#cuttheclutter The sinking of Iranian warship IRIS Dena in international waters off the Sri Lankan coast in Indian Ocean has raised questions over the 'legality' of American action at sea. After the US attack,Sri Lanka allowed another Iranian ship to dock. Meanwhile External Affairs Minister Dr. S. Jaishankar today told the Parliament that India had granted docking permission to an Iranian naval vessel (IRIS Lavan) on 'humanitarian grounds'. #CutTheClutter Episode 1806 looks at the international law of naval warfare and what it says about the legality of the US sinking of an Iranian ship. ThePrint Editor-In-Chief Shekhar Gupta also explains why in the many laws of war, two Iranian ships found refuge from India & Sri Lanka, while one was sunk by US. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To Watch CutTheClutter: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnZ574bLX50 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To visit ThePrint Store: https://store.theprint.in/ --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Produced By: Mahira Khan

TOPICS: Iranian Ships Sunk Gulf of Oman Clinton's Epstein Talk with David Eon (LIVE WEEKDAY DAILY NEWS TALK) for Tuesday, March 3rd, 2026.
Ron Johnson was one of the most successful retail executives in America. He'd made Target hip. He'd built the Apple Store from nothing into a retail phenomenon. So when J.C. Penney hired him as CEO in 2011, expectations were sky-high. Johnson moved fast. He killed the coupons. Eliminated the sales events. Redesigned the stores. When his team suggested testing the new pricing strategy in a few locations first, Johnson said five words that explain everything that happened next: "We didn't test at Apple." Within seventeen months, sales dropped twenty-five percent. He was fired. And here's the part nobody talks about: Johnson had access to all the data. Every week, the numbers told the same story. Customers were leaving. Revenue was collapsing. The board was getting nervous. He could see it all. He just couldn't act on it. Because changing course would mean he wasn't the visionary who reinvented retail. He wasn't making a business decision anymore. He was protecting who he believed he was. That's the identity trap. And it doesn't just happen to CEOs. What if changing your mind didn't have to feel like losing yourself? Let's get into it. Why Identity Bias Looks Like Your Best Qualities The trap doesn't target bad thinkers. It targets good ones. Think about the entrepreneur who poured three years and her life savings into a startup. The data says it's failing. The metrics are clear. Her advisors are suggesting it's time to pivot or shut down. She has every analytical tool to evaluate this accurately. And she can't do it. She's plenty smart. The problem is that admitting failure would mean she's "a quitter." And she is not a quitter. That's not who she is. Johnson wasn't stupid either. He was brilliant. His identity as the retail visionary just happened to make him blind to the one thing that could save his company: the possibility that what worked at Apple wouldn't work at Penney's. He experienced his blindness as conviction. As leadership. And that's the disguise. Every other thinking error in this series, uncertainty, depletion, time pressure, social pressure, you can feel those happening. You know when you're tired. You know when you're rushed. But identity fusion is invisible from the inside. It disguises itself as your best qualities. The entrepreneur calls it perseverance. Johnson called it vision. The investor who won't sell a losing position? He calls it discipline. Your ego doesn't announce that it's taking over. It puts on a costume that looks exactly like your strengths. And your brain? Your brain is in on it. Why Changing Your Mind Feels Like a Threat When a belief becomes part of your identity, your brain defends it as it would defend your body. Challenge that belief, and your brain responds the same way it would to a physical threat. Not metaphorically. The same neural circuits that protect you from danger activate to protect you from being wrong. That's why arguments about strategy or direction can generate so much heat and so little light. You're not debating a position anymore. You're defending territory. And sometimes you defend it long past the point where the evidence says stop. A project you've poured months into. A strategy you championed. A hire you fought for. The data says cut your losses, but you keep going because walking away would mean all that time, all that effort, all that money was wasted. That's the sunk