Carnegie Mellon University is opening a new campus in Miami, thanks to a $3 billion gift from hedge fund manager Ken Griffin. It's the largest single donation ever made to a U.S. university. Host Megan Harris, executive producer Mallory Falk, and contributor and City Paper Managing Editor Colin Williams discuss the school's Florida expansion (spring breaaaaaaak forever), Griffin's status as a GOP megadonor, and why so many colleges are opening branch campuses in the Sunshine State. Plus, Mayor Corey O'Connor just released his proposed city budget — long story short, our finances are still looking pretty bleak —  paid parental leave is one step closer to reality in Allegheny County, and a long-lost candy bar gets resurrected just in time for Halloween. And in our members-only bonus segment, we take you on a tour of former Steelers coach Mike Tomlin's truly massive virtual city in Minecraft.

Em 1906, aos dezenove anos, William Henry Branson começou o serviço denominacional como colportor. Foi ordenado em 1910. Em 1911, presidia a Associação da Carolina do Sul — aos vinte e três anos, um ano depois da ordenação, cinco anos depois de vender livros de porta em porta, sem formação superior concluída. E em 1920, aos trinta e três, foi encarregado de organizar a Divisão Africana. Não de dirigir uma estrutura existente: de criar do zero a arquitetura administrativa adventista para um continente inteiro. Mudou-se para a Cidade do Cabo com a esposa e dois filhos pequenos, e presidiu aquilo por uma década — de onde saíram Pioneering in the Lion Country, de 1925, e Missionary Adventures in Africa, de 1928. Depois vieram as duas passagens pela China. A primeira em 1939, em plena guerra sino-japonesa. A segunda de 1946 a 1950, no período que os registros institucionais chamam de grande perplexidade — a fase final da guerra civil. Foi ali que Branson se tornou conhecido como grande promotor do evangelismo público, com campanhas em Pequim e outras cidades, seguidas pelas reuniões de Fordyce Detamore em Hong Kong e Xangai, com milhares de conversos. Evangelizando, literalmente, contra o relógio de uma revolução. A República Popular foi proclamada em outubro de 1949 e o campo fechou atrás dele. Foi esse homem que a Sessão de 1950 elegeu presidente, duas semanas e meia depois do início da Guerra da Coreia. E a assembleia respondeu ao mundo que se fechava convocando os membros de toda parte a um evangelismo mundial sem paralelo, ao qual todo outro interesse seria subordinado — com a meta de dobrar a membresia, de setecentos e cinquenta mil para um milhão e meio. O que veio nos quatro anos seguintes: centros evangelísticos permanentes comprados ou construídos nas grandes cidades — o New Gallery Theater em Londres, um hotel remodelado e depois o centro da Times Square em Nova York, e unidades no Cairo, em Beirute, em Osaka, em Manila, no Rio de Janeiro e em Jacarta. R. Allan Anderson atraindo quatro mil pessoas ao Carnegie Hall; George Vandeman falando a sete mil no Coliseum de Londres. Pela primeira vez, um evangelista profissional eleito para dirigir a Associação Ministerial. A estreia do Faith for Today na televisão de Nova York, somando-se ao alcance que A Voz da Profecia tinha no rádio desde 1942. E os números, sem inflação. Ao final de 1950, setecentos e cinquenta e seis mil setecentos e doze membros. O milhão e meio foi atingido ao final de 1964: um milhão, quinhentos e oito mil e cinquenta e seis. Catorze anos exatos — e a denominação registrou os catorze anos sem maquiar. No arco completo da campanha, a membresia fora da América do Norte mais que dobrou. O crescimento verdadeiro do período não precisa de cifra falsa. Esta aula também examina o outro lado do mandato, e é preciso anunciá-lo aqui. O mesmo presidente que impulsionou a expansão tomou, em 1951, providências para fechar a Bible Research Fellowship — a confraria que professores adventistas de Bíblia haviam formado por conta própria em 1943 — e propôs, no lugar dela, a Conferência Bíblica de 1952, convocada, segundo a documentação de Gilbert Valentine, para contrapor o que ele percebia como a influência objetável do grupo. Foi a maior reunião teológica da história adventista até então, com quatrocentos e cinquenta delegados e o Our Firm Foundation que formaria gerações. Também foi uma conferência com todas as apresentações comprometidas por escrito de antemão. A aula examina o que isso ensina sobre a diferença entre apoiar e absorver. FONTES - BRANSON, W. H.

Legacy is a series about living for something bigger than ourselves. As we step into a new season as a church, we're exploring what it means to build a life — and a faith — that leaves a lasting impact. Not just what we leave for people, but what we leave in people. Every generation has a part to play in advancing God's Kingdom, and this series is a call to live with eternity in mind. To continue the series Pastor Mark Foster shared a great message titled 'A Pioneering Legacy' — catch up here.

Artificial intelligence is reshaping work, leaving many people wondering how to gain the skills they need to keep up with a rapidly changing world. Now, a group of American community colleges is working to democratize AI education and prepare students for the future.On this episode, host Sara Frueh is joined by Antonio Delgado, vice president of innovation and technology partnerships at Miami-Dade College and founder and leader of the National Applied AI Consortium. Delgado discusses “applied AI,” a pioneering program at Miami-Dade that provides students pathways to these jobs, and the broader effort by community colleges to help meet the need for AI-fluent workers in the labor force. ResourcesCheck out Antonio Delgado's Issues article, “Community Colleges are Training the Applied AI Workforce” (Summer 2026) to learn more about how he developed Miami Dade College's applied AI degree program and founded the National Applied AI Consortium.Visit the National Applied AI Consortium's website to learn more about their work. 

