Dr Jessica Tipton, or Jess as she is known, is head of the National Education Nature Park at the Natural History Museum, a project commissioned by the Department for Education as part of its Sustainability and Climate Strategy.In 2020 Jess founded the UK Schools Sustainability Network (UKSSN) as head of youth networks at Global Action Plan. She led a delegation of students to the COP26 global climate summit and instigated the annual online Youth Climate Summit.In addition to all of the above, Jess has worked as a policy adviser at the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs and has researched Russia and international climate policy.But Jess didn't set out for a career in sustainability. She studied Russian and French, and played the clarinet to a high standard. The common theme running through everything she has done is contributing to events, society and positive things. That's what the National Education Nature Park project is all about – introducing children of all ages and young people to their outdoor spaces and connecting them to the power and pleasure of nature. In this episode Jess explains how she landed her high profile job (the project was visited by the Prince and Princess of Wales in the summer of 2025) and why she considers languages an subject choice through which to launch yourself into anything.Jess thinks of herself as a Jack of all trades - and as explained, has enjoyed a portfolio career – but she has never had a plan for her career, and that means she's never been bored either. In fact, at the time the recording she was about to embark on a role researching and translating Russian literature – particularly environmental and feminist themes – at the University of East Anglia.A key career tip from Jess is to enjoy what you are really good at and go and study that rather than targeting an environmental science degree at university - then take your values into other areas of work and spread the word.Mentioned in this podcastNational Education Nature ParkNatural History Museum garden visit DEFRA careersHow Bad Are Bananas?

Peso Pluma BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.According to LAist, earlier this week I lit up SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, drawing tens of thousands of fans who turned the venue into a showcase of regional Mexican fashion and a snapshot of where música mexicana now sits in global pop. LAist describes the crowd as a sea of jerseys, custom boots, and glittered fits, the kind of visual moment that will linger in future documentaries about this genre's crossover era. In industry circles, Hits Daily Double reports that Live Nation executive Jorge Garcia is already looking past my forced downtime and factoring a full Peso Pluma return into 2026 North American touring plans, grouping me with Fuerza Regida as an anchor for the next wave of large-scale Latin tours, a sign that promoters still see me as a long-term stadium draw.Rolling Stone, via an analysis highlighted on IMDb, recently revisited the cartel threat saga that has shadowed several Mexican acts, noting that I have previously received narco-style warnings similar to those aimed at Grupo Firme and Junior H and treating these messages as a serious security concern under active investigation by authorities. Those pieces frame my career inside the larger risk calculus of performing corridos in certain Mexican regions, a storyline likely to stick in any future biography. None of the major outlets in the last few days have reported new threats or cancellations tied to me, so any chatter on fan accounts about fresh warnings should be considered unconfirmed at this time.On the recording side, the Los Angeles Times' De Los vertical name-checks me in a 2025 roundup by praising songwriter Neton Vega and pointing out that he has penned hits for crossover artists including Peso Pluma, cementing my role as one of the standard-bearers of corridos tumbados in this decade's Latin canon. Celebrity sites like CelebHarbor continue to push evergreen pieces pegging my 2025 age, net worth, and global streaming dominance; those are more profile maintenance than real news, but they reinforce the narrative that my catalog, not just the headlines, is what keeps me in the conversation. Socially, the breakup storyline with Nicki Nicole that outlets like AOL covered earlier in the year still echoes across fan pages, though in the past few days there have been no fresh, verifiable developments on that front, only speculative gossip that reputable news organizations have not confirmed.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Jo Jo Siwa BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.This is Biosnap AI. In the past few days JoJo Siwa has been quietly but decisively reshaping the next chapter of her empire, with a blend of hard business moves and image‑crafting that feels built for the long haul rather than a quick headline hit.The most consequential development is commercial: JoJo is now officially taking her brand to sea. Attitude magazine reports that she has partnered with Royal Caribbean to launch The JoJo Siwa Cruise, a three night fan voyage on Utopia of the Seas scheduled for June 12 to 15, 2026, complete with meet and greets, Q and A sessions, dance parties, Build a Bow workshops, and a full Infinity Heart concert at sea. Attitude notes that only guests booked through her dedicated portal can access the programming, underscoring that this is not just a themed sailing but a tightly controlled JoJo owned fan experience. PinkNews similarly reports that she unveiled the cruise on TikTok with upbeat promotional footage and called it the most immersive fan event she has ever created. For biographers this marks a significant expansion of her once kids TV focused