cost fallacy. And most people think it's about the money or the time. But it's not. Sunk cost is about identity. Think about that manager who spent eighteen months building a new system. The team knows it's not working. She knows it's not working. But scrapping it doesn't just waste eighteen months of budget. It means her judgment failed. It means she led her team down the wrong road for a year and a half. "I've invested too much to quit" sounds like a financial calculation. It's not. It's an identity statement. What she's really saying is: "If I quit, I'm the kind of person who wastes eighteen months of people's lives." The sunk cost isn't financial. It's existential. And suddenly you can see that every time you've held on too long, stayed in something past its expiration date, defended something you knew wasn't working, the force holding you there wasn't logic. It was your self-image refusing to absorb the hit. So how do you loosen the grip once you realize it's there? Three Warning Signs Your Ego Has Taken the Wheel Here's what to watch for. 1. Emotional Intensity That Doesn't Match the Stakes Someone suggests a different approach to a process you built. Not a criticism. Just an alternative. And you feel a flash of heat in your chest. Defensiveness. Maybe irritation. The reaction is way out of proportion to the suggestion. Pay attention to that gap. The intensity isn't about the process. It's about what being wrong would say about you. 2. How You Argue When someone pushes back on your position, watch what happens. If you find yourself attacking the person instead of engaging their argument, that's identity talking. "You don't understand our industry." "You haven't been doing this as long as I have." The moment you shift from "here's why the evidence supports my position" to "here's why you're not qualified to question it," you've stopped defending a conclusion and started defending yourself. The tell is subtle: you'll feel righteous, not curious. 3. The Evidence Filter When you're evaluating something objectively, new information can move you in either direction. But when identity is involved, watch what happens. You accept supporting evidence quickly, uncritically, almost with relief. Contradicting evidence? You tear it apart. You find flaws in the methodology. You question the source. You say, "That's just one study." When you're applying completely different standards depending on which direction the evidence points, that's not critical thinking. That's identity protection wearing a lab coat. How To Loosen the Grip So what do you do once you recognize the grip? Early in my career, I championed a technology direction that I was convinced was right. The evidence started coming back that it wasn't working. And I was doing exactly what I just described. Scrutinizing the bad data, embracing the good data, and getting irritated when people questioned me. It wasn't until a colleague looked at me and said, "You're not evaluating this anymore. You're defending it," that I realized my identity had completely hijacked my judgment. What helped was a shift in language that sounds simple but changes everything. Stop holding beliefs as part of your identity. Start holding them as a working thesis. The Reframe Listen to the difference between these two statements. First: "I believe this company will succeed." Second: "My working thesis is that this company will succeed." The first version fuses the belief to you. If the company fails, you were wrong. You made a bad bet. The second version builds in the expectation that your thinking will evolve. New data doesn't make you wrong. It makes you better informed. The Proof That colleague I mentioned? After that conversation, I started framing every strong opinion as a working thesis in my own head. Not out loud at first. Just internally. And the effect was immediate. I stopped feeling attacked when contradicting data came in. I started treating it as an update instead of a threat. The position I was defending? I reversed it completely. And the thing I was most afraid of — looking like I'd wasted everyone's time — never happened. The team was relieved. The Practice Next time you find yourself defending a position with more heat than it deserves, pause and restate it starting with "My working thesis is..." Then ask yourself: "What would I need to see to change this?" If you can't answer that question, if there's literally no evidence that could change your mind, that belief has become part of your identity. And your brain will protect it like one. The Door The goal isn't to be wishy-washy. Commit