The Mount // Week 12 // - Signs, Sands and Storms Don't be fooled by SIGNS Matthew 7:21 NIV 21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Romans 10:9-10 NIV 9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. Matthew 7:22-23 NIV 22 Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?' 23 Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!' Matthew 7:23 NIV 23 Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!' Matthew 7:24-27 NIV 24 “Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. 26 But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. 27 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.” Don't be fooled by SIGNS Don't be fooled by SANDS Psalm 23:1-2 NIV 1 The LORD is my shepherd, I lack nothing. 2 He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters… Faithfulness → Feeling → Formation Don't be fooled by SIGNS Don't be fooled by SANDS Don't be fooled by STORMS Matthew 7:24-27 NIV 24 “Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. 26 But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. 27 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.” Matthew 5:45b NIV 45…He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.

At 30, Eleanor Sands walked away from an unfulfilling corporate career and chose to break the cycle of unhappiness to build a life aligned with her values. She shares her belief that our past does not define our future, and that anything becomes possible when we learn to draw on our inner strength. In this conversation, Eleanor reflects on the emotional tipping point that led to her resignation, the creation and rapid growth of Wigmore Wednesdays, and how courage and community helped her navigate uncertainty. This episode is a powerful reminder that you can rewrite your story at any age by breaking the cycle, overcoming adversity and making meaningful connections KEY TAKEAWAY "I have always wanted to change my story. I've never wanted that to be where it ended." ABOUT THE GUEST – ELEANOR SANDS Eleanor Sands is the founder and CEO of Wigmore Wednesdays. While her life and success may appear effortless from the outside, behind them lies a story of extraordinary pain and resilience. Having survived years of childhood abuse that later led to the conviction of her abuser, Eleanor refused to let her experiences define who she would become. Instead, she discovered an inner strength that fuelled her ambition and shaped her outlook on life.

Der berühmte Prinz von Persien sprang und starb bereits Anfang der 90er über die Mattscheibe von Dom Schott - nur wenige Jahre nach dem Release des Originalspiels 1989. Und aus irgendeinem Grund dachte Dom, das seitdem nichts mehr in der Welt von Prince of Persia los war, bis Ubisoft den Adligen mit The Lost Crown 2024 ins moderne Spielregal zurückbrachte. Das war Quatsch, wie er mittlerweile weiß - denn dazwischen liegen einige Spiele, die Prince of Persia einen ganz neuen Anstrich verpassten. Und das wohl beste Spiel dieser Reihe ist The Sands of Time, das 2003 den Prinzen nach einem ersten missglückten Versuch vier Jahre zuvor endlich in die Dreidimensionalität holte. Dom hat diesen Fan-Liebling nie gespielt, holt das nun aber nach und hat sich dafür mit Martin Dietrich von Decode einen getreuen Begleiter geholt. Martin hat damals als Teenager The Sands of Time gespielt und zählt den Titel heute zu seinen Lieblingsspielen. Warum, wieso, weshalb? Klären wir alles im Vorgeplänkel!

Pregnancy loss and baby loss affect far more families than many of us realise, yet these experiences are still often surrounded by silence, misunderstanding and stigma. In this episode, I'm joined by Sands, the UK's leading pregnancy and baby loss charity, to explore the realities of loss and the impact it can have on individuals, families and working lives. Together, we discuss why pregnancy and baby loss can feel so difficult to talk about, the hidden impact of grief in the workplace, and what managers, colleagues and organisations can do to provide meaningful support. In this episode, we explore: Why pregnancy loss and baby loss remain hidden experiences The emotional impact of loss and grief Returning to work whilst navigating loss How colleagues and managers can offer compassionate support Common responses that may unintentionally cause harm What a pregnancy-loss-aware workplace looks like Practical ways organisations can better support employees through loss Whether you're a leader, colleague, friend or family member, this conversation offers valuable insights into how we can create more understanding and compassionate workplaces for those affected by pregnancy and baby loss. Content note: This episode discusses miscarriage, pregnancy loss, stillbirth, baby loss and grief.

You already know the feeling. You put your phone down after an hour of scrolling and somehow feel more drained than before you picked it up. Maybe you're in a room full of people you love, and everyone's looking at their screen instead of each other. Maybe you've been quietly wondering if the way you've been living and connecting is actually working for you anymore. If any of that sounds familiar, this conversation is going to feel like coming up for air. I brought Julie Sands back into The Ripple Effect Podcast, and I'll be honest with you: time completely disappeared during this one. Julie is one of the most curious, well-read, and genuinely giving people I have ever had the pleasure of calling a friend. And her story alone is worth the listen. She started her career as an architect, then moved into project management, public works administration, and business development for a construction cooperative. But every single transition she has made has been driven by one thing: a deep commitment to understanding people and helping them show up as their best selves. She is an author, podcast host, and entrepreneur, and she recently became a chapter leader for Mothers Against Media Addiction (MAMA), an organization dedicated to raising awareness about the very thing we talk about in this episode. That is not a coincidence. That is Julie living out exactly what she believes. We got into what the research actually says about what makes people happy (and it is probably not what most of us spend our days chasing), why doom scrolling is quietly reshaping the way we relate to the people right in front of us, and what it really looks like to pursue meaningful relationships in a world that is designed to keep you distracted. We also touched on something I think a lot of people in that halftime stage of life are feeling but not saying out loud: the quiet question of what you actually want to do with the time you have left. What lights you up? What have you been putting off? What does your real purpose look like now that some of those earlier pressures have started to lift? Julie is also running two podcasts, working on a book, and the way her brain connects ideas is something you genuinely have to hear for yourself. Come hang out with us. You will not regret it. Want to go even deeper? Check out Patreon for exclusive content and behind-the-scenes insights. And if you are ready for something more immersive, our Connect + Grow Ripple coaching program is a full year of community, coaching, and accountability designed to help you build more meaningful relationships and create an even bigger Ripple out there in the world.

