Court Jails Nnamdi Kanu For Life Over ENDSARS Protest, Army Couple Killinghttps://osazuwaakonedo.news/court-jails-nnamdi-kanu-for-life-over-endsars-protest-army-couple-killing/#Law #Biafra #Ihiala #Kanu #Lagos #Nnamdi ©November 21st, 2025 ®November 21, 2025 9:48 pm Justice James Omotosho of the Federal High Court sitting in Abuja, Nigeria Federal Capital Territory on Thursday convicted and sentenced Mazi Nnamdi Kanu to a passionate prison term of life imprisonment against the penalty of Death sentence he said he ought to have pronounced on the Biafra Republic agitation leader over the statements Mazi Nnamdi Kanu made on October 20, 2020 through Radio Biafra during the war like situation between the civilian population and Nigeria security operatives following series of reports that the Nigeria security operatives were shooting and killing innocent unarmed protesters, who were protesting against bad government and Police brutalities tagged Endsars protest, Justice Omotosho in his ruling, said, Nnamdi Kanu was responsible for the killing of 175 security operatives during the Endsars civil-military war like situation on October 20, 2020, and Justice Omotosho in his ruling, failed to state the numbers of civilians that were killed by Nigeria security operatives during the war like situation that apparently forced Nnamdi Kanu to start teaching the civilians on how to manufacture molotov cocktail also known as petrol bombs, urging them to go and meet welders to buy bullet proof doors from the welders to defend themselves and launched a retaliatory defensive attacks against the Nigeria security operatives who were accused of turning the peaceful protest into a barrage of gunfire, human rights violations and abuses, Justice Omotosho convicted Nnamdi Kanu on counts 4 and 5 over the Endsars protest and he described Nnamdi Kanu action during the violent-protest as an act of terrorism, on count one, Justice Omotosho convicted Nnamdi Kanu for an act of Preparatory to commit terrorism over statements made by Nnamdi Kanu in May 2021, Justice Omotosho in the ruling claimed and ruled that Nnamdi Kanu declared war against security operatives in the South East states without provocation, this statement by Justice Omotosho apparently made him looked like a biased person, because after Justice Omotosho read the entire seven count charge and convicted Nnamdi Kanu, Justice Omotosho thereafter recognized a media news report and broadcast of Nnamdi Kanu on April 25, 2021, wherein, Nnamdi Kanu vowed to avenge the killing of Ikonso, the then Head of Eastern Security Network, ESN, by a combined team of Nigeria security operatives led by the Nigerian Army under the command of former Chief of Army Staff, Late Lieutenant General Taoreed Lagbaja who was then the General Officer Commanding, G.O.C 82 Division, the Nigerian Army insisted in its report that Ikonso was killed during exchange of gunfire with the security operatives, but, Nnamdi Kanu rejected the claim and repeatedly stated that Ikonso was killed in his sleep and the killing was a pure case of assassination by the Federal Government of Nigeria as a way to weaken the people of South East states and denied them the ability to be able to establish the Eastern Security Network, ESN to defend themselves against Boko Haram terrorists and expansionist foreign Fulani invaders from different countries like Mali, Gambia, Senegal, Nigerien Republic and Chad that were advancing from the Northern part of Nigeria and cruising through the Middle belt states to South East, South West and South South States, for the record, killing of Ikonso by security operatives apparently marked the genesis of the full scale guerrilla war between the Biafra armed group and the Armed Forces of Nigeria including other Nigeria security operatives, Justice Omotosho also convicted Nnamdi Kanu for the creation of unlawful organisation over the establishment of ESN in a broadcast Nnamdi Kanu made in December 2020, stating that the ESN has been created to protect the people of South east against Boko Haram terrorists, after the ruling, Justice Omotosho stated that the Boko Haram terrorists among other terrorist groups are making people not to enjoy life in Nigeria, thereafter, the Prosecution lawyer, Adegboyega Awomolo told the court that in the last few days or weeks, Nigeria has been a season of victim upon victims of terrorism, Adegboyega's statement maybe inline with the current high rate of attacks by terrorists advancing from the Northern Nigeria to the Southern part, kidnapping and killing people like never before, that aside, Justice Omotosho also ruled that Nnamdi Kanu was responsible for the killing of Ahmed Gulak, the former presidential aide who was killed on May 30th, 2021 in Owerri on his way to the airport after conducting election primary, according to Justice Omotosho, Nnamdi Ka. #OsazuwaAkonedoBecome a supporter of this podcast:

For years, Nnamdi Kanu's name has fueled controversy in Nigeria, especially in the South East, as he faces serious charges and calls for his release persist. Now sentenced to life imprisonment after the Federal High Court in Abuja upheld his continued detention, many are questioning whether justice is being served or delayed. In this episode of Nigeria Daily, we examine the ruling's implications, reactions from the South East, and what lies ahead as Kanu remains without legal representation.

