A broker from a national pizza chain asked me to extend their lease and lower their rent by $5/SF. But instead of panicking, I asked a better question: “Would they be open to leaving instead?” In this episode, I break down the full story—and why more landlords need to stop reacting from fear and start thinking strategically.From understanding tenant exclusives in the market to knowing when to call a bluff, I walk you through exactly how I handled this pitch, the math behind restaurant margins, and why you should never drop rent without seeing sales. If you're being hit with rent reduction requests—especially from nationals—this is a must-listen playbook for keeping your NOI strong.

At the end of life, morphine becomes an important method for pain control. As a death doula, a non-medical practitioner, my training included alternative methods for pain control and anxiety relief. The techniques can be practiced in between medication doses or in addition to them when pain or agitation or anxiety rises. One can use these methods at any point in their life span as well.

It's that special time of the year when the Bureau turns its mind to things budgetary! But first! We got a visit from fellow community-media denizen, Jayne Trimble, of the Empower Women show on AccessNow TV. Then, we look at this year's delightfully passive aggressive budget powerpoint. And! Clr Rashovich asked what a 5% budget REDUCTION would look like, and it's not good. Not good at all. Music by Guidewire (aka Ryan Hill) and Kimberley Fuery.

President Donald Trump changed course on Sunday evening on his previous opposition to a resolution ordering the release of files related to the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. After previously speaking out against the Democrat-led discharge petition, Trump is now calling on his party to vote for the resolution when it comes up this week.The Federal Aviation Administration terminated its order to reduce flights out of U.S. airports on Nov. 17 as the country moves to return to normal air traffic in the aftermath of the government shutdown. The flight reduction emergency order expired at 6 a.m. on Monday, enabling normal operations to resume across the National Airspace System, according to the federal agency.

This week the UK government set out its vision for a world where the use of animals in science is eliminated in all but exceptional circumstances. Animal experiments in the UK peaked at 4.14 million in 2015 driven mainly by a big increase at the time in genetic modification experiments. By 2020, the number had fallen sharply to 2.88 million as alternative methods and technologies were developed. But since then that decline has plateaued. Could we see the end of animals being used in science labs? Presenter Tom Whipple is joined by Dr. Chris Powell, Director of Cambridge BioPharma Consultants Ltd. and honorary visiting scientist at Cambridge University and Dr. Natalie Burden, head of New Approach Methodologies at the National Centre for the Replacement, Refinement and Reduction of Animals in Research (NC3Rs). And as world leaders gather for the COP30 climate conference in Brazil, we speak to glaciologist Dr. Matthias Huss. In the past decade, his data has shown that a quarter of Swiss ice has been lost, with hundreds of glaciers having disappeared entirely. But part of one of those glaciers remains in the freezer of his basement... Also Penny Sarchet, managing editor at New Scientist, brings us her take on the new science that matters this week.

Host: Cindy Allen Published: November 7, 2025 Length: ~15 minutes Presented by: Global Training Center End Game: The Supreme Court, IEEPA Tariffs, and What Comes Next This week on Cindy's Version, Cindy Allen takes inspiration from Taylor Swift's End Game to unpack one of the most closely watched moments in international trade this year — the Supreme Court hearing on the IEEPA tariff case. Speaking from Detroit while traveling during the ongoing federal shutdown, Cindy breaks down the key issues debated before the Court, from the meaning of “regulate imports” to the limits of presidential authority under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). She also covers the new Section 232 tariffs on heavy-duty trucks and buses, the reduction in flights ordered by the FAA amid the shutdown, and the possible ripple effects across global supply chains. What You'll Learn in This Episode: New Section 232 tariffs effective November 10: • 25% on heavy-duty trucks • 10% on buses • Carve-outs for emergency vehicles • Country limitations — UK (10%), EU (15%), Japan (15%) Reduction of IEEPA fentanyl tariffs to 10% Details of the longest federal shutdown in U.S. history and its impact on: • Air travel (10–15% reduction in flights) • Cargo movement and trucking • Supply chain coordination Key moments from the Supreme Court IEEPA hearing (Nov 5): • Justices debate the meaning of “regulate imports” • Split questioning along ideological lines • Discussion on licensing fees, tariffs, and refund logistics What happens next — possible outcomes of the Court's decision and their trade implications Key Takeaways: The IEEPA case could reshape presidential trade authority and future tariff enforcement. Refund scenarios range from automatic government-issued payments to lengthy entry-by-entry protests. Even if IEEPA duties are struck down, Section 232 or 122 authorities could be used to reimpose tariffs. De minimis relief is unlikely to return, regardless of the IEEPA ruling. The decision may come faster than usual — possibly within a month — under pressure to resolve before 2026.