Bad Bunny has spent the past week reinforcing his status as both a cultural powerhouse and a business innovator, with headlines touching fashion, awards, touring strategy, money, and the broader future of Latin music. On the fashion and brand side, Hypebeast reports that Bad Bunny and adidas just unveiled the Badbo 1.0 “Puerto Rican Night,” a new navy-and-light-blue colorway of his signature sneaker that drops September 26 for around $160, revisiting his original silhouette as the line transitions to the updated Badbo 1.1 model. SneakerNews adds that this “Puerto Rican Night” release has been quietly appearing on retailer calendars and is positioned as another major moment in his long-running adidas partnership. Awards coverage this week has focused on how his Apple Music Super Bowl LX Halftime Show is now the most Emmy-decorated halftime performance ever. Yahoo Entertainment notes that the show has picked up seven Emmys across categories like outstanding variety special (live), directing, music direction, choreography, sound mixing, lighting design, technical direction, and camerawork, making Bad Bunny a first-time Emmy winner and putting his performance ahead of the 2022 hip-hop–heavy halftime show in total awards. In the industry press, Forbes is being cited in multiple outlets for a deeper look at how megastars such as Harry Styles are following Bad Bunny's lead in using residency-style runs—long stays in a single city—before expanding to full global tours. This “residency-first” strategy, highlighted as one of Bad Bunny's key touring innovations, is framed as a way to maximize revenue, reduce travel strain, and build tourism around a city while still delivering stadium-level shows. Touring and money stories continue beyond that. El Intransigente reports that Bad Bunny's fortune has reached around $100 million at age 31, crediting his massive world tour, extensive brand deals, and digital streams. The Orlando Sentinel recently ran a commentary tying this success to Puerto Rico's musical legacy, noting that his all-Spanish album DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS is in the race for Album, Record, and Song of the Year at the Grammys and that his 2026 tour pushed his career touring revenue past the billion-dollar mark, making him the first Latin artist to hit that milestone and underlining how global audiences embrace his unapologetically Puerto Rican sound. Family and fashion also crept into the conversation this week. Ground News, summarizing Brazilian outlet Globo, points out that his brother Bernie Martínez Ocasio has been turning heads at New York Fashion Week, walking several shows and drawing attention for his striking resemblance to Bad Bunny, with social media dubbing them “twins” and discussing how the entire Martínez Ocasio family is stepping into the spotlight. Social and streaming stats continue to show his reach. Chartmetric's latest update, refreshed September 20, notes roughly 53.5 million Instagram followers, 41.5 million TikTok followers, more than 123 million Spotify followers, and over 53 million YouTube subscribers, with hundreds of millions of monthly video views. TikTok tracking by Crawlora echoes those numbers on his official account, highlighting that even when he posts sparingly, his presence drives enormous engagement. Bad Bunny is also being pulled into broader cultural and political narratives. The New York Post, in a piece about U.S. campaign tactics, references how his name gets invoked to attract crowds, underscoring the perception that a Bad Bunny appearance can transform any event's draw. Meanwhile, The Hill uses his reaction to an AI-generated song in his cloned voice—“Demo 5: Nostalgia,” mixing fake verses from him, Daddy Yankee, and Justin Bieber—to anchor a debate about AI and Latin music. According to that report, Bad Bunny told fans in his WhatsApp channel that anyone who enjoyed the track should leave, and investigative pieces have found his catalog inside massive AI training datasets assembled without authorization, fueling ongoing lawsuits from major labels against AI music platforms. On the music side, older hits stay present in pop culture. German broadcaster Joyn features a contestant on The Voice of Germany taking on his track Tití Me Preguntó, noting that the song has crossed a billion views on YouTube and remains one of the most hyped and technically challenging reggaeton tracks to perform on television. Across all of this, the story of the week is that Bad Bunny isn't slowing down: new sneaker drops, record-breaking awards for a halftime show, pioneering touring formats, expanding family visibility in fashion, and front-line involvement in the fight over AI and artist rights. His numbers suggest he remains one of the most influential artists on earth, and press from Latin America, the U.S., and Europe are treating him as a central figure in where global music is headed next.

Limiting the side effects of cancer treatments has been an animating force in the field of oncology for many years, and there's been progress to report on that front, but what if you could target cancer tumors without using radiation or chemotherapy and instead generate heat from inside the tumor to kill cells? That's the quest of our guest today, Dr. Hadiyah-Nicole Green, whose promising research using lasers and nanoparticles to eliminate tumors received Breakthrough Device Designation from the FDA earlier this year. “The laser beam that we're using is low power like a laser pointer, and without activation by the laser, the nanoparticles are harmless. Both are targeted just at the site of the tumor so because we don't use systemic delivery, we avoid all of the systemic side effects,” she explains.Dr. Green is also the founder and president of the Ora Lee Smith Cancer Research Foundation, named for an aunt who raised her and who died of cancer without pursuing curative treatment because of her fear of the side effects. Shortly after, her aunt's husband also died of cancer, opting for treatments that took a heavy toll on his body. “At 22 years old, I saw the horrors of cancer and the horrors of cancer treatment and just felt in my heart that there has to be something better than this,” she tells host Michael Carrese.On this fascinating episode of Raise the Line from Elsevier, we'll explore the science behind Dr. Green's approach, the challenges of raising the millions of dollars needed for human clinical trials, and rethinking the current funding landscape for cancer treatments.Mentioned in this episode:Ora Lee Smith Cancer Research Foundation If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Synopsis: What does it take to turn a once-fringe scientific idea into a new approach to drug discovery—and build a biotech company around it for the long haul? In this episode of Biotech 2050, host Rahul Chaturvedi sits down with Nello Mainolfi, Founder, President & CEO of Kymera Therapeutics, to explore his journey from chemist and drug hunter to biotech founder, and the decade-long evolution of Kymera into a leader in targeted protein degradation. Nello shares how scientific curiosity first drew him to protein degradation when the modality was barely known across the industry, why he believes biotech companies must “earn the right to grow,” and how Kymera made the pivotal decision to move away from oncology and concentrate its resources on immunology. He also discusses Kymera's clinical progress, including its STAT6 and IRF5 degrader programs, and the potential for oral medicines to address pathways historically targeted by injectable biologics. Beyond the science, Nello offers lessons from his evolution as a first-time founder CEO—from hiring and retaining the right people to building trust, preserving culture as an organization scales, knowing when to go deep and when to delegate, and maintaining resilience amid the constant demands of leading a public biotech company. Tune in for a conversation about scientific conviction, disciplined company building, targeted protein degradation, and why people and culture can ultimately matter as much as the technology itself. Biography: Nello is Founder, President, and Chief Executive Officer of Kymera Therapeutics. Under his leadership, Kymera has advanced a novel modality and built a pipeline of multiple clinical stage, first-in-class degrader programs across a variety of indications; developed a best-in-class drug discovery platform; raised close to $3 billion in capital and formed strategic collaborations with major biopharmaceutical companies. Nello began his career at Novartis, leading cross-functional teams that identified several novel investigational medicines including the first-in-class, FDA approved, factor B inhibitor iptacopan. Nello studied at Imperial College, University of London and The Scripps Research Institute in California and has authored more than 100 publications and patents. He is passionate about helping teams achieve what has not been done before and scaling Kymera into a leading global biopharma company.

Toronto and southern Ontario are cleaning up after a storm brought torrential rain, hail, and ferocious winds; The Lindsay Clancy trial is prompting new conversations about postpartum psychosis and how patients and families can get support; Pioneering feminist activist and advocate for women's rights Gloria Steinem has died at 92.

Gloria Steinem, the trailblazing journalist and pioneering leader of the second-wave feminist movement, has died at the age of 92, which prompts Scoot to get into the conversation about if the men/women's wage gap is a myth and if women should have to register for Selective Services just as men do.

Host Nate Wilcox was joined again by Garrett Cash for the second episode of the Holy Roll series which we're recasting as part of our Let It Roll: From the Beginning… series, this time on the two people who essentially invented gospel composition as a published, professional craft — Charles Albert Tindley and Lucie E. Campbell. The book under discussion is “We'll Understand It Better By and By: Pioneering African American Gospel Composers,” edited by Bernice Johnson Reagon.

Is your skincare routine actually helping your skin, or are you just chasing the next quick fix? In this episode, I'm joined by Emilie Toups, founder of Toups & Co., to talk about natural skincare for aging skin and what really changes as we move through our late 30s, 40s, and beyond. We're digging into why skin can become drier and thinner as we age, how hormones and lifestyle may play a role, and why healthy skin starts with more than what you put on your face. We also break down some common skincare ingredients, including hyaluronic acid, AHAs, bakuchiol, retinol, tallow, fragrance, and those confusing "natural" and "botanical" labels you see on products. In this episode, we discuss: Why your skin changes as you age Why there's no 10-day miracle fix for aging skin How nutrition, sleep, hydration, and lifestyle support healthy skin Skincare ingredients that sound scary but can actually be beneficial Why Emilie prefers bakuchiol as an alternative to retinol What "natural fragrance" really means Why sourcing and processing matter when choosing tallow skincare How often to use facial masks and exfoliating products What to consider when choosing sunscreen and sun protection The best place to start if you want to simplify your skincare routine If you've noticed your skin changing and aren't interested in complicated routines or unrealistic anti-aging promises, this conversation will help you take a simpler, more informed approach to caring for your skin.

