This is Garrison Hardie with your CrossPolitic Daily News Brief for Friday, May 26th, 2023. https://www.dailywire.com/news/college-enrollment-keeps-sliding-even-three-years-after-lockdowns College Enrollment Keeps Sliding Even Three Years After Lockdowns Enrollment for most forms of postsecondary education in the United States continued to decline three years after nationwide lockdowns forced many students to temporarily continue their degrees online, according to a new analysis from the National Student Clearinghouse. Public four-year institutions saw a 0.8% enrollment decline as of spring 2023, a somewhat less severe decrease than the 1.2% decline recorded in 2022 but more pronounced than the 0.3% decline in 2021 and the 0.2% decline in 2020. Private four-year nonprofit institutions meanwhile witnessed a 1.0% decrease in 2023, compared to the 1.2% decrease in 2022, the 0.4% decrease in 2021, and the 0.6% decrease in 2020. There are currently 7.1 million students enrolled in public four-year colleges and 3.9 million students enrolled in private four-year nonprofit colleges, marking drops from 7.3 million and 4.0 million enrolled students, respectively, from spring 2019, the last year which was not affected by the lockdowns. “Undergraduates at public and private nonprofit four-year institutions are still declining but at slower rates,” the analysis from the National Student Clearinghouse summarized. “Total postsecondary enrollment remains well below pre-pandemic levels.” Community college enrollment nevertheless increased 0.5% as of spring 2023, a phenomenon driven by “dual enrolled high school students and freshmen,” while the number of students pursuing graduate or professional degrees plummeted 2.2% from last year. The postsecondary education marketplace has been critically disrupted by the lockdowns and the advent of virtual instruction, realities which increasingly prompted students to question the time and funds they devote toward their college degrees. Elevated levels of student debt, which officials in the Biden administration are seeking to address through an executive order to cancel $10,000 in loans for every borrower earning less than $125,000, have also prompted many students to pause or discontinue their education. The debt forgiveness policy was recently examined by the Supreme Court, which is expected to release an opinion on the controversial move within the next month. Lockdowns also severely diminished learning outcomes at the primary and secondary levels. The most recent National Assessment of Educational Progress showed that average reading scores for nine-year-olds plummeted five points and average mathematics scores dropped seven points, marking the first score decline for reading in three decades and the first score decline for mathematics in the history of the initiative. Stanford University economist and Hoover Institution senior fellow Eric Hanushek revealed in a recent study that learning losses could cause affected students to lose between 2% and 9% of their lifetime earnings as they miss the opportunity to learn critical skills, reducing prospects for future nationwide economic growth. Parents concerned about the impact of lockdowns on education have removed their children from government schools at an unprecedented rate. The number of homeschooled students increased from 2.7 million in 2020 to 3.1 million in 2023, according to a study from the National Home Education Research Institute.

