Send us a textHave you ever had a stressful or tramatic experience and your body begins to involuntarily shake?  Have you also tried to stop the shaking?  It is very common in our culture to do so, but this shaking is a key to processing stress and trauma.In this episode, I welcome Siv Shields, a chiropractor from Norway with a deep background in meditation and various stress relief practices. We dive into the fascinating topic of neurogenic tremoring, a natural mechanism our bodies use to release stress and trauma through involuntary shaking. Siv shares her journey, including her discovery and training in this technique, and explains how it can benefit those dealing with chronic stress, and trauma. We discuss the importance of understanding and allowing our bodies to naturally release tension, and Siv provides insights on integrating this practice into various therapeutic and daily routines for overall well-being. I'm excited to share this powerful tool with you and offer ways to learn more about it.In this episode:Siv's Journey and Professional BackgroundDiscovering Neurogenic TremoringUnderstanding Neurogenic TremoringPractical Applications and BenefitsChallenges and MisconceptionsHow to Learn and Practice Neurogenic TremoringConclusion and Special OfferLearn more about Neurogenic Integration:WebsiteInstagramYoutubeLinkedInDiscount Codes:1.

Trump administration policies have left about 40,000 Afghan refugees who served the U.S. military in limbo. The Special Immigrant Visa (SIV) program has been paused under Trump's executive order, leaving Afghan allies as targets of the Taliban. In Rochester, the nonprofit Keeping Our Promise has expedited its work to resettle refugees, but that work grows more difficult by the day. This hour, we discuss the state of the SIV program and how it's affecting Afghan refugees who were approved to come to Rochester. Our guests: Ellen Smith, executive director of Keeping Our Promise Stephen Cady, veteran and volunteer with Keeping Our Promise Z.K., IT engineer

V. E. Schwab, autorka bestselleru Neviditeľný život Addie LaRueovej, otvára nové dvere do sveta, ktorý poznáte z trilógie Odtiene mágie. Kedysi dávno existovali štyri svety, naskladané jeden vedľa druhého ako stránky v knihe, a každý z nich pulzoval fantastickou mocou. Spájalo ich jediné mesto: Londýn. Mágia však planula čoraz intenzívnejšie, a tak museli byť dvere medzi Londýnmi zapečatené v zúfalej snahe zachrániť ich obyvateľov. Mágov, ktorí dokázali tieto dvere otvoriť, postupom času ubúdalo, až napokon ostali len traja - Kell Maresh z Červeného Londýna, Delilah Bardová zo Sivého Londýna a Holland Vosijk z Bieleho Londýna. Posledných sedem rokov sa však v hlavnom meste veľmi nezdržiavali - a v Bielom Londýne sa objavila nová Antari menom Kosika, ktorá nastúpila na trón namiesto Hollanda. Mladá kráľovná ochotne kŕmi mesto krvou, aj tou svojou, hrozí však, že jej rastúci náboženský zápal všetkých pohltí. V Červenom Londýne zatiaľ musí kráľ Rhy Maresh čeliť rebelom, odhodlaným zvrátiť všeobecný úbytok magickej moci tak, že eliminujú kráľovskú rodinu. Mozaiku starých priateľov a nových nepriateľov dopĺňa dievča s nezvyčajnou magickou schopnosťou a prístrojom, ktorý by mohol zmeniť osudy všetkých štyroch svetov. Volá sa Tes a len ona jediná ich dokáže spojiť - alebo všetko zničiť. Číta: Zuzana Jurigová Kapráliková

The spread of high-risk human and animal diseases across borders in the last five years has clearly demonstrated that the best-laid plans can go wrong when it comes to infectious disease control and prevention. In fact, North American and European countries proved decades ago that swine diseases like ASF and classical swine fever can be eradicated through effective government policies, even without ideal vaccines. However, the world has since changed.Joining our Ann Hess to discuss this topic and more from the PRRS Symposium in Chicago is Dr. Jishu Shi of Kansas State University. Dr. Jishu Shi's research team develops vaccine adjuvants, novel diagnostic assays and vaccines for swine infectious diseases.

Odkiaľ prichádzajú námety a inšpirácia na tvorbu príbehov? Ide naozaj o príbehy, ktoré sa stali? Čo je v príbehoch založené na faktoch a čo je dofabulované? Prečo radi počúvame strašidelné príbehy a prečo nás fascinujú udalosti, ktoré sa stali v dávnej minulosti? Prečo nás aj v súčasnej dobe dokáže ovládať iracionálny strach? Prečo je počúvanie true crime a mystery príbehov zdraviu prospešné a prílišna racionalita nám môže škodiť? Vytráca sa zo sveta magickosť?

