In deze aflevering gaan we even lekker de natuur in! Waarom is dat zo belangrijk?Live in de studio deze uitzending hebben we Willemien van Musschenbroek Greve, founder van Spriet. Finalist van de Haagse Vernieuwers Challenge en ze helpt mensen samen te ontdekken wat er buiten groeit om meer in contact te komen met de natuur. “Poep is de shit!", zegt Willemien. Ook hebben we Joris Broek, mede-eigenaar van BuitenInn Het Overveen. Een initiatief van vrienden en buren om een melkveehouderij om te bouwen tot een plek waar mensen samen dichter bij de natuur kunnen komen. “Zelfs afval wegbrengen mag een ervaring zijn", zegt Joris. He Ho, let's go! Stroop je mouwen maar op, we gaan aan de bak!
Human behavior experiments like the Loftus and Palmer misinformation effect, Stroop effect, and Milgram's obedience study reveal how memory distortions, attention failures, authority bias, social conformity, and cognitive biases influence human error. These psychological mechanisms explain why people misremember events, overlook critical details, follow flawed instructions, or make poor decisions under pressure. By understanding these errors—ranging from inattentional blindness to false memory creation—organizations can design better systems to minimize mistakes, improve decision-making, and enhance safety and productivity.To learn more, visit:https://humanerrorsolutions.com/Listen to more episodes on Mission Matters:https://missionmatters.com/author/ginette-collazo/
Waffen-SS var SS-statens militära gren som, från att ha varit en mindre styrka fungerande som livvakter åt Adolf Hitler i början av 1930-talet, vid slutet av andra världskriget hade vuxit till ett stort antal fältdivisioner med närmare 800 000 soldater.Även om Waffen-SS aldrig utgjorde mer än 10 procent av den tyska krigsmakten under andra världskriget har organisationen ändå tilldragit sig stor uppmärksamhet. Vad Waffen-SS egentligen var är inte helt enkelt att reda ut. Bilden av ett elitförband bestående av ariska män, uppfyllda av nazistisk ideologi, är missvisande.I detta avsnitt av Militärhistoriepodden ger sig Martin Hårdstedt och Peter Bennesved i kast med det på många sätt svåra ämnet om SS-statens militära gren, Waffen-SS. Svårigheten ligger i de många krigsbrott och massmord som soldater från Waffen-SS gjorde sig skyldiga till under andra världskriget. För många är Waffen-SS synonymt med ondska.Inom Nazityskland byggde Heinrich Himmler upp ett parallellsamhälle av vad han menade skulle vara en arisk elit. SS, en förkortning av Schutzstaffel, var inledningsvis ingenting annat än en samling män som skulle skydda den nazistiska organisationen och dess ledare, Adolf Hitler. Så småningom byggdes organisationen ut och fick en egen underrättelseverksamhet samt en egen vapengren, Waffen-SS. Till organisationen hörde även koncentrationslägren. SS blev på allvar den mäktigaste organisationen efter att SA tvingats till underkastelse 1934, efter en intern maktkamp inom naziströrelsen. SS organiserade och ledde Förintelsen.Waffen-SS växte avsevärt under kriget, och några av de bäst utrustade och slagkraftigaste förbanden i den tyska krigsmakten var SS-pansardivisionerna. Dock kantades deras krigföring av ständiga krigsbrott på i stort sett alla fronter där de sattes in. Andelen frivilliga och tvångsrekryterade inom Waffen-SS ökade, och vid krigets slut var ungefär 50 % av dess manskap icke-tyskar, rekryterade från Europas alla hörn – inklusive de nordiska länderna.Bild: SS-Brigadeführer Jürgen Stroop (i mitten) ser på medan bostadskvarter brinner under kampen mot det judiska upproret i Warszawas getto.

