Yesterday a judge dropped all charges, including murder, against former Philly police officer Mark Dial over the August 14 shooting death of non-compliant suspect Eddie Irizarry. The immediate result was rioting and widespread looting throughout Philadelphia. We have the full unedited body worn camera (BWC) footage of both officers involved in the encounter with Irizarry, as well as local surveillance camera footage, and we'll break those down in today's Law of Self Defense Show.Should the charges have been dismissed? Was this a lawful use of deadly force by Dial?

This is part 1 of 2 of our discussion/reading of Duncan v. Bonta.Last week US District Court (Federal) Judge Roger Benitez handed down a ruling that California's ban on standard capacity magazines for firearms is unconstitutional.While this conclusion is simply obvious common sense, Judge Benitez was kind enough to explain the underlying constitutional reasoning behind this conclusion in a wonderfully-written 75-page decision that's loaded to the gills with citation to recent US Supreme Court Second Amendment jurisprudence--thus greatly strengthening this ruling from rational reversal.Become a Law of Self Defense Member for JUST 99 CENTS!Not yet a Law of Self Defense Member?

Hello everyone; it's Dr. Shirley! Welcome to Fifteen Minutes of F.A.B., a segment of the Forever F.A.B. podcast, where I review products, services, experiences, and frankly, whatever-- in 15 minutes or less. If the full-length podcast is a couture dress, then FFAB is a button-down Henley paired with leather leggings. If you don't have time to tune in to my full-length podcast, check out Fifteen Minutes of F.A.B. Some have considered it truth in beauty, plastic surgery secrets, or as a nerdy or academic take on wellness and beauty… with a dash of fashion. Consider it what you may, my aim is to engage you as a credible and authoritative voice in most, if not all, aspects of beauty and wellness, with a dash of fashion—including products, wellness services, technologies, new scientific research, and innovations in plastic surgery. As the founder of Holistic Plastic Surgery, my approach to beauty is through a lens of wellness, that is grounded in science, backed by medical study and research, strengthened by clinical experience, and bolstered by surgical training with the use of principles and techniques of plastic surgery. And, there's my love of fashion, of course! I feel uniquely qualified to talk with you about beauty, wellness, aesthetics, and plastic surgery, as well as products and services within those spaces,… not only because of my extensive training and expansive background, but also because I am one of you! Many of the human issues around aging and being a fierce FAB woman as well as an agent for positive change-- I live these, too. You are not alone. Together, we can help the world to become a more beautiful Forever FAB place! So, that said let's get started. [Start the timer (timer sound)!] In this new year, I've decided that it will be one of expansion and discovery. So, I will explore all sorts of topics—near and possibly farfetched, while still focusing on the topics that make the Forever FAB podcast… well, FABulous, namely fashion, the art of living well, and beauty. As part of my philosophy of holistic plastic surgery, where I believe that beauty emanates from within, wellness plays an integral role in my practice. This goes for many aspects of life that help you to live in grace and beauty, including nutrition, exercise, products, technologies, mind-body, spirit, and science.   Main Points: The average life expectancy to date for men and women in the US is 77.28 years. Many factors affect how long you live. These include, but are not limited to: Age Genetics Epigenetics Lifestyle Gender Access to health care Diet Access to clean food Access to clean water Exercise Environment: crime? Education Social support Socioeconomic status And more It can be said that if you do all the right things from the list I mentioned, you know-- eat well, get enough sleep, manage stress-- the FAB Five rules of a Beautiful life-- then you may increase your lifespan. But, this is not guaranteed. There are also factors that have been shown to reduce or shorten your life. These include, but are not limited to: inadequate sleep lack of exercise & inactivity unhealthy diet lack of social support & loneliness Unmanaged stress Smoking Alcohol abuse Drug abuse And so much more. The first question to ask is: do you love your life? Then ask yourself, do you wish to live longer? If yes, then do you have a sense of purpose, one that contributes to the greater good? There is significant interest not only in age management, but also in longevity. According to the Healthy Longevity Clinic, “The definition of longevity is living a longer and healthier life. It means how long a person is going to live, and how healthy his later life will be. You can also understand the term longevity as the description of the state when a person lives beyond their average life expectancy.” (https://www.healthylongevity.clinic/blog/what-is-longevity- definition#:~:text=The%20definition%20of%20longevity%20is,average%20life%20expectancy %20(1).) Research abounds on longevity-- what influences it, how to improve it… Is it even possible for us all to expect to live beyond 100, even to 120? Scanning the titles of the most current research on longevity, the National Institute on Aging (NIA) highlights these papers over the past year: July 20, 2023 Study of fruit flies finds hunger causes brain changes that slow aging May 03, 2023 Immune system profiles of extremely long-lived people April 13, 2023 Aging linked to RNA-length imbalance February 23, 2023 Personality and mortality linked to number of mitochondrial DNA in blood February 09, 2023 Fetal exposure to Great Depression economic hardship linked to accelerated aging December 22, 2022 Anti-insulin protein linked to longevity in queen ants December 08, 2022 Optimism linked to longevity and well-being in two recent studies October 04, 2022 Adopting healthy habits: What do we know about the science of behavior change? September 20, 2022 Leisure activities may improve longevity for older adults The NIA's most recent paper, entitled Today's Research on Aging, Issue 34, highlights the following points: “Older adults in their 90s who are resilient—who can adapt positively under adverse circumstances—have a much higher likelihood of living to age 100 compared with peers who have lower levels of resilience. Compared with the overall U.S. population, the oldest old (ages 95 and older) have more positive attitudes towards life, are more extroverted, and experience less general emotional distress (are less neurotic). The link between social connections and health is well established: Older adults who are socially isolated face a risk of premature death that is on par with the health risks associated with smoking. Researchers estimate that between 15 percent and 25 percent of the overall variation in human longevity may be explained by