To Align with your Divine within is to Align with your humanity. Essence of our humanity is under attack- not by demons, aliens, or Artificial Intelligence per se, but by self appointed self anointed global leaders who are hellbent on destroying our spirit of humanity. It was my experience as detailed in ACCESS DENIED For Reasons of National Security that these globalist perpeTraitors follow a linear DARPA generated plan. They believe all creation, our planet included, is flawed in its divine design, just as they believe our bodies need their 78+ vaccines to fix ‘genetic flaws'. These dark perpeTraitors feel justified in ‘saving' our planet from their belief the sun is destroying it. DARPA's conclusion inspires believers to play god by cross breeding genetically altered humanity with AI while also actively working to block our sun. The audacity of these power mongers is inconceivable!As my daughter Kelly observed, “Sun is the SOULar battery of all existence on earth.”We need sunlight for optimum mental health and for grounding into our true nature. Our nature is our humanity- who we are intended to be and how life is intended to be lived.To disrupt our essence of humanity, mind control is being used to block our ability to Align with our Divine within, which in turn inhibits access to soul expression, strength of spirit, and our innate energy source of infinite power of love. Without free thought, there is no free will soul expression. No ability to remember who we are and why we are here. No capacity for connecting with each other on energetic, loving levels of compassion, understanding, and unity. United we stand against these perpeTraitors of humanity who mask themselves as gods to lord over our existence.Equally as alarming as discussed by George Bush Sr. at Bohemian Grove in 1985 is that if their New World Order agenda fails, then those playing god will destroy our planet. Wouldn't blocking the sun do that anyway? Semantics aside, the end game of these dark negative energy force perpeTraitors is our demise. When we Align with our Divine within, we have wisdom. Wisdom is our saving grace to outthink criminal minds and AI's linear plan every time. Preservation of free thought is key. Knowledge is our defense against their mind control.Traumatic fear is the basis of all mind control as puppetmasters manipulate humanity's brain defense mechanism against incomprehensible trauma to their advantage. It was found through Hitler/Himmler research that there is no trauma more horrific on the human mind than sexual abuse of a child prior to age 5 while the brain is still forming. Similarly satanic ritual abuse has the same effect of shutting down neuron pathways of conscious thought, leaving the subconscious wide open to being led, manipulated, and programmed to drive future thoughts.Many children, including myself, have experienced trauma beyond comprehension to render us compliant and malleable for controllers' vision of how life should be lived based on their own fears that the world is ending. Our humanity is under attack because our strength of spirit is perpeTraitors' greatest fear. Many children, me included, witnessed other children being sacrificed at their alter of justification. Many victims of traumatic mind control died, which is also in keeping with depopulation agenda to reduce humanity's numbers to a much more manageable size. Abusers have no remorse in their justifications. Yet children who witness and experience the demise of others are left with the same traumatic dilemma that most military veterans experience:Why did I survive when others didn't?Read the full article on Cathy's website Here!
What is repentance? What role does it play in salvation? What about in the daily life of the believer? Why do Christians still struggle with sin? Is it the presence of Satan or demons? Or do we have a sinful nature? What is the flesh? *previously aired

Learning English grammar and vocabulary is excellent fun! However, to master the language, you must use it genuinely to discuss various topics and learn new things in English. That means discussing issues and themes you like and those you do not. I will be the first to tell you perfection is impossible because no one and nothing is perfect. With that said, it is human nature to strive for perfection. Maintain your discipline and learn something new every day. This is a short introduction to the English conversation lesson, Ultra-Processed Foods. I'm sure it'll make you rethink what you eat.

This session is a Q & A I did in the Language Therapy Advance Foundations member's group relating to how to support students through semantic study and working on complex syntax. I addressed the following FAQs:“How do I help students who struggle to define and describe words without making them prompt-dependent?”“How do I make semantic study more contextualized?”“What's the difference between a “task-based” goal and a “strategy-based” goal, and which type of goal should I be using for language and executive functioning?”I also provide examples of goals for observable behaviors vs. goals that focus on the process of getting to that behavior or end output. Highlights of this session include:✅Using the explicit instruction framework: “I do, we do, you do.”✅Using pauses, reflective questions, sentence starters, direct repetition, and declarative statements (hint: we should be using a blend of all these things.)✅Where we SHOULD use explicit, repetitive, “decontextualized” tasks in therapy for purposes of cognitive priming. ✅Why students need a blend of structured and unstructured tasks (from decontextualized to contextualized). This session came from a Q & A I did in Language Therapy Advance Foundations, my program that helps SLPs create a system for language therapy.