AI is moving fast — incredibly fast — and whether we like it or not, the game has changed.  In this week's episode, I sit down with Sam Johnsson, CEO of Farm Owners Academy. Sam, along with Michaela, Greg, and the broader FOA team, has been doing outstanding work in this space, not just exploring what AI can do, but figuring out how we can use it practically to build better businesses and better outcomes for farm owners.  We unpack what AI really means for agriculture and why I believe the opportunity in front of us is enormous.  From using ChatGPT or Claude as a smarter research partner, through to analysing data, improving decision-making, building systems, automating repetitive work and even capturing 40 years of knowledge from inside a farmer's head, the capability is extraordinary.  But we also talk about the other side of it: security, accuracy, the risk of AI being “confidently wrong”, and why good judgement, trusted advisers and knowing what good looks like still matter enormously.  Sam also shares a really useful framework for understanding where you are on the AI journey, and, more importantly, how to take the next step without feeling like you need to become a technology expert overnight.  My encouragement is simple: don't sit on the sidelines.  Get curious. Have a play. Start small. Because this technology is going to touch almost every part of business and life, and I think those who learn to use it well will have an extraordinary advantage.  I really enjoyed this conversation with Sam, and I hope it gives you the confidence and a few practical ideas to start putting AI to work in your business.  Keep winning!  Hutch & The Farm Owners Academy Team  P.S. If this episode has you thinking it's time to get more out of AI in your farm business, Sam is running a 90-minute live workshop on 21 & 22 October. You'll learn how to spot the work where AI can create genuine leverage, then set it up with the context, standards and guardrails it needs to do that work properly in your operation. See the workshop and register here.

You may have spent years building a career, growing your resources, and becoming more effective, while still wondering how those successes might serve a larger Kingdom purpose. What changes when you begin to see not only your money, but also your career, experience, time, and influence as resources God has entrusted to you? MEET YOUR GUIDE: Kurt Cornfield spent more than three decades as a financial advisor before God redirected his calling from serving clients to equipping the next generation. As a professor of financial planning at Liberty University and Director of Student and Emerging Advisors for Kingdom Advisors, Kurt has helped build one of the leading programs preparing Christian financial advisors to combine technical excellence with biblical wisdom. His own journey, from discovering Kingdom Advisors later in his career to leaving a successful practice for the classroom, reveals how understanding God's ownership and defining “enough” can reshape both a career and a life. In this conversation, Kurt shares how Christian financial advisors can help families pursue faithful stewardship, why generosity grows from contentment, and how investing in future advisors creates lasting Kingdom impact. He also offers practical insights on faith-based investing, mentoring young professionals, and using both time and resources with open hands. Through stories of God's provision and decades of experience, Kurt provides a compelling vision for financial advice as a ministry rooted in service, wisdom, and joyful generosity. Listen to discover how equipping faithful advisors today can multiply God's Kingdom impact for generations to come. WHAT YOU'LL GAIN: Viewing financial advising as Kingdom ministry Living from God's ownership of everything Defining enough to unlock generosity Equipping the next generation of Christian advisors Integrating biblical wisdom with financial planning Practicing joyful generosity through everyday stewardship Using faith-based investing to reflect biblical values Multiplying Kingdom impact through mentoring Preparing advisors to serve with excellence and humility HIGHLIGHTS: “I don't want to just crank out kids that want to go into this industry because they want to make a lot of money. I want them to go into the business for the Kingdom purpose.” “God owns it all.” “Once we've provided for our families, it's the abundance from that point on. We can be generous with it.” “It all belongs to God in the first place. It just allows us to be so much more generous and free, free to be generous.” “Our major budget item is giving.” “We need more Christians giving financial advice to Christians, but also to non-Christians because biblical wisdom works in all circumstances.” “The more that we can talk to young people about it, they get excited about it.” “We can get them started the right way. The Kingdom impact of that, the multiplication effect, is crazy.” “I don't want the legacy to be about Kurt Cornfield. I want the legacy to be about the Kingdom.” “The ripple effect on the Kingdom is something we'll never know this side of Heaven for sure.” PEOPLE, BOOKS, AND ORGS: Kingdom Advisors (see our interview with founder, Ron Blue) Ronald Blue Trust, now Blue Trust (see our interview with founder, Ron Blue) Harvest App KEEP EXPLORING Discover more conversations, ideas, and resources to help you think intentionally about generosity, stewardship, and living with an eternal perspective.

Show Notes: The Pastorate's City MeetupsJon Guerra's MusicTyler Staton on Carey Nieuwhof Leadership PodcastThe Pastorate ConferenceThe Pastorate Pastors RetreatExperience ChurchARC CanadaEpisode Notes In this conversation, Jason sits down with Jonathan Lambert, lead pastor of Experience Church in Calgary and Executive Director of ARC Canada, to talk about church planting, pioneering a church planting network in Canada and what it looks like to keep a scrappy founder's spirit through organizational growth and change. Jonathan traces his path from leading worship as a teenager in a Pentecostal church, into a worship role at Christian Life Assembly in Langley, and eventually to a defining season in Fort McMurray. There, newly stepped away from vocational ministry and unsure what was next, he had what he describes as a wake-up call in a grocery store: a profound conviction that calling belongs to every believer, not just to a platform or a job title. That shift led him and his wife Natasha into youth ministry in a local church, and then led them to plant Experience Church in Calgary in 2012.Jason and Jonathan also dig into how Experience Church came to pioneer ARC (Association of Related Churches) in Canada, now responsible for planting 25 churches nationally. Jonathan talks candidly about the tension of staying scrappy as an organization grows, the K-12 hybrid school Experience Church started to make Christian education more accessible, and the free summer camp they run for pastors' families on Vancouver Island.Jonathan makes the case for consistency over leaps of faith, and for what he calls "the spiritual six pack," daily habits of word, prayer, and worship, paired with a regular rhythm of tithing, fasting, and serving, as the real engine behind a transformational life and a healthy church.In this episode you'll hear:How growing up in a Pentecostal church shaped Jonathan's love for spiritual encounter,The grocery store moment in Fort McMurray that reframed calling as something every believer carries, Why Jonathan and Natasha turned down joining a friend's church plant in San Diego to stay in Canada and plant in Calgary instead,What it took to pioneer ARC in Canada, and the encouragement they received from the team at ARC USA, Why Experience Church started a K-12 hybrid school to make Christian education accessible for families who can't afford traditional private school,The story behind ARC Canada's free summer camp for pastors' families, and why proximity between pastoral families is its own form of pastoral care,Why leaps of faith are a subtle danger, and what Jonathan calls "the spiritual six pack," the daily and regular habits that build a steady life.PartnersWe couldn't do the work we do at The Pastorate without your generous support. We invite you to pray, share, and give towards seeding a hope-filled future for the Canadian church.