A member group's explicit agenda suggests otherwise. A leftist coalition is working to roll back Ohio's few remaining abortion restrictions by way of a proposed constitutional amendment. Some opposition groups have suggested that this craftily worded proposal will not only enable late-term abortions, but undermine parental rights on these and other matters of life and death, including the ability to protect children from sex-change mutilations. While proponents of member groups in the coalition have claimed the amendment will not undermine parental rights, recently highlighted remarks made by a key player behind the abortion initiative have done little to inspire confidence. Ohio Physicians for Reproductive Rights and Ohioans for Reproductive Freedom PAC are leading the charge to enshrine abortion rights in the state constitution by way of an initiated constitutional amendment called the "Ohio Right to Make Reproductive Decisions Including Abortion Initiative." The proposal to put this abortion initiative on the November 2023 ballot was certified in March by the state attorney general. The proposed amendment further states that the "state shall not, directly or indirectly, burden, penalize, prohibit, interfere with, or discriminate against either: 1. An individual's voluntary exercise of this right or 2. A person or entity that assists an individual exercising this right, unless the State demonstrates that it is using the least restrictive means to advance the individual's health in accordance with widely accepted and evidence-based standards of care." The only ostensible restriction on abortion admitted in the amendment leaves determinations as to whether a viable human being can be exterminated up to abortionists. Parental rights are implicated and eroded under the amendment, argued the pro-life activists, because "'reproductive decisions' is a very broad term, and is intentionally included to stop any effort to put reasonable restrictions or enforce parental rights on a wide array of other destructive decisions—potentially including sex change surgeries." Carrie Severino and Frank Scaturro of the Judicial Crisis Network concurred, noting in National Review that "'reproductive decisions' ... is a very broad term. By explicitly defining such decisions as 'not limited to' the enumerated categories, the proposal establishes its scope as sweeping. A natural reading would extend to any medical procedure that involves the human reproductive system, including sex-change surgery." Extra to potentially affecting parents' ability to protect their children from sex-change mutilations and devastating puberty blockers, Dannenfelser and Sekulow highlighted how "if Ohio adopts the amendment, the state's supreme court can be expected to go even farther than the U.S. Supreme Court ever did in undoing the state's parental consent laws," in part by "outlawing any legal requirement for a parent to be notified about or consent before an abortion—or any other procedure related to 'reproduction decisions'—is performed on their child." https://twitter.com/i/status/1636019433578672130 - Play Video https://www.military.com/daily-news/2023/05/23/va-cant-account-187-million-emergency-covid-19-funding.html VA Can't Account for $187 Million in Emergency COVID-19 Funding The Department of Veterans Affairs can’t account for at least $187 million in supplementary COVID-19 funding spread across more than 10,000 transactions related to the pandemic, according to a House oversight committee. Congress and the VA are at odds over the department's handling of nearly $37 billion in additional funding it received to address the COVID-19 pandemic, with House Veterans Affairs Committee leaders on both sides of the aisle critical of its failure to account for every dime. Chairman Mike Bost, R-Ill., and ranking member Rep. Mark Takano, D-Calif., praised the department for its pandemic response overall but called the VA out for its inability to account for the money, during a hearing sidetracked by GOP rancor over the department's messaging on debt ceiling legislation. Between 2020 and 2021, the VA received roughly $37 billion to address COVID-19 response, including an initial $60 million, followed by $19.6 billion in the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act and another $17 billion in the American Rescue Plan. As part of the deal to receive the funding, the department was required to account for its spending, a mandate underscored by passage in November 2021 of the VA Transparency and Trust Act. Across a series of 40 reviews and reports, the VA Office of Inspector General found numerous accounting issues involving the COVID-19 funds, including a lack of visibility over payroll, some contracts and medical supplies. The IG said the problems are attributable to the department's decentralized management structure, as well as an outdated financial information technology software – that it doesn't expect to modernize for another decade. It determined that the department was challenged by inaccurate payroll accounting; used manual transfers and adjustments to its financial management systems that led to at least 53 reporting errors; had problems with supply acquisition, such as duplicate purchases; and failed to properly oversee its efforts to provide telehealth hardware to veterans, namely distributing tablet computers and cell phones so they could access health care but not recouping the equipment when the veteran failed to use it. Given the issues, both Bost and Takano said they have concerns for the $2.1 billion remaining in American Rescue Plan funds, with Bost and fellow Republicans saying the money should be returned, while Takano pressed the VA to be more transparent as it continues using the funding. VA officials told the committee Tuesday that the department will spend the remaining American Rescue Plan money by the end of the fiscal year for programs initiated during the pandemic such as housing and telehealth for homeless veterans; prosthetics and medical research, including studies of long COVID; and on preventing the spread of contagious diseases in hospital and administrative settings. https://www.outkick.com/matt-araiza-jets-workout-allegations-cleared-up/ NEW YORK JETS WORKING OUT MATT ARAIZA TWO WEEKS AFTER PUNTER’S NAME WAS CLEARED OF GANG RAPE ALLEGATIONS Matt Araiza has landed his first workout with an NFL team since being cut by the Buffalo Bills ahead of last season over gang rape allegations. The New York Jets are giving the free-agent punter a look, according to Adam Schefter. Matt Araiza was cut by the Bills in August 2022 shortly after an allegation was made public that he had taken part in the gang rape of a minor while attending San Diego State. Fast-forward nine months to May of this year, and it has been determined that he was not present at the time of the incident that allegedly took place in October 2021. The transcript of a meeting between the accuser and prosecutors was brought to light just over two weeks ago in which investigators explained that they do not believe Araiza was present at the time of the alleged assault. Prosecutors in the San Diego District Attorney’s Office declined to file criminal charges, but Araiza is still facing a civil suit that he has no plans of settling anytime soon. Despite that there wasn’t a single fact was known about the alleged incident, the Bills caved to the portion of the public who had already deemed the punter guilty and cut him shortly before the start of the 2022 NFL regular season.