fully to your working thesis. Act on it with confidence. The difference is that you've built a door in the wall, and you've given yourself permission to walk through it if the evidence changes. That door is the difference between updating when you're wrong and doubling down until it costs you. Why Identity Is the Amplifier The identity trap doesn't operate alone. It recruits every other force we've covered in Part Two of this series. Facing uncertainty? Identity says, "You're not the kind of person who hesitates." Someone manufactures a deadline to pressure you? "Leaders are decisive. Act now." The whole room disagrees with your position? Identity whispers "I'm a team player" — or digs in with "I'm the one who sees what others miss." Identity is the amplifier. It takes every vulnerability from Episodes 10 through 13 and cranks up the volume. That's why we saved it for last. Everything else we've covered in Part Two? Necessary. But not sufficient. Because if you haven't dealt with your identity's grip on your beliefs, those skills have a backdoor that ego walks right through. And this is exactly what mindjacking exploits. I go much deeper into an article I wrote and in my dedicated mindjacking episode, links below. But the core mechanism is this: mindjacking doesn't just offer you convenient conclusions. It attaches those conclusions to who you are. "People like us think this." "Smart people choose this." Once a belief becomes a badge of identity, you'll convince yourself. No external persuasion required. From Seeing the Trap to Building the Escape Here's your challenge this week. Pick one belief you hold that you've never seriously questioned. Something professional. Your management philosophy. Your investment thesis. Your view on how your industry works. Something you'd describe as "just who I am." Now find the strongest argument against it. Not a straw man. The real, best case the other side would make. Sit with it. See if you can engage with it without your threat response kicking in. If you can? You've just proven that your thinking is bigger than your identity. And that is the most important skill in this entire series. If this episode shifted something for you, share it with someone who needs to hear it. And in the comments, tell me: what's a belief you held that you later realized was more about identity than evidence? I think we can all learn from each other on this one. Episode 15 is about designing your decision environment. Not tips. Systems. Structures that protect your thinking, so willpower becomes optional. Now you can see the trap. Next, we build the escape route. Make sure you subscribe so you don't miss it, and I'll see you in the next one. Endnotes — Episode 14 How To Quit Defending Decisions You Know Are Wrong "He'd made Target hip. He'd built the Apple Store from nothing into a retail phenomenon": Brad Tuttle, "The 5 Big Mistakes That Led to Ron Johnson's Ouster at JC Penney," TIME, April 9, 2013, https://business.time.com/2013/04/09/the-5-big-mistakes-that-led-to-ron-johnsons-ouster-at-jc-penney/. Johnson is credited with creating Target's "cheap chic" brand positioning in the early 2000s and subsequently designing and launching Apple's retail stores, which became the highest-grossing retail outlets per square foot in America. "We didn't test at Apple": Tuttle, "The 5 Big Mistakes" (cited in note 1). When Johnson's team proposed testing the new pricing strategy on a limited basis before rolling it out chain-wide, Johnson reportedly shot down the idea with this statement. The quote has been widely attributed in retail industry reporting. See also James Surowiecki, "Why Ron Johnson Is Struggling at J.C. Penney," The New Yorker (The Financial Page), March 25, 2013. The article is archived under The New Yorker's legacy URL format; for a summary of Surowiecki's argument, see Derek Thompson's coverage in The Atlantic and Quartz: https://qz.com/58487/jc-penneys-ceo-wasnt-the-one-who-killed-it. "Within seventeen months, sales dropped twenty-five percent. He was fired.": Multiple sources confirm these figures. Sales fell $4.3 billion in 2012 — a 25 percent decline — and same-store sales dropped 31.7 percent in Q4 2012, which analysts called "the worst quarter in all retail history." Johnson was terminated on April 8, 2013, seventeen months after taking over. See Tuttle, "The 5 Big Mistakes" (cited in note 1); Sean Williams, "This May Be the Worst Quarter in Retail History," The Motley Fool, February 28, 2013, https://www.fool.com/investing/general/2013/02/28/this-may-be-the-worst-quarter-in-retail-history.aspx; and the