David K. Randall, author of The Monster's Bones: The Discovery of T. Rex and How It Shook Our World, recounts the historic discovery of the Tyrannosaurus rex by pioneering paleontologist Barnum Brown. The narrative traces Brown's journey from a Kansas farm to his recruitment by Henry Fairfield Osborn for the American Museum of Natural History. Driven by Gilded Age competition funded by wealthy industrialists, Brown used geological expertise and dynamite in 1902 to unearth the first T. rex fossils in Hell Creek, Montana. Despite facing devastating personal tragedy, Brown's efforts culminated in the legendary 1915 public mounting of the apex predator in New York, forever transforming the public's understanding of prehistoric life.

Ofer Shalev, co-founder and CEO of New Phase, shares his journey from leadership roles across high-tech, biotech, banking, and even serving as a fighter pilot, to pioneering a nanotechnology-based hyperthermia treatment aimed at transforming stage four cancer care. Ofer explains how the company's mission focuses on prolonging life while preserving quality of life through a systemic approach designed for metastatic disease. He discusses New Phase's progress, including treating 33 stage four patients (including at Mayo Clinic), achieving stable disease in over 60% of cases after one month follow-up, securing FDA medical device designation and IDE approval, and building a science-driven team supported by patents and peer-reviewed publications.

[00:00:09] Diane Bouis: The inventions and technologies are fascinating and so are the people who work with them. [00:00:15] Frank Jaskulke: There was a period of time where I realized, fundamentally, my job was to go hang out with really smart people that are saving lives and then do work that would help them save more lives. [00:00:28] Diane Bouis: I got into the business to save lives and it is incredibly motivating to work with people who are in that same business, saving or improving lives. [00:00:38] Duane Mancini: What better industry than where I get to wake up every day and just save people's lives. [00:00:42] Lindsey Dinneen: These are extraordinary people doing extraordinary work, and this is The Leading Difference. Hello, and welcome back to another episode of The Leading Difference podcast. I'm your host, Lindsey, and today I'm delighted to welcome as my guest, Ofer Shalev. Ofer is the co-founder and CEO of New Phase. With more than twenty-five years of management experience in the high-tech and biotech industries, Ofer leads New Phase operations and is pioneering a breakthrough nanotechnology-based treatment to transform the management of stage four cancer. Ofer combines deep technological insight with strategic business acumen. He previously served as CEO of several technology companies, including ReDent Nova, which led innovation in dental medical devices alongside his co-founder, Dr. Rafael Hof. Earlier in his career, he held senior leadership roles in the banking sector, including serving as VP of Operations, which strengthened his foundation in large-scale operational excellence. He holds an MBA from the University of Edinburgh and is recognized for guiding multidisciplinary teams, driving complex R&D initiatives, and scaling companies from concept to global market presence. At the core of his work is a clear mission: to redefine the future of cancer care by offering patients a safer, more targeted, and more effective treatment, one that not only attacks tumors but also preserves the quality of life. All right. Well, welcome to the show. I am so thankful you're here today. [00:02:09] Ofer Shalev: Thank you, Lindsey. Good evening. Very nice to meet you. [00:02:11] Lindsey Dinneen: Very nice to meet you too. So I would love, if you wouldn't mind starting off by just sharing a little bit about yourself, your background, and what led you to medtech? [00:02:25] Ofer Shalev: Well, I would say that during the year, I had extensive managerial experience across many multiple sector, including industry, high-tech, banking, and obvious-obviously life science. I have also to mention that about fifty years ago, in my experience I was a fighter pilot, pilot in the Israeli Air Force. It was, again, about fifty years ago. I would say that it probably significantly shape who am I today. I mean, it's developed my ability to to take a calculated risk, for example, or to act quickly and precisely to plan ahead, to build contingency plans. So all that kind of thing that probably was very relevant to the time I, I w- I used to serve in the Israeli Air Force, but also very relevant to the, to the industry. Okay? And furthermore, I would like to say that probably I am highly motivated by challenge. It, it's make my day. In addition, I am a father to four children and a grandfather of seven grandchildren. And I do hope that at the end, I will have about twelve grandchildren. So, the kids have still to work about it. Yeah. And I would say that you asked about myself, so probably I have a very, very strong belief in the path, in the way that I'm choosing. It's I would say, enabl-enabling to, to overcome about the difficulties, mainly when you're looking for challenge, especially in, in a new and unfamiliar field, like in our case of New Phase And furthermore, I, I, I, I truly believe in the word "never give up." You will find solution to everything. Never give up. I like very much as I mentioned before, to, to meet a challenge and to overcome our challenge many times by breaking some problem into pieces and then to assemble it again. Furthermore, I would say we, we met many, many problems in our life. I, I think that we have to focus about the solution, not about the problems. You cannot change problems. It's happened. But let's try to find and, and to think about how to find the right solution to it. And I would say that I, I f- I feel very, very, very good to to operate or to, to function in a turbulent area. I mean, I like it very much. I, I know that not, not, not anyone like it, but I feel very good in, in this area. [00:04:59] Lindsey Dinneen: Wonderful. Well, thank you for sharing a bit about your background. I have so many questions, but I would love to actually learn about what you're doing right now with New Phase, because I know you're passionate about it. There's, there's a lot that goes into cancer research and treatment, and I know that that's been such a challenge for so many years, and I love the fact that your company is really diving into that challenge and tackling it. And I was just wondering if you could explain where the concept of New Phase came from, and what exactly makes your company so unique in this space? [00:05:39] Ofer Shalev: So the, the idea came that it was 14, 14, 15 years ago, while me and my partner, Dr. Rafael Hof, we were involved with some other company, and after that at that time his mother, her name was Sarah, she wa- she had lung cancer. She passed away. And during that time, we have a very, I mean, many time conversation about the disease. No, no, no, none one, none one of us is, was oncologist, okay, by training. But we have many, many discussion about the treatment what are the relevant treatment that are available, et cetera, et cetera. And after she passed away we, I mean, Rafi, who is a great technology guy, came with this idea of nanoparticles and hyperthermia, and we start to work about it. Again, we have to learn, both of us, we have to learn a new area of technology, of biology, of chemistry, of physics, engineering, regulation, everything. And it was not only that we have read and learn about it, but we decide al-also to, let's say, to, to jump into the pool, into the water. We put each one of them, each one of us put some money. We hire some chemist. We also hire from one of the university in Israel some space. Like you, I mean, usually, I, I believe it's the right way to develop a company. I mean, to start and building it, the company, in the garage, okay? Right. And, and, and sure, you have, you have to-- you cannot just think about it, you have to, to, to do something. And the outcome was actually the proof of concept. We show in the in vitro, under microscope, how some very, very primitive nanoparticles were being irradiate, caused damage to the cancer cells. And that was the time that we founded New Phase. I truly believe that it's the right approach that first you have by yourself to, to deliver, to show the proof of concept, then go to investor and try to convince them to, to invest in your in your company. So that was what we have done. It was a very, very long way. I mean, the company was founded just 13 years ago. The vision didn't change. I mean, from the beginning, the idea was to prolong life of cancer patient, and in order-- and in addition to maintain the quality of life. At that time we used the word of chronic treatment or managing the disease, and many of the people that we met, skeptical one said, "But you, you don't cure the disease." So we explained that as we see in the next twenty years, nobody will cure the disease, but for the meantime, people have to live. [00:08:35] Lindsey Dinneen: Hmm. [00:08:36] Ofer Shalev: Now, the vision is still today. It was implemented into a technology. But yes, the technology was changed several time along the year, but the vision is still here, and that is, that is the, the outcome as of today. We already treated thirty-three patient with stage four, six of them in a Mayo Clinic, very distinguished hospital. I mean, I would say ranked number one worldwide. A great cooperation with them. I would say that till the summertime, we will treat another six patient, and after we move to the feasibility study, where we will have to choose few indication, and we will add another to a US hospital to join to the feasibility study. It become a product. As I mentioned, we treated already thirty-three patient. We have about fourteen patents that already granted. We have about, since we are-- we truly believe that we are in a deep science company, so we truly believe in the, in the scientifics based evidence, and we already publish nine peer review scientific articles. We have done a lot of work and success with FDA. First, and again, it was a breakthrough idea to, to succeed and get designation of medical device. Although we inject infused nanoparticle into the body, but we convinced the FDA that although we infuse nanoparticle, hence our mode of action, primary mode of action is actually engineering one or physical one, and therefore we were, we were designated as a medical device, which again save a lot of budget and, and time while reaching to the clinical study. And then later on, we got the IDE, I mean, the, the approval to start clinical study in the US. So we have done a very, very long way, and I would say that it's very satisfying while seeing today that first of all, we have a product, not only idea, and the vision is still here. I mean, what we can see that we... many of the patient, although it in the early feasibility study, and the main goal is to achieve safety and to show it's non-toxic. So even though we succeeded in more than about sixty percent of the cases we treated in nine different indication of cancer to reach to a stable disease. Let's say after one month of follow-up, the tumor metastasis are the same size, and there were no new lesion during that time. So, yeah, we-- I would say that it start, it start-- it seems that we start to reach to the, to the real game in the feasibility study where we will focus about two to three indication, and the idea is to treat patient for at least, let's say, six months, and to show that we can, we can keep them in a status of stable disease. [00:11:44] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah. [00:11:45] Ofer Shalev: Further, furthermore, all the patients that we got, all of them are metastatic stage, let's say stage four, which exhausted all other treatment. So many time, you can see that in the retrospective data, before the joining to the study, the tumors or metastases have a progression rate of so and so percent per month, and after our treatment is dramatically reduced or even stopped. So, a lot of enthusiasm with the current status. [00:12:18] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah, a lot of enthusiasm and a lot of hope. I, I love what you're doing because, yeah, as you said, I mean, at that point, people probably feel so stuck and hopeless. And so to be able to learn that there is technology that is being actively worked on that can... [00:12:36] Ofer Shalev: Yeah. [00:12:36] Lindsey Dinneen: ...really help them [00:12:38] Ofer Shalev: Yeah, yeah. We are-- you also ask what, what we-- what, what is the difference that we bring to the market? [00:12:42] Lindsey Dinneen: Mm-hmm. [00:12:44] Ofer Shalev: So the hyperthermia is well-known for many, many years to be a useful way to treat cancer. Okay? Because cancer don't have resistance to hyperthermia. And let's skip about all the biology factor, but this is a well, well-written evidence in, in the literature. So, but usually all the current hyperthermia methodology is a local treatment, meaning you have to define where the tumor is, CT, MRI, whatever, and to try, try to heat this tumor either by infrared or with-- or inject directly nanoparticles into the tumor, et cetera, et cetera. What we are offering is a totally a new approach of treating systemically in tumors at stage four. Let's say in many cases, you don't know even where the tumors are in the volume of treatment, meaning we treat the torso area. It's not that we are trying to find tumor by tumor. No. We're treating the whole area of the torso, and by that we can destroy the tumor, which in stage four are localized in, in different area in it. So this is one thing. The other thing that I would say that the stage four mainly people that exhausted other treatment is really can be considered as a unmet need. And that's, that's the population that we are focused about. That, that's the population that we are focused about. [00:14:11] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah. Yeah, that is really incredible to hear. I, I love what you're doing. I'm curious, as you've gone about this process and f- you know, 13 years worth of learnings and growing as a company, what is something that's really surprised you along the way? [00:14:34] Ofer Shalev: Surprise? Well, you know, I said before, when, when you, when you start this this journey with a deep s-- belief in yourself and in your team, you're not really surprised. [00:14:49] Lindsey Dinneen: Hmm. [00:14:50] Ofer Shalev: Yeah, I mean, no, there is a lot of surprise. I mean, we, we went in an area which nobody stepped before