Against a backdrop of violent anti-semitic and anti-indigenous attacks and the relaxation of police restraints in response to them, Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras organizers are faced with twin controversies: the withdrawal of the Jewish group Dayenu from the event and demands for the expulsion of the New South Wales Police contingent. Veteran activist Ken Davis explains the situation (Barry McKay reports). New Yorkers defy the Trump administration and replace the rainbow flag the government “disappeared” from the Stonewall National Monument (Paul DeRienzo of WBAI reports). A Black History Month Rainbow Rewind honors Langston Hughes (produced by Sheri Lunn and Brian DeShazor). And in NewWrap: the European Parliament approves a resolution specifically calling for “the full recognition of trans women as women,” HIV-positive enlistees are once again banned from serving in the U.S. military, intersex children are now protected from undergoing unnecessary medical procedures without their informed consent in the Australian state of Victoria, Kansans can now sue if they're upset after sharing a bathroom with a trans person, U.S. Olympic women's ice hockey team captain Hilary Knight leads her team to gold and plans to lead speed skater Brittany Bowe to the altar, and more international LGBTQ news reported this week by Nico Raquel and Ret (produced by Brian DeShazor).

https://www.theforbiddenknowledgenetwork.comWhen a memo marked with a suspiciously low classification emerged from the Department of Defense in December 2020, it sent shockwaves through the conspiracy theory community. The document mentioned the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, which was previously acknowledged but dismissed as defunct. However, the memo hinted at ongoing operations, contradicting public statements from the Pentagon. The memo's existence is undeniable, yet it leaves a chasm between official narratives and what appears to be a hidden reality.The Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program is a complex web of political and institutional frameworks, designed for obfuscation rather than transparency. Its sustenance relies on covert funding mechanisms and operates at the intersection of multiple agencies, including the Department of Defense, the Intelligence Community, and NASA. The program's secrecy mechanisms are sophisticated and pervasive, creating a hierarchy of knowledge that is nearly impervious to external scrutiny. Yet, the very mechanisms designed to safeguard the program's secrecy also create vulnerabilities, as any breach can have cascading effects. As we delve into this shadowy domain, we are left to ponder the true extent of what remains hidden behind the classified doors of the Pentagon.

How should we read the Reformed tradition for our contemporary context? In the practice of theological retrieval, what role do continuity and development play? In this week's episode, we're featuring a lecture recently delivered by Dr. Drew Martin here at RTS Washington addressing these questions. Dr. Martin is Associate Professor of Systematic Theology at Covenant Seminary and an experienced pastor and church planter. His scholarship focuses on the Reformed Orthodox period and theological developments since that time. His most recent book is Grimké on the Christian Life: Christian Vitality for the Church and World. Want to continue this conversation in the classroom?

In this episode of The UpWords Podcast, host John Terrill sits down with theologians David Buschart and Ryan Tafilowski, co-authors of Worth Doing: Fallenness, Finitude, and Work in the Real World. Together, they explore a more universal theology of work that speaks to all professions—not just those with high agency or prestige.The conversation dives into:Why most faith-and-work discourse overlooks the realities of fallenness and finitude.How embracing our created limits can be liberating rather than frustrating.How gaining a theology of work that moves beyond only ideas of productivity or calling can help us in the trenches of our jobs.How a more robust theology of work can provide spiritual wisdom for navigating seasons of toil and unmet expectations.If you've ever wondered how your daily labor—whether in the boardroom, classroom, or trades—fits into God's story, this episode offers clarity and hope.About our guests:W. David Buschart (PhD, Drew University) is professor of theology and historical studies at Denver Seminary. He is the author of Exploring Protestant Traditions and coauthor of Theology as Retrieval.

In this conversation, our guests discuss how retrieval practice can help all students learn, including those with ADHD and autism. For many teachers, this may challenge the assumption that retrieval practice only works for some learners. Instead, the discussion shows how, when used thoughtfully, retrieval practice can support diverse learning needs and help students build confidence, understanding, and long-term retention.

