Starting this fall, a new Missouri law will require school officials to define antisemitic behavior in their codes of conduct and report those cases to state officials. The law's requirements raise concerns from attorneys that schools will be forced to violate the First Amendment to enforce them. On this month's edition of the Legal Roundtable, attorneys Brenda Talent, Javad Khazaeli and Bill Freivogel talk about the free speech complications of the new law. The panel also discusses two recent rulings with major implications for November's elections, a discrimination lawsuit with ties to the Mafia, and more.

We are being surveyed constantly. Propped up on hundreds of telephone poles, stop signs, and rods are automated license plate recognition technologies.There are many types of surveillance technology, but Flock Safety is one making news as people in Columbus and across the country react to their use. These small devices capture license plate information, as well as bumper stickers and other items on your car.In theory, they are meant to track cars after a crime has been committed, to find missing people, and to be a tool for law enforcement.But, in recent months, this is not what has happened. Individuals have abused this technology. People are concerned about their privacy and how data from these are stored. And for some people, their safety has been compromised by these devices.Guests:Katie Geniusz, reporter with WOSUEmmanuel V.

Abdul Carter wants to become the greatest of all time, and his pursuit of Lawrence Taylor's legendary standard has Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber debating whether that confidence is inspiring or simply creating impossible expectations. Carter flashed plenty of potential as a rookie, but if he wants to be mentioned with LT, the production has to become undeniable. The Giants also have one of the NFL's strongest insurance policies behind Jaxson Dart in Jameis Winston, while Dart's aggressive running style remains a concern after some reckless moments as a rookie. Plus, Evan and Tiki look ahead to the Jets' preseason matchup, what Aaron Glenn's defense needs to show, Braylon Allen's opportunity, and Geno Smith's continued push to look like a steady starting quarterback.

The team discussed the devastating flooding in Indiana, where more than 11 inches of rain triggered historic flooding, forced hundreds of rescues and evacuations, and left at least seven people dead as recovery efforts continue across the state. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Rickey Smiley Morning Show kicked off the week with a mix of breaking news, celebrity headlines, and cultural conversation. The team discussed the devastating flooding in Indiana, where more than 11 inches of rain triggered historic flooding, forced hundreds of rescues and evacuations, and left at least seven people dead as recovery efforts continue across the state. The conversation then shifted to Keke Palmer, whose latest comments encouraged women to focus less on a man’s bank account and more on his character, work ethic, and emotional maturity. Palmer specifically praised blue-collar professionals like mechanics and firefighters, reigniting a broader social media debate about modern dating standards and what truly makes a partner “high value.” The entertainment buzz continued with growing reactions to Stephen A. Smith receiving the National Association of Black Journalists’ 2026 “Thumbs Down” Award. NABJ cited what it described as a recurring pattern of disparaging commentary about prominent Black women in politics, sports, and media, a move that has sparked strong reactions across journalism and social media circles. Meanwhile, Usher shared an emotional milestone as his oldest son, Cinco, officially enrolled at Howard University. The proud father celebrated the achievement with a heartfelt message, joining a growing trend of celebrity children choosing HBCUs for their college experience. The show also highlighted Clarissa Shields reclaiming championship gold in the boxing ring, celebrity boxing antics featuring Ray J, and the latest entertainment news from Atlanta and beyond.

he Saints are finally getting ready for actual football games! Mario Jerez and Erin Summers break down everything that stood out from the Saints' joint practice with the Jacksonville Jaguars, including a strong day for Tyler Shough, Chris Olave looking like an All-Pro, and an offensive line that consistently created movement against one of the NFL's best run defenses from a year ago. The defense had plenty of highlights as well, with Julion Blackmon picking off Trevor Lawrence early, Jonas Sanker, Quincy Riley and Kool-Aid McKinstry making plays in coverage, and Chase Young repeatedly finding his way into the Jacksonville backfield. But the biggest concern coming out of practice was Jordyn Tyson, who left early with a trainer and did not return. The initial indication is that Tyson suffered a hamstring injury, and Mario and Erin discuss what we know — and what the Saints need to find out — before the preseason opener. Then it's time to look ahead to Saints vs. Jaguars! With the preseason finally here, Mario and Erin discuss the individual players they're watching most, including Barion Brown, Bub Means, Bryce Lance, Jonas Sanker, Lorenzo Styles and Jayden Price. Will a diamond in the rough emerge this preseason? Can one of the young receivers separate himself from the pack? And which players could make a major impression as the Saints' roster competition heats up? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Do GLP-1 medications improve metabolic health as much as they support weight loss? A new observational study in the Annals of Internal Medicine raises an important question about semaglutide, insulin discontinuation, type 2 diabetes, and what meaningful metabolic improvement may require.In this episode of Metabolic Mind, Dr. Bret Scher breaks down a real-world study of more than 9,000 veterans with type 2 diabetes who were using insulin and then added either a GLP-1 receptor agonist, SGLT2 inhibitor, or DPP4 inhibitor. Despite semaglutide's stronger association with weight loss, the study found similar insulin discontinuation rates across all three groups over three years.Dr. Scher covers:Why weight loss and metabolic health improvements may not always move togetherWhat insulin discontinuation can reveal about insulin resistance and beta cell functionWhy semaglutide did not outperform older diabetes medications in this studyThe limitations of observational research and real-world medication dataHow GLP-1 medications and therapeutic carbohydrate reduction may work through complementary mechanismsWhy combining GLP-1s with therapeutic carbohydrate reduction may be an important area for future research and clinical practiceThis conversation takes a closer look at what metabolic health means, and why the path from weight loss to insulin independence may be more complex than the scale alone can show.