in the, in those days. Nobody stepped before. But I would say it was obvious to me at least that okay, we are thinking about the right approach. We are trying to find our way. We invest a lot about trying to read whatever is relevant. We are speaking with oncologists, learn from them in many time about the failure, and try to make sure not to do it. So I'm not surprised. I'm very happy. And again, it's not... It was not by accident. On one hand, a very strong belief, and on the other hand, in-depth learning every piece of knowledge that we were able to collect [00:15:33] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah. Yeah, that's so important, and I appreciate you saying it that way. I think intentionality is such a key component of leadership, and this is some of the conversations that I'm enjoying having lately is, h- and I'd love to get your input, is how do you go about intentionally creating the right team, the right vision, and the right culture to support the fact that you don't have to be surprised by things? You get to be happy, but you have the right framework in place. [00:16:08] Ofer Shalev: So I would say that in terms of the team, it was changed and replaced along the way. [00:16:15] Lindsey Dinneen: Mm-hmm. [00:16:17] Ofer Shalev: At the beginning... By the way, even today we have we have, we have twenty-four employees. Six of them are PhD Along the way, since we need people that know how to read articles, how to analyze article, et cetera. So I would say that we have in a, in a, in a company of about six, seven employees, three or four of them were PhD. There was a lot of self-learning to do. Later on, we start to make, "Okay, we have to develop. We have to build a product." So obviously, we, we, we mixed this team with people that came f- with some experience from the industry. Furthermore, experience from the medical device industry. Okay? So I would say along the time the, the, the population in New Phase become to be more heterogeneous. [00:17:08] Lindsey Dinneen: Hmm. Mm-hmm. [00:17:10] Ofer Shalev: Because really we-- you-- I mean, currently we have a product, so we need people about regulation, about quality, people that know very well engineering, people that have a idea about operation and not only researcher. But again, at, at the beginning, all, all our employee came from the... I mean, we, we, we, we re recruit about I think three or four PhD at the beginning to start with, and it will change along the way. Yeah. Now about-- you ask about leadership. So, I would say that I ca- I can see the leadership not only about, about leading people, but also about pushing your vision. Okay? Because again at the beginning, an idea of changing the cancer disease into a manageable disease, it was not so well accepted idea. Anyone ask about curing, but we keep saying, "No, there is no, there's no g- currently, there's not a real good chance of curing. Let's focus about prolonging life." Nowadays, it's common language. You can see from any, any drug company discuss the issue of manage- manageable disease. But when we start with this vision, it was very hard to convince people about it, and obviously many of them said in a very skeptical way, "You will not make it." [00:18:29] Lindsey Dinneen: Mm. [00:18:29] Ofer Shalev: So this part of the leadership as well, "Okay, I heard you. Let's, let's meet at the end of the day and we'll see what hap- who, who is the right one." So, yeah. So I would say that in our case, leadership is, is mainly to, to maintain the vision, to push the vision, to develop the vision. Partially it's about, a- about employees, sure, because at the end you have to recruit employees that will implement this vision into a technology, into a product But I would say that in a company like New Phase, the, the leadership is as more than 50% is about the vision. [00:19:11] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah. Yeah, pushing the vision forward. I, I really appreciate that. I, you know, you had so many things at the beginning that you were talking about that I really appreciated. You talked about never giving up, overcoming difficulties, and loving challenges, and I think all of those are critical, of course, as an entrepreneur. But I'm also particularly curious about your h- you mentioned that you break down challenges into pieces and then rebuild, and I'm curious, where did that philosophy come from and how do you practically implement it? [00:19:48] Ofer Shalev: Frankly speaking, I don't know from where it came. No, I don't know. I mean, you know, with... Du-during the way, I, I, I had many, many chance to, to, to rethinking about some problem that we solved, and I asked myself, "How the hell we know what to do?" I, I don't know, frank- In, in many times, I would say that main-ma-mainly because we try to simplify the problem to pieces, and then we have a breakthrough id-idea about it. It is not-- I mean, the methodology is about breaking the problem into pieces. How to assemble it again, this is a breakthrough. I don't know how to explain it. [00:20:32] Lindsey Dinneen: Okay. [00:20:33] Ofer Shalev: really. [00:20:33] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah, but do you find that maybe taking it apart and so probab- maybe part of it is, I wonder, you know, when you've got a challenge, it feels big and insurmountable, and you can't make any progress versus if you break it down and you go, "Okay, yeah, maybe this as a whole feels t- like too much, but what about this one little piece that if I can overcome this, then it will push me forward in overcoming the ultimate challenge?" I wonder if it's partly... [00:21:02] Ofer Shalev: It, it, it might be, it might be the situation. It's simple to, to deal with a, with a simple or with a, with a partial challenge, partial partial problems. And then it says, "Okay, I, I, I solved this issue. Let's try to solve another issue." And all of a sudden, you figure out that, "Hey, I have the full picture. I solve it." [00:21:23] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah. That's, that's really cool. Okay. So, you know, you've had an amazing career, and not just within this space of course, but before that, and I'm just wondering if maybe especially along this particular journey with New Phase, are there any moments that really stand out to you as affirming, "Wow, I am in the right place at the right time in the right industry"? [00:21:54] Ofer Shalev: Yes. I, I, you know, I, I think that it's... No, it will, it will par-- it will par-- I, I will answer you partially. I mean, once we decided to founder the company and that myself and my partner, Dr. Rafael Hof, we have after another company that we, we had, and we-- And when he came with this idea, I thought to myself, "If there are two entrepreneur worldwide that are able to deal with that problem, it's probably the two of us." Yeah. Ab-absolutely. Yeah. [00:22:31] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah. [00:22:32] Ofer Shalev: Because the way that we work together, the w- the way that we each one of each one of us cover different area, how to build this kind of a crazy idea. I would say that really just only, you know, two people that are crazy enough and can work so well together can deal and succeed in this task. So this is the kind of, of, of of memory that I have from the beginning of the company. [00:22:57] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah. I love that. That's, that's really cool. You, you know, you mentioned also at the beginning that some of your experience as a pilot was really critical in helping you learn different skills or disciplines that help you succeed throughout your career and today. Do you mind just talking a little bit more about some of the things that you still hold onto as really important lessons learned? [00:23:24] Ofer Shalev: Okay, know, to be in a, in a cockpit of a fighter i-- of a, of a fighter airplane, I mean, just ones that was there can, can understand what I'm speaking about. But it's a who- the whole way of thinking. So I would say that from time to time, when I have quite, quite a big challenge, I, I, I imagine to myself that I'm in the cockpit, okay? In order to, to think the same way that you used to think fifty years ago. Okay? Now with, wi-with, with regarding with regarding it to to some advice, okay? To to some to some other entrepreneur, let's call it this way. So, I would say that first of all, choose a real breakthrough idea. Not an idea that, okay that probably someone else did before or will do it after-- will, will make it after you. Try to find a real breakthrough idea to... Because, you know, at the end, you, you sacrifice a, a big piece of your life about it. [00:24:24] Lindsey Dinneen: Mm-hmm. [00:24:25] Ofer Shalev: So try to find something which is real, real something. This is one. Then you have to have a very strong backbone and remain committed to your vision. Yes, you might change the technology, that's okay, but you have to be committed to your vision. And furthermore, probably many times along the way, you will hear from people you will not succeed, it's the wrong way, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. So nowadays, when I hear this kind of a voice, I say, "Why don't you open the startup of yourself? If you know it so well, why don't you open? Because you don't have the courage?" [00:25:06] Lindsey Dinneen: Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. [00:25:08] Ofer Shalev: And yes, courage is, is, is, is another component which is very important to entrepreneur that choose a way how to change the world. [00:25:18] Lindsey Dinneen: Mm. Yeah. I love that. Thank you for sharing. Okay, so pivoting the conversation a little bit just for fun, imagine that you were to be offered a million dollars to teach a master class on anything you want. Could be within your industry, doesn't have to be. What would you choose to teach? [00:25:40] Ofer Shalev: I don't know how to do it, but I will say it in other ways. I probably to, to, to, to teach people how to avoid or what to do while you are in a dead end. [00:25:52] Lindsey Dinneen: Hmm. Okay. Do you wanna elaborate a little bit? 'Cause I'm curious. [00:26:00] Ofer Shalev: I think that, that, that your ability really to believe in yourself is a key factor. [00:26:05] Lindsey Dinneen: Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. [00:26:06] Ofer Shalev: Your ability to, to free your mind, not to focus about the current problem, but to free your mind, going outside and try to find some other idea is quite important one. [00:26:18] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah. [00:26:18] Ofer Shalev: Yeah, those kinds of things. Probably we have to think about this kind of a masterclass. [00:26:23] Lindsey Dinneen: That would be a great masterclass, yeah. Okay. All right. [00:26:27] Ofer Shalev: By the way, I, I truly believe that in order... I mean, at least that's what I'm doing. But I, I besides that I'm working very hard, I try to read many books. It might be biography, it might be historical novel, it might be by... it might be a thriller. I try to be very, very diverse in what I am reading. I believe it's, it's just fruitful my mind, and not to focus about only about some scientific articles. [00:26:56] Lindsey Dinneen: That's... I love that. That's great. All right. And how do you wish to be remembered after you leave this world? [00:27:06] Ofer Shalev: Well, it's not something that I particularly concerned about it, truly. I don't, I, I don't... I, I, I will say fir- I will say something else. I truly believe that true leader are not focused about what people will remember about them. It is important that the vision will stay. It's important that a father and mother, or children that have cancer in the family will be able to live longer life with a better quality of life. It's much more important if people know, "Hey, Ofer Shalev bring this technology to the market." [00:27:45] Lindsey Dinneen: Mm-hmm. [00:27:46] Ofer Shalev: That, that the way I see it. I mean, I don't care too much what will people remember after I leave this world. [00:27:53] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah. No, that's, that's beautiful. I love that. Okay, and then final question: What is one thing that makes you smile every time you see or think about it? [00:28:04] Ofer Shalev: Well, that is very, that is very easy. You know, when you have so many, so many grandchildren, so, to hear the questions "Why did, why did it happen?" "Why the bird is flying so high?" The, the truth and simplicity of children and the way that they are thinking, that's really something that make, I think, everybody smiling about it. [00:28:28] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah. That's so fun, and I couldn't agree more. I I have a few nieces and a nephew, and getting to, to sort of see the world again through their eyes and perspective is just really fun. It's just, it's joyful. [00:28:44] Ofer Shalev: Yeah, it's a great chance to hear about a simple way of, of how the world should, should be. [00:28:49] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah. Curiosity. I love the never-ending curiosity. [00:28:52] Ofer Shalev: And asking many questions. It's very-- I mean, asking question is, is a great, is a great benefit. [00:28:58] Lindsey Dinneen: Yes. [00:28:58] Ofer Shalev: Ask as many questions as you can. [00:29:00] Lindsey Dinneen: Your whole life. [00:29:01] Ofer Shalev: Yeah. [00:29:02] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah. Excellent. Well, this has been such a great recording. I really appreciate you sharing your your vision especially about New Phase and where you hope that the company will go and, and the lives that it'll impact. And I know you're well on your way, and I just wanna thank you for not listening to the people who said, "This is not gonna happen," or were trying to discourage you. I'm just so thankful that you're doing what you're doing. And we are honored to be making a donation on your behalf as a thank you for your time today to Feeding America, which works to end hunger in the United States by partnering with food banks, food pantries, and local food programs to bring food to people facing hunger, and they also advocate for policies that create long term solutions to hunger. So thank you for choosing that organization to support. So, really appreciate you being here today and just really appreciate everything you're doing to change lives for a better world. [00:30:00] Ofer Shalev: Thank you very much, Lindsey. [00:30:02] Lindsey Dinneen: All right. You too. Bye. [00:30:04] Dan Purvis: The Leading Difference is brought to you by Velentium Medical.

