When it's predictable and wildlife is well adapted, natural flooding can create a biological bonanza. In the Amazon River Basin, which holds one-fifth of the world's fresh water, annual rains can raise water levels 30 to 40 feet in just days. Forests turn into vast lakes, dotted with trees, while a massive push of sediment erects new islands almost overnight. It's a lush world that's home to some of the world's most iconic birds, including toucans, macaws, kingfishers, tiger-herons, and this Russet-backed Oropendola.More info and transcript at BirdNote.org.Want more BirdNote?

Wind isn't just a breeze, it's also an agent of change. Not metaphorical change—but literal, seasonal, even cosmological change that moves through bodies, weather, and even geopolitics. The energies of nature are not only magnificent forces that sculpt landscapes. But also unfold within us as a kind of inner weather.In this conversation with Christine Cannon, we continue our exploration of the celestial influences that shape our lives—not just in theory, but how these influences manifest in the world around us, and in the clinic. Christine draws from the rhythms of the Five Movements and Six Qi to trace how this year's inadequate metal has influenced the first part of the year, and what to expect as we move forward.Listen into this discussion as we explore the implications of excess fire and runaway wood, the potential “revenge” of water, and the subtle influence of seasonal delay. We'll also investigate the partnership between Imperial and Ministerial fire in bringing ideas from the still void of inspiration into manifest reality. The Shaoyin and Shaoyang—there's a reason for why they're both considered to be pivots.

Ultra Summer Pinterest SEO Strategies: Content Optimization Planning with SEO Expert, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS⁠⁠This episode's discussion centers on leveraging Pinterest for enhanced business visibility and SEO, emphasizing its role as a powerful, often underestimated visual search engine.Favour highlights strategic content optimization for Pinterest, including keyword integration and consistent posting, and compare its long lifespan for content to other social media platforms like Instagram. Favour also touch on the importance of linking social media efforts back to a main website for overall digital strategy and discuss utilizing analytics to refine marketing approaches across various online channels.FAQs1. What are the key differences and connections between Google SEO and Pinterest SEO?While both Google and Pinterest function as search engines, they operate with distinct approaches. Google is primarily a text-based search engine, albeit one that incorporates visual elements like images and videos (YouTube). Pinterest, on the other hand, is inherently a visual search engine, where text, audio (within video), and carousels contribute to its search algorithms. A fundamental connection lies in their shared goal of serving relevant information to users, valuing trust and relevance in content.2. Why is seasonal content optimization, especially for summer, crucial for businesses?Seasonal content optimization is vital because it aligns with the psychological and real-time experiences of the audience. By incorporating seasonal keywords like "summer" into content titles, descriptions, email campaigns, and even website links, businesses can tap into current user intent and create a subconscious connection. For example, "summer savings" codes are naturally more appealing during the summer months.3. How does Pinterest serve as an effective starting point for a customer's planning journey?Pinterest is described as a "beginning spot" for a user's search journey because people often turn to it in the early planning stages of an event or purchase, such as a party, graduation, or wedding. Its visual nature allows users to explore ideas and gather inspiration. For businesses, this means that content on Pinterest is encountered when users are asking foundational questions, making it an ideal platform for attracting early-stage interest and guiding potential customers towards a deeper understanding of products or services.4. What is the significant difference in content lifespan between Pinterest and other social media platforms like Instagram, and what are the implications?A key distinction is the content lifespan: a Pinterest pin can have a lifespan of up to 5 months, whereas an Instagram post might only be relevant for about 19 hours.This means that content on Pinterest offers "evergreen value," continuously attracting engagement over a much longer period without constant refreshing. In contrast, Instagram requires frequent content creation to maintain visibility.Digital Marketing Resources:>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our exclusive SEO Marketing community⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Latest blogs on SEO optimization and Online Marketing⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Book your Complimentary SEO Discovery Call⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Book Paid Marketing Consultation Call⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to We Don't PLAY Podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Brands We Love and Support⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Loving Me Beauty | Buy Vegan-based Luxury Products⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Zetvaa | Buy Premium Human Hair Extensions Online⁠

A new strategy for tackling rural crime across Wales will offer greater protection for people and wildlife in the countryside, according to the Welsh government. Priority areas include tackling damage to ancient monuments, or heritage crime, and attacks on livestock, with new awareness courses for animal owners. A new ban on the use of lead in ammunition has been announced by the UK government, in a bid to stop the toxic metal contaminating fields and waterways. Shot containing more than 1% lead and bullets with a lead content of more than 3% are to be prohibited. It's a long-awaited move that ministers say will protect iconic wildlife and improve water quality. There'll be a three year transition period, but conservation groups say they'd like to see it introduced straight away.All week we're taking a deep dive into the UK's shellfish industry. Almost 90% of the mussels produced in Scotland are grown in Shetland.  We visit a farm which produces 1000 tonnes a year on long ropes dotted on 24 sites around the islands.  Should British farms and supermarkets have to pay the travel and visa costs of seasonal staff? The idea's been suggested as a way of protecting workers travelling to the UK to pick fruit and vegetables, some of whom are taking out loans to get here, leaving them vulnerable to exploitation. The Employer Pays Principle feasibility study, jointly commissioned by the government and the Seasonal Worker Taskforce, looked into the idea which has support from some retailers and recruitment agencies. The National Farmers Union however, has concerns about the challenges growers would face if forced to cover these additional costs, from job cuts to reduced production.