genetic differences in the population. Men with the genetic variant known as FOXO3 have almost three times the odds of living to nearly 100 years of age than their peers without the genetic variant. On average, long-lived individuals have fewer chronic diseases, better mental health, and better physical and cognitive function than non-surviving members of their age cohort. Among long-lived individuals, men tend to be healthier than women, whites healthier than nonwhites, and highly educated people tend to have better cognitive function than their less-educated peers. Among those ages 65 and older, researchers find that the increase in years spent without disability (disability-free life expectancy) outpaced the increase in disabled life over the past 40 years.” (https://www.prb.org/resources/longevity-research-unraveling-the-determinants-of-healthy- aging-and-longer-life-spans/) It isn't only about activity, it's about the collective. And, it isn't only about your chronological age… it may be related to your telomeres. As it turns out, while your chronological age is one way to describe your lifespan, studies have shown that your telomeres may be a better predictor of survival and mortality. Telomeres are the caps that protect the end of chromosomes that are linear, and telomeres are known to shorten with age. So, the older you become, the shorter your telomeres. (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6651551/) I've actually had my telomeres looked at, and they just indicated that I was right where I should be… Huh? What does that mean, exactly? I don't know! The jury is still out on whether telomeres function as a biological marker of age and aging, or whether they, instead, can serve as biomarkers that influence certain conditions to promote longevity. It's a very interesting topic, one that I may discuss with experts on a future FFAB podcast. Another often-cited reference is made to those communities who experience an extended lifespan. They're the populations living in what's called “Blue Zones.” According to bluezoes.com, “The term “blue zones” was first coined by Dan Buettner, a National Geographic Explorer and journalist, during an exploratory project he led in 2004. After an expedition to Okinawa, Japan in 2000 to investigate the longevity there, he set out to explore other regions of the world with reportedly high longevity. With the support of National Geographic, Buettner, and his team of scientists and demographers traveled the world in search of communities where people not only lived longer but also enjoyed a high quality of life in their old age. After analyzing demographic data and interviewing numerous centenarians, they identified five regions that stood out for their extraordinary longevity and vitality.” (https://www.bluezones.com/about/history/) Those FAB Five are, according to National Geopgraphic: Ikaria, Greece Okinawa, Japan Ogliastra Region, Sardinia Loma Linda, California Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica (https://www.nationalgeographic.com/premium/article/5-blue-zones-where-the-worlds- healthiest-people-live) These are the places around the world where the healthiest people live. What do they all have in common that may contribute to their long and healthy lives? 1. Move every day. 2. Know your sense of purpose. 3. Minimize stress and maximize stress relief. Make stress relief a priority. 4. Eat until you're about 80% full. 5. Eat a largely plant-based diet. 6. Drink alcohol in moderation. 7. Connect with your community. These are the main reasons why those who live in the Blue Zones live longer and healthier lives. As a relevant aside, these reasons sound a lot like the FAB Five rules of a Beautiful Life, the five core tenets around which I try my best to live, myself. They bear repeating: These are Dr. Shirley's FAB Five Rules of Beauty… and by extension, these are also the foundations of living a Beautiful Life: 1. Good nutrition is the first rule of beauty, and the second rule being that of 2. Adequate daily hydration. 3. Consistent, restful sleep. 4. Frequent and effective stress management. 5. Mind, body, and soul nourishment and protection: social support, purpose-driven living, learning something new every day Back to the Blue Zones. What if you don't live in one of them? What do you do? Brian Johnson doesn't live in a Blue Zone-- and he seems to have reverse engineered his age. The American tech entrepreneur made millions when his company acquired Venmo for $26.2 million then sold it to PayPal for $800 million one year later. He is obsessed with longevity-- and he's putting his money-- and his body, where his ideals are. Brian Johnson lives in Provo, Utah-- not in a Blue Zone. In pursuit of life extension, aka longevity, Mr. Johnson follows a strict diet and regimented lifestyle. He takes at least 61 supplements per day and allegedly eats at more than 70 pounds of vegetables a month. And, many of his bodily functions are monitored almost all the time, every day. It has been said that his anti-aging routine costs over $2 million per year. In a July 2023 interview with Fortune magazine online, the 45- year old long-life chaser has stated that four principles guide him: 1. Don't die. 2. Don't kill each other. 3. Don't destroy the planet. 4. Don't underestimate aligning with AI. After these four, nothing else matters for him. (https://fortune.com/well/2023/07/13/bryan-johnson-life-principles/) I believe that Beauty matters-- inside and out. Holistically, outwardly towards others in the form of compassion, and inwardly towards ourselves, in the form of forgiveness and self-love. These are some of the fundamental tenets of optimal living, of a Beautiful Life. The beauty industry is catching on. And yes, I told you so! If you think that longevity and beauty are unrelated, think again. After health and well-being, beauty is now betting on long life. According to The Future Laboratory, “Businesses in the health and beauty sectors are pursuing longevity through rigorous scientific research, exploring solutions in areas such as skincare, nutrition, IV therapies, wearables, biomarker monitoring and more.” (https://www.thefuturelaboratory.com/blog/what-does-the-pursuit-of-longevity-mean-for-beauty- and-wellness-brands) From product and medication development to lifestyle services as personalized nutrition and menopausal symptom monitoring, beauty brands are recognizing that consumers not only want to look good and feel good, but also to optimize their lives… to live a more Beautiful Life, inside and out -- as I often say. The Future Lab recommends that “Beauty, health and wellness brands should focus on offering accessible products and services that are preventative, innovative and restorative.” (https://www.thefuturelaboratory.com/blog/what-does-the-pursuit-of-longevity-mean-for-beauty- and-wellness-brands) That's the future of Beauty, and it is almost here. For now, ponder this. How far are you willing to go to live longer? How much are you willing to pay to optimize your life? Let me know in the comments.

