Book Title: Genesis: The Story of Apollo 8, the First Manned Flight to Another World Author: Bob Zimmerman Segment 6: Trans-Lunar Journey: Primitive Tech and a Shrinking Earth Apollo 8 launched on December 21, 1968, the first day of its six-day window. After testing systems in Earth orbit, Capcom Mike Collins gave the "go" for Trans Lunar Injection (TLI), firing the upper stage engines to propel them towards the moon. The spacecraft's computer systems were primitive, inferior even to a Casio digital watch calculator; ground control dictated long strings of numbers for manual entry. As they left Earth, Jim Lovell described the view as "like being in a tunnel," with Earth shrinking rapidly from 25,000 miles per hour. Crucially, the SPS engine, essential for lunar orbit and return, had no redundancy, making its firing behind the moon a tense moment of Loss of Signal (LOS) for Earth-bound observers. 1851

Book Title: Genesis: The Story of Apollo 8, the First Manned Flight to Another World Author: Bob Zimmerman Segment 7: Christmas Eve in Lunar Orbit: Earthrise and a Genesis Reading On Christmas Eve, Apollo 8 entered lunar orbit, firing its SPS engine behind the moon with no communication. The crew initially found the moon's surface disappointing, describing it as "a skull" or a "sandbox." However, they captured the iconic "Earthrise" photograph; Frank Borman took a black and white image, while Bill Anders took the famous color one after scrambling for film. During a historic Christmas Eve telecast—the first from lunar orbit, broadcast in black and white—the astronauts, after much deliberation, read the first twelve verses of Genesis from the Old Testament, aiming to share a message of goodwill to the world.

Book Title: Genesis: The Story of Apollo 8, the First Manned Flight to Another World Author: Bob Zimmerman Segment 8: Perilous Return: Navigation Glitch, Double Skip, and Ocean Landing Following the Christmas broadcast, the critical Trans Earth Injection (TEI) burn occurred behind the moon, relying solely on the SPS engine for their return. Jim Lovell famously announced, "I want to report that there is a Santa Claus," confirming the successful burn. However, Lovell later accidentally "cleared the gimbal," resetting the navigation. He expertly used a sextant and stars like Rigel and Sirius to reorient the craft, showcasing the astronauts' remarkable ability to correct errors. The return also involved a risky "double skip trajectory" re-entry into Earth's atmosphere at 25,000 mph, a maneuver only successfully performed twice before. They landed within three miles of recovery ships, though the capsule was top-heavy and flipped upside down upon splashdown. The mission was a testament to the risks taken, with NASA having been chastened by the Apollo 1 fire that killed Gus Grissom, Ed White, and Roger Chaffee in 1967, and the Soviets by Vladimir Komarov's death on Soyuz 1.  DECEMBER 19688

Changes to bluetongue restrictions mean farmers can transport vaccinated livestock from Wales into England without the need for a costly pre-movement test. Sheep and cattle that have been jabbed can be taken to a market within 12 miles of the Welsh border such as Hereford, Ludlow and Oswestry. Since the start of July, trade in livestock between England and Wales has been affected by restrictions designed to stop the spread of bluetongue disease. The midge-borne virus poses no threat to public health or food safety but can be fatal for animals like sheep, cattle and goats.Routine border checks on live animal imports from the European Union are to be suspended, ahead of the introduction of the UK's new SPS - or sanitary and phystosanitary - deal with the EU. The government said the agreement would cut costs and red tape for businesses, while speeding up trade in food. Synthetic fertiliser is one of the biggest costs for salad production, not to mention its environmental impacts. One big producer, G's, on the Cambridgeshire Fens says trials of a new composting technique called Johnson-Su has led to a reduction in fertiliser use as well as increased crop health. A new rural crime strategy in Wales has made heritage crime or damage to ancient monuments a particular focus. There are fears treasure thieves are targeting Wales' most ancient sites – in an attempt to unearth rare and valuable artefacts for the black market. Nighthawkers use the cover of darkness to sneak onto protected sites and use their metal detectors. Authorities say they receive up to 20 reports of nighthawking at Wales' most precious historical monuments each year. Presenter = Steffan Messenger Producer = Rebecca Rooney