Ron Johnson entry at Wikiwand, which aggregates and cites the primary financial reporting, https://www.wikiwand.com/en/articles/Ron_Johnson_(businessman). "When a belief becomes part of your identity, your brain defends it as it would defend your body": Jonas T. Kaplan, Sarah I. Gimbel, and Sam Harris, "Neural Correlates of Maintaining One's Political Beliefs in the Face of Counterevidence," Scientific Reports 6, 39589 (December 23, 2016), https://www.nature.com/articles/srep39589. doi:10.1038/srep39589. Using fMRI on 40 participants with strong political beliefs, the researchers found that challenges to identity-linked beliefs activated the amygdala and insular cortex — brain structures involved in threat detection and emotional processing — while also engaging the Default Mode Network, associated with self-referential thinking. Participants who resisted changing their minds showed the strongest activity in these areas. Lead author Kaplan noted: "The amygdala in particular is known to be especially involved in perceiving threat and anxiety." A 2026 replication by an independent European team confirmed these findings. See Kossowska, M., Szwed, P., Czarnek, G. et al., "Neural Correlates of Belief Change in Political and Non-Political Domains Among Left-Wing Individuals Confronted with Counterarguments," Scientific Reports 16, 4895 (January 8, 2026), https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-026-35397-6. doi:10.1038/s41598-026-35397-6. "That's the sunk cost fallacy": Hal R. Arkes and Catherine Blumer, "The Psychology of Sunk Cost," Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes 35, no. 1 (February 1985): 124–140. doi:10.1016/0749-5978(85)90049-4. Available via ScienceDirect: https://doi.org/10.1016/0749-5978(85)90049-4. Arkes and Blumer defined the sunk cost effect as "a greater tendency to continue an endeavor once an investment in money, effort, or time has been made" and demonstrated across multiple experiments that the effect is driven by the desire not to appear wasteful — a fundamentally identity-protective motive rather than a financial calculation. "Sunk cost is about identity": The connection between sunk cost escalation and self-concept draws on Barry M. Staw, "Knee-Deep in the Big Muddy: A Study of Escalating Commitment to a Chosen Course of Action," Organizational Behavior and Human Performance 16, no. 1 (1976): 27–44. doi:10.1016/0030-5073(76)90005-2. Available via ScienceDirect: https://doi.org/10.1016/0030-5073(76)90005-2. Staw's central finding was that individuals committed the greatest resources to failing investments when they were personally responsible for the initial decision — an "intra-individual process in which people tend to act in ways to protect their own self-image." This reframes sunk cost escalation as identity protection rather than mere financial irrationality. See also Hal R. Arkes and Catherine Blumer, "The Psychology of Sunk Cost" (cited in note 5), whose findings complement Staw's by emphasizing the role of waste-avoidance norms tied to self-presentation. "To consider an alternative view, you would have to consider an alternative version of yourself": Jonas T. Kaplan, quoted in Emily Gersema, "Hardwired: The Brain's Circuitry for Political Belief," USC Press Room, December 23, 2016, https://pressroom.usc.edu/hardwired-the-brains-circuitry-for-political-belief/. This quote from the lead author of the fMRI study (cited in note 4) captures the identity-belief fusion mechanism described throughout this episode. Kaplan added: "Political beliefs are like religious beliefs in the respect that both are part of who you are and important for the social circle to which you belong."
Operation Epic Fury, the decisive U.S.-led military campaign authorized by President Trump, has achieved striking early success by crippling Iran's nuclear infrastructure, ballistic missile stockpiles, air defenses, and key Revolutionary Guard command centers shortly after launch. Executed in close partnership with Israel — whose parallel Operation Roaring Lion delivered precision strikes, including the confirmed elimination of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei — the joint effort combined overwhelming American airpower, stealth bombers, and advanced drones with Israel's deep intelligence and targeted capabilities to rapidly overwhelm Iranian defenses. Supporters hail the operation's progress as a historic demonstration of peace through strength, delivering devastating blows to the regime's terror apparatus and nuclear ambitions ahead of schedule while minimizing prolonged escalation.