Hello there everybody! Welcome back to another episode of Trophy Talk. This marks the very first occassion that Darryl and Colin have ever done a duo podcast together, which is crazy considering we're three years into doing this show. Regardless, we relished at the opportunity to discuss gaming, and take a break from a very busy period of work. We start off the episode with a little mini break down of the most recent Resident Evil 4 Remake DLC, Separate Ways, which came out on the day of recording the episode. As massive RE fans this DLC is intriguing as it brings back the classic challenge that we know and love in these trophy lists, but does so in a bite sized $10 package. From there we get into Platinum shout outs and Patreon shout outs before moving on to some questions submitted by the listeners! Topics include, what games we were highly anticipating that didn't live up to our own hype, what the last game we would choose to tackle on our backlog would be, and if we have any recommendations for new Switch owners. To close out the show we talk about what we've been playing. Much of this time Colin spends trying to convince Darryl, (and anyone else who will listen), to buy and play FF16. It's a fantastic game of course but in addition to that, the trophy hunt and list is extremely well designed! Darryl then chimes in with updates on Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, as well as a bit of an update on Star Wars: Squadrons, and Inside.

This past Sunday a 78-year-old Florida man, Edward Druzolowski, shot dead his neighbor, 42-year-old Brian Ford, during a confrontation over Ford cutting trees on the shooter's property. This morning, prestigious Law Professor Jonathan Turley published a post on his blog about this event. Although in my experience Professor Turley generally produces world-class legal content--as his academic and legal success attest--this particular post struck me as effectively muddying and conflating a number of distinct use-of-force law doctrines and cases.

A few people responded with some really good questions, and that's basically the meat and potatoes of the interview.Enjoy!What you'll hear in this episode:-Why Trumpet is Chris' "calling card" in this new music business...04:20-The paradigm shift of the music business explained from the perspective of one at the top...08:00-One door closes, another opens for the little guy...14:40-Chris' inspirations and influences as a trumpeter...19:45-Why record making and gigging need to be approached radically differently...26:00-Chris' recording and performing sound equipment...30:20-Chris' daily routine and maintenance of the chops while touring...36:15-Why Chris can't bear to part ways with his Martin Committee...37:30-Why Sergei Nakariakov rarely tours in the U.S....42:00-Reflections from host James Newcomb on the interview...44:55-Plus whatever your discerning ears deem worthy of your time and interest...Resources mentioned:Chris' websiteOther Side of the Bell podcast with Chris BottiAbout the Guest:GRAMMY-winning trumpeter Chris Botti has been one of the most popular instrumentalists in the world for nearly three decades; he's collaborated with some of the biggest superstars on the planet, including Sting, Paul Simon, Barbra Streisand, Lady Gaga, Tony Bennett, Frank Sinatra, Aretha Franklin, Bette Midler, Joni Mitchell, Steven Tyler, Andrea Bocelli, Herbie Hancock, Yo-Yo Ma, and others; he's topped the jazz charts with numerous albums, earned multiple Gold and Platinum records, performed with symphony orchestras and on prestigious stages from Carnegie Hall to the Hollywood Bowl to the Sydney Opera House.In short, Chris Botti really needs no introduction. Yet with his Blue Note Records debut, he's offering one anyway. Vol.1 is in many ways a fresh start for the trumpeter. Having successfully crossed over from jazz renown to pop stardom, Botti's first album in more than a decade finds him crossing back, with a small group project focused on acoustic jazz and classic standards.“I turned 60 in 2022, at a time that seemed like a restart for so many things in the world,” Botti says. “I wanted to strip away all the orchestral arrangements and special guests and focus more on my playing, the playing of my band, and these jazz classics that we always love playing on stage.”While Botti could boast of the major names with whom he's shared stages, this project allows him to share his enthusiasm for the jazz greats past and present that excite him – his conversation is peppered with references to everyone from Miles Davis to Keith Jarrett to Pat Metheny to Brad Mehldau. He points to landmark albums like Davis' Kind of Blue, John Coltrane and Johnny Hartman, or Metheny's duo outing with Charlie Haden, Beyond the Missouri Sky as models for the kind of “lifestyle” music he set out to make – music that is exquisite on its own but can also set the scene for a coffee shop or hotel lounge, instantly generating a sophisticated...