En nouvelle diffusion: 1. La raréfaction des insectes met en péril l'apport nutritionnel des écosystèmes Les insectes et les araignées jouent un rôle crucial dans les écosystèmes en fournissant des acides gras essentiels, notamment les oméga-3 et oméga-6, aux animaux comme les oiseaux, les reptiles et ou encore les petits mammifères. Une étude publiée dans Science (17.10.24) révèle que la raréfaction de ces espèces réduit la disponibilité de ces nutriments importants et menace les écosystèmes. 2. Une mission archéologique pour sauver les vestiges néolithiques du Lac d'Aiguebelette Situé dans l'Avant-Pays savoyard, près de Chambéry en France, le lac dʹAiguebelette est célèbre pour ses eaux émeraude et sa chaleur exceptionnelle. Mais surtout, il abrite des sites archéologiques datant du Néolithique, inscrits au patrimoine mondial de lʹUnesco, révélant la vie des premiers villageois dʹil y a 4700 ans. Des archéologues ont mené en octobre 2024 une campagne sous-marine pour étudier ces vestiges, menacés par le réchauffement climatique. 3. Lʹattention peut-elle être mesurée de façon fiable? Notre attention est constamment sollicitée, mais les outils que nous utilisons pour la mesurer sont-ils encore fiables ? Les célèbres tests de Stroop, Flanker et Simon, utilisés depuis des décennies en neuropsychologie, sont aujourdʹhui remis en question. Alodie Rey-Mermet, professeure à lʹuniversité Vinzenz Pallotti et enseignante chercheuse à UniDistance, examine ces méthodes et explore de nouvelles approches pour évaluer de manière plus précise le contrôle attentionnel.

Die onstellende nuus dat 28 renosters sedert die begin van die jaar in Namibië gestroop is, maak nog steeds opslae. McHenry Venaani, die leier van die amptelike opposisie, die PDM, is bekommerd oor die onlangse toename in stropery. Volgens Roberto Dirkse, Venaani se woordvoerder, het intelligensie na aan Venaani alarm gemaak oor die teenwoordigheid van kartelle in die land se natuurbewaringsgebiede. Dit sluit glo Chinese burgers en senior wetstoepassingsagente in. Dirkse het met Kosmos 94.1 nuus gesels.

Historian Kevin Impellizeri shares a story of a video game controversy to his friends: Kate Lynch and Andy Hunter. We continue our deep-dive into self-proclaimed "killologist" Dave Grossman starting a deep dive into how exactly Dave waged war on video games. We start we Dave's information-based battle, the types of organizations Dave felt comfortable calling comrades-in-arms, and how Dave might have started making his own research. Topics discussed include: Dave's less than savory associates, a detour to look at the board game Stroop (https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/212376/stroop), Phil makes a big announcement, and possible childhood trauma connected to Cooking Mama.

For his latest celebration of Spooky Season, Roger changes things up. First, he invites his comedian brother on to discuss this year's subject. And second, that subject is not a TV show but rather a theatrically released movie: 1986's Trick or Treat, the story of a teenage boy who brings his favorite heavy metal singer back to life by playing a record backwards. We discuss the cast, the acting, the effects, the plot holes, and of course the soundtrack. And many Simpsons and wrestling references are made. So have a listen. And then play it backwards...if you're not a wuss.

Formålet med Stroop-testen er at evaluere den kognitive interferens, der opstår, når informationen fra ordets betydning konkurrerer med informationen fra farven på blækket. Hvis deltageren har svært ved at undertrykke automatisk læsning af ordet og fokusere på farven, kan det indikere problemer med selektiv opmærksomhed og kognitiv kontrol. Stroop-testen er blevet anvendt i forskellige kliniske og forskningsmæssige sammenhænge for at undersøge kognitive funktioner og identificere eventuelle kognitive problemer eller lidelser.
Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2023.07.14.549093v1?rss=1 Authors: Kosciessa, J. Q., Mayr, U., Lindenberger, U., Garrett, D. D. Abstract: The ability to prioritize task-relevant inputs enables efficient behavior across the human lifespan. However, contexts in which feature relevance is ambiguous require dynamic exploration rather than stable selectivity. Although both cognitive flexibility and stability generally decline with ageing, it is unknown whether the aging brain differentially adjusts to changing uncertainty. Here, we comprehensively assess the dynamic range of uncertainty adjustments across the adult lifespan (N = 100) via behavioral modelling and a theoretically informed set of human neuroimaging signatures (EEG-, fMRI-, and pupil-based). As a group, older adults show a broadscale dampening of neuro-computational uncertainty adjustments. In support of a 'maintenance' account of brain aging, older individuals with more young-like neural recruitment were better able to select task-relevant features, also in a Stroop task with low perceptual demands. Our results highlight neural mechanisms whose maintenance plausibly enables flexible task set, perception, and decision computations across the adult lifespan. Copy rights belong to original authors.