William Orbit, the pioneering DJ and music producer, through his work with synthesizers and new studio technology he combined electronic dance music with pop, to create chart toppers. He grew up surrounded by classical music. His epiphany came when he discovered Tonto's Expanding Head Band, an electronic duo and so began his passion for electronic music. The DJ and A&R executive Pete Tong tells us his story.Wang Quanying was believed to be the last surviving female participant in China's Long March, one of the most significant events in modern Chinese history. The historian and film maker Shuyun Sun learned about the Long March at school and many years later walked the 6,000 mile route herself, where she met women like Wang who told her they'd tie a belt around their stomachs so they wouldn't feel hunger.Lady Hornby was the broadcast journalist who championed women's rights. After hitting her own glass ceiling at work she set about making sure other women had an easier path to the top. As a founding member of the 300 Group, she promoted women's participation in politics and public life. And, as a reporter working for Woman's Hour, she took on the then Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, as her daughter Victoria Hornby explains.“A good trainer can hear a horse speak to him. A great trainer can hear him whisper.” The words of Monty Roberts, the Californian horse psychologist who used gentle persuasion rather than harsh punishment to get the best out of his horses. His autobiography “The Man Who Listens to Horses” sold six million copies and he became a close adviser to Queen Elizabeth II. As his friend and fellow horse behaviourist Kelly Marks told Matthew, when he first began promoting his techniques, he was met with widespread scepticism.Presenter: Matthew Bannister Producer: Ribika Moktan Assistant Producer: Catherine Powell Researcher: Jesse Edwards Editor: Andrea KennedyARCHIVE: The First Time With..., BBC 6 Music, 26/02/2023; Front Row, Radio 4, 11/08/2010; Spotlight, BBC Archive, 29/09/1966; Assignment, China's Long March, 04/09/2000; Women's Hour, Radio 4, 11/12/1986; Women's Hour, Radio 4, 23/09/1976; Monty Roberts, Q.E.D.: Talking Horses, BBC One, 01/08/1995; Monty Roberts, Lowri, BBC Two, 09/09/1999.