Key Takeaways:Became a developer in crisis: Meg started as a high‑end residential project manager and was forced to become a developer when a partner burned through about $1M on unfeasible plans; she took over to protect investors.Sees value others miss: She identified under‑loved Nashville locations (riverfront, Gulch‑adjacent) early and was willing to buy where locals thought she was “overpaying,” which later proved very successful.Capital without a rich network: With no wealthy friends/family, she raised ~$5–6M for her first deal by cold‑calling and using CCIM directories and BiggerPockets—showing the importance of research, persistence, and real phone calls.Sunk costs and pivots: Scrapping expensive concrete plans, switching to cheaper stick‑over‑podium, cutting ~25% of the budget, and waiving her own developer fee turned a near‑disaster into a profitable condo project.Cycles and business model shift: The frothy early‑2022 boom (big flips, many employees) was followed by a painful downturn when rates spiked and equity dried up. That pushed her toward leaner teams, fewer project types, and more long‑term, cash‑flowing/hold strategies.Niching and design differentiation: Her “big unlock” is focusing on niches (short‑term‑rentable condos/flexible living, select industrial) and distinct but cost‑disciplined design (landscaping, thoughtful finishes, no trendy white‑box commodity).Leadership lessons: The hardest part was people and overhead, not buildings—layoffs, departures, and restructuring. Out of that came a small, high‑caliber, focused team model.Current focus – Modernist: She's now doubling down on flexible living condos (Modernist) that owners can use personally and also rent out for income—an institutional version of how she once Airbnb'd her own apartment to fund her start

Most investors think their biggest losses come from bad picks. They don't. They come from blind spots. In this episode, Andy Tanner, Corey Halliday, and Noah Davidson unpack the psychological traps that quietly sabotage traders and investors. Sunk cost fallacy. Anchoring to past prices. Averaging down to "get back to even." Overconfidence disguised as conviction. These aren't strategy problems. They're belief problems. You'll hear why price alone tells you nothing about value. Why holding a loser to avoid admitting you're wrong is often the costliest decision you can make. And why the real edge in trading isn't prediction — it's risk management. The conversation moves beyond tactics and into self-awareness. Because markets don't just test your capital. They test your identity. Are you managing risk — or defending your ego? Are you following a plan — or reacting to discomfort? This episode isn't about a new indicator or a better entry signal. It's about understanding how your own thinking can distort decision-making — and how disciplined investors structure their process to prevent small errors from becoming permanent damage. The market is rarely the enemy. Unexamined assumptions are.

One of the world's most concentrated areas to dive shipwrecks is in a remote island in the Philippines, Coron. Sunk in WWII by American fighter pilots, these ships have sunk relatively recently and therefore, are in great shape to explore. In today's episode, we cover the sinking of these wrecks, as well as what's involved with diving them. Julia has traveled to the Philippines for the sole purpose of diving these shipwrecks, completing her Open Water, Advanced and Nitrox certifications in Coron to do so. Visit our instagram: @thegirlsgetwreckedpod for pictures, videos, and updates on the jaw-dropping experience of diving these beautiful, eerie, mystical shipwrecks.

"If you really loved me, you wouldn't give up on me."Rob and Michele Reiner heard some version of that for seventeen years. And they stayed. Eighteen rehab programs. Tens of thousands a month in treatment. A guesthouse so Nick could live close. A film about recovery made together. Every door stayed open. Every line in the sand got erased.They never walked away. And now they're gone.This isn't about assigning blame for what happened — that responsibility belongs to one person. This is about the trap that keeps people standing in fires that are consuming them. The belief that presence equals protection. That love equals proximity. That walking away makes you the villain.It doesn't.Nick reportedly told his parents that refusing their suggested programs meant homelessness. That was the consequence. It never materialized. Every ultimatum softened. And some people will never hit bottom because someone's always there to prevent the fall. Your love becomes the cushion that keeps them from the crash that might actually wake them up.Three things keep you trapped. Guilt weaponization: "If you leave, I'll spiral" — making your departure the cause of their destruction. Sunk cost: you've given too much to quit now. And the fantasy of the final save: what if this was finally the moment they were ready, and you missed it?Rob brought Nick to a Christmas party because leaving him home alone felt too dangerous. A seventy-seven-year-old man couldn't go to a gathering without his adult son. That's not caregiving. That's captivity dressed as love.You're allowed to stop. You're allowed to set limits. You're allowed to survive.The Reiners stayed until there was nowhere left to stand. You don't have to make the same choice.