Hunter Biden flew on a private plane to Arkansas in order to cry poor at child support hearing.

These historical times demand we be critical thinkers with true knowledge. Destructive leader worship and seeing through the dense war fog. Faltering purveyors of a failing agenda. Their goal is to develop placid submission in the masses. Calculated tactics based on propaganda. Who can hear you from that soapbox? Alternatives to trust are hard to find. There is a purpose behind the madness. Blatant bias and the end of legacy media. Seeing hidden truths and holding government accountable. Not a physical war, so be docile and confused. Truth, justice and human compassion. Julian Assange is still in custody. Citizen journalism is the future. Even the left is sick of this crap. Private intel means avoiding oversight. Alpha's are naughty by nature. Never underestimate the people's resilience. Matt Whitacker speaks of the Dim's addictions. Leaning into the narrative. How to hire the right people for the FBI. Proposals exist to revamp government agencies. Hopefully, the right plans are ready to go. Earning back the people's trust. What Dim debates? The importance of the oath, and those who stood up for it. China, Turkish power plays and Zuck in Europe. Is that objective or subjective evidence? Defining risk narratives is a key weapon. Influencing behavior is their bargaining power. Widespread resistance means the masses are waking up. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Semi-private training is a game changer for coaches and gym owners.The concept: One skilled trainer can deliver personalized programming to two to four clients during the same hour. They aren't doing versions of the same workout. They're doing workouts tailored to their exact goals.Semi-private training is a win for clients who might want more attention than they'd get in group classes but can't afford to do one-on-one PT three times a week. Coaches win, too: If a trainer has four semi-private training clients, the hourly rate can be well north of $80.And the gym owner who uses a Two-Brain Business pricing and pay structure in a semi-private program will generate a lot of profit.  In this episode, semi-private expert Brian Bott lays out a warp-speed implementation plan for owners and coaches. He'll tell you what you can expect in terms of rewards, how to set the program up and price it, how to sell it to existing clients, and how to market it to new clients.

Sports Illustrated cover model George Santos was arrested for fraud! This week's episode processes the shock over that news, and asks the all important question of who in their right mind would post a $500,000 bond to bail out George Santos, and what are they getting in return? Where there's smoke, there's fire, and Santos is the smoke of a larger corruption ushering in fascist kleptocracy.   In this week's episode, Andrea is joined by old friend of the show Terrell Starr of the essential podcast Black Diplomats. Sarah is taking a step back from the show to deal with a family situation, as she has shared on Twitter.