Nature drew its own with waterways and mountain ranges and ecosystems and tectonic plates. We drew our maps on top of these, to track our roads and borders and political districts and pipelines and railroad tracks.Our maps are functional, simplistic. They insist on fictions. Like the 1,260-mile-long imaginary straight line that supposedly splices the United States from Canada between Washington State and Minnesota. This frontier is real so long as we say so, but if humanity disappeared tomorrow, so would that line.Nature's maps are more resilient. This is where water flows because this is where water flows. If we all go away, the water keeps flowing. This flow, in turn, impacts the shape and function of the entire world.One of nature's most interesting maps is its mountain map. For most of human existence, mountains mattered much more to us than they do now. Meaning: we had to respect these giant rocks because they stood convincingly in our way. It took European settlers centuries to navigate en masse over the Appalachians, which is not even a severe mountain range, by global mountain-range standards. But paved roads and tunnels and gas stations every five miles have muted these mountains' drama. You can now drive from the Atlantic Ocean to the Midwest in half a day.So spoiled by infrastructure, we easily forget how dramatically mountains command huge parts of our world. In America, we know this about our country: the North is cold and the South is warm. And we define these regions using battle maps from a 19th Century war that neatly bisected the nation. Another imaginary line. We travel south for beaches and north to ski and it is like this everywhere, a gentle progression, a continent-length slide that warms as you descend from Alaska to Panama.But mountains disrupt this logic. Because where the land goes up, the air grows cooler. And there are mountains all over. And so we have skiing not just in expected places such as Vermont and Maine and Michigan and Washington, but in completely irrational ones like Arizona and New Mexico and Southern California. And North Carolina.North Carolina. That's the one that surprised me. When I started skiing, I mean. Riding hokey-poke chairlifts up 1990s Midwest hills that wouldn't qualify as rideable surf breaks, I peered out at the world to figure out where else people skied and what that skiing was like. And I was astonished by how many places had organized skiing with cut trails and chairlifts and lift tickets, and by how many of them were way down the Michigan-to-Florida slide-line in places where I thought that winter never came: West Virginia and Virginia and Maryland. And North Carolina.Yes there are ski areas in more improbable states. But Cloudmont, situated in, of all places, Alabama, spins its ropetow for a few days every other year or so. North Carolina, home to six ski areas spinning a combined 35 chairlifts, allows for no such ambiguity: this is a ski state. And these half-dozen ski centers are not marginal operations: Sugar Mountain and Cataloochee opened for the season last week, and they sometimes open in October. Sugar spins a six-pack and two detach quads on a 1,200-foot vertical drop.This geographic quirk is a product of our wonderful Appalachian Mountain chain, which reaches its highest points not in New England but in North Carolina, where Mount Mitchell peaks at 6,684 feet, 396 feet higher than the summit of New Hampshire's Mount Washington. This is not an anomaly: North Carolina is home to six summits taller than Mount Washington, and 12 of the 20-highest in the Appalachians, a range that stretches from Alabama to Newfoundland. And it's not just the summits that are taller in North Carolina. The highest ski area base elevation in New England is Saddleback, which measures 2,147 feet at the bottom of the South Branch quad (the mountain more typically uses the 2,460-foot measurement at the bottom of the Rangeley quad). Either way, it's more than 1,000 feet below the lowest base-area elevation in North Carolina:Unfortunately, mountains and elevation don't automatically equal snow. And the Southern Appalachians are not exactly the Kootenays. It snows some, sometimes, but not so much, so often, that skiing can get by on nature's contributions alone - at least not in any commercially reliable form. It's no coincidence that North Carolina didn't develop any organized ski centers until the 1960s, when snowmaking machines became efficient and common enough for mass deployment. But it's plenty cold up at 4,000 feet, and there's no shortage of water. Snowguns proved to be skiing's last essential ingredient.Well, there was one final ingredient to the recipe of southern skiing: roads. Back to man's maps. Specifically, America's interstate system, which steamrolled the countryside throughout the 1960s and passes just a few miles to Hatley Pointe's west. Without these superhighways, western North Carolina would still be a high-peaked wilderness unknown and inaccessible to most of us.It's kind of amazing when you consider all the maps together: a severe mountain region drawn into the borders of a stable and prosperous nation that builds physical infrastructure easing the movement of people with disposable income to otherwise inaccessible places that have been modified for novel uses by tapping a large and innovative industrial plant that has reduced the miraculous – flight, electricity, the internet - to the commonplace. And it's within the context of all these maps that a couple who knows nothing about skiing can purchase an established but declining ski resort and remake it as an upscale modern family ski center in the space of 18 months.What we talked aboutHurricane Helene fallout; “it took every second until we opened up to make it there,” even with a year idle; the “really tough” decision not to open for the 2023-24 ski season; “we did not realize what we were getting ourselves into”; buying a ski area when you've never worked at a ski area and have only skied a few times; who almost bought Wolf Ridge and why Orville picked the Hatleys instead; the importance of service; fixing up a broken-down ski resort that “felt very old”; updating without losing the approachable family essence; why it was “absolutely necessary” to change the ski area's name; “when you pulled in, the first thing that you were introduced to … were broken-down machines and school buses”; Bible verses and bare trails and busted-up everything; “we could have spent two years just doing cleanup of junk and old things everywhere”; Hatley Pointe then and now; why Hatley removed the double chair; a detachable six-pack at Hatley?; chairlifts as marketing and branding tools; why the Breakaway terrain closed and when it could return and in what form; what a rebuilt summit lodge could look like; Hatley Pointe's new trails; potential expansion; a day-ski area, a resort, or both?; lift-served mountain bike park incoming; night-skiing expansion; “I was shocked” at the level of après that Hatley drew, and expanding that for the years ahead; North Carolina skiing is all about the altitude; re-opening The Bowl trail; going to online-only sales; and lessons learned from 2024-25 that will build a better Hatley for 2025-26.What I got wrongWhen we recorded this conversation, the ski area hadn't yet finalized the name of the new green trail coming off of Eagle – it is Pat's Way (see trailmap above).I asked if Hatley intended to install night-skiing, not realizing that they had run night-ski operations all last winter.Why now was a good time for this interviewPardon my