On an Extra edition of Alaska's Political Pipeline, Sen.

PREVIEW. AI, Corporate Staffing Reduction, and Consumer Liquidity Issues Threatening a Recession. Chris Riegel discusses how while AI contributes to corporate staff reduction (e.g., IBM), financial results from quick service restaurants like Chipotle indicate consumer challenges. Specifically, younger consumers are financially strained, leading to negative results and consumers trading down. This problem with consumer liquidity represents early signs of what could become a nasty recession, though its progression is unknown. Retry

Starting Friday, airlines will cancel flights at busy airports across the country, including the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport. The Federal Aviation Administration directed airlines to cut traffic by 10 percent to keep travelers safe during the government shutdown. Air traffic controllers have been working without pay since October 1 and that has exacerbated staffing problems. The shutdown is now the longest in United States history. Gunnar Olson, a reporter and podcast host with Thrifty Traveler joined MPR News host Nina Moini with advice for passengers.

PREVIEW: Argentina's Economic Reforms and Hesitation of Foreign Investors Guest: Mary Anastasia Grady Mary Anastasia Grady discusses Argentina, noting that despite successes including deregulation, tax cuts, and reduction of government size, foreign investment is not materializing. Investors remain on the sidelines due to concerns that the peso is overvalued and capital controls exist, creating uncertainty about when they can retrieve their money. This suggests President Javier Milei is holding back from implementing necessary additional economic reforms to attract international capital. 1930 ARGENTINA VS USA

At September's Union of BC Municipalities convention, Premier David Eby announced that 100 new involuntary care beds would open in the province. The new beds will be shared between Surrey and Prince George, adding to 18 long-term involuntary care beds announced for Maple Ridge in June. While city councillors in the two municipalities welcomed the move, it has been broadly criticized by drug policy researchers. We speak with Kora DeBeck, Distinguished Professor of Substance Use and Drug Policy in the School of Public Policy at Simon Fraser University and research scientist with the BC Centre on Substance Use.

There's a moment every HR professional remembers — that first email, that first conversation, that first tremor in the air when “return to office” stopped being a policy discussion and started being personal. Three years ago, the message was simple: Stay home, stay safe. Now it's: Come back. And in between, everything about how we work — and what we value — has changed.In this episode of Human Solutions, Pete Wright sits down with AIM HR Solutions' Tom Jones and Annette Dupree to explore the strange, often uneasy middle ground between flexibility and structure, empathy and compliance. It's a story about the quiet negotiations happening in every workplace — between leaders trying to rebuild culture and employees trying to preserve the balance they finally found.Annette starts with something deceptively simple: mindset. What if return-to-office isn't about control, but reconnection? What if the message isn't we need you here, but we miss you here? From that shift, a thousand possibilities open up — from reimagining flexibility to reframing belonging.Tom, meanwhile, brings the legal lens: what happens when compassion meets compliance? When a doctor's note becomes a line in the sand? He explains the fine print of the interactive dialogue — that delicate conversation between employee, manager, and HR that determines what's possible and what isn't. It's the kind of process that sounds bureaucratic but, done right, can restore trust instead of eroding it.And then there's the harder truth: sometimes, it isn't about coming back. It's about who comes back. Reductions in force test the soul of an organization. Tom and Annette walk through how to make those decisions — how to document criteria, avoid bias, and resist the all-too-human temptation to let frustration drive strategy. Because when layoffs happen, the work doesn't end. It shifts.This is an episode about the messy, necessary work of being human at work — and the leaders who try, every day, to get it right.