Resting for the night, something calls to Pesto, and they can't help but investigate Music from Dark Fantasy Studio and author/composer Nicolas Jeudy Music from Ovani Sound Intro/Outro Music - "Reaching Horizons" by Alex Atlas (Our GM)
Photography Historian and Curator Audrey Sands joins PhotoWork with Sasha Wolf to discuss her book, Lisette Model: The Jazz Pictures (Eakins Press Foundation). Drawing on years of research, Sands presents Lisette Model's rarely seen archive of photographs of 1950s jazz legends, including Louis Armstrong, Billie Holiday, Duke Ellington, Percy Heath, Miles Davis, and Dizzy Gillespie. Sands and Wolf discuss the rise of fine art photography as a collectible medium in the latter half of the 20th century, the role of museums and institutions in shaping the narrative of photographic history, and the role of the historian in editing and interpreting an artist's work posthumously. https://harvardartmuseums.org/about/press-media/audrey-sands-appointed-associate-curator-of-photography-at-the-harvard-art-museums https://www.instagram.com/audreyleesands/ Audrey Sands is a historian of photography and curator who specializes in twentieth-century American photography.. She holds a Ph.D. and M.Phil. in the History of Art from Yale University, an M.St. in the History of Art and Visual Culture from the University of Oxford, and a B.A. in Art History from Barnard College. Since February 2025, Sands has served as the Richard L. Menschel Associate Curator of Photography at the Harvard Art Museums, where she oversees a collection of approximately 75,000 photographs and time-based media ranging from the early 19th century to the present. Her appointment followed a postdoctoral fellowship as Andrew W. Mellon Postdoctoral Curatorial Fellow in the Department of Photographs at the National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C. (2022–25), during which she contributed to the exhibitions Gordon Parks: Camera Portraits from the Corcoran Collection (2024–25) and the multi-venue Photography and the Black Arts Movement, 1955–1985 (2025–26). Prior to the NGA, from 2019 to 2022, Sands held the Norton Family Assistant Curator of Photography position at the Center for Creative Photography (CCP), University of Arizona—a joint appointment with Phoenix Art Museum—where her exhibitions included Freedom Must Be Lived: Marion Palfi's America, 1940–1978 (2021–22) and Farewell Photography: The Hitachi Collection of Postwar Japanese Photographs, 1961–1989 (2022). Earlier curatorial positions include the Department of Photographs at The Museum of Modern Art, the National Gallery of Art, and the J. Paul Getty Museum. Sands has been the lead scholar on the work of photographer Lisette Model for over a decade, beginning with her Yale dissertation, “Lisette Model and the Inward Turn of Photographic Modernism.” Her most recent publication, Lisette Model: The Jazz Pictures (Eakins Press Foundation, 2025), realized a suppressed collaboration between Model and Langston Hughes that had been shelved during the McCarthy era, publishing for the first time nearly 200 of Model's approximately 1,500 jazz negatives alongside Hughes's original essay and new scholarship by Sands. Her ongoing research on flash photography—supported by a 2021 Curatorial Research Fellowship from the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts—is developing toward a publication and exhibition titled The Shape of Light: History, Ethics, and Aesthetics of Flash Photography.
Was life better before the digital era? That's the rhetorical question at the heart of Golden Sands, the immersive, totally analog experience created by Rachel Lichtman. She recently jumped in the car to talk about her upcoming Programme 4: The Affiliate Sales Presentation show at Evanston's SPACE on May 27th. Described as a station from an alternate timeline that simply never stopped broadcasting, the traveling show forces audiences to sit with media in a way that modern streaming interfaces disrupt. Lichtman notes that our modern "handheld casinos" offer so many options that choice paralysis sets in, torpedoing our attention and severing our cultural connection. I love the fact that these shows rely purely on old-school, word-of-mouth curation to bring people together.Described as a station from an alternate timeline that simply never stopped broadcasting, the traveling show forces audiences to sit with media in a way that modern streaming interfaces disrupt. Lichtman notes that our modern "handheld casinos" offer so many options that choice paralysis sets in, torpedoing our attention and severing our cultural connection. I love the fact that these shows rely purely on old-school, word-of-mouth curation to bring people together. The event is a highly collaborative, scripted performance inspired by the bizarre world of corporate industrial musicals and 1970s television. The performance features a stellar cast of local and national talent, including Chicago media legend Rich Koz, Dag Juhlin, Jon Langford, Kelly Hogan, Joel Murray, Nora O'Connor, and Chris Murphy. Dag brings "Rod Kellogg" to life, a buttoned-up host surrounded by a world of mid-century grooviness he doesn't quite understand. With custom set designs, a live Rhodes piano providing a nostalgic soundscape, Programme 4 offers a needed, temporary escape from the digital world. I can't wait.