Click here to sign up for a new platform that helps law firms use subscription billing.To stay up to date with Practi, subscribe to our newsletter at practi.ai/hello.On October 10, 2025, I presented live at MaxLawCon in Nashville on the topic of integrating. Here is the slide deck. Here are the top 5 takeaways:* The Traditional Billable Hour Model Is Becoming Obsolete. AI automation is eliminating a significant portion of billable legal work—up to 75% for firms in the near future. This makes the traditional hourly billing model unsustainable, as tasks that once took hours can now be completed in minutes.* A Massive Latent Legal Market Exists. There is a huge, underserved market for legal services—estimated at $1.3 trillion in the U.S.—comprised of people and businesses who need legal help but are not currently served by lawyers, often due to lack of pricing transparency and affordability.* Subscription Models Offer Predictable Revenue and Better Access. Switching to a subscription-based legal service model provides clients with pricing certainty and allows lawyers to build sustainable practices with predictable revenue, improved client relationships, and better staff retention.* AI Should Be Used Thoughtfully and with the Right Tools. Lawyers should use multiple, purpose-built AI tools (not just general ones like ChatGPT) and always verify AI outputs with source documents. Retrieval-augmented generation and tools that provide citations are especially valuable for legal work.* Ethical and Professional Obligations Favor Efficiency and Transparency. Continuing to bill by the hour without leveraging AI may violate professional conduct rules against wasteful procedures. Embracing AI and subscription models aligns lawyer incentives with client needs and supports access to justice.__________________________Sign up for Paxton, my all-in-one AI legal assistant, helping me with legal research, analysis, drafting, and enhancing existing legal work product.Get Connected with SixFifty, a business and employment legal document automation tool.Sign up for Gavel, an automation platform for law firms.Visit Law Subscribed to subscribe to the weekly newsletter to listen from your web browser.Prefer monthly updates?

Gemini 3 was a landmark frontier model launch in AI this year — but the story behind its performance isn't just about adding more compute. In this episode, I sit down with Sebastian Bourgeaud, a pre-training lead for Gemini 3 at Google DeepMind and co-author of the seminal RETRO paper. In his first-ever podcast interview, Sebastian takes us inside the lab mindset behind Google's most powerful model — what actually changed, and why the real work today is no longer “training a model,” but building a full system.We unpack the “secret recipe” idea — the notion that big leaps come from better pre-training and better post-training — and use it to explore a deeper shift in the industry: moving from an “infinite data” era to a data-limited regime, where curation, proxies, and measurement matter as much as web-scale volume. Sebastian explains why scaling laws aren't dead, but evolving, why evals have become one of the hardest and most underrated problems (including benchmark contamination), and why frontier research is increasingly a full-stack discipline that spans data, infrastructure, and engineering as much as algorithms.From the intuition behind Deep Think, to the rise (and risks) of synthetic data loops, to the future of long-context and retrieval, this is a technical deep dive into the physics of frontier AI. We also get into continual learning — what it would take for models to keep updating with new knowledge over time, whether via tools, expanding context, or new training paradigms — and what that implies for where foundation models are headed next. If you want a grounded view of pre-training in late 2025 beyond the marketing layer, this conversation is a blueprint.Google DeepMindWebsite - https://deepmind.googleX/Twitter - https://x.com/GoogleDeepMindSebastian BorgeaudLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/sebastian-borgeaud-8648a5aa/X/Twitter - https://x.com/borgeaud_sFIRSTMARKWebsite - https://firstmark.comX/Twitter - https://twitter.com/FirstMarkCapMatt Turck (Managing Director)Blog - https://mattturck.comLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/turck/X/Twitter - https://twitter.com/mattturck(00:00) – Cold intro: “We're ahead of schedule” + AI is now a system(00:58) – Oriol's “secret recipe”: better pre- + post-training(02:09) – Why AI progress still isn't slowing down(03:04) – Are models actually getting smarter?(04:36) – Two–three years out: what changes first?(06:34) – AI doing AI research: faster, not automated(07:45) – Frontier labs: same playbook or different bets?(10:19) – Post-transformers: will a disruption happen?(10:51) – DeepMind's advantage: research × engineering × infra(12:26) – What a Gemini 3 pre-training lead actually does(13:59) – From Europe to Cambridge to DeepMind(18:06) – Why he left RL for real-world data(20:05) – From Gopher to Chinchilla to RETRO (and why it matters)(20:28) – “Research taste”: integrate or slow everyone down(23:00) – Fixes vs moonshots: how they balance the pipeline(24:37) – Research vs product pressure (and org structure)(26:24) – Gemini 3 under the hood: MoE in plain English(28:30) – Native multimodality: the hidden costs(30:03) – Scaling laws aren't dead (but scale isn't everything)(33:07) – Synthetic data: powerful, dangerous(35:00) – Reasoning traces: what he can't say (and why)(37:18) – Long context + attention: what's next(38:40) – Retrieval vs RAG vs long context(41:49) – The real boss fight: evals (and contamination)(42:28) – Alignment: pre-training vs post-training(43:32) – Deep Think + agents + “vibe coding”(46:34) – Continual learning: updating models over time(49:35) – Advice for researchers + founders(53:35) – “No end in sight” for progress + closing
FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text MessageYour brain doesn't need more highlighter ink; it needs a knot that keeps memories from slipping. We unpack the testing effect—why retrieval practice beats rereading—and show how spacing transforms effortful recall into durable knowledge you can trust under pressure. Instead of piling on more beads, we teach you to tie the string: close the book, recall from memory, then verify. Along the way, we break the familiarity trap that makes notes feel mastered and share simple drills that build real understanding.We walk through the science in clear language, drawing on our book of the day "Make It Stick" by Peter Brown, Henry Roediger, and Mark McDaniel, and translate it into habits you can start today. You'll learn how desirable difficulty drives consolidation, why the edge of forgetting is the sweet spot, and how multiple retrieval routes protect recall weeks later. Expect practical prompts you can use with books, lectures, and skills: blank-page summaries, three-point recaps, low-stakes quizzes, and flashcards that force an answer before you flip.If pop quizzes used to spike your heart rate, this conversation reframes them as quiet gifts. We show how to build short, spaced sessions that hurt a little now and pay off big later, turning passive review into active mastery. By the end, you'll have a simple framework: recall first, review second; space attempts; welcome the small struggle that signals growth. Subscribe, share this with a friend who's studying or upskilling, and leave a quick review telling us which retrieval habit you'll start today.Key Points from the Episode:• testing effect and why retrieval beats rereading• familiarity versus true understanding• spacing recall to add desirable difficulty• simple recall routines for books, lectures and skills• flashcards, micro-quizzes and blank-page summaries• why discomfort signals real learning• tying multiple routes to the same idea• turning theory into daily habitsOther resources: Want to leave a review?