"I think just the nature of having a shelter that's supportive and animal control has really expedited this as a success…And I think that made a big difference in the city." This episode is sponsored-in-part by Maddie's Fund. Stacy LeBaron talks with Vanessa Forney, founder and president of Bay Area Cats, an organization in Sunnyvale, California focused on spay neuter for pets and trap neuter return. Since stumbling upon a kitten in her neighborhood in 2020, Vanessa has personally trapped over 2,500 cats and kittens, built an efficient volunteer trapping team, and formed a 501(c)(3) that has helped spay/neuter thousands of cats every year. In this episode, Vanessa shares how she quickly moved from rescue-reactive thinking to strategic targeted TNR, focusing her efforts on Sunnyvale and achieving remarkable results through mass trapping techniques and neighborhood-wide approaches. She discusses the importance of data collection, building collaborative relationships with animal control and open intake shelters, and how her organization achieved over 40% reduction in combined shelter intake and TNR program cats between 2022 and 2024. Vanessa also explains the typical timeline for seeing impact (including the initial uptick in requests during the first 12-18 months), the evolution of a TNR organization through different life stages, and why addressing pet spay/neuter is critical for long-term sustainability. Listeners will come away understanding that successful targeted TNR requires patience, collaboration, detailed record-keeping, and a multi-layered approach that addresses both community cats and owned pets. Vanessa's story demonstrates that even young organizations can make significant measurable impact when they focus their resources strategically, build strong community partnerships, and create volunteer networks that make the work sustainable rather than isolating.

I almost didn't record this episode. I've been sitting with these thoughts for weeks, wrestling with whether to speak, when to speak, and how to speak about the cultural moment we're in.I've been thinking a lot about September 11th lately, about who we were in those days and how we were. Republicans and Democrats wept together. Strangers helped strangers. We saw each other as Americans first, humans first. For all the horror of that day, there was something unexpectedly beautiful about how it stripped away our superficial divisions and revealed our shared humanity.What a stark contrast to where we find ourselves now.In this episode, I'm wading into some deep waters about the assassination of Charlie Kirk, the response from our culture, and the heartbreaking disunity I've witnessed even among believers. I share why I've drastically limited my social media intake and why I believe we were never intended to bear the weight of the world on our shoulders. I talk about the sacred rhythm of listening first, pondering deeply, and responding with compassion and intention.I also get vulnerable about my own convictions... why I'm choosing to be a hope-bringer rather than adding fuel to the flames, and what it means practically to guard our gates, embrace the power of the pause, and look for the image of God even in those who make our blood boil.Everything is on fire, but we don't have to add fuel to the flames. We can choose to carry water instead of matches.This one's personal, friends. And I'm grateful you're here for the journey.Chapters00:00 | Introduction: A Call to Reflect03:34 | The Weight of Words: Navigating Anger and Grief06:45 | The Impact of Digital Overload on Compassion09:38 | The Importance of Silence and Listening12:41 | Shared Humanity in Times of Crisis15:10 | Rejecting Dehumanization: Embracing the Imago Dei18:06 | Practical Steps to Foster Hope22:21 | Navigating Cultural Moments with Wisdom25:14 | Personal Reflections on Recent Events29:16 | Choosing Hope in a Divided WorldShannon's Website: shannonsuzannescott.comShannon's Instagram: instagram.com/shannonsscott

Health systems know they need to pull out all the stops when it comes to improving operational efficiency, given their financial climate. That doesn't necessarily mean they need entirely new strategies — but they do need to make the most of the tried-and-true tactics. Care variation reduction (CVR) has been part of the operational excellence playbook for years. The opportunity for efficiency and cost savings through CVR is massive—about $100B nationally — but the vast majority of health systems have not been able to unlock its full potential. This week, host Abby Burns invites Advisory Board provider operations expert Isis Monteiro to break down what's getting in the way of realizing that $100B, and how leaders can start to move the needle. We're here to help: Ep. 239: UNC Health: The care variation reduction story you need to hear Care Variation Reduction Assessment Identify your biggest opportunities for care variation reduction 6 strategies to improve your operating margins and financial resilience [Webinar] Care variation reduction: A $100B savings opportunity Learn from the 100+ health system finance leaders who participated in Advisory Board's capital spending survey — and find out how health systems are making capital decisions today.