brand into destination style experiential entertainment, essentially turning JoJo Siwa into a touring lifestyle environment rather than just a performer.On the personal front, recent coverage continues to frame her relationship with former Love Island star Chris Hughes as a defining storyline of her twenties. AOL reports that she has gone public about finding love with Hughes after they met while filming the latest season of Celebrity Big Brother UK, and PinkNews adds that their romance has been one of the running themes of her turbulent 2025 alongside her coming out as fluid in her orientation and a brief hospitalization for a ruptured ovarian cyst. UK entertainment weeklies have begun to speculate that Hughes could be planning a festive proposal, but those pieces are sourced to unnamed insiders and remain unconfirmed, so any engagement talk is firmly in the realm of rumor.Socially, JoJo has stayed visible in industry circles; a recent Substack profile of publicist Desmond Sam describes a celebratory dinner built around her upcoming LadyGunn magazine feature, positioning her not just as a children's idol but as a queer pop culture figure curated for fashion forward downtown media. Meanwhile, past viral controversy over her claim to have invented a genre called gay pop, covered and later walked back in interviews highlighted by outlets like Billboard and TMZ and summarized by IMDb News, continues to echo in commentary about her reinvention, but there have been no fresh flare ups on that front in the last few days.On TikTok and Instagram, fan chatter is now dominated by the cruise announcement promo, with users alternately mocking the concept as an SNL sketch and fantasizing about a three day JoJo party at sea, but no major new music, TV, or film projects have been announced in this very recent window.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Peso Pluma BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.I am Biosnap AI, and over the past few days Peso Pluma has been closing out the year in full superstar mode, mixing hard business moves with fan hysteria and a touch of lingering controversy. Rolling Stone, via a pickup summarized by IMDb News, reports that he has just dropped a new single titled Gervonta, his first fresh release since his fourth album Exodo earlier this year, a flex-heavy corrido tumbado named after boxer Gervonta Davis and packed with lyrics about private jets, shiny watches, and the high life. The single not only keeps him in constant rotation but also reinforces the persona that has defined his 2024 and now edges into the new year: a regional Mexican kingpin living like a global rap star, which is likely to matter long term in how his biography frames the crossover of corridos into mainstream pop culture.Onstage, the last few days have underlined that status. LAist reports that he just sold out two nights at YouTube Theater in Inglewood, where fans from across Southern California turned the shows into a full-blown cultural event, calling him everything from the contemporary version of Los Tigres del Norte to the face of a new Mexican pride moment in the U.S. One fan quoted by LAist compared the way he is filling arenas and uniting generations to a revolution in Mexican music, a framing that, if it holds, will be written into every future career retrospective. Separately, AOL recently described his arena level presence and quoted a fan calling him the Mexican Elvis, a dramatic line but one that signals how media and audiences are starting to mythologize him in real time.On the industry side, Hits Daily Double's New Music Friday rundown notes him on playlists alongside major Anglo pop and hip hop releases, a quiet but important sign that programmers are treating him as a core global act rather than a niche regional star. Socially, Gervonta got an extra jolt of gossip value when Gervonta Davis himself posted the single artwork on Instagram, effectively giving Peso Pluma a boxer cosign and feeding fan speculation about deeper ties between the two; for now, there is no verified business or personal partnership beyond that public nod. Earlier cartel related threats and cancellations, widely reported months ago by outlets like TMZ and others, continue to haunt the narrative around his security, but there have been no new confirmed incidents in the past few days, only the steady march of sold out shows, new music, and a growing sense that Peso Pluma is solidifying his place as the defining corridos tumbaos star of his generation.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

You know, one way to view academia in today's economy is to see it as a platform for creators. A lot of people don't understand this, but platforms like YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn—they're modeled after universities. All universities are, quote unquote, platforms. They connect people who want to create things. And that content looks different in every domain.In mine, it's research papers. In yours, it might be music, art, or a new idea no one's seen before. But here's the thing most people won't tell you: being a creator is a miserable process. Ask anyone who's built something—really built it. It's mentally grueling. Socially painful. Everyone who's done it says: don't do it. Because it's hard. And no one cares. Until they do.So why do it?Because the misery means you're actually making something real. Because we've built these imperfect platforms not to remove the pain—but to share it. To give each other a shot at surviving the creative journey. And maybe even thriving.Would I choose another path? No. Even on the worst days. Because this—this struggle—is still the only thing that feels worth doing.And maybe, if we keep showing up, we'll build something that matters.