optimism, but I'm feeling good about American lift-served skiing right now. Each of the past five winters has been among the top 10 best seasons for skier visits, U.S. ski areas have already built nearly as many lifts in the 2020s (246) as they did through all of the 2010s (288), and multimountain passes have streamlined the flow of the most frequent and passionate skiers between mountains, providing far more flexibility at far less cost than would have been imaginable even a decade ago.All great. But here's the best stat: after declining throughout the 1980s and ‘90s, the number of active U.S. ski areas stabilized around the turn of the century, and has actually increased for five consecutive winters:Those are National Ski Areas Association numbers, which differ slightly from mine. I count 492 active ski hills for 2023-24 and 500 for last winter, and I project 510 potentially active ski areas for the 2025-26 campaign. But no matter: the number of active ski operations appears to be increasing.But the raw numbers matter less than the manner in which this uptick is happening. In short: a new generation of owners is resuscitating lost or dying ski areas. Many have little to no ski industry experience. Driven by nostalgia, a sense of community duty, plain business opportunity, or some combination of those things, they are orchestrating massive ski area modernization projects, funded via their own wealth – typically earned via other enterprises – or by rallying a donor base.Examples abound. When I launched The Storm in 2019, Saddleback, Maine; Norway Mountain, Michigan; Woodward Park City; Thrill Hills, North Dakota; Deer Mountain, South Dakota; Paul Bunyan, Wisconsin; Quarry Road, Maine; Steeplechase, Minnesota; and Snowland, Utah were all lost ski areas. All are now open again, and only one – Woodward – was the project of an established ski area operator (Powdr). Cuchara, Colorado and Nutt Hill, Wisconsin are on the verge of re-opening following decades-long lift closures. Bousquet, Massachusetts; Holiday Mountain, New York; Kissing Bridge, New York; and Black Mountain, New Hampshire were disintegrating in slow-motion before energetic new owners showed up with wrecking balls and Home Depot frequent-shopper accounts. New owners also re-energized the temporarily dormant Sandia Peak, New Mexico and Tenney, New Hampshire.One of my favorite revitalization stories has been in North Carolina, where tired, fire-ravaged, investment-starved, homey-but-rickety Wolf Ridge was falling down and falling apart. The ski area's season ended in February four times between 2018 and 2023. Snowmaking lagged. After an inferno ate the summit lodge in 2014, no one bothered rebuilding it. Marooned between the rapidly modernizing North Carolina ski trio of Sugar Mountain, Cataloochee, and Beech, Wolf Ridge appeared to be rapidly fading into irrelevance.Then the Hatleys came along. Covid-curious first-time skiers who knew little about skiing or ski culture, they saw opportunity where the rest of us saw a reason to keep driving. Fixing up a ski area turned out to be harder than they'd anticipated, and they whiffed on opening for the 2023-24 winter. Such misses sometimes signal that the new owners are pulling their ripcords as they launch out of the back of the plane, but the Hatleys kept working. They gut-renovated the lodge, modernized the snowmaking plant, tore down an SLI double chair that had witnessed the signing of the Declaration of Independence. And last winter, they re-opened the best version of the ski area now known as Hatley Pointe that locals had seen in decades.A great winter – one of the best in recent North Carolina history – helped. But what I admire about the Hatleys – and this new generation of owners in general – is their optimism in a cultural moment that has deemed optimism corny and naïve. Everything is supposed to be terrible all the time, don't you know that? They didn't know, and that orientation toward the good, tempered by humility and patience, reversed the long decline of a ski area that had in many ways ceased to resonate with the world it existed in.The Hatleys have lots left to do: restore the Breakaway terrain, build a new summit lodge, knot a super-lift to the frontside. And their Appalachian salvage job, while impressive, is not a very repeatable blueprint – you need considerable wealth to take a season off while deploying massive amounts of capital to rebuild the ski area. The Hatley model is one among many for a generation charged with modernizing increasingly antiquated ski areas before they fall over dead. Sometimes, as in the examples itemized above, they succeed. But sometimes they don't. Comebacks at Cockaigne and Hickory, both in New York, fizzled. Sleeping Giant, Wyoming and Ski Blandford, Massachusetts both shuttered after valiant rescue attempts. All four of these remain salvageable, but last week, Four Seasons, New York closed permanently after 63 years.That will happen. We won't be able to save every distressed ski area, and the potential supply of new or revivable ski centers, barring massive cultural and regulatory shifts, will remain limited. But the protectionist tendencies limiting new ski area development are, in a trick of human psychology, the same ones that will drive the revitalization of others – the only thing Americans resist more than building something new is taking away something old. Which in our country means anything that was already here when we showed up. A closed or closing ski area riles the collective angst, throws a snowy bat signal toward the night sky, a beacon and a dare, a cry and a plea: who wants to be a hero?Podcast NotesOn Hurricane HeleneHelene smashed inland North Carolina last fall, just as Hatley was attempting to re-open after its idle year. Here's what made the storm so bad:On Hatley's socialsFollow:On what I look for at a ski resortOn the Ski Big Bear podcastIn the spirit of the article above, one of the top 10 Storm Skiing Podcast guest quotes ever came from Ski Big Bear, Pennsylvania General Manager Lori Phillips: “You treat everyone like they paid a million dollars to be there doing what they're doing”On ski area name changesI wrote a piece on Hatley's name change back in 2023:Ski area name changes are more common than I'd thought. I've been slowly documenting past name changes as I encounter them, so this is just a partial list, but here are 93 active U.S. ski areas that once went under a different name. If you know of others, please email me.On Hatley at the point of purchase and nowGigantic collections of garbage have always fascinated me. That's essentially what Wolf Ridge was at the point of sale:It's a different place now:On the distribution of six-packs across the nationSix-pack chairlifts are rare and expensive enough that they're still special, but common enough that we're no longer amazed by them. Mostly - it depends on where we find such a machine. Just 112 of America's 3,202 ski lifts (3.5 percent) are six-packs, and most of these (75) are in the West (60 – more than half the nation's total, are in Colorado, Utah, or California). The Midwest is home to a half-dozen six-packs, all at Boyne or Midwest Family Ski Resorts operations, and the East has 31 sixers, 17 of which are in New England, and 12 of which are in Vermont. If Hatley installed a sixer, it would be just the second such chairlift in North Carolina, and the fifth in the Southeast, joining the two at Wintergreen, Virginia and the one at Timberline, West Virginia.On the Breakaway fireWolf Ridge's upper-mountain lodge burned down in March 2014.