Bien qu'il s'avère d'une puissance impressionnante, notre cerveau n'est pas hermétique à certains phénomènes trompeurs. L'effet Stroop, du nom du psychologue qui l'a découvert dans les années 30, fait partie de ces biais qui empêchent parfois notre cerveau de se montrer aussi performant qu'à l'accoutumée.Qu'est-ce que l'effet Stroop ?Ce phénomène psychologique, découvert par le psychologue John Ridley Stroop, met en évidence l'interférence qui survient dans la réaction face à une tâche donnée lorsqu'une information conflictuelle perturbe la capacité du cerveau à réagir rapidement et précisément.L'exemple le plus typique est celui des couleurs. Si vous devez identifier la couleur d'un mot, et que celle-ci ne correspond pas à ce qui est écrit (le mot « rouge » écrit en vert), votre cerveau va connaitre un délai supplémentaire pour identifier la couleur de l'encre utilisée.En effet, lorsque le cerveau détecte le mot « rouge », il y associe la couleur correspondante. Si l'encre est de couleur verte, cela produit une discordance dans le processus de réflexion que le cerveau doit détourner. Il lui faut alors surmonter son impulsion initiale de dire « rouge » pour pouvoir identifier correctement l'encre verte. Il n'est pas rare que les personnes amenées à effectuer ce test se trompent.Pourquoi le cerveau a-t-il du mal à traiter les informations conflictuelles ?Notre cerveau présente de grandes capacités, notamment parce qu'il peut réaliser des raccourcis cognitifs efficaces qui nous font gagner du temps. C'est aussi ce qui le limite en cas d'information conflictuelle. D'après une étude menée en 2000 par McLeod et McDonald, la partie du cerveau dédiée à la reconnaissance de mots est plus rapide que celle dédiée au traitement des couleurs. Le cerveau va donc instinctivement d'abord porter attention au mot qui est écrit avant de traiter l'information de la couleur. Pour cette raison, il lui faudra plus de temps pour déterminer la véritable couleur perçue si elle ne correspond pas au mot écrit.L'utilisation de l'effet Stroop de nos joursAu-delà des tests ludiques menés pour tester l'effet Stroop, ce phénomène s'utilise aussi dans le cadre d'évaluation psychologique et dans le domaine des neurosciences. Il permet de juger l'attention sélective et le traitement cognitif, par exemple chez les personnes atteintes de troubles de l'attention ou de troubles de l'alimentation. Il révèle en outre la capacité ou non de contrôle des impulsions chez les individus sujets à des problèmes de comportements impulsifs. Hébergé par Acast.

We're back with MASScast episode 2 and we're joined by Dr. Mike Zourdos to discuss several things which can impact your strength performance right now. In this episode we discuss the effect of mental stress on lifting performance, the effect of social media use on lifting performance, and post-activation potentiation, which is a tool where you can potentiate your back off sets' performance with a heavy top set. What constitutes mental stress? How do you minimise the negative effects of mental stress when it can't be avoided? What type of social media usage might be a bad idea before training? How can you set up your top sets in such a way to improve your volume performance in back off sets the most? Join us as we answer all these questions!