Jo Jo Siwa BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.JoJo Siwa is still very much in recovery mode after a scary health scare that landed her in the emergency room just hours before her Black Friday performance at the Mall of America. According to HuffPost and AOL coverage of her own TikTok update, Siwa experienced excruciating stomach pain that got so bad she couldn't breathe, started blacking out, and couldn't even get dressed after a bath. Her mom called 911 and paramedics rushed her to the hospital where an ultrasound revealed a burst ovarian cyst bleeding into her abdomen. Doctors told her it should resolve on its own but she's not fully in the clear yet, as she later clarified in a follow-up post reported by the New Zealand Herald. She credits strong pain medication with helping her feel good enough to dance in the hospital bed, and she joked that the medical team moved unusually fast—maybe because some of them had daughters going to her show.Despite the pain, Siwa pushed through and performed at the Mall of America, showing her trademark resilience. She's been open with fans, using TikTok to explain that knowing the diagnosis brought her peace of mind even though the physical recovery is ongoing. The Mayo Clinic notes that while most ovarian cysts are harmless, a rupture can cause significant internal bleeding, especially with vigorous activity, which may be relevant given her high-energy performances.On the professional front, Siwa is staying active with live appearances. Eventbrite lists her upcoming event at Aspirations Dance Company in Lombard, Illinois on December 3, where she led a dance class to her new holiday song “Message to the World” and hosted a VIP meet and greet. This fits her pattern of blending fan engagement with performance, a strategy that's helped build her brand beyond music and TV.Socially, she's still linked with British TV personality Chris Hughes, her Celebrity Big Brother co-star, with recent coverage from AOL noting their red carpet debut together at the Dancers Against Cancer Gala of the Stars. There's no new official relationship update, but their public appearances together continue to fuel fan interest.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Peso Pluma BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Peso Pluma has continued his streak as one of the most watched and talked-about figures in music this fall, and this past week alone has delivered both spectacle and substance to his growing legend. LAist reports that earlier this week Peso Pluma performed two completely sold-out nights at the YouTube Theater in Inglewood, drawing fans from all over Southern California, including first-timers and die-hards equally thrilled to see the Jalisco-born star up close. The event was a celebration of the crossover appeal of his corridos tumbados and cemented his status as a generational talent whose sound speaks to both tradition and youth culture. Fans interviewed outside suggested the concerts were a source of cultural pride and a clear sign that regional Mexican music has fully erupted into the American mainstream, with Peso described as the new icon representing the Latino experience at the highest levels.On the business side, AOL details how Peso Pluma's upward trajectory continues to impact the industry, with what's being called the “Peso Pluma Effect.” Executives and analysts now point to him as a primary force behind the explosion of regional Mexican music outside its historical audience. The acknowledgment from Variety and music trade publications this week underscores how his influence is causing, as a major headline put it, “the biggest shakeup of Latin genre marketing in decades.”Socially, Peso Pluma dominated L.A. headlines this weekend for a different reason—a playful, community-powered lookalike contest at Echo Park Lake, as covered by LAist's Brian de los Santos. The contest drew around one hundred participants and was a trending moment across local social media, further cementing Peso's current cultural dominance in the city. One winner told reporters she felt “Peso enough” to represent all fans, reflecting the deep community bond the singer inspires.Musically, Peso Pluma ended the week with the surprise release of a new single called Gervonta, named after boxer Gervonta Davis. According to Rolling Stone and IMDB News, the track dropped Thursday evening, marking Peso's first new song since his album Exodo. On Instagram, even Gervonta Davis himself amplified the release by sharing its cover art to his story. Lyrically, the song keeps with Peso's luxury themes, boasting about private jets and shiny watches—a nod to his now-global celebrity status.Though Peso did not win a headline award at last week's Latin Grammy Awards—Bad Bunny took home the top trophies according to the Associated Press—his omnipresence at key events keeps speculation high about future collaborations and possible award sweeps in 2026. There are no major confirmed controversies or scandals at this time. Unconfirmed posts continue to swirl about his love life, particularly regarding his previous breakup with Nicki Nicole, but no new explosive revelations have surfaced in official media the past few days.In all, Peso Pluma remains not just a top musical act but a bona fide cultural mover, blending pop stardom with community roots and shaping Latin music's new trajectory as the year races toward its close.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Jo Jo Siwa BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.JoJo Siwa has been making headlines over the past week with a blend of personal milestones and public appearances that keep her firmly in the cultural conversation. Her romantic relationship with British reality star Chris Hughes has taken center stage, drawing attention both on social platforms and in the gossip columns. According to Attitude and AOL, JoJo and Chris just wrapped a dreamy Bahamas vacation where they adopted two cats for the week, played endless games of pool, tried golfing together, and went jet skiing. JoJo posted a candid Instagram tribute describing it as the most beautiful week with her “best friend and my love,” offering fans intimate snaps of their adventures and affectionate moments. These posts, heavily shared across Instagram where JoJo maintains over 11 million followers per HypeAuditor, were met with both adoration and debate, especially as her journey from coming out as lesbian to now self-identifying as queer with a male partner continues to spark discussion within the LGBTQ+ community.According to AOL and Attitude, JoJo and Chris made a highly publicized red carpet debut at the 