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text MessageIf studying feels smooth, you might be doing it wrong. We dig into the science behind durable learning and show why the methods that feel effortful—retrieval, spacing, and interleaving—produce knowledge that holds up under pressure. Drawing on Make It Stick and real-world examples, we unpack how familiar strategies like rereading, highlighting, and cramming create a comforting illusion of mastery while leaving you empty-handed when it matters.We start by reframing the core mistake: mistaking recognition for recall. That “I've seen this before” feeling floods your brain with confidence but doesn't prepare you to explain a concept from scratch or pick the right approach without cues. From there, we walk through practical tools. Retrieval practice turns passive exposure into active memory by quizzing yourself, teaching a concept aloud, or using flashcards. Spacing replaces marathon sessions with shorter, scheduled reviews that capitalize on just-enough forgetting to strengthen recall. Interleaving blends problem types and concepts so your brain learns to identify patterns and decide which method to use—the same skill real work demands.You'll hear a concrete exam-prep story that shows how flashcards and spaced reviews transformed short-term familiarity into long-term command. Then we translate ideas into a three-part action plan you can start this week: swap one reread for retrieval, schedule three spaced sessions, and mix at least two problem types in your next practice block. Expect more struggle in the moment and more success when the test, meeting, or project arrives. That discomfort isn't failure; it's the signal that learning is sticking.Our book of the day was "Make It Stick: The Science of Successful Learning" by Peter Brown, Henry Roediger and Mark McDanielKey Points from the Episode:• learning feels harder when it becomes durable• the illusion of fluency from rereading and massed practice• retrieval practice to expose gaps and deepen memory• spacing sessions to leverage forgetting and reload knowledge• interleaving to train recognition and method selection• simple tests to confirm you can teach it from scratch• three concrete actions to apply this weekOther resources: Want to leave a review?