Jason “JJ Boogie” Reichert is a multi-instrumentalist, producer, mix engineer, and longtime member of the Grammy-winning hip-hop collective Arrested Development — making him one of the most influential creators in conscious hip-hop and alternative rap. In this episode, we dive deep into JJ Boogie's musical evolution, his creative process, and his global touring legacy as a guitarist, drummer, co-writer, co-producer, mixer, masterer, and front-of-house engineer.JJ first met Speech Thomas in 1998, joining the group just before the release of their third album, and he's been shaping the sound of socially conscious hip-hop ever since. As a winner of the 2018 Black Music Awards and a core part of Arrested Development's world tours and studio catalog, JJ brings decades of artistry, innovation, and lived experience to this conversation.We also explore his life beyond the stage — from his 20-year musical partnership with his wife, Nanyana Summer (yes… Dolly Parton's distant cousin!), to their countless gigs across the Southeast, to the pride he carries as a father of two who celebrate his work every step of the way.This is a rich, soulful, behind-the-scenes look at an artist whose fingerprints have shaped generations of listeners.

Today on Consuming the Craft, I welcome back Charlie Stanley from Oak and Grist Distilling Company in Black Mountain, North Carolina. We dive deep into the journey of a small craft distillery navigating the challenges of being in a control state, the growth of Oak and Grist's product line, and the evolution of their spirits since Charlie's last visit. We geek out on the technical and creative aspects of distillation, address the headaches of marketing and distribution in North Carolina's ABC system, and celebrate unique spirits — like their incredible Genever and the Peachwood-Smoked Single Malt. Along the way, we share a sensory deep-dive with a glass of Armagnac and touch on the resilience it takes to keep a craft beverage business alive, especially in the wake of devastating storms. Charlie Stanley is an alum of AB Tech's Craft Beverage Institute and serves as lead distiller at Oak and Grist. With almost six years under his belt at the distillery, Charlie brings a wealth of knowledge in production, blending, and creative problem solving. Whether it's crafting rare spirits like American Genever from scratch or adapting to unpredictable market forces, his experience and dedication are evident in every bottle. Beyond the production floor, Charlie has been an invaluable educator for both staff and the broader beverage community, returning often to AB Tech to share his expertise. "Genever is the whiskey drinker's gin... there's so much more grain flavor, a balance of malt sweetness and botanicals." ~Charlie Stanley Today on Consuming the Craft:·     Oak and Grist has expanded their offerings and matured their products significantly in the past six years, focusing on quality and evolution.·     The ABC system in North Carolina requires distilleries to adapt to a unique, fragmented, and sometimes frustrating structure for spirits sales and distribution.·     Education is essential—both for distillers and retail staff—to help consumers understand and appreciate local spirits.·     Oak and Grist produces a rare, authentic American Genever that's 100% single malt and distilled entirely in-house without sourcing.·     The distillery uses only full-size 53-gallon barrels for aging, favoring balance and complexity over rapid wood extraction from small barrels.·     Their Smoke Series features whiskeys made from North Carolina craft malt smoked with fruit woods like peach, resulting in nuanced and balanced spirits.·     Surviving Hurricane Helene was a challenge, but it ultimately broadened Oak and Grist's statewide presence and reaffirmed their resilience.·     Continuing education, community connections, and creative blending are all core to Oak and Grist's ongoing success.

Welcome to the Christian's Hour Program, Thanks for joining us! TCH is a ministry of Gospel Broadcasting Mission. GBM's mission is to broadcast the message of Jesus, in their heart's language, to unreached people groups and tribes world-wide.This week we celebrate Thanksgiving, a National Holiday since 1863, that traces its origins to the Pilgrims in 1621. Thanksgiving's origins came out of a deep-rooted sense of gratitude to God. These days it almost seems the Holiday is tied more to family gatherings and meals, and giving thanks is secondary. Maybe it's time for a “course correction” to get back to our roots of giving thanks, to God?!This month, Bob Russell, is helping us with an “Thanksgiving Season - Heart Check” in preparation for a more meaningful Thanksgiving. Bob Russell is a retired senior minister of Southeast Christian Church in Louisville, Kentucky, where he served for 40 years as “Southeast” became one of the largest churches in America. There is an old proverb that says “you reap what you sow”. In today's message, “An Attitude of Gratitude” Bob has 5 ways we can sow an attitude that can help us transform our personalities into someone who radiates Thanksgiving. Here's Bob to talk more than turkey! To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/326/29?v=20251111