2025 Dancers Against Cancer Gala of the Stars. Footage and images of their overt PDA, shared widely by media outlets, cemented the seriousness of their relationship and generated headlines highlighting JoJo Siwa's new chapter. Tabloids and fans alike referenced their soft-launch and subsequent official announcement of their romance, recounting the aftermath of her split from non-binary ex Kath Ebbs at the Celebrity Big Brother after-party this spring.Despite navigating backlash regarding her evolving identity, JoJo has doubled down on authenticity. Via Instagram Stories and in interviews cited by Us Weekly and CNN, she insisted, “Everyone's story is different and everyone's journey is different.” She called out critics questioning her sexuality as “a discredit to my life.” This messaging landed during Pride Month, amplifying her continued role as a high-visibility queer celebrity and champion for inclusivity.On the career front, after her high-profile cameo on the latest Selling Sunset season with Chrishell Stause, JoJo is reportedly exploring new entertainment ventures and brand expansions as she maintains a fortune estimated near $20 million according to Henry & Beaver. Her tour schedule remains packed with international dates, and merch sales through Bandsintown and other outlets show sustained fan enthusiasm. Socially, JoJo's Instagram reflected steady engagement rates despite minor fluctuations in follower count, suggesting a loyal fanbase amid public scrutiny.In sum, JoJo Siwa's week was defined by romance in the Bahamas, red carpet flair, new pet adoptions, a continued public dialogue on identity, and behind-the-scenes business moves. Each move continues to shape and redefine her public persona, keeping her in the spotlight and making her every headline worth watching.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Send us a text- On-Demand Programme Link - https://mailchi.mp/bb2a7b851246/kairos-centreDevelopmental history from childhoodThe phase of childhood from birth to age 6 is a critical time of sensitivity, during which time, templates are created which shape future interpersonal interactions. During this sensitive period of development, a child acquires a variety of new abilities and skills that are a necessary part of child development. There are five sensitive period categories, which include language, order, sensory skills, motor skills, and social skills.Many people experience some type of wounding during their early development and learn to numb their pain by self-soothing with one or more compulsive behaviours. As adults, they may continue to struggle with the compulsive misuse of alcohol, drugs, spending, food, sex, relationships or the Internet. All addictions feature a very complex emotional and biochemical process that have origins in childhood trauma and the deprivation of authentic intimacy and bonding during development.Socially induced pathology appears between the ages of 4 to 5 and 8 to 9.The onset of male sexual imprinting is from aged 3 to 4 and peaks at 8 to 9, with an  upper tail at about aged 13. These sex and relationship templates (set up in childhood) become activated at puberty and develop and continue throughout adult life.4 Ways in which juvenile sex and relsp templates are developmentally vulnerable to socially induced pathology:·       Explicitly neglecting to monitor and reinforce healthy sexual rehearsal play.·       Punishing or humiliating children for their rehearsal play.·       Prematurely inducting children into sexual rehearsal play.·       Coercing children into age-discrepant sexual rehearsal play.Our early attachment styles are established in childhood through the infant/caregiver relationship. Four distinguishing characteristics of attachment are:1   Proximity Maintenance - The desire to be near the people we are attached to.2   Safe Haven - Returning to the attachment figure for comfort and safety in the face of a fear or threat.3   Secure Base - The attachment figure acts as a base of security from which the child can explore the surrounding environment.4   Separation Distress - Anxiety that occurs in the absence of the attachment figure.Templates are setting up traits that will play out in Adulthood, which the child did not vote to have at work in their life.

Justin Timberlake BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Timberlake is once again in the spotlight and not just for his music. As the European leg of his Forget Tomorrow World Tour ramps up, with a scheduled performance at Manchester's Co-op Live arena on November 8, fans are flocking for remaining tickets. The show boasts a setlist loaded with nearly thirty hits, including Cry Me a River, SexyBack, and Mirrors, and the venue is throwing an official Noughties afterparty to keep the nostalgia alive. Timberlake's ability to electrify the stage remains unrivaled, cementing his place as one of pop's enduring titans after more than two decades leading NSYNC and his own multiplatinum solo career.Away from the stage, Timberlake is making business moves. The acclaimed Twelve Thirty Club restaurant, launched with restaurateur Sam Fox in Nashville, is expanding to Austin in early 2026, landing a prime spot in the city's bustling downtown, as confirmed by the Austin Business Journal and MySA. His ventures have always blurred the lines between music, film, and hospitality, signaling Timberlake's ongoing relevance not just as an entertainer but as a brand.But behind the scenes, Timberlake is reportedly focused on healing and introspection. According to AOL, he is taking a temporary break from certain industry commitments to prioritize his personal health. This follows a period of career turbulence in Hollywood, with sources telling Star and Reality Tea that Timberlake is “desperate to revive” his acting trajectory after cooling off since Palmer. Rather than taking humbler roles, Timberlake is said to be “thinking big,” reaching out to some major former collaborators like David Fincher and Mila Kunis as he aims to recapture blockbuster success. Insiders warn though, the road back won't be easy—audiences will demand compelling performances, not just nostalgia.Socially, Timberlake made quiet headlines on Globe for expressing continued support and sympathy for Britney Spears, as her struggles and family drama remain tabloid fodder. While not a direct public appearance, this show of solidarity is seen by some as a meaningful gesture given their shared pop history.Meanwhile, Timberlake's legacy and influence are celebrated everywhere—from upcoming candlelight tribute concerts in Tampa honoring his catalog, to viral TikTok and YouTube shorts resurfacing his classics like SexyBack and Holy Grail, to a new audio biography episode streaming this week. For all the speculation on where Timberlake goes from here, his position in the pop culture pantheon seems secure. Whether rebounding in film, branching into businesses, or returning to the stage, Timberlake remains a headline—one seemingly determined to remind everyone he's still somebody worth watching.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Robert Reich wrote on his substack for September 16, One study found that half of Americans expect a second civil war to happen "in the next few years," even if the specifics vary according to one's politics and imagination. On the other hand, unlike the Civil War of 1861-1865, no particular issue — like slavery back then — pulls the nation apart. While immigration, crime, abortion, and LGBTQ+ rights are controversial, none of these seem to elicit the anger and passions that might generate civil war. Nor are we enduring an economic calamity, pandemic, world war, or other national cataclysm that might force Americans to take sides. While we are not experiencing a singular polarizing issue like Slavery, and though we can't point to a singular economic calamity that brought this on, it is in fact  decades of economic factors and now a looming economic disaster that has put us here.  We've managed to create an economy over a half century that excludes, then isolates individuals by limiting access to everything from communications to housing, your home sitting at the apex of human need. Socially we tell the newly minted abandoned economic nomads that it's their fault.  Our systems and our leaders constantly remind them in a myriad of ways that they don't have what it takes to 'make it'. Then we forget these individuals unless or until they commit a mass shooting, or we find them dead of an overdose behind the Walgreens. Maybe just maybe they are thought of by elected officials from time to time when their votes are needed.    My thoughts on our society have been shaped in part by my experiences as a youngster with poverty.  My young life started stable and solidly middle class then descended, through family circumstance, into the grips of poverty. Don't get me wrong, I have countless fond memories from my upbringing. Here though, I'd rather for a moment focus on our experiences that represent the other side of growing up in America. Growing up poor in America. A friend once recounted the quote, 'the only thing worse than a country full of have-nots is a country full of used-to-haves'. We are a country massed with people who know what they are missing. For decades, some of us were building a society based on creativity, positive energy, robust education…… for some of us while for others,  we've built a society where resentment, economic fear, shame for your economic status; we took this underbelly of societal cancer and metastasized it. We've turned grief into grievance. We've given nearly all the worst in each and every one of us a voice and put it to work in the service of accelerating the downward spiral that enriches an ever smaller number of our neighbors.  I am the product of the 1980's.  My life has occurred during the dismantling of the New Deal.  I'm also proud of my family's immigrant heritage.  I believe in the countless individual stories that make up the story of North America.  That tell us the story of the American Experiment.  The community in central Massachusetts where I grew up was no stranger to global changes in the economy, albeit being in the northeast meant we were spared the very worst of de-industrialization until well into the early aughts.   Our family suffered a divorce, not an affliction caused by economics but one that significantly altered the economic trajectory of our little family.  What's so striking to me to this day, is the dichotomy between those that were always there to help, with those community members who suddenly discovered, to my little mind, that we had committed a grave transgression.  Did they think we'd give them the flu?  Was it something Mom said? Do I have something on my shirt?  You see it when people look just above your head into the distance when you approach.  You begin to understand that some people still have what you once had and they might even be taking it for granted.   People stopped talking to us at church. The farther we got away from affluence, the further folks seemed to get away from us.  I was learning a seminal point that we don't like to tell ourselves about ourselves.  For all that Americans can be wonderfully gracious when called upon, there are just as many of us who long ago gave into the desire of self-preservation by blaming others when those others need help. By keeping a distance from the affliction of poverty.  Maybe just maybe by doing so, we won't get any on us.  Except the churning economic deprivation knows no boundaries.  Doesn't stop for anything.  Denying our systems have been kicking people to the side of the road, while kicking the Spector of debt, failed systems and social ills down the road, has left us in grave peril. Frank Zappa said, 'The illusion of freedom will continue as long as it's profitable to continue the illusion. At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain, they will just take down the scenery, they will pull back the curtains, they will move the tables and chairs out of the way and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theater'. I fear that the show is about to be over.  _________   History.  It's what keeps me getting up every morning. It's what keeps me trying with all my might to build more housing, to build new companies and to write like this.  We've been here before.  This isn't our first Gilded Age.  We've lived with the presence of Jim Crow and widespread open bigotry and classism; tools used to split the populace to the benefit of the elite. The Klan marched 30K plus in Washington, DC in 1923.  They also tried to march on my very hometown in 1924, immigrants including some family members stopped them in their tracks at the town border.  People get pissed, it turns out, when they know what they're missing.  If you think you can write, then write.  If you can organize, then organize.  Reach out to just one person, commiserate, and grow your group from there.  There is strength in numbers.  When you see an injustice, you really should call it out.  Remember the Zappa quote?  Demand a refund on your ticket. Demand a free and fair election. Demand a more inclusive economy.  Participate in solutions.  Create the right, instead of avenging the wrong.  Most importantly, Love one another.

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.In the past few days Justin Bieber has made headlines for both his public appearances and his expanding digital presence. According to Beliebers Squad on YouTube Justin surprised fans with his first livestream event on October 22 2025 where he played ping pong, shot some hoops, landed trick shots, and skateboarded all while directly engaging with his followers. The energy was playful and he even took a photo for his Instagram Story during the stream to let fans in on the excitement. Then on October 24 Bieber capped off Day 3 of another live stream by telling fans I Love You, a gesture that quickly fueled positive ripples across social media platforms.Justin's presence in the streaming community took an even more personal turn when his son Jack Blues affectionately called him Dadda during a Twitch stream. As reported by PopRant and seen across Twitter Instagram and TikTok this unscripted father-son banter went viral, with fans celebrating the authentic family moment and reposting clips, memes, and commentary. Many labeled the exchange iconic and it has cemented Justin's growing role as not just a pop star but a major force in online fan interaction.Businesswise his reach continues to be staggering. In April NetEase Cloud Music named Bieber the top-streamed Western artist in the platform's history with over 11.9 billion streams, highlighting the international magnitude of his fanbase. Back in July he dropped his seventh studio album Swag which debuted at number two on the US Billboard 200 and produced the hit single Daisies. In September he released Swag II which has been hailed as a major follow-up. His 2025 collaboration with Diddy, according to Meta AI, has been drawing attention for its blend of Bieber's trademark energy with Diddy's veteran influence, further solidifying Bieber's continuous reinvention in the industry.Forbes estimates his net worth at 300 million dollars and highlights earnings from music endorsements and business ventures, including significant real-estate investments and charitable contributions. Socially he remains omnipresent, with recent live moments trending on Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, and Reddit, where fans rave about his evolving persona as an artist and a family man.No controversies or negative press have been reported by major outlets in this period.

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Biospan AI here. Over the past few days, Justin Bieber's world has buzzed with big moves, starting with the monumental news of him headlining Coachella 2026, marking his first U.S. concert since his 2022 Justice World Tour. Rolling Stone has reported that Bieber negotiated the deal himself without an agent, a rare power move in the music industry, and will earn an eye-popping $10 million for the performance, about $5 million per weekend, with nearly all of it landing directly in his bank—no cut for managers or agencies. The insider angle here is not just the paycheck, but the symbolism: sources close to the singer told Rolling Stone this is about Bieber being "fully in the driver's seat," creatively and financially, after breaking away from his longtime team, including manager Scooter Braun. Those same sources say his upcoming Coachella set is being positioned as a "once-in-a-generation spectacle," with Bieber enjoying—for the first time—true creative freedom, resulting in two new albums, SWAG and SWAG II, that reflect what is described as his most authentic, vulnerable music yet.On the business front, Bieber's fashion moves are shifting gears. While he's no longer actively promoting his Drew House brand, he's teasing a new clothing and accessories line called SKYLRK on Instagram, showing off sweatshirts, bold slide sandals, and phone cases that have drawn playful comparisons to the phone cases from wife Hailey Bieber's Rhode brand. E! News notes that SKYLRK's launch date isn't set, but its Instagram presence is building momentum—fans can sign up for notifications on the brand's website. Drew House, meanwhile, isn't quite dead: earlier this year, Bieber and Drew Barrymore dropped another collaborative capsule collection, but there's no word on whether either of those projects will coexist with SKYLRK long-term.On the family front, Justin and Hailey Bieber appear closer than ever. People magazine's sources say raising their son, Jack Blues, has only deepened their bond, with Justin recently sharing sweet vacation snaps of the pair, plus new photos of Jack, now a one-year-old walking on his own. Meanwhile, Hailey is riding high after selling her Rhode beauty brand to E.l.f. for $1 billion, and she's talked about preserving that wealth for their son's future, according to Fortune. Both are thriving: Hailey remains hands-on with Rhode as chief creative officer, while Justin is riding a wave of creative momentum.Socially, Justin Bieber's profile is as active as ever. He's posted both personal and brand teasers on Instagram, mixing family moments with SKYLRK previews. Daily Times highlights that, besides Coachella, Bieber has teased a unique fan music collaboration, though details remain vague—something to watch for future headlines.Rounding out the picture: there are no massive scandals or controversies dominating the news cycle, just a carefully curated mix of music, business, and family that paints a portrait of Justin Bieber as both a renaissance pop star and a family-first entrepreneur. If anything, the biggest headline is the return of Justin Bieber, the independent artist—recharged, refocused, and rewriting the rules of the celebrity playbook on his own terms.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

BUFFALO, NY — October 9, 2025 — A new #research paper was #published in Volume 17, Issue 9 of Aging-US on August 22, 2025, titled, “The impact of long-term social housing on biconditional association task performance and neuron ensembles in the anterior cingulate cortex and the hippocampal CA3 region of aged rats.” The research team led by Anne M. Dankert from Providence College and University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, showed that aged rats who lived in socially enriched environments throughout life retained better memory and cognitive flexibility than those housed alone. This study highlights the importance of social interaction in protecting the aging brain. Cognitive decline, such as memory loss and reduced problem-solving ability, affects many people over the age of 65. While many factors contribute to age-related cognitive decline, this study suggests that one key factor may be surprisingly simple: long-term social connection. To explore how social interaction might influence memory performance and brain activity, the researchers designed a study using rats as a model for aging in humans. “Cognitive decline and changes in neuronal activity are hallmarks of aging.” They compared three groups of rats: young adults, aged rats housed alone, and aged rats housed socially in groups. All groups had access to the same physical enrichment, such as exercise and stimulating objects, but only some experienced lifelong social companionship. The team tested these animals on a complex memory challenge known as the biconditional association task, which requires animals to make context-based decisions—an ability that typically declines with age. The results showed that aged rats living in social groups performed just as well as young adults on the memory task, while those housed alone showed significant impairments. Socially housed rats also made fewer working memory errors and required less effort to complete cognitive tasks, suggesting not only better performance but more efficient brain function. These benefits were not observed in aged rats who received only environmental enrichment without social interaction. Brain imaging revealed additional differences between the groups. Socially housed aged rats showed increased activity in the hippocampus, particularly in the CA3 region, which plays a key role in forming and separating memories. In contrast, aged rats that lived alone had lower activity in this region, which may explain their poorer performance. Interestingly, socially housed rats also showed reduced overactivity in the anterior cingulate cortex—a brain area involved in attention and decision-making—suggesting a more balanced and efficient neural response. This research provides new insight into how lifelong social experiences shape brain health during aging. While earlier studies have shown that physical activity and cognitive stimulation help preserve cognitive function, this study identifies social interaction as an independent and powerful protective factor. The findings are consistent with human studies showing that older adults who remain socially active tend to experience slower cognitive decline and stronger brain function. Overall, these results emphasize that brain aging is not inevitable but may be influenced by our social environments. This research suggests that fostering lifelong social connections could be a critical, low-cost strategy to protect memory and mental flexibility in older adults.

Consumerism is addicting, attractive, seemingly Language of economists + violence. Consumerism has literally seeped into every crack of our lives. Socially? It's always been a signifier of success. How good of a job, how much money you make, never what a difference you've made or contributions to the greater good. But it's deeper than that. Brands are so worshipped in this country ( A 2019 UK study has revealed 83% of children between the ages of five and 16 can't identify a bumblebee. “How are we going to fall in love with the world if we don't pick berries?” — Robin Wall KimmererDivest from a culture of consumerism. Don't shame yourself here, because well… you get it… and though there is no ethical consumption under capitalism, it doesn't mean there isn't less and more ethical choices. And I recommend that each and every one of us occasionally check in with our current consumerism habits. How much online shopping do you do? Maybe you can reasonably cut back on at one or two purchases this month? But not just our literal shopping habits need evaluation.

Tonight, we'll read the 32nd chapter of “Anne of Green Gables”, the classic 1908 novel by Lucy Maud Montgomery. This chapter is titled “The Pass List is Out” In the last episode, Anne spent a carefree summer outdoors with Diana, as per the doctor's advice for her health. The time in the fresh air left her revived and eager for the new school year. As autumn arrived, she threw herself into her studies under Miss Stacy's inspiring guidance, with the looming “Entrance” exams casting a shadow over the year. Socially, Anne enjoyed parties, sleigh rides, and skating, while at home Marilla reflected with bittersweet feelings on how much Anne had grown. Anne herself became quieter, favoring thoughtful reflection over chatter, and focused on improving her writing through Miss Stacy's critiques. With just two months before the exams, Anne worried about passing—especially in geometry—while determinedly pushing herself to succeed. — read by 'N' — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!

Quotes from the episode I am not interested in being in a war with AI. I'm not trying to be a faculty detective to see who's using ChatGPT or not, I didn't sign up for that work. -Bryan Dewsbury I'm not your enemy. I'm not against you. I'm rooting for you every single day. I really mean that. -Bryan Dewsbury The things I say on day one are not going to mean anything over the course of the semester if I don't give them feedback in a reasonable time or if I'm rude when they answer a question wrong in class. -Bryan Dewsbury The way in which we can interact around this material doesn't have to be one that's dictatorial. -Bryan Dewsbury You don't have to be able to save the world, but you're obligated to try, right?

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Bieber has had a notably eventful and revealing week with several newsworthy developments across music, business, and his personal life. The most headline-grabbing moment is the apparent resolution of his long-standing financial dispute with former manager Scooter Braun. According to reports from People and TMZ, Justin has agreed to pay Braun and Hybe $31.5 million, settling costs related to the early cancellation of his Justice Tour back in 2022. The tour cancellation was driven by health issues, and the payment includes $26 million he was ordered to repay after Aeg paid him a substantial advance which now needs reimbursing. This move closes a major chapter in Bieber's business affairs and could impact his future management and touring prospects.On the music front, Bieber's new album “SWAG,” released July 10, continues to generate buzz. Critics at The Emory Wheel praise its vulnerable songwriting and production, noting that the album's central theme is love, specifically his relationship with wife Hailey Bieber. Tracks like “DAISIES” and “Therapy Session” have quickly become fan favorites for both their emotional resonance and catchy beats, with “DAISIES” debuting at number two on the Billboard Hot 100. Bieber has spoken candidly about his mental health struggles through the album and social media, confirming that creating and sharing music helps him maintain stability during periods of anxiety.Socially, Bieber maintains a low public profile, but recently made several appearances in New York, sparking concern among fans about his wellbeing. According to The Hollywood Gossip and IMDb, speculation surrounding his health intensified after fans commented on changes to his appearance. Nevertheless, sources close to the singer tell Entertainment Tonight and Elle that he is focused on being present for Hailey and their son Jack, managing anxiety, and working on his marriage, which has reportedly stabilized following earlier rough patches. The couple will celebrate son Jack's first birthday this week and their seventh anniversary next month.Bieber's business ventures are also thriving. His fashion brand SKYLRK, launched in July, is moving beyond apparel with the teasing of a futuristic bench prototype and a collaboration with adidas Football—both previewed on Instagram and covered by Hypebeast and EntertainmentNow. Bieber's business empire, together with Hailey's $212 million cosmetics brand Rhode, is estimated to be approaching $400 million. He was spotted supporting music peers at Gunna's album release party in Los Angeles, his latest public outing.Finally, social media was abuzz over a Las Vegas incident where a lookalike impersonated Bieber and was ejected from the Wynn nightclub, highlighting the persistent fan obsession and ongoing scrutiny of his image. These varied developments collectively mark an important juncture, showcasing Bieber's multifaceted career, ongoing personal growth, and resilience in navigating both public and private challenges.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

Today I'm talking about the three types of black men that society accepts the most. A lot of us, especially in the Black community, grow up being pushed toward just a few career paths. We see them as our best or only options. I've lived it, and many of you have too. In this episode, I break down what those roles are, why they're so limited, and why outside forces keep pushing them on us but more importantly, why we keep going along with it. Let's talk about it.   Show Notes:  [01:32]#1 The athlete.  [13:03]#2 The entertainer.  [23:47]#3 The clown.  [30:11]Recap Next Steps:

Unlock the Power of Persuasion: Discover "The Elephant Persuasion Principle" Podcast! Ever wondered how to influence people effortlessly, build unbreakable trust, and close deals like a pro? Imagine having a memory as sharp as an elephant's—never forgetting a name, a face, or a crucial detail that seals the connection. Recall like an elephant and watch your relationships soar! Elephants aren't just massive; they're memory masters! With brains weighing a whopping 5 kg (11 lbs - they excel at recall for survival and social bonds. Think about Lakshmi, the elephant in India who, after years of abuse, retaliated against her tormentor in June 2024. It's a stark reminder: elephants remember pain, loyalty, and everything in between. Now, apply that to your life - remember names like an elephant and you'll persuade like never before! Why is remembering names a game-changing people skill? It shows respect and genuine interest, sparking trust and rapport. In business, it supercharges networking and leadership. Socially, it cements friendships and nails first impressions. A 2016 Journal of Social Psychology study proves it: using someone's name boosts your warmth and competence, making you instantly more likable. It's not just polite; it's persuasive 101! But what's happening in your brain? When you hear your name, your attention spikes (like "Great job, Sarah!"), the amygdala lights up with emotion, and the prefrontal cortex evaluates the feel-good factor. It personalizes interactions, validates feelings, and follows social norms that make folks like you more.  Here are two simple techniques: 1. Repeat and Use the Name Immediately: Say "Nice to meet you, Sarah!" and weave it in again: "So, Sarah, what's your story?" Repetition builds brain pathways, shifting names from your short-term memory to long-term recall. Example: At a networking bash, greet John with "John, awesome to connect - what's your passion, John?" Boom - name locked in! 2. Associate with a Visual Image: Link the name to a wild picture. For Rose, envision a Rose coming out of her ear. Your brain loves visuals, leveraging the hippocampus for recall.  Want more insights into recalling names, increasing recall and 4 other techniques to instantly connect to anyone.

President Donald Trump is right to believe that Iran is in a historically vulnerable position right now.    The Assad regime is kaput. Hezbollah's effectiveness has been dramatically reduced since Oct. 7. Hama is living underground among the rubble of Gaza.    However, even with a maximum pressure campaign, oil embargoes, domestic instability, two things will never change:    You can't trust a word that comes out of the Iranian regime's mouth, and their legitimacy hinges on acquiring nuclear weapons, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:” “The pressure is all on Iran. Militarily. Diplomatically. Economically. Socially. Culturally. What do I mean by that? Culturally, there is about 30% to 40% of the country are non-Farsi Persian speakers. And they're very restive, angry. Power outages. The regime is unpopular. It's diverted billions of dollars to these terrorist appendages that now didn't pay off, that they're defunct.    “And so, Donald Trump thinks that he, with this maximum pressure, putting this crushing oil embargo—which by the way, Joe Biden lifted—that he can bring them to negotiations one last time.   “Personally, I don't think he can. Nothing that that regime has ever said is accurate. Nobody in the MAGA movement wants an optional war in the Middle East. But they will have nuclear weapons, perhaps in a year. So, what is the likely scenario?”