Join Tina Baykaner, MD, MPH, HRS Digital Education Committee Vice-Chair, and her guests Mikhael F. El-Chami, MD, FHRS and Devi G. Nair, MD, FHRS for this week's Lead episode. This article summarizes the worldwide experience retrieving chronically implanted active helix-fixation leadless ventricular pacemakers (the Aveir/Abbott platform) across regulatory clinical trials. The authors assess real-world feasibility, procedural techniques, success rates, and complications of retrieval after long dwell times, demonstrating that devices can be removed safely and effectively even years after implant—up to about 9 years in follow-up. Overall, chronic retrieval success remained high with a low rate of serious adverse events, supporting helix-fixation leadless systems as a manageable long-term pacing strategy when replacement or removal is needed. Learning Objectives Explain the clinical indications for chronic retrieval of helix-fixation leadless pacemakers and how these differ from tine-fixation platforms. Summarize the reported worldwide chronic retrieval success rates, implant-duration range, and key procedural or anatomic reasons for retrieval failure. Identify practical procedural considerations (e.g., docking-button access, retrieval catheter use, imaging support) that improve the likelihood of safe long-term leadless pacemaker removal.

One of the sites that shook me most on my recent Cambodia tour was a site that I had never even heard of before - the Baphuon: Cambodia's Mysterious Golden Mountain Temple! Was this temple actually constructed on top of a much older precision megalithic base? Did you know that a 10,000+ year old mummy was discovered in Nevada's Spirit Cave in 1940? The original tests done on it by Smithsonian scientists found that it was of European origins. Why was this ancient specimen taken and buried, never to be seen or studied again? Most people have heard about the Roswell incident, but very few people seem to have ever heard about the 1953 Kingman UFO crash retrieval... Pulling from leaked emails, eye-witness accounts and the sworn testimony of mechanical engineer Arthur G. Stancil who worked at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, I piece together the details of this incredible event. Why are our history books mostly silent when it comes to the ancient mounds of America and the anomalous artifacts and enigmatic entities that were unearthed inside them? Why has this fascinating history been suppressed? JOIN ME ON A 2026 TOUR TO EGYPT OR PERU

How quickly can the U.S. military spring into action to recover - then cover up - the crash of exotic technology that falls from the sky? The answer is - pretty damned fast. An example of this just played out in, of all places, the outskirts of Area 51, the top-secret Air Force facility in the Nevada desert. On September 23rd, an unknown aerial object slammed into the desert floor on public land a few miles outside the boundary of Area 51. Within minutes, the entire base sprang into action, a large swath of public land was cordoned off by armed military security teams, and a cryptic cover story was concocted. In this episode of WEAPONIZED, Jeremy and George share some of the details of the crash retrieval operation and how civilian researchers in Nevada were able to collect enough information to know that the Air Force explanation was full of holes - containing not only outright falsehoods but also a healthy smattering of disinformation. Also discussed in this episode: the emergence of Grokipedia - a more informative and much more balanced source of information than its much-maligned alternative, Wikipedia, which has become notorious for its rigged manipulation of all UFO-related content.