In this episode of Supply Chain Now, hosts Scott Luton and Kim Reuter welcome Bobby Holland, Vice President/Director of Freight Business Analytics at U.S. Bank, and Heather Shilt, Director, Global Logistics at Fortive, to unpack Q3 2025 findings from the U.S. Bank Freight Payment Index, one of the industry's most referenced trucking indicators, informed by tens of billions in transactions. The panel explores why volumes are down even as costs rise, how tariffs and manufacturing softness are reshaping regional performance, and where rate pressure and capacity tightness are showing up first.Together, they dig into nine key takeaways from the national and regional views (West, Southwest, Midwest, Northeast, Southeast): most significant sequential gains in the West in four years, persistent softness in the Southwest, and mixed signals elsewhere as consumer demand, housing starts, and labor dynamics tug the market in different directions. From shipper playbooks (carrier-mix depth, lane-level cost vigilance, and alternate modes) to practical watch-outs for Q4 and early 2026, this data-driven conversation equips operators to trend, plan, and pressure-test their assumptions in a volatile environment.Jump into the conversation:(00:00) Intro(06:26) Freight market overview(07:09) National freight insights(16:17) Regional analysis: West(20:22) Regional analysis: Southwest(22:05) Southwest region analysis(22:25) Impact of construction activity on freight(23:52) Midwest region insights(26:16) Northeast region overview(29:13) Southeast region trends(33:06) Global supply chain leadership(35:27) Freight market predictions(41:10) Housing starts and freight impactAdditional Links & Resources:Download the complete Q3 2025 U.S. Bank Freight Payment Index: https://freight.usbank.comLearn more about U.S. Bank: https://www.usbank.com Learn more about Fortive: https://www.fortive.com Connect with Bobby Holland: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bobby-holland-4a9355/ Connect with Heather Shilt: https://www.linkedin.com/in/heather-shilt-4a867430/ Learn more about our hosts: https://supplychainnow.com/about Learn more about Supply Chain Now: https://supplychainnow.com Watch and listen to more Supply Chain Now episodes here: https://supplychainnow.com/program/supply-chain-now Subscribe to Supply Chain Now on your favorite platform: https://supplychainnow.com/join Work with us!

Send us a textSome tee times unlock more than a fairway. They open doors for families fighting through the longest days of their lives. We sat down with Ryan Bush from the Fore Hadley Foundation and our friend Mike of Beautiful Golf Courses to share how a daughter's story became a force for good—funding CDH research, survivor scholarships, and NICU grants—through an annual charity auction that also happens to deliver the most exciting golf itinerary you'll build all year.We walk through Hadley's journey and the reality of congenital diaphragmatic hernia, then map the three pillars Fore Hadley supports: cutting-edge pediatric research across leading centers, college scholarships for survivors who often return to care as nurses and NICU pros, and the Angels in the NICU program that sends rolling grants and holiday care packages nationwide. The heart of the engine is the auction: members and clubs donate rounds, public courses offer select tee times, and golfers bid on access to private clubs, international links, and serious stay-and-plays. Think Old Head in Ireland, Lofoten in Norway, Dismal River in the Sandhills, Dormy Network experiences, and West Coast and Southeast standouts—all curated and amplified to a massive audience.You'll get practical, no-fluff guidance on how to register and bid on Handbid, when the action spikes, and how to sort lots to build a year of golf you'll talk about for a decade. We also spotlight why donating a tee time or hosting an accompanied round is a no-brainer for clubs: tax-deductible support, real social reach, and new fans who return for merch, meals, and more. Along the way, we trade notes on Sand Valley, Bandon Trails, Arizona peak season sticker shock, and why the planning text thread is the best part of any trip.If golf is your love language, this is your moment. Download Handbid, search “Fore Hadley,” set your watchlist, and get your card on file before the opening bell. Bid big, book that dream round, and help families who need it most. If this moved you, subscribe, share the show with your group chat, and leave a quick review so more golfers can find and fuel the mission.https://events.handbid.com/auctions/fore-hadley-and-bgcs-2025-beautiful-golf-charity-auctionSupport the showSpecial thank goes out to our show sponsors:

Major wins for wildlife management and new hunting opportunities highlight a pivotal week for outdoorsmen. This week's Sportsmen's Voice Roundup covers one of the most encouraging conservation wins of the year. Fred opens with a deep dive into Washington's wolf-management shakeup, where a court dismissed a lawsuit that blocked lethal removal authority during active livestock depredations. CSF's Assistant Manager, Northwestern States Marie Neumiller joins the show with boots-on-the-ground insight into wolf behavior, non-lethal deterrents, and how lawsuits can undermine science-based wildlife management. The team provides clarity on wolf depredation thresholds, why lethal removal is necessary no matter what the anti-hunters say, and how litigation disrupts effective predator control for ranchers and wildlife managers alike.   From there, we shift east to Maryland, where CSF's own Kaleigh Leager, Assistant Manager, Mid-Atlantic States has been appointed to the Migratory Game Bird Advisory Committee, an influential body shaping waterfowl hunting regulations and habitat conservation across the Atlantic Flyway. Learn why this Committee matters, what species are directly affected, and how sportsmen's voices influence state-level gamebird policy.   We then head to Wisconsin for an update on the Knowles-Nelson Stewardship Program, a cornerstone conservation funding mechanism now fighting for reauthorization. Hear how land access, habitat improvement, and long-term investment in hunting and fishing opportunities hinge on the outcome.   Finally, we wrap with a look at surging black bear hunting opportunities across the Southeast. From Florida to Louisiana to North Carolina, thriving bear populations and science-based management are opening new doors for hunters seeking adventure, wild game, and conservation impact.   Get the FREE Sportsmen's Voice e-publication in your inbox every Monday: www.congressionalsportsmen.org/newsletter   Follow The Sportsmen's Voice wherever you get your podcasts: https://podfollow.com/1705085498  Learn more about your ad choices.