Or click here for more information: Linktr.ee/BeatlesEarth   --- The Beatles were an English rock band, formed in Liverpool in 1960, that comprised John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr. They are regarded as the most influential band of all timeand were integral to the development of 1960s counterculture and popular music's recognition as an art form. Rooted in skiffle, beat and 1950s rock 'n' roll, their sound incorporated elements of classical music and traditional pop in innovative ways; the band later explored music styles ranging from ballads and Indian music to psychedelia and hard rock. As pioneers in recording, songwriting and artistic presentation, the Beatles revolutionised many aspects of the music industry and were often publicised as leaders of the era's youth and sociocultural movements. Led by primary songwriters Lennon and McCartney, the Beatles evolved from Lennon's previous group, the Quarrymen, and built their reputation playing clubs in Liverpool and Hamburg over three years from 1960, initially with Stuart Sutcliffe playing bass. The core trio of Lennon, McCartney and Harrison, together since 1958, went through a succession of drummers, including Pete Best, before asking Starr to join them in 1962. Manager Brian Epstein moulded them into a professional act, and producer George Martin guided and developed their recordings, greatly expanding their domestic success after signing to EMI Records and achieving their first hit, "Love Me Do", in late 1962.   Lennon, McCartney, Harrison and Starr all released solo albums in 1970. Their solo records sometimes involved one or more of the others; Starr's Ringo (1973) was the only album to include compositions and performances by all four ex-Beatles, albeit on separate songs. With Starr's participation, Harrison staged the Concert for Bangladesh in New York City in August 1971. Other than an unreleased jam session in 1974, later bootlegged as A Toot and a Snore in '74, Lennon and McCartney never recorded together again. Two double-LP sets of the Beatles' greatest hits, compiled by Klein, 1962–1966 and 1967–1970, were released in 1973, at first under the Apple Records imprint. Commonly known as the "Red Album" and "Blue Album", respectively, each has earned a Multi-Platinum certification in the US and a Platinum certification in the UK. Between 1976 and 1982, EMI/Capitol released a wave of compilation albums without input from the ex-Beatles, starting with the double-disc compilation Rock 'n' Roll Music. The only one to feature previously unreleased material was The Beatles at the Hollywood Bowl (1977); the first officially issued concert recordings by the group, it contained selections from two shows they played during their 1964 and 1965 US tours. The music and enduring fame of the Beatles were commercially exploited in various other ways, again often outside their creative control. In April 1974, the musical John, Paul, George, Ringo ... and Bert, written by Willy Russell and featuring singer Barbara Dickson, opened in London. It included, with permission from Northern Songs, eleven Lennon-McCartney compositions and one by Harrison, "Here Comes the Sun". Displeased with the production's use of his song, Harrison withdrew his permission to use it.Later that year, the off-Broadway musical Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band on the Road opened. All This and World War II (1976) was an unorthodox nonfiction film that combined newsreel footage with covers of Beatles songs by performers ranging from Elton John and Keith Moon to the London Symphony Orchestra. The Broadway musical Beatlemania, an unauthorised nostalgia revue, opened in early 1977 and proved popular, spinning off five separate touring productions. In 1979, the band sued the producers, settling for several million dollars in damages. Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (1978), a musical film starring the Bee Gees and Peter Frampton, was a commercial failure and an "artistic fiasco", according to Ingham. Accompanying the wave of Beatles nostalgia and persistent reunion rumours in the US during the 1970s, several entrepreneurs made public offers to the Beatles for a reunion concert.Promoter Bill Sargent first offered the Beatles $10 million for a reunion concert in 1974. He raised his offer to $30 million in January 1976 and then to $50 million the following month. On 24 April 1976, during a broadcast of Saturday Night Live, producer Lorne Michaels jokingly offered the Beatles $3,000 to reunite on the show. Lennon and McCartney were watching the live broadcast at Lennon's apartment at the Dakota in New York, which was within driving distance of the NBC studio where the show was being broadcast. The former bandmates briefly entertained the idea of going to the studio and surprising Michaels by accepting his offer, but decided not to.