Nie je to tak dávno, čo vydajadychtivé ženy verili, že si pravú lásku dokážu pričarovať. Pomáhali si riekankami, bylinkami, rituálmi či rôznymi „magickými“ predmetmi. Jedným z nich bol aj sivý kameň. Povera o Sivom kameni je známa najmä v slovenských a českých tradíciách. Tento kameň je často spájaný s magickými a mystickými vlastnosťami, najmä v kontexte ochrany a predpovedania budúcnosti. V niektorých regiónoch sa tiež verilo, že ak si žena nájde Sivý kameň a nosí ho pri sebe, napríklad v náhrdelníku alebo ako amulet, môže jej to pomôcť pri hľadaní pravého partnera.Tento kameň sa tiež v niektorých verziách považuje za prostriedok na ochranu lásky, aby vzťah bol stabilný a odolal vonkajším vplyvom. Ak sa kameň vráti do pôdy alebo ho niekto stratí, môže to podľa niektorých verzií znamenať neúspech v láske alebo ukončenie vzťahu. Vypočujte si príbeh Zuzany, ktorá si za pomoci čarov chcela pripútať muža. Tie mu však zobrali to najcennejšie, čo mal – jeho dušu.

Jacqui Heinrich at Fox: Afghani Nasir Ahmad Tawhedi, who is alleged to have been scheming up an Election Day terrorist attack, was supposedly vetted for Siv status, but it's recently surfaced that this wasn't the case. Meanwhile, Tren de Aragua added San Antonio to its list of hot beds. It's a scary thought, but do you think we'll experience a terrorist attack because of the Biden (Kamala) Administration?    Support the show: http://www.wbap.com/chris-krok/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

That study was completed after many interviews with LTG Karl Eikenberry who was then assigned to NATO, just prior to his selection as Ambassador to Afghanistan.From 2008-2009 Jason attended Arabic language training at DLI until the day LTG McChrystal was nominated by President Obama to command ISAF. He was immediately ordered to the Pentagon to prepare LTG McChrystal for senate confirmation and to assist him when he took command in Kabul.2009-2010 As ADC to LTG McChrystal, Jason helped prepare him for his assignment and attended all meetings with Legislative and Executive branch leaders in Washington. Within hours of the Senate confirmation, they flew to Brussels to meet with NATO leaders and then onwards to Kabul Afghanistan. In Kabul Jason helped GEN McChrystal form trusting relationships with the same Afghan leaders Jason worked closely with when they first formed the government in 2002.For the next 2 months Jason traveled with GEN McChrystal to over half the provinces to listen to NATO and Afghan forces, and Afghan leaders to better understand the war.  Jason assisted COMISAF during the strategic review of the U.S. and NATO Afghanistan policy, often quietly liaising between GEN McChrystal and Ambassador Eikenberry, his new and old bosses.After the strategic review was sent to CENTCOM Jason was selected to initiate and design the NATO interagency team focused on reintegration — i.e., how former insurgents could rejoin society. GEN McChrystal loaned Jason to support the incoming Reintegration Advisor who had worked on a similar mission in Iraq and would carry out sensitive diplomatic missions.As the Military Assistant and Political Advisor to retired British Lt Gen Sir Graeme Lamb. They worked with the Afghan government as they developed their peace and reintegration policy with foreign governments, diplomats, and international organizations. This also helped launch the US/NATO peace process and made Jason one of the insiders on Afghan peace talks for over a decade.2010-2014After a year in Dari (Afghan Farsi) language training at DLI, and graduation from the Army Command and General Staff College, Jason was assigned to the Joint Chiefs of Staff's Afghanistan and Pakistan Task Force. In that role, he led two of the highest-level interagency teams of Afghanistan and Pakistan experts in providing products and briefings for the Joint Chiefs of Staff and OSD leadership, and the White House.  Also in that role, his teams helped prepare four different Generals to assume senior commands in Afghanistan. One of his team's key efforts was monitoring and helping U.S. leaders prepare for diplomatic negotiations with the Taliban.2015-2021After retiring in 2015, Jason continued his focus on Afghanistan and Islam as a professor at numerous institutes and continued to advise the U.S. and Afghan governments, and international bodies.From 2016 to 2017, he served as an advisor on the Presidential Transition Team's National Security cell focused on the Afghan peace process and foreign relations with Islamic nations. He contributed ideas to both the 2017 National Security Strategy and 2018 National Strategy for Counterterrorism.From 2017 onwards he served as an advisor on conflict resolution to the U.S. government, NATO member states, parts of the U.N., the Afghan President's NSC staff, and the Afghan National Defense and Security Forces leadership.Jason was invited to give presentations at the 2019 and 2020 Central and South Asia Military Intelligence conferences at U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM). His topics included the future of the ANDSF, and the Unconventional Warfare efforts of Pakistan against Afghan and NATO forces.Jason led a USIP project team to assess post-conflict security in Afghanistan that culminated in a an invitation from the Afghan President and UN Chief in Kabul to give a presentation to over 70 nations at the 2020 U.N. Donor Conference on Afghanistan in Geneva.A second USIP project allowed his team to remain involved in the peace process until August 2021 as part of a U.S. Institute of Peace project authorized to conduct Track-2 diplomacy while talking to the Afghan government, various parts of Afghan society, and Taliban supporters.From 2019-2021 during both USIP projects his team took part in the USIP-led discussions that contributed to the congressionally-mandated Afghanistan Study Group Report. “A Pathway for Peace in Afghanistan” was published in February 2021.August 2021 OnwardsAfter the collapse of the Afghan republic while Jason was virtually assisting the evacuation of at-risk Afghans from Kabul, he and his colleagues formed the Global Friends of Afghanistan non-profit (GFA) to speak and write about Afghanistan and ensure the topic of Afghanistan was not removed from the daily news, and to help Afghans raise their voices to the outside world. On 1 September 2022 GFA held their inaugural annual conference with Georgetown University to discuss the evacuation and resettlement of Afghans, and the humanitarian crisis and security collapse in Afghanistan. Writing ExperienceSummaryJason has written 5 books, was on the editing team of the FAO Association International Affairs Journal, and was the senior editor for A Voice for Two Nations blog. He has published over 225 articles, essays, and news reports in over 40 outlets. He is a mentor to writers and a member of the Military Writers Guild, where he edits and co-authors with new writers.