For the Season Nine Finale this week, we are taking a look back at the beginning of Catalyst. Chapman University Faculty, and Catalyst Co-host, Ryan Haley, and his Season's Eight and Nine Co-host, Mike Gravagno speak with former Catalyst hosts Taryn Stoop and Shannon Halverson about how the podcast came into existence, what its purpose was, and how it has evolved through the CCI 304: Creative and Cultural Industries in Practice Course. The four also discuss how their backgrounds in the liberal arts, both through education and work, have influenced what they are doing today. Gravagno who graduated from Columbia University with a BA in Creative Writing Nonfiction and went on to earn his MFA in creative writing from Chapman University in 2018, talks about how his education and work in podcasting has lead him to his current position as Senior Content Marketing Specialist at Workiva. Stroop who is also an alum of Chapman, graduating with a BA in Sociology in 2010, relates how her background and extensive work experience in the creative and cultural industries contributed to her career, and her current position as the Recreation Coordinator for the City of Tumwater Parks and Recreation Department. Halverson, who is currently the Program Manager for the Center for Creative and Cultural Industries at Chapman University and Stroop touch on early recording days of Catalyst, when Gravagno helped to record and produce the episodes. They look at how that format transitioned under Haley's course, and how the students now fully produce the interview sections of the show each season. The quartet wrap the interview with some musings on where they think the cultural and creative industries are headed in a post pandemic, AI filled future.

This is Garrison Hardie with your CrossPolitic Daily News Brief for Wednesday, April 19th, 2023. Let’s just start with on this day in history… On this day in history, April 19th, 1770 British explorer Captain James Cook first sights Australia. Writes in his log book that “what we have as yet seen of this land appears rather low, and not very hilly, the face of the Country green and Woody, but the Sea shore is all a white Sand.” 1775 American Revolution begins in Lexington, Massachusetts. The "Shot Heard Round the World" takes place later that day in Concord Minutemen Capt John Parker orders not to fire unless fired upon In the early hours of April 19, 1775, Capt. John Parker was alerted to mobilize the Lexington Company of the Middlesex County Brigade, Massachusetts Militia, in anticipation of a British 700-man force that was marching to Concord to capture provincial arms. By 2 a.m. Parker had mustered his company on the Lexington Green. The Lexington Company of militia was typical of the period. The youngest militiaman was 18, the oldest 63; eight fathers and sons served together. Most were farmers, while some were veterans of the French and Indian War. Just after sunrise Parker and his 77 militiamen stood in defiance of the British advance guard. "Stand your ground," Parker ordered. "Don't fire unless fired upon. But, if they want to have a war, let it begin here." Maj. John Pitcairn, commander of the British advance guard, ordered the militiamen to lay down their arms. Realizing that his company was outnumbered, Parker ordered his men to disperse. As the militiamen began to break ranks, a British officer fired his pistol. Without orders, the British troops opened fire. Although greatly outnumbered, the militiamen returned the fire. The battle went on for several minutes, all around the Green. When it was over, eight Americans lay dead and nine were wounded. 1775 New England militiamen begin the siege of Boston, hemming in the British army garrison 1775 Paul Revere, William Dawes and Samuel Prescott are captured by British troops riding from Lexington to Concord, Prescott escapes to warn Concord 1782 John Adams secures Dutch Republic's recognition of the United States as an independent government, a house he purchased in The Hague becomes America's first embassy 1874 Barracks on Alcatraz Island destroyed in fire 1909 Joan of Arc receives beatification by the Roman Catholic Church 1910 Halley's comet seen by naked eye 1st time this trip (Curacao) 1926 30th Boston Marathon won by Canadian Johnny Miles in 2:25:40.4 1943 Jews refuse to surrender the Warsaw Ghetto to SS officer Jürgen Stroop, who then orders its destruction, beginning the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising 1951 General Douglas MacArthur ends his military career And that, was on this day in history… Now let’s get to current news: https://www.military.com/daily-news/2023/04/17/us-sails-warship-through-taiwan-strait-after-chinas-drills.html US Sails Warship Through Taiwan Strait After China's Drills The United States Navy has sailed a warship through the Taiwan Strait in its first known transit since China carried out an encirclement exercise around self-ruled Taiwan. The U.S. 7th Fleet said the transit through the strait by the USS Milius on Sunday was routine. The cruisers “transited through a corridor in the Strait that is beyond the territorial sea of any coastal State,” the statement said. Last week China concluded large-scale air and sea drills in the strait in retaliation for Taiwan's President Tsai Ing-wen meeting with U.S. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy on April 5 in California. China said Wednesday that the exercises simulating an encirclement of Taiwan were intended as a “serious warning” to pro-independence politicians on the self-governing island and their foreign supporters. China protested the transit Monday, saying the U.S. transit was a “public hype” and that the Eastern Theater Command was ready at any time to “resolutely safeguard the country's sovereignty, safety, and regional peace and stability," according to a statement from the Eastern Theater Command's spokesperson Shi Yilu. China has stepped up its military pressure over Taiwan in recent years, sending fighter jets and navy vessels towards the island on a near-daily basis. After former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi visited Taiwan last August, China sent more and more military vessels over the midline of the Taiwan Strait, an unofficial boundary that had been accepted for decades. That increasing pressure from China has given greater attention to Taiwan globally. Taiwan's military confirmed a French navy vessel had transited the middle of the Taiwan Strait last week. However, it did not elicit a public protest by the Chinese military. China earlier had sanctioned the organizations involved with Tsai's visit in the U.S., including the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library, where her meeting with McCarthy and other members of Congress were held. It also sanctioned U.S. Rep. Michael McCaul, the Texas Republican who chairs the chamber's Foreign Affairs Committee, for visiting Taiwan. On Sunday, China launched a rocket carrying a satellite that dropped debris into waters north of the capital Taipei. While the satellite launch had no obvious military purpose, it disrupted travel, delaying flights. https://www.newsmax.com/newsfront/chauvin-murder-appeals-court/2023/04/17/id/1116489/ Chauvin Murder Conviction Upheld in George Floyd Killing The Minnesota Court of Appeals on Monday upheld former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin's second-degree murder conviction in the killing of George Floyd, and let his 22 1/2-year sentence remain in place. Chauvin's attorney had asked the appeals court to throw out the ex-officer's convictions for a long list of reasons, including the massive pretrial publicity. He also argued that legal and procedural errors deprived Chauvin of a fair trial. But the three-judge panel sided with prosecutors who said Chauvin got a fair trial and just sentence. Floyd died on May 25, 2020, after Chauvin, who is white, used his knee to pin the Black man's neck to the ground for 9 1/2 minutes. A bystander video captured Floyd's fading cries of "I can't breathe." Floyd's death touched off protests around the world, some of which turned violent, and forced a national reckoning with police brutality and racism. Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison, who assembled the prosecution team, said in a statement that he was "grateful we have a system where everyone, no matter how egregious their offense, is entitled to due process and fair treatment." "The Court's decision today shows once again no one is above the law — and no one is beneath it," Ellison said. A voicemail and emails were sent to Chauvin's attorney, William Mohrman. He argued on appeal that the trial judge should have moved the case out of Minneapolis because of extensive pretrial publicity and unprecedented security precautions due to fears of violence. But Neal Katyal, a special attorney for the state, argued that Chauvin got "one of the most transparent and thorough trials in our nation's history." Hennepin County Judge Peter Cahill sentenced Chauvin to 22 1/2 years after jurors found him guilty of second-degree murder, third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter. Chauvin later pleaded guilty to a separate federal civil rights charge and was sentenced to 21 years in federal prison, which he is now serving in Arizona concurrent with his state sentence. Local defense attorney Mike Brandt, who has followed the case closely, said he was not surprised that the appeals court affirmed Chauvin's conviction and found no errors that would have changed the outcome. Appellate courts give judges wide discretion and are loath to micromanage how they run trials, he said. He added that Cahill created a solid record to justify the decisions he made in a "high-pressure case where literally the eyes of the world were on him." The appeals court declined to address whether it was legally permissible to convict Chauvin of third-degree murder. The defense said a 2021 Minnesota Supreme Court decision in a different police killing case that clarified the definition of that crime meant the law no longer fit the facts of Floyd's killing. But the appeals court noted that the trial judge never formally adjudicated that conviction nor did he sentence Chauvin on that count. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/apr/18/fox-dominion-settle-us-defamation-lawsuit Fox and Dominion settle for $787.5m in defamation lawsuit over election lies Fox and the voting equipment company Dominion reached a $787.5m settlement in a closely watched defamation lawsuit, ending a dispute over whether the network and its parent company knowingly broadcast false and outlandish allegations that Dominion was involved in a plot to steal the 2020 election. The settlement came before scheduled opening statements and after an unexpected lengthy delay Tuesday afternoon just after the jury was sworn in. Neither party immediately disclosed the terms of the settlement other than the dollar amount, and attorneys for Dominion declined to answer questions about whether it requires Fox to issue a retraction or a formal apology. Opening statements were scheduled to start on Tuesday after a lunch break, but the judge and jurors did not return to the room until close to 4pm. During the more than two-hour delay, attorneys huddled and left the courtroom to convene in adjacent meeting rooms. After returning to the courtroom, Davis thanked the jurors for their service, and called the efforts by the lawyers on both sides “the best lawyering I’ve had, ever” in his career on the bench since 2010. The anticipated six-week jury trial was originally set to begin on Monday, but Davis, the judge overseeing the case, postponed the start of trial by a day as the sides worked to reach a settlement agreement. The trial in Wilmington, Delaware, was set to be a blockbuster media trial. Rupert Murdoch, the 92-year-old chief executive of Fox, was called to testify in the case, along with top Fox talent including Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity, Jeanine Pirro and Maria Bartiromo. Dominion, a relatively obscure company until the 2020 election, sought $1.6bn in damages in the case. It challenged repeated claims made on Fox’s air after the general election that Dominion switched votes, paid government kickbacks, and was founded in Venezuela to rig elections for Hugo Chávez. In the press conference Tuesday, Dominion CEO John Poulos called the settlement historic because of Fox’s admission that it was telling lies. https://townhall.com/tipsheet/katiepavlich/2023/04/17/the-climate-fanatics-have-a-new-food-target-n2622039 The Climate Lunatics Have a New Food Target Climate change lunatics who want to ban beef and force everyone to eat bugs have a new target. According to AFP news, climate "scientists" are targeting rice farming as a "dangerous," emissions heavy practice. They say flooded rice fields, which then naturally ferment hay and other plants, produce too much methane. According to National Geographic, rice is a main and key food source for 3.5 billion people. "Rice is a food staple for more than 3.5 billion people around the world, particularly in Asia, Latin America, and parts of Africa. Rice has been cultivated in Asia for thousands of years. Scientists believe people first domesticated rice in India or Southeast Asia. Rice arrived in Japan in about 3,000 years ago. The Portuguese most likely introduced it into South America in the 16th century," the magazine reports. "Today, the world’s largest rice producers are China, India, and Indonesia. Outside of Asia, Brazil is the largest rice producer. Rice grows in warm, wet climates. It thrives in waterlogged soil, such as in the flood plains of Asian rivers like the Ganges and the Mekong. "Deepwater rice" is a variety of rice that is adapted to deep flooding, and is grown in eastern Pakistan, Vietnam, and Burma." Meanwhile, Sri Lanka recently adopted a number of climate change policies on reducing fertilizer and caused a major food crisis. "In April 2021, then-president announced an abrupt ban on the import of chemical fertilisers to force the country of 22mn to embrace organic farming. The prohibition lasted only about six months, but analysts said the ill-fated policy not only stoked an economic crisis, it would leave Sri Lanka’s agricultural sector hobbled for years," the Financial Times reports. "Over the past 18 months, the country has become a cautionary tale for global agriculture. Vital inputs such as fuel and fertilisers are in short supply, with prices soaring. Yields from rice and other staples have halved in many areas and the once largely self-sufficient Indian Ocean island now depends on international aid to combat a hunger crisis." There's no doubt a new climate attack on rice will have a catastrophic impact.