In this episode of The Deep Dive, we trace the evolution of official UAP investigations—from the post-WWII hunt for wreckage to a radical conclusion reached by insiders: the phenomenon may be intrinsically tied to human consciousness.It begins in the early 1950s, when Canadian official Wilbert Smith discovered that the U.S. was already running a deeply classified program focused on flying saucers. In a sensitive memo, Smith noted that American authorities were interested not just in the craft—but in the mental phenomena associated with them. This wasn't a fringe idea. It was embedded in the earliest stages of secrecy.Smith named Dr. Vannevar Bush, the wartime science czar, as heading a small group studying the “modus operandi” of the saucers. Bush's involvement signaled that the highest levels of American science were taking the phenomenon seriously. Around the same time, Dr. Eric Walker, executive secretary of the Research and Development Board, admitted attending meetings about the recovery of a flying saucer and its occupants—reportedly stored at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. When asked about MJ-12, the legendary secret group, Walker said he'd known about them for 40 years.These early confirmations lend weight to the idea that crash retrievals and compartmented programs were real. But as the decades progressed, the investigation took a strange turn.In the 2000s, the U.S. government launched a new wave of UAP research. One of the most prominent was Robert Bigelow, who spent millions studying the phenomenon. While known for chasing hard evidence—exotic materials, reverse engineering—Bigelow also funded parapsychology research, including grants to Dean Radin in the 1990s.This dual interest led directly to the creation of AAWSAP—the Advanced Aerospace Weapon System Applications Program with support from Senator Ted Stevens, AAWSAP received $22 million to study aerial phenomena, particularly those reported at Skinwalker Ranch.Under Bigelow's direction, buildings were reportedly modified to store recovered UAP materials. Luis Elizondo, a key figure in later disclosure efforts, claimed these materials were “metamaterials” with isotopic ratios not found on Earth—implying off-world origin.But the deeper shift came from James Lakatsky, who managed AAWSAP for the DIA. After years of research, Lakatsky concluded that physical phenomena were connected to psychic phenomena—and that consciousness played a crucial role.He defined the UAP as a technology that integrates physical and psychic elements, and that manipulates psychological and physiological parameters in the witness. In other words, the phenomenon doesn't just fly—it interacts with minds, tailoring experiences to individuals, and potentially influencing culture.Robert Bigelow echoed this in his “Theory of WOW View,” suggesting that the intelligence behind the phenomenon performs absurd, physically impossible acts to grab attention and challenge our assumptions. It's not just surveillance—it's messaging. Games. Performance art designed to break our reality framework.Tim Taylor, a high-level intelligence official, visited experiencer Chris Bledsoe not because Bledsoe was a threat—but because the phenomenon seemed to “like” him. It was communicating with Bledsoe, not the intel officers. This suggests that connection, intent, and consciousness matter.Jim Semivan, former CIA, described the truth as “indigestible.” He worried about how to explain to children that there's a force that can control the environment, insert thoughts, deceive, and that we're not in control. The fear isn't about technology—it's about existential collapse.This leads to a profound realization: the secrecy may not be about protecting advanced hardware, but about shielding humanity from a truth that could shatter our worldview. If the phenomenon is tied to consciousness, then our understanding of reality, free will, and identity is at stake.

Fertility Docs Uncensored is hosted by Dr. Carrie Bedient from the Fertility Center of Las Vegas, Dr. Susan Hudson from Texas Fertility Center, and Dr. Abby Eblen from Nashville Fertility Center, welcomes Dr. Ian Waldman, a reproductive endocrinologist with IVF Florida, to talk about what patients can do to plan ahead for IVF. Dr. Waldman emphasizes that one of the most important steps before starting IVF is taking care of yourself—both physically and emotionally. Enjoy the things that make you happy, optimize your health, and enter treatment feeling strong and supported. Trust your fertility team and make sure you have all your medications on hand, especially time-sensitive ones like your trigger shot. Planning ahead can make the process smoother and less stressful. Know when to contact your team after your egg retrieval, and don't hesitate to reach out if something doesn't feel right. Finally, try to avoid unnecessary stress, stay informed about when to expect updates from your clinic, and keep communication open with your physician so you can move through IVF with confidence and clarity. This podcast was sponsored by US Fertility.
Matt sits down with Tori Halford to talk about her raw and emotional IVF journey — from breaking off her engagement to facing infertility, miscarriage, and an emergency surgery after egg retrieval.

Fertility Docs Uncensored is hosted by Dr. Carrie Bedient from the Fertility Center of Las Vegas, Dr. Susan Hudson from Texas Fertility Center, and Dr. Abby Eblen from Nashville Fertility Center. For many patients, egg retrieval feels like the biggest unknown of the IVF journey. In this episode, your Fertility Docs take you behind the scenes to show exactly what happens on retrieval day. From the moment you arrive, you'll meet the team working to make your procedure smooth and safe—the recovery room nurse, circulating nurse, anesthesia provider, and the embryologist who will care for your eggs after retrieval. Of course, your doctor also plays a vital role, and we'll explain what she does during the procedure itself. We'll walk you through how long the procedure typically lasts, what you can expect to feel afterward, and the important milestones you'll need to meet before you're cleared to head home. You'll learn why egg retrieval is a carefully orchestrated team effort, and how every member of your care team is focused on your comfort and success. Whether you're preparing for your own retrieval or simply curious, this episode offers a reassuring, inside look. This podcast was sponsored by IVF Florida.