The conversation focused on the job market for consultants, including the current state of the market, the opportunities available, and the strategies consultants should use to navigate the market. Chad offered his perspective on the job market and provided insights for consultants looking for positions. Charles Aris, Executive Search Firm Charles Aris is a classic executive search firm that has been in business for 54 years and has 90 team members located across 15 states. They specialize in bespoke searches and their five main areas of focus are strategy, corporate development, finance and accounting, engineering, operations and supply chain, and sales and marketing. Their client base is split between private equity firms and non-private equity organizations. They also produce monthly newsletters about their searches and offer reports and compensation studies. Charles Aris has the largest strategy recruiting practice in the United States and their practice is headed by a former consultant from Deloitte Consulting and Wharton MBA. They specialize in placing current and former strategy consultants from firms such as Bain, BCG and McKinsey in various positions from pre-MBA level to partner level. Increased Demand for Management Consultants Since May 2022, the United States experienced  unprecedented economic growth during the past year and unprecedented numbers of employees leaving current positions which led to a shortage of staff in many firms. As a recruiting firm, Charles Aris was overwhelmed with search requests and had to implement a 40-day delay on all new searches for the first time in its 54-year history. A pullback started in December, and interest rates were raised to tame inflation, even if that meant driving the economy into a recession. We are now in the middle of a transition from a 100% candidate-driven market to a 75% company-driven market. Despite this, mixed messages are coming from the market causing confusion; major corporations such as Amazon are announcing sizable layoffs, while the monthly labor reports are robust and unemployment rates have fallen. Chad explains what is behind the conflicting reports between the numbers.  He goes on to explain how this has impacted the consulting sector, how numbers of hires have fallen dramatically compared to the previous year. He mentions how major consulting firms are rolling out their playbook, how they are managing people out, and promotions are slowing, taking on fewer hires, and he identifies a common lie amongst top-tier consulting firms when it comes to promotion, and what many firms are offering in terms of “transition payments” to accommodate moving people out of the firm. Areas of Demand for Management Consultants However, he also talks about what firms are looking for in terms of remote or on-location hires. He talks about the areas of consulting where there is an increase in demand for transformation skill sets. He explains that companies want to reduce their cost structure and are in need of transformation and cost containment experts. Companies have built up investments during the hay days and now need help unwinding them. Companies need assistance in cost containment as they look to their future and realize they likely won't hit their revenue targets. These transformation and cost containment services can help them reduce their cost structure, allowing them to be successful in the coming years. Private equity firms are facing a challenging time right now, as the cost of capital has increased and deal flow has slowed. To make up for this, private equity firms are investing in their existing portfolio companies to make sure they reach their full potential. There is a spike in demand for individuals who specialize in areas such as transformation and cost cutting, finance and accounting, talent professionals, and operations and supply chain. CFOs are the hardest positions for companies to fill due to a demand and supply imbalance. He recommends that independent consultants should specialize in a few areas to ensure they are able to take advantage of the current market demand with Finance as the highest area of demand. The Demand for Specialists over Generalists In the current economic downturn, companies are less likely to take risks on hiring generalists and more likely to hire specialists for projects. Companies want to make sure that their money is being spent in a way that will yield a strong return. Therefore, it is important for people to identify their true specialties and market themselves aggressively as a specialist in those areas. This can be difficult, as it is tempting to present oneself as a generalist in order to secure more work. However, companies in an economic downturn are more likely to look for specialists they can trust to get the job done. Chad offers key tips on how to market oneself in the current down market. Chad shares that demand is steady across all industries, with insurance companies being particularly consistent in their hiring practices; general financial services, life sciences, and healthcare also show steady demand. Consumer-facing and retail jobs, however, have seen less demand. To illustrate the extent of the downturn, he states that in the first four months of this year, they have enacted 30% fewer searches and that one should prepare for the ongoing downturn by cranking up their marketing efforts and skills.  Finally, he also discusses some of the challenges consultants may face, such as the importance of having a strong online presence and demonstrating value to potential clients. The International and Future Market for Consulting Services Charles Aris represents the U.S. but has 50 partners in other countries. He shares feedback from their annual meeting in Columbia this year that a recession in the U.S. affects the rest of the international community and that a recession is inevitable. To ride the wave, Chad recommends taking proactive steps to deal with an economic downturn. He shares how they have seen a reduction in compensation rises without a decrease in current compensation. He shares how major consulting firms such as McKinsey are managing to maintain their current fees with their clients. In terms of the Data Science market, this is a no-lose career choice moving forward, but in the ESG sustainable market, a lot of companies consider this a luxury and it's not at the core of their business, Chad forecasts that companies will downplay the focus in this area. He confirms that corporations will reach out to independent consulting firms especially when they are experts in the fields of Finance, AI, Data Science, and Big Data, in addition to healthcare companies and hospital systems that may need to hire a boutique firm.  How Independent Consultants Get Noticed by Recruiting Firms Chad explains that, despite how extremely talented and experienced his clients may be, they can't always place top talent with a company. The candidate's skills must be specific in alignment with the company's demands. When reaching out to an executive search firm, focus on the information on the resume because the resume will be uploaded to the internal database which will be matched with queries. Also, Identify what you are looking for in the initial email, but Chad also recommends that applicants should continue to network. When asked about working for private equity firm's portfolio companies, Chad explains that it's advisable to approach the professionals in the private equity firm to gain a better understanding on what the firm wants to accomplish and who to contact. He offers advice on email subject headings, the type of quantifiable information that will get you noticed, and when to follow up. He also explains how consultants who have “been on the beach” for an extended “vacation” should approach firms.