Rosa Zauggs Leben nahm mit 18 Jahren eine drastische Wendung – ein Sturz vom Baugerüst führte zu einer Querschnittlähmung. Doch statt Grenzen zu sehen, entdeckte die heute 68-Jährige aus Heimberg (BE) neue Möglichkeiten: Sie fand neue Passionen, wurde Paralympics-Medaillengewinnerin und engagiert sich bis heute für Aufklärung und Inklusion. In dieser Folge blicken wir mit Rosa nicht nur auf ihren beeindruckenden Lebensweg, sondern machen auch eine Zeitreise: Wie war das Leben im Rollstuhl vor 50 Jahren? Wie waren die Anfänge der Schweizer Paraplegiker-Stiftung (SPS), damals noch in Basel später in Nottwil, und wie hat sich die SPS seitdem entwickelt? Hör rein und erfahre mehr über Rosas Geschichte, den Wandel der Zeit und ihre unermüdliche Lebensfreude. Rosa Zaugg gehört zu den Protagonisten unserer neuen Kampagne «Nie allein». Dank der Schweizer Paraplegiker-Stiftung erlangte Rosa neue Lebensqualität – und ist heute wieder für ihre Liebsten da.Mehr Infos zur Kampagne und zu Rosas beeindruckender Geschichte findest du hier: paraplegie.ch/nie-alleinModeration: Isabelle BelserDie Gönnervereinigung der Schweizer Paraplegiker-Stiftung (SPS) zählt 2 Millionen Mitglieder, die mit ihrem Mitgliederbeitrag das Leistungsnetz der Schweizer Paraplegiker-Gruppe ermöglichen und querschnittgelähmte Menschen unterstützen. Im Schnitt wird jeden zweiten Tag eine neu querschnittgelähmte Person ins Schweizer Paraplegiker-Zentrum (SPZ) eingeliefert. Mitglieder, die nach einem Unfall querschnittgelähmt und lebenslang auf den Rollstuhl angewiesen sind, erhalten 250 000 Franken – rasch und unbürokratisch.

Have you ever been in a room and sensed social dynamics beneath the surface before a word was spoken? Perhaps you've noticed (consciously or unconsciously) a subtle glance, a shift in posture, or a hint of tension between the lines. If so, you're not alone. This kind of social sensitivity is part of being a highly sensitive person (HSP). This episode of The Gentle Rebel Podcast is the first in a series that will explore the social dimensions of sensory processing sensitivity, the biological trait underlying high sensitivity. I'll be drawing on ideas from The HSP Owner's Guide, a mini-zine resource I created with Tuula, which is designed to help HSPs explore and discuss sensitivity as a normal aspect of being human. https://youtu.be/DFiJHxI9Qko What is Social Sensitivity? Social sensitivity refers to how highly sensitive individuals perceive and respond to emotional cues, interpersonal dynamics, and the tone of their environment. It's not a learned skill or a conscious choice; it's a normal variation in biological traits. More sensitive nervous systems naturally absorb larger volumes of environmental data and process it deeply. This means HSPs (those who score higher for sensitivity along a universal continuum), are more sensitive to social nuances and more susceptible to the effects of social stimulation. What is Sensory Processing Sensitivity? SPS is a trait found in 20–30% of the population (not just humans). It means that some are biologically wired to process more sensory input around us (environment), within us (internal), and between us (social). This trait can make someone more emotionally responsive, detail-aware, and easily overstimulated. Despite stereotypes and associations with the term, it's not often easy to tell a highly sensitive person by looking at them. You might even look calm and collected on the outside when your system is working overtime beneath the surface. Social Sensitivity and Early Learning The nervous system informs thoughts and feelings in response to a perception of safety or danger from cues and triggers. The way we interpret social data isn't always “objectively true", particularly if we grew up in unpredictable or critical environments. This pattern recognition can shape how we experience social settings well into adulthood. That's why intuition can be both a strength and a vulnerability for sensitive people. It's wise to ask: Is this gut feeling rooted in the present, or the past? Key Elements of Social Sensitivity in HSPs Heightened Awareness of Social Nuance More sensitive individuals might be attuned to micro-expressions, body language, tone changes, and subtle group dynamics. This can give them a natural ability to “read the room,” but it can also lead to emotional absorption and a tendency to take responsibility for others' discomfort. Not every HSP reacts the same way. Some feel compelled to help, others want to escape the weight of unspoken tensions. Personality, personal history, and social roles all play a part. Deep Emotional Responsiveness Many highly sensitive people feel others' emotions deeply. This allows for strong empathy and attunement, but also risks emotional contagion—carrying other people's emotional weight without realising it. Brain studies suggest that those on the more sensitive end exhibit increased activity in areas associated with emotional processing. But this doesn't mean you're doomed to feel overwhelmed by uncontrollable sources of emotion. With awareness and practice, it's possible to separate your emotions from those of others and develop healthy emotional boundaries. Rejection Sensitivity and the Need to Belong HSPs might be particularly attuned to signs of rejection or disapproval, whether real or imagined. Some develop habits of withdrawing or masking to avoid being perceived as “too much” or “too sensitive.” I've noticed a few people suddenly and unexpectedly leave the Haven community ...

