful to see her succeeding in her personal endeavors like her weekly podcast.[1:20:15] How do we best teach our children in a way that fosters their individual growth and a love of learning.