#RobReiner #NickReiner #MicheleSingerReiner #ReinerCase #TrueCrimeToday #TrueCrime #Enabling #WalkingAway #AddictionFamily #FamilyTragedyJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Eighteen rehab stints. Millions of dollars. A guesthouse on the property. A movie made together about healing. Rob and Michele Reiner gave Nick everything for seventeen years.They never walked away. And they're dead.This episode isn't about blame — what happened is the responsibility of one person alone. But it's about a question that haunts everyone who's ever loved someone dangerous: when does staying become its own form of destruction?We're taught that love means presence. That walking away is abandonment. That good people don't give up. But "unconditional love" got twisted somewhere into "unconditional proximity." They're not the same thing. You can love someone from a distance. You can love someone you'll never see again. You can love someone and still refuse to let them take you down with them.Nick reportedly told his parents that refusing their treatment plans meant homelessness. That was the line. But it never held. Every consequence dissolved. Every ultimatum evaporated. Some people never hit bottom because someone's always there to catch them — and your outstretched hands become the floor preventing the fall that might actually save them.The trap has three parts. Guilt weaponization: your departure becomes the cause of their destruction. Sunk cost: you've invested too much to walk away now. The final save fantasy: what if you leave right when they were finally ready?Rob Reiner brought Nick to a Christmas party because he was reportedly afraid to leave him home alone. A seventy-seven-year-old man couldn't attend a holiday event without his thirty-two-year-old son in tow. That's not supervision. That's hostage behavior.You're allowed to stop. Walking away isn't betrayal — it's the recognition that your presence isn't saving anyone. The Reiners stayed until there was nowhere left to stand.You don't have to.#RobReiner #NickReiner #MicheleSingerReiner #ReinerMurders #TrueCrime #Enabling #WalkingAway #AddictionFamily #Codependency #HiddenKillersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

This week on the Jewellers Academy podcast, host Anna Campbell is joined by website designer and e-commerce specialist Helen Rawlinson (HR Digital Design) to talk about when and why jewellers should move from platforms like Etsy to their own website. They explore how third-party marketplaces have changed over the years - becoming more crowded, more price-driven, and harder for genuine handmade businesses to stand out - and why relying on 'being discovered' on these platforms is far less realistic than it once was. Helen talks about the positives of having your own website, including giving you control over your branding, your customer experience, and the story you tell about your work and pricing. They discuss the long-term value of owning your customer relationships and data, especially through email marketing, so you can build repeat sales, credibility, and a sustainable jewellery brand. The episode also covers practical considerations like platform choice and why 'done is better than perfect' when it comes to getting your site live and improving it over time. 02:04: Introduction and today's topic 03:13: Meet Helen from HR Digital Design 05:14: The downside of third-party platforms 07:43: Why customer experience matters 08:40: Price comparisons on marketplaces 10:02: Your website as the hub of your business 10:47: Why handmade shouldn't compete on price 12:15: Educating customers on your own site 15:38: Why discovery on Etsy is harder now 17:02: Marketplace fees explained 19:30: Website costs as an investment 21:00: Reviews, stress, and lack of control 24:00: Owning your customer data 26:10: The power of email marketing 28:54: Social media vs email for sales 30:18: Repeat customers and loyalty 32:39: Credibility and trust online 34:26: You don't need huge sales volumes 35:05: Branding and design on your website 39:43: Done is better than perfect 42:44: Shopify vs Squarespace 48:24: Sunk cost bias and getting stuck on Etsy 49:25: The reality of running your own site 51:40: How Helen helps clients 54:20: Where to find Helen 55:10: Closing thoughts About Helen I'm Helen, the founder of HR Digital Design, and I work primarily with ambitious and growing small businesses who are ready to take their online presence a bit more seriously. A lot of my work is with creatives who've grown their businesses on platforms like Etsy or on home-made websites and then reach a point where they want more control, more stability, and a website that actually supports their business rather than complicating it. I build and advise on websites that are practical, sustainable and designed to grow with the business, without unnecessary jargon or pressure to do everything at once.

Chinese conservationists have worked hard to protect the critically endangered Chinese alligator, creating new habitats for them after significant alterations made most of their Yangtze River home unsuitable. Thanks to the power of GPS technology, we now have some fascinating insights into how they are using the wetlands they are being reintroduced to, and it's mixed news.

John Miles explains why burnout and disconnection often stem from one overlooked issue: mattering. He shares how chasing achievement without meaning leads to emptiness, and why intentional choices—especially in relationships—restore fulfillment.

Shiur given by Rabbi Yosef Fishman on Parsha. Shiur recorded in Yeshivas Ohr Reuven, Monsey, NY.