The Los Angeles Lakers are changing hands again. Just 14 months after Mark Walter agreed to purchase the franchise at a $10 billion valuation, Josh Kushner and former Disney CEO Bob Iger have reached an agreement to buy the Lakers for a record $12.5 billion. Grant Mona and John Browner examine the timing of the stunning sale, why Walter would move on from an appreciating asset so quickly and why the franchise apparently never reached the open market. Could another group have offered more? Why did Kushner and Iger pivot from pursuing an NBA expansion team in Las Vegas to buying a franchise that nobody knew was available? The conversation also covers the federal and SEC scrutiny surrounding Walter's business empire, Kushner's previous sports investments and the potential questions created by Iger's longstanding connection to Disney, ABC and ESPN. Grant and John also wonder why Magic Johnson apparently wasn't given an opportunity to assemble a group, compare the private sale to the Lakers' acquisition of Luka Dončić and discuss why the NBA will face pressure to examine every part of the proposed transaction before approving it. Finally, John explains his theory about how the Clippers' Kawhi Leonard investigation could affect the attention surrounding the Lakers' ownership change. This episode includes commentary and speculation based on publicly reported information. Mark Walter hasn't been charged with wrongdoing, and the proposed Lakers sale remains subject to NBA approval.

The funds raised will go towards essential items, housing, nursing services and wraparound supports. Ingrid Hipkiss spoke with Mission Executive Director Jill Hawkey.

Airline lounge access keeps getting more expensive—and Ed and Richard are wondering who is actually paying these prices. This week on Miles To Go, they break down American Airlines' latest Admirals Club changes, including higher membership prices and a revamped Executive Card. With individual lounge membership now costing hundreds of dollars and family access climbing even higher, the guys debate whether the airline credit card is now the only logical way to buy into the ecosystem. That leads to a broader discussion about whether airport lounges deserve as much weight as they get when travelers evaluate premium credit cards. Crowding, long lines, limited space, and inconsistent food all make Ed question how much real value lounge access adds. Richard also shares a surprise about JetBlue Mint: even on an expensive transcontinental Mint ticket, lounge access still isn't included unless you're flying transatlantic. Then the conversation shifts to a brand-new luxury resort cancellation controversy, where a well-known YouTuber arrived only to find his reservation had been canceled at the last minute. Finally, Richard gives an update on his Frontier GoWild Pass—and admits that, despite owning it, he still hasn't actually managed to use it.

This is your morning All Local update for August 12th, 2026.

Nvidia wants to unlock hundreds of billions of dollars for AI infrastructure, but its new compute financing plan raises questions about how far Wall Street can financialize the AI boom.Chuck Zodda and Paul Lane break down Nvidia's memorandums of understanding with major financial firms, why the company is trying to attract more than $500 billion in third-party capital, and how compute-backed financing could turn AI chips and data center capacity into collateral for investors. They also discuss why high expected yields could signal real concerns about the value of that collateral, how quickly compute power can become obsolete, and why Nvidia's CUDA ecosystem may be central to the argument that its chips have staying power. Plus, they look at a deceptive labor market for college graduates and non-grads, why investors are still holding trillions in cash, the risks of prediction markets, Boston's potential office-to-housing conversion, and problems with ticket resale platforms.

John Harbaugh's hard-nosed training camp has changed the expectations for the Giants. Shaun Morash is in for Evan Roberts alongside Tiki Barber, and Shaun is officially raising the bar: after watching Harbaugh toughen up the roster and establish a new level of professionalism, he believes the Giants should be ready to beat the Cowboys in Week 1. Tiki explains why that physical grind can create the mental edge a football team needs, while both wonder whether this new culture can finally erase years of losing. The Jets' shaky quarterback room also comes under scrutiny, including whether Shedeur Sanders would even be worth considering if he became available.

Some of the world's biggest banks and investment firms have partnered with the chip giant to invest in artificial intelligence infrastructure.The money from the likes of Goldman Sachs, BlackRock and KKR will go towards Nvidia's own projects and those being built by its partners.Meanwhile, Trump Media, the company behind Donald Trump's Truth Social platform, has revealed that more than 10 customers have paid up to $100,000 each to use a controversial service that offers faster access to posts on the site.

