Has civility and empathy been eroded from American politicstoday? With so many people taking divided and fractured stands when it comes tothe state of the government. Well, if you take a deeper dive into the numbers,they will tell a compelling and interesting story. According to Gallup News, Arecord-high 80% of U.S. adults believe Americans are greatly divided on themost important values, while 18% believe the country is united. The percentageseeing the nation as divided has ticked up from 77% the last time Gallup askedthe question in 2016. It is more than 10 percentage points higher than in the prior2004 and 2012 measures.Public skepticism about national unity isn't new. Surveys byGallup and others dating back to the 1990s show that Americans typically haveseen the country as divided on key values. Only in 2001 and 2002, in theaftermath of 9/11, did Gallup find most Americans perceiving the opposite, withover two-thirds of U.S. adults believing the nation was united. For someinsightful answers regarding the current state of play in American politics today,I enlisted the expertise of Brent Giannotta.  Brent was a CIA counterterrorism analyst from 2010 to 2015,tracking ISIS foreign fighters, external operations, and extremist psychology.After resigning, he became an award-winning journalist and ghostwrote op-edsfor political figures published in the Washington Post and Foreign PolicyMagazine. He then transitioned to mental health, joining a psychiatric crisisresponse team and counseling callers to the 988-suicide crisis hotline. He leftthose jobs in 2024 when he was invited to join the 2024 Harris-Walz campaign inPittsburgh. Born and raised in Los Angeles and educated in internationalrelations, Spanish, and Arabic at the University of Southern California, Brentwon a Rotary scholarship to study Middle East studies at the AmericanUniversity in Cairo, Egypt. He's worked in Congress, edited reports for HumanRights Watch, worked on AOC's first campaign, has published op-eds in the LATimes, and guest lectured at USC, UCLA, and Harvard Extension School.

Interview with Pascal Hamelin, President & CEO of Abcourt Mines Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/abcourt-mines-tsxvabi-self-funded-high-grade-gold-mill-expands-4922Recording date: 20th May 2025Abcourt Mines (TSXV:ABI) is positioning itself as an emerging gold producer in Quebec, with plans to pour first gold from its 100%-owned Sleeping Giant mine in the second half of 2025. Led by President and CEO Pascal Hamelin, the company has transformed its strategy over the past three years, shifting focus from its unprofitable Elder mine to the high-grade Sleeping Giant project.The Sleeping Giant mine boasts approximately 400,000 ounces of gold resources at an impressive grade of 8 g/t, split evenly between indicated and inferred categories. With significant exploration potential to the east and at depth, Abcourt aims to expand this resource to one million ounces over the next two years using three drill rigs currently operating at the site.Financially, the company has secured an $8 million USD loan from Nebari and is finalizing additional equity financing to complete its funding requirements. Initial production is targeted at 10,000 ounces in the first year, ramping up to 30,000 ounces annually over a six-year mine life. With all-in costs projected at $1,400 USD per ounce, the operation promises substantial margins in the current gold price environment.The project benefits from existing infrastructure, including an operational mill that will initially run at only 40% capacity, creating future expansion opportunities. Multiple mining stopes are already prepared for immediate production once financing is finalized and workers are hired.Abcourt's strategy prioritizes extending the mine life before expanding production. As Hamelin explained: "Our focus will be 80% of the free cash flow, we'll go on Sleeping Giant to make sure that we're extending the life of mine."Beyond Sleeping Giant, the company holds a 500-square-kilometer land package with several earlier-stage assets that could eventually provide additional mill feed. With its modest market capitalization of approximately C$40 million, Abcourt presents a potential re-rating opportunity as it executes its transition to producer status during a favorable gold price environment.View Abcourt Mines' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/abcourt-mines-incSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