He added that Cahill created a solid record to justify the decisions he made in a "high-pressure case where literally the eyes of the world were on him." The appeals court declined to address whether it was legally permissible to convict Chauvin of third-degree murder. The defense said a 2021 Minnesota Supreme Court decision in a different police killing case that clarified the definition of that crime meant the law no longer fit the facts of Floyd's killing. But the appeals court noted that the trial judge never formally adjudicated that conviction nor did he sentence Chauvin on that count. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/apr/18/fox-dominion-settle-us-defamation-lawsuit Fox and Dominion settle for $787.5m in defamation lawsuit over election lies Fox and the voting equipment company Dominion reached a $787.5m settlement in a closely watched defamation lawsuit, ending a dispute over whether the network and its parent company knowingly broadcast false and outlandish allegations that Dominion was involved in a plot to steal the 2020 election. The settlement came before scheduled opening statements and after an unexpected lengthy delay Tuesday afternoon just after the jury was sworn in. Neither party immediately disclosed the terms of the settlement other than the dollar amount, and attorneys for Dominion declined to answer questions about whether it requires Fox to issue a retraction or a formal apology. Opening statements were scheduled to start on Tuesday after a lunch break, but the judge and jurors did not return to the room until close to 4pm. During the more than two-hour delay, attorneys huddled and left the courtroom to convene in adjacent meeting rooms. After returning to the courtroom, Davis thanked the jurors for their service, and called the efforts by the lawyers on both sides “the best lawyering I’ve had, ever” in his career on the bench since 2010. The anticipated six-week jury trial was originally set to begin on Monday, but Davis, the judge overseeing the case, postponed the start of trial by a day as the sides worked to reach a settlement agreement. The trial in Wilmington, Delaware, was set to be a blockbuster media trial. Rupert Murdoch, the 92-year-old chief executive of Fox, was called to testify in the case, along with top Fox talent including Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity, Jeanine Pirro and Maria Bartiromo. Dominion, a relatively obscure company until the 2020 election, sought $1.6bn in damages in the case. It challenged repeated claims made on Fox’s air after the general election that Dominion switched votes, paid government kickbacks, and was founded in Venezuela to rig elections for Hugo Chávez. In the press conference Tuesday, Dominion CEO John Poulos called the settlement historic because of Fox’s admission that it was telling lies. https://townhall.com/tipsheet/katiepavlich/2023/04/17/the-climate-fanatics-have-a-new-food-target-n2622039 The Climate Lunatics Have a New Food Target Climate change lunatics who want to ban beef and force everyone to eat bugs have a new target. According to AFP news, climate "scientists" are targeting rice farming as a "dangerous," emissions heavy practice. They say flooded rice fields, which then naturally ferment hay and other plants, produce too much methane. According to National Geographic, rice is a main and key food source for 3.5 billion people. "Rice is a food staple for more than 3.5 billion people around the world, particularly in Asia, Latin America, and parts of Africa. Rice has been cultivated in Asia for thousands of years. Scientists believe people first domesticated rice in India or Southeast Asia. Rice arrived in Japan in about 3,000 years ago. The Portuguese most likely introduced it into South America in the 16th century," the magazine reports. "Today, the world’s largest rice producers are China, India, and Indonesia. Outside of Asia, Brazil is the largest rice producer. Rice grows in warm, wet climates. It thrives in waterlogged soil, such as in the flood plains of Asian rivers like the Ganges and the Mekong. "Deepwater rice" is a variety of rice that is adapted to deep flooding, and is grown in eastern Pakistan, Vietnam, and Burma." Meanwhile, Sri Lanka recently adopted a number of climate change policies on reducing fertilizer and caused a major food crisis. "In April 2021, then-president announced an abrupt ban on the import of chemical fertilisers to force the country of 22mn to embrace organic farming. The prohibition lasted only about six months, but analysts said the ill-fated policy not only stoked an economic crisis, it would leave Sri Lanka’s agricultural sector hobbled for years," the Financial Times reports. "Over the past 18 months, the country has become a cautionary tale for global agriculture. Vital inputs such as fuel and fertilisers are in short supply, with prices soaring. Yields from rice and other staples have halved in many areas and the once largely self-sufficient Indian Ocean island now depends on international aid to combat a hunger crisis." There's no doubt a new climate attack on rice will have a catastrophic impact.