For years, businesses have relied on a simple formula to motivate employees: pay them more. Need better performance? Offer a bonus. Need to improve retention? Raise wages. Need people to work harder? Add another incentive program. Compensation matters, but it isn't always the deciding factor leaders think it is. In a recent conversation with Joe Rockey, founder of Elite Business Cruises, we explored a different angle: the strongest organizations don't win because they pay the most. They win because they've built a culture where employees actually want to succeed together. About Joseph Rockey Jr. Joseph Rockey Jr. is the founder of Elite Business Cruises, a serial entrepreneur who has launched nearly 30 businesses, an international best-selling author, and a business consultant specializing in employee motivation, leadership, and business culture. Rather than focusing solely on traditional training programs, Joe helps organizations improve employee engagement, strengthen workplace relationships, and create cultures that attract and retain top talent. His work centers on the idea that businesses succeed when they build stronger relationships with both their employees and their customers. The Problem Isn't Always the Paycheck Joe shared a story from the COVID era, when businesses found themselves competing for workers by constantly raising hourly wages. Restaurants on the same intersection kept outbidding each other by a few cents or a dollar, hoping to attract staff. Workers simply moved to whichever place paid more. It became an endless cycle. The real problem wasn't compensation—it was that every business was running the same play. Eventually, Joe helped one business try something different. Instead of asking "How do we pay people more?" they asked "How do we give people a reason to care?" The answer wasn't another raise. It was building an experience employees wanted to earn together. Most Businesses Don't Actually Have Teams One of the biggest ideas from our conversation was surprisingly simple: many companies aren't really teams. They're collections of individuals who happen to work in the same building. Everyone shows up, does their assigned work, collects a paycheck, and goes home. There's nothing inherently wrong with that, but it makes engagement, accountability, and loyalty hard to build. Joe described the unspoken agreement at many workplaces: "Don't ask about my personal life, and I won't ask about yours." That mindset creates employees who work beside each other instead of with each other. Culture Creates Motivation What made Joe's approach interesting wasn't the cruise itself—that was just the reward. The real work happened long before anyone boarded the ship. Employees worked toward a shared goal, and instead of competing against each other, they started helping each other succeed because everyone's outcome was tied together. That shift changes everything. People start sharing knowledge, helping coworkers solve problems, and investing in each other's success instead of only their own. That's culture, and it's incredibly hard to build with money alone. Training Only Works When People Care Another insight that stood out: most organizations pour real time into onboarding programs, documentation, and training sessions, then wonder why nobody seems to pay attention. Joe's take is that people don't tune out training because the material is bad. They tune out because they aren't emotionally invested in the organization delivering it. When employees feel connected to the company's mission and the people around them, they engage with training far more readily. Better Culture Attracts Better Talent Great cultures recruit themselves. Employees tell friends where they enjoy working, positive experiences spread, and strong teams become magnets for talented people. Instead of constantly chasing someone else's best employee, companies can build an environment where great people choose to join because they want to be part of something meaningful. That's a very different recruiting strategy than posting another job listing with a slightly higher salary. What Leaders Can Learn Technology, AI, and automation keep changing how businesses operate, but none of it replaces culture. If anything, it makes culture more important. The organizations that thrive over the next decade won't be the ones with the newest tools or the biggest tech budgets—they'll be the ones that know how to align people around shared purpose and build environments where employees genuinely want to contribute. Technology can improve productivity. Culture determines whether people want to use that productivity to help your organization succeed. Final Thoughts Compensation will always matter. People deserve to be paid fairly. But if your only strategy for motivation is another raise or another bonus, you'll eventually find yourself in a race someone else can always outbid. Culture isn't built overnight, and it isn't created with one team outing or one incentive program. It's built by giving people a reason to believe they're working toward something together. When that happens, motivation stops being something leaders have to manufacture—it becomes part of the organization's identity. Stay Connected: Join the Developreneur Community

"Two different stories" are clashing on the crude oil front, says Kevin Hincks, who points to headlines keeping price action unchanged to start the trading day. However, other macro indicators suggest a "favorable" trading environment, noting Nvidia's (NVDA) premarket rally as one that can reenergize Wall Street. Kevin also discusses the Mag 7 company's $500 billion push to back the AI buildout. It comes as Intel (INTC) raises its stock offering to $20 billion from $15 billion. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Send us Fan MailAnoka County Commissioner Jeff Reinert joined Liz Collin on her podcast to discuss some new information about elections and voting machines that he believes Anoka County residents and beyond need to be aware of after it came to light at a recent city council meeting. “When I first found out that our voting system is uncertified, I really didn't believe it. We are the fourth largest county in the state, and certainly we'd have certified voting equipment. But then I asked our elections team here at the county and was verified that it is not certified,” Reiner said. Support the show

We'll break down why Trump appears to see El-Sayed as a political threat and what this battle could mean heading into the midterms. Plus, the latest developments in the Iran negotiations are raising serious questions about whether the United States is giving up too much.