The purpose of this podcast is to help you find healing for your wounds; find hope in your despair; find intimacy in your loneliness; find refuge from the storms of life; Basically, to help you find a deeper walk with Jesus. There is one thing I know after having lived all these years: God wastes nothing. Not our sorrows. Not our wounds. Not even our failures. Hi. I am your host, Dennis Jernigan, and I am so excited about the next 2 weeks of the Dennis Jernigan podcast because I have absolutely loved the subject matter that we've been going through over the past 11 weeks.  We have been going through the 14 songs from my recording “Captured - Songs For The Journey” which were inspired by my fantasy trilogy, “The Chronicles of Bren” and specifically, book one in the series titled, “Captured.” It has been absolutely wonderful for me personally to remember how I felt while writing these books and how certain songs were inspired. Today we'll be focusing on the story behind the song, “The Sleeping Giant.”  Just outside Muskogee, a few miles to the south, there is a hill formation that looks like a giant that has fallen asleep lying on his back. My former pastor, Chuck, actually inspired this character. He told me that when he and his family were driving home one day, one of the children, pointing to the hill formation, said, “Look, dad! A sleeping giant!” Once I heard that phrase, I could not help but see the sleeping giant whenever I drove past. I still refer to it as the sleeping giant to this day.  In the story found in the book “Captured”, the sleeping giant has been around since before time began. The people of Bren pass the story of the sleeping giant down from generation to generation. It was prophesied that he would one day rise and bring salvation or deliverance to the land during its darkest time. They even have a name for the sleeping giant. Reuben.   Reuben means ‘Behold, a son'. He represents the champion, the hero, the one who delivers. Even though he appears to be dormant and completely covered with soil and trees and all manner of foliage, there is a sense of awe and reverence and expectation and hope emanating from this massive landform. When I began to meditate on the character of Reuben I could not help but think of him as a hero…as a Savior.   I have had many heroes in my life. My dad was my first hero…and then Captain James Tiberius Kirk of the Star Ship Enterprise!  I know I have already shared this a few times before, but as a boy, I felt so abandoned on so many levels of my life. I felt utterly captured and saw no way out for myself. I longed for someone to just step in and rescue me and wondered if anyone would ever be able to. I would go to bed each night and dream I was living in space on the USS Enterprise. Each night I was captured by aliens and about to be put to death…and my dad, Captain Kirk, rescued me just as I woke up from these dreams! Every morning for years I woke up feeling rescued!   When I was in high school, my basketball teammates would never let anyone touch me. I was the only white guy on my team yet they embraced me as one of their own and literally protected and rescued me on several occasions, both during games and in the hallways on many a school day! So many things went into the inspiration of Reuben but the greatest inspiration of all? Later in life, I was rescued by Jesus Christ and He became my ultimate hero.   The enemy had held me captive in his lies for so long. When I would cry out to God, it seemed He would not or could not answer me or set me free. I even recall thinking about the way the lies of the enemy took on a mocking tone in my thought life whenever I would ask the Lord for help. He'd say things like, “God doesn't love you. There is nothing in you worth loving,” or, “You're wasting your time. He's not even real,” or, “If God loves you so much, why is He allowing such pain and misery in your life?” On more than one occasion during those dark days I felt like cashing it in…like what's the use? I'm beyond hope; beyond rescue; beyond help…  I find it quite amazing as I look back on such dark times how much encouragement I found in those nightly dreams about being rescued by Captain Kirk. I mean, think about it. Every night I was captured, about to be put to death, and each morning I woke up feeling rescued. I have absolutely no doubt those dreams were given to me by the Lord to help me keep hanging on.  This week's song, “The Sleeping Giant”, is a prayer to The Founders (God the Father, Jesus the son, and the Holy Spirit) and specifically to Reuben - Jesus. Listen to this heart cry and imagine Jesus being awakened by your heart's deepest longing for rescue…and imagine the fact that He was not asleep after all… SONG    Remember what I said about Reuben earlier? Reuben means ‘Behold, a son'. He represents the champion, the hero, the one who delivers. He represents Jesus in the story, but the enemy of Bren, the dark lord, Lucian, sees his dark powers being pierced by the light as Reuben reveals Himself as the Deliverer. To Lucian, it felt as if he had just awakened a sleeping giant because…  Well, I'll leave the story here because I don't want to spoil it for you if you're reading the book, “Captured.” My hope is that you would discover joy and solace within the pages of the books and the melodies of the songs. May they serve as uplifting companions, guiding you to encounter Jesus even amidst life's toughest trials. Thank you for tuning in to The Dennis Jernigan Podcast.

Fresh off of an epic football season, Arizona State Athletics Director Graham Rossini joins the Y-Option podcast for the 2nd time, thanks to our founding partners at 76. I can recall my first year coaching at USC and our game at ASU. It was an epic back-and-forth showdown and while the Trojans were able to win it late, I left ASU with the feeling that many others have always felt, “ASU is a sleeping giant.”After the Sun Devils run from being picked dead last in the preseason to becoming the Big 12 champions who took Texas to the absolute brink in the CFP all while being led by a rising star in Kenny Dillingham, it's safe to assume that that giant is fully awakened.Graham and I dove into the year that was in Tempe, his leadership style and how he has guided this athletic department as he recently extended the contracts of Coach Dillingham and both coordinators, Brian Ward and Marcus Arroyo. He also shared what it was like on the field postgame with Coach Dillingham after big wins (aka “I was one of these guys!”) and what was said in the ASU locker room after the CFP loss.Always thoughtful, Graham explained his lens on the current CFP model and what it was like to represent the West Coast in major college football in a powerful way this season.Personally, it's been a joy to watch Graham lead the Sun Devils and take risks, or as he likes to say, “say yes, and figure out the details.”Thank you for reading today's newsletter and if you enjoy the lessons learned from today's podcast please share it with a friend, as your support of Y-Option allows us to continue to grow this community of thoughtful and connected fans of the game we all love.Much love,YogiP.S.

Dennis is joined via Zoom by playwright and TV and film writer Steve Yockey to discuss Steve's latest play, Sleeping Giant, which is playing at the Road Theatre Company in Los Angeles. The play, which is about a group of people dealing with a mysterious lake monster, is Steve's way of exploring authoritarianism, a theme that is even more timely today than it was when he starting writing the play in 2018. Steve talks about his journey as a writer; from making the decision to abandon the business school path in college in order to study playwriting, to getting withering critiques for his first play and not writing for years afterward, to making the transition from theatre to TV. He also talks about the bold and out there pitch he gave for how he would adapt the book The Flight Attendant that won him the job writing the HBO series. And he opens up about the outpouring of love and support he received from fans after Netflix cancelled his most recent show Dead Boy Detectives, after one season. Other topics include: Sharon Stone showing up with a wig she had made to play Kaley Cuoco's mom on The Flight Attendant, why he loves to have spectacle in his plays, why he likes to feature queer characters in his plays and the lesson he has to keep learning over and over again, with each new medium that he goes into. https://roadtheatre.org/