Stroop, There It Is! While it's our current favorite catchphrase, it's also the title of one the best beers of the season, a collaboration masterpiece from Black Viking Brewing and Red Bear. We've been noticing that Black Viking is crushing it in the DC Beer scene, so Brandy got the scoop with owner Shaun Taylor. To Shaun, the beer business is what someone might call a “cool” business–everyone is having a great time all the time, right? But at the end of the day, it is a business and brand with many moving parts. Shaun shares the story of the Black Viking origin, where the name “Black Viking” comes from, and how Shaun plans on becoming the country's first black-owned, nationally distributed beer brand. In other news, one of the DC Beer hosts breaks tradition by imbibing in a hazy pale ale (gasp). We also give details on brewing events for Women's Month, upcoming panels, and much-anticipated beer releases!You don't want to miss the full interview with Shaun of Black Viking.

When you don't believe in god or hell or eternal damnation and think that sex and body positivity are important values, it can be really hard to find exactly the right words to describe what is going on in state legislatures all across the country. If these queer targeted and religiously minded policies really do reflect the prevailing culture of the land then I suppose while in Rome we can swear as the Christian nationalists do and goddamn this f*cking dumbass bigotry straight to hell. Journalist and friend of the show Chrissy Stroop returns this week to help us sift through the grandstanding, redraw the gerrymandering and work to undo the harm brought on by what the Human Rights Campaign is calling the worst year in recent history for state legislation attacking LGBTQ equality. Grab your reading glasses and a couple aspirin as we dig into the legislation, answer your calls and questions and proudly say “Gay!” plus what's turning us on this week on SecX.

In Civility in Uncivil Times: Kazimierz Moczarski's Quiet Battle for Truth, from the Polish Underground to Stalinist Prison (Peter Lang, 2020), Anna Machcewicz offers a powerful case study in the ethics and logistics of bearing witness in response to the two forces that brutalized Eastern Europe in the mid-twentieth century: Nazism and Stalinism. Civility in Uncivil Times is a biography of Kazimierz Moczarski (1907-1975), a Polish lawyer, journalist, and political prisoner. A major figure in the Polish Underground State in the final months of World War II, Moczarski is nonetheless best known for sharing a postwar Stalinist prison cell with SS general Jürgen Stroop, liquidator of the Warsaw Ghetto. After serving one of the longest prison terms in the history of communist Poland - eleven years - Moczarski reconstructed his conversations in forensic detail in a book published after his death under the title Conversations with an Executioner. Machcewicz's book makes a major contribution to the scholarship on Stalinist political imprisonment, while also illuminating the possibilities for serious civic engagement in post-Stalinist societies. Piotr H. Kosicki is Associate Professor of History at the University of Maryland, College Park. He is the author of Catholics on the Barricades (Yale, 2018) and editor, among others, of Political Exile in the Global Twentieth Century (with Wolfram Kaiser). Learn more about your ad choices.

Chrissy Stroop is a writer and scholar who, despite being an 'exvangelical', remains interested in, and critical of, evangelical culture. When she recently mentioned Bart Campolo in an article, we reached out to ask her if she wanted to have a conversation about how evangelicals think and talk about those who leave the faith. But the conversation took a different turn, becoming a friendly disagreement over whether or not we should try to form friendships with people who don't share our core values, or when there's a big ideological divide. Chrissy, a trans woman, thinks not, because she doesn't believe that friendships should involve attempts to change other people, while Bart thinks influencing others is a key part of relationships. Read Chrissy's article, Exvangelicals and the limits of evangelical empathy. And see her website at cstroop.com.
My guest for this podcast is Nathan Edmondson, the co-founder and President of EDGE. Eco Defense Group (EDGE) plays a pivotal role in the counter-poaching Rhino war in Africa. Utilizing the skill sets of American Tier 1 Operators, they train and develop counter-poacher and Ranger units combatting poaching and illegal wildlife trafficking in coordination with the office of defense cooperation through the consulate general and other official channels in Africa. The market for rhino horns in Southeast Asia drives criminal syndicates to increase their efforts in illegally killing rhinos. EDGE brings resources and opportunities to communities that are working to counter poaching. They are a 501c3 non-profit organization. We discussed the crime of poaching, what EDGE brings to the fight, and more. Enjoy.