Hello everyone; it's Dr. Shirley! Welcome to Fifteen Minutes of F.A.B., a segment of the Forever F.A.B. podcast, where I review products, services, experiences, and frankly, whatever-- in 15 minutes or less. If the full-length podcast is a couture dress, then FFAB is a button-down Henley paired with leather leggings. If you don't have time to tune in to my full-length podcast, check out Fifteen Minutes of F.A.B. Some have considered it truth in beauty, plastic surgery secrets, or as a nerdy or academic take on wellness and beauty… with a dash of fashion. Consider it what you may, my aim is to engage you as a credible and authoritative voice in most, if not all, aspects of beauty and wellness, with a dash of fashion—including products, wellness services, technologies, new scientific research, and innovations in plastic surgery. As the founder of Holistic Plastic Surgery, my approach to beauty is through a lens of wellness, that is grounded in science, backed by medical study and research, strengthened by clinical experience, and bolstered by surgical training with the use of principles and techniques of plastic surgery. And, there's my love of fashion, of course! I feel uniquely qualified to talk with you about beauty, wellness, aesthetics, and plastic surgery, as well as products and services within those spaces,… not only because of my extensive training and expansive background, but also because I am one of you! Many of the human issues around aging and being a fierce FAB woman as well as an agent for positive change-- I live these, too. You are not alone. Together, we can help the world to become a more beautiful Forever FAB place! So, that said let's get started. [Start the timer (timer sound)!] In this new year, I've decided that it will be one of expansion and discovery. So, I will explore all sorts of topics—near and possibly farfetched, while still focusing on the topics that make the Forever FAB podcast… well, FABulous, namely fashion, the art of living well, and beauty. As part of my philosophy of holistic plastic surgery, where I believe that beauty emanates from within, wellness plays an integral role in my practice. This goes for many aspects of life that help you to live in grace and beauty, including nutrition, exercise, products, technologies, mind-body, spirit, and science.   Main Points: The average life expectancy to date for men and women in the US is 77.28 years. Many factors affect how long you live. These include, but are not limited to: Age Genetics Epigenetics Lifestyle Gender Access to health care Diet Access to clean food Access to clean water Exercise Environment: crime? Education Social support Socioeconomic status And more It can be said that if you do all the right things from the list I mentioned, you know-- eat well, get enough sleep, manage stress-- the FAB Five rules of a Beautiful life-- then you may increase your lifespan. But, this is not guaranteed. There are also factors that have been shown to reduce or shorten your life. These include, but are not limited to: inadequate sleep lack of exercise & inactivity unhealthy diet lack of social support & loneliness Unmanaged stress Smoking Alcohol abuse Drug abuse And so much more. The first question to ask is: do you love your life? Then ask yourself, do you wish to live longer? If yes, then do you have a sense of purpose, one that contributes to the greater good? There is significant interest not only in age management, but also in longevity. According to the Healthy Longevity Clinic, “The definition of longevity is living a longer and healthier life. It means how long a person is going to live, and how healthy his later life will be. You can also understand the term longevity as the description of the state when a person lives beyond their average life expectancy.” (https://www.healthylongevity.clinic/blog/what-is-longevity- definition#:~:text=The%20definition%20of%20longevity%20is,average%20life%20expectancy %20(1).) Research abounds on longevity-- what influences it, how to improve it… Is it even possible for us all to expect to live beyond 100, even to 120? Scanning the titles of the most current research on longevity, the National Institute on Aging (NIA) highlights these papers over the past year: July 20, 2023 Study of fruit flies finds hunger causes brain changes that slow aging May 03, 2023 Immune system profiles of extremely long-lived people April 13, 2023 Aging linked to RNA-length imbalance February 23, 2023 Personality and mortality linked to number of mitochondrial DNA in blood February 09, 2023 Fetal exposure to Great Depression economic hardship linked to accelerated aging December 22, 2022 Anti-insulin protein linked to longevity in queen ants December 08, 2022 Optimism linked to longevity and well-being in two recent studies October 04, 2022 Adopting healthy habits: What do we know about the science of behavior change? September 20, 2022 Leisure activities may improve longevity for older adults The NIA's most recent paper, entitled Today's Research on Aging, Issue 34, highlights the following points: “Older adults in their 90s who are resilient—who can adapt positively under adverse circumstances—have a much higher likelihood of living to age 100 compared with peers who have lower levels of resilience. Compared with the overall U.S. population, the oldest old (ages 95 and older) have more positive attitudes towards life, are more extroverted, and experience less general emotional distress (are less neurotic). The link between social connections and health is well established: Older adults who are socially isolated face a risk of premature death that is on par with the health risks associated with smoking. Researchers estimate that between 15 percent and 25 percent of the overall variation in human longevity may be explained by genetic differences in the population. Men with the genetic variant known as FOXO3 have almost three times the odds of living to nearly 100 years of age than their peers without the genetic variant. On average, long-lived individuals have fewer chronic diseases, better mental health, and better physical and cognitive function than non-surviving members of their age cohort. Among long-lived individuals, men tend to be healthier than women, whites healthier than nonwhites, and highly educated people tend to have better cognitive function than their less-educated peers. Among those ages 65 and older, researchers find that the