In some important ways, it doesn't matter what your job is when somebody you care about dies.  In today's episode, we look at ways you can use writing to process your emotions and communicate love and loss, or to support somebody else who is in mourning.  We also discuss the practical challenges of freelancing while grieving. In the four years since this episode was first published, it's quite likely you have experienced grief over the loss of a loved one (and/or have wanted to support someone who has gone through this). Grief runs on its own timeline; in this new intro I also address allowing time to grieve through the years.

Wish I had known long ago that my thinking (not on purpose) was creating my life! If you're unhappy with any area of your current life, might be for you.   Listen to find out more about: Learning from your surroundings, in relationships, marriage, professionally, or life in general.   Is anything in currently in your life (you can change) contributing to you not being where you want to be?   I have work to do this too still… in many areas, and always will as long as I live… in reading, self-concept, relationships, etc.   Somethings are working great, the garden, my family (for the most part), self-acceptance, but the inner work is never complete as long as we live.   Other areas are in progress, like my willingness to grow, my courage to show up (this is hard for me), to be willing to change, to be more visible, and to have an open mind and a teachable heart.   Where are you?  This can be people or things-related… so keep an open mind when it comes to growing and evolving.

Will Hayward, the CEO of Private Media, an independent publishing company in Australia that publishes several titles, including politics-focused Crikey, recently faced the intriguing and likely slightly terrifying experience of being the subject of a defamation lawsuit filed by Lachlan Murdoch over a Crikey opinion column that held the Murdochs were “unindicted co-conspirators” of the Jan 6 attack on the US Capitol. Murdoch withdrew the lawsuit in the aftermath of Fox settling its case with Dominion, much to Will's relief.  We discussed the case, the decision to stand firm against a powerful and angry individual, and how Crikey made lemonade out of lemons by using the case to rally support for the politics publication through subscriptions. We also touch on the impact of Australia's news bargaining code that has wrung payments from platforms and is the model for similar laws worldwide, including in the US, as well as lessons learned from the social publishing era, since Will was in the thick of it.  

Have you watched the Fair Play documentary on Netflix yet? Admittedly I only half watched, but that was all I needed for my takeaway: The most important piece (for me) is that society is beginning to recognize the mothers' (sometimes) unpaid contributions to the family: the physical & mental load. For example, remembering the groceries, who has clean uniforms for tomorrow, what extras to pack for each kid, snack bags etc. And for that alone, good job “Fair Play.” Progress! What's next? In this episode, you'll hear where I feel that we are going next in terms of recognizing what mothers bring to the family: the healing contribution. It's been my observation that the mothers are initiating the healing of the family, the deconditioning, pattern breaking and creating of a new consciousness level for the family as a unit. One that honors each child for who they are as an individual. Many of the mothers of our generation came into this role with an 80s/90s boombox consciousness level operating system - and we're trying to apply that to our children, who came with an iPhone 3000 consciousness level operating system.

Not a few Christian folk are beginning to worry. They’re thinking that they may be losing the culture war. The strongest evidence they see: their young people are abandoning the faith in droves.You know, you are up against one set of problems when you are dealing with people who believe that there is a God, but whose conduct is wrong. They are intentioned, and they can be brought back to that God. You have a whole different set of problems when you are trying to reach people who no longer believe that God is. How on earth did we get to this place?Well, how long has it been since God was banned from the schools? Can you trace it back in your mind? Do you know when it was? Because when I was in high school, you could pray at the beginning of a football game (and they commonly did over the speaker system). When I was in school, you could actually pray in the school. People could talk about God, a teacher could have a Bible on his desk if he wanted to have it there. But that was when I was in high school. When did it change?Well, there is an elephant in the living room that few were willing to talk about. It is the system of public education in this country—a system that has been corrupted by a series of lawsuits designed to eradicate God from public life. I can say with near certainty that there is no hope of turning public education around. It’s just too involved, too ingrained, and it can’t be done. For one thing, it will take too long. Changing the court system is the work of a generation—no, two generations—and the lawyers and judges of tomorrow are being educated by that same system we want to change right now. If there’s to be any hope at all, it has to be in private education. And be warned: Private education will be fought every step of the way by the education establishment. The only reason the battle has not been joined more vigorously is because private education is not seen as a threat…yet. But there is reason to believe right now that some of those things are changing…

How can you increase your self-esteem? Let's talk about it! Listen to it as many times as you feel drawn. Energy healing only helps. Trust your intuition! You can mute it since the healing is separate from the music. Downloading it does not impact the energy. It's always good to drink water after receiving energy healing to help integrate the energy! The music is playing in the background and is separate from the healing. You do not need headphones to listen. Just press play and receive the energy. I do not recommend driving or operating heavy machinery while receiving energy healing because everyone is impacted differently. This is not a substitute for medical care.

Dr. Bhaswati Bhattacharya is a licensed, board-certified physician-scientist and Fulbright Scholar with a focus on the wisdom and science of authentic medicines such as Ayurveda.  In this episode I chat with Dr. Bhaswati about a recent article she wrote titled, Better Living Beyond Chemistry. In this article Dr. Bhaswati writes about how modern science, looking through the lens of chemistry has a reductionist approach to medicine. We discuss the following: What modern medicine is lacking when looking through the lens of chemistry.  How medicine is a reflection of our spiritual vibrations. Why big data isn't conclusive. How Ayurvedic evidence is observed over thousands of years. The need to integrate prana and nature into modern medicine. * Visit Colette's website www.elementshealingandwellbeing.com  Online consultations Private at-home Digestive Reset Cleanse tailored to you Educational programs - Daily Habits for Holistic Health Have questions before you book? Book a FREE 15 min online Services Enquiry Call * Join the Elements of Ayurveda Community! * Stay connected on the Elements Instagram and Facebook pages. * Thanks for listening!

This week our hosts discuss the end of the COVID-19 public health emergency declarations in the U.S. by the World Health Organization (WHO). They dive into what this means for public health and access to vaccines, testing, treatments, and data collection. “The emergency phase is over, but sadly, as we know, COVID itself is here to stay. On recommendation from the Emergency Committee, the WHO is setting up a review committee to advise on the creation of recommendations for countries on the long-term management of COVID,” says Steven Newmark, Director of Policy at GHLF. Among the highlights in this episode: 00:42: The World Health Organization has announced that it is ending the COVID global health emergency 2:11: “The federal government has been supplying COVID vaccines, including boosters free of charge to everyone regardless of insurance. Now, this is not expected to change just yet, but it may change if the government does not replenish its stockpile of vaccines, not to mention its funding for vaccines. So something that probably can't be counted on, particularly the latter,” says Steven 2:55: The Department of Health and Human Services has announced a $1.1 billion public-private partnership to maintain COVID vaccine access and treatments for the uninsured through December 2024 3:56: “Similar to the vaccine stockpiles, when the supply [of antivirals] runs out, manufacturers will set prices for the medications and any additional charge to consumers will depend on individual's health care plans,” says Steven 6:37: Private insurance companies will no longer be required to cover both at-home and lab COVID tests for free 08:06: With the end of the public health emergency, some restrictions around telehealth that were loosened during the pandemic might return 09:08: The CDC will focus less on case rates and more heavily on hospital and death data in the post-emergency phase 10:18: The CDC will maintain travel surveillance, testing wastewater on airplanes to spot new incoming threats 12:20: As the emergency order ends, it's important to be extra mindful about insurance coverage and to check in with insurance providers before getting a vaccine or a test 14:12: What our hosts learned from this episode Contact Our Hosts Steven Newmark, Director of Policy at GHLF: snewmark@ghlf.org Zoe Rothblatt, Associate Director, Community Outreach at GHLF: zrothblatt@ghlf.org We want to hear what you think.