On this episode of The Wisconsin Sportsman, Pierce sits down with Chris Firkus of Sandhill Fly Fishing to dive learn all about fly fishing for big trout in the Central Sands region of Wisconsin! Chris grew up fishing the sand streams of central Wisconsin and has spent the better part of his life learning and exploring these secluded waters in search of big trout! The guys dive into Chris's early years of commercial fly tying, how these streams differ from Driftless Streams, the importance of frogs in a trout's diet, streamer color theory, necessary tackle and gear for these streams, night fishing tactics, capitalizing on the hex hatch, and the importance of community in the outdoor space. All that and more in this week's episode! A massive thanks to Chris for coming on the show and sharing his knowledge!

In today's episode, we spoke with Jacob Sands, MD. Dr Sands is the associate chief of the Lowe Center for Thoracic Oncology, Oncology Medical Director of the International Patient Center, and physician at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, as well as an assistant professor at Harvard Medical School in Boston, Massachusetts. In our exclusive interview, Dr Sands discussed the rapidly evolving treatment landscape for small cell lung cancer (SCLC), emphasizing both the progress made with immunotherapy and the ongoing challenges associated with this aggressive disease. He noted that outcomes now vary widely, with some patients experiencing long-term durable disease control following checkpoint inhibitor therapy, while others continue to have limited benefit from currently available treatments.A major focus of the discussion centered on tarlatamab-dlle (Imdelltra), the DLL3-targeting bispecific T-cell engager approved for relapsed SCLC. Sands described tarlatamab as a “new paradigm” therapy, highlighting results from the phase 3 DeLLphi-304 trial (NCT05740566) showing superiority in progression-free survival, overall survival, symptom improvement, and toxicity outcomes vs chemotherapy in the second-line setting. He also reviewed the evolution of DLL3 as a therapeutic target, explaining how earlier efforts with rovalpituzumab tesirine (Rova-T) helped establish the foundation for newer, more effective DLL3-directed approaches. The conversation also explored the growing role of molecular subtyping in SCLC, including emerging data involving ASCL1, NEUROD1, and POU2F3 transcription factor subsets. Although Sands cautioned that these findings remain investigational, he noted that subtype-driven treatment selection may eventually help personalize therapy in SCLC.Sands also addressed real-world experience with tarlatamab, including higher observed rates of cytokine release syndrome and neurologic toxicities among patients who would not have qualified for clinical trials. Despite these risks, he emphasized that many heavily pretreated patients with poor performance status or brain metastases have still achieved meaningful and durable clinical benefit.Finally, the discussion covered recent updates to National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines, including the establishment of tarlatamab as a preferred second-line standard of care regardless of chemotherapy-free interval. Looking ahead, Sands highlighted the growing pipeline of investigational therapies in SCLC, including CAR T-cell therapies, antibody-drug conjugates, radioligand therapies, and additional T-cell engagers, stressing the importance of clinical trial referral and collaboration between academic and community oncology centers.

Interview with Greg Martyr, Executive Chairman, Capital MetalsOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/capital-metals-lsecmet-172-grade-mineral-sands-project-targets-fid-by-year-end-2025-8088Recording date: 12th May 2026Capital Metals is advancing the Taprobane mineral sands project in Sri Lanka, positioning it as one of the highest-grade deposits globally, with an average heavy mineral grade of 17.6% compared to a global average below 5%. Located on the country's east coast, the project has gained momentum following Sri Lanka's 2026 approval of its first national minerals policy in over two decades, which prioritizes mining as a key driver of foreign investment after the country's debt restructuring.The regulatory overhaul includes shifting oversight of mining to the Ministry of Industry and introducing standardized procedures to improve transparency and reduce corruption risks. Capital Metals has already secured two mining licenses and deployed a 30-person team, with construction targeted for the fourth quarter of 2026 pending final approvals.The project's phased development strategy is designed to minimize upfront capital while enabling rapid production. Stage 1 requires approximately $25 million in funding, largely financed through debt and offtake agreements, and is expected to generate around $40 million in annual revenue with strong margins. The projected internal rate of return exceeds 75%, significantly above industry norms. A straightforward wet concentration process further supports low-cost operations.Taprobane also offers scalability, with plans to expand production in three stages and optional investment in a $10 million mineral separation plant to produce higher-value refined products. Beyond organic growth, the company is exploring consolidation opportunities within Sri Lanka's emerging mineral sands sector.With only a small portion of its 60-kilometer strike length explored, the project also presents substantial upside potential. Combined with favorable policy reforms and rising global demand for mineral sands used in industrial applications, Taprobane represents a strategically timed development in a rapidly evolving mining jurisdiction.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/capital-metalsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