increase in years spent without disability (disability-free life expectancy) outpaced the increase in disabled life over the past 40 years.” (https://www.prb.org/resources/longevity-research-unraveling-the-determinants-of-healthy- aging-and-longer-life-spans/) It isn't only about activity, it's about the collective. And, it isn't only about your chronological age… it may be related to your telomeres. As it turns out, while your chronological age is one way to describe your lifespan, studies have shown that your telomeres may be a better predictor of survival and mortality. Telomeres are the caps that protect the end of chromosomes that are linear, and telomeres are known to shorten with age. So, the older you become, the shorter your telomeres. (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6651551/) I've actually had my telomeres looked at, and they just indicated that I was right where I should be… Huh? What does that mean, exactly? I don't know! The jury is still out on whether telomeres function as a biological marker of age and aging, or whether they, instead, can serve as biomarkers that influence certain conditions to promote longevity. It's a very interesting topic, one that I may discuss with experts on a future FFAB podcast. Another often-cited reference is made to those communities who experience an extended lifespan. They're the populations living in what's called “Blue Zones.” According to bluezoes.com, “The term “blue zones” was first coined by Dan Buettner, a National Geographic Explorer and journalist, during an exploratory project he led in 2004. After an expedition to Okinawa, Japan in 2000 to investigate the longevity there, he set out to explore other regions of the world with reportedly high longevity. With the support of National Geographic, Buettner, and his team of scientists and demographers traveled the world in search of communities where people not only lived longer but also enjoyed a high quality of life in their old age. After analyzing demographic data and interviewing numerous centenarians, they identified five regions that stood out for their extraordinary longevity and vitality.” (https://www.bluezones.com/about/history/) Those FAB Five are, according to National Geopgraphic: Ikaria, Greece Okinawa, Japan Ogliastra Region, Sardinia Loma Linda, California Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica (https://www.nationalgeographic.com/premium/article/5-blue-zones-where-the-worlds- healthiest-people-live) These are the places around the world where the healthiest people live. What do they all have in common that may contribute to their long and healthy lives? 1. Move every day. 2. Know your sense of purpose. 3. Minimize stress and maximize stress relief. Make stress relief a priority. 4. Eat until you're about 80% full. 5. Eat a largely plant-based diet. 6. Drink alcohol in moderation. 7. Connect with your community. These are the main reasons why those who live in the Blue Zones live longer and healthier lives. As a relevant aside, these reasons sound a lot like the FAB Five rules of a Beautiful Life, the five core tenets around which I try my best to live, myself. They bear repeating: These are Dr. Shirley's FAB Five Rules of Beauty… and by extension, these are also the foundations of living a Beautiful Life: 1. Good nutrition is the first rule of beauty, and the second rule being that of 2. Adequate daily hydration. 3. Consistent, restful sleep. 4. Frequent and effective stress management. 5. Mind, body, and soul nourishment and protection: social support, purpose-driven living, learning something new every day Back to the Blue Zones. What if you don't live in one of them? What do you do? Brian Johnson doesn't live in a Blue Zone-- and he seems to have reverse engineered his age. The American tech entrepreneur made millions when his company acquired Venmo for $26.2 million then sold it to PayPal for $800 million one year later. He is obsessed with longevity-- and he's putting his money-- and his body, where his ideals are. Brian Johnson lives in Provo, Utah-- not in a Blue Zone. In pursuit of life extension, aka longevity, Mr. Johnson follows a strict diet and regimented lifestyle. He takes at least 61 supplements per day and allegedly eats at more than 70 pounds of vegetables a month. And, many of his bodily functions are monitored almost all the time, every day. It has been said that his anti-aging routine costs over $2 million per year. In a July 2023 interview with Fortune magazine online, the 45- year old long-life chaser has stated that four principles guide him: 1. Don't die. 2. Don't kill each other. 3. Don't destroy the planet. 4. Don't underestimate aligning with AI. After these four, nothing else matters for him. (https://fortune.com/well/2023/07/13/bryan-johnson-life-principles/) I believe that Beauty matters-- inside and out. Holistically, outwardly towards others in the form of compassion, and inwardly towards ourselves, in the form of forgiveness and self-love. These are some of the fundamental tenets of optimal living, of a Beautiful Life. The beauty industry is catching on. And yes, I told you so! If you think that longevity and beauty are unrelated, think again. After health and well-being, beauty is now betting on long life. According to The Future Laboratory, “Businesses in the health and beauty sectors are pursuing longevity through rigorous scientific research, exploring solutions in areas such as skincare, nutrition, IV therapies, wearables, biomarker monitoring and more.” (https://www.thefuturelaboratory.com/blog/what-does-the-pursuit-of-longevity-mean-for-beauty- and-wellness-brands) From product and medication development to lifestyle services as personalized nutrition and menopausal symptom monitoring, beauty brands are recognizing that consumers not only want to look good and feel good, but also to optimize their lives… to live a more Beautiful Life, inside and out -- as I often say. The Future Lab recommends that “Beauty, health and wellness brands should focus on offering accessible products and services that are preventative, innovative and restorative.” (https://www.thefuturelaboratory.com/blog/what-does-the-pursuit-of-longevity-mean-for-beauty- and-wellness-brands) That's the future of Beauty, and it is almost here. For now, ponder this. How far are you willing to go to live longer? How much are you willing to pay to optimize your life? Let me know in the comments.