Rob Houghton, CEO of reallymoving joins the Today's Conveyancer Podcast to discuss what home moving was like before the iPhone. reallymoving.com is a comparison site for for home moving services and recently celebrated 25 years in business. In a fascinating discussion about the evolution of online marketing, Rob discusses what the world of online was like in 1999 and the evolution of web search in the following years. He explains how the model of bidding for keywords developed, alongside the process of building websites that provided information for consumers.One of the criticisms directed at comparison sites is they simply encourage the race to the bottom on price; that by providing information driven by price, firms have no choice but to offer lower prices to be competitive. It's a fair comment says Rob, but critically he describes reallymoving as a "comparison site", not a "price comparison site." Semantics perhaps but an important distinction he says as while price is important, there are other factors like reviews, location, and information about a firm's approach to client communication (home moving milestone apps etc) that inform a client's decision.He says after price, reviews is the next most important way people choose their conveyancer, adding most people who convert through the website do not choose the lowest price.Given the changes the business has been through over the last 25 years, looking ahead for the next 25 years is hugely challenging. No question the continued digitisation of the industry will continue apace say Rob, and as far as lead generation is concerned, there will be a deeper integration between lead generators and firms, and firms and their clients; almost certainly powered by artificial intelligence. But Rob concludes on the thought that in 1999 comparison sites were largely an unknown quantity. Fast forward 25 years and they are now commonplace and are hugely powerful and important to the consumer experience when it comes to travel, leisure, financial services and many other sectors.

Elsie the cat has a set of 120 buttons programmed with words. She uses them to lie, swear, apologise, express grief and frustration and love to her human, the author Mary Robinette Kowal, who talks about what's involved in learning to communicate via language buttons with companion animals. And animal behaviour expert Zazie Todd explains how animals might be interacting with human language. This is the first half of a two-parter: in the next episode, some talking dogs - and their humans - come to visit, and we hear about the kinds of things you find out about what your animal friend is really thinking, and how it changes the ways you communicate with other humans too.

bava basra 150: semantics by “Dafsplaining”: daf yomi made simple
Syntactic use is considered an “academic” skill that's useful for reading comprehension and writing, but the impact of sentence comprehension goes way beyond school.Our ability to comprehend messages at the word and sentence level in oral and written language has a huge impact on our ability to function.So when clinicians ask me, “Should I focus on syntax, or should I focus on life skills?”, my response is that syntax IS a life skill.The same is true about semantic knowledge because of the significant impact background knowledge has in our ability to navigate in functional situations.Yet scaffolding for students who are not yet able to read and write can be challenging; which is why I wanted to share two questions on this topic from a session done with my Language Therapy Advance Foundation's members' group. In this session, I share:✅Examples of complex syntax that may occur during functional tasks, like signing up for medical appointments, applying for a job, or grocery shopping.✅Why effective vocabulary instruction in content areas, such as science and social studies, is essential for positive life outcomes.✅Scaffolding syntactic study for nonreaders or emergent readers.✅Does it make sense to do semantic feature analysis with a student who has an intellectual disability?✅Following directions, topic maintenance, and self-advocacy: What language skills do we need to meet these type of goals, and should even we be writing IEP goals for these skills? In this episode, I mentioned the following episodes of De Facto Leaders:EP 102: The science of reading: A team approach (with Brett Stevens) Link here: https://drkarendudekbrannan.com/ep-102-the-science-of-reading-a-team-approach-with-brett-stevens/EP 180: The relationship of language and literacy and involvement with the justice system (with Dr. Shameka Stewart) Link here: https://drkarendudekbrannan.com/ep-180-the-relationship-of-literacy-and-language-skills-and-involvement-with-the-justice-system-with-dr-shameka-stewart/EP 181: Developmental language disorder: Impacts on literacy and life outcomes beyond school (with Dr. Karla McGregor) Link here: https://drkarendudekbrannan.com/ep-181-developmental-language-disorder-impacts-on-literacy-and-life-beyond-school-with-dr-karla-mcgregor/In this episode I mention Language Therapy Advance Foundations, my program that helps SLPs create a system for language therapy.

There is always more taxonomy work to be done than there are practitioners to do it. Fran Alexander's solution to this imbalance is to democratize taxonomy practice. Fran's work actually spans the full range of semantic practices, from simple term lists to taxonomies, thesauruses, and ontologies and knowledge graphs. Wherever she's working in this span of activities, she's always happy to bring other practitioners along with her. https://ellessmedia.com/csi/fran-alexander/
Through her taxonomy and other information architecture work, Michele Ann Jenkins helps people across the organizations she works with align their mental models and terminology usage. This alignment of concerns and language forms the foundation of the semantic architecture that is so crucial to modern content systems. https://ellessmedia.com/csi/michele-ann-jenkins/

Many autistic people enjoy eating food combinations that are considered “weird” by society. Although “disordered” eating can often underlie the creation of odd meals, it's critical to invite compassion and curiosity before accusing the behaviors of being “the eating disorder talking.” In today's episode of the Liv Label Free Podcast, Livia Sara and her co-host Mike share some of their favorite “weird” food combinations! We also cover past treatment experiences and emphasize how different cultures have different ideas of what's “normal.” Get a taste of what we talk about: Fast Food Memories A Diabolical History of Potatoes A Very, Very Autistic Rant on the Semantics of Pancakes Mike's Unforgivable Sin Against a Hot Dog High Class Peanut Butter A Brief History of Chicken and Waffles

In the final talk of our Semantics series, Rob discusses why this simple word has sparked controversy and fear throughout history. Grace is the unearned favor of God—a gift that offers love, acceptance, and security without any conditions. He unpacks how Grace disrupts religious control by eliminating the need to earn God's favor through actions and empowers us to become the people we're meant to be.

Chad discusses the concept of salvation, moving beyond the transactional view. Instead of seeing salvation as a mere exchange, he presents it as a journey toward wholeness and participation in the divine life. He explores the deeper questions of what we are saved from and what we are saved to, offering a more holistic understanding of salvation that emphasizes restoration and renewal.
Chad explores the meaning of judgment within the context of love and restoration. He challenges common misconceptions that often portray judgment as harsh and punitive, offering instead a perspective that sees it as a process of healing and renewal. He encourages listeners to embrace a model of restorative justice, one that reflects the compassionate and transformative nature of love. This episode invites you to rethink how judgment can be a force for positive change, guiding us toward love, justice, and a healthier relationship with God.
The term ‘nil' refers to the absence of value, but we often imbue it with much more meaning than just that. Today, hosts Joël and Stephanie discuss the various ways we tend to project extra semantics onto nil and the implications of this before unpacking potential alternatives and trade-offs. Joël and Stephanie highlight some of the key ways programmers project additional meaning onto nil (and why), like when it's used to create a guest session, and how this can lead to bugs, confusion, and poor user experiences. They discuss solutions to this problem, like introducing objects for improved readability, before taking a closer look at the implications of excessive guard clauses in code. Our hosts also explore the three-state Boolean problem, illustrating the pitfalls of using nullable Booleans, and why you should use default values in your database. Joël then shares insights from the Elm community and how it encourages rigorous checks and structured data modeling to manage nil values effectively. They advocate for using nil only to represent truly optional data, cautioning against overloading nil with additional meanings that can compromise code clarity and reliability. Joël also shares a fun example of modeling a card deck, explaining why you might be tempted to add extra semantics onto nil, and why the joker always inevitably ends up causing chaos! Key Points From This Episode The project Joël is working on and why he's concerned about bugs and readability. Potential solutions for a confusing constant definition in a nested module. A client work update from Stephanie: cleaning up code and removing dead dependencies. How she used Figjam to discover dependencies and navigate her work. Today's topic: how programmers project extra semantics onto nil. What makes nil really tricky to use, like forcing you to go down a default path. How nil sweeps the cases you don't want to think too hard about under the rug. Extra semantics that accompany nil (that you might not know about) like a guest session. Examples of how these semantics mean different things in different contexts. How these can lead to bugs, hard-to-find knowledge, confusion, and poor user experiences. Introducing objects to replace extra nil semantics, improve readability, and other solutions. Some of the reasons why programmers tend to project extra semantics onto nil. How to notice that nil has additional meanings, and when to model it differently. The implications of excessive guard clauses in code. An overview of the three-state Boolean problem with nullable Booleans. Connecting with the Elm community: how it can help you conduct more rigorous checks. Some of the good reasons to have nil as a value in your database. The benefits of using nil only to represent truly optional data.