Byl považován za největší kickboxerský talent domácí scény. V posledním roce se ale jméno Tadeáše Růžičky skloňuje pouze s výtržnictvím, bitkami na ulici a soudem. Organizace RFA a IAF dali šestadvacetiletému muži šanci na změnu jeho nepříznivé životní trajektorie – milionový duel s Václavem Sivákem. Na povrch však vyvstalo jeho kriminální jednání na koupališti v Břevnově, a zápas tak vedení lig zrušilo. „Má špatné období, které si musí vyřešit. Pokud se napraví a bude už jen brutálně dobrý sportovec, dám klidně sto zápasů,“ říká Petr Ondruš, promotér IAF v podcastu Fight!.

In this episode, Michael Thompson discusses his writing path which began at the age of 13. Learn how one teacher's attempt to devalue his doodling led to his creative mentor. I pop into my local Barnes and Noble bookstore several times a month just to feel surrounded by books. When my trip happens to be on a weekend, I often come across local authors signing their books. A few weeks ago, I met Michael Thompson who told me, “Oh, I just sold the last copy of my book.” I congratulated him and discovered that he has quite the writing story to tell and invited him to be on my podcast. I think you'll delight in his journey as an author! Head to https://www.youtube.com/@fierceconversationswithtoby to find all video interviews! Transcripts available at https://tobydorr.com/podcast-schedule/ Some of our fierce topics today: [02:07] Becoming a full-time author is kind of a scary decision. It's not exactly a traditional job and you wear a lot of hats.  [03:54] I was always creating from a very, very young age, and I was always drawing in class and creating all kinds of different characters. Epic battles were filling the margins of my notebooks. I couldn't help myself. And some of my teachers didn't like that. [04:36] It was at summer school that I met the greatest teacher that I'd ever had, Mr. A. He said, “we're going to make our own comic book”. And that was the first assignment. My mom contacted the principal and had me transferred into his class for the fourth grade. And it was there that I created Chicken Boy, my first ever character. [07:48] I loved reading my stories with my grandfather, and he had a great voice. And I always really enjoyed writing something just so I could hear him read it to me in his voice. [08:57] My grandpa passed away when I was in the middle of college. And the book hadn't come out yet. And I had just kind of a placeholder name for the currency. It was like, you know, kind of like your classic gold doubloon type looking thing. And I just called them pieces and I didn't know what to call them yet, but I wanted something unique. When it came time to do those final polishing up edits. I still needed a name for the currency. And I found a stack of my grandfather's edits and in his handwriting, he had circled that placeholder and I think he meant to write silver or something, but he abbreviated it SIV, S I V. So I named the little treasure pieces Siv. [33:05] I love the research process of these books. I call it the real-world tether. Each story has this root in reality or in real-world legends. So if you happen to search any of the creatures that Winslow sees on his voyages, you'll be, really excited to see it's like a whole bunch of old newspaper articles detailing other people's alleged encounters with those same myths.