SUMMARY:You wanted the best, you got the best! Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Paul Stanley of KISS joins Songcraft to talk about his long and diverse career through the lens of his role as a songwriter.PART ONE:Paul and Scott talk about musicians who adopt personas, how KISS seems to have the best timing of any musical group of all time, and their respective frightening memories of the band. Then they spend the rest of the time pinching themselves that Paul freakin' Stanley is on Songcraft.  PART TWO:Our in-depth conversation with Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Paul StanleyABOUT PAUL STANLEY:Paul Stanley is best known for his vocals, guitar, and outlandish stage performances that have helped define KISS. Combining elements of shock rock and glam to set a new standard for theatrical arena rock, Stanley's Starchild persona, alongside fellow band co-founder Gene Simmons's Demon character, has become one of the most iconic figures in music history. One of the best-selling bands of all time, KISS has sold over 75 million albums worldwide, and has earned more Gold-certified albums than any other band in the US. Fourteen of their albums have been certified Platinum, three of which have earned multi-Platinum status. Stanley has written or co-written many of the band's best-known songs, including “Strutter,” “Rock and Roll All Nite,” “Shout it Out Loud,” “Detroit Rock City,” “God of Thunder,” “Hard Luck Woman,” “Love Gun,” “I Was Made for Lovin' You,” “Lick it Up,” “Heaven's on Fire,” “Crazy, Crazy Nights,” “Forever,” and many others. In addition to his work with the band, Stanley released a self-titled debut album in 1978, and another solo album in 2006 called Live to Win. More recently, he released the album Now and Then, a collection of R&B classics alongside vintage-style originals under the name Paul Stanley's Soul Station. Defying categorization, he has written a hit song with Michael Bolton, duetted with Sarah Brightman, and even starred in a production of Phantom of the Opera. Paul's songs have been covered by a diverse list of artists, including Cher, Nirvana, The Replacements, Green Day, Ronnie Spector, Bonnie Tyler, Toad the Wet Sprocket, and Garth Brooks. As a member of KISS, Paul was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2014. This fall, the band wraps the final leg of their End of the Road tour, culminating in a pair of shows at Madison Square Garden in New York, the city where KISS first formed in 1972.

Earlier this year Federal law enforcement sought to execute a search warrant an a mother and her two adult sons for living unlawfully on Federal park land.Because one of the sons had previously made threatening statements, the arrest was made surreptitiously by plain-clothes officers pretending to need a jump-start for their truck.When one of the brothers, named Timber, prepared to help the as yet unidentified officers, they initiated his arrest. That brother then started screaming for help from his other brother, Brooks, who happened to move around in a wheelchair.Brooks rolled up in his wheelchair, saw his brother struggling with two men, and pointed a revolver at the two men. Unknown to Brooks he was more or less surrounded by other plain-clothes cops, who immediately began firing at him.  Brooks would survive the shooting, but be paralyzed through his gunshot injuries. (He is now suing the Federal government for $50 million.)Could it have been lawful for Brooks to point his revolver at the officers making a lawful arrest of his brother Timber?Could it have been unlawful for the officers to respond to Brooks' revolver with their own gunfire?That's what we discuss in today's PRE-RECORDED and MEMBERS-ONLY show!Become a Law of Self Defense Member for JUST 99 CENTS!Not yet a Law of Self Defense Member?

Unfortunately for #LujanGrisham, her estrogenic overreach has invited a metric ton of political pushback, including calls for her impeachment, and public statements from New Mexico's leading law enforcement officers that they had zero interest in enforcing her unconstitutional order.

