Claire de Mézerville López welcomes Blair Kirby and Professor Mark Osler to the Restorative Works! Podcast. Blair and Mark join us to illuminate how restorative practices intersect with clemency work, storytelling, and systemic reform. Their conversation opens a window into the human impact of policies that often feel remote, revealing how small acts of recognition and repair can shift entire systems toward healing. Mark tells us about his commutation clinic at the University of St. Thomas School of Law, where he guides students as they uncover untold stories, meet directly with clients inside federal prisons, and learn how authentic narrative reshapes justice. Blair, a third-year law student and senior editor of the Journal of Law and Public Policy, brings her own lens as a former data analyst turned advocate. Her retelling of a first-degree murder clemency case, where three heartfelt apology letters were lost inside the corrections system, reveals how transparency and communication influence a victim's family's capacity to heal. Together, Mark and Blair describe how the commutation clinic operates at both the individual and systemic level, helping incarcerated people tell the fuller stories of their lives while also proposing legislative reforms that expand access to second chances. They highlight clients whose transformations demonstrate the power of rehabilitation, the role of narrative in restorative justice, and the responsibility of legal advocates to restore humanity, not simply file petitions. Blair grew up in South Korea and came to the US on her own at 15. After graduating from Macalester College with degrees in Applied Mathematics, Statistics, and Economics, she worked with government agencies, such as the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on epidemiology studies during the COVID-19 pandemic as a data and policy analyst in the Bay Area of California. She is currently a student at the University of St. Thomas School of Law (MN). Mark is the Robert and Marion Short Professor of Law at the University of St. Thomas, where he was chosen as Professor of the Year in 2016, 2019, and 2022. He also holds the Ruthie Mattox Preaching Chair at First Covenant Church, Minneapolis. His writing on clemency, sentencing, and narcotics policy has appeared in the New York Times, the Washington Post, and The Atlantic and in law journals at Harvard University, Stanford University, the University of Chicago, Northwestern, Georgetown, the University of Texas, Ohio State, UNC, William and Mary, and Rutgers. A former federal prosecutor, he won the case of Spears v. United States in the U.S. Supreme Court, with the Court ruling that judges could categorically reject the 100-to-1 ratio between crack and powder cocaine in the federal sentencing guidelines. Mark is a graduate of the College of William and Mary and Yale Law School. Tune in to discover how storytelling, advocacy, and courageous leadership move restorative justice from theory into action.

Justin Timberlake BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Timberlake has been in the spotlight recently following developments related to his ex-girlfriend Britney Spears and Kevin Federline's controversial memoir. According to multiple entertainment outlets including RadarOnline, Timberlake has come to Spears' defense after Federline made serious accusations against her in his book "You Thought You Knew." Sources close to the NSYNC alum reveal he views Federline's revelations as despicable, particularly given that Spears is currently at a vulnerable point in her life. An insider told RadarOnline that Timberlake "thinks it's despicable that Kevin's hitting her with all these terrible insults and sleazy revelations about their time together while she's at low ebb." The report indicates Timberlake still maintains a soft spot for Spears despite not being especially close these days, with sources claiming "seeing her suffer makes him sad." This sentiment comes as Federline's memoir has dredged up details about Spears' personal life, including allegations about her parenting and a controversial phone call she made to Timberlake the night before her wedding to Federline.On the professional front, Timberlake continues his entertainment ventures. He recently performed "Mirrors" live at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas as part of his concert tour, and he's set to headline the 2025 Lollapalooza South American festivals alongside Olivia Rodrigo and Tool.In business news, Timberlake took a significant financial hit when he sold his hometown Mirimichi Golf Course in Memphis for just five hundred thousand dollars. The course, which he purchased with an investment group in 2007 for eight hundred eighty thousand dollars, required approximately sixteen million dollars in renovations to make it environmentally friendly and aesthetically superior. The course had been recognized by Golfweek as one of the best courses you can play in both 2013 and 2014, but ultimately failed to generate the return on investment Timberlake had anticipated.Musically, 2024 saw the release of his album "Everything I Thought It Was," which featured the single "Selfish" and marked a collaboration with his former NSYNC bandmates and producer Timbaland. The album demonstrated his continued relevance in the music industry nearly two decades into his solo career. His estimated net worth currently stands at one hundred seventy-five million dollars, making him significantly wealthier than his former bandmates.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

This weekend The Jerusalem Post called for the Pope to condemn Nick Fuentes - the latest evidence that a man and a movement many would rather pretend was a purely online phenomenon has become a very mainstream matter. Conservatives are split between those who believe the likes of Fuentes should be buried and ignored, and those who believe the right is now dabbling in cancel culture - especially when it comes to Israel.Why did Fuentes get so popular in the first place? And is he causing more harm than good to the MAGA movement? Joining Piers Morgan to debate is former MMA fighter and Fight Back podcast host Jake Shields, ‘The Verdict With Ted Cruz' co-host Ben Ferguson, far-right activist Richie Black and Rabbi Shmuley Boteach.

Episode 265 brings together two AllTerra Central leaders — Scott Spears and Chris Mauldin — for a fast-moving conversation on UAVs, SLAM, reality capture, and the human side of geospatial technology. After the usual Geoholics banter and updates ,we dive straight into what surveyors are getting wrong (and right) about drone adoption. Scott and Chris tackle the biggest misconceptions around UAVs, break down the differences between American and Chinese platforms, and explain how handheld scanners and SLAM systems are resetting expectations for accuracy and deliverables. They also explore how AI is accelerating faster than hardware — and why keeping people, ethics, and trust at the center of tech adoption matters more than ever. Chris brings heart and honesty with insights on faith, family, and teamwork, while both guests highlight why surveyors are more essential than ever in a “shrinking world.” The episode closes with a look at what makes AllTerra Central unique and where they see UAVs and reality capture heading over the next five years.