Torjai Endre, a nyugdíjas pszichológus úgy dönt, hogy elköltözik Magyarországról egy trópusi szigetre, hátha így megszűnik majd az egész életét végigkísérő szorongása. De az élet persze nem így működik, és az ember nem menekülhet el a világ másik végére a nyomasztásai elől. Erről a felismerésről és a felismerést kísérő belső küzdelemről szól Barnás Ferenc ősszel megjelent regénye, a Most és halála óráján, ami a Könyves Magazin tavalyi listáján az év legjobb könyve lett, és amivel Barnás elnyerte a Mészöly-díjat is. A lassan egy évtizede Dél-Kelet-Ázsiában élő Barnás Ferenccel a regénye mellett Mészöly és Hajnóczy prózájáról, külső és belső káoszról, a fájdalom szerepéről és az ősszületésről is beszélgettünk a Nem rossz könyvek legújabb epizódjában. 00:00 Vendégünk Barnás Ferenc, aki a Mészöly Miklós-díj átvétele miatt volt épp Magyarországon, így rögtön kérdeztünk arról, hogy mit jelent számára Mészöly életműve, de bőven szóba kerül Hajnóczy Péter is. „Azt a fajta irodalmat tartom nagyra, ami új dolgokat tud mondani arról, amit úgy hívunk, hogy élet.” 11:00 Mi köti össze ezt az életművet? A regények krízisekből indulnak, melyek időnként nagyobb krízisekbe torkollnak, máskor meg a probléma megoldhatatlanságának belátásába. És miért éri meg egy időre elmenni Magyarországról akkor is, ha amúgy nagyon szeretünk itt élni. 19:30 Hogyan határozza meg az írás helye a regényt magát, és mit tett hozzá Dél-Kelet-Ázsia ehhez a regényhez? Alkalmazkodás a trópusokhoz. A jó mondat sosem teljesen az író érdeme, olyan állapot ez, amikor az ember jelen van a mondatban, és a mondat jelen van benne. 27:30 Óceán, mint a regény szereplője, és az ősszületés tere. 30:00 Idő és időtlenség a regényben és a halál pillanata, amikor nem tudjuk, hova megyünk át. És mi van még ott az ész mellett a nagy drámai pillanatokban? 36:20 Fájdalom, mint az autentikus tapasztalat lehetősége. Alázat a saját fájdalmaddal szemben és a fájdalom, ami rendet teremt. „Abban a pillanatban, ahogy azt mondjuk, biztos tudásunk van, onnantól kezdve könnyen válik veszélyessé az ember.” 45:10 Menekülés és a megismerés utáni vágy. „Abban a pillanatban, ahogy azt mondjuk, biztos tudásunk van, onnantól kezdve könnyen válik veszélyessé az ember.” 55:00 Vallás, szent szövegek és az archaikus tudás szerepe. 61:00 Három könyv Barnás Ferenc ajánlásában: Clarice Lispector - Too Much of Life, Marnó János - Hazatűnés és Nemes Z. Márió - Irgalom és számonkérés. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Is everything a cult?

The stock market is broken! Today we talk about a broad range of economic, market, and behavioral topics, beginning with the cognitive bias of sunk costs and how it affects personal decisions, investing, and business choices, emphasizing the importance of recognizing losses and cutting them early. We also explore recent market signals, including distress in the credit and auto-loan markets, and the K-shaped economy. We also critique media and policy narratives, pointing to propaganda around climate change and the pivot to nuclear energy. It's important to be aware and prudent in your observations in uncertain times. We also remark on the rising cost of living, currency devaluation (the end of the penny), and market performance trends. We discuss... Sunk cost bias was illustrated with examples in plumbing repairs, investing in stocks like QQQ, and hiring ineffective marketers in business. People often continue bad relationships or investments due to the psychological discomfort of admitting mistakes. Non-decisions are still decisions, and it's important to consciously choose a path rather than defaulting to inaction. The conversation shifted to propaganda in media and politics, including discussions about global warming and COVID messaging. Nuclear energy is the only scalable solution for energy needs if climate change is real, and that AI and technology interests influenced the shift in media focus. We discussed deliberate and coincidental market messaging, citing examples of Fed statements and past financial crises like 2008. Michael Burry's recent fund positions and put options on Nvidia and Palantir were discussed as a signal for investors to pay attention, though not necessarily to follow blindly. Extreme caution in investing is recommended, particularly in markets or sectors one does not fully understand, such as the stressed auto-loan market. Signs of market stress were highlighted, including unusual moves in the SOFR rate and subprime auto-loan distress, though not on the scale of the 2008 mortgage crisis. The K-shaped economy was explained, where asset holders benefit from price inflation while those without assets see income stagnation and rising expenses. Rising housing costs and mortgage challenges were linked to declining fertility rates and generational effects on college and workforce participation.