Or click here for more information: Linktr.ee/BeatlesEarth   --- The Beatles were an English rock band, formed in Liverpool in 1960, that comprised John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr. They are regarded as the most influential band of all timeand were integral to the development of 1960s counterculture and popular music's recognition as an art form. Rooted in skiffle, beat and 1950s rock 'n' roll, their sound incorporated elements of classical music and traditional pop in innovative ways; the band later explored music styles ranging from ballads and Indian music to psychedelia and hard rock. As pioneers in recording, songwriting and artistic presentation, the Beatles revolutionised many aspects of the music industry and were often publicised as leaders of the era's youth and sociocultural movements. Led by primary songwriters Lennon and McCartney, the Beatles evolved from Lennon's previous group, the Quarrymen, and built their reputation playing clubs in Liverpool and Hamburg over three years from 1960, initially with Stuart Sutcliffe playing bass. The core trio of Lennon, McCartney and Harrison, together since 1958, went through a succession of drummers, including Pete Best, before asking Starr to join them in 1962. Manager Brian Epstein moulded them into a professional act, and producer George Martin guided and developed their recordings, greatly expanding their domestic success after signing to EMI Records and achieving their first hit, "Love Me Do", in late 1962.   Lennon, McCartney, Harrison and Starr all released solo albums in 1970. Their solo records sometimes involved one or more of the others; Starr's Ringo (1973) was the only album to include compositions and performances by all four ex-Beatles, albeit on separate songs. With Starr's participation, Harrison staged the Concert for Bangladesh in New York City in August 1971. Other than an unreleased jam session in 1974, later bootlegged as A Toot and a Snore in '74, Lennon and McCartney never recorded together again. Two double-LP sets of the Beatles' greatest hits, compiled by Klein, 1962–1966 and 1967–1970, were released in 1973, at first under the Apple Records imprint. Commonly known as the "Red Album" and "Blue Album", respectively, each has earned a Multi-Platinum certification in the US and a Platinum certification in the UK. Between 1976 and 1982, EMI/Capitol released a wave of compilation albums without input from the ex-Beatles, starting with the double-disc compilation Rock 'n' Roll Music. The only one to feature previously unreleased material was The Beatles at the Hollywood Bowl (1977); the first officially issued concert recordings by the group, it contained selections from two shows they played during their 1964 and 1965 US tours. The music and enduring fame of the Beatles were commercially exploited in various other ways, again often outside their creative control. In April 1974, the musical John, Paul, George, Ringo ... and Bert, written by Willy Russell and featuring singer Barbara Dickson, opened in London. It included, with permission from Northern Songs, eleven Lennon-McCartney compositions and one by Harrison, "Here Comes the Sun". Displeased with the production's use of his song, Harrison withdrew his permission to use it.Later that year, the off-Broadway musical Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band on the Road opened. All This and World War II (1976) was an unorthodox nonfiction film that combined newsreel footage with covers of Beatles songs by performers ranging from Elton John and Keith Moon to the London Symphony Orchestra. The Broadway musical Beatlemania, an unauthorised nostalgia revue, opened in early 1977 and proved popular, spinning off five separate touring productions. In 1979, the band sued the producers, settling for several million dollars in damages. Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (1978), a musical film starring the Bee Gees and Peter Frampton, was a commercial failure and an "artistic fiasco", according to Ingham. Accompanying the wave of Beatles nostalgia and persistent reunion rumours in the US during the 1970s, several entrepreneurs made public offers to the Beatles for a reunion concert.Promoter Bill Sargent first offered the Beatles $10 million for a reunion concert in 1974. He raised his offer to $30 million in January 1976 and then to $50 million the following month. On 24 April 1976, during a broadcast of Saturday Night Live, producer Lorne Michaels jokingly offered the Beatles $3,000 to reunite on the show. Lennon and McCartney were watching the live broadcast at Lennon's apartment at the Dakota in New York, which was within driving distance of the NBC studio where the show was being broadcast. The former bandmates briefly entertained the idea of going to the studio and surprising Michaels by accepting his offer, but decided not to.

On June 1, 2023 a masked 14-year-old Jor'Dell Richardson threatened a liquor store clerk with an apparent pistol, committing an armed robbery along with several other masked young black men. Police arrived as the 14-year and other robbers fled the store carrying armfuls of merchandise.Police chased and tackled Richardson to the ground, at which point they became aware of the apparent pistol in his waistband. During the struggle on the ground Richardson attempted to reach for the apparent pistol, at which point he was shot and killed by the arresting officers. It would later be discovered that Richardson's apparent pistol was, in fact, a BB gun. Last week the local prosecutor released his report on this Officer Involved Shooting, concluding that a prosecution of the officers involved with not be legally or ethically justified.

C.J. PierceTake a walk with me down Fascination Street as I get to know C.J. Pierce. C.J. is the founding guitarist for the platinum selling rock / metal band, Drowning Pool. In this episode, we chat about how the band formed, and how they got their first record label contract. Then we talk about the insane success of their first album, Sinner, which was certified platinum six weeks after it was released. Then we touch on the mega-hit 'Bodies', and how it keeps popping up in popular culture. It was featured in a recent episode of Queen Latifah's television show The Equalizer (on CBS), and it was just used by Shaquille O'Neal in his latest rap single release. Obviously, we discuss Ryan McCombs' return to front Drowning pool, and their latest tour. The SNAFU tour begins in early September, and is a national tour featuring: Drowning Pool, Saliva, Adalita's Way, and Any Given Sin. Drowning Pool's newest album, 2022's Strike A Nerve, was not handled very well by their at the time record label, so C.J., explains their decision to become an independent band. Lastly, we each share a Pantera story or two, as C.J. is friends with some of those guys. He is kind enough to let me play the title track from the newest album: Strike A Nerve, and I it is as Drowning Pool as it could possibly be! Go see them on The SNAFU tour!This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/4068452/advertisement

Watch this on YouTube! The S&P 500 has corrected down as expected, looking like it has a little more downside risk. Gold and silver look like they have some short term downside with a rising dollar and high interest rates. The precious metals equities should follow suit. The Fed is speaking like they have finished raising rates, bond traders believe them: 93% chance for a pause on their Sept 20 meeting. Platinum is coming up on a buy point, and copper is as well.  Lithium has an interesting setup in the Sprott Lithium Miners ETF - LITP. Uranium is still rocketing higher, and the equities are shining. Would love to see a pullback so we can buy more. Oil is still moving higher despite a rising dollar. Thank you for watching!