A South-East Clare community is expressing shock and dismay over the sudden postponement of a hearing that could decide the future of a contentious windfarm development. An Coimisúin Pleanála was due to hear from seven speakers at Treacy's Oakwood Hotel tomorrow regarding aviation safety concerns over Ballycar Green Energy's plans to construct 12 turbines of up 150 metres in height near Meelick. The meeting was suddenly cancelled last night , with ACP stating the developer and AirNav Ireland would be entering into further negotiations, and that the case would be refixed for a date in January. Ardnacrusha Fianna Fáil Councillor Rachel Hartigan has been telling Clare FM's Daragh Dolan that it's not good enough for local residents.

The episode features brothers Billy and Tommy Hall of Halls Chophouse, sharing how their late father's “service before self” philosophy, honed in luxury hotels, became the backbone of a family-run steakhouse that launched in 2009 on a rough stretch of King Street in Charleston during the Great Recession and slowly grew into a 10-restaurant hospitality group across the Southeast. They talk about treating every guest like they're walking into their home: handshakes and hugs at the door, learning names and stories, grabbing Dr Peppers and pizzas from other businesses if that's what it takes, writing stacks of handwritten thank-you notes every night, and viewing each shift as a “battle” to change someone's day for the better. Along the way they dive into hiring for attitude over polish, leading by example on the floor, managing through brutal beef prices while protecting quality via long-term relationships with suppliers, balancing a 24/7 business with family life, and the deep gratitude they feel for guests who choose to spend their hard-earned money in a place that strives to make them feel seen, known, and validated.Key Takeaways Hospitality is in their DNA.Billy and Tommy grew up as “hotel brats,” moving 23 times while their dad ran iconic properties; service before self wasn't a training module, it was simply how their family lived. Halls started in the worst of times and places.The first Halls Chophouse opened in 2008–2009 on a then-boarded-up stretch of King Street during a severe economic downturn, and early nights saw as few as 17 guests. It's a true family business.Mom, dad, brothers, sister, and even grandma were all in the building at the start; their mother still works brunches and decorates for holidays, and Tommy's kids now grow up in the restaurants. Growth has been deliberate and values-driven.What started as one steakhouse has grown into 10 concepts, including Rita's Seaside Grill on Folly Beach, Halls locations in Greenville, Columbia, Somerville, Nashville, and a seafood concept, Halls Catch, all built around the same hospitality standards. They treat every day like game day.Drawing on Tommy's sports background, they see restaurant service as a daily battle; “you're only as good as your last steak,” and winning with guests (sales) fixes a lot of other problems. They hire for heart, not just skills.The focus is on good people with great attitudes and energy, then giving them freedom to be human and connect instead of reciting scripts; managers are expected to model that behavior. Old-school touches still win in a digital world.Handshakes, eye contact, remembering names, personally walking guests to the restroom, and sending 70+ handwritten thank-you notes a night are non-negotiables that make guests feel truly valued. “Yes” is the default answer.If a kid wants pizza or a guest wants Dr Pepper, they'll go down the street or across the way to get it; they refuse to hide behind “we don't have that” when a little extra effort can delight someone. They manage headwinds by doubling down on experience.Even as beef prices surge and costs climb, they stay committed to top-tier product through long relationships with suppliers like Allen Brothers, and make up for higher prices by delivering unforgettable service. They see guests as family and the journey as a marathon.To their regulars who visit multiple times a week and to first-timers alike, their message is simple: thank you, tell us when we fall short, and know we're in this for the long haul, not a quick hit.

The November 18 edition of the AgNet News Hour offered a fascinating look into the future of California agriculture as hosts Nick Papagni and Josh McGill interviewed Taylor Wetli, U.S. Commercial Manager for Solinftec, the global ag-tech company behind the SOLIX autonomous sprayer. The discussion highlighted how robotics, AI, and solar power are transforming fieldwork and offering growers new tools to save money, time, and labor.   Wetli explained that the SOLIX platform is an autonomous scouting and spraying robot that uses solar energy and AI to identify and target weeds in real time. “It's like a Roomba for the field,” he said. “It navigates on its own, monitors crop health, and applies herbicide only where weeds exist — saving farmers up to 90 percent on chemical use.”   The unit's design is entirely self-sustaining. “It's powered by solar panels and a lithium-ion battery,” Wetli said. “Even after 14 hours in the field, the battery still runs above 80 percent. The system is efficient, continuous, and fully autonomous.”   Papagni noted that California farmers are constantly battling rising costs and labor shortages, and technology like this could be a game changer. Wetli agreed, explaining that the technology is built to optimize input use and reduce dependence on manual labor. “Labor is one of the biggest challenges in agriculture,” he said. “This doesn't replace people — it helps them work smarter. Growers can focus on higher-level decisions instead of spending time on repetitive field tasks.”   The SOLIX system also collects valuable agronomic data, measuring crop height, stand count, and row spacing, while continuously scanning for weeds and disease. “It's like having an agronomist in the field 24/7,” Wetli said. “The robot never stops learning and helping farmers make better decisions.”   Papagni pointed out the irony that while he's not a fan of solar panels taking up farmland, he supports this form of solar use. “You've got the solar on top of the unit, not in the field,” he said. “That's the kind of innovation I can get behind.”   Wetli, who grew up on a corn and soybean farm near Purdue University, said he's seen firsthand how technology is transforming traditional farming. “I've been with Solinftec for six years,” he said. “When we started, the robot looked like a ping-pong table rolling across the field. Now it's a 40-foot-wide, fully autonomous sprayer that can scout and spray crops all day long. The evolution has been incredible.”   Although Solinftec's current focus has been the Midwest and Southeast, Wetli confirmed that California is next. “We met a lot of growers at FIRA USA this year,” he said. “There's major interest in bringing the SOLIX platform to specialty crops — from vegetables to tree nuts — and we're looking forward to expanding into the West.”   Papagni and McGill both praised Wetli's vision, saying automation represents the bridge between “today's farming and tomorrow's.” Papagni added, “We talk about making ag tech attractive to the next generation — this is how we do it. We bring in tech-savvy young people and show them agriculture can be high-tech and high-impact.” Wetli closed by encouraging California farmers to learn more. “Our goal is to help growers cut costs, improve productivity, and make smarter, data-driven decisions,” he said. “We're here to make farming easier and more sustainable.” Papagni ended the show with his trademark enthusiasm. “This is the future of farming,” he said. “Automation doesn't replace the farmer — it empowers them.”