Dennis Price discusses his experiences in organizing rescues in Afghanistan and Ukraine. He attributes his success to the blessings of God and his strong faith. In Afghanistan, he formed a company called Polaris to legally protect himself and his team. They were able to save 55 Americans and SIV interpreters in two weeks. Later, he joined a committee called Save Our Allies and worked with the government to rescue and vet interpreters. In Ukraine, he formed a nonprofit called Heroes for Humanity and led a team to provide medical aid and assistance to special needs orphans. He describes the devastation of the war in Ukraine and the innovation of the local people in defending their towns. Dennis Price shares his experiences in Ukraine and his work in rescuing sexually trafficked children. He emphasizes the importance of doing the right thing for the right reasons and helping those in need.

My neighbor and mentor Nate Scales has been flying paragliders at a high level for over 30 years. He competed in the 2007 Red Bull X-Alps. Owned the US foot launch record out of Idaho, where conditions can be about as rough as it can get. He has been flying 2 liners since their inception in 2009. But until this week had never done an SIV, and never stalled a glider. He finally decided the time was right and it was time to conquer his fears. This is his story. Let's call it a PSA for those on the SIV fence. Nate has had a nearly accident-free flying career. Chalk it up to skill and making good decisions and a good dose of luck but we all know this sport can bite, and it's never too late to mitigate some of the risk.

In the first hour of "Connections with Evan Dawson" on Wednesday, April 3, 2024, we talk with representatives from the local nonprofit, Keeping Our Promise, about the state of the Special Immigrant Visa (SIV) process. We also hear the story of an Afghan teacher who fled her home country and resettled in Rochester on an SIV. She discusses the challenges faced by women and girls in Afghanistan under Taliban rule.

Our heroes involuntarily undergo Siv conditioning that results in a strange kind of three body problem! Listen Now!(mp3) The GM is Ron Lundeen, an employee of Wizards of the Coast, whose opinions are his own.

From enduring her husband's life-changing, horrific war injuries to becoming a National Advocate for wounded Veterans and their Caregivers, Sarah Verardo's relentless never quit attitude has driven her to the forefront of two separate organizations who see the needs of Veterans and Allies, which have given her the opportunity to steward resources and support where and when they are most crucially needed. Sarah's husband, Sgt. Michael Verardo was catastrophically wounded in Afghanistan in two separate IED attacks that took his left leg, much of his left arm, and left him with polytraumatic conditions that have required over one hundred surgeries and years of speech, visual, physical, and occupational therapies. Nevertheless, Sarah speaks with Marcus about the everyday challenges she and her daughters face in the care of her husband, her involvement as the CEO of The Independence Fund, and being at the forefront of Afghan Ally inclusion within the Veteran community. In August 2021, the collapse of Afghanistan led her and three others to co-found the direct-response rescue and aid organization - Save Our Allies, who evacuated more than 17,000 US citizens, SIV holders, and wartime Allies from the country and assisted in medical and humanitarian relief efforts in Ukraine.  In this episode you will hear: • [Michael Verardo] was injured the first time.  He was riding as a gunner and hit a roadside IED. He was ejected out. (12:54) • On his very first foot patrol back in - It was 14 days to the day of the first IED, there was an old Russian land mine that had been hooked up to 2 – 15gallon drums of homemade explosives, and it was game over. His left leg was immediately blown off. Most of his left arm was blown off. They actually ended up sewing it to his back on his medical flight. He burned over 30% of his body. He had damage to his airway, his eardrums were blown out. It was significant poly trauma. (13:29) • Marcus: “He got banged up and then you all got married?” (17:02) • Marcus: You know the odds of that happening? That's when you know you're not behind the wheel. (17:46) • That sense of patriotism calling – That's all he wanted to do. (18:02) • It's been horrific. More than my worst nightmare. (18:26) • He actually handed me a Bible before he handed me an engagement ring. (20:18) • He said holiness needs to be more important than happiness. (20:37) • His only prosthetic leg broke, and I duct taped it for 57 days while I waited for someone at the VA to sign a piece of paper. (33:18) • The Navy and the Navy hospital took care of him as if he was one of their own while we waited for VA to kick in. (24:23) • I think there needs to be permanent designations for certain conditions. (26:24) • It seems that some people – not all - at VA would rather fail by following the process, than succeed by deviating from it. (27:21) • Independence Fund started out in the halls of Water Reed, wanting to give independence back to those who sacrificed theirs for us. (34:39) • If someone did not care about Afghanistan at that time, it told me everything I needed to know about them. (41:47) • I think the White House wants us to move on from Afghanistan. They're not only not helping – I think they're actively in the way of groups that want to do good. (52:36) • Reach out to the wounded veterans in your community and help these families. (59:15)