In 1958, the British oil tanker, SS San Flaviano, was sunk in the harbour of Balikpapan, Indonesia, while a rebellion was underway against President Ahmed Sukarno. It's reported the bomb was dropped by a CIA pilot authorised to aid the rebels, but confirming their involvement has required some investigating. Megan Jones has been looking into it and speaking to Joseph McCorry who was forced to evacuate the ship after seeing the bomb drop.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.

Paul Hendricks is the Executive Director of the Conservation Alliance, a coalition of more than 270 businesses working together to protect wild places across North America. Founded nearly four decades ago by Patagonia, REI, The North Face, and Kelty, the Conservation Alliance has grown into one of the most important forces in conservation—pooling dollars, influence, and a collective business voice to support grassroots campaigns that keep public lands and waters healthy for generations to come. At a time when those places are under constant pressure, the Conservation Alliance is showing that businesses don't have to sit on the sidelines—they can be a powerful part of the solution. Paul's own path to this role winds through some of the most interesting corners of the conservation and environmental worlds. After earning a few advanced degrees, he started at Global Greengrants Fund, working with grassroots activists around the globe. He then joined Patagonia's legendary environmental team, where he learned firsthand how a company can weave values into every decision. From there he helped build sustainability programs at Rivian, tackling the climate footprint of a car company from the inside. And woven through all of that is a through-line of humility, service, and adventure. In this conversation, Paul and I talk about the roots of his love for the outdoors, the mentors and lessons that shaped his career, and what it's like to step into the hot seat as a first-time executive director. We dig into the Conservation Alliance's mission and why business advocacy matters, the current threats facing public lands, and how Paul stays grounded in turbulent times. We also talk about family, leadership, failure, and why hope is not just possible but necessary. It's a candid, thoughtful conversation with someone who's not only shaping the future of conservation, but doing it with humility, persistence, and just enough humor to keep it human. I've had the privilege of knowing Paul for almost 15 years–we met when he first moved to Colorado, became running and climbing partners, and have logged more hours together in the mountains and had more meaningful conversations than I can count. Watching him grow into this role has been inspiring, both for the positions he's held and for the way he's carried himself along the way. --- Paul Hendricks The Conservation Alliance Full episode notes and links: https://mountainandprairie.com/paul-hendricks/ --- TOPICS DISCUSSED: 2:37 – Intro, Ed's one running partner 4:03 – How the outdoors has shaped Paul's career 6:48 – Plan post-college 12:41 – Sunk-cost fallacy 14:22 – Global Greengrants Fund 17:05 – Learning from Rick Ridgeway 20:23 – Lessons from Patagonia 24:25 – Ready for a new challenge 30:00 – Laid off at Rivian 36:02 – Being in charge 38:01 – The Conservation Alliance history 43:07 – TCA within public lands threats 48:58 – What's missing from the public lands story? 51:49 – Paul's role as a leader 56:14 – Role models 59:04 – Getting outdoors now 1:01:10 – Book recs 1:03:09 – 1% for the Planet collab 1:05:14 – Wrapping up --- ABOUT MOUNTAIN & PRAIRIE: Mountain & Prairie - All Episodes Mountain & Prairie Shop Mountain & Prairie on Instagram Upcoming Events About Ed Roberson Support Mountain & Prairie Leave a Review on Apple Podcasts