What does it take to move acute care physical therapy research from the journal page to the bedside? In this episode, Dr. Leo Arguelles and Dr. Daniel Young sit down with Dr. Barbara “Barb” Smith, associate professor of physical therapy at the University of Florida, clinician-scientist with more than 25 years of ICU experience, and recipient of the 2026 APTA Acute Care Lecture Award. Barb reflects on how acute care research has evolved from a time when PTs often contributed to studies without leading them to a future in which clinicians, educators and scientists shape the questions that matter most. She explains why research in complex hospital environments remains difficult, from varied patient populations and unit cultures to small single-site studies and the long delay between publication and clinical adoption. The conversation also explores why research should function as a team sport. Barb shares the value of multi-site collaboration, early partnerships with frontline clinicians and hospital leaders, and sustained mentorship for emerging researchers. Drawing on her work in respiratory strength training, she shows how clinically relevant questions can grow into evidence that changes practice. Listeners will leave with a clearer view of how collaboration, communication and curiosity can strengthen acute care research—and ultimately improve patient care. Show Notes Today's Guests: Barbara Smith PT, PhD bksmith@ufl.edu X: ilikebigbreaths Guest Quotes: 16:24 “ But we still have some challenges, I think in the area of acute care research. Number one it’s hard to do , right?… And all of that noise can muddle up what might be a very, helpful or clear efficacy signal or rehabilitation signal. “Ah, this works.” But if we have all this other noise, we might not see that treatment effect. And so those are some threats sometimes to designing and developing and implementing research in this setting.” 18:54 “ Scientists, we’re not always the best conversationalists. And so disseminating our message, we use a lot of jargon, we use complicated terms…  so there’s a dissemination issue, there’s a consumption issue where where maybe people are getting their information from different resources, and are those resources vetted scientifically?” 27:11 “So this is my pie in the sky dream…I love the fact that this academy is supportive of science and moving our evidence base forward, and have been so supportive of providing some grant funding through the foundation. I would love to pull all that money together and give it in one big project to a bunch of groups of people. And then we do this together.” Rapid Responses:   When you’re out biking, Barb, how often do alligators come into the conversation?  If you’re from Florida, never. If you’re not from Florida, every time.  You know you’re an acute care or an ICU provider when…  When your weekend and holiday schedule is more complicated than your fantasy football spreadsheet.

Widely regarded as the first professional woman writer in English literature, Aphra Behn (1640-1689) is best known for her plays and her novel Oroonoko, she's been an inspiration to countless writers across the ages.This archive episode, first released in October 2017, was selected as part of a ten-episode series by Misha Glenny. In the episode, Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the life and times of Behn, who made her name and her living as a playwright, poet and writer of fiction during the Restoration. Virginia Woolf wrote of her: 'All women together, ought to let flowers fall upon the grave of Aphra Behn... for it was she who earned them the right to speak their minds'. Behn may well have spent some of her early life in Surinam, the setting for her novel Oroonoko, and there are records of her working in the Netherlands as a spy for Charles II. She was loyal to the Stuart kings and refused to write a poem on the coronation of William of Orange. She was regarded as an important writer in her lifetime and inspired others to write but fell out of favour for two centuries after her death when her work was seen as too bawdy, the product of a disreputable age.With Janet ToddFormer President of Lucy Cavendish College, Cambridge UniversityRos BallasterProfessor of 18th Century Literature at Mansfield College, University of OxfordandClaire Bowditch Post-doctoral Research Associate in English and Drama at Loughborough University Producer: Simon Tillotson.