Solo episode with Bruce Sinclair, the host of the show, discussing how smart digital can enable predictive maintenance for margin improvement and data-driven business models to increase the exit multiple. In businesses where maintenance has a meaningful impact on margins, we can use artificial intelligence to predict when assets will fail in advance of any noticeable signs of a problem.  By using smart digital to prevent unplanned downtimes, we increase the company's operational efficiency to improves its margins, for a relatively low investment in tech. Collecting proprietary monetization data enables the development of novel business models that until recently, were impossible to deploy.  Moving from one-and-done product sales to sales that recur to continuously generating revenue are rewarded by the next buyer paying a higher EBITDA multiple. In this episode, Bruce discusses: How margins are improved indirectly and directly. Using smart-tech-driven operational efficiency to improve margins. How to deploy predictive maintenance to minimize unplanned down times. The three different ways smart digital can increase the EBITDA multiple. The concept of data-driven business models and how they are created. The example of the power-by-the-hour business model developed by jet engine maker Bristol Siddeley and deployed by GE and others.

Episode 184-Noisy to Quiet Do you feel like you have so much noise in your head you can't even think? Or are you at the point where spending time being quiet and in God's presence is the highlight of your day? The latter is definitely preferable. Still, why do we continually find ourselves caught up in the noise of this life? Our incessant thoughts govern us and drive us crazy telling us to do this, this, and oh, that and on and on. Our minds was crammed full of to do lists, agendas, and solutions we don't have. Then, add to those the growing world noise like gun violence, political views, climate change, job shortage, work force shortage, fuel shortages, and so much more. These issues just bring up more unresolved issues to fill our minds with things we can do nothing about. How can we quiet the noise in our minds and focus on Jesus, the one we should be focusing on?

Child poverty levels fell dramatically — nearly in half — in 2021 with the help of pandemic-era government programs and cash assistance. But with those programs gone, poverty in the United States looks pretty much the same as it has for the past 50 years, despite an overall increase in how much we're spending on welfare. This has us wondering: Why is that? On the show today, sociologist Matthew Desmond, author of “Poverty, by America,” breaks down how the United States became a country with more poverty than other rich democracies, what's wrong with our welfare system and what really works to reduce poverty. Plus, the role regular Americans play in all of it. In the News Fix: Following the tragic death of Jordan Neely in New York City, we reflect on the responsibility shared by society at large for allowing unjust systems to remain in place. And, a key player in the global wood pulp industry is considering switching to Chinese currency in its business transactions. We'll get into what that could mean for the future of the U.S. dollar as the world's reserve currency. Later, we'll hear about an early depiction of a bathroom in the “Star Wars” universe. Plus, one couple shares their perspective on Kai's “rants.” And, this week's answer to the Make Me Smart question comes from the mom of one of our producers. Here’s everything we talked about today: “Why Poverty Persists in America” from The New York Times “Child poverty fell by nearly half in 2021, Census Bureau says” from Marketplace “Private opulence, public squalor: How the U.S. helps the rich and hurts the poor” from NPR “How many people are really facing poverty in the U.S.?” from Marketplace “National Poverty in America Awareness Month: January 2023” from the U.S. Census Bureau “The Uncertain Hour” from Marketplace “Opinion | Society’s failures on mental health put Jordan Neely on that F train” from The Washington Post “World's Biggest Pulp Producer Suzano Considers Trading With China in Yuan” from Bloomberg Mad magazine Issue No. 197, March 1978 from the Internet Archive Do you have an answer to the Make Me Smart question?