In this episode of Rainy Day Recess, Cherylynne Crowther takes the reins to discuss the ongoing exclusion of Deaf and Hard of Hearing (D/HH) families in Seattle Public Schools. After a group of Deaf parents testified about enrollment barriers at the April 23 board meeting, many returned two weeks later to a district engagement event, only to find there were no interpreters. The district apologized, but the apology wasn't interpreted either.We explore the long history of inaccessibility in SPS along with the specific changes families are calling for now, including: enrollment at DHH schools for children of deaf adults (CODAs), consistent ASL interpretation, and a community-led DHH task force.Are we on a better trajectory at last?See our Show NotesSupport the workSubscribe to Rainy Day RecessFollow us on Substack and BlueskyContact us at hello@rainydayrecess.orgSupport us on PatreonSupport the showContact us at hello@rainydayrecess.org.Rainy Day Recess music by Lester Mayo, logo by Cheryl Jenrow.

The Platform That Isn't Just a Platform: Intermedia's 360° Formula for Service Provider Growth, AI is setting new standards for CX, and Microsoft Teams is everywhere—but few SPs are monetizing it effectively “You don't need to rip and replace. You don't need to lock in. You just need a partner who's truly in it with you,” says Patrick Sheehan, Vice President of Channel Development, Intermedia. As the channel moves into the heart of 2025, service providers are at a crossroads. Legacy platforms are draining resources, AI is setting new standards for CX, and Microsoft Teams is everywhere—but few SPs are monetizing it effectively. In a recent Technology Reseller News podcast, we sat down with Patrick Sheehan of Intermedia to learn how the company's 360-degree approach is helping partners solve those challenges without heavy upfront investments, long-term contracts, or technical headaches. “You don't need to rip and replace. You don't need to lock in. You just need a partner who's truly in it with you.” — Patrick Sheehan, Vice President of Channel Development, Intermedia What's Holding Service Providers Back? Sheehan doesn't mince words: today's service providers are seeing churn rise, ARPU fall, and win rates slide. It's not just voice—customers want integrated, AI-enhanced UCaaS and CCaaS, not siloed tools. Add in the need to market more effectively in a crowded space and support aging platforms, and many providers are facing a serious growth headwind. “If your platform isn't innovating fast enough to meet customer expectations—especially with AI and Teams—you're going to feel it in churn and margins,” said Sheehan. Intermedia: A Partner-First Playbook Intermedia has built its model around partner success—not vendor lock-in. That starts with a month-to-month, no-minimum-commitment agreement, enabling providers to enter the UCaaS and CCaaS space without sacrificing their brand, their network, or their business model. “Almost 95% of our business goes through partners. We're not here to compete—we're here to help them win,” adds  Sheehan. Service providers can white label Intermedia's platform, maintain their own PSTN footprint, or leverage Intermedia's national network. The tech stack—including UCaaS, CCaaS, a new Teams integration, and an AI-ready data lake—is 100% owned and operated by Intermedia. That translates into true speed-to-market and scalability. Fast Start, Full Support Launching with Intermedia doesn't take a year—or even months. With dedicated onboarding teams, SPs can be deploying customers within weeks. Intermedia supplies pre-configured plug-and-play phones, operational support, and guided productization. The result? Minimal friction, maximum velocity. The Industry's First Teams Integration—Built for SPs One standout development is Intermedia's embedded Microsoft Teams integration, which lets SPs offer a fully monetizable, branded Teams experience—a key differentiator in the increasingly Teams-centric workplace. “It's more profitable and more compelling than other options. And if you want, you can even source Microsoft licenses directly through us,” Sheehan explained. Marketing, Migration & Margin Intermedia supports partners with: Channel marketing experts who build and execute campaigns Sales engineers who assist in complex deal cycles Migration support to minimize churn and retire legacy platforms 5x9s SLAs and J.D. Power-certified technical support It's all part of what Sheehan calls the “360-degree approach to service provider success.” No single vendor in the UCaaS/CCaaS space offers this combination of product flexibility, technical enablement, and go-to-market support—all aligned around one goal: partner revenue growth. Ready to Kick the Tires? For SPs exploring new growth paths, Sheehan has a simple message: “You don't need to spend a year and a million dollars to launch something new. You can get started today.