Moving Beyond the Overton Window in Mainstream ChristianityDan explores the concept of the "Overton window” , the range of ideas considered socially acceptable and argues that it applies not only to politics but also to mainstream Christianity. He suggests that influential voices and platforms can shape theological groupthink, often causing those who explore unconventional or emerging perspectives to face criticism, marginalization, or misunderstanding. According to Dan, God frequently works outside these accepted boundaries, calling spiritual pioneers into unfamiliar territory. He contends that such individuals may encounter opposition, slander, or attempts to silence them, which he associates with a religious spirit, including intimidation he identifies with Leviathan.  Rather than encouraging suspicion or "witch hunting," Duval emphasizes the importance of discernment rooted in Christ-centered fruit and biblical principles. He points to examples such as the growing acceptance of the fivefold ministry and the broader willingness to discuss topics like the Nephilim compared to attitudes in 2010. He also shares a personal testimony of someone experiencing freedom from addiction in connection with his ministry property.Ultimately, Duval encourages believers to follow where they perceive the Holy Spirit is leading, even when it challenges conventional thinking. He concludes that, as the end of the age approaches, God is accelerating unprecedented works through His people, calling Christians to remain spiritually discerning, courageous, and open to His direction.

In this episode we speak to Harry Anagnostaras-Adams, Founder and Executive Chairman of KEFI Gold and Copper. Harry has spent more than four decades in the mining industry, building companies and advancing projects across Australia, the Middle East and Africa. With KEFI, he is now developing the Tulu Kapi Gold Project in Ethiopia and maintaining exposure to Saudi Arabia's rapidly growing mining sector.   Harry offers a unique perspective on financing projects in emerging jurisdictions, navigating geopolitical challenges and creating long-term value. We also explore his remarkable journey, the lessons learned from operating across multiple continents, and his outlook for KEFI and the wider mining industry. KEY TAKEAWAYS Building direct, long-term relationships and being present in the country are essential for navigating local political, regulatory, and security challenges. By following specific geological formations—such as VMS deposits and greenstone belts—companies can unlock massive, previously untapped mineral potential. Innovative financing structures—such as combining project debt, royalties, and preference shares—allow major developments to proceed while keeping equity dilution remarkably low. Maintaining strict ethical standards and transparency ensures resilience against geopolitical instability, regulatory hurdles, and localised conflicts. BEST MOMENTS "The hallmark of our decision and style was that we would move over to that part of the world, roll up our sleeves, and get amongst it on the ground." "When you've got one or two [geologists] that have found a number of deposits in their lifetime, you know you've got a precious person." "Never do anything that can compromise you... if you've never been compromised, there's nothing to worry about. You can always lie straight in bed and have a good night's sleep." "In the first ten years of KEFI's existence, we made discoveries, and then we literally stopped exploration. And now that we're in a position to launch development, we're restarting."

In 1957, a terrified 17-year-old girl lay on a Harlem kitchen table undergoing an illegal, backstreet abortion. Nearly dying from complications, she was rushed to a hospital ward where nurses badgered her and demanded to know what she had done. That teenager was Frances M. Beal.Long before she would write the seminal 1969 manifesto "Double Jeopardy: To Be Black and Female" or co-found the Third World Women's Alliance, Beal was navigating the violent realities of being young, Black and female in America. In this episode of Berkeley Talks, Ula Taylor, a UC Berkeley professor and chair of African American studies, presents her latest book project, which reconstructs Beal's political radicalization brick by brick. Blending first- and third-person narrative, Taylor explores how Beal's life — from the pressures and policing of her early years to unappreciated domestic labor and single motherhood — helped shape her pioneering work in social justice feminism.“Black feminism for Fran was not a politic that came from one experience or one moment in her life,” Taylor says. “It was a culmination of the brick of girlhood frustrations, the brick of early adolescent battles, the brick of teenage gendered expectation, the brick of abortions, the brick of sexual pleasure, the brick of housework and the brick of single motherhood. All and so many other theoretical and practical life bricks informed the construction of her Black feminist house grounded in social justice feminism.” Taylor's lecture, which took place on Feb. 19, was hosted by Berkeley's Social Science Matrix and co-sponsored by the Department of Gender and Women's Studies and the Department of African American Studies.Watch the lecture, listen to the episode and read the transcript on UC Berkeley News (news.berkeley.edu/podcasts/berkeley-talks).Music by by HoliznaCC0.Photo by Howard Petrick/The Militant.

Patrick Fabian and his two sons Andrew and Stephen operate a third and fourth-generation farm in Southern Alberta, Canada. Farming on 100% irrigated land, they specialize in producing a diverse range of pedigreed seeds, including cereals, flax, corn, alfalfa, canola, and peas. Their operation encompasses roughly a thousand acres and revolves around cultivating high-quality seeds that boast robust germination and exceptional vigor.   In their transition to regenerative agriculture, the Fabians drastically reduced upfront synthetic nitrogen, opting instead to spoon-feed crops with highly efficient foliar applications of solubilized urea. By combining biological seed treatments like compost tea with targeted carbon sources and micronutrients, they successfully eliminated the need for conventional fungicides and insecticides. Their practices focus heavily on maximizing net income per acre and enhancing soil biology rather than chasing sheer volume.   In this episode, John and the Fabians discuss: The efficiency gains achieved by switching from upfront soil nitrogen to foliar applications of solubilized urea. The operational shift from chasing maximum gross yield to prioritizing net income per acre. Replacing conventional synthetic seed treatments with compost tea and biological inoculants. How microbially active soils produce heavier pedigreed seeds with superior cold-stress vigor. Utilizing plant sap analysis and tissue testing to address precise nutritional needs. The remarkable crop resilience and yield recovery observed after severe early-stage hail damage. How Advancing Eco Agriculture helps growers make data-driven decisions through sap testing.

Talk about a fresh perspective! Doug Osborne (Osborne Lab, Snowden Waterfowl Center of Excellence, University Arkansas Monticello) and I spent a week together not only hunting ducks but, importantly, laying groundwork for first-ever duck banding and GPS studies in Argentina. Why's it needed there, what's really known about Argentina ducks, their movements and behaviors? How's the habitat compare to North America--and what might be learned of benefit to us? What are the challenges and cultural barriers, and how's the North American Model look from south of the equator?

Stanford, Loopt, and Y Combinator. Guest Author: Keach Hagey. Altman's career accelerated at Stanford, where he dropped out to co-found Loopt, a pioneering location-tracking startup. Although Loopt achieved visibility—including a famous appearance at an Apple event alongside Steve Jobs—it was financially a disappointment, selling for parts after the 2008 crisis. Following a period of global "backpacking" and self-reflection, Altman discovered his "superpower" in investing, mentored by Peter Thiel.

Influenced by a visit to SpaceX, Altman adopted Elon Musk's "missionary" approach, viewing startups as world-changing missions rather than mere businesses. During this time, he also championed radical social concepts like Georgism and Universal Basic Income (UBI), writing extensively on how mass AI equity could eventually be shared to restructure society. 3JANUARY 1941