As Louisianans, we count among our blessings an abundance of fresh, local seafood and the fishers who spend their days on boats catching that haul for us to devour. However, people in many places do not have access to such natural resources. And even those of us who do have seen favorite aquatic species on the verge of extinction. This week, we talk with three people who are helping to sustain our favorite seafood, making sure they are still around for generations to come. First up is Julie Qiu, co-founder of the Oyster Master Guild and the world's first official oyster sommelier. It's a term she coined and a title she has certainly earned. Julie spent 15 years sampling and learning about oysters in 24 countries on six continents. Her contribution to seafood sustainability comes in the form of spreading her love and considerable knowledge of oysters to other aficionados. Next, we hear from Eli Kirshtein of Inland Foods, the largest seafood distributor in the Southeast, supplying more than 5,500 restaurants and 2,500 retail outlets. Founded in 1977 by an avid fisherman, the company has also earned a reputation as an industry leader in responsible sustainability practices. While that is a laudable position to have, Eli explains that ensuring sustainability is really the only way forward if people want to keep enjoying seafood. Finally, we speak with Athena Davis of the Aquaculture Stewardship Council, an international organization dedicated to transforming the worldwide seafood farming industry into a sustainable source of healthy food.

Memories of J.C. Holdway from his sister, Juanita Holdway Evans; Chef Joseph Lenn; and her daughter, Emily Lenn. Fred Saucepan shares Joe and Janette Carter's Chow Chow recipe and kitchen memories. Today, I went to the deep freeze and pulled out a recording that I made in 2016 with Chef Joseph Lenn, Joseph's mother (Emily Lenn), and a late friend of mine, Juanita Evans, who was Joseph Lenn's grandmother and the sister of J.C. Holdway. J.C. Holdway is the namesake of the downtown Knoxville restaurant created by Chef Joseph Lenn and named after his Uncle Joe. The restaurant, J.C. Holdway, has been in the news lately, receiving the prestigious designation of “Recommended” by the renowned Michelin Guide in its inaugural regional publication of restaurants in the Southeast.
Chef Lenn is also a James Beard Award–winning chef. I thought it would be a great time to play this recording we made together before he opened his restaurant. I am an artist, and I wanted to paint a portrait of Uncle Joe as a kind of encouraging gift to Chef Lenn before the restaurant was created. You may have seen that painting, along with my portraits of Allan Benton, Eugenia Duke, Bill Best, and John Coykendall at J.C. Holdway. We also hear a recording by Fred Saucepan with memories from Janette and Joe Carter (children of A.P. and Sara Carter of the original band The Carter Family) as he shares their recipe for Chow Chow. And I share news of the Resilient Farmer Fund fundraiser concert tonight (Nov. 15, 2025) at the Paramount Theatre in Bristol, TN/VA. Doors open at 6, and music starts at 7 p.m.

We are living in a time when crime does not stop at the courtroom. It continues in headline, on social media, and in the public’s imagination.

Collect unlimited free verifiable CPD for UK Dentists here >>> ———————————————————————Valuations are shifting fast, and so are the rules that shape them. We sat down with dental practice sales expert Luke Moore to map the real market moves behind the headlines: why groups are winning a bigger share of deals, how cheaper debt is fuelling micro-consolidation, and where independent buyers are still paying up for the right assets. If you're weighing a purchase, planning to sell, or just want to understand what your practice is worth in today's climate, this conversation lays out the numbers and the nuance.We dig into the latest data points on deal sizes and EBITDA multiples, separating independent buys from group-led transactions and explaining why some NHS-heavy portfolios are dragging averages down while high-quality private and mixed practices still push toward the high-7x range. Geography and recruitment take centre stage: NHS valuations diverge sharply by region, with London and the South East often outperforming due to easier clinician hiring. We also unpack the thaw in Wales, where signals of a return to an item-of-service style approach and an uplifted hourly rate are drawing buyers back—alongside a sober look at how associate pay expectations could compress EBITDA.Policy is the wildcard. A widely flagged income tax rise could make holding less attractive than selling for many principals, especially as frozen tax bands and the 100k trap quietly raise effective rates. We walk through BADR's step up toward 18% by 2026 and what that means in pure cash terms, plus the practical timing options many owners are modelling to protect their net proceeds. On costs, a likely National Living Wage increase around 4% will ripple through pay differentials, nudging ancillary costs higher and forcing tighter discipline on margins.———————————————————————Disclaimer: All content on this channel is for education purposes only and does not constitute an investment recommendation or individual financial advice.