Will Trump's idea of domestic investment come to fruition? EJ details how Trump's “loose cannon” attitude is the reason the markets have not spiked or fallen yet? He also details that this is free trade at its core! Why won't Canada drop certain trade barriers yet continue to allow China to walk all over them? Some TikTok talk. 110 - Will local school boards continue to promote DEI? 120 - Is Elon using DOGE for nefarious purposes? Some responses on Twitter for the side question.

What did Matt think of not-Jersey guy Cory Booker's 25 hour filibuster? How starved are Americans for real action by politicians instead of platitudes and when, if at all, will our leaders adjust? How will Republicans win non-Trump elections in swing/blue areas like in the Supreme Court race in Wisconsin? Do the Democrats have air with how close the race for the Mike Waltz seat was? What can we expect from The MAtt Rooney Show this Sunday night, some opposition? 145 - Lights out! 155 - Wrapping up the hour. 2 - Should we be shutting down Congressional voting because too many Congresspeople are voting by proxy?

Have you ever wondered, are highly sensitives neurodivergent? As an HSP, you’ve likely questioned this but haven’t arrived at a definitive answer. There is a lot of information out there on the internet, and a lot of it misinformed so it is important for us to address this by looking at the research and re-returning to what it means to be highly sensitive. Both the research on HSPs (lead by Dr. Elaine Aaron) and the neurodiversity social justice movement (lead by Judy Singer) emerged in the mid-1990s, and there are interesting parallels in their development. Human brains are all wired differently, leading to diverse interpretations of the world, and HSPs represent a unique variation within the neurodiverse population. We are uniquely wired to use our strengths in our business and leadership roles to make the world a better place. In this week’s episode, I begin a discussion on whether highly sensitives are neurodivergent or not. I revisit and share the definition of what it is to be highly sensitive, as well as the definitions for neurodiversity, neurodivergent, and executive functioning. All crucial things to keep in mind as we consider this important topic. I examine the research and how it relates to us as highly sensitives in business and leadership. Listen until the end where I share five key points to bring it all together so you can better understand yourself and your HSP neurodiversity. Also, be sure to tune into our next episode where we will take this topic further and discuss enhancing HSP neurodiversity and executive functioning. “HSPs are a subset of the population, a subset of the population who are high in a personality trait known as sensory processing sensitivity or SPS, sensory processing sensitivity or SPS. Those with high levels of SPS display increased emotional sensitivity, stronger reactivity to both external and internal stimuli – pain, hunger, light noise – and as a result of these personality traits and HSP tends to have a complex inner life.” – Heather Dominick Listen and Learn: 2:16: What does it mean to be a highly sensitive person 4:48: Why is it important to be reminded of what it means to be highly sensitive 5:35: What does it mean to be neurodivergent 6:58: How to define neurodiversity 10:13: What is executive functioning 12:53: How are highly sensitive people built differently “Differences are not viewed as deficits.” – Heather Dominick Links and Resources: Get your copy of Heather's book DIFFERENT: http://www.differentthebook.com/ Get your copy of the HSE Training Kit: Survive to Thrive: http://www.shiftfromsurvivetothrive.com/ Get your copy of the HSE Assessment and Success Guide: http://www.myhsetype.com/ Learn more about the Highly Sensitive Leadership Training Program: https://www.businessmiracles.com/highly-sensitive-leadership-training-program/ Learn more about this episode of Business Miracles at https://www.businessmiracles.com/207