Key Topics Covered The Quality vs. Accessibility Debate Pro Church Tools' Position: High-quality livestreams require dedicated mixing boards and professional expertise that most churches lack Matt & Jake's Pushback: 85-95% quality is achievable with proper fundamentals and doesn't require professional-level resources The Real Issue: Sometimes poor livestream quality stems from poor source material (musicianship, room acoustics) The Hard Truth About Audio Quality Matt's Honest Take: "Your livestream mix is not good because your musicians are not good" The Growth Mindset: Every great musician started as a not-so-great musician Foundation First: Master musicianship, room acoustics, and basic mixing before investing in expensive gear Who's Actually Watching Your Stream? Key Statistic: 35% of online church attenders are retirement age (12 points above average) Implications for Ministry: Need to consider accessibility, content relevance, and viewing habits Snowbird Effect: Many older viewers are traveling members staying connected to home church The Purpose Question What are we streaming for? Marketing tool for church visitors Connection for homebound members Seasonal/traveling member engagement Accessibility for those who can't attend in person Production Philosophy Start with fundamentals: Musicianship, room acoustics, basic mixing skills, proper lighting Avoid the gear trap: Don't buy expensive equipment without mastering the basics Quality target: Aim for "good enough" that serves your actual audience, not "perfect" that impresses other tech people Notable Quotes Jake: "You can compress a jackhammer, but it's still going to sound like a jackhammer." Matt: "If you're the sound guy trying to get an online mix that sounds good from a band that doesn't sound good in house, then good luck." Jake: "There's something magical that happens when you're in person in the room at worship every Sunday." Matt: "The top four pages on church websites are always: homepage, about us, staff, and livestream." Action Items for Churches Audit your fundamentals before investing in new gear Understand your actual livestream audience (hint: it might be older than you think) Optimize for accessibility - text size, audio levels, clear announcements Invest in musical training for your team Remember the goal: Complement, don't compete with, in-person worship Tools & Resources Mentioned Waves Real Tune plugin for pitch correction Importance of proper room acoustics Front-of-house mixing consoles for dual-purpose mixing Website analytics for understanding visitor behavior Discussion Questions Who is your church's livestream actually serving? Are you starting with the right foundational skills? How do you balance quality aspirations with realistic resource constraints? What role should livestreaming play in your overall ministry strategy? Related Topics for Future Episodes Room acoustics basics for churches Building a volunteer tech team Church website optimization Generational differences in worship preferences Cost-effective lighting solutions for churches This episode was a reaction to Pro Church Tools' video about online church. While we respectfully disagree on some technical points, we appreciate Brady and Alex for raising these important strategic questions about church technology.

We all have a favorite season. Whether you are head over heels for autumn, wistful over winter, salivating over spring, or in a steamy romance with summer, we can usually find something to appreciate with each turn of the wheel. As the summer days continue to heat up, let's lean into the magic of the warmth and light. Even if the heat is not your preference, you can still embrace the many gifts that summer has to offer… swims in the sea, early morning walks, late night campfires, and delicious ice cream cones are just the beginning! And if this is the time of year you yearn for, let's be sure to make the most of each hot, sunny moment! What am I reading?Secrets of a Scottish Isle by Erica Ruth Neubauerhttps://bookshop.org/a/111301/9781496741189A Grain, a Green, and a Bean by Gena Hamshawhttps://bookshop.org/a/111301/9781984863201https://bookshop.org/shop/witchywomanwalkingWhat am I playing on repeat? Right Round by Flo Rida and Kesha What's for dinner? Antipasto PitaIngredients:1 can cannellini beans 1 can artichoke hearts, drainedSun-dried or fresh tomatoes Roasted red pepper, fresh or jarredFresh greens of your choosing Balsamic or red-wine vinegarOlive oilSalt and pepperPita pockets Instructions: Slice pitas, stuff with beans and veggies, drizzle with olive oil and vinegar.

In this episode, Keith Kalfas shares a powerful lesson on keeping your emotions in check when running a landscaping business. He reflects on real experiences—like dealing with customer callbacks, weed regrowth after mulch jobs, and mold surprises—and how staying calm, informed, and professional is key to long-term success. Keith breaks down the mindset shift from overreacting to responding with clarity, encourages clear client communication, and reminds landscapers to charge what they're worth.      "Don't immediately admit to a mistake just because you're scared." – Keith Kalfas Topics Covered: Emotional discipline in business Dealing with callbacks and complaints Seasonal landscaping challenges Client communication Setting expectations in quotes Knowing your worth and pricing properly Learning through experience and mentorship Drainage, hydrostatic pressure, and property water flow Mindset growth from fear to leadership Key Takeaways Control Your Emotions—Lead With Logic Keith reminds us that running a business means facing tough feedback. But reacting emotionally can hurt more than help. Instead, pause, zoom in (literally and mentally), and respond with facts, not feelings. It's a game-changer for confidence and client trust.   Set Boundaries in Your Quotes—Protect Your Peace One simple phrase: “What's included, and what's excluded.” Keith shares how clearly outlining job details (even verbally) avoids costly assumptions. Whether it's removing a stump or skipping a garden bed, clarity = no surprises, no regrets.   You're Not Just Landscaping—You're Managing Expectations Whether it's weeds growing back after mulch or dog vomit mold showing up uninvited, clients need education, not excuses. Keith shows how staying informed, explaining calmly, and standing your ground (when you're right) earns long-term loyalty.   Connect with Keith Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/keithkalfas/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thelandscapingemployeetrap Website: https://www.keithkalfas.com/resources Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@keith-kalfas   Resources and Websites:
