Marcus is back this week with a fantastic guest: Colin Jones, CEO of The Society of Photographers (The Societies).In this powerful episode, Marcus and Colin dive deep into the state of the professional photography industry, focusing heavily on the commercial and B2B sectors. Colin shares critical insights on how a 5,000-member international organisation supports photographers and what it truly takes to succeed in today's demanding market.What You Will Learn. We're covering the three key takeaways you need to navigate the evolving industry:How to significantly improve your photography and build a more profitable, premium business by leveraging the support, mentoring, and community of a dedicated professional body.How the commercial photography market is changing, addressing the challenges and opportunities presented by AI, and exploring which specialised markets (like food, architecture, and product photography) are thriving.Why ideas are the gold standard of your business, and why technical excellence alone won't cut it in the future, especially as technology advances.
While Sudan burns and Muslims in the UK make up a disproportionate amount of its crime, the world obsesses about a tiny Jewish state.

R. Jisung Park is assistant professor at the University of Pennsylvania, where he holds appointments in the School of Social Policy and Practice and the Wharton School of Business.It's hard not to feel anxious about the problem of climate change, especially if we think of it as an impending planetary catastrophe. In Slow Burn: The Hidden Costs of a Warming World (Princeton UP, 2025), R. Jisung Park encourages us to view climate change through a different lens: one that focuses less on the possibility of mass climate extinction in a theoretical future, and more on the everyday implications of climate change here and now.Drawing on a wealth of new data and cutting-edge economics, Park shows how climate change headlines often miss some of the most important costs. When wildfires blaze, what happens to people downwind of the smoke? When natural disasters destroy buildings and bridges, what happens to educational outcomes? Park explains how climate change operates as the silent accumulation of a thousand tiny conflagrations: imperceptibly elevated health risks spread across billions of people; pennies off the dollar of productivity; fewer opportunities for upward mobility.By investigating how the physical phenomenon of climate change interacts with social and economic institutions, Park illustrates how climate change already affects everyone, and may act as an amplifier of inequality. Wealthier households and corporations may adapt quickly, but, without targeted interventions, less advantaged communities may not.Viewing climate change as a slow and unequal burn comes with an important silver lining. It puts dollars and cents behind the case for aggressive emissions cuts and helps identify concrete steps that can be taken to better manage its adverse effects. We can begin to overcome our climate anxiety, Park shows us, when we begin to tackle these problems locally. This interview was conducted by Dr. Hannah Pool, a senior researcher at the Max Planck Institute for the Studies of Societies. Her research focuses on human mobilities and her new book has just been published (2025, Oxford University Press). Learn more about your ad choices.

Pope Leo is the first missionary Pope since St. Peter, and it is already quite evident how his formation as a missionary in Peru is guiding his papal ministry. Msgr. Roger Landry, the National Director of the Pontifical Mission Societies in the United States, shares how the Holy Father is walking in the footsteps of his predecessors by first reminding us that we are called to "go out to all the world and share the good news" with a missionary mindset and a willing heart. We would love it if you could leave a written review on Apple and share with your friends! Editing provided by Forte Catholic (https://www.fortecatholic.com/)
Who pays you, and how, for your work as a physical therapist? How health care is funded has implications for the way you work, and for the care that you can provide for patients. Societies all around the world are grappling with complex decisions about health care and how it is funded. Even more so as changing populations place different demands on health care systems, and as the health work force changes. Today, Dr Chris Bise (Assistant Professor, University of Pittsburgh) explains the changing face of health care funding, and what it means for the physical therapist. Chris has 25 years of experience as a physical therapist and health system analyst who studies value-based health care and physical therapy practice - trying to find better ways of funding health care to deliver outcomes that satisfy patients, clinicians and payers. ------------------------------ RESOURCES Building the foundation for value-based physical therapy: https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/jospt.2025.13586 Perspectives for Payers - Heel pain/plantarfasciopathy: https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/jospt.2025.0502 Perspectives for Payers - Achilles tendinopathy: https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/jospt.2025.0503

The Vulnerability of Mycenaeans and Minoans: Internal Decay and Collapse (Redux) AUTHOR NAME: Eric Cline BOOK TITLE: After 1177 BC, The Survival of Civilizations This discussion reiterates that the Minoans and Mycenaeans exemplify societies that did not survive the Bronze Age collapse, ranking them low on resilience. They are thought to have been fragile internally, collapsing under stress, potentially due to overextended ambitious construction projects. Their administrative writing (Linear B) offers no explanations for their demise, but names of their gods continued into the Iron Age.
The Vulnerability of Mycenaeans and Minoans: Internal Decay and Collapse AUTHOR NAME: Eric Cline BOOK TITLE: After 1177 BC, The Survival of Civilizations The Minoans and Mycenaeans are considered examples of societies that failed to survive the catastrophe. Though seemingly vibrant, they may have been vulnerable and rotted internally, collapsing when stressors hit, possibly due to overextension on ambitious construction projects. Writing from the era (Linear B) is purely administrative, providing no records of the reasons for their demise or leadership quality. Their societies vanish completely by the 11th century BC.
Assyrian Resilience: Leadership and Perpetual Warfare after 1177 BC AUTHOR NAME: Eric Cline BOOK TITLE: After 1177 BC, The Survival of Civilizations Professor Cline analyzes why societies like the Assyrians survived the 1177 BC collapse, identifying their successful leadership and redundant systems (government, military, writing). Since trade partners vanished, Assyrian leaders resorted to war almost yearly to acquire necessary resources. Their complex relationship with the Babylonians involved periods of alliance and fighting until the Babylonians eventually defeated them centuries later.

To seek asylum, people often have to cross borders undocumented, embarking on perilous trajectories. Due to the war in Afghanistan, the rule of the Taliban, and severe human rights violations, over the past decades thousands of people have risked their lives to seek safety. By what means do they make these journeys, especially when they lack money and passports?Over the course of three years, Hannah Pool accompanied a group of Afghan friends and families as they attempted "The Game" - Game zadan: the route to Europe to seek asylum. The resulting ethnography follows them across their entire trajectories: through Iran, Turkey, Greece, and along the so-called Balkan route. In each place, Pool details the economic interactions and social relationships essential for acquiring, saving, borrowing, spending, and exchanging money to facilitate their undocumented migration routes.The Game: The Economy of Undocumented Migration from Afghanistan to Europe (Oxford UP, 2025) bridges economic sociology and migration studies to illustrate how migrants decide to trust people to facilitate their movement along these routes, focusing particularly on debt, special monies, bribes, donations, and gift-giving. Throughout the migration trajectory, relationships with family, fellow migrants, smugglers, humanitarian actors, and border control officials shape and are shaped by access to financial resources.Ultimately, the book highlights the dangers in undocumented border-crossing and delves into the core of what it means to flee: Who has the means to escape dangerous conditions to seek asylum?

In each place, Pool details the economic interactions and social relationships essential for acquiring, saving, borrowing, spending, and exchanging money to facilitate their undocumented migration routes.The Game: The Economy of Undocumented Migration from Afghanistan to Europe (Oxford UP, 2025) bridges economic sociology and migration studies to illustrate how migrants decide to trust people to facilitate their movement along these routes, focusing particularly on debt, special monies, bribes, donations, and gift-giving. Throughout the migration trajectory, relationships with family, fellow migrants, smugglers, humanitarian actors, and border control officials shape and are shaped by access to financial resources.Ultimately, the book highlights the dangers in undocumented border-crossing and delves into the core of what it means to flee: Who has the means to escape dangerous conditions to seek asylum?

Ancient Roots of Life Episode 21 In this episode, JT & @templemaintenancejosh discuss the complex relationship between Israel and current global events, exploring public perceptions, prophetic implications, and the historical context of movements like Frankism. They discuss the influence of social media and secret societies on modern narratives, legislative support for Israel, and theological reflections on prophecy and judgment. This conversation delves into various themes including geocentrism, the significance of humanity in creation, the implications of Israel's existence, and the exploration of spiritual realms and alien theories. The speakers discuss historical prophecies, the role of judgment and redemption, and the importance of open-mindedness in theological discussions. They also touch on modern health insights and the chronological study of biblical texts, particularly focusing on the Maccabees and the cyclical nature of disobedience seen in the book of Judges.Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Modern Roots Life 00:46 Questioning Israel's Role in Current Events 03:50 Public Perception of Israel and Prophetic Implications 09:36 Exploring Frankism and Its Historical Context 15:24 The Influence of Secret Societies and Propaganda 23:29 The Role of Social Media in Modern Warfare 28:07 Legislative Support for Israel and Its Implications 37:36 Theological Reflections on Prophecy and Judgment 47:11 Exploring Geocentrism and Alien Theories 49:22 Historical Context of Prophecies and Plans 52:00 The Importance of Humanity in Creation 54:18 Speculations on Spiritual Realms and Alien Invasions 57:31 The Role of Israel in Prophetic Fulfillment 59:11 The Nature of Judgment and Redemption 01:00:57 Open-Mindedness in Theological Discussions 01:03:58 Modern Roots and Health Insights 01:05:27 Chronological Studies of Biblical Texts 01:08:51 The Maccabees and Historical Context 01:13:17 Judges and the Cycle of Disobedience 01:35:28 Understanding the Role of ProphetsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/jt-s-mix-tape--6579902/support.Please support our sponsor Modern Roots Life: https://modernrootslife.com/?bg_ref=rVWsBoOfcFJESUS SAID THERE WOULD BE HATERS Shirts: https://jtfollowsjc.com/product-category/mens-shirts/WOMEN'S SHIRTS: https://jtfollowsjc.com/product-category/womens-shirts/

This and all episodes at: https://aiandyou.net/ . As we use AI more and more as a critical assistant, what might that be doing to our critical thinking? Professor Michael Gerlich has published his research in the paper “AI Tools In Society: Impacts On Cognitive Offloading And The Future Of Critical Thinking” in the journal Societies. He showed that younger participants “exhibited higher dependence on AI tools and lower critical thinking scores compared to older participants.” That's the sort of result that demands we pay attention at a time when AI is being increasingly used by schools and students. Michael is the Head of Center for Strategic Corporate Foresight and Sustainability at SBS Swiss Business School.

He's also taught at the London School of Economics and Political Science, Cambridge, and other institutions. He's also been an adviser to the President and the Prime Minister of Kyrgyzstan, the Uzbekistan Cabinet, and Ministers of economic affairs in Azerbaijan. In part 2, we talk about whether or how we can tell that our cognition has been impaired, how the future of work will change with cognitive offloading and what employers need to beware of and leverage.

Federal court grants preliminary injunction blocking NH state law attacking diversity, equity, and inclusionLaw would have forced K-12 public school educators and colleges and universities to guess what was prohibited or risk loss of fundingThe court explained: "The breadth of the anti-DEI laws' prohibition is startling. The definition of 'DEI' contained therein is so far-reaching that it prohibits long-accepted even legally required teaching, and administrative practices. It is hard to imagine how schools could continue to operate at even a basic level if the laws' prohibitions were enforced to their full extent."Stephen Pimpare is Professor of Public Policy and Director of the Master in Public Policy program at Vermont Law and Graduate School.

12,000 years ago, human history changed forever when the egalitarian groups of hunter-gathering humans began to settle down and organize themselves into hierarchies. The few dominated the many, seizing control through violence. What emerged were “Goliaths”: large societies built on a collection of hierarchies that are also terrifyingly fragile, collapsing time after time across the world. Today, we live in a single, global Goliath—one that is precariously interdependent—under threat from nuclear war, climate change, and the existential risks of AI. The next collapse may be our last. Today’s guest is Luke Kemp, author of Goliath’s Curse. He conducts a historical autopsy on our species, from the earliest cities to the collapse of modern states like Somalia. Drawing on historical databases and the latest discoveries in archaeology and anthropology, he uncovers groundbreaking revelations: More democratic societies tend to be more resilient. A modern collapse is likely to be global, long-lasting, and more dire than ever before Collapse may be invisible until after it has occurred. It’s possible we’re living through one now. Collapse has often had a more positive outcome for the general population than for the 1%. All Goliaths contain the seeds of their own demise. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Can fractured societies pull themselves back from the brink? Is America doomed to slide into another civil war? Or, are we already engaged in a kind of Cold Civil War? In this episode of Context, we examine three powerful case studies of recovery: England emerging from the Wars of the Roses in the 15th century West Germany rising from the rubble of 1945 America clawing its way out of the malaise of the 1970s Each story reveals how societies that seemed broken beyond repair found ways to discipline elites, renew their principles, and restore confidence in themselves and in the future. As America faces mounting political violence and cultural fatigue, these examples remind us that collapse is not destiny. Renewal has always required sacrifice, leadership, and moral courage, but history proves it is possible.

Today we had the exciting opportunity to host Thomas Popik for a power-focused discussion. Thomas is the Chairman and President of the Foundation for Resilient Societies, a non-profit dedicated to strengthening the resilience and recoverability of critical infrastructure. In addition to his volunteer leadership at the Foundation, Thomas serves as a Principal at Geosegment Systems Corporation. He holds an MBA from Harvard and a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from MIT. The Foundation for Resilient Societies is distinguished by the depth of its scientific, economic, and legal expertise. Several of its directors have held senior policymaking positions in the U.S. Government and now continue their societal contributions through private action. The Foundation has been instrumental in advancing policies and recommendations to better protect the electrical grid and other vital systems from emerging threats. We were thrilled to host Thomas. In our conversation, Thomas outlines the mission of the Foundation and how its nonprofit status strengthens credibility, recruitment, and advocacy. He highlights the rising frequency of outage “near misses” that the public is largely unaware of, the Foundation's engagement with FERC, NERC, and DOE, and how this work has helped shift official recognition of risks, including DOE's recent warning of up to 800 blackout hours per year by 2030. Thomas traces how we arrived at this level of instability, with factors including a net loss of ~1% per year in dispatchable capacity over the past decade, the retirements of coal, older gas, and petroleum-fired plants, and their replacement with wind and solar, which lack dispatchability. He shares market history, from the pre-2000 overbuild that drove up rates, through the 2010s when flat load growth masked declining capacity, to 2024, with excess capacity gone and the grid maxed out. Thomas outlines near-term solutions for grid stability, including halting premature retirements of dispatchable generation, enabling the use of backup generators at critical infrastructure, and improving legal and regulatory mechanisms to prevent retirements and declare emergencies. On the consumer side, we discuss tools such as dynamic pricing to discourage peak-time consumption, shifting habits like EV charging, and aggregating flexible load reductions from schools, homes, and businesses. Thomas also highlights the importance of public messaging to encourage rapid conservation during emergencies and notes longer-term measures including building new dispatchable generation. As mentioned, the DOE Resource Adequacy Report published in July is linked here. We learned a lot from our conversation with Thomas and greatly appreciate him joining us. To start the show, Mike Bradley noted that markets seemed to be in “no man's land.” On the bond market front, the 10-year bond yield has risen over the last week, despite the Fed following through with a 25 basis-point interest rate cut and signaling the potential for two more cuts this year. Looking ahead, employment reports, rather than inflation reports, are likely going to be the Fed's main focus. On the broader market front, the S&P 500 continues to hit all-time highs but is beginning to feel like it's in no man's land given that the FOMC meeting is in the rearview mirror and Q3 earnings reports are not on tap for several more weeks. On the crude oil market front, WTI price continues to trade in the low to mid $60s/bbl due to the give/take of Russian oil sanctions/energy infrastructure damage versus concerns of a 2026 global oil surplus keeping a ceiling on oil prices. On the electricity/energy equity front, he highlighted Landbridge Company's strategic partnership with NRG Energy on a potential data center in the Delaware Basin and noted that Governor Shapiro of Pennsylvania warned this
New Jeruslaem and its Heavenly Doctrine 196...It is called spiritual temptation when the truths of faith which a man believes in his heart, and according to which he loves to live, are assaulted within him, especially when the good of love, in which he places his spiritual life, is assaulted. Those assaults take place in various ways; as by influx of scandals against truths and goods into the thoughts and the will; also by a continual drawing forth, and bringing to remembrance, of the evils which one has committed, and of the falsities which he has thought, thus by inundation of such things; and at the same time by an apparent shutting up of the interiors of the mind, and, consequently, of communication with heaven, by which the capacity of thinking from his own faith, and of willing from his own love, are intercepted. These things are effected by the evil spirits who are present with man; and when they take place, they appear under the form of interior anxieties and pains of conscience; for they affect and torment man's spiritual life, because he supposes that they proceed, not from evil spirits, but from his own interiors. Man does not know that such assaults are 1 from evil spirits because he does not know that spirits are present with him, evil spirits in his evils, and good spirits in his goods; and that they are in his thoughts and affections. These temptations are most grievous when they are accompanied with bodily pains; and still more so, when those pains are of long continuance, and no deliverance is granted, even although the Divine mercy is implored; hence results despair, which is the end. Arcana Coelestia 7720. Verses 24-end And Pharaoh called Moses, and said, Go, serve Jehovah; only your flocks and your herds will stay behind. Your little children also will go with you. And Moses said, You must also give into our hand sacrifices and burnt offerings, and we must make them to Jehovah our God. And our livestock also must go with us; not a hoof shall be left behind, for we must take some of them to serve Jehovah our God, and we ourselves do not know what we must serve Jehovah with until we get there. And Jehovah made Pharaoh's heart unyielding, and he would not send them away. And Pharaoh said to him, Go away from me; take care not to see my face again. For on the day you see my face you will die. And Moses said, Rightly have you spoken; I will not see your face again. 'And Pharaoh called Moses' means the presence of the law of God. 'And said, Go, serve Jehovah' means that they are to be left alone in order that they may worship the Lord their God. 'Only your flocks and your herds will stay behind' means but not from good. 'Your little children also will go with you' means that [they may worship Him] from truth. 'And Moses said' means the reply. 'You must also give into our hand sacrifices and burnt offerings' means that they must leave alone all the means through which worship must be offered. 'And we must make them to Jehovah our God' means which [worship] is acceptable to the Lord. 'And our livestock also must go with us' means that this [worship] must be from the good of truth. 'Not a hoof shall be left behind' means that nothing at all of the truth from good shall be lacking. 'For we must take some of them to serve Jehovah our God' means that they must be used in worship of the Lord. 'And we ourselves do not know what we must serve Jehovah our God with' means that what exactly will be needed for the worship to be performed is unknown. 'Until we get there' means until they have been removed from those steeped in utter falsities arising from evil. 'And Jehovah made Pharaoh's heart unyielding' means that they remained obstinately opposed to the Divine. 'And he would not send them away means that they had no mind to leave them. 'And Pharaoh said to him' means flaming anger at this point with God's truth. 'Go away from me means that he wished to know nothing at all about it.

Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message”What happens when the three necessary societies, the foundational pillars for human flourishing, crumble simultaneously? Jack and Veronica Burchard, Chief Operating Officer of Sophia Institute, explores how Pope Leo XIII's groundbreaking encyclical Rerum Novarum offers extraordinary wisdom for our modern cultural crisis.Burchard shares what motivated her to create "A Pocket Guide to Rerum Novarum," making this essential Catholic social teaching more accessible to today's readers. Together, they unpack how Leo XIII's prophetic vision of the three necessary societies—Marriage and the Family, Christ and the Church, and Polity-Civil Society—creates a framework for understanding human dignity and societal flourishing.The discussion reveals surprising relevance for today's young adults struggling under financial burdens that delay family formation and Leo XIII's teaching that "the family predates the state" and that private property rights flow from our responsibility to care for our families, and discover a liberating alternative to both socialist promises and unchecked capitalism.

8/8. Professor Eric Cline categorizes the Minoans (Crete) and Mycenaeans (mainland Greece) as societies that failedthe collapse in After 1177 BC, The Survival of Civilizations. Despite outward vibrancy, they were internally fragile and vulnerable, possibly due to overextension, drought, famine, or internal uprisings. Cline applies IPCC definitions, classifying societies as "transforming," "adapting," or "coping," with the Minoans and Mycenaeans ultimately disappearing completely, illustrating their failure to recover. 1700 BABYLON