What does it take to scale construction innovation without losing the human touch? Recorded live at Autodesk University 2025, this conversation with Jason Waddell, Director of Construction Technology at Batson-Cook Construction, dives into how one of the Southeast's leading builders is bridging the gap between field and office through connected technology, culture, and collaboration. Jason shares insights on implementing new workflows, training teams on emerging tools, and creating a culture where innovation sticks. From healthcare builds to cutting-edge VDC practices, learn how Batson-Cook is using data, AI, and collaboration to future-proof construction, one project at a time.

On this episode of the Data Center Frontier Show, DartPoints CEO Scott Willis joins Editor in Chief Matt Vincent to discuss why regional data centers are becoming central to the future of AI and digital infrastructure. Fresh off his appearance on the Distributed Edge panel at the 2025 DCF Trends Summit, Willis breaks down how DartPoints is positioning itself in non-tier-one markets across the Midwest, Southeast, and South Central regions—locations he believes will play an increasingly critical role as AI workloads move closer to users. Willis explains that DartPoints' strategy hinges on a deeply interconnected regional footprint built around carrier-rich facilities and strong fiber connectivity. This fabric is already supporting latency-sensitive workloads such as AI inference and specialized healthcare applications, and Willis expects that demand to accelerate as enterprises seek performance closer to population centers. Following a recent recapitalization with NOVA Infrastructure and Orion Infrastructure Capital, DartPoints has launched four new expansion sites designed from the ground up for higher-density, AI-oriented workloads. These facilities target rack densities from 30 kW to 120 kW and are sized in the 10–50 MW range—large enough for meaningful HPC and AI deployments but nimble enough to move faster than hyperscale builds constrained by long power queues. Speed to market is a defining advantage for DartPoints. Willis emphasizes the company's focus on brownfield opportunities where utility infrastructure already exists, reducing deployment timelines dramatically. For cooling, DartPoints is designing flexible environments that leverage advanced air systems for 30–40 kW racks and liquid cooling for higher densities, ensuring the ability to support the full spectrum of enterprise, HPC, and edge-adjacent AI needs. Willis also highlights the importance of community partnership. DartPoints' facilities have smaller footprints and lower power impact than hyperscale campuses, allowing the company to serve as a local economic catalyst while minimizing noise and aesthetic concerns. Looking ahead to 2026, Willis sees the industry entering a phase where AI demand becomes broader and more distributed, making regional markets indispensable. DartPoints plans to continue expanding through organic growth and targeted M&A while maintaining its focus on interconnection, high-density readiness, and rapid, community-aligned deployment. Tune in to hear how DartPoints is shaping the next chapter of distributed digital infrastructure—and why the market is finally moving toward the regional edge model Willis has championed.

TCH is a ministry of Gospel Broadcasting Mission.GBM's mission is to broadcast the message of Jesus, in their own language, to unreached people groups and tribes world-wide.Thanksgiving, a National Holiday since 1863, it is said it traces its origins to the Pilgrims in 1621, and it came out of a deep-rooted sense of gratitude to God; and that gratitude was much more than a one day, one meal sort of thing. Today, it can seem the Holiday is tied more to family gatherings and meals and giving thanks is secondary. Maybe it's time for a “course correction” to get back to our roots of giving thanks, to God?!This month, Bob Russell, is helping us with an “Thanksgiving Season - Heart Check” in preparation for a more meaningful Thanksgiving. Bob Russell is a retired senior minister of Southeast Christian Church in Louisville, Kentucky, where he served for 40 years as “Southeast” became one of the largest churches in America. Stuff… the world advertises it, constantly, our family, friends, neighbors flaunt it, our culture idolizes it. You know, accumulating stuff, doing stuff, going to see stuff. Problem is, at its best, stuff is still only temporary and more-over its really not fulfilling in the long term. So, here's Bob to help us laser in on what's really real… To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/326/29?v=20251111

Song: Set Us Free Music by: Elise Witt   Notes: Elise is an inventive songleader and huge heart in Georgia, USA, whom I met online during the pandemic doing vocal improv with our shared teacher, Rhiannon... but I had been in contact with her before then because I wanted to sing a song of hers with my community chorus. Here, she has set words from the Rev. Timothy McDonald, calling us to the kind of integrity that gives freedom. I teach the song a capella, so you can sing with just my voice -- and then do it with piano at the end, so you can experience it that way -- and then if you follow the shownote links, you can sing it in Spanish and English with Elise, Judith & Lisset Rodés -- Lisset wrote the Spanish words... and it's a little slower, a little more legato than I sang it. I love it when there's a chance to compare different versions of the same song!   Songwriter Info: Elise's concerts of Global, Local & Homemade Songs™ and her Impromptu Glorious Chorus™ workshops create and connect singing communities around the world. Born in Switzerland, raised in NC, and living in Atlanta since 1977, Elise speaks 5 languages fluently and sings in at least a dozen more. The Elise Witt Choral Series features choral arrangements of her original compositions and she recently published All Singing, a songbook with 58 original songs including music notation, lyrics and chords, stories and photos. A founding member of Atlanta's Theatrical Outfit, Elise spent many years as a Resident Artist, visiting communities around the state of Georgia and the Southeast, teaching global music and writing local songs with students of all ages. From 2009 until 2024 Elise served as Director of Music Programs at the Global Village Project, a non-profit, special purpose middle school for teenage refugee girls in Decatur Georgia, for which she published Imagine A Circle: The Global Village Songbook, Using Singing and Songwriting to teach English for Multi-lingual learners. Elise currently gathers singers of all persuasions in joyous circles, and continues her global touring.   Sharing Info: Elise says: "I always love to share songs in oral (by ear) tradition and I'd love to hear from you how and with whom